                                                                                       2008/1491



      To ensure Council’s sewer main is accessible for maintenance purposes and is protected from
      risk of damage no new structures requiring a building permit (eg. buildings, swimming pools,
      retaining walls exceeding 1m in height, raised terraces, raised decks, etc) and other masonry,
      brick or concrete block walls shall be constructed within this ‘zone of influence’ or within 1.5m
      of the centreline of the sewer main, whichever is the greater. In this regard the design plans
      shall be amended to ensure that the proposed building and any other relevant structures are
      located clear of the zone of influence and are clearly shown on all plans submitted for Building
      Works approval.
18.   A clear area of 1.0 metre must be maintained around the sewerage inspection opening. Where
      the sewerage inspection opening is located within a driveway, the opening point must be
      raised to the finished surface level of the driveway with a brass cap.
Town Water Supply
19.   The site must be connected to Council’s existing town water supply and be constructed in
      accordance with Council’s standards and requirements at no cost to Council.
20.   The water service from the Council reticulated water system must extend to the property
      boundary and be metered, at no cost to Council. The water meter must be located outside the
      property boundary and in an easily assessable location to facilitate unhindered reading by
      Council and/or Council’s contracted water meter readers. The water meter must be clear of any
      proposed driveway and not behind fences or locked gates. In this regard, approval of the water
      meter configuration and location must be obtained from the Sunshine Coast Water Manager
      prior to Building Works Approval.
Acid Sulfate Soils
21.   As the site is located below the level of 5m above AHD, any excavation works consisting of
            3                                                      3
      100m or greater and/or any filling works consisting of 500m or greater and with an average
      depth of 0.5m or greater will need to be carried out in accordance with State Planning Policy
      2/02 Planning and Managing Development Involving Acid Sulfate Soils and in accordance with
      the management, treatment and monitoring requirements detailed in the document titled Acid
      Sulfate Management Plan for a proposed Development at 51 Witta Circle, Noosa Heads, by
      Bio-Track, dated 26 August 2008 except as modified herein.
      All structures located within saline, sulphurous or acid soil or groundwater must be resistant
      against the corrosive effects of saline, sulphurous or acid soils or groundwater.
      An appropriately qualified person must provide certification with the application for Building
      Works Permit that the building materials proposed to be used within structures to be located
      within saline, sulphurous or acid soil or groundwater are resistant against the corrosive effects
      of saline, sulphurous or acid soils or groundwater.
      Corrective measures must be implemented as detailed in the document titled Response to a
      Request for Information relating to Acid Sulfate Management Plan for a proposed
      Development at 51 Witta Circle, Noosa Heads by Bio-Track, dated 7 October 2008.
      No excavations are permitted below the upper level of the groundwater table. In this respect,
      plans submitted for any Building Works Permit must be amended to ensure no excavations are
      planned to occur below 0.61m above AHD.
Erosion and Sediment Control
22.   Any person acting on this permit must prevent erosion and sediment export from leaving the
      site. Site control measures such as silt fencing, controlled gravel access to the site and
      controlled disposal of waste, will be necessary.
      In this regard, plans detailing the methods of controlling erosion and sediment in accordance
      with the Healthy Waterways document and fact sheet series titled Controlling Stormwater
      Pollution on your Building Site dated 2006 are required to be submitted with the application to
      seek a Building Works Permit.
