Summary This proposal seeks to combine Corporate Governance and best practise in Construction, especially within the design and build environment; and to confirm our strength in depth with over 150 years of experience as a major contracting entity. For every project we manage we implement a Construction Logistic Plan, which enables us to manage Environmental, Quality and Occupational Safety & Health at project level. The plan outlines the specific Environmental, Quality and Occupational Safety & Health management practices, resources and sequence of activities relevant to a contract or project. This Project Management Plan demonstrates our proposed methods and planning for the project, it specifically highlights the resources, programming, recording, risk management and consultation processes, coordination and cooperation, including the responsibilities, practices and procedures that will be employed on a single individual project. This document offers a focus on the delivery of the project with attention to the Employers Requirements, and the resultant Contractors Proposal’s namely:- compliance with the Employers deliverables, the CDM Regulations, engagement with all Stakeholders and the critical construction deliverables of the programme , cost, , quality and the Employers stated performance objectives. Our aim is to engage with all and to continually demonstrate through-out the delivery process that we are fully committed deliver the Employers expectations by delivering the Project to the combined expectation of all The main aim of this proposal is also to convey our approach to managing the various project activities and to ensure full compliance with all statutory provisions through-out the life cycle of the Project.

1 PROJECT MANAGEMENT DETAILS 1.0 SUMMARY OF PROJECT INFORMATION Demolition of existing buildings and the redevelopment of the site, including the erection of buildings ranging in height from 1 to 13 storeys to provide 170 residential units together with flexible commercial floorspace (Classes A1, A2, A3, A4, B1, D1 and D2), and office accommodation (class B1) with associated landscaping & public realm improvements.

1.1 SITE LAYOUT

1.2 MANAGEMENT 1.2.1.1.1 Management Team Function Our delivery team will consist of a core team of existing experienced and trusted Shapoorji staff who will be supported by locally engaged managers who, in the main, will be existing contacts of our senior management team within the UK and Europe All of the team will be experienced in successfully delivering Design and Build projects. The teams’ function will be to: -

• At all times to engage with the Employer and all Stakeholders to continually ensure through open communications that the needs and concerns of all are addressed

• As the Principle Contractor to ensure full Compliance with the CDM Regulations (2015)

• To engage with the Principal Designer, the Design Team and external consultants to deliver the best solution for the project.

• Work as one with the Professional Team and the Client’s Management Team to achieve the objectives and goals embraced by the client and published within this document

• Develop a team philosophy with Contractors so that there is a mutual understanding as to what must be achieved to meet the Client’s expectations.

of 62

• Employ our depth of management knowledge and previous experience of undertaking similar projects to achieve the best outcome for the Client

• Bring the Project in on time, and budget, to meet the Client’s aspirations. • Provide the relevant handover documentation and certification for the

project • That the mantra of “No-Surprises” is successfully applied from ‘cradle to

grave’ across the life cycle of the Project 1.2.1.1.2 Organogram

1.2.1.1.3 Management & Coordination of Subcontractors & Suppliers The Employer and all Stakeholders are engaged with to discuss and investigate all potential supply chain preferences and options in an attempt to offer best value in terms of performance and cost. This exercise is undertaken to support and supplement our existing supply chain contacts Once the various vendors have been identified Pre-contract Tender Meetings are held with the identified vendors to confirm their suitability and to confirm their interest. Once the proposed vendor list has been agreed formal Invitations to Tender are issued so the that supply chain can be brought to the table to: -

1. As required to work with the Principal Designer

2. To assist as requested with Design Reviews to validate best practise and to try and offer Value Engineering and programme savings

Prior to the award of any supply chain order and prior to commencement on site all sub-contractors are informed of the sites Quality, Health, Safety and Environmental requirements and their own plans are fully interrogated. Full compliance with CDM 2015 is mandatory.

of 62

As the Principal Contractor we, and our supply chain, need to work with the appointed Principal Designer during the pre-construction phase (design and planning stage) to ensure

that significant and foreseeable risks are managed throughout the design process. The Plan details the risks involved in this project and the control measures to eliminate/reduce those risks. We ensure that all vendors implement the required hazard identification, risk assessment and risk control procedures: compliance is mandatory, and a zero-tolerance policy is applied for any failures. All sub-contractors must nominate an individual who will co-ordinate their company quality and health and safety matters, and report to our Site Management team on all Quality, Health, Safety and Environmental matters. Sub-Contractors must comply with any directions given to them by the Project Supervisor for Construction. In addition, they must also comply with the provisions of all of the mandated EHS obligations set out in the Law and at all times be fully compliant with our requirements , regulations and the notified site rules: they must ensure that all their employees have received the appropriate level of health and safety training and information for the work’s on which they are engaged and for general site compliance. All sub-contractors must have their own Safety Statement available on site. Detailed duties and responsibilities should be outlined in their Safety Statement. Safety Statements must be signed by company director/owner and they must also;

• Set out arrangements for managing safety • Name the person(s) who has been appointed as a supervisor/foreman with

responsibility for safety on site. • Detail training such as safe pass and CSCS • Detail First aid arrangements • Identify all Manual Handling requirements and their controls • List PPE supplied by subcontractor • Agree accident reporting to the main contractor and to the HSA

Sub-contractors will have to sign a form (part of the Contractor’s Assessment Form) stating that they will comply with the provisions of this Plan prior to that sub-contractor commencing on site. Sub-contractors may, at any time, inspect this plan, which is kept in the Site Office. Subcontractors Performance We undertake regular performance reviews, site inspections and audits. These assessments are performed to evaluate each supply chain partners performance in relation to their: • Level of Workmanship • Quality Control • Teamwork • Adherence to Site Rules • Communication • Co-operation • Ability to work without close supervision/constant management • Flexibility and reliability

of 62

We also conduct a further assessment at the end of each project to determine whether the subcontractor has performed well enough to remain on our ‘approved’ list. As part of this assessment, we look at what lessons have been learnt from our perspective but also in relation to the sub-contractor/supply chain partner. At Shapoorji Pallonji we have built a considerable reputation amongst our sub-contractors for demanding, and only accepting, the highest standards of workmanship. If, at any time, a sub-contractor fails to meet our required standard they are issued with an improvement notice. Where a sub-contractor is guilty of a serious non- conformance they are immediately taken of site and their ‘approved’ status is removed.

1.5 LEGAL & OTHER REQUIREMENTS SP has drafted this plan in line with various national and regional policies in mind. The Traffic Management Act (2004) The act makes ‘provision in relation to the management of road networks; to make new provision for regulating the carrying out of works and other activities in the street’. It acknowledges that highways may be occupied due to construction activities and identifies appropriate changes levied for any extended occupation. Designing for Deliveries, Freight Transport Association (2006) Published in 2006, Designing for Deliveries, provides specifications for the size of delivery vehicles, turning radii and clearance requirements and should be used to ensure that delivery vehicles can safely and efficiently access the construction site. Delivering a Road Freight Legacy (2013) This document details how stakeholders can work together to deliver a freight management legacy for London and outlines a longer-term freight plan for the capital. Seven key elements are covered: Better planning; Improving safety; Re-timing deliveries and collections; Kerbside access; Increasing efficiency; Effective communications; and journey planning. The London Plan (2011) Addressing the key trends and challenges that London will face, this Mayor’s document pays particular attention to encouraging sustainable modes of travel. Policy 6.3 states that CLPs should be secured in line with the London Freight Plan and should be co-ordinated with Travel Plans. In addition, Policy 6.14 stresses the need to promote movement of freight by rail and waterway. Development proposals promoting the uptake of the Fleet Operators Recognition Scheme (FORS), CLPs and Delivery and Servicing Plans (DSP) to consolidate freight will be encouraged. The Mayor’s Transport Strategy (2010) Freight and servicing is frequently mentioned throughout this document which contains a strategy considering all methods of freight delivery including road, rail, pipeline, water, bicycles and air. The document especially highlights the importance of the London Freight Plan, DSPs, CLPs and FORS to encourage improved efficiency and provide a framework for incentivisation and regulation. In particular, Proposal 99 states that “the Mayor, through Transport for London (TfL) and working with the London Boroughs, road freight operators and other stakeholders, will:

• Aim for 50% of HGVs and vans serving London to be members of FORS by 2016;

of 62

• Encourage, and where appropriate specify, improved freight movement efficiency through, for example, greater consolidation, more off-peak freight movement and greater use of water and rail-based transport;

• Support freight industry land requirements for locally focussed consolidation and/or breakbulk facilities and access to waterways and railways”.

Proposal 117 acknowledges the incorporation of DSPs, CLPs and the FORS; “the Mayor, through TfL, and working with the London boroughs, and other stakeholders in the public and private sectors, will improve the efficiency and effectiveness of freight operations through the promotion of ‘delivery and servicing plans’, ‘construction logistics plans’, the Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme and other efficiency measures, across London”. The London Freight Plan (2007) The vision for sustainable freight distribution in London over the next five to ten years is for: “…the safe, reliable and efficient movement of freight and servicing trips to, from, within, and, where appropriate, through London to support London’s economy, in balance with the needs of other transport users, the environment and Londoners’ quality of life”. The Plan identifies FORS, DSPs, CLPs and the Freight Information Panel (FIP) as key projects for delivering freight more sustainably in London. Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme (FORS) FORS is a unique, industry-led, membership (bronze, silver, gold) scheme to help van and lorry operators become safer, more efficient and more environmentally friendly. It’s relevance to the CLP is via its mention in the Mayor’s Transport Strategy and requirements will be relayed to all operators engaged during the development.

2 CONSTRUCTION METHODOLOGY 2.0 PROJECT OUTLINE The site is located Axe Street Barking London. Demolition of existing buildings and the redevelopment of the site, including the erection of buildings ranging in height from 1 to 13 storeys to provide 170 residential units together with flexible commercial floorspace (Classes A1, A2, A3, A4, B1, D1 and D2), and office accommodation (class B1) with associated landscaping & public realm improvements Consideration is being given to the development of this site address: Axe Street, Barking IG117LX. Through the demolition and redevelopment of this site through the construction of one new building, the building comprises of stepped levels ranging from 2 to 13 stories. The 1st to 12th floor consists of accommodation and the ground floor will be commercial space. The development will house a total of 170 apartments Existing Site The Site is comprised of the former Abbey Sports Centre, a two storey brick building with a corrugated iron roof. The building has a large footprint that occupies the majority of the Site. The size of the current building provides limited public realm with a small area of vegetation provided where the building fronts the roundabout. The Site is bounded by Axe Street to the north, St Anne’s Road to the east, St Pauls Road to the south and the roundabout to the south west. The road network to the west and the south of the Site form the natural boundaries of Barking Town Centre with the wider town centre located to the north and east of the Site

2.1 IMPACT ON SURROUNDINGS There are some established constraints to accessing the Site, notably the following:

• Due to the nature of each site, parking will be an issue of concern. For reasons of Health and Safety, parking of contractors’ vehicles will not be permitted on the approach roads to the sites.

• The site has potential for active frontages on all sides, however, pedestrian footfall is likely to be less adjacent to primary roads (A123) compared to Axe Street and St Ann’s Road that are nearer to the town centre retail areas

• The surrounding land uses will continue to operate during the planned construction period, therefore the Applicant is committed to carrying out the works in the most practicably sustainable manner.

2.2 SITE ESTABLISHMENT 2.2.A.1.1 Welfare We will provide fully functional and compliant temporary site accommodation arrangements as part of our site set‐up. We will provide sufficient facilities for all parties including all Employer’s staff as required. These will include separate male/female and disabled toilets, drying rooms including lockers, fully resourced changing facilities and canteen etc., in accordance with current regulations. 2.2.A.1.2 Compound We will provide temporary hoardings/netting/screens around all work areas and maintain these to the highest standards for the duration of our work. This will ensure that construction works are always secure from unauthorized access and segregated from the public. We will agree the type, finish, extent, layout and decoration of all hoardings, nettings screens, with the Client prior to commencement on site.

of 62

Hoardings will be 2.4m high and comply with the HSE booklet HS (G) 151 “Protecting the Public” to the satisfaction of the Employer and the Local Authority. The hoarding design and erecting works will be carried out by a qualified hoarding contractor. Weekly inspections of the hoarding will be carried out by our Site Managers as part of the checks to all on site temporary works. 2.2.A.1.3 Wheel Wash All truck wheels will be washed on exit from site. Water from wheel washing areas can contain oil and diesel, as well as high levels of silt. The Site Foreman / Gateman will ensure that water from wheel washing and wash down areas is contained and not allowed to soak into surrounding ground. The wheel wash will have a self-contained water recirculation system. A tank will store water for washing purposes, a pump will re-circulate the water back into the tank during washing. Solids that settle at the base of the tank will be removed by a vacuum tanker. Water will only be discharged to the foul water system during the periodic replenishment of the used process water with fresh water.

2.3 SITE ACCESS Access/egress to the site will be via Axe Street for both pedestrians and via and Vehicular access. The main site entrance will be controlled by a Gateman at the main gate. A pedestrian gate with turnstile will be included in the hoarding for operatives/visitors arriving by foot. All visitors including site operatives will require a pass to enter the site. All roads and footpaths in the vicinity of the Site will be meticulously maintained and on completion of the works they will all be reinstated to the condition they were found in at the start of the works. All vehicles leaving the site will have the tyres and under carriage power hosed by the gateman to ensure no debris or dirt are brought outside of site and sullying the surrounding area. Road sweeps will be used on a regular basis to aid in the cleaning of the area around the site 2.3.A.1.1 Car parking Car parking for site workers will not be provided on site and all site staff will be encouraged to travel using sustainable transport means. Limited short stay waiting capacity will be available for those construction staff with site-specific needs (e.g. transporting significant apparatus etc.). The available area will be reviewed throughout the construction periods to ensure the potential overspill to surrounding streets is adequately controlled. All construction staff will be kept informed about acceptable travel and parking arrangements during the works. 2.3.A.1.2 Access/Egress to the Site Access and egress to the site will be via Axe Street for both pedestrians and Vehicular access. The main site entrance will be controlled by a Gateman at the main gate. A pedestrian gate with turnstile will be included in the hoarding for operatives/visitors arriving by foot. All visitors including site operatives will require a pass to enter the site. All roads and footpaths in the vicinity of the Site will be meticulously maintained and on completion of the works they will all be reinstated to the condition they were found in at the start of the works. All vehicles leaving the site will have the tyres and under carriage power hosed by the gateman

of 62

to ensure no debris or dirt are brought outside of site and sullying the surrounding area. Road sweeps will be used on a regular basis to aid in the cleaning of the area around the site The Site will at all-time be adequately protected by barriers to prevent unauthorised access (either accidental or deliberate). SP intent to install a 2.4 meter high solid hoarding to the entire site boundary. When the work has stopped for the day, the Site must be secured, all ladders and access must be removed, the plant must be immobilised, and all hazardous materials must be safely stored. 2.3.A.1.3 Local Roads The site is located along Axe Street, adjacent to the leisure centre. The site is surrounded on all four sides by roads. The A123 is the primary road to south east (St Pauls Road) and south west (Broadway). The secondary roads are Axe Street (1 way system & Site Access), to north west and St Ann’s Road to north east. To construct the proposed development some parking bay and footpath suspensions will be required at various times. These will be pre-arranged with TFL, the highways authority, and the local authorities. Currently it is envisaged that the following Traffic Regulation Orders will be required during the construction phase Footpath closure or partial thereof, along Axe Street to undertake the RC Frame and façade due to proximity to the footpath and public realm works Parking bay suspension to facilitate the public realm works. A road closure, timing and location to be confirmed, to allow for a tower cranes to be assembled and dismantled. At all times access to neighbouring properties will be maintained via redirecting traffic via various routes. 2.3.A.1.4 Nearby Railway Barking Railway Station is the nearest station located appox 900m from the development, however not within close proximity to cause any effect to the operations of these services. 2.3.A.1.5 Bus Routes Nearby bus routes include the 62, 287, 368 and 687 serving London and the surrounding area. As no bus routes pass along Axe Street no interference is envisaged, however should this alter SP will liaise with TFL to ensure minimal disruption to any service. 2.3.A.1.6 Cycle The local highway network has a network of footways which are wide and street lighting. The site is located adjacent to an existing signed cycle route which follows the alignment of Broadway heading north. A further quieter cycle route also passes the site along St Paul’s Road, providing access to the surrounding areas to the south and west of the site. Cyclist activity on the surrounding highway network and private access roads will be unhindered. We plan will note this route and make our supply chain aware of cycle safety. A Banksman will be available to ensure cyclist safety in conjunction with other vehicles.

2.4 SITE CONSTRAINTS There’re some established constraints to accessing the Site, notably the following The site has potential for active frontages on all sides, however, pedestrian footfall is likely to be less adjacent to primary roads (A123) compared to Axe Street and St Ann’s Road that are nearer to the town centre retail areas The surrounding land uses will continue to operate during the planned construction period; therefore the Applicant is committed to carrying out the works in the most practicably sustainable manner. It must be noted the surrounding land uses will continue to operate during the planned construction period, therefore SP is committed to carrying out the works in the most practicably sustainable manner. There is significant height, weight or width restrictions in the immediate vicinity of the Site as shown above, therefore forward planning with the local council on anticipated construction vehicles is a necessity. Furthermore, the Site lies within the boundary of the London Lorry Control Scheme (LLCS) which restricts the movement of HGVs in London at night and weekends. Enforced by London Councils, it applies to vehicles weighing more than 18 tonnes. It aims to limit noise pollution in residential areas. Restrictions apply between: 21:00 to 07:00, Monday to Friday; 13:00 to 07:00 Saturday. It is possible to operate a vehicle over 18 tonnes within the restricted area during restricted times, however prior approval must be sought. 2.4.A.1.1 Schools There is a primary school situated to the south west of the site along St Pauls Road. While the school is not in the immediate vicinity, it is likely pupils will be using adjacent footpaths to walk to nearby tube stations and transport links. The Community Engagement Officer will regularly contact the school to share information in order to maximise child and pedestrian safety. 2.4.A.1.2 Neighbouring Construction Sites Axe street development has no neighbouring construction sites. When the works schedule is known, trip generation analysis will be cross-referenced to ensure precautions are taken to lower any compounding peak vehicle movements. The same procedure will be performed for any other construction sites in the area. In addition to vehicle analysis, an SP will collaborate on shared services such as marshalling areas, vehicle holding areas and stakeholder engagement. 2.4.A.1.3 Neighbour Relations We acknowledge that many parties will have an interest in this project throughout the duration of the contract. Our presence during the construction phase will have a direct impact on the local environment, particularly the following: • Planning Authority • Building Control • Environmental Health • Utilities providers • Adjacent properties

of 62

• Residents committee • Local law enforcement • Fire service Our Project Manager will be responsible for project strategic liaison whilst the site Managers will be responsible for day to day liaison and logistics for all of the construction related activities. Both will be permanently based on site with the site Managers as the first point of contact for all concerns, issues and complaints. Any complaints received will be logged, assessed and appropriate action taken as soon as is practical. We will actively seek liaison with all parties throughout the pre-construction and construction periods. It will be critical to the success of the project that key issues are properly addressed from the outset to create a good working relationship and an integrated team approach to resolving potential issues before they arise. Workshops and forums will be held on a regular basis to maintain open relationships and keep stakeholders up to date on construction progress and its impact on all third parties. Newsletters, liaison meetings, progress photos, organised site visits are all methods we will use to communicate how we intend to carry out the works and keep people informed. This process is part of the Considerate Constructors scheme that we automatically register with, and by which we are independently monitored and assessed.

2.5 SECURITY PROVISIONS We will adequately safeguard the site, the works, products, materials, plant, and any existing buildings affected by the Works from damage and theft. Issues such as noise, pollution and nuisance will be kept to an absolute minimum so as not to infringe on the rights of neighboring owners/tenants. Site entry will be restricted to personnel solely involved in the construction process during working hours and also to prevent unauthorised access out of hours. Site access for all personnel and visitors will be strictly controlled and all visitors will report to the site offices prior to entering the construction area. CCTV cameras covering the entrance and boundaries will be installed, linking back to the security office. The site will be monitored through 24‐ hrs CCTV security. All personnel and visitors entering the site will be required to sign‐in and made aware of safety issues associated with the construction process and emergency procedures to evacuate the site as part of the site‐specific induction. All visitors will be issued with safety helmets and any other appropriate protective clothing will be escorted by a responsible member of the site team.

Demolition is relatively minor on this scheme and mainly consists of breaking up of the current RC Slab beneath the west Building. This material will be crushed on site and reused on site to prevent material been delivered in its absence. On completion of the above phase construction shall swiftly move onto The Piling works followed by the ground beams and GF floor slab. The below ground drainage shall also be incorporated within this timeline. Prior to the construction of the Ground Floor slab the remediation strategy as carried out by GEA for Planning Condition 35 will have been sign off and approved by the relevant inspector. A Demo and Waste management plan will be prepared to ensure that waste arisings during the construction and demolition phases of the project will be managed and disposed of in a way that ensures the provisions of the CDM Regulation 2015 and Health and Safety in Construction (HSG150) and The Environmental Protection Act 1990 It will also ensure that optimum levels of waste reduction, reuse and recycling are achieved. This plan aims to ensure waste prevention, maximum recycling and recovery of waste with diversion from landfill, wherever possible. It also seeks to provide guidance on the appropriate collection and transport of waste to prevent issues associated with litter or more serious environmental pollution (e.g. contamination of soil or water resources). Demolition Methodology will include the systematic demolition by mechanical excavator (approx. 15 tonne). Removal off site by a second similar sized mechanical excavator loading highways complaint (FORS) haulage Lorries for processing off site and reuse. Plant Machinery • 2No. 30 tonne mechanical excavators • 1No. Compressor (Diesel) • 1No. Jack Hammer • 4No. Haulage Lorries Pollution Controls • Dust mitigation by means of dampening down works interfaces with water sprays • Plant Machinery compliant with Stage V NRMM • Material Transfer to highways mitigated by 24/7 entry & exit wheel wash • Covered haulage 2.7.A.1.2 RC Frame Upon completion of the relevant floor plate the RC Frame shall commence.

or mast climbers and Goods hoists shall be erected around each building once the RC Frame has had the back props removed. 2.7.A.1.3 Façade Works The SFS framing will start on the ground floor once the RC Frame is sufficiently elevated and will work up the building floor by floor until works are complete. Windows will be installed following the installation of the SFS. Once the ground floor framing is complete the windows will follow. This sequence will follow up the façade. The SFS will be follow by the external brickwork leaf on a level by level basis. 2.7.A.1.4 Internal works The internal finished will commence as soon as the windows have been installed and the building is adequately watertight on each floor. 2.7.A.1.5 Landscaping works The Landscaping works will be undertaken following the completion of the façade and subsequent striking out the mast climbers. The landscaping works will be in progress whilst the internal fit out is ongoing. 2.7.A.1.6 Commissioning Programme: A detailed Commissioning Programme will be developed in line with our M&E design and works schedule. 2.7.A.1.7 Labour/Resource Programme: Furthermore, SP during pre-commencement stage, will compile a detailed labour and resource programme which is in line in the main programme where resources are uploaded to each task bar in the programme. Labour Histograms for the project have been can then extracted from the Resource Programme. 2.7.A.1.8 Quality Control: SP has a Quality Management System in place fully compliant to ISO 9001:2015. This ensures that our quality system, checking, documentation control and record keeping are in line with the highest standards within the industry. We are also registered with the International Certification Network. Measures for ensuring quality are met through our Quality and Procedures Manual which detail all our organisation systems responsibilities, inspection and test plan procedures, which are fully described to ensure that all essential inspection requirements are determined and satisfied throughout all phases of the works. We will use priority software to track all quality checks and inspections. The software used will be BIM 360 Field which is linked to the Revit model of the project. 2.7.A.1.9 Check Sheets, Witnessing Sign Off SP has a full suite of check sheets to ensure that each element of the works is checked, signed off and is fully compliant with the Works Requirements, Specifications Drawings and all contract documents. For each and every activity there is a proforma quality control sheet that will be signed off by both our own personnel and those of the Subcontractors / Specialists. Each element of the works will be signed off and witnessed every step of the way by all relevant parties. This will safeguard and ensure that all works is fully compliant and fit for its intended purpose. In terms of MEP, the Services Coordinator and Commissioning Manager will be responsible for inspecting, witnessing, testing and signing off all stages of the Building Services

• Our sequence of working will generally follow that shown on our master programme, along with our programme, this document provides a detailed explanation of our approach and methodology to demonstrate the phasing of the works from pre-commencement activities, construction, testing, commissioning and handover of the completed project.

• Furthermore, the following narrative demonstrates that our tender programme is very specific and fully integrates the management of preconstruction, design development, procurement and construction delivery. The detailed and specific programme outlines all activities and milestones and are broken down as per the key specialists / trades.

• The programme also identifies key links between the separate specialists / trades on the project. In addition, the programme also demonstrates that SP fully understands the key issues associated with the project and identifies those materials which are long lead items and the estimated duration from ordering to delivery.

Pre-Commencement

3.2 CONSTRUCTION METHOD STATEMENTS Method statements will be generated throughout the project by SP and our subcontractors. A register of method statements required on the project will be formulated at commencement stage and updated as the project evolves. Method statements will be available for review by the design team on request.

3.3 TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT & DELIVERY PLANS The Traffic Management Plan minimises the impact of construction on the free flow of traffic on the local highway network and in the interests of highway safety, and in accordance with policy BR10 of the Borough Wide Development Policies Development Plan Document and policy 6.3 of the London Plan Objectives of this Plan This traffic management plan is designed to control the movement of traffic, both public & site related and to safely co-ordinate the delivery and loading/offloading of materials and products. The plans main objectives will be to: • To warn all personnel of any hazards that may exist. • To protect all site workers, members of the public & drivers alike, from any injury

involving site vehicles. • To eliminate any risks to the public by segregating pedestrians and local traffic from

vehicles. • To reduce the need for vehicles to reverse wherever possible and provide traffic

control measures. • To limit crossing of pedestrians and vehicles as much as is possible. • To control all site vehicles during movement, reversing and turning, so that no injury

or damage may occur.

of 62

• To minimise the impact of the construction works on local traffic to the existing building.

A traffic management plan will be implemented on the site. The plan will outline timings of deliveries and routes to be taken by hauliers to minimise disruption to local residents and businesses. This includes the potential risk for noise disturbance as well as minimising additional traffic during peak periods. In an attempt to reduce vehicles attending site the Principal Contractor will target the following items: Procurement of local sub-contractors and labour. • Procurement of local suppliers. • Combined deliveries. • Cycle parking on-site for staff. • Encourage and reward car sharing. • Encourage the use of public transport, time tables and routes available in the site off

notice boards. • Any site meetings to commence outside peak hours. • Any meeting that does not have to be on site will not. • Adopt any learning from the other local surrounding projects • Where practicable coordinate major construction operations so as not to conflict

with other projects It is intended for deliveries to take place within the Site utilising the one-way access road along Axe Street. Should kerbside deliveries be necessary, by exception, the Principal Contractor will plan for traffic management measures. Vulnerable Road Users The operation of the construction site will comply with the Construction Logistics and Cyclist Safety (CLOCS) initiative. This will extend beyond the Site boundary to include, where possible, supply chain vehicles etc. we will ensure all deliveries made through our supply chain for the Axe Street project are Fleet Cyclists Cyclist activity on the surrounding highway network and private access roads will be unhindered, but traffic management measures will need to be adhered to as with any other highway user. During normal deliveries Banksmen will be able to ensure cyclist safety in conjunction with other vehicles. It is not anticipated that cycle movements will be disrupted as all necessary storage and works are expected to take place within the Site boundary. Pedestrians At this stage it is proposed that a hoarding would be provided at the Site boundary leaving footways open during the initial stages of construction. There will be a requirement to carry out a footpath closure during parts of construction for pedestrian safety.

of 62

We will arrange the necessary footpath and scaffold licences required throughout the process with the local authorities and will ensure all pedestrians will be directed to alternative routes using a signage layout compliant with Chapter 8 of the Traffic Sign Deliveries will be restricted to the period between 08:00 and 18:00. Pedestrian routes will not be blocked during deliveries and collections, unless a temporary road or footway closure is in operation. In such circumstances appropriate alternative routes and signage will be provided. Site management will conduct routine daily and weekly checks to ensure the safety and security of pedestrians around the Site are maintained. This will form part of the overall monitoring strategy, reporting to the Council and local parties as necessary. The contractor's procedure for governing the interaction of pedestrians and deliveries will be presented in more detail in this section. Traffic Routing Access Location: It is proposed to direct delivery and collection vehicles to the site via the existing access point along Axe street. The existing access point is accessible from St Pauls Rd which in turn is only a short distance from the North Circular. It is envisaged both drop kerbs will be utilised to facilitate additional unloading areas should needs must. During normal construction operations there will be no need for temporary traffic management controls or alterations to waiting restrictions. If such measures are needed for specific exceptional construction operations, the Principal Contractor will secure the necessary approvals or permits in advance Deliveries It should be noted that shared access roads along the site boundaries will remain open to general traffic in order to maintain access to existing commercial premises adjoining the site during the works. If deliveries etc. arrive without a pre-booked slot, they will be refused and will exit the area via the agreed lorry routes back to the TLRN, if required. SP will later demonstrate that site can accommodate he peak flow at all times. The use of any other residential streets in the area by construction lorries will not be permitted. All movements will accord with the Councils guidance and will ensure the carriageway remains open at all times (unless subject to a Temporary Road Closure). Notifications and applications to the Council, if additional traffic management measures are required, will take place in good time. All deliveries to site will be carefully controlled and managed by the Site Manager, and the procurement team. Use of online booking coordination systems will be considered to improve reliability. Operations will also consider other construction activities in the area.

of 62

Deliveries will be coordinated to avoid multiple vehicle arrivals at any one time. In the event of delivery vehicles arriving to Site simultaneously, the unscheduled vehicle will be asked to leave, park up in permissible areas, and return to Site after an agreed period. It is noted previously there is some limited on-street capacity available along the Axe Street. All traffic management proposals will be regularly reviewed with the Council's highway engineers and the appropriate orders, licenses sought in good time.

3.4 TEMPORARY WORKS SP will ensure that all temporary works required for the works are to be timely approved by a qualified structural engineer who holds appropriate professional indemnity insurance cover and appointed by the subcontractor. Approval by the subcontractors’ engineer must be made / received prior to the subcontract works or phase of the subcontract works commencing on site. The subcontractor must ensure that all risks of job specific PPE have been undertaken & provided for (e.g. hard hats, safety boots, hi – viz clothing). The list is not exhaustive & it is the subcontractor’s responsibility to carry out a full risk assessment and COSHH assessment of the exposure to the employee / visitors & what PPE is required.

3.5 CORONAVIRUS / COVID 19 OR SIMILAR OUTBREAK These are exceptional circumstances and the industry must comply with the latest Government advice on Coronavirus at all times. The health and safety requirements of the site activity must also not be compromised at this time. If an activity cannot be undertaken safely due to a lack of suitably qualified personnel being available or social distancing being implemented, it should not take place. If a site is not consistently implementing the measures set out below, it may be required to shut down. Self-Isolation Anyone who meets one of the following criteria should not come to site: • Has a high temperature or a new persistent cough • Is a vulnerable person (by virtue of their age, underlying health condition, clinical

condition or are pregnant)? • Is living with someone in self-isolation or a vulnerable person. Procedure if Someone Falls Ill • If a worker develops a high temperature or a persistent cough while at work, they

should: • Return home immediately • Avoid touching anything • Cough or sneeze into a tissue and put it in a bin, or if they do not have tissues, cough

and sneeze into the crook of their elbow. They must then follow the guidance on self-isolation and not return to work until their period of self-isolation has been completed. Travel to Site Wherever possible workers should travel to site alone using their own transport and sites need to consider: • Other means of transport to avoid public transport (eg cycling) • How someone taken ill would get home

of 62

Hand Washing • Ensure soap and fresh water is readily available and kept topped up, where possible. • Provide hand sanitizer where hand washing facilities are unavailable, where possible. • Regularly clean the hand washing facilities and check soap and sanitizer levels. Toilet Facilities • Restrict the number of people using toilet facilities at any one time. • Wash hands before and after using the facilities. Canteens and Eating Arrangements Whilst there is a requirement for working sites to provide a means of heating food and making hot drinks, these are exceptional circumstances and where it is not possible to introduce a means of keeping equipment clean between use, kettles, microwaves etc. must be removed from use. The workforce should also be advised to stay on site once they have entered it and not use local shops: • Dedicated eating areas should be identified on site to reduce food waste and

contamination • Break times should be staggered to reduce congestion and contact at all times. • The workforce should be asked to bring pre-prepared meals and refillable drinking

bottles from home • Workers should sit 2 metres apart from each other whilst eating and avoid all

contact • Drinking water should be provided with enhanced cleaning measures of the tap

mechanism introduced • Tables should be cleaned between each use • All rubbish should be put straight in the bin and not left for someone else to clear up • All areas used for eating must be thoroughly cleaned at the end of each break and

shift. Avoid Close Working There will be situations where it is not possible or safe for workers to distance themselves from each other by 2 metres. General Principles • Non-essential physical work that requires close contact between workers should not be carried out. • Work requiring skin to skin contact should not be carried out. • Plan all other work to minimise contact between workers. • Re-usable PPE should be cleaned after use and not shared between workers. • Single use PPE should be disposed of so that it cannot be reused. • Increase ventilation in enclosed spaces. • Regularly clean the inside of vehicle cabs between use by different operators. Site Meetings during COVID19 • Only absolutely necessary meeting participants should attend. • Attendees should be 2 metres apart from each other. • Rooms should be well ventilated / windows opened to allow fresh air circulation. • Consider holding meetings in open areas where possible.

of 62

Cleaning Enhanced cleaning procedures should be in place across the site, particularly in communal area and at touch points including: • Taps and washing facilities • Toilet flush and seats • Door handles • Food preparation and eating surfaces • Telephone equipment • Keyboards, printers and other office equipment

of 62

4 ENVIRONMENTAL & WATE MANAGEMENT PLAN Good planning of site welfare facilities will be an essential part of the works to ensure mitigation of both dust and odour emissions. The location of site skips or waste bins will be located away from areas close to public interface. Skips should be sealed and regularly exchanged to ensure that excessive odour is not released. Measures shall be taken to prevent the occurrence of any nuisance arising as a result of any activities on the Project. The ISO9001 complaints procedure shall be utilised on the project and contact numbers communicated to all personnel and displayed on office notice boards

4.0 WASTE MANAGEMENT This waste management plan (WMP), details the actions that SP will carry out to minimise waste on construction projects. This WMP is a live document and will be periodically reviewed for its continual suitability and effectiveness. This plan complies with the requirements of: • Control of Pollution Act 1974 • Environmental Protection Act 1990 • The Site Waste Management Plans Regulations 2008 • Control of Waste (England & Wales) Regulations 2012 • Waste Management Framework Directive - 2008/98/EC • EWC – Decision 200/532/EC This Waste Management Plan is an important tool that allows SP to monitor and improve environmental performance, meet regulatory commitments and help to reduce waste disposal costs. Hence, the aim of this WMP is to determine the waste types and amounts to be produced during design and construction and to identify appropriate waste management controls and solutions. The role of Waste Manager will be assumed by the Quality & Environmental Manager who acts as the overall Environmental Co-ordinator. The Waste Manager will: • advise and instruct construction teams on how to meet legal and contractual requirements • develop and implement the Site Waste Management Plan as part of the Environmental Management Plan for the Project • identify and implement ways to reduce, reuse and recycle waste with a preference given to reusing and recycling of waste within the Project • classify waste categories and characterisation prior to removal from site • work with the Health & Safety Manager to provide training and information on waste • provide reports on progress and any problems with waste issues • work closely with construction teams • liaise with external parties as necessary • Ensure all Waste Management Licensing / Environmental Permits and Exemptions are current and sufficient for the Project requirements • Demonstrate a good knowledge and practical experience of developing and implementing Site Waste Management Plans. The Waste Manager will be assisted by the Project Manager, who will: • support the development and implementation of the Site Waste Management Plans

of 62

• identifying ways to reduce, reuse and recycle waste with a preference given to reusing and recycling of waste within the Project ensuring waste categories and segregation has been carried out prior to the waste being removed from site • Work with the project team to provide information on waste; and • Provide reports on progress and any problems with waste issues SP Waste Management Plan centres around the fundamental waste management prioritisation principles of prevent/reduce, reuse, recycle & dispose. SP Waste Management Plan Priority 1 Waste Prevention / Avoidance / Reduction Either avoid or reduce the production of waste. Eliminate or minimise the production of hazardous entering the waste stream Priority 2 Re-Use Putting materials back into construction processes or re-purpose them to avoid re-entry to the waste stream Priority 3 Recovery This includes recycling a material or composting or similar. Recycling is the preferred option. Use best practice environmental option available. Priority 4 Disposal To be avoided where ever possible Options involve landfill, incineration or permanent destruction (specialist) The Project Delivery Team will ensure that each WMP component, where applicable, is adequately addressed. To ensure all aspects of this WMP are complied with, regular audits will be made by the Waste Manager during bi/weekly site waste inspections. The Project Delivery Team will also ensure that all SP employees and subcontractors’ staff are provided with appropriate training (e.g., tool box talks) so that everyone understands the requirements of this WMP and the site Waste Management approach. The site team will apply the above principles throughout the project process. This will mean that rather than just dealing with waste management at site level “on the ground”, waste management will be part of the whole project process – during design, procurement and construction. Materials of specific environmental and hazardous natures such as asbestos or heavy metals that are encountered during the construction phase will be handled, removed and disposed of by a specialist licensed environmental carrier. 4.0.1.1.1 Procurement Throughout the construction phase the Project Delivery Team should ensure that: • Only the correct amount of materials required are ordered • 'Just in time' deliveries are arranged to reduce storage and material losses • The amount of packaging used for materials delivered to the site is reduced or recycled as much as possible • Deliveries are rejected if materials are damage

of 62

4.0.1.1.2 Monitoring SP will monitor and measure the waste involved on the project. The Project Delivery Team will record the quantity of waste categorised into the following criteria: Reduction & Prevention of Waste In line with good modern industry practice, all efforts will be made by the Project Delivery Team to minimize the creation of waste throughout the job. There are several keyways in which this can be dealt with. In order of preference, these are: • Re-use of a material on site • Re-use of a material off site • Recycling of a material for use on-site • Recycling of a material for use off-site • Sending of material to a recycling facility • Sending of a material to WML facility as ‘exempt’ under terms of EWC • Disposal of material to landfill or other processing facility under terms of EWC Some practical applications of the above are: • Cutting back on the amount of wastage for trimming of material etc. for example cutting of plywood, built into the amount ordered. • Educating foremen and others to cut/use materials such as ply wisely for shutters etc • To re-use shutters, formwork and temporary works materials as much as possible by careful planning throughout the job. • Recycling of paper generated on site. • Increasing the use of electronic transmittal of documents and drawings, as opposed to paper. • Sending an item of formwork to another SP site, where that item could be used (assuming no further use is possible without generating costly waste at this site In addition, there are a number of steps that can be taken in order to prevent the creation of waste in the first instance, thus negating the need to deal with the waste product. These are as follows: 4.0.1.1.3 Material Recycling Options Recycling Wherever possible, materials shall be recycled. There will be a skip located in the site compound for the recovery of paper/cardboard and plastic containers. It is the responsibility of the SP Safety & Health Manager to ensure safe egress and control access to these skips at all times. Once full a recycling company will collect the contents of this bin. Modern recycling techniques mean that many construction materials can be recycled. Taking cognisance of this, SP will ensure that, where reasonably practicable and economically acceptable, recycling will be carried out with as many materials as possible. The following is a guide: Timber: The recycling of timber is a three-stage process. The process includes shredding, screening and metal segregation to produce a woodchip. The low moisture content from recycled timber provides an advantage over virgin wood stock, reducing utility costs prior to manufacturing wood chip board or as a secondary fuel source in an organic ‘waste to energy’

of 62

process. The use of recycled wood also preserves virgin wood stock. SP will actively re-use timber on this or other SP sites, with recycling to be used for large volumes. Glass: Glass cullet can be processed at a rate of 10 tonnes per hour, to produce screened fractions of glass to recycle into a variety of industrial uses, (providing colour is not an issue). Markets such as water filtration, shot blasting with abrasive characteristics, paint additives with light reflecting properties and acoustic attenuators and insulation are able to utilise recycled glass. However, it is not though that sufficiently large volumes of glass will be generated on site to warrant recycling, although this will be constantly reviewed. Fluorescent tubes: The mercury powder contained within these is a valuable resource and can be re-cycled where sufficient amounts of tubes are available. Paper: Paper will be put into the paper re-cycling bin on site. The full bags are put in the wheelie bin and collected regularly for transportation to the nearest processing facility. The sorted and baled paper is then sent to paper mills for recycling. Plastics: The availability of recycling of plastics generated on site will depend on the type and amount of plastics generated. Whilst low-density polyethylene (LDPE) used for plastic film - shrink wrap, stretch wrap etc, can be recycled, as can HDPE, PET and PVC used for bottles and Polystyrene (PS) used for drinks cups and packaging, consideration needs to be given to quality, quantity and the cost of getting it out of waste and to the processor. With this project, as nearly all plastic would need to be baled for transport and storage and this would generally demand an 'on site' baler, this approach would not be practicable or economically viable given the amount of plastics of the above types likely to be generated. Storage of Waste on Site Waste stored on site, whether from construction activity or general consumer waste from the site facilities etc., shall be stored in a safe manner to minimise the likelihood of cross-contamination, further pollution, vandalism or vermin infestation. This will involve using various storage mechanisms and ensuring the proper segregation of waste. Segregation of waste shall include provision of appropriately signed and classified storage areas/skips, using various signs to assist the site team and operatives with the process of storing and sorting waste. Typical signs are shown overleaf.

4.1 ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROL MEASURES 4.1.1.1.1 Environmental Plan This plan is prepared in accordance with the requirements of EN ISO14001:2015 This Construction Phase Environmental Management Plan has been prepared to detail and outline how SP will manage and control the environmental aspects of this project.

of 62

SP seek to achieve the highest standard of environmental performance for this project. The application of this plan is fundamental to achieving this aim. The Objectives of the Construction Phase Environmental Management Plan are: To set out the responsibilities, key actions required for the successful implementation of best practice environmental management on the project • To maximise potential benefits of the proposed works • To identify potential negative impacts • To set out specific mitigation measures for these impacts • To provide guidance on compliance with accepted best practice standards • To inform all parties of environmental sensitivities of the site • To guide works toward best environmental practice at all times • To provide protection of the site and environs during and after works • To ensure compliance with accepted best practice standards Summary of the Environmental Management Process The SP Environmental Management System (EMS) (forms part of the Integrated Management System IMS), encompasses various documents, procedures, forms and policies. These elements form the overall Management Systems for project environmental management: These main project control documents include: 1. Construction Phase Environmental Management Plan 2. Construction Phase Waste Management Plan (In conjunction with SmartWaste) 3. Construction Phase Quality Plan 4.0.1.1.1 Environmental Records In order to demonstrate compliance with legal, other stakeholder requirements and this management plan, site records will be controlled, maintained and archived appropriately to facilitate retrieval at a later date, if required. All records demonstrating environmental compliance shall be retained until all legal requirements have subsided The SP Environmental Policy statement is relevant to the works and project undertaken by SP and is fully endorsed by the Directors and Senior Management Team. This policy, together with the application of the Environmental Management System is the means in which SP seek to achieve the highest standard of environmental performance. SP expect both the personnel and subcontractors representing SP do so in-line with the ethos of this policy. 4.0.1.1.2 Project Specific Environmental Aspects & Issues SP recognise the importance of the earliest identification of site characteristics, stakeholder receptors and construction process & method related environmental risk(s) “aspects”. Our Quality & Environmental Manager in conjunction with the Health & Safety Manager and Project Manager will identify project aspects and detail their impacts on the project Aspects & Impacts Register, The Aspects & Impacts Register shall be populated and maintained by the Project Manager, detailing the mitigation measures required to minimise the impact to the environment. The register should highlight the risk indicators and assign responsibilities for their monitoring. Risk indicators are events that “may” provide indication that an identified risk is about to mature in to an issue. A typical example would be uncontrolled concrete run off “may” cause pollution of a watercourse.

of 62

4.0.1.1.3 Project Specific Environmental Controls Prevention of Pollution Good planning of site welfare facilities will be an essential part of the works to ensure mitigation of both dust and odour emissions. Temporary portable toilets will be regularly cleaned and maintained, and the location of site skips or waste bins will be located away from areas close to public interface. Skips should be sealed and regularly exchanged to ensure that excessive odour is not realised. Similarly, regular checking of portable toilet facilities will be effected so as to ensure prompt cleaning and removal by licenced tanker from the portable units, thus prevents the generation of unacceptable odour. SP will adopt a best practice approach to the management of site operations so as to ensure the best possible pollution prevention and control mechanisms on the project. Avoiding Public Nuisance Measures shall be taken to prevent the occurrence of any nuisance arising as a result of any activities on the Project. The ISO9001 complaints procedure shall be utilised on the project and contact numbers communicated to all personnel and displayed on office notice boards. In the event of an environmental nuisance complaint being received, these must be logged on Emergency Incident Report SP will endeavour to minimise nuisance, however when construction operations require out of hours working we will carry out the following procedures: • Consult and gain agreement from the relevant planning authority prior to any operation likely to cause out of hours noise or light nuisance • Carry out letter drops to local residents and businesses at least 48 hours prior to any operations where we may cause a nuisance • Inform the emergency services and local press Lighting Management • All lighting will be directional and will be directed towards the activity or secured area • All task lighting will be sufficient for the job, not over lit Whilst working adjacent to live traffic, • task lighting will be positioned to avoid any glare to road users • If complaints are received we will stop the operation (if possible) and investigate the working method and endeavour to stop the light nuisance • Lights will never be left on if no work is being carried out • Existing street lighting will be utilised where possible • If existing street lights are removed temporarily for construction, these will always be replaced with a similar standard of lighting coverage where required. Vehicles and Traffic Management As well as the provision of a Traffic Management Designer as detailed elsewhere, we will employ a TSCO (Traffic Safety Control Officer) for the implementation of Traffic Management. The TSCO shall ensure all TM is approved and placed in accordance with the required legislation. The Highways Agency and Police must agree all traffic diversions and closures prior to installation.

of 62

Emergency services and bus companies will always be consulted prior to any formal approaches for traffic closures and diversions. All traffic management systems will be placed by trained, experience and authorised operatives. It is an offence for untrained staff or operatives to change or adapt traffic management. Anybody caught doing so, will be disciplined. Parking on Site There will be on-site parking provided for subcontractors. To minimise the amount of onsite parking, SP will inform subcontractors that access to the site most be achieved through shared transport (Minibus). Formal arrangements for additional parking will be made with the hotel development opposite the site for rental of additional parking spaces. Car usage and parking will be actively discouraged at SP projects. Operatives and staff, parking cars elsewhere, will be informed at induction to follow these procedures: • Where possible always park in recognised parking places • Never park in private property • Never obstruct private accesses • Never leave mud on the road • Never park on pavements • Act in a courteous manner to all other public road users. Unloading of Plant and Materials Each delivery driver involved in deliveries to construction sites should clearly define and allocate responsibility for this role. All materials should be correctly loaded and secured in accordance with the Code of Practice on Safe Loading of Goods Vehicles. All drivers delivering to site should always wear PPE when out of the vehicle and descending from the cab. The following guidance will be adhered to for each delivery

• Report to site office before entry

• Undertake Driver induction / briefing

• Enter Site

• Vehicle routes on sites will be clearly marked.

• Reversing should be kept to a minimum a

• Overhead hazards will be clearly identified

• The driver will be guided to the location of loading / unloading and storage areas by the site manager

Note there is little on-site storage space Access Locations Agreed access locations will be defined in consultation with the Employers Representative. These will be clearly marked and signed. Signage All temporary traffic signage will be placed as per Chapter 8 guidelines and placed with Local Authority traffic and police approval. Temporary traffic signage will be inspected daily and after inclement weather and a Traffic Management Team will be on site during all major traffic management set ups to ensure compliance. Businesses that may be obscured or indirectly impacted by the construction works will be clearly signed.

of 62

Road Sweeping Road sweepers will be directed by the construction programme to target high volume traffic movements. Wherever possible, road sweeping will be utilised outside peak traffic flows to minimise traffic disruption. Dust Control & Monitoring Dust levels will be continuously monitored throughout the course of the project. Monitors will be positioned at points along the perimeter hoarding – monthly reports will be produced based on the data collected by these monitors. Dust suppression will be carried out as and when required using water/power hoses, particularly during the groundwork’s stages and during times of dry weather. Concrete Washout Bays A designated concrete washout bay will be located away from existing drainage infrastructure in order to avoid contamination. Wheel Washing Facilities Effective wheel/body washing facilities to be provided and used as necessary; all vehicles entering/leaving site will be routinely inspected by SP gatemen for contaminants/debris.

4.2 FLORA, FAUNA & INVASIVE SPECIES 4.2.1.1.1 Flora The key deliverable is to minimise any impact on native trees and shrubs. All trees, hedges and shrubs within or adjacent to the site, except those that have been approved for removal shall be protected from damage during construction work by the erection of ‘Heras’ Fencing. Wherever possible the removal of any flora will be limited and removal will only be carried out with the prior approval of the Client and Quality & Environmental Manager. Removal of tress and saplings will only be carried out where absolutely required, and replacement of trees, post works, will be carried out wherever possible. 4.0.1.1.1 Fauna Wherever possible the project will avoid disturbing any fauna within/near to the project works. Any fauna observed will be monitored and avoidance techniques utilised. To minimise marine habitat species loss or disturbance, efforts will be made to keep the area of shore disturbed by any pipeline trenches to a minimum. To protect the aquatic environment, chemicals and oils used shall be those approved for use in, or with the least potential for causing damage to, the marine environment. 4.0.1.1.2 Invasive Species Invasive non-native plant and animal species are the second greatest threat to biodiversity worldwide after habitat destruction. They can negatively impact on native species, can transform habitats and threaten whole ecosystems causing serious problems to the environment and the economy. The transport or introduction of Invasive species can result in deterioration in water quality and significant fish mortality, dramatically alter the ecology of receiving watercourses and render them unavailable for recreational and other water-based pursuits. On commencement of the project, the Quality & Environmental Manager will prepare a risk assessment on invasive species. This risk assessment will be informed by discussions with the client team, the project ecologist, Local Authority and other stakeholders and will form the

of 62

basis of actions taken during the construction period. This EMP will be updated to reflect these actions.

4.3 TRAINING (TOOLBOX TALKS) 4.0.1.1.1 Training SP will provide training at various levels and to varying degrees to ensure adequate understanding and competence when managing environmental issues. Senior and Project Management shall be trained to competently manage day-to-day environmental issues under HSQE guidance. All SP personnel will be trained to understand environmental issues, the policies encompassed in the SP Environmental Management System and its objectives. Supply chain subcontractors and suppliers shall be inducted into the approach to environmental management SP expect and where relevant the objectives of the Construction Phase Environmental Management Plan and the Company Environmental Management System policies and objectives. 4.0.1.1.1 Toolbox Talks Toolbox talks are the means to which SP shall communicate specific environmental issues, management and control measures to personnel and supply chain subcontractors. The content of environmental toolbox talks necessary to ensure adequate management shall be detailed in all RAMS documentation and derived from Environmental Aspects & Impacts Register specific to the project. The Project Manager is responsible for ensuring RAMS are suitable and thorough, communicated and understood by any and all personnel whose actions may lead to environmental damage. The Project Manager will ensure environmental risks identified on Environmental Aspects & Impacts Register are communicated to all supply chain subcontractors prior to their submission of RAMS for approval. 4.3.1.1.1 Auditing All SP projects are subject to regular audit by the HSQE Department. Audits are conducted by either the Health & Safety Manager for OHSAS18001 and by the Quality & Environmental Manager for ISO9001 & ISO14001 issues. The Directors of SP UK also undertake audits and inspections. The requirements of this plan shall be evaluated by the Project Manager and Quality & Environmental Manager. The audit regime to be adopted shall be based on the complexity of the project and the number of environmental risks. The audit schedule shall be encompassed on the Company Audit Programme. 4.3.1.1.2 Evaluation The environmental performance of SP Project Teams and the degree of success of project objectives shall be reviewed on a project level and against other projects during Management Review. Environmental performance forms part of the SP Management Review agenda. Projects shall be continuously reviewed and adjusted in-line with the finding of the Quality & Environmental Manager during site visits and audits. Supply chain compliance and performance shall be reviewed at weekly team meetings and shall be encompassed in the agenda for Post Contract Review.

4.4 CONSTRUCTION WASTE ASSESSMENT The nature of wastes arising from the development and their treatment will vary throughout the different stages of construction. A detailed construction programme is not available at this stage, however the key stages will include:

of 62

4.4.1.1.1 Preliminaries This stage of development will comprise: • The establishment of a site compound and installation of security fencing; • Establishment of vehicle access arrangements; • Import and storage of materials in preparation for the commencement of development. Waste arisings during this stage will be small and likely to result in very low numbers of vehicle movements for off-site disposal of surplus waste. 4.4.1.1.2 Site Preparation and Earthworks During this stage, the following activities will be undertaken: • Removal of existing hard-standings and existing buildings; • Removal of topsoil and regrading of site ground levels of Excavation for basements and foundation construction Foundation and groundworks construction is likely to generate a significant volume of surplus excavated material to be removed from Site. This will be removed by road using covered tipper trucks or skip lorries. This surplus material will be segregated at the point of disposal (waste transfer station) and re-used as fill for other construction projects where possible. 4.4.1.1.3 Construction and Fabrication During this main construction phase the following operations will take place: • Below ground construction including reinforced concrete piled foundations • Reinforced concrete basement floor slabs and walls • Below ground drainage and services • Erection of steel frame and construction of walls, floors and glazing; • Installation and commissioning of mechanical & electrical plant • Installation of building services • Roofing • Access and parking areas; • Hard and soft landscaping; • Fit-out of buildings Again, the absence of a completed design or Bill of Quantities means that precise quantities cannot be evaluated at this stage. However, as an initial guide, reference has been drawn from current standards, including BRE's Smart waste benchmarking data (2012). 4.4.1.1.4 Anticipated Demolition Materials Pre-demolition audit and asbestos audit will be required prior to demolition works being undertaken. Due to the low volume of demolition materials and restricted nature of the site it is anticipated there will be no secondary processing of demolition materials on site. This removes the likelihood of post demolition crushing activities. Demolition Methodology will include the systematic demolition by mechanical excavator (approx. 15 tonne). Removal off site by a second similar sized mechanical excavator loading highways complaint (FORS) haulage Lorries for processing off site and reuse.

Plant Machinery 2No. 30 tonne mechanical excavators 1No. Compressor (Diesel) 1No. Jack Hammer 4No. Haulage Lorries Furthermore there are no landscaping requirements, the scope of the earthworks element will not require the storage of topsoil’s or subsoils for re-use and the extent of the earthworks will be confined to excavation to formation level and preparation of the formation level.

4.5 QUALITY MANAGEMENT PROCEDURES SP ISO9001:2015 Quality Management Procedures Required By This Plan Encompass: • Planning, Programming & Reporting • Subcontractor Procurement • Quality Plans • Training, Competency & CPD • Risk Management • Statutory & Regulatory Compliance • Control of Nonconforming Product • Client & Stakeholder Management • Construction Methodology • Control of Monitoring & Measuring Devices • Materials Control • Post Contract Review All Regulatory Requirements (Legal, Planning, Standards, etc): Air Pollution Acts etc shall be complied with.

4.6 CONTROL MEASURES All control measures will be in line with The Control Of Dust And Emissions During Construction And Demolition From The Mayor Of London (July 204) Dust & Dirt Control Measures • On existing (or adjacent) operational facilities close to the works the site team must

check for existing air intake points and discuss with the client additional measures to prevent dust or fumes entering the building or area of concern or to determine if any equipment shutdown needs to be organised.

• Any areas of the site where dust may generate are to be dampened down at regular intervals to eliminate the potential for dust to blow. If possible, generation of dust should be prevented at source.

• If required dust monitoring will be carried out. • Regarding the heavy sulphur content of fuels and diesels all engines must be shut off

when any available opportunity arises, e.g. Lunch breaks. • All paints, solvents and fuels to be always lidded or caped to prevent unnecessary

evaporation. • Neighbour can contact the Project Manager to discuss any concerns and regular

meetings will be held with the residents and the City Council to review site issues. • Ensure good housekeeping is maintained and that all on site operate a ‘clean as you

go’ policy.

GEM Air Quality Ltd undertook a detailed air quality assessment based on the potential impacts of existing and future traffic levels on a proposed mixed-use development location along Axe Street in Barking, London. Habitat ControL It is an offence to intentionally kill or injure a protected species or to wilfully interfere with or destroy the breeding site or resting place of a protected wild animal unless such activities are carried out in accordance with an appropriate licence. Control Measures • No issues of habitat or species protection is envisaged but with on-going close

supervision of the site if such issues arise they will be acted upon in an appropriate manner at that stage.

Housekeeping Control Measures • Maintain company policy signage, access roadways, entrance & around

accommodation lay down areas to the highest standard. • Ensure hoarding is always erected / secured correctly in good order. • Ensure good housekeeping is maintained and that all on site operate a ‘clean as you

go’ policy. • Traffic management cones & signs to be positioned correctly and well maintained. • Skip areas to be in an orderly state with correct signage and skips not to get to an

overflow state. • Storage areas to have appropriate access and egress and all items to stacked /

stored neatly and in an orderly fashion. • The site agent is to ensure that there are adequate resources such as wheelie bins,

mini skips, etc. in place whether provided by SP or sub-contractors. • Neighbour can contact the Contract Manager to discuss any concerns and regular

meetings will be held with the residents and the Local County Council to review site issues.

• The site agent must monitor housekeeping outside the site such as keeping the public roads clean and checks on hoarding quality.

Noise Control Measure All Regulatory Requirements (Legal, Planning, Standards, etc): Air Pollution Acts etc shall be complied with. Control Measures

o A background noise survey will be carried out at the nearest noise sensitive locations prior to works commencing on site and if noise monitoring is required during the works it will be carried out at the required locations, downloaded, checked, reported on and filed on at least a daily basis.

o Planning the hours of work o Movement of noise generating activities to fewer sensitive areas of the site. o The use of quiet working methods o Controlling noise at source o Enclosures for plant & equipment o Erection of hoarding o Maintenance of equipment

Resource Usage Control Measure

Control Measures • Energy: Power will primarily be mains. Where generators are required they

will be suited to demand. Timers will be in place for all office heaters and all lighting both internal and external will be through PIR.

• Materials: Items required will be ‘Just in Time’. Storage on site will be organised with the aid of signage and in an orderly state.

• Water: Toilet Areas and Water Consumption: Signs to be placed in all toilets on site stating, ‘please turn off taps after use’. Ideally all toilet taps should be push button type. All hose pipes to have end stop taps fitted and turned off when not required.

Vibration Measure Control Measures

• Specification to be sought from the design engineer on the project on the extent of any required monitoring and the criteria for monitoring.

• Project team to get guidance from the insurance company on extent of vibration monitoring that should be carried out.

• If noise monitoring is required during the works it will be carried out at the required locations, downloaded, checked, reported on and filed on at least a daily basis.

Spillage As soon as practicable after the occurrence of an accidental discharge, spillage or deposit of any polluting matter which enters or is likely to enter any waters or a sewer, the person responsible shall notify the local authority in whose functional area the discharge, spillage or deposit occurs or, in the case of a sewer, the sanitary authority in which the sewer is vested or by which it is controlled Control Measures

• All plastic and single skinned metal fuel tanks to be in a concrete bund substantially enclosed structure with a built-in sump for pumping out miscellaneous spills and rain ingress. This will be known as the central storage / refuelling station.

• All mobile bowsers to be inspected weekly for leaks and a log of the inspection to be retained with the bowser.

• Only metal gerry / fuel cans to be used on site. Plastic drums are banned. • Gerry cans to be stored on weathe- proof grated poly spill pallets or tray or

else within the bund. • Refuelling trucks and mobile bowsers to have correct nozzle with auto cut

off. • Refuelling of small plant to be carried out on a weather-proof grated poly

spill pallets or tray or else within the bund. • There must be a hard-standing concrete slab provided at the central

refuelling station with a built-in sump for miscellaneous spills. • All generators and portable plant must be double bunded units or be placed

on a grated drip tray. • All generator hoses must be hydraulic wire reinforced. • Crimped connections must be used, not jubilee clips. • A designated concrete wash-out area to be in use throughout the works.

Unidentified Contamination Control Measure

of 62

A person shall not hold, transport, recover or dispose of waste in a manner that causes or is likely to cause environmental pollution. A person shall not transfer the control of waste to any person other than an appropriate person. If waste is transferred to an inappropriate person, responsibility for waste remains with original waste generator. Control Measures Where there is concern of there being any form of contamination the works in that area must cease, senior site staff informed and expert advices, sampling, analysis, reports, etc. to be sought before proceeding to deal with the contaminant. Excavations: Soil, Sub Soil:Before any soil is removed from site the Waste Collection Permit (WCP) of the haulier to be used will be checked thoroughly including the appendices for validity. This WCP will be cross checked with the Waste Permit (WP) of the Tip Site to be used. Tests will be carried out before removal of soil off site. And the Tip Site must be a site that is permitted to allow waste of that particular criteria in.

Construction Phase: General Waste, Timber, Metal, Plasterboard, Cardboard, Plastic, Paper and wastes of a hazardous nature such as aerosols, mastic tubes, oily rags, oils, oily water, oil-based paint containers, etc. All these waste fractions will be separated out on site into individual skips / bins. A certified Environmental Services company will be employed to remove this off site to their facility. Demolition: All strip out material, rubble. Before any demolition waste is removed off-site the Waste Collection Permit (WCP) of the haulier to be used will be checked thoroughly including the appendices for validity. This WCP will be cross checked with the Waste Permit (WP) or Waste Licence (WL) of the receiving facility. It is anticipated that the bulk of waste streams form demolition will be sent for recycling.

Water Discharges A person shall not discharge or cause or permit the discharge of any trade effluent or sewage effluent to any waters except under and in accordance with a licence). A person other than a sanitary authority shall not discharge or cause or permit the discharge of any trade effluent or other matter (other than domestic sewage or storm water) to a sewer, except under and in accordance with a licence under this section granted by the sanitary authority in which the sewer is vested or by which it is controlled All truck wheels will be washed on exit from site. Water from wheel washing areas can contain oil and diesel, as well as high levels of silt. Effective wheel/body washing facilities to be provided and used as necessary; all vehicles entering/leaving site will be routinely inspected by SP gatemen for contaminants/debris. Control Measures

• Ground to ground pumping of uncontaminated water is generally deemed acceptable.

• Under no circumstances is pumping onto hard standing such as concrete or tarmac to be allowed.

• Permission or a discharge permit to be sought from the Local Authority before any water is pumped into a storm or sewer line.

of 62

• If water is to be pumped off site it must be sampled and analysed prior to discharge.

• Settlement Pond / Tanks to be set up on site to aid in settlement of solids prior to discharge. These tanks must be of enough size to allow ample retention time for the solids to settle.

Neighbours and Local Residence Our Project Manager will be responsible for project strategic liaison whilst the site Managers will be responsible for day to day liaison and logistics for all of the construction related activities. Both will be permanently based on site with the site Managers as the first point of contact for all concerns, issues and complaints. The plan will outline timings of deliveries and routes to be taken by hauliers to minimise disruption to local residents and businesses. This includes the potential risk for noise disturbance as well as minimising additional traffic during peak periods.

5 QUALITY SP will implement our EHS&Q plan on the project which complies with the requirements of ISO 9001:2008. The implementation of this plan by all our sub-contractors contributes to us achieving our goal of delivering a snag free building on handover. All retained sub-contractors will be given a quality induction before commencing on site and samples will be used extensively to set and maintain the standard of work required.

A site-specific Preliminary Inspection Plan (PIP) for the project will be developed with the design team. The plan will include hold points for inspections to be carried out before work progresses or is closed in. A detailed programme for inspections will be developed and issued to the design team to ensure adequate notice is given prior to each inspection. All materials used on site will be in accordance with the designer’s specifications. Where applicable, only materials with a current CE marking will be used on the project. All material data sheets and CE certification will be held on site by the Site Manager and will be available at any time for inspection. Concrete, stone and concrete blocks will be supplied by a reputable supplier and will be free from pyrites. Test certs for quarries will be issued to the design team prior to any of these materials arriving on site. Concrete cube and slump testing will be carried out on all wet concrete delivered to site as per the Engineers specification. SP will carry out its duty as the registered builder on the project. SP will collect and issue Ancillary certs from all relevant subcontractors. In addition to our own Test & Inspection Plan, we will work closely with the Design team to give adequate notice for inspections required under the design teams Inspection Plans.

5.0 BREEAM AND CONSIDERATE CONSTRUCTORS SCHEME SP in an attempt to reduce workflows utilise the bre Green Guide to Specifications.
