2. SITE DESCRIPTION
The subject land is located on the north end of Kennedys Road at Pomona
approximately 4.29km from the Elm Street, Cooroy intersection.
The land has a frontage of 507.55 metres to an un-formed road along the eastern
boundary, and contains an area of 70.9ha.
The land is generally undulating with several watercourses traversing the property
from south to north. A large dam is located within the eastern portion of the site.
Upon the land stands a house and outbuildings.
Power and telephone services are connected to the site and Kennedys Road is a
good quality gravel rural road.
The eastern half of the property has been cleared and used for sugar cane
production previously and now used for grazing and cultivation. The western half of
the property is heavily vegetated.
A Locality Plan is attached as Appendix A.
3. PROPOSAL
The applicants seek to use the eastern cleared part of the property for aquaculture
production.

Page 6
The production includes the breeding of native fish species for re-stocking purposes;
particularly Mary River Cod. The production will also include the breeding species
such as Silver Perch for human consumption.
The use includes the construction of dams as shown on the attached Plan of the
Development are attached as Appendix B.
A description of the proposed use is detailed in the Aquaculture Operations
Management Plan attached as Appendix C.
4. ADJOINING DEVELOPMENT -
The adjoining land the north is used for rural
purposes and the remaining adjoining lands are used as a Forest Reserve.
5. PLANNING SCHEME CONSIDERATIONS-
Animal Husbandry Type 2 Intensive is defined in the Noosa Plan Scheme as:
Use of premises for the keeping of animals at a density which ordinarily
require supplementary feeding or containment in feed lots, sheds, pens or the like.
The use includes the use of premises for aquaculture where the combined surface
area of all ponds or tanks exceeds 200m2; pigs (exceeding 20 at a density of more
than 2per hectare); poultry, emu, or ostrich farming (exceeding 20 birds), boarding
kennels, cattery, dog pound.
The proposed use is aquaculture and therefore complies with the above definition.
The proposed use of Animal Husbandry Type 2 is a consistent use in the Rural Zone
of the Mary River Catchment locality.
The proposed use of Animal Husbandry Type 2 is impact assessable.

The slope of the site towards the north boundary, the relatively minimal earthworks
and the absence of adjacent significant waterways provide for no unexpected issues
with respect to erosion and sediment.
The implementation of the normal Conditions of approval will alleviate any possible
impacts of the site works.
6.6 Specific Outcomes and Probable Solutions for the Biodiversity Overlay
Code
The overall outcomes sought from the Biodiversity Overlay Code include:
a) The natural resources are conserved.
b) The diversity of native flora and fauna and their habitats are maintained.
c) Wildlife corridors, vegetation links and riparian vegetation are conserved
and habilitated.
d) Management of any impacts upon vegetation.
Comment: The site is partially subject to "Environmental Protection" on the
Biodiversity Overlay map.
The development can be undertaken without impact upon the vegetation within this
area.
It is considered that the Reconfiguration of a Lot achieves compliance with the
Biodiversity Overlay Code.
6.7 Specific Outcomes and Probable Solutions for the Natural Hazard
Overlay Code
All agricultural uses are exempt.

SUMMARY
An Application for a Development Permit for the material change ofuse
to conduct Aquaculture is being sort for an Aquaculture Operation
specialising in the Hatchery Production ofMary River Cod for the
purpose of stocking. A non-standard condition allowing production for
stocking purposes is being sort. The approval for production ofthe
species included in Fl,F2, F4,F5 and F6 licences is also being sort.
Further scope for the Aquaculture proposal will also incorporate the
"Growing Out" of species such as Silver Perch for human consumption.
The site that has been selected for this pursuit is situated within the
Sunshine Coast Regional Council and is designated as "Rural"in the
Mary River Catchment. The parcel of land is Lot 7 on MCH793, County
of March, Parish ofTewantin and has a total area of70.9ha.(See Fig 1).
Extensive soil testing has been carried out on the designated production
areas, with the results showing that there are no soil contaminants and
suitable clay levels for pond excavations. The parcel of land is
surrounded by Yurol State Forest, therefore presenting no possibility of
adjacent land being affected by production.

Aquaculture proposal consists of:-
Nine, outdoor, purpose built production ponds measuring 90m x 45m
for an area of3.645ha
Eleven, outdoor, purpose built production ponds measuring 65m x
32.5m for an area of 2.324ha
Three, outdoor, purpose built plankton ponds measuring 50m x 33m
for an area of 0.495ha
Twenty Four, internally housed Broodstock Holding tanks measuring
2.12m x 2.13m for an area of 108.89m2
Sixteen, internally housed Fingerling rearing troughs measuring 4.0m
x O.5m for an area of 32m2, and
One 40m x 165m settlement pond for an area ofO.66ha
Water for the proposal would be drawn from the existing 5.67ha
watercourse as well as bore water.
Hatchery Operations and Broodstock Holding facilities would be housed
in the existing 1052m shed space (See Fig 3). The shed has a sealed
concrete floor and is serviced by "Three Phase" power and water.

2. BROODSTOCK MANAGEMENT
2.1. Collection Methods
Broodstock would be collected fi..om a number of different
waterways throughout the Mary River Catchment, thus ensuring genetic
diversity. These would include, but not be limited to tributaries, such as
Obi Obi, Six Mile, Coondoo and Tinana. Brood stock sourced from the
Coomera and Pine River systems would be utilised for non
environmental stockings outside the Mary River Catchment. Collection
methods such as Electro fishing, Lure and Line fishing, and gill netting
would be utilised. Best fish handling practises would be as rigorously
adhered to once captured, with the use of non abrasive nets and slings.
2.2. Handling Treatments
Once captured the fish will be transported back to the hatchery in
suitably sized tanks with ample clean, fresh water and oxygen. Once back
at the hatchery the fish would be anesthetised with Clove Oil, sexed and
a "PIT"tag placed in the right shoulder. This information would then be
collated in the form of a "Brood stock register"(See Fig 4).
The brood stock would then be placed through a rigorous, veterinary
prescribed, prophylactic treatment regime. The treatment regime would
be carried out in specifically isolated and covered 2000 litre tanks, away
from the main production area.
2.3. Holding Tanks in Hatchery
During the hot summer months the Brood stock would be removed
from the ponds and individually housed in 3300 litre tanks inside the
Hatchery Building. These tanks will be linked to a Re-circulated water
treatment system, maintaining optimal water quality parameters. Each
tank will have its own hide/pipe for cover. A detailed "Indoor Brood
stock Placement" register (SeeFig 5)would be established, documenting
tank number, fish PIT tag number, sex and size.
2.4. Pond Placement
Brood stock will be placed into ponds when water temperatures
allow, generally around MarchiApril. The ponds will be prepared with
four breeding pipes, of at least two metres in length per pond. These
pipes will be lined with a hard plastic liner and fly screen for the capture
of eggs. Two pairs of similarly sized Brood stock, from varying capture
locations, will be placed into the ponds on the same day to try to alleviate
territorial fighting. A detailed "Pond Placement" register (See Fig 6)will
be established.

2.5. Brood stock Feeding
Brood stock will be fed a varying diet consisting of cow’s liver,
trawler trash and live crustaceans on a regular basis. This diet will ensure
the fish have access to the calcium required for strong egg development.
3. EGG AND FINGERLING MANAGEMENT
3.1. Egg Collection
Inspection diving for eggs will commence when pond water temperatures
reach 160C. This will be carried out at four day intervals to prevent the
missing of a spawning. Regular afternoon pond inspections will also be
carried out to monitor fish activity around breeding time.
When eggs are detected the liner is removed from the pipe and another
fresh liner placed in the pipe for the likelihood of another spawning. Due
to the short distance of travel to the hatchery building the liner/eggs will
be submersed in a trough of pond water and transported back to the
hatchery.
3.2. Handling Treatments
The eggs will be bathed in a solution of 1ppt formalin for 30 minutes to
reduce fungal infestations. This fonnalin bath is carried out daily until all
eggs are hatched. After the initial bath the flyscreen is removed from the
liner and cut into more manageable sized sheets. These sheets allow the
fly screen to hang off the bottom of the rearing trough, thus preventing
the fingerlings from burying into the dead and fungus covered eggs for
protection.
3.3. Trough Placement
Each individual spawning will be placed in its own trough and recorded
in a "Trough Placement" register. As the requirement for space is needed
as the fingerlings grow they will be moved to other individual troughs or
placed in prepared production ponds.
3.4. Fingerling Feeding
Fry will be initially fed artemia for the first few feeds along with live
plankton produced from the plankton ponds. Excess plankton will also be
frozen in zip lock bags and fed at a later date. Frozen blood worms will
also be sourced as a food item.

4. STOCKING PROTOCOLS
4.1 Stocking Protocols
Once fingerlings have reach the predetermined size for stocking and are
ready for stocking out, fingerlings would be collected from different
spawning troughs, for example, 500 from 5 different spawnings to make
up 2500 stocking at a particular site, therefore ensuring genetic diversity.
5. FISH ESCAPE PREVENTION MEASURES
5.1 Prevention Measures
A number of measures would be used to prevent fish escape from
production areas ofthe aquaculture enterprise. These would include:
The use of screened stand pipes in the production ponds and tanks
All ponds to be equipped with concrete drain sumps
Further concrete drain sumps located prior to water reaching
settlement ponds (diagram 1)allowing a fabricated net to be placed
over outlet to ensure no fish escape.
6. WATER MANAGEMENT AND REUSE
6.1 Water Management
Water for the proposal would be sourced from the existing 5.67ha storage
dam. The supply for the storage dam originates in the adjacent state
forest and has passed tests for chemical contaminants. Bore water would
also be sourced for the proposal. The selected property has extensive
underground irrigation infrastructure and is capable of moving large
volumes of water throughout the property.
6.2 Water Reuse
Water that has passed through production ponds etc would be collected in
specific settlement ponds. This water would then be reused for irrigation
of pasture land and fodder crops. The water would also have the potential
to be used back in the plankton ponds to stimulate blooms for larval
feeding.
