11 Noise and Dust Mitigation Turner is doing everything it can to mitigate impact of noise and dust – beyond what is required by code. Noise will be at its worst during demolition and excavation between February and August. Rock excavation is scheduled for the summer months. No construction will take place during reading periods and finals. Third-party assessments underway: Assessment construction/mitigation plan; Evaluation of ambient conditions and recommendations for additional mitigation steps. Collaboration with Columbia’s Environmental Health and Safety experts. 11

12 Noise and Dust Mitigation Noise MitigationDust Mitigation Use of sound deadening blankets along construction fence and higher fence than required Sound mufflers on vehicles No truck idling on Claremont Pre-treated rock to help ease excavation Effort to move class times No construction during reading period and finals Barnard studying noise impacts for potential other mitigation efforts Fine mesh fencing around Lehman hall Covered windows during demolition Wetting – hose operation during demolition Truck wash-down stations during excavation/foundation period Gravel and stone gateways limit dust 12
