6 EXISTING ENVIRONMENT
6.1 Introduction
This chapter presents an overview of the existing environmental conditions surrounding the Project area. The discussion is limited to the factors and environmental components that could have a direct impact on the Project, or that could be impacted by the development or operation of the Project.
Information presented in these sections has been drawn from published literature, government agencies records and literature studies as well as field investigations and primary data collection.
Information on the existing environment will be utilised for assessing the degree of impact from the development of the Project towards the environment which will be discussed in Chapter 7 of this EIA Report.
6.2 Physical Environment
This section outlines the existing physical characteristics of the Project site and its surroundings.
6.2.1 Topography
Kemaman Districts which covers an area of 253,560 ha is located at the south of Terengganu. General terrain throughout Kemaman is flat with 31.7% of it is covered by vegetation.
The Proposed Project is sited on a flat area, at level of 5.8 m (19 ft) to 7m (23 ft) above mean sea level (AMSL) within Teluk Kalong Industrial Estate (TKIE). Currently the Proposed Project site is a vacant land, surrounded by other industries; majorities are related to services for petroleum and chemical industry. Plate 6.2.1 show the existing condition of the Project site.

6.2.2 Geology and Soil
Based on the Geological Map of Peninsular Malaysia 1985, the underlying geological characteristics of the Project site were of the Quaternary which existed 2.588 ± 0.005 million years ago. It consists of marine and continental deposits: clay, silt, sand, peat with minor gravel. The lithology of the area consists of unconsolidated deposits i.e. peat, humic clay and silt. The geological formation of the Project area is shown in Figure 6.2.2.1.
Based on the Reconnaissance Soil Map of Peninsular Malaysia 1968, the entire Project site is located on peat soil which falls under the on coastal plains and/or riverine category of alluvial soil series (shown in Figure 6.2.2.2). Peat soil is dark brown in colour. It is formed in wet climate and found in swampy areas. The peat soil has less nutrients and contains more organic matter. Nevertheless, the Project site has been reclaimed/filled during development of Teluk Kalong Industrial Estate.
6.2.3 Hydrology and Drainage System
Based on observation made during site visit, no river was found within the Project site. Sg Chukai, a tributary of Sg. Kemaman is the nearest river, the hydrology map is shown in Figure 6.2.3.1(b). Sg Chukai catchment covers an area of 377 km2 and among its tributaries are Sg Ibok, Sg Ruang, Sg Mekelok and Sg Bungkus. There is no water intake station downstream of Project site, the river flow is shown in Figure 6.2.3.1(a).
At present, the Proposed Project site is served with Teluk Kalong Industrial Estate drainage network system. There are two main drains located within the TKIE namely Main Drain 2 and Main Drain 3. Main Drain 2 serves the eastern and southern half of the TKIE meanwhile Main Drain 3 serves the northern part. Plate 6.2.2 shows the existing drainage available at the Project area.

6.2.4 Meteorology
Meteorology of an area can be described by wind pattern, rainfall amount, surface temperature and relatively humidity measured at the area. Kemaman District experiences an equatorial type of climate characterised by warm and humid weather all year round with intermittent rainfall. There are two distinct monsoon seasons, the Northeast Monsoon (from November to March) and the Southwest Monsoon (from May to September).
The meteorology of an area can be described by the wind pattern, rainfall amount, surface temperature and relatively humidity measured at the area. Meteorological data of the Project site was acquired from the nearest Malaysian Meteorological Service (MMS) station at the Sultan Ahmad Shah (SAS) Airport in Kuantan, which is approximately 80 km from the Project site. The meteorological station is located at 3° 47’ N, 103° 13’ E. In general, the climate of Malaysia is equatorial characterized by uniform temperatures, high humidity and copious rainfall throughout the year with little seasonal variation. Annual and Seasonal Wind Rose Summary covers data period of 1968 to 2017
6.2.4.1 Surface Wind
Wind flow pattern in terms of direction and speed is important to understand the role of wind in transporting and dispersing air pollutants. The wind pattern was recorded from 1968 to 2017. Annual wind record and profile are as shown in Table 6.2.4.1. Based on the wind profile, it is noted that the most prevailing wind flow is from the north (approximately 26.4% of the time) and southwest (approximately 11.2% of the time). Wind speeds are generally low occurring below 3.3 m/s for 62% of the time and rarely exceeding 5.4 m/s (1.9%). Higher wind speeds are typically associated with winds from the north, northeast, east, south and southwest. Calm weather occurs about 19.3% annually. The annual and seasonal wind rose is shown in Figures 6.2.4.2(a) and 6.2.4.2(b).

6.2.4.2 Temperature
Figure 6.2.4.3 shows the 24-hr mean temperature for each month of the year averaged over the period from 1968 to 2017. The graph shows that mean temperature varied from 25.1 °C to 27.5 °C with a range difference of 2.4 °C. Lower 24-hr mean temperatures is observed to be between November and February each year can be attributed to the high precipitation and high cloud cover during the wet northeast monsoon period. The highest 24-hr mean temperatures are observed in May. The mean annual temperature is 26.4°C

Noise measurements was conducted using a calibrated sound level meter and continuously over 24 hours period to represent 15 hours (7 am to 10 pm) day time and 9 hours (10 pm to 7 am) night time. Measured
parameters include Leq, Lmax, Lmin, L10 and L90. Extraneous and significant noise contributors were observed and recorded during the monitoring sessions.
Noise levels presented in Table 6.2.5.6, indicates that the Leq levels at N1 and N2 during day time were
within the guideline limit of 70 dB(A). Meanwhile, Leq levels during night time at both were within the guideline limit of 60 dB(A).

Although, there were also few respondents that are not from the mentioned villages but are working in the neighborhoods; hence, their opinions were also considered in this study. A total of 122 respondents were interviewed. A copy of the socioeconomic survey form is attached in Appendix 6.5.1. A general outlook of the responses can be summed up as follows: 6.5.5.1.2 Respondent’s Perception (Section A) The survey results showed that although the majority of respondents were not aware of the proposed project, there was a certain degree of apprehension, 36.89% of the respondent was not in favor of the project while 40.98% of them favor the project to be continued. Meanwhile, the remaining 22.13% of the respondent were uncertain of the project to be proceed by the project proponent as shown in Table 6.5.5.1. This is due to the concern of the environment; mainly air quality, river water quality, perceived health hazards, disruption of present livelihood and expected adjustment problems in new surroundings out-weigh whatever socio- economic benefits that may arise. However, despite the perceived agreement for the proposed project - many of the respondents nevertheless cautioned the proponent and relevant agencies over the wastewater discharge and air pollution from the incinerator; as well as the health and safety risk of the community. Accumulatively, all respondents agreed that there would be many significant impacts during all phases of the proposed project development. Most of who perceived it will negatively impact the community were concern of impacts during the critical operation stage. Most of the respondent who disagreed to the project were doubtful whether will the project proponent comply to the regulations provided as according to them, the air quality of the area is already degraded. As observed and relayed by respondents those who lived in Bukit Kuang; the nearby factory were the main contributory factors for contributing smoke and dust thru air pollution and as a consequence contribute to the degradation of the air quality within the area. This also raised concern over the health of the community of Bukit Kuang if the situation persistent or worsen.

Hence, some establishment for the information is necessary. There are three type of toilets (pit latrine, pour-flush latrine and flush toilet) used in the respondent’s household. Flush toilet is the common toilet type in a household with 72.99% followed by pit latrine with 18.98% and pour-flush latrine with 8.03%. On top of that, majority of the houses, 97.54% use pipe from Syarikat Air Terengganu (SATU) with exception of the houses that use opened well, tube well and gravity feed system by Ministry of Health (MOH) respectively. Apart from that, the local council provides garbage collection services to most of the neighborhood area. Thus, 89.84% of the respondent’s garbage are disposed safely while 2.34% dump their garbage in drains or rivers while another 7.82% burn their garbage as a method of disposal. Pest is also an issue that respondents have to deal with but, it is manageable; according to them. Regardless, mosquitoes are the most common pest in the area with 31.07%. From the survey, number in all respondent’s households were able to determined; hence, the total sample for health section is 601 persons. The number of women and men in the neighborhoods is quite balanced with 50.25% is man while 49.75% is women. Life style risk factors such as aging, poor nutrition, infection and exposure to toxicants can also increase susceptibility to illnesses. These life style factors can therefore be considered to cause acquired susceptibility for increased risk for environmental diseases. Those who belongs in the age group of below 1 year old (3.0%) and above 65 years old (3.66%) are prone to the health risk and more susceptible to the environmental diseases. Moreover, 68.03% households within the ZOI area consist of smoking people which can also promote health issues. Overall, the percentage of healthy people within the ZOI in a year is 89.68% over 10.32% of unhealthy people. The highest percentage of sickness is hypertension (27.42%) followed by diabetes (25.81%) and asthma (24.19%). Meanwhile, the percentage of healthy people within the ZOI in three months is 66.10% over 33.94% of unhealthy people with the most common sickness is cold/cough (34.31%) followed by fever (26.47%) and bloody cough / sputum (15.69%).

Table 6.5.7(a) shows the disease cases related to air pollution seen at Klinik Kesihatan Kijal in 2018. Eye and respiratory diseases as represented by conjunctivitis, upper respiratory tract infections, asthma and tuberculosis made up 5.3% and 16.7% of all adult and children cases, respectively. Cardiovascular diseases as represented only by hypertension made up 8.7% of all adult cases. Table 6.5.7(b) gives the disease cases related to water pollution seen at Klinik Kesihatan Kijal in 2018. Only one food poisoning case was reported at the clinic which made up only 0.006% of all adult cases. Therefore, waterborne and foodborne diseases are not very common in the area. Animal vectors and reservoirs may be associated with a poorly managed environment. Often, discarded containers that are improperly disposed or the presence of water within homes and surroundings may become excellent breeding sites for the mosquitoes which transmit diseases. Table 6.5.7(c) gives the disease cases related to animal vectors and reservoirs seen at Klinik Kesihatan Kijal in 2018. Only two dengue fever cases were reported, and they made up only 0.01% of all adult cases. Therefore, vectorborne diseases are also uncommon in the area. Table 6.5.7(d) gives the skin disease cases seen at Klinik Kesihatan Kijal in 2018. Of all these skin diseases, dermatitis and eczema, and urticaria are allergic forms of skin reactions that may be exacerbated by allergens and irritants that may be present in air pollution or dust. The skin disease cases made up 1.5% and 6.4% of all adult and children cases, respectively. The most common skin disease reported was disorders of skin appendages.

Eye and respiratory diseases as represented by conjunctivitis, upper respiratory tract infections, influenza, asthma, tuberculosis and pneumonia made up 6.6% and 22.7% of all adults and children cases, respectively. Cardiovascular diseases as represented by hypertension, heart failure, ischaemic heart disease and cerebrovascular accident made up 0.2% of all adult cases. Table 6.5.7(f) gives the disease cases related to water pollution seen at Klinik Kesihatan Batu 2.5 in 2018. There was no water pollution related disease reported in this area for both adult and children. Table 6.5.7(g) shows the diseases cases related to animal vectors and reservoirs seen at Klinik Kesihatan Batu 2.5. Only dengue fever cases were reported which made up only 0.02% and 0.009% of all adult and children cases, respectively. Table 6.5.7(h) give the morbidity statistics on skin disease cases seen at Klinik Kesihatan Batu 2.5 in 2018. Dermatitis and eczema were the most common types of skin diseases reported among adults, while cutaneous abscess/ furuncle and carbuncle, and cellulitis were the common types of skin diseases reported among children in this area. These skin diseases made up of 1.6% and 3.6% of all adults and children cases, respectively. The following morbidity statistics are regarding diseases related to the environment which were obtained from Hospital Kemaman for a period of one year, from January 2018 until December 2018. Table 6.5.7(i) shows the disease cases related to air pollution seen at Hospital Kemaman in 2018. Eye and respiratory diseases as represented by conjunctivitis, upper respiratory tract infections, asthma, tuberculosis, pneumonia and lung cancer made up 6.3% and 7.6% of all adults and children cases, respectively. Cardiovascular diseases as represented by hypertension, heart failure, ischaemic heart disease and cerebrovascular accident made up of 2.0% and 0.03% of all adult and children cases, respectively. Table 6.5.7(j) gives the disease cases related to water pollution seen at Hospital Kemaman in 2018. The water pollution related diseases as represented by dysenteries and food poisoning made up of 0.5% and 3.8% of all adult and children cases, respectively. Compared to adult, children reported a higher percentage of water pollution related diseases. Table 6.5.7(k) shows the diseases cases related to animal vectors and reservoirs seen at Hospital Kemaman. Dengue fever and malaria disease cases were reported, in which dengue fever is the most common vector borne disease reported. These animal vector and reservoir related disease cases made up of 1.1% and 1.0% of all adult and children cases, respectively. Table 6.5.7(l) give the morbidity statistics on skin disease cases seen at Hospital Kemaman in 2018. The skin diseases as represented by cutaneous abscess/ furuncle and carbuncle, cellulitis, urticaria, disorders of skin appendages and erythemas made up of 0.1% and 0.06% of all adults and children cases, respectively. Table 6.5.7(m) shows the prevalence rates of selected communicable diseases in Daerah Kemaman in 2018, in comparison with the prevalence of these diseases in Malaysia in 2017. The prevalence rates for the waterborne, foodborne, vectorborne and zoonotic diseases were generally much lower than the nation’s rate. This means that these communicable diseases are not major health issues reported in this district.
