The location of GW2 is now the site of an industrial subdivision. In the event that the
allotment on which it is located is purchased and developed, this monitoring bore may no
longer be available.
1 We note that alterations of monitoring locations may adversely affect the previously
determined median values (as WQOs). As such, we would consider it inappropriate to
designate new monitoring points. Therefore, we would recommend that the water
monitoring program reduce the number of monitoring points to those receiving runoff
strictly relative to Noosa Civic.
1 Quarterly inspections of the roof water collection tanks indicated that mosquito and cane
toad larvae were not present, nor were the levels of sludge measurable. The interior of
the tanks appeared clean and well maintained.

7.0 RECOMMENDATIONS
We provide the following recommendations based on the monitoring undertaken to date:
1 •
•
Reduce number of monitoring locations to those which receive runoff strictly
exclusive to Noosa Civic.
Review relevance of Water Quality Objectives, (particularly dissolved oxygen).
• Elimination of GW2 from the monitoring program.
• Reduce water tank inspections to bi-annual.
• Utilise results from the next round of groundwater testing to determine if further
investigation of faecal coliform contamination is required, or if this was an
isolated event.
