Issue – Engineering - flood storage

Although the letter from Rienmac Pty Ltd, dated 5 May 2017 touch on impacts on the revetment wall, greater and more specific certification is required. In particular, with regard to the “Noosa Waters Geotechnical Investigation Revetment Stability Report” dated April 2014 prepared by GHD, consideration of flood storage for the proposal needs to be certified and clarification regarding the risk is also required.

Information Required

Provide certification from a suitably qualified engineer (RPEQ) that states:
the construction of and the completed works will not reduce the factor of safety for the stability of the soil and revetment wall. The certification must give consideration and make reference to the data included in the geotechnical report “Noosa Waters Geotechnical Investigation Revetment Stability Report” dated April 2014 prepared by GHD for Noosa Council

the works will not pose a risk to the membrane of the revetment wall

the works will not reduce the flood storage volume within the site.
