@ MWH Final Report Page Al-1-1 MONTOOMEWWATSONH*IV1 BACKGROUND INFORMATION

1. Background

I. The Government of the Kingdom of Thailand has requested the Asian Development Bank (ADB) to provide advisory technical assistance (TA) for the Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT) to address the environmental concerns related to the Mae Moh power plant and mine. EGAT, through the Ministry of Finance, submitted a TA proposal to AD6 for the Mae Moh environmental evaluation. The' TA Fact-Finding Mission visited Thailand from 19 to 28 September 2009 to formulate the TA in consultation with the Government and EGAT. The Mission reached an understanding with the Government and EGAT on the objectives, scope, cost estimates, implementation arrangements, and terms of reference (TOR) for the consultants of the TA.' The TA is included in ADB's country assistance plan for Thailand for the year 2000.

2. EGAT has constructed 13 power generating units with a total installed capacity of about 2,600 megawatt (MW) at Mae Moh, about 600 kilometers north of Bangkok. The Mae Moh power plant was 'built in four phases from 1978 to 1996. Units 1 to 3 with a total installed capacity of 225 MW (75 MW each) were completed in 1978, 1979, and 198 1,2'while units 4 to 7 with an installed capacity of 600 MW (150 MW each) were completed between 1984 and 1985.3 In the third phase, from 1989 to 1991, EGAT built units 8 to 11 with an installed capacity of 1,200 MW (300 MW each). These units were partly financed by ADB4 fogether with the transmission system formits 10 and 11. Unit$ 12 and 13, with an installed capacity of 600 MW (300 MW each) were completed in 1995 and 1996. In connection with this last phase, AD6 helped to finance the power transmission sector projects with EGAT.' "Together with the construction of the power plants, €GAT developed the Mae Moh mine to provide the power plants with lignite, which is the main fuel used in the Mae Moh power plant.

3; Thus,' AD6 has been involved in the Mae Moh power projects directly and indirectly since 1972. The Swiss Government was among the other cofinanciers of the power projects. Since the completion of the first unit in 1978, the Mae Moh power station has been one of EGATs most impoftant-power plants, meeting average about 18 percent of the whole country's demand.

4. Even though environmental protection and mitigation measures were taken during the construction of each phase and in owrations thereafter, the Mae Moh power station, induding the Mae Moh mine, has caused environmental and social problems. Therefore several studies to comct or improve the situation were carried out, and some remedial measures were taken. From 1992 to 1994, the Mae Moh Clean Air Study, sponsored by the Swiss Government, was carried out, addressing environmental issues regarding air emissions and establishing an emission mitigation program for the Mae Moh power station. In 1994, EGAT funded an analysis of sulfur dioxide (SO,) air quality standards for the Mae Moh power plant. From late' 1992 to , 1994, a study of Mae Moh valley's air pollution, sponsored by the United States Agency for

' The TA first appeared in A08 Business Opportunities (internet eddition) on 13 September 2000. Financed by ADB, Loan 113-THA: MeMoh Power, for $23 millkn. approved on 12 December 1972 and Loan 219-THA: Me8 AM Power (Suppbmenteryl for $15 ml#kn,approved on 17 April 1975. Unit 4 was also financed by &2B under Loan 44O-THA: Mas Moh (Unit 4) Power, for $81.8 mlllkn, approved on 14 December 1979. ' Loan 717-THA Mae Moh (Unit 8) Power, for $122.6 million, approved on 11 December 1984; Loan 828-TM Mee Moh (Unit 9) Power, for $38.4 million, approved on 23 December 1986; and Loan 1022-THA: Mae Moh (transmission system lar Units 10 and 11) Powr, for $48.8 rnlNkn, approved 5 June 1990. Loan 1170-THA: 7?tid Power Transmissitm Expension (Sectw),for $94.25 million, approved on 16 July 1992; and Loan 1245THA: Fourth Power Transrnisdm (Sector), for $115.6 million, approved on 19 August 1993. 2

International Development (USAID) and the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) was also carried out with the support of the Pollution Control Department, the Ministry of science, Technology and Environment. As a consequence of the above studies, units 12 and 13 were designed and constructed with the flue gas desulfurisation (FGD) system. Units 8 to 11 were retrofitted with FGD systems from 1995 to 1998. FGD systems have been installed and recently commissioned for units 4 to 7. Ongoing performance tests of the FGD systems for units 4 to 7 will be completed by October 2001. Units 1 to 3 have been temporarily shut down for the last one year because of a high fuel consumption and the economic unviability of FGD retrofitting.

5. After the FGD systems were installed and units 1 to 3 temporarily shut down, the SO2 emission levels decreased substantially. Nevertheless, the environmental and social concerns Over the power plant and mine operations have remained. Local and international newspapers have reported on .the adverse impacts, and nongovernment organizations (NGOs) and villagers living nearby have expressed their concerns about the environmental and social problems from time to time. The concerns center on the huge amount and low quality of the lignite burned, the open-cast mining of the lignite, the huge amount of water resources used and wastewater treated, matters relating to ash disposal, and several air pollution episodes that had occurred in the past. The environmental and social concerns will continue unless remedial measures are taken based on a thorough study of the problems. Therefore, it is imperative for the Government and EGAT to have such a comprehensive study carried out by a team of experts to determine how to resolve the problems. AD6 and the other cofinanciers of the Mae Moh projects are keen to help solve the environmental and social problems caused by the projects.

6. The primary causes of concern for air quality are the SOz, nitrogen oxide (NOx), and total suspended particulate (TSP) matter produced from lignite combustion and mine operation. In October 1992 and August 1998, levels from the Mae Moh power plant exceeded the national standard of 1,3 s per cubic meter (m3) over a one- hour period. After the installation of the FGD systems, air quality in the Mae Moh valley has improved substantially. However, people from the nearby villages are still concerned about a possible recurrence of serious air pollution and the potential health problems associated with environmental hazards.

7. In October 1995, EGAT commissioned a study on Health Effect of Ambient Air Pollution Exposure in the Mae Moh District from the College of Public Health, Chulalongkom University. EGAT has vigorously pursued environmental health matters with the advice of a consulting team from the university. The consulting team will collect crucial technical data this winter (2000/2001), the first winter after the complete installation of the FGD systems. The study is to be completed by September 2001. EGAT assured the Fact-Finding Mission that the university team will provide the information and data on environmental health issues to the consultants to be engaged under the TA.

8. Taking the environmental and social issues on the Mae Moh power plant and mine seriously, the Government and EGAT are determined to fully resolve the problems. The Government has adopted environmental protection and mitigation measures as one of the four major energy policies of the country. In this context, the Government and EGAT consider the TA important and timely. ADB, as the major cofinancier of the Mae hnoh power projects, is concerned about the environmental and social problems associated with the power station and

' The National Environment Board has strengthened the standard for the Mae Moh area b 780 rnicrogram/m3 as of July 2000. 3

mine. The TA will greatly contribute to a fundamental resolution of the Mae Moh environmental and social problems.

9. The people living in nearby villages such as Huaipet and Soppad are generally poor. The poor were seriously affectd by the October 1992 and August 19W incidents of high SOz emission levels and many of them were hospitalized.and treated with the full support of EGAT. The village people were Satisfied with EGATs arrangements at that time, but they wony that such incidents could recur. EGAT has installed the FGD systems in an effort to prevent any further air pollution, but is prepared to provide for the affected people, particularly the poor, in case such an incident recurs. During TA implementation, health and other social issues affecting poor people will be thoroughly addressed, and specific recommendations will be made to help the poor in nearby villages.

10. In spite of the environmental and social studies conducted and remedial measures taken, negative perceptions of the Mae Moh power plant and mine persist among sections of the public, the affected people, NGOs, and the mass media. EGAT has made significant efforts to change such perceptions, but without much success..After the recent FGD installation, however, EGAT is confident that the Mae Moh power plant and mine will not adversely affect the environment of Mae Moh District or northern Thailand. EGAT is therefore prepared to present the actual situation, supported by technical data to the public and to consider suggestions from 'the public for further environmental and social improvements. The Government and EGAT are fully committed to improving the environmental and social situation by implementing further remedial measures to be recommended by a well qualified team of experts. Therefore a comprehensive study to help bring .about further environmental improvement and transparent public consultatipn is imperative at this stage. The TA is designed to meet this need.

II. The Technical Assistance

Final Report Page A3-1-2 APPENDIX 3-1 PARTICIPATORY RURAL APPRAISAL (PRA) & APPRECIATION INFLUENCE CONTROL (AIC)

Introduction

There have been concerns on the environmental and land use in Mae Moh. A number of conflicts between the people and government officials and among the people themselves have occurred. NGOs became involved in the Mae Moh issues. Many community development projects, which have been initiated by government officials or non-government agencies from various fields of development, are often ignored and may not be accepted by the owners of the target communities. Some projects have even been protested against by the people, though, and some by the outside initiators who believe that they could represent those communities better.

For improvement of quality of living, condition of the ecological environment, as well as those for future generations, an action plan has to be developed through a process of participation of the people with a high degree of thought and/or physical involvement, rational decision making, and commitments.

This training manual was produced with an aim to provide the ADB social data collection team members, particularly, the community consultation and initiation team with the techniques of participatory rural appraisal (PRA) and appreciation influence control (AIC). It also aims to learn how to work with the villagers in identifjring and analyzing their existing current socioeconomic problems and situations, and the anticipated conditions in the feasible future. The members and villagers should then analyse their own needs under different situations. This manual provides the guideline on “how to run a PRA and AIC techniques” within the sociocultural context of Mae Moh district people.

This training manual will be useful to ensure that information can be obtained in an independent, objective, positive and constructive manner. This manual is not intended to be rigid, in that commonsense must be always exercised. Without any promise in advance from the members of the social data collection team is highly recommended to be an iron rule for this PRA practice in Mae Moh.

Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA)

What is PRA

Participatory rural appraisal (PRA) is another alternative method for rural community studies for any scholar and development workers. This method intends to promote people participation and the application of indigenous knowledge and local wisdom in identifying the rural problem and needs, which are rather complex and delicate. Outsiders may normally go to a rural village with a high degree of self-confidence to help the villagers without learning their needs and real problems within a given period of time. Those outsiders may go back to their office with disappointment that the villagers did not give them much attention on what he or she would wish to help. Finally, both the villagers and outside conununity development workers may not be able to solicit the cooperation of the villages in working within their concept and framework.

At the earlier stage, the term “RRA” or rapid rural appraisal was used, This referred to an action wherein an outsider went to rural villages, gathered data from the villagers and then processed this data away fiom the villages in a way that the outsiders thought to be suitable and good for the villagers. RRA may be useful in various fields that may need an active and immediate treatment fiom specialists such as medical animal husbandry, farming decease, environmental problems resulting from and impacts of some infrastructure development projects.

Now, a participatory approach to rural development may need someone independent to go to the target rural Cillage to gather d3ta through a participatory learning process with the villagers, A word like learner, catalyst, or facilitator may be appropriate to call such outsider in that manner. PRA expects people to enable villagers, as staged by Robert Chambers (Social Research Institute, 1992:l) as that “to do their own investigations, to share their knowledge and teach us, to do analysis and presentations, to plan, and to own the outcome. PM has been described as a growing family of approaches and methods to enable local people to share, enhance and analyze their knowledge ,of life and conditions, to plan and to act. ”

Some approaches and methods

Some approaches and methods have been suggested by Chambers (op cit.: 9-15) as follows: 1. Offset the anti-poverty biases of rclral development tourism (spatial, project, person, seasonal); 2. Find and review secondary data; 3. Observe directly (see for yourself); 4. Do-it-yourself, supervised and taught by them; 5. Find key informants; 6. Semi-structured interviewing; 7. Group interviews;

Final Report Page A3- 1-4 APPENDIX 3-1 PARTICIPATORY RURAL APPRAISAL (PRA) & APPRECIATION INFLUENCE CONTROL (AIC)

8. Sequence or chains of interviews from group to key informant, to other informants; 9. They do it; 10. Participatory mapping and modeling; 11. Transact walks --- systematically walking with key informants through an area, observing, asking, listening, discussing, identifying different zones,. ..seeking problems, solutions, opportunities, and mapping.. .; 12. Time line: a major history of major events in a village or community with approximate dates. .. ; 13. Local histories; 14. Seasonal diagramming; 15. Livelihood analysis; 16. Well-being or wealth ranking; 17. Scoring and ranking; 18. Local indicators, e.g. what are poor people’s criteria of well-being, and how they differ from those we assume for them? 19. Key probes: questions which can lead direct to key issues; 20. Case studies and stories; 21. Team contracts and interactions; 22. Shared presentations and analysis, where maps, models, diagrams, and findings are presented by villagers and outsiders; 23. Contrast comparisons --- asking group A why group B is different or does something different; 24. Short questionnaires;--- not long questionnaires, and not early in the process, unless for a sharpened narrow purpose; 25. Immediate report writing;

Practical Tips

The social data collection team members should be aware of the following matters: 1. No lecture, no interruption, and no domination, but listening and learning; 2. Spend nights in villages as many as possible; 3. Embrace error --- every one can do wrong, try again; 4. Ask yourself who, where, when, what, and why? 5. Relax, don’t rush; 6. Every one is sensitive to questions and dialogues, joking may be appropriate to reduce any emerging serious conditions while discussing, but somehow, it may stir some irritating emotions as caused by historical and affecting issues;

@ MWH Final Report Page A3-1-5 MONTGOMWWATSONHA~ APPENDIX 3-1 PARTICIPATORY RURAL APPRAISAL (PRA)& APPRECIATION INFLUENCE CONTROL (AIC)

7. Coordinating with local authority and relating sub-district administration organizations’ members.

The Core of Area

Chambers (op. cit. : 7) suggested to new PRA practitioners that there should be some more awareness in applying PRA: 1. Facilitating: PRA is the way to empower and enable the villagers to do more or all of the investigation, mapping, modeling, diagramming, ranking, scoring, quantification, analysis, presentation, and planning by themselves. They should be enabled to share and own the outcome of what they have done. “Analysis by them, shared with us”. 2. Our behaviour and attitudes: The outsiders should ask the villagers to teach us, respect them, and be confident that they can do it. 3. A culture of sharing of information, methods, food, field experiences (between any sectors involved). 4. Critical self-awareness about the outsiders’ attitudes and behaviours; doubt; embracing from error; continuously ’trying to do better; building learning and improvement into every experience.

The Training Procedure

The trainer will discuss with the participants on the main PF2A issues of Chambers’ ideas, ADB concepts, background of Mae Moh Power Plant and Mine projects, and model of each research data collection methods in a basis of PRA, AIC, and participatory action research (PAR).

A design of data collection instruments and methods by the use of AIC and PRA will be mutually conducted by the participants. Such instruments may be as follows: 1. PRA items for collecting data on socioeconomic situation, both current and expected, of the following issues: 2. The status quo of the paddy productiodfruit production, inland fishery and others; 2.1 problems resulting from and impacts of the Mae Moh power plant and mine project, and environmental impacts; 2.2 previous remedial measures provided by EGAT, government, and NGOs in community and life quality improvement; 2.3 related items leading to enable the villagers to build up their scenario of the life quality improvement, and mitigation of negative socioeconomic and environmental impacts on their own villages and broader community. 3. A set of interview guide to collect information from key informants at the village level (gender, age, social status, main occupation, residence, period of staying in the area, rating impacts on the community, opinions and comments); 4.

4.5 Prioritization of the areas affected by the Power Plant and Mine; 4.6 Appropriate measures and plans that the Power Plant and Mine or people should do to help each other; 4.7 Resettlement and its necessity; 4.8 Satisfactory conditions required by the villagers - move or stay; and 4.9 Some open-ended questions.

Possibly, a set of questionnaires, interviewing formats with interviewing items, and data collection formats and tables may be drafted by the trainer as a preparation for mutual' design among the training participants and trainer, and as a practical work of PRA in action.

Then, some villages of the target areas will be selected for field work. Afterwards, all participants, trainer, and other ADB's experts should come together for further discussion and data collection method redesigning, if necessary.

Technique of Appreciation Influence Control (AIC)

The social specialist as the trainer for this purpose will use two case studies in this training session. Then, the training procedures will be conducted as follows:

Case Study 1:

A Participatory Action Research (PAR) on a study of the capability development of drug sellers (Type 2) in Chiang Mai and Lamphun Provinces during 1997-1998. This case was concerned with an initiation of drug sellers and drugstore owners to be aware of safety in selling drugs to rural customers and patients. This project led to a self-development program designed by the participants with a high degree of participation from drugstore owners, sellers, public health officers and university academic personnel. It was a joint venture between potential stakeholders.

Case Study 2:

The Workshop on Mae-Taeng Community Watershed Network, Chiang Mai: the First Part. (Training of Trainers) The first part of the workshop, known as training of trainers, was conducted by the Chiang Mai University training team during November 24-25, 1997 at Chiang Mai Watershed Development Office’s meeting room. The trainees were composed of 60 hill tribe people and 7 watershed management units’ stdf.

The following procedures will be conducted among the trainer and participants in the present assignment and may be used as appropriate.

The trainer staff requested all participants to introduce themselves individually. Then, the trainer will make presentation, using transparencies and power-point program’s slides, on the resource management of Thailand as the big current issue. This issue could not be operated alone, but would need a number of sequential steps in managing the information and their sources as follows:

1. Data survey. 2. Planning. 3. Operating. 4. Follow-up and evaluation.

1. Data survey.

The trainer will give a lecture that there were a number of ways to conduct surveys such as a rough survey (without any accuracy), using secondary sources of information (not directing to needs), questionnaires, in-depth study, rapid rural appraisal (RRA), participatory rural appraisal (PRA), and appreciation influence control (AIC).

~ @ MWH Final Report Page A3-1-9 MONTGOMERYWATSON HARU APPENDIX 3-1 PARTICIPATORY RURAL APPRAISAL (PRA) & APPRECIATION INFLUENCE CONTROL (AIC)

11. Planning problems.

There was insufficient information for planning, inaccuracy, and also planning problems.

12. Operational problems.

Those data collection technique may hwe little participation form villagers, no efficient results, and degraded the information and their sources.

Therefore, AIC was introduced by the trainer as an appropriate technique to correct some weaknesses of such operation, because it gained sufficient information at every sequential step of management. It covm the process of survey, planning, and operation, and particularly, generating effective participation from the people involved.

The aims of AIC were to involve the community to participate in identifying its problems with pride. It will make use of the capability of groups in analysing, prioritising of needs and planning to conduct activities to solve their problems. AIC stands for:

A = Appreciation means perception and admiration (with opening ears, eyes and mind), acceptance of other people’s attitudes for learning new things.

I = Influence means a tendency to persuade other people to agree with, bargain, exchange, select and set priority oni the issues being discussed or considered.

C = Control means a way to make decision, control over, and direct to the results as intended.

The advantages of AIC will be introduced by the trainers as follows:

1. It gives every one an opportunity 1.0 participate in, with an operator’s roles, problem identification, set priority, and define the appropriate ways to solve the common problems with a systematic circle understandingly.

2. It takes only two days.

3. It helps gaining various kinds of information, covering both the problems and understanding of the community context.

4. It does not take advantage from the community, because it helps training the community to think systematically with participatory planning.

Finally, the social specialist as the trainer of PRA and AIC technique for the ADB’s EGAT project evaluation will give summary and synthesis to the participants. However, in practice they should not spend more than 50 minutes conducting a focus group discussion with one villager group, and 2 hours for the whole process of PRA and AIC leading to formulation of a scenario under some certain circumstance, and implementation plan. However, every step and technique is rather flexible and relaxing and should be appropriate to the villagers and difficulty that may emerge during the operation.

APPENDIX 5-1 INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS ON POWER PLANT AIR POLLUTION CONTROL

-~ @ MWH Final Report Page AS-1-1 MoNTwwzI1yW~TSONHANI APPENDIX 5-1 INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS ON POWER PLANT AIR POLLUTION CONTROL

International Standards on Power Plant Air Pollution Control Different countries or cities will have different standards for controlling air pollution from power plants. Invariably, however, strong emphasis is often placed on the practicability of a power plant in achieving certain air pollution control standard. Hence, different power plants in the same country or city are often given different standards to comply. This is because once a power plant has been designed and operating for years, it would be very difficult for the power plant to achieve substantial improvement in the air emission performance. Time, major engineering as well as power supply ;security considerations are required for modifications of a power plant for improved air emission performance. This can explain why in Table 5-12 that the Mae Moh Power Plant is aperating at a different standard than those which would’be required for new or other existing power plants required by the Thai Government. Apart fiom the practicability considerations, acceptability of the air pollution impact caused by a power plant will obviously bt: the most dominating factor in permitting the air emission performance of the power plant.

Sulphur oxides, nitrogen oxidesand dust particulate are the common air pollutants controlled by regulatory authority. For controlling sulphur oxides (SO,), a limit on concentration in the flue gas can be stipulated. Alternatively, a sulphur dioxide removal efliciency of pollution control equipment such as scrubber or FGD is often required and a fuel sulphur content limit is also set. The limit on sulphur oxide concentralion in the flue gas is then a direct result of the fuel sulphur content and removal efficiency. What is being practised in Mae Moh is not seen to be different to other parts of the world.

Nitrogen oxides (NO,) are controlled mainly by furnace and burner design for minimum formation of the pollutant gases. Pollution control equipment such as catalytic converters can be used to reduce the nitrogen oxide emissions iifter they are formed from combustion but they are less widespread use than the sulphur oxide control equipment. Certain operational methods may be able to reduce the NO, formation in existing boilers but they have to be considered very carefully for their possible operational constraints.

Dust particulate matter (PM) is controlled by fueI ash content as well as by pollution control equipment such as electrostatic precipitators.

The following tabulation shows a comparison of the emission standards with the European Union, US, Japan and Hong Kong with the Thai Standards for 150 MW and 300 MW units. It is seen that the Thai and Mae Moh Standard are pessimistic compared with other advanced places in the world.

APPENDIX 5-2 DISCUSSIONS ON CONTINUOUS EMISSION MONITORING

@ MWH Final Report Page AS-2-1 WMlWtWEW WArroN HARU APPENDIX 5-2 DISCUSSIONS ON CONTINOUS EMISSION MONITORING

Continuous Emission Monitoring Continuous emission monitoring (CEM) is carried out by extractive means where the flue gas is sampled from the flue gas ducts by analysers housed at convenient locations within the plant. Measurement of sulphur dioxide is carried out at the outlet from the electrostatic precipitator by ultra-violet (UV) absorption method. At the FGD outlet, measurement of sulphur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide are made by non- dispersive infia-red (NDIR) means and measurement of oxygen is by paramagnetic means. An Opacity meter, which is a double path transmissometer is also installed at the outlet of the FGD. These opacity meters for all units have always been switched off. The Consultant was advised that these meters have not been functioned properly.

The flue gas sample extraction lines are provided with heat tracing from the point of extraction to the condensation separator and then to the analysers. Primary gas standards are provided for span calibration of the analysers. According to EGAT, daily zero/span checks are carried out on the measuring analysers with multi-point calibration made every two weeks. Cleaning of the sampling line by presswised cleaning is made only when suspicious readings are found. Continuous emission monitoring data are telemetered to the FGD control room as well as to PCD. Owing to space limitations, sampling points on the flue gas ducts for the CEM are located only a short distance way from flow obstructions such as pipe bends, flow contractions or enlargements, etc. Ideally, flue gas sampling points should be as far upstream and downstream of flow disturbances to ensure that the flue gas inside the duct is practically homogeneous to allow representative samples to be extracted from a single point. According to USEPA the sampling point should be at least two duct diameters downstream and half duct diameter upstream of a flow disturbance. The sampling points for the CEM as observed on site are clearly not in fulfilment of such requirements. It is common in international practice that traverse measurement is thus made at the cross-section of the sampling points to determine the representative point for inserting the sampling probe. EGAT, however, adopted a slightly different approach as follows:

0 A sampling location is selected at the outlet duct of FGD satisfying the USEPA requirements. This location is in fact used far acceptance testing of the FGD system and is also downstream of the location for the CElM sampling.

0 Traverse measurement was then made at this location and to determine the cross-sectional average concentration of the gaseous components in the flue gas.

0 The sampling probe for the CEM was then inserted into the flue gas duct at different depths. The depth which gave sulphur dioxidie concentration closest to the cross-sectional average determined above has been adopted for CEM. This has been done at 100 percent and 70 percent loadings. Inspection of data provided by EGAT, shows that the accuracy of the measured concentration at outlet of the FGD fiom the present CEM will be within 90 percent.

The Consultant is of the opinion that, given the practical constraints, this should give the representative sampling point with acceptable accuracy for CEM of the sulphur dioxide concentration of the FGD outlet.

Final Rt:port Page A5-2-2 APPENDIX 5-2 DISCUSSIONS ON CONTINOUS EMISSION MONITORING

Discussions and Recommendations

Based on the site observation, inspection of records, and a meeting with EGAT Instrumentation Section, it is seen that the CEM have been generally carried out in a proper manner. The CEM data are also scrutinised by PCD. However, there are concerns and the following are recommended:

The CEM will be able to monitor the pollutant concentrations emitted from the power plant with reasonable accuracy but its accuracy in measuring the sulphur dioxide concentration at FGD inlet and hence the FGD sulphur dioxide removal efficiency has not been verified. The present monitoring of removal efficiency is thus an indication of its relative v&ation with time only. However, since the removal efficiency at the time of acceptance testing has already been determined by other means, and that it is the concentration of the FGD outlet which is important for environmental considerations, investment to improve the sampling point at FGD inlet is not recommended at this stage.

Regular zerohpan checks and calibration being are carried out at the moment. To improve quality assurance, it is recommended to carry out preventive cleaning of the sampling ducts at frequency of, say, once per year

The opacity monitoring should be resumed. Although opacity will not give directly dust particulate concentration in the flue gas in gravimetric units (mg/m3), it gives a good indication if there would be excessive particulate emissions. In the US, an opacity limit of 20 percent is typically adopted for power plant emission to limit the dust particulate emission. The opacity monitoring will provide information for complaint investigation, if necessary, and also help in ensuring optimum combustion condition is achieved. Given proper maintenance, double pass opacity meters have been found to be very reliable elsewhere in the world. There is a significant amount of lost data with the “on line” monitoring systems. This needs to be reduced to improve confidence in the results being obtained by the “on line” systems.

1 CURRENT PRACTICE AND STANDARDS: VIBRATION CONTROLS IN THE MINING INDUSTRY

This Appendix presents an overview on cwrent engineering practice and standards on vibration controls in the Mining Industry.

1.1 Ground Vibration

Ground vibrations are seismic movements in the ground. Blasting creates a vibration or seismic wave transmitting through surrounding solid or ground, which may cause damage to the resident constructions in the nearby area. Vibration is usually measured in the forms of peak particle velocity and displacement initiated by a vibration wave. Vibration standard used to control blasting in mining operation in Thailand is shown in Table I.

Table 1 Vibration Standard applied in Thailand

Remarks: 1) Measuring device is in accordanit with IS0 4886 2) Monitoring a) At the boundary of a mining concession b) At the outer rim of a buffer zone c) vibration measurement should be in accordant with Standard DM 4150 (Table 2 and Figure 1)

Particle velocity and displacement are induced by wave propagation through solid media. Displacement is usually measured in all directions (vertical and longitudinal).

Energy from the seismic waves is damped by distance depending on wave frequency. Highest frequency waves are damped fastest, thus, the predominant frequencies from blasting are:

0 high frequency at short distance

0 Lower frequency at longer distance

Other similar standards to DIN 4150 are Australian standard AS2187-1983 and the OSM Regulation. In AS2187-1983, a maximum allowable peak particle velocity is recommended for different types of constniction as listed in Table 3.

Blasting vibration impacts have been recorded for more than 40 years, and have been related to differing degrees of damage to residential buildings and construction types. This empirical type information presented in Table 4 is very helpful for understanding the relationship between a value of peak particle velocity and the degree of damage to structures.

It results from the fact that the sound waves from blasting moves faster than the speed of sound in air. Audible airblast is called noise while air blasts at frequency below 20 Hz., which are inaudible to human ear, are called concussions. Air blast is measured and reported as an overpressure, which is an air pressure over and above atmospheric pressure. Overpressure is usually expressed in mbar, psi or in a noise unit such as decibels (dB). Overpressure values and degree of airblast effect are illustrated in Table 5

2.1 Causes of air blast

Atlas Power Company (1987) has reviewed and described four causes of air blast as follows

APP-Air pressure pulse; produced from direct rock displacement at the face or mounding at the blasthole collar.

RPP-Rock pressure; produced from the vibrating ground.

GRP-Gas release pulse: gas escaping from the detonating explosive through rock fractures.

0 SRP-Stemming release pulse; gas escaping from the blown-out stemming.

Among the four causes, GRP and SRP are the main contributors to air blast damage and complaints. They are also the most controllable in blast design.

RPP is the first pressure to arrive at a recording station which is gemrated by the vertical components of ground motion. APP is the second pulse to arrive, via air, at the recording station. The top portion of explosive in each hole or in face holes will act as APP source. Close in to the blast, the effects of blast timii can usuraily be detected by the sharp peaks on the waveform. At large distanws or behind the face, this becomes obvious because of a loss in high frequencies.

@ MWH Find Report Page A8-2-6 ~w4lwNHuu APPENDIX 8-2 CURRENT PRACTICE AND STANDARDS VIBRATION CONTROLS IN THE MINING INDUSTRY

Bauer et al. (1 978) has listed elements and conditions that can enhance the above four main causes of air blast as follows.

0 Detonating cord trunk lines and downlines;

0 Lack of proper stemming materials;

0 Inadequate stemming height;

0 Overdug or overloaded fiont row of holes in premature burden movement;

0 Drill patterns too small or large;

0 Delay sequence;

0 Atmospheric conditions;

0 Secondary blasting;

0 Gas escape through fractures;

0 Mud seams providing an easy path for explosive gases into air at fiee surface;

2.2 Psycho-physiological response of air blast and vibration

Atlas Powder Company published a discussion concerning psychophysiological response of humans to air blast and vibration in 1987. Stated causes of complaints involving vibration and air blast are mainly due to the annoyance effect, fear of damage, and the startling effect rather than actual damage. The human body is very sensitive to low vibration and air blast levels, but unfortunately it is not a reliable damage indicator. Air blast levels of over 120 dBL will produce some degree of annoyance and fright. Thus, in some cases psychophysiological perception of the blast is more important than numerical values of the ground vibration and air blast.

@ MWH Final Report Page AIO-1-1 ~wAlsmm4u4 APPENDIX 10-1 DOCUMENTARY REVIEW OF PREVIOUS STUDIES ON SOCIAL ISSUES

The establishment of the Mae Moh Power Plant and Mine will inevitably have an impact on the local environmental and social conditions, both positively and negatively. The negative impacts will need to be minimised. In terms of the impact on quality of life, several previous studies have been carried out and these reviewed in this section.

According to the UN-ESCAP definition, the term quality of life may refer to the state of the villagers and their communities in terms of health, knowledge, employment, life and assets, social opporhmity and equity. However, the Office of the National Economic and Social Development Board of the Thai Government (ONESDB, 1996) has developed a set of six indicators of quality of life. These are:

The fundamental infrastructure indicator, consisting of seven issues - land right documentation; electricity; communications; community business; wood for fuel and general usage; animal for work; and rights to work in the villagers’ own lands.

The products, income and employment indicator, consisting of nine issues - occupation and employment; wages; farm produce; orchard produce; other occupations; migration for work opportunities; farmers’ grouping; loan sources for production; and dry season cultivation. The public health and sanitation indicator, consisting of seven issues - public health service within the village; nursing and medical care; housing sanitation; health and sanitation; weights of newly born infants; lack of nutritious substances; and family planning. The water sources indicator, consisting of four issues - clean water; drinking water sources; water usage; and water for agriculture. The education and culture indicator, consisting of seven issues - educational qualification of the people; enrolment rate; government’s educational provision; knowledge provision on quality of life:, community learning places; information service places; and religious, cultural and sport activities.

The noltural resources and environment indicator, consisting of three issues - forestry, soils, and water.

These six indicators have been applied nationally to investigate the quality of life level of every Thai village every five years. The information presented in this study are the results of studies of Mae Moh villages, which were carried out in 1996 by the Office of the Mae Moh District Community Development. Current data was collected in early 2001 but has not yet been published.

Although there is no distinct boundary between social and other aspects of actual village life, this social survey of quality of life in Mae Moh villages focussed on three related social aspects:

(a) product, income and employment (b) public health and sanitation (c) education and culture.

Final Report Page AlO-1-2 APPENDIX 10-1 DOCUMENTARY REVIEW OF PREVIOUS STUDIES ON SOCIAL ISSUES

The findings of this study are reproduced in Tables 1 to 5. In these tables, the development level or the quality of life that is above average is assigned the number 3, an average is assigned the number 2, and below average assigned the number 1. The other numbers under the three related social aspects represent each issue of the quality aspect’. Therefore the quality of life of the twelve sampled villages of this social survey could be described under the development conditions of their sub-districts as follows:

Mae Moh sub-district has 7 villages. Its average quality of life under 6 aspects was found to be above average. The sample of this social study, Huai Pet, and Hang Hung villages were assigned an above average quality of life, while Huai King’s quality was average. The three villages shared the same problems in educational issues - the government’s provision of knowledge and education, and knowledge provision on life quality. Hang Hung had problems of land right documentation, nursing and medical care, and water for agriculture, while Huai Pet had problems in farm and orchard produce, and nursing and medical care. Moh Luang village’s life quality was above average (Table 1).

Nearly half of Jang Nua sub-district’s indicators of life quality were below average. These were the land right documentation, community business, housing sanitation, weights of newly born infants, clean water, using water, and cultural and sport activities. For Pong Tan, the sample village, quality was below average, while Tan and Kor Ruag villages were average. The social issues that were below average consisted of wages, orchard produce, housing sanitation, weights of newly born infants, and religious, cultural and sport activities. Pong Taen village had serious problems in occupation and employment, farm and orchard produce, dry season cultivation, most public health, educational qualification level, knowledge provision for life quality, and appropriate activities for cultural an sports. In addition, water for agriculture was the core problem of most villages in this sub-district, except in Na Chae village (Table 2).

(c) Na Sak sub-district’s life quality was average. Only one social issue was found to be below average - knowledge provision for life quality. Mae Jang and Sob Jang, the sample villages of this social study, had average life quality. The two villages faced problems of occupations, migration for job findings, dry season cultivation, weights of newly born infants, educational qualification level, and low enrollment rate of schooling children (Table 3). Three out of seven portions of Ban Dorig sub-district’s life quality were below average. Lack of water for agriculture was ti serious problem in every village. Hua Fai and Ta Si, the sample of this social study, had average life quality. The social issues below average consisted of occupations, migration to find jobs, dry season cultivation, weights’ of newly born infants, and knowledge provision for life quality (Table 4).

(d) Two out of three portions of the Sob Pad sub-districts had below average life quality. The social indicators of Sob Pad and Pong Ton Pin, the sample villages of this social study, indicated their life quality to be below average. These were occupation and employment, farm produce, occupations, migration to find job, dry season cultivation, nursing and medical care, weights of newly born infants, and knowledge provision for life quality (Table 5).

Final Report Page AIO-1-7 APPENDIX 10-1 DOCUMENTARY REVIEW OF PREVIOUS STUDIES ON SOCIAL ISSUES

When comparing the average criteria of the ONESDB’s indicators with othm related research and documents, the fmdings Erom the previous studies (focusing on employment, health, and education) may be summarised as follows:

The Mae Moh district population is 39,168 from 12,543 households, and is administratively divided into 5 sub-districts, namely, Mae Moh, Ban Dong, Sob-Pad, Na-Sak, and Jang-Nua. About 67% (the majority) of the population is OF a workforce age (15-60 years old), 24.15% are children (between 0-14 years old), and about 8.37% (or the smallest proportion) are the aged (over 60 years old). About 50% of the district population resides in Mae Moh sub-district where the EGAT Power Plant is situated.

According to the Government life quality criteria, family sanitation is generally good, but their health is not as good as it should be. A number of reports indicated that: (1) the death rate increased from 6.33% in 1997 to 8.74% in 1998, while the birth rate reduced, resulting in a nett population increase of 0.36% over this period; (2) there was an increasing incidence of patients sueering from bronchitis, particularly in Mae Moh sub-district. The number of patients with respiratory tract infection increased from 480.55 (for 1,000-population ratio) in 1995 to 582.86 in 199t12. It was also found that the highest ratio of such patients was in Mae Moh sub-district, where the power plant and some parts of the mine3 are located. In 1999, 18.63% of the patients who visited EGAT’s mobile clinic, had respiratory tract infection, and this increased to 37.20% during October 1999 - January 2000. The ONESDB’s report (2001: 30) reported that there was an increased rate of 40.90% of such infections among patients who came to the EGAT’s medical service unit in 2001. A comparative three years study (cited in ONESDB, 2001: 30) indicated that there was no significant difference in (lung) pulmonary function development among 8-13 years old students in Mae Moh, Muang Pam,and Muang districts. There was no significant correlation between their pulmonary function capacity and the changing levels of sulphur dioxide, but the dust level (PM-10) had had an effect.

Psychological effects related to the villagers’ chronic hedth problems were found among the villagers, particularly, the elderly and housewives. They (particularly, the people in Hang Hung, Huai Pet, Sop Moh, Huai King, and Hua Fai villages) did not trust the FGD system, dust prevention and control systems, time allocated to mine blasting, the water supply system, and potential flooding from the reservoirs. Surveys conducted by the Social-cum-Public Participation Specialist confirm& this psychological effect as well as the concern of water pollution from the ash water lake and recirculation system near power plant unit 4-1 3. Ban Hua Fai villagers were also concerned about landslides and sulphur dioxide from settling ponds and dump sites.

This increasing number appears to be higher than that of the whole Lsmpang province, where the ratio of patients with, respiratory tract infection was 43040 per 1,000 people during the same period. The patients with respiratory tract infection in Mae Moh subdistrict alone increased from 560.42 per 1,000 people in 1995 to 739.M in 1998, and the same number again within the first half year of 1999.

Studies have been carried out on the impact on the standard of educational of the Power Plant and Mine. It was found that twenty-seven primary and secondary schools, one public library and one informal education centre may have been affected by the Plant and Mine operations. A number of teachers and students from 12 schools (or 44 per cent of all schools) were reported to have contracted common colds, bronchitis and respiratory tract infections. Some teachers were reported to have lost their sensitivity to odour (cited in ONESDB, 2001: 30). An interview by the Consultant with the head of the district primary education office indicated that some teachers had requested transfers for these reasons.

The Mae Moh economic and social structures have been affected or changed due to the establishment of the Power Plant and Mine. This establishment has forced affected people to work as labourers and daily paid employees. Although EGAT had set a condition for its contractors to employ at least 80 per cent of the labour from the local areas, the contractors still employed their labour from other districts and provinces. The main reason given was that most contractors needed people qualified in mechanical and equipment control rather than unskilled labour.

The average gross product of the district in 2000 was 28,286 million Baht per ann~m.~ Mining industry earned most (about 23.18%) of the total production, while the agricultural sector earned 11.82%, and the governmental contributed 13.57%. Some of the Mae Moh community still live a traditional way of life, relying on their traditional agricultural production and technology. Forty-four percent of the total households (5,564 households) in this district are engaged in the agricultural sector with an average annual income of 21,600 Baht per family.’ However, their incomes vary from place to place.

The Environmental and Technological Planning Division of ONESDB (1997) conducted a monitoring and evaluation of the environmental impact after the extension of Mae Moh Mine for the Power Plant units 8-9. It was found that the EGAT project impacted on the villagers’ agriculture-based and self-employed way of life. The majority of the villagers changed their occupations from farmers to labourers in the Power Plant and Mine. They also started to work for construction firms and factories. Focusing on the resettlement villages which resulted from the extension of the Power Plant units 8-9, this report concluded that the EGAT project helped to raise the villagers’ income from an average of 25,540 Baht per family before the resettlement to an average of 142,483 Baht per annum after resettlement. However, the more they earned, the more they spend on their changed modern and urban way of live.

The villages most affected by sulphur dioxide were Ban Haui Pet and Ban Hang Hung of Mae Moh sub-district, and Ban Hua Fai of Ban Dong sub-district. Ban Hua Fai village was affected by the dump site and noise from the Mine. Despite the fact that ambient air quality monitoring results showed compliance with safety standards, the

villagers may not have been able to understand the specialized nature of the air quality monitoring, the results and their significance. On the other hand, EGAT have not been able to communicate effectively with the local people on their air quality monitoring and findings.

Other research relevant to this study, was conducted in Mae Moh district during 1997-200 1. Pornperm Prommas (1997), the deputy manager of EGAT’s Health and Medical division, conducted research in 4 villages of Sop Pad subdistricts on preventive measures against health hazards caused by air pollution from the Mae Moh thermal power plant. Those villages, namely Sop Pad, Sop Toen, Mae Jang Te:ak Forest, and Sop Moh, were affected by air pollution from the Power Plant. The findings showed that about 98% of the sample population between 20-69 years old knew that air pollution eminated fiom the Power Plant and Mine. They had a good knowledge about air pollution, risk factors and preventive measures. The affected samples of different ages, occupations, and monthly income suggested different preventive measures or behaviour. Nearly 46% believed that the FGD system would help prevent air pollution, while about 43% were not sure.

Pongpreeda Yotha (1 999) conducted research in 5 sample villages of the Sop Pad sub-district on the communities’ opinions towards the measures for reducing the air pollution fiom the EGAT power plant. Those villages, namely, Sop Pad, Sop Toen, Mae Jang Teak Forest, Sop Moh and Huai Rak Mi, were identified as being affected by air pollution fiom the Power Plant. The research indicated that the people were positive about the measures implemented by the Power Plant to reduce air pollution, but suggested that no Werpower plants should be constructed in Mae Moh district. The study recommended that the Government be responsible for managing this pollution problem at the village level, and for continuously monitoring air quality.

Penprapa Siviroj and Prasit Leerapan (2000) applied a qualitative research technique to study the situations, needs and conditions of the Hang Hung villagers’ resettlement due to the impacts of EGAT’s Power Plant. They found that this village had been significantly affected by the Power Plant and Mine. The effects could be classified into 3 phases:

(a) Separation of families at the first round of part resettlement during 1986-1990 (b) Second round resettlement period awaiting resettlement causing family and community breakdown during 1990- 1995 (c) Forming of mobs for resettlement from 1995 until the present

The study accepted that the villagers’ demands for resettlement correlated with another recent study findings of a taskforce, officially appointed by the Lampang provincial governor and chaired by the vice-governor in 19966. 95% of 465 families demanded resettlement for reunion with their families, which had previously been moved. The other reasons given for resettlement were lack of farm land, water issues, pollution, inadequate communication, community separation, flooding and bush fires in the dry season. The study recommended

The ONESDB (2001) employed a study team to research the preparatory project of the operational plan for Mae Moh area’s problem solution. The general background of the Power Plant and Mine project were studied, covering the environment, land tenure, occupation, life quality, and infrastructure. Strategies were recommended such as the environmental quality development, land development, occupational and income development, life quality development, and infrastructure development. In addition, operational plans were recommended. An EGAT executive officer stated that this was the first time that a national policy-making organisation has conducted such a field study. It was hoped that it would be a first trial and pilot project.

Final Report Page AIO-2-1 APPENDIX 10-2 FINDINGS ON SOCIAL ISSUES FROM IN-DEPTH INTERVIEWS AT THE VILLAGE LEVEL

The study team conducted individual interviews, in combination with focus group interviews with key participants, community leaders and villagers in 12 villages. This Appendix summarises the findings.

1. Changes in Living Conditions after the establishment of the EGAT’s Plant and Mine

The respondents of the study reported both positive and negative changes to their communities as a result of the establishment of the EGAT’s Power Plant and Mine in Mae Moh. The positive changes were mostly related to the assistance provided by EGAT in terms of financial assistance, infrastructure, such as construction of roads in and among the villages, convenience in communication and transportation, the availability of vocational promotion funds, and school-bus services.

The negative changes were mostly related to he:alth problems caused by sulphur dioxide, odour and blasting. Shortages of water due to the damming of streams and rivers to construct EGAT’s reservoirs, contaminated water or poor quality of water, and low productivity of crops were among the issues raised by the respondents as negative impacts resulting Erom establishment of the plant. Lifestyles have also changed from a reliance on agriculture and animal husbandry to employment-related activities.

By and large, both the positive and the negative impacts are similar for most villages. Specific impacts in each sampled community as described below.

Hang Hung

The Plant employs about thirty percent of the people in Hang Hung village. The community also receives financial support from EGAT in the form of funding for local development, financial support to construct schools and temples, and scholarships for students. EGAT also offers a bus service to transport students to and from schools.

The people in this village complained that they have faced substantial environmental effects. There has been an abundance of dust that caused breathing problems, and odour has been detrimental to their health. The noise and vibrations from blasting and machines have cracked walls, ceilings and window panes. Contaminated water, polluted air and poor soil quality are other environmental impacts that are mentioned. There are also a number of health problems, such as bronchitis, skin disease, calculus, chronic sinus, stuffy noses and dizziness, which are believed to be caused by the operations of the plant. In addition, the community believe that flash flooding which damaged their property was caused by the release of water kmEGAT’s reservoirs during he:avy rains. During mid-August, there was a high flood in Hang Hung and other villages when the water was released by EGAT’s reservoir controllers.

Mae Jang

People reported that EGAT has extended assistance to the people in the areas through educational assistance, a bus service to transport student to and fiom schools, a fhd for improving the quality of life and occasional medical services in the village.

@ MWH Final Report Page AIO-2-2 yMRooyEMwA~wuu APPENDIX 10-2 FINDINGS ON SOCIAL ISSUES FROM IN-DEPTH INTERVIEWS AT THE VILLAGE LEVEL

On the negative side, there has been a considerable reduction in agricultural productivity. People have to change their jobs to unskilled contract labourers. A number of people in the village have developed breathing problems resulting fiom sulphur dioxide. Natural water, such as rain cannot be consumed because of sulphur dioxide contamination. Blasting is carried out in the nearby hills, particularly in the morning and in the evening.

Sob Jang

People in Sob Jang village reported that EGAT has employed some people fiom the community to work in the plant. EGAT also provided financial support for the construction of the community temple and school, as well as for the formation of occupational groups, such as weaving and mushroom growing. Medical services to the community and educational scholarships for children are also made available for the villagers.

On the negative side, environmental problems have developed, especially air pollution and contamination of water. A number of people in the community have developed breathing problems and skin rashes. Agricultural production has been decreasing. People have observed that the average life span of the people in the village has been reducing.

Kor Ruak

The positive aspects of the plant are that they have created some jobs for the people in the community by contractor companies of the Power Plant and Mine. EGAT has promoted vocational groups, sports and physical education, provided medical services, and transportation for children to and from schools. The plant provides vehicles (on request) for study trips when these are arranged by the community. In addition, EGAT plans to assist the community in its restoration of the local road which connects Kor Ruak with other villages.

There have also been some undesirable changes. Agricultural production has been decreasing and there is a shortage of water for agriculture. Rain water cannot be consumed even after boiling, as the smell still exists. With regard to health problems, a number of people suffer from bronchitis, skin rashes, frequent headaches and shortage of breath. Those who have lived in the village for a long time often feel dizzy. Transportation to the village is inconvenient. Although the Rural Rapid Development Department has offered to reconstruct the road, the people believe that EGAT is opposed to this reconstruction because it plans to expand the mine.

Pong Ton Pin

Some people are employed by EGAT to work in the area. EGAT also provides financial assistance to the community in the form of scholarships for students, a piped village water system, and development funds.

However, the establishment of the Power Plant and Mine has caused health problems, water shortages due to construction of the reservoirs and damming of the natural waterways, destruction of agricultural products, and work insecurity.

@ MWH Final Report Page A1 0-2-3 MONTGOMERY WAlSCW HARZA APPENDIX 10-2 FINDINGS ON SOCIAL ISSUES FROM IN-DEPTH INTERVIEWS AT THE VILLAGE LEVEL

Sob Pad

The positive changes in Sob Pad village are similar to those of other villages. Financial support to promote occupational groups, development funds, scholarships to students and medical services are provided by EGAT.

Villagers identified the negative changes as the destruction of natural resources, declining agricultural production, water shortages, health problems and the lack of unity among people in the same village.

Hua Fai

In addition to similar financial assistance offered to other communities, EGAT has also helped the village to improve the environment, for instance the growing of tree shelters around the village.

The negative changes are essentially related to the deterioration of the environment, low agricultural productivity, poor water quality and health problems.

A group of change agents in this village has formed close ties with a NGO.

Thasi

EGAT has provided assistance such as promotion of occupational groups, development funds, scholarships for students and the reconstruction of the village roads.

The establishment of the Plant has caused health problems and the loss of crops and animals, water shortages and has reduced the self-suaciency of the people.

Huai King and Huai Pet

Compared to other villages, a number of people: in Huai King and HI.& Pet villages are employed by EGAT as unskilled workers. Villagers have also been employed by EGAT’s contractor companies. To some extent, EGAT has provided assistance to the people in these villages. EGAT has improved the road system and travelling is now more convenient. Villagers employed by EGAT have made a financial contribution to the economy. Their greater affluence has resulted in greater spending and circulation of money in the communities. The standard of housing hras improved from traditional materials to concrete. EGAT has promoted occupational opportunities for women and young people and has installed instruments to measure sulphur dioxide levels in the villages.

In terns of negative change, the two communities share the same problem of water shortages. The impact of pollution on the villages is quite strong. The people complain of irritating smells of sulphur dioxide. Dust and vibrations from explosions have also affected the people. Most households have to buy drinking water.

@ MWH Final Repoort Page A 10-2-4 -WAflDNW(UA APPENDIX 10-2 FINDINGS ON SOCIAL ISSUES FROM IN-DEPTH INTERVIEWS AT THE VILLAGE LEVEL

Tan and Moh Luang

The villages of Tan and Moh Luang share similar problems to those of other villages, both negative and positive. However, the villagers do not believe the health and pollution problems to be as serious as those facing the people in Hang Hung and Huai King.

2. The Impact of the Power Plant and Mine

Most of the villages surveyed reported some degree of impact on their living conditions and agricultural production. Specific impacts on each village are summarised in the following table which ranks the perceived severity of the impact. (1 = most affected to 6 = least affected).

Others

!emarks Tan and Moh Luang villagers reported fewer effects than other villages in the study. This is probably due to the fact that Tan village is situated further from the Plant and Mine than the other villages, and Moh Luang has already been relocated to a new location about 15 kilometers from the former village site. In terms of health problems, most people reported breathing problems, bronchitis, immune deficiency, chronic colds, runny noses and skin irritations as most serious problems (in that order).

3. Changes in Village Life

Based on the above and separate interviews with the key participants, the establishment and operation of the Power Plant and Mine has resultecl in changes in lifestyles from rural to sub- urban or urban ways, occupations, values, sanitation, health, and educational quality. Such changes are elaborated in the following paragraphs:

Geographical changes have been experienced in terms of roads, land use, telephone and other communication systems, water flows directions in the local rivers and streams, reservoir construction, settlement of villages, and the location of government administrative centers and service offices. Most acknowledged the improvement in income and land development, better access to government services and marketing services, better medical and sanitation servjces, schooling quality, and communication between communities.

Geographical changes have had various cultural and social impacts. For example, before the construction of the Power Plant and Mine, the indigenous people lived along the streams and rivers, relying mostly on forest and bush produce and products, earning their living on a self-reliant principle and assisting each other as family and village members. The social structure of their cornunities consisted of a kinship, peer group system and extended families. A high degree of respect for seniority existed. There was limited migration of the population, as there was sufficient land for farming and the community was self-sufficient. Money was not the main reason for earning a living since they could catch fish from the rivers and streams and find food from the forest and bushes.

After construction of the Power Plant and ]Mine, EGAT's damming of the streams and rivers reduced the natural water flow available to the communities. Furthermore established pathways were flooded. Consequently, the diversion and damming of watercourses changed the living patterns of the villagers.

The reduction of land tenure and available fannland forced the majority of the people to work as unskilled labours in EGAT's power plant and mine, in ceramic factories and on construction sites. Land use has been a major problem among the villagers in this area'. The villagers are aware of the environmental hpacts on their water sources, livestock, produce and health. Both positive and negative attitudes exist.

The villagers regarded EGAT's Community Development Project as a tool to bridge the communication gap between EGAT, the local authority and community members,

' Interviews with the Mac Moh disttia chief, forestry D~%CW,and community development ofl[icer, revealed that land use in the Mae Moh anas could bc classified into three different groups. The first group could be mgarded as the communities and farmlands prior to the estab1ishme:nt of the EGAT project. This group could also be divided into 3 sub-groups - the native people's community mas, deforestation areas, and mifpation areas. The migrants arc those people who have been working with the Farcstry Industry Organization, and some arc from other provinces and regions following work with the EGA1" project and contractor firms. The second group, which occupied the majority of the land, arc located in the national fomrt conservation areas under the responsibility of the Royal Fofcstry Department. The third group, consiaaing of 22.83 per oent of the whole Mac Moh district aria, has been permitted by the Royal Fortstry Department for EGAT's project. It is to be noted that the whole district anas are 860.44 square kilometers or 537,775 Rai, while the EGAT project contained slightly over 122,000 Rai (ONESDB,2001 : 2,22).

@ MWH Final Reiprt Page AIO-2-6 hKwmowwwAmnMzA APPENDIX 10-2 FINDINGS ON SOCIAL ISSUES FROM IN-DEPTH INTERVIEWS AT THE VILLAGE LEVEL

and also as a means to negotiate assistance for providing equipment, road construction and repairs, support for community development and participation by the people.

(f) Negative feelings from the villagers towards the Power Plant and Mine are based on environmental and resettlement issues, particularly, in Hang Hung, Hua Fai, Huai King, Sop Pat, and Huai Pet villages. Jang Nua villagers complained about noise from mine blasting, and also about a private company’s gravel mining. Collectively, most villagers understood that once development and modernisation reached their communities, there would be socio-economic and cultural changes. The above information can be swnmarised as follows:

1. The villagers acknowledge that their family income has increased following the establishment of the EGAT project.

2. Land tenure is the main problem for the villagers.

3. Infrastructure is adequate, with the exception of water supplies in the village areas.

4. Environmental management is regarded as EGAT’s responsibility and this has been a major problem. Environmental impacts are identified as a psychological, social, and health effects.

5. The villagers perceive the benefit gained from EGAT’s Power Plant and Mine in the same way as the village leaders.

The current findings of the field survey and reviews of the previous studies can be interpreted that EGAT operations have changed the communities’ way of life, both positively and negatively. These changes have particularly affected the original natives of Mae Moh. The changes had a “chain effect”. Mobility of the villagers appeared to be high, and will have a tendency to increase after the resettlement demands of the Hang Hung villagers are officially accepted. This study forecasts that after the resettlement of Hang Hung village, other villagers will become the next target of such resettlement movements. These are Huai King, Hua Fai, Huai Pet, Sop Pad, and very likely Jang. EGAT has to be aware of these pressures and should attempt to solve the existing environmental issues, and communicate with the communities in an understanding and sensitive manner.

APPENDIX 10-3 NOTES OF INTERVIEWS WITH EGAT ON THE WATER SUPPLY ISSUE

@ MWH Final Report Page A10-3-1 MONIUOUlSVWA~IMWA APPENDIX 103 NOTES OF INTERVIEWS WITH EGAT ON THE WATER SUPPLY ISSUE

In response to the villagers’ claims of water shortages caused by EGAT by building dams and reservoirs to reserve water for the Power Plant and Mine, EGAT was interviewed on 17 September 2001 at their Mae Moh ofice.

EGAT acknowledge that before the Mae Moh Power Plant, villagers obtained water from the natural streams. However, EGAT reported that dwing the months of February, March and April, the streams were usually dry and that the villagers were not able to obtain water from them.

EGAT further advised that after the dam construction, water has been supplied to the villagers in three ways:

(a) Overflows from dams to canals for irrigation purpose

(b) Pipelines from the reservoirs (constructed by EGAT) to provide water for washing and cleaning. This water may be boiled for drinking purposes. Water trucks are provided when the pipes break, or during maintenance.

(c) Drinking water is available at the EGAT Power Plant where villagers may obtain high quality drinking water.

EGAT therefore consider that they have improved the water supply situation by providing water all year round. Villagers could now grow crops even in the winter months, which they could not do previously.

Villagers have complained about water shortages from the piped supplied mentioned in (b) above. EGAT advised that they have increased ithe hours of operation of the water pumps from 6 a.m. - 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. - 10 p.m. In addition they plan to upgrade the water pumps to allow continuous 24 hours per day operation of the pumps to resolve these issues. EGAT provides this water free of charge for the first 100 litredperson/day but charges slightly more than 2 Bahts per cubic metres above this initial 100 litre limit. It was advised that in 1998 the Government applied a policy to charge for the use of water fiom the reservoirs. Therefore, even if the Mae Moh Power Plant did not exist, ithe villagers would not have free irrigation water fiom the canals. At the moment, EGAT is paying the water charge to the Government for water drawn hmthe Keelom Dam. The charge rate from the Keelom Dam is 0.5 Bahts per cubic metre for non-agricultural use and 5 Bahts per year per Rai (i.e. 400 cubic metres) for agricultural use.

The drinking water mentioned in (c) above is provided free of charge.

Recommendations

EGAT’s intentions to improve the pumped water supply system is to be commended. It is therefore required:

- To expedite the upgrading of the pumps and pipes to rninimise water supply shut down.

- To have continued dialogue With the local on the upgrading work

@ MWH Final Report Page A 10-3-2 MON7WMRYWAmWUU APPENDIX 10-3 NOTES OF INTERVIEWS WITH EGAT ON THE WATER SUPPLY ISSUE

- To publicise the piped water supply and water truck services widely in the villages affected by water shortages, providing clear details of accessibility, timing, locations and charges for these services.

- To publicise such matters through the local government channels, the local sub- district authority, and through the monthly meeting of village and sub-district headmen in the Mae Moh district. Leaflets and loud speakers (which are currently available in almost every village) should also be used.

- To provide information about water quality, and how to treat it safely for consumption.

Mae Moh Power Plant

FIRST STEP: Select the literature. In this case we used a study by ESEERCO (1 995) which estimated unit damage values by emissioii and area.

Dollar per ton per 1,000 person unit damage values for power and energy projects

Emission

SECOND STEP: Adjust the literature based on localized information. In this case, the following information was used.

US per capita 1992 GNP I 22,000 ($1992) I

Using this information, the values were first brought to 2000 prices using US GNP growth. Thus with a growth of two percent. Note that the Thai per capita GNP (in PPP) is 14 percent of US per capita GNP. Hence the value used for the analysis becomes 0.0277 for the local low value of PMlo. Hence the relevant figures become:

Dollar per ton per 1,000 person unit damage values for power and energy

Emissions

THIRD STEP: Another required adjustinelit is population. The project site population is given in the table below.

(3 MWH Final Report Page A I 1-2-2 MONTGOMERY WATSON HARZA APPENDIX 11-2 STEPS IN BTM

Thus multiplying the last two tables generates the coefficients to be multiplied to the estimated emissions which is escalated based on population and income growths and adjusted via the standard conversion factor.
