Phase Activity Measures
Pre-construction Road construction Disturbance to wildlife
Vertebrate fauna Avoid felling of nesting trees
and other possible habitats for
nesting and foraging
Construction Land clearing Habitat loss
Terrestrial/aquatic habitat Proper sustainable forest
management practice;
protection of catchment areas;
proper erosion control

Endangered, endemic or Directional felling of timber
protected plant species trees; establishment of
conservation areas
Disturbance to wildlife
Birds Avoid felling nesting trees,
fruiting trees and other possible
trees for nesting and foraging
Mammals, reptiles, and Well plan logging phases to
amphibians allow the animal to migrate or
move to the forested areas
Fish and other aquatic life Implementation of erosion
control measures; preserve
catchment areas
Disorientation and Phasing the construction
displacement of wildlife activities
Pollution and pollutant
Fish and other aquatic Implementation of erosion
life control measures; preserve
