Leak repair work will be similar to the pipe-laying work.

289. The public participation processes undertaken during project design ensured that stakeholders were engaged during the preparation of the IEE. The planned information disclosure measures and process for carrying out consultation with affected people will facilitate their participation during project implementation.

290. The project’s grievance redress mechanism has provided the citizens with a platform for redressal of their grievances, and describes the informal and formal channels, time frame, and mechanisms for resolving complaints about environmental performance.

291. The EMP will assist the project agencies and DBO contractor in mitigating the environmental impacts, and guide them in the environmentally-sound execution of the proposed project.

292. A copy of the EMP/approved SEMP is kept on-site during the construction period at all times. The EMP has been made binding on all contractors operating on the site, and will be included in the contractual clauses. Non-compliance with, or any deviation from, the conditions set out in this document shall constitute a failure in compliance.

293. Groundwater in these two blocks are contaminated with fluoride and water level is depleting. The project will benefit the general public by contributing to the long-term improvement of water supply system and community liability in the project blocks of Indpur and Taldangra. The potential adverse environmental impacts are mainly related to the construction period, which can be minimized by the mitigating measures and environmentally-sound engineering and construction practices.

294. Therefore, as per ADB SPS, the project is classified as environmental Category B and does not require further environmental impact assessment. However, to conform to government guidelines WTP requires consent for establish (CTE) and consent for operate (CTO) from West Bengal Pollution Control Board. Consent to Establish (CTE) is already obtained from West Bengal Pollution Control Board.

295. This IEE shall be updated during implementation of the project to reflect any changes, amendments and will be reviewed and approved by PMU.

296. Recommendations.

Appendix 9: Guidelines for Safety during Monsoon/Heavy Rainfall

Excavation and refilling of earth are common activities, which, if not carefully executed may pose problems to the safety of works as well as passers-by and road users during the impending Monsoon.

Normal and heavy rainfall event affect our ongoing works, It should be our conscientious effort to ensure that such events do not prove to be problematic to people and structures in town. During monsoon PIU/DSISC should ensure that any further excavation work is taken up only after ensuring that the earlier work is in safe stage. It is desired that Construction Manager & Ex En PIU should inspect all sites during rains and take proactive actions.

Some of the precautions and mitigation measures to be taken are discussed below- 1. The execution of works having deep excavation in smaller lanes and congested areas should be completed well before monsoon. The works of deep excavation during monsoon should not be preferably taken up or extensive care should be taken for execution of such works. 2. The settlement in refilled trenches of sewerage and water supply lines may occur during monsoon. DSISC and PIU team should inspect all sites after a storm to identify such reaches and take immediate corrective action by proper refilling and compacting. It is responsibility of all engineers to look after this activity during monsoon and ensure corrective actions from Contractor’s side. 3. The contractor’s crew should be equipped with vehicle, gum boots, raincoats, torch etc. to tackle such situation during and after rains. Adequate quantities of earth, debris and gravel should be stacked at strategic places so that no time is lost in procuring such material. 4. In trenches where pipe laying has been done and duly tested and approved, refilling should be done and all surplus material relocated to safe disposal sites such that it does not obstruct traffic or waterways. 5. All open ends of WS pipelines should be firmly plugged to prevent debris from entering the pipeline. 6. Drains are primary or secondary carriers of storm water. Any unutilized construction material should be relocated to allow free passage of storm water. Surplus earth should be suitably and immediately be relocated to avoid earth from falling into the drain so that choking does not occur. 7. Overhead works should not be carried on in-weather conditions that threaten the safety of workers. More frequent checks on scaffold and bracings should be done during monsoon season. 8. Additional precautions should be taken of the power lines, ignorance and carelessness can cause major accidents and casualty. 9. Take preventive measures for water logging in working areas by providing dewatering pumps. Place bright and reflective warning signs. 10. Inspection should also be carried out before resumption of work after a shower/rain. 11. Storage of Construction Material: Steel & Cement are vital ingredients for quality construction work but in absence of proper storage, especially during monsoon, cement and steel may rapidly decline in quality and strength. Care should be taken to protect these materials and use of any exposed material should be allowed only after conducting fresh tests. Improper storage of such material should be reported to SE PIU/CM of DSISC and use of any apparently affected material should be done after permission of SE PIU//CM.

P a g e | 143

Additional Precautions

1. Adequate set up and resources such as dewatering pumps, electrical routings etc should be planned ahead. Water logging on main roads to be avoided, where construction works are going on.

2. Ensuring the monsoon specific PPE’s issued in adequate and are used during monsoon.

3. Use of electric extension box should be avoided; extension cables (if used) should not be wet and damaged. Cables connections should be only weatherproof/waterproof. Electrical and HSE personnel of contractor should visit permanent and running sites regularly. Transparent protective sheets/rain sheds should be placed for the power distribution boards.

4. Welding machines, bar cutting machines etc. should be kept in dry conditions; should not stand in water logged area. Brakers and Drill machines should not be used when raining; dirt/mud should be scrubbed with cloth.

5. Special Trainings to all drivers and operators on safe practices and all vehicles/ equipment’s maintenance checks to be more frequent.

6. High boom equipment to be stopped during blowing of high-speed wind and rain storm. Arresting of parked vehicles, equipment during monsoon should be done.

7. All chemicals should be stored as per MSDS, chemicals to be protected from water ingress. Chemical waste should be disposed for preventing overflow of chemicals.

8. At labor camps following precautions should be taken:- • Maintaining hygiene & proper housekeeping. • Additional health check-up camp to identify seasonal diseases • Preventive measures on mosquito/parasite breeding mainly in work locations and camps • Frequent cleaning of toilets • To avoid water borne diseases, high level of cleanliness to be maintained, drinking water containers need to be cleaned and kept covered. Walk areas and pathways to be covered with Murom and soft rock particles (to avoid soft soil conditions). • Obstacle free approach to rest sheds, camp and toilets. • Proper illumination, provision of battery-operated emergency lights • No bonfires inside resting sheds. No use of wood.

SE–PIU and CM-DSISC should oversee the arrangements to effectively deal with the eventuality.

EHS officer of contractor should visit each site and camps more frequently. Contractor/EHS officer will also impart training on safe working methods during Monsoon and will keep a daily watch on weather conditions to share with site team to act accordingly.

Contractor should organize Monsoon Health Camps and Monitor Workmen Habitat and Hygiene.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

The raw water for the proposed water supply project for Indpur and Taldangra blocks will be abstracted from surface water of resource of Mukutmanipur reservoir (also known as Kangsabati reservoir). It is located at approximately 3.2 km upstream of the confluence of River Kangsabati and River Kumari. In1956, a giant water dam/reservoir was constructed at Mukutmanipur, about 12km from Khatra within the district of Bankura, West Bengal.

The Irrigation and Waterways Department (IWD) has already given a permission of drawl of 44 MLD raw water for drinking water purpose under the Bankura water supply project.

The overall improvement plan is to tap the raw water from Mukutmanipur reservoir and treat the water at Water Treatment Plant close to the intake point. The proposed WTP land belongs to Irrigation and Water ways Department Government of West Bengal (IWD). The treated water will be pumped to GLSR located at Gobindopur mouza of Indpur block. The assessment of the alignment indicated that the length of the primary transmission main from WTP to GLSR is around 22km.

SCOPE OF WORK AND SERVICES

The contract scope for the present subject contract WBDWSIP/DWW/NCB/BKP/01/2018-19 comprises of the following components:

Component A: Design, build, supply, install and commission raw water intake well cum pumping station and approach bridge in Mukutmanipur reservoir and raw water transmission main from Intake well to WTP located near Gorabari GP (Satsole) in Khatra block, with all ancillary Civil, Mechanical, Electrical and Instrumentation works and SCADA all complete.

Component B: Design, build, supply, install and commission of Water Treatment Plant including clear water reservoir and pumping station, sub-station with all ancillary Civil, Mechanical, Electrical and Instrumentation works and SCADA all complete.

Component D: Operation and Maintenance of the Design-Built Works for a period of 2 years after successful commissioning as per the scope under this contract.

PROJECT OBJECTIVES

Presently, the demand of the rural areas within the fold of the selected 2 blocks of Indpur and Taldangra (henceforth referred as project area) is met from ground water and sub-surface sources. With increase in population and increase in ground water withdrawal (for agricultural and drinking water purposes), the ground water resources are getting depleted. Also, in select areas, the ground water is affected by fluoride contamination.

Primarily the prioritization and appraisal of the WS Scheme is based on the Preliminary Project Report prepared by the PHED, as a part of its endeavour to provide Piped Water Supply to the rural areas as per the plan outlined in “VISION-2020”. The selected 2 blocks have been

P a g e | 230

1. INTRODUCTION OF SMP:

SMP is to describe how the project will manage the spoil generated and reuse related to design and construction works. This is an integral part of EMP. The objective of SMP is to reuse of spoil from works.

2. SCOPE:

This Spoil Management Plan developed for WTP, Intake and Pipeline laying works. We do not anticipate any excess Spoil for disposal as all excavated material will be reuse at site only.

3. LEGAL AND OTHER REQUIREMENTS:

In this project, there is no legal litigation at site for land and working area or site. Disposal of spoil will be confirming the Environmental Protection Rules and Regulations of Govt. of India and the State Govt.

4. ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITY:

SITE ENGINEER: • Will strictly work as per drawing. • Will stay at site during activity is going on. • Will see excess earth is kept at a particular place after completion of backfilling. • Will ensure quality of the work by discussing daily about the type of activity on that day with the workmen. • Will check site drain outlets are not blocked due to excavated earth on the drain.

SAFETY PERSONNEL: • Will constant Job specific Tool Box Talk with Supervisor and Workmen. • Will check excavated earth kept away from top. • Will check if any underground pipeline is there or live electric cable there water should be sprayed to avoid dust hazard from excavation. • Necessary Safety signage, Cones& FRP Barricading Board to be used. • Vehicles reverse horn etc. to be checked will ensure zero tolerance in safety.

WORKER: • They will start activity only after Tool Box Talk done. • They will wear job specific safety items before start of work. • During working inside the excavated trench, they should use ladder for easy access. • They should barricade the area of activity with Safety barricading tape. • Worker should be skilled to carry out the work.

It is the responsibility of the Engineers and all department head to implement this procedure and ensure that delegated staff and worker under their supervision carry it out in this project. Major roles and responsibilities are mentioned below: • Excavated earth should be utilized like refilling at site only. • Traffic movement should not be obstructed by dumping soil during the work. • No low land, pond, ditch etc. will be filled up by extra soil outside the work place.

P a g e | 231

• Ensuring no accident occurs during rainy season by excavated earth during or finished the work. • All the drains, outlet should be free from excavated earth.

5. IDENTIFICATION AND ASSESSMENT OF SPOIL ASPECTS AND IMPACTS:

In this project, places will be identified jointly along with design engineer for utilization. Main places where the excavated earth can be utilized are the trench of pipes and backfilling location.

6. SPOIL VOLUMES AND CHARACTERISTICS:

In this zone, Generation of excavated earth will be approx. 51,165cum. There is no excess earth in this project as the same earth is to be used to fill the low land area.

7. SPOIL REUSES OPPORTUNITIES, IDENTIFICATION AND ASSESMENT:

In this project, there is no excess quality of excavated earth; total excavated earth should be reuse as per plan.

8. ON SITE SPOIL MANAGMENT APPROACH:

In this project, no need of the approach as there is no extra soils for disposal.

9. SPOIL TRANSPORTATION METHODOLOGY:

In this project, no need for spoil transport as there is no extra soils for disposal.

10. MONITORING, REPORTING, REVIEW AND IMPROVEMENTS:

Monitoring, Reporting and all necessary improvements will be done as per requirements.
