5.8.2. Potential impacts and mitigation measuresDescribe the impacts of noise and vibration generated during the construction andoperation stages of the project, with particular attention given to operational rail noiseimpacts to local residential areas. Noise and vibration impact analysis should include:• the levels of noise and vibration generated, including noise contours, assessedagainst current typical background levels, using modelling where appropriate• cumulative contribution of noise and vibration generated during the construction andoperation stages of the project, with regard to current typical background levels• impact of noise, including low frequency noise (noise with components below200 Hz) and vibration at all potentially sensitive receivers compared with theperformance indicators and standards nominated above• impact on terrestrial, avian and aquatic fauna• proposals to minimise or eliminate these effects, including details of any screening,lining, enclosing or bunding of facilities, or timing schedules for construction andoperations that would minimise environmental harm and environmental nuisancefrom noise and vibration• options for sensitive receivers that are otherwise unable to achieve a satisfactoryinternal noise level for the preservation of health and wellbeing as identified withinthe EPP (Noise).Night-time worksProvide details of any night-time work that may be undertaken. Specifically include:• the reasons why night-time work may be undertaken (e.g. to avoid peak trafficperiods, or to undertake work in a rail corridor)• the likely duration of work• the proposed hours of the work• the nature of the work to be undertaken• the likely impact on residents and the associated mitigation measures to beundertaken by the proponent• the methods that will be used to communicate with affected residents.5.9. Waste5.9.1. Waste generationIdentify and describe all sources, likely volumes and quality (where applicable) of wasteassociated with construction, operation and decommissioning of all aspects of theproject. Refer to the Waste Reduction and Recycling Act 2011 (Qld). Describe:• waste generated by delivery of material to site(s)• all chemical and mechanical processes conducted on the construction sites thatproduce waste• the amount and characteristics of solid and liquid waste produced on site by theproject- 50 - Contents of the EISDudgeon Point Coal Terminals ProjectTerms of reference for an environmental impact statement
