Parameter General


  


Mitigation measures embedded into the project design


all loads entering and leaving site would be covered; runoff of mud and water would be prevented;


all non-road mobile machinery would use ultra-low sulphur diesel where available;


 water would be used as a dust suppressant as appropriate;   


temporarily cover or re-vegetate earthworks if possible; skips would be covered and drop heights minimised;


cutting equipment would have water suppression or suitable local exhaust ventilation systems;


 


dust-generating activities would be minimised; and stockpiles would be kept in place for the shortest possible time.


Construction The methods for controlling air quality impacts would be discussed and agreed with the relevant local authorities and pertinent stakeholders through the development


of an Air Quality Management Plan (AQMP).


Agreement on the scope of an AQMP (as part of the Code of Construction Practice) would be reached to ensure that the potential for adverse environmental effects on local receptors is reduced to an absolute minimum.


The AQMP would include measures for controlling dust and general pollution from construction operations, and include details of any monitoring scheme, if appropriate. Controls would be applied throughout the construction period to ensure that emissions are mitigated.


Construction Agreed methods would be formalised within a Code of Construction Practice, outlining the level of mitigation that would be employed based on the potential risk


at any given stage and with regard to receptor sensitivity.


Construction Public relations will be co-ordinated on site by a designated member of the constructionmanagement team. A proactive public relations campaign will


maintained, keeping local residents informed of the type and timing of works involved, paying particular attention to potential evening and night time works and activities whichmay occur in close proximity to receptors. A combination of communication mechanisms such as posters and parish meetings will be employed to keep local residents informed.


Construction Any dust complaints would be monitored and appropriate mitigation measures implemented, where appropriate.
