SUPERSEDED -Decision Notice - OPW22 0299 [As Published] · OPW22/0299

                      Council may request further controls to be installed should the implemented measures be
                      found inefficient.
               38.    The erosion and sediment control measures must be designed, installed and maintained in
                      accordance with the supervising engineer instructions and the current best practice
                      standards * (Refer to Advisory Note).
               39.    The developer must ensure non-essential exposure of soil is prevented by restricting the
                      extent of disturbance and minimising the duration of soil exposure to adverse weather
                      conditions and effectively turf, cover or stabilise any disturbed area without delay and prior
                      to rainfall occurring.
               40.    The developer must ensure sediment does not leave the site or enter onto adjoining
                      properties or Council’s drainage system due to surface runoff or on tyres of vehicles and/or
                      machinery. It is essential to implement appropriate approved erosion and sediment control
                      measures throughout the site during all phases of construction including vehicle shakedown
                      pad/grid (or similar) at the access to the construction site. Where sediments or other
                      contaminants are deposited on a road, they must be removed so as not to enter Council’s
                      drainage system or waterways.
               41.    Prior to the completion of the development and commencement of use, all site surfaces must
                      be effectively stabilised using methods which have achieved effective short-term stabilisation
                      and which will continue to achieve effective stabilisation in the medium to long-term. For the
                      purpose of this condition, an effectively stabilised surface is defined as one that does not, or
                      is not likely to result in visible evidence of soil loss caused by sheet, rill or gully erosion or
                      lead to sedimentation, or lead to water contamination.
                      Landscape
                      Retention of Existing Trees and Vegetation
               42.    All trees and vegetation identified for retention must be protected in accordance with AS
                      4970, Protection of trees on development sites.
               43.    A qualified person * must be engaged for the duration of the works to:
                      a.      Ensure works are carried out in accordance with the approved Arborist Report
                      b.      Oversee installation of all tree protection fencing prior to commencement of any works
                              onsite (including any clearing).
                      c.      Supervise tree protection within the development site and frontages, prior to, during
                              and following construction in accordance with AS 4970, Protection of trees on
                              development sites.
                      d.      Supervise and undertake necessary tree protection for all trees affected by the
                              development on neighbouring Lots. This includes tree identified in Appendix 3 of the
                              approved arborist report that are identified as outside project scope – TPZ conflict.
                      e.      Oversee approved tree removal in proximity to retained trees.
                      f.      Undertake a risk assessment of all trees on neighbouring properties affected by the
                              development within striking distance of the development works and site and carry out
                              hazard removal and amenity pruning in accordance with AS 4373, Pruning of amenity
                              trees.
                      *(Refer to Advisory Note)
