        10.2.       CURRENT SITE USE – INTERIM CONTAMINATION MANAGEMENT
                    Previous advice for interim contamination management remains valid and it is recommended that general
                    access be restricted over the southern forested portion of the site that houses AEC 2 until such time that
                    a decision on the future use of the site is finalised.
                    Should redevelopment not occur in the short term, on-going access restrictions or remediation will still be
                    required to minimise potential human interaction with surface contaminants and waste. Additional
                    management controls will also be required to safeguard any proposed soil disturbance or export from the
                    entire site.

                    •    General access should be restricted to council personnel performing essential business, with a safety
                         plan prepared prior to access.
                    •    There is to be no soil disturbance within the southern restricted area without an appropriate task
                         specific safety plan prepared in consultation with a suitably qualified person.

                    •    Any soil disturbance in other areas of the site should be undertaken cognisant of the potential for
                         contaminated land risks to occur. In accordance with legislative requirements for land on (or that
                         should be on) the EMR, no soil is to be exported from the site without additional assessment by a
                         suitably qualified person or under a Soil Disposal Permit.

                    •    The recently constructed shed at the mid-western site boundary appears has been constructed on an
                         engineered platform and it is likely that contamination impact extends under this building platform.
                         General above ground use of the shed structure by cemetery staff will not have any adverse
                         implications with respect to contaminated land matters and potential health effects, however, without
                         remediation this land and any connected land over the affected Lot (current or reconfigured) will
                         remain on the EMR.


        10.3.       FUTURE SITE USE – REMEDIATION OR MANAGEMENT
                    Remediation or management will be required under all future land use scenarios, with residential
                    development (or a similar sensitive land use) not permissible without first removing all or a portion of the
                    site from the EMR. This is achieved by remediating unacceptable contamination usually by removal off-
                    site to landfill although a less sensitive land use may be achieved by the on-site retention of
                    contamination (if appropriate) that is managed under a statutory Site Management Plan (SMP) attached
                    to the site EMR listing.
                    A mix of these options may be possible if the site was reconfigured into multiple Lots, subject to
                    environmental suitability and regulatory requirements. Further information on how contaminated land is
                    assessed and managed is presented as Appendix B. The general remediation options to facilitate site
                    redevelopment are:

                    •    On-site capping or containment in accordance with jurisdictional requirements.
                         -    On-site options would generally be capping over the in-situ contamination or excavating then
                              concentrating the contamination in an on-site containment cell. Both options have EMR and
                              development limitations and may require Lot reconfiguration if removing some of the site from the
                              EMR is required to legally allow the proposed development, as is the case for any required low
                              density residential development and some other sensitive uses per the planning legislation.
                    •    Off-site disposal to an appropriate waste facility under a Soil Disposal Permit.
