CONSTRUCTION ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN

Construction Environmental Management PlanExisting Utilities and ServicesExisting infrastructure within the vicinity of the Project will be identified prior to construction, whereby relevantowners and/or providers will be consulted by the proponent in accordance with Condition 2.40, Schedule 2 of theProject Approval (06_0009).Spares Storage FacilityA spares storage facility will be constructed adjacent to the existing Administration and Stores buildings (refer toDrawing 004, HW03-05-C-22803 and HW03-05-C-22805:22808). The spares storage facility is located whollywithin the existing NCIG visitor car park area and will be constructed towards the end of the Stage 2Fconstruction phase (i.e. when peak construction traffic/workforce will have reduced significantly). Therefore, therequirements of Condition 2.37, Schedule 2 of Project Approval (06_0009) (in relation to Internal Roads andParking) will continue to be met.The facility will incorporate the addition of racking storage, floor storage, an overhead crane and an attachedsmall office facility (including kitchenette and toilets). A Dirty Water Basin will be installed, serving to capture andcontain the contamination of runoff from the facility including new roads, whereby runoff will discharge into theexisting drain north of the facility. The basin will include an oil skimmer and oil separator.Stages of ConstructionThe proposed construction schedule for Stage 2F of the Project is shown on Figure 3. Figure 3 will beperiodically updated during construction of the Project. This CEMP has been prepared for the construction worksfor Stage 2F of the Project. Stage 2F will increase the capacity of the CET from the existing 53 Mtpa to 66 Mtpa.Sub-activities to be undertaken during the construction phase of the Project are provided in the attachedConstruction Noise Management Plan (Appendix A).In accordance with Condition 2.10, Schedule 2, of the Project Approval (06_0009), general site preparation,filling/preloading and construction works that may generate an audible noise at any residential receptor will beundertaken between 7.00 am and 6.00 pm, except in the event of a direction from the police or other relevantauthority for safety or emergency reasons.In accordance to Condition 7.4 of the Project Approval (06_0009), in the event that construction of the project isphased up to maximum capacity, preparation and implementation of additional management plans outlined inConditions 7.2 and 7.3 of the Project Approval (06_0009) shall be repeated prior to the commencement ofconstruction of each phase.As no dredged material is being reclaimed during the Stage 2F construction works, approximately 360,000 t ofclean fill material will be transported from external sources located in the Lochinvar area to the CET as asubstitute to using dredged material as fill. In accordance with Condition 2.47 of the Project Approval (06_0009),a Construction Fill Transport Assessment was conducted by Halcrow which demonstrated that the impactsassociated with the transport of fill material could be adequately and appropriately mitigated and managed(Attachment A of Appendix D). The Director-General of the NSW Department of Planning and Infrastructure(DP&I) subsequently approved the transport of fill from the Brandy Hill Quarry, Gosforth Quarries and QuarryProducts Newcastle to the CET on 21 September 2010, in accordance with Condition 2.46 of the ProjectApproval (06_0009).During Stage 2F fill material will be transported to the CET between 7.00 am and 6.00 pm, Monday to Saturday,over a period of approximately 16 months. It is anticipated that there will be a maximum of 120 truck movementsper day associated with the transport of fill material during this period (consistent with the maximum number ofdaily truck movements transporting fill material during Stage 2AA).The Stage 2F Construction Fill Transport Assessment (Attachment A of Appendix D) concluded that the each ofthe local site access roads would operate satisfactorily with the increase in vehicle movements associated withfill transport, and the performance of the local intersections would be consistent with the results from the Stage 1construction traffic assessment (NCIG, 2006a).12
