Queensland Water Quality Objectives (2009) have been adopted which
recommend the following minimum reductions in mean annual pollutant loads
leaving a development site compared to the developed unmitigated case:
• 80% reduction in Total Suspended Solid Load;
• 65% reduction in Total Phosphorous Load;
• 45% reduction in Total Nitrogen Load;
• 90% reduction in Gross Pollutant Load.
MUSIC modelling of the proposed treatment train has been undertaken generally in
accordance with Water by Design’s - MUSIC Modelling Guidelines, Version 1.0-2010.
Modelling has been undertaken using the ‘split catchment’ method.
The Rainfall Runoff Parameters for the source catchments have been taken from
table 3.7 of Water By Design’s – MUSIC Modelling Guidelines, Version 1.0 2010 and are
shown in Table 5.4.1.c below.
Table 2.1: Rainfall Runoff Parameters
Pervious Area Properties
Soil Storage Capacity (mm) 18
Initial Storage (% of Capacity) 10
Field Capacity (mm) 80
Infiltration Capacity Coefficient ‘a’ 243
Infiltration Capacity Exponent ‘b’ 0.6
Groundwater Properties
Initial Depth (mm) 50
Daily Recharge Rate (%) 0
Daily Baseflow Rate (%) 31
Daily Deep Seepage Rate (%) 0
Rainfall Threshold (mm) 1
The pollutant load concentrations for each source catchment have been taken
from Table 3.8 of the Water by Design MUSIC Modelling Guidelines Version 1.0, 2010
using the concentrations recommended for Industrial areas.
The model was run for an average rainfall recorded at Cooroy rainfall station
using a 6 minute time step.
