4.2 Natural environment<br />
<strong>Meat</strong> chicken farms must be developed and managed so that the potential for significant impacts<br />
on the natural environment are minimised. This is achieved by avoiding removal <strong>of</strong> significant<br />
vegetation and by ensuring appropriate separation distances to surface water.<br />
Performance criteria<br />

Buildings, sheds, other structures, and waste<br />
disposal areas must be sited, constructed<br />
and managed so that operation <strong>of</strong> the meat<br />
chicken farm does not cause unlawful<br />
environmental harm.<br />
P2<br />
The development <strong>of</strong> the meat chicken farm<br />
does not cause the loss <strong>of</strong> biodiversity at<br />
state, regional or levels or interfere with<br />
ecological processes.<br />
P3<br />
<strong>Meat</strong> chicken farms do not cause the loss or<br />
degradation <strong>of</strong> surface waters, marine parks<br />
or declared fish habitats.<br />
Acceptable outcomes<br />
A1<br />
Buildings (excluding residential or<br />
administrative buildings), sheds, other<br />
structures and waste disposal areas must be<br />
set back from surface water, and declared<br />
fish habitat areas in accordance with the<br />
distances set out in Appendix 1.<br />
A2<br />
