No Impact Environmental safeguard Responsibility Timing Aboriginal heritage 68 Unexpected Aboriginal heritage discovery across the proposal footprint. All works would be stopped within 10 metres of an unexpected find discovery and subsequently implement the provisions of the Standard Management Procedure: Unexpected Archaeological Finds (Roads and Maritime, 2012). This would include: Construction contractor Construction Onsite specialist supervision to inform the Roads and Maritime Heritage Officer/Environment Officer Recording the location and context of any historic heritage. 69 Unexpected Aboriginal heritage discovery across the proposal footprint. An Aboriginal heritage impact permit (AHIP) would be obtained prior to restarting works in the event of discovering an unexpected find: Roads and Maritime Construction Have a qualified heritage specialist prepare a cultural heritage application report (CHAR) that would support an application for the permit Consult with the local Aboriginal land council in preparing the CHAR Obtain the permit from the Heritage Council of NSW. This application would be accompanied by a prepared by a heritage specialist. 70 Additional ancillary facilities (including stockpile site, construction compounds and laydown areas). Following consultation Environment Branch, Roads and Maritime (Sydney Region) would carry out stage 1 of the PACHCI process in the event that the detailed design identifies the requirement for any modification to the proposal, including the requirement to establish alternative construction compounds/laydown areas. Roads and Maritime Detailed design Air quality 71 Air quality emissions and dust propagation across the proposal footprint. An air quality management plan (AQMP) would form a sub-plan of the CEMP. As a minimum, the plan would: Map sensitive receiver locations Construction contractor Construction Identify potential dust generating activities Provide for the monitoring the weather conditions Sydney City Centre Capacity Improvement 455 Review of Environmental Factors
