Attachment 5 - Traffic Impact Assessment Final PTT · 132005.638.06

The location of the CCA is further from outdoor Reviva operations in the Masterplan than the current
operation to mitigate impacts from dust on Reviva outdoor operations, with the Reviva building, concrete
barrier wall and 20mm crushed stockpile positioned between the Reviva outdoor area and concrete crushing
location. It is recommended that the NSC operations team monitor the impacts of dust from crushing and
where required implement additional controls to manage this risk. Risk management controls could include
increased dust suppression during crushing via watercart, wetting of crushed concrete prior to movement,
crushing during non-peak transfer station hours, scheduling of crushing when wind conditions are forecast to
be low, crushing concrete in the morning, outside of opening hours or on public holidays, development of an
operating envelope to identify conditions where crushing can be undertaken, and maintaining the current
control of visual observation of dust and ceasing crushing where dust levels are significant.

3.3          Steel stockpile and sorting

3.3.1        Current operation
The Steel Stockpile and Collection Area (SSCA) is currently co-located with the concrete stockpile and
crushing area. Steel is delivered to the steel stockpile area from offsite and also internally from transfer
areas. Steel is collected by SIMS at intervals determined by the NSC operational team directly from the
stockpile area. SIMS are equipped with an external excavator for undertaking pre-sorting of stockpiled steel
and loading of collection vehicles. The collection frequency from the November 2023 data was weekly, with
the number of vehicles for collection variable based on the steel quantity (the same collection vehicles
complete repeat trips to clear the stockpile). During site visits to the NRRF the operations team also note that
collections are varied based on the market price of steel to ensure highest rebate at collection, at the most
recent site visit the steel accumulation time was noted to be three months due to pricing influences.


3.3.2        Masterplan design considerations
To provide NSC with the highest flexibility for collection frequency, the SSCA has been optimised for size at
the selected location. Area required to accommodate collection frequency up to quarterly have been
determined, refer to Appendix E. The steel area has been located to allow for separated operational and
public access, operational access from the eastern end and operational access from the northern end. The
steel stockpile forms a physical barrier between the deposit of steel to stockpile and the collection and
sorting, this arrangement also reduces vehicle interaction in accessing the stockpile.
