      c.   All drainage grating over trafficable areas must be secured in a way that prevents
           rattling or nuisance noise.
      d.   Car park exhaust ducting is to have acoustic insulation before and after any right
           angle bend (900) at the outlet end of the exhaust fan/s.
      e.   Car park exhaust discharge riser is to be lined with 50mm thick insulation
           (hydrophobic fibreglass batts min. 32kg/m2 ) faced with perforated metal (min. 12%
           open face area)
      f.   A minimum Rw 34 (i.e. 10.76mm laminate in acoustic grade frames and acoustic
           seals) must be used for all new external windows and glass doors of the function /
           dining extension, children’s lounge and the new alfresco lounge.
      g.   New external walls of areas where amplified entertainment is proposed should be
           constructed to achieve a minimum Rw rating of 50.
      h.   Roof/ceiling of areas where amplified entertainment is proposed should be
           constructed to achieve a minimum Rw rating of 50.
      i.   At the time of installation, new mechanical plant and equipment, a/c units, motors,
           refrigeration equipment, compressors, pumps etc associated with Stage 4 of the
           development, should be installed within the building or suitably provided with noise
           reduction measures and located as to prevent a noise nuisance beyond the boundary
           of the site and not exceed the levels specified in Table 1.
                                                TABLE 1
                                  NOISE LIMITS AT A SENSITIVE RECEPTOR
                             Noise level at noise sensitive place measured as the adjusted
            PERIOD
                                       maximum sound pressure level (L10, adj,T)
           7am – 6pm                      Background noise level (L90,T) plus 5 dB(A)
           6pm – 10pm                       Background noise level plus 5 dB(A)
           10pm – 7am                      Background noise level plus 3 dB(A)
                                   NOISE LIMITS AT A COMMERCIAL PLACE
                              Noise level at a commercial place measured as the adjusted
            PERIOD
                                       maximum sound pressure level (L10, adj,T)
           7am – 6pm                      Background noise level (L90,T) plus 10 dB(A)
           6pm – 10pm                        Background noise level plus10 dB(A)
           10pm – 7am                         Background noise level plus 8 dB(A)

      Acoustic Report
20.   An acoustic report prepared by a suitably qualified person* is to be submitted to Council
      confirming assessment and certification of measured noise levels from the new mechanical
      plant and equipment, a/c units, motors, refrigeration equipment, compressors, pumps etc
      comply with the noise limits as set out in Table 1 and all other relevant noise conditions of
      this Decision Notice associated with Stage 4 of the development.
21.   The report is to be submitted after commissioning any new equipment (with all plant and
      equipment operating at the same time) and when all building extensions are complete.
22.   Measurement of sound pressure levels (adjusted for tonality and impulse) must be in
      accordance with Australian Standard AS1055.1 “Acoustics – Description and measurement
      of environmental noise – General procedures”.
      Suitably Qualified Person* - Certification
      For the purpose of measuring and certifying compliance with relevant noise conditions of
      this Decision Notice, a suitably qualified person is either:
      i.   a Registered Professional Engineer of Queensland, or

                                                                                     Page 6 of 61
