EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

EXISTING ENVIRONMENT

38. The summary of the existing environment of the Project site is described in the table below:

Item Description Topography The Project site has hilly terrain with elevation ranges from RL62 m and Terrain to RL168 m. The highest point found at the rock outcrop towards the northeast of the site which will be left undisturbed. The lower terrains are found generally towards the southwestern and southern portion.

Geology Based on the Geotechnical Report, indicates that site is predominately underlain by the Kenny Hill Formation. The age of this formation is Mesozioc or younger and mainly comprises of a series of interbedded quartzites, shale, sandstone with occasional phyllites exposed at or near the base. Land use The site is currently gazetted as a committed residential use. It was observed to be have been partially cleared by an unknown party prior to the EIA study. Various vegetation has grown over the site.

Land use within 1km of the site are Rasah Kemayan Golf & Country Homes, Hijayu & Nusari development of Bandar Sri Sendayan, small commercial activities and Zenith International School.

Land use within 3km of the site are Kg. Gadong Jaya, Kg. Felda Sendayan, various Seremban S2 and Bandar Sri Sendayan developments.

Climate The climatic information obtained from the nearest meteorological station of Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA), Sepang (latitude 2° 44' N, longitude 101° 42' E; 16.3m above MSL) for data from 1999 to 2013. From the data obtained, it reflects that the area receives high annual rainfall and relatively uniform high humidity and temperature as summarised below:  Average annual rainfall of 170.7 mm.  Mean annual temperature of 27.2oC.  24 hour mean relative humidity from 80.6%.  Predominant wind directions are from north followed by north, northeast, southeast and south

Hydrology The entire Project site falls within the catchment of Sg. Kayu Ara and Drainage basin (catchment area of 0.72 km2).

Sg. Kayu Ara flows towards the southeastern direction along the southern boundary of the Project site before discharging into a channelized drain and ultimately joins Sg. nearby Kg. Baru Mambau (approximately 5km downstream).

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Item Description Drainage and There is no specific existing drainage system observed within the Flooding Project site. The runoff will flows into both Sg. Kayu Ara and the existing aquaculture ponds along it.

No flooding was observed on Sg. Kayu Ara within the immediate vicinity of the Project site as it is located in the upper catchment area Ambient Air Ambient air quality monitoring was carried out at three locations for Quality TSP, SO2, and NO2. The results were compared with Malaysian Ambient Air Quality Standard (MAAQS).

Results show that ambient air quality is well within the recommended safe limits. TSP readings ranged from 53-57 µg/m3. SO2 and NO2 were not detected.

Surface Water River water quality monitoring was undertaken at two locations and Quality the results were compared with Class IIB of the National Water Quality Standards

BOD and COD level were recorded to be between 1 mg/l and 3mg/l – 6mg/l respectively. AN level ranges between 0.16 mg/l – 0.20 mg/l and TSS level ranges from 13 mg/l – 16 mg/l.

Heavy Metals were not detected except for Copper, Manganese, Zinc, Iron, Barium, Fluoride, Color, and Formaldehyde. The source of pollution is most likely from the existing aquaculture ponds and commercial activities (restaurant & hardware business) direct upstream of the sampling location.

Environmental Environmental noise level monitoring was conducted at three Noise Level locations. The results were compared with the DOE Guidelines for Surburban Residential Category.

The result indicated noise during daytime (Station N3) and nighttime (all stations) exceeded the limit. The possible sources are from dogs barking and insects. And vehicles passing by.

Vibration The results shows that the Peak Vector Sum (PVS) was below the Level Curve 4 and Curve 8 – 16 based on Schedule 6 (Recommended Limits for Human Response and Annoyance from Short Term Vibrations) of the Planning Guidelines for Vibration Limits and Control in the Environment (for residential receiving land use).

Traffic Access to the site can be from Persiaran Sendayan – Mambau, Persiaran Bandar Sri Sendayan, Persiaran Sendayan – Nilai (1265), Persiaran Nusari 3 and Persiaran Utama S2/F. These raods are used mainly as alternative travel routes between Seremban, Seremban S2, Bandar Sri Sendayan, Labu, Sepang, Mambau and and generally operate at free flow at all times.
