    CLIMATE CHANGE
    The advice provided in this certificate is based upon standards relating to current climatic conditions and historically recorded
    flood events only. Please be aware, the current standards do not include allowances for future climate change projections in
    our   region. These projections include but are not limited to; increased rainfall intensity, higher mean sea level and more
    extreme weather conditions (e.g. storm surge and tropical cyclones).


    QUEENSLAND COASTAL PLAN ADVISORY NOTE
    The above Defined Flood Levels and Minimum Floor Levels do not account for increases in sea level due to the predicted
    effects of Climate Change. The Queensland Coastal Plan (SPP 3/11) may contain additional requirements in relation to
    projected sea level rise due to climate change for development applications within the Coastal Zone, other than development
    for a detached house (for which the QCP does not apply).
    Further information can be obtained from the Department of Environment and Resource Management, with specific property
    searches available through the Departments website at:
    http://www.derm.qld.gov.au/environmental_managemenUcoast_and_oceans/coastal_managemenUcoastal_plan_maps.php

    NOTES FOR FLOOD INFORMATION
    1.    The absence of Highest Historical Flood Level information does not imply that the above property is not subject to
    flooding, simply that Council has no record of this property flooding. Applicants are encouraged to make their own local
    enquiries.
    2.      The MINIMUM FLOOR LEVEL is calculated as whichever is greater of either:

            (a) 500mm freeboard added to the Defined Flood Level for the site; or
            (b) 800mm freeboard added to the Defined Flood Level for the site if the property is located in the Noosa River
                catchment only in accordance with the Noosa River Flood Study; or

            (c) 500mm freeboard added to the Highest Historical Flood Level appropriate to the site; or
            (d) If the property is intended for use as a Hospital or Emergency Services Facility then the Sunshine Coast Regional
                 Council should be contacted to determine this level.

    3.      Council advises that if stormwater drainage pipelines/easements exist on the property then no earthworks or building are
    permitted in the easement.
    4.      All buildings shall conform to the relevant Planning Scheme Code in The Noosa Plan.

    5.    Please be aware of the natural topography in your area. Water runoff which exceeds the capacity of the underground
    drainage system (if present) and which concentrates in surface depressions and gullies as it flows down a catchment can
    cause localised flooding and is not identified in this certificate.

    6.      Filling must not cause actionable nuisance in accordance with Queensland Urban Drainage Manual.
    7.      Council advises that if there are openings to basements these openings require a minimum level at least equal to the
    minimum floor level.
