The Shire of Harvey proposes to amend District Planning Scheme No. 1 by rezoning Lot 5 Old Coast Road, Leschenault (Pt Loc 23, Plan 7938) from "Tourist" zone and "Recreation" reserve to "Residential Development" zone, "Tourist" zone and "Recreation and Conservation" reserve and "Modified Water Body". The land the subject of this scheme amendment comprises an area bounded by the Collie River, the Old Coast Road and the Leschenault Inlet. The land essentially forms the Point Douro peninsula on the north-eastern side of the Collie River Delta.

This assessment is of a scheme remitted by the Minister for the Environment for the EPA to assess management plans for acid sulphate soils more fully and to review conditions relating to flood regimes (previous assessment no. 1156).
