Executive Summary Lacour Energy is a renewable energy development company which is developing wind and solar farm sites across Australia. Clarke Creek Energy Pty Ltd, (the Applicant) is a special purpose company formed by Lacour Energy to develop the Clarke Creek Wind and Solar Farm project. The Clarke Creek Wind and Solar Farm project is a wind, solar and energy storage project located approximately 150 km north west of Rockhampton and 150km south of Mackay. Locating wind farm, solar farm and energy storage together has the benefit of sharing key infrastructure, such as on site substations, and increasing their utilisation reducing capital costs; this has the effect of reducing the cost of electricity and smoothing the output from the site throughout the day. The Project area is situated over existing agricultural lots which are predominantly used for grazing and will be located in the Isaac Regional Council Local Government Area in the vicinity of Clarke Creek. This desktop surface water assessment has application been prepared for the solar farm and ancillary infrastructure (the Project) only, and should be considered a stand-alone project for the purpose of the application. Surface water environmental values (EVs) associated with the Project site and immediate surrounds include: aquatic ecosystems cultural and spiritual values drinking water farm supply human consumption industrial use irrigation primary recreation secondary recreation stock watering visual appreciation. Potential impacts of stormwater discharge from the Project site on surface water quality and quantity arise from a range of activities associated with the construction, operation and decommissioning phases. During construction and decommissioning, impacts may potentially arise from earthworks and chemical storage. During operations, projected peak stormwater runoff is expected to slightly increase however increases were estimated to be less than 1% for all locations and storm events assessed. The potential impact on the receiving watercourses of Clarke, Mundi, Stockyard and Bora Creeks resulting from Project stormwater discharge is expected to be minimal considering that the area potentially to be covered in panels (approximately 416 ha of the 1,385 ha solar farm area (assuming 30% panel coverage)) only represents approximately 1.2% of the combined modelled catchment areas of Clarke, Mundi, Stockyard and Bora Creeks.

1.0 Introduction

1.1 Project Overview Lacour Energy, is a renewable energy development company which is developing wind and solar farm sites across Australia. Clarke Creek Energy Pty Ltd, (the Applicant) is a special purpose company formed by Lacour Energy to develop the Clarke Creek Wind and Solar Farm project. The Clarke Creek Wind and Solar Farm project, is a wind, solar and energy storage project located approximately 150 km north west of Rockhampton and 150km south of Mackay. Locating wind farm, solar farm and energy storage together has the benefit of sharing key infrastructure, such as on site substations, and increasing their utilisation reducing capital costs; this has the effect of reducing the cost of electricity and smoothing the output from the site throughout the day. The approval for a wind farm component of the Clarke Creek Wind and Solar Farm project will be undertaken by Department of Infrastructure, Local Government and Planning (State Assessment and Referral Agency) and does not form part of this Development Application. This application is for the solar farm and ancillary infrastructure (the Project) only, and should be considered a stand-alone project for the purpose of the application. The application for the ultimate construction of the solar farm is not dependent on the approval of the wind farm. However it is envisaged that should the wind farm component be approved, then high capital cost infrastructure such as energy storage and substation, offices and workshops can be shared to reduce costs and provide lower cost energy production. The Project area is situated over existing agricultural lots which are predominantly used for grazing. This large capex Project will be located in the Isaac Regional Council Local Government Area in the vicinity of Clarke Creek. The Project is expected to generate 150 jobs during peak construction and 5 full time positions when operational. The final design of the solar farm, energy storage and ancillary infrastructure will be dependent on many factors, such as market conditions, size of the wind farm, and cost of solar and energy storage equipment. The power output of the solar and energy storage capacity may be scaled up or down to reflect this changing environment at the time of final investment decision at the end of the feasibility process. This application defines the footprint within which this Project may be located.

2.0 Relevant Legislation

2.1 State 2.1.1 Environmental Protection Act 1994 (Qld) The Environmental Protection Act 1994 (EP Act) aims to: [Protect] Queensland’s environment while allowing for development that improves the total quality of life, both now and in the future, in a way that maintains the ecological processes on which life depends (ecologically sustainable development). The primary instrument by which surface water management is achieved under the EP Act is the Environmental Protection (Water) Policy 2009 (EPP Water; refer to Section 2.1.1.1). The EP Act is administered by DEHP. The following regulations and policies are also relevant under the EP Act: Environmental Protection (Water) Policy 2009. Environmental Protection Regulation 2008. 2.1.1.1 Environmental Protection (Water) Policy 2009 The Environmental Protection (Water) Policy 2009 (EPP Water) defines the environmental values (EVs) to be enhanced or protected, and outlines the indicators and water quality guidelines to be utilised for protecting those values. Water quality objectives (WQOs) for specific catchments are listed within Schedule 1. The Project site is located in the Fitzroy Basin and detailed EVs and WQOs for the Isaac River Basin are outlined by DEHP in the Isaac River Sub-basin Environmental Values and Water Quality Objectives report. Relevant EVs and WQOs are presented in Sections 3.3 and 3.4. 2.1.2 Water Act 2000 The Water Act 2000 (Water Act) provides a framework to deliver sustainable water planning, allocation management and supply processes to provide for the improved security of water resources in Queensland. The Water Act and its instruments are administered by DNRM. Water Plans (WPs) and Resource Operations Plans (ROPs) are governed by the Water Act. WPs establish a framework for sharing water between human consumptive needs and environmental values. ROPs are developed in parallel with WPs and provide a framework by which objectives from the WPs are implemented, including water allocations and administrative directions. 2.1.2.1 Water Resource (Fitzroy Basin) Plan 2011 The Project site is located within the Fitzroy Basin. Watercourses traversing the Project site are therefore subject to the provisions of the Water (Fitzroy Basin) Plan (WP) (2011). The WP provides a ‘framework for sustainably managing water and the taking of water’, and regulates interference with or taking of overland flow water. 2.1.2.2 Fitzroy Basin Resource Operations Plan (2015) The Project site is located within the Nogoa Mackenzie water management area zone as defined in the Fitzroy Basin Resource Operations Plan (ROP) (2015). The ROP implements the provisions of the Water (Fitzroy Basin) Plan (2011). It includes an outline of how supplemented and un-supplemented water management schemes within the Fitzroy Basin will be supplemented, and how water allocations may be traded and/or altered. Activities within the Nogoa Mackenzie water management area zone need to be managed in a way that supports both the human use and ecological requirements of the Mackenzie River system. 2.1.2.3 Water Regulation 2016 The Water Regulation 2016 provides guidance for watercourse identification, and has provisions for the use of water resources (such as water sharing and water licensing rules, and the establishment of water authorities and supply schemes). Multiple watercourses traverse the Project site, however there are no Project requirements to conduct any works that might control the flow of water into either the

Isaac/Mackenzie any of their tributaries. Consequently the Project will not be assessable under the Water Regulation 2016. 2.1.3 Nature Conservation Act 1992 The objective of the Nature Conservation Act 1992 is to conserve nature while allowing for human use values, such as those described in Section 3.3 of the Act. The involvement of indigenous people in the management of protected areas in which they have an interest under Aboriginal tradition of Island custom. The use and enjoyment of protected areas by the community. The social, cultural and commercial use of protected areas in a way consistent with the natural and cultural and other values of the areas. As a component of the natural landscape, surface waters are considered to be inherently linked with these values. Areas that are usually protected by this Act may include for example, national parks, dedicated conservation areas, wilderness areas, or forest reserves. There are several areas identified within close proximity to the Project site. 2.1.4 Planning Act 2016 The Planning Act 2016 (Planning Act) is the principal item of legislation regulating both development and planning in Queensland. The Planning Act supersedes the Sustainable Planning Act 2009 previously used. Under this Act, Planning Instruments (PI) are used as a common scheme for public authorities to adhere to when assessing development applications. The Broadsound Shire Council Planning Scheme 2005 under which stormwater on the Project site will be managed (as per Section 2.2.1 below) is based on the over-arching principles and requirements outlined in the Planning Act. 2.1.5 Regional Planning Interests Act 2014 The Regional Planning Interests Act 2014 (RPI Act) identifies and protects areas of Queensland that are of regional interest. In doing this, the RPI Act seeks to manage the impact and support coexistence of resource activities and other regulated activities in areas of regional interest. The proposed development will not involve any regulated activities as listed under Section 11 of the RPI Act and therefore does not apply to the proposed development.

2.2 Local The Project site is situated within the jurisdiction of the Isaac Regional Council Local Government Area. In 2008, the shires of Broadsound, Belyando and Nebo amalgamated to form the Isaac Regional Council. Currently the Isaac Region Planning Scheme (IRPS) is being drafted and is expected to be completed by 2018; at which stage it will replace the three current planning schemes that are in operation. The current local planning instrument which regulates the management of stormwater for the Project site is therefore the Broadsound Shire Council Planning Scheme 2005 which is discussed in more detail in Section 2.2.1 below. 2.2.1 Broadsound Shire Council Planning Scheme 2005 This planning scheme was developed under the Integrated Planning Act 1997 (Qld) which was repealed by the Planning Act 2016. The planning scheme provides a strategic framework for planning development on a regional scale and is the primary instrument governing surface water resources (specifically stormwater) within the Broadsound Shire region. Strategic Direction Desired environmental outcomes are based on principles of ecological sustainability established by the Integrated Planning Act1997 and are the basis for the measures of the Planning Scheme. Part 2 (desired environmental outcomes) for the Broadsound local government) states that:

03-Oct-2017 Prepared for – Clarke Creek Energy Pty Ltd – ABN: 34 614 169 096 AECOM Clarke Creek Solar Farm 6 Surface Water Assessment

In Broadsound Shire, ecological systems (including the Isaac River, its tributaries and floodplain) and the natural systems, items and places of cultural heritage significance are protected and enhanced by development such that: Adverse effects on the qualities and life supporting functions of Broadsound’s natural systems are minimised. Air and water quality, the soil, biological diversity and ecosystems are protected and enhanced. The effects of development on the multiple attributes of the nearby Great Barrier Reef World Heritage In addition to these over-arching strategies, the Planning Scheme also lists specific outcomes and acceptable solutions which need to be met by proposed developments. Those relating specifically to stormwater management are listed in Table 1. Information regarding how the Project will comply with the accepted solutions is included in Section 5.3 of this report.

3.0 Surface Water Environment

3.1 Existing Site Drainage The Study Area is located within two major catchment basins; the Fitzroy and Styx (refer to Figure 2). From the figure it can be seen that the Project site is located to the west of the Study Area and is therefore solely within the Fitzroy Basin. Named watercourses traversing the Project site are Clarke Creek, Mundi Creek, Stockyard Creek and Bora Creek which are all tributaries of the Isaac River. The Isaac River, a major tributary of the Fitzroy River, covers an area of approximately 22,365 km2 and represents approximately 15.7% of the Fitzroy Basin. The Study Area and surrounding area consists predominately of agricultural land and is primarily used for grazing. Ground slope is typically to the south-west with a maximum elevation of approximately 600 m AHD in the north-eastern corner and a minimum elevation of 105 m AHD in the south-west. The Project site, comprising of relatively flat terrain, adjoins lease land to the east, freehold to the north and south and is bordered by the State-Controlled Marlborough-Sarina Road to the west. The Project site consists of four individual areas as illustrated in Figure 1. For the purpose of this assessment and based on their location in respect to key surface water catchments they are herein referred to as: Northern Solar Farm Project Sites (Northern Solar Farms) which are located in the Clarke Creek catchment. Southern Solar Farm Project Sites (Southern Solar Farms) which are located in the Mundi Creek, Stockyard Creek and Bora Creek catchments. Stormwater drainage from the site has been determined on the basis of available topographic data (SRTM 1 second (approximately 30 m grid)) which was obtained from Geoscience Australia. CatchmentSIM terrain analysis software has been used to identify potential stormwater drainage paths and to delineate catchments relevant to the Northern and Southern Sites. Referring to Figure 3: Stormwater drainage will discharge from the Project site via four distinct catchments which all discharge into the Isaac River to the south west: - For the Northern Solar Farms, drainage is predominantly in a south westerly direction, entering a number of minor unnamed tributaries of Clarke Creek which flow for approximately 6 km in a south-westerly direction before entering Clarke Creek. - For the Southern Solar Farms: The northern site will predominantly drain in an easterly direction before entering an unnamed tributary of Stockyard Creek and flow for approximately 4 km in a south- westerly direction before entering Stockyard Creek. A small portion will also drain north east into Mundi Creek which flows in a south westerly direction for approximately 8 km before entering the Isaac River. Stormwater drainage originating from the southern site will flow in either a north westerly or south easterly direction into either Stockyard Creek or Bora Creek respectively. Multiple small farm dams are noted to be located either within the Project site or immediately downstream on drainage lines that traverse the Project site. Both of the southern sites are also noted to contain significant numbers of gilgai (melon holes).
