The proposal is for a canal/urban residential estate development proposal on Cockbum Sound Location 16, south of the Mandurah bypass road and immediately east of the bypass bridge.

This is the same site as was proposed by John Holland Pty Ltd for the Waterside Mandurah Stage 2 Canal Estate, assessed by the Authority in 1982 and found to be environmentally acceptable subject to a number of recommendations, but never commenced.

Following release of the EPA's report and recommendations, this proposal was withdrawn on 11 June 1993 and an amended proposal referred (see Assessment no. 808).
