Builders must prioritize environmental protection at construction sites alongside safety and efficiency. The infographic below covers several measures that can be used to minimize environmental risks at construction sites. These might include using sediment traps, erosion control, and stabilizing soil to minimize water runoff and erosion. For water pollution, proper waste disposal, vegetation preservation, and wastewater treatment are vital. Air pollution can be reduced by using alternative fuel sources and enclosing sites with dust screens. Soil compaction can be mitigated through equipment mats and soil treatment.
