    36.   All works must be kept clear of any existing or proposed easements on the
          subject land, unless agreed otherwise in writing by the Grantee.
          Earthworks and Retaining Walls
    37.   All earthworks, associated batters and retaining walls must be undertaken in
          accordance with an Operational Works approval, and must in particular:
          a.    Be undertaken in compliance with the provisions of Australian Standard
                AS3798: Guidelines on Earthworks for Commercial and Residential
                Developments.
          b.    Be carried out in accordance with a site-specific Geotechnical Investigation
                Report prepared by a suitably qualified person* that addresses, in
                particular:
                i.    the impact of excavation and the construction works on the stability
                      of nearby building and infrastructures
                ii.   Acid Sulfate Soil assessment report in accordance with State
                      Planning Policy 2/02 Planning and Managing Development Involving
                      Acid Sulfate Soils and supported by appropriate testing and
                      documentation.
          c.    Have all access chamber surface levels for drainage, water supply or
                sewerage infrastructure within the work site be adjusted to provide a
                freeboard of 100mm above the finished ground surface level or be in
                accordance with the requirements and directions of the service provider.
          d.    All fill and associated batters must be contained entirely within the subject
                site unless written permission from the respective landowner(s) is provided
                to Council.
                (*) refer to Advisory Notes
          Acid Sulfate Soils
    38.   Where excavations of non-imported soils below the elevation of 5m AHD are
          necessary for construction, the application for Operational Works for Bulk
          Earthworks, Stormwater and /or Landscaping must demonstrate and include
          certification from a suitably experienced and qualified geotechnical engineer of
          methods necessary to ensure construction and operation of the development:
          a.    Shall be consistent with Queensland Acid Sulfate Soil Technical Manual:
                Soil Management Guidelines; and
          b.    will not result in the release of acid or associated metals; and
          c.    will not cause localised lowering of groundwater.
          Erosion and Sediment Control
    39.   Prior to the completion of the development, all site surfaces must be effectively
          stabilised. For the purpose of this condition, an effectively stabilised surface is
          defined as one that does not, or is not likely to result in visible evidence of soil
          loss caused by sheet, rill or gully erosion or lead to sedimentation, or lead to
          water contamination.
