1. Introduction
1.1.
Background
Patrick Stevedores Operations Pty Ltd (Patrick) operates an international shipping container terminal
(Terminal) on the land leased from NSW Ports at Brotherson Dock, Port Botany.
The Terminal loads and unloads containers from ships berthed at the dock and provides a container
stacking area for its clients. All containers are in-transit and the Terminal facilitates the transfer of goods
between the land and sea as well as using trucks and trains to transport containers to customer sites.
The objective of the Port Botany Redevelopment Project (PBRP) is to deliver the infrastructure, change
management and associated works to enable transition from a manual terminal operation to a state of the
art AutoStrad Terminal achieving best practice safety, productivity, energy efficiency and environmental
benefits. The PBRP will be completed in two construction stages as follows:
Stage 1
expansion of the existing container handling facility on reclaimed land, the Knuckle, adjacent to the
Patricks existing container terminal, and
construction of Ramp D which extends from the existing Grade Separation Works undertaken by SPC.
Stage 2
upgrading the existing terminal with new truck grids, additional rail and new road access,
construction of new administration offices, a control tower and workshop buildings, and
procurement of more ecoefficient, less noisy plant with reduced lighting requirements for night time
operation while being amenable for optimal operation as a result of terminal automation.
The NSW Minister for Planning granted staged development consent in 2005 and 2006 under the
Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979, subject to a number of Conditions of Approval. This
consent has since been subject to thirteen (13) modifications. In addition, the Commonwealth granted
consent in 2006 under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999, for aspects of
the project relating to migratory birds, such as enhancement of Penrhyn Estuary.
1.2.
Purpose and Scope
This Construction Environmental Management Plan (CEMP) is prepared to cover the construction of Ramp
D only (the Project). The CEMP describes the environmental management processes and controls that
Fulton Hogan will apply during construction of the Project.
Fulton Hogan recognises that the project construction activities will result in some adverse impacts on the
environment. The purpose of this CEMP is to ensure that such activities are undertaken in an
environmentally responsible manner and that any unavoidable adverse impacts on the environment are
minimised.
It is designed to satisfy the requirements of Fulton Hogans Integrated Management System (IMS) and
AS/NZS ISO 14001:2004. This CEMP will be used as a working document to ensure that commitments and
obligations included in the Ministers Conditions of Approval (MCoA) and Environmental Impact Statement
(EIS) obligations are understood and implemented by all construction staff, including sub-contractors.
1.3.
Project Overview
The Project involves the construction of Ramp D which will complement the overall Terminal
redevelopment by providing a main entry and exit point to the Patrick container handling facility.

Fulton Hogan will also notify Patrick immediately of any site visits by the EPA, including purpose and
outcome of the visit and any actions taken by Fulton Hogan in response to the visit.
4.3.2. Community Consultation and Complaints Handling
A number of community groups and local residents have been identified as stakeholders in relation to the
construction phase of this project. Communication with these groups, along with NSW Ports relevant
authorities and other groups is managed by Patrick as part of their community engagement for the
Redevelopment Project. Specifically:
Community engagement activities are undertaken to inform and engage relevant stakeholders
including the Port Botany Expansion Community Consultative Committee (CCC) and Port Botany
Neighbourhood Liaison Group.
Where appropriate Patrick will also proactively issue community updates/newsletters, public displays
to ensure the community is aware of potential impacts.
Representatives of the Redevelopment Project will attend and provide construction/community
updates at regular community forum meetings.
More detail is available on the community page of the Redevelopment Project website at
http://www.patrick.com.au/community/w1/i1002943/ along with the monthly community update, Q&As,
relevant construction environmental management plans and monitoring.
There is an established complaints handling process in place to respond to issues raised by stakeholders in
relation to construction. The 24 hour complaints telephone line is available to residents or stakeholders by
telephoning 1800 177 722. The complaints telephone number has been proactively communicated to local
residents and businesses, is on the Project website and has been published by local media.
Complaints received will be investigated and dealt with immediately by Patrick. A database of complaints is
held and managed by Patrick and is shared and reported on monthly to NSW Ports.
Complaints management database will record the date and time of complaint, the method by which the

4.3.3. Managing Cumulative Impacts From Multiple Construction Works

Fulton Hogan acknowledges that multiple contractors will be undertaking construction works on the PBRP
at the same time and the potential for cumulative environmental impacts such as noise, dust, and traffic
during the construction of Ramp D. The management of common environmental issues from multiple
construction works will be coordinated by Patrick through regular meetings with Fulton Hogan and other
contractors. Fulton Hogan will implement any additional control measures agreed upon at these meetings
to minimise the adverse impact on the local communities and businesses.
4.3.4. Authority Liaison

4.3.5. Hours of Work

Construction hours are:
7am to 6pm on weekdays

8am to 1pm on Saturdays, and
No works on Sundays or public holidays.
The procedure for notifying Patrick and relevant authorities in advance of any proposed extension to hours
of work is included in the Construction Noise & Vibration Management Sub-Plan.
Some out of hours activities are likely to be required throughout the construction period. These activities
are permitted by the MCOA and may be required to be undertaken out of hours work to:
undertake works for safety reasons for protection of workers and the public;
reduce disruption to traffic and the community;
satisfy operational requirements of government agencies or authorities; or
due to unforeseen circumstances.
Where there is a requirement for out of hours activities that are not previously authorised by the MCOA,
and would be audible, Patrick is required to submit relevant information to DP&I for consideration under
Condition B2.19A of the MCOA.
This would include justification of varied construction hours, appropriate notification to sensitive receivers,
and noise reduction measures to be put in place. Appropriate community notification would be required, as
per the Community Consultation Plan.
4.4.
Emergency Preparedness and Incident Management
Environmental incidents and emergencies and management controls for dealing with these are addressed
in detail in the Incident and Emergency Response Plan (IERP).
The IERP includes:
Identification of potential environmental hazards

Risk assessment of potential environmental emergencies
Emergency response procedures for different emergency scenarios
Notification requirements and emergency contacts
Roles and responsibilities during environmental emergencies, and
Periodic testing of the emergency response procedures.
All incidents will be recorded in Fulton Hogans Case and Action Management System (CAMs) in accordance
to Fulton Hogans Case and Action Management Procedure and Incident Investigation, Reporting &
Notification Procedure.

5. Checking Performance
5.1.
Environmental Inspections
The effectiveness of site environmental controls will be assessed on a regular basis. To document this, a
number of checklists, registers and forms will be completed. These may include (but not necessarily be
limited to) the following:
Environmental inspection checklists

Audit reports, and
Nonconformities (NCRs).
These will provide a means to evaluate and verify compliance with the relevant regulatory requirements
and the contractual environmental requirements.
Site Environmental Engineer will conduct weekly site inspections and document the results of these
inspections in an Environmental Inspection Report (refer to Appendix F).
Any non-conformances identified during site inspections or through monitoring results will be investigated
to determine the cause and to ascertain the necessary corrective actions.
5.2.
Environmental Monitoring
Project environmental monitoring will comprise collection and interpretation of quantitative data to
evaluate compliance and to verify the effectiveness of the environmental controls on site.
Environmental monitoring will include:
Noise monitoring
Water quality monitoring, and
Weather monitoring.
The methodology, location and frequency of environmental monitoring are further described in issuespecific sub-plans. The environmental sampling and testing equipment used on the project will be
calibrated in accordance with the manufacturers specifications and results recorded on the Calibration
Equipment Register.
5.3.
Environmental Nonconformities
The process for managing any environmental nonconformities will be as follows:
All nonconformities will be raised through QAntrol and CAMs systems

All nonconformities will be recorded in the Environmental Actions Register
The status of NCRs will be recorded and monitored to ensure timely closure, and
The negative trends will be identified and analysed and preventive actions initiated and implemented
to prevent recurrence.
Written responses to any nonconformities raised by Patrick or the relevant authorities will be provided
within the agreed timeframes or as required by the relevant contract environmental specifications.
5.4.
Audits & Reporting
The CEMP compliance audits will be undertaken by suitably qualified and experienced Fulton Hogan
personnel not directly associated with the project every six months, with the first audit occurring no longer
than three months after commencement of construction.
The scope of internal audits may include but is not limited to:
Compliance with legislation, license, permit and approval obligations;

Revision: 0

Revised: 03/07/13
Page 20 of 60
Compliance with the mitigation measures in the CEMP and sub-plans;

Management of environmental nonconformities and incidents
Subcontractor management, and
Management of the environmental incidents.
Any deficiencies identified in the audit will be promptly rectified according to the level of risk.The outcomes
of internal audits may also trigger the requirement to update the CEMP and/or the sub-plans.
Patrick will undertake the Annual Independent Environmental Audit as required by section B4.5 of the
MCOA. Patrick will also undertake the Annual Environmental Management Report as required by section
B4.2 of the MCOA.
6. Document Control and Records Management

The system used for document control and records management is detailed in the Documents and Records
Management Plan. This enables the complete management of all documents, including the identification of
document or drawing lists, author and recipient management and ensuring that documents remain legible
and readily identifiable.
7. Review and Improvement of the CEMP

The CEMP will be reviewed at least annually to ensure compliance with legislative requirements and its
suitability and effectiveness for the project and other requirements. The CEMP may be reviewed more
regularly due to a change in construction activities, where targets are not achieved or in response to audit
findings.
The review may be in a form of:
formal management review

second party audit, and/or
inclusion as a separate item at site meetings.
Any revisions to the CEMP as a result of management review will be issued as per Section 4.3.3 of this Plan
and the Documents and Records Management Plan.

Development
Provides new definitions for 'hazardous industry', 'hazardous storage establishment', 'offensive industry' and
'offensive storage establishment'. These enable decisions to approve or refuse a development to be based on
the merit of proposal. The policy also requires specified matters to be considered for proposals that are
'potentially hazardous' or 'potentially offensive'. The policy does not change the role of councils as consent

Council supports transparency of noise monitoring data. To

demonstrate a which
commitment to transparency Council recommend that these monthly
noise monitoring reports be made accessible to the community via a
project website. Noise monitoring data that has been provided by
SICTL during their construction works via their website have been well
received by the community.
Council receives noise nuisance complaints from the Port related
operations
particularly in streets located on elevated topographies. Subsequently
Council supports Patrick's commitment to notifying the community 1
week in advance of noisy activities as specified in the construction noise
sub plan. As Council understands that the designated community
extends to Randwick LGA, Council recommends that these community
notifications could be most effectively achieved via notifications in the
local community newspaper i.e. the southern courier which would
remove the need for extensive letterboxing/mail outs.
Noise and dust monitoring data will be accessible to

the community via a project website.
Council recommends monitoring measures take into consideration of

cumulative
impacts of Dust from multiple construction activities occurring at the
terminal at the same time especially during periods of high winds.
Cumulative impacts have been addressed in sect

4.3.3 of the CEMP.
Notifications will be done via local community

newspaper as well as by letterbox drops.

whereas the dust management sub plan states the use of rainwater tank

Council suggest consideration cumulative traffic impact in this TMP

A project requirement should be that no construction vehicle
stacking, loading
or unloading shall occur on, or in a manner that adversely affects the

Existing pedestrian access (towards Patrick terminal and SPOC

building) via elevated roundabout is impacted by Ramp D works and
Ramp D construction traffic. Patrick propose to separate pedestrian 2m
wide path with concrete barriers. Please provide detail of this proposal:
is there enough space for 2m wide path plus barriers? Also will barriers
be structurally connected to protect against impact from trucks? Please
address in TMP.
TMP Section 5.4.2 Access via the Caltex site and across the SICTL rail area is not
permitted, unless specific approval is obtained from both Caltex and
SICTL (as well as NSW Ports). This is highly unlikely in view of the
SICTL rail construction and rail operations in respectively 2013 and
2014.

TMP has been modified to show the vehicle

does not impact port operations. (clause 6.3)
Structural connection is under consideration however
connection to the existing bridge structure may affect
the integrity of the waterproofing in place and also
provide an avenue for water ingress. There is
potential for the durability to be compromised.
