Acid Sulfate Soils Overlay

[Tranquilo]

Hi Guys I'm just wondering is this a concern when buying in around the Logan area. It seem a lot of the area has this overlay.

So to all the Logan area investors did you buy with this acid sulfate overlay or you avoided like the plague lol

Thanks in advance

Acid sulphate soils are only an issue when you excavate. When you put in a DA for development and you need to excavate for footings or a slab, Council may require you to submit an acid sulphate report or management plan prepared by a consultant depending on the level of risk. It doesn't really affect an investment it mores affects a development site because it may only potentially be an obstacle when you develop the site.

Thanks my03.

Yes I did Google it a few weeks ago and its just like you said.

My wife works in technical for a concrete company and she said it would require a different mix or class slab for this type of area.

I was just wondering did other investors here or was it a concern for them.
