Description of the Environmental Management System

COPCISA, S.A., has been certified since 2000 in the UNE-EN ISO 14.001 standard. The implementation of an Environmental Management System according to the UNE-EN ISO 14.001 standard offers the possibility of systematizing, in a simple way, the environmental aspects of its direct and indirect activities in order to determine the aspects that may or may not have a significant impact on the environment. 

Regarding environmental aspects and their calculation methodology, adirect environmental aspect is one over which the organization exercises direct control of its management. These environmental aspects and their respective impacts must be evaluated to determine which of them will have to be controlled during the execution of the work. Due to the nature of the work, the aspects and their impacts should be reevaluated periodically to determine whether the control being exercised is adequate. Regarding the indirect aspect, the organization does not have direct control over the Indirect Environmental Aspects and Impacts, but it can influence them to a reasonable degree, probably through third parties over which it has some kind of authority, such as subcontractors and suppliers on site. The determination of the significance level of a direct environmental aspect, under normal and abnormal conditions, depends on 2 variables: PROBABILITY (P), which is defined as the frequency (high, medium or low) in which the environmental aspect under consideration materializes and the SERIOUSNESS OF THE CONSEQUENCE (G), caused by the environmental aspect under study and according to the parameters contemplated: Availability of applicable permits (PER), Impact on the Environment (IA), Magnitude of Impact (M) and Impact on Third Parties (ATP). An Environmental Aspect is considered SIGNIFICANT when the product between Probability (P) and Severity (G) is greater than 40.

The determination of the significance level of an indirect environmental aspect, under normal and abnormal conditions, depends on 2 variables, in the same way as for direct aspects: PROBABILITY (P) which is defined as the frequency (high, medium, low) in which the environmental aspect under consideration occurs and. SERIOUSNESS OF THE CONSEQUENCE (G), caused by the environmental aspect under study and according to the parameters: Impact on the Environment (IAI), Stakeholders (PII) and Purchasing Requirements (RCI). An Indirect Environmental Aspect is considered as SIGNIFICANT when the product between Probability (P) and Severity (G) is greater than 40. SIGNIFICANT ASPECT if P x G > 40 .

In addition, the EMS promotes environmental protection and pollution prevention from a point of view of balance with socioeconomic aspects. Among other environmental advantages, it optimizes the management of resources and waste, reduces the negative environmental impacts derived from the activity or those risks associated with accidental situations.

It should be noted that the sustainable growth of COPCISA, S.A. is based on the optimization of resources, the efficiency of its actions and the minimization of possible impacts. COPCISA, S.A. has implemented, among others, policies for the reduction of carbon emissions and waste associated with its actions. COPCISA, S.A. has reinforced its commitment to sustainable development with the adhesion to the United Nations Global Compact and the establishment of Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) and is registered in the Carbon Footprint Register. In 2022 COPCISA, S.A. will be certified for the first time with the EMAS Regulation.

Energy use and management

Energy management

COPCISA, S.A. has its main energy use in the consumption of fossil fuels and electricity consumption both in the central office and in the different works. The SDG that is aligned in this point is number 7: Affordable and non-polluting energy. Work is being done to increase the proportion of renewable energy in the energy sources as a whole, with annual targets for reducing energy consumption, replacing LED lights, changing the fleet of vehicles and investing in renewable energies.

Environmental management and control

The energy consumed in the Organization, consumption of fossil fuels and electricity consumption, has undergone variations in recent years due to the type of works executed. These consumptions are directly proportional to the execution needs of the works, so changes may occur from one year to another. Even so, energy consumption is in the order of 50 MWh per year, taking into account the two variables together (fuel and electricity consumption)..

Every year, the organisation makes efforts to minimise consumption by implementing measures such as replacing lighting with LEDs, incorporating ECO vehicles into the company's fleet, studying the mobility of workers and committing to the incorporation of more sustainable energy consumption systems.

No Renewable Energy is generated on-site at the Organization.

The sources of the data used in this section are the invoices of the fuel and electricity suppliers in each case.

Specific key figures and evolution

Units of energy consumption in MWh

Water use and management

Water management

In the Organization, water is used in the construction process and in the different installations for sanitary uses. Depending on the type of work (civil works or building) and its use, water consumption is variable. The use of water is mainly for the construction processes themselves and for irrigation to avoid dust. The source of the water is the water supply network, although on sites where there is no connection, water provided in irrigation water tanks is used.

The SDG under this point is number 6: Clean water and sanitation.

Environmental management and control

In the Organization, whenever possible in the execution of the work, we are committed to reusing water. For example, it is used in watertightness tests on roofs, where water from upper roofs is used for lower ones. Use for minor uses, irrigation, etc. .... We have also opted for truck wheel cleaning systems with water recirculation for better use.

The origin of the water in most cases is from the supply network, although depending on the works they can have different origins, especially in civil works where sometimes the water can be captured from the phreatic or from existing ponds.

The source of the data in this section comes from the invoices for the different supplies.

Specific key figures and evolution

Waste water discharge management

Wastewater management

Sanitary wastewater generated in the offices is discharged into the municipal sewage system. On the other hand, during the execution of works, an operational control has been implemented to ensure that all discharges are carried out properly. For example, the cleaning of concrete gutters, concrete mixers and the like is carried out in sealed collection points to avoid affecting the soil and aquatic systems, and is subsequently managed as waste. Likewise, sanitary wastewater from construction sites is discharged through the sewage system by requesting the corresponding connection permit or through chemical sinks.

Occasionally, some construction sites generate discharges from groundwater generated during the excavation process. When this is the case, a specific environmental plan is drawn up to ensure that no negative environmental impact is generated prior to discharge into the sewage system or watercourse and to ensure that water systems are not affected (for example: piezometric controls, settling of particles, control of water quality, etc., as appropriate). 

The source of the data is the technical reports provided by the works based on the operational control implemented in them.

In this case, SDG is number 6 Clean Water and Sanitation.

No wastewater was discharged into the natural environment this year.

CO2emissions

Emissions management

COPCISA, S.A. is not a company that produces large atmospheric emissions. Basically the emissions that the Organization generates are generated by the mobility of personnel and the movement of trucks and machinery that brings to the work all that is necessary for its construction. Emissions can also be generated during the execution of the works due to dust emissions from the movement of machinery or the demolition of buildings. The main sources of emissions are fuel consumption (combustion gas emissions), electricity consumption (indirect emissions) and earth moving, demolition and other construction activities (dust emissions). For this reason and with the clear conviction to work for the reduction of its emissions, COPCISA S.A. is registered in the Voluntary Agreements Program of the Generalitat de Catalunya since 2019 and has the CALCULO seal of the Ministry of Ecological Transition and Demographic Challenge verified since 2020. With this commitment in the calculation and reduction of atmospheric emissions, a roadmap has been drawn up to reach carbon neutrality and annual targets are set to minimize them.

Las acciones más destacadas para la reducción de las emisiones consistirán en realizar un Plan de Movilidad de la empresa, sustituir los vehículos actuales por vehículos con energías más limpias, en un plazo de 10 años, apostar por la contratación de compañías eléctricas que usen energías renovables, disponer de casetas en las obras con placas solares y contratar a proveedores de proximidad (<50km) así como empresas que dispongan de un compromiso con la reducción de emisiones o dispongan de sistemas de gestión ambiental. En el caso del polvo se incorporan en las distintas obras sistemas de minimización del mismo.

COPCISA, S.A. is also part of the United Nations Pact against climate change, and the annual objectives are aligned with the Climate Development Goals in the case of emissions, the SDG 7; Affordable and clean energy. Monitoring indicators are available to check the evolution of emissions year after year. The company's objective is to be neutral by 2050.

Environmental management and control

The evolution of the Organization's calculatedCO2 emissions since 2020 has been progressively decreasing in the first two years, but has increased slightly in the last year. in the first two years, but in the last year it has increased slightly. This increase is mainly due to the type of work that has been carried out this year, which has increased fuel consumption compared to other years due to the impossibility of using other means with less impact.

The Organization's forecast is to reduce the emissions emitted, taking into account the objectives set over the years. In addition, it is committed to contracting 100% renewable energy in all centers where feasible, the use of LED lighting, sustainable mobility and the progressive replacement of the vehicle fleet. As can be seen in the data, the largest volume of emissions is found in the use of fossil fuels used for the movement of vehicles and machinery. In smaller volume are the emissions produced by the consumption of electrical energy and fugitive emissions.

The source of the emission factors for the data reflected in the Environmental Statement comes from the Ministry of Ecological Transition and Demographic Challenge (2023). The source of the data included in this section comes from supplier invoices.

Emissions in tons ofCO2 equivalent include aggregate emissions of CH4( 229.97 kg), N2O(32.32 kg) andCO2 ( 864,146.41 kg), as well as other fluorinated greenhouse gas emissions, and no fugitive emissions of fluorinated gases were recorded in the period reported.

As for PM (suspended particulate matter) emissions, quantitative data are not available since no measurements are taken. This significant environmental aspect is minimized with qualitative measures such as periodic watering during the earthmoving phases, wheel cleaning areas at machinery exits, and the obligation to place tarpaulins on trucks transporting earth or aggregates. During the demolition phases, watering is carried out and screens are provided to prevent the dispersion of dust in the buildings.

Emissions of NOx, SO2 and PST related to fuel consumption have been estimated, with total emissions of 3,078.33 kg of NOx, 11.56 kg of SOx and 281.49 kg of PST (source: emission factors for pollutants emitted into the atmosphere ed. 2022 of the COIB-Balearic Government).

CO2emissions

Other emissions: Results by gases broken down (N2O, CH4, CO2).

Waste management

Waste management

Waste management in the Organization is one of the main environmental aspects in the construction sector. COPCISA, S.A. has an Environmental Management Plan as well as a Waste Management Plan in compliance with RD 105/08 on construction and demolition waste. COPCISA, S.A. prioritizes the correct segregation of waste, working to minimize its generation and seeking the best waste management, prioritizing its recovery/recycling. All this means a commitment to recycling rather than eliminating the waste generated. In the purchasing process, priority is given to those materials that have some type of eco-label, as well as suppliers that have some type of environmental certification (ISO 14.001 or EMAS).

Regarding this point COPCISA, S.A. adheres to SDG number 12 on responsible production and consumption, setting annual targets to work in the line of reducing waste generated in the Organization.

Environmental management and control

In the management of waste generated in the works, COPCISA, S.A. is committed to minimization, in the correct segregation at source and in the prioritization of recycling and recovery of the same.

All waste generated is properly managed and has a Waste Management Plan (RD 105/08), a clean point for hazardous waste and an area for non-hazardous waste. In the case of clean excavation soils, their use in other works or backfilling operations is promoted. In reference to the destination of waste management, in 2022, 98.40% of the waste (including soil) was recycled and recovered and 1.6% of the waste was sent to landfill (including soil). If waste management is evaluated, with the exception of soil, the percentage of waste valuation and recycling would be 94.84% compared to 5.16% of waste going to landfill.

The main wastes generated at construction sites are: earth, concrete, mixed wastes, bituminous mixtures, non-hazardous stabilized wastes, iron and wood. 

Regarding the proportion of waste generated in 2022, the most generated waste is non-hazardous waste (62,552.37 Tn) representing 30.64%, followed by soil (141,555.48 Tn) representing 69.34% and to a lesser extent, hazardous waste (26.78 Tn), representing 0.13%.

There is an annual objective to increase waste recovery from 98.4% to 99%. The goals to achieve this objective are: to analyze the amount of waste recovered and recycled vs. total waste, and to disseminate good practices in waste recycling and recovery. To this end, the Department is providing training and continuous support to the works.

The source of the waste data comes from documentation provided by the waste managers.

Management of raw materials and resources

Management of material resources

In COPCISA, S.A. the consumption of raw materials is an important issue due to the nature of our activity. The main raw materials used are concrete, cement, aggregates, steel, earth, chemical products and asphalt mixtures. Even so, the use of recycled materials, eco-labelled materials and recyclable materials is promoted whenever feasible. 

Environmental management and control

It should be noted that the consumption of raw materials varies greatly depending on the type of works contracted, as it directly influences their consumption. Even so, as has been indicated, the use of recycled materials is promoted whenever feasible, such as recycled aggregates or iron/steel, mainly. Whenever possible, recycled materials or materials with an environmental eco-label are used. 

The source of the data is the invoices for the different materials for each plant or site.

Impact analysis and improvement planning

Environmental aspects and impacts

Environmental aspects and impacts

COPCISA, S.A. has determined a procedure for the identification and determination of the environmental aspects and impacts of its activities, both for the stable work centers and for each of the works in progress, specifically P-CORP-20B relating to environmental aspects and risks. The determination of the significance of environmental aspects is based on weighting the probability and severity of the negative environmental impact. 

Description of the most important and significant environmental aspects

Significant aspects are identified through procedure P-CORP20B. This procedure identifies the significant direct and indirect environmental aspects of the centers or works according to two general criteria of probability and severity, (which in the case of severity is subdivided into 4 subcriteria; applicable permits, environmental impact, magnitude and impact on third parties, for direct aspects). And according to the criteria of probability, environmental impact, interested parties, purchasing requirements for indirect aspects. A system of control measures is implemented to control these aspects through inspection points. They are considered significant when the result of the weighting is higher than 40 points.

From these identifications, the significant environmental aspects that have emerged in the works are:

  • Soil contamination from different sources
  • Dust and particulate generation
  • Waste generation
  • Noise Pollution
  • Water pollution from different sources
  • Fuel consumption
  • Water consumption
  • Atmospheric pollution

Those identified but not significant were: Electricity consumption, Concrete consumption, Storage by chemical products, Storage of fuels, Breakage of affected services, Affecting the population, Forest/urban fires, Generation of vibrations and Alteration of flora.

In the case of the Terrassa CTE, no significant environmental aspects have been detected.

And the aspects identified as not significant were: Water consumption, Electricity consumption, Paper consumption, Waste generation, Generation of atmospheric pollution (greenhouse gases) and Storage of chemical products.

In order to minimize these significant impacts, measures are implemented to reduce the impact and objectives are also incorporated to improve the recovery of waste generated in the works, and work continues on controlling fuel consumption and minimizing it as much as possible.

In the case of CTE, training is provided to reduce paper, electricity and water consumption.

Description of environmental progress 

The environmental performance and improvement of COPCISA, S.A. is improving year after year by working on the different objectives set and their indicators.

Environmental improvements include the incorporation of hybrid and LPG cars in the fleet, the replacement of CTE lighting fixtures with LEDs, the creation of a specific system to retain spills on the ground, the continued calculation of the organization's carbon footprint and a roadmap for the decarbonization of the company, which aims to achieve neutrality by 2050.

Environmental improvement planning

Target Planning

Environmental objectives are planned annually for the Organization within the Integrated Management System, together with environmental indicators and their monitoring. These objectives derive on the one hand from significant aspects, emission minimization objectives and annual training.

Environmental improvement planning

The following are the planned improvement objectives (2022 - 2025)

Good environmental management practices
