Environment Policy
3.0 Project Scope
3.1 Project Requirements
The project requirements are divided into two sections such as legislation requirements and the
technical and developmental requirements. The projects aim towards the environmental
protection in order to promote a healthier life for the people of Koala city and the wildlife at this
place. The project requirement sheds light over the long-term changes and the sustainability of
the eco-friendly system in this city. However, this change policy and the environmental policy
will shade light over all the corporate offices, manufacturing units, and the daily lives of the local
people. However, the state and the local government will give extra care towards the wildlife of
this place. The First section of this project will shed light over the legislative requirement in
order to restrict the current practices in the locality in order to make the environment safer. This
requirement will highlight the reconstruction of the environmental policies such as the use of
renewable energy sources, use of electric vehicles, use of disposal materials, and the daily
practices related to the environmental pollution (Fleming & Koppelman, 2016). This legislation
will be applicable over all the industries, offices and the design of the city. On the other hand,
this project will be a development work, which will be implemented in the locality and the
offices in this place. In order to promote a healthier environment, first importance will be given
towards the electrification system. In this system, the source of the energy will be converted to
the renewable sources gradually. In this segment as an energy source, the development work will
include the solar grid power-supply service and the wind air. This city promotes empty lands that
can be used for implementing windmills and solar panels to produce electricity (Alshamrani &
Bahattab, 2015). On the other hand, the use of electric vehicles will reduce the air pollution from
the vehicles. In the case of manufacturing units and the industries, this project will require
implementing better filtering system, which will be used at the polluted water extraction points.
On the other hand, the offices will properly use the natural light in order to reduce the electricity
consumption. Moreover, electricity efficient electrical equipment such as LED lights and low
consumption fans will be used in order to reduce the electricity consumption (Jahagirdar, 2015).
On the other hand, drainage system will use water treatment plant in order to promote a pollution

9
Environment Policy
free natural water resources. The better AI based traffic controlling system will take care of the
traffic jams, which will promote a healthier environment. In order to reduce the electricity
consumption of the streetlights, there will be automation system. The streetlights will be
powered directly from the miniature solar system attached to the lights. The lights will have
enabled light sensor that will switch on the light in the low light condition (Joskow, 2014).
Moreover, this development work will also include road construction, which will aim to provide
a better transport system and reduce dust.
3.2 Work Breakdown Structure
The work breakdown structure will shed light over the span of different tasks. However, the
work of the development project will shed light over two sections such as legislative
development and the constructional development. Both the development sections will start
working at the same time. The project life is one year in which all the developmental works need
to be done properly. For the legislative section, the team for the legislation restructure will
analyze the present legislation available for the city. This work will start on 15th September and
will end on 18th of September 2018. In this section, all the members will analyze the factors in
the present legislation and will opt out the factors where the restructuring is required. From 18th
September 2018 to 25th September 2018 the members will include the new legislation as a
proposal. The highest court of the state will revise the new reformed legislation and will promote
a new environmental law by 1st October 2018.
On the other hand, the developmental work will first shed light over the installation of the solar
system and solar power grid for the power supply system for the location. This work will start on
15th September 2018 and will end on 10th of April 2019. Besides the implementation of the
renewable energy source, the development work will shed light over the electrification system in
the locality. In order to promote a better-uninterrupted power service, there will be a 33kv
substation (Hua, Oliphant & Hu, 2016). From there the electricity distribution system will
implement underground cabling. This will start on 20th September 2018 and will end on the 15th
of February 2019. After completion of the underground cabling system, this construction work
will shed light on streetlights and better roads. Implementation of the low power consumption
light as the streetlights will start from 16th February 2019 and will end on 20th June 2019. On
the other hand, the construction of the road will start from 21st June and will complete by 10th

10
Environment Policy
September 2019. However, there will be the installation of the better power system in the offices
(Kramer, 2018). In the government office and the corporate office's installation of the LED lights
and electrical equipment of low electricity, the installation will start from 21st June and will
complete by 13th September 2019. In between, this year of development works all the
manufacturing companies will install a better filtering process at the exhausts within 10th
December 2018. After that, the government will install wastewater-filtering process in order to
reduce the water pollution and make the water reusable. This water treatment plant construction
will start from 11th December 2018 and will end on 5th September 2019.

4.3 Project Milestone
Analysis of the present legislation will start on 15th September and will end on 18th of
September 2018. From 18th September 2018 to 25th September 2018 the members will include
the new legislation as a proposal. The highest court of the state will revise the new reformed
legislation and will promote a new environmental law by 1st October 2018.
Installation of the solar system and solar power grid for the power supply system will start from
15th September 2018 and will end on 10th April 2019. From there the electricity distribution
system will implement underground cabling. This will start on 20th September 2018 and will end
on 15th February 2019. Implementation of the low power consumption light as the streetlights
will start from 16th February 2019 and will end on 20th June 2019 (Harris, 2015). On the other
hand, the construction of the road will start from 21st June and will complete by 10th September
2019. In the government office and the corporate office's installation of the LED lights and
electrical equipment of low electricity, the installation will start from 21st June and will

Environment Policy
complete by 13th September 2019. Development works all the manufacturing companies will
install a better filtering process at the exhausts within 10th December 2018. After that, the
government will install wastewater-filtering process in order to reduce the water pollution and
make the water reusable. This water treatment plant construction will start from 11th December
2018 and will end on 5th September 2019.
5.0 Project Cost
5.1 Project Costs
The costing of the project is divided into two sections. The legislative development will require a
project cost of $0.01 million. On the other hand, the total constructional work requires $2.49
million. The biggest costing will go for development of solar power grid and the electrification
system. However, the only solar power grid system will require $0.9 million. On the other hand,
the underground cabling will require $0.09 million. On the other hand, the construction of the
water treatment system will require $0.5 million. In order to promote a better transportation
system, the development of better road will require $0.2 million (Dehabadi, Salari & Mirzaei,
2014). On the other hand, the implementation of the road lights will require $0.4 million.
However, the electrification system and changing accessories within the offices will require $0.4
million. Hence, the total project cost becomes $2.5 million in order to complete the total
developmental work. However, this costing for each segment of the development work includes
the worker's salary also.
5.2 Project Budget
The project budget includes all the development work requires to promote a better environmental
plan. According to the government policy, this developmental project carries a budget of $2.5
million. However, this budget includes all the purchase of the equipment for the constructional
work. On the other hand, the budget also includes the payment for the workers of the project
work.

Environment Policy
6.0 Project Stakeholders
6.1 Stakeholder Analysis
The development of environmental policy includes all the public bodies, government, and the
people 0fo this place as the part of the stakeholders. The main stakeholder of the development
plan is the government. The impact of the project is high for the government agencies. On the
other hand, the government body and the government agencies carry high influence over the
development work. The government is responsible to design the developmental plan. On the
other hand, the government body will be mainly responsible for the refrain of the environmental
planning and reframing the legislation regarding the environmental laws for the state. However,
the government bodies will be responsible to act the progress of the development work in order
to complete the work in time. Moreover, the private sectors and the companies that will take over
the government projects are highly responsible for completing the project within time. Moreover,
the organizations will possess high influence over the quality of the developmental work, as the
private construction companies will do the constructional work. This organization carries a high
impact on other small and medium size company. Moreover, these changes in the organizations
will also leave a positive impact on the mind of the people of this city. Employees of the
government bodies and the private companies are also the stakeholder of the development work.
The interest of the employees over the development is medium. On the other hand, the impact of
the employees is high for the developmental work. Nevertheless, the community is also the part
of the stakeholder in order to complete the developmental work. However, the level of interest of
the people of that location is high. On the other hand, the impact of the development
environmental plan is also high. However, the contribution of each stakeholder differs. In this
development plan, the government body and the government agencies will provide the funding
and will promote regulation for the project. On the other hand, the organization that will work
under the legislation and supervision of the government agencies will contribute to the quality of
the work. However, the people of the location will contribute to the project by understanding the
regulation and maintaining this regulation in daily practice. Moreover, there will be a barrier for
each stakeholder such as the government might fail to engage the community in the development
work. On the other hand, the private organizations might fail to adhere to the policies regulated
by the government. In this development work, the stakeholders will hold different engagement

13
Environment Policy
policy such as the government will follow advocacy in order to implement the new legislation
based on environmental policy. Moreover, the private companies will shed light over license and
partnership in order to stray engaged with the project work. On the other hand, the engagement
of people will be dependent on the education system.
6.2 Communications Management
In order to make the project successful and mitigate any kind of risk in the project work the most
important part is the communication plan. In order to track the progress of the developmental
work, the government will take help of the monthly meeting and submission of the progress
report. On the other hand, the media of the communication process will be email and submission
of hard copy of the developmental report. On the other hand, the organizations, which will in
charge for the constructional work, maintain a weekly meeting and review of the work. This will
help the project in charges for each organization to track the progress of the work. However, they
will use emails and meetings as the form of communication. However, they will also use phone
calls and Skype for informal communication in order to maintain the quality of the work and
track the progress of the project work. However the success of the project independent on the
engagement of the community in order to promote a better communication process among the
people of this location. In such case, the government can promote campaigns to educate the
people about the need of the project.
7.0 Project Risks
7.1 Project Success Measures
The success of the project is dependent on a number of factors such as meeting agreements,
organizational success, the project team's success and success of the community to understand
the project. The project work is dependent on funding, cost estimation, and meeting
specification. That is why the success of the project work is primarily dependent on the funding
by the government as the total development work carries a certain cost. On the other hand,
maintaining milestones for each task also an important factor in order to complete the project
successfully (Lee Wick & Figueroa, 2018). On the other hand, the success of the project also lies
in the success of the companies in charge of the developmental work. Performance of the teams

14
Environment Policy
in the project work is the main actor for the successful completion of the project work. In this
factor, the skill of the employees acts as the deciding factor for the project. On the other hand,
the success of the project work is highly dependent on the cooperation of the community.
Maintaining the new legislation by the government and their satisfaction with the new
environmental policy can help to make the project successful. However, the companies and the
changes in the companies influence the community. In order to leave a positive effect on the
environment, the organizations and the government offices need to implement the changes
according to the new environmental policy. On the other hand, the availability of the accessories
and products supporting the new environmental policy can motivate the community to
implement the changes in daily life, which will help to make the project successful.
7.2 Project Risk Analysis
This project might face different risk factors as the challenges towards the project. In this project
work, the biggest risk factor might be the natural disaster such as flood and tornado. However,
the impact of the flood will stay for a long time that will interrupt the project for a long time.
However, a cyclone or tornado will affect the developmental work for a minor. However, flaws
in the project design can affect the costing of the project and can work as challenges for
completing the project successfully. However, the probability of the risk factor is low, as the
government has given more importance towards the project design. On the other hand, the
probability of the natural disaster is medium. On the other hand, the communication gap can act
as the major risk factor in order to maintain the quality of the project and track the tasks in the
developmental work (Lock, 2017). There is the possibility of this risk as this developmental
work consists of a number of sub-projects or tasks. The project cannot be successful without the
proper engagement of the employees. The problem in funding for the project can work as the risk
factor as a problem in paying the salary to the employees can de-motivate the employees, which
will work as the prior risk for the project. Moreover, the success of the project is dependent on
the engagement of the people of the place (Marcelino-Sádaba et al. 2014). The engagement of
the people is dependent on the understanding of the process of the project. Non-cooperation of
the community in the project work the government might face challenges in order to complete
the project on time successfully. However, the probability of the risk is high, as the government
requires promoting a proper knowledge of the project work.

9.0 Justification of Organizational Capacity to Undertake the Project
In order to undertake the project work, any organization needs to carry specialization in different
segments. The local government and the city council require completing the project on time and
within budget. The applicant organization has different specialized sections to perform different
works. The success of the project work is dependent on the financial section, the design section,
the constructional section, and the public relations section. In order to perform the big project,
the main criteria are to possess financial strength. Before the disbursement of the total cost for
the project by the government, the company needs to start the project with the help of the own
financial condition. However, the organization has enough financial strength, as it is one of the
biggest construction companies in Australia, which has experience of more than 10 big projects.
The main positive part of the organization is a different section of constructional work promotes
the use of the latest technology. This use of the latest technology promotes a better quality of the
project and completes the project in fewer times. On the other hand, the organization uses the
latest ERP system and project management system. His systems allow the teams to stay

19
Environment Policy
connected with the organization. The organization promotes a better control over the work of the
employees and the project management software helps to track the progress the work. However,
the risk management system and the contingency planning system help this organization to
mitigate risks at any stage and promote an optional plan for any kind of challenges. On the other
hand, use of accessories with new technology can help to maintain the new legislation of the
environmental plan, which will make the project successful.
