EXECUTION OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING DURING THE REALIZATION OF THE STRETCH OF MOTORWAY A3 SA-RC BETWEEN THE GIOIA TAURO AND SCILLA JUNCTIONS

Description of the work
ambiente s.c. carries out the environmental monitoring during the set-up for a new stretch of more than 30 kilometres which involves the territory of the municipalities of Gioia Tauro, Palmi, Seminara, Bagnara Calabra, Scilla.

Noise and vibration
Appropriate sound wave and seismic campaigns were performed during the preparation and site set-up phases of the works. The acoustic impact and vibrational stress on the environment and on the health of workers were consequently assessed and monitored.
Atmosphere
The meteo-climatic characteristics and the air quality were monitored.
Soil and subsoil
Monitoring of soil resources foresaw the study of the quality of the material deposited and/or spoilt in order to verify the origin of the materials and their proper management in accordance with legislation in force.

Articulation of activities
Surface Water: on-site measurements and laboratory analysis to define the physical, chemical and bacteriological characteristics of water resource.
Groundwater: direct investigations with a network of piezometers and existing stations (wells, springs). The investigations focused on the physical and chemical nature of aquifers affected by construction works.
Ionising and non-ionising radiation
Evaluation of any radon present in the motorway stretch; creation of a database for epidemiological purposes and habitat protection.

Vegetation, flora, fauna and ecosystems
Vegetation: Assessment of possible alterations in the vegetation structure and the local flora.
Fauna: Assessment of possible habitats and food sources (vegetation) subtractions in various areas of the intervention; introduction of infrastructures aiming to mitigate the displacements of terrestrial fauna, disturbance caused by noise and any damage related to gaseous emissions, dust and any aquatic, environmental and soil pollution.
Ecosystems: identification and definition of any relationship between the biotic and abiotic component, the survival criticality of different species and the balance between biocenesi and biotypes.
