of the KAVHA site without

Services infrastructure, particularly electricity, will be assessed and upgraded as necessary,
consistent with conservation requirements, user needs and workplace health and _ safety
considerations.

New services will be carefully designed to avoid disturbing or damaging significant fabric and will
be, where possible, installed in areas of reconstructed or new fabric, or in a manner which
minimises damage to original fabric.

Original design features such as roof vents and fanlights will be utilised to improve the internal
environment of significant buildings, in preference to changes to original fabric or configurations, or
the introduction of new services.

Air-conditioning and other modern services will not be installed in areas of high significance or
where they would be intrusive or impact on significant fabric.

8.6.6 Commercial Development
No new large-scale commercial development will be permitted within the KAVHA site.

Small-scale commercial development and activities associated with a compatible use,
interpretation, or visitor orientation and services may be considered, subject to planning approval.

Small-scale commercial activities essential to re-establishing or supporting compatible or traditional
uses, including agriculture, will be encouraged.

The re-introduction of cultural traditions and traditional uses and activities to the KAVHA site will be
encouraged and may comprise commercial activities.

8.6.7 Approval Processes

Heritage values will be protected by coordinated planning measures, regulations and heritage
impact assessment processes.

Government and private proponents will be required to make applications and referrals in
accordance with both Australian and Norfolk Island legislation, including assessing heritage impact.

Proposals which may have a significant impact will be subject to referral under the EPBC Act.

Approval will be required under Norfolk Island statutes for change of use, development and
construction works.

Any activity which is subject to an EPBC referral or requires planning and development applications
will be assessed for compliance with this HMP.

Government agencies involved in planning approvals will cooperate to achieve integrated
processes and consistent outcomes.

Guidelines which identify compatible uses and potential locations for new development within the
KAVHA site will be prepared and made readily available.

Information about the KAVHA site's heritage significance and archaeological potential will be
incorporated into the Norfolk Island land information system.

Heritage assessment tools which have been developed for the KAVHA site (such as historic plan
overlays and databases/inventories) will be made available for use by applicants and in the
planning assessment process.
