Ltd. (INDIA) In Association With ALN Consultants Ltd (RWANDA), as Sub-Consultant December, 2016 MINAGRI / Rwanda Feeder Roads Development Project Environmental and Social Impact Assessment / Environmental and Social Management Plan for Indicative Feeder Roads in the District of Nyaruguru, Rwanda - Project ID: P 126498 0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Government of Rwanda (GoR) through the Ministry of Agriculture and Animal Re- sources (MINAGRI) and various Development Partners are intensifying their support to agriculture andfeeder roads infrastructure development to minimize post-harvest loss and high transport cost across the country. In this regards, the GoR launched the Rwanda Feeder Roads Development Project (FRDP) to develop agricultural marketing roads. This project received financing from IDA to rehabilitate, upgrade and maintain 500 km of indic- ative feeder roads in Rwamagana, Gisagara, Karongi and Nyamasheke Districts. The GoR also applied for additional funding for the rehabilitation of 1200 km of feeder roads in other sixdistricts, namely Gatsibo, Nyagatare, Nyaruguru, Gakenke, Rutsiro and Nyabihu Districts. Nyaruguru District is one of the 8 Districts of the Southern Province,made up of 14 sectors, themselves subdivided into 72 Cells and 332 Villages. The District covers a surface area of 1,007.1sq.km, with a population of 294,334 inhabitants1 and road network in poor condition.The MINAGRI through FRDP prepared the feasibility report for 194.56km of feeder roads in the district of Nyaruguru. The major activities associated with the indicative feeder roads in Nyaruguru District include rehabilitation/upgrading ofcar- riageway pavement with a standardised width, bridges and drainage work as well as- maintenance of rehabilitated infrastructures. The requirements of construction material have been identified along with the quarry and borrow area sites. The map showing dif- ferent feeder roads and sensitive receptors are presented below. 1Rwanda 4th Population and Housing Census, 2012 (NISR) ii | P a g e Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd (India) ALN Consultants Ltd (Rwanda) MINAGRI / Rwanda Feeder Roads Development Project Environmental and Social Impact Assessment / Environmental and Social Management Plan for Indicative Feeder Roads in the District of Nyaruguru, Rwanda - Project ID: P 126498 The average carriageway width of the indicative feeder roads ranges from 3.4 to 6.7 m and will be upgraded to 6m. The project plans to construct 571 culverts and bridges with a total length of 2,338 m and 116.71 km of drains. The requirements of construction ma- terials have been identified along with the quarry and borrow area sites. Twelve potential borrow areas were identified close to the project site. The quarry sites are outside the project site/ROW and have not yet identified. This identification will be done prior to con- struction and will be covered by the construction ESMP to be prepared and submitted by the contractor to the SPIU. The rehabilitation of the feeder roads requires the preparation of an Environmental and Social Impact Assessment/ Environmental and Social Management Plan (ESIA/ESMP) to ensure that the planned activities are environmentally and socially implemented in full compliance with Rwanda’s and the World Bank’s environmental and social policies and regulations. In this regards, MINAGRI/FRDP hired Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt. Ltd. (ICT) in association with ALN Ltd to carry out an Environmental and Social Impacts Assessment (ESIA) study in indicative feeder roads of Nyagatare, Gatsibo, Nyaruguru, Nyabihu and Rutsiro Districts. The present report focuses on the main findings from Nyaruguru District. The main objective of the assignment is to assist the Rwanda Feeder Roads Develop- ment Project (FRDP) of the Ministry of Agriculture and Animal Resources (MINAGRI), in conducting the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) and corresponding Environmental and Social Management Plans (ESMP) for indicative feeder roads in Nyaruguru District. The methodology adopted for the preparation of this report includes the review of feasibil- ity reports and detailed designs,national and international regulations related to environ- mental and social safeguards, district reports and field observations and measurements as well as discussions with project’s experts/ personnel. Public consultation meetings with different stakeholders were also conducted in the project area to explain the project and determine the beneficiaries’ opinions and concerns on the environmental impacts of the rehabilitation of feeder roads in the District. The assessment by the Consultant revealed that the District is a mountainous region characterized by steeper slopes, with an altitude of 1600-1900m and a very rich and vast hydrographic network. iii | P a g e Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd (India) ALN Consultants Ltd (Rwanda) MINAGRI / Rwanda Feeder Roads Development Project Environmental and Social Impact Assessment / Environmental and Social Management Plan for Indicative Feeder Roads in the District of Nyaruguru, Rwanda - Project ID: P 126498 The District is covered with diverse ecosystems that include both natural and artificial ecosystems. The total number of people within RoW reaches 9,108 people including 4,308 men and 4,800 women, grouped in 1,980 families. The findings of the ESIA study showedthat the feeder roads project in Nyaruguru has both positive and negative impacts. The positive impacts include employment opportunity, skill transfer, enhanced economy in rural areas, increase in social and industrial activity, improved transport system, saving in travel time, reduction in accidents, better drainage system, reduction in fuel consumption and green house gases. Potential negative impacts likely to occur include loss of 95.61 ha of land, 156trees and178 houses; increase in ero- sion rates, soil pollution due to spill of oil, grease and other chemical/ material on road, disruption of natural drainage, water pollution due to construction in water front structures or disposal of waste; increase in water demand, increased roads embankment landslides, risks to health due to poor waste disposal and outside labour employment; increase in noise and air pollution in the vicinity of the construction sites, increased road congestion, encroachment to protected areas, loss of biodiversity and 7 water points. The above adverse impacts are low to mediumand can be mitigated.Adopting a proper waste management system at the site, designing and constructing properly the drainage pattern, provision of sanitary facilities, construction of erosion control measures combin- ing vegetative measures and stone masonry,checkdams/ silt trap structures before dis- charging roadside runoff into water bodies, using motorized equipments in good working conditions during daytime, regular spray of water during road construction, application of traffic management measures or preparing alternative roads in case of road closure, pro- vision of protective equipments to workers, organizing awaireness campaigns for the pre- vention of communicable diseases, compensation for affected assets, etc. are among the measures to mitigate the potential adverse project impacts. The monitoring plan was set up to ensure the negative impacts are attenuated. The contractor and supervising firm will respectively implement the project and follow up its compliance with environmental and social safeguards under the direct supervision of MINAGRI/FRDP and Nyaruguru District. RDB will approve the report while REMA will oversee the project implementation and conduct environmental audit during the project implementation. Other stakeholders in- clude MININFRA/RTDA, MINIRENA/RNRA, MINALOC, RSB and World Bank. iv | P a g e Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd (India) ALN Consultants Ltd (Rwanda) MINAGRI / Rwanda Feeder Roads Development Project Environmental and Social Impact Assessment / Environmental and Social Management Plan for Indicative Feeder Roads in the District of Nyaruguru, Rwanda - Project ID: P 126498 Different stakeholders (local authorities, Community, Road Users and Cooperative and church leaders) were consulted to explain the project and give them the opportunity to express their views and concerns. Most of the consulted stakeholders are in favour of the project but requested for the compensation of their properties likely to be affected. The bills of quantities (BoQ) prepared for the cost of environmental and social manage- ment along with monitoring plans, are estimated at 646,140,000Frw which is 3.6% of pro- ject, including 601,370,000 Frw for ESMP and 44,770,000 Frw for environmental and so- cial monitoring plans. The Government of Rwanda will disclose this ESIA/ESMP report and will authorize the World Bank to disclose it electronically through its InfoShop. In view of the ESIA/ESMP results, it could be concluded that the project will bring sub- stancial benefits to the Nyaruguru community. The identified negative impacts can be mit- igated with the proposed Environmental
