Decision Notice - 010.2008.00000749.001 [As Published] · 142008.749

                                                                                         2008/749



4.    All disturbed and exposed areas of proposed dam 3 are to be suitably stabilised by the
      planting of local native species, at distances no more than 1 metre between stems, within 20
      metres of the full ponded level of the southern dam on the lot, excluding 3 metre wide access
      tracks and dam walls. The plantings are not to effect the structural integrity of the dam.
5.    Within the designated planting area of proposed dam 3 , the area is to be kept free of
      undesirable species (as per the Noosa Plan Planning Scheme Policy 3 - Landscaping Plants
      and Guidelines) for a period of no less than a year from the date of the operational works
      permit approval.
      All plantings are to be kept free of grass species within a 200mm radius of each stem.
6.    Sediment and erosion control measures shall be maintained on site until all disturbed areas
      have been revegetated or otherwise stabilised. The erosion and sediment control measures
      shall be in accordance with current “best practise” guidelines (the Manual for Erosion and
      Sediment Control version 1.2 prepared by Sunshine Coast Regional Council). If sediment and
      erosion control 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 or natural waterways. Although initial sediment
      and erosion control measures have been placed on site, Council’s Chief Executive Officer may
      request further controls to be installed should approved measures be inefficient.
7.    A compliance bond of $2000 is to be submitted to Council to ensure that all conditions of this
      approval are met. The bond monies shall be retained by Council for a minimum period of 12
      months or until all disturbed areas are revegetated or otherwise stabilised to the satisfaction of
      Council’s Chief Executive Office. Such bond must be lodged by, and shall only be accepted
      from the Developer for the works.
8.    The dams, spillways and downstream drainage paths shall be suitably maintained to ensure
      the structural stability of the dams and to prevent erosion of the spillways and the outlet
      drainage paths.
9.    The principal contractor must have all the appropriate insurance and public liability
      documentation to carry out the works. The principal contractor is also responsible to ensure
      that any sub contractors also have the appropriate insurance and public liability
      documentation.
10.   Council standards shall apply to these works unless otherwise modified herein.
11.   The person acting on this permit shall ensure that its consultants and contractors take all
      reasonable care during the construction of the engineering works to ensure that Council
      property, road pavements or facilities (such as underground drainage, water supply,
      sewerage, footpaths, kerbing, landscaping, street furniture etc.) are protected against any
      damage or interference whatsoever.
      If any Council property or facilities should be damaged by the Applicant or any of its
      Consultants or Contractors through any cause whatsoever in the course of, directly or
      indirectly, carrying out the engineering works, the Applicant and/or its Contractors shall
      forthwith notify the Manager-Land Development and shall forthwith rectify the damage to that
      property or facility at its cost and to the satisfaction of the Manager-Land Development, prior to
      the release of any bonds or, alternatively, the Applicant may request the Council to carry out
      the rectification work at the Applicant’s cost, such cost being paid by the Applicant to the
      Council prior to the release of any bonds, provided that in the case of emergency the Council
      shall be entitled to rectify such damage at the cost of the Applicant, such cost being paid prior
      to the release of any bonds.
