77 Landfill

Landfill is to have no adverse impact upon the visual and natural environment or adjoining and surrounding properties.

In particular—

• only uncontaminated fill is to be used, and

• the form, bulk, scale, and location of landfill are to be controlled to ensure there will be no adverse impacts on adjoining or surrounding properties, and

• the integrity of the physical environment is to be preserved by ensuring the geotechnical stability of the work, and

• the landfill is not to create siltation or pollution of waterways and drainage lines, or degrade or destroy the landscape, landforms or bushlands, and

• where filling to create a building platform is proposed, all fill is to be contained within the footprint of the building, and

• rehabilitation and revegetation techniques are to be applied to the fill to maintain and enhance visual and scenic quality, and

• landfill is not to create airborne pollution.
