If the location of the degree project road is in dry areas, the of impact is more than in a wet area where the trees can be planted and grown Himachal easily. In the case Pradesh considerable vegetation exists in the PIA as forests of various categories. Mehatpur-Una-Amb Except along the road there is hardly any planted avenue plantation along the prioritised 41 3kms. project roads of The scopes for tree planting along hill roads are rather poor. Nevertheless there are many isolated patches of unutilised land along the project road. Two sketches are prepared for the possibility of road side plantation. These are provided inthe Appendix 21 Design drawings. One of the drawing is a standard plantation scheme for two lane road in(Plains) with shoulders @ 200 plants per km length (Refer SOS, 2006) The second figure is a standard plantation scheme for two lane road (inhills) with shoulders length. @ 100 plants per km The main areas where proposed forestation along the road on both sides where ever adequate If this not possible ROW is available. at least one side on the side slope should be adequately protected by adopting measures. slope stability 2.0 PURPOSE OF TREE PLANTATION The objectives of planting trees and shrubs at selected enhancement sites against following the felled trees are the * To reduce the impacts of air and dust pollution and act as a natural filter to traffic emissions * To provide shade for the traffic as well as the pedestrians * To reduce the impact of vehicular noise caused by vehicles * To arrest soil erosion on slopes * Beautification of sites by planting selective ornamental shrubs, landscaping and turfing with grasses * planting trees on the roadsides is to produce a softer greener landscape. * to raise social forestry in order to improve the * to act as a natural filter to the traffic emissions. 3.0 IMPACTED TREES 3.1 PUBLIC OWNED TREES- These are trees within the legal ROW of project road with inthe control of PWD. All these trees with in the forest reserves are also termed as public trees. However the procedure for cufting of these trees isdifferent from the normal trees with inthe PWD ROW. Plafform trees: There are number good fully grown Trees with beautiful canopy along most of the roads except along the Theog -Rohru project road. One tree with plafform adjoining the front portion of a temple complex will be removed from the Una -Amb section as itfalls inthe middle of the proposed alignment. 3.2 PRIVATE OWNED TREES- The number of prvate owned trees to be acquired outside the right of way will be high compared trees within the to the public right of way. The private trees that will be affected during widening and improvement subjected to will be compensation at the appropriate market rates. Inaddition to this the project will every tree removed plant two trees for as a compensatory tree planting measure irrespective of the size, species etc. The total no of impacted trees along the project road are section) Himachal State Roads Project Environmental Management plan (Theog-Kharapatthar-Rohru * Trees with in the road right of way 1764 Nos * Trees with inthe 10.62 ha of Forest land to be acquired - 1418 Nos Forest Therefore 5292 Nos of trees will be required to be planted as a compensatory tree planting as per the conservation act. The data not available are to be obtained from the Social impact survey and land verification. The trees with inthe forest land to be acquired will be planted by forest department as per the Forest conservation Act, 1980. 4.0 SELECTION OF TREES SPECIES The selection of the plants for greenery development isto be made as per the following criteria; * Plants should be fast growing with dense canopy cover; * Preferably perennial and evergreen with large leaf area index; * Indigenous * Resistant to air pollutants involved, and * Should help to maintain the ecological and hydrological balance of the region Species The most recommended trees for planting along the hill road sides are provided in the following table. Selected for Tree Plantation. of the area. The plant species that are selected based on the climatic condition, soil characterstics and conditions of The row closest to the main carriage way will be of shade plants. Similarly, subsequent rows will comprise with high ornamental and flowering species. Mainly native deciduous species, which retain their foliage longest, the species crown forms, resistant to fungus and insects with rapid growth rate are selected for avenues. Lists of recommended as shade plants are given below: 4.1 TREES RECOMMENDED FOR PLANTING TABLE 1.0 TREES RECOMMENDED FOR PLANTING 1 Deodar 2 Kail 3 Cheed 4 Baan 5 Rai 6 Mohru 7 Kaamal 8 Kunish _ eyelenthis Himachal State Roads Project Environmental Management plan (Theog-Kharapatthar-Rohru section) 4.2 RECOMMENDED SHADE TREES Table 2.0 Shade Trees Recommended for Roadside Use S(Nto han SpVctes 1 Deodar 2 Kail 3 Cheed 4 Baan 5 Rai 6 Mohru 7 Kaamal 8 Kunish 9 eyelenthis 5.0 COMPENSATORY TREE PLANTATION PROGRAMME All trees that are cut and removed will be accountable as per the forest laws and efforts will be maintained to plant three times the number of trees cut according to this tree plantation strategy. Total number of trees that will be cut and removed will be more than 1764 private trees in addition to the 1418 trees located with in the forest reserves. This will require compensatory planting of 5292 trees along the sides of the newly constructed project road or in other locations. Indigenous species of trees recommended above are most suited for the tree plantations. In order to make it tourist friendly and beautiful same types of trees would be planted in the same location so that for every kilometre the trees would change to new species. Since the area has dense forest sections, a very detailed study has been undertaken on biodiversity impacts. 6.0 TREE PLANTING DURING CONSTRUCTION 6.1 TREE PLANTING ALONG THE ROAD SIDES Tree plantation will be the responsibility of the Forest department. Necessary budget has been made for the tree plantation and provided in the EMP. The total no of trees to be planted will be double the number of trees that will be removed from the road sides for the improvement of the project road. The Forest Department will be responsible for obtaining sites and planting trees to compensate for the required tree cutting. 6.2 TREE PLANTING ALONG OXBOW LANDS In rural areas, it is an accepted fact that the improvement of roads will result in the formation of numerous 'oxbow lands' all along the hill sides where in suitable curve improvements and realignment takes place. The Oxbow lands are the existing roads where the road realignments are proposed. This is similar to the OXBOW LAKES formed during the evolution of rivers hence the name for easier identification for environmental management. The importance of the proper management of these oxbow lands is there for an unavoidable outcome of the project. There were many alternatives available for the highway authority. Tree planting all along these oxbow lands could be very useful for the environmental enhancement of the region. This will help positively for tourism industry. The Oxbow lands along the corridors are available as described in the Environmental Management Plan for individual corridors. (Theog-Kharapatthar-Rohru section) Himachal State Roads Project Environmental Management plan 7.0 PROTECTION MEASURES The protection measures are discussed inthis section 7.1 BARBED WIRE FENCING at a Barbed wire fencing around the plantation area will be provided to protect the plants. Angle iron will be fixed spacing of 5 m.with 3-stand stretched barbed wire. 7.2 PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES: * Plantation will be made in the monsoon months (July -August) * The height of the plants should not be less than 1 ft. and should be supplied in polythene bags which are not to be removed until the moment of planting * All plants supplied must be planted within three days of removal from the nursery * Arrangements must be made to water in case of insufficient rains after planting * kgs of compost / manure are suggested for each pit before plantation 7.2.1 SHRUBS Prior to planting it is suggested to remove all loose debris, fill up with good soil and level the area. To ensure (up better growth and survival of grasses and shrubs, the surface should have sufficient layer of good quality soil be to 45 cms). Shrubs which are suggested for the road side and open area spaces where available should selected from the following and agreed with the Environmental Specialist of the Construction Supervising Consultants Environmental Specialist: Garna Caroissa spinarum Karir Caparis decidua Hins Capris zeylanica Gandhala Murra yakoenigih Malla Zizypuhs nummularia Jhau Artemesia spp Jindu Xanthium stumarium Panwar Cassia tora Jangli Mirch Capsicum fruitscens Akk Ipomea gossypiolides The Contractor will be responsible for planting of shrubs at enhancement sites and along bridge approaches during construction phase. 7.2.2 TURFING WITH GRASSES during The Contractor will be responsible for turfing at enhancement sites and along bridge approaches construction phase. construction The cost for the turfing along the bridge approaches and high embankments are part of the Civil contract. surface. If Grass lines are used to provide a strong surface cover at the slope but it also needs a well-prepared to undue grass is to be effective, then it must be allowed to establish properly on a slope which is not subject suggested stress from erosion and mass movement in its initial stages. To ensure this the following measures are for the grass turfing. Himachal State Roads Project Environmental Management plan (Theog-Kharapatthar-Rohru section) * A cover of 25 grams of grass seed per square m. of surface will be prepared * Bed will be prepared in June. The seed sowing must be carried out before the onset of monsoon so that they yield desired results. Till the onset of the monsoon, watering of the surface to be done by tankers with controlled flow sprinklers. * After sowing, mulch of prepared and dried out herbs will be laid over the whole seeded area in a thin layer so that the direct sunlight and transpiration loss may not affect the grasses * The grass species recommended for median are Khabbal, Dhaula, Palwan, Sariala and Kahi. Contractor will ensure that the condition of the site is good enough for the successful establishment of grasses and shrubs. They will also supervise all field operations like preparation of surface, sowing of grasses and quality of grass seeds used. 8.0 TREE PLANTATION COSTS The plantation cost has been included in the bill of quantities (BOQ) under the non civil contracts and provided in section 8.0 of the Environmental management plan (EMP). A tree - planting strategy is being developed which will meet all compensatory tree planting that will be cut during the improvement of the roads including private trees. The cost provisions have been included in the EMP and BOQ. 9.0 MAINTENANCE OF TREES PLANTED The trees planted once will be maintained at any cost for the full growth of at least for a period of three years. A programme of compensatory afforestation has been proposed, not only to replace the trees, which must be cut to accommodate road widening and improvements in geometric design, but also to upgrade the condition of adjacent areas. Trees will be re - planted at a rate of two for each one removed depending upon the location. Tree felling in other sites such as borrow areas- will be accommodated by the Contractor in the borrow area management plan. section) Himachal State Roads Project Environmental Management plan (Theog-Kharapatthar-Rohru APPENDIX 13: NATIONAL STANDARD OF AIR, NOISE AND WATER 1.0 NATIONAL AMBIENT AIR QUALITY STANDARDS 3 Sulphur Dioxide Annual* 15 pg/m3 80 pg/M3 60 pg/M Improved West and Method Ultraviolet (502) _Gaeke 3 24 hours** 30 pg/M3 120 pg/M3 80 pg/M Fluorescence 3 3 Oxides of Annual* 15 pg/m3 80 pg/m 60 pg/M Jacob & Hochheiser Nitrogen (NOX) Modified method 3 24 hours** 30 pg/M3 120 pg/M3 80 pg/M Gas phase Chemiluminescence 3 3 Suspended Annual* 70 pg/m3 360 pg/M 140 pg/M High Volume Sampler less Particulate (Average flow rate not 3 3 3 Matter (SPM) 24 hours** 100 pg/m3 500 pg/M 200 pg/m than 1.1 m /minute) 3 3 Respirable Annual* 50 pg/m3 120 pg/m 60 pg/M Respirable Particulate Particulate Matter Sampler 3 3 Matter (RPM) 24 hours' 75 pg/r 3 150 pg/M 100 pg/m Size < 10pm 3 3 Lead (Pb) Annual* 0.50 pg/m3 1.0 pg/rM 0.75 pg/m AAS Method after sampling using EPM 3 24 hours** 0.75 pg/M3 1.5 pg/M3 1.00 pg/M 2000 or equivalent filter paper 3 3 Carbon 8 hours** 1.0 mg/m3 5.0 mg/m 2.0 mg/m Non-dispersive infrared 3 3 Monoxide (CO) 1 hour 2.0 mg/m 3 10.0 mg/m 4.0 mg/m Spectroscopy * Annual arithmetic mean of minimum 104 measurements in a year taken twice a week 24 hourly at uniform interval **24 hourly/8 hourly values should be met 98% of the time ina year.

Nevertheless the water requirement at the dry sections will be much more than the other sections. Besides the surface water sources there are numerous community drinking water sources along the project road. This include springs, PWS, HPs, wells, Shallow tube wells etc. The guidelines provided here are over and above the provisions include in the National Water Policy and State Water Policy. Therefore Contractor must refer to these two documents and if necessary consult the Irrigation department who prepared the State policy. 2.0 WHY DO WE NEED A MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR MEETING THE WATER REQUIREMENT DURING CONSTRUCTION? The availability of water for construction is very limited and this is variable through out the section. The contractor may resort to take water from streams, rivers and other sources near by without the consent of all relevant officials and the local communities. There is every chance that the contractors labor force (even without the knowledge of the Contractor ) will try to use and over use the existing community drinking water sources. In such cases community conflict could lead to stoppage of construction work and will hinder the progress of all activities. In the event of such occurrences there could be financial loss for the government and the people. More over the people hardship during construction will continue and worsen. After all, a careful planning inthis regard is going to save contractor's efforts and time. A well planned construction procedure will help the Contractor to finish the work inthe scheduled date of completion. 3.0 QUANTITY OF WATER REQUIREMENT DURING CONSTRUCTION During construction phase water will be required for the following, * Construction work along the road (e.g. for compaction and dust suppression) * Inthe plant site (e.g. Batch mixers, masonry works) * Water for drinking at plant sites, and at construction camps If applies thump rule for the minimum requirement of water then 10,000 lpd per running kilometer of work will be taken into account. 4.0 CONVENTIONAL WATER SOURCES The possible conventional source for the Contractor would be the following (a)Rivers (e.g. Beas) (b)Reservoirs (e.g. Govind Sagar) (c)Streams, Nallahs, etc (d)Deep bore wells etc Other than this, there are non conventional sources. These are the harvesting of; a) (e)Rainwater Himachal State Roads Project Environmental Management plan (Theog-Kharapatthar-Rohru section) b) (f) Snow water c) (h) Springs 5.0 CONVENTIONAL WATER RESOURCES 5.1 RIVERS (E.G BEAS) Major rivers are the most conventional source of construction water that is feasible. Even then the Contractor needs to obtain all necessary permissions prior to the extraction of water. Inthis case the potential impact to water quality should be avoided. No vehicle wash shall be allowed in the river as it pollutes the river. The Petroleum, Oil and Lubricants (POL) can pollute the river water. 5.2 RESERVOIRS/DAMS Contractor can use of reservoir water for construction. For example in the case of Una Nerchowk, possibility of use of Govind Sagar reservoir shall be explored. All necessary written permission shall be obtained from all authorities who has a stake in the dam water. 5.3 STREAMS AND NALLAS Inthe case of streams and nallas, Contractor constructs suitable water harvesting structure to harvest the stream water. The dimension of the structure could be of the order of 5 m X 2m x 2m (20 m3) For construction of this structure in the river bed, Contractor should obtain written Permission from all concerned departments. 5.4 DEEP BORE WELLS The scopes for deep bore wells are rather limited due to the Geomorphologic characteristics and the limited availability of groundwater 6.0 NON-CONVENTIONAL WATER RESOURCES 6.1 RAINWATER Rain water harvesting structures- a probable option. For construction water, in the scarcity/dry area, if required Contractor can opt for harvesting of the rain water. For that a water harvesting structure has to be constructed. Potential locations for a harvesting structure need to be identified in relations to the availability of water and water catchments area. This can be constructed in the form of ponds with non-percolating tanks which can be "kacha " tanks covering the Tarpaulins sheets at the bottom. This is not a new concept. These are being used in many parts of the Himachal Pradesh. This will help the Contractor to extract water for this purpose for the construction period. 6.2 SNOW MELT WATER Although snow water is very unconventional, this could be very important source of construction water. Contractor will have to look for suitable location to collect snow melt water during February-March April period. This is applicable on for the Theog- Rohru road. The potential location is Kharapatthar. Depending up on the location and the need contractor can also see the possibility of the same near Theog area. The structure should be more or less similar to Rain water harvesting. 6.3 SPRINGS The springs are concentrated discharge of Ground water appearing at the surface as continuous flow of water. These area basically water table aquifer in the case of perennial springs. In the case of non - perennial springs Himachal State Roads Project Environmental Management plan (Theog-Kharapatthar-Rohru section) this is the saturated soil water the drains an area. Contractor should take permission from local communities as wells as from the Department for the use of springs. This source is not recommended as a viable option along the project road. Nevertheless presence of potential springs out side the road ROW along the feeder roads could not be ruled out. 7.0 DOS AND DONTS FOR THE CONTRACTOR There are a number of dos and don'ts for the Contractor as provided below; * Contractors vehicles shall not be allowed to wash in the river or stream. This is to avoid potential pollution from POL residues. * Contractors shall not use water from the community drinking water sources such as; o Public water supply schemes o Community spring water sources o Community hand pumps o Community bore wells /shallow tube wells o Location of or the streams from which the community take drinking water * Contractor shall obtain all legal approvals and clearances from the concerned departments. * Contractor shall consult the local communities where the water source has been identified. * If the source is a spring -check discharge, dependency in consultation with local communities. * If the source is nalla/khurd- discharge data for the past several years need to be analysed, whether source is perennial, or non-perennial, any irrigation scheme is running over it or not, if IPH* department is using it,or local people using it or not. NOC* from all concemed authorities will be required. * If the source is a major river like Beas-, In addition to the local permissions, Contractor may require obtaining written permission from the State level authorities at Shimla. * If the sources is groundwater (a Hand pump/bore well or open deep well)- then its chemical composition and water related tests are required to be obtained from the competent authority and an NOC* obtained from the competent authority is also required . * IPH = Irrigation and Public Health Department. * NOC=No objection certificate. 8.0 POST CONSTRUCTION STAGE Once the Contractor finishes his job, this can be handed over to the local panchayath or for local communities. The two possible alternate uses of this structure would be * local communities of this area can use the same to meet their water needs * This could be a water hole for the wild life of that particular area. * If the water source is snow melt water all necessary planning shall be carried out prior to the snow melt period. This could be end February to end March. * In the case of snow melt water only local permission to establish the 'kacha Tanks' i.e. This is a cost effective structure. A local NGO or community groups is to be introduced to execute such type of works. So that the Contractor can obtain considerable quantity of water. In this case after the construction phase, same local groups will inherit the structure and there by will continue to use this. * If road passes through a plain water scarcity prone area and if no nearby water source has been identified, transportation is uneconomic, then Contractor should go for underground water option. if it is feasible and will not lead to a serious depletion of the source ground water. Himachal State Roads Project Environmental Management plan (Theog-Kharapatthar-Rohru section) APPENDIX 17: GUIDELINES FOR THE PREPARATION OF CONTRACTORS 'DEBRIS DISPOSAL PLAN' 1.0 INTRODUCTION This is the most widely talked about impact of road widening in the State of Himachal Pradesh. Even the common man living on the roads side is worried about the possibility of disposal of large amount of debris towards the valley side to his premises. This could be apple orchards, other farming areas, 3 his house etc. On an average 30,000 m per kilometer of debris would be generated. The maximum possible use for the road work would be 10- 40 % depending on the kind of materials that would be impacted. If not careful the massive soil erosion could take these loose materials in to the Arabian Sea and to the Bay of Bengal (from Giri rver and Pabbar river). Hence the Contractor should plan for the disposal of muck in such a way so that it may not harm, or create any hindrance for the implementation of the project. It's obvious that nearly a 10 million Cub.m of muck will be cut and removed during the hill award side widening of Phase 1 roads. During the execution phase, Contractor should plan for its safe disposal according to the geographical status of area. A poor planning could lead to very poor engineering practices, community conflicts and the stoppage of the work etc that could incur huge losses to all concemed. 2.0 THE PROJECT The Himachal State Roads Project (HSRP) is now planning to implement the phase 1 batch 1 roads. Altogether 250kms of roads would be implemented in four ICB and one NCB contracts. Where ICB is the International competitive bidding and NCB is the national competitive biding process. The projects roads that are included in the batch 1are the following; Mehatpur-Una-Amb Una-Barsar-Nerchowk Theog- Kharapatthar-Rohru From the first road Mehatpur-Una-Amb road, no excess debris would be available. On the other hand this road would require considerable quantity of borrow and quarry materials. On the other hand there would be huge quantity of debris materials inboth other two project roads. 3.0 EXPECTED QUANTITIES OF DEBRIS GENERATED An analysis has been carried out to understand the quantum or the dimension of the issue. The expected quantified debris materials would be 1.68 million cubic meters for the Theog-Rohru and an estimated 2.268 million in the case of Una- Nerchowk. These quantities are quite large in terms of the space or area required for the disposal. Himachal State Roads Project Environmental Management plan (Theog-Kharapatthar-Rohru section) TABLE 1AN ANALYSIS OF THE EXPECTED QUANTITY OF MATERIALS AVAILABLE Theog-Rohru 80 70 2,453,139 367,146 2,085,993 Una Nerchowk 126 60 1,236,059 1007319 228,740 Total 206 130 3,689,198 1,374,465 2,314,733 4.0 4.0 POSSIBLE USES The excavated materials that can be used for the insitu construction purposes would be limited to as low as 10-20 %. This is mainly due to the adequacy of the quality of the materials that would be generated. The expected possible use of the materials would be for the following; Using it as the granular sub base (GSB) Fill materal to create embankments especially of the bridge approaches and realignment 4.1 ENVIRONMENTAL ENHANCEMENT USES Other possible environmental enhancement uses could be * To create proposed parking areas * To use the oxbow lands available on the road sides Where in the oxbow lands are the left over portion of the project road while realigning/, bypassing or by one side widening (RHS or LHS). In the above in situ uses the quantity of materials required to use in the oxbow lands and the parking areas would be substantially higher. In this case, the project can maximize the project benefits to many fold. If this is not carried out as part of the project all the PWD land would be degraded and would be encroached by private people. In the long run, it will be a huge loss for the GOHP and for the people of HP. More over overall the project would remain as "incomplete" for ever. To make a complete road we must address all issues that would be generated by the project. 5.0 POSSIBLE IMPACTS DUE TO THE EXCAVATED DEBRIS MATERIALS If not disposed off properly what would be the expected scenario? This is described in the following sub sections 5.1 to 5.5. 5.1 OBSTRUCTION TO NATURAL WATER COURSES The materials if not disposed off properly would be taken by the running water to the lowest portion of the valleys creating huge obstruction to free flow of natural stream water. If people are residing nearby that would affect their life by way of flooding or by spoiling the premises. 5.2 SILTATION INSURFACE WATER RESERVOIRS Most of the materials would be ultimately taken down stream through rivers and ultimately depositing in to reservoirs leading to heavy siltation. This in turn would reduce the reservoir capacity substantially within a very short span. This could incur huge losses to the exchequer. Desiltation is also expensive and normally carried out after many years of operation of reservoirs in the natural circumstances. Himachal State Roads Project Environmental Management plan (Theog-Kharapatthar-Rohru section) 5.3 SOIL EROSION Massive soil erosion is the most direct impact of the debris excavation. The precipitation and the consequent run off would erode the loose materials by way of suspension and solution. Once reached up to the main stream courses even the big boulders would be transported down due to the steep gradients available along the stream courses. 5.4 SPOILING OF AGRICULTURAL LAND As a usual practice mainly due to poor planning and limited resources, the Contactor usually throw the materials to the near by valley areas. This would be taken down to the private agricultural areas. The farmer will incur huge losses and may even sue the Contractor. As a result the project could be stopped indefinitely leading to losses. 5.5 DESTRUCTION OF AGRICULTURAL CROPS Destruction of agricultural crops immediately down the hill will require crop compensation there by reducing the profit margin of the Contractor. 6.0 IDENTIFIED DISPOSAL AREAS The Contractor should also try to make use of all disposal areas identified during the project preparation stage. These are provided in the table 2.0. Table 2.0 Identified Disposal Areas Theog -Kotkhai-Hatkoti-Rohru Gajjed 5.000 200 School ground 2250 Chela 18.000 No use 45,000 Gumma 27.080 2500 School ground 200,000 Chelneir 37.800 to 38.000 No use 4000 Gazta 42.700 1.800 Private land 20,000 Jubbal 59.900 1.500 No use 10,000 Patsari 189.300 to 189 0.00 No use 12000 820 Mendli-1 193.800 to 193. 0.00 Private 9000 960 Mendli-2 194.500 0.00 Private 300,000 if the road execution is an approaching hill area, semi hill area, mountainous area, rocky area then most important is to segregate the debris into useful or non useful material. Useful means stones can be used as construction material and non useful can be used as development of the public, social and cultural properties, as already written above. Such as parking places, school playground, bus bays, ground near any temple, Gurudwaras and shrine so that people participation can also be assured inthe implementation of this project. So it would be good if an NGO is introduced to perform this task more efficiently. 6.1 PROPOSED TYPICAL DESIGNS The proposed typical designs are provided in the Appendix-21 Design drawings. Most important characteristics of the identified locations are the requirement of retaining walls. The fill height has been fixed as two meter for it to be manageable. Himachal State Roads Project Environmental Management plan (Theog-Kharapatthar-Rohru section) 7.0 DISPOSAL AREAS IDENTIFIED BY THE CONTRACTOR In order to maximise the profits or at least to reduce the expenditure the Contractor usually resort to his own methods. Inthat process Contractor could find a number of more feasible areas. 8.0 DISPOSAL METHODS AND ITS LIMITATIONS There are several constraints inthe disposal of material inthe identified locations. These are * Disposal areas are uneven and irregular inshape inthe hilly terrain * Most of the disposal areas would require construction of retaining walls * Disposal areas would require compaction * Disposal areas would require plantation * Would require consultation with all concerned * Would require written permission form all concemed * Would require to transport through difficult haul roads - may require maintenance * Need to transport safely with covered trucks using tarpaulin * No overloading and should be in small trucks or dumpers 8.1 LOCAL COMMUNITY GROUPS At each identified debris disposal locations, it is necessary to form local community groups. Entrust the duty of the supervision and all other assistance to dumping process. Ultimately the disposed area should be compacted using road rollers. 8.2 INFORMATION DISPLAY BOARDS The capacity of the disposal locations, name of the location etc shall be written in an Information board at each identified disposal locations. 9.0 PROPOSED DESIGN Contractor need to plan the disposal inthe following way. * Identify the disposal area * Need to photograph the present land use and condition of the area * Consult with all stake holders * Get written agreements from all concemed * Prepare a suitable design for the safe disposal * Construct all required structures (e.g. retaining wall) * Planting of fast growing poplar trees on the outer portion of the retaining wall inthe form of a linear wall parallel to the retaining wall * Estimate the quantities * Compact of the materials after disposal * Prepare a Contractors debris disposal plan with design drawings for each identified area With regards to plan, there would be only one disposal plan with small changes for each location. Contractors need to get approvals for specific design for each identified disposal area. 10.0 PENALTIES The biodiversity workshop on December 14 at Shimla has suggested stringent penalties for dumping of materials in locations other than the pre-identified locations. This need to be worked out to avoid clandestine disposal inthe midnight hours. There are several cases of dumping of material randomly in many locations. Himachal State Roads Project Environmental Management plan (Theog-Kharapatthar-Rohru section) APPENDIX 18: GUIDELINES FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF ROAD SECTION THROUGH FOREST AREAS 1.0 INTRODUCTION A Management Plan for the impacted or adjacent forest area is required for effective mitigation and enhancement measures during construction and operational phases of the project road. This will not allow any room for neglecting/avoiding of the implement able measures. This will also define responsibilities of various institutions in this regard. The project will trigger the World Bank Operational Policy OP 4.04 Natural Habitats. This requirement is the basis of the preparation of this document. The document addressed the issues relating to the Forest areas in the PlAs as well as immediately adjacent to the project road. The measures have addressed the design, construction and operational phases on the project. A plan for considering a mini biosphere plan (miniature) inthe region has been informally available from the Forest department. Incorporation of effective mitigation measures is therefore necessary and important. This will be based on the recommendations of the ongoing biodiversity studies. 2.0 STATUS OF THE WORK RELATING TO THE UP-GRADATION The actual construction work cannot be started until all environmental clearances are obtained from various agencies including World Bank. The environmental clearance also includes forest clearance basically for the required land from forest reserves. Application for both clearances has been routed through two different agencies Viz., PCB and State Forest Department. All these clearances are expected by the April 30, 2007. 3.0 FORESTS ALONG THIS CONTRACT The PIA area of the project (Ten kilometer on either side) contains vast areas of the reserved forests and beyond the reserved forest also, wildlife's are seen which include Leopards-also. Nevertheless, there are no wildlife areas within the PIA, therefore no special mitigation measures are required. The impacted forest sections are provided in table 1.0. This State Highway has a length of 80.684 km.

Specific details of this investigation are available. Himachal State Roads Project Environmental Management plan (Theog-Kharapatthar-Rohru section) An application is to be prepared in the prescribed application form and submiKted to the relevant DFOs in consultation with the Nodal officer of Forest Department at Head quarters at Shimla. This application will be verified by the respective DFOs. 5.0 COMPENSATORY AFFORESTATION PROGRAMME Compensatory a forestation will be carried out for land to be acquired against the loss of trees from the area to be acquired for road reserves. PWD will plant an area double to that of the land acquisition. 6.0 IMPACT MITIGATION AND ENHANCEMENT MEASURES This includes the legal requirement according to the (1) GOI forest laws and the (2) requirement according to the other laws. The GOI requirements are provided in the section 4.1 and the other requirements are provided in section 4.2. 6.1 COMPENSATORY AFFORESTATION PROGRAMME According to the forestation programme PWD has agreed to plant an area double to that of the land area to be acquired. This amount will be deposited with forest department. In addition, a number of impact mitigation and enhancement measures are required for the Forest area that will be impacted. The forest reserves adjacent to the project road do have high faunal value. For an approximate 10 Ha of forestland acquisition the following measures are proposed. 1) Considering this aspect, the project will not provide demarcation of the forest boundary with the Project road as it will be a barrier for the wildlife movement. 2) PWD is commiKted to compensate/plant trees according to the compensatory a forestation programme required according to the Forest conservation Act 1980 as provided in paragraph 4.1 3) Further, contractors are to set-up construction camps and plants (Hot mix, WMM plant etc) at least five km away from the forest boundary. In this regard; * Adequate training will be provided to contractors. * The labour force will not allowed to enter forest reserves for the purpose of hunting, fuel wood collection, nuts and fruit collection etc. * The debris and waste materials shall not be dumped inside /immediately out side forest areas and other water sources. * Debris shall be disposed off according to the contractors debris disposal plan * The source of construction water shall not be from the forest areas or immediately adjacent (within 2 km) to the forest areas. * The construction work within the forest stretches should adhere to all international environmental standards as laid out by the environmental management plan under the GOI/GOHPIWB rules, regulation and policies. During construction, the following measures will be taken in to consideration for effective implementation. * No construction camps or other polluting plants within 0.5 kilometres of the forest reserves. * No blasting shall be allowed during night time * Blasting should be silent blasting along the forest reserves * Blasting shall be confined to a particular time only. Best time would be 2-3 pm in day time. * Hunting is strictly prohibited. * No cutting of trees from the forest reserves for any purpose relating to the construction work nor shall the people associated with the project construction should enter the forest reserves other than any legal requirements. * Contractor should erect appropriate sign boards during construction Himachal State Roads Project Environmental Management plan (Theog-Kharapatthar-Rohru section) * After construction, the CSC/HPRIDC should advice the locations for erecting the signboards including advance signboards notifying the forest reserves. * Immediately after construction fencing should be carried out parallel to the forest reserves. * Any sign/indication of forest fires will be immediately notified to all considered agencies Immediately after construction, the contractors shall erect signboards and information boards close to the forest boundaries according to the Environmental Management Plan (EMP) prepared for the link. 6.2 NGO PARTICIPATION Participation of NGO may be useful for the smooth implementation of the project. During operational period During operational period erection of sign/information boards will be required as per the BIA studies. With regards to institutional responsibilities, the responsibilities the PWD and Forest Department need to coordinate the various requirements.
