NATURALRESOURCESNATURAL RESOURCESCASE STUDYPacific Pines stormwater management, QueenslandWATER USAGE IN DEVELOPING OUR RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITIESAND IN OUR RETIREMENT VILLAGESWe have collected data on water use from our projects (44 per cent) in ResidentialCommunities, Apartments and in the four Retirement Living projects where we have controlover water use for the first time this year. The total potable water consumed across the yearwas 73,066 kL, while 279,771 kL of non-potable water was used. Potable water thereforemakes up 26 per cent of total reported water use.Water in Residential Communities is typically used by civil and landscape contractors duringsite development and construction. This includes water for site dust management, road layingand landscape watering. This is typically where non-potable water would be used but whenthis is not available, or too expensive, potable water will be used. There are also project siteand sales offices that use potable water. Apartment projects will typically access municipalor city water suppliers for construction usage. The exception to this was our Islands projectin Western Australia which was able to source over 90 per cent of its requirements fromnon-potable sources. We collected data on water use for three of the four Retirement Livingprojects where we control water use and the majority of water used (97 per cent) was potablevia the city water supply in Melbourne.We will improve data accuracy in FY10 by including water reporting requirements in themonthly health, safety and environment report that is completed by contractors on our sitesand by improving the accuracy of data collected for direct Stockland activities.RESIDENTIAL AND RETIREMENT LIVING WATER METRICSWATER CONSUMPTION (kL) Potable Non-potable TotalPercentagepotableResidential Communities 46,967 259,215 306,182 15%Apartments 12,127 20,196 32,323 38%Retirement Living 13,972 360 14,332 97%Total 73,066 279,771 352,837 26%Boundary: Water use data is a mix of data supplied by contractors and water consumeddirectly by Stockland operations. Data is obtained through a combination of invoices andestimates. Data has been reported for 44 per cent of projects.STORMWATER MANAGEMENTIN OUR RESIDENTIALCOMMUNITIESIncreasing urban densities make theneed to manage water and reduceour impact on the environment evermore pressing. We have introducednew water treatment methodologiesto capture stormwater runoff in ourresidentials at Pacific Pines andRiverstone Crossing in Queensland.Pacific PinesProviding open space is often arequirement for our residentialcommunities. However, the provisionof larger active recreation areas canconflict with community expectationsfor better stormwater treatment. In FY09our Residential business constructed anaquifer for stormwater management atour Pacific Pines residential in Gaven inQueensland. The aquifer meets requiredstormwater objectives and provides aviable source of water for irrigating theopen space areas in the vicinity.Riverstone CrossingSet on 194 hectares, RiverstoneCrossing in the northern Gold Coast willcomprise approximately 718 allotments.In developing this community ouraim was to provide an alternate watersupply to maintain the parklands andplaygrounds, whilst improving thequality of stormwater runoff from thedevelopment.To achieve these objectives, wedesigned the development to includeswales, bio-retention, householdrainwater tanks, and gross pollutanttraps. We also included a 1 MLRainVault community system tocapture the three-month flow and retainthe treated runoff for irrigation.Incorporating these systems reducesthe development’s reliance uponpotable supply for irrigation purposesand reduces the ongoing long-termimpacts of urban runoff on waterways.The installed 1ML RainVault systemis designed to conserve 21.1 ML ofstormwater runoff that will be usedfor irrigation.64Stockland Corporate Responsibility & Sustainability Report 30 June 2009
NABERS ratingsAVERAGENABERSENERGYRATING3.4 starsAVERAGENABERSWATERRATINGNABERS OFFICE ENERGY ANDWATER RATINGSNABERS is a performance-based ratingssystem that measures existing buildings’environmental performance during operation.We use NABERS to undertake energyand water ratings on our portfolio of officebuildings.We set a NABERS Energy office portfolioaverage target of 3.5 Stars for the 2008calendar year. We achieved a 3.4 Staraverage. A challenge for us has beenmaintaining the improvements in our portfolioaverage whilst increasing the size of theportfolio we are measuring. We originally setthis target for a small portfolio of buildings,which have since achieved a 3.6 StarNABERS Energy portfolio average.
