Inwater Noise Sample Clauses

Inwater Noise. In-water noise from construction can result from dredging, blasting, fill placement, pile driving, and waterborne vessel movements. Construction noise generated in assembly of bridge or ferry landing structures above the water can be transmitted into the water through steel or concrete structures. Inwater blasting might be necessary to prepare the foundations for inwater piers and would be needed under Alternative F3 to improve the navigation conditions in the channel west of Xxxxxxx Island. Noise levels associated with pile removal, driving, and pre-drilling, as well as with other aspects of the proposed action, might temporarily be elevated above existing background noise levels. Xxxxx et al. (1996) investigated the impacts of driving large concrete piles on juvenile pink and chum salmon behavior and distribution in Everett Harbor, Washington. The authors reported that there might be changes in general behavior and school size, and that fish appeared to be driven toward the acoustically isolated side of the site during pile driving. However, the prevalence of fish schools did not change substantially with or without pile driving, and schools were often observed about the pile-driving rigs themselves. No impacts on feeding were reported. The study concluded that any effects of concrete pile-driving noise on juvenile salmonid fitness would be very difficult to measure quantitatively. More recent experience in Puget Sound and elsewhere, however, has documented more severe effects from use of an impact hammer to drive large diameter, hollow steel piles such as those that will be required for this project (although any pile driving for this project is anticipated to use a vibratory hammer, instead of an impact hammer). Effects are believed to be exacerbated when driving piles into hard substrates (e.g., gravel, cobble) when compared with effects while driving into softer sands or mud. Impact driving of 24-inch steel piles in late 2002 at a ferry terminal in Puget Sound resulted in mortality of a number of marine perch (Embiotocidae), and similar or larger piles, driven by impact hammer at the Port of Seattle, resulted in mortality of Pacific xxxxxxx (X. Xxxxxx, WDFW, personal communications). However, impact driving of 24-inch piles at the Mukilteo, Washington, ferry dock in early 2003 did not result in documented fish kills; a bubble curtain was deployed at Mukilteo and shown to substantially reduce measured water-borne sound pressures (X. Xxxxxxxx, Pentec, ...

  • Dewatering (a) Where the whole of a site is so affected by surface water following a period of rain that all productive work is suspended by agreement of the Parties, then dewatering shall proceed as above with Employees so engaged being paid at penalty rates as is the case for safety rectification work. This work is typically performed by Employees engaged within CW1, CW2 or CW3 classifications. When other Employees are undertaking productive work in an area or areas not so affected then dewatering will only attract single time rates. (b) Where a part of a site is affected by surface water following a period of rain, thus rendering some areas unsafe for productive work, consistent with the Employer’s obligations under the OH&S Act, appropriate Employees shall assist in the tidying up of their own work site or area if it is so affected. Where required, appropriate Employees will be provided with the appropriate PPE. Such work to be paid at single time rates. Productive work will continue in areas not so affected. (c) To avoid any confusion any ‘dewatering’ time which prevents an Employee from being engaged in their normal productive work is not included in any calculation for the purposes of determining whether an Employee is entitled to go home due to wet weather (refer clauses 32.4 and 32.5)
