3. Potential Bushfire Hazard Assessment

State Planning Policy 1/03 (SPP)provides a methodology for assessing the potential

bushfire hazard of any site and surrounds (see Appendix 2).



This methodology allows the measurement of the vegetation, slope and aspect to provide

a Hazard       Rating.


On-site assessment was conducted to produce the following table:-



   Location              Vegetation      Slope             Aspect      Total Score            Hazard
                          + Score      + Score            + Score                             Rating

This assessment confirms that the Bushfire Hazard Rating of the site and surrounds is

Low.




The proposed expansion development is all on Low Hazard area and the surrounds are

also of a Low Hazard status.
