Principallocated, as far as practical, underground orwithin an existing underground conduit orduct.(b) Overhead lines, antennas and ancillarytelecommunications facilities should, wherepractical, be co-located or attached to existingstructures such as buildings, public utilitystructures, poles, towers or other radiocommunications equipment to minimise theproliferation of telecommunication facilitiesand unnecessary clutter.(c) Towers may be extended for the purposesof co-location.(d) The extension of an existing tower mustbe considered as a practical co-locationsolution prior to building new towers.(e) If a facility is proposed not to be colocatedthe proponent must demonstrate thatco-location is not practicable.(f) If the development is for a co-locationpurpose, then any new telecommunicationsfacility must be designed, installed andoperated so that the resultant cumulativelevels of radio frequency emissions of the colocatedtelecommunications facilities arewithin the maximum human exposure levelsset out in the Radiation Protection Standard.Proposalwill be in existing conduits or in newunderground conduits wherever feasible orpossible.Co-location on other communications towershas been considered. No other towers weredeemed appropriate or in a location toprovide sufficient network coverage, as sucha new monopole is proposed.The proposal does not involve the use of anexisting tower. The extension of existingtowers in the area was considered anddeemed unsuitable.The proposal does not involve the use of anexisting tower, however the extension ofexisting towers in the area was consideredand deemed unsuitable.There are no suitable communicationstowers in the target coverage area that wouldsatisfy the coverage objectives as well as thenetwork requirements of the DTRS project.Co-location is not proposed.Principle 3: Health standards for exposure to radio emissions will be met.Page 60 of 67
Principal(a) A telecommunications facility must bedesigned, installed and operated so that themaximum human exposure levels toradiofrequency emissions comply withRadiation Protection Standard.(b) An EME Environmental Report shall beproduced by the proponent of developmentto which the Mobile Phone Network Codeapplies in terms of design, siting of facilitiesand notifications.The Report is to be in the format required bythe Australian Radiation Protection NuclearSafety Agency (ARPANSA). It is to show thepredicted levels of electromagnetic energysurrounding the development comply withthe safety limits imposed by the AustralianCommunications and Media Authority andthe Electromagnetic Radiation Standard, anddemonstrate compliance with the MobilePhone Networks Code.ProposalThe proposed facility will comply with theARPANSA standard in relation to humanexposure to EME. An EME report has beencompleted and is found at Appendix 4.This report demonstrates compliance with theARPANSA standard for the operation of aradio communications facility in Australia.The proposal is not for a mobile phonenetwork and is not subject to the Code for theDevelopment of Mobile Phone NetworkInfrastructure commonly known as the ACIFCode.An EME report has been completed and isfound at Appendix 4.Principle 4: Minimise disturbance and risk, and maximise compliancePrincipal(a) The siting and height of anytelecommunications facility must comply with anyrelevant site and height requirements specifiedby the Civil Aviation Regulations 1988 and theAirports (Protection of Airspace) Regulations1996 of the Commonwealth. It must not penetrateany obstacle limitation surface shown on anyrelevant Obstacle Limitation Surface Plan thathas been prepared by the operator of anaerodrome or airport operating within 30kilometres of the proposed development andProposalThe provisions of the Civil Aviation Regulations1988 and the Airports (Protection of Airspace)Regulations 1996 were considered during thedesign and siting process. There is no need forthe installation of a warning light or aircraftnavigation light, as the proposal does notpenetrate the Obstacle Limitation Surface.Page 61 of 67
