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 />

chicken farm does not cause unlawful<br />

environmental harm.<br />

does not cause the loss <strong>of</strong> biodiversity at<br />

state, regional or levels or interfere with<br />

ecological processes.<br />

administrative buildings), sheds, other<br />
