CONCLUSION

Based on external monitoring of the management plan of environment, safety and health MON-2301 sub-projects, the following conclusion has been drawn: 1. The contractors of sub-projects have some knowledge of labor safety and health. However, they don’t have any information of minimization and mitigation measures of adverse impact on environment, environmental impact assessment and its management plan. 2. Besides of doing the engineering job with high quality, the contractors and PIU should consciously do measures of environment, labor safety and health. 3. According to the law on environmental impact assessment, PIU and PMU should send the request to make general environmental impact assessment by local environmental authority before the launching new sub-projects. Therefore, the sub-projects, that will launch in 2015 should follow the law. 4. The measures of MPESH that written by the specialist, should do by the contractors under the local authority supervision. For instance, the contractors can ask supervision for environmental measures from the local authority of environment, health and safety issues can be asked from the local specialized inspection agency, and socio-economic issues also can be asked from a social worker at the local governance. 5. None of the contractors of the sub-projects have been appointed an environmental worker. 6. The contractors have regulation on labor safety and health issues. But, they do not have regulation on environmental issues. Based on the aforesaid conclusion and observation during the field works, the following recommendation has been developed.

54/60 Second report on external environmental monitoring

RECOMMENDATION

The following recommendations have been drawn for the ADB, PMU, PIU and the contractors based on the results of external environmental monitoring on the sub-projects. Considering these recommendations, it is possibly to mitigate adverse impacts of the project on the environment, socio- economy and public in the near future. In addition, it is possible to avoid legal liability for the environmental delict, which might be incurred in the future. Herein: ADB: 1. According to Mongolian law on environmental impact assessment, the EIA of sub-projects has to be done before the project implementation. So, EIA should do by local environmental authority or Ministry of Environment, and Green Development depends on the impact range of the sub- projects. 2. An environmental specialist and an external monitoring specialist should work on all projects that will be implemented in the future. Their work would be a main indicator of the ecological oriented policy of ADB. 3. Before the project began, the environmental quality of the project territory was studied by the DEIA Company, and its result reflected in the DEIAR. It is true that mitigation of the adverse impact on the environment was done by the PIU and the contractor, according to the EMaP and EMoP, and its external monitoring was executed by the environmental specialist. Furthermore, it is necessary to do environmental quality monitoring research after the project implementation. This is a good opportunity to compare environmental quality at three different times “past-present- future”, and assess the actual impact of the project on the environment. In addition, the local people mostly have a negative impression during the project, but their impression positively changes after the project. Therefore, if environmental quality assessment such as air, soil, water, rehabilitation, is executed within a short time after the project closure, then the actual impact of the project on the environment can be assessed. 4. All projects, funded by ADB, should implement the standard MNS ISO 14064-2:2011 “Green house gases-Part 2: Specification with guidance at the project level for quantification, monitoring and reporting of green house gas emission reductions or removal enhancements." This will be an indicator of the world political-economic “green” policy implementation and will give a good opportunity for minimization of the adverse contributions to earth climate change. 5. New laws on nature and environment, approved in June, 2012 by the Government, have to implement in practice.

PMU and PIU: 1. The rights and duties of the external environmental monitoring specialist need to be officially introduced by the PMU to the PIU and the contractor at the beginning of the work. This will help to avoid misunderstandings between the specialist and the PIU and the contractor during the monitoring. 2. The contractor must be required to hire an environmental specialist or to assign environmental responsibility to one of the managerial staffs. 3. New laws on nature and environment, approved in June, 2012 by the Government, have to implement in practice. 4. PMU or ADB needs to organize an integrated training on environment, health and safety for the contractors before the sub-project launch.

55/60 Second report on external environmental monitoring

Contractor: 1. When beginning the project, it is best to hire an environmental specialist or to assign environmental responsibility to a health and safety manager, so that he/she controls the implementation of the MPESH. 2. There should be a schedule of MPESH, control of its implementation, collection of financial bills and a financial plan that made for MPESH execution. 3. A careful reading of the MPESH and understanding of it will help to avoid a potential accidents and loss and amenability, which may happen in the future. 4. Old ways of removing various kinds of waste, such as the use of landfills, runoff, burning and blowing, should be replaced by more modern ways. These include mobile bio-toilet and mobile containers for solid and liquid waste collection, which can drastically improve the evaluation of EMM of the contractor. Such mobile containers can be reused many times. Therefore, it is necessary to invest in proper waste disposal. This will increase the contractor’s reputation; as well encourage the environmental-economic policy of the state. 5. It is necessary to implement the standard MNS ISO 14064-1:2011 “Green house gases-Part 1: Specification with guidance at the organization level for quantification and reporting of green house gas emission reductions or removal enhancements." This will be an indicator of the contractor’s “green” policy implementation and will give a good opportunity for minimization of the adverse contributions to earth climate change. 6. New laws on nature and environment, approved in June, 2012 by the Government, have to implement in practice. It will help you to avoid legal liability for the environmental delict in the future. 7. Generally, environmental information and knowledge of contractors are inadequate. Therefore, they can collaborate with environmental vocational organization. 8. It is necessary to develop the environmental policy and internal regulation of the company, and to hire staff who will be responsible for the environmental policy implementation. By the implementation of the aforesaid recommendations, we will achieve “Environmentally friendly economic policy and social development."

APPENDIX MANAGEMENT PLAN OF ENVIRONMENT, SAFETY AND HEALTH

The contractor should follow all mitigation measures in the EIA that made by the local environmental authority. PMU and Ministry of Construction and Urban Development have been sent the request for EIA to the local environmental authorities. Besides of that, all requirements of environment, health and safety that written in the Mongolia laws should implement. Related to the sub-project activity and local environmental characteristics, some of the mitigation measures do not need to implement or additional measures have to do. Both cases, the rationale should write in the report. Brief definition of potential impact: It is very clear that environment, health and safety issues will be adversely affected by the all kind of activities of the sub-projects. According to the Mongolia laws and ADB requirement, MPESH has to implement. Source of the potential impact: All kinds of activities such as construction work, transportation, waste disposal, worker camp and earth work and etc. Legislation:  Law on environmental protection  Law on land  Law on soil protection and prevention of desertification  Law on water  Law on natural flora  Law on environmental impact assessment  Law on air  Law on waste  Other regulations and standards that related to aforesaid laws Monitoring requirement: MPESH has to be done at the specified period and make a conclusion. If necessary, additional requirement is given by the environmental consultant. MPESH focuses on protection to human health and provision of safe and pleasant working and living condition of workers and locals by protection and prevention of all kinds of pollution of environmental components. Financial source: Some of the activities in the MPESH can be done by no cost, and some are coinciding with major activities of the sub-projects. Therefore, no extra cost will be required. Only few works will require additional cost, and it can be spent from contingency budget. In this case, the contractor should discuss with PMU beforehand. The environmental consultant is only responsible for the monitoring of MPESH implementation. Duration and responsible: All measures that mentioned the following table have to be done by the contractor. During means that measure should implement from the very beginning to the end of the project, the beginning means that measure should implement at the starting phase of the project, and result should be visible until the end of the project. The ending means that measure should implement at the end of the project.
