                                                                                                                          2212-32529 SRA




         response to an information request for a previous development application for the proposed
         project. It is also noted that the Noosa Spit Coastal Protection Environmental Assessment
         prepared by BMT Commercial Australia Pty Ltd, dated 23rd November 2022, reference
         R.A10342.002.01_Environmental Assessment.docx and revision 01 states that dredging will be
         undertaken in winter months when shorebird numbers are lowest, but does not specify the
         months. Therefore, SARA seek to confirm the proposed dredge timing.
         Action:
         Confirm when you intend to undertake dredging, for example between April and September.
