1． General

1.1 Project Background

Yunnan is a Province integrating border, mountainous, diversified ethnic

nationalities. In recently year, the Province is experiencing rapid

socio-economic growth, economic restructuring and changes of development

pattern. Opening up & reform and science & technology advance have

become impetus to promote local economic development. On Oct. 28, 2005,

the State Council promulgated “A Resolution of the State Council on greatly

development of vocational education” which defined guiding ideology,

objective, task and policy interventions for vocational education to reform and

develop. Development of vocational education became an important

foundation and a strategic keystone in socio-economic development. It was

decided to develop vocational education with Chinese characteristics to speed

up fostering laborers with high technical skills and competency. Yunnan

Province intend to enhance relevance of Yunnan’s TVET to local economic

development, enlarge TVET scope, improve quality of TVET and to educate

more skilled talents to respond the increasing needs of labor market,

especially in the key industrial cluster sector. A series of plans, policies to

promote TVET reform and development were made and funds input on TVET

were intensified. Even though, there is an urgent need to introduce loans and

knowledge from international financial institutes to build and improve its both

hardware and software. Through the use of such loan, Yunnan would also

explore the new concept, new mechanism and new approach in developing

TVET that is adaptive to Yunnan’s conditions.

With the approval of the State Council, the application of the People’s

Government of Yunnan for financing Yunnan TVET has been included into

candidate projects of the World Bank lending program in fiscal year 2012.

The World Bank has completed its identification to the proposed Project. In


YECSTD

viewing that the Project will include such construction activities as upgrading

facilities and equipment, constructing new training centers/school

buildings/laboratories, and rehabilitating existing buildings within the

campuses of 9 existing schools, according to the World Bank environmental

safeguard policy OP 4.01 on such category C project, this Environmental

Codes of Practice (ECOP) is prepared on the basis of environmental impact

assessment of the 9 participating schools individually prepared to satisfy the

domestic procedures.

1.2 Objective of this ECOP

As required by national law on environmental impact assessment on

physical construction projects, during the project preparation and feasibility

study stage, environmental impact assessment for each of the participation

school was carried out to identify potential adverse impact and propose

mitigation measures. According to the requirement of World Bank

environmental safeguard policy OP4.01, Yunnan TVET project is categorized

as “C”. Environmental Codes of Practice (ECOP) is prepared to address

construction-related impacts, especially the safety of students, disruption to

daily school and community activities, and temporary storage/relocation of

chemicals used in laboratories.

The Objective of preparing this ECOP is to define responsibility of

stakeholders in executing ECOP; to guide the planning and implementation of

the mitigation measures to be carried out by Contractor during construction,

and to guide the project owners, the participation schools (PSs) to implement

the mitigation measure to comply with existing environmental standard. It

sets out standard practices and procedures for managing the potential

negative impacts on local environment and local communities of all civil works

to be carried out under the Project. The ECOP will be included as a separate


YECSTD

3

annex in all bidding and contract documents and the environmental

supervisors will be assigned by PSs with responsibility to ensure contractors

compliance with ECOP and reporting. The Contractor will be made aware of

and commit to its obligation on environmental protection and know that cost for

implementation of the measures is part of the construction cost. It also set up

an environmental supervision mechanism during the project implementation to

ensure this ECOP will be followed.

1.3 Applicability

Having realized the importance and necessity of Yunnan TVET, it is

necessary to realize that the some potential adverse environmental impact

may be brought about, although such impact is minimal form Category C

Project. Adequate capacity, mitigation measures and ensurance of CEOP

implementation mechanism will be necessary to minimize the adverse impact

to the satisfactory of national and local governments, and WB safeguard

policies requirement.

This ECOP will be applicable to all the nine participation schools. This

ECOP is prepared on the basis of individual EIA carried out for the nine

schools involving civil work project activities to provide guidance to the key

parties (including the contractor, environmental supervisor, the project owner,

etc.) to take effective actions to mitigate the potential adverse environmental

impact.

2.2 World Bank Safeguard Policy

This ECOP is prepared to satisfy the WB safeguard requirements under

OP4.01 (EA) which requires planning, implementation, and monitoring of the

mitigation measures during construction. Although the safeguard policies

related to other safeguard policies are not triggered, the Bank requires

inclusion of “chance find” procedure into the contract to guide actions to be

carried out by contractor

3． Institutional Arrangement to Execute ECOP

3.1 Project Implementation Arrangement

To ensure the smooth progress of the Project, it is proposed that the

participation schools take responsibility to manage their own sub-project

activities under unified coordination by Provincial Project Management Office

(PPMO), under the leadership and instruction of YDRC, YNDOF, and YPED, a

PPMO has been established under Yunnan Provincial Education Department

(YPED). The PPMO will be responsible for daily overall management of the

Project.

The nine participation schools will also establish its local project

management office with similar structure as PPMO. The PMOs of PSs will be

under the coordination of PPMO, responsible for managing all issues related to

the respected school and contact with the county/city government agencies

where the school are located and its administration agencies.

3.2 Institutional Framework for Environmental Management

Under above-mentioned institutional arrangement, to execute this ECOP,

an environmental management organizational structure is proposed as shown


YECSTD

in figure 3-2 , which takes PPMO, PO/PS and their technical consultants, ES

as internal management agencies, and local EPBs, external monitoring station

as external regulatory agencies. It is also proposed that the main project

stakeholders should designate staff to be responsible for environmental

management.

4． General Requirement of ECOP

In the project implementation phase, contractors will play key role in

environmental management, pollution control, mitigation measures at the

construction sites. To implement ECOP, this chapter sets out the general

requirements that are applicable to the main agencies related to construction

environmental management. Contractors will be required to implement various

environmental protection measures under the coordination of PSs and ESs.

4.1 Environmental Protection Measures to be incorporated into

Design Drawings and Bidding Document

In the project implementation phase, civil works will be procured and

implemented in accordance with the WB procurement guideline. The PSs

under the coordination and guidance of PPMO, should make sure that

tendering agencies and DIs have incorporated environmental mitigation

measures proposed by EIAs into the respective bidding document and design

drawings. In the bidding document, the bidders will be required to respond to

following environmental management requirement that would be included into

The civil work contracts:

Each Contractor should designate 1～2 full-time staff as EMC(s) to be

responsible for the implementation of environmental

protection/mitigation measures to ensure that its or its

sub-contractor’s (if any) construction activities are compliance with

ECOP’s requirements and all necessary environmental

protection/mitigation measures are well taken.

During construction, contractors must communicate and consult with

local people in project area, and keep them informed of the specific


YECSTD

11

activities and during of construction. The contractor should also set up

hotline to receive public’s inquiring, comments and suggestion.

Contractors should actively cooperate with environmental monitoring

team and ESs to be entrusted by PSs

Before the construction commencement order to be issued by ES,

contractor should prepare its “site EMP” and incorporate it into its

construction scheme.

If construction activities are scheduled during school term period,

contractor should consult with school administration department to

define appropriate construction time to avoid impact on during school

time

Contractor should strictly follow regulations on safety and honorable

construction.

Contractors and construction supervision engineer are required to be

trained on environmental protection and management before

construction

If environmental accident occurs due to nonconformity with mitigation

measures, ES and EMC should inform PS within 24 hours. The PS,

local government, or EBP will immediately order contractor to take

remediation action. The contractor should keep record of such

remediation and report to PS.

The Project owner, the PS will retain a proportion (around 3%) of

contract value as deposit for the fulfillment of environmental protection

assignment.

4.2 Environmental Readiness before Construction

After the bid are awarded and before construction commencement, each

PS should, under the coordination and guidance of PPMO provide copies of


YECSTD

12

results of each EIA, including EIA reports and their approval document to

contractors. Contractors should conduct field environmental investigation to

verify EIA results and indentify environmental limit factors and develop the “site

EMP as required in the contract. Information to be included into the site EMP is

shown in annex 2 of this ECOP. In addition if new environmental sensitive

issues are identified, corresponding mitigation measures should also be

proposed and included in contractors site EMP. No construction should be

commenced until the approval of ES on site EMP.

4.3 Environmental Management for Construction Site

During civil works construction, environmental supervisors to be

entrusted by each PS will take environmental management supervision

responsibility throughout the entire construction period to oversee contractors’

action on implementation of ECOP according to contract requirement on

environmental management and contractors site EMP approved by ES. In

the mean time, contractors’ environmental behaviors will be subject to external

supervision from local EPBs, faculties & students in campus and neighboring

communicates.

4.3.1 Environmental Management Supervision throughout the

construction.

Environmental supervisors will undertake following tasks:

To supervise the contractor’s actives related to land occupation,

resettlement to ensure the compliance with environmental protection

requirement and objectives; be responsible for coordination with land

management agency, resettlement agency, and environmental

protection agency.


YECSTD

13

To supervise and guide the day-to-day environmental behaviors of

contractor to ensure the compliance with this ECOP requirement.

To review and approve contractor’s site EMP.

To develop ES’s environmental monitoring plan and implement such

plan.

To keep monitoring and records of measures taken by contractor to

avoid and mitigate potential negative impact on environment.

To supervise contractor’s construction activities to ensure the

compliance with this ECOP.

To review and analyze environmental monitoring report prepared by

contractor, conduct ES’s independent site environmental monitoring if

necessary.

To investigate the cases of adverse impact events or complaints from

school teachers & students and local communities due to contractor’s

non-compliance with relevant environmental regulation and ECOP.

Communicate with local EBP about its investigation on the cases to

seek appropriate solution. In the mean time, issue notice sheet for

correction actions to be taken by contractors(shown in Annex 3 of this

ECOP).

To stop contractors from environmental offensive activities.

To provide on-the-job trainings to contractors on environmental

protection to avoid and mitigate potential negative impact on

environment and on local communities.

To conduct periodic monitoring on contractors’ implementation of this

ECOP and keep frequent record of environmental inspection checklist

(shown in Annex 1 of this ECOP) and incorporate such checklist

record into its regular “Environmental Supervision Report”.


YECSTD

14

4.3.2 EPB’s Regulatory and Publics’ Argumentation

During construction, contractors should cooperate closely with local

relevant agencies to ensure the compliance with government policies and

regulations. Contractors should disclose sufficient information to people to be

affected, especially those information on construction activities potentially

affecting public interests and securities, affecting sensitive zones, temporary

stockpile, and so on. Local EBPs may selectively examine environmental

behaviors of contractors. Local EPBs may receive and review the site

“Environmental Supervision Report” from PSs or ESs and administrate any

environmental issue raised from “Environmental Supervision Report” and take

responsive measures if abnormal environmental accident occurs. .

All the civil works will be constructed within designated school campuses,

faculties & students and communities around the campuses might be the first

ones to test environmental adverse impact, if any. Contractors should place

posters, including estimated duration of construction impact, easily visible by

faculties & students and communities around the campuses. Contractors

should offer transparent approaches for public to participate, such as hot lines,

website, forum etc. to receive public consultation, suggestions and complaints.

The hotline conversations should be recorded. Prompt reaction to public

arguments should be made by contractors under supervision of ESs.

5． Mitigation Measures and Management during Construction.

As the key component of this ECOP, this chapter provide guidance to

contractors to meet the very essential requirements on taking mitigation

measures to protect environment. The measures include construction site

clearance, environmental-friendly management of school campuses, health

safeguard, prevention and control over air and water pollution and soil erosion,

solid waste management, disruption minimization, limitation on or prohibition to

activities to protection environment, actions to be taken to protect cultural relics

chance found, corrections to be taken by contractors on non-compliance and

to response to public complaints，as well as environmental monitoring and

management measures to ensure environmental quality.

5.1 Management on Construction Sites

This section summarizes requirements on site environmental

management, including site layout, working hours, stockpiling of construction

materials and equipment, contractors vehicle management. Contractors

should comply with Environmental management regulations promulgated by

local EBPs and inspected frequently by environmental supervisors.

Essential Measures to mitigate potential environmental negative impact

are as follows:

（1）Construction Working Hours

Construction working hours are to be 8：00～20：00. At the mid day time

from 12：00～14：00 for lunch break, construction should be suspended. Time

for vehicles drive in and out should comply with local government’s

requirement. Construction activity during nighttime would be restricted. If


YECSTD

16

nighttime construction is really unavoidable, permit should be obtained and

announcement should be made to school and peoples to be affected in

advance. Mitigation measures should be adopted to minimize impact on

residents.

(2) Layout of Construction Camp Site

Construction workers would be better to rent school residence as camp

site. There would be only need to install contractor’s office, building materials

storehouse, processing workshop which are far away from teaching zones and

residential zones. Construction workers should use school lavatories rather

than install their own ones.

(3) Borrow Pits

Legal borrow pits designated by local EPBs should be used during

construction, rather than establish the new one.

(4) Prevention of Accidental Risks

Contractors should develop emergency preparedness in advance;

designate its special staff responsible to response to the emergency. Once

the accident occurs, implement its emergency preparedness actions or seek

additional assistance immediately.

(5) People’s Safety and Health

The construction site should be fenced with traffic signs and guardrails to

protect school faculties and students. Contractors should designate its staff

to lead the traffic during on-school and off-school hours. Construction workers

will be trained on safety and forced to be equipped with personnel safeguards.

If materials containing asbestos or toxicant are to be tear down, they should be

handled by workers specially well trained. All construction activities should

be suspended upon heavy storm or emergent cases.

(6) The laboratory reconstruction for Yunnan Forestry Technological


YECSTD

17

College involves relocation of experimental chemicals and toxicants. Yunnan

Qujing Agricultural School involves the storage of toxicants. Risks are

foreseeable from such storage and relocation. It is required that during

laboratory relocation, the college, the contractor, the environmental supervisor

should designate their respective staff responsible for the storage and

relocation. All toxicants must be registered one by one and be relocated to

the appropriate places satisfactory to safety needs and be stored in a

satisfactory manner. During laboratory relocation, all chemicals toxicants,

together with their packages labeled significantly. Relocation and storage of

toxicants must follow strictly the requirements stipulated in the national “Safety

Management Regulations on Hazard Chemicals” and be handled by qualified

agencies. Spill kits / sand / saw dust used for absorbing chemical spillage

should be prepared and readily accessible in the storage place or during

relocation.

5.2 Environmental Quality Management

In order to minimize construction impact on environmental quality,

following mitigation measures should be taken:

(1) Ambient Air

The construction sites should be fenced to reduce impact on ambient air

quality. Dedusting measures, such as watering, etc. should be applied at

earthwork site. Vehicles cleansing facilities should be installed at entrance and

exits of the construction sites. Vehicles should be cleaned of dirt before

leaving the construction sites. Hauling vehicles that are easily generating

dust should be covered with tents. Building materials and shuttering boxes

should be stored on flat and stable ground. Cement and dusty materials that

easily generate fly dust should be placed in obturator or covered with tents.

Commercial concrete are encouraged. The construction site should be


YECSTD

18

regularly cleaned and watered. Fuel-powered machines and vehicles can only

be used at normal operation conditions to ensure their exhaust gas comply

with emission standards.

Wastes incinerations are prohibited.

(2) Water Environment

During construction, contractors are requested to design its wastewater

treatment and discharging approaches to comply with standard. Any illegal

discharging of untreated wastewater into environment or inundate municipal

establishments would be prohibited. Contractor workers are to use existing

school refectories and lavatories. Temporary sedimentation tanks are to be

installed at construction sites to treat slurry, wastewater from concrete

maintenance, other construction wastewater, stormwater mixed with silt .

After slurry sedimentation, water from sedimentation tanks can be used for site

watering for dedusting. The rest of wastewaters can be discharged into the

existing school sewer system.

（3）Acoustic Environment

Contractors should comply with local regulations on noise control, arrange

appropriate working hours, and restrict operation hours that are locally

sensitive. Quite equipment should be used as much as possible. Sound

and vibration reduction or insulation facilities should be installed if necessary.

Construction equipment should be well-maintained to keep in good operation

conditions, so as to minimize mechanical noise impact.

Contractors should follow its site monitoring program to monitor noise

levels at the construction site and the point of environmental concerns from

time to time and adjust its construction schedule or take mitigation measures

based on monitoring results.

(4) Solid Waste Management

Wastes should be properly piled up, sorted and recycled as much as

possible. Non-reusable waste should be disposed of at permitted disposal

sites.

(5) Eco-Environment Protection and Erosion Control

At the pre-conditions of construction safeguard quality and quantity,

construction occupation duration should be shortened as much as possible.

Earthwork duration should be controlled. Excavation and backfilling slope


YECSTD

20

should be kept stable to reduce interruption on exterior. More attention

should be paid on rational construction site management during raining

season. Once the construction is completed, re-vegetation or re-cultivation

should be made promptly. Trees that are not necessarily felled in the

construction sites should be protected. Once temporary land occupation for

construction is completed, the land should be cleared, leveled and recovered

with original vegetation. Intercepting ditches should be prepared in the

construction site to channelize surface runoff outside so to reduce site erosion

by runoff.

(6) Cultural Relics Conservation

Surveys during project preparation suggested that there are no cultural

heritage sites in the construction sites. However, if there is any chance found

cultural relics or articles suspected to be cultural relics, the site should be

promptly protected and reported to local agencies responsible for cultural relic

administration. Construction activities cannot be resumed until the sites are

handled by cultural relic administration agencies.

5.3 Environmental Monitoring Program

During construction, with good environmental supervision, contractors will

conduct their internal environmental monitoring as defined in their site EMP.

In addition, following external environmental monitoring are also proposed.

(1) Public health monitoring—applicable to the nine participating schools.

Annex 2 Outlines of Contractors Site EMP

Immediately after the contract is awarded, Site Environmental

Management Plan (SEMP) is to be developed by contractors, to take specific

measures that are response to the ECOP against potential environmental

negative impacts, including environmental-friendly management of

construction sites, employment, health and safety, transportation and traffic,

control over noise, vibration, fly dust, air pollution, solid waste disposal and

reuses, water quality protection, natural and eco-environment conservation,

cultural relics conservation, construction workers camp management,

environmental quality monitoring, Protection of Archaeology, Protection of

Natural Habitats, etc. Contractors’ SEMP will be subject to ESs’ review and

approval. During Construction, Contractors will be supervised by

environmental supervisors who will take day-to-day environmental inspection.

Once ES issue notice sheet for correction, contractors should take prompt

responsive actions to ensure construction activities in every step to comply

with this ECOP.

The Site EMP shall include, but not limited to, following contents:

1. Briefs of the Contract Works

2. Environmental Features of the Construction Site

3. Objectives of Site Environmental Management

4. Institutional Management on Environmental Protection

5. Environmental Protection Issue, Avoidance on Interruption to Peoples,

Honorable and Safe Construction Measures


YECSTD

This section will address issues on

- water - Air - solid waste (construction debris/demolishing waste) disposal and

reuse - vibration. - camps management, - monitoring during construction, - etc.

6. Mitigation Measures and Objectives

As the core of this ECOP, the objective is to minimize the potential

negative impacts during construction on local environment, local community,

and human and environmental safety and disturbance. The Contractor is

expected to implement the activities in line with the following approach as

much as possible in close consultation with ESs. Key approaches include, but

not limited, to:

- Minimize impacts and restore damages; - Replanting trees in project areas; - Control erosion and sedimentation during construction; - Proper control of runoff and erosion from acid sulphate soil (ASS) and

contaminated sediments through special protection and management;

- Use main roads when possible; - Heavy traffic restrictions; - Control (collection, disposal) of wastes (solid and liquid); - Minimize disturbance to local population; Frequent meetings with local

people and provision of timely and adequate information to the project affected peoples (PAPs) so that their living and production conditions could be managed;

- Engage and provide labour opportunity for local population; - Application of proper safety and warning measures in the construction

sites, especially in dredging canals;
