                      Environment (Erosion and Sediment Control)
               26.    Prescribed Water Contaminants (as defined in the Environmental Protection Act 1994) must
                      not be released from the site or to waters within the site, or be likely to be released should
                      rainfall occur, unless all reasonable and practicable measures are taken to prevent or
                      minimise the release and concentration of contamination.
               27.    The contractor must ensure non-essential exposure of soil is prevented by restricting the
                      extent of works and minimising the duration of soil exposure to adverse weather conditions.
                      Exposed areas must be suitably covered/stabilised/reinstated as soon as practicable and
                      prior to any predicted rainfall occurring.
               28.    Erosion and sediment control measures must be installed and maintained to minimise
                      erosion on the site and to minimise the export of sediment and associated pollutants from
                      the site. The erosion and sediment control measures must be designed, installed and
                      maintained in accordance with current best practice standards (refer to advisory notes).
               FOLLOWING CONSTRUCTION
               29.    A final inspection and approval of the new driveways and completed reinstatement works by
                      Council’s Inspector is required. Please contact Council on 5329 6500 to arrange for the
                      inspection.
               30.    Upon completion of the work a certificate must be issued by an RPEQ certifying that the
                      works have been constructed in accordance with the requirements of this Operational Works
                      permit and that the driveways are safe for the intended use.
                      Bonds
               31.    Bonds must:
                      a.      meet the requirements of council’s relevant Planning Scheme Policy for performance
                              and uncompleted works.
                      b.      be lodged with Council.
                      c.      be requested for release by writing to Council, when relevant approval requirements
                              have been met.

               6.     ADVISORY NOTES

               The following notes are included for guidance and information purposes only and do not form part
               of the assessment manager conditions:
                      General Advisory Notes
               1.     As the driveways are private structures, the owner bears full responsibly for the standard of
                      their construction, maintenance and any liabilities associated with their construction. It is
                      recommended that professional advice be sought for the construction of the driveway to
                      ensure that the driveway is constructed in accordance with the approved plans and the
                      standard drawing.
               2.     Council has undertaken an audit check of the Operational Works drawings in relations to the
                      proposed works. A detailed check of the calculations and drawings has not been undertaken,
                      as they have been certified by a RPEQ. The RPEQ bears full responsibility for all aspects
                      of the engineering design. Council reserves the right to require further amendments and/or
                      additions at a later date should design errors become apparent.
               3.     Council reserves the right to call up any performance bond held or levy charges against the
                      property, should emergency works be required to be undertaken by Council to make the site
                      safe due to inactivity on the development site for extended periods of time.
