                   4. Lot owners are aware of the existence of this assessment and their responsibilities outlined within it,
                      in particular construction, asset protection zone and emergency management. This BAL Assessment
                      does not constitute a comprehensive Bushfire Management Plan.


              9.0 Summary
              The area of “hazard” faced by the proposed development is not great, but the likelihood of wildfire at some
              time is regarded as possible or even likely. Risk mitigation measures should extend beyond construction
              (which is the main focus of this BAL Assessment).

              Along with adequate water supply and emergency management arrangements, compliant construction under
              AS3959-2018 and APZs to reduce the exposure of life and property to bushfire, these combined measures
              assist prepare residents for the possibility of fire in the area.
