EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Introduction 1. The Government of India has given Ganga the status of a “National River” and in exercise of the powers conferred by sub-sections (1) and (3) of Section 3 of the Environment (Protection) Act, 1986, the Central Government constituted the National Ganga River Basin Authority (NGRBA) on 20th February 2009, as a planning, financing, monitoring and coordinating authority for strengthening the collective efforts of the Central and State Governments for effective abatement of pollution and conservation of the Ganga river by adopting a river basin approach with comprehensive planning and management. In regards to this initiative, under pollution abatement programme NGRBA proposes “Interception, Diversion &Sewerage System Work in Phusro in the state of Jharkahnd, under National Mission for Clean Ganga (NMCG), following the principles of ESMF of NGRBA. 2. Further, in the year 2014 the Government of India has launched “Namami Gange” programme, which covers the previously sanctioned ongoing projects as well as the projects in new components with multi sector mandate to address both water quality and water quantity issues. The programme aims at integrating previous & currently ongoing initiatives by enhancing efficiency, extracting synergies and supplementing them with more comprehensive & better coordinated interventions. Namami Gange Programme has been segregated into three different components: 3. Component 1: Institutional Development: This component will support to the national, state and municipal governments to strengthen implementation and financing arrangements and develop a framework to improve Ganga river basin management. 4. Component 2: Infrastructure Development: Pertains to the initiatives to be undertaken under National Ganga Plan in 5 major sectors i.e. Infrastructure Development (Sewage Treatment, River Front Development, and Industrial Wastewater Treatment & Solid Waste Management), Ecological Sustainability and Research & Development and Communication & Public Outreach. 5. Component 3: Program communication and management: NMCG conducts a range of vibrant communication activities ranging from ground-level community engagement exercises, social and traditional media outreach, public debates and lectures, to a flagship mass media campaign.

Project Description 6. Phusro city falls in Bermo block under Bokaro district. Phusro city is a notified area comes under Phusro Nagar Parishad. The city is geographically located on latitude 23°45'43.70"N & 86° 0'7.45"Longitude the State of Jharkhand. The city is located at 35 kilometer from district town of Bokaro (i.e. Steel City Bokaro). Geographically, it lies along the banks of Damodar River which is a tributary of the holy river Ganga. As per 2011 Census of India, Phusro Urban Agglomeration had a total population of 186,139, of which males were 97,665 and females 88,874. Phusro Urban Agglomeration is composed of Phusro (Nagar Parishad), Bermo (Census Town), Jaridih Bazar (CT),

Bokaro (CT) and Kurpania (CT). Phusro Nagar Parishad (Municipal Council) has total 28 wards and total population is 89178 (male 46605 and female 42573). 7. Bokaro district is bounded on the east by Dhanbad district and some portion of West Bengal State, on the west by Ramgarh district, on the south by Purulia district of West Bengal and on the north by parts of Giridih, Hazaribag and Dhanbad districts. 8. River Damodar forms the major drainage of the city and it flows from West to East along the city. Bokaro district, a part of the Chota Nagpur Plateau, has undulating surface with the altitude varying between 200 and 282 m. 9. As per the Environmental and Social Management Framework (NGRBA 2011 revised in 2020), the implementation of such river pollution mitigation projects under the NGRBP is anticipated to encounter a variety of environmental and social issues/problems. Therefore the study of Environment and Social Sector is required for analyzing the impacts of proposed project and suggesting their mitigation & management plans to handle any negative impacts. In this regard the Environmental and Social Due Diligence Report (ESDDR) has been prepared. 10. This ESDDR will provide a clear understanding of the prevailing and expected environmental and social impacts as well as their probable causes, which are to be considered while preparing and implementing the proposed interventions for strengthening the existing sewerage infrastructure of Phusro City.

Existing Scenario of Sewerage Facilities 11. Presently, there is no existing sewerage system/ network in the Phusro town. The type of drain in the town area Kuctha drain & Pucca Drain (approx.20km & 40 km) only. Most of the houses have adopted the practice of onsite disposal by constructing septic tank with effluent discharge into soak-pits or open surface drains. Absence of a proper wastewater collection and treatment system has resulted in disposal of untreated wastewater into the storm water drains (which are mostly open at present) and ultimately discharging to the river / water bodies. The overall level of service of the waste water disposal system in Phusro town is very poor, which is one of the major causes of river and ground water pollution. The pockets which were mining areas under CCL which are in the low lying areas have become waste water collection system for that particular area. 12. List of outfall nallahs and their discharges (2 year return period) is given below, the Discharge observation of Drain to be tapped for treatment is presented in annexure 5. These major drains are in proposal to tap and further convey to STP. 1. Bodhi Nallah : 58.91 Cum/Sec 2. Ghutiya Tand Basti Nala: 6.59 Cum/Sec 3. Jhoria Nallah : 76.41 Cum/Sec 4.

13. Sources of water supply in Phusro city is fulfilled by Surface and ground water. Presently Phusro Nagar Parishad is providing water supply of 1.2 MLD to 5 wards i.e. 14, 24, 25, 26 & 27 and the source of water is Damodhar River. The water supply to remaining wards is taken care by CCL (4.8 MLD to 23 Wards). To improve the present water supply system in ULB, Public Health & Engineering Department in 2014-15 prepared a DPR for 24X7 water supply. The Scheme constitutes 29 MLD Treatment Plant, 3 No’s Service Reservoirs and water supply pipeline network of 135 Kms. Presently the execution of work is under progress and expected to be completed by December.

Necessity of this project 14. Phusro city is situated at bank of Damodar River. Due to non-availability of sewerage system in Phusro city, the waste water is being discharged into open drains which ultimately discharge into river Damodar, and resulting the increase in pollution level of the holy river, which is main concern of the Government and N.G.T. Due to tremendous population growth and increased areas of habitation, and null sewerage facility, the untreated sewerage disposal is a critical problem. Presently the waste water from septic tanks are discharged directly into the Kachha drains creating unhygienic environment. These drains/ Nala are joining into the River Damodar. Addition to this, day by day increasing population causes more pollution entering into the river. Hence to prevent these drains discharging waste water directly without any treatment and providing a systematic Sewerage Network in the city in Damodar River, the major Drain tapping and providing treatment facility to clean the sewerage water is considered to clean the River Damodar. Phusro city unlike other Indian cities does not have a centralized sewer system for collection, transportation, treatment and disposal of domestic and institutional wastewater. In order to reduce pollution load in River Damodar, the immediate removal of sewage from its sources of generation followed by treatment, reuse or dispersal into the environment in an eco- friendly manner is necessary to protect public health and environment.

Proposed Project Activities 15. Under Namami Gange program, the objective is to Intercept and Divert major Nala of the city and convey this to the Treatment Plant before entering of waste Water into the River Damodar , Tributary of River Ganga. Therefore to prevent untreated waste water of drains of the city from joining the river by intercepting and divert them through sewers to sewage treatment plants for treatment and allow only treated sewage to be discharged into river Damodar. Design of the sewage collection system for Phusro is purely by gravity flow. The sewage collection system is designed based on contributing population and proportionate sewage generated in the laterals. The populations per metre length of lateral are considered based on the proportionate ward contribution on the population projection. The total length of Trunk sewers, main, sub main, laterals is calculated individually against individual diameters. Sewage collected from the different households through laterals and main sewers will be discharged into the nearest trunk sewer and

the same is transported to collecting well of STP, from which the sewage is conveyed for treatment and finally disposed to River Damodar. 16. In the town, there are four (4) drains discharging into river Damodar. Drain 1 namely, Bodhi Nala is carrying flows from Zone I. Drain 2 is minor Nala and not having any specific name and meeting Damodar in Giti ya Tar bati. Drain 3 namely, Jhoria Nala. It is carrying discharges from Zone III and IV. Drain IV namely Ghotiya nala carries discharge from Zone V. 17. Summary of Proposed work are presented below:

ZONAL SEWAGE FLOWS 19. The sewage flow likely to be generated at Phusro has been calculated based on the proposed water supply rate for the town  Water supply per capita assumed in the design = 135 / lpcd  Sewage generation at 80% of the above = 108 / lpcd  Add infiltration = 3570 lits/km/day  Floating Population = 10% of pop. @45 lpcd Based on the rate of sewage worked out as above the sewage flow anticipated from the populations anticipated in different years of the design period is indicated below:

From the above table for a design period of 15 Years the total capacity of STP recommended is 15.00 MLD. 20. STP Technology: As per DPR, Analysis of suitable technology in terms of Land Availability, Performance, Total cost, O&M etc., has been taken into the consideration along with data pertaining to Phusro Nagar Parishad. It has been perceived that Sequential Batch Reactor (SBR) is more suitable when compared to other technologies; it requires lesser area for construction of STP. Hence SBR technology is the best option for 4.00 MLD and 10.00 MLD capacities for treatment of the sewage in Phusro Nagar Parishad. 21. In addition to the STP Plant, Hydro power generation plant of 5 KW capacities is also proposed in Zone 1 near to 4 MLD STP. Since flow of Influent is perceived from good height therefore before entering into the Sewerage Equalization / collection tank, raw waste water will be conveyed to Hydropower unit to generate the Sustainable Power. The Land for Hydro Power unit is also added in the total area of the STP. 22. In this way, the objective to prevent untreated wastewater of drains falling into River Damodar from Phusro city will be achieved and the effluent standard norms as set by NGT shall be met accordingly. 23. Disposal of Treated Effluent: The treated effluent of STP will be used preferably for irrigation purposes and during the rainy season it will be discharged into the river Damodar. Concessionaire shall also explore the other alternative possibilities of using treated water in various purposes like Gardening purpose (For example, parks, playgrounds, school yards, residential landscape, etc.), Toilet & Urinal Flushing in public places, gated communities’ commercial establishments and other educational institutions reclaimed water can be used in construction activities including foundation compaction, dust control, water jetting for consolidation of backfill around pipelines and mixing concrete. Treated water can be used for firefighting and protection. It can be used for fire protection in hydrants or in sprinkler systems in commercial or industrial facilities, residential buildings and hotels. The treated water can be reused in Industries where the requirement of water is more than the available water for

production. As per latest NGT standard, BOD of treated water shall be less than 10 mg/l, the provision of using treated water in nearby agricultural field may be recommended. 24. Sludge Management: The sludge as collected from SBR basins is collected into sludge sump and conveyed to centrifuge unit for dewatering the same. The necessary centrifuge feed pumps & Centrifuges will be provided. Concessionaire shall be responsible to get the Bio chemical quality check of dried sludge before handling to farmer or using as soil conditioner in nearby area. Preferably the dried sludge may be used as manure, soil conditioner, fertilizer in the agricultural field, Landscape of STP, JUIDCO office, ULB offices etc. Suitable site should also be identified by the Concessionaire within the project premises for the safe storage of sludge. The surplus amount of sludge shall be managed and processed at Phusro ULB’s Solid Waste Management Site. As per discussion with EO (ULB Phusro- dealing with SWM), it has been conveyed that ULB Phusro is in process to provide a Solid Waste Management Facility in Phusro Municipal Corporation. In this respect, Collection, transportation and processing of waste shall be done by ULB’s authorized vendor. Presently, ULB’s Solid Waste Management site is under preparation at Makoli village, around 10 acre land has been earmarked for SWM facility. Therefore, Sludge & garbage emanated from the STPs will be integrated & managed with SWM unit of Phusro ULB. The necessary safeguard measures associated with the storage and disposal of sludge are provided in the ESMAP (Annexure-6 ESAMP) of this report.

29. Physiography & Soil: Bokaro District is part of Chotanagpur Platue. Major physiography unit of the region is hilly and undulating. Bokaro District’s soil is broadly grouped into granite geneiss of Archean age, sand stone and shales of Gondwana Age & Alluvial soil. Therefore texture wise soil area of generally stony gravelly, sandy soil, Loamy Soil, Clayey Soil. The predominant soil of the project area is sandy and loamy. 30. Seismicity: As per seismic hazard map of State of Jharkhand, Phusro, Bokaro District falls in Moderate damage risk seismic zone III and corresponds to MSK intensity VII. 31. Climate: Predominant climate of the region is Humid, sub-tropical. Like other Northern alluvial region of India, the climate of the city is basically characterized by hot summers, cold winters and a general dry weather except monsoon season. Average Annual Rainfall of the region is 1198 mm. The humidity of the region is generally Normal except in Monsoon season. Mean annual Humidity is nearby 60%. Predominant wind direction is from south east direction. The direction and speed is generally variable during monsoon season. South west monsoon dominate during monsoon season and responsible for rainfall. 32. Air: To have an idea of ambient air quality near to project region, Ambient Air Quality data being recorded at monitoring station Jorapokhar, Dhanbad by State Pollution Control Board for the one week has been analysed. The concentration of SO2 & NO2 is within the CPCB standard. However PM10 has been recorded slightly above the permissible limit at few days only. Similarly onsite monitoring record is presented in chapter 5 of this report. 33. Water: Damodar River is major Perennial River of the region. The river enters the city on its western boundary and cross the area till the joining into West Bengal. As per SPCB record, the two organic and bacteriological parameters i.e. Dissolved Oxygen (DO) and Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD) have been studied for Phusro bridge stations of River Damodar. The both the concentration of DO complies with the stipulated CPCB standard of >4 mg/l , < 3mg/l. Major drain wise waste water quality & upstream and downstream of river in terms of BOD, DO, COD, TSS, VSS & pH has been presented in DPR, however drains which will be tapped under the project has generally BOD ranges from 20-64 mg/l & COD-100- 300 Mg/l.

36. Land use: Predominant land use of the sub project area is majorly built up & open. In order to tap waste water drain from the major nala of Phusro city before falling in the River Damodar, STP locations are proposed near the river (ranges from 100 to 300 m ). I&D Work, which is almost planned along the available width of Road may have social impact in terms of disturbance during construction activities. Therefore necessary environment and social mitigation measures shall be required to be implemented by Concessionaire during construction work. 37. In project region Phusro city under Bokaro District, no ASI protected Archeological site/ Monuments has been identified. However during site visit one small temple is located in vicinity 0f 30-40 m outside the proposed site of 1 MLD STP. During construction phase, concessionaire shall ensure the adequate safety and security in the way of temples. No Temple, school are impacted under the project.

Environmental and Social Impacts and their Mitigation 38. Though the project envisages environmental and social impacts, however they are temporary in nature and can be mitigated with the proper implementation safeguard measures suggested in the ESDDR designed for the project along with effective monitoring of the implementation. The project is expected to benefit the city, as the wastewater that currently generated, flows untreated into the River Damodar will be tapped, treated at designated STPs and treated effluent will be allowed to flow into the Damodar river. . The Sewerage and STP Scheme at Phusro is not located within Eco-Sensitive Zone of any Protected area/national Park /Eco sensitive zones, Ecological Sensitive Area. . Project sites do not fall under Forest Notified area (PF/ RF/ Social Forestry). . Around 2.07 acre land is required for 3 Proposed STP (4 MLD for Zone I), (10 MLD for Zone III, IV & V) & (1 MLD for Zone II) in different location of the city. The proposed land for STP construction is available with the Executive Agency (JUIDCO). The Present land is Government Open land, free from Encroacher & squatter. The designated land identified for establishing various project components belongs to Central Coalfields Limited (Ministry of Coal), Jharkhand. The available Land for proposed STPs/MPS has already been physically handed over to the ULB Phusro. However, the ownership, rights of title and interest over the land shall continue to remain with Central Coalfields Limited. For reference the copy of the memorandum of understanding (MOU) is attached as Annexure-3. No private land or impact on tree is anticipated for laying work. . As per site investigation, no trees are impacted in selected sites, however, few trees are left at site, these have been considered under Landscaping & Green buffer. . Land selected for STP will not involve any relocation of household, no relocation is envisaged. . Project will not have any adverse impact on the tribal population. . The limited impacts likely to be on environment are suggested to be mitigated by way of project specific Environmental Management Plan.

. The project will not have any adverse impact on vulnerable and Scheduled Caste community for laying mains. Since all the STPs are proposed in the ULB Owned government Land, no diversion structure is required. Most of the project site is at a distance from the settlement. As per the consultations conducted, the participants expressed their relief and satisfaction that the open drains will be channelized and treated. . The likely anticipated impacts on environment would be overcome by suggesting mitigation measures and proposing project specific environmental & social management plan. Appropriate Sludge Management Plan shall be prepared by the Concessionaire. Suitable site should also be identified by the Concessionaire for the safe disposal of sludge generated at the STP. The Concessionaire shall also need to identify specific site for intermittent storage of waste from SPS and STP sites. . The project does not require any environmental clearance; however as per Provision of Air and Water Act, the project requires obtaining CTE & CTO from SPCB. Consent to Establish (CTE) & Consent to Operate (CTO) for the STP is mandatory to obtain under Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act 1972 & Air (Prevention and control of Pollution) 1981 of Government of India. . Permission for use of water for construction purpose from irrigation department/CGWA (for Surface or Ground Water) should be obtained. . Labour license to be obtained by the Concessionaire prior to construction. . To ensure the implementation of safeguard measures by the Concessionaire, the ESMAP including the suitable conditions for the preparation of project specific detailed ESAMP and necessary recommendation of ESDDR will be included in the bid document. The ESMAP clearly outlines the responsibility for various safeguard management actions associated with the project activities related to Construction stage Labour Management, Assessment of Gender Based Violence and Grievance Redress Mechanism as well as to ensure compliance of the same in accordance with the safeguard requirements of the ESMF.

1. INTRODUCTION 45. River Ganga, along with her many tributaries, has been the source of physical and spiritual sustenance of Indian civilization for millennia, and consequently, her well-being is of prime national concern. It is the largest river basin in India in terms of catchment area and constitutes almost 26 percent of the country’s land mass, near about 30 percent of country’s water resources and supports more than 40 percent of country’s population2. The delta of the Ganga basin is one of the largest in the world, which is known by Sundarbans. It is the 20th longest river in Asia. Drainage of the River traverses through 11 States of the country (Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Bihar, West Bengal, Uttarakhand, Jharkhand, Haryana, Chhattisgarh, Himachal Pradesh and Delhi), where largely covered States are Uttar Pradesh (28.02 %), Bihar (10.86%), West Bengal (8.3%), Uttarakhand (6.15%) and Jharkhand (5.85%). In addition to the physical resource value, the economic, environmental and cultural value of river Ganga is enormous in India. The Ganga also serves as one of India’s holiest rivers whose cultural and spiritual significance is widely known. 46. Despite this iconic status and religious heritage, the Ganga River today is facing formidable pollution pressures, along with the attendant threats to its biodiversity and environmental sustainability. An ever-growing population, together with inadequately planned urbanization and industrialization, has affected the quality of the river’s water. Today, the Ganga’s waters are sullied by the incessant outpouring of sewage, as well as by the large volumes of solid and industrial waste that are churned out by human and economic activity along the river’s banks. According to the reports, the main causes of extreme pollution pressures in river Ganga includes (i) inadequacy of municipal waste water infrastructure and services, (ii) inadequacy of industrial effluent management, (iii) solid waste and non-point pollution sources, and (iv) inadequate in-stream flows. 47. The World Bank recognizes that the pollution in River Ganga is primarily a result of inadequate infrastructure, the weak capacity of local water and wastewater utilities in the basin, and the poor state of environmental monitoring and regulation. The Government of India (GoI) has received loan assistance from the World Bank for the Mission Clean Ganga related activities under NGRBA Program (later which is included as one of the component of the Namami Gange Programme) at the level of institutional development, operational and implementation support and in four sectors, namely, wastewater collection and treatment, industrial pollution control, solid waste management and riverfront development. 48. At the Central level, the National Mission for Clean Ganga (NMCG) registered as a society on 12th August 2011 under the Societies Registration Act, 1860, was constituted as an

authority to ensure implementation of Namami Gange Programme. At State level, State Mission for Clean Ganga (SMCGs) were set-up as registered societies in the respective states, namely Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and West Bengal while Jharkhand has a dedicated nodal cell within the Department of Urban Development and Housing Department was set up. 49. NMCG acted as implementation arm of National Ganga River Basin Authority (NGRBA) which was constituted under the provisions of the Environment (Protection) Act (EPA), 1986. NGRBA has since been dissolved with effect from the 07th October 2016, consequent to the constitution of National Council for Rejuvenation, Protection and Management of River Ganga (referred as National Ganga Council) vide Notification No. S.O. 3187(E), dated 07th October 2016 under EPA 1986 and subsequent amendments vide Notification No. S.O. 1793(E), dated the 21st May, 2019 and Notification No. S.O. 3163(E), dated 02nd September, 2019. 50. The current focus of World Bank funded National Ganga River Basin Projects (NGRBP) under National Mission for Clean Ganga (NMCG) is on six participating States namely Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Jharkhand, West Bengal and Madhya Pradesh. The National Mission for Clean Ganga (NMCG), the implementing wing of Namami Gange Programme has appointed LEA Associates South Asia Private Limited, New Delhi, as a Consulting agency for the preparation of Environmental and Social Due Diligence Report (ESDDR) for “Construction of STP's and I & D Structures in Phusro Nagar Parishad under National Mission for Clean Ganga (Namami Ganga).

1.1 NAMAMI GANGE PROGRAMME 51. NMCG acted as the implementation arm of the National Ganga River Basin Authority (NGRBA) which was constituted under the provisions of the Environment (Protection) Act (EPA), 1986. NGRBA has since been dissolved with effect from the 07th October 2016, consequent to the constitution of National Council for Rejuvenation, Protection and Management of River Ganga (referred as National Ganga Council) vide Notification No. S.O. 3187(E), dated 07th October 2016 under EPA 1986 and subsequent amendments vide Notification No. S.O. 1793(E), dated the 21st May 2019 and Notification No. S.O. 3163(E), dated 02nd September 2019. 52. The Government of India has launched “Namami Gange” as an Integrated Conservative Mission Programme in the year 2014. The Namami Gange programme is an umbrella programme that covers the previously sanctioned ongoing projects as well as the projects in new components with a multi sector mandate to address both water quality and water quantity issues. The programme aims at integrating previous and currently ongoing initiatives by enhancing efficiency, extracting synergies and supplementing them with more comprehensive and better coordinated interventions. Namami Gange Programme has been segregated into three different components:

► Component 1: Institutional Development: This component will support to the national, state and municipal governments to strengthen implementation and financing arrangements and develop a framework to improve Ganga river basin management. ► Component 2: Infrastructure Development: Pertains to the initiatives to be undertaken under National Ganga Plan in 5 major sectors i.e. Infrastructure Development (Sewage Treatment, River Front Development, and Industrial Wastewater Treatment & Solid Waste Management), Ecological Sustainability and Research & Development and Communication & Public Outreach. ► Component 3: Program communication and management: NMCG conducts a range of vibrant communication activities ranging from ground-level community engagement exercises, social and traditional media outreach, public debates and lectures, to a flagship mass media campaign. 53. The Namami Gange Program with a definite timeline of five year required a truly empowered implementing body. This realization led to reconstitution of NMCG as an Authority on 7th October 2016. With simultaneous dissolution of NGRBA, the present form of NMCG as an Authority is the designated body to take all necessary decisions and actions for pollution abatement and rejuvenation of River Ganga. Later in 2019, Ministry of Jal Shakti was formed by merging Ministry of Water Resources, River Development & Ganga Rejuvenation and Ministry of Figure 1-1: Salient Feature of Namami Gange Program Drinking Water and Sanitation. Now, NMCG falls under the Department of Water Resources, River Development & Ganga Rejuvenation, Ministry of Jal Shakti. 54. The Namami Gange Programme will be implemented in the Ganga Basin in India. The overall technical assistance and program development under the proposed project will focus on the entire Ganga Basin; however specific sub-project investments under this project will focus on critical stretches of six basin states of Uttarakhand, Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Jharkhand, West Bengal and Madhya Pradesh in India.

2. PROJECT DESCRIPTION

2.3 ABOUT THE CITY 56. Phusro city falls in Bermo block under Bokaro district. Phusro city is a notified area comes under Phusro Nagar Parishad. The city geographically located on latitude 23°45'43.70"N & 86° 0'7.45"Longitude in State of Jharkhand. The city is located at 35 kilometer from district town of Bokaro (i.e. Steel City Bokaro). Geographically it lies along the banks of Damodar River which is a tributary of the holy river Ganga. As per 2011 Census of India, Phusro Urban Agglomeration had a total population of 186,139, of which males were 97,665 and females 88,874. Phusro Urban Agglomeration is composed of Phusro (Nagar Parishad), Bermo (Census Town), Jaridih Bazar (CT), Bokaro (CT) and Kurpania (CT). Phusro Nagar Parishad (Municipal Council) has total 28 wards and total population is 89178 (male 46605 and female 42573). 57. The city is well connected by rail with several important cities including Kolkata, Bhopal, Ajmer, Jabalpur, Ujjain, Patna by direct trains. The ‘Grand Trunk Road’ passes through the northern part of the district, which connects the northern India with the Eastern. Phusro is regionally linked by road to other urban areas by NH-23 to Bokaro Steel City and further to state Capital Ranchi; in the south east towards Jaspur in Chhattisgarh through NH-78. Large numbers of buses ply between Phusro and neighboring cities like Ranchi, Jamshedpur, Dhanbad, Bokaro and Hazaribagh. Buses to north Bihar cities also ply from Phusro. A large area in northern side of the city belongs to Central Coalfield Limited (CCL). Therefore people are mostly either employed in CCL or run their own business mainly related to coal. 58. Bokaro district is bounded on the east by Dhanbad district and some portion of West Bengal State, on the west by Ramgarh district, on the south by Purulia district of West Bengal and on the north by parts of Giridih, Hazaribag and Dhanbad districts. 59. Bokaro district, a part of the Chota Nagpur Plateau, has undulating surface with the altitude varying between 200 and 282 m. topographically, the entire area is divided into three parts – the Bokaro uplands in the west, the Bokaro-Chas uplands in the middle and Barakar basin in the east. The general slope of the region is from the west to the east. The main rivers are the Damodar, Garga, Parga, Konar and Gobei. The district, covered with hills and forests, is a mining-industrial area. With the construction of the gigantic Bokaro Steel Plant in the nineteen sixties, it has become the focal point of this district.

2.4 EXISTING SCENARIO OF SEWERAGE FACILITIES IN PHUSRO CITY

Overview of Existing Sewerage & Sanitation provisions of Phusro 60. Presently, there is no existing sewerage system/ network in the Phusro town. The type of drain in the town area Kuctha drain & Pucca Drain (approx.20km & 40 km) only. Most of the houses have adopted the practice of onsite disposal by constructing septic tank with effluent discharge into soak-pits or open surface drains. Absence of a proper wastewater collection and treatment system has resulted in disposal of untreated wastewater into the storm water drains (which are mostly open at present) and ultimately discharging to the river / water bodies. The overall level of service of the waste water disposal system in Phusro town is very poor, which is one of the major causes of river and ground water pollution. The pockets which were mining areas under CCL which are in the low lying areas have become waste water collection system for that particular area.

62. Water Supply: Sources of water supply in Phusro city is fulfilled by Surface and ground water. Presently Phusro Nagar Parishad is providing water supply of 1.2 MLD to 5 wards i.e. 14, 24, 25, 26 & 27 and the source of water is Damodhar River. The water supply to remaining wards is taken care by CCL (4.8MLD to 23 Wards. To improve the present water supply system in ULB, Public Health & Engineering Department in 2014-15 prepared a DPR for 24X7 water supply. The Scheme constitutes 29 MLD Treatment Plant, 3 No’s Service Reservoirs and water supply pipeline network of 135 Kms. Presently the execution of work is under progress and expected to be completed by December.

2.5 NECESSITY OF THIS PROJECT 63. Phusro city is situated at bank of Damodar River. Due to non-availability of sewerage system in Phusro city, the waste water is being discharged into open drains which ultimately discharge into river Damodar, and resulting the increase in pollution level of the holy river, which is main concern of the Government and N.G.T. Due to tremendous population growth and increased areas of habitation, and null sewerage facility, the untreated sewerage disposal is a critical problem. Presently the waste water from septic tanks are discharged directly into the Kachha drains creating unhygienic environment. These drains/ Nala are joining into the River Damodar. The census data on decadal population of Phusro (Nagar Parishad) since year 1991 is presented in figure below:

Figure 2-5: Population Growth Trend of Phusro 64. Hence to prevent these drains discharging waste water directly without any treatment and providing a systematic Sewerage Network in the city in Damodar River, the major Drain tapping and providing treatment facility to clean the sewerage water is considered to clean the River Damodar. Phusro city unlike other Indian cities does not have a centralized sewer system for collection, transportation, treatment and disposal of domestic and institutional wastewater.

Final Report

Environmental and Social Due Diligence Report (ESDDR) for Interception & Diversion with Rehabilitation of sewerage scheme at Phusro

The census data on decadal population of Phusro (Municipal Corporation) since year 1991 is presented in figure above: 65. In order to reduce pollution load in River Damodar, the immediate removal of sewage from its sources of generation followed by treatment, reuse or dispersal into the environment in an eco-friendly manner is necessary to protect public health and environment.

2.6 PROPOSED PROJECT ACTIVITIES 66. Under Namami Gange program, the objectives is to Intercept and Divert major Nala of the city and convey this to the Treatment Plant before entering of waste Water into the River Damodar, Tributary of River Ganga. Therefore to prevent untreated waste water of drains of the city from joining the river by intercepting and divert them through sewers to sewage treatment plants for treatment and allow only treated sewage to be discharged into river Damodar. The sewage collection system is designed based on contributing population and proportionate sewage generated in the laterals. The populations per metre length of lateral are considered based on the proportionate ward contribution on the population projection. The total length of Trunk sewers, main, sub main, laterals is calculated individually against individual diameters. Sewage collected from the different households through laterals and main sewers will be discharged into the nearest trunk sewer and the same is transported to collecting well of STP, from which the sewage is conveyed for treatment and finally disposed to River Damodar. 67. In the town, there are four (4) drains discharging into river Damodar. Drain 1 namely, Bodhi Nala is carrying flows from Zone I. Drain 2 is minor Nala and not having any specific name and meeting Damodar in Giti ya Tar bati. Drain 3 namely, Jhoria Nala. It is carrying discharges from Zone III and IV. Drain IV namely Ghotiya nala carries discharge from Zone V.

The general slope is from North West to south east. Geologically the area is comprised with Archean granites and gneisses. In southern part Gondwana rock formation occurs in patches. 107. Bokaro District’ soil is broadly grouped into granite geneiss of Archean age, sand stone and shales of Gondwana Age & Alluvial soil. Therefore texture wise soil area of generally stony gravelly, sandy soil, Loamy Soil, Clayey Soil. The predominant soil of the project area is sandy loamy and clay. Since, city is geographically located along the bank of River Damodar, Alluvial soil nature also predominant. In general the area is very fertile but yielding capacity improved with addition of sand, lime and organic manures etc.

The graphical representation of Ambient Air Quality data being recorded at monitoring station Jorapokhar, Dhanbad by State Pollution Control Board for the one week is presented in Figure 5-3. The location of monitoring station is around 30 km away from the Phusro city. Since, this is only available authentic record from SPCB near the project district, therefore station Jorapokhar, as the nearest representative has been taken for analysis & verification. The concentration of SO2 & NO2 is within the CPCB standard. However PM10 has been recorded slightly above the permissible limit at few days only. 113. Vehicular pollution, dust for nearby construction activities and having industries (thermal power plant) may cause the variations in PM level. In order to prevent the increase of suspended particulate matter in project location, corresponding measures should be undertaken during construction stage (preventive measures are presented in EMP of the Report- Annexure-6).

Figure 5-14: SC & ST % 5.2.5 Socio-cultural 142. Phurso city is situated on the northern bank of river Damodar and located at about 110km from Ranchi, capital city of Jharkhand State. Phurso is under Bermo sub-division of Bokaro district and important city of Bokaro district. The Bokaro district was created on 1st April, 1991 by taking out Chas and Chandankiyari C.D.Blocks of Dhanbad district and the entire Bermo Subdivision of Giridih district and then merging them to form a new district. Bokaro district is bounded on the east by Dhanbad district and some portion of West Bengal State, on the west by Ramgarh district, on the south by Purulia district of West Bengal and on the north by parts of Giridih, Hazaribag and Dhanbad districts. 143. The early history of the greater part of the area is difficult to trace, as the present district of Bokaro forms only a small and insignificant part of Manbhum. In the Settlement Report of Manbhum, It has been stated that no rock inscription, no copper plates or old coins were discovered in course of the survey and settlement operations. The oldest authentic documents produced were all on paper and they are barely a hundred years old. Earlier, district of Bokaro, which till 1991 Census was part of Dhanbad district, was in turn, part of the old district of Manbhum. 144. The old district of Manbhum (consisting of the present Bokaro district) was acquired by the British in 1765. During the British period a series of military operation brought the petty Zamindar under control. The permanent settlement was effected in this area in 1796. In 1805 a new district named Jungle Mahal was constituted into a separate magisterial charge with headquarters at Bankura. In 1833 the district of Jungle Mahal was broken up and a new district called Manbhum was constituted, later on in 1838 Purulia was fixed as the headquarter of Manbhum district. In fact, Bokaro, the industrial area of prominence gained importance and won the famous place in the map of India with decision of Govt. of India in the early 1960’s to establish modern public Sector Steel Plant with the collaboration of the Soviet Russia. It was in 1966 that Smt. Indira

Gandhi, the late Prime Minister laid the foundation stone of what today is famous as Bokaro Steel Plant. Again in early 1990’s a new horizon had opened with the identification of enormous source of Methane gas in the Chandankiyari area by the ONGC. It is reported that the ONGC is planning to establish an enormous Gas Plant in the region, which will be greater in size and importance than the present Bokaro Steel Plant. 145. The Bokaro district is rich in coal minerals. Other mineral like stone, sand, limestone, quartz etc. are also available in the district. The Bermo-Phusro Coal field area is entirely situated in this district and is rich for coal. A part from coal other minerals for extraction are Stone, Stone Boulders. Production of Stone Chip is also done. 146. Hindus are prominent in Phurso city with 87.92 percent and followed by Muslim community is the second most popular religion in the city with approximately 10.22 percent. 5.2.6 City’s Planned Activities 147. Bokaro Steel City (About this sound pronunciation is one of the planned cities of India, a major industrial centre and the fourth largest city in the Indian state of Jharkhand. It is the administrative headquarters of Bokaro district. The city stands at an elevation of 210 metres (690 feet) above sea level and has an urban area of 183 square kilometres (71 square miles). Bounded on the east by Dhanbad and Purulia, on the west by Ramgarh and Hazaribagh, on the north by Giridih and on the south by Ranchi. It is accessible through National Highway NH 143 & NH-18. 5.2.7 Slum areas in Project City 148. The city has approximately 1010 population slums (notified) in phusro city which represents 1.13 % of total population, located in Phusro Nagar Parishad with electricity and tap water connection.

6. ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL SAFEGUARD DUE DILIGENCE 149. The process of environmental and social due diligence was accomplished through the review of available documents viz. Detailed Project Reports (DPR) and other literatures related to environmental and social aspects of the project area. Site visits / field surveys, detailed interactions with key stakeholders and consultations with host communities at site wherever feasible are also conducted to identify and assess the anticipated environmental and social impacts associated with the proposed project, as well as to develop an Environmental and Social Management Action Plan (ESMAP) recommending suitable mitigation measures.

6.1 ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL SAFEGUARDS DUE DILIGENCE – FINDINGS 6.1.1 Environmental and Social Assessment 150. As on date, no previous environmental and social study has been carried out for Phusro sewerage system project. The E&S Screening carried out as per ESMF guideline shows that the project falls in ‘Low impact’ category (please refer Annexure 1). The major outcomes of the screening are given under: . The Sewerage and STP Scheme at Phusro is not located within Eco-Sensitive Zone of any Protected area/national Park /Eco sensitive zones, Ecological Sensitive Area. . Project sites do not fall under Forest Notified area (PF/ RF/ Social Forestry). . Around 2.1 acre land is required for 3 Proposed STP (4 MLD for Zone I), (10 MLD for Zone III, IV & V) & (1 MLD for Zone II) in different location of the city. The proposed land for STP construction is available with the Executive Agency (JUIDCO). The Present land is Government Open land, free from encumbrances. . As per site investigation, no trees are impacted in selected sites, however, few trees are left at site, these have been considered under Landscaping & Green buffer. . Land selected for STP will not involve any relocation of household, no relocation is envisaged. . Project will not have any adverse impact on the tribal population. . The limited impacts likely to be on environment are suggested to be mitigated by way of project specific Environmental Management Plan. . The project will not have any adverse impact on vulnerable and Scheduled Caste community for laying mains. Since all the STPs are proposed in the ULB Owned government Land, no diversion structure is required. Most of the project site is at a distance from the settlement. As per the consultations conducted, the participants expressed their relief and satisfaction that the open drains will be channelized and treated. 6.1.2 Implementation Arrangement

GRM officer is supported by one social expert who helps to coordinate with all the state the SMCGs. 162. At SMCG level, the Urban Development and Housing Department (UD&HD) is overall monitoring the grievances. One Communication cum Social Development Manager (Mrs Anjana Bharti) is heading at state level and followed by the one officer at each for ongoing project location level (Sahibganj & Rajmahal). 163. All the grievances and resolution will be the part of Quarterly Progress Report as Annexure. The grievances should be resolved by conducting monthly review meetings and if site team is unable to resolve the issue on its own, the complaint/matter is brought up to state level. 164. ESDDR suggest establishing the similar grievance redressal mechanism in Phusro site as well. Further, it is also recommended to constitute a GRC in the PIU to record and redress public grievances. Along with the contacts details provided above the directions from Project Director, UD&HD to mandate the display of Grievance Redressal Mechanism at all the sub-project locations. A grievance reporting format is attached at Annexure 7 & Annexure 4 showing office order in compliance of GBV & GRM under Namami Gange Project. Similar Arrangement shall also be developed for proposed sub project. 6.1.8 Gender Assessment and Development 165. According to ESMF, the objective of Gender Assessment and Development is to analyse gender issues during the preparation stage of sub projects, design interventions and primary data collection. The gender analysis shall be carried out based on findings from gender specific queries and requirements during data collection and community consultation process. The quantitative and qualitative analysis shall include sex disaggregated data, issues related to gender disparity, needs, constraints, priorities and understanding of gender based inequitable risks, benefits and opportunities as well as gender relevant indicators. 6.1.9 Gender Based Violence (GBV) 166. GBV is an umbrella term for any harmful act that is perpetrated against a person’s will and that is based on socially ascribed gender differences. GBV includes acts that inflict physical, mental, sexual harm or suffering; threats of such acts; and coercion and other deprivations of liberty, whether occurring in public or in private life. The project site includes both the actual locations where civil works are conducted and also the associated areas such as the locations of workers’ camps, quarries, etc. These GBV risks need to be assessed throughout the project’s life by monitoring the situation, assessing the effectiveness of risk mitigation measures, and adapting them. 167. Since a sub project involves construction work that will demand a constant supply of labourers, the influx of migrant workforce can be a potential risk for the host population. The influx of labour force can lead to the risk of Gender-Based Violence.

After having testing of Biological / chemical and heavy metal /toxic content of the sludge, priority to be made by concessionaire under supervision with ULB for handing over sludge/

Final Report

Environmental and Social Due Diligence Report (ESDDR) for Interception & Diversion with Rehabilitation of sewerage scheme at Phusro

manure to nearby local farmer as much as possible. Concessionaire should undertake sensitization program about importance of sludge and safe use of sludge in agricultural practices with local farmer under supervision of ULB. (Refer Annexure 9- sludge disposal standard to be used as fertilizer). . Suitable site should also be identified by the Concessionaire within the project premises for the safe storage of sludge. The necessary safeguard measures associated with the storage and disposal of sludge are provided in the ESMAP (Annexure-6 ESAMP) of this report. The surplus amount of sludge shall be managed and processed at Phusro ULB’s Solid Waste Management Site. As per discussion with EO (ULB Phusro- dealing with SWM), it has been conveyed that ULB Phusro is in process to provide a Solid Waste Management Facility in Phusro Municipal Corporation. In this respect, Collection, transportation and processing of waste shall be done by ULB’s authorized vendor. Presently, ULB’s Solid Waste Management site is under preparation at Makoli village, around 10 acre land has been earmarked for SWM facility. It is also used in the landscape within STP and in the parks nearby. Concessionaire will be responsible for proper coordination with ULB’s SWM vendor for safe disposal of sludge. . EA (JUIDCO) is advised to hire services of local NGOs/CBOs for information dissemination and public consultations for awareness about significant value of sludge in farm filed as soil moisture control, fertilizer etc. . In addition to the STP Plant, Hydro power generation plant of 5 KW capacities is also proposed in Zone 1 near to 4 MLD STP. Since flow of Influent is perceived from good height therefore before entering into the Sewerage Equalization / collection tank, raw waste water will be conveyed to Hydropower unit to generate the Sustainable Power. The necessary arrangement shall be done by concessionaire. . Consideration should be given for constructing garland drain around the site with small opening intermittently in the boundary wall allowing rainwater to drain-off without accumulating in the adjacent residential areas. . Excavated materials should be used for backfilling of the trench area, low lying areas of the site. . Efficient site restoration measure should be developed and checked regularly by assigned engineer to avoid the public and traffic inconvenience. . Local traffic disturbance is anticipated due to laying work of Sewerage line (650) and Rising main line (950m) along the road/ kaccha or Pucca drain, therefore proper Traffic Management Plan should be prepared by concessionaire for reducing traffic congestion and mitigating disturbances to public during the excavation works.
