    60.   The site must be provided with a bin wash area with a cold-water tap, hose and drain
          outlet connected to sewer, via a bucket trap. The drain outlet is to be designed to
          prevent storm water entry to the sewerage system which can be achieved by a
          bunded area, with a nib wall height of 100mm maximum, enclosing a wash area of
          700mm x 700mm minimum (max 0.7m²). Alternatively, the waste area can be roofed,
          or another appropriate design approved by Council.
    61.   A Waste Management Plan (Operational) in accordance with Planning Scheme
          Policy No. 9 Waste Management and Planning Scheme Policy 11, Waste
          Management Plans* must be submitted for the day-to-day operation of the
          development and approved by Council’s Waste and Environmental Health Section,
          prior to issue of development permit for operational works.
          The Plan must include the following information: -
          a.   types of wastes that will be generated from the activities approved within the
               development.
          b.   estimated volumes or tonnage of both recyclables and waste generated.
          c.   methods to be used for dealing with garden waste.
          d.   initiatives to minimize waste either by waste prevention, reduction, re-use or
               recycling.
          e.   description of procedures for getting all waste to the bins; the storage of bins
               and the collection of bins by the contractor.
          f.   description of the design details of waste storage and recycling areas including
               size, location, elevation and floor plan, methods of bin washing and system to
               prevent storm water getting into sewer via the bin wash.
          g.   description of types and volume of waste storage containers to be used.
          h.   waste and recycling storage area shall include the provision of containers for all
               waste and recycling materials including putrescible matter, non-recycling waste,
               paper/ cardboard, glass, aluminium/steel cans, waste oil, styrofoam boxes, etc,
               and bin washing facilities connected to sewer.
          i.   detailed description of vehicular access routes to collect waste. Where
               collection is off street, access must allow vehicles to enter and leave the site in

          Noise
    62.   Written certification from a suitably qualified person must be submitted to Council
          confirming that sound pressure levels from all mechanical plant and equipment
          comply with the following :
          Air-conditioning and Refrigeration:
             7am to 10pm: Maximum level allowable = background + 5dB(A)
             10pm to 7am: Maximum level allowable = background + 3dB(A)
          Pumps:
             7am to 7pm: Maximum level allowable = background + 5dB(A)
             7pm to 10pm: Maximum level allowable = background + 3dB(A)
             10pm to 7am: No audible noise.
          Assessment and certification is required immediately after installation of the
          equipment and prior to any occupation of the building. All equipment should be
          operating at the same time to test the overall noise level created, with the
          measurement location at either the residential boundary or outside the most exposed
          part of an affected building - whichever is the closest to the plant/equipment.

                                                                                 Page 13 of 118
