Potential Impacts

Limit possible entrance to construction site (or use construction sign)
- To prevent students or unauthorized personnel enter high risk construction area
Prepare emergency program in case of accident happening

A excavator, equipped with an engine(115 hp@ 2400 rpm) had a overall noise level of 80.5 dB at 50 feet.
- Solution: with improved exhaust and intake muffling, and three sound panels around the engine, the overall level was reduced to 71. 5 dB.
Temporary barriers/enclosures (e.g. plywood with sound absorbing materials) can be built around noisy equipment.
- These barriers can significantly reduce noise levels and are relatively inexpensive.

The most used alternative, due to its low cost of implementation and excellent results. Water should be applied at least three times a day or more, depending on the atmospheric conditions.
- A water tanker is driven on-site spraying water over the affected areas preventing dust from airborne.
Provide effective dust screens, sheeting or netting to keep tiny particles of dust and sand from the construction site
- To protect the school community from air pollution

For Traffic control, we would need two construction workers to control the traffic near the construction site
Use of traffic sign to redirect traffic to different route
