Environmental Monitoring Report

1.0 INTRODUCTION 1 To improve the quality and reliability of service in the power transmission and distribution system networks, the Government of Madhya Pradesh (GoMP) has taken initiatives to invest in the power sector with funding from development partners like the Asian Development Bank (ADB). The investment involves expansion, upgrading and reconfiguration of the existing power transmission networks. An IEE report for TRANSCOM was submitted for ADB’s approval in September, 2013. However, during the course of commencement of the works, there were route alignment changes in some transmission lines, further some new lines were also added to the same project and some were dropped as they were no longer necessary. In case of substations also, two substations were dropped from the original scope of work. In light of these changes, the IEE report was further updated and submitted for ADB’s approval. The updated IEE report of May, 2017 was approved and disclosed by ADB. Thereafter, an Environmental Monitoring Report (EMR) for the period July 2014 to December 2016 was submitted and approved by ADB. Second and third environmental monitoring for the period January 2017 to June 2017 and July 2017 to December 2017 were also accepted and disclosed by ADB respectively. The updated IEE report of May, 2017 was also updated to reflect addition of few lines and changes in route alignment and length of few lines. This updated IEE of August, 2017 was also accepted and disclosed by ADB. This monitoring report covers the period from January 2018 to June 2018. This project is classified by ADB as Category B.

2 Madhya Pradesh Power Transmission Company Limited (MPPTCL) is utilizing the finance availed for the construction of new and up gradation of existing power transmission network. The main features include power evacuation and transmission through 400 kV, 220 kV, and 132 kV transmission lines along with associated Substations and Feeder Bays. It is being implemented under ADB Loan no. 3066 which is implemented by MPPTCL, Jabalpur. Figure 1.0 shows project location in the state of Madhya Pradesh.

3 The power sector investments are necessary to support continued investment in the state power sector, which is necessary for economic growth and poverty reduction. The loan availed will be utilized to finance the expansion and augmentation of the transmission and distribution (T&D) networks. The proposed investments are necessary to: (i) facilitate increased power transfers to accommodate increased demand and economic growth; (ii) improve supply-side energy efficiency by system de-bottlenecking and reducing technical losses; (iii) reduce the intensity of greenhouse gas (GHG) and other emissions via improved system efficiency; (iv) support expanded private sector participation in distribution system operations and other energy services; and (v) facilitate poverty reduction via improved electricity services and economic growth.

4 About 1,800 circuit-km of transmission line was proposed to be constructed under the original project as outlined in the approved IEE report of Sep, 2013. A total of 32 substations (or 12.5% of the existing substations) comprising two 400 kV, four 220 kV and twenty six 132 kV substations were proposed to be constructed. However, additions of new project components had resulted in a route length of 1880.285 kms and a total of 75 Transmission Lines and 56 substations (including additional transformers and associated feeder bays) as outlined in the updated and approved IEE report of May, 2017. Subsequently, 3 lines namely Dabra – Chinnaur DCSS Line, Morena (PGCIL) – Sabalgarh Line and Betul (PGCIL) – Betul Interconnecter were spilt into two (each line spilt into two) from system requirement point of view and there were changes in length and alignment of few lines. To incorporate these changes, the IEE report of May, 2017 was further updated and these changes were reflected in the IEE report of August, 2018 which was also accepted and disclosed by ADB.

At the time of finalization of IEE report of May, 2017, land allotment for three substations viz. Palohabada, Satna-II and Mada was not final. These were later finalized and the land status was duly updated and the changes were reflected in the updated IEE report of August, 2018.

There are changes in length and alignment during this reporting period and the report captures these changes along with the reason for such changes. For the subprojects where the length and alignment has changed by more than 500 metres, the reason for such changes has also been mentioned under remarks section. For length changes less than 500 metres, it is largely due to design elements requirements and does not result in any significant impact. The IEE report of august, 2018 will be further updated in order to reflect the changes in length and alignment captured during this reporting period.

The details of projects work viz. lines, substations and feeder bays along with project status during this monitoring period are given below in Table no. 1.0 and Table no. 1.1 respectively.

4.0 Monitoring of environmental receptors/attributes

8. In order to comply with requirements of Environmental monitoring, the contractor carries out regular testing at specified intervals with regards to air quality, water quality and noise levels during preconstruction, construction and post construction stage as mentioned in the environmental monitoring plan. The implementation is monitored through MPPTCL. The primary responsibility of the environmental monitoring agency are for ensuring that testing, monitoring and reporting impact of transmission lines & substation projects on air, ground & surface water and noise levels is carried out as per schedule.

9. During the construction and operation phase of this project, the monitoring of the environmental aspects is done at the transmission line by the safeguard specialist of the PMU. The mitigation measures suggested in the IEE require monitoring of environmental parameters during construction and operational phases of the project. During the construction phase, the Contractor ensures that activities like handling of earth works clearing work, access road construction, putting proper traffic signals is done properly to have minimum impact. This in turn is monitored by the Project Engineer of the individual transmission line/substation project.

10. The ESU and site support team ensures that EPC contractors will adhere and comply with all measures and procedures identified in the EMP. The plans, endorsed by the EA and GoMP, will be monitored in accordance to ADB Safeguard Policy 2009 requirements. Mitigation measures related to construction as specified in the EMP will be incorporated into civil works contracts, and their implementation will be primarily the responsibility of the contractors. Monitoring of the quality of water, soil, air and noise during the construction stage is the responsibility of the contractor by the approved government agency. Other environmental good practices to be followed include sanitary waste management, noise abatement, maintaining hygienic conditions, maintenance of fire and safety equipment. Monitoring report will be prepared once in six months with the corrective action plan for the problem areas. PMU’s monitoring report will be provided to ADB on a bi-annual basis and will demonstrate that sound environmental management practices are applied during construction and operation, and the set environmental mitigation targets are achieved.

11. Since the civil construction works under the project are very minor, hence, the environmental monitoring for ambient air quality, water quality, soil and noise levels during various stages – pre construction, construction and post construction will be monitored as per below schedule given in Table 4.0.

12. The environmental monitoring of ambient air, ambient noise and soil quality was planned to be carried out during this monitoring period of January 2018 to June 2018. Some contracts were cancelled and had to be reawarded, hence, environmental testing is delayed. Testing of environmental parameters will be carried out and submitted during next monitoring period.

5.0 Any Other environmental aspects, impacts observed during implementation which were not covered earlier

13. The project does not have any unanticipated impacts during this reporting period.

6.0 Details of Grievance Redress Committee and Complaints Received from public and actions taken thereof to resolve

14. The Grievance rederess committee is set up by MP Transco-PMU and consists of representatives from the local Panchayat Head, a District Revenue Commissioner, representative from the EPC Contractor(s) only during construction phase, designated staff of MP Transco-PMU on safeguards, Manager/Director of MP Transco-PMU, and a witness of the complainant/affected person. See annexure 4 for details.

15. Responsibilities: The GRC is expected to: (i) resolve issues on land acquisition (if any), compensation to temporary damages to crops and plants, and other use of land such as borrow areas for transmission towers and substations; (ii) convene twice a month to review complaints lodged (if any), (iii) record the grievances and resolve the issues within a month (30 days) from the date the grievance was filed, (iv) report to the complainant(s) the status of grievance resolution and the decisions made.

16. Procedures: Minor grievances on compensation or environmental issue during construction will be resolved onsite through the EPC Contractor(s) Project Site Engineer. As a formal process of grievance resolution, the procedure is described below. (i) Affected persons (Aps) are informed in writing by MP Transco-PMU (or designated representative) of the damages and entitlements for compensation. If the Aps are satisfied, compensation can be claimed from MP Transco-PMU through the EPC Contractor(s). If the Aps are not satisfied, they can request for clarification from MP Transco-PMU. If the Aps are not convinced with the outcome, they can file the grievance to the GRC with the help of MP Transco-PMU who will provide the written documentation. (ii) The GRC conducts a hearing of the grievance in the presence of the Aps and will provide a decision within 15 days from the receipt of the complaint. Minutes of the meeting are approved by MP Transco-PMU and provided to the Aps including the decision made by the GRC. If the Aps are satisfied with the GRC decision, they can claim the compensation from MP Transco-PMU and/or EPC Contractor(s). (iii) No grievances have been received in any of the subprojects during this monitoring period.

7.0 Public Consultation During Project Implementation

17. During field visits, public consultations with affected persons were carried out. The site visit was accompanied by Contractor representative and meeting with MPPTCL officials at divisional offices was held to understand the overall physical progress, issues impediment to project completion and observation requiring attention of PMU.

18. Substations are built on government wasteland except for Palohabada (where a part of substation land has been acquired through mutual consent). In case of transmission lines, compensation is paid to farmers for crop loss and trees. The ROW is selected in a manner such that it avoids ecological sensitive areas. No major complaints were received with regards to compensation amount. In some lines, payments are pending at relevant tehsil or revenue office and contractor and MPPTCL officials assured that they will be cleared soon. The contractor provides amenities and safety equipments to workers. The photographs of site visits and lists of affected persons who participated in public consultations are provided in Annexure 1 and Annexure 2 respectively. Table 7.0 and 7.1 summarises public consultations findings for transmission lines and substations, additional transformers and associated Feeder Bays respectively.

9.0 Follow-up actions and conclusions

25. In order to have sustainable development in the project, emphasis on the implementation of EMP has been given top most priority. Compliances to regulations as contained in ADB Loan Agreement are being met. MPPTCL is monitoring the implementation of environmental safeguards measures being undertaken by the contractor on regular basis. A grievance redressal committee has been constituted. Complaints, if any, received will be resolved at the earliest. The contractor will implement the decision taken by the committee. 26. Forest clearance is awaited for one subproject and construction activities will only begin once clearance is obtained. Some contracts were cancelled and had to be reawarded, hence, environmental testing is delayed. Testing of environmental parameters will be carried out and submitted during next monitoring period. 27. There are line alignment changes and minor changes in length in case of some subprojects and the reasons have been outlined in this EMR. The changes are not likely to cause any negative residual impacts. The IEE report of august, 2018 will be further updated in order to reflect the changes in length and alignment captured during this reporting period.
