maintained as part of the forest for wood
production is appropriately drained and adopts
the following measures:
(a) establish and maintain a stable surface;
(b) drain the track or road with crossfall drainage
(preferably with a slope greater than four
percent) or by shaping the track or road to a
crown so that water drains to both of its
sides;
(c) establish and maintain drainage structure to
convey water away from the track or road
formation (for example, crossdrains, mitre
drains, turnouts and diversion drains or relief
culverts).
AO2.3
Drainage water from tracks and roads
established and maintained as part of the forest
for wood production is directed away from
exposed soils, unstable areas, and towards
undisturbed ground and areas with stable
surfaces.

Reconfiguring a lot (subdividing one lot into two lots) and associated
operational work code
The purpose of the reconfiguring a lot (subdividing one lot into two lots) and associated
operational work code is for assessing requests for compliance assessment for development for
reconfiguring a lot that requires compliance assessment as prescribed in Part 5–Tables of
assessment, section 5.4 under Table 5.4.2–Prescribed level of assessment: reconfiguring a lot.
Note––Development subject to compliance assessment must be able to achieve compliance with the compliance outcomes for
a compliance permit to be issued.
Note––If compliance with the code is not possible, the development cannot be considered for compliance assessment and a
development application for assessable development must be made to the local government as outlined in Schedule 18 of the
Regulation.
Editor's note––For compliance assessment to apply, it is a requirement of Schedule 18(1)(b) of the Sustainable Planning Act
2009 that the size of a lot created is at least the minimum lot size for the zone stated in the planning scheme, a temporary local
planning instrument , a master plan or a preliminary approval to which section 242 of the Act applies. For minimum lot sizes for
each zone and precinct see Table 9.4.5.3.2.
