3 Major Environmental Impacts and Corresponding Relief Measures

3.1 Analysis on Environmental Impacts of Construction Period and Corresponding Relief Measures 3.1.1 Analysis on Common Impacts and Corresponding Relief Measures The overall impact on environment is not big as the construction of this project is mainly in the farmland, involving no irrigation works, and a large part of investment is for supporting management measure. However, the project will commonly product impact on environment in the following eight aspects. 3.1.1.1 Air (1) Impact Analysis During the construction period, the impact on air quality will be intensified as the dust and exhaust gas produced by the construction are main pollution source of air. In the process of channel excavation and construction of farmland road and pipeline, pavement excavation, pipeline transportation and handling and field construction will produce dust. The analogy-based survey found that the dust is mainly raised from the roads of the construction site and influence areas within 50 meters on both sides of the roads. In addition, the sphere of influence of the dust raised by mixing concrete during the road hardening is about 50m around the mixing work shed. The size of dust is also related to the wind speed and climate, so the dust will generate its worst influence in gale days, especially in dry areas in northern China such as the project areas in Xinjiang, Gansu and Liaoning, where the sphere of influence may expand to 50-150m. Construction exhaust gas refers to the exhaust gas produced by fuel machinery such as wheel loaders, dump trucks, excavators and transport vehicles. Fuel machinery mainly produces pollutants of NOX, CO, hydrocarbons (HC) and etc. These emissions of these pollutants are small, so the impact on regional environment is insignificant but only have a certain impact on construction workers normally. (2) Prevention and Control Measures I Dust Prevention and Control Measures ① Most of the earth and stones produced by channel excavation shall be used to level the field as backfill or to build farmland ridge. The farmland roads shall be constructed near the existing ridges so that all the earth and stones can be recycled to the farmland and the earth and stones excavated shall be carefully covered in gale days. ② The powder construction materials such as cement, lime and sand shall be piled and stored under strict regulations and they shall be covered in the surface. Water spray can be applied when necessary. ③ The construction work shall be carried out dispersedly to reduce the sphere of influence of dust, and measures such as water spray shall be used to reduce dust pollution. ④ The concrete shall be mixed at stations under close management. II Prevention and Control Measures of Construction Exhaust Gas ① Construction machinery and vehicles with good operating conditions shall be selected. ② The fuel construction machinery and vehicles must be operated in normal conditions and meet gas emission standard. ③ Inspection and maintenance of construction vehicles shall be enhanced, and the vehicles running out of service life or with excessive exhaust shall be prohibited. Whenever possible, vehicles with less fuel

16 Environmental Management Plan for Integrated Modern Agriculture Development project

consumption and exhaust shall be used and quality fuel shall be selected to reduce the emission of hazardous gas of machinery and vehicles. 3.1.1.2 Water (1) Impact Analysis The waste water during construction mainly refers to the construction wastewater and sewage. Construction wastewater includes concrete curing wastewater and aggregates washing wastewater. The amount of the wastewater is small but it contains greasy dirt and silt, which will pollute soil, surface water and groundwater if not properly treated. Moreover, the impact on surface water will be enlarged in rainy days. The construction workers eat and lodge at nearby villages, so there is little discharge of sewage. (2) Prevention and Control Measures ① The concrete curing wastewater and aggregates washing wastewater at the construction site shall be collected together after flowing through sink, mixed and diluted, and into the temporary settling ponds. The size of settling ponds shall allow the wastewater to stay for over 12 hours. All the treated wastewater shall be reused for cleaning the construction site and construction materials as well as for concrete curing and aggregates washing. ② Temporary pit toilet shall be set up within the construction site and the feces can be removed regularly and used as fertilizer according to actual living conditions of the rural region. ③ Construction management shall be enhanced to strictly control the drip or leakage of construction machinery. Temporary drainage system and water protection measures shall be established for soil piling area to prevent the impact of soil erosion on the water environment. ④ All the construction units shall implement measures to treat construction wastewater and sewage to ensure that the wastewater will be treated appropriately. ⑤ Environmental protection education to construction workers shall be enhanced to improve their sense of environmental protection. Construction workers shall not litter or dump wastewater heedlessly. 3.1.1.3 Acoustic Environment (1) Impact Analysis The noise during the construction period mainly is mainly resulted from construction and materials transport. The noise at the construction site is mainly caused by construction machinery and equipment, materials handling and construction workers. As there are a variety of construction machinery and transport vehicles, but normally, the machinery operate at intervals, so the noise resulted from construction is intermittent and transient. The impact of noise on acoustic environment of project areas varies at different stages of the construction. The project areas are mainly located in or near the farmland and far from the village, so there is no other sensitive point of acoustic environment around and the impact can be minimized by strengthening management and taking corresponding prevention and control measures. (2) Prevention and Control Measures ① Advanced and reliable low-noise equipment shall be selected. ② The construction time shall be reasonably arranged. Construction shall be prohibited in lunch break or

17 Environmental Management Plan for Integrated Modern Agriculture Development project

at night. The nearby villagers shall be noticed before the operations with strong noise. ③ The construction schedule shall be reasonably arranged to avoid that multiple large-scale and strong-noise machinery operate simultaneously at the same construction field. The construction duration shall be shortened as much as possible to reduce the impact time. ④ The machinery and equipment that produce large noise must be equipped with foundation damping or damping bearings and bandaged with damping materials. ⑤ The noise produced by vehicle transport may have some impact on the acoustical environmentally sensitive points along the road, so the construction unit shall make reasonable arrangements for transportation, reducing the number of vehicles and traffic flow as much as possible and taking other measures such as setting speed limit and prohibiting honking. ⑥ The construction unit is suggested to make reasonable arrangements for construction workers, shorten the working time of the operators of strong-noise machinery and provide them earmuffs to reduce the impact of noise. ⑦ Regular check and maintenance shall be conducted for all the machinery and equipment to make sure they are in good conditions and thus reduce noise and extend service life. ⑧ Strict regulations shall be implemented for construction intensity, operators of machinery and vehicles, and routine practice. 3.1.1.4 Solid Waste (1) Impact Analysis The solid waste during the construction period is mainly resulted from the construction waste, spoil after backfilling for foundation excavation and domestic garbage of construction workers. Construction waste refers to all the substances produced or discarded during the construction and demolition of roadbed and channels, including abandoned gravel, brick and tile, waste concrete, scrap metal, packaging, etc. Domestic garbage mainly includes plastics and waste paper. The construction waste, if not timely treated, will not only impact on landscape but also produce dust in dry and gale days. The domestic garbage produced by construction workers, if not time treated, will breed mosquito, produce odor, spread diseases and generate negative impact on surrounding environment. (2) Prevention and Control Measures ① Construction waste shall be transported in enclosed vehicles and prohibited to be thrown away randomly. The construction waste shall be classified according to relevant provisions, recycled as much as possible, and removed and dissolved timely. ② Domestic garbage shall be collected in the trash can bags of the construction sites and transported to the solid waste landfill of the township or town nearby for treatment. ③ The spoil (slag) can be used as backfills to level the land or pave the roadbed. There will not be any dedicated spoil yard to reduce the occupation of land. ④ Toxic or hazardous substances shall not be burned at the construction site. The toxic or hazardous substances shall be treated according to relevant provisions. 3.1.1.5 Ecological Environment (1) Impact Analysis

18 Environmental Management Plan for Integrated Modern Agriculture Development project

The impact of construction on vegetation is mainly resulted form surface excavation, transportation and storage of construction materials and production equipment, which disturb surface, destruct vegetation and soil structure, reduce soil fertility, increase the degree of water and wind erosion of the project area, and have certain impact on the local soil erosion. The construction machinery and transport vehicles and workers tread on the plantations and reduce the vegetation coverage and biomass of the area. But the project is mainly in the farmland where vegetations are all planted crops, so the damage to vegetation is temporary and of small range and will terminate with the completion of the construction. The noise produced by construction machinery and human activities mainly impact on wild animals. The construction machinery such as transport vehicle, bulldozer, excavator, concrete mixer and vibrator can produce strong noise. Although they produce noise at intervals, the noise source is relatively concentrated and most of them are bare noise, so the radiation range and influence degree is relatively larger. According to the field survey, the project area is within the artificial ecosystem where there is no emergence of large wild animals but only some small birds and rats. The construction of small-scale machine farming roads occupy a small amount of arable land, the Project Management Office has made compensation in accordance with relevant policies, so the project will not generate significant impact on the local agricultural income. (2) Prevention and Control Measures ① The construction time shall be reasonably arranged to avoid rainy and flood seasons. If construction must be carried out in rainy or flood seasons, protective measures and drainage work shall be carried out effectively to ensure that the water can be drained smoothly and the working face will not be soaked. ② The earth and stone work shall be protected timely, the excavated earth and stones shall be transported immediately, the backfilling shall be tamped immediately without leaving loose earth and reduce the bare time of loose ground. Protection shall be carried out after the completion of one section to reduce the new soil erosion. ③ The layout of construction site shall be optimized to minimize the scope of construction activities and reduce the destruction to vegetation. The construction machinery and construction workers shall be on their respective position and channels planned without occupying land randomly. The construction machinery and construction materials such as earth and stones shall not be placed randomly to prevent the destruction of vegetation and exaggeration of soil erosion. ④ For purchased construction materials such as brick, stone, sand, cement and wood, they shall be transported to the construction site in batches to just meet demands so that they can occupy less land and destruct less vegetation. After the completion of the project, cleaning and greening work shall be carried out to restore the destructed vegetation as much as possible. ⑤ Construction shall be carried out in strict accordance with plan, minimizing destruction to the farmland vegetations in project area and trying to protect the surface vegetations around the project area. For temporary sites, the ecological environment shall be restored after the completion of construction by land reclamation and planting of vegetation. 3.1.1.6 Staff Health (1) Impact Analysis Certain amount of domestic wastewater, solid waste and other house refuses will be produced in

19 Environmental Management Plan for Integrated Modern Agriculture Development project

construction staff’s concentrated living quarter. If these wastes are not properly handled, the water quality shall be contaminated and the surrounding living area will be affected. Due to poor sanitary conditions, the water sources would be deteriorated and flies and mosquitoes will thrive, which will cause the spreading of infectious disease to construction staff’s health. Working or taking a rest in open field shall increase the probability of contacting with wild rat or its excrement as well as the possibility of insect bits and stings. Field personnel’s health would be harmed as they are more likely to get infected with the contagious diseases through the mediums of rats and insects. The disease epidemics would be triggered in a densely populated area during construction peak hour, therefore, the hygiene and epidemic prevention shall be emphasized. (2) Prevention and Control measures ① The construction unit shall be capable of providing appropriate first aid. First aid kit shall be equipped at construction premises; the emergency situation processing procedures in written format shall be applied for and needs in remote places so as to be able to transfer the patients to available medical institutions; ② The occupational health and safety training shall be conducted to all construction staff, and any basic operation rules at the jobsite and personal protection guideline and the way to prevent other staff from injuries must be introduced; ③ Correct signboards must be hung up at danger areas (such as switch board room and compressor room), facilities, materials and safety measures; ④ In case of the working personnel’s hands or arms vibration caused by using hand tools or electric tools, or the worker's whole body is vibrated due to sitting or standing on a vibratory surface, the selections to equipment and anti-vibration pad or vibration damper or the exposure time control shall be considered; ⑤ Warning signs shall be put to the energized electrical equipment and live wires; all wires, cables, hand electrical tools must be checked to confirm if there is any broken or exposed wire. Also, verify the max. Allowable working voltage of the hand tool according to the manufacturer’s guidance; all electrical equipment must be double-insulated or grounded when using in a humidor possibly humid environment ⑥ All workers who involve into the welding operation or just for assistance shall wear eye protection gears (such as welding goggles or mask); ⑦ Protection railing (the railing shall have middle bar or protection fence) shall be provided in any dangerous areas. In addition, the fall-prevention gears shall be prepared for construction personnel (including safety belt and range limitation lanyard); ⑧ Construction unit shall be responsible for creating report and recording the occupational accidents and diseases as well as the procedures and policies for dangerous conditions and accidents; ⑨ The health education shall be conducted to all construction personnel, such as initiating information communication tactics, enhancing face-to-face consulting services and solving any systemic issues that affect personal behaviors as well as encouraging people to take personal protection measures; Besides, the using of mosquito repellent, clothes and mosquito curtain shall be advocated to prevent insect bits and stings in case of disease transmission; 3.1.1.7 Social Influence (1) Impact Analysis The short-term influences to social environment along the line caused during the construction include:

20 Environmental Management Plan for Integrated Modern Agriculture Development project

① Occupation of field and road which increase the road load and cause inconvenience to villager’s travel in and out; ② Frequent passing of construction vehicles in densely populated areas such as village and school, etc. which cause potential traffic accidents. ③ Uncivilized behaviors of some construction workers result in unfavorable effects on local residents and crops. ④ Noise due to the construction disturbs the rest of local villagers. ⑤ Unfinished construction may bring effects to the safety of local villagers. The influences mentioned above could be avoided or completely eradicated by arranging reasonable construction plan and conducting civilized construction. Thus, construction unit shall formulate a complete construction plan and have strict requirements on construction workers as to reduce the social influences caused by the construction. （2）Prevention and Control Measures ① Formulate the traffic control plan in advance and publicize it then. Reasonably set the convergence between the major project and the intersecting roads along the pipeline construction line, and set the temporary round channel, so as to shorten the closed construction period of major intersecting roads to a greatest extent. ② Leave access roads at the junction between the units, peddlers´ markets, croplands, and residential areas on both sides of the pipeline construction line and other road nets, so as to divert pedestrians and vehicles to prevent traffic congestion, or inform relevant units to take other roads by other means in advance and set obvious signs of temporary round lines at major road intersection. ③ Set duty post at construction sections when constructing in villages and towns so as to divert the traffic and ensure the safety of pedestrians ④ Monitor the adobe houses near the construction site to prevent from accidents when conducting strong vibration operation near the village. ⑤ Arrange construction time reasonably and forbid construction in lunch-break time and nighttime. Limit the construction time at night and notice nearby villagers when conducting strong noise operation. ⑥Remind local villagers of the hanging signs of dangerous area, equipment and materials, etc 3.1.1.8 Cultural Relics No cultural relics and historic sites are in the construction area of the project according to relevant investigation, while if cultural relics and historic sites are discovered or a suspicious sign of them are found, construction unit should immediately protect the scene and report to local Administration of Cultural Heritage for treatment, as well as reconstruction after the treatment in accordance with Cultural Relics Protection Law of the People's Republic of China. If cultural relics and historic sites are discovered or a suspicious sign of them are found, see Appendix 1 for cultural heritage report procedure.. Cultural relics and historic sites are discovered or a suspicious sign of them are found, construction unit should: ① suspend construction at where they are found and immediately inform personnel of county-level project office;

21 Environmental Management Plan for Integrated Modern Agriculture Development project

② define the site or area; ③ avoid the loss and damage of movable objects in the site, as well as designate specialized responsible personnel and night watching people until county Administration Cultural Heritage takes over. 3.1.2 Impact Analysis of Typical Project and Mitigation Measures 3.1.2.1 Canal System Project Canal system project of this period consists of excavation of lateral canal, irrigation ditch, drainage ditch and. (1) Impact Analysis The project is focused on excavation, desilting and weeding on present ditch foundation. Earthworks and sludge is recycled which has little influence on surrounding environment. Dust caused by earthwork excavation will pollute the air of construction area and surrounding area. Excavation project happens to be at rainy season which leads to certain soil erosion. The Construction sites are very disperses, construction scale is small and construction time is short for the operation is divided according to section and area manually for the project. Therefore, the influence is small. (2) Prevention and Control Measures ① Channel layout design should be reasonable that channel should be designed according to field conditions. Channel and field is coexisted, simple and practical. Field should be occupied as less as possible as to guarantee field irrigation. ② All the spoil will be used for land leveling and refilling or near sub-grade bedding. ③ Earthwork engineering should be protected in time which means excavation and transportation should be done simultaneously, as well as filling and ramming. There should be no loosen soil left and exposure time of loosen ground should be decreased. New soil erosion should be mitigated by protecting one section of construction soil after one section of construction is done. ④ Watering the mound on the surface to avoid dust if the weather is nice for several days or it is windy during construction. 3.1.2.2 Water-saving Irrigation Project The project consists of pipeline construction of anti-seepage canal, low-voltage pipeline, sprinkling irrigation, drip irrigation and mobile ground hose. (1) Impact Analysis Small amount of field will temporarily be occupied for construction activities and area of water-saving irrigation project which has a short-term influence on the ground surface and land resource of occupied area, while has few influence on ecological environment for construction time is short and quantity is small, as well as occupied area. Adverse influence on ecological environment will be eliminated by reclamation and re-vegetation of occupied area after the construction. Selection of construction site and construction schedule should be reasonable and construction scope should be defined, as well as make compensation for the field damage caused by construction truck and machine, in addition to timely reclamation of field, as to avoid and mitigate adverse influence on ecological environment during construction. (2) Prevention and Control Measures

22 Environmental Management Plan for Integrated Modern Agriculture Development project

① Layout of construction site should be optimized and construction scope should be decreased, as well as damage to vegetation; ② Outsourced construction material, such as brick, stone, sand, cement and pipe, should be used on arrival. The less the field is occupied and the vegetation is damaged, the better for the environment. Clean construction site after completion and afforest the site for re-vegetation. ③ Time for occupying field should be shortened and construction time of earthwork should be controlled to maintain the stability of cut-and-filled slope, as well as to mitigate the influence on the surrounding environment on the condition of construction quality. ④ Construction in the field should be at slack farming season after autumn harvest and winter sowing to avoid field occupying for field construction. It is requested to formulate plan and adjust crops rotation to avoid damage to green crops if construction can not be completed during that period. Construction area should be enough to mitigate the damage to green crops if crops rotation can not be adjusted. 3.1.2.3 Canal Structure Project The project consists of construction of bridge, culvert, sluice gate, aqueduct, drop water, water outlet, silting basin and water measuring facility. (1) Impact Analysis Concrete will be used for construction of canal structures. Transportation of concrete will probably affect air of surrounding environment. Recycling of wastewater of concrete curing after treatment has a small influence on surface water. (2) Prevention and Control Measures ① Environmental factors should be taken into consideration in terms of site selection and design. Prefabricated parts should be adopted in terms of bridge and culvert construction to mitigate the influence on river and downstream water body during construction. ② Construction materials, such as cement and other fine articles subject to flying, should be stored closely or with coverage measures and they should be prevented from scattering and flying during transportation. Measures, such as watering in the warehouse, should be carried out to decrease flying dust during unloading. ③ Wastewater for concrete curing and sand washing in construction site should be collected through launder for mix and dilution. The wastewater enters temporary sedimentation basin after pH of wastewater is lowered. The size of sedimentation basin should guarantee that the wastewater will stay over 12h. All the wastewater after treatment will be recycled for in-site clean, construction material clean, concrete curing and sand rewashing. ④ All the spoil will be used for land leveling and refilling or sub-grade bedding nearby. ⑤ Households whose houses are occupied will get compensation according to field adjustment. Field for compensation is either collective field of village or reallocated field of project village as to guarantee the standard of field area and quality is not lower than that of adjustment before. ⑥ Suspense signs about dangerous area, device and material should be set up to warn local people. 3.1.2.4 Farmland Road Project The project consists of hardening tractor road and sandstone tractor road.

23 Environmental Management Plan for Integrated Modern Agriculture Development project

(1) Impact Analysis Farmland road project is focused on excavation, refilling and sand gravel laying. It has an influence on environment, such as flying dust and noise and a small amount of field vegetation will be damaged by newly-added occupied field, in addition to soil erosion in rainy season. (2) Prevention and Control Measures ① Environmental factors should be taken into consideration in terms of site selection and design. Construction on original tractor road is preferred to decrease the area of newly-added occupied field. ② Temporary piling of spoil should be as less as possible and timely transferring is preferred. It is preferred to water operation surface in sunny days to decrease dust and 4~5 times in each sunny day in construction site. Water amount and times should be increased in windy days. Measures like wind prevention and sheltering should be taken for transportation and temporary storage of bulk material as to decrease amount of flying dust. Compaction and covering measures should be taken for trucks that transfer material and it is preferred not to be overloaded as to decrease scattering and dust flying. Removal operation and earthwork project should be halted if the wind level is over four. ③ Layout of construction site should be reasonable and simultaneous operation of large amount of power machine in the same site should be avoided so that local sound level will not be too high. It is preferred to select low-noise equipment and shut down non-used equipment immediately in accordance with Emission Standard of Noise from Construction Site (GB 12523-2011) (daytime 70dB and nighttime 55dB). ④ Enclosure should be set up on construction site near residence area for sound proof and noise emission decreasing, as well as decreasing of noise pollution outside construction site. Nighttime operation near residence area is not allowed and low-noise operation is preferred in noon-break time for residents. ⑤ Dropping and leakage should be avoided in the transportation, unloading and construction of material. Waste material should be transferred timely and operation site should be cleaned after construction is completed to prevent pollution caused by rain washing. ⑥ Construction time should be arranged reasonably to avoid rainy season and flood season, if not, construction protection and drainage work should be prepared in rainy season to ensure smooth drainage in construction period and to avoid that operation surface is soaked by accumulated water. ⑦ Earthwork engineering should be protected in time which means excavation and transportation should be done simultaneously, as well as filling and ramming. There should be no loosen soil left and exposure time of loosen ground should be decreased. New soil erosion should be mitigated by protecting one section of construction soil after one section of construction is done. Measures, such as excavation, refilling and rolling, as well as bank and slope protection, should be operated simultaneously in levee construction ⑧ Layout of construction site should be optimized and construction scope should be decreased, as well as damage to vegetation. Operation of machine and operator should be in accordance with planned planimetric position and passageway of construction. Occupying field indiscriminate is not allowed and construction machine, stone and other material is not allowed to be left randomly. Vegetation damage should be prevented to mitigate soil erosion. ⑨ Outsourced construction material, such as brick, stone, sand, cement and pipe, should be used on arrival. The less the field is occupied and the vegetation is damaged, the better for the environment. Clean construction site after completion and afforest the site for re-vegetation. ⑩ Damage to field vegetation in project area should be mitigated and vegetation near construction area should be protected in strictly accordance with design construction. Ecology recovery should be

immediately operated for reclamation and replanting of crop, as well as vegetation after construction is completed in temporary site. ⑪ Households whose houses are occupied will get compensation according to field adjustment. Field for compensation is either collective field of village or reallocated field of project village as to guarantee the standard of field area and quality is not lower than that of adjustment before. 3.1.2.5 Restoration of electromechanical irrigation and dragging station and pumping well (1) Impact analysis As the electromechanical irrigation and dragging stations are mostly located close to rivers and ponds, few amount of slurry and some oily wastewater produced during construction may cause some impacts to local surface water environment. No pumping well erection operation would be conducted in this project, only the repair and maintenance works to the existing pumping wells shall be implemented. The major engineering works include pumping well dredging, remains fishing in well, pumping well water pipe flashing, pipe patching and changing. The major affects and impacts include the farmland occupation by tower erection and drilling equipment as well as slurry pond, and the mechanical noise produced during well digging and hole drilling. The construction period for this project is short. The affect of construction noise to ambient environment is less; the temporarily occupied area shall be recovered after the construction work is finished. The slurry pond shall be covered with soil after its natural drying process and the areas recovered from temporarily occupation shall be tillable. (2) Prevention and Control measures ① Advanced low-noise equipment shall be selected during equipment selection; ② Any machinery or equipment that produces loud noise shall be base-damped or set with shock mount and wrapped with damping materials; ③ The construction period shall be properly arranged on avoid any simultaneously operations of multiple large-scale noise-producing machineries at same jobsite. The operation progress must be improved in order to shorten the noise-affect time; ④ Appropriate organization of construction personnel is recommended to construction unit for the purpose of shorting the operating hours of high-noise equipment operator. The earmuff shall be provided to the operator working with high-noise equipment for sake of their health; ⑤ The construction works must be conducted strictly in compliance with the designs, any destruction to vegetations within the project area shall be minimized with all efforts, nonetheless, the surface vegetation at the perimeter of construction area must be protected. The ecological restoration including land reclamation and vegetation replanting shall be implemented immediately when the construction is completed; ⑥ Settling pond shall be built in the construction field for industrial wastewater deposition. The deposited water can be reused to the field or for infield sprinkling instead of direct draining; ⑦ Equipment or vehicle maintenance station or cleaning depot shall not be provided at the construction site. The maintenance works shall be conducted at the professional maintenance station so as to avoid any oil polluted water produced in the field; ⑧ Prior to using the pumping well equipment, any potential oil leakage and water leakage must be checked, when the equipment comes across any oil leaking situation, the hole drilling operation shall be conducted in a distance away from the leaking point, and the monitoring actions shall be taken before using; ⑨ Under the pre-requisite of ensuring the construction quality, the construction unit shall shorten the time for temporary area occupation and manage the earthwork hours to maintain a stable side slope filling and reduce the affects caused by construction equipment and engineering vehicles to the perimeter outside the construction area; 3.1.2.6 Rural power line and supporting facility construction

25 Environmental Management Plan for Integrated Modern Agriculture Development project

The construction scope mainly includes the installation of transformer, construction of transformer room, the erection of rural power transmission line and installation works. (1) Impact analysis As a small amount of land would be occupied for rural power line and supporting facility construction, the land surface and the land resources within the occupation area would be affected in a short period of time. Fortunately, due to the less engineering quantity, small occupied area and short construction period, thereby the impact to the ecological environment is inconsiderable; especially, the land reclamation and vegetation recovery shall be conducted after the construction is completed, therefore, any adverse situations to the ecological environment shall be totally eliminated. Meanwhile, in order to avoid and mitigate the eco-environmental impact due to the engineering construction, the construction area shall be selected advisably and the operation areas must be defined reasonably. Moreover, the land reclamation works must be conducted promptly when construction works are completed. (2) Prevention and Control measures ① Under appropriate circumstances, the current existing power transmission and distribution facilities, traffic corridors and roads can be adopted for onsite power transmission and distribution; the roads, power transmission lines, power transmission towers and transformers can also be used to prevent any impacts on key environment; ② Instead of land cleaning, the power transmission lines can be erected on the existing vegetation surface; ③ Do not conduct erection works during breeding season and sensitive seasons or sensitive time during day; ④ Utilize the layout of construction site properly, reduce the construction activity range and mitigate the sabotages to the plantations during construction implementation; ⑤ Any outsourced construction materials, such as brick, stone, sand, cement and pipe shall be delivered on demand in order not to occupy any areas nor ruin any vegetations. After the construction works are completed, the jobsite must be cleaned and afforested, and the ruined vegetation area shall be maximally recovered; ⑥ Under the pre-requisite of ensuring the construction quality, the construction unit shall shorten the time for temporary area occupation and manage the earthwork hours to maintain a stable side slope filling and reduce the impacts on the perimeter outside the construction area; ⑦ Warning signs shall be put to the energized electrical equipment and live wires; all wires, cables, hand electrical tools must be checked to confirm if there is any broken or exposed wires. Also, verify the max. Allowable working voltage of the hand tool according to the manufacturer’s guidance; all electrical equipment must be double-insulated or grounded when using in a humidor possibly humid environment; ⑧ Protection railing (the railing shall have middle bar or protection fence) shall be provided in any dangerous areas. In addition, the fall-prevention gears shall be prepared for construction personnel (including safety belt and range limitation lanyard); 3.1.2.7 Other impacts during construction period (1) Impact analysis The transportation of the concrete used for organic fertilizer treatment pond may cause impacts to ambient air. The impact of reusing the treated concrete curing wastewater tot eh surface water is inconsiderable. The agro-forestry construction has certain positive effect to local eco-environment, but without proper tree variety selection, such as insect damage to single tree species, the negative affect may also occur. (2) Prevention and Control measures ① Cement and other fine particle discrete materials shall be stored in silos or totally covered. It shall be prevented from scattering, dust rising during transportation, and shall be damped during discharging and dust rising eliminated during warehousing; ② Concrete curing wastewater and sand rinsing wastewater at jobsite shall be collected through gutter channel for mixing and dilution. When the wastewater’s pH value is lowered, it shall be treated in temporary sedimentation tank whose capacity is capable of retaining the wastewater of over 12 hours. The

26 Environmental Management Plan for Integrated Modern Agriculture Development project treated wastewater shall all be recycled for jobsite cleaning, construction material washing and rinsing, and sandstone re-flashing, etc. ③ Use local indigenous tree species and assure the tree varieties. Any exotic tree specie with trait of aggressiveness shall be strictly prohibited; 3.2 Environmental Impact Analysis and Mitigation Measures in Operation Period 3.2.1 Pesticide Environmental Impact Analysis and Mitigation Measures (1) Impact analysis For the sake of plant disease control, pest control, weeds and rodent control, a certain volume of pesticides shall be applied. Generally, a portion of pesticide particles will float in air during pesticide spraying, some of them can be decomposed by photodecomposition, and some will fall into soil. However, most of pesticide we use will fall into soil and merge into environment to causes harm to aquatic life, terrestrial organism, human and livestock and break the eco-balance. Not only that, even some of pesticide ingredients can accumulate in organism and produce a exceeding pesticide residual through bio-concentration and biomagnifications; The general insect prevention and control plan, developed in this program, is extensively applied with general insect prevention and control techniques in combing with disease-resistant cultivar and efficient, low toxic and low-persistent pesticide and bio-pesticide to replace the former used highly toxic pesticide, thereby to effectively ameliorate the farmland eco-environment in the project area. The affect of pesticide to environment would be inconsiderable after applied the pesticide contamination mitigation actions and management measures. (2) Prevention and Control measures ① The disease-and-pest-resistant crops shall be selected. The seeds must be quarantine inspected upon introduction in order to prevent the spreading of weed and pest disease. Strengthen the plant’s pest-resistant ability through cultivation measures. Physical means (such as diseased-plant eradication, artificial capturing and insect-trapping with light) and biological means shall be advised as much as possible for the purposes of less pesticide deploying or no pesticide deploying; ② Cultivated land shall be deeply tilled in summer and winter respectively before seed sowing in cooperating with applying the fully matured organic fertilizer. The field management shall be strengthened after sowing so as to create environmental conditions suitable for crop growing without invasion of insect disease; ③ Introduce the mineral medicament and biological agent and low-toxic medicament to farmers. Use moderate toxic medicament if aforesaid drugs are invalid. The high-toxic and high-persistent or carcinogenic pesticide are strictly prohibited; ④ The pesticide concentration, volume, type, applying frequency and method must be strictly controlled; and in accordance with the safety interval of each kind of pesticide and the principle of early treatment, deploy the pesticide during the growing period of crops in advance and at juvenile phase of pests and primary infection period; ⑤ The pesticide shall be applied according to pesticide application procedure. The farmer shall be trained accordingly; ⑥ The pesticide shall be used scientifically on the basis of pest forecasting. The forecasting to pest infection shall be conducted in various ways, such as climate, number of natural enemy and types, insect damage technology and speed, etc. The only scientific way to determine if the chemical medicament is applicable is to develop accurate forecasting system on the basis of the overall consideration to the feasibility of the difficulties and speed of artificial control, natural enemy control and physical control. When pest damage occurs, do not use other control the damage by using chemical synthetic pesticides if any other pollution-free means are available or applying the pesticides during peak time so as to reduce the pesticide using volume; ⑦ When applying the pesticides is a necessity, the related rules for using pesticide must be complied and the pesticide spraying shall be conducted on a fine and warm day in case of the enviro9mental pollution by pesticides diffusion. The high-effective, low toxic and low residual pesticide is preferable; hence the personal safety can be ensured;

27 Environmental Management Plan for Integrated Modern Agriculture Development project

⑧The project uses the physical and biological control measures, in order to reduce the use of pesticides on the unit area. 3.2.2 Environmental Impact Analysis and Measures Chemical Fertilizer (1) Impact analysis After project implementation, regardless of well irrigated area or surface water irrigated area, the recharging amount of irrigation water to groundwater is distinctively reduced under the condition of water-saving irrigation due to the significant decreasing of irrigation quota in field. In comparison with nitrate pollution index before project implementation, the nitrate pollution index in most of subproject areas are apparently reduced under the conditions of water-saving irrigation and balance fertilization after the project is implemented. Therefore, due to project implementation, the probability of ground water pollution caused by fertilization and irrigation is diminished. (2) Prevention and Control measures ① Optimize the fertilization system, select appropriate fertilization time and conduct soil testing and formulated fertilization. Adopt soil testing and formulated balance fertilization technology to test the soil and grasp the soil fertility conditions. Moreover, on the basis of the features of different crops and rules of requirement of fertilization, conduct ratio balances between organic fertilizer and chemical fertilizer, nitrogenous fertilizer and phosphatic fertilizer, potash fertilizer and trace element fertility for sake of balanced fertilization; ② The applications of organic fertilizer and straw returning shall be recommended. The application of livestock manure and food residual after fermentation can reduce the non-point source pollutant created by livestock, but also can reduce the application amount of chemical fertilizer; ③ Improve fertilization method and be aware of the seasonality for fertilization; promote the soil testing and fertilization technology within irrigated area and instruct farmer to fertilize the crops according to their growth rules and fertilizer requirement; control the application amount of chemical fertilizer, optimize the fertilization technology and improve the chemical fertilizer’s effective components utilization; ④ Advance criteria for domestic chemical fertilizer application shall be adopted and the application rate of agricultural chemical fertilizer of ≤280 (kg/hectare, pure discount) is recommended; ⑤ The soil quality in the project area shall be monitored (refer to Monitoring Plan for details), when any problems are detected, the causes shall be identified immediately and appropriate actions must be taken accordingly; 3.2.3 Environmental Impact Analysis and Measures on Solid Waste (1) Impact analysis The residual of agricultural plastic film, which will leave in soil, shall affect the decomposition of soil humus and the air and water permeability of soil resulting in a soil structure damage, low nutrient element content and low water detention and fertilizer conservation. The higher the residual capacity remains, the severer destructive affect will be. Due to the affects of film residual and the ruin to physicochemical characters of soil, the difficulties of crop’s seed germination would be inevitable, the root growth would be hindered and the crop’s growth and development would be inhibited. Meanwhile, the film residual isolation will affect the normal nutrient absorption of crops and result in a poor fertilizer use efficiency and decline of production. (2) Prevention and Control measures ① The safe, applicable and economic oriented plastic film shall be selected; ② The film mulching technique shall be optimized, the side film cultivation technology and technology of due time film removal shall be promoted so as to shorten the continuous mulching year limit; ③ The promotion for using degradable agricultural plastic film shall be conducted; ④ The efforts on agricultural plastic film recycling works shall be strengthened to continuously improve the recycling technique; more recycling machinery shall be put in to increase the recovery rates of plastic film.
