Letter with Amended Plans (22.01.20) · RAL18/0023

Access to Eenie Creek Road from the area under the powerline can be accommodated for emergency firefighting
appliances in the case of an unplanned fire event. The ownership of the portion of National Park to the north of the
site does not have a powerline easement in favour of Energex given the land is state controlled. As confirmed by
QPWS and our bushfire expert, the area within the National Park under the powerline maintained as manicured
grass for this secondary emergency access.

To connect through to the Eenie Creek Road pavement, appliances will utilise the existing pedestrian cycle path to
the west of the powerline as shown in figure 3. No works are required within the National Park to facilitate this. The
existing Eenie Creek Road pedestrian/cycle path may need upgrading to accommodate the load bearing
requirements of a firefighting appliance, and these upgrade works would be the responsibility of the developer.
Widening of the existing pedestrian/cycle path connection onto the Eenie Creek Road pavement surface to
accommodate emergency vehicle movement as nominated in the below Figure 4 is necessary and the

responsibility of the developer. Any construction within this area will be managed in accordance of the Nature
Conservation Act 1992.

The upgraded pedestrian/cycle connection with Eenie Creek Road will have a gate to Noosa Council requirements

for emergency vehicle and Noosa Council access whilst maintaining pedestrian and cycle access during normal
use,

This has been formally negotiated with National Parks who are supportive and have agreed to improved
emergency vehicle access for fire management.

Detailed design documentation for any works to the pedestrian and cycle path including connection to the Eenie
Creek Road pavement will be addressed during the operational works application. We acknowledge that this is
Council infrastructure and any upgrades will necessarily need to be designed to relevant standards and conditions
imposed as part of an approval for the Reconfiguration of Lot.
