It relates to the proposed development of a light industrial warehouse facility to operate as a customer fulfilment centre in Horsley Drive Business Hub. The Horsley Drive Business Park Stages 1 and 2 were approved by SSD 5169 and SSD 7664 on 8 January 2013 and 9 November 2019 respectively. The Western Sydney Parklands are identified as a State Significant Site in Schedule 2 of State Environmental Planning Policy (State and Regional Development) 2011. This DA is subsequent to State Significant Development (SSD) Concept Approval 7664. The Development Consent for SSD 7664 issued by the NSW Department of Planning, Industry and Environment does not delegate the assessment and determination of future detailed DAs to another consent authority. Therefore, the proposed development is SSD pursuant to section 4.37 of the EP&A Act. A request for the issue of Secretary’s Environmental Assessment Requirements (SEARs) was sought on 19 November 2019. Accordingly, the SEARs were issued on 18 December 2019. This submission is in accordance with the Department’s guidelines for SSD applications lodged under Part 4 of the EP&A Act, and addresses the issues raised in the SEARs. Overview of the Project The Development Application (DA) seeks approval for the detailed development and construction of a light industrial warehouse facility to operate as a customer fulfilment centre (Building 1) at the Horsley Drive Business Hub Stage 2. It includes a warehouse facility, ancillary office, staff parking space, and loading areas. The Site The Horsley Drive Business Park Stage 2 has frontages to Cowpasture Road to the east and Trivet Street to the north-east. It is immediately bound by the Wetherill Park Industrial Precinct to the east, the Upper Canal system to the west, the Horsley Drive Business Park Stage 1 to the south and Prospect Reservoir and Prospect Nature Reserve to the north. Planning Context Section 6 of the EIS considers all applicable legislation in detail. The State Environmental Planning Policy (Western Sydney Parklands) 2009 (WSP SEPP) sets out what development is permissible and the matters for consideration for development located within the Parklands. The proposal is consistent with the SEPP provisions and the approved Concept Plan (SSD 7664) as modified which establishes the uses and built form of the site Environmental Impacts and Mitigation Measures This EIS provides an assessment of the environmental impacts of the project in accordance with the SEARs and sets out the undertakings made by Charter Hall to manage and minimise potential impacts arising from the development. The key issues related to appropriate environmental management practices during the physical construction and operation of the facility have been assessed and addressed through the preliminary Environmentally Sustainability Development located at Appendix Q.
