The event will be a training session for our search and rescue dogs, which are in various stages of training. No temporary structures are required. We are expecting no more than 12 people to attend from our organisation, all of which are financial members and are covered by our public liability and volunteer accident insurance.

The HVP area requested to be used for the training is number 432 of the attached map.

Members will be advised that there are no toilet facilities on site and will need to go offsite to Buxton for these purposes.

The training involves placing helpers (“victims”) out and sending canine and handler teams to search for them. We will be using bushland and trails during the course of training.

See Safe Working Method Statement for detailed analysis of risks and mitigation measures.
