S4.2.9 Environmental Elements

Development in Saline Areas

Areas of salinity risk exist within the Precinct which require specific management and construction standards to ensure buildings and structures are protected from salinity damage. The areas of salinity risk including those that contain soils with aggressivity to concrete and steel are identified in Figures S4-22 to S4-39. Specific construction standards and procedures need to be implemented to address potential aggressivity impacts.

  1. Development in areas of salinity risk must be consistent with Camden Council’s Policy No. 1.15 – Building in Salinity Prone Environments.
