  • Sirius Planning Controls Letter Nboyd2
    Dr. Noni K. Boyd Heritage Consultant & Architectural Historian GPO Box 1334 Sydney 2001 Australia Mobile: 0412 737 921 ABN 71 376 540 977 12 February 2018 Submitted via the website Dear Sir or Madam, Re: Sirius building, 36-50 Cumberland Street, The Rocks Proposed new Planning Controls I write in regard to the call for public submissions on the proposed SEPP for the Sirius site at 36-50 Cumberland Street. I have a very detailed knowledge of this area having previously worked for SCRA/SHFA. My Master’s thesis undertaken at the School of Architecture at Sydney University involved a study of the development and conservation of Gloucester Street, The Rocks and more recently I have been involved in the preparation of Conservation Management Plans for 23 George Street North and some of the surviving 1840s townhouse in the area: 20-22 Lower Fort Street and on Millers Point proper. As a general comment the information contained within the suite of documents exhibited does not demonstrate a detailed knowledge of the actual place. Bunker’s Hill, upon which the Sirius building now sits, was once a separate residential area from The Rocks where substantial cottages, villas and townhouses were erected by wealthy merchants including the Campbell family. Lower Fort Street still contains vestiges of this housing stock. The scale of the buildings on Bunker’s Hill can be seen in Conrad Marten’s 1857 painting Campbell’s Wharf held in the National Gallery of Australia. Martens also painted views from Bunker’s Hill looking towards Government House and Circular Quay, as did other artists.

The main risks of this development on the marine environment are the thermal differential between the discharge and receiving waters, the impact of the use of the antifouling agent Mexel 432 ® and the risk of impingement and entrainment of marine organisms within the system. This assessment concluded that the installation and operation of the proposed system at the MCA in Circular Quay is unlikely to result in any discernible impacts on the water quality of the receiving environment. No threatened marine fauna will be affected by the proposed development as no threatened aquatic fauna are likely to occur in the vicinity of the proposed development. Disclaimer This report has been prepared on behalf of and for the exclusive use of the MCA and their project manager Root Projects Australia, and is subject to and issued in accordance with the agreement between the MCA and WorleyParsons. WorleyParsons accepts no liability or responsibility whatsoever for it in respect of any use of or reliance upon this report by any third party.
