5.0 SLOPE STABILITY ASSESSMENT
5.1 Existing Conditions
The Noosa Planning Scheme 2020 includes a landslide hazard overlay map (Ref. extract in Text Figure 10
below) which indicates that the eastern part of the site is within a Moderate Hazard Area. Beyond the
eastern boundary the high dune face is mapped as having a Moderate to High hazard.
Subject Site
Text Figure 10: Extract from Noosa Council landslide hazard overlay mapping
It should be noted that the Noosa Council landslide hazard map is a broad-scale indication of the potential
landslide susceptibility and is superseded by this site-specific assessment. The allotment did not exhibit
any visible surface features which would indicate large scale global slope instability during our walkover:
no landslide back scarps, noteworthy groundwater seepage or areas of naturally ‘hummocky’ ground were
observed. Medium dense sands were inferred at relatively shallow depths below surface, with the high
dune standing at between 28° to 35°; and with a slightly steepened section at the toe having a gradient in
the order of 40°.
