i\ 1.0 General

1.1 Construction background and project origin

Ningbo City is city specifically designated in the state plan and a coastal city opening to the outside world. It is one of the cities whose economic activities are flourishing and rapidly developing currently in China. Statistics shows that in the first half of 2004, Ningbo City completed a total output value of 97,230,000,00OYuan, increasing 16.1 % compared with the same period of previous year; completed general fiscal budgetary revenue of 17,600,000,00OYuan, increasing 7.4% compared with the same period of previous year; realized self-supported accumulative total export import volume of 11,930,000,000USD, increasing 40.5% compared with the same period of previous year; newly approved of 583 foreign invested projects, increasing 1.6% compared with the same period of previous year; introduced foreign investment, through contract, of 2,297,000,000USD, increasing 39% and actually introduced foreign investment of 1,025,000,000USD, increasing 25%; Ningbo Port realized more than I l0,000,000t cargo handling capacity and 1,801,000 standard container handling capacity; early rice planting area was 220,000 hectares, increasing 27.8% compared with the same period of previous year; animal husbandry and fishery also maintained relatively good growing trend.

Ningbo City is in the center section of Chinese Mainland coastline on the banks of the in northeast Province. The whole city governs Xiangshan and Ninghai counties and three county-level cities of , Cixi and Fenghua. The city has six urban districts including Haishu, Jiangdong, Jingbei, Zhenhai, Beilun and Yinzhou. Its total area of administrative region is 9,365km2 including urban area of 2,560km2 and built-up urban area of 127km2. Its total population is 5,960,000 people including actual resident population of 1,940,000 in the planned urban range and actual resident population of 1,204,500 in the existing built-up area of the central city.

According to Ningbo City's urban planning in 2001-2020, the central city of Ninbo will have Sanjiang area (including Ying County central area), Zhenhai area and Beilun area as the center and Cixi area and Yuyao area as the subcenter to form a double-center structure. The central city will has a population of 2,500,000 to 3,000,000 people and its use of land will reach 250-300km 2 . The planning also defines that the near-term target for the central city of Ningbo in 2005 will be continuing to widen city .frame and enlarge city size according to the requirement of "scale enlargement, function completion, environment optimization and grade increase". Within outer ring road of Sanjiang area will be mainly for the third industry and living and residence; in east region, mainly science and education will be developed to form a high grade ecological new zone; in south region, i.e. Yinzhou central area, mainly urban infrastructure will be perfected to build new urban area; in west region, the pollution-free Class I and II industnes and residential community will be properly developed; in north region, cultural tourist zone will be built to complete cultural tourist function. Zhenhai will be built into an ecological yarden urban area to develop and construct the higher education park in the north of Ningbo City; Beilun region will further optimize its layout to complete urban function and lay a solid foundation for it to build in a new urban area with a population of over 500.000 people.

With high-speed economic growth of Ningbo City, rapid increase of urban population and increasingly acceleration of urbanization step. the situation of relatively background urban infrastructural construction in Ningbo City becomes apparent all the more, particularly insufficient urban water supply ability and seriously aged 3 pipe network etc. At present, water supply in the central urban area reached 861,000m /d in 2003, but total design ability of water works is only 820,000m 3/d. Designed water supply ability can no longer meet the demand of current water utilization and even no longer meet the need of rapid urban development of Ningbo City. The result is that water works can only operate under overload at present, which has caused urban water supply safety not to be guaranteed, supply water quality of water works to decrease and difficulty of management dispatch to increase. Therefore if new water supply project is not built, the problem of insufficient water supply in Ningbo City will further become serious and even seriously hinder economic development and improvement of the people's quality of life.

In order to strengthen urban infrastructural construction, implement river network water pollution prevention and control plan and improve the ecological environment in river network and offshore area, Ningbo City will implement the "Blue Sky, Green Water, Green and Clean" project in the whole city in the Tenth Five Year Plan period, where Green Water project mainly includes construction of urban wastewater treatment plants in all counties (cities) and districts and water environment treatment for pollution waters etc, to mitigate and eventually resolve the problem of regional water source shortage.

For the above reasons, Ningbo Municipal Government decides to utilize World Bank loan program to complete "Ningbo Water Enviromnent Project". The planned project aims at improving citizens' water supply and industrial water utilization environment, complete urban infrastructure, improve urban residents' quality of life and meet the demand of rapid urban econormic development by increasing clean water and wastewater treatment scale and improving water quality. This project has been listed in the planned optional projects of World Bank loan in 2004-2006 financial years and approved by the State Council. At present its feasibility study report has been completed in August 2004 by Shanghai Municipal Engineering Design Institute and Zhejiang Provincial Survey & Design Institute Of Water Conservancy & Hydropower. The project consists of two sub-projects:

A. Multiple schemes are adopted to enlarge and adjust Ningbo City Urban Water Supply System. It is called Ningbo Zhougongzhai (Jiaokou) Reservoir Water Diversion and Urban Water Supply Ring Network Project and is hereinafter referred to as "Ningbo Water Supply Project";

B. Enlarge pipe network and wastewater treatment ability in Cixi region. It is called Cixi City Urban Wastewater Treatment Phase I Project and is hereinafter referred to as "Cixi Wastewater Treatment Project".

For Ningbo City World Bank loan water environment project, National Development and Reform Commission(NDRC) approved the project initialization (Loan project No. X040000303003, see appendix 1) On June 14. 2004 in its document FGTZ(2004)No.1 101 "Official and written reply of National Development and Reform Commission about the project proposal of Ningbo CQty's utilizing World Bank loan to construct water environment". In May 12-20, 2004, World Bank Project Authentication Group examined the feasibility study report of Ningbo water environment construction project as well as relevant environmental protection, migration and special financial report and submitted and formed memorandum of authentication.

In accordance with the regulation of the -'Notice about strengthening the environmental impact assessment management work for international financing institution loan construction project" (HJ( 19931No.324) and with reference to the requirement of World Bank environmental impact assessment operation policy (OP4.01), World Bank loan "Ningbo City Water Environment Project" belongs to the loan project of Class A environmental impact 2 assessment and needs to compile environmental impact report. Whereas water environment project involves water supply and water discharge and they are in different locations, in order to accelerate project progress and improve environmental impact assessment quality, Ningbo City World Bank Office and specific undertaking organizations of Ningbo Water Supply Company and Cixi City Urban Water Discharge Co. Ltd respectively entrusted, in January 2004, Chinese Research Academy of Environmental Sciences and Ningbo Environmental Protection Science Research & Design Institute to undertake the environmental impact assessment work of Ningbo Water Supply Project-subproject of Ningbo City Water Environmnent Construction Project by utilizing World Bank loan, entrusted Beijing Yongxin Environmental Protection Co. Ltd to undertake the environmental impact assessment work of Cixi Wastewater Treatment Project-Ningbo City Water Environment Construction Project by utilizing World Bank loan, and entrusted Chinese Research Academy of Environmental Sciences and Ningbo Environmental Protection Science Research & Design Institute to be responsible for compilation of the general environmental impact assessment report for Ningbo City Water Environment Construction Project by utilizing World Bank loan. According to Environmental Impact Assessment Outline and GHPGG[2004] No.196 "Evaluation suggestions on the environmental impact assessment outline of Ningbo City Water Environment Construction Project by Utilizing World Bank Loan" issued by Environmental Engineering Assessment Center of State Environmental Protection Administration (September 2004), the "Enviromnental Impact Report of Ningbo City Water Environment Construction Project by utilizing World Bank Loan and Ningbo City Zhougongzhai (Jiaokou) Reservoir Water Diversion and Urban Water Supply Ring Network Sub-Project" (for examination) has been compiled and completed and evaluated by experts on November 22, 2004. According to minutes of the technical evaluation meeting for the environmental assessment report, the "Environmental Impact Report of Ningbo City Water Environment Construction Project by Utilizing World Bank Loan and Ningbo City Zhougongzhai (Jiaokou) Reservoir Water Diversion and Urban Water Supply Ring Network Sub-Project" (for approval) has been revised and is hereby submitted to the Builder who will report it to competent environmental protection departments at various levels for approval.

1.2 Project undertaker and necessity and significance of project construction

1.2.1 Project undertaker

Project undertaker: Ningbo Water Supply'Company

Ningbo Water Supply Company owned a fixed asset of 160,000,OOOYuan at the end of 2001. Its daily water supply capacity has reached 820,000t and It has five water purification plants distributed in five districts. It has 1057krn over-DN100umn water supply pipe and 120km water diversion pipe (DN800-1600mrn). Water supply population is 1,250,000, water supply rate in urban area is 100% and it has more than 1,261 employees-

Ningbo Water Supply Company is a registered economic entity of independent accountability, full financial responsibility and autonomous management and has independent corporate capacity. 1.2.2 Significance and necessity of project construction

For Ningbo City, construction of Ningbo City Zhougongzhai and Jiaokou Reservoir water diversion and urban water supply ring network project is of great significance and is very necessary for the following reasons: (I) Increase supply water quantity to meet the requirement of urban construction, economic development, improvement of residents' living standard and growth of water demand.

Designed scale of water works in the central urban area of Ningbo City is 820,000m3/d. Its water supply in 2003 reached 861,000m3/d and the capacity of existing water works can no longer meet the requirement of current water demand; whereas, with urban construction of central urban area, economic development and improvement of residents' living standard, water demand of the central urban area will gradually increase and it is necessary to increase water supply capacity to meet the requiring of water demand.

According to the "General urban planning of Ningbo City (2001-2020)", the range of the central urban area of Ningbo City will be expanded on the basis of current scale. Water supply population will increase from current 1,265,000 people to 1,700,000 people in 2005 and 2,000,000 people in 2010 and urban water supply must resolve the demand of water supply quantity for the growing population.

(2) Satisfy the requirement of urban water supply range enlargement

Original Yin County of Ningbo City was established as a district in 2002 and has been incorporated in the urban range of Ningbo city. But presently in Yingzhou, most villages and towns except the central area are still supplied by respective small water works in the villages and towns and many problems exist. According to overall planning of Ningbo City and the requirement of the Municipal Government, it is necessary to gradually eliminate small water works in the villages and towns and incorporate the region of villages and towns into urban water supply scope. This work needs to be basically completed in 2010. Therefore it is necessary to build new regional intensified large scale water works and water supply system to cover this part of region and improve supply water quality so as to adapt to economic and social development in the villages and towns, promote harmonious urban and rural development, and improve the quality of residents' life in villages and towns and safeguard residents' health. When this project and Dongqian Lake Water Works are built, some water needs to be supplied to the villages and towns in east and southeast Yinzhou District to resolve the water supply problem in this region. Therefore construction of this project can improve and satisfy the water supply demand of all villages and towns in Yinzhou District.

(3) Reduce the water production of large- and medium-sized water works and improve supply water quality to meet the requirement of newly issued national standard "Sanitation Specification of Domestic and Drinking Water".

Present Jiangdong Water Works and South Suburb Water Works were built in 1960s-1970s and water purification technology and treatment facility were designed according to the then design code and water quality standard and are difficult to conform to the water quality standard of current .-Sanitation Specification of Domestic and Drinking Water". Therefore it is necessary to reduce their water production and operation index and conduct necessary reconstruction to vacate site and to plan and construct advanced treatment facility so as to make supply water quality meet the national water quality standard of "Sanitation Specification of Domestic and Drinking Water" and "Zhejiang Modernized Water Works Standard Program (Draft)"; Meilin Water Works with relatively poor water source and water quality will be rebuilt to a industrial water works to supply process water for industfial enterprises. New water works needs to fill this part of water shortage.

4 According to prediction of water demand and the supply and demand balance plan of Ningbo City, although 3 3 Beilun Water Works Expansion Project (150,000m /d) and Dongqiang Lake Water Works (500,000m /d) under construction and preparation will be put into production respectively in 2004 and 2005, the total water supply ability of water works will still be unable to meet the requirement of water demand. Therefore it is necessary to build this project.

(4) Adopt high quality reservoir water source to improve supply water quality and safeguard residents' health.

Among present urban water supply works, Ningbo Water Supply Company has four works (Meilin Water Works is planned to be rebuilt into a industrial water works and not included) plus Yinzhou Central Area Water 3 3 Works, the total water production capacity is 800,000m /d, of which 470,000m /d is Class I- II high quality water source, accounting for 59% of total capacity. Low rate of high quality water source has affected the comprehensive quality improvement of water from water works. This project will adopt water source of Zhougongzhai Reservoir and Jiaokou Reservoir whose water quality standard is class I- II. When this project is 3 built, the scale of water works adopting Class 1- II water source will reach 970,000m /d and rate of water supply capacity of water works with high quality water source will increase to 75%. When Baixi Reservoir water diversion project presently under construction is completed, this rate will increase to 83%. By then, plus advanced water purification technology, urban drinking water quality of Ningbo City will be comprehensively improved to attain the quality objective of national standard "Sanitation Specification of Domestic and Drinking Water"' and Zhejiang provincial modernized water works.

At the same time, this project will supply water to the villages and towns in the west Yinzhou Distnct to replace existing water works in villages and towns and comprehensively improve drinking water quality in this region.

Therefore construction of this project will be of great importance to the comprehensive improvement of supply water quality in cities and villages and towns and safeguard of residents' health.

(5) Increase water distribution of urban water supply from multiple water sources to improve the safety and water transfer and distribution and ensure supply water pressure of pipe networks.

Existing urban water supply and distribution system is basically divided into two networks: one is the central city (mainly are Haishu, Jiangdong and Jiangbei districts) formed by Jiangdong, West Suburb and Meilin water works. Although the water supply network of the three water works are-mutually connected, water transfer and distribution capacity of the network is not strong due to natural separation of Fenghu River, Yaojiang River and Yongjiang River. Meilin Water Works in Jiangbei District will be withdrawn from urban water supplv and distribution system after changed to industrial water works and this part of region needs to be supplied by other water works through water distribution main pipe. The other is water distribution network composed of Beilun Water Works. Although there is link between the above two water supply and distribution networks. the water transfer and conveyance is insufficient.

Therefore the transfer and conveyance capacity of existing urban water supply and distribution network is insufficient. Once a water works incurs emergency water supply cutoff, water utilization of a large area will be aftected, safety of water supply network being low. At the same time, due to increase of water utilization in the central city, pressure of water distribution pipe network decreases year after year. However as building density of the central urban area is very high and various pipelines are densely arranged under the roads, it is impossible to relocate buildings and excavate roads to lay large- and medium-diameter water conveyance and distribution main pipe. 3 For the three large scaled water works of Dongqian Lake Water Works (designed scale:500,000m /d) under 3 construction, expansion of Beilun Water Works (total scale: 300,000m /d) and the water works of this project (designed scale: 500,OOOm3/d), their locations are all on the outskirts of the city and respectively in the east, south and west of urban water supply region. No water conveyance and distribution linking main pipe is provided between the three water works and between the three water works and central city water distribution network, thus water quality can not be allotted. When one of the water works incurs emergency water supply cutoff, water supply safety will be even more seriously affected.

In summary, water supply in Ningbo City will form the pattern of the large scaled multiple source water supply and distribution in the future several years. To improve water quality allocation and transfer capacity, safeguard urban water supply safety and ensure supply water pressure, it is necessary to consider construction of large scaled water conveyance and distribution ring network main pipe besides laying necessary water distribution network.

(6) Cooperate with construction of water source construction and exert comprehensive investment benefit

The project of Zhougongzhai Reservoir used as urban supply water source has been approved by Ningbo Municipal Government and is already in the construction stage. It is planned to be completed in 2006. The total 3 storage capacity of this reservoir is 11 1,800,000m3 and effective storage capacity is 95,700,000m . It is Class I water source and water quality is excellent. This project will use the water source of Zhougongzhai Reservoir-Jiaokou Reservoir.-Therefore construction of this project will give full play to the comprehensive investment benefit of Zhougongzhai Reservoir project and use water source of high quality reservoir to improve supply water quality of Ningbo City and meet the requirement of water consumption.

In summary, to promote Ningbo City's economic and social development, enlarge water, supply scope, meet the demand of water consumption, improve supply water quality, raise the living standard of urban and rural residents in Ningbo City, ensure residents' health, increase the safety of urban water supply system and effectively exert the function and investment benefit of other construction projects, construction of this project is of great importance and is essential.

1.5 Assessment grade and scope

1.5.1 Assessment grade

(1 ) Assessment grade of surface water environmental impact

Ningbo Water Supply Project will take water of 500,000m3 /d from Ningbo Zhougongzhai Reservoir and Jiaokou Reservoir and water quality of rivers in the lower reaches will decrease to some extent. By ensuring some drainage flow, water environmental function and ecological environment of river courses will not be greatly affected. In addition, although water purification plant discharges relatively great quantity of process wastewater ( 13,900m>/dj, but the water quality is good and has small effect on wastewater receiving rivers. Therefore surface water assessment work is determined to be grade 3 according to the requirement of technical guideline of environmental impact assessment HJ/T2.3-93.

(2) Assessment grade of ambient air impact

Ambient air pollutants of the project are mainly dust nuisances produced from construction of pipes and tunnels during construction period. Additionally, water purification plant emits no waste gas pollutants under

II normal condition and only has the chlorine leakage risk from its use. Therefore ambient air impact evaluation is determined to be grade 3 according to technical guideline of environmental impact assessment HJ/T2.2-93.

(3) Assessment grade of acoustic environmental impact

Noise effect of the project mainly comes from construction machinery and traffic etc during construction period and noise after completion of the project is mainly the mechanical noise produced from operation of various equipments in the water purification plant. As most equipment is arranged in the workshop, its effect on the surrounding acoustic environment is relatively small. Therefore acoustic environmental impact assessment is determined to be grade 3 according to the regulation of technical guideline of environmental impact assessment HJ/T2.4-1995 and up-to-standard analysis at the boundary of industrial enterprises is mainly carried out.

(4) Non-polluted ecology

A small quantity of lands may be occupied during construction of pipes and tunnels and floor area of waste residues from tunnel is 61 mu. Therefore the ecological impact assessment is determined to be grade 3 according to "Technical guideline of environmental impact assessment- non-polluted ecologic impact". 1.5.2 Assessment range

Note: * refers to actual water supply quantity in 2003.

It can be concluded from table 2-2 that: (I ) From now to 2005, water supply capacity of city water works is in great shortage compared with water demand, thus some water works in villages and towns will still supply water in this period. The key emphasis in work is: first, strength water works operation management and endeavor to improve supply water quality and ensure water supply amount; second, rebuild old pipe network as soon as possible to reduce leakage loss and create conditions for next-phase city water works water supply. 3 3 (2) By 2006, Dongqian Lake Water Works of 500,000nm/d and the 250,000m /d water works of this project will be put into operation and water supply capacity and water demand will be basically balanced. Meilin Water Works will be changed into industrial water works and be removed from city water supply scope; South Suburb Water Works and Jiangdong Water Works can reduce water production; Cicheng Water Works (20,00m 3/d) will stop production; Yinzhou Central Area Water Works will stop production (this water works uses water source of Yindong River Network whose quality is poor. The water purification structure of the water works has been expanded many times and water purification technology is out of date). 3 (3) In the beginning of 2008, Phase II 250,000m /d water works of this project will be put into operation and the total water supply capacity is slightly greater than water demand, ahead to some extent. In 2009-2010, supply and demand will be basically balanced, we still have 2-3 years of development space. 2.2.2 Project scale

Smooth blasting method shall be used during construction and necessary comprehensive measure of anchor rod and screen anchoring and shotcreting shall be taken to ensure side slope stability. Argillaceous rock tends to soften when contacting water and ablate when in air. After excavation, it is necessary to spray concrete to carry out enclosed protection.

(5) To the east of hillside is ravine and ravine landfill layer shall be rolled. When rock strata in rock mass break due to slippage for example, foundation shall undergo the consolidation grouting and reinforcing treatment. 2.4.3.3 Clean water conveyance main pipe project

(1) Covering depth

Generally, covering depth above pipe top is 2.Om aud minimum covering depth meets the requirement of deep pipes. In local areas, buried depth can be reduced properly due to landform. a. Hengjiezhen section

The delivery pipeline will go through Hengjiezhen Town. According to the site investigation, there are densely distributed buildings and many ground and underground other kinds of pipelines. There are many difficulties and large amount of removing efforts have to be made for the delivery pipeline to go through the town along the main roads. To reduce relocation and construction difficulty and save project investment, field investigation is carried out in combination with this part of topographic survey map, It is primarily planed that the pipeline going along Yinheng Road will turn to north-eastern before entering Hengjiezhen Town. The pipeline will be laid along the cultivated land to Yinxian Road. This section is easy to construction with good hydraulic conditions because it will mainly laid along the cultivated land without major obstacles and small removing efforts. It is primarily planed that the. pipeline going along Yinheng Road will turn to north-eastern before entering Hengjiezhen Town. The pipeline will be laid along the cultivated land to Yinxian Road. This section is easy to construction with good hydraulic conditions because it will mainly laid along the cultivated land without major obstacles and small removing efforts.

b. Guiling Yujia Section

This section will go through Guiling Yujia Village. According to the site investigation, there are densely distributed buildings and manv ground and underground other kinds of pipelines. There are many difficulties and large amount of removing efforts have to be made for the delivery pipeline to, go through the town along the main roads It is planned to cross the village with pipe jacking in consideration with the site investigation and landform drawving. Push pipe is about 1. I S5km long.

41 (2) Across river and across road

This pipeline runs across many rivers. Three types of river pipes can be selected, i.e. river pipe bridge, river inverted siphon (pipe sinking construction) and push pipe.

In principle, the bottom elevation of pipe bridge should be kept the same with the bottom elevation of existing highway bridge. Single-span bridge should be used for narrow river course. The pipe bridge will be supported by pile frame with air discharge facilities at highest point. The standard covering soil and backfilling should be used for the inverted siphon method with strict control on construction quality.

(3) Across road

According to situation of roads along the line, the pipe runs through fewer roads. In principle, steel pipe is used to directly pass through roads. At the same time, protection shall be made for existing ground and underground structure, facilities and various pipelines.

(4) Construction drainage

Groundwater level in Ningbo region is relatively high and construction difficulty is great. According to geological situation, it is considered that well point water level reduction method be used to carry out construction drainage in the locations with poor soil quality, relatively good water permeability and easy occurrence of quicksand phenomenon. Channel drainage method is basically adopted for other locations. During construction, support and protection work for excavated channel shall be made to prevent fortuitous event such as collapse. It is recommended to try to carry out construction in dry season so as to effectively reduce construction difficulty and project cost. 2.4.3.4Urban ring network project

(1) Covering depth

Generally, covering depth above pipe top is 2.0m. In local areas, buried depth can be reduced properly due to landform.

(2) Across river

Pipeline for this project needs to run across Yongjiang River, Yuyao River and Fenghua River. According to field investigation, surface of the three rivers is relatively wide and is open to navigation. Century Avenue adopts tunnel type to cross Yongjiang River. As construction period for pipeline crossing river surface is long and will greatly affect river transportation, and additionally as navigation requirement is high and it is difficult for common flat pipe bridge to reach strength requirement, if arch pipe bridge or cable stayed bridge is used, project investment will be greatly increased and the landscape is difficult to be in harmony with the surrounding environment. Therefore push pipe is used to cross over the river. 3 ) Across railway Pipeline for this project needs to run across two railways. According to field investigation, the pipeline in Ningbo region runs across railway in the following way: provide railway department with the information on the location where pipeline runs across railway, pipe nature, diameter, buried depth and pipe material etc. Railway

42 department carries out special design and construction and fabricates and completes appropriate pipe culvert under railway for the pipeline to pass through.

(4) Across expressway

Pipeline for this project needs to run across two expressways. According to field investigation, the pipeline in Ningbo region runs across expressways in the following way: pipeline is laid near the location where pipeline runs across expressway while considering the space below overhead section of expressway to reduce the impact of pipeline construction on expressway. This project shall adopt the above method to lay pipeline in nearby expressway culvert.

(5) River pipe

This pipeline runs across many rivers. Three types of river pipes can be selected, i.e. river pipe bridge, river inverted siphon (pipe sinking construction) and push pipe. See Figure 4 (WF400W-02) for typical river pipe bridge and inverted siphon. Pipes use pipe bridge to run across river. In principle, the bottom of pipe bridge is flush with the bottom of road bridge. According to river width, single span is used to cross over small rivers. Pipe bridge is supported by pile frame and vent device is provided at the highest point. When inverted siphon is used, it is necessary to carry out pipe covering and backfilling and construction quality shall be strictly controlled.

(6) Across road

When pipeline runs across road, excavation or push pipe construction is considered. Small road adopts excavation construction and all bid roads adopt push pipe. When pipeline runs across small villages, steel pipe is used to directly pass through in principle. At the same time, protection shall be made for existing ground and underground structure, facilities and various pipelines.

(7) Across landscape

When pipeline runs across landscape, excavation or push pipe construction is considered. If landscape grade is low and destructive area is small, mobile landscape excavation construction method is used and landscape is restored after construction. For most part of landscape in Airport Road and Century Avenue, this design considers push pipe method and continuous well type is adopted for construction as this part of landscape grade is high and transplantation cost is high and excavation of some road sections is not allowed in order to ensure townscape.

(8) Construction drainage

Groundwater level in Ningbo region is relatively high and construction difficulty is relatively great. According to geological situation, it is considered that well point water level reduction method be used to carry out construction drainage in the locations with poor soil quality, relatively good water permeability and easy occurrence of quicksand phenomenon. Channel drainage method is basically adopted for other locations. During construction, support and protection work for excavated channel shall be made to prevent fortuitous event such as collapse.

(@)Construction dust nuisance nuisance Construction dust nuisance may be produced in various links of this project contraction, e.g. dust purification may be produced during construction of raw water catchment tower and tunnel and blasting of water of raw water plant; construction dust nuisance may be produced by concrete mixing station during construction and unloading *catchment tower and tunnel; construction dust nuisance may be produced during earthwork loading around the etc. If not controlled, construction dust nuisance may generate impact on the atmospheric environment construction site.

(>Construction waste gas as the Construction waste gases mainly are those produced from various construction machineries such waste gas emitted from wheel loader, dump truck and excavator.

4)Construction land and tunnel Construction land refers to temporary construction land. The construction in raw water catchment conveyance water conveyance project occupies relatively much land. Raw water catchment and tunnel water

44 project has seven construction areas and the land used for living management, auxiliary enterprise area and warehouse is 3,000m2 , 2,500m 2 and 1,200m 2 respectively.

(2Earthwork balance and excavation waste dump

During construction of raw water catchment and tunnel water conveyance project, a large quantity of earthwork may be produced and excavation waste dump is needed to store the waste residues. During construction 3 of raw water catchment and tunnel water conveyance project, total earthwork excavation quantity is 246,800m including 50,000m3 earth, 48,400m 3 open cut stone and 148,400m 3 tunnel rocks. Bulk factor for stones is 1.3 and total quantity of slag is 305,800m3, of which 195,100m3 from water inlet, Jiangao, Wangjiaao and Daoao working 3 faces is transported out and used for urban construction of Ningbo City, lO,00Om is utilized for this water diversion project and construction waste residues are 100,600m3. Table 2-5 shows the situation of the four planned excavation waste dumps.

2.5.2 Water purification plant project

(1) Analysis of pollution sources during construction period

Due to large freight volume of earth and stones in construction site of water purification plant and a large number of construction personnel, construction period mainly has the following impact on environment: ground 45 dust, construction machinery and transportation noises, wastes and domestic wastes, domestic sewage, and soil erosion caused by storm runoff etc. The condition of various pollutants produced during construction is basically the same as the nature of water catchment tower and tunnel water conveyance project.

(2) Analysis of pollution sources in operation period

Pollution source in operation period is noise source. Noise of water purification plant is mainly from water pump and transport equipment and its value is 60-9OdB (A). In addition, water purification plant may have the risk of sludge, production and domestic wastewater and chlorine and ammonia leakage.

(For sludge quantity produced from water purification plant, according to inlet water SS quantity, the designed dry sludge quantity is 17.8tid and wet sludge quantity (water content is 70%) is 59.3t/d after calculation.

(@ During production, backflush water and sludge discharging water in sedimentation tank are treated in sedimentation tank and supernatant is discharged. See figure 2-1 for treatment process. Residual water press-filtered from dewaterer will return to sludge discharging water regulating pond for circular treatment. Discharge of wastewater is about 13,900 m3/d, of which backflush wastewater is 7,900 m3/d and process wastewater discharged from sludge discharging water in sedimentation tank after concentration and dewatering is about 6,000 m3/d. Analogy investigation is made to Ningbo Beilun Water Works (with Hengshan Reservoir as water source and treatment process of water purification plant is basically the same), and the quality of discharge water after treatment of sludge discharging water in sedimentation tank is 70mg/I SS and 73mg/I COD, but backflush water is reutilized and continued to be used as source water for water purification plant. This indicates that the quality of this part of water is better than that of discharge water from sludge discharging water in sedimentation tank.

©INoise emission is mainly those generated from various pumps and air compressors etc and noise is below 8OdB(A). All noise sources are in buildings and, after sound insulation and vibration reduction, outdoor noise can be made below 6OdB(A).

(4)Domestic wastewater is mainly produced by production personnel. The water purification plant has 50 employees and discharge of domestic wastewater is 12m3/d plus discharge of wastewater from dining hall etc, and the total discharge of domestic wastewater is 30m3/d. Quality of raw discharged water is COD 350mg/A, BOD5 200 mg/I, SS 220 mg/I, and outlet water after treatment, COD< 100mg/1, BOD5<20 mg/I, and SS <70 mg/l. 2.5.3 Clean water conveyance main pipe project and urban water distribution ring network project

(I ) Analysis of pollution sources during construction period

Ground dust nuisance, construction machinery and transportation noise, waste and domestic refuses, domestic wastewater and soil erosion caused by storm flow etc; impact of construction on traffic etc. Impact of this part of construction period is far less than the impact of construction of water catchment and conveyance and water purification plant on the environment.

Clean water conveyance main pipe and urban water distribution ring network project is mainly carried out by manual excavation and is completed by top pipe construction method in the sensitive sections where pipelines runs across river and road. Solid waste produced dunng excavation is mainly earth, most of which can be leveled and afforested to basically restore the original landform.

46 However this part of construction will cause significant impact on traffic of some road sections and rational organization and design shall be carried out to rminimize this part of impact.

(2) Analysis of pollution sources during operation period

Generally, the covering earth on top of pipe is 2.0-2.5m, therefore gs long as vegetation is restored after water conveyance pipe is buried, it will have a very small impact on ecology. At the same time, due to use of gravity flow water conveyance, the main ring network project of water distribution will not generate other significant environmental pollution problems during operation.

(1) Rivers

Yongjiang water system is one of the eight bigger water systems in Zhejiang province. The Yuyaojiang and Fenghuajiang upstream of it merge into one at Sanjiangkou of Ningbo running through the Zhenhaikou along the direction of East-North to East China Sea. The main stream of Yongjiang is 26km with watershed area of 5544km2, catchment area of 4252km2 , annual total runoff volume of 3.702 billion cubic meters, river width of appr. 200- 700m, average width of 262m, average water depth of 6m, min. water depth of 2.8- 3.0m. The measured max. peak discharge is 6500m3 /s. The flow during low flow season is almost zero at some time. The runoff volumn is subject to the rainfall time. The main function of Yongjiang is navigation,discharing flood and for industrial use. Yongjiang is of the type of irregular semi-diurnal tide with the high-tide level of a-fifty-year return period of 4.96m (Wusong elevation )and the multi-yearly average high-tide level of 2.94m. The ebb tide flow at Sanjiangkou is 290-690m3 /s.lts rtnoff volumn is 10-24°% of ebb tide flow. Due to influence from the salty tide of sea, Yongjiang is considered not to be the source of drinking water.

Yaojiang is born of Xiajialin of Siming mountain and has the total length of 107.4km and watershed area of 1934 km'2. The Siminghu reservoir built upstream of it has the catchwater area of 103krii2. Yaojiang is a plain river with gently gradient ratio, low flat lanform with 3-4m elevation at both sides along the river. Before its interjunction into Yongjiang, Yaojiang gate is built to store the fresh water and prevent from access of salty water. The multi-yearly average open hours of Yaojiang gate is 700hours which is 8%of total hours. Therefore, Yaojiang almost belongs to the enclosed and semi enclosed inland river with the multi-yearly average runoff volumn of 1.096 billion cubic meters.

Fenghuajiang is one of the biggest two branches of Yongjiang. Its main stream is Jinjiang and its branches including Yanjiang. Dongjiang and Xianjiang. The main stream of Fenghuajiang is 98km long with watershed 50 area of 2590km2, catchwater area of 1965km2, multi-yearly average total runoff volumnl.299 billion cubic meters, the width of 130- 220m and average depth of Sm. Fenghuajiang has the multi-yearly average flow of 75 m3/s and the max. flood flow of 5000 m3/s. The flow during low flow period is almost zero. Generally, November, December and January are the low flow period, april and may as the level period and the rest months as the high-water period. Fenghuajiang is a tidal river with the multi-yearly average one time flood tide volumn of 7.89 million cubic meters and the ebb tide volumn of 10.91 million cubic meters. The runoff volumn only is 5 -23% of the ebb tide volumn. The salty tide will reach to the vicinity of Shiqi and Lishe of Fenghuajiang. In the dry seasons, it can reach upward to Jinjiang county, Xiaozhen county and Xiwu. Therefore, Fenghuajiang is considered not to be the main source of urban water supply.

Jinjiang is merged at Miyan with two rivulets, Dajiao and Xiaojiao. After flowing out from Jiaokou, it is called as Zhangxi rivulet running through Zhancun, Changtan, Tiandayan, Zhongyangan and Huancuntan, integrating the water from Longwang and Huanxi rivulets, passing Wutoumen, Zhongjiatan and Jinjiang county. After passing Yuetashanyan, it is called as Jinjiang, taking in the water from Qingyuan rivulet, passing eastward through Xiangyan and Bailiang bridge to Xiejiatu, finally joining the Fenghuajiang together with Yanjinag and Dongjiang. The main stream of Jinjiang is 69.4km long with watershed area of 348 km2. The Jiaokou reservoir was built upstream of it with catchwater area of 259 km2. After Jinjiang county, it is tidal section which containing fresh water at ordinary times. In severe dry year, salty tide will reach upward to the vicinity of Xiangyan.

Dongjiang originates in Bodaolingang on the sourth end of Geao township of Fenghua county, passes through Geao, Dongqiao, Xiwu and Baishe, bings into the water from Xianjiang at Fangqiao county, runs northward to Naisanjiangkou and merges with Yanjiang and flows into Fenghuajiang. The Sourth-north oriented river is with main stream of 43.8km long. The main rivulets including Zhuxi, Hengkengxi and Jinxi has the watershed area of 11-6km2. Dongjiang accesses Yinzhou from Wangdabin bridge, passing Maoshan, Chaoyang and Fangqiao to Nansanjiangkou, with the length of 8.2km, average width of 75m, average depth of 3.2m and water surface area of 0.62km2. It is a tidal river section containing fresh water at ordinary times. In severe dry seasons, salty tide will reach upward to the vicinity of Taipinggan.

Yanjinag is a main stream of Fenghuajiang; born of Sourtheastern piedmont of Xiujianshan of Siming mountain, passing through Tingxia to Gongtang, integrating the water from Kanglinxi rivulet and turning to the east, running through Xikou and Xiaozhen to the plain. From the vicinity of Jiangkou county, it accesses into Yinzhou district and reaches Nansanjiangkou through Yushan of Ningfeng township, Qianwang and Baofeng village. In which, the section from Jiangkou county to Xiawangdu is called as Huijiang, the next section between Xiawangdu and lkm from Nansanjiangkou is called as Furongjiang. The main rivuilets upstream of Yanjiang include senven rivulets that are Zuoxi, Qianzhangyan, lunxi,Kanglinxi, Yantouxi, Zhuangyuanaoxi, quanxi. The main stream before Nanshanjiangkou is 65.6 km long. The watershed area upstream of Xiaowangmiao is 445 km2. The Tingxia reservoir is built at upstream of it with the catchwater area of 176 km2. The Yanjiang section in the boundary of Yinzhou is 6km long. 78m average wide, 3m average deep and 0.47km2 water surface area. Both sides of the river are built with protective imbankment. Yanjiang is a tidal river, in dry penod; the salty tide can reach upward to Jiangkou county.

5' Xianjiang is born of the eastern piedmont of Jiufeng Mountain, passes through Dayan, Hengshan, Zhujiayan, Shangtianfan and Daqiao County to the north of Yuelinsi. From that point, one branch is running along the direction of West-North into Yanjiang at Xinqiaozha through Waipogan. The main stream reaches to Nijiagan, then is splitted into two branches, in which, one flows eastward to Xiwu and merges with Dongjiang, another flows northward through Nandu county into the water network of plain' at the end, accesses into Dongiiang from Huangzha of Fangqiaoshan. The river before Nanshanjiangkou is 69.5km long with watershed area of 219km2. Hengshan reservoir is built at the upstream of it with catchwater area of 150.8km2. The five main rivulets include Zhulinxi, Wanzhuxi,Tiaoshixi,Wangaoxi and Beijiexi.

(2) River network

The river networks densely distributed in the Yinzhou district are not only the important water resource facilities with many functions of flood discharge, fresh water storage, agricultural irrigation and navigation in all ages, but also the main sources of urban water supply and industrial water. The main water system in the district is Fenghuajiang water system and the inland river water system contains the Nantang river and Zhongtang river belonging to the Jinxi river network and of Jindong river network.

Nantang river is born of the Zhangxi rivulet in Siming mountain and from the split point at the upstream of Tashanyan, flows through Jinjiang county, Dongqiao, Hengzhang, Lishe and Shigan and accesses into Ningbo city by Nanshuimen. It is 24.5km long with the average width of 33.1m, average depth of 1.84m and total surface area of 0.81 km2. Nantang river section from Hengzhang is so near Fenghuaj iang that some portions indirectly connect Fenghuajiang by many gates. It is the main river course for introducing the water of Zhangxi into the Jinxi river network, flood discharge, irrigation and navigation. One of the branches of Nantang river is the Xinnantang river connecting eastward to Shigan county, with the length of 7km, average width of 21.58km and average depth of 1.5m, providing source of drinking water and agricultural irrigation water for local villages.

The upstream of Zhongtang river is Zhuangjiaxi rivulet born of the piedmont of Caowangang. The main stream of it is 17.5km long and with the average width of 25m and the average depth of 2.4m. Passing through Hengjie county, Jishigang, Maimianqiao and Wangchunqiao, the Zhongtang river connects with the Xitang river. It is 12km long, 24.7m average width and 2.68m average depth and with the water surface area of 0.3km2. It crosses the central part of Jinxi plain and is significant in terms of water diversion, water storage, irrigation and navigation. It is one of the main rivers for water diversion into Yongcheng.

As the upstream of Qiantang river, the Hengxi rivulet originates frorn the Jiuquling and Daochengling of Daochengao. The river merged with two sources flows northward to Daao, is divided~ into two branches at Huashiqiao, and converges at the streamhead of Hengxi river. Form Hengxi nveri it runs through Kongjiatan, Wangjiaao, Yunlong, Jiangcun, Sanqiao, Sigang and Baiheqiao and ends at Dashiganqiao. It has the total length of 18.5km, the average width of 29.26m. the max. depth of 4.Om and the average depth of 2.2m. The main branches through the district include Jiuqu river and Miaoyan river which introduce the flood into Fenghuajiang by Tongpen gate and Miaoyangan. It is the main course of the sourtheast of Yinzhou with functions of water diversion, irrigation and navigation. In additon, it is the main course tor providing the water source for the old urban area.

3.1.6.2 Ground water

The total volumn of Ningbo's ground water resources is 1.793 billion cubic meters, in which 0.312 billion cubic mters is the volumn of shallow ground water. The supply conditions of ground water is different with the drainage conditions of it, for example, the annual total supply volumn of ground water in the plain is 0.574 billion cubic mters, in which 0.536 billion cubic meters is fresh water and the rest is brackish water. The main types of ground water include the pore water in the loosening rocks, fissured water from bedrock and mineral water etc.

Distributing on the Ningbo and Fenghua plains, the deep pore confined water aquifers can be divided into two layers, the depth of first aquifer'is 50- 70m with mainly containing brackish and saline water. There is a little fresh water body under the area from Sourth gate of old urban area to Buzhen of Jinxian. The depth of second aquifer is 70- 100m and deeper than lOOm. With the old urban area as the center, the fresh water body has the volumn of 158000 cubic meters. At present, the annual yield is 9.52 million cubic meters. The overexploitation resulted in the slow settlement of ground around the centers of Zhangbin bridge on the east of river in old urban area and Kongpu on the north of river during 1964- 1977. Afterward, some corftrol measures such as ground water exploitation according to the planning and increase of recharging have be carried out and achieved the local raise of the deep ground water level and decrease of the settlement speed. Now, the settlement of ground has been controlled basically. 3.1.7 Water development within the basin

The basin of Yong river is located on the sourth of Hangzhou bay and along the eastern coast of Zhejiang province. Both Yao river and Fenghua river are the sources of Yong river. After converge at Sanjiangkou of Ningbo, it is called as the Yong river. The upstream reach of the sourth source(Fenghua river) is Yan river which originates from the east piedmont of Xiujianshan of Siming mountain. Yan river converges with three branches, including Xian river/Dong river on its east and Jin rver on its north. at Sanjiangkou of Xiawangdu of Hengzhang.

55 Then it can be called as the Fenghua river. The Fenghua river before the Sanjiangkou of Ningbo is 93.1km long with the basin area of 2223km2. The north source, Yao river, originates from the Xiajialing on the north piedmont of Siming mountain of Yuyao county. The river before the Sanjiangkou of Ningbo is 107.4km long with the basin 2 area of 1934km .

Within the basin of Yong river, 13 large or medium reservoirs has been built since establishment of our country, in which there are 4 large reservoirs including the Tingxia, Hengshan and Jiaokou reservoirs within the Fenghua river basin and the Siminghu reservoir within the Yao river basin. The controlled area of mountain region is 689kmn. Yong river is with the length of 119km and the total fall of 750m. The river reach of mountainous stream at its upstream is 53km long which is 45% of the total river length. The water resources are centralized on the upstreams of branch courses. The hydropower development began since the earlier on 1970's. So far, 144 small scale hydropower stations has been built up with the total installed capacity of 51.4MW and the multi-yearly average power output of 0.107 billion kw.h.

The water resource of Fenghua river basin has 63MW theoretical reserve and can be used to develop the installed capacity of 50.6MW and multi-yearly average power output of 140.29 mnillion kwh. In which, 34.3MW has been developed and is 67.8% of the total installed capacity. The water resource of Yao river basin has 28MW theoretical reserve and can be used to develop the installed capacity of 9.1MW and multi-yearly average power output of 13.75 million kwh. In which, 6.5MW has been developed and is 71% of the total installed capacity. After hydropower development lasting several decades, the water resources within the Yong river basin has been developed to the extent over 75%.

In 1998, based on the previous "Comprehensive Planning of Yao River Basin", "Flood Control Planning of Yao River" and "Dam Line Planning of Main Streams of Yong River', Zhejiang Provincial Survey & Design Institute Of Water Conservancy & Hydropower performed the comprehensive planning of Yong river basin and prepared the "Comprehensive Planning Report of Yong River Basin". The reservoir projects proposed in the planning include Geao, Xujiangan, Luwang, Qixia and Zhougongzai reservoirs within the Fenghua river basin, and Shuangxikou, Xiao(or Zbongshan) reservoirs within Yao river basin. The Geao reservoir located on the upstream of Dong nver, Xujiangan reservoir on the upstream of Yan river, Luwang reservoir on the branche of Jin river and Qixia reservoir. on the moutain area of the western of Yinzhou are the comprehensively utilized reservoirs with the main functions of irrigation and water supply combining with the function of flood control. Shuangxikou reservoir on Dayin rivulet and Xiao (or Zhongshan) reservoir on Lubu rivulet aim at flood control. Meeting the requirements of water supply and flood control, the undeveloped larger scale water resource is only the Zhougongzhai reservoir located on the upstream of Jiaokou reservoir and Zhang rivulet of Jin river branches. 3.1.8 Water resource demonstration of Zhougongzhai and Jiaokou Reservoir Water Diversion Project 3.1.8.1 Basic situation of water resource in municipal area

The total water resource of Ningbo City is 7,036,000,000m3, the total population of the whole city in 2002 was 5,462,000 people, and water resource occupancy per capita was only 1,288m3, being 57% of national value per capita and 61% of provincial value per capita. Urban water supply region of Ningbo City includes six districts directly under the jurisdiction of the city and Fenghu River system in Fenghua Citv. The total area of water supply

56 region is 3,117km2 and total quantity of water resource is 2,599,OOO,000m3. Its total population in 2002 was 2.170,000 people and water resource occupancy per capita was only 1,198m3.

According to related data such as Ningbo City Medium- and Long-Term Water Supply and Demand Plan Report, mean annual precipitation of Ningbo City is 1,521mm, annual runoff depth is 789mm, annual rate of surface runoff is 6,724,000,000m3, total quantity of water resource is 7,036,000,000m3, and water resource occupancy per capita is only 1,315m3, being only 62% and 605 of provincial and national average levels respectively, far lower than the internationally recognized water utilization shortage line of 1,750m3 per capita. Due to impact of monsoon climate, annual distribution of precipitation and runoff are not uniform and precipitation in the drainage basin is mainly controlled by plum rain and typhoon. Annual precipitation is mainly in April to September and the precipitation in these six months is 70% of annual precipitation. At the same time, annual change of precipitation is relatively great, actual measured maximum annual precipitation is 2,045mm (Ningbo Station, 1947) and minimum annual precipitation is 905mm (Ningbo Station, 1967). The distribution of precipitation in the drainage basin and runoff space also is not uniform. It is great in relatively sparsely populated southwest and southeast mountainous region and small in the central plain and northeast coastal region where population and industries are relatively dense, descending from mountainous region to plain.

The nonuniformity of water resource spatiotemporal distribution and the contradiction between water resource spatial distribution and productivity geographic layout bring difficulty to the water resource development and utilization in Ningbo City and leads to contradiction between water resource supply and demand in Ningbo City. 3.1.8.2 Existing water resource facilities and water supply capability

Since 1949, Ningbo City has built a large number of water storage, diversion and water lifting projects including 4 large scaled reservoirs, 20 medium scaled reservoirs, 351 small scaled reservoirs and approximately 5,500 large and small diversion weirs and dams and the total built reservoir capacity is 961,000,000m3 .

See table 3-1 for existing large and medium sized reservoirs in the city and see table 3-3 for the constructed large.and medium sized reservoirs involved in this calculation.

Note: Only the large- and medium-scaled reservoirs involved in this calculation is calculated.

According to calculation by "Ningbo City Tenth Five Year Plan and 2015 Planning Report for Water Resource Development and Utilization", if in the extremely dry season with factor of assurance P=90%, the 3 available water quantity for the present water source project in the city is 2,100,000,000m water shortage being 2,200,000,000m 3 According to prediction of national economic development, the total water demand of Ningbo 2 3 City in 2005 and 2015 will be ,560,000,000m3 and 2,930,000,000m respectively. Nevertheless the available 3 3 water quantity of present water source project is 2,270,000,000m and 2,490,000,000m . By then water shortage 3 will be 290,000,000m 3 and 440,000,000m respectively. In case of the extremely dry season with factor of assurance P=95%, water shortage will be more serious, reaching 610,000,000m3 and 880,000,000m3 respectively.

Ningbo City urban water supply area is divided by Yaojiang River, Fenghua River and Yongjiang River into relatively independent three areas: East Ningbo (Ningdong), West Ningbo (Ningxi) and North Ningbo (Ningbei). Agricultural water supply for the three areas forms a self organizing system and urban domestic and industrial water supply system has connected into a network. At present, the main supply water works in urban area are Jiangdong (350,000t/d), West Suburb (200,000t/d), Meilin (l00,OOOt/d), Cicheng (20,000t/d) and Beilun (150,OOOt/d) etc and the total designed water supply capability is 820,000t/d. Except Cicheng and Beilun water works take water from reservoirs, all other 650,000t/d water works take water from river network and water quality is difficult to be ensured.

The urban water supply area currently has three large scaled reservoirs including Jiaokou, Hengshan and Tingxi and six medium scaled reservoirs including Hengxi as well as 20 small scaled reservoirs, all of which have formed a water supply network with river network. The water supply projects presently under construction are Baixi Reservoir Water Diversion Project and Zhougongzhai Reservoir Project. 3.1.8.3 Demonstration of water catchment resource source

1) Basic hydrologic data

Actual measured flow data for the designed drainage basin is not available. In the drainage basin only Jiaokou Reservoir Hydrologic Station is provided. At present. Jiaokou Reservoir Station has accumulated over 20 years of data for reservoir inflow runoff. There are other hydrologic stations in nearby regions such as Xikou.

58 Xikou Station has accumulated 28 years of hydrographic observation data from 1956 to 1983, which includes water level, flow, water temperature, precipitation, and sediment concentration etc.

This drainage basin has relatively many precipitation stations. From 1950s to 1990s, 10 precipitation stations such as Jiaokou (Zhang Village), Lizhou, Zhangxi and Shangzhuang have been successively established in the lower and upper reaches of this drainage basin, of which Lizhou, Zhangxi, Hualongzhuang, Jiangjiashan and Zifeng stations are in the upper reaches of Zhougongzhai dam site. In addition, the data for Qixiangkeng, Dongao, Xiajialing and Huagaishan precipitation stations in adjacent drainage basin is also available. See table 3-4 for general situation of hydrometric stations. The data for the above stations has been compiled and examined by hydrologic department and its accuracy can meet the design need.

Measurement and calculation of characteristic value for drainage basin adopts 1/50,000 aerial topographic 2 map Version 1973. The measured catchment area in the upper stream of Yinjiang Town is 348.7km and river 2 length is 58.4km; catchment area in Jiaokou Reservoir dam site is 259km and river length is 43.35km; catchment area in Zhougongzhai Reservoir is 132km- and river length is 27.75km; catchment area from Zhougongzhai 2 Reservoir dam site to Jiaokou Reservoir dam site (Zhou-Jiao section) is 127km and river length is 25.4km; and

59 2 catchment area from Jiaokou Reservoir dam site to Yinjiang Bridge (Jiao-Yin section) is 89.7kM and river length is 15.9km.

2) Runoff analysis

(1) Runoff characteristic

The runoff in this drainage basin is mainly formed by precipitation and inter-year and intra-year change of runoff and precipitation is basically in synchronization. According to analysis, mean annual runoff depth in this drainage basin is 1,084mm, 1,462mm in the highest flow year (1981) and 420.4mm in the lowest flow year (1967), and the ratio of runoff in high and low flow years is 3.5. Inter-year water quantity is distributed month by month and usually appears as large, medium and small three peak form. Large peak occurs in September and its monthly runoff is 16.6% of annual runoff, main cause being typhoon rain; medium' peak is in June and its monthly runoff is 13.1 % of annual runoff, the cause usually being plum rain; small peak occurs in March and its monthly runoff is 9.0% of annual runoff, the cause being spring rain. Low flow period is mostly from November to next February and the total runoff amount in these four months is 14.9% of total annual amount. The lowest flow month is December and its monthly runoff is 2.9% of annual runoff.

(2) Calculation method

According to analysis of physical geography and hydrometeorological data inside and outside the drainage basin, calculation of the designed annual runoff adopts hydrologic analogy method. Index station selects Jiaokou Reservoir Station in the designed drainage basin. The 29 years of data of this station from 1974 to 2002 is utilized to establish the relation between precipitation and runoff and drainage basin precipitation and this relation are utilized to expand runoff series from 1956 to 1973. Then the parameters of drainage area and precipitation are used for correction to obtain the runoff series of sectional drainage basin.

(3) Calculation of precipitation amount in drainage basin

The precipitation stations selected for Zhougongzhai Reservoir drainage basin are the five stations of Dongao, Qixiakeng, Lizhou, Xiajialing and Zhangxi with relatively long field data series and the adopted series is 1956 to 2002. The rmissing measuring years of some stations are obtained by the correlation interpolation to the data of measuring stations with relatively long adjacent series. Through area weighted average method, mean annual precipitation of Zhougongzhai Reservoir is 1,840mm.

Eight precipitation stations are selected for Jiaokou Reservoir drainage basin. Besides the above five stations of Dongao, Qixiakeng, Lizhou, Xiajialing and Zhangxi with relatively long field data series, there are Shangzhuang, Huagaishan and Jiaokou stations. See table 3-5 for control drainage area weight coefficient of respective precipitation stations. Jiaokou Reservoir also adopted the series from 1956 to 2002 and-mean annual precipitation for the drainage basin is 1,781mm.

1) Designed level year and designed factor of assurance

(1) Designed level year

Considering the conformance to the five year plan and ten year planning for socioeconomic development, the designed level year adopts the year 2020.

(2) Designed factor of assurance

64 According to the requirement of regulations and specifications and the specific situation of this drainage basin, the designed factor of assurance of irrigation water supply is determined as follows:

The designed factor of assurance of irrigation water supply for farmland in Yinxi Plain is 85%;

The designed factor of assurance of urban and rural domestic water utilization in Ninbo City central urban area and West Yinzhou is 95%.

2) Water supply method

Water for Yinxi Plain farmland irrigation and animal husbandry is taken from Yinxi Plain river network and when river network can not meet the need of water utilization, the reservoir discharges water for supplementation.

3) Water quantity balance of Yinxi Plain river network

(1) Basic data of Yinxi Plain river network

Analysis and statistics are performed according to "Comprehensive planning report of Yongjiang River Drainage Basin", "Yin County Water Conservancy Annals" and "Ningbo City Medium- and Long-Term Water Supply and Demand Plan Report" etc, and classified control area of Yinxi Plain is shown in table 3-10.

Yinxi Plain river network area is 226.7km2, of which farmdand area is 1 10.3km2, river network water surface area is 19km2 , and non-agricultural land area is 97.4km2. With development of town and traffic construction, farmland area will decrease year after year and non-agricultural land will increase continuously. According to prediotion of planning development, farmland area in 2020 will be 88.7km2 , river network water surface area be 19km 2 and non-agncultural land be 119km'.

Yinxi Plain river network high water level is 3.53m with corresponding volume of 16,960,000m& and low water level is 2.83m with corresponding volume of 10,020,000m3 and water adjustment storage-volume of 6.940,000m'.

(2) Prediction of water demand

[I ] Agricultural imgation water

Crop in minxi Plain is mainly double cropping rice and rice irrigation quota calculation uses the water need coefficient (a) method with evaporation as parameter to calculate day-after-day balance between water and water

65 consumption. Irrigation practice adopts shallow water wetting irrigation and daily soil leakage quantity is Irmm/d. See table 3-11 for irrigation parameters of respective growing periods of continuous cropping rice. Precipitation and evaporation data adopts the field data of Yaojiang River Dazha Station and calculation series is 1963 to 2002, 40 years in total. See table 3-12 and 3-13 for year-after-year statistics of continuous crops water consumption and Irrigation quota.

Yinxi Plain has 103.8km2 paddy field (155,700mu) and 6.5km 2 dry land (9,750mu) in 2001. With development of town and traffic construction, farmland area will decrease year after year. According to prediction of planning development, the paddy field in 2020 will 83.8kM2 (124,950mu) and dry land be 5.4km2 (8,100Mu). Dry land area is relatively small and water demand is in a small proportion. Therefore reduction coefficient is used for simple calculation and 2mu dry land amounts to I mu paddy land. Mean annual irrigation water demand in 2020 will be 47,320,000m 3 .

[2] Waer for animal husbandrv

68 In 2020, water use quota for pig, cattle and sheep is 30, 60 and 15 IVhead d and water consumption for animal husbandry is 1,210,0000m 3 /y.

[3] Water for others

Other water consumption mainly considers water consumption for nautical navigation ship lock and environment water utilization in the lower reaches. Based on 40,OOOm3/d, water consumption is 14,610,000m3/y.

(3) River network water quantity balance calculation

When river network water quantity balance is calculated, with no view of the incoming flow from mountainous region in the upper reaches of Jiaokou Reservoir and Xixia Reservoir, water yield of river network is composed of non-reservoir runoff and return water in plain and mountainous regions.

Calculation principle of Yinxi Plain river network water quantity balahce is: when river network water level is higher than low level, water is supplied by river network; when river network water level is lower than low level, Jiaokou Reservoir discharges water for supplementation; when river network water level is higher than high level, river network abandons water.

4) Available water for joint operation of Zhougongzhai Reservoir and Jiaokou Reservoir

(1). Joint operation principle

[1] Water for farmland irrigation and animal husbandry in Yinxi Plain is taken from Yinxi Plain nver network.

[2] When Yinxi Plain river network can not meet the 40,000t/d plain farmland irrigation, animal husbandry and other purposes (including environmental water consumption), Zhougongzhai Reservoir and Jiaokou Reservoir discharge water for supplementation.

[2] Under the precondition that Zhougongzhai Reservoir and Jiaokou Reservoir meet the water consumption for Yinxi Plain farmland irrigation, animal husbandry and other purposes, besides supplying l0,OOOt/d water to the mountainous region (including Zhangshui Town) between Jiaokou Reservoir dam and Yinjiang Town, Zhougongzhai Reservoir and Jiaokou Reservoir will supply domestic and industrial water to Yinxi and Ningbo central urban area through joint operation to enable the residents in Yinxi and Ningbo central urban area 'to use the high quality reservoir water.

[4] When reservoir water storage is less than water supply capacity, water supply for farmland irrigation is stopped so as to ensure domestic and industrial water utilization.

(2). Available water for reservoir joint operation

Dead water level of present Jiaokou Reservoir is 37.68m. After actual landtorm measurement and hydraulic engineering water catchment building arrangement for this feasibility study. it is concluded that the dead reservoir supply water level of this water diversion project needs to be raised to 41.18m.

71 The series selected for supply and demand balance calculation is 1963 to 2002, 40 years in total. With days as calculated time period, after calculation and analysis of long series day-after-day water quantity balance, the reservoirs shall meet the average water deficit of 9,630,000m3 for irrigation of Yinxi Plain in the lower reaches, average water deficit of 60,000m3 for animal husbandry, water.deficit of 560,000m3 for other purposes and 3,650,000m3 for mountainous region in the lower reaches of the dam. Under this condition, urban daily water supply is 473,000t/d, and, considering daily water supply variation factor 1.14, maximum daily water capacity is 540,000t/d, mean annual water supply is 173,000,000rn3 and water supply factor of assurance is 95%. Considering 6% linear loss from reservoir to water works, the maximum daily water supply capacity of water works is 500,000t/d.

Water quantity balance calculation series is 1963 to 2002, a 40-year day-after-day process. See table 3-16 for water quantity balance result of joint operation between Zhougongzhai Reservoir and Jiaokou Reservoir.

Water supply amount in 2003 increased evidently than the previous year and maximum daily water supply amount reached 861,000m3 /d, 5% more than designed water production capacity of water works .(820,000 m3/d). In the 80 days from July 1 to September 18, 2003, there were 52 days in which water supply amount exceeded 800,000 m3 /d, accounting for 65% and 74 days in which water supply amount exceeded 780,000 m3 /d, accounting for 92.5%. In all the 80 days, water supply amount exceed 770,000 m3/d. It is obvious that designed water supply capacity of water works can no longer meet the need of water consumption and overload operation of water works has affected water supply safety and quality and increased the difficulty of management and dispatch.

(2) Present situation of water supply in Yinzhou District

Yinzhou District was originally Yin County and was established as a district in 2002. Due to history, relationship of administrative subordination and geographic location reasons, existing water supply in Yinzhou District has not been incorporated in the city water supply scope of Ningbo City. Except the central area of Ytnzhou District where some places receive water supply from Ningbo Water Supply Company due to adjacency to Ningbo urban area, other areas and villages and towns receive water supply from Yinzhou Central Area Water Supply Company (Central Area Water Works) and water works in respective villages and towns. According to site survev and related statistical data, currently Yinzhou District has 32 water works at the level of villages and towns with total scale being 465,500 m3/d and water supply population being 730.000. Water supply pipes have been connected to each household and running water popularization work has basically been completed. Statistics show 3 that average daily water supply amount in 2003 was 263,000 m /d 20 out of 32 water works take water from river network water source and their water supply capacity is 77%C of total water supply capacity. Quality of water sources is generally poor.

Water treatment technologv of water works in villages and towns in Y'inzhou District: the water works with 8a the water from river network as water source adopt the technology of hydraulic circulating clarification tank or inclined tube sedimentation tank with valveless filter cell and feed chlorine two times for disinfection before and after the tank; the water works with the groundwater as water source take groundwater and directly supply it after feeding chloririe for disinfection; the water works with the water from reservoir as water source take raw water which is filtered by valveless filter cell and fed with chlorine and then supplied to users. Water supply pipe network in villages and towns is mainly in the shape of branch and most pipes use self-stressing concrete pipe, some steel pipes, PVC pipes and ductile iron pipes.

(3) Present situation of water supplv of water works in villages and towns in Zhenhai District and

Beilun District

Water supply of the built-up areas in Zhenhai District and Beilun District is the responsibility of Ningbo Water Supply Company, but some places in villages and towns are still supplied by small water works in villages and towns. According to statistics, Zhenhai District and Beilun District have 14 water 3 works at the level of villages and towns at present with total designed capacity of 102,700 m /d and actual water supply amount of 90,000 m3/d.

(4) Self-used water works of industrial enterprises

Due to historical and managerial system reasons as well as city water supply capacity and water supply range, some industrial enterprises have built their own water sources and water works which are concentrated in Zhenhai and Beilun districts with total number being several dozens and total water supply scale being 460,000 m3/d.

(5) Summary of present situations of water works

The present situations of city water supply in the six districts in Ningbo City are summarized in table 3-20.

In 2003 the city demolished, relocated and rebuilt 469,000m non-apartment houses in the three districts and renovated 16 old residential quarters. It built 340,000m2 economic and applicable apartments and allocated low-rent apartments to 504 households and 1,984 households were benefited. 31,000 unemployed people were trained, 130,000 work posts were created and 61,5000 unemployed people were helped to find jobs. Jiangdong Heart Weaving Station has become the most influential informal employment organization in the province. The city's registered unemployment rate at the end of year is 4.0% and the city has been listed as one of the cities with easiest employment in the country. Endowment insurance for the people whose land has been expropriated has initiated. The city has completed the training of work post changing for 25,000 farmers and the employment ability of these farmers has been improved. New system of medical insurance for urban workers has been comprehensively implemented. New rural system of cooperative medical care has started experimental spot. Social security and system is continuously perfected. Aid-the-poor development has obtained new achievement and 100 economically weak villages have taken the road to prosperity.

In the urban area of Ningbo, there are the sound environmental hygiene organizations and teams to achieve the complete collection of domestic wastes. The innocent treatment ratio of domestic wastes reaches 90%. The Fenglin refuse burning power plant has put into operation. The diffusion rate of tap water reaches 100 %. The drinking water sources for Ningbo urban area mainly include Yuyaojiang river and Dongqianhu lake where three water plants(Meilin, Jiangdong and Nanjiao) have been built-up. The water quality of drinking water sources is good and meets the requirement of II class groundwater qdality criteria.

Ningbo is a well-known cultural city with long history. There are -Tianyi-ge"-the longest historical library building, Baoguosi tample which is a wooden structure building of Song dynast, thebirthplace of the "Neolithic Hemudu Culture" showing the matriarchal clan society dating back more than 7,000 years, the memorial site of Yueyao kiln in Shanglinhu lake, Tashanyan dam which is an ancient water resource project with long history, Tiantongshi and Ayuwangsi tamples, as well as the landscape area of Xikou of Fenghua.

92 3.4 Cultural relic protection

Tashan Weir is situated at the outlet of Zhangxi River beside Tashan Mountain in the west head of Yinzhou Town, Yinzhou District and is collectively called, together with Zhengguao Channel, Ling Channel and Dujiang Weirs, Four Major Ancient Chinese Hydro Projects. It is magnificent and precisely architectural with perfect structure. It was published as a national key cultural relic protection unit in 1988 and was chosen as one of the ten scenic sports in Ningbo City in 1994. In ancient times, whenever spring rain period (intermittent drizzles) and autumn rain period (typhoon rain) came, flash flood occurred. The surging flood rushed to endanger common people and crop. Therefore common people in Tang Dynasty built Tashan Weir to drain floods and irrigate crops to change flood into water conservancy.

Since completion, Tashan Weir has played a huge role. Water in the upper reaches is blocked by the weir and flows into Nantang River to irrigate more than 200,000mu farmland in seven townships in west Yinzhou. In flood season, flood in the upper reaches overflows weir surface to Fenghua River and crosses over Yongjiang River to rush down into the sea from Zhenhaikou to mitigate flood situation in west Yinzhou. Site selection of Tashan Weir was rational and its design was scientific, thus it can not only prevent drought and discharge flood, but also adjust water flow into Nantang River. After over one thousand years, the weir body is still basically intact and able to exert the function of draining floods and irrigation.

For specific location of Tashan Weir, refers to figure 2 and 3.

small wild Due to the more effect from human's activities, the area housing the project only has the be protected. animals accustomed to human's activities, such as mouse, no the wild animals valued to The birds mianly include some aquatic birds on Fenghuajiang river.

(4) Soil and water loss status

wind erosion. The soil and water loss in Yanzhou is mainly caused by water erosion and a certain of areas, there are The major performance of water erosion is the surface erosion of slopes. In some coteau shallow gully erosion and snmLall gully erosion.

94 The total area of soil and water loss in Yanzhou district is 18588ha equal to 13.8% of the district total land area 134560ha and 36.17% of the total coteau and mountain land area with slope over 3 degrees.

In the area of soil and water loss, the slight loss area of 124 14ha equals to 9.2% of the total land area and 66.8% of the total area of soil and water loss; the medium lossarea of 5529ha equals to 4.1% of the total land area and 29.7% of the total area of soil and water loss: the serious loss area of 552ha equals to 0.4% of the total land area and 2.97% of the total area of soil and water loss; the specially serious loss area of 93ha equals to 0.07% of the total land area and 0.5% of the total area of soil and water loss.

The regions with more loss area are mainly distributed in the larger size town in the coteau and mountain land, in which, the Hengjiezhen town has the biggest area of soil and water loss up to 3538ha. Zhangxixiang township has the max. ratio of loss area vs total land area up to 49.76%. There are 6 plain towns (Qiuaizhen, Xiayingzhen, Maoshanzhen, Zhonggongmiaozhen, Gulinzhen and Shiganzhen) without soil and water loss. The region housing the project is of the middle and low mountain land. The rain collection area and dam site of Jiaokou reservoir have the good vegetation protection situation with coverage rate more than 65%. Partial steep slopes have higher erosion level because of the landform, the soil of it succeeds to be the stony sand of mountain land. Other most areas are covered with the typical mountain land soil such as the yellow mud of mountain land and yellow mud. The thicker soil layer makes the soil and water loss slighter. At the dam site, runoff multi-yearly average suspended load sediment transport rate is 1.379kg/s, and sand content of 0.8kg/m3. After considering 20% bed load, the multi-yearly average sediment transport volume at the dam site is 26.93 thousand tons. Therefore, the calculated multi-yearly average sediment transport module will be 204t/km2 -y. Based on the relation between erosion module and sediment transport module, it is got that the soil erosion module within the basin is 440t/km a, that means the region is of slight erosion area.

The main cause of soil and water loss within the project zone is water erosion with the main present of surface erosion. The facilities for soil and water conservation within the project zone consist of coverage of forest and grass and small amount of terrace. There are no other type soil and water conservation facilities. 3.6.3 Investigation and evaluation for the present situation of hydrobiont in this environmental assessment 3.6.3.1 Arrangetnent of station

To know the present.situation of aquatic ecology in the rivers downstream of Jiaokou Reservoir, two sampling points are set up at Jinxi Bridge on Zhangxi River (upstream of Yinjiang River) and the upper reach of Tashan Weir.

(3) Zoobenthos

97 The river section near the two sampling points of Zhangxi Jinxi Bridge and Tashan Weir are usually gravel and coarse sand substratum and zoobenthos is very scanty. Due to blockage of weir dam in rivers near Tashan Weir, a certain area of dermarsal sediments exists. Zoobenthos is mainly composed of 2 oligosaccharide annelida. Number of individuals for Oligosaccharide is 1,305.6/M on average and biomass is 0.263gm 2 . Other river sections mainly have some species adaptive to the life of mountainous stream. Common species are aquatic insects Epeofis curvatalus, Thermicns sp, Psephenidae, Culicielae and snails Ballamya aeruginosa, Semisulcospira cancellata and Radix swinhoei etc. In addition, some small crustacean are distributed in the upper stream sections: Caridina denticulate, Rana nigomaculata, Natxix natrix, and in the river sections in the middle and lower reaches are big economic crustacean Macrobrachium nipponensis and Eriochair sinensis.

(4) Aquatic higher plant

Due to excessive gravel and coarse sand substratum near Zhangxi Jinxi Bridge, aquatic higher plant is very scanty. The river sections near Tashan Weir have relatively pure submergent plant community 2 Vallisneria spiralis and average biomass is 4.6kg/M . On the two banks are such common species: Alternanthera philoxeroidesw, Lemna. Paucicostata,Potamogeton maackianus. (5) Fish

Yinjiang is the branch in the upper reaches of Yongjiang Water system. According to data accumulated in the last 20 years, Yinjiang has 44 species of fishes and ichthyofauna composition belongs to intermediate type gradually moving from Jianghuai subregion in East China region to Zhemin subregion in South China region. The main commercial fishes are silver carp, bighead carp, grass carp, carp, crucian carp, eel, rice field eel, catfish, white fish etc. Other common fishes are opsariichthys bidens, stone moroko, Abbottina rivularus, loach, snakehead mullet, goby etc.

In the scope of this evaluation, the river section (Zhangxi River) upstream of Tashan Weir in Yinjiang is flashy stream with short source and rapid flow. Investigation shows that there is no migratory fish and fish spawning site, and only such small fishes as acrossocheilus, Chinese spined loach, goby, bitterling and stone moroko are found, thus fish resource of some economic value is not formed.

3.6.3.5 Evaluation of present situation of hydrobiont

The present situation investigation and monitoring result of aquatic ecology indicates the resource of hydrobiont in the section from Yinjiang Jiaokou River to Tashan Weir is scanty and there are no rare and precious aquatic plants and animals nor migratory fish and fish spawning site, thus fish resource of some economic value is not formed.

Affected by drainage from Jiaokou Reservoir, the characteristic of plankton community in the investigated river sections (Zhangxi River) upstream of Yinjing River is similar with Jiaokou Reservoir. As river water is often in the flowing condition, water body translucent and standing stock of plankton is low Table 3-29 shows the structural index of zooplankton anderrantia community of the investigated water area, where:

Calculation equation for composite index of phytoplankton is: Z=( blue algae+green algae+ Centricae diatom+ 98 euglenophyta)number of species/number of desmid species;

Calculation equation for zooplankton index (Kakkeri, 1978) is D=E/O (E-eutrophy species, 0-poor-nutrition species);

Calculation for abundance (Margalif, 1958) d = s-1/logN (s-number of biospecies in sample, N-total number of bion in sample);

Biological diversity index is DI =- p, Inp, ...... =1=

where DI-diversity index; Pi-existence of i genus plankton, Pi=Ni/N. Ni is the quantity of I genus plankton and N is the quantity of all planktons; s-genus number of plankton.

Table 3-29 Structural index of plankton community in Yinjiang River

Tashan Weir Jinxi Bridge Phytoplankton Zooplankton Phytoplankton zooplankton Composite index of 3.667 / 3.333 / phytoplankton (Z) / 2.000 / 2.500 Zooplankton index (E) Shannon-Wiever index (D) 1.926 1.474 2.340 1.695

Note: Z and E in 1- 5 is medium- eutrophy level, greater than 5 is extreme eutrophy level. D is light pollution for 2-3 and moderate pollution for 1-2.

It can be known from composite index of phytoplankton and index of zooplankton, that Zhangxi River in the upper reaches of Yinjiang River is in medium-upper eutrophy level, and it can be calculated from Shannon-Wiever index, that incoming water from the upper reaches incurs organic pollution to some extent.

As water exchange in the upper reaches of Yinjiang is great and water body is highly transparent, there is a certain area of submergent plant (wild celery) community, which is conducive to optimization of water body envirnment and enrichment of fishes and zoobenthos resources.

3.7 General situation of pollution sources

3.7.1 Pollution situation in the upper reaches of Jiaokou Reservoir

Due to inconvenient traffic, development of reservoir area and catchment area of Zhougongzhai Reservoir is relatively backward and industrial base is relatively weak. At present, the industry is mainly bamboo and wood byproduct processing industry. Discharge of wastewater is low and sparsely distributed and is not regarded as pollution source.

Presently in Zhougongzhai Reservoir valley, there is a population of 32.000 people, 20,000mu farmland, 29,000 pigs, 960 cattle and 5,700 sheep. The main pollution source is village life, animal husbandrv and farmland surface source pollution.

According to investigation conducted by Ningbo environmental protection department, rural 99 population discharge CODcrl28g/d and BOD5 88g/d on average, pigs discharge CODcrl80g/d (each) and

BOD5 150g/d (each), cattle discharge CODcr3617g/d (each) and BOD5675.8g/d (each); sheep discharge CODcr24g/d (each) and BOD512g/d (each). As rural animal and human excreta is mainly used to fertilize farmland and domestic wastes are often used as compost, if 15% domestic wastes and 10% animal husbandry pollutants flow into the environment, the discharge of rural domestic and animal

husbandry pollutants in Zhougongzhai River valley will be CODcrl497.lkg/d and BOD5 929kgd.

After completion of the reservoir, 2,314 people will migrate to other places and the discharge of domestic and animal husbandry pollutants from catchment area into the reservoir will be

CODcrl452.7kg/d and BOD 5898.5kg/d. See table3-30 for details of discharge of rural domestic and animal husbandry pollutants in catchment area of Zhougongzhai Reservoir.

BOD5 422.4 391.9 435 64.8 6.8

In addition, nitrogen and phosphorus in domestic wastewater, farmland and soil flow into water body with mud and sand and water and are the major source of nitrogen and phosphorus in water body of the reservoir. Table 3-31 shows the discharge rate of nitrogen and phosphorus by human and various livestock and poultry. If 10% is discharged into water body, the nutritive materials brought into the reservoir by human and livestock in the upper reaches of Zhougongzhai Reservoir is lisied in table 3-32

Annual sediment discharge at dam site of Zhougongzhai Reservoir is 26,750x and erosion soil is mainly yellow soil genus, pink soil genus, stone sand soil genus, mountain land yellow genus and mountain land sand and soil genus. Total average nitrogen content is 0.13% and total phosphorus is 0.021%. With reservoir submersion in the valley deducted, there is still 19,700mu farmland- If a mu uses 123kg standard nitrogen fertilizer and standard phosphate fertilizer, then use of nitrogen and phosphate fertilizer in catchment in the upper reaches of the reservoir is 2,423t and 689.5t respectively.

100 According to equation of soil nutrition loss E=aSN.P+bcdFN.P

Where: E-predicted total quantity of soil-contained nitrogen and phosphorus into reservoir;

a-consumption coefficient of nitrogen and phosphorus along its route;

b-average content of nitrogen and phosphorus in fertilizer; c-nitrogen and phosphorus utilization by crops; d-loss rate of fertilizer after entering soil and water body;

FN.P-total quantity of used fertilizer; SN.P-total quantity of soil-contained total nitrogen and phosphorus into water body

After calculation, it is concluded that total nitrogen and total phosphorus entering into reservoir with silt flow are 123.94t and 4.55t respectively. 3.7.2 Pollution source between dam of Zhougongzhai Reservoir and Jiaokou Reservoir

The river section from the dam of Zhougongzhai Reservoir to Jiaokou Reservoir is 15km and sectional area is 37km2 . In the section there is a population of 8,077 people and 3,527mu farmland. According to data provided by Yinzhou District Environmental Protection Bureau, the major pollution sources are Yin county Siming Food Factory and Yin County Chunyu Food Factory. For their discharge of wastewater, refer to table 3-33.

The present population in the section from the dam of Zhougongzhai Reservoir to Jiaokou Reservoir is 8,077 people and, after estimation, COD discharged into river course with domestic wastewater in the section is 56,604kg/a.

With high frequency of acid rain, the monitored region is of serious acid rain area. 3.8.2 Present situation of water environmental quality in the assessed area

3.8.2.1 Water system of Yongjiang river

(1) Water quality of Fenghtiajiang, Yaojiang and Yongjiang rivers

The Yongjiang water system consists of the main stream of Yongjiang river and two Class I branches from Yaojiang river and Fenghuajiang river. Many conventional monitoring stations -in Yongjiang water system has been installed to monitor the river reaches with total length of 216.5km and provide plenty of and detailed water quality data. Therefore, during this evaluation, it is no need to perform the water quality monitoring of Yongjiang and Fenghuajiang rivers. The evaluation utilized the last two years conventional water quality monitoring data provided by Fanshidu and Chenlangyan stations of Fenghuajiang river, Qinglindu station of Yuyaojiang river and Sanjiangkou station of Yongjiang river to analyze the water environment status. For location of each monitoring station, refer to attached figure 1.

The evaluation has the "Surface Water Environmental Quality Standard" (GB3838-2002) adopted as the evaluation standard, in which the water quality control targets of Fanshidu and Qinglindu sections are Class III and the water qualitv control targets of other four sections are Class IV. The evaluation method is the index method of sinale evaluation criteria. For the results of water quality monitoring and evaluation, refer to Table 3-36.3-37.3-38.

It can be known from the m6nitoring data in the last three years, that water quality of the Fanshidu cross-section of Fenghu River in 2001 reached Class IV standard of GB3838-2002 "Environmental quality standard for surface water" and the main standard-exceeding indices are DO, petroleum and total phosphorus. It tended to change better in 2002 and all indices met Class III water quality requirement of GB3838-2002. But in 2003 water quality in different stages exceeded standard to different extents and total water quality was Class IV. Except BOD5 exceeded standard slightly in 2001, other indices of Qinglindu Section of Yaojiang River met Class III water quality requirement of GB3838-2002. Except were up to standard BOD5 exceeded standard in 2003, other indices of Chenglang Weir of Fenghua River in different years. Water quality of Sanjiangkou of Yongjiang River meet the Class IV water standard required by the plan and has not exceeded standard in all stages.

(2) Water quality of tributary streams of Fenghuajiang river

The evaluation utilized the 2002 ,2003 conventional water quality monitoring data provided by Jiaokou reservoir outlet station and Liangqiao station of Yanjiang river, Jiangkou station of Yanjiang river, Changting station of Xianjiang river and Xiwu station of Dongjiang river to analyze the water environment status. For location of each monitoring station, refer to attached figure 1.

The evaluation has the "Surface Water Environmental Quality Standard" (GB3838-2002) adopted as the evaluation standard, in which the water quality control target of Jiaokou reservoir outlet section is Class 1. the water quality control target of Lianyqiao section is Class III and the water quality control targets of Jiangkou and Xiwu sections are Class IV The evaluation method is the index method of single evaluation criteria. For the results of water quality monitoring and evaluation, refer to Table3-39,3-40.

3.8.2.3 Water quality of reservoirs

According to the classification of environmental protection areas of the surface water, Miyan of Yanjiang river (water outlet of Jiaokou reservoir) is defined to be the water source protection area with water quality of Class I, other river reaches to be the multifunction areas with water quality of Class II and the Grade I or n water source protection areas for providing centralized or domestic drinking water with quality of Class I.

Based on the monitoring data of water quality of Zhougongzhai dam sites and Xiaojiao (located on the end of Jiaokou reservoir) in 1996 and 1999, and of the outlet of Jiaokou reservoir and Liangqiao of Yanjiang river in 1997, which is provided by the environmental protection monitoring station of Yanzhou district, it is found that the quality of water entering Zhougongzhai reservoir is Class 11, the quality of water entering Jiaokou reservoir Class II and the quality of water discharging from Jiaokou reservoir Class 1. For details, refer to Table 3-42.

3.8.3 Investigation and evaluation on the status of acoustic environment

In addition to utilize the available monitoring data, we implemented the status monitoring along the project

h(ne to provide more detail data for this acoustic environment evaluation.

116 3.8.3.1 Analysis of available monitoring data

(I ) Noise of functional area

According to the Ningbo environmental quality report of 2003 prepared by Ningo environmental protection bureau, the day noise levels in every functional area of Ningbo generally reached the standard and the night noise level at some time over the limits. In which, the noise levels of residents' cultural and educational area are over the limit up to 2.8dB, the noise levels of both sides of main traffic arteries over the limit up to 10.4dB. The noise levels of the industrial and mixed areas are conform with the criteria.

(2) Local environmental noise

According to the Ningbo environmental quality report of 2003 prepared by Ningo environmental protection bureau, the built-up area of Ningbo was divided into 216 grids with dimension of 500mxSOOm, the measured average equivalent sound level of local environment noise in 2003 is 53.3dB (A) which is lower than that in 2002 of 53.4dB(A). The equivalent sound level of environmental noise in the urban area of Ningbo City has been controlled below 56dB(A) for successively 8 years. In 2003, regional environmental noise in Ningbo City ranked the fifth among the 47 key environmental protection cities in the country, one position ahead compared with 2002.

In respect of the sound source constituent of noise, the constituent ratio of domestic noise is the highest up to 51.4%, traffic noise take second place up to 35.6%, therefore, the domestic noise becomes the main noise source of Ningbo city.

4.2 Environmental impact assessment and corresponding mitigation measure during construction period

4.2.1 Atmospheric environmental impact analysis and prevention and control measure during construction 4.2.1.1 Atmospheric environmental impact analysis during construction period

The project in construction period has a centralized impact on the atmosphere and atmospheric pollution mainly comes from dust nuisance and construction waste gas generated in construction. The construction waste gas here mainly refers to the waste gas generated from oil burning machinery, such as waste gases ermitted from wheel loader, dump truck and excavator etc and the tail gases emitted from transportation vehicles.

1) Dust nuisance impact analysis during construction period

(1) Raw water catchment and conveyance project and water purification plant project Many links during the construction of raw water catchment and conveyance project and water purification plant project may generate construction dust nuisance, such as construction of raw water catchment tower and tunnel, construction blasting process of water purification plant, concrete mixing station and earthwork loading and unloading during construction of raw water catchment tower and tunnel, as well as improper protection of excavalion waste dump. Construction of water purification plant may also generate dust nuisance to have impact on the surrounding atmospheric environment of the construction site.

For major sources of dust nuisances during construction, see table 4- 1.

Table 4-1 Major sources of dust nuisances during construction Major dust nuisance sources [Percentage of all site dust nuisances Site road dust nuisance 62% 86% Concrete mixing dust nuisance 24% Material handling 14% Earthwork and sandstone piling dust Minor nuisance _ Construction operation dust nuisance Minor Decoration dust nuisance Minor It can be seen from the above table that to reduce dust nuisance is mainly to reduce site road dust nuisance.

121 What can generate the minimum dust nuisance is cement road, then solid earth road, and then ordinary earth road, and the poorest is earth road with much quick soil, whose ratio of particulate concentration is 1:1.17:2.06:2.29 in turn. Its major impact range is 50m area on the two sides of the road. Besides site road dust nuisance, the dust nuisance generated from concrete mixing generates serious pollution to the environment. According to analog data, dust nuisance pollution in front of mixing shed can exceed 27 mg/m3, 28.1 times more than the standard. With increase of distance from mixing shed and rapid decrease of TSP concentration, the average value at 50m away is 1.14 mg/m3, 0.6-0.8 times more than control point. Therefore its impact range is mainly in the 50m area around mixing shed. The degree of dust nuisance is somewhat related to the magnitude of wind and climate. Ningbo City belongs to typical subtropical monsoon climate and it is characterized by significantly alternate monsoon in winter and summer. It is mild and humid in the whole year with distinct four seasons, abundant precipitation and long sunlight. Annual prevailing wind is NW and SSE and the mean annual wind speed is 2.9m/s. Ningbo City has abundant precipitation which may slow down the dust nuisance impact range, and the most adverse impact time period of dust nuisance mainly occurs in gale weather.

(2) Clean water conveyance main pipe project and urban water distribution ring network

For clean water conveyance main pipe project and urban water distribution ring network, as construction area is relatively near residential area or in the urban fringe, the dust nuisance generated from construction will not only have direct impact on the atmospheric environmental quality, but also have adverse effect on the living of urban residents. Dust nuisance leads to the sharp increase of suspended particulate matter in air, seriously affecting townscape and landscape. Construction dust nuisance will make nearby buildings and houses covered with dust and cause impact on the tidiness of residential area environment. During pipeline construction, road excavation, pipe material transportation and handling as well as site repair and construction will generate dust nuisance to cause impact on surrounding atmospheric environment. The dust nuisance generated from construction will generate some impact on the living of residents and growing of vegetation along the line, and the impact on the atmospheric environment can be reduced through strengthening construction management. Dust nuisances during pipeline construction period mainly come from the following aspects: [I] Sqil turning during large-quantity earth excavation and filling process generates dust nuisance; [2] Surface vegetation damage and soil looseness in large-area excavation zone generates dust nuisance; [3] Poor construction detour, vehicle rolling and vegetation and soil damage generate-dust nuisance; [4] Bad sealing of such wastes as spoil and waste materials during transportation leaks dust; [5] The dust spilled on construction site, constructipn detour and surrounding area forms secondary pollution of ground dust fall when vehicles run through or wind blows. According to analogy investigation analysis, it can be regarded that: [1] Pipeline construction has dust nuisance pollution problem and the major impacted area is construction and surrounding area: TSP and dust fall exceed standard to some extent; [2] The impact degree of dust nuisance in different operation processes is greatly different, the construction process that has greatest impact is earthwork excavation and filling and earth and stone transportation, unloading and levelingz through construction detour, and the construction process with the smallest impact is pipeline I 22 laying; [3] Dust nuisance is related to environmental management and environmental protection scheme during construction period. When pipeline is constructed in the section near residential area, it is necessary to promptly spray water to reduce the impact of construction dust nuisance on the living of urban resitients; when pipeline is constructed in the farmland section, if it is in crop flowering pollination period, it is also necessary to take appropriate environmental protection measure to prevent the impact of construction dust nuisance on the production of crops.

2) Waste gas impact analysis during construction period

Major sources of construction waste gases include: waste gas emission from various oil burning machineries such as wheel loader, dump truck and excavator, tail gas generated by transportation vehicles and waste gas emission from cooking range in temporary canteen for construction team. Major pollutants of construction waste gases are: NOX, CO and hydrocarbon (HC) etc. The discharge amount of these pollutants is small and it only has some impact on construction personnel and has minor impact on regional environment. 4.2.1.2 Atmospheric pollution prevention and control measure during construction period

(1)Dust nuisance prevention and control measure

Raw water catchment and conveyance project and water purification plant project During construction of raw water catchment and conveyance project and water purification plant project, it is necessary to: Q0imnplement construction process environmental monitoring system and project tendering contract must contain the clauses of dust prevention and refuse burning prohibition; (Orationally organize construction and schedule to reduce piling time of temporary excavated earth, (a)spray some water to the surface of earth piles to prevent dust nuisance when continuous fair weather is encountered during construction or in case.of wind and construction company shall implement cleaning system, A)Tharden temporary road and construction site and site thickness and strength shall meet the need of construction and vehicle running. Site and road shall be flat and smooth with appropriate environmental protection measures and environmental signs provided; (C_periodically compact ground ahd spray water to clean ground so as to reduce dust pollution to the surrounding environment for the unhardened location due to other reasons; 'Prationally set the location of excavation waste dump and plant vegetation in the exposed area of excavation waste dump. Clean water conveyance main pipe project and urban water distribution ring network proiect Besides the dust prevention measures taken for raw water catchment and conveyance project and water purification plant project, clean water conveyance main pipe project and urban water distribution ring network project shall take the following measures in urban ring network:

I1Clean water conveyance main pipe project and urban water distribution ring network shall use wind shield, such as corrugated sheet or polypropylene sheet on the two sides of pipe network construction area, on the two sides of construction section in urban area to prevent dust nuisance spreading from causing impact on

123 residents in urban area; 02 When construction is carried out in the road section where vehicles and residents pass by, it is necessary to separate the temporary excavated earth to avoid vehicle rolling; 03 In the construction site in the planned urban area, densely populated area, scenic area, summer cottage area, and national, provincial and municipal culture relics protection areas, it is necessary to formulate water-spray dust reduction regulations and equip sprinkler equipment and appoint special person to be responsible for it. In the seasons when dust nuisance tends to occur, it is necessary to spray water to reduce dust. (AAlways spray water to reduce dust nuisance pollution when demolishing old buildings. (®)Whentransportation vehicles enter urban area, they must be washed clean before going to the road. (®)Thedust emission cause by wind in dry season and machinery during contraction will influence the residential areas and factories along the project. Water should be sprayed on the accumulated earth in clear days with wind to prevent the influence of dust emission on environment around. The construction companies should establish sweeping system on the site. OThe cement and other fine practical material that are subject to fly should be stored in house or covered tightly. Their transportation should avoid leak and emission. Their handling should be carried out with water spreading or in the storage house. (2) Construction waste gas prevention and control measure Prevention and control measures for construction waste gas include: c.DAII fume exhaust facilities such as furnaces, kilns, cooking ranges and power generators must use acceptable products and emission of harmful gases must conform to related national standard. (®Refuseburning is prohibited on construction site. )The construction process in which hannful gases and dusts are ernitted shall use enclosed production equipment and technology and install ventilation, dust absorption, purification and recovery facilities. The content of harmful gases and dusts in work environment must conformn to the regulations of national industrial hygienic standard. (A)Strengthen construction vehicle service and maintenance and prohibit the use of the vehicles that are beyond service and whose tail gases exceed standard. Try to use the construction vehicles with low oil consumption and small emission and try to select and use high quality fuel oil to reduce emission of harmful gases from machinery and vehicles. 4.2.2 Water environmental impact analysis and pollution prevention and control measure during construction period 4.2.2.1 Water environmental impact analysis during construction period

1) Environmental impact analysis of production wastewater

(1) Raw water catchment and conveyance project and water purification plant project Construction and production wastewater of raw water catchment and conveyance project and water purification plant project is mainly produced from sandstone production system and concrete mixing system as well as construction machinery maintenance and washing wastewater. Sandstone production wastewater is mainly material washing wastewater with great quantity and sand content can reach 4-70kgim,. Concrete mixing wastewater and concrete placement wastewater are the strongly alkaline wastewater generated from the process of

124 concrete production and its main pollution control indices are SS and pH. SS can be removed after sedimentation and can basically reach the standard and be discharged. Washing wastewater for machinery and vehicle maintenance mainly contains mud and sand and oil stain and its main pollution control indices are SS and petroleum.lf production wastewater is not treated, water resource will be wasted and environment will be polluted.. According to estimation, wastewater discharge is about lOOm3/d. Treatment devices are located in concrete mixing system, grit processing system and construction machinery maintenance parking station in the seven construction areas. Production wastewater can reach the standard and be discharged after treatment and has small impact on water environment. Construction of water inlet is in Jiaokou Reservoir. As there is cofferdam, production wastewater will enter the reservoir to pollute reservoir water. Therefore construction and production water at water inlet must be recovered and undergo sedimentation treatment to reach standard before distharge. Production wastewater is not allowed to enter reservoir. In addition, This project is in the river valley in mountainous region and seepage water exists. In addition, there are construction waste water and massif water seepage in tunnels. It is necessary to always use ZBl9 water pump to pump drain the water during construction period. The pollutants in the discharged wastewater mainly are suspended matters with small water quantity and will be discharged after preliminary treatment.

(2) Clean water conveyance main pipe project and urban water distribution ring network project

The construction wastewater impact of clean water conveyance main pipe project and urban water distribution ring network project includes the impact of pipe cleaning wastewater and the impact of river course construction on river water quality.

Sectional pressure test pipes during pipe construction need to be cleaned after pressure test is passed. Water used for cleaning must be clean and all openings of the cleaned pipe section must be plugged to prevent secondary pipe pollution. When cleaning, it is necessary to clean pipes in the pipe slope direction to discharge contaminated water. When the whole pipe is cleaned, it is necessary to ensure that discharged cleaning water does not contain sand beads and discharged water quality approximates washing water quality. Discharged cleaning water shall not leak into pipe foundation ditch and foundation. Mud valve on pipes can be used to discharge water to nearby streams. The main pollutants of cleaning wastewater is suspended matter and basically contains no organic matter and inorganic salt, thus it can directly enter urban wastewater pipe.

Pipes will undergo final flushing after backfilling. Flushing shall be made by utilizing the reachable flow rate in the pipe until the water at the inlet is the same as the water at the outlet through. visual observation. Depending on actual situation, final flushing water shall be reutilized as much as possible to be used for road water spray or other purposes.

In addition, pipe bridge work needs to build bearing pile loundation and construction needs to be done in

river course, thus it has some impact on water quality of river course. This impact is mainly agitation of bottom material which increases SS content of river water, but SS can settle naturally. If construction is carried in the bed mud part that may cause serious pollution, it is necessarv to pay attention to the disposal of pollution soil.

2) Environmental impact analysis of domestic wastesvater personnel Construction domestic wastewater is produced by management personnel and construction wastewater are BOD5, entering the site during construction period. The main pollution control indices of domestic construction period, CODCr, NH3-N and SS etc and its discharge is regular. Based on 1,600 people in peak 3 3 of domestic water consumption per person everyday is 0.05m , 80m in total, and average daily discharge 3 project, water domestic wastewater is 56m . The domestic wastewater of raw water'catchment and conveyance with integrated purification plant project and clean water conveyance main pipe shall be collected and treated domestic domestic wastewater treatment equipment to reach the standard and be discharged; construction wastewater in urban area can be directly discharged into urban wastewater pipe.

(3) Analysis of the impact of water works construction on Maojiaping Reservoir reservoir was Maojiaping Reservoir is situated southwest of the water purification plant site and this small of rural once the drinking water source for nearby villages (Daqiao Village, Meixi Village). After reconstruction (belonging to water network, drinking water for nearby villages is all supplied by rural water supply network detour and site Yinjiang Town). When this water works is constructed, the disposal of spoil for construction construction is leveling is in the northeast of the works site. As long as management is strengthened, civilized downstream river network carried, production and domestic wastewater is properly disposed and discharged into and transported and after treated to be up to standard, and domestic waste is centrally collected and cleared the construction disposed by local environmental sanitation department through entrustment during construction, period will not cause pollution impact on it. 4.2.2.2 Water pollution prevention and control measure during construction period

1) Production wastewater prevention and control measure

Construction production wastewater prevention and control measures for this project include: contract must Implement construction process environmental monitoring system and project tendering contain clauses of water pollution prevention;

Wastewater of Maojiaping Water Works shall try to be treated by the dynamic treatment method; mixer and the When mixing work is carried out on site, it is necessary to set sedimentation tank in front of be discharged to transportation vehicle cleaning location, and wastewater shall undergo sedimentation and then urban wastewater pipejine or recovered for water spray dust removal; for warehouse, When oil materials are stored on site, it is necessary to carry out leakage prevention treatment polluting water and storage and use shall have measures to prevent leakage and dripping 6f oil materials from body; bottom by Construction of river course shall be made by using cofferdam method to reduce agitation of river construction;

Construction of river course shall be carried out in dry flow period.

2) Domestic wastewater prevention and control measure can be Construction drainage must conform to drainage regulations. Domestic wastewater in urban area to directly enter directly discharged into urban wastewater system and the domestic wastewater that is impossible urban wastewater system must be treated to reach the standard before discharge. 126 Dumping of refuse and waste residues to all water areas is forbidden so as to protect such water areas as river, lake, sea and reservoir around the project.

(3) Protection measure of Maojiaping Reservoir

Wastewater and domestic refuses are not allowed to be discharged into Maojiaping Reservoir at will. In case of continuous sunny days or wind during construction period, it is necessary to spray water to temporary road and earth piles to prevent dust and at the same time, construction organization shall carry out cleaning system to try to reduce SS increase of the water in Maojiaping Reservoir due to dust nuisance.

Water purification plant is situated on hillside and smooth blasting method will be used to excavate side slope and fill ravine. As estimated by feasibility study, the quantity of earth and stone generated from side slope excavation is almost equal to that for ravine filling, thus waste spoil will not be produced basically. However, due to excessive excavation, some working faces may be provided with temporary excavation waste dump. It is suggested that waste spoil be transported promptly and not be thrown into reservoir. 4.2.3 Noise impact analysis and prevention and control measure during construction period 4.2.3.1 Main noise source during construction period

Construction noise generated from the project is mainly the noise produced from various construction machineries and transportation vehicles. The noise generated from explosion is sporadic noise that lasts for short time and will not affect the people out of the explosion safe distance.

Accordinig to analogy investigation, noise emission results of various construction machineries and vehicles are shown in table 4-2.

4.2.3.2 Noise impact analysis during construction period

1) Raw water catchment and conveyance project and water purification plant project

Main construction work of raw water catchment and conveyance project and water purification plant project is far from cities and there is only a small quantity of residents nearby. According to noise prediction, the predicted noise values at different distances are shown in table 4-3.

Table 4-3 Predicted noise values at different distances during construction period

127 Noise analogy Main construction value dB(A) Predicted noise value at different machineries vat Sm) distances dB(A) (at 5m) 10 20 80 16 65 m m m Om 0 Hand pneumatic drill 86 80 74 62 56 44 (manual excavation) Air compressor 82 76 70 58 52 40 Winch 73 67 61 49 43 31 Excavator 78 72 66 54 48 36 Wheel loader 80 74 68 56 50 38 Concrete mixing 76 70 64 52 46 34 station Concrete vibrator 88 82 76 64 58 46 Dump truck 82 76 70 58 52 40 Water pump 78 72 66 54 48 36

Referring the above predicted value to "Noise Limit for Construction Site" (GB12523-90), impact distance of construction machinery noise in daytime is usually 40m and basically reaches standard value (55 dB(A)) at 200m at night. Water purification plant is situated on hillside and is 200m from the nearest sensitive point, thus it is not greatly affected by construction noise and the environmental noise can meet the Class I daytime standard (55 dB (A)) in the "Standard of environmental noise of urban area" (GB3096-93). However, in order to prevent construction noise at night from disturbing residents, it is necessary to strengthen management and strictly observe the regulations and requirements in "Noise Limit for Construction Site" (GB12523-90). It is suggested that advanced construction technology and low noise equipment be adopted and construction time be reasonably arranged to try to avoid concurrent construction of a large number of high noise equipment and to arrange noisy construction in daytime. For the noise resulting from explosion when massif blasting is conducted during construction, as it is sporadic and lasts for a short time, people outside the explosion safety distance will not be affected. Therefore, as long as blasting is not carried out at night, it will not have great impact on surrounding acoustic environment. 2) Clean water conveyance main pipe project and urban water distribution ring network project Clean water conveyance main pipe project needs to run through Hengjie Town and Guilin Yujia Village. Noise during construction period mainly comes from construction machinery, transponation of building materials and construction pipe foundation treatment. Construction noise may have some impact on the residents in Hengjie Town and Guilin Yujia Village, and especially at night construction noise will cause resident interference problem to some extent and affect the work and rest of nearby residents. As urban water distribution ring network project is carried out in city, many passengers come to and go from construction site, and there are such sensitive points as residential areas and schools, some of which are only 5m from construction area. construction noise will affect people's normal living environment.,

128 According to regulations in "Noise Limit for Construction Site" GB12523-90, daytime noise limit is 65-85dB and night noise limit is 55dB. After prediction and analbgy analysis, it is concluded that construction machinery noise in daytime at 40m from construction site can reach the standard limit value and can basically reach standard value (55 dB(A)) at 200m at night. Pipeline of this project is basically laid along highway and environmental noise on the two sides of highway executes Class IV standard in the "Standard of Environmental Noise of Urban Area" (GB3096-93) (i.e. 70dB (A) in daytime and 55dB (A) at night), thus impact on relatively close sensitive points along the line is relatively small in daytime, but environmental noise at night will greatly exceed standard and cause great disturbance to the rest of residents along the line. Therefore in the area where the project passes by residential buildings, construction work that may produce noise pollution to residents' living environment shall be prohibited at night (after 22:00). In case continuous work is necessary due to special need, the certificate issued by people's government above county level or by other competent departments must be obtained and residents must be informed with bulletin to obtain their understanding. 4.2.3.3 Noise control measure during construction period

Noise at construction site has great impact on environment, thus the construction company shall take noise prevention and control measures. Noise control in construction stage must meet GB12525-90 "Noise Limit for Construction Site" to minimize the impact of noise on surrounding residents. For different sub-projects, the key points of prevention and control measures are different.

1) Raw water catchment and conveyance project and water purification plant project

(1) When formulating construction plan, it is necessary to try to avoid simultaneous use of a large quantity of high-noise equipment for construction. In addition, high noise construction shall try to be arranged in daytime to reduce construction work at night. Night piling and transportation shall be prohibited. When vehicles pass by villages, try not to use horns. (2) Avoid the arrangement of a large quantity of power mechanical equipment in the same construction location to avoid locally over-high noise. If conditions permit, try to keep high noise equipment away from sensitive areas. (3) In equipment type selection, try to adopt low noise equipment such as substitution of hydraulic machinery for oil burning machinery and use of high frequency vibrator. For stationary mechanical equipment and earth excavation and transportation machinery.such as excavator and bulldozer, noise can be reduced by using exhaust pipe silencer and by separating engine vibrating parts. Power mechanical equipment shall be periodically repaired and maintained. Equipment operation noise level is often increased due to vibration of loose parts and silencer. Idle equipment shall be immediately stopped and transportation vehicles shall slow down and reduce the use of horn when entering the site. (4) Try to reduce the use of whistle, clock and horn for direction of work and use modernized communication equipment to substitute for them. Operate mechanical equipment according to regulations and reduce manmade noise. (5) A small quantity of blasting work may be encountered in earthwork excavation. Although blasting work * has instantaneous impact, blasting noise is great and has great impact on site construction personnel and nearby villagers. Therefore blasting work is prohibited at night.

129 2) Clean water conveyance main pipe project and urban water distribution ring network project

As pipeline of this project needs to pass through residential areas such as Hengjie Town and the sensitive points such as schools and hospitals, it is necessary to ensure the following treatment and control measures:

cPublicize environmental protection requirement in construction section and set up and publicize hot line for customers' complaints about project interference;

(Z)Selection of construction time. Construction is prohibited from 10:00 PM to 6:00 AM in the construction section where there are residents within lOOm along the pipeline .

&Limit the use of high noise construction equipment.

®)Compensation for the residents near construction location.

(5) Transport vehicle horn, engine sound, concrete mnixer sound and pile driving for foundation treatment etc will cause impact of environmental noise. In order to ensure the quality of acoustic environment in residential area and effectively control the environmental noise pollution in construction site and surrounding areas, it is necessary to carry out construction by stages and try to shorten construction period. In the area near residential area, it is necessary to use advanced construction technology and low noise equipment and rationally arrange construction time to safeguard the people's health in noise sensitive areas. 4.2.4 Solid waste impact analysis and prevention and control measure during construction period 4.2.4.1 Solid waste impact analysis during construction period

Main solid wastes during construction are construction domestic refuse and construction waste residues. Construction waste residues include building waste materials, waste earth and other solid wastes. If domestic refuses in construction area is not properly managed, it will cause propagation of mosquitoes and flies and even breakout of epidemic diseases to workers in construction area, and additionally nearby residents will be affected by mosquitoes and flies, odor and diseases. Construction wastes will be collected, cleared and transported by the construction company to the designated location for treatment. This section mainly analyzes the environmental impact caused by construction wastes of this project.

1) Raw water catchment and conveyance project

As raw water catchment and tunnel conveyance project has many buildings and needs to excavate tunnel, a great deal of earthwork may be produced during project construction and the main construct waste is waste earth.

The main buildings of this project are water inlet, intake tunnel and collecting well etc. The total excavation of earth and stone during construction of raw water catchment and tunnel conveyance project is 246,800m3, including 50.000m3 earth, 48,400m3 open cut stone and 148,400m3 tunnel rocks. Considering stone bulk factor 1.3, the total waste will be 305,800m3, of which 195,100m3 from water inlet, Jiangao, Wangjiaao and Daoao working faces is transported out and used for urban construction of Ningbo City, l0,000m3 is utilized for this water diversion project and construction waste residues are 100,600m3.

For waste spoil produced from construction, its main environmental impact is the occupation of some land. This project will build four excavation waste dumps for mucks, which occupy 61mu land. and present land is forest land. Land occupation by excavation waste dump will affect the growth of vegetation in the muck stacking area and weaken the original water and soil conservation capability accordingly. in case heavy rain washes away

130 mud and soil, water and soil erosion will be exasperated and dust nuisance will be produced. If no necessary prevention measure is taken for the site, the mucks may be washed by rainwater and flood into river course to cause river course siltation in thunderstorm season and raise water level to affect flood safety. Therefore it is necessary to well carry out water and soil conservation work for excavation waste dump.

2) Water purification plant project I

As water purification plant is situated on hill side, smooth blasting is used, side slope is excavated and ravine reclamation is made. Although a large quantity of earth and stone is produced during project construction, waste residues will not be generated as the quantity of earth and stone from side slope excavation is basically same as that from ravine reclamation.

During construction of water purification plant, waste building materials, industrial surplus materials and leftover refuses will be produced. These solid wastes will be collected and reutilized by the construction company and the owner and those unable to be utilized can be transported to the designated location for safe landfill.

3) Clean water conveyance main pipe project and urban water distribution ring network project

The main solid wastes produced by clean water conveyance main pipe project and urban water distribution ring network project during construction period are temporary construction earth piles and domestic refuses.

In project construction, temporary earth piles may be made on the two sides of channels due to earthwork excavation. If management is improper, dust nuisance and sandstorm may be caused in case of wind to affect the environment. Pipeline construction belongs to linear engineering without wide-range excavation surface and temporary piled earth will be used for backfill and original land function will be restored. After completion of construction, temporary piled earth will not generate environmental impact. 4.2.4.2 Solid waste prevention and control measure during construction period

1) Treatment of construction waste residues and earth

To reduce soil erosion caused by waste residues, it is necessary to try to reduce land occupation by waste residues and temporary waste residues during construction. The excavated earth and stone shall be sufficiently utilized. Design of this project has made preliminary balance for earth and stone, and earth and stone from tunnel excavation shall try to be used as concrete aggregate. For the redundant part, this project will set four excavation waste dumps for treatment. Considering land occupation and transportation, excavation waste dumps are arranged near residue outlet so as to reduce land occupation by temporary construction road and transportation distance and alleviate environmental pollution and ecological damage. Table 4-4 shows the situation of the four planned excavation waste dumps.

In order to reduce soil and water erosion of excavation waste dump, grouted rubble retaining wall for blocking will be built outside the excavation waste dump before waste residues are discarded to maintain the basic stability of excavation waste dump. Layered waste discarding is made and compaction is made while discarding. In order to reduce erosion to waste residues by surrounding accumulated water, drainage facilities will be built around the excavation waste dump to discharge the surrounding accumulated water. The top and side slope of excavation waste dump will be leveled, covered with soil and completely restored to forest land or be protected by means of landscaping after completion of waste discarding. For the specific prevention and control measures of soil and water erosion for the four excavation waste dumps, refer to 4.2.7 "Soil and water erosion impact analysis and prevention measure during construction period". 3 The total waste of this project is 305,800m and design of this project has made preliminary balance for earth and stone, and earth and stone from tunnel excavation shall be used as concrete aggregate. This project and 3 Ningbo urban construction will utilize totally 205,100m waste residues and the remaining part will be transported to the above four excavation waste dump for disposal. As excavation waste dump will occupy forest land, improper protection of waste soil will cause dust nuisance and possibly soil and water erosion etc, it is suggested that waste residues be comprehensively utilized as much as possible. Waste residues mainly come from stones produced from tunnel excavation of raw water catchment and tunnel conveyance project and can be used to fill and level up road and bottom.land for the building construction and road construction of the projects being built and planned in Dongqiao Town in Yinxi area where the project is located. For earth work, as it is excavated fresh soil uncontamninated by construction, it can be used to repair farmland and green belt or cover refuse site to reduce the quantity of waste residues as much as possible.

2) Treatment of building wastes and industrial surplus materials

The solid wastes such as building wastes and industrial surplus materials during construction are from diversified sources'and of various kinds. Construction organization and the owner shall first consider reutilization or sales. If not possible, construction organization shall contact local waste soil office to deliver it to the designated location for disposal.

3) Treatment measure of construction domestic refuses

Construction organization will provide domestic refuse container, collecting equipment and transport vehicles. Construction organization shall appoint cleaning personnel to collect, clear up and transport construction domestic refuses to the location for disposal designated by local environmental sanitation department

4) Other measures

I 32 When poisonous and harmful wastes are encountered during construction, temporarily stop construction and contact local environmental protection and sanitary authorities. When they have taken treatment measures, construction can be continued.

Vehicle overloading is prohibited. Vehicles carrying solid wastes shall prevent spillage of wastes.

5)Disposal of wastes in construction site

Engineering construction need a large number of workers and the quantity of actually needed workers depends on the degree of mechanization of construction company. Construction of water purification plant may be possibly divided into several parts which are carried out simultaneously. Construction company will provide temporary accommodation for workers in temporary working area. Project developer and construction company shall contact local environmental sanitation department to timely clear away domestic wastes in construction site. Construction company shall strengthen education for construction personnel not to litter about wastes so as to ensure the sanitary quality of workers' working and living environment.

6) Advocacy of civilized construction

Construction company is required to try to reduce the impact on surrounding residents, factories and schools during construction, advocate civilized construction, and realize "people caring project". It is necessary to hold liaison meeting with Construction Company, sub-district office and the owner to promptly coordinate and resolve environmental impact problems in construction.

7)Formulation of waste treatment and transport plan

Construction Company, jointly with the department concerned, will formulate disposal plan for wastes of this project. It can contact related transport department for transport plan and vehicle transport shall avoid rush hours. Project developer, jointly with transport department, shall carry out professional ethics education for drivers to make them transport the wastes according to specified lines, and shall check plan execution at irregular intervals.

If poisonous or hazardous wastes is encountered during construction, it is necessary to stop construction temporarily and promptly contact local environmental protection and sanitation departments and continue construction after they have taken treatment measures. 4.2.5 Ecological environmental impact analysis and prevention, and control measure during construction period 4.2.5.1 Ecological environmental impact analysis during construction period

Impact of this project on ecological environment during construction period mairly includes the impact of raw water catchment and conveyance project construction on reservoir aquatic ecosystem. impact of excavation waste dump on forest land ecology, impact of tunnel construction on temporarily used forest land, impact of permanently occupied land by water purification plant project, and impact of clean water conveyance main pipe and urban water distribution ring network project on forest land ecosystem, agricultural ecosvstem, river aquatic ecosystem and soil ecology.

1) Impact analysis of reservoir and river aquatic ecosystem

133 During construction of raw water catchment and conveyance project, some mud and sand may enter reservoir to affect reservoir water quality and ecological environment. When pipes run through rivers and fish used ponds, they may cause some impact on bottom materials of rivers and fish ponds if pipe sinking method is for for construction. When running through Huangzhi River, underwater excavation and burying method is used construction in river course, which will disturb bottom materials of rivers and cause some impact. after Impact on aquatic ecosystem is mainly because content of suspended substances in water increases of entry of mud and sand or agitation of bottom materials. From aquatic ecosystem point of view, increase of suspended substances weakens euphotic layer thickness in water body so that it reduces primary productivity of living water body and causes decrease of phytoplankton biomass, which generates impact on the quantity suspended beings in the higher-level biological chain, e.g. reduction of fish biomass. At the same time, excessive test result substances generate significant inhibiting effect on the survival of caridoid larva. With reference to the generate of suspended sediment toxic effect on aquatic organisms, when suspended sediment reaches 9mg/l, it will some impact on the survival rate of zooplankton and photosynthesis of phytoplankton.

2) Impact analysis of forestry ecosystem and agricultural ecosystem

The main impact of this project on forest ecosystem and agricultural ecosystem is mainly manifested in the Land land occupation by raw water catchment and conveyance project and water purification plant project. occupation by the project is divided into permanent land occupation and temporary land occupation.

This project will make a permanent requisition of 213mu collectively owned land including 200mu for land Maojiaping Water Works (of which 140mu is for plant area) and 13mu for tunnel portal. Temporary occupation is totaly 1,561.32mu, of which 11 Imu is for raw water catchment and conveyance project, including is for 50mu for construction site such as living buildings, warehouses and construction shop facilities, and 61mu The present excavation waste dump, including 78mu mountain forest, 22mu farmland and I Imu fritillary land, land of excavation waste dump is forest.

Permanent land occupation directly changes original surface configuration and present land utilization to situation and causes permanent loss of biological productivity, ecological environment being impossible damage recover. Temporary land occupation changes the original surface configuration and results in vegetation farmland and farmland deterioration in a certain penod. Its direct impact on agricultural ecological environment is ecological occupation and resultant agricultural loss. With project retirement and manual landscape and restoration, the biological productivity and original land utilization function can be restored to some extent. very Although this project occupies some land, the proportion of various land occupation in existing land is utilization low Therefore land occupation by this project will not bring significant adverse effect on local land structure.

3) Vegetation damage and animal impact

Vegetation damage and animal impact during construction can be divided into permanent habitat damage, habitat disturbance and temporary habitat disturbance.

(1) Permanent habitat damage

l134 Excavation of intake tunnel involves 12 working faces and will permanently occupy some forest land. Plants will be felled and vegetation will be affected, causing damage to bird habitat.

The region where site of water purification plant is selected belongs to low mountain hill and existing hillside vegetation coverage is sparse and is mainly shrubbery. Construction may cause unrecoverable damage of some habitats, for example, felling plants causes damage to bird habitat.

During project construction, if original vegetation in the selected site area is basically damaged, the birds, insects and reptiles (e.g. snake) that rely on these plants as habitat will completely disappear.

(2) Habitat disturbance

During project construction, activities of the construction company and construction noise may disturb the living beings in the scope of work. Due to disturbance by human activities, some animals may temporarily leave to evade human activities and vegetation damage in construction area will force animals to leave for surrounding areas. Such disturbance will not cause reduction of animal species and quantity and its impact is transient.

(3) Temporary habitat disturbance

Some sudden manmade incidents during construction will cause disturbance to ecological environment in this region, but such disturbance is recoverable. Generally, covering soil on top of pipes is usually 2.0-2.5m deep. Therefore as long as restoration of vegetation above pipes after pipe burial is carried out, original habitat will not be greatly affected.

During construction of clean water conveyance main pipe, in order to lay pipes, excavation and backfill will be made to forest land and farmland and excavation will cause impact on vegetation ecological environment. After backfilling, forest land and farmland can be basically restored to original ecological level.

4) Construction impact on soil environment

Main soil type along the line of the planned project is clay. Soil is a type of complicated complex of inorganic and organic substances and is composed of mineral substances, water, air and living organism while good condition of water, manure, air, heat and cultivation determines the extent of soil fertility. Construction activities will surely affect soil physicochemical property and soil structure to cause soil environment.

(1) Impact on soil structure

Soil structure is the combined situation of various soil layers in soil profile, and characteristic and physicochemucal property of different soil layers differ greatly. As long as structure is concerned, top soil density is moderate with better micro aggregate structure and good hair canal performance and bottom subsoil is relatively tight and heavy. In terms of nutrient, top soil is much better than subsoil layer and it has high content of organic matter, total nitrogen, and rapidly available phosphorus and potassium nutrients. Its density and oore situation is moderate and it has strong soil workability, and active microorganisms. Pipe construction will surely disturb and orniinal soil structure and make original soil layer combination disordered, causing mixing of immature soil mellow soil, aggregate structure damage, soil capillary breakage, adverse change of microorganism species and quantity and inability to well decompose and release soil nutrients. As a result, soil nature is deteriorated and ground vegetation growth is further affected and even difficult to restore.

135 (2) Impact on soil density density. Excessively loose When pipes are backfilled after buried, it is usually difficult to restore original soil layer apparently collapse to form backfill will cause infiltration of irrigation and precipitation and make and infiltration of water. As a result, groove; and excessively dense backfill will affect growth of plant root system is difficult to restore into the production soil productivity level above pipe and adjacent section will decrease and level before construction. personnel and rolling by material In addition, during pipeline construction period, treading by construction of top soil on the two sides of pipes and transportation vehicles and heavy machinery will also cause over-density on the growth of plants. reduce soil permeability and water permeability, generating adverse impact 4.2.5.2 Prevention and control measure

1) Aquatic ecological environmental protection measure generate some impact. Therefore Construction in river course will disturb bottom material of rivers and the selection of construction time and during river construction period, it is necessary to pay attention to operation time and restore original construction method. River excavation shall be in dry flow period to shorten river appearance as soon as possible. impact on river water quality. Agitation absorption type dredger shall be used in river dredging to reduce to prevent machinery oil stain Underwater construction machinery shall be kept clean during construction restore natural ground and carry out from polluting water body. After completion of construction, immediately waste materials and surface cleanings river obstacle clearing work to facilitate river flood drainage. Construction transported or disposed according to shall not be dumped near water body and shall be promptly cleared and regulations. measure 2) Forestry ecological environmental and agricultural ecological protection

(1) Forestry ecological environmental protection measure to reduce the resultant forest Earthwork excavation area in tunnel construction shall be strictly controlled strictly according to forest felling land damage. During construction, it is necessary to clear surface vegetation at will. plan and not to increase felling quantity and area and change felling object shall be taken to compensate for At the same time, the measure of forest restoration in different location forest loss caused by construction. and the top and side slope of Waste residues will be comprehensively utilized as much as possible restored to forest land or be protected by excavation waste dump will be leveled, covered with soil and completely of water purification plant, it is means of landscaping after completion of waste discarding. After completion plant various trees, climbing plants and necessary to increase in-plant forestation area, well conduct landscaping, On the interior of enclosing wall of herbal plants and arrange building ornament to improve landscaping quality. area. Plant area forestation rate is 307 plant area, shrubs with strong absorption are arranged to form an isolated

(2) Agricultural ecological environmental protection measure

13h Optimize configuration scheme of construction detour to reduce temporary land occupation and quantity of occupied farmland.

During construction in farmland section, construction vehicles shall try to utilize existing road so as to build as few construction detours as possible and shall run strictly according to designed construction detours to protect crops and surface vegetation.

To reduce impact of construction dust nuisance on agricultural production, construction activities shall try to avoid crop pollination period. If it is difficult to avoid the period, it is necessary to spray water to construction site. In addition, it is necessary to strengthen construction management and actively advocate civilized construction.

Construction period shall try to avoid rush period (mainly seedling time and harvesting time). If it is difficult to avoid such period, arrange traveling route in advance for farmers' agricultural production and set conspicuous guide sign on temporary route.

Vehicles transporting road materials and waste earth must be covered with tarpaulin to prevent occurrence of dust nuisance. Road materials piled on construction site shall also be covered with tarpaulin. Excavation work is forbidden in gale and heavy rain weather.

3) Vegetation and animal protection measure

In construction, try to retain the vegetation in the selected site area and ensure work is carried out in the range of red line diagram to prevent enlargement of ecological interference zone and alleviate ecological interference degree.

Landscaping shall be made in the selected site area for tunnel construction and water purification plant and additionally land for buildings and roads shall try to use as less existing open space as possible to reduce manmade impact on space.

The area near water purification plant must undergo ecological restoration work, which is mainly to rebuild suitable vegetation and biocommunity, restore ecological landscape and avoid and mitigate aesthetic defect and natural environmental damage. Build environmental protection responsibility system, perfect management system, and determine management and supervision personnel to carry out effective supervision for and prevention from the rough construction and the behaviors against operating rules.

4) Soil environmental protection measure

To reduce impact of pipe trench excavation and filling on soil, the construction method of layered excavation, layered piling and layered earth covering can be used and pollution prevention and control measure can be taken to eliminate the impact of waste material and wastewater on soil during construction. Therefore. although this project has relatively great impact on the soil in the construction work range during constructiol and needs some time to restore the soil, these impacts can be reduced to the acceptable degree by taking strict management measures. In addition, pipeline construction work is usually limited to the narrow strip shaped range and work tinme is short. thus it will not involve surrounding areas and has small impact on regional ecological environment.

Furthermiore, on the north of water works is massif higher than the elevation of water works. Considerin2 flood prevention safety of the water works, flood prevention trench is provided outside the enclosing wall on the

137 north of the water works to collect and discharge rain water to the low valleys on the two sides of the water works. This is also conducive to the prevention of soil erosion.

5) Mitigation measure for ecological impact on construction site

Generally, the covering soil depth for pipeline is 2.0 - 2.5m. Therefore, it will have little impact after recovering the vegetation after backfilling. Some measures may also used to relieve their impacts on ecological system. Measures must be taken to protect the water and soil resources during construction with reducing the damage on vegetation to minimum. The construction companies must take compensative measures to correct or recover the damages on ecological environmental. All the temporary facilities must be removed while the site must be clean before the withdrawal from site. The plantation activities should also be performed.

6)Maojiaping Water Plant

The measures taken are to increase green belts in all possible way with planting of multiple kinds of trees, climbing plants and grass. The landscape building should also be arranged to improve the landscape. The shrubbery with strong absorption ability and resistance to pollutant should be planted along the inside perimeter of the enclosure to form an isolation belt. The stipulated plant ratio in plant area is 30%. The plantation task undertaken by construction companies must be detailed stipulated in contractual term with guarantee on living ratio. 4.2.5.3Tacking and monitoring of recovering of ecological environment

The tracing and monitoring should be performed on the vegetation community ecological index after the taking of relieving and recovering measures on ecological environment to collect information on the recovering results, especially on the improvement of soil erosion. The ecological situations in this area may measured with the status of biodiversity and biological mass. 4.2.6 Groundwater environmental impact analysis and prevention and control measure during construction period 4.2.6.1 Groundwater environmental impact analysis during construction period

According to the project composition analysis, impact.may be caused to the groundwater environment during construction of water catchment, conveyance tunnel, clean water conveyance line and urban water distribution pipe network.

1) Raw water catchment and conveyance project

During construction of water catchment and conveyance tunnel, mainly the groundwater existing in lithoclase seeps to the construction working faces to cause water accumulation in working faces and affect construction. For this reason, it is necessary to carry out special drainage. Pumping drainage of groundwater may possibly cause drop of groundwater level.

As rock mass fissure development degree in the project area is low and rock stratum water containment is poor, fissure water is made up by atmospheric precipitation and water quantity is small. In addition, after completion of tunnel construction, grouting is carried out on the inner wall of tunnel. Grouting is carried out in the sequence of first backfill and then consolidation. Backfill grouting is carried out using the method of sequential compaction after lining concrete reaches 70% design strength and is constructed in two steps. Consolidation

138 grouting is constructed by the method of inter-ring sequence and intra-ring compaction and in-hole circulating one-time grouting method is used to avoid tunrrel water leakage. Thus it can be seen that manual pumping drainage of groundwater in tunnel construction will cause great drop of regional groundwater level.

As the quality of groundwater drained out from tunnel is usually good, it can be discharged into nearby streams after simple sedimentation treatment. However the groundwater containing waste oil produced from oily construction shall not be directly discharged into nearby rivers and needs treatment before discharge.

As waste residues piled in excavation waste dumps contain no poisonous and harmful substances, they will not pollute groundwater after anti-seepage and anti-leakage measures are taken.

2) Clean water conveyance main pipe and urban water distribution ring network project

During groove excavation for clean water conveyance main pipe and urban water distribution pipe network, groundwater may seep into grooves in the local section where groundwater level is shallow (less than 2m) and drainage is needed. As groove excavation depth is usually in 2m range and groove leak water is mostly phreatic water in loose sediment, it is made up by atmospheric precipitation and water quantity is small. Similarly, manual pumping drainage of groundwater will cause great drop of regional groundwater level and the discharged groundwater is usually discharged into nearby surface streams. 4.2.6.2 Groundwater pollution prevention and control measure during construction period

The project area is situated in the South river network region and surface water and groundwater are closely related, thus polluted groundwater is even more difficult to control. During construction, particularly domestic wastewater must be treated before discharge and shall not be treated by way of seepage pit to avoid pollution of groundwater.

During exploration and tunnel construction, if aquifer uncovering and penetration is needed, it is necessary to strictly carry out differential *shut of water and hole sealing work according to requirement of related specification to prevent pollution-of groundwater.

For waste residues piled in excavation waste dumps, it is necessary to confirm whether they have poisonous and harmful and dangerous solid wastes and take anti-seepage and anti-leakage measures. 4.2.7 Soil erosion impact analysis and environmental protection measure during construction period

1) Impact analysis

In the construction section (including transportation detour), due to treading by construction personnel and destruction of machinerv operation to surface vegetation and soil structure, area-by-area exposed land will be caused and soil erosion (including wind erosion and water erosion) will occur in case of rainstorm and gale weather.

During construction, various working surfaces (including material yard detour) tend to cause wind erosion under the action of wine force especially gale, which appears mainlv as construction dust nuisance. Cumulous soil generated from construction tends to cause sand dust by gales in spring and autumn due to soil looseness and cause soil and water erosion.

139 Due to loose earthwork in working face during excavation and filling work in construction period, new soil and water erosion tends to be caused under the action of rainwater and flood washing.

The present land of excavation waste dump is forest land. Land occupation by excavation waste dump will affect the growth of vegetation in the muck stacking area and weaken original water and soil conservation capability accordingly. In case heavy rain washes away mud and soil, water and soil erosion will be exasperated and dust nuisance will be produced.

When this construction is completed, as restoration of soil structure and natural vegetation in construction area needs some time, soil and water erosion along the line will continue. But with extension of time, change of soil structure, restoration of surface vegetation and completion of some protection such as forestation measure, revetment and other protection work, the range and impact degree of soil and water erosion will be gradually reduced.

(2) Prevention and control measure

For temporarily occupied land for the construction, after completion of construction, it is necessary to clean up the site and plant climbing. woody plant-bindwood-on the slope toe of cut surface of outlet and inlet of water conveyance tunnel and construction lateral tunnels. Earth produced from excavation of burial pipes shall be piled up on the nearby open space. Time for temporarily piled earth is relatively short and it is necessary to conduct temporary protection to prevent soil erosion. After earth is completely utilized for backfilling or discarded on excavation waste dump, it is necessary to carry out land re-cultivation to recover land resources. Coffer dam protection is needed at the inlet and outlet of respective tunnel sections to prevent water from flowing into tunnel to ensure safety of tunnel construction. Pipe construction for Jiangao section, Wangjiaao section and Daoao section shall adopt staged diversion by coffer dam and incoming water flows through narrow rivers. Coffer dam 3 uses straw bag coffer cam with amount of works being 1,500m . When this project is completed, it is.necessary to well carry out landscaping and beautifying work in the temporarily occupied land and project management area and promptly level the site and.plant trees to conserve water and soil and optimize ecology.

To reduce soil and water erosion caused by waste residues, it is necessary to reduce land occupation by waste residues and temporary waste residues during construction. New built road to the plant shall adopt the method of excavation and filling balance and try to reduce the production of waste residues. Design of this project has made preliminary balance for earth and stone, and earth and stone from tunnel excavation shall try to be used as concrete aggregate and the remaining part is discarded in nearby excavation waste dump. The project plans to build four excavation waste dumps. Respective excavation waste dumps will be provided with different protection means depending on the quantity of piled waste residues.

Stones produced from tunnel land for the raw water catchment and tunnel conveyance project can be used to fill and level up road and bottom Town in building construction and road construction of the projects being constructed and planned in Dongqiao by Yinxi area where the project is located. For earth work, as it is excavated fresh soil uncontanminated of waste construction, it can be used to repair farmland and green belt or cover refuse site to reduce the quantity residues as much as possible. 4.2.8 The affection on labor's health during construction

(1) Impact on people's health labor of The average labor number used during the construction of this project is 1200 person/day with peak one year. 1600 person/day. The total labor used is about 400,000 workdays. The total construction period is about densely During the construction, the bursting out of the contagious diseases is very easy happened because of the Therefore, used large amount of labors, limited construction site, unfavorable living conditions in working site. attention must by paid on the hygiene conditions in working area.

(2) Mitigation measure and During construction of the project, it is required to set medical and sanitary facilities in living quarters in water well conduct medical and sanitary work in the construction area; strengthen quarantine management of catchment and canteen to disinfect and monitor supply water sources and ensure environmental sanitation prohibit the construction area; carry out comprehensive physical exarmiination for construction personnel and diseases personnel having infectious diseases from entering construction site. The personnel having infectious canteen shall be separated and treated and the people around them shall be treated with prophylactic inoculation; diseases and staff shall undergo periodic physical examination and shall be treated if found to have epidemic transferred. from canteen to prevent outbreak of infectious diseases. 4.2.9 Social impact analysis and mitigation measure during construction period 4.2.9.1 Social impact analysis during construction period which During construction period, it will cause short term impact on the social environment along the line, mainly includes: of (I) Construction occupies farmland and road, which increases the load of existing road and affects travel nearby villagers; (2) Construction vehicles frequently pass by such densely populated areas such as villages and schools. which may possibly cause hidden trouble for local traffic accidents, (3) Uncivilized behaviors of some construction personnel may cause impact on local residents and crops. of The above impacts can be avoided to a great extent or completed eliminated through rational arrangement perfect construction plan and civilized construction. Therefore the construction company shall formulate construction plan and strictly require construction personnel to alleviate social impact caused by construction.

142 4.2.9.2 Mitigation measure for social impact caused by construction period

(1) Formulate traffic control plan in advance, issue announcement, rationally set combination of cross roads for the principal part of project and pipeline construction as well as temporary bypass road and minimize the enclosed construction period of major cross roads. Engineering construction will inevitably affect the traffic in this area. Project developer shall sufficiently consider this factor when formulating implementation scheme and shall avoid rush hours for the special bumper-to-bumper traffic road (e.g. adopt night transport to ensure smoothness in day time). (2) Reserve detour at the organizations, markets, farmland and residential areas on the two sides of the line as well as connection to other road networks, smooth passengers and vehicles to prevent traffic jam or use other means to notify related organizations of changing to other roads in advance and set conspicuous sign for temporary bypass route at main road junctions. (3) When construction is made in urban residential area and villages and towns, it is necessary to set duty post at construction road section to smooth traffic and ensure travel safety of passengers. (4) If culture relics, historic site or cultural heritage is found during construction period, immediately stop construction and seal up them on the spot and promptly contact local cultural relic management department for negotiation and treatment. (5) If strong vibration construction is needed near villages, monitor adobe residential houses near construction site to prevent accidents.

4.3 Environmental impact assessment and environmental protection measure during operation period

4.3.1 Impact on regional water resource optimizing allocation and source water protection measure 4.3.1.1 Impact on optimizing allocation of regional water sources

Analysis of the project water resource demonstration report has sufficiently showed that water sources in Ningbo City are not evenly distributed in term of time and space and must be adjusted by reservoir and water diversion project. Thirty percent of the water supplied by Ningbo's water plants is necessary living water for residents. Forty percent of it will be used by industrial production. The average water consumption rating of Ningbo's industry enterprises reaches the most advanced water utilization level in China with high unit production value and reasonable structures due to the good industry foundation of Ningbo City. The enlarged water supply will helps the production of highet economic and social benefits. According to the evaluation on the existing water environment in Ningbo City, the water quality of reservoir is better than that of the river; the quality of branch of Yongjiang River is better than mainstream; the quality of nver is better than internal waterway network. The project follows the water source configuration principle that used better source water for high grade demands. In addition, there are following problems in the water supply for urban and country town area of Ningbo Cito: I ) The water supply capacity of central city cannot meet the demand of present and future development The water suppl\ demand of central city is already 861,000 m3/d in 2003. The designed total supply capacitv is only 820.000 m3/d for water plants, which cannot meet the present demand. The capacity of existing 143 water plant is far from the demand of this area with the further development of the econmomy and resident's living level in the central city ( 2) The water quality of the water plants in urban area is unsatisfied Meiling Water Plant (designed output of 100,000 m3/d) use Yao River as water source. But the water quality of Yao River is classified as I1I-IV, which is not qualified for living and drinking water resource. Partial the raw water (250,00 m3/d) of Jiangdong Water Plant is supplied from the Nantang River water resource from Jinxin Waterway Network. In dry seasons, the water quality provided by the water plant will be influenced due the degradation of raw water quality with the increased concentration of pollutant in the waterways.

a. The water quality of the water plants built in 1960- 1970 is difficult to meet the water quality criteria of existing national "Hygiene Code for Living and Drinking Water". The water plant can only increase the dosage of coagulant and chlorine to meet existing quality criteria. This method increases the concentration of aluminum and chlorine in the water that influence safe drinking. b. The existing coagulating- precipitating - filtering - disinfecting process and facilities encounter many difficulties in meeting the requirement on water quality and water planted stipulated in the "Hygiene Code for Drinking Water and Living Water" issued by Ministry of Public Health in 2001 and in the "Standard Guidelines for Modern Water Plant of Zhejiang Province (Draft) ".

(3) The water supply quality of most of the township water plants cannot meet the existing national standard for living and drinking water with bad water source, small capacity, simple facilities and equipment. a. The quality of the surface water sources used by these water plant doesn't meet the national standard Besides the water plants use reservoir or underground water as water source. There are about 30 township water plants use the water in Jinxin, Jindong, Zhenhai and Beilun waterway networks. The water quality of these waterways at observation stations all fails to meet the criteria for Class II as the centralized water sources for living and drinking. b. Township water plants features small capacity, simple and low-graded equipment and facilities 3 Known from the statistics data, the total output of 41 township water plant is 488,000 m /d and only 3 3 11,900 m3/d in average. The smallest output is only 1500 m /d and largest output of 40,000 m /d. With the small scale and aimed at provide tap water, these water plants didn't pay enough attention on water quality. The purification equipment or facilities mostly are out-of-date and simple that cannot guarantee the water quality and safety. c. Lacking of professional management and technical staff with unqualified inspection method The township water plants are under the administration of township government. The professional management and technical staff are impossible for these small plants. The low management level of them also influence the water supply safety and improvement of water quality. Most plants don't have the instrumentation and technician for complete standard water quality inspection tests. Generally, only the turbiditv and residential chlorine will be inspected. It is not enough for overall understand of water quality. d. Serious leakage in pipe network

144 The leakage ratio in the distribution network in towns cannot be calculated with problems on the management and metering. There is no plan and design for these network that are mainly use concrete pipe. The lacking of professional design and construction leads to serious leakage with unqualified pipelines. The situation is changed in recent years. The nodular cast iron pipes have been used in the network with more attention paid on this issue. (4 ) The growth rate of the water distribution network in central city lag behind the growth rate of the urban construction and water demands With the increase of the supply volume and enlarging of water supply scope, the problems on the pressure and safety of the urban network are increased. ( 5 )The long-existed self-service water source of industrial enterprises make the unreasonable utilization of water resource During the construction of some enterprises, they had to build their self-service water supply facilities due to their demands cannot be met with the insufficient capacity of the Ningbo City. There are several dozens enterprise use self-service water resource with total capacity of 460,000 m3/d. Most of these self-service facilities use reservoir as water resource. It is not favorable for the comprehensive utilization of the water resources in Ningbo. With the implementation of. the Zhougongzhai, Jiaokou Reservoir diversion and urban water distribution loop network project, the optimization of the regional water resources will be accomplished to effectively resolve the existing problems on the water supply for the urban and rural residents and industries. 4.3.1.2 Jiaokou Reservoir source water protection measure

This project will use Zhougongzhai Reservoir and Jiaokou Reservoir as water source to jointly assume the task of supplying water to Ningbo City. Therefore it is necessary to strengthen water quality monitoring and pollution source investigation and promptly grasp the water quality condition of the reservoirs and catchment area, and well carry out water source protection work according to the "Administrative provisions for pollution prevention and control of Ningbo Drinking water source". At the same time, to protect water resources of Ningbo City, Ningbo Water Environmental Treatment and Control Leading Group Office has compiled the "Study of Ningbo Water Environmental Treatment and Control Countermeasure" which proposes the definite protection measures for drinking water head site in Ningbo City, and presently Ningbo Water Environmental Treatment and Control Leading Group Office is trying to make fund available and implementing various specific measures. The Municipal Government has decided that since January 2004, it will draw a certain percentage from existing water rate specially use it for environmental treatment and protection of water head site. Since the beginning of this year, the city has invested 12,000,000Yuan fund to implement protection project for the water head site of the four major drinking water source reservoirs including Jiaokou Reservoir and the fund is mainly used to collect and dispose the refuses and feces in upstream rain accumulation area and around downstream water catchment and as subsidy for water conservation forest in upstream rain accumulation area, which has gained significant result. Additionally, in order to strengthen environmental protection of water head site, standardize the use of special fund for water source protection and practically realize special fund for special use, the government also has formulated the "Management suggestions on the special fund for special use for the protection of Ningbo water resource protection'".

The specific measures involved with the protection of water head site Jiaokou Reservoir of this project are as follows, and the same method is also adopted for Zhougongzhai Reservoir

145 I) Water control according to law

Present water pollution prevention and control in Ningbo City is mainly to formulate the method for the pollution of Yaojiang River water resources and it does not involve drinking water protection, thus bringing difficulty to the protection work of water resources. According to national water environmental prevention and control law and experience of domestic brother cities, Ningbo City plans to formulate water pollution prevention and control law for water head site as soon as possible. It will define some water area and land area in domestic and drinking water head site as grade I protection zone and define some range as grade II protection zones outside the grade I protection zone. Protection zones at various levels shall have definite geographical boundary. The law specifies that it is prohibited from discharging wastewater into grade I protection zone for domestic and drinking water surface water source and conducting tourism, swimming and other activities that may pollute water body; it is prohibited from building and expanding the projects unrelated to water supply facilities and water resource protection; the set pollution discharge ports shall be demolished or treated within specified time under the instruction of the people's governments above county level according to authority specified by the State Council.

2) Policy management

Establishment of reservoir headstream and reservoir area protection agency: present reservoir management bureau in our city is basically based on engineering management including flood prevention, power generation and irrigation etc. As pollution in the upper reaches of reservoir area is not easy to control, pollution situation is complicated. The cleanness maintaining responsibility assumed by the reservoir management bureau can not cover the towns (townships) in the upper reaches, thus daily management agency is established and special personnel are equipped to control and supervise the pollution in reservoir area and the upper reaches in the principle of "who pollutes pays". The reservoir management bureau can assume the responsibility of cleanness maintenance in reservoir area and the responsibility of supervision for cleanness maintenance in the upper reaches, sign cleanness maintenance responsibility agreement with the town (township) governments in the upper reaches to better supervise local towns (townships) to fulfill the responsibility of cleanness maintenance, and cooperate with other cleanness maintenance projects and measures to carry out control in management.

3) Adoption of engineering and technical measures

(I) Comprehensive planning for water resource has listed the protection of drinking water head site as an important planning item. As water quality is directly related to the health of.the people and mass, the protection of water head site is drawing more and more attention from governments at various levels at present. It is in urgent need to protect the key water head sites in Ningbo City through strict planning and special treatment to meet the water demand for people's living and production. (2) Carry oui construction of water quality monitoring station and grasp the water quality change situation of water head site. Water quality monitoring is the basic work for water resource department to grasp the water quality condition of water head site and river network area. At present, water resource department of Ningbo City has not developed this work. In order to link up with the provincial water quality monitoring network, with reference to the planning of water quality monitoring network in advanced cities, .Ningbo City water quality monitoring planning has been compiled and has passed examination recently. It is required to implement this planning as soon as possible to more and more comprehensively grasp water quality data and change situation. 146 4) Planned projects

(I) Refuse treatment project Centralized refuse treatment of Jiaokou Reservoir: refuse is the biggest pollution source in the upper reaches of reservoir. There are many villagers in the upper reaches of Jiaokou Reservoir and refuse output is relatively many. At present the water quality of this reservoir has dropped to some extent. Therefore from 2003 to 2007, Zhangshui Town in Yinzhou District and Luting Township in Yuyao City will adopt the practice of towns and villages in the upper reaches of Hengshan Reservoir (see table 4-5) to carry out centralized treatment for refuses as follows: [I] Project investment: supporting projects include demolition of outdoor cesspool and building of public toilet (including I septic tank). If cost of a public toilet is 60,00OYuan and each administrative village has one such toilet, Zhangshui Town needs an investment of 1,800,00OYuan and Luting Township needs 2,340,00OYuan to basically resolve the water quality pollution caused by feces; wastewater pipe system will be built in the long term (after 2007) and the investment needs to be further estimated. In addition, refuse treatment project needs an investment of 2,340,00OYuan (can be implemented by steps; it is suggested that 70% be completed from 2004 to 2005 and all completed from 2006 to 2007). [2] Operation investment If monthly income of one sanitary worker is 600Yuan, wage expenditure will be 1,000,00OYuan/y; after 2007, due to construction of wastewater treatment system, it is necessary to increase management personnel and equipment maintenance personnel, and preliminary estimation of operation cost will increase to 1,200,00OYuan/y. It is suggested that local government contribute capitals and some capitals be taken from water charge in combination with reconstruction of villages in the upper reaches.

(2) Wastewater treatment project With reference to the wastewater treatment practice of Baixi Reservoir and "as treatment is made for domestic non-point source pollution, the main engineenng measures are as follows: [II Anaerobe or aerobe filter cell: anaerobe treatment can adopt anaerobe filter cell with easy management and low operation cost. Aerobe treatment can adopt aerobe contact method with high treatment degree, but its operation cost is high, thus it can be determined according to the distance from reservoir, population, and ecological condition and management level of various villages [2] Public toilet: water flush toilet is used. Those with high treatment capability of septic tank can reach discharge standard. It is advisable to connect the outlet water of septic tank to water treatment svstem and treat the

47 wastewater before discharge. 13] Biomass pool: settling matters in -toilet outlet water settle in biomass pool and undergo anaerobic digestion treatment under natural condition. Additionally, domestic organic refuses can be treated.

(3) Breeding of hydrophyte and hydrobiont

(The fish breeding method for large- and medium-scaled reservoir such as Jiaokou Reservoir and Hengshan

Reservoir uses the common breeding method. The bred fish species in Jiaokou Reservoir are mainiv Brocaded and carp and white carp in the ratio of 7:3 and released density is 25kg/mu. It is contracted by fishery team

supervised by reservoir management bureau. As breeding ratio of the two fish species has some impact on water

148 quality, it will increase the pollution of water quality in case of disproportion and will facilitate the improvement of water quality in case of proper proportion. That is why this reservoir experiences occurrence of blue algae each May and June. In order to effectively inhibit the breakout of blue algae in the reservoir, according to breeding experience of related reservoirs in our country, we can use the means of "fish protecting water" for protecting drinking water source to purify reservoir water quality. Silver carp and bighead carp that prey plankton can be put into reservoir to lick up blue algae so as to protect water quality- According to over three years of follow-up research by Chinese Academy of Science, silver carp and bighead carp can absorb and digest 50kg plankton such as blue algae in order to increase one kilo body weight. The occurrence of blue algae in reservoir can be effectively controlled to make water quality of drinking water source be gradually improved.)

(4) Control of soil erosion

Within the rain collection range of Jiaokou Reservoir, medium and slight soil erosion is great. Through closing the land for reforestation, complementary planting trees in extremely sparse forest land and self ecological rehabilitation of plants themselves, the medium and slight soil erosion can be basically controlled; however due to high mountains and steep slope in the drainage basin, once serious soil erosion occurs due to manmade destruction, it will be very difficult to restore. Therefore first it is necessary to carry out large-area forest reservation and return the cultivated hillside for farming to forestry and grass. For gentle land necessary for farmers, it can be treated by using various measures such as changing the slope to terrace. See table 4-6 for planned soil erosion project of Jiaokou Reservoir.

(5) Resettlement of affected residents

See table 4-7 for population in the built drinking water head site of Ningbo City in the range of rain collection.

From the present situation, the population in the rain collection area in the upper reaches of the five major reservoirs in Ningbo City has exceeded 100,000 people. The effective means to protect water head site is to strictly control the pollution due to concentration of population. The planned resettlement of the affected residents is the most complete method. As situation in all aspects is complicated, it is necessary to move the residents by batches and by stages. Moving can be carried out using the method of first moving the key water head site and then others through reference. Compensation for resettlement is carried out with reference to flowage damage when the water source project is prepared. The residents moving down from mountains can be compensated by means of material objects or capitals. For the residents moving down from mountains by batches, the moving can be carried out as per 3-5% decrease of total population in recent five years. After 2007, the rate will drops to 2.3%. When population drops to an appropriate level, the annual moving quantity of residents can be reduced: 4.3.2 Impact on hydrological regime in the lower reaches and water catchments

According to the supply and demand balance calculation result completed by the project water resource demonstration report, the selected series is from 1963 to 2002, 40 years in total. With days as calculated time period, after calculation and analysis of long series day-after-day water quantity balance, the reservoirs shall meet the average water consumption of 9,630,000m3 for irrigation of Yinxi Plain in the lower reaches, average water consumption of 60,000m3 for, animal husbandry, water consumption of 560,000m3 for other purposes and 3,650,000m3 incoming flow for mountainous region in the lower reaches of the dam. Under this condition, urban daily water supply is 473,000t/d, and, considering daily water supply variation factor 1.14, maximum daily water capacity is 540,000t/d, mean annual water supply is 173,000,000m3 and water supply factor of assurance is 95%. Considering 6% linear loss from reservoir to water works, the maximum daily water supply capacity of water works is 500,00Ot/d. The controlled drainage basin area of Jiaokou Reservoir is 259km2, mean annual runoff is 281,000,000m3, and water diversion quantity of this project is 183,000,000m3. Mean annual runoff is greater than water diversion quantity. According to distribution of monthly runoff in the year under mean annual condition, runoff and water diversion in respective months are shown in table 4-8 and figure 4-1.

Figure 4-1 Comparison between runoff and water diversion of Jiaokou Reservoir It can be seen from table 4-8 and figure 4-1, water diversion quantity is 65% of natural runoff, which means that water diversion reduces 65% of Jiaokou Reservoir sectional flow. Therefore this project will lead to great change of hydrological regime of the rivers in the lower reaches, or has great impact on the hydrological regime of the nvers in the lower reaches. Under mean annual condition, the monthly runoff in November, December and January is greater than the water diversion quantity of the corresponding month. For this reason, it is necessary to meet the demand of water diversion quantity through joint operation of Zhougongzhai Reservoir and Jiaokou Reservoir. The water balance achievement of joint operation of Zhougongzhai Reservoir and Jiaokou Reservoir is shown in table 4-9 and the discarded water quantity of Jiaokou Reservoir is equal to the&total drainage flow minus mak-eup water quantity for irrigation in Yinxi Plain in the lower reaches and the lO,OOOin3/d incoimnm flow in the mountainous region in the lower reaches of the dam. For the 30-year series measured drainage flov. from 1974 to *2003after completion of Jiaokou Reservotr, see table 4-10. To help analyze the drainage flow of Jiaokou Reservoir under different factors of assurance after completion ot this project, on the basis of 40-year balance calculation data from 1963 to 2002 and assurrune drainage tlo%k downstream of Jiaokou Reservoir dam conforms to PIll curve, the monthly average drainage flow before and after water diversion under different factors of assurance P=50%, P=75% and P=90% is given. See table 4-11 and

155 It can be seen by comparing the above table 4-l1 and figure 4-2, 4-3 and 4-4 that after completion of this water diversion project, water quality will decrease under different factors of assurance, maximum drainage flow lags behind compared with reservoir incoming flow, and hydrological regime of the lower reaches will change relatively greatly. In addition, it indicates that the joint operation of Zhougozhai and Jiaokou Reservoirs embodies the reservoir adjustment function. According to the project water resource demonstration report, balance calculation of water diversion project includes the total IO,OOOm3/d water consumption at respective water catchments from Jiaokou Reservoir to Tashan Weir and the irrigation makeup water quantity in Yinxi Plain. These two parts of water will be drained from reservoir through river courses to water catchments and Yinxi river network in the lower reaches. When this project is completed, it will have very small impact on the river courses in the lower reaches and river network water catchments. In addition, in the lOOkm2 catchment area from Jiaokou Reservoir to Tashan Weir there are a series of small streams flowing to Zhangxi River. There is a stream flowing into the river at lkm downstream of the dam. See figure 4-5 (dark blue lines are tributaries in the figure) for water system distribution of this section. Furthermore, when the drainage flow in respective months in table 4-9 (discarded water quantity of Jiaokou Reservoir) is converted to monthly average flow, the minimum monthly average flow in low flow years (P=90%) can reach 0.88m3/s. Thus it further indicates that although hydrological regime in the lower reaches of Jiaokou Reservoir can change to some extent due to water catchment from Jiaokou Reservoir to Tashan Weir, this river section will not incur discontinuous flow of river course in the lower reaches due to water diversion. 4.3.3 Minimum ecological and environmental water consumption analysis of the rivers in the lower reaches 4.3.3.1 Minimum environmental water consumption analysis of the rivers in the lower reaches

The frequency analysis for average monthly drainage flow of Jiaokou Reservoir from 1974 to 2003 shows that in the low flow year with p=90% (typical year is 1980), the minimum average monthly flow occurs in December and flow-is 0.39n3/s. According to Ningbo ground water environmental function area division, the water environmental function area of Jiaokou to Tanshan Weir river section belongs to Class 11 water source protection area and the calculation design water flow condition of its environmental capacity (pollution receiving capacity) shall be the low flow year with p=90% (typical year was 1980) and the minimum average monthly flow at this time is 0.39m3/s. Therefore this flow is the minimum environmental water consumption of the river section in the lower reaches of Jiaokou Reservoir. However the evaluation result of the present water quality of this river section shows that some water quality monitoring sections between Jiaokoti Reservoir and Tashan Weir are Class IlI and can not meet the Class 11 water quality requirement of present function area. This indicates that the present pollution discharge quantity of this river section is greater than the pollution receiving capacity of river section.

It should be noted that Figure 4-6 is the annual distribution comparison diagram of annual runoff value for three years theoretically calculated at approximately p=90% among the 30 years of measured drainage flow from Jliaokou Reservoir. The year 1980 is most approximate to theoretical calculated value. Furthermore, according to description of annual distribution characteristic of water quality in Yongjiang River value in this report, selection of 1980 as typical year is basicallv reasonable after comparison of the three years.

Figure 4-6 Annual distribution comparison diagram of monthly runoff of three-years at p=90% annual runoff 4.3.3.2 Minimum ecological water consumption analysis of the rivers in the lower reaches

The investigation and monitoring result of aquatic ecology shows that there are no valuable and rare animals and plants and no migration fishes and fish spawning ground in the river section between Yinjiang Jiaokou reservoir and Tashan Weir, thus it has not formed the fish resources of some economic value. The present research for related ecological water demand indicates that the minimum ecological water demand of rivers in a region 157 generally shall be greater than or equal to the minimum natural flow in the low flow period of the dry year. In addition, the analysis of measured flow from Jiaokou Reservoir from 1794 to 2003 also shows that the measured minimum monthly average drain flow in 30 years was 0.012m3/s (for details refer to table 4-3 "Statistical table of total water flow from Jiaokou Reservoir in the months of past years" and this indicates that the situation of almost discontinuous flow has happened to this river in the previous years. Viewing from present situation of aquatic ecology, the ecological water demand of the river section from Jiaokou Reservoir to Tashan Weir is relatively small. After completion of this project, Zhougongzhai and Jiaokou Reservoirs will operate jointly, which has the function of retaining water in high water period and supplementing water in low water period as well as adjusting drainage flow in low water period. Table 4-11 gives monthly drainage flow and average drainage flow before and after water diversion under different factors of assurance. It can be seen from the table that in the low flow year after joint operation of Zhougongzhai and Jiaokou Reservoirs (factor of assurance is p=90%), the minimum 3 at drainage flow is still 0.88m /s and in combination with the practice of our country's ecological protection 3 present, the lowest water monthly average flow at .p=90% after water diversion, i.e. 0:88m /s, is selected as the minimum ecological water demand. 4.3.3.3 Analysis of minimum ecological environmental water demand in the downstream river course

The minimum ecological environmental water demand takes the greater of the minimum environmental and water demand and the minimum ecological water demand. After the above analysis, 0.88m3/s is determined this flow value is also the minimum drainage flow of reservoir. 3 As this project has considered the water consumption, i.e. 10,00Om /d, of water catchment between Jiaokou course as Reservoir and Tashan Weir in the balance calculation, this water consumption will be drained from river 3 flow from water consumption, corresponding to 0.11 m /s. In practice, the minimum monthly average drainage 0.88 m3/s Jiaokou Reservoir is the sum of the above determined minimum ecological environmental water demand 3 3 and the water compensation 0.11 m /s at water catchment, i.e. 0.99 m /s, corresponding to 11.1% of annual 3 of average flow 8.9 m /s. Therefore the drainage flow after completion of this project can meet the requirement ecological environmental water demand in the river course in the lower reaches. Reservoir It is considered that the thee parts of water supply, including water quantity supplied by Jiaokou 3 and to existing water consumers downstream of the dam, economic environmental water demand (0.88 m /s) River farmland irrigation and animal husbandry supplementary water in Yinxi Plain, will be drained to Zhangxi Reservoir after power generation by existing power station in Jiaokou Reservoir. The installed capacity of Jiaokou 3 /s. In Power Station is 3 i 1600kW units, totally 4800kW, and reduced flow rate of power generation is 17.64m of water order to enable the drainage flow from Jiaokou Reservoir to Zhangxi River to meet the above three parts water supplv while urban water supply is ensured, power generation by a half unit may be carried out. The tail flow after power generation can make river course downstream of Jiaokou Reservoir maintain sufficient ecological environmental water demand and Jiaokou Reservoir can discharge water to supplement it if necessary. 4.3.4 AnalVsis of impact on water environment of river course in the lower reaches 4.3.4.1 Impact analysis

From the above analysis of hydrological regime. the hydrological regime of river sections in the lower reaches of Jiaokou Reservoir will change greatly after completion of this project, but the change of hydrological model reyime will surely cause the change of water environment of river courses. This article uses mathematical 15 approach to predict the impact on the water environment of river sections in the lower reaches of Jiaokou Reservoir. According to the requirement of the Engineering Instruction for National Water Resource Protection Planning completed in 2002 and in order to compare with the function area division achievement of Zhangxi River given in the Zhangxi River Valley Water Resource Protection Planning compiled in 2002, this article selects chemical oxygen consumption (CODCr) as prediction evaluation factor. The river section for water quality prediction evaluation is the section from downstream of Jiaokou Reservoir dam to Tashan Weir with total length of 9.5km. See figure 4-7 for prediction calculation range. The blue lines in the figure are simulated river sections, which are narrow flashy streams with river width of less than 100m. To better predict the change of water quality of the river section from Jiaokou Reservoir to Tashan Weir after completion of this project, this project has collected detailed present hydrology, water environment and other research findings of the river section from Jiaokou Reservoir to Tashan Weir and has conducted survey for pollution source of this river section. See table 3-34 for the investigation findings of pollution source of river sections. The domestic pollution source of river section is estimated as follows: there are seven villages on the two banks of Zhangshui Town and domestic wastewater discharge is 2,400t;d, assuming that 70% wastewater is discharged into river course, COD discharge of domestic pollution source is approximately 306kg/d after calculation.

Figure 4-7 Simulation calculation river section

The incoming water of simulated river section is the drainage quantity of Jiaokou Reserv-oir and additionally there are five small streams flowing the river along the route. The drainage flow of Jiaokou Reservoir uses the 3 previously determined minimum ecological environmental water consumption 0.88m /S. The five streams in the section is in accordance with the data provided by this project water source demonstration report and the river inflow of each stream is given accordingz to its catchment area. 0.32m3/s in total. Besides tributary afflux in the section, there is r-iver inflow pollution discharge port. For simplification, the river inflow pollution discharge ports are divided into industrial and domestic types. Locations of pollution disch-arge ports are in Zhangzxi Town river section and are 2.4km and 3.0km from Jiaokou Reseroir respectiveI\

159 The height of water of simulated prediction river section is about 30m and slope of river bed is relatively great, being 3%0. Due to limitation of measured large cross-section data, the calculation generalizes the whole river cross-section to be narrow trapezoidal cross-section.

What needs to be explained is that the outlet water quality of Jiaokou Reservoir fully meets Class 11 water quality standard according to the water quality monitoring result of Jiaokou Reservoir. To increase the reliability of calculation result, this analog calculation takes a relatively poor monitoring value from the monitoring results in recent years, i.e. CODcr concentration 12mg/L (meeting Class 11 water quality standard), as the drainage water quality of Jiaokou Reservoir. Due to lack of the inflow water quality monitoring result of the five tributaries, only estimation can be made. For simulated river section, there is no new pollution source except Zhangshui Town, and CODcr concentration of the five inflow tributaries (the most conservative estimation) shall meet Class 1I water quality standard. This analog calculation takes the most conservative estimated value, i.e. CODcr concentration takes l3mg/L. CODcr concentration of pollution discharge ports in Zhangshui Town are 127mg/L and 150mg/L respectively.

By analyzing various conditions including landform and hydrology of Zhangxi River in the simulated river section and based on the knowledge and understanding of water flow quality characteristics, the elements affecting water flow quality are rationally generalized and tributaries and water catchments and discharge ports are generalized as source sink terms. The impact of various physical and chemical and biological action processes on water quality is collectively generalized to be comprehensive attenuation and is represented by comprehensive attenuation coefficient K. Through a series of rational generalizations, the one-dimensional steady flow mathematical model that describes water quality of river section is established: aQ aA ax at Q2 A ah gQIQI |A + gAah + = 0 2 ax aX C AR a2c ac D--v--KC+S=O (1) ax 2 ax h(x)l =h, Q(x) =q

On the basis of establishment of water flow quality mathematical model, numerical value derivation is conducted for water flow quality model. 500m space step length is selected to divide river section into 33 water level and flow nodes and water calculation nodes are 33. According to the project feasibility study report and with reference to Ningbo City water quality research findings, river section flow roughness coefficient is taken from 0.030- 0.035, dispersion coefficient is in 5- 20 and CODCr attenuation coefficient in 0.06- 0.08. Simulated prediction calculation designed two conditions and see table 4-12 for details.

Table 4-12 two predicted design conditions of simulated river section water quality Design condition CODcr total quantity reduced Remarks Condition I Present discharge not reduced Condition 2 Total quantity reduced for 25%4 Corresponding to up-to-standard discharge

Under the two design conditions and at different distances from Jiaokou Reservoir, the prediction calculation results and evaluation results of the simulated river section water quality is shown in table 4-13. Water quality evaluation According to GB3838-2002 surface water quality Class II standard, single factor standard index method is used to evaluate the prediction results. Figure 4-7 shows the change of simulated river section water quality at different distances from Jiaokou Reservoir under the two designed conditions. It can be seen from table 4-13 and figure 4-7: The water quality of river section downstream of the dam of Jiaokou Reservoir is mainly controlled by pollution discharge of Zhangshui Town and the situation that water quality exceeds Class I functional area exists under current pollution discharge. If total quantity is -reduced for 25%, the water quality of the water section from Jiaokou Reservoir to Tashan Weir can meet the requirement of Class II water. After completion of this project, through joint regulation of reservoirs and with a certain drainage flow ensured, it is possible to basically maintain present river water quality. However, to change the situation that water quality exceeds Class II functional area, it is necessary to reduce present total pollution quantity. Reduction of 25% total pollution discharge can meet the requirement of Class II functional area water quality standard of river section downstream of the reservoir. Reduction of 25% total pollution discharge corresponds to collection and treatment of presently discharged wastewater and it is enough to reach the requirement of grade I discharge standard.

161 In addition, in accordance with the data of actual drainage flow from the Jiaokou Reservoir within 30 years after its completion, this article determines the minimum 3 environmental flow of the river section downstream of Jiaokou Reservoir to be 0.39 m /s and this flow value represents the actual flow of downstream river course in low flow period in low flow year under present condition. According to the above established simulation model of water quality and with 0.39 m3/s as the drainage flow from the reservoir before completion of this project, the water quality of river section between Jiaokou Reservoir and Tashan Weir is predicted and calculated under the condition that the present pollution discharge and total quantity are reduced for 25% (corresponding to up-to-standard discharge from pollution discharge outlet of river section). See table 4-14 and figure 4-8 for results. Compared with the predicted result of the water quality at 0.39 m3/s before completion of this project and of the water quality at 0.88 m3/s after completion of this project, it can be seen that after completion of this project, the water environment of downstream river course in low flow period will be improved to a certain extent owing to the function of water accumulation in high water period and water supplementation in low water period. Under the same condition of pollution discharge, the water quality of downstream river course after completion of this project will be one class better than that before the completion of this project.

164 4.3.4.2 Environmental protection measure

In order to ensure the water quality of downstream river course, it is necessary to ensure a certain drainage flow from Jiaokou Reservoir.

It is considered that the thee parts of water supply, including water quantity supplied by Jiaokou Reservoir to existing water consumers downstream of the dam, economic environmental water demand (0.88 m3/s) and farmland irrigation and animal husbandry supplementary water in Yinxi Plain, will be realized through power generation by a half unit in the existing Jiaokou Reservoir. The tail water flow after power generation can make river course downstream of Jiaokou Reservoir maintain sufficient ecological environmental water demand and Jiaokou Reservoir can discharge water to supplement it if necessary.

Meanwhile, it is necessary to control the total quantity of pollutant discharge strictly in accordance with the own environmental capacity of river course. According to Ningbo urban water discharge planning, in order to avoid and improve pollution of urban rivers, the following urban water treatment plants are already planned and constructed: five wastewater treatment plants will be built in Sanjiang area, which are divided into five wastewater treatment systems, i.e. Jiangdongnan area, Jiangdongbei area, Zhuangshi, Yinxi and Jiangnan. It is recommended that pollution discharge treatment in Zhangshui Town be incorporated in Yinxi Wastewater Treatment Plant and treatment of the wastewater can ensure the elimination of pollution discharge into this river section and the maintenance and improvement of water environmental function of the river section. 4.3.5 Impact on hydrobiont in downstream river section and on river shoal wet land

(1) Impact on hydrobiont in downstream river section

According to the result of present hydrobiont investigation and evaluation and in combination with the comprehensive analysis of operation and dispatch method of water diversion project, after completion of Jiaokou Reservoir Water Diversion Project, water exchange of Zhangxi River in its lower reaches will be reduced, which may cause reduction of benthic fauna and fish species laying viscid eggs. As the investigated river section is flashy stream with short source and rapid flow and resource of hydrobiont is scanty without rare and precious aquatic plants and animals or migratory fish and fish spawning site, the fish resource of some econon-mic value is not formed. And additionally, as most animals have short life cycle and early sexual maturity and can reproduce at I year age, they can be quickly restored under the conditions of environmental extremes and serious resource destruction. Therefore the impact of Jiaokou Reservoir. Water Diversion Project on the resources of hydrobiont species is very small.

(2) Impact on river shoal wet land

The river section (Zhangxi River) upstream of Tashan Weir in Yinjiang within the range of this evaluation is flashy stream with short source and rapid flow and sudden and sharp rise and fall of water quantit\ and flow changes significantly with seasons and water discharge from Jiaokou Reservoir. On the two banks of Zhangxi River are provided with riverbank mainly consisting of such bottom materials as gravel and coarse sand and hvdrobiont is very scanty and there is no sectional wetland resource. In some river shoal wetlands only weed is seen and there is no aquatic breeding, bird habitat and migratory bird migration area. It can be known from the above analysis that after completion of this project, drainage flow from the river will be 165 report of this reduced at different factor of assurance. However, according to the water resource demonstration consumption of totally project, the balance calculation of the water diversion project includes the water 3 the irrigation lO,OOOm /d at respective water catchments between Jiaokou Reservoir and Tashan Weir and via river water supplementation in Yinxi Plain, and these two parts of water will be drained from the reservoir OOkm2 catchment area course to the water catchments and downstream Yinxi river network. lI addition, in the River. The rninimum from Jiaokou Reservoir to Tashan Weir, a series of small streams flow into Zhangxi 9 key protected monthly average drainage flow in low flow year (p= 0%) can reach 0.88m3/s and there is no certain drainage flow wetland in the evaluated range, thus impact on river shoal wetland is not great provided a is ensured. 4.3.6 Analysis of water discharge on water environment and environmental protection measures increase to some After completion of this project, total water supply of Ningbo Water Supply Project will works will decrease extent. But the prelirninary statistics shows that water supply capacity of water this project 240,000m3/d due to production stop of at least 16 water works (see table 4-15 for details). Actually 3 as 75% supply will increase supply water quantity of 260,000m /d. If the wastewater produced is calculated situation, The main water increase, the wastewater increased will be 187,000m3/d. But from the present river network are tidal pollution receiving river Yongjiang River and its tributaries in Ningbo City water system is less than 25%. As a river reaches, the treatment capacity is far less enough and wastewater treatment rate rivers without treatment result, a large quantity of industrial and domestic wastewater is directly discharged into in Ningbo City, and causes pollution of water body to be increasingly serious. For tidal river section reaches is controlled by the runoff amount in the upper reaches is great in high water period and water level of rivers is seriously polluted. upper reaches. Pollutants move to the lower reaches and river water in the lower reaches to water flow by tide In dry season, movement of pollutants is under the action of amplitude of setup applied affect water quality in and pollutants drift around in river network. Pollutants in the lower reaches may possibly the increased the upper reaches or other rivers. After this project is completed and put into production, system. wastewater discharge quantity will have impact on the rivers of the whole Ganchao water

Jiangdongbei area, Zhuangshi, Yinxi and Jiangnan. (2) Houhaitang Wastewater Treatment Plant is set in Zhenhai area and is divided into three wastewater treatment systems, i.e. wastewater in Chenguan is collectively treated by Houhaitang Wastewater Treatment Plant, wastewater of Petrochemical Plant is treated by its own internal wastewater treatment facilities, and wastewater in Xiepu area is treated by Ningbo City petrochemical area wastewater treatment system.

0 Five wastewater treatment plants are provided in Beilun area and are divided into four wastewater treatment system. West area is collectively treated by Xiaogang Wastewater Treatment Plant, central area is provided with Yandong Wastewater Treatment Plant and Yanxi Wastewater Treatment Plant, east area is provided with Baifeng Wastewater Treatment Plant and Daxie area is provided with Daxie Wastewater Treatment Plant for collective treatment. (J)Industrial wastewater treatment plant is provided in combination with industrial zone. By 2020, the scale of all planned wastewater treatment plants in the central city of Ningbo will reach 2,550,000m3/d. While according to planning, urban water supply capacity in 2020 will reach 3,000,000m3/d and total wastewater quantity will be 2,210,000m3/d, thus wastewater treatment rate will reach 100%. In addition, while this project is completed in 2008, Jiangdongnan Area Wastewater Treatment Plant and Zhenhai Houhaitang Wastewater Treatment Plant will all be completed (World Bank loan, scales are 160,000m3/d and 30,000 m3/d respectively). Obviously, the planned wastewater treatment plants will receive the additional water returning quantity of this project. As a result, the impact of water discharge quantity on Ningbo City water environment will be reduced and water environment will be treated and improved. In general, although the tide of main pollution receiving rivers makes pollutants easily diffuse in water, after completion of this project, 16 small water works with 240,000m3/d water catchment quantity will be shut down and the actual additional wastewater quantity of this project will be 187,000m3/d. Furthermore according to the overall urban development planning for Ningbo City, construction of a series of wastewater treatment plants is speeding up while this project is under construction, and Ningbo City's increased wastewater treatment capacity in 2008 will be able to receive the additional water return of this project. Therefore water return will have only small impact on water environment after completion of this project. 4.3.7 Impact of water purification plant sludge and wastewater discharge on water environment 4.3.7.1 Impact of water purification plant sludge on environment

As the sludge produced from water treatment process of Maojiangping Water Purification Plant contains much water, it will undergo anhydration treatment first. Sludge will be delivered to sludge balancing tank and 167 is dewatered by plate frame dewaterer, and the dewatered dry sludge is conveyed to sludge shed or is utilized as back fill. The dry sludge quantity of Maojiangping Water Purification Plant is 17.8t/d and sludge shed can store sludge for seven days with maximum storage being 124.6t. If the sludge is discarded in a random way, it will become potential pollution sources for surface water and ground water both in the near term and in the long term. However the sludge composition of water purification plant is different from that of wastewater treatment plant that basically contains no poisonous and harmful substances. It is stored in sludge shed and anti-seepage and anti-leakage measures are taken for sludge shed and irrational piling is avoided, thus it has small impact on the environment. The treated dry sludge is used as backfill or utilized for farmland after stabilization and non-harmful treatment. Due to stabilization and non-harmful treatment, dry sludge will have small impact on soil environment. Dry sludge shall be rationally piled and not allowed to cover vegetation, otherwise it will affect ecological environment. Sludge produced from this project will be first recovered as resource and comprehensively utilized and the remaining part will be transported to landfill as mulching soil. As long as secondary pollution is prevented during transport and utilization, its impact on environment is small.

2) Disposal and comprehensive utilization of water purification plant sludge

(According to related domestic and foreign data, sludge produced from the production of .tap water is is mainly used as resource and is mostly for landfill or building materials after anhydration and agricultural use also encouraged. But sludge from most water purification plants in our country is mainly discharged without dewatering, thus sludge has not been rationally utilized. This project will anhydrate sludge to greatly reduce output of sludge. As the main constituent of dry and sludge is organic -fertilizer and basically contains no poisonous and harmful substances, resource comprehensive utilization will the best way to resolve dry sludge. When resource and comprehensive utilization can not be realized, sludge can be used as backfill for depressed land. Dry sludge of this project is stored in sludge shed for seven days. Sludge composition is basically the sary,e as soil composition and can be used as road paving muck so as to sufficiently utilize resources or be used for agricultural purposes. In' addition, to realize rational utilization of sludge, water purification plant shall and contact local manufacturers or Muck Office of Ningbo Municipal Government and make an appointment registration in advance to arrange comprehensive sludge utilization approaches and avoid unordered sludge accumulation. In general, treatment of dry sludge shall first consider resource recovery and comprehensive utilization. If utilization condition is temporarily unavailable, sludge can be used as backfill to protect limited soil resources. If sludge can not be promptly utilized or comprehensively utilized, it can be used as mulching soil for refuse landfill and unordered accumulation is not allowed so as to realize rational storage of excessive sludge.)

In this proiect. sludge will be dewatered and dried to greatly reduce the production of sludge. As dry sludge basically contains no poisonous and hazardous substances, consideration of resource recovery and

168 comprehensive utilization will be first given to the disposal of dry sludge. The approaches of comprehensive utilization are as follows:

(I) For brick making by admixture and solidification. As verified by Ningbo Technical Supervision Bureau, sample bricks containing 15% sludge can meet national standard in terms of various indices. Therefore water purification plant shall contact local brick and tile factory as early as possible and sign related agreement to avoid secondary pollution during utilization.

(2) Dry sludge produced from this project will be stored in sludge shed for 7 days. Composition of sludge is almost the same as that of soil, thus it can be used as paving mucks so as to sufficiently utilize resources or be used as agricultural earthfill. At the same time, in order to reasonably utilize sludge, the water purification plant shall contact Ningbo Waste Soil Office and make appointment and registration in advance to arrange comprehensive utilization approach of sludge and avoid unordered accumulation of sludge.

(3) Used as mulching soil in refuse landfill to realize rational storage of excessive sludge. The requirement of refuse landfill for the soil quality of mulching soil: (1) attaining the requirement of sanitary landfill, and (2) giving consideration to the final utilization of the land in refuse landfill and restoring the utilization value of land. Quality of dewatered mud cake from water purification plant generally can meet the requirement of mulching soil for refuse landfill. Nevertheless the soil source in existing refuse landfill is deficient, thus it is obvious that sanitary landfill of dewatered mud cake has a broad prospect of application.

In summary, utilization of dewatered sludge as resource is positive and the water purification plant shall contact local brick and tile factories etc as soon as possible for the approach of comprehensive utilization. Even the excessive part is transported to refuse landfill as mulching soil, agreement of acceptance shall be signed and safe and reliable transport scheme shall be available to avoid secondary pollution.

4.3.7.2 Impact of wastewater from water ptirification plant on environment

It can be known from project analysis that wastewater from water purification plant is mainly backflush water in filter cell and sludge discharging water in sedimentation tank and additionally domestic wastewater, of which production wastewater is 13,900 m3/d including 7,900 m3/d backflush wastewater, 6,000 m3/d process wastewvater produced from sludge discharging water after concentration and dewatering; 30m3/d domestic wastewater. Wastewater can be treated to be up to standard and eventually flow into Yinxi river network through Xiaoxi Port near the water purification plant. Yinxi river network water function belongs to Class Ill function area.

The main pollutant of process wastewater produced from this project is SS and contains no other toxic and hazardous substances. See figure 2-1 for treatment process. According to analogy investigation made to Ningbo Beilun Water Works (with Hengshan Reservoir as water source and treatment process of water purification plant is basically the same), and the quality of discharge water after treatment of sludge discharging water in sedimentation tank is 70mg/I SS and 73mg/l COD, but backflush water in this water works is reutilized and continued to be used as source water for the water works. This indicates that the qualitv of this part of water is better than that of discharge water from sludge discharging water in sedimentation tank. For domestic wastewater, the design proposes to use the in-plant small type buried wastewater treatment equlpment

16'9 to treat domestic wastewater. Considering this treatment equipment can not bring water quality to be up to standard in winter, this environmental assessment suggests the adoption of powered wastewater treatment facilities and after water quality is treated to reach the grade I standard in GB8978-1996 "Integrated Wastewater Discharge Standard", part of tail water is utilized for greening of mountain land and the excessive part is introduced via pipe to nearby river course (Xiaoxi Port) outside the works. Xiaoxi Port is flashy stream with short source and rapid flow and sudden and sharp rise and fall of water quantity and flow changes significantly with seasons. In usual time, water flow is relatively small and is almost dry or completely dry in dry season and in case of flood, water flow increases sharply and its main function is to drain flood and irrigate and there is no environmentally sensitive objects such as drinking water source protection zone. Therefore wastewater produced from this project will not have great impact on water quality of Xiaoxi Port after treated to be up to standard and will not make water environment of water network exasperate and can supplement water demand for irrigation. However, to reduce discharge of wastewater and save water resource, this environmental assessment proposes to reutilize backflush water.

4.3.8 Analysis of noise impact of water purification plant on surrounding environment

Noise produced from operation of water purification plant is mainly the noise produced from operation of various water pumps that are mostly arranged under the ground of structure or in the rooms of buildings. After sound insulation and vibration reduction treatment, the noise attenuates greatly when it transmits to external environment. At the moment, noise is below 6OdB(A) and can be reduced for 2OdB(A) after 10 distance attenuation, thus it basicaUy has no impact on the external acoustic environment of the water purification plant (and sensitive villages near the water purification plant is 200m away from the plant). According to plan layout of water purification plant, in-plant landscaping area is great and various trees, climbing plants and herbal plants are planted and building ornament is arranged to improve landscaping quality. On the interior of enclosing wall of plant area, shrubs with strong absorption are arranged to form an isolated area. These measures are conducive to the reduction of noise impact on surrounding environment.

4.3.9 Assessment of environmental risk due to chlorine and ammonia leakage 4.3.9.lEnvironmental risk assessment for chlorine leakage

(1) Physical and chemical characteristic of chlorine

Physical characteristics:According to the information in "New Safety Manual of Hazardous Substance", chlorine is green-yellow gas with strong penetrating odor under normal conditions, toxic, 2.5 times of the specific weight of air. The chlorine may be compressed into amber liquefied chlorine with specific weight of 1.5 and supplied in cylinder with pressure of 0.6 - 0.8Mpa. One kilogram liquefied chlorine may change into 0.3 1m3 chlorine gas after gasification.

Chemical characteristics:Chlorine has strong active chemical characteristics. h can be replaced from bromine or iodine. It can has displacement reaction and addition reaction with organic and inorganic substance

170 The dried chlorine has lower activity. Wet chlorine may combined with most elements. It becomes hydrochloric acid after solved into water.

Chlorine can not combust in air. However, most of normal combustible substance may combusted in chlorine just like in oxygen. The normal combustible gas or vapor may also form explosive mixture with chlorine. Chlorine can react strongly with many chemicals, such as acetylene, terebinth, aether, ammonia, fuel gas, hydrocarbon, hydrogen, metal powder etc with explosion or generate explosive substance. It may have corrosive reaction with metal and non-metal substance. (2) Hazardous characteristics

Chlorine has extreme irritability on the mucous membrane of eyes and respiratory systems. It will generate nascent oxygen and hydrochloric acid after contact with moisture air. Both substance will all cause serious inflammation on body tissues.

The harmful effects of chlorine are similar with ammonia and nitric oxide. It will mainly effect on the mucous membrane cells of respiratory tract. The entering of chlorine from the respiratory tract will firstly cause damage on it mucous membrane. It will solute into the water in the mucous membrane to become hydrochlorous acid that will strongly oxidize the tissues. The generated hydrochloric acid will stipulate the mucous membrane by inflame swelling. In this way, the swelling of respiratory tract with large amount of mucus secreted will cause dyspnea. The mild intoxication will cause acute cough with bad sensation in respiratory tact even with stuffy feeling or pains in the chest. The serious symptom will cause pulmonary edema that will cause death with failure of respiratory tract.

According to the stipulations in national "Maximum Permitted Concentration of Harmful Substance in the Atmosphere of Residential Area", the maximum permitted concentration of chlorine in atmosphere should not over O.lmg/m3. The national "Design Hygiene Standard for Industrial Enterprises" stipulates that the maximum allowed concentration of chlorine in workshop is I lmg/m3. (3) Emergence and fire fighting measures

Fire fighting measures:Whenever chlorine leakage happens, fireman with respirator and all covered protective suit should shut off the valve of cylinder immediate to cut off the supply of chlorine to reduce the fire. Water should be sprayed to keep the cooling of vessels in fire site and provide protection on the fireman who shut off the valve.

First aid measuresThe person inhale chlorine should be retreated from the polluted area for rest and keeping them warmung. The serious affected person should be send to hospital for emergency treatment. The irritated eyes should be flushed with clean water and seek doctors' help if it is acute. The contacted skin should be flushed with clean water firstly then rinse with soap completely. The burning should be treated in hospital. (4)Requirements on storage and transportation

The toxic chlorine should be stored at special warehouse with shady, dry and well-ventilated conditions. It should be kept awav from the heat and fire sources and avoid direct sunlight. The liquidized chlorine is a kind of substance with severe toxicity, which should be kept ventilated and isolated with combustible substance. organic substance or other substance subject to oxidization. Special attention should be made on isolation with acetylene. terehinth. aether, ammonia, fuel gas, hydrocarbon, hydrogen. metal powder etc. The safety cap and

171 should anti-shocking rubber ring on the cylinder must be assembled before handling. The damages of the vessel In be prevented without rolling and shock. The tightness of valve should be checked with soap water regularly. addition, the chlorine leakage in warehouse should be checked. (5)Leakage treatment off. The respiratory and all-covered protective suit should be wore firstly. All fire source should be put The leaking valve should be shut off immediately. The leaking cylinder should be removed from the warehouse be send to to open area and put into solution of siacked lime to prevent poisoning. The discharged air should water scrubber or draught cupboard connected with the scrubber with discharging fans. (6)Demonstration on the measures used in the project make To avoid any possible leakage of chlorine, the selection of chlorine-adding equipment should be advanced carefully firstly. The automatic all vacuum chlorine-adding equipment with reliable safety and the performance is selected in the design. It can reduce the chlorine leakage to a minimum level to increase safety of chlorine-adding procedure. also The detection and alarm system for the chlorine leakage is installed at the chlorine-adding room. It is treatment equipped with neutralization equipment for leaking chlorine. The circulated alkaline liquid in the equipment will be used for the neutralization of leaking chlorine with the tail gas discharge into atmosphere not bring after checked for qualifications with treatment. In this way, the chlorine leakage in water plant will damages to environment.

According to the physical and chemical characteristics in "New Safety Manual of Hazardous Substance" measures and hazard analysis, the precautions in storage and transportation are proposed with the anti-leakage is taken in Maojiapingwater purification plant, it is considered that the environmental protection measures measures effective with the highly recognized by the water purification plant on the hazards of chlorine. The also meet the requirements in the "Safety Manual".

4.3.9.2 Evaluation of environmental risk due to ammonia leakage

1) Physical and chemical property of ammonia

Molecular formula: NH3, relative density of gaseous ammonia (air= 1): 0.59

Molecular weight: 17.04, relative density of liquid ammonia (water= 1): 0.7067 (25 C)

Self-ignition point: 651.1 PC

Melting point ( C): -77.7, explosion limit: 16% - 25%

Boiling point ( C): -33.4, 1% aqueous solution pH: 11.7

Vapor pressure: 882kPa (200)

2) Route of contact and hazard

I Toxicity and poisoning mechanism

Human per os of liquid ammonia TDLo: 0.15mlI/kg

Human inhalation of liquid anmmonia LCLo: 5000ppm/5m

172 After entering into human body, ammonia can block tricarboxylic acid cycle and reduce the action of cytochrome oxidase to cause increase of brain ammonia and produce neurotoxic action. High density ammonia can cause histolysis and necrosis.

() Route of contact and symptom

(1) Inhalation: inhalation is the main route of contact. Ammonia pungency is a reliable hazardous concentration alarm signal, but due to smell fatigue, it is difficult to be conscious of low concentration ammonia after prolonged contact.

A. Ammonia poisoning due to slight inhalation is manifested by rhinitis, pharyngitis, trachitis and bronchitis. Patients may have pharynx causalgia, cough, expectoration, emptysis, chest distress and ache behind breast bone etc.

B. Acute ammonia poisoning due to inhalation is mostly caused by fortuitous events such as pipe breakage and valve burst. Acute ammonia poisoning is manifested by mucous membrane irritation and ambustion of respiratory tract and its symptom depends on ammonia concentration, inhalation duration and personal receptivity.

C. Serious inhalation poisoning may cause laryngeal edema, glottis stenosis and mucous membrane desquamation of respiratory tract and trachea blockage and suffocation. Inhalation of high concentration ammonia can directly affect permeability of pulmonary capillary to cause pulmonary edema.

(2) Skin and eye contact

Low concentration ammonia can quickly generate stimulary function to eye and humid skin. Contact of humid skin and eye by high concentration ammonia gas can cause serious chemical burn.

Skin contact can cause serious ache and burn and result in coffee like stain. Corroded location appears colloidal and soft and can cause deep tissue damage.

High concentration vapor is strongly stimulant to eye, causes ache and burn, results in significant inflammation and may possibly cause hydrops, epithelial tissue damage, nubecula and iritis. Gentle case generally can be released and serious case may last for a long time and incur such complications as continuous hydrops, scar, permanent nubecula, eye bulge, cataract, eyelid and eyeball accretion and blindness. Multiple and continuous contact of,ammonia can cause conjunctivitis.

3) Cause of risk

The main cause for risk of accidents in water purification plant is equipment failure. After consultation of information in respective aspects, almost no report of ammonia (chlorine) leakage in water purification plant is found, indicating that equipment in water purification plant has reached very reliable degree. Another-cause of possible accident is operation against rules and the phenomenon of operation against rules can be avoided owing to automatic dosing equipment in water works.

4) First aid treatment

il Removal of contamination

173 If the patient only has contacted ammonia gas and has not had stimulation symptom of skin and eye contact, it is not necessary to clean up contarmination. Assuming that liquid ammonia is contacted and clothes is contaminated, the patient shall take off and put clothes into double layered plastic bags.

In case of eye contact or eye irritating sensation, it is necessary to wash for more than 20 minutes with plenty of clean water or normal saline. In case of blepharospasm at the time of washing, it is necessary to put into 1-2 drops of 0.4% oxybuprocaine and continue to wash it sufficiently. Should patients wear contact lenses that is easy to be removed and will not damage eye, it is necessary to take off contact lenses.

Skin and hair in contact with ammonia shall be washed for 15 minutes with plenty of clean water. Care shall be taken to protect eyes when skin and hair are washed.

Q) Resuscitation of patient

Immediately move patient out of contaminated area and carry out three step method of resuscitation for patient (air passage, respiration and circulation):

Air passage: ensure air passage is not blocked by tongue or foreign matter.

Respiration: check whether patient respires or not. If not, pocket mask etc shall be used.

Circulation: check pulse and if there is no pulse, carry out cardio-pulmonary resuscitation.

( Preliminary treatment

There is no specific toxicide for ammonia poisoning and support treatment shall be adopted.

If contact concentration is =SOOppm and symptom such as eye irritation and pulmonary edema occurs, the following measure is recommended: first spray dexamethasone 5 times (using metered-dose inhaler) and then spray two times every five minutes until the patient is delivered to emergency department of hospital.

If contact concentration is =1500ppm, it is necessary to establish vein passage and intravenously inject 1.Og methylprednisolone or equivalent dose of steroid.

Ammonia inhaler shall be provided with humidified air or oxygen. In case of anoxia, humidified oxygen shall be provided.

If the patient has respiratory distress, endotracheal intubation shall be considered. When the condition of patient makes it impossible to conduct endotracheal intubation, thyrochondrotomy shall be performed if possible. The patient having bronchospasm can be treated with spray of bronchodilator such as terbutaline-

Skin in contact with ammonia may cause chemical burn, which can be treated as thermal burn: fluid replacement shall be properly made, anodyne shall be given, body temperature shall be maintained and disinfection pad or clean bed sheet shall be used to cover trauma. In case skin is in contact with high pressure liquid ammonia, care shall be taken to prevent frostbite.

5) Treatment of leakage

l Slight leakage

Entry into limited space where ammonia gas may possibly a&cumulate shall be prohibited and ventilation shall be increased. Leak stoppage can be made only when safetv is ensured. Leaked

174 container shall be moved to safety area and valve can be opened to release pressure only when safety is ensured. Such inert absorbing material as soil and vermiculite can be used to collect and absorb leaked materials and the collected leaked materials can be put in labeled enclosed container for disposal.

-2 Heavy leakage

Excavate all unprotected personnel in the area and transfer them to upper drift area. Leakage treatment personnel shall wear full length protective clothing and breathing apparatus and eliminate nearby fire source.

Report to local government and "119" as well as local environmental protection department and public security and traffic police. Content of report shall include organization incurring accident; accident happening time and location, name of chemicals and leakage quantity, hazard level, personnel injury and death as well as name and telephone of reporter.

Contact with or crossing over leaked liquid ammonia shall be prohibited. Leaked material shall be prevented from entry into culvert and sluiceway and ventilation shall be increased. Smoking and open fire shall be prohibited in the area. With safety ensured, it is necessary to stop or turn over leaked container to avoid leak-out of liquid ammonia. It is necessary to spray mist water to suppress vapor or change flow direction of fume cloud, but it is necessary to prohibit using water to directly impact leaked liquid ammonia or leakage' source. Prevent leaked materials fromn entry into water body, sewer, basement or enclosed space. Prohibit entry into limited space of possible accumulation. After washing, it is necessary to clean and disinfect all protective clothes and equipment before storage and reuse.

6) Disposal of combustion explosion

0 Characteristic of combustion explosion

At ambient temperature, ammonia is a kind of combustible gas but is difficult to ignite. Explosion limnit is 16% - 25% and the easiest ignition concentration is 17%. The concentration at maximum explosion pressure is 22.5%.

-2 Fire treatment measure

Dunng storage, transportation and use, the following measures shall be taken in case of fire:

(4) Alarm: promptly report to "119" fire control and the government. Content of report shall include organization incurring accident; accident happening time and location, name of chemicals and leakage quantity, hazard level, personnel injury and death as well as name and telephone of reporter.

(2) Isolate, excavate and transfer personnel at risk to safety area. Establish 500m caution area and carry out traffic control on the main highway to accident site. Nobody except fire fighters and emergency treatment personnel is allowed to enter caution area and unrelated personnel shall be promptly excavated.

03 Before entry into fire scene, fire fighters shall wear chemical-proof suit and positive pressure respirator. Ammonia gas can easily penetrate clothes and is easy to dissolve in water. Fire fighters shall take care to protect the body parts where perspiration is great, such as reproductive organ. axilla and anus.

(4) Dry powder or CO2 extinguisher shall be used in case of small fire and water curtain. spray waler or conventional foam can be used.

175 (5) When fire occurs to storage tank, try to extinguish fire from remote distance and remote control water gun or water cannon shall be used.

(6) Never directly spray water to leakage port or safety valves to prevent freezing.

(7) When safety valve gives sound or changes color, excavate as soon as possible and never stay on the two sides of storage tank.

7) Demonstration of measures taken for the Proiect

The following measures are taken for the project: Q Chlorine (ammonia) dQsing room is externally provided with gas mask, rescuing materials and tool box. Gas mask shall be tightly sealed and stored to avoid failure. Lighting and ventilating equipment shall be provided with outdoor switch. (®) Chlorine (ammnonia) dosing room shall be separated from other work rooms and be provided with the following measures: (1) Doors directly to outside and opens outwards; (2) Observation window shall be provided; ©)Chlorine (ammonia) dosing room and its warehouse shall be provided with ventilation equipment that exchanges air 8-12 times per hour. Q For feed water pipe to chlorine (ammonia) dosing room, uninterrupted water supply shall be ensured and stability of water pressure in the pipe shall be maintained as much as possible. (5) Pipe and fittings for dosing chemical agent for disinfection shall be corrosion resistant material and ammnonia dosing pipe and equipment shall be copper material. $) Chlorine and ammonia dosing equipment and its pipes shall have spares depending on actual situation. The above measures conform to the requirement of environmental protection design for water purification plant in the use of liquid ammonia and these measures are practicable.

4.3.9.3 Demonstration of liquid chlorine disinfection technology

this According to information provided by design institute, the clean water conveyance distance of project is long. To ensure the effect of disinfection, chlorine and amrnonia-disinfection method is recommended. As for the reason that chlorine dioxide is not used for disinfection, the following points are considered:

(i) Related research shows that the disinfectant of chloramines generated from chlorine and ammonia has conveyance a better antiseptic power than chlorine dioxide, which is favorable to the long distance clean water of this project.

(2) Disinfection of chorine dioxide generates inorganic disinfection by-product chloranion (CIO' ) and (CIO3 ) that are of some toxicity. Chlorine dioxide itself is hazardous particularly in high concentration.

(3) Chlorine dioxide is very unstable and tends to explode and its storage and transportation are both difficult. Theretore site production is often carried out. but production and use of chlorine.dioxide still have some technical problems remained to be solved. Its production process and operation are complicated and requires much more for the operation management of water works.

(4) At present the price of materials (sodium hypochlorite or sodium chlorite) for production of chlorine dioxide is relatively high.

(5) Current national standards have specified the criterion for evaluation of chlorine dioxide disinfection. To meet the requirement of residual chlorine test, even though chlorine dioxide is used for disinfection, some chlorine gas still needs to be implemented to enable outlet water and pipe network water to attain national standard.

(6) Presently the water works that use chlonne dioxide for disinfection are basically small sized ones and no report shows its application in large scaled water works which lack the experience of operation and management.

(7) Raw material for this project is reservoir water and water quality reaches grade l-II, thus it is of no need to worry about liquid chlorine disinfection by-product.

To sum up, liquid chlorine is the most widely used, cheap and effective method of disinfection and as the distance of clean water conveyance distance for this project is long, liquid chlorine is used for disinfection. 4.3.IOPipeline's affection on water quality and

The water distribution pipeline in this project is mainly tunnel. The laid steel pipe will be used when cross the flat sections. The water quality during the transmission will not be affected because there is no pollutants will be solved from the rock of the tunnel. 4.3.11 Analysis of impact on Tashan Weir

(1) Analysis of impact on water conservancy function of Tashan Weir

Tashan Weir is situated at the outlet of Zhangxi River beside Tashan Mountain in the west head of Yinzhou Town, Yinzhou District and is collectively called, together with Zhengguao Channel, Ling Channel and Dujiang Weirs, Four Major Ancient Chinese Hydro Projects. It was published as a national key cultural relic protection unit by State Council in January 1988 and was chosen as one of ten scenic spots in Ningbo City in 1994.

After Tashan Weir was built, it has played a huge role. Water in the upper reaches is blocked by the weir and flows into Nantang River to irrigate more than 200,000mu farrnland in the seven townships in west Yinzhou. In flood season, flood in the upper reaches overflows the weir surface into Fenghuai River, and rushes through Yangjiang River down to the sea at Zhenhaikou so as to alleviate flood situation in west Yinzhou. Site selection of Tashan Weir is rational and its design is scientific. It can both fight against drought and regulate water quantity into Nantang River.

More than a thousand years has been past. Weir body is still basically intact and it can still exert the function of "blocking salty water. storing fresh water. draining flood and diverting water" from the present situation.

For this project, as taking water from reservoir may cause decrease of river drainage flow, water flow erosion to upstream weir body is reduced accordingly. But Tashan Weir is still basically intact after a thousand

i77 reaches years, which indicates its structure is rational and solid and reduction of incoming water from upper adverse should not basically cause impact on Tashan Weir. Therefore the project construction will not cause impact on Tashan Weir.

It can still exert the function of "blocking salty water, storing fresh water, draining flood and diverting water".

Tashan Weir is a hydraulic structure of special cultural relic value in Zhangxi River. As a hydraulic function of structure, it is because Tashan Weir is in a position and is of a certain structure that it has the of this "blocking salty water, storing fresh water, draining flood and diverting water". During construction Weir project, any structure of Tashan Weir will not be changed. The time and quantity of flow through Tashan of may be reduced to a certain extent and function of flood drainage may be relatively weakened only because water from the reduction of incoming water from upstream of the weir in flood season. More incoming blocking upstream of the weir will blocked and enter into Yinxi Region for irrigation, but the function of seawater salty tide will not be reduced. In general, construction of this project will not greatly affect water conservancy function of Tashan Weir.

(2) Analysis of impact on landscape effect of Tashan Weir

of From the above analysis, drainage flow from the reservoir will be reduced at different factors this assurance after completion of this project. But according to the water resource demonstration report of of project, the balance calculation of water diversion project has included the total water consumption 3 water lO,00Om /d of water catchments between Jiaokou Reservoir and Tashan Weir and the supplementary water quantity for irrigation in Yinxi Plain. These two parts of water will be drained from the reservoir through 2 area course to water catchments and downstream Yinxi river network. In addition, in the 100km catchment and the from Jiaokou Reservoir to Tashan Weir, there is a series of streams flowing into Zhangxi River 3 after minimum monthly average drainage flow in low water year (p=90%) can reach 0.88m /s. Therefore from completion of this project, although the function of flood drainage is weakened, more incoming water function of upstream of the weir will be blocked and enter into Yinxi Region for irrigation. Furthermore, the blocking salty seawater tide will not be changed. and its impact on landscape is not great.

4.4 Conclusion of. environmental impact assessment and environmental protection measure for Zhougongzhai Reservoir

The Environmental Impact Report of Ninbo City Zhougongzhai Reservoir, the serially linked reservoirs Provincial in the upper reaches of water catchment source for this project, has been completed by Zhejiang project Design Institute of Environmental Protection Science in November 2001 and the background if this environmental assessment and the main evaluation conclusion for its environmental impact are as follows. 4.4.1 Nature of Zhougongzhai Reservoir and situation of surrounding environmental background

(1) Nature of Zhougongzhai Reservoir

of Zhougongzhai Reservoir is in Daojiao Stream in the upper reaches of. Yinjiang River, a tributarv Zhangshui Fenghua River. 7.5km upstream of Jiaokou Reservoir. The dam site is in Zhougongzhai Village, 178 Town, Yin County (present Yinzhou District) and the power generation plant is on the right bank of the river 350m upstream of Duao Village at 2km in the lower reaches of the dam site.

Zhougongzhai Reservoir is a comprehensive utilization reservoir combining water supply, flood control and power generation. In terms of water supply, under the precondition that water utilization in Yinxi Plain is not affected, it operates jointly with Jiaokou Reservoir to supply high quality water source to Ninbo City urban area to the greatest extent. In terms of flood control, it operates jointly with Jiaokou Reservoir to make flood control standard in the lower reaches of Jiaokou Reservoir reach once every 20 years. In terms of power generation, it supplies peak load power to power grid.

2) Surrounding environment of Zhougongzhai Reservoir

(1) River water system: Yinjiang River is in the west of Yin County (present Yinzhou District), Ningbo City and is a tributary of Fenghua River. It originates from the south foot of Longyan Hill in Siming Mountain at the junction of the three cities and counties of Fenghua, Yuyao and Yin County and its total length is 59km. Its main stream Dajiao Stream is 42.5km in total length and drainage basin area is 169km2, and it joins with the tributary Xiajiao Stream (river length 24km and drainage area 90km2) and then enters Jiaokou Reservoir. The lower reach of Jiaokou Reservoir is Yinjiang River (also called Zhangxi River). This drainage basin belongs to flashy stream with short source and rapid stream and scanty hydrobiont resources and there is no rare and valuable wild hydrobiont.

(2) Terrain and landform: Dajiao Stream is a part of low mountain hill region in east Zhejiang and belongs to Siming Mountain, a branch of Tiantai Mountains The surface relief inclines from southwest to northeast and watershed elevation is mostly 300-900m with peak being 976m. In the drainage basin, chain of mountains stretch long and unbroken and ravines run in length and breadth. River fall head is great and river source is short and steam is rapid. The river valley in dam site is in the "V" shape and two banks are relatively symmetrical. Width of low river valley is 30-60m, width near dam top is 360-390m, average slope of left bank is 35-37 , average width of right bank is 36-40 , and ridges in dam site are 60m higher than the top of dam.

(3) Engineering geology: the location where the reservoir is situated in the second umbo of neocathaysian macrotectonics southeast of secondary cathaysian structural belt on the west edge of Ningbo Basin. Affected by Siming Mount Xiepu NE direction structural belt and Huangtan-Dayin NNE direction secondary structural belt, the survey area is mainly based on NE direction fracture with NNE direction as secondary and there is certain dense zonal zonality. The nodal region of this project is between secondary structural belts and structural influence is relatively weak.

The basic earthquake intensity of the reservoir is VI degrees.

Massif is abundant around the reservoir and is impervious stratum. Underground watershed-is much higher than designed water level of the reservoir and residential points and farmland are sparse. No valuable mineral resources have even been found in the reservoir and there will be no water leakage or submersion after the reservoir is completed.

4.4.2.1 Favorable influence and 1 I ) Construction of this project will alleviate the situation of supply water shortage in Ningbo City rapid increase flood prevention and control ability in Yinxi Plain. It is of great importance to promoting further city, economic development of this city and achieving the goal of building Ningbo into the important industrial heavv petrochemical base, foreign trade port in East China and the economic center in Zhejiang.

180 ( 2) This reservoir has significant flood storage and peak clipping function for the flood occurring once every twenty years and is very conducive to the safe operation of Jiaokou Reservoir and flood control safety of Yinxi Plain.

( 3 ) The reservoir changes the natural discharge process of the dam site. Drain flow decreases in high water period and increases in low water period, thus it homogenizes the incoming runoff of Jiaokou Reservoir, increases the regulating and storing capacity and can better meet the requirement of water utilization.

(4) When two reservoirs jointly supplies water, flow to the lower reaches of Jiaokou Reservoir will decrease and cause deterioration of watercourse water under adverse hydrological conditions. The reservoirs shall drain some water to supplement ,and maintain the function of watercourse water body.

(5) When Zhougongzhai Reservoir is completed, water quality of the reservoir can reach Class 1-2 surface water standard and nutritional level of the reservoir is medium.

(6) The project will have some effect on the climate after its completion. It will increase humidity in reservoir region and annual average air temperature and reduce annual air temperature difference and rainfall, but the degree of impact is small.

4.4.2.2 Adverse effect

( I ) When the reservoir is completed, temperature of drain flow is low and it has some impact on some farmland between Zhougongzhai and Jiaoku reservoirs. The impact can be avoided by taking agricultural measures.

(2) During relocation of people from reservoir area, the living and production conditions of the settlers will be improved. They will have more job opportunities and their living standard will be increased to a large extent. It will have small impact on the environment in the relocation area. Number of relocated people is small and their means of production is basically not affected, because construction of houses will occupy some forest land and impact on the people's living standard is very limited. After technical training and policy support, their living standard can be maintained as present or be improved, but it is greatly different compared with externally migrated people. Soil erosion may be caused to some extent during relocation.

(3) Soil erosion will be caused to a great extent during road construction. Waste residues will be comprehensively utilized, but still a part of it will be discarded, causing some adverse effect. on the environment.

4 ) Waste water, waste gas, water residue and noise during project construction will have adverse effect on the environment and the health of construction personnel and nearby residents. Adverse effect can be reduced bv taking measures of dust suppression. wastewater treatment, sound tnsulation and other non-engineering measures.

5 ) The project is very unlikely to cause earthquake and effect of peripheral earthquake on the project area is grade 4. Reservoir bank is stable and has no immersion effect.

k 6 ) Excavation, landfill. road construction and resettlement of affected residents will damage vegetation and cause adverse effect on ecology, but it will not affect the living environment of valuable and rare animals and plants.

181 4.4.2.3 Conclusion of comprehensive assessment

In summary, construction of this project is very significant to the economic development of Ningbo City and its economic benefit is obvious. Reservoir submersion, project construction and operation will cause adverse effect on water, air and acoustic environment and ecological environment. However as long as we strictly execute related national environmental protection laws and regulations and environmental standards and take necessary environmental protection measures, we can minimize its adverse effect on the environment and achieve the environmental protection goal in the report. Therefore, construction of this project is feasible from the environmental protection point of view. 4.4.3 Environmental protection countermeasure

3) Water quality protection measure 184 During construction of resettling area, it is necessary to well conduct wastewater treatment and centralized discharge according to new rural construction standard so as to reduce impact on reservoir water quality.

4.4.3.3 Ecological protection countermeasure and soil and water conservation measure

Reservoir construction will cause damage of soil and water conservation facilities due to reservoir area submersion, construction excavation and compression of waste earth and residues to weaken original soil and water conservation capability. When heavy rain washes out earth, soil and water erosion will be aggravated to cause adverse effect on ecological environment. If there is no necessary protection measure for the site, flushed by rainwater and flood in rainstorm season, earth may be washed to river course to cause aggradation, increase water level and affect flood control safety. Therefore it is necessary to restore vegetation during and after construction as much as possible.

Construction organization and management along the line of reservoir area shall be strengthened, rare and valuable plants in reservoir area shall be properly treated once found and transplanted by forestry and environmental protection departments; wild animals shall be protected and returned to the nature and catching and killing is forbidden.

The permanently occupied land for construction shall be leveled and reconstructed and restored to forest land or farmland except those covered with buildings.

To reduce or avoid the impact of permanent land occupation for the project and temporary land occupation in construction period on land utilization, it is necessary to take the following measures:

(1) Try to reduce temporary land occupation during construction period.

(2) Restore vegetation and farmland as soon as various temporary land occupation projects are completed and realize using while leveling and landscaping while second plowing;

(3) When waste land or other idle lands are used, they shall be promptly cleared and treated to restore vegetation and prevent soil erosion.

(4) Reduce damage to farmland and vegetation around the working area. Construction camps shall not be set in farrmland and forest land. Construction personnel shall be educated not to destroy forest or damage surface soil and vegetation outside camp site.

(5) Strictly control forest felling quantity and prohibit the felling of forest out of the range of land requisition. Reduce the felling of or do not fell the forest in the range of temporarily used land.

(6) Totally II over-one-hundred-year ancient trees will be flooded in the reseryoir area. It is suggested that these trees be relocated to the higher elevation or moved out for protection.

During project construction, excavation and filling of main works, road reconstruction (expansion), material vard exploitation and resettlement will cause soil and water erosion, thus protection and landscaping must be carried out. The main measures are:

(1) Except those covered with buildings. the occupied land in dam site shall be leveled and reconstructed and restored to forest land. Land leveling: 87,707m2; earth covering: 3.5OOm3; tree planting: 10,088

185 Liquidambar formosana Hance, 10,088 Chinese red pines, 700 bamboos; broadcast sowing grass seeds: 64,861m2, spray sowing grass seeds: 852m2, planting Boston ivy: 330 pieces.

(2) The project temporarily occupies 106mu land, of which 56.66mu will be restored to paddy field and the rest will plant tea tree, Liquidambar formosana Hance and Chinese red pine. Tea tree: 3,330 pieces, Liquidambar formosana Hance and Chinese red pine: 7,794 pieces respectively (93.53mu), broadcast sowing khuskhus: 54,12 I m2.

(3) Plant area needs to lay 3D vegetation net, plant grass 3,400m2 and plant lawn 734m2. For in-plant road, 100 camphor trees, 1,521 red woods, 45 bamboos are planted. Land leveling: 14,092rm-2, earth excavation for cut slope: 2,100m3, earth excavation for drainage ditch: 103.3m3, and grouted slabstone: 76.8m3.

(4) Excavation waste dump needs to build grouted rubble retaining wall on the side of river. When discarding of residues is completed, the top platform of excavation waste dump is leveled and covered with earth, and then completely restored to forest land.

(5) Waste residues for reconstructed road needs to be transported to the special waste dump and inside exposed surface along the road shall be greened with ivy and kudzu and grass seeds be broadcast sowed.

(6) Reservoir bank protection forest shall be planted on the bank around the reservoir with total area of 29,145m2, 1,554 Liquidambar formosana Hance, fir and Chinese red pine trees are planted respectively and grass seeds are broadcast sowed for 25,482m2.

(8) Reconstruction of other special facilities and construction of management area shall undergo soil and water erosion treatment according to the requirement of soil and water conservation scheme.

4.4.3.4 Water quality protection for river course in the lower reaches of Jiaokou Reservoir

(1) After completion of Zhougongzhai Reservoir, with urban water supply ensured, Jiaokou Reservoir shall properly consider the environmental water utilization requirement in the lower reaches. When water quality in the lower reaches exceeds standard, it shall discharge water to meet the requirement of Class 11 water quality function area. It is suggested that valve relief hole be set in the dam to release water at any moment when river course in the lower reaches needs environmental water consumption.

(2) Total quantity control shall be realized for discharge of pollutants on the two banks of river course to avoid water quality deterioration caused by economic development.

4.4.3.5 Guarantee measure for water utilization in the lower reaches of reservoir

(1) Duao Village water supply compensation measure

As domestic water for approximately 2,000 people in Duao Village downstream of power station is diverted from original Zhougongzhai Reservoir, 300m3/d is needed on the basis of 0.15m3id water consumption per capita. Tap water source can not be ensured during project construction period, thus it is considered that overfalls are built from the tributary upstream of Duao and Nianao Vilages as water source compensation and is connected through with original water supply system. The catchment area of this tributary

186 is 1.797km2, mean annual flow is 0.064m3/s, daily water quantity is 5,530m3, and daily average water quality in the driest month (P=90%) is 588m3, sufficient for the water demand by villagers.

(2) Guarantee measure for water utilization in the lower reaches when power station shuts down abnormally

When power station shuts down abnormally, reservoir emptying hole (controlled with valve) can discharge water to ensure the domestic and production water for residents in the lower reaches of Zhougongzhai Reservoir. There is 1,000mu farmland from downstream of Zhougongzhai Reservoir to Jiaokou Reservoir, and water for 3,000 people is taken from Dajiao Stream. If Im3/s water is discharged in irrigation period and 0.05m3/s discharged in non-irrigation period plus catchment in the section, it can meet the water utilization requirement on the two banks of river course.

4.4.3.6 Early-warning measure for water discharge downstream of the dam

Water flow of river course in the lower reaches of Zhougongzhai Reservoir is mainly drainage flow from Zhougongzhai Reservoir. As generation time of power station is mainly peak power (08:00-22:00) time and drainage of water quantity is not uniform, in order to prevent sudden change of river course water quantity from affecting the lives and belongings of residents along the river, discharge caution plate is established on the river bank downstream of the reservoir, showing discharge time and precaution for operation on riverside. One caution plate is set for each kilometer and 15 plates are needed.

4.4.3.7 Pollution prevention and control measure for power plant area

Main pollution source during operation period of power station shops is domestic wastewater and domestic refuse produced by operation management personnel and is in small quantity. Domestic wastewater is treated with powerless buried type treatment facilities and domestic refuses are provided with refuse box and collectively cleared and transported by municipal environmental sanitation department.

4.5 Environmental impact analysis conclusion in water resource demonstration report and protection measure

4.5.1 Environmental impact analysis

1) Impact on Zhangxi Stream runoff downstream of Jiaokou Reservoir dam

When Zhougongzhai Reservoir is completed, it will operate jointly with Jiaokou Reservoir to realize reservoir pondage action, thus the spatiotemporal distribution of runoff in the lower reacdes of the reservoir will be changed. Flood retention and peak reduction in flood season reduce the peak discharge of river course. In non-flood season, due to power installation in reservoir, tail water flow from power generation can make river section downstream of Jiaokou Reservoir maintain sufficient ecological environmental water qualitv arid, if necessarv, Jiaokou Reservoir will discharge water for supplementation.

Intake tunnel of Maojiaping Water Works is designed based on 500,000m3/d water supply scale and flow Q=6.13 m3/s (6/C' water loss already considered). After water diversion project is built, runoff in the section between Jliaokou Reservoir and Yinjiang Town will decrease shghtly due to adoption of water intake from

187 tunnel in reservoir area. After water conservancy computation, irrigation water after completion of the project will basically not be affected.

2i Impact on other water users

(1) Present water supply situation of Jiaokou Reservoir

Jiaokou Reservoir is a large scaled (2) hydro project integrated with water supply, flood prevention and power generation. It is situated near Miyan Village in Zhangshui Town, Yinzhou District, Ningbo City, with total storage capacity of 119,800,000m3, and dam catchment area of 259krn2.Zhougongzhai Reservoir under construction in the upper stream of design drainage basin is situated upstream of Jiaokou Reservoir near Zhougongzhai Village in Zhangshui Town, Yinzhou District, Ningbo City, with total storage capacity of I12,000,000m3, and dam catchment area of 132km2.

Jiaokou Reservoir assumes the task of village and town water supply and farrmland irrigation water supply in Yinxi region, Yinzhou District. In addition, water catchment of Beidu Water Works in Ningbo City is Zhangxi Stream river course in the lower reaches of Jiaokou Reservoir.

Within the irrigation range of Jiaokou Reservoir, Yinxi Plain has 103.5 km2 paddy field (155,700mu) and 6.5 km2 (9,750mu) dry land in 2001. With urban and traffic construction and development, farmland will decrease year after year. According to the prediction of planning and development, paddy field will be 83.3 km2 (124,950mu) and dry land will be 5.4 km2 (8,100mu) in 2020. Area of dry land is relatively small and water demand is in low proportion, thus reduction coefficient is used for simplified calculation and it is considered that 2mu dry land amounts to Imu paddy field. The mean annual irrigation water demand in 2020 will be 47,320,000m3. Water use quota for pig, cattle and sheep will be 30, 60 and 151/1-d in 2020 and water consumption for animal husbandry will 1,210,000m3/y.

Calculation and analysis of long series day-after-day water quantity balance shows that before completion of Zhougongzhai Reservoir, under the precondition that Jiaokou Reservoir meets the water supply for irrigation and animal husbandry in Yinxi Plain in the lower reaches, the urban average daily water supply quantity will be 200,000t/d, considering daily water supply variation factor 1.14, maximum daily water capacity is 230,000t/d, mean annual water supply is 73,000,000m3 and water supply factor of assurance is 95%.

(2) Impact of water resource development and utilization by the project on other water users

[I] Impact on domestic water Domestic water in Yinxi Region in the lower reaches of Jiaokou Reservoir is mainly taken from the river course in the lower reaches of Jiaokou Reservoir. After this project is built, it can supply domestic and industrial water to various villages and towns in the lower reaches. which increases high quality supply water and improve water supply factor of assurance. 12] Impact on irrigation and environmental water utilization downstream of the dam Analysis and calculation shows that before completion of Zhougongzhai Reservoir, under the precondition that the farmnland irrigation in Yinxi Plain is met, the maximum daily water supply capacity is 230,000t/d, mean annual water quality quantity is 73,000.000rm3 and water supply factor of assurance is 95%. 188 After completion of Zhougongzhai Reservoir, it will operate jointly with Jiaokou Reservoir and can meet the requirement of daily water supply capacity of 500,OOOt/d. Water quantity balance analysis shows that this project after completion will not cause impact on agricultural water utilization in Yinxi. As presently water catchment of Beidu Water Works is in the river course in the lower reaches of Jiaokou Reservoir, after Maojiaping Water Works directly takes water from Jiaokou Reservoir, it will affect water catchment by this waier works. According to ring network project, water supply range of Beidu Water Works will be replaced by Maojiaping Water Works, thus it will not cause impact on original water users of Beidu Water Works. Water catchment sources of Beidu Water Works is planned to move to Tingxi Reservoir. When this project is built, water diversion scale will be 500,OOOt/d and flow will be Q=6.13m3/s (6% water loss already considered), accounting for 68.9% of mean annual flow of Jiaokou Reservoir. As diversion of runoff leads to decrease of runoff in the lower reaches, environmental capacity of river course also decreases, causing some adverse effect on water environment and water supply function of the river courses in the lower reaches. When Zhougongzhai Reservoir is completed, domestic water consumption in the lower reaches will be lO,OOOm3/d with consideration of environmental water demand in the lower reaches and water consumption of Zhangshui Town in the section, and additionally irrigation supply water passes Zhangxi River, therefore it is conducive to the improvement of water environment and water supply function of river courses in the lower reaches through reservation regulation.

(3) Impact on hydrobiont

When the project is completed, it will not cause great impact on hydrobiont etc and will not cause great adverse effect on fishery production. This project after completion will have very small impact on hydrological regime, water quality and water temperature in the lower reaches. Even under the most adverse condition, water temperature decrease is less than l1C and can return to normal at 1-2km downstream. It will not cause great change to present ecological environment in natural reserve and will not have significant impact on water resource protection. 4.5.2 Water resource protection measure

4.5.3 Conclusion and suggestion

1) Conclusion

When Zhougongzhai Reservoir is completed, under the precondition that farmland irrigation and environmental water utilization in Yinxi is ensured (irrigation factor of assurance reaches 85%), through joint operation of Zhougongzhai and Jiaokou Reservoirs, and with the water utilization of Yinxi Plain and Zhangshui Town satisfied, the reservoir can supply 173,000,OOOm3/t to Maojiangping Water Works, a public water works in central city of Ningbo. The design water supply capacity is 500,000t/d and water supply factor of assurance is 95%. Farmnand occupation due to excavation and filling during construction will generate some impact on agricultural production, but after rational resettlement and compensation measures are taken, the adverse effect of construction on surrounding environment can be reduced or eliminated. Project construction will disturb original landform and damage vegetation, causing local soil and water erosion, which will not have significant adverse effect on ecological diversity. According to surface water environmental protection function area division, Minyan in YinJin (outlet of Jiaokou Reservoir) is Class I quality headstream protection zone and other river sections are Class II quality multifunction areas and Class II quality centralized or domestic and drinking water source grade I and II protection zone. Present water quality: Zhougongzhai Reservoir inflow water quality is Class II, and Jiaokou Reservoir inflow water quality is Class and its outlet water quality is Class I. Reservoir area is determined to be drinking water source protection zone. Through implementation of water resource protection measure, its water quahty will be worse than present water quality and can meet the requirement of catchment water quality of this project. During operation period, water quality downstream of the reservoir will drop slightly and it is needed to control pollution source, reduce pollution discharge and consider some drained ecological environmental flow of the reservoir. In general, in the long run, the favorable influence of this project is major and adverse effect is munor and local. Its adverse effect can be reduced and eliminated by taking appropriate measures and there exist no major adverse factors that restrict project construction. Obviously, from environmental point of view, the construction of this project is feasible. In summary, the Zhougongzhai and Jiaokou Reservoir Water Diversion Project will utilize water resources and conform to the principle of rational development, economical utilization and effective protection, and water catchment of the project is rational.

2) Suggestions

Through rational regulation of the two serially linked reservoirs Zhougongzhai and Jiaokou, well deal with project water utilization process and water qualitr balance problem. meet the requirement of all water 193 users and improve water utilization factor. Strengthen environmental protection management work, determine reservoir to be a drinking water source protection zone to effectively protect it, completely and rationally implement various environmental protection measures and ensure the implementation of various water resource protection measures. When this project is completed, local governmental sectors' shall coordinate the relation between industrial economic development and environmental protection, control the construction of polluting and river enterprises in reservoir area and on the two banks of river in the lower reaches to prevent reservoir water quality deterioration, and set water quality monitoring points to observe change of water quality.

Alternative No.3 has unreasonable water system, larger

I 98 volume of works and highest investment & present value. Compared with Alternative No.2, Alternative No.1 has low project investment, operational cost and lowest total present value calculated in 20 years. It has the most advantageous economic parameters and a reasonable technical design. In addition, the safety of the water supply of Alternative No. I is analyzed as below: ( I) Putting out of service of raw water distribution tunnel After the finishing of the project, the total water supply capacity of Ningbo City will be 1.7 million m3/d. The regulation capacity of the Beilun Water Plant under faulty conditions is limited and should not be taken into consideration because only small part of its' 300,000 m3/d supply capacity can be utilized by the central urban area. As the result, the total water supply capacity for central urban area should be considered as 1.4 million m3/d. Whenever the tunnel of the project is put out of service, supply capacity will be reduced to 900,000 m3/d. The water supply ratio will be 64.3%, which is lower than the 70% stipulated in National Standard. According to the experiences in the world, the possibility for the tunnel fault is very low and with far more safety than normal water distribution pipeline. In addition, the guaranteed water supply ratio can be increased with appropriate increase of the supply volume of other water plants and partial volume supplied from Beilun Water Plant. After the putting into operation of Beidu Water Plant, the water supply capacity will be reduced to 1.2 million m3/d from 1.7 million m3/d whenever the tunnel of the project is put out of service. The guaranteed water supply ratio will be 70.6%, which meets the requirement of National Standard. For the western Jinzhou region, the major loop network for water distribution and output pipeline for treated water included in the project can be utilized to supply water from east to west to meet the water supply demand whenever Maojiaping Water Plant is put out of service. In addition, the diameter of the tunnel is determined to be 2.8m with designed velocity of 1.00 m/s to meet the requirement on non-silting velocity. The flow velocity will still meet the requirement on non-silting velocity when the actual flow rate is lowered to 70%. In this way the frequency of the putting out of service of the tunnel will be further reduced. In conclusion, the safety of the project is high when one raw water distribution tunnel is used. In fact, even the raw water distribution tunnel is put out of service, the guaranteed water supply ratio of the city will basically meet the requirement of National and Standard in the intermediate term or meet the requirement in long term. (2) Treated water output pipeline It is planned to use two output pipes for the output of treated water. The two pipes will be connected with crossover pipe and valves. When one of them is broken, the supply capacity of 350,000 m3/d (70%) can be guaranteed. In the mediate term, the total supply capacity for the urban area will be reduced to 1.25 million m3/d from 1.4 million m3/d, which reach the ratio of 89.3%. In the long term, the total supply capacity for the urban area will be reduced to 1.55 million m3/d from 1.7 million m3/d, which reach the ratio of 91.2%. 3 ) Major urban loop network for water distribution The major urban loop network for water distribution in this project is single-pipe loop network. According to the Feasibility Report, the guaranteed water supply ratio is over 70% even the breaking of the loop network happens in the least favorable section. In conclusion. Alternative No. I has higher safety. which can meet the requirement on water suppiv safety whenever any section is faulty or being put out of service. It also has the lower investment and operation cost.

199 less management difficulties and less comprehensive environmental impacts. We recommend that Alternative No.1 to be used due to its' advantages on the aspects of project construction, economic parameters, water supply safety and operational management etc.

The intaking inlets of the two layers will be opened at the upstream side. Based on the lowest water supply level and normal water supply level, the elevation of the intaking inlet of the bottom layer is determined to be 36m, which is 45 meter away from the well; the elevation of the intaking inlet of the top layer is determined to be 51m, which is 20 meter away from the well. The intaking inlet and the well will be connected with intaking tunnel with 2.8meter diameter (inner diameter). The bottom elevation of the well is 36m. The elevation of service platform is 69m. The elevation of the opening-closing platform is 78.5m. In the well, there are two steel flat gate with orifice size of 3 x 3m for water supply, one steel flat gate for service with orifice size of 3 x 3m and two removable steel trash screen with orifice size of 3 x Sm and opening-closing machine room on them.

Alternative No.2: Multi-layered intaking with intaking tower (two layered)

The multi-layered intaking tower will be located on the left bank of the dam and about lOOOm away from the left end of the dam. The tower is constructed with cast in place concrete. There are two intaking inlets on the tower. Based on the lowest water level and normal level of the reservoir, the elevation of the inlet of bottom layer is 36m with orifice size of 3 x 3m; the elevation of the inlet of the top layer is 49m with orifice size of 3 x 3m. There are two steel-structure flat water supply gates, one steel-structure service gate with orifice size of 3 x 3m. The fixed trash screen -will be install on the upstream. The service platform in the tower has the elevation of 69m and the opening-closing machine platform has the elevation of 78.5m. The room for opening-closing machine will be at the upper part of the tower.

Alternative N6.3. Deep layer, intakin2!with vertical well (single lavered)

The multi-layered intaking well is located on the left bank of dam and about 1000 meter from the end of the dam. The well will be excavated beside the bank and constructed with concrete lining. The bottom elevation of the well is 36m. The intaking inlet will be 45m away from the well and with bottom elevation of 36m. The intakine inlet will be constructed with underwater rock plug blasting and collecting of-broken rock.

201 According to above comparison, although the investment for the deep intaking with vertical well in Alternative No.3 is the least, the water quality obtained is bad due to the lower intaking level, which is not suitable for water supply project. The multi-layered intaking with vertical well method used in Alternative No. I combined the advantages of multi-layered intaking with tower and deep intaking with vertical well. The construction work in Alternative No.2 is easy. It utilize the low level in non-flood period (the level of the reservoir can merely be reduced to 50m). The construction work may be carried out with cofferdam for construction after taking consideration of the requirement during flood period. During the whole process of the construction, there are little affect on the irrigation of downstream farmland, water supply and power generation. This alternative has two inlets in different level that can introduce water with different quality to ensure the quality of the raw water. The investment of Alternative No.2 is between that of the Alternative No.1 and Alternative No.3. Therefore, we recommend Alternative No.1 (Mulii-layered intaking with vetical well) to be used.

5.3 Alternative scheme of water diversion line

5.3.1 Brief description of scheme

The comparison on water distribution route alternatives will be made with the condition that select Maojiaping (Migangdi) as the location of the water treatment plant.

(I ) Scheme 1: Water diversion by tunnel

Tunnel water catchment is arranged on the left bank of Jiaokou Reservoir dam and is about 1,OOOm from the left jetty head. After entering the tunnel, water passes through Huangnigang to Jiangao where water exits and the length of this tunnel length is about 783m with width of Jiangao being 80m and with buried steel pipe used; water enters tunnel from Jiangao throught Zhujia Mountain to Wangjiaao where it exits and tunnel length being 1,070m and length (width) of Wangjiaao being 150m and with buried steel pipe used; water passes Wangjiaao and then enters into Ganghang Mountain to Daao where it exits and the length of this tunnel section is about 2,530m with 260m buried steel pipe set at Daao; Water passes Daao and enters into Heshang Mountain and Fenghuang Mountain to Maojiaping Water Works (Migangdi) where it exits from tunnel and the length of this tunnel section is about 4,640m. As the tunnel is long and affects construction progress, two adits are specially set in Zhengjia Village and Jianao with length being 150m and lOOm (horizontal length) respectively. When adits are set, the 4,640m main tunnel is divided into three sections: the first tunnel section is 1,280m long, the second is 1,900m and the third is 1,460m. The total length of water diversion route for this scheme is about 9,529m including 9,030m tunnel with tunnel diameter (ID) being 2.8m; buried steel pipe is 490m long with pipe diameter being DN2500mm and total length of adit is 490m.

2) Water diversion by tunnel

This scheme is to arrange tunnel water catchment on the left side of Scheme I and the course trend is basically the same. Water catchment is arranged on the left bank of the dam and is about 1,200m from the jetty head. Water enters Huangnigang and exits from tunnel at Jiangao, and then it enters Zhujia Mountain. Ganghang Mountain. Daaoling and Fenghuang Mountain and exits from tunnel at Maojiaping Water Works (Migangdi) with the length of water diversion being about 9.340m. According to arrangement of the route, an adot is set at Wangjiaao and Daao respectively and the two adits are both I 80m long, and buried steel pipe is set 202 at Jiangao with the length being lOOm. The longest tunnel section for this scheme is 4,540m and single-side tunnel entry is 2,270m. The total water diversion route for this scheme is about 9,340m including 9,240m tunnel with tunnel diameter (ID) being 2.8m. Buried steel pipe is about lOOm with pipe diameter being DN2500mm and adit is 360m long.

(3) Combination of pipe and tunnel

Water catchment is arranged on the left bank of the dam and is lOOm from the jetty head. It passes through 200m tunnel and exits from tunnel near Miyan Chemical Plant. Then it is connected to steel pipe which is arranged along the road. The pipeline passes through Wangjia Chetou to go to hillside, and passes through Zhang Village and Zhangxing to enter tunnel at the hillside of Lingxia Village and passes through Heshang Mountain and Fenghuang Mountain to exit from tunnel at Maojigping Water Works (Migangdi). The total route length for this scheme is 9,800m including 6,400m pipeline with pipe diameter being DN2500mnm. Tunnel length is 3,400m respectively with tunnel diameter (ID) being 2.8m. In addition, adit is set at Jianao with the length being l OOm.

See figure 11 for arrangement of water diversion line scheme .5.3.2 Comparison and selection of alternatives

The comparison on the three altematives is shown in table 5-4.

Disadvantages: Large construction period. Disadvantages: slightly difficulties for construction; Disadvantages: largest larger investment longest construction period investment

As we see from above table, the investment of Alternative No.3 is significant larger (the fees for the handling of pipeline routing problems according to national policies are not included in the investment estimation). Although the investment of Alternative No.2 is less than Alternative No.1, it has long construction period that can not meet the urgent requirements on the water supply of western Jinzhou region. The slightly 203 larger investment of Alternative No.1 will bring the shortest construction period and relatively smaller environmental impart. The target proposed by the Jinzhou District Government to supply raw water in last year can be met with alternative No. 1. Therefore, we recommend Alternative No. I to be adopted.

5.4 Alternative scheme of water purification plant site

5.4.1 Brief description of scheme

The area supplied by the project is the western Jinzhou region (about 15 m3/d) and the main loop network of the city (about 35 m3/d). Therefore, the location of the water treatment plant should be selected between Jiaokou Reservoir and western Jinzhou region to be supplied, i.e. the front end of the western Jinzhou region. In principle, reversed supply method will be adopted. The elevation of the water plant should be high to utilize the level of Jiaokou Reservoir. Otherwise, the locations of the lateral tunnel for construction of the untreated water diversion tunnel should also be taken into consideration. The location alternatives for the water plant are listed as below:

( I ) Alternative No.1: On the hill northeast to Maojiaping Reservoir (referred as Maojiaping Location)

In this alternative, the plant will be located on the hillside northeast to Maojiaping Reservoir, which is close to Maojiaping Reservoir. The elevation of existing landform is between 144m to 25 m (the Yellow Sea Elevation, the same below). The elevation of the planned site is 125- 40m with low and plain landform.

(2) Alternative No.2: Laoyingyan south of Maojiaping Reservoir (referred as Laoyingyan Location)

In this alternative, the plant will be located 400 meter to the south of Maojiaping Reservoir. The elevation of existing landform is 118-70m with large irregularity. This location is close to Maojiaping Location and has similar conditions with it.

(3) Alternative No.3: On the two hills southeast to Jianao Village (Jianao Location)

The two closely located hills are Ikm away from Maojiaping Location. The elevation of one, of them is about 40-lOOm. Another is about 40 -7m. According to site investigation, they both have 500kv high-voltage power transmission tower on them. The towers are both located in the planned area for the water plant.

(4) Alternative No.4: Dofugang southwest to Jinjiang Town (Dofugang Location)

In this alternative, the water plant will be located at the southwest of Jinjiang Town closely. The elevation of existing landform is about 44-102m with large irregularity. This location is 6km away from Maojiaping Location. The water source, water plant and target area are located at the three points of a triangle. The distribution route of raw water and treated water are both increased largely. And this location will make it impossible to build the rav% water distribution tunnel. The project cost is increased because the raw water has to be distributed by pipeline instead of tunnel.

The relative locations of above four alternatives are shown in figure 5-1 below

Environmental No need for removing; No Small Smal Small impacts occupying of farmland and small environmental impact.

As we can see from above table, the Dofugang Location has reversed route and larger investment, which is unreasonable when viewing from the system in comparison with other alternatives. The earthwork volume of Laoyingyan Location is larger than Maojiaping Location with longer route on raw water and treated water distribution. It is not as reasonable as Maojiaping Location on economic aspect. The Jianao Location has less earthwork volume. But it has longer water distribution route. The high-voltage transmission tower located in the planned area is impossible to be moved, which brings unfavorable influence on the construction, operation and power supply safety of the water plant. Maojiaping Location has convenient traffic conditions, suitable location for lateral tunnels for the construction of raw water tunnel and shorler route. There is no need for removing in the planned area. It will not occupy farmland. It also has less earthwork volume and smaller 206 environmental impacts. It locates far away from centralized residential area and industrial area and meets the requirement for the development of the urban area. Therefore, we recommend Maojiaping Location to be adopted.

5.5 Alternative scheme of clean water pipeline direction

5.5.1 Brief description of scheme

location of water treatment 4 Three alternatives treated water route are planned according to the determined plant and targeted water distribution loop network:

(1) Alternative No.1

The pipeline (double pipes) for treated water goes out from Maojiaping Water Plant to the east along the access road of the plant until Jinheng Road. Then it goes to north along Jinheng Road until Hengjie Town. After going out of Hengjie Town, one of the double pipe goes to east along Jinxian Road to the Airport Road and connect with the water distribution loop network of the city. Another pipe goes to east along the planned Liangfeng Road until the Liangfeng Road Intersection on the Airport Road and connect with connect with the urban water distribution loop network. The route of Alternative No. I is shown in the attached figure 3.

(2) Alternative No.2

In this alternative, one distribution pipe will goes along the extension section of Liangfeng Road (the same with Alternative No.1). Another pipe from water treatment plant will be goes along the existing road between Jinheng Road to Guling Road after it reaches the Jinheng Road. It goes along the existing road to the west of Guling Town and turns to north until Jinxian Road. It then goes along the Jinxian Road to Airport Road and connected with the urban water distribution loop network.

The route of Alternative No.2 is shown in attached figure 12.

(3) Alternative No.3

In this alternatives, one distribution pipe will goes along the extension section of Liangfeng Road (the same with Alternative No.1 and Alternative No.2). The first part of another pipe is the same with Alternative No.2. The second part of it will goes to east after Guling Town in the existing farmland. It goes by the south of the existing Lishe Airport. Then it goes to the intersection of Jinzhou Road and Airport Road and connects with urban water distributi6n loop network. The general route of Alternative No.3 is shown in attached figure 13. 5.5.2 Comparison and selection of alternatives

The comparison on the advantages and disadvantages of the 3 treated water pipeline are listed in table 5-6

208 As summarized in the table, each of the alternatives has its' particular advantages. We will not recommnend Alternative No.3 due to its' larger difficulties as it has impacts on Lishe Airport. There is no much difference between Alternative No.1 and Alternative No.2 with the similar route. But the route of Alternative No.2 will go through towns and planned industrial park areas and has larger contradictions with their planning. Therefore, we recommends Alternative No.l to be adopted.

5.6 zero Solution

The environmental impacts are following if this project solution is canceled:

Increase water shortage in Ningbo city

The water supply volume for central city is already 861,000 m3/d in 2003. The designed total supply capacity is 820,000 m3/d for water plants that cannot meet the demand. The water plants have to work overload, which reduce the safety of water supply and water quality they provide. The management for water delivery is also increased.

The water demand in the scope supplied by existing water plants will increase in the future with the development of urban area of central city and raising of residential living standards. Under the present situations, the water supply capacity of the existing water plants is far from the meeting of increasing water demands. It is very hard to resolve the water shortage in central city if this project is canceled.

Little possibility to improve supply water Qualitv

The Meiling Water Plant (designed output of 100,000 m3/d) under Ningbo Water Utility Company use water source from Yao River. It is decided to supply water for industrial application because the water quality of Yao River is III-IV that are not qualified for living and drinking water resource.

Part the raw water (250;00 m3 /d) of Jiangdong Water Plant is supplied from the Nantang River water resource from Jinxin Waterway Network with water quality of Class III. In dry seasons, the water quality provided by the water plant will be influenced due the degradation of raw water quality with the increased concentration of pollutant in the waterways.

In the five water plants under Ningbo Water Utility Company, Beilun Water Plant has advanced purification process and design criteria. But other four water plants are all built between 1960- 1970 and designed according to the national design codes for water supply project and water quality criteria for drinking water applied at that time. Their water quality is difficult to meet the water quality criteria of existing national "Hygiene Code for Living and Drinking Water". Such as the representative index' for turbidity has been gradually increased from 5 NTU to 3NTU, then to I NTU. The water plant may only increase the dosage of coagulant and chlorine to meet existing quality criteria. This method increase the concentration of aluminum and chlorine in the water that influence safe drinking. Therefore, the actual water output have to reduce to increase water quality.

The existinu coagulating- precipitating - filtering - disinfecting process and facilities encounter many difficulties to meet the requirement on water quality and water planted stipulated in the "Hygiene Code for Drinking Water and Living Water" issued by Ministry of Public Health in 2001 and in the "-Standard

209 Guidelines for Modern Water Plant of Zhejiang Province (Draft) ". This water plant should be modified gradually to increase high-level purification procedures.

The.cancel of this project or resolve the water supply problems in Ningbo may resolve the shortage of water supply. However, the overall improvement of water quality is still a big problem that is very hard to be resolved.

Difficulties in the shutdown of out-of-date water supply facilities

The present water plants in Jinzhou District and most of the water plants in towns under it should be gradually shut down. The bad water resource, small output, low-grade equipment and facilities make the quality of the water them provided couldn't meet the existing national criteria on living and drinking water.

( I ) The quality of surface water resource cannot meet the national criteria

These water plants use reservoir or underground water resource have relatively better water quality. Generally, the quality of waterway network resource are low-graded. The waterway networks used include Jinxin, Jindong, Zhenhai and Beilun waterway networks. The water quality of these waterways at observation stations all fails to meet the criteria for Class II as the centralized water sources for living and drinking. The five Class III water body account for 38% and eight Class IV - Class V water body accounts for 62%, which are unqualified for the national criteria for drinking water and have serious influence on the water quality of these water plants.

(2) Small output and low-graded equipment and facilities for township water plant

With history and economical development differences on towns, these water plants are built diversely with one or multiple water plants in a town. Known from the statistics data, the total output of 41 township water plant is 488,000 m3/d and only 11,900 m3/d in average. The smallest output is only 1500 m3/d and largest output of 40,000 m3Jd. With the small scale and aimed at provide tap water, these water plants didn't pay enough attention on water quality. The purification equipment or facilities mostly are out-of-date and simple that cannot guarantee the water quality and safety.

(3) Lacking of professional management and technical staff with unqualified inspection method

The township water plants are under the administration of township government. The. professional management and technical staff are impossible for these small plants. The.low management level of them also influence the water supply safety and improvement of water quality. Most plants don't have the instrumentation and technician for complete standard water quality inspection tests. Generally, only the tunrbidity and residential chlorine will be inspected. It is not enough for overall understand of water quality.

(4) Serious leakage in pipe network

The leakage ratio in the distribution network in towns cannot be calculated with problems on the management and metering. There is no plan and design for these network that are mainly use concrete pipe. The lacking of professional design and construction leads to serious leakage with unqualified pipelines. The situation is changed in recent years. The nodular cast iron pipes have been used in the network with more attention paid on this issue.

210 The township water plants have many problems. They should be replaced by regional large-scale water plant and distribution system with the economical development, speeding up of urbanization and raising of living standard of residents.

Influences on citizen's health in Ningbo region

With the cancel of this project, the tense water supply situation will be intensified, the low grade water source have to be used that will finally influence citizen's health.

Obviously, construction of this project can meet the demand of water quality growth, improve supply water quality, raise the living standard of residents in urban and rural areas in Ningbo City, ensure the health of residents, improve the safety of urban water supply system and effectively exert the function and investment results of other construction projects. It is fully essential.

211 6.0 Economic break-even analysis on environmental impacts

6.1 Economic break-even analysis of the project

The major purpose of the project of the Ningbo's water diversion from Zhougongzhai (Jiaokao) Reservoir and urban water distribution loop network is to provide urban infrastructures to service the society. It is an absolute necessary production conditions for the production sector and a necessary condition for resident's living. Besides the partial economic benefits (water charge of the water treatment plant) can be evaluated with certain amount of money, the benefits of the project are mainly the social benefits that are difficult to be calculated with money. According to its' feasibility report, the major economical indexes of the project are listed in table 6-1.

21? As we can from above table, the Financial Internal Ratio of Return of the project is higher than the reference ratio of return of this sector; the pay off period is less than the reference pay off period of this sector. In addition, the sensitivity analysis demonstrate that the project have certain risk-prevention possibility. The break-even point will be reached only with 54.05% of the designed annual capacity, i.e. annual capacity of 270,300 m3/d. Therefore, the project is feasible with certain economic benefits when viewed from the aspects of financial analysig and national economic assessment.

6.2 Estimated investment on environmental protection and environmental benefits

6.2.1 Estimation and proportion analysis on the initial investment on the environmental protection measures

The investment on the environmental protection of the project is mainly used on the environmental protection measures taken during the construction period (such sewage treatment of workers, noise prevention, handling of disposal earth) and for the water treatment plant during operation period (sewage treatment and sludge treatment), landscaping, environmental assessment, monitoring cost etc. The investments on them are estimated as Table 6-2 below.

As seen from the table, the environment investment of the project is about 18.32 million RMB and account for 1.3% of the total investment of the project (1,410,736,500 RMB). 6.2.2 Estimation on operation cost of environment protection facilities

The estimation results of the operation costs for environment protection facilities and environment-monitoring cost are listed in table 7-3. After the finishing of the project, the cost for the maintaining of the operation of the environment protection facilities is 800,000 RMB; the training cost for the environment protection facilities is 70,000 RMB; the annual environmental monitoring fee is 40.000 RMB: the environment harnessing cost (the harnessing plan will be prepared according to the monitoring results of

214 operation period) is 200,000 RMB. The total is 1.41 million RMB, which accounts for 0.1% of the total investment of the project.

6.2.3 Effectiveness analysis of environmental investment

(1 ) Construction period

During the construction, certain controlling measures will be taken on the treatment of pollutants, such as domestic sewage of construction works, other construction sewage, domestic disposals, construction noise and dust etc, to efficiently reduce the discharge volume of pollutants and unfavorable affection on the environment. The damages on the ecological system and soil erosion will be prevented and reduced with promp5t transport and effective treatment of disposed earth to recover the vegetation damaged during construction. For example, as for the controlling of domestic sewage, the labor used in the construction is about 400,000 workday, which produce COD about 12 tons. The reduction ratio of COD of the pollution prevention measures can be calculated with 50%, which has good environmental benefits with reduction of 6 ton COD.

(2) Operation period.

During the operation, effective sound insulation and noise reducing measures will be taken to ensure the noise level in the scope of the water treatment plant meet the relevant standard. The normal operation of the related facilities with the treatment of sewage and sludge will be ensured by frequent or regular maintenance and inspection to guarantee the discharge of wastewater meet the applied standard. At the same time, more efforts will be made on the pollution prevention to implement all protection measures for the portable water source to ensure the water quality in Zhougongzhai Reservoir and Jiaokou Reservoir to ensure the healthy of residents.

6.3 Social benefits

In recent years. the population of Ningbo City and Jinxin terrain is kept on increasing The water supply demand will be largely increased with the speedup of the economical development of Ningbo City and increase of population The project will diverse the water from Jiaokou Reservoir to Maojiaping Water Plant by the distribution tunnels and laid steel pipe. It will not only efficiently improve the portable water quality to resolve the %sater supply difficulties in Ningbo City, and also plays an important role in the sustainable development of

215 the economy in urban areas. The beneficial area of the project including 6 districts: Jinzhou District, Haishu District, Jiangdong District, Jiangbei District, Zhenhai District and Beilun District with beneficial population over 200,000.

(I ) The water supply capacity will be increased after this project. It will play important role on the improve of the regional water quality and relieving of the water supply difficulties and stimulating the development on industrial production. (2) The water supply condition is one of the preconditions for a good investment environment. With this project, the attraction of investors from overseas and domestic will be improved. (3) It will meet the demand of enlarged urban water supply area. Nowadays, the water supply of the most of the town area of Jinzhou District are still supplied by the small water plants of these town. These water plants have many problems. According to the Ningbo General Planning and requirements of municipal government, the small water plants will be put out of service gradually. The town area will be included in the water supply scope of urban area. After the finishing of this project and Dongqianhu Water Plant, part of their output will be supplied to the west and southwest town areas of Jinzhou District to solve their water supply demands. This project will improve and meet the water supply demand of the these towns of Jinzhou District. (4) This project allows the existing large and medium water plants decrease their output to improve the water quality and meet requirements of the new issued national "Hygiene Standard of living and portable water". (5) It will improve the water quality and ensure the healthy of residents with quality reservoir resource. (6) The combined regulation ability of the existing water distribution network is insufficient. A large area will be affected and safety of water supply network will be decreased if one of the water plants is put out of service due to fault. At the meantime, the pressure of the water distribution network decrease annually with the increase of the water demand of central urban area. With this project, the distribution capacity with multiple water resources in urban area will be improved. It will improve the safety of the water supply and distribution and increase the water supply pressure of the network. (7) Improving comprehensive investment benefit with coordination with water resource project The construction of Zhougongzhai Reservoir Project had began after the approval of Ningbo municipal government, which will be used as.the water supply source for Ningbo urban area and will be finished in 2007. This project will utilize the Zhougongzhai- Jiaokou Reservoir as water source and fully utilize the comprehensive investment benefits of Zhougongzhai Reservoir. The water quality and demand of Ningbo City will also be met with the utilization of quality water resource. In conclusion, the project will meet the requirements for the economical and social deyelopment of Ningbo City and the increasing demand on water supply. It will improve the water supply quality and the living level of the urban and rural area of Ningbo City; improve healthy of residential; enhance safety level of the urban water supply system; effectively utilizes the function and economic benefits of other project, It will helps the sustainable development in econom), society and environmental with its' good economical benefits, social benefits and environmental benefits.

7.4 Environmental monitoring plan

7.4.1 Monitoring objective

Environmental monitoring includes two phases: construction period and operation period. Its objective is to comprehensively and promptly grasp the pollution trend of the planned project, know the degree of change and sphere of influence of the project construction for the environmental quality in the project region and the environmental quality trend in operation period and promptly feed back information to competent authorities so as to provide scientific basis for the environmental management of this project. 7.4.2 Monitoring organization

It is recommended that environmental monitoring during construction period and operation period be undertaken by the environmental monitoring department in Zhejiang Province. Ningbo Environmental Monitoring Center Station has passed national environmental quality monitonng certification and it has complete equipment and abundant technical force, and can complete the assumed environmental monitoring task satisfyingly. 7.4.3 Monitoring

To folloxv up and monitor the pollution during the project construction period and operation period, monitoring items shall choose noise, air environmental quality and water environment that have great impact on the environment. Monitoring factor is equivalent sound level A, TSP, CODCr and SS etc. Monitoring and analysis method will adopt that of corresponding items of "Technical code for environmental monitoring"

22, issued by State Environmental Protection Administration. Assessment standard executes the national standard confirmed for this environmental impact assessment. Environmental monitoring plan is formulated as table 7-3. 7.4.4 Monitoring equipment, monitoring cost and monitoring report system

7.4.4.1 Monitoring equipment and cost

224 7.4.5 Construction site patrol

To effectively control the environmental impact caused by construction activities, the environmental monitoring group must take effective measures to identify the possible problems before they occur rather than only rely on the monitoring data that reflects present situation. After confirming the potential problems, the environmental monitoring group shall report the builder and recommend it to take proper mitigation measures: The following work shall be carried out: ( I ) Examine the construction procedure of construction organization According to experience, it is difficult for construction organization to predict specific construction activities several months before construction and construction plan often deviates from project progress. Therefore it is important to obtain and inspect the construction organization's working plan for the next month each month in construction activities. This enables the environmental monitoring group to know the situation of work area, used equipment and equipment use plan and location, pay attention to the possible problems and remind the construction organization of potential problems and possible solutions. For example, re-formulate equipment use plan to reduce potential noise impact. The environmental monitoring group must modify the supervision and audit plan according to construction organization's construction plan for the next month to allow for some adjustments of monitoring time and point positions so as to meet the need of construction activities in the next month and report it to the competent department of environmental protection for approval. ( 2 ) Site patrol The environmental monitoring group shall periodically carry out unannounced site investigation to supervise and audit the construction organization in their implementation of environmental protection measures in environmental assessment and preliminary design and the "clauses of pollution control contract" to know whether environmental problems exist and to identify potential environmental problems. It shall record all observed results on site, and take photos if necessary. If there is any nonperformance or existing or potential environmnental problem and solution, it shall notify the builder and competent administrative department of environmental protection. (3) Special monitoring When carrying out site patrol, the environmental monitoring group, if necessary, shall be equipped with portable dust tester and portable noise inspector to carry out necessary special monitoring. This can help identify pollution source on site and this type of identification is helpful to finding the nght solution. All special monitoring data shall be recorded.

230 It can be known from table 8-4 that although the percentage and distribution of occupation composition and education composition of the respondents this time are uneven, it involves many aspects and has a good representativeness. In terms of occupation, it includes people at various social classes such as cadre, teacher, worker, farmer and self-employed worker, 21.6% of whom are cadres including leading cadres (cadres of local government sectors, neighborhood committees and villages) and common cadres; in terms of educational attainments, most of them are at junior college (including junior college) level and the investigation covers all levels from primary school to above college level; the age ranges from above 18 to below 70. It can be know from the investigation result of individuals in table 8-5, that most respondents know or very much know this project and only 22.7% had not known this project before they were told about this investigation; 38.1% respondents think the main factor affecting the living conditions in this region is water shortage; 96.9% respondents think the location of Maojiaping Water Works is rational; 67.0% think this project has a positive effect on local economy and most respondents (7 1.1%) think the project, after completion, will be conducive to the improvement of their own quality of life. For the environmental impact caused by water diversion from reservoir of this project in the questionnaire, the public are most concerned about ecological problem, then impact on water quality in the lower reaches of reservoir and then impact on groundwater, degree of concem being 44.3%, 33% and 25.8% respectively. The most concern about tunnel water diversion is waste residues (44.3%) and collapse (22.7%) caused by this project. In addition, most respondents (70.1%) think the overall impact of this project on the environment is small and acceptable, but hope civilized construction is carried out and the project is completed as scheduled; 15.5% think this project has no impact on the environment. The investigation result also shows that 88.7% respondents support the construction of this project, 4.1% are indifferent and 7.2% object the construction of this project, mainly being the fritillary farmers of Zhangshi Town in the lower reaches of Jiaokou Reservoir, who worry that ecological environment will be affected due to reduction of river flow after water diversion, which directly affect production, life and economic income (mainly comes from fritillary growing). They hope that effective measures are taken to ensure the domestic and production water for the people in the lower reaches of Jiaokou Reservoir and they are compensated so as to ensure social stability.

In addition, while issuing social questionnaire, we enquired suggestions from experts with Ningbo Environmental Protection Bureau, Yinzhou District Environmental Protection Bureau, Ningbo Environmental Sanitation Department, Ningbo Water Conservancy Bureau, Ninbo Jiangdongbei District Wastewater Treatment Plant and Ninbo City Planning Preliminary Stage Office. Experts from Ningbo Environmental Protection Bureau think that Maojiaping Water Works is far from residential area and environmental impact is small in construction period and operation period. Its site selection is basically rational. The main pollutant of its wastewater discharge is SS and SS content of raw water is relatively low, thus it will not cause water quality deterioration when discharged into nearby river network after treated to be up to standard. Experts from Ningbo Water Conservancy Bureau point out that it is necessary to well carry out water resource demonstration report an(l ensure that downstream ecological environmental will not be damaged while resolving the problem of water supply. Experts from Ningbo Environmental Sanitation Department proposes. in combination with present sludge disposal of wastewater treatment plant. that sludge from water purification plant shall be first

2'H dewatered and dried and comprehensive utilization shall be considered as much as possible to reduce the quantity of landfill and sludge shall not be discarded at will. Other experts also express support for this project.

8.6 summary of symposium investigation situation

8.6.1 Summary of the first symposium

On August 23, 2004, Yinzhou Construction Bureau and Ningbo Water Supply Company organized to hold the first symposium in Zhangshui Town where the project is located and 19 people attended the meeting:

(I ) Farmer representatives who use the rivers (mainly Zhangxi River) in the lower reaches of Jiaokou Reservoir to irrigate farmland;

(2) Fishery representatives who rely on water from Jiaokou Reservoir to breed aquatics;

(3) Some people affected by land requisition and relocation;

(4) Villager and resident representatives near sensitive points during construction period.

See table 8-6 for specific arrangement of the public conference.

The attendants generally think that construction of this project can increase quantity of supply water to meet the requirement of water consumption for urban construction, economic development and improvement of residents' living standard. Substitution of high quality reservoir water sources for present water works in villages and towns can improve supply water quality and safeguard residents' health andthe safety of urban water supply system and effectively exert the function and investment results of other construction projects. Therefore construction of this project is of great importance. However they also pointed out that this project will generate some adverse effect.

(1) Representatives of peasants who use the river course (mainly Zhangxi River) downstream of Jiaokou Reservoir think that direct catchment from Jiaokou Reservoir will result in the reduction of water flow in Zhangxi River, the change. of water quality, and thick growth of weeds on riverbed, affecting environmental appearance and causing ecoiogical imbalance; furthermore it will affect the production of fritillary and the drainage and irrigation equipment in villages, therefore they are worried.

(2) People engaged in aquaculture in the low reaches think that reduction of drainage flow from Jiaokou Reservoir will cause the reduction of water flow of downstream river network, but the impact should not be great as aquaculture is forbidden in Zhangxi River and downstream fish pond is relatively far from the project. The problem of greatest concern is income reduction due to impact, thus they hope to be compensated in case their income is affected.

(3) People affected by land acquisition think that Maojiaping Water Works should be proper as it is determined by related departments after consideration of various aspects. The most impact caused by this project is that they will have no source of income or their income will be reduced after land acquisition. Therefore thev think reasonable arrangement and compensation shall be carried out for land acquisition and relocation due to construction.

(4) Representatives of villagers and residents near sensitive points in construction period think that construction of water supply pipeline shall avoid water head site and cultural relic protection zone and avoid residential areas and agricultural planting areas as much as possible. The environmental problem of most 322 concern in construction period is construction noise followed by dust nuisance. They hope that appropriate measures will be taken and those most affected will be compensated properly.

Representatives attending the symposium express support for the construction of this project, but they also propose sonie suggestions and requirements:

I ) Enough compensation is given to the residents whose production, life and income may be affected by land requisition (including temporary land occupation) and construction according to related regulations; ( 2) Some drainage flow is ensured so as not to affect the residents' life and production water in the lower reaches of liaokou Reservoir; ( 3 ) Attention is paid to the ,noise during construction and some effective measures are taken in the locations where residential buildings are densely located; (4) Loss of fritillary land is maximized during construction, impact on traffic and residents' trip is reduced and the project is completed as scheduled; ( 5 ) Capitals are rationally and effectively utilized as the project investment is great; (6) Ecological welfare forest protection is strengthened and enlarged in the upper reaches of the reservoir region and vegetation protection capital is allocate to ensure water quality of water sources. 8.6.2 Summary of the second symposium

On October 12, 2004, Ningbo Water Supply Company organized to hold the second symposium in Meixi Village where the project is located and 21 people attended the meeting. They were mainly part of people affected by land requisition and representatives of villagers and residents near sensitive points during construction period.

Participants showed attention to the impact in construction period. What is of most concern for the sensitive points along the line is noise. In design, it is necessary to try to avoid residential areas and use pipe jacking method to lay. the pipe when it is -necessary to pass through residential areas so as to reduce construction impact on residents. In addition, the builder and the construction organization shall reasonably arrange construction time and prohibit night construction in residential areas and use low noise construction equipment. Concurrent use of high noise equipment shall be avoided. Participants express their understanding for the reason that impact is unavoidable and hope the construction period is shortened. Furthermore they require that appropnate measures be taken for dust nuisance and spoil etc during construction to avoid excessive impact and hope that construction period will not affect road access. Villagers incurring relativelv much land requisition are concerned most about compensation and hope that occupation of farmland (including temporarily occupied land) shall be as little as possible- Land requisition and relocation will be carried out according to relatecd national laws and policies for resettlement of affected residents and special migration agencv will be established. With the effort of ensuring that migrants can obtain compensation for all losses, the living standard ot the affected residents will be improved. The affected residents hope that this objective can be finally achieved

Representatives basically approve of the construction of this project and think that the resultant favorable influence is donunant and adverse effect is local and temporary and can be mitigated to some extent through corresponding environmental protection measures and compensation.

233 8.7 Information disclosure

8.7.1 Content of information disclosure

According to the requirement of World Bank environmental assessment policy and actual need, we conducted information disclosure in the second round of public participation. (1) When the first draft of environmental impact assessment report for this project was completed, we put up announcement in Meixi Village, Yinjiang Town where Maojiaping Water Works is situated and Ningbo urban area (Ningbo Water Supply Company) to advise the public that they can look up "Environmental impact report" (first draft) of this project and related information in related locations and feed back opinions and suggestions, and provided feedback mail box and hot line telephone to listen to the opinions and suggestions of the public. The time of announcement was from June 4 to June 14. For content of announcement, see appendix and photos. (2) Before normal review, "announcement" was published in "Ningbo Daily" on September 5, 2004 to let the broader social organizations and the masses know and participate in Zhougongzhai and Jiaokou Reservoir Water Diversion and Urban Water Supply Ring Network Project and advise the public that they look up "Environmental impact report" (for approval) of this project and related information on Net and in related locations. In addition, we provided feedback mail box and hot line telephone to listen to the opinions and suggestions of the public. The specific placement location and time was as follows; Data placement location: Bao Yugang Library reading room, Room 301, Ningbo Environmental Protection Science Research & Design Institute Net: www.nbepb.gov.cn/announcement; www.nbwater.com/Callboard Date placement time: starting from September 3, 2004 8.7.2 Information disclosure and feedback

According to periodic enquiry for feedback mail box and return visit to data placement location, we did not find feedback left words from the public in mail box and opinion book. Therefore we enquired the attendants in the reading room of Bao Yugang Library and they though that most staffs in the library enquire their needed information purposefully and only some staffs read the information on this project without leaving words. The main reason is: (I) Due to rapid living tempo and busy work, time is very precious. They did not think the project is closely related to them, thus they did not provide.any opinions; (2) The public expressed that this project is urban infrastructure, its objective is to serve the society and is benefwial to the people. thus nobody has any complaint and they did not leave words.

According to the measured value of major monthly water quality indices in 2002 and the measured value of all water quality indices measured in the first half year of 2001 to 2003 every year and with reference to the "Environmental quality standard for surface water" (GB3838-2002), water quality of Jiaokou Reservoir has attained Class I - 11 water body quality standard and conform to the source water quality requirement of national "Sanitation Specification of Domestic and Drinking Water'.

The water quality of Fanshidu section of Fenghuajiang river reached the Class IV defined in the Surface Water Environmental Quality Standard, the main over limit indexes are DO, oil and total phosphorus, but, in 2002, with tendency to better, all indexes met the requirements of Class III water quality defined in the Surface Water Environmental Quality Standard; all last two years indexes of the water quality of Qinglindu section of Yaojiang nver met the requirements of Class III water quality defined in the GB3838-2002 except that the index of BOD5 in 2001 was slightly over limit; Except BODs exceeded standard in 2003, other indices of Chenglang Weir of Fenghua River were up to standard in different years. Water quality of Sanjiangkou of Yongjiang River meet the Class IV water standard required by the plan and has not exceeded standard in all stages.

For estuary cross-section of Shanjiang River, a tributary of Fenghua River, Changting cross-section of Xianjiang River and Xiwu cross-section of Dongjiang River, cross-section water quality conforms to the requirement of water quality for functional area whether in level period, in high water period or in low water period over the last two years. Respective indices of outlet water from Jiaokou Reservoir (Zhangxi River) in 2003 conformed to the requirement of water quality for functional area.

Present water quality of Liangqiao cross-section of Yinjiang River was Class III and exceeded the requirement of Class 11 functional area. The main standard-exceeding substances are ammonia nitrogen, DO and CODmn ect. Heavy metals such as mercury, lead, tin, arsenic, hexavalent chrome and cyanide of all cross-sections in 2003 were in the water quality range of Class I surface water.

Evaluation of present situation of water environment indicates that reservoir water quality is better than river water quality and the water quality of Jiaokou Reservoir meets the requirement of source water quality for the water works of this project. Water quality of Yongjiang River changes from good in the upper reaches to bad in the lower reaches and tributary water quality is better than trunk stream water quality and changes from Class 11 to Class IV. Water quality of river is better than that of inland river network.

217 9.1.3 Urban environmental noise

According to the Ningbo environmental quality report of 2003 prepared by Ningo environmental protection bureau, the built-up area of Ningbo was divided into 216 grids with dimension of 500mx500m, the measured average equivalent sound level of local environment noise in 2003 is 53.3dB (A) which is lower than that in 2002 of 53.4dB(A). The equivalent sound level of environmental noise in the urban area of Ningbo City has been controlled below 56dB(A) for successively 8 years. In 2003, regional environmental noise in Ningbo City ranked the fifth among the 47 key environmental protection cities in the country, one position ahead compared with 2002.

In respect of the sound source constituent of noise, the constituent ratio of domestic noise is the highest up to 51.4%, traffic noise take second place up to 35.6%, therefore, the domestic noise becomes the main noise source of Ningbo city.

The present noise monitoring result of this environmental assessment indicates: the plant site of Maojiapin water plant and Jiaokou reservoir (proposed site for water tower) now have good acoustic environment quality, noise in day and night meets the Class I criteria specified in "Standard of Environmental Noise within Urban Area"(GB3096-93); except that the day and night noise level of Chuxianerdao highway is accepted, other monitoring points measured the night noise level over limit with different extent due to the effect of traffic noise; the noise levels measured at Fenaodongcun of Hengyanlu road and Yujia of Yanxiandadao road also are over limit. 9.1.4 Ecological environmental quality

This area has been under the influence of human activities for a long history. The original natural ecological system is all damaged. The low hilly area on west of the water plant is planted with artificial forest. The east of the plant is terrain with farrmland and artificial buildings.

Yinzhou District in the project location has a good ecological environmental quality, vegetation coverage is high and soil erosion is small.

The investigation and monitoring result of present situation of aquatic ecology indicates that Zhangxi River section from Jiaokou Reservoir in Yinjiang to Tashan Weir is flashy stream with short source and rapid flow. The resource of hydrobiont.is scanty and there are no rare and precious aquatic plants and amumals nor migratory fish and fish spawning site, thus resource of a certain economic value is not formed.

9.2.2 Major pollution source and pollutants of the engineering project

(1) Raw water catchment (catchment tower) and conveyance project

10 Construction period

Noise pollution and dust nuisance (or ground dust) etc may be produced during construction period. Domestic refuses and domestic wastewater caused by construction personnel and water and soil erosion etc caused by rainstorm runoff. Discarded earth and stone from water inlet tunnel; the expected production of waste residues will be 100,000m3

'9) Operation period

The impact of raw water catchment and conveyance project on ecological environment mainly is the reduction of runoff volume of river section downstream of Jiaokou Reservoir and the reduction of water environmental capacity of downstream river section.

(2) Clean water conveyance project

A1,ConstrLction period

239 Construction dust nuisance (or ground dust), noise produced by construction machinery and transport vehicles, domestic refuses and domestic wastewater produced by construction personnel, water and soil erosion caused by rainstorm runoff etc.

C2) Operation period

Generally, covering earth above pipes is 2.0-2.5m thick. Vegetation will be restored after burial of water conveyance pipes, thus this impact on ecology is small.

(3) Water purification plant project

©1Construction period

Leveling of construction site for water purification plant involves a great quantity of earth and stone, but basic balance of earth and stone can be realized. As there a large number of construction personnel, impact on environment during construction period will be: construction dust nuisance (or ground dust), noise generated by construction machinery and transport vehicle, domestic refuses and domestic wastewater produced by construction personnel, water and soil erosion caused by rainstorm runoff etc.

(® Operation period

Pollution source in operation period is mainly the noise produced by equipment. Noise of water purification plant mainly comes from various pumps and operating equipment and its value is approximately 60-9OdBA.

In addition, discharge of sludge dewatering and backflush water and a small amount of domestic wastewater will be produced. After calculation, the produced dewatered sludge is 17.8t/d (dry sludge).

Risk of chlorine and ammonia leakage may exist in operation period.

(4) Main water distribution ring network project

01 Construction period

Construction dust nuisance (or ground dust), noise generated by construction machinery and transport vehicle, domestic refuses and domestic wastewater produced by construction personnel, impact on landscaped vegetation.

02 Operation period

Due to use of gravity flow water conveyance, main water distribution ring network project will not have significant environmental pollution problem during operation period.

9.3 Project's environmental impact on the assessed area

9.3.1 Assessment of environmental impact during construction 9.3.1.1 Analysis of atmospheric environment impact during construction period

(I ) Analysis of dust emission during construction period

In the process of construction of water catchment towers and tunnels, blasting work and construction of water purification plant, and installation of pipelines. if proper protection measures are not adopted for the concrete mixing plant, earthwork handling and waste dumps, dust enmission will occur during excavation work.

240 transportation and handling of pipes, ground finishing and construction. The results of analogy investigation show the dust emission is mainly from the temporary road for construction in the job sites and its coverage will be 5t0m-wide areas both sides of the road. To some extent, the coverage of dust emission is related with the wind strength and climate. The most adverse effect caused by dust emission mainly presents in the windy weather. Therefore, during construction period, when continuous fair weather is encountered or windy weather will be coming, the sprinkling measures for the temporary road for construction, work yard and earth deposits should be performed to prevent dust emission, the sprinkling equipments should be provided and operated by the dedicated personnel, in addition, the construction contractor should implement the cleaning regulations; the cement and other fine particle loose material should be stored indoor and covered properly to prevent from missing and flying upward in transportation; for the waste dump, the conservation of soil and water should be done well to prevent dust emission.

(2) Waste gas impact analysis during construction period

Major sources of construction waste gases include: waste gas emission from various oil burning machineries such as wheel loader, dump truck and excavator, tail gas generated by transportation vehicles and waste gas e-emission from cooking range in temporary canteen for constr uction team.

- Major pollutants of construction waste gases are: NOX, CO and hydrocarbon (HC) etc. The discharge amount of these pollutants is small and it only has some impact on constnrction personnel and has minor impact on regional environment.

In order to minimize the adverse effect, all units exhausting fume employed during construction period, such .as furnace and kiln, cooker and power generator, should be the acceptable products, the emission of harmful gas should be meet the requirements specified in national standard; strengthening the inspection and maintenance of vehicles for construction, it is not allowed to use the vehicle beyond its service life or with emission exceeding accepted values specified in standard; the vehicles for construction should be with lower oil consumption and less ernission, and supplied with high quality fuel oil as far as possible, to minimize the harmful waste gas emission from machineries and vehicles.

9.3.1.2Analysis of water-environment impact during construction period

(I ) Analysis of environmental impact caused by production waste water

(W Raw water catchment and conveyance project and water purification plant project

Construction and production wastewater of raw water catchment and conveyance project and water purification plant project is mainly produced from sandstone production system and concrete mixing system as well as construction machinery maintenance and washing wastewater. Sandstone production wastewater is mainly material washing wastewater with great quantity and sand content can reach 4-70kgIm 3 Concrete mixing \wastewater and concrete placement wastewater are the strongly alkaline wastewater generated from the process of concrete production and its main pollution control indices are SS and pH.

. Washing wastewater for machiner\ and vehicle maintenance mainlv contains mud and sand and oil stain and its main pollution control indices are SS and petroleum-If production wastewater is not treated, water resource will be wasted and environment 'will be polluted According to estimation, wastewater discharge is about 100m'/d

241 Treatment devices are located in concrete mixing system, grit processing system and construction machinery maintenance parking station in the seven construction areas. The production waste water should be treated to meet the requirements of standard prior to drainage to the river network of downstream, so, it makes less adverse effect to the water environment.

Construction of water inlet is in liaokou Reservoir. As there is cofferdam, production wastewater will enter the reservoir to pollute reservoir water. Therefore construction and production water at water inlet must be recovered and undergo sedimentation treatment to reach standard before discharge. Production wastewater is not allowed to enter reservoir.

In addition, This project is in the river valley in mountainous region and seepage water exists. In addition, there are construction waste water and massif water seepage in tunnels. It is necessary to always use ZB 19 water pump to pump drain the water during construction period. The pollutants in the discharged wastewater mainly are suspended matters with small water quantity and will be discharged after preliminary treatment.

(2)Clean water conveyance main pipe project and urban water distribution ring network project

The construction wastewater impact of clean water conveyance main pipe project and urban water distribution ring network project includes the impact of pipe cleaning wastewater and the impact of river course construction on river water quality.

Sectional pressure test pipes during pipe construction need to be cleaned after pressure test is passed. Water used for cleaning must be clean and all openings of the cleaned pipe section must be plugged to prevent secondary pipe pollution. When cleaning, it is necessary to clean pipes in the pipe slope direction to discharge contaminated water. When the whole pipe is cleaned, it is necessary to ensure that discharged cleaning water does not contain sand beads and discharged water quality approximates washing water quality. Discharged cleaning water shall not leak into pipe foundation ditch and foundation. Mud valve on pipes can be used to discharge water to nearby streams. The main pollutants of cleaning wastewater is suspended matter and basically contains no organic matter and inorganic salt, thus it can directly enter urban wastewater pipe.

Pipes will undergo final flushing after backfilling. Flushing shall be made by utilizing the reachable flow rate in the pipe until the water at the inlet is -the same as the water at the outlet through visual observation. Depending on actual situation, final flushing water shall be reutilized as much as possible to be used for road water spray or other purposes.

In addition, pipe bridge work needs to build bearing pile foundation and construction needs to be done in river course, thus it has some impact on water quality of river course. This impact is mainly agitation of bottom material which increases SS content of river water, but SS can settle naturally. If construction is carried in the bed mud part that may cause serious pollution, it is necessary to pay attention to the disposal of pollution soil.

(2) Environmental impact analysis of domestic wastewater

Construction domestic wastewater is produced by management personnel and construction personnel entering the site during construction period. The main pollution control indices of domestic wastewater are BOD5, CODCr, NH -N and SS etc and its discharge is regular. Based on 1,600 people in peak construction penod, 3 domestic water consumption per person everyday is 0.05m , 80m~' in total, and average daily discharge of

242 domestic wastewater is 56m3. The domestic wastewater of raw water catchment and conveyance project, water purification plant project and clean water conveyance main pipe shall be collected and treated with integrated domestic wastewater treatment equipment to reach the standard and be discharged; construction domestic wastewater in urban area can be directly discharged into urban wastewater pipe.

9.3.1.3Analysis of noise impact during construction period

(1) Raw water catchment & conveyance work and water purification plant project

The reach distance of noises generated from various construction machineries normally is approx. 40m by daylight, basically, the noise at 200m at night will be the standard value of 55dB(A). The water purification plant located on the hill has a distance of 200m from the nearest sensitive point, therefore, less effect caused by noise during its construction can meet the class I daytime limit (55dB(A)) specified in the ((Standard of environmental noise of urban area)) (GB3096-93) . However, in order to avoid the construction at night disturbing residents, it is necessary to strengthen management and strictly follow the requirements specified in the ((Noise limits for Construction Site)) (GB12523-90). It is recommended to apply advanced construction processes and low-noise equipments and reasonably arrange construction time to avoid many high-noise equipments operating simultaneously and arrange the work generating high noise in daylight.

For the noise occurred during massif blasting in construction is sudden with short duration, anyone outside of safety distance of blasting will not be affected basically. Therefore, so long as do not arrange the blasting at night, the effect on periphery noise environment will be less.

(2) Clean water conveyance main pipe project and urban water distribution ring network project

During the construction of clean water conveyance main pipe project, the noises are mainly generated from the construction machineries, transportation of building material, and treatment of pile foundation. Because the pipeline will across some residential areas such as Hengjie Town, the construction noise will have some effect on the residents' production and living environments, especially, at night, it will disturb the residents to some extent. Since .the urban water distribution ring network project will be implemented in the urban, more passengers through the job sites, there are such sensitive points as residential areas and schools near the job sites, and some sensitive poirnts is only 5m from the job site, the construction noise will have some adverse effects on people's normal life.

According to the ((Noise limits for Construction Site))(GB12523-90) , noise limit in the daytime is 65- 85dB, that at night 55dB. By forecasting and analogical analysis, it is expected the n6ise from machineries for construction in the daytime will reach the specified limit at 40m far from the job sites and at night. the distance will be 200m for the standard value (55dB(A)). The pipeline will be laid along the highway. the noise on both sides of highway refers to the class IV limits specified in the ((Standard of environmental noise of urban area)l

GB3096-93) . that is to say, 7OdB(A) in the daytime and 55dB(A) at night. Therefore, noises in the daytime have less effect on the sensitive points near the pipeline. but the environmental noise at night will exceed the limit greatl) so as to seriously disturb the rest of residents along the pipeline Thus, on the sections along the pipeline

there are residential buildings, it is not allowed to carry out the construction work- which will cause noise pollution

243 to residents' living environment. For the special work needs to be done continuously, the approval certification issued by the people's government at the county level or above or relevant authorities should be available, and it is necessary to inform the affected residents for understanding.

9.3.1.4Analysit of solid waste impact during construction period

(I) Raw water catchment & conveyance work

Because of more buildings in the raw water catchment and tunnel water conveyance project as well as excavation of tunnels, a large quantity of earthwork may be produced and the main construction garbage is the waste residues. The project will place four waste dumps with a total surface area of 61mu, the current land status is woodland. The waste dumps occupying the land will affect the vegetation growing on the places so as to weaken the previous conservation of water and soil. When it is raining heavily, water and soil losses will be intensified and dust emission will occur. If no necessary prevention and protection measures are adopted, soil will be eroded by rainwater and flood and carried to the river course resulting to accumulation of mud and raise of water level so as to adversely affect the safety of flood. Therefore, the water and soil conservation for waste dumps should be well done.

The output of waste residue of the project totals to 305,80Om3. The earthwork balance has been completed preliminarily in design procedure. The excavated stone from tunnels will be used as the concrete aggregate as much as possible. The waste residues used for the project and Ningbo urban construction totals to 205,100m3, the surplus will be transported to above mentioned 4 waste dumps. Because the waste dumps will occupy the woodland, improper protection measures for waste residues will result in dust emission, even the water and soil losses. It is suggested to comprehensively utilize the waste residues to the utmost extend. The waste residue mainly include the stone from excavation of tunnels of the raw water catchment and tunnel water conveyance project. Considering many projects under construction and proposed to be implemented in the project site, Dongqiao town of Yinzhou, the waste residues can be used as the filling materials for buildings and roads construction of these projects. The excavated earth is generally the fresh soil unpolluted by construction, therefore, it can be used for farmland repair soil, green belt soil and covering soil of landfills to minimize the waste residue- quantity.

(2) Water,purification plant project

As water purification plant is situated on hill side, smooth blasting is used, side slope is excavated and ravine reclamation is made. Although a large quantity of earth and stone is produced dufring project construction, waste residues will not be generated as the quantity of earth and stone from side slope excavation is basically same as that from ravine reclamation.

During construction of water purification plant, waste building materials, industrial surplus materials and leftover refuses will be produced. These solid wastes will be collected and reutilized by the construction company and the owner and those unable to be utilized can be transported to the designated location for safe landfill.

(3) Clean water conveyance main pipe project and urban water distribution ring network project

244 The main solid wastes produced by clean water conveyance main pipe project and urban water distribution ring network project during construction period are temporary construction earth piles and domestic refuses.

In project construction, temporary earth piles may be made on the two sides of channels due to earthwork excavation. If management is improper, dust nuisance and sandstorm may be caused in case of wind to affect the environment.

Temporary earth piles in pipeline construction will be back filled during late construction stage and original land function will be restored. When construction is completed, temporary earth piles will not generate environmental impact.

9.3.1.5 Ecological environmental impact analysis during construction period

(1 ) Impact analysis of reservoir and river aquatic ecosystem

During construction of raw water catchment and conveyance project, some mud and sand may enter reservoir to affect reservoir water quality and ecological environment. When pipes run through rivers and fish ponds, they may cause some impact on bottom materials of rivers and fish ponds if pipe sinking method is used for construction. When running through Huangzhi River, underwater excavation and burying method is used for construction in river course, which will disturb bottom materials of rivers and cause some impact. Impact on aquatic ecosystem is mainly because content of suspended substances in water increases after entry of mud and sand or agitation of bottom materials. From aquatic ecosystem point of view, increase of suspended substances weakens euphotic layer thickness in water body so that it reduces primary productivity of water body and causes decrease of phytoplankton biomass, which generates impact on the quantity of living beings in the higher-level biological chain, e.g. reduction of fish biomass. At the same time, excessive suspended substances generate significant inhibiting effect on the survival of caridoid larva. With reference to the test result of suspended sediment toxic effect on aquatic organisms, when suspended sediment reaches 9mg/l, it will generate some impact on the survival rate of zooplankton and photosynthesis of phytoplankton.

(2) Impact analysis of forestry ecosystem and agricultural ecosystem

The main impact of this project on forestry ecosystem and agricultural ecosystem is land occupation by the project, which is divided into permanently occupied land and temporarily occupied land.

Permanently occupied land of this project is mainly the land occupied by water purification plant and the permanently occupied land is 9.35 hectares.

This project temporarily occupies 11 Imu land, of which 50mu is for construction site including construction plant facilities and 50mu for excavation waste dumps. The temporarily occupied lanid includes 78mu mountain forest, 22mu farm land and I Imu fritillary land.

Permanent land occupation directly changes original surface configuration and present land utilization situation and causes permanent loss of biological productivity, ecological environment being impossible to recover. Temporary land occupation changes the original surface configuration and results in vegetation damage and farmland deterioration in a certain period. Its direct impact on agricultural ecological.environment is farmland occupation and resultant agricultural loss. With project retirement and manual landscape and ecological restoration, the biological productivity and original land utilization function can be restored to some extent. 245 Although this project occupies some land, the proportion of various land occupation in existing land is very low. Therefore land occupation by this project will not bring significant adverse effect on local land utilization structure.

(3) Vegetation damage and animal impact

Vegetation damage and animal impact during construction can be divided into permanent habitat damage, habitat disturbance and temporary habitat disturbance.

(I)Permanent habitat damage

Excavation of intake tunnel involves 12 working faces and will permanently occupy some forest land. Plants will be felled and vegetation will be affected, causing damage to bird habitat.

The region where site of water purification plant is selected belongs to low mountain hill and existing hillside vegetation coverage is sparse and is mainly shrubbery. Construction may cause unrecoverable damage of some habitats, for example, felling plants causes damage to bird habitat.

During project construction, if original vegetation in the selected site area is basically damaged, the birds, insects and reptiles (e.g. snake) that rely on these plants as habitat will completely disappear.

(g)Habitat disturbance

During project construction, activities of the construction company and construction noise may disturb the living beings in the scope of work. Due to disturbance by human activities, some animals may temporarily leave to evade human activities and vegetation damage in construction area will force animals to leave for surrounding areas. Such disturbance will not cause reduction of animal species and quantity and its impact is transient.

() Temporary habitat disturbance

Some sudden manmade incidents during construction will cause disturbance to ecological environment in this region, but such disturbance is recoverable. Generally, covering soil on top of pipes is usually 2.0-2.5m deep. Therefore as long as restoration of vegetation above pipes after pipe burial is carried out, original habitat will not be greatly affected.

During construction of clean water conveyance main pipe, in order to lay pipes, excavation and backfill will be made to forest land and farmiand and excavation will cause impact on vegetation ecological environment. After backfilling, forest land and farmland can be basically restored to original ecological level.

(4) Construction impact on soil environment

Main soil type along the line of the planned project is clay. Soil is a type of complicated complex of inorganic and organic substances and is composed of mineral substances, water, air and living-organism while good condition of water. manure, air, heat and cultivation determines the extent of soil fertility. Construction activities will surelv affect soil physicochemical property and soil structure to cause soil environment.

O)Impact on soil structure

Soil structure is the combined situation of various soil layers in soil profile, and characteristic and physicochenucal propertv of different soil layers differ greatly. As long as structure is concerned, top soil density is moderate with better micro aggregate structure and good hair canal performance and bottom subsoil is relativelk 246 tight and heavy. In terms of nutrient, top soil is much better than subsoil layer and it has high content of organic matter, total nitrogen, and rapidly available phosphorus and potassium nutrients. Its density and pore situation is moderate and it has strong soil workability, and active microorganisms. Pipe construction will surely disturb original soil structure and make original soil layer combination disordered, causing mixing of immature soil and mellow soil, aggregate structure damage, soil capillary breakage, adverse change of microorganism species and quantity and inability to well decompose and release soil nutrients. As a result, soil nature is deteriorated and ground vegetation growth is further affected and even difficult to restore.

02 Impact on soil density

When pipes are backfilled after buried, it is usually difficult to restore original density. Excessively loose backfill will cause infiltration of irrigation and precipitation and make soil layer apparently collapse to form groove; and excessively dense backfill will affect growth of plant root system and infiltration of water. As a result. soil productivity level above pipe and adjacent section will decrease and is difficult to restore into the production level before construction.

In addition, during pipeline construction period, treading by construction personnel and rolling by material transportation vehicles and heavy machinery will also cause over-density of top soil on the two sides of pipes and reduce soil permeability and water permeability, generating adverse impact on the growth of plants.

9.3.1.6 Groundwater environmental impact analysis during construction period

During construction of water catchment and conveyance tunnel, mainly the groundwater existing in lithoclase seeps to the construction working faces to cause water accumulation in working faces and affect construction. For this reason, it is necessary to carry out special drainage.

As rock mass fissure development degree in the project area is low and rock stratum water containment is poor, fissure water is made up by atmospheric precipitation and water quantity is small, after completion of tunnel construction, grouting is carried,out on the inner wall of tunnel. Grouting is carried out in the sequence of first backfill and then consolidation, Consolidation grouting is constructed by the method of inter-ring sequence and intra-ring compaction and in-hole circulating one-time grouting method is used to avoid tunnel water leakage.

In addition, during groove excavation for clean water conveyance main pipe and urban water distribution pipe network, groundwater may seep into grooves in the local section where groundwater level is shallow (less than 2m) and drainage is needed. As groove excavation depth is usually in 2m range and groove leak water is mostly phreatic water in loose sediment, it is made up by atmospheric precipitation and water quantity is small. Similarly, manual pumping drainage of groundwater will cause great drop of regional eroundwater level and the discharged groundwater is usually discharged into nearby surface streams.

In a word, the underground water can not disturb the construction seriously The pump drainage of water under working face has a little effect on water environment.

247 9.3.1.7 Soil erosion impact analysis during construction period

In the construction section (including transportation detour), due to treading by construction personnel and destruction of machinery operation to surface vegetation and soil structure, area-by-area exposed land will be caused and soil erosion will occur in case of rainstorm and gale weather.

During construction, various working surfaces (including material yard detour) tend to cause wind erosion under the action of wine force especially gale, which appears mainly as construction dust nuisance. Cumulous soil generated from construction tends to cause sand dust by gales in spring and autumn due to soil looseness and cause soil and water erosion.

Due to loose earthwork in working face during excavation and filling work in construction period, new soil and water erosion tends to be caused under the action of rainwater and flood washing.

The current land status of waste dump is woodland. The waste dumps occupying the land will affect the vegetation growing on the places so as to weaken the previous conservation of water and soil. When it is raining heavily, water and soil losses will be intensified and dust emission will occur.

When reconstruction is completed, as restoration of soil structure and natural vegetation in construction area needs some time, soil and water erosion along the line will continue. But with extension of time, change of soil structure, restoration of surface vegetation and completion of some protection such as forestation measure, revetment and other protection work, the range and impact degree of soil and water erosion will be gradually reduced.

During construction period, it is necessary to try to reduce vegetation damage; waste sand, sand and earth shall not be dumped into trenches out of storage area; after completion of the project, it is necessary to plant trees and grasses on the exposed land of borrow pit, excavation face and waste sand, stone and earth storage area to prevent soil erosion.

In order to minimize the water and soil losses of waste dumps, the retaining wall made of mortar and stone should be built along the outside of waste dump before disposal of waste residues to maintain the waste dump basically stable. When disposal, the waste residues should be disposed by layers and compacted immediately after disposal. To minirnize the erosion by collected water around the dump, the drainage facilities should be built around the dump to lead the collected water. After disposal of waste residues, the top and slope of waste dump should be laid with covering soil, leveled and restored to be the woodland or protected by other greening methods.

9.3.1.8 The affection on labor's health during construction

(I ) Impact on people's health

The average labor number used during the construction of this project is 1200 person/day with peak labor of 1600 person/day. The total labor used is about 400,000 workdays. The total construction period is about one year. During the construction, the bursting out of the contagious diseases is very easy happened because of the densely used large amount of labors, lirmted construction site, unfavorable living conditions in working site. Therefore. attention must by paid on the hygiene conditions in working area.

(2) Mlitigation measure

248 During construction of the project, it is required to set medical and sanitary facilities in living quarters and well conduct medical and sanitary work in the construction area; strengthen quarantine management in water catchment and canteen to disinfect and monitor supply water sources and ensure environmental sanitation of construction area; carry out comprehensive physical examination, for construction personnel and prohibit the personnel having infectious diseases from entering construction site. The personnel having infectious diseases shall be separated and treated and the people around them shall be treated with prophylactic inoculation; canteen staff shall undergo periodic physical examination and shall be treated if found to have epidemic diseases and transferred from canteen to prevent outbreak of infectious diseases.

9.3.1.9 Social impact analysis during construction period

During construction period, it will cause short term impact on the social environment along the line, which mainly includes:

(X) Construction occupies farmnland and road, which increases the load of existing road and affects travel of nearby villagers;

(2) Construction vehicles frequently pass by such densely populated areas such as villages and schools, which may possibly capse hidden trouble for local traffic accidents;

® Uncivilized behaviors of some construction personnel may cause impact on local residents and crops.

The above impacts can be avoided to a great extent or completed eliminated through rational arrangement of construction plan and civilized construction. Therefore the construction company shall formulate perfect construction plan and strictly require construction personnel to alleviate social impact caused by construction. 9.3.2 Environmental impact assessment during operation period

9.3.2.1 Impact on optimizing allocation of regional water sources

Analysis of the project water resource demonstration report has sufficiently showed that water sources in Ningbo City are not evenly distributed in term of time and space and must be adjusted by reservoir and water diversion project.

Thirty percent of the water supplied by Ningbo's water plants is necessary living water for residents. Forty percent of it will be used by industrial production. The average water consumption rating of Ningbo's industry enterprises reaches the most advanced water. utilization level in China with high unit production value and reasonable structures due to the good industry foundation of Ningbo City. Thle enlarged water supply will helps the production of higher economic and social benefits.

According to the evaluation on the existing water environment in Ningbo City, the water quality of reservoir is better than that of the river; the quality of branch of Yongjiang River is better than mainstream; the quality of river is better than internal waterway network. The project follows the water source configuration principle that used better source water for high grade demands.

With the implementation of the Zhougongzhai, Jiaokou Reservoir diversion and urban water distribution loop network project, the optimization of the regional water resources will be accomplished to effectively resolve the existing problems on the water supply for the urban and rural residents and industries.

249 9.3.2.2 Impact on hydrological regime in the lower reaches and water catchments

after completion of this water diversion project, water quality will decrease under different factors of assurance, maximum drainage flow lags behind compared with reservoir incoming flow, and hydrological regime of the lower reaches will change relatively greatly. In addition, it indicates that the joint operation of Zhougozhai and Jiaokou Reservoirs embodies the reservoir adjustment function. In addition, in the lOOkm2 catchment area from Jiaokou Reservoir to Tashan Weir there are a series of small streams flowing to Zhangxi River. There is a stream flowing into the river at I km downstream of the dam.

Furthermore,, from the analysis of discarded water quantity of Jiaokou Reservoir, converted to monthly average flow, the minimum monthly average flow in low flow years (P=90%) can reach 0.82m3/s. Thus it further indicates that although hydrological regime in the lower reaches of Jiaokou Reservoir can change to some extent due to water catchment from Jiaokou Reservoir to Tashan Weir, this river section will not incur discontinuous flow of river course in the lower reaches due to water diversion.

According to the project water resource demonstration report, balance calculation of water diversion project includes the total lO,OOOm3/d water consumption at respective water catchments from Jiaokou Reservoir to Tashan Weir and the irrigation makeup water quantity in Yinxi Plain. These two parts of water will be drained from reservoir through river courses to water catchments and Yinxi river network in the lower reaches. When this project is completed, it will have very small impact on the river courses in the lower reaches and river network water catchments.

9.3.2.3 Minimum ecological and environmental water demand of downstream river course

(1) Minimum environmental water demand of downstream river course

The frequency analysis for average monthly drainage flow of Jiaokou Reservoir from 1974 to 2003 shows that in the low flow year with p=90%, the minimum average monthly flow occurs in December and flow is 0.39m3/s.

According to Ningbo ground water environmental function area division, the water environmental function area of Jiaokou to Tanshan Weir river section belongs to Class II water source protection area and the calculation design water flow condition of its environmental capacity (pollution receiving capacity) shall be the low flow year with p=90%,(typical year is 1980),

At this time, the minimum month-average flow rate will be 0.39m3/s, i.e., the minimum environmental water demand of river course downstream of Jiaokou reservoir.

(2) Minimum ecological water demand of downstream river course

The investigation and monitoring result of aquatic ecology shows that there are no valuable and rare animals and plants and no migration fishes and fish spawning ground in the river section between Yinjiang Jiaokou reservoir and Tashan Weir, thus it has not formed the fish resources of some economic value. The present research for reiated ecological water demand indicates that the minimum ecological water demand of rivers in a region generally shall be greater than or equal to the minimum natural flow in the low flow period of the dry year. In ,addition, the analysis of measured flom from Jiaokou Reservoir from 1794 to 2003 also shows that the measured minimum monthly average drain. flow in 30 years was 0.012m+/s (for details refer to table 4-3 "Statistical table of 250 total water flow from Jiaokou Reservoir in the months of past years" and this indicates that the situation of almost discontinuous flow has happened to this river in the previous years.

In respect of present situation of aquatic ecosystem, the reach between Jiaokou reservoir and Tashanyan dam has less ecological water demand. After completion of the project, the Zhougongzhai and Jiaokou reservoirs jointly put into operation have functions of not only ensuring the water supply of 5OO,OOOm3/d to Ningbo city, but also adjusting the let-down flow rate in low flow season. After analysis of monthly let-down flow rate and average let-down flow rate before and after water adjustment under the conditions with different assurance factors, it is concluded that the min. let-down flow rate after adjustment is still 0.88m3/s in the low flow year (assurance factor p=90%). Considering the current situation of ecological protection in our country, the average flow rate of lowest flow months after adjustment under the condition of p=90% should be selected as the minimum ecological water demand, i.e. 0.88m3/s.

The minimum ecological and environmental water demand will be the higher of minimum environmental water demand and minimum ecological water demand, that is 0.88m3!s. Meanixhile, the value is also the minimum let-down flow rate of the reservoir.

When performing the balance calculation of the project, the water consumption of intakes between Jiaokou and Tashanyan reservoirs (i.e., 10000m3/d ) has been taken into account, therefore, the amount of water will flow downward as the compensation water, equivalent to 0.1 lm3/s. Actually, the minimum moth-average let-down flow rate of Jiaokou reservoir should be the sum of above mentioned min. ecological and environmental water demand of 0.88m3/s and intakes' compensation flow rate of 0.1 lm3/s, i.e., 0.99 m3/s. This value is equivalent to 11. I % of yearly average flow rate of 8.9m3/s. Therefore, after completion of this project, the let-down flow rate can meet the ecological and environmental water demand of downstream river course.

9.3.2.4impact on water environment of river course in the lower reaches

Under the two design. conditions and at different distances from Jiaokou Reservoir, the prediction calculation results and evaluation results of the simulated river section water quality shows that:

The water quality of reaches downstream of Jiaokou reservoir is mainly controlled by sewage drainage from Zhangshui town. Under the current situation of sewage drainage,, there are functional areas exceeding class 11 limits. If the total sewage drainage decreases 25%, the water quality of reach between Jiaokou and Tashanyan reservoirs can meet the requirement of class II water.

After completion of the project, current water quality can be maintained basically through joint adjustment of reservoirs and assurance of certain let-down flow rate. If it is intended to make the water quality of functional areas not exceeding the class 11 limit, only one solution is decreasing the total sewage.drainage. 25% decrease of total sewage drainage will make the water quality of reaches downstream of reservoir meet the class 11 limits for functional areas. 25% decrease is equivalent to collection and treatment of current waste water drainage and make it meet the requirements of Grade I discharge standard.

In addition. according to the actual let-down flow rate data dunng 30 years after completion of Jiaokou reservoir, this study report defines the min. environmental flow rate of reach downstream of Jiaokou reservoir is 0.39m3/s which represents the actual flow rate of downstream reach in low flow season of dry year under current status. Based on the water quallty model above mentioned, when 0.39 m3/s is selected as the let-down flow rate of 251 reservoir before completion of the project, under the different conditions of current sewage drainage and 25% decrease (equivalent to discharge up to the standards at sewage drainage outlet of reach), the water quality of reach between Jiaokou and Tashanyan reservoirs has been calculated and forecasted. After comparing the water quality forecasted under the let-down flow rate of 0.39 m3/s before completion of the project with that under the let-down flow rate of 0.88 m3/s after completion of the project, it is observed that the water environment of downstream reach in low flow season will be improved to some extend after completion of the project by the joint adjustment of reservoirs, under the same sewage drainage condition, the water quality class of downstream reach after completion of the project will be the next higher class than that before completion of the project.

9.3.2.5 Impact on aquatic organisms of downstream reach and river beach & wetland

According to the investigation and assessment on the aquatic organism status, comprehensive analysis combined with water diversion operation and dispatch modes shows that Zhangxi riverlet downstream of Jiaokou reservoir after completion of the water diversion project has less water exchange resulting to the decrease of species resources such as bottom fauna and adhesive-egg fish. Because the investigated reach is the mountainous river with short river head and rapid flow, resource of aquatic organism is poor, no valuable and rare aquatic animals and plants, no migration fish and spawning ground for fish, no fish resource with economic value. In addition, most animals are the biological group with short life cycle and early sexual maturity (procreation when one year old), which recoveries rapidly in the extreme environment with damaged resources. Therefore, water diversion of Jiaokou reservoir has less impact on the species resources of aquatic organism of Zhangxi riverlet upstream of Yanjiang river.

In the scope of assessment, the reach (Zhangxi riverlet) upstream of Yanjiang river and Tashanyan dam is the mountainous river with short river head and rapid flow. The flow rate will obviously change along with the season change and water discharge of Jiaokou reservoir. There are riverbanks at both sides of Zhangxi riverlet, which have the bed material of gravel stone and coarse sand. The aquatic organism is poor and no continuous wetland resource. There.is. weed on parts of river beach and wetland, no cultivation yard, bird's habitat and transient's migration post. From the above analysis, it is concluded that the project has less impact on hydrological regime downstream, there is no mainly protected wetland in the assessed region. The project has less impact on the river beach and wetland by ensuring proper let-down flow rate.

9.3.2.6 impacet of water discharge on water environment

Although the tide of main pollution receiving rivers makes pollutants easily diffuse in water, after completion of this project, 16 small water works with 240,000m3/d water catchment quantity will be shut down and the actual additional wastewater quantity of this project will be 187,000m3/d. Furthermore according to the overall urban development planning for Ningbo City, construction of a series of wastewater treatment plants is speeding up while this project is under construction, and Ningbo City's increased wastewater treatment capacity in 2008 will be able to receive the additional water return of this project. Therefore water return will have only small impact on water environment after completion of this project.

9.3.2.7 Impact of water purification plant sludge and wastewater discharge on water environment

(I) Impact caused by sludge from the water purification plant

252 As the sludge produced from water treatment process of Maojiangping Water Purification Plant contains much water, it will undergo anhydration treatment first. Sludge will be delivered to sludge balancing tank and is dewatered by plate frame dewaterer. The dry sludge quantity of Maojiangping Water Purification Plant is 17.8t/d and sludge shed can store sludge for seven days with maximum storage being 124.6t. If the sludge is discarded in a random way, it will become potential pollution sources for surface water and ground water both in the near term and in the long term. However the sludge composition of water purification plant is different from that of wastewater treatment plant that basically contains no poisonous and harmful substances. It is stored in sludge shed and anti-seepage and anti-leakage measures are taken for sludge shed and irrational piling is avoided, thus it has small impact on the environment.

The treated dry sludge is used as backfill or utilized for farmland after stabilization and non-harmful treatment. Due to stabilization and non-harmful treatment, dry sludge will have small impact on soil environmtent. Dry sludge shall be rationally piled and not allowed to cover vegetation, otherwise it will affect ecological environment.

The project plans to dewater the sludge to greatly decrease the output of it. Because the sludge does not contain the toxic and harmful rnatters, resource recycle and comprehensive utilization should be considered firstly when the dewatered sludge is treated. The recycled sludge is intended to be used for producing brick after mixing and hardening procedures and used as muck for pavement of road and filling for farmland. The surplus will be used as covering soil for landfill of refuse. The balance of sludge should be placed properly. The resource utilization of dehydrated sludge is active. The water purification plant should contact with appropriate factories such as local brick and tile factory as early as possible to find out the ways of integrated utilization. For the surplus as covering soil for landfill of refuse, the receiving agreement also should be signed and define the safe and reliable transportation plan to avoid secondary pollution.

(2) Environmental impact caused by waste water from the water purification plant

The waste water from water purification plant mainly consists of backwash water from filter basin and sludge discharging water from settling basin in production process, and the domestic waste water. In which, the production wastewater is 13900m3 /d including the backwash water of 7900 m3/d and process waster water of 6000m3/d from the settling basin, the domestic wastewater is about 30 m3/d.

The main pollutant contained in the production waste water is SS. There is no any other toxic and harmful matter in it. According to the analogy investigation to Ningbo Beilun water treatment plant which has the similar purification treatment processes and its water source is the Hengshan reservoir, the water quality of drainage after sludge discharging treatment contains 70 mg/l SS and 73 mgl COD, the backwash water in the plant is reused as the water source, that means its quality is better than the quality of process waster water after sludge.dewatefing treatment of settling basin. For the domestic waste water, it is planned to adopt the small buried sewage treatment device. Considering the acceptable water treated by the device in winter can not be obtained, the environmental assessment study suggests applying the motor waste water treatment facilities. After the appropriate treatment, the water quality can reach the grade I limits specified in the ((Integrated wastewater discharge standard)'

XGB8978-1996) . the tail water should be reused for greening of mountainous land, the surplus should be conveyed to the river course (Xiaoxigang) outside of plant through the pipeline. Xiaoxigang is a mountainous

253 along river with short river head, rapid flow and sudden change of water level, its flow rate changes obviously with the season change. At ordinary times, the riverlet has lower flow rate even dries up in the summer. However, the flow rate will increase greatly when flood occurs. It has the main functions of flood discharge and irrigation, and is classified to class II function area. Additionally, there is no nearby sensitive point such as the protected drinking water source. The treated water reaching the standard in the project will have less effect on the water can quality of Xiaoxigang riverlet and can not make the water environment of water network worse. it also save complement the irrigation water consumption. However, in order to reduce the drainage of waste water and water resource, it is recommended to reuse the backwash water in the study.

9.3.2.8 Analysis of noise impact of water purification plant on surrounding environment

Noise produced from operation of water purification plant is mainly the noise produced from operation of After various water pumps that are mostly arranged under the ground of structure or in the rooms of buildings. external sound insulation and vibration reduction treatment, the noise attenuates greatly when it transmits to environment. At the moment, noise is below 6OdB(A) and can be reduced for 2OdB(A) after 10 distance plant attenuation, thus it basically has no impact on the external acoustic environment of the water purification of (and sensitive villages near the water purification plant is 200m away from the plant). According to plarr layout plants are water purification plant, in-plant landscaping area is great and various trees, climbing plants and herbal of planted and building ornament is arranged to improve landscaping quality. On the interior of enclosing wall to plant area, shrubs with strong absorption are arranged to form an isolated area. These measures are conducive the reduction of noise impact on surrounding environment.

9.3.2.9 Assessment of environmental risk caused by chlorine and ammonia leakage After The main cause of risks and accidents occurred in the water purification plant is failure of equipments. been search in available data, it is found that almost no chlorine (ammonia) leakage in water purification plant has accidents is reported. That means the water purification equipments is reliable and stable. The additional cause for so the improper operation. However, the water purification plant general employs the automatic dosing devices, water in the improper operation risk also can be avoided. Because of the longer conveyance distance of clean ammonia project, after comparison and demonstration, it is acknowledged that application of chlorine and sterilization is reasonable to ensure the effectiveness of sterilization.

9.3.2.10 Pipeline's affectfon on water quality and

cross The water distribution pipeline in this project is mainly tunnel. The laid steel pipe will be used when will the flat sections. The water quality during the transmission will not be affected because there is no pollutants be solved from the rock of the tunnel.

9.3.2.11 Analysis of impact on Tashan Weir

Tashanyan dam is located across the Zhanxihe river and a hydraulic structure with special value of cultural relic. As a hydraulic structure, the special location and structure make it with the functions of "obstructing seawater and accumulating freshwater, discharging flood and carrying irrigation water". During construction of season this project, any structure of Tashanyan dam should not be changed. However, the water upstream of flood dam becomes less, the duration and flow rate passing Tashanyan dam will decrease, its flood discharging function

254 is weakened. More water from upstream of the dam will be obstructed to access Yanxi region for irrigation. The function of obstructing seawater will not change at all. Therefore, the project will have less effect on Tashanyan's hydraulic functions. According to the water resource verification report of the project, the balance calculation for the water diversion project includes 10000 m3/d water consumption from every intakes between Jiaokou reservoir and Tashanyan dam and water compensation for irrigation of Yanxi plain. The two kinds of water from the reservoir will flow down to the intakes and downstream Yanxi river network through river courses. In addition, in the 1OOkm2 catchment area between Jiaokou reservoir and Tashanyan dam, there are a series of small riverlets flowing into Zhanxihe river, the min. moth-average let-down flow rate in low water year (P=90%) will reach 0.88m3/s. Thus, the project will not have more effect on its landscaping.

9.4 Public precipitation

This public investigation was conducted through local people's government and by using various forms, e.g. issuance of questionnaire, random enquiry, talk, publication (bulletin) etc. to solicit suggestions and opinions from various social circles directly or indirectly related to this project, such as government officials (including NPC, CPPCC), township (village) cadres, enterprise workers, peasants and teachers, and extensively collect record of consultation and opinion exchange, and of public participation, between respective design institute, builder, construction organization and local government during engineering exploration, design and construction.

The final feedback result shows: the public in the assessed region is very concerned about this project and has relatively strong environmental protection consciousness. The responders for this public participation represent different social strata and the result shows that most mass stand up for, approve and support this project construction. As a social public welfare project, this project will play an important role in meeting and promoting Ningbo's economic and social development and extending water supply range, improving the living standard of the residents in urban and rural areas in Ningbo City and improving the safety degree of urban water supply system. It is suggested to compensate the economic loss caused by relocation of residents and land requisition, well carry out pollution prevention and control work in construction period and rationally and effectively utilizing construction capital.

9.5 The feasibility from the angle of environment

the project will meet the requirements for the economical and social. development of Ningbo City and the increasing demand on water supply. It will improve the water supply quality and the living level of the urban and rural area of Ningbo City; improve healthy of residential; enhance safety level of the urban water supply system; effectively utilizes the function and economic benefits of other project; It will helps the sustainable development in economy, society and environmental with its' good economnical benefits, social benefits and enyironmental benefits. A certain adverse effect exists during project construction, for example, some pollution exists in construction period. But these pollution impacts are local and temporary and can be basically brought under control and be mitigated after environmental management is strengthened and appropriate measure is taken.

during the operation period the water quality of lower reach river of reservoir may decline, thus the rational 255 distribution of reservoir water need to be prepared as to minimize this kind of impact. In general the positive effect is major, and negative impact is minor and local. The construction of this project is feasible from the angle of environment.

9.6 Suggestions

( I ) This project can improve supply water quality and safety degree, satisfy, at the same time its operation can reduce the water environmental capacity of upriver, the suggestion is that Yinzhou and Zhangxi region of upriver be retrieved by consider the angle of Regional balance.
