The purpose of this Initial Environmental Examination (IEE) is to examine the proposed infrastructure components in Nepalganj Municipality to ensure that they will not damage the environment, and to provide guidance for their planning, construction and operation. In the environmental assessment, potential environmental impacts are identified, their significance assessed, and strategies devised to avoid these impacts or reduce them to an acceptable level. These strategies (called ―mitigation measures‖) are then incorporated into the Environmental Management Plan (EMP). The EMP assigns responsibilities, timescales, and performance indicators/standards for each mitigation measure—to make sure that they are implemented and not ignored. An environmental monitoring plan is also added. This recommends protocols and responsibilities for monitoring the operation of the project, within a range of relevant and agreed performance indicators. The project will be implemented by the Nepalganj Municipality with support from the Department of Urban Development and Building Construction in the Ministry of Physical Planning and Works. 2 In Nepalganj Municipality, the following sub-project/components are proposed: (i) stormwater drainage; (ii) roads and lanes improvements and (iii) solid waste management. Community Development Programs will be defined during implementation in poverty pockets, and will be guided by the Environmental Assessment and Review Framework prepared for the project. The subproject will help achieve higher and more socially inclusive economic growth through effective, efficient, and reliable delivery of improved and affordable municipal services by the Municipality to its citizens. 3 The Government of Nepal’s legislation and ADB policy require that the environmental impacts of development projects are identified and assessed as part of the planning and design processes, and that action is taken to reduce those impacts to acceptable levels. This is done through the environmental assessment process, which has become an integral part of lending operations and project development and implementation worldwide. 4 Overall, the impacts of the subprojects will be very positive for the environment and the public if they are properly implemented and environmental issues duly considered. Some negative impacts are anticipated during construction but in specific areas and for short duration (dust, noise, traffic problems, etc.). It is expected that the adverse environmental impacts of the planned subprojects will in general not be significant and can be easily and reasonably mitigated and prevented through adequate mitigation measures and regular monitoring during the design, construction and operation phases. This IEE will be disclosed on ADB’s website and within the Project Implementation Units in Nepalganj and Project the Coordination Office in the Department of Urban Development and Building Construction. I. INTRODUCTION A. Purpose of the Report 1. The Government of Nepal requested a loan and grant from the Asian Development Bank (ADB) for the Integrated Urban Development Project. The Project aims to improve quality of life and to help achieve higher and socially inclusive economic growth in four key municipalities in Nepal, Nepalgunj, Siddarthanagar, Janakpur and Dharan, through improved and affordable municipal services delivered effectively, efficiently and reliably by accountable local bodies. The Project will implement urban environmental improvement, on an integrated basis, in the areas of drainage, municipal roads, solid waste management, and water supply. 2. In Nepalgunj municipality, the following components are proposed: (i) stormwater drainage; (ii) roads and lanes improvements, (iii) solid waste management, and (iv) community development programs.Community Development Programs will be defined during implementation in poverty pockets, and will be guided by the Environmental Assessment and Review Framework prepared for the project. Table 1 provides a summary of the proposed components in Nepalgunj municipality. Table 1: Nepalgunj Project Components Stormwater Drainage Rehabilitation of the existing system Improvement in the cross-sectional area of the Dondra Nala (L=11 km) Improvement of 3.2 km of earthen drain from Karkanda to Dondra Nala Construction of 1.8km of lined drain up to Dondra Nala on the road to Paraspur.

Chitrakoot, Satna, M.P.India4 *Corresponding Author ABSTRACT: Remote Sensing and GIS is well-knowntechnology for establishment of flood inundation model for planners and decision makers for flood management. Generally, flood is submerging of water in a normally dry area. There are many factors responsible for flood such as rainstorms, slow water run-off, intensity of rainfall, duration of rainfall, catchment size, earthquakes, broken dams etc. Uttar Pradesh is one of the states which facing flood problem every year because of over flow of waterin rivers flowing through the state as Ganga, Yamuna, Ramganga, Gomti, Ghaghra, Sharda, Rapti, BhuriRapti etc. In 2013, 64 districts of Uttar Pradesh wereadversely affected by flood. Large area of agriculture land, population and household were affected by flood and waterlogging every year. The present study indicates the significance of Remote Sensing and GIS for developing a flood inundation model to assess the flood affected areas and numbers of flood inundated villages in each district in almost real time.
