1. ut and fill operations and other ,or3s such as vegetation clearing and soil e!cavation should be avoided
on rainy days unless silt traps and interceptor drains are incorporated in the construction sites to prevent
erosion and subsequent siltation of nearby ,ater bodies
'. +orro, sites and quarrying sites should not be close to ,ater bodies and even noise sensitive areas
*. Removal of land cover in natural slopes should be restricted to maintain e!isting slope stability and
subsequent collapsing and erosion problems
.. Any e!cavated slopes should be maintained at stable angles depending on the type of soil encountered
1. onstruction ,or3s should not be carried in areas susceptible to severe erosion and landslides, hence to
avoid severe colour and turbidity problems in any nearby ,ater bodies

>. Once an area is e!ploited for fill material it is undesirable to leave that land in the form of an undulating
plane. ?uch land e!ploited for fill material should be cut in to profiles of flat surfaces leaving no over
burden
;. After completion of e!cavation for fill material slope should be maintained to ensure stability and benches
and drains should be provided to avoid erosion and slope failure
8. Minimi4e vegetation clearing as much as possible and avoid heavy deforestation
19. Refrain from using ,eedicides containing ha4ardous materials that are highly to!ic and could
