Subject: Receiving Waterbody Definition

Hi Andrew,

Thank you for the discussion earlier today.
Further to our conversation, could you please confirm this general summary of our discussions?

     -     A receiving waterbody is a lake, river or bay that accepts stormwater discharge and is the environment that
           we are seeking to protect. A small constructed isolated pond on an individual site would not necessarily
           satisfy the definition of an receiving environment.
     -     A pond could be part of the treatment train however it would be recommended to have pre-treatment to
           reduce maintenance and minimise the potential of risks such as algal blooms.

Thanks for your assistance on this matter.

Glenn
