1. Introduction 1.1. Purpose

This Construction Environmental Control Plan (CECP) is being submitted by Queensland Gas Company (QGC). The CECP focuses on land-based construction activities within Area 2 of the Auckland Point Logistic Facility, Gladstone, Queensland a component of the Queensland Curtis Liquefied Natural Gas (QCLNG) Project. The Auckland Point Area 2 component comprises the development, construction and operation of a Personnel and Construction Materials Movement Area located at Auckland Point within the Gladstone Strategic Port Area.

The environmental impact assessment process for the QCLNG Project has identified certain environmental management aspects that require integration into the construction phase. The intention of this CECP is to describe the Project’s system for minimising and managing environmental risks associated with construction activities at Auckland Point Area 2. This CECP addresses the current permit Conditions of Approval issued for construction at Auckland Point. The following permit relevant to Construction at Auckland Point was issued at the time of preparation of this CECP:

Auckland Point Land Operational Works Permit (OPW) – DA 2010/03.

The document is to be updated following the issue of additional permits applicable to construction, as the design and procurement process progresses and prior to commission such that the document remains current and to identify the site specific environmental management measures that will be required.

The CECP includes an overview of the legal obligations pertaining to the construction activities at Auckland Point Area 2, as well as measures and policies that will be implemented. Key objectives and performance criteria will be adopted and will be the primary requirement for auditing and compliance monitoring purposes. Any non-conformances will be reported in accordance with the reporting requirements. Each environmental aspect is discussed in the CECP in relation to the potential environmental impact, control measures to avoid or limit impacts and monitoring requirements.

Community engagement strategies are discussed in the CECP. An appropriate engagement and complaints handling process will help to determine where environmental impacts such as noise and changes to air quality may occur and where management measures may be required.

Lastly, an Emergency Response for Environmental Incidents Management Plan has been developed for construction activities at Auckland Point Area 2, and these broad strategies are discussed in this CECP.




1.2. CECP Objectives

The key objectives of the CECP are to:

Set out a plan such that works are carried out in a manner using the implementation of appropriate environmental management practices.

Implement a system for compliance with applicable legislation and non-legislation requirements and obligations and commitments including:

- Relevant legislative requirements

- Licences and approvals

- Non-legislative requirements and commitments

Develop, implement and monitor measures to address pollution.

Respond to changes in environmental conditions during the proposed works through review and monitoring and control programmes.

The CECP consists of a suite of environmental planning and management instruments (e.g. Management Sub-Plans, Work Method Statements) that will be implemented during construction at Auckland Point Area 2 to limit and manage environmental and community risks and impacts.




2. Project Description This CECP has been prepared to manage the construction of Auckland Point Area 2 – Personnel and Construction Materials Movement Area. This area (approximately 64,500m2 in total) is required to facilitate the movement of personnel, freight and equipment which is being transported to and from Curtis Island. Plans for the facility are included in Attachment A.

2.1. Overview of Auckland Point Logistics Facility

QGC proposes to construct a logistics facility (consisting of offices, material staging/storage areas and car parks) at Auckland Point (refer to Figure 1). This facility will function in conjunction with an on-site marine facility to provide access to the QCLNG site on Curtis Island and allow for the movement of personnel and materials for the construction phase of the QCLNG Project.

The supporting logistics facility is proposed to consist of four main areas which are described in Table 1:

Table 1 Auckland Point Logistics Facility

Area Purpose Area One Freight Handling Area/Employment Centre 3.0 Ha Two Personnel and Construction Materials Movement

Area 6.45 Ha

Tree Intermediate Holding and Loading Area 0.6 Ha Four Lay-down Area 10.33 Ha

In addition, the following areas will be incorporated in the Logistics Facility:

COMMON ACCESS AREA, directly adjacent to proposed Area 2 of approximately 0.72 Ha.

PROPOSED ROAD AREA, for the construction of two access roads to provide access between Areas 1, 2 and 3 and surrounding road networks of approximately 1.27 Ha.

2.2. Surrounding Development

The greater Auckland Point area includes four existing wharves. To the north east of the site is the Barney Point Wharf, to the north west is the Auckland Point Tug Berth, within Lot 300 north west of Area 1 and 3 is the Origin LPG terminal. These wharves are utilised for the export and storage of goods. The land proposed to be used for the Auckland Point Logistics Facility is an existing brown field site owned by GPC and is described in the Gladstone Planning Scheme as Strategic Port Land.




Figure 1 Auckland Point Logistics Facility Site Layout (Source: QGC)




2.3. Location and Description

Auckland Point Area 2 is located in the north eastern corner of Lot 300 on SP120920 at Auckland Point, Gladstone. Area 2 is on the eastern side of Lot 300, with McFarlan Drive bounding the northern and eastern edge. Proposed Access Road 1 is located to the south and connects Tug Berth Access Road with McFarlan Drive. Access to Area 2 is currently achievable from the north western boundary through the existing security fenece of the Barney Point Coal Terminal.

The nearest sensitive receptors to Area 2 are the residences located on Harbour Terrace approximately 500m from the Area 2 site boundary.

Area 2 site is located on undeveloped, reclaimed land which has recently had bulk earthworks carried out by Gladstone Port Corporation (GPC) to achieve a site that drains freely and is suitable to handle the vehicles travelling on it. Area 2 will be further developed by QGC including carrying out:

Minor Earthworks (Cut and Fill)

Installation of temporary buildings, fences, roads, utilities and services

Machinery operation and lighting

Construction related truck movements.




Photo 1 Auckland Point Area 2

2.4. Filling and Excavation Works

Upon completion of rough grading, QGC, using experienced contractors, will commence construction of the surfacing layers. Typically 100mm of crushed gravel will be layered and compacted across the work area, graded in accordance with the detailed design drawings, except where road cross sections require additional materials. During earthworks, temporary drainage shall be established to manage construction storm water. This shall be routed through temporary ditches, using a combination of check dams, silt fencing, sedimentation control ponds and/or treatment to limit suspended solids and particulate matter being discharged.

The finished surface will have an asphaltic surface treatment (chip seal) for dust control. This will be maintained throughout the duration of the operations of the facility as ongoing measures to tackle fugitive dust control. In addition, a water truck will be available to provide moisture to any dry areas between maintenance periods. The roads will also be regularly kept clean of any standing dust and debris which can become airborne.

Asphalt paving will be required for the road connecting Area 2 to Tug Berth Access Road. Paving will also be required for the road located on the west boundary of Area 2. These roads will handle large volumes of traffic.




Paved areas and roads will be designed to accommodate maximum allowable vehicle loading.

2.5. Area 2 Drainage Management

Bulk earthworks at Auckland Point have be carried out by GPC taking into account the overall drainage requirements of the site to achieve a site that drains freely. The site drainage at Area 2 will be designed to channel and control run-off internal to the work areas, which in turn will limit the sedimentation released to the overall area drainage scheme. In addition these areas will be sealed and maintained which will also limit contamination to the surface water.

2.6. Overview of Auckland Point Area 2 Facility Layout

This area is required is required to facilitate the movement of personnel, freight and equipment which is being transported to and from Curtis Island. The proposed layout for Area 2 is as shown on the drawings.

Final surfacing and hard standing, incorporating requirements for site drainage of the area (tied into the drainage outside of the area).

Provide for the movement of personnel who live within a radius of 60km from Gladstone and will be required to work on Curtis Island.

Provide approximately 900 car and 60 motorcycle parking spaces.

The following temporary facilities will be provided to support construction operations:

- Security/Visitor office

- Management office

- Security huts

- Ferry operation office

- Toilet unit

- Training and induction facility

- Turnstile unit

- Smoking area

A five (5) space car parking area will be provided next to the Security / Visitors Office.

Footpaths will be provided to separate pedestrian traffic from vehicular traffic.

A passenger walkway at grade level crossing McFarlan Drive will be used to mobilise workers from Area 2 to ferries.

The road along the western boundary of the parking area will provide a 16 vehicle lane for trucks awaiting loading onto the self-propelled Ro-Ro vessels.

A road along the eastern boundary of the parking area will provide a 14 vehicle lane for buses waiting to pick up and drop off passengers from the ferry landing.




A 7m wide access road (Access Road 1) will be constructed along the south boundary of the site which will connect the existing Tug Berth Access Road to Area 2 and McFarlan Drive.

2.7. Roads

Access Road 1 (approximately 670m in length) will be at least 10m wide and will be designed to handle heavy construction equipment traffic. This road will be a paved two way road and will be used as the main access to Area 2 and the Barney Point coal facility. The sub base, base and pavement for the construction of Access Road 1 (RD1), will be designed to handle heavy construction equipment traffic. Refer to the drawings included in the drawings included in Attachment A.

All other internal roads will be 6m wide and will have to be designed for heavy vehicle movement. Internal roads will not have high volumes of traffic and therefore an asphaltic surface treatment (chip seal) can be used.

2.8. Traffic and Car Parking

Internal traffic movement between and within Areas 1 and 2 is managed by a Traffic Management Plan and will comply with the control measures outlined in Section 6.16. An explanation of the proposed traffic management strategy is set out below.

All vehicles for the Construction Services Facility will enter to the south of the car park and exit at the stop sign located to the north. The direction of travel is one-way, travelling in clockwise direction. Large vehicles will enter the site via the entrance security hut in the south eastern corner and be marshalled through the facility, exiting via the exit security gate and stop sign opposite to the north of Area 1. Trucks direct to vessels will then travel from the truck marshalling area in Area 1 to the loading dock via RD-1.

The internal traffic movement has been designed for adequate and safe traffic movement. RD-1 will be used as the main access to Area 2. Therefore, all personnel parking in Area 2 and trailers going from Area 1 to the self-propelled RO-RO vessels and back will transit using this road. Trailers from Area 1 will line up along the road bordering the western boundary of Area 2 where wheels and undercarriage will be inspected for pests, and where required be washed. This road will be used exclusively by trucks and trailers going to and coming back from Curtis Island. A bypass road will be provided around the truck wash unit. This bypass will be used by vehicles not boarding the self-propelled RO-RO vessels and that do not need to be washed.

Wheel washing will be performed as an efficient means to comply with the requirements of Section 46 of the Land Protection (Pest and Stock Route Management) Act 2002 in the transfer of pests from the mainland to Curtis Island.




It is not expected to have oversized truck movements of any significant number. The road width for RD-1 is 10m to allow for safe two-way traffic movement, and the possibility of any large vehicle movements. Large vehicle movements will be coordinated with other users of Port Central, and timings of movements planned during times of the day, or on days, when other users’ requirements are at their lowest.

Signage at the entrance to Port Central area and on RD-1, will warn other users of this access way’s potential of high traffic volumes during peak times, which is when project employees will be starting and finishing shifts. The signage will clearly communicate the days and times when this can be anticipated, and a contact name and phone number to which concerns can be addressed. Flag men will be assigned to manage and facilitate traffic flow during these peak times, working with other users of the Port Central area, as required.

Daily transportation of personnel is planned during the construction phase of the QCLNG plant, to and from Auckland Point and Curtis Island. The Auckland Point marine facility will provide for the movement of 800 personnel who live within a radius of 60 kilometres of Auckland Point, to and from Curtis Island each work day.

In general, the project will receive freight between 8:00am and 3:00pm. This is intended to work self-propelled RO-RO vessel movements separately from passenger ferry movements, the result of which is de-coupling the peak private vehicle and truck movements through the overall Port Central area, and the surrounding road infrastructure.

Coal terminal access will be relocated from the existing quayside location and another gate will be provided by GPC to a less congested location at the South-East corner of the Area 2 perimeter. This alternative will allow the Coal Terminal traffic and other users of this area, access to move directly along RD-1, avoiding the interactions with the wharf, marshalling or ferry loading activities.

3.5. Licenses and Permits

The Contractor will comply with the relevant licences, permits, registrations and approvals obtained by QGC that are applicable to the construction work.




4. Environmental Risk Assessment Process The design and construction and associated risk management processes shall be in accordance with the relevant standards including but not limited to: Workplace Health and Safety Advisory Standards and Codes of Practice; and Australian Standards, except where the risk management processes demonstrate that higher standards of risk control are required to adequately manage those hazards inherent to the construction activities, in which case these should be incorporated into the designs.

The Contractor has used a risk management process to put in place appropriate environmental control measures addressing the design and construction of the Works and which takes account of the relative construction activities, standards and reasonably foreseeable misuse, on a basis of observing the “Hierarchy of Controls” principles e.g.:

Elimination of the hazard

Substitution with a less hazardous material, process or equipment

Designing the equipment / process to mitigate the risk

Separation/isolation of the hazard to reduce the requirement for administrative/personal protective equipment controls.

The full Risk Register will be maintained electronically in the site files and will be updated throughout the duration of the construction activities or when works change. An initial Risk Register has been prepared for construction works at Auckland Point Area 2 and this is provided as Attachment B. Additional risks will be assessed and control measures implemented as they are identified during further development of Work Method Statements (WMS).

7. Environmental Performance 7.1. Environmental Inspection

The Contractor HSSE Manager, will perform and document regular field inspections (at least two per work week) to verify that the environmental requirements specified in this CECP are being implemented during construction activities. The actual inspection schedules will be dictated by the type of construction activities occurring and the environmental requirements relevant to those activities. Subcontractors will be expected to inspect their work areas and storage/laydown areas daily. The Contractor HSSE Manager will periodically verify these activities are occurring by reviewing the Subcontractor’s environmental records using Environmental Field Inspection Procedures, including applicable checklists and forms for completing the inspections.

The environmental inspection checklists will include details of observations, the responsible party, and when the situation will be mitigated. Example checklists are included as Attachment D. The Contractor HSSE Manager will implement required environmental improvements and maintain an Action Tracking database that will identify the status of corrective actions. Open actions will be reviewed in the weekly progress meeting to help promote timely closeout.

If necessary, “stop work” orders will be issued if construction activities are not in accordance with the applicable environmental requirements and may result in a significant adverse impact to the environment if the activity continues. For example, a culturally significant artefact find or a significant hazardous substance spill. If such conditions exist, the Contractor HSSE Manager will take appropriate action to halt and correct the problem and immediately notify the Contractor Site Manager, and other personnel, as appropriate. The construction activity in question will not resume until corrective actions have been taken.

Should site self assessments by the Contractor HSSE Manager indicate trends considered unacceptable by the Contractor Site Manager, offsite evaluations and audits may be performed through Contractor and/or QGC HSSE personnel. The results of those evaluations will be shared with the Contractor Site Manager and the Contractor HSSE Manager.

Inspections records and audit reports will be available for review by the administering agency upon request.

7.2. Environmental Auditing

Environmental audits are intended to determine whether the requirements of the CECP are properly implemented and maintained on site. Accordingly, auditing is to be undertaken to confirm that activities are carried out in line with the defined requirements, and are producing the required performance outcomes. The audits will cover the full spectrum, from compliance




with strategic procedures to compliance with job-specific procedures. These audits will be initiated by the relevant Contractor HSSE Manager and performed by a suitably qualified external Third Party Auditor who is accepted by the administering authority. An audit will be conducted within three (3) months of commencement of construction activities at Auckland Point. A copy of the final version of the auditor’s report will be submitted directly to the administering authority within twenty (20) business days of completing the audit, and accompanied with a statutory declaration, stating that the report accurately represents the findings of the Third Party Auditor. Thereafter, audits will be conducted annually.

An audit procedure will include the following:

Review the scope, plan and schedule of the audit.

- Examine objective evidence (documented environmental records, direct observations of non-conformance/potential opportunities and personnel interviews) to verify conformance with CECP requirements.

- Give specific attention to continual improvement actions developed in response to previous audit findings.

- Post-audit communication to present audit findings, clarify any misunderstandings and summarise the audit findings.

The audit program will be reviewed annually and revised to reflect any improvements to the methodology, auditors or timeframe of audits.

An Audit Summary Report will be completed within three weeks of completing an audit and the results discussed at the next management meeting.

The Audit Summary Report will list improvement actions required to prevent a recurrence of any identified issues or to maximise opportunities for improvement.

A summary of Project elements that will be subject to audit is provided in Table 4 below.

Traffic and Transport

Indigenous Cultural Heritage

Non-indigenous Cultural Heritage

Stakeholder Management

Monitoring will be undertaken by suitably qualified personnel. All instruments, equipment and measuring devices used for measuring or monitoring must be calibrated, and appropriately operated and maintained. Results of monitoring will be maintained on record, compiled and reported internally and will be made available for inspection as required by QGC’s Environmental Management System. Any external audits conducted by GPC, DERM or other government agencies and auditors appointed by QGC will also be recorded internally and will be made available for inspection.

The administering authority must be notified within seven (7) days of completion of analysis of any result of a monitoring program that indicates an exceedance of any limit specified in the project approvals. The written notification must include:

The full analysis results

Details of investigation or corrective actions taken

Any subsequent analysis.

Potential Acid Sulphate Soils (ASS) has been identified on Curtis Island, however, it is not considered to be of considerable concern nor is it detrimental to the project. A site specific Acid Sulphate Soils Management Plan (ASSMP) has been prepared for the construction of the Marine Facility, and is integrated within the wider QCLNG Project Acid Sulphate Soil Strategic Management Framework.

7.4. Reporting and Compliance Checking

To assist in meeting Project environmental compliance requirements, environmental compliance reviews/coordination meetings will be held among appropriate Project personnel, including the Contractor Site Manager, the Contractor HSSE Manager, the lead Subcontractor representatives and other staff (as applicable). The purpose of these meetings will be to discuss current and future construction activities as they relate to maintaining environmental compliance. Typically, these meetings will occur as part of the Weekly Subcontractor Progress Review Meetings, but may be held more frequently as construction activities warrant.

7.5. Identifying Environmental Issues and Corrective Actions

7.5.1. Emergency and Incident Management

An environmental emergency or incident will be regarded as any action that harms or has the potential to cause significant harm to the environment. In the event that an environmental emergency or incident occurs, the following steps will be followed immediately:




Prevent further pollution/environmental harm (including impacts on air, water quality, flora and fauna and noise environment)

Clean-up and/or control polluting substance(s)

Implement mitigation measures to prevent recurrence of a similar incident

Document the incident and instigate an incident investigation as appropriate.

Incidents will be reported within a maximum window of 24 hours to the relevant Contractor HSSE Manager. Any emergency or incident which results in the release of contaminants or mismanagement of waste not in accordance, or reasonably expected to be not in accordance with project approvals, will be reported by the Contractor HSSE Manager to the Gladstone Port Corporation and other appropriate agencies, in accordance with statutory requirements. The notification of emergencies or incidents must include the following:

The holder of the development approval

The location of the emergency or incident

The number of the development approval

The name and telephone number of the Contractor HSSE Manager

The time of the release/mismanagement incident

The time the holder became aware of the release/mismanagement incident

The suspected cause of the release/mismanagement incident

The environmental harm caused, threatened, or suspected to be caused by the release/mismanagement incident

Actions taken to prevent further release and mitigate any environmental harm caused by the release/mismanagement incident.

Not more than fourteen (14) days following the initial notification of an emergency or incident, written advice must be provided of the information previously supplied, and:

Proposed actions to prevent a recurrence of the emergency or incident

Outcomes of actions taken at the time to prevent or minimise environmental harm/ nuisance.

7.5.2. Complaints and Responses

Attention to complaints should be carefully managed, be prompt and effective, and should form a key part of the environmental reporting mechanism. All complaints received must be recorded including details of complainant, reasons for the complaint, investigations undertaken, conclusions formed and actions taken. Except in cases where the complaint is considered to be a matter for which the holder is in compliance, is frivolous, vexatious, or based on a mistaken belief, corrective action must be taken as soon as practicable to investigate the cause and resolve the complaint. Corrective actions, recommendations and procedures, including




modifications to practices where applicable, should be made and closed out under the direction of the Contractor Site Manager.

The procedure for complaints should include:

A procedure for receiving and responding to complaints that is acceptable to the relevant agency.

A process for registering and handling complaints received in terms of:

- Time and date of complaint

- The identity of the complainant and the recorder of the complaint

- The specific action or activity causing the complaint

- Whether environmental compliance requirements are being met

- The action taken to address the complaint if necessary

A database for tracking of complaints and actions taken in response.

Immediate communication of the complaint to the Contractor.

Details on how the action taken is to be communicated to the complainant and the Contractor.

Feedback to the complainant and the relevant agency as required within a specified time period.

Any subsequent remedial action required to avoid cause for future complaints if relevant.

Regular reporting to the relevant agency of complaints and corrective actions.

Monitoring and auditing of the complaint handling system.




8. Communication 8.1. Internal Communication

Environmental protection will be achieved through clear and concise internal communications, which will include regularly scheduled environmental meetings. Minutes will be recorded for follow-up on specific or corrective actions raised during the environmental meetings.

8.2. External Communication

For clear and unambiguous communication the Contractor HSSE Manager will have responsibility for contact with all environmental agencies. Only personnel nominated by the Contractor Site Manager should be involved in consultation with external agencies on environmental issues.

The Contractor HSSE Manager will make regular contact with the various environmental agencies to keep them informed of the work status. The Contractor HSSE Managers involvement with regulatory agencies will be initially coordinated with QGC. This regular contact may include meetings and scheduled site visits, so that open discussion is maintained on all environmental aspects of the construction activities. The Contractor HSSE Manager may also attend other meetings with regulatory agencies, municipal agencies, and citizen groups as requested to help maintain communication concerning permit conditions, mitigation practices, and problem resolution.

Following the initial coordination with regulatory agencies performed by QGC mentioned above, when the Contractor HSSE Manager attends meetings with regulatory agencies, the Contractor HSSE Manager will continue to invite QGC to attend meetings, unless and until directed to do otherwise by QGC. Further details and clarification (e.g. a decision tree stating when QGC is to be invited) regarding the interface with regulatory agencies will be developed by QGC as the QCLNG Project progresses. Field Engineering personnel may also be requested to contact environmental agencies as part of their permitting activities.

8.3. Community Engagement and Consultation

Stakeholder management measures specific to the construction activities have been detailed in the management section and tables above. In general the community engagement process established includes:

Early establishment of community information services which may include telephone service, project website and email service, regular newsletters, scheduled information sessions or open days.

Availability of information through the QCLNG Project website generally and in response to specific inquiries about environmental performance.




Early and on-going engagement with owners and occupants of premises adjacent to the proposed works or proposed mitigation measures.

Where required, special procedures to respond to complaints, issues or incidents, such as face-to-face meetings and on-going communications with affected parties and a documented process for issues resolution.

Further to the process outlined above the consultation with property owners and occupants of residences identified as potentially affected by the construction works, as well as the wider community, will be conducted throughout the construction period.




9. Training and Environmental Awareness Environmental education is an important part of an effective environmental compliance program and the overall HSSE program. The curricula stress the importance of maintaining “environmental awareness” in the personnel's everyday duties. Presentations will be followed by a question and answer period.

Project personnel will receive training an induction into the CECP to familiarisation them with the relevant management systems and requirements, as appropriate to their roles and responsibilities.

Environmental management training will address:

The role of the CECP

Personnel responsibilities

Incident and emergency response

Health and safety instruction

Identification and understanding of the environmental issues outlined in the CECP

Specific topics as applicable to the individual’s role

Gladstone Ports Corporation Limited’s environmental policy.

Attendance records for personnel induction/training will be maintained onsite.

9.1. New-Hire Orientation – Environmental Awareness

New-hire orientation and training is a mandated part of training for onsite construction personnel and will be delivered by the Contractor HSSE Manager or a designated training coordinator. In addition to HSSE performance and site rules, the following environmental topics will be covered:

General site maintenance (e.g. good housekeeping, environmental controls maintenance).

Waste management rules and requirements (e.g., waste transfer, burn restrictions, aerosol can segregation, storage area management, proper labelling, and waste disposal).

Hazardous material/waste handling (e.g. hazard identification, MSDS, incompatible segregation, container management, proper labelling).

Erosion and sediment control (e.g. assessing site conditions and erosion control requirements, installing and maintaining erosion and sediment control measures while working in an area, reporting non-functioning erosion control measures).

Sensitive areas protection (e.g. working only within approved limits, maintaining buffers zones around sensitive resources, storing hazardous materials away from ocean shores and streams).

Endangered species awareness and protection (e.g. endangered species in the area, identifying unusual plants and animals in the area, reporting sightings).




Interaction with local wildlife (e.g. hunting, fishing and foraging rules, how to behave when you encounter a wild and/or potentially dangerous animal).

Dust control measures (e.g. speed restrictions).

Pest control (e.g. red imported fire ants, biting midges, feral animals).

Unanticipated discoveries (e.g. stop work immediately if archaeological artefacts, contaminated soils, containers, pipes, and/or tanks are discovered/uncovered, immediately notify supervisor).

Spill prevention and response (e.g. proper storage of hazardous materials, secondary containment, spill response, and notifications).

Environmental awareness training will be included in each construction New-Hire Orientation. Each new starter will be required to attend New-Hire Orientation before working on the job site and records will be kept of personnel who attend.

9.2. Supervisor Construction Environmental Awareness Training

Supervisors and Foremen will receive additional environmental awareness training to aid them in recognizing and responding to environmental compliance related conditions. This training discusses overall environmental compliance program and provides compliance recognition training. This training stresses the Supervisor’s role in recognizing and responding to environmental compliance needs.

9.3. Hazardous Material Management and Spill Response Training

Supervisors, foremen and subcontractors will receive additional hazardous material management training, including how to avoid spills and how to respond to minor spills. Attendees will be documented. This training will be presented by the Contractor HSSE Manager.

Additional environmental training classes may be developed for Project specific situations and/or issues. If required, these training classes will be prepared and presented by the Contractor HSSE Manager.

9.4. Construction Execution Plans

Work Method Statements (WMS) convert construction specifications into a task or method-specific approach.

9.5. Toolbox Talks

Toolbox Talks will be held regularly in order to cascade relevant information is communicated to the workforce and that feedback can be provided on issues of interest or concern. These talks will be undertaken to review issues associated with upcoming work activities, including cultural heritage, the environment and safety. Records will be kept for Toolbox Talk Agendas,




attendance and outcomes. Sessions will include discussion of strategies to be implemented as identified in job hazard analysis (JHAs).

9.6. Job Hazard Analysis

A JHA will be undertaken to help personnel identify, analyse and manage the hazards associated with their work. The JHA will formalise the process of hazard identification and management that most people follow when working. The JHA will require personnel to examine the task they are about to undertake by:

Breaking the job into separate, defined steps.

Identifying the potential hazards (safety and environmental) that could occur during each defined step.

Listing the method to be followed to prevent or limit the risk of injury, loss, damage or environmental incident that may be caused by each potential hazard.




10. Emergency Preparedness and Response Preparedness includes developing response procedures for anticipated emergencies, pre-positioning emergency response materials (e.g. spill kits, fire fighting tools) and training and equipping adequate numbers of emergency responders. In addition to the available capability to QGC and its subcontractors, specialty subcontractors may be available for response to exceptional emergencies, such as a large fuel spill on water.

An Emergency Response for Environmental Incidents Management Plan, including safety, security and environmental procedures, describes the preparedness measures and response that will be conducted in the event of an emergency. Environmental emergencies may involve spills of dangerous goods on land or water, unanticipated discovery of hazardous materials, unanticipated discovery of cultural resources, wildfire, unauthorised discharge of storm water or other contaminated water, unauthorised release of air pollutants, and unexpected encounters with wildlife. Response to an emergency generally follows these steps:

Stop the source of the problem if it is safe to do so

Contain the problem to the extent possible

Report the problem

Clean up and remediate the affected resources.




11. Document Control 11.1. Document Control and Record Management

The system used for control of management and technical documents including “controlled” documents subject to revision will enable the complete management of all documents, including the identification of document or drawing lists, author and recipient management, and various forms of reporting.

11.2. CECP Review

This CECP, its operation and implementation, and the associated elements of the accompanying environmental management systems, will be reviewed every 6 months for conformance with the QCLNG environmental policies and objectives, and legal and other requirements. In addition, if during construction, Corrective or Preventative Actions are raised indicating that amendments are required to the CECP; this will also trigger the review process. A review may also be undertaken following request by the administering authority.

The outcomes of the management review process will be incorporated as improvements to the CECP, WMS’ and other procedures/plans, to facilitate regulatory and policy compliance and continuous improvement.

The agenda for the management reviews will typically include:

Progress of the CECP implementation

Management effectiveness

Adequacy of resources

Results of the audits

Critical non-conformance or repeated non-conformances

Overall performance against benchmarks

Organisation changes

Training.

If the text or body of the CECP is required to be updated at any stage during the construction process, a revised copy will be submitted relevant agencies with a consultation or approval role.
