5. ENVIRONMENTAL SITE INSPECTION

Site Inspections

5.1 Site inspection was carried out on a weekly basis to monitor the timely implementation of proper environmental pollution control and mitigation measures for the Project. In the month, five site inspections were carried out. The summary of weekly environmental site inspections observations and environmental site inspection checklists are attached in Appendix H[INCLUDE SITE INSPECTION RECORDS IN APPENDIX H]HHHHHH.

Review of Environmental Monitoring Procedures

5.2 The monitoring works conducted by the Environmental Team were inspected regularly. Observations have been recorded for the monitoring works as follows:

Air Quality Monitoring

· The monitoring team recorded the observations around the monitoring stations within and outside of the construction site.

· The monitoring team recorded the temperature and general weather condition on the monitoring day.

Noise Monitoring

· The monitoring team recorded the observations around the monitoring stations, which might affect the results.

· Major noise sources were identified and recorded.

Advice on Waste Management Status

5.3 The actual quantities of uncontaminated sediment, contaminated sediment, inert C&D materials and C&D wastes generated by activities of the Project in the month are provided in Table 5.1. Trip ticket system was implemented for all offsite waste disposal.

Material Storage/Spillage/Leakage [INCLUDE AIR QUALITY SITE OBSERVATIONS IN REPORTING MONTH, SOME TYPICAL EXAMPLES SHOWN BELOW FOR REFERENCE]

· Stockpile of sand was found uncovered at TTA31. The Contractor was reminded to cover the stockpile to prevent runoff during rainfall.

· Stockpile of C&D waste were found at C6/C66. The Contractor was requested to clear the C&D waste off site regularly.

· Oil seepage was observed from an oil drum at the Sub-Contractor office (Chainage 2200). The Contractor was reminded to clear the oil stain.

Waste Management [INCLUDE AIR QUALITY SITE OBSERVATIONS IN REPORTING MONTH, SOME TYPICAL EXAMPLES SHOWN BELOW FOR REFERENCE]

· General refuse was found accumulated at C6/C66 near Gate 2. The Contractor was reminded to clear the refuse.

Water Pollution [INCLUDE AIR QUALITY SITE OBSERVATIONS IN REPORTING MONTH, SOME TYPICAL EXAMPLES SHOWN BELOW FOR REFERENCE]

· Leaves were accumulated inside the u-channel at C6/C66. The Contractor was reminded to clear the leaves to prevent blockage.

· Gullies at TTA38 and TTA31 were found blocked. The Contractor was advised to clear the blockage and properly maintain the drainage system.

· Broken branches and leaves were found inside the u-channel at TTA3. The Contractor was reminded to clear the leaves and branches inside the drainage system to prevent blockage.

Air Emissions [INCLUDE AIR QUALITY SITE OBSERVATIONS IN REPORTING MONTH, SOME TYPICAL EXAMPLES SHOWN BELOW FOR REFERENCE]

· Mud trails were found outside site exit at C6/C66. The Contractor was advised to clear the mud trails and provide wheel-washing at site exits.
