On the basis of above categorization, the proposed improvement of road link with less than 30 Km length involving additional right of way less than 20m involving land acquisition is not under the purview of EIA Notification. The project need not obtain environmental clearance from State Environmental Appraisal Committee, Karnataka. The length and RoW details of the proposed road link are as follows

I - i 67B ~ Cross - Chinatmani Bypass (Corridor 65F i o82 29.0 ; ~~c~ I 1.3 Environmental Mitigation and Enhancement measures

To achieve the environmental management standards, EMP has been prepared for the road project as

per the requirements of World Bank OP 4.01. Mitigation measures have been devised in such a way

that the contractor would be able to execute accurately. All studies relating to the project has finally

come out with an implement able Environmental Management Plan. This plan has been recommended for feasible and cost-effective measures to avoid, prevent or reduce significant negative impacts on environment to acceptable levels. Apart from mitigation of the potential adverse impacts on the

environmental components, the EMP identified opportunities that exist for the enhancements along the corridor; some road user facilities such as bus lay bys and waiting sheds (part of civil work) and parking areas. In order to implement the environmental management plan contractor needs to prepare specific plans for, Debris Disposal Plan (Includes collection, transportation, haul roads and disposal); Construction phase water management plan; Management plan for construction camp, Labour camps; Management plan for plant sites (WWM plant, Hot mix, Crushers etc.,); Accidents, Safety and Traffic management plan. EMP includes detailed specifications, bill of quantities (BOQ), execution drawings and contracting procedures for execution of the environmental mitigation and enhancement measures suggested. Since the project is to be implemented under ICB or NCB contracting, highest standards of project plarming, project management and project implementation are to be maintained. Therefore the contractor needs to resort to international good practices not only in the implementation of EMP but also in l1e construction activities. The success of the project management is directly linked to the effective implementation of the EMP measures. All mitigation measures, avoidance measures and environmental enhancement measures recommended are to be implemented in a timely and phased marmer. Proper understanding of all environmental management measures especially the. EMAP is a

pre-requisite for all those working from the contractor's side.

The institutional arrangements required at the PWD, contractors. and the CSC (Construction Supervision Consultant) have been defined properly for the smooth implementation of the project

components. A positive attitude from the project management and the individual professional or staffs are always a prerequisite for success of the EMP implementation.

The EMP specifies the environmental supervision, monitoring. The monitoring programme specifies

parameters, reference standards, monitoring method, frequency, duration, location, reporting

responsibilities, and other inputs (e.g., training). The EMAP on the other hand provides an action plan

showing the mitigation measures, time of implementation, who will implement, at what location and

who will supervise etc., This is provided for pre-construction, construction and post construction

stages. The EMP listed all mandatory government clearance condition, and the statutes for procuring

clearances.

diesel generators; stone crushing unit operations in the stone quarries and handling and storage of aggregates and sand at locations of batch mixing plants.

It can be observed from the ambient air quality of the project area except increase in suspended particulate matter all other air quality parameters such as RPM, NOx, SOx, Pb, CO and HC are within

the limits of ambient air quality standard.

2.1.2 Operation Stage

The introduction of new pavement will smoothen and widen the road, so the generation of fugitive

dust is reduced during the operation stage and suitable pitching and embankment turfmg will control

the erosion dust emission.

1 he levels of S02, HC and NOx are likely to come down to greater extent by the operations of new

roads with extensive savings in conswnption of fuel. There will be reduction of toxic gases being

released. There may be localized impact from pollution with increase in nwnber of vehicles running on the road, adulterated fuel supply and poor maintenance of vehicles.

The measures for the avoidance and mitigation measures for controlling the air pollution are in table

3.1 Environmental mitigation plan. The increase in the width of pavement and landscaping decreases

the dust emissions by traffic during operational phase.

2.2 Noise Environment

The baseline noise levels monitored in the project area indicate baseline noise level, which exceeds the

permissible limits for silence areas such as schools, courts and hospitals. For other land uses the noise

levels are well within the specified limits. But noise levels would increase significantly during construction phase due to movement of construction machinery and vehicles during construction &

operation respectively. Thus, noise is a major area of concern, especially since a nwnber of sensitive

r~ceptors have been located within Impact zone and are close to RoW.

The impacts on noise due to the project will be of significance in both the construction as well as the

operation stages.

2.2.1 Impact of Noise during Pre-Construction Stage and Construction Stage

Noise levels during the pre construction stage are mostly expected to be indicative of prevalent

baseline levels apart from localised noise levels at locations where pre construction stage activities

such as establishment of workers camps, stockyards are taking place. There will be increased noise

levels due diversion of traffic on unpaved roads only for a short duration during the pre construction

stage. Moreover, as these activities are not likely to be placed near settlement locations the increased

noise impact is bound to be negligible.

Various activities of road construction will increase noise levels in impacts zone of the project

corridor. The construction activities includes the excavation for foundations and grading of the site and

the construction of structures and facilities, movement of heavy vehicles, loading, transportation and

unloading of construction materials and also there will be indirect influence which will be cwnulative

to ambient noise level due to activities such as blasting at stone quarry sites, crushing plants, asphalt

production plants, produce significant noise during construction stage.

Enhancement in noise levels depends on many key factors such as traffic intensity, type and condition

of the vehicles plying on the road, acceleration/deceleration/gear changes by the vehicles depending

on the level ofcongestion and smoothness of road surface (IRC: 104-1988).

Contractor needs to keep a copy of the EA and EMP in the site office. Other than the construction \vater issue, no major pollution points have been identified through out the length. No construction waste shall be disposed off in to the water bodies/valley/nala. The construction vehicles are prohibited from entering the water bodies for any purpose (including cleaning) other than the legitimate requirements to avoid major pollution points due to Petroleum oil and lubricants.

It is very fundamental to conserve the water by way of constructing recharge pits wherever feasible

along the project road. These recharge pits harvest rainwater from road surface to improve the ground w'ater table. Refer Appendix -2 for typical drawing.

The construction water requirement could be an issue during construction at certain stretches of the project road. As a part of the planning, contractor has to prepare a contractor's construction water management plan as per the guidelines provided in Appendix -15,

2.4 Land Environment

:Most of the available stone material along the project area is granites gneiss and granitic schist. The metals required for the road construction is available very close to road enroute. Use of explosives is .,bsolutely necessary to break open the aggregates in the stone quarry. In order to use these materials, c:ontractor will have to establish a number of crushers along the project route from which impact will be very large and permanent in nature.

There will be exploitation of natural resources and it also reduces natural beauty of the landscape and dters contours of the geographical region. There will be formation of deep and large depression from the quarry operations. This will be fatal for both the animals and humans in case fall in to depressions from surrounding habitat. Some times there is possibility of flying fragments of stones from l.mcontrolled blasting using explosives surrounding to quarry area prevails.

Suspended particulate matter generatedn leads to degeneration of plant species and retards the growth of plant species as it reduces the transpiration process and also there will be considerable impact over -:he occupational workers in the quarries. During monsoon there will be collection of water in deep ditches this serves as breeding sites for mosquitoes.

Borrow material includes gravel, murrum and sand. Generally gravel is collected from the wasteland, which is notified from Government or with the consent of farmers in case of farmland. Sand will be collected from river valleys this alters the course of flow and velocity of flow of water in rivers. Transport of the borrow materials to the construction sites is of significance, as almost all such areas • are accessible through dirt tracks. Spillage and compaction of soil along these tracks will be a

significant irr.pact. Special transport facilities with special measures are required to transport

bituminous material from the refmeries :0 work sites, as they are highly inflammable and to control accidental spills. Proper protection measures need to be worked out for the minimizing of such

impacts during the haulage of borrows materials. A major source of dust during the construction stage

is from stone crushing operations from the crusher and the vibrating screen. The dust, in addition causes an eyesore, reduces visibility thereby increasing safety concerns. Rehabilitation of borrows

areas from which earth has been excavated, is a potential problem, which needs to be addressed and need to comply with management plan Appendix - 17. In addition to visual Hght, safety issues shall

2.4.1.1 Land use Impact at Construction phase

During construction phase contractor activity will go beyond Building line. Even in secondary

construction sites like borrow areas, quarry sites and water resource points the contractor's activity

will cross the limit depending upon the demand for material availability. These will create demand and

disturbances to the near by agricultural area, built up area etc. In case of any such issues it should be

cleared within shortest period. Potential community impact related to economy growth are closely

related to land acquisition, aesthetic and landscape considerations; noise, air quality etc., Other than

the mitigation in these area no additional mitigation actions are warranted.

2.4.1.2 Land use impact during operation phase

Immediately after the construction phase it is necessary to ensure that no further deterioration or

major land use change such as ribbon development will take place.

4. Monitoring Programme

The monitoring programme consists of perfonnance indicators, reporting formats and necessary

budgetary provision. Out of this, the budgetary provisions are confidential and are not supposed to be

part of the disclosure statement. The budgetary statements are provided in section 8.0 for the purpose

of evaluation of the EMP.

The contractors monitoring plan should be in accordance with the baseline environmental monitoring,

locations provided in the environmental impact assessment report.

The monitoring plan has the following objective

• To ensure effective implementation ofEMP

• To comply with all applicable environmental, safety, labour and local legislation

• To ensure that public opinions and obligations are taken in to account and respected to the required satisfaction level

• To modify the mitigation measures or implementing additional measures, if required 4.1 Performance indicators

Environmental components identified of a particular significance in affecting the environment at

critical locations have been suggested as perfonnance indicators (PIs).

For example near the construction site, a thick layer of dust over the near by vegetation/leaf is an

indication that the dust control measures are not effective. The performance indicators shall be

evaluated under three heads as;

• Environmental condition indicators to determine efficiency of environmental management measures in control of air, noise, water and soil pollution.

• Environmental management indicators to determine compliance with the suggested environmental management measures. -

• Operational performance indicators and monitoring plans prepared for the road sections are presented in Table 5.1. Details of the performance indicative parameters

for each of the component have to be identified and reported during all stages of the

implementation.

The Environmental officer of CSC can make required changes in the formats specified in Appendix 12 of EMP to ensure effective reporting of environmental issues. Some of the formats should be included in the request for inspection such as Debris disposal area approval request. For making any

required changes in the frequency of reporting and change in the contents of the report for effective and simple for implementation and monitoring, CSC should discuss the reporting formats with the Contractor and KSHIP. This will not only ensure that the environmental provisions are addressed but also link the satisfactory compliance to environmental procedures prior to approval of the Interim Payment Certificate (IPC) by the Engineer. In the regular monthly meeting the environmental aspects should also be discussed and the staff responsible for the implementation of the environmental management from the contractor, KSHIPIPWD and CSC should also be present.
