I. INTRODUCTION A. BACKGROUND

1. The Hanoi People’s Committee (HPC) through the Hanoi Metropolitan Railway Management Board (MRB), is carrying out the project HANOI METRO RAIL SYSTEM (LINE 3: SECTION NHON – ), with loans from a number of Financiers to the Government of (GoV) including: Asian Development Bank (ADB); European Investments Bank (EIB); and two French Government Agencies - Direction Generale du Tresor de France (DGTresor) and Agence Francaise de Development (AFD). Part of the proceeds of the ADB Loan Agreement has been applied to implement Consulting Services for Project Management Support, Phase 2 (PMS2). 2. TPF GETINSA EUROESTUDIOS, S.L (the Consultant, PMS2) in association with GETINSA VIETNAM JOINT STOCK COMPANY (JSC) as Sub-Consultant, was invited to submit a Proposal to provide the Consulting Services according to the RFP No.: CS1, issued on 19 April 2017. THE AGREEMENT was signed on 27 April 2017, between MRB and TPF GETINSA EUROESTUDIOS, S.L. 3. The Consultant PMS2 mobilization has started on 15 May 2018. The National Environmental Specialist was mobilized since 14 June 2018 and the International Environmental Specialist was mobilized on 25 June 2018. 1 B. SCOPE OF THE REPORT

4. This report presents the results of the environmental management performance of monitoring activities developed by involved agents during the period July to December 2018.2 5. This Environmental Monitoring Report (EMR) is in line with the Terms of Reference (TOR) of the Consultant’s PMS2 contract. The report documents the implementation of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) 3 specifications and Contractors Environmental Management Plans (CEMP) of civil work packages currently under activity, that reflects the specifications contained in the previous Environmental Management Plan (EMP) prepared for the Detail Design (DD) document. 6. The report was prepared through reviewing the Monthly Progress Reports prepared from July to December 2018 by the Project Implementation Consultant (PIC) and Monthly Reports for the second semester 2018 prepared by the PMS2. 7. As well, a site visit was carried out on 15 January 2019, jointly both National and International Specialists of the PMS2. This visit was attended by the CP03 Contractor’s National Health, Safety and Environmental Specialist (HSE). The observations are also considered in the content of the report. 8. PMS2, as a part of its responsibilities according to the TOR of the contract, will carry out environmental effect monitoring (measurement of air/soil/water quality noise and vibration). With this objective, a complete Environmental Monitoring Plan (EMoP) was prepared in June 2018 and submitted to MRB in July 2018 for revision and approval. The company that, as a sub-consultant of PMS2, will undertake environmental effect monitoring is a JV between EAC Aliance, JSC and CEDA (Center of Environmental

1 Implementation commenced in 2010 with initial works on the depot, while PMS Phase 1 (IDOM) was mobilized from April 2014 to September 2015. During the absence of PMS (after September 2015), a national environmental consultant mobilized by ADB supported MRB in environmental monitoring and its reporting. 2 The last environmental monitoring report which covers the period from January to June 2018 has been disclosed on ADB website since March 2018. 3 The (updated) EIA has been disclosed on ADB website since August 2013.

B. CONSTRUCTION WORKS 1ST SEMESTER 2018

20 Updated information provided by the PIC details the status of works during the second semester 2018 for each package. Along this semester, four packages (CP01, CP02, CP03 and CP05) were clearly active on site, although the progress of the works was not significant for Packages CP02 and CP05. CP03, doubled the progress although contractor is just beginning works. Regarding CP06, CP07 and CP08, table 2 shows a significant progress during this semester, although Table 3 shows that no real construction activity on site. This is due to the concept of progress, which is referred to percentage of total cost. These mentioned packages mostly provided and stored material for future works.

IV. AGENTS’ ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT

A. INCORPORATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL REQUIREMENTS INTO PROJECT CONTRACTUAL ARRANGEMENTS. CEMPs

21 The EMP which is part of the EIA was included in the biding documents of five civil contractors (CP-01, CP-02, CP-03, CP-04 and CP-05). They were required to prepare Contractor’s EMP (CEMP) for detailing their mitigation action plans based on the EMP, to address construction impacts specific to site conditions. The CEMPs of CP-01, CP-02, CP-03, CP-04 and CP-05 were approved prior to construction start, as follows:

B. CONTRACTOR’S ENVIRONMENTAL AND SAFETY SPECIALISTS MOBILIZATION

23 The key personnel mobilization in each contractor’s staff, regarding to Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) matters, is described as follows and summarized in Table 5. This information was updated in the end of December 2018. 24 The contractors established HSE management units in charge of environment and safety to ensure implementation of the CEMP, in the first semester of 2018. Site inspections for safety issues are conducted daily by safety engineers of contractors; the contractors have always at least one safety engineer on site during construction time. All environmental and safety staff of contractors have been trained on HSE course and have certificates on labor safety supervision issued by authorized agencies such as Safety Training – Inspection – Environmental Survey JSC and Solution Safety and Health Co., Ltd.

25 In the table it may be observed that Packages CP01 and CP05 keep mobilized in December 2018 a manager for the three subjects (Health, Safety and Environment). PMS2 considers that it’s enough, as CP01 is near completion, and CP05 is developed also in a well limited and restricted area. As well, no significant environmental impacts have happened in these packages. Therefore, PMS2 considers that, according to the current progress of the works and the scale of the pending works, one HSE manager for each of these packages can develops the supervision of the three matters. CP04 has already finished works and CP06 is only for design works and are developed in France, no staff on site. 26 Regarding CP03, contractor mobilized only one manager for health and safety matters, supported by 4 staff. The PIC had issued several letters to the Contractor requesting the mobilization of a specialized Environmental Manager, as the construction of the tunnel will be complicated under this point of view. In July 2018 this specialist was mobilized, and he is permanently on site, but he was not officially designed. PMS2 doesn’t understand this situation as this mobilization is an improvement and should be officially designed by letter and, therefore, officially approved, in case. C. OTHER AGENCIES’ SPECIALISTS MOBILIZATION

27 Project Implementation Consultant - PIC has assigned one international HSE specialist, already mobilized when PMS2 started works in May 2018, in charge of these three matters and for all packages under PIC supervision, who has continually been providing support to the MRB through close inspection of implementation of the environmental and safety compliance at site. However, in view of large and long construction site (about 12 km) and very strict requirements on safety, the specialist’s focus has been on safety issues mainly, with less attention to EMP compliance monitoring. In previous SEMR, PMS2 suggested that PIC should mobilize a specific environmental specialist and PMS2 insists in this suggestion. Subjects as soils management, noise and vibrations, waters generated during excavation control, are important and difficult matters. 28 Ha Noi Metro Railway Board - MRB assigned an experienced environmental specialist as the specific officer for environmental management since April 2017 to December 2017. This officer has conducted regular site inspections, reviewed environmental reports prepared by contractors, PIC and other all tasks related to environmental and safety issues. However, since December 2017, MRB has no specialist for environment, health and safety issues, although there is one engineer in charge of the coordination with PMS2 for these subjects. PMS2 acts as MRB direct support, as requested by MRB. 29 Project Management Support consultant, Phase 2 – PMS2 has mobilized a full time National Environmental Specialist by middle June 2018. As well, the International Environmental Expert was mobilized for the first period by end of June 2018 and for his second period by January 2019 to prepare the corresponding SEMR. The External Specialist was also mobilized on 27 June 2018 and prepared an Independent Environmental Verification Report, that was submitted to MRB and approved. Currently, this report is under ADB review.

In August 2018 HPC submitted a letter to MRB including some comments regarding this GRM proposed, requesting clarification. In October 2018 it was convened by MRB a meeting with HPC in order to explain and discuss those comments. Until now, January 2019, HPC has not taken a final decision and therefore the GRM is not yet approved by HPC. An EMU has not been established, but MRB has signed a contract with an experienced environmental specialist in April 2017, in charge of environment and safety issues at MRB. This specialist stopped working by end of 2017. Since the mobilization of support consultant’s environmental

C. PROJECT ENVIRONMENTAL REPORTING SYSTEM. ASSESSMENT

33 In accordance with the approved EMP, monthly, semi-annual and annual monitoring reports on EMP compliance as well as quarterly environmental quality monitoring reports must be prepared by relevant stakeholders. PMS2 assessment of the project environmental reporting system is included below, in table 7. The structure of the reporting process is shown in Figure 4.

Table 7. Assessment of Project environmental reporting system Required reports Agency Addressee Assessment in approved EIA Monthly MRB Partly complied with environmental During the second semester 2018, monitoring reports PIC prepared monthly reports on on environmental Project quality and progress in which performance of only a short section on health, safety contractors. and environment was included and it did not include any substantive information. Furthermore, the content of this section is more or less the same each monthly report, so that, it doesn’t provide enough detailed information about the daily HSE management on site. It has to be mentioned that PIC does not prepare any specific monthly report about environmental issues: impacts, assessment of compliances PIC with CEMP, implemented corrective (SYSTRA) measures, etc., as it may be inferred from the terms of its contract and as it is a common practice in other similar projects while construction phase. PMS2 proposed MRB to increase the traffic of information from Supervision Consultant (PIC) to MRB, with monthly frequency, through a specific environmental monitoring report, detailing the results of all related activities, including the results of specific site inspections. During the second semester 2018 this suggestion was not implemented, although PMS2 and MRB began to analyze the PIC’s responsibilities in its contract to find the best solution as soon as possible.

Required reports Agency Addressee Assessment in approved EIA Quarterly reports MRB Not complied with on results of CENMA (who carried out environmental environmental effect monitoring) quality monitoring prepared quarterly environmental quality monitoring reports from Sep 2012 to Feb 2015. Since November 2015, contractors have been preparing semi-annual environmental quality monitoring reports. The environmental quality monitoring reports prepared before PMS2 starts works were undertaken in December 2017 by four contractors (CP01,02, 03 and 05). PIC reviewed these reports and issued No Objection to the reports. It means that the PIC didn’t prepare a report, just indicated “No Objection”. During the first semester of 2018 there was no available information about any monitoring activity on site and it was not received by PMS2 any report with new data of the analysis of environmental parameters. During the second semester, these were the reports provided to PMS2, directly by contractors, not after request to the PIC: - CP01. July, September, November and December 2018, monitoring data for the first semester 2018. Bi-monthly monitoring works - CP02. Sept. 2018, semi-annual monitoring frequency.

Required reports Agency Addressee Assessment in approved EIA Reports (SEMR) prepared by ADB consultants. In May 2018, a new PMS2 was contracted and the International Environmental Specialist was mobilized by end of June, in order to assist MRB to prepare this SEMR January-June 2018. By end of the second semester 2018, the SEMR was already approved by MRB, reviewed and approved by ADB and also posted in ADB’s website. This second SEMR of PMS2 is currently being drafted for review and approval and it will be submitted to MRB by middle February. MRB Semi-annual ADB Being complied with Environmental A final version of the 2nd PMS2 Monitoring Report SEMR will be submitted to ADB for (SEMR) review and approval (see previous paragraph) after being approved by MRB. Independent ADB Complied with Environmental After the new PMS2 started works, a Verification National Environmental Specialist Report (IEVR) was mobilized to prepare the IEVR for the period March 2017-June 2018, which has been submitted for review and approval. Next IEVR will be prepared, according to the Terms of Reference of the Contract, in July 2019, as it is an annual report. Contractors Not defined MRB Partially complied with Compliance preparing monthly internal environmental and safety monitoring reports and semi-annual environmental quality monitoring reports, reviewed by PIC and then submitted to MRB. The exception for this compliance is related with the frequency of the environmental effect monitoring reports, different to the specification in the EIA for CP05, as it was commented above in this table 7. Regarding the frequency of the Ref: PMS2_MRB_SEMR_21.02_ver 01 Page 21 of 93

Required reports Agency Addressee Assessment in approved EIA environmental quality monitoring activities, while the EIA 2009 requires daily (archaeological relics), weekly (traffic), monthly (groundwater quality for tunnel construction) or quarterly monitoring for the rest of parameters and packages, the new Regulation in Vietnam - Circular 24/TT/BTNMT issued on 01 September 2017 by MONRE, specifies that they must be carried out each 2 months. MRB was informed about this change in the National Law, on 29 August 2018, while PMS2 was taking contact with the project, reviewing the existing information, procedures and documents, after the specialists were mobilized to start works. According to this fact, PMS2 proposed MRB to increase the frequency of the analytics to give compliance to the new Regulation.

VIII. ENVIRONMENTAL MAIN FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

A. MAIN FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

38 In January 2019, the Environmental Specialists of PMS2 analyzed the environmental situation on site as a last check of them for this report. As well, PMS2 reviewed the documents and reports submitted by the PIC, that are the main source of information for MRB and, therefore, for PMS2. Table presents the results of this work and the compliances/non-compliances of Contractors with the EIA and/or CEMPs and/or other requirements of the Client (MRB) and/or donors (ADB, etc.), after verifications on site along the second semester 2018. 39 This table includes those impacts or issues that has any relevance during the construction stage or have any comment to highlight.

B. TREE RELOCATION/REMOVAL ACTIVITIES PERFORMED

40 CP03. In August 2018, the sub-contractor has relocated 5 trees at Station 9 to Vinh Ngoc Interchange Arboretum area. 41 CP03. In November 2018, under permission No. 109/GP-SXD dated 14 Nov 2018, the Contractor has removed 2 trees and relocated 9 trees in front of Daewoo Hotel for construction work of Ramp. Trees removed included 1 Cassia fistula and 1 Khaya senegalensis; the trees relocated were: 1 Cassia fistula, 3 Khaya senegalensis, 1 Lagerstroemia speciose, 3 Engelhardtia spicata and 1 Chukrasia tabularis. None of these species are endangered species included in the Red List of Viet Nam and the given permit allowed the Contractor to remove the trees without further analysis. 42 The method to manage the trees was according to the method statement and properly carried out by specialists. 43 Table 12 presents the tree relocation status by end of December 2018, it means, end of the period of reference of this report. Detailed information is presented in Appendix 2. This issue is being updated continuously in the reports prepared by PMS2.

44 The information and status of foreseen and approved disposal places of the project is presented in Table 13. 45 It has to be mentioned that a problem arose regarding the available disposal places for CP03 and, therefore, a letter explaining the situation was addressed to MRB. 46 According to the reference: i) “Item 1.2 Total Bill of Package, section 6.3 Bill of Quantities and Price Centers, Contract Package – HPLML/CP03”, total surplus material from structure excavation is 624,321.21 cubic meters. 47 But total surplus material which is estimated by Contractor CP03 is about 896,190.10 cubic meters in which Underground stations, Ramp and Emergency Shaft is 727,061.47 cubic meters and Tunnel is 160,928.63 cubic meters and Thu Le Lake road is 8,200.00 cubic meters. 48 The Contractor CP03 has proposed 2 disposal areas with total receiving capacity is 1,749,585.00 cubic meters in which Van Noi disposal area is 349,766.00 cubic meters and Nguyen Khe disposal area is 1,399,819.00 cubic meters. 49 However, actually Van Noi disposal area is no longer available to receive more surplus soils and Nguyen Khe disposal area is used for many projects in Hanoi and its

capacity is also near to be finished. Currently, the information from Nguyen Khe disposal area owner indicate that the remaining capacity of this disposal area is 865,710.00 cubic meters but it is expected to be quickly filled with many projects that are using this disposal area to dispose their own surplus while the remaining surplus soil volume of package CP03 is very big. 50 It’s essential to look for other disposal areas to ensure that all the surplus material of the project is properly disposed in authorized locations.

For unsuitable material disposal plan in the future, the contractor HANCORP must find and submit documentation of new disposal area to PIC for review and approval. Up to now, excavated material is deposited directly on site, beside the excavation and it will be reused to fill the foundations. After those works, remaining soil must be disposed in a location already approved at that moment. 52 It is also suggested that the excavation work only could continue if the PIC grants SONO to the action plan of contractor in order to manage this material. D. BUILDING CONDITION

53 Contractor for CP03 finished the building condition survey (BCS), along the sections between stations 9 and 12, in August 2018. The report with the results and the method statement for monitoring the possible affections to houses was submitted to MRB for review. E. INCIDENT RECORD

54 On 01 November 2018, MRB received a complaint from Pullman Hotel management regarding a wall cracking incident. The redress procedures and result is presented in chapter X, paragraph 69. 55 An oil spillage incident has been recorded at Station 10 on 22 November 2018 due to the main hydraulic pipe of a crane that was broken because of high pressure. The spillage volume was about 50 liters. The impacted area was isolated with dry clean sand. Then, polluted sand was stored in bags in a spill tray. Oil absorbent pads were used to clean the spilled oil on the crane. Polluted sand and hazardous waste were transported and treated by a company approved by authority. 56 Restricted Work Case recorded at CP03: On 22 December 2018 at 09.00, a female worker sustained a crush injury to her left hand while working on the re-bar cage at Station 9. A piece of 42 mm rebar weighing approximately 40kg fell onto her while she was carrying out light work (securing tie wires) inside the cage. The worker was rather new as staff of the construction company, less than one month. Most of the workers of the team in which she was working were inexperienced with this type of works. 57 PIC did not include this accident in its monthly report. As well, according to the information in all monthly reports from PIC in second semester 2018, no accidents were recorded. F. ISSUES FROM PREVIOUS REPORT(S)

58 In the PMS2’s first SEMR, due to the progress of the works at that time, the tasks carried out and the general activity on site, no significant issues were recorded. Most of minor affections or wrong actions were punctual and/or were requested for correction. The evolution of those issues is now reflected in this SEMR, either because new observations are related with previous situations or because previous issues were being solved, totally or partially, during the semester of reference of this SEMR. 59 It has to be remarked one issue that in the previous SEMR was highlighted: the mobilization by the PIC of HSE Manager, in charge of all safety, health and environment matters. We considered that in fact this HSE Manager was specialized in health and safety, not in environment. The lack of environmental information and assessments provided by the PIC in its reports confirms that appreciation. 60 Therefore, PMS insists, for a full compliance of the duties of a supervision consultant company and for a project with the features and difficulties that this presents, in

Ref: PMS2_MRB_SEMR_21.02_ver 01 Page 48 of 93 Package CS1: Consulting Services for Project Management Support (Phase 2) under Hanoi Metro Rail System Project (Line 3: Nhon – Hanoi Station Section)

the recommendation that the PIC mobilizes as soon as possible an specific environmental specialist to support HSE Manager in these subjects. As well, PMS2 suggests the convenience that the PIC prepares monthly specific environmental reports which should include all related items, so that, MRB (and consequently its support consultant) will be periodically informed about environmental situation on site, status of complaints, affections detected by PIC, measures implemented, results of analytics, etc.). G. ISSUES IDENTIFIED BY ADB’S REVIEW MISSION (OCT. 2018)

61 Table 14 shows the status of resolution of the main issues identified by ADB’s Review Mission carried out in October 2018 and included in the MOU, chapter C. Regarding the environmental findings during ADB’s site visit, some considerations are previously reflected: (i) Some situations founded or observed cannot be followed up as they were punctual or during specific works. When PMS2 detected similar issues, they were communicated to contractors and reported to MRB. (ii) Other situations are already detailed along this report and assessed considering the whole period of the SEMR. Therefore, it’s not needed to repeat them again in Table 14. (iii) Social issues (land acquisition, resettlement, gender, etc.) are not a subject of this report and they are included in social subject reports for reference.

IX. ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PLAN. RESPONSIBILITIES

62 The Environmental Monitoring Plan (EMoP) has been prepared and submitted to the MRB in the middle July 2018 for approval. 63 By the plan, the first Environmental Monitoring work should be implemented in the 3rd quarter 2018, but it was not implemented as it has to be previously approved by MRB and ADB. This EMoP will be implemented by PMS2 during the next 4 years. The plan was prepared mainly considering the specifications contained in the Terms of Reference of the support consultant’s contract and also according to the current situation on site and the expected progress of the works. 64 After some discussions regarding the content of this plan and the certifications that the sub-consultant should have, by letter dated 31 October 2018, MRB communicated the approval of the EMoP. PMS2, on 6 November 2018, submitted MRB a letter with the proposal for the sub-consultant in charge of the implementation of the monitoring works. By letter dated on 16 November 2018, MRB accepted the sub-consultant in charge of EMoP implementation. On 20 December 2018 MRB submitted the documentation related with the EMoP to ADB for review and approval. ADB addressed a letter dated 17 January 2019 indicating ADB’s No Objection to adjustment of the EMoP under PMS2 Contract. Therefore, the plan could not be implemented during the second semester of 2018, reference period for this report. 65 As well, this plan may be modified when the conditions on site recommend it. In such case, PMS2 will propose MRB the changes to improve the efficiency of the environmental quality control. 66 During the third quarter 2018, Contractors were implementing the environmental monitoring as per stated in approved CEMPs, except CP03. The Contractor’s Environmental Monitoring Reports have been submitted to the MRB and PIC. Having reviewed the requirements for environmental monitoring during construction phase in EIAs and current related regulation of DONRE, it’s noted that the environmental monitoring work of the Contractors do not satisfy these requirements. For CP03, PIC stated that there is no continuous Environmental Monitoring performed during Contiguous Bored Pile in its monthly reports; PIC also requested the CP03 to comply with its approved CEMP. 67 In the monthly progress report prepared by PIC, it’s stated that the CP03 didn’t implement the Environmental Monitoring while carrying out construction works. A request for compliance with approved HGU CEMP has been issued to HGU contractor by PIC. 68 A proposal has been submitted to the MRB on 29 August 2018 to suggest that the environmental monitoring work of the Contractors should be complied with the EIAs of the project as well as the current regulation of MONRE, in particularly Circular no. 24/2017/TT-BTNMT dated 01 September 2017 on Environmental Monitoring Techniques of MONRE. Environmental Monitoring Program in Monthly Environmental Monitoring Report of PMS2 which was submitted to the MRB on 17 September 2018. 69 During the fourth quarter 2018, Regarding the environmental monitoring works that is covered by PMS2, due to the application of new regulation on environmental monitoring techniques, Circular 24/2017/TT-BTNMT, a proposal to modify environmental monitoring frequency and remove some unnecessary parameters has been prepared and submitted to MRB for review and approval. 70 Regarding the environmental monitoring works under contractors implementation, they have been implemented in frequency as per stated in approved CEMPs; however, it’s

Ref: PMS2_MRB_SEMR_21.02_ver 01 Page 55 of 93 Package CS1: Consulting Services for Project Management Support (Phase 2) under Hanoi Metro Rail System Project (Line 3: Nhon – Hanoi Station Section)

noted that the environmental monitoring frequencies are not uniform between the Contractors and the frequencies are not complied as stated in the approved EIA 2009 of the project and new regulation on environmental monitoring techniques of MONRE, Circular 24/2017/TT-BTNMT. 71 According to the approved CEMPs, the environm
