EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report is the 2nd annual report on environmental safeguards compliance of the three (3) subprojects under the Southern Road Connectivity Project (SRCP), Loan No: 3027-SRI funded by Asian Development Bank (ADB). The reporting period is from May 2016 to April 2017. The three sub projects under SRCP are; 1. Ratmalana - Mirihana Road B389, and Moratuwa Piliyandala Road B295. CP 01, and total length is 4.69km 2. Kesbewa - Pokunuwita Road B084, and Kiriulapana - Godagama Road A004. CP 02, and total length is 16.45km 3. Mathugama - Southern Expressway B157. CP 03, and total length is 12.06km 4. CINEC Junction to Ambathale Junction Link road. CP04, Total length 1.83 km

CP 01 project is nearing at its’ completion; while the construction works of CP02 and CP03 project’s had already begun recently towards the latter part of 2016 and the project works are currently being progressed. The construction works of CP04 have still not started.

Due to the adverse weather conditions that prevailed, heavy showers and floods were experienced during the initial stage of the reporting period (April-May 2016). However, the weather was mostly dry throughout the latter part of the reporting period and was favourable for construction activities.

The baseline sampling of the selected environment parameters were collected and reports were submitted to the PMU by CP-02 and CP 03 respectively, while only operational period sampling is planned to be collected in CP-01.

Moreover, the contractors have obtained the relevant licences and approvals that were required to execute the construction activities.

No major environmental impacts were observed during the reporting period, because CP 01 road works are almost completed and the works of other projects’ have just started. Nevertheless, we have observed few shortcomings on safety matters which were however rectified then there.

1. INTRODUCTION

Sri Lanka is an island, blessed with lush green forest and year around temperate climate. It has hilly terrain in middle and south west part with surrounding flat law terrain. The South-West part of the country experiences more rainfall and defined as Wet Zone, and while other parts mostly North- West and South-West parts received less rainfall defined as Dry Zone of the country. For administrative purposes, the island has been divided into seven administrative divisions. The Central Government is situated in Colombo District, where the parliament is situated in. Considering the strength of each province in terms of economic and political, the Southern and the Western Provinces are ranked amongst the first level of administrative divisions of the island. These two provinces have vital economic development compared to the other five provinces of Sri Lanka. These two provinces contribute over 60% of the country’s GDP while other provinces contribute the rest. The southern Province's capital is Galle, while Colombo is the capital of the western province. Subsistence farming and fishing is the main source of income for the vast majority of the people of the Southern region but recently the economic activities witnessed some degree of diversification viz tourism and related economic activities such as hotels, boutiques, villas, handicrafts, travel guiding, and tour organizing. The majority of people are well educated and enjoy decent healthcare facilities and other common amenities. A vast majority of the people are keen to enter the newly created economic space through the Southern highway network which links all the strategically important townships along the way. These townships are poised to boost new economic development opportunities in the area which are also situated in close proximity to famous tourist destinations. In view thereof, the southern road connectivity project will help improve the connectivity between expressway network and the local transport network in southern region. Accordingly, it is proposed to develop 33.5 km of national highways linking with the three interchanges of the southern expressway.

The proposed development will not only improve the expressway connectivity but would also help manage the future traffic volumes. Southern Road connectivity project will improve five priority national highways which provide connectivity to three interchanges of Southern Expressway. The priority roads are selected according to the current road condition and capacity, traffic demands, and readiness for improvement. The road will be widened, upgraded and realigned as necessary to meet the projected traffic demand for the next 20 years. The pavement is designed for life up to 10 years that could be extended to 15-20 years with proper maintenance and excess axle load control. Bridges, drainage structures and culverts will be improved and replaced as required. Road safety audit will be incorporated into the engineering designs and monitored during construction period. The details of the selected roads are furnished below;

4.4. Changes in project scope The proposed scope of the project of Southern Highway to Mathugama has been amended as follows. Mathugama-Southern Highway (B157), the initial approvals were granted to carry out about the 12 km length to 32 km post from 40 km post. The two kms length has been excluded from 30km to 32km, as 2Km length has already been developed through an another project. Hence, there has been a reduction in the road length from 12.37 km to 10.37km.

5. SUMMARY OF ENVIRONMENTAL MITIGATIONS AND

COMPENSATION MEASURES

Based on the approved EMAP, the sub-project contractor has to periodically carry out the monitoring of selected environmental parameters such as ambient air quality, noise levels, water quality and vibration levels. The contractor should monitor the above parameters during the pre-construction (Baseline), construction and post- construction or operation period of each project road. In order to prevent lowering of green cover along the road due removal of existing tree/bushes, the contractor is obligated to implement suitable tree planting programs along the road or within the project road area. In additionally the contractor should rehabilitate their all material sourcing locations, yard and disposal sites, immediate after the completion of the project activity.

5.1. Moratuwa - Piliyandala (B295) and Ratmalana - Mirihana (B389) 4.64 km. Collection of baseline and the construction stage data have been completed. Data was collected by the approved sub-contractor of Industrial Technology Institute (ITI) during 2015-2016. The results have been submitted to the PMU of the RDA. The operation stage data will be collected as immediate after the road section completed and handed over to the client. During the construction period of B295 road, all the readings of water samples found to be similar to baseline values but TSS was less and E Coli had increased not due to construction activities. B 389 when compared with baseline values, pH was at neutral range, TSS decreases and E coli level has increased, not due to construction activities. It was identified that the domestic waste water discharged into surface water body was coursed to increase E-coli in the area. According to the noise measurement test results of B 295, allowable noise level is 75dB(A). Except at B389 in front of Mahamaya School (80dB(A) and at B295 near Indra Traders, Piliyandala (76dB(A), noise level all the other locations were within allowable levels.

Except for location, Kospalana Junction, all the parameters of other locations were well below the ambient air quality standards. TSPM level is high at Kospalana Junction, this may due to vehicular movement of the road. As per the given vibration data, all the measured levels (baseline data) are within the standard level. The vibration levels have not exceeded with normal vehicle movement of these two road sections. A detail of observed data during the pre-construction period is given in Appendix 02.

Considering about the awareness programs, there were nine (09) programs which are related to HIV/AIDS, Human Trafficking, and Environmental awareness held by the project staff during the reporting period as follows.

5.2. Kesbewa - Pokunuwita Road (B084) and Kirulapana - Godagama Road (A004 Collection of baseline data has been completed and this activity was done under the approved sub-contractor. The Industrial Technology Institute (ITI) was selected for the above purpose and it was conducted in December 2016. The results have been submitted to the PMU of the RDA. The construction stage data will be

25 collected within six month intervals and next sampling will be conducted on June 2017. According to the test results of water quality, pH is within standard levels, while ground water sample did not fall within the stipulated levels. pH is acidic (6.2), standard in 6.5-8.5 range. pH acidic due to soil nature. This type of soil contains the Humic acid. All six samples of “BoD5” levels are within standard level. However all the locations’ day time background noise level was higher than the permissible level of the area and total suspended particulate matter (TSPM) of air quality monitoring was lower than the permissible level of 450µg/m3 of the all sampled locations. During the reporting period, there was one (01) program on HIV/AIDS conducted by MOH office staff with coordinating of the National HIV/AIDS Control Unit of Colombo. The program was useful to improve the knowledge of the construction workers as well as community members of project area.

Similarly, the contractor has conducted two road safety awareness programs with participation of Police traffic control units within the area. The details of conducted programs are as follows,

6. SUMMARY OF ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING

6.1 Moratuwa - Piliyandala (B295) and Ratmalana - Mirihana (B389) 4.64 km Collecting of environmental parameters such as Air quality, water quality, Noise and Vibration levels for Pre-construction (baseline data) and the construction stage had been observed. The task was assigned by the approved sub-contractor of government of Sri Lanka. The project road and the material sourcing locations were also subjected to monitoring and the following table shows the data collecting activity of the CP 01 project. Table 6:1 The dates of environmental parameters monitoring Parameter Baseline Construction stage I Construction stage II Water 06/10/2015 30/06/2016 21/09/2016 Air 06/10/2015 30/06/2016 12/09/2016 Noise 13/10/2015 28/04/2016 02/08/2016 Vibration 13/10/2015 14/06/2016 04/08/2016

The detail of the observed data that was during the pre-construction period is given in Appendix 2. According to the observed water quality data of B295 road, it was similar to baseline values, but TSS was low and E-coli had increased during the construction stage I and II data. In B 389 road, when compared with baseline values, pH in neutralize range, TSS decreased and E-coli had increased during construction stage II data. Considering about the air quality results, baseline measurements were carried out with 8hr average but during the construction stage I and II data measurements were carried out with 1hr average. All locations in both roads of B295 and B 389, the TSPM (1hr) was higher than the allowable level (500μg/m3) during the construction stage II. The noise level of B295 road, the measured levels of two locations (Kospalana and Suwarapola) were higher than the

32 baseline values during the construction stage I and II, but lower than the allowable level(75dB(A). At Piliyandala town, measured levels were lower than baseline values and lower than allowable level. B 389 road locations, all three locations during construction stage I and II measured locations are lower than baseline values and lower than the allowable level (75dB) 6.2 Kesbewa - Pokunuwita Road (B084) and Kirulapana - Godagama Road (A004). Baseline data collection for the pre-construction stage of the project roads, i.e. the Ambient Air, Water, Noise and Vibration levels, were collected before commencement of the main construction activities. The data was collected in December 2016, and the construction stage data will be collected in June 2017.

The detail of the observed data that was during the pre-construction period is given in Appendix 2. Considering about the water quality results, the pH values were within the standard for all surface water samples, but ground water samples’ pH was 6.2, which was not within standard. All eight locations of air quality samples of B084 , A004 and all plant sites baseline values of TSPM (3hr average) was lower than the permissible level of 450/μg/m3. According to noise levels, most of the locations background level is higher than the permissible level of the area and all existing measured noise levels are higher than the permissible levels at day times. These may due to existing traffic nature. The results of the vibration levels of the project area, maximum permissible levels (1.0, 2.0, or 4.0) of interim vibration standards have not become exceeded with the vehicle movements of these road sections.

6.3 Southern Expressway - Matugama Road (B157) Similarly, the baseline data collection of the project road was collected before commencement of the main construction activities. The observer of the event was Industrial Technological Institute (ITI). During the sampling, water, air, noise and vibrations were sampled along the project road as well as selected material sourcing location of the contractor.

The detail of the observed data that was during the pre-construction period is given in Appendix 2. According to the measured water quality of all three locations pH, BOD and grease content are within standard. All three locations of air quality samples, TSPM 3hr average is lower than the permissible level of 450/ug/m3. The all existing measured noise levels are higher than the permissible level of day time, this may due to traffic noise. Considering about the vibration levels, permissible level of interim standards have not been exceeded with vehicular movement of this road section. 6.4 Compliance Inspections

During the reporting period, road construction works were progressing in all subprojects while CP-01 works were nearing completion. Monthly field inspections were carried out by Environmental Specialists of the Employer, PIC and Contractor. Appendix 03, summarizes the activities carried out in CP-01, CP-02 and CP-03 Sub-projects, their impacts to the environment (as observed during each field visit mainly by the ES of PIC), suggestions given by ES to mitigate, avoid or minimize the adverse impacts, effectiveness of the migration measures adopted, and any further action needed.

Although the contractors have been placed in good category based on the EMP implemented, their traffic and safety measures should be upgraded further due to high traffic congestion in the project area, especially in the morning and evening time at CP01 and CP02. The detailed compliance to EMP is provided in Appendix 04 and their activities are separately discussed as follows.

Considering the total number of 19 mitigation actions to be complied in CP 01 project, 13 actions have been fully complied; while six (6) mitigation actions are partly complied. The main reasons for the partly complied actions were; the activities will be implemented after handed over the road sections. Other than these, set of all other mitigation actions were completed by the contractor.

Because of newly started projects, all the mitigation actions that are described in EMP should be implemented or complied by the contractors of CP02 and CP 03.

The monthly payment item for EMP requirements is provided in the contract. The payment is released after receiving of the recommendations based on the monthly inspections and observations by employer and the PIC Environmental Specialists (ES) with participation of the contractor’s Environmental Officer (EO).

According to approved payment percentage of the EMP payments (Table 6.2), the contactor has obtained 75% of average payment values base on the EMP implementation activities done during each month.

The following table shows the monthly payment percentages that had been made to the contractor based on the EMP implementation in the project.

7. PUBLIC COMPLAINTS

The Grievance Redress Committees (GRCs) have been established to look into the public complaints regarding the social and environmental impacts during the period of construction works for every sub project. The GRC considers the problems that could not be solved directly by the Employer, Consultant and Contractor. The GRC committee holds meetings with all responsible parties to yield the best solutions for the problems.

The PMU and Divisional Secretary arrange the GRC meetings upon receiving of public complaints to solve the problems. Considering the number of complaints received so far, there were two GRC meetings conducted at Divisional Secretariat Office in Kesbewa to discuss the received 04 complaints regarding to CP01 project and these problems have been solved.

The above mentioned GRC meetings were conducted at Divisional Secretariats office in Kesbewa respectively on 23rd December 2016 and January 2017.

Figure: 2.1 The GRC Committee members including chief incumbent of Buddhist temple, Project Engineer of CP01, Divisional Secretariat (Kesbewa) and Resettlement Assistant were chaired and discussing about the public complains.

Further, the employer, the consultant and the Contractor attend the public complains which are received in written form and through the electronic media (E- mail, Fax and Telephone). Moreover, all complains received have been listed out and discuss in the monthly progress meetings. The summary of the received complaints up to 31st March 2016 are given in Appendix 05. There were 99 complains have received from both B295 and B389 roads so far, most of them are requesting of cover slabs and proper access to their hoses and business premises. Among them 70 complains were already solved and others are being completed by involving the related line agenesis. Some of the complaints await to insurance claims and those cases will be completed immediately after the claim area received.

Likewise, there were 31 complaints received so far from CP 02 project, among these complaints 15 have been solved, while 13 are pending and, 3 are progressing. In the same way there were 44 complaints received up to 31st march 2016 from CP 03 project, while 15 complaints are already solved, 18 complaints are being progressed and 11 complaints are pending.

In the monthly environmental meetings progress, they draw their attention and discuss about the public complaints.

In addition, small scale Community Committee Meeting had been conducted by CP 01 project (mainly by appointed Environmental Officer of the project) aiming to address the public disturbances while construction activities are progressing.

It was suggested to conduct the Community Committee Based Organizations if necessary in the project affected areas in CP02 and CP 03 (public and private authorities and personnel) which will address the problems regarding the constructions.

9. CONCLUSION

The guidelines for Environmental protection and pollution control for construction activities are clearly defined in the EMP for all sub-projects. In addition, the Contractor’s EMAP provides further specific time lines & schedules to protect project impacted areas by observing the selected environmental parameters (i.e. Water, Air, Noise & Vibration) to ensure that the surround environment is protected. Firstly, the completed project road of CP 01 was successfully implemented their proposed mitigation measures that were proposed by employer and the consultant during their site observations. The issues at the contractor’s Asphalt plant were satisfactorily solved, but he had taken a long period of time to rectify these issues. Therefore, the all contractors must be taken the proposed remedial actions as soon as possible because these impacts are irreversible. It was revealed that the contractor’s quick response/actions are very important when addressing the construction related environmental problems. Secondly, the weekly site inspections are carried by the Contractor, while Monthly Inspections are continued by the Environmental Specialists of the Employer and PIC. The monthly environmental meetings conduct regularly and the contractor’s participation was satisfied. Site inspection will be regularly carried out to ensure that Environmental impacts are being adequately mitigated and to ensure continuation of compliance with stationary regulations as required by laws and accepted in the EMP. The Contractor is being regularly guided and instructed to pay attention to environmental issues and adhere to the provisions of EMP and his own EMAP. The ongoing projects (CP02 and CP 03) environmental monitoring activities are being progressed as proposed scheduled while final stage monitoring activity will be completed by CP 01. Finally, the overall status of implementation of environment safeguards under the project is satisfactory.
