1.5.1 Traffic Conditions of Engineerin_
5 On the basis of site inspections by Task-Group, it is known that the traffic along the Northern River is rather convenient, on the east bank the main road is Yin-Ying (Oingyuan-Yingde) road (named S203), and every village or town has suburban road connecting the dock on the both banks of the river, 65% of the suburban roads are naved with concrete and others are paved with sand-stone, so it is sure that the traffic can meet the demand of field construction and it is not necessary to construct extra traffic ways and temporary docks or widen any road for the proiect. The traffic programming during the project is shown in figure 1-2-a.b,c.
1.5.2 Conditions of Proiect Field
Characteristics of the project: (I)Construction will be in low-water season, while the exposed bed of Northern River is wider than usual and usually it is 400-1000m wide, so it is rather good for the project. (2)The docks on both banks are enough. The materials needed during the project can be conveyed by truck to the nearest dock and then shipped to the construction field, thus much land will not be needed temporarily. Task-Group has determined through investigation that the docks needed by the project would include Chetouzhou dock, Baitu dock. Wushi dock, Kengkouzui dock, dock near Jiangkou town, dock near zhouxin town and so on. These docks will be used for transmitted construction materials, mainly stone, and sandstone secondly. The docks above-menitioned are showed in figure 1-2a,b,c. (3) Trhere is enough land on both sides of Northern River to be used as construction field for the storage of large stones temporarily, which are needed by revetment proiect. The banks, which need muchi revetment, include the one from Wushi Power plant to Wushiian. the one from Lunzhou (nearby Feilaixia) to Oixinggang. and that from Hululing to Xiaoshinan (nearby Oinvyuan Bridge). All temporary construction fields of the above banks are arranged on the banks of the river. (4) Since the river is wide enougi,l the construction field is scattered, and the constructions are well-arranged and strictly managed, it is assured that there is no influences on norimial shipmenit security and drainage during the construction.
1.5.3 Supply of niaterials, water and power
( I ) Local supply of construction materials: Constrtiction materials needed by the proiect, like large scale concrete, stone and sand, should be purchiased in the nearest market as a r ule, and the sources of the materials are Shaoe_Uan city, Yingde city and Oingyuan city, no more than 5-lSKm far from the construction fields. Accordingy to the consLIltation and investigation to local environment department, country-land department and constructors of waterwav bureau, all the stones needed for this project are from local stone mines, belonginpg to local town or village (including Gantang Town and Chishui Town of Shaoguan city. Baishiyao village anI( Guanyinvan village of Yingde city, Yuantan town of Oingyuan city), and runby private institute legally. There are no villages neal the mines. The locations of the stone mines, for the proqect, are shown in figurel-2a.b,c and table 1-5-1 in detail. Due to the reason that we only neeci a small quantity of sand for the proiect (about 2660 cube meters), the sand can be purchased from the local legal provider along the bank of the river.
(2) Water and power supplies to the proiect: Water for construction can be pumpeci from Northern River directly: and water after disinfecting and purifying can be used for household.: local power transforminilt substations can supply power for the project.

1.5.4 Sediment Disposal The plan for disposal of sedinent dredged or excavated during the proiect is as follows: (1) Because the main section of the middle reach of North River (Beiiiang) is much wider than desipn requirements (widest is approximately 1000 m)and because there are extensive shallow areas along both banks, sediment generated by dredging, both of the channel and during construction of the spurs and groynes will be disposed in the shallow areas between the spurs. The deposition in these areas will further enhance the river regulation created by the spurs and the channel dredging. No dredged materials can be disposed on the riverbanks along the waterway.
(2) Sediment generated by dredging/excavation for channel re-alignment will also be disposed on the areas between the newly constructed spurs and along the riverbanks. However, it is likely that little, if any, of such materials will actually be dumped in the water.
(3) Project revetments will consist of stonework of 1.5 m heighit and a total of 20.000 cu m. From site inspections, it has been determined that there will be little, if any. excess dirt created by the excavations. According to the construction methods used in other proiects, any excess dirt produced in the construction is usually used to infill wet areas or wasteland. As per project design, the revetment construction will maintain the bank at its original gradient. The Proiect mostly includes clearing off sulface shirbbery/debris, and leveling up rough slopes with earthwork Thus any soils excavated, can be re-used as fill and the volume of waste can be reduced greatly. The above disposal sites for dredged sediment and excavated soil spoil are mostly in the areas between spurs at distances of spurs-fields 100-200m far from the waterway (as shown in Figures 1-2a.b,c and Table 1-5-2.)

1.6 Engineering Analysis of environmental impact factors
1.6.1 Main types of engineering woric
A waterway regulation proiect usually adopts such engineering measures as damming (spurs and groynes), dredging, thus to reach the standard of inland waterway, aiming to widen the passageway, augment the sRecifications of waterway, guarantee constant water flow, hience regulate the water flow rate, and control the gradient ratio of the waterway to be less than the accepted value recorded by a self-powered vessel going up the stream. and improve the water flow to prevent traffic blockage from arising in the waterway.
1.6.2 Main construction technologies and measures 1.6.2.1 Dredging project
The dredging proiect mainly includes Dredging project on riverbed and Shoreline and channel re-alignment on land.
(I)Dredging proiect on riverbed
This part include dredging proiect on riverbed so as to obtain the depth and width standard in the project design. The main working procedure is: digging sediment under water-Clearing-Slit- loading spoil with barges( to be disposed in sites or be reused as materials for building) - dredging up waterwav. The practical working procedure is to dig earthwork under water by 3 dredger with 25-8.0m grappling bucket or 80-120m3 /h sucker, then to dispose spoil in the spur-fields (area between the two spurs) as mannual alluvium proiect and to dredge up the navigational channel finally. The most earthwork-comes from downriver to Feilaixia, which is about 1031.450m3 . covering 27.9% of whole earthwork.
(2)Shoreline and channel re-alignment project
There are 5 sites needing Shoreline and channel re-alignment proiect in the whole waterway. This project cuts the waterway with small curve semi-diameter to meet the demands of standards in the waterway renovation project design. The 6nain working procedure is: digging earthwork - chamfering on land and dredging both sides of the cutting liie-flowing the manmade-riverbed. The practical working procedure is: taking advantages of mechanisms such as grab, bulldozer and vehicles as tools and assisted by manpower, chamfering on land, while dredging up on the upward and backward to the cutting-line by dredger, and finally new waterway passes through. The range between Zhigaotan-Shitoushan (Mengzhou-Dam to Hutoushan section), with a 2.0km-long cutting-line and with the most earthwork 247,800m3. (covering 22.3% of whole earthwork.) costs the most, and its spoil is reused to refill Spur-fields. Other proiects have comparatively less earthwork.
1.6.2.2 Spurs/Groins project
There are 226 spurs/groins to be built in the project presentation. The total length is 46.71km and has an earth-rock works of 1324.000 cube meters. including 210 Spurs and 16 Groins . Construction sites are arranged in low water area usually. The main working procedure includes: dredging trench - mattress paving -sand-cushion and iackstone paving. Because the root of jackstone dam to be renovated is on dry bank, the proiect can be on land. The dredging trench has small earthwork usually, and is applicable to manpower. just loading the spoil, paving the sand-cushion and iackstone: while in the area of water it is applicable to wadding sinking, jack-pillow and iackstone. The last step is to repair the surface of slope structure construction by manpower.
1.6.2.3 Bank Rcvetinent project
On the basis of site investigations, most banks along the whole sea-route have been revetted, and
13 Environmental Action Plan for North-River(Shaoogua,i-OinAvt-an) Waterway Remdlation Proiect
the banks with no revetment mainly include Wushi Power Plant- Wushinan, Lunzhou-Oixinggang. Hululing.-Xiaoshinan (Feilaixia-Oiangyuan Bridge section). which is 15km long on both sides with earthwork of 30k cube meters. The main working procedure of bank revetment is: repairing shoreline- iackstone- stonework-hardening the surface of revetment - forestation. Practically it is earthwork-digging first, then slope repairing, followed by filter bed paving, and finally stonework on the surface of revetment. The bank revetnient will maintain the bank with original gradient, and slope project includes mainly clearing surface shrubbery and leveling up rough slopes with earthwork, so the waste earthwork can be refilled and spoil can be reduced greatly. The proiect is mainly done in low water or dry beach, seldom in water. Accordilg to the shape of the slope, the proiect can be finished by manpower or mechanism.
1.6.3 Process of environmental impact identification and selection 1.6.3.1 Analysis of influencing factors during waterway regulation process (I) During waterway regulation working process, bottom sedinent may be caused to suspend. influencing the water CIuality and the ecological environment in the water area of the construction site: dredging and structures may occupy certain water area, damage the habitat of benthos and will influence the habitat of aquatic life and fish, but the impacts on the species. community and quantity of organisms will be little. The ecological environment in the water area within the construction site will be restored to its normal state on the completion of waterway regulation. (2) Such construction transporter as the stone-dumper ships, transport ships etc. Will produce oil-contained wastewater, life-sewage, solid waste and other wastes, influencing the water environment in some degree. (3) As the waterway regulation work is launched in a comprehensive range, the traveling of those construction transporters will influence the normal traffic of vessels, and maybe constitute hidden dangers or even accidtnts.

3. Environmental Protection Measures and Budget According to the nature of the project and the analysis of environmental impacts, The proposed Proiect has been determined to have a limited number of significant or moderately significant adverse (deleterious) impacts during construction. These adverse impacts could be avoided or remedied by taking remedial or technical measures, thus bringing the project into full play to create economic, social and environmental benefits and minimize the adverse impacts.
3.1 Design Phase
a) Proper silt disposal and stockpiling sites oii shore shall be well selected for dredging project. b) Structures re-building shall be well arranged to avoid bank flushing.
3.2 Construction Phase
3.2.1 Mitigation Measures and Sugestion on Water quality
During the dredging construction period, the following mitigation measures should be taken to protect the water environment. (1 ) The environmental protection matter in surrounding water area should be fully emphasized duriing the dredging construction period. The dredging construction within the water protection area in Oingycvan should not be operated witilout permission of locad EPB and WB. Extensive sections of exposed river bank in various constriLction areas will be protected from erosion by use of geotextiles to protect the water froni pollution: and he task of water auality monitoring should be well enforced in the stage of constructioni. (2) Employing advanced construction equipments according whith the nation relevant techniQue request, optimizing construction techniques During construction in river sections between Qingyuan Feilaixia gorge and Qingyuan Beiiiang Bridge and between Yingde Baishiyao and Daluodu, owning to the sand deposit property of riverbed, hydraulic dredging equipments with low pollution (such as Suction dredger)shoUild be employed to reduce mud leakage and re-suspension during dredging. (3 ) The contractors should consult with and get authorization from the proiect office before starting the work, arranging the number, location and dredging schedule of watercrafts to reduce the stirring strength and influence extent of the dredging area and its bottom deposit, especially to reduce the dredging strength towards river sections between Lunzhou to Qixinggang and the downstream reach of Wushi power plant. When dredging along the water intake zone of water supply, the construction must notify water plant carefully monitor water quality . and temporarily cut water supply when necessary. Because the period of highest demands on potable water usually in daytimes, construction should be operated at night. to avoid affecting water supply as'far as possible. (4 ) When constructioning watercrafts have site-fixed operation, are at anchor in the water area. ship anchoring and or are having construction encamping, the construction watercrafts should select rational environmental protection measures based on the condition of the construction sites property, so as to avoid accidents of water area pollution by ship contaminants. Among them, the
20 FnvironmentalAction Planfor North-RiverdShaoeua,Oinevuan) Waterway Remelation Proiect
oil-containing sewage generated by construction ships watercrafts must be collected and processed uniformly by oil-water separator, and theii discharged when reaching the disposal standard. The sewage generated by the work staff at the construction watercrafts should be reduced to the lowest degree. And the disposal of trash from the construction crafts should strictly abide by the Disposal .Standard for Watercrafts Poll.
3.2.2 Mitigation Measures and Suggestion in Dredging Sediments
Disposal
In the process of removing of dredging sediments, the following measures should be taken: (I) According to the constitution property of riverbed deposit in Beiiiang, the contents of organic material and heavy metal in dredging sediments are little, so the harm to environment caused by them is negligible Considering the water source protection area in Oingyuan. however, it is suggested that the dredging sediments should not be placed in areas between groins. But in low-lying areas 500 meters from the river shore (the land protection range of water source protection area), and that protection measure should be taken to preserve water and soil. Therefore, according to the newly Possibility report of Beiiiantt. the dredging sediments (mainly contain sand and scree) all will be used in the revetment or the refilling of areas between groins for the project. The deposition in these areas will further enhance the river regulation created by the spurs and the channel dredging. (2) When digged silt and earth stone pile are temporarily placed on riverside. the locations should be selected based on the standard that they are not easy to be eroded, such as low-lyiig beach, and the simrple cofferdam and barrel-drain should be built beforehand to prevent direct influx into river and small quantity of slop of the sediments. (3) To guarantee construction security durinig dumpage of dredging sediments and rational operation of peripliery river-route and other water area functional sections, the obvious signs should be set ontside the dumpage sites , to facilitate conistruction ships enter and practise dumpage task, and avoid uninecessary pollution accidents. Meanwhile it should be performed with permission of administration department. (4) The dredging crafts must strictly follow the proposed chaninel alignment and dispose of dredged selimenits the sediments in the dumpage sites. It is forbidden to discharge the sediment beyond the appointed dumpage sites. According to the experience of dumpage practice, it is important to follow the above rule in order to reduce the impact on the water environment around the dumpage sites to the minimum degree. Some personnel can be arranged to supervise the dumpage actions if necessary. (6) No leakage is allowed when the dredginig crafts transport the sediments to the dumpage sites. At the same time. the construction group should have close contact with the local weather report department, so that precautions can be taken in advance in case of bad weather. For example, they can stop dredging or dumpage when the know it is going to rain. (7) It is necessary to have a good performance at the sediments monitoring . during constructioni.

3.2.3 Mitigation Measures and Sugiestion on Air Environment
In order to protect the air environment in the residential area along the transportation route, the following mitigation measures should be tukeni during the construction period. ( I ) The dropped trash in construction docks should be cleared regularil, supplemented with necessary measure of spreading water to repress dust, no less than two or three times each day, to keep ground without flying dust. To spray water on roads within 50m near Chetou Village, Baitu Town, Wushi, Kengkouzui, Zhouxin Town, and .liangkou Town. (2) When vehicle carrying earth stone pile, sand gravel stuff, cement and other building materials enters the site, it is necessary to cover stuff that generates dust easily withi cloth, limit velocity of passing vehicles, decrease falling gap of loaded materials, and avoid leakage caused by gale weather or road wallow. (3) According to the local dominating wind orientation and distribution of sensitive points in surrounding environment, piling field and concrete mixing field should be reasonably arranged during construction, such as 200 in or more away from and, if possible. lee-side of the residential areas. Meanwhile the stuff of easily flying dust should be piled in warehouse and covered witi cloth. (4 ) The construction management department should pal attention to weather forecast in construction area, and do well in the flying dust prevention works. Measures of spreading water, covering and suppressing stuff in the bad weather conditions of great wind and dryness should be taken. (5) Construction sections should cooperate with local environment protection inspection staff, to strengpthen inspection to key district, such as near Chetou Village, Baitu Town, Wushi, Kengkouzui, Zhouxin Town. and Jiangkou Town, and suivey the TSP concentration in atmosphere circumstance so as to supply data for effective control of TSP pollution. (6) It is necessary to carry out air monitoring during construction.
3.2.4 Mitiization Measures and Su!j!estion on Construction Noise
( I ) To reasonably arrange the operation time (construction will be forbided in nighttime) of docks and schedule of ship construction and strengthen supervision and management of construction docks and transport routes, to avoid impact on sensitive points in surrounding circumstance. (2) To select withi priority the construction equipments according with the nation relevant technique request and low noise and concentrate on the regular maintenance and repair of construction equipments for keeping their good running status. (3) To regulate and administer uniformly the construction vehicles and control the vehicle flow density.

3.2.5 Mitigation Measures and Suiggestion on Land Ecological
Environment
The preferred order of mitigation measure to reduce the ecological impact is: avoidance, reduction, restoration or rebuilding, and compensation. In the factual implementation, the reconnaissance and selection of quarry is based on the synthesized considerations of location factors, including repair engineering section, demand capacity, transport condition, stone stuff and reserve. Therefore, the emphasis of mitigation measure is reductioll of ecological destroy, and to restore the ecological system similar to or more eminent than the existing status after stone mining. ( I ) To Reduce Ecological Influence via Optimizing Choice of Quarrv Because the quarry is pre-selected based on the engineering demand capacity, the reserve of stone in every field is abundant. It is proposed to choose and mine the stuff fields with little vegetatioin covering, small biological mass quantity, and bad ecological quali under the circumstance of good road and transport conditions, but retain the stuff fields with good natural vegetation structure and eminent ecological quality. (2) Compensation for-Environmental Impact and Rebuilding of Ecological Circumstance If some organic species and ecological circumstance are affected by the engineering, the engineering group will compensate by the means of restoration of similar ecological circumstance with same species. Because the organisms destroyed in the engineering are local common species, the restoration of ecological circumstance can be fulfilled by means of planting the local species. In deed, the newly constructed ecological system shouldn't be thoroughly the same as the former one: the restoration should be fulfilled based on the actual conditions and optimizing combination choice of species. (3) Take measures of soil and water conservation in quarry site. According to the local condition, the construction contractors will plant bermude. lawngrass, bamboo and axonopus compressus on ehe riverbank and Ouarry sites
3.2.6 Mitigation Measures and Suagestioii on Aquatic Organisms and
Fishery Resources
(I ) To dredge in separate section manner and decrease the dredging intensity so as to benefit the adaptation and restoration of fishery resources and organisms. (2) The construction time shouldn't conflict the reproducing and growth season of fish resources that is usually from May to July for dominating fish species in Beiiiang River. (3) The construction units should consult fisherv administration department, to guarantee the least loss of fry. After construction, the construction units should pay some economic compensation to the administration department through negotiation, providing some capital to buy fry and cooperating with fishery administration department in fry breeding to restore fishery resources.

It is forbidden to discharge the sediment beyond the appointed dumpage sites. According to the experience of dumpage practice, it is important to follow the above rule in order to reduce the impact on the water environment around the dumpage sites to the minimum degree. Some personnel can be arranged to supervise the dumpage actions if necessary. (e)No leakage is allowed when the dredging crafts transport the sediments to the dumpage sites. At the same time, the construction group should have close contact with the local weather report department, so that precautions can be taken in advance in case of bad weather. For example, they can stop dredging or dumpage when the know it is going to rain. (f)It is necessary to carry out the sediments monitoring during construction.

In that way. the mitigation measures can be effectively implemented, and the progress, the effect, and the problein in implementation can be reported to the GDWBin time. The GDWB should also regularly entiust the local E-nvironmental Monitoring station or GDEMS to have on-spot monitoring during construction and to transfer the reports to GDWB, EPB and the World Bank, so as to ensure the successfuil implementation of the mitigation measures. 5.4 Training and Budget Training of staff in charge of supervision and monitoring, responsible persons in each section, and construction workers are indispensable for the implementation. All the staff including construction workers shall receive at least one tine of environmenital protection training, while the major environmental protection staff siall receive position training. 5.4.1 Contents of training 5.4.1.1 Environment protuccion kuinwledge and ability training During the construction phasc, hlie Employer and the constructor shall invite environment protection experts to carry out an overall environment protection concept training for all construction workers and supervisors, clarifying the major environmental problems and necessary measures during construction phase. During the operation phase, Beijiang Project tcam should regularly organize environment protection knowledge training ;or all staff. So that they can clarify the possible problems that could exist within their assigned areas, stress the negative consequence that may result from failing to take necessary enviroiinment protection measures and implant the environment protection idea to the mind of every one ol' ile staff. 5.4.1.2 Environment prolectioni ability training The key construction and operation staff such as installation or maintenance personals, drivers, office members in Project and environment protection supervisors from the Project and persons in charge of the docks shall receive environment protection ability training. The process of training includes: 43 FnvEironmental ActaiL Plan for INorth-River(Shaogcan--Qingyua,) Matenvrv Regulation Prqipec a) Expert lecture b) Site visit of similar environment protection installationsLc) Irregular national or international long-term or short-term training- d) Twelve men will be sent abroad in two separate groups to receive training. 5.4.2 Training people in environmental management department 5.4.2.1 The arrangement of training time One year before construction, when Project Office is founded, Department of Environmental management should be organized. Departmenit of Environmental Management should communicate with local Environmental P'rotection Bureau, and arrange training for people of department self. Training time should be 1-3 months. Three stages include: (1) Knowledge of environmental protection training: experts of environmental protection and administrators from Environmental Protection Bureaus are invited to give lectures. Or some visual materials are good, like VCD or tapes. Let them understand importance of environmental- protection in social economical development and sustainable development. It needs about 4 weeks. (2) Practice in site: Find a typical waterway regulatory engineering completed, and visit the engineering. Learn experiences of environmental management from the engineering. Let them discuss problems appeared in the engineering and the methods solved problems. The results could be considered as management principles under consultation of local EPB. This training needs about 4 weeks. (3) Training abroad: Choose a few administrators and send them to study abroad. There are some similar waterway regulatory engineeringS abroad where advanced environmental management experience have gotten, especially engineering loaned by World Banik. By analyzing conditions of the waterway to be constructed, make a program of environmental management. This training needs about 5-6 weeks. 5.4.2.2 Training fees (1) Domestic training A total of 100,000 Yuan is needed (20 persons/month and the training fee for a person being 5,000 Yuan). (2) Abroad training A total of US$120. 000 is needed (12 persons/month and the training fee for a person being US$ I 0,000). 5.4.3 On-the-job-training of environmental monitoring and management personnel The on-the-job-training of environmental monitoring and management personnel aims to enhance the environmental monitoring and management at the construction phase and the operation phase and to ensuLe the quality of environmental monitoring and the efficient environmental managemilenit, so that tile quality of the whole project will be raised. During the on-the-job-training, the administrative staff of environmnental monitoring may know more about the issues and shortages occurring in the environmental monitoring and management, which should be reported to the environmenital protection department of the project in time so as to be helpful for taking measures to adjust and deal with them. The on-the-job-training at the construction stage will last one month, being at tihe first season of the 2nd year and the 4th season of the 3rd year at the 44 Fnvirotmental Action Plan for North-River4aognanQing-Qi7uan) Waterway Regulation Priect construction stage respectively. Related environmental experts or environmental managers with similar experience will be invited to explaii the possible environmental issues and their countermeasures on site. The estimated training fee is 20,000 Yuan. 5.4.4 Training for all responsible persons of each sub-projects and constructors Before the construction work starts, all responsible persons and constructors of the successful bidders shall receive systematic training of environmental protection knowledge, so as to avoid environmental damages resulting from miss and fault during the construction phase. The objective of training for the responsible persons of contractors is to clarify their environmental protection responsibility, and the objective of training for constructors is to emphasize the importance of right operation manners in the construction and the operation phases, especially mobile drivers must receive position training of environmental protection. The principals of the project environmental protection department will be in charge of these trainings, and the main tasks are to. clarify the possible environmental loss happening during the construction, identify the adaptable environmental protection measures, and the possible measures for tackling environmental problems. Through training, the principals of works will understanid their duties for environmental protection, and the consequence for environmental damages. lThe constrniction workers will know directly the protection extent and means for the environmental sensitive locations. For the project, the training for the project principals and constructors will last I week, and the estimated total cost will be 20,000 Yuan. 5.5 Time Schedule for Enforcement of EAP Based on the time schedule of the project, invitation for bid of the constrtiction works will be done from the 4'i' season of 2003 to the 4th season of 2004. The construction will start in the 4'' season of 2004, and will be finished by the end of 2007. The EAP work out the time schedule for enforcemenlt of enviroiiniental protection measures after the above time schedule of the project construction.
