Intent:
To reduce pollution from construction activities by controlling soil erosion, waterway sedimentation, and airborne
dust that disproportionately impact frontline communities.
IMPLEMENTATION MEASURES
1. Water bodies within 50ft from construction
site
2. Stormwater infiltration
3. Sediment controls
4. Sediment track-out
5. Stockpile management
6. Dust suppression measures
7. Top soil preservation
8. Minimise soil compaction

Implementation Measure:
• Restrict vehicle use to properly designated exit points.
• Where sediment has been tracked-out from your site onto paved roads, sidewalk, or other paved areas outside of your site,
remove (sweeping, shoveling or vacuuming) the deposited sediment by the end of the same business day in which the track-
out occurs or by the end of the next business day if track-out occurs on a non-business day.

Implementation Measure:
In areas of site where final vegetative stabilization will occur or where infiltration practices will be installed,
• Restrict vehicle and equipment use in these locations to avoid soil compaction.
• Before seeding or planting areas of exposed soil that have been compacted, use techniques that rehabilitate and condition
the soils as necessary to support.

11
Implementation Measure:
• Install inlet protection measures that remove sediment from discharges prior to entry into any storm drain inlet that carries
stormwater
flow from your site to a water body.
• Clean, or remove and replace, the protection measures as sediment accumulates, the filter becomes clogged, and/or
performance is compromised.

• Design the basin or impoundment to provide storage for calculated volume of runoff from a 2-year, 24-hour
storm.

Intent:
To reduce construction and demolition waste disposed of in landfills and incineration facilities through waste prevention and
by reusing, recovering, and recycling materials, and conserving resources for future generations.
IMPLEMENTATION MEASURES
1. Reusing construction waste on-site.
2. Store and segregate construction waste on-site with permanent
signage.
