        The following is the required fuel brief for the proposed Quad Bike Tours at 298
                                                        .




        Tablelands Road Cooran.


        Joint testing ofthe proposed quad bikes to be used, namely Kymco MXU 300, by
        both ourselves and Kymco agents concluded that no more than 1.6litres ofpetrol
        would be consumed per bike per tour. This amounts to a maximum of 19.2litres per
        tour, should all bikes be involved and at a maximum fuel consumption.

        As such the maximum amount of fuel required for a full day would amount to less
        than 40 litres. This is way below the minor quantities set out in ASI940 and estimates
        for rural storage use.


        We propose to ensure refuelling is done on a daily basis conducted in the late
        afternoon. The purchase, transport and refuelling of fuel will be done after all daily
        tours have concluded and no guests are present. The amount of fuel purchased on a

        daily basis will be as close to actual fuel used, never exceeding 40 litres at anyone
        time. All fuel containers will be approved in accordance to AS2906.


        All bikes will be refuelled over a spillage tray located away from the proposed bike
        storage area. An antistatic ground cable will be attached prior to opening ofthe fuel
        cap. A fire extinguisher shall be within reach for class
                                                                 B fires (dry chemical or carbon

        dioxide). Decant to refuel shall be done using an approved manual pump from the
        container to the bikes tank. Filling of fuel tanks will be restricted to 2 litres below
        maximum capacity at all times to avoid spillage.


        All person required to refuel bikes will undergo sufficient training to do so. All
        procedures shall be in accordance to safe procedures for minor quantities as set out by
        the university of Queensland, OHS and AS 1940.


        Should you require additional information, please contact me at your convenience.

To whom it may concern,



For the purpose of confirming decibel (dB)ratings on our MXU300 range of All Terrain Vehicles
for potential use by Noosa Quad Bike Tours, Kymco Australia have conducted sound tests in
various prescribed situations to align with council requirements on testing.


Please find below all test results recorded during testing and the equipment used in the

process:

To whom it may concern,


For the purpose of further establishing noise test results for the use of Kymco ATVs by Noosa

Quad Biking Tours, the following test results were recorded when measuring sound within close
proximity to neighboring properties.



Onsite sound test results:

                                                                                                   from 1m
Uninterrupted source of sound at point X was constant 85db generated motor noise measured
distance. During which levels were recorded at the various points A to E. The average noise levels at

each point exceeded 40db due to natural noises. As such the minimum recorded levels over a time
                                                                                                 X of 85db
duration recording graph are used, with no change to the constant noise generation at point

during that time interval.                 ,   ..tf’                                         ~




                                                                                        X on noise plan are;
The lowest recorded readings with a constant 85db motor noise generation at area

A 32db    B 34db C 34db 032db E 32db


                                                                                       sound no greater
Conclude that a motor sound of 85db at the area marked X on plan would create a

than 30db at any neighbouring property.
