           TABLE 1

                     NOISE LIMITS AT A SENSITIVE RECEPTOR

                            Noise level at noise sensitive place measured as the adjusted
             PERIOD
                            maximum sound pressure level (L10, adj,T)

             7am – 6pm          Background noise level (L90,T) plus 5 dB(A)

             6pm – 10pm         Background noise level plus 5 dB(A)

             10pm – 7am     Background noise level plus 3 dB(A)

                     NOISE LIMITS AT A COMMERCIAL PLACE

                            Noise level at a commercial place measured as the adjusted maximum
             PERIOD
                            sound pressure level (L10, adj,T)

             7am – 6pm          Background noise level (L90,T) plus 10 dB(A)

             6pm – 10pm         Background noise level plus10 dB(A)

             10pm – 7am         Background noise level plus 8 dB(A)

Acoustic Report
16.   An acoustic report prepared by a suitably qualified person* is to be submitted to council
      confirming assessment and certification of measured noise levels from the new mechanical
      plant and equipment, a/c units, motors, refrigeration equipment, compressors, pumps etc
      comply with the noise limits as set out in Table 1 and all other relevant noise conditions of
      this Decision Notice associated with Stage 4 of the development.
17.   The report is to be submitted after commissioning any new equipment (with aall plant and
      equipment operating at the same time) and when all building extensions are complete.
18.   Measurement of sound pressure levels (adjusted for tonality and impulse) must be in
      accordance with Australian Standard AS1055.1 “Acoustics – Description and measurement
      of environmental noise – General procedures”.
      Suitably Qualified Person* - Certification
      For the purpose of measuring and certifying compliance with relevant noise conditions of this
      Decision Notice, a suitably qualified person is either:
      i.      a Registered Professional Engineer of Queensland, or
      ii.     an environmental consultant with a minimum of three (3) years current experience in
              the field of acoustics.
      Outdoor Lighting Devices
19.   Lighting associated with the use must be designed, sited, installed and tested to comply with
      Table 2.1 & 2.2 of Australian Standard AS4282-1997 “Control of the obtrusive effects of
      outdoor lighting” using a control level of 1 and not cause a nuisance to the adjacent
      residential areas.
20.   Vehicle headlight emissions from the carpark are to be adequately shielded to prevent
      spillage beyond the site into any adjacent residential buildings.
