22521 – GREENHEAD LEEMAN COASTLINE Reporting Officer: Acting Chief Executive Officer Responsible Executive: Acting Chief Executive Officer File Reference: A1660 Disclosure of Interest: Nil Attachments: Confidential (under separate cover) Voting Requirements: Simple Majority ____________________________________________________________________ Council Role:
Quasi-judicial When Council determines an application/matter that directly affects a person’s rights and interests. The judicial character arises from the obligation to abide by the principles of natural justice eg local planning applications, building licences, other permits/licences (eg under Health Act, Dog Act or local laws and other decisions that may be appealable to the State Administrative Tribunal (SAT)
COMMENT: To review and consider the application submitted by Oceanic Gro for the commercial collection of seven species of seaweed and collection of wrack along the coastline located within reserve 22521 and the installation of a seaweed farm in reserve 22521. For council to review and consider the approval of a planning assessment made to the all applicable state agencies for the purpose of either establishing a lease or a license to perform seaweed farming in reserve 22152. BACKGROUND: The applicant has requested permission from council to perform the following:
- Collection of wrack, - Limited Collection of seaweed samples from the ocean and, - Install offshore seaweed farm(s) along coastline of R 22521
The requested application does not make mention of specific bays located in Reserve 22521. Staff made contact and the applicant referred to appropriate bays as directed by council and state agencies. Reserve 22521 is vested for the purpose of parklands, recreation and camping, with a management order in favour of the Shire. Licenses are required from both the Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development and the Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions.
Shire of Coorow Agenda - Ordinary Meeting 9 December 2020
Page 7
Enquiries made to the Department of Water and Environmental Regulation identified that a clearing permit is not required for the removal of dead seaweed. Please refer to the comments for further clarification.
Permission from the relevant land manager/s (e.g. local government authority) is required for the applicant to progress.
If approval is granted conditions in accordance with adopted local laws, policies and adopted governing documentation are required to be include.
There are no marine reserves located in reserve 22521.
As the reserve is crown land, any proposal will require native title clearance, an aboriginal heritage assessment and a declared rare flora assessment.
COMMENT: If Council wished to exercise a commercial lease, Ministerial permission would need to be sort from the Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage.
Commercial leases over two years also require council to follow provisions of Section 3.58 Disposing of Property, of the Local Government Act 1995.
Council also may need to refer to Sections 189 and 190 of the Land Administration Act 1997. Depending upon the value of the disposition, the Council may need to comply with Section 3.59 Commercial Enterprises by Local Government which includes land transactions.
The other option to investigate, is to seek Ministerial permissions to establish a license to allow the installation of the seaweed farms at approved bays in reserve 22512.
Staff contacted the Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage. The advice sort indicated that a planning assessment be submitted to the relevant State agencies for the purpose of establishing a lease or license.
Other requirements of the applicant are listed below.
Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development
Non-freehold, Crownland or Coastal Water Applications If the proposed site for the seaweed operation is in Coastal waters, applicants are required to provide the following:
• a Management and Environmental Monitoring Plan (MEMP)• an additional information sheet (including a business plan, financial
information, etc.) and• a completed marking and lighting form that will be assessed by the DPIRD and
the Department of Transport.
Shire of Coorow Agenda - Ordinary Meeting 9 December 2020
Page 8
The applicant is also required to have tenure over the proposed land or waters where the aquaculture activity will be conducted. If the site is in Coastal Waters, the applicant will need to apply for a lease from the Minister for Fisheries.
The licensing process involves an internal and external consultation process of 28 days during which time stakeholders, relevant government agencies, industry and community groups can provide their comments on the application.
If the decision-maker is satisfied and decides to grant the licence, the decision to grant will be advertised for a statutory 28 days, during which time affected persons have the opportunity to make an application for review to the State Administrative Tribunal.
If no appeals have been made during this period, the licence can be issued. Overall processing time of aquaculture applications is around 3-5 months.
The applicant will also need to apply for an exemption to collect broodstock, this will allow the collection of small quantities of seaweed for aquaculture purposes. The commercial harvest of seaweed is not generally supported by the Department due to its importance to marine ecosystems.
Department of Water and Environmental Regulation
Dead seaweed washed up on the beach is dead aquatic vegetation, and therefore is native vegetation as defined in ss3(1) & 51A the Environmental Protection Act 1986. However, the taking of this dead seaweed does not constitute "clearing" as defined in s51A of the EP Act. The taking of seaweed: is not the killing or destruction of, the severing/ringbarking of, or the doing of substantial damage to, native vegetation; and is not the removal from an area of native vegetation, because the dead seaweed has already been displaced from its original location. Accordingly, the taking of dead seaweed from the beach does not require a clearing permit under the EP Act.
Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions
A Reg 60 application form is to be submitted in order to be assessed for approval of a commercial license. As the Shire is the land manager the applicant must seek your written permission and any conditions you give them. The licence, when issued states that they must abide by the local government conditions.
Council does not have any adopted policies in relation to this application. Staff recommend this is rectified.
Staff recommend that the applicant is to provide copies of all required documentation as set out by the applicable departments prior to operations commencing
