Works within Road Reserve/Reinstatement
16. Safe pedestrian and vehicle access on all streets in the vicinity of the development must be
maintained at all times. Should footpath/road closures be necessary to carry out construction
works, Council’s Engineering Officer must be notified prior to the proposed closure and all
requirements complied with.
17. All frontage works must match neatly with existing road and verge/footpath features.
Additional works beyond the frontage may be required to provide an acceptable transition to
existing road and verge/footpath profiles.
18. Electrical conduits or other services proposed to be installed within existing and proposed
road reserves under existing sealed carriageways, concrete pathways, concrete/sealed
driveways or significant vegetation must be installed by boring. Trenching is not permitted,
unless specifically approved by Council.
Erosion and Sediment Control
19. Prescribed Water Contaminants (as defined in Schedule 10 of Environmental Protection
Regulation 2019) must not be released from the site or to waters within the site, or be likely
to be released should rainfall occur, unless all reasonable and practicable measures are
taken to prevent or minimise the release and concentration of contamination.
20. Sediment and erosion control measures must be in place prior to works commencing. If such
measures are not in place or are not satisfactory, “on the spot” fines may be issued. Such
fines can be issued if sediments from the site are found to enter or have the potential to enter
Council’s stormwater system, natural waterways, any downstream stormwater filtration
system or adversely impacting on other properties. The sediment and erosion control design
and measures have NOT been approved, it is the site's Supervising Engineer who is
responsible for ensuring that the sediment and erosion control measures have:
a. Been duly designed by an RPEQ or CPESC and constructed in accordance with "best
practise" methods,
b. Been revised by an RPEQ or CPESC to address the issues raised by changes in the
projected construction schedule and/or methods,
c. Been revised to address predicted rainfall events, and
d. Achieve the desired environmental outcomes.
Council may request further controls to be installed should the implemented measures be
found inefficient.
21. The erosion and sediment control measures must be designed, installed and maintained in
accordance with the supervising engineer instructions and the current best practice
standards * (Refer to Advisory Note).
22. The developer must ensure non-essential exposure of soil is prevented by restricting the
extent of disturbance and minimising the duration of soil exposure to adverse weather
conditions and effectively turf, cover or stabilise any disturbed area without delay and prior
to rainfall occurring.
23. The developer must ensure sediment does not leave the site or enter onto adjoining
properties or Council’s drainage system due to surface runoff or on tyres of vehicles and/or
machinery. It is essential to implement appropriate approved erosion and sediment control
measures throughout the site during all phases of construction including vehicle shakedown
pad/grid (or similar) at the access to the construction site. Where sediments or other
contaminants are deposited on a road, they must be removed so as not to enter Council’s
drainage system or waterways.
