Environmental Incident Categories descriptions and examples: Minor Where the environmental impact is limited and is confined within the work site. Environmental impacts are readily addressed through clean up or changes to work practices. Breach of a project or contract EMP. NB: Minor incidents that have a high frequency of recurrence are indicative of underlying issues associated with work practices. This in turn increases the potential for these minor incidents developing into significant incidents. Examples: Uncontained hydrocarbon spillage less than 200 L Dust suppression spray failure without causing off site impact. Erosion controls not in place but no environmental factors on site for an event to occur. Exclusion zones not marked. Major Incident involving offsite environmental impacts that requires significant resources to address and if left untreated could accumulate to a significant impact. Non-compliance with statutory requirements or environmental criteria requiring reporting to authorities. Examples: Clearing outside of approved area less than 100m square. Over spray of herbicides damaging nearby crops or native vegetation. Dust monitoring results exceed statutory criteria. Failure to comply with environmental protection requirements. Detectable sediment load within waterways downstream of construction. Unauthorised clearing of rare flora. Significant Any onsite or offsite environmental incident resulting in significant long term environmental harm. An incident resulting in prosecution under environmental law. Non-conformance with contractors EMP occurring within the worksite where the environmental impact is significant and has the potential for an offsite environmental impact. Examples: Unauthorised clearing of a large area of vegetation greater than 100m square. Actual pollution of waterways e.g. By onsite or offsite fuel spills or excavation of works. Significant impact detected on threatened flora and fauna.
