C19 11 Fenton Street (Station R Apartments) SSCNVMP

Page 62 C19.1 Introduction

This Site Specific Construction Noise and Vibration Management Plan (SSCNVMP) is for the residential building located at 11 Fenton Street. A SSCNVMP is required because construction is predicted to exceed the standards in CRL designation conditions 31 and 32. This SSCNVMP has been prepared in accordance with CRL designation condition 37 and 38 and is Appendix C19 of the Mt Eden Main Works Construction Noise and Vibration Delivery Work Plan (CNV DWP). It is a supplementary document that builds on the CNV DWP, and therefore directly references relevant sections of the CNV DWP to avoid repetition. The objective of this SSCNVMP is to detail the best practicable option(s) (BPO) to avoid, remedy or mitigate the identified adverse effects from noise and vibration exceedances at 11 Fenton Street.

This SSCNVMP has been prepared for the Link Alliance and forms part of the Construction Environmental Management Plan (CEMP) for the Mt Eden Main Works. It builds on the SSCNVMP previously prepared and implemented for the Mt Eden Enabling Works.

C19.2 Engagement

Mt Eden Enabling Works (for information)

Link Alliance representatives Sonya Leahy, Hilary Konigkramer, Aidan Kirkby-McLeod, Phil Young and Craig Fitzgerald met with building representative Tim Harding (body corporate chair of Station R Apartments) on 18 September 2019. The matters discussed included:

An overview of the project

General programme, demolition, rock breaking and utilities relocation activities

Overview of the CNV DWP and this SSCNVMP, communications triggers and protocol and for monitoring and pre-construction building condition surveys The modern multi-level terraced apartment building features basement car parking beneath 36 apartments with balconies on the north side overlooking the rail corridor and worksite. There are approximately 2-3 families with young children. Rock breaking activities are required in close proximity to this building for short periods. Figures B.7 and B.8 in Appendix B of the Mt Eden Enabling Works CNV DWP predict rock breaking noise levels of 80 –90 dB L Aeq on the west façade. While this significantly exceeds the 75 dB L Aeq noise limit, levels will reduce rapidly as works migrate away. Other utilities works will generally be compliant. Activity specific mitigation and management measures are included in Section 9 of the CNV DWP and not repeated here (e.g. Section 9.7 concrete and rock breaking). The modern concrete building has well sealed openable glazing. The estimated sound level difference across the façade with the windows and doors closed is 30 decibels. The predicted construction noise effects from Table 12.1 in Section 12.1 are predicted to result in shortterm noise disturbance. Physical receiver mitigation, such as temporary relocation of affected receivers, alternative ventilation and façade sound insulation improvements, have been considered, but are not required as part of the BPO for the C3 enabling works. Preliminary excavator mounted rock breaker vibration level predictions (Section 6.2 of the Enabling Works CNV DWP) identify that there is potential to exceed the commercial cosmetic

building damage thresholds. Cosmetic building damage effects are deemed ‘minor damage’ in the DIN Standard (Section 5.2), such as cracking in paint or plasterwork, and can generally be easily repaired. A pre construction building condition survey in accordance with CRL designation condition 46 has been undertaken to ensure any damage is identified for remediation.

Mr Harding agreed that prior communication of timeframes for works with the potential to exceed the relevant noise limits was an acceptable means of managing effects. No further activity specific consultation is necessary over and above regular communication (Section 10).

An overview of the next project phases

General programme, rock removal, excavation, piling, and utilities relocation activities

General review of CNV DWP and this SSCNVMP, communications triggers and monitoring CNV DWP Section 7 identifies summarise the potential scale of noise and/or vibration exceedances using the modelling outputs in insert hyperlink to the GIS maps here. The relevant stages are summarised below. Activity specific mitigation and management measures are included in Section 9 of the CNV DWP, and referenced in brackets, rather than repeated.

Noise

Retaining walls (refer piling in Section 9.8)

Excavation (refer concrete and rock breaking in Section 9.7) Utilities and drainage (refer concrete cutting and breaking in Sections 9.6 and 9.7)

Fenton and Porters Ave (refer rock breaking and piling in Sections 9.7 and 9.8)

Night Works (refer cranage night works in Section 9.2) The predicted construction noise effects from Table 12.1 in Section 12.1 are predicted to result in XXX noise effects. Physical receiver mitigation, such as temporary relocation of affected receivers, alternative ventilation and façade sound insulation improvements, have been considered, but are not required as part of the BPO for the Mt Eden Station Main Works.

Vibration

Excavation and piling (refer breaking, piling and compaction in Sections 9.7, 9.8 and 9.10) Fenton Bridge (refer rock breaking in Section 9.7)

Utilities and drainage (refer breaking, piling and compaction in Sections 9.7, 9.8 and 9.10) The above activities are predicted to have the potential to exceed the commercial cosmetic building damage thresholds. Cosmetic building damage effects are deemed ‘minor damage’ in the DIN Standard (Section 5.2), such as cracking in paint or plasterwork, and can generally be easily repaired. A pre construction building condition survey in accordance with CRL designation condition 46 will ensure any damage is identified for remediation.

XXX agreed that prior communication of timeframes for works with the potential to exceed the relevant noise and vibration limits was an acceptable means of managing effects. No further activity specific consultation is necessary over and above regular communication (Section 10).

C19.3 Review Process

If Mr Harding or affected site representatives request consultation in the future, this SSCNVMP will be updated in accordance with CRL designation conditions 37.5 and 38.5, with consideration given to the following:

The extent to which noise may exceed the designation standards

The timing and duration of any exceedance

The type of activity causing any exceedance

A summary of the communication and consultation with the receiver

The methods and measures to mitigate effects

A statement of why they reflect best practicable option Communications records are contained in the communication and consultation plan (CCP). This SSCNVMP will be updated to summarise engagement and any agreed site-specific measures.
