MCU14/0056 Information Response Cover Letter

Item 38 –

Please demonstrate that discharge from the self-storage area bioretention basin will have a legal point of discharge and
will not be retreated or overload another proposed bioretention basin.

Item 39 –

Provide an amended Acoustic Assessment addressing the following:

(a) Provide further information about the traffic noise model, including the extent of the model, ground absorption co-
efficient, buildings included, grid spacing for noise contour plots.
(b) Re-plotting of the traffic noise levels contours showing 60 dBA L10 (18 hour) scale and increments of 1 dB.
(c) Provide further information to demonstrate that the proposed park cabin design may satisfy the MP4.4 noise criteria
for a 6.0m high boundary acoustic barrier.
(d) Provide information to demonstrate compliance for the whole pool area with the passive recreation noise criterion.
(e) Conduct testing to determine a representative caravan outside-to-inside field transmission loss with natural
ventilation, and then determine a suitable external façade corrected noise criterion based upon the recommended mobile
accommodation noise criteria noted in Section 2.1.1 above.
(f) Provide further information to demonstrate that the mobile accommodation will comply with the determined façade
corrected noise criterion.
(g) Provide an assessment of sleep disturbance due to road traffic for the park cabins and mobile accommodation areas,
based upon the sleep disturbance criterion of Section 2.1.1 above.
(h) Provide an assessment of the noise impact of commercial uses upon the tourist park accommodation during the day,
evening and night periods.
(i) Review and confirm the applicable noise criteria levels in Tables 5.3 and 5.4 of the acoustic report.
(j) Provide a detailed description of the noise model used to assess the impact of the commercial uses, including source
locations, buildings included, car wash roof, receptor locations.

(k) Provide predictions of cumulative commercial noise impacts for various operating scenarios to confirm compliance
with the criteria the Ferrell Street receptors for the commercial uses on the development site.
 (l) Provide an assessment of the noise impact of the changed traffic volumes on Ferrells Road to the existing sensitive
receptors in this road.
(m) Provide further information regarding noise character adjustment for noise from commercial uses, including
reversing alarms.
(n) Provide a more detailed acoustic assessment of vehicle movements and noise emissions on the site, particularly at
night.
(o) Provide a more detailed explanation of the reasons for the height and length of the noise barrier along the Ferrells
Road site boundary.
(p) Provide further information to support the noise mitigation measures listed for control of commercial uses noise
emissions upon Ferrell Street receptors.
(q) Specify maximum sound power levels/acoustic performance requirements for all mechanical plant (including the
carwash/vacuum facility) based upon the cumulative noise budget required to achieve compliance for commercial uses
for Ferrell Street receptors and tourist park cabins and mobile accommodation.
(r) Provide a draft noise management plan that covers, as a minimum, authority, training, expectations, maintenance of
noise mitigation measures, vehicle speed management on site, patron behaviour and noise control, and complaints.
