2 Introduction
This Town Planning Report accompanies a development application over land located at 167 Barren Creek
Road, Calen (refer to Figure 7.1 – Location Plan).
Paulette Maree Caruana and Francis Paul Caruana seek (‘the Applicant’) a Development Permit for a
Material Change of Use – Noxious Offensive or Hazardous Industry to undertake the proposed development.
The Applicant proposes to develop the site to provide for the storage of explosives and ancillary offices and
vehicle storage.
Section 4 – The Proposed Development of this report together with Appendix B – Proposal Plans
contains detailed information with regard to the design of the proposed development.
The proposal is assessable development under the Consolidated Mackay City Planning Scheme 2009
(including amendments 1 of 2009, and 1, 3, & 4 of 2010). The planning scheme requires an impact
assessable development application to be made in this instance.
Section 314 of the Sustainable Planning Act 2009 (“the SPA”) prescribes the requirements for impact
assessment.
Section 6 – Summary of Compliance of this report provides a summary of the proposed development’s
compliance with the applicable provisions of the relevant planning framework. Appendix A – Statement of
Code Compliance to this report contains the complete assessment of the proposed development against
the applicable criteria of the relevant codes of the Consolidated Mackay City Planning Scheme 2009.

3 Site Details and Characteristics
3.1 Site Details
3.1.1 Location
The subject site is situated at 167 Barren Creek Road, Calen and is located with the Rural zone in the
Mackay Hinterland Planning Locality, O’Connell River and Northern Streams approximately 50km north-west
of the Mackay CBD. The site is accessed from the Bruce Highway via 7km of sealed road along McIntyre
Street, Calen Mount Charlton Road and Barren Creek Road.
3.2 Site Characteristics
3.2.1 Current Use of the Site
The majority of the subject site is currently under cane cultivation, whilst additional uses include two
dwellings, a rural shed and an existing Rural Industry.
3.2.2 Road Frontages
The subject site has direct frontage to Barren Creek Road and Barron Pocket Road, both of which are
Council controlled Access Roads constructed to a rural standard. Barren Creek Road bisects the premises
north-south and is sealed up to the access point of the southern dwelling on the site. Barren Creek Road is
unsealed north from this point, while Barron Pocket Road is unsealed for the length of the site frontage.
3.2.3 Existing Significant Vegetation and Waterway Values
A limited extent of mapped remnant vegetation remains on the site, located along the north eastern
boundary of the allotment, away from the proposed use areas. The premises also has a riparian boundary
with Barren Creek through the north of the premises and along the eastern boundary (refer to Appendix G –
Vegetation and Coastal Searches).
3.2.4 Ownership
The registered owners of the subject site are Paulette Maree Caruana and Francis Paul Caruana. Refer to
Appendix D – Current Title Search for details
3.2.5 Easements
There are no easements on the subject site. Refer to Appendix D – Current Title Search and Appendix E
– Registered Survey Plan and Smart Map for details.
3.2.6 Surrounding Land Uses and Zoning
Table 3 below outlines the various land uses and zones of the properties surrounding the subject lot (refer to
Figure 7.2).

3.2.7 Existing Infrastructure and Services
Table 4 provides a description of the location of existing services on-site.
Table 4 Existing Service Location
Water Reticulated water not available in the locality.
Sewerage Reticulated sewerage not available in the locality.
Stormwater There is no stormwater network in the locality.
Electricity Electricity is available in the locality via overhead cable along the eastern
alignment of Barren Creek Road.
Access Due to the rural profile and flat gradient of Barren Creek Road, access is gained
informally at several locations along Barren Creek Road, in particular adjacent to
headlands and the dwellings, while broad turn-outs are provided between the two
rural sheds.
Roads Barren Creek Road and Barron Pocket Road are Council controlled access roads.
The roads are maintained to a rural standard, being a combination of sealed and
unsealed roads with shallow table drains.
3.2.8 Site Contamination
A search of the Environmental Management Register (EMR) and Contaminated Land Register (CLR) was
undertaken on 12 April 2013. This search has confirmed that no part of the subject site is included on the
EMR or CLR (refer to Appendix E – Searches CLR & EMR).
3.2.9 Topography
Contour mapping is not immediately available for the site. However, the topography is described as shallow
gradients across the majority of the cane-producing portions of the site (i.e. up to approx 5%) increasing to
low rolling hills featuring a number of plateaus in the south-west of the site. A visual assessment of the
proposed storage area indicates gradients up to 1 in 7 (14.2% gradient) as typical (refer Figure 1).
Available contour mapping south-east of the site indicates site levels are generally RL 30m AHD and above.
The northern portion of the site (i.e. cane fields north of the northern on-site dwelling) is flood plain
associated with the adjacent Barren Creek system.

3.2.10 Overlay Mapping
The site is affected by a number of Planning Scheme Overlay maps, chief of which are GQAL, Steep Land
and Bushfire. Figures 2-4 below demonstrate the relationship of the proposed storage site to the overlay
mapping.
Steep Land Overlay
The whole of the storage area is mapped as “steep land”. However, a visual assessment of the site indicates
that gradients are generally under 15% and that hills are of a low, rolling profile with frequent plateaus.
Figure 2 Steep Land Overlay

Good Quality Agricultural Land (GQAL) Overlay The proposed storage areas are not located within mapped GQAL. Furthermore, it is noted that cane growing in this area has since ceased due to harvesting difficulties associated with the higher gradients.
Figure 3 GQAL Overlay Bushfire Hazard Overlay There is potential bushfire hazard due to non-remnant vegetation in the south-west corner of the site. On-site management including clearing of trees can be undertaken to maintain safe distances between any fire source and the proposed use.

Background Information:
AS2187.1-1998 Explosives – Storage, transport and use – Storage
Ammonium Nitrate (AN) and Ammonium Nitrate Emulsion (ANE) are Class 5.1 oxidising agents
classed as dangerous goods and are not explosive in their current form. However, a licence to store
under the Qld Explosives Dept Regulations is required.
Storage licences are based on TNT – a high explosive. However, as these agents are less of a risk
the storage licence requirement is less than that which can be legally stored, being 33% of AN plus
70% of ANE.
Ammonium nitrate, while being an oxidising agent used in explosives, is commonly used on farms as
a fertiliser. In this regard, it is noted that ammonium nitrate storage, where for farm purposes would
be subject to a dangerous goods storage licence but for planning and land use considerations would
be ancillary to the predominant use of the premises for Agriculture. There is no hazard associated
with ANE beyond that of ordinary combustible material, and it will not burn under typical fire
conditions.
As the use involves storage and ancillary offices for record keeping etc. no on-site staff or hours of operation
are associated with the use.
4.3 Planning Scheme Definition
The activity is classed as an “Industrial Activity” by means of the storage, whether for sale or not, of any
solid, liquid or gaseous fuel or other dangerous goods referred in the Australian Code for the Transport of
Dangerous Goods (Mackay City Planning Scheme Schedule 1 Dictionary 12.3 Administrative Terms).
The use definition is best described as a Noxious, Offensive or Hazardous Industry:
Any premises used for the handling, processing, treatment, or storage of any materials, whether or
not such materials are considered to be hazardous, where such activity typically gives rise to
noxious, offensive or hazardous effects including excessive smoke, fumes, odours, large quantities
of liquid or solid wastes and the like, all of which require special management.
Such uses, by their nature, are offensive to the general public, and may involve an element of public
risk in their conduct or, when not adequately managed, involve detrimental effects on land beyond
the premises. Examples of noxious, offensive or hazardous industry include abattoirs, bulk fuel
storage in tank farms, cement and lime works, chemical works, food processing works, oil refineries,
rendering works and the like.
4.4 Built Form
The storage facility will consist primarily of tanks and shipping containers located in fenced compounds per
the below images. Two farm sheds are proposed, one of which will be used for chemical storage and the
other for tuck storage. The proponent also proposes to utilise the on-site demountable buildings beside the
existing farm shed east of Barren Creek Road for incidental first aid, office and records (refer to Appendix
B).
The truck storage is not regarded as assessable GFA for the purposes of DA fee calculation or Infrastructure
Charging. Accordingly, the Applicant would be agreeable to a condition of approval restricting use of the
shed from other than vehicle storage.
Minimal earthworks will be undertaken for each storage site to provide a level area for the safe and secure
placement and fencing of the associated tanks, containers and sheds, and existing natural plateaus will be
utilised wherever practicable. The below figures provides examples of the cutting and security fencing
surrounding a typical storage site, plus the nature of the proposed ISO tanks, freight containers, and medium
rigid truck associated with the proposal.
Besides the on-farm storage, the main office is located in Shakespeare Street Mackay (not part of this
application).

4.5 Community Safety
The storage and transport of explosives is regulated through AS2187.1-1998 Explosives – Storage, transport
and use – Storage and the Australian Code for the Transport of Explosives by Road and Rail. The applicant
holds relevant licences for the storage, transport and sale explosives, which can be produced if required.
The location and proposed capacity of each of the storage sites has been determined through examination
of the site and available separation distances to roads and dwellings in the locality, as indicated in Appendix
B and Table 7 below (definitions and setback requirements per AS2187.1-1998).
Class A: Public street, road or thoroughfare, railway, navigable waterway, dock, wharf, pier or jetty, marketplace,
public recreation and sports ground or other open place where the public is accustomed to assemble, open place of work
in another occupancy, river-wall, seawall, reservoir, water main (above ground), radio or television transmitter, main
electrical substation, private road which is the principal means of access to a church, chapel, college, school, hospital or
factory.
Class B: Dwelling house, public building, church, chapel, college, school, hospital, theatre, cinema or other building or
structure where the public is accustomed to assemble, shop, factory, warehouse, store, building in which any person is
employed in any trade or business, depot for the keeping of flammable or dangerous goods, major dam.

SITE F 10,000kg 320m 558m 480m 550m
SITE G 10,000kg 320m 506m 480m 494m
The site is particularly suited to the storage of explosives due to the available distance to any protected works – in this instance dwellings and roads. In the siting and design of explosives storage it is also relevant to consider the potential for future works. In this regard it is noted that dwellings are already established on both adjoining allotments and the subject allotment, meaning that there is very low risk for the potential of future encroaching works.

July 2013 Cardno HRP – HRP12256 15
4.6 Traffic & Movement
Transport of the explosives is regulated through the Queensland Transport Operations (Road Use Management – Dangerous Goods) Regulation 2008 and the Australian Code for the Transport of Dangerous Goods by Road and Rail (7
th Ed 2011). Under the Code, requirements exist for the packaging, labelling and
transport of dangerous goods. However, transport routes are not regulated and therefore the transport vehicles are generally unrestricted as to where they are permitted to travel. Vehicle classes associated with the use include a medium rigid truck as indicated in Figure 2 for the transport of Ammonium Nitrate. Once on farm, the ANE is then pumped to the ISO storage tanks. Detonators and high explosives will be transported by light utility, whilst a medium rigid truck will generally visit the site on a monthly basis for the delivery of magazines. The following is an estimation of expected traffic movements: Medium Rigid Tanker 1-2 per week Light vehicle / ute 3-4 per week Medium rigid truck 1 per month
Delivery vehicles will access the site from the Bruce Highway via McIntyre Street and Barren Creek Road, and then directly to the storage area via the farm access noted in Appendix B. Light vehicles will generally follow the same route except will also access the demountable buildings as required.
4.7 Infrastructure Services
Electricity and telecommunications are connected to the ancillary demountable buildings beside the existing
farm shed. No power or services (eg. water, sewerage) are required or proposed to any of the storage sites.
4.8 Stormwater
There is no stormwater infrastructure in the locality. Being a large farm, runoff from any of the proposed
structures will return to sheet flow within the allotment and will not cause concentration of flow beyond the
premises.
4.9 Adopted Infrastructure Charges
Infrastructure charges are applicable to the development in accordance with Council’s adopted infrastructure
charges resolution (Third Amendment, April 2013).
Nb. The below calculations exclude Clause 4.4 of the Council resolution relating to GFA calculations
on MCU applications across 25% (min) of the site area, as it is understood that Council is no longer
applying this provision.
The below schedules set out the applicable charges and credits in accordance with the Council resolution.

Credits $ 0 $0.00
Net charge Amount $25,440.00
Nb. In consideration of the location of the premises in the rural locality and the absence of any existing or
planned urban services, the adopted rate for a High Impact Industry is not considered appropriate in this
instance. However, the applicable rate for a High Impact Rural activity – i.e. generating road impacts only –
is recommended for adoption as an appropriate rate for Infrastructure Charges. The adopted rate for a High
Impact Rural activity is $20/sqm GFA and nil charge for impervious area.

5 Statutory Town Planning Framework
5.1 Introduction
This section of the Town Planning Report explains the applicable components of the statutory town planning framework and their relevance to the proposed development.
5.2 Sustainable Planning Act 2009
The Sustainable Planning Act 2009 (the SPA) is the statutory instrument for the State of Queensland under which, amongst other matters, development applications are assessed by local governments.
The SPA replaced the now repealed Integrated Planning Act 1997.
The SPA delivers an Integrated Development Assessment System (IDAS) for integrating State and local government assessment and approval processes for development. Relevant stages in the IDAS process including referral and public notification are addressed below.
5.2.1 Impact Assessment
The planning framework relevant to assessing the development application at the time of lodgement
comprises the SPA and the Consolidated Mackay City Planning Scheme 2009.
Section 238 of the SPA prescribes that a development permit is necessary for assessable development, as
declared under the relevant planning scheme.
In this instance, an Impact Assessable development application is required to be made to the assessment
manager to acquire the necessary development permit (refer to Section 5.4 – Consolidated Mackay City
Planning Scheme 2009 of this report).
Section 314 of SPA set out the provisions for assessment managers to assess impact assessable
applications as follows:
“(2) The assessment manager must assess the part of the application against each
of the following matters or things to the extent the matter or thing is relevant to
the development—
(a) the State planning regulatory provisions;
(b) the regional plan for a designated region, to the extent it is not identified
in the planning scheme as being appropriately reflected in the planning
scheme;
(c) if the assessment manager is not a local government—the laws that are
administered by, and the policies that are reasonably identifiable as
policies applied by, the assessment manager and that are relevant to the
application;
(d) State planning policies, to the extent the policies are not identified in—
(i) any relevant regional plan as being appropriately reflected in the
regional plan; or
(ii) the planning scheme as being appropriately reflected in the
planning scheme;
(e) a structure plan;
(f) for development in a declared mater planned area – all mater plans for
the area;
(g) a temporary local planning instrument;
Town Planning Report - Noxious Offensive or Hazardous Industry – Explosives Storage & Ancillary Offices & Vehicle Storage 167 Barren Creek Road, Calen
July 2013 Cardno HRP – HRP12256 18
(h) a preliminary approval to which section 242 applies;
(i) a planning scheme;
(j) for development not in a planning scheme area – any planning scheme or
temporary local planning instrument for a planning scheme area that may
be materially affected by the development;
(k) if the assessment manager is an infrastructure provider – an adopted
infrastructure charges resolution or the priority infrastructure plan.
(3) In addition to the matters or things against which the assessment manager must
assess the application under subsection (2), the assessment manager must
assess the part of the application having regard to the following—
(a) the common material;
(b) any development approval for, and any lawful use of, premises the
subject of the application or adjacent premises;
(c) any referral agency’s response for the application."
According to Section 326 of the SPA:
“(1) The assessment manager’s decision must not conflict with a relevant instrument
unless—
(a) the conflict is necessary to ensure the decision complies with a State
planning regulatory provision; or
(b) there are sufficient grounds to justify the decision, despite the conflict; or
(c) the conflict arises because of a conflict between—
(i) 2 or more relevant instruments of the same type, and the decision
best achieves the purposes of the instruments; or
(ii) 2 or more aspects of any 1 relevant instrument, and the decision
best achieves the purposes of the instrument.”
At the time of the lodgement of the development application, the common material comprises the application
material only. The application material includes an assessment of the proposed development against the
relevant planning documents and the assessment criteria of the SPA. However, information arising from the
subsequent Information and Referral Stage will also form part of the common material to be assessed by
Council.

July 2013 Cardno HRP – HRP12256 19
5.2.2 Referral
Section 254 of the SPA states that:
A referral agency has, for assessing and responding to the part of an application giving
rise to the referral, the jurisdiction or jurisdictions prescribed under a regulation.”
Section 13 of the Sustainable Planning Regulation 2009 (“SPR”) explains that:
For sections 250(a), 251(a) and 254(1) of the Act —
(a) schedule 7, column 2 states the referral agency, and whether it is an advice
agency or a concurrence agency, for the development application mentioned in
column 1; and
(b) schedule 7, column 3 states the jurisdiction of the referral agency mentioned in
column 2.”
The proposed development does not require referral to any agency.
5.2.3 Public Notification
According to Section 295 of the SPA, the notification stage of the IDAS process applies to an application if
either of the following applies –
(a) any part of the application requires impact assessment;
(b) the application is an application to which section 242 applies.”
The proposal requires impact assessment and therefore public notification will be required as part of the
development application process.
Public Notification will be carried out for a minimum of 15 business days as per Section 298 of SPA.
5.2.4 State Planning Regulatory Provisions
A State Planning Regulatory Provision is an instrument made under Division 2 and Part 6 of the SPA for an
area to advance the purpose of the Act by—
(a) providing regulatory support for regional planning or master planning; or
(b) providing for a charge for the supply of infrastructure; or
(c) protecting planning scheme areas from adverse impacts.
A State Planning Regulatory Provision includes a draft State Planning Regulatory Provision.
Section 313(2)(a) of the SPA requires an assessment manager to assess an application against a State
Planning Regulatory Provision to the extent the State Planning Regulatory Provision is relevant to the
development.
At the time of lodgement, the following relevant State Planning Regulatory Provisions were in force:
State Planning Regulatory Provision (Adopted Charges) – July 2012
The draft State Planning Regulatory Provision (Adopted Charges) establishes a maximum adopted
charge for trunk infrastructure, identifies for certain local government areas, priority infrastructure
areas to facilitate some aspects of development sequencing in relation to the charging framework
while those local governments complete their priority infrastructure plans, and provides a default
proportional split that may be levied by a distributor retailer and relevant local government, until 30
June 2013. These State Planning Regulatory Provisions are relevant to the proposed development
as the subject site is located within a local government area to which the State Planning Regulatory
Provisions apply.
Draft Coastal Protection State Planning Regulatory Provision – October 2012
The draft Coastal Protection State Planning Regulatory Provision applies to the assessment of
development applications and master plan applications that are properly made under the period in
which the State Planning Regulatory Provision has effect.
Town Planning Report - Noxious Offensive or Hazardous Industry – Explosives Storage & Ancillary Offices & Vehicle Storage 167 Barren Creek Road, Calen
July 2013 Cardno HRP – HRP12256 20
The draft Coastal Protection State Planning Regulatory Provision applies to all local government
areas in Queensland that contain areas within the coastal zone and has effect for 12 months from
the date of implementation, i.e. until 8 October 2013.
As a result of the Draft State Planning Regulatory Provision, the State Planning Policy 3/11: Coastal
Protection is suspended from operation (as outlined in section 5.2.5).
The Draft Coastal Protection State Planning Regulatory Provision does not affect the proposed
development. The site is not identified as being subject to coastal hazards due to projected climate
change impacts to 2100.
5.2.5 State Planning Policies
A State Planning Policy is an instrument made by the Minister about matters of State interest. As prescribed
by Section 314(2)(d) of the SPA, an assessment manager must have regard to State Planning Policies, if
they are not identified in the planning scheme as being appropriately reflected in the planning scheme.
At the time of lodgement, the following State Planning Policies were in force:
SPP 1/02 Development in the Vicinity of Certain Airports and Aviation Facilities
Queensland Government policy, which sets out broad principles for protecting airports and
associated aviation facilities from encroachment by incompatible developments in the interests of
maintaining operational efficiency and community safety;
SPP 2/02: Planning and Managing Development Involving Acid Sulfate Soils
This State Planning Policy aims to ensure that development involving acid sulfate soils is planned
and managed to avoid the release of potentially harmful contaminants into the environment;
SPP 1/03: Mitigating the Adverse Impacts of Flood, Bushfire and Landslide
This State Planning Policy aims to minimise the potential adverse impacts of flood, bushfire and
landslide on people, property, economic activity and the environment;
SPP 1/07: Housing and Residential Development
This State Planning Policy seeks to ensure that large, higher growth local governments identify their
community’s housing needs and analyse, and modify if necessary, their planning schemes to
remove barriers and provide opportunities for housing options that respond to identified needs;
SPP 2/07: Protection of Extractive Resources
This State Planning Policy identifies those extractive resources of State or regional significance
where extractive industry development is appropriate in principle, and aims to protect those
resources from developments that might prevent or severely constrain current or future extraction
when the need for utilization of the resource arises;
SPP 2/10: Koala Conservation in South East Queensland
This State Planning Policy seeks to ensure koala habitat conservation is taken into account in the
planning process, contributing to a net increase in koala habitat in South East Queensland, and
assist in the long term retention of viable koala populations in South East Queensland;
SPP 3/10: Acceleration of Compliance Assessment
This State Planning Policy provides a standard code for reconfiguring a lot (subdividing one into two)
and associated operational works that require compliance assessment.
Town Planning Report - Noxious Offensive or Hazardous Industry – Explosives Storage & Ancillary Offices & Vehicle Storage 167 Barren Creek Road, Calen
July 2013 Cardno HRP – HRP12256 21
SPP 4/10: State Planning Policy for Healthy Waters
The SPP will ensure that development for urban purposes under the Sustainable Planning Act 2009,
including community infrastructure, is planned, designed, constructed and operated to manage
stormwater and waste water in ways that protect the environmental values prescribed in the
Environmental Protection (Water) Policy 2009.
SPP 5/10: Air, Noise and Hazardous Materials
This State Planning Policy complements the existing management framework by providing a more
strategic focus on the location of industrial land uses. The policy will ensure that planning
instruments provide strategic direction about where industrial land uses should be located to protect
communities and individuals from the impacts of air, noise and odour emissions, and the impacts
from hazardous materials and how land for industrial land uses will be protected from unreasonable
encroachment by incompatible land uses.
Temporary SPP 2/11: Planning for Stronger, More Resilient Floodplains
This State Planning Policy seeks to ensure that development is planned, designed and constructed
to minimise potential flood damage to towns and cities and to improve safety of individuals and
communities.
SPP 3/11 Coastal Protection
This State Planning Policy protects the coastal resources of the coastal zone by setting out criteria
for land-use planning, coastal activities and development assessment, enabling Queensland to
manage development within the coastal zone, including within coastal waters. This aims to satisfy,
in part, the object of the Coastal Protection and Management Act 1995.
The State Planning Policy was suspended on 8 October 2012 pending a full review. The Draft Coastal Protection State Planning Regulatory Provision manages development in the coastal zone.
SPP 4/11: Protecting wetlands of high ecological significance in Great Barrier Reef
catchments
This State Planning Policy seeks to ensure that development in or adjacent to wetlands of high
ecological significance in Great Barrier Reef catchments is planned, designed, constructed and
operated to prevent the loss or degradation of wetlands and their environmental values, or enhances
these values.
SPP 1/12: Protection of Queensland’s strategic cropping land
This State Planning Policy seeks to protect Strategic cropping land (SCL) by ensuring development
impacts on SCL or potential SCL are managed to preserve the productive capacity of the land for
future generations through assessment under this SPP and through imposing conditions on the
development.
SPP2/12 Planning for Prosperity
The purpose of this Temporary SPP is to ensure that economic growth is facilitated by local and
state plans and is not adversely impacted by planning processes. This policy is to be reflected in
State and local government decision making.
The Consolidated Mackay City Planning Scheme 2009 is the relevant planning scheme in this instance (see
Section 5.4 –Consolidated Mackay City Planning Scheme 2009 below). The planning scheme explicitly
identifies that the following abovementioned State Planning Policies are appropriately reflected in the
planning scheme:
SPP 1/02 – Development in the Vicinity of Certain Airport and Aviation Facilities;
SPP 2/02 – Planning and Managing Development Involving Acid Sulfate Soils; and
SPP 1/03 – Mitigating the Adverse Impacts of Flood, Bushfire and Landslide.

6 Compliance Summary
6.1 Introduction
The following sections comprise a summary of compliance against the relevant provisions of the planning
framework as they apply to the proposed development, identified in Section 5 of this report.
More detailed information and responses to the Consolidated Mackay City Planning Scheme 2009 provisions
are included in the Appendices to the Town Planning. Appendix A – Statement of Code Compliance is
particularly relevant in this regard, as it contains an assessment of the proposed development against the
relevant codes of the Planning Scheme.
6.2 State Planning Regulatory Provisions
A list of current State Planning Regulatory Provisions is provided in Section 5.2.4 of this report.
State Planning Regulatory Provisions (Adopted Charges) 2012, which commenced on 1 July 2012, are
relevant to the proposed development. The purpose of the SPRP (Adopted Charges) includes to state the
maximum charge which can be applied for trunk infrastructure and state development for which the charge
may be applied under Chapter 8, Part 1, Division 5A of the SPA.
In accordance with Section 648D of the SPA, by resolution effective 16 April 2012 (the Second Amendment
AICR) the Mackay Regional Council has adopted the maximum charge under the SPRP (Adopted Charges).
A statement about applicable charges in accordance with the Adopted Charges and Council’s resolution is
provided in Section 4.8 of this report.
6.3 State Planning Policies
The development application must have regard to all relevant and applicable State Planning Policies, which
are not incorporated or reflected Consolidated Mackay City Planning Scheme 2009.
The State Planning Policies in force at the time of lodgement, and those which are identified in Consolidated
Mackay City Planning Scheme 2009 as being appropriately reflected in the planning scheme are listed in
Section 5.2.5 of this Report.
No State Planning Policies not reflected within the Mackay City Planning Scheme 2009 have been identified
as being relevant to the proposal.
Nb. The trigger for referral for the purposes of Strategic Cropping Land does not apply as the total GFA
proposed is less than 750m2.
6.4 Consolidated Mackay City Planning Scheme 2009
A comprehensive assessment of the development’s compliance with the relevant criteria in the Consolidated
Mackay City Planning Scheme 2009 has been undertaken below.
6.5 Compliance with Applicable Codes
A comprehensive assessment of the development compliance with the relevant Codes of Consolidated
Mackay City Planning Scheme 2009 is included as Appendix A - Statement of Code Compliance of this
Town Planning Report. Compliance with the Codes is summarised below.
6.5.1 Mackay Hinterland Locality Code
Compliance with the Mackay Hinterland Locality Code is achieved when the development achieves each of
the relevant Specific Outcomes in the Code.
A Statement of Compliance for the Mackay Hinterland Locality Code, including Division 13 for the Rural
zone, is attached in Appendix A.
Town Planning Report - Noxious Offensive or Hazardous Industry – Explosives Storage & Ancillary Offices & Vehicle Storage 167 Barren Creek Road, Calen
July 2013 Cardno HRP – HRP12256 24
The proposal does not comply with P4 of Division 7 Specific Outcomes and Probable and Acceptable
Solutions for the Mackay Hinterland Locality and P6 of Division 13 Overall & Specific Outcomes and
Probable & Acceptable Solutions for the Rural Zone in the Mackay Hinterland Locality, which state:
“Industrial activities are located within the zoned industrial areas of the City”; and
“Non-rural activities do not occur on land included in the Rural Zone”.
The explosives storage is associated with and necessarily ancillary to extractive industry, which has
specifically been included in the definition of a Rural Activity in Schedule 1 “Administrative Definitions” of the
Planning Scheme:
“Rural activity” means the use of land for agriculture, animal husbandry, aquaculture, extractive industries,
forestry, intensive animal husbandry, kennels or a rural industry.
Therefore there the use of the land for explosives storage may be more appropriately regarded as a Rural
Activity than an Urban Activity.
Due to the conflict with the Specific Outcomes, the proposal must be assessed with regards to the intent of
the Code, being the Overall Outcomes of the Mackay Hinterland Locality. The following Overall Outcomes
have been identified as relevant to the proposal.
Industrial uses which are relatively small scale and have low impact are located within the Industry
(Low Impact) zone whilst those industrial uses which are larger in terms of site requirements,
infrastructure requirements or impact, are situated in the Industry (High Impact) zone.
Due to the separation distances required from the explosives storage to a public road, there is no industrial
zoned land – either low impact or high impact – which would satisfy the licence requirements for the storage
of dangerous goods. Therefore there is no industrial land available which is suitable for the proposed use.
Non-rural activities in rural areas are limited to activities which specifically require the particular rural
location and do not adversely affect the operation of rural uses, or the rural landscape and character
of the area.
Whilst the site has characteristics which make it suitable for the storage of explosives (i.e. constructed road
access, available separation distances), the use is not a location specific use.
The use is demonstrated as capable of existing without impacting on the rural activities and rural landscape
by consideration that:
o The proposed storage areas are not located on GQAL and do not alienate any GQAL from
ongoing production;
o The proposed storage areas are relatively small and will not interfere with normal farm
operations;
o The storage of ANE is otherwise consistent with normal farm operations where associated
with use as a fertiliser; and
o The storage areas are set well back from the road reserve and can take advantage of
existing non-remnant vegetation for screening and integration within the rural landscape.
By nature of the separation distances required for the storage of explosives, the only area in which the use
can locate within Mackay is the rural locality.
In this instance it is also appropriate to consider the Desired Environmental Outcomes in Part 3 of the
Planning Scheme. The following DEO’s have been identified as relevant to the proposal:
(a) Biodiversity and Habitat/ Natural Features:
(i) significant natural features1 are conserved and their values are not compromised in order to sustain
ecological processes and maintain biodiversity in the City for present and future generations.
1 The significant natural features which contribute to the City's biodiversity include: the Clarke and Connors Ranges and the low coastal ranges and hills which support remnant bushland and important wildlife
corridors and refuges;
Town Planning Report - Noxious Offensive or Hazardous Industry – Explosives Storage & Ancillary Offices & Vehicle Storage 167 Barren Creek Road, Calen
July 2013 Cardno HRP – HRP12256 25
(vi) a balance is achieved between the conservation and use of natural resources in order to achieve
sustainable economic, social and ecological outcomes.
The development will have a small footprint and will not impact on natural or ecological processes.
(c) Economic Development
(i) economic resources such as good quality agricultural land, forests, fisheries, extractive materials, water and land resources are protected from the adverse or limiting effects of proximate, incompatible activity for future ongoing use. Good quality agricultural land is made available for urban uses only with a demonstration of overriding community need.
2
It is demonstrated throughout this report that the use is proposed outside of any area of Good Quality Agricultural Land, and will not conflict with or impact on agricultural production within the site or on adjoining land. Therefore, no GQAL will be lost or alienated, whether temporarily or permanently, as a result of this proposal.
1. Rural land:
(A) is protected from incompatible land uses, particularly urban (including but not limited to residential, industrial and commercial) uses;
(B) is maintained in agricultural use, where possible, in order to ensure the viability of the sugar industry in the City; and
(C) provides opportunities for use for a wide range of rural activities (including
agriculture, animal husbandry, aquaculture, extractive industries, forestry, intensive
animal husbandry, kennels or a rural industry) and water supply development.
Whilst the DEO identifies industrial activities as incompatible with rural land, it is noted that the nature of the
particular is not inconsistent with that of rural uses:
The predominant form of activity is storage of chemicals, which is also typical of common agricultural
use and is ancillary to extractive industries.
The use does not involve any on-site staff as it is a storage facility only, whereas staff will only be
present during deliveries and for general monitoring and maintenance.
Traffic generation associated with the use will be very low, comprising on average one light vehicle
movement per day and one heavy vehicle (medium rigid) movement per week.
Further to the above considerations, reference is made to Statutory Guideline 05/09 Sufficient Grounds for
Decisions That Conflict with a Relevant Instrument (Queensland Government 11 December 2009). In
particular:
The relevant instrument inadequately addresses development; and
The relevant instrument does not anticipate specific or particular development.
The type of development proposed is not adequately addressed by the Planning Scheme as the Specific
Outcomes, Overall Outcomes and Desired Environmental Outcomes do not adequately address this
particular form of development which has setback requirements which make it unsuitable for location within
the identified preferred industrial areas or any urban locality. Therefore it is impossible to identify a site which
meets both the outcomes of the Planning Scheme and the safe storage requirements of the dangerous
goods codes.
the drainage systems, such as the O'Connell River, Pioneer River and the smaller coastal streams, which provide wildlife corridors
and nourishment for the City's ecosystems; the riparian vegetation along the City's waterways; the coastal wetlands, beaches and bays which either abut or lie adjacent to the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park and the Great
Barrier Reef World Heritage Area; and
the Cumberland Islands which sit within the Great Barrier Reef World Heritage Area. 2 As required by State Planning Policy 1/92 ‘Development and the Conservation of Good Quality Agricultural
Land’.
Town Planning Report - Noxious Offensive or Hazardous Industry – Explosives Storage & Ancillary Offices & Vehicle Storage 167 Barren Creek Road, Calen
July 2013 Cardno HRP – HRP12256 26
Whilst the Planning Scheme identifies Noxious Offensive or Hazardous Industry, it fails to provide any
guidance as to where such industry may occur beyond that of the Region’s sugar mills.
6.5.2 Industrial Code
Compliance with the Industrial Code is achieved when the development achieves each of the relevant
Specific Outcomes in the Code.
A Statement of Compliance for the Industrial Code is attached in Appendix A.
In summary, the development complies with each of the relevant Specific Outcomes and is therefore
consistent with the Industrial Code.
6.5.3 Environment and Infrastructure Code
Compliance with the Environment and Infrastructure Code is achieved when the development achieves each
of the relevant Specific Outcomes in the Code.
A Statement of Compliance for the Environment and Infrastructure Code is attached in Appendix A.
In summary, the development complies with each of the relevant Specific Outcomes and is therefore
consistent with the Environment and Infrastructure Code.
6.5.4 Bushfire Management Overlay Code
Compliance with the Bushfire Management Overlay Code is achieved when the development achieves each
of the relevant Specific Outcomes in the Code.
A Statement of Compliance for the Bushfire Management Overlay Code is attached in Appendix A.
In summary, the development complies with each of the relevant Specific Outcomes and is therefore
consistent with the Bushfire Management Overlay Code.
6.5.5 Good Quality Agricultural Land Overlay Code
Figure 3 above demonstrates that the proposed storage sites are located outside the mapped areas of Good
Quality Agricultural Land. The ancillary demountable buildings, whilst being located within a mapped area of
GQAL, are located within the curtilage of the existing farm buildings and therefore do not create any impact
on GQAL. Therefore, the Good Quality Agricultural Land Overlay Code has not been further addressed.
6.5.6 Development on Steep Land Overlay Code
Notwithstanding that the south-west portion of the site is mapped as Steep Land, a visual assessment
indicates the area only contains low rolling hills with gradients under 15%. As no steep land is present and
the proposal only involves the placement of storage containers and two sheds within this area, the Steep
Land Overlay Code has not been further addressed.

Community Safety Design Principles
Not Applicable – The development is located in a rural environment and only involves secured storage areas and small site offices for incidental record keeping etc purposes.
Therefore the development does not impact on the principles of community safety and this section has not been further addressed.
Constructed Lakes
Not Applicable – No constructed lakes are proposed.
BUSHFIRE MANAGEMENT OVERLAY CODE
Infrastructure
Specific Outcomes Acceptable / Probable Solutions Discussion
P1 Development maintains the safety of people and property by:
(i) avoiding the areas of High or Medium bushfire hazard as indicated on the Bushfire Management Overlay Map; or
(ii) mitigating the risk through:
allotment design and the appropriate siting of building; and
including firebreaks that provide adequate setback between buildings / structures and hazardous vegetation and access for fire fighting and other emergency vehicles; and
providing adequate road access for fire fighting and other emergency vehicles and safe evacuations; and
providing an adequate and accessible water supply for firefighting purposes.
S1.1 Development is located on land that is not subject to High or Medium bushfire hazard as indicated on the Bushfire Management Overlay Map; or
S1.2 For all development:
(1) buildings and structures on lots greater than 2,500m²;
achieve setbacks from vegetation of 1.5 times the predominant mature canopy tree height or 10 m, whichever is greater; or
10 m from any retained vegetation strips or small areas of vegetation;
(2) buildings and structures on lots 2,500m² or less are serviced by the following:
a reticulated water supply that has sufficient flow and pressure characteristics for fire fighting purposes at all times (minimum pressure flow of 10 litres a second at 200 KPA); or
Complies
It is noted that the proposed storage areas are located within areas identified as medium risk bushfire hazard. An inspection of the site and review of RE mapping (Appendix G) indicates the area contains bushland that
is not subject to assessment for clearing under the Vegetation Protection Act.
The probable solutions in S1.2 and S1.3 will be met through implementation of the following:
clearing of trees immediately surrounding the storage compounds as required for batter slope works associated with providing the level storage areas.
Maintenance of the storage areas free of combustible material.
Location of the tanks / containers within the compounds so as to maintain a minimum separation distance greater than 10m form any potential fire source.
The farm access provides an immediate

an o- site storage of not less than 5,000 litres (e.g. accessible dam or tank with fire brigade fittings, or swimming pool).
S1.3 Firebreaks are provided by:
(a) a perimeter road that separates lots from areas of bushfire hazard and that road has:
a. a minimum cleared width of 20m; and
b. a constructed road width and all weather standard in accordance with Engineering Standards Planning Scheme Policy or
(b) fire maintenance trails which:
have a minimum cleared width of 6m;
have vehicular access at each end;
provide passing bays and turning areas for firefighting appliances;
are either located on public land, or within an access easement that is granted in favour of Council and QFRS; and
cleared breaks of 6m minimum width are provided within retained bushland within the site (e.g. creek corridors and other retained vegetation) to allow burning of sections and access for bushfire response.
evacuation route away from the vegetated area, and access for fire fighting purposes.
As no habitable buildings are proposed, no water supply for fire fighting purposes is required. However, fire fighting equipment will be maintained at each storage site as required under the licence requirements of the dangerous goods storage codes (refer Figure 5).
P2 For development that will result in multiple buildings or lots (being Community Title Lots):
(1) buildings and structures are sited on lots that are designed so that their size and shape allow for:
(a) efficient emergency access to buildings for firefighting appliances (e.g. by avoiding long narrow lots with long access drive to buildings);
(b) setbacks and buildings siting in accordance with 1.2 above.
