(iv) 14012 m of distribution lines proposed in Nagri.

5. 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, this subproject 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.

6. 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.

7. This IEE aims 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 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.

8. Description of the Environment: The subproject components locations are in subproject towns of Kukdeshwar, Nayagaon, Sarwaniya Maharaj, Nagriand their surroundings. In all the towns water sources are located outside the towns (~5 to 20 km) and intakes will be constructed at or near the sources on a government owned land, and intake pipes will be laid into the sources to draw water. WTPs will be constructed on government owned land parcels either within or close to the towns. Most of these facilities are surrounded

by agricultural lands. Raw water pipes from source to WTPs will be laid along the existing roads. None of the components are located in or near any sensitive lands like forests. Rest of the components – water tanks, distribution lines, connections etc., will be located within the towns/urban areas. The raw water transmission pipes, connecting intake and WTP, will be essentially outside the town, and clear water transmission pipes, from WTP to distribution reservoirs, will be partly outside and partly within the towns. 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 the sources are converted mostly into agricultural. A forest area is located near the source at Sarwaniya Maharaj, however, no encroachment/damage to forest envisaged due to project. There are no protected areas, like wildlife sanctuaries, national parks, nor there are any historically, archeologically protected areas in the vicinity. Towns are densely populated in the core/old town areas with narrow lanes, and small and closely built houses, while most of the areas are undeveloped and are still under agricultural use. Commercial areas are along the main roads, which are mostly congested with activities, pedestrians and traffic.

9. Potential Environmental Impacts: The subproject is unlikely to cause significant adverse impacts because: (i) relatively small scale as the population and water demand is minimal, (ii) the components will involve straightforward construction and operation, so impacts will be mainly localized; 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.

10. Environmental impacts as being due to the project design or location are not significant. The proposed water supply schemes include design of new water sources for two towns (Kukdeshwar and Nagri), and continuation of existing sources in the remaining 2 towns (Sarwaniya Maharaj and Nayagaon). Source analysis conducted on these sources confirmed that source is sustainable, and there are unlikely to have any adverse impacts on environment or existing uses and unlikely to create social conflicts. Yield tests are conducted on open wells at downstream of Morwan Dam for Sarwaniya Maharaj, and confirmed that water is adequate to meet the demand. Water will be sourced from existing dams (Gandhisagar Dam for Kukdeshwar and Rupaniyakhal Dam for Nagri), which have comparatively large storage, and necessary water allocation will be obtained from the Water Resources Department. In Nayagaon, existing source – an abandoned lime stone quarry pond of a Cement Plant, which in use for many years, will be continued. Random water quality test conducted during the project preparation indicated that the water quality is suitable for domestic supply after conventional treatment. However, considering the nature and location of source within a cement factory compound receiving runoff also from the factory areas, a comprehensive water quality testing program is suggested in the IEE to confirm the quality, and it will be conducted prior to the start of work.

11. During construction, potential negative impacts mainly 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. Operation phase impacts are likely to be insignificant.

12. Environmental Management Plan: An environmental management plan (EMP) has been developed to provide mitigation measures to reduce all negative impacts to acceptable levels. Locations and siting of the proposed infrastructures were considered to further reduce impacts. 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.

13. The EMP includes design measures such as (i) wash water recovery for the WTP to reduce effluent to be discharged and safe sludge disposal (ii) energy efficient pumping equipment and (iii) quick leak detection and rectification to save the resources, etc. During construction, the EMP includes mitigation measures such as (iv) implementation of traffic management plan in coordination with local traffic police to minimize traffic impacts; (v) awareness campaigns and consultations to inform residents and businesses of potential disturbances; (vi) provision of walkways and planks over trenches to ensure access will not be impeded; (vii) use of noise-dampening measures in areas with sensitive receptors such as hospitals, schools, places of worships and other silence-zones; (viii) use of dust-suppression methods such as watering and/or covering of stockpiles; and (ix) 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.

14. 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.

15. 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.

16. Consultation, Disclosure and Grievance Redress Mechanism: The stakeholders were involved in developing the IEE through discussions on-site and public consultation at 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.

17. Implementation Arrangements: Urban Development and Environment Department (UDED) 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.

18. Monitoring and Reporting: The PMU and PMC will be responsible for monitoring. The PMC 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.

19. 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 (i) Water Resources Department (WRD) for water abstraction of water for Kukdeshwar, Nagri and Sarwaniya Maharaj, and from Cement Corporation of India (CCI) for Nayagaon water source, and (ii) consent of Madhya Pradesh Pollution Control Board (MPPCB) for WTPs. These permissions/approvals shall be obtained prior to award of contracts.

20. Comprehensive water quality tests will be conducted for Nayagaon CCI source to confirm the water quality. 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.

5. The subproject towns of Kukdeshwar, Nayagaon, Sarwaniya Maharaj and Nagri are located in the northwestern part of Madhya Pradesh state, and improvement of water supply in these five towns is one of the subprojects proposed under MPUSIP. The objective of the subproject is to achieve safe and sustainable water services both in terms of services to customers, cost recovery and conservation of precious water resources. The subproject envisages providing 100% coverage of population with continuous, pressurized and safe drinking water services and achieving progressively increasing cost recovery by expanding the coverage and increasing operating efficiency. The subproject includes civil works (stop dams, intake, WTP, raw and clear water transmission, storage tanks, distribution network, consumer connections and flow meters), project implementation and management, and non- physical investments. A detailed description of the components is provided in Section III.

B. Purpose of this IEE Report

6. 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.

7. This IEE is based on the detailed engineering report prepared by the Design Consultant team and will be finalized during implementation stage by DBO contractor to reflect any changes and latest subproject designs. The IEE was based mainly on field reconnaissance surveys and secondary sources of information. No field monitoring (environmental) survey was conducted however, the environmental monitoring program developed as part of the environmental management plan (EMP) will require the contractors to establish the baseline environmental conditions prior to commencement of civil works. The

12 results will be reported as part of the environmental monitoring report and will be the basis to ensure no degradation will happen during subproject implementation. Stakeholder consultation was an integral part of the IEE.

III. DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT

A. Project Area

9. Project area comprises the urban areas and surroundings of Kukdeshwar, Nayagaon, and Sarwaniya Maharaj in Neemuch District and Nagri in Mandsaur District in Malwa region in western part of Madhya Pradesh state. Towns are located at about 15-30 km the respective district headquarters. These towns are located about 400 km northwest of from state capital Bhopal and are well connected by highways and railways. Nearest airport is at Indore, about 250 km (Figure 1).

10. Subproject components are located within the urban areas and surroundings. While water sources, intakes and WTPs are located outside the towns, all other components are located within the towns.

Figure 1: Subproject location

B. Existing Water Supply Situation

1. Kukdeshwar

11. Kukdeshwar is located on State highway 31A, about 40 km east of district headquarter Neemuch. The area of the town 2.59 sq. Km. and population as per 2011 census is 11,956.

12. Present water supply of the Kukdeshwar town is mostly depend on ground water i.e. on 3 tube wells, 38 nos. of hand pumps and 2 open wells. Water from the tube wells and open wells are pumped to two OHT’s. Total 75 Hp (15 Hp on each tube well and 15 Hp on each open well) capacity pumps are installed at 3 tube wells and 2 open wells. Both the OHT’s are filled only once in a day. It takes approximately 8 hours to fill the 169 KL OHT and

14 approximately 6 - 7 hours to fill 150 KL OHT. Then the water is distributed with the help of 7 km of distribution system having PVC pipes from 65 to 100 mm diameter and ACP pipes having diameter 80 mm to 150 mm laid in the town. Thus the total water supplied to the Kukdeshwar town at present is 3.2 LacsLitres i.e. 27 LPCD.

13. In year 1991 group water supply scheme was partially executed by Public Health Engineering Department. Proposed source was Gandhi Sagar Dam. Under this scheme 0.5 MLD WTP was constructed in Rampur town and 300 mm CI Pipeline was laid down for some distance. Since the scheme was not completed, Nagar ParishadKukdeshwar has handed over 0.5 MLD WTP to Rampura town. The present condition of WTP is not in working condition.

14. Present water supply arrangements are not adequate and ground water source level is depleting day by day, therefore water scarcity conditions are arising. Water supply losses during transmission are also very high i.e. more than 40%, that leads to a high energy consumption and loss of ULB. Therefore, new water supply scheme is proposed to be implemented for population of 17,500 souls for a year 2048 (Ultimate Year of Design) considering water supply at the rate 70 LPCD and source as surface source to ensure adequate quantity, quality and desired pressure at doorstep of each household.

2. Nayagaon

15. Nayagaon is on the border of the Neemuch District and Chittorgarh District of Rajasthan. It is located along NH (national highway) 79, about 16 km northwest of Neemuch. Nayagaon and surroundings are famous for limestone mines and is home for some of the well- known cement industries in India. The total area of the town is 14.83 sq.km and total population as per 2011 census is 6553.

16. At present water supply source is water storage at CCI limestone mine for catering water supply to the town which comprises of two 8-HP motor. Water from Pondage is pumped to 2 OHTs having capacity 100 KL each. Then water supply distribution system is laid of diameters 90 / 100 / 160 mm PVC pipes. Total 5.0 km water supply distribution system is laid in the Nayagaon town. Thus, total water supply to the Nayagaon town maid is 0.35 MLD i.e. 53 LPCD, which is far below the guidelines of MPUSIP as 70 LPCD. As 100 KL tank at Nagar Parishad is constructed in the year of 2000, covering ward no 1,9,10,11,12,14 and 15.

17. Present water supply arrangements are not adequate and ground water source level is depleting day by day, therefore water scarcity conditions are arising. Water supply losses during transmission are also very high approximately 40%, that leads to a high energy consumption and loss of ULB. Therefore, new water supply scheme is proposed to be implemented for population of 11,200 souls for a year 2048 (Ultimate Year of Design) considering water supply at the rate 70 LPCD and source as surface source to ensure adequate quantity, quality and desired pressure at doorstep of each household

18. Sarwaniya Maharaj town is located about 16 km northeast of district head quarter, Neemuch. Town is connected by Neemch – Ratangard Road.The total area of the town is 3sqkm and total population as per 2011 census is 6,737.

19. At present water supply source is Ground Water as well as surface water for catering water supply to the town which comprises of 1 working tube wells, 12 hand pumps (8 working) and 3 open wells. Major water supply of the town is done by open wells. One of the open well is situated near Morwan Dam Water from this well is pumped to Town. Around 9Km of pumping is done. Water from all these sources is pumped to 2 OHTs having capacity 100 KL and 50 KL. Then water supply distribution system is laid of diameters 90 / 100 mm PVC pipes and

100/ 150 mm ACP Pipes. Thus total water supply to the Sarwaniya Maharaj town maid is 0.40 MLD i.e. 50 LPCD, which is below the guidelines laid by MPUSIP for supplying water to smaller towns @ 70lpcd.

20. The 2 OHTs in the town, which are constructed in the year 1979 (50KL tank) and 2005 (100KL tank). Out of these two tanks only one tank of capacity 100KL is proposed to be used in the new scheme with some renovation. Present water source is not sufficient to meet the water demand of the town therefore new water supply scheme is needs to be implemented for population for the of 13,800 souls for a year 2048 (Ultimate Year of Design) considering 70 LPCD water supply and source as surface source to ensure adequate quantity, quality and desired pressure at doorstep of each household.

4. Nagri

21. Nagri is one of the oldest municipalities and a tehsil headquarter in Mandsaur District. It is located at a distance of 25 km south of Mandsaur city, and on a road 4 km off of NH 79. The total area of the town is 4 sqkm and population as per 2011 census is 7,034.

22. At present water supply source is Ground Water Source catering water supply to the town which comprises of 3 working tube wells, 12 hand pumps and 2 open wells. Water from all these ground water is pumped to 2 OHTs having capacity 100 KL and 450 KL. Then water supply distribution system is laid of diameters 90 / 100 / 160 mm PVC pipes and 100/ 150mm ACP Pipes. Total 7 Km water supply distribution system is laid in the Nagri town. Thus, total water supply to the Nagri town maid is 0.15 MLD i.e. 21 LPCD, which is far below the service level benchmarking of 135 LPCD.

23. The OHT of 450 KL capacity is constructed in the year of 2010, covering ward no 14 & 15. It is proposed to use this in new scheme with some reconditioning and renovation. Present water supply arrangements are not adequate and ground water source level is depleting day by day, therefore water scarcity conditions are arising. Water supply losses during transmission are also very high approximately 40%, that leads to a high energy consumption and loss of ULB. Therefore, new water supply scheme is needs to be implemented for population for the of 12,000 souls for a year 2048 (Ultimate Year of Design) considering 70 LPCD water supply and source as surface source to ensure adequate quantity, quality and desired pressure at door step of each household.

24. Overall, the current water supply systems in all the fivetowns face similar issues predominantly resulting from receding groundwater sources, low coverage and unreliable supply, inadequate infrastructure and heavy water losses. There is no treatment facility, and the water is supplied without any treatment.

C. Proposed Project

25. As part of this project, it is proposed to develop comprehensive water supply schemes in each of the five project towns. Proposals include new/improved water sources and/or intakes, treatment facilities, storage reservoirs, pumping, transmission and distribution infrastructure. Project will also provide consumer connections with flow meters. Bulk flow meters are proposed at strategic locations to monitor the system performance efficiency.

26. Following Table 1 shows the proposed water supply systems along with nature and size of components in four subproject towns. Figure 2 to Figure 13 show the proposed water systems, component layouts etc.

27. Project benefits. The subproject aims to achieve safe and sustainable water services both in terms of services to customers, cost recovery and conservation of precious water

16 resources. The subproject will provide continuous, pressurized and safe drinking water services to entire population of the towns (100% coverage). Besides achieving progressively increasing cost recovery by expanding the coverage and increasing operating efficiency, the subproject will improve the overall environmental quality of the town. It will reduce the reduced time and costs of households in accessing alternative sources of water, and will lead to better public health particularly reduction in waterborne and infectious diseases.

IV. POLICY, LEGAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE FRAMEWORK

A. ADB Policy

28. 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.

29. 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.

30. 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.

31. 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

32. 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.

33. Applicable Environmental Regulations: Besides EIA Notification 2006, there are various 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 2.

Table 2: Applicable Environmental Regulations Law Description Requirement Madhya Pradesh Prepared in accordance with the National Water Permission of WRD, State Water Policy, it states that “for environmental balance, GoMP: Policy, 2003 skillful and planned management of all types of • Water allocation / developmental activities, economic use on abstraction from equitable basis and in view of the prime importance Gandhi Sagar Dam for of water for all human and other living beings, an Kukdeshwar; from effective and sound water policy is necessary”. Rupaniyakal Dam for Policy is detailed in 17 sections dealing with Nagri and from open different aspects of water resources. No. 7 deals well below Morwan with Water Allocation Priorities, and according to dam for Sarwaniya which drinking water supply shall have the highest Maharaj 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 (Prevention Act was enacted to provide for the prevention and WTPs require CTE (prior and Control of control of water pollution and the maintaining or to start of constriction) and Pollution) Act of restoring of wholesomeness of water, by Central CFO (prior to start of 1974, Rules of and State Pollution Control Boards and for operation) from MPPCB. 1975, and conferring and assigning to CPCB/SPCBs powers amendments &functions relating to water pollution control.

These conditions regulate the quantity and quantity of effluent, the location of discharge and the frequency of monitoring of effluents. Any component of the subproject having the potential to generate sewage or trade effluent will come under its purview. Such projects have to obtain Consent to Establish (CTE) & Consent to Operate (CTO) under Section 25 from Madhya Pradesh Pollution Control Board (MPPCB) Environment Emissions and discharges from the facilities to be Appendix 2 provides (Protection) Act, created or refurbished or augmented shall comply applicable standards for 1986 and CPCB with the notified standards ambient air quality.

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

34. 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. 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:

Table 3:Table 3: WHO Ambient Air& Noise Quality Guidelines

V. DESCRIPTION OF THE ENVIRONMENT

A. Methodology Used for Baseline Study

35. Data collection and stakeholder consultations. Data for this study has been primarily collected through literature survey, discussion with stakeholder agencies, and field visits to the proposed subproject sites.

36. The literature 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, relevant government agencies like WRD, 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.

37. 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.

B. Baseline Environmental Profile

38. Following Table 4, presents the baseline environmental profile of subproject towns of Kukdeshwar, Nayagaon, Sarwaniya Maharaj and Nagri. It is organized in terms of physical, ecological, economical, and socio cultural resources. Relevant data tables, further information, if any, is provided in appendices (Appendix 7 to 19) for further reference.

Baseline Kukdeshwar Nayagaon SarwaniyaMaharaj Nagri characteristics has been detected in the district. Air quality No air quality data available for the subproject towns. However, there are no air pollution sources, except the dust, which is mainly due to dry weather, activities like traffic movement. In the area surrounding Nayagaon, there are cement industries, which are potential air polluting industries. Ecological Project area mostly comprises urban areas, agricultural areas of Athana, Kukdeshwar, Nayagaon, SarwaniyaMaharaj and Nagri which are converted to human use many years back. Extent of forest areas in the project area is very limited, and none of the project components are located in the forest areas. In Athana, forest areas are located near the source at SukhanandSagar Dam. While dam is located on a valley portion, and occupied by mostly with agricultural lands, the surrounding hills are under forests. These are open forests with shrubs and bushes, and trees. Flora in that area consist of mixed forest,bamboo, teak, sal etc.

The raw water pipeline from SukhanandSagar to Athana will be laid along a road, that is adjoining one-side the dam, and one side by the forest areas. The pipeline will be laid in the road right of way, and and will not encroach into the forest as these are clearly demarcated and separated by boundary fence.

VI. ANTICIPATED ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS AND MITIGATION MEASURES

40. 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.

41. 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.

42. 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).

43. 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.

44. 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.

45. 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, and necessary water allocations are being made from Water Resources Department(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 project will be in properties held by the local government and access to the project location is through public rights-of-way and existing roads hence, land acquisition and encroachment on private property will not occur.

A. Pre-Construction Impacts – Design & Location

46. Design of the Proposed Components. Technical design of the (i) intake facilities, (ii) water treatment plant; (iii) raw water and clear water mains, (iv) storage reservoirs, and (v) distribution network, connections, flow meters, etc., follows the 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) Discontinuation of current unsustainable groundwater sources and creating a new water supply system based on nearest surface water sources, and continuation of existing sources, where feasible (ii) Recovering backwash water from treatment process (iii) Treatment and reuse of sludge from treatment process (iv) Minimizing water losses from pipelines by perfect jointing and alignments using appropriate techniques (HDPE pipes up to 150 mm dia joined by electro fusion couplers using on-site electro fusion welding, and all higher dia pipes by on site butt welding) (v) Designing the entire system to maintain optimal flow and terminal pressure, and optimising the overall energy usage (vi) Reducing the incidence of water borne diseases by providing 100% population including urban poor with potable water supplies (vii) 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 (viii) 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 (ix) Using low-noise and energy efficient pumping systems

47. Water Source& Sustainability. As the subproject towns are located far from each other there was no possibility of a combined source/ bulk water scheme. Therefore, independent water supply schemes are proposed for 5 towns separately based on the most feasible water source considering techno-economic and environmental considerations as elucidated below (Table 9).

Table 9: Water Source Selection & Sustainability Subproject Town Alternative Sources Selected Source and Associated Impacts due to abstraction Kukdeshwar Groundwater: Presently only 0.32 MLD of water is being supplied For the Kukdeshwar town, the demand of water through ground sources (3 nos of tube wells, 12 nos of Hand Pumps & supply for the year 2018, 2033 & 2048 are estimated 2 nos of open well). These sources are giving very less yield. Based on to the tune of 1.20 MLD, 1.40 MLD & 1.60 MLD the available data the present tube wells may supply water to the town respectively. Thus maximum of1.60 MLD intake form at the tune of maximum 0.16 MLD. And therefore no considered for the source per annum i.e. 585 ML (0.59 MCM) of future project. drawl of water is to be ensured. Annual average Danderi River flows from North-West to South- East direction and recoupment of water in the tank every year is located around 9 km away on the west side of Kukdeshwar Town on around6910MCM. While the recoupment of water Manasa Road. It starts from the Bherpura village of Manasa Tehsil and during rainy season is 6910 MCM which is12000 ends in Gandhi Sagar Dam. Total length of travel is approximately times than the annual water demand of Kukdeshwar 19km. This river flows mostly during the rainy season and remains dry town. The salient feature of Gandhisagar dam is almost8 months of a year. Also the river bed is flat and there is no deep given in Appendix 12. The water quality of the dam is valley in the entire length of travel. Hence it is not possible to construct good for consumption and given in Appendix 10. a check dam or bund where we can store and fulfill the water demand of Kukdeshwar town. Jannod River is not a perennial river. Rain water from the Jannod and Amad hill ranges and surrounding areas like Chikli Block, Amarpura and Danta are coming to the river. Jannod River starts from Danta village of Manasa Tehsil and ends in Gandhi Sagar Dam near Jannod village. The approximate length of travel is around 13 km. This river is also a subsidiary of Gandhi Sagar Dam. This river flows mostly during the rainy season and remains dry almost8months of a year. There is no assurance to getting the 100% water demand of Kukdeshwar town during the entire year The Gandhi Sagar Dam is one of the four major dams built on India's Chambal River. The dam is located in the Mandsaur district of the state of Madhya Pradesh. It is a masonry gravity dam, standing 62.17 metres (204.0 ft.) high, with a gross storage capacity of 7.322billion cubic metres from a catchment area of 22,584 Km2 (8,720 Sq Miles). The construction of the main dam was completed in 1960. Nayagaon CCI Dam on Gambhiri River as a source: CCI has constructed a Dam For the Nayagaon town, the demand of water supply on Gambhiri River in 1990 as a source for their need for industrial for the year purpose. It is a stop dam located near the Kamavat village around 12 2018, 2033 & 2048 are estimated to the tune of 0.7

km from the town. CCI had used the dam for 5years. Presently water is MLD, 0.8 MLD & 0.9 MLD respectively. Thus not taken from the dam as it is very far from the and also not a reliable maximum of 0.9 MLD intake form the source per source for the town. annum i.e. 328.5 ML (0.328 MCM) of drawl of water is CCI limestone mine Water Pond as a Source. Cement corporation of to be ensured. While the calculation if the Pond shows India had started there cement factory in 1984 and stopped their work that the average water storage in the reservoir is in 1995. Since then the lime stone mine that is been used since then got 8.05MCM which is 25 times the yearly requirement of abundant and water got started stored in it during rainfall and there also the town. Thus from the calculation we can say that an existence of some ground water. By the present time the limestone the quantity of water from the source can be ensured. mine got filled with water. Since there is no fault zone in the mine the Salient features of the pond is given below: water gets stored in the mine. At present Nagar Parishad is supplying 1. Area of CCI Pond 35 Ha (349944 Sq water from the same mine. As the mine is lime stone mine it works as a m) natural disinfectant which makes the stored water fit for daily use. There is no any aquatic life in CCI pond during site visit. Upon consultation 2. Top Level of Pond 465.32 m with local public, it was known that aquatic life is not found in CCI pond. 3. Bottom Level of Pond 442.45 m 4. Average Maximum Depth of Pond 23 m 5. Volume of Pond 8048712 m3 6. Capacity of Pond 8048 MLD ( 8.05 MCM) Random water quality test is conducted to study the quality of water in source. Results are presented in Appendix 14A. Water quality is good and suitable for domestic water supply after conventional treatment. However, considering the nature and location of source within a cement factory compound receiving runoff from the factory areas, a comprehensive water quality monitoring testing program will be conducted to confirm the quality prior to the start of work. Appendix 14B presents the suggested monitoring program. Sarwaniya Maharaj Groundwater: Presently only 0.40 MLD of water is being supplied Open well near Morwan Dam is selected for water through ground sources like 1 nos of tube wells, 8 nos of Hand Pumps supply source as the well is continuously recharged &3 nos of open well. These entire sources are giving very less yield. with Morwan dam. Quality of water is also safe for

Based on the available data the present tube wells may supply water to water supply. The open well is currently used as water the town at the tune of maximum 0.04 MLD. source for the SarwaniyaMaharaj.

Open well at the downstream side of Morewan Dam Yield test of open well in Morwan was conducted on This well is in use since xxxx year, the depth of well xx m and diameter 24.05.2016 as per advice of PPTA safeguard team is xx. This is located just downstream of the dam, and the water level is and MPUDC officers. The depth of open well was 30.0 always maintained with the dam water level. Dam holds water feet (10.00 meter). Ground level of open well is throughout the year, though level fluctuated between fill level in 469.243 meter and pre test static level of water was monsoon to minimum level in summer. Details of Morewan dam are 464.79 meter. During the test, open well submersible provided in Appendix 15. pump of capacity 14.7 LPS and motor having capacity 15 HP is being used for yield test. In yield test, constant pumping was done for 15 hours and water recovery test was done for 8 hours. Constant rate pumping test was started at 7.00 AM, at that time the water level in the well was 464.79 meter and the depth of water was 4.69 meter. At the end of yield test at 10.00 PM, the RL of water was 462.96 meter and depth of water was 2.87 meter. During the last 10 hours of yield test, the water level was reduced from 3.63 to 2.87 meter indicate the rate of water recharge of well is quite good.

Detailed Yield test report id given in Appendix 16. The yield of the well is 11.17 LPM. Water level is recovered in just 10 hours. Hence it shows that the well is self to cater the water demand of SarwaniyaMaharaj town for proposed water supply scheme. Since water quality test for deciding source to be taken as water source, it is proved to be good source based on the water sample test reports obtained from recognized PHED Laboratory, Bhopal. Water quality results are presented in Appendix 14. Nagri Groundwater: Presently only 0.15 MLD of water is being supplied Rupaniyakhal Dam is selected for water supply in through ground sources like 3 nos of tube wells, 12 nos of Hand Pumps town as water availability in dam throughout the year. & 2 nos of open well.

It is constructed in maximum of 1.1 MLD intake from the source per 1994. The total length of the dam is 785 m and height is 18.70 m. annum i.e. 401.5 ML (0.4 MCM) of drawl of water is to Details of dam are provided in Appendix 18. be ensured. In dam, the recoupment of water during rainy season is 24.02 MCM which is 60 times than the annual water demand of Nagri town.

Water quality is appropriate to use as domestic source after conventional treatment. Water quality details are provided in Appendix 16.

48. Source Sustainability and Environmental Considerations. Of the four project towns, for two towns – Kukudeswar and Nagri, water is proposed to be sourced from the existing dams, with comparatively huge storage. Necessary permissions and water allocation in the dam for domestic water supply will be obtained from the Water Resources Department. Adequate water is available to meet the demand, no conflicts or impacts on existing uses are envisaged as the water allocation will be made. The water withdrawal for the project is very less compared to water availability and therefore no significant impacts envisaged. For Sarwaniya Maharaj water will be sourced from existing open shallow wells located very close to the dams. These sources are already under use as source for respective municipalities. The dams directly recharge wells, and therefore yield of the wells is adequate to meet the demand. Yield tests conducted during the project preparation confirmed adequate yield and water recuperation. No impacts therefore envisaged. For the remaining town – Nayagaon, water is proposed to be sourced from an abandoned lime quarry pit, which has become a pond with huge water storage. This is already being used as source by Nayagaon nagar parishad and it will be continued to be used for the project also. The estimated storage in the pond is huge compared to the demand, and the water is exclusively used for the water supply to the town only. Necessary permission from the CCI is being obtained.

49. Water quality of all the sources is suitable for drinking water after conventional treatment and disinfection, and there are no notable pollution sources in the vicinity. Random water quality tests conducted at sources indicated that the water quality is good and suitable for domestic water supply after conventional treatment. However, for Nayagaon, as the source (CCI pond) is originally a lime stone quarry, and located within the factory compound, has been receiving surface runoff from the premises and other open areas, further comprehensive water quality testing program is suggested to be conducted to confirm the water quality during the implementation. The fact that there is no aquatic life observed in the pond also makes it important that to confirm water quality in a comprehensive manner. Suggested monitoring program is given in Appendix 14B

50. Use of Chlorine as disinfectant. It is proposed to use chlorine at WTP to disinfect the water prior to supply to consumers. There is invariably a safety risk when chlorine is handled. Although facilities are not located close to habitations, safety precautions are necessary to ensure the safety of workers and citizens. To avoid any risk, chlorination facility will be provided with safety provisions, which are presented in the EMP (Table 11 to 13)

51. Sensitive project locations. Located mostly in dry and semi-arid region of western Madhya Pradesh bordering Rajasthan state, there are no notable sensitive environmental features in or near project towns. The source and surroundings were once agricultural lands (now falls under the dam submergence area). The raw water pipeline is aligned in the road right of way, and therefore no encroachment into forest is envisaged. Necessary precautions will be taken during the construction to avoid any accidental fall of wild animals in the pipeline trench: No trench will be kept open during the night, and the pipe laying work will be undertaken in small stretches, so that excavation, pipe laying and refilling is done on the same day. In unavoidable circumstances if the trenches are kept open at night, proper barricading will be done.

52. Similarly proposed works in the Rupaniya khal dam river bed (for intake and approach bridge) may damage the 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. Though works are very small scale, the contractor will be required to implement certain measures. These measures are included in the EMP to avoid, minimize these impacts (Table 10 to 12).:

53. Removal of trees and vegetation will be minimized by best pipe alignments and layout planning of facilities, however, this cannot be avoided fully. Appropriate measures in terms of

64 compensatory tree plantation is included in the EMP (Table 10 to 12).

54. 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 (Table 10 to 12).

55. 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 promote instability.

56. 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

57. 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, the contractor as part of the civil works will undertake road reinstatement. 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.

58. 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 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 excess soil shall be used for construction.

59. Other civil works in the subproject include construction of intake cum pump house and approach bridge/road in Rupaniyakal Dam for Nagri, raw water pumping stations in all towns, water treatment plants, water tanks (ground level / overhead), pumping stations at 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.

60. 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

61. 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 (Table 13) applicable to all three towns.

C. Operation and Maintenance Impacts

62. 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.

63. 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.

64. 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.

D. Project benefits

65. 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.

66. The citizens of Kukdeshwar, Nayagaon, SarwaniyaMaharaj and Nagri 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.

VI. PUBLIC CONSULTATION AND INFORMATION DISCLOSURE

A. Overview

67. 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.

68. 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 Kukdeshwar, Nayagaon, Nagri and Sarwaniya Maharaj, WRD and MPPCB, etc. 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

69. 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

70. Institutional consultations were conducted with the relevant Governmental Departments such as WRD, PHED, MPPCB, FD, etc. The subproject proposalsare formulated in consultation with Kukdeshwar, Nayagaon, Sarwaniya Maharaj and Nagri Nagar Parishads to suit the requirements of the respective towns.

71. 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. Formal town-level consultation meetings were conducted in March - June2016 in all the five subproject towns. Besides, several other meetings also conducted at ward-level with communities, and at market with street vendors and hawkers. The details of consultation are provided in Appendix 20.

72. The people are willing to extend their cooperation as the activities are proposed to improve the water supply service levels and the living standards. Stakeholder expressed their concern regarding water charges, affordability, disturbance and loss of business due to the work in market area (dust, road closure etc.). The project team explained the proposed mitigation measures to mitigate / minimize such issues. In Nayagaon people are aware of the existing source (Lime stone pond) and have no problem in continuing it as future source as well. Stakeholders observed that there have no health issues due to this source. Some people requested to give priority of local people in employment during construction work.

2. Consultation during construction

73. Prior to start of construction, ULBs 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.

74. 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

75. 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.

76. 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.

77. 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.

VII. GRIEVANCE REDRESS MECHANISM

A. Project Specific Grievance Redress Mechanism

78. 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.

79. 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.

80. 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.

81. 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.

82. Where to file a Complaint: Complainants will have the flexibility of conveying grievances/suggestions by dropping grievance redress/suggestion forms in complaints/suggestion boxes to be installed by project at respective Nagar Parishad Offices, PIU offices or by e-mail or by writing in a complaint register in the PIU offices or at construction site offices.

83. 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 21.

(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.

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

85. 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.

86. 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.

(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)1. 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.

87. 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 & rehabilitation2, 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.

88. 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.

1 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. 2 the Authority admits grievance only with reference to the LA and R&R issues under the new Act

VIII. ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN

A. Implementation Arrangements

89. 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. Program Implementation Units (PIUs) will support the PMU with flexibility to redeployment depending upon the implementation requirements.

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

91. 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.

92. 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.

93. 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.

94. 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

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

96. 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

72 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.

97. 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.

98. 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.

99. 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.

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

E. Monitoring and Reporting 105. 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. DBO will confirm through comprehensive water quality tests at Nayagaon water source, prior to start of work, that water quality is fit for domestic supply after conventional treatment.

106. 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.

107. 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 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 26). 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.

108. 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.

109. 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

94 with the project’s risks and impacts. Monitoring and supervising of social and environmental safeguards will be integrated into the project performance management system

F. EMP Implementation Cost 110. 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 1.84 million, which are to be covered by contractor costs.

IX. CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS

111. The process described in this document has assessed the environmental impacts of all elements of the Kukdeshwar, Nayagaon, Sarwaniya Maharaj and Nagri 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.

112. Environmental impacts as being due to the project design or location are not significant. The proposed water supply schemes include design of new water sources for two towns (Kukdeshwar and Nagri), and continuation of existing sources in the remaining 3 towns (Sarwaniya Maharaj and Nayagaon). Source analysis conducted on these sources confirmed that source is sustainable, and there are unlikely to have any adverse impacts on environment or existing uses and unlikely to create social conflicts. Yield tests are conducted on open wells at dowmstream of Morwan Dam for Sarwaniya Maharaj, and confirmed that water is adequate to meet the demand. Water will be sourced from existing dams (Gandhisagar Dam for Kukdeshwar and Rupaniyakhal Dam for Nagri), which have comparatively large storage, and necessary water allocation will be obtained from the Water Resources Department.

113. In Nayagaon, existing source – an abandoned lime stone quarry pond of a Cement Plant, which in use for many years, will be continued. Random water quality test conducted during the project preparation indicated that the water quality is suitable for domestic supply after conventional treatment. However, considering the nature and location of source within a cement factory compound receiving runoff also from the factory areas, a comprehensive water quality testing program is suggested in the IEE to confirm the water quality, and this will be conducted prior to the start of work.

114. There are no sensitive features like forests near the project sites, except a protected forest near the raw water pipeline location, however, no works will encroach into forest, as the forest is fenced along the road, and pipeline works will be confined to the road right of way. Therefore, no significant impacts envisaged. General precautions like refilling trench after the day’s work is suggested.

115. 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 water bodies (intake in dam), there is a risk of water contamination, river bed damage, etc. Appropriate measures are suggested.

116. 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.

117. 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.

118. 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.

119. 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.

120. 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.

121. The project will benefit the general public by contributing to the long-term improvement of water supply systems and community livability in Kukdeshwar, Nayagaon, Sarwaniya Maharaj and Nagri.

122. 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 Gandhi Sagar Dam, Rupaniyakhal Dam, and for Open wells in d/s of Morewan dam,, (ii) CCI permission for drawing water from CCI lime quarry pond, and(iii)Consent for Establishment (CFE) and Consent for Operation (CFO) for WTPs in all 5 towns from MPPCB. These permissions/approvals shall be obtained.

123. Comprehensive water quality tests will be conducted by for Nayagaon CCI source to confirm water quality is fit for supply. 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.

154

APPENDIX 9: 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;

155

(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.

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

156 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

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,

157

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.
