watchers, recreational fishers. LANDFILL(capping and blending for beneficial use) Clearing of land for drying sites (e.g. impact on turtle nesting sites, coastal vegetation), saline and turbid tail water discharge to surrounding coastal system from drying out ponds, water quality impacts on surrounding creeks, runoff, turbidity plumes and effluent spills during filling/pumping operations. Clearing of land for facilities and storage areas, storm water runoff from construction activities. Noise from pumping operations, construction activities, transportation and heavy machinery. Dust and surface water pollution. Aesthetic impact on surrounding environment from large drying out sites, processing facilities and landfill disposal sites. Low slope and stable site required for facilities and containment of material. Sloping land of < 2 per cent preferable. Slopes > 5 per cent unsuitable. High carbon footprint due to transportation of fill to landfill sites. Large amount of machinery involved with double handling of material. Loss of land for drying areas.
