         Table 4: BAL Requirements - Potentially Hazardous Vegetation- Proposed Primary Residence




In accordance with AS 3959 (2018), the required Bushfire Attack Level for the proposed
development on the subject site has been determined. Based on this assessment, the
proposed development is potentially subject to the following, relative to each structure:

   •    Cabin 1 – BAL 19 (Refer to Sections 3 & 6 in the Australian Standard – Construction of
        Buildings in Bushfire-prone Areas - AS 3959, 2018).
   •    Cabin 2 – BAL-12.5 (Refer to Sections 3 & 5 in the Australian Standard – Construction
        of Buildings in Bushfire-prone Areas - AS 3959, 2018).
   •    Cabin 3 BAL-12.5 (Refer to Sections 3 & 5 in the Australian Standard – Construction of
        Buildings in Bushfire-prone Areas - AS 3959, 2018).
   •    Primary Residence – BAL-12.5 (Refer to Sections 3 & 5 in the Australian Standard –
        Construction of Buildings in Bushfire-prone Areas - AS 3959, 2018).

The nominated construction standards should be reviewed by an experienced
consultant/designer at the time of detailed building design. Should the proposed site layout
or vegetation setbacks identified above change, this may alter the determination of the
required BAL.

It is also noted that APZ setbacks are measured from the edge of the dwelling to the drip line
(i.e. edge of canopy) of adjacent, assessable vegetation communities.

It is noted that the proposed location of each structure has been assessed to exceed 1.5 times
the mature canopy height and >10m from adjacent assessable vegetation, relative to each
structure, as detailed. These setbacks are considered appropriate to function as Asset
Protection Zones adjacent each structure, in compliance with the performance outcomes and
