       5.   The design of a suitable bushfire sprinkler protection system designed to extend into
            surrounding fuel loads to drop the intensity of any incident wildfire and to adequately
            cover the roof, walls and areas of the building to extinguish burning embers and
            eliminate the development of secondary fires separate from the main fire front;

       6.   Provision of landscape design plans which includes appropriate landscaping to not
            exacerbate the development of secondary fires from ember and radiant heat attack
            against the building. Landscaping Design is to adopt the principals espoused in
            Ramsay and Rudolph (2003) Landscape and Building Design for Bushfire Prone
            Areas, CSIRO Publishing.

    Subject to further detailed design at Building Approval Stage it is our professional opinion
    that adequate bushfire protection measures can be adopted on the site to safe guard the
    property and residence from bushfire attack in a credible worst case bushfire scenario as
    outlined in AS3959: 2009.

    Should the reader have any questions regarding the above please do not hesitate to contact
    the undersigned.
