Stormwater Drainage
48.   Stormwater drainage shall be constructed generally in accordance with the report entitled
      “Stormwater Quality Management and Assessment Report” June 2007 by Callaghan and Toth.
49.   Final plans of the drainage design shall be prepared by a Registered Professional Civil
      Engineer and submitted to Council prior to obtaining a Development Permit for Operational
      Works.
50.   All stormwater drainage shall be collected on site and discharged so there is no net increase
      in stormwater runoff from the site.
51.   Roof runoff from any new dwelling shall be directed to a rainwater storage system or tank
      (minimum storage 3000 litres per dwelling/unit ) that is installed to ensure water from the tank
      can be used for external uses (such as watering gardens, irrigation, ornamental ponds, water
      features, topping-up swimming pools, outdoor cleaning, etc) and for use in flushing of toilets
      internal to the dwelling/building.  All rainwater tanks are to be designed and installed in
      accordance with the Queensland Development Code (QDC), Part 25 – Rainwater Tanks, and
      shall be part of the plumbing application in conjunction with the building approval. The
      location and capacity of the tanks shall be clearly shown on the plans submitted for Building
      Works approval.
52.   To ensure that polluted run-off does not enter Council’s stormwater drainage system,
      stormwater run-off from the carparking areas and the driveways shall have the first flush (the
      first 12 mm of rainfall or hose-down) collected in a grease/oil arrestor provided on site prior to
      being permitted to discharge into Council’s drainage system.
      All other clean stormwater, such as roof water, can be collected on site and discharged
      through a single underground drain line directly into the existing drainage system, bypassing
      the grease/oil arrestor.
      To this end, a detailed maintenance plan shall be prepared for the proposed grease/oil
      arrestors, which shall be submitted to the Council for approval prior to obtaining a
      Development Permit for Operational Works.
      The approved maintenance plan shall be incorporated in the Community Management
      Scheme for the development and a copy of this shall be provided for Council’s records prior to
      commencement of the approved Use.
      A Development Permit for Building Works shall not be granted until a Development Permit for
      Operational Works has been issued in regard to the drainage scheme.
53.   All site stormwater drainage shall be by means of a gravity system.
Sewer Mains
54.   The site shall be connected to the Noosa Sanctuary Development sewer reticulation system
      and be constructed in accordance with Council’s standards and requirements at no cost to
      Council.
55.   All sewage shall drainage by means of gravity to the sewage pump station located on lot 2
      SP110327 as per the Deed made on 22 December 1999 between Noosa Council, Aqua Blue
      (Noosa) Pty Ltd and the applicant, Johanna Jacoba Thannhauser.
56.   Should the drainage via gravity not be possible a new arrangement will need to be negotiated
      with Noosa Council
57.   The sewer system is to be kept and maintained in a condition suitable for use and shall not
      cause adverse impacts on the environment.

72.   A Waste Management Plan (construction and demolition) shall be submitted prior to
      demolition, removal or relocation of any building other than a shed.
      A Waste Management Plan (construction and demolition) is also required for construction of
      15 or more dwelling units or for any business use of greater than 500m².
      Waste Management Plans (construction and demolition) are required to be submitted in
      accordance with Planning Scheme Policy 11, Waste Management Plans see table below.
      Waste storage areas are to provide for adequate separation of all reusable, recyclable and
      waste materials. These shall be located so that they are convenient and safe to use. (Refer to
      Noosa Council Waste Management Code).
      The Plan shall contain the following information:

      Note * If a demolition contractor is undertaking works, then the Waste Management table is to
      be completed by the demolition contractor.


      The purpose of the Waste Management Plan is to facilitate the segregation of waste for the
      effective reuse and recycling of such materials. Additionally Council rewards those who
      segregate waste by significantly reducing disposal fees at the landfill some items are free.
      Higher gate fees are charged for loads of mixed waste.


                                                                                                  11 of 19

73.   Noise emission from mechanical equipment (air conditioners, refrigeration equipment or pool
      pumps etc) shall comply with the following requirements:
      The equipment shall be installed and located in a manner that prevents excessive noise in
      accordance with Council’s Local Law No. 12 - Control of Nuisances. Infringement Notices (on-
      the-spot fines) may apply for offences.
      A person must not use equipment on any day if it makes or causes noise to be made –
      From 10pm to 7am: More than the lower of either –
            40 dB(A)
            3 dB(A) above the background noise level
            No audible noise for pool pumps apply during these hours.
      From 7am to 7pm: More than the lower of either –
            50 dB(A)
            5 dB(A) above the background noise level
              From 7pm to 10pm: More than 3 dB(A) above the background noise level.
74.   Submission of written certification from a suitably qualified person confirming that the noise
      levels from all mechanical equipment comply with the cause above when measured at either
      the residential boundary or outside the most exposed part of an affected building, whichever is
      the closest to the equipment.
      The assessment and certification is required immediately after installation of the equipment
      and prior to any occupation of the building, and in a format approved by Council. This
      assessment must take into account noise from any other fixed equipment on the property e.g.
      swimming pool pump, heating/cooling equipment, etc that may increase the overall noise level
      emitted.
      Advice: It is highly recommended that the person you engage to certify the installation is
      involved at the plan development stage so they can recommend where this equipment is best
      located. They can also advise about noise enclosures and can make other suggestions to
      avoid noise problems. It is a lot more costly to try and deal with noise problems after
      everything is built.
75.   Noise from building works associated with residential development shall comply with the
      following –
      75.1. Limited to between 7:00am to 6:30pm Monday to Saturday.
      75.2. All reasonable measures are taken to minimise noise emissions.
      75.3. Not permitted on Sunday or public holidays.
