Bushfire Report

                               BUSHFIRE ASSESSMENT REPORT
Client: The Knowles Group                                           Location: Eenie Creek Road, Noosaville

The proposal can be conditioned to comply with the requirements of the Noosa Natural Hazard
Areas Overlay Code and suitable bushfire mitigation measures implemented. The proposed
mitigation measures are superior to the requirements of Noosa Councils bushfire provisions /
Natural Hazards Overlay Code. The implementation of the recommended measures would result in
a very well bushfire prepared facility and would reduce the level of risk of either the loss of the
facility or the loss of life in a credible worst case bushfire scenario (FFDI 40 as per AS3959:2009)
to low.
