1. Project Identification

Project title Rehabilitation of Katugastota – Madawala Road (B205) and Madawala – Rajawella Road (B256)

Project Proponent Ministry of Defense and Urban Development,

2. Project Location

Location Katugastota – Madawala (B205) (relative to the nearest town, highway) Madawala – Rajawella (B256) Location of the project is depicted in Appendix 1(a-c). Definition of Project Area This 14.4 km (Ch. 0+000 ~ 14+440 km) road segment proposed for

(The geographical extent of the rehabilitation extends from Katugastota Junction to Digana Junction via project & areas affected Madawala Junction (Ch. 6 + 220). during construction) The project area is illustrated in Appendix 1 (a, b & c).

Adjacent land and features Land use features of this road stretch can be categorized into following

four distinct characteristics; . Mostly residential-type home gardens. . Residential developments on the hilly terrain, various types of small and medium-sized commercial activities along the road (street vendors, retail outlets, and service industries) and relatively high density housing on flat areas. . and associated wetlands on the right with most of the original paddy fields have apparently been abandoned. . Concentration of commercial activities at major junctions (i.e., Manikheenna, Madawala, Digana ) and close to Katugastota town.

3. Project Justification

Need for the project Katugastota is a small township located on the left bank of Mahaweli River which meanders bordering the historic City in the central highlands of the country. Digana, mainly a residential township newly (What problem is the project established about three decades ago under the Multipurpose Mahaweli going to solve) Development Scheme and also famous for its lush green plains, has gained much momentum in the recent past as an eco-friendly tourist destination also called as a haven for holiday makers and golfers alike. The township

is situated approximately 10 km east of Kandy City bounds. These two towns are also situated on the Jaffna – Kandy (A9) and Kandy – Mahiyangana – Padiyathalawa (B26) Roads, connected to Colombo – Kandy (A1) Road, thus this Katugastota – Madawala – Digana road link is strategically important as a bypass or peripheral road to avoid major congestion in Kandy City caused by east and north bound traffic during peak hours. The areas affected during construction phase due to proposed road improvements and other project activities will be confined to the existing road corridor including the carriageway, shoulders/ walkways/ embankments and immediate surroundings as explained in detail below where necessary.

Purpose of the project The effective capacity of the 32 road links in Kandy CBD have been tested (what is going to be achieved for ideal conditions through a recently concluded study (University of by carrying out the project) Moratuwa, 2011) and it was found that they all are significantly lower than ideal situations. Such poor conditions are due to the inadequate

shoulder/walkway widths, narrow lane widths of most of these links of the main roads. Thus it is evident that most of the roads in the CBD are have to be re-engineering to accommodate the requirement of different road users and with proper intersection control, channelization etc. Katugastota – Madawala Road (B205) and and Madawala – Rajawella Road (B256) raods are two-lane B class roads that are heavily used by traffic travelling to east and southeastern parts of the country from/to Kandy. The surface of this roads are relatively in good condition at present with newly laid asphalt surfacing. Development of these two raods have a huge potential in smooth flow of traffic, especially heavy vehicles. The road passes very close to Mahaweli Ganga at several locations where embankment protection is needed to avoid damages due to embankment failure. Shoulders and walkways need to be constructed along almost the entire stretch. Roadside stormwater drains are to be provided where necessary to facilitate fast drainage and concrete lining is required at locations with steep road grades.

Alternatives considered No other alternative is considered for this particular project as it is (different ways to meet the envisaged that there are no any other technically feasible and economically project need and achieve the viable engineering interventions that could be accommodated in place of project purpose) the proposed methodology for rehabilitation.

Proposed start date 1st July 2014

Proposed completion date 1st July 2015

Estimated total cost US$18-20 million

Present land ownership Road Development Authority

Description of the project

This road is proposed to be developed as the main eastern outer circular by-pass route, and once developed the vehicles can move from Digana to Katugastota without entering Kandy. There are a large number of 5 ton sand lories entering Digana from the main sand source in Mahiyangana which ply on this road daily. This road is owned by Road Development Authority (RDA). The section from Rajawella to Madawala is 8.21 km and from Madawala to Katugastota is 6.26 km. This will be developed to a 2 lane, 3.5 m wide carriageway with 1.5m shoulders. The pavement structure will be strengthened to suit the loads and traffic forecast. The proposed development will take into account the current traffic data. The road development will stop about 500 m prior to entering the Katugastota town limit. Dynamic Cone Penetration (DCP) tests and test pit investigations have been carried out on the section. The California Bearing Ratio (CBR)values of subgrade obtained from DCP Test vary from 1% to 44% and laboratory CBR is varied from 7% to 42%. Structure number of existing pavement varies from 74.0 to 82.75. Design subgrade CBR has been selected by considering CBR values obtained from DCP tests and laboratory tests. The engineer, after inspection of road shall decide the exact extent to be widened at the site. He shall confirm that the CBR is greater than 3% and 5% at 95% of Maximum Dry Density (MDD)under modified conditions of compaction for widening sections and greater than 3% and 5% at field density in the existing pavement respectively for sections. Also after inspection of the road, the failure sections of the existing road to be re-constructed shall be identified.

Traffic Forecast Traffic Data will be obtained from Planning Division, Road Development Authority.

Drainage The design of the road has been done with the provision of adequate drainage of the road surface by shaping the carriageway with a camber or a cross-slope to avoid surface ponding and subsequent damage to grade/sub-base and embankment while ensuring safe motorable conditions without the risk of aquaplaning/ hydroplaning at standard vehicular speeds. Improvements to the existing drainage facilities are required to establish an efficient system of drainage throughout this road stretch by way of roadside gullies and grates, side drains and toe drains, catch drains in embankment slopes, cross drainage structures (culverts and bridges), lead-away drains, etc., to collect storm water runoff and safely discharge them to the nearest natural water course with no or minimal impact to the existing environment. Several field visits have been made during the design period to make sure that the design is compatible with the existing conditions and to study about the drainage patterns, etc. As the openings of the existing culverts and bridges are sufficient for the discharges at respective locations, a detailed hydrological study was not needed. Further, none of the road sections has been observed to be subjected to flood or storm water over flows in the road trace. Project A Project Management Unit (PMU) will be established under the Ministry of Defense Management Team and Urban Development (MoDUD) to implement the proposed development activities in Kandy under the Strategic Cities Development Project (SCDP). The related consultancy services, project and construction supervision will be provided by Road

Development Authority. The PMU will operate under the oversight of a Steering Committee, chaired by MoDUD’s Additional Secretary and composed by RDA, UDA, the PLAs (Project Local Authorities), the Ministry of Provincial Councils and Local Authorities, the National Water Supply and Drainage Board (NWS&DB) and the Ministry of & Water Resources Management. Other ministries and agencies will be identified as stand-by members, to be called when relevant issues need to be dealt with (e.g. Central Environmental Authority, Ministry of National Heritage and Department of Archaeology). While the PMU will remain responsible for the overall implementation of the project, responsibilities will be decentralized to the Project Partner Agencies (PPAs: RDA and UDA) and to the PLAs, assisted by consultants for construction supervision.

5. Description of the existing environment 5.1 Physical features – Ecosystem components Topography and The topography of the country is characterized by a central mountainous region terrain rising up to about 2,500 m above mean sea level (AMSL), with the highest elevations covered by virgin forests and grasslands. The surrounding plains, which rise to about 50 to 100 m above sea level, are largely used for agriculture and homesteads, but still have virgin scrubland where the population distribution is lower. This general topography of the country can be divided into three distinct geographical areas or well-marked peneplains featuring the coastal belt, the plains, and the central highlands. Kandy City, where the project area is situated, is a plateau in the central mountainous region and lies 500 to 700 m AMSL. The terrain in the Kandy City area possesses a basin-like morphology and does not contain many steep, plunging slopes except in the surrounding mountains. The topography in this plateau consists of undulating plains with hillocks and valleys formed by the drainage paths. The first 2.6 km (Ch. 0 +000 ~ 2 + 640) stretch of Katugastota – Madawala – Digana Road (B205& B256) runs alongside of the left bank of Mahaweli River. The Katugastota – Madawala(B205) road section lies at an elevation ranging from 450 m ~ 475 m AMSL while the Madawala – Digana (B256) section lies at relatively a higher elevation ranging from 475 m ~ 550 m AMSL. (See Appendix 2: Terrain and Drainage Map).

Soil (type and The overburden soil cover made from the weathering of underlying rocks within the quality) project area is approximately 5.0~15.0 m thick and boulders and rock outcrops can occasionally be found alongside with the road stretch at several locations (Ch. 5+400~5+500, Ch. 14+020, Ch. 14+140 and Ch. 14+400, etc.). The main geological feature of Kandy City and its surrounding area is a band of marble that extends up to 650 m to one kilometer thick. This band is classified as coarse crystalline mainly made up of calcite. Calcsilicate gneiss intruded as bands within the host marble including scapolite and spinel as additional minerals. Collectively these two rock types give rise to reddish-brown overburden latosolic soil and immature brown loams in steep, hilly, and rolling terrain that on average ranges in thickness from one to three meters. The major bedrock types found within the Katugastota – Madawala road section area are identified as Biotite gneiss, which cover almost half the area (40~50%), Hornblende biotite gneiss (10~15%), Charnockitic gneiss (5~10%), Garnet biotite gneiss (3~8%) and Granitic gneiss which is also present in considerable percentages (2~5%). The road section from Madawala – Digana area has major rock types of Undifferentiated Highland Series, including Garnet sillimanite schist and gneiss, Quartz-feldspar grunulite, Charnocktic gneiss, Pyriclasite, and Pyroxene amphibolites, etc. Further, soils with relatively high percentage of clays, sands and fines are found only in areas associated with alluvial floodplains while immature loams can be found in paddies and marshes/wetlands. The major overburden soil types found along the road stretch Ch. 0+000~14+440 are of good quality and favourable for construction purposes. Soil stabilization and strengthening may be required only in areas where bend or grade corrections are

8

proposed and steep embankment slopes are to be maintained. (See Appendix 4a: Soil Map and 4b: Geological Map). Surface water The road trace (B205: Madawala Road) traverses very close to Mahaweli Ganga for nearly 2 km near the Katugastota end. The surface water sources are the River and its (sources, distance tributaries, creeks and canals associated with the river. There are many water streams from the site, local connecting the river upto the Uyanwatta – Polgolla Dam road, where the road uses and quality) deviates away from the Mahaweli Road. One such major stream is the one which runs beside the Jaffna highway (A9) very close to the Katugastota junction. Two streams crosses the B205 road and flow to the Mahaweli Ganga at locations close to Pelathawana Road (Figure 4.1: 1+640) and Wasana Kanda Road. There are no other surface water sources available in the vicinity. The local people use the river water to meet some of their domestic needs, such as washing, bathing etc. No irrigated lands are noted within this area and water extraction for irrigation purposes was not observed. Mega water supply schemes that are in operation rely on Mahaweli River for raw water extraction. The Kandy Municipal Council (KMC) Water Supply Scheme, which is located at Getambe, about 3 km southwards of Kandy CBD, has a production capacity of 33,400 m3/day. The Greater Kandy Water Supply Project (GKWSP) extracts up to 100,000 m3/day. In addition, Stage I of GKWSP shares water with KMC, and supplies 5,000 m3/day and 2,000 m3/day, respectively for Asgiriya and Tennekumbura Reservoirs. The planned Kandy North Water Supply Project expects to extract 150,000 m3/day once it is complete. Extensive water quality surveys in the area have been carried out by NWS&DB and study teams connected with donor agencies such as Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA). In one such study carried out by JICA for the feasibility of Kandy North Water Supply Project (in 2012), quality of both surface and groundwater at several pre-selected sites have been examined during dry weather as well as during wet weather. Physico-chemical parameters, heavy metals, pesticides and bacteriological quality have been measured. Mahaweli River waterat the project location has shown high levels of contamination due to leachate arising from Gohagoda garbage dump. Extremely high concentrations of nitrogen have been reported in the Mahaweli River in addition to high levels of zinc and iron.

Groundwater In Kandy area, the cover of the overburden is relatively thin and therefore there is a good yield exists for groundwater in rock masses, which are joined, fractured and (sources, distance possibly weathered. Such rock masses comprising of quartzite, limestone, and calc- from the site, local gneiss bands provide a very good yield. The data on groundwater availability in the uses and quality) project area is very sketchy, and therefore it is not possible to exactly quantify the availability, yield and capacity within the project area. Groundwater table is relatively shallow in areas close to the river. However, due to the sloping terrain the groundwater table lies fairly deep in hilly areas. Houses located in the valley areas, use shallow well water for domestic consumption; however, use of such wells is not widespread due to the availability of pipe-borne water. Most of the residents in the area use pipe-borne water for consumption, but their old wells are still in use for purposes such as bathing and washing. The groundwater is not extracted in large quantities for water supply projects or for

9

commercial purposes, in contrast to neighboring areas such as Bokkawela, Aladeniya etc., where there are bore wells used for water supply. The groundwater quality has not been extensively studied with compared to that of surface water. However, the groundwater quality is expected to be relatively better than surface water although the presence of Gohagoda soil waste dump site is a major concern as the leachate could be contributing to pollution of both surface and groundwater.

Flooding and The road trace profile (vertical alignment) of the road stretch (Ch. 0+000~14+440 Drainage km) considered under the proposed development is either flat or consists of mild to moderate/steep slopes in an undulating terrain. Therefore, despite being located in the close proximity of Mahaweli floodplains, no historical records of past flooding are available for any of the road segments under consideration. However, the downstream of Bridge 5/5 (at Ch. 10+880; Appendix V1 Figure 24-1 & 2) is reported to have undergone flooding intermittently with flood depths rising up to 0.6 m (pers. comm.). The road stretch appears to have adequate drainage systems in place at present. The existing gentle to moderate/steep slopes drain flood waters towards the storm drains, canals and the river in the immediate downstream, causing no major floods in the area even after heavy downpours. Nevertheless, several blocked culverts and minor issues in side- and cross drainage flows were encountered at certain locations (See below for further details). The mean annual rainfall in Kandy is about 2250 mm. Small patches of paddies and wetlands are sporadically located within the project area providing a minimal capacity of flood storage. Traces of water accumulation and paths of concentrated flows presumably have occurred after recent extremely heavy storm events can be seen in the lowermost parts of the terrain (eroded roadside ditches/drains at Ch. 12+460 (Figs. 27-3), cross drainage flow at Ch. 13+060 (Fig. 28-2 & 3)). These minor issues have occurred due to temporary blockage of existing drainage system or lack of lined drains as mentioned above leading to run-on flow over carriageway, temporary ponding or minor flooding in the adjacent localities. However, these issues are not significant in the project area and can easily be avoided by ensuring adequate maintenance and routine checks. Issues related to flooding/drainage: Blocked culverts at Ch. 1+045 (Culvert 2/1), Ch. 2+060, Ch. 4+230; Ch. 9+160 (Fig.20-4), Culvert 7/4 at Ch. 12+580; Totally blocked LHS opening as in Fig. 27-4, Culvert 7/3 at Ch. 12+840; Totally blocked due to siltation and LHS sidedrain is blocked and discontinued by concrete byroad as shown in Figs. 28-1, Culvert 7/7 at Ch. 13+060; Totally blocked due to siltation and overflowing even during minor storm events as shown in Figs. 28-2 & 3, Culvert 8/1 at Ch. 13+200; Partly blocked due to a house and diversion as in Fig. 28-4, Culvert 8/8 at Ch. 14+040; Blocked due to unauthorized construction of access with steps/stairs as shown in Fig. 30-2.

Other issues: Eroded embankments and abutment scouring at the bridge across Polgolla Vidyala

10

Mawatha (School Lane) at Ch. 4+600 (Fig. 10-1). Eroded open earthen drains were found at Ch. 12+460 and other steep road sections with earthen drains. Roadside and toe drains are required at Ch. 12+840 and all other sections with steep road gradients. Cross drainage flow due to blocked drains at Ch. Ch. 13+060 (Fig. 28-2 & 3). Strom drainage/irrigation return canals are located alongside of the road at Ch. 4+350~6+280 (Figs. 10-1, 12-1 & 2) and Ch. 10++870~10+910 (Figs. 23-4, 24-2). Culverts and Bridges: The cross drainage opening sizes provided at minor culvert locations and bridges (at Ch. 1+260, 1+640, 3+620, 9+280, 10+880, 13+500 are adequate and no issues have been reported. Bridges at Ch. 4+360, 4+590, 5+560, 5+820, 5+860, 6+020, 6+080, provided along the irrgation canal traversing parallel to the road stretch are adequate, but minor issues such as embankment slope erosion and abutment scouring are observed (Fig. 10-1).

Landslide Prone Kandy district is considered as one of the landslide vulnerable regions in Sri Lanka. Areas The past landslides in /Getambe (~6.0 km from the study site) have caused loss of life, damage to property, and disruption to services and traffic. According to the Environmental Sensitive Area Map (Annexure III) of the Central Enviornmental Authority, the entire project area is located within a Landslide Prone Area. In the road section between Ch. 0+000 to 14+440 km, the road is bounded by steep to moderate slopes at several locations (Ch. 5+410 ~ 5+470; Fig. 12-3, Ch. 9+240 ~ 9+300, Ch. 10+560 ~ 10+600; Fig. 23-1, Ch. 13+500 ~ 13+650; Figs. 29-1 & 3, Ch. 14+000 ~ 14+200; Figs. 30-2 & 31-2, and others as specified in Section 11a) and disturbance to existing embankments may be required for grade and bend correction. The road section Ch. 0+000 ~ 2+580 traverses within 60 m of the Mahaweli River and the right side of the road embankment bounded by the river edge has a steep slope 5.0~10.0 m high and left unprotected in most areas at present. Culvert lead- away canals are not provided or blocked at some locations, causing storm water to directly pass along the embankment slope leading to soil erosion. Nevertheless, the risk of landslides can be mitigated by properly addressing the issue by providing engineered soil embankments where natural slopes are presently exposed or existing slopes are to be disturbed, further ensuring adequate surface drainage and toe protection by means of well-connected drain system, soil anchoring, gabion/rubble masonry, concrete retaining structures, etc. Based on preliminery field studies and related analyses, the Landslide Studies and Services Division of the National Building Research Organization (NBRO) has reported that no locations with significant landslide risk (potentially vulnerable areas) are located in the road stretch and thus, detailed designing and implementation of specific structural mitigation measures are not required. Therefore, nominal provisions for embankment strengthening, enhanced drainage and silt control in the above identified sections with steep exposed slopes as provided in the design

11

proposals are deemed adequate.

Air quality The road trace lies southeast of Kandy City where air pollution levels have been reported to be very high. The proposed trace is not situated within a valley hence (any pollution accumulation of air pollutants is very unlikely. Table 5.1 gives the average annual issues) levels of NO2 and CO2 measured in 2001 in Kandy. Table 5-1: Average annual levels of air pollutants of Kandy and Colombo cities measured in 2001. (Source : Abeyratne et al., 2006) Annual average level (ppm) Parameter Kandy Colombo NO2 0.031 0.026 SO2 0.032 0.018

The average annual levels of NO2 and SO2 indicate that Kandy city is more polluted when compared with Colombo. However, the area where the proposed project lies has up wind and hardy any down wind is observed. Hence trans boundary effect seems to be negligible therefore ambient air quality seems to be better than that Kandy city.

Noise level and Noise levels along the road trace were measured and indicated in Table 5-2 (from vibration Katugastota to Madawala) and Table 5-3 (from Madawala to Rajawella). (Any anticipated Noise levels measured indicated higher background levels predominantly due to issues) vehicular movements. It was clear from the levels of measurements that at townships ambient noise levels were high and in between townships values were comparatively low. Noise levels varied between 63-72 dB (A) indicating somewhat higher background levels by the side of the road. There were no activities encoded to cause high vibration levels. Hence the ambient vibration levels could be assumed to be negligible. Table 5-2: Noise levels along the Katugastota to Madawala road trace measured as Leq in dB(A) for maximum period of 5 min. Chainage Noise Level (km) (Leq) dB(A) 0+050 67.0 0+200 70.0 0+700 66.0 1+200 65.0 1+700 67.0 2+200 67.0 2+700 68.0 3+200 68.0 3+700 66.0 4+200 65.0 4+700 69.0 5+200 65.0 5+700 69.0 6+200 72.0

5.2 Ecological features – Eco-system components The road rehabilitation work starts 500 m away from Katugastota Junction (Figure Vegetation 1.1 and 0 + 000) and ends at Digana Junction (Fig. 31.3 and CH: 14 + 440). The (trees, ground cover, main land use types found along the road trace are commercial establishments, aquatic vegetation) public building such as schools, offices, hospitals, religious places etc., home gardens, abandoned lands, reservations of Mahaweli river and marshy lands including abandoned and cultivated paddy lands.

Details of vegetation types found along the road trace are described below. However, during the study, rapid screening has been done, hence details of riverine (reservation) vegetation could not be observed.

Road side vegetation Intentionally planted road side vegetation (Acasia melenoxylon) could be found along the right hand side (RHS) of road stretches from chainage 0 + 660 to 0 + 740 and chainage from 1 + 510 to 2 + 280 (Figures 4.2, 5.1 and 5.2) of Katugastota – Madawala road. This tree line was planted along the river bank of Mahaweli River. Apart from Acasia melenoxylon trees, there are few Kumbuk (Terminalia arjuna), Kottamba (Terminalia catappa), Tabebuia rosea, Amba (Mangifera indica), Pulun (Ceiba pentandra) trees. Other than large trees, shrubs and grass species are grown as ground cover along the river bank. Along the Madawala – Rajawella road, few scattered individual tress found as roadside vegetation. It should be noted that some

13

trees are found to be larger trees with a diameter at breast height is more than 1m.

Home gardens Home gardens are common along the road trace. The common species found in home gardens were Mango (Mangifera indica), Coconut (Cocus nusifera), Araliya (Plumeria obtusaa), Acasia sp., ornamental plant species such as Bougainvillea etc. (Figures 20.8, 27.2 and 28.2).

Riverine vegetation and abandoned lands The riverine vegetation is prominent along the banks of the Mahaweli river and canals that cross the road trace. As the riverine vegetation, scrub jungles could be observed in most of the areas. Common species that observed during the rapid environmental screening were Kithul (Caryota urens), Kottamba (Terminalia catappa), Ittha (Schefflera stellata), Wathu Palu (Mikania cordata) and Acasia melenoxylon Presence of wetlands The main wetland habitats that could be found along the road stretch were cultivated and abandoned paddy lands (Chainages between 8 + 360 ~ 8 + 420, 9 + 280 ~ 9 +

380, 10 + 880 ~ 10 + 960) in Madawala – Rajawella road (Figures 18.1, 18.2, 20.8, 24.1 and 24.2). Along Katugastota – Madawala road stretch, there were no prominent wetland areas within the close proximity of the road trace. Considering the paddy lands, some are being cultivated and some are abandoned.

Fish and fish Fish and fish habitats are present in the Mahaweli river which at certain locations habitats flow close to the road. However, fish sampling was not deemed necessary and hence not carried out during the rapid environmental screening study.

Birds (waterfowl, During the screening study, bird species were recorded along the road trace. There migratory birds, are waterfowl species and terrestrial bird species among the recorded list of species. others) However, recorded migratory species was low since the study was conducted during early November which is the start of the migratory season of birds. It should also be

noted that making observations of bird species had been a difficult task as study was conducted during the day time and it was a rapid study along the trace. According to the sensitive area map produced by the Central Environment Authority Presence of special (CEA) (Annexure III), the whole area along the road transect is considered as habitat areas (special sensitive as this particular locality is listed under land slide prone as well as erosion designations and prone areas. Further, the riverine habitats of the Mahaweli river is important and the identified sensitive road stretch from from Chainage from 1 + 280 to 2 + 280, is very close to the river zones) where the 60 m reservation is not be observed, as required by regulations.

Part of Victoria, Randenigala, Rantambe Sanctuary (VRR Sanctuary) is situated close to National Institute of Corporative Development (Chainage 2+000). However, distance between road trace and buffer zone of VRR Sanctuary is more than 500 m (Annex III) and hence there is no impact on the VRR Sanctuary.

Other features Atharagalla Junior School CH:12 +420 (Figure 27-1), A. Rathnayake Central Residential/Sensitive College and Madina Natinoal School CH:5 +550 (Figure 12-4) are the three main Areas schools located on this road trace. Of them Atharagalla Junior school is located little

(Eg, Hospitals, away from the main road and a strip of about 100m exists between the road and the Schools) Madina National school. However A. Rathnayake Central college is located just adjacent to the main road (Figure 20-1) . Loyal Ladies college and Polwatta college at the chainage 4+ 590 (Figures. 10.1 and 10-3) is located much away from the main road.

At the Chainage 4+300 Manikhinna Divisional hospital, MOH office and the staff quarters are located (Figures 23-2 and 23-3) . The hospital and the MOH office are located close to the road and a part of the canteen of the hospital would be affected for road widening.

In Polgolla beyond the chainage 3+400 a concentration of many institutions related to training and higher education are located. i.e. Open university (Fig. 5-1), Sri Lanka youth training centre, National Institute of Corporative training, Pathadumbara Technical College, Local Government Training Institute. At the section 1+250 Katugastota Samudradevi Girls College and at the chainage 0+250 Katugasota divisional hospital is located.

Traditional Along the road trace in some locations, away from the main road traditional home economic and gardens have been observed. Most of the traditional paddy fields have been cultural activities abandoned. At the chainage 3+100 a traditional Kandyan cascading type paddy field was observed.

Archeological Recorded Archeological sites along this road trace are Siddhartha Pothgul Viharaya resources at the Chainage 3+100 (Figure 22-2) and Kondadeniya Raja Maha viharaya (Figure 8-1) but these are located slightly outside the road trace. (recorded or potential to exist)

7. Environmental Effects and Mitigation Measures

7a. Screening for Potential Environmental Impacts

Screening question Yes No Significance of the effect (Low, moderate, high)

1 Will construction and operation of the Yes Low Project involve actions which will cause Most of the interventions are carried out along the road trace hence no physical changes in physical changes in the locality topography and landform except at the bend correction/widening at chainages Ch. (topography, land use, changes in water 1+280~1+420, Ch. 1+620~1+700, Ch. 2+640~2+720, Ch. 2+760~2+860, Ch. 2+950~3+100, bodies etc.) Ch. 3+600~3+700, Ch. 3+800~3+950, Ch. 4+700~4+800, Ch. 5+150~5+250, Ch. 5+280~5+400, Ch. 5+500~5+580, Ch. 5+700~5+800, Ch. 6+380~6+500, Ch. 6+820~6+980, Ch. 7+920~7+800, Ch. 8+920~9+050, Ch. 10+260~10+360, Ch. 12+020~12+400 and Ch. 14+320~14+380 close to Digana end where landform would be altered very lightly. In addition, minor changes will be possible in the case of extension of shoulders at either side of the carriage way. However, no major alterations in terms of physical changes to topography, land use, and water bodies would occur due to this project.

2 Will the Project involve use, storage, Yes Low transport, handling or production of Transport of material and construction activities will emit dust, and fugitive particles. substances or materials which could be However, the affected area is small and mitigation is straight forward; therefore significance harmful to human health or the of the effect can be considered as low. environment or raise concerns about actual or perceived risks to human Dust and other particulate matter will be deposited on roofs, windows, open areas of health? households, plants and treesand may be unpleasant and/or create health hazards to vulnerable persons in the neighborhood. However, this effect would be limited to a short time period.

18

3 Will the Project produce solid wastes Yes Low during construction or operation? During Construction:

The project interventions, which mainly involves re-surfacing will not produce significant amounts of construction debris or solid waste. There will be small quantities of spoilage (construction debris) produced during demolition of existing structures (mainly temporary) and pavements, excavation of trenches, cut and fill activities, debris from the rock blasting and material storage. This is notable in the Digana junction where some acquisition and widening of the road stretch is needed. During operations: Good solid waste collection practices will lead to alleviation of any solid waste-related problems. There will be street sweepings, solid waste collected at garbage bins/ bays and dump areas which need regular collection and disposal. In addition, debris and sediments, floating matter and other solid waste carried by surface drainage which can be collected at manholes, catch pits etc. needs proper disposal. Regular cleaning of side drains and the road side will also generate such material. Culverts will also generate spoil material.

4 Will the Project release pollutants or any Yes Low hazardous, toxic or noxious substances to There will be bituminous material used during overlay and re-surfacing of roads, bituminous air? laying of carriage way and shoulders. Paints and solvents used for road markings can emit toxic and noxious air-borne substances.

5 Will the Project cause noise and Yes Low vibration or release of light, heat energy Noise and vibration will be generated during drilling and blasting, excavation of trenches, or electromagnetic radiation? compaction and transport of material etc.

It is envisaged that the small boulders could be broken in to pieces only by drilling by means

19

of hydraulically driven machinery while large pieces of rock boulders will be removed by chemical blasting so as to minimize the anticipated high noise and vibration. However sporadic high noiselevels could be expected on temporary basis hence, low impact. In the sensitive areas such as schools, hospitals and religious places (Atharagalla Junior School CH:12 +420 (Figure 27-1), A. Rathnayake Central College and Madina Natinoal School CH:5 +550 (Figure 12-4); At the Chainage 4+300 Manikhinna Divisional hospital, MOH office and the staff quarters are located (Figures 23-2 and 23-3); In Polgolla beyond the chainage 3+400 a concentration of many institutions related to training and higher education are located) there could be low impacts in terms of noise and vibration level during construction.

During weekdays and Sundays sporadic high noise levels will be a disturbance to religious and educational institutions. There are several hospitals [Chainage 4+300 Manikhinna Divisional hospital, MOH office and the staff quarters are located (Figures 23-2 and 23-3)] located by the road side for which sporadic high noise and vibration levels during construction will have a negative impact, however,considering the short duration of construction the significance of the impacts are low.

6 Will the Project lead to risks of Yes Low contamination of land or water from Stock piling of material will lead to washing away of soil and may increase turbidity and releases of pollutants onto the ground or TSS (Total Suspended Solids) in road side drainage and nearby canals/streams temporarily into surface waters, groundwater or during the construction. This is relevant for the raod strectch upto 2+280 where there are coastal wasters? several streams and Mahaweli River is located very close to the road stretch.

Construction activities in the proposed project site may also involve excavation and storage of soil, which might increase erosion risk of top soil layers and cause siltation during wet weather, if engineering best practices not adopted during construction. On the other hand, proper construction practices like soil compaction and stabilization,

20

turfing, maintaining naturally stable slopes, etc. will improve soil stability, reducing erosion risk and siltation effects during the construction phase and in the aftermath of project completion. The road trace stretching between chainage 0 + 0000 ~ 2 + 280 is identified to be within close proximity of a sensitive area in relation to Mahaweli River Annexure III. It is noted that endemic fish species are found in the riverine habitats of the project area, hence care should be exercised to control turbid matter contaminating riverine habitats as a consequence of erosion laden with silt, sediment or any other colloidal material. The specific recomendtions for embankment protection and enhanced drainage along the road streatch directly exposed to the riverfront targeting silt control as designed by RDA are important to be adhered to.

7 Will the project cause localized flooding No The project area is not located in a floodplain/flooding location. Despite the close proximity and poor drainage during construction to Mahaweli River (less than 60 m in the section Ch. 0+000~2+600, approx. 50~100 m to the tributary of Mahaweli River at the confluence in Polgolla up to Madawala Junction; Ch.

2+650 and Ch. 6+100), the road stretches are situated on the rising valley slope high above (2 Is the project area located in a flooding m~10 m above at first section and 2-4 m at latter sections) the floodplain. location? Construction Phase:

Raised embankments and raised finish levels, stock piling of construction debris and other materials, excavations in cut and fill sections, etc., may block existing drainage flow paths, causing flow stagnation leading to localized inundations on temporary basis.However, ensuring proper construction practices like provision of improved drainage network, maintaining naturally stable slopes, etc. will improve drainage conditions, reducing flood risk during the construction phase and in the aftermath of project completion.

21

During Operation: Lack of routine maintenance may lead to silting of drains/culverts and cause local inundation/ overtopping of drain.

8 Will there be any risks and Yes Low vulnerabilities to public safety due to Construction phase: physical hazards during construction or operation of the Project? The project involves widening at two critical locations at the Digana Town Centre and at Madawala opposite Madina National School. These two locations are critical due to heavy

pedestrian and vehicular movement. All the safety measures deployed in "Best Engineering Practices" need to be adopted during the construction. In General, disturbance to pedestrians, motorcyclists and motorists may be very likely on a temporary basis due to traffic congestions. Safety issues in terms of injuries due to construction work, drilling and blasting operation using heavy machinery, working in slopes could be anticipated. However, such incidences can be avoided with proper precautions exercised on health and safety aspects. Operation phase: During the operation phase, a smooth traffic flow can be expected and particularly due to correction of undesirable curves traffic problems and potential accidents that are prevailing at present can be overcome. After rehabilitation, the road stretch will be mostly clear of obstacles. Therefore, motorists and cyclists tend to travel faster, perhaps recklessly. This could bring in injuries in terms of accidents particularly in bends and curve sections (Ch. 2+660~2+700, Ch. 3+620~3+720, Ch. 5+260~Ch. 5+380, 6+800 ~ CH 6+900) and locations with high gradients and super elevations. However, with the proper signage this impact could be considered as low.

22

9 Are there any transport routes on or Low around the location which are susceptible Throughout the road trace, there are several major and minor roads such as 10th Mile post to congestion or which cause road, Pitiyagedera – Wattegama B 369 Road, Wawiina road B 205, Kukuloya Road, environmental problems, which could be Menikhinna road, Wawinna Walala Road, Levella Polgolla road, Amunugama Walala road, affected by the project? Uyanwatta road and over 25 local roads.

It is likely to cause temporary congestion on those roads during construction near the entrances. Creation of dust and noise are the potential environmental impacts which are temporary in nature. Due to the temporary closure of the roads during asphalt overlay the traffic would be diverted to nearby roads making the traffic volume of those roads increased. However, there are many connecting roads so that the impactscan be easily mitigated. Only a very few dwelling units will be affected depending on the time of excavation. It is likely to cause temporary congestion on those roads during construction near the entrances. Potential environmental impacts would be creation of dust and noise during construction which is temporary in nature. Trucks which transport material and movement of other heavy vehicles used for road construction will congest the local roads along transport routes.

10 Are there any routes or facilities on or Low around the location which are used by Yes, similar to above item 9; the public for access to recreation or other facilities, which could be affected They will be affected due to traffic built up if the project site is not properly managed. by the project? U.Y. Jinadasa play ground in Menikhinna and several religious places and schools along the road are the widely used such establishments; Use of road to access commercial establishments and residential areas may be temporarily

23

affected but will not be completely cut off. There are several roads as mentioned above providing access to religious places and residential areas but not for significant recreation facilities. Most of the religious places are visited on Poya days and Sundays. Therefore, the likely impacts during construction period such as noise, dust and traffic congestions would not be a nuisance as construction work will not be carried out on Poya days and Sundays.

11 Are there any areas or features of high Low landscape or scenic value on or around The topography of the area has created several areas of high value scenic areas. i.e. at the the location which could be affected by road chainage 2+100 paddy field on either side of the road with the back drop of hilly areas the project? of thick tree canopy. However there will be no impact as the project will not disturb the view. These aesthetically pleasing areas can be better viewed after road construction and that it will create a positive impact.

12 Are there any other areas on or around Yes Low the location which are important or The road transect from Katugastota to Rajawella via Madawela lies along the river bank of sensitive for reasons of their ecology e.g. Mahawali River at Chainages 0 + 000 ~ 2 + 280 (Annexure III). As per EIA regulation (Part wetlands, watercourses or other water 111 of the schedule of the Gazette extra Ordinary No. 772/22 of 24th June 1993 and bodies, the coastal zone, mountains, subsequent amendments to National Environment Act of 1980) development within a 60 m forests which could be affected by the buffer zone from a river needs to be considered for its impacts on the river. The distance project? between Mahaweli River and existing road is less than 60 m at Katugastota at chainage from 0 + 000 ~ 2 + 280. The river bank is generally densely vegetated and the road trace at chainages between 0 + 000 ~ 0 + 640 and 0 + 760 ~ 1 + 500 is lined with commercial establishments along the river bank. Therefore,, negative effects from the the full stipulated riverine buffer zone not being there would be low and completely mitigated if mitigatory measures proposed in Table 7b are adopted during construction.

24

Strom drainage/irrigation return canals are located alongside of the road at Ch. 4+350~6+280 (Figs. 10-1, 12-1 & 2) and Ch. 10++870~10+910 (Figs. 23-4, 24-2). Walala Tank/Irrigation Resrvoir with a waterway extent of 2.25 hectare is located about 100 m upstream of the road at Ch. 10+880, but no impact to this water body is envsaged due to the proposed project activities.

13 Are there any areas on or around the Yes Low location which are used by protected, The Mahaweli River which flows close to the road transect (Chainage from 0 + 000 ~ 2 + important or sensitive species of fauna or 280) provides habitat for several endemic and native fish species such as Gal pandiya (Garra flora e.g. for breeding, nesting, foraging, ceylonensis), Dankola Pethiya (Puntius singhala), Walapoththa (Ompock bimaculatus), and resting, migration, which could be Gan theliya (Mastacembelus armetus). Hence care should be exercised to prevent washing affected by the project? away of material laden with silt, sediment or any other colloidal material that causes high turbidity in surface runoff. Where the embankments are steep and prone to erosion, as mentioned above, low levels of impacts could occur but these impacts are generally mitigatable.

14 Is the project located in a previously No No such green fields are encountered. undeveloped area where there will be loss of green-field land

15 Will the project cause the removal of Yes Low trees in the locality? In areas where road widening is planned, a few trees would need to be removed. Further, during rock blasting and rock removal along the road, specifically along chainage 14 + 420 floral species may be affected. In the sections where there is a necessity to have safety measures also some trees have to be removed. The effects from tree removal are minimum

25 and it is recommended to follow mitigatory measures as outlined in 7b. Trees found in below mentioned chainages (Table 7.1) along the transect, especially those located within the proposed walkway and shoulders, might disturb the construction activities. However, the proposed construction activities can be carried out while preserving the trees and it is recommended to incorporate existing trees worth retaining into the overall layout of the proposed design, wherever it is safe and practical, to provide a mature and established appearance. Those in the road reservation, as documented, below should be preserved.

In order to enhance the soil stability after removal of tree species

artificial/engineered structures can be used. In addition, large holes may be created after removing of trees, therefore immediate filling is vital in order to avoid water logging and accidents. It is not necessary to remove large trees for the proposed project that are situated at the edge/ middle of the pedestrian walk way (Table 7.1). These trees should be preserved during construction and incorporated into the road layout, unless there is a major safety hazard. Branches that are a safety hazard and obstructing construction activites can be trimmed, if

required.

Suitable plant species such as Madhuka longifolia (Mee), Terminalia arjuna (Kumbuk), Tectona grandis (Teak) and Mesua ferrea (Na) can be planted to compensate the damage caused to the environment due to construction activities.

When disposing debris, it must be ensured that waterways and drainage paths will not get blocked; the material will not get washed away by runoff and will not be a nuisance to the public.

It must be also ensured that excavated earth material and construction debris are not stockpiled at different locations along the constructed roadway but swiftly disposed to recommended sites as instructed by the engineer.

When transporting spoil and debris should be covered with tarpaulin.

Hazardous materials, such as left over paints, waste oil and butimen, should be handled by competent authorities who are registered with CEA.

8. Conclusion and Screening Decision

Summary of environmental impacts: The road proposed for rehabilitation is an existing road which is currently serving as a main artery for vehicles moving from the North of Kandy city to the east and south-east. All rehabilitaton work will take place on the exisiting ROW excepting at Digana and Madawala junctions where bend corrections will be made by cutting into the embankment on the LHS. Considering the physical characteristics of the area and the proposed interventions, most of the environmental impacts described in the EMP caused by project activities are not expected to have any signififcant impact and are related to dust/noise generation, siltation, safety hazards, traffic congestion and other general impacts which can be mitigated with good construction, site management and public safety practices.

Chainges from 0 + 000 ~ 2 + 280 where the road travels within the 60 m buffer of the Mahaweli river is a sensitive area according to the sensitive area classification of the Central Environmental Authority. However, impacts to the riverine habitat from silt laden surface run off is considered insignificant given that this can be easily mitigated where the road is directly exposed to the buffer zone (which is a short stretch given that most of the roadside is built or vegetated).

Similarly, impacts to archaeological sites are also considered low as they are located away from the road and away from locations where limited drilling and rock removal will take place near the Digana and Madawela junctions. However, consultations with the CEA and the Department of Archaeology is recommended to obtain their no objection given the following considerations;

With regards to landslide mitigation, the RDA has incorporated suitable slope stabilization structures in critical locations, especially near the Digana junction where the curve correction will require cutting into the hill embankment, The National Building Research Oroganization (NBRO) which is the Government Authority on landslide protection has inspected the road and reported that no locations with significant landslide risk (potentially vulnerable areas) are located in the road stretch and thus, detailed designing and implementation of specific structural mitigation measures are not required. Therefore, nominal provisions for embankment strengthening, enhanced drainage and silt control in the identified sections with steep exposed slopes as provided in the design proposals are deemed adequate.

9. EMP implementation responsibilities and costs The overall responsibility of ensuring compliance with safeguard requirements lie with the PMU supported by the RDA while the contractor will be responsible for implementing the provisions of the EMP. In addition, the RDA will be directly responsible for reviewing the proposed design to ensure that all design related mitigation measures mentioned herein are implemented. The overall supervision will be carried out by the in-house staff of the PMU supported by the Engineer of RDA who is responsible for the overall design and supervision of the proposed sub-project. Any consequent design modification will be reflected in the project cost. Environmental monitoring will be carried out largely through visual observations and compliance monitoring using the checklist provided in the EMF by the Environmental Officer of the PMU and the contractor jointly. The Environmental Officer will need to visit the site on a weekly basis and report on issues and performance on EMP implementation to the RDA and PMU. .

70

Most of the mitigation measures described in the EMP are deemed as incidental to construction work and included in the contract. However, the following costs need to considered as specific mitigation costs.

Mitigation Measure Location Cost Soil Erosion control Between 0 + 000 ~ 2 + 280 and NBRO to estimate and give it to any other area. See 3c, 3b 5 in the RDA. EMP Temporary soild erosion control measures will be covered under temporary works of the contract. Removal of trees See table 7.1 Included in the Engineer’s estimate Dust screens for houses Whenever encountered Needs to cover them with simple coveres such as polythene or similar material. Only nominal cost should be provided under contingencies Silt barriers for canal outlets 3b When encountered Needs provision of check of EMP dams/silt traps and sediment removal. Only nominal cost should be provided under contingencies Dust control in the case of When encountered One water bowser is meant for removal of overburden as given wetting about 100 m in 3b of EMP Embankment stabilization AS given in the NBRO Included in the Engineer’s report/EMP Section 11a & 11b. estimate Vibration monitoring for Digana and Madawela & when Cost varies depending on the drilling and blasting work encountered elsewhere extent to be blast, however a contingency item has to be set aside for the contractor to be used, if needed
