            Attention: Jack Lewis                                Development Counter
            Dear Sir,




            I refer to the above-mentioned matter and your email containing an Outstanding Issues
            Request dated 28th June, 2013; and I respectfully supply the following documents:

            1)      A     Preliminary Operational Management Plan                   has been    prepared by MWA
                                                            th
                    Environmental, (Job No. 12-002 dated 11    September, 2013).                          The Plan
                    addresses the integration of the poultry farm operation with the avocado orchard
                    operation. The Plan also includes correspondence prepared by Alwyn Peffer &
                    Company Pty Ltd regarding an audit of the tree count and nutrient calculations
                    prepared by Myriad International pty Ltd which concludes that the com posted
                    material produced will not meet the demands of the orchard.


            2)      An additional response prepared Hayes Traffic Engineering (dated 5th August,
                    2013) and an updated Traffic Engineering Report (Project 11347 Version DA        -




                    RFI02 dated     August 2013) incorporating the additional response required by
                    Council.


            3)      An additional response prepared by MWA Environmental regarding Odour Issues
                    (dated 11th September, 2013) addressing the issue of odour generated by the
                    composting operation.

            4)      An  amended Stormwater Treatment and Water Quality Management Plan
                    prepared by Callaghan & Toth Civil, Hydraulic & Environmental Engineers (Ref:
                                                           -




                    No. 1209 SWQMP Report_Version_2 2013 dated August 2013). The amended
                    Management Plan includes additional bunded areas set aside for the compost
                    operation.


            I also refer to additional issues raised by late submission lodged at Council; in particular
            the multiple submissions by Mr Rod Ritchie and the submission by Cr Tony Wellington
            ("More Chooky Business" dated 16th July, 2013).

            Fruit Tree Audit
            As stated above an audit of the tree count is included in the Preliminary Operational
            Management Plan with a tree count of 6,651 avocado trees in the orchard engaged in
            the current production of fruit.
