                                                                                                        SDA-0914-014464




                      8.      The existing Waste Water Treatment and Disposal System for the site is as
                              mentioned in the report from Barlow Shelley, Consulting Engineers, Section 8 ,
                              Reference number 1014 Dated 3rd September 2013, is capable of accommodating
                              the proposed changes to the development.
                      9.      If design requirements for the site change, whereby the development exceeds the
                              accommodation or use of 21 or more equivalent persons, or generates a
                              requirement for an ERA63, then an Operator’s Licence from The Department of
                              Environment and Heritage Protection (DEHP) will also be required.
                      Health
                      10.     Due regard should be given to the design and location of noise emitting fixed plant
                              and equipment and any acoustic treatment that may be required. It is advised that
                              an appropriately qualified acoustic consultant be involved with the selection and
                              installation of such equipment. A qualified acoustic consultant can give advice on
                              how to best locate and design the equipment such that it can meet statutory noise
                              or planning requirements.
                      11.     The Environmental Protection Act 1994 states that a person must not carry out any
                              activity that causes, or is likely to cause, environmental harm unless the person
                              takes all reasonable and practicable measures to prevent or minimise the harm.
                              Environmental harm includes environmental nuisance. In this regard persons and
                              entities, involved in the civil, earthworks and construction phases of development,
                              are to adhere to their ‘general environmental duty’ to minimise the risk of causing
                              environmental harm. Environmental harm is defined by the Act as any adverse
                              effect, or potential adverse effect whether temporary or permanent and of whatever
                              magnitude, duration or frequency on an environmental value and includes
                              environmental nuisance. Therefore, no person should cause any interference with
                              the environment or amenity of the area by reason of the emission of noise,
                              vibration, smell, fumes, smoke, vapour, steam, soot, ash, dust, waste water, waste
                              products, grit, sediment, oil or otherwise, or cause hazards likely in the opinion of
                              the administering authority to cause undue disturbance or annoyance to persons or
                              affect property not connected with the use.
                      12.     In accordance with the Public Health Act 2005, rainwater tanks must be
                              constructed with mosquito proof screens (made from either brass, copper,
                              aluminium or stainless steel), and constructed with a mesh size of no more than
                              1mm, and must be installed in a way that does not accelerate corrosion. Tanks that
                              contain flap valves must be installed so that when closed, mosquitoes cannot pass
                              through the valve. It is unlawful under the Public Health Act 2005 to construct,
                              install or be in possession of a tank that does not comply with these requirements.
