topography or the design of buildings will mean this is not able to be achieved. Buildings or areas of heritage significance or those that present too many obstacles to access may be able to be appreciated without entering the space. In other instances interpretative solutions such as models or diagrams could be used to interpret spaces that are inaccessible to the public.

Noise
Noise emissions must comply with the relevant NSW Environment Protection Authority standards and the guidelines contained in the Land Use Planning Noise Survey prepared for the Harbour Trust by Dick Benbow & Associates Pty Ltd. Certain events and activities, such as those identified in this survey, will require further noise assessment and management. Management techniques could include a range of options such as time restrictions, application of engineered controls or the preparation of a more detailed Noise Management Plan for specific events or activities.

Water Sensitive Urban Design
The principles of Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) are to be incorporated into the redevelopment of the maritime precinct in order to achieve water quality, water conservation and ecological objectives. Effective integration of these objectives will require the application of concepts on an island wide basis. The key concepts to be applied are:
  * Source controls – removal or mitigation of the pollutant source, and on-site rainwater use;
  * Conveyance controls – applied during the conveyance of stormwater to the harbour; and
  * Discharge controls – applied at the point where water leaves the site or island.

Remediation and Management Strategy
The overriding policy for the Harbour Trust for the management of contamination is to ensure that public health and the environment are protected with the application of consistent and sound environmental management practices. The remediation and management strategy proposed for the island is based on this policy, the Harbour Trust's ESD commitment and the outcomes and requirements of the contaminated land audit. (Refer to Policy 19).
Significant volumes of contaminated materials were used as fill over the apron areas of the Island. Contamination of other areas of the island has also resulted from other 'laydown' mechanisms discussed earlier in this plan. Extensive environmental assessment has shown that some soils in all precincts across the Island are were contaminated at levels that exceeded one or more of the criteria that would be applicable to the proposed land use outcomes. As discussed earlier in this Plan, many of the known contaminants have now been safely removed or capped. However, remaining contaminants in solid media (soils, sediments and wastes) are also a source of contamination to ground and surface waters, and may provide an offsite environmental impact.

Capping Strategy for Filled Areas
The Harbour Trust considers that a capping strategy, supplemented
