1. INTRODUCTION
Noosa Shire Council (Client or Council) engaged Environmental Advisors Pty Ltd to undertake a
statutory contaminated land Detailed Site Investigation (DSI) for land described as 62 Lake Macdonald
Drive (Lot 105 SP118458) Cooroy, QLD 4563 (site) as delineated on the SmartMap and Drawing 1 in
Appendix A. The site has an area of 3.537 hectares (ha) and is being considered for affordable housing
redevelopment.
This Contaminated Land Investigation Document (CLID) is required to inform the proposed
redevelopment and facilitate statutory requirements for contaminated land matters under the
Environmental Protection Act 1994. Consequently, the Client appointed Contaminated Land Auditor
(CLA) Mr Trevor Lloyd to perform relevant functions and to ultimately progress a Suitability Statement in
conjunction with the Suitably Qualified Person (SQP) Andrew Winters.
A CLID content reconciliation table is presented as Appendix K.
1.1. PREVIOUS ASSESSMENT
A Preliminary Site Investigation (PSI) was initially completed as a due diligence dated 30/5/23 that was
updated to the following statutory document:
• Lot 105 SP118458, Cooroy, QLD, 4563, Preliminary Site Contamination Investigation, 30 October
2023, Environmental Advisors (PSI).
The PSI identified the presence of a Notifiable Activity (historical landfilling) and associated Hazardous
Contaminants (physical wastes, asbestos and elevated heavy metals above applicable criteria) with
Council subsequently notifying the Department of Environment, Science and Innovation (DESI) on or
around 30/5/23 to list the site on the Queensland Environmental Management Register (EMR). These
notification forms are presented as Appendix J and as at 1/2/24 the EMR register has yet to be updated.
Key information from the PSI has been reproduced within this DSI.
1.2. PURPOSE
The purpose is to perform a DSI to progress site characterisation to support the proposed redevelopment
and removal of all or a portion of the site from the EMR.
The work to satisfy this purpose was, where relevant for the approved scope, based on the requirements
of the Environmental Protection Act 1994 (EP Act) and the National Environment Protection Council
1999, as amended 2013, National Environment Protection (Assessment of Site Contamination) Measure
(NEPM) and included:
• Additional assessment of soil and fill
• Assessment of groundwater and landfill gas
• Screening level risk assessment.
The information provided in this Report was further guided by the requirements of the Queensland Auditor
Handbook for Contaminated Land Module 6: Content requirements for contaminated land investigation
documents, certifications and audit reports (ESR/2018/4224 as updated 18/5/23) (Module 6),
Contaminated land investigation document – approved form ESR/2023/6339, Version 1.03 19 May 2023,

In practical terms it is not possible to assess source related hazards to a level where they can be stated to be as being non-
existent and some residual hazard that may result in a risk may remain. Non-existent is intended to mean low risk.

3. DESKTOP REVIEW
3.1. TOPOGRAPHY AND DRAINAGE
Topography is generally consistent with the north-eastern side of a hill with the mid-western site boundary
near the peak at around 130m Australian Height Datum (AHD) and the site sloping moderately to the
north and east-south-east around 110mAHD and 120mAHD at the eastern boundary. Topographic data is
presented in Appendix D (pages 5 and 6) and Figure 1 below. Additional topographic information with
0.5m contours is shown on the Lot reconfiguration plan presented in Appendix A.
Surface drainage would flow across the site to the north, east or south-east. The majority of surface flows
leaving the site would flow east for some 150m and then change direction markedly in line with natural
topography to flow north to north-north-west within unnamed channels into Six Mile Creek Left Branch
that discharges some 35km to the north-west into the Mary River, just south of Gympie.
Figure 1 Surface drainage feature
3.2. GEOLOGY
Geology information is summarised from information presented in Appendix D (pages 35-39) utilising data
sourced from Australian Bureau of Agricultural and Resource Economics and Sciences (ABARES) and
State of Queensland Department of Resources). Surface geology is described in Table 3 and Figure 2
below.

Figure 2 Surface Geology Figure 3 Atlas of Australian Soils
Underlying the northern third of the site the surface geology comprises Rk Myrtle Creek Sandstone, with
the southern two thirds comprising geology described as RJdm Kin Kin Beds that has relatively additional
mudstone, sandstone or siltstone that is cemented weaklier.
The Atlas of Australian Soils (based on Northcote et al., 1960-68) (refer Figure 3 and Table 4) indicates
that soils of the site and surrounds are classified as Mb9 Kandosol, with rolling to low hilly terrain of a
weakly dissected sedimentary basin, with gently sloping convex hills and significant stream flats. Chief
soils are acid yellow leached earths and acid yellow earths on crests and slopes.
Table 4 Australian Soil Classification Orders
3.3. HYDROGEOLOGY
Data presented in Appendix D (pages 30-34 and 46-52) shows the site is not mapped as a potential
Groundwater Dependant Ecosystem (GDE).
Whilst no registered bores or known abstraction are directly associated with the site and immediate
surrounds, 26 registered groundwater bores are located within a 2000m radius. The closest registered
groundwater bore RN185193 located approximately 184m south-east has a groundwater aquifer from 24
to 27mbgl in shale and quartz formations.

The permanent groundwater aquifer (not perched water) would be expected to underlie the site at similar
depths, however, shallower perched groundwater may also be present.

Of note is the initial registered use of the land in 1912 for sanitary purposes and rubbish, with this title
cancelled in 1958. This title notes that the site was originally vegetated “very thickly and heavily timbered
with numerous tree species and saplings”. Land to the south of the site was noted to be “sandy”.
3.5. ENVIRONMENTAL PERMITS, APPROVALS AND LICENSING
Data presented in Appendix D (pages 7-11) indicates that the site does not form part of any prescribed
current or former Environmentally Relevant Activities (ERA) with off-site ERA’s present over 250m to the
west and south-west associated with sewage treatment.
A prescribed resource activity (petroleum pipeline permit held by Allgas Energy Pty Ltd) is present around
90m east of the site. This pipeline is associated with natural gas and is not considered to be of
significance with respect to contaminated land matters at the site.
3.6. LOCAL GOVERNMENT PLANNING AND ENVIRONMENTAL VALUES
Noosa Council online mapping accessed 12 April 20233 (refer Figure 4) indicates the site is zoned
“Community Facilities”.

3.7. STATE GOVERNMENT PLANNING AND ENVIRONMENTAL VALUES
State government planning and environmental values were reviewed as part of the datasets presented in
Appendices D and E (Matters of State Environmental Significance). One area of regulated vegetation
(Category R – GBR riverine regrowth) is present over the north of the site as shown on Figure 6 below.
Figure 6 MSES Map
3.8. CLIMATE
There is no Australian Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) weather station for Cooroy, with Wikipedia
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunshine_Coast,_Queensland#Climate) noting the broader climate of the
Sunshine Coast being a humid subtropical climate typical of South Queensland. Summers are generally
hot (low 40so C) but moderated compared to areas on similar latitudes elsewhere, although Cooroy may
be expected to be slightly hotter on average due to the inland location. Winters retain warm days but have
cooler nights, with Cooroy expected to have an increased, although rare, chance of overnight freezing
temperatures and frosts when compared to the coastal strip.
The annual average rainfall is around 1,500mm with a distinct wet season during the months of
December through April with monthly rainfall averages greater than 100 mm, and a distinct dry season
between the months May through November with less than 100 mm mean monthly rainfall between these
months.
3.9. ACID SULFATE SOILS
Based on mapping from the Queensland Department of Natural Resources, Mines and Energy (as shown
on Figure 7 over page and Appendix D (pages 40 and 41) the site is classified as having an extremely
low (1-5%) probability of having Acid Sulfate Soils (ASS). Approximately 700m to the east there is an
area of lower topography that has an increased (6-70%) chance of ASS occurring.

3.10. NATIONAL LIQUID FUEL FACILITIES
As detailed within Appendix D (pages 14 and 15) there are no waste management or liquid fuel facilities
located on-site. Two commercial service stations are located over 750m to the south-west that are not
considered significant to the current assessment.
3.11. HISTORICAL BUSINESS INFORMATION
As detailed within Appendix D (pages 16-17) there are no recorded historical business directory records
for the site and immediately surrounding area of significance to contaminated land matters. With respect
to the broader area, a general history of Cooroy and notable businesses may be accessed at Heritage
Noosa (https://heritage.noosa.qld.gov.au/nodes/view/314) that indicates:
• The railway station opened in 1891 that facilitated the early development of Cooroy township, with an
initial focus on timber and dairy industries and then growing sugar cane, fruit and vegetables
• Several sawmills were in operation, notably Fenwicks that operated from 1908 to 2000
• By 1910 Wimmers Cordial Factory was established, which recently moved to the site of the former
Cooroy brickworks, and
• A butter factory operated from 1915 to 2010.
3.12. HISTORICAL MAPS
Historical maps from 1943, 1977 and 1982 are presented in Appendix D (pages 27-29) and indicate that a
shed was present at the north-east corner of the site in 1943, with another structure (likely house) present
at the south-western boundary and an additional shed present just off-site to the south-east (refer Figure

a quarry is shown some 500m to the north-east.
A query of the historical map overly in Qld Globe returned one map, being a Town of Cooroy Lot map

Historical images held by Heritage Noosa (https://heritage.noosa.qld.gov.au) were reviewed, including:
• 1989 oblique aerial looking west (refer to Figure 10 and original image at
https://heritage.noosa.qld.gov.au/nodes/view/3584). The tree plantation present over the southern
portion of the site appears well established, although distressed vegetation is evident within a central
portion that may be correlated with differing soil conditions related to the presence of any imported fill.
- a recent oblique view looking west, dated 18/10/23, is presented on the report front cover.
• 1989 oblique aerial looking east (refer to Figure 11 and original image at
https://heritage.noosa.qld.gov.au/nodes/view/3586). The tops of the distressed trees within the
plantation are again present, with no other obvious changes to the historical aerials discussed in

Section 24
The historic aerial photographs generally correlate with desktop information and indicate:
• The generally low resolution of imagery and nature of the variable topography has resulted in
relatively large variations in shadows, albedo, and other topology effects. This has made it difficult to
ascertain land use changes with respect to smaller structures and topography features such as
depressions and pits.
• From the date of the earliest aerial photo in 1953 until at least 1967 the northern and mid portion of
the site appears to have been disturbed and then progressively levelled that may have included the
use of imported fill.
• From 1971 the site has remained vacant and essential unchanged with respect to the observable
land use.
3.14. DESIGNATED INVESTIGATION SITES
Other information presented in Appendix D (pages 10-13) indicates that there are no records for the site

3.15. RIGHT TO INFORMATION
A Right To Information (RTI) application was lodged with DESI requesting the following information:
• All documents relating to 62 Lake McDonald Drive, Cooroy, Qld 4563 (Lot 105 on SP118458), and
which may be located on the EMR, and which informs of any contamination or waste disposal on this
land including by night soil, bottle or general waste disposal, for the period 1 January 1955 to 13
February 2023.
DESI’s Environmental Services Regulation division stated that they do not hold any relevant documents
(refer to the RTI response presented at the end of Appendix E that also contains correspondence from
Council stating an RTI request with them would likely have a similar outcome).

Figure 13 Council information regarding potential disposal areas
This figure was compiled by Council based on several anecdotal information sources and observations by
the neighbouring Council cemetery manager Mr Troy Andreassen, who was interviewed on 24 March
2023 to confirm aspects of the provided information.
It is believed that the two areas of disposal are historical that occurred in the 1950’s and 60’s, which
accords with air photo observations of soil disturbance and potential infilling during this period. It is noted
that the air photos indicate additional potential for rubbish disposal activities to the west of the rectangular
area, up until the western site boundary. The northern night soil disposal area was reportedly performed
within trenches excavated into the natural ground.
3.16.2. MRS PATRICIA SPICER
As a former owner of the site from 1973 to 1999 and current resident living adjacent to the site, Mrs
Patricia Spicer has some 50 years of local knowledge and indicated the following during the interview
conducted at her home on 18 October 2023:
• Prior to owning the site freehold in 1973, they took over the special lease from Mr Bichel in the early
1970s and were aware of the prior use of the site for waste disposal.
• They constructed their house over the south-western corner of the larger Lot, and then around 1976
subdivided this 4,764m2 portion as Lot 1 SP118458 from the larger portion of land, being the subject
site.

• At the time of acquiring the land, they determined that the local brickworks had aligned their access
road incorrectly into the northern portion of their Lot (reportedly to preserve a pocket of clay located
further north). The northern Lot boundary was realigned into the present-day configuration to formally
vest the road encroachment to the brickworks. In return, the brickworks supplied bricks for
construction of their house as well as importing soil for use around the new house and assisted with
burying toilet cans as discussed in the below point.
• As shown on Figure 14 over page Mrs Spicer also recollected the following:
- a concentration of disused toilet cans (possibly 50 to 100 at the surface) were buried by the
brickworks at the request of the Spicers, along the western boundary to the north and adjacent
the cemetery.
- land to the south-west of the site was historically a dairy farm.
- around three or four mullock heaps (containing mostly broken glass) were located behind the
house area and in 1973 were bulldozed across the site to the east to flatten it out.
- two intermittent springs were sometimes present, the first being close to the rear property line of
their house and present during wet weather where the ground was particularly wet and often
caused the mower to become stuck. The second longer lasting intermittent spring was located to
the north-east corner of the site and usually had water in it, although it may have been disrupted
as part of major drainage works completed during the Noosa Reserve low density residential
housing development that is present to the immediate east of the site.

neighbour historically using the site to grow vegetables.

• The site was essentially the old Cooroy Tip that closed around 1949. It is believed that rubbish
disposal occurred over most of the southern portion of the site, including possible disposal in
trenches.
• Around 1973 the Council was concerned with groundsel weed infestation in the local area, and in
response the Spicers had most of the site bulldozed level. It was fairly level prior to use of the
bulldozer, but the site did have groundsel and dead trees present. After bulldozing they planted the
pine forest and other trees to form a canopy to assist with understory weed management.
• In the late 70’s or early 80s fire affected the site, including crowning through the tree canopy.
• Observed surface or other wastes encountered during digging regularly included numerous broken
glass (and occasional intact bottles), metal leaf spring car suspensions, car differentials and other
large metal items.
3.17. REGISTERED SERVICES INFORMATION
Registered services information from Before You Dig Australia is presented as Appendix M and indicates:
• There is no infrastructure present on-site associated with Unity Water (potable water supply and
sewer), Telstra and NBN (telecommunications), Council (stormwater) and Energex (power supply).
3.18. SITE INSPECTION
A site inspection was undertaken by the SQP on 24/2/23 with additional aerial inspection via drone
performed on 18/10/23. A summary of NEPM Schedule B2 Section 3.6 Site Inspection guidance as it
relates to the site is presented in Table 7 below.
Table 7 Site inspection summary per NEPM Sch B2 S.3.6
Current uses of the site and The site is mostly vacant although a shed has recently been
surrounding land constructed at the midwestern boundary for the purpose of
storing machinery used by Council cemetery staff. The shed
appears to be placed on an engineered pad that is likely to
have used an element of quarry sourced fill or similar (refer
Photo 1).
The northern third of the site is grassed with infrequent trees
and the southern two thirds housing mature trees of a similar
age that are planted in a grid pattern (refer Photo 2). A mowed
grassed track is maintained from the north-eastern site corner
that connects to the cemetery that adjoins the site to the west
(refer Photo 3). To the north is Lake Macdonald Drive and then
low density residential, which is also present to the immediate
east and south-west of the site. To the immediate south is
bushland.
The shed structure, and to a lesser extent the existing trees
and root balls, have potential to inhibit any required
investigation and remediation activities.
Soil (disturbed, bare patches, Areas of disturbed soil with surface waste comprising bottles,
coloured or stained) glass, cement sheeting fragments, metal, plastic and similar is
present within the forested southern area (refer Photo 4).

4. AREAS AND CHEMICALS OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN
The following AEC have been identified, which are discussed below and detailed within Table 8,
and the CSM presented in Section 5:
• AEC 1 - potential for night soil and bottles disposal over the northern portion of the site, based on the
desktop review and general area shown on Figure 13 in Section 3.16.
• AEC 2 – potential for rubbish disposal over the southern portion of the site, based on the desktop
review and site walkover observations, and as shown on Figure 13 in Section 3.16 that should be
considered the minimum area of potential impact, which may extend over the entire southern portion
and possibly as part of the AEC 1 northern area.
• AEC 3 - surface or groundwater migration pathways (including any springs) interacting with the
following potential contamination sources:
- any AEC 1 and 2 contamination present on-site (or similar wastes extending beyond the
upgradient site boundary) that could migrate and impact deeper soil or groundwater at the site,
with potential to further migrate off-site
- potential for the cemetery located upgradient to the west to be a source of contamination that, if
present, may impact the site primarily via groundwater migration.
Potential contaminants associated with historical waste disposal are wide ranging, comprising
aesthetically and geotechnically unsuitable solid wastes of varying materials, possible regulated waste
such as asbestos, tyres, nightsoil, chemical containers and residues, and interspersed soil impacted by
various materials or chemicals. This disposal was possibly semi-controlled in the case of AEC 1 and likely
uncontrolled in the case of AEC 2. Limited information was obtained by the desktop review regarding how
any waste disposal was managed or controlled.
Waste not containing putrescible waste is unlikely to generate landfill gas or leachate from the breakdown
of organic materials. Given the intervening time since deposition, risks associated with most biological
pathogens and current generation of organic leachates or landfill gas is low. Inorganic or chemically
persistent organic leachates may still be generated from percolation of rainwater or perched groundwater
subject to waste composition.
There is potential for contaminants to be mobile in the environment, including light and dense non-
aqueous phase liquids (LNAPL and DNAPL). LNAPL is lighter than water and will float on any surface or
groundwater it encounters. DNAPL vertical migration is not arrested by the presence of groundwater, and
they have a propensity to migrate vertically, however, their migration can be limited in clay rich soils.
With respect to LNAPL, DNAPL and other risks to groundwater, we note the half century or more since
deposition and natural attenuation factors that would mitigate some types of contamination. In addition,
permanent groundwater is likely to exist at a depth greater than 20mbgl. On this basis, any contaminants
from historical landfilling are likely to be concentrated within the fill profile and may have accumulated at
the base of the fill and interface with natural soil subject to mobility.
However, the potential for historical and current leachate generation and impacts such as to groundwater
from landfilling cannot be ruled out, nor the potential for surface wastes and chemical contamination to be
present or to have migrated off-site with any surface water flows such as during high intensity rainfall
event, or due to the footprint of the initial deposition area. No evidence of waste erosion or migration or
obvious surface expressions of groundwater was noted during the site walkover.

Section 32
The adjacent cemetery is an additional potential contamination source from the decomposition of human
bodies, including teeth fillings or prosthetics, and any related use of embalming or preservation chemicals
such as formaldehyde. The corrosion of steel or preserved wood coffins would be an additional potential
source of contaminants. Consequently, there is potential for contamination from the cemetery, such as
nutrients, pathogens, heavy metals and semi volatile organic substances, to leach into the groundwater
and migrate onto the subject site. The relatively small size and infrequency of the burials at the cemetery
reduces, but does not completely rule out, this potential for unacceptable impact to the subject site.

A CSM is the interpretation and assimilation of all site related information into assumptions and
hypotheses regarding contamination sources, subsurface contaminant distribution, and dominant
transport/fate processes (US EPA 1995). The CSM below was developed on the findings of desktop
assessment to date, walkover and resultant AEC and PCOC. The CSM is presented in Table 9 below and
