1.0 Introduction
1.1     Background
This report is to accompany and be considered part of an application to Sunshine Coast Regional Council
for a proposed multiple unit development at Lot 4 Hofmann Drive, Noosaville.


1.2     Scope
Empire Engineering Pty Ltd was commissioned by Knowles Group Pty Ltd to develop a Site Based
Stormwater Management Plan (SWMP) to outline water management strategies for the proposed
development that will comply with Council’s relevant planning scheme policies, Queensland Development
Code and the Environmental Protection Act (1994) and its associated Environmental Protection (Water)
Policy 1997.

This report presents the results of a SWMP outlining the proposed measures to be adopted in relation to
stormwater quality management and stormwater quantity management for the site in question.


1.3     Existing Topography
The subject site is described as Lot 4 on SP 222982 with a total area of 6189m2. The site is bounded by
Hofmann Drive to the north-east and an environmental reserve to the remaining boundaries. The site is
currently a vacant lot with an existing swale running along the western boundaries of the site. Stormwater
from the site currently sheetflows into the swale which discharges into the environmental reserve
adjacent to the site.
