    a) neutralising existing acidity and preventing
       the    generation    of   acid   and   metal

 risks of the natural hazard to an acceptable or         A very small portion of the site’s north western
 tolerable level, and                                    corner is identified as an erosion prone area. The
                                                         site is within an existing urban area, has previously
                                                         been developed and there are no signs of previous
                                                         erosion. Given the above it is not considered that
                                                         there is any actual risk of erosion to the site. No
                                                         other natural hazard areas are identified as
                                                         affecting the site. Development will be undertaken
                                                         in accordance with detailed engineering and

 the potential for damage on the site or to other
 properties, and
 (4) avoids risks to public safety and the
 environment from the location of hazardous
 materials and the release of these materials as a
 result of a natural hazard, and
 (5) maintains or enhances natural processes and
 the protective function of landforms and
 vegetation that can mitigate risks associated with
 the natural hazard, and

 permanent buildings or structures, is located
 outside an erosion-prone area or, where this is not
 feasible, redevelopment:
   a) is located:
        i. as far landward from the seaward property
           boundary as possible, or
       ii. landward of the seaward alignment of the
           neighbouring buildings, and
   b) provides space seaward of the development
       within the premises to allow for the future
       construction of erosion control structures,
       such as a seawall, and
 (8) proposes to undertake coastal protection work
 (excluding beach nourishment) only as a last resort
