NATURAL HAZARDS OVERLAYS CODE
The purpose of this code is to ensure:

    a) development in areas at risk from natural hazards is compatible with the nature of the natural
       hazard;
    b) the risk to people, property and the natural environment from natural hazards is minimised;
    c) development does not result in a material increase in the extent or severity of natural
       hazards; and
    d) for acid sulfate areas—the generation or release of acid and associated metal contaminants
       into the environment is avoided

Comment: The subject site is identified as being affected by acid sulfate soils. Standard conditions
can be imposed in relation to acid sulfate soils management.
