Dear Mr Johnston

Application for a Relevant Purpose determination under section 22A of the Vegetation
Management Act 1999 for the clearing of native vegetation on lot 77 SP298776 - Noosa
Shire Council.

I refer to your application submitted to the Department of Resources (the department) on 16
September 2022.

As delegate for the Chief Executive, I have considered your request and am satisfied that the
proposed development to clear vegetation for the purpose of Relevant Infrastructure Activities
meets the relevant requirements of section 22A of the Vegetation Management Act 1999. The
areas determined to be for a relevant purpose are shown as Area A on the attached Relevant
Purpose Determination Plan (RPDP).

This decision is based on:

       the development proposal and information you submitted to the department on 16
        September 2022, 16 November 2022 and 28 November 2022.

       circumstances at the time of this determination; and

       the attached RPDP.

Should your proposal change (eg. development footprint) or circumstances associated with your
proposal change (eg. legislation changes, regional ecosystem mapping changes), you will need
to request another section 22A relevant purpose determination.

This relevant purpose determination is valid for 2 years and will expire on 13 December 2024.

Please note that this letter is not a development approval to carry out vegetation
clearing. You will need to apply for a development approval from your local Council, or the
Department of State Development, Infrastructure, Local Government and Planning (DSDILGP)
under the Planning Act 2016.
