Prior to any dewatering activities being carried out, an approval must first be obtained in accordance
with section 92 of the WM Act.
6.15.6 Recommendation 3:
During construction, the rehabilitation of disturbed areas are to be carried out progressively and in
accordance with the following guidelines:
•
•
•
Managing Urban Stormwater: Soils and Construction series;
TfNSW Landscape Design Guideline; and
RMS Roads and Maritime Guideline for Batter Stabilisation Using Vegetation.
6.16 RESOURCE USE AND WASTE MANAGEMENT
6.16.1 Existing Environment
The project area encompasses an existing road network and pedestrian facilities which have
minimum waste generation and resource use. Vegetation which has been identified to be removed
will generate green waste, if unable to be reused in the landscape element of the project.
6.16.2 Impact Assessment
Generators of waste are responsible for the correct classification of the waste they produce in
accordance with the EPA Waste Classification Guidelines Part 1: Classifying waste (the Waste
Classification Guidelines). A waste register is required to ensure that legislative requirements are
met. The WARR Act provides a framework for considering resource management and is given effect
by the NSW Waste Reduction and Purchasing Policy (WRAPP). Under the WRAPP Reporting
Guidelines, agencies are required to give priority to buying materials with recycled content, when it
is cost and performance competitive to do so (OEH, 2016).
The project requires large volumes of fill being transported to and from the site. This can result in
increased demand for natural soil resource if the development solely relies on fill transport from
areas other than the development area.
6.16.3 Mitigation Measures
Mitigation measures are proposed for resource use and waste management as follows:
6.16.4 Recommendation 1:
Pre-construction and during construction, contractors are to be required to propose recycled-content
materials where they are cost and performance competitive and are the environmental equivalent
(or better) than non-recycled alternatives. Specific materials that are targeted for reuse or recycling
in accordance with the Roads and Maritime Environmental Sustainability Strategy that are
specifically relevant to this proposal.
6.16.5 Recommendation 2:
Pre-construction, a Waste Management Plan (WMP) is to be prepared and implemented as part of
the CEMP. It is to provide specific guidance on measures and controls to be implemented to support
minimising the amount of waste produced and appropriately handling and disposing of unavoidable
waste. It is to also address the importation of waste to the site for use in undertaking the project.
The WMP will give effect to any management measures contained in any waste assessment carried
out for the project and include, but not necessarily be limited to:
