INTRODUCTION The subproject of “Improvement and upgrading of the Cao Lanh - Thot Not 220kV Transmission Line” is one of the subprojects that will be implemented in Phase II of the Transmission Efficiency Project (TEP) funded by the World Bank. The subproject will be implemented in districts including Lai Vung, Lap Vo and Cao Lanh, Cao Lanh city - Dong Thap Province and Thot Not District - Can Tho city. The implementation of the subproject is in line with the national Power Development Master Plan 7 (PDMP7) to meet the growing electricity load demand. The activities of subproject include: building a new 220kV transmission line with 20.6km length on the ROW of the existing transmission line and replacing the existing transmission line with 10.5 km length. These activities may cause negative impacts on the local environment and communities during pre-construction, construction, and operation phases. To ensure the potential negative impacts are identified and mitigated during the subproject implementation, and in compliance with the policy on environmental assessment of the World Bank (OP/BP 4.01), an Environmental Management Plan (EMP) of the subproject has been prepared in accordance with the guidelines provided in the Environmental and Social Management Framework (ESMF) of the TEP project. The EMP includes the following contents: an introduction, the main legal framework, the subproject description, the environmental background, potential positive and negative impacts, proposed mitigation measures, and implementation arrangements. It also includes an Environmental Codes of Practice (ECOP) prepared for the subproject. The EMP will be incorporated into the bidding documents and construction contracts, as well as a scope for environment quality monitoring. A Resettlement Plan (RP) has also been prepared for the subproject and is presented separately in another safeguard document. According to Vietnam’s environmental assessment regulation, the subproject is subject to prepare an EIA for submission to the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment (MONRE) for appraisal and approval. The EIA report was submitted to MONRE in Aug., 2014 and was approved on November 14, 2014. 2.
