INTRODUCTION 1. The detailed design (DED) of the subproject of the Second Greater Mekong Sub-Region (GMS) Tourism Infrastructure for Inclusive Growth Project (TIIG) that will improve solid waste management in Kep, Cambodia has been completed. The original Initial Environmental Examination (IEE) of the Feasibility Study (FS) of the subproject has been updated to meet the DED of the subproject and is reported separately. The environmental management plan (EMP) provided herein has been updated to support of the updated IEE. 2. The primary purpose of the EMP for the Kep subproject is twofold: a. Prescribe required mitigation and monitoring requirements for potential environmental impacts of the subproject that are identified by the updated IEE, institutional responsibilities for implementation of the EMP, and the cost of the EMP implementation; and b. Provide the needed guidance for contractors to prepare the Contractor’s Environmental Management Plan (CEMP) which they must include with their bids for construction package(s). 3. The EMP will be appended to contractor tender documents. The CEMPs will prescribe the mitigation and monitoring requirements for which contractors are responsible for their specific construction packages. As indicated above, the CEMPs will be reviewed and approved by the Project Management and Civil Engineering Support Consultant (PMCES) and Project Implementation Unit (PIU). Subproject components 4. The improvements to solid waste management in Kep consist of the following two main components: a. upgrading of existing Kep dumpsite to a modern sanitary landfill (SLF); and b. improvements to solid waste collection and management in Kep and vicinity. 5. The SLF will consist of the following main components: a. four lined waste cells to be constructed serially over time; b. a leachate collection and treatment system; c. a septage treatment system; d. a hazardous waste disposal cell; e. a materials recovery facility (MRF) to modernize waste recycling; f. office, utility/storage buildings, and onsite waste loaders/movers; and g. an upgraded 3.0km access road to SLF, to improve the existing dirt road by proper vertical alignment, concrete pavement, adequate side drains and cross drainage; 6. Improved solid waste collection will consist of: a. segregated recyclable waste collection created by a major O&M program and awareness campaign 2 b. new compactor and vacuum trucks; c. urban garbage bins of various sizes; d. expanded catchment for solid waste collection; e. new staff to work with operator (Kep Municipality) of SLF; and f. training and capacity development of existing and new solid waste management staff.
