Dear Sir or Madam:
Re:	Request for Extension to Relevant Period of Development Approval 2008/383 – Sand Recycling Pump Station
Council wishes to advise Department of Transport & Main Roads (DTMR), acting as a concurrence agency, of its request for extension to the relevant period of development approval (Council Approval 2008/383) as follows:
Property/Location:
Street address 	Noosa Spit Beach and Main Beach NOOSA HEADS QLD 4567
Lot/Plan		Lot 114 and 115 on Plan MCH839107
Currency Period:
The Development Permit for the Operational Works approval lapses if the use has not happened by 9 January 2011, unless an application to extend the currency is approved by Council.
Explanation of Request for Extension:
Council originally invited tenders for the construction of the sand recycling pump station on 21 December 2009. The tender closed on 2 February 2010 and only two tenders were received. On the 12 May 2010, Council accepted a tender from Garard Moulded Precast Pty Ltd. This acceptance offer to Garard Moulded Precast was withdrawn by Council on 21 June 2010 due to the non-compliance of the contractor with the tender conditions.
Tenders were recalled on 18 September 2010 for the construction of the pump station. This tender closed on 2 November 2010 and nine tenders were received. Acceptance of a tender is anticipated for late November or early December 2010. This should result in work commencing in January 2011 and to be completed around July 2011.
Further enquiries may be made to Infrastructure Services Department by phoning Rod Williams on 0418 782 996.
Yours sincerely

Denis Shaw
COASTAL & CANALS MANAGER
