Minor Change Existing Approval MCU18/0009.05 [As Published]
The application for operational works must include a detailed Erosion and Sediment control
plan prepared by a Certified Professional in Erosion and Sediment Control, in accordance
with the International Erosion Control Association Best Practice Book Series, including:
a. The Erosion and Sediment Control Plan must include for staging of construction to
minimise the area of exposed soils at all times to an area whereby the contractor can
practically cover all exposed soils with materials that will prevent the movement of soil
(i.e. to a c-factor of 0.5) prior to any forecast rain event nominated and/or observed as
likely to cause runoff from the site, regardless of whether those exposed areas flow to
a sediment basin.
b. A sufficient supply of materials nominated as the contingency to cover exposed soils
must be on site at all times, along with appropriate machinery and personnel for their
deployment.
c. The Erosion and Sediment Control Plan shall also include a High Efficiency flow
through sediment basin sized and operated to treat 90% of the flows and to act as final
polishing and contingency to achieve 50mgTSS/L where cover of exposed soils fails.
The flow through sediment basin must remain operational from commencement of
construction until the site is stabilised for operational purposes, regardless of the area
of exposed soil.
d. Chemicals used for dosing of the flow through sediment basin must be proven to not
become bioavailable or harm the ecology within the receiving wetland.
31. The wetland habitat below the Q100 line (1% AEP) must be protected from any risk of water
balance changes or chemical changes associated with construction activities and the
conduct of the approved use. A detailed Wetland and Swamp Crayfish Habitat Protection
Management Plan must be submitted with any operational works application to demonstrate
the wetland habitat will be protected from construction activities and the conduct of the
approved use. The Wetland and Swamp Crayfish Habitat Protection Management Plan must
demonstrate:
a. The water quality necessary for ongoing protection of the wetland;
b. How the Erosion and Sediment Controls for the site will prevent release of any
constructed generated sediments and chemicals to the wetland; and
c. The ecological and biological requirements of the Swamp Crayfish and how these will
be protected during construction and operation of the development.
LANDSCAPE & ECOLOGY
Landscaping & Vegetation Clearing
32. The development site must be landscaped. The works must be undertaken in accordance
with an Operational Works approval and the Noosa Plan for that specific area and must
include in particular:
a. Deleted.
b. Provide detail of the number of mature native trees (>150mm DBH) including species
and canopy spread, proposed to be removed to facilitate all aspects of the development
proposal.
c. Provide details of the methods to be used during the vegetation clearing including the
use of licensed spotter/catchers, disposal of cleared vegetation, methods to ensure
retained vegetation is protected from development works, in particular where works are
proposed adjacent to root zones of vegetation located on the road reserve with
reference to AS 4390 -2009 and amendments Protection of Trees on Development
Sites
d. Provide details of the treatment of environmental and declared weeds on the site.
33. Existing trees on the site and within road reserves are to be retained, except where required
to be removed due to building operations or the conduct of the approved use.
