3. Screening and assessment of potential impacts. ADB requires the consideration of environmental issues in all aspects of the Bank’s operations, and the requirements for environmental assessment are described in ADB’s Safeguard Policy Statement (SPS), 2009. As per the GoI EIA Notification, 2006, these subprojects do not require EIA study or environmental clearance. The potential environmental impacts of the subproject have been assessed using ADB Rapid Environmental Assessment Checklist for Water Supply. Then potential negative impacts were identified in relation to pre-construction, construction and operation of the improved infrastructure.

4. Categorization. Based on results of the assessment and ADB SPS, the subproject is classified as environmental Category B, i.e., the subproject is judged to be unlikely to have significant adverse environmental impacts. An initial environmental examination (IEE) is required to determine whether significant environmental impacts warranting an environmental impact assessment are likely.

5. Aim of this IEE is to (i) provide critical facts, significant findings, and recommended actions; (ii) present the national and local legal and institutional framework within which the environmental assessment has been carried out; (iii) provide information on existing geographic, ecological, social and temporal context including associated facilities within the subproject’s area of influence; (iv) assess the subproject’s likely positive and negative direct and indirect impacts to physical, biological, socioeconomic and physical cultural resources in the subproject’s area of influence; (v) identify mitigation measures and any residual negative impacts that cannot be mitigated; (vi) describe the process undertaken during project design to engage stakeholders and the planned information disclosure measures and the process for carrying out consultation with affected people and facilitating their participation during project implementation; (vii) describe the subproject’s grievance redress mechanism for

8 Initial Environmental Examination- Package 2A resolving complaints about environmental performance; (viii) present the set of mitigation measures to be undertaken to avoid, reduce, mitigate, or compensate for adverse environmental impacts; (ix) to describe the monitoring measures and reporting procedures to ensure early detection of conditions that necessitate particular mitigation measures; and (x) identify indicative costs and who is responsible for carrying out the mitigation and monitoring measures.

6. Description of the Environment. The subproject components are located in Betma, Depalpur and Gautampura towns and their surroundings. Weirs proposed in the all the three towns will be constructed across the rivers (Betma- Gambhir river and Depalpur and Gautampura- Chambal river), intake wells will be constructed on river banks. WTPs including clear water sumps are proposed close to the intake wells with sufficient government land. These components of the schemes are proposed away from the town and are mostly surrounded by agricultural lands and rivers. None of the components however proposed on any forest land. Other components like – OHTs, distribution pipeline network, domestic connections etc., are proposed within the limit of municipal boundary of the respective towns. The raw water transmission mains which are connecting intake well to WTP will be laid outside the town and clear water transmission mains from WTP to OHTs will be partly outside and partly within the municipality limit. Project area experience a subtropical climate, typical to north India, hot summers, cold and dry winters and monsoon rains. While there is no natural habitat left within the town areas, the areas near river intake wells are comparatively intact though most of the lands there too converted into agricultural use. There are no protected areas, like wildlife sanctuaries, national parks, nor there did any historically, archeologically protect areas in the vicinity. Towns are densely populated in the core/old town areas with narrow lanes mostly covering the residential areas with small and closely built houses, while other expanding areas of the towns are having broad lanes and sufficient spaces. Commercial areas are along the main roads with broad lanes having running traffic for most of the time.

7. Potential environmental impacts. The subproject area will not arise any significant adverse impacts due to: (i) small size population and their water demand, (ii) components proposed in the schemes are of comparatively is of small quantities & their effect will be locally which is manageable and controllable and (iii) predicted impacts are site-specific and likely to be associated with the construction process and are produced because the process is invasive, involving excavation and earth movements.

8. Environmental impacts arise due to the project design or because of the locations chosen for the project components are not significant. The proposed water supply schemes include creation of new water sources with the nearest /feasible surface water body. Schemes include construction of weirs (for all the three towns). Weirs across rivers are proposed for the storage of water to meet the water demand of 6 months during no flow period. Following are the details of sources selected for each of the towns:

a) The source of the Betma water supply scheme (WSS) is River Gambhir . This river is not a perennial river. As per information gathered from the local authority, the flows for about 5-6 months, mostly during monsoon, from late June / early July to November / December. Flow is considerable during the months of July to August; flow reduces significantly in November and December, and river gets completely dry in January and up to the onset of next monsoon in June. No flow data is available as

9 Initial Environmental Examination- Package 2A

there is river no gauging station on the river. Catchment area and rainfall based analysis indicated availability 58 MCM of water annually. The capacity of the weir is just about 1.4% of this water availability.

b) Chambal River is most suitable, dependable /sustainable surface source of water supply for Depalpur WSS. However for supplying water from Chambal River all the year around, a weir is to be constructed in the river. Reconnaissance survey was carried out in June 2015 along the river (from June 7th to 11th), and considering river banks and approachability, location near Tamalpur Village is selected for construction of weir. The maximum capacity of weir at FTL 498 m above MSL is coming as 1.94 MCM. c) The source of the Goutampura WSS is based on the river Chambal . The river Chambal is not the perennial river.. As per information gathered from the local authority The flow in the river reduced in the month of the Dec. to Jan. and gets dry after January. The site selected for the proposed weir have deep valley as well as have sufficient cross section to store the required demand of the year 2048. The flow data is not available as there is no flow gauge has been installed. Catchment area and rainfall based analysis indicated availability 338 MCM of water annually. The capacity of the both the weirs on Chambal for Depalpur and Gautampur is just about 0.5% of this water availability.

9. The height of weirs proposed to meet the water storage requirement, and also considering the height of river banks so as to limit the water storage / submergence to river course. Therefore there are no impacts due to submergence. Given the small storage compared to the total volume of water available in the river, no significant impacts envisaged on downstream. Given intermittent nature of rivers, there are no notable sensitive environmental features. There is no notable, protected or unique aquatic life in the river, and the fish is limited to local common species. National Chambal Gharial Sanctuary, established in River Chambal in its mid and lower reaches, is far away (about 300 km downstream) from proposed weir locations, and this distance is intercepted further by four major dams. Therefore the proposed weirs have no relevance to the sanctuary area. It is also proposed that weirs will be constructed as a vented structure, with open rectangular vents and gates; sill level of weir will be just above the river bed. On the sill there will be vertical slots to insert removable gates; gates will be closed prior to end of monsoon flows and opened prior to onset of heavy monsoon flows; this arrangement avoids silt accumulation and also prevents obstruction of heavy monsoon flows. As the package is implemented under DBO mode, the detailed design of weir will be conducted by the contractor after award of the contract. Water quality is good and there are no potential pollution sources in the vicinity that could affect the water quality. Necessary precautionary measures are suggested to avoid any impacts.

10. During the project construction phase, potential negative impacts may arise from disturbance of residents, businesses, increase in traffic, increase in noise level and dusts and the need to dispose moderate quantities of waste soil during construction phase and generation of sludge from the WTP during operation and maintenance phase. However, there are well-developed methods for mitigation, minimization to acceptable levels are proposed here.

10 Initial Environmental Examination- Package 2A

11. Environmental Management Plan As a part of mitigate measures in order to achieve acceptable levels in the negative impacts, an environmental management plan (EMP) has been proposed. All the locations are selected considering the minimum adverse environmental effects. These include (i) locating facilities on government-owned land to avoid the need for land acquisition and relocation of people; and (ii) laying of pipes in RoW alongside main/access roads, to reduce acquisition of land and impacts on livelihoods specifically in densely populated areas of the town. The EMP given here includes the design measures for (i) Weir and Intake well; (ii) safe disposal of sludge coming out of wash water tanks from WTP to reduce effluent (iii) energy efficient pumping equipment and (iv) quick leak detection and rectification to save the resources, etc. During execution phase, the EMP includes mitigation measures such as (i) implementation of traffic management plan in coordination with local traffic police to minimize traffic impacts (ii) awareness campaigns and consultations to inform residents and businesses of potential disturbances; (iii) provision of walkways and planks over trenches to ensure access will not be impeded; (iv) use of noise- dampening measures in areas with sensitive receptors such as hospitals, schools, places of worships and other silence-zones; (v) use of dust-suppression methods such as watering and/or covering of stockpiles; and (vi) finding beneficial use of excavated materials to extent possible to reduce the quantity that will be disposed off. As for the O&M phase, facilities will need to be repaired from time to time, but environmental impacts will be much less than those of the construction period as the work will be infrequent, affecting small areas only. The design of the WTP includes dewatering and drying areas as part of sludge management. The EMP includes mitigation measures and monitoring plan to ensure compliance to environmental standards during O&M phase.

12. The EMP will guide the environmentally-sound construction of the subproject and ensure efficient lines of communication between Madhya Pradesh Urban Development Company (MPUDC), project management unit (PMU), project implementing unit (PIU), consultants and contractors. The EMP will (i) ensure that the activities are undertaken in a responsible non-detrimental manner; (i) provide a pro-active, feasible and practical working tool to enable the measurement and monitoring of environmental performance on site; (ii) guide and control the implementation of findings and recommendations of the environmental assessment conducted for the subproject; (iii) detail specific actions deemed necessary to assist in mitigating the environmental impact of the subproject; and (iv) ensure that safety recommendations are complied with. The EMP includes a monitoring program to measure the environmental condition and effectiveness of implementation of the mitigation measures. It will include observations on- and off-site, document checks, and interviews with workers and beneficiaries.

13. The contractor will be required to submit to PMU, for review and approval, a site environmental plan (SEP) including (i) proposed sites/locations for construction work camps, storage areas, hauling roads, lay down areas, disposal areas for solid and hazardous wastes; (ii) specific mitigation measures following the approved EMP; (iii) monitoring program as per SEP; and (iv) budget for SEP implementation. No works are allowed to commence prior to approval of SEP. A copy of the EMP/approved SEP will be kept on site during the construction period at all times. The EMP included in the bid and contract documents. Non-compliance with, or any deviation from, the conditions set out in this document constitutes a failure in compliance.

14. Consultation, disclosure and grievance redress mechanism. The stakeholders were involved in developing the IEE through discussions on-site and public consultation at

11 Initial Environmental Examination- Package 2A several places in the town, after which views expressed were incorporated into the IEE and in the planning and development of the project. The IEE will be made available at public locations and will be disclosed to a wider audience via the ADB,MPUDC and PMU websites. The consultation process will be continued and expanded during project implementation to ensure that stakeholders are fully engaged in the project and have the opportunity to participate in its development and implementation. A grievance redress mechanism is described within the IEE to ensure any public grievances are addressed quickly.

15. Implementation Arrangements. Urban Development and Housing Department (UDHD) of Government of Madhya Pradesh is the Executing Agency and Madhya Pradesh Urban Development Company (MPUDC) is the Implementing Agency. Project Management Unit (PMU) attached to MPUDC is responsible for implementation, and will be supported by Program Implementation Units (PIUs). Several teams of Design Consultants, and a Program Management Consultant (PMC),will support PMU & PIUs. Infrastructure will be designed, built, and operated by DBO contractor for 10 years, after which it will be transferred to ULBs. Project Officer (Environment) at PMU and Assistant Safeguard Officer (ASO) at each of the PIU will be responsible for environment safeguards tasks, and will be supported by PMC. Contractor personnel will include an Environment, Health and Safety (EHS) supervisor.

16. Monitoring and Reporting. The PMU and PMC will be responsible for monitoring. The PMDC will submit quarterly and semi-annual monitoring reports to PMU, and the PMU will review and send the semi-annual monitoring reports to ADB. ADB will post the environmental monitoring reports on its website.

17. Conclusions and Recommendations. The subproject is therefore unlikely to cause significant adverse impacts. The potential impacts that are associated with design, construction and operation can be mitigated to standard levels without difficulty through proper engineering design and the incorporation or application of recommended mitigation measures and procedures. Based on the findings of the IEE, there are no significant impacts and the classification of the project as Category “B” is confirmed. No further special study or detailed environmental impact assessment (EIA) needs to be undertaken to comply with ADB SPS (2009) or GoI EIA Notification (2006). Project will require permission of Water Resources Department (WRD) for water abstraction, Weir and intake well construction for all the three towns, and consent of Madhya Pradesh Pollution Control Board (MPPCB) for WTPs. These permissions/approvals shall be obtained prior to award of contracts.

18. This IEE will be updated during the detailed design stage by the DBO contractor to reflect any changes, amendments and will be reviewed and approved by PMU.

Purpose of this IEE Report

5. ADB requires the consideration of environmental issues in all aspects of the Bank’s operations, and the requirements for environmental assessment are described in ADB’s Safeguard Policy Statement (SPS), 2009. The potential environmental impacts of the subproject have been assessed using ADB Rapid Environmental Assessment Checklist for Water Supply (Appendix 1). Then potential negative impacts were identified in relation to pre-construction, construction and operation of the improved infrastructure, and results of the assessment show that the subproject is unlikely to cause significant adverse impacts. Thus, this initial environmental examination (IEE) has been prepared in accordance with ADB SPS’s requirements for environment category B projects

6. To understand the environment-related aspects of the project, a detailed Environmental Analysis and Assessment study is required. The study will involve collection and analysis of information regarding the environmental issues related to the project and preparation of an Initial Environmental Examination (IEE) and Environmental Management Plan (EMP), to be duly integrated in the overall design of the project. The IEE study is expected to focus on the positive health and environmental benefits, through supply of safe drinking water and creation of integrated sanitary conditions in the project area/region. The proposed assessment study will suggest several environmental mitigation measures to be included in the project design, due to which the project is expected to have a net positive benefit for the people in the project area.

7. Betma, Depalpur and Gautampura are located in the Indore district in the central western part of Madhya Pradesh state. These are small towns having the status of Municipal Council (Nagar Parishad) and population as per 2011 census was: Betma- 15,999, Depalpur- 17,474 and Gautampura- 14,585. Improvement of water supply in these towns will be implemented under a single Design-Build-Operate (DBO) contract package. The objective of the subproject is to achieve safe and sustainable water services both in terms of services to customers, cost recovery, providing 100% coverage with continuous, pressurized and safe

14 Initial Environmental Examination- Package 2A drinking water services and achieving progressively increasing cost recovery by expanding the coverage and increasing operating efficiency.

III. DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT

A. Project Area 9. Project area comprises the urban areas and surroundings of Betma, Depalpur and Gautampura situated in Indore district in central western part of Madhya Pradesh state. Towns are located in same district, and in a distance range of about 80-100 km from each other. As per the census 2011, Betma had a population of 15,999, Depalpur had a population of 17,474 and Gautampura had a population of 14,585.

10. Subproject components are located within the urban and surroundings. While weir, intake well and WTPs are located outside the towns, all other components are located within the towns.

B. Existing Water Supply Situation 1. Betma

11. Water supply system in Betma is entirely dependent on ground water source in the form of tube wells. There is absence of dedicated water supply scheme as on today. Water supply to town is served by 17 tube wells located at different parts of city such as Chhota Betma, Dusshera Maidan, Shiv Ghat and Balaji. Out of 17 tube wells only 13 are in running condition. There is no Water Treatment plant. There is an existing clear water pipe line of 150 mm dia. Galvanized iron (GI) pipe. Pipe line has damaged at many spots and has leakage problem. Hence this pipeline is not taken into account for new system because it is undersized and by using of this pipe it will give high head, high head losses and negative pressure. The water is being supplied to the town, after preliminary treatment of chlorination. There are two sump wells and four overhead tanks (OHTs) in Betma. Conditions of all four OHTs are structurally good. Out of four overhead tanks two nos. are in use, remaining two OHTs could not be filled due to not getting the sufficient yield from the tube well. Total capacity of two OHTs in Betma is 600 KL through which water is supplied to all 15 wards in Betma. Water is stored in OHTs through pumping from two nos. of sump well.

12. Betma Nagar Parishad supplies approximately 0.6 milllion litre per day (MLD) of water. The duration and frequency of water supply is twenty minute on every day. Betma Nagar Parishad has divided 15 municipal wards into 4 zones for distribution of water supply. The per capita supply of water is 40 liters per capita per day ( lpcd).

2. Depalpur 13. The present water supply in Depalpur is mainly from tube wells. There are 12 nos. tube wells fitted with 10 horse power (HP)-12 HP motor pumps. The maximum water availability from tube wells is 0.60 MLD. The water from tube wells is being directly pumped on OHTs by adding bleaching power. There is a water treatment plant (WTP) and intake well on Chambal River in Depalpur, the same has been constructed in the year 1980. The water treatment plant is not in a good condition and is not been used presently by the Nagar Parishad. The intake well-constructed in the year 1980 is also in a bad condition and is not been used by the Nagar Parishad.

14. The maximum availability at present from groundwater sources is up to 0.60 MLD from which the average water supply is only 35 liters per capita per day in comparison to the standard norm of 70 lpcd as per standards set out in CPHEEO Manual of Ministry of Urban Development GOI for town. Ground water is not assured and educes after rainy season and moreover, in the years to come, the population will increase and the present rate of water supply from underground sources shall further reduce thereby creating water scarcity to the citizens of the Depalpur.

15. At present the water is supplied from the underground sources after disinfection by adding bleaching powder. The quality of water supplied is not monitored on regular basis. Thus the present Water supply system in the town is falling to deliver the demands due to limited source capacity, seasonal variations in availability, inadequate storage, poor network efficiency and low management capacity.

3. Gautampura

16. Water supply system in Gautampura is dependent on surface source. A Culvert of river Chambal (2.5 km away from the town) was converted to make shift stop dam structure by covering the circular closures (pipes) under the culvert. The water from this arrangement was brought and stored in the artificial lake which was created at a location called Kharcha. In order to conserve water and provide filtered water to the citizens, two dug wells were created near the lake. The water from these dug wells was then provided to the town. Eventually due to the creation of lake, the other water bodies in the town have also been recharged and the rise in water table in the surrounding areas has been tremendous. As a result of this now water approximately 0.62 MLD is being supplied to the town at the rate of 32 lpcd after 20% transmission losses at alternate day.

17. Another artificial lake is being created in the Runji area called Runji Talab. The natural rain water and ground water is stored here. One dug well is created near this lake from where conserved and filtered water is supplied to the Runji area citizens.

18. There is an existing clear water pipe line of 200 mm dia. ACP pipe. Pipe line has damaged at many spots and has leakage problem. Hence this pipeline is not taken into account for new system. The water is being supplied to the town after preliminary treatment of chlorination. There are two sump wells of total capacity 2.5 Lac liter and two OHTs of total capacity 700 KL in Gautampura. The condition of two overhead tanks is good. Total capacity of two OHT’s in Gautampura is 700 KL through which water is supplied to all 13 wards in

17 Initial Environmental Examination- Package 2A

Gautampura except ward no.1 & 2. Water is stored in OHTs through pumping from two nos. of sump well. Water is also supplied for the Gautampura town by 3 dug wells located near the artificial lake at Kharcha, approximately 1.5 km from the town and one dug well created near Runji Talab. 19. Gautampura Nagar Parishad supplies approximately 0.62 ML of water at alternate day. The duration and frequency of water supply is forty minute on alternate day. Gautampura Nagar Parishad is divided into 15 wards. The per capita supply of water is 32 lpcd.

C. Proposed Project 20. As the water table is depleting all over, therefore, now it is not a reliable source for a permanent scheme in towns. As part of this project, it is proposed to develop comprehensive water supply schemes in each of the project towns. Proposals include new reliable water sources, water treatment plants, OHTs, energy efficient pumping machinery, raw and clear water transmission mains and distribution network covering the entire population of towns. Project will also provide consumer connections with flow meters. Bulk flow meters are proposed at strategic locations to monitor the system performance efficiency.

IV. POLICY, LEGAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE FRAMEWORK

A. ADB Policy

22. ADB requires the consideration of environmental issues in all aspects of ADB’s operations, and the requirements for environmental assessment are described in ADB SPS, 2009. This states that ADB requires environmental assessment of all ADB investments.

23. Screening and categorization. The nature of the environmental assessment required for a project depends on the significance of its environmental impacts, which are related to the type and location of the project; the sensitivity, scale, nature, and magnitude of its potential impacts; and the availability of cost-effective mitigation measures. Projects are screened for their expected environmental impacts, and are assigned to one of the following four categories:

(i) Category A. Projects could have significant adverse environmental impacts. An EIA is required to address significant impacts. (ii) Category B. Projects could have some adverse environmental impacts, but of lesser degree or significance than those in category A. An IEE is required to determine whether significant environmental impacts warranting an EIA are likely. If an EIA is not needed, the IEE is regarded as the final environmental assessment report. (iii) Category C. Projects are unlikely to have adverse environmental impacts. No EIA or IEE is required, although environmental implications are reviewed. (iv) Category FI. Projects involve a credit line through a financial intermediary or an equity investment in a financial intermediary. The financial intermediary must apply an environmental management system, unless all projects will result in insignificant impacts.

24. Environmental management plan. An EMP, which addresses the potential impacts and risks identified by the environmental assessment, shall be prepared. The level of detail and complexity of the EMP and the priority of the identified measures and actions will be commensurate with the project’s impact and risks.

25. Public disclosure. ADB will post the safeguard documents on its website as well as disclose relevant information in accessible manner in local communities:

(i) for environmental category A projects, draft EIA report at least 120 days before Board consideration; (ii) final or updated EIA and/or IEE upon receipt; and (iii) Environmental monitoring reports submitted by the implementing agency during project implementation upon receipt.

B. National Environmental Laws

26. Environmental Assessment. The GoI EIA Notification of 2006 (replacing the EIA Notification of 1994), sets out the requirement for Environmental Assessment in India. This states that Environmental Clearance (EC) is required for specified activities/projects, and EC must be obtained before any construction work or land preparation (except land acquisition) may commence. Projects are categorized as A or B1 or B2 depending on the scale of the project and the nature of its impacts. None of the components of this water supply subproject falls under the ambit of the EIA Notification 2006, and, therefore no category assigned, and thus no EIA study and EC required for the subproject.

27. Applicable environmental regulations. Besides EIA Notification 2006, there are various 30 other acts, rules, policies and regulations currently in force in India that deal with environmental issues that could apply to infrastructure development. The specific regulatory compliance requirements of the subproject are shown in Table 4.

Table 4: Applicable Environmental Regulations Law Description Requirement Madhya Pradesh Prepared in accordance with the National Permission of WRD, State Water Water Policy, it states that “for environmental GoMP has been Policy, 2003 balance, skillful and planned management of obtained all types of developmental activities, forConstruction of economic use on equitable basis and in view Weirs and Intakes for of the prime importance of water for all all the three towns human and other living beings, an effective (River Chambal and and sound water policy is necessary”. Gambhir ) Policy is detailed in 17 sections dealing with different aspects of water resources. No. 7 deals with Water Allocation Priorities, and according to which drinking water supply shall have the highest priority followed by irrigation, power, tourism, etc. Water Resource Department is nodal department for permitting different uses of water resources. Policy also states that “clear provision for reservation of drinking water shall be made in irrigation projects” Water Act was enacted to provide for the prevention WTPs require CTE (Prevention and and control of water pollution and the (prior to start of Control of maintaining or restoring of wholesomeness of constriction) and CFO Pollution) Act of water, by Central and State Pollution Control (prior to start of 1974, Rules of Boards and for conferring and assigning to operation) from 1975, and CPCB/SPCBs powers &functions relating to MPPCB. amendments water pollution control.

The contractor shall provide equal wages and benefits to men and women for work of equal value or type.

28. ADB SPS Requirements. During the design, construction, and operation of the project the PMU and PIUs are required to apply pollution prevention and control technologies and practices consistent with international good practice, as reflected in internationally recognized standards such as the World Bank Group’s Environment, Health and Safety Guidelines (IFC’s General EHS Guidelines1 and Sector Specific (Water and Sanitation) Guidelines2). These standards contain performance levels and measures that are normally acceptable and applicable to projects. When Government of India regulations differ from these levels and measures, the PMU and PIUs will achieve whichever is more stringent. If less stringent levels or measures are appropriate in view of specific project circumstances, the PMU and PIUs will provide full and detailed justification for any proposed alternatives that are consistent with the requirements presented in ADB SPS. International acceptable air and noise quality guidelines are provided below:

V. DESCRIPTION OF THE ENVIRONMENT

Methodology Used for Baseline Study

29. Data collection and stakeholder consultations. Focused Group Discussion, field visits, site surveys and social surveys were conducted through the different wards covering every section of society was conducted and data collected and analyzed accordingly with respect to the proposed subproject sites and the with respect to the need of water supply in all the three towns here.

30. The social survey broadly covered the following:

(i) Project details, reports, maps, and other documents prepared by technical experts of design consultant team. (ii) Discussions with technical experts, municipal authorities and relevant government agencies like WRD, Revenue Department, Forest Department, MPPCB, etc. (iii) Secondary data from previous project reports & published articles, if any, and (iv) Literature on land use, soil, geology, hydrology, climate, socioeconomic, and planning documents collected from Government agencies and websites.

31. Ocular inspection. Several visits to the project sites were made during IEE preparation period in 2016 to assess the existing environment (physical, biological, and socioeconomic) and gather information with regard to the proposed sites and scale of the proposed project. A separate socioeconomic study was conducted to determine the demographic information, existing service levels, stakeholder needs and priorities.

VI. ANTICIPATED ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS AND MITIGATION MEASURES

34. Potential environmental impacts of the proposed infrastructure components are presented in this section. Measures to minimize/mitigate negative impacts, if any, are recommended along with the agency responsible for implementation. Monitoring actions to be conducted during the implementation phase is also recommended.

35. Screening of potential environmental impacts are categorized into four categories considering subproject phases: location impacts and design impacts (pre-construction phase), construction phase impacts and operations and maintenance phase impacts.

a. Location impacts include impacts associated with site selection and include loss of on-site biophysical array and encroachment either directly or indirectly on adjacent environments. It also includes impacts on people who will lose their livelihood or any other structures by the development of that site. b. Design impacts include impacts arising from Investment Program design, including technology used, scale of operation/throughput, waste production, discharge specifications, pollution sources and ancillary services. c. Construction impacts include impacts caused by site clearing, earthworks, machinery, vehicles and workers. Construction site impacts include erosion, dust, noise, traffic congestion and waste production. d. O&M impacts include impacts arising from the operation and maintenance activities of the infrastructure facility. These include routine management of operational waste streams, and occupational health and safety issues.

36. Screening of environmental impacts has been based on the impact magnitude (negligible/moderate/severe – in the order of increasing degree) and impact duration (temporary/permanent).

37. This section of the IEE reviews possible project-related impacts, in order to identify issues requiring further attention and screen out issues of no relevance. ADB SPS (2009) require that impacts and risks will be analyzed during pre-construction, construction, and operational stages in the context of the project’s area of influence.

38. The ADB Rapid Environmental Assessment Checklist in http://www.adb.org/documents/guidelines/environmental_assessment/eaguidelines002.aspis used to screen project for environmental impacts and to determine the scope of the IEE.

39. In the case of this project (i) most of the individual elements are relatively small and involve straightforward construction and operation, so impacts will be mainly localized and not greatly significant;(ii) proposed water abstraction from the sources is very small compared to overall water availability since it is going to use the existing water source as well, and the proposed Weir designed for the balance requirement on at the rate of 70 lpcd as per norms, so there is no area coming in the submergence due to the construction of this Weir & is confined to river course itself; (iii) most of the predicted impacts are associated with the construction process, and are produced because that process is invasive, involving excavation and earth movements; and some works are located in the reservoir and (iv) being mostly located in an urban area, will not cause direct impact on biodiversity values. The proposed project components locations are belongs to the government property and existing roads, hence land acquisition and encroachment on private property will not happen in this case.

A. Pre-Construction Impacts – Design & Location

40. Design of the Proposed Components. Technical design of the (i) intake well, including Weir, (ii) water treatment plant; (iii) raw water and clear water transmissions mains (iv) over head tanks, and (v) distribution network, connections, flow meters, etc., follows the

52 Initial Environmental Examination- Package 2A

relevant national planning and design guidelines, focusing on providing a robust system which is easy to operate, sustainable, efficient and economically viable. Besides, the project also included the following environmental considerations:

(i) Weirs to be constructed as vented structures, with open rectangular vents and gates with sill level of weir just above the river bed; in this arrangement, on the sill there will be vertical slots to insert removable gates; gates will be closed prior to end of monsoon flows and opened prior to onset of heavy monsoon flows; this arrangement avoid silt accumulation and also prevents obstruction of heavy monsoon flows (ii) For weirs across perennial rivers, a sluice gate will be provided in weir structure to discharge minimum water to downstream needs during no weir overflow period - this is not applicable to this project as no perennial rivers are proposed for construction weirs (iii) Recovering backwash water from treatment process. (iv) Treatment and disposal management of sludge from treatment process. (v) Minimizing water losses from pipelines by perfect jointing and alignments using appropriate techniques (vi) Designing the entire system to maintain optimal flow and terminal pressure, and optimising the overall energy usage (vii) Reducing the incidence of water borne diseases by providing 100% population including urban poor with potable water supplies (viii) Improve water use efficiency and reduce water wastage at household level by recording and monitoring the water usage, and charging the consumers as per usage; due consideration to urban poor (ix) Minimize unaccounted for water (UFW) losses using district metered area approach with flow meter and pressure logging arrangements to identify and rectify the leaks, and unauthorized connections (x) Using low-noise and energy efficient pumping systems

41. Water Source & Sustainability. As the subproject towns are located far from each other (25-30 km) there was no possibility of a combined source/ bulk water scheme. Therefore, independent water supply schemes are proposed for 3 towns separately based on the most feasible water source considering techno-economic and environmental considerations. Source – (a) Depalpur Town 42. Sources available in the vicinity of the project area

(a) Chambal River: - Flowing in south east direction of the town. The river is flowing approximately 7 km from the town. River is not perennial. Due to small water catchment area, flow ceases immediately after the monsoon is over. For drawing of 2.40 MLD from the river a storage structure shall be required having sufficient capacity for storing water for the period of 6 months in a year. Thus the storage capacity required shall be 1.27 MCM.

(b) Yashwant Sagar Dam: -Situated at south east direction of the town. The Dam is the approximately 15 km away from the town. It has catchment area of 485 Sq. km. and having gross capacity of 15.96 MCM. The irrigation area attached to the Yashwant Sagar Dam is 1500 ha and the water required for irrigation purpose is 8 MCM. But it cannot spare any amount of water to Depalpur as it is already used as a major source for Indore and Hatod town water supply schemes.

53 Initial Environmental Examination- Package 2A

(c) Narmada River :-The perennial River Narmada is approximately 90 km away from Depalpur. Looking to the large distance and high pumping, bringing water from Narmada will be not only very high in terms of Capex but also in Opex.

(d) Banedia lake:- It is situated inside the Depalpur town limit. It is having capacity of 6.43 MCM water. But the water has been authorized to use for the irrigation purpose only and it is not good enough for the drinking purpose.

43. Most Suitable Source of Water Supply: Looking to above, Chambal River is most suitable dependable /sustainable surface source of water supply because of the less distance and pumping cost. However for supplying water from Chambal River all the year round, a weir is to be constructed in the river. For the reconnaissance survey is being carried out from 07/06/2015 to 11/06/2015 in the river. Looking to the banks and approachability, the most appropriate location for construction of weir is near Tamalpur Village. The maximum capacity of weir at full tank level (FTL), 498 m above msl, is coming as 1.94 MCM.

44. Out of the available gross capacity of proposed weir on Chambal River, 50% shall be the losses on account of evaporation, pilferage and seepage. Thus the net useful capacity shall be 0.85MCM available for water supply to Depalpur for during non-rainy season of 6 months every year for next 30 years. The net available useful capacity will be sufficient to supply water @ 70lpcd to the design population of Depalpur. Taking 70lpcd for design population the clear water requirement is 2.00 MLD. Taking 15% treatment and transmission losses, the gross water requirement is 2.40 MLD. Thus 2.40 MLD water is required for the proposed project. Figure 11: Location of Proposed Weir

54 Initial Environmental Examination- Package 2A

(b) Source- Gautampura Town

45. Sources available in the vicinity of the project area

(i) Ground Water Source:- Presently Gautampura water supply is based on ground water. There are 14 tube wells in the town. Water is drawn from these tube wells. Most of the tube wells are in the bank of Runi talab and artificial lake created near Chambal Bridge. Total 0.62 ML water is supplied at an average rate of 32 lpcd. But during the summer yield of these tube wells reduces considerably. Private tube wells are extra deep ranging from 150 m to 300 m and even more. The drawl from these tubes well is very high. Hence ground water source is not sustainable. As per hydro geomorphologic map of the area prepared by National Remote Sensing Agency, Department of Space, Govt. of India, Hyderabad, the recharge conditions in the area is good to moderate.

(ii) Surface Source:-River Chambal flows from the western side of the town Gautampura. It is approximately 1002 m from the town. Near Gautampura river is not perennial. Flow of the river ceases in the month of November. Total Water demand of the town is 0.69 MCM in Yr.2048 and storage required in during non rainy period is 0.55 MCM (water demand in Yr.2048 is 1.90 MLD, required storage capacity for 240 days with 20% losses is 0.55 mcm) in Yr.2048. Hence after survey and investigation near Chambal bridge (towards ward no . 6 ) an weir 5 m high, 100 m long is proposed. At 5 m height of weir required storage of water 0.55 MCM is found. Hence it is justified that Chambal river is suitable source. Contour of 484 m is within valley of river. Details of volume with contour height are given below.

(c) Source Sustainability and Downstream Impacts due to construction weirs across Chambal River for Depalpur and Gautampura Towns 46. River Chambal is identified as source of water for Depalpur and Gautampura towns, and it is proposed to construct one weir each for the towns across the rivers. Proposed Depalpur weir location across Chambal is about 7 km from Depalpur town. Gautampura weir location is about 18- 20 km downstream (length of river course) of Depalpur weir location. Total length of Chambal River is 960 km and the proposed weir at Depalpur is situated at about 65 km (river length) from its origin, and Gauthampura weir location is further downstream, about 18-20 km from Depalpur weir. Both these weirs are located in initial reaches of river. There is an existing weir / dam across Chambal River, about 20 km upstream of proposed weir at Depalpur

Figure 12: Location of Depalpur and Gautampura Weirs on Chambal

47. Chambal River. Chambal River is one of the major rivers of Northern India, and is a tributary of Yamuna River, forming part of Gangetic basin. River originates in Singal chouri peak, near Mhow town, on the northern slopes of Vindhya Range, in the state of Madhya Pradesh. River flows mostly south to north / north east in its course of 960 km – from its origin, for about 345 km, it flows in south north direction in the state of Madhya Pradesh and then in mostly northeastern direction for about 225 km in the State of Rajasthan. The river course after flowing through Rajasthan forms border between Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh (for about 217 km), and then forms the boundary between Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh (for about 145 km). After this, the river flows through Uttar Pradesh for about 32 km before joining Yamuna River.

48. Chambal River is rain-fed, and known for pollution free fresh water, flowing through rugged terrain with a drop of 732 m from its origin to its confluence with Yamuna River over a length of 960 km. Of this about 300 m drop is within first 16 km of its course. With its

56 Initial Environmental Examination- Package 2A

catchment area of 143,219 sq. km, River Chambal is non-perennial in its initial courses, and as the catchment area contribution grows downstream, the river becomes perennial. Chambal, in its course of 960 km jointed by several of tributary rivers such as Shipra, Choti Kalisindh, Sivanna, Retam, Ansar, Kalisindh, Banas, Parbati, Seep, Kuwari, Kuno, Alnia, Mej, Chakan, Parwati, Chamla, Gambhir, Lakhunder, Khan, Bangeri, Kedel and Teelar. River flow varies considerably throughout the year with very high flows during monsoon to lowest flow in summer season. Average discharge of the river is about 450 m3 per second, maximum is around 2000 m3 per second, while minimum is in the range of 50-60 m3 per second.

49. The National Chambal Gharial Wildlife Sanctuary was established in 1970’s covering nearly 610 km of Chambal River from the downstream of Kota Barrage and up to its joining river Yamuna in Uttar Pradesh, across the three states to protect and conserve of critically endangered Gharial (Figure 1). The Chambal River sanctuary has good faunal biodiversity including 2 species of crocodilians – the mugger and gharial, several species of freshwater turtles, smooth-coated otters, gangetic river dolphins, skimmers, black-bellied terns, sarus cranes and black-necked storks. About 435 km section of Sanctuary, which includes about 60 km section of its tributary Parvati River, is under the jurisdiction of Madhya Pradesh. As stated above, proposed weirs at Depalpur and Gautampura are located in the initial course of river within 80 km from its course, and thus this location is almost 300 km upstream of sanctuary. Further, there are several major dams in this section of 300 m including Gandhi Sagar Dam, Rana Pratap Sagar Dam, Jawahar Sagar Dam, and Kota Barrage. Therefore the proposed weir location has no real significance with respect to Chambal Sanctuary. Figure 13: Location of National Chambal Sanctuary

Proposed Weir location

Figure 15: Chambal Sanctuary & Existing / Proposed Dams on Chambal River

50. River flow, source sustainability and downstream impacts. There are no flow- gauging stations located in or close to this stretch. River in this stretch, as per the

58 Initial Environmental Examination- Package 2A

information from local people and water resource department officials, given its limited catchment and rain-fed nature, is not perennial. The river is perennial in the medium and lower reaches. In the initial section, the river flows for about six to seven months in a year; flow usually starts with the southwest monsoon rains in late June / July and continues throughout post monsoon, northeast monsoon season (October-November) and up to January. Flow completely recedes from late January/February to onset of monsoon in late June/July. Flow also fluctuates considerably, with very high flows in the months of July and August, high flows in the months of September and October, medium flows in November to December, to a very low flow in January before complete dries out by end of January or February.

51. In the absence of flow records, the engineer’s estimate of volume of water availability is based on catchment area and rainfall analysis. As per the estimate presented below (see Table below), total water availability at the weir site is 338.7 MCM. Following Figure shows the catchment area of the river, up to the proposed weir site at Gautampura. Total catchment area is 1,243 sq. km, which is just about just 0.87% of the total river catchment area.

Figure 16: Catchment area of weir at Gautampura

52. There is an existing stop dam / check dam on 20 km upstream, and other than this there are no water holding structures or major water abstraction points in the river upstream. The proposed yearly water abstraction for both Depalpur and Gautampura is 1.82 MCM (1.27 + 0.55 MCM), which is just a fraction (about 0.53%) of total yearly water availability in the catchment, i.e. 338.7 MCM. This abstraction is negligible and not likely to

59 Initial Environmental Examination- Package 2A

have any impacts downstream. There are also no notable water abstraction points or users in the immediate downstream of the proposed weirs. There is one small village named Jalodiya located at about 2 km. River is not perennial, and flows for about 6 to 7 months a year, and the remaining 5 to 6 months it goes completely dry. With the construction of proposed weir with a small storage capacity with a fraction of total water availability in the river as stated above, there will be any notable changes in the flow regime is not going to change this flow regime post construction. Table 11: Catchment Area – Rainfall based Water Yield Estimate in Chambal River at Proposed Gautampura Weir Site Gautampura weir site 1 Catchment area (A) = 1243 Sq Km 2 Average rain fall (Maximum) (I) = 750 Mm 3 Average rain fall (Minimum)(I) = 450 Mm 4 Run off coefficient = 0.61 Assuming 50% covered and 50% uncovered = 5 Formula = AIR I Maximum rainfall = (1234X1000X1000X0.75X0.61) cum = 568672500 cum = 568.67 MCM Minimum rainfall = 338733000 cum Total Available water = 338.733 MCM

53. Ecological impacts. Although Chambal River, which is 960 km long and perennial in its mid and lower reaches with considerable ecological value and rich river aquatic fauna species as described above, in the upper reaches close to the source where the weirs are proposed is not the same. It flows intermittently and goes completely dry for about 5-6 months a year. There is no notable, protected or unique aquatic life in the river, and the fish is limited to local varieties. There is no commercial fishing taking place in this stretch of the river. As it is unlikely to have any notable changes in the river flow regime no impacts envisaged on downstream users or river ecosystem, due to construction of proposed weir. The proposed impoundment, in fact, is likely to benefit the environment through groundwater recharge and propagating aquatic life. Also, there is an already an existing check dam/weir, about 20 km upstream side of the proposed weir, and several minor and major dams in the downstream course, therefore no further impacts envisaged on river ecosystem such as maintaining physical processes and habitats downstream (include movement of fishes and sediment trapping etc., due to creation of new structure).

54. Moreover, it is proposed that weir will be constructed as vented structures, with open rectangular vents and gates; sill level of weir will be just above the river bed. On the

60 Initial Environmental Examination- Package 2A

sill there will be vertical slots to insert removable gates; gates will be closed prior to end of monsoon flows and opened prior to onset of heavy monsoon flows; this arrangement avoids silt accumulation and also prevents obstruction of heavy monsoon flows. Typical cross section of proposed weir is given below. As the package is implemented under DBO mode, the detailed design of weir will be conducted by the contractor after award of the contract.

55. Weir storage /submergence area: Following Figures shows the weir storage / submergence area of Depalpur and Gautampura weirs. The height of weir in both the cases is less than the height of the river banks, and therefore the water storage is confined to river course / flood plain, and there is no submergence of lands outside the river. Total water storage / submergence area at weir height is calculated as 19 ha in Gautampura and 61.3 ha in Depalpur., which is fully in the river. No negative impacts or acquisition of government of private or government lands anticipated.

(d) Betma Town 56. Source Identification : There are three surface sources near Betma town:-

(i). Kishanpura Pond:- It is earthen pond approximately 5 km away from the Betma town. The total capacity of the pond is 2.845 mcm. Out of which 2.493 mcm is used for irrigation. Dead storage capacity is 0.355 mcm. Fisheries are also done in this pond. There is no provision for drinking water from this pond. Also it is difficult to curtail agriculture for drinking purpose. This may arise farmer agitation. Hence it can’t be taken as water source for Betma town. (ii). Chambal River: There is Chambal River near Betma. Ghata Bilod in Betma Dhar road is nearest point from Betma town where Chambal river flows. It originates from Janapav mountain. (iii). Gambir River: - The another side of Betma town nearly 15 km in Betma Indore road there is a Gambhir River. The bank of river is deeper and wider than Chambal River. Gambhir River is not perennial. Flow of the river ceases in the month of November December. But there is possibility of getting sufficient storage of water by constructing weir on this river. Details of water demand at different stage during non rainy period are given below- Total water demand at intermediate stage (Yr.2033) -1.98 MLD (0.57 mcm for 240 days with 20% losses). Total water demand at ultimate stage (Yr.2048)- 2.47 MLD ( 0.71 mcm 240 days with 20% losses). Total water demand for Yr.2068- 3.20 MLD (0.92 mcm 240 days with 20% losses). After survey and investigation at Gambhir river an anicut 6.5 m high, 60 m long is proposed. At 5.5 m height of weir storage of water 0.55 mcm is found. It will fulfill water requirement till year 2030. The source of the Betma WSS is based on the river Gambhir . The river Gambhir is not the perennial river.. The flow data is not available as there is no flow gauge has been installed. As per information gathered from the local authority The flow in the river reduced in the month of the Nov. to December and gets dry after January. .

(e) Source Sustainability and Downstream Impacts due to construction weir across Gambir River for Betma Town

57. Gambhir River originates from Janapav near Mhow town in Vindyan mountain range. It is a tributary of Shipra River which in turn is a tributary of River Chambal. Gambhir River mostly flows south to north, and join Shipra River in Ujjain City. Shipra River joins Chambal River at Madhya Pradesh Rajasthan border in Mandasaur District. Total length of Gambir River from its origin to its joining Shipra River in Ujjain is 288 km, and its course is completely in the state of Madhya Pradesh. Proposed weir is located across Gambhir River near Kalariya village, about 12 km from Betma town. This location is about 33 km from the origin. There is a small weir about 5 km of upstream of proposed weir location. There are also small dams/weirs in its downstream course before it joins Shipra River near Ujjain.

58. River flow, source sustainability and downstream impacts. There are no flow- gauging stations on this river. River is rain-fed and is not perennial. The river flows for about five to six months in a year; flow usually starts with the southwest monsoon rains in late June / July and continues throughout post monsoon, northeast monsoon season (October-November) and up to December. Flow completely recedes from late December / January to the onset of monsoon in late June/July. Flow also fluctuates considerably, with high flows in the months of July and August, medium flows in the months of September and October and low flows in November to December, before complete dries out by mid or end of December.

59. In the absence of flow records, the engineer’s estimate of volume of water availability is based on catchment area and rainfall analysis. As per the estimate presented

65 Initial Environmental Examination- Package 2A

below, total water availability at the weir site is 51.8 MCM. Figure 1 shows the catchment area of the river, up to the proposed weir site at Betma. Total catchment area at weir site is calculated as 189 sq. km.

Figure 20: Catchment area of weir at Betma

60. The proposed yearly water abstraction is 0.72 MCM, which is just a fraction (about 1.4%) of total yearly water availability in the catchment (i.e.51.8 MCM). This abstraction is negligible and not likely to have any impacts downstream. There are also no notable water abstraction points or users in the immediate downstream of the proposed weirs. There is one small village named Jalodiya located at about 2 km. River is not perennial, and flows for about 6 to 7 months a year, and the remaining 5 to 6 months it goes completely dry. With the construction of proposed weir with a small storage capacity with a fraction of total water availability in the river as stated above, there will be any notable changes in the flow regime is not going to change this flow regime post construction. Table 13: Catchment Area – Rainfall based Water Yield Estimate in Gambir River at Proposed Betma Weir Site S. No Parameters Vaue Units 1 Catchment area (A) = 189 Sq Km 2 Average rain fall (Maximum) (I) = 750 Mm 3 Average rain fall (Minimum)(I) = 450 Mm 4 Run off coefficient = 0.61

66 Initial Environmental Examination- Package 2A

Assuming 50% covered and 50% uncovered = 5 Formula = AIR i Maximum rainfall = (189X1000X1000X0.75X0.61) cum = 86467500 cum = 86.4675 MCM Minimum rainfall = 51880500 cum Total Available water = 51.8805 MCM

61. Ecological impacts. Gambir River is not a perennial river, and runs completely dry for 6-7 months in year. There are no notable sensitive environmental features in the river. There is no notable, protected or unique aquatic life in the river, and the fish is limited to local common species. There is no commercial fishing taking place. As there are unlikely to be any notable changes in the river flow regime, no impacts envisaged on downstream users or river ecosystem. The proposed impoundment, in fact, is likely to benefit the environment through groundwater recharge and propagating aquatic life. Also, there are already existing dams/weirs, on the upstream and downstream course of the river, therefore no further impacts envisaged due to proposed weir. It is proposed that weir will be constructed as a vented structure, with open rectangular vents and gates; sill level of weir will be just above the river bed. On the sill there will be vertical slots to insert removable gates; gates will be closed prior to end of monsoon flows and opened prior to onset of heavy monsoon flows; this arrangement avoids silt accumulation and also prevents obstruction of heavy monsoon flows. Typical cross section of proposed weir is given below. As the package is implemented under DBO mode, the detailed design of weir will be conducted by the contractor after award of the contract.

62. Weir storage /submergence area: The following Figure shows the weir storage / submergence area of proposed Betma weir. The height of weir is less than the height of the river banks, and therefore the water storage is confined to river course / flood plain, and there is no submergence of lands outside the river. Total water storage / submergence area at weir height is calculated as 13.1 ha, which is fully in the river. No negative impacts or acquisition of government of private or government lands anticipated.

63. Source water quality & pollution sources. Current water quality is suitable for drinking water after conventional treatment and disinfection, and as there are no notable pollution sources in the upstream near the intake, there is no likely risk of source contamination. However, there is a need to check on future development to avoid contamination of source.

64. Water Quality of Source: The catchment areas of all the three towns are mostly characterized by agricultural and barren lands. There are no polluting sources like industries or mining in the catchment areas. Habitations are limited to small villages, there is no major town located in the catchment. All the parameters of water quality in comparison with drinking water standards are well within the limits, hence Convention water treatment and disinfection, which is proposed in the project, is adequate to make the water usable for drinking purposes.

65. Use of Chlorine as disinfectant. Treatment of water is one of the important functions executed in all water works. In this different operations are carried out for making the raw water obtained from various sources fit for uses to which it is to be put up i.e. domestic, industrial or for fire fighting. The actual operation to be carried out, their sequence and the results to be accomplished depend upon the quality of raw water to be treated and the standards of purification to be obtained. Analysis of raw water of river Chambal and Gambhir river reveals that no special treatment is required except nominal flocculation and filtration followed by chlorination. This is to be constructed for the requirement of intermediate stage. According to the anticipated population in the year 2033, the capacity of water treatment plant required is given above. Hydraulic design, line diagram and layout plan is attached. The sludge created in washing of different

69 Initial Environmental Examination- Package 2A

components of the treatment plant units will be treated in the campus by constructing a small aeration tank. The cost of this unit is included in the estimate.

66. Sensitive project locations. None of the subprojects are surrounded by forest areas, which are of open mixed or dense mixed type jungles that are under reserved, protected or unclassified categories. None of the subproject components are located in the forest areas, nor is any pipeline aligned through the forests. This will be further verified and ensured during the detailed design phase.

67. Similarly proposed works in the river bed (for dam and intake) may damage the river bed, lead to degradation of water quality due to increase in turbidity and contamination from fuels and lubricant used in construction work. Increase in silt content and water turbidity, chemical quality can affect the aquatic life. Measures are included in the EMP to avoid, minimize these impacts.

68. Removal of trees and vegetation will be minimize by best alignment and layout planning of facilities, however, this cannot be avoided fully. Appropriate measures in terms of compensatory tree plantation is included in the EMP.

69. Utilities. Telephone lines, electric poles and wires, water lines within the proposed project locations may require to be shifted in few cases. To mitigate the adverse impacts due to relocation of the utilities, the contractor, in collaboration with ULB will be required to implement appropriate measures. These are given in the EMP.

70. Site selection of construction work camps, stockpile areas, storage areas, and disposal areas. Priority is to locate these near the project location. However, if it is deemed necessary to locate elsewhere, sites to be considered will not promote instability and result in destruction of property, vegetation, irrigation, and drinking water supply systems. Residential areas will not be considered for setting up construction camps to protect the human environment (i.e., to curb accident risks, health risks due to air and water pollution and dust, and noise, and to prevent social conflicts, shortages of amenities, and crime). Extreme care will be taken to avoid disposals near forest areas, water bodies, or in areas which will

71. Site selection of sources of materials. Significant quantities of coarse aggregate and fine aggregate will be required for construction works. Requirement of gravel is limited. Contractor should procure these materials only from the quarries permitted/licensed by Mines and Geology Department. Contractor should, to the maximum extent possible, procure material from existing quarries, and creation of new quarry areas should be avoid as far as possible. It will be the construction contractor’s responsibility to verify the suitability of all material sources and to obtain the approval of Department of Mines & Geology and local revenue administration.

B. Construction Impacts 72. Construction works. Civil works in the project include linear excavation for laying pipes along the roads, placing pipes in the trench and refilling with the excavated soil. The trenches will be of 0.4 m – 0.7 m wide and 0.8 to 1 m depth. Subsequent to completion of works, road reinstatement will be undertaken by the contractor as part of the civil works. The roads in the core city area of all the towns are very narrow and congested with pedestrians and vehicles (mainly 2-wheelers), while the roads in outer areas are wide.

73. Earth work excavation will be undertaken by machine (backhoe excavator) or manually and include danger lighting and using barricades at every 100 m.. Sufficient care will be taken while laying so that existing utilities and cables are not damaged and pipes are not thrown into the trenches or dragged, but carefully laid in the trenches. As trenches are a maximum of 1.2 m, there is no risk of collapse of trenches or risk to surrounding buildings. Once they are laid, pipes will be joined as per specification and then tested for any cracks of leakages. The

70 Initial Environmental Examination- Package 2A

minimum working hours will be 8 hours daily, the total duration of each stage depends on the soil condition and other local features. About 95% of the excavated soil will be used for refilling the refilling the trench after placing the pipe and therefore residual soil after pipe laying and refilling is not significant. This excel soil shall be used for construction.

74. Other civil works in the subprojects include construction of Weir across river Chambal in Depalpur and Gautampura and Gambhir in Betma, intake cum pump house on the river bank, raw water pumping station including laying of water intake pipe, water treatment plants, overhead tanks identified sites. These works will be confined to sites, and construction will include general activities like excavation for foundation, construction of foundations, columns, walls and roof in cement concrete and masonry, and fixing of mechanical and electrical fixtures, etc.

75. Although construction of these project components involves quite simple techniques of civil work, the invasive nature of excavation and the project locations in the built-up areas of the town where there are a variety of human activities, will result in impacts to the environment and sensitive receptors such as residents, businesses, and the community in general. The following are anticipated impacts, which are temporary and for short duration:

(i) Dust and air emissions from construction activities and equipment / vehicles affecting the ambient air quality (ii) Impacts on natural drainage, surface water bodies due to disposal of construction waste and silt / chemical laden run off from work areas (iii) Impacts on river eco-system due to river bed construction (iv) Impacts due to disposal of surplus soil, construction waste, debris etc., (v) Impacts due to noise and vibration from consultation activities (vi) Impacts due to collection of groundwater in trenches & disposal of the same (vii) Impact/public inconvenience/ accessibility issues due to excavation on public roads (narrow old town roads), movement of trucks carrying construction material (viii) Impacts on business, activities, people due to loss/restricted access to public/private/business/sensitive areas (schools, hospitals), etc., (ix) Occupation health and safety impacts on workers (x) Health Impacts due to removal of existing AC (asbestos cement) pipes (xi) Community health and safety impacts due to construction in an urban area (xii) Impacts due to establishment/operation of temporary construction camps

76. The above impacts are typical for construction in urban areas, and therefore are common to all the three subproject towns. These are negative but short-term and reversible by mitigation measures. There are well-developed and proven measures and construction practices to avoid, mitigate and/or minimize these impacts to acceptable levels. These measures are given in the construction phase EMP applicable to all three towns.

D. Operation and Maintenance Impacts

77. Operation and Maintenance of the water supply system will be carried out by the DBO Contractor for 10 years, and after which the respective municipalities will operate and maintain the infrastructure. During the system design life (15/30 years for mechanical/civil components),it shall not require major repairs or refurbishments and should operate with little maintenance beyond routine actions required to keep the equipment in working order. The stability and integrity of the system will be monitored periodically to detect any problems and allow remedial action if required. Any repairs will be small-scale involving manual, temporary, and short-term works involving regular checking and recording of performance for signs of deterioration, servicing and replacement of parts.

71 Initial Environmental Examination- Package 2A

78. Recurrence of pipe bursting and leakage problems can be managed by the leak detection and water auditing surveys. The ULBs will be required to ensure that the leak detection and rectification time is minimized.

79. Provision for recirculation system for filter backwash – backwash water from filter beds will be sent to a storage tank, and after allowing adequate time for settlement of solids, clarified water will be pumped to WTP inlet. This arrangement will avoid pollution and also minimize wastage of water. Water treatment process will generate sludge from sedimentation of particulate matter in raw water, flocculated and precipitated material resulting from chemical coagulation, residuals of excess chemical dosage, plankton etc; and waste from rinsing and back washing of filter media containing debris, chemical precipitates, straining of organic debris and plankton. Accumulated sludge from Tube Settler, filter backwash etc., will be disposed-off at sludge drying beds for natural drying. Dried sludge will be disposed off in a land fill or used as soil conditioner if it is suitable

E. Project benefits

80. During the construction phase, there are likely to be positive impacts through employment generation, increase in local revenue from the project activities. During the operation phase also, there is potential for employment generation, though limited, as the improved and expanded water infrastructure requires additional workforce.

81. The citizens of Betma, Depalpur and Gautampura will be the major beneficiaries of the improved water supply system, as they will be provided with a constant supply of better quality water, piped into their homes at an appropriate pressure. The project will improve the over-all health condition of the towns as water borne diseases will be reduced, so people should spend less on healthcare and lose fewer working days due to illness, so their economic status should also improve, as well as their overall health. This should also improve the environment of these areas, should deliver major improvements in individual and community health and well-being.

VII. PUBLIC CONSULTATION AND INFORMATION DISCLOSURE

A. Overview

82. The active participation of stakeholders including local community, NGOs/CBOs, and the media in all stages of project preparation and implementation is essential for successful implementation of the project. It will ensure that the subprojects are designed, constructed, and operated with utmost consideration to local needs, ensures community acceptance, and will bring maximum benefits to the people. Public consultation and information disclosure is a must as per the ADB policy.

83. Most of the main stakeholders have already been identified and consulted during preparation of this IEE, and any others that are identified during project implementation will be brought into the process in the future. Primary stakeholders of the subproject are: residents, shopkeepers and businesspeople who live and work alongside the roads in which network improvements will be provided and near sites where facilities will be built (WTP and water tanks), and government and utility agencies responsible for provision of services in all the three towns, and Madhya Pradesh Pollution Control Board. Secondary stakeholder are: NGOs and CBOs working in the area, community representatives, beneficiary community in general, government agencies, the executing and implementing agencies (MPUDC, PMU and PIUs), Government of India and the ADB.

B. Public Consultation

84. The public consultation and disclosure program is a continuous process throughout the project implementation, including project planning, design and construction.

1. Consultation during Project Preparation

85. Institutional consultations were conducted with the Governmental Departments such as PMU, Pollution Control Board, Public Health Engineering Department, Water Resourced Department, ASI and Forest Department etc. The subproject proposal is formulated in consultation with all the three Nagar Parishads and suit the requirements of the ULBs.

86. Focus-group discussions with affected persons and other stakeholders were conducted to learn their views and concerns. A socio economic household survey has been conducted in the town, covering sample households, to understand the household characteristics, health status, and the infrastructure service levels, and also the demand for infrastructure services. General public and the people residing along the project activity areas were also consulted during visits to the project sites. A consultation meeting was conducted in December 2015 with NGOs actively working in Indore district. Details of the public consultations are provided in following Tables and Appendix 7.

87. It was observed that people are willing to extend their cooperation as the proposed activities are proposed to enhance the infrastructure service levels and the living standard of the public. The public expressed their concern regarding the nuisance and disturbance (dust, road closure and traffic management activities), which may affect the health and their livelihood.

Prior to start of construction, ULB and PIU with the assistance of PMC will conduct information dissemination sessions at various places and solicit the help of the local community, leaders/prominent for the project work. At each ward/neighborhood level, focus group meetings will be conducted to discuss and plan construction work with local communities to reduce disturbance and other impacts.

89. A constant communication will be established with the affected communities to redress the environmental issues likely to surface during construction phases and also regarding the grievance redress mechanism. ULB/PIU and PMC will organize public meetings and will appraise the communities about the progress on the implementation of EMP. Meeting will also be organized at the potential hotspots/sensitive locations before and during the construction.

C. Information Disclosure

90. Executive summary of the IEE will be translated in Hindi and made available at the offices of PMU, PIU, Nagar Parishad offices, and also displayed on their notice boards. Hard copies of the IEE will be accessible to citizens as a means to disclose the document and at the same time creating wider public awareness. Electronic version of the IEE in English and Executive Summary in Hindi will be placed in the official website of the MPUDC, PMU after approval of the IEE by Government and ADB. Stakeholders will also be made aware of grievance register and redress mechanism.

91. Public information campaigns to explain the project details to a wider population will be conducted. Public disclosure meetings will be conducted at key project stages to inform the public of progress and future plans. Prior to start of construction, the PMU/PIU will issue Notification on the start date of implementation in local newspapers A board showing the details of the project will be displayed at the construction site for the information of general public.

92. Local communities will be continuously consulted regarding location of construction camps, access and hauling routes and other likely disturbances during construction. The road closure together with the proposed detours will be communicated via advertising, pamphlets, radio broadcasts, road signage, etc.

VIII. GRIEVANCE REDRESS MECHANISM

A. Project Specific Grievance Redress Mechanism

93. A program-specific grievance redress mechanism (GRM) shall be established to receive, evaluate, and facilitate the resolution of AP’s concerns, complaints, and grievances about the social and environmental performance at the level of the project. The following GRM provides a time-bound and transparent mechanism to voice and resolve social and environmental concerns linked to the project.

94. A common GRM will be in place for social, environmental, or any other grievances related to the project. The GRM will provide an accessible and trusted platform for receiving and facilitating resolution of affected persons’ grievances related to the program. The multi-tier GRM for the project is outlined below, each tier having time-bound schedules and with responsible persons identified to address grievances and seek appropriate persons’ advice at each stage, as required. ULB-wide public awareness campaigns will ensure that awareness on grievance redress procedures is generated through the campaign.

95. Who can complain: A complaint may be brought by persons who are, or could be, “directly, indirectly, materially, and adversely” affected by the project. A complaint can be submitted on behalf of the affected person/people by a representative, provided that he or she identifies the affected person/people and includes evidence of the authority to act on their behalf.

96. What the Grievance/Complain should contain: Any concerns pertaining to safeguard compliance - environment, involuntary resettlement, indigenous people, design related issues, compensation, service delivery or any other issues or concerns related to the project. The complaint must contain name, date, address/contact details of the complainant, location of the problem area, along with the problem. In addition, online filing using the state’s existing grievance redress mechanism or telephone helpline will also be open to use by affected persons3.

97. Where to file a Complaint: Complainants will have the flexibility of conveying grievances/suggestions by dropping or reporting grievance redress/suggestion forms in complaints/suggestion boxes to be installed by project at all the three Nagar Parishad offices, PIU offices, CM (Chief Minister) Helpline or by e-mail or by writing in a complaints register in the PIU offices or at construction site offices.

98. How to file a Complaint: The application should be precise and specific. The application can be sent either by post or through electronic means or deliver personally. A sample grievance form is at Appendix 10.

(i) Offline System - The application can be made on the application form available at all accessible places (NPs/ Office of PIUs/ construction site offices). The application should have the name and complete postal address of the applicant. (ii) Online System - Grievances pertaining to the implementation of the project can also be filed online at the website of MPUDC/PMU or by e-mails.

99. Documentation: Documentation of the complaints is important and must contain

3 Government of Madhya Pradesh has a special program called Chief Minister’s Monitoring Programme, which monitors development programs in the state and provides for online registration of complaints. The Public Grievance Redressal Department of GoMP clearly displays the Chief Minister’s Helpline Number, through which persons may lodge complaints directly to the highest authority in the state. The website of the Public Grievance Redressal Department also provides a kiosk locator for district level grievance redress kiosks. http://www.mp.gov.in/web/guest/home.

85 Initial Environmental Examination- Package 2A

name of the complainant, date of receipt of the complaint, address/contact details of the person, location of the problem area, and how the problem was resolved. PMU with the support of PIU will have the overall responsibility for timely grievance redress, and for registration of grievances, related disclosure, and communication with the aggrieved party. All the documents made available to the public at the community level (at ward offices) and will include information on the contact number, address and contact person for registering grievances, and will be disseminated throughout the project area by the PIU.

100. Grievance/Problem Redress through Participatory Process: Efforts must be made by the PIU with the support of safeguard consultants to resolve problems amicably, conflicts through participatory process with the community and the Nagar Parishads. In case of grievances that are immediate and urgent in the perception of the complainant, the Contractor, and supervision personnel from the PIU will provide the most easily accessible or first level of contact for the quick resolution of grievances. Contact phone numbers and names of the concerned staff and contractors, will be posted at all construction sites at visible locations.

101. Following process will be followed:

(i) 1st level grievance. In case of grievances that are immediate and urgent in the perception of the complainant, PMC supervising staff will direct the contractor to and ensures that it is resolved. If the grievance is not under the contractor scope, but under the program, PMC (field office) will resolve this issue. All the grievances should be resolved within 3 days of receipt of a complaint/grievance. The complaints/grievances received in the CM helpline that are related to MPUSIP will be referred to project GRM at this first level. CM helpline staff will be included in the GRM training so that they can identify the related grievances and forward to this project GRM.

(ii) 2nd level grievance. All grievances that cannot be redressed at first level within 3 days will be brought to the notice of PIU and PMC Assistant Environmental Specialist. PIU will review the grievance and act appropriately to resolve it within 10 days of receipt.

(iii) 3rd level grievance. All the grievances that are not addressed at 2nd level by PIU within in 10 days of receipt will be brought to the notice of notice of the Grievance Redressal Committee (GRC)4. GRC will meet twice a month and determine the merit of each grievance brought to the committee. The GRC will resolve the grievance within 1 month of receiving the complaint. All decisions taken by the GRC will be communicated to complainant by the Nodal Officer.

102. In case of any inter-departmental or inter-jurisdictional coordination required for resolution of specific grievances, the PIU will refer the matter directly to the PMU for state- level or inter-departmental coordination and resolution, instead of the town-level GRC. The project GRM notwithstanding, an aggrieved person shall have access to the country's legal system at any stage, and accessing the country's legal system can run parallel to accessing the GRM and is not dependent on the negative outcome of the GRM. Alternatively, if the grievance is related to land acquisition, resettlement & rehabilitation5, the APs can approach the Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Authority (LARRA) of Madhya Pradesh, established under the Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation, and Resettlement Act, 2013.

4 Grievance redress committee (GRC) will be formed at town-level with members composed of: ULB Chairperson, ULB CMO, Environmental Specialist of PMC, PIU Dy.PM and PIU Community Development Officer. In case of any complaints by IP or members of scheduled tribes, the PIU will include as special member, a representative of an independent local NGO involved in tribal welfare. Special invitees to hearing of IP complaints will include two representatives from affected IP community and the project IP NGO, if appointed for IPP implementation. 5 the Authority admits grievance only with reference to the LA and R&R issues under the new Act

86 Initial Environmental Examination- Package 2A

103. Record-keeping. PIU will keep records of grievances received, corrective actions taken and the final outcome. The number of grievances recorded and resolved and the outcomes will be displayed/disclosed in the PIU office, ULB offices, and on the web.

IX. ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN

A. Implementation Arrangements

104. Urban Development and Housing Department (UDHD) of Government of Madhya Pradesh will be the Executing Agency for the Program, responsible for management, coordination and execution of all activities funded under the loan. Implementing Agency will be the recently established Madhya Pradesh Urban Development Company (MPUDC), a wholly owned subsidiary of GoMP. A central Project Management Unit (PMU) attached to MPUDC will be responsible for implementing the MPUSIP. The PMU will be supported by Program Implementation Units (PIUs) with flexibility to redeployment depending upon the implementation requirements.

105. The PMU and PIUs will be supported by several teams of Design Consultants in preparation of preliminary engineering designs.

106. Water Resource Review Committee (WRRC) is constituted to undertake a thorough review of the source when recommended by the Design Consultant in regard to techno- economic feasibility and sustainability especially ensuring climate change resilience, and Technical Review Committee (TRC) to review and approve the preliminary designs developed by the Design Consultants.

107. Program Management Consultant (PMC) centrally located in PMU and with field teams located in PIUs shall be responsible for implementation of the Program. All infrastructure contracts will be procured through performance-based contracts (PBCs) and include build- operate (BO) framework. Based on the preliminary designs prepared by Design Consultants, the DBO (design-build-operate) Contractor will design, construct, commission and operate for 10 years, after which it will be transferred to the respective ULB.

108. Two Committees - an Empowered Committee cum Executive Committee and a Technical Clearance and Tender Committee have been constituted by the Government to be responsible for effective and timely implementation of the Program.

109. Safeguards. At PMU, there will be two safeguard specialists: (i) Project Officer (Environment) and (ii) Social & Gender Offer, who will responsible for compliance with the environmental and social safeguards in program implementation. PO (Environment) will have overall responsibility in implementation of the investment program as per the Environmental Assessment & Review Framework (EARF) agreed between ADB and the government. At individual subproject level, PO will ensure that environmental assessment is conducted, and a project-specific is prepared and implemented, and the compliance, and corrective actions, if any are reported as required.

B. Environmental Management Plan

110. An environmental management plan (EMP) has been developed to provide mitigation measures to reduce all negative impacts to acceptable levels.

111. The EMP will guide the environmentally-sound construction of the subproject and ensure efficient lines of communication between MPUDC, project management unit (PMU), project implementing unit (PIU), consultants and contractors. The EMP will (i) ensure that the activities are undertaken in a responsible non-detrimental manner; (i) provide a pro-active, feasible and practical working tool to enable the measurement and monitoring of environmental performance on site; (ii) guide and control the implementation of findings and recommendations of the environmental assessment conducted for the subproject; (iii) detail specific actions deemed necessary to assist in mitigating the environmental impact of the subproject; and (iv) ensure that safety recommendations are complied with. The EMP includes

88 Initial Environmental Examination- Package 2A

a monitoring program to measure the environmental condition and effectiveness of implementation of the mitigation measures. It will include observations on- and off-site, document checks, and interviews with workers and beneficiaries.

112. The contractor will be required to submit to PIU, for review and approval, a site environmental plan (SEP) including (i) proposed sites/locations for construction work camps, storage areas, hauling roads, lay down areas, disposal areas for solid and hazardous wastes; (ii) specific mitigation measures following the approved EMP; (iii) monitoring program as per SEP; and (iv) budget for SEP implementation. No works are allowed to commence prior to approval of SEP.

113. A copy of the EMP/approved SEP will be kept on site during the construction period at all times. The EMP included in the bid and contract documents. Non-compliance with, or any deviation from, the conditions set out in this document constitutes a failure in compliance.

114. For civil works, the contractor will be required to (i) carry out all of the mitigation and monitoring measures set forth in the approved SEP; and (ii) implement any corrective or preventative actions set out in safeguards monitoring reports that the employer will prepare from time to time to monitor implementation of this IEE and SEP. The contractor shall allocate budget for compliance with these SEP measures, requirements and actions.

115. The following tables show the potential environmental impacts, proposed mitigation measures and responsible agencies for implementation and monitoring.

F. Monitoring and Reporting

120. During the detailed design stage, DBO Contractor should confirm PMU the mobilization of Environmental Expert for IEE update and integrating design stage EMP into designs.

121. Prior to commencement of the works, the contractor will submit a compliance report to PIU that all identified pre-construction mitigation measures as detailed in the EMP are undertaken. Contractor should confirm EHS supervisor is mobilized and EHS coordinators are designated for each town for effective implementation of the EMU. PMU with the assistance of the PMC will review the report and permit commencement of works.

122. During construction, results from internal monitoring by the contractor will be reflected in their monthly EMP implementation reports to the PIU. PMU will review and advise contractors

110

for corrective actions if necessary. Quarterly report summarizing compliance and corrective measures taken will be prepared by PMC field team at PIU and submitted to PMU (Appendix 15). During operation, the contractor will conduct management and monitoring actions as per the operation stage EMP, and submit to PMU and ULB a quarterly report on EMP implementation and compliance.

123. Based on monthly & quarterly reports and measurements, PMU will submit to ADB, semi-annual (6-monthly) Environmental Monitoring Reports (EMR).Once concurrence from the ADB is received the report will be disclosed on the MPUDC and PMU websites.

124. ADB will review project performance against the MPUSIP commitments as agreed in the legal documents. The extent of ADB’s monitoring and supervision activities will be commensurate with the project’s risks and impacts. Monitoring and supervising of social and environmental safeguards will be integrated into the project performance management system

G. EMP Implementation Cost

125. Most of the mitigation measures require the contractors to adopt good site practice, which should be part of their normal procedures already, so there are unlikely to be major costs associated with compliance. The costs which are specific to EMP implementation and are not covered elsewhere in the projects are given below. The total costs are estimated at INR 2.43 million, which are to be covered by contractor costs.

X. CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS

126. The process described in this document has assessed the environmental impacts of all elements of the Betma, Depalpur and Gautampura water supply improvement subproject. All potential impacts were identified in relation to pre-construction, construction, and operation phases. Planning principles and design considerations have been reviewed and incorporated into the site planning and design process wherever possible; thus, environmental impacts as being due to the project design or location were not significant.

127. No flow data available for these rivers as they are not gauged by WRD. Considering the low water requirement of towns (2.16 MLD for Betma, 2.40 MLD for Depalpur and 2.10 MLD for Gautampura), and very high flows during monsoon, (as gathered from local information), it is assessed to be unlikely to have any issue of source sustainability. To cater to the no-flow period (5-6 months), weirs are proposed. These are small weirs, with a height of 4-6 m above the river bed level (same as depth of river banks), thus confining the submergence to river course itself. Both the rivers – Chambal (source for Depalpur and Gautampura) and Gambir (source for Betma) are not perennial. Chambal flows for about 6-7 months while Gambir flows for about 5-6 months a year, mostly during monsoon and post monsoon. Chambal is a large (988 km length) and interstate river and although it is perennial in the mid and lower courses, in the upper reaches, in which both the weirs are proposed for project towns, river is not perennial. There are existing weirs / dams on both the river upstream and downstream of proposed weir locations, and considering this there are no notable changes envisaged in the flow regime. Overall water abstraction against the water availability is between 0.5 to 1.4 %, which is negligible and unlikely to have any impacts.

128. Given intermittent nature of rivers, there are no notable sensitive environmental features. There is no notable, protected or unique aquatic life in the river, and the fish is limited to local common species. National Chambal Gharial Sanctuary, established in River Chambal in its mid and lower reaches, is far away (about 300 km downstream) from proposed weir locations, and this distance is intercepted further by four major dams. Therefore the proposed weirs have no relevance to the sanctuary area. It is also proposed that weirs will be constructed as a vented structure, with open rectangular vents and gates; sill level of weir will be just above the river bed. On the sill there will be vertical slots to insert removable gates; gates will be closed prior to end of monsoon flows and opened prior to onset of heavy monsoon flows; this arrangement avoids silt accumulation and also prevents obstruction of heavy monsoon flows. As the package is implemented under DBO mode, the detailed design of weir will be conducted by the contractor after award of the contract.

The water impoundment / submergence due to proposed weirs is confined to river courses as the proposed height of the weirs is less than the height of river banks at respective weir locations. Therefore there is no submergence of government or private lands or forest areas. The proposed impoundment in fact is likely to benefit the environment through groundwater recharge and propagation of aquatic life. Water quality is suitable for drinking water after conventional treatment and disinfection, and there are no notable pollution sources. No negative

impacts thus envisaged.

129. During the construction phase, impacts mainly arise from the construction dust and noise, the need to dispose of large quantities of waste soil and import of construction material, and from the disturbance of residents, businesses, traffic and important buildings by the construction work. The social impacts (access disruptions) due to construction activities are unavoidable, as the residential and commercial establishments exist along the roads where pipes will be laid. As some of the works are conducted in rive, there is a risk of water contamination, river bed damage, etc. Appropriate measures are suggested.

130. Anticipated impacts of water supply during operation and maintenance will be related to detection and repair of leaks, pipe bursts. These are, however, likely to be minimal, as proper design and selection of good quality pipe material shall mean that leaks are minimal. Leak repair work will be similar to the pipe-laying work. Appropriate measures to deal with backwash water and sludge from WTP is included in the project design. Application and handling of chlorine gas will involve certain risks, and appropriate measures are suggested for safe application. The DBO Contractor will implement the operation stage EMP during contract period.

131. The public participation processes undertaken during project design ensured stakeholders are engaged during the preparation of the IEE. The planned information disclosure measures and process for carrying out consultation with affected people will facilitate their participation during project implementation.

132. The project’s grievance redress mechanism will provide the citizens with a platform to redress of their grievances, and describes the informal and formal channels, time frame, and mechanisms for resolving complaints about environmental performance.

133. The EMP will assist the PMU, PIU, PMC and DBO contractor in mitigating the environmental impacts, and guide them in the environmentally sound execution of the proposed project.

134. A copy of the EMP/approved SEP shall be kept on-site during the construction period at all times. The EMP shall be made binding on all contractors operating on the site, and will be included in the contractual clauses. Non-compliance with, or any deviation from, the conditions set out in this document shall constitute a failure in compliance.

135. The project will benefit the general public by contributing to the long-term improvement of water supply systems and community livability in Betma and Gautampura.

136. Therefore, as per ADB SPS, the project is classified as environmental category B and does not require further environmental impact assessment. However, to conform to government guidelines, the project requires (i) permission of WRD, GoMP for water abstraction from Chambal and Gambhir River River, and for construction of Weir and intakes on it and (ii) Consent for Establishment (CFE) and Consent for Operation (CFO) for WTPs from MPPCB. These permissions/approvals shall be obtained.

114

137. This IEE shall be updated during the detailed design stage by the DBO contractor to reflect any changes, amendments and will be reviewed and approved by PMU.

Appendix 19: Sample Outline Traffic Management Plan

A. Principles for TMP around the Water Pipes Construction Sites

1. One of the prime objectives of this TMP is to ensure the safety of all the road users along the work zone, and to address the following issues: (i) the safety of pedestrians, bicyclists, and motorists travelling through the construction zone; (ii) protection of work crews from hazards associated with moving traffic; (iii) mitigation of the adverse impact on road capacity and delays to the road users; (iv) maintenance of access to adjoining properties; and (v) addressing issues that may delay the project.

B. Operating Policies for TMP

2. The following principles will help promote safe and efficient movement for all road users (motorists, bicyclists, and pedestrians, including persons with disabilities) through and around work zones while reasonably protecting workers and equipment. (i) Make traffic safety and temporary traffic control an integral and high-priority element of project from planning through design, construction, and maintenance. (ii) Inhibit traffic movement as little as possible. (iii) Provide clear and positive guidance to drivers, bicyclists, and pedestrians as they approach and travel through the temporary traffic control zone. (iv) Inspect traffic control elements routinely, both day and night, and make modifications when necessary. (v) Pay increased attention to roadside safety in the vicinity of temporary traffic control zones. (vi) Train all persons that select, place, and maintain temporary traffic control devices. (vii) Keep the public well informed. (viii) Make appropriate accommodation for abutting property owners, residents, businesses, emergency services, railroads, commercial vehicles, and transit operations.

3. Figure A2 to Figure A12illustrates the operating policy for TMP for the construction of water pipes and the sewers along various types of roads.

C. Analyze the impact due to street closure

4. Apart from the capacity analysis, a final decision to close a particular street and divert the traffic should involve the following steps:

(i) approval from the ULB/Public Works Department (PWD) to use the local streets as detours; (ii) consultation with businesses, community members, traffic police, PWD, etc, regarding the mitigation measures necessary at the detours where the road is diverted during the construction; (iii) determining of the maximum number of days allowed for road closure, and incorporation of such provisions into the contract documents;

(iv) determining if additional traffic control or temporary improvements are needed along the detour route; (v) considering how access will be provided to the worksite; (vi) contacting emergency service, school officials, and transit authorities to determine if there are impacts to their operations; and (vii) developing a notification program to the public so that the closure is not a surprise. As part of this program, the public should be advised of alternate routes that commuters can take or will have to take as result of the traffic diversion.

5. If full road-closure of certain streets within the area is not feasible due to inadequate capacity of the detour street or public opposition, the full closure can be restricted to weekends with the construction commencing on Saturday night and ending on Monday morning prior to the morning peak period.

Figure A1: Policy Steps for the TMP

• Review construction schedule and methods Review

Traffic Re- • Identify initial traffic recirculation and control policy Circulation

• Identify routes for traffic diversions Traffic • Analyse adverse impact & mitigation at the detours Diversions

• Begin community consultation for consensus Full Road • Finalise or determine alternate detours Colsures

• Identify temporary parking (on and off -street ) Temporary • Discuss with CMC, owner, community for use parking

• Coordinate with theTraffic Police to enforce traffic and diversions Police Coordination

• Install traffic control devices (traffic cones, sgns, lightings, etc) Install control devices

• Conduct campaigns, publicity, and notify public about street closure Awareness

Develop a mechanism to address public grievances regarding disruptons (traffic, utilities, and diversions) Public • Redress

D. Public awareness and notifications

6. As per discussions in the previous sections, there will be travel delays during the constructions, as is the case with most construction projects, albeit on a reduced scale if utilities and traffic management are properly coordinated. There are additional grounds for travel delays in the area, as most of the streets lack sufficient capacity to accommodate additional traffic from diverted traffic as a result of street closures to accommodate the works.

201

6. The awareness campaign and the prior notification for the public will be a continuous activity which the project will carry out to compensate for the above delays and minimize public claims as result of these problems. These activities will take place sufficiently in advance of the time when the roadblocks or traffic diversions take place at the particular streets. The reason for this is to allow sufficient time for the public and residents to understand the changes to their travel plans. The project will notify the public about the roadblocks and traffic diversion through public notices, ward level meetings and city level meeting with the elected representatives.

7. The PIU will also conduct an awareness campaign to educate the public about the following issues:

(i) traffic control devices in place at the work zones (signs, traffic cones, barriers, etc.); (ii) defensive driving behaviour along the work zones; and (iii) reduced speeds enforced at the work zones and traffic diversions.

8. It may be necessary to conduct the awareness programs/campaigns on road safety during construction.

9. The campaign will cater to all types of target groups i.e. children, adults, and drivers. Therefore, these campaigns will be conducted in schools and community centres. In addition, the project will publish a brochure for public information. These brochures will be widely circulated around the area and will also be available at the PIU, and the contractor's site office. The text of the brochure should be concise to be effective, with a lot of graphics. It will serve the following purpose:

(i) explain why the brochure was prepared, along with a brief description of the project; (ii) advise the public to expect the unexpected; (iii) educate the public about the various traffic control devices and safety measures adopted at the work zones; (iv) educate the public about the safe road user behaviour to emulate at the work zones; (v) tell the public how to stay informed or where to inquire about road safety issues at the work zones (name, telephone, mobile number of the contact person; and (vi) indicate the office hours of relevant offices.

E. Install traffic control devices at the work zones and traffic diversion routes

10. The purpose of installing traffic control devices at the work zones is to delineate these areas to warn, inform, and direct the road users about a hazard ahead, and to protect them as well as the workers. As proper delineation is a key to achieve the above objective, it is important to install good traffic signs at the work zones. The following traffic control devices are used in work zones:

• Signs • Pavement Markings • Channelizing Devices • Arrow Panels • Warning Lights

202

11. Procedures for installing traffic control devices at any work zone vary, depending on road configuration, location of the work, construction activity, duration, traffic speed and volume, and pedestrian traffic. Work will take place along major roads, and the minor internal roads. As such, the traffic volume and road geometry vary. The main roads carry considerable traffic; internal roads in the new city areas are wide but in old city roads very narrow and carry considerable traffic. However, regardless of where the construction takes place, all the work zones should be cordoned off, and traffic shifted away at least with traffic cones, barricades, and temporary signs (temporary “STOP” and “GO”).

12. Figure A2 to Figure A6 illustrates a typical set-up for installing traffic control devices at the work zone of the area, depending on the location of work on the road way, and road geometrics: • Work on shoulder or parking lane • Shoulder or parking lane closed on divided road • Work in Travel lane • Lane closure on road with low volume • Street closure with detour

13. The work zone should take into consideration the space required for a buffer zone between the workers and the traffic (lateral and longitudinal) and the transition space required for delineation, as applicable. For the works, a 30 cm clearance between the traffic and the temporary STOP and GO signs should be provided. In addition, at least 60 cm is necessary to install the temporary traffic signs and cones.

14. Traffic police should regulate traffic away from the work zone and enforce the traffic diversion result from full street closure in certain areas during construction. Flagggers/ personnel should be equipped with reflective jackets at all times and have traffic control batons (preferably the LED type) for regulating the traffic during night time.

16. In addition to the delineation devices, all the construction workers should wear fluorescent safety vests and helmets in order to be visible to the motorists at all times. There should be provision for lighting beacons and illumination for night constructions.
