Attachment 2—Reasons for decision to impose conditions

The reasons for this decision are:
 To ensure the development is carried out generally in accordance with the plans of
   development submitted with the application
 To ensure that at all times, all lights on or above the development site do not interfere
   with safe navigation in surrounding waterways.
 To ensure the development does not encroach on the navigation corridor or high risk
   maritime zone to ensure the safe passage of vessels.
 To ensure that debris from the development does not create a hazard to navigation.
 To ensure that there is no residual material that could create a hazard to navigation.
 Development works must comply with the approved plans to avoid unacceptable impact
   on coastal values and physical coastal processes. RPEQ signoff indicates the
   development is appropriately designed and is structurally sound.
 Ensures that the coastal resource (State land) is appropriately administered under the
   Coastal Protection and Management Act 1995 and the Land Act 1994.
 Ensures impacts on coastal values (water quality) are avoided or minimised.
 Ensures importation of materials does not result in adverse impacts on coastal values.
   Chemical and other contaminants have the potential to have an unacceptable impact on
   coastal values.
 Damaged structures can impact on coastal resources and public safety.
