Decision Notice OPW25 0021 · OPW25/0021

               19.    The developer must ensure sediment does not leave the site or enter onto adjoining
                      properties or Council’s drainage system due to surface runoff or on tyres of vehicles and/or
                      machinery. It is essential to implement appropriate approved erosion and sediment control
                      measures throughout the site during all phases of construction including vehicle shakedown
                      pad/grid (or similar) at the access to the construction site. Where sediments or other
                      contaminants are deposited on a road, they must be removed so as not to enter Council’s
                      drainage system or waterways.
               20.    Prior to the completion of the development and commencement of use, all site surfaces must
                      be effectively stabilised using methods which have achieved effective short-term
                      stabilisation, and which will continue to achieve effective stabilisation in the medium to long-
                      term.
                      For the purpose of this condition, an effectively stabilised surface is defined as one that does
                      not, or is not likely to, result in visible evidence of soil loss caused by sheet, rill or gully erosion
                      or lead to sedimentation, or lead to water contamination.
                      Damage to Services and Assets
               21.    Any damage caused to existing services and assets as a result of the development works
                      must be repaired at no cost to the asset owner at the following times:
                      a.      where the damage would cause a hazard to pedestrian or vehicle safety, immediately;
                              or
                      b.      where otherwise, upon completion of the works associated with the development.
                      Any repair work which proposes to alter the alignment or level of existing services and assets
                      must first be referred to the relevant service authority for approval.
               PRIOR TO COUNCIL SIGNING THE PLAN OF SURVEY
                      Certification
               22.    Upon completion of the work a certificate must be issued by an RPEQ certifying that the
                      works have been constructed in accordance with the Operational Works permit.
               5.     REFERENCE DOCUMENTS

               Not applicable.
               6.     REFERRAL AGENCIES

               Not applicable.
               7.     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.     Council has undertaken an audit check of the Operational Works drawings in relations to the
                      proposed works. A detailed check of the calculations and drawings has not been undertaken,
                      as they have been certified by a RPEQ. The RPEQ bears full responsibility for all aspects of
                      the engineering design. Council reserves the right to require further amendments and/or
                      additions at a later date should design errors become apparent.
               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.
