Generally speaking, villages along the line have very low TV popularization, but TV signal has very good coverage with better receiving quality.

3.9 Characteristics of hydrology and geology

Underground water along the line can be divided into hole potential water of the 4th system alluvial layer and base rock fracture water in hilly areas. Hole potential water of the 4th system alluvial layer is mainly sand and egg grvel lay containing water and has bearing pressure nature in local areas. Underground water is supplemented by rainfall Environment Impact Report of Sewly Built Railway of Shijlazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

and river water. The discharge path is mainly evaporation. Burying depth is decreased from north to south. Depth of underground water is 1-20m and in some areas more than 20m. Fluctuation of water levels is 2.0-5.0m. Since underground water is excessively exploited for long, forming underground water falling filter centered on urban towns and water level is decreased year by year. Base rock fracture water in hilly areas is distributed in low mountains and hilly areas with large fluctuation in water quantity.

4 Environment impact assessment and environment protection measures

4.1 Assessment and environment protection measures of eco-environment

4.1.1 Analysis of impact of project land on land use and mitigation measures (1) Analysis of impact of permanent land on land use Permanent land includes land for built roadbeds, bridges and station site, with area

of 1174. 5hm2. See Table 4- 1- 1 for specific quantity and category of the land. Table 4-1-1 Specific quantity and category of the land Unit: hm2 Total land occupied by the line Total area of station yard Administrative division Subtotal r ~armlandl~ardenplotl~orestryl~and for construction Farmland I Shijiazhuang City 175.8 I I 7.1 16.5 199.4 Xingtai City 28 1.6 I I 8.8 25.9 316.4 Handan City 125.3 29.3 6.7 16.0 26.7 204.1 Sum in Hebei Province 579.5 29.3 6.7 3 1.9 69.2 719.9 Anyang City 101.9 I I I 24.5 126.4 Hebi City 76 I I 20.7 23.9 120.6 Xinxiang City 170.9 I I 10.5 26.1 207.6 Sum in Henan Province 348.9 I I 3 1.2 74.5 454.6 Grand total 928.4 29.3 6.7 63.1 143.7 1174.5 Permanent project land, mainly farmland, accounts for 91.5% of all the land requisitioned (about 85% is basic farmland, total farmland covered by the project is about 911.3hrn2), followed by construction land. According to statistics, after deducting construction land, about 3.lhm2 of agriculture land is used per kilometer. The project construction has slight impact on layout of land use along the line. However, to towns and villages, land requisitioned will decrease per capita farmland quantity. 85% of farmland requisitioned by the project is basic agriculture land, accounting for 91 1.3hm2 of total basic agriculture farmland. Table 4-1-2 is average mu yield of farmland in the provinces and cities along the line to estimate reduces yield of grains caused by the railway construction.

Project construction produces certain adverse impact on agriculture production of towns and villages where land is requisitioned for the proj ect. (2) Analysis of impact of temporary project land on land use Main large temporary auxiliary facilities of the project include track laying base, beam manufacture site, beam storage site and mixing stations, etc. Temporary construction site for the project does not cover basic farmland but dry land and unused land. Increased temporary land is 3 30.0hm2. According to construction experience, foundation of beam production and beam storage sites of is large and is difficult to recover after completing the construction. It will produce permanent destruction to the land. Track laying base, sand and stone pile site, grade debris mixing station, improved soil mixing station and ordinary operation foundations are rather shallow and are easy to treat. Improper treatment may produce impact on local vegetation and reduction of farmland and low vegetation coverage. When building construction temporary pavement for the project, set key projects Environment Impact Report of Newly Built Railway of Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

(bridges and roadbeds) and soil digging sites. Temporary construction pavement is 209.6km long, of which is built 61.lkm and used the existing road of 148.5km. Total land for the construction pavement is 170.7hm2. Since most of the project is at plain areas, temporary construction pavement and construction sites malnly cover some dry land, producing certain impact on agricultural production. The project is mainly filled. About 79.802 m3 of soil is required, covering about 540hm2 area. Temporary farmland for the construction will produce impact on local agricultural production, will destroy original surface vegetation and reduce vegetation coverage. (3) Mitigation measures of project land a~ryto choose soil digging site in barren hills and slopes. There are 19 soil digging sites under the project, of which are 14 slow slopes barrens and 5 dry lands. @The temporary project first consider temporary and permanent coverage of land. Try to use existing sites or permanent lands and urban lands in the scope of the station to reduce to cover new land. @construction payment should cover both temporary and permanent lands and seek for use means of combination of entrance road, countryside road and railway maintenance road. Construction payment should be set in combination with agricultural machine cultivation road, try to use original road (use existing road up to 148.5km) to reduce impact of building of temporary road on agriculture operation environment. C Construction machines should drive strictly along the route specified to prevent grinding during construction period and destroying original surface vegetation.

L Before construction of temporary project and soil digging site on farmland, push cultivation soil about 0.3-0.4m thick to one site for temporary piling and cover the surface after the project for recovery of the cultivation. Moreover, there is soil bag fence protection around the temporary piling site. The project is Railway Middle and Long-term Development Plan approved by the Environment Impact Report of Newly Built Railway of Shiiiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

state Council. In the land use plan along the line, the land for the project is reserved as construction land of National key traffic construction project. The permanently requisitioned basic farm land should fulfill the following procedures according to related regulations of Regulations of protection of Basic Farmland. a. Processing agriculture -to-nonagricultural land approval procedures The country carries out basic farmland protection system. According to Article 44 of Land Administration Law of the People's Republic of China and Article 15 of Regulations of protection of Basic Farmland, when construction project site can't avoid basic farmland protection areas and must cover basic farmland, transfer of agriculture land to construction land should be approved by the State Council and process approval procedures of transfer of agricultural land b. Paying cultivated land reclaiming fees According to Article 16 of Regulations of protection of Basic Farmland, for covered basic farmland approved by the State Council, the covering unit should reclaim farmland with the same quantity of covered basic farmland. If the unit has no conditions to reclaim of the reclaimed land fails to meet requirements, the unit should pay cultivated land expenses according to provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the central government for cultivation of new farmland. Considering shortage of backup resources along the line, the constructing unit has difficulty in reclaiming the farmland with equivalent quantity and equivalent quality, it is appropriate to pay cultivated land reclaiming fees. The basic farmland covered by body of roadbed is subject to confirmation in the next stage and payment of reclaiming expenses of cultivated land with equivalent quantity. c. Arrangement of cultivation layer of basic farmland According to Article 16 (2) of Regulations of protection of Basic Farmland, units covering basic farmland should cover soil of basic farmland for cultivation of land and improvement of bad-quality or other cultivated land, When the Environment Impact Report of Newly Built Railway of Shijlazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

construction is started, push cultivated soil of 0.3-0.4m of farmland to one side and coordinate with local government and transport them to an appropriate location. If required, transport the cultivation layer to the soil digging site for piling. Local people's government will cultivate new farmland, or improve bad-quality land and other land. L The employer shall pay land requisition compensation fees, fixture and green seedling compensation expenses and settlement subsidy expenses according to laws, and regulations such as Land Administration Law and Implementation Rules of Land Administration Law. Surplus labor resulted from land requisition shall be settled by local government by developing agricultural by-product production and establishing township enterprises. Coordination by government at different levels according to related policies can partially reduce impact of farmland requisition on agricultural production.

4.1.2 Analysis of impact of project construction on forest and vegetation and mitigation measures (1) Impact analysis The project construction will require cutting forests within the coverage scope, damaging vegetation in the project scope and producing impact on eco-environment in the region. Forests cut under the project include surrounding forests, nurseries and fruit trees, etc. See Table 4-1-3 for quantity of vegetation and trees cut.

The project construction will require cutting forests including surrounding forests,

protection forests, which will reduce vegetation coverage rate and affecting regional eco-environment. Under the project total of 85000 fruit trees are cut with compensation, which has small impact on income of affected residents. The project covers total of 6.7 hectare of protection forest land, mainly the protection forest land on the banks of Zhang River, producing little impact on forest production. (2) Mitigation measures In the railway boundary on the sides of the roadbed, plant bushes and arbors according to height of roadbed and route conditions with three rows on each side. 3002 bushes are planted every one kilometer on each side and 1503 arbors are planted every one kilometer on each side for creation of green passengers and greening environment along the line. To stabilize the slope, roadbed slope with different heights are protected by spraying plants and grasses or cement mortar block arch form with water stop tanks, in which, plants and grasses are sprayed in it for protection of edge slope and Environment Impact Report of Newly Built Railway of Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

beautifying and improving eco-environment. Plant trees, flowers and grasses on the empty land around the house built at the site to green the area and make the environment more beautiful. According to above greening and protection principles, arbors, 292840 arbors and 144,090 bushes and 2166529m2 of grasses will be planted to greatly compensate for destruction to vegetation by the project construction. Vegetation coverage and eco-environment along the line will be recovered and improved gradually with implementation of greening measures. To ensure effective greening measurement, plant trees and grasses that can adapt to

local soil and weather conditions and plant them in appropriate seasons. Plant protection greening on the edge slope should be conducted the main part of the project. Tree-planting greening should be conducted in the appropriate season after completing the main part of the project.

4.1.3 Analysis of impact of railway block (1) Analysis of impact on ferae naturae Animal types in the project scope are frequently-seen species in the north areas. There are no rare endangered animals and no national and local protected ferae naturae. Railway as a strip project, produces barrier on migration and movement of animals. In addition, noises of train running impacts rest and breed of animals near the Environment Impact Report of Newly Built Railway of Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

railway. Since there are fewer ferae naturae in the project scope and no large endangered animals to be protected. Repairing of the project has no threat on living environment and migration structure of farae naturae. In addition, lots of bridges and culverts are built for the project (full length of bridges is 246.17krn, accounting for 69.3% of the line. There is average 1.35 culverts per kilometer of line). They can

be passages for animals passing through railway. (2) Resident traffic and daily cultivation The implementation of the project, roadbed and stations will surely cut the villages and cultivated land and causing inconvenience to traveling and cultivation of villagers. The line is designed with all flyovers. Bridges and culverts are equipped to the line crossing existing roads, planned rods and irrigation channels to provide convenience for daily traffic and cultivation for the residents on the sides of the road

There are more than 280 bridges and culverts dedicated fro daily trafftc and cultivation of residents along the line. (3) Analysis of block impact of the project on surface runoff The railway project may cut original surface runoff, and change surface runoff conditions. If improperly treated, it may cause one-side water choking and reduction of surface runoff on the other side. To eliminate or reduce influence on the surface runoff, the project, according to the site survey, take measures to guarantee smooth of surface runoff by setting bridges or culverts. Bridges and culverts are designed by 11100 frequency. There are total 72 bridges along the line with total length of 246.17km and 48 1 culverts to ensure not to cut existing runoff passenger. For the section failing to form runoff passage and running over the surface, discharge channels are laid on the sides of the line parallel to the railway and then connected to the bridges and culverts near the railway to form overflow passage on the sides to guarantee connection of overflowed surface runoff on the sides of the railway. The discharge channels are set under the following principles: Environment Impact Report of Newly Built Railway of Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

Discharge channels are designed according to local conditions and should be economically appropriate at the sections with better landform and geology. Outlets of the discharge channels is led to natural channels or rivers to avoid water flowing into farmland and villages, damaging and affecting agriculture production and

people's normal living. 4.1.4 Impact of dust at construction site on agricultural crops and plants (1) Analysis of impact on crops and plants Railway construction requires earth and stone digging and filling. Construction in dry seasons will cause lots of dust, covering on nearby crops and forests leaves, affecting their photosynthesis and resulting in yield reduction of crops and fruits. If the construction is proceeding in flower season, fruits generation will be affected to reduce yield. In addition, crops and trees on the sides of construction pavement will be affected by dusts caused by transporting vehicles, covering on flowers, fruits and leaves, especially obvious impact of dust caused by grey or soil transporting vehicles on the sides of the road. Short-term concentration of flying dust on the sides of driving road is up to 8-10mg/m3. Flying dusts are rapidly decreased with increase of distance. The concentration at the point 200m from the downstream wind of the flying dust is approaching the reference point of the upstream direction. (2) Protection measures Owhen transporting building materials producing flying dusts such as sands, soil and ashes, transporting vehicles, should take measures by covering tarpaulins to prevent generation of flying dust. @strengthen management and maintenance of construction road, keep road leveling up. The sand roads should be sprayed with water often to prevent adverse impact of transporting dust on vegetation and crops. @~tthe main roads of construction site, must have mud debris hardening treatment. 7 At the construction site, centrally store soil and stones with covering or hardening measures. 1 Special persons should be arranged at the construction site responsible for Environment Impact Report of Newly Built Railway of Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

cleaning, equipped with water spraying equipment to reduce flying dust pollution. 4.1.5 Analysis of impact on key proejct eco-environemt There are 8 super large bridges crossing the rivers and they are Baimahe Super Large Bridge, Lihe Super Large Bridge, Minghe Super Large Bridge, Zhanghe Super Large Bridge, Super Large Bridge crossing Tanghe, Tangpu Railway and Yongtonghe, Qihe Super Large Bridge and Super Large Bridge crossing Weigon and 10 1 provincial highway and East Mengjiannv Super Large Bridge. There are four Super Large Bridges with water mounds in dry seasons. Impact of river-crossing bridges construction on eco-environment is mainly reflected in block of spoil and residue in rivers and deposit in riverbed, causing increase in concentration of suspended matters in the near water region and accelerate water and soil loss. Slurry produced from basic construction of bridge mounds is discharged into water, possibly blocking river courses and affecting flood discharge. Environment impact and mitigation measures O~ridgesare designed by 11100 flood frequency to meeting flood discharge requirements of the rivers. @~iithe residue from digging for bridges are discarded into the soil digging site under the project design. Cone filling at the bridge head are all protected in the slurry block. O~iithe drilling residues produced from basic hole drilling are transported to low places of the river courses to be shined and finally to the site getting site under the project design. After completing the construction, completely clear out the river course, and remove the remaining soil and residue out of the river and recover original landform of the river.

I There is no drinking water outlet at lOOm of upstream and lOOOm downstream, no impact of bridge construction on downstream of the river. 4.1.6 Analysis of impact of the project on soil digging and spoil sites Environment Impact Report of Newly Built Railway of Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

(I) Profile of soil digging site Most of the project is at alluvial plane area. The project is design with all flyovers. Roadbed and station soil and stone works are large. Total quantity of soil and stone area of the roadbed, station site and bridges under the project is 2838.2~104m3, of which is 1980.2~104m3 of filling. Due to landform conditions of the project, large quantity of soil will be purchased. The project is designed to use centralized soil digging mode. 10 soil sites are proposed with soil of 1995~104m3, which can meet the needs of the project. See Table 4-1 -5 and picture of the site for profile of soil digging proposed under the project.

beings in the soil getting area and plant coverage. Soil getting will disturb original soil layer structure, cause soil loosen and form slope causing water and soil loss. Dig soil in the cultivated areas, remove surface planting soil. After recovery of the land, the soil fertilization is reduced, directly affect planting crops after reclaiming. (11) Analysis of environment reasonableness of soil digging plan Soil digging sites selected for the project can be divided into three categories by land type as follows: (1) Soil digging site of the slow slope and barren 14 of soil digging sites proposed under the project are barren soil getting site and surveyed one by one on the site. There is rare vegetation on the surface and only weeds distributed locally. The project soil covers no cultivated land and good land, produce no harm to forest and plants. Due to slow and flat landform, form a soil getting pit around the pit according to terrain requirements, and cause no water and soil loss. (2) Flat and dry soil digging site Due to few soil resources along the line, there are three flat cultivated lands used as soil digging sites, they are Dongyachi, Yao Village and forest farm soil digging site. Soil digging operation will produce certain impact on local agricultural production. However, soil digging mode is slow digging type and the land can be reclaimed after the project. Therefore, reclaiming land can reduce impact on agriculture. (3) Slow slope and dry soil digging site There are two slope cultivated land sites selected for the project. According to field survey, they are cultivated land generated from slope barrens. The soil fertility is average. Water irrigation facilities are rare. Most of crops planted on it depend on natural rainfall irrigation. The land is low-yield field. Due to slow landform, after digging soil according to related requirements, push back the cultivated soil for cultivation, produce almost no impact on agricultural production. Environment Impact Report of Newly Built Railway of Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

(111) Profile of soil discarding site The project has fewer digging soil on the roadbed, required mainly by Low hill sections from CK331+000-CK361+000, the remaining is discarded soil produced from digging for bridges and station site, being 473.2.2~104m3. Total discarded soil along the line is 532.0~104m3. In the feasibility design, no special soil discarded sites are selected. The assessment will be made according to discarded soil quantity and transporting distance. All the discarded soil will be filled back to the selected soil digging sites nearby. See Table 4-1-6 for list of project discarded soil arrangement. (IV) Analysis of environment reasonableness of soil discarding plan Discarded soil of 532.0x104m3 produced from the project will be filled in the nearby 16 soil digging sites, producing no damage to surface vegetation and no impact on land use. Discarded soil quantity each place is smaller than soil digging quantity, so discarded soil will not higher than the original ground surface, avoiding occurrence of water and soil loss. The soil digging site will be filled back for reclaiming cultivation and produces no impact on reclaiming cultivation. The soil digging sites for planting trees and grasses will be filled back after leveling up, without impact on implementation of Environment Impact Report of Newly Built Railway of Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

recovery measures of soil digging sites. Therefore, the plan of filling back soil digging sites with discarded soil is environmentally reasonable. 4.1.7 Eco-environment protection measures (1) Protection measures on land and basic agriculture land Cut of road moat and bridges and culverts is filled to the roadbed and station site to reduce quantity of earth and discharged earth. Project earth is under unified planning and centrally getting. Earth pit is selected so as to avoid occupation of water irrigation land and vegetable land. The land should be prepared, protected and recovered for cultivation after earth getting. After construction, temporarily used land should be recovered for original functions as soon as possible. For the project that can't be recovered such as construction passenger to the slop earth pit shall be under local management and maintenance and for local residents to cultivate land. (2) Soil and vegetation protection measures Construction vehicles try to use the existing road and strictly drive on the designed construction pavement to avoid grinding of crops and surface vegetation. During construction, should strengthen management, protect crops and vegetation around the construction site. Temporary facilities should be arranged on an overall basis and shall not be built at will. After construction, remove temporary building, clear up sites and recover for cultivation land. When transporting building materials producing flying dusts such as sands, soil and ashes, transporting vehicles, should take measures by covering tarpaulins to prevent generation of flying dust. Strengthen management and maintenance of construction road, keep road leveling up. The sand roads should be sprayed with water often to prevent adverse impact of transporting dust on vegetation and crops. (3) Bridge works protection measures Mud and sediment and spoil produced from drilling and digging of bridges and culverts should be used as road filling. If they can't be used, choose sinkage location for unified piling and protection. During infrastructure foundation of Environment Impact Report of Newly Built Railway of Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

crossing-river bridges where there is water throughout a year, transport mud form digging to the bank and use it after shining. After the construction, salvage and clear earth and enclosure, avoid river block and pollution of water body. (4) Protection measures for farm drainage and irrigation facilities When the line crosses flood discharge channels and agriculture irrigation channels, set appropriate drainage and irrigation bridges and culvert. When the work covers the above facilities, remove and construct projects to avoid impact on the functions of existing facilities. (5) Protection measures for cultural relics In the project assessment scope, there are no cultural relics found. The construction unit should report to local cultural relics management department in time to joint find out solutions if cultural relics are found. (6) Greening measures Plant appropriate arbor, bushes and greensward on sides of the line, around the roadbed slope and stations to create better eco-environment. (7) Protection measures for water and soil loss Road banks and slopes are protected by spraying cement grout arch form skeleton + spaying plants and grasses. Moat slope is protected by net hanging spraying concrete or cernnet mortar protection wall, protection slope or arch form frame + hexagon concrete air core blocks + spraying plants and grasses. Beach land and shore bank: slope protection under the protection elevation uses cement grout masonry protection slope. Main line of passenger dedicated line is set with discharge channels outside the natural protection wall. Exit of the drainage channel is discharged outside the roadbed. Cone slope of the bridges is protected by dry masonry blocks or mortar blocks to avoid river water and flood washing. 4.1.8 Conclusions of environment impact assessment Environment Impact Report of Newly Built Railway of Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

(1) Most of landfonn along the project of Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line is wash plane areas. The landfonn is flat and wide and is urban eco-system and agriculture eco-system centered with human activities. (2) Railway construction will cover permanent land use of 1174.5hm2, of which is 93 1.7hm2 (basic apculture field of 91 1.3 hm2) of cultivated land and 63.lhm2 of construction land. Use of large quantity of cultivated land will produce adverse impact on use layout and agriculture production along the line, and results in reduction of grain yield of 12.862 million kg every year. By taking measures of economic compensation for land creation and recovery, the impact can be alleviated. (3) For the project construction, 171300 trees in the construction scope will be cut, resulting in destruction to vegetation along the line. In the project design, reasonable compensation will be provided for tree cutting. At the same time, arbors, bushes and grasses are planted on the sides of the line and roadbed slop to protect the slopes and beautifying and improving eco-environment. 292840 arbors and 144,090 bushes will be planted to greatly compensate for destruction to vegetation by the project construction. (4) In the design of bridges and culverts, requirements for flood discharge, irrigation, surface runoff, person traveling and animal passages have been taken into account. Bridges and culverts are all designed for water level of 11100, producing slight impact on rivers, flood discharge, flood detention, irrigation and overland runoff and animal passages. (5) Filling for roadbed and station site of the project is 1980.2~104m3, and cutting is

1163 .Ox 104m3 (including bridge foundation cut of 1092.5x 104m3). The project has provided related project protection and greening prevention measures for earth site, roadbed slope, spoil of bridge and culvert foundation, construction site and passage. Fulfillment of these measures will help to reduce impact of earth and rock works on eco-environment and reduce water and soil loss. (6) The project has 19 earth sites which can provide 1995~104m3 of earth and covers Environment Impact Report of Newly Built Railway of Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

earth site of 540hm2 consisted of hills and barren and dry land, producing slight impact on agricultural production and vegetation. There are 16 spoil sites, which are all soil pits produced by the project. Spoil will be treated and recovered with the earth sites. (7) There are no environment-sensitive areas such as natural reservation area, water source protection area and cultural relic reservation units in the assessment scope of the project. In a word, impact of railway on eco-environment is mainly reflected from soil digging and road filling during the construction period. By taking various mitigation and compensation measures, the project will not produce much damage to the local eco-environment. After completing the construction, with protection and greening measures in place, eco-environment along the line will be gradually recovered and improved. 4.2 Forecast and control measures of water and soil loss

(3) Analysis of impact on water and soil loss If no measures are taken for water and soil loss during construction of the project, Total of 181634.4t water and soil is produced from construction period and natural recovery period of the project, 148096.5t of which is caused during the construction period, accounting for 81.5% of total and 33537.9t is caused during the vegetation recovery period. According to division of the project, roadbed slope and soil site is the main loss sources. The loss quantity is 94795.0t and 4665 1.Ot respectively. From point view of time, construction period is the key protection one from water and soil loss during the construction period. From point view of space, main source for increase of water and soil loss during the construction period includes roadbed, station slope erosion, soil erosion from soil digging sites and water and soil loss within the land scope. Key protection points from water and soil loss is roadbed slope and soil digging site.

(4) Control measures on water and soil loss O~rotectionmeasures on embankment slope When the embankment slope is no more than 3m high, lay a layer of double-direction extension soil racks evey 0.6m under the surface of slope foot to the roadbed surface within 3.0 meters horizontally on the sides of the embankment. Edge sope is protected by spraying plant and grass seeds. When the embankment slope is more than 3m high, lay a layer of double-direction extension soil racks evey 0.6m under the surface of slope foot to the roadbed surface within 3.0 meters horizontally on the sides of the embankment and protect the slope with MI0 cement mortar block arch form frame with wate rstop tanks (3~3m),in which plant and grass seeds are sprayed to grow. @protection of moat slope When rock is hard rock, moat slope is stable protected by hanging net and spraying concrete. Set a 0.6m (deep) x0.4m(bottom) echelon side channel and build with MI0 mortar block. Reserve a 2.0m wide platform and a border to grow green bushes or flowers and grasses. Environment Impact Report of Newly Built Railway of Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

Reserve a 2.0m wide platform outside the moat channel of soil or soft rock (rotten hard rock). Generally edge slope is built with MI0 cement mortar block as wall and protection slope or with MI0 cement mortar block arch form frame (distance between main frames is 3.0m and the between branches is 3.0m) as protection slope. Lay hexagon concrete hollow block in the frame to plant plants and trees for protection. @soaking embankment Beach and coastal soaking embankment: protection elevation is designed water level + wave invasion height + back water height + 0.5m. Under the protection elevation, edge slope protection uses cement mortar block for protection. - Waster discharge system on the roadbed surface For the main line of the passenger dedicated line, set double discharge channels outside the natural protection of the embankment. Outlets of the discharge channels are led to outside of the roadbed to prevent from washing out the roadbed. I Bridges project Cone slope of the bridges is protected by dry masonry blocks or mortar blocks to avoid river water and flood washing. J Soil digging (discarding) site According to landform and terrain of the soil digging site, Protection measures for the oil digging (discarding) sites are shown in Table 4-2-4.

4.3.1.2 Control measures of noises and economic and technical analysis during the operation period 1. Suggestions on noise pollution control (1) Source intensity control a~echnicalrequirements for low-noise high-speed trains Key point affecting noises source of expressway railway is the sound level of the train. Table 4-3-6 shows list of noise levels of express railway at abroad. From the table, we know that high-speed train put into operation in different countries produce different noise impacts. At present, main measures taken in controlling noises of high-speed train at abroad include: reduce weight of the trains and lower the gravity center of it; reduce number of electricity accepting bows, and use new single-arm electricity accepting bows and cover of electricity accepting bows, use a wing electricity accepting bow composed of oval column and wing shape electric part in the similar shape to wing of owls, set a small embossing structure on the column; design the streamline and long nose headstock for the train, similar to shape of the headstock of a plane to reduce air resistance and air power noises; set the train hooks in the cover of the headstock. When the trains are separated or connected, the cover of the headstock is automatically opened and closed; the train body uses aluminum alloy welding structure; use high-speed no-shaking pillar bogie supported with source shock absorption and plate brake and wheel anti-slip device; make the trains and the bottom smooth to improve air dynamic performances, etc. Please See Table 4-3-7. By taking above measures, the noise source of the high-speed trains is reduced by 2-12dBA than early period.

Bridge Regularly sand steel rail, grind contact surface of wheel, ballast pad, Structure 5-10 flexible retainer and shock-absorbing base plate noise Therefore, when acquire high-speed trains for Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line, besides excellent mechanical and performance indexes, noises control indexes shall be included in the tendering conditions. When the train runs at 300km/h, the equivalent sound level when the train is passing is no higher than 89dBA at the 1.5m higher than the track at 30m from the center line of the external track of the railway. O~echnicalrequirements for low-noise line conditions For the proposed project, lay a trans-section seamless line once-off to reduce noises of the tracks. In combination with vibration control and prevention, use vibration-reduction no-residue rail structure is used at the sensitive point sections to effectively reduce structure noises.

a~oundbarrier setting The measurement result of noises reduction effect of sound barriers set on the Qin-Shen Passenger Dedicated Line and Jing-Qin Passenger Line by The 3rd Railway Survey & Design Institute shows that sound barriers of no higher than 3 meters under the roadbed by 2m has no obvious effect on noise reduction a the point 60 meters from the center line of the outside tracks (less than 5dBA). However, for aerial bridges and high embankment sections, when the noise receive point is 80 meters from the center line of the outside tracks, 2.5-m high sound absorption barrier has very good noise reduction effect. For the concentrated sensitive building 60 m from the center line of the outside tracks when the roadbed is less than 3m or for the concentrated sensitive building 80 m from the center line of the outside tracks when the roadbed is more than 3m, sound barriers used to reduce noises should be first considered. O~etenninationof increased length at the ends of the sound bamer The increased length at the ends of the sound barrier should be 50m. @selection of sound barrier materials When there are sensitive points at the bridge sections or on the sides of the road, sound absorption barrier should be used. At the roadbed section distributed with sensitive points on only one side of the lien, sound isolation barrier shall be used. @Sound reception point protection For sensitive building scattered or not suitable for sound barrier measures but the equivalent sound level at the daytime and night exceeding standard limit, sound-isolation windows shall be used to meet indoors use functions. (3) Technical and economic comparison of control plans At present, noise pollution control measures taken by railway departments include setting sound barriers, setting greening belts, alteration of functions at the sensitive points and sound isolation protection of buildings, etc. Environment Impact Report of Newly Built Railway of Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

3. Control distance from the construction machines to the construction site boundaries Machines used at the construction sites should try to meet certain control distance and meet requirements for equivalent sound level limits at the boundaries of the construction site. Certain space is required when the equipment operates at different construction stages. When construction machines are operated, there is certain working distance, therefore, noise source intensity is point sound source. Equivalent continuous A sound Level at the forecast point can be calculated with the following formula: -

Noise attenuation formula is as follows: LA=Lo-201g(rA/ro) Where: LA-sound level at the point rAfromthe sound source, dBA Lo- sound level at the point r,, from the sound source, dBA Control distance from the construction machines to the construction site boundaries should be calculated according to actual situations of construction with many machines.

4. Sound environment protection measures If environment noise pollution is produced during the construction, the construction unit should formulate related noise reduction measures according to provisions of Pollution Prevention Law of the People's Republic of China and Noise Limit at the Construction Site and related local requirements. 1. Reasonably arrange construction site so as to try to be far away from sensitive points such as residential areas; reasonably arrange construction machines in the construction site. Construction machines with larger noises should be as far as one side of sensitive point such as residential areas. 2. Reasonably and scientifically arrange construction site, measure or estimate noise in the site according to layout of the site, especially noise on the side of sensitive point. If exceeding standards, effective measures such as adding shock absorbing pad, covering and sound isolation covers should be taken to reduce noise. 3. Reasonably arrange working period. Operation with larger noises should be arranged at daytime. If continuous operation is required by protection process or specially required working during 22 hours to 6 hours next day, the employer and construction Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

unit should submit application to the construction administrative department of the jurisdiction before construction and report to local environment protection

departments and night construction should be conducted after approval. The employer should arrange resident work with construction unit and announce to the residents and units nearby on the construction period. Measures should be taken for constructions and operation at night to minimize construction noises. Strictly control construction noises made by human by formulating management system and noise reduction measures. Prohibit vehicles transporting materials at night ringing at the construction site. Special care should be taken when handling materials to minimize interference with residents. 4. Reasonably plan the construction payment and heavy vehicle driving period, try to avoid passing through villages to reduce impact of transportation noises on residents. 5. Make sufficient propaganda and advocate scientific management and civilized construction. The construction unit should obtain support form local government before construction and post construction announcement and statement to get understanding from local residents. Moreover, strengthen environment protection consciousness education to construction personnel to reduce noise pollution caused by human factors. 6. Strengthen environment management and strictly observe national and local regulations. 7. Strengthen monitoring of environment noises at the construction site during the construction period. Measure noise value according to Noise Measurement Method of Construction Site. The noise value shall not exceed noise discharge standards. The reports provides environment management and monitoring plan in the environment management and monitoring program section. Related unit during the construction should strictly reserve the regulation on monitoring to control the noises of the construction site within the allowed scope and minimize the impact of railway construction on living environment of residents. 4.3.3 Summary of assessment of sound environment forecast Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

In the section from Shijiazhuang to Handan, there are 10 meter high no-sediment bridges, no sheltering and no noise reduction measures. When the noise is controlled within 60dBa at daytime, there should be no noise-sensitive buildings such as residence, schools and hospitals within 390m on the sides of the center line of the railway.

4.4 Forecast and control measures of environment vibration impact 4.4.1 Forecast and control measures of environment impact during the operation period 4.4.1.1 Forecast method Railway vibration is generated mainly from interaction of rails during running, resulting in mechanical vibration. After transmission by air and ground media, vibration transmitted by air becomes noises of the rail in the train noises. The vibration transmitted through roadbed to the ground is reflected in form of environment vibration, becoming another important factor affecting environment quality along the railway. Vibration source intensity is mainly related to rail structure, running speed of the train, axel weight and geological conditions, while expansion and attenuation law of train vibration is affected by geology, landform and terrain, etc and the vibration is reduced with increase of distance. Vibration source intensity and transmission law are affected by many factors. General landform, terrain and geological conditions and some buildings will produce special impact on generation and transmission on vibration. Therefore, generation and Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line transmission of vibration reflects characteristics with different in specific situations. The line passes six regions and cities, including Shijiazhuang, Xingtai City, Handan City, Hebei Province and Anyang City, Hebi City and Zhengzhou City Henan Province. The main layer is alluvial and diluvia plane in front of mountains and Yellow River alluvial. The vibration source intensity and forecast mode of the train under assessment is forecast according to T.J [2006] No 44Guidance Opinion of Vibration Source Value and Control Principle of Environment Impact of Railway Construction. Correction and value of each parameter will be determined according to actual situations of the project and similar monitor data materials. (1) Selection of vibration forecast formula Based on analog survey and analysis and analog monitoring, the vibration forecast is made with experience formula. Train vibration Z level generated from running trains can be expressed with the following formula within the assessment scope. Forecast of environment vibration impact can be made with the following forecast formula:

VLZi=VLzo+dL +dLD +dL +dLG +dLL+dLR+dLh+dLB(dB) . Where: VLZ,-vibration source intensity, max. Z weighted vibration level when a train passes by, in dB; dL-Speed correction, in dB; dlD-Distance correction, in dB; dL-Axle weight correction, in dB; dLrGeology correction, in dB; dL-Lien type correction, in dB; dLk-Rail type correction, in dB; dLh-Bridge height correction, in dB; dLb-Building type correction, in dB. (2) Determination of formula parameters Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

a~arameterof vibration source intensity VL,, The line is a passenger dedicated line. The train runs at over 200khlh at most of the sections. In combination with actual situations of the project, choose to use residuelnon-residue tracks at different sections. See table 4-4-1 for source intensity value 30m from the railway under eth vibration assessment.

Related domestic and foreign study materials show that railway environment vibration decreases with increase of distance. The decreased value is closed related to geology

and landform conditions. Distance correction relation dLD is shown in the following Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

equation.

d dL, = -10klg- do

Where:

do -reference distance;

d ---- distance from the forecast point to centerline of the railway;

k ---- parameters related to geology conditions. The line is at is alluvial and diluvia plane to the east foot of Taihang Mountain, with flat and wide landform. According to geology mapping and survey, the main layer lithology includes the 4thpowder clay, power, new loess, sand soil, debris soil and some soft soil. Section form Gaoyi to Neiqiu and from Weihui are distributed with the 3rd new half rock clay, mud sand clay, grey rock and gravel rock. Urban areas and road are distributed with human piling layers with different thickness. K value of the areas along the line is determined with analogy monitoring test materials near along Beijing-Guangzhou Railway. At 15m, 30m, 60m and 90, arrange monitoring points and get samples to monitor sections and arrangement of monitoring points as shown in Figure 4-4-1.

L Track type correction ~LR According to railway tract type in China and with reference to foreign study results, the correction of track structure of the following three types: Non-residue tracks without isolation pad to Non-residue tracks with isolation pad: dLR=+3dB Non-residue tracks without isolation pad to residue tracks without isolation pad: dL~=+3dB Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

I I Bridge height correction: dLh Correction dLh of height from the ground to bridge track surface on vibration can be calculated with the following formula:

dLh = -0.076(h- 11) Where, h is the height from the ground to the bridge surface, in m. Complex type correction dLB Different buildings have different responses to vibration. At present, buildings are divided into three categories: Category 1 buildings are high building with good foundation and frame structure, and dLe-lOdB; category I1 buildings are medium high buildings with ordinary foundation, masonry structure and dLB=-5dB; and category I11 buildings are one-storey houses or simple temporary buildings with poor foundation and light structure and dLp-3-+2dB. In combination with monitoring results of the existing line, along the railway are all Category 111 buildings so ~LBof buildings along the line is-3dB. In addition, the following factors are taken into account: Vibration value produced from near-track line is 3db bigger than the far track line. Vibration decrease of the aerial bridges and embankment are forecasted with the same law. Impact of vibration produced by different trains varies. Trains run on Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line have two speed grades. In the vibration forecast, forecast will be made for near term and measures will be taken.

4.4.1.3 Forecast of vibration conformity distance For convenience of planning control, provide vibration forecast for different line types and different distances and vibration conformity distance of related section. See Table 4-4-4. From data in Table 4-4-4, vibration of road section of Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line has the largest impact scope, followed by embankment section and the least impact scope by bridge sections. Impact scope of vibration at non-residue line, after taking vibration reduction measures, is greatly reduced. At moat section at diluvia and alluvial planes and at non-residue roadbed, vibration more than lOOmcan meet vibration standards on the sides of the railway trunk. Vibration conformity distance after taking vibration reduction roadbed is about 65m. At embankment line and non-residue roadbed, the vibration outside 70 m can meet vibration standards on the sides of the railway. After using vibration reduction overall roadbed, the distance for vibration meeting standards is about 46m. At bridge sections, the impact is relatively small, vibration outside of only 53m can meet standards. After reducing vibration, the vibration outside of 34m can meet standards.

producing larger impact scope. According to vibration forecast at sensitive points and calculation of standard meeting distance, at the sections of the main line, especially the sections with high speed, vibration at 30m from external track of the line is still higher than 80dB. To reduce vibration impact of the train, the following vibration reduction measures are taken. (1) At all the sensitive points where vibration nearest to the external track of the line exceeds 80dB, measures are taken to reduce vibration by setting vibration reduction roadbed at the non-residue line. Considering vibration transmission law, extension amount of lOOm on the sides of embankment and 50m at bridges sections are reserved for setting vibration reduction roadbed. The length should be no less than 200m at the embankment sections and no less than lOOm at bridges sections. (2) The sensitive points should be removed if the vibrations, after using the vibration reduction roadbed is used, is still higher than the standards at the non-residue line, until indoors vibration meets standards. (3) According to vibration environment requirements, local government at different levels and related departments are suggested to stop building sensitive buildings such as residence, schools and hospitals in the vibration meeting standard scope along Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line as shown in Table 6-5. The land can be used for building industrial commercial buildings with better structure and not sensitive to vibration such as storage, logistics and processing buildings. See Table 4-4-5 for vibration reduction measures taken at sensitive points.

2. Investment estimation of vibration control After taking above control measures on train vibration, meet vibration control principles and reduce vibration impact scope and reduce quantity of affected people. See Table 4-4-6 for investment estimation on vibration control. Total 83 sections of vibration reduction roadbeds are used, about 45690 double meters, with investment estimation of 45.69 million Yuan. About 3 1300m2 of houses should be removed to meet vibration standards and requires investment of 15.65 million Yuan. Investment in vibration reduction roadbeds and removal measures to reduce indoors vibration is 6 1.34 million Yuan. Under the assessment., investment in indoors vibration in control room is included in the investment estimation. For further improvement to meet outdoors vibration standards, 63100m2 of houses should be removed and requires 3 1.55 million Yuan. Plus vibration in vibration reduction roadbeds, the total investment is 77.24 million Yuan. Compared with investment in indoors vibration reduction measures, removed area are increased by 3 1800 m2 and investment is increased by 15.90 million Yuan. In the design of the project, vibration reduction roadbeds are considered installing at some sensitive points and investment of 51.05 million Yuan is planed for vibration reduction roadbeds. See Table 4-4-7 for investment estimation of design and environment assessment. The investment in vibration control in environment assessment is increased by 10.19 million Yuan than the original design.

4.4.2Analysis and control measures on environment vibration impact during the construction period 1. Analysis of vibration pollution source during the construction period Project construction method and main contents include earth and stone works with mechanical construction; bridges and culverts works includes the large or small bridges and culverts and aerial bridges along the line, including production and laying of stake foundation, bridge mounds and beams as well as roadbed construction and track laying, etc. Vibration pollution sources are operation of construction machines and equipment, mainly including pile drivers, drilling, compacting, tamping and operation of heavy vehicles, such as large excavators, air compressors, drillers, pile drivers and vibration tamping machines and beam laying and transportation, etc. Since most of the station works are completed in the stations, related vibration sources are foundation, structure and decoration operation of the stations and related facilities. Since the line passes no urban areas, the key control focuses on civil construction sections near to rural residents with strong vibration constructions. 2.Vibration intensity of construction machnes and equipment Table 4-4-8 lists vibration values of construction machines. Among the construction machines, the pile drivers produce the largest vibration intensity. Vibration produced by the construction machines decreases with increase in distance. Except strong vibration machines, other machines and equipment produce vibration within 25-30m, where environment vibration standards can be meet to the "mixing areas".

3. Countermeasure against construction vibration To minimize vibration impact produced during the construction period of the project, effective control measures should be taken. (1) Reasonable arrangement of the construction site. Scientific arrangement of construction sites is an important means to reduce construction vibration. Appropriately consider relationship between site arrangement and environment while guarantee construction and operation first. Choose location with lower environment requirements as fixed production and operation sites. For example, beam production site should be chosen to avoid sensitive areas (points) such as residence, schools and hospitals, etc. Construction vehicles, especially heavy transporting vehicles, should avoid passing vibration sensitive areas; Try to locate construction equipment producing vibration more than 30m &om the vibration sensitive areas to avoid affecting surrounding environment. When constructing at sensitive areas near residences, prohibit using strong-vibration machnes such as pile drillers and tamping road rollers. (2) Scientific management, wide propaganda and civilized construction While guaranteeing construction schedule, reasonably arrange construction time and advocate scientific management. Limited by techmcal conditions and objective environment limit at the construction site, despite of control measures and countermeasures, construction vibration may produce certain impact on surrounding environment. Therefore, make affected residents and units along the line well informed to increase their bearing force of adverse impact. Strengthen environment protection consciousness of construction personnel, advocate consciousness of civilized construction and try to reduce construction vibration caused by human factors. (3) To effectively control impact of construction vibration on urban environment, besides fulfilling related control measures, must strengthen environment management. Construction unit should actively accept supervision and management Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

of environment protection departments, etc. according to related national laws and regulation and those of local cities and regions in Hebei Province and Henan Province. 4.4.3 Conclusions of expected assessment of environment vibration 4.4.3.1 Expected assessment conclusions 1. Average speed in the entrance and exit station sections in the passenger dedicated line during operation period is relatively high and only some trains will stop in the station to avoid high grade trains. Expected vibration value is high. Most of outdoors ground Z vibration grades 30 meters from external tract from road bank and bridges and section can't meet standards of 80dB. 2. Evaluation of outdoors ground Z vibration grades 30 meters from external tract from road bank and bridges and section is as high as 84.5-86.5dB. Internal and external vibration of the buildings can't meet standards. 3. Schools and nursery schools on the sides of the line are far from the line. Indoors and outdoors noises can meet 80dB standards. Outdoor vibration of No. 60 Zhangzhuang Primary School (35m) and No. 11 1 Shizhai No. 1 Middle School (1 8m) exceeds 80dB. 4. Points more than 80 meters from the roadbed and non-residue roadbed along the flood plainlflushing plain of Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line can meet vibration standards on the sides of the railway trunk. After using vibration reduction roadbed, the vibration standard distance is about 51m. 60 meters from the bridge impact scope can meet standards, after vibration reduction, distance of 38 meters can meet standards. Taking damping role of the buildings, vibration 33 meters from road banks and 24 meters from bridges lines after vibration reduction measures can be lower than 80dB. 4.4.3.2 Vibration control measures At all the sensitive points where vibration nearest to the external track of the line exceeds 80dB, measures are taken to reduce vibration by setting vibration reduction roadbed at the non-residue line. After using vibration reduction roadbeds, vibration is still higher than the standards on the sides of the railways, the sensitive buildings shall Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

be removed. Removal scope and investment estimation is given about indoors vibration meeting standards and outdoors vibration meeting standards. Total 83 sections of vibration reduction roadbeds are used, about 45690 double meters, with investment estimation of 45.69 million Yuan. About 3 1300m2 of houses should be removed to meet vibration standards and requires investment of 15.65 million Yuan. Investment in vibration reduction roadbeds and removal measures to reduce indoors vibration is 61.34 million Yuan. In the design, investment in track vibration reduction is 51.5 million Yuan, increased by 10.19 million Yuan than the designed one. 4.4.3.3 Vibration assessment during the construction period Equipment during the construction period will produce certain vibration impact, which can be effectively control by reasonably arranging the construction site, scientifically managing and making propaganda and civilized construction and reasonably arranging construction and operation hours. After completing the construction, construction vibration will disappear.

4.5.2 Analysis and control measurement of water environment impact during construction period 4.5.2.1 Analysis of water environment impact during construction period Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

1. Impact of production wastewater from bridge construction on water quality The line is at Haihe River. Water system is developed along the line, especially Haihe River. Main rivers along the line include Jiao River, Di River, Sha River, Ming River, and Zhizhang River and Zhang River, Anyang River, Hong kver, Qiang River, Yongtong River, Tang River, Qi River, and Mengliangnv River, etc in Zhizhang River system. See Table 4-5-7 for super large bridges of main rivers along the line and related parameters.

Impact of foundation Environment Imuact Report of Newlv built Railwav of Shiiiaszhuang-Zhenahou Passenger Dedicated Line construction on water environment are mainly reflected in mud, mortar from bridge mound foundation digging and drilling and leakage, dripping and oil from construction machines, which produces impact on quality of surface water. The mud mainly includes sands, rock debris, cement and polymeric additives and is directly discharged into water bodies, which will form block at the entrance, damaging riverbed, blocking rivers and increasing cloudiness of water in some part of the water body. Bridge construction should be made in low water season, which produces no impact on river water. If failing to do this due to schedule reason, grass bags should used to form dam for bridge foundation construction. When building dams and removing dams in the early and later period of construction, some mud will fall into rivers and suspended matter content of the river will be increased instantly, producing certain influence in water quality in short period. With river flowing and sands deposited, the building dams and removing dams will not produce much impact on water quality. When drilling for stake during bridge foundation construction, mud and debris produced from the construction, if discharged into river, will cause pollution to water quality. The longer the construction period for drilling, the larger impact on water quality of the river. 2. Impact of wastewater of construction camp on environment. (1) Construction camp on the line sectlons should be in the local villages or town near the construction site and with convenient traffic and sufficient water and power supply. Since construction personnel has simple residence and living, living wastewater has small discharge, including washing and dinning hall cleaning wastewater. Washlng wastewater is poured on ground, producing no obvious impact on local water environment. According experiences, there are about 200 construction persons on the construction camp. Assuming living water is 25Vd, discharge of living wastewater is 60% of total water consumption. Discharge of living wastewater of construction person is 3m3/d. (2) Improper treatment of oil-content wastewater discharged from construction machine maintenance station will produce certain impact on the environment. Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

4.5.2.2 Water environment protective measures during construction period (I) Foundation construction of bridges crossing rivers shall be made in low water period, especially water mound lower than the regular water level, to avoid impact of mud and machine oil caused by construction in rainy season on water quality. (2) Due to scattered construction camp and small quantity of discharged living sewage, it is difficult to centrally process the living wastewater produced by construction workers. Therefore, it is suggested building dry toilet at camp of construction personnel in rural areas to collect excrement and urine as agriculture fertilizer. The dry toilet should be managed strictly and cleaned regularly, especially in rainy reason, to prevent from flowing with rains and polluting water environment nearby. Other living wastewater is discharged into low barren or channels and will not produce much impact on the environment. At construction camps, try to use the nearby drainage pipes of the existing houses and connection pipes with them. (3) At construction points with large quantity of oil-wastewater discharged, set small oil isolation and collection tanks. Oil wastewater, after treatment, can be discharge. (4) Construction camps and materials site for bridges crossing rivers should be a litter far from the banks of rivers to prevent from polluting water. The protection distance should be about 20-30m to ensure living wastewater produced by construction personnel and production wastewater containing oil produced from maintenance of construction machines not to be discharged into rivers. (5) When building materials containing harmfbl substances piled in the materials site, such as bitumen and cement, they should be covered and protected with fence if necessary, to prevent from flowing in water with rain. (6) Maintenance sites of the construction machnes should have hardened ground and dry tanks to prevent maintenance and cleaning wastewater pollution water and soil. Strengthen maintenance of construction machines, strictly manage construction and avoid oil leaking, dripping and overflowing from construction machines. (7) Construction site in urban areas must have hardened ground. Do not directly discharge wastewater containing many sands into urban sewage pipes. The Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

wastewater should be discharged after being treated in the rain discharge channels and deposit tanks at the construction. (8) Mud residues and slurry dug from bridge construction should be deposited in deposit tanks and dried naturally. After the construction, fill up the slurry pits and deposit tanks and recover surface vegetation. 4.5.3 Summary of assessment of water environment assessment 1. New Handan, New Hebi and New Xinxiang After implementation of the project, increased wastewater in new Handan Station, New Hebi and New Xinxiang is all domestic wastewater, which is discharged into existing pipelines and then to municipal discharge system and finally to municipal wastewater treatment plant after treatment in the septic tank. Each index can meet Grade I11 standards of Wastewater Comprehensive Discharge Standards (GB8978-1996). Process technology for design is feasible. 2. New Gaoyi, New Xingtaii and New Anyang (1) Wastewater from New Gaoyi Station, after oxidation treatment, is discharged into nearby main channels. The outgoing water quality meets Grade I1 standards of Wastewater Comprehensive Discharge Standards (GB8978-1996). Process technology for design is feasible. (2) Wastewater from New Xingtai Station, after oxidation treatment, is discharged into nearby Niuwei fiver. The outgoing water quality meets Grade I1 standards of Wastewater Comprehensive Discharge Standards (GB8978-1996). Process technology for design is feasible. (3) Wastewater from New Anyang Station, after oxidation treatment, is discharged into nearby Chapodian Channel. The outgoing water quality meets Grade I1 standards of Wastewater Comprehensive Discharge Standards (GB8978-1996). Process technology for design is feasible. 3. During construction of bridges crossing rivers, take protective measures addressing different foundation forms to minimize impact on pollution to water quality of rivers. Construction of water mounds for super large bridges crossing rivers should be made in Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

low water period. 4. During construction of the project, strictly manage construction machines, strengthen environment protection consciousness, and observe requirements of local environment protection departments, producing no impact on water environment surrounding. After completing the construction, the impact will be naturally vanished with completion of the construction.

4.6 Analysis of air environment impact and preventive measures 4.6.1 Analysis of air environment impact and preventive measures during the operation 4.6.1.1 Overview The project is electric traction. New Gaoyi, New Xingtai, New Handan, New Anyang, New Hebi and New Xinxiang are heated with terrestrial heat. Maintenance regions in New Gaoyi, New Handan, New Hebi and New Xinxiang are heated by oil boiler, The main air pollutant source is the above oil boiler and the main pollutants are soot, SO2 and NOX.

Impact of living boiler on air environment during the construction period During the construction period, to solve daily production and living problems of construction personnel, equip temporary small boilers at the construction camp. Fume discharged from boilers during heating water and cooking will cause certain impact on Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line environment in the construction camp scope. 2. Impact of dust produced from soil and stone work on the environment (1) In the construction site and on the sides of the construction road, construction machines and transporting vehicles powered by fuel discharge certain amount of waste gas to increase total quantity of discharged waste gas in the area and pollution caused by discharge will last long along with the whole project. This kind of pollutant sources is difficult to take substantial measures. However, due to small discharge quantity, the impact scope is only limited to local areas of construction machlnes and construction road. The impact to environment capacity is rather weak. (2) Dust pollution from the preparation stage of construction to the acceptance and delivery of the project, is the main pollution source during the construction period. Since surface vegetation is destroyed during the construction period, the soil is exposed, water evaporates and dry granules are formed resulting in loosened ground surface. Flying dust may be caused when the wind is strong or filling back. Some of dusts are suspended in air and the other fall on ground, vegetation and building nearby with wind. Dust pollution during the construction produce great harm. Suspended dusts may be absorbed by construction personnel and surrounding residents, causing not only various respiratory diseases but also infecting various diseases with lots of pathogenic bacteria in the dust, seriously affecting health of construction personnel and surrounding residents. Flying dust decreases visibility and may cause traffic accidents. Falling of dust on leaves of crops and trees will affect the normal growth. Flying dust on the construction site, after rough estimation, will increase TSP content by 0.3-0.8mg/m3, in the scope of 20-50m from the construction site since the site is exposed to the mud during the construction period. (3) Secondary dust caused by transporting vehicles last the longest and deteriorate impact with damage of road at the construction site and mud exposure. When the speed and weight of vehicles remain unchanged, dust quantity will completely depend on accumulation of road surface. The larger the dust accumulation, the more Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

serious the secondary dust is. After study and test, when the weather is continuously dry and the road is in bad conditions, concentration of dusts caused by vehicle can reach 8-100mglm3 at the sides of the roads, greatly exceed the air quality standards. However, concentration of dusts will rapidly decrease with increase of distance. The place 200m downward of the wind is not affected. (4) Waste gas produced from cooking or heating water at construction camp when coal or oil is used as fuel produces certain pollution on the air pollution. However, due to good dispersion conditions in rural areas and short construction period, the impact is light. 3. Prevention and control measures (1) Strictly observe regulations on environment protection and construction issued by the administration region where the project is and take preventive measures for control of dusts and air pollution caused by the construction. a. Set fence around the construction site. If fence can't be set in special circumstances due to infrastructure project, set safety warning marks and take separation measures at strategic places of the project. b. Main roads at the construction sites should be hardened. c. Soil at the construction site should be stored centrally and should be covered or solidified. d. Special persons should be arranged at the construction site responsible for cleaning, equipped with water spraying equipment to reduce flying dust pollution e. Office area and living area at the construction site should be greened and beautified Hot water boilers and cooking boilers should use cleaner fuel f. When cleaning construction waste, must set up seal special rubbish passage or containers for transportation and prohibit throwing at random. At the construction site, should set sealed waste stations for storage of construction waste. Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

(2) Conduct reasonable management on the construction site and pile sands and stone in the specified places. Cement should be stored in a special storehouse. Try to minimize handing and transporting. Special care should be taken during handling to prevent from bursting of the bags. (3) Establish water cleaning system at the construction and removal site, appoint special persons for spraying and cleaning. At the construction, harden the site. Once being dried, should spray water to keep wet and organize force to clean the mud on the construction site and road. (4) Railway employer should arrange transportation according to regulations on construction pavement designed. Construction pavement should be mud debris road. Trucks transporting building materials should be been overloaded. If required, dedicated seal device or other dust prevention facilities should be used. During construction in urban section, set a tire cleaning tanks at the exit of the construction site. After cleaning the tires, the vehicles can be driven away. (5) Rubbish storage points should be set at the construction site. Temporary piling site, and site of bulk building materials should be compacted and covered and project rubbish and spoil should be cleaned. (6) Enclosure of the removal and construction site should be complete and perfect to reduce construction flying dust scope. Concrete should be mixed in the shed. When being mixed, spraying and dust reduction measures should be taken to reduce dust pollution. (7) Strengthen maintenance of construction machines and vehicles, regularly inspect and monitor waste gas discharged from construction machines and transporting vehicles. Do not use bad-quality oil, strengthen maintenance and service of machines to fully bum the fuels and reduce waste gas discharge. In a word, impact on air environment during the construction period is provisional and will gradually vanish after completion of the construction. In addition, the pollution sources are scattered within more than 300km along the line with progress of the construction, and the air environment capacity is large, the impact on air Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

environment during the construction period will be minimized by taking series of environment protection measures. 4.6.3 Conclusions and suggestions on air environment impact assessment 1. New Gaoyi, New Xingtai, New Handan, New Anyang, New Hebi and New Xinxiang are heated with terrestrial heat, producing no adverse impact to the air environment. Maintenance regions in New Gaoyi, New Handan, New Hebi and New Xinxiang are heated by oil boiler. Soot, concentration of SOz and NOx, after measurement, can meet standards of Category I1 Section I1 of GB 13271-200 1 Discharge Standards of Boiler Air Pollutants. 2. During construction of the project, fume produced from construction machines, dusts from earth construction and transportation vehicles and fumes discharged from temporary small boilers for hot water and cooking at the construction site produce certain impact on air environment. However, after taking measures, adverse impact can be controlled. The construction unit should strictly observe related laws and regulations to minimize the impact. The impact will be naturally vanished with completion of the construction. 3. Along the line, terrestrial heat pump should be used for heating. Only 4 maintenance regions are set fuel boiler for heating. To meet environment protection requirements, heating facilities along the line should be unified for convenient management. It is recommended that oil-fuel boiler in the maintenance areas in New Gaoyi, New Handan, New Hebi and New Xinxiang should be changed into terrestrial heating pumps.

4.7 Assessment of electromagnetic impact and suggested measures 4.7.1 Characteristics of electromagnetic pollution sources 4.7.1.1 Electromagnetic radiation produced by operation of electric locomotives 1. Comparison of technical conditions of contact network Electromagnetic radiation produced by operation of electric locomotives is closely related to quality of contact network. To forecast electromagnetic radiation of Shijiazhaung- Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line after putting into operation, the technical conditions along the line and the contact network where electromagnetic 1:

Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

radiation is measured should be compared and analyzed. According to design materials of Shljiazhaung- Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line, wire of contact network along the line is recommended using magnesium-copper (or tin-copper alloy). And the stress of contact stress is greater than 25000N and is hung in full compensation chain mode. The designed target speed is 350Wh. TO this end, after completion of Shijiazhaung- Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line, source intensity of electromagnetic radiation produced by the motors can be forecast according to the actual measurement data of electromagnetic radiation of the test sections from Shanhaiguan to Suizhong of Qin-Shen Passenger Dedicated Line (high-speed test in 2002, magnesium cooper wire) and study result (silver-copper contact wire) of topic Determination of Electromagnetic Radiation Source Intensity of High-speed Railway in "Assessment of Environment Impact of Beijing-Shanghai High-speed Railway". 2. Characteristics of electromagnetic radiation with alteration of speed Figure 4-7-1 shows curve of 15OMHz electromagnetic radiation receiving electricity level on the high-speed line (silver-copper contact wire, stress is 20000N) with alteration of speed calculated from Determination of Electromagnetic Radiation Source Intensity of High-speed Railway. For convenience to compare, make the forecast curve of silver-copper contact wire and measurement curve of ordinary speed in the same figure. From the figure, we know electromagnetic radiation at the speed of 200-

220km/h is almost same as that at the ordinary line (50 - 60Wh). Measurement result of wireless electric interference of Magnesium-copper wire at Qin-Shen railway (stress is 15000N) is 5dB larger than the forecast curve of silver-copper vies (stress is 20000N) in the Figure 4-7-2. According to law of reduction of electromagnetic radiation with increase in stress, when the stress is increased to 1.5-1.8 times, the electromagnetic radiation is decreased by about 8dB on an average level. It can be forecast that interference produced when stress of magnesium-copper wire is 25000N, is 8 dB lower than when the stress is 15000N at Qin-Shen railway and about 3dB lower than when stress of the silver-copper wire is 2000N. Further, from relations of Silver-copper 2000N and railway interference of ordinary speed, forecast Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shiiiaszhuana-Zhenmhou Passenger Dedicated Line

curve of electromagnetic radiation Shijiazhaung- Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line with change of speed can be known. See Figure 4-7-1.

traction transformer stations. Six 220kV traction transformer stations are built, including New Gaoyi. Impact of working frequency magnetic field and working frequency electric filed produced by the traction transformer stations on health of people should be taken into account. Analysis of analog impact can be made with monitoring data of the same kind of traction transformer stations. 1. Analog conditions Voltage into the traction transformer station monitored is 220kV and the voltage out of them is 27.5kV. There are two main transformers. The basic conditions are the same as the newly built Shijiazhaung- Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line. 2. Analog monitoring contents The working frequency electric filed meter is used to monitor the working frequency electric filed. Gaussmeter is used to monitor working frequency magnetic filed. The measuring instruments and measuring methods both meet international standards and industrial standards. 3.

That 200 from the enclosure is about 200V/m, far lower than 4kV/m, the recommended value of working frequency electric filed in HJlT24-1998. Therefore working frequency electric filed produced by the traction transformer stations will not produce harmful impact on nearby residents. 4.7.1.3 Block and reflection of TV signals by aerial railway The design speed for Shijiazhaung- Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line is very high. Miles of aerial lines accounts large proportion. After the line is put into operation, the aerial bridges (aerial roadbed) will produce much greater impact on the impact of wireless TV signal by blocking and reflecting than ordinary railways and has greater impact scope. This becomes an unavoidable problem in assessment of electromagnetic environment impact. When the railway is right between TV transmission stations and TV users, receiving of TV signals may be affected by block of aerial objects and train bodies. When TV users and TV transmission station is at the same side of the railway, receiving of TV signals Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line may be affected by reflection of aerial objects and train bodies. 1. Block impact (1) Theoretical analysis model During electric wave transmission of wireless communication, impact of various landforms may be encountered. Different landforms produce different impact on decrease of electric waves. Therefore, people established appropriate analysis models for different landforms and objects on the ground according to theoretical calculation and lots of measurement data. Figure 4-7-5 is the hill and upland model.

R

Figure 4-7-5 Sectional view of mountainous and hilly area d,d, In figure 4-7-5, Hb is rising height of earth, Hb = 2R , considering impact of

standard air refraction, earth equivalent radius R is 4R013, R0 is radius of the earth.

Hc is transmission clearance, distance between the highest point of the hill and the line between signal transmitting and receiving points. Hs is height of the hill, T is transmission antenna, R is receiving antenna. Assume electric field intensity actually received at R point is E, EIEO can be used to reflect attenuation impact of the landform. EO is the transmission field intensity in the free space, EIEO is attenuation factor, expressed in V, i.e. E=V Eo. Usually, V is between 0-1. When direct wave encounters ridges of wedge-shaped mountain, the model of wedge-shaped mountain peak can be used to calculate transmission attenuation. Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

Figure 4-7-6 Model of wedge-shaped mountain peak Characteristics of wedge-shaped mountain is steep wedges on the mountain and the peak is in shape of edges of a knife. The reason fore introduction the model is that block impact of aerial bridges (aerial roadbed) on electric wave is similar to wedge-shaped mountain. Aerial railway is high (relative to wavelength of TV signals) and the slope of the aerial bridges is steep, so we choose the model of wedge-shaped mountain to analyze the block impact of aerial bridges (aerial roadbed) on TV signals. When calculating attenuation impact of the wedge-shaped mountain peak, first should know transmission clearance, which is distance from the highest point of the mountain and the line between the signal transmission and receiving points. From the geometric relation in Figure 4-7-5, we know: H, =h, +(h,-h,)d,l(d, +d,)-Hb -H,

When sight is blocked, Hc is negative as shown in Figure 4-7-5. When sight is not

blocked, Hc is positive as shown in Figure 4-7-6. Figure 4-7-7 is diffraction loss figure of wedge-shaped mountain. We can calculate attenuation factor VO. vertical coordinate in the figure is dBs, V, and the horizontal coordinate is ratio of

Figure 4-7-7 Figure of diffraction loss of wedge-shaped mountain peak (2) Block attenuation when trains passes the aerial bridges When calculating block impact of aerial bridges with wedge-shaped mountain, first calculate height of the tract surface on the bridge (height of the top of the train when passing) and attenuation value of the wedge-shaped mountain (buildings without clearance), deducting attenuation value of the wedge-shaped body of the bridge mound, the result can approximately represents attenuation value of the bridge. Thus, the large mountain body in wedge-shaped mountain model replaces impact of the relatively thin aerial railway bridge on electric wave transmission and bridge mound role is ignored, so the calculation result is slightly larger than the actual one. However, the result can well reflect relation between different frequencies, distance and different antenna height. If the calculation result is corrected according to the measured data to make it approach the actual impact, the result can be the basis of forecast of block impact. To make the calculation result to be used in most of cases, the ordinary situation is considered. Assuming the transmission antenna height is 100 meters and distance from the TV user to the aerial bridge is 10krn. Elevation of the bridge on the railway is 9m, the bridge mound is 6 meters high and the train body is 3.5meters high. 184.25MHz of Channel 8 is chosen as typical frequency of V band and 623.25 MHz of Channel 27 is chosen as typical frequency of U band. Curve of attenuation value of TV signals at different distances and different bands and

21 1 Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

relative height difference between the receiving antenna and the track surface is reached. The result can be applicable to attenuation caused by bridges or roadbed at different heights. Figure 4-7-8 and Figure 4-7-9 is the calculation curve after correction. The curve well matches with the measurement results.

Appropriately rise or lower the height of the antenna, the block impact can be obviously reduced.

When TV users is near the side where the railway is near the TV station, double images or other distortion may be caused to TV receiving signals due to reflection of TV signals from the aerial bridges and the passing trains. This is the result of interference formed by reflected electric wave and direct wave as shown in Figure 4-7-12.

Figure 4-7-12 Schematic diagram of reflection impact Straight line 1 in the figure represents direct wave and fraction line 2 represents reflection wave caused by aerial bridges, reflection wave causes phase wave A$l, at the reflection point due to reflection, and reflection wave has a phase difference Ah with the direct wave due to additional patch. Due to occurrence of and Ah, double images of TV receiving signal is resulted in and is expressed with the following formula.

If Signal of direct wave reaching the receiving point: = Al (') ' + ') The refection signal can be expressed with:

Y2 = A, (t) . sin(w(t, + At) + 8 + A#,) = A, (t) . sin(wtl + 8 + A4, + A4,)

Where, and is amplitude of the signal. From the formula, we can see 4 is resulted from additional distance the reflection wave travels (or distance). When hgh-speed train passes, there is large clearance at the joints of compartments due to metal body of the train and concave surfaces. More importantly, the train is running at very high speed, and the environment for electric wave transmitting is changing. Due to above reasons, multiple interferences is more serious, which is reflected by shaking of TV images and bad watching effect. Env~ronmentImpact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijlaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated L~ne

According to measurement data, reflection impact is reflected with increase of TV signal amplitude. The increased degree is half of the block impact at the same distance from the railway. 3. Relations of block and reflection impact on TV SNR When a train passes, block and reflection impact is mainly reflected by increase of TV signal amplitude. The increase is usually is negative when being blocked, and positive when being reflected. Since the increase is in sharp fluctuation, the phase and fluctuation are of great randomness. It can be deemed superposition of radio noise to the stable TV signals. The increase and the original TV signals are of great mutual interference and produces great influence on the feeling of the TV watchers. After analysis of the block and reflection increase in the site measurement and analysis of TV image quality displayed, the increase is related to subjective assessment on the image and receiving SNR. Subjective assessment is made with image destruction system Grade V rating standards recommended by CCIR: 5 points-can't be detected; 4 points-can be detected but not tiresome; 3-slighlty tiresome; 2 points-troubled; 1 very tiresome. Generally use practical limits: 3 points or more are normal TV signal receiving conditions. According to study conclusion on influence of electric railway on TV, when SNR (Dm) value is greater than 35dJ3, TV image at 3 points or more can reach normal watch degree. See Table 4-7-1 for relation of block and reflection impact and subjective assessment points and TV receiving SNR. Figure 4-7-1 3 gives curve of relation between the increase of TV signal block and reflection amplitude and equivalent SNR.

Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

The above table can be summarized as follows: Among 12 monitoring points along the line, and among 102 TV channels received with antennas, total of 92 channels have 35db noise-signal ratio required by normal reception. After the project, the remaining59 channels can meet SNR requirements, accounting for 64% before the project. From the table 4-7-2, each sensitive point is seriously affected by interference, resulting in great drop in SNR. 2. Forecast of comprehensive impact of electromagnetic radiation and block reflection Because the speed on the passenger dedicated line is high and there are more aerial bridges and roadbeds, besides electromagnetic radiation, radio signal channels are seriously destroyed due to rapid movement of the aerial trains and reflection and block impact of trains and bridges, causing rapid drop of receiving signals and seriously affective normal receiving to TV signals. According to analysis method of block and reflection impact introduced above, we calculate comprehensive electromagnetic impact on TV signal receiving along the line by taking the block and reflection impact into account. The analysis results are shown in the table below. Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

According to above analysis, after the project is put into operation, SNR at different channels is reduced greatly and number of channels with SNR greater than 35dB is greatly decreased and signal receiving quality is dramatically dropped. Generally speaking, the project of Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line produces great impact on TV signal receiving to residents along the line. 4.7.2.2 Forecast of impact of traction transformer stations Six 220kV traction transformer stations are built. According to above analog analysis, the forecast analysis is summarized as follows: 1. Working frequency magnetic filed at the enclosure of the traction transformer stations is slightly greater than 0.2pT; the intensity of working frequency magnetic filed 20 m from the enclosure of the traction transformer stations should be no greater than 0. IpT, far smaller than the recommended value, 0.1mT in HJlT24- 1998. Therefore, working frequency magnetic filed produced by the 220kV traction transformer stations will not produce hadlimpact on nearby residents. 2. At enclosure of the traction transformer station, the intensity of working frequency electric filed is no higher than 300Vlm. That 200 from the enclosure is about 200V/m, far lower than 4kV/m, only 5% of the recommended value of working frequency electric filed in HJlT24-1998. Therefore working frequency electric filed produced by the traction transformer stations will not produce harmful impact on nearby residents. 4.7.3 Analysis of electromagnetic environment impact After the project is put into operation, the electromagnetic radiation produced by passing trains makes SNR at different channels greatly decrease. Among 12 monitoring points along the line, and among 102 TV channels received with antennas, total of 92 channels have 35db noise-signal ratio required by normal reception. After the project, the remaining 59 channels can meet SNR requirements, accounting for 64% before the project. After considering reflection and block impact of aerial bridges and train bodies, high-speed movement of trains will results in rapid fall of wireless signal channels. Therefore, from Table 8-4, we know sensitive points are seriously affected by the interference and SNR is greatly reduced. Since cable TV popularization rate along Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicate Line is rather low, generally speaking, the project produces great impact on TV signal receiving by residents along the line. Working frequency electric field and magnetic field is far lower than the national recommended standards, so it will not produce harmful influence on health of residents out of the enclosure of the transformer stations.

4.7.4 Suggestions on control measures 4.7.4.1 Suggestions on preventive measures on TV signal receiving After completion of Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicate Line, impact of electromagnetic radiation produced by the train on TV watching by residents along the line can be eliminated by connecting cable TV network and this can completely eliminate reflection and block impact by the trains. According to analysis results in Table 4-7-3, it is suggested that compensation for connecting to cable TV access fees should be reserved for the affected TV users. Compensation principle is to compensate for the sensitive points where signal receiving is greatly affected. Compensation is 500 Yuan per family and total of 5.59 million Yuan is reserved. See Table 4-7-4. After completion of the railway and the trains start to run on it, the test should be made. If the impact remains, compensation is made.

4.7.4.2 Suggestions on measures on impact of traction transformation station The position of the six 220kV traction transformer stations is not decided yet. Though working frequency electric field and magnetic field produced outside the enclosure is much lower than standards recommended by the state, transformer station is suggested to be at least 30 meters from sensitive targets such as residence, nursery schools and hospitals to further reduce electromagnetic impact and eliminate fear of residents. 4.7.5 Summary of assessment of electromagnetic environment 1. Conclusion of TV signal receiving impact After the project is put into operation, the electromagnetic radiation produced by passing trains makes SNR at different channels greatly decrease. Among 12 monitoring points along the line, and among 102 TV channels received with antennas, total of 92 channels have 35db noise-signal ratio required by normal reception. After the project, Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line the remaining 59 channels can meet SNR requirements, accounting for 64% before the project. After considering reflection and block impact of aerial bridges and train bodies, high-speed movement of trains will results in rapid fall of wireless signal channels. Sensitive points are seriously affected by the interference and SNR is greatly reduced. Since cable TV popularization rate along Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicate Line is rather low, generally speaking, the project produces great impact on TV signal receiving by residents along the line. 2. Conclusion of impact of traction transformer stations and high-voltage contact wire Working frequency electric field and magnetic field is far lower than the national recommended standards, so it will not produce harmful influence on health of residents out of the enclosure of the transformer stations. 3. Preventive measure against electromagnetism

(1 ) Protection measures on TV receiving impact After completing construction of Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line, impact of electromagnetic radiation produced by the trains on receiving TV of residents along the line can be eliminated by cable wire TV network. At the same time, radiation and sheltering impact can be completely eliminated. Compensation principle will be that compensation will be given to the sensitive points where receiving quality is greatly reduced after construction of the project. Compensation expenses are 500 Yuan per family. Reserve amount for the compensation is 5.59 million Yuan. After completion of the railway and the trains start to run on it, the test should be made. If the impact remains, compensation is made. (2) Protective measures on impact of traction transformation station Though working frequency electric field and magnetic field produced by the built six 220kv traction transformer station outside the enclosure is much lower than standards recommended by the state, transformer station is suggested to be at least 30 meters from sensitive targets such as residence, nursery schools and hospitals to further reduce electromagnetic impact and eliminate fear of residents.

2. Waste from passenger trains Waste from passenger trains is mainly living waste producing by the passengers and staff during the travel. Passing trains doesn't discard waste in the station within the section, and only destination trains discard waste at the station. There will be 3 trains, 3 trains and one trains destined at New Handan, New Anyang and New Xinxiang by 201 5 and 4 trains, 3 trains and 1 train by 2020. According to the analog survey, generation of waste from passenger trains will be 7-8 bags per train, with 7.5kg per bag. See Table 4-8-2 for waste discarded by passenger trains.

Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou section passes through Hebei Province and Henan Province and connecting Middle China, south China and North China. It has very important location and has large attraction scope. Thus Beijing-Guangzhou Railway plays critical bridge and link role in the economic connection throughout the country. With China developing toward Xiaokang Society and economic development toward I middle developed countries and acceleration of urbanization process, sizes of cities are expanding, economic strength is growing and demands for passenger and goods transportation is further improved in terms of quantity and quality. Therefore, construction of Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line and connecting with Beijing-Shijiazhuang passenger dedicated line, Zhengzhou-Wuhan passenger dedicated line and Wuhan-Guangzhou passenger dedicated line to form Beijing-Guangzhou passenger dedicated line, which is objective requirements for social and economic development in the 2 1" century and is of great importance to realize national economic development objectives. 2. Construction of Shijiazhuang -Zhengzhou passenger dedicated line is objective Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line needs to improve railway transportation quality and service level, and meeting market competition With development of national economy and improvement of people's living standards, passengers' requirements for traveling have substantially changed. More and more passengers hope to choose rapid, safe, comfort and convenient traveling means. Therefore, how to meet passengers' requirements has become a competition focus of passenger traffic and transporting market. Since reform and opening of China, various means of transportation have greatly developed, especial, road and air transportation section have made leap development. Railway transporting, restricted by various factors, can't meet development of national economy. Proportion of passenger and goods transportation by railway is continuously decreased. Construction of high-speed passenger dedicated line play advantages of railway transporting on one hand, including high speed, large capacity, low energy consumption, safety and reliability, economical and reasonable and all-weather service. On the other hand, by separating passenger line from freight line, it, based on social needs, divides or combines different types of customers and different levels of products to meet needs for multiple elements and variations. It raises competition of railway transportation to a hgh level and maximally meets needs of transporting market. This is an effective means to change the passive state of railway at the transporting market. Moreover, by reasonably division labor with expressway and air transporting, they can play their respective advantages and form modernized integrated transportation system. 3. Construction of Shijiazhuang -Zhengzhou passenger dedicated line helps to improve infrastructure construction along the line and enhance regional economic integration. Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line connects economically developed Pan-Bohai See Economic Circle and cities in the middle plain cored with Zhengzhou. There are lots of economically under-developed areas along the line. The economy development is unbalanced. In 2004, per capita GDP in Hebei Province has reached 129 18 Yuan, 1.22 times of the national average and that in Henan Province is only 9470 Yuan, only 89.67% of the national average. Construction of Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

Passenger Dedicated Line will play an unimaginable role in shortening regional discrepancy. Construction of Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line will improve traffic and transportation conditions of the region, reduce logistic cost, enhance integrated development and utilization of national land resources, improve investment environment and inter-regional economic cooperation and reasonable labor division, advance regional economic integration progress; raise gathering functions and radiation capability of cities, make large cities to play role of center city and accelerate rapid development and function upgrade of existing cities in the middle areas along the line, develop talent, finance and materials absorption ability, enable to generate and develop new small cities, accelerate overall process of urbanization in China and enhance overall development of regional and social economy. According to topic analysis with the method of input and output by the 3rd Railway Survey and Design Institute and Development and Research Center of the State Council, Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line will produce role to drive social economy by up to 200 billion Yuan or so by 2030. Beijing- Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line is an integrated part of Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line and plays huge driving role to social economy. There are abundant tourism resources along Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line. After construction of the line, and with shorter traveling hours, famous historical sites and excellent natural scenic spot along the line will take the advantages of geological location to be better developed and used to form an important tourism busy line with the passenger dedicated line as camer. 4.9.2 Land requisition, removal and resettlement 4.9.2.1 Impact of project land requisition and removal on environment (1) Impact of project land 85% of project land is basic farmland, about 911.3hm2. Permanent land requisitioned by the railway will cause total 12.862 million kg of grain reduction every year in the provinces and cities along the line, of which yield reduction is Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

7.782 million kg in Hebei Province and 5.08 million kg in Henan Province. Project construction produces certain adverse impact on agriculture production of towns and villages where land is requisitioned for the project. (2) Environment impact of land requisition and removal Land requisition for the project will cause reduced or even lost land by farmers and affect residence conditions. The project requires removal of 368,000 m20f civil houses. Assuming construction are is 160m2per family and there are 4 persons in a family, the project will result in about 9200 persons of 2300 families to immigrate, which will cause difficulty to their living at the moment. Since removal occurs mainly in rural areas and affects mainly rural residents, farmers, after losing land, have difficulty in employment. Improper land requisition, removal compensation and resettlement will result in deterioration of living level of affected residents. 4.9.2.2 Related policies, laws and regulations Land requisition, removal and personnel settlement under the project shall follow the following laws and regulations. Land Administration Law of the People's Republic of China, August 2004 Implementation Rules of Land Administration Law of the People's Republic of China, December 1998 Regulations on Removal of Houses and Building in Urban Areas, No. 305 Decree, of the State Council, June 2001 Law of the People's Republic of China on Real Estate in urban areas, July 1994 Regulation of Hebei Province on Land Administration, March 2002 Implementation Rules on Land Administration Law of Henan Province, Dec. 1 1999 4.9.2.3 Objectives of land requisition, removal and resettlement Land requisition, removal and resident settlement in connection with railway construction is a complicated social system project. To guarantee interests of residents subject to removal and railway, removal and settlement must be conducted based on related national and local policies, laws and regulations. Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

Objective of land requisition, removal and settlement for the railway project is enhance economic development of the regions where the land is requisitioned and enable the residents subject to removal to have income and housing conditions no lower than those before removal. Compensation for land requisition and settlement after removal is a work with strong policy and complex situations. The employer and the construction unit should closely cooperate with local government and distribute various compensation fees to farmers whose land is requisitioned, reduce and exempt their farmland use tax and agriculture taxes, adjust and redistribute land or arrange them in production in other sectors to reduce burden of the labors affected by land requisition and properly solve their livelihood. 4.9.2.4 Measures on settlement of removed residents According to regulation related to compensation for construction land in Land Administration Law of the People's Republic of China, measures on settlement of removed residents are as follows: (1) First, the employer should be responsible for working out action plan of resident removal under the project, trust local national land bureau to complete unified land requisition in the determined requisition scope and pay compensation for land requisition and removal. (2) After being trusted, local national land bureau signs land requisition contract with county and town government according to related national and local regulations. (3) The country and township government fulfill settlement of non-voluntary residents according to land requisition and use related regulations (4) Must ensure the living standards of the non-voluntary residents after removal no lower than that before the removal. (5) Compensation to removal residents must be made strictly according to related laws, regulations and policies. (6) Properly solve the problems during land requisition, removal and settlement promptly in accordance with related laws and regulation, leaving no future troubles.

Compensation for ground fixture and young crops The compensation for young crops in the expropriated land shall be paid according to actual loss by combining local regulations, and the fixture such as house and trees in the land shall also be compensated on the basis of evaluation. (2) Mode of payment Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

The compensations for land requisition and resettlement should be paid to grass-roots administrative units affected by the expropriation of land, generally to the county, town or village, which will control these compensations and use them in developing production, solving the problem of employment for the surplus labor resulting from the expropriation of land, and providing subsistence allowance for those losing work ability. Both the compensation for young crops and the compensation for profitable non-farmland should be paid to the party affected. The compensation should be paid according to the pricing on the basis of category of crops and cash crops. If the enclosing wall, well, graveyard and other personal wealth incapable of being moved possessed by an individual are damaged due to land requisition and removal, relevant compensations should be calculated according to the price made upon hislher personal wealth by the locality, and directly paid to the individual who suffers the loss. The peasant in need of migration should be rearranged of hislher toft, and the removal expense should be paid according to local compensation standard. 4.9.2.6 Resettlement and income restoration program The persons affected by the land requisition and removal due to the project can be divided into different categories, and different restoration and indemnifying measures should be taken for different categories of the affected persons due to different nature and degree of the impact. 1. Generally, after land requisition, there are two major modes for settlement of peasants in various regions: firstly, the grass-roots government will redistribute and adjust land, use the land compensation to carry out integrated development and utilization of the remaining land resources, or adjust land planting structure, introduce and plant hlgh-yield cash crops, raise rate of output of unit land, and the affected residents will still be arranged to engage in agricultural production, namely the mode of farming settlement. It is anticipated that most of the affected persons by the project will follow this mode of farming settlement; secondly, the governments of townships and Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line towns as well as grass-roots governments will use the land compensation to develop the secondary and tertiary industries, such as setting up enterprises of townships and towns, building farm markets, and providing more employment opportunities, so as to make the affected persons engage in commerce, transportation and service trade, etc., namely the mode of non-farming settlement. 2. This project occupies a few parts of low-yield and dry lands, and the output of these lands is much lower than that of high-yield land due to serious deficiency of development investment. For these land resources, their output can be increased by means of adjusting agricultural structure, improving irrigation facility, raising mechanization level and developing forestry, animal husbandry, fishery and subsidiary occupation, etc. The lost land of the affected persons can be made up by increasing the output of remaining land, and they may continue to engage in agricultural production. 3. The village and team affected by the land requisition may adjust and redistribute the remaining land to the affected persons, and increase the investment in the land by talung advantage of the land compensation, or adjust the land planting structure so as to raise the rate of output of the land. If the village and team cannot adjust the land, they may use the land compensation to develop the secondary and tertiary industries, such as setting up enterprises, and building farm markets at proper sites, etc. For the person who has professional skill, after hislher own willingness and notarization, the compensation can be paid to himselflherself and enable himlher to make a living by himselfherself. 4. For the land of temporary borrowing, the compensation shall only be limited to the loss of agricultural production value and of original young crops and fixture on the ground within the borrowing period. After the period, the land shall be recovered by the employer to its original cultivation conditions. 5. The compensation for land requisition and removal settlement is a complicated work largely depending on the policy, so this assessment suggests: (1) Reasonable compensation should be timely paid to the removal objects according to the stated standard. (2) For partial peasant households of disperse removal, the mode of self-removal and Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shiiiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

self-building by the peasant households themselves can be adopted. The peasant households and the village and team may negotiate about and decide new site of homestead, and the village and team should allocate new homestead to the peasant households free of charge. (3) In principle, the peasant's removal of residence should be firstly building and then removal. If it is carried out in the sequence of firstly removal and then building, the subsidy for renting houses in the transitional period should be paid to them. (4) Enhance the transparency of removal and settlement program. During settlement of the residents affected by the land requisition and removal, the negotiation mode should be always reflected. Through communication with different levels and objects, make the affected crowd understand the compensation standard of the land requisition and removal, relocation site of their premises and mode of reconstruction as well as removal time and mode of personnel settlement, etc. Take related measures to properly settle and reasonably compensate. The land requisition, removal will not produce much impact on living of residents along the line. 4.9.2.7 Analysis of residents living quality impact Permanent land requisition will cause yield reduction of grains. However, after the local government distributes land use compensation fees to the affected people and make agriculture settlement or non-agriculture settlement, living quality of the affected people will not be affected. To sum up, Permanent land requisition and removal will produce certain impact on production and living of affected residents. However, since local government will organize guidance, make effort to dig more potential of the remaining land, take related measures, provide reasonable compensation and properly arrange the settlement, living quality of residents will not be much affected. 4.9.3 Conclusion of analysis of social and economic impact 1. Construction of Shijiazhuang - Zhengzhou passenger dedicated line is objective requirements of social and economic development along the line and of the affected regions and is objective needs to improve railway transportation quality and service Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line level, and meeting market competition; helps to improve infrastructure construction along the line and enhance regional economic integration. Regional social and economic development is needs to improve railway network and realize leap railway development strategies. 2. Though construction of the project covers land of the removed residents by changing their living and operating mode or being resettled, their economic income and resident conditions, after fklfillment of compensation expenses and proper settlement by railway and local departments, is no lower than that before resettlement. In addition, this plays advancing role to economic development of some areas. Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

5. Substitute options

5.1 Non-building option Up-running passenger density and down-running passenger density of Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou section on Beijing-Guangzhou Railway have reached 23.64 million People and 23.75 million people respectively. 60 pairs of passenger trains operate on the line. Goods density from Xinxiang to Zhengzhou has reached 60.53 million tons (heavy load direction). The railway if the busiest railway trunk. The transportation capacity is almost at saturated state. Transporting capacity and service level of the existing line can't meet increasing need for passenger and goods transportation. When railway can't meet transporting needs, the increase transportation turns to highway. Main highways from south to north include Beijing-Zhuhai Expressway and GI07 National Highway. At present passenger and goods transporting flow is very high and is difficult to meet growth of annual passenger and goods transportation (capacity gas on Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Section will be more than 50 million tons by 2015). If Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line is not built, increased passenger and goods flow will surely increase transporting burden of Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Section of Beijing-Guangzhou Railway, Beijing-Zhuhai Expressway and GI07 National Highway, easily resulting in increase in transporting accidents and affecting economic development of the regions along the line. According to economic laws, people will surely seek for other means to solve transportation contradictions, which will cause unimaginable impact on environment. In respect to meeting needs for economic development and environment coordinated development, non-building option can't effectively improve and protect environment, on the contrary, possibly result in unexpected environment destruction. 5.2 Highway Substitute options 1. Comparison of traffic volume and economy At present, comparable means of transportation to the existing railway is highway transportation. Main highways from south to north include Beijing-Zhuhai Expressway, Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

G106, G107 and G207, forming improved highway network. In recent years, with continuous improvement of the above main highways and improvement of traffic capacity, speed and service quality, highway transportation plays increasing role in Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou section. Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line is an integrated part of Beijing-Guangzhou Passenger Dedicated Line and is national trunk railway. The passengers are composed of local passengers and passing passengers. Local passenger flow accounts for smaller proportion and passing passengers flow accounts larger. Composition of passenger flow is tourists, business travelers, family visitors and business traders. The areas along the line are the origin of Chinese ancient civilization and have abundant tourism resources. With improvement of people's living and realization of overall construction of Xiaokang Society, leisure tourism, sightseeing tourism and holiday tourism are widely accepted by people. Passenger flow is increasing in recent years. Moreover, sustainable development of national economy and frequent travel for purpose of visiting family and friends and business activities, inter-regional passenger flow is greatly increased and will keep rapid and stable growing trend. Railway, as medium and long distance transportation means, has dominant position. From point view of regional exchange, highway transportation has difficulty to meet the needs for the increased traffic volume By comparing railway and highway freight rates, rate for railway passenger is 0.165 Yuadperson-km and for goods transportation is 0.083 Yuadton-km, while passenger rate on the ordinary bghway is 0.15-0.20 Yuadper-km and goods rate on the ordinary highway is 0.3 5 -0.50 Yuadton-km; and passenger rate on the higher grade highways is 0.20-0.30 Yuadper-km and goods rate on the ordinary highway is 0.45-0.60 Yuadton-km. Highway transporting rate, especially those of highway, is much higher than those of railway. Railway passenger dedicated line has advantages of larger transporting capacity and lower price than highway. 2. Comparison of environment impact analysis Based on analysis in terms of possible environment impact, railway passenger dedicated Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

line has obvious advantages that highway transporting. (1) Land requisition and removal Only by widening existing highway, building new higher-grade hghways and increasing length of the existing highway, can transporting capacity of highway meet designed railway capacity. Since there are more peoples and fewer lands on the sides of the railway, widening road will surely cover farmland (especially some good land), cut trees and remove more buildings. Building a passenger dedicated line will required less land requisition and less removal than highway. (2) Environment pollution If choosing highway option, increasing passenger flow and goods flow along the line will result in larger truck flow, whch will increase the noise impact scope and duration, which is greater than those caused by railway. Discharge of waste gas from the trucks will increase air pollutant concentration along the line, whle railway will cause no air pollution since trains is dnven by electric motors. During hghway transportation, road situations and human factors will result in serious goods leakage and loss and scattered of living waste, while railway follows strict management measures and the situation is better. 3. Selection and comparison result with highway substitute option The passenger dedicate line of railway, is more excellent than highway substitute option in terms of eco-environment impact, social economic profit and transportation safety and materials security. It is the best choice. 5.3 Local comparison and selection options 5.3.1 . Option from Shijiazhuang to Xingtai Section (1) Description of line option The section from Shijiazhuang to Xingtai is affected by exploited hollow area of Yuanbei Coal Mine and Gaoyi Industrial Zone. Three directions will be studied on the section, they are Yunshi East Option, Yuanshi Middle Option and Yuanshi West Option. See Sketch of line from Shijiazhuang to Xingtai for details.

The road is 45.676km long. The investment in the project is 3034.33 million Yuan. (2) Analysis of environment reasonableness The three line options from Shijiazhuang to Xingtai Section are all at diluvia plane in front of mountains. The landform and terrain along the line is similar. 90% of land is farmland. Option I1 line is relatively straight, without crossing Beijing-Guangzhou Railway and No. 107 National Highway but it is parallel to Beijing-Guangzhou Railway and passes Yuanshi County. There are more noises and vibration sensitive points along the line. Line of Option I11 is longer. The line passes through west of Yuanshi County. There are fewer noises and vibration sensitive points. However, according to coal mine departments, there are coal resources in the west of hollow exploitation area. The mine is under investigation. The line will cover some coal resources if passing by, about 7km long. The different line options are mainly consider distribution of sensitive points, crossing and avoidance of existing expressway, national highway, railway and buildings. Based on overall consideration, Option I recommended for the project is environmentally reasonable featured by fewer residents affected, small quantity of earth and rock works and small project investment. 5.3.2 Option for Xingtai Station Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

8.3 Conclusion of assessment of environment impact 8.3.1 Conclusion of assessment of eco-environment impact 1. Railway construction will cover permanent land use of 1174.5hm2, of which is 93 1.7hm2 (basic agriculture field of 9 11.3 hm2) of cultivated land and 63. lhm2 of construction land. Use of large quantity of cultivated land will produce adverse impact on use layout and agriculture production along the line, and results in reduction of grain yield of 12.862 million kg every year. By taking measures of economic compensation for land creation and recovery, the impact can be alleviated. 2. For the project construction, 171300 trees in the construction scope will be cut, resulting in destruction to vegetation along the line. In the project design, reasonable compensation will be provided for tree cutting. At the same time, arbors, bushes and grasses are planted on the sides of the line and roadbed slop to protect the slopes and beautifying and improving eco-environment. 292840 arbors and 144,090 bushes will be planted to greatly compensate for destruction to vegetation by the project construction. 3. In the design of bridges and culverts, requirements for flood discharge, irrigation, surface runoff, person traveling and animal passages have been taken into account. Bridges and culverts are all designed for water level of 11100, producing slight impact on rivers, flood discharge, flood detention, irrigation and overland runoff and animal passages. 4. Filling for roadbed and station site of the project is 1980.2~104m3, and cutting is

1163.Ox 104m3 (including bridge foundation cut of 1092.5~104m3). The project has Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shiiiaszhuana-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

provided related project protection and greening prevention measures for earth site, roadbed slope, spoil of bridge and culvert foundation, construction site and passage. Fulfillment of these measures will help to reduce impact of earth and rock works on eco-environment and reduce water and soil loss.

The project has 19 earth sites which can provide 1995x 104m3 of earth and covers earth site of 540hm2 consisted of hills and barren and dry land, producing slight impact on agricultural production and vegetation. There are 16 spoil sites, which are all soil pits produced by the project. Spoil will be treated and recovered with the earth sites. 6. Total of water and soil loss of 181634.4t occurs in the construction period and natural recovery period of the project. After taking water and soil reservation measures, the water rand soil loss is decreased by 172553.0t. 7. There are no environment-sensitive areas such as natural reservation area, water source protection area and cultural relic reservation units in the assessment scope of the project. 8.3.2 Conclusions of assessment of sound environment forecast 1. Environment protection measures during the construction period include: reasonably arrange construction site so as to try to be far away from sensitive points such as residential areas; reasonably arrange working period. Operation with larger noises should be arranged at daytime. Reasonably arrange construction machines in the construction site. If operation is required under special circumstances, certification of people's government above county level or related competent departments should be presented. Strengthen environment noise monitoring during the construction period. 2. According to environment noise predication results, the noise equivalent sound level 30 meters from center line of outside railway to residences is 64.5-74.4dBA at daytime and 62.2-72.3dBA at night, 0.2-4.4dBA higher and 0.1-2.3dBA higher than standards at daytime and night respectively; the noise equivalent sound level 30- 60(75) meters from center line of outside railway to residences is 63.4-73.4dBA at daytime and 60.8-71.3dBA at night, 0.1-3.4dBA higher and 5.8-1 6.3dBA higher Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

of the railway. 8.3.3 Conclusions of expected assessment of environment vibration 1. Average speed in the entrance and exit station sections in the passenger dedicated line during operation period is relatively high and only some trains will stop in the station to avoid high grade trains. Expected vibration value is high. Most of outdoors ground Z vibration grades 30 meters from external tract from road bank and bridges and section can't meet standards of 80dB. 2. Evaluation of outdoors ground Z vibration grades 30 meters from external tract from road bank and bridges and section is as high as 84.5-86.5dB. Internal and external vibration of the buildings can't meet standards. 3. Schools and nursery schools on the sides of the line are far from the line. Indoors and outdoors noises can meet 80dB standards. Outdoor vibration of No. 60 Zhangzhuang Primary School (35m) and No. 111 Shizhai No. 1 Middle School (1 8m) exceeds 80dB. I 4. Points more than 80 meters from the roadbed and non-residue roadbed along the 1 flood plainlflushing plain of Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line can I meet vibration standards on the sides of the railway trunk. After using vibration I reduction roadbed, the vibration standard distance is about 5 1m. 60 meters from the I bridge impact scope can meet standards, after vibration reduction, distance of 38 I meters can meet standards. Taking damping role of the buildings, vibration 33 meters I from road banks and 24 meters from bridges lines after vibration reduction measures I can be lower than 80dB. I 8.3.4 Conclusions of assessment of water environment impact 1. After implementation of the project, increased wastewater in new Handan Station, New Hebi and New Xinxiang is all domestic wastewater, which is discharged into I existing pipelines and then to municipal discharge system and finally to municipal wastewater treatment plant after treatment in the septic tank. Each index can meet Grade I11 standards of Wastewater Comprehensive Discharge Standards (GB8978-1996). Process technology for design is feasible.

2. New Gaoyi, New Xingtai and New Anyang (1) Wastewater from New Gaoyi Station, after oxidation treatment, is discharged into nearby main channels. The outgoing water quality meets Grade I1 standards of Wastewater Comprehensive Discharge Standards (GB8978-1996). Process technology for design is feasible. (2) Wastewater from New Xingtai Station, after oxidation treatment, is discharged into nearby Niuwei River. The outgoing water quality meets Grade I1 standards of Wastewater Comprehensive Discharge Standards (GB8978-1996). Process technology for design is feasible. (3) Wastewater from New Anyang Station, after oxidation treatment, is discharged into nearby Chapodian Channel. The outgoing water quality meets Grade I1 standards of Wastewater Comprehensive Discharge Standards (GB8978-1996). Process technology for design is feasible. 8.3.5 Conclusion of assessment of air environment impact 1. New Gaoyi, New Xingtai, New Handan, New Anyang, New Hebi and New Xinxiang are heated with terrestrial heat, producing no adverse impact to the air environment. Maintenance regions in New Gaoyi, New Handan, New Hebi and New Xinxiang are heated by oil boiler. Soot, concentration of SO2 and NOX, after measurement, can meet standards of Category I1 Section I1 of GB 13271-200 1 Discharge Standards of Boiler Air Pollutants. 2. During construction of the project, fume produced from construction machmes, dusts from earth construction and transportation vehicles and fumes discharged from temporary small boilers for hot water and cooking at the construction site produce certain impact on air environment. However, after taIung measures, adverse impact can be controlled. The construction unit should strictly observe related laws and regulations to minimize the impact. The impact will be naturally vanished with completion of the construction. 3. It is recommended that oil-he1 boiler in the maintenance areas in New Gaoyi, New Handan, New Hebi and New Xinxiang should be changed into terrestrial heating Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

pumps. 8.3.6 Conclusion of assessment of electromagnetic environment impact 1. Conclusion of TV signal receiving impact After the project is put into operation, the electromagnetic radiation produced by passing trains makes SNR at different channels greatly decrease. Among 12 monitoring points along the line, and among 102 TV channels received with antennas, total of 92 channels have 35db noise-signal ratio required by normal reception. After the project, the remaining 59 channels can meet SNR requirements, accounting for 64% before the project. After considering reflection and block impact of aerial bridges and train bodies, high-speed movement of trains will results in rapid fall of wireless signal channels. Therefore, from Table 8-4, we know sensitive points are seriously affected by the interference and SNR is greatly reduced. Since cable TV popularization rate along Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicate Line is rather low, generally speaking, the project produces great impact on TV signal receiving by residents along the line. 2. Conclusion of impact of traction transformer stations and high-voltage contact wire Working frequency electric field and magnetic field is far lower than the national recommended standards, so it will not produce harmful influence on health of residents out of the enclosure of the transformer stations. 8.3.7 Conclusion of public participation Public participation can make assessment unit know lots of public information on related project construction and plays positive role on direction of project construction and environment protection and coordination, strengthen understanding and support of public on the project and lay solid foundation for smooth implementation of the project. The People along the railway show support to the project and considers the project will benefit the local economic development. Almost all the interviewees realize importance of environment. Noises and vibration is the major environment problem. Most of people cooperate with the removal for land use involved and wish to get reasonable Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

economic compensation. The assessment suggests the employer places priority to environment protection spiritually and fulfill environment protection treatment measures in action to minimize environment impact during the construction period and operation period of the railway. While guarantee public interests, play economic profit and social profit of the project. 8.3.8 Conclusion of analysis of solid waste impact By taking measures such as discard of waste at fixed points, prompt recovery, centralized disposal and strengthen waste discharge management, despite of increase in solid waste by the operation of the project along the lines, especially at stations and sections near the stations, they will not produce impact on surrounding environment after taking above measures 8.3.9 Conclusion of analysis of social and economic environment 1. Construction of Shijiazhuang -Zhengzhou passenger dedicated line is objective requirements of social and economic development along the line and of the affected regions. and is objective needs to improve railway transportation quality and service level, and meeting market competition; helps to improve infrastructure construction along the line and enhance regional economic integration. Regional social and economic development is needs to improve railway network and realize leap railway development strategies. 2. Though construction of the project covers land of the removed residents by changing their living and operating mode or being resettled, their economic income and resident conditions, after fulfillment of compensation expenses and proper settlement by railway and local departments, is no lower than that before resettlement. In addition, ths plays advancing role to economic development of some areas. 8.3.10 Conclusion of Environment Impact assessment The assessment holds that construction of Shijiazhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line meets national energy structure polices and technical policies of the railway sector and has great importance to enhance regional economic development along the line and improving traffic. Though the project produce negative impact on Environment Impact Report of Newly built Railway of Shijiaszhuang-Zhengzhou Passenger Dedicated Line

ecology, sound, vibration, water and air and electromagnetic environment to different degrees, the project design realizes the seriousness of the impacts and actively take effective control measures. The report also provides preventive measures and suggestions addressing specific situations. By fully fulfilling the environment protection measures and requirements of "three simultaneous" in the main project, the adverse impact of the project on environment can be mitigated or eliminated. Implementation of the project will not produce serious impact or destruction. The project construction is environmentally feasible.
