Builders asked to implement dust reduction measures

The ACT Government reminds builders that dust suppression during construction is important during the current weather conditions in the ACT.

The generation of dust can cause detrimental effects to the health and amenity of neighbours and employees, reduced visibility on site, increased wear on machinery and equipment and complaints from neighbours.

During dry spells and on days of high wind, please ensure extra measures are taken to minimise dust on your worksite for more information visit environment.act.gov.au [.PDF 464 KB].
