USING WSUD TO RESOLVE COMPETING OBJECTIVES: A CASE STUDY OF A SUSTAINABLE INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT

Kinross Business and Industrial Park is a 30Ha brownfield industrial development located in the Heatherbrae industrial area on the eastern edge of Raymond Terrace, New South Wales (Figure 1). The development overlies the Tomago sand beds which are a drinking water aquifer under the management of Hunter Water. Soils on site are all sands with the aquifer generally at 2m below the soil surface. The pre-development hydrological regime was one of infiltration with surface flows predicted to occur once in tens years. Any surface flows drain over very flat land to Windeyers Creek, a tributary of the Hunter River. Development of the site beyond the existing Weathertex factory commenced in 2006.
