M1 JUNCTION 19 IMPROVEMENT ENVIRONMENTAL STATEMENT VOLUME 2 CHAPTER 9 – ROAD DRAINAGE AND THE WATER ENVIRONMENT 9.5 MITIGATION 9.5.1 During the construction and subsequent operation of the junction improvement, there would be a number of activities which have the potential to impact upon controlled waters, as described below. Potential Impacts Construction 9.5.2 The following potential impacts could occur during construction:- Operation • Generation of surface runoff containing high suspended solids arising from various activities including soil stripping and landscaping, demolition, excavation, infilling, embankments, importation and exportation of soil or fill material, storage and stockpiling, dust suppression, wheel washes, etc. • Spillages of oil, fuel or other construction chemicals • Piling for any of the larger structures • Watercourse crossings and diversions • Works within the floodplain • Disturbance of contaminated land, such as the former landfill • Dewatering • Creation and removal of ponds, diversion and culverting of existing watercourses • Development within the floodplain 9.5.3 The operational phase covers the use of the junction once construction has been completed. The following potential impacts could occur over the long term:- • Highway runoff discharges including spillages of predominantly oil/fuel and de-icing • Piled foundations providing pathways for migration • Changes to land drainage, surface runoff and water quality Construction Environmental Management Plan 9.5.4 A Construction Environmental Management Plan (CEMP) is being developed for the junction improvement. An outline CEMP 34 has been prepared and is reported in Volume 1 of this ES. This identifies potential areas and / or activities which may lead to water pollution or other adverse consequences, and sets out good site practice and management which would avoid or minimise such outcomes while also providing instruction on emergency response procedures to be adopted following a specific incident. The outline CEMP sets out the key measures that would be implemented on the site to manage water resources on the site throughout the construction works. 9.5.5 Proposed environmental protection measures relevant to protection of the water environment would include:- • First construction activities would be the construction of drainage ponds, and the extension of the drainage outfall culvert and ditch system • Fuel storage: All fuel would be stored, in accordance with the Control of Pollution (Oil Storage) Regulations 2001 35 , away from watercourses, drains and other sensitive receptors. Emergency spillage clean up kits would be provided at all refuelling points B0531000_ID_70-EIA Vol 2 Chap 9 Road Drainage and the Water Environment Final Rev 4.doc Page 21
