1 INTRODUCTION The City Rail Link (CRL) project comprises the construction, operation and maintenance of a 3.4 km underground passenger railway, running between Britomart Station and the North Auckland Rail Line in the vicinity of Mt Eden station. The works relating to this Industrial and Trade Activities Environmental Management Plan (ITA EMP) constitute part of the enabling works for the CRL. The works (the Project) involve the construction of twin rail tunnels within the Albert Street road corridor from Customs Street West to Wyndham Street. The tunnels will be constructed using a staged cut and cover method and are expected to take 33 months to complete. Figure 1 outlines the extent of works for the Project. This ITA EMP has been prepared by AECOM New Zealand Limited (AECOM) and forms part of the Construction Environmental Management Plan (CEMP) for the Project. The ITA EMP specifically relates to conditions 95 â€“ 104 of discharge permit R/REG/2014/5436.

Industrial and Trade Activities Environmental Management Plan Doc. No. CRL-PAT-ENV-CON-PLN-000895 Revision: 04, Date: 21 March 2016

PURPOSE OF THE INDUSTRIAL AND TRADE ACTIVITIES EMP

This ITA EMP has been prepared to manage the ITAs that will be undertaken in Construction Support Areas (CSAs) 4, 5 and 6 which are associated with the construction of the Britomart Station to Wyndham Street (Britomart to Wyndham) section of the City Rail Link (CRL) project. It provides a framework for the effective management of stormwater discharges from these CSAs - i.e. the Northern Compound (CSA 4 and CSA 5) and the Southern Compound (CSA 6), and documents the management and operational systems employed by Connectus to ensure that the environmental objectives of the site are met. The Project site will be operated and managed in accordance with this ITA EMP at all times. The Project comprises Active Construction Zones (ACZ) D and E (refer Figure 2), which were identified during the CRL Britomart to Wyndham enabling works consenting process to delineate construction methodology for different work areas. This ITA EMP does not apply to the ACZs because potentially contaminated stormwater generated in the ACZs will be pumped out of the trenches for treatment prior to discharge to the public stormwater system or managed as part of the erosion and sediment control processes (refer to the Project Erosion and Sediment Control Plan (ESCP) â€“ Appendix I of the Project CEMP). Condition 98 of R/REG/2014/5436 requires that a copy of the ITA EMP (certified version) is kept on site and is accessible at all times. This ITA EMP has been prepared in consultation with a Community Liaison Group (CLG) prior to submission to Auckland Council (as per resource consent condition 19). A record of consultation outcomes is included in Appendix D. A number of related management plans are referenced throughout this ITA EMP to avoid duplication of information and thereby enable efficient document control. The other relevant plans are the Project CEMP, Project ESCP (Appendix I of the Project CEMP, including Appendix D - Chemical Treatment Management Plan (CTMP)) and the Project Emergency Spill Response Plan (ESRP) (Appendix T of the Project CEMP).

Industrial and Trade Activities Environmental Management Plan Doc. No. CRL-PAT-ENV-CON-PLN-000895 Revision: 04, Date: 21 March 2016

It is noted that with the exception of CSA 6, the runoff from the ITA areas will not be treated by the WTP. Within 30 days of the installation of the water treatment system, and prior to operation, a discharge monitoring programme, to assess the ongoing adequacy of all management practices, shall be developed in accordance with Resource Consent conditions 101-104 (refer Section 2.3 of this ITA EMP and Section 3.5 of the CTMP). As required by Resource Consent condition 103, action is required if discharge sample results exceed trigger levels. The ESM will be immediately notified and communicate with Council to fulfil the following consent requirements: ď‚ˇ

Within five working days of receipt of sample results showing contaminants exceeding the agreed trigger levels (Condition 101(e)): a) an investigation shall be undertaken to determine why exceedances were detected and to identify any additional source controls or treatment required; and b) the results of the investigation shall be reported to the Council (Team Leader Central Monitoring).

4 ON SITE DRAINAGE The existing drainage system consists of the Auckland Council stormwater network currently in place within the Project site. This drainage system collects runoff from the road pavements and directs it to the stormwater pipelines which then discharge directly into the Waitemata Harbour through the existing discharge structure located at the Promenade. The release of contaminants to the stormwater network will be managed using the controls described in the Project ESCP and this ITA EMP. Appendix A provides site plans showing the existing stormwater drainage system within and adjacent to the Project site, including the ITA areas of CSAs 4, 5 and 6. The drawings also outline methods to manage sediment release during construction. Further details on sediment control methods can be found in the ESCP. 

5 POTENTIAL CONTAMINANTS AND MANAGEMENT CONTROLS Table 3 sets out the activities on site with the potential to generate contaminants which may enter the stormwater network. It also provides an assessment of the level of that risk and outlines structural and procedural controls to manage that risk. Appendix B provides examples of some of the procedures that will be used on site during the construction period. Risk has been assessed in accordance with the Contractorâ€™s Risk Assessment Guideline to establish an initial risk prior to controls (R1) and a residual risk after controls have been put in place (R2). Both assessments consider both likelihood of occurrence and level of consequence. Table 3 Potential Contaminants and Controls

6 RISK MANAGEMENT 6.1

STRUCTURAL CONTROLS

The following structural controls will be put in place to ensure that spills and contaminated water do not enter the stormwater system and receiving environment: o

Bunding of Environmentally Hazardous Substances (EHS) â€“ bunding will be provided where required and designed to contain a volume of 110% of the largest container. This ensures that if the largest container ruptures the spillage can be contained until it can be disposed of safely.

Settlement Tanks- Settlement tanks will be used to treat water from both the CSAs and the active construction zones. The tanks and any associated treatment device(s) will be designed to ensure that discharge levels comply with the identified trigger levels which are associated with the monitoring parameters established under Resource consent condition 101.

Resource consent condition 99 specifies using two 12,000L settlement tanks to achieve the discharge levels outcomes specified as per resource consent condition 101. However Resource consent condition 100 enables modifications to the specifications of condition 99, subject to providing the following information to Council for their certification: -

Plans and drawings outlining the details of the modifications; and

Supporting information that details how the proposal does not affect the capacity or performance of stormwater management system.

Section 2.1.8 of the Project ESCP outlines the proposed water treatment methodology which is to be applied to the ACZ and CSAs. Connectus have investigated modifying the structural control specifications outlined in condition 99 to achieve better and more efficient water quality outcomes. Connectus and AT have been in dialogue with Council Officers, who have provided agreement in principle to such modifications to the structural controls specifications. If Connectus decide to proceed with the current modifications to the structural controls (or any other such specification which achieves the outcomes specified by condition 101), such changes will be certified by AC in accordance with condition 100.

6.2

SPILL RESPONSE

An ESRP has been prepared for the Project. It includes the provision that all spills over 20 litres, or any spill of Environmentally Hazardous Substances that has entered the stormwater system, a waterbody or has contacted unsealed ground, shall be reported immediately to the AC 24 Hour Pollution Hotline (09-377-3107).

6.3

DISCHARGE MONITORING

Within 30 days of the installation of the water treatment system, and prior to operation, a discharge monitoring programme, to assess the ongoing adequacy of all management practices, shall be developed and submitted to AC (Team Leader Central Monitoring) for certification.

1 INTRODUCTION The City Rail Link (CRL) project comprises the construction, operation and maintenance of a 3.4 km underground passenger railway, running between Britomart Station and the North Auckland Rail Line in the vicinity of Mt Eden station. The works relating to this Trees and Vegetation Delivery Work Plan (TV DWP) constitute part of the enabling works for the CRL. The works (the Project) involve the construction of twin rail tunnels within the Albert Street road corridor from Customs Street West to Wyndham Street. The tunnels will be constructed using a staged cut and cover method and are expected to take 33 months to complete. Figure 1 outlines the extent of works for the Project. This TV DWP has been prepared by AECOM New Zealand Limited (AECOM) and forms part of the Construction Environmental Management Plan (CEMP) for the Project. The majority of the trees within the Project area are required to be removed with the exception of one stand of trees on Lower Albert Street, three trees along Customs Street west, and one tree near Wolfe Street.

OBJECTIVE OF TREES AND VEGETATION DWP

The purpose of this TV DWP is to manage adverse effects resulting from the removal of trees and vegetation during construction of the Project. Under CRL Designation condition 55.2 the objective of the TV DWP is to avoid the removal of scheduled trees as far as practicable. While there are no scheduled trees within the Project area, construction works will require the removal of trees and it is necessary to mitigate the adverse effects of construction on trees. This TV DWP identifies: 

Trees that will require removal within the Project area;



Trees requiring protection from construction works;



Mitigation and planting plans; and



Monitoring and reporting requirements.

This TV DWP has been prepared in consultation with a Community Liaison Group (CLG) and has undergone Independent Peer Review (IPR) prior to submission to Auckland Council (as per designation conditions 7 and 11). A record of consultation outcomes (CLG and IPRP) is included in Appendix A.

Condition

55.1

A Trees and Vegetation DWP shall be prepared to manage the adverse effects from the removal of trees and vegetation during the construction of the City Rail Link or any part of it.

55.2

The objective of the Trees and Vegetation DWP is to avoid the removal of scheduled trees as far as practicable. Where trees are identified for removal in surface works the Requiring Authority will remedy or mitigate the adverse effects of construction on trees and vegetation.

Relevant Section

1.1

To achieve the above objective the following shall be included in the Trees and Vegetation DWP and implemented as required:

55.3

(a) Confirmation of the trees to be removed due to surface construction works and whether it is appropriate and feasible to relocate or store these trees for replanting. The removal of schedule trees which form a significant group should only be undertaken as a last resort;

4.1

(b) A list of trees, which due to being located in proximity to construction works, have root systems and / or foliage within and / or overhanging the surface designation footprint, and the methods to be used, where practicable, to protect these trees from construction works;

4.1

(c) Cross references to the Urban Design DWP and the proposed mitigation of any tree / vegetation removal through replanting trees at a 1:1 ratio, re-instatement of the area, and other methods. In preparing the Trees and Vegetation DWP, the Requiring Authority shall seek input from the Auckland Council Parks Department with regard to tree species / vegetation selection, tree pit construction where deemed necessary, and the positioning of replacement trees, and from directly affected land owners with regards to preferences for any replacement planting for vegetation / trees removed from private property or for any replacement planting on private property;

(d) Other methods to be used to monitor and report on the management of the adverse effects from tree / vegetation removal; and

2 PROJECT DESCRIPTION This section presents a summary of the Project in relation to the matters required to be addressed by the TV DWP. A detailed description of the construction works in provided in the CEMP.

2.1

SUMMARY OF METHODOLOGY

Connectus will use a cut and cover method to construct two parallel rail tunnels within the Albert Street road corridor between Customs Street and Wyndham Street. The total length of the tunnel for the Project will be 340m. A number of utilities are required to be removed, relocated, or supported prior to and during construction. Generally, the Project works will consist of: 1.

Piling and capping beam construction within Albert Street

Piling is required as the initial stage of construction for the Project. It includes the installation of cased continuous flight auger (CFA) piles and the construction of a pilecap on the western side of Albert Street. Figure 2 shows the location and staging of the piling. Figure 2 Location of piling

Piling and road deck construction within the Customs Street Intersection;

Piling and construction of a temporary deck structure at the Customs Street/Albert Street intersection will permit traffic to cross over, while tunnel construction occurs underneath. The deck will be constructed in four stages over approximately 10 months. 3.

Trench Excavation

The trench excavation will be carried out in layers, temporary struts and ground anchors will be installed as the depth increases. Excavation will occur within the extent of the Albert Street Road reserve from Customs Street to Wyndham Street. Spoil will be removed by trucks using a constructed steel traffic deck along the length of Albert Street. 4.

Construction of the rail tunnels

The construction of the rail tunnels will be a rolling process with multiple work faces progressing simultaneously. The tunnel works will start at the southern end of Albert Street when the excavation plant is clear of the base of the tunnel. 5.

Backfill of the trench

As the construction of the tunnels progresses, back filling of the cut and cover excavation in the Custom Street Intersection and Albert Street trench will occur. Works to complete new utility routes or reinstate existing utilities will be co-ordinated with the filling operation as it reaches the upper layers. Finally, the construction of the new permanent road pavement will occur in stages after the trench backfill has been completed.

Trees and Vegetation Delivery Work Plan Doc. No. CRL-PAT-ENV-CON-PLN-001034 Revision: 05, Date: 21March 2016

Temporary Pavement

Where required in order to maintain traffic movements, it will be necessary to put down a temporary pavement. Temporary pavements will consist of unbound granular material with a bituminous seal, concrete panels, or steel plates on the surface. 7.

Public Realm Works

On completion of the Project construction works, the Customs Street/Albert Street public realm will be re-established in accordance with the Urban Design Delivery Work Plan (Urban Design DWP) for the CRL enabling works. These works are covered under a separate Outline Plan process. An appropriate urban design treatment is still being developed, and the Urban Design DWP will be finalised and submitted to AC prior to the Customs Street/Albert Street re-instatement works commencing. Amongst other things, the re-instatement works will include replacement planting to mitigate the effects of tree removal required by the CRL construction. Mitigation for tree removal will be provided by replanting trees at a ratio of at least 1:1, as required by the CRL designation conditions.

4 AFFECTED TREES AND VEGETATION 1

A Tree Assessment was prepared in August 2012 and formed part of the Notice of Requirement (NoR) for the CRL designations. The report found that while the Project will affect a number of trees that are located within the surface designation area, most of the affected trees are exotic street trees. There are no scheduled trees within the Project footprint, or in proximity. Within the Project area, Albert Street is primarily planted as an evergreen magnolia lined-avenue. The report states that some of the smaller of these evergreen magnolia trees may be transplanted or relocated to temporary storage during construction, due to the ability of the evergreen magnolias to tolerate transplantation.

4.1

TREES REQUIRED TO BE REMOVED 1

The tree numbering system used in this plan is consistent with the Tree Assessment completed previously, however two trees are considered in this plan that were not considered in the tree assessment. These have been labelled X1 and X2. Figure 3 shows the existing trees within or in proximity to the Project footprint. Due to the nature of the Project, all trees that are within the construction footprint are required to be removed, including: trees G3, G4, T8, and T10, T11, T12, and T14-T26. In addition trees G3 and G4 are in planter boxes which will be removed by the adjacent Precinct Properties Project. Trees T6, G5, G7, X1, X2, T9, and T13 are within proximity of the Project works but do not need to be removed for the Albert Street Cut and Cover Works. Whilst G5, T6 and T13 will be unaffected, Trees T9, G7, X1 and X2 will need pruning and or protection from works. Table 3 summarises the requirements for each identified tree. 4.1.1

Transplanting or removal of trees

Where trees are in the path of construction works, consideration has been given to transplanting the trees to a new location instead of cutting them down. However, site investigations have shown that the root balls of many trees are tangled with underground utilities (power, water, communications, sewage etc.). As a result, it is impractical and unsafe to attempt to extract an intact root ball. Therefore all trees scheduled for removal in Table 3 are required to be cut down to allow careful excavation and relocation of underground utilities.

5 MITIGATION MEASURES Due to the requirement to remove trees throughout the Project footprint, an adverse effect on the local treescape would result if no mitigation measures are implemented. In addition, mitigation measures will be put in place to protect trees labelled G5, G7, X1, X2 and T9 which are not required to be removed.

5.1

TREES THAT ARE REQUIRED TO BE REMOVED

Replacement planting will be required for all trees that are required to be removed, as identified in Figure 3. A replanting plan will be identified in the Project Urban Design DWP and will include (but may not be limited to) the following: 

Replanting of trees at least 1:1 ratio. Trees to be 4-5m height in ground, with single clear trunk to minimum 1.6m, trunk to be no less than 50mm in diameter at 300mm above ground, in good robust health with suitably sized root ball.



Area reinstatement.



The opportunity to include appropriate native species in the replacement and landscape plantings.



Documentation of the input from the Auckland Council Parks Department with regard to tree species / vegetation selection, tree pit construction and positioning of replacement trees.



An outline of the maintenance periods and responsibilities (i.e. the Requiring Authority for a period of five years for specimen trees and 3 years for all other landscape planting).



Consultation outputs (refer Section 6 of this TV DWP).

5.2

TREES THAT ARE NOT REQUIRED TO BE REMOVED

5.2.1

Arboricultural Monitoring

A suitably qualified and experienced arborist will be engaged to act as the Site Arborist for the Project. The Site Arborist will be available (as required) to address any ad hoc issues that may arise in relation to tree health. The Site Arborist shall also undertake regular Arboricultural Site Reviews (ASR) at a period of no less than once every two months during any period for which works are to take place within 4 metres of the dripline of any tree(s) which will not be removed as part of the construction works. The ASR shall provide an opportunity to assess tree health of each of the trees which are to be retained, assess tree protection measures where provided, as well as providing general guidance to direct the preservation of tree health during the course of works. The initial ASR should be undertaken at least 10 working days prior to the first commencement of work within 10 metres of any tree which is to be retained. The Site Arborist will prepare a Tree Management Checklist to be issued to the Environmental and Sustainability Manager (ESM) during the initial arboricultural site review to enable continuous monitoring of tree health in the intervals between each arboricultural site review. The Tree Management Checklist should include (but may not be limited to): 

Direction for assessing general tree health.



Direction to identify deterioration of tree health. Page 20

Contact details for the Site Arborist.

The ESM will undertake periodic monitoring of tree health as prescribed by the Tree Management Checklist at periods of no less than once every 14 days, and evidence of this monitoring should be provided to the Site Arborist during each ASR. If the ESM identifies evidence of declining tree health, the Site Arborist should be engaged to provide assistance in determining the cause of such deterioration and provide direction where appropriate. 5.2.2

Tree Specific Measures

The following sections outline the proposed mitigation measures to be employed for the trees identified as remaining in Figure 3 and Table 3. 5.2.2.1

ID T6

The Pohutukawa Tree identified at T6 (Figure 4) is not expected to be affected by the Project and therefore will require no additional protection. It will remain in a public pedestrian space. Tree health will be monitored regularly during construction. This will be undertaken in accordance with the periodic ASR and the regular tree health monitoring undertaken by the ESM. Figure 4 ID T6

5.2.2.2

ID G5

The group of trees identified as G5 (Figure 5) are not expected to be affected by the Project and therefore will require no additional protection. They will remain in a public pedestrian space. Tree health will be monitored regularly during construction. This will be undertaken in accordance with the periodic ASR and the regular tree health monitoring undertaken by the ESM.

Whilst not envisaged to occur, should extensive pruning be required to remove the tree canopy of X1 or X2 that negatively affects their visual character, replacement planting may be provided as outlined in Section 4.1. A protection fence will be erected between the construction works and the trees, however the trees will not be totally ring fenced as they remain in a public pedestrian area. Tree health will be monitored regularly during construction. This will be undertaken in accordance with the periodic ASR and the regular tree health monitoring undertaken by the ESM.

Damage caused to trees above surface level will be obvious such as broken branches. Therefore a qualified arborist is not required The closest tree to the excavation works is T9, and there is at least 5m from the face of the trench excavation to the closest point of the T9 canopy.

It is unclear from the TV DWP why the small magnolia (T10) needs to be removed but the much larger alder (T9) is capable of being retained.

No change to this TV DWP T10 is required to be removed in order for vehicle tracking to be maintained on Wolfe Street. T9 does not interfere with vehicle tracking and can therefore remain.

The canopies of these trees encroach into the carriageway quite significantly. An understanding of the pruning requirement would be helpful. IF the trees need to be pruned back to the kerb line for example, their visual character will be compromised and their contribution in this setting would be in question. A good long term outcome could be reached by removing them should extensive pruning be required and providing replacements. This would need to be undertaken through liaison with AC Parks.

Tree G3 (pohutukawa x4). Three of these trees are potentially suitable for relocation. One has rotated at its base and is unlikely to prosper.

There needs to be some comments / recommendations in relation to the elms (T13) and the requirements under The Biosecurity Act (1993). How will this material (wood and soil) be dealt with in order to comply with these provisions?

The four Pohutukawa identified as G3 do not affect this Project (C2) but are being removed by Precinct Properties. As such, the potential relocation of these trees and mitigation is the domain of Precinct Properties. No change to this TV DWP Connectus confirms that the six Elm trees identified at T13 are not required to be removed and therefore specific provisions to remove Elm trees as part of the Project are not necessary.

Aside from protective fencing, other tree protection measures such as caring for roots are absent from the TV DWP. Is this level of detail required at this stage? Appointing an arborist before construction begins to coordinate works around trees seems appropriate. He / she could most likely prepare a site specific tree protection plan if required.

Section 5.2.5 added, detailing the mitigation measures required for T13 The trees to be retained (T6, G5, G7, X1,X2, T9, T27-T30) will not have their roots disturbed due to the sufficient distance between the trees and the Project works. As a result, appointing a qualified arborist will not add additional value. Since damage to trees below ground cannot occur, the only protection required for trees is above ground i.e. Protective fencing. No change to this TV DWP

1 WYNDHAM ST PERMANENT WORKS These works are required to provide the permanent connection between the existing stormwater system outside the pile wall and the new system to be installed inside the pile wall in the future. The majority of these works need to be completed prior to tunnel box excavation to minimise the delay to the excavation which is on the critical path. The works will be scheduled so that all the set-up works can be completed prior to tunnel box excavation and then the only works required during tunnel box excavation is breaking through the pile wall and installing the pipe. It is anticipated that these works will take 25 days and can be completed prior to piling. These works will require separate traffic management.

1.1

CONSTRUCTION SEQUENCE 1. Close traffic to Wyndham Street and western side of Albert St at Wyndham St intersection. 2. Carry out service relocations northwest of existing SWMH 9/1 to ensure adequate space available for new SWMH 9/1. Drawings indicate that relocations should not be required. 3. Excavate and install new SWMH 9/1 northwest of existing SWMH 9/1. Note that this manhole will need to be 1m deeper than that shown in the design to allow placement of muck skip below pipe invert during pilot bore operations. a. New SWMH 9/1 northwest of existing SWMH 9/1 i. Diameter: 2.5m ii. IL: 15.38m (allowing for an additional 1m for pilot bore equipment) iii. Depth To Invert: 6.27m 4. Install new pipe from new SWMH 9/1 to existing SWMH 9/1 using pilot bore method. a. Pipe i. Length: 5.75m ii. Grade: 6.6% iii. Material: GRP iv. Size: 375mm 5. Plug end of newly installed pipe between new SWMH 9/1 and existing SWMH 9/1. 6. Coinciding with excavation inside the tunnel box, install new pipe from new SWMH 9/1 past pile wall alignment. a. Pipe i. Length: approx. 12m ii. Grade: 0.5% iii. Material: GRP iv. Size: 375mm 7. Follow-up works. When temporary stormwater system inside pile wall is live, then the bung in the pipe between the new SWMH 9/1 and existing SWMH 9/1 can be removed and flows allowed to travel down new line.

2 WYNDHAM STREET TEMPORARY DIVERSION WORKS These works are required in order to avoid a clash between the existing stormwater system and the western pile wall. It is anticipated that these works will be completed at the same time as the Kingston â€“ Wyndham St Permanent Stormwater works. This work is temporary work that will become redundant once the new stormwater system is installed. These works are expected to have a duration of 10 days. These works will require separate traffic management works.

2.1

CONSTRUCTION SEQUENCE 1. Slew electrical cables from SWMH 9/3 to SWMH 9/2 to the west to make room for temporary diversion line from SWMH 9/3. 2. Access existing SWMH 9/3 and install pump. Pump storm water from existing SWMH 9/3 to SWMH 9/1 via a temporary diversion pipe. This is to prevent flow from SWMH 9/3 affecting connection of temporary line. A temporary plug will need to be installed in EXSWMH 9/1 in the line towards EXSWMH 9/2 to prevent any backflow up line being worked on. 3. Excavate trench from SWMH 9/3 to intersect with existing SW line from SWMH 9/1 to SWMH 9/2 at a point approx. 2m north of SWMH 9/2. Use a combination of straight and a bend to eliminate having to relocate the existing electrical and fiber optic services. 4. Install Pipe and connect to existing pipe between SWMH 9/1 and SWMH 9/2 at the northern end and SWMH 9/3 at the southern end. This pipe is temporary only. a. Pipe i. Length: approx. 26m ii. Grade: approx. 3.0% iii. Type: Stormboss SN8 iv. Size: 225mm 5. Remove bung from EXSWMH 9/1 and pump/temporary diversion from EXSWMH 9/3 and allow water to run down newly installed temporary line. 6. Demolish existing SWMH 9/2 7. Demolish existing pipes between SWMH 9/2 and SWMH 9/3 and SWMH 9/2 and new connection towards SWMH 9/1. 8. Water to remain flowing through existing system via existing SWMH 9/1 until temporary storm water pipe installed inside pile wall. 9. Re-open Wyndham Street and west side of Albert Street.

Figure 2: Wyndham Street Temporary Diversion Early Works

3 KINGSTON - WYNDHAM STREET (EXCL CONNECTIONS TO EXISTING) EARLY WORKS These works consist of two sections â€“ the permanent works between Kingston and Wyndham St and the temporary diversion works of the existing stormwater at Wyndham St.

3.1

PERMANENT WORKS â€“ KINGSTON TO WYNDHAM ST

These works consist primarily of the partial installation of the new permanent stormwater system between Kingston St and then end of the tunnel box. These works are required to be completed as early works in order to provide a connection between the existing stormwater network and the future temporary stormwater network to allow the demolition of the main sewer trunk line running down Albert Street. Delaying the demolition of the Albert St main will delay excavation which is on the critical path. These works are expected to have a duration of 20 days. These works will require separate traffic management.

3.2

CONSTRUCTION SEQUENCE: - Note: Sequence can be reversed if necessary. 1. Close traffic to Kingston Street and western lane 1.5m lanes on Albert St between Kingston and Wyndham St. 2. Access existing SWMH 3/8 at the Kingston / Albert St intersection. Install bung in outlet of existing SWMH 3/8. Install pump in existing SWMH 3/8 and run temporary pipe along surface to existing SWMH 9/2. This will provide temporary diversion of water while installing new connection to SWMH 3/8 on the existing stormwater line. 3. Excavate and connect to existing network just downstream from existing SWMH 3/8. Connection will need to be a wye connection with valves. The existing network will need to remain live until the temporary network within pile walls is complete. The new connection will be temporarily closed until temporary network is complete. Once temporary network is complete, one outlet of the wye connection can be closed so that water flows down new line. 4. Remove temporary diversion and allow water to flow down existing stormwater line again. 5. Excavate and install new pipe from existing network at existing SWMH 3/8 to new SWMH 3/7. a. Pipe i. Length: 7.77m ii. Grade: 0.6% iii. Type: Reinforced Concrete RRJ iv. Size: 375mm 6. Excavate and install new SWMH 3/7 and backfill. a. SWMH 3/7 i. Diameter: 1.05m ii. IL: 19.72m iii. Depth To Invert: 2.49m 7. Excavate and install permanent pipe from SWMH 3/7 to future location of SWMH 3/6 and backfill. a. Pipe i. Length: 63.47m ii. Grade: 1.1% iii. Type: Stormboss SN16 iv. Size: 375mm

Figure 3: Kingston to Wyndham Street Early Works

4 CUSTOM STREET INTERSECTION EARLY WORKS The works covered in this section involve the installation of a section of the new permanent stormwater system at the Custom St intersection. These works are required to be completed early to provide a connection to the existing stormwater network for the northern section of the temporary and permanent stormwater networks and also to minimise traffic disturbance. It is anticipated that these works will have a duration of 50 days.

4.1

CONSTRUCTION SEQUENCE: 1. Install traffic management for north east corner of Customs St. 2. Install SWMH 1/1 adjacent to existing Albert St trunk main. a. SWMH 1/1 i. Diameter: 1.5m ii.

From this window, excavate on a downwards angle until the face of the Albert St trunk main is exposed. 4. Core a hole through the side of the Albert St trunk main from within SWMH 1/1. 5. Install a short pipe stub from SWMH 1/1 into the Albert St trunk main. This pipe may need a flange to help seal to Albert St trunk main. a. Pipe i. Length: est approx. 0.5m ii. Grade: TBC iii. Type: GRP iv. Size: 600mm 6. Seal annulus of pipe with grout. 7. Reopen traffic to north east corner. 8. Await traffic management for south west corner of Customs St. 9. Excavate and install SWMH 1/2. Note that invert level of SWMH will need to be 1m below design invert level to allow for muck skip for pilot bore operations. a. SWMH 1/2 i. Diameter: 2.5m ii. IL: 4.70m iii. DTI: 3.21m 10. Install new permanent pipe from SWMH 1/2 to SWMH 1/1 using pilot bore method. a. Pipe i. Length: 35.03m ii. Grade: 1.7% iii. Type: GRP iv. Size: 600mm 11. Access existing SWMH 2/2 to the west of future SWMH 1/3 location. Install temporary bung in existing outlet. Install pump in existing manhole and run temporary diversion pipe along surface to existing SWMH 2/1 (or nearby catchpit if conflict with traffic). This will provide temporary diversion of water while installing new SWMH 1/3 on the existing stormwater line.

12. Excavate and install SWMH 1/3. Ensure that existing stormwater line from existing SWMH 2/2 is reconnected. However, the existing pipe to the east of new SWMH 1/3 can be abandoned. a. SWMH 1/3 i.

Remove temporary diversion and bung from SWMH 2/2 and allow water to flow down new permanent stormwater line from SWMH 1/3 to SWMH 1/1 then into existing stormwater main.

Figure 4: Customs Street SW Works

5 SWANSON ST WEST WORKS These works are required to provide the permanent connection between the existing stormwater system outside the pile wall and the new temporary and permanent system to be installed inside the pile wall in the future. The reason for conducting these works prior to tunnel box excavation works is to minimise the effect on the excavation for the tunnel box which is on the critical path. It is anticipated that these works will take 12 days and can be completed prior to piling. These works will require separate traffic management.

5.1

CONSTRUCTION SEQUENCE 1. Close traffic to west Swanson Street and western lane of Albert Street at Swanson Street intersection. 2. Slew existing services. 3. Excavate trench from EXSWMH 7/1 to location of future SWMH 3/2 inside pile wall. a. Existing SWMH 7/1 i. Diameter: 1.05m ii. IL: 15.50m iii. Depth To Invert: 2.67m b. Future SWMH 3/2 i.

Re-open west Swanson Street and west lane of Albert Street.

Figure 5: Section of Temporary / Permanent SW Line to be Completed Prior to Piling Works

6 SWANSON ST EARLY WORKS There are two sections of stormwater work at Swanson Street. There are works on the eastern side of Albert St adjacent to the Swanson St shaft and works on the western side of Albert St. The works on the eastern side of Albert St are the works that are required to be completed early.

6.1

SWANSON ST EAST EARLY WORKS

These works are required to provide the permanent connection between the newly installed Swanson St shaft and the new temporary and permanent system to be installed inside the pile wall in the future. The reason for conducting these works as early works is to minimise the effect on the excavation for the tunnel box which is on the critical path and complete prior to piling to maintain the minimum single lane of traffic in each direction. It is anticipated that these works will take 35 days. These works can be completed using the same traffic management arrangement as the Swanson St Shaft.

Figure 6: Swanson St East Works â€“ Plan

Figure 7: Swanson St East Works â€“ Cross-Section

6.2

CONSTRUCTION SEQUENCE -

These works will utilize the same traffic management as the closure to Swanson St for the initial Swanson St shaft works. 1. During excavation of Swanson St shaft cavern, excavate a horizontal tunnel from the Swanson St shaft to a point past the pile wall. Install short stub of pipe to grade for future ANZ Tower connection. Note: when Swanson St shaft concrete base is constructed, concrete will be poured around pipe. a. Pipe: i. Length: approx. 2m ii. Grade: 0.3% iii. Depth To Invert: 10.82m iv. Type: Stormboss SN16 v. Size: 300mm 2. Demolish existing service pit on the southwest corner of the Swanson St shaft. 3. Following installation of Swanson Street shaft but prior to receiving the TBM and piling of the area, excavate and install SWMH 3/1. This can be completed by open trenching. This manhole will have an internal base to allow it to be placed as close to the Swanson St shaft as possible. a. Manhole: i. Diameter: 1.5m ii. IL: 14.93m iii. Depth To Invert: 2.97m

iv. Height: 2.1m riser with internal base 4. From SWMH 3/1, use a concrete coring machine to core an 800mm diameter core through the wall of SWMH 3/1 and into the Swanson St shaft. 5. Install a short pipe stub between Swanson Street shaft and SWMH 3/1 and seal annuluses. The sealing of the annulus in the Swanson St shaft will require work from a man cage. a. Pipe: i. Length: approx. 0.5m ii. Grade: unknown assume 1.0% iii. Depth To Invert: approx. 3m iv. Type: PE v. Size: 600mm 6. Install a short pipe stub between SWMH 3/1 and pile wall by open trenching. Place temporary cap on pile wall end of pipe stub. Seal annulus within SWMH 3/1 and backfill. a. Pipe: i. Length: approx. 2m ii. Grade: 1.4% iii. Depth To Invert: approx. 3m iv. Type: Reinforced Concrete RRJ v. Size: 600mm 7. Place temporary lid on SWMH 3/1 below underside of future pile cap to avoid clash with pile cap. 8. Backfill SWMH 3/1. Note: there will be no temporary access to SWMH 3/1 until pile cap is demolished. 9. Follow-up works a) Install dropper for pipe between SWMH 3/1 and Swanson St shaft prior to dis-establishing shaft. Do not install earlier as it will restrict access. b) During tunnel box excavation, make connections to previously installed pipe stubs inside pile wall. c) Upon completion of tunnel box backfilling and demolition of pile cap adjacent to SWMH 3/1, the top portion of SWMH 3/1 can be completed. These works will involve the installation of an additional riser and permanent lid on top of the existing SWMH 3/1 base riser.

7 VECTOR, WATER MAIN AND CHORUS WORKS The remaining works to be completed outside of the trench alignment and prior to piling consists of vector gas, vector comms and vector electricity to be installed on the eastern and western footpaths, as well as a water main upgrade on the southern side of the Customs St intersection. These works are required for a range of reasons which include future proofing for Vectors CBD network, and relocation of the existing network which conflicts with the piles and proposed tree pits. The Vector relocation and future proof duct installation on both the eastern and western footpaths will terminate at the southern end of the cut and cover trench and will not extend past the bluestone wall.

7.1

VECTOR COMBINED SERVICE TRENCH ON WESTERN FOOTPATH INCLUDING ROAD CROSSINGS AT MILLS LANE, SWANSON ST AND WYNDHAM ST:

The Vector combined service trench is to be installed approximately 1m to the west of the existing kerb line (depending on the results of slot trench investigations). This alignment is driven by the location of the proposed tree pits. The trench will consist of the following dimensions: 

Length - 350m



Width – 1.5m



Depth – 1.2m

The trench will start on the SW corner of Custom St and continue up Albert St approximately 1m inside the existing kerb line. The construction of the combined service trench includes the installation of approximately 2 new communications pits, as well as the excavation of approximately 10 joint pits ranging in size from 5m x 2m x 1.2m to 6m x 2m x 1.4m). The western most traffic lane will be closed within each block during these works to allow trucks and machinery to move in and out of the work area safely. This work includes the installation of vector electricity ducting approximately 50m down Swanson St east to a joint pit which will be excavated over the existing cables. This jointing work is required to energise the Precinct development and provide power supply for their construction works currently programmed for January 2017. The machinery which will be used for these works includes: 

Saw Cutter



Vacuum Excavation Truck



1.5T, 5.5T Excavator



Jackhammer



Rock Breaker (for Albert St road crossings)



4-6 wheel trucks



Hand Compactor

Vector Communications on Eastern Footpath: Vector communications ducts are required to be installed on the eastern footpath between Customs St and Mills Lane due to a conflict between the existing communications cables and the proposed tree

pits. 1 x 100mm duct will be installed approximately 1m east of the existing kerb line. This communications duct will be installed in a combined trench with the Vector gas main which is summarised below. The installation of the new duct line includes the construction of the 2 new communications pits. A further 120m of vector communications future proof ducting will be installed for 120m between Swanson St and Wyndham St. The trench will consist of the following dimensions: 

Length - 200m



Width – 1.0m



Depth – 1.2m

The machinery which will be used for these works includes: 

Saw Cutter



Vacuum Excavation Truck



1.5T, 5.5T Excavator



Jackhammer



Rock Breaker (for Albert St road crossings)



4-6 wheel trucks



Hand Compacto

7.2

VECTOR GAS ON EASTERN FOOTPATH:

Vector communications ducts are required to be installed on the eastern footpath between Customs St and Swanson St due to a conflict between the existing gas main and the proposed tree pits. 1 x 200mm PE duct will be installed approximately 1m east of the existing kerb line. This gas duct will be installed in the same trench as the Vector communications duct which is required between Customs St and Mills Lane. Between Mills Lant and Swanson St, the gas duct will be installed in its own trench. The trench will consist of the following dimensions: 

Length - 200m



Width – 1.0m



Depth – 1.2m

The machinery used for the vector gas installation will be as per the machinery listed above for the vector comms trench.

7.3

WATERMAIN UPGRADE CUSTOMS ST SOUTH:

The existing water main crossing Albert St on the southern side of the Customs St intersection has been deemed by Watercare as being too brittle to be supported across the trench for the duration of cut and cover trench construction. The watermain is therefore to be upgraded to PE pipe in its existing location. This work will be carried out prior to trench excavation and the PE pipe will then be supported during construction of the running tunnels. The trench will consist of the following dimensions: 

Length – 25m



Width – 1.0m



Depth – 1.5m

The machinery used for construction of the watermain upgrade will include:



Saw Cutter



Vacuum Excavation Truck



Excavator



Jackhammer



Rock Breaker (If concrete is located in the roadway)



4-6 wheel trucks



Hand Compactor



Roller

7.4

CHORUS RELOCATION ON SWANSON ST AND WYNDHAM ST:

A relocation of chorus communications cables at Swanson St was required as part of the SP2 works, however due to the condition and location of the existing ducts, a new design was required. These works now include trenching down Swanson St to an existing pit on Mills Lane. This trench will consist of the following dimensions: 

Length – 50m



Width – 1.0m



Depth – 1.5m

The existing chorus network at Wyndham St conflicts with the proposed pile alignment. A relocation of this network is therefore required. This includes the installation of new ducts across Wyndham St east and Albert St (south of Wyndham St), and also includes the installation of two new pits. The trench will consist of the same dimensions as noted above. Machinery for the chorus relocation works at both Swanson St and Wyndham St will include the following: 

Saw Cutter



Vacuum Excavation Truck



Excavator (4T – 12T)



Jackhammer



Rock Breaker (for Albert St road crossing)



4-6 wheel trucks



Hand Compactor

1 PURPOSE The City Rail Link (CRL) project comprises the construction, operation and maintenance of a 3.4 km underground passenger railway, running between Britomart Station and the North Auckland Rail Line in the vicinity of Mt Eden station. The construction works relating to this Communication and Consultation Plan (CCP) constitute part of the enabling works for the CRL, which Auckland Transport 1 (AT) has engaged Connectus to undertake. The works (the Project) involve the construction of twin rail tunnels within the Albert Street road corridor from Customs Street West to Wyndham Street. The tunnels will be constructed using a staged cut and cover method and are expected to take 33 months to complete. Figure 1 outlines the extent of works for the Project. The CRL project construction zone is a busy, multi-use area affecting a range of transport, business, community and residential activities. Public liaison and stakeholder communications are critical to the success of the Project. The development of a CCP is required by both the CRL designation and the CRLCRL enabling works resource consents. The wide-ranging concerns and the needs of all stakeholders have been considered and addressed during the Early Contractor Involvement (ECI) design development stage of the Project, and will continue to be addressed during the construction stage. This will be achieved through close collaboration with Auckland Transport (AT) and stakeholder engagement and communications initiatives. This CCPCCP has been prepared by Connectus to address the communication and consultation related conditions established through the CRL Notice of Requirement (NoR) process and the CRL Britomart to Wyndham Street enabling works resource consents. The CCP addresses the construction elements of the conditions by continuing AT’s best practice communication and consultation undertaken to date, to ensure a quality approach throughout the project’s lifetime from pre to post construction. There are also references in the CCP to an Infrastructure Sustainability Council of Australia (ISCA) Infrastructure Sustainability (IS) Rating, which is a comprehensive rating and certification tool for evaluating sustainability across the design, construction and operation of the CRL project. The IS Rating related content is not required for the purposes of the designation and resource consent conditions, but is required to provide sufficient documentary evidence for the purposes of obtaining an IS Rating. The CCPCCP identifies the project communications channels, audiences and timeframes for the construction periods and how the affected community will be informed of construction progress, activity and milestones. The CCPCCP has been prepared in consultation with the Community Liaison Group established for the enabling works as representatives of proximity parties, as well as with named parties relevant to this stage of the project.

Connectus is a joint venture between Hawkins and McConnell Dowell.

2 CONTEXT 2.1

PLAN OVERVIEW

The purpose of this CCP is to describe the processes and protocols relating to how Connectus will: 

Manage and deliver communication and consultation with the community, stakeholders and affected parties and affected in proximity parties during the construction of the CRL Albert Street cut and cover works;



Provide assistance and cooperation to AT in relation to media and stakeholder relations activities, and



Comply with the requirements and responsibilities set out in the designation and resource consent conditions, and AT’s own Communication Consultation Plan for the CRL project.

This CCP will ensure:

2.2



The public and affected communities are well informed and feel safe. They will know about construction progress and future construction activities and any constraints that could affect them;



Disruptions are minimised;



There is ‘one face’ for the project;



Both AT and Connectus maintain a positive reputation and support amongst the stakeholder groups;



Information is provided early on key project milestones;



AA framework is provided to obtain feedback and input from directly affected and affected in proximity parties;



Ensure queries and complaints are responded to quickly and appropriately;



Stakeholders, including the media, pedestrians, motorists, adjacent residents and businesses, are positively engaged, and



The CRL delivery teams understand their responsibilities and can collaborate and quickly respond to stakeholder concerns.

CONSULTATION AND COMMUNICATION APPROACH

AT and Connectus will undertake consultation and communication on the basis that we wish to take our stakeholders with us on the project journey. We are committed to delivering the project as fast as possible with as little disruption as possible to businesses, commuters and the community and will work with them to achieve this. Consultation will continue to occur with key stakeholders, and those who are impacted as a result of their proximity to the designation. Engagement with other stakeholders and the public will be about communication; providing them with information on the project and responding to their inquiries and concerns. The results of consultation will influence the management of project effects to better address the issues. . 17

City Rail Link – Enabling Works Contract 2 Project #: 2665 Client: Auckland Transport

Communication and Consultation Plan Doc. No. CRL-PAT-CST-CON-PLN-001282 Revision: 6, Date: 1 June 2016

AT established a CRL communication and consultation strategy in 2012 with a range of objectives and principles. These include: 

A proactive approach- AT will approach stakeholders with information rather than sit back and wait for people to come to it with inquiries; key stakeholders and affected parties have a right to express their views and concerns about a project that has the potential to affect them



Effective communication channels- AT will maintain constructive links with key stakeholders by communicating on a regular basis; continual networking and presence in the business and other relevant communities; and seeking opportunities for dialogue and information-sharing.



Openness about issues- Information should demonstrate that AT is being upfront and transparent about what is proposed and provide as much certainty as possible while acknowledging that project detail is not finalised.



Responsiveness- Responses will use best practice by being timely, full, helpful, frank and detailed; key stakeholders and affected parties have a right to expect that their views and concerns will be considered in project decisions. They should demonstrate that AT is listening, even if agreement cannot be reached.

The objectives have four areas of focus: 



Inform stakeholders about the project o

Engage constructively with key stakeholders/target audiences, providing consistent information across the project.

Maintain and enhance existing relationships for ongoing constructive engagement.

Explain the process and timing o

Ensure key target audiences and stakeholders have an accurate understanding of the project and its implications.

Explain how the planning processes work and how people can input into them.

Educate people about the CRL o

Discuss how the project fits into strategic city planning and the regional development of transport infrastructure.

Minimise uncertainty and dispel misinformation.

Enhance AT’s reputation o

Ensure that AT is open and responsive to stakeholder feedback.

Manage communications risks that may impact the project and AT’s reputation.

Connectus have adopted these objectives and have developed this CCP accordingly.

2.3

CONSULTATION UNDERTAKEN

Extensive consultation has been undertaken in preparation for the construction of the CRL in order to understand the specific access requirements and other potential disruption issues for residents and individual businesses/services. Consultation has been undertaken by Alan Howard-Smith (Connectus Communication and Consultation Manager), along with other Project specialists (e.g. Noise and Vibration). The purpose of the consultation was to identify the type and scale of disruption, specific access and servicing requirements, and client and visitor behaviour and requirements.

3 PRINCIPLES AND OBJECTIVES 3.1

PROJECT KEY MESSAGES

The key messages reflect the project objectives and form the basis for the project’s overall strategy for informing and getting feedback from those impacted. While these will remain constant throughout the project duration and beyond, they will at times be supported by other messages that reflect construction activity and/or other influencing factors. The hierarchy of the key messages will be defined by the audience (e.g. local / regional / national) and its relationship to the project. Examples are: 

The CRL is integral to meeting Auckland’s growth and subsequent transport demand.



Completing the CRL will provide faster, more frequent travel for all Auckland rail users



Disruption during construction will be managed to ensure Auckland keeps working



The Construction Environmental Management Plan CEMP reflects unwavering commitment to safety, environmental sensitivity and community well-being.

Connectus supports the key messages which form the basis for AT’s overall communications strategy. While these will remain constant during the Project and beyond, they will be supported by other messages that reflect construction activity and/or other influencing factors.

3.2

MAIN CONSIDERATIONS

There are a number of key construction related adverse effects that will need to be carefully managed throughout the life of the Project. The main objective of this CCPCCP is to clearly describe how Connectus will communicate with stakeholders and communities regarding these effects. Adverse effects include: 

noise and vibration, including effects on notable and sensitive receivers



changes to transport, access and parking



change to historic character



air quality



the potential for contaminated material to be encountered during earthworks and soil removal



removal of trees



changes to urban design/public art, and



social and business disruption.

3.3

PRINCIPLES OF ENGAGEMENT

Our principles of engagement are: 

To commit to understanding and addressing the communication needs and expectations of all stakeholders



To present one face to the public and to all stakeholders for the project, and



To be the one point of contact for complaints and enquiries with a coordinated response in accordance with AT agreed procedural guidelines

3.4

Communication and Consultation Plan Doc. No. CRL-PAT-CST-CON-PLN-001282 Revision: 6, Date: 1 June 2016

MANAGEMENT OF ISSUES AND RISK

Connectus will align with AT’s guiding principles for the management of issues and risk as follows: 

Prevention – We will anticipate potential community impacts and manage risk at the source through effective process design, and through clear and open communication between the various participants and the community.



Planning – We will conduct detailed planning for known issues, such as noise, traffic and commuter disruptions, which have specific impacts on particular stakeholders or sectors of the community.



Proactive behaviours – Our approach to community relations is predicated on being proactive and engaging early and actively with people and groups who may be affected by our works. This will assist our team to prevent potential risks from becoming issues and also enable community feedback to inform planning and prevention strategies.



Active listening – We will listen to the community to understand specific issues and concerns and work with stakeholders and community members to develop practical and targeted mitigation measures that address those issues.

3.5

OBJECTIVES

The objective of the CCP is to show how Connectus will develop and deliver: 

a consistent approach with ‘one face’ to stakeholders



informed, engaged communities and effective Community Liaison Groups



collaborative and cohesive stakeholder communications management across all CRL delivery teams



5 STRATEGY 5.1

STRATEGY OVERVIEW: CONVERSATION LOCALLY; BROADCAST TO WIDER AUDIENCE

The communication and consultation programme (pre, during and post construction), aims to engage and inform the primary audience of local residents/businesses, affected/interested stakeholders and Albert Street users (drivers/passengers/pedestrians) about the Project before major construction commences. This will prioritise face-to-face interaction and access to information to ensure affected parties are aware of the project scope and effects, and feel confident in the ability of AT and Connectus to deliver the project with the least possible impact. Once general information on the project has been disseminated, the immediate neighbours will be directly serviced at a detailed level by the appointed contractors. A secondary audience of the wider Auckland population will be serviced through a predominantly online and electronic communications strategy. The key messages for this audience will be the benefits of the project and advanced communication of changes to road function to enable informed choice and to ensure travel-related information is readily available.

5.2

The CRL is AT’s number one project. The overall AT branding will be supported with any constructor brand, which will be used to provide a local and dedicated community face for the appointed construction delivery team. Guidelines for all project collateral will be in line with AT standards to ensure consistency. While the CRL sits with a busy city environment, many of those interested in the project and in particular its effects on the use of city roads may live beyond the project area. The focus will be on electronic communication while recognising that not everyone has access to this medium. Postal or hand delivery methods will be used where the need is identified. Channels will include: 

Website

The project/AT website will be at the heart of the communications approach, with the aim of promoting it as a one-stop-shop for vital and interesting information for both the affected community and a wider audience. It will provide a facility for people to sign up for email updates. Contact details for the CRL including freephone and email will be provided on the Auckland Council website as well as a link to the CRL project site. 

Newsletters

Project newsletters will be produced at least quarterly during construction and generally, sent electronically to the project stakeholder database which will grow as the project proceeds. A sign up facility will be provided on the project website. Printed material is not proposed as part of AT’s commitment to sustainable business practice. 

Open Days

Community open days/showcases or similar are planned annually for wider audiences to find out about the project and meet project staff. Where relevant, these will be coordinated with adjacent council/AT projects. 

Social media

The project will also have a complementary online presence on YouTube, Facebook and Twitter. Presence on social media will reflect AT guidelines. 

Project signage

Located throughout the project area in high traffic areas, signage will be located ahead of the works to promote the project’s information channels including freephone and to advice of progress. All signage to be ‘on brand’ (AT/constructor). Signage may be backed up with people on the spot at key crossings to assist pedestrians. At the construction sites there will be an opportunity for signage to provide additional general information about the project and its benefits. Each site will also have available a copy of this

IDENTIFYING AND COMMUNICATING WITH KEY STAKEHOLDERS

Connectus recognises the range of diversity amongst the stakeholders and their level of interest and involvement. While large segments of the community or particular groups have similar interests and issues, there are also specific individuals and groups with unique or individual needs. This includes those from culturally diverse backgrounds. We commit to fully understanding our stakeholders and the community we are working within, their expectations and communication needs. 5.4.1

Liaising with stakeholder groups

Connectus team members will be responsible for maintaining clear lines of communication between key stakeholders, Connectus and AT. Connectus is required to: 

liaise with key contacts within the stakeholder groups, and



ensure they are kept fully informed about the CRL work that is being carried out.

5.4.2

How we will communicate and consult

To ensure the level of communication with stakeholders and affected community groups is effective, we will use a number of different communication channels. These are described more fully in the ‘Communication Tools’ section of this plan. They include a wide range of engagement methods within the following channels: 

Publications



Telephone and email



Online



Signage



Advertising material



Partnerships



Feedback forms and awareness surveys

5.4.3

Parties affected by the project

There are a large number of stakeholders associated with the CRL enabling works. Details of the different types of stakeholder and the contacts details for each are provided in Appendix A.

City Rail Link – Enabling Works Contract 2 Project #: 2665 Client: Auckland Transport

Communication and Consultation Plan Doc. No. CRL-PAT-CST-CON-PLN-001282 Revision: 6, Date: 1 June 2016

Owners All property owners within the CRL designation have been identified using the Auckland Council rating database. Those adjacent to the construction sites will be identified similarly. Where contact details (other than postal) are unknown to the project, owners will be contacted via post and asked to provide their ongoing details, preferably email and also the contact details of any occupiers of premises they own. They will be provided with the contact details for the CRL including phone, email post and website where they will be able to sign up for information and updates Occupiers/Residents Where information regarding occupiers was not forthcoming, they have been identified by project staff walking the route and noting all occupiers and gathering ongoing contact details, such as email. AT has also sought information and assistance from the relevant business associations and the Auckland Chamber of Commerce and Industry to complement this. During the life of the Project this process will be repeated to capture changes in occupiers. Changes to owners will be captured through the rating database. AT will continue to work with the Chamber of Commerce and from its existing database, understand more about the relevant affected businesses. AT will utilise the business associations and Chamber as conduits for two way information gathering and dispersal to and from members and the project team. Where agreed, AT will use their existing communication channels. They will also provide the project team with a useful touchstone in the business community. Submitters The contact details of stakeholders listed specifically in the project conditions have been identified through their submission contact details or through direct contact. AT has an existing relationship with many of them as a result of the earlier consultation and planning processes. These contact details form the basis of the project’s email database to be used as the prime method of distributing information relating to construction, hours of work, material changes, effects on the road network, changes to street layouts, etc. Others AT has existing email/text/web systems in place to communicate with public transport and road users in Auckland and these will be utilised where the CRL construction impacts on bus and other transport services. Communication and consultation will generally be by email, phone and through the Community Liaison Group established for the enabling works. With organisations, companies and body

corporates communication will be by email, unless meetings or alternative methods are requested. Network Utilities The Albert Street cut and cover works require the relocation of a number of existing network utilities. The affected utilities are owned by the following Network Utility Operators (NUOs): 

Communication and Consultation Plan Doc. No. CRL-PAT-CST-CON-PLN-001282 Revision: 6, Date: 1 June 2016

The proposed cut and cover works and associated network utility relocation and protection works were discussed with the above NUOs through a series of meetings, workshops and communications between June 2015 and March 2016 (with discussions ongoing). AT, Connectus and the NUOs have held a series of collaborative workshops where drawings showing the proposed CRL works have been overlaid with utility assets. Based on the outcome of these discussions the detailed civil design for the cut and cover works, and utility works in particular, has been agreed with the NUOs. The NUOs are satisfied that they can continue to meet their operational requirements during the CRL construction works. The proposed utility works are described in detail in the Construction Environmental Management Plan (CEMP) for the Project (refer Sections 2.2.3, 4.3.1 and Appendix M of the CEMP). Engagement with the NUOs will be ongoing during construction, with the objective of ensuring appropriate protection of utility assets and the ability to meet operational requirements at all times (refer Section 6.2.3 of this CCP). Auckland Council Parks Department Connectus is required to engage Auckland Council Parks Department regarding works to be undertaken to any trees on public land located within the works area, including how trees not being removed, or in close proximity to the surface designation footprint where works are occurring, will be protected. Further detail regarding communication with Auckland Council Parks Department is provided in the Trees and Vegetation DWP.

Heritage New Zealand Pouhere Taonga (HNZPT) For the purposes of applying for the necessary Archaeological Authority for the CRL enabling works, extensive consultation has been undertaken with the HNZPT Regional Archaeologist. Refer also to section 3.10 of the Historic Character Delivery Work Plan. Emergency Services Connectus has a requirement to inform emergency services of any relevant effects prior to the commencement of each construction stage. In particular this should include any changes to traffic movements around the construction site. Emergency services which have been engaged are: 

New Zealand Police



New Zealand Fire Service



St John Ambulance



Mines Rescue Service

5.4.4

Identifying additional people affected by the project

The purpose of the CLG is to: 

Provide a means for delivering regular updates on project progress;



Monitor the effects of the project on the community;



Enable opportunities for concerns and issues to be reported to and responded by AT;



Provide feedback on the development of the CEMP and Delivery Works Plans (each of the DWPs documents comments received from the CLG and how these have been responded to);



Propose potential joint initiatives to AT for the Property Management Strategy regarding interim use of properties and vacant land acquired for the CRL;; and



Conduct an annual survey to inform any changes needed to the CCP to ensure customer satisfaction.

6.1.2

Requirements

As required by the designation and resource consent conditions, representatives of local residents and businesses as well as named parties were invited to join a CLG for the CRL Britomart to Wyndham Street enabling works. The CLG for the enabling works was established in February 2015 and has met regularly throughout the pre-construction process. The CLG’s role is to: 

Ensure that community interests are identified and recognised through the construction process and through feedback on the development of the CEMP, DWPs and management plans for issues such as traffic, access, noise vibration, heritage, social impacts, urban design, landscape, station plans and specifications addressed in the ISCA document regarding community health and wellbeing. The draft CEMP, DWPs and management plans were provided to the CLG for review and presented at a series of CLG meetings during

City Rail Link – Enabling Works Contract 2 Project #: 2665 Client: Auckland Transport

Communication and Consultation Plan Doc. No. CRL-PAT-CST-CON-PLN-001282 Revision: 6, Date: 1 June 2016

Regular hui have been held and will continue to be held at a timing to be agreed which at the date of this plan is monthly with intermittent workshops to cover discrete pieces if work. The Mana whenua forum will continue to address matters such as: 

Urban Design Framework and principles



CEMP and DWPs



Built heritage



Archaeology, including assistance with discovery protocols



Koiwi and artefact discovery



Cultural induction for contractors



Cultural monitoring



Ongoing provision of mātauranga Māori input.

6.2.2.1

Requirements

Connectus is required to: 

Provide AT with information and attend the hui if required,



Follow the protocols for recovery and preservation of artefacts, koi iwi, and other items of interest to Maori discovered during construction. These protocols are identified in the Archaeology Section of the Historic Character Delivery Work Plan; and



Ensure that all staff are given a cultural induction, in accordance with iwi guidelines.

6.2.3

Network Utility Operators

Ongoing communication and consultation will be undertaken with Network Utility Operators (NUOs) during construction as follows. 6.2.3.1

Material changes affecting Network Utilities

Where a material change is identified that affects network utilities, then the following process will be adopted: (i) AT will contact the relevant NUO to organise an on-site meeting in conjunction with Connectus. (ii) If the change is subsequently agreed on site, then the relevant construction and/or as-built drawings will be revised.

City Rail Link – Enabling Works Contract 2 Project #: 2665 Client: Auckland Transport

Communication and Consultation Plan Doc. No. CRL-PAT-CST-CON-PLN-001282 Revision: 6, Date: 1 June 2016

(iii) If the change cannot be agreed on-site, then a meeting will be held between AT, Connectus and the relevant NUO Project Manager to identify a mutually agreeable outcome. 6.2.3.2

Section 176(1)(b) RMA Approvals

(i) The relevant NUO will identify the scope of work required to be undertaken, including location and timing. (ii) The AT CRL Utilities Manager and Connectus will meet with the relevant NUO Project Manager to discuss the scope of work, programming, and physical interface with the CRL construction works. Based on this discussion, AT will determine whether or not the proposed utility works would ‘prevent or hinder’ construction of the CRL (and whether AT is able to give written consent to the utility works). Wherever possible, a mutually agreed ‘work plan’ will be developed that allows necessary utility works to proceed in a way that does not hinder construction of the CRL (particularly in the case of maintenance and urgent repair works). 6.2.3.3

Supplementary Authorisations

(i) Depending on the circumstances, the relevant NUO or AT will identify what authorisations are required. (ii) If the proposed utility works are not related to the CRL project, then the NUO will be responsible for obtaining any necessary authorisations (including resource consents where required). (iii) If the utility works are required to facilitate construction of the CRL project, then the AT CRL Utilities Manager and Connectus will meet with the relevant NUO Project Manager to identify an appropriate design and construction methodology for the works and confirm the authorisations required. AT will be responsible for obtaining any necessary resource consents. 6.2.3.4

Inspection and final approval of works by Network Utility Operators

(i) Upcoming inspection, testing, and commissioning works will be identified at weekly meetings between AT, Connectus and the NUOs. (ii) Connectus will arrange necessary site inspections directly with the relevant NUO Project Manager. (iii) If the inspection passes, then the NUO will sign off the work package. (iv) If the inspection fails, then the AT CRL Utilities Manager (or delegate) and Connectus will work together to identify the appropriate remedial action and a re-inspection will be organised with the NUO. 6.2.3.5

Ongoing Communication and Consultation

During the utilities phase of CRL construction works there will be regular on-site liaison between Connectus and the NUOs. This will generally be undertaken by way of ‘tool box’ meetings at the start of each day, complemented by weekly meetings between AT, Connectus and the NUOs. The purpose of the weekly meetings is to plan in greater detail for upcoming utility works in conjunction with other aspects of the CRL construction works – e.g. temporary traffic management. 6.2.3.6

Review of Management Plans

The CEMP and Delivery Work Plans for the CRL Albert Street cut and cover works will be reviewed at least annually, or as a result of a material change to the Project, or to address unforeseen adverse effects arising from construction or unresolved complaints. AT will inform the NUOs of any such reviews, and will actively engage with the NUOs where a material change to the Project has implications for network utilities or the review is required in order to address unforeseen effects or unresolved complaints relating to the utilities aspect of the Project.

6.2.4

Communication and Consultation Plan Doc. No. CRL-PAT-CST-CON-PLN-001282 Revision: 6, Date: 1 June 2016

Coordinating projects

A high degree of coordination is required with various other projects that will be undertaken in the downtown area at the same time as construction of the CRL enabling works. AT will lead the coordination process (with assistance from Connectus) for these projects to minimise adverse effects and maximise efficiencies. 6.2.4.1

Responsibilities

Connectus is responsible for the integration of communications between the various projects to ensure that a culture of ‘no surprises’ exists between Connectus and AT’s CRL team AT is responsible for liaising with Auckland Council and its other Council Controlled Organisations (CCOs), and private sector developers in relation to these other projects. This will ensure there is a common face to the public about the broader redevelopment of Auckland’s Central Business District. At a political level oversight is provided by the Council’s Auckland City Centre Advisory Board. This has a number of entities represented on it. Its mandate for oversight includes: 

City Rail Link



Light Rail



The AT Metro Bus Network



Cycleways



Public Open Spaces



Ports of Auckland

Section 3.7 of the Transport, Access and Parking Delivery Work Plan identifies the public and private sector projects that will coincide with construction of the CRL enabling works. 6.2.5

Street Trees

Connectus has consulted Auckland Council Parks Department during the development of the Trees and Vegetation DWP, particularly in relation to the removal of street trees and protection of retained street trees. 6.2.5.1

Requirements

Connectus is required to: 

Engage Auckland Council Parks Department and iwi regarding mitigation planting



Provide Documentation of the input from the Auckland Council Parks Department with regard to tree species / vegetation selection, tree pit construction and positioning of replacement trees.

6.2.6

Emergency Services

Connectus has undertaken ongoing consultation with Fire, Police and Ambulance (in particular fire service) regarding their specific operational requirements in relation to the CRL project. As a result of this the following measures have been adopted: 1. An Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) (specialised signage with on demand flashing lights) and management plan developed to enable clearance of the service lanes to allow contra-flow use of the road network by fire tenders in an emergency.

City Rail Link – Enabling Works Contract 2 Project #: 2665 Client: Auckland Transport

Communication and Consultation Plan Doc. No. CRL-PAT-CST-CON-PLN-001282 Revision: 6, Date: 1 June 2016

2. The service lane has been widened and spaced for turning into side roads (Mills Lane and Swanson Street East), eased to allow for large fire tenders and the deployment of outrigger arms for aerial appliances. 3. The structural design of the general traffic and construction decks has been adjusted to allow for the point loads of the aerial appliance outriggers. Similarly, a reinforced concrete beam will be installed in the footpaths on both sides of Albert Street to allow for outrigger point loads as well. The major aspects of these requirements are not to interfere with the scene of an accident involving serious harm other than to prevent further harm; and provide assistance to the emergency services at their direction. Further details for emergency service procedures and movements have been established in coordination with emergency services (outlined in 4.19.2 of the TAP DWP). 6.2.6.1

Requirements

Connectus is required to: 

Undertake a test of the emergency response plan, which will be held early during the appropriate stage and Fire and other emergency services advised of on-going changes to traffic layout and works progression through regular liaison.



Communicate the traffic management procedure which is to be implemented during the installation phases and ensure it has been arranged to allow for emergency access afterhours and will allow for emergency co-ordination after construction hours.

6.2.7

Heritage

Communication and consultation with key stakeholders has been undertaken in relation to the development of the Historic Character DWP and protocols which will be implemented in relation to effects on heritage and archaeology. In particular the following stakeholders have been engaged: 

HNZPT



AC Heritage Unit



Mana Whenua



CLG.

6.2.7.1

Requirements

Connectus is required to: 

7 EVALUATION 7.1

CUSTOMER SATISFACTION

Annual surveys will be carried out within the CLG and wider affected community by a suitably qualified person and the results used to inform any changes needed to this CCPCCP to ensure customer satisfaction. Feedback through the CLGCLG will also be useful in determining community awareness and perspectives. This will also meet ISCA requirements for the purposes of obtaining an Infrastructure Sustainability (IS) Rating for the Project. Where the communications and stakeholder team has fielded a complaint, a follow-up call will be actioned one month after the complaint has been closed out, and feedback recorded in the project communications database. Annual audits and/or community surveys will be undertaken to review communication with the community. These will meet requirements under ISCA.

7.2

PERFORMANCE MONITORING

The communications team will work within a six-nine month framework, which reflects the Project's overall goals and current issues. This CCPCCP will be reviewed six monthly and updated if required. Any updated CCPCCP will be provided to the key contacts representing AT and Connectus venture and made available at construction site offices. The communications team will meet fortnightly to monitor progress against this framework and respond to any new issues that arise. Twice-yearly planning days will be held to plan these six month strategies, which will be approved by the AT CRL Enabling Works Construction Manager before implementation.

7.3

EVALUATING COMMUNICATIONS PERFORMANCE

Communications performance will be evaluated across a number of key performance indicators, including by carrying out stakeholder surveys and reviewing feedback from the CLGCLG. 7.3.1

Requirements

Connectus is required to evaluate communications performance by: 

Conducting stakeholder surveys at intervals to be agreed with AT. These will gauge the surrounding communities’ level of satisfaction;



Receiving feedback through the CLG.LG This will also be useful in determining levels of community satisfaction; and



Holding weekly work in progress meetings with the AT CRL Enabling Works Construction ManagerProject Manager. During these meetings stakeholder satisfaction and upcoming work will be reviewed to identify communication requirements. Any issues which arise which may be potentially contentious or affect AT’s interest should be communicated to the Project Manager immediately.

The location of the loading platform is directly outside the front doors of the Stamford plaza/Stamford residencies. Please consider moving it somewhere else.

The platforms have been located to maximise efficiency of the excavation and to avoid existing utilities. The platforms are not located directly in front of Stamford. Change to the CEMP: The location drawing in the plan will be made clearer. Update: changes to the construction methodology (Secton 2.2 of this CEMP) removes the need for the platforms in question. A continuous traffic deck replaces the previous methodology

The complaints section of the CEMP does not list the response times the project has committed to when dealing with complaints.

Complaints and response times are dealt with in the Communications Plan prepared by Auckland Transport.

The project needs to ensure that hoardings / security fences constructed to secure the project do not inadvertently provide access for criminals into adjacent buildings

Connectus have noted the concern and will aim to design it out. It will also be added as an inspection item on the weekly environmental checklist.

No change proposed to the CEMP.

General Comments

Identification of the risks identified by the projects risk register and how these are to be tied into the DWPs or the CEMP

Section 3.2 - The information contained in the register provides a guide for the implementation of environmental management activities, controls and monitoring, thus minimising environmental impacts. 3.2.1 - The Environment and Sustainability Manager (ESM) (roles and responsibilities are defined in Section 4.1 of this CEMP) is required to maintain and review environmental risks within the register. The ESM is required to update the Project CEMP and associated DWPs of other management plans to reflect any updates which may arise as a result of the review of the register.

General Comments

Will the Environmental and sustainability manager be required to be on site during night works, will there be an on call person to cover any environmental issues outside the regular work hours

The E & S Manager will not be required to be on site during night works, but will ensure that the onsite supervisory staff are suitably briefed. He will be on call if any issues arise.

Add a section to identify and set out how to deal with non-DWP matters as per condition 19.5

Section 1.2.1 - Where specific requirements and objectives are not addressed by the sub-plans, the CEMP includes measures to give effect to these.

This information will be specified in the Emergency Response Plan. Section 4.3.19.1 updated with emergency contact numbers (during day/night works);

2.5.2Security, safety and public safety

How will disabled pedestrians be accommodated, particularly the blind and those in wheel chairs

The is currently not wheel chair access or other disability access provided during works.

2.5.3 Graffiti and litter

Weekly inspection for litter and graffiti will make it difficult to achieve the 48 hour graffiti clearance goal stated.

Section 2.5.3 - Connectus will target painting over graffiti within 48 hours of identifying the problem (although this may take longer if it requires working at height).

2.5.4 returning the site to public use

Will this be returned to it's current state or is there a plan for the area post construction. Please reference if so

Section 2.5.4 - At the completion of construction, Connectus will return the site to AT for return to public use. Site remediation will be detailed in the Urban Design DWP which will be prepared as part of a subsequent Outline Plan process. Further detail is provided in Section 4.3.16 of this CEMP.

The following comments are based solely on the information within the CEMP provided, which did not include the DWPS or risk register. For consistency these general comments apply to all the proposed DWPs, some sections may already cover some of them. However I believe for consistency in the CEMP that these sections need to be modified to reflect these general changes and the specifics set out below

N/A

What will the regular interval be for review of the risk register

"The risk register will be reviewed as part on Connectus monthly review and reporting cycle. The review will be conducted by the Project Director and senior project staff, and will be directed at identifying the current top 10 risks to be managed in the next period."

3.2.1 Review and register

Comment

Resolution

Section 3.2.1 - Register will be reviewed prior to the commencement of construction activities (taking into account finalised construction methodologies), at regular intervals (to be undertaken as part of the Project Monthly Report) and when there is a new or changed activity, equipment or location. Changes to legislative requirements may also drive Risk Register reviews.

Resolution

3.2.1 Review and register

Suggest that changes to the risk scores are made collaboratively between the ESM and cut and cover manager rather than separately

Accepted - The ESM, with the assistance of environmental and technical experts (including but not limited to the Cut and Cover Tunnel Manager, Project Director and management team), will determine whether the CEMP and sub-plans require revision to reflect the revised risk assessment.

3.2.1 Review and register

How will cumulative effects that cross the DWPs be identified assessed and addressed in the CEMP - what are these and what occurs if there is a conflict in the DWP requirements

As per section 3.3 methods to address cumulative effects are outlined for specific activities within the suite of DWPs which have been developed in conjunction

3.4.1 National legal requirements and regulations

What parts of the listed legislation are applicable, how will they be assessed and complied with. Will these be linked to the DWPs, if so which ones and how. Identifying these at the commencement of the project leaves open the risk that additional approvals will be required and could hold up the works

3.4.1 - Connectus will comply with all relevant legislation and will employ best practice environmental management procedures.

3.4.3 consents

Connectus has stated they will ensure compliance with national legislation. However, at is responsible for additional resource consents/OPW during the construction period. This may lead to confusion in responsibility and should be clarified

Section 3.4.3 - AT will be responsible for obtaining any additional consents required during construction. However, Connectus has a responsibility to identify and communicate any changes to the scope of works during construction which may have any additional consent requirements.

4.1.2 specific roles and responsibilities

The ESM is noted as being responsible for preparing the sub plans, does this refer to the DWPs? If so it is the reviewers understanding that these should be produced by the relevant specialists

4.1.2.6 ESM and team

How will the team provide AT with a consistent report on environmental performance incidents and monitoring for comparison of performance between the contracts

Section 5.1 - The ESM is also responsible for reporting Environmental Monitoring results to AT with respect to any issues which may be relevant to AT as the requiring authority and consent holder.

4.2 environmental training and induction

Will there be record of and easy identification of those inducted to site used so that anyone not inducted to site can be identified?

Section 4.2.2 - Attendance records of all training and briefing sessions will be maintained in accordance with the Project Training Plan.

4.3 Operational procedures

Outline the process and responsibility for variations to DWPS, or the CEMP

Detailed in 3.4.3 and Table 9 AT will be responsible for obtaining any additional consents required during construction. However, Connectus has a responsibility to identify and communicate any changes to the scope of works during construction which may have any additional consent requirements.

4.3 Operational procedures

How will any conflict between the consent, the CEMP and the DWPs be resolved

As above. The ESM will manage this process as described in Section 5.7.1

4.3 Operational procedures

The CEMP should cover how sub-contractors activities are reported to the ESM and how site specific activities are dealt with if not covered by the DWP

As above. The ESM will manage this process as described in Section 5.7.1

4.3 Operational procedures

Who will be responsible for bringing in specialists for the DWPS, will they be on site at all times, who do they report to? Will their recommendations require approval by the project

This is outlined ins each of the respective DWPs

4.3 Operational procedures

Include a sub-plan for implementing iwi involvement, key aspects that would affect those aspects relevant to mana whenua issues such as blessings for key project points, input into visual designs/anti-graffiti murals etc.

1 INTRODUCTION Travel Planning is an internationally recognised process where a workplace, working in conjunction with the Council, implements and promotes safer and more sustainable travel options for its staff. Travel plan measures help communicate opportunities for staff to use sustainable travel modes safely, along with incentives to do so. The City Rail Link (CRL) Enabling Works Contract 2 (C2) Separable Portion 1 (SP1) piling and tunnel works site on Albert Street in Auckland is the workplace site of this travel plan document. The main work activities within this site are as follows: -

Piling and tunnel construction works at in Albert Street between and including the intersections of Customs Street and Wyndham Street; and

Two construction support sites (site compounds) on: Lower Albert Street and Albert Street just south of Customs Street; Albert Street between Wyndham Street and Kingston Street.

The CRL C2 SP1 work site has a current estimated 2.5 year timeframe, between May 2016 and October 2018... During this time there is anticipated to be between 20 and 70 total staff on site at any one time, with up to 30 being office based engineering or administration staff. The CRL NOR Designation Conditions 20.1 (d)1 requires the following: “A Travel Management Plan for each construction site outlining onsite car parking management and methods for encouraging travel to the site using forms of transport other than private vehicle to assist in mitigating localised traffic effects.” To meet this condition, this document outlines a travel plan for the CRL C2 SP1 work site. Through the development and implementation of the measures within this travel plan it is envisaged that the workplace staff will strive towards using sustainable modes of travel and thereby alleviating congestion around the construction areas of Auckland City Centre. It should be noted that this travel plan has been structured to generally follow Auckland Transport’s (AT) workplace travel plan template.

Condition 20.1 (d) Page 6

Connectus Project #: 2665 Client: Auckland Transport

Workforce Travel Plan Doc. No. CRL-PAT-ENV-CON-PLN-001486 Revision: 1, Date: 26 November2015

2 OBJECTIVES The development and implementation of this travel plan is both a requirement of the consent conditions, and is recommended practice by Auckland Transportâ€™s (AT) Travel Demand team. 2

This travel plan is consistent with the intent of the wider CBD TDM Plan being undertaken by the Travel Demand team to support the CRL project and advise the overall consent outcome of managing and mitigating traffic congestion. The main purpose of the plan is to minimise the use of private cars by staff travelling to and from the site during construction works, to assist with efficient traffic management. The following objectives are therefore key to the success of the travel plan: 1. To reduce vehicle congestion around the site, and provide leadership by example to the CBD community in this regard 2. To facilitate the uptake of sustainable travel modes by staff travelling to/from the site 3. To ensure the safety of staff travel within the site proximity 4. To encourage staff to embed physical activity into their commute These objectives are inter-linked, as reducing vehicle movements around the site has safety benefits (through reduced conflict potential), wider environmental benefits (through reduced emissions), along with health benefits for staff (through increased physical activity, especially for office staff). The benefits of implementing travel plan measures can also include improved site management and efficiency; for example needing to provide less commuter car parks on site frees up space for other activities or greater storage capacity, and reduced site congestion will lead to fewer business trip delays. Reduced congestion around the site will improve local accessibility for the general public. Reducing the number of car trips coming into the city centre will contribute to AT meeting their TDM Plan targets.

ATâ€™s draft Travel Demand Management (TDM) Plan. This forms part of measures to reduce number of daily vehicle trips coming into Auckland City Centre by 4,000, to enable the current network functionality within the CBD to be maintained during construction works disruption. Page 7

3 SITE TRAVEL INFORMATION 3.1

WORKING HOURS

The CRL C2 SP1 work site will operate on standard site working hours, Mondays to Saturdays. The majority of office staff and engineers will be working between 7/8am and 5/6pm (but could be up to 8pm, in the site office). The general workforce will be working between 7am and 4/5pm on weekdays with a potentially earlier finish on Saturdays.

3.2

PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE

Construction support sites (site compounds) primarily provide for: -

Site offices

Material / spoil storage, set down and handling

Staff facilities (e.g. briefing and rest areas, OSH spaces including showers and first aid, toilets)

Minor trades access and parking

They may also provide for staff or visitor parking if space permits. Figure 1 provides an overall site layout plan, as per Connectus’ tender. More detailed site compound layout plans are provided in Appendix B. Figure 1 Site layout (as per Connectus’ tender)

There is anticipated to be the following yards offices and compounds3: 1. CPO Office: A portion of Level 1 of the CPO building, in which the majority of the administrative and management staff will be located, as well as meeting rooms. 2. Northern Compound: Located on Lower Albert Street eastern side and Customs Street north side. This will be the main office close to the site works, which will accommodate the C&C Tunnel Manager, Superintendent, Safety Representatives, and the majority of the Engineering and Supervisory Staff. It will also incorporate a workshop and storage area, as well as a number of lunchrooms and the main ablutions facilities on site. 3. Portable Lunch Room: A 6x3 lunch room, small generator and 2 portable single toilets will be relocated to various places throughout the project as required. Areas may include the South – East corner of the Customs Street intersection, and the Western side of Albert Street just opposite Stamford Plaza. In the final 12 Months of the project, these offices may be positioned in the centre of Albert Street once the trench has been backfilled. 4. Southern Compound: Albert Street between Wyndham Street and Kingston Street. This compound will house only a handful of staff, a lunch room and a small ablutions facility. The 3

Subject to further discussion between AT, Connectus and Precinct Page 8

Connectus Project #: 2665 Client: Auckland Transport

Workforce Travel Plan Doc. No. CRL-PAT-ENV-CON-PLN-001486 Revision: 1, Date: 26 November2015

main purpose of this area is laydown storage of items that are too large to be delivered into the Northern Site Office and Workshop Compound. 5. Offsite Laydown Yard: Located on the corner of Boston Road and Normanby Road, this area will be used for the longer term storage of materials and equipment for which there is insufficient room on site, such as bulk deliveries of fabricated steelwork and pile reinforcing cages. 6. 28 Car parking spaces will be provided by AT at the Downtown Shopping Centre Carpark, on Customs Street West.

Table 2 Southern Compound facilities Facility

The Southern Compound will only contain plant, machinery and sufficient buildings to support construction activities. Connectus supports the idea of providing end of trip facilities designed to encourage workers to cycle/walk to work. Connectus would like to provide locker rooms, shower facilities and bicycle storage racks. Unfortunately there is insufficient room in either the Northern or Southern Compound Areas to house these, so Connectus will discuss with AT whether room can be made available at the CPO building. If no room can be made available at CPO, these facilities will not be provided.

Workforce Travel Plan Doc. No. CRL-PAT-ENV-CON-PLN-001486 Revision: 1, Date: 26 November2015

ACCESSIBILITY

As staff have not yet been recruited for the construction works, staff home locations are not known. For this travel plan it has therefore been assumed that staff will be travelling into the site from all areas around Auckland. Once staff home locations are known, the travel plan action plan can be tailored accordingly. Census 2013 ‘main means of travel to work’ data along with 2015 traffic survey data4 has been assessed to gain an indication of the mode split anticipated by staff working at the site. Table 3 details percentage estimates from this analysis. Table 3 Census mode of travel data

Sustainable transport mode access to the work site is good due to the central city location, however the Construction workforce typically live significant distances from the CBD and start work several hours earlier than a typical CBD worker, therefore it is anticipated that the mode split estimates will be halfway between the reflect the Census data for workers from CBD workers column and the Census data for workers living in the Auckland Region column. These percentages have been used to inform mode split targets for this travel plan. A reasonable walking catchment covers the central city residential areas, along with the closer suburbs of Newmarket, Ponsonby and Newton. Temporary workers are most likely to be accommodated in central city apartments/hotels, from which access to the site would be only a short walk. Cycling access to the site is improving from Auckland Isthmus residential areas. For example, Grafton Gully cycleway now connects the North-western Cycleway through motorway and urban areas to Beach Road. This will soon be extended to Britomart and Quay Street, creating an almost entirely offroad cycle route from Te Atatu to the city centre and waterfront in conjunction with the Nelson Street cycleway currently under construction or in detailed design. These projects are part of the wider Auckland Cycle Network programme, which is improving Auckland’s cycling connections. The work site has excellent accessibility by bus, train and ferry services from all areas of Auckland. The site is only 2 minutes’ walk from Britomart train station and bus terminal and the ferry terminals. In addition, the regional bus service terminal at Sky City is only 10 minutes’ walk southwest of the site.

The NOR designation conditions include items to be provided for by the temporary works including: the maintenance of pedestrian access at all times and crossing points at key locations; prioritising pedestrian and bus movements at intersections; relocating bus stops and taxi stands; and continuous monitoring. These conditions, amongst others, aim to reduce congestion on the network and enable efficient work site access by all modes.

4 MANAGEMENT 4.1

MANAGEMENT STRUCTURE

The CRL C2 Project Director, Chris Powell, will have overall responsibility to authorise and oversee the implementation and monitoring of travel management measures. To do this, Hugh will be supported by a travel working group, along with being responsible for liaising with other CRL site managers on any CRL wide travel initiatives. The proposed working group would include the following members and roles: -

Connectus Project Director, Chris Powell

Connectus Cut and Cover Tunnel Manager

Connectus Pipejack Manager

Connectus Cut and Cover Tunnel Superintendent

Connectus Safety Manager

Sue Philbin (AT) – CRL TDM Plan Manager

Kate Brill (AT) – CBD Workplace Travel Plan Co-ordinator

This group will be responsible for driving sustainable travel and safety measures, reporting quarterly to management.

4.2

PARKING MANAGEMENT

28 Car parks will be provided at the Downtown Carpark. No charges will be made for these car parks and they will not be accessible by the general public. Management of the assignment of the car parks will be at the Project Director’s discretion. However, Connectus anticipate that the car parks will be allocated as follows: -

10 car parks for senior office staff/managers

5 car parks for visitors (predominantly site vehicles)

8 car parks for minor trades (assigned at discretion of Superintendent and Construction Manager, based on those needing to bring tools onto the site)

Permanent office based or field staff will generally not be provided a car parking space in line with the CBD environment and leadership principles to the wider community.

4.3

STAFF INDUCEMENTS

During the staff recruitment process, work site travel information will be included in the contract pack. This is discussed in more detail in the measures section. Travel advice will be provided as an integral part of the staff health & safety site induction process. This will be in the form of a site access information sheet, and a tour of the active travel facilities and allocation of personal lockers as appropriate. See Section 5.2.2 for AT incentives to use public transport.

5 TRAVEL MODE MEASURES 5.1

INTRODUCTION

The AT Commute5 programme gives Auckland workplaces the information and planning tools to help staff find more options for commuting to work. This programme, along with the draft CRL TDM Plan activities programme, has been used as the structure of this travel plan action plan, providing support to the measures and ensuring consistency across CBD workplace travel planning activities. This section provides details of the travel plan measures. These are summarised, along with timescales and delivery responsibilities in the appended Action Plan. The measures will be implemented to encourage reduced vehicle trips. This will assist with the wider target of removing 4,000 vehicle trips coming into the city centre daily to alleviate congestion issues caused by construction network disruption. This target will aid in maintaining the current network functionality within the CBD.

5.2

ACTIVE MODES

This section of the action plan includes means by which active travel (cycling and walking) will be promoted and encouraged by staff. These measures include both promotional and facilities measures and are linked with the Walking and Cycling AT Commute packages. 5.2.1

Facilities

Connectus supports the idea of providing end of trip facilities designed to encourage workers to cycle/walk to work, if AT is able to provide sufficient area at the CPO building, Connectus will provide locker rooms, shower facilities and bicycle storage racks. These end of trip facilities will enable staff to cycle/run to work, or do physical activity during their lunch break.  Two showers in the ablution building in the Northern Compound. (The showers will have the primary purpose for decontamination wash-down, but a secondary role as end of trip facilities for staff to use after physical activity including cycling/running to work.)  Bike rack at the Northern Compound which will be secure.  Lockers to enable staff to store personal gear – this could be combined with lockers for work gear, with locker keys / keycodes allocated during the staff induction process. Standalone lockers could be hired for the duration of the project and incorporated into the rest and lunch facilities. 5.2.2

Promotion & Incentives

Promotion of walking and cycling through health and wellbeing campaigns, and incentives for staff to use these modes include the following. The majority of these measures are supported by AT’s TDM team and therefore resources are available at no cost from the AT CBD workplace travel plan coordinator. 5

 Provide cycle maps (e.g. https://at.govt.nz/cycling-walking/auckland-cycle-run-walkway-maps/  Hold walk/cycle to work events, in line with national walk/cycle to work month (February) and AT’s proposed “Walk in to work out” (February) and “Love to Ride” (March) campaigns.  Offer cycle training courses and/or trial bike hire scheme to staff, through AT programmes.

5.3

PUBLIC TRANSPORT

The following measures are means by which public transport measures will be promoted and encouraged by those using the work site: 6

 Incentivise use of public transport through offering the AT ‘Give it a go’ pass. This pass is offered to drivers who are travelling in the peak period (7-9am). The AT Commute team calculate the cost of each applicant’s commute by public transport and a HOP card is credited with two weeks funds for the applicant to trial public transport for free. The applicant will also receive journey planning advice. This is the current ‘Give it a go’ pass methodology and may change to a two week concession pass approach, however it will still provide an incentive for staff to trial public transport.  Promotion of AT online journey planner (https://at.govt.nz/bus-train-ferry/journey-planner/) and online public timetable links (https://at.govt.nz/bus-train-ferry/timetables/)  Information on how to access the site using public transport – information packs for staff for inclusion in induction, and information sheet for visitors.

5.4

CAR POOLING

5.4.1

Car Pooling

Car pooling is a good option for staff to share the cost of travelling to work by car, especially if public transport is not a feasible option. AT supports carpooling as an alternative transport option and has established priority lanes, park and ride facilities (at Albany Bus Station, Birkenhead Ferry Terminal and Half Moon Bay Ferry Terminal) and transit lanes across Auckland for car poolers to use. AT provides a free, secure online car pool matching service:

Let’s Carpool is open to individuals and registration is free. It enables staff to find car pool matches and choose whether to car pool on a single occasion or regularly. AT also offers workplaces the option of setting up dedicated schemes to encourage staff to register. In this instance the staff numbers are not necessarily high enough to warrant this, however, this could be an option across all CRL construction sites. Therefore the following measures can be provided for:  Promote staff registration on AT’s Let’s Carpool website to find car pool matches. This can be done in conjunction with the wider AT’s city centre car pooling campaigns.  Set up a Let’s Carpool scheme for all CRL construction site staff.

Workforce Travel Plan Doc. No. CRL-PAT-ENV-CON-PLN-001486 Revision: 1, Date: 26 November2015

ORGANISATIONAL MEASURES

The following measures will be implemented on site to encourage reduced vehicle trips. Unfortunately due to the nature of the construction site, flexitime / working from home and teleconferencing / videoconferencing will not be available as staff will be required on site full time. 5.5.1

Logistics

Large construction sites create large vehicle traffic flows. To reduce the impact of these flows deliveries to the site will be consolidated. Further construction traffic vehicle trips will be removed through logistics planning and potential use of a centralised set down area / staging compound away from the main works.  Consolidate material deliveries: Create a plan to manage/co-ordinate site deliveries.  Where possible and construction demands allow, construction truck and other vehicle movements will be undertaken in the daytime inter-peak period rather than during the morning and evening peak traffic periods (which are permitted by consent conditions). 5.5.2

Promotion

Promotional measures have already been mentioned in previous sections, but will also be listed as individual measures here to provide further details. These measures are multi-modal and will ensure all sustainable travel mode options are considered based on applicability.  Staff induction travel briefing: An information pack on travel options for staff starting work at the work site, as part of the safety briefing.  Sustainable travel expo: AT led expo on site in a communal area at various significant stages of construction / change of workforce. This will involve an information stand and AT advisors on standby to help staff with travel queries. This could be carried out in conjunction with the expos at nearby tower blocks, through AT’s CRL TDM Plan.

5.6

COMMUNICATIONS

Transport communications will be provided to staff through information provision at interviews/with contracts, during the staff induction process, and through promotional events/expos. All staff will be given a travel information pack at their induction which will include information on the work site’s travel policy, walking and cycling facilities, local public transport services and car pool options and parking regulations. This will be tailored in accordance with work site security. Any work site information provided to staff through an intranet will provide an opportunity to post travel links (journey planner etc.). Visitors and suppliers will be provided with a site travel access information sheet, providing multimodal options and noting construction access restriction time periods; and advised of upcoming changes to traffic conditions and controls allowing planning around periods of expected congestion.

Workforce Travel Plan Doc. No. CRL-PAT-ENV-CON-PLN-001486 Revision: 1, Date: 26 November2015

6 EXPECTED OUTCOMES The expected outcomes resulting from the implementation of the above measures are both quantitative and qualitative, and are shown as targets within the Action Plan (appended). The quantitative mode split targets have been informed by Census 2013 ‘main mode of travel to work’ data and 2015 traffic survey data, as explained in Chapter 3. Sustainable transport mode access to the work site is good due to the central city location, therefore it is anticipated that the mode split achievable will reflect this accordingly. Staff travel inductions will be 100% achievable, by being embedded into the site safety induction process. And any sustainable travel expos should reach at least half of the staff at a given time. As a result of reaching the suggested targets, the expected number of vehicle trips coming into the site on a typical weekday morning would be in the order of 40, excluding deliveries. However, this is a rough estimate and more accurate traffic impact assessments are included in the Traffic Management Plan.

7 MONITORING & REVIEW The Action Plan (see Appendix A) details responsibilities and timeframes for the implementation of the measures. This includes the site manager and facilities manager, supported by AT’s CBD travel plan co-ordinator. The Action Plan is also a reference list on which to base travel monitoring and reviews during the workplace duration, to comply with consent conditions and notices of requirement. Monitoring of the outcomes of the travel plan, in relation to the targets, will be carried out bi-annually due to the transient nature of the size of the workforce. It is suggested that monitoring be carried out by three methods to obtain the data required: 

Staff travel survey: A survey of staff to determine their main mode of travel to work and reason for doing so. This will be done through a quick online survey, or alternatively a simple tick box approach on a site entry sign-in sheet. AT’s Travel Demand team can provide assistance with this survey through the Commute programme, annually during October/November.



Facilities survey: An administrator will carry out a quick assessment of usage of active travel end of trip facilities, and staff inductions check.



Traffic survey: A survey of number of vehicles entering the site in the morning across a week. This is likely to be undertaken in conjunction with traffic surveys required for the wider Traffic Management Plan.

1 INTRODUCTION The City Rail Link (CRL) project comprises the construction, operation and maintenance of a 3.4 km underground passenger railway, running between Britomart Station and the North Auckland Rail Line in the vicinity of Mt Eden station. The works relating to this Emergency Spill Response Plan (ESRP) constitute part of the enabling works for the CRL. The works (the Project) involve the construction of twin rail tunnels within the Albert Street road corridor from Customs Street West to Wyndham Street. The tunnels will be constructed using a staged cut and cover method and are expected to take 33 months to complete. Figure 1 outlines the extent of works for the Project. This ESRP has been prepared by AECOM New Zealand Limited (AECOM) and forms part of the Construction Environmental Management Plan (CEMP) for the Project. The ESRP specifically relates to conditions 52 and 96 of the resource consent conditions, R/REG/2014/5430 and 5436, respectively).

2 PROJECT DESCRIPTION This section presents a summary of the Project in relation to the matters required to be addressed by the ESRP. A detailed description of the construction works is provided in the Project CEMP.

2.1

SUMMARY OF METHODOLOGY

The Project involves a staged cut and cover method to construct two parallel rail tunnels within the Albert Street road corridor between Customs Street and Wyndham Street. The total length of the tunnel for the Project will be 340m. A number of utilities are required to be removed, relocated, or supported during construction. Generally, the Project works will consist of: 1.

Utilities relocation and exposure

Piling and capping beam and deck construction within Albert Street

Piling and road deck construction within the Customs Street Intersection

Trench Excavation, including using shotcrete and Rock Dowelling

Construction and waterproofing of the rail tunnels

Backfilling of the trench, including Pile Cap Demolition and construction of the new road pavement

A range of supporting activities will also occur in the Project Construction Support Areas (CSA) 4, 5 and 6. Further detail on these activities is provided in the Project ITA EMP. The locations of the CSAs are shown in Appendix A of this ESRP. Chemical treatment will be required to assist with flocculation and settlement of sediment entrained in surface water runoff and groundwater on the site. The location of water treatment devices are identified in the Project ESCP (Appendix I of the Project CEMP). Stormwater from the Project construction areas will be treated as per the Project ESCP and runoff from the CSAâ€™s will be managed as set out in the Project ITA EMP.

3 SITE ACTIVITIES 3.1

SITE DESCRIPTION

The Project comprises Active Construction Zones (ACZ) D and E (Figure 2), which were identified during the CRL Britomart to Wyndham enabling works consenting process to delineate construction methodology for different work areas. Additionally a range of supporting activities will occur in the Project CSAs. Drawings in Appendix A show the proposed site layout across the Project area, including the location of hazardous substance storage, spill kits, equipment storage and stockpile areas within CSA 4/5 and CSA 6. Spillages within the ACZs will be managed and cleaned up on site and any contamination of rain water or groundwater within the trench will be treated as per the ESCP prior to release or disposal. Spillages within the CSAs will be managed and controlled within the CSA and spill risk will be managed through structural and procedural controls. In the event that a spill incident exceeds these controls, it will be managed in accordance with the provisions of this ESRP. Figure 2 Location of ACZs D and E

3.2

HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES

Hazardous substances will be kept on site within specified hazardous substances storage areas within the CSAs. These areas will be bunded and hazardous substances kept in secure containers. A list of all hazardous substances kept on site during the construction phase will be maintained in the project Hazardous Substances Register (CRL-PAT-HSE-CON-REG-001042). An indicative list is included in Table 2, which provides material types and estimated maximum quantities. Safety Data Sheets (SDS) for each hazardous substance will be maintained on site in the following locations: ď‚ˇ

A full set at the project office

ď‚ˇ

A sub-set at each storage location relevant to the specific materials being stored

Sections 4.1 to 4.5 of this ESRP outline the relevant spill response procedures for the different spill size/type. Figure 3 provides a graphical representation of these procedures.

4.1

SMALL SPILLS OF LESS THAN 20L

Small spills have been defined as those less than 20L since this is the volume which triggers contact through the Auckland Council Pollution Hotline. Spills of this volume are deemed “insignificant” incidents in accordance with Table 11 of the Project CEMP, provided that they are contained within established controls and are not released from site. They will be managed on site as set out below: 

Based on visual inspection from a safe distance, estimate volume of spill and identify substance. If access is available protect any nearby drains to prevent spill from entering.

Page 15

Connectus Project #: 2665 Client: Auckland Transport

Emergency Spill Response Plan Doc. No. CRL-PAT-HSE-CON-PLN-001040 Revision: 04, Date: 21 March 2016



Refer to SDS and determine if it is safe to contain and clean up without specialist help. If it is safe to do so put on appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), stop the spill if possible and use on site spill kit to contain and clean up spillage.



Contain the spill using sand bags, absorbent booms or powders. Allow the spill to absorb into the spill clean-up materials.



Decontaminate PPE in a manner that ensures wash waters do not enter the stormwater system or the receiving environment.



Report incident to supervisor and Environment and Sustainability Manager (ESM) and log in incident recording system as required under Section 4.3.21 (Table 11) of the Project CEMP.



Dispose of spill residual and clean-up materials in labelled container and place in specified waste chemical and oils storage area.

4.2

MODERATE SPILLS IN EXCESS OF 20L

Moderate spills are determined to be between 20L and 39L. An incident that breaches established controls but with no effect beyond the site boundary would be determined as a “minor” incident, whilst those that breach consent or cause environmental effects beyond the site boundary are deemed to be “serious”. The procedures to be followed are as above if the spill can be safely contained on site. If this is not possible then the emergency services or specialist spill response contractor will be required to clean up the spill as set out in section 4.3 below. All spills of Environmentally Hazardous Substances over 20 litres that have entered the stormwater system, a water-body or have contacted unsealed ground, shall be reported immediately to the Auckland Council’s 24 Hour Pollution Hotline The incident will be logged and reported as set out in Section 4.3.21 (Table 11) of the Project CEMP.

4.3

LARGE SPILLS IN EXCESS OF 40 L

Spills in excess of 40L (one 10 gallon drum) would be deemed a serious incident. The following procedure will be followed. 

Carry out a visual inspection from a safe distance to identify the spilt substance, the approximate volume and assess if it is safe to contain the spill.



Review the SDS. Spills of toxic, oxidizing or flammable substances in excess of 40 L (10 gallon drum) will be referred to specialist spill response contractors and if required Emergency Services.



Put on appropriate PPE.



Evacuate the immediate area.



The incident will be reported immediately to the site supervisor and as soon as possible to the Auckland Council Pollution Hotline.



Whilst waiting for the specialists, cover stormwater drains where possible and prevent release from migration of the spill using spill containment booms or sand bags if safe to do so.



Decontaminate PPE in a manner that ensures wash waters do not enter the stormwater system or the receiving environment.

Page 16

Connectus Project #: 2665 Client: Auckland Transport

Emergency Spill Response Plan Doc. No. CRL-PAT-HSE-CON-PLN-001040 Revision: 04, Date: 21 March 2016



Following clean up either the specialist contractor will remove the material from site or if safe to do so may contain the spilt material and relocate to the specified waste chemical and oil storage area for later disposal.



Report incident to supervisor and ESM and log in incident recording system as required under Section 4.3.21 (Table 11) of the Project CEMP.

4.4

DRY MATERIAL SPILLAGE

It is possible that dry materials such as cement and grout materials may be spilled on site. These will be cleaned up on site as quickly as possible using the following procedure:

4.5



Carry out a visual inspection from a safe distance to identify the spilt substance, the approximate volume and assess if it is safe to contain the spill.



Review the MSDS and adopt appropriate PPE.



Cordon off the area to prevent vehicle or pedestrian access to the spill and therefore prevent tracking of contaminants across the site.



Protect/cover any downstream stormwater catchpits to prevent the material entering the stormwater system.



As soon as possible, clean up the spillage using a spade or similar and place the waste material in a labelled container for safe removal from site.



Following clean up relocate to the specified waste chemical and oil storage area for later disposal.



Decontaminate PPE in a manner that ensures wash waters do not enter the stormwater system or the receiving environment.



Report incident to supervisor and ESM and log in incident recording system as required under Section 4.3.21 (Table 11 of the Project CEMP).

EVACUATION

Spillage of large quantities of flammable liquids, corrosive substances, the release of a hazardous gas or the ignition of a flammable substance will require urgent evacuation of the immediate area and any area immediately down wind or downstream of the escape. The site supervisor and emergency services will be contacted immediately.

Comment I'm surprised that argon is listed as an environmental hazard. It is an inert gas, non-toxic but heavier-than-air so venting of a significant quantity might cause a hazard to workers in a confined space such as an excavation. With a stirring breeze it will be harmlessly dissipated in the atmosphere. It doesn't seem feasible to "contain" it. 5L seems an insignificant quantity in terms of hazard

Resolution Table 2 in Section 3.2 Hazardous Substances has the following change made: Argon has been removed from the indicative list of EHS stored on site.
