Part I: Description and Aim Of The Project (Project’s subject, activity’s description, its life, service purposes, market or service areas and importance and necessities in scales of country, region and/or city in terms of economy and social in this area) Existing Condition Concerning The Project Muratli Weir and Hydroelectric Power Plant (HEPP) is planned to be done on Kelkit

Brook within the borders of Sarpkaya Village of Camoluk District of Giresun Province and Yaylacayı Village of Golova District of Sivas Province in the Eastern Black Sea Region.

Exercised EIA studies in 2007 within the context of Muratı Weir , HPP and Borrow

Pits Project, Document of “EIA IS NOT REQUIRED.” has been taken in 31.12.2007 date and 73129 numbered writing appendix of T.R Ministry Of Environment and Forestry General Directorate Of Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and Planning.(see in Appendix-1)

For the purpose of project’s being actualized, aforesaid EIA Report is prepared for

24th Article of (b) barrage of EIA Regulations so as to be able to be got credit. Project Special Format that has been given by General Directorate of EIA and Planning is presented in Appendix-2.

Project planned for the purpose of producing energy will be built on Kelkit Brook on

961 m river bed level. Kelkit Brook’s water converted with Muratli Weir will be transferred to head pond with conveyance tunnels and conveyance channels and will be directed to Muratli HEPP by means of penstock line.Thus , 103.010 GWs energy will be produced with 37,70 MW established power on Muratli HEPP in a year.

Produced electric energy in generetors of Muratli HEPP will be entered to 154 kV Muratli HEPP switch after raised to 33 kV in unit transformers raised to 154 kV tension level with 46 MVA main transformer outside of plant building. It will be connected in the form of input-output with 1272 MCM conductive Energy Transfer Line from 154 kV switch area to 10 km away from Suşehri-Erzincan Energy Transfer Line and will be transferred to interconnected system. EIA Positive Decision will be obtained from the Turkish Ministry of Environment and Forestry for the EIA Report of transmission lines. As soon as this decision is obtained, the EIA Report will be submitted to the World Bank.

Project is composed of derivation channel, fountain and downstream cofferdams,

weir, gravel passage, water intake structure, stilling pool, settling ditch,conveyance tunnels, conveyance channels, head pond, penstockand power plant building. This Project does not enclose any dam type construction. Therefore, bank policy on Safety of Dam is not applicable in this project. Borrow pits aren’t in the project that is anticipated to be done. Project’s life is anticipated as 49 years.

Within the context of the project,one building site facility,one concrete plant and one

cover moulding area will be run. In Building Site Facility, social service building for personnel who will work within the context of the project will satisfy their needs and stay, administrative building and prepared concrete facility will be built.

Service purpose, market or service areas and importance and necessities in scales of country ,region and/or city in terms of economy and social in this area Energy and consumption of electric energy in this frame is an important sign of

economic development and social welfare. Usage ease, being able to be converted to other energy types any time and energy consumption per head in a country because of the currency in daily life,it is accepted as a sign of development and living standart of that country’s national income level.

Like the other countries in the world , in our country our energy needs also increase

continually depends on development.Consequently, our energy need’s fulfilment in non-stop,qualified,dependable and influencing the environment economically in the lest negative way is necessary.

For the purpose of providing sustainable development, assessment of our renewable

energy that is clean and environment friendly energy by developing in maximum level is an important case. Hydroelectric energy constitutes the greatest importance of energy source among renewable energy sources.

In addition to plants of fosil , nuclear fuelled thermic and natural gas in electric energy production , there are two important features of hydroelectric plants like renewable and plant work. Hydroelectric energy that provides energy demand immediately that is increasing and decreasing in certain hours a day and has the feature of exiting from the period immediately when demands are decreasing has an important place among the other energy production facilities.

566 HEPP projects are planned for the purpose of making use of our country’s

rivers’ hydroelectric potential.These plants’ total installed power as 35,540 MW and hydroelectric energy potential as 126.109 GWh/year are calculated.With this value,it is seen that we have the hydroelectric potential in 15% approximate degree of Europe’s economic potential. By the beginning of the year 2004, total installed power of 130 HEPP projects that are put into operation by being developed is 12.251 MW and the average capacity of energy production is 44.388 GWh/year. This capacity constitutes only 35% of our total hydroelectric potential. Total installed power of 31 HEPP projects whose constructions already continue is 3.338 MW and its producing energy amount is 10,845 GWh/year. In this case, our hydroelectric potential that is needed to be put into operation by being developed is 65% except being already operated.

In our country , important developments are advanced in construction of HEPPs with

the model of Build-Operate-Transfer(BOT) performed by The Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources , “Autoproducer Producers” method within the model and models of “100% Foreign Financed Turnkey” that are administered by SHW with the application of HPP’s Transfer of Operational Rights that are in operation.

Depending on the development of our country, the share in total energy of

hydroelectric energy potential and consumption is also decreasing. But, our hydroelectric energy potential makes development necessary with being clean energy, causing source loss in case of not being made use of it because of naturally disembogueing of our rivers to sea and addition to these the most important one for fulfiling our country’s peak needs ,having the advantages like cheaper, more pratical and transported to requiring regions by being given to the system immediately according to alternatives that some important parts are provided by importing.

In produced scenarios, native and renewable hydroelectric power plants in the nature

of the source are predicted to be addressed primarily. If it is possible to be completed the HEPP constructions in the prescribed time of planning, Turkey’s hydraulic installed power will rise to 24.935 MW in 2010 and 29.984 MW in 2020. But , although hydraulic installed power composes 38% of total installed power in 2010 with other renewable energy sources, this rate’s decreasing to 28% is expected in 2020 because of being hydraulic sources in limited way and increasing country’s need in parallel with development. Looking to the range of installed power according to fuel types, it is anticipated that the biggest share in our installed power in 2020 will belong to 32% and plants run on natural gas while it is estimated that the biggest share in 2010 will belong to 38% and hydraulic and renewable energy sources.

Muratli Weir and being operated the HEPP Facility will create energy opportunities

in the area where development potential is always high with geographical position and access roads and closeness to big harbors and will bring opportunities to economy and employment in both construction and operation terms, in addition to this they contributes to Turkish economy and energy market.Besides, they will contribute to the amount of “green energy” that Turkey produces, according to Kyoto Conference decicions at least 22% of energy currently consumed as a green energy required to power the European countries will contribute to the ability to export.

In addition,these and similar plants can be built with largely engaged in domestic

capital,the state will also provide more efficient use of resources. In exchange , they will reduce the need for resources paid in foreign currency a little bit and will contribute to evaluate our renewable energy sources that cannot be evaluated.

The route of access road to be constructed or stabilized within the Project is indicated by the blue line on the general layout plan given in Appendix- 3. During the construction of new roads or rehabilitation of existing roads, excavation and backfilling activities will be performed. The following mitigation measures will be taken for the environmental impacts that are likely to arise from these activities.

• Dust will be suppressed by water spraying • Excavated material or any other solid wastes will not be disposed to the river bed. • Personal protection equipments such as earflaps, helmets and dust musk will be

provided to the workers.

This road will also be used by the local people for the transportation between the villages, which will create a positive social impact at the region.

III.6. How To Do Expropriation and/or Resettlement, Muratli Weir’s water structures will take place in river bed and there is no private

property except treasury land in regulator water collection areas. Muratli HEPP facility is also located on treasury land. Transfer lines are passing through partly from the treasury land and partly from the private property area. After recieving positive EIA Decision, necessary expropriation work will be done in the areas of private property.

Project area remains within the boundaries of Giresun and Sivas Provinces.

Therefore, expropriation procedures will be carried out in Giresun and Sivas Governorships for expropriated areas on the borders of Giresun and Sivas. Expropriation plan is being prepared within the context of the project.

Total expropriated areas according to this, in accordance with 15/c (Different: 5496

SK. 5th art.) article of 4628 numbered of Electricity Market Law ;expropriation procedures will be conducted by EMRA , expropriation decision in this regard which will be given will replace common weal decision and the immovable properties expropriated will be registered on behalf of the treasury in land register.

Expropriation will be performed with numbered 2942 of Expropriation Law and

according to numbered 4650 of Expropriation Law made several changes in this Law and entered into force being published in the Offical Gazette dated May 5,2001.

III.7. Other Considerations There are no other issues to be examined in this section.

General Geology

Studies were made in order to determine the basic geological features of Above Kelkit Brook region and its southern in 1985 by GDMRE and geological maps related to geology of the region was prepared. Geological studies have been used in the Project area and its immediate surroundings.

Observation area is in the southern of Above Kelkit region where the pondits in the north and the torids in the south are closing the most and North Anatolian Ophiolitic Belt is between them.

In this region, four basic tektono-stratigraphic units reflecting different environmental conditions and tectonics associated with each other and the age of pre-Eocene were distinguished. These were Kelkit Goreli Autochthonous, Cimen Mountain Nappe, Erzincan Nappe and Munzur Limestone from north to south

Before Kelkit Goreli Autochthonous and Cimen Mountain Nappe were separated from each other, their segments showing local differences and older than Liyas were common. Placed along with the greenschist Gumushane granite offering wide lands in the northeast and outside of the observation area forms the basis of Kelkit Goreli Autochthonous.Sillimanite, mica schist, gneiss and metamorphics consisting of metabasis belong to the basic before Liyas. Carboniferous-Permian old shallow marine and terrestrial environment representing volcano-sedimentary sequence is the foundation of Cimen Mountain Nappe before Liyas. This unit widely covered with granitic pebbles in crumbs comes with angular uncorformity on schist, metavolcanitic and granitic metamorphics.

Kelkit Goreli Autochthonous and Cimen Mountain Nappe usually represents continental shelf and continental slope in the north. Formations in Eocene and younger age come with angular unconformity on tectono-stratigraphic units introduced above and embarkments between units.

Map showing general structure of the project site is shown below. Maps showing jeological structures of units’ places are given in Appendix-5.

Sratigraphic Geology

Paleozoic

Erzincan Nappe

Materials are often derived from ophiolites and they have been discussed in complicated and complex as a whole and is named as Erzincan Nappe. The complex of aphiolitic defined between Tokat and Sivas and in the investigation area towards Erzincan has the same features of internal structure ,block types and age with the complex of aphiolitic defined just in the north of Munzur Mountains So, these formations are assumed to be the products of the same event and the same basin.

Erzincan Nappe is located on Munzur Limestone in the South and under the Cimen Mountain Nappe in the north.This unit consists of Karayaprak Complex built with cushion volcanic tuff,agglomerate,limestone and olistostromal materials and Refahiye Complex built with serpentinite, periodit,gabro and metamorphics. These two sub-units are related to each other with tectonic.However, the creation of the rock types of the complex can be mapped seperately because they are frequently changing and are non-uniform structures while in large surfaces.In the area of the project, there are rocks belonging to Refahiye Complex of Erzincan Nappe.

Refahiye Complex (Pr)

In general related each other with tectonic serpentinite, periodit,gabro and marble, green schist derived from metamorphic group of Tokat and rock community consisting of metavolcanitic are named Refahiye Complex.

Serpentinite usually consists of antigorite and textured peridodit protogranular, serpentinized in some places, mainly olivine, poiklitic growing, pyroxene (mostly ortopyroxene) and chrome spinel.It is seen harzburjit dominant, lerzolit in some places, verlit de dunit. Gabro includes plagioclase (usually uranited) and clinopyroxene.In addition, microgavro and diabase dikes that cut serpentinized perdodits are usual.

Peridotit is the most common type of rock. Serpentinite is not as common as peridodit and is usually between peridotit and metamorphics. Serpentinization has developed depending on tectonic processes between peridodit and metamorphics. Gabro is is a rock type that gives the smallest extent of surfacing among the other rock types. Other than gabro surfacing in limited area, microgavro and diabase dikes that cut serpentinized perdodits are usual.

The location and features of metamorphics that present wide surfaces in study area are examined in detail in Refahiye Complex. Metamorphics mainly consist of green schist,metavolcanit and marble and include metaturbidit in some places, metacort contributions. According to their today’s situations, the lower levels of metamorphics are in the status of green schist, metabazit, metaturbit and metacort and the top levels of them are in the status of marble and kalkshist dominant rock type.Although metamorphics may be a part of the continent crust in the age before Liyas, they are located between Refahiye Complex and mixture in tectonic slices today.

Mesozoic

Jura-Lower Cretaceous Kelkit Relative Autochthonous

Kelkit Relative Autochthonous located in the northern part of the study area and

offering their Pondites’ typical features of the southern part is named from the district of Kelkit. This field is located in the upper part of Kelkit Brook. Liyas old Haciomer formation composed of clastic rocks mostly comes with unconformity on basic rocks of Kelkit Relative Autochthonous and on Haciomer formation , Berdiga formation composed of old platform type carbonates of Middle-Upper Jurassic-Lower Cretaceous is located compatibly.

Old Altınoluk group of Upper Cretaceous-Paleocene is located with angular

unconformity on the other older formations.

Haciomer Formation JKh (JKp – JKk - JKe)

Haciomer formation is accepted that it is usually composed of tuff,sandstone and pebbles and is represented terrestrial Liyas according to palynologic examinations. Wide surfacing between Kelkit Brook and Kekit District is displaying all the typical features of the formation.

Haciomer formation is basicly composed of piroclastic rocks (JKp) ( agglomerate, breccia, tuff) , limestone (JKk) and epilastic rocks (JKe) (pebble, sandstone, argillaceous limestone,shale). In addition , the level of coal ,shale,and volcanic flows between the floors in places are followed.Glassy and clastic rocks of piroclastitcs with the pulp and supplies of volcanic flows have become quite chlorite and carbonate. Tuffs consists of fine-grained and glassy basalt, plagioclase,quartz and pieces of dolerite in a pulp contained chlorite. Volcanites are seen syncline type of cross bedding in places on the section of andesitic ,gradeful bedding ,coeval with deposition shift and folding. Limestone levels that is east-west extension in places between Camoluk and Kelkit in the southern part of Hacıomer formation are 15.00-20.00 m thick and are usually located between pyroclastic rocks.

Haciomer formation is only surfacing pyroclastic rocks (JKp) (agglomerate, breccia, tuff) in the project area. Haciomer formation is 1500 m thick,its northern part is terrestrial and its southern part represents marine environment and both two facies can be said to be transitive. Formation is in the age of Jurassic-Lower Cretaceous.

Berdiga Formation (JKb)

The lower section of Berdiga formation that is located in the study area and is represented with old platform type carbonates of Middle-Upper Jurassic-Lower Cretaceous consists of pebble, sandstone, tuff, grain-supported gravelly sandy limestone in places. This section passes to medium-thick layer limestone in accordance gray. The upper parts of the rocks that are in the quality of dolomitic in places are dominated by limestone that presents the structures with eggstone,intraklast and eyelete.

This unit’s southern part is steep slopes and its middle part is folded and presents an imbricate structure in places. In the Further North, Berdiga formation is under the the younger units. The level of Berdiga formation that is usually clastic rust-coloured limestone comes as compatible on the upper part of Hacıomer formation consisting of limestone. It is seen that there is a gradually transition between the two units.

It can be said that the tickness of Berdiga formation is between approximately 350

–1000 m. It is seen that this unit’s lower part is composed of quite clastixc volcanic limestone and it passes to top place that is dominated by carbonate and is the character of dolomitic in places. Laterally,formation does not show significant differences.

It can be said that Berdiga formation presents an old continent shelf of Middle-Upper Jurassic-Lower Cretaceous and this shelf becomes increasingly shallow towards the upper levels. Formation is in the age of Jurassic-Lower Cretaceous.

Cimendagi Nappe

Cimendagı nappe is divided into two parts.The lower part is Yenikoy formation in the age of Jurassic-Lower Cretaceous and usually composed of limestone and olistostromal materials. And the upper part is Tornuk formation usually formed from the Upper Cretaceous clastic rocks. In the Project area, only Tornuk formation of Cimendagı Nappe is surfacing.

Tornuk Formation ( Kt ) Tornuk formation is composed pebble,red plagic limestone , sandstone, claystone,

shale and argillaceous sandy limestone. Formation starts at the bottom with local pebble. First, pebble passes to thin gravelly-sandy limestone and then it passes to red-coloured limestone consisting plenty of pelagic forms ,20-30 m thick that is medium-thin layer. Red-coloured limestone passes with compatibly to intercalation of blocky sandstone-claystone-shale. The upper part of the formation is composed of limestones that are sandy, gravelly in some places, gray-coloured and medium-thick bedded.

When Tornuk formation’s fossil scope , the change of the characters of rock types and its location is examined, It is understood that formation was shallow at first, and then deposited in open marine environment ,then open marine environment became increasingly shallow.

Tornuk formation comes with angular unconformity on the formation that is under it. Its thickkness is 500 m and its age is Senoniyen.

Cenozoic

Old Eocene rocks in the study area offers differences in terms of rock type and sequence from north to south. These differences result from the quality of bedrock and sedimentation environment. Therefore, properties of rocks that offer different features are discussed and it is preferred to be named in a seperate formation. According to this, old Eocene sediments in the region of Kelkit-Alucra are named as Masuran formation, volcanites are named as Calgan volcanites and Eocene rocks in the region of Cimen Mountain are named as Gazipasa clastic rocks. In the Project area ,only units belonging to Gazipasa clastic rocks are surfacing.

Gazipinari Clastic Rocks (Tg) Gazipinaricalstic rocks are in the age of old and younger Eocene (not being

departed) and are composed of the group of blocky rock type locally. It is composed of yellowish gray-brown, purplish from place to place, greenish yellow, medium-thick bedded main blocky pebble, sandstone and intercalation of claystone from place to place. Cola levels are seen between sandstone and claystone from place to place. Pebbles are derived from mainly limestone, schist and volcanites and they are generally well-rounded and they are bad gradation. In some places, gradual and crosss bedding is seen. Limestone ophiolitics that their lenght is up to several hundred meters are common.

Gazipinari clastic rocks come with angular unconformity on Cimen Mountain Nappe and the Rocks of Erzincan Nappe that is composed of the complex of ophiolitic. Gazipinari clastic rocks are 500 m thick and in the age of Eocene.

Anthropogene

Travertine formations are composed of young formations of the project area and they are displaying surfacing where active faults are.

Alluvion (Qal)

Throughout Kelkit Brook, alluvion accumulation is found in restricted areas because the bed slope is high. It is thin and narrow spreading, bad gradation and the size of block and pebble in alluvion that is in the feature of pebble with large block is smaller relatively from foundation to downstream and thickness and spreading of alluvion is increasing from fountain to downstream because the bed slope reduces. Alluvion whose thickness ranges between about 4.00-5.00 m was formed in the river bed of Kelkit Brook in the fountain and downstream of project area.

In alluvion accumulation that is observed throughout Kelkit Brook in restricted

areas , components such as polygenic derived from the rocks in thee upper level, round-half-rounded basalt , andesite , granite , limestone etc. are observed predominantly. Alluvion material is the size of approximately 30% of block, 55% gravel-sand,15% of silt-clay.

Geology of Study Area Weir Axis Location Alluvion surfaces that are the basis of weir axis location in the study area are

consisting of block, gravel, sand, clay according to distribution of grain and size. They are composed of weathering and moving of surrounding rocks. Their components are composed of rock fragments such as marble, serpentine, andazite, quartzite, cort. These lithologies are found in the mixture at different rates with each other such as blocy sandy clayey gravel,gravelly clayey and cementless. Grain shapes are round-half-rounded and semi-curcular.

Conveyance Route Conveyance Tunnel-1 It will be made between 0+000 - 1+803.76 km. Travertines composes the stack of

this route from the surface to approximately 20 m deep and conglomerate composes under this unit. The tunnel will be constructed on the intercalation of conglomerate and clay stone-silit Stone.

Travertines have yellowish white coloured, little-medium crack surfaces that are

wavy and rough, cracks that are clay-silt and calcite –filled from place to place, and they are perpendicular to progress and rarely bias. Their joints are irregular and they have melting gaps.At some levels, these gaps varies between 1-10 cm. Due to decomposition, becoming clay is observed from place to place.

Conglomerates that are under this unit are reddish coloured, less decomposed,

crackedand they have crack surfaces that are wavy and rough , their joints are perpendicular to progress , their joint surfaces are clay-silt-filled and from the type of solid rock. Conglomerate has clay levels and transitions in different thicknesses(10 cm-50 cm). The gravels composing conglomerate are angled and their maximum size is 4 cm.

Conveyance Channel-1 It will be constructed between 1+803 and 3+500 kms. Conveyance channels that

will be constructed between these kilometers are on the unit that is locally blocky, yellowish gray-brown, medium-thick bedded , intercalation of conglomerate-sandstone and claystone.These units are Claystone, Sandstone and Conglomerate.

Conveyance Tunnel -2- Conveyance Channel -2 Locally blocky talus whose thickness is varying between 3 and 22 m is found on

the upper part of the route between 3+500 and 5+246 kms. Under the talus, there is claystone-silitstone,sandstone and limestone of Haciomer formation.

Power Plant Building The thickness of alluvion surface under power plant building is between 3 and 6 m.

Dolomitic limestone composes the surface of power plant building because this unit will be removed with excavation. It is yellowish-white-beige colour , little-medium cracked, their

cracks are filled with calcite and their cracked surfaces are rusty-rough and rarely polished-bright, their joints are perpendicular to progress and rarely bias and decomposed in little moderate degree.

Structural Geology and Tectonics

Structural elements of the study area has four sections; these are the structure of

Golova (Agvanis) metamorphics, other structures before Eocene (especially nappe movements), structures developed in Eocene and later and structures developed under the influence of North Anatolian Fault Zone.

The Structure of Golova (Agvanis) Metamorphics These metamorphics is probably in a block status within the ophiolitic complex and

it offers some unique structural features. Most prominent structural feature of Agvanis metamorphics is foliation. Foliation is well developed particularly in fine-grained and block micaceous type of rocks. Foliation is paralel to bedding and it is determined with parallel arrangement of mica grains.

Foliation planes are developed in two different ways in Agvanis metamorphics.

Foliation planes in the western part of Agvanis metamorphics are in the direction of NW-SE (K60-80B) and are inclined to NE or SW with different angles (10–60). In the eastern part, the direction of the foliation planes is roughly N-S and are inclined generally to west.

Isoclinal and closed curves are seen in metatuff and kalkschist displaying bedding in the Group of Agvanis. The axes of these planes that are usually observed in a large scale is paralel to foliation; fold axis branches to the west with small angles (60-120. Asidic intrusives after regional metamorphism have affected and changed significantly the overall structure of Agvanis metamorphics.

North Anatolian Fault Zone

This zone is approximately northwest-southeast direction and is passing through the middle of the study area. Today, active faults are drawn in bold and placed their movement direction. Young units are surfacing on plains and older formations are surfacing in the mountains that are in the north and south.

Because North Anatolian Fault is dominated by the right directional , it leads to the

development of plains in the form of the graben and it leads to the development of the mountains in the north and south in the form of the horst.

Also a large part of faults that affect Agvanis metamorphics and surrounding rocks is developed related to North Anatlian Fault system. Other than main faults that limits metamorphics from the north and the south , there are many vertical faults in paralel to these and cutting metamorphics.

As is known, the main movement of faults related to North Anatolian Fault system is right lateral movement ; but there are important vertical movements of faults that affects metamorphics. All the fault planes are perpendicular and usually creates significant morphological structures. Kelkit Fault that limits metamorphics from the north creates a steep slope. Fault plane inclined 700-800 to north is clearly visible in a few places. In the

Page 36: armahes power generation co. muratli weir, hepp & concrete ...

Armahes Power Generation Company Muratli Weir, HEPP and Concrete Plant Project

23

western part , there is a rubble pond whose thickness is over 50 metres just north of the North Fault and derived from the material of metamorphics. Although Kelkit Fault is a very distinct as morphological, it is not active and is cut with N-S going small lateral tearing faults.

Agvanis metamorphics has the appearance of a horst bounded with faults from

north and south. Metamorphic rocks from 500 to around 1000 meters found to be elevated to a block can be explained with the compression that is a result of simultaneous action of two main faults parallel to each other (Kelkit and Agvanis faults) and connected with North Anatolian Fault Zone.

Natural Disaster Conditions

Earthquake The project is located at 13 km north of North Anatolian Fault that is shown in

Fişgure 10 and earthquake motions that are likely to be effective in the future on the Project Area are determined doing Eartquake Risk Analysis Study because there are so many earthquakes, the worst 1939 Erzincan eartquake (M=7.9), in this area in history. Eartquake Risk Analysis Study is given in Appendix-6 and a brief summary of the study is discussed below.

Earthquake Risk Analysis Study Earthquake Risk Analysis Report prepared in the Project is given in Appendix-6. The

earthquake risk of the places of Muratli Weir and HEPP is determined using probabilistic method.In addition , the results are compared calculating deterministic method.

For determination of earthquake risk of the Project area as rational with probability

method , A-1 Area ve L-1 Line resources are created on the prepared seismotectonics map. The location of Muratli Weir and HEPP is in L-1 line resource. L-1 Resource is

located on North Anatolia fault. Considering earthquakes with magnitude M>=4.0 happened in the area between the years of 1900-2003, designed this resource model is used as a main resource for determination of the earthquake risk of the location of Muratli Weir and HEPP with probability method.

By determinig the parameters of earthquake sources, they are applied to the

computer program prepared according to Poisson probability theory.Therefore, eartquake momentum-risk values are calculated for the location of Muratli Weir and HEPP.

Possibilities are provided a wide range of amenities for easy choice. In deterministic study ,independent of the probability method, momentum in the location of Muratli Weir and HEPP created by detrimental and violent earthquakes that happened in the region in the past is calculated directly using decay relations suggested by various researchers. The highest value of momentum found with deterministic calculation a=373 cm/s2. This value is under the values obtained with probability method.

As a result, for the location of Muratli Weir and HEPP in the light of the calculations and assessments below;

• Maximum Design Earthquake (MDE) as the value of peak location momentum 666 cm/sn2 (0.67 g.),

• Operation Basis Earthquake OBE) as the value of peak location momentum 339 cm/sn2 (0.34 g.) ,

• The Most Severe Earthquake That May Occur (MSE) for the value of the earthquake whose Richter Magnitude is M=8.5 will be taken into consideration in the Project.

Landslide-Avalanches

Within the Project, drilling work is done at total of 18 different points in the weir area (5 ), conveyance route (channel and tunnel) (4 ),head pond(1), penstock route(4) and power plant building (4). Field tests has also been done with drilling work, Geological and Geotechnical Investigation Report has been prepared containing these studies and their results. As mentioned in the Geological and Geotechnical Investigation Report, there is blocky ruble slope thickness ranging from 3 to 22 m in the upper part in the route of conveyance tunnel 2 and conveyance channel 2 between 3+500 and 5+246 kms.It is necessary to determine slope angle and slope height carefully and terracing must be done if necessary especially in deep excavation digging due to high topographic gradient in these parts.

The leakage of water into ground should be prevented from conveyance tunnels that will be constructed in talus parts.Otherwise,lanslide may be inevitable in case of leakage of water into the ground. The measures have to be taken before construction according to the problems caused by soil parameters like different seating and floor magnification and stability problems that will occur in excavation slopes especially in rainy seasons because the talus has a loose structure. The measures that have to be taken are given below.

1. By terracing on steep slopes, their slope will be reduced and afforested.

2. The soil on sloping areas wants to slide towards the direction that slope is very step due to gravitational acceleration. Water will increase the specific gravity of the soil and will maximize the value of gravitational acceleration. When the lanslide areas are taken into consideration,landslide disaster can be seen also in some large wooded areas. Wide water channels that will be opened along the slopes come first of The Precautions To Be Taken Against Landslide in these regions. In this way, water will flow easily without penetration into soil and will prevent landslides.

The results of Geological and Geotechnical Investigation Report are mentioned

below.

1- Study area is located on 1st Degree of Earthquake Area. The provisions of “Regulations About Buildings That Will Be Done In Disaster Areas” published by General Directorate Of Disaster Affairs have to be obeyed in buildings that will be built. In Regulations About Buildings That Will Be Done In Disaster Areas , according to regulations related to ground groups and categories ,grounds located in the study area can be included in C group and local ground class.

2- For preliminary approach about the carrying capacity of soils in the report,

calculated surface tension of safety should not be used in static calculations. Also considering fit amounts that will occur ground tension of safety; it should be calculated according to building foundation depth, load that will be transferred superstructure to the ground,the size of basis elements and basis types in studies on parcel basis.

3- In study route as a result of compression of the main floor with cylinder,the

sensitivity of the floor can be strengthened.

4- Having the feature of earthquake area, it will be correct to be avoided from structural design applications that will lead twisting. The construction made with basement increases the strength of ground transportation.If DF/b ratio increases, bearing capacity increases.

5- When relative frequency,internal friction angle and standart penetration (SPT) ,

obtained the number of pulses, relations between N are evaluated in alluvial soil in the study area ; relative frequency is defined as loose .

6- The ground water level is found in different meters in drilling that is made in the

working area.In addition Kelkit River passes through study area and there are so many dry stream beds connected to this river.

7- Units in study area are in appropriate characters in terms of capacity and being basis feature.

8- Compliance with the study area in terms of settlement,it is divided into two main

groups as appropriate areas and important areas.

Appropriate Area It is the area that power plant building will be made in study area. Important Area The routes that conveyance tunnels,head pond,conveyance channels and weir axis

will pass through in the project area are defined as important area. Measures should be taken before construction in the routes of conveyance tunnels

because the area is in the 1st degree earthquake region and NAF passes through the study area.

The routes of conveyance channels are evaluated in important area status because

of high topographic slope. Especially in deep excavation digging , slope angles and slope heights should be determined carefully and terracing should be done if necessary. In addition , the leakage of water into ground should be prevented from conveyance tunnels that will be constructed in talus parts. Water leaking into ground affects negatively the floor cohesion and its internal frinction and causes a decrease in main floor resistance . The measures have to be taken before construction according to the problems caused by soil parameters like different seating and floor magnification and stability problems that will occur in excavation slopes especially in rainy seasons because of being a loose structure.

IV.2.3. Hydrological Features of Groundwater and Thermal Water Sources

(Water Levels, Quantities, Safe Gravity Values, Flows Of Sources, Existing and Planned Usage)

Giresun Province groundwater total secure reserves is 135 hm³/year. Flows of

groundwater sources in area are found too low in studies conducted by SHW in the entire province in terms of groundwater in surrounding areas between Bulancak and Pazarsuyu Brooks and Espiye-Tirebolu coastal plains and their surrounding areas.The lowest hardness degree is 1.5 and the highest hardness degree is 33.

Giresun Province in terms of healing water sources isn’t more rich.Among the

healing waters in province can be considered as Center Inişdibi, Camlıkoy and Yavuz Kemal in Dereli, Cuce Village in Espiye , Bhanos, Karaaslan and Sebinkarahisar mineral waters in Sebinkarahisar.

Ground water potential in the province within the borders of Sivas is totaly 44 hm3/year. As a city, Sivas is located among non-problem cities in terms of the amount of water. There is no poblem in terms of surface and underground water as the amount.However, the current water hardness is slightly higher. This situation is a result of geological structure. In a very large area within the city of Sivas , Miocene with old gypsum geological formations are available.

Page 41: armahes power generation co. muratli weir, hepp & concrete ...

Armahes Power Generation Company Muratli Weir, HEPP and Concrete Plant Project

28

As waters in contact with these rock units can solve very easily these rocks, the salinity of water and depending on this ,the hardness of water is more. Gypsum units having wide spread in the region is karst-widespread and , subsidence areas , dolines and caves that are typical shapes of karst morphology on their surfaces are observed. Goydun and Seyfe resources that are region’s largest source flow (1 m3/sn up) are karst sources discharging from these units.

Sivas city and its immediate surroundings, Kizilirmak alluvium river bed aquifer

carries plenty of water because of feding from river.However, because the water of river is salty as a result of currency effects of gypsum, alluvium aqufier also includes high hardness of salty water. Neogene old limestone aqufier is the aqufier of drinking and using water of Sivas city. Approximately 49 % amount of drinking and using water of Sivas city is met from Tavra Valley basin( Neogen old units) in the north of the city formed of limestone with gypsum units do not exist and 51% part of it is met from 4 Eylul Dam built on Mismilirmak Brook in Pirkinik basin in the east of Tavra Valley basin.The hardness of water of Tavra Valley changes between 15-32 French hardness (city water supply’s hardness is between 29-32 F.So ) (Kaçaroğlu and Sahin,1994). The hardness of water in Pirkinik region is a little bit more than these values. Water used in University has much more hardness because of region’s gypsum units and under effect of Kizilirmak water.

Sivas people meets their low hardness of fresh water need from Street Fountains

flowing from Kepenek (7-8 L/sn, hardness 14 F.So) and Behrampasa (25 L/sn, hardness 20 FS) resource waters coming out of Tavra Valley region.

IV.2.4 Hydrological and Ecological Features of Shallow Water Sources Analysis of Muratli Weir and HEPP water samples are carried out by taking into consideration of physical and chemical,organic, inorganic pollution parameters by Alka Environmental Laboratory. When obtained results are compared with the limit values outlined in Water Pollution Control Regulations, water quality in weir and HEPP is identified as third class.Analysis reports are presented in Appendix-7. Information on ecological features of Kelkit Brook is mentioned in Part IV.2.10.

IV.2.5. Existing and Planned Usage of Shallow Water Sources (Drinking, Using, Watering, Fishery Products, Intercommunication, Tourism, Electricity Production, Other Usages At the downstream of the project , the most important source of surface water is Kelkit Brook. On Kelkit Brook, there are HEPP and Kılıckaya Dam from 25 km of Susehri District commissioned in 1990 for the purposes of energy,flood protection and control. Kılıckaya Dam ve HEPP’s installed power is 124 MW, their annual energy production is 332 GWh and lake area in normal water level is 64,4 km2.

From 8 km distance to Susehri District, there are Camligoze Dam and HEPP on

Kelkit Brook for the purpose of producing energy commissioned in 1998. Installed power of the dam which has a clay core rockfill body is 33 MW , its annual energy production is 102 GWh and lake volume in normal water level is 59 hm3.(www.dsi.gov.tr/region/sivas).

29

Two dams mentioned above are in the boundaries of Sivas Province and they are located at the downstream of Muratli Weir and HEPP Project (see Figure 16). Therefore, the Project will not be influenced in any way by the performance of either or both of these dams. For the reason explained above there is nothing to do with Dam Safety. Within the boundaries of Giresun Province, there are no projects made or planned on Kelkit Brook. (www.dsi.gov.tr/region/giresun).

Giresun Province, Camoluk District According to Camoluk District Directorate of Agriculture Data ,there are 4200 cattle, 800 ovine and about 200 single-hoofed animals. Animal husbandry is available within each family and is usually made for family needs. Population less than 5% make animal husbandry for commercial purpose.Very small amount of milk,yoghurt and cheese are sold. At the region, due to the low productivity of local native breeds, demand on highly productive European breed is increasing.

In addition, significant progress has been made in the field of beekeeping and the

number of bee hives in the county is 4000. Honey production is around 40 tons per year.Agricultural Credit Cooperative that was also effective on agricultural activities and providing finance in the county was closed and it has been connected to Alucra Cooperative.(www.camoluk.gov.tr)

Structure,Distribution of Local Work Potency To These Sectors, Place and Importance in Local and Nation’s Economy in Sectors’ Goods and Service Production ,Other Information

Bovine breeding is especially common in Golova District of Sivas Province.Dairy,

milk plant and a similar facility that will evaluate daily milk in county aren’t available.Ovine breeding that was extremely made formerly in county has shown decline in recent years.Efforts are made for reviving and becoming widespread of ovine breeding with projects carried out by the District Governorship of Golova. A big decline has become in beekeeping activities because of extensive migration.

A new business arm was emerged as fishery with Golova Lake Dam.Fisheries Cooperative was found for appraising the fish in the lake the best.8 tons of fish( carp,mirror carp, freshwater mullet) average per year are sold to domestic market by this Cooperative. (www.golova.gov.tr)

In terms of social features, a large part of the general population in Camoluk District

of Giresun Province is expat and they live in İstanbul and come back to District in summers.

In terms of economical features, There are no industiral investment in the

county.Therefore, families in rural areas have migrated to big cities for working.Small–scale agricultural activities and fruit and vegetable production is done during summer months in the region. People’s main source of livelihood is animal husbandry.It is seen in recent years that the importance is given to beekeeping,cattle care and productivity (www.camoluk.gov.tr).

After the construction phase of the project, concrete plants will not be used. Landscape arrangements in the area will be made in order to be able to be used the area again.

Figure 12 Typical Layout of a Concrete Plant

Figure 12 presents typical layout of a concrete plant. Aggregate and sand are fed to

the system from bunker. Being weighted at the weight platform, aggregate and sand are mixed with the cement and water at the mixer. Concrete prepared at the mixer will be loaded to the concrete trucks and transported to construction sites. Bunker, weighting platform, mixer and cement silos are closed systems, therefore, dust will not be generated from concrete plant. In addition, since all water, aggregate and sand will be used for concrete preparation any type of wastewater and solid waste will not be generated.

Main noise sources of concrete plant are concrete mixer and concrete pump. There

will be 1 mixer and 1 concrete punt at the facility and noise power levels of each equipment are 115 dBA.

Equivalent noise level generated by both noise sources are calculated by the

following formula:

As seen from Table 25, noise level reaching to settlement is 500 m away from the concrete plant is 56 dBA that is well below the limit value. Therefore, noise originated from the concrete plant will not create any adverse impact on nearest residential area.

V.1.7. Ground Safety, Landslide(High Landslide Risk In The Region Also Be

Considered.)Making Operations Not To Happen A Water Leakage,Measures That Will Be Taken In Construction Of The Tunnel and Channel

Weir structure within the Project is the important structure of the system. Soil excavations should not be made by blasting, hydraulic jaws should be absolutely used in rigid excavations,especially ground floor should not be crumpled. Weak bases that can be

43

appeared in ground floor should be evacuated and these segments should be filled with concrete. In cross sectional excavation that will be made,ground stability and sensitivity of dominant ground should be taken into consideration and slope angles should be given. In the excavations of chest incision, the head ditches should be projected by being calculated land’s slope flow and the flow of the water that will flow in maximum precipitation on the slope.Downstreams of these should be connected to river bed.The swelling of concrete should be prevented by being laid filtered drainage pipes under closing slabs.These drainages should be drained behind the edge walls and should be connected to river bed. Concrete aggregates of weir should not include porous materials,unit volume weight must be on specification criteria (min. 1,5 kg/cm3) and flat material should not be used. It is recommended that pollution (organic matter etc.) should not exceed 1%.

Cement that is used in concrete production should be resistant to alcali and cement of

high fineness module. Mixture account should be made in the ratio of water/cement that the extent will not exceed the amount of water that will enter in hydration. In order to obtain spaceless concrete , additive should be used if needed. Dosage that is used in production should be determined by making account of dose that will give high strength. Used concrete must be placed before setting.

Great care should be taken about this.Necessary care should be taken because

concrete cure is the factor that extends/shortens life of the concrete.Molds that are used on walls (visible surfaces) should be plywood-based molds. Chiping must be done on concrete surface that was poured previously for wall concrete that will pour on the base, also on this surface, wall concrete should be provided to be locked with the base by giving trapezodial tooth formation at the end of concrete phase on fresh concrete horizontally.

In transverse and longitudinal joints of raft concrete , A-type water holder should be

used. Private sockets should be designed in moulds in order to place the water holders vertical and full section to the mould in these sections.

Discharge of the water from slopes should be provided being filled with granular

material behind the wall of Weir. The concrete surfaces of curved weir should be polished without roughness. Otherwise, hydraulic force of water will cause turmoil carving and expanding the overhangs.

Concrete should be placed in their section in height and speed that will not permit

segregation. Concrete placed in the cross-section horizontally with workers’ skill by not moving the cross section inside, measures should be taken first while being placed in the section.Concrete according to section that will place should be beaten with vibrators that vibration velocity and diameter are suitable. Vibrators should be submitted as quickly as possible with the right angle into concrete but should be withdrawn more slowly.

Vibration should be enough in the bottom layer for connecting the concrete layer

whose depth spreading down to the upper layer. Concrete should be spread into mould in equal height.This height will be set

according to the volume of mass concrete and measures between 30-50 cm are ideal. Reinforced concrete irons should be without joined and anchorage as possible. The concrete cover distance in project should be taken into consideration. They must be in 4200 kg/cm2 breaking strength according to iron specipications, rolled iron should not be used. Elements like oxide shoul not be on the iron. Elements like permanent installations(

cover slots, radial valve handles) that will be installed into the concrete should not be installed by creating eccentricity into sections, it can cause deformation because the installation that is done in this way will take also the voltage of the other valve handle on medium feet. These valves should be painted three times with red lead paint , the dyes must be renewed from time to time during business.

Pipe trench excavations should be done according to excavation plans that are

sectioned according to diameters of pipe. Cushion material that is specified in specifications should be placed carefully, mixture of sand-gravel materials should be appropriate. Cushion filling should be applied up to the level seen in the pipe installation section. Likewise, the liner filling should be placed to the sides of the pipe up to the height of the section. Linee filling should be pressed firmly around the pipe with man power,if any gaps or inadequate compression occur, it will cause the pipe breaking because compressed pipe will make displacement to that way.

Installation weld of penstock in the route that is starting from downstream is

important to be made. X-ray of all installations should be taken. Welding operations should be done using shielded carbon electrode welding on steel pipes.Resource calculations ,depending on thickness of the pipe should be designed to meet the pressure coming from the source.

Filling of the top of the pipes should be compressed in the ratio that water will not

pass to the base of the pipe trench. Otherwise , pipeline will be damaged in the events of freze-thaw events pipeline.

In order to meet axial load of water in the penstockproject, line from various places

must be connected to the ground with concrete that is determined. Otherwise,in case of sudden pressure and discharge, negative moments that will arise from swelling and shrinkage will cause deformation of the line.

The back parts of side walls’ concrete of head pond should be filled with granular

materials, accumulated water should be removed with drain pipes that will be placed to the base. Priority should be the building of the roads according to construction line. Then weir structures, pipelines construction and power plant building can be done. The priority operation is the project’s application by establishing the coordinate system at first.Type section should be made in accordance with the technical specifications of the permanent way because the facility will be used for many years. Most of the year will be passed in winter conditions because of the region that project will be established.

Therefore, it shouldn’t be thought that these roads will be used as a detour during the

construction period, route of the line should not allow to ponds on the slopes of transverse and longitudinal. Drainage trenches on the sides should always be on the function of the size and capacity.

V.1.11. Water Quantities Taken From The Sources That Water Will Be Ensured To Be Used Within The Context Of The Project,Water Supply System and Amounts According To Usage Purposes Of These Waters ,Kinds and Amounts Of Waste Water That Will Occur,The Environments That They Will Be Discharged,

The main points of water use in the construction phase of the project are as follows;

a) Concrete mix water necessary for the construction,

b) Water required for washing the equipments (mixer,pan mixer,pumps etc.)of concrete plant,

c) Spraying water for the prevention of dust d) Water for drinking-using purposes will be for staff.

Water need for personel use , concrete mix water,water need for washing the

equipments of concrete plant and prevention of dust will be provided from caission well that will be opened int area of the project.

Drinking-using water of personnel that will work in the project will be provided from

mains water og Cevizli Neighborhood. Water Use Quantity According To Intended Use Washing Of The Equipments Of The Concrete Plant 50 m3 water is consumed per day for washing the mixers,pumps in concrete plant. Spraying Water The quantity of water that will be used for prevention of dust in the operations of

spraying at the stage of the construction is not known and sufficient irrigation will be carried out providing the 10% of the top layer of soil to keep moist in the areas that will be excavated or excavation material will be poured. It is anticipated that average 15.000 lt (15 m3/day) per day of water consumption will be for this operation out of the days that are rainy and snowy in the region.

Waste Formation Resources Waste water containing high suspended solids will occur as a result of equipment

wash in land preparation and construction phase of the project that personel will work and in the concrete production process stage of the ready-mixed concrete plant.

Domestic Wastewater Originating From Personnel Wastewater originating from total 75 of personnel that will work in construction of

units and in concrete plant will be domestic. Total of 75 people will be executed for the land preparation and construction phase

of the project. In this case; the amount of wastewater and pollution loads that will occur from wastewater is calculated below. Daily average water consumption per capita in calculations is accepted as 150 liters and pollution load is accepted as 54 g BOI.

Using water need = person x ave. water consumption = 75 x 150 = 11.250 lt/day Total pollution load = person x ave. pollution load = 75 x 54 = 4.050 g BOD/day If water that is used by personnel returns as %100 of wastewater, Wastewater amount = using water need x the percentage of transfer= 11.250 lt/day x

1,0 = will be 11.250 lt/day (11,25 m3).

Total of the wastewater that occur from 75 personnel working for land preparation and construction phase of the project is 11,25 m3 .

Domestic wastewaters contain suspended ,colloidal, and dissolved organic and

inorganic substances. Climatic conditions, living standards of people and cultural mores affect the wastewater characteristics significantly. Concentrations varies depending on the values of daily water usage per capita. Although the amount of waste discharged to water is different from according to the characteristics of the societies , this difference is not so high.

In Table 28, the characteristics of typical domestic wastewater that are raw, unrefined and never been subjected to a process are given. As can be seen from the Table, Waste consists of very large rate of organic food like carbon , nitrogen , phosphorus and high concentrations of microorganisms. These are inclined to disintegrate quickly and their biological degradation continues even when they flow from the channel. Thus, some features of wastewater are changing over time.

All values in the table are given in the unit of g/person-day in terms of being used in

designing easily and compared easily for different societies.

domestic solid waste into the seas, lakes, and environments like these ,streets, forests and the places that environment will be negatively affected is strictly prohibited as stated in the Article 18 of “Solid Waste Control Regulation” published in O.G dated 14 March,1991 No.20814. So, solid waste that will occur in the Project will be collected in closed containers in the construction site area and they will be removed regularly in the field with garbage collection of Camoluk Municipality with private covered vehicles by employees.

At the stage of removing solid waste that has occured in the Project, It will be strictly

obeyed “The Regulations On Solid Waste Control” published in Official Gazette dated March 14,1991 No.20814. with the alterations published in Official Gazette dated April 3, 1991 and No. 20834 , dated February 22,1992 and No. 21150 , dated November 2,1994 and No. 22099 , dated September 15 , 1998 and No. 23464 , dated September 18, 1999 and No. 23790 , dated April 29 ,2000 and No. 24034 , dated April 25, 2002 and No. 24736 , dated April 5 , 2005 and No. 25777. The articles of The Regulations On Solid Waste Control that will be complied with within this project are:

Article 5; municipalities are responsible with proper collection and disposal of solid

wastes and taking the necessary measures to minimize the impact on environment. Article 8; hazardous wastes, packing materials and domestic solid wastes shall be

collected and store separately. Article 18; disposal of solid wastes to river, lake, sea and similar receiving

environments, streets and forests are strictly forbidden. Waste containers where solid wastes are collected shall be kept close and shall be located on the streets at the time of collection by the municipality.

Excavation Waste The preparation of the land and excavation operations of the base will be made

before the construction of the facilities within the project. Primarily in the context of this work vegetable soil on the surface will be removed. As a result of the excavation work, excavation waste will occur.

Materials of excavation waste that will occur except vegetable soil will be carried to

cover molding casting area near the weir by trucks in order to prevent the random thrown out of the places from construction area and will be stored here temporarily. Evaluable ones of the materials that will occur after excavation will be used as concrete aggregate material. Rock material obtained by the excavation process will be used as filling material for the constructions of power plant building and cofferdam within the units of the project. The remaining excavation material is used as exhibition material in either new or improved access roads.

The removing of the excavation waste that will occur within the projects, İt will be

strictly obeyed the provisions of Excavation Soil, Waste of Construction and Ruin Waste Control Regulations published in O.G. dated March18 , 2004 and No. 25406 (The provisions of Article 9., 13., 14., 16. and 23. ).

The Bottom Mud Of The Settling ditch One settling ditch will be planned on the concrete power plant within the project.

Because of the material’s including aggregate material that is accumulated at the bottom of the settling ditchs, İt will be dried in the borders of the facility area and then will be used as filling material within the project. The material at the bottom of the settling ditch will be cleaned two times in a month.

Solid Waste Originating From Construction Timber residues, cement kraft , construction iron,iron pipes,concrete and injection of

waste materials will be during construction work. These waste will be collected within appropriate regions in the project and will be sent to licensed recycling facilities.

Concrete and injection waste of materials will be used as filling material. V.1.13. Vibration That Will Happen Because Of Operations Beginning From

The Preparation Of The Area To Opening The Units, Sources and Level Of Noise, Cumulative Values,

The list of total machinery and equipment that will be used during the constructions

of Muratlı Weir ve HEPP Project is given in Table 23. The machinery that will be used during the work in the area is the same except for tunnel constructions. Engineering machines will be calculated only once because they are the same and are used in the same construction areas to avoid repetition of calculation but they will be evaluated apart from each other. The noise of machineries working in the tunnel do not damage the environment or do not affect the environment negatively. So, any calculations about tunnel operations will not be made.

Noise calculations are made according to the worst case considering all engineering

machineries working together. In addition , Rock Drill will be used only in tunnel construction during construction operation and will not be used the other units’ construction operations. So, the noise level of Rock Drill is not calculated in noise calculations.

Noise will occur as a result of working of the engineering machineries during the

preparation of the land and the constriction. These activities are not in the list of facilities subject to permission In Appendix-7 of “Environmental Noise Assessment and Management Regulation” that came to force and published in The Offical Gazette dated March 7,2008 and No.26809. For this reason, acoustic report has not been prepared for activities. Noise calculations are prepared based on the provisions of these regulations.

Limit values are given for construction site area in “Environmental Noise

Assessment and Management Regulation” of Article 23,Annex-8,Table 5 that came to force and published in The Offical Gazette dated March 7 ,2008 and No.26809. These values are presented as Table 29.

Total sound level according to distance originating from engineering machineries that will be used in the areas of Weir Area-Settling ditch-Head pond-Penstock-Power Plant Building is falling down the value (70 dBA) allowed after 100 m. The settlement nearest to Weir area is located 50 m away and the other areas are located approximately 1500 m away. As a result, noise problem is planned in the settlement only close to weir area. Noise calculations are performed for worst case scenario. In worst case scenario, it is assumed that all machinery and equipments are working at the same time and at the same location. According to the calculations, highest noise to be generated at the residential area 50 m from the construction site will be 76.6 dBA. In fact, occurrence of this worst case scenario has a very low probability to occur. Therefore, the noise level at the residential area will be much lower than the calculated. There is only one house at the residential area and the owners inhabit at this house only during summer season. Therefore, they will not be affected from the construction activities. However, to be on the safe side, work schedule will be arranged in a way to minimize the noise generation. The work schedule on weir site is arranged as follows; excavator, loader and truck will not work together with concrete pump and transmixer. First, the excavation works will be done, the engines of excavator, loader and truck will be turned off and alter concrete pump and transmixer will work. Related calculations about this schedule are given below. Equivalent noise level generated by both noise sources are calculated by the following formula:

Leq = 10 x log (1x10105/10 + 1x10105/10 + 1x10105/10) = 109,7 dB Equivalent noise level originated from the excataor, loader and truck is calculated as 109,7 dBA. Change of noise level with respect to distance calculated from the formula given below.

Equivalent noise level originated from the transmixer and concrete pump is calculated as 106,1 dBA. Change of noise level with respect to time transmixer and concrete pump is working is given in Table 41.

According to Turkish Regulation on Assessment and Management of Environmental Noise, the noise level originating from construction activities and reaching to residential areas must not exceed 70 dBA. As seen from Table 40, noise level reaching to settlement is 50 m away from the weir site is 67,7 dBA that is below the limit value when excavator, loader and truck is working. Similarly, as Table 41 indicates, when transmixer and concrete pump is working, noise level reaching to the nearest residential area is calculated as 64 dBA. This shows that such work schedule will remove the potential adverse impact of noise originated from weir construction. Therefore, concrete works will not be initiated before the excavation works are completed at the weir site.

The engineering machineries planned to work together in these areas are five trucks, two loaders, two excavator ,one concrete pump and one transmixer.

Noise levels obtained as a resut of calculations are given in Table 43.Total sound level according to distance originating from engineering machineries that will be used in the areas of Channel 1 and 2 is falling down the value (70 dBA) allowed after 200 m. The settlement nearest to Channel 1 and 2 is located 50 m away. As a result, noise problem is planned only in the nearest settlement. However , being topographic barries between the project land and the settlement , it will prevent the noise a certain extent. In addition , construction work is not continuous and it will continue for some time.

3) Noise Calculations of Construction Works of Construction Site

The engineering machineries planned to work together in these areas are one ready-

mixed concrete plant ,one concrete pump and one transmixer.

4 octave band sound pressure level of machineries that will be used in the project area is given in Table 46. Table 46 Sound Pressure Level In 4 Octave Band For Machineries That Will Be Used In Building Site Facility

Figure 15 Noise Levels According To Distances In Building Site Facility

Noise levels obtained as a resut of calculations are given in Table 46.Total sound level according to distance originating from engineering machineries that will be used in the facility of construction site is falling down the value (70 dBA) allowed after 50 m. The settlement nearest to construction site facility is located 75 m away. As a result, noise problem will not occur in the nearest settlement.

Noise From Tunnel Blasting Mainly, explosive materials will be used in tunnel excavation. Tunnel excavation

activities will be performed nearly 150 m- 200 m below the ground level. Therefore, dust and noise, originated from blasting in tunnel will not reach to the ground surface; therefore it will not create any adverse environmental impact.

The impact of vibration originated from the blasting activities conducted at rock

formations are calculated by Devine relation (Devine et al, 1966) given below:

Where; v = Speed of vibration through rock (inch/sec) k = Coefficient related to rock type (26-260) D = Effective distance between the nearest residential areas and site of blasting (feet) W= Amount of explosives at one delay time (pound) K coefficient is the capacity of the rock formation to transmit the vibration. Since the

rock formations at the project are homogenous and not fractured, this coefficient is taken as 260 according to the literature survey.

The amount of explosives that will be used in one hole will be 2 kg. According to

this information, the change of vibration with respect to distance is given in Table 50.

According to Turkish Regulation on Assessment and Management of Environmental

Noise, maximum allowable vibration level is 5 mm/sec. According to Table 50, after 100 m from the blasting site, vibration level will fall below 5 mm/sec. As stated before, tunnel construction activities will be conducted nearly 150-200 m below ground surface. Hence, blasting activities will not create any adverse impact on the nearest residential areas.

Noise from Surface Blasting

As a result of literature survey, it is found that noise level during the blasting operation can increase up to 140 dBA. Nearest residential area is 1500 m away from the surface blasting operations that will be conducted within the project. Using the formula given below change of noise with respect to distance is calculated and given in Table 51.

and How The Area Arrangements (Forestations and/or Green Land Arrangements etc.)Will Be Done For The Other Purposes,Plant and Tree Species That Will Be Chosen For This,

Landscape character that will begin to change in construction period will change ultimately from the period of establishment. The sources of changes in landscape character can be listed as;

- Changing surface cover (interms of surface water) - The vegetation that will be removed - Units that will be constructed or in use - The change in the pattern / use of the land - Topography

The biggest change that will be in visual sense is the structure of the river’s turning into catchment area. This change in visual sense can be positive. This is because the whole landscape of the region does not offer an impressive structure. There will be a reduction in the number of plants due to plants’ being under the water. However, this reduction will be in minimum level because of the small catchment area. Planting operations will be done in

Page 90: armahes power generation co. muratli weir, hepp & concrete ...

Armahes Power Generation Company Muratli Weir ,HEPP and Concrete Plant Project

77

the areas of power plant building that will be constructed in order to compensate the decreasing vegetation,prevent erosion and create a beter visual impact.

However, it will be difficult to perform the landscape design that especially seen in the river coexistence of different plant species and different habitats and formed a colourful and changeable landscape structure as a result of living together. In the region, moderate erosion is seen and there can be an increase on erosion because of removing vegetation,scraping the top of the soil and slope.

After the construction operations, flat surfaces will be made by creating benches in

the regions that slope is high and landslide is seen and these regions will be planted. This work will both decrease the flow of soil to surface water and increase the economic life of weir. For the success of planting operations that will be made in the erosion areas required warning signs will be placed and fence or vegetable barries will be made in required situations for reducing the entries to the area.

In addition to tree species, seeding operations (before forestration operations) will be

provided for spreading in a short time on the surface and holding the ground in the regions that landslide is seen so much. For the success of seeding , addition precautions( mulchingetc.) will be taken if it is required.

Catchment area will also be able to be used for local people as a promenade area in

the period of establishment. So, catchment area can be interpreted as recreation area with use of hobbies and sports like fishing, having picnic,hiking,bird observation,photography etc. and arrengements about this will be given to this area. In this respect, structural and vegetative landscape projects will be prepared for the new land use.

V.1.17. Determination Of The Distance and The Influences That Will Happen

On Culture and Nature Livings(Traditional Urban Configuration,Nature Values That Should Be Protected) That Are Underground and Aboveground Of The Project,

The topographic structure of existing land has will change because of the operations of excavation, filling, correction,opening roads and improvement during construction of the project. The first step is to clear the land. Then, vegetable land will be removed from soil. This layer should be stored in appropriate places for using this in landscaping as surface cover. Then, required excavation and filling will be made. Final arrengements will be made in accordance with the topography.

There are not mineral and energy resources that have economic value in the Project

area and around. Therefore, it is not expected that project will affect such energy sources.

There are no historic or cultural assets that are negatively affected in project area and around. In case any historical, cultural or archeological asset in encountered during excavation, the excavation work shall be stopped and the Provincial/Municipal Directors of Culture and Information Services shall be immediately informed thereof. No persons are permitted to remove articles or disturb the area: such action is grounds for dismissal or contract cancellation. The construction work will be resumed after inspection and written approval by the authorities.

Quality and Livings In Water Environment As A Result Of Keeping Water In The Weir Structure Transition Structures Belonging To Fish Species That Are Determined For The Project,

Weir projects are not like dam projects because holding water and changing river

regime into standing water regime do not take place in weir projects. Fish passages will be made for continunity of natural life in downstream and not having a negative impact on migrating fish on fountain-downstream and enough water will be left in river bed and required arrengements will be done in the river bed for providing the water height for migrating fish.

According to Article 22 of “Fishery Law” No. 1380 come into force and published

in The Official Gazette dated 22 March,1971 and No.13799 ; There is a statement that “fish passages or elevators that fisheries can pass have to

be made in the facilities like weir or dam that has been built or will be built on rivers and these must be working all the time”. Fish passages will be made in the project and these are working all the time.

It will be obeyed the provisions of Article 8 of “Fishery Regulations”come into force and published in The Offical Gazette dated 10 March,1995 and No. 22223 prepared based on the same law and a suitable grid or cage will be put at the beginning parts of all kinds of channels and arcs.

In addition to this, measures contained in the following articles of “Fishery Law” No.1380 will be taken and guidelines for compliance with the necessary sensitivity and accuracy will be displayed.

Measures to be taken in the dams and artificial lakes

Article 8 – Before giving water to the dam lakes or other artifial lakes that will be established , it should be applied to T.R. Ministry Of Agriculture and Rural Affairs for the determination of measures to be taken in terms of fisheries by those concerned and measures necessiated by the Ministry must be taken.

Measures to protect the fisheries from damage

Article 9 – When inland waters are used for the purposes of irrigation or energy production etc., measures that will protect life, reproduction,maintenance and production of existing fisheries from damage have to be taken by those concerned. These measures consist of what are determined by T.R. Ministry Of Agriculture and Rural Affairs.

V.2.4. Amount of Environmental Water to Be Released from the Weir and Its

Calculation Method

Daily flowrate values of Muratlı Weir are calculated by regarding the daily natural flowrate values recorded in Flow Observation Stations (FOS) numbered 1430 and 1422 (see Figure 16).

* Amount of Reccomended Environmental Water was determined by General Directorate of Nature Protection and Natural Parks of Turkish Ministry of Environment and Forestry

According to the Article 7 of Regulation on Water Use Agreements (published on Official Gazette dated August 18, 2009 and numbered 27323), environmental water to be released must be at least 10 % of annual average flow rate of last 10 years. However, regarding the ecologic requirements of river during the EIA process, the amount of environmental water shall be increased. For this Project, annual average flowrate of last 10 years (1995-2004) is 27,33 m3 /sec and 10 % of annual average flowrate of last 10 years is 2,73 m3 /sec.

The monthly average flow rates are calculated from the long term flowrate values

of Muratli Weir Site. Regarding the average flows, the months are classified as arid and rainy periods and average flow rate values for each period are determined. 10 % of the period average flows are determined. In Turkey, “General Directorate of Nature Protection and National Parks” of “Turkish Ministry of Environment and Forestry” determines whether this environmental water is enough to sustain the natural life at the downstream of the weir. According to their decision, the environmental water to be released will be raised from 2.74 m3/s to 10.2 m3/s in rainy season. In dry season, 10 % of annual average flowrate of last 10 years will remain as it is.

In brief, 10.2 m3/s environmental water will be released from the weir in rainy

season (from 1 April to 31 May) and in dry season (from 1 June to 31 March), 2.74 m3/s will be released.

According to Article 22 of “Fishery Law” numbered 1380 “fish passages or elevators that fisheries can pass have to be constructed in the facilities like weir or dam that has been built or will be built on rivers and these must be in function all the time”. In compliance with this article, fish passages will be constructed within this project. A technical detail of fish passage to be constructed within the project is given in Appendix-13, drawing numbered RG-003. Additional drawing related to the fish passage is given in Figure 17.

Figure 18. Conventional pool pass (longitudinal section and pool structure)3

Principles of Pool Pass Type of Fish Passages The principle of a pool pass consists in dividing up a channel leading from the

headwater to the tailwater by installing cross-walls to form a succession of stepped pools. The discharge is usually passed through openings (orifices) in the cross-walls and the potential energy of the water is dissipated, step-by-step, in the pools (Figure 1). 1

Fish migrate from one pool to the next through openings in the cross-walls that are

situated at the bottom (submerged orifices) or at the top (notches). The migrating fish encounter high flow velocities only during their passage through the cross-walls, while the pools with their low flow velocities offer shelter and opportunities to rest. A rough bottom is a prerequisite to make pool passes negotiable for benthic fauna.1

The pool dimensions must be selected in such a way that the ascending fish have

adequate space to move and that the energy contained in the water is dissipated with low turbulence. On the other hand, the flow velocity must not be reduced to the extent that the pools silt up.

The pool size must be chosen as to suit the behavioral characteristics of the

potential natural fish fauna and should match the size and expected number of migrating fish.

The bottom of the pools must always have a rough surface in order to reduce the

flow velocity in the vicinity of the bottom and make it easier for the benthic fauna and small fish to ascend. A rough surface can be produced by embedding stones closely together into the concrete before it sets.

3 Fish Passes: Design, Dimensions and Monitoring, 2002, Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations in arrangement with Deutscher Verband für Wasserwirtschaft und Kulturbau e.V. (DVWK), Rome.

Page 101: armahes power generation co. muratli weir, hepp & concrete ...

Armahes Power Generation Company Muratli Weir ,HEPP and Concrete Plant Project

88

Conventional pool passes are characterized by vertical cross-walls that stand at right angles to the pool axis. The cross-walls have submerged openings that are arranged in alternating formation at the bottom of the cross-wall through which fish can ascend by swimming into the next pool. The openings reach to the bottom of the pool and allow creating a continuous rough-surfaced bottom when the substrate is put in.

In accordace with Article 8 of “Fishery Regulation” a suitable grid or cage will be

installed at the inlets of all kinds of channels.

The locations of measurement stations for environmental water to be released will be selected by 22nd Regional Directorate of State Hydraulic Works.

V.2.5. Changes That Will Happen As A Result Of Usage Of Source That Water

Will Be Ensured(Erosion,River Hydrology,Life In Water,Coming Of Sediment Etc.),

Erosion Especially in our country , water erosion that reach the large size of the destruction

is the most important one in erosion types. The existing group of soil in the project land shows shortage of land erosion caused and shortage of land and erosion.

The soil that is worn away by erosion is moved to brooks and then moved to dam

reservoirs. The soil moved to reservoir accumulates there and causes the reservoir be full as soon as possible. Soil is kept instead of water in filled reservoir. Reservoir is full thoroughly over time and becomes unavailable. So, this means a great loss of national wealth. Because of severe erosion in our country, life cycle of reservoirs for the purpose of energy production is very short.

The measures given below will be taken to prevent or minimize erosion:

• Structures will not be located on steep slopes (slopes >30°) • In case selection of such slope areas cannot be avoided, structures will be designed

to minimize excavation on slopes • Construction will proceed during dry conditions • Bunds, sedimentation ponds, or other silt trapping devices constructed to avoid

siltation into surface waters For the prevention of water erosion and ensuring long life for the project,measures

that will be taken are given below.

1) Administrative Measures Necessary administrative measures will be tried to be taken in accordence with

Article 11 of T.R. Ministry of Environment and Forest Law on Organization and Duties No. 4856.

Page 102: armahes power generation co. muratli weir, hepp & concrete ...

Armahes Power Generation Company Muratli Weir ,HEPP and Concrete Plant Project

89

2) Cultural Measures

They are the applications that are aimed at stopping the erosion through establishing vegetation or enhancing existing vegetation. Some of these are afforestration,enhanching the cover, germination, planting suitable plants to river beds that do not carry sediments etc.

3) Mechanical Measures a) Measures to be applied on slopes (Terracing,diversion ditch,fence,etc) b) Measures to be taken against gully erosion (Earth levee,bare wall sill, miks sill,

precipitation barrage ,coastal walls,rockfill etc. ) Aquatic Life There is no negative impact on aquatic life thanks to fish passage that will be made in

the project and compensation water that will be left for ensuring sustainability of ecological life.

V.2.6. Other Usage Types and The Effects Belonging to Resource If Available, (Projects That Takes Place In The Foundation Of The Project,Water Channels,Dams etc.),Taking Into Account Of The Structures In Life Of Water Calculation

There are Kılıçkaya and Çamlıgöze Dams in the downstream of the Project. There

are not water channels and barrages. V.2.7. Influences That Will Be Able To Happen On Underground and

Aboveground Water Sources,

Kelkit Brook is the most important surface water on the Project. For the purpose of ensuring the construction to be done in dry areas , the water that comes by the cofferdam that will be established in the fountain will be transferred to diversion tunnel. The construction of derivation tunnel will be begun in the periods that the water is minimum. Thanks to derivation tunnel, the constructions of weir ,water intake structure and full penstock will be begun in dry land. As a result of these operations, there is not any change in the water quality of brook.

In addition, as a result of geological and geotechnical survey work ,the project is

not expected to have a negative impact on groundwater. Domestic wastewater originating from personnel that will work in the construction

and operation phase of the project will be stored in watertight cesspools and when they are full, it will be vacuumed by vacuum truck and moved out of basin in accordance with the provisions of Water Pollution Control Regulations and will be removed.

The wastewater that will occur during tunnel excavations will be removed in

accordance with the provisions of WPCR. During the cleaning operations of gravel passage, it will be obeyed the provisions of WPCR.

V.2.8. Where and How The House and Other Technique/Social Underwork Needs Of The Personnel That Will Work During The Establishment Of The Project and People Related to This Personnel Will Be Ensured,

During operation of the facility , it is planned to work shifts total of 15 people in the areas of maintenance , security ,control and the other areas. This personnel will be the people living in the region. Accomodation for all operational staff will be constructed to the nearest settlement. For this purpose, an administration building that has director office, assistant office, the rooms of technician, personnel and driver ,meeting room ,tea quarry,warehouse, security counters, telephone parts will be established. Technical and security personnel that will work shifts will be selected from nearest settlements and will be left home with services at shift change.

There will be a first aid room in the power plant building for the first aid need of the

personnel. For the inspection of health conditions of the personnel and health servises like emergency treatment , it will be provided from health care centers and/ or state hospitals located in the County Center Of Çamoluk.

In winter months , air conditioners will be used in the heating process of buildings

like energy units where the personnel is, administrative and social facilities, guard shacks etc. and electric heaters will be used in cases where not enough.

V.2.9. Detailing About The Process Of Refining Association Characteristic That

Will Be Apllied For Refining The Waste Water That Will Be After Using The Water For The Purposes Of Drinking and Using In Administrative and Social Units, Waste Water That Are Refined Will Be Given To Which Receiver Environments,How Much and How,

During the operational phase, 15 people are thought to be worked. Based on assumption that per capita daily water requirements in the operation phase is maximum 150 liters , it is assumed that daily domestic water requirements will be 2,25 m3. This water will be provided from existing city water near Cevizli Neighborhood and it will be checked and provided the compliance with the specified qualifications of “Regulation Concerning Water Intended For Human Consumption” come into force and published in The Offical Gazette dated 17 February ,2005 and No. 25730.

Assuming that the entire water that workers used in the operational phase will be

turned into domestic wastewater, the wastewater amount that will occur per day will be 2,25 m3. The wastewater that will occur in the operational phase will be stored in watertight cesspools that will be built in accordance with the provisions of Regulations About Pits That Will Be Used In Impossible Places Of Cesspit Channel Construction” come into force and published in The Official Gazette dated 13 March ,1971 and No. 13783 and when they are full, they will be vacuumed by vacuum truck and will be removed in accordance with the provisions of WPCR.

V.2.10. Solid Waste Amounts and Features That Will Be Formed From House ,Social and Administrative Associations, Where and How These Wastes Will Be Moved or For Which Purposes and How They Will Be Reappraised,

The solid waste that will occur in the operational phase in the project will be

accumulated in the area and will be collected periodically and will be dumped to garbage areas determined by the Municipality of Çamoluk.It is assumed that there will be approximately 20,1 kg of solid waste (15 people × 1,34 kg/person.day) .The solid waste that will occur in the operational phase will be removed in accordance with the provisions of “Solid Waste Control Regulation” come into force and published in The Official Gazette dated 14 March , 1991 and No. 20814.

V.2.11. The Sources Of Noise That Will Happen At The Stage Of Project Unıts’

Establishment and Precautions That Will Be Taken For Its Control,

The most important source of noise during operation of the plant is the mechanical noise caused by rotation around the axis of turbine shaft. In addition, while flowing water in penstock and turbine , there will be noise because of water hitting the walls. The other noise sources in power plant are noise occuring from building air conditioning and as a result of generator creating discrete noise.

Sound power levels of turbines that have technical features in this project will be

around approximately 100 dB4. This equipment in this project will be found in a closed area in the power plant building in an insulated room. Noise conveyance originating from turbines and generators located in power plant building will be in two types.Santral binası içerisinde bulunan türbinler ve jeneratörden kaynaklanacak gürültü iletimi iki türlü olacaktır.

• Noise conveyance through structure • Noise conveyance through sound waves

Isolation in the room will be made three-sided in the ceiling,floor and side walls.

Rock wool as insulation material (150 density)will be used. In addition, for sound isolation special designed sound-deadening doors will be used. Thus ensuring the maximum level of insulation is targeted. As a result of well-isolation , sound pressure can be reduced to approximately 40 dBA5. There is not any noise formation that will occur from project units of HPP project in the operational phase and will reach to sensitive receiver.

Protective equipment will be provided to the personnel that will work in the

operational phase and their use will be provided.Other required measures will be taken in accordance with the provisions of Occupational Health and Safety Regulation and Environmental Noise Assessment and Management Regulation.

For avoiding a negative effect of noise in the environment in the constructional and

operational phase, activities making noise are determined in ENAMR and they will be limited to 07:00-19:00 hours defined as day period. In addition it will be obeyed the principles of the construction ban of T.R. Ministry of Culture and Tourism. During all 4 Information has been obtained from producing company. Voith Siemens Hydroelectric Co.Ltd. 5 All information related to insulation has been provided by IZOCAM Inc.

92

activities related to project , all necessary measures will be taken for keeping the noise at a minimum level. During the constructional and operational phase, it will be obeyed Public Hygiene Law No. 1593 and Labor Law No. 4857 and related to all regulations.

During the operational phase when necessary in cases , it will be obeyed the

provisions of OHSR and protective equipment against noise such as special helmets , headphones or earplugs etc. will be provided to the personnel.

V.2.12. The Description Of The Influences That Will Happen To Forest Areas

and Precautions That Will Be Taken Against These Effects, Fire may be shown among the effects of the project on forest areas. So, during the

activities in the Project ,the uncontrolled burning of any substance will not be permitted. Portable fire extinguishing equipment will be ready and Yangın söndürme amaçlı seyyar ekipmanlar hazır bulundurulacak ve fire alarm system consisting of heat, smoke and fire detectors will be installed. This equipment will be provided in accordence with the provisions of Worker Health and Work Safety Regulation come into force and published in The Official Gazette dated 11 January, 1974 and No. 14765 and necessary routine checks will be done.In addition, personnel will be educated about this subject. Inspite of these measures if fire occurs , it will be interfered to fire immediately and will be notified the nearest fire brigade unit. Except fire, there is no other negative effect on forest lands.

Precautions Against Fire Possibility

In the Field of Activities ,enough fire extinguishing equipment (digger, shovel, axe,

water bucket, fire-tubes etc.) against fire that can occur will be kept. It will be obeyed the provisions of 5th Part 1st Section “Safety Measures To Be TakenAgainst Fire In The Workplace” of Worker Health and Work Safety Regulation published in The Official Gazette dated 11 April, 1974 and No. 14765 . Facility personnel will be educated fort he effects and tasks to be done in case of fire.

In case of fire ,the other nearby institutions will be informed. After noticing the fire

and alarming , immediate elimination of the problem will be tried by benefitting from the fire-figthing resources that are kept ready in specific locations and matters below shall be fulfilled.

• When the fire is noticed, it will be informed to primarily nearby people,personnel working in the building and then those concerned.

• It will be informed to the nearest security and fire brigade units. • The environmental safety will be provided by emergency responce teams. • Extinguishing teams will interfere immediately to the fire. • In liquefied gas and electrically induced fires, flammable material resouces near fire

will be isolated immediately. • “Saving lives” will be the first job in fire. In such cases, endangering people

themselves and someone else’s life with unnecessary movements will be prevented. • The fire will be tried to be extinguished with the help of nearest appropriate fire

extinguisher equipment. • Against the effects of the burning and choking smoke, mouth and nose will be

closed with wet cloth.

Page 106: armahes power generation co. muratli weir, hepp & concrete ...

Armahes Power Generation Company Muratli Weir ,HEPP and Concrete Plant Project

93

• While extinguishing the fire, it will never be caused destruction and breaking. • Sufficient number of elements and foamy fire extinguishers will be ready to be

used at any time. Fire brigade vehicle should be in the structure of static electricity conductive and grounded.

• Emergency response teams in charge of extinguishing fire will be in touch with the local fire department.

• Ambulance will go to each fire place.

Against a possible fire hazard, the following fire fighting systems will be ready and will be used.

• Gas Tubes (Extinguishing gases that will be used spraying ) • Smoke Detector (at the exit of smoke,to transmit automatically to the control panel) • Flame Detector (on fire, to transmit automatically to the control panel) • Gas Detector (In the first stage, when leakage and the gas density increases in the

environment will alarm and in the second stage fans will work automatically,to receive the system in secure by reducing the gas concentration in the environment)

V.2.13. Other Features There are no other issues to be examined in this section. V.3. Project’s Influences On Socio-Economic Environment The general problems of village social structure in our country are; rapid population

growth,property status of village land,being unable to do agriculture and livestock activities because of hilly areas and limited arable and pasture lands,hidden unemployment,rural-urban migration due to health and education causes.

One of the most important external factors affecting the social structure is forced

migration and resettlement applications. These applications are revealed very important social,economic and cultural events at the same time. In here the dimension of the article related to human should be evaluated primarily.

In this context, Muratlı Weir and HPP Project is expected to have a positive impact

on the socio-economic environment. V.3.1. Income Increases That Are Waited For Performing With The

Project;Employment Opportunities That Will Be Created; Population Movements,Emigration,Education,Health, Culture,Other Social and Technique Infrastructure Services and Changes In Conditions That Are Benefited From These Services Etc,

Muratlı Weir and HPP Project will create opportunities for economic growth

potential for local and regional community. However, on community services and infrastructure it will be able to cause some temporary installations.

Page 107: armahes power generation co. muratli weir, hepp & concrete ...

Armahes Power Generation Company Muratli Weir ,HEPP and Concrete Plant Project

94

Employment growth in aregion generally is regarded as a positive influence.Increasing household expenditures due to salaries will create new local job opportunities. In summary, the construction and operational activities of the proposed project are expected to provide economical advantages to working area directly or indirectly.

Constuction phase is foreseen to be approximately 24 months. The personnel that

will work will be provided from the region within the bounds of opportunities. In addition to wages, construction business services, renting building and equipment among other direct income sources will be done. In addition, gasoline and diesel required for equipment such as truck,construction machinery that will be used during construction will be provided from fuel stations in the region.All meals and accomodation expenses during construction and operation within the project will be provided and will be conributed to the local economy.

Personnel that are thought to work in the operational phase will have been

continuously employed. During the entire construction site requirements will be met with local means and this will activate food,clothing,fuel,local transport and service sectors with the general commerce life in the region.

Population Movements,Migrations Expropriation price is taken as a seperate item in the project costs. Resettlement

under the project does not require in any points.

Education,Health, Culture,Other Social and Technique Infrastructure Services and Changes In Conditions That Are Benefited From These Services

In general, development projects may cause negative effects on social services and

infrastructure by creating a demand on the capacity of existing services. On the other hand, such projects can also generate positive effects in increasing capacity of services because of providing additional funds that will be able to be used. Within the project,the technical personnel that will come from outside of the region are expected to leave the region after the project. In addition , the major needs of construction workers will be provided in the construction area and camps.And the contact between workers and local people will be kept in the lowest level.

In terms of education,cultural structure,health services,communication and water

supply, it will not create a negative impact on existing social and technical infrastructure of the counties in the region.

V.3.2. The Analysis Of Environmental Benefit-Cost Hydroelectric energy sources is located in the most important place in the renewable

energy sources of our country. In 2007 Turkey’s total electricity installed capacity is 40.835 MW. Thermal plants have 27.294 MW, hydroelectric plants have 13.394,9 MW and wind power plants have 146,25 MW of this installed capacity. If the new investments are not made and the problems of sector are not solved in the following years, electric

95

deficit will increase exponentially and this deficit will reach to 25 billion kWhour in 2011, 45,5 billion kWhour in 2012 and 144,7 billion kWhour in 2016 6.

35% of our country’s potential hydroelectric power supply is in operation,8% of this

is under construction and the rest of 57% is still at the level of project and is waiting to be developed. Planned to be established on Kelkit Brook ,the biggest benefit of Muratlı Weir and HPP Project is its contribution to energy production of the country. With actualising of the project , energy that will be produced will provide the evaluation of hydroelectric potential in Kelkit Basin and will serve all of Turkey as part of interconnected system. Taking into account these considerations , the main benefits and costs considered in Benefit/Cost analysis of the Project are given in Table 55.

Part VI : Influences That Will Happen and Go On After Closing Down The Establishment Activity and Precautions That Will Be Taken Against These Effects

Generally ,in all countries , HPP projects are designed as permanent business

running without interruption. The duration of project’s lisence is 49 years. However, the life of hydrolic structures is much longer. The life of electromechanical equipment (turbines,generators,unit control systems,switchgear field equipment etc.) is designed as 35 years. If the maintenance and repair of electromechanical equipment is done regularly and is renewed in necessary cases, proposed plant may serve many years. The environmental effects that may occur in the event of termination of activities are explained in the following parts.

VI.1. Land Reclamation

The economic life of hydroelectric power plants depends on the life of their concrete

structures.With maintenance or renewal of the concrete structures ( rehabilitation of body structure and water intake structure, renewal of callboys, the maintenance of settling ditchs and renewal of them if necessary), the plant business continues for many years depending on hydrological conditions. With the renewal of electromechanical equipment (replacement of turbines, cavitation care of turbine blades, wing settings and sealing system revision,renewal of generator windings,revision control systems, etc.), hydroelectric power plants can produce energy efficiently for many years. At the end of 49 years business period, if the closing of establishment comes to the fore due to conditions that may arise,the water coming from fountain will be transferred to downstream with the help of gravel passage and the other structures and river will be made available to the natural flow. When land reclamation is required, field leveling ,forming and terracing operations will be done. The vegetation of the region has the capacity of renewing itself rapidly because of heavy rain.

Moreover, during land reclamation work , surface drainage will be checked by

opening drainage channels and ditches where necessary to prevent the accumulation of the runoff that may occur with rainfall in the Field of Project.

VI.2. Land Reclamation That Will Be Made In Project’s Area and Rock Crusher Association and Advertisement Studies

The information about the land reclamation work that will be done after the closure of project into operation will be given in the above section.

Although the duration of the project’s license is 49 years, the life of hydraulic structures is much longer. If the maintenance and repair of electromechanical equipment is made regularly and is renewed in necessary cases, proposed plant may serve many years.However, at the end of 49 years business period, if the closing of establishment comes to the fore due to conditions that may arise, a reklamation work will be done before closing down taking into account the circumstances of that time.

VI.3. The Influences Of Existing Water Sources,

As described in Part VI.1, the closure of the business technically depends on unable to produce energy efficiently from the facility. At the end of business period, if the closing of establishment comes to the fore due to conditions that may arise,the water coming from fountain will be transferred to downstream with the help of gravel passage and the other structures and river will be available to the natural flow. The water level in the body of downstream will rise to old position of the river bed. In this case the river’s natural flow will not be changed. There will be no difference between downstream-foundation in terms of quality ana quantity of river water.

Part VII : Alternatives Of The Project (In This Section, Site Selection,Technology, Measures To Be Taken, Comparison Of Alternatives and Preferences Ranking Will Be Determined.)

Site Selection

The following technical, logistical and environmental factors are taken into

consideration in determination of the site planned for Muratlı Weir and HPP Project facilities.

• Land use value • Being no large-scale settlement that will create great social impact in the basin • Creating minimum impact on aggricultural and settlement lands that are scarce and

lowering of the cost of expropriation because of being steep and unsuitable of land in the region

• Being no protected areas in the Project Field according to legistation • Geological structure of the Project Field • The potential fall of Kelkit Brook • Rainfall-flow relationship of Kelkit Brook and the features of meteorological-

hydrological Alternative Technologies For Electricity Generation

When compared with natural gas,nuclear and coal-fueled power plants,

hydroelectric power plants have got important advantages like being renewable resources and puant work. Because they are quickly engaged in peak hours or they can quickly exit the circuit when there is a reduction in demand, hydroelectric power plants are the most suitable power plants for being met “Peak Demand”. When compared with the environmental effects of power plants using fossil fuel, the effects of hydroelectric power plants are the levels that can be ignored.

Environmental awareness has emerged in the world-wide and it is understood that environmental degradation has begun to create serious threats on living things.So ,especially important steps have been taken in the international arena. In 1988, “Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)”established with the support of United Nations Evironment Program and World Meteorological Organization is the first step of the process started. This panel is for the purpose of evaluation of scientific,technical and socio-economic information related to understanding of climate change risk of human origin. Panel published three large-scale evaluation report in 1990, 1996 and 2001. In addition to these evaluation reports, it also prepares special reports and does technical studies. All these studies done by Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change are used as loadstars about the negotiations of international politics and climate change. (Yrd. Doç. Dr. E. KARAKAYA, Ar.Gör. M. ÖZÇAĞ “Assessment of the Kyoto Protocol in terms of Turkey”).

It is understood that global warming will have very serious consequences in the future and this warming is largely a result of mankinds’ own activities. So , governments feel the need to act about immediate measures to be taken.

In this context, international negotiations have been started under the auspices of the United Nations and an important step was taken with the 1992 Rio Summit. (Yrd. Doç. Dr. E. KARAKAYA, Ar.Gör. M. ÖZÇAĞ “Assessment of the Kyoto Protocol in terms of Turkey”, 2003).

In June 1992, in Rio de Janeiro, “Framework Convention on Climate Change

UNFCCC)” was opened for signature in the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development as a result of these efforts. With Rio Convention that entered into force in March 1994, all parties were given common responsibilities fort he reduction of greenhouse gas emissions of human origin by adopting the “common but differentiated responsibilities” and taking into account national and regional differences. For UNFCCC, approximately 189 countries have participated so far. The ultimate aim of the Convention is “to stop the accumulation of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere at a level to prevent dangerous effects of people on the climate system.”Kyoto Protocol signed in United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change provides to reduce the oscillations of carbon dioxide and five ather gases that cause gren house effect or increase rights through trade secretion. Taking into account that the convention is inadequate to keep the greenhouse gas emmissions at the level of 1990 , developed countries with Kyoto Protocol promised lowering their greenhouse gas emissions at least 5 percent below of the level of 1990 in the period of 2008-2012. (N. KILIÇ, “Kyoto Protokol”, AR-GE Bulletin,Izmır Chamber of Commerce).

To reduce carbon dioxide emissions(CO2);

• Encouraging the use of renewable energy sources, • Making work towards providing productivity increase and savings in energy use

are important. (N. KILIÇ, “Kyoto Protokol”, AR-GE Bulletin,Izmır Chamber of Commerce).

Turkey participated to Protokol by signing Kyoto Protokol in 5 February 2009.

Turkey’s responsibility in the process towthe end of 2009 is expected to become clear exactly. In addition to this, also our country should reduce the green gas emissions in the coming years.

Facility planned to be established has great significance in terms of being able to fulfill the commitments in the process that is in front of Turkey because of both using renewable energy and not revealing greenhouse gas emissions in the operation phase.

According to data from the year 2006, the calculated emission factor for Turkey is 0,65 tons CO2/MWh. (Voluntary Emission Reduction (VER) Project Project Idea Note (Draft), Rotor Power Generation Inc. , Osmaniye Wind Farm Project 135 MW, Turkey).

Project’s annual energy production that is planned is 37.70 MW, and total installed capacity is 130.01 GWh. In the light of these data, total 84.500 tons CO2 reduction per year will be provided with the planned Project. (0,65 tons CO2/MWh * 130.010 MWh ≈ 84.500 tons CO2).

According to data of TSI , Turkey’s equivalent amount of CO2 emissions in 2006 is 331,8 million tons, 78% of this is the energy source. (TSI Newsletter, No: 106, June 2008). Because planned Project is the renewal source and environmentally friendly, it will contribute to the reduction of greenhouse gas emission.

Inaction Alternative (Zero Alternative)

Any investment can have many alternavies as site selection and technology. All of these alternatives are different investment options developed for the realization of the project. Above all, the project’s not being realized can be seen as an alternative. The main aim of this type of studies named as inaction alternative and mainly aim not to do the project is to evaluate benefits and costs in the status of project’s not being realized.(in other words,in existing conditions) Typically, this type of quantitative evaluation is difficult to navigate, the situations that the project’s being realized or not being realized may cause are presented under the alternative scenarios to decision makers in such studies.

Part VIII: Monitoring Programs

VIII.1. Recommended Monitoring Program For Construction Activities, Establishment Of The Activities , Recommended Monitoring Program For After Establishment, Emergency Response Plan,

General information on monitoring to be followed during the construction and operation phases are given below. Details of monitoring plan is given in Environmental Management and Monitoring Plan of this project.

Recommended Monitoring Program For Construction Phase

Within Muratlı Weir HEPP Project and construction phase, issues listed below will be considered generally.

• The execution of construction in accordance with contract plan and specifications, • The examination of the construction quality adequacy and keeping any records

related to construction properly, • In implementation phase, the execution of the construction in accordance with

prepared project documents and drawings, • Performing the legistation requirements of job and worker safety .

Besides, monitoring should be made by legistation in force in order to reduce the construction’s impacts on environment during construction. The monitoring area in the operational phase is the areas under construction , contractor’s site, the stream environment between weir and power plant location , rehabilitation areas of construction area.

Monitoring program will include the following points.

• The disposal of domestic solid waste that occurs during construction • The disposal of domestic liquid waste that occurs during construction • The examination of Iyidere water that may be affected from construction activities

periodically(once every three months) in terms of required water parameters turbidity at first (pH, TSS, turbidity, BOD, COD, total nitrogen and total phosphorus) by taking water samples from the downstream of project land.

• The periodic control of dust emissions and noise that will result from construction (in nearest settlement,once every three months)

• The control of waste that results from service and maintenance of construction machineries

• The control of excavation waste • The adjustment of corrupted landscape in the construction phase (completion of

construction activiities)

Recommended Monitoring Program For Operation Phase

According to Agreement Concerning Water Use Rights and Mangement Principles investor firm will provide the continuation of natural life of in downstream of river bed and will leave the water that will meet the water rights in this part.

Page 115: armahes power generation co. muratli weir, hepp & concrete ...

Armahes Power Generation Company Muratli Weir ,HEPP and Concrete Plant Project

102

The seasonal measurements of pH, TSS, turbidity, BOD, COD, total nitrogen and total phosphorus in river environment will be sufficient in monitoring program for construction stage. In the operational phase , also in nearest settlement, the noise measurement will me done over three-month periods.

The collection of solid waste and throwing to municipal waste field are also among

other issues that must be checked.

Emergency Response Plan An emergency response plan for construction stage containing information such as

the list of institutions that will be informed in case of emergency, the locations of security-related equipment and emergency escape routes will be prepared and used in operational phase if necessary. The most important aim of emergency response plans is to identify what to do in an emergency. Natural disasters, accidents, errors arising from the project or sudden floods within the project are considered as “emergency situation”. In addition to this, corrective interventions are needed to values that are in environmental parameters such as vibration and noise monitoring to be done and values that exceed the acceptable limits. ERP will be prepared according to specifications that are mentioned below.

• In an emergency , necessary tools and equipment will be identified for immediate

intervention and they will be kept in a seperate location. In this kind of tools and equipment, there will be diggers and shovels, face masks, protective eyewear, gloves, various pumps, electric motors that do not give rise to explosion, radios and similar equipment.It will be planned in advance how heavy construction machineries such as bucket, front loaders and dozers will intervene in any emergency and the parking places of heavy construction machineries will be selected bt taking into consideration these matters.

• ERPs will also include the list of emergency response teams, the locations of safety equipment andescape routes and their procedures.

• ERP will be checked regularly and periodic inspection and maintenance of all equipment will be made on a regular basis.Key personnel will be trained in this. Within the monitoring program related to security of projectt facilities , ERP’s applicability will be checked.

VIII.2. In Case of Being Given Affirmative Certificate Of EIA ,Program That

Is About Performing The Points That Take Place In The Second Paragraph Of “Obligations Of Associatons and Establishments That Get Competence Certificate” Title In Competence Notification

There is a statement in the second paragraph of Article 9 of “Competence

EARTHQUAKE RISK ANALYSIS STUDY

Page 146: armahes power generation co. muratli weir, hepp & concrete ...

Earthquake Risk Analysis Metodology The buildings such as factories, power plants, etc. constructed on active active seismic belts must be resistant to earthquakes. Therefore, the precautions stipulated in relevant regulations must be taken during the preparation (architectural design, static, concrete strength and equipping) and construction phases. The forces acting on the building during an earthquake depend on the dynamic characteristics and weight of the building as well as the local characteristics of the ground. Therefore earthquake resistant building projects must be prepared and the detils of the Project shall be applied carefully. Risk analyses studies determine the level of the seismic activity potential of the site where engineering structures such as power plant building, dam body and factory is going to be constructed. The results of these studies constitute a basis for earthquake resistant Project design. Probabilistic methods as well as the deterministic methods are applied in earthquake risk analyses. The probabilistic methods are advantageous over the deterministic methods. These advantages are; • All earthquake magnitutes that are above a certain value are included in calculations. • The impact of all sources at different distances are considered. • This method shall be utilized to compare the risks of two alternative sites and to select appropriate design parameters. At the beginning of the risk analyses study conducted in Muratlı Weir and HEPP project site seismologic data was evaluated in order to determine the maximum acceleration that is expected to be effective in parent rock in the future. Information on the earthquakes having a magnitute greater than 4 (M≥ 4) that occured between 1900 and 2005 at the project site was collect from the national and international databses such as General Directorate of Disaster Affairs Earthquake Research Department, Bogazici University Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute, ISC (International Seismology Center), USGS (United States Geological Survey), NEIC (National Earthquake Information Center). At the second step of risk analyses study, seismologic and techtonic data was correlated and Seismotechtonic Map of teh region was prepared. Two earthquake sources are determined on the map which are indicated as A-1 (areal source) and L-1 (line source). The software utilized for risk assessment is based on Poisson probabilistic theory. This software calculated the acceleration-risk values of both areal and line source by using coordinates of Muratlı Weir and HEPP project site and attenuation relationship coefficients. These calculated values are given in Table-1. Fort he earthquake risk analyses, the following parameters has to be otained. a) Seismic Data - Collection of Historical and Instrumental Earthquake Data - Determination of epicenter coordinates, magnitute, intensity

Page 147: armahes power generation co. muratli weir, hepp & concrete ...

- Epicenter distribution map - Isoseismic map - Acceleration coefficients b) geologic and tectonic data - selection of tectonic zone - detection of active faults and shear zone - measurement of crest movement - satellite images and aeiral photo - measurement of fault offset c) Seismotectonic Map - Determination of earthquake source - earthquake parameters of point, line and areal sources d) calculation of probabilistic and deterministic risk - determination of probabilistic model (Poisson, Gumbel, Markov models) - determination of the relationship between magnitude and frequency of earthquake sources - attenuation relationship of ground acceleration - preparation of acceleration risk tables Theoretical Principles In order to determine the future seismic activities, the following Poission probabilistic model shall be applied. Pn(t) =e-λt(t)n / n! Pn(t) = probability of occurance of n earthquake in a time period of t n = number of earthquake λ= number of earthquakes ocuuring in unit number of time Gutenberg-Richter (1956) developed a method that determines the magnitute of future earthquakes depending on the ancient earthquakes. The following formula defines the relationship between the magnitute and the cummulative number of earthquakes. log N(m)= α + β M α,β= regression coefficients M=magnitude N=cummulative number of earthquakes This relation cen be either linear or binary linear. Loge N1(M) = α1 + ß1M M < M0 Loge N2 (M) = α2 + ß2 M M > M0 Considering the length and area of the sources and observation periods, N (M) = N (m) / L.T ; α'= α - Loge(L.T) Line Source N (M) = N (m)/ A.T ; α'= α - Loge(A.T) Making areal source conversion the following normalized relations can be found. Loge N1(M) = α'1 + ß1M

Page 148: armahes power generation co. muratli weir, hepp & concrete ...

Loge N2(M) = α'2 + ß2 M N (M) = Cummulative number of earthquakes having magnitude greater than M, N1 (M) = N (M) normalized cummulative number of earthquakes, M0 = magnitude of most intensive earthquake determined at source M1 = magnitude of most intensive earthquake expected at the source L = length of line source (km) A = area of areal source (km2) T = Observation period (year) α , ß = Regression coefficients α' = regression coefficient calculated by normalizing α The erthquake risk of Muratlı Weir and HEPP project site was calculated by the formulas given above. In addition, a seismotectonic map was prepared for line source L-1 and areal source A-1 and the parameters given in Table 1 was obtained from the map. The results of earthquake risk analyses are highly dependent on these parameters. Areal Source

In risk analyses studies of Muratlı Weir and HEPP project site, mainly two earthquake sources (areal source and line source) are determined at the seismotectonic map. In Table-1, parameters related with these two sources are given and acceleration-risk values of these sources are calculated. A-1 AREAL SOURCE The center of this areal earthquake source is between Narman and Senkaya districts of Erzurum Province and it is a circular source with abradius of 60 km. It is nearly 27 km below the ground level. The magnitute of strongest earthquake originated from this source is M0=6.8 and the magninute of strongest earthquake that is expected to be originated from this source at the future is M1=7.5. L-1 LINE SOURCE This line earthquake source begins on the North Anatolia Fault Zone between Vezirköprü-Havza (Samsun) and Varto (Muş) and extens through east direction up to Bulanık (Muş). Its length is 610 km. The magnitute of strongest earthquake originated from this source is M0=7.9 and the magninute of strongest earthquake that is expected to be originated from this source at the future is M1=8.5. It is nearly 30 km below the ground level so is exist at the deeper than the areal source. Attenuation Relationship and Deterministic Assessment One of the most significant factor in earthquake risk analyses is the selection of attenuation relationship that defines the correlation of magnitute (M), hypocenter distance (R) and

Page 149: armahes power generation co. muratli weir, hepp & concrete ...

maximum ground acceleration (A). In calculation of earthquake risk of Muratlı Weir and HEPP project site, Estava attenuation relationship is used. This relationship is widely used in probabilistic methods. Moreover, for deterministic methods, attenuation relationships proposed by some researchers were applied and maximum accelerations generated by the strong earthquakes at the region were calculated directly (Table-2) .

The first earthquake used in deterministic method is Erzincan earthquake occured in 1939 wthi the magnitute of M=7.9. the second earthquake included in deterministic calculations is 1992 Erzincan-Uzumlu earthquake whose epicenter is 60 km from the project site. According to the results of calculations the highest ground acceleration generated in Muratlı Weir and HEPP project site is 373 cm/s2. this value is below the ones calculated from probabilistic method. Design Earthquake MDE, OBE and MCE definitions of ICOLD are given below. Maximum Design Earthquake (MDE) : It is the earthquake selected for design or evaluation of the structure.It will produce maximum level of ground motion for which the dam should be designed. It is often accepted as loading which has a 10% chance of being exceeded in a 50 year period and an annual probability of exceedence of 1 in 475 years. It will be required that at least that the impounding capacity of the dam be maintained when subjected to that seismic load. If any hazard on the dam creates a serious social risk than MDE will be equal to MCE given below. Operating Basis Earthquake (OBE) : OBE will produce a evel of ground motion which will cause only minor and acceptable damage at the damsite. The dam, appurtenant structures and equipment should remain functional and damage from the occurance of earthquake shaking not exceeding the OBE should be easily repairable. In other words, OBE will not be exceeded in 100 year period with %50 probability. Return period of such movement is 144 year. Maximum Credible Earthquake (MCE) : The MCE is defined as the largest earthquake which can be expected to occur on a fault in the current tectonic regime. The probability of occurance is not significant since it varies from 100 year to 10.000 year.

Results and Reccomendations Earthquake potential of Muratlı Weir and HEPP project site is determined by probabilistic methods. The results are compared with the findings of deterministic methods. According to Turkish Earthquake Map prepared by T.C. Ministry of Public Works and Settlement, project site remains at 1. Degree Earthquake Zone which defines tha area that has highest earthquake risk. For the determination of earthquake risk of Muratlı Weir and HEPP project site by using probabilistic methods, seismotectonic maps were prepared and two earthquake sources (L-1 line source and A-1 areal source) were included in this map. Muratlı Weir and HEPP project site is located on L-1 line source. L-1 line source is located on Northern Anatolia Fault. This source model was applied for probabilistic determination of earthquake potential of Muratlı Weir and HEPP project site by considering the earthquakes with magnitute greater than 4 that was ocuured beween 1900 and 2003. Earthquake resorces are determined and utilized by the software working based on Poisson probabilistic theory and finally acceeration-risk values are calculated for Muratlı Weir and HEPP project site. Acceleration-risk values calculated for different economic life and exceedence probability are given in Table-1. According to this table, for 50 year economic life, the maximum acceleration is a=876.0 cm/s2 for 5% exceedence probability. At the same table, the maximum acceleration is calculated as a=864. cm/s2 (a=0.88 g) for 10% exceedence in 100 year period. The software uses the attenuation relationship defined by Estava for hard rock conditions. This is suitable for Muratlı Weir and HEPP project site. A wide proability range was considered for easier selection. In deterministic methods, independent of probabilistic methods, calculations are made by using the ground accelerations measured in Muratlı Weir and HEPP project site due to the ancient earthquakes together with attenuation relationship coefficients submitted by some researchers. Highest acceleration value calculated bby deterministic methods is a=373 cm/s2. this value is below the one calculated by probabilistic methods. Finally as a result of the calcualtions and evaluations given above, the following results are obtained for Muratlı Weir and HEPP project site; MDE value: 666 cm/sn2 (0.67 g.) for peak ground acceleration OBEvalue: 339 cm/sn2 (0.34 g.) for peak ground acceleration MCE value: Richter Magnitute M=8.5 of the earthquake shall be considered for this prlect.

REGIONAL FLORA INVENTORY

The flora inventory is prepared in the light of the site surveys and literature studies. The reference named “Flora of Turkey and the East Aegean Islands, Volume 1-10, 1965-1988” of P. H. Davis is utilized in the determination of species. This book is also the reference for the authors of the taxa stated in the list. The regional flora list is prepared in alphabetic order. The habitat, flora zone, endemism and relative abundance of species as well as risk classes existing in Red Data Book of Turkey are mentioned in the list. The scale and abbreviations stated in the list are defined below. The floral inventory list of Project Site and its vicinity is presented in Table 1. This table displays common name, distribuion over Turkey, phytogeographic origin and and habitat of the specie as well as scientific names. Abbreviations and symbols used in Table 1 is as follows: Habitat 1 – Agricultural reas 2 – Dry grasslands, road sides, cleared areas

3 – Forests 4 – Bushes 5 – Wetlands Distriution in Turkey N : North S : South E : East W : West C : Center Whole Turkey Relative Abundance Classes The numbers given indicate the frequency of occurence of species and based on observation.

1 – Very rare 2 – Rare 3 – Medium degree abundant 4 – Abundant 5 – Very abundant

Endemism (End.) (+) sign indicates that species is endemic. Risk Classes according to IUCN (2009.1)

Page 175: armahes power generation co. muratli weir, hepp & concrete ...

Red Data Book of Turkey has been classified the endemic and rare species according to Red List Categories published by IUCN in 1994. Explanation of these caterories are given below:

EW : “Extinct in the wild” A taxon is Extinct in the wild when it is known only to survive in

cultivation, in captivity or as a naturalised population (or populations) well outside the past range.

CR : “Critically Endangered” A taxon is Critically Endangered when it is facing an extremely high risk of extinction in the wild in the immediate future.

EN : “Endangered” A taxon is Endangered when it is not Critically Endangered but is facing a very high risk of extinction in the wild in the near future.

VU : “Vulnerable” A taxon is vulnerable when it is not critically endangered. LR : “Lower risk” A taxon is Lower Risk when it has been evaluated, does not satisfy

the criteria for any of the categories Critically Endangered, Endangered or Vulnerable. Taxa included in the Lower Risk category can be separated into two subcategories:

(cd) :”Conservation Dependent” Taxa which are the focus of a continuing taxon-

or habitat-specific conservation program targeted towards the taxon in question, the cessation of which would result in the taxon qualifying for one of the threatened categories above within a period of five years.

(nt) :“Near Threatened” Taxa which do not qualify for Conservation Dependent, but which are close to qualifying for Vulnerable.

(lc) :“Least Concern” A taxon is Least Concern when it has been evaluated against the criteria and does not qualify for Critically Endangered, Endangered, Vulnerable or Near Threatened.

CITES : Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and

Flora

Appendix I: It includes species threatened with extinction. Trade in specimens of these species is permitted only in exceptional circumstances. This may be issued only if the specimen is not to be used for primarily commercial purposes and if the import will be for purposes that are not detrimental to the survival of the species. An export permit or re-export certificate issued by the Management Authority of the State of export or re-export is also required. Appendix II: It includes species not necessarily threatened with extinction, but in which trade must be controlled in order to avoid utilization incompatible with their survival. An export permit or re-export certificate issued by the Management Authority of the State of export or re-export is required. An export permit may be issued only if the specimen was legally obtained and if the export will not be detrimental to the survival of the species. A re-export certificate may be issued only if the specimen was imported in accordance with the Convention.

Page 176: armahes power generation co. muratli weir, hepp & concrete ...

In the case of a live animal or plant, it must be prepared and shipped to minimize any risk of injury, damage to health or cruel treatment. No import permit is needed unless required by national law.

REGIONAL FAUNA INVENTORY

The fauna inventory is prepared based on a comprehensive literature review and observations of the local residents as well as the site surveys. Scientific names, habitat, population density, status according to Bern Convention and endemism status of each specie is stated clearly. Faunal inventory includes amphibies as well as other species. Kiziroglu (1993) is used for the birds under risk. IUCN (2006) and Demirsoy (1996) is the are the fererences fauna species. The scale for the risk class areas follows. BERN Convention and Annexes According to the “BERN Convention” (Convention on the Conservation of European Wildlife and Natural Habitats); Appendix II: has the list of species, protection of which are obligatory.

CLARIFICATIONS ON THE SUBJECTS DISCUSSED

IN MURATLI HES PROJECT PUBLIC CONSULTATION MEETING

“Public Consultation Meetings” was held in order to ensure public participation to the EIA process ,to inform about the activities, to receive their comments and suggestions on August 11,2009 in Yaylaçayı Village of Gölova District of Sivas Province and on August 12, 2009 in Sarpkaya Village of Çamoluk District of Giresun Province with regard to Muratlı Weir and HEPP Project and in accordance with Article 9 of EIA Regulation.

“Public Consultation Meeting” was called before the preparation of the EIA Report. Therefore, in order to inform the local people about the last situation of the EIA and EMP, the copies of each documents will be disclosed at the construction site, and public will be able to access these documents at anytime they wish. In addition, copies of EIA and EMP will be presented at the offices of Yaylacayi and Sarpkaya Village Heads.

• Temel Düşmez : There is no detailed information given for the project. Are we going to be benefited from the water during the operation of the project?

• Explanation : The start and end elevation points of the Project is determined by the Feasibility Report of Project approved by Public Waterworks Administration (DSİ). The Absolute Projects are prepared after the signing of The Water Usage Agreements in framework of Approved Survey. For the required land of private owners necessary for proper construction of the projects; “Public Benefit Decision” is taken from Energy Market Regulatory Authority under the request of EPDK Expropriation Head Office. The evaluation of the entitled parties and values of the land is achieved by the cases opened in the Local Civil Court of First Instance by the intervention of the Authority lawyers. Construction permission is given to lands which are expropriated under “urgent expropriation decision”. The Interpretation to the public about the expropriation is done in this stage by the court delegation and expert group.

In order to inform about details of the project, the copies of the last versions of the EIA and EMP will be disclosed at the offices of Yaylacayi and Sarpkaya Village Heads and public will be able to access these documents at anytime they wish.

During the operation period of the project, the amount of environmental water necessary to sustain the ecological life is calculated according to Public Waterworks Administration standards and found as 2.73 m3/sec. This amount of water will be released throughout the operation period.

• Salih Anakaya : Are there any risks of radiation or landslide concerning the power plant?

• Explanation : There is no radiation risk as the project is going to be built as hydroelectric power plant. Necessary ground studies are made on the land of construction. The project is designed not to involve any construction on lands having potential to land sliding.

• İsmail ANAKAYA : There is land sliding risk for the whole village. The tunnels are very close to houses and will damage the buildings. Additionally the irrigational agricultural lands will be destructed.

• Explanation : There is no constructed project in the village part under landslide risk. Detailed soil investigation studies were conducted before the final design of the project and the location of the construction sites were determined according to the results of soil investigation studies. It is determined that the area under the landslide risk is situated on the east of the village. Locating any project unit on the areas under landslide risk is avoided. The excavation elevation level of the tunnel is 966 m. On the other hand the average elevation level of the land where the tunnel is going through is 1005 m. Approximately 40 m. ground thickness is present above the tunnel. The nearest residential area is 100 m. away from the tunnel. The excavation of the tunnel will be done by excavators according to the plan. That’s why there will be no damage concerning the buildings during excavation and operation phases of project.

There is only one house which was damaged during the excavation of open channel and it is located at the west side of the village which is far from the area under the landslide risk. The house was weakly constructed and has shallow foundation. During the excavation, cracking was occurred on the walls of the building and it was demolished under the controlled conditions. One new house will be constructed for the damaged house.

• Sabri Düşmez : Our buildings must be under warranty against damage for the period of tunnel construction.

• Explanation : All Risk insurance for account of third parties is made for the whole project. If there is any damage it will be compensated under this insurance. The Insurance Policy is submitted to Development Bank of Turkey.

• Süleyman DARTEPE : There are four houses in the area of the channel and 10-13 thousand TL is paid for each house. He refuses to take money but instead wants the reconstruction of houses.

• Explanation : Expropriation Values are determined by Local Civil Court of First Instance This value can only by taken by entitled person. However, the construction firm has signed contracts with the five entitled people to build

Page 205: armahes power generation co. muratli weir, hepp & concrete ...

3

residents on the area where they want and the contracts are submitted to Development Bank of Turkey.

The locations of the expropriated and damaged houses are shown on the map given in Appendix-1. One new house will be constructed for Fatma Dartepe who is the owner of Expropriated House No.1 and one new house will be construced for Fatma Sabuncu who is the owner of Damaged House. In addition, three new houses will be constructed for Behiye Horuz, the owner of Expropriated House No. 2, since three families are accommodating in existing building. All new houses will be constructed on the areas belonging to the owner of the houses to be replaced. Instead of one, three houses will be contstructed for Horuzs. The location of the new houses will be determined by their owners. The construction activities of the new houses will be initiated on April, 2010.

• Azimet Sabuncu : States that 13 thousand TL valued house does not compensate her grievance. Addition to that means of access will be lost to non-expropriated part of her land.

• Explanation : Expropriation Values are determined by Local Civil Court of First Instance. Although she has paid for expropriation of her land, a contract has been made with her for a construction of a new house. For the means of access; tractor and pedestrian ways will be constructed under the project

• Turunç Yücetepe : She has not been informed although the tunnel is passing under her house.

• Explanation: The tunnel is passing nearly 40 m below the ground level and 100 m away from her house on the horizontal distance. She is informed that construction and operation activities of the tunnel will not create any adverse impact on her house. In addition, any explosive material will not be used for the tunnel construction. Moreover the construction of tunnel has not been started yet..

• Azimet Horus : She has been aggrieved because of expropriation of her house and land due to the project.

• Explanation: As indicated in the map given in Appendix-1, her house is located within the expropriated area (Expropriated House No. 2). Expropriation fee was paid to her. In addition, three new houses will be constructed since three families are accommodating at the existing house.

• Bayram Sabuncu : The village residents are aggrieved and they will not approve the project unless a new residential area is demonstrated.

• Explanation: His house has not been expropriated, only 450 m2 of his land has been expropriated. Total area expropriated for the project is 43.000 m2 which also includes 2 houses. The expropriation fees of each expropriated area were

Page 206: armahes power generation co. muratli weir, hepp & concrete ...

4

determined by the legal experts and court. These expropriation fees were paid to all beneficiaries. In addition, 2 expropriated houses will be replaced by 4 new houses. As seen from this explanation, necessary precautions are taken to compensate the losses of local people. According to us, expropriation process done within this project does not require the replacement of the village.

• Şahin Demirbaş : The village residents are aggrieved because of this project and they will go to court to stop the project. He also wants to learn why their village is chosen for the project

• Explanation : The main reason of concerns of the village residents is expropriation of their land and houses. In order to compensate their losses, the expropriation fees determined by the local experts and court are paid to the beneficiaries and all expropriated houses will be replaced by the new ones.

It is thought that, the village is positively affected from the project by the creation of new employment opportunities by the construction and operation.

Five Hydroelectric Power Plants are planning to be constructed on the stream Kelkit as it is one of the important sources of water. Hydrology, water head and flow rate of Kelkit River are very suitable to set up hydroelectric power plants.

• Caner Yücetepe: They should be informed before the project begins. He wants to learn weather enough irrigation water will be supplied during the operation of the HEPP.

• Explanation: According to the previous EIA Regulation, “EIA is not required” decision was taken from the Provincial Directorate of Environment and Forestry since the installed power of the project is below 50 MW. To be able to get a loan from the World Bank, the EIA Report was prepared and the public consultation meeting was held at the time required by the Turkish and World Bank EIA Regulations.

During the operation period of the project, the amount of environmental water necessary to sustain the ecological life is calculated according to Public Waterworks Administration standards and found as 2.73 m3/sec. This amount of water will be released throughout the operation period.

• İbrahim Kaynar : He requests to be informed about every ecological and environmental impact of the project.

• Explanation : In order to inform the local people about the last versions of the EIA and EMP, the copies of each documents will be disclosed at the construction site. In addition, copies of EIA and EMP will be presented at the offices of Yaylacayi and Sarpkaya Village Heads. Therefore, public will be able to access these documents at anytime they wish.

• Mehmet Horus : He wants to learn the way to pass the tubes for the irrigation of the land above the canal.

• Explanation : Pedestrian and Tractor ways and also Inlets may be used for transport of water.

• Fatma Düşmez : Her land in front of the tunnel is expropriated so she cannot benefit from the rest of her land. She wants to be compensated due to her grievance.

• Explanation: The expropriation is a process concerning the land of the construction area. The excluding land is thought to be used by the owner. But in this case as the land is in front of the tunnel the construction company will compensate this owner’s grievance. TKB has taken a written commitment from the sponsor about compensation of her grievance.
