1 INTRODUCTION

1.1 Project Background

The Karnataka State Highways Improvement Project (KSHIP) is an initiative by the Public Works

Department (PWD) of the Government of Karnataka (GOK), under the proposed World Bank loan, to

undertake improvement of 4887.5 km of roads consisting of State Highways and major District

Roads. These roads were selected on the basis of a Strategic Option Study (SOS) carried out in 2003.

To facilitate this job the Government of Karnataka has appointed Mis Scott Wilson Kirkpatrick UK

and Scott Wilson Kirkpatrick India as the Project Coordinating Consultants (PCC) to carry out the

Feasibility study for the road up gradation. Based on the Feasibility study, the GOK selected 268.59

Km of roads for up gradation in a phased manner under KSHIP-II, EPC Package.

The entire road project has been divided into five contract packages. Each contract package is defined

as Route. Keeping in mind the length of routes for easy analysis and understanding of the various

attributes, these have been broken into smaller links. In EIA report, the general impact & mitigations

of all the link roads in KSHIP-II, EPC have already been explained. This volume contains project

specific Environmental Management Plan (EMP) for T8 road link so as to facilitate the easy execution

ofEMP works of the project.

On the basis of above categorization, the road link with length > 30 km and average new land requirement for improvements is < 20 m has been grouped as Category 'B' with respect to EIA Notification. The project needs to obtain environmental clearance from State Environmental Appraisal Committee, Karnataka. The length and RoW details of the proposed road link are as follows.

1.3 Environmental Mitigation and Enhancement measures

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

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

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

come out with an implement able Environmental Management Plan. This plan has been recommended

for feasible and cost-effective measures to avoid, prevent or reduce significant negative impacts on

environment to acceptable levels. Apart from mitigation of the potential adverse impacts on the

environmental components, the EMP identified opportunities that exist for the enhancements along the corridor; some road user facilities such as bus lay bys and waiting sheds (part of civil work) and

parking areas. In order to implement the environmental management plan contractor needs to prepare

specific plans for, Debris Disposal Plan (Includes collection, transportation, haul roads and disposal);

Construction phase water management plan; Management plan for construction camp, Labour camps;

M.magement plan for plant sites (WWM plant, Hot mix, Crushers etc.,); Accidents, Safety and Traffic

me-nagement plan. EMP includes detailed specifications, bill of quantities (BOQ), execution drawings

and contracting procedures for execution of the environmental mitigation and enhancement measures

suggested. Since the project is to be implemented under ICB or NCB contracting, highest standards of

project planning, project management and project implementation are to be maintained. Therefore the

cOlltractor needs to resort to international good practices not only in the implementation of EMP but

also in the constmction activities. The success of the project management is directly linked to the effi!ctive implementation of the EMP measures. All mitigation measures, avoidance measures and

em ironmental enhancement measures recommended are to be implemented in a timely and phased

manner. Proper understanding of all environmental management measures especially the EMAP is a

prerequisite for all those working from the contractor's side.

Thf institutional arrangements required at the PWD, contractors and the CSC (Construction

Supervision Consultant) have been defined properly for the smooth implementation of the project

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

clearances.

2. SUMMARY OF IMPACTS

The project impacts during various phases of the implementation on all the environmental parameters

like Air, Noise, Water, Land and Socio economic factors are discussed in brief in this chapter. The

Table 2.11 provides a Summary of the project impacts.

2.1 Air Environment

Air quality is generally good whole along the project road except along the poorly maintained areas.

These areas are highly dust prone and require sprinkling of water for suppression of the dust. There

are no polluting industries in PIA or adjoining areas. The project road has extensive agricultural areas

on both sides.

Air quality along the project road alignment will be adversely impacted at congested locations and

major urban settlements locations like Haveri. The area will be impacted by air pollution both during

construction and operation stages. Construction stage impacts will be of short term and have adverse

impacts on the construction workers as well as on the settlements adjacent to the alignment, especially

those in the downwind direction. Operation stage impacts will not be as severe as the cons-truction

stage impacts and these will be confined generally to a ribbon development close to edgl! of the

pavement. However, there will be continued enhancement ofair pollution due to increase in number of

vehicles in the road. It is difficult to predict the pollution level from vehicle since it is not known how

the adoption of new technology vehicles would proceed. It is however, possible to assess the future

pollution load on the assumption that the old technology vehicle would persist. The unit load of pollutants from different type of vehicles have been estimated under the same assumption by the

Indian Institute of Petroleum which is presented in Table2.1

Table 2-1: Emission factors of different vehicles (glKm) ~----------,~- ---~----~-----------~--~-------r------~k ___'fypes of Vehicle i CO I HC NOx I SOx Pb TSP .. . Two Wheeler 8.3 5.16 - 0.013 0.004I f Cars I 24.03 I 3.57 1.57 0.053 0.0117

..Based on this factor, the current loads of vehicular pollution in respective links of project area for the year 2006 as well as those expected in 2012 have been estimated in Table 2.2.

Note: TSP: Total Suspended Particulate, CO: Carbon Monoxide, HC Hydrocarbons, NOx: Oxides of Nitrogen, Sox: Sulphur dioxide, Pb: Lead.

2.1.1 Pre Construction & Construction Stage

Increased Suspended particulate matter and emissions of gases like, Oxides of Sulphur, Oxides of II

Nitrogen, Carbon monoxide and Hydrocarbon will be generated during these stages due to enhanced

air pollution by the use of heavy equipments and machinery etc; diversion of traffic from the traffic

enroute; during loading and unloading of raw materials at sites; emissions from the hot mix plant and Ii

diesel generators; stone crushing unit operations in the stone quarries and handling and storage of

aggregates and sand at locations of batch mixing plants.

It can be observed from the ambient air quality of the project area except increase in suspended

particulate matter all other air quality parameters such as RPM, NOx, SOx, Pb, CO and HC are within

the limits of ambient air quality standard.

2.1.2 Operation Stage

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

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

the erosion and dust emission.

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

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

released. There may be localized impact from pollution with increase in number of vehicles running

on the road, adulterated fuel supply and poor maintenance of vehicle which spread to down wind

direction depending on the wind speeds.

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

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

the dust levels created by traffic during operational phase.

2.2 Noise Environment

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

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

levels are well within the specified limits. But noise levels would increase significantly during

construction phase due to movement of construction machinery and vehicles during construction &

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

receptors have been located within Impact zone and are close to RoW.

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

operation stages.

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

Noise levels during the pre construction stage are mostly expected to be indicative of prevalent baseline levels apart from localised noise levels at locations where pre construction stage activities

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

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

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

noise impact is bound to be negligible.

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

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

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

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

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

plants, asphalt production plants, produce significant noise during construction stage.

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

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

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

2.2.2 Impact of noise during operation Stage

With the introduction of new pavement, road will be smoothened and widening of road at congested

locations, reduces the generation of noise level during the operation stage. However, there will be

negligible impact from usage of poorly maintained vehicles and old vehicles.

Based on noise level factor, the current noise level of vehicular traffic as well as those expected in

future level have been estimated and given in Table 2.3

The adverse impacts fro111 the increase of noise during construction phase on the near by community

will be reduced by several construction phase mitigation plans. All possible mechanical and .

administrative controls will be practiced to reduce the adverse impacts on the workers. In unavoidable

situations personal protective equipments (PPE) will be provided to the workers based on the nature

ofworks.

Number of sensitive receptors for the construction of noise barriers has been identified and the details

are presented in Appendix -6. These locations have been identified based on proximity of the sensitive

receptors (Schools and Hospitals) to the road traffic and the absence of wall or the inadequate height

of the existing walls. Provision has been made for additional barriers identified during construction

phase. In all areas of identified noise barriers, public will be advised how the noise levels can be

reduced by barriers such as solid walls and vegetative noise barriers. The project does not recommend ~

expensive double glazed windows as an economically viable impact mitigation measure ..

2.3 Water Environment

The water environment is generally good but is being polluted by the large-scale horticultural

activities prevailing in the PIA. In the PIA area, agriculture is the main land use. Agriculture requires application of pesticides and Fertilizers. This is a major contamination source for the Ground water in Iii the project road. Otherwise the water quality has been good in above road link.

There is a major river namely, Varadha (ch. 12.000 km), in the impact zone. Also, there are a -number of ponds, lakes, canals and other streams across the project road. To facilitate the cross-drainage the cross-drainage structures have been proposed including improvements in the existing structures not to affect the existing dnlinage system in the project implementation .. area. The surface water flow in the project area is predominantly from the westto east.

The local community is using water from Varada river and ponds for their daily needs. Some of these (pond at ch. 22.180) will be slightly impacted due to curve smoothening realignment of road. The general ground water contours varies from 500 to 800 Mt above Mean Sea Level. Local communities

are dependant on the hand pumps, tube wells and wells, which will be impacted due to widening and '" ..needs to be relocated before the project starts. Number of water supply units likely affected in each

road links is given in Table 2.4.

Contractor needs to keep a copy of the EA and EMP in the site office. Other than the construction

water issue, no major pollution points have been identified through out the length. No construction

waste shall be disposed off in to the water bodies/valley/nala. The construction vehicles are prohibited from entering the water bodies for any purpose (including cleaning) other than the legitimate

requirements to avoid major pollution points due to Petroleum oil and lubricants.

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

along the project road. These recharge pits harvest rainwater from road surface to improve the ground

water table. Refer Appendix -2 for typical drawing.

The construction water requirement could be an issue during construction at certain stretches of the

project road. As a part of the planning, contractor has to prepare a contractors construction water

management plan as per the guidelines provided in Appendix -15.

2.4 Land Environment

Most of the available stone material along the project area is granites, gneiss and granitic schist. The

metals required for the road construction is available very close to road enroute. Use of explosive is

abwlutely necessary to break open the aggregates in the stone quarry. In order to use these materials,

contractor will have to establish a number of crushers along the project route from which impact will

be very large and permanent in nature.

There \\ ill be exploitation of natural resources and it also reduces natural beauty of the landscape and

alters contours of the geographical region. There will be formation of deep and large depression from

the quarry operations. This will be fatai for both the animals and humans in case fall in to depressions from surrounding habitat. Some times there is possibility of flying fragments of stones from

uncontrolled blasting using explosives surrounding to quarry area prevails.

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

Borrow material includes gravel, murrum and sand. Generally gravel is collected from the wasteland,

which is notified from Government or with the consent of farmers in case of farmland. Sand will be

collected from river valleys this alters the course of flow and velocity of flow of water in rivers.

Transport of the borrow materials to the construction sites is of significance, as almost all such areas

are accessible through dirt tracks. Spillage and compaction of soil along these tracks will be a

significant impact. Special transport facilities with special measures are required to transport

bituminous material from the refineries to work sites, as they are highly inflammable and to control

accidental spills. Proper protection measures need to be worked out for the minimizing of such

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

is from stone crushing operations from the crusher and the vibrating screen. The dust, in addition

causes an eyesore, reduces visibility thereby increasing safety concerns. Rehabilitation of borrows

areas from which earth has been excavated, is a potential problem, which needs to be addressed and

need to comply with management plan Appendix - 17. In addition to visual light, safety issues shall

2.4.1 Land use Impact

The major land use in the project area is extensive agriculture and existence of settlement at locations

of village and small towns having active commercial and economic activity along the roadside. The accurate surveys and accurate markings and negotiations will determine land use changes and finalize

the alignment to minimize acquisition procedure. Any additional land available must be put to use for

productive purposes. Mitigation related to land acquisition and resettlement will be undertaken as

specified by the Resettlement Action Plan (RAP).

2.4.1.1 Land use Impact at Construction phase

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

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

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

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

cl{~ared within shortest period. Potential community impact related to economy growth are closely

related to land acquisition, aesthetic and landscape considerations; noise, air quality etc., Other than th(: mitigation in these area no additional mitigation actions are warranted.

2.4.1.2 Land use impact during operation phase

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

m~uor land use change such as ribbon development will take place.

2.5 Biological Environment

2.~;.1 Flora

Total number of trees to be felled in the project area for the road expansion is presented in Table 2.6

Alllrees of girth size more than 30 cm cut and removed will be accountable as per the Forest laws and effo:1:s will be maintained to plant two times the number of trees cut according to compensatory afforestation guidelines.

There are no forest sections along the project road.

The widening proposed in the non-forest locations will consume the agricultural land, which has potential to grow crops. The increase in suspended particulate matter has significant impact over the productivity of the crop and plant growth during construction.

2.5.2 Fauna

There are no notified National parks and Wild life sanctuary identified within the boundary of 10 km from the proposed road link. There are no endangered, critically endangered and threatened categories of fauna in the near by vicinity of the project roads.

The common traffic - animal conflict or accidents by rash driving or break down of vehicles leads to

death of cattle and domestic animals. These conflicts are in minor in nature which can be resolved

with cash compensation pay to cattle owners. Some times there will chemical spill or indiscriminate

disposal of bituminous materials in the forest area these toxic foreign materials may enter surrounding

water bodies and prove detrimental to local fauna. It is necessary to comply with Hazardous Waste

Material Handling Rules, 1989 to protect animals by consuming such contaminated water.

2.6 Socio economic Environment

The socio economic environment has considered the land use changes, impacts to drinking water

sources, impact to land & properties and impact to cultural properties. ..

A variety of utilities serving the regional needs are currently within RoW. The Categories of such ..

utilities are as follows Table 2.7

Table 2-7: Shifting of electrical and telephone poles

T8 /Haveri (NH4) - Hangal ,339 11 0

The required mitigation measure would be to ask in advance the relevant owners of these utilities to

shift those before construction start to avoid disruption of regional services. It is the PWD's

responsibilities to make the land available for construction free of all encumbrances.

Project has integrated several mitigation, avoidance and enhancement plans relating to socio .. economic aspects that include provision for parking areas, bus bays, rain Shelters etc., in to the .. engineering design to improve the quality of life in these areas.

2.6.1 Cultural properties .. 2.6.1.1 Temples and other Community assets

Temples and other community assets located along the project road (within RoW) are directly or indirectly impacted from the road project. Those that require shifting will be dealt in the Resettlement Action Plan (RAP). In order to avoid community conflicts, contractor will have to discuss with the local community prior to taking up of the construction work at such sites. The community assets,

which are getting affected, are given in the following table - 2.8
