Pensar Environmental & Waste Management Plan

                                                                       Environmental Management Plan

3.         Site Environmental Management Requirements
3.1        Environmental Control Measures
Work procedures are defined for all high risk construction activities on this project (including those
activities with potential for causing environmental harm)
These work procedures are documented SWMS of the processes to be used, and/or project specific work
procedures. They may include control measures and responsibilities for specific work activities, including
involvement of subcontractors, equipment, machinery and materials; and are intended to ensure orderly,
efficient, environmentally responsible and safe execution of the relevant work activities.
The following environmental documents apply to this project:
      •   Project-Specific SWMS.
      •   Project Specific Work Instructions
      •   SWMS supplied by sub-contractors and which complement Pensar documentation

These work procedures contain all of the control measures defined following environmental aspect
identification and risk assessment processes addressed in section 1.8 above.
Where sub-contractors are involved in a work activity, relevant Pensar /project SWMS and/or work
procedures incorporate or complement the sub-contractors’ own SWMS. (Sub-contractor Safe Work
Method Statements are maintained in section 3.7 ‘Project Documents’ of the PMP with the relevant
Pensar/project work procedures.)

3.2        Consultation with other Stakeholders
The Project / Construction Manager is responsible for ensuring that adjoining landholders and/or other
parties are consulted and/or informed as necessary in definition of work processes and control measures
(e.g. in relation to any significant environmental aspects associated with the project site or the proposed
work activities).
Appendix G of the WHSMP contains details of all contacts for this project including:
           •    Emergency contacts
           •    Project personnel
           •    Client and client representatives
           •     Other community and stakeholder parties.
A copy of the “Project Contact Details” must be prominently displayed on the wall or notice board of the
project site office.
Consultation has included the following aspects:
      -   Definition of work processes that minimise potential for environmental impact – avoid potential for
          environmental harm in relation to each stakeholder’s interests.
      -   Agreement on means to publicise environmental management controls and signage.
      -   Identification of requirements where policing and/or close monitoring is warranted.

3.3        Hazardous Substances
The project management team are responsible for managing the SDS system on their projects. This
process is administered using the ChemWatch system and is detailed in the Hazardous Substances
Procedure (WHS-PRO-012). This is located in Appendix F of the WHSMP.
Note:
           •    Guidance on safe and environmentally responsible disposal of hazardous substances is
                provided in the SDS for each substance
           •    A Risk Assessment for each substance must be completed on form: Project SDS Risk
                Assessment (WHS-RA-002)
