Construction Phase & Operation Phase Sample Clauses

Construction Phase & Operation Phase. 3.3.2.1 Noise impacts would be resulted from the proposed construction activities with the use of powered mechanical equipment (PME). The assessment results indicated that the unmitigated noise levels at the representative NSRs would be 55 – 96 dB(A). With the implementation of all practicable noise mitigation measures, including the use of quiet PME and deployment of construction noise barriers and portable noise enclosure, the predicted noise levels at all the representative NSRs would comply with the EIAO-TM noise criteria. Hence, no unacceptable noise impact arising from the construction of the Project is anticipated. The mitigated cumulative construction noise impact would exceed the criteria at five representative NSRs (four existing residential uses and one existing performing arts centre cum educational institution). Notwithstanding this, the exceedance would mainly be caused by a concurrent project and transient in nature. The Contractor would liaise closely with the affected NSRs and notify them before commencing the construction activities of concern and should strive to complete the works in the shortest time possible. In addition, to minimise nuisance to nearby educational institution and seafood restaurants, noisy construction works would not be carried out during the examination period of the educational institution and the peak business hours of the restaurant. Hence, adverse residual construction noise impact is not anticipated. 3.3.2.2 The Project is not a noise pollution source and therefore noise impact arising from the project during operation phase is not anticipated.
