Docklands Stadium Land Status Report

1.0 INTRODUCTION

Baulderstone Hornibrook Pty Ltd (BHPL) was awarded the contract by the Docklands Authority to construct the new multipurpose sports and entertainment centre at the Docklands. A requirement of the contract is that BHFL obtain an Environmental Audit under Section 57AA of the Environment Protection Act in order to demonstrate that the land is suitable, in an environmental sense, for its intended end use.

2.0 SITE DESCRIPTION

The site is located in former rail yards in an area situated between Footscray Road and Spencer Street Station as shown in Figure 1. The boundary of the site for audit purposes is the current lease boundary running outside the structure wall as shown in Figure 2. The boundary is likely to be brought in to the outside wall of the Stadium to allow maximum space for other developers within the precinct’. The site covers a total area of approximately 4.5 hectares with boundaries as shown in Figure 2.

2.1 Site History

A requirement of the general Docklands Environmental Management Plan is that an archaeological investigation be carried out as part of the development of all areas of the Docklands. BHFL commissioned Mr. Gary Vines of the Living Museum of the West to carry out such a study. The program included:

0 background study of the history of the area; 0 a watching brief during initial earthworks on the site; and 0 the preparation of an archaeological assessment report.

The report makes interesting reading and it helps explain the ground conditions encountered during the excavation of the site. The report has been included as Appendix A.

The land on which the Stadium is being constructed is part of a large reclaimed area to the West of the City. The land was reclaimed starting in the mid 1800’s by filling with a variety of materials including silt dredged from the harbour, industrial waste and construction rubble.

Very little archaeological evidence was found during the excavation of the site and it was concluded ,that no further investigation was necessary’.

2.2 Geology

The geotechnical condition of the site was extensively studied by Golder Associates prior to commencement of the project (Reference 1). Excavations during earthworks and pile cap construction generally confirmed the findings of the Golder investigations.

’ It is likely that the same Environmental Auditor will be involved in other developments in the precinct. It was pointed out that the area to the south east once comprising Batman’s Hill was significant and should have an appropriate archaeological assessment.

D. I. R. T. /docklands/status report Page I 5 of 300 BAULDERSTONE Land Status Report 0 HORNIBROOK Docklands Stadium

The site was cleared of track and other surface developments prior to hand over to BHPL. The surface of the site consisted mainly of a layer of up to 1 metre of railway ballast with some areas of bitumen over layers of mixed fill several metres thick. The fill contained significant amounts of foreign material including railway line and sleepers, metal, bricks, concrete, ash, coke, and slag.

The natural soil consists of Quaternary Age deposits mainly comprising silt and silty clay with minor amounts of sandy clay, peat layers, shell beds and sand lenses ( Silt). The majority of material found during excavation was a dark brown silty clay. The higher levels of silty clay in the south eastern quadrant of the site are consistent with deposition of dredged material in that area of the site.

2.3 Site Preparation

The previous surface of the site consisted of several levels with sharp changes in elevation defined by retaining walls. There was a major retaining wall with a drop of approximately 3 metres running parallel to Footscray Road approximately 30 metres in from the boundary. There were extensive earthworks undertaken to prepare the site for construction. The earthworks included:

0 excavation and disposal of approximately 160,000 m3 (loose) of soil; 0 placing of a geogrid; 0 coverage with approximately 0.4 m of crushed rock; and 0 compaction.

Much of the surface cover consisted of railway ballast that had been removed and stockpiled on site. Approximately 10,000 m3 of fill was selected for structural and contamination qualities and stockpiled in the north east comer of the precinct (outside the lease). The material was kept for possible future use as backfill. Further descriptions of this material are included in Appendix C.

The fmal levels prior to the commencement of construction are shown in Figure 3.

2.4 Substructure Works

Part way through the initial earthworks program, piling began on the site. The overall piling program took about 12 months and consisted of approximately 3200 piles to a depth of 25 to 30 metres. Piling is complete except for some additional work which will be required along the western boundary associated with the main entrance from Footscray Road.

Substructure works which required fkrther excavation included:

0 construction of pile caps; and

0 installation of underground services.

This work required the excavation of small volumes of soil which, in most cases was stockpiled and disposed on a regular basis. A total of approximately 50,000 m3 (loose) of additional soil has been removed as part of the substructure works.

D. I.R. T. /docklands/status report Page 2 6 of 300 BAULD ERSTONE Land Status Report 0 HORNIBROOK Docklands Stadium

At the time of writing of this report the status of the substructure works was:

0 all of the pile caps have been constructed except for the pitch and the western entrance; and installation of underground services is complete except for final tie ins of the stormwater drains to the main line running along Footscray Road (this is actually offsite in the stormwater easement located in the zone marked R1 in Figure 2).

3.0 SITE ASSESSMENT

The assessment of the soil conditions of the site was initiated prior to construction and continued throughout substructure work. The information when taken as a whole (including results from soil remaining onsite from the preliminary investigation) represents a broad coverage of the site and hence the quality of the soil remaining under the Stadium can be determined from the available test results.

3.1 Preliminary Assessment

A preliminary assessment was carried out by Golder Associates prior to awarding the contract for construction of the Stadium. The results of this assessment were made available to the tenderers for the project in a report submitted to Connell Wagner (“Golder Report” - Reference 2). This report, in addition to testing of the soil contains detailed bore logs which give good definition to the types of fill present on the site.

Samples were collected from 114 locations on a 20 metre grid covering the entire Stadium footprint. The testing program included:

0 67 composites of 4 individual samples; 0 29 composites of 3 individual samples; 0 13 composites of 2 individual samples; and 0 5 individual samples.

Full details of the sampling and testing program are included in the Golder Report and are not- reproduced in this report. However we have prepared a useful summary table of analytical results which has been included as Table D1 in Appendix D.

The information from the preliminary assessment was analysed to determine the quality of the soil which required removal from the site. The test results indicated that fill east of the major retaining wall met, on average, EPA FiZZ Material Criteria (Reference 3) with the exception of copper which was marginally above (104 versus 100 mag). The area to the west of the retaining wall was found to be more contaminated with areas of ‘Gas Works’ waste resulting in contamination with polycyclic aromatic (PAH) and petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH).

A statistical analysis of the data on the soil was sent to the EPA. This provided the basis for agreement in which most of the soil was removed from the site as Solid Inert Wuste with some limited areas disposed as Low Level Contaminated Soil (Reference 3). The information provided to the EPA and their response is included in Appendix E

As part of the site validation program the final excavation levels were compared with the levels of samples collected from each of the test pits. The test results for soil samples deemed to be still remaining on site have been isolated from the rest of the data. The “remaining” test results are summarised in Table D2 in Appendix D and the locations shown in Figure 4.

D.I. R. T. /docklands/status report Page 3 7 of 300 BAULDERSTONE Land Status Report 0 HORNIBROOK Docklands Stadium

3.2 Validation Testing Program

A site testing program was undertaken to validate the status of the soil at the site. The program consisted of the collection of samples of:

0 surface gravel; subsurface soil from pilecap locations as they were being dug out; soil from service trenches; and subsurface samples from backhoe pits dug specifically for testing purposes.

The overall total for the validation program was 12 gravel samples from surface locations and 181 subsurface soil samples from 103 locations. Testing of the samples focused on the analytes found in high concentrations in the Golder preliminary assessment. The overall testing program is summarised in Table 1.

* Includes organochlorine pesticides, phenols and cyanide

There was additional testing of duplicate samples for quality control as discussed in the following section. A summary of the test results is include in Table D3 of Appendix D. Certified analytical results are included in Appendix G.

3.2.1 Surface Gravel

The site was surfaced with approximately 0.4 metres of gravel after bulk excavations. Most of the gravel was reused ballast that had been scraped and stockpiled. Virgin crushed rock from a Bora1 quarry was imported to cover approximately !4 of the site located on the western side.

The 12 samples that were collected were all from the reused gravel. The samples were tested in composites of 4 except for TPH which was for individual samples. There was no significant contamination detected in any of the samples.

3.3.2 Soil Samples

Most of the subsurface soil samples were collected from excavations for pilecaps and underground services, on an opportunistic basis throughout the first 8 months of construction work on the project (between January and August 1998). The remaining samples for the pitch area and western concourse and entrance were collected from a series of backhoe pits dug specifically for sampling purposes.

D.I. R. T. /docklands/status report Page 4 8 of 300 BAULDERSTONE Land Status Report 0 HORNIBROOK Docklands Stadium

A statistical analysis was camed out on the results to determine if the quality of the remaining soil was consistent with the information in the preliminary assessment. For this purpose the data was divided into 2 groups along a line approximately corresponding to the former major retaining wall3. The comparison of results is summarised in Tables 2 and 3.

The statistical results are consistent with the analysis of the Golders data divided in a similar manner. The results indicate that there is elevated levels of heavy metals, mainly copper, lead and zinc over the whole site.

The Western section was found to have areas of contamination with cyanide, PAHs and TPH. The hydrocarbon contamination in the western section is visible as green bands with the distinctive odour of ‘gasworks’ waste. Testing of several of these samples indicated that there was no contamination with volatile aromatic hydrocarbons.

The following locations were included in the data for the Western Area: V22-24,V33-35,V62-75, WO1-08. The remaining samples were grouped as the ‘Rest of Site’.

D. I.R. T. /docklands/status report Page 5 9 of 300 BAULDERSTONE Land Status Report 0 HORNIBROOK Docklands Stadium

A separate exercise was carried out using only data collected for ‘natural’ silty clay samples. This was done to verify that this material was not contaminated so that most of the testing program concentrated on the fill. The statistical results are summarised in Table 4.

Leachability of metal contamination as measured by the standard TCLP test was found in the Golder assessment not to be a serious issue (Refer Table 4C of Reference 2). No further TCLP testing was undertaken during the validation program.

3.3.3 Quality Control

The primary laboratory for the project was Australian Environmental Services (AEL) who are NATA registered for the required analyses. A number of samples were collected in duplicate and sent to WSL Consultants for quality control purposes. WSL is also NATA registered for all required analytical methods.

A summary of the duplicate test results is included in Tables D4 of Appendix D.

A statistical analysis was undertaken on the duplicate results where both samples were above detection limits, by calculating the relative percent difference (RPD). A summary of calculated RPDs for prime contaminants is given in Table 5.

Generally an RPD of 30% for metals and 50% for organics is considered acceptable. There is considerable difference in some of the results with RPDs above these benchmarks. This is not unexpected because of the heterogeneity of the samples. Inspection of the results indicates that the differences are random with no bias towards one laboratory.

D.I.R.T. /docklands/status report Page 6 10 of 300 BAULDERSTONE Land Status Report 0 HORNIBROOK Docklands Stadium

It was concluded based on: the large number of test results and the general agreement between the results of the validation program and the Golder assessment; and reasonable results of duplicate analyses; that analytical test results could be used to define the condition of the soil to remain onsite or to be disposed offsite.

3.3.4 Groundwater

Groundwater monitoring wells were installed along each of the boundaries of the site. The details of installations of the groundwater bores is included in Appendix F. An initial monitoring program was undertaken after installation of the bores in November 1997. A second round of groundwater monitoring was completed in August 1998.

It is apparent from the results that GW04 is significantly different than the other 3 bores with the significantly higher salinity and the presence of hydrocarbons. The apparent groundwater flow, based on the water table heights, appears to be from northeast to southwest. As the groundwater flow is towards GW04 the contamination is thought likely to have originated on the site. This fits with the presence of soil contamination found in that area of the site.

The main point that has come out of the second set of groundwater monitoring sample is that there was no longer hydrocarbons in GW04. The reasons may have something to do with the presence nearby of the temporary stormwater pit which is continually flushed with clean water and pumped to the dam. As the total dissolved solids are similar, we must be pumping to a level below the

D.I.R.T. /docklands/status report Page 7 11 of 300 BAULD ERST0 N E Land Status Report 0 HORNIBROOK Docklands Stadium groundwater and hence have probably drawn the contamination away from the bore to be replaced with clean saltwater.

It should be pointed out that there is likely to be more significant contamination of groundwater in the vicinity of the former West Gasworks. Further work on the Docklands, especially the cleanup of the gasworks, is likely to have significant impact on the local groundwater table over the next decade.

4.0 CONSTRUCTION PROGRAM

It is not the intention of this report to discuss in detail the construction program for Stadium. Further details are available, if required, in Construction Plans and Method Statements prepared as part of the project. The following is a brief description of the important elements considered relevant in assessing the final condition of the land.

A significant amount of soil was removed during construction. As agreed with the EPA based on the Golder assessment, most of the soil was removed from the site a Solid Inert Waste. Some soil which originated in the western area of the site was contaminated with TPH and PAHs and was removed as Low Level Contaminated Soil.

The Stadium footprint was benched at a level of approximately RL 2.0 as shown in Figure 3. Pilecaps and underground services were dug below this level and refilled, mainly with crushed rock. The final condition of the site, as defined in Figure 2, will find the interface with remaining soil almost completely covered with concrete or bitumen. There will be some very minor garden areas at ground level on the western side which will be filled with clean topsoil.

5.0 SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS

The final condition of the site can be deduced by referral to the:

site assessment program carried out by Golder Associates; and 0 validation program carried out by Baulderstone Hornibrook. I It is evident from visual observations and test results that there are minor area of soil contamination remaining below the Stadium. However, as the entire will be covered by the Stadium itself with water percolation limited by control of stormwater runoff, the contamination does not pose a significant environmental risk or health hazard to the future users of the site.

It should be noted that there is potential health risk should future work under the Stadium require removal of the seal layer and excavation into the soil. In such a case, appropriate health and safety measures should be taken to protect the workers.

21 of 300 Dockland Stadium Background This archaeological investigation of the site of the new Docklands Stadium has been carried out by Gary Vines of Melbourne's Living Museum of the West Inc. for the Baulderstone Hornibrook who are the construction contractors for the stadium. Under the Aboriginal and Archaeological Relics Act and the Heritage Act 1995 owners and developers of property have a statutory obligation to ensure the protection of both Aboriginal and historic archaeological materials on land under their control. The form of this archaeological investigation was determined in discussions with Leah McKenzie, Senior Historical Archaeologist with Heritage Victoria, and Quentin Pitts of Baulderstone Hornibrook. The study has been carried out by Gary Vines, Industrial Archaeologist with Melbourne's Living Museum of the West.

The Site The site of the proposed Docklands Stadium is located between Spencer Street and Footscray Road immediately West of the Melbourne CBD.This land was, prior to the develo'pment, part of the Spencer Street Railway Yards under the control of V Line, formerly the Victorian Railways Department. The specific area on which the stadium is being constructed has is part of Lot 2???, Section 73B, Parish of North Melbourne. The location of the study area is shown in Figure 1. Perm its/liais on Prior to commencement of the study a notification for the conduct of an archaeological survey was lodged with Heritage Victoria, Department of Planning & Development, under the Archaeological and Aboriginal Relics Preservation Act I972 (& Regulations 1992). This has since been superseded by The Heritage Act 1995. In additions, discussions were held with Leah McKenzie, Senior Historical Archaeologist with Heritage Victoria, regarding the appropriate methods for investigation. Michael Crestani of Baulderstone Hornibrook were consulted regarding the construction program. A copy of the notification of an archaeological survey is included in an appendix to this report. -

History of the Site

Environmental History Between Melbourne and Footscray was a swamp and saltmarsh environment on alluvial sediments formed by the deposition of silt from and the Yarra and Maribyrnong Rivers. The principal features of the area were:

-A large salt-water lagoon varjously known as Batman's Swamp or the West Melbourne Swamp,

-Marshy flats surrounding the lagoon and on either side of the ,

-The river itself which had natural raised levee banks with a scrub vegetation of . saltmarsh and tea tree, - An escarpment to the north and east which includes the remnants of Batman's Hill and a tongue of lava flow to the north.

The West Melbourne Swamp was an irregular shaped shallow salt-water lagoon about two kilometres east to west and one and a half kilometres north to south. Its southern shore was about 500 metres from the River Yarra and its western end a kilometre from the city. Between the river and lagoon was an area of tea-tree scrub while the remainder of the flats appear to have been treeless grass and marsh. The openness of the country is evident from John Pascoe Fawkner's comment that he took thefirst ride in a chaise ... [going] down to the salt lagoon and returned back another way very good driving and although through the trees found no inconvenience from the dead wood.

.' Solid blue clay formed the bottom of the lagoon and underlay the alluvial silt which comprised the deltaic deposits of the Yarra. The alluvial flats were about one metre above sea level and the lagoon was barely above the high water level of the River and so up to the 1890s floods were quite common with as much as seven feet (2.1 metres) of water covering the land. During summer the lagoon often dried out. - The term 'Batman's Swamp' appears to have been originally applied only to the lagoon, but later both Batman's Swamp and the alternative West Melbourne Swamp referred to all the low lying land north of the Yarra and west of the main North Eastern Railway.

Batman's Hill, also called Mount Pleasant, was a low mound of resistant volcanic rock rising from the bank of the Yarra. It fell away to swamps and river flats on three sides and was connected to high ground by a saddle on the north east and a narrow ridge ran south almost to the river bank.

An escarpment, steep in places, ran roughly north west from Batman's Hill coming within about 200 metres of the lagoon and then following the east side of Moonee Ponds Creek. On the west side of the creek a tongue of basalt rock from lava flows extended south to the very edge of the lagoon tenninating in a steep cliff.*

Aboriginal Occupation 9

Records suggest that the area around Batman's swamp and Batman's Hill was a very important environment of Aborigines. They exploited this environment for food and materials for clothing, tools etc. Little is recorded of their activities but when Fawkner came across a group of Aborigines near Batman's Swamp he noted ...'the Blacks at first alarmed, the women in particular. When I drove towards them threw themselves into strange but pleasing positions and bellowed loudly'. Aboriginal artefacts have been recorded on the banks of the Maribyrnong River upstream of Footscray., and on the creek banks within the metropolitan area. However, most of their camping sites in inner Melbourne have long been destroyed by European settlement.

Batman's Hill appears to have been a focus for Aborigines, both as a rich source of food and a ceremonial and spiritual site. This evidently led to additional conflicts between Aborigines and Europeans. The Yarra fiver formed a boundary between the Aboriginal groups of the Bunefong and WoiwurungNurundjeri tribes. The particular clan which probably frequented the lower Yarra and swamp was the Yalukit wilIam but other clans probably had rights to use this area.

Early settlement Knowledge of Bay came to navigators and settlers in New South Wales only 14 years after settlement had begun in Australia when on January 5 1802 Lieut. John Murray aboard the Lady Nelson observed what was 'apparently a fine harbour of large extent' through the heads which guard the entrance to Port Phillip Bay. Two months later on a second visit he entered the bay and took possession of the port in the name of George III. Seven weeks after this Captain Matthew Hinders, aboard the Investigator, sailed into the bay and reported an 'extensive harbour' surrounded by country which had 'a pleasing, and in many places a fertile appearan~e'.~

On the basis of the reports from Murray and Hinders, Governor King despatched his Surveyor-General, Charles Grimes with instructions to explore the shores of the Bay. On 2 February 1803 Grimes and his party rowed a small boat up the course of the Yarra River to its tidal limit, at about the Queen Street Bridge. Fleming, a member of his party later, described this place as 'the most eligible place for a settlement that I have seenI.5

Melbourne's first white settlement was in the vicinity of Batman's Hill. Russell's 1837 map of Melbourne shows three long narrow buildings at the top of a ridge which led down to the river with a fenced paddock, a garden and cultivated ground. These were John Batman's house and outbuildings.6 This area can be located today only from documents and no physical evidence of the first period of settlement is likely to be found because of the extensive excavations and reclamation associated with river improvements, railway copuction and city buildings, and in particular, the levelling of the top of Batman's Hill to form the Spencer Street Railway Yards. However, the topographic features which identified the site such as the high ground adjacent to the river and swamp can be identified by the informed observer.'

When the Government survey was carried out under Hoddle's supervision the streets of Melbourne were laid out around the existing huts to the east of Batman's farm to take advantage

This 9 coeographic influence continued to determine future land use in the area. As land around Melbourne was surveyed and sold, the higher and more fertile areas were given preference and the swamps and riverbanks were reserved for future public purposes.

Drainage The development of the land between Melbourne and Footscray was dependent of the drainage and reclamation of the Batman's Swamp. This work was a long process begun in a small way in the 1850s and has continued right up to the present day with a few remnants of the old swamp still being subject to filling operations.

In the 19th century Batman's Swamp was both a banier to travel west of Melbourne and an impediment to westward expansion of the city. Development in the vicinity of the swamp was confined to its margins prior to the second world war. Most of the land south of Swamp (Dynon) Road and north of the Yarra was left empty except for rubbish tips. The Melbourne City Council, Melbourne HarbourTrust and Railways Department all operated tips in this area, which by the 1930s provided a livelihood for fringe dwellers living in the shanty town of 'Dudley Flats'. The banks of the Yarra for about a mile downstream of Spencer Street were leased out to boiling-down works, bone mills and fellmongers from the 1850s to the 1880s when the Harbour Trust resumed the land for river widening.

Complete drainage and filling of the swamp was proposed from the 1860s due to it having become a vile cesspit of sewerage, stagnant pools, and refuse of every description. By the 1870s the grid of channels had been excavated, redirecting Moonee Ponds Creek and other drains into the Maribymong River opposite Footscray and creating a relatively flood free meadow. The area was then leased to dairymen for grazing milk cows and became a major source of milk for the city. A notice from the Lands Department in 188 1, called for Tenders for grazing quiet milch cows on portions of West Melbourne Swamp... for the right to depasture from the 1st August 1881 to 31st July 1882, quiet milch cows, calves and yearlings only within the portions of West Melbourne Swamp ... 8

Further reclamation of the swamp was associated with the construction of the railway yards and gasworks. The first filling of the swamp occurred in 1854 with the construction of the Wiliamstown, Geelong and Mt. Alexander and Murray River Railways which had to-first negotiate the swamp land on route to a crossing of the Maribyrnong. The route took it over the northern edge of the swamp across a causeway and across the tongue of high land near the present Lloyd St Kensington requiring vast amounts of fill and ballast obtained from cuttings at North Melbourne and Kensington. The railway opened as far as Sunbury in 1859.

The new railway construction involved probably the greatest earth moving operation undertaken in the colony at that time. By 1863 the Swamp Road (later Dynon Rd.) had been constructed just south of the railway, and it too required substantial embankments across the northern edge of the swamp. 9

The gasworks was built on the bank of the river on flood-prone land in order to take advantage of transport and population factors. The City of Melbourne Gas and Coke Co. was founded on 28/8/1850 but construction was delayed until 1854-5 when work was carried out under Alex Kennedy Smith who was contracted as design manager. A special gasworks dock was excavated on the north side of the river in July 1854 and on 1/12/1854 the foundation stone

In October 1855 the 195 foot chimney stack was completed and a commemorative breakfast was held on top of the stack. Gas was turned on to Melbourne on Cew Years Day 1856.

Drainage of the swamp was tied to several larger issues being canvassed in Melbourne in the 1850s 60s and 70s. One was the effect of flooding of the Yarra, another was the nuisance of noxious trades and their consequent effect of the health of Melbourne and pollution of its waterways, and the third was the provision of adequate port facilities.

A-Royal Commission was set up in 1873 to:

'enquire into the best means of making available the low lands adjacent to the western and southern sides of the Civ of Melbourne, situated on both banks of the River Yarra to suggest what portions of the above lands ought to be specifically reserved for canals, docks, wharves roads, tramways and other works of public utility.'

The commissioners reviewed three schemes for river and dock improvement, identified the causes of flooding on the banks of the river, assessed the cost, worth and practicality of draining and reclaiming the swampland, and took evidence of the navigation hazards.1°

[The Commissioners]... arrived at the conclusion that it would be inexpedient to incur the enormous expenditure requisite to render any portion of the low lying ground west of the railway eligible for the extension of the city. The West Melbourne Swamp should be enclosed and drained for ... recreation as a park or cultivation or grazing but not in any case for residences or as sites for manufactories' [and the] low land on both sides of the river... should be resented from sale'

Proposals for the use of the land included the reservation of:

'I00 acres adapted for residential purposes in connection with the extension westward of the City of Melbourne. The rendering of a large extent of ground fit for the establishment of manufactories and stores in the vicinity of he Yarra and of the proposed dock. [The remainder being] well adapted for growing ordinary garden produce, sugar beet, lucerne, grasses etc. and rendering salubrious a disgusting swamp as repulsive in its present aspect as it is pestilent in its influence, [Unreclaimed land was to be used by dairymen and] a considerable extent of-such ground could be reserved for a public park for West Melbourne. It wouM be the finest piece of grassland in any park in Melbourne.'

The basic recommendations of the Royal Commission were in fact carried out and remained the general approach to land use in the area for the next fifty years. The drainage scheme appears to have been successful and resulted in the provision of grazing ground for Melbourne's milk cows and parcels of reserved land were used for various public purposes such as the Victoria and Appleton Docks, Bubonic Sanatorium, Coal Canal apd railway yards, etc.

Fill from excavation of the docks was used to build up adjacent land and to form another road to Footscray. This followed the old north bank of the Yarra and was later replaced by New Footscray Road, following the present route. During 1892 Dudley Street was formed to drain the railway yards, as a sustenance scheme to alleviate the plight of local unemployed."

10 Low Lancb Commission, (Final) Repon VPP 3, 88, 1873, Introduction. 11 R.L. Greenaway, 'Historical Usage of the Lands ... of the West Melbourne Swamp .._ 10 28 of 300 Gary Vines By 19 12. an additional 470 acres of the West Melbourne Swamp on the east side of the Maribyrnong River had been reclaimed. This was carried out byrhe contractor Mr. M. Walsh at the cost of E83 an acre, using a centrifugal pump to move silt a distance of up to three quarters of a mile. This method of land reclamation appears to have been common in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Several contemporary photographs show large pipelines depositing silt, dredged from the river and docks, on to the swamp.12

The remnants of the drainage system constructed to drain the swamps can still be found. One of the main channels follows the south side of Dynon Road, where part has been planted out as a bird habitat. Elsewhere the drains are now underground and out of site. The construction of the Coal Canal altered the pattern of drainage and provided fill to raise the land either side. Dredging operations by the Harbour Trust and ash dumps from the railway locomotive depot provided further fill. Today the only remnant of the original land level is to be found adjacent to the Coal Canal.

Noxious Industry Because of its isolation from Melbourne and unattractive environment for building, the . land adjacent to the swamp and along the Yarra River and Moonee Ponds Creek became the preferred location of many noxious industries. Fellmongers, meat and meat by-product works, tanneries, boiling-down works, blood and bone desiccators, council rubbish depots and destructors.

As early as 1855 an abattoirs was constructed on the river bank below the Spencer Street Dock to supply meat to Melbourne. When established it was probably suitably removed from places of habitation and convenient to the existing river wharves for shipment of hides and tallow but it was the precursor of many meat and animal by-product works to take up riverbank leases downstream of Melbourne.

Beyond the gasworks several small sheds were constructed for the fellmongers where the wool was removed from sheep skins obtained from the abattoirs and washed. They included Brown's, Gollin & Co. W. Brown Junior and Walker. The wastes of course went into the river. Some of these works had primitive docks where small boats bringing skins and hides from the abattoirs and meatworks along the Yarra and Maribyrnong could be unloaded on the banks. &

Henry Walker conducted separate works for tallow melting, soap and candle making and stearine candle making Trom about 1856. One works was on the river below the gasworks and another facing the swamp in West Melbourne. In 1867 he was fined for polluting but later claimed to have renewed his plant and was no longer a nuisance. Eugene Ascherbergs boiling- down, bone dust and artificial manure establishment nearby was probably typical of the factories having several buildings of timber and iron without stone foundations of paved floors. Only one, where the machinery was installed had an asphalted floor while ofknsive drainage oozed over and through the soil and 'a quantity of filthy rubbish and a heap of hoofs was exposed on the ground without cover of any kind.' At J.B. Scott's'works men filled vats with sheep's heads from which the fumes were carried by pipe to the furnaces and the only odours came from the carbolic acid and ammonia used as a deodoriser. In 1873 there were 14 by- product works on the lower Yarra and Batman's Swamp employing 232 hands.I3

I2 Footscray Independent Xmas Supplement, December 1912, p. 13. l3 Low Lands Commissk, Evidence of Clement Hodgkinson, Henry Walker, Sergeant Fullarton, Appendices 2& 3. 11 29 of 300 Dockland Stadium Even in the 19th century there was considerable public concern about the pollution of the area and in some respects it was seen as the worst effected part of Melbourne taking the drainage of Moonee Ponds Creek which was lined with tanneries at Flemington. However the efforts to rid the more populated areas of noxious industry were not carried through to the Lower Yarra and Batman's Swamp which, if anything, became even more polluted, as industries located further downstream and moved from the eastern to western side of Melbourne. Several convictions were made against the boiling down works but it was really only with the compulsory removal of the works for river improvements that any change was effected. But still in the 1870s it was said that:

'at the very threshold of Melbourne immediately below the gasworks a boiling down establishment dimes a sickening stench and shocks the sight with a reeking mass of putrescence and mire where filthy swine and some scarcely less filthy human beings find congenial hubitation.14

Iq 1877 the Harbour Trust began to terminate or refuse renewal of leases and licences as a precursor to dredging and realignment of the river banks down-stream of the gasworks. l5

Industrial Expansion and Transport Development Like all other parts of Melbourne and Victoria, the Docklands area received an immense stimulus from the demands imposed by and the wealth created by the gold rushes of the 1850s and 60s.

Following the construction in the mid 1850s of the first rail line along the north and east edge of the swamp, the study area began to take on a transport oriented character. During the 1860s and 70s the rail system expanded with the subsequent need for additional sidings, yards, freight and passenger facilities and engine and carriage workshops.

From the 1870s, following the establishment of the Melbourne Harbour Trust, the Melbourne docks underwent the massive redevelopment to meet the needs of the fast growing irnportlexport industry.

Victoria Dock and the Coode Canal transformed the port and drew other transport and industrid facilities to the area. The engineering required for these services was closely liilked (although not always officially coordinated). Silt dredged and excavated from the docks, river and Coode Canal, was used to raise the level of the dock aprons and rail yards, while Batman's Hill is famous for having been levelled to create the rail yards. The last obvious remains of the hill were removed in about 1892.16

Other Government Facilities Nearly all of the surrounds of Batman's Swamp is and has always been crown land administered by the Victorian State Government. However some Commonweath facilities have been located in the area including a Bubonic Sanatorium, Customs and quarantine facilities and an airfield. The Melbourne City Council maintained a refuse destructor and sanitary depot (as did some other local counci1s)'as well as a stables, probably for its night soil and rubbish collection service.

Low Lands Commission, Appendix 6, City of Melbourne Health Committee report. Is J. Lack, 'Worst Smelbourne: Melbourne's Noxious Trades' in Davidson The Outcasts of Melbourne l6 Illustrated News I April 1892. Cited in Lewis, p. 45 12 30 of 300 Gary Vines One of the few residents on Coode Island was Bill Lemarquand who was brought up on the island because his father worked at a dock in the island repairing lighters (barges) The only other family were the Hobson's, the father of which was caretaker at the animal quarantine station. The Lemarquand household comprised parents four sons and one daughter and their house was made of ships' timbers, with the daughters bedroom created from a ship's cabin.

Because much of the study area has been historically a waste land, it has occasionally been occupied unofficially and illegally. Squatters camps of homeless and unemployed people have grown up during times of depression, particularly in the 1890s and 1930s. The squatters camps were transitory affairs built of old timber and corrugated iron, even lino was used to provide shelter. These humpies were located on the south end of Dudley Street in an area known as Dudley flats in the 1930s. Periodic raids by police and possibly Harbour Trust officers moved the people out and demolished the huts. Their occupants were the unemployed and underemployed labourers used by the shipping agents to fulfil peak demands for labour but otherwise left to scavenge an existence as best they could. Even today it is possible to find the occasional humpies built by the homeless on the waste land of the port.

The worst pollution of the swamp and river came from the boiling-down works and bone mills located on the north bank of the Yarra. Henry Walker had the largest of these works and although his was one of the better operated works, blood and offal was allowed to run over the ground from the boiling down vats and piles of bones left in the open air."

The North Melbourne Pottery was located on Laurens St. backing onto the swamp while other factories and warehouses were constructed on the high ground of West Melbourne and the small tongue of land around Lloyd St Kensington. The proximity of the main rail lines to the north and west of the state made this the preferred location for flour mills (Kimpton, Brunton, Gillespie, Minnifie) and wool stores, (New Zealan'd Loan and Mercantile, Younghusband, Goldsborough Mort),l*

As the site of Melbourne's major railway terminus, Spencer Street grew to accommodate a. vast array of specialised freight facilities. The Surviving No 2 Goods Shed (previously known as A Shed and No 3 Goods Shed), represents the apex of the yard's history, as well as the high standard of nineteenth century railway architecture. Between Spencer Street and Footscray Road, a number of different platforms and sheds were erected and demolished over the -140 .- years of the yard's history.

The initial complex of buildings were all hard up against Spencer Street on a 50 acre site to the north of Batman's Hill, although a larger area had been reserved for the terminus, extending westward to about two thirds of the way to the present Footscray Road. In 1870-7 1 the No 1 Goods Shed was erected immediately west of the existing station and extending across Batman's Hill, An additional goods platform was added at an oblique angle north of the shed in 1877 which formed the future alignment of much of the yard in the following decades. The Exhibition Goods Shed was added in 1881 using a section of the Melbourne International Exhibition pavilions, followed by the surviving 1889 No 2 (A Shed), the Dairy Produce Shed of 1890 and No 4 Goods Shed of 1897-8. By the turn of the century the area between Spencer Street and Cowper street was covered with buildings as far north as a line through Bourke Street. Further railway building was then confined the north east comer of the yards (with workshops, offices and amenities buildings), and the western edge (with the Potato Platform and Chaff Platform, both of 1925).'9

Dockland Stadium Because of the fall of the land to the west, and the progressive development of the rail yards, they were created on several levels, stepping down to the west. Upgrading during the twentieth century brought about further filling with the most substantial changes being associated with the construction of the automatic hump shunting yard and standard rail loop in the late 1960s.

The location of the swamp and difficulty of filling or flood-proofing it, resulted in a large tract of land remaining unused well into the twentieth century. By the 1950~~changes in goods handling on the railways and docks meant that large land areas were required for storing and trans-shipment of cargoes. Reclaiming the swamplands finally became an economic proposition with the development of the rail yards, container terminals, new docks and warehousing. The Victoria Dock was the first major facility to be constructed in the area of the swamp. It was completed in 1906 and joined in the 1920s by the Appleton Dock to the west. The next major development was the Swanston Dock, begun in the 1950s and onIy achieving its projected size in the last few years. The swamps also provided land for the Melbourne fish and wholesale markets when the city sites became inadequate.20

Ward et a1 14 32 of 300 Gary Vines

Description of Site The site of the Docklands Stadium is located on part of the Spencer Street Railway Yards between the still active railway lines immediately west of Spencer Street Station, and Footscray Road. The rail yards are built on fill over what was originally a low flood prone area west of the Melbourne CBD. The site is on the eastern side of Batman's or West Melbourne Swamp and north west of the higher ground of Batman's Hill. The north and south boundaries of the Stadium site are marked by lines extending along the south side of Lonsdale Street and the north side ofBourke Street respectively.

While the yards are generally flat, there are two major changes of level, historically associated with the progressive development of the yards. The first of these runs parallel with and on the east side of the No 3 Goods Shed and marks the western boundary of the pre 1880 rail yards which were built on the high ground north of Batman's Hill, and on the hill itself as it was levelled. The embankment along the edge of this area is a dominant feature to the south with a concrete block retaining wall running the length of the surviving goods shed. The lower area began to be used in after the 188Os, following the construction of the No 3 Goods Shed on land reclaimed from the swamp margins. The difference in level is as much as five metres reflecting the considerable rise to Batman's Hill.

The second change in level occurs near the western edge of the site and is much less dramatic. This reflects the 1920s expansion of the yards with the erection of the Potato and Chaff sheds and additional shunting lines. The drop is only one or two metres and brings the level down to that of Footscray Road, about 2 metres above sea level. While the goods sheds (surviving and demolished) all finished to the south of the stadium site, the various track levels which led to them extended a considerable distance northward to provide the necessary gradual approach slope.

Prior to the commencement of the Stadium excavations the entire area was covered with rail sidings. A mixture of timber and concrete sleepers were in use, lying on rock ballast up to one metre thick. Prior to commencement of excavations (and before I first inspected the site as part of the watching brief) all the rails and most of the sleepers had been removed by contractors, and the ballast had been lifted and stockpiled to the north of the site for future use _. during construction.

Also during the initial phase of the stadium construction, various retaining walls built of concrete or steel rails with concrete or timber infills, were demolished and any other structures such as signal masts, overhead gantries, etc. were removed. As a consequence there were no surviving above ground artefacts on the site when the watching brief commenced. However, immediately north and south of the stadium site, both buildings and rail lines survive to indicate the former arrangement of the yards. Such features included the remnant of the Exhibition Goods Shed, the No 3 shed, the No 4 shed, and to the north most of the tracKS leading to the Automatic Hump Shunting yard. A few tracks are currently being maintained along the western perimeter of the site to provide rail access to the surviving railway goods facilities, as well as for access to the Webb Dock Goods Line.

Method The primary purpose of the archaeological investigation was to determine the extent of the surviving cultural material relating to former structures and features of the Spencer Street Railway Yards or prior occupation of the site, and to record any artefacts or other archaeological features which may have been exposed by the construction works on the site.

The archaeological investigation of the Docklands Stadium was carried out as a “watching brief’ during the excavation works for footings and foundations. This has meant that the consultant was involved in periodic inspections of the excavation in progress. The total area excavated amounted to approximately 75,000 square metres, varying in depth up to five metres deep. The excavation takes to form of an oval with battered sides measuring approximately 250 metres east-west by 300 metres north south.

While there was no previous indication of either Aboriginal or post contact archaeological remairis having been identified on the site, other studies had indicated the potential for such remains. Therefore, prior to undertaking the watching brief, notification of archaeological survey forms were submitted to Heritage Services Branch, Aboriginal Affairs Victoria and Heritage Victoria. As their were no archaeological sites already recorded on either of these organisation’s sites registers, it was determined that a separate excavation permit was unnecessary.

Inspection of the excavation was carried out at intervals of approximately one week over a period of six weeks when the major bulk excavation work was being carried out, commencing in October 1997. Additional inspections were carried out when unusual features were identified by the site foreman Michael Crestani. These were at approximately monthly intervals. A final inspection was undertaken during the piling operations and at the completion of the excavation in May 1998.

Previous Work The present study was commissioned following the identification of potential for archaeological evidence in the area. Archaeological Assessments for the City Link freeway and the Docklands area had identified the general area around Batman’s Swamp and Batmads Hill as having high cultural significance for both Aboriginal and European occupation.*I These studies did not specifically identdj the stadium site as having historical or archaeological significance. However, the historical background provided in the reports indicated that the area had a complex history and was historically associated with the major railway facility in Victoria. The consultant reviewed the previous studies and carried out further historical research. From this a strategy for investigation was developed which tied in with the construction work program.

Watching Brief The procedure and method used during the watching brief was to some extent dependent on the nature and timing of construction works. On the basis of the construction program, the following strategy was developed:

1 . At the time of being commissioned to do the study an initial non-intrusive survey of the effected area was carried out to identify potential for the survival of archaeological evidence.

Ward et. al. 1991, Vines, G.Dudley Flats Archaeological Assesment. City Link Authority. 1998; Du Cros & Associates, Western Link Archaeological Survey, VicRoads 1990. 17 35 of 300 Dockland Stadium This was directed at determining the likely preservation of undisturbed original ground surfaces, structures and o?her archaeological relics. This process also attempted to identify the depth or level of any potential archaeological layers (ie. the ground surface at the time of prior occupation may have been buried under more recent fill) and an attempt to determine the depth of this was required. As most of the site had already been cleared and there were almost no surface features visible, the core sampling canied out by the construction contractors was also examined to assist in this process.

2. Upon finalisation of construction plans, the archaeologist determined the likelihood and location of archaeological deposits that may be effected. Historical Plans indicated possible structures near the southern and western edges of the stadium site, such as signal boxes, the former chaff platforms, shunters cabin and gangers shed. However, as these would all have had shallow foundations, any evidence of them was probably already removed.

3. During site preparation, the archaeologist was present at the commencement of clearing, levelling, etc. This was only for short periods as only the upper levels which were deemed to be sensitive.

4. The watching brief was conducted during various stages of the construction. For example, excavation for the main arena (excavated to between 1 and 4 metres below the existing soil level) pile capping, excavation of service trenches, road construction, etc. The liaison person with Baulderstone Hornibrook (Michael Crestani) also contacted the archaeologist when any unusual features were revealed during the excavation, such as the old brick barrel drain which ran under the site.

5. The site was examined during various stages of construction and the exposed features were

.# photographed and recorded. A number of pile caps were examined extending back about 150 metres either side of the creek. The locations of the pile caps that were examined and other features of the excavation are shown in Figure 2.

The Docklands Stadium construction has involved a large area excavation to obtain appropriate levels with deep surface-driven piling supporting the foundations and superstructure. Apart from the arena itself and the main drainage trench, only shallow pile caps and service trenches were excavated. As a consequence of this construction method, the sub- surface deposits were exposed briefly during the pile cap and service excavations, and then filled once the concrete pile caps have been poured or pipes laid.

Y Results The main findings of the watching brief have been in the identification of the phases of land reclamation and levelling associated with the progressive construction of the Spencer Street Railway goods yards. The fill material shows clearly the large amount of earthworks carried out and the consequent changes in the landscape in the area, as well as the associated works which produced the material - namely the removal of Batman's Hill, and excavation of silt from Victoria Dock and other river dredging. However, there was very little else of a structural nature which was revealed in the excavations, apart from the main brick barrel drain.

This is not to say that there was no cultural material exposed. As the area was progressively reclaimed it appears to have been used as an informal tip. It was also more systematically used to dispose of large quantities of waste from the railways themselves, including coke ash raked out of the locomotives fire boxes, discarded rails and sleepers, buildiqg rubble, and the inevitable rubbish of human occupation.

The core samples and deeper service trenches showed a consistent level of the original . (buried) ground surface, ranging from six metres below present levels in the east of the site to about two-to three metres at the western end. This original ground level is recognisable by a black humus-rich layer only a few centimetres thick overlaying dark mottled silt and clay. This latter material graduates within a narrow zone 300 to 500 mm. thick, to the consistent grey Coode Island Silt which underlies most of the docklands area. The original soil layer was noted to lie at about one metre above sea level near Footscray Road, sloping gradually upward to the east. This corresponds with what is known of the original landscape of the area prior to the constructing the rail yards (see environmental history above).

A generalised idea of the stratigraphy through the site was obtained by examining the cross sections shown in the sides of the pile cap excavations, and deeper trenches. The stratigraphy is depicted schematically in figure 3 which shows lenses of fill material over a natural soil profile dipping to the west from a high point in the south east of the site. (It should be noted that this is in part conjecture, because only a small total area of the excavations reached the depth of the original soil layer.)

A larger proportion of rubble and artefact material is found towards Footscray Road. This is again reasonably consistent with the known history of land reclamation of the site and the dumping of domestic and other industrial refuse would more likely to have occurred close to the publicly accessible roads (ie apart from material dumped by the railways) .

Fill Some distinctive areas of fill were identified that can be associated (with some confidence) with particular phases of reclamation of the area. These are the decayed basaltic clays of Batman's Hill, and the fine grey Coode Island Silt from the Victoria Dock excavation. Some large areas of both df these deposits were noted, particularly in the south east part of the study area, that is, closest to Batman's Hill, and presumably part of the earliest reclamation in the area. Other large deposits were found along the eastern edge of the excavation, again suggesting this material was brought here during the 1880s when the yards were being enlarged and Victoria Dock was being excavated.

The other main components of the fill appeared to be brick rubble, blocks of brick masonry and bluestone and coke ash. The brick and stone was probably partly from demolished railway buildings which once stood within thegoods yards, or adjacent railway sites. Possible

19 37 of 300 Dockland Stadium candidates, based on the type of masonry (bichrome and polychrome cream, cream red and brown bricks including “Hawthorn” browns, very large rock-fated bluestone blocks typical of foundation stones, and intact sections up to 900mm thick) include the former No 1 Goods Shed of 1870, parts of the north gable wall of the No 3 Goods Shed, early goods sheds from near Spencer Street and Latrobe Street, and possibly also the North Melbourne locomotive depot.

The coke ash is clearly from raking out coal-fired locomotives. This would have been done near the Locomotive Depot, as well as in various open air locations. By the turn of the century, the hundreds of locomotives working from the yards were producing so much ash that it had to

* be carted by special rail lines to be dumped at the edge of Batman’s Swamp. Much of the area between Dudley Street and Footscray Road was reclaimed in this way. The ash noted in the excavations was in thin lenses sandwiched between other types of fill. In some cases it was also mixed with ballast stones, suggesting that earlier levels of the tracks were buried. The presence of a considerable number of rails and sleepers also suggests this.

Barrel Drain The only major structure noted during the watching brief was a brick barrel drain which ran north-south across the site at the base of the main arena excavation. The top of the drain was therefore at about 1.8 metres above sea level. The drain is ovoid in section, constructed of a double skin (9 inch) brick wall of un-named, machine-made red bricks. The drain measures about 1400mm in height and 1200 mm wide. The drain is reinforced by a brick foundation bed about 1800mm wide rising to about one third the height of the drain.

This drain was the main outlet for internal drainage from the railway yards. The section examined falls from the south east to a point near the northern edge of the stadium excavation. Plans of the site show that another branch of this drain falls from the north-east and joins at a junction near the northern edge of the stadium then heads westward to discharge into Victoria Dock.

R eco m'mend a t io ns Y It is unlikely that any further substantial excavation is will occur in the immediate area of the Docklands Stadium. Even if such were to occur, the present watching brief has shown that there is very little in the way of archaeological evidence to be observed under the former rail yards. The only possible exception to this would be in the area to the south east on the ground once comprising Batman's Hill. This is outside of the present study area, but as the research for this study has shown, this area to have been significant in the culhhal heritage of Victoria. It is, therefore worth noting the potential here.

No further archaeological investigation is deemed necessary within the area of the Docklands Stadium. However, should disturbance of other areas in the Batman's Hill area be carried out as part of any other development project in the area, then this should be preceded by an appropriate archaeological assessment.

- Victoria Stadium development - Melbourne Docklands Archaeological Assessment

This is to confirm that Gary Vines of Melbourne’s Living Museum of the West will be .I conducting a watching brief over the excavation works for the Docklands Stadium on behalf of Baulderstone Hornibrook.

In order to fulfil the requirements of the Archaeological and Aboriginal Relics Act, and Heritage Act, I have submitted “Form D‘s” or notification of an intention to conduct and archaeological ._ survey to the Heritage Services Branch, Aboriginal Affairs Victoria, and Heritage Victoria. I have also had discussions with Stewart Simmons at AAV and Jane Harrington at Heritage Victoria regarding the projects and informing them of what is intended as far as the archaeological assessment.

The scope of the works involves assessing the likelihood of the presence or survival of any historical or archaeological relics, assessing the potential significance of any such relicz, and periodically monitoring the excavation works to determine the nature of the material being removed or exposed. To this end I have so far inspected the site Following the commencement of earthworks. Further inspections will be undertaken on a weekly basis (or more often if unsuspected or unusual evidence is unearthed), for as long as the excavations are underway, and a final report will be prepared detailing the results of the investigation. The following is a brief report on the first inspection of the site.

w Evidence from the excavation as of 10 October 1997 At the time of my first inspection of the sites, about 1/4 of the proposed excavation had been completed, down to the approximate final depth of 2 metres above sea level. This has involved an excavation below the present ground level of between three and five metres deep. So far the visible evidence suggests that the stadium excavations are entirely in fill which has been deposited as part of the construction of the Spencer Street Railway Yards. This fill comprises track ballast, Coode Island Silt (probably dredged from the Yarra, Victoria Dock or other docks), Silurian Sediments, (possibly including material excavated from Batman’s Hill), *

66 of 300 and other soil and rock, including large bluestone blocks. There is also scattered through the fill, but not in any discernible pattern, large blocks of bluestone and brick masonry, evidently from demolished buildings. - The size nature and location of these blocks suggest they may have come from either the demolished northern end of the “A” Goods Shed, The former North Melbourne Locomotive Depot, or Bridges and Culverts associated with the earlier configurations of the Railway Yards. .:. These structures were demolished around the same time that the railway goods yards underwent a major redesign and reconstruction, with the installation of the West Melbourne Hump Shunting Yard in the 1970s. Examination of historical documents and maps of the area suggests that the site has been used almost excessively for railway shunting yards from the late nineteenth century. Before this it .. was low marshy ground at the edge of Batman’s Swamp. Major development in the area 5 occurred in the late 1850s with the erection of the Government Railway Terminus at Spencer --+ Street. The buildings and lines were to the east of the Stadium site near the present Spencer Street Station. In the 188Os, the John Coode Scheme for the Port of Melbourne saw the dredging *. . of Victoria Dock and the Coode Canal, and the expansion of the railway yards using dredged .- spoil and excavated material from.Batman’s Hill to level the area for extensive railway yards. .. - These yards were modified at various times, with the large major alterations taking place when . -... : the Stagdard Gauge overpass and Hump Shunting yards were completed in the 1970s. In the more recent years, the railway goods facilities have progressively shut down and part of the yards used for car parking.

More detailed information on the history and physical nature of the site will be provided in the .-: final report on the archaeological assessment.

The soils encountered during the sampling program at the stadium included:

a mixture of fill types containing a variety of foreign materials; and silty clay (Coode Island silt).

There were not any different materials encountered than those described in detail in the Golder Associates geotechnical and environmental assessment reports (References 1 - 4). For this reason an abbreviated sample documentation system was used to log the material types at each of the sampling locations. The logs for all of the samples collected by BHPL are included in this appendix.

Classification of Soil in Northeast Stockpile

There is approximately 10,000 m3 of soil stockpiled in the north east comer of the site. This material was placed there during initial bulk earthworks by Cooks Construction for future use if required. This material was thought to be of ‘better’ quality compared to what was expected for the rest of the site. Aside from some rails, sleepers and a small amount of pipe, the amount of rubble was minimal. The origin of the soil is shown as the highlighted area in the attached map and was verified from the material tracking information supplied by Cooks Construction.

Soil test data for the sample points which fall within the area was extracted from the assessment carried out by Golder Associates prior to commencement of the project. Samples were collected from 16 locations at several depths. A total of 15 composite samples were analysed and are summarised in the attached table.

Statistical analysis of the results was undertaken with the results also included in the table. The mean and 95% upper confidence limits for all analytes is below the EPA criteria for fill material except for the 95% UCL for copper which is marginally above. The soil in the stockpile is therefore classified as Fill Material and may be used as required on or off site.

However due to the possibility of small isolated pockets of contaminated material, the soil should not be disposed for a sensitive land use purpose. It is suitable for commercial and industrial use or in open space or landscaping.

Attention: iMr R .McClellan - Manager Operations, Yarra Region

Dear Sir

RE: VICTORIA ST.4DTZM - PRELIMINARY EARTHWORKS OFFSITE DISPOSAL OF INSITU MATE~UALS

Thank you for meeting with us last Friday and discussing the above subject. We found it most informative and helpful in the planning of the earthworks program required prepartory to the construction of Victoria Stadium. Please frnd attached our proposed remediation plan for the earthworks. It should be noted that this plan will be incorporated into Appendix D of our Environmental Management Plan and as such addresses the major environmental issues in regard to excavation. Specific work instructions and method statements will be developed in conjunction with the earthworks sub-contractor for the project.

Approximately 160,000 m' (based on in situ volumes) of material will be required to be excavated. There is limited potential for reuse of material within the project however we are exploring the possibility of using 50,000 m' to build up an adjacent area which is proposed to be used for public access.

We therefore plan to dispose of the bulk of the material as solid inert waste to a licensed landfill. We understand that we do not need formal approval from the EPA to dispose of solid inert waste. However we would appreciate your review and comments on the -- remediation plan to ensure it is consistent with our discussions and meets all EPA guidelines.

We also enclose a draft copy of the Project Environmental Management Plan. This plan is currently under revision to incorporate site specific procedures, and we would also appreciate any comments on this plan prior to fmalisation.

Your prompt attention would be greatly appreciated as the timing of our schedule is tight. If you have any questions regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to contact Mike Side11 on -04.1 8-39365.1.-

Yours fiifiiifiillr Baulderstone Hornibrook p,Lty

Gra&T-m-Ca-tIam Proiect Director - Victoria Stadium

99 of 300 Victoria Stadium - Draft Remediation Plan

1.O I3TRODUCTION

The remediation Plan was developed from a detailed review of information in the contamination assessment report by Golder Associates including discussions with the staff who carried out the field work.

The information suggests that the Stadium site is filled to depths of over 3 metres. The field logs in the report indicate that there is a significant amount of rubble in the fill including - concrete. bricks, bluestone, wood and metal. The soil test results in the Golder report indicate that the site contains some contamination with chemicals which will effect offsite transport and disposal.

The overall goal is to prepare the site in a manner that would enable an Environmental Audit to be undertaken by an approved EPA Auditor resulting in a Statement of Audit for the proposed end use of the site as a Stadium.

-- This document presents the outline of the Remediation Plan for the site. This document will be expanded in conjunction with the earthworks sub-contractor to include specific procedures for excavation, stockpiling, reuse, testing and offsite disposal.

2.0 SITE EXCAVATION

The Golder test pit logs indicate that the site can be divided vertically into three horizons; surface, fill and natural. The proposed excavation plan is to a final surface level of RL 12.5. This means that the excavation will not be into the natural material although there is an area of silty clay which is described as disturbed natural arising from deposits of dredged material.

The fate of the material excavated may fall into the following scenarios.

0 reuse of material on site;

-_ 0 disposal of material which meets EPA Fill Material criteria (EPA Bulletin 448, Sept 1995); and

0 disposal of contaminated soil (both low level and prescribed waste).

2.1 Fill Classification

The presence of significant amounts of ‘foreign’ materials in the fill gives the appearance of soil contamination. However, the results in the Golder report indicate that the site is only

~ lightly which may effect offsite transport and disposal. These contambated_wi&-chemjcals ~ ~ ~ ------____ - results are considered sufficient to determine disposal requirements for the fill. --~ ~ -_ -~ -~ __- ~-- __ ~ - The site is going to be bulk excavated, therefore the average of the results is considered the critical statistic in determining the classification of the fiil for offsite disposal.

100 of 300 Based on the statistics from the report. the only contaminant above Fill Material Criteria is Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (P.4Hs). With the, proximity of the former West Melbourne Gas Works it is possible that tar was previously used on the site to seal parts of the surface. The average PAH for the site is reported to be approximately 24 mag compared to the criteria of20 mg/kg for Fill Material.

The highest PAH contamination is found along Footscray Road below the retaining wall (the 3 highest results of I 137, 263 and 95 mg/kg were in this area). The surface level of this area is approximately =+LO and as such will require minimal excavation. It is therefore proposed to treat the material excavated from this area separately.

Statistical analysis was therefore carried separately by dividing the site into two parts, above and below the retaining wall as shown in Figure 1. The results are summarised in Table 1.

2.1.1 North of Retaining Wall

By excluding the area south of the retaining wall the average for the rest of the site for total PAHs drops to 1 1.1 mgkg, well below Fill Material criteria. The other contaminants are:

0 Heavy metal where there are individual samples above Fill Material criteria, however the . _.~ averages are below except for copper at 104 mag versus cntena of-I-OO-mg’kg7- -- --Leachabilitytests-have-shownthat-the-copper-is-not-i - -- --*--

0 Petroleum hydrocarbons were found at low concentrations at about half the locations tested with only one sample marginally above Fill Material criteria (1 100 m_@g versus 1000 mgkg). -- ~~ ~~~~~ . -. ~._ --~ ~ ~ - - ___ -- ~ __~~..

101 of 300 Based on the statistics the material b be excavated from north of the retaining wall is classified as Fill Material. However. it is expected however, that there will be small areas where the soil contamination will be present. This combined with the large quantities of rubble means the material is unsuitable for unrestricted disposal. BH therefore plans to send the bulk of this material offsite as solid inert waste (see Section 3.1).

It is also possible that there will isolable areas where the fill will be classified as Low Level Contaminated Soil (LLCS) with the possibility of a minor amount of Prescribed Waste (PW). This will be caused by pockets of hydrocarbons and PAHs and will be obvious by their odour. These areas would be isolated to stockpiles for further testing, if required, and subsequent disposal (see Section 2.3). - 2.13 South of the Retaining Wall

The material south of the retaining wall appears to be different in chemical nature to that to the north. This is evidenced by:

0 A significant difference in soil acidity with this area being 2 unit more acidic;

0 Higher PAHs with an average of 122 mgkg total.

0 Hydrocarbons present with lighter fractions.

Based on the statistical analysis, this area will be classified as LLCS. However it is likely that there will some areas with obviously highly contaminated which will require disposal as Prescribed Waste.

2.2 Reuse

There is limited potential for reuse of material within the project however we are exploring the possibility of using 50,000 m3 to build up an adjacent area which is proposed to be used for public access.

2.2.1 Reuse During Construction

The surface of the site consists mainly of sealed and paved areas, gravel and rail ballast. It is indicated in the Golder Report that the surface materials are generally free of chemical contamination. There is also reported to be significant amounts of rubble in the fill material below the surface.

Gravel and ballast material will be stockpiled for reuse for the construction of haul roads and hardstand areas for the piling rigs. Other hard materials such as bricks, concrete and bluestone may also be reused on site in a similar manner or for filling of ‘soft’ spots.

-~--__ There is the potentiZl-fo7thFFeGie 0-f @$iElmatel~5;000X3-5fEZtFri5l-t5EiiSFthiacF levels in areas within the Stadium leased land. There is also the potential to reuse 50,000 m3 to raise the level of the proposed public access area leading from Spencer Street into the Stadium area. This is not part of the project and requires agreement with Docklands .Authority_

The fill material reused other than ,gravel and ballast will be selected from the better

102 of 300 3. 2.2.3 Recycle

The preference for matenal not reused is to recycle and the earthworks sub-contractor will be encouraged to use this form of disposal for appropriate materials. The remainder of the material will be disposed offsite as solid inert waste

2.3 Stockpiles

Stockpiling of materials will be used for:

0 material to be reused on site such as ,gravel and ballast;

0 rubble for recycling such as concrete, bricks and bluestone; and

0 contaminated soil for disposal.

2.3.1 Stockpiles for Reuse and Recycle

The first two categories will not require any special procedures other than to minimise dust generation during tipping and shaping the stockpiles. The stockpiles will be located at convenient locations for reuse or offsite transport.

23.2 Contaminated Soil Stockpiles

The preference during earthworks is to be able to excavate and directly dispose of material. However stockpiling may be undertaken where the small quantities contaminated soil are uncovered which are odorous or visually contaminated. The management of this material will be facilitated by the establishment of soil stockpile areas at strategic locations on the site.

The stockpile areas would be used where the material could not be left in the vicinity of the excavation for physical or contamination reasons. The soil in the stockpile can then be disposed appropriatly according to EPA guidelines. The areas used for the storage of contaminated soil will be designed to ensure that there is limited potential for health or environmental problems. The final procedure for stockpile preparation will be worked out with the earthworks subcontractor and will include the following:

0 Location - The locations should also take advantage of easy access and natural contours to minimise erosion and prevent runoff.

0 Base Preparation - The base should be flat and compacted with a layer of material which can be removed after disposal of the contaminated soil. The better the base the less base material that will require removal. A layer of geofabric material or crushed rock would be -s.ui_table.

~~ 0 Runo~-Th-e-m-ain-objective-is-to-prevent-contamination-from-ente~g-the-en~o~ent-by-. controlling runoff. This will be accomplished by preparing an area which has runoff control such as having a bund around the area with a small gradient ending in a trench and/or pit which will act as a trap for the silt.

103 of 300 Control of Fehicles - Vehicular control should be such that spread of potentially contaminated materials by spillage or on truck tyres is minimised. Transfer trucks should not drive on contaminated stockpiles and the tracks of machines used in shaping and loading stockpiles should be cleaned before leaving the area.

Dint Control - Minimisation of dust by compaction of stockpiles and watering where necessary.

3.0 DISPOSAL METHODS

- Disposal of material during earthworks will be divided into three categories solid inert waste, low level contaminated soil and prescribed waste according to €PA Information Bulletin 448, 1995.

3.1 Solid Inert Waste

As discussed earlier most of the material north of the retaining wall will be classified as solid inert waste and will form the.bulk of the 160,000 m3 which is anticipated to be removed. This material will be disposed to landfills licensed to accept solid inert waste. Selection of one or several landfills will be made in conjunction with the earthworks sub-contractor and records kept of volumes and destinations.

3.2 Low Level Contaminated Soil The area south of the retaining wall is classified as LLCS for disposal purposes. An application for disposal will be prepared by BH as soon as final design specifications are known which specify the excavation volume.

Further material from stockpiles may require disposal as LLCS during the project. The stockpiles will be tested to satisfy the EPA that contaminant and elutriable fractions meet criteria for disposal.

Disposal of LLCS will be in covered trucks to landfills licensed to receive LLCS.

3.3 Prescribed Waste

It is anticipated that there will only be a minor mount of Prescribed Waste on the site. This will mostly be associated with gas works tar (PAHs) and fuel and oil spills. Information on the type and level of contamination will be supplied to a landfill licensed to accept prescribed waste to ensure that it meets their license conditions. Currently there are only 2 suitable licensed landfills, Cleanaway at Tullamarine and BFI at Lyndhurst.

Disposal of prescribed waste will be in licensed trucks and requires EPA Waste Transport Certificates to be filled out. __ -4.O--~RO.CED-~~S-~~-~G

Detailed site specific method statements covering all aspects of handling and disposal of soil and rubble for the project will be developed by BH.

104 of 300 - ......

4.1 Procedures

A series of work instructions and method statements connected with site remediation will be developed in conjunction with the earthworks sub-contractor as appendices to the Environmental Management Plan (EMP). These procedures will cover:

0 Excavation of contaminated soil;

0 Storage and stockpiling of materials;

- 0 Separation of rubble;

0 Material tracking; and

0 Sampling and testing of soil including final site validation requirements.

The EMF also includes other procedures to ensure that the earthworks do not adversely impact on air and water. .. .. 4.2 Health and Safety

There are some health and safety aspects that need to be considered when handling materials with the contaminants found on the Stadium. A section of the site Occupational Health and Safety Plan will be prepared for the construction and utility workers who may be exposed to contaminants during their normal duties. Procedures will be developed for specific jobs once construction plans are fmalised.

4.3 Supervision

The organisation of project will include suitable management personnel to ensure the implementation of the Em. This will include specialist environmental consultants to supervise the major earthworks part of the project. The consultants will work directly with the engineers, foremen and operators to optimise the reuse and recycle of suitable materials during the earthworks pro,oram.

4.4 Training

The success of the remediation program will rely heavily on the operators in the field. To ensure the achievement of these goals a training program will be developed so that the operators are familiar with the various indications of contamination that are likely to be found on the site.

Dear Mr. Cottam,

VICTORIA STADIUM - CONTAMINATED SOIL MANACiCiviENT

Thank you for your letter of 8 September 1997, enclosing draft plans for contaminated soil management and projcct enviroriental management. This reply only covcrs your proposcd soil disposal program. A scparatc rcply commenting on the broadcr environmental managcmcnt plan will bc forwarded ncxt weck.

The approach adopted to the classification, iiiaiiageineiit and disposal of soil in the draft remediation plan is acccptablc to EPA. Clcar records will need to be kept to provide an audit trail for soil movement. 'l'hc dctails of appropriatc record keeping und the list cjf landfills receiving soil from the Victoria Stadium site can bc sorted out via an on-site meeting ncxt week.

One point that docs nccd to bc clarified is the basis for classifying the soil contamination statu.. for this site. Normally EPA would use the %%le UCL to dcfinc the average contaminant conccntratioii in any particular soil strata. Howevcr, given the presencc of building rubble throughout the soil profilc, the non elutriable nature of the contaminants, the minor excccdences ofthe clean fill criteria at the 95%1e level *adyonr qyccment to dispose of all soils leaving the site as at least solid incrt wale ai an EPA lictnscd Idfill, EPA agrees to the use ofmem values for classifying the soils at this particular site. A mean of 104 niglkg for copper versus a clean lil! criteria of lOOmg/kE is within not significant in these circumstances (espccially when analytical error is also factored in) and !1c11cesoils north of the retaining wall may be disposed of as solid incrt waste.

Dear Sir,

INTRODUCTION

Golder Associates Pty Ltd has installed res at the Victorian Stadium site, Docklands, Victoria. The installation was completed in accordance with our proposal P97234b dated October 14, 1997. The installation details together with the soil profile are presented in this report.

The boreholes were located approximately at the centre of each side of the stadium beyond the excavation area as instructed by Michael Crestani from Baulderstone Hornibrook Pty Ltd. The approximate locations are given on the Site Plan, Drawing 247D01. Relative RL’s were measured using Madigan Surveying benchmarks.

DRILLING & INSTALLATION DETAILS

I The drilling was performed on November 5 and November 6, 1997. It involved the drilling of four 100 mm diameter boreholes using a Gemco HM12 rotary drilling rig operated by a licensed water bore driller. The boreholes were advanced using augers pressure cleaned prior to each borehole to avoid cross contamination. The borehole logsheets, GWOl to GW04, indicating the soil profile encountered have been attached together with the Method of Soil Classification and Notes and Abbreviations used in the preparation of the reports.

The boreholes were drilled to at least one metre below the water table as observed during the drilling. Each borehole was then left open for up to 0.5 hr to make a measurement of the groundwater level. When this was determined, the monitoring bore was installed. The installation details are given on Drawing 247D02.

Approximately one hour after installation, monitoring bores GWO1, GW02 and GW04 were bailed empty of water using a cleaned stainless steel bailer. Due to the slow inflow of water fimher development was postponed. Borehole GW03 had a larger inflow and so three well volumes were removed. Further development was conducted on November 11, 1997. Monitoring bores GW02 and GW04 were bailed dry several times using a washed stainless i

- RE: VICTORIA STADIUM - GROUNDWATERSAMPLING

Dear Sir,

1.0 INTRODUCTION

Golder Associates Pty Ltd installed four groundwater monitoring bores at the Victoria Stadium site, Docklands, Victoria on November 5 and November 6, 1997. Installation details were reported in our letter dated November 20, 1997 (Ref No. 97612247/02). This letter presents the results from the first round of groundwater sampling from these bores. The installation and sampling was completed in accordance with our proposal P97234b dated October 14, 1997,

Descriptions of the materials encountered in the bores are presented in the Reports of Boreholes GWOl to GW04 presented in Appendix A. The Method of Soil Classification together with the Notes and Abbreviations used in the preparation of the reports are also included.

2.0 SAMPLING METHOD

The groundwater sampling was performed on November 17, 1997

Monitoring bores GW02 and GW04 were purged and sampled using a 0.5 litre stainless steel bailer that had been washed using a phosphate free detergent, tap water and finally distilled water. Both of these bores were bailed dry of water immediately prior to sampling.

Monitoring bores GWOl and GW03 were purged and sampled using a 12 V down hole pump that had been washed using a phosphate free detergent, tap water and finally distilled water. Bore GWOl was pumped dry of water hmediately prior to sampling. Bore GW03 had 100 Litres of water removed immediately prior to sampling.

Specially prepared sample bottles supplied by WSL Consultants Pty Ltd were used to hold the water needed for testing. The water taken to be tested for the presence of metals was filtered in the field using a 0.45p.m filter.

Water sampled from each bore was tested in the field for pH, Temperature, Dissolved Oxygen, Conductivity and salinity. The results are shown in Table 1.

For the purpose of calculatik the laboratory method detection limit has been used for resuk that have been reported as below the labbratory method detection limit

The data indicate that there are a number of potential exceedences of the criteria for protection of marine ecosystems. In general, these exceedences are less than ten times the criteria (except for naphthalene), which suggests that on an overall basis the groundwater is unlikely to have a significant impact on groundwater quality in the nearby receiving water body, namely the Yarra River, especially considering the potential for dilution of the groundwater as it discharges.

Please do not hesitate to contact the undersigned if you have any questions regarding the first round of groundwater monitoring.
