Best practices for ensuring a construction project does not cause environmental damage include selecting build sites with sensitivity to ecological factors; minimizing the footprint of the construction site and impacts on habitats; mitigating waste through recycled materials, efficient design and clean-up protocols; constructing stormwater systems to reduce water runoff risks; establishing soil conservation plans; minimizing soil disturbance, compaction and grading when possible; reusing indigenous plants in landscaping plans and specifying low-maintenance materials that do not require painting or frequent replacement. Additionally, any disruption to existing habitats must be minimised wherever possible. Invasive species should be removed from sites, and native species should be protected whenever practical. Construction operations should also use equipment designed to reduce emissions, as applicable. Furthermore, noise pollution mitigation strategies should also be employed on site as necessary.

Best practices for environmental protection on construction projects include performing an environmental assessment before work begins, minimizing soil disturbance and erosion, managing stormwater runoff and disposing of it properly, conserving water resources, avoiding or minimizing impact to wildlife and habitats, safeguarding against pollution incidents, protecting surfaces from contaminants,sandblasting rather than graffiti tagging.
