1 Foreword

Project Background

Guizhou is in the southwest China and often recognized as a country-side province because of its large rural population and under-developed economy. Poverty reduction thus has become a priority of the social economic development strategy in this province. The Guizhou Provincial Government has adopted ambitious policies to promote the province’s diverse natural and cultural heritage tourism resources for the economic benefit of the people of Guizhou. The Provincial Government also recognizes the need to balance the economic benefits from the tourism development with environmental protection and heritage conservation.

The proposed Guizhou Cultural and Natural Heritage Protection and Development Project is intended to exploit the briliant resource of cultural and natural heritages in Guizhou Province in a sustainable manner to promote the economic growth and create employment oppertunities, so as to improve the living conditions of the people in locality.

The EMP is developed on the basis of the characteristics of construction and local environment, and the laws and regulations, including the Environmental Protection Law of China, the Temporary Published Regulation of Environment Protection Regulation, the Management Regulation of Construction Items Environmental Protection, the Atmospheric Pollution Prevention and Control Law of China, the Water Pollution Prevention and Control Law of China, the Solid Waste Pollution Prevention and Control Law of China, the Noise Pollution Prevention and Control Law of China, and the principle of sustainable development.

This EMP is aimed at avoiding, mitigating or minimizing the adverse impacts on the environment during the stages of construction and operation. The principles followed in the preparation of the EMP are cleaner production, standard compliance and control of maximum load. In addition, the EMP has provided viable institutional arrangements for environmental monitoring, reporting, supervision, and management. To the best extent, the EMP is intended to reduce the impacts at source, so as to effectively control the pollution and achieve cleaner production.

On the basis of the environmental pollution characteristics, the EMP focuses on the mitigation measures for the impacts on the ecological environment, surface water environment, ambient air, acoustic environment and solid waste. Besides, the impacts are analyzed in three levels, from strategic level, to common component level and to specific component level. The factors taken into account in the process of EIA development are listed in the Table 1.1-1.

Environment Monitoring Plan

Objective

The EMP will be taken both in the construction and operation phases for the purpose of timely and comprehensive understanding of the change of environmental quality, the impact scope and trend.

Monitoring institution

The environmental monitoring in construction and operation phase should be carried out by the environmental monitoring stations of the construction sites which should be the certified national environmental monitoring units with sufficient equipment and technology to undertake the EMP. The management units of the sub-projects will contract local environmental monitoring stations for the routine environmental monitoring and the cost will be included in the operation and management budget.

Implementation of monitoring

According to the prediction results of environmental impact, choose the sensitive spots which are most likely impacted as the monitoring points. The monitoring contents are acoustic environment, ambient air environment and surface water. The monitoring and analysis methods conform to the Environmental Monitoring Technical Specifications promulgated by the State Environmental Protection Administration. The evaluation standards are in line with those in the EIA. The EMPs for construction and operation phases are listed in the Table 7-2.

Environmental Monitoring Plan

The EMPs have been developed for each type of construction work for both the construction and operation phases. The following metrix is the summary of the type of work contained in each project site, which can be used to implement the respective EMPs.

28 Monitoring Reporting System

Two levels of reporting will be carried out:

• Annual Reporting on progress in implementation against the measures and commitments set out in this EMP, by the Provincial PMO, reporting to PLG and the World Bank; • Detailed Quarterly reporting on the implementation of the individual policies and plans that are part of the EMP, by site managers, to the Municipal PMO and relevant government agencies (e.g. reporting on Health and Safety to the Safe Manufacture Supervision Bureau), and in turn to the Provincial PMO.

Provincial PMO reporting will include:

• A description of progress against the schedule of construction; • Analysis of the environmental monitoring data submitted by the local environmental monitoring units; • Analysis of any evidence for the strategic environmental impacts; • Progress in the implementation of training plans; • If there are public complaints, the substance of the complaints, and recommended solutions to achieve public satisfaction; • Description of any additional investments at new sites, and the environmental impacts assessment procedures that have been taken during preparation of the new investments; • Updates to the EMP and plans for its implementation over the following year.

Site Management / Municipal/county PMO reporting will describe progress in detail against the measures set out in the individual plans and policies of the site (e.g. health and safety policy, construction management plans, site waste management plans etc.), in addition to the monitoring parameters set out in Table 5-2. Reports will be submitted to the local EPB and the Provincial PMO.

Environmental Monitoring and Acceptance Report of Sub-projects

According to the Management of Environmental Protection in Construction Projects for Check & Accept Completed Project (the State Environmental Protection Administration, 2001), the sub-projects should prepare the environmental protection acceptance report within three months after completion. This report should focuss on identifying whether the project has met the environmental requirement in the operation phase. The report should be submitted to the Provincial Environmental Protection Bureau for review and approval. The implementation institution should make efforts to solve any problem immediately, if the project does not meet the relevant requirement.

29 Adjustability and Feedback System

Based on the examination and monitoring reports, the Guizhou Environmental Protection Bureau will decide whether further mitigation measures should be implemented or the effect of environmental management should be improved. The World Bank Project Office should consult with the Guizhou Environmental Protection Bureau and the World Bank to decide whether the EIA group should carry out further additional environmental assessment or public consultation, if the implementation of the EMP deviated from the plan or major environmental impact has been found during the examination and monitoring of the project. The amended (preliminary) EIA report and EMP should be submitted to Guizhou Environmental Protection Bureau for countercheck and approval, and then submitted to the World Bank finally. The revised EMP should be referred to the construction unit and implement institution and put into effect.

30 Budget for the Implementation of EMP

The cost of the EMP will be brought into the total investment and operation costs. The budget for the implementation of the EMP is listed in Table 9-1.
