completion of the works and alt wastes shall be collected from the site and disposed of at a licensed
waste facility.

2. Your attention is drawn to the provisions of the Environmental Protection Act 1994 and the general
environmental duty of care not to pollute the environment or create a contaminated site when undertaking
works.

Site Based Management Plan

3. Prior to the commencement of works, a Site Based Management Plan (SBMP) must be prepared and be
implemented during construction of the works. The SBMP must identify all sources of environmental
harm, including but not limited to the actual and potential release of all contaminants, the potential impact
of these sources and what actions will be taken to prevent the likelihood of environmental harm being
caused. The SBMP must also provide for the review and ‘continua! improvement’ in the overall
environmental performance of activities to which this approval relates.

The SBMP must address the following matters:

(a) environmental commitments - a commitment by senior management to achieve specified and
relevant environmental goals;

(b) identification of environmental issues and potential impacts;

(c) control measures for routine operations to minimise likelihood of environmental harm;

(d) contingency plans and emergency procedures for non-routine situations (including but not limited to
the emergency protocol when spills occur and the amount of neutralising agent to be kept onsite);

(e) organisational structure and responsibility;

(f) effective communication;

({g) monitoring of contaminant releases;

(h} conducting environmental impact assessments;

(i) staff training;

(j) record keeping; and

4. The SBMP must not be implemented or amended in a way that contravenes any condition of this
approval.

5. You must ensure that all appropriate measures are taken to prevent the release of contaminants as a
result of silt runoff, chemical spills, concrete truck washout and alike. Concrete agitator wash out shall
only be conducted in a specified area to facilitate the removal of waste concrete from the area to landfill.
Wastewater from cleaning equipment shall not be discharged directly or in-directly to any waters.

Land

tun-off erosion.
7. All rock, stone, gravel, sand or other material used in the construction of the works must be:
