(i) in relation to site fencing / site security measures;
(ii) to provide details of traffic routes and points of access/egress to be used by construction vehicles and carting lorries;
(iii) to set points of liaison for site monitoring;
(iv) to minimise the impact of noise on dwellings (including residential care establishments), offices, schools, health facilities or any other premises likely to be adversely affected by construction and demolition activities in respect of that area, such measures being based on quantified existing background noise levels and predicted noise levels, and addressing internal/external noise levels at those premises;
(v) to suppress dust (including the provision of a monitoring scheme near to sensitive properties);
(vi) in respect of the siting and appearance of works compounds;
(vii) to ensure through the use of wheel cleaning facilities and street cleansing that the public highway is kept free from dirt and debris generated by the development;
(viii) to control pumped discharge into the sewer system or any watercourses arising in respect of construction;
(xi) in respect of directional and other such signage; and
(xii) to ensure the protection of or mitigation of impacts upon ecological resources and where relevant to carry out and pay due regard to a walkover resurvey for the presence of any protected species (Great Crested Newts, reptiles, bats, badgers and owls) within two weeks of the commencement of works on site.
