7       RECOMMENDATIONS – NOISE EMISSIONS

7.1      MECHANICAL PLANT

Mechanical plant associated with the development has not been selected and therefore, detailed assessment
is required prior to BA phase of the project. The selection of plant and acoustic treatment added to the plant
must ensure that noise emission limits at sensitive sites achieve compliance with the noise emission limits.

                                       Table 14 – Plant Noise Emission Limits

 Noise emission limits were based on ambient noise levels in Table 2 of the unattended noise monitoring
conducted closest to the site and noise sensitive receivers.

7.2      OTHER NOISE SOURCES

Other noise sources with any significance are anticipated to include site generated traffic and waste
collection. Waste collection is not anticipated to generate adverse impact onto surrounding developments,
given that collection times would align with the collection times at the adjacent existing residential sites.

Traffic generation from the proposed development is not anticipated to generate adverse impact onto the
adjacent existing residential receivers given that Hofmann Drive will be extended, thus generating higher
traffic noise compared to the proposed development.
