Workplace Management Plan
Lake MacDonald Drive, Cooroy
▪ Implement mitigation measures to minimise further impacts.
▪ Communicate the actions taken and the outcomes of the investigation to the complainant and to the client.
If required waste tracking will be undertaken to ensure waste is disposed of adequately and managed correctly.
The Project Waste Register Form IMS-05-59 will be used to evidence this process.
Flora and Fauna
Shadforth aim to minimise impacts on native flora and fauna during the operation of this project by managing
the vegetation removal process and the protection of fauna species within proposed project and remediation
areas. Impacts on flora and fauna can be derived from vegetation clearing, general operation of vehicles and
machinery leading to death or injury of fauna, and the introduction of pest species. Prior to any works onsite a
suitably qualified
It is the responsibility of the project management team to ensure that the mitigation measures are complied
with. The clearing works for this project will follow general principles for vegetation clearing.
Phase 1 - Tree Protection Fencing to be installed
Phase 2 - Pre-start Meeting
Phase 3 - Fauna Inspections and Management
Phase 4 - Undertake Bulk Clearing
During the clearing stage, vegetation will be mulched. A mulch stockpiling location will be designated in an
easily accessible area allowing material to be easily delivered and stored. Cleared vegetation free of weeds is
to be reused on or off the project site. Recycling techniques include mulching, tub-grinding, wood chipping and
salvage (e.g. custom milling). Trees with identified hollows should have the hollow section preserved and
should be suitably mounted on nearby or adjacent suitable trees. As a minimum Shadforth adopt the following
procedures:
▪ Only surveyed, designated vegetation is to be cleared.
▪ Designated “No Go Zones” are signed with barricading in place.
▪ Workers do not handle or relocate fauna.
▪ Appropriately qualified professionals are commissioned for all spotting and relocation activities.
▪ Any required monitoring is undertaken.
▪ Injury or death of native animals is reported.
Injury or death of native fauna is reported immediately to the Project Manager and if required recorded on the
Project Fauna Register Form IMS-05-60. Shadforth Project Manager is responsible for notifying the client and
all other required personnel
Acid Sulphate Soils
Shadforth aim to minimise the impact of acid sulphate soils on the surrounding environment. The disturbance
of acid sulphate soils due to construction activities may cause the mixing of acid deposits with surface water
and or groundwater. This results in the formation of acidic waters. Acidic waters have the potential to impact
aquatic flora and fauna if they enter these environments.
Shadforth must comply with the following acid sulphate soil legislative documents.
▪ Integrated Planning Act 1997,
▪ State Planning Policy 2/02, Planning and Managing Development Involving Acid Sulphate Soils 1.0
▪ State Planning Policy 2/02 Guideline, Acid Sulphate Soils
▪ Environmental Protection Act 1994,
