Wuhan Urban Environmental Improvement Project

Social Monitoring Report

1 Brief Introduction

The Wuhan Urban Environmental Improvement Project (the Project) will (1) improve and solve the urgent problem of Wuhan wastewater sludge treatment and disposal, and (2) develop integrated urban water resource management and environmental infrastructure in the new urban development areas. The Project will include four components: (i) Wuhan Sludge Treatment and Disposal, (ii) Wuhan New Zone Lake/Channels Rehabilitation and Pumping Station, (iii) Yangchun Lake Secondary Urban Center Lake/Channel Rehabilitation, and (iv) Institutional Strengthening and Capacity Development.

Rivers and lakes are abundant (rivers and lakes surface take up about one quarter of the urban area) in Wuhan, which largely determine the urban landscape and development of the City. The Project will be implemented in Hanyang and Hongshan districts. Wuchang District is potentially impacted because it located in the downstream of the component of the Wuhan New Zone Lake/Channels Rehabilitation and Sixin Pumping Station. Longyang Lake, Moshui Lake, Sanjiao Lake, Nantaizi Lake and some other small lakes are located in Hanyang district. There are also many lakes such as South Lake, Tangxun Lake and Huangjia Lake, etc. in Hongshan District.The total number of beneficiaries of the project is 2,000,745, including 1,000,373 women, 24,009 poor people and 20,007 ethnic minorities. The number of beneficiaries is shown in Table 1-1.

2 Methods

The method is based on the SAP during the project assessment, through interviewing with key persons, collecting project-related information from the project office, collecting statistical data, and tracking and monitoring socio-economy situations to evaluate the achievement of social goals. Monitoring results of SAP are shown in Table 2-1 and Table 2-2.

6 Eliminating Negative Effect

Negative effect in the project construction mainly refers to the effect of noise and dust on the nature, ecological environment and living of residents. Many measures were taken to eliminate the negative effect caused by this project.

Aiming at this situation, the construction work that caused environmental noise pollution was forbidden in the night at the construction sites near the villager’s residences. If construction work must be in the night due to production techniques or special requirement, it can be conducted only after it is ratified after the application to the relative administrative department, and the arrangement should be notified in advance to the residents around the construction sites. Frequent watering conservation was carried out for construction detours, and the material vehicles drove at a limited speed to reduce the dust pollution to local crops. In the section with both construction and opening traffic, special persons were appointed to direct the traffic, and warning signboards were also erected.

Construction vehicles went slow in the residential area and were prohibited to blow the whistle. Set up drains to keep the road surface without water and discharge waste water after the precipitation treatment. These measures have significantly reduced the negative impact of the project.

Yangchun Lake sub-project construction sites have completed 100% of the work to eliminate the negative impacts. In the New Zone Company’s sites, Zong channel greening construction site just completed 92.5% of the work to eliminate the negative impact, other sites were100% to complete the elimination of the negative impact; Water Resource Investment Company’s sites eliminated 90% of the negative impact on average. Sewage sub-project has completed 96% of the work to eliminate the negative impacts.
