project construction.
SCOPE
As work progresses, this plan shall be amended as necessary and further developed. And this plan
will incorporate the conditions and mitigation measures contained in the final Environmental Impact
Assessment Report.
During the construction period, appropriate measures for environmental conservation and protection
shall be continuously and strictly taken. All measures shall be in accordance with the contract
specification and current applicable laws and regulations. Some important items that shall be considered in
order to minimize the environmental impacts are as follows, but not limited to:
Dust control
Noise control
The application of the best petroleum industry loss control practices minimizes risk to personnel
and property. The Contractor shall develop thorough understanding of Building and Other Construction
Workers (Regulation of Employment and Conditions of Service) Act 1996, Central Rules 1998, Building
and Other Construction Workers Welfare Cess Act, 1996 and Central Rules, 1998, not only to satisfy the
Inspectors perspective but the use of legislation as the strong tool for effective EHS management at
installation worksites. The Contractor is strongly advised to practice the principle of voluntary
compliance. In addition, the installation works shall be undertaken in accordance with all applicable
legislation and Indian statutory requirements listed below but not limiting to:
TEL shall take appropriate measures to protect workers from high speed winds (referred to in the
Beaufort Wind Force Scale measured by the Anemometer), solar radiations, poisonous gases, dust, etc.
by ensuring proper usage of PPEs like Sun glasses, Sun screen lotions, respirators, dust masks, etc. and
rearranging/ planning the construction activities to suit the weather conditions.
Each facility or site is susceptible to natural disasters such as high speed winds. The impact of
natural disasters to cause other related process disasters should be recognized in the planning stage.
Historical data on disasters at similar facilities or sites coupled with weather data can help in predicting
the frequency of natural disasters for the area. Except during emergency restoration procedures, erection
and any other work on structures shall be discontinued in the event of high wind or other adverse weather
conditions which would make the work hazardous. The affect of adverse weather conditions like rainy or
windy day should be anticipated and suitable precaution be taken.
On rainy and windy days, slipping and flying off sheets respectively would be the hazards and
hence working on top of a fragile roof shall be avoided during such situations. During storms or high
winds, workers shall not be working on a roof or scaffold that is exposed to the weather. Any
construction material such as planks that is likely to be displaced / flown off during heavy winds shall be
fastened using guy ropes tied to a rigid structure. All walls shall be left in a stable condition at the end of
each shift by bracing support jacks, timbers and/or guy-wired, taking wind force and storm conditions
into consideration. For temporary towers, the strength of the guy wires or of the anchorage used shall be
calculated, having due regard to the horizontal wind forces and other known forces which may be applied
to the tower. Reinforcing steel for walls, piers, columns, and similar vertical form work structures shall
be guyed and supported to prevent collapse and to guard against possible wind pressures.
All vehicles with cabs shall be equipped with windshields and powered wipers. Cracked or
broken windshields or windows shall be replaced. All cab glass shall be safety glass or equivalent. The
wind direction shall be checked by looking at the windsock and the workers shall be trained to work with
their back to the wind. For tower cranes, when wind velocities are above 32 km/h (20 mph), the rated
load and boom lengths shall be reduced according to manufacturer specifications. Wind forces are greater
at height by as much as 35% or more. All lifts above ground level, must account for wind force, i.e., side
loads, down drafts, etc. as applied to the load and boom. Crane booms, bulldozer blades, and front end
loader buckets on all construction equipment should be lowered when the equipment is left overnight.
For a crane boom where this is not possible, the boom shall be locked in such a manner that it cannot be
dropped or blown over by the wind. Cranes and other equipment that are likely to imbalance during high
speed winds shall be secured and the surrounding area shall be barricaded for strict prohibition of entry
by workmen.
