          registered against the title of the property.
    35.   All easements must be designed in accordance with the planning scheme and granted
          at no cost to the Grantee. Where the Grantee is Council or a service authority, the

    Earthworks and Retaining Walls
    37.   All earthworks, associated batters and retaining walls must be undertaken in
          accordance with an Operational Works approval, and must in particular:
          a.    Be undertaken in compliance with the provisions of Australian Standard AS3798:
                Guidelines on Earthworks for Commercial and Residential Developments.
          b.    Be carried out in accordance with a site-specific Geotechnical Investigation
                Report prepared by a suitably qualified person* that addresses, in particular:
                i.    the impact of excavation and the construction works on the stability of
                      nearby building and infrastructures
                ii.   Acid Sulfate Soil assessment report in accordance with State Planning
                      Policy 2/02 Planning and Managing Development Involving Acid Sulfate
                      Soils and supported by appropriate testing and documentation.
          c.    Have all access chamber surface levels for drainage, water supply or sewerage
                infrastructure within the work site be adjusted to provide a freeboard of 100mm
                above the finished ground surface level or be in accordance with the
                requirements and directions of the service provider.
          d.    All fill and associated batters must be contained entirely within the subject site

                (*) refer to Advisory Notes
    Acid Sulfate Soils
    38.   Where excavations of non-imported soils below the elevation of 5m AHD are necessary
          for construction, the application for Operational Works for Bulk Earthworks, Stormwater
          and /or Landscaping must demonstrate and include certification from a suitably
          experienced and qualified geotechnical engineer of methods necessary to ensure
          construction and operation of the development:
          a.    Shall be consistent with Queensland Acid Sulphate Soil Technical Manual: Soil
                Management Guidelines; and
          b.    will not result in the release of acid or associated metals; and
          c.    will not cause localised lowering of groundwater.
    Erosion and Sediment Control
    39.   Prior to the completion of the development, all site surfaces must be effectively
          stabilised. 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.

                                                                                     Page 43 of 84
