REC324-4303 | 39 - Disaster Risk Management | Risk-based approach to calculating flood planning: That, to take account of greater knowledge of climate change, Government reinforce its adoption of a risk-based approach to calculating the flood planning level for planning purposes and, through the NSWRA, immediately start a process of revising all flood planning level calculations in the state’s high-risk catchments. Flood planning level re-determinations for all high-risk catchments should be completed within 3 years. These revised flood planning levels will need to be factored into all development applications (in-progress and new) in those high-risk catchments. The risk profile of high-risk catchments should be revisited at appropriate time intervals to check that levels are current. A review should take place if there has been a significant trigger event (i.e. changed rainfall, development) or at least every 5 years. As well as reviewing the flood planning level, this 5-yearly review should include reviewing any floodplain lease conditions and adjusting them as necessary in the light of better knowledge of climate change impacts. In working out a tolerable, risk-based flood planning level, consideration should be given to the PMF, 1% AEP, 0.02% AEP, existing development, approved but not yet constructed developments, and existing and approved but not yet constructed evacuation routes. |
REC324-4305 | 39 - Disaster Risk Management | Cost benefit framework:That, to enable a more systematic prioritisation of investment options in risk mitigation before, during and immediately following a natural disaster event, Government adopt and utilise a Disaster Cost Benefit Framework.

REC296-1355 | 10 - Infrastructure | Replacement of all original pipes and hoses not yet done. |
REC296-1360 | 10 - Infrastructure | Carry out regular load bank testing on the generator with a load bank large enough to fully load the generator to 110% which will clean out the engine and also identify whether the generator is capable of providing full load for a sustained length of time. |
REC296-1349 | 10 - Infrastructure | Conduct an assessment of the current essential loads and determine if there are loads that should not be on essential power. |
REC296-1354 | 10 - Infrastructure | Monthly and annual maintenance servicing needs to be scheduled for the generator to DPTI or CHSA schedule requirements. |
REC296-1359 | 10 - Infrastructure | Renegotiate the maintenance contract at the end of the current contract and have DPTI through AGFMA take on the maintenance contract. |
REC296-1353 | 10 - Infrastructure | Regular annual testing at 100% on a load bank needs to be scheduled into a maintenance schedule. |
REC296-1358 | 10 - Infrastructure | If the existing generator is capable of providing the current essential power requirements then the generator needs a major inspection and overhaul all items that may need to be replaced due to age and condition. This includes checking compression, oil pressure, coolant pumping and all other critical components and may actually require providing a temporary generator while the Hospital generator receives a major inspection and possible re build. A ball park figure to do this would be $50,000.00 plus cranage and transport to Detroit workshop probably another $10,000.00 then a temporary generator would need to be hired and installed which could run into $10’s of thousands of dollars depending on how long the engine was out of service. For the money that would be spent checking and rebuilding the existing engine it would be recommended to replace the generator with a new generator. |
REC296-1363 | 10 - Infrastructure | Due to the age of the generator, reliability and reparability risk due to age and the apparent under capacity of the generator it is recommend to replace the generator with a new generator and associated control system designed for the current load requirements and allowance for some future expansion. |
REC296-1352 | 10 - Infrastructure | A monthly testing regime needs to be developed that will allow the generator to be tested at full essential load capacity and to ensure that 4 hour monthly testing can be done every month. |
REC296-1357 | 10 - Infrastructure | Monthly test results need to be accurately recorded. |
REC296-1362 | 10 - Infrastructure | Carry out a detailed audit of the current Hospital essential loads to determine the current load requirements of the Hospital. |
REC296-1351 | 10 - Infrastructure | From the above assessment determine the existing generator load requirements and provide a new generator to meet those loads. |
REC296-1356 | 10 - Infrastructure | Accurate records need to be provided as to what is done for each service. |
REC296-1361 | 10 - Infrastructure | Prepare and carry out a testing regime and testing strategy and ensure testing of the generator is done every month for 4 hours over that month and under full Hospital load with test result recorded every 15 minutes. |

REC284-1374 | 10 - Infrastructure | Provide walls around critical electrical infrastructure within the main plant area to provide security and protection from catastrophic water system failures. |
REC284-1368 | 10 - Infrastructure | Improvements to installation to be implemented as follows: - Lighting within the generator enclosure and immediately adjacent to be emergency battery-backed type. - Improvements to the spatial layout within the main generator enclosure should be investigated, including allowance for the control panel door to open 180o (only 90o currently); moving the fuel pumps to a more accessible location, and ensuring clear access to the day tank for manual filling if required. - Improvements to communications facilities between critical areas, including fixed phone line connections between the main control room, main generator control panel in the P (energy) Building, and the generator enclosure, and allowing link to offsite specialist advice. - Where generator maintenance requires operations outdoors (not applicable to main generator, but applicable to others), a shelter over the relevant area should be provided to allow safe work during wet or hot weather. - Written emergency procedures to be prepared covering credible failure scenarios with step by step checklists and recommended actions. |
REC284-1373 | 10 - Infrastructure | Review generator installations details as noted in report and implement physical improvements where possible. |
