2 Key Matters Discussed and Presented Meeting Notes WELCOME AND INTRODUCTIONS 1. Welcome and introduction by Independent Chair (IC) 2. Apologies noted ACTIONS ARISING FROM PREVIOUS MEETING 1. Approval pathways for land use differ depending on whether the land is owned by the local council, Roads and Maritime Services (RMS)or privately owned. An environmental assessment will be undertaken for each of the final sites proposed for use. The assessment includes determining the appropriate planning approval pathway. Local councils have a number of different approval pathways including complying and exempt development (under State environmental planning policies) and development application processes In addition to the relevant planning approvals, lease agreements would also need to be initiated to secure land. Prior to the next AQCCC meeting, the New M5 project team will continue investigations on shortlisted sites and determine the appropriate planning approval pathway. 2. Please see table at the end of the meeting notes FINALISE NEW M5 AQCCC TERMS OF REFERENCE 1. No Questions, comments or proposed amendments to the Terms of Reference circulated following Meeting 1 of the AQCCC. i. Terms of Reference will be finalised and published on the WestConnex website. OVERVIEW OF AIR QUALITY MODELLING INFORMING LOCATIONS FOR MONITORING STATIONS 2. A shortlist of potential locations for the New M5 air quality monitoring stations was provided to the New M5 AQCCC to consider prior to the meeting. New M5 Asset Trustee Community Engagement Manager explained the purpose of this meeting is to seek the New M5 AQCCC s consideration on whether any of the shortlisted locations should be ruled out or any additional information that should be considered regarding these sites. Any locations not ruled out would be considered potentially eligible and further investigations would continue. New M5 AQCC members may table additional locations for consideration by the committee and further investigation by the New M5 project team. 3. New M5 Asset Trustee Community Engagement Manager and CDS-JV air quality consultant explained that the shortlisted locations had been developed to meet New M5 Condition of Approval E10. and are informed by air quality modelling of impacts associated with the New M5 ventilation outlets based on 2

3 detailed design of the New M5 (noting the New M5 Environmental Impact Statement Air Quality assessment is based on concept design of the New M5). 4. To inform the positioning of the air quality monitoring stations, contour plot maps have been prepared modelling pollutant-less, unitless ground level concentrations associated with the New M5 ventilation outlets in three-time scenarios: i. One-hour average maximum ii. 24-hour average maximum iii. Annual average The shortlisted potential monitoring locations are numbered (in no particular order of preference) on each of the contour plot maps. See Meeting 2 presentation. 5. Questions and comments: i. When will the AQCCC provide input on the preferred locations of the air monitoring station locations The AQCCC will review and discuss the short list of potential locations and provide advice on potential alternative locations for consideration at this meeting. The New M5 Asset Trustee and RMS will consider AQCCC feedback provided at this meeting and investigate feasible new options provided by the AQCCC between now and the next meeting, tentatively scheduled for February ii. Is the purpose of the air quality monitoring stations to measure impact of the New M5 ventilation outlets or to measure air quality generally? The purpose of the air monitoring stations is to measure ambient air quality in the vicinity of the New M5 tunnel ventilation outlets. The monitoring stations must meet the requirements outlined in New M5 Condition of Approval E10. ii. How was the ambient air quality modelling presented at this meeting carried out? The Air Quality Monitoring was carried out using a steady-state plume model that incorporates air dispersion based on planetary boundary layer turbulence structure and scaling concepts, including treatment of both surface and elevated sources, both simple and complex terrain, meteorological data including topography, wind speed, atmospheric conditions, land use and predicted traffic volumes. The modelling is based on New M5 detailed design and is consistent with the modelling undertaken for the New M5 Environmental Impact Statement. The results are presented as contour plots in attached presentation (Meeting 2 presentation). o The center contour line indicates the area of highest concentration, decreasing in concentration as it moves away from the center contour line. 3

4 o The contour plots do not demonstrate exceedance of air quality targets and guidelines. SHORT LISTED POTENTIAL LOCATIONS FOR AIR QUALITY MONITORING STATIONS 6. Discussion of shortlisted sites for air monitoring stations led by New M5 Asset Trustee Community Engagement Manager. The shortlisted potential monitoring locations are numbered (in no particular order of preference) on each of the contour plot maps. See Meeting 2 presentation. 7. Questions and comments regarding air monitoring stations near the Kingsgrove ventilation outlet, to meet Condition of Approval E10 a): i. Was RMS land considered near the Kingsgrove ventilation outlet? Most of the RMS owned land in the vicinity of the Kingsgrove ventilation outlet is currently being used to construct the New M5 and will not be available in the timeframes required to meet Conditions of Approval. ii. What are the dimensions of the air quality monitoring stations? Air quality monitoring stations are approximately 3m x 3m x 3m. With provisions for fencing, access and electricity, a compound footprint of approximately 6m x 6m would be required. iii. Can air quality monitoring stations be placed on top of buildings? Technically yes, but the Conditions of Approval (E10) require the stations to be positioned at ground level. This question was addressed in Meeting 1. Further information responding to this question in the Meeting 1 notes available at the following link: iv. What pollutants are monitored? This question was addressed in Meeting 1. Further information responding to this question is available in the Meeting 1 notes and presentation at the following link: v. Proposed Kingsgrove sites 4 and 5 may be flood prone areas. How will this affect monitoring stations? Georges River Council advised that concrete slab in place on proposed Kingsgrove site 4 is above flood level. The project team will check that site 5 is not in a flood prone area. vi. A concern was raised by the group regarding the visual impact of monitoring stations on proposed Kingsgrove sites 2 and 5, given the land s use as public open space and the size of the park areas. The group indicated that these sites should be given a lower priority if other appropriate sites were available. 4

5 The comment was noted. Consideration will be given to positioning and visual amenity in the ongoing investigations. vii. Are there any other sites closer to the Kingsgrove ventilation outlet that are not included in the existing shortlist? The New M5 project team has considered all RMS owned land available near the Kingsgrove ventilation outlet and proposed four council owned sites. The New M5 team are not aware of any additional sites in close proximity that could be feasibly secured for the minimum 3-year period required under the New M5 Conditions of Approval. The group are welcome to suggest other feasible sites for consideration. viii. Could monitoring stations be placed on the side of the road or in carparks such as the Garema Circuit Carpark? Air quality monitoring stations could be located on the side of the road where land is available as long as the stations do not block footpaths, access or car parking spaces. There are few roadside verges in the vicinity of the Kingsgrove ventilation outlet which would have enough space for a ventilation outlet. The Garema Circuit Carpark is owned by Canterbury Bankstown Council. The project team will investigate whether the Garema Circuit Carpark is a suitable location and discuss with the local council. ix. Is the RMS owned land adjacent to Kingsgrove Road and the proposed Kingsgrove site 2 a possible location for an air monitoring station? This land may be used as a truck staging area for the New M5 project, subject to approval. The project team will investigate whether this site would be suitable for use as a monitoring station location. x. A comment was made that proposed Kingsgrove Site 4 was outside the areas of highest concentration indicated on the contour plot maps and that sites closer to the ventilation outlet and areas of highest concentration should be prioritised if possible. Comment was noted. Proposed Kingsgrove Site 4 was the location of a former air quality monitoring station that was used to inform the New M5 EIS. 2. Questions and comments regarding air quality monitoring stations near the Arncliffe ventilation outlet, to meet Condition of Approval E10 b): i. A comment was made about potential visual amenity of an air quality monitoring station at proposed Arncliffe Site 1 within the parcel of land currently being used to construct new frog pond habitat. 5

6 ii. Comment was noted. Current investigations indicate that space is available within the site which would not impact the footprint of the frog pond habitat under construction. Further investigations would be carried out to better understand any sensitivities associated with this location Will the future Cooks Cove residential development have an impact on proposed air quality monitoring station locations? The shortlisted potential locations are not on land proposed for the future Cooks Cover development. Assessment of the shortlisted sites will take into account the proximity of any approved high rise development scheduled to be built over the next 4 years. AQCCC member suggested the following additional potential sites for monitoring iii. iv. stations in the vicinity of the Arncliffe Ventilation outlet: Corner of Wickham Road and Princess Highway, Arncliffe Corner or Segenhoe and Avenal Street, Arncliffe v. The project team will investigate the feasibility of these potential options, consult with council and report back to the AQCCC before the next meeting. 3. Questions and comments regarding air monitoring stations near the St Peters Ventilation outlet: There is an existing air monitoring station located on the premises of St Peters Public School which will remain on site as per agreement with the St Peters Public School and the Department of Education. The group suggested that the suggested location 3 at Simpson Park may not be considered reasonable by the St Peters community given the small size of the park. Suggest this site only be considered if other suitable locations are not available. 4. AQCCC ideas for potential sites for consideration near the St Peters Ventilation outlet: Container terminal on Canal Road o This is a densely occupied council owned site, land leased to a private operator. The site is unlikely to be suitable for an air quality monitoring station given its commercial use, however the project team will investigate the suitability of this site and advise the AQCCC before next meeting. 5. Questions and comments regarding ambient air quality monitoring stations: i. A concern was raised regarding the location of proposes site 3 at Barton Park, near Bestic Street that this location may impact on the use of public open space in this area. This location had been previously used as a monitoring location during the preparation of the New M5 EIS. The location within the park is within an area of low public use. A photo of exact proposed location will be distributed before the next meeting so that that the AQCCC can consider potential impacts. 6

7 NEXT STEPS 1. The New M5 Asset Trustee will continue to investigate the feasibility of the potential locations presented at this meeting, noting the feedback provided by the AQCCC and consider the additional sites suggested by the AQCCC members at this meeting. The New M5 Asset Trustee will report back to the AQCCC by the next meeting or earlier with information on the findings of the investigations, including information that would rule out the suitability of any sites. 2. The AQCCC are invited to provide any additional information that they would like to be considered regarding the sites discussed in this meeting as soon as possible via the IC. NEXT MEETING Tentatively scheduled for 6pm, 20 February It is anticipated that this would be the only meeting required in 2018, subject to the finalisation of the air quality monitoring station locations.
