Environmental Management Procedure
The Project Engineer determines action(s) to be carried out immediately to mitigate the impact of each
incident or breach.
All incidents/breaches are recorded on the Incident Report Form-Part A (WHS-FRM-027A)
Depending on the severity or nature of an incident or breach, the Project Engineer will notify the client’s
representative of the breach. All other parties involved with the project will be advised and informed as
necessary.
The Project Engineer and the Foreman are responsible for notifying the HSEQ Manager of all
incidents/breaches and actions in hand to process the Incident Report.
The HSEQ Manager is responsible for ensuring that all notifiable incidents are reported in the prescribed
format to the Environment & Resource Management Department, Queensland. The HSEQ Manager
maintains the Incident Register to facilitate monitoring of follow-up and eventual close-out of all incidents.
The Construction Manager / Project Engineer is responsible for ensuring that all reported incidents are
adequately investigated and that any necessary training and/or improvements to systems or work
procedures are implemented promptly.
12.2 Non-Project Incidents or Breaches
The Project Manager and the HSEQ Manager are responsible for ensuring that any non-project incidents
or environmental breaches are reported, adequately investigated and recorded.
13. Emergency Preparedness
Emergency procedures are defined in:
• Emergency Procedure: Project Sites (WHS-PRO-008)
• Emergency Procedure: Office (WHS-PRO-009)
Where the probability and level of risk to the environment are considered high or where legislation
requires, the project and/or other operation environmental assessment and control measures shall define
in addition to the above procedures the steps to be taken in the event of an Environmental Incident
occurring.
Project Managers / Engineers, Foremen and HSEQ Manager are responsible for ensuring that all
personnel are adequately briefed on these procedures, including conduct of rehearsals of the above
procedures at regular intervals. Appropriate records of rehearsals, de-briefings and any subsequent
training shall be maintained by the responsible officer.
14. Evaluation of Effectiveness – Environmental Assessment &
Control Measures
The Construction Management Team (for projects) and company management (for other operations) are
responsible for reviewing the application of defined procedures and control measures following each
emergency, incident or environmental breach in order to identify any requirements or opportunities for
improvement. The Project Engineer / HSEQ Manager is responsible for ensuring that post-incident
reviews are adequately and promptly undertaken.
The effectiveness of the processes for environmental aspect identification, risk assessment and definition
of control methods is evaluated through the following activities:
• Daily / Weekly checks – Foreman.
• HSEQ Board Report - HSEQ Manager
• Toolbox Meetings – Employees, Foremen, Project Engineers.
• Review of Incident Reports.
• Internal audits.
• Management Review.
