• Department of Conservation concessions,
• Historic Places Trust authorities, and
• Any other agreements or obligations which have compliance conditions.
CS-VUE is a secure database which matches each consent and condition of (or other legal
obligation) with a consent manager and condition manger and automatically sends an email
notifying them of compliance requirements. The consent manager is the NZTA project manager who
is responsible for overseeing consent compliance management, and the condition manager is the
project MSQA consultant who is responsible for ensuring day-to-day compliance.
Evidence to demonstrate compliance is entered in CS-VUE with all entries/changes annotated with
the person’s name and date who undertook the changes. Post-construction, the responsibility of
any conditions which have on-going maintenance and operational requirements will be transferred
to the NZTA Asset Manager.
2.5 Environmental Risk Register
An Environmental Risk Register shall be prepared and should be periodically updated by the
appointed Principal Contractor and Construction Environmental Manager. As a starting point for the
Risk Register the AEE development process and the conditions attached to consents and approvals
shall be utilised. The Risk Register shall set out the risks and links to the appropriate section of a
GCS or SEMP, which stipulate the required mitigation should it be required.
The Environmental Risk Register, to be populated and maintained by the Principal Contractor, is a
tool for the identification, prioritisation and management of activities that have the potential to
impact on the environment. As part of this update process the Principal Contractor is expected to
use a recognised Risk Assessment methodology for consensus agreement with the NZTA. The risk
assessment process shall define a process of identifying significant risks. These risks are then
entered into the Risk Register.
The Environmental Risk Register will allow the Principal Contractor to search and sort on activities,
locations, environmental aspects, and risk ratings, and provide a quick reference to the mitigation
measures and controls that are in place to manage the significant impacts.
The Construction Environmental Manager will also be required to maintain the Environmental Risk
Register. The risk assessment results will need to be reviewed at regular intervals and repeated at
critical times within the Project. Triggers for this review and update include:
• NZTA instruction;
• Before commencement of construction (once detailed programme and methodologies are
understood);
• When there is a new or changed activity, equipment or location of activities;
• When there is a change to legislative or consent and designation requirements; and
• As a result of a significant environmental incident or non-compliance.
The Register will be reviewed and updated on a quarterly basis in the event that none of the
preceding activities have already triggered a review.
