Construction Management Plan - Southwark Council Planning Pages

• appropriate and well maintained hoardings constructed on the boundaries of f adjacent noise‐screens ssensitive premises;• careful selection of construction methodss and plant, including its location, to be used;• switching off plant when not in use;• regular maintenance and servicing of vehicles, equipment and plant;• operational hours(to be agreed with Southwark Council);• the use of temporary acousticc barriers where appropriate and thee use of enclosures andaround noisy fixed plant where practicable;• appropriate handling and storage of materials;• damping down surfaces during dry weather;• the use of dust screens;• adherence to relevant British Standards; and• An appropriate choice of plant that wouldd ensure compliance with the vibration targets agreed withSouthwark Council.7.8.2 Construction NoiseOff‐Site infrastructure works, excavations, piling works and foundation construction will be among themost significant activities. The noisiest activities are likely to be the piling p works. . Although concreting coperations will also give rise to noise, the levels generated would nott be considered to be significant.As the buildings within the proposed Development rise above the ground, there will be somenoise fromscaffolding and formwork erection but the majority of activities and plant (e.g. concrete pumping) areconsidered to generate low noise levels.Where work outsideof agreed hours or likelyy to exceed specified noise limits is necessary then this shallonly proceed subjectto notification to Southwark Council Environmental Health Officer and approvalgiven. Except for emergency situations, notification will be in advance of any requirement for out ofhours/noisy working.• Where the potential for noiseexists, e.g. during piling, ‘Best Practicable Means’ will be used toreduce noise to achieve compliance consistent with the recommendations of BS 5228, and mayinclude: Careful selection of plant items, i construction methods, programming, implementing a ‘noise andvibration protocol’, which outlines monitoring frequency and action a levels etc; Design and use of Site hoarding and screens/noisee barriers, to provide acoustic screening at theearliest opportunity; and Choice of routes and programming forr the transport of construction materials.• Discussions will be held with Southwark Council’s EnvironmentalHealth Department and the formatof Section 61 submissions will be agreed in principle prior to works commencing.7.9 Soils andContamination7.9.1 Existing Conditions and strategyFollowing a geotechnical investigation of thee existing ground conditions, it was concluded that thecontaminant concentrations were reported to be the below assessment criteria. Overall, twelve MadeGround samples were screened for f asbestoss with no fibrous or cementitous materials being identified.However, the strategy for controlling and mitigating potential adverse environmental or health andsafety effects duringconstruction will be to adopt the procedures and methods set out within this CMP.St Mary’s Residential Detailed Planning Application May 201227
