Dust control

If in doubt � Stop and Shout!. Avoid disturbing or exposing more soil than you need to. Try to locate stockpiled soils in sheltered areas where the wind won�t get to it.
If dust becomes a problem, stop work and start dampening down, stabilising or covering.

Control dust by:

Spraying water lightly on exposed areas with a sprinkler, a hose or fine spray, or a k-line.
Covering exposed areas with well-fixed plastic sheeting or tarpaulins (suitable only for overnight/weekend)
Covering exposed areas with compost, wood mulch, gravel or seeding with hydroseed or grass if the area will be exposed for longer periods.
Don’t drive over stabilised areas
