Dear Sir

Operational Work, Prescribed Tidal Works — Request for comments
Pontoon — JA & LP McDermott, 3 Dolphin Crescent, Noosaville (Lot 69 on CP N1057)

Thank you for your letter of 2 February 2009 about your proposal to construct a pontoon at the
location mentioned above.

As a concurrence agency, Maritime Safety Queensland has no objection to the proposal provided the
following navigation and marine safety conditions are complied with.

1, The contractor must build the pontoon according to AAA Design, Drawing No 477-01, 477-02,
477-03 attached to your letter dated 2 February 2009.

2." No part of the structure or any ship berthed at this structure is to come closer than 1.5metres from
the side boundaries of the allocated water space as shown on the submitted water allocation plan
477-01,

3. The pontoon and all freestanding piles must be lit and clearly visible to approaching vessels. The
contractor must position all lighting so it does not cause a risk to the safe navigation of other
vessels,

4. The ship moored at this pontoon must follow the most direct course from this structure to open
waters and a similar direct course when returning to this pontoon. By only using the Keyser’
Channel, Weyba Creek and Noosa River, the ship moored at this pontoon is not permitted to
navigate in any other canal.

5. The applicant or his agent is responsible for the removal of any existing structure above or below
the waterline, and must contain and remove any debris. Any pile that needs to be removed must
be totally extracted.
