  • Coastal Cities Environmental Sanitation Project (CCESP) - Phase 2 Nha Trang City Sub-project Component 3 - Solid Waste Management

    INTRODUCTION

    1. BACKGROUND OF THE PROJECT

    Nha Trang City Environmental Sanitation Project is one of the three sub-projects under

    the Coastal Cities Environmental Sanitation Project (including Quy Nhon, Dong Hoi and

    Nha Trang). The Project has been proposed in order to solve the existing serious

    environmental sanitation problems, improve environmental sanitation conditions of the

    cities, improve the local resident's living standards as well as to ensure sustainable

    economic development.

    The Project shall be financed under the World Bank's loan and on the basis of experiences

    from other projects funded by the WB such as environmental sanitation projects in Ho Chi

    Minh and Hai Phong cities.

    The project shall be divided into 2 phases (phase 1: 2006-2011; Phase 2: 2011-2014) and

    include 6 components:

    Component 1: Drainage, Flood Controlling and Wastewater Collection;

    Component 2: Wastewater Treatment Plant;

    Component 3: Solid Waste Management;

    Component 4: Development of Resettlement Areas;

    Component 5: Sanitation Revolving Fund

    Component 6: Capacity Building and Executive Assistance.

    According to the Credit Agreement, the Component 3 shall be implemented in two phase.

    The Phase 1 included:

    Build the Luong Hoa landfill of 6ha areas, which ensure that meet the safely

    deposal of solid waste in Nha Trang City.

    - Rehabilitate the existing landfill and close Ru Ri landfill.

    - Purchasing equipments (dustbins and solid waste pressing cars) to improve the

    effective of solid waste collection in the central areas and new urban areas in the

    north and the south ofNha Trang City.

    So far, Only the purchasing equipments has been completed, and the construction of

    Luong Hoa landfill is in process.

    Implementation of Compo 3, Phase 2 according to the Credit Agreement consists of

    following contracts:

    • Supply of Solid Waste Equipment (NT-3.3)

    EIA, LA VIC Consultant, February 2011 1

  • Coastal Cities Environmental Sanitation Project (CCESP) - Phase 2 Nha Trang City Sub-project Component 3 - Solid Waste Management

    • Development of Luong Hoa Landfill Site (ph2) (NT-3.4)

    • Transfer and Collection Points (NT-3.5)

    However, in its letter dated January 22, 2010 PMU requested the consultant not to

    take into consideration extension of the landfill but to review existing design for phase 1

    with the aim to:

    • Re-evaluate all equipment and installations according to the reduced

    capacity;

    • Improve the design to increase the capacity;

    • Aim to cover increasing costs by design adjustments

    • Develop new drawings and BoQs accordingly.

    In order to complete necessary legal procedures, the Project Owner has collaborated with the consulting unit - Lac Viet Investment, Environmental Technology and Infrastructure Engineering JSC (LAVIC) - to prepare the environmental impact assessment report and the environment management plan in accordance with the regulation on environment protection of the Vietnamese Government and the World Ban1e

    In the framework of this report, the Consultant LACVIC shall evaluate the impacts on environment, social and environment management plan for the implementation of Component 3. The impacts include potential, positive and negative, direct and indirect, long tenn and short tenn. Based on these forecast and assessment, mitigation measures (include management and technical measures) shall be proposed to take full advantage of the positive impacts and minimize the negative impacts on natural and social environment during the project implementation.

    The basic design of transfer points are decribed in figures in Annex.

    1.3.4. Transport leachate from Ru Ri landfill to the Luong Hoa landfill

    - Transmission of leachate via tanker (option I)

    - Transmission of leachate via pump and pipeline (option 2)

    The first option includes the purchase of a tanker. The settling basin would serve as the

    storage and balancing tank. Depending on the size of the tanker app. 4 to 6 trips during

    the day would be required for the estimated leachate quantities.

    Investment cost is lower for the second option.

    Operation cost are considerably lower, taking into account that in option I a driver! operator must be available 7 days a week. Also fuel cost is much lower compared to a

    full size diesel truck.

    EIA, LA VIC Consultant, February 2011 13

  • II

    -

    Coastal Cities Environmental Sanitation Project (CCESP) - Phase 2 Nha Trang City Sub-project Component 3 - Solid Waste Management

    Maintenance cost is also considerably lower and the service easier for a small pump as required.

    For these reasons, it is recommended to follow Option 2.

    Pumping station will be located at the site of the e settling tank and pipes are laid in the

    shoulder of the new access road to Luong Hoa landfill. No additional land is required.

    Option 2 includes:

    Construction of a small pump station (Q= 3.6 cbmlh, H= 15m).

    - Pressure line to the highest point of the access road to LH landfill near the administration building, L=360 m, location in the embankment of the access road (width 1m).

    Power supply cable and data transfer cable (L=360 m) parallel to pressure line.

    Gravity line to the inlet of the leachate treatment Luong Hoa, L= 570m.

    1.3.5. Redesign of Landfill Luong Hoa

    By request from PPC (pMU letter dated 22.01.2010), no expansion of Luong Hoa landfill

    will be implemented, instead revision of existing design Phase 1 will be carried out.

    The design of Luong Hoa landfill Phase 1 has been reviewed by the Consultant. Based

    on the new data of under-construction Luong Hoa landfill, a number of changes have

    been proposed aiming on increasing the capacity, improving the landfill performance,

    adjusting problematic or inappropriate design and gaining more cost efficiency.

    Landfill redesigning is to solve the issues as follows:

    - Re-designing rock excavation in the reasonable volume, technical geometry to reduce the cost of excavation;

    - Re-designing the lining system to avoid using qualitative natural clay required that cannot found in Khanh Hoa province region;

    - Generating possible measures by re-design to compensate the lost volume of landfill capacity caused by reduction of rock excavation.

    - Redesign the leachate collection system to improve the performance of the landfill and leachate treatment efficiency to meet current standard.

    1.3.5.1. Adjustment of Rock Excavation

    • Reducing landfill area at Southern embankment;

    Areas at the Southern embankment, which require massive excavation works, will be excluded from landfill bed and therefore from liner construction. At the South-East comer ofthe landfill a strip of2.700 m2 will be excluded.

    • Construction of steep slopes

    At several locations of the landfill steep slopes up to 1: 1 will be constructed in order to reduce excavation.

    EIA, LA VIC Consultant, February 2011 14

  • II

    II

    Coastal Cities Environmental Sanitation Project (CCESP) - Phase 2 Nha Trang City Sub-project Component 3 - Solid Waste Management

    1.3.5.2. Redesign of liner system

    F or several reasons the liner system need to be adjusted. The natural clay is not available on site and needs to be replaced by geo synthetic material. A geo synthetic clay liner (GCL) is recommended. In steeper areas, the proposed protection and drainage layer (sand, gravel) is not stable. In these areas, the drainage layer will be replaced by drainage textiles. In the newly designed steep rock excavation areas (up to 1:1), the entire liner system will be constructed by mainly geo synthetic components (GCL, drainage textiles, geo textiles).

    1.3.5.3. Improvment of leachate management

    • Leachate collection improvement

    In order to reduce the amount of leachate, the leachate collection shafts (collection pit)

    and transportation pipes will be adjusted. The future concept enables discharging

    unpolluted water directly to the storm water channels. While redesigning the pipe

    system, the incorrect placement of shafts (at the deepest point of the embankment) can

    be corrected. Redesign drawings have already been fmalized. Redesign of pipe

    collection can be served for leachate circulation that can improve the landfill

    performance.

    • Leachate treatment

    The leachate quality measurements at Ru Ri indicate that significant Ammonia concentrations should be expected at Luong Hoa. It is unlikely that the treatment plant

    according to the current design has sufficient capacity for nitrogen removal. An

    additional nitrogen elimination step (stripping) should be added.

    1.3.5.4. Shift and redesign of hazardous waste cell

    According to current design, the hazardous waste cell is unfavorably placed at the municipal solid waste dumping area. This creates adverse operational problems, particularly since the hazardous waste cell is not operating level with the same speed as the adjacent municipal solid waste areas, as a result of reductions of airspace. It is recommended to move the hazardous waste cell to a separate place outside the solid waste site. A 4000 m2 area next to the Northern (slope) road is available and feasible. The flat area allows a leachate free waste storage under installed roof. Thus, the leachate tank including peripheral installations (pumping, pressure pipe) can be cancelled.

    Figure 1-5: Proposal for moving hazardous cell out of landfill pit

    The former hazardous waste cell will be turned into solid waste disposal area providing additional 200.000 m3 airspace.

    1.3.5.5. Redesign Luong Hoa Leachate Treatment Plant

    Redesign of the treatment plant at the landfill is required because the proposed process

    technology acceptable effluent values cannot be reached.

    Design criteria are:

    - use of the already constructed ponds as biological treatment step

    use of technology available and used in Vietnam

    flexibility and ease of operation

    Compared to domestic waste water leachate contains a high concentration of nitrogen mostly in the form of ammonium as landfills develop anaerobic conditions.

    The existing design proposes for the leachate treatment 3 ponds.

    Considering inflow data and reviewing experiences at other operating landfills in the South of Viet Nam, it should be noted that leachate is very difficult to treat even using several high loading steps of treatment. For example at an advanced landfill in Ho Chi Minh city, process includes a step of physical-chemicals treatment and two steps of biological treatment for removal of organic matter. Additionally two steps of anoxic treatment to remove nitrogen and two steps of physical treatment to remove suspended solid were implemented (CENTEMA, 2008). However, nitrogen parameters sometimes could not meet the standard. The modified technology of leachate treatment plant in Luong Hoa landfill are shown in Fig. 1-6.

    Figure 1-6: Chart of Leachate treatment process in the Luong Boa Landfill

    The presence of nitrogen in the leachate is mainly in the form of ammonium produced

    under anaerobic conditions in the landfill. As experiences of leachate treatment at Nam Binh Duong Landfill (Binh Duong Province) and Soc Son Landfill (Ha Noi) show,

    currently the most suitable process to remove ammonia is stripping. During the process

    the pH of leachate is raised to 11 or 12, and most of the ammonium converses to

    ammonia that can be removed by air stripping.

    EM, LA VIC Consultant, February 2011 17

  • ..

    -

    Coastal Cities Environmental Sanitation Project (CCESP) - Phase 2 Nha Trang City Sub-project Component 3 - Solid Waste Management

    In addition to the biological step as designed under phase 1 the removal of nitrogen by stripping is strongly recommended.

    For the organic matter and COD, the existing and already constructed pond system is sufficient and operation must include intensive aeration.

    In comparison with the domestic wastewater, leachate contains a high content of Nitrogen, mainly under the type of Ammonium. The treatment technology proposed in the Phase 1 is to use 3 lakes for treatment of leachate. However, the treatment of leachate is very difficult, especially treatment of Nitrogen contained therein. Therefore, within this Phase the Consultant proposes to add 2 more stripping towers. Size of the treatment plant is proposed as follows:

    1. Collection Well: 500m3

    2. Lime mixing tank: HRT: 30 minutes, D=1.2 m x H=2.8

    3. Stripping Tower 1: D=3m x H = 8m;

    4. Stripping Tower 2: D=3m xH = 8m;

    5. Neutralization (eliminating lime): HRT: 3 hours; D=2.8 x H=6m.

    6. Anaerobic pond 1: HRT: 111 days (15,000m3).

    7. Anaerobic pond 2: HRT: 111 days (l5,000m\

    8. Oxidization ditch: HRT: 66 days (9000m\

    The leachate, after treated, will meet the class B2, the National Technical Regulation on Wastewater of the Solid Waste Landfill Sites QCVN 25 :2009 (for BOD, COD, total nitrogen and ammonia), and follow the class B, the QCVN 24:2009 (for other parameters) .

    2.1. NATURAL CONDITIONS

    2.1.1. Geotechnical and hydro-geological conditions

    2.1.1.1. Geo-technical conditions

    General geological characteristics ofNha Trang City are as follows:

    a) The coastal area: most of the covering layers are sand in which several areas have thickness of 3m, followed by layers of clay with good pressure strength (R;:::l kglcm2)

    b) Hillside: includes layers in order:

    - Medium crushed sand layer with R;:::1 Kglcm2

    Carved stone and local coral layer, met at the depth of3+6.5m, thickness of3+3.2m

    - Pebble and clay layer, encountered at depth of 6.5+7.5 m, thickness ofO.8+1m

    - Mixed clay layer, encountered at depth of7+7.6 m, ending at depth of8.8+9.0m

    - Bedrock layer, encountered at depth of 8.8+9m, firm.

    c) Low-lying area (western of the city, located at two sides ofQuan Truong River): The area is usually flooded every year, terrain elevation is less than I meter, strata includes following layers:

    - Top layer is gray white sand in soft plastic status, thickness from 1.5 to 2.5 m, this layer is widely distributed throughout the area.

    - Next layer is a black clay sludge and shell layer in stretching status, thickness of about 7m.

    - Under clay sludge layer is sludge layer, gray, stretching status, thickness of2.5 m

    - At a depth of about 20m is yellow grey layer, semi-solid to solid status at depth of -20m to-25m.

    2.1.1.2. Hydro-geologicalfeatures

    Currently, Nha Trang City has large reserves of underground water; however, the water is mostly contaminated with salinity in coastal areas and at river outlets in Cai and Quan Truong River.

    According to the geological survey report of Phase 1 and Phase 2 by VIW ASE implemented in September 2005 and May 2009, the hydrological characteristics in the project area are summarized as follows:

    EfA, LA VIC Consultant, February 2011 20

  • II

    Coastal Cities Environmental Sanitation Project (CCESP) - Phase 2 Nha Trang City Sub-project Component 3 - Solid Waste Management

    • Tide:

    Nha Trang City is close to Nha Trang Bay. Tidal regime in Nha Trang Bay is not even.

    According to observation data in Cau Do hydrological station in Khanh Hoa province,

    there are 18-20 diurnal tide days per month, time of rising tide is more than time of falling

    tide. Fluctuation water has relatively clear periodicity with the largest amplitude of 2.4 m;

    the average amplitude of tidal period is 1.2-2 m. Tidal water level ranges from -1.37 m to

    + 1.03 m (VN2000 National Coordinate System) .

    • Wave:

    Maximum wave height was observed in the coast of Khanh Hoa provincal People's Committee office, which was 2.5 m (November 15, 1990). In Nha Trang Bay observable waves are greater than 2.0 m in height.

    • River:

    - Cai River (Nha Trang):

    In many years, the average annual flow on Cai River in Dong Trang area with basin area of 1,244 km2 basin reaches 56.5 m3/s, corresponding to the module number of flow which is 45.5 l/s/km2 and total flows are 1.78 billion m3/year.

    However, the annual flow variation in years is not great. Coefficient of variation (Cv) of annual flow is 0.37. Annual flow with frequency of 75% is 41.3 m3/s or 1.3 billion m3 of water.

    Flow in Hood season: Annual flood of Cai River in Nha Trang starts from September to December (time maybe different a few weeks).

    Flood peak discharge at peak Ha Ra - Xom Bong is as follow:

It's just a branch of Cai River in Nha Trang; during the dry season there is no water, in the rainy season, water from Cai River in Nha Trang sweeps through adding with field water in Dien Khanh, concentrating and discharging into Be river outlet, Dong Bo river, causing flooding in two riverbanks.

    According to the plan, Quan Truong River will be improved, straightened to go close to the expansion area of the city to the west to ensure flood discharging in part of Cai River to Be outlet.

    • Flood:

    In this area, there are often 2-5 floods each year, as mentioned above part of flood flow discharges to Tac River to go to Be outlet. High speed of flood on the river often causes serious flooding to low land. Submerged time can last 2-3 days. Historic floods in 1964 lasted for a week. The most dangerous case is when encountering wave combining with flood tide. In Nha Trang city, the most frequent flooded areas are Dien Khanh district and low areas such as: Vinh Thai, Vinh Ngoc, Vinh Hiep, Vinh Thanh, Vinh Phuoc, Vinh Hai and Ngoc Hiep Ward.

    2.3.1. Flooding and inundations

    Nha Trang City only has storm water drainage system with the limitation of capacity, the flooding and inundation sill happen in some areas ofNha Trang City, especially in rainy season. There is no wastewater drainage system, the dredging of drainage culverts and canals, etc. is very limited, the encroachment of residents and development of trees in some drainage ditches preventing traffic flow, accumulating of waste water causing pollutions and flooding after heavy rains.

    According to the data received from URENCO the average rate for collected waste in 2009 is only 0.72 kg per capita and day. This value is in contradiction to the design criteria of 1,3 kg/person and day. Data on the ratio of waste collected by the infonnal sector to be recycled is not available. Since the infonnal sector is collecting light recyclable materials like plastic and paper, the reduction of the total waste quantity is not as high to be considered in the calculation of the transportation capacity. The volume is more relevant regarding the intennediate storage within the waste bins. As long as there are no data available on the number of recyclers and the quantity and composition of recyclables it is not advisable to modify the given design criteria.

    According to the data presented in Table 2-9 the yearly generation of waste has been

    101.344 tons in 2009, this means the collection rate was below 70 %, compared with the estimation based on official baseline data. It has to be emphasized that the estimation is based on a design criteria, which seems a little high compared with international expenences.

    The collection rate depends mainly on the access to the waste generators and how the general public assists by putting the waste properly where it can be collected by URENCO. All wide streets in the urban wards are serviced daily, the attached alleys are serviced 2 times a week. The rural communes are not serviced every day as reported by URENCO.

    • Future solid waste generation

    In 2009 municipal waste includes besides household waste (garbage) also waste from shops, hotels, restaurants, offices and small scale industries. The daily waste collection includes also the waste generated by the tourists collected from hotels, restaurants and the beach.

    Present waste generators will be also waste generators in the future. But there will be a significant change in Nha Trang: The tourist industry will bring more tourists during the specific seasons and therefore the quantity of waste will presumably change from month to month. The present data base is not sufficient to project the waste generation of tourist in detail. The tourist will increase the volume of packing waste according to their consumption profile. The consultant predicts that this increase will be absorbed by the recyclers rather than added to the general waste. Since the design criteria for the future waste generation are quite high the Consultant does recommends to add a tourist factor.

    Nearly 100% quantity of wastes has been collected in the inner city wards ofNha Trang, despite of the fact that it is very difficult to collect all of wastes from small and narrow roads, alleys and riverbanks where the local villagers still have a habit of free discharging their wastes directly to the rivers. The solid waste management is described as follows:

    Existing methods of collection:

    • The household gathers their family waste bags to the collection points on the roads waiting for dump trucks to collect;

    • Collection by trolleys: Wastes shall be collected from the streets, residential areas, along the alleys by trolleys. These trolleys shall later gather at the "waste collection points" waiting for the dump trucks to collect.

    • Public dustbins: Some streets and residential areas are provided with dustbins with a capacity of 140 liters and 240 liters. Households around these areas shall pour their wastes into such dustbins. Dump trucks shall collect wastes from these dustbins.

    • Market wastes: Solid wastes arisen from the shops shall be put in baskets and then transferred to an intermediate waste conveyance point within the markets. Normally, the intermediate waste conveyance points within the markets are not properly designed.

    Currently, almost of the dump trucks in Nha Trang City do not have lifting equipment, thus the workers must use canvas as lifting tools to load collected waste into the dump trucks. The wastes shall be put on the canvas and 4 workers will raise the canvas to load the wastes on the trucks.

    2.3.2.4. Current Situation of Waste Collection from the Islands

    At present, URENCO has been in charge of collecting wastes from almost of the islands except for the Vinpearl Resort. According to the URENCO, total quantity of population on the islands is estimated 3,000 persons living in about 700 households that belong to Vinh Nguyen ward. Those persons living at the aquatic farms for raising lobsters and shrimps are now discharging a lot of special wastes. According to the URENCO, the quantity of wastes daily collected from islands as follows:

    - Tri Nguyen Island: 22 barrels of240 liters;

    - Bich Dam Island: 5 barrels of240 liters;

    - Dam Vinh Island: 2 barrels of240 liters;

    - Hon Mot Island: 2 barrels of240 liters;

    - Vung Ngan Island: 5 barrels of240 liters.

    Wastes from the households and streets are directly collected by the URENCO's workers and stored in the dustbins at the collection points until they are conveyed by boats to the mainland. Currently, URENCO has not been in charge of collecting wastes from the Vinpearl Resort. Instead, the wastes therein are collected and conveyed to the Ru Ri Landfill by its staff in charge.

    2.3.2.5. Current Situation of Medical Waste Collection and Treatment

    Toxic wastes from the hospitals such as infection-risk wastes, chemical contaminated wastes, etc. These wastes are classified and safely treated at the incinerators of the Dermatology Hospital.

    2.3.2.6. Current Situation of Collection of Construction Waste and Debris

    Construction waste and debris (C&D) is a mixture of construction materials and other components used at the construction sites such as pieces of wood, metal or plastic broken pieces. It is rather expensive to convey such C&D that is normally used for the site leveling within the construction projects in the city as an alternative. Debris is transported to the Landfills. Normally, debris is sold on a basis of measuring by vehicle trips. Only debris mixed with other urban wastes shall be allowed to be conveyed to the Ru Ri Landfill.

    2.3.2.7. Current Situation of Industrial Waste Collection (Hazardous Wastes)

    Currently, only a few factories in Nha Trang are discharging industrial wastes, especially toxic wastes. Collection and treatment of such toxic wastes shall be undertaken and paid by the discharging factories themselves. These factories often hire private companies to

    conduct collection and treatment of toxic wastes. Until 2010, the collection of toxic industrial wastes has not been undertaken by the URENCO.

    2.3.2.8. Solid Wastes in Rivers and Beaches

    URENCO has, at present, used a special kind of equipment for cleaning beaches. However, it is also necessary to take proper measures to mitigate solid wastes from the upstream areas to the sea. Boats have been used by URENCO for fishing the floating wastes out of water in the Cai River. However, capacity and effects of this boat is very low.

    2.4. EXISTING ENVIRONMENTAL STATUS

    2.4.1. Air environment

    In order to evaluate the air environmental situation in project area, the Consultant conducted survey, measurement of some targets of air environmental quality at the expected construction locations of the transferring solid waste station, access T - junction between Nguyen Khuyen and April3rd road; T- junction between Tan Trang and Nguyen Hong Son street; opposite the way go to Be gate on Vo Thi Sau road. The air quality in those areas can be affected by smell, smoke, dust, noise, fly... which is caused by transferring solid waste station operation.

    The environmental parameters were measured at the most typical locations for the basic air quality and reflect fairly accurately the current situation of preparing areas for project construction. The samples were taken continuously in Ihour; dust indicators PMIO and lead dust were measured in 24 consecutive hours. Monitoring locations were at 1; 7.5; 15; 30; 60m a part from selected site at the height of 1.2 to 1.5 m. The average value was taken and shown in Table 2-11.
