The Contractor will strictly adhere to and monitor all procedures for protection of the public on a daily basis. The
project site will be enclosed with a construction fence. In addition, sidewalk areas and walkways near
construction activities will be maintained throughout construction to protect pedestrians to ensure their safety.
Police details will also be used to direct traffic and access in and out of the jobsite when required. Construction
procedures will be designed to meet all Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) safety standards
for specific site construction activities.
3 Material Handling
31111"111111 C 0 S''t 1, Waste
The contractor will take an active role with regards to the reprocessing and recycling of construction waste. The
excavation contract, if applicable, will include specific requirements, which will ensure construction procedures
allow for necessary segregation, reprocessing, re-use, and recycling of materials. For those materials that cannot
be recycled, solid waste will be transported in covered trucks to an approved solid waste facility, per the
Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) Regulations for Solid Waste Facilities, 310 CIVIR 16.00. This
requirement will be specified in the disposal contract.

Dumpsters will be located within the construction area perimeter. Dumpsters will be secured with odor and dust
control measures and will have proper permits. Dumpster pick-ups to be done during normal construction hours
and will avoid peak traffic periods.
Loading and unloading of the dumpsters will take place with-in the proposed fence areas.

4 Construction Traffic Impacts
111,,111111 ����10L,Jltes &��1'1111id
Truck traffic will vary throughout the construction period, depending on the activity. Construction truck access to
and from the Project site for contractor personnel, supplies, material deliveries, and removal of excavated
materials for the Project shall be limited to the routes set forth on the, "Truck Routing Plan" of the Construction
Management Plan. These routes will be mandated as a part of all subcontractors' contracts for the Project.
The impact of construction trucks in the evening peak hour is expected to be insignificant because all deliveries
will be scheduled for off-peak hours (9:00am—4:00pm) to the extent possible.
Trucks coming to and from the site are required to use major arterial roadways or highways and not local streets.
The selection of proposed truck routes is based on the following criteria:
Minimizing truck activity in the residential neighborhoods;
Designating specific roads where trucks are permitted; and
Providing access to and from the major arteries (e.g. Interstate 93, 495)
The attached "Truck Routing Plan" outlines truck delivery routes to and from the project site.
111111�1111,,,2 011flf,11111111111s��[Ite Slltag������111111g
The contractor will utilize an off-site staging area off of Burke Road on the Merrimack College campus to stage
construction vehicles and trailers. All deliveries will be closely coordinated. All concrete trucks will be radio
dispatched and controlled to avoid standing. Any truck unable to immediately access the jobsite upon arrival shall
be directed to the .
d1iiii,3 V&��,i���6��e Access
Access to the site for emergency vehicles will be maintained at all times. The proposed staging plan is designed
to isolate the construction while providing safe access for pedestrians and automobiles during normal day to day
activities and emergencies.
All construction material delivery trucks will be loaded and unloaded inside the construction fence throughout the
course of the project. Trucks and equipment will follow the designated truck route and be staged at the
designated areas on the CMP.
5 Construction Amir Quality
To reduce emission of fugitive dust and to minimize impacts on the environment, the contractor will adhere to a
number of strictly enforced mitigation measures, including the following:
When needed wetting agents will be used to control and suppress dust that has the potential to
become airborne by wind.
All trucks for transportation of construction debris will be fully covered.
Merrimack College Comer Redevelopment-Construction Management Plan 5
��t 11 5 91 814
Storage of construction debris will be within the fenced-in site. All storage containers will be covered at
the end of the work day.
Construction practices will be monitored to ensure that unnecessary transfers and mechanical
disturbances of loose materials are minimized and that any emissions of dust are negligible.
Sidewalks will be cleaned regularly to minimize dust accumulations.
If any contaminated soil is encountered during excavation a Licensed Site Professional (LSP)will be
on-site to oversee work associated with handling, treatment, stockpiling and removal of soil.
5,2 ��46��se
Every reasonable effort will be made to minimize the noise impact of construction activities. Mitigation measures
will include:
0 "No idling" signs will be posted at all load i ng/del ivery and pick-up/drop-off areas and at surface parking
spaces. Trucks may not idle on site for more than 5 minutes unless their operation is dependent on the
vehicle to be running. The contractor will follow regulations in the MA Sate Anti-idling law.
0 Locating noisy equipment as far as possible from sensitive areas.
0 Identifying and maintaining truck routes to minimize traffic and noise throughout the Project.
0 Replacing specific construction techniques by less noisy ones where feasible (e.g., using vibration pile
driving instead of impact driving, if practical).
0 Work Shall be performed as to prevent nuisance noise conditions that are preventable (e.g., un-
maintained equipment, brake squeal, act.).
NO WORK, including equipment warm-up and truck queuing or idling, will be permitted at the site prior to 7:00
A.M.
6 Additional Construction Moltmigaflon Measures
All means and methods for performing work at the Project site will be evaluated to minimize potential vibration
impacts on the adjacent properties and other nearby buildings.
6,2 &��,��Iiow
The contractor will remove snow from all public areas affected by their work and within the site fence. This will be
done daily as necessary, to ensure that all sidewalks are clear of snow and ice. Under no condition will the
removed snow be disposed of on public property.
6,3 U lt� ty C o��11 e c1t o s
There will be multiple utility connections on this project, most utilities will be located onsite, but some may affect
Elm Street. All utility connections will require coordination with each respective utility company and the North
Andover DPW. Road closures and street opening permits will be submitted for approval accordingly prior to the
start of each task.

e4e�Nitsch Engineering
Street cleaning will take place daily or as required (see dust control and snow removal sections below for more
information).
6,,,5
An infestation of rodents in the jobsite is a serious problem. In order to control this infestation, the Contractor
enforces the requirements established under the Massachusetts State Sanitary Code, Chapter 11, 105 CMR
410.550 and the State Building Code, Section 108.6.
The contractor will implement a rodent control program to be administered by a licensed pest control contractor.
Rodent control measures will be in-place prior to, during, and following construction activities. The program will
include performance of extermination and control procedures on a bi-weekly basis, and the placement of tamper
resistant bait boxes around the perimeter of the site.
6,,,6
Site dewatering is expected to be limited and will be in accordance with the applicable stormwater pollution
prevention plan (SWPPP) or National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) requirements for
sedimentation control. Groundwater levels will be monitored during the construction process.

Greystar recognizes the challenges of building construction in a location with overlapping jurisdictions and the
importance of responding to the needs of agencies with authority over abutting areas. The Massachusetts
Department of Transportation Highway Division, which has jurisdiction over Elm Street and Turnpike Street
adjacent to the project site, will be informed of the progress of construction, and appropriate Access Permits will
be submitted as necessary for construction access and utility connections.
As appropriate, Greystar has coordinated construction activities with the Merrimack College Facilities
Department and other on-going construction projects in the area to help minimize the impacts to the community.
