Revision: 04, Date: 21 March 2016
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 works relating to this Industrial and Trade Activities Environmental Management Plan (ITA EMP) constitute part of the enabling works for the CRL. The works (the Project) involve the construction of twin rail tunnels within the Albert Street road corridor from Customs Street West to Wyndham Street. The tunnels will be constructed using a staged cut and cover method and are expected to take 33 months to complete. Figure 1 outlines the extent of works for the Project.
This ITA EMP has been prepared by AECOM New Zealand Limited (AECOM) and forms part of the Construction Environmental Management Plan (CEMP) for the Project. The ITA EMP specifically relates to conditions 95 – 104 of discharge permit R/REG/2014/5436.

Client: Auckland Transport
Revision: 04, Date: 21 March 2016
This ITA EMP has been prepared to manage the ITAs that will be undertaken in Construction Support Areas (CSAs) 4, 5 and 6 which are associated with the construction of the Britomart Station to Wyndham Street (Britomart to Wyndham) section of the City Rail Link (CRL) project. It provides a framework for the effective management of stormwater discharges from these CSAs - i e the Northern Compound (CSA 4 and CSA 5) and the Southern Compound (CSA 6), and documents the management and operational systems employed by Connectus to ensure that the environmental objectives of the site are met. The Project site will be operated and managed in accordance with this ITA EMP at all times.
The Project comprises Active Construction Zones (ACZ) D and E (refer Figure 2), which were identified during the CRL Britomart to Wyndham enabling works consenting process to delineate construction methodology for different work areas. This ITA EMP does not apply to the ACZs because potentially contaminated stormwater generated in the ACZs will be pumped out of the trenches for treatment prior to discharge to the public stormwater system or managed as part of the erosion and sediment control processes (refer to the Project Erosion and Sediment Control Plan (ESCP) –Appendix I of the Project CEMP)
Condition 98 of R/REG/2014/5436 requires that a copy of the ITA EMP (certified version) is kept on site and is accessible at all times.
This ITA EMP has been prepared in consultation with a Community Liaison Group (CLG) prior to submission to Auckland Council (as per resource consent condition 19). A record of consultation outcomes is included in Appendix D.
A number of related management plans are referenced throughout this ITA EMP to avoid duplication of information and thereby enable efficient document control. The other relevant plans are the Project CEMP, Project ESCP (Appendix I of the Project CEMP, including Appendix D - Chemical Treatment Management Plan (CTMP)) and the Project Emergency Spill Response Plan (ESRP) (Appendix T of the Project CEMP)
Figure 2 Location of ACZs D and E

This ITA EMP has been developed specifically to fulfil the requirements of Discharge Permit R/REG/2014/5436, for the discharge of water and wastewaters.
Table 1 identifies the relevant consent conditions and where these are addressed within the ITA EMP.

Revision: 04, Date: 21 March 2016
This section presents a summary of the Project in relation to the matters required to be addressed by the ITA EMP. A detailed description of the construction works is provided in the Project CEMP.
Connectus will use a staged cut and cover methodology to construct two parallel rail tunnels within the Albert Street road corridor between Customs Street and Wyndham Street. The total length of the tunnel for the Project will be 340m. A number of utilities are required to be removed, relocated, or supported during construction.
Generally, the Project works undertaken within the relevant ACZs (D and E) will consist of:
1. Utilities relocation and exposure
2. Piling and capping beam construction within Albert Street;
3. Piling and road deck construction within the Customs Street intersection;
4. Trench Excavation, including using shotcrete and rock dowelling;
5. Construction and waterproofing of the rail tunnels; and
6. Backfill of the trench, including construction of the new road pavement.
Full details of the construction methodology can be found in the Project CEMP.
The Project makes use of three of the CSAs identified during the consenting process. The locations of these are shown in Appendix A. In addition, a construction support deck will be constructed adjacent to the trench in Albert Street.
Details of each CSA are provided below.
CSA 6 – at the southern end will provide for:
A small site office
A laydown area for materials and equipment
A small toilet and lunchroom facility
A generator

The existing drainage system consists of the Auckland Council stormwater network currently in place within the Project site. This drainage system collects runoff from the road pavements and directs it to the stormwater pipelines which then discharge directly into the Waitemata Harbour through the existing discharge structure located at the Promenade The release of contaminants to the stormwater network will be managed using the controls described in the Project ESCP and this ITA EMP.
Appendix A provides site plans showing the existing stormwater drainage system within and adjacent to the Project site, including the ITA areas of CSAs 4, 5 and 6. The drawings also outline methods to manage sediment release during construction. Further details on sediment control methods can be found in the ESCP.

Table 3 sets out the activities on site with the potential to generate contaminants which may enter the stormwater network. It also provides an assessment of the level of that risk and outlines structural and procedural controls to manage that risk. Appendix B provides examples of some of the procedures that will be used on site during the construction period.
Risk has been assessed in accordance with the Contractor’s Risk Assessment Guideline to establish an initial risk prior to controls (R1) and a residual risk after controls have been put in place (R2). Both assessments consider both likelihood of occurrence and level of consequence.

The following structural controls will be put in place to ensure that spills and contaminated water do not enter the stormwater system and receiving environment:
o Bunding of Environmentally Hazardous Substances (EHS) – bunding will be provided where required and designed to contain a volume of 110% of the largest container. This ensures that if the largest container ruptures the spillage can be contained until it can be disposed of safely.
o Settlement Tanks- Settlement tanks will be used to treat water from both the CSAs and the active construction zones. The tanks and any associated treatment device(s) will be designed to ensure that discharge levels comply with the identified trigger levels which are associated with the monitoring parameters established under Resource consent condition 101.
Resource consent condition 99 specifies using two 12,000L settlement tanks to achieve the discharge levels outcomes specified as per resource consent condition 101. However Resource consent condition 100 enables modifications to the specifications of condition 99, subject to providing the following information to Council for their certification:
- Plans and drawings outlining the details of the modifications; and
- Supporting information that details how the proposal does not affect the capacity or performance of stormwater management system.
Section 2.1.8 of the Project ESCP outlines the proposed water treatment methodology which is to be applied to the ACZ and CSAs Connectus have investigated modifying the structural control specifications outlined in condition 99 to achieve better and more efficient water quality outcomes. Connectus and AT have been in dialogue with Council Officers, who have provided agreement in principle to such modifications to the structural controls specifications.
If Connectus decide to proceed with the current modifications to the structural controls (or any other such specification which achieves the outcomes specified by condition 101), such changes will be certified by AC in accordance with condition 100.
An ESRP has been prepared for the Project. It includes the provision that all spills over 20 litres, or any spill of Environmentally Hazardous Substances that has entered the stormwater system, a waterbody or has contacted unsealed ground, shall be reported immediately to the AC 24 Hour Pollution Hotline (09-377-3107).
Within 30 days of the installation of the water treatment system, and prior to operation, a discharge monitoring programme, to assess the ongoing adequacy of all management practices, shall be developed and submitted to AC (Team Leader Central Monitoring) for certification.
