Landscape and visual site audit was carried out on a monthly basis to monitor
environmental issues on the construction sites to ensure that all mitigation
measures were implemented timely and properly.
The findings in August 2006 were:
·
The maximum stockpiling height at the Fill Bank was limited to a maximum
of +40 mPD;
·
The Contractor hydroseeded the outer slopes of the Fill Bank as far as
practicable;
·
The Contractor removed the stockpile of public fill in a sequence to
allow the outer hydroseeded to be removed later than other portions as far as
practicable;
·
Casuarina equisetifolia were planted as buffer tree along the northern perimeter of the Site
The height of Casuarina equisetifolia was maintained at least 3000mm
above soil level; and
·
Lighting was set to minimise nighttime glare.
