Mitigating Measures
• Well established refuse areas with ample storage bins. Fenced off where deemed
necessary.
• Provision of ample litter bins across the commercial footprints of the site. Particularly in
any outdoor dining or areas of congregation.
• Promotion of stormwater surface runoff through landscaped areas or similar sediment
buffering strips/traps.
• Provide stormwater pits outside paved areas that receive runoff from areas prone to gross
pollutants with surrounding buffering measures, such as stone pitching.
• Provide gross pollutant inserts into stormwater pits within paved areas that receive runoff
from areas prone to gross pollutants.
Hydrocarbon Runoff:
Hydrocarbons can be mobilised and transported in stormwater runoff from the site. This can contaminate
stormwater runoff compromising Water Quality Objectives.
Potential Causes
• Leaks from parked vehicles within the completed development.
• Washing of vehicles within the completed development.
Mitigating Measures
• Fall driveways and parking areas towards adjacent landscaped strips, vegetated swales
and the bioretention bed.
Nutrient Runoff:
Nutrients such as Nitrogen and Phosphorus can be mobilised and transported in Stormwater runoff from
the site. This can compromise Water Quality Objectives.
Potential Causes
• Runoff from hard surfaces within the site.
• Detergents used in car washing and similar activities.
• Fertilisers used in propagation of landscaped areas.
• Embodied nutrients contained in silt (topsoil) runoff.
• Embodied nutrients contained in runoff.
