EARTHWORKS CODE
A summary of the proposed development’s compliance with the purpose of the Eathworks Code is
included below.

The purpose of this code is to ensure:
   a) To ensure that earthworks do not unreasonably impact on the natural environment or other
       properties with regard to—
          i. land stability (including differential settlement or expansion in reactive soils);
         ii. contamination of land;
        iii. flooding and drainage;
        iv. groundwater, watercourses and wetlands;
         v. loss of native remnant or regrowth vegetation; and
   b) Earthworks are designed and constructed to be structurally sound.

Comment: The proposal will comply with all applicable Specific Outcomes of the Earthworks Code.
This code will be addressed in greater detail as a component of a subsequent operational works
application.



EROSION CONTROL CODE
A summary of the proposed development’s compliance with the purpose of the Erosion and Sediment
Control Code is included below.

The purpose of this code is to ensure:

    a) there is no significant environmental harm caused by the effects of erosion and sediment
       transport associated with development;
    b) disturbed areas are stabilised and restored promptly and effectively; and
    c) disturbance of land is minimised.

Comment: The proposal will comply with all applicable Specific Outcomes of the Erosion Control
Code. This code will be addressed in greater detail as a component of a subsequent operational works
application.



EXISTING SERVICES CODE
A summary of the proposed development’s compliance with the purpose of the Existing Services Code
is included below.

The purpose of this code is to ensure:
   a) Existing Council owned underground infrastructure is protected from potential or actual
       damage caused by development;
   b) Underground infrastructure is accessible for maintenance purposes; and
   c) Existing services are identified and methods of protection and access are implemented in the
       design of the development.

Comment: The proposal will comply with all applicable Specific Outcomes of the Existing Services
Code. This code will be addressed in greater detail as a component of a subsequent operational works
application.
