2.0 Water Cycle Management

2.1     Background
The purpose of this section of the SWMP is to outline water saving measures that will be implemented in
the design and construction of the proposed development.


2.2     Wastewater Minimisation
To reduce the impact of water demand from the development and to minimise the loading on the existing
sewerage network, it is intended to reduce the wastewater leaving the site through the use of “at source”
measures. This will include:
        Water saving shower roses with a AAA rating or better
        Dual flush toilet cisterns that do not exceed 6 litres on full flush and 3 litres on half flush
        The use of 3 star (or higher) water efficient appliances


3.0 Water Quality Management
3.1     Background
A requirement of the proposed development is that Stormwater quality treatment shall be provided to meet
the design objectives set out in Section 2.4 of DERM’s Urban Stormwater Quality Planning guidelines 2010
and the associated with State Planning Policy (SPP) 4/10 Healthy Waters. The scope typically
encompasses the ‘post construction’ phase of the development however ‘construction phase’ water quality
is briefly addressed.


3.2     Construction Phase
Table 3.1 has been adapted from Table C4.1 of Brisbane City Council’s (BCC) Stormwater Best
Management Practices 2000 and details the typical stormwater pollutants which may be generated during
the construction phase of the development.
