# Applies to
# Relevant Victoria Planning Provisions
# Clause 56
# 56.08-1 Site management objectives (opens new window)
Standard C26
A subdivision application must describe how the site will be managed prior to and during the construction period and may set out requirements for managing:
- Chemical contamination.
# Other relevant clauses
# 13.07-1S Amenity, human health and safety - Land use compatibility (opens new window)
Objective
- To protect community amenity, human health and safety while facilitating appropriate commercial, industrial, infrastructure or other uses with potential adverse off-site impacts.
# 19.03-3S Integrated water management (opens new window)
Strategies include:
Ensure that development protects and improves the health of water bodies including creeks, rivers, wetlands, estuaries and bays by:
- Managing industrial and commercial toxicants in an appropriate way.
Minimise the potential impacts of water, sewerage and drainage assets on the environment.
# 19.03-5S Waste and resource recovery (opens new window)
Objective
To reduce waste and maximise resource recovery to reduce reliance on landfills and minimise environmental, amenity and public health impacts.
# Objective
To avoid the use of hazardous materials in subdivision works and support healthier, more sustainable built environments.
# Summary
# Better practice
Awarded where the subdivision materials specification has been checked against the Living Building Challenge (LBC) Redlist, and a statement is provided confirming no Redlist materials are specified. This is demonstrated via the Subdivision Design Response.
Typical items that may contain Redlist compounds include PVC and silicone rubber products, chrome-plated metals, and treated pine.
