6 Why move? The market has operated from its current site since 1969 During that time the number of traders accessing the market has significantly increased, as the size of the businesses trading out of the market Work practices have changed Technology has changed Transport and refrigeration have changed Significant increase in volume of product moved and space required to manage increased volume Why Epping? 75% of fruit and vegetables come from the north of Melbourne Epping provides a wonderful opportunity to develop a built for purpose facility which will contribute to the market s continued success and viability The project fits well with the City of Whittlesea s vision to develop a high quality industrial and business development to service the areas growing population. 6

9 Project objectives To develop the precinct into one that provides for value adding wholesale fresh food, produce and flower trading, warehousing, packaging, logistics and distribution To develop a precinct that promotes and encourages best practice in sustainable design To facilitate a range of complementary uses which service, supply and support the markets operation To ensure that the operation, scale and character has minimal impact on the amenity of the surrounding area To develop a precinct that considers and manages the environmental, cultural and heritage values of the area To relocate the market into an innovative, safe and modern facility To maximise economic benefits to the State by ensuring that the wholesale market operations are efficient, competitive and accessible To ensure that the State s investment in the wholesale market provides value for money, is sustainable and is delivered within budget Sustainable Policy objectives for the Project To deliver the most sustainable wholesale fruit and vegetable market we can! Energy efficiency. Minimise potable water usage. Reduce waste to landfill. Maximising indoor environmental quality. Utilisation of sustainable materials and minimising embodied energy. 9

10 Sustainable Opportunities for the Project Large roof area - Rainwater collection and reuse - Solar energy capturing Adjacency to residential area and public transport - Promote car alternatives Low rise, high ceiling building - Passive ventilation, daylighting Night/ early morning operation - Reduced needs for cooling Large site area - Creation of new habitat within Design Standards BCA 2008 Green Star: 4 star industrial pilot for Fruit and vegetable and flower Market 5 star office V3 for Operator offices NABERS 4.5 star for Operator offices 10

The main Fruit and Vegetable market building is 53,000 m2 with the same area again in external canopies providing for an extensive number of under cover loading and unloading bays. And will house 124 refrigerated trading stores. There is approximately 330,000m2 of external pavements surrounding the main Fruit and Vegetable building. The project includes: 4300 tonnes of Structural Steel 12,000 m3 of Concrete 400 kms of electrical cabling 150,000 m2 of Façade cladding materials 330,000m2 of Asphalt pavements 70 kms of Line marking 24 12

14 Key ESD Considerations Minimising potable water usage, maximising rainwater capture and maximising stormwater bio-treatment ; Minimising energy use and reducing greenhouse gas emissions; Maximising natural ventilation through the NFM and F&V market buildings; Ensuring water supply to the developed wetlands area; Providing excellent indoor environmental quality; Specifying materials with low environmental impact; and Reducing construction waste and encouraging recycling of operational waste. F&V Building 4 Star Greenstar Industrial Pilot Tool Daylight through clerestory windows Natural Ventilation Solar Hot Water Rainwater Collection Emissions : Stormwater Refrigerant Selection 14

15 F&V Building and NFC Specific Elements - Daylight Daylight through clerestory windows NFC Similar Concept without mezzanine offices Orientation of windows and shading provisions important F&V Building and NFC Specific Elements Natural Ventilation The F&V market building and NFC building utilises stack ventilation, where high and low pressure zones are created by the buoyancy of warm air rising causing currents that bring cooler air in to replace the expelled air. 15

18 Rain Water Harvesting Partnership between DBI, City of Whittlesea and Federal Government through Water for the Future Initiative Hardstand run-off passes through wetlands Water from the market's 40 hectares of pavement areas will be drained into man-made wetlands in the south east of the market site, cleaned naturally and then pumped to the 4 local sports reserves. Once the rainwater harvesting system is fully operational it will reduce the reliance on Victoria's drinking water by 68 million litres each year 1.5 Million Litres of rainwater storage catching water from roof areas/ Rainwater treated and re-used for: Toilet Flushing Irrigation Washdown and hardstand cleaning operations 35 Central Cooling Central Cooling System offered as an alternative during RFT period. Ammonia Chillers with Glycol reticulation in lieu of individual Freon Condensers. Decrease roof plant and required access to roof. Acoustic benefits due to common location of cooling plant and heat rejection rather than individual plant on roof. Decreased energy consumption. Lifecycle benefits 36 18

19 Onsite Asphalt Batching and Use of RAP Onsite Batching Reduces Transport and Impact on road network. Use of recycled aggregate - 30% of aggregate replaced with recycled aggregate sourced from reclaimed asphalt due to milling and resurfacing. 37 Administration Building 5 Star Greenstar Currently Office V3 Designed to achieve 4.5 star NABERS rating Energy Emissions Materials Indoor Environment Quality 19
