• Monitor dust levels at site boundaries to confirm controls are effective.
• Notify the local community before particularly noisy or dusty demolition phases.
• Use enclosed crushers with water suppression for all on-site crushing operations.
• Wear RPE rated for silica, lead, and any other specific contaminants identified.
• Restrict demolition to the permitted working hours agreed with the local authority.
• Damp down rubble stockpiles and haul roads to prevent secondary dust generation.
