Air Quality Delivery Work Plan

1.

Introduction

The City Rail Link (CRL) project comprises the construction, operation and maintenance of a 3.4 km underground passenger railway, running between Britomart Station and the North Auckland Rail Line in the vicinity of Mt Eden Station. The CRL also involves the construction of two new underground stations at Aotea and Karangahape and a redeveloped Mt Eden station (refer to Figure 1-1). The design and construction of the CRL infrastructure between the Aotea and Mt Eden Stations is being delivered by the Link Alliance.

Figure 1-1: CRL Route and Location

This Air Quality Delivery Work Plan (DWP) has been prepared in relation to the main construction works for the new Karangahape Station.

1.1 Karangahape Station The Karangahape Station consists of two entrances, one at Beresford Square / Pitt Street and the other at Mercury Lane, linked together by platforms with two mined tunnels approximately 32m below Pitt Street. The Station will also comprise equipment rooms, ventilation systems and emergency egress at both Mercury Lane and Beresford Square / Pitt Street. Given the nature and scale of the Karangahape Station construction, works will be undertaken in a staged manner, involving: • • •

Early works (demolition, network utility relocation and site establishment works) – to be undertaken from October 2019 through to early 2020; Main construction works (construction of the station and mined tunnels for the rail tracks) – to be undertaken from early 2020 through to late 2023; and Public realm reinstatement – likely to be undertaken from late 2022 to late 2024.

1.2 Air Quality DWP Staging Page 5

| Karangahape Station Main Works


Air Quality Delivery Work Plan To reflect the staged construction approach for the Karangahape Station, a series of Air Quality DWPs are being prepared. This Air Quality DWP addresses the Karangahape Station main works, which are detailed in the Construction Environmental Management Plan (CEMP), and summarised in Section 2 of this DWP. A further Air Quality DWP will be prepared for the future station superstructure and public realm reinstatement works.

1.3 Purpose of the Air Quality DWP This Air Quality DWP has been prepared to identify measures that will be implemented to mitigate and manage the potential adverse effects on air quality in the surrounding area during the Karangahape Station main works. The objective of the AQ DWP is to detail the best practicable options to avoid, remedy, or mitigate the adverse effects of discharges of dust, odour and hazardous air pollutants generated by the main construction activities. This Air Quality DWP details the following matters: • • • • •

Sources of dust, odour and combustion air pollutants that may be created during the main works; Sensitive locations and receivers within/surrounding the works area; Methods to manage dust and odour emissions and mitigate impacts on local air quality; Methods to minimise the discharge of combustion emissions from vehicles; Monitoring methods to be implemented during the works; and Procedures for responding to complaints regarding discharges into air and keeping compliance records.

This Air Quality DWP addresses the requirements of CRL designation condition 59 and the Aotea to North Auckland Line (A2N) resource consent R/REG/2016/1899 conditions 217 to 228 and will be implemented throughout the main works period. The CRL designation (condition 59) requires the preparation of a DWP while conditions 217 to 228 of the discharge permit (R/REG/2016/1899) require an Air Quality Management Plan. These two separate document requirements have been combined and are addressed in this single Air Quality DWP. This Air Quality DWP has been prepared in consultation with the Karangahape Community and Business Liaison Group (CLG) and reviewed by the Independent Peer Reviewer (IPR) prior to submission to Auckland Council (as per designation conditions 7 and 11, and condition 19 of the resource consent conditions). A record of consultation outcomes (CLG and IPR) is included in Appendix A. This Air Quality DWP has been prepared by Link Alliance and forms part of the CEMP for the Karangahape Station main works.

1.4 Relevant Conditions Table 1-1 identifies the designation and resource consent conditions relevant to this AQ DWP and where they are addressed in the document.

Karangahape Main Works 2.1 Overview of Works

The main construction works for the new Karangahape Station are described in detail in the CEMP and summarised in Table 2-1 below (refer also the drawings provided at Appendix C). It should be noted that construction of the Mercury Lane and Beresford Square station entrance superstructures and other building units, along with the internal station fit out and public realm reinstatement works will form part of separate Air Quality DWPs to be prepared in the future prior to the commencement of the respective works. Table 2-1: Overview of Main Works Construction Activities

Works location

Overview of construction activities

General establishment works

• Installation of hoardings and temporary traffic management around active construction zones

Mercury Lane

• Construction of the temporary shaft at Mercury Lane to provide access for tunnel construction. Works will include excavation, piling and construction of the above ground acoustic enclosure surrounding the shaft. • Mining of platform tunnels (likely using a roadheader) from the temporary shaft through to the Beresford Square station box. • Diaphragm wall construction and piling around the perimeter of the Mercury Lane station box. • Construction of the Mercury Lane station box, involving: top down construction works - excavation and floor slab construction; and bottom up construction works - rock breaking and excavation, construction of floor slab construction and rail platforms. • Off-site disposal of excavated material from the temporary shaft construction, mining of platform tunnels and station box construction.

Beresford Square

• Diaphragm wall construction and piling around the perimeter of the Beresford Square station box. • Construction of the Beresford Square station box, involving: top down construction works - excavation and floor slab construction; and bottom up construction works - rock breaking and excavation, construction of floor slab construction and rail platforms. • Off-site disposal of excavated material from the station box construction.

Construction Support Areas

• Continued establishment of Construction Support Areas (CSA) at Beresford Square and Mercury Lane (following on from the establishment works undertaken as part of the early works and authorised by the early works plans). This will include the bentonite plant, water treatment plant and temporary spoil storage areas. • Operation of the Beresford Square and Mercury Lane CSAs.

2.2 Discharges to Air The main discharge to air from the construction activities outlined in Table 2-1 will be particulate matter (dust). Dust has the potential to cause nuisance or soiling of property if deposited in sufficient quantities in the environment. Fine dust particles present in dust have the potential to Page 12

| Karangahape Station Main Works


Air Quality Delivery Work Plan affect respiratory heath while suspended in air. Bentonite powder used in the construction of diaphragm walls may contain respirable crystalline silica (RCS), which can also have respiratory health effects. The majority of main works construction activities, including mining and excavation of tunnels and station platforms and construction of station boxes (below the ground level floor slab), will occur underground. Dust generated from below surface activities is likely to be relatively well contained and discharged via active ventilation or passively through perforations in the ground level floor slab at Beresford Square and Mercury Lane. The details of ventilation design are yet to be confirmed as of preparation of this Air Quality DWP but will be specified to maintain underground dust and respirable particulate levels within Workplace Exposure Standards (which may include use of methods to remove suspended particulate) and avoid visible dust emissions on discharge. The following proposed activities have the potential to result in discharges of particulate matter to air: • • • • • • • •

Excavation, drilling, and mining; Outdoor spoil handling/removal; Wind erosion of spoil and other stockpiled material; Mixing of bentonite powder (stored in bags) to form bentonite slurry; Piling; Concrete breaking (as part of the diaphragm wall construction); Backfilling of excavation; and Movement of vehicles over unsealed surfaces (this includes trucks, loaders and excavators required for the tunnel excavation and spoil removal, and the delivery of construction materials such as concrete and steel).

Other minor discharges to air could include: • •

Page 13

Combustion emissions from vehicles and machinery on site, which can affect respiratory health in the environment with sufficient exposure; and Odour from excavation or disturbance of contaminated soil (if encountered), which has the potential to cause nuisance.

Environmental Setting

This section of the Air Quality DWP describes the environment surrounding the works site in terms of meteorological influences on the transport of air contaminants and sensitivity of adjacent activities to those discharges.

3.1 Locality The new Karangahape Station will be constructed beneath the intersection of Karangahape Road and Pitt Street with station entrances at Beresford Square and Mercury Lane. The site is located in an urban environment adjacent to reasonably dense urban development comprising a range of commercial, residential and recreational activities. Due to the density of development and human occupation in surrounding areas, the receiving environment in general, is of a high sensitivity to air pollution.

3.2 Meteorology Figure 3-1 shows wind roses of wind speeds and directions measured at the Niwa weather station at the Auckland Museum of Transport and Technology (MOTAT), Western Springs over year round, summer (December to February) and winter (June to August) periods. The weather station is located approximately 3 km south west of the works area. Wind measurements at this station are likely to be generally representative of conditions in central Auckland as it is relatively free from nearby obstructions or eddies created by adjacent buildings. Although localised topographical features and adjacent buildings at the Mercury Lane and Beresford Square sites are likely to alter wind conditions, the wind direction frequency trends illustrated below are likely to be broadly similar to those experienced at the MOTAT site. Based on the wind roses in Figure 3-1, winds are predominantly from the southwest and northeast. Sensitive receivers located to the northeast and southwest of the main works construction site, respectively, are likely to be most frequently exposed to any off-site dust emissions from construction activities. The amount of dust that will be generated by the works will also depends on whether conditions are dry, and wind speeds, with faster wind speeds increasing effects of wind erosion and the distance that the dust travels.

Figure 3-2 shows that the expected drier months are during summer, when wind speeds also tend to be higher. Summer winds are dominated by a south-westerly wind which will transport any emitted dust towards sensitive receptors to the northeast of site.

Environmental performance

As required by the CRL designation conditions and the A2N resource consent conditions, the purpose of this DWP is to ensure that construction air quality effects are kept to a practical minimum, recognising the sensitivity of the environment within which the works are being undertaken. The key air quality compliance requirement for construction activities is that dust and other air discharges from the activities do not result in offensive or objectionable levels of dust or other contaminants beyond the site boundary. A range of air quality management and monitoring measures are specified in Sections 5 and 6 of this DWP that shall be implemented during construction in order to minimise the potential for adverse air quality effects and avoid the occurrence of offensive or objectionable dust or contaminants in the surrounding environment. These measures include monitoring trigger levels and response actions, which are intended to provide operational feedback to improve air quality management and avoid the effects described above. However, it should be noted that they are not intended as environmental performance standards in and of themselves.

Page 18

Air Quality Delivery Work Plan

5.

Management Procedures

A range of routine measures will be implemented to manage and mitigate the effects of discharges of dust, odour or construction vehicle exhaust emissions during the main works. Additional mitigation may also be required in the event that: • • •

Monitoring indicates that abnormal discharges of dust are occurring; Weather conditions are changing such that dust or odour discharges are more likely as determined using the Dust Risk Assessment; and / or Complaints are received regarding discharges of dust, odour or construction vehicle exhaust emissions.

If the available mitigation methods are unsuccessful in controlling discharges (i.e. dust and odour) that cause significant adverse effects on receptors beyond the main works boundary, the activities causing the discharge shall be suspended until adequate mitigation can be put in place.

5.1 Dust Risk Assessment To provide guidance to the Environmental and Sustainability Manager, and area supervisors on implementing dust mitigation, the main works will use a Dust Risk Assessment (DRA) approach. The DRA is described in Appendix D, and assigns a risk classification to each proposed construction activity with the potential to generate dust based on the scale of potential dust emissions and local environmental conditions (including sensitivity of adjacent activities and weather conditions). As the dust risk is dependent on local environmental conditions, the dust risk associated with activities should be re-calculated as conditions change. A “traffic light” indication of dust risk will be posted in each work area so that Project staff are aware of the dusk risk. The dust risk will be indicated as: • • •

Low risk (green). Moderate risk (orange). High or extreme risk (red).

5.2 Dust Mitigation Measures Dust management measures are specified for construction activities that will occur above ground level in Table 5-1, and for below ground activities in Table 5-2. Dust management measures may differ based on the dust risk of the activity calculated in accordance with Appendix D. The control measures specified for the calculated dust risk level shall be employed in addition to the measures for all preceding levels– e.g. a medium risk activity requires application of measures applicable to the corresponding low risk activity as well as measures specified for medium risk. Alternate methods may be employed after the effectiveness of those methods is demonstrated and this DWP updated accordingly. The list of control methods is not exhaustive and additional methods may be found to be effective.

Outdoor stockpiles

Low

• Store stockpiled material containing a high content of fine material indoors or undercover where practicable. • Outdoor uncovered stockpiling will be limited to a volume of no more than 24 m3 at any one time in an active construction zone (ACZ). Such measures are not necessary where the material has a low dust potential, such as where washed aggregate is stored. • Outdoor stockpiles of spoil within CSAs are to be maintained in damp condition with regular application of water (such as via water sprays). • Windbreak fencing or other wind reduction structures of no less than 3 m in height shall be installed along the periphery of outdoor spoil storage areas of more than 24 m3 adjoining a boundary with private property. Fencing material should be of a porosity of approximately 50%. • Limit the height of any outdoor stockpiles to reduce wind entrainment (generally no greater than 3 m). • Orientate outdoor stockpiles to maximise wind sheltering as much as practicable. • Keep active stockpiles damp at all times or bunker or cover stockpiles of fine materials. • Dampen, cover or stabilise inactive stockpiles if they are producing visible dust emissions. • Stabilise stockpiles using various means depending on the length of inactivity (e.g. soil binders if inactive for 28 days). • Minimise handling of dry stockpiled material and drop heights to stockpiles during unloading to decrease potential for dust generation.

5.2.1. Operation of Dust Control Equipment The dust control equipment supply subcontractor will provide information on the following: •

Procedures for equipment inspection (including timeframes for regular inspections), maintenance, monitoring and recording, including baghouses, pressure relief valves, high level alarms and dust suppression mechanisms such as fog canons or sprays.

5.2.2. Equipment Malfunction If construction equipment fails and causes accidental dust discharges, it will be shut down immediately and the fault repaired and tested prior to being allowed to continue operation. If equipment associated with dust control fails (such as a baghouse and underground ventilation systems) the construction activities reliant on the equipment will be suspended until the fault can be repaired. The location, duration and time of any dust discharge caused by equipment failure will be recorded in the Air Quality Log (described in Section 9.1 and example log sheet provided in Appendix F).

5.3 Review of Dust Mitigation When the site team is alerted to a potential off-site dust nuisance through any of the monitoring techniques described in Section 6 of this DWP, or as a result of a complaint from a third party, the Construction Manager / Site Supervisor will immediately undertake a review of site activities to determine the source of the dust and implement further mitigation measures as required in order to reduce the dust generation to acceptable levels. The Construction Manager / Site Supervisor will notify the Environmental and Sustainability Manager as appropriate. In general, the additional mitigation will be those measures set out in Table 5-1 and Table 5-2. Once the additional mitigation has been implemented the Construction Manager / Site Supervisor will review the monitoring data to ensure that it has been effective.

5.3.1. Sources of Information Information necessary for determining the DRA and the general dust control measure that shall be implemented during the works can be obtained by the site team from the following are sources: •

• •

Site specific monitoring web site where Total Suspended Particulate (TSP) and meteorological data can be accessed (to be established by the Link Alliance prior to the commencement of monitoring); Met Service: http://www.metservice.com/towns-cities/auckland/auckland-central; and MetVUW North Island forecast charts: http://metvuw.co.nz/forecast/.

5.4 Odour Control during Contaminated Material Handling Odour may be emitted if contaminated soil is encountered during the excavation works, depending on the nature of the contamination. This section of the Air Quality DWP sets out the mitigation required by CRL designation Condition 59.3(g) for minimising any potential for odour if contaminated material is encountered.

Page 25

| Karangahape Station Main Works


Air Quality Delivery Work Plan Odour emissions will be monitored in accordance with Section 6.6 of this DWP during the excavation of contaminated material and the following techniques considered if necessary: • • •

Limiting the time that the odorous material in the excavation is exposed; Removing excavated odorous material from site as quickly as possible in covered trucks; and The use of odour masking agents, chemical counteractants or digestive deodorant sprays.

If significant odour is detected and the odorous material cannot be removed quickly and odour masking agents, chemical counteractants or digestive deodorant sprays are not immediately available, the odorous material shall be covered with uncontaminated soil or other suitable material to suppress odour emissions, and work in that area suspended until suitable mitigation measures can be put in place.

5.5 Control of Engine Exhaust Emissions The following key actions shall be carried out to minimise smoke and combustion by-product emissions from vehicle, machinery or generator engine exhausts: •

• •

Electrical generators or other stationary engines are to be sited and associated exhaust discharges are to be oriented to avoid exhaust discharges towards adjacent site boundaries (particularly windows, balconies, accessible terrace areas and air intakes) as far as practicable; All engines used on the site will be maintained at least in accordance with manufacturers’ requirements; Where excessive exhaust smoke is identified from any engine, it is to be serviced as soon as is practicable and the vehicle or piece of equipment is to remain out of service until such maintenance has been completed; and Unless warm-up or turbo maintenance procedures require it, construction vehicles will not be left idling while parked or unattended.

5.6 Dust Contingency Measures In the event of significant on-going dust emissions that are unable to be mitigated through the measures described in section 5.2 and are verified to have caused offensive or objectionable dust inside buildings surrounding the works area, the Environmental Sustainability Manager (or delegated person) shall investigate the implementation of dust contingency measures. The investigation is to consider the nature and scale of dust exposure and adverse effects at adjacent properties and the practicability of implementing contingency measures, including: •

Monitoring Requirements 6.1 Dust Monitoring

The overall approach to dust control for the works will be based on visual monitoring combined with targeted ambient instrumental dust monitoring; good management of the construction areas; and a rapid response to any of the triggers outlined in Sections 6.3.2 and 6.3.4 or complaints received. Good practice focusing on proactive measures will aid in avoiding significant dust emissions, however if dust emissions do occur, the monitoring will help to identify such occurrences and enable a prompt response.

6.2 Visual Inspection and Monitoring Methods Visual monitoring of all construction areas will be undertaken on a daily basis, or more frequently if conditions change. This type of monitoring relates to the control measures described in Section 5 of this DWP and will include proactive measures to avoid dust emissions. Table 6-1 below describes the visual dust monitoring programme that will be implemented during construction. Table 6-1: Visual dust monitoring programme

Monitoring activity

Frequency

Check weather forecasts for strong winds and absence of rainfall to plan appropriate work schedule and dust management response.

6.3 Instrumental Monitoring 6.3.1. Dust Monitoring Continuous instrumental monitoring of ambient dust levels (concentrations) will be carried out at representative locations adjacent to sensitive areas when in the vicinity of dust generating activities (e.g. activities described in section 2.2). Condition 224 (i) of the A2N resource consent infers that three dust monitors are to be associated with the Karangahape Station Active Construction Zones (ACZs). Two monitors are proposed to be located at each of the Mercury Lane and Beresford Square ACZs. The initial locations of the Mercury Lane monitors have been determined as follows: • •

At 2 Mercury Lane adjacent to the Cross Street corner. This site is intended to monitor particulate levels downwind of the Mercury Lane ACZ in prevailing southwest winds. At the corner of Canada and East Streets. This site is intended to monitor particulate levels downwind of the Mercury Lane ACZ in northeast winds and identify any contribution from the adjacent motorway junction in southwest winds.

Monitoring locations at Beresford Square are yet to be confirmed but are proposed to include locations downwind of the Beresford Square ACZ and downwind of outdoor storage areas in the adjoining CSA. The location of the monitors may need to be re-evaluated, and potentially moved, by the Environmental and Sustainability Manager (or delegated person) if the location of dust generating activities shift to continue to provide effective monitoring of particulate levels. As required by Condition 227 of the A2N discharge permit R/REG/2015/1899, ambient dust monitoring will commence prior to activities that have the potential for significant dust emissions. Dust monitors have been installed at Mercury Lane for the early works phase (including building demolition activities and establishment of the Mercury Lane construction support area and working platform)3. Particulate instrumental monitoring for the main works will include: • • • • • •

3

Continuous instrumental monitoring of dust at the locations identified above; Calculation of 1-hour average concentrations from real-time monitoring data; Remote display of real-time particulate data (e.g. via the internet); Provision for alarms on 1-hour average concentrations measured above dust trigger levels (visual and/or via internet, email and mobile phone – refer Section 6.3.2); Recording/logging of monitoring data; and Where practicable the monitors shall be located in accordance with AS/NZ 3580.1.1:2016 Method for Sampling and Analysis of Ambient Air – Guide to Siting Air Monitoring Equipment.

Authorised by the CRL Enabling Work Outline Plan – Karangahape Road Demolition Works (Council reference OPW60339200), confirmed by Auckland Council in June 2019 and the Karangahape Early Works Outline Plan (OPW reference OPW60347591) Page 28 | Karangahape Station Main Works


Air Quality Delivery Work Plan Dust Profiler particle counters manufactured by Aeroqual are to be installed to monitor dust at the Mercury Lane locations identified above. Other options that meet the requirements of the CRL designation and resource consent conditions include: • •

Remote nephelometers; or Beta attenuation monitors.

6.3.2. Dust Trigger Levels and Alerts Dust monitoring results will be compared with trigger levels to indicate where dust levels may have the potential to cause adverse air quality effects and where modification to dust management measures may be required to avoid this outcome. In the first instance, trigger levels published by the Ministry for the Environment (MfE)4 are adopted as operational dust trigger levels. In the event of monitoring results exceeding the trigger level, response actions will be undertaken as outlined below. The trigger level values that will be used for the main works are described in Table 6-2. Table 6-2: Dust trigger levels

Discharge

Trigger Level

Dust monitoring*

• MfE recommended trigger values for TSP concentrations: − 200 µg/m3 (rolling 1-hour average) OR • MfE recommended trigger values for PM10 concentrations: − 150 µg/m3 (rolling 1-hour average)

• Evidence of dust on windows or cars (a finger run down the glass leaves a clear line) • Dirt on clean washing *The dust monitoring trigger levels should be updated to reflect the method of monitoring employed, if required (refer below). ** The MfE recommended trigger values do not relate specifically to rolling averages, which are specified in this case to provide instantaneous feedback on dust levels. Dust deposition

The dust monitoring trigger levels should be reviewed through regular (at least monthly) review of monitoring results. The regular review should include comparison with: • • • •

The trigger alerts specified in Table 6-2; A review criterion for TSP concentrations of 60 µg/m3 (24-hour average); Visual monitoring records; Dust complaints.

If review of monitoring results indicate the triggers specified in Table 6-2 have not provided suitable advance indication of potential adverse air quality effects, the triggers may require modification. The monitoring equipment will be set up with text alerts to key personnel in the relevant work zone, when dust concentrations exceed the trigger values set out in Table 6-2. At a minimum this will include: • 4

The Karangahape Station Project Manager;

Ministry for the Environment. 2016. Good Practice Guide for Assessing and Managing Dust: Ministry for the Environment. Page 29 | Karangahape Station Main Works


Air Quality Delivery Work Plan • • •

The Karangahape Station Construction Manager; The Environmental and Sustainability Manager; and The Karangahape Station Site Supervisor.

If personnel change, the Instrument Technician will be contacted to update the alerts. If a dust trigger alert is sent, one of the above staff members will immediately (within 30 minutes) respond and investigate the cause of the alert. This investigation will: • •

Determine if the alert is real and not caused by equipment malfunction; and Identify the source of dust and check to see that all of the required mitigation measures are being implemented.

If it is determined that construction activities are the cause of dust, and that mitigation measures outlined in Section 5 of this DWP are not effective for controlling dust, the Link Alliance will implement the dust contingency procedures outlined in Section 5.6 of this DWP. If these measures fail to effectively manage dust to acceptable levels, works shall be halted until it can be determined why dust emissions are occurring and what additional mitigation measures are required to control ambient dust to acceptable levels. The findings of the investigation will be recorded in the Air Quality Log (refer to Section 9.1 of this DWP).

6.3.3. Meteorological Monitoring A meteorological station that can continuously measure the following parameters would provide useful information to inform dust control at the site and investigation of dust incidents. If used within the works area, meteorological measurements should include: • • • • •

Continuous instrumental monitoring of wind direction, wind speed, rainfall, and temperature; Calculation of 1-hourly averaged data; Provision for alarms on 1-hour average wind speed data measured above wind speed trigger levels (visual and/or via internet, email and mobile phone); Remote display of real-time meteorological data (e.g. via the internet); and Recording/logging of monitoring data.

Where practicable weather instruments shall be located in general accordance with AS/NZS 3580.14:2014 - Methods for sampling and analysis of ambient air – Meteorological monitoring for ambient air quality monitoring applications. It will preferably be located to avoid adjacent buildings and other obstructions, where possible. In the absence of on-site weather monitoring data, information of current and preceding wind conditions may be obtained from: • • •

6.3.4. Wind Speed Trigger Dust Alerts The Trigger Levels proposed for wind speed measurements (if wind monitoring is employed at the site) are detailed in Table 6-3. Table 6-3: Wind speed trigger levels

Discharge

Trigger Level

Wind speed

• Wind warning level: − 5 m/s (1-hour average) − 10 m/s (1-minute average occurring twice in 20 minute period)

In the event that wind speeds exceed the trigger values set out in Table 6-3 of this DWP, text alerts will be sent to nominated project personnel in the relevant work zone. As a minimum, the nominated personnel will include: • • • •

The Karangahape Station Project Manager; The Karangahape Station Construction Manager; The Environmental and Sustainability Manager; and The Karangahape Station Site Supervisor.

If 1-hour average wind speeds exceed 5 m/s then the visual monitoring of the work area will be undertaken to ensure that all appropriate mitigation outlined in this DWP is being implemented and are effective.

6.3.5. Alternative Management Approach There is the potential that continuous instrumental measurement of particulate concentrations may be influenced by either background particulate emission sources (not associated with the Karangahape Station main works or other CRL construction activities, such as from domestic home heating or motor vehicle emissions) or rainfall/high humidity conditions that can affect certain instruments. Previous experience at other CRL construction sites has shown that comparison of continuously measured ambient particulate concentrations with defined trigger levels may not always be indicative of adverse dust effects or a potential for dust nuisance experienced beyond the site boundary. If investigations of exceedance trigger levels establish that trigger events are not associated with onsite dust generation, an alternative dust risk assessment approach can be implemented. In that instance and if identified to be required by the Environmental and Sustainability Manager in consultation with the Auckland Council Monitoring and Compliance team, the following alternative approach will be taken: •

Page 31

A response to individual dust trigger alerts in accordance with Section 6.3.2 will not be mandatory and instrumental dust monitoring results will instead be reviewed against the trigger levels specified in by the Environmental and Sustainability Manager (or delegated person) on a daily basis.

| Karangahape Station Main Works


Air Quality Delivery Work Plan •

Visual dust inspections are to continue in accordance with Section 6.2. If identified by the Environmental and Sustainability Manager as a result of a review of instrumental dust monitoring results, visual inspections may be required at an increased frequency. Dust risk is calculated each morning by site engineers in accordance with Section 5.1 and Appendix C and used to inform appropriate management procedures.

6.4 Monitoring Data All monitoring data from the dust monitors and the on-site meteorological station will be available to project staff on-line, and electronically recorded for future reference.

6.5 Monitoring Equipment Maintenance and Calibration The dust monitoring and meteorological equipment will require periodic maintenance and calibration checks. These will be done at a frequency and as per manufacture specifications by either site personnel, who have received appropriate training, or an Instrument Technician. Unless the instrument recommends a higher frequency, at least quarterly maintenance and calibration will be carried out by a qualified Instrument Technician familiar with the equipment installed. In the event that there is an equipment malfunction, or the equipment needs to be relocated for some reason, then the Instrument Technician will attend to this.

6.6 Odour Monitoring Odour monitoring (observations) will be undertaken when it is considered likely that odorous material may be encountered (such as contaminated soil materials) during excavations. The decision to undertake monitoring by a suitable experienced odour observer will be made by the Environmental and Sustainability Manager. The frequency of odour monitoring will be dependent on the nature/scale of the source, location in relation to sensitive receptors, and meteorological conditions during exposure. Odour observations will occur: • •

When potentially contaminated material is excavated and loaded onto trucks; and When odour complaints have been received.

The Environmental and Sustainability Manager will ensure that at least one person in each work area is trained as an odour observer. Monitoring will involve the odour observer being positioned downwind of the works and assessing odours on the intensity scale set out in Table 6-4. Where odours are identified as being “Distinct” and above, and the odour characteristic unpleasant, mitigation measures will be implemented. All observations will be recorded in the Air Quality Log (refer Section 9.1 of this DWP). Table 6-4: Odour intensity scale

The odour observer will reassess the level of odour once the mitigation measures have been implemented. If the odours are still ‘Distinct’, further mitigation will be implemented, and / or the works halted until more conducive meteorological conditions are present, i.e. not blowing towards the sensitive receptor. If it is suspected that sources upwind of the works are responsible for any odour, the odour observer shall make appropriate observations and document these also. As exposed odorants may potentially also present health risks, the procedures outlined in Section 7.1 of the Contamination DWP for unexpected discovery of contamination should also be followed.

Communication and Complaints 7.1 Project Communications

Section 6 of the Communication and Consultation Plan (CCP) for the Karangahape main works details how communities in the vicinity of the construction works will be communicated with in relation to the management of adverse effects relating to air quality. Communications will focus around informing communities of dust management and monitoring measures to be implemented during the Project and providing updates on these aspects as appropriate during the construction works.

7.2 Complaints Although the mitigation measures described in this Air Quality DWP are aimed at avoiding discharges to air, complaints may be received by members of the public. It is important to ensure that any complaints are recorded and promptly investigated to identify and resolve the cause of the complaint. The requirements and procedures relating to complaints are detailed in Section 7.3.2 of the CCP.

Record Keeping 9.1 Air Quality Log

Construction activities can be affected by a number of different external and internal factors, such as weather conditions or equipment malfunction, which can contribute to an increase in dust emissions. Various control and mitigation measures will be carried out on-site to prevent such effects, and monitoring and inspection procedures will be used to assess the level of dust emissions both on the project site and beyond its boundary. Recording relevant monitoring and inspection results, as well as the conditions of external and internal factors, can help assess if control measures are being effective, and to define appropriate corrective or preventive actions in case any undesirable effects are detected. The procedures for recording daily air quality inspections are detailed below: • •

Page 36

The Site Engineer will fill out an Air Quality Daily Log (refer to Appendix F) form each day and maintain the record on site. The following information will be recorded: o Records of dust monitoring trigger events specified by this DWP, including identification of the monitor ID which registered the trigger event, the time and the averaging period of the TSP trigger event (e.g. 1-hour or 24-hour average concentration); o Any dust control equipment malfunctions and any remedial action(s) taken; o Results of the Visual Inspections of dust emissions; o General weather conditions during the day (i.e. windy, calm, warm, rain, etc.); o The frequency of watercart and/or water sprinkling system use; and o The date and signature of the person entering the information.

Dust and fumes may require windows to be shut to avoid construction effects. Location of generators and other equipment that may push fumes into units - this has been an issue in the past.

The measures described in section 5.2 are proposed to avoid dust impacts at the George Court Building (and other properties adjacent to works areas). A dust monitor is currently located on the George Court Building to provide rapid feedback on dust levels before nuisance impacts occur. Exhaust vents from generators, stationary engines and the underground ventilation system are required to be directed away from site boundary (and the George Court Building beyond.

Section 2.2 and 5.2

It is noted in Table 2.1, that the construction support area will include the bentonite plant. Controls around this plant are considered good practice with the silos fitted and operated with a level alarm and pressure relief valves to prevent overfilling as well as the silos being operated with a filtration system. However, as bentonite is likely to contain both crystalline silica and cristobalite, the dust from this source may not be considered “particulate not otherwise regulated” and care must be taken to ensure the controls are adequate. As the safety data sheet for the product to be used has not been sighted, it is not possible to identify the actual percentage of crystalline silica and cristobalite present. A conservative approach is required for any dust from this product.

The Bentonite supplier has not been confirmed but Bentonite likely to contain small amounts of respirable crystalline silica (RCS). The MSDS provided by construction team for example Bentonite material contained <1% w/w RCS, though other bentonite powder materials may have a higher content. Bentonite storage/delivery method has subsequently been confirmed to be by bag and mixed manually within an enclosure. The absence of pneumatic conveyance to silos will reduce the potential for bentonite dust emissions and the risk of RCS emissions from this source beyond the site boundary is low. Sections 2.2 and 5.2 have been updated to reflect this method.

IPR-02

Section 5.5

It is noted that there has been communication with the Community Liaison Group. A concern was raised about “fume” from generators being an issue in the past. The plan deals with vehicle exhaust emissions and emissions from construction machinery in Section 5.5. However, if this neighbour reports that there have been issues from the location of generators in previous stages of this work, then the controls have not been followed or not been adequate. It is recommended that the location of plant is given particular attention and possibly added as a specific control in Section 5.5.

Small generators may be used temporarily at locations where mains electrical supply is not available. Section 5.5 has been broadened to refer to and specify management actions for all engines used on-site (including those associated with generators and machinery as well as vehicles). Requirements now include siting and orientation of generators and other stationary engines to avoid discharges towards site boundaries as far as practicable.

Auckland Council Review Comments

Comments received from the Paul Crimmins, Senior Specialist at Auckland Council are recorded in the table below. Auckland Council Review feedback.

Feedback comment

Response

Section 5.2

Section 2.1 notes that the majority of dust sources are underground, including the use of a roadheader excavator with active or passive dust extraction. The application for resource consent R/REG/2016/1899 stated that dust from this process would be extracted to a fabric filter dust control system capable of meeting a 30 mg/m3 dust discharge limit prior to discharge. There is no reference of this in this draft AQ DWP, but details of such an emission control device (including location, design, monitoring and maintenance) would be a key requirement for the control of off-site dust effects. I suggest Table 5-2 needs further info about the dust extraction from underground working areas

Additional information added to Table 5-2.

Section 6.3

An indication of possible locations for instrumental monitoring to the north of K’Rd would assist the OPW sign-off process (at present, s6.3 suggests two locations shall be determined in future).

Locations are still yet to be confirmed but additional text added Section 6.3 to give more certainty to locations.

Section 6.3.3

Meteorological monitoring; this doesn’t specify that on-site wind monitoring shall occur. I consider that the dust monitor placed in the most open space near to the K’Rd works area should be accompanied by a Met monitor to provide the useful data detailed by s6.3.3 and comply with Designation Condition 59.3(a).

Information added to Section 6.3.3.

Air Quality Delivery Work Plan

Appendix D: Dust Risk Assessment Procedure The risk of adverse off-site dust impacts as a result of the main works and the level of dust mitigation and management processes required to minimise such impacts will vary depending on various factors including: â&#x20AC;˘ â&#x20AC;˘ â&#x20AC;˘

Proximity of activity to sensitive locations in the surrounding environment; Weather conditions such as wind speed and whether the ground is dry; and The dust emission potential associated with the type of activity being undertaken.

The objective of this dust risk assessment (DRA) procedure is to provide guidance to the Environmental and Sustainability Manager, and site supervisors of the level of dust management procedures that should be implemented depending on what activity is being undertaken on site. The DRA procedure is based on those implemented by London Council and is outlined in Figure C-1 below5,6.

Step 1 Calculate environmental dust potential from local weather conditions and proximity of sensitive receptors (Table C-1).

Step 2 Calculate dust risk for each activity to be undertaken (Table C-2).

Step 3 Ensure the appropriate level of dust management processes are implemented (Section 5.2), and that the dust risk is displayed on-site.

Figure C-1 Graphical representation of process to determine dust risk

Treatment of above and below ground activities A substantial proportion of dust generating activities in the Main Works phase will occur underground (either below the existing ground surface or underneath previously constructed floor slabs). Dust from underground activities will be contained and will not be influenced by external weather conditions. Any residual dust in air ventilated from underground works areas will be discharged via fixed vent locations. Conversely, dust from most above ground activities associated with the works will not be physically contained and will be discharged diffusely, potentially from a wide variety of locations. Above ground activities will also be subject to ambient weather conditions. The environmental influences on the potential for above and below ground activities to cause dust nuisance therefore differ and environmental dust potential of above and below ground activities is therefore calculated via separate activities below.

Air Quality Delivery Work Plan Calculating environmental dust potential for above ground activities The calculation of environmental dust sensitivity (and potential fort dust transport) for ground level activities requires identification of the following: 1. Identify location of nearest residential activity to the works activities to be undertaken and identify approximate separation distance for each works activity. 2. Review local weather forecast over works period for wind speeds (e.g. via https://www.metservice.com/towns-cities/auckland/auckland-central) and on-site meteorological data for rainfall in preceding 48 hours. With this information the environmental dust sensitivity rating can be calculated from Table D-1 below.

Calculating environmental dust potential for below ground activities Environmental dust sensitivity and potential fort dust transport associated with below ground works is considered differently as dust generation from these activities will not be influenced by ambient weather conditions and dust will only be emitted from fixed discharge points in the ventilation system. The environmental dust potential for underground dust generating activities is therefore calculated based on the state of discharge from ventilation exhaust points as follows: • •

LOW – Exhaust free of visible dust emissions; and MEDIUM – Visible dust emissions are observed from external exhaust vents.

Contingency measures for ventilation equipment malfunction is discussed in Section 5.2.2.

Air Quality Delivery Work Plan Dust risk calculation The dust risk for each prescribed activity associated with the works is subsequently derived from the dust emission potential and the calculated environmental dust potential as outlined in Table C-2. Table C-2 Dust risk calculation
