The site (the subject lot/s) is part of an area of land within which the Department of Defence
(Defence) has assessed a ‘substantial’ risk of residual UXO contamination exists. Visit the Defence
website http://www.defence.gov.au/uxo/ for details.

Defence advises that development or land use rezoning proposals for land within a ‘substantial’ zone
should only proceed following the conduct of UXO investigation and clearance activities. Defence
maintains a list of commercial UXO investigation and remedial search contractors that it accredits to
carry out this work.

Defence also recommends that owners or occupiers of potentially affected land and workers and
contractors employed on the land need to be aware of the procedure if a suspect object.is found.
