1 Summary

1.1 Brief Introduction of Project

1.1.1 Project Purpose

Hunan Province has sought World Bank assistance for the Hunan Urban Development Project (HUDP),which will contribute to sustainable urban development in the Changsha-Xiangtan-Zhuzhou (CZT)region through selected investments to address priority needs, capacity building and institutionaldevelopment. It is currently proposed that the loan application be presented to the Bank Board forapproval in June 2004.

The HUDP proposed the following priority investments:

* PCI - The Corridor Component, to improve flood control measures and develop recreational(scenic) roads on/along the embankment, in four selected sections of the three municipalities.

* PC2 - The Changsha Wastewater Component, to increase the percentage of sewage treatedin the urban areas of the municipality, and to develop the Changsha Municipal DrainageCompany (CMDC) into an autonomous public utility operating on commercial principles.

* PC3 - The Zhuzhou Clean Coal Component, to reduce air pollution through the productionand sale of low sulphur coal and ensuring its use.

* PC4 - The CTZ Logistics Centre Component, to better utilise Zhuzhou's locationaladvantages as a major transport hub and to create employment opportunities.

* PC5 - Xiangtan No. 4 Bridge Component, to provide for a continued smooth flow of trafficacross the Xiangjiang River in Xiangtan in the medium term. (The Xiangtanl No.4 BridgeConmponenlt has been removedfrom the Project)

* PC6 - Zhaoshan Scenic Area Component, to conserve and improve the surroundings of eightold temples and historic relics, old trees and plantations, and supporting infrastructure forvisitors.

Institutional development and capacity building will complement the investment components throughthe provision of technical assistance. Capacity building and training for the CZT Economic IntegrationOffice is also an important project component.

1.1.2 Construction Scope and Main Technical Index

The CEA is based on the FSRs and design details that have been prepared as of January 2004. Some ofthe component EA reports had been based on earlier designs and have been amended as necessary.Ens ,roiental Management Plan 1 DRAFT206033/05/A/February 2004


There may be ongoing refinement and optimisation of some of the project features, but these should

not affect the results of the EA to any great extent. Any major reconfiguration of the component

projects could result in an amended EA and/or addendum report.

PCI, Corridor Component

The proposed project aims to greatly strengthen the flood prevention capability of the CZT ecological

corridor. and to improve the present eco-environment, to develop the integrated economy and facilitate

the development of tourism, and ecologically improve the regional economy and people's life quality.

The current flood control system differs greatly between urban and rural areas in the ecological

corridor. The flood-control infrastructure is still weak, even absent, in the rural areas along the

Xiangjiang River. This component is described along the river as four sections: Zhuzhou, urban areas

of Xiangtan, Zhaoshan of Xiangtan and Changsha, with total length of about 72.38 km:

Z1huz/loui

This section is 33.02 km long at western side of Xiangjiang. It starts at Kongzhoudao Navigation

Complex, passing through Leidashi to Xiangjiang Bridge, and ends at 400m downstream of Shifeng

Bridge. The project client is the Zhuzhou Municipal Urban Development Investment Corporation.

Environniental Management Plan 4 DRAFT206033/05/A/February 2004


Drcainagee Clhanniiels

Gravity flow and pumped drainage is common due to the extended periods of high water in the floodseason. The drainage channels (flood relief canals) that are included in the project are relatively majorchannels compared with the many minor drains serving land adjacent to the embankments. Thedrainage channels have a total length of 21 km and convey floodwater to the river from inlandcatchment areas totalling 107 km2 . Over the years their capacity has become reduced due to siltation ofthe bed. There are reported to be a total of nine drainage channels: 3 in Jiefang polder, 3 in Nantuopolder, and one each in Zhaoshan, Xiangtan and Zhuzhou.

In one or more cases there are flood detention reservoirs in the drainage catchment areas. These areequipped with pumping stations discharging into the flood relief channels. The number, location anddetails of detention reservoirs are not yet clear.

The extent of proposed works included in the project and associated with these flood relief channels isnot yet clear. It is not yet clear how many of the channels require more than dredging of sediment andraising and strengthening embankments. Preliminary indications are that five of the channels aresubject to more extensive engineering designs and civil works.

Outline drawings of eight selected channels that will be excavated and/or dredged are being finalisedand reviewed. At the preliminary design stage these drawings will be completed with further crosssections and channel long sections. It is noted that the discharge capacities range from 7.85 to 102.0m3/s and that the channels are concrete lined. The sluice structures and outfall arrangements at theriverbank are being checked for exit velocities and energy dissipation under worst conditions of lowriver water level and design discharge.

PC2, Cliangsha Wastewater Component

The project area for the HUDP wastewater component is limited to the Changshanyuan catchment areaof Changsha, which forms one of seven drainage zones in the He Dong (East Bank) area of theChangsha urban area. The area of the Changshanyuan drainage zone is about 18 km2 out of the totalplanned urban area of the city in 2020 of 367 km 2.

The collection network in Changshanyuan area is partially constructed. There are three sub-catchmentsas follows:

* Central area (approx. 14.5 km2)

* Dongtundu (approx. 1.5 kM2)

* Tingzigan (approx. 2.6 kM2 )

Approximately 17.7 km of primary sewer pipelines have already been laid in Changshanyuan area.Connectivity to the existing primary network in the area is thought to be quite high. Recent flowmonitoring indicates that a total of 91.200 m3/day of wastewater is being discharged to the existing

network. Currently all sewage collected is discharged untreated to the Liuyang river or its tributary.

the Guitang River. Most of the times the collected wastewater is discharged by gravity but when the

river level is high, sluice gates are closed and the wastewater is pumped by one of the four existing

drainage pumping stations in the area. Changshanyuan is a rapidly developing area with a current

permanent population of 115,400. which is expected to grow to 205,200 by 2010.

The need for a comprehensive primary collection network and centralised wastewater treatment facility

for this area of Changsha city is apparent to meet the objectives of the City Master Plan as well as

national and CMG's water quality objectives. To meet the needs of Changshanyuan area wastewater

collection, treatment and disposal, the procurement of two principal sub-components is proposed:

* Centralised WWTP with treated effluent disposal to the Liuyang River;

* Completion of the primary collection system in the service area and infrastructure for transfer

of intercepted flow to the WWTP and disposal of excess stormwater.

The WWTP was originally to be located in the north of the Changshanyuan service area but the site

was determined to be unsuitable and an alternative site extending to 11 hectares has been designated

outside the service area on the east bank of the Liuyang River in an area known as Xilong Village. The

proposed WWTP will be designed to provide secondary treatment meeting Category B Grade I effluent

standards to GB18918 -2002. The capacity is set at 120,000 m3/d designed to cater for flows from the

Changshanyuan catchment up to 2010. Provision will be made for extension of the WWTP to a total

capacity of 320,000 m3/d in the second phase from 2010 to 2020.

The proposed process will include preliminary treatment (coarse and fine screening and grit removal).

extended aeration using the process known as 'A20' followed by disinfection (chlorination) although

the need for disinfection has yet to be fully determined. Discharge will be to the Liuyang River

adjacent to the WWTP. Sludge treatment will include thickening, anaerobic digestion, dewatering and

disposal of stabilised sludge to the Heimifeng Sanitary Landfill Site.

Normal ancillary buildings in accordance with CJJ31-89 are proposed for the WWTP and siteworks

including internal access roads and landscaping will complete the scope of works. The proposed main

sub-components of the wastewater collection network are summarised as follows:

* Approximately 36.3 km of combined sewer pipes and culverts ranging in size from 1000mm

pipelines to twin 8.0 m wide x 2.9 m deep box culverts to complete the primary wastewater

collection network in the Changshanyuan catchment area;

* Three combined sewer overflows (CSOs) to allow excess flow during heavy rainstorms to be

separated from the flow to treatment stream;

* Three storm water pumping stations to lift excess storm water overflowing from the CSOs to

discharge into the Liuyang river with peak capacities as follows:

o Central Area PS 46.0 m3/s with a lift of 7.6 m

o Dongtundu PS 12.0 m3/s with a lift of 7.0 m

o Tingzigan PS 13.6 m3 /s with a lift of 7.0 m

EnN ironmental Management Plan 6 DRAFrT206033/05/A/February 2004


Approximately 5.3 km of gravity flow sewers ranging in size from 800mm to 1.800mmdiameter to transfer intercepted wastewater from the CSOs to a transfer pumping station;

* A transfer pumping station of unspecified capacity and head to transfer intercepted flow totreatment to the WWTP. (The pumping station may be adjacent to or part of the Central Areastormwater pumping station.)

* A pumping main of 1,800mm diameter, 1,600m long to transfer the intercepted wastewaterflow from the transfer pumping station to the WWTP with a twin 1,200 mm diameter rivercrossing 450m long.

Hunan Urban Mott MacDonald

Development Project Hunan Provincial Development and Planning Commission

PC3, Zhuzhou Clean Coal Component

PC3 entails the construction of a series of coal water mixture and briquette manufacturing plants and the

renovation of a coal washing plant in Zhuzhou to provide clean coal products, which will replace the use of

raw coal and fuel oil. It will help reduce sulphur dioxide emissions in the CZT region. It is intended to serve

as a pilot for other potential projects in the region for the future.

The monitoring statistics indicate that the CZT atmospheric environment is severely polluted by the burning

of coal, and an acid-rain belt has taken shape from Yueyang City southward to Chenzhou City, the

highest acid-rain areas in the whole country. Therefore, the emerging CZT needs for cleaner energy

and air quality drive the necessity of construction of this project.

As an extension work, this component is to be constructed in the Shanmutang Industrial District of

Zhuzhou City, where the project client (Hunan Zlhuxi Clean Coal Co Ltd HZCCC) is located. The

proposed component includes following system/workshops:

* Coal preparation system: 1,000,000 tla

* Coal water mixture workshop (CWM) 500,000 t/a (phase I 250,000 t/a)

* Coal briquette (CB) workshop 500,000 t/a (phase I 250,000 t/a)

According to the signed purchase agreement, there is a demonstrated demand of over 4,440,000 tons

per year of cleaner coal. Raw coal is the main production material of the HZCCC. The designed

production capacity is 1,800,000 tons per year of coal cleaning, and in 1991 was identified for

production of 2,400,000 tons by the Coal Resource Ministry. The combined techniques of jigging and

flotation are introduced to produce washed coal and flotation coal. Most of the current production

capacity is unused. Furthermore, the devices have aged after running for 40 years. The HZCCC has to

find new ways for development.

The exhaust gases mainly come from loading and unloading of raw coal, crusher, and coal cleaning

process. The gases consist mainly of coal dust. HZCCC have installed respective control facilities for

dust sources, including ventilators and dust catchers, to meet the emission standards. But, due to

improper maintenance and long history, the effect of the dust catchers of the coal-unloading pit and

No.2 workshop has degraded to a great extent.

A WWTP with a treatment capacity of 360 cubic meters per day has been in operation since 1991 and

has operated satisfactorily. Sedimentation and filtration techniques are used and the existing treatment

capacity is able to meet the proposed production. The coal refuse produced in the production process is

transported out and piled up in the coal refuse yard.

PC4, CZT Logishcs Centre Component

The implementation agency of the CZT Logistics Centre Component is the Zhuzhou Yujiaping Railway

Transportation Co. Ltd. This company is a financially independent enterprise. The proposed CZT modem

logistic centre is based in existing Yujiaping railway yard of Hunan Zhuzhou Chemical Industry Group Co.

Ltd in the north of Zhuzhou City. The proposed project component will provide a wide range of services to



local exporters and importers to facilitate their logistics management, including transportation, storage,loading. packing, distribution, and customs processing.

The project component will be constructed in phases. The first phase mainly involves the construction ofmodern logistic service, including functional blocks as multi-transport and containers block, modem storageblock, distribution service block, office and service block, auxiliary production block, and power block. TheProject will have bulk goods capacity of 1 million tons, including 560,000 tons by railway, 440,000 tons by

roads (including 132,000 tons distribution and delivery), and the capacity for international containers is30,000 standard boxes.

This component is to be located at Yujiapin, Shifeng District, Zhuzhou City. As a centre, it is designed toprovide modem logistic services to CZT urban cluster. The centre will include the following zones:

PC 6, Zhaoshan Scenic Area Component

Zhaoshan is a famous, old-line mountain in Hunan Province, which is located at the town of Yijiawan,20km north of Xiangtan. It's an important infill among the three cities in both waterway and roadtransportation. The scenic area is a key component of the "General Plan of Development of XiangjiangEcological Economic Corridor." For its situation advantages and scenic resources, the construction ofthis project has far-reaching significance in developing the integrated economy, and protecting andimproving the natural ecological environment as well.

The Zhaoshan Tourist and Trade Development Corporation (ZTTDC) are responsible for the Zhaoshanroad section and flooding control component (as a part of Xiangtan section of PC1) and ZhaoshanScenic Area Component (PC6). The PC6 is the focus of social and physical cultural heritage, tourism,education, recreation, landscape, and ecological interests for the CZT region.

The objectives of the project are to:

* Fulfil the stated intentions of the strategic development plans for the Xiangjiang Ecologicaland Economic zone, and to improve the quality of life of the people of the three cities;

* Complement the other HUDP project components in particular the construction of the ScenicRoad, the landscaping and flood protection along the banks of the Xiangjiang River;

1.2 Evaluation Standard

1.2.1 Project Categorisation

For the extensive content and possibly far-reaching impact over the surrounding environment,according to the EA Policies of the World Bank, the Hunan Urban Development Project was classifiedas Category A for environmental assessment. The HEPRI classifications of environmental assessmentfor various subject areas are described as follows:

Surface Water

Because of the significant impact of Changsha wastewater component on surface water environment(both positive and adverse impact), which as been classified as Chinese Grade A for component EA,the Consolidated EA is therefore classified as Grade A.

Eco-En vironment

For Eco-Environment Assessment category of the components of Rivershore Corridor and ZhaoshanScenic Area was simplified as Category C, the Consolidated EA is therefore classified as Category C.

Atmospheric Environment

For the regional feature of this project, especially the PC3 acid rain control, the assessment ofatmospheric environment in the Consolidated EA is Category B.

Acoustic Environment

With rapid urbanisation and growth of population, residents in urban area are increasingly disturbed bynoise. According to the statistical data, in 2002, ambient noise of road traffic in Zhuzhou cityexceeded the National standards (with Leq higher than 70 dB), although ambient noise of road trafficin Changsha and Xiangtan were within the standard. Ambient noise (in terms of Leq) in cities ofChangsha, Zhuzhou and Xiangtan were 53.25 dB, 54.9 dB and 55.0 dB respectively. Because of thescenic road of corridor component impact on acoustic environment (both positive and adverse) whichwas classified as Grade C. therefore, the Consolidated EA has classified as Category C.

1.2.2 EIA Scope

The HUDP aims at facilitating the urbanisation of the three cities, the scope of assessment should notbe the sum of six components, it should be considered with the provincial urbanisation layout program.Hence the scope covers:

Social, Air and Eco-Environment

Environmental Management Plan 15 DRAFT206033 05/AlFebruary 2004


The CEA covers an area of 1300 square km that includes urban areas of Changsha, Zhuzhou, Xiangtanand Yijiawan of Xiangtan.

1.3 Environmental Evaluation

1.3.1 Conclusion of Environmental Influence - Construction Period

Quarry Sites/Borrow Pits

In the feasibility study, the field survey suggested that there are a number of existing quarry sites, largeand medium sized, available in the project area with proven reserves of more than 32 million m3, thatwould be used to construct the flood embankments and scenic roadway. These quarries were said to beof various sizes and having good quality materials to meet the construction needs. The quarries aresaid to be well distributed and convenient for transport with hauling distances of about 10-20 km tothe construction sites.

HEPRI has verified that the HUDP project will not necessitate the construction of new quames, andthat the proposed hauling routes are acceptable.

The project area is rich in earth material. For the construction of the PCI component, it is estimatedthat about 15.9 million m3 of borrow soil will be required, which is to be from 10 borrow pits locatednear to the corridor alignment with hauling distance of 2-5 km. The Xiangjiang river bed reservesabundant gravel and can be used as natural building material. Dredging gravel for commercial purposeis practiced along the Xiangjiang river banks in many areas.

To take soil from the borrow pits, vegetation and top soil will be stripped, which will result inincreased soil erosion. Mitigation measures covering 10 borrow pits (area of 318,548 m3 ) include:

* Open stormwater drainage ditches (60cm wide at bed, 60 deep, with slope 1: 1);

* Install sedimentation ponds in every 150 long of drainage ditch (each include two2m x2mxl sedimentation wells);

* Cover the temporary top soil storing piles with films, take the borrow soil cell by celland backfill topsoil soon after the cells are empty and recover the sites vegetation;

* Limit the excavation slope to be less than the stabilised natural slope and less than 4mdeep;

* Backfill the completed borrow pits with spoils and the top soil, then level the groundand recovery the vegetation;

* Finish the slope of completed borrow pits and cover the slope with greensward.

Clhannel silt

There are 9 drainage channels (flood-relief channels) included in the PCI component with total length

of 21 km (3 in Jiefang polder, 3 in Nantuo polder and one each in Zhaoshan, Xiangtan and Zhuzhou).

They convey floodwater to the river from inland catchments areas totalling 107 km2 . Over the years.

their capacity has become reduced due to siltation of the bed. These channels are to be

excavated/dredged and their embankments are to be consolidated. According to the FSR, about 1.14

million m3 of silts/sediment are to be excavated and dredged to increase the capacity.

Of the nine flood relief-channels, 6 channels are located in the Changsha section, one is in Zhuzhou

County at upper end of Zhuzhou section, and one is in the Zhaoshan section in a rural area with one

larger sized industrial enterprise. These eight channels drain stormwater and sanitary sewage from

rural residential and industrial areas.

Environmental Management Plan 18 DRAFT206033/05/A[Febmarty 2004


However, the Muyu channel in Xiangtan section drains domestic sewage of eastern urban districts ofXiangtan and industrial wastewater. In this catchment, the main industrial sectors are iron and steelindustrv. machinery industry, chemical industry. Sediment to be dredged at Muyu channel mayinclude heavy metals and toxics. As the local EA institute did not anticipated the potential impact ofpossible contaminated sediment on environment until end of 2003, the local component EA team nowplan to conduct sediment testing in late February 2004. On the basis of these test results, the EAinstitute will prepare a detailed plan for how to handle and dispose of hazardous materials duringconstruction.

Noise

Operating machine and transportation vehicles mainly produce noise in the construction period..According to the prediction results, people within 100 meters around the noise sources will more orless be affected, especially during the night hours. Therefore, construction in the night should beavoided and the constructing machines of low noise should be preferred and maintained with care.

Table 1-8 provides the expected construction phase noise impacts, relationship to sensitive points, andproposed mitigation measures.

Dust

The sources of flying dust in the construction period include transportation, process of loading and

unloading, earthwork, land scraping, laying of sewers and materials as well as disposal of disused

earthworks. According to the statistics, the flying dusts from transportation take up over 60%, the TSP

concentration at 50 meters from roadside leeward exceeds the standard by 64 times, and 15 times at

150 meters. The next contributor is piling-up of disused earthwork and building materials. Dust amount

is affected by the wind speed.

The planned measures for prevention and control of dust are as follows:

* Strengthen the management, construct in a civilized way and handle constructionmaterials carefully. Before vehicles go out of construction site, mud adhering on theirsurfaces should be cleaned; the vehicles of transporting limes, gravels, cements andcoal ash should be covered with tarpaulin.

* Sprinkling and Cleaning of Road Surface.

* Water should be sprayed on constructional roads and spots 4-5 times a day; spoilscleared and transported timely, and transport trucks covered with tarpaulin;landfilling places covered with soil and compacted; temporary land use recoveredwith vegetations after utilization.

En ironmental Management Plan 20 DRAFT206033/05/A/February 2004


* The concrete mixing spot should be placed far away from the residential area and 300m leeward of sensitive points, the mixer should be specified with sound airproofperformance or equipped with secondary dust catcher.

* Environmental administrations of all levels are required to strengthen theenvironmental monitoring to solve problems on time.

* Choose the construction company with strong strength and adopt pre-mixedmerchandise concrete and closed vehicles. The designated merchandise concreteproducers should be required to do "Three Same-time's" and to adopt effectivemeasures to decrease the influences on the environment, ensuring the air environmentfree from pollution by the measures of strengthening environmental monitoring andmanagement.

* Recover vegetations of temporary land uses after completion of works to avoid waterloss and soil erosion.

Transportation

The transportation of construction materials and pavement of sewers may cause traffic jams and othernegative impacts on transportation and commerce if an effective management plan is not developed.The proposed impacts and mitigation measures are listed in Table 1-9:

Safeot Issues

The potential safety hazard in the constructing period includes two aspects: first, the constructionaccidents, and second, spread of disease from poor hygienic practices or other human factors. Toensure a successful construction, following mitigation measures were recommended by HEPRI:

* All constructors, including the canteen staff, are to have physical examinations beforework;

Ens ironmenial Management Plan 21 DRAFr206033/05/A/Februar 2004


* Medical facilities should be installed in the construction site;

* Guarantee of sanitary drinking waters and meals from the canteen staff is needed:

* Security training is also needed.

Potential geological calamities (landslide) may occuI in the construction sites where geologicalconditions are bad, particularly during the wet season, which would threaten safety of constructionworkers and damage ecological environment. Mitigation measures include:

* Detailed geo-technical survey is required before detailed design.

* Retaining walls should be built at sites with poor geological conditions, and cut theslope to less than 250 at places above the retaining walls.

* Install drainage ditches to reduce erosion of runoff to soil.

* Contractors should strictly abide by safety regulations to avoid safety accidents.

Sensitive Sites and Public Facilities

During the constructing process, once the valuable cultural relic is found, on-site protection measuresshould be instantly made and notifications to the cultural relic administrations. Wastewater collectionnetwork construction in PC2 may impact the public utility lines underneath the urban road. Therefore,detailed survey and geophysical prospecting before detailed design is strongly recommended.

Wastewaters

The wastewaters in the construction period comes from:

* Domestic sewage in the building site;

* Oily waters from operation, cleaning and repair of construction equipment;

* Muddy water from fortification and cleaning of spillways.

Direct discharge of wastewaters listed above will pollute the nearby water environment. Thewastewater amount of each project component is listed in Tables 1-10 and 1-1 1:

The domestic sewage should be gathered and discharged into allocated place by local environmentaladministration after pre-treatment of oil separation, sedimentation. The concrete water and purge watershould be treated by the sedimentation tank and oily water by oil separator before discharge. Whenconstructing spillways, cement and limes should be used as little as possible to prevent impact uponXiangjiang.

Ilnpact on Aquatic Life

In the sections involved in PCI component, there are no natural inflowing river mouths alongXianjgiancg River, the flood-relief channels are all man-made canals. Although construction of theembankment and flood-relief channels will have a short-term impact upon the river water quality, itwill not affect the diversity of aquatic life and destruction to the natural inflowing river mouths.

Analyses of Soil Erosion

According to the Hunan Provincial Soil and Water Conservation Program, the CZT urban areas arelocated within moderate hilly erosion region, where the landform is mainly of hilly land embeddedwith small basins. Due to the weakness of soil to resist erosion, distinct seasons between dry and wet,abundant rainfall, small proportion of woodland, intensive land use development and dense population.erosion is relatively intense in terms of area and intensity.

Mitigationi of Potential Soil Erosion

PC]

In the process of constructing the corridor component, a temporary soil conservation plan should beworked out before the revetment can be called into play; plastic film should be used to prevent soilfrom erosion by rain.

Pro-excavation:

* Consummation of drainage work, setup of spillways to direct rainwater;

Erti ironmental Management Plan 23 DRAFT206033/05/A/Febmuary 2004


* Setup of temporary slag dump and blocks for humus soil for convenient backfillaccording to the needs;

Under excavation:

* Separate excavation is required; the humus soil should be peeled off first to thetemporary slag dump and be covered with plastic film;

* Keep close monitoring on the stability of the construction sites before and after

excavation.

* Timely backfill and resumption of vegetation upon excavation is required;

* Strictly in accordance to the designed side slope requirement;

Post-excavation:

* All-around backfill and resumption of vegetation;

* Trimming and grass planting of side slope.

Temporary soil conservation measures should be worked out before the revetment can be called into

play; plastic film should be used to keep the soil from erosion by rains. In construction of the stockyard.

management measures are required as to average excavation, rectification, backfill, and resumption of

vegetation.

PC2

Sewer construction activity should be scheduled during dry season. The excavated soil should be

backfilled and compacted timely.

PC6:

The construction of new buildings should be strictly controlled so as to prevent the scenic area from

urbanisation or commercialisation. The fraction of forest coverage should be further increased.

1.3.2 Conclusion of Environmental Influence - Operation period

Road Operations

Construction of PC1 will change the regional traffic network; at the same time, enhanced mobility will

bring regional economy more integrated and stimulated land usage along the corridor: further more, the

regional economic development will be hastened for economic structure is optimised and better

conditions are provided.

Tourist Operations

Zhaoshan has abundant scenic and cultural resources covering religions, wartime revolutions, antique

cultures as well as modem Chinese cultures. By construction of this project, as the infrastructure

facilities are improved and sceneries repaired, it will attract more and more tourists, facilitate the

Environmental Management Plan 24 DRArT206033/05/A/February 2004


development of tertiary industry, and help improve the life quality of the local residents; betterenvironment will be created to draw outer investment.

Im pact of PCI - Hydrological Impact

Construction-of the PCI project has little influence on the quantity and level of water when XiangjiangRiver is at its normal stage; while in the flood period, particularly when the water level rises beyondthe designed control level, the flood water from inundated area will join the river water, it will impactthe river hydrological conditions with higher water level, increased flow and velocity.

To mitigate this impact, it is recommended that water resources department should monitor and projectwater flow and water level timely and take emergency measure if the flood event exceeded thedesigned flood control level to safeguard the corridor.

Inpact of PCI - Water Quality Impact

In the operating period, the impact on water quality mainly comes of wastewater from domestic usage,car washer and surface runoff waters from the servicing area; the main pollutants are COD and oils, etc.The quality of wastewater from car washer can be estimated as follows: pH 6.5-8.5; COD25-200mg/L; Oil lOmg/L; SS 500mg/L.The main pollutant factor is SS, which can be effectivelyreduced by sedimentation.

The runoff wastewater quality rests on various aspects, such as traffic volume, rainfall intensity,dryness and vegetation covering rate, etc. Normally, the runoff pollutants are small in quantity; theywill have little impact upon water environment after convergence with other runoffs. Still, runoffs nearthe intake station of water treatment plants should collected by ditches and conveyed into XiangjiangRiver.

To mitigate the impact on water quality, following mitigation measures are recommended:

* Storm water drainage system along the corridor should be cleared and maintainedregularly to avoid any siltation and blockage;

* The storm water drainage system should be designed to be lined with rubble-stone toavoid erosion by stormwater and reduce mini waterfall effect;

* No any outfalls should be allowed to locate in drinking water protection zones(lOOOm upper stream and 100 downstream of the intakes of WTPs;

* Outfalls in Xiangtan that are dominated by industrial wastewater outfalls andrandomly distributed along the corridor should be modified. Wastewater anddomestic garbage generated from services along the corridor (e.g. the parks, aquatelsin Zhaoshan scenic area, farmhouse garden for citizens recreation should not bedischarged into the Xiangjiang River freely.

Imnpact of PC2

The impact of PC2 on water environment is positive, due to the reduced pollutant load. The PC2component will collect and discharge the centralised treated sewage in the service area. It will regulate

Environmental Management Plan 25 DRAFT206033/05/A/February 2004


the existing disorderly discharge status in Liuyang River and reduce the pollution load, the water

quality of Liuyang River and of lower reaches of Xiangjiang River will be greatly improved.

In the operation process. measures should be taken to minimise possible contingencies to avoid

pollutions by untreated wastewaters. Recommended mitigation measures include:

* Design dual power supply systems to avoid electricity cut-off accidents;

* Strengthen maintenance of equipment and sewer system to avoid blockage andsuspension of equipment;

* Workout a best practice for management of risk and procure emergency equipment.

Impact of PC3

The industrial wastewater of this project component will all be reused after treatment. The amount

domestic wastewater, which is discharged into municipal sewers via plant drainage pipes, is very small

and has little impact upon Xiangjiang River.

In the Coal refuse storing yard, a belt conveyor delivers coal refuse (solid waste) generated from the

coal preparation process to a storage yard located 500m northwest of the coal processing facility. The

storage yard is backed by a natural hill at its south. The Hongfu Garden residential quarter, built in

1999, is located at its west end (with only a separation wall and nearest distance of 50 m) which is an

object of EA special concern. There are industries at its north and east. In 1958, there were no

residents and properties around this place except the natural hill, since then this yard has been served as

coal refuse storage site.

To mitigate the potential impacts of coal refuse, a budget of 1 million RMB has been arranged to take

following mitigation measures on the coal storage yard:

* A retaining wall is to be built at west and north side and earth up the wall for planting grass toprevent collapse and mitigate the impact on residential quarter.

* A drainage ditch/channel is to be built at the west and north side to drain runoff into the urbansewer system.

* The entire storage yard needs to be enclosed by extending the wall and signs ofenvironmental protection be placed on the wall. According the provisions of GB 15562.2,regular maintenance of the enclosure wall should be practiced.

* The coal refuse should be watered regularly to prevent dust pollution and hypergolic.* To avoid the secondary air pollution by reusing of coal refuse, the HZCCC, the project PIU

wish PPMO to extend its desire to pack the "multi-purposes utilisation of coal refuse in an

environmental friendly way" as a technical assistance package. In the mean time, HZCCC

has made its commitment to take some actions to avoid potential impact of coal refuse

Impact of PC4

The wastewater of this project component consist of 150 m3 /d of domestic sewage and 100 m3 /d of

industrial wastewater from washing of containers and mechanical equipment repairment and

Environmenlal Management Plan 26 DRAFT206033/05/A/February 2004


maintenance workshop. The washing waters and oil wastewater will be recycled or used for wateringvegetation after sedimentation and oil separation respectively. The domestic sewage will be collectedby a separate sewer system and conveyed into Xiawan WWTP (about 500 m from the logistic centre)for treatment to meet Grade I of standard GB8978-1996 before discharging into Xiangjiang River.

Impact qf PC6

The wastewaters in the scenic area are mainly from domestic sewage of tourists. According to relevantenvironmental requirement, the domestic wastewaters should meet Grade I of the standard (GB8978-96)Therefore corresponding treatment facilities are to be installed. Additionally, to minimize the impact ofaquatic entertaining programs, the electric boats are recommended. Such recommendation will beincorporated in the preliminary design.

Sewage Overflows (Collection, Pump Stations, WWTP)

PC2

After WWTP commissioning, raw sewage may bypass the collection systems, pump stations, andWWTP during storm events (until sewerage systems have been completely separated), electricaloutages or when the WWTP experiences operational problems. The wet well at the pump stations andinlet to the WWTP will provide only a short-term buffer for such situations and raw sewage will besoon bypassed under these circumstances. The collection system and pump stations are designed tointercept 2 times the average daily flow and then will surcharge.

A primary sedimentation tank is now being designed in the WWTP to treat overflows conveyed bypressure pipeline into WWTP during wet season. In the design for such combined sewer system,sedimentation tanks have been considered in front of the manhole located ahead of the interceptionchambers to serve for the purpose of reducing pollution load from overflow, as well as protecting theinterception chambers and downstream pipes from silting up.

The project client should set up specific supervising department to administer and protect the pipelinesand pump stations, once leakage or overflow occurs, instant maintenance is to be made. Thewastewater overflowing in the raining period must be discharged after sedimentation.

The Changshanyuan WWTP should strengthen the management by setting up the post duty system,periodically examining the treatment devices and timely handling the problems found.

PC3

The HZCCC has a WWTP with a treatment capacity of 360 m3 /d and has been in operation since 1991and has operated well. The tertiary sedimentation and filtration technique is used and the existingtreatment capacity is able to meet the proposed production, without overflow.

PC4

After pre-treatment, the wastewater of PC4 are collected and conveyed into Xiawan WWTP meet thestandard, and then discharged into Xiangjiang.

Environmental Management Plan 27 DRAFT206033/05/AfFebnmary 2004


PC6

The wastewaters are mainly domestic sewage produced by the tourists. They will be solved by setting

up of ecological toilets; after being treated by a small-scale treatment system to meet the standard, they

are finally discharged into Xiangjiang River.

HEPRI suggested the following measures of impact prevention and mitigation:

* Careful design and construction. Runs of pipelines shall bypass the areas where the ground islikely to settle or unstable; the pipe sections crossing major traffic primary roads shall besleeved, and apparent signs set up on the ground; when other major works or nearby roads areunder construction, in-situ safety, supervision and protection works shall be done well.

* Power must be supplied to pumping station in double circuits to guarantee the reliability ofpower network; diesel driven pumps and generating units should be equipped as far aspossible.

* Maintenance for pumping station and pipeline shall be conducted when main factories alongthe route have stopped production for inspection and repair; when a pipeline is undermaintenance, tributaries or surpassing pipes shall be opened to deplete overflows as much aspossible.

* Place signs to warn people not to access to the outfalls of overflow.* Runs of pipelines shall bypass the areas where the ground is likely to settle or unstable; the

pipe sections crossing major traffic primary roads shall be sleeved, and apparent signs set up

on the ground; when other major works or nearby roads are under construction, in-situ safety,

supervision and protection works shall be done well. Power must be supplied to pumping

station in double circuits.

Industrial Waste Upsets

According to HEPRI, there is not a large industrial contribution to the PC2 sewerage system and

WWTP. Pre-treatment has been a problem in most of China. There is a possibility of industrial waste

upsets to the sewerage system and WWTP but rigorous influent monitoring will be specified as well as

operational plans to mitigate such problems.

Since 1999, HEPB has requested that the enterprises with a daily discharge volume of 10,000 m3 have

to install on-line monitoring instruments to monitor wastewater flow and CODc,; that local Municipal

Environmental Monitoring Station carry out irregular selective inspections in combination with

enterprises' applications for discharges so as to restrain enterprises to conscientiously enforce the laws

and regulations of the state and to accomplish discharging after meeting the standard, to guarantee

normal and stable operation of WWTP. HEPB is considering to set a management regulation to

enforce the implementation of this requirement as a compulsory measure. Supervision shall be

strengthened.

Ecological Environment

Impact of PCI

Environmental Management Plan 28 DRAFT206033/05/A/February 2004


Since PCI only raises and strengthens the embankment, it has little impact upon the river shore eco-environment, especially on aquatic life. In the flood period, floods that used to submerge the rivershore land will increase the water quantity and flow velocity; therefore more land area will besubmerged by uplifted water level. According to past hydrological statistics, in the CZT Area, thelloodinc frequency is about 26%, lasts about 2 months each time. No endangered species exist on theriver island, so the impact upon island wildlife was considered small by HEPRI. The island vegetationwill resume its original appearance after the flood recedes.

In the initial stage of the operating period of this project, by consummation of the greening andprotection works, the soil erosion status will be further improved. But as it takes time for vegetation tomature, soil erosion caused by construction of flood banks and scenic road will still be in existence andwill come back to the pro-project level in two more years. If protection measures reinforced, the soilerosion status will be less serious than before.

Ihmpact of PC6

After the construction of the component and re-afforestation in the project area, ecological environmentwill be much more improved and benefit to bio-diversity. As the enhanced eco-environment is morecomplicated, by mutual restraint and inter-dependency of the propagation, the ecosystem of the scenicarea will become more stable and balanced.

As the number of tourists increase after the project, there will be more bad behaviours like picking oftree branches, trample of grass field, smoking or picnic. Chances of fatal accident will also increasesuch as fire hazard caused by smoking and picnic; and possibly there will be more plant diseases andinsect pests. These problems are crucial to draw great importance from ZTTDC to work out a goodoperation management program.

Air Quality lmpacts

PC] - Exhaust gases from vehicles

The impact of PC1 component on air quality would be caused by vehicle exhausted gas emission and willimpact air quality along the scenic road area. When the wind direction is perpendicular to the line sourceof noise pollution and due to the impact of road operation, the increased NOx concentrations at sensitivepoints are fairly small and meet Grade II of Standard GB 3095-96, except the sensitive point of Zhaoshanunder the long-term scenario because of the baseline data has been higher.

PC3 - Exhaust Gases

The sources and pollutants of the exhaust gases in PC3 are as follows:

* Boiler exhaust gases, of soot and SO2, are to be controlled by adopting the water film dustcatcher;

* Tailgases of dust from driers of CB processing system are to be controlled by bag dustcollector;

En,ironmental Management Pian 29 DRAFr206033/05/A/Febmary 2004


* Flying dust from loading and unloading of materials are to be controlled by spraying water

and exhausting system.

* Flying dust from crusher is to be controlled by exhausting system.

The exhaust gases mainly come from loading and unloading of raw coal, fragmentation, and process.

Tables indicate that the main pollutant sources are boiler soot, dried tailgases, and tailgases from dust

catcher in the fragmentation process. The emission concentration and rate of TSP from the dried

tailgases meet the requirement of Grade 2 in Integrated Emission Standard Of Air Pollutants

(GB16297-1996); emission concentration of TSP from the fragmentation tailgases, but as it is emitted

via chimneys of 15 meters high, the emission rate exceeds the standard by 3.4 times. The boiler soot,

after being treated by the water film dust catcher, can meet the standard by selection of fuel.

If the thermal coal is used, the concentrations of soot and SO2 are 300mg/m3 and 1300mg/m3 , which

exceed the standard by 1.5 and 1.44 times; if the CWM is used, the concentrations are 60mg/mi3 and

510 mg/m3 , which take up only 30% and 56.7% of the standard value. And the emission rate of both

pollutants will meet the standard with either fuel, if the chimney is over 35 meters high.

To meet the standard, HEPRI recommended:

* To use the CWM as boiler fuel;* According to regulations in GB13271-2001, the chimney of 6.5t/h boiler must be at least 35

meters high and 3 meters higher than the highest building within 200 meters around it; the

crusher chimney must be 24 meter high at least.

PC6

In the operating period of PC6, as the traffic volume increases, the tail gas and flying dust produced by

the running vehicles will have some adverse impacts upon the atmospheric environment in the scenic

area. From report of other similar projects, the tail gas is the main contributor of impact. The SO2 and

NO, concentration along the roadside will increase to some extent.

If small carriageways are constructed in the scenic area, the atmospheric environment may be polluted

by tail gases. For protection of the air quality, HEPRI recommended that only pollution-free cars be

allowed in the scenic area. Additionally, for there are still some residents living inside or around the

scenic area, and coal remains their main thermal resource, cleaner resources like liquefied petroleum

gas, biogas and electric power are recommended. These issues will be taken into account in the

preliminary design phase of the project.

Noise

Imilpact of PCI

Predictions for traffic noise were made according to the calculation model recommended by the

Specifications for EIA of Highway (proposed, JTJO05-96). The result of the noise analyses for PC1

indicates the following:

Environmental Management Plan 30 DRAFr206033/05/A/Febniary 2004


* Noise is higher after the road is open to traffic; and is indirectly related to the distance fromthe road;

* For the sensitive points, the noise values of Spl and SpS all meet the standard and those ofSp2 all exceed the standard with a maximum value of 67.6dB(A): the noise values of Sp3 andSp4 slightly exceed the standard in the night-time. As the exceeding rate in Sp3 and Sp4 issmall, the noise can be reduced to meet the standard by relevant control measures such asplanting trees. Sp2 - is to be relocated (included in RAP).

* For pump stations, the affected area by noise of the water pumps covers: 50 meters aroundthe pump in the daytime and 100 meters in the night-time. According to investigations, thesepumps only run in hard rain period. Control measures such as shock absorption and selectionof low noise pumps are recommended.

Itmipact of PC2

Noise from PC2 includes WWTP noise and pump station noise. The former mainly comes from basepump station and aerator. HEPRI concluded that the noise impact of the WWTP site is acceptable.However, as blaster blower will be used in Changshanyuan WWTP, the noise value will be slightlyhigher than the above results. Some specific protection measures might be necessary. Besides,according to the investigations, there are about 100 households living within 100 meters around thelifting pump station and central pump station; and according to the prediction results, noise exceed thestandard within 50 meters around these pump stations, therefore, measures like sound insulation andselection of low noise pumps are needed.

Imtlpact of PC3

In the operating period, noise mainly comes from crusher, ball mill, vacuum pump, vibration mill,colloid mill and blower fans. Since high noise machines such as vibration mill and crusher are to beinstalled with vibration and noise reduction facilities, and located in enclosed workshops, the noise canbe reduced to about 85 dB(A).

According to on-site monitoring, the noise in southwest residential (inside the factory) area exceeds thestandard for it is the closest point to the noisiest crusher house. Therefore, sound insulation is necessaryfor the crusher house. The noise intensity of the operating machine must meet relevant standard;measures like vibration reduction, sound proof, silencing and planned layout are suggested to minimizethe impact; vehicles run at limited speed and whistles are prohibited in the residential area.

Imiipact of PC4

The transportation vehicles like trains and automobiles are the main contributor of noise. Followingmeasures are recommended: economic compensation or installation of soundproof doors and windowsfor the affected people; whistles should be as few as possible.

Imiipact of PC6

Another important possible polluter is No.107 Highway. HEPRI monitored the acoustic environment at100 meters away from the highway during Nov 30h and Dec 2nd of 2003, and the results all met the

En,ironmental Management Plan 31 DRAFr206033/05/A/February 2004


standard. As the
