Attention: Darryl Bibay Your ref: DA-2013-242 Dear Darryl REQUEST FOR NEGOTIATED DECISION NOTICE AND ADOPTED INFRASTRUCTURE CHARGES NOTICE – DA-2013-242 – MATERIAL CHANGE OF USE – NOXIOUS OFFENSIVE OR HAZARDOUS INDUSTRY (EXPLOSIVES STORAGE, ANCILLARY OFFICES AND VEHICLE STORAGE) – 167 BARREN CREEK ROAD CALEN – LOT 26 CI 581 – PAULETTE M CARUANA AND FRANCIS P CARUANA

The following representations are made on behalf of the applicant with respect to conditions within the Development Approval and Adopted Infrastructure Charges Notice, seeking the review and amendment, or deletion.

Representations are made in relation to the Decision Notice and Adopted Infrastructure Charges Notice issued on 21 November 2013, as per Section 361 and Section 677 of the

Sustainable Planning Act 2009 (SPA) respectively.

Requested additional text is highlighted in bold with deletions noted by strikethrough.

A copy of Decision Notice and Adopted Infrastructure Charges Notice DA-2013-242 are attached hereto.

Typographic corrections:

“Hazardous”: précis (page 1); Item 4 (page 2); AICN précis.

“Storage”: précis (page 1); Item 4 (page 2); Condition 1; AICN précis.

Conditions:

11. Hours of Operation Existing Condition: The hours of operation must be limited to 7 am to 7 pm. Monday to Saturday excluding public holidays. Proposed Condition: Delete the condition

tracyh

Received (Manual Date)

2 | P a g e

Justification: The hours of operation set by the condition are inappropriate to the nature of the use being for a storage facility in addition to the use being in a rural locality with no immediate adjoining residences. The following grounds are provided in support of this request:

The premises is a productive cane farm typical of the locality within which farm machinery and haulage vehicles can already operate for up to 24hrs a day.

It is unnecessary and impractical that operations, including deliveries, can only occur Monday to Saturday from 7am to 7pm. Delivery vehicles will often make long distance journeys and it is essential for safety and security that the trucks deliver directly and immediately to the secure compound area rather than idle on the road side or a truck stop, etc. Planning for long distance trips may also require that vehicles depart outside of the regulated hours in order to travel safely and arrive at the receiving depot, etc at appropriate times.

The approved storage facility itself maintains a separation distance of hundreds of metres to any adjoining residence. Furthermore, the approved use is generally not a noise generating activity. Therefore, it is not expected that the depot will impact on any sensitive land use in the locality.

As no direct amenity impacts to adjoining residences are associated with the approved use, it is therefore considered that the general duty under the under the Environmental Protection Act not to cause environmental harm is appropriate in this instance. Assessment Manager Advice 1 “Hours of Work” provides suitable and adequate notice to the applicant in this regard.

17. Security Existing Condition: Security fencing must be provided around the proposed facility in accordance with the relevant Australian Standard. Gates in the fencing and entrances to the storage facilities must be locked at all times and must only be opened to allow access for persons officially authorized to enter the subject site by the manager / operator of the proposed facility. Proposed Condition: Delete the condition Justification: Condition 17 relates to the conditions under which the explosives must be stored, which is the jurisdiction of the Department of Mines and Energy, being the issuing authority of the “Licence to Store Explosives” under the Explosives Act 1999. The generic conditions of approval of the explosives storage licence require that the “holder must ensure the security of all explosives under their control and that unauthorised persons to not obtain access to any such explosives (refer to attached copy of typical licence). Condition 17 is therefore a duplication of the generic conditions of the explosives licence and unnecessarily burdens Council with the ongoing enforcement of a matter more appropriately regulated through the Department of Mines and Energy.

Justification: The site is in a rural locality outside the Priority Infrastructure Area where there are no reticulated urban services (i.e. water / sewerage / stormwater networks). Accordingly, and per ‘in principle discussions’ with Council’s Manager of Development Assessment, it is relevant that a reduced rate of charge be applied to the use. In particular, the proportionate rate of $13,000 over $28,000 for a dwelling house in the Mackay Regional Council area where “water supply or sewerage trunk infrastructure networks are not provided and unavailable outside the urban areas” has been applied. This provides the comparative percentage of infrastructure charge rates of $32.50/m

2 GFA and $4.64/m

2 impervious.

We trust this information is of assistance in Council’s assessment of the request to amend conditions of approval, and look forward to Council’s approval of same in due course. Please contact the undersigned if we can provide any further information.

Dear Leah

REQUEST FOR THIRD PARTY ADVICE FOR MATERIAL CHANGE OF USE - DA.2013.242

I refer to the letter received by the Department of Natural Resources and Mines (DNRM) Mackay office sent on 29 July 2013 that requests third party advice in relation to a material

change of use - noxious offensive or hazardous industry (explosives storage, ancillary offices & vehicle storage) at 167 Barren Creek Road, CALEN QLD 4798 (Application Number DA-

2013-242).

The Explosives Inspectorate, Safety and Health, DNRM regulates explosives in Queensland under the Explosives Act 1999 (the Act) and Explosive Regulation 2003 (the Regulation). An

authority to store explosives is required for any site that stores explosives in Queensland under section 44 of the Act.

In relation to the site at 167 Barren Creek Road, a licence to store explosives is currently held

by Caruana Holdings Pty Ltd. The material change of use development application (the development application) submitted to the Mackay Regional Council for this site lists current and proposed explosives storage for the site, including Class 1 explosives, ammonium nitrate

(AN) and ammonium nitrate emulsion (ANE). The current licence to store explosives for the site covers the "current explosives storage" as listed in the development application. The

Explosives Inspectorate to date has not received an application to alter the current licence to store explosives for this site to increase the storage quantity of explosives based on the

"proposed explosives storage" in the development application.

Based on the information provided in the development application, it is not possible for the

Explosives Inspectorate to confirm that the "proposed explosives storage" complies with the Act or the Regulation. An application to alter the licence to store an additional quantity of

explosives, with required supporting information, would need to be submitted to the Explosives Inspectorate to make this assessment. The increase in the quantity of explosives for the

"proposed explosives storage" may not meet the statutory requirements for storage of

explosives.

Regarding the statutory requirements for the storage of explosives, the following requirements from section 92 of the Regulation apply: . for a class 1 explosive (e.g. boosters and detonators) - Australian Standard 2187.1-

1998 Explosives-Storage, transport and use. Part 1: Storage (AS 2187.1), or an alternate safety measure

. for a precursor (e.g. ANE) - Code of good practice-precursors for explosives (1999) first edition (the precursor code) published by the then Australian Explosives Manufacturers Safety Committee (AEMSC)*, or an alternate safety measure

. for security sensitive ammonium nitrates (e.g. AN) - Explosives information bulletin 53 - Storage requirements for security sensitive ammonium nitrates (SSAN), published by the chief inspector of explosives, or an alternate safety measure

*This is now the Australian Explosives Industry Safety Group (AEISG)

Explosives on telephone 07 3199 8024 or email [email protected].
