Figure 2: Waihi North Utility Corridor (Source: BECA). This SSESCP provides design erosion and sediment control (ESC) measures indicating how the site will manage runoff during these construction activities. This document should be read in conjunction with the Assessment of Environmental Effects prepared by Mitchell Daysh and specialist reports prepared by others. The Willows Road establishment works comprise the following four components: Section 1 – Surface Facilities Area. Section 2 – Mine Access Road and Willows Rock Stack. Section 3 – Magazine Storage Area, access road and topsoil stockpile. Section 4 – Utility corridor This SSESCP has been prepared in accordance with Waikato Regional Council Technical Report No. 2009/02 Erosion and Sediment Control Guidelines for Soil Disturbing Activities, January 2009 (TR2009/02) and addresses the following earthwork activities: • Establishment of the erosion and sediment controls; • General earthworks, including stockpiling, road formation, establishment of the Willows Rock Stack, trenching; and • Final landscaping and stabilisation. The ESC measures will be used during the ‘enabling works’ phase which does not include mining or management of potentially acid forming (PAF) material. Once mining activities occur contact water will be pumped to the Water Treatment Facility.
