Decision Notice OPW26 0086 (As Published)

                      Environment (Erosion and Sediment Control)
               20.    Prescribed Water Contaminants (as defined in the Environmental Protection Act 1994) must
                      not be released from the site or to waters within the site, or be likely to be released should
                      rainfall occur, unless all reasonable and practicable measures are taken to prevent or
                      minimise the release and concentration of contamination.
               21.    The contractor must ensure non-essential exposure of soil is prevented by restricting the
                      extent of works and minimising the duration of soil exposure to adverse weather conditions.
                      Exposed areas must be suitably covered/stabilised/reinstated as soon as practicable and
                      prior to any predicted rainfall occurring.
               22.    Erosion and sediment control measures must be installed and maintained to minimise
                      erosion on the site and to minimise the export of sediment and associated pollutants from
                      the site. The erosion and sediment control measures must be designed, installed and
                      maintained in accordance with current best practice standards (refer to advisory notes).

               The following notes are included for guidance and information purposes only and do not form part
               of the assessment manager conditions:
                      General Advisory Notes
               1.     As this driveway is a private structure, the owner bears full responsibly for the standard of its
                      construction, maintenance and any liabilities associated with its construction. It is
                      recommended that professional advice be sought for the construction of the driveway to
                      ensure that the driveway is constructed in accordance with standard drawing RS-056.
               2.     Council reserves the right to call up any performance bond held or levy charges against the
                      property, should emergency works be required to be undertaken by Council to make the site
                      safe due to inactivity on the development site for extended periods of time.
               3.     Should any changes or modifications to the approved plans be required as a result of
                      construction constraints, a “Request to change an existing approval” under the Planning Act
                      2016 must be made. Amended plans clearly indicating the changes must be lodged with this
                      application along with the appropriate fees.
                      Prestart Inspections Request
               4.     Contact Council on 5329 6500 to arrange a prestart or an inspection giving a minimum of 5
                      business days notice of preferred inspection time.
                      It should be noted prior to arranging a pre-start meeting the Appeal Period of 20 business
                      days must have passed or the applicant must have provided Council with written confirmation
                      that the applicant has accepted the conditions of Decision Notice and waived their appeal
                      rights.
               5.     If Council officers are required to undertake additional inspections of the same works, a
                      reinspection fee will be applicable in accordance with Council’s Fees and Charges register
                      applicable at the time.
