responsibility of the property owner/developer.
Stormwater Drainage

road reserve.
Environment (Erosion and Sediment Control)
21. Prescribed Water Contaminants (as defined in the Environmental Protection Act 1994) must
not be released from the site or to waters within the site, or be likely to be released should
rainfall occur, unless all reasonable and practicable measures are taken to prevent or
minimise the release and concentration of contamination.
22. The contractor must ensure non-essential exposure of soil is prevented by restricting the
extent of works and minimising the duration of soil exposure to adverse weather conditions.
Exposed areas must be suitably covered/stabilised/reinstated as soon as practicable and
prior to any predicted rainfall occurring.
23. Erosion and sediment control measures must be installed and maintained to minimise
erosion on the site and to minimise the export of sediment and associated pollutants from
the site. The erosion and sediment control measures must be designed, installed and
maintained in accordance with current best practice standards (refer to advisory notes).
FOLLOWING CONSTRUCTION
