Incident and Emergency Response Plan
Albion Park Rail bypass (Stage 2 – Princes Motorway between Yallah and Oak Flats)
1. Introduction
This Incident and Emergency Response Plan (IERP) applies to any incident or emergency occurring on Albion Park Rail bypass (Stage 2 – Princes Motorway between Yallah and Oak Flats) (the Project), or involving Fulton Hogan’s personnel away from their regular place of work but while on company business.
This IERP shall be used in conjunction with the Workplace Health and Safety Management Plan (WHSMP), Construction Environmental Management Plan (CEMP) and the relevant sub-plans, Traffic and Transport Management Sub-plan and Aviation Method of Working Plan. Together these documents outline the mandatory requirements for preparing for, responding to and recovering from any safety or environmental incidents or emergencies, including where assistance from local emergency services is required.
This IERP shall also be used in conjunction with Fulton Hogan’s Incident Investigation, Reporting and Notification procedure, which provides umbrella guidance on corporate requirements for notification, recording, investigation and reporting of all incidents, including significant safety and environmental incidents.
This IERP has also been developed to ensure compliance with obligations under the State Disaster Plan (DISPLAN) and will work with Illawarra Emergency Management District.
These DISPLANs provides framework for escalating emergency response to an incident, where the relevant Emergency Services Incident Controller (in consultation with the local Emergency Management Committee) has determined that resources of the local emergency service provider are insufficient to deal with the threat.
This IERP has also been developed to ensure compliance with the requirements of Roads and Maritime Environmental Incident Classification and Reporting Procedure for the reporting of environmental incidents as detailed in Section 4.3 of this Plan.
1.1. Purpose and scope
This IERP describes the strategy for preparing, responding to and recovering from any safety or environmental incident during construction of the Project. It also provides an integrated approach to management of both environmental and safety incidents where the assistance of external emergency response agencies is required.
This IERP does not address the broader company response to critical incidents or crises. Crises are defined as events or developments, real or perceived, which threaten the viability of the company and have the potential to threaten the safety or wellbeing of workers and others, the environment, or the integrity, performance, reputation of the company. Where such incidents stem from project-based incidents or emergencies, they shall be managed in accordance with this Plan, The Project Management Plan (PMP) and the requirements of the Crisis Management Procedure.
1.2. Project description
The project is known as the Albion Park Rail bypass (Stage 2 – Princes Motorway between Yallah and Oak Flats). The project would provide motorists with a more consistent travel experience between Sydney, Wollongong and the NSW South Coast. It would increase the capacity of the road network to cope with the additional traffic generated by current and future residential development in the area.
A detailed description of the Project is provided in the PMP.

3.5. Testing - desktop simulations/exercises/drills
The IERP, including all requirements of the PIRMP (refer Appendix D), shall be tested to ensure that the information is accurate and up to date, and that the IERP is capable of being implemented in a workable and effective manner.
Testing will be undertaken by way of:
Desktop simulations, and/or
Practical exercises/ drills.
For desktop simulations, the Environmental Manager (or delegate) shall organise relevant environmental desktop exercises to stimulate discussion of issues and review various aspects of the IERP.
Each desktop simulation shall be recorded. The record shall capture information, including (but not limited to) the:
Discussion items
Date of the desktop simulation
Name of the staff members who attended the desktop simulation
Attendance record.
For practical exercises/drills, the Safety Manager, in consultation with the EPC, shall ensure that a Drill Schedule is developed, maintained and adhered to at each site on the project. The Drill Schedule includes the dates on which the various hazards/risks identified in the IERP are scheduled to be tested, and when they have been tested.
The Safety Manager, in consultation with the EPC, shall arrange for practical exercises/ drills for both workers and subcontractors.
Following each practical exercise/ drill, the Safety Manager shall ensure that all persons observing and or evaluating drills complete an Incident and Emergency Response Drill Record. This Record captures a suite of information, including (but not limited to) the:
The scope of the drill
Date of the drill
Name of the staff members who conducted the drill
Name of the staff member who completed the drill record
Attendance record.
Desktop simulations or practical exercises/ drills shall be carried out:
Routinely at least once every 12 months
Within one (1) month of any pollution incident occurring. In the light of that incident, the intent is to assess whether the requirements of the PIRMP included in this IERP (refer Appendix D) are accurate and up to date, and the plan is still capable of being implemented in a workable and effective manner.
3.6. Incident (vehicle/public/environmental – non-work related)
Should there be an event requiring initial management by the project Emergency Response Team or interaction with the project or requiring initial support from the project, (e.g.- dozer or water cart) to assist with initial response to an incident, the relevant Emergency Flowcharts listed in table 3 and 4 and the Traffic Incident Response Plan will be utilised in the response and in conjunction with direction from any Emergency Service. (i.e.- police, SES, Fire etc).

4. Pollution incident response management
The purpose of this section is to address the requirements of the Protection of the Environment Operations Act 1997 (POEO Act) and Protection of the Environment Operations (General) Regulation 2009 (POEO (G) Regulation) not otherwise specifically addressed in this IERP.
4.1. Pollution incident response management plan legislative requirements
The specific legislative requirements for a Pollution Incident Response Management Plan (PIRMP) are set out in Part 5.7A of the POEO Act and Part 3A of the POEO (G) Regulation. These requirements and a cross reference are included in Appendix D to ‘readily identify’ where each requirement is met in this IERP, or otherwise.
4.2. Description and likelihood of hazards
The main hazards and risks to human health and the environment associated with project activities have been identified by completing an Environmental Incidents and Emergencies Risk Assessment. The risk assessment was undertaken in a workshop involving key project personnel and included consideration of the following:
Consequence and likelihood of hazards and risks to human health and the environment occurring;
Proximity to sensitive environment, (i.e. ‘no-go’ zones, or sensitive receivers, such as schools, retirement homes and farms).
Based on the pre-control hazard risk rating, the following hazards to human health and the environment were identified as ‘High’ risk:
Severe weather events
Illegal waste dumping (by others)
Vehicle collision
Chemical spill in waterway (onsite and offsite impact)
Primer/ primer-binder washed off pavement
Unauthorised washout of concrete trucks and pumps
Chemical spill on land (onsite impact)
Of these, the following hazards relate directly to pollution incidents:
Illegal waste dumping (by others)
Chemical spill in waterway (onsite and offsite impact)
Primer/ primer-binder washed off pavement
Unauthorised washout of concrete trucks and pumps
Chemical spill on land (onsite impact)
The results of the risk assessment are included in Appendix E of this IERP.
Refer to Section 4.4 for the pre-emptive actions (controls) to be taken to minimise or prevent any risk of harm to human health or the environment.
4.3. Pollution incident notification protocol
All pollution incidents or any other environmental incidents must be reported in accordance with the Pollution (or other Environmental) Incident Notification Protocol included in Appendix F of this Plan.

4.7. Communicating with neighbours and local community
Should a pollution incident occur that threatens to cause harm to human health or the environment, the following notification protocol will be followed:
Environmental and engineering staff in consultation with Community Liaison team will determine the community notification catchment depending on the nature of each incident and input from authorities.
Early warnings and regular updates ongoing as required will be issued by phone calls, web updates and door knocking to affected residents/receivers.
Notifications to affected residents will include details of incident, time frame of the impact and the mitigation measures put in place.
Instructions to residents to minimise health impact (i.e. for airborne chemicals residents will be advised to close windows and doors, to take extra care if they have respiratory issues, keep children inside and protect animals, where possible).
Sensitive receivers will receive priority notification of pollution incidents.
4.8. Minimising harm to persons on premises
Should a pollution incident occur that threatens to cause harm to persons on the premises this Plan will be activated.
4.9. Maps
Clause 98C (1) (k) of the POEO (G) Regulation, requires a detailed set of maps showing the following information:
The location of the premises to which the EPL relates
The surrounding area that is likely to be affected by a pollution incident
The location of potential pollutants on the premises
The location of any stormwater drains on the premises.
With the exception of the location of stormwater drains, all required information is shown on the Sensitive Area Plans included in Appendix A6 of the CEMP.
The location of stormwater drains will be shown on the most current set of Drainage Drawings, available on the Fulton Hogan server.
Since the Sensitive Area Plans and Drainage Drawings are subject to frequent change throughout construction, the reader is asked to refer directly to the respective document (as mentioned above) to ensure its currency, rather than appending it separately to this IERP.
