MANAGEMENT GUIDELINES Estuarine Habitat Management Guidelines b In general, the Council will not support development proposals which will result in the destruction or degradation of fringing wetlands (Swamp Oak and Swamp Mahogany), mangroves, saltmarsh or seagrass beds identified around Brisbane Water since these form important estuarine habitats within Brisbane Water as well as contributing to the natural character of the waterway, unless the applicant can substantiate to the satisfaction of Council or any relevant government authority that the objectives of this plan are not compromised. All proposed development must ensure that these areas are not adversely affected. PRIORITY FOR ACTION O RESPONSIBILITY Council c In instances where development is proposed adjacent to mangrove areas and seagrass beds, the Council will require that adequate buffer zones are provided between the development and the subject habitat area. Reference should be made to the Estuarine Habitat Management Guidelines prepared by the NSW Fisheries with assessment of adequate buffer zones to minimise any adverse impacts of any structures or detrimental uses may have on mangrove, saltmarsh and seagrass areas. O Council Council will not support development within any specified buffer zones outlined with the Estuarine Habitat Management Guidelines unless the applicant can substantiate to the satisfaction of Council and any relevant government estuarine management authority, that the objectives of this plan are not compromised. d Proposed development within or adjacent to Brisbane Water is to have regard for any adjoining important estuarine habitats at all times, particularly during the construction phase. In all instances, Council will require that any impact upon estuarine habitats within Brisbane Water especially mangroves, saltmarsh and seagrass beds is minimised. O Council e Council will actively implement the recommendations and action strategies of the Brisbane Water area – Wetland Management Study.

MANAGEMENT GUIDELINES Estuarine Habitat Management Guidelines PRIORITY FOR ACTION RESPONSIBILITY f In order to ensure that water quality is not adversely affected through increased nutrient levels, the risk of pathogens or other pollutants entering the waterway, the Council will not support any development along the foreshores and catchment area within Brisbane Water unless it can be demonstrated to the satisfaction of Council that adequate sewage and stormwater disposal facilities can be provided. The following general requirements will apply: O Council i) No development is to directly discharge effluent into Brisbane Water or any of its tributary watercourses. ii) Council will require that any future development be connected to the mains reticulated sewer system and/or Council approved compost toilets. iii) Any proposed commercial development or expansion of existing development along the foreshores of Brisbane Water will not be supported by Council, where such development will facilitate an increase in the number of people that can be catered for, unless it can be connected to reticulated sewer. In particular, prospective developers will be required to substantiate that the water quality of Brisbane Water will not be adversely affected. iv) All development works are to be done in accordance with Gosford City Council Code of Practice: Erosion and sedimentation Control. g Council will require that all major boat accommodation facilities (such as commercial or club marinas and commercial or club boat sheds) provide adequate boat sewage, maintenance and rubbish disposal facilities capable of satisfying Council’s standards, in order to minimise the extent of any adverse impact caused by the direct discharge or disposal of effluent and rubbish into Brisbane Water. O Council h Council will ensure in consultation with the Environment Protection Authority that precautions taken with all proposed development to ensure that the discharge of unacceptable levels of pollutants into Brisbane Water does not occur. The Council will require that all existing development or works comply with the requirements of the Clean Waters Act 1990 (as amended). O Council i In instances where premises or activities are subject to license or permit under any Act relating to the maintenance of clan water, as may apply to Brisbane Water in conjunction with any development approval sought from Council, any conditions that such a license may impose, relating to the maintenance or improvement of water quality shall form part of any development approval issued by the Council.
