EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Not applicable.

RECOMMENDATION
That Council note the report by the Civil Operations Technical Officer to the Infrastructure and
Services Committee dated 2 February 2016 and award tender 1516T040 to SGQ Pty Ltd for a
contract value of $268,658.00 (excl. GST).


REPORT
An extensive slip occurred on Cooroy Belli Creek Road, Cooroy, during Ex Tropical Cyclone Marcia
in February 2015. Since the event, Council have had extensive design and testing completed.
Several options have been considered for the repair work with the method of soil nailing and wire
mesh considered the most appropriate.

As the slip occurred during a declared disaster event that is recognised by the Queensland
Reconstruction Authority (QRA), Council has received approval for funding for the slip repair under
the National Disaster Relief and Recovery Arrangements (NDRRA).

Under the NDRRA, Noosa Council will be required to contribute 25% of funds once a nominated
cost trigger point of $293,857.00 (excl. GST) is reached, however, QRA will not fund the project if
the trigger point is not reached. The trigger point is determined by the State Government.

The total QRA approval is for $376,725 (excl. GST).

The slip design and report was completed by a local geotechnical consultant, Grinceri & Associates
Geotechnical. The report has recommended that the slip repair be broken down into 3 components:

i)                       Downhill Slip Repair
ii)                      Uphill Slope Stabilisation
iii)                     Culvert Replacement.

A copy of the report has been made available in the Councillors’ Room.
