a. Minimise Erosion
i. For areas of the site which drain to a sediment basin, implement drainage and
erosion control measures prior to rainfall which prevent or minimise rill erosion
and gully erosion
ii. For areas of the site which do not drain to a sediment basin, implement drainage
and erosion control measures prior to rainfall (including contingency measures)
which prevent or minimise erosion, including rain drop erosion, chemical erosion,
rill erosion and gully erosion
iii. Prior to the final inspection for the development, all site surfaces must be
effectively stabilised using methods which have achieved effective short-term
stabilisation and which will continue to achieve effective stabilisation in the
medium to long-term. For the purpose of this condition, an effectively stabilised
surface is defined as one that does not, or is not likely to result in visible evidence
of soil loss caused by sheet, rill or gully erosion or lead to sedimentation, or lead
to water contamination.
b. Manage concentrated stormwater flows
i. Prior to each rainfall event ensure concentrated stormwater flow paths are
provided with capacity in accordance with IECA (2008) Table 4.3.1 and are
structurally stable in all rainfall events for the following sources:
(a) From stormwater catchments upslope of the area of disturbance
which are either stable or external to the site, ensure stormwater is diverted
or managed either:
i. around the site or through the site without causing erosion and
without contaminating the flow; or
ii. if it is impractical to convey the flows around or through the site,
convey the flows into appropriately sized sediment basins without
causing erosion
(b) From all disturbed areas of the site to sediment basin(s) without causing
erosion
c. Minimise sediment released from the site
i. Install and maintain additional sediment control measures within the site, as
necessary to maximise sediment capture.
ii. Minimise the tracking of material from the site onto roadways. Ensure that all
material on roadways caused by vehicles leaving the site is removed without
causing water contamination, prior to rainfall and at least at the end of each work
day.
69. Sediment and erosion control measures must be in place prior to works commencing. If such
measures are not in place or are not satisfactory, “on the spot” fines may be issued. Such
fines can be issued if sediments from the site are found to enter or have the potential to enter
Council’s stormwater system, natural waterways, any downstream stormwater filtration
system or adversely impacting on other properties. The sediment and erosion control design
and measures have NOT been approved, it is the site's Supervising Engineer who is
responsible for ensuring that the sediment and erosion control measures have:
a. Been duly designed by an RPEQ or CPESC and constructed in accordance with "best
practise" methods,
b. Been revised by an RPEQ or CPESC to address the issues raised by changes in the
projected construction schedule and/or methods,
c. Been revised to address predicted rainfall events, and
d. Achieve the desired environmental outcomes.
