          83.5     The Noise Management Plan shall include a process for dealing with complaints and
                   specify that the Restaurant Management and Body Corp Manager be responsible for
                   dealing with any noise complaints.

With respect to the above the following noise control measures are incorporated into the Facilities
Building and all of the closest residential apartments, as applicable. With respect to the calculation of
noise impact detailed in this report, the following noise control measures, as applicable, have been
taken into account:

    1. roof over the outdoor dining area, accounting for approximately 75% of the total outdoor dining
       area;
    2. solid balustrades to residential balconies at least 1000 mm high;
    3. solid full height (and full depth of balcony) masonry walls separating residential balconies and
       acting as wing walls.

Specific to the above Conditions, the following comments should also be noted:

83.1.1:            ALL residential apartments are fully air-conditioned (all habitable rooms) and glazing
                   facing the Facilities Building (for the closest Blocks, namely 2, 3 and 4, as well as 18 to
                   21) is 6 mm thick toughened glass for sliding glass doors and, for any windows above
                   the sliding glass doors, 6 mm float glass, both of which are thicker than what would
                   normally be installed when the original 2006 noise report was prepared.

83.1.2:            Every residential apartment balcony has full height (and full depth of the balcony) end
                   walls (masonry construction) which are, effectively, wing walls for those apartments not
                   directly in line with the Facilities Building and in particular the outdoor dining area.

83.1.3:            Approximately 75% of the outdoor dining area is roofed over, and for that part of the
                   roof closest to the café, approximately 75 m2 has acoustic absorbent panelling
                   incorporated into the ceiling lining. This represents approximately 50% of the primary
                   roofed area out from the café (but not including the additional awning which is roof only
                   – no ceiling lining).

83.1.4:            The proposed trading hours are from 0600 to 2400 hours (6:00am to midnight).

83.2:              A Noise Management Plan has been prepared.

83.5:              The Noise Management Plan includes a process for dealing with any noise complaints.

Further to the above the following additional noise control measures are required:

    1. Waste collection to only occur between 0700 and 1800 hours daily;

    2. Delivery vehicles to only access the Facilities Building between 0700 and 1800 hours daily;

    3. Gymnasium to only operate with all external openings (doors and windows) closed. The only
       possible variation to this requirement would be for quiet activities within the gymnasium during
       the daytime;

    4. Preliminary amplified music noise limits are:

                  day and evening (0700 to 2200 hours): 80 dB(A) LAeq,adj,T at 3 m from the speakers;
                  night (up to midnight):               76 dB(A) LAeq,adj,T at 3 m from the speakers;

    5. All speakers for amplified music must be located immediately under the solid roof of the outdoor
       dining area, and angled down as much as possible.
