General Advisory Notes
1. Council has undertaken an audit check of the Operational Works drawings in relations to the
proposed works. A detailed check of the calculations and drawings has not been undertaken,
as they have been certified by a RPEQ. The RPEQ bears full responsibility for all aspects of
the engineering design. Council reserves the right to require further amendments and/or
additions at a later date should design errors become apparent.
2. Should any changes or modifications to the approved plans be required as a result of
construction constraints, a “Request to change an existing approval” under the Planning Act
2016 must be made. Amended plans clearly indicating the changes must be lodged with this
application along with the appropriate fees.
Environmental Advisory Notes
3. The Environmental Protection Act 1994 states that a person must not carry out any activity
that causes, or is likely to cause, environmental harm unless the person takes all reasonable
and practicable measures to prevent or minimise the harm. Environmental harm includes
environmental nuisance. In this regard persons and entities, involved in the civil, earthworks,
construction and landscaping phases of this development are to adhere to their ‘general
environmental duty’ to minimise the risk of causing environmental harm.
