Environmental Management Plan
24647 – 71 SEAVIEW TCE SUNSHINE BEACH

An assessment of the projects location and scope of work was completed to identify potential environmental issues that may require
consideration and/or management during construction (refer to WHSMP Appendix 1 - Project Risk Assessment – Environmental
Impacts).
Those aspects that were identified as having a moderate or greater risk of causing significant environmental impacts are as follows:

    Aspect                   Details
    Proximity to sensitive   The proximity of the works to the nearest sensitive receptors:
    receptors                         Residents: Three immediate neighbours
                                      Commuters: N/A
                                      Pedestrians: Limited pedestrians
                                      Customers: N/A
    Stormwater               Close proximity (100m) to Sunshine Beach


    Waste management         Waste generation is potential high, with loss of renewable resources, stress on landfill resources.
    Air quality              Dust minimisation – No dry cutting of masonry products; Wet down any dusty areas on site.
    Refer to PRA for all
    risks Moderate and
    greater

Those environmental aspects that were assessed as a low to insignificant risk will be monitored as part of routine site inspection
activities by the Site Manager or their delegate. If aspects initially assessed as low to insignificant risk, result in environmental harm,
the risk assessment should be revised and this EMP updated. The PRA will be reviewed 3 monthly and appropriate management
measures will be developed and implemented within a practical time after their identification. Implementation of the controls is to occur
by the Site Manager in consultation with the HSE Advisor.


5.2               Sub-contracted activities
The detachment of subcontractors from the main project delivery team can present an environmental risk to a project due to:
     Challenges in communicating environmental risks and controls to transient nature of sub-contractors and their employees

     Sub-contractors operating under a different management systems or standards.
Hutchinson Builders will ensure that the work of sub-contractors is monitored through daily surveillance whilst onsite; the site
inspection and auditing processes are detailed in Section 8.


5.3               Sustainable Procurement
Sustainable procurement refers to the purchase of goods and services that have a lesser or reduced effect on the environment and
human health (over the entire life cycle of the product i.e. production, distribution, usage and disposal), while maintaining value for
money, when compared with other products or services that serve the same purpose.
Hutchinson Builders shall adopt a sustainable approach to procurement in the process of delivering the project.


5.4               Environmental Management Measures
Specific management measures for the various environmental aspects of the works are provided as Environmental Work Method
Statements in Appendix C. The environmental management measures outlined aim to minimise or prevent the risk of adverse
environmental impacts.
Waste generated though construction activities may be outsourced to a licenced third party. Disposal dockets shall be retained on the
job file for future reference. Where the client specifies the use of a project specific Waste Management Plan a supplementary plan will
be established and retained on site as per Section 1.3.


5.5               Emergency Planning and Response (Section 6.3.7)
Environmental management will include planning for potential emergencies at the site. The organisational structure, responsibilities
and on-site contact details for all emergencies is specified Emergency Response Plan (WHSMP – Appendix 8). The relevant plan
