PART Response to Information Request · OPW11/0335

          The landscaping has been designed to maintain the unique natural context of the site,
          which abuts the Noosa National Park. An ecological analysis of the natural buffers to
          the wetlands adjacent to the national park has been conducted to protect the significant
          habitats of the national park and to ensure that stormwater runoff is properly managed to
          protect the ecological function of the wetland. Approximately one quarter of the
          development site has been allocated for environmental buffering (between 16 and 60 m
          in width), and weeds that presently exist in the buffer zone will be removed.

           The intensity of stormwater flows will be mitigated by a water storage tanks for each
           beach shack, and two (2) large underground water storage tanks for the apartment
           accommodation buildings, and one (1) large underground water storage tank for the
           commercial building. The captured water will be reused for non-potable domestic
           purposes (laundry, toilets), or for irrigation of the gardens. Stormwater will also be
           directed through a treatment train of Bio-retention Trenches with a gabion wall diffuser
           adjacent to the existing wetland area abutting the Noosa National Park. This treatment
           train is designed to achieve the water quality objectives listed in and Table 3-1.
