Chapter 6 Existing Environment 6.1 EIA for the Proposed Development of 55MW Gas Fired Power Plant and Project No: P18006 New Plant Components at the Integrated Iron and Steel Mill, Teluk Kalung Revision: 0 Industrial Estate, Kemaman, Terengganu for Eastern Steel Sdn. Bhd. Date: October 2019 CHAPTER 6 EXISTING ENVIRONMENT 6.1 INTRODUCTION This section highlights the existing environmental condition in three (3) major components, namely physicochemical, biological and human within the Project’s vicinity. Information presented here is primarily to present an overview of existing environmental conditions surrounding the project site within 5 km radius which is then assessed for identification of the environmental receptors due to this Project and any concerned existing conditions that are likely to be impacted by the Project implementation. For the EIA Study, the Zone of Study extends for five (5) km radius from the boundary of the Project Site. [Zone of Study – is the boundary of the study area for baseline data collection. Zone of Study may not be the same as the Zone of Impact for assessment conducted. In the event, the assessment impacts are found extended or beyond the Zone of Study, this will be addressed accordingly] Assessment of the existing environmental condition will be documented according to site surveys and published secondary data (i.e. maps, reports, local plans) made available by the relevant government agencies. Following sections presents the existing information gathered via available documents. 6.2 PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT 6.2.1 Site Physical Setting The proposed Project lies within existing IISM premise. The entire IISM is located at Lot 6293, 6294, 60129, 60130 and 60131 within establish heavy industrial area, Teluk Kalung Industrial Estate (TKIE) in Kemaman, Terengganu. The location of IISM Plant is as shown in Chapter 1, Figure 1-1. The land is owned by the Eastern Steel with total land area of approximately 1,208 ac. The nearest township is Chukai Town, which located about 10 km to the south. Kerteh Town is about 25 km away northeast of the Project. The Project site presently falls under mukim Kemaman and the District of Kemaman and is under administrative area of Majlis Perbandaran Kemaman (MPK). 6.2.2 Topography Project site is located in Teluk Kalung Industrial Estate (TKIE). The TKIE stretched from the area around Bukit Setongkol (north) to the coast near Kemaman Port. The original topography of the Project site was low lying and flat area with an elevation of lower than 20 m, as it was previously swampland. Topography map of Project Site is shown in Figure 6-1. Page 6-1 EIA for the Proposed Development of 55MW Gas Fired Power Plant and Project No: P18006 New Plant Components at the Integrated Iron and Steel Mill, Teluk Kalung Revision: 0 Industrial Estate, Kemaman, Terengganu for Eastern Steel Sdn. Bhd. Date: October 2019 However, over the time, the area has been filled to the desired platform level and well developed where a large tract of the industrial area is sited on flat surface. Hence, current topography of the Eastern Steel is relatively flat with the highest level is at 98.3m at southern section and 92.0m at northern section. 6.2.3 Geology The TKIE is underlained by predominantly unconsolidated sediment from the Quaternary age. The sediment consists of clay, silt and sandy material with accompanying lenses interbedded with main soil layers. Based on the Geology Map of Peninsular Malaysia, the underlaying soil composition of the Project site is characterized as peat, humic clay and silt (Figure 6-2). 6.2.4 Soil Based on the Reconnaissance Soil Map of Peninsular Malaysia, the underlying soil composition of the Project site is characterized as peat.

The mean concentrations of ammonia, nitrate, total dissolved N and total particulate N were 43 µg/L N, 195 µg/L N, 485 µg/L N, 431 µg/L N, respectively. In contrast to N, lower mean concentrations of P were recorded with values of 2.30 µg/L P (dissolved inorganic P), 4.84 µg/L P (total dissolved P) and 8.35 µg/L P (total particulate P). In general, higher concentrations of nutrients were recorded in the middle and lower reaches of the river basin due to human activities. Elevated levels of both forms of nutrients were present during the wet season due to terrestrial run-off to the water column.

  • Geochemistry of Sediment in the Major Estuarine Mangrove Forest of Terengganu Region, Malaysia
    American Journal of Applied Sciences 5 (12): 1707-1712, 2008 ISSN 1546-9239 © 2008 Science Publications Geochemistry of Sediment in the Major Estuarine Mangrove Forest of Terengganu Region, Malaysia 1B.Y. Kamaruzzaman, 2M.C. Ong, 2M.S. Noor Azhar, 1S. Shahbudin and 1K.C.A. Jalal 1Institute of Oceanography and Maritime Studies, International Islamic University Malaysia, 25200 Kuantan, Pahang, Malaysia 2Institute of Oceanography, Universiti Malaysia Terengganu, 21030 Kuala Terengganu, Terengganu, Malaysia Abstract: Surface sediments collected from seven estuarine mangrove forests of Terengganu region (100 sampling points) were anaylzed for Pb, Cu and Zn using the sensitive Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometer (ICP-MS). The average concentration of Pb, Cu and Zn were 10.5±7.12 µg g−1 dry weights, 31.1±16.5 µg g−1 dry weights and 20.8±13.3 µg g−1 dry weights, respectively. The statistical analysis of Pearson correlation matrix has proved that there is a significant relationship between the metal concentration and the grain size. The concentration of Pb, Cu and Zn decreased with the decrease of mean size particle, suggesting their association with the fine fraction of the sediments. In this study, Enrichment Factors (EF) were calculated to assess whether the concentrations observed represent background or contaminated levels. The analysis suggests that all studied elements were considered to be dominantly terrigenous in origin. Data obtained also provides a scientific discovery and data for a better understanding and proper management of the mangrove forests of Terengganu. Key words: Surface sediment, lead, copper, zinc, mangrove forest, enrichment factor INTRODUCTION effects associated with the new developments.

  • Assessing Challenges Facing the ECRL's Economic
    ISSUE: 2021 No. 90 ISSN 2335-6677 RESEARCHERS AT ISEAS – YUSOF ISHAK INSTITUTE ANALYSE CURRENT EVENTS Singapore | 6 July 2021 Assessing Challenges Facing the ECRL’s Economic Accelerator Projects (EAPs) Tham Siew Yean and Kevin Zhang* A general view of the Dungun Tunnel is pictured during a ceremony at the East Coast Rail Link (ECRL) project in Dungun, Terengganu, on 25 July 2019. On this day, Malaysia restarted a $10-billion, China-backed rail project.

Kevin Zhang is Research Officer of the Malaysia Studies Programme at ISEAS – Yusof Ishak Institute. The authors would like to thank Rebecca Neo for creating the GIS maps. 1 ISSUE: 2021 No. 90 ISSN 2335-6677 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY • The East Coast Rail Link (ECRL) launched in 2017 to enhance connectivity between the west and east coast of Peninsular Malaysia was renegotiated and rebooted in 2019. It is currently proceeding on track, towards completion by 2027. • The Malaysian Investment Development Authority (MIDA) launched Economic Accelerator Projects (EAPs) in 2019 to drive up demand for freight and passenger services by increasing economic activities along the ECRL routes, by means of industrial parks, and logistic hubs and Transit-Oriented Developments (TODs). • If industrial parks are to be used to attract investments to the less developed states in Peninsular Malaysia, reforms to local institutions and upgrading of the investment environment there will be needed. • Having inter-modal transportation centres such as dry ports and TODs along the ECRL route are promising; however, the location of these centres should be determined according to technical criteria, rather than by changes in administration.
