                                                                                          2205-28613 SRA




Attachment 3—Reasons for referral agency response
(Given under section 56(7) of the Planning Act 2016)

The reasons for SARAs decision are:
 The application is for a development permit for operational work to allow for removal of an existing
   pontoon system and the installation of a new pontoon system adjacent to 21 Witta Circle, Noosa
   Heads.
 The site is mapped as being in the coastal management district and within an erosion prone area.
 The prescribed tidal works will occur in a developed waterway that includes a navigation corridor.
 The proposed structure, including any vessel berthed, moored or attach to the structure:
       o will not encroach into, pass over or under a navigation corridor
       o is not located in a high risk maritime development zone.
 SARA finds the proposed structure meets the FastTrack5 qualifying criteria checklist 4.
 The development has been assessed against State code 7: Maritime safety (State code 7) and State
   code 8: Coastal development and tidal works (State code 8) of the State development Assessment
   Provisions (SDAP), version 3.0.
 SARA finds the development complies with State code 7 and State code 8, subject to conditions to
   ensure:
       o The development is carried out generally in accordance with the plans of development
           submitted with the application
       o that the coastal resource (State land) is appropriately administered under the Coastal
           Protection and Management Act 1995 and the Land Act 1994.
       o impacts on coastal values (water quality) are avoided or minimised.
       o the importation of materials does not result in adverse impacts on coastal values. Chemical
           and other contaminants have the potential to have an unacceptable impact on coastal
           values.
       o that if the development gets damaged, the applicant will be required to remove remaining
           debris at their own expense.
       o that at all times, all lights on the site do not interfere with safe navigation in surrounding
           waterways
       o the development does not encroach on the navigation corridor or high-risk maritime zone to
           ensure the safe passage of vessels
       o that debris from the development does not create a hazard to navigation
       o that there is no residual material that could create a hazard to navigation.

      Planning Act 2016
      Planning Regulation 2017
