4 LEGISLATION AND PLANNING CONTROLS

A full list of legislation and planning controls that could be applicable is included in Appendix 1 in section6 below. Those matters listed in Appendix 1 which would warrant further consideration are listed belowwith responses provided and in some cases further information is provided.

A general assessment of the relevant legislation is carried out in this section but in some instances moredetailed assessment is carried out in section 5.

4.1 LEGISLATION APPPLICABLE TO THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT

The entire list of legislation relevant to the site is included in Appendix 1. From the list of legislation inAppendix 1 the following legislation is considered applicable to be considered for the proposeddevelopment.

4. 1.1 Environmental Planning & Assessment Act 1979 and Regulation 2000(a) Ecolo ical Sustainable Develo ment ESD :The principles of ecologically sustainable development are as follows:

(a) the precautionary principle, namely, that if there are threats of serious or irreversibleenvironmental damage, lack of full scientific certainty should not be used as a reason forpostponing measures to prevent environmental degradation. In the application of theprecautionary principle, public and private decisions should be guided by:(i) careful evaluation to avoid, wherever practicable, serious or irreversible damage to the

environment, and

(ii) an assessment of the risk-weighted consequences of various options,

The development has been designed to utilise existing land and infrastructure that will result inthe least potential for adverse impact from works.

(b) inter-generational equity, namely, that the present generation should ensure that the health,diversity and productivity of the environment are maintained or enhanced for the benefit of futuregenerations,

The management of the development as discussed in this statement proposes the best abilityfor the development to maintain the existing environment. In relation to the protection ofcultural values the development is consistent with the character of the area.

(c) conservation of biological diversity and ecological integrity, namely, that conservation of biologicaldiversity and ecological integrity should be a fundamental consideration,

The design of the development provides the best opportunity for biological diversity andecological integrity of the site to be retained.

(d) improved valuation, pricing and incentive mechanisms, namely, that environmental factors shouldbe included in the valuation of assets and services, such as:(i) polluter pays, that is, those who generate pollution and waste should bear the cost of

containment, avoidance or abatement,(ii) the users of goods and services should pay prices based on the full life cycle of costs of

providing goods and services, including the use of natural resources and assets and theultimate disposal of any waste,

(iii) environmental goals, having been established, should be pursued in the most cost effectiveway/ by establishing incentive structures, including market mechanisms, that enable those

10

PLANNING

best placed to maximise benefits or minimise costs to develop their own solutions andresponses to environmental problems.

The design of the development is to enable development within the values of the site thatcurrently exists without adversely impacting on any adjacent or nearby site or development andwithout interfering with an existing basalt deposit on the land.

The establishment of the development within the Upper Lachlan Shire Council area places thedevelopment under the continuing management of Upper Lachlan Shire Council, which will,through rates and charges continue to manage the infrastructure for cultural and environmentprotection.

(b) Section 4.14 - Consultation and development consent-certain bush fire prone landThe development is not within bushfire prone land.

(c) Section 10.4 - DeclarationThe Applicant has declared on the Development Application form that there are no relevantpolitical donations or affiliations.

4.1.2 Road Act 1993The development will not involve the construction of a driveway access that will involve workson a public road and as such approval is not needed under S138 of the Act for the works on theroad at the access point to proposed Lots.

4. 1. 3 State Environmental Planning Policy No 55 - Remediation of LandSEPP 55 deals with the remediation of land and the consent authority is required to consider theitems listed under Clause 7. As stated by Clause 7:(1) A consent authority must not consent to the carrying out of any development on land unless:

(a) It has considered whether the land is contaminated, and(b) If the land is contaminated, it is satisfied that the land is suitable in its contaminated state (or will

be suitable, after remediation) for the purpose for which the development is proposed to becarried out, and

(c) If the land requires remediation to be made suitable for the purpose for which the developmen t isproposed to be carried out, it is satisfied that the land will be remediated before the land is usedfor that purpose.

(2) Before determining an application for consent to carry out development that would involve a changeof use on any of the land specified in subclause (4), the consent authority must consider a reportspecifying the findings of a preliminary investigation of the land concerned carried out in accordancewith the contaminated land planning guidelines.

(3) The applicant for development consent must carry out the investigation required by subclause (2) andmust provide a report on it to the consent authority. The consent authority may require the applicantto carry out, and provide a report on, a detailed investigation (as referred to in the contaminated landplanning guidelines) if it considers that the findings of the preliminary investigation warrant such aninvestigation.

(4) The land concerned is:(a) Land that is within an investigation area,(b) Land on which development for a purpose referred to in Table 1 to the contaminated land

planning guidelines is being, or is known to have been, carried out,(c) To the extent to which it is proposed to carry out development on it for residential, educational,

recreational or child care purposes, or for the purposes of a hospital-land:(i) in relation to which there is no knowledge (or incomplete knowledge) as to whether

development for a purpose referred to in Table 1 to the contaminated land planningguidelines has been carried out, and

11

^

PLANNING

(ii) On which it would have been lawful to carry out such development during any period inrespect of which there is no knowledge (or incomplete knowledge)."

Contaminated land is defined in SEPP 55 to mean land in, on or under which any substance ispresent at a concentration above the concentration at which the substance is normally presentin, on or under (respectively) land in the same locality, being a presence that presents a risk ofharm to human health or any other aspect of the environment.

A Preliminary Assessment is conducted below in Section 5.

4. 1.4 State Environmental Planning Policy (Rural Lands) 2008The Rural Planning Principles are as follows:(a) the promotion and protection of opportunities for current and potential productive and sustainable

economic activities in rural areas,(b) recognition of the importance of rural lands and agriculture and the changing nature of agriculture

and of trends, demands and issues in agriculture in the area, region or State,(c) recognition of the significance of rural land uses to the State and rural communities, including the

socfo/ and economic benefits of rural land use and development,(d) in planning for rural lands, to balance the social, economic and environmental interests of the

community,

(e) the identification and protection of natural resources, having regard to maintaining biodiversity,the protection of native vegetation, the importance of water resources and avoiding constrainedland,

(f) the provision of opportunities for rural lifestyle, settlement and housing that contribute to the socialonaf economic welfare of rural communities,

(g) the consideration of impacts on services and infrastructure and appropriate location whenproviding for rural housing,

(h) ensuring consistency with any applicable regional strategy of the Department of Planning or anyapplicable local strategy endorsed by the Director-General.

The site has a commercial zoning and is not effected by this SEPP.

4. 1.5 Upper Lachlan LEP 2010The site is within the Upper Lachlan Shire Local Government Area ('LGA') and the ULLEP 2010 isthe applicable Local Environmental Plan.

developments. The policy also requires specified matters to be considered forproposals that are 'potentially hazardous' or 'potentially offensive' as defined by thelegislation.

SEPP 33 defines potentially offensive industry as:"o development for the purposes of an industry which, if the development were tooperate without employing any measures (including, for example, isolation fromexisting or likely future development on other land) to reduce or minimise its impact inthe locality or on the existing or likely future development on other land, would emit apolluting discharge (including for example, noise) in a manner which would have asignificant adverse impact in the locality or on the existing or likely future developmenton other land, and includes an offensive industry and an offensive storageestablishment."

According to the Department of Planning and Infrastructure publication entitledApplying SEPP 33 Guidelines dated January 2011, this development would not likely fallunder the definition "potentially offensive development" by deduction by not beingidentified as Designated Development.

The development would not involve any potentially offensive or hazardous activity.The sheds are proposed for the storage of farm equipment and vehicles. Theinstallation of erosions and sediment controls around the construction sites would notinvolve any potentially offensive or hazardous activity.A flora and fauna assessment undertaken for the quarry development does not NOidentify the site or adjoining land as supporting likely Koala habitat.

SEPP 55 deals with the remediation of land and the consent authority is required to YESconsider the items listed under Clause 7. As stated by Clause 7:(1) A consent authority must not consent to the carrying out of any development on

land unless:

(a) It has considered whether the land is contaminated, andfb) If the land is contaminated, it is satisfied that the land is suitable in its

contaminated state (or will be suitable, after remediation) for the purposefor which the development is proposed to be carried out, and

<c) If the land requires remediation to be made suitable for the purpose forwhich the development is proposed to be carried out, it is satisfied that theland will be remediated before the land is used for that purpose.

(2) Before determining an application for consent to carry out development thatwould involve a change of use on any of the land specified in subclouse (4), theconsent authority must consider a report specifying the findings of a preliminaryinvestigation of the land concerned carried out in accordance with thecontaminated land planning guidelines.

(3) The applicant for development consent must carry out the investigation requiredby subclause (2) and must provide a report on it to the consent authority. Theconsent authority may require the applicant to carry out, and provide a reporton, a detailed investigation (as referred to in the contaminated land planningguidelines) if it considers that the findings of the preliminary investigationwarrant such an investigation.

(4) The land concerned is:(a) Land that is within an investigation area,fb) Land on which development for a purpose referred to in Table 1 to the

contaminated land planning guidelines is being, or Is known to have been,carried out,

(c) To the extent to which it is proposed to carry out development on it forresidential, educational, recreational or child care purposes, or for thepurposes of a hospital-land:
