7.    Excavation of the site and the construction of the proposed works shall not have any adverse
      affects on the stability of adjoining buildings and/or structures and/or services and/or lands. In
      this regard a Registered Professional Engineer Queensland shall supervise the excavation of
      the site and the construction of the new works to determine whether any additional measures
      are required to protect the stability of adjoining buildings and/or structures and/or services
      and/or lands.
8.    The use of vibratory equipment of any kind is not permitted to be used (including vibrating rollers
      and the use of vibrating installation techniques for sheet piling and other construction vibrations
      caused by excavating, earthmoving or demolition machinery or other similar construction
      techniques) unless approved and supervised by a Certified Geotechnical Engineer. Under such
      circumstances the operator of such equipment shall at all times comply with the directions of the
      Geotechnical engineer and the reasonable and lawful directions of Council officers.
9.    All parts of the works (including excavation, retaining structures, tie backs etc) are to be wholly
      contained within the subject site. Any subground structures (support anchors, tie backs etc) to
      be utilised into adjoining properties, shall only be used if written permission has been granted by
      the adjoining property owners.
10.   Certification of the completed works must be provided to Council by the supervising engineer.
      The certification shall state that the completed works conform with all aspects of the design and
      that the completed works will not have any adverse affects on the stability of adjoining buildings
      and/or structures and/or services and/or lands.
11.   Suitable sediment control devices ("in pit” pollution control devices) shall be temporarily installed
      into the first existing external downstream stormwater structure.
      These devices are to be checked and cleaned on a regular basis and specifically after each rain
      event.
      These devices are to remain in place during the civil works and construction phases of the
      development.
      The location and type of device to be installed shall be established at the “pre start” meeting
      with Council’s Construction Technical Officer and shall be installed prior to the commencement
      of any works.
12.   Council’s Construction Technical Officer – Michael Conroy (ph 0410 512 505), shall be given
      seven (7) days’ notice of intention to commence works to arrange a “pre start” meeting prior to
      the commencement of works.

      documentation to carry out the works. The principal contractor is also responsible to ensure that
      any sub contractors also have the appropriate insurance and public liability documentation.
14.   Prior to the “pre start” meeting, the principal contractor must be provided with a copy of
      Council’s signed approved drawings and conditions by the applicant.
15.   The Consulting Engineers for the project shall be currently Registered Professional Engineers
      of Queensland (RPEQ). The consulting engineers are responsible for arranging all inspections,
      with Council’s Construction Technical Officer or nominated staff. Council’s Construction
      Technical Officer shall provide an inspection form for signing off by the Engineer at appropriate
      stages of construction, during on-site meetings. Construction Technical Officer will also sign the
      form at each stage when conditions required have been satisfied. The works will be accepted
      “On Maintenance” after this form, signed by the inspector for each stage is complete, together
      with a letter from the Engineer requesting that the works go “On Maintenance”.
16.   Prior to works commencing, Council is to be advised of the Engineer (RPEQ) supervising the
      project. (This person will be the contact for the project).
17.   Council standards shall apply to these works unless otherwise modified herein.
