Taylor report has also avoided commenting on how controls should be enhanced
and where existing controls might become less effective under the new operation. In terms
of equipment that AFT have to mitigate effects of odour and dust, these are all based on
having birds contained within a negative pressure maintained enclosed space.

Filter backwash is discharged via a large pond. The outlet from the pond is an inverted pipe located at the
opposite end of the pond from the inlet. The discharge from the pond emerges from a pipe to fall over a
small waterfall. At the base of the waterfall the discharged water runs down a natural cobbled channel
beneath native riparian vegetation for approximately 10 metres
