Dear Sir/Madam,


Response to Information Request – SDA-1116-034770 – Material Change of Use for a
Telecommunications Facility, and Operational Works for Waterway Barrier Works, located at 23
Jirrima Crescent, Cooroibah (Lot 47 on RP136461)


We refer to your request for further information on 21 November 2016, in accordance with section 276 of
the Sustainable Planning Act 2009 at 23 Jirrima Crescent, Cooroibah (Lot 47 on RP136461).

Prior to addressing the Department’s requested information, we inform the Department that the proposed
compound area for the Telecommunications Facility has been relocated approximately 40 m south-east of
the original proposed location. This is in direct response to Noosa Council’s Information Request, which
requested the following:

       “Riparian Buffer Area
       The infrastructure use is proposed within a riparian buffer area. The proposed location of the
       infrastructure use is contrary to Specific Outcome O5 of the Biodiversity Overlay Code and is not
       supported.

       Information Required
       1. Please provide amended plans siting the proposed infrastructure use and associated lease area
       wholly outside the riparian buffer area.”

Please find attached as Appendix A the Amended Proposal Plans which illustrate the revised compound
location. If the Department could please utilise the new plans throughout the remainder of the referral
assessment, it would be greatly appreciated. We note that no changes to the access track or associated
Waterway Barrier Works are proposed.

Thus, in accordance with section 278(1) (a) of the Sustainable Planning Act 2009, please find below our
formal response to the Department’s requested information:
