APPENDIX B: SITE MANAGEMENT RULES FOR ENVIRONMENTAL
            PROTECTION – ECOLOGICAL RESTORATION PLAN
            (ERP)
The EMP for the ERP for the Settlers Cove project describes various management actions that will need to be
implemented for the duration of the project. Within these actions, there are a number of overarching Site
Management Rules that are to be stringently applied at the areas of implementation of the ERP ie. the Public
Open Space for Conservation and Waterways Protection (POSCWP), The RF Thompson Environmental Park,
the Esplanade and Council Park.

These rules are specified below . These rules are to be presented at the Site Induction Program to all personnel
who will be working on site. These rules will be given as a handout at the induction program and each person
attending the course will be required to sign a copy indicating that they have read, understood and will comply
with these rules. These rules will also be presented on a notice board clearly visible near the ERP contractors
office.

Any person found to be in breach of these rules will :
•   be advised of such by the ERP Contractor
•   be asked for an explanation as to why the rule has been broken
•   be advised to rectify the breach immediately
•   be required to show cause why they should not be excluded from further work at the site.
•   If necessary, the offender will be required to vacate the site.
•   Any costs for rectification of any breach will be deducted from the relevant contract.
