2.1.11 Noise and Vibration Management Plan

Issues

Objectives

Noise and vibration associated with construction activities, including pile driving and vegetation mulching have the potential to impact
on residents and local fauna.

To control noise and vibration in accordance with the requirements of the Environmental Protection Act 1994, the Environmental
Protection Policy 1998 and the Environmental Protection (Noise) Policy 1997 including the product labeling requirements (Part 5 EPP
(Noise) for construction plant

To minimise the impact of noise on nearby residential areas during the construction and vegetation mulching phase.

 

21101
Construction periods are restricted to

minimise impact on local community.

2141.2
Excessive noise and vibration is not
produced during construction.

2.1.11.2

Noise and vibration levels are
monitored and periods of excessive
noise are identified and the impacts
managed

Implementation Strategy

Performance Indicators

Restrict construction and mulching operations to the following periods:
7.00 — 5 pm Monday to Friday; and
8 am— 4 pm on Saturdays.

= Comply with the product labeling requirements of the EPP (Noise) as appropriate.

= Where possible silenced plant will be used on site.

= Atall times ensure that noise control devices, where fitted, are correctly used or operated.

» When one or more of the objectives and targets are breached, the works identified as causing the noise
problem will cease immediately. The site supervisor will investigate the problem and implement one or
more of the following mitigation measures:

Further limit the hours of operation of the construction site, e.g. for particularly noisy activities, to

minimise the risk of noise impacts.

Construction and Operational
Phase EMP

Absence of noise related complaints
from adjacent neighbors or others.

Monitor noise and vibration levet during construction activities.
Actively manage noise and vibration levels

 

Construction Phase EMP
Records of noise and vibration
measurements

 

Management Procedures

Ensure trucks do not leave engines running in residential streets while waiting for start times, and that machinery is operated only during
allowable times. Establish a complaints procedure and advise neighbors.

Note times when noise appears excessive, investigate complaints and implement corrective actions where appropriate.

On-site staff should receive induction in noise and vibration reduction techniques.
