c)   stormwater conveyance channels use natural channel design principles to convey external
     catchment stormwater through development and support landscape, passive recreation and
     ecological values;
d)   urban development captures and utilises run-off from appropriate areas for use on site; and
e)   water reuse facilities have no adverse impact on the quality of the town mains water.

Specific outcomes and probable solutions would state—
