1.6 INSTITUTIONAL ASSESSMENT

The ID team assessed the institutional capacity of TMA Attock for accomplishment of mandatory functions as per PLGO 2001 in general and of (I&S) office for execution of proposed slaughter house and cattle market sub-projects in particular. Based on discussions with the respective TMA staff, the FAR includes the proposed Performance Improvement Plan (PIP) for each TMA office.

1.6.1 Tehsil Nazim A. Profile Qazi Khalid Mehmoood has been elected Tehsil Nazim, Attock for the second time. He is a graduate of Gordon College Rawalpindi. Qazi Khalid belongs to Hazro. He started his political career in early 1970s. He was first elected Member Union Council Badar Khan. Afterwards, he was twice elected as chairman of Badar Khan Union Council. His political career got a big jump when he became vice-chairman of District Council, Attock. Last year he was re-elected as Tehsil Nazim Attock which testifies to his good standing with people of his area.

B. Vision PMDFC team held a meeting with the Tehsil Nazim in his office. The Tehsil Nazim identified following 7 areas of concern and priority for Tehsil Attock:

1. Cattle Market : It is located in the hub of city activities and causes lot of problems for the citizens. Therefore it needs to be shifted.

2. Slaughter House: Existing slaughter house has insufficient area and unhygienic conditions. TMA has decided to shift the slaughter house to a new place that spreads over an area of 150 kanal. Land acquisition case is lying with Board of Revenue, Government of the Punjab. The Tehsil Nazim is hopeful that the case will be decided in favour of his Tehsil.

6

3. Vegetable Market (Sabzi Mandi): It is a cause of congestion and discomfort for the citizens of Attock. The Tehsil Nazim is desirous of shifting the Sabzi Mandi but is still in the process identifying a suitable piece of land for it.

4. General Bus Stand: The Tehsil Nazim declared shifting of Bus Stand as one of his top priorities as it was disturbing peaceful city life. In his opinion, shifting of bus stand outside the city in a planned manner will solve this problem for the next 20 years. He was aware of the fact that citizens might face some problems if the bus stand moves far out of the city.

5. Roads: All municipal roads are interlinked but their condition is not good. The Nazim expressed his deep desire for re-construction and repair of roads.

6. Encroachment: As a well-planned colonial city, Attock remained free from all kinds of encroachments till recently. The Nazim has issued standing orders to keep city free of encroachments

7. Water Supply: Tehsil Attock is gifted with abundance of water. Though construction of Ghazi Barotha dam has led to a fall in water level but water is still easily available. Contamination of water due to mix up with sewerage lines is an alarming problem these days. Daily sampling of water from different areas of city and subsequent testing reveals contamination. Source of this contamination can not be traced without a comprehensive survey of all the water and sewerage lines of Attock Tehsil. The Nazim opined that there exists a dire need to replace all the lines. He along with the District Nazim has taken up the matter with the provincial government.

1.6.2 TMO Office TMO is the focal person in TMA. He is also the Principal Accounting officer of TMA. His responsibilities include coordination of activities of all Tehsil offices and execution of sanctioned policies of TMA. During the field appraisal, ID team discussed the following issues related to the office of TMO:

A. Complaint Cell The complaint cell is located next to the main entrance of TMA office. It gives people easy access. Chief Officer is the incharge of complaint cell and a clerk is on duty during office hours. The complaint cell is maintaining four registers to record the complaints. These are Cleanliness, Water Supply, Street Light and Roads/Streets/Parks registers. Each complaint is recorded in the relevant register and given a complaint number. Afterwards the complaint is forwarded to the concerned section. The number assigned to each complaint helps keep track of complaints. The Chief Officer inspects the register daily. In case of non-resolution of a complaint within three days, the Chief Officer sends a reminder in writing to the concerned office. TMA staff told that they normally receive complaints verbally and record the same in the Complaint Register. Telephone number of the complaint cell was publicized through local cable operators to make people aware of their right to complaint. Resolved complaints are reported to the Tehsil Nazim on monthly basis.

B. Dissemination of Information TMA has adopted following measures for dissemination of information to the citizens:

1. An innovative information dissemination method has been adopted by TMA Attock. Local cable channels are used for publicity. Advertisements regarding registering of

7

complaints were run on cable for a period of three months. The telephone numbers of the complaint cell are publicized and it was observed that number of complaints received has increased to a considerable extent. 2. Notice Board is another source of information for public. Notices deemed necessary for public information and guidance regarding different issues are regularly placed on the notice board. 3. TMA arranges for announcement of contracts and tenders in national newspapers, through Director General Public Relations. 4. TMA issues press releases to local print media when meeting of Tehsil Council is scheduled. 5. “Munadi” (publicity/announcement) through loudspeakers on a van is prevalent in Attock.

TMA does not have a website to display its achievements, goals, infrastructure development and public response or feedback. Like other TMAs, there is no reporting system between the TMA and the Provincial Government. Annual budget is the only way of information forwarded to Provincial Government. Because of its inadequate institutional capacity, TMA needs constant overseeing by the Provincial Government. A watchful Provincial Government can ensure better performance from TMAs. The monitoring system for Provincial Government under PMSIP shall be a great help in this regard.

C Performance Management System PMDFC is introducing Performance Management System in Year – I TMAs. Core indicators for municipal services provided by TMAs have already been selected in consultation with TMAs through workshops and meetings. Baseline values of the core indicators are being collected by TMAs. ID team met with ATO, I&S Nadeem Feroz, sub-engineer I&S and sanitary inspector to see the progress of data collection. Discussions on data collection procedures were held as TMA staff had few questions about some of the indicators.

D Community Driven Development A very important feature of the Devolution Plan is the participation and involvement of non- elected citizens in the development process in their respective local areas. The institutional arrangements for the attainment of this objective are provided through CCBs. Section 98 of PLGO 2001, encompasses the objectives, composition and scope of CCBs as under: “In every local area, groups of non-elected citizens may, through voluntary, proactive and self- help initiatives, set up any number of Citizen Community Boards. Such Citizen Community Boards shall be set up for the purposes of, inter alia, energizing the community for development and improvement in service delivery, development and management of a new or existing public facility, identification of development and municipal needs, mobilization of stakeholders for community involvement in the improvement and maintenance of facilities. …………..” A TMA is bound to set apart 25% of its development budget for allocation to CCBs. The unspent CCB allocation in a financial year cannot be expended on any other development or non-development activity. The unspent CCB balance continues to accumulate and becomes available for CCB allocation in the next financial year. A TMA can provide up to 80% funds for a CCB scheme and the remaining 20% are to be arranged by CCB itself.

In spite of this convenient availability funds for development, citizens are not making best of this opportunity. Apart from reluctance of citizens to provide 20% matching funds, the laborious and cumbersome CCB rules and non-proactive attitude of the concerned local government staff are partly responsible for substantial under-utilization of development funds available through this innovative, participatory, pro-citizens development initiative.

8

The Government of the Punjab, being cognizant of this issue, has taken up the matter with National Reconstruction Bureau (NRB). PMDFC shall also facilitate the citizens in PIMSIP partner TMAs to take up CCB schemes through its Social Mobilization Consultant.

E Monitoring Committees Section 67 of PLGO lays down the functioning and powers of the Tehsil Council. Clause (vii) to clause (xii) of the same section deal with the election/constitution of monitoring committees as under:

(vii) to elect Monitoring Committees of the Tehsil Council to monitor the working of the Tehsil Municipal Administration and the provision of municipal services; (viii) to ensure that Monitoring Committees perform their functions in a non- intrusive manner without interfering in the day to day working of the relevant offices of the Tehsil Municipal Administration and do not assume a command and control role; (ix) to review the reports of the Monitoring Committees and make appropriate recommendations to the Tehsil Nazim; (x) to elect a Code of Conduct Committee which shall be responsible for enforcing the code of conduct for regulating the conduct of the members of the Tehsil Council; (xi) to elect an Insaaf Committee for interaction with the Insaaf Committee of the Zila Council (xii) to elect Tehsil Accounts Committee to review the audit reports of the accounts of Tehsil Municipal Administration.

Tehsil Council Attock has constituted all above mentioned Monitoring Committees.

Other than these mandatory monitoring committees, the following have also been formed to assist the house and improve the working of TMA:

1. Purchase and Auction Committee. This committee has five members. 2. Jail and Hospital Welfare Committee. It comprises seven members. Regular inspections of jail and hospital are conducted by members. The members check the quality of food and medicines. Feedback from citizens is also taken on regular basis. All feedback is verbal. Visits to jail and hospital are scheduled on fortnightly basis. 3. Education Committee. This committee consists of six members. Attendance of teachers and quality of education is inspected from time to time. The Convener reports to the district government which then orders EDO education for appropriate action. 4. Human Rights Committee for Women: It has five lady members. It was formed on 23rd January, 2006. No meeting has been held so far. 5. Water Supply and Street Light Committee. Five citizens from CO unit Attock are its members. It meets at least twice a month. It can incur expenditure up to Rs. 25,000/- with the approval of Tehsil Nazim. For amount higher than that, matter goes to purchase and auction committee. 6. Works Sub-committee has five members. It prepares ADP and meets twice a year.

The proceedings of each meeting are regularly kept and maintained by the Tehsil Council Officer. Convener of each committee is elected amongst the members of the committee through voting.

National Commission for Human Development (NCHD) organized a 2 day capacity building training of Tehsil Monitoring Committees in the last week of May, 2006. Following committees were formed as a result of this training:

1. Monitoring Committee Infrastructure and Services (TO I&S). It has six members. 2. Monitoring Committee Planning and Coordination (TO P&C, Building Section). It has six members. 3. Monitoring Committee Finance (TO F&P). It has six members. 4. Monitoring Committee Regulation (TO R). It has seven members.

F Trainings Field assessment of TMA Attock reveals that there is a dearth of I.T skills in the TMA. The staff in Engineering, Finance, Planning and Regulation offices was never offered I.T. training. PMDFC is of the view that I.T training for TMA staff will be an important step towards the computerization of office records and will result in efficient office automation systems. Analysis of data will become easy and errors in record keeping would decrease to a considerable extent. Moreover, I.T skills are also essential for PMSIP interventions like Financial Management System, Complaint Tracking System etc.

PMDFC aims to develop the human resource base of its partner TMAs and considers improvement in service delivery inconceivable without a strong human resource base. TMA staff with right skills set can be expected to provide timely, cost-effective and reliable services to citizens.

In view of the above and on the request of TMA Attock for basic computer training for its staff, PMDFC has funded computer training for the following TMA staff, at a local Computer Training Institute:

1.7

The office of TO (P) is very crucial office in TMA setup. It has been allocated the following business:

1. Prepare spatial plans for the tehsil/town in collaboration with Union Administrations including plans for land use and zoning;

2. Exercise control over land use, land sub-division, land development and zoning by public and private sectors for any purpose including agriculture, industry, commerce, markets, shopping and other employment centres, residential, recreation, parks, entertainment, passenger and transport freight ,and transit stations;

3. Building control;

4. Execute and manage development plans;

5. Develop and manage schemes including site development in collaboration with District Governments and Union Administrations;

6. Compile information provided by Union and Village Councils of prioritized projects in the tehsil/town; and

7. Maintain municipal records and archives.

Following Table compares the available posts and filled posts.

Detail of Posts in planning office (TMA-Attock)

S.No Post Sanctioned Strength Existing Strength 1 TO (P&C) 1 1 2 Sub Engineer 1 1 3 Senior Clerk 1 1 4 Building Inspector 1 1 5 Junior Clerk 1 1 6 Naib Qasid 1 1 7 Tracer 1 - 8 Driver 1 - 9 Fero Khallasi 1 1

As is evident from the above table, most of the important posts are filled though without tracer or a qualified draftsman any mapping activities would be having problems. TO (P) is a qualified town planner, having a Bachelor’s degree in City & Regional Planning and is a Local Government employee. He is a member of provincial scrutiny committee of by-laws constituted by Secretary Local Government. All records are manually maintained and no analysis of data is performed.

Town Planning Attock being an old planned colonial town, its roads were designed to be at least 60 feet wide and streets at least 20 feet. Presently, Attock comprises of three UC’s. UC – 2 is the oldest one created in 1905 and is planned one with distinct blocks numbered from A to R. There is space allocated at centre of each block for commercial and recreational purposes. The roads are mostly wide in this block. UC-3 is partially planned. UC-1 is the most recently developed and is

11

separated by the other two UCs by a railway line that passes east-west of the town. UC-I has two planned colonies namely Peoples Colony and Dar-ul-Salam.

Mapping TMA has a base map that needs updation. They also have other maps having utilities marked. TMA have a Tehsil map that also includes areas that now comprise TMA Hazro. ID component, PMDFC has started capacity building of TMA Attock in this regard with the procurement of GIS image of Attock. To date, vectorization of image has been completed and vectorized road and parcel maps being developed. Base maps of road network, water supply, SWM would be developed in next stage. As mentioned below in PMDFC’S intervention of preparation of an action plan for Attock, data collection and analysis would be completed in Attock. The exercise would enable TMA staff to use state of art GIS technology and get first hand experience with techniques of data collection and data analysis.

There is lack of coordination between Planning office and I & S office and there is no data sharing between these two offices. There is a draftsman in I & S office who had undertaken Auto Cad training.

Building Control For building control activities residents submit requests with a plan and other requisite documents. Building inspector visits the site and checks if the plan is according to the site/ location. Building by-laws have been developed but not notified. There is a requirement that residents after completion of their buildings get a completion certificate from planning office, TMA, but it rarely occurs. There is need of such mechanism that residents have to get the completion certificate. All the records are manually maintained.

TMA had formulated Building and Land Use Control and Dangerous buildings by-laws after completion of all codel formalities and got approval from Tehsil Council vide resolution No. 24, session held on 30-07-2002. Site development Schemes/Housing Schemes by-laws 2002 were notified in 2002 but now Government of Punjab has notified Site Development Schemes rules 2004 that are being followed. Building application fee for residential plans and commercial plans is Rs. 2.00 and Rs. 5.00 per sq feet respectively.

Status of plans by Planning Office:

One of the functions of TO (P) in PLGO is managing coordination activities and CCB schemes; liaison with neighbouring Tehsils and Union/Village councils; support to Union /Village councils. At the moment, progress in collection/analysis of data or coordination in development activities in Tehsil is quite slow.

Program and Budget No

During the discussions it was revealed that the Planning office needed detailed information on the characteristics and requirements of all land uses, physical, spatial and economic activities that might guide the future shape of the city. But this requires up to date maps. Maps like land use and services are not available with the TMA and the one available is obsolete and outdated. Topographical maps that are essential for efficient infrastructure and city management are non existent.

Plan formulation: Development plans are made without taking into account real data and actual needs. The absence of data reflects in uninformed prioritisation of plans. Moreover, ignorance of ground realities results in piecemeal development.

After detailed discussion with TO (P) staff, the following Performance Improvement Plan is proposed for the office of TO (P) in TMA Attock. These interventions are envisioned for the first year and subsequent capacity interventions would be initiated after progress of capacity projects in the TMA subject to the continuous eligibility of TMA for PMSIP funding.

specified in Eighth Schedule. There is an incentive package in the ticketing system. Twenty- five percent of fine proceeds go to the collecting inspector; 25 % to Regulation office maintenance and remaining 50 % to TMA. .The same insectives have been provided to inspectors from fine proceeds imposed by courts in offences specified in Fourth Schedule. TMA Attock has started ticketing from June 3, 2006. First day they collected Rs 15,200 under ticketing.

In consultation with TO (R) staff, the following Performance Improvement Plan is proposed for the office of TO (Regulation) in TMA Attock. These interventions are envisioned for the first year and subsequent capacity interventions would be initiated after progress of capacity projects in the TMA.

1.9 TO (F) OFFICE

TO (F) is a BPS 17 officer from Local Council Service. He has been with the local government for the last 18 years. He holds Masters' in Economics degree. Prior to this job, he was Chief Officer at Chakwal and Jhelum. TMA is currently maintaining its books of account manually. There is a scope for computerized accounting software which will enhance the working capacity of TMA. TO (F) office is currently maintaining its budget in MS Word which causes discrepancies in the figures. If the staff is properly trained in MS Excel that will reduce the number of errors in the budget and will give accuracy in the budget figures.

Law requires that no local govt. can pass a deficit budget. The intention is to provide built in mechanism for fiscal efficiency. This constraint forces a local govt. to either raise revenue or to economize in expenditure or to do both. In general a local govt. has to remain within its fiscal limits. Position in respect of TMA is as under:

2002-03 2003-04 2004-05 2005-06

Budget Position Surplus Surplus Surplus Surplus

Budget formulation, execution and monitoring:

TMA staff is conversant with the budget formulation process but relies predominantly on the historical data for future projections. Reportedly, the staff faces no problems in the execution of budgets. Monitoring committees are in place and audit is conducted. More authenticity and transparency needs to be added by introducing printed budget copies.

TMA Attock is at number four in the ranking of the TMAs which were included for the first year in PMSIP.

2 FIELD APPRAISAL REPORT FOR CONSTRUCTION OF SLAUGHTER HOUSE- ATTOCK

2.1 RATIONALE OF THE SUB-PROJECT

2.1.1 Existing Slaughter House The existing land available for slaughter house is 102’ x 90’ (9180 Sq. ft.) containing two sheds of 98’ x 17’ (1666 Sq. ft.). Only large animals are being slaughtered in one hall whereas the second hall is abandoned due to inadequate facilities. Approach road is also in a very bad shape and it is not even paved and consists of muddy track. The lighting facilities are also not sufficient to carry out slaughtering during night or early morning. One single phase electric connection is available.

2.1.2 Water Supply System Water is available from TMA public water supply system by two connections of ¾” dia pipeline having length of 200 ft and water merely reaches fibre glass tank placed at roof. The capacity of this fibre glass water tank is only 1000 gallons which is extremely insufficient. Most of illegal slaughtering is also due to shortage of water. Ground storage tank of 8´x 8´x 6´is also not sufficient to meet the demand for cleaning of slaughtered animals and general washing of ambient area.

2.1.3 Drainage System

Effluent disposal is not connected to sewerage system and is discharged into open fields without any treatment causing very unhygienic conditions.

2.1.4 Existing Establishment

The veterinary doctor is on honorarium of Rs. 800/- per month which is extremely low. Due to this reason he is not available during slaughtering and he has deputed a dispenser to check the health of animals. There is one supervisor who is under sanitation staff but deputed there to look after the slaughter house.

2.1.5 Operation and Maintenance

The existing system is being maintained by TMA Attock out of its own resources as the fee of slaughtering is very nominal. Fee for small animals = Rs. 5/ animal Fee for big animals = Rs. 10/ animal The total revenue generation using these charges and with only ten big animals per day comes to 10 x 10 x 264 = 26,400 per annum.

2.2 NEEDS

Due to inadequate facilities only ten (10) big animals are being slaughtered here whereas a large number of slaughtering is being done by public at their own. It is evident that this slaughtering is being done by neglecting the health standards. Total number of animals slaughtered in town is estimated to be thirty (30) big and ninety (90) small animals. Hence it is utmost need of the town that all slaughtering should be done in slaughter house which is possible only after construction of a good slaughter house with adequate facilities.

20

2.3 PROBLEMS

At present people are forced to purchase unhygienic meat which is slaughtered illegally. During site visit under aged (4 to 6 months) animals’ meat is observed at almost every mutton/beef shop because there is no check by TMA staff. The butchers avoid going to slaughter house due to inadequate facilities and have a solid reason for illegal slaughtering. The approach road to slaughter house is very narrow and bumpy and in populated area having a boy school close to it. Due to inadequate disposal of solid waste and effluents mosquitoes and flies breeding is enormously high. People of this area specially school children face difficulties due to mosquitoes and flies. Hence shifting of this slaughter house is justified and needs immediate attention.

2.4 IMPROVEMENT REQUIRED WITH JUSTIFICATION

2.4.1 Shifting of Slaughter House to New Location

As already mentioned, the existing slaughter house is located in populated area. The approach road is also in a very bad shape. Residents of this area are demanding shifting of this slaughter house. It is therefore, proposed to shift existing slaughter house outside Attock City at about 3 km on Attock-Fateh Jang road. This site has barren land on three sides and some houses at one side almost 500 ft away and hence ideal for slaughter house.

2.4.2 Deployment of Proper Staff

At present no staff is available to TMA for slaughter house. A proper establishment is proposed to carry out the operation of new slaughter house as per standard practices and criteria.

2.4.3 Adequate Water Supply

At present water availability is not sufficient to meet the requirement of slaughter house. Storage capacity is also low. As per standard practices 1000 litres of water is required for slaughtering of large animals and 100 litres for small animals. A new cattle market is also being proposed just adjacent to the new slaughter house. Keeping this thing in mind a tube well of 0.5 cusec has been proposed along with an over head storage tank with the capacity of 20,000 gallons to meet the water demand for both slaughter house and cattle market.

2.4.4 Waste Water Treatment

Presently waste water is being discharged to open fields without any treatment, thereby causing serious environmental problems. Three oxidation ponds have been proposed for treatment of waste water with five days detention time. After treatment this water will be discharged into existing open drains passing near the proposed site which ultimately goes into Harrow River. This will prevent contamination of surface as well as ground water.

2.4.5 Provision of Boiler

In winter season, it is not possible to clean the floor as well as clothes with cold water. A boiler of sufficient capacity is proposed to sterilize the floor in cold weather.

21

2.4.6 Solid Waste Management System

At present there is no solid waste management system for slaughter house which provides very favorable environment for flies and mosquitoes. This is a source of nuisance for residents as well school children close to this slaughter house. To avoid these problems a proper solid waste management system is proposed to carry out the solid waste to land fill site.

2.5 THE SUB-PROJECT

2.5.1 Description

It is proposed to shift the existing slaughter house to a new and suitable location. It will involve the following components.

ƒ Construction of approach road. ƒ Provision of slaughtering and skinning halls separately for small and large animals. ƒ Installation of tube well and construction of over head reservoir. ƒ Adequate parking area. ƒ Doctor’s room with dispensing facilities. ƒ Boiler room ƒ Administration block. ƒ Hide/Skin storage and sale hall. ƒ Solid waste management system ƒ Waste water treatment system.

2.5.2 Proposed Design

The slaughter house has been designed with a planning horizon of 20 years. This can meet the demand up to 2026 by increasing the working time gradually. Presently it is based on four hours working and capacity of the proposed slaughter house would be about 200 small animals and 50 big animals up to the year 2016.

Time considered for slaughtering and skinning of small animals= 1 hour

Time considered for slaughtering and skinning of large animals = 2 hours

An area of 5’x 5’ is assumed for slaughtering and skinning of small animals whereas 7’x7’ area is considered for large animals. Based on these parameters the total area required comes to 30’ x 40’ (1200 Sq. ft) separately for small and large animals. The plan of proposed slaughter house is shown at Annexure-B and in the perspective of Attock City at Annexure-C.

2.5.3 Operation and Maintenance Implications

The existing fee for slaughtering is too low and needs immediate increase which can only be done once the adequate facilities are provided. It is proposed to implement the following rates once the project is completed.

Fee for small animals = Rs. 50/animal Fee for big animals = Rs. 100/ animal

2.5.4 Environmental and Social Issues

2.5.4.1 Background The population of TMA Attock has grown rapidly in recent years. The nutrition needs of the population have multiplied and efforts are being made by the TMA to cater to the same. Presently one slaughter house is working in Mohalla “Dhok Fateh” adjacent to Govt. Primary School.

The complaints of residents are increasing day by day due to the existence of this slaughter house.

The slaughter house is not capable of meeting the existing slaughtering requirements. Keeping in view, these problems, TMA Attock has decided to shift the slaughter house outside the city premises.

2.5.4.2 Environmental Aspects Slaughterhouses can have significant impacts on the surrounding environment. Although the waste originating from slaughterhouses is organic in nature and is recyclable, if it is not handled properly, it can affect the surrounding environment negatively. Some key issues in this regard are listed below:

(a) Site Location The presence of such establishments within the populated areas can cause aesthetic and pollution related problems. The new slaughterhouse is located outside the populated area to avoid adverse impacts on surrounding population.

(b) Land Contamination The construction of slaughterhouse will not contaminate the land like other industrial operations, because no chemicals are used in slaughter houses that could have any detrimental effect on the environment. In fact the waste originating from slaughterhouse can help enrich the soil and make it more productive. The land contamination which occurs due to slaughter house waste is an aesthetic issue rather than one relating to pollution. To minimize the environmental impact, following mitigation measures have been proposed:

• Waste will not be stored outside the slaughterhouse premises to avoid issues of an aesthetic nature. • Waste will be properly stored inside the premises in an aerated area to minimize biodegradation and foul smell. • The slaughtering area will be paved and will include a blood collection system to avoid any wastage of by-products.

24

• The waste storage area and other adjacent areas will be sprinkled regularly with crushed limestone (calcium carbonate) for disinfection purposes or sprayed to avoid any spread of disease; and • The animal parking area will also be paved and have a liquid collection system.

(c) Water Contamination Water bodies may be contaminated by the waste generated by slaughterhouse. The main pollutants are blood, animal dung and body parts. Although contaminants are not toxic in nature, but they can introduce bacterial contamination and increase nitrates, phosphates and sulphates concentration in water, leading to health problems. To avoid / minimize these problems, the slaughterhouse will be provided a liquid waste collection system to prohibit the water discharge outside the premises. The waste collection system will carry the collected effluents to waste stabilization ponds and retention/evaporation tank for later discharge into the natural drain adjacent to the proposed site of slaughter house, which leads to Harro Nala. But due to sandy area, it is envisaged that almost all the effluents will be absorbed into the soil before reaching the Harro Nala and no effluents will be discharged into the Nala. The issue of groundwater contamination due to absorption/infiltration of effluents is negligible because the groundwater table in the TMA is about 80 to 100 ft.

(d) Air Emissions Slaughterhouse does not have cold storage facilities. Thus CFC emissions are not an issue. However, the foul smell, which pervades the area due to the presence of animals and decomposition of animal parts and other waste, is a significant issue for the surrounding populations. Due to improper waste handling, waste may decompose before being removed from the site by vendors. In addition, waste stored out in the open, may foul odor and is unpleasant aesthetically. To mitigate these impacts following measures have been proposed.

• Proper aerated storage areas will be built to minimize any foul smell. • Trees will be planted around the slaughterhouse to provide a barrier against the spread of foul smell or noise originating from the facility. (e) Solid Waste All waste originating from the slaughterhouse is marketable and can be sold to vendors for recycling purposes. Common wastes generated by slaughterhouse are hides, blood, bones, dung, fat and body parts, which could be used in the manufacture/preparation of leather, chicken feed, jelly, manure (compost/fertilizer) and cosmetics. Although the waste has a commercial value, a considerable amount of it is wasted because of poor handling, improper storage and poor marketing. The following measures are proposed to mitigate the environmental issues regarding solid waste:

• Waste handling will be improved to minimize losses. • Waste will be stored in open sheds to avoid the build-up of smell inside the facility. • Vendors will be asked to pick up waste on a daily basis to minimize degradation and smell. • Waste may be recycled. • Waste storage areas should be sprinkled with crushed lime (calcium carbonate) or sprayed for disinfection purposes as well as to curtail foul smell.

(f) Noise The noise from the animal slaughtering activities and vehicular movement to transport animals and meat to and from the slaughterhouse could be a nuisance for communities living in the

25

immediate vicinity of slaughter house. But in this case the proposed slaughter house is planned to be constructed outside the city premises. The proposed site is located at about 1.0 KM away from the populated areas. In spite of this, following measures have been proposed to improve the environmental conditions:

• Trees will be planted around the slaughter house to block the noise emitted from it. • Slaughter house walls should be designed for sufficient height which will act as noise barrier. • Animal carrying vehicles will not be allowed to enter the populated area.

(g) Health, Hygiene and Safety Lack of hygiene is a major issue at slaughterhouse. Little or no care is taken to maintain decent hygiene standards. The staff handling the meat does not practice sanitary methods while at work and are also not careful about their personal hygiene. Due to the absence of cold storage facilities, meat can get spoiled in the summer months posing a danger to the health of consumers. Due to lack of training, absence/non-availability of protective gear and inadequate monitoring, safety is a major issue in most of the slaughterhouses. Butchers/staff get injured regularly while handling animals, slaughtering etc. Following measures are proposed to minimize the health hygiene and safety problems:

• Meat handlers will undergo a regular medical check-up. • Meat handlers will be provided with protective gear like head cover, gloves etc. • The slaughterhouse premises will be regularly sterilized and treated for rodents, stray dogs and cats. • Lighting inside the slaughterhouse will be adequate to ensure proper visibility. • Facility will be regularly sprinkled with lime and / or sprayed for disinfection purposes. • Meat will be transported in covered vehicles which will be regularly disinfected. • The layout and design of slaughterhouse will be such that the risk of accidents is minimized. • Floors will be cleared regularly to ensure they are not slippery, to help prevent accidents. • Proper training will be provided to the staff on safety so that accidents can be avoided. • Regular monitoring of slaughterhouses will be undertaken to ensure that they comply with federal and provincial occupational health and safety rules. • All necessary facilities/infrastructure / utilities will be provided.

The checklist for environmental issues is attached at Annexure-D.

2.5.4.3 Social Issues No significant social issues will crop up due to construction of the proposed slaughter house. Potential social issues are discussed as under:-

(a) Land Acquisition There is no problem of land acquisition as government land is available. About 1.5 acres land would be required for the construction of this slaughter house. Almost half kilometre of approach road is to be constructed. Land is also available for oxidation ponds. The TMA Attock has approached Board of Revenue to get NOC. Board of Revenue has agreed and paper work for transfer of land is in progress.

26

(b) Change of Land Use The proposed land for construction of the slaughter house is owned by Board of Revenue, Govt. of Punjab. This land is lying barren and not used for any agricultural, commercial, or industrial purposes. The land is not recognized as environmentally / historically / culturally sensitive. Hence there is no issue of conversion of agricultural, residential, industrial or recreational land to any other use.

(c) Resettlement issues No resettlement issue is involved in the execution of this sub project as no body has to be displaced, no houses, shops or other structures have to be demolished and even not a single body’s business/source of income will be affected due to this sub project.

(d) Effected facilities / structures As the site is located outside the city premises, no facilities, utility lines have been provided in this area, hence there is no issue of effected facilities or structures.

The checklist for land acquisition / social issues is attached at Annexure-E.

2.5.4.4 Implementation Period The sub-project will be executed in eight months after the work has been awarded to the contractor. The implementation period has been depicted in Annexure-F.

2.5.4.5 Proposed Detailed Design & Construction Supervision The feasibility study and detailed design will be carried out by the consultants. The execution of the sub-project will be carried out by TO (I & S) of TMA Attock through National Competitive Bidding. The implementation will be monitored through resident staff of the consultants.

2.6 SUB-PROJECT COST

The cost of sub-project has been worked out to be Rs. 32.34 million. The detail is attached at Annexure-G.

2.7 SOCIAL BENEFITS

• People of Attock will get hygienic meat as a result of legal slaughtering. • General standard of health of public will be improved. • Ground water contamination due to inadequate disposal of effluents will be eliminated. • Due to shifting of existing slaughter house, the environmental conditions will be improved. • School children will get relief due to this shifting and concentrate on their studies.

2.8 RECOMMENDATIONS

• The scheme is technically feasible and financially viable. • For this purpose capacity building of the TMA is required in respect of operation and maintenance of this scheme. • Tehsil Nazim and TMA officers need to be sensitized for keeping adequate money in the budget for the O & M of this system.

3 CONSTRUCTION OF CATTLE MARKET

3.1 RATIONALE OF THE SUB-PROJECT

3.1.1 Existing Cattle Market The existing cattle market is in the centre of the town at a very congested location. It opens once a week on Sunday. The existing land available for cattle market is approx. 8 kanals. It belongs to Govt. of Punjab and has important buildings on all sides (District courts and police station on the east, wagon stand on the north, hockey ground on the west and petrol pump on the south). TMA has no NOC to use this land as cattle market and hence can be taken back at any time by Government of Punjab for any other purpose.

3.1.2 Water Supply System No water supply connection is available in the premises.

3.1.3 Drainage System No drainage system is available for this land.

3.1.4 Existing Establishment Cattle Market management is outsourced by TMA every year.

3.1.5 Solid Waste Management System The solid waste generated here, is being picked up by sanitary staff of TMA.

3.1.6 Operation and Maintenance It is open land without any structure and hence no maintenance is done by TMA except solid waste disposal.

3.2 NEEDS

Traffic hazards and jams are experienced due to congested location as taxi stand is situated nearby which results in wastage of time. The approach road is also very narrow and it is always encroached by rickshaws and taxis. It becomes very difficult for trucks to reach at that place and unload animals. Therefore the shifting of existing cattle market is an indispensable need of the town. As the market opens only on Sunday and people are forced to purchase animals for the whole week and they find it very difficult either to haul them at far flung areas or to restrain them at some nearby places which becomes cumbersome for them. Shifting of this market to new location will enable its opening on all five days which will improve the overall environment of the town.

3.3 PROBLEMS

Due to its location in the hub of the town, it is not possible to open this market on five days a week, that’s why it is opened just on Sunday. People purchase animals just once for slaughtering and they have to keep the animals with them around their houses or shops for the entire week which creates unhealthy environment. The existing slaughter house is almost two kilometers away from cattle market which involves lot of loading and unloading activities and use of vehicles and POL. There is no water supply system existing and it becomes very difficult to provide water for the animals especially during summer. There are no sheds available as it is a piece of open land where all animals and people have to stay for the whole day. Their problems

28

aggravate during summer season. Therefore shifting of this slaughter house with provision of basic amenities and services is the dire need of the town.

3.4 IMPROVEMENT REQUIRED WITH JUSTIFICATION

3.4.1 Shifting of Cattle Market to New Location

As already mentioned, the existing cattle market is located in populated area. The approach road is also in a very bad shape. Residents of this area are demanding to shift this cattle market due to traffic problems and jams on this road on Sundays. It is proposed to shift this market near to proposed slaughter house out of the town on Attaock-Fatehjang road with proper construction of sheds and loading, unloading platforms. This location is very close to slaughter house and will facilitate people and avoid excessive loading and unloading. Provision of the other services proposed for slaughter house like water supply, sewerage and solid waste management will enhance the service level in the market.

3.4.2 Adequate Water Supply

Presently, cattle market lacks the facility of any water supply system which is the major cause of distraction for farmers and merchants of cattle. A properly planned water supply system has been proposed for the new cattle market combined with slaughter house along with required storage to meet emerging power breakdowns.

3.4.3 Waste Water Disposal

Combined system for cattle market and slaughter house has been proposed.

3.4.4 Solid Waste Management System

Similarly a combined Solid Waste Management system has been proposed for cattle market and slaughter house.

3.5 THE SUB PROJECT

3.5.1 Description

It is proposed to shift the existing cattle market close to proposed slaughter house. It will comprise the following components.

ƒ Construction of internal roads. ƒ Construction of sheds with truss roofing. ƒ Construction of ramps for loading and unloading. ƒ Provision of lighting. ƒ Laying of water supply network. ƒ Administration block. ƒ Drainage/Sewerage System. ƒ Boundary Wall with gates.

3.5.2 Proposed Design

The cattle market has been designed with a planning horizon of 20 years. This can meet the demand up to 2026. A total of four sheds of 20’x 30’ dimension are provided. Two separate open areas of 138’x 160’ are provided for business activity. Two ramps of 30’ length with

29

platform and sloping approach are provided in each open area for loading and unloading of animals. The plan of proposed cattle market is shown at Annexure-H.

3.5.3 Operation and Maintenance Implications

The collection for user charges of cattle market is out-sourced every year through open bidding in the month of May. The highest bid for the year 2006-2007 is Rs. 4.4 million. This revenue will increase once cattle market with adequate facilities is constructed. This cattle market will be operated under the supervision of TO (Regulation).

The summary of O&M charges after completion of the scheme is given as under: (See Annexure-I) All figures in million Sr. Description Year 2008 Year 2016 No. 4. Establishment Charge 0.43 1.03 Electricity and POL 5. 0.34 0.40 charges 6. Repair & maintenance 0.79 1.03 Total 1.56 2.46

3.5.4 Revenue Generation Cattle markets are a major source of revenue generation in every TMA. Specific charges as percentage of sale / purchase price of cattle is fixed by TMA and approved by the government every year. The open bids are invited on these rates. Increase in the revenue takes place in each year. The actual revenue earned from this market in the last five years is given below:

Year Revenue generated (million Rs.) Remarks 2000-2001 1.60 Actual 2001-2002 2.174 Actual 2002-2003 2.305 Actual 2003-2004 2.135 Actual 2004-2005 3.150 Actual 2005-2006 4.350 Actual 2006-2007 4.40 Bid received

The rate of growth of receipts is 18.5 % per annum for last six years. The growth rate of revenue has been tremendous in the previous years. Taking an average figure of 10% growth per annum, the proposed revenue is given as under: Year Proposed Revenue 2006-2007 4.40 2007-2008 4.84 2008-2009 5.32 2009-2010 5.85

30

Year Proposed Revenue 2010-2011 6.43 2011-2012 7.07 2012-2013 7.77 2013-2014 8.54 2014-2015 9.39 2015-2016 10.33

The above figures show that TMA can easily recover the O & M cost and can also recover the cost of the project itself.

3.5.5 Environmental and Social Issues

3.5.5.1 Background The population of TMA Attock has grown rapidly in recent years. The nutrition and dairy needs of the population have multiplied and efforts are being made by the TMA to cater to the same. Existing cattle market is located within the city. The presence of this cattle market is a nuisance to local people. The complaints from locals are increasing day by day. Keeping in view, these problems, TMA Attock has decided to shift the cattle market outside the city premises.

3.5.5.2 Environmental Aspects Cattle market can have significant impact on the surrounding environment. Issues include discharge of contaminated waste water, potential of ground water contamination, improper housekeeping, bad odor and noise etc. the key issues are discussed below: (a) Site Location The existing cattle market is located within city limits, inside residential areas, causing aesthetic and pollution related problems. The smell, noise and waste generated from such establishments are a major nuisance for neighboring residents. The new cattle market is cited on the outskirts to avoid impact on the surrounding population.

(b) Land Contamination Cattle market operations do not contaminate land as industrial processes do.For the most part, the waste produced is organic in nature consisting of waste feed, animal by-products etc. In the rural areas, this waste is useful as manure to help enrich the soil. However, contamination is a major issue in the urban centres, where small cattle concerns are cited within residential areas. Here contamination is more of an aesthetic issue, than that of pollution. However following measures are proposed to mitigate/ avoid the possible impacts.

• Animal holding areas will be kept clean and maintained in a manner that minimizes risk of pollution. • Animals will be kept in a paved area with a liquid collection system. However, for the safety of animals it will be ensured that the floor is not slippery. • If waste needs to be stored before disposal, it will be collected, preferably in an aerated area to minimize biodegradation and foul smell, and avoid issues of aesthetic nature and; • The waste storage area will be sprinkled with crushed limestone (calcium carbonate) for disinfection purposes.

31

(c) Water Contamination Water bodies may be contaminated by the waste generated by cattle market. The main pollutant is animal dung. The presence of animal waste is a rich nutrient for bacteria which can deplete the dissolved oxygen content of water making it unfit for aquatic species if discharged into water bodies without treatment. Improper disposal of waste may also cause ground water contamination. Following measures are proposed to minimize this impact:

a) The waste area will have a liquid waste collection system to avoid any water discharges outside the premises. b) The waste collection system will carry the effluents to a retention pond for later discharge. c) Animals should not be allowed to consume or have access to contaminated water sources.

(d) Air Emissions The foul smell, which pervades the area due to the presence of animals and decomposition of excessive feed and other waste, is a significant issue for the surrounding populations. In addition, waste stored out in the open, may cause foul odor and is unpleasant aesthetically. To mitigate these impacts following measures are proposed.

• Proper aerated storage areas will be built to minimize any foul smell. • Trees will be planted around the slaughterhouse to provide a barrier against the spread of foul smell or noise originating from the facility.

(e) Solid Waste Most of the solid waste produced by cattle market is organic in nature, consisting of fecal matter and wasted feed and can be recycled if collected. The waste produced is not hazardous in nature, but its proper disposal is a matter of concern. Following measure are proposed to mitigate the environmental issues regarding solid waste:

• Waste will be stored in open areas to avoid the build up of smell inside the facility. • Waste storage areas will be sprinkled with crushed lime (calcium carbonate) or sprayed for disinfection purposes as well as to curtail foul smell. • Waste produced will be collected for use in low grade products such as animal feed or manure, where this is feasible.

(f) Noise The noise from the cattle market and vehicular movement to transport animals could be a nuisance for neighboring communities. Major sources of noise are the animals themselves and vehicular movement to transport them to and from the market. The proposed site is located at about 1 km away from the populated areas. In spite of this, following measures are proposed to improve the environmental conditions;

• Trees will be planted around the cattle market to block the noise emitted from it. • Cattle market walls should be designed for sufficient height which will act as noise barrier. • Animal carrying vehicles will not be allowed to enter the populated area. . (g) Health, Hygiene and Safety Lack of hygiene is a major issue at cattle market. Little or no care is taken to maintain decent hygiene standards. Due to lack of training, absence/non-availability of protective gear and

32

inadequate monitoring, safety is a major issue in most of the cattle market. The owners/staff get injured regularly while handling animals. Following measures are proposed to minimize the health hygiene and safety problems:

• Cattle handlers will undergo a regular medical checkup. • Cattle handlers will be provided with protective gear like head cover, gloves etc. • The market premises will be regularly sterilized and treated for rodents and insects etc. • Facility will be regularly sprinkled with lime and / or sprayed for disinfection purposes. • The layout and design of cattle market will be such that the risk of accidents is minimized. • Floors will be cleared regularly to ensure they are not slippery, to help prevent accidents. • Proper training will be provided to the staff on safety so that accidents can be avoided. • Regular monitoring of cattle market will be undertaken to ensure that they comply with federal and provincial occupational health and safety rules. • All necessary facilities/infrastructure / utilities will be provided.

The checklist for environmental issues is attached at Annexure-J.

3.5.6 Social Issues

No significant social issues will crop up due to construction of the proposed cattle market. Potential social issues are discussed as under:-

a. Change of Land use

The proposed land for construction of the cattle market is owned by Board of Revenue, Government of Punjab. This land is lying barren and not used for any agricultural, commercial, or industrial purposes. The land is not recognized as environmentally / historically / culturally sensitive. Hence there is no issue of conversion of agricultural, residential, industrial or recreational land to any other use.

b. Resettlement issues No resettlement issue is involved in the execution of this sub project as no body has to be displaced, no houses, shops or other structures have to be demolished and even not a single body’s business/source of income will be affected due to this sub project.

c. Effected facilities / structures As the site is located outside the city premises, no facilities, utility lines have been provided in this area, hence there is no issue of effected facilities or structures.

d. Land Acquisition There is no problem of land acquisition as approx. 111 acres of Govt. land is available. Approx. 3 acres land would be required for the construction of this Cattle market. The TMA Attock is trying to get NOC from Board of Revenue, which has agreed for transfer of land to TMA. The checklist for land acquisition / social issues is attached at Annexure-K.

3.5.7 Implementation Period

The sub-project will be executed in Six months after the work has been awarded to the contractor. The implementation period has been depicted in Annexure-L.

33

3.5.8 Proposed Detailed Design & Construction Supervision

The feasibility study and detailed design will be carried out by consultants. The execution of the sub-project will be carried out by TO (I & S) of TMA Attock through National Competitive Bidding. The implementation will be monitored through resident construction supervision.

3.6 COST OF SUB-PROJECT

The cost of sub-project has been worked out to be Rs. 11.7 million. The detail is attached at Annexure-M.

3.7 SOCIAL BENEFITS

• Decrease in traffic jams in city. • Decrease in environmental hazards. • Only healthy animals will be brought for sale as the availability will be more due to daily purchase which will improve health standards.

3.8 RECOMMENDATIONS

• The scheme is technically feasible and financially viable. • Shifting of this cattle market is direly needed as the existing one is located in the centre of the town and creates lot of congestion.
