C41 13 Akiraho Street (Gate Automation) SSCNVMP
C41.1 Introduction
This Site Specific Construction Noise and Vibration Management Plan (SSCNVMP) is for 13 Akiraho Street. A SSCNVMP is required because construction is predicted to exceed the standards in CRL designation conditions 31 and 33. This SSCNVMP has been prepared in accordance with CRL designation condition 37 and 38 and is Appendix C41 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 13 Akiraho Street.
This SSCNVMP has been prepared for the Link Alliance and forms part of the Construction Environmental Management Plan (CEMP) for the Mt Eden Station Main Works.
C41.2 Engagement
Mt Eden Main Works
Link Alliance representatives XXX met with building representative XXX on XXX date. The matters discussed included:
An overview of the project
General programme, demolition, blasting, rock breaking and utilities relocation activities
Overview of the CNV DWP and this SSCNVMP, communications triggers and monitoring The modern single-level commercial warehouse has a blank concrete façade overlooking the rail corridor and worksite.
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) 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 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) 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).
C41.3 Review Process
If XXX 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.
