                 •    The existing mature vegetated areas will be protected from clearing
                      by the use of environmental covenants.
                  • Current existing clearing rights along boundaries, drainage lines
                      will be negated by application of environmental covenants, thus
                      increasing the areas within protected land.
2.   The revised plans are to locate boundaries clear of mapped vegetation and the mapped
     areas detailed in 1 above.
                  • Response as per point 1
3.   Provide an increased vegetative buffer along the western boundaries of proposed lot 3
     and 5 to McKinnon Drive.
                  • Response as per point 1, in addition the benefits of proving a
                      east/west linkage across the site away from Mckinnon Drive is
                      considered a better ecological outcome, rather than concentrating
                      fauna in an area subject to car strike.
4.   Provide revised plans that demonstrate the proposed development meets Performance
     Outcomes PO1, PO2 of the Biodiversity, Waterways and Wetlands Overlay Code and
     remove lot boundaries through the Mckinnon Drive vegetation.
                  • Response as per point 1
5.   Provide a fencing and gate plan detailing the location of all fencing and fencing
     materials proposed across the development.
                  • Refer point 1 and North Coast Environmental Services’
                     documents entitled Fire break trail plan (16/02/2022)

6. If fencing (or any disturbance) is proposed within the mapped vegetation provide details
   of the extent of clearing including:
   6.1. Total area (m2) of native vegetation to be cleared;
   6.2. Numbers, size and species of native vegetation that will be removed;
   6.3. Provide an arborist report detailing the vegetation and the tree protection zones
   (TPZ); and
   6.4. Indicate on figure/mapping the sections of native vegetation to be cleared and
   include any relevant overlays (e.g. riparian/biodiversity).
                 • Response as per point 1

7. Provide further information as to the areas of the site to be revegetated.
               • Refer North Coast Environmental Services’ documents
                     entitled Fire break trail plan (16/02/2022) and Covenant Area
                     Concept Rehabilitation Plan (17/02/2022)
8. Provide a Rehabilitation Concept Plan.
               • Refer North Coast      Environmental Services’ document
                     Covenant Area Concept Rehabilitation Plan (17/02/2022)

9. Provide additional detail of how the development (e.g. earthworks, proposed roads,
   building envelopes, new drainage channels etc.) will not cause impacts to the natural
   surface water and ground water hydrologic regimes of waterways, wetlands and
   hydrologically sensitive plant communities.
               • I have reviewed the supplied earthworks and drainage plans and
                    have formed the opinion there will be no negative impacts to the
