MCU14/0056 Information Response Cover Letter

Item 40 –

Provide an updated town planning report and architectural drawings that include the recommendations of the acoustic
report, with the architectural drawings to include noise barriers and a floor layout for the site manager’s building.
Response:

Refer to Proposal plans at Attachment A. Recommendations from the Acoustic Report are able to be included as
conditions of any approval by Council.



Item 41 –

Provide details of how the Manifest Quantity Workplace (MQW) will comply with State interests (Workplace Health and
Safety Queensland) for the design and operation of the site.
Response:

Service station design detail relevant to this stage of the development is provided within Plan 14004- DA 14 A within
Attachment A. Workplace Health and Safety matters are dealt with under separate State Legislation and are not a
relevant consideration for an application of this nature but may be conditioned should Council consider appropriate.



Item 42 –

Please provide detailed design information of the service station, including the following as a minimum:
a) Detailed drawings showing the proposed design of service station including underground and/or above ground
storage capacity of flammable and combustible liquids on site
b) Maximum storage volume of storage tanks and type of fuel
c) Describe the type of storage tanks (e.g. double containment FRP etc.)
d) Location of tanks & distances to protected works, including site plan etc.
e) Leak detection methods proposed (e.g. statistical inventory analysis, automatic tank gauging, electronic line leak
detection, safe suction etc) - at least 2 methods capable of detecting a leak at a rate of 0.76 litres per hour or more with at
least 95% accuracy and a probability of false detection of 0.05 or less
f) proposed ground water monitoring wells and location
g) vapour recovery design proposed (Type 1and/or Type 2)
h) clarify the description of the forecourt spillage containment system and drip line using drawings and contours etc (i.e
the system to capture all spilt fuels and other contaminants as a result of the dispenser pumps operation and bulk delivery
filling of the underground/above ground tanks)
i) describe the capacity of forecourt containment vessel (i.e. minimum 10,000 l sump/tank with no connections to
stormwater and with/without connections to sewer). It appears that the Puraceptor system is also to be used to capture
flows/spills from the fuel dispensing area as well as the blind sump/tank) where it is stated in Item e Service Station
Treatment - “It is proposed that a SPEL Puraceptor containment system be installed to capture and retain flows from the
fuel dispensing areas”.
j) clarify the use of the Puraceptor system for treatment of stormwater runoff from uncovered (non-fuel dispensing areas)
of the service station to remove contaminants prior to discharge to stormwater system
k) any sewer pre-treatment devices/options (if any) consistent with Unitywater’s Trade Waste Policy and/or advice
l) regulated waste removal and disposal options
m) any other information that supports environmental protection including the protection of the water supply catchment
