Environmental Impact Assessment in Construction Activities for Dahab Tower Building Mogadishu
Journal Title: American Journal of Environment and Climate (AJEC) - Year 2022, Vol 1, Issue 3
Abstract
The degree of knowledge and understanding of construction stakeholders, particularly pro-ject managers, about the environmental impacts of construction processes has to be improved because construction is one of the major causes of environmental pollution worldwide. This study aims to assess the most common environmental impacts of the DahabTower building project in Mogadishu. To achieve this objective, this study’s evaluation of the project’s impact has used a checklist matrix. Environmental risks were discovered to be present in the project, including waste generation (municipal, construction, and demolition wastes); changes in the characteristics of the soil; and the emission of air pollutants, among others. These risks are similar to those that are present in the majority of infrastructure and construction projects. Through the suggested mitigation strategies, these risks may be effectively controlled and monitored through preferred mitigation steps.
