3. The key outcome envisaged from the project is “effective urban water service delivery model rolled out in selective urban clusters of the State with the objective of achieving the following performance indicators by the year 2022.

4. The Subproject. Pansemal, Rajpur, Karahi Padlya and Kasrawad are located respectively in the districts of Barwani and Khargone in the western part of Madhya Pradesh state. These are small towns having the status of Municipal Council (Nagar Parishad) and population as per 2011 census was: Karahi Padlya- 10700, Kasrawad- 22750, Pansemal – 12166 and Rajpur- 20947. Improvement of water supply in these four towns will be implemented under a single Design-Build-Operate (DBO) contract package. The objective of the subproject is to achieve safe and sustainable water services both in terms of services to customers, cost recovery, providing 100% coverage with continuous, pressurized and safe drinking water services and achieving progressively increasing cost recovery by expanding the coverage and increasing operating efficiency. The subproject includes the following civil works. a) Karahi Padlya: (i) Intake well on Narmada River, (ii) Water Treatment Plant (WTP) of 1.40 MLD; (iii) One Over Head Tank (OHT) of 200 KL capacity (L): (iv) Raw Water Transmission (v) Distribution network and (vi) consumer connections, and flow meters. b) Kasrawad: (i) Intake well on Narmada River, (ii) Water Treatment Plant (WTP) of 3.12 MLD; (iii) One Over Head Tank (OHT) of 115 KL capacity: (iv) Raw Water

3. Screening and assessment of potential impacts. ADB requires the consideration of environmental issues in all aspects of the Bank’s operations, and the requirements for environmental assessment are described in ADB’s Safeguard Policy Statement (SPS), 2009. As per the GoI EIA Notification, 2006, these subprojects do not require EIA study or environmental clearance. The potential environmental impacts of the subproject have been assessed using ADB Rapid Environmental Assessment Checklist for Water Supply. Then potential negative impacts were identified in relation to pre-construction, construction and operation of the improved infrastructure.

4. Categorization. Based on results of the assessment and ADB SPS, the subproject is classified as environmental Category B, i.e., the subproject is judged to be unlikely to have significant adverse environmental impacts. An initial environmental examination (IEE) is required to determine whether significant environmental impacts warranting an environmental impact assessment are likely.

5. Aim of this IEE is to (i) provide critical facts, significant findings, and recommended actions; (ii) present the national and local legal and institutional framework within which the environmental assessment has been carried out; (iii) provide information on existing geographic, ecological, social and temporal context including associated facilities within the subproject’s area of influence; (iv) assess the subproject’s likely positive and negative direct and indirect impacts to physical, biological, socioeconomic and physical cultural resources in the subproject’s area of influence; (v) identify mitigation measures and any residual negative impacts that cannot be mitigated; (vi) describe the process undertaken during project design to engage stakeholders and the planned information disclosure measures and the process for carrying out consultation with affected people and facilitating their participation during project implementation; (vii) describe the subproject’s grievance redress mechanism for resolving complaints about environmental performance; (viii) present the set of mitigation measures to be undertaken to avoid, reduce, mitigate, or compensate for adverse environmental impacts; (ix) to describe the monitoring measures and reporting procedures to ensure early detection of conditions that necessitate particular mitigation measures; and (x) identify indicative costs and who is responsible for carrying out the mitigation and monitoring measures.

6. Description of the Environment. The subproject includes the locations of Pansemal, Rajpur, Karahi Padlya and Kasrawad towns and their surroundings. In all the four towns intake wells will be proposed on river/reservoir banks on government lands, while the WTPs including clear water sumps are proposed close to the intake wells with sufficient government land. These components of the scheme are proposed away from the town and are mostly surrounded by agricultural lands and rivers/reservoirs. None of the components however proposed on any forest land. Other components like – Over head tanks, distribution pipeline network, domestic connections etc., are proposed within the limit of Municipal Boundary of the

9 town. The raw water transmission mains which are connecting intake well to WTP will be laid outside the town and clear water transmission mains from WTP to Over head tanks will be partly outside and partly within the Municipality limit. Project area experience a subtropical climate, typical to north India, hot summers, cold and dry winters and monsoon rains. While there is no natural habitat left within the town areas, the areas near river intake wells are comparatively intact though most of the lands there too converted into agricultural use. There are no protected areas, like wildlife sanctuaries, national parks, nor there did any historically, archeologically protect areas in the vicinity. Towns are densely populated in the core/old town areas with narrow lanes mostly covering the residential areas with small and closely built houses, while other expanding areas of the towns are having broad lanes and sufficient spaces. Commercial areas are along the main roads with broad lanes having running traffic for most of the time.

7. Potential environmental impacts. The subproject area will not arise any significant adverse impacts due to: (i) small size population and their water demand, (ii) components proposed in the schemes are of comparatively is of small quantities & their effect will be locally which is manageable and controllable and (iii) predicted impacts are site-specific and likely to be associated with the construction process and are produced because the process is invasive, involving excavation and earth movements.

8. Environmental impacts arise due to the project design or because of the locations chosen for the project components are not significant. The proposed water supply schemes include design of new water source which is the nearest surface water body, that include construction of intake well in water body. From the river Discharge Gauge analysis it is observed that minimum volume in Narmada River in last 10 years was 3937 MCM while the combine estimated requirement of the three towns (i.e Kasrawad, Rajpur and Karahi padlya) for the ultimate design year (2048) is only 2.77 MCM, which is only 0.0007%. Hence the Narmada River is adopted as sustainable water source for the proposed water supply schemes. For Pansemal WSS Gomai Dam is proposed water source whose dead storage capacity is 3 MCM, whereas highest tank level capacity is 6 MCM. The ultimate year water requirement of the town is only 0.34 MCM which is just 5% of HTL. Water quality is good and there are no potential pollution sources in the vicinity that could affect the water quality.

9. By the time of execution phase, potential negative impacts may arise from disturbance of residents, businesses, increase in traffic, increase in noise level and dusts and the need to dispose moderate quantities of waste soil during construction phase and generation of sludge from the WTP during operation and maintenance phase. However, there are well-developed methods for mitigation, minimization to acceptable levels are proposed here.

10. Environmental Management Plan As a part of mitigate measures in order to achieve acceptable levels in the negative impacts, an environmental management plan (EMP) has been proposed. All the locations are selected considering the minimum adverse environmental affects. These include (i) locating facilities on government-owned land to avoid the need for land acquisition and relocation of people; and (ii) laying of pipes in RoW alongside main/access roads, to reduce acquisition of land and impacts on livelihoods specifically in densely populated areas of the town.

11. The EMP given here includes the design measures for (i) safe disposal of sludge coming out of wash water tanks from WTP to reduce effluent (iii) energy efficient pumping equipment and (iv) quick leak detection and rectification to save the resources, etc. During execution phase, the EMP includes mitigation measures such as (i) implementation of traffic management plan in coordination with local traffic police to minimize traffic impacts (ii) 10 awareness campaigns and consultations to inform residents and businesses of potential disturbances; (iii) provision of walkways and planks over trenches to ensure access will not be impeded; (iv) use of noise-dampening measures in areas with sensitive receptors such as hospitals, schools, places of worships and other silence-zones; (v) use of dust-suppression methods such as watering and/or covering of stockpiles; and (vi) finding beneficial use of excavated materials to extent possible to reduce the quantity that will be disposed off. As for the O&M phase, facilities will need to be repaired from time to time, but environmental impacts will be much less than those of the construction period as the work will be infrequent, affecting small areas only. The design of the WTP includes dewatering and drying areas as part of sludge management. The EMP includes mitigation measures and monitoring plan to ensure compliance to environmental standards during O&M phase.

12. The EMP will guide the environmentally-sound construction of the subproject and ensure efficient lines of communication between Madhya Pradesh Urban Development Company (MPUDC), project management unit (PMU), project implementing unit (PIU), consultants and contractors. The EMP will (i) ensure that the activities are undertaken in a responsible non-detrimental manner; (i) provide a pro-active, feasible and practical working tool to enable the measurement and monitoring of environmental performance on site; (ii) guide and control the implementation of findings and recommendations of the environmental assessment conducted for the subproject; (iii) detail specific actions deemed necessary to assist in mitigating the environmental impact of the subproject; and (iv) ensure that safety recommendations are complied with. The EMP includes a monitoring program to measure the environmental condition and effectiveness of implementation of the mitigation measures.It will include observations on- and off-site, document checks, and interviews with workers and beneficiaries.

13. The contractor will be required to submit to PMU, for review and approval, a site environmental plan (SEP) including (i) proposed sites/locations for construction work camps, storage areas, hauling roads, lay down areas, disposal areas for solid and hazardous wastes; (ii) specific mitigation measures following the approved EMP; (iii) monitoring program as per SEP; and (iv) budget for SEP implementation. No works are allowed to commence prior to approval of SEP. A copy of the EMP/approved SEP will be kept on site during the construction period at all times. The EMP included in the bid and contract documents. Non-compliance with, or any deviation from, the conditions set out in this document constitutes a failure in compliance.

14. Consultation, disclosure and grievance redress mechanism. The stakeholders were involved in developing the IEE through discussions on-site and public consultation at several places in the town, after which views expressed were incorporated into the IEE and in the planning and development of the project. The IEE will be made available at public locations and will be disclosed to a wider audience via the ADB, MPUDC and PMU websites. The consultation process will be continued and expanded during project implementation to ensure that stakeholders are fully engaged in the project and have the opportunity to participate in its development and implementation. A grievance redress mechanism is described within the IEE to ensure any public grievances are addressed quickly.

15. Implementation Arrangements. Urban Development and Housing Department (UDHD) of Government of Madhya Pradesh is the Executing Agency and Madhya Pradesh Urban Development Company (MPUDC) is the Implementing Agency. Project Management Unit (PMU) attached to MPUDC is responsible for implementation, and will be supported by Program Implementation Units (PIUs). Several teams of Design Consultants, and a Program Management Consultant (PMC),will support PMU & PIUs. Infrastructure will be designed, built, and operated by DBO contractor for 10 years, after which it will be transferred to ULBs. Project Officer (Environment) at PMU and Assistant Safeguard Officer (ASO) at each of the PIU will be responsible for environment safeguards tasks, and will be supported by PMC. Contractor personnel will include an Environment, Health and Safety (EHS) supervisor.

16. Monitoring and Reporting. The PMU and PMC will be responsible for monitoring. The PMDC will submit quarterly and semi-annual monitoring reports to PMU, and the PMU will review and send the semi-annual monitoring reports to ADB. ADB will post the environmental monitoring reports on its website.

17. Conclusions and Recommendations. The subproject is therefore unlikely to cause significant adverse impacts. The potential impacts that are associated with design, construction and operation can be mitigated to standard levels without difficulty through proper engineering design and the incorporation or application of recommended mitigation measures and procedures. Based on the findings of the IEE, there are no significant impacts and the classification of the project as Category “B” is confirmed. No further special study or detailed environmental impact assessment (EIA) needs to be undertaken to comply with ADB SPS (2009) or GoI EIA Notification (2006). Project will require permission of Water Resources Department (WRD) for water abstraction, intake construction, and consent of Madhya Pradesh Pollution Control Board (MPPCB) for WTPs. These permissions/approvals shall be obtained prior to award of contracts.

18. This IEE will be updated during the detailed design stage by the DBO contractor to reflect any changes, amendments and will be reviewed and approved by PMU.

A detailed description of the components is provided in Section III.

A. Purpose of this IEE Report

6. ADB requires the consideration of environmental issues in all aspects of the Bank’s operations, and the requirements for environmental assessment are described in ADB’s Safeguard Policy Statement (SPS), 2009. The potential environmental impacts of the subproject have been assessed using ADB Rapid Environmental Assessment Checklist for Water Supply (Appendix 1). Then potential negative impacts were identified in relation to pre- construction, construction and operation of the improved infrastructure, and results of the assessment show that the subproject is unlikely to cause significant adverse impacts. Thus, this initial environmental examination (IEE) has been prepared in accordance with ADB SPS’s requirements for environment category B projects

7. To understand the environment-related aspects of the project, a detailed Environmental Analysis and Assessment study is required. The study will involve collection and analysis of information regarding the environmental issues related to the project and preparation of an Initial Environmental Examination (IEE) and Environmental Management Plan (EMP), to be duly integrated in the overall design of the project. The IEE study is expected to focus on the positive health and environmental benefits, through supply of safe drinking water and creation of integrated sanitary conditions in the project area/region. The proposed assessment study will suggest several environmental mitigation measures to be included in the project design, due to which the project is expected to have a net positive benefit for the people in the project area.

III. DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT A. Project Area 9. Project area comprises the urban areas and surroundings of Pansemal, Rajpur, Karahi Padlya & Kasrawad situated respectively in districts of Barwani & Khargone in western part of Madhya Pradesh state. Towns are located in adjoining district, and in a distance range of about 120-140 km from each other. As per the census 2011, , Karahi Padlya had a population of 10,035 and area 3.00 sq. Km, Kasrawad 22,750 and area 3.88 sq. km, Pansemal 12,166 area 6.14 sq.km and Rajpur 20,947 and area 9.00 sq. km.

10. Subproject components are located within the urban and surroundings. While intake well and WTPs are located outside the towns, all other components are located within the towns.

B. Existing Water Supply Situation 1. Karahi Padliya 11. Water supply system in Karhi is dependent on surface source (Gagan Talab) and ground water source in the form of tube wells. There is absence of dedicated water supply scheme as on today. The water is being supplied to the town, after preliminary treatment of chlorination. There are 2 nos. tube well, 2 nos. dug wells and three OHTs in Karhi. Condition of two overhead tanks are structurally good. Rest one overhead tank of 40 KL has damaged. Total water supply in the town is 0.50 MLD at the rate of 36 LPCD after transmission losses 20%. The supply is alternate day. There is an existing clear water pipe line of 160 mm dia. PVC pipe. The existing distribution systems (consists of GI and PVC pipes) cover the 40% town, while the rest of the town is dependent on hand pumps and mobile tankers.

2. Kasarawad 12. The water is being supplied to the town, after preliminary treatment of chlorination. There are 2 nos. tube well 2 nos. dug wells and three over head tanks in Karhi. Condition of two overhead tanks are structurally good. Rest one overhead tank of 40 KL has damaged. As a ground sources the town have 14 hand pumps and 3 tube wells with motor and pumps for drinking and non- drinking purposes. For storage system, there is 1 RCC over head tank in ward no. 14 having capacity of 4.5 Lac Lit. There is also 2 nos. of GSR one new and one old having new GSR capacity 800 KL and old GSR 300 KL. There is an existing raw water line 4000 m long dia. 200 mm CI pipe from Narmada river to Exiting water treatment plant. For treatment of raw water there is a WTP of capacity of 3.12 MLD on Nava todi raod. It is 15 years old and is in good condition. this WTP is taken into account for new system and it is sufficient for Kasrawad Nagar Parishad. Distribution system consists of GI, CI and PVC pipes. The duration and frequency of water supply is twenty minute on alternate day. Kasrawad Nagar Parishad has divided into 15 wards. The per capita supply of water is 35.52 lpcd at alternate day.

3. Pansemal

13. Presently 19 tube wells with power pumps are the main source of water supply in Pansemal. In addition there are 4 hand pumps. Overall 530 KL water is supplied daily in one hour through distribution networks. There are 2 over head tanks, one is 450 KL and other is 90 KL capacity. There is 135 public stand post and 1153 private connections. Almost all 15 wards are covered with water supply system. For the present population rate of supply is 40 lpcd which is much below the prescribed norm 70 lpcd. The existing supply 0.53 mld will be maintained up to ultimate stage with their pumping mains and tube wells.

14. As informed by the Pansemal Municipal authority, the existing distribution net work comprises of GI, MS and PVC. The details are not available. These pipes were laid from time 16 to time as and where required. These pipes may have been rusted being GI and MS and more than 35 years old. Therefore, these are not considered for laying new distribution system.

15. Overall, the current water supply systems in all the four facing similar issues predominantly resulting from receding groundwater sources, low coverage and unreliable supply, inadequate infrastructure and heavy water losses.

4. Rajpur 16. Presently the main sources for supplying drinking water in the town are the Narmada river and Narrula Talab. The tube wells are located in the various parts of the town. There are 5 tube wells which are used to supply water to the population. Apart from these there are 5 Hand pumps which are also located in various parts of the town. The per capita water supply per day is 35 LPCD (alternate days). There is 1.0 MLD capacity WTP at Narmada River. From Narmada River raw water is pumped through 200 mm dia. of DI pipe line. It is around 12 years old. From Narrula pond 200 mm dia of CI pipeline is used to bring the water. It is very old pipeline. Pipe line from Narrula Pond source has damaged at several places. There is an existing raw water line 6000 m long dia. 200 mm DI & 500 m CI pipe from Narmada river and Narrula pond to Exiting water treatment plant. Pipeline from Narmada River to existing WTP 6553 m long is in good condition and it will be used. For treatment of raw water there is a WTP of capacity of 1.00 MLD. According to design of WTP for intermediate year it comes 2.48 MLD and there is only 1.00 MLD capacity of WTP, hence there is proposed an additional WTP of 1.50 MLD capacity near existing WTP. Distribution system consists of 300 mm to 150 mm GI, CI, PVC, AC Pipes.

C. Proposed Project 17. As the water table is depleting all over, therefore, now it is not a reliable source for a permanent scheme in all the four towns. As part of this project, it is proposed to develop comprehensive water supply schemes in each of the four project towns. Proposals include new reliable water sources, water treatment plants, over head tanks, energy efficient pumping machinery, raw & clear water transmission mains and distribution network covering the whole town. Project will also provide consumer connections with flow meters. Bulk flow meters are proposed at strategic locations to monitor the system performance efficiency.

18. Following Table 1 shows the proposed water supply systems along with nature and size of components in four subproject towns. Figure 2 to Figure 11 show the proposed water systems, component layouts etc.

19. Project benefits. The subproject aims to achieve safe and sustainable water services both in terms of services to customers, cost recovery and conservation of precious water resources. The subproject will provide continuous, pressurized and safe drinking water services to entire population of the towns (100% coverage). Besides achieving progressively increasing cost recovery by expanding the coverage and increasing operating efficiency, the subproject will improve the overall environmental quality of the town. It will reduce the reduced time and costs of households in accessing alternative sources of water, and will lead to better public health particularly reduction in waterborne and infectious diseases.

20. After the approval of the detailed project report, bid will be prepared and tenders are likely to be invited by June 2016, and the contract will be awarded by December 2016. Construction is likely to start in April 2017, and will take about 24 months.

IV. POLICY, LEGAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE FRAMEWORK

A. ADB Policy

21. ADB requires the consideration of environmental issues in all aspects of ADB’s operations, and the requirements for environmental assessment are described in ADB SPS, 2009. This states that ADB requires environmental assessment of all ADB investments.

22. Screening and categorization. The nature of the environmental assessment required for a project depends on the significance of its environmental impacts, which are related to the type and location of the project; the sensitivity, scale, nature, and magnitude of its potential impacts; and the availability of cost-effective mitigation measures. Projects are screened for their expected environmental impacts, and are assigned to one of the following four categories:

(i) Category A. Projects could have significant adverse environmental impacts. An EIA is required to address significant impacts. (ii) Category B. Projects could have some adverse environmental impacts, but of lesser degree or significance than those in category A. An IEE is required to determine whether significant environmental impacts warranting an EIA are likely. If an EIA is not needed, the IEE is regarded as the final environmental assessment report. (iii) Category C. Projects are unlikely to have adverse environmental impacts. No EIA or IEE is required, although environmental implications are reviewed. (iv) Category FI. Projects involve a credit line through a financial intermediary or an equity investment in a financial intermediary. The financial intermediary must apply an environmental management system, unless all projects will result in insignificant impacts.

23. Environmental management plan. An EMP, which addresses the potential impacts and risks identified by the environmental assessment, shall be prepared. The level of detail and complexity of the EMP and the priority of the identified measures and actions will be commensurate with the project’s impact and risks.

24. Public disclosure. ADB will post the safeguard documents on its website as well as disclose relevant information in accessible manner in local communities:

(i) for environmental category A projects, draft EIA report at least 120 days before Board consideration; (ii) final or updated EIA and/or IEE upon receipt; and (iii) Environmental monitoring reports submitted by the implementing agency during project implementation upon receipt.

B. National Environmental Laws

25. Environmental Assessment. The GoI EIA Notification of 2006 (replacing the EIA Notification of 1994), sets out the requirement for Environmental Assessment in India. This states that Environmental Clearance (EC) is required for specified activities/projects, and EC must be obtained before any construction work or land preparation (except land acquisition) may commence. Projects are categorized as A or B1 or B2 depending on the scale of the project and the nature of its impacts. None of the components of this water supply subproject falls under the ambit of the EIA Notification 2006, and, therefore no category assigned, and thus no EIA study and EC required for the subproject.

26. Applicable environmental regulations. Besides EIA Notification 2006, there are various other acts, rules, policies and regulations currently in force in India that deal with environmental issues that could apply to infrastructure development. The specific regulatory compliance requirements of the subproject are shown in Table 2.

Table 2: Applicable Environmental Regulations Law Description Requirement Madhya Pradesh Prepared in accordance with the National Water Permission of WRD, State Water Policy, it states that “for environmental balance, GoMP: Policy, 2003 skillful and planned management of all types of developmental activities, economic use on • Construction of equitable basis and in view of the prime Intakes (River importance of water for all human and other living Narmada ) beings, an effective and sound water policy is • Construction of intake necessary”. at Gomai Dam Policy is detailed in 17 sections dealing with different aspects of water resources. No. 7 deals with Water Allocation Priorities, and according to which drinking water supply shall have the highest priority followed by irrigation, power, tourism, etc. Water Resource Department is nodal department for permitting different uses of water resources. Policy also states that “clear provision for reservation of drinking water shall be made in irrigation projects” Water (Prevention Act was enacted to provide for the prevention and WTPs require CTE (prior and Control of control of water pollution and the maintaining or to start of constriction) Pollution) Act of restoring of wholesomeness of water, by Central and CFO (prior to start of 1974, Rules of and State Pollution Control Boards and for operation) from MPPCB. 1975, and conferring and assigning to CPCB/SPCBs powers amendments &functions relating to water pollution control.

The contractor shall provide equal wages and benefits to men and women for work of equal value or type.

27. ADB SPS Requirements. During the design, construction, and operation of the project the PMU and PIUs are required to apply pollution prevention and control technologies and practices consistent with international good practice, as reflected in internationally recognized standards such as the World Bank Group’s Environment, Health and Safety Guidelines (IFC’s General EHS Guidelines1 and Sector Specific (Water and Sanitation) Guidelines2). These standards contain performance levels and measures that are normally acceptable and applicable to projects. When Government of India regulations differ from these levels and measures, the PMU and PIUs will achieve whichever is more stringent. If less stringent levels or measures are appropriate in view of specific project circumstances, the PMU and PIUs will provide full and detailed justification for any proposed alternatives that are consistent with the requirements presented in ADB SPS. International acceptable air and noise quality guidelines are provided below:

V. DESCRIPTION OF THE ENVIRONMENT

A. Methodology Used for Baseline Study

28. Data collection and stakeholder consultations. Focused Group Discussion, field visits, site surveys and social surveys were conducted through the different wards covering every section of society was conducted and data collected and analyzed accordingly with respect to the proposed subproject sites and the with respect to the need of water supply in all the four towns here.

29. The survey broadly covered the following:

(i) Project details, reports, maps, and other documents prepared by technical experts of design consultant team. (ii) Discussions with technical experts, municipal authorities and relevant government agencies like WRD, Revenue Department, Forest Department, MPPCB, etc. (iii) Secondary data from previous project reports & published articles, if any, and (iv) Literature on land use, soil, geology, hydrology, climate, socioeconomic, and planning documents collected from Government agencies and websites.

30. Ocular inspection. Several visits to the project sites were made during IEE preparation period in 2016 to assess the existing environment (physical, biological, and socioeconomic) and gather information with regard to the proposed sites and scale of the proposed project. A separate socioeconomic study was conducted to determine the demographic information, existing service levels, stakeholder needs and priorities.

VI. ANTICIPATED ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS AND MITIGATION MEASURES 33. Potential environmental impacts of the proposed infrastructure components are presented in this section. Measures to minimize/mitigate negative impacts, if any, are recommended along with the agency responsible for implementation. Monitoring actions to be conducted during the implementation phase is also recommended.

34. Screening of potential environmental impacts are categorized into four categories considering subproject phases: location impacts and design impacts (pre-construction phase), construction phase impacts and operations and maintenance phase impacts.

a. Location impacts include impacts associated with site selection and include loss of on-site biophysical array and encroachment either directly or indirectly on adjacent environments. It also includes impacts on people who will lose their livelihood or any other structures by the development of that site. b. Design impacts include impacts arising from Investment Program design, including technology used, scale of operation/throughput, waste production, discharge specifications, pollution sources and ancillary services. c. Construction impacts include impacts caused by site clearing, earthworks, machinery, vehicles and workers. Construction site impacts include erosion, dust, noise, traffic congestion and waste production. d. O&M impacts include impacts arising from the operation and maintenance activities of the infrastructure facility. These include routine management of operational waste streams, and occupational health and safety issues.

35. Screening of environmental impacts has been based on the impact magnitude (negligible/moderate/severe – in the order of increasing degree) and impact duration (temporary/permanent).

36. This section of the IEE reviews possible project-related impacts, in order to identify issues requiring further attention and screen out issues of no relevance. ADB SPS (2009) require that impacts and risks will be analyzed during pre-construction, construction, and operational stages in the context of the project’s area of influence.

37. The ADB Rapid Environmental Assessment Checklist in http://www.adb.org/documents/guidelines/environmental_assessment/eaguidelines002.aspis used to screen project for environmental impacts and to determine the scope of the IEE.

38. In the case of this project (i) most of the individual elements are relatively small and involve straightforward construction and operation, so impacts will be mainly localized and not greatly significant;(ii) proposed water abstraction from the sources is very small compared to overall water availability (iii) most of the predicted impacts are associated with the construction process, and are produced because that process is invasive, involving excavation and earth movements; and some works are located in the reservoir and (iv) being mostly located in an urban area, will not cause direct impact on biodiversity values. The proposed project components locations are belongs to the government property and existing roads, hence land acquisition and encroachment on private property will not happen in this case. A. Pre-Construction Impacts – Design & Location

39. Design of the Proposed Components. Technical design of the (i) intake well, , (ii) water treatment plant; (iii) raw water and clear water transmissions mains (iv) over head tanks, and (v) distribution network, connections, flow meters, etc., follows the relevant national planning and design guidelines, focusing on providing a robust system which is easy to operate, sustainable, efficient and economically viable. Besides, the project also included the following environmental considerations:

(i) Recovering backwash water from treatment process and achieving zero discharge of wastewater from WTPs. (ii) Treatment and disposal management of sludge from treatment process. (iii) Minimizing water losses from pipelines by perfect jointing and alignments using appropriate techniques (iv) Designing the entire system to maintain optimal flow and terminal pressure, and optimising the overall energy usage (v) Reducing the incidence of water borne diseases by providing 100% population including urban poor with potable water supplies (vi) Improve water use efficiency and reduce water wastage at household level by recording and monitoring the water usage, and charging the consumers as per usage; due consideration to urban poor (vii) Minimize unaccounted for water (UFW) losses using district metered area approach with flow meter and pressure logging arrangements to identify and rectify the leaks, and unauthorized connections (viii) Using low-noise and energy efficient pumping systems

40. Water Source & Sustainability. As the subproject towns are located far from each other (100-150 km) there was no possibility of a combined source/ bulk water scheme. Therefore, independent water supply schemes are proposed for 4 towns separately based on the most feasible water source considering techno-economic and environmental considerations as elucidated below (Table 9).

Gomai Dam Pansemal water requirement is just about 0.95 MLD, which can be easily met by the Dam.

Dam water sustainability and environmental considerations. The gross storage capacity of Gomai reservoir is 6 MCM, while the water requirement for the project is 0.95 MLD or 0.34 MCM per year, which is about 5.6%.

The manufacturer year of Gomai dam is 2015 and the impoundment of water in Gomai dam was started in the year 2016-17, and water level records are available from 2017. Maximum water level was recorded in the monsoon period of 2017, during which, as per the local information, the dam was overflown for about 18 days.

Salient Feature of River Narmada 41. Narmada basin extends over states of Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat, Maharashtra and Chhattisgarh having an area of 98,796 Sq.km which is nearly 3% of the total geographical area of the country with maximum length and width of 923 & 161 km. It lies between 72°38’ to 81°43’ east longitudes and 21°27’ to 23°37’ north latitudes. It is bounded by the Vindhyas on the north, by the Maikala range on the east, by the Satpuras on the south and by the Arabian Sea on the west. The hilly regions are in the upper part of the basin, and lower middle reaches are broad and fertile areas well suited for cultivation. Narmada is the largest west flowing river of the peninsular India. It rises from Maikala range near Amarkantak in Anuppur district of Madhya Pradesh, at an elevation of about 1057 m. The total length of the river is 1,312 km and for the first 1079 km it flows in Madhya Pradesh and thereafter forms the common boundary between Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra for 35 km, and Maharashtra and Gujarat for 39 km. In Gujarat State it stretches for 159 km. Its important tributaries are the Burhner, the Banjar, the Sher, the Shakkar, the Dudhi, the Tawa , the Ganjal, the Kundi, the Goi and the Karjan which joins from left whereas the Hiran, the Tendoni, the Barna, the Kolar, the Man, the Uri, the Hatni and the Orsang joins from right. Narmada drains into the Arabian Sea through the Gulf of Khambhat. The major part of basin is covered with agriculture accounting to 56.90%. Water bodies cover 2.95% of the total basin area. The basin spreads over 20 parliamentary constituencies (2009) comprising 15 of Madhya Pradesh, 3 of Gujarat, and 1 each of Chhattisgarh and Maharashtra. The Narmada Water Disputes Tribunal has allocated the Narmada water amongst the States as below: Madhya Pradesh – 18.25 Million Acre Feet Gujarat -- 9.0 Million Acre Feet Rajasthan –0.5 Million Acre Feet Maharashtra – 28.0 Million Acre Feet

42. Use of Chlorine as disinfectant. It is proposed to use chlorine at WTPs for disinfection of treated water prior to supply to consumers. There is invariably a safety risk when chlorine is handled. Safety precautions are necessary to ensure the safety of workers and citizens. To avoid any risk, the chlorination facility will be provided with the following:

(i) Chlorine neutralization pit with a lime slurry feeder (ii) Proper ventilation, lighting, entry and exit facilities (iii) Facility for isolation in the event of major chlorine leakage (iv) Personal protection and safety equipment for the operators in the chlorine plant (v) Provide training to the staff in safe handling and application of chlorine; this shall be included in the contract of Chlorinator supplier (vi) Supplier of Chlorinator equipment shall provide standard operating manual for safe operation and as well as maintenance and repairs; preferably these shall be provided both in English and Hindi Languages

43.

44. Sensitive project locations. None of the subproject components are located in the forest areas, nor is any pipeline aligned through the forests.

45. Similarly proposed works in the river bed (intake) may damage the river bed, lead to degradation of water quality due to increase in turbidity and contamination from fuels and lubricant used in construction work. Increase in silt content and water turbidity, chemical quality can affect the aquatic life. Measures are included in the EMP to avoid, minimize these impacts.

46. Removal of trees and vegetation will be minimize by best alignment and layout planning of facilities, however, this cannot be avoided fully. Appropriate measures in terms of compensatory tree plantation is included in the EMP.

47. Utilities. Telephone lines, electric poles and wires, water lines within the proposed project locations may require to be shifted in few cases. To mitigate the adverse impacts due to relocation of the utilities, the contractor, in collaboration with ULB will be required to implement appropriate measures. These are given in the EMP.

48. Site selection of construction work camps, stockpile areas, storage areas, and disposal areas. Priority is to locate these near the project location. However, if it is deemed necessary to locate elsewhere, sites to be considered will not promote instability and result in destruction of property, vegetation, irrigation, and drinking water supply systems. Residential areas will not be considered for setting up construction camps to protect the human environment (i.e., to curb accident risks, health risks due to air and water pollution and dust, and noise, and to prevent social conflicts, shortages of amenities, and crime). Extreme care will be taken to avoid disposals near forest areas, water bodies, or in areas which will

49. Site selection of sources of materials. Significant quantities of coarse aggregate and 62 fine aggregate will be required for construction works. Requirement of gravel is limited. Contractor should procure these materials only from the quarries permitted/licensed by Mines and Geology Department. Contractor should, to the maximum extent possible, procure material from existing quarries, and creation of new quarry areas should be avoid as far as possible. It will be the construction contractor’s responsibility to verify the suitability of all material sources and to obtain the approval of Department of Mines & Geology and local revenue administration.

B. Environmental Audit of Existing Water Treatment Plant 50. There is an existing WTP in Kasrawad of capacity 3.12 MLD, which will be used for the project with necessary improvements. At present no improvements or rehabilitation of this existing WTP is proposed, however, the working of WTP will be further reviewed by DBO Contractor during detailed design phase, and improvements, if any required, will be undertaken. As per the ADB SPS 2009, this is an associated facility and therefore the component operation shall comply with the ADB and applicable environmental laws of India. A review of environmental performance of WTP is conducted to (i) assess the compliance of the existing WTP with environmental legislations; (ii) improve environmental performance; and (iii) increase the Kasrawad Nagar Parishad knowledge, thus increasing its ability to continually improve and minimize future potential liabilities. A more detailed environmental audit and risk assessment shall be carried out during detailed design stage. Treated water quality laboratory report of WTP (Appendix 14) shows that all the tested physio-chemical parameters are in compliance with the drinking water standards.

Table 14: Salient Features of Kasrawad WTP Location Near Nava Todi road Start of operation (year) 2002 Owned by Kasrawad Nagar Parishad Capacity 3.12 million liters per day (MLD) Water supply source Narmada River Water treatment process Treatment process: The treatment process is conventional, and has following units: Coagulation flocculation, chemical dosing, filtration. Materials: All civil structures are made of reinforced cement concrete, and mechanical units like the clariflocculator bridge, etc. are of mild steel. Backwash water and -filter backwash water is let into open drains as there is no sludge management recycling of backwash into inlet - the settled sludge from the bottom of the clarifiers is periodically flushed into the drains. -This practice of discharge of backwash and sludge directly into the drains, wastes water, pollutes and silts receiving water bodies. -the untreated backwash and sludge flushing ultimately reaches disposed into nearby water body which is flowing near the site. Chlorination system Presently Chlorination system is not functioning, because ULB staff is not well aware of working of Chlorination system. Also Chlorine dosage system is not proper; there are no safety precautions in place. No safety systems like leak detection or emergency alarm or lime slurry pit available in the facility. Operators are not aware of safety measures or actions to be performed during any emergency. safety equipment like masks and oxygen cylinders are provided at the facility, but are not in usable condition. There have no instances of any chlorine gas leakage till date as reported by the 63

local WTP staff.

Table 15: Compliance with Applicable National and State Regulations Act / Rule Clearance requirement Compliance Status of WTP EIA Notification The EIA Notification of 2006 and N/A 2009 (replacing the EIA Notification of 1994) states that Environmental clearance is not environmental clearance is required as WTPs are not listed in required for certain defined the EIA Notification’s “Schedule of activities/projects.

Poor handling of chlorination Improvements to Same as above MPUDC and system and lack of safety chlorination already MPUSIP funds measures included in the subproject.

C. Construction Impacts 52. Construction works. Civil works in the project include linear excavation for laying pipes along the roads, placing pipes in the trench and refilling with the excavated soil. The trenches will be of 0.4 m – 0.7 m wide and 0.8 to 1 m depth. Subsequent to completion of works, road reinstatement will be undertaken by the contractor as part of the civil works. The roads in the core city area of all the towns are very narrow and congested with pedestrians and vehicles (mainly 2-wheelers), while the roads in outer areas are wide.

53. Earth work excavation will be undertaken by machine (backhoe excavator) or manually and include danger lighting and using barricades at every 100 m.. Sufficient care will be taken while laying so that existing utilities and cables are not damaged and pipes are not thrown into the trenches or dragged, but carefully laid in the trenches. As trenches are a maximum of 1.2 m, there is no risk of collapse of trenches or risk to surrounding buildings. Once they are laid, pipes will be joined as per specification and then tested for any cracks of leakages. The minimum working hours will be 8 hours daily, the total duration of each stage depends on the soil condition and other local features. About 95% of the excavated soil will be used for refilling the refilling the trench after placing the pipe and therefore residual soil after pipe laying and refilling is not significant. This excel soil shall be used for construction.

54. Other civil works in the subproject include construction of intake cum pump house on the river bank, raw water pumping station including laying of water intake pipe, water treatment plants, overhead tanks identified sites. These works will be confined to sites, and construction will include general activities like excavation for foundation, construction of foundations, columns, walls and roof in cement concrete and masonry, and fixing of mechanical and electrical fixtures, etc.

55. Although construction of these project components involves quite simple techniques of civil work, the invasive nature of excavation and the project locations in the built-up areas of 65 the town where there are a variety of human activities, will result in impacts to the environment and sensitive receptors such as residents, businesses, and the community in general. The following are anticipated impacts, which are temporary and for short duration:

(i) Dust and air emissions from construction activities and equipment / vehicles affecting the ambient air quality (ii) Impacts on natural drainage, surface water bodies due to disposal of construction waste and silt / chemical laden run off from work areas (iii) Impacts on river eco-system due to river bed construction (iv) Impacts due to disposal of surplus soil, construction waste, debris etc., (v) Impacts due to noise and vibration from consultation activities (vi) Impacts due to collection of groundwater in trenches & disposal of the same (vii) Impact/public inconvenience/ accessibility issues due to excavation on public roads (narrow old town roads), movement of trucks carrying construction material (viii) Impacts on business, activities, people due to loss/restricted access to public/private/business/sensitive areas (schools, hospitals), etc., (ix) Occupation health and safety impacts on workers (x) Health Impacts due to removal of existing AC (asbestos cement) pipes (xi) Community health and safety impacts due to construction in an urban area (xii) Impacts due to establishment/operation of temporary construction camps

56. The above impacts are typical for construction in urban areas, and therefore are common to all the four subproject towns. These are negative but short-term and reversible by mitigation measures. There are well-developed and proven measures and construction practices to avoid, mitigate and/or minimize these impacts to acceptable levels. These measures are given in the construction phase EMP applicable to all four towns.

D. Operation and Maintenance Impacts

57. Operation and Maintenance of the water supply system will be carried out by the DBO Contractor for 10 years, and after which the respective municipalities will operate and maintain the infrastructure. During the system design life (15/30 years for mechanical/civil components),it shall not require major repairs or refurbishments and should operate with little maintenance beyond routine actions required to keep the equipment in working order. The stability and integrity of the system will be monitored periodically to detect any problems and allow remedial action if required. Any repairs will be small-scale involving manual, temporary, and short-term works involving regular checking and recording of performance for signs of deterioration, servicing and replacement of parts.

58. Recurrence of pipe bursting and leakage problems can be managed by the leak detection and water auditing surveys. The ULBs will be required to ensure that the leak detection and rectification time is minimized.

59. Provision for recirculation system for filter backwash – backwash water from filter beds will be sent to a storage tank, and after allowing adequate time for settlement of solids, clarified water will be pumped to WTP inlet. This arrangement will avoid pollution and also minimize wastage of water. Water treatment process will generate sludge from sedimentation of particulate matter in raw water, flocculated and precipitated material resulting from chemical coagulation, residuals of excess chemical dosage, plankton etc; and waste from rinsing and back washing of filter media containing debris, chemical precipitates, straining of organic debris and plankton. Accumulated sludge from Tube Settler, filter backwash etc., will be disposed-off at sludge drying beds for natural drying. Dried sludge will be disposed off in a land fill or used as soil conditioner if it is suitable 66

E. Project benefits 60. During the construction phase, there are likely to be positive impacts through employment generation, increase in local revenue from the project activities. During the operation phase also, there is potential for employment generation, though limited, as the improved and expanded water infrastructure requires additional workforce.

61. The citizens of Pansemal, Rajpur, Karahi Padliya & Kasrawad will be the major beneficiaries of the improved water supply system, as they will be provided with a constant supply of better quality water, piped into their homes at an appropriate pressure. The project will improve the over-all health condition of the towns as water borne diseases will be reduced, so people should spend less on healthcare and lose fewer working days due to illness, so their economic status should also improve, as well as their overall health. This should also improve the environment of these areas, should deliver major improvements in individual and community health and well-being.

VII. PUBLIC CONSULTATION AND INFORMATION DISCLOSURE

A. Overview

62. The active participation of stakeholders including local community, NGOs/CBOs, and the media in all stages of project preparation and implementation is essential for successful implementation of the project. It will ensure that the subprojects are designed, constructed, and operated with utmost consideration to local needs, ensures community acceptance, and will bring maximum benefits to the people. Public consultation and information disclosure is a must as per the ADB policy.

63. Most of the main stakeholders have already been identified and consulted during preparation of this IEE, and any others that are identified during project implementation will be brought into the process in the future. Primary stakeholders of the subproject are: residents, shopkeepers and businesspeople who live and work alongside the roads in which network improvements will be provided and near sites where facilities will be built (WTP and over head tanks), and government and utility agencies responsible for provision of services in Pansemal, Rajpur, Karahi Padliya & Kasrawad ,WRD, Revenue Department, Forest Department (FD), and MPPCB, etc., Secondary stakeholder are: NGOs and CBOs working in the area, community representatives, beneficiary community in general, government agencies, the executing and implementing agencies (MPUDC, PMU and PIUs), Government of India and the ADB. Details of Consultation at each town enclosed in appendix 8.

B. Public Consultation

64. The public consultation and disclosure program is a continuous process throughout the project implementation, including project planning, design and construction.

1. Consultation during Project Preparation

65. Institutional consultations were conducted with the relevant Governmental Departments such as WRD, RD, MPPCB, FD, etc. The subproject proposals are formulated in consultation with Pansemal, Rajpur, Karahi Padliya & Kasrawad Nagar Parishads to suit the requirements of the respective towns.

66. Focus-group discussions with affected persons and other stakeholders were conducted to learn their views and concerns. The household survey was designed, conducted and executed with multiple objectives to identify areas requiring critical interventions, set priorities, assess ground realities, gather information and engage the local communities, build trust and seek first hand insights. The goal is to accelerate the process of addressing the root causes and implement the most appropriate development processes using sustainable.

67. The goal of the survey was to gather data, insights and information that will help us to prepare an Execution Plan for the water supply augmentation scheme for all the four towns. The Survey was conducted with the help of members of the local communities and residents of the area under supervision and guidance.

68. The people are willing to extend their cooperation as the activities are proposed to improve the water supply service levels and the living standards. Stakeholder expressed their concern regarding water charges, affordability, disturbance and loss of business due to the work in market area (dust, road closure etc.). The project team explained the proposed mitigation measures to mitigate / minimize such issues.

2. Consultation during construction

69. Prior to start of construction, ULB and PIU with the assistance of PMC will conduct information dissemination sessions at various places and solicit the help of the local community, leaders/prominent for the project work. At each ward/neighborhood level, focus group meetings will be conducted to discuss and plan construction work with local communities to reduce disturbance and other impacts.

70. A constant communication will be established with the affected communities to redress the environmental issues likely to surface during construction phases and also regarding the grievance redress mechanism. ULB/PIU and PMC will organize public meetings and will appraise the communities about the progress on the implementation of EMP. Meeting will also be organized at the potential hotspots/sensitive locations before and during the construction.

C. Information Disclosure

71. Executive summary of the IEE will be translated in Hindi and made available at the offices of PMU, PIU, Nagar Parishad offices, and also displayed on their notice boards. Hard copies of the IEE will be accessible to citizens as a means to disclose the document and at the same time creating wider public awareness. Electronic version of the IEE in English and Executive Summary in Hindi will be placed in the official website of the MPUDC, PMU after approval of the IEE by Government and ADB. Stakeholders will also be made aware of grievance register and redress mechanism.

72. Public information campaigns to explain the project details to a wider population will be conducted. Public disclosure meetings will be conducted at key project stages to inform the public of progress and future plans. Prior to start of construction, the PMU/PIU will issue Notification on the start date of implementation in local newspapers A board showing the details of the project will be displayed at the construction site for the information of general public.

73. Local communities will be continuously consulted regarding location of construction camps, access and hauling routes and other likely disturbances during construction. The road closure together with the proposed detours will be communicated via advertising, pamphlets, radio broadcasts, road signage, etc.

VIII. GRIEVANCE REDRESS MECHANISM

A. Project Specific Grievance Redress Mechanism

74. A program-specific grievance redress mechanism (GRM) shall be established to receive, evaluate, and facilitate the resolution of AP’s concerns, complaints, and grievances about the social and environmental performance at the level of the project. The following GRM provides a time-bound and transparent mechanism to voice and resolve social and environmental concerns linked to the project.

75. A common GRM will be in place for social, environmental, or any other grievances related to the project. The GRM will provide an accessible and trusted platform for receiving and facilitating resolution of affected persons’ grievances related to the program. The multi-tier GRM for the project is outlined below, each tier having time-bound schedules and with responsible persons identified to address grievances and seek appropriate persons’ advice at each stage, as required. ULB-wide public awareness campaigns will ensure that awareness on grievance redress procedures is generated through the campaign.

76. Who can complain: A complaint may be brought by persons who are, or could be, “directly, indirectly, materially, and adversely” affected by the project. A complaint can be submitted on behalf of the affected person/people by a representative, provided that he or she identifies the affected person/people and includes evidence of the authority to act on their behalf.

77. What the Grievance/Complain should contain: Any concerns pertaining to safeguard compliance - environment, involuntary resettlement, indigenous people, design related issues, compensation, service delivery or any other issues or concerns related to the project. The complaint must contain name, date, address/contact details of the complainant, location of the problem area, along with the problem.

78. Where to file a Complaint: Complainants will have the flexibility of conveying grievances/suggestions by dropping grievance redress/suggestion forms in complaints/suggestion boxes to be installed by project at respective Nagar Parishad Offices, PIU offices or by e-mail or by writing in a complaints register in the PIU offices or at construction site offices.

79. How to file a Complaint: The application should be precise and specific. The application can be sent either by post or through electronic means or deliver personally. A sample grievance form is at Appendix 9.

(i) Offline System - The application can be made on the application form available at all accessible places (NPs/ Office of PIUs/ construction site offices). The application should have the name and complete postal address of the applicant. (ii) Online System - Grievances pertaining to the implementation of the project can also be filed online at the website of MPUDC/PMU or by e-mails.

80. Documentation: Documentation of the complaints is important and must contain name of the complainant, date of receipt of the complaint, address/contact details of the person, location of the problem area, and how the problem was resolved. PMU with the support of PIU will have the overall responsibility for timely grievance redress, and for registration of grievances, related disclosure, and communication with the aggrieved party. All the documents made available to the public at the community level (at ward offices) and will include information on the contact number, address and contact person for registering grievances, and will be disseminated throughout the project area by the PIU.

81. Grievance/Problem Redress through Participatory Process: Efforts must be made 70 by the PIU with the support of safeguard consultants to resolve problems amicably, conflicts through participatory process with the community and the Nagar Parishads. In case of grievances that are immediate and urgent in the perception of the complainant, the Contractor, and supervision personnel from the PIU will provide the most easily accessible or first level of contact for the quick resolution of grievances. Contact phone numbers and names of the concerned staff and contractors, will be posted at all construction sites at visible locations.

82. Following process will be followed:

(i) 1st level grievance. In case of grievances that are immediate and urgent in the perception of the complainant, PMC supervising staff will direct the contractor to and ensures that it is resolved. If the grievance is not under the contractor scope, but under the program, PMC (field office) will resolve this issue. All the grievances should be resolved within 3 days of receipt of a complaint/grievance.

(ii) 2nd level grievance. All grievances that cannot be redressed at first level within 3 days will be brought to the notice of PIU and PMC Assistant Environmental Specialist. PIU will review the grievance and act appropriately to resolve it within 10 days of receipt.

(iii) 3rd level grievance. All the grievances that are not addressed at 2nd level by PIU within in 10 days of receipt will be brought to the notice of notice of the Grievance Redressal Committee (GRC)3. GRC will meet twice a month and determine the merit of each grievance brought to the committee. The GRC will resolve the grievance within 1 month of receiving the complaint. All decisions taken by the GRC will be communicated to complainant by the Nodal Officer.

83. The project GRM notwithstanding, an aggrieved person shall have access to the country's legal system at any stage, and accessing the country's legal system can run parallel to accessing the GRM and is not dependent on the negative outcome of the GRM. Alternatively, if the grievance is related to land acquisition, resettlement & rehabilitation4, the APs can approach the Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Authority (LARRA) of Madhya Pradesh, established under the Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation, and Resettlement Act, 2013.

84. Record-keeping. PIU will keep records of grievances received, corrective actions taken and the final outcome. The number of grievances recorded and resolved and the outcomes will be displayed/disclosed in the PIU office, ULB offices, and on the web.

3 Grievance redress committee (GRC) will be formed at town-level with members composed of: ULB Chairperson, ULB CMO, Environmental Specialist of PMC, PIU Dy.PM and PIU Community Development Officer. 4 the Authority admits grievance only with reference to the LA and R&R issues under the new Act 71

IX. ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN

A. Implementation Arrangements

85. Urban Development and Environment Department (UDED) of Government of Madhya Pradesh will be the Executing Agency for the Program, responsible for management, coordination and execution of all activities funded under the loan. Implementing Agency will be the recently established Madhya Pradesh Urban Development Company (MPUDC), a wholly owned subsidiary of GoMP. A central Project Management Unit (PMU) attached to MPUDC will be responsible for implementing the MPUSIP. The PMU will be supported by Program Implementation Units (PIUs) with flexibility to redeployment depending upon the implementation requirements.

86. The PMU and PIUs will be supported by several teams of Design Consultants in preparation of preliminary engineering designs.

87. Water Resource Review Committee (WRRC) is constituted to undertake a thorough review of the source when recommended by the Design Consultant in regard to techno- economic feasibility and sustainability especially ensuring climate change resilience, and Technical Review Committee (TRC) to review and approve the preliminary designs developed by the Design Consultants.

88. Program Management Consultant (PMC) centrally located in PMU and with field teams located in PIUs shall be responsible for implementation of the Program. All infrastructure contracts will be procured through performance-based contracts (PBCs) and include build- operate (BO) framework. Based on the preliminary designs prepared by Design Consultants, the DBO (design-build-operate) Contractor will design, construct, commission and operate for 10 years, after which it will be transferred to the respective ULB.

89. Two Committees - an Empowered Committee cum Executive Committee and a Technical Clearance and Tender Committee have been constituted by the Government to be responsible for effective and timely implementation of the Program.

90. Safeguards. At PMU, there will be two safeguard specialists: (i) Project Officer (Environment) and (ii) Social & Gender Offer, who will responsible for compliance with the environmental and social safeguards in program implementation. PO (Environment) will have overall responsibility in implementation of the investment program as per the Environmental Assessment & Review Framework (EARF) agreed between ADB and the government. At individual subproject level, PO will ensure that environmental assessment is conducted, and a project-specific is prepared and implemented, and the compliance, and corrective actions, if any are reported as required.

B. Environmental Management Plan

91. An environmental management plan (EMP) has been developed to provide mitigation measures to reduce all negative impacts to acceptable levels.

92. The EMP will guide the environmentally-sound construction of the subproject and ensure efficient lines of communication between MPUDC, project management unit (PMU), project implementing unit (PIU), consultants and contractors. The EMP will (i) ensure that the activities are undertaken in a responsible non-detrimental manner; (i) provide a pro-active, feasible and practical working tool to enable the measurement and monitoring of environmental performance on site; (ii) guide and control the implementation of findings and recommendations of the environmental assessment conducted for the subproject; (iii) detail 72 specific actions deemed necessary to assist in mitigating the environmental impact of the subproject; and (iv) ensure that safety recommendations are complied with. The EMP includes a monitoring program to measure the environmental condition and effectiveness of implementation of the mitigation measures. It will include observations on- and off-site, document checks, and interviews with workers and beneficiaries.

93. The contractor will be required to submit to PIU, for review and approval, a site environmental plan (SEP) including (i) proposed sites/locations for construction work camps, storage areas, hauling roads, lay down areas, disposal areas for solid and hazardous wastes; (ii) specific mitigation measures following the approved EMP; (iii) monitoring program as per SEP; and (iv) budget for SEP implementation. No works are allowed to commence prior to approval of SEP.

94. A copy of the EMP/approved SEP will be kept on site during the construction period at all times. The EMP included in the bid and contract documents. Non-compliance with, or any deviation from, the conditions set out in this document constitutes a failure in compliance.

95. For civil works, the contractor will be required to (i) carry out all of the mitigation and monitoring measures set forth in the approved SEP; and (ii) implement any corrective or preventative actions set out in safeguards monitoring reports that the employer will prepare from time to time to monitor implementation of this IEE and SEP. The contractor shall allocate budget for compliance with these SEP measures, requirements and actions.

96. The following tables show the potential environmental impacts, proposed mitigation measures and responsible agencies for implementation and monitoring.

E. Monitoring and Reporting

101. During the detailed design stage, DBO Contractor should confirm PMU the mobilization of Environmental Expert for IEE update and integrating design stage EMP into designs.

102. Prior to commencement of the works, the contractor will submit a compliance report to PIU that all identified pre-construction mitigation measures as detailed in the EMP are undertaken. Contractor should confirm EHS supervisor is mobilized and EHS coordinators are designated for each town for effective implementation of the EMU. PMU with the assistance of the PMC will review the report and permit commencement of works.

103. During construction, results from internal monitoring by the contractor will be reflected in their monthly EMP implementation reports to the PIU. PMU will review and advise contractors for corrective actions if necessary. Quarterly report summarizing compliance and corrective measures taken will be prepared by PMC field team at PIU and submitted to PMU (Appendix 13). During operation, the contractor will conduct management and monitoring actions as per the operation stage EMP, and submit to PMU and ULB a quarterly report on EMP implementation and compliance.

104. Based on monthly & quarterly reports and measurements, PMU will submit to ADB, semi-annual (6-monthly) Environmental Monitoring Reports (EMR).Once concurrence from the ADB is received the report will be disclosed on the MPUDC and PMU websites.

105. ADB will review project performance against the MPUSIP commitments as agreed in the legal documents. The extent of ADB’s monitoring and supervision activities will be

commensurate with the project’s risks and impacts. Monitoring and supervising of social and environmental safeguards will be integrated into the project performance management system

F. EMP Implementation Cost

106. Most of the mitigation measures require the contractors to adopt good site practice, which should be part of their normal procedures already, so there are unlikely to be major costs associated with compliance. The costs which are specific to EMP implementation and are not covered elsewhere in the projects are given below. The total costs are estimated at INR 2.43 million, which are to be covered by contractor costs.

X. CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS 107. The process described in this document has assessed the environmental impacts of all elements of the Pansemal, Rajpur, Karahi Padliya and Kasrawad water supply improvement subproject. All potential impacts were identified in relation to pre-construction, construction, and operation phases. Planning principles and design considerations have been reviewed and incorporated into the site planning and design process wherever possible; thus, environmental impacts as being due to the project design or location were not significant.

108. Although none of the components are located within the forest, conduct of construction works and presence of workers, vehicles may damage /disturb the sensitive areas. Necessary precautionary measures are suggested to avoid any impacts.

109. During the construction phase, impacts mainly arise from the construction dust and noise, the need to dispose of large quantities of waste soil and import of construction material, and from the disturbance of residents, businesses, traffic and important buildings by the construction work. The social impacts (access disruptions) due to construction activities are unavoidable, as the residential and commercial establishments exist along the roads where pipes will be laid. As some of the works are conducted in rive, there is a risk of water contamination, river bed damage, etc.. Appropriate measures are suggested.

110. Anticipated impacts of water supply during operation and maintenance will be related to detection and repair of leaks, pipe bursts. These are, however, likely to be minimal, as proper design and selection of good quality pipe material shall mean that leaks are minimal. Leak repair work will be similar to the pipe-laying work. Appropriate measures to deal with backwash water and sludge from WTP is included in the project design. Application and handling of chlorine gas will involve certain risks, and appropriate measures are suggested for safe application. The DBO Contractor will implement the operation stage EMP during contract period.

111. The public participation processes undertaken during project design ensured stakeholders are engaged during the preparation of the IEE. The planned information disclosure measures and process for carrying out consultation with affected people will facilitate their participation during project implementation.

112. The project’s grievance redress mechanism will provide the citizens with a platform to redress of their grievances, and describes the informal and formal channels, time frame, and mechanisms for resolving complaints about environmental performance.

113. The EMP will assist the PMU, PIU, PMC and DBO contractor in mitigating the environmental impacts, and guide them in the environmentally sound execution of the proposed project.

114. A copy of the EMP/approved SEP shall be kept on-site during the construction period at all times. The EMP shall be made binding on all contractors operating on the site, and will be included in the contractual clauses. Non-compliance with, or any deviation from, the conditions set out in this document shall constitute a failure in compliance.

115. The project will benefit the general public by contributing to the long-term improvement of water supply systems and community livability in Pansemal, Rajpur, Karahi Padliya and Kasrawad.

116. Therefore, as per ADB SPS, the project is classified as environmental category B and

does not require further environmental impact assessment. However, to conform to government guidelines, the project requires (i) permission of WRD, GoMP for water abstraction and construction of intakes in Narmada and Gomai Rivers (ii) Consent for Establishment (CFE) and Consent for Operation (CFO) for WTPs from MPPCB. These permissions/approvals shall be obtained. Corrective action plan as suggested for existing Kasrawad WTP is also to be implemented.

117. This IEE shall be updated during the detailed design stage by the DBO contractor to reflect any changes, amendments and will be reviewed and approved by PMU.

Appendix 10: Sample Outline Traffic Management Plan

A. Principles for TMP around the Water Pipes Construction Sites

1. One of the prime objectives of this TMP is to ensure the safety of all the road users along the work zone, and to address the following issues: (i) the safety of pedestrians, bicyclists, and motorists travelling through the construction zone; (ii) protection of work crews from hazards associated with moving traffic; (iii) mitigation of the adverse impact on road capacity and delays to the road users; (iv) maintenance of access to adjoining properties; and (v) addressing issues that may delay the project.

B. Operating Policies for TMP

2. The following principles will help promote safe and efficient movement for all road users (motorists, bicyclists, and pedestrians, including persons with disabilities) through and around work zones while reasonably protecting workers and equipment. (i) Make traffic safety and temporary traffic control an integral and high-priority element of project from planning through design, construction, and maintenance. (ii) Inhibit traffic movement as little as possible. (iii) Provide clear and positive guidance to drivers, bicyclists, and pedestrians as they approach and travel through the temporary traffic control zone. (iv) Inspect traffic control elements routinely, both day and night, and make modifications when necessary. (v) Pay increased attention to roadside safety in the vicinity of temporary traffic control zones. (vi) Train all persons that select, place, and maintain temporary traffic control devices. (vii) Keep the public well informed. (viii) Make appropriate accommodation for abutting property owners, residents, businesses, emergency services, railroads, commercial vehicles, and transit operations.

3. Figure A2 to Figure A12illustrates the operating policy for TMP for the construction of water pipes and the sewers along various types of roads.

C. Analyze the impact due to street closure

4. Apart from the capacity analysis, a final decision to close a particular street and divert the traffic should involve the following steps:

(i) approval from the ULB/Public Works Department (PWD) to use the local streets as detours;

144

(ii) consultation with businesses, community members, traffic police, PWD, etc, regarding the mitigation measures necessary at the detours where the road is diverted during the construction; (iii) determining of the maximum number of days allowed for road closure, and incorporation of such provisions into the contract documents; (iv) determining if additional traffic control or temporary improvements are needed along the detour route; (v) considering how access will be provided to the worksite; (vi) contacting emergency service, school officials, and transit authorities to determine if there are impacts to their operations; and (vii) developing a notification program to the public so that the closure is not a surprise. As part of this program, the public should be advised of alternate routes that commuters can take or will have to take as result of the traffic diversion.

5. If full road-closure of certain streets within the area is not feasible due to inadequate capacity of the detour street or public opposition, the full closure can be restricted to weekends with the construction commencing on Saturday night and ending on Monday morning prior to the morning peak period.

D. Public awareness and notifications

145

6. As per discussions in the previous sections, there will be travel delays during the constructions, as is the case with most construction projects, albeit on a reduced scale if utilities and traffic management are properly coordinated. There are additional grounds for travel delays in the area, as most of the streets lack sufficient capacity to accommodate additional traffic from diverted traffic as a result of street closures to accommodate the works.

6. The awareness campaign and the prior notification for the public will be a continuous activity which the project will carry out to compensate for the above delays and minimize public claims as result of these problems. These activities will take place sufficiently in advance of the time when the roadblocks or traffic diversions take place at the particular streets. The reason for this is to allow sufficient time for the public and residents to understand the changes to their travel plans. The project will notify the public about the roadblocks and traffic diversion through public notices, ward level meetings and city level meeting with the elected representatives.

7. The PIU will also conduct an awareness campaign to educate the public about the following issues:

(i) traffic control devices in place at the work zones (signs, traffic cones, barriers, etc.); (ii) defensive driving behaviour along the work zones; and (iii) reduced speeds enforced at the work zones and traffic diversions.

8. It may be necessary to conduct the awareness programs/campaigns on road safety during construction.

9. The campaign will cater to all types of target groups i.e. children, adults, and drivers. Therefore, these campaigns will be conducted in schools and community centres. In addition, the project will publish a brochure for public information. These brochures will be widely circulated around the area and will also be available at the PIU, and the contractor's site office. The text of the brochure should be concise to be effective, with a lot of graphics. It will serve the following purpose:

(i) explain why the brochure was prepared, along with a brief description of the project; (ii) advise the public to expect the unexpected; (iii) educate the public about the various traffic control devices and safety measures adopted at the work zones; (iv) educate the public about the safe road user behaviour to emulate at the work zones; (v) tell the public how to stay informed or where to inquire about road safety issues at the work zones (name, telephone, mobile number of the contact person; and (vi) indicate the office hours of relevant offices.

E. Install traffic control devices at the work zones and traffic diversion routes

146

10. The purpose of installing traffic control devices at the work zones is to delineate these areas to warn, inform, and direct the road users about a hazard ahead, and to protect them as well as the workers. As proper delineation is a key to achieve the above objective, it is important to install good traffic signs at the work zones. The following traffic control devices are used in work zones:

• Signs • Pavement Markings • Channelizing Devices • Arrow Panels • Warning Lights

11. Procedures for installing traffic control devices at any work zone vary, depending on road configuration, location of the work, construction activity, duration, traffic speed and volume, and pedestrian traffic. Work will take place along major roads, and the minor internal roads. As such, the traffic volume and road geometry vary. The main roads carry considerable traffic; internal roads in the new city areas are wide but in old city roads very narrow and carry considerable traffic. However, regardless of where the construction takes place, all the work zones should be cordoned off, and traffic shifted away at least with traffic cones, barricades, and temporary signs (temporary “STOP” and “GO”).

12. Figure A2 to Figure A6 illustrates a typical set-up for installing traffic control devices at the work zone of the area, depending on the location of work on the road way, and road geometrics: • Work on shoulder or parking lane • Shoulder or parking lane closed on divided road • Work in Travel lane • Lane closure on road with low volume • Street closure with detour

13. The work zone should take into consideration the space required for a buffer zone between the workers and the traffic (lateral and longitudinal) and the transition space required for delineation, as applicable. For the works, a 30 cm clearance between the traffic and the temporary STOP and GO signs should be provided. In addition, at least 60 cm is necessary to install the temporary traffic signs and cones.

14. Traffic police should regulate traffic away from the work zone and enforce the traffic diversion result from full street closure in certain areas during construction. Flagggers/ personnel should be equipped with reflective jackets at all times and have traffic control batons (preferably the LED type) for regulating the traffic during night time.

16. In addition to the delineation devices, all the construction workers should wear fluorescent safety vests and helmets in order to be visible to the motorists at all times. There should be provision for lighting beacons and illumination for night constructions.
