SS P1: CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITY POLLUTION CONTROL

Runoff from construction sites is the major source of

sediment in urban areas under development.
There are two main reasons why construction
activities increase pollutant loads in runoff.
1. the volume and rate of runoff typically increase,
providing a larger capacity to transport pollutants
to rivers and lakes.
2. the vegetation is removed, leaving bare soil that is
much more vulnerable to erosion, resulting in
sediment moving into receiving waters.

EROSION AND SEDIMENTATION CONTROL PLAN

Soil erosion and sedimentation control during construction:

Prepare and implement Erosion and Sedimentation control plan for all construction activities as per Local Standards
or National Building Code of India (NBC) Part 10, Section 1, Chapter 4 & 5. Measures such as temporary and
permanent seeding, mulching, earth dikes, silt fencing, sediment traps, and sediment basins as appropriate are to be
implemented to limit disturbances due to construction activity.
The following actions are to be implemented:

Tyre washing facility shall be provided at the entry and exit of the construction entry to arrest the erosion of
soil due to truck movement. This is during the construction period. Alternatively, stone / gratings can be
provided at vehicular entrance/exit way to the site to ensure that the tyres are clean.
Vehicular movement shall be restricted to stabilized paths in site.

Top-soil testing shall be carried out to verify that the site-soil is not fertile.
Temporary storm water drains/ channels shall be proposed at the periphery of the site in accordance with the
natural gradient through the construction period and the channels shall empty into a sedimentation tank to
arrest the sediments.
Photographic documentation of the erosion sedimentation measures implemented at site shall be maintained
by the contractor.

Stabilized construction entry / Exit.

Essential to arrest sediment and
dust generated through circulation
activities.
- Gravel/ stone construction entry
- Concrete road

Tyre washing trough

Truck Wash Areas: Essentially

placed near construction entry and
exit of the site.
Mechanical : Tyre wash trough
flooded with water
Manual: Cleaning of tyres with
hose pipes.
Note: the water from the trough or
from the tyre wash facility to be
diverted to the onsite sediment
tank.

Manual Tyre washing hose

Truck wash areas can be

incorporated within stabilized
construction entry and exits.

Top soil preservation:

Topsoil: top 15 cm soil Rich in humus, nitrogen,
phosphorus and other minerals encouraging plant growth.
Topsoil needs to be stacked in layers and protected against
erosion during construction time.
Points to consider : soil testing report, availability of storage
space, potential to reuse during construction time,
donating

Temporary sedimentation tank

A temporary sediment trap is a control device used
to intercept sediment-laden runoff and to trap
sediment and prevent or reduce off-site
sedimentation.
A temporary sediment trap can be formed by
excavation or by embankments constructed at
designated locations accessible for cleanout
Preferred at the lowermost gradient of the site.
Tank to be lined with rip-rap/ aggregate
construction de-watering and storm water
directed towards the tank
The overflow can be directed to municipal drains if
present

MR C2: CONSTRUCTION WASTE MANAGEMENT

Construction waste management during construction:

A construction waste management plan to reuse waste within the site or divert minimum 75% of construction waste
from landfills must be prepared. The following measures must be implemented to ensure the same:
A separate yard needs to be identified on site for collecting all types of construction waste.
The contractor shall segregate the construction waste in separate categories such as reinforcement steel,
concrete debris, brick or masonry debris, wires, tile waste, wood waste aluminium, metal, paper, plastics and
packaging waste etc.
The construction waste with recyclable potential shall be used within the site for non structural purposes such
as providing reinforcement in curbs, crushed concrete debris used as aggregates in landscape features, tiles and
stone chips in landscape paving, fillers in landscape mounds etc.
All construction waste needs to be documented in either weight or in volume. Please refer Annexure 1 for
recording format.
Contractor shall maintain a copy of challans & receipts for recyclable material going out of the site for various
reuse / recycle purpose and submit to project manager at regular intervals.
Pictures need to be captured as per construction waste management plan for support.
Site plan with the location of materials and waste storage should be prepared.
Surplus segregated debris with reuse potential shall be sold to recyclers / donated to other construction sites.

EQ C3: CONSTRUCTION IAQ MANAGEMENT PLAN

Plan to reduce indoor air quality (IAQ) problems resulting from construction.
Promotes the comfort and well being of building occupants and construction workers.
Develop and Implement an IAQ Management Plan for the construction and preoccupancy phases of the
building as follows:
Meet or exceed the recommended control measures of the SMACNA IAQ Guidelines for Occupied
Buildings Under Construction
Protect stored on-site and installed absorptive materials from moisture damage
If permanently installed air handlers are used during construction, filtration media with a MERV of 8 must
be used at each return air grill.
Meet or exceed the recommended control measures of the SMACNA IAQ Guidelines for Occupied
Buildings Under Construction

oPathway Interruption
oHousekeeping
oScheduling
Avoid using permanently installed HVAC systems during construction if possible

EQ C3: CONSTRUCTION IAQ MANAGEMENT PLAN

Protect all HVAC equipment from
both dust and odours and seal all
duct and equipment openings
with plastic.
