ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION MEASURES ON NEW ZEALAND STATE HIGHWAY ROADING PROJECTS: VOLUME 2: KEY ISSUES AND OBSERVATIONS FROM THE STUDY

The results of the project are presented as two reports. The investigation takes a retrospective look at these projects to find out (using site visits, file searches and interviews with original participants) how the protection measures performed. Volume I is presented in the form of a reference guide to past practice in thc management of environmental impacts of roading and contains sections dealing with such issues as sediment control, noise, effects on fish, weed control, landscaping, etc. Each section contains examples of environmental protection measures that have previously been used on roading projects and a discussion on any feedback or findings on experiences in the implementation of these controls. Volume 2 contains a summary of key issues and observations from the study. This volume provides a focus for areas where further research may be needed and where further improvement could potentially be made to the way that the environmental management of roading projects is currently conducted.
