4.2 DESCRIPTION
Environmental inspections, monitoring and measurement activities constitute the main tools to
ensure that environmental management is fully accomplished during the construction phase.
Environmental performance must be assessed as per project expectations and requirements
established in the “Environmental Management Plan” (08577-00-YTC-SNS-TRC-032). Therefore,
all environmental procedures involved in Site Environmental Management System are part of this
document.
The assessment and understanding of environmental data collected during monitoring and
measurement processes will give an early indication for the environmental control measures or
practices needed to achieve acceptable standards.
5 METHODOLOGY
Methodology to define Environmental Monitoring and Measurement Plan followed Partnership
recommendation covered by:
 PHE-GT-0015 Environmental Control Plan.
 PHE-GF-0019 Environmental Inspection Checklist_(137022528)

MEASUREMENT PLAN
5.1 ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING AND MEASUREMENT

Environmental aspects with the potential to be affected by construction activities shall be studied and
monitored during the project. Control is undertaken through the following actions:
 Environmental inspections at worksite,
 Environmental records,
 HSE monthly reports,
 HSE audits.
Contractor and its Subcontractors shall monitor the effectiveness of their works affecting the
environment and take corrective and / or preventive actions, if necessary. This includes the control
of quantitative aspects associated to the environmental parameters:
 Control areas,
 Specific resources needed,
 Limits to accomplish,
 Measurement conditions.
Site HSE Manager shall organize measurement activities taking into account: operational control
and environmental legal and other relevant requirements. Contractor and Subcontractors shall also
comply with any additional monitoring requirements specified by the Regulatory Authority.
During the execution of the construction phase of the project, monitoring activities might be adjusted
in order to adapt monitoring requirements with current Project situation. Environmental measurement
activities will be specified according to site requirements.

These activities are specified in Attachment 1 “Control of Environmental Management System’s
activities”.
5.3 ENVIRONMENTAL RECORDS

The main objective of the environmental records prepared on site is to register information regarding
the control of environmental issues related to the Site Environmental Management System. The
following requirements shall be followed as minimum:
 Site HSE Manager and Subcontractors Site HSE Representative(s) shall create and maintain
updated all records.
 Records shall be kept on site till the end of the Project, unless any legal requirement specifies a
different timing.
 Those records shall be legible, identifiable and traceable to the activity involved. They must be
filed and maintained so that they are protected against any damage, deterioration or loss.
Attachment 2 “Environmental Records” shows the minimum records expected to be produced and
managed during construction phase and is aligned with contents covered y PHE-GF-0019
Environmental Inspection Checklist_(137022528).
If any new requirement is identified during the execution of the construction phase which involve any
monitoring or measurement activity, new records will be established and maintained.
