Important Note:
It should be noted that this Method 2 Bushfire Attack Level Assessment (BAL) and Minimum Distance
Calculation has been determined based on site conditions at the time of writing, and utilising current
best-practice assessment methodologies as detailed. This information has been provided to inform
detailed design, as the site layout and setbacks able to be achieved have yet to be determined. This
report should not be considered a final Bushfire Attack Level rating, nor a Bushfire Management Plan
for the purpose of planning approval of the proposed development. These reports, where applicable,
are to be finalised/prepared once detailed design of the proposed development is complete.

Bushfire Assessment methodologies are not able to factor in and predict catastrophic bushfire events.,
Bushfires are an intrinsic part of Australia's environment, are often unpredictable, and have
potentially extremely serious consequences, and no guarantee is able to be provided or should be
assumed that the area will not be affected by bushfire at some time.

Regardless of the results of this assessment, owners should be aware of the unpredictability of
Bushfire in the landscape, and the need to be bushfire aware and prepared for extreme events.

All Queenslanders should be familiar with the official Bushfire Warnings system and have a completed
Bushfire Survival Plan. Print ready guides for preparing a Bushfire Survival Plan and to assist in the
interpretation of the official Bushfire Warnings system are available for download from the Rural Fire
Service Queensland website – https://ruralfire.qld.gov.au/bushfires/.
