3. Filter sock sediment traps are to be used in the table drains downstream of works
within the road reserve.
In addition to these measures, stockpiles and construction materials are not permitted to be
stored within the road reserve and shall be contained using sediment fencing downstream
of these areas, turfed diversion swales are to be provided at upstream boundaries to reduce
flows to earthworks areas and sediment disposal from the site shall be undertaken to the
satisfaction of Noosa Shire Council.
4.1.2 Erosion and Sediment Control Monitoring
The control measures described above must be maintained in an effective operational
condition during the construction works. Regular inspections should be carried out by the
contractor and any defects in erosion and sediment control devices specified for the site
are to be remedied as soon as practicable. Any damage to either temporary or permanent
water quality control structures is to be immediately rectified at the contractor’s expense.
The inspection of the ESC devices is to be carried out as follows:
1. Routine Inspection – is to be carried out daily while work is being carried out
on site, or weekly while works are not being carried out.
2. Preventative inspection – to be carried out a maximum of 24 hours before
rain is forecast.
3. Reactive inspection – to be carried out within 18 hours of a rainfall event
sufficient to mobilise surface sediment on the site.
Documentation of these defects is to be carried out, recording the date the defect was
identified, a description of the defect, the cause of the defect and measures that can be
implemented to reduce the likelihood of the defect occurring in the future. Once the
device has been repaired, the date of repair and the solution implemented should also be
recorded in the documentation. An example template for this documentation has been
provided in Appendix B Example ESC Defect Documentation Template.
4. 2. O P E R A T I O N A L
The development is to comply with the Noosa Council Water Quality and Drainage Code,
AO6.2 which states:
“All stormwater runoff is treated to achieve maximum removal of nutrients, gross pollutants
and suspended solids as determined by cost to efficiency ratios. (e.g. bioretention basins
must be sized to achieve at least 80% reduction in total suspended solids, 60% reduction in
total phosphorous, 45% reduction in total nitrogen and 90% reduction in gross pollutants
>5mm).”
It is proposed that the following measures to be implemented will provide the required
level of stormwater quality improvement to minimise impacts to the downstream network:
• First-flush divertors will be installed for roof-water drainage to divert initial run-off
capture to irrigation of the vegetated areas on site.
