Example of applications:

Low Cost Applications:

• Dust monitoring and take action immediately if limit exceeded for Respirable Suspended Particulates (RSP) or Total Suspended Particulates (TSP)
• Measures for reducing dust emissions from construction activities:
  • Effective water sprays to be used to water exposed working areas that can generate dust;
  • Fine particle materials on site to be enclosed and covered;
  • Wheel washing facilities to be installed and used by all vehicles leaving the site;
  • At the end of the works, all bare surface to be hydroseeded as soon as possible;
  • Triple barrier to be used for blocking fly debris;
  • Main haul roads to be hard paved with concrete or precast slabs;
  • Slopes to be paved with cement or covered with tarpaulin;
  • Dusty materials to be covered with tarpaulin;
  • Excavated soil to be sprayed with water before being loaded onto dump truck;
  • Water to be sprayed continuously and water cannons deployed during rock breaking;
  • Speed limit signage (8km/hr) to be erected;
  • CCTV monitoring to be used to ensure all dump trucks are covered with tarpaulin sheets before leaving the site;
  • Regular checks of black smoke emissions to be undertaken;
  • Tubular dust covers to be used for piling rigs;
  • ULSD testing to be conducted monthly.
• Temporary transformer rooms to reduce use of generators
• Plant and equipment with the NRMM green label (e.g. excavators, mobile cranes, generators, air compressors)

Sustainability KPI:

• Trend of performance from regular air monitoring results during contract period
• Percentage use of plant and equipment with a NRMM Green Label (%)
• Number of complaints received on air emissions and dust control, per project (no.)
• Number of regulation exceedances on air emissions and dust control, per project (no.)
