Environmental and Social Assessment (ESA)
Private Investment and Digital Entrepreneurship (PRIDE) Project Bangladesh Economic Zones Authority (BEZA) Public Disclosure Authorized Environmental and Social Assessment (ESA) Package No. BEZA S-135 Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized Draft Report Public Disclosure Authorized Appendices to ESA Report Vol II February 2020 1 Appendix D: Assessment of Air Quality and Water Quality 1.1 Air Quality Introduction The BSMSN area will generate huge traffic after full development both for passenger and goods. There will be wide range of vehicles such as two and three axle/ multi axle trucks, bus, car, two-wheeler etc. These type of transportation system are major contributors to air pollution as these emit harmful pollutants which has adverse impact on environment. It is difficult to project air pollution as because pollutant enters the air by different amounts at different times and also varies with places. It is expected that air pollutants which might be discharged by the operations of tenant in the industrial and logistic area would be well controlled and managed by the tenants. For indicative assessment of air quality of the project area, projection has been done for some pollutants due to vehicle emission only. Forecast Area The areas examined to forecast is the project area (Zone 2A and 2B of BSMSN) shown in the Figure 1- 1. The project area is about 1450 acres. At present, it is observed that the concentration of some pollutants such as SO2, NOX, CO, PM2.5, PM10 and SPM are below the allowable limit as per DoE standard (Bangladesh). All the surveyed data are given in the baseline data collection section of main report. -

Factors Influencing Farmers' Awareness on Environmental Hazards Caused by Rice Monoculture
J. Bangladesh Agril. Univ. 2(1): 55-62,2004 . ISSN 1810-3030 Factors influencing farmers' awareness on environmental hazards caused by rice monoculture A.H. Chowdhury Lecturer, Department of Agricultural Extension Education, BAU, Mymensingh Abstract This purposive study was undertaken to examine the factors associated with farmers' awareness on environmental hazards caused by rice monoculture and ascertain the factors contribute to their awareness. Char ishardia village of Mymensingh sadar upazila and Tulatuli village of Sonagazi upazila, Feni were purposively selected as traditional and progressive village respectively. Data were collected from the randomly selected sample e.g. 96 farmers 48 form each village using a pre-tested structured interview schedule during March and July 2003. About half (54percent) of the respondents had high awareness on environmental hazards of rice monoculture compared to 30 percent low awareness. Farmers of progressive village had more average level of education, family size, training exposure, knowledge of diversified crop cultivation, cosmopoliteness, extension media contact, and innovativeness than those of traditional village. Out of ten selected characteristics, level of education, knowledge of diversified crop cultivation, cosmopoliteness and innovativeness were positively related with the awareness while family size was negatively related. Three factors namely knowledge of diversified crop cultivation, family size and level of education contributed significantly to the farmers' awareness considering both the villages while innovativeness together _with the former two factors mentioned contributed to the awareness considering progressive village. On the other hand, only two factors such as knowledge of diversified"crop cultivation and level of education contributed in predicting awareness of the farmers of traditional village. -
Importance of Making More Water Dams and Construction of Concretes River Embankment in Bangladesh to Protect Flood
IOSR Journal of Environmental Science, Toxicology and Food Technology (IOSR-JESTFT) e-ISSN: 2319-2402,p- ISSN: 2319-2399.Volume 14, Issue 11Ser. I (November 2020), PP 43-53 www.iosrjournals.org Importance of Making More Water Dams and Construction of Concretes River Embankment in Bangladesh to Protect Flood Asaduzzaman1*, Tao Wang2 1Master’s Student and Graduate Research Assistant, State Key Laboratory of Water Resources and Hydropower Engineering Science, Wuhan University, 430072, China 2Associate Professor, School of Water Resources and Hydropower Engineering, Wuhan University, 430072, China *Corresponding author. Mobile: +880-1836928714, +86-16-27013327. E-mail address: Asaduzzaman ([email protected]) Abstract Water is Bangladesh’s blessing and a curse. For nearly half the year, the monsoon rains cause the country’s four major rivers, the Jamuna, Padma, Brahmaputra and Meghna, and their tributaries to swell. Devastating floods are often the consequence. During the rest of the year, the dry season brings almost no rainfall, and droughts threaten the livelihoods of people and the health of the natural environment. Frequent and widespread flooding is a major problem in Bangladesh, which is a Rangpur, Bogra, Shirajganj, Rajbari Region. The problem is caused mainly by the Jamuna River and sudden coming floodwater from India through Brahmaputra whose erratic riverbank erosion has been leading to the general widening of channels and large-scale instability of riverbanks. Both the flooding and erosion in the river valley can be tackled only through an adaptive response that includes the use of structural protection systems such as making water dams and strong river embankment. A practicability study in this paper was led for riverbank protection works and an increasing number of dams are also discussed. -
Sensitive Space Along the India-Bangladesh Border
THE FRAGMENTS AND THEIR NATION(S): SENSITIVE SPACE ALONG THE INDIA-BANGLADESH BORDER A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Jason Cons January 2011 © 2011 Jason Cons THE FRAGMENTS AND THEIR NATION(S): SENSITIVE SPACE ALONG THE INDIA-BANGLADESH BORDER Jason Cons, Ph.D. Cornell University 2011 Borders are often described as “sensitive” areas—exceptional and dangerous spaces at once central to national imaginaries and at the limits of state control. Yet what does sensitivity mean for those who live in, and those who are in charge of regulating, such spaces? Why do these areas persist as spaces of conflict and confusion? This dissertation explores these questions in relation to a series of enclaves—sovereign pieces of India inside of Bangladesh and vice versa—clustered along the Northern India–Bangladesh border. In it, I develop the notion of “sensitivity” as an analytic for understanding spaces like the enclaves, showing how they are zones within which postcolonial fears about sovereignty, security, identity, and national survival become mapped onto territory. I outline the politics of sensitivity and the production of sensitive space through both historical and ethnographic research. First, I explore the ways that ambiguity and vague fears about security and citizenship emerge as forms of moral regulation within and in relation to the enclaves. Specifically, I interrogate the processes through which information about the enclaves is regulated and policed and the ambiguity, suspicion, and insecurity that emerge out of such practices. -
