4.0 FINDINGS

All the field information and test results collected during our site investigation and
detailed in this report, including any site plans, log and data sheets together form the
basis of our recommendations for this Land Application Facility.

The soil profile encountered during our investigations, and as reported, was
reasonably and acceptably consistent across the proposed development, and within

our expectations from regional experience and correlation with The Qld Dept of
Mines/Energy Geology Sheet 9445/1999 (Gympie).

The Qld Dept Mines/Energy Geology Sheet 9445/1999 describes the geology as
Early-Middle Triassic, Kin Kin Beds, arenite, argillite or phyllite.

The proposed Land Application Area for the proposed cabins is on a partially exposed
25% northern slope with existing vegetation consisting of grasses and trees.

The proposed Land Application Area for the future shed is on a partially exposed 25%
northern slope with existing vegetation consisting of grasses and trees.

The landform was recorded as natural and partially disturbed.
Slope configuration across the proposed site is determined to be linear planar.

Slope stability problems were not evident during our investigations and expert
evaluation deemed unnecessary.

The susceptibility to flooding from groundwater is low and the indicative drainage
was recorded as imperfect.

No water table was encountered on the day of our site investigation.
