Review of Environmental Factors - Construction of Water and Sewer Services Infrastructure - South Jerrabomberra

Consultation has concluded

CEC4 (Canberra Estates Consortium No.4) have engaged Knight Frank Town Planning, with the assistance of Calibre Consulting and the Village Building Company, to prepare the assessment on the proposed water and sewer servicing infrastructure that CEC4 will construct on behalf of Queanbeyan Palerang Regional Council (QPRC). This Review of Environmental Factors (REF) has sought to identify the potential environmental impacts of design and construction of the proposed trunk water supply and sewer infrastructure required to service future development within South Jerrabomberra, in particular the South Tralee Urban Release area.

This REF has identified and assessed the short and long term impacts of the proposed scheme and identified measures to minimise or negate potential impacts.

To service the South Tralee Residential area, the proposed scope of works includes the following:

• Sewer Pump Station
• High level reservoir
• Low level reservoir
• Trunk water and sewer mains

The objective of this REF is to determine a suitable strategy to deliver sewer and water services to the future residential area of South Tralee. The primary objectives are:

• To deliver a strategy that is both cost effective and of suitable size to cater for future residents in South Tralee and make allowance for other future development in South Jerrabomberra
• Reduce any potential risks to public health
• Improve public amenity
• Increase development potential and servicing for both South Tralee and surrounding areas

Development consent is not required for the proposal and the proposal is subject to a Review of Environmental Factors and determination under Part 5 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979. QPRC is the determining authority for the proposal.
