Construction dust management and monitoring is a process that aims to reduce the emission and exposure of dust from demolition and construction activities. It involves the following steps:

• Assessing the potential dust impacts of the project, such as the type, quantity, and duration of dust emissions and the sensitivity of the surrounding receptors.

• Implementing appropriate dust control measures, such as using water sprays, covers, barriers, and filters, to minimise dust generation and dispersion.

• Monitoring the dust levels and the effectiveness of the control measures using instruments such as gravimetric samplers, optical particle counters, and dust deposition gauges.

• Review and update the dust management plan and the control measures based on the monitoring results and stakeholder feedback.

Construction dust management and monitoring are essential for protecting the health and well-being of the workers, the public, and the area's environment and amenities.
