O3 Clearing vegetation only occurs where—                    S3.1 No solution provided
a)  no other suitable cleared or partially
    cleared area is available on the
    premises;
b)  the development minimises the total
    footprint within which all activities,
    buildings, structures, driveways and
    other works are contained; and
c)  the development is located in areas of
    low ecological value over other areas,
    to the greatest extent practicable.
