1.0 Introduction

1.1 GeneralAECOM Australia Pty Ltd (AECOM) was engaged by Ford Civil Contracting Pty Ltd (FCC) to preparethis Waste Management Plan (WMP) for the proposed remediation works due to be undertaken at theformer Newcastle Gasworks Site located at 1 Chatham Road, Hamilton North, NSW (herein referred toas the Site).

This WMP relates to the management of waste to be generated as part of remedial works at the Siteand should be read in conjunction with the Remedial Work Environmental Management Plan(RWEMP) (AECOM, 2019b).

The Site is identified as Lot 1 in Deposited Plan (DP) 79057 and lot 270 in DP812689 under the LocalGovernment Area (LGA) of Newcastle City Council and is zoned as IN2 Light Industrial. In order toallow potential future use of the Site, it must be made suitable for commercial/industrial use under theaforementioned current land use zoning.

1.2 Scope of Remedial WorksThe objective of the remedial works proposed is to address the nature of contamination and risk ofharm identified in the MO in a manner consistent with the guidelines made and/or approved unders.105 of the CLM Act. The scope of the remedial works will include:

· Removal of all vegetation and mulching for off-Site disposal

· Relocation of existing stockpiles within the area hydraulically downgradient of the proposedsubterranean barrier wall

· Demolition of the former office building located in the south western portion of the Site

· Excavation and demolition of all gasworks related infrastructure (above and below ground)

· Retention of demolished structures within the area hydraulically downgradient of the proposedsubterranean barrier wall

· Grading of the Site to achieve final landform design in accordance with the Remedial Action Plan(RAP)(JBS&G, 2017)

· Installation of subterranean Low Permeability Barrier Wall (LPBW)

· Design and installation of a Low Permeability Barrier Layer (LPBL) across the majority of the Site

· Design and installation of subsurface drainage infrastructure

· Sealing of the LPBL with a spray seal.

1.3 WMP ObjectivesThe overarching objective of the WMP is to develop a plan for the management of wastes on the Sitein accordance with the NSW Waste Avoidance and Resource Recovery Strategy 2007 (WARR). Thisinvolves managing waste in accordance with the waste hierarchy established under the WasteAvoidance and Resource Recovery Act 2001. Figure 1 below shows the waste hierarchy.



2

Figure 1 The Waste Hierarchy

The NSW WARR aims to maximise conservation of natural resources and to minimise environmentalharm from waste management and disposal of solid waste.

The specific objectives of the WMP are to:

· Avoid or reduce waste generation associated with remedial works

· Maximise reuse and recycling where waste generation cannot be avoided

· Where re-use or recycling on-Site is not feasible, off-Site recycling or disposal facilities should beused

· Ensure all waste disposal is undertaken lawfully pursuant to Section 143 of the Protection of theEnvironment Operations Act 1997 (POEO Act).

It is noted that the adopted remedial approach has taken the WARR into consideration as the majorityof the waste generated (i.e. soil, demolition waste, hardstand surfaces and asbestos) will be re-usedon–Site either as backfill for the subterranean barrier wall (no deleterious or grossly contaminatedmaterial; suitable soils only) or be contained beneath the Low Permeability Barrier Layer LPBL.

Retention of all currently stockpiled and site-won material is both central to the remediation approachand a contractual requirement. Off-site disposal of wastes or surplus materials will be considered as acontingency measure only, with prior approval required from Jemena.

Any materials proposed to be re-used in construction of the LPBW and LPBL will be subject toassessment by the Geotechnical Consultant (Douglas Partners) against the criteria presented in theInspection and Test Plan (ITP) for Construction (Douglas Partners, 2019). Assessment of the materialwill be undertaken following excavation and stockpiling with approval for use provided by Ramboll priorto re-use in construction of the LPBW and LPBL.

Findings of the geotechnical suitability assessment will be documented in a short factual memo toJemena and the Environmental (Validation) Consultant, Ramboll.

Materials will also be subject to assessment by Ramboll against the regulatory (and other site-specific,as required) environmental criteria specified in the Validation Sampling, Analysis and Quality Plan...Findings of the environmental assessment will be provided to Jemena via factual memo prior to re-useof the material on-site.

Both assessments will be considered hold points on material re-use within the remedial worksprogram. Geotechnical and environmental assessments are anticipated to occur over a three-weekperiod.

1.4 WMP ScopeTo achieve the aforementioned objectives, the WMP includes the following core elements:

· Procedures for the segregation of recyclable and recoverable wastes and any material fallingunder existing Resource Recovery Orders



3

· Procedures for the treatment, disposal and transport of materials to licensed off-Site facilities

· Procedures for re-use of material as backfill for the Site

· Procedures for clean fill importation

· Details on storage and management of waste generated as presented in Section 1.3 above

· Procedures for storage and management of general and recyclable waste from workers

· Procedures for classification of waste in accordance with the NSW Waste ClassificationGuidelines Part 1: Classifying Waste (NSW EPA 2014).



4

2.0 Waste ManagementAs mentioned in Section 1.3 above, materials generated as part of the remedial works will beconsolidated on-Site with off-site disposal of wastes at a licensed landfill not anticipated . The followingsections outline the proposed management strategies for the materials streams anticipated to begenerated.

2.1 Waste StreamsThe remediation aspects and types of material streams, which may be generated during the works,and their proposed management, are outlined in Table 1 below. Further explanation of the materials’management is provided in the sections that follow.Table 1 Anticipated Waste Streams and their Proposed Management

Stormwater Liquid On-Site reuse as per Section 2.8Note: all materials will be tracked using the Site Materials Tracking Register and tracking sheetsprovided in Appendix E of the RWP. Some materials classified as BRU1 and BRU2 may containgasworks-related contamination that, depending on final backfilling location, may have implications forvalidation of the site post-remediation. Material tracking sheets should be completed with sufficientdetail to provide confidence of the final location (e.g. via grid coordinate references) of these materialsonce backfilled onsite.

2.2 Materials for Beneficial Reuse on-Site (BRU1 and BRU2)As noted above, where possible material stream will be beneficially reused on-Site and wastesrequiring off-Site management will be avoided wherever possible. The materials streams that areproposed for beneficial reuse will be managed under two definitions:

· BRU1 – material that would be classified as General Solid Waste (GSW) if it were to beremoved from Site for lawful disposal, and requiring no special handling or placementmanagement

· BRU2 – material that would be classified as “Restricted Solid Waste” or “Special Waste” if itwere to be removed from Site for lawful disposal, but is to be carefully handled and placed behindthe LPBL to ensure no unacceptable risk is posed by these materials in the Sites’ futurecommercial/industrial uses.

These BRU materials are discussed further below.

2.3 Demolition WastesDemolition waste including bricks, concrete, asphalt, roof tiles, is primarily present at the Site in theform of existing infrastructure and stockpiles. The following steps will be implemented through themanagement of demolition wastes:



6

· Crushing using the on-Site crushing plant

· Oversize materials will be further broken down prior to crushing

· Relocation of processed crushed materials (BRU1) evenly across the Site on the eastern side ofthe subterranean wall

The processed crushed BRU1 will have a nominal size of less than 100mm particle size to meetgeotechnical suitability requirements.

In addition to the above, recyclable steel is present the form of pipes, redundant rail tracks and aboveground cable housing. As part of clearance activities all steel products will be segregated and loadedinto dedicated steel bins for recycling by licensed scrap metal recyclers.

Demolition of the existing building in the south of the Site (to be used as office and amenities duringremediation works) will be undertaken in accordance with a specific Building Demolition Works Plan.Works will be completed under the protocols outlined in the Occupational Health and HygieneManagement Plan (OHHMP) and Asbestos Removal Control Plan (ACRP) noting the presence ofhazardous materials including asbestos and lead paint within building materials. Hazardous materialsremoved from buildings during demolition will be tracked on the Site Materials Tracking Register toensure these materials do not become comingled with BRU2 materials.

2.4 Green WasteExisting vegetation comprises of trees and shrubs which will require removal prior earthworks starting.Shrubs and selected trees (including roots) will be cut at ground level and mulched on-Site to under50mm (nominal diameter) for off-Site disposal to an appropriately licensed recycling facility or re-usedin accordance with the Mulch Order (NSW EPA, 2016). Removal of mulch from Site will be undertakenregularly to prevent the risk of fire.

Clearance of vegetation will be undertaken as follows:

· Cutting of selected trees at ground level and excavation of root balls

· Mulching of trees/shrubs to under 50mm (nom. diameter) for off-Site disposal to an appropriatelylicensed recycling or landfill facility

· Segregation of topsoil from roots through controlled mechanical shaking

· Stockpiling of segregated roots

· Off-Site disposal of roots as green waste to an appropriately licensed recycling or landfill facility

· Complete waste tracking documentation in accordance with Section 3.0.

2.5 SoilsIn addition to existing stockpiles, a large volume of soil is anticipated to be generated throughout theremedial works program including:

· Cut/Fill balance to achieve desirable land form

· Excavation of subterranean walls

· Excavation of asbestos disposal pit

· Import of VENM/ENM or other material under an existing exemption.

Soil will be managed in accordance with procedures set out in Table 2 below.Table 2 Soil Management Procedures

WasteSource Destination Procedures

Stockpile On-SiteExisting soil stockpiles at the Site make up a volume ofapproximately 3,500m3 with classifications varying from GeneralSolid Waste to Hazardous Solid Waste including asbestos waste.



7

WasteSource Destination Procedures

Retaining of such material (as BRU1 or BRU2) will involve thefollowing steps:

· Excavation of a single on-Site disposal pit (with approximatedepth of 1m and volume of 2150m3) large enough toaccommodate the asbestos-impacted material to be segregatedfrom stockpiles (including an adequate contingency space).Refer to Section 4.6 of the RWP

· Relocation of excavated soil across the Site for filling purposes

· Relocation of existing stockpiles into the newly created pit

· The elevation and coordinates (all four corners) of the pit will berecorded by a registered surveyor for integration into the long-term environmental management plan (LTEMP).

Any building rubble identified within those stockpiles will besegregated and managed in accordance with procedures outlined inSection 3.2 below.

Cut/Fill andsubterraneanwallexcavation

On-SiteAll excess material generated as part of earthworks will be relocatedon the eastern side of the subterranean wall where it will remain forconsolidation below the low permeability barrier layer (LPBL).

Cut/Fill andsubterraneanwallexcavation

Off-Site All material generated as part of earthworks is proposed to beretained onsite.

Asbestosdisposal pitexcavation

On-Site All material generated as part of earthworks is proposed to beretained onsite.

Soil will be stockpiled and distributed beneath the LPBL during cutand fill preparation of the sub-LPBL surface.

ImportMaterials

On-Site Any imported material will be classified as VENM/ENM/recycled fines(as per relevant provisions of the POEO Act and/or applicableresource recovery exemptions), and the following steps will beimplemented:

· Supply of the relevant certificates/reports to the ValidationConsultant (Ramboll) for review prior to the material beingimported

· Ramboll to undertake their assessment on the materialproposed to be imported and confirm its suitability, inaccordance with Section 4.7 of the RWP and the ValidationSampling, Analysis and Quality Plan (VSAQP)

· Geotechnical Consultant (Douglas Partners) to undertakeassessment of the geotechnical properties of the proposedmaterial to be imported and confirm its suitability to Ramboll

· Once material has been assessed as suitable by Ramboll, it willbe permitted for import

· A dedicated ‘clean’ storage area will be prepared toaccommodate this material.

2.5.1 Cross ContaminationTemporary stockpiling of excavated and imported materials will be required throughout remediationworks. Stockpiled excavated material has the potential to be contaminated with hazardous gasworkswastes and asbestos containing materials which may contaminate imported “clean” materials if notstored correctly.

Contaminated soil may cross contaminate clean materials via migration as sediment in surface waterflow, due to poor equipment hygiene (e.g. use of contaminated trucks to transport clean material), ordue to incidental comingling with other materials (poor materials tracking). The following measures(consistent with the Excavation Management Plan (ExMP) (Appendix C of this RWP) must beemployed for to minimise the potential for exposure to or migration of contaminated soils:

· Label stockpiles with material type and contamination status (e.g. “clean”, “dirty”, “imported”)· Place stockpiles on hardstand surfaces or plastic construction sheeting· Place stockpiles away from drainage systems to minimise sediment transport· Smooth the stockpile to seal the surface, remove voids and minimise potential for erosion· Cover the stockpile with geotextile or plastic sheeting· Install silt fencing or construct a berm around the base of the pile to prevent transport of sediment,

if necessary· Maintain minimum setback distances from excavations (per ExMP) for proper placement of

excavated materials· Form stockpiles no higher than the height of the Site boundary fence· Where space allows, form stockpiles with a shallow grade to provide safe access for pedestrians

(e.g. to cover and uncover stockpiles).

2.6 Special Waste2.6.1 AsbestosIt is noted that asbestos is present as building material in some of the infrastructures to be demolishedand is also in some identified stockpiles. Furthermore, there is the potential for asbestos fragments tobe present on the Site surface. The following steps will be implemented to address this material:

· Segregation of asbestos containing material (ACM) from existing structures demolition andstockpiling in dedicated and controlled area

· Segregation of ACM from other areas of the Site where feasible

· Relocation of stockpiled ACM within a dedicated pit excavated in the southern portion of the Site,as discussed in Section 3.2.

Any activities likely to interact with asbestos will be undertaken under asbestos control and managedby FCC’s subcontracted Occupational Hygienist.

2.6.2 TyresWhilst generation of waste tyres is anticipated to be limited given the short duration of the project, anywaste tyres dug up during the excavation works shall be stored in a dedicated skip bin where it will bedisposed of off-Site as Special Waste at the end of the remedial works by FCC, subject to approval byJemena.

2.7 Hazardous WastesHazardous waste (excluding contaminated soil) such as batteries, radiator fluid, hydraulic fluid, spillclean-ups or other chemicals that may be generated through remedial activities will be carefully stored,and subsequently managed by an appropriately qualified and licensed contractors, in accordance withthe requirements of the Protection of the Environment Operations (Waste) Regulation 2014 (WasteRegulation).



9

2.8 Liquid WasteLiquid wastes anticipated to be generated as part of remedial works are limited to:

· Stormwater run-off from rain events

· Effluents from Site amenities

· Oils, grease fuel, chemicals and other fluids

· NAPLs

2.8.1 StormwaterStormwater will be collected via a perimeter swale drain and stored in excavated detention basin onthe southern and eastern portion of the Site. Following appropriate monitoring and treatment by FCC,the stormwater will be re-used onsite by mobile water carts for dust suppression. Detailed controlstrategies to manage liquid wastes and runoff are detailed in the RWEMP. Detention and treatment ofstormwater will be conducted in accordance with the Soil and Water Management Plan (SWMP)(Northrop, 2018), with general reference to the Managing Urban Stormwater: Soils and Construction“Blue Book” (Landcom 2004).

The expected permeability and validation requirements for the detention basin are provided in the ITPand summarised below.Table 3 Detention Basin Geotechnical requirements

Effluents produced from on-site amenities, including toilets, bathrooms and kitchens will either bedischarged to the local sewerage system, or where portable facilities are provided they will be ofsufficient capacity, and material will be collected and disposed of to an appropriately licensed facility.

Other liquid waste (e.g. oils, grease fuel, chemicals and other fluids) that are not able to be re-usedon-Site, shall be stored in appropriate containers in covered bunded areas until transported off-Site.Bunded areas will have the capacity to hold 110 per cent (%) of the liquid waste volume for bulkstorage or 120% of the volume of the largest container for smaller packaged storage.



10

2.8.2 NAPLsSome hydrocarbon impacts are anticipated to be encountered during cut and fill earthworks, howeverimpacts are anticipated to comprise hydrocarbon saturated soil media and not neat liquids.Notwithstanding, should neat quantities of non-aqueous phase liquids (NAPLs) be encountered duringearthworks, these will be managed as liquid wastes for the purposes of off-site disposal. Hydrocarbonsaturated soils will remain onsite for re-use beneath the LPBL and, dependent on contaminantconcentrations, subject to burial in a specific containment cell subject to a NSW EPA GeneralImmobilisation Approval (GIA) or Specific Immobilisation Approval (SIA).

No specific NAPL containment cell has been proposed prior to remediation works noting the alignmentof the LPBW and maximum cut and fill depths were designed to minimise disturbance of grosscontamination at the Site. The requirement for a GIA or SIA will be determined by FCC, Ramboll andJemena following assessment of the nature and extent of any unexpected NAPL finds.

2.9 Miscellaneous WasteGeneral waste requiring off-Site disposal through the remedial works are likely to be limited to wastegenerated by Site workers and other consumables packaging generated as part of remedial activities.Such waste will be stored in closable wheel mounted skip bins to reduce the potential for vermin. Skipbins will be placed at various locations at the Site and will be collected by a licensed waste contractorfor off-Site disposal as required.

In addition to the above, it is also anticipated that co-mingled recyclable waste such as plastic bottlesand other food packaging product will be generated throughout remedial activities. All recyclable wastewill be stored in dedicated closable wheel mounted skip bins to reduce the potential for vermin and/orfire. Skip bins will be placed at various locations at the Site and will be collected by a licensed wastecontractor for off-Site recycling as required.

2.9.1 PPE WasteWorkers performing day to day remedial work activities will be required to wear specific PPE tomitigate exposure to asbestos and other gasworks-derived contaminants in soil and groundwater.Specific PPE requirements are outlined in the OHHMP, ARCP and task-specific SWMS. PPE wastelikely to be generated during remedial works includes (but is not limited to):

· Disposable coveralls

· Disposable dust masks

· Disposable nitrile gloves

· Wiping rags used to clean non-disposable PPE.

These wastes will be collected in dedicated, disposable, heavy duty clear plastic bags. The bags willbe sealed after filling and marked “Caution – Asbestos. Do not open or damage bag. Do not inhaledust”. Once collected, PPE waste bags will be stored in a skip in a dedicated location onsite (typicallyadjacent to the personnel decontamination station, dependent on site set-up). The waste will bedisposed offsite in accordance with tracking procedures outlined in Table 4.



11

3.0 Waste Tracking

3.1 On-Site ReuseWaste material generated during cut/fill activities (including existing stockpiles) and excavation of thesubterranean wall will be retained on-Site as per the RAP with material movement documented usingthe Materials Tracking Forms. These Form provide details on volume of material generated from aspecific location, its classification (where required) and final destination within the Site or off-Site. TheMaterials Tracking Forms are provided in Appendix F of the RWP.

3.2 Off-Site DisposalConsistent with the Protection of the Environment Operations (Waste) Regulation 2014, the followingwastes are required to be tracked within NSW if disposed of off-Site:

· Hazardous Wastes as defined in Table 3: Hazardous characteristics and dangerous goodproperties of the ‘Waste that needs to be tracked’ (NSW EPA, 2018)

· Liquid Waste (Category 1 Trackable waste)

· More than 100 kilograms of actual asbestos waste or more than 10 square meters of asbestossheeting in any single load (not applicable to asbestos impacted soil)

· More than 200kg of waste tyres, or 20 tyres (whichever is heavier)

· Waste oil/water, hydrocarbon/water mixtures or emulsions

· Wastes listed in Table 1: Waste descriptions and codes for waste that must be tracked whentransported within NSW or interstate of the ‘Waste that needs to be tracked’ (NSW EPA, 2018).

3.3 Waste Tracking ComplianceWastes will be tracked throughout remediation works using the Site Materials Tracking Register to beestablished by FCC using the materials tracking forms provided in Appendix F of the RWP. Wastedockets received from the disposal facility must also be obtained and kept on record with the MaterialsTracking Register. Updating of the Materials Tracking Register will be responsibility of the FCC ProjectEngineer, with support from the FCC Site Manager.

The tracking of waste will be subject to monthly compliance audit by the FCC Project Manager (ordelegate) who will:

· Verify the completeness of waste tracking information entered into the Materials Tracking Register

· Verify all wastes disposed offsite have been assigned the correct waste classification inaccordance with the NSW EPA (2014) Waste Classification Guidelines

· Verify the volume of waste disposed offsite matches the volumes stated on disposal dockets

· Verify the facility receiving the waste is appropriately licensed to accept the class of waste beingreceived

· Identify any non-conformances against regulatory waste tracking requirements to the FCC SiteManager and Jemena

· Track non-conformances in accordance with the incident reporting framework provided in Section4 of the Remediation Works Contingency Management Plan (Appendix E of the RWP).
