            Lot 2, 4 & 5 on RP172460 & Lot 7 on RP895754

            8     CONCLUSIONS AND CERTIFICATION

            8.1       Conclusion
            This Bushfire Hazard Assessment and Management Plan has been prepared to support a
            proposed reconfiguration of lot development application over Lot 2, 4 & 5 on RP172460 & Lot 7
            on RP895754 located respectively at 66, 82 & 98 Coveys Rd & 39 Tinbeerwah Rd, Tinbeerwah
            (herein referred to as ‘the site’). The hazard assessment was undertaken in accordance with the
            current QLD benchmark methodology described in Department of Infrastructure, Local
            Government and Planning’s Natural Hazards, Risk and Resilience –– Bushfire (December 2019)
            State Planning Policy – state interest guidance material, and Queensland Fire and Emergency
            Services - (2019) Planning for Bushfire Resilient Communities.
            The Local Hazard Map prepared for the assessment has identified the proposed new building
            envelopes are affected by a Potential Impact Buffer associated with High Potential Bushfire
            Intensity Areas positioned within 100m of the building envelopes.
            Numerous bushfire reduction measures have been recommended herein, which if adopted, will
            assist in the protection of people and property during a bushfire emergency.
            A bushfire risk assessment has been undertaken in general accordance with AS/NZS ISO
            31000:2018 – Risk Management Methodology and identified that the tall open forest positioned
            within proximity of the proposed building envelopes exposes them to varying levels of direct
            flame, ember and radiant heat impact risk in the absence of additional mitigation measures being
            employed. The identified risk is anticipated to be reduced to at least a tolerable level for all building
            envelopes as a result of the mitigation measures prescribed within this report in combination with
            NCC 2019 As3959:2018 construction requirements.
            Overall, the development proposed for the site, in combination with recommendations referenced
            herein, is deemed acceptable with respect to providing a reasonable level of protection for people
            and property within the site.
            Bushfire is an extremely serious and often unpredictable phenomenon that requires serious
            preparatory planning and decision making to avoid potential damage to infrastructure and or loss
            of life. All recommendations made herein have been formulated based on site conditions at the
            time of writing and therefore may not be appropriate in the event site conditions change over time.
            Implementation of the bushfire mitigation measures referenced herein is not implied nor intended
            to advocate that residents remain on the site during a bushfire event nor that people and property
            will be protected from bushfire impact. The measures are intended to reduce the potential
            severity of bushfire impact to persons and property and not prevent actual bushfire impact.
            The landowners and site managers are to be responsible for ensuring the measures prescribed
            herein are applied and stay up to date with site conditions and industry standards.
            Landholders/managers should therefore liaise with Queensland Fire and Rescue Services at
            regular intervals (e.g., recommended at least every 5 years).
            The first call in the event of a bushfire emergency should always be ‘000’.
            8.2       Certification Matters
            The following bushfire mitigation measures are to be certified as satisfactorily completed by the
            project Bushfire Consultant prior to commencement of the proposed/approved uses on the site:
                  •    All actionable recommendations set in Section 6 of this report have been implemented
                       (i.e., APZ’s, fire break trail, landscaping etc.) where practical at the time of certification.
