Emissions ​

PO3

Development does not significantly increase air turbulence, reduce visibility or cause an obstruction or hazard to the safe movement of aircraft within an airport's Obstacle Limitation Surface (OLS) (Inner and Outer), Transitional Surface or Approach and Departure Limitation Surface as identified on Airport Environs Overlay Map through the emission of particulates, gasses or other materials.

AO3

1. gaseous plumes with a velocity exceeding 4.3m per second
2. smoke, dust, ash or steam that will penetrate the Obstacle Limitation Surface (OLS) (Inner and Outer), Transitional Surface or Approach and Departure Limitation Surface as identified on Airport Environs Overlay Map, or
3. emissions with depleted oxygen content.

PO4

Development does not cause wildlife to create an obstruction or hazard to the safe movement of aircraft within an airport's operational airspace through the attracting of a significant number of wildlife, in particular birds and bats.

AO4.1

AO4.2

Development located within 3km of the airport's runway as identified on Airport environs overlay map, involving a use listed in column 2 of Table 8.2.2.3.2 include measures to reduce the potential to attract birds and bats, including covering potential food sources and bird scarers or netting (rural activities).

AO4.3

Development located between 3km and 8km of the airport's runway as identified on Airport Environs Overlay Map, involving a use in either column 1 or column 2 of Table 8.2.2.3.2 includes measures to reduce the potential to attract birds and bats, including covering potential food sources and bird scarers or netting (rural activities).

AO4.4

Development located between 8km and 13km of the airport's runway as identified on Airport Environs Overlay Map involving a use in either column 1 or column 2 of Table 8.2.2.3.2 does not increase the potential to attract birds and bats.

PO5

Landscaping and drainage works (including artificial water bodies) for development within the Transitional Surface as identified on Airport Environs Overlay Map are designed and located to avoid attracting birds and bats (e.g. avoidance of fruiting and/ or flowering plant species).

Aviation facilities ​

PO6

Development does not interfere with the function of aviation facilities or the approach and departure surfaces.

AO6.1

Development located within the building restricted area for an aviation facility, an approach surface or a departure surface does not create:

1. permanent or temporary physical obstructions in the line of sight between antennas
2. permanent or temporary physical intrusion through an approach surface or departure surface
3. an electrical or electromagnetic field that will interfere with signals transmitted by:
   1. the aviation facility, or
   2. an air service related device within the approach surface or departure surface
4. reflective surfaces that could deflect or interfere with signals transmitted by:
   1. the aviation facility, or
   2. an air service related device within the approach surface or departure surface.

OR

AO6.2

Development located within the building restricted area for an aviation facility, an approach surface or a departure surface is designed and constructed to mitigate the adverse impacts on the function of the aviation facility, the approach surface or the departure surface.

Airport public safety areas ​

PO7

Development within the public safety areas located at the end of the airport runway avoids:

1. a significant increase in the number of people living, working or congregating in those areas, and
2. the use or storage of hazardous materials.

AO7

Development within the public safety areas, as identified on the Airport Environs Overlay Map, does not involve:

1. residential or sensitive uses

Noise

PO8
