Attachment 10-Air Quality and Odour Assessment · MCU23/0078

It is important that an incident or complaint procedures be established. The following actions should be defined
in the plan to address any incidents or complaints from the community:
        Carry out immediate action or appropriate solution
        Notify relevant authorities
        Establish open communication with the affected receptors
        Investigate the incident and identify preventive or corrective measures
        Assign responsibility for implementing the corrective measures


7.           ODOUR MANAGEMENT PLAN
It is recommended that the above procedures be included in an Odour Management Plan for the site. The
OMP should further develop and pull together the recommendations identified in the above sections. For
example, the OMP may include:
◼    Checklist form for Stage 1 Diagnosis and Stage 2 Measures. An example form is provided in Appendix
     A.
◼    Complaints handling forms to be filled out to provide a log of air quality complaints and a record of how
     complaints are handled. An example form is provided in Appendix B.
◼    Procedures and forms for recording restaurant tenancy details and implemented air/odour control at each
     tenancy.


8.           CONCLUSION
A qualitative air quality and odour assessment has been conducted for the proposed Noosa Civic Village mixed-
use development at 69 Hofmann Dr, 46 Walter Hay Dr, and 28 Eenie Creek Rd, Noosaville. Based on the
review, the following points have been drawn:
◼    The proposed development includes the construction of retail and commercial shops, with certain leasing
     spaces earmarked for restaurants and commercial kitchens. The potential for air pollution and odour
     nuisance will depend on several factors, including the scale of operations, nature of food preparation, and
     the efficiency of control measures.
◼    The nearest sensitive receptors are the onsite residential receptors located directly above, and within
     30 meters from the prospective restaurant locations. Following the review of the local meteorology
     (Section 4), prevailing weather conditions in the area indicate an expected reduction in air quality
     degradation and odour impact on these receptors.
◼    Implementation of appropriate and suitable emission control measures tailored to the specific type of
     restaurant/cooking is expected to reduce and prevent air pollution and odour nuisance. Section 6
     presents an air quality management procedure that can be implemented for the site to achieve this
     outcome.
◼    It is recommended that an Odour Management Plan be developed for the site during the detailed design
     stage. This OMP should incorporate the procedures/recommendations of this assessment and other
     components (e.g. complaint handling forms).
In conclusion, from an air quality perspective, the impact of emissions on sensitive receptors can be mitigated
to acceptable levels through appropriate control measures and implementation of an emissions or odour
management plan.
