    Advisory Notes
    1.    Council has undertaken an audit check of the Operational Works drawings in relation
          to the proposed works. A detailed design check of the calculations and drawings has
          not been undertaken, as they have been certified by a RPEQ. The RPEQ bears full
          responsibility for all aspects of the engineering design. Council reserves the right to
          require further amendments and/or additions at a later date, should design errors
          become apparent.
    2.    Council reserves the right to call up any performance bond held or levy charges
          against the property, should emergency works be required to be undertaken by
          Council to make the site safe due to inactivity on the development site for extended
          periods of time.
    3.    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
          Sustainable Planning Act 2009 must be made. Amended plans clearly indicating the
          changes must be lodged with this application along with the appropriate fees.
    4.    The Environmental Protection Act 1994 states that a person must not carry out any
          activity that causes, or is likely to cause, environmental harm unless the person takes
          all reasonable and practicable measures to prevent or minimise the harm.
          Environmental harm includes environmental nuisance. In this regard, persons and
          entities involved in the construction and operation of this development are to adhere
          to their ‘general environmental duty’ to minimise the risk of causing environmental
          harm.
