I. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

1. Government of Madhya Pradesh (GoMP) through Government of India (GoI) is negotiating a loan under multi-tranche financing facility (MFF) with the Asian Development Bank (ADB) for the proposed Madhya Pradesh Urban Services Improvement Project (MPUSIP) herein after referred as the “Project”. Madhya Pradesh Urban Development Company Limited (MPUDC) shall be the Implementing Agency and the State Urban Development and Housing Department (UDHD) shall be the executing agency for the Project

2. Tranche 1 of the Project will cover water supply interventions for 69 towns and sewerage collection and treatment in 4 identified towns. Subproject for improvement of water supply system in the three towns of Pankhedi, Maakdone and Susner is proposed under Tranche 1. The ADB- approved initial environmental examination (IEE) report, August 2016 for the construction package 3B has been updated considering the detailed design completed for the sub-project.

3. The Subproject. Pankhedi town is located in District, Maakdone town in District and Susner Town is in Agar- District, in the northern part of the state. Population as per 2011 census was: Pankhedi – 11,723, Maakdone – 11,678, and Susner - 16,432. Improvement of water supply in these three towns will be implemented under a single Design-Build-Operate (DBO) contract package. The objective of the subproject is to achieve safe and sustainable water services both in terms of services to customers, cost recovery, providing 100% coverage with continuous, pressurized and safe drinking water services and achieving progressively increasing cost recovery by expanding the coverage and increasing operating efficiency.

OHT of capacity of 200 KL; (vii) 45.069 km of distribution Network, and (viii) water connections & meters.

4. Screening and assessment of potential impacts. ADB requires the consideration of environmental issues in all aspects of the Bank’s operations, and the requirements for environmental assessment are described in ADB‟s Safeguard Policy Statement (SPS), 2009. As per the GoI EIA Notification, 2006, this subproject does not require EIA study or environmental clearance. The potential environmental impacts of the subproject have been assessed using ADB Rapid Environmental Assessment Checklist for Water Supply (Refer Appendix 3). Then potential negative impacts were identified in relation to pre-construction, construction and operation of the improved infrastructure.

5. Categorization. Based on results of the assessment and ADB SPS, 2009, the subproject classification pertaining to environmental safeguards continues to be “Category B”, i.e., the subproject is judged to be unlikely to have significant adverse environmental impacts.

8

6. The final IEE report aims to (i) provide critical facts, significant findings, and recommended actions; (ii) present the national and local legal and institutional framework within which the environmental assessment has been carried out; (iii) provide information on existing geographic, ecological, social and temporal context including associated facilities within the subproject’s area of influence; (iv) assess the subproject’s likely positive and negative direct and indirect impacts to physical, biological, socioeconomic, and physical cultural resources in the subproject’s area of influence; (v) identify mitigation measures and any residual negative impacts that cannot be mitigated; (vi) describe the process undertaken during project design to engage stakeholders and the planned information disclosure measures and the process for carrying out consultation with affected people and facilitating their participation during project implementation; (vii) describe the subproject’s grievance redress mechanism for resolving complaints about environmental performance; (viii) present the set of mitigation measures to be undertaken to avoid, reduce, mitigate, or compensate for adverse environmental impacts; (ix) to describe the monitoring measures and reporting procedures to ensure early detection of conditions that necessitate particular mitigation measures; and (x) identify indicative costs and who is responsible for carrying out the mitigation and monitoring measures.

7. Description of the Environment. Proposed subproject component area under the Pankhedi, Maakdone and Susner. The project area – municipal areas of Pankhedi, Maakdone and Susner Nagar Parishads comprise the habitation areas of respective towns. Proposed project components are mostly located in the towns, and its surroundings where there are no notable sensitive environmental features. Site for WTPs and OHTs are located in vacant government lands where there are no sensitive environmental features, and all the pipelines being laid along the public roads, either in the earthen shoulder or within the tarmac, where there is no space along the roads. There is no notable tree cover, and therefore no tree cutting is envisaged. Intakes are located in dams / reservoirs, which are located away from the towns, and are mostly surrounded by agricultural lands, and there are no sensitive features like forests. Flora and fauna found in the area is of local species. Aquatic life in the dams is limited to local common species. Therefore, no significant impacts envisaged.

8. Potential Environmental Impacts. The subproject is unlikely to cause significant adverse impacts because: (i) relatively small scale as the population and water demand is minimal, and appropriate sources are selected considering water availability & sustainability (ii) the components involve straightforward construction and operation, so impacts are mainly localized; and (iii) predicted impacts are site-specific and likely to be associated with the construction process and are produced because the process is invasive, involving excavation and earth movements.

9. Environmental impacts as being due to the project design or location are not significant. The proposed water supply schemes in towns include design of new water sources based on nearest existing dams, that include construction of Intake well and drawing of water from existing dams i.e. Tillar dam for Maakdone town and Keetkhedi Dam for Susner town. Considering good water availability and low water requirement of towns, it is assessed to be unlikely to have any significant issue of source sustainability. Water quality is good and there are no potential pollution sources in the vicinity that could affect the water quality.

10. During the construction phase, impacts mainly arise from the construction dust and noise the need to dispose of large quantities of waste soil and import of construction material, and from the disturbance of residents, businesses, traffic and important buildings by the construction work. The social impacts (access disruptions) due to construction activities are unavoidable, as the residential and commercial establishments exist along the roads where pipes are being laid. As intake works are conducted in dams/reservoirs, there is a risk of water contamination, riverbed damage, etc. These impacts are temporary and reversible. Appropriate measures are suggested.

11. Environmental Management Plan. An environmental management plan (EMP) has been developed to provide mitigation measures to reduce all negative impacts to acceptable levels. Locations and siting of the proposed infrastructures were considered to further reduce impacts. These include (i) locating facilities on government-owned land to avoid the need for land acquisition and relocation of people; and (ii) laying of pipes in RoW alongside main/access roads, to reduce acquisition of land and impacts on livelihoods specifically in densely populated areas of the town. 9

12. The EMP includes design measures such as (i) wash water recovery for the WTP to reduce effluent to be discharged and safe sludge disposal (iii) energy efficient pumping equipment and (iv) quick leak detection and rectification to save the resources, etc. During construction, the EMP includes mitigation measures such as (i) appropriate selection of construction methodology and scheduling of works in dams/reservoirs to minimize the impacts on water quality; (ii) implementation of traffic management plan in coordination with local traffic police to minimize traffic impacts; (iii) awareness campaigns and consultations to inform residents and businesses of potential disturbances; (iv) provision of walkways and planks over trenches to ensure access will not be impeded; (v) use of noise-dampening measures in areas with sensitive receptors such as hospi tals, schools , places of worships and other silence-zones; (vi) use of dust-suppression methods such as watering and/or covering of stockpiles; and (vii) finding beneficial use of excavated materials to extent possible to reduce the quantity that will be disposed off. As for the O&M phase, facilities will need to be repaired from time to time, but environmental impacts will be much less than those of the construction period as the work will be infrequent, affecting small areas only. The design of the WTP includes dewatering and drying areas as part of sludge management. The EMP includes mitigation measures and monitoring plan to ensure compliance to environmental standards during O&M phase.

13. The EMP will guide the environmentally-sound construction of the subproject and ensure efficient lines of communication between Madhya Pradesh Urban Development Company (MPUDC), project management unit (PMU), project implementing unit (PIU), consultants and contractors. The EMP will (i) ensure that the activities are undertaken in a responsible non- detrimental manner; (i) provide a pro-active, feasible and practical working tool to enable the measurement and monitoring of environmental performance on site; (ii) guide and control the implementation of findings and recommendations of the environmental assessment conducted for the subproject; (iii) detail specific actions deemed necessary to assist in mitigating the environmental impact of the subproject; and (iv) ensure that safety recommendations are complied with. The EMP includes a monitoring program to measure the environmental condition and effectiveness of implementation of the mitigation measures. It will include observations on- and off-site, document checks, and interviews with workers and beneficiaries.

14. The DBO contractor has prepared and submitted a site environmental plan (SEP) including (i) proposed sites/locations for construction work camps, storage areas, hauling roads, lay down areas, disposal areas for solid and hazardous wastes; (ii) specific mitigation measures following the approved EMP; (iii) monitoring program as per SEP; and (iv) budget for SEP implementation to PMU/ADB for review and approval. No works are allowed to commence prior to approval of SEP. A copy of the EMP/approved SEP has been kept on site during the construction period at all times. The EMP included in the bid and contract documents. Non-compliance with, or any deviation from, the conditions set out in this document constitutes a failure in compliance.

15. Consultation, disclosure and grievance redress mechanism. The stakeholders were involved in developing the IEE through discussions on-site and public consultation at several places in the town, after which views expressed were incorporated into the final IEE report and in the planning and development of the project. The final IEE will be made available at public locations and will be disclosed to a wider audience via the ADB, MPUDC and PMU websites. The consultation process will be continued and expanded during project implementation to ensure that stakeholders are fully engaged in the project and have the opportunity to participate in its development and implementation. A grievance redress mechanism is described within the IEE to ensure any public grievances are addressed quickly.

16. Implementation Arrangements. Urban Development and Environment Department (UDED) of Government of Madhya Pradesh is the Executing Agency and Madhya Pradesh Urban Development Company (MPUDC) is the Implementing Agency. Project Management Unit (PMU) attached to MPUDC is responsible for implementation, and is being supported by Project Implementation Units (PIUs). Several teams of Design Consultants, and a Project Management Consultant (PMC), support PMU & PIUs. Infrastructure have been designed, built, and operated by DBO contractor for 10 years, after which it will be transferred to ULBs. Project Officer (Environment) at PMU and Assistant Safeguard Officer (ASO) at each of the PIU is responsible for environment

10

safeguards tasks, and is being supported by PMC. Contractor personnel include an Environment, Health and Safety (EHS) supervisor.

17. Monitoring and Reporting. The PMU and PMC is responsible for monitoring. The PMC submits quarterly and semi-annual monitoring reports to PMU, and the PMU after reviewing, send the semi-annual monitoring reports to ADB. ADB posts the environmental monitoring reports on its website.

18. Conclusions and Recommendations. The subproject is therefore unlikely to cause significant adverse impacts. The potential impacts that are associated with design, construction and operation can be mitigated to standard levels without difficulty through proper engineering design and the incorporation or application of recommended mitigation measures and procedures. Based on the findings of the final IEE, there are no significant impacts and the classification of the project continues to be Category “B” is confirmed. No further special study or detailed environmental impact assessment (EIA) needs to be undertaken to comply with ADB SPS (2009) or GoI EIA Notification (2006). Project required permission of Water Resources Department (WRD) for water abstraction, intake construction, and consent of Madhya Pradesh Pollution Control Board (MPPCB) for WTPs, which are already obtained from concerned Departments.

19. This final IEE report is based on detailed design by the DBO contractor “M/s Multi Urban Infra Services Pvt. Ltd.” reflecting changes, amendments during implementation phase and has been reviewed and approved by PMU.

II. INTRODUCTION

A. Background

1. Government of Madhya Pradesh (GoMP) through Government of India (GoI) is negotiating a loan under multi-tranche financing facility (MFF) with the Asian Development Bank (ADB) for the proposed Madhya Pradesh Urban Services Improvement Project (MPUSIP). herein after referred as the “Project”. Madhya Pradesh Urban Development Company Limited (MPUDC) shall be the Implementing Agency and the State Urban Development and Housing Department (UDHD) shall be the executing agency for the Project. The Project envisages to deliver:

d. Continuous, pressurized, safe and sustainable drinking water through private household metered connections in 69 tier II towns in the State; e. Sewage collection and treatment system in 4 identified towns (Anjad, Badwaha, Sanawad and Saikheda); and f. Non-physical investments comprising of establishing GIS system, capacity building of participating urban local bodies in contract management, improving local operators‟ capability through global partnership and building capacity of the implementing agency, urban local bodies and services utilities for ensuring long term sustainability of services.

2. Tranche 1 of the Project will cover water supply interventions for 69 towns, sewage collection and treatment system for 4 towns and non-physical investments in the participating local bodies as mentioned above. Subproject for improvement of Pankhedi, Maakdone and Susner towns water supply system is proposed under Tranche 1. The ADB-approved initial environmental examination (IEE) report, August 2016 for the construction package 3B has been updated considering the detailed design completed for the sub-project.

3. The subproject towns of Pankhedi, Maakdone and Susner area located in the northern part of Madhya Pradesh state, and improvement of water supply in these three towns is one of the subprojects proposed under MPUSIP. The objective of the subproject is to achieve safe and sustainable water services both in terms of services to customers, cost recovery and conservation of precious water resources. The subproject envisages providing 100% coverage of population with continuous, pressurized and safe drinking water services and achieving progressively increasing cost recovery by expanding the coverage and increasing operating efficiency. The subproject includes civil works (intake, WTP, raw and clear water transmission, storage tanks, distribution network, consumer connections and flow meters), project implementation and management, and non-physical investments. A detailed description of the components is provided in Section III.

B. Purpose of Final IEE Report

4. ADB requires the consideration of environmental issues in all aspects of the Bank’s operations, and the requirements for environmental assessment are described in ADB‟s Safeguard Policy Statement (SPS), 2009. The potential environmental impacts of the subproject have been assessed using ADB Rapid Environmental Assessment Checklist for Water Supply (Refer Appendix 3 for Pankhedi, Maakdone and Susner towns, respectively). Then potential negative impacts were identified in relation to pre-construction, construction and operation of the improved infrastructure, and results of the assessment show that the subproject is unlikely to cause significant adverse impacts. Thus, this final initial environmental examination (IEE) report has been prepared in accordance with ADB SPS‟s requirements for environment category B projects.

5. This final IEE report is based on the detailed engineering design prepared by DBO contractor during implementation stage, reflecting any changes and latest subproject 12

designs. The Draft IEE was based mainly on field reconnaissance surveys and secondary sources of information. No field monitoring (environmental) survey was conducted however, the environmental monitoring program developed as part of the environmental management plan (EMP) will require the contractors to establish the baseline environmental conditions prior to commencement of civil works. The results reported as part of the environmental monitoring report and it is the basis to ensure no degradation will happen during subproject implementation. Stakeholder consultation was an integral part of this final IEE report.

6. The objectives of this final IEE report for Package 3B are:

i. provide information on the detailed engineering design, significant findings, and recommended actions; ii. provide information on national and local statutory requirements applicable to Package 3B; iii. update information on environmental baseline conditions based on DBO contractor’s pre-works documentations; iv. report on package’s impacts to physical, biological, socioeconomic and physical cultural resources if not yet covered in the Draft IEE; v. report the mitigation measures, monitoring program, and any residual negative impacts that cannot be mitigated; vi. describe engagement of stakeholders, information disclosure measures, and consultation plans during package/subproject implementation; vii. describe the package/subproject‘s grievance redress mechanism for resolving complaints about environmental performance; viii. submit the site-specific EMP; and ix. provide the costs and who is responsible for carrying out the mitigation and monitoring measures.

III. DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT

A. Project Area

8. This report presents the proposed water supply scheme of Package 3B comprising Pankhedi, Maakdone and Susner towns. Pankhedi (Kalapipal) got its name from two adjacent villages named as Kalapipal and Pankhedi. Kalapipal before coming to the territory of Nagar Parishad comes in Pankhedi gram Panchayat i.e. Kalapipal and Pankhedi are the part of Pankhedi Gram Panchayat. After establishment of the Nagar Parishad in 2015 the town got its name Pankhedi (Kalapipal). Formerly town is known as Pankhedi Panchayat. Pankhedi comes in the tehsil of Kalapipal. Kalapipal is now a state legislative seat. Pankhedi (Kalapipal) ULB had established in 2015.The total area of Pankhedi is 10 sq km and total population as per 2011 census is 11723.

9. Maakdone is a small town in . Maakdone is situated 60 km from the district Headquarters and is 236km from State capital Bhopal. Maakdone, Barotiya, Bhagwatpur and Delchi are 4 Nagar Panchayat which are constituted to make Maakdone Nagar Parishad in 2009. Major town economy is based on farming. Town also contains a sub market yard established in 1970. The population of the town as per 2011 census is 11678 and total geographic area of town is 8 sq km.

10. Susner is a town located in district Agar malwa and municipality Susner was established in 1941.This town is situated along the edge of Madhya Pradesh border with . Susner geographically lies at 230-56‟N Latitude & 760-05‟E Longitude. It is situated 32 Km from the District headquarters. The total municipal area is approximately 11.5Sq.Km. The location map of the Susner, Pankhedi Maakdone towns is shown in figure 1 as given below.

B. Existing Water Supply Situation

1. Pankhedi

11. Present water supply of the Pankhedi (Kalapipal) town is mostly depend on ground water i.e. on 6 tube wells, 50 nos. of hand pumps, 4 open wells in the town and 2 open wells at Siloda Dam.

12. Public Health Engineering Department had executed Pankhedi Water Supply Scheme in year 2011. In the scheme, two numbers of open wells are constructed in Siloda Dam. Water from the open well will be pumped to Sump & Pump House near Siloda Dam. Total 20 Hp (1 Working & 1 Standby) pumps are installed in two open wells. Water from the Sump & Pump House is being pumped to 175 KL OHT in the town with the help of 15 Hp pumps. Only bleaching powder is being used for the treatment of water. Total 60 Hp (10 Hp on each tube well) capacity pumps are installed at 6 tube wells. Then the water is distributed with the help of approximate 3 km of distribution system having ACP pipes from 100 to 150 mm diameter and PVC pipes having diameter 80 mm laid in the town. Thus the total water supplied to the Pankhedi (Kalapipal) town at present is 0.48MLD i.e. 48 LPCD.

13. Present water supply arrangements are not adequate and ground water source level is depleting day by day, therefore water scarcity conditions are arising. Water supply losses during transmission are also very high i.e. more than 45%, that leads to a high energy consumption and loss of ULB. Presently water will be supplied only for 3 hours on alternate days.

14

8 2. Maakdone

14. Presently water supply in Maakdone town depends upon surface source and ground water source. Major water supply of the town is done by surface source. Water from Tillar dam is supplied to the town by around 10 km of pumping. Water from Tillar Dam is pumped to two numbers of Wells and then pumped to OHT for Distribution. The pumping main from Tillar dam is 160mm PVC pipeline laid in 2005, while the distribution in the town is laid in very haphazard manner which increases the water losses by 40%. At present ward no. 2, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13 are having full coverage of water supply. While ward no. 3, 4, 5, 6, 14, 15 does not getting water from ULB.

3. Susner

15. The first water supply system in Susner is executed in 1960-1965 by PHE. Total installed capacity of the present water supply of Susner is almost 0.50 MLD. Presently town is getting water from the 4 no. Tube wells, 50 hand pumps and 3 no. Open well. There is no water treatment plant & intake well. Water from tube-wells is either pumped into OHT or supplied directly to the residents of Susner after adding bleaching powder.

16. The existing rising main is of 150 mm dia. having length of 3000 m comprising of CI pipe the pipes are not in a good condition. Hence shall be not used in the proposed project. The OHTs are being filled by 4 Tube wells fitted with 10.00 HP - 15.00 HP motor pumps. There is no filtration plant as on date. The existing distribution system comprises of CI and GI pipes having diameters of 100 mm - 250 mm & total length of 25.00 KM.

Figure 1: Subproject Location 17. Overall, the current water supply systems in all the three towns face similar issues predominantly resulting from receding groundwater sources, low coverage and unreliable supply, inadequate infrastructure and heavy water losses.

C. Updated Package Scope

18. Package 3B covers three towns of Pankhedi, Maakdone and Susner. These are small town having the status of Municipal Council (Nagar Parishad). It is proposed to improve water supply in the towns, with town-wise new independent water supply schemes, to achieve safe and sustainable water services both in terms of services to customers and cost recovery by providing 100% coverage with continuous, pressurized and safe drinking water services. The subproject includes the civil works, project implementation and management and non-physical investments.

19. As part of this project, it is proposed to develop comprehensive water supply schemes in each of the three project towns. Proposals include new water sources, treatment facilities, storage reservoirs, pumping, transmission and distribution infrastructure. Project will also provide consumer connections with flow meters. Bulk flow meters are proposed at strategic locations to monitor the system performance efficiency.

20. Based on the detailed engineering design, following Table 1 shows the proposed water supply systems along with nature and size of components in three subproject towns. Figure 2 to Figure 10 show the proposed water supply components, raw water rising main and clear water rising main alignment with overhead tanks locations duly marked for towns Pankhedi, Susner and Maakdone respectively. The detailed engineering design has been reviewed by the PMC and approved by the PMU.

21. Project benefits. The subproject aims to achieve safe and sustainable water services both in terms of services to customers, cost recovery and conservation of precious water resources. The subproject will provide continuous, pressurized and safe drinking water services to entire population of the towns (100% coverage). Besides achieving progressively increasing cost recovery by expanding the coverage and increasing operating efficiency, the subproject will improve the overall environmental quality of the town. It will reduce the reduced time and costs of households in accessing alternative sources of water, and will lead to better public health particularly reduction in waterborne and infectious diseases.

IV. POLICY, LEGAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE FRAMEWORK

A. ADB Policy

23. ADB requires the consideration of environmental issues in all aspects of ADB‟s operations, and the requirements for environmental assessment are described in ADB SPS, 2009. This states that ADB requires environmental assessment of all ADB investments.

24. Screening and Categorization. The nature of the environmental assessment required for a project depends on the significance of its environmental impacts, which are related to the type and location of the project; the sensitivity, scale, nature, and magnitude of its potential impacts; and the availability of cost-effective mitigation measures. Projects are screened for their expected environmental impacts, and are assigned to one of the following four categories:

27

(i) Category A. Projects could have significant adverse environmental impacts. An EIA is required to address significant impacts. (ii) Category B. Projects could have some adverse environmental impacts, but of lesser degree or significance than those in category A. An IEE is required to determine whether significant environmental impacts warranting an EIA are likely. If an EIA is not needed, the IEE is regarded as the final environmental assessment report. (iii) Category C. Projects are unlikely to have adverse environmental impacts. No EIA or IEE is required, although environmental implications are reviewed. (iv) Category FI. Projects involve a credit line through a financial intermediary or an equity investment in a financial intermediary. The financial intermediary must apply an environmental management system, unless all projects will result in insignificant impacts.

25. Environmental Management Plan. An EMP, which addresses the potential impacts and risks identified by the environmental assessment, shall be prepared. The level of detail and complexity of the EMP and the priority of the identified measures and actions will be commensurate with the project’s impact and risks.

26. Public Disclosure. ADB will post the safeguard documents on its website as well as disclose relevant information in accessible manner in local communities:

(i) for environmental category A projects, draft EIA report at least 120 days before Board consideration; (ii) final or updated EIA and/or IEE upon receipt; and (iii) environmental monitoring reports submitted by the implementing agency during project implementation upon receipt.

B. National Environmental Laws

27. Environmental Assessment. The GoI EIA Notification of 2006 (replacing the EIA Notification of 1994), sets out the requirement for Environmental Assessment in India. This states that Environmental Clearance (EC) is required for specified activities/projects, and EC must be obtained before any construction work or land preparation (except land acquisition) may commence. Projects are categorized as A or B1 or B2 depending on the scale of the project and the nature of its impacts. None of the components of this water supply subproject falls under the ambit of the EIA Notification 2006, and, therefore no category assigned, and thus no EIA study and EC required for the subproject.

28. Applicable Environmental Regulations. Besides EIA Notification 2006, there are various other acts, rules, policies and regulations currently in force in India that deal with environmental issues that could apply to infrastructure development. The specific regulatory compliance requirements of the subproject are shown in Table 3. Table 3: Applicable Environmental Regulations

Location & Environmental Infrastructure Site Photograph Features Utilization of As per Draft IEE report approved by Existing Intake ADB in August 2016, a new intake was at Soyatkala proposed, but as per detailed survey, Village audit and design by DBO Contractor, constructed by an existing intake constructed by UADD UADD at Soyatkala village for Soyatkala WSS near proposed intake site was found suitable for reuse. Hence proposal of new intake has been excluded from the scope of work.

Existing intake well of Soyatkala water supply scheme will be used as a common intake for Susner & WSS. Existing intake well Existing Intake made of RCC dia of 6 meter and height 15 meter with 160-meter approach bridge. This Intake well located at latitude- 24 ° 01"34" N, and longitude- 76° 07'26" E.

Existing intake located in Keethkhedi dam constructed across River Kanthal River, about 11 km north of Susner town will be used at Soyatkala village constructed by UADD.

Existing Intake is located within the dam area, and the pump house is Keetkhedi dam located above the intake well. Pumps have been installed in the existing intake in Keetkhedi dam. Intake is approachable by a bridge connecting to the road and intake. Existing intake is in good condition and under

42

operation.

Keetkhedi dam is used as feeder reservoir for irrigation and drinking purposes. Water level in the dam is usually high in the post monsoon season, and recedes with release of water in the period of October /November to January / February. As per local peoples, enough water is available throughout the year at existing intake well site.

The gross storage capacity of existing dam is 21.06 MCM and Live storage capacity is 19.06 MCM, while the water requirement for the project for ultimate year 2048 is 2.25 MLD or 0.82 MCM say 1 MCM per year, which is about 5.24%, which is adequate to meet the project yearly demand of the design year. Permission of WRD for abstraction of water from Keetkhedi dam already obtained.

There is no tree and vegetation at the location of existing intake well. Site is surrounded by agricultural land & reservoir. There is no notable, protected or unique aquatic life in the Keetkhedi dam. Aquatic life in the Keetkhedi dam is limited to local specifies of fishes, and aquatic plants. There are no notable sensitive features. There is no commercial fishing taking place in this existing dam. Boatmen and washer men were not observed near the existing intake well location on Keetkhedii dam,

As the existing intake proposed for Susner town WSS, do not involve any construction works or augmentation of water, as the water is sourced from the existing Keetkhedi dam, which was built exclusively for irrigation & drinking purposes water supply, and has adequate water storage to meet the project demand. So no source and construction related impacts are envisaged.

43

Raw & clear Transmission pipelines will be mostly water laid along the main roads. Pipes will be transmission laid underground. Pipes will be laid mains within the road right of way (ROW).

Raw water and Clear water feeder mains from existing intake to WTP and from WTP to the OHTs will be laid within the RoW of PWD and ULB road. There are no trees in the alignment. Hence no tree cutting required during construction.

Water Treatment Proposed WTP site is located in Plant police ground. The land is under custody of Revenue Department, GoMP. Site is vacant, unused, devoid any notable tree cover / vegetation. Site is surrounded by vacant police ground.

Over Head OHT is proposed at this site in police Tank ground, adjacent to WTP. The land is verified as government land under the custody of Revenue department, GoMP. There are no notable environmental sensitive features at the site. Site is surrounded by vacant police ground.

Distribution All distribution lines being laid or will be network laid along the roads /streets in the (45069m) town within the road right of way (ROW). The roads in the core city area are very narrow and congested with pedestrians and vehicles (mainly 2- wheelers), while the roads in outer areas are wide. The roads in town are wide enough to lay the pipelines. There are no trees along the roads.

As per detailed survey and design by DBO contractor overall length of network increased by 12196. It is just increase in alignment due to spatial 44

growth of the Susner town and continuous growth in population and construction of buildings in each wards. Susner town has 15 wards and as per actual survey by DBO Contractor, the network length increased in each ward on an average is approx. 500m to 1000 m

In wider roads pipes are being laid or will be laid in the road earthen shoulder along the tarmac within the RoW, and in narrow roads, where there is no space, pipes are being laid or will be laid in the road carriage. Roads in the old part of the town are quite narrow (~3m), and in the rest of the town roads are wider. . Roads are having open drains on both sides. There are no trees along the roads, except in some new colonies in the outer areas. In old town areas pipes are being laid or will be laid in the middle of the road, which may affect the traffic. Given the small diameter (about 75 mm) pipes, the trench excavation is very minimal (0.4 x 0.7m) wide and 0.8 to 1 m depth. There are no forest areas within the prescribed limit of the town. Hence there is no involvement of forest land or required any permission for pipe laying. There is no tree cutting involved during construction period. Hence no impact envisaged. . No additional impacts. Assessment in draft IEE approved by ADB is still applicable

VI. ANTICIPATED ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT S AND MITIGATION MEASURES

36. Potential environmental impacts of the proposed infrastructure components are presented in this section. Measures to minimize/mitigate negative impacts, if any, are recommended along with the agency responsible for implementation. Monitoring actions to be conducted during the implementation phase is also recommended.

37. Screening of potential environmental impacts are categorized into four categories considering subproject phases: location impacts and design impacts (pre- construction phase), construction phase impacts and operations and maintenance phase impacts.

a. Location impacts include impacts associated with site selection and include loss of on-site biophysical array and encroachment either directly or indirectly on adjacent environments. It also includes impacts on people who will lose their livelihood or any other structures by the development of that site. b. Design impacts include impacts arising from Investment Project design, including technology used, scale of operation/throughput, waste production, discharge specifications, pollution sources and ancillary services. c. Construction impacts include impacts caused by site clearing, earthworks, machinery, vehicles and workers. Construction site impacts include erosion, dust, noise, traffic congestion and waste production. d. O&M impacts include impacts arising from the operation and maintenance activities of the infrastructure facility. These include routine management of operational waste streams, and occupational health and safety issues.

38. Screening of environmental impacts has been based on the impact magnitude (negligible/moderate/severe – in the order of increasing degree) and impact duration (temporary/permanent).

39. This section of the final IEE reviews possible project-related impacts, in order to identify issues requiring further attention and screen out issues of no relevance. ADB SPS (2009) require that impacts and risks will be analyzed during pre-construction, construction, and operational stages in the context of the project’s area of influence.

40. The ADB Rapid Environmental Assessment Checklist in http://www.adb.org/documents/guidelines/environmental_assessment/eaguidelines002.asp is used to screen project for environmental impacts and to determine the scope of the IEE.

41. In the case of this project (i) most of the individual elements are relatively small and involve straightforward construction and operation, so impacts are mainly localized and not greatly significant; (ii) proposed water abstraction from the sources is very small compared to overall water availability, (iii) most of the predicted impacts are associated with the construction process, and are produced because that process is invasive, involving excavation and earth movements; and some works are located in the reservoir and (iv) being mostly located in an urban area, will not cause direct impact on biodiversity values. The project properties held by the local government and access to the project location is through public rights-of-way and existing roads hence, land acquisition and encroachment on private property will not occur.

46

A. Pre-Construction Impacts – Design & Location

42. Design of the Proposed Components. Technical design of the (i) intake facilities, (ii) water treatment plant; (iii) raw water and clear water mains, (iv) storage reservoirs, and (v) distribution network, connections, flow meters, etc., follows the relevant national planning and design guidelines, focusing on providing a robust system which is easy to operate, sustainable, efficient and economically viable. Besides, the project also included the following environmental considerations:

(i) Discontinuation of current unsustainable groundwater source and creating a new water supply system based on nearest surface water sources (ii) Appropriate intake location to ensure year round water availability, to avoid construction of any storage structure such as weir/dam (iii) Recovering backwash water from treatment process (iv) Treatment and reuse of sludge from treatment process (v) Minimizing water losses from pipelines by perfect jointing and alignments (vi) using appropriate techniques (HDPE pipes up to 150 mm dia joined by electro fusion couplers using on-site electro fusion welding, and all higher dia pipes by on site butt welding) (vii) Designing the entire system to maintain optimal flow and terminal pressure, and optimizing the overall energy usage (viii) Reducing the incidence of water borne diseases by providing 100% population including urban poor with potable water supplies (ix) Improve water use efficiency and reduce water wastage at household level by recording and monitoring the water usage, and charging the consumers as per usage; due consideration to urban poor (x) Minimize unaccounted for water (UFW) losses using district metered area approach with flow meter and pressure logging arrangements to identify and rectify the leaks, and unauthorized connections (xi) Using low-noise and energy efficient pumping systems

43. Water Source & Sustainability. As the subproject towns are located far from each other (~50-100 km) there was no possibility of a combined source/ bulk water scheme. Therefore, independent water supply schemes are proposed for 3 towns separately based on the most feasible water source considering techno-economic and environmental considerations as indicated in table 8.

The Ganeshpura Dam: It having gross storage At present water is supplied from groundwater groundwater level in Makdon is deep and capacity of 2.15Mcum. Looking to the irrigation (tube wells) and open wells in Siloda dam. has been falling over the period, and area (CCA).

Parbati River that flows near the town is Kanthal River: Flowing through south - north seasonal and may require creation of large storage Selected source: Tillar Dam, constructed direction, very near to the town. But by considering and therefore not considered. Open wells in Siloda across River Tillar, is located at about 11 the discharge and catchment area of the river there dam are already supplementing groundwater, and km from the town in east direction. This is is no scope for extraction of desired amount of therefore it is considered as appropriate source. an irrigation dam with a total capacity of water for the proposed project. Details are provided below. 52.2 MCM. The ultimate design water requirement of Maakdone town is 2 MLD Selected Source: Keetkhedi Dam, situated 11 km Selected source: Siloda Dam, constructed across (0.73 MCM/year). Water allocation and north of Susner, is an irrigation dam. By River Siloda is at about 6 km north-west of the permission has been obtained from the considering the capacity and the distance from the town. This is an irrigation dam with a total storage WRD. Salient features of Tillar dam are town, it is the appropriate source. Keetkhedi Dam capacity of 4.28 MCM. The ultimate design water provided in Appendix 4. is constructed across River Kanthal. with a total requirement of the town is 2 MLD (0.73 MCM/year). capacity of 21.06 MCM. The ultimate design water These open wells are located in the submergence requirement of Susner town is 2.25 MLD (0.821 area of the dam/reservoir and are duly permitted by MCM/year). Water allocation and permission has the WRD. The yield test shows that yield is 23.93 been obtained from the WRD. Salient features of LPS more than required. 19.32 LPS. Salient Keetkhedi dam is provided in Appendix 4. features of Siloda dam is provided in Appendix 4 .

48

44. Dam water sustainability and environmental considerations. (i) Pankhedi: The yield test shows that yield of the well in Siloda Dam is 23.93 LPS that is more than required pump discharge i.e. 19.32 LPS. Hence it shows well is capable to cater the demand of Pankhedi town for proposed water scheme. There will be no impact on the existing dam uses, considering that wells are already permitted by WRD, and also that the requirement of the town is very minimal. Moreover, there is no direct abstraction from the dam storage, as the water will be pumped from the open wells. Therefore, no notable downstream impacts envisaged.

(ii) For Maakdone, water is being sourced from Tillar dam. The gross storage capacity of dam is 52.197 MCM and live storage capacity is 45.347 MCM, on the other hand the total quantity required for Maakdone WSS is about 1 MCM, which is only 2.2% of live storage capacity. Water allocation has been obtained from the WRD for Maakdone water supply. Therefore, no notable downstream impacts envisaged on existing uses or ecosystem.

(iii) In Susner water is being sourced from Keetkhedi Dam. The gross storage capacity of dam is 21.06 MCM and live storage capacity is 19.06 MCM, on the other hand the total quantity required for Susner WSS is about 1 MCM, which is only 5 % of live storage capacity. Water allocation has been obtained from the WRD for Susner water supply. Therefore, no notable downstream impacts envisaged on existing uses or ecosystem.

45. Use of Chlorine as disinfectant. It is proposed to use chlorine at WTP to disinfect the water prior to supply to consumers. There is invariably a safety risk when chlorine is handled. Although facilities are not located close to habitations, safety precautions are necessary to ensure the safety of workers and citizens. To avoid any risk, chlorination facility will be provided with the following safety provisions;

. Chlorine neutralization pit with a lime slurry feeder . Proper ventilation, lighting, entry and exit facilities . Facility for isolation in the event of major chlorine leakage . Personal protection and safety equipment for the operators in the chlorine plant . Provide training to the staff in safe handling and application of chlorine; this shall be included in the contract of Chlorinator supplier . Supplier of Chlorinator equipment shall provide standard operating manual for safe operation and as well as maintenance and repairs; preferably these shall be provided both in English and Languages

46. Utilities. Telephone lines, electric poles and wires, water lines within the proposed project locations may require to be shifted in few cases. To mitigate the adverse impacts due to relocation of the utilities, the contractor, in collaboration with ULB will (i) identify the locations and operators of these utilities to prevent unnecessary disruption of services during construction phase; and (ii) instruct construction contractors to prepare a contingency plan to include actions to be done in case of unintentional interruption of services.

47. Site selection of construction work camps, stockpile areas, storage areas, and disposal areas. Priority is to locate these near the project location. However, if it is deemed necessary to locate elsewhere, sites to be considered will not promote instability and result in destruction of property, vegetation, irrigation, and drinking water supply systems. Residential areas will not be considered for setting up construction camps to protect the human environment (i.e., to curb accident risks, health risks due to air and water pollution and dust, and noise, and to prevent social conflicts, shortages of amenities, and crime). Extreme care will be taken to avoid disposals near forest areas, water bodies or in areas which will inconvenience the community.

49

48. Site selection of sources of materials. Significant quantities of coarse aggregate and fine aggregate will be required for construction works. Requirement of gravel is limited. Contractor should procure these materials only from the quarries permitted/licensed by Mines and Geology Department. Contractor should, to the maximum extent possible, procure material from existing quarries, and creation of new quarry areas should be avoid as far as possible. It will be the construction contractor’s responsibility to verify the suitability of all material sources and to obtain the approval of Department of Mines & Geology and local revenue administration. The construction materials shall be brought from the source complied with environmental regulations of India.

B. Construction Impacts

49. Pipe laying works. The roads in the core city area of all the towns are very narrow and congested with pedestrians and vehicles (mainly 2-wheelers), while the roads in outer areas are wide. In some areas pipes will be laid in the middle of the road, which may affect the traffic. Civil works in the project include linear excavation for laying pipes along the roads, placing pipes in the trench and refilling with the excavated soil. The trenches are of 0.4 m – 0.7 m wide and 0.8 to 1 m depth. Subsequent to completion of works, road reinstatement will be undertaken by the contractor as part of the civil works.

50. Other construction works. Other civil works in the subproject include repair and rehabilitation of existing wells in Siloda Dam, and construction of intake cum pump house in the Tillar dams, raw water pumping station, water treatment plants, water tanks (ground level / overhead), pumping stations at identified sites. These works are confined to sites, and construction includes general activities like excavation for foundation, construction of foundations, columns, walls and roof in cement concrete and masonry, and fixing of mechanical and electrical fixtures, etc. Intake well cum pump house involves construction within the water body. Works mostly conducted during the low – water level period, during which there is no submergence at the selected intake site. Works will be completed before onset of the monsoon flow into the dam.

51. Although construction of these project components involves quite simple techniques of civil work, the invasive nature of excavation and the project locations in water bodies (for intakes) and the built-up areas in town where there are a variety of human activities, will result in impacts to the environment and sensitive receptors such as residents, businesses and the community. The following temporary and short duration impacts envisaged:

(i) Construction of intake wells in the dams/reservoirs may lead to degradation of water quality, increase in turbidity and chemical contamination from fuels and lubricant used in construction work. This may the aquatic life, silting/chocking of spill ways/ canals etc., Though there are no notable aquatic life and also works are small scale, preventive measures will be required, and are suggested in the EMP (Refer table 12 & table 18). (ii) Dust and air emissions from construction activities and equipment / vehicles affecting the ambient air quality (iii) Impacts on natural drainage, surface water bodies due to disposal of construction waste and silt / chemical laden run off from work areas (iv) Impacts on river/dam eco-system due to river bed construction (v) Impacts due to disposal of surplus soil, construction waste, debris etc., (vi) Impacts due to noise and vibration from consultation activities (vii) Impacts due to collection of groundwater in trenches & disposal of the same (viii) Impact/public inconvenience/ accessibility issues due to excavation on public roads (narrow old town roads), movement of trucks carrying construction material (ix) Impacts on business, activities, people due to loss/restricted access to public/private/business/sensitive areas (schools, hospitals), etc., (x) Occupation health and safety impacts on workers (xi) Health Impacts due to removal of existing AC (asbestos cement) pipes (xii) Community health and safety impacts due to construction in an urban area (xiii) Impacts due to establishment/operation of temporary construction camps 50

52. The above impacts are typical for construction in urban areas, and therefore are common to all the three subproject towns. These are negative but short-term and reversible by mitigation measures. There are well-developed and proven measures and construction practices to avoid, mitigate and/or minimize these impacts to acceptable levels. These measures are given in the construction phase EMP (Table 12 & Table 18) applicable to all three towns.

53. The final IEE report assessed all potential impacts of the package/subproject based on detailed design by DBO Contractor. The final IEE report concluded that the package/subproject will not cause any significant adverse impacts due to: (i) schemes are relatively small and their effect will be local and site-specific which is manageable and controllable and (ii) impacts are site-specific and likely to be associated with the construction process and are produced because the process is invasive, involving excavation and earth movements.

54. Table 9, provides the assessment of the potential impacts of components based on detailed engineering design. Based on the results, the potential impacts identified in the Draft IEE are similar in nature and remains as not significant. The findings have been verified by the PIU and PMC. The table 9 also shows specific mitigation measures used in developing the site-specific EMPs (SEMP).

55. Mitigation Measures Considered in the Detailed Engineering Design. Package 3B water supply scheme considered the locations of the nearest and sustainable water supply sources for all the three towns namely Pankhedi, Susner & Maakdone. Locations of proposed intake in Tillar dam in case of Maakdone town; existing Soyatkala intake in Keetkhedi dam in case of Susner town & existing open wells in Siloda dam in case of Pankhedi town are identified such that adequate water is available throughout the year to ensure continuous water supply. Clearances required from Water Resources Department for water abstraction from selected sources have been obtained for all the three towns. A regular water quality regime needs to be established for checking the raw water quality. The water supplied to the consumers at all-time must meet the drinking water standards (Refer to Appendix 8).

56. The construction of new intake well in Maakdone town may lead to degradation of water quality due to increase in turbidity and chemical contamination from fuels and lubricant used in construction work. Increase in silt content and water turbidity, chemical quality can affect the aquatic life, silting/chocking of spill ways/ canals etc. The following are considered in the design:

• Construction methodology selected is least disturbing, and appropriate for the in- situ soil condition. • Construction works have been scheduled during low water level period – late winter months to pre monsoon (February – June/July). • Schedule will ensure works are completed to prior to onset of monsoon. • Temporary barriers will be constructed to form enclosed area to minimize disturbance • Allow adequate time settle the distributed solids to prior to pumping out water; only clear/clarified water shall be pumped back into the reservoir; any silt laden water should be pumped to a silt pond

57. All the three WTPs will generates sludge from sedimentation, chemical flocculation, residuals of excess chemical dosage, plankton etc; and wastewater from rinsing and back washing of filter. Final IEE includes design measures for proper management of sludge and wastewater. Wastewater will be collected and recirculated, resulting in zero waste discharge, and settled sludge will be dewatered, dried, and disposed by land filling/reused in beneficial purposes. Various pollution prevention measures included in final IEE for construction phase to control dust, noise, emissions from construction vehicles, silt-laden surface runoff during rains etc.

58. For the proposed WTP, enhancement measures like proper wash water recovery, sludge management, chlorine safety facilities and quick leak detection and rectification to save the resources, etc. are included are already included in the designs. CTE from MPPCB, which is mandatory for the WTPs, has been obtained.

59. Mitigation Measures Considered in the Construction Phase.

60. Pipe Laying Works. Civil works include linear excavation for laying pipes along the roads, placing pipes in the trench and refilling with the excavated soil. The roads in town are wide enough to lay the pipelines. In wider roads pipes are being laid or will be laid in the road earthen shoulder along the tarmac within the RoW, and in narrow roads, where there is no space, pipes are being laid or will be laid in the road carriage. Roads in the old part of the town are quite narrow (~3m), and in the rest of the town roads are wider. In old town/core areas pipes are being laid or will be laid in the middle of the road, which may affect the traffic. The trenches are of 0.4 m – 0.7 m wide and 0.8 to 1 m depth. Given the small diameter (about 75 mm to 110 mm) pipes, the trench excavation is very minimal (0.4 x 0.7m). Earth work excavation are being undertaken manually as well as mechanically using an excavator machine (backhoe excavator) and include danger lighting and using barricades at every 100 m. Construction work area is demarcated with temporary soft barricades (reflective ribbons, traffic cones etc.,). Equipment, excavated soil, workers, and construction activities confined to the barricaded area; pipe jointing works, however, conducted on a 61

vacant land.

61. Distribution pipeline work is being taken up in section-wise by DBO contractor daily; trench excavation, pipe laying, jointing, refilled, consolidated with a plate vibrator/ roller and levelled by the end of the day; this limits the public disturbance to a minimum time. Subsequent to completion of works, road reinstatement is being undertaken by the contractor as part of the civil works. The mitigation measures are discussed in the EMP (Refer Table 12 & Table 18).

62. Sufficient care being taken while laying so that existing utilities and cables are not damaged and pipes are not thrown into the trenches or dragged, but carefully laid in the trenches. As trenches are a maximum of 1.2 m, there is no risk of collapse of trenches or risk to surrounding buildings. Once they are laid, pipes being joined as per specification and then tested for any cracks of leakages.

63. Other construction works. Other civil works in the subproject include repair and rehabilitation of existing wells in Siloda Dam, and construction of intake cum pump house in the Tillar dams, raw water pumping station, water treatment plants, water tanks (ground level / overhead), pumping stations at identified sites. These works are confined to sites, and construction includes general activities like excavation for foundation, construction of foundations, columns, walls and roof in cement concrete and masonry, and fixing of mechanical and electrical fixtures, etc. Intake well cum pump house involves construction within the water body. A temporary enclosed area (about 10 m dia) being created using appropriate material and the water being pumped out to make the area dry for construction. Once this is created, the rest of the construction follow the general construction procedures to create a RCC well of size 5 m diameter. Once the work is over, the temporary structure will be removed. Works mostly conducted during the low – water level period, during which there is no submergence at the selected intake site. Works will be completed before onset of the monsoon flow into the dam.

64. The minimum working hours are 8 hours daily, the total duration of each stage depends on the soil condition and other local features.

65. About 95% of the excavated soil will be used for refilling the refilling the trench after placing the pipe and therefore residual soil after pipe laying and refilling is not significant. This excess soil being used for construction.

66. Total earthwork excavation is 65204 cubic meter m3 (Pankhedi - 15732 m3 Susner - 25001m3 and Maakdone - 24471 m3) of which about 77.75% (Pankhedi - 14673 m3, Susner- 25692 m3 and Maakdone -10331 m3) of the excavated soil will be used for refilling the trench after placing the pipe and therefore total residual soil after pipe laying and refilling is 14508 m3. This excess soil shall be used for construction and surplus soil (Pankhedi @ 196 m3 Susner @ 630m3 & Maakdone @300 m3 i.e. total=1126 m3) will be disposed of to low lying areas of the ULBs after the permission of concerned ULB Material will be sourced from existing licensed quarries. An estimated 688 m3 (Pankhedi @ 15732 m3 Susner@ 25001m3 & Maakdone @24471 m3) of fine aggregate (sand) and 1223 m3 (Pankhedi @ 15732 m3 Susner @ 25001m3 & Maakdone @24471 m3) of coarse aggregate will be used in the construction. The construction materials shall be brought from the sources complied with environmental regulations of India.

67. Although construction of these project components involves quite simple techniques of civil work, the invasive nature of excavation and the project locations in the built-up areas of the town where there are a variety of human activities, will result in impacts to the environment and sensitive receptors such as residents, businesses, and the community in general. The mitigation measures are discussed in the EMP (Refer Table 12 & Table 18).

68. PMU, with assistance of PMC, has developed standardized SEMP, which has been shared with all DBO Contractors. This standardized SEMP includes specific mitigation measures and monitoring checklists applicable to construction activities common in all 62

Phase 1 works. The contractor of package 3B has submitted SEMP.

69. The SEMP given here includes the design measures for (i) wash water recovery for the WTP to prevent effluent to be discharged; (ii) safe disposal of sludge coming out of wash water tanks from WTP (iii) beneficial use of treated sludge; (iv) energy efficient pumping equipment and (v) quick leak detection and rectification to save the resources, etc. During execution phase, the EMP includes mitigation measures such as (i) implementation of traffic management plan in coordination with local traffic police to minimize traffic impacts (ii) awareness campaigns and consultations to inform residents and businesses of potential disturbances; (iii) provision of walkways and planks over trenches to ensure access will not be impeded; (iv) use of noise-dampening measures in areas with sensitive receptors such as hospitals, schools, places of worships and other silence-zones; (v) use of dust-suppression methods such as watering and/or covering of stockpiles; and (vi) finding beneficial use of excavated materials to extent possible to reduce the quantity that will be disposed off. As for the O&M phase, facilities will need to be repaired from time to time, but environmental impacts will be much less than those of the construction period as the work will be infrequent, affecting small areas only. The design of the WTP includes dewatering and drying areas as part of sludge management. The EMP includes mitigation measures and monitoring plan to ensure compliance to environmental standards during O&M phase.

70. Environmental standards (IFC’s EHS Guidelines): DBO contractor will apply pollution prevention and control technologies and practices consistent with international good practices as reflected in internationally recognized standards such as the World Bank Group’s Environmental, Health and Safety Guidelines and will adopt cleaner production processes and good energy efficiency practices. If less stringent levels or measures are appropriate in view of specific project circumstances, the DBO contractor will provide full and detailed justification for any proposed alternatives that are consistent with the requirements presented in ADB SPS 2009.

71. The Final IEE and SEMP shows how (i) design provides for pollution prevention from WTP, and (ii) how dust noise, air emissions, and water pollution will be controlled during the construction.

72. The Final IEE and SEMP includes more detailed checklists such (i) contractors twice a week EHS Checklist; (ii) contractors monthly SEMP Implementation Report; and (iii) PIU environmental safeguards compliance. The subproject will not add any incremental impacts to the environment. Site monitoring checklists and formats are given in Appendix 14.

73. A copy of the approved SEMP has been kept onsite during the construction period at all times. The EMP included in the bid and contract documents. Non-compliance with, or any deviation from, the conditions set out in this document constitutes a failure in compliance.

74. For civil works, the contractor is required to (i) carry out all of the mitigation and monitoring measures set forth in the approved SEMP; and (ii) implement any corrective or preventative actions set out in safeguards monitoring reports that the employer will prepare from time to time to monitor implementation of this final IEE and SEMP. The budget has been allocated for compliance with these SEMP measures, requirements and actions.

75. The table 10, table 11, table 12 and table 13 shows the anticipated environmental impacts and proposed mitigation measures during design phase, pre-construction phase, construction phase and operation phase for the subproject towns Pankhedi, Maakdone and Susner under package 3B.

C. Operation and Maintenance Impacts

76. Operation and Maintenance of the water supply system will be carried out by the DBO Contractor for 10 years, and after which the respective municipalities will operate and maintain the infrastructure. During the system design life (15/30 years for mechanical/civil components), it shall not require major repairs or refurbishments and should operate with little maintenance beyond routine actions required to keep the equipment in working order. The stability and integrity of the system will be monitored periodically to detect any problems and allow remedial action if required. Any repairs will be small-scale involving manual, temporary, and short-term works involving regular checking and recording of performance for signs of deterioration, servicing and replacement of parts.

76

77. Recurrence of pipe bursting and leakage problems can be managed by the leak detection and water auditing surveys. The ULBs will be required to ensure that the leak detection and rectification time is minimized.

78. Provision for recirculation system for filter backwash – backwash water from filter beds will be sent to a storage tank, and after allowing adequate time for settlement of solids, clarified water will be pumped to WTP inlet. This arrangement will avoid pollution and also minimize wastage of water. Water treatment process will generate sludge from sedimentation of particulate matter in raw water, flocculated and precipitated material resulting from chemical coagulation, residuals of excess chemical dosage, plankton etc; and waste from rinsing and back washing of filter media containing debris, chemical precipitates, straining of organic debris and plankton. Accumulated sludge from Tube Settler, filter backwash etc., will be disposed-off at sludge drying beds for natural drying. Dried sludge will be disposed off in a land fill or used as soil conditioner if it is suitable.

D. Project benefits

79. During the construction phase there are likely to be positive impacts through employment generation, increase in local revenue from the project activities. During the operation phase also, there is potential for employment generation, though limited, as the improved and expanded water infrastructure requires additional workforce.

80. The citizens of Pankhedi, Maakdone and Susner will be the major beneficiaries of the improved water supply system, as they will be provided with a constant supply of better quality water, piped into their homes at an appropriate pressure. The project will improve the over-all health condition of the towns as water borne diseases will be reduced, so people should spend less on healthcare and lose fewer working days due to illness, so their economic status should also improve, as well as their overall health. This should also improve the environment of these areas, should deliver major improvements in individual and community health and well-being.

GRC will meet twice a month and determine the merit of each grievance brought to the committee. The GRC will resolve the grievance within 1 month of receiving the complaint. All decisions taken by the GRC will be communicated to complainant by the Nodal Officer.

107. The project GRM notwithstanding, an aggrieved person shall have access to the country's legal system at any stage, and accessing the country's legal system can run parallel to accessing the GRM and is not dependent on the negative outcome of the GRM. Alternatively, if the grievance is related to land acquisition, resettlement & rehabilitation2, the APs can approach the Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Authority (LARRA) of Madhya Pradesh, established under the Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation, and Resettlement Act, 2013.

108. Record-keeping. PIU will keep records of grievances received, corrective actions taken and the final outcome. The number of grievances recorded and resolved and the outcomes will be displayed/disclosed in the PIU office, ULB offices, and on the web.

1 Grievance redress committee (GRC) will be formed at town-level with members composed of: ULB Chairperson, ULB CMO, Environmental Specialist of PMC, PIU Dy.PM and PIU Community Development Officer. 2 the Authority admits grievance only with reference to the LA and R&R issues under the new Act

E. Monitoring and Evaluation systems of GRM

115. All grievances, concerns and complaints received shall be recorded by concerned authorities to be tracked. The status of the grievances shall be discussed in the review meetings organized at PIU and PMU level. The following indicators shall be monitored and recorded

• Number and type of complaints received; • Number and % of complaints that have been resolved; • Number and % of complaints that are unresolved;

116. The State GRC shall review grievance related data on monthly basis to evaluate the functionality of the system, as well as to note the followings:

• Failures to follow GRM procedures; • Delays in complaint resolution, particularly those that can affect project construction; • Most frequent types of grievances and complaints; • Location(s) producing the most grievances and complaints;

117. The GRM is envisaged to provide a time bound and transparent mechanism to voice and resolve social and environmental concerns linked with the project. In this regard, MPUSIP had issued an official order along with the guideline to all PIUs and ULBs to establish grievance redress committee (GRC) at all awarded subproject towns. Copy of government orders to form GRC in subproject towns is enclosed as Appendix 16 to Appendix 18. Accordingly, GRC established in Pankhedi, Susner & Maakdone towns, committee formed on January 6, 2018, December 5, 2017 and December 12, 2017 respectively (Refer Appendix 19-21). Table 15 represents the list of GRC members for Pankhedi, Susner & Maakdone town respectively.

IX. ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN

A. Implementation Arrangements

118. Urban Development and Environment Department (UDED) of Government of Madhya Pradesh is the Executing Agency for the Project, responsible for management, coordination and execution of all activities funded under the loan. Implementing Agency is the recently established Madhya Pradesh Urban Development Company (MPUDC), a wholly owned subsidiary of GoMP. A central Project Management Unit (PMU) attached to MPUDC is responsible for implementing the MPUSIP. The PMU is supported by Project Implementation Units (PIUs) with flexibility to redeployment depending upon the implementation requirements.

119. The PMU and PIUs are being supported by several teams of Design Consultants in preparation of preliminary engineering designs.

120. Water Resource Review Committee (WRRC) is constituted to undertake a thorough review of the source when recommended by the Design Consultant in regard to techno-economic feasibility and sustainability especially ensuring climate change resilience, and Technical Review Committee (TRC) to review and approve the preliminary designs developed by the Design Consultants.

121. Project Management Consultant (PMC) centrally located in PMU and with field teams located in PIUs is responsible for implementation of the Project. All infrastructure contracts are being procured through performance-based contracts (PBCs) and include build-operate (BO) framework. Based on the preliminary designs prepared by DPR Consultants, the DBO (design-build-operate) Contractor have designed, being constructed and will be commissioned and operated for 10 years, after which it will be transferred to the respective ULB.

122. Two Committees - an Empowered Committee cum Executive Committee and a Technical Clearance and Tender Committee have been constituted by the Government to be responsible for effective and timely implementation of the Project.

123. Safeguards. At PMU, there are two safeguard specialists: (i) Project Officer (Environment) and (ii) Social & Gender Offer, who is responsible for compliance with the environmental and social safeguards in Project implementation. PO (Environment) has overall responsibility in implementation of the investment program as per the Environmental Assessment & Review Framework (EARF) agreed between ADB and the government. At individual subproject level, PO will ensure that environmental assessment is conducted, and a project-specific is prepared and implemented, and the compliance, and corrective actions, if any are reported as required.

B. Environmental Management Plan

124. An environmental management plan (EMP) has been developed to provide mitigation measures to reduce all negative impacts to acceptable levels.

125. The EMP guides the environmentally-sound construction of the subproject and ensures efficient lines of communication between MPUDC, project management unit (PMU), project implementing unit (PIU), consultants and contractors. The EMP (i) ensure that the activities are undertaken in a responsible non-detrimental manner; (i) provide a pro-active, feasible and practical working tool to enable the measurement and monitoring of environmental performance on site; (ii) guide and control the implementation of findings and recommendations of the environmental assessment conducted for the subproject; (iii) detail specific actions deemed necessary to assist 94

in mitigating the environmental impact of the subproject; and (iv) ensure that safety recommendations are complied with. The EMP includes a monitoring program to measure the environmental condition and effectiveness of implementation of the mitigation measures. It will include observations on- and off- site, document checks, and interviews with workers and beneficiaries.

126. The DBO contractor has prepared and submitted a site environmental plan (SEP) including (i) proposed sites/locations for construction work camps, storage areas, hauling roads, lay down areas, disposal areas for solid and hazardous wastes; (ii) specific mitigation measures following the approved EMP; (iii) monitoring program as per SEP; and (iv) budget for SEP implementation to PMU/ADB for review and approval. No works are allowed to commence prior to approval of SEP.

127. A copy of the EMP/approved SEP has been kept on site during the construction period at all times. The EMP included in the bid and contract documents. Non-compliance with, or any deviation from, the conditions set out in this document constitutes a failure in compliance

128. For civil works, the contractor is required to (i) carry out all of the mitigation and monitoring measures set forth in the approved SEP; and (ii) implement any corrective or preventative actions set out in safeguards monitoring reports that the employer will prepare from time to time to monitor implementation of this final IEE and SEP. The contractor allocated budget for compliance with these SEP measures, requirements and actions.

129. The following table 16, table 17, table 18, table 19, table 20 and table 21 shows the potential environmental impacts, proposed mitigation measures and responsible agencies for implementation and monitoring during design phase, pre-construction phase, construction phase and operation phase for subproject towns Pankhedi, Maakdone and Susner Water supply systems respectively.

E. Monitoring and Reporting

134. During the detailed design stage, DBO Contractor should confirm PMU the mobilization of Environmental Expert for IEE update and integrating design stage EMP into designs.

135. Prior to commencement of the works, the contractor will submit a compliance report to PIU that all identified pre-construction mitigation measures as detailed in the EMP are undertaken. Contractor should confirm EHS supervisor is mobilized and EHS coordinators are designated for each town for effective implementation of the EMU. PMU with the assistance of the PMC will review the report and permit commencement of works.

136. During construction, results from internal monitoring by the contractor will be reflected in their monthly EMP implementation reports to the PIU. PMU will review and advise contractors for corrective actions if necessary. Quarterly report summarizing compliance and corrective measures taken will be prepared by PMC field team at PIU and submitted to PMU (Appendix 15). During operation, the contractor will conduct management and monitoring actions as per the operation stage EMP, and submit to PMU and ULB a quarterly report on EMP implementation and compliance.

137. Based on monthly & quarterly reports and measurements, PMU submits to ADB, semi- annual (6-monthly) Environmental Monitoring Reports (EMR) regularly. Once concurrence from the ADB is received the report is being disclosed on the MPUDC and PMU websites.

138. ADB review the project performance against the MPUSIP commitments as agreed in the legal documents. The extent of ADB‟s monitoring and supervision activities commensurate with the project’s risks and impacts. Monitoring and supervising of social and environmental safeguards is integrated into the project performance management system.

F. EMP Implementation Cost

139. Most of the mitigation measures require the contractors to adopt good site practice, which should be part of their normal procedures already, so there are unlikely to be major costs associated with compliance. The costs which are specific to EMP implementation and are not covered elsewhere in the projects are given below. The total costs are estimated at INR 2.45 million, which are to be covered by contractor costs as shown in table 23.

X. FIELD BASED ENVIRONMENTAL DUE DILIGENCE 140. This chapter ascertains presence of any residual environmental impacts due to implementation of works on account of changes in sub-projects locations and other additional scope, and suggests appropriate, time-bound corrective measures to address those residual environmental impacts.

141. The various aspects that would be considered for such field-based environmental due diligence are elaborated below:

(a) Confirmation of EMP in contractor’s contract agreement;

142. Yes, it is confirmed that EMP is in contractor’s contract agreement.

(b) Compliance status during pre-construction, construction and operation stage of the sub-project(s);

143. Pre-construction stage measures. In package 3B, water supply subprojects, most of the pre-construction stage measures are implemented.

144. Construction stage measures. The compliance status of package 3B with construction stage EMP measures are implemented and being complied.

155. No residual environmental impact is resulted by the construction activities under the project

131

XI. CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS 156. The ADB-approved initial environmental examination (IEE) report, August 2016 for the construction package 3B has been updated considering the detailed design completed for the sub-project.

157. The process described in this document has assessed the environmental impacts of all elements of the Pankhedi, Maakdone and Susner water supply improvement subproject. The assessment of the potential impacts of components based on detailed engineering design. All potential impacts were identified in relation to pre-construction, construction, and operation phases. Planning principles and design considerations have been reviewed and incorporated into the site planning and design process wherever possible; thus, environmental impacts as being due to the project design or location were not significant. Based on the results, the potential impacts identified in the Draft IEE are similar in nature in the final IEE and remains as not significant.

158. For Maakdone and Susner towns, water has been sourced from Tillar Dam and Keetkhedi Dam. The requirement of town is very less in comparison with the dam storage. For Pankhedi, water has been sourced from the existing open wells in Siloda Dam. WRD permission for construction of intake well and for abstraction of raw water from the dam already obtained. Therefore, no significant impacts envisaged on downstream users or the ecosystem. Aquatic life in the dams is limited to local common species. Water quality is good. Though there will be no health related impacts.

159. Proposed project components are mostly located in the subproject towns, and its surroundings where there are no notable sensitive environmental features. Site for WTPs and OHTs are located in vacant government lands, and all the pipelines will be laid along the public roads, either in the earthen shoulder or within the tarmac, where there is no place. There is no notable tree cover, and therefore no tree cutting is envisaged. Intakes will be located in dams/ reservoirs, which are located away from the towns, and are mostly surrounded by agricultural lands, and there are no sensitive features like forests. Therefore, no significant impacts envisaged.

160. During the construction phase, impacts mainly arise from the construction dust and noise, the need to dispose of large quantities of waste soil and import of construction material, and from the disturbance of residents, businesses, traffic and important buildings by the construction work. The social impacts (access disruptions) due to construction activities are unavoidable, as the residential and commercial establishments exist along the roads where pipes will be laid. As intake works are conducted in dams/reservoirs, there is a risk of water contamination, river bed damage, etc. These impacts are temporary and reversible. Appropriate measures are suggested.

161. Anticipated impacts of water supply during operation and maintenance will be related to detection and repair of leaks, pipe bursts. These are, however, likely to be minimal, as proper design and selection of good quality pipe material shall mean that leaks are minimal. Leak repair work will be similar to the pipe-laying work. Appropriate measures to deal with backwash water and sludge from WTP is included in the project design. Application and handling of chlorine gas will involve certain risks, and appropriate measures are suggested for safe application. The DBO Contractor will implement the operation stage EMP during contract period.

162. The public participation processes undertaken during project design ensured stakeholders are engaged during the preparation of this final IEE report. The planned

132

information disclosure measures and process for carrying out consultation with affected people will facilitate their participation during project implementation.

163. The project’s grievance redress mechanism provides the citizens with a platform to redress of their grievances, and describes the informal and formal channels, time frame, and mechanisms for resolving complaints about environmental performance.

164. The EMP will assist the PMU, PIU, PMC and DBO contractor in mitigating the environmental impacts and guide them in the environmentally sound execution of the proposed project.

165. A copy of the EMP/approved SEP has been kept on-site during the construction period at all times. The EMP have been made binding on all contractors operating on the site, and included in the contractual clauses. Non-compliance with, or any deviation from, the conditions set out in this document shall constitute a failure in compliance.

166. The project will benefit the general public by contributing to the long-term improvement of water supply systems and community livability in Pankhedi, Maakdone and Susner towns.

167. Therefore, as per ADB SPS 2009, the project is classified as environmental category “B” and does not require further environmental impact assessment. However, to conform to government guidelines, the project requires (i) permission of WRD, GoMP for water abstraction from Siloda dam, Tillar dam and Keetkhedi dam, and for construction of intakes on dams and (ii) Consent for Establishment (CFE) and Consent for Operation (CFO) for WTPs from MPPCB. These permissions/approvals already obtained.

168. This final IEE report has been updated during the implementation stage based on detailed engineering design by the DBO contractor reflecting changes, amendments and has been reviewed and approved by PMU.
