INFRASTRUCTURE AND MAINTENANCE BUILDING Rev. No.: 00
Date:
Environmental Management Plan Page 12 of 50

7.1.3 Legislation and Project-specific Requirements

Project management must evaluate legislation for applicability to the site; this activity should be
done well in advance of work starting on site. This evaluation should also include project specific
requirements such as permit conditions and client specifications. This action will identify any
specific requirements that can be incorporated into the design of the facility and the EMP for field
execution activities on the site.

7.1.4 Possible Risks

Project management must list the possible risks that exist due to the nature of the site and the
nature of the construction activities proposed on the site.

Risk may include:

 Lateral migration of contaminants already in the soil into the nearby sensitive
receptors, (e.g., surface water dikes, rivers and lakes.);
 Movement and storage of contaminated soil causing contamination;
 Contamination of groundwater during earthwork operations;
 Migration of leached contaminants arising from the reuse of crushed demolition
materials;
 Discharge of effluent from wheel washing or other cleaning processes;
 Discharge of pumped groundwater from dewatering or excavations;
 Incorrect disposal of storm water and other silty waters;
 Spillages of pollutants due to bad storage and handling of materials, or inadvertent
disposal to surface water drains rather than sewer; and
 Washout from concreting operations.
 Typical questions that the Project team should consider in developing the potential risks are
listed below.
 Is the groundwater under the site subject to some tidal influence?
 Can contamination of the site potentially cause harm to sensitive receptors in the
vicinity?
 Does the groundwater and/or the surface water on the site contain levels of some
materials in excess of legal standards?

7.1.5 Background Data

If it exists, Project Management must provide data on existing water quality and levels around
the site. Management must provide details of the location of existing local water courses and mark
the position of surface water drains and sewers on site, using color-coding to distinguish them.

7.1.6 Waste water Mitigation Measures

SINOHYDRO are specifically required to implement pollution prevention measures, based on the
potential risk identified in above. Typical mitigation measures based on the potential risks must be
identified.
Some examples are provided below.

Groundwater
 No groundwater will discharge from the site to controlled water unless this has been
previously agreed with the relevant authorities and the relevant permissions are in
place and the composition of the groundwater can be discharged within the conditions
of the permission.
 If it is necessary to dewater the site to allow field execution operations to be
undertaken, an appropriate approval must be obtained from the local authorities.

Surface Water / Controlled Water Protection:

 If discharges need to be made from the site, including the storm water runoff, the
appropriate permits need to be sought from the local authorities, notifications filed, and
the discharges need to be made within the conditions of the permit. Monitoring may be
a requirement of the permit conditions.
 Management and control of surface waters on the site should eliminate the potential
for contaminated run-off to impact local water quality. Water collection systems should
be adequately sized to allow for the controlled release of storm flows. Silty water
disposal measures should be reviewed and accepted by the local authorities. A
Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan may be required prior to commencement of
construction activities.
 Suitable protective measures must be installed around open sections of surface water
to prevent surface water ingress into the construction site.
 Collection of any soil arising from the construction site prior to offsite disposal should
be remote from any surface water and should be arranged in such a way as to
minimize the potential generation of leachate.
 Minimize the potential for lateral migrations of contaminants into nearby sensitive
receptors, by minimizing the time excavations are open.

Foul Water Discharge

 Foul waste will be discharged to the existing foul water drainage system.
 Site drainage will be coded in accordance with local authorities and/or client requirements
for easy identification. Identification may be based on color.
 The trucking of sanitary wastewater from the point of generation to appropriate sewage
treatment plants shall be manifested in accordance with SAUDI ARAMCO Hazardous Waste
Code, Section 6.
 Municipal dumping areas shall not be used for disposal of wastewater. SINOHYDROS wishing

Environmental Procedures
 Prior to commencement of any work, SINOHYDRO Construction Management and
SINOHYDROs will submit environmental procedures, including the measures that will
be taken to protect the environment, for approval by SINOHYDRO Project
Management and the client.
 Environmental protection measures in relation to any work involving the use
movement, and storage of fuel or chemicals will be fully documented and accepted by
SINOHYDRO prior the commencement of work.

Monitoring
Regular inspections of all discharges, drainage systems, collection ditches, lagoons,
interceptors, and watercourses will be undertaken to check that these items are in good order.

Documentation
Records will be maintained of all environmental incidents that result in water contamination
and remedial action taken in an incident logbook. Records of correspondence with the client
and local authorities and copies of discharge consents will be maintained.

7.2 Air Quality

Date:
Environmental Management Plan Page 15 of 50

7.2.1 Introduction

Those activities that have the potential to affect local air quality and cause environmental nuisance to
local residential and surrounding areas must be identified. Project Management must adopt
appropriate control measures to mitigate these impacts.
Dust, emissions and odors can adversely affect air quality.

7.2.2 Relevant Legislation and Guidance

Legislation applicable to a site must be evaluated according to Presidency of Meteorology &

Environment; this activity should be done well in advance of work starting on site. This evaluation
should also include project specific requirements such as permit conditions and client specifications.
This action will identify any specific requirements that can be incorporated into the design of the facility
and the EMP for construction activities on the site.

7.2.3 Possible Risks

Dusty emissions escaping the site may cause nuisance through surface impact, loss of visual amenity
through deposition, and effects on flora and fauna.
The most prominent cause for concern to the surrounding land users is likely to be dust and may arise
from activities such as:
 Demolition;
 Site preparation;
 Excavation;
 Earth movements;
 Air pollution from poorly maintained vehicles and equipment;
 Poorly maintained unpaved roads.
 Blending of soil or granular materials which may cause fugitive dust emission.
 Blasting and crushing.
 Rock breaking operations.

7.2.4 Mitigation Measures

SINOHYDRO are specifically required to implement pollution prevention measures, based on the
potential risk identified in above. Typical mitigation measures based on the potential risks must be
identified.
Some examples of typical mitigation measures are provided below.

 Since it is difficult to suppress dust once it is airborne, it is preferable to prevent dust

from being generated in the first place, where possible.
 Project Name: KING SALMAN ENERGY PARK (SPARK) Doc. No.:
INFRASTRUCTURE AND MAINTENANCE BUILDING Rev. No.: 00
Date:
Environmental Management Plan Page 16 of 50

 All vehicles shall be properly maintained to minimize excessive exhaust emissions and
shall comply with the Standardization & Metrology Organization for Gulf Cooperation
Council (GCC) Countries Standards:
 - GCC Standard # 47 "Motor Vehicles - Allowable Limits of Gaseous Pollutants Emitted
to the Atmosphere from Gasoline Engine Vehicles". - GCC Standard # 144 "Motor
Vehicles - Allowable Limits of Pollutants Emitted to the Atmosphere from Heavy Duty
Diesel Engine Vehicles". - GCC Standard # 145 "Motor Vehicles - Method for Testing
for Pollutants Emitted from Heavy Duty Diesel Engine Vehicles - Part 1: Determination
of Exhaust Gaseous Pollutants".
 Control measures and dust suppression techniques are to be implemented in order to
protect the health of site workers and the general public, and to comply with
occupational exposure standards.
 Plan, locate, and control all possible work-site activities that have the potential to
generate dust or smoke so that nearby sensitive receptors is not adversely affected.
 Consider additional protection measures such as screening and covering and
implement as appropriate.
 Enclosed chutes will be used for dropping to ground level demolition materials that
have the potential to cause dust.
 Any crushing equipment required will be kept away from sensitive areas.
 During earthworks and excavations, the site will be kept damp during dry weather and
will be revegetated, sealed, or completed as soon as possible.
 If needed, an appropriate wheel washing facility will be maintained at site to minimize
and reduce the risk of dust emissions and deposition of material on the public roads.
This facility will operate for the duration of the construction works as deemed
necessary to control dust emissions and nuisance.
 All SINOHYDROs and employees will be informed during orientation and further
training about the need to minimize dust emissions to neighboring property and
residents and of the health hazards associated with exposure to emissions.
 All equipment and vehicles will be maintained in good repair and conform to the
relevant legislative requirements and emission standards. Mitigation measures could
include low-sulfur fuels, soot filters, and catalytic emission controls as specified by
project-specific requirements. The use of vehicles and equipment that fails to meet
emission limits will not be permitted until such time as they have been serviced and re-
tested. SINOHYDRO will maintain records of equipment maintenance and defect
reports.
 Vehicle exhausts shall be directed vertically upwards where possible and directed
away from the ground at minimum. Stationery equipment shall be sited as far from
inhabited buildings as possible.
 Wherever possible, vehicles and equipment shall not be left running for long periods
when not directly in use. Where appropriate, electrically powered equipment shall be
used instead of gasoline or diesel powered equipment.
 Stationery equipment shall be located as far from sensitive receptors and inhabited
buildings as is reasonably practical.

Environmental Management Plan Page 17 of 50

 Vehicles transporting materials, capable of generating dust, to and from site shall be
suitably covered on each journey to prevent release of materials and particulate
matter. The sheeting material will be maintained in good order, free from excessive
rips and tear.
 Speed limits on unpaved surfaces will be set to minimize dust generation where
practicable. In populated areas, maximum speed limits will be set to minimize
exposure.
 Unsurfaced roads will be routinely dampened especially during dry periods and

7.3.3 Background information

Background noise levels should be obtained, if appropriate, before field execution operations begin.
The methods of monitoring and the locations for monitoring should be determined based on relevant
local guidance and the proximity of local sensitive receptors, utilizing local consultants as appropriate.
If the proposed field execution methods are likely to give rise to vibration, it is useful to survey sensitive
locations and structures prior to the start of work.

7.3.4 Relevant Guidance

Legislation applicable to a site must be evaluated; this activity should be done well in advance of work
starting on site. This action will identify any specific requirements that can be incorporated into the
design of the facility and the EMP for construction activities on the site.

7.3.5 Possible Risks

Possible risks that exist due to the nature of the site and the nature of the construction activities
proposed on the site must be listed. Risk may include the following;
 Earthworks;
 Excavations and groundworks;
 Breaking out with pneumatic tools;
 Falling ball demolition;
 Piling and structure works;
 Fabrication and assembly of structural steel; and
 Transportation.
 Blasting and Crushing.

7.3.6 Vibration and Noise Management Objectives

Vibration and noise management objectives must be listed for the specific project. Some typical points
at which noise limits may be set are listed below.
 65 dB(A) at a distance of one meter from existing building facades;
 75 dB (A) at the site boundaries neighboring roads and car parks; and
 80 dB (A) at all other site boundaries.
 Occupational exposure shall be less than 90 DB without PPE protection.

 Project Name: KING SALMAN ENERGY PARK (SPARK) Doc. No.:
INFRASTRUCTURE AND MAINTENANCE BUILDING Rev. No.: 00
Date:
Environmental Management Plan Page 20 of 50

 Planning;
 Field execution method;
 Field execution sequence; and
 Tool and equipment selection.

SINOHYDRO will be specifically required to implement noise / vibration prevention / mitigation

measures, based on the potential risk identified above.

Mitigation measures fall into a number of categories namely:

 Effective site management;
 Engineering control;
 Acoustic screening;
 Restricted hours of working;
 Liaison with the local community;
 Provision of sound insulation;
 Noise Monitoring; and
 Vehicle speed restriction.

Some examples of typical mitigation measures are provided below.

 Keep neighbors informed regarding the work that is to be undertaken on site and the
associated duration.
 Prior to commencement of particularly noisy operations, an environmental procedure
detailing the method of works, program of work, predicted noise levels and
manufacturers specifications for equipment and machinery will be submitted to
SINOHYDRO field execution management and the client for acceptance.
 Consideration will be given to reducing noise by undertaking noisy assembly practices
off site where practicable.
 Where appropriate, noise reduction methods will be used. These methods could
include using fencing or stockpiles for screening. These will be maintained for the
duration that they are required.
 Particularly noisy activities will be limited to certain periods of the day where
appropriate.
 All vehicles, compressors and mobile equipment will be equipped with effective
silencers and noise reducing insulation.
 Work practices will be adopted such that noise emissions are kept to a minimum, (i.e.,
equipment not in constant use will be switched off, excessive revving of vehicles will
not be permitted and noise suppressions covered will be closed at all times).
 Where possible noisy equipment will be located away from sensitive noise boundaries.
Where this is not possible, noise emissions will be controlled by the erection of
acoustic shielding, or siting behind site accommodation or spoil heaps as appropriate.
 Loading and unloading of vehicles, dismantling of site equipment such as scaffolding
or moving equipment or materials around site will be conducted in such a manner as
 Project Name: KING SALMAN ENERGY PARK (SPARK) Doc. No.:
INFRASTRUCTURE AND MAINTENANCE BUILDING Rev. No.: 00
Date:
Environmental Management Plan Page 21 of 50

to minimize noise generation and where possible will be conducted away from noise
sensitive areas.
 If elevated noise / vibration levels are encountered, the source of noise or vibration is
to be identified and alternative methods or additional control measures are to be
implemented.
 A maximum speed limit of 10 mph (16 kph) will apply on the site for the safety of the
workforce and to minimize disturbance from noise and dust.
 Where possible, electrically powered equipment will be used in preference to diesel or
gasoline powered equipment, as it is quieter.
 Mobile equipment and machinery will be properly maintained to minimize noise
generation.
 SINOHYDRO will investigate noise complaints and excesses of any agreed maximum
acceptable levels immediately.
 In the event of vibration becoming a concern, an assessment will be undertaken in
accordance with local regulations and standards, if applicable.

7.3.8 Monitoring

If required, regular noise monitoring will be performed at site boundaries, as agreed with the client,
and should take into account any requirements under applicable local requirements.

The monitoring shall be required for:

 Occupational Exposure (Noise and Vibration);
 Noise Levels at the site boundary and sensitive receptors; and
 Vibration Levels at the site boundary and sensitive receptors

If vibration monitoring is required, it should be undertaken inside rooms when assessing for nuisance
and measured on the structure outside when assessing for damage. For sensitive structures, visual
monitoring and the measurement of crack widths is the best way to determine whether damage is
being caused.

7.3.9 Documentation

Records will be kept of all environmental incidents associated with noise and / or vibration and
remedial action taken in an incident logbook. Complaints received will also be recorded and
investigated. SINOHYDRO is required to maintain records of all correspondence with the client
regarding noise and vibration nuisance in accordance with the Client standard.
Records of vehicle and equipment maintenance will be kept and made available to the client as
required.
Copies of the monitoring results will be made available to the authorities and the client upon request.

8 Wildlife, Flora, Fauna and Natural Features

8.1 Introduction

Construction activities that have the potential to affect wildlife, flora, and / or fauna and natural features
will be identified. Project management must adopt appropriate control measures to mitigate those
impacts.
In particularly sensitive locations, it may be necessary to avoid disturbance during certain times of the
year, such as hibernation, mating, or birthing seasons. Activities will be scheduled in consideration of
sensitive times of the year. In addition, it may be necessary to avoid designated wetland areas on or
adjacent to the site.

8.1.2 Relevant Legislation

Legislation applicable to a site must be evaluated; this activity should be done well in advance of work
starting on site. This action will identify any specific requirements that can be incorporated into the
design of the facility and the EMP for construction activities on the site.
 Project Name: KING SALMAN ENERGY PARK (SPARK) Doc. No.:
INFRASTRUCTURE AND MAINTENANCE BUILDING Rev. No.: 00
Date:
Environmental Management Plan Page 43 of 50

8.1.3 Baseline Data and Sensitive Receptors

SINOHYDRO will identify any sensitive receptors that may be impacted and provide the results of
survey for SAPMT. Where an EIA has been undertaken, the baseline data will form part of the project.
The EIA should be referenced in the documentation. Where an EIA has NOT been undertaken, it is
important to establish if there are any sensitive receptors in the area. If applicable, a wetlands
delineation survey should also be performed and appropriate approvals and permits secured.
SINOHYDRO should request information on the wildlife, flora, fauna and natural features from the
client along with any baseline data. These data should then be referenced and used to identify
sensitive receptors and plan appropriate mitigation procedures.
There are three main ecological issues that have to be considered on sites.
Where species or areas of the site have been identified for particular protection, studies will need to
be undertaken in advance of work starting, and appropriate working methods must be developed to
protect the specified areas on species.
Where protected species are discovered when work has already started on site, work in the affected
areas will immediately cease and SINOHYDRO will seek expert advice through the client and the
authorities. The best way forward will then be agreed.
Protection of the natural environment as a whole will be covered by the management measures listed
below.

8.1.4 Management Measures

Examples of typical management measures are listed below.

SINOHYDRO field execution management and SINOHYDROs will be required to include
environmental controls within their environmental procedures to prevent damage to the protected
wildlife, flora and fauna, and wetlands and to provide sufficient equipment and resources to effectively
implement the requirements of EMP.
SINOHYDRO field execution management will ensure that SINOHYDRO and sub SINOHYDRO
personnel are aware of environmental restrictions related to sensitive areas on and adjacent to the
project site.
SINOHYDRO field execution management, sub SINOHYDROs and employees are responsible for
fully implementing and maintaining the provisions for the EMP where they are relevant to the specific
activities of an individual, whether explicitly specified in the contract or not.
Work in close proximity to surface water should proceed with care.
If protected species are discovered or suspected, they must not be killed, expelled, or disturbed.
Where suspected protected habitats are discovered, they must not be destroyed or disturbed. In such
circumstances, work in affected areas will immediately cease and SINOHYDRO will seek expert
advice through the client and the authorities.
Storage of granular or liquid materials will not be permitted adjacent to surface water or other systems
draining to controlled waters (i.e., surface water, groundwater, lakes, and ponds), to minimize the risks
to wildlife.
In the event that other wildlife issues are identified during the course of the project, SINOHYDRO will
 Project Name: KING SALMAN ENERGY PARK (SPARK) Doc. No.:
INFRASTRUCTURE AND MAINTENANCE BUILDING Rev. No.: 00
Date:
Environmental Management Plan Page 44 of 50

consult with the client in order to develop and agree on an appropriate management strategy.
SINOHYDRO will conduct regular inspections to verify adequate implementation of any control
measures that are required. Any deviation from the requirement will be corrected.
The SINOHYDRO field execution superintendent will address questions about the environmental
management procedures or the implementation of the EMP.
Any specific measures that are required due to the presence of protected species or ecology should
be listed.

8.1.5 Documentation

SINOHYDRO will maintain all relevant documentation and copies of correspondence according to the
client requirement.

8.2.1 Visual Intrusion, Signage and Lighting

8.2.2 Introduction

SINOHYDRO is responsible for creating an environment that has minimal impact on the local
surroundings, through visual intrusion or stray lighting.

8.2.3 Management Measures

Examples of typical management measures are listed below.

 SINOHYDRO field execution management, SINOHYDROs and employees are
responsible for fully implementing and maintaining the provisions of the EMP where
they are relevant to the specific activities of an individual, whether explicitly specified in
the contract or not.
 SINOHYDRO is responsible for appropriately securing the site at all times.
 Site operations and storage of equipment will be conducted in such a manner so as to
as far as possible minimize the effects of visual intrusion to adjacent properties.
 Nighttime lighting will be such that it is sufficient to allow safe passage, but without
causing shadows or visual intrusion to adjacent properties or land.
 Temporary lighting of the building and the site will be designed to minimize light
pollution and maintain safety. Only the lighting essential for safety and security will be
kept in operation overnight. An effective switching system to provide for this
requirement will be incorporated within the scheme of lighting and power.
 SINOHYDRO will treat any complaint relating to visual intrusion or glare from stray
lighting seriously. In the event of a complaint being received, the complaint will then be
logged and the cause investigated fully. Where appropriate, remedial action will be
taken, and the complainant will be informed through the client of what action has been
taken.
