This document is the Initial Environmental Examination (IEE) for the construction of the new 132 kilovolt (kV) double circuit Transmission Lines (from 220 kV Rohri substation to existing 132 kV Gambat substation 63 kilometers (km) and in-out (interconnection of existing 132 kV Rohri to Gambat transmission line with Rohri New substation, 11.2 km) that forms subproject No. 2 (RGTLs) under Tranche 1 of the Asian Development Bank (ADB) Multitranche Financing Facility (MFF) Power Transmission Enhancement Investment Program (the Program). This IEE presents the results and conclusions of environmental assessment for the proposed construction of Rohri to Gambat transmission line Subproject and is submitted by the Government of the Pakistan (the Government), Ministry of Water and Power and National Transmission and Dispatch Company (NTDC). The Rohri to Gambat transmission line subproject (RGTL SP) is to be considered for early improvement under the Program and requires environmental assessment under ADB operating procedures. An IEE has been carried out to fulfill the requirements of ADB Guidelines (May 20031 2). This IEE study report is used to complete the Summary SIEE , the sub project along with the D.G.Khan to Loarlai Transmission Line sub project are being shifted from Tranche 3 of the MFF to Tranche 1 and as part of the request to ADB for this reallocation of sub projects a SIEE (Dated May 2009) has been prepared and submitted to ADB .3 2. The Investment Program is proposed to be approved by ADB in 2009. The total cost of the RGTL SP is estimated at US$ 10.88 million. ADB will fund the design, civil works and procurement of equipment. The Project involves the construction of new 132 kV 74 km double circuit transmission lines from the new 220 kV grid station (GSS) at Rohri to the existing 132 kV Gambat substation and interconnection with an exiting line. The proposed transmission lines are a part of the arrangement to disperse power from two independent power producers (IPP) gas based power plants. Figure 1 presents the arrangement of dispersal of power from the IPPs. 1 Initial project classification was carried out in 2008 and the Category is “B”. Most of the construction impacts will take place with only local impacts and there are no potential significant environmental impacts associated with the Tranche 1 subprojects construction. Initial environmental reconnaissance and Rapid Environmental Assessment carried out by consultants under ADB guidelines in June 2008 indicated that all the Tranche 1 subproject will be Category “B”. 2 ADB. 2003. Environmental Assessment Guidelines. Manila. 3 Category A projects that are deemed by ADB's chief compliance officer to be environmentally sensitive for the purposes of (i) the 120 day rule, and (ii) the environmental management plan requirement could involve projects that are near or in environmentally sensitive areas. At this stage no component of the Tranche 1 subprojects under consideration is actually within a critical area and therefore the MFF tranche as a whole is Category “B”. 2 Figure 1: Dispersal Arrangement of the IPPs 3. The environmental assessment requirements of the Government for power transmission projects are different to those of ADB. The environmental regulations of the Government categorize development projects into two schedules according to their anticipated potential environmental impact. The proponents of projects that have more adverse environmental impacts (Schedule II) are required to submit an environmental impact assessment (EIA). The Schedule 11 has gaps and it does not cover the entire range, policy is ambiguous and needs clarification. The consultants have initiated a dialogue with Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Islamabad for review of the policy. EPA Islamabad has agreed to open discussions with provincial EPAs and other stakeholders to revise the schedules, so that study requirements are not related to voltage or length of facilities being proposed to be added, but are related to significance of impacts. 3 B. Background 4. The condition of the power transmission system in Pakistan is inadequate to meet rapidly growing demand for electrical power. This situation limits national development and economic growth. To enable the transmission system to deliver newly added generating capacity the existing network has to be expanded. The overall contribution of power infrastructure also requires institutional arrangements and capacity that support strategic management of the sector, and planning and management of investments. Overall, the proposed Program facility has been designed to address both investment and institutional aspects in the electrical power sector. Impacts from the Rohri–Gambat 132 kV Transmission lines subproject are potentially significant, although not insurmountable, and compensation for crops and trees will need to be paid for the land that will accommodate the transmission line towers and the land within the right of way (RoW). The design for Rohri-Gambat 132 kV Transmission Line Subproject and the 132 kV in-out (connecting) line is sufficiently complete (June 2008) to permit IEE (Category “B”). 5. The Government has requested the ADB to provide finance for the Subproject to cover the construction of 74 km of double circuit transmission lines, to help fulfill the overall objective of the MFF to encourage economic growth and improve transmission

  • Caravan Report
    1 | P a g e 2 | P a g e Background: If there is ever to be a Third World War, many believe it will be fought over water, with South Asia serving as the flashpoint. The region houses a quarter of the world’s population and has less than 5 percent of the global annual renewable water resources. Low water availability per person and high frequency of extreme weather events, including severe droughts, further increase the vulnerability of the area. Any disturbance by the country upstream is likely to impact life downstream. Also, as heightened interests to tame and exploit a river through dams, canals and hydel projects suggest, this region will be a zone of constant confrontations in the future. The vision 2025 of Pakistan clearly indicates that the existing flow of water of rivers will be diverted through building various mega schemes for water conservation for energy and agricultural purposes. Such decisions and policies based on vested political interests will further aggravate the socio-economic conditions of deltaic communities of the Sindh. A large water share of the River Indus is utilized by Punjab Province. Resultantly, the lower end of the River Indus that used to be known as “Mighty River Indus” has been reduced to the level of canal shows only tiny inconsistent storage of water. Such a massive destruction of the River Indus has led to the death of livelihood of the deltaic people. The Pakistan government has been planning to build more dams on Indus River. The PFF believes that the indigenous people along with the other natural habitat have the basic right to use the land and water first.

  • Ca' Foscari and Pakistan Thirty Years of Archaeological Surveys And
    150 Years of Oriental Studies at Ca’ Foscari edited by Laura De Giorgi and Federico Greselin Ca’ Foscari and Pakistan Thirty Years of Archaeological Surveys and Excavations in Sindh and Las Bela (Balochistan) Paolo Biagi (Università Ca’ Foscari Venezia, Italia) Abstract This paper regards the research carried out by the Italian Archaeological Mission in Sindh and Las Bela province of Balochistan (Pakistan). Until the mid ’80s the prehistory of the two regions was known mainly from the impressive urban remains of the Bronze Age Indus Civilisation and the Pal- aeolithic assemblages discovered at the top of the limestone terraces that estend south of Rohri in Up- per Sindh. Very little was known of other periods, their radiocarbon chronology, and the Arabian Sea coastal zone. Our knowledge radically changed thanks to the discoveries made during the last three decades by the Italian Archaeological Mission. Thanks to the results achieved in these years, the key role played by the north-western regions of the Indian Subcontinent in prehistory greatly improved. Summary 1 Introduction. – 2 Archaeological Results. – 3 Discussion. – 3.1 The Chert Outcrops. – 3.2 The Late (Upper) Palaeolithic and Mesolithic sites. – 3.3 The Shell Middens of Las Bela Coast. – 3.4 The Indus Delta Country. – 4 Conclusion. Keywords Sindh. Las Bela. Indus delta. Prehistoric sites. Radiocarbon chronology. 1 Introduction Due to its location midway between the Iranian uplands, in the west, and the Thar or Great Indian Desert, in the east, the Indus Valley and Sindh have always played a unique role in the prehistory of south Asia, and the Indian Subcontinent in particular.
