Necessary environmental and engineering preparation and protection of the territory by variants: topographic and geodesic, engineering and geological and other types of exploration are performed to the extent required. Project solutions will provide for the implementation of DBN and sanitation and hygiene standards / regulations, as well as guarding, remediation, and protective measures. Provisions are made for the improvement of adjacent territory. 9. Potential impact of planned facility operations (during construction and operation) on environment and types of impacts on: Climate and microclimate: there are sources impacting on the climate and microclimate. the impact is within the normal range. Geological environment: the impact is present, but due to the measures taken the impact remains within the range of applicable standards. Aerial environment: the impact is present during operation. The project provides for the treatment of polluted air on filters. the impact is insignificant during construction. Concentrations of hazardous substances in the atmosphere both from the designed facilities and during construction works do not exceed standards of maximum allowable concentration (MAC) within the sanitary protection zone (SPZ). Aquatic environment: the impact is present within the range of applicable standards. After all work for the BAS reconstruction has been completed, production lines for sewage water treatment should ensure their biological treatment. Treated water indicators comply with the applicable standards. Soils: the impact is present within the range of applicable standards. Plant and animal life, protected areas: the impact is present as compensated. Social environment: the impact is positive. Anthropogenic environment: project solutions will comply with the construction requirements and regulations. 10. Production waste and possibility of its recirculation, utilization, handling or safe disposal: during the construction works such waste as depleted soil, construction waste is produced. the project provides for the waste collection and disposal immediately after its extraction. Types of waste during operation: contaminants on screens, sand from degritters, raw sludge from primary sedimentation tanks, surplus activate sludge, sediments from silt fields.

In the 1970s, six dams were commissioned, and respective monitoring infrastructure was installed. Riverbanks and valley floors composed of unconsolidated material have much lower bank strengths and are susceptible to fluvial erosion and bank collapse, particularly during the release of high flow volumes from hydropower dams. The regulation of the Dnieper River along a cascade of storage reservoirs caused significant changes in its active river channel and hydrological regime. In order to estimate channel stability downstream of the Kaniv reservoir, we conducted an analysis of the hydraulic conditions in terms of changes in flow velocity and propagation of waves caused by intervention water discharges from the Kaniv Hydroelectric Power Plant (HPP).
