               •       regular and ongoing maintenance works will be required after the initial works described
                       above to ensure the temporary carpark and laydown continues to function safely and
                       efficiently (i.e., fill of potholes, re-grading of carparking, etc) without causing an ongoing
                       erosion and sediment nuisance; and
               •       the works area may not be able to reasonably achieve ‘long-term’ stabilisation expected
                       upon the complete of the immediate earthworks because the area will be frequently
                       trafficked.
               It is recommended that any future permit have a sunset clause for the works to achieve ‘long-
               term’ stabilisation by May 2029 (i.e., cease works by May 2029) to ensure the works area does
               not present as an on-going erosion and sediment control nuisance. It is also recommended that
               regular inspections of the site’s erosion and sediment controls are imposed to ensure that the
               maintenance works can be undertaken without causing nuisance.

               Environment

               A portion of the proposed car park and laydown area is located within a mapped Riparian
               Protection Area. The image below demonstrates that the existing shared driveway access and
               surrounding gravel areas associated with the Wimmers building are unsealed and currently do
               not incorporate erosion and sediment control measures.

               The proposed works will formalise these areas and incorporate gravel resurfacing, erosion and
               sediment controls, turf-lined swales, rock check structures and a rock mattress. Collectively,
               these measures are expected to significantly improve site stormwater management and reduce
               the risk of sediment discharge to downstream waterways. In addition to the proposed erosion and
               sediment controls a condition requiring the permanent stabilisation of the area around the rock
               mattress and outlet with 100 Lomandra longifolia has been required.




               Engineering recommends that the proposal satisfies the relevant provisions of The Noosa Plan
               2020 and recommends the following conditions.
