ESMP Summary ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL MANAGEMENT PLAN SUMMARY Project Title: Science and Technology Development Project Project Code: P-AO-IA0-006 Country: ANGOLA Department: OSHD Division: OSHD.2 a) Brief description of the project and key environmental and social components The government of Angola is putting in place a Scientific and Technological Development Project with the AfDB support. This project is part of the implementation of the National Policy for Science, Technology and Innovation – NPSTI, in order to foster the contribution of STI to industrialization, economic diversification and development in the country and also is aligned with the National Development Plan. To ensure that science and technology provide the answers that society and economic development need, it is necessary to encourage R&D, to promote interaction between universities, research institutions, companies and civil society organizations, to foster innovation and to disseminate knowledge. Policies for Science, Technology and Innovation (STI) seek to create conditions so that those developments become a reality. The STDP is integrated on the AfDB strategie 2013 – 2022 related to human capital and gender. The objective of the STDP is to contribute to the diversification of the economy through scientific and technological innovation. One of the components of this project is the Technological Park of Dande, which will be located in the city of Mabubas, northern Bengo province, belonging to the Academic Region nº 1. Dande is a municipality in the province of Bengo, Angola, based in the city of Mabubas. The project is classified as Category II, accordingly with environmental and social procedures of the AfDB. The environment and social negative impacts will be mainly related to the construction phase of the Technological Park. b) Major environmental and social impacts Positive impacts The main positive impacts resulting from the Design, Construction and Operation of Technological Park of Barra do Dande are listed below: 1. Facilitation of operations related to land issues (resettlement) 2. Creation of temporary jobs and improved living conditions 3. Stimulation of local and regional economy 4. Access to clean water, electricity and local community health services 5. Opening up and improving the road network and communication 6. Access to clean water, electricity and health services 7. Improving living conditions 8. Greater consideration of gender 9. Introduction of environmental and social issues into the training modules 10. Better knowledge on Climate change 11. Installation of solar water heating and solar back up power systems which lead to saving fossil fuels energy sources for the Technological Park 12. Creation of laboratories and workshops that encourage a better environment for science and technology. 13. Rainwater harvesting will be incorporated to improve water availability in the Park and this will be used to do gardening and tree planting and general cleaning. 14. Fostering the development of scientific and technological skills of girls and improving women's involvement in science, technology and innovation. Potential negative impacts The main negative impacts resulting from the Design, Construction and Operation of Technological Park of Barra do Dande are listed below: 1. Soils erosion 2. Water Resources overexploitation (surface water, groundwater) 3. Soil and water pollution 4. Air quality, noise and vibration 5. Deforestation, loss of vegetation and landscape degradation 6. Direct impacts on wildlife 7. Loss, fragmentation and degradation of habitat 8. Risks of involuntary resettlement and conflict in case of occupation of public or private land 9. Risk of displacement, destruction of property and disruption of socio-economic activities related to the existing site. 10. Social conflict risk of non-employment of local labor 11. Pollution and nuisances related to the movement of vehicles for construction site supply 12. Health and safety risks for workers and populations 13. During the operational phase it is expected an increase of water consumption, production of wastewater and solid waste c) Enhancement and mitigation program The ESMP includes measures that must be implemented during both the construction and operational phases of this project. The ESMP is part of the overall Project Management for this investment and further addresses: Management of hazardous materials during the construction and operational phases of the project. Waste management requirements for both hazardous and non-hazardous wastes that will be generated during the construction and operational phases of the project. Occupational health and safety (OHS). Giving the nature of this project, the main negative impacts identified that would require mitigation measures are associated to the construction period. As part of the mitigation program, the measures are organized in the sub-programs. The main sub-programs are listed below: 2. Habitat, Fauna and Flora Conservation Plan Maximize existing road network use Minimize construction of temporary or permanent access roads or tracks Layout new accesses taking into account the direct and indirect environmental impact, in order to provide easier access to the population to currently relatively preserved areas 3. Water and Groundwater Mitigation Plan Minimize interference with groundwater by allowing infiltration in recharge zones Keep distance from existing hydraulic network Application of conservation measures for soil and water at the site Development of adequate water storage on the site(s) Study and develop alternate routes for natural surface water flows at the site Equip construction sites with sufficient toilets; they should include a water treatment system Place site activities that generate waste water (such as depots, mechanical workshops; equipment washing areas, concrete mixing plants) in such a way that the risks of groundwater pollution are minimized Rainwater must be diverted from the work site to the extent possible to avoid contamination Determine the flood elevation prior to site installation, in order to ensure that flooding risk will not concern storage areas (materials, hazardous products) or activities using hazardous products Concrete plant run-off shall be collected and decanted prior to release in the environment Minimize obstruction of river beds and pollution of the same by hydrocarbons and other potential pollutants If a water course is altered by construction activities, make every effort to restore its original geomorphology after completion of civil works 4. Construction Spoils Management Mitigation Plan Identify potentially recyclable materials; investigate local market for the same, and prepare procedures for recycling Selective waste components to ensure separation of non-inert materials prior to final destination Separation of recyclable materials, where required, to ensure maximum value of the same, to allow recycling of wood, polystyrene, plastics and metal scrap Reuse of appropriate demolition rubble as fill material Develop safe temporary packaging and storage (with appropriate labels) at the construction site for hazardous materials until they can be properly managed offsite 5. Natural Resources Use Mitigation Plan Reuse topsoil on project slopes before planting operations Implement water conservation measures (including waste water recycling if possible) Justify processes used in the construction activities that consume the most water (e.g. concrete mixing plant using water closed circuit, vehicles and other equipments washing waters to be reused as far as possible) Maximize the excavation waste recycling for the temporary or permanent road construction 6. Erosion and Sediment Control Plan Avoid storage too close to steep slopes and cliffs Avoid uprooting vegetation outside the project footprint, and clearly mark areas to be left intact Remove and store topsoil, as necessary, with dispositions against moisture, erosion, and exposure to dust Identify and avoid working in erosion-prone areas, especially during dry season Stabilize any gradients that are modified during construction Promote vehicle traffic in stabilized zones Rainwater runoff coming to the work sites must be diverted (gutters, dikes) to decrease volumes to be managed Avoid risks from flooding by determining potential flood levels and making consequent plans to avoid risks from construction activities Water runoff must be channeled in work sites to ensure a better control Regular and after rainy event inspection of diversion and retention devices 7. Fugitive Dust Control and Air Quality Monitoring Plan Periodic monitoring of dust emissions at the quarry sites, at selected locations Use of dust suppression measures (through aspiration or spraying surfaces with water, especially in the area around the screening/crushing units) Minimize dust raised by vehicles on dirt track by implementing traffic control measures (limit vehicle speed, traffic volumes, etc.) Cover (that is, with tarpaulins) materials liable to produce dust during transportation or storage Spray and/or regularly compact dirty tracks with water, and clean vehicles regularly (if necessary and appropriate, within the availability of water in this area) To the extent possible, schedule dust-raising activities during periods when low or no wind velocity is forecasted Clean roads regularly to remove dust and mud deposited by vehicles associated with construction activities Use of metal paneling to protect the plant from

  • Relatório Do Estado Geral Do Ambiente Em Angola
    Governo de Angola Ministério do Urbanismo e Ambiente Relatório do Estado Geral do Ambiente em Angola Relatório do Estado Geral do Ambiente em Angola – MINUA 2006 i Prefácio A face ambiental de Angola mudou profundamente no último decénio. As vastas áreas de florestas diminuíram consideravelmente; a vegetação de savana mudou devido à pressão humana. Uma parte significativa das cidades costeiras do país está desestruturada devido à deslocação das populações rurais para a cidade. À entrada do século XXI, Angola encontra-se numa posição singular exibindo ainda problemas sociais comuns aos países em desenvolvimento, mas enfrentando os mesmos desafios ambientais que os países desenvolvidos. Angola, apesar do longo período de guerra, é ainda uma nação onde a riqueza natural e os valores culturais se pretendem conservar para as futuras gerações. Portanto, é necessário sabedoria, capacidade técnica e profissional para que o país crie as bases para um desenvolvimento sustentável e, para que ao mesmo tempo cumpra com as suas obrigações de participação no processo de mudança global. O acesso a informação actual, segura e oportuna sobre as questões ambientais é um direito consagrado à luz da legislação vigente e uma prioridade da acção governativa. O relatório do estado geral do ambiente que se apresenta põe em evidência os desafios que os angolanos e angolanas devem enfrentar nos próximos tempos para assegurar o seu futuro. As principais questões do ambiente incluem entre outras, a perda de habitats e da diversidade biológica, a desflorestação e erosão de solos, a sobre exploração e poluição de recursos hídricos e a insuficiência de infra estruturas e equipamento social.

  • Inventário Florestal Nacional, Guia De Campo Para Recolha De Dados
    Monitorização e Avaliação de Recursos Florestais Nacionais de Angola Inventário Florestal Nacional Guia de campo para recolha de dados . NFMA Working Paper No 41/P– Rome, Luanda 2009 Monitorização e Avaliação de Recursos Florestais Nacionais As florestas são essenciais para o bem-estar da humanidade. Constitui as fundações para a vida sobre a terra através de funções ecológicas, a regulação do clima e recursos hídricos e servem como habitat para plantas e animais. As florestas também fornecem uma vasta gama de bens essenciais, tais como madeira, comida, forragem, medicamentos e também, oportunidades para lazer, renovação espiritual e outros serviços. Hoje em dia, as florestas sofrem pressões devido ao aumento de procura de produtos e serviços com base na terra, o que resulta frequentemente na degradação ou transformação da floresta em formas insustentáveis de utilização da terra. Quando as florestas são perdidas ou severamente degradadas. A sua capacidade de funcionar como reguladores do ambiente também se perde. O resultado é o aumento de perigo de inundações e erosão, a redução na fertilidade do solo e o desaparecimento de plantas e animais. Como resultado, o fornecimento sustentável de bens e serviços das florestas é posto em perigo. Como resposta do aumento de procura de informações fiáveis sobre os recursos de florestas e árvores tanto ao nível nacional como Internacional l, a FAO iniciou uma actividade para dar apoio à monitorização e avaliação de recursos florestais nationais (MANF). O apoio à MANF inclui uma abordagem harmonizada da MANF, a gestão de informação, sistemas de notificação de dados e o apoio à análise do impacto das políticas no processo nacional de tomada de decisão.

  • Mapping Freshwater Snails in North-Western Angola: Distribution, Identity and Molecular Diversity of Medically Important Taxa
    Allan et al. Parasites & Vectors (2017) 10:460 DOI 10.1186/s13071-017-2395-y RESEARCH Open Access Mapping freshwater snails in north-western Angola: distribution, identity and molecular diversity of medically important taxa Fiona Allan1,2*†, Jose Carlos Sousa-Figueiredo1,3†, Aidan M. Emery1,2, Rossely Paulo3,4, Clara Mirante3, Alfredo Sebastião3, Miguel Brito3,5 and David Rollinson1,2 Abstract Background: This study was designed to determine the distribution and identity of potential intermediate snail hosts of Schistosoma spp. in Bengo, Luanda, Kwanza Norte and Malanje Provinces in north-western Angola. This is an area where infection with Schistosoma haematobium, causing urogenital schistosomiasis, is common but little is yet known about transmission of the disease. Angola has had a varied past with regard to disease control and is revitalising efforts to combat neglected tropical diseases. Methods: Snails were sampled from 60 water-contact points. Specimens of the genera Bulinus, Biomphalaria or Lymnaea were screened for trematode infections by inducing cercarial shedding. Snails were initially identified using shell morphology; subsequently a cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (cox1) gene fragment was amplified from a subset of snails from each site, for molecular identification. Cercariae were captured onto FTA cards for molecular analysis. Specimens of Bulinus angolensis collected from the original locality of the type specimen have been characterised and comparisons made with snails collected in 1957 held at the Natural History Museum, London, UK. Results: In total snails of nine genera were identified using morphological characteristics: Biomphalaria, Bulinus, Gyraulus, Lanistes, Lentorbis, Lymnaea, Melanoides, Physa and Succinea. Significant for schistosomiasis transmission, was the discovery of Bulinus globosus, B.
