INTRODUCTION Purpose
This Air Quality Delivery Work Plan1 (AQDWP) has been developed by Golder Associates (NZ) Limited (Golder) for the management and mitigation of the air quality effects associated with the demolition of the buildings and structures in the Karangahape Station (Mercury Lane and East Street Entrance) Construction Support Area (CSA) elements of the City Rail Link (CRL) project (the project). The purpose of this AQDWP is to provide a framework for managing the air discharges, especially dust emissions, so that potential significant adverse environmental and human health effects beyond the boundary of the construction site are avoided. This is to be primarily achieved by:
Identifying the sources of fugitive dust emissions associated with the demolition activities.
Describing controls and procedures to prevent fugitive dust emissions from each significant source.
Describing inspection and dust monitoring programs.
Describing the training of personnel necessary for the AQDWP to be effectively implemented.
Describing the necessary record-keeping to verify and document ongoing compliance with the AQDWP.
Establishing the roles and responsibilities of staff throughout the organisation in relation to the AQDWP.
Dust emissions are considered the primary contaminant of concern discharged to air from the proposed demolition works. Combustion emissions from the operation of vehicles, and any residual emissions from emission control equipment associated with the works are expected to give rise to air quality effects that are negligible. Regarding odour, it is expected that there is very limited potential for odour to be generated by the project. As such, this AQDWP focuses on the management of dust emissions from the works as the effects of other emission sources are considered insignificant. This AQDWP fulfils the reporting requirements for the management and mitigation of air quality effects under the Auckland Unitary Plan: Operative in Part (15 November 2016). This AQDWP also satisfies the requirements for reporting, managing and mitigating air quality effects in accordance CRL Designation 2500-4 and the Aotea Station to North Auckland Line (A2N) resource consents 2. This AQDWP has been prepared by a senior qualified person in accordance (where relevant and practicable) with the Ministry for the Environment (MfE 2016) Good Practice Guide for Assessing and Managing Dust.
1.2
Report Structure
The structure of the AQDWP is designed to provide a logical and practical framework for the management of air emissions from the CSA. The AQDWP has the following key sections:
Section 2.0 provides a description of the project and site demolition activities.
Section 3.0 identifies the potential dust emissions sources and the structural and operational controls that are proposed to mitigate the risks associated with each source.
Section 4.0 outlines a proposed dust monitoring programme.

Environmental Objective
The primary environmental objective of this AQDWP is to detail the best practicable option to avoid dust and odour nuisance being caused by the project construction works and to remedy any such effects should they occur. This objective will be achieved by ensuring that all site activities are contained within appropriate areas and site activities will not result in any discharges to air resulting in unacceptable levels of contaminants within the surrounding environment.
2.0 2.1
DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT City Rail Link
The CRL project comprises the construction, operation and maintenance of a 3.4 km underground passenger railway, running between Britomart Station and the NAL near Mt Eden Station. CRL Enabling Works commenced in December 2015 and the procurement of the main works contract (C3 Alliance) is being progressed with contract award likely in the first quarter of 2019. To allow works to commence as soon as possible upon award of the C3 Alliance, City Rail Link Limited (CRLL) is obtaining the necessary authorisations for demolition of buildings in the Karangahape Station CSA located between Mercury Lane and East Street.
2.2
Advance Works Project
It is proposed to demolish the buildings and structures in the Karangahape Station (Mercury Lane entrance) CSA as identified in Figure 1 below. The project is being undertaken in accordance with the CRL Designation 2500-4, confirmed in November 2015 and the Aotea Station to NAL suite of resource consents approved in November 2016. The conditions of these authorisations require the preparation of an Outline Plan (OP), Delivery Works Plans (DWP) and Management Plans (MP). This AQDWP is prepared in accordance with the CRL Designation 2500-4 and resource consent conditions as identified in the hierarchy of documentation illustrated in Figure 2. As outlined in Table 3 prior to demolition, an asbestos survey will be carried out by a ‘competent surveyor’ on each building to be demolished.

CRLL plans to commence the process of vacating the tenanted properties in the third quarter of 2019 to ensure sites are vacant in reasonable time ahead of the planned disconnection of services. Demolition will commence in late 2019 and extend for eight to 12 weeks. Demolition will be undertaken in a staged manner the order of which is to be confirmed by the C3 Alliance. Buildings at the northern end of the site are anticipated to be removed first, with demolition works progressing southward. All buildings and structures will be removed to ground level, with the retention of some existing foundations where necessary for site stability. A soft strip (wall linings etc) of salvageable materials and recycling of concrete and reinforcing steel will be carried out where possible. All demolition material will be removed from the project area and covered during transportation and disposed of at approved facilities. The project area will be fenced, with lockable gates, to prevent unauthorised entry. Where appropriate, solid plywood fencing will be used, with appropriate signage prohibiting unauthorised entry and identifying hazards.
2.3
Sensitive Locations
Off-site locations within approximately 100 m from the project area are considered sensitive to potential dust and odour impacts given the nature of the receiving environment. See Figure 3 for map of sensitive receptor locations. Examples of activities surrounding the project area are as follows:
3.0 3.1
Pedestrian access to offices and other places of work. Shopping/Commercial/Business activities fronting these streets sections. Bar patronage along Mercury Lane and Karangahape Road. Non-profit organisations – New Zealand Prostitute Collective and Eat My Lunch. Accommodation – BK Hostel. Entertainment venue – Studio the Venue, Art Space, and Mercury Theatre. The Lightpath cycle and pedestrian walkway along the Southern Motorway. Residential building along Karangahape Road (259-281 Karangahape Road).
DUST EMISSIONS SOURCES AND MITIGATION Introduction
This section provides a description of the dust emission sources and mitigation measures for the proposed demolition activities within the project footprint. It includes a qualitative risk assessment for each key activity to identify the priority activities on the site that represent the highest risks in terms of creating an adverse dust effect beyond the boundary of the site. Finally, the emission controls and procedures for each activity are described, as well as the person responsible for the implementation and management of dust control. Each of the potential risks is assessed in terms of the probability that they might occur (low, medium or high) and of the level of the consequence in case they do occur (low, medium or high). For instance, a potential risk with a low probability means that it is likely to occur only one to five times during the whole period of construction activities. A potential risk with a high probability means that it is likely to occur at least once per week during the period of construction activities. The consequence is independent of the probability and is related to effects on the environment (beyond the boundary of the site) of that risk when it does occur. A lowlevel consequence means that any effects to the environment should be less than minor and no sensitive receptors would be affected. A high-level consequence, on the other hand, means effects on the environment may be significant and that sensitive receptors are likely to be affected.

NOTES
May 2019
1378206325-118-R-Rev0
The risk level is assessed as low, medium or high based on the combination of the assessments of probability and consequence. The resulting risk level indicates the priority of that activity in terms of control measures and procedures for minimising dust emissions. The risk assessment has been undertaken on the basis of the demolition activities proposed by CRLL. Due to the relatively short duration of demolition phase of the project, the risk assessment will need to be reviewed at critical milestones during the project, such as when there is a new or changed activity, changes to equipment or location of activities or when there is a change to legislative/consent/designation requirements. An annual review is not considered necessary in this instance given the short-term nature of the works.
3.2
Overview of Dust Sources
The main discharge into air arising from the demolition activities is particulate matter (dust). The following key activities are potential sources of dust emissions from the proposed demolition activities:
Due to unpaved surfaces, some storage of demolition materials and vehicles accessing and departing from the demolition site.
The breaking apart, removal and handling of wall linings (such as plaster board).
The use of concrete saws.
Use of excavator with breaker or claw to break apart and pull-down concrete building structures.
Use of excavator with breaker to break apart concrete foundation slabs.
The sorting and segregation of concrete from reinforcing steel.
The loading of demolition materials into trucks for removal from the site.
It is understood that there will be no on-site crushing of concrete, which can be a significant source of dust associated with demolition activities. The stockpiling of spoil and other bulk materials on site can be sources of dust for most earthworks and demolition activities if not controlled. Where practical, materials will be loaded directly into trucks, covered and removed off site. The next section describes the risks associated with the above key activities in terms of the potential to result in adverse effects on sensitive locations. Section 3.3 also details the associated mitigation measures that are to be used to control or suppress dust emissions from each activity. The termination of utility services to buildings and soft strip demolition are generally not expected to be a significant source of dust. The removal of asbestos is not considered in detail in this AQDWP. If asbestos is identified it will be removed in a controlled manner in accordance with relevant WorkSafe New Zealand (WorkSafe) requirements and the Contamination Delivery Work Plan (CDWP) (Golder 2019).

Risk Assessment and Controls and Procedures for Dust Sources
The risk assessment and the controls/procedures for mitigating dust emissions from the key activities within the project are provided in Table 3. Within Table 3 the probability that a risk of unmitigated dust emission would occur is denoted as ‘P’, the level of the consequence in case the risk does occur is denoted as ‘C’ and the overall risk assessment as ‘R’. The control/procedure for each activity is intended to ensure that dust emissions are effectively controlled such that any off-site effects that may occur are of an acceptable level.

Potential dust from unpaved areas will be suppressed by routinely applying water across areas that are frequently trafficked on dry days. During particularly dry conditions this may require reapplication of water over unpaved surfaces at a frequency of 30-minutes or less. In addition, windbreaks or hoarding fences will be installed around the perimeter of the CSA to minimise wind speeds. Unconsolidated areas are to be compacted.
Uncovered loads of demolition waste being transported
Dust generated from the loads as vehicles access public roads and build up speed resulting in a billowing effect acting on dusty loads.

In addition to the dust control/procedure noted below, consideration of dust management will form part of the demolition team’s daily toolbox meeting. The daily meeting is to include consideration of the weather forecast for that day and, where necessary, subsequent communication with immediate and potentially affected neighbours. Where it is verified that dust emissions from the project have caused a significant impact on a neighbouring property, contingency response measures are to be determined and instigated, which may include the cleaning of air filtration intakes, or cleaning of buildings and infrastructure as necessary.

DUST MONITORING PROGRAMME General Site Monitoring
The following general site monitoring will be undertaken:
Daily – The project ESM or delegated person will conduct twice daily visual inspections of the project area (including all subcontractor activities), and any issues identified will be recorded and where necessary appropriate response measures actioned. The daily monitoring will include wind conditions and visual inspections in order to check compliance with this AQDWP, and observations shall be recorded in a Daily Log (see Section 4.2 for further details).
13
May 2019
1378206325-118-R-Rev0
Weekly – Formal site inspections are to be completed by the ESM. Project area specific checklists will be developed by the ESM to check compliance with this AQDWP.
Monthly – A representative from CRLL, and relevant Site Manager will undertake a monthly site visit with the project ESM, to confirm the work procedures containing environmental controls are being implemented in accordance with this AQDWP. A review of the current risk assessment table (Table 3) will be carried out by project ESM, updating it as required.
At the end of each month, the project ESM will submit a site inspection and environmental performance report to CRLL. The report will include but not be limited to a summary of environmental issues that occurred and actions taken during the month to ensure compliance with this AQDWP. The report will include: i)
Completed project area checklists.
ii)
Details of any action item requests.
iii)
Dust or odour incidents that occurred.
iv)
Complaints received.
v)
Investigations and corrective actions associated with complaint or incident investigations.
vi)
Staff environmental inductions and awareness training.
This AQDWP outlines two monitoring procedures that are to be carried out in order to ensure dust emissions are minimised. These are detailed in the following sections.
4.2
Visual Inspections of Dust Emissions
Visual inspections of the perimeter of the project area will be performed on a twice daily basis during the demolition activities and recorded. The visual inspections will help to ensure dust control measures are being effective. Records from daily visual inspections recorded in the Daily Logs can also be a useful tool for investigating and responding to complaints. The specific procedures for carrying out visual inspections are outlined below:
Visual inspections will be performed twice each day of operation by the ESM or delegated person around the whole perimeter of the Project area. The exits of the Project area onto adjoining roads will be inspected in order to verify that significant levels of mud or dusty material is not being carried by trucks and machinery onto public roads, and remedial action taken where necessary.
If visible dust emissions are identified beyond the site boundary, the following details must be recorded in the Daily Log form:
▪ the source of the visible dust emissions (special note needs to be taken if dust source is concrete dust as this contains crystalline silica);
▪ the level (extent) of the visible dust emissions: 1) minor visible emissions (<5 m from source), 2) moderate visible emissions (5 to <30 m from source), 3) major visible emissions (>30 m from source),
14
May 2019
1378206325-118-R-Rev0
▪ a brief description of the colour and opacity of the visible dust emissions (e.g., dim brown, hazy grey, dense black, etc.); and
▪ the time and general weather conditions (i.e., windy, calm, warm, etc.) at the moment the visible dust emissions were identified.
If the assessed level of visible dust emissions is moderate or major, or due to concrete dust, the duty or site manager for the project area must be notified for further action, including ceasing on-site dust generating activities.
When notified for further action, the duty or site manager will investigate the situation and take necessary measures to ensure dust levels do not give rise to offensive or objectionable dust impacts. Such actions will also be recorded in the Daily Log.
4.3
Continuous Monitoring of Total Suspended Particulate
Overview Continuous dust monitoring will be carried out at representative locations adjacent to sensitive areas at all times when dust generating activities related to demolition works are undertaken on site. It is expected that at least two monitors will be in use at any given time and the location of the monitors will be evaluated and relocated routinely as the location of demolition works shifts. The monitoring will provide information on realtime dust levels that can be used for managing dust events if and when they occur. This monitoring programme is designed to complement and enhance the visual inspections described above. The monitors will be linked to alarms and when trigger levels are exceeded SMS messages will be sent to the duty manager indicating the need to take additional measures to ensure off-site dust effects are controlled (including after-hours). The monitors will be easily re-locatable, able to run without mains power supply and will employ optical nephelometry that works by directing a laser beam through a sample of air containing particulate and measuring the light scattered by the particles in the sample.
Setup and locating device The objective in siting the monitors is to ensure they are located close to sensitive off-site neighbours and adjacent to demolition activities as they occur. The monitors will most likely be located along the top of the hoardings. This will allow the monitoring to pick up on high dust levels as they occur and allow a response to reduce the dust before it becomes a nuisance for the neighbours. In line with Institute of Air Quality Management (IAQM) Guidance on Monitoring in Vicinity of Demolition and Construction Sites (2018)3 recommendations care needs to be taken with regard to the immediate surrounds when positioning samplers. Sampler inlets should be located:
In a clear, unobstructed position;
Some metres away from any large structures (such as walls of buildings) that might interrupt airflow;
Immediately above the sampler should be open to the sky (free in an arc of at least 270°), with no overhanging trees or other structures;
The sampler head should ideally be located between 1.5 to 4 m above ground level.

May 2019
1378206325-118-R-Rev0
Data will be automatically telemetered to, and stored at, the site office. The results of the real-time monitoring results shall be displayed in the site office for easy reference to and quick response by staff. Security fencing is to be set up around each instrument to deter vandalism or theft. It should also be clearly marked so as to avoid the likelihood of damage from machinery or vehicles operating nearby. If the monitors are run using batteries only, instead of relying on solar photovoltaic cells, then the units shall have a battery alarm that notifies the duty manager via SMS text when to change the battery over. A battery recharge and change over schedule shall also be prepared and adhered to.
Trigger Alarms and Response A pre-determined TSP concentration averaged over 1-hour is to be used as a trigger for activating an alarm response where by an audible alarm sounds within the site office and the site manager and duty manager are notified electronically (i.e., text message to their cell phones). The pre-determined TSP concentration to be initially used as the trigger alarm threshold is as follows:
70 µg/m³ as a 1-hour average.
The above trigger alarm threshold is a preliminary value and may need to be adjusted depending on the monitor type, experience with the operation of the monitors, and any subsequent feedback from neighbours. Immediately following the activation of a trigger alarm, the duty manager or delegated staff member will investigate the cause of the alarm trigger to determine whether additional mitigation measures are required to reduce dust emissions. Each trigger alarm event is to be recorded in the Daily Log along with the findings of the investigation and any mitigation responses taken. The duty manager is to check the data display system each day of operation to confirm that the monitors are operating correctly, and that the data is being downloaded.
Calibration and Maintenance As part of the calibrations and maintenance programme, the dust monitors will be checked and calibrated in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
5.0
OTHER MINOR DISCHARGES TO AIR
Combustion emissions from the operation of vehicles, and any residual emissions from emission control equipment associated with the project are expected to give rise to air quality effects that are negligible. However, all machinery and control equipment will be subjected to weekly checks for excessive and prolonged visible emissions and will be serviced in accordance with the supplier’s recommendations. Any malfunctioning machinery is to be repaired, replaced or removed from site within 24 hours. The Project is not expected to give rise to any offensive or objectionable odour effects. Accordingly, odours effects are expected to be less than minor. If the project results in unforeseen odour emissions or it becomes apparent that odour emissions may occur from an activity, then operations associated with that activity will cease and measures to address the discharge promptly investigated and implemented (including procedures for responding to discharges of odour and equipment inspection).

COMPLAINTS RESPONSE AND RECORDING
Although measures of this AQDWP are aimed at avoiding complaints regarding dust occurring (complaints regarding odour are not anticipated), in practice complaints may be made on occasions by members of the public. It is important to ensure that any complaints that are received are recorded, promptly investigated to identify and resolve the cause of the complaint and appropriately responded to. The requirements and procedures on how to accomplish this are detailed in the Construction Environmental Management Plan (CEMP) and the project Communication and Consultation Plan (CCP).
7.0 7.1
ENVIRONMENTAL TRAINING Project Staff
To achieve an effective AQDWP and to ensure off-site air quality impacts comply with resource consent and the CRL designation condition requirements, all project staff (contractors and subcontractors) will undergo general air quality awareness training and training about their responsibilities under the ADWP. As part of the site staff induction, matters relating to dust management will be communicated to all staff and subcontractors prior to starting work on site. Information will be provided on any procedural and/or structural controls employed on the project to mitigate risk to air quality. Site engineers responsible for writing work plans and undertaking site specific safety and environmental risk assessments will also be given guidance on how to assess and plan for the environmental issues considered within the AQDWP. Air quality and other environmental issues will form a regular part of toolbox meetings (to be attended by contractor staff and subcontractors) to ensure all workers are aware of the key issues. The training requirements outlined in Table 4 are aimed to ensure all staff will receive appropriate training to fully understand the risks of activities on the sites to the environment, particularly with regard to off-site dust impacts, and the requirements of this AQDWP. Regular review of training requirements will be undertaken to ensure all staff are appropriately trained.

Daily 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 are to be carried out on the site in order to prevent such effects. Monitoring and inspection procedures will be used to assess the level of dust emissions both on the site and beyond its boundary. Recording relevant monitoring and inspection results, as well as the conditions of external and internal factors, can help to assess if control measures are being effective and to define appropriate corrective or preventive actions in case any undesirable effects are detected. The Daily Log will provide a record of the relevant monitoring and inspection results. The site or duty manager for the project will fill out the Daily Log form twice each day and file it in a designated file in the project site office. An example Daily Log form is provided in Appendix A of this ADWP. The following information will be recorded in the Daily Log form: i)
Results of the visual inspections of dust emissions and wind conditions (see Section 4.2 for Visual Inspections procedures).
ii)
Any dust control equipment malfunctions and any remedial action(s) taken.
iii)
General weather conditions during the day (i.e., windy, calm, warm, rain, etc.).
iv)
The frequency of watercart and/or water sprinkling system use.
v)
Complaints received and responses to complaints.
vi)
The use of other mitigation measures, such as the use of chemical dust suppressants or covering of storage piles, and the reasons leading to their use.
vii)
The date, time and signature of the person entering the information.

10.0 AQDWP AUDITING AND REVIEW 10.1 Introduction This AQDWP may require review and amendment during the life of the project to reflect changes to activities, risks, mitigation measures, responsibilities and management processes. The ability to make changes to the AQDWP is an important aspect of continually improving the effectiveness of the AQDWP. A review process should also be undertaken once the demolition methods are finalised. Auditing and review will be undertaken by the ESM. Auditing and review will be used to provide an independent appraisal of the site’s performance in relation to the objectives of the AQDWP. The results of this review process will enable project staff, CRLL and Auckland Council to assess suitability, adequateness and effectiveness of site operations from an environmental perspective.
10.2
Auditing
Auckland Council may visit the site to undertake site inspections and assess compliance with the designation conditions. Site staff will be available to assist Auckland Council staff during these inspections and provide any information required. In particular, any information or records required to be available by any designation condition or resource consents held by CRLL will be kept on site and will be readily available upon request. All documentation relating to this AQDWP shall be appropriately filed for auditing and review purposes.
