| Impacts | Proposed Mitigation Measures |
|---|---|
| Air Pollution | • Regular sprinkling of water on work areas and access roads to prevent fugitive dust violation. • Careful screening of construction site to contain and arrest construction-related dust. • Regular and prompt maintenance of construction machinery and equipment to minimize the generation of hazardous gases. • Use environmentally friendly fuels such as low-sulfur diesel. • Restricting heights from which materials are to be dropped, as far as practicable to minimize the fugitive dust arising from unloading/loading. • Provide personal protective equipment (PPE) such as nose masks, goggles. to the workers in dusty areas within the site. • Scaffold the site. |
| Noise pollution | • Ensure construction works are carried out only during the daytime i.e. from 0800hrs to 1700 hrs. • Ensure that all workers are provided with and wear PPE at all times. • Ensure the use of suppressors or noise shields on noisy machinery and equipment. • Ensure regular and prompt maintenance of the machinery and equipment to suppress frictional noise. • Operate noisy machinery only when necessary and switch them off when not in use. • Drivers to avoid unnecessary hooting and honing. |
| Solid and liquid waste | • Direct all liquid waste to the sewerage system. • Engage services of a registered NEMA waste. handler to dispose of the waste regularly at approved disposal points. • Segregate waste at the site, recyclable/reusable materials, and hazardous waste for appropriate disposal. • Sensitize workers on the reuse of materials where feasible. |
| Increased water demand | • Drill a borehole to supply water for the development in both construction and occupation phase. • The contractor should use water bowsers and tankers to bring in water for construction activities such as during periods of high-water demand. • Install water conserving taps that turn-off automatically when water is not in use. • Encourage water reuse/recycling during construction and occupation phases. • Roof catchments of building should be provided with rainwater harvesting systems (gutters, down pipes and water storage facilities) to enhance collection and storage of the resulting run-off. Such water can be used in watering flower gardens, general cleaning etc. • Provide notices and information signs to sensitize on means and needs to conserve water resource for instance Keep/Leave the Tap Closed. |
| Traffic congestion | • Employ traffic marshals to control traffic in and out of the site. • Ferry building materials during off-peak hours. • Provide billboards at the site/entrance to notify. motorists and the general public about the proposed development. • Enforce speed limits for construction vehicles, especially along the roads leading to the site. • Employ well-trained and experienced drivers. • Ensure that the vehicles comply with axle load limits. • Implement recommendations of the TIA report. |
| Health and safety of workers | • Ensure construction works are limited to daytime only. • Provide PPEs to the workers and ensure that they wear them at all times. • All workers shall be sensitized before construction begins on how to control accidents related to construction. • Keep a record of the public emergency service telephone numbers including Police, Fire brigade, and Ambulance at strategic points. • Provide first aid kits at strategic places on the site • Prepare a comprehensive contingency plan before construction begins on accident response. |
| Fire | • Provide firefighting equipment at strategic points within the site. • Ensure regular maintenance of firefighting equipment. • Sensitize the workers on fire risks and train them on first aid skills. • Prepare an effective emergency response plan. • Provide emergency numbers at strategic points within the site. • Use of signage at strategic places within the site such as “No smoking signs”. |
