               11.    Should any changes or modifications to the approved plans be required as a result of
                      construction constraints, a “Request to change an existing approval” under the Planning Act
                      2016 must be made. Amended plans clearly indicating the changes must be lodged with this
                      application along with the appropriate fees.

                      Prestart, On and Off Maintenance Inspections Request
               13.    Contact Council on 5329 6500 to arrange a prestart or an inspection giving a minimum of 5
                      business days notice of preferred inspection time.
               14.    If Council officers are required to undertake additional inspections of the same works, a
                      reinspection fee will be applicable in accordance with Council’s Fees and Charges register
                      applicable at the time.
               15.    A minimum maintenance period of 12 months will apply to all municipal works and thereafter
                      until such time as the works are performing in accordance with the approved design unless
                      noted otherwise.
               16.    Accepted best practice standards include International Erosion Control Association
                      Australasia Best Practice Erosion and Sediment Control.
               17.    Qualified Person, for the purpose of erosion and sediment control is a Certified Professional
                      in Erosion and Sediment Control (CPESC) or suitably experienced Registered Professional
                      Engineer of Queensland (RPEQ).
               18.    As a general rule, a site is determined to have achieved effective short-term stabilisation if
                      at the time of the plan sealing inspection:
                      a.      Methods of stabilisation are:
                              •    appropriate for slopes and slope lengths; and
                              •    are consistent with best practice environmental management practices such as in
                                   the Manual for Erosion and Sediment Control or the IECA Manual; and
                      b.      Stormwater runoff from the site is not currently, and is not likely to result in visible
                              evidence of sedimentation or erosion, or lead to water contamination.
                              If at the time of request for final inspection, the method of short-term stabilisation has
                              not achieved a level of stability that Council's Officers believe will have a high
                              probability of achieving long term stability, Council Officers may take the following
                              matters into consideration in determining whether the site is capable of achieving
                              medium to long-term stability:
                              •    evidence that the site has been effectively stabilised in the short term;
                              •    evidence that soil has been adequately ameliorated;
                              •    evidence that seed of annual and perennial grass species has been applied at an
                                   adequate rate; and
                              •    that grass seed has germinated at a density that is likely to achieve an effective
                                   grass cover.
                      Retention of Existing Trees
               19.    The existing trees on adjoining properties must be retained and protected during construction
                      wherever achievable. To avoid doubt, this advisory note is not intended to exclude the
                      operation of Chapter 3 of the Neighbourhood Dispute Resolution Act 2011 following
                      construction of the development which is the subject of this development approval.
                      Removal of Existing Trees and Vegetation
               20.    Stockpiling mulch to the appropriate volume and separation is required for fire mitigation as
                      well as optimum weed seed sterilisation.
