     Thank you for your email dated 13 September 2013 requesting an amendment to our

     original concurrence response about your proposal to construct a pontoon at the location
     mentioned above.


     As a concurrence agency, Maritime Safety Queensland has no objection to the proposal

     provided the following navigation and marine safety conditions are complied with.

     1.   The contractor must buiid the pontoon according to The Jetty Specialist, drawing no:

          JSP-SJ-25770, Issue 8, attached to your email dated 13 September 2013.


     2.   No part of the structure or any ship berthed at this structure is to come closer than 1.5
          metres from the side boundaries of the allocated water space as shown on the
          submitted water allocation plan.


     3.   The pontoon and all freestanding piles must be lit and clearly visible to approaching
          vessels. The contractor must position all lighting so it does not cause a risk to the safe

          navigation of other vessels.

     4. The applicant or his agent is responsible for the removal of any existing structure above

          or below the      waterline, and must contain and remove any debris. Any pile that needs to
          be removed must be totally extracted.


     5.   The ship moored at this pontoon must follow the most direct course from this structure
          to open waters and a similar direct course when returning to this pontoon.


     6.   The owner is to ensure that the ship berthed at this structure must maintain sufficient
          under keel clearance at all stages of tide. The ship must comply with any local
          restrictions placed on channel depths and draft restrictions.

              Safety) Act 1994 and the Transport Operations (Marine Safety) Regulation 2004.

         9.   Any ship moored at this pontoon must not impede the safe navigation of other ships or
              restrict safe access to or from neighbouring structures.


         10. Any ship berthed, moored or attached to the pontoon must not exceed the following
              sizes:



                  Wet Berth                                          Dry Berth

         11. The contractor must construct the pontoon within two years from the date of approval. If
              construction is not completed, you will need additional or amended comments from the

              Regional Harbour Master.

         Maritime Safety Queensland does not need to be further consulted if all of the above
         conditions are met.


         The above conditions must be included in your application to the assessment manager.


         This agency will also forward a copy of this letter to the Assessment Manager.
