2.       Proposal
The proposal involves constructed a dam at the premises. The dam is to be positioned in the rear (northern)
portion of the property where the ground surface levels range from approximately RL111m to 112m and it is
anticipated that the cut and fill earthworks will be in the order of 1-2m deep/high. The dam will occupy an
area of approximately 390m2 (measured along the centre line of the dam wall) and will have depth of 2.5m
relative to the surface water level. The downslope embankment batter will extend for a distance of
approximately 5m at a gradient no steeper than of 1V:3H. The upstream face will have a slope of 1V:2.5H. A
3.5m wide crest will also be adopted.
