                       AO5.2 Development in a storm tide inundation area is                N/A        The site is not located within a storm tide inundation area.
                       located, designed, constructed and operated to:
                       (1) maintain dune crest heights, or where a reduction in
                            crest heights cannot be avoided, mitigate risks to
                            development from wave overtopping and storm tide
                            inundation
                       (2) maintain or enhance coastal ecosystems and natural
                            features, such as mangroves and coastal wetlands,
                            between the development and tidal waters, where the
                            coastal ecosystems and natural features protect or
                            buffer communities and infrastructure from sea-level
                            rise and impacts from storm tide inundation.

                       AO5.3 Redevelopment of built structures in the erosion                        The proposal will not result in an intensification of the
                       prone area within a coastal management district:                               existing use as it merely seeks to separately title the two
                       (1) avoids intensifying the use of the premises, or                            existing dwellings on the site. Any future dwellings will be
                       (2) demonstrates that any intensification of use will not                      required to comply with the proposed building envelopes.
                           result in an increase in the need for erosion control
                           structures or riverbank hardening.

                       AO5.4 Development that is coastal protection work                   N/A        The proposal does not involve coastal protection work.
                       involves:
                       (1) beach nourishment undertaken in accordance with a
                            program of beach nourishment works that source
                            sediment of a suitable quality and type from outside
                            the active beach system, or
                       (2) the construction of an erosion control structure,
                            where it is demonstrated that installing an erosion
                            control structure is the only feasible option for
                            protecting permanent structures from coastal erosion
                            and those structures cannot be abandoned or
                            relocated in the event of coastal erosion occurring.
                       Editor’s note: Applications for coastal protection work should be
                       supported by a report certified by a Registered Professional
                       Engineer of Queensland (RPEQ) that demonstrates how the
                       engineering solution sought by the work will be achieved.

                       Editor’s note: Applications for erosion control structures should
                       demonstrate the consideration of beach nourishment techniques,
                       and include a statement of why nourishment (in whole or part)
                       has not been adopted as the preferred means of controlling the
