OPW20-0092 - Applicant's Response to Council's IR · OPW20/0092

Council’s Issue

There are concerns regarding potential of conflict between the proposed stormwater connection pipeline
(225mm , FI5/5-G6/5), from the development into proposed stormwater Pit G6/5, with the existing
intersecting services (sewer main, water main, telecommunication cables) within the road reserve verge.


Information Required by Council

1.       Carry out a field investigation to ascertain the locations and depths of the existing intersecting
         services and provide a cross section to demonstrate no potential of conflict in this regard. Also,
         carrying out a field investigation of the location and depth of the receiving stormwater
         structure/pipeline will be an advantage.

         Also, it is to be noted that the proposed stormwater line F3/3-FI5/5 intersects the existing sewer
         connection from the subject site.


Applicant’s Response

1.   The applicant has undertaken investigations to determine the location and depth of the existing services.
     As shown on Drawing Number 20538-C12 prepared by TOD Engineers (refer Attachment 1), the existing
     watermain will cross under the proposed 225 diameter stormwater pipe from FI5/5 -G6/5. An extract
     from the engineering drawing illustrates the location of the proposed pipe in Figure 1.
