Description
Unpleasant odors can arise from specific processes, adversely affecting workers and residents in the surrounding area downwind of the construction site. Odors from construction site activities potentially include several sources, for example:
inadequately maintained septic tanks or sewage networks; exhaust emissions from vehicles or equipment; and poor waste management including dumped food waste, causing discomfort to workers and neighbors.
Objective
To minimize odors and VOC emissions arising from construction activities.
