INTRODUCTION 1.1 Overview 1. This document is the Initial Environmental Examination (IEE) for the construction of a new Loralai- Quetta industrial -132kv DC transmission line (DGL) from Loralai to Quetta District, Baluchistan province, adjacent to the Five DGS to be connected to the existing Quetta – Loralai line of the QESCO distribution grid. This IEE presents the results and conclusions of environmental assessment for the proposed construction of the Loralai –Quetta SP, and is submitted by Quetta Electric Supply Company (QESCO). The SP is to be considered for early improvement under the PDEMFF and requires environmental assessment under ADB operating procedures. An IEE has been carried out to fulfill the requirements of ADB Safeguards Policy Statement 2009. 2. Overall the proposed PDEMFF facility has been designed to address both investment and institutional aspects in the electrical power sector. The Project involves the construction of a new transmission line in Quetta and Loralai District of Balochistan, connected to the five existing grid DGS, for which detailed designs are currently being developed. The total cost of the SP will be estimated later on. ADB will fund the design, civil works and project preparation and support components through a Tranche 3. 3. The environmental assessment requirements of the GoP for DGL and power transmission projects are different to those of ADB. The environmental regulations of the GoP categorize development projects into two schedules according to their anticipated potential environmental impacts. The proponents of projects that have more adverse environmental impacts (Schedule II) are required to submit an environmental impact assessment (EIA). A review of the need for IEE / EIA submission is therefore required by the relevant environmental protection agency, in this case the Baluchistan Environmental Protection Agency (BEPA). Page 1 of 54 Power Distribution Enhancement Multi Tranche Financing Facility - PAK Tranche 3 – Loralai-Quetta industrial 132KV DC Transmission line, Initial Environmental Examination 4. The standards and conditions of the power transmission system in Pakistan are inadequate to meet the rapidly growing demand for electrical power. New developments in SP will result in additional load on the DGS stations, which are already facing difficulties in meeting the demands Page 2 of 54 Power Distribution Enhancement Multi Tranche Financing Facility - PAK Tranche 3 – Loralai-Quetta industrial 132KV DC Transmission line, Initial Environmental Examination of even the existing communities. This situation limits national development and economic growth. To cope with the constraints, the existing power transmission infrastructure has to be improved and upgraded. The overall contribution of power infrastructure also requires institutional arrangements and capacity that support strategic management of the sector, and planning and management of investments. 5. The Tranche 3 subprojects can be broadly separated into two groups. Projects that involve the improvement of facilities and equipment within existing DGS boundaries and do not require any land acquisition belong to group 1. However, the SP involves construction of a new DGL, and Impacts from the SP should not be excessive even though some land needs to be acquired for the Right of Way (RoW) to accommodate the transmission line towers. The location of the DGL is known and enabling observations and consultations for an Environmental Impact Assessment (Cat B). The designs for the Tranche 3 (T3) subprojects and further subprojects in all later tranches will be developed; under the project support component of TA. 6. The GOP has requested the Asian Development Bank (ADB) to provide finance for the SP to cover the construction of a DGL to help fulfill the overall objective of the MFF to encourage economic growth and improve transmission and distribution efficiency, by creating a series of regional improvements. The improved transmission efficiency will contribute to expansion of economic opportunities by improving capacity and efficiency and security of supply in the Baluchistan Province of Pakistan. 1.2 Scope of the IEE Study and Personnel 7. At the time of conducting this study (August, 2012), the preliminary detailed designs for the DGL are not completed and the overall requirements for installation of the equipment have not been identified and the approximate alignment of the line is in process (Figures 1.2 and Appendix 1). This IEE has been conducted based on information available as of August 2012. 8. The Loralai-Quetta SP involves the construction of about 272 km of Double Circuit 132 KV transmission line from Loralai to Quetta District in Balochistan and the detailed designs are under development. Land will be acquired for a Right of Way (RoW) for the supporting towers that can accommodate the transmission line. This IEE study has included field reconnaissance of the site and surroundings of the subproject. 9. The study area study included the identification of any irrigation facilities, water supply, habitable structures, schools, health facilities, hospitals, religious places and sites of heritage or archaeological importance and critical areas1 (if any) within about 50m of the proposed distribution line (DGL). The works are generally envisaged to involve construction of the bases and foundation pads and towers to support the transmission line. 10. The field studies would be undertaken by the project‘s environment team with experience of environmental assessment for

  • Seasonal Assessment of Groundwater Contamination in Coal Mining Areas of Balochistan
    sustainability Article Seasonal Assessment of Groundwater Contamination in Coal Mining Areas of Balochistan Ayesha Ayub and Sheikh Saeed Ahmad * Department of Environmental Sciences, Fatima Jinnah Women University, The Mall, Rawalpindi 46000, Pakistan; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +923215167726 Received: 11 July 2020; Accepted: 18 August 2020; Published: 25 August 2020 Abstract: Balochistan is a semi-arid region. The assessment of water quality is very important, as the majority of people depend on groundwater for drinking purposes. The present study involves the quality assessment and mapping of drinking water in the five selected major coal mining sites in the four districts of Balochistan. A total of 50 samples were collected from these five coal mining sites in two seasons: i.e., summer and winter. A physicochemical analysis was carried out for groundwater - - 2+ samples: i.e., pH, electrical conductivity (EC), total dissolved solid (TDS), CO3, HCO3 , Cl , Ca , Mg2+, Na+,K+, Cd, Cr, Co, Cu, Fe, Pb, Mn, Hg, Ni, and Zn. Thematic maps were used to depict the spatial distribution of significant variables and were compared with WHO standards (2011) during both seasons. The majority of parameters crossed the safe permissible limit of WHO standards. The water quality index (WQI) was calculated for the whole monitoring data obtained from both seasons from the perspective of drinking water in each of the selected sites. Moreover, a principle component analysis (PCA) and correlation matrix was carried out for the data analysis in order to identify the source of pollution and correlation among the variables. The results suggested that the overall quality of water from the selected coal mining sites deteriorated due to the overexploitation of coal mines and mining activity.

  • The Tomb of Meer Buzerg at Barkhan, Balochistan: History and Architecture Shakir Naseer, Waheed Razzaq & Ghulam Farooq Baloch
    Ancient Pakistan, Vol. XXVII (2016) 79 The Tomb of Meer Buzerg at Barkhan, Balochistan: History and Architecture Shakir Naseer, Waheed Razzaq & Ghulam Farooq Baloch Abstract: District Barkhan is one of the neglected regions of Balochistan in terms of archeological and ethnological investigation, in which it is very rich. Recently in 2013, an exploratory team of Balochistan Study Center, University of Balochistan made a three-day archaeological exploration in Barkhan to record archaeological sites and monuments. Apart from other discoveries, the team also discovered an Islamic Period tomb. But proper documentation was carried out later on by the principal author. The tomb is situated in a small town about 15 km south west of Barkhan city. This is a 17th century tomb erected by the Mughal ruler Jahangir to entomb one of his brave generals who passed away while going to Kandahar. The history of this long march has been written by a Hindu historian Raie Bahadur Lala Aturam in his famous book Tarikh-e-Balochistan in 1903. He has also mentioned this tomb and the information pertaining to the buried personage. Architecturally this monument is octagon in plain. The octagonal architecture resembles the Tomb of Shah Rukn-e-Alam, Multan with its architectural elements as well the tombs of Lal Mara Sharif in DI Khan, Uchchh Sharif in Bahawalpur, and other pre-eminent Muslim Architectural shrines of Pakistan. Keywords: Balochistan, Sooran Barkhan, Tomb, Meer Buzerg, Tombstone, Architectural decoration. Introduction Nomenclature of Barkhan Barkhan has 1317 square miles area and is 1216 History shows that the name of this region kept ft above mean sea level.
