1.0      SUMMARY

This report has been revised in response to Noosa Council’s 18 July 2014 information request. Responses
to the relevant items in that information request are stated in Section 3 of the report. The applicant has
also received a copy of a 3 September 2014 submission to Council from the owners of an adjoining
property (JR & F Saunders), and comments on that submission are stated in Section 4 of the report.

This analysis has found that the development’s stormwater detention requirement can be achieved by
deliberately “roughening” the floodways (by revegetating the riparian zones, as required by Council), by
excavating a side-storage alongside the western tributary, and by constructing a restrictive footbridge
across the eastern tributary to back-up the flood profiles in that floodway, to augment the small amount of
conventional detention storage that can be gained in two bio-basins on the site (as in Figures 9 to 12).

In fact, the nett gains in flood storage volumes generated by these works will substantially exceed the
detention volumes that would otherwise be required of a fully conventional detention system, as shown in
Table 1, below.

      Detention)

The abovementioned works, together with a minor regrading of the invert profile around node 5 (as also
shown on Figure 10) will result in the development having practically nil adverse impact on flood levels
on adjoining properties, as summarised in Tables 19 to 21 of this report.

The works will also result in practically nil adverse impact on downstream peak flow rates, apart from a
slight increase in flows along the western tributary through the immediately adjoining downstream
property (No2 Pearsons Road). That increase in creek flows across the adjoining property results from the
deliberate diversion of local runoff away from that adjoining property, and directly to the western
floodway upstream of that property. Downstream of the natural point of inflow to the floodway for that
runoff, the flows revert to their pre-development rates.

The consequent flood levels for design of the development are summarised in Tables 19 to 21 and in
Figure 13 of this report. A sensitivity test has identified the impact of uncontrolled floodplain regrowth
on the abovementioned design levels. The consequent 100 year flood levels are summarised in Table 24
and in Figure 13, and appropriate account should be taken of these levels when considering appropriate
design levels for the development.

2.0      INTRODUCTION

This report describes Brisbane Stormwater Management P/L’s (BSM’s) stormwater detention and
flooding assessment of a proposed subdivision of Lot 2 on RP173883 and Lots 135, 136 and 137 on
MCH978, at Elm Street and Lake Macdonald Drive, Cooroy. The site locality and the proposed lot layout
are shown in Figure 1 of this report.

The site is traversed by two tributaries of Six Mile Creek, hereafter described as the eastern and western
tributaries. The catchment areas of the two tributaries are shown in Figure 4, and the tributary floodways
can be seen in more detail in Figure 6.

Some of the increased stormwater runoff from the proposed residential areas is proposed to be mitigated
by conventional detention volumes in two bio-retention basins, but most of the increased runoff is
proposed to be attenuated by an increase in the floodway storage on the site. The increased floodway
storage will be achieved by deliberately “roughening” the floodways (by revegetating the riparian zones,
as required by Council), by excavating a side-storage alongside the western tributary, and by constructing
a restrictive footbridge across the eastern tributary to back-up the flood profiles in that floodway.

Hydraulic model analyses of the interaction between increased site runoff and floodway through-flows
can be skewed by “hydrograph separation”, whereby the urbanisation of a particular site is predicted to
hasten the discharge of the increased site runoff down the floodway before the arrival of the major
floodway flows from the upstream catchment – which can lead to a perception that the peak flow-rates
along the floodway will not be significantly increased, which in turn leads to a perception that little or no
attenuation volume is required. This perception may be valid for a site development that is considered in
isolation, but it becomes invalid when the “equal opportunity” development of all such sites in the
catchment is collectively considered. To overcome that modelling difficulty without resorting to a
catchment-wide “equal opportunity” analysis, this assessment has firstly determined the detention volume
that would be required for a fully-conventional system of dedicated basins on the site’s stormwater
outlets. The assessment was thereafter focussed on achieving at least that volume from the proposed
combination of bio-basin detention and increased floodway volume, while also using a floodway model
to verify that the proposed changes to the floodway profiles on the site would not adversely affect the
flood profiles upstream and downstream of the site.

The development proposal is particularly cognisant of the need to not increase local stormwater
discharges (as distinct from tributary channel through-flows) onto an adjoining property to the north –
namely No 2 Pearsons Road (refer Figure 1), which is also referred to herein as the Saunders property.
This is proposed to be achieved by diverting part of the runoff from the relevant sub-catchment, directly
across to the western tributary floodway within the site. This diversion proposal had to be accounted in
the floodway modelling process.

The assessment process was therefore structured as follows:

-     Determination of the required detention volume - as described in Section 5 of this report.

-     Devising a diversion mechanism, in liaison with the applicant’s civil consultant (Callaghan & Toth),
      to ensure no increase in stormwater discharges to No 2 Pearson Road – as described in Section 6.

-     Calculation of the runoff rates to the floodways and running them though floodway models of the pre
      and post-development scenarios – as described in Sections 7 to 9.

3.0     RESPONSE TO NOOSA COUNCIL INFORMATION REQUEST

The following comments are offered in response to Noosa Council’s information request of 18 July 2014.
The requests are reproduced in italics, with a response immediately following each request:

1.      The report details that in a Q100 event an additional 1,585m³ of storage is to be provided. Only
        252 m³ is proposed to be provided in detention basins and the balance has been created by
        floodplain roughness via the planting of vegetation. This equates to nearly 85% of the storage to
        rely on vegetation plantings. Council will not accept this form of detention.

In the previous report, the 100 year volume in the bio-basins was, as noted above, 252 cubic metres.
However, the 1747 cubic metre gain in 100 year floodway volume included about 200 cubic metres of
“hard” storage from the headwater afflux at the proposed footbridge, which was not separately identified
in that previous report. This took the total “hard” storage increase to about 450 cubic metres, leaving the
vegetation (”soft” storage) to account for at least the remaining 1135 cubic metres (or about 72 percent)
of the 1585 cubic metre requirement.

In this revised report, an additional 424 cubic metre side-storage is proposed to be excavated into the
overbank area alongside the northern bank of the western channel at node 29.5. Furthermore, the opening
area of the footbridge across the eastern channel is proposed to be significantly reduced, which will in
turn raise the 10 year headwater level and consequently the deck level by 0.13 metre, which will further
raise the upstream afflux storage. The nett effect of these changes will be a significantly increased
proportion of “hard’ storage, and conversely a significantly reduced requirement for “soft” storage to
make up the required overall volume. The revised make-up of the volumes, for ARI’s of 1, 10 and 100
years, is summarised in Table 2, below.

Table 2: Relative Proportions of “Hard” and “Soft” Flood Storage
 ARI (years)                                           1          10            100
 Required Volume (m3)                                 395        910            1585
 Proposed Hard Storage (m3)
 - Footbridge                                          4         635            690
 - Other (bio-basins, channel cut/fill, side-storage) 187        114            274
 - Total hard storage                                 191        749            964
 - Proportion of requirement                          48%        82%            61%
 Remainder, Soft Storage, Req’d (m3)                  204        161            621
 - Proportion of requirement                          52%        18%            39%
 Actual Soft Storage Proposed (m3)                    344        998            1582

Given that the hard storage is now proposed to make up about half or more of the overall storage
requirement, and that the soft storage will provide about twice or more of the remaining overall
requirement, this outcome is suggested to be an appropriate strategy in the longer-term context.

The appropriateness of the strategy in the shorter-term horizon, relative to the timeframe required for the
revegetation to become reasonably well-established, can be seen in the context of the planned progress of
the development platform vis-à-vis the planned progress of the floodplain storage works. The next stage
of the development is Stage 5, which comprises the remainder of the area labelled “Model D” on Figure 2
of this report. The equivalent detention requirements for the “Model D” area (from Section 5 of this
report) are compared to the hard storage that will be constructed during that stage, in Table 3, on the
following page of this report. Apart from a slight shortfall at the 1 year ARI level, the hard storage


      Brisbane Stormwater Management Pty Ltd Document File: ValkevSDF.Doc                           Page 5

Page 7

constructed during this stage will easily offset the detention requirement for this stage. The riparian
vegetation for the eastern tributary will be planted during this stage and, even when only newly planted, it
should substantially offset the shortfall in hard storage at the 1 year ARI level. The subsequent growth of
that vegetation will confirm the over-provision of storage for Stage 5 and provide a surplus of storage for
the start of subsequent stages.

 - Total (m3)                         53          698          753
 - % Of Requirement                  73%         367%         215%


2.      The report outlines 50mm of afflux upstream in a Q100 event relying on externalities to the site
        for justification. Any afflux will not be supported.

The above request relates to flood levels at node 23 of the flood model, in the western tributary, upstream
of the site. This revision of the report is based on a revised floodway design, in which the western
tributary channel between nodes 23 and 25 of the flood model is now proposed to be revegetated to a
similar density as the existing channel (estimated Manning’s n value 0.055), rather than roughened to a
Manning’s n value of 0.068 as in the previous design. Consequently, the affluxes at node 23 of the flood
model are now less than zero (i.e. beneficial).


3.      The 100mm impact reported at Node 29 results in localised peak flood level impacts at 2
        Pearson’s Rd. Agreement by the owner should be provided acknowledging the flood impact on
        their property.

The previously reported 100 mm impact was an anomalous prediction, given that the profile of the
floodway at this location was proposed to be lowered by about 200 mm. Testing of the model’s
sensitivities revealed some issues with respect to the manner in which the software simulated the effect of
a “hump” in invert of the existing channel, downstream of node 29, leading to an erroneous prediction of
the pre-development flood levels at node 29. The model has since been revised, with an additional node
(29.5) located on the crest of the existing “hump”, thereby correcting the anomalous prediction. The
model of the post-development scenario has also been revised in this area, with the addition of a 424
cubic metre side-storage to be excavated into the overbank area alongside the northern bank of the
channel at node 29.5. The nett result of these changes is that there is now predicted to be a – 140 mm
afflux, rather than the previous + 100 mm afflux, at node 29.


4.      The western tributary is a minor waterway for fish passage. Given the extent of works in the
        waterway and the proposed works are an integral part of the modelling, Council recommends the
        applicant gain written support from DAFF for the proposed works.

5.      Please confirm that the maximum flow through the bio retention swales in a Q100 event do not
        exceed 1.0m/s in accordance with Healthy Waterways Design Guidelines.

Refer to Callaghan & Toth response.


6.      Please confirm Q100 flood depths over the footbridge. It is unclear of the blockage factor that has
        been applied to the bridge and handrail and its impact on flood levels.

The Q100 flood depth over the footbridge, as per the design in the previous (original) edition of this
report was 0.19 metre. This revised report includes a revised design for the footbridge, including the
removal of the land-spans and a 0.13 metre raising of the deck level. The revised Q100 headwater level is
0.20 metre above the revised deck level, resulting in about 0.16 metre depth of water across the deck and
a DxV product of 0.15. With 50 % blockage of the bridge opening and 100% blockage of the handrails,
the Q100 headwater level rises to 0.28 metre above the deck level and the DxV product increases to
0.255 – which is within safe limits.

A complete listing of 100 year upstream water levels, with 50% blockage of the bridge opening and
100% blockage of the handrails, is given in Table 24 of this report.


7.      The hydrologic regime is proposed to be changed over 2 Pearson’s road in a minor event. Please
        provide owners consent from 2 Pearsons Road for this change to hydrological flows on their
        property.

        a.     No comment on the environmental impact of this (2 Pearsons Road) change to the
               hydrological flow has been provided.

Refer to Callaghan & Toth response.

4.0     RESPONSE TO SAUNDERS SUBMISSION

J R and F Saunders wrote to Noosa Council on 3 September 2014, requesting clarification of particular
aspects of the original edition of this report, and expressing concern about possible local stormwater
impacts on their property. The Saunders property is marked on Figure 9 of this revision of this report.

Their requests are reproduced in italics, below, with a response immediately following each request:

On page 15 of the study, there are three groups of columns, but they are not labelled with recurrence
intervals. Please confirm there are from left to right: 10 Year, 20 Year and 50 Year.

The three columns should indeed have been labelled 10 Year, 20 Year and 50 Year. The oversight has
been corrected in this revised report.

Using Figure 6, we understand the nearest model node to our property is Node 29. On page 15, assumed
Q10, Node 29, the afflux is 1.07 metres with a flood level of 100.957 metres. This afflux seems to be
incorrect because:

1. assumed Q20 has an afflux of 0.09 meters with a flood level of 100.033 meters

2. for assumed Q10, the flood level does not fall from Nodes 28 > 29 > 30

The quoted afflux was indeed incorrect, and resulted from the incorrect transcription of the post-
development flood level as 100.957, when it should have been transcribed as 99.957, which would have
resulted in afflux of 0.07 metres. Incidentally, the modelling has since been revised, with more detail in
this particular area of the model network, and the affluxes at node 29 are now less than zero.

… we are concerned about the potential for scouring in our property if there is not an appropriate energy
dissipation structure on the overland flow path located near our side fence and between proposed lots 39
and 40. We believe that this structure should be located within the development.

The peak-rates of local runoff across the boundary at this location will be substantially reduced, by
diversion of flow eastward within the development, and this will substantially lessen the likelihood of
scouring. Any other works that may be required to ensure that the velocity and concentration of the
remaining flows across the boundary are no worse than existing, will be part of the normal operational
works design for such a scenario.

5.0     STORMWATER DETENTION REQUIREMENT

As already noted in Section 1, the increased rates of stormwater runoff from the site are proposed to be
mitigated partly by conventional detention storage in two bio-basins and partly by increased floodway
storage on the site, with a requirement that the combined volume of those two storages should be at least
equal to the detention volume that would be required for a fully-conventional system.

The detention volume that would be required for a fully-conventional system has been determined by
compiling hydrologic models of four distinct parts of the proposed development platform, notated as
models A, B, C and D in Figure 2 of this report.

The attenuation objective for each of the four models was set by Rational Method calculations of the pre-
and post-development peak flow rates, as summarised in Tables 1 and 2 hereafter. The contributing areas
shown for Area A in Tables 4 and 5 are slightly less than the actual area of 2.49 hectare, because of
partial-area criticality (refer Figure 2 for partial-area limits).

Version 3.5g of the URBS software was used as the basis for the hydrological models of Areas A to D.
Each of those areas was modelled as a sub-area network, using the subdivision lines indicated on Figure
2. Each of the four models was based on post-development conditions and was calibrated to closely
match its peak outflow rates to the Rational Method calculations of the post-development flow rates (as
in Table 5). A hypothetical detention basin was then added to the outlet of each model, with its storage-
discharge characteristics adjusted so as to reduce the peak outflow rates to the Rational Method
calculations of the pre-development flow rates (as in Table 4). The resultant storage requirements are
summarised in Table 6, below:

6.0     STORMWATER DISCHARGES TO No 2 PEARSONS ROAD

A catchment area of 2.49 hectares presently drains across the northern boundary of the site and onto No 2
Pearsons Road, as shown for the pre-development scenario in Figure 3. Local stormwater discharges onto
the adjoining property will be maintained at or below their existing rates by diverting part of the runoff
from the relevant catchment, directly across to the western tributary floodway within the site, as shown
for the post-development scenario in Figure 3.

The existing discharge rates to the adjoining property, as calculated by the Rational Method for the
partial-area of 2.43 hectares shown in Figure 3, are summarised in Table 7 below:

Table 7:        Rational Method Calculations Of Pre-Development Peak Flow Rates To No 2 Pearson Road
 C10          Tc                    I (mm/hr)                 A                          Q (m3/s)
             (min)    1 / 2 / 5 / 10 / 20 / 50 / 100         (Ha)      1 / 2 / 5 / 10 / 20 / 50 / 100

In the post-development scenario, runoff from the 2.40 hectare post-development catchment (excluding a
0.018 hectare drainage corridor connecting to the adjoining property) will be collected at the sag in the
proposed road, from which flows up to Q5 will be diverted eastward by piping along the road, to the
western tributary channel. Flows in excess of Q5 at the sag will discharge overland, through the
abovementioned drainage corridor, to the adjoining property.

The Q5 diversion capacity, as calculated by the Rational Method for a partial area of 2.25 hectares, is
summarised in Table 8, below:

Table 8:        Rational Method Calculation Of Q5 Diversion Capacity
      C10            Tc (min)       I5 (mm/hr)            A (Ha)                        Q5 (m3/s)
      0.78              18              112                2.25         0.00278 x (0.95 x 0.78) x 112 x 2.25 = 0.52

The post-development discharge rates to the adjoining property up to Q5, being just the runoff from the
surface of the connecting drainage corridor, are calculated by the Rational Method as in Table 9 below.
These flow rates are all practically zero.

The post-development discharge rates to the adjoining property from Q10 to Q100, as calculated by the
Rational Method for the partial area of 2.30 hectares shown in Figure 3, are summarised in Table 10
below:

The consequent changes in local discharges from the site, to No2 Pearsons Road, are collated from
Tables 7, 9 and 10 and summarised in Table 11, below. The changes are seen to be non-adverse, from Q1
to Q100.

7.0     RUNOFF RATES TO FLOODWAY MODEL


7.1     Catchment Areas And Subdivision

Flood profiles along floodways such as the subject tributaries are affected by the hydraulic capacity of the
adjoining downstream reaches and by any waterway structures in those downstream reaches.
Accordingly, the Extran model extends some distance downstream of the site to the convergence of the
two tributaries just downstream of Pearsons Road, as shown in Figure 3. The catchment modelling
therefore includes not just the contributing areas alongside and upstream of the site, but also the areas
downstream of the site to that termination point downstream of Pearsons Road. The extent of the 151.7
hectare overall catchment is shown in Figures 4 and 5. The site occupies 8.0 hectare, or about 5 percent,
of the overall catchment area.

The catchment has been subdivided into 23 subareas for modelling of the pre-development scenario (as in
Figure 3), and 41 subareas for the post-development scenario (as in Figure 4). The subdivision of the
areas external to the site is identical between the two scenarios, whereas the subdivision of those areas
which discharge to the floodways within the site are treated differently between the two scenarios, to
allow for accurate modelling of the increased runoff from the proposed urban development of 65 percent
of the site area. The modelling of the post-development scenario also accounts for the Q5 splits of the
inflows to the bio-basins, which necessitates doubling-up of the relevant six subareas, taking the total
sub-area count to 47 as marked on Figure 5. The impervious fractions applied to each of the modelled
subareas are summarised in Table 12, on the following page of this report.


7.2     Design Rainfall Data

The Bureau of Meteorology has recently updated the rainfall intensity-frequency-duration data that was
previously published in Volume 1 of Australian Rainfall and Runoff (1987). The previous data was based
on rainfalls recorded up to 1985, whereas the latest data is based on rainfalls recorded up to 2010 / 2011.
There has also been a change of nomenclature, whereby the previous description of severity in terms of
“average recurrence interval” has been updated to “annual exceedence probability” for storms from 2-
year to 100 year severity. Rainfall intensities for the 1 year severity are still quoted for an average
recurrence interval of once per year. The updating has increased the rainfall intensities at higher ARI’s
(or lesser exceedence probabilities) by about 4 percent, compared to the previous data. The updated
intensity-frequency-duration data for Cooroy is reproduced in Appendix A of this report.

7.3     Model Calibration

The catchment runoff processes have been modelled with the “basic” variant of Version 3.5g of the Urbs
software, with the “Rational Method” procedure invoked so as to improve the routing simulation within
individual subareas, and with rainfalls converted to runoff via the initial/continuing loss procedure. The
operating parameters of the model which affect the outcome of the simulation are the storage lag
parameter (alpha), the non-linearity parameter (m), the initial rainfall loss (IL) and the continuing rainfall
loss (CL).

Ideally, the operating parameters should be calibrated to observed rainfall and runoff data in the subject
catchment, using either data from particular storm events or derived statistical data via a frequency curve
of recorded flows. In this instance, there is a streamgauge further downstream in the broader catchment
(at Cooran, where the contributing catchment area is 180 square kilometres, or about 120 times larger
than the subject catchment). This gauge has been recording flood flows for 60 years, but the accuracy of
its height/flow rating curve has been confirmed by current-metering to only just above the 1-in-2 year
flood height, which means that its usefulness for model calibration to flows of 5 year or greater severity
is very questionable.

The calibration has therefore reverted to an alternative process involving three stages:

- Calibration to Rational Method calculations of the peak flow rates from individual subareas and groups
  of subareas.

- Comparing the calibrated parameters from the first stage to the corresponding parameters from
  previous calibrations to other morphologically similar catchments with more highly rated streamgauge
  data.

- Comparing the predicted peak flow rates at particular locations in the modelled area to the
  corresponding flow rates in the 2002 L&T floodway model.

The Rational Method calibration has been applied to the peak flow rates entering the floodway model
near the upstream boundaries of the site and to the peak inflow rates from each of the subareas which
discharge to the floodway within the subject site. The relevant calculations are summarised in
Appendices B and C of this report, for the pre- and post-development scenarios respectively. An
acceptably close calibration to these calculated peak flow rates was achieved, as in Table 13 below and in
Table 14 on the following pages of this report, using an alpha parameter of 0.85 an m parameter of 0.8,
an initial rainfall loss of 16 mm, and a continuing rainfall loss of 2 mm/hour. The alpha parameter for
individual small subareas which discharge overland flow mostly as shallow sheet flow was increased by
arbitrarily applying reach factors of up to 3.

The calibrated parameters compare favourably with those inferred from other morphologically similar
catchments having more highly rated streamgauge data. In this instance, data have been inferred from
previous model calibrations to streamgauge records in Moggill Creek and Bulimba Creek in the outer
suburbs of Brisbane, with a comparison as in Table 15 below:

The predicted peak inflow rates to the upstream end of the floodway model also compare favourably to
the peak flow rates in L&T’s Mike 11 floodway model, as in Table 16, below:

7.4     Linkage From Catchment Model To Floodway Model

BSM’s in-house ‘UrbsInt’ and “AsciXP” subroutines were used to convert flow outputs from particular
subareas or groups of subareas within the Urbs model to inflow hydrographs at particular nodes within
the floodway model, as in Table 17, hereafter:

8.0     FLOOD PROFILES, PRE-DEVELOPMENT

Version 9.28 of the Extran software, as embedded in the XPStorm modelling suite, has been used to
convert the catchment runoff hydrographs to flood profiles along the floodways. The extent and detail of
the model are shown in Figure 3 of this report. Te model provides approximately three times the detail of
the Mike11 model which L&T used in 2002 to model these floodways. The model network also includes
a number of interconnecting links to provide for simulation of overflows between the two tributaries
where they are aligned in close proximity, downstream of the site.

This version of the Extran software includes a facility to specify different internodal distances for the left
overbank, channel and right overbank segments, which in turn provides for a reasonably accurate
calculation by the software of the internodal flood volumes up to the peak flood level profile. This feature
was vital for checking that the reshaping of the floodway in the post-development scenario achieves the
required stormwater detention volumes, over-and-above the existing floodway volumes. Accordingly,
this facility was invoked for this analysis and separate internodal distances were measured and applied to
each connecting link of the model network.

Field-surveyed spot heights, which can be seen in the background of Figure 6 were used to define the
cross-section shape of each of the links between adjoining nodes of the model. The Manning’s n values
of the channel and overbank sectors of the floodways were perceived by site inspection. The adopted
values ranged from 0.035 for open grassed paddock or park, to 0.150 in densely timbered areas.
Examples of the adopted values are shown in Figures 7 and 8 of this report.

The starting point for the simulations was the tailwater level just downstream of the convergence of the
two tributaries. Initial runs of the model, based on a “normal-depth” criterion at node 39 at the
downstream end of the model, simulated a 100 year tailwater level substantially higher than L&T’s
predicted tailwater level at this location. The slope of the outfall reach, between nodes 38 and 39, was
therefore artificially steepened so as to induce a simulated tailwater level much closer to the L&T level.

Initial runs of the model, for ARI’s of 2 year and 100 year, and for storm durations from 20 minutes to 9
hours, revealed that the critical storm durations varied from 1.5 hours to 3 hours along these floodways.
Accordingly, all subsequent simulations included three storm durations: - namely, 1.5, 2 and 3 hours.

The set-up of the model resulted in simulated flood levels near the upstream and boundaries of the site
that, apart from node 23, were generally at or slightly above the co-located levels from L&T’s Mike 11
model, as indicated in Table 18 below. Overall, the consistency between the two models appears to be
quite good, despite the considerable difference in network density between the two models.

The predicted pre-development peak flood levels at each node of the model, for ARI’s from 1to 100
years, are summarised in Tables 19 to 21 on the following pages of this report, where they are compared
to the corresponding post-development flood levels. The corresponding 100 year pre-development flood
profile is shown on Figure 10, and the pre-development 100 year boundary is mapped on Figures 9 and
13.

9.0     FLOOD PROFILES, POST-DEVELOPMENT

9.1     Mitigation Concept For Increased Stormwater Runoff

The impact of the increased site runoff on flood profiles along the floodways is proposed to be mitigated
mostly by increasing the floodway storage on the site, and partly by conventional detention storage in
two of the proposed bio-basins. The increase in the floodway storage will be achieved by deliberately
roughening the floodways (by revegetating the riparian zones, as required by Council), by excavating a
side-storage alongside the western tributary, and by constructing a restrictive footbridge across the
eastern tributary to back-up the flood profiles in that tributary floodway.

A small additional amount of storage is also required to offset the minor intrusions of the development
platform into the pre-development 100 year flood boundary, and for some minor regrading of an artificial
hump in the existing low-flow channel around node 5 of the Extran model (as seen on Figure 10).

The full suite of the proposed modifications to the flood storage system is shown on Figure 9, with
additional detail on Figures 10 to 12.

The revegetation of the riparian zones, by planting of shrubs (typically, Lomandra sp) and trees at
densities of one item per 1.5 to 2 square metres, is presumed to increase the Manning’s n of the presently
grassed areas from 0.03/0.05 to 0.07.

The detention storages in the bio-basins are accounted as only the “live” storages, in the narrow range of
elevation between the riser overflow level and the weir level. The overflow level in the riser will be
controlled by an overflow slot in one side of the riser, with details as in Figure 12.

9.2     Model Simulation

An Extran model of the post-development scenario was compiled by adjusting a copy of the pre-
development model so as to include the reshaped and revegetated floodways and associated increases in
Manning’s n values, together with the inclusion of the proposed footbridge (with zero blockage), the
minor regrading of the invert around Node 5, and hypothetical vertical walls at the boundaries of the
proposed allotments.

The achievement of the required increase in floodplain volume, to offset the development’s stormwater
detention requirement, is summarised in Table 22, below:

The impact of the proposed development on peak flow rates downstream of the site is summarised in
Table 23, below. Flow rates leaving the site via the eastern tributary (nodes 15 – 16) will be slightly
reduced. Flow rates leaving the site via the western tributary (nodes 29.5 - 30) will increase, and this is a
result of the diversion of local stormwater runoff away from No 2 Pearsons Road and directly to the
western floodway. Further downstream along the western floodway, past the junction with the remaining
local runoff from that adjoining property (nodes 31-32), the post-development flow rates will be close to
the pre-development flow rates. Further downstream, at the downstream end of the model (nodes 38-39),
where the two tributaries have converged, the flow-rates will be unchanged or slightly reduced.

The flood levels predicted by the post-development model have been compared to those for the pre-
development scenario in Table 19 to 21 on preceding pages of this report, for ARI’s from 1 to 100 years.
Yellow highlighting is used in those tables to identify nodes that are within the site boundaries. The flood
level affluxes on all external properties as a result of the proposed development are seen to be practically
zero (maximum 0.01 metre) or negative (beneficial), when quoted to the nearest centimetre.

The corresponding 100 year post-development flood profiles are shown on Figure 10, and the post-
development 100 year boundary is mapped on Figure 13.

9.3     Sensitivity Tests

The sensitivity of the development to uncontrolled regrowth along the floodways was examined by
applying a Manning’s n of value of 0.15 to the overbank riparian zones of all the cross-sections of the
model. The additional impact of the footbridge being blocked by debris was simulated by assuming that
the handrails could be completely blocked by debris and the under-bridge aperture could be 50 percent
blocked. The 100 year flood levels predicted by these tests are summarised in Table 24, on the following
page of this report, and in Figures 10 and 13. The design levels for the development platform should take
due account of these flood levels.
