                                                       1. Where there is more than one type of soil on the site, select the category with the highest point value.
                                                       2. The time, from when the building site will first become vulnerable to erosion, to the time the soil will
                                                          be fully stabilised (eg. grassing).
                                                       3. If this time span covers more than one category, select the category with the highest point value.
                                                          Note that if there is no grass/vegetation cover on the site before building work has started, the time
                                                          span starts from the time this form is completed.
                                                       4. If you are not sure, score 1 point.
                                                       5. For the purpose of this form, ‘cut and fill’ works are those that will result in a steep batter or retaining
                                                          wall above and/or below the building slab, greater than 1 metre in height. If the building slab has
                                                          already been fully cut and stabilised (eg. grassed) during the subdivision stage, score 0 points.
                                                       6. Watercourse means any clearly identifiable creek, stream or river, whether flowing permanently or
                                                          intermittently.
                                                       7. For a high risk site, the total score is  14 points.
                                                       8. For a low risk site, the total score is < 14 points.
