Executive Summary 1. Introduction

Madhya Pradesh (MP) is geographically second largest, fifth populous, and eighth most

urbanized state in India. Although MP recorded a higher rate of growth for its urban

compared to rural population in the last decade, its urbanization rate is still below the

national average population but it is projected to catch-up in the next 15 years. As per

Census 2011, MP’s total urban population is 20.1 million (28% of total population)

concentrated in 476 census urban centres.

Rapid urbanization in MP has seen sprouting of new urban settlements across the state,

more often close to the existing cities. The last decade (2001-2011) has seen 20% increases

in the number of urban centers, including 50% increase in census towns, compared to 6%

increase in the previous decade (1991-2001). In the cities MP, household access to piped

water supply ranges between 48-80%; per capita water supply ranges between 35 to 135

lpcd; access to underground sewerage range between nil to 40%; waste collection ranges

between 85-90%; and 60 to 80% of rainwater runoff is effectively drained.

Government of Madhya Pradesh through its Vision Document 2018 has shown its

determination to face the challenges of Urbanization and has undertaken many programs to

support the urban infrastructure. Madhya Pradesh Urban Development Project (MPUDP) is

one of them which envisages financial support from The World Bank for the various sub

projects of Water Supply, Waste Water Management and Heritage Conservation etc.

2. Subproject Description

Chhindwara town is the administrative headquarters of Chhindwara District under the

Jabalpur Administration Division of Madhya Pradesh. It is the largest city in the district.

The population of Chhindwara city was 138,291 (2011 census) and the Municipal area was

about 11.33 sq. km. Vide Urban Administration and Environment Department, Government

of Madhya Pradesh notification 28 F 1-14 /2014/18-3 dated 05.09.2014, the municipal limits

were increased andadjoining 24 villages were merged in it. The area of these 24 villages is

98.94 sq. km and population of these villages (census 2011) is 77,552. Thus, the new

municipal area of Chhindwara town is 110.27 sq. km and population as per 2011 census is

2,15,843. Chhindwara has no sewerage system. The generated effluent from septic tanks

and even raw sewage is flowing directly in the River Kulbehra through open drains and the

tributaries of Kulbehra River.

The intent of the Sewerage sub-project is to ensure a comprehensive, technically and

financially viable system for Sewerage collection and its treatment for the core area of

Chhindwara town i.e. Core city plus the adjoining 7 villages only. The water supply project

at 135 lpcd for old CMC area is commissioned recently. Availability of 135 lpcd with

almost 100% Household connections in the core area has resulted in increased waste water

generation in core area.

Availability of water supply in the remaining area is less than 70 lpcd. The Urban Local

Body has implemented Water Supply augmentation scheme through AMRUT for this

sparsely populated area. Due to topography and sparse distribution of the habitations,


viii | P a g e

providing sewerage network in the whole CMC area is technically and financially unviable.

Hence, the DPR envisaged coverage of the core CMC area and 7 villages adjacent to the

city, with sewer network along with Sewage Treatment facility whereas, the sewage

generated in remaining17 villages spread over more than 80% of the CMC area is proposed

to be managed through “Septage Management” system supported with 4 Bio Digesters.

The contract for the Sewerage sub project at Chhindwara has been awarded to M/s Laxmi

Civil Engineering Services Pvt. Ltd., Kolhapur on 21st July 2017. The present ESA is

submitted by the contractor whichis based on the designs finalized after detailed review

based on detailed topographical surveys, geo-technical investigations, joint inspection of

sites and network alignment, Enviro-social impact assessment and stakeholder

consultations. Table-1.1 below compares the provisions of DPR versus final designs.

For sewage collection the project area has been divided into two zones based on the basis of

physical barriers and topography. Projected population of Zone 1 in the year 2048 is

115,020 while in Zone 2 it is 175,899. Considering the techno economics of material, pipes

of 150 to 300 mm diameter has been proposed of DWC and above 300 mm and up to 1000

mm of NP-3 concrete pipe. The minimum cover taken is 1.0 m. Total sewer network length

is 302.374 km; out of which more than 90% of the pipes range from 150 mm to 250 mm.

The maximum diameter of pipe is 1000 mm and maximum depth is 4.8 m. Manholes are

provided at every 30 m length, change in alignment and wherever required in the design as

per the requirement of site. Flushing points, where velocity of the sewerage is less than the

self - cleaning velocity have been identified and flushing is proposed. Further the flow up to

SPS at Koladhana shall be through gravity. From SPS it will be pumped to STP at Village

Sarra by 2500 m long pumping main of DI K-9 of 700 mm dia.

The Sludge generated from the STP will be withdrawn from centrifuge in the form of wet

cake and will be collected on the sludge collection yard as sludge drying bed as well as

storage of sludge. The sludge collection bed will be designed with required capacity to

accumulate the sludge for seven days. The physical and chemical characteristic of sludge

will be checked in the Laboratory accredited by NABL. The dewatering of sludge will be

done by the treatment with polyelectrolyte. The sludge will be covered properly and

covering aid to avoid contamination of surrounding environment as well as other

environmental, health and safety precaution will be ensured during sludge transportation

through authorized vehicle to the disposal site at Khasra no. 14/5 at village Salimeta, tehsil

Malikheda Dsitrict Chhindwara. The proposed site is 7.4 km from the STP site which is

temporary arrangement in future it will be developed as sanitary landfill.

Initially as per the final DPR, the proposed location of STP was at Koladhana near Bodri

Nallah in ward no. 33 at Khasra 678 having an area of 1.8 hectares. However, while making

detailed investigations at site, it was found that although the land was free of encumbrances

and encroachments but due to excessive soil cutting by locals in the course of time between

finalization of DPR and start of work, most of the land parcel selected came under

submergence of Bodhri Nallah which carries heavy storm water during rains. After Joint

field verification by the PIU and PMC and studying various options for the STP, alternate

site at Sarra in ward no 35 at Khasra no 126, 128 and 129 having an area of 2.851 hectare


ix | P a g e

was selected. The selected site for STP at Sarra is “Shrub Forest” as per revenue records,

under the possession of Forest Department. Fee required by Forest Department has been

deposited by MPUDC for second stage permission from the Forest Department. This is

further added here that the site at Koladhana had ample elevated area available for MPS and

hence, it was decided not to shift the location of Main Pumping Station. Another factor

which helped in arriving at this decision was that with the changed alignment of network,

the IPS at Bail Bazar (proposed in DPR) will be avoided which will further beneficial to the

CMC as the recurring cost of O&M will reduce.

Changes from DPR & approved design are given in table 1.1.

3. Environment and Social Assessment

This report presents the Environmental and Social Assessment (ESA) of Chhindwara

Sewerage subproject under MPUDP. The ESA identifies potential impacts on the natural

environment and the social situation in subproject region during construction and operation

of the sub project. Where potential adverse effects are predicted, mitigations are developed

and its implementation is presented in the Environmental and Social Management Plan

(ESMP) and Environmental Monitoring Plan (EMP)/Social Monitoring Plan (SMP).

This project has been identified as Category Ea project in accordance to the ESMF

classification for environmental assessment. This requires an EA report and an

Environmental Management Plan. Also, according to ESMF classification for SA, this sub

project is identified as a Category Sc (appendix 1). It should be noted that these

categorizations refer to categorization of MPUDP subprojects as stated in the ESMF for

MPUDP, and should not be confused with the classification of overall Projects given in OP

4.01 of The World Bank. As per safeguard policies of the World Bank, MPUDP has been

categorized as a Category A project. Public consultations are required to implement the

proposed Environmental and Social Management Plan.

➢ STP capacity 28 .0 MLD.

➢ Proposed site 648.38m GL

and HFL 642.021m

➢ Sufficient area available for

STP construction.

Major part of the land identified for STP

(in the DPR) at Koladhana was found

under submergence of Bodri Nallah

flowing adjacent to this site. Therefore,

it was decided to change the site for

STP. After joint verification by PMU,

PIU, IVT, ULB and the contractor,

alternative suitable site at Village Sarra

was identified and selected.

2 SPS Two Sewage Pumping station (SPS)

was proposed in the following sites:

-SPS Zone 1 - SPS-1 is in Khasra

No. 991 at Bail Bazar, Land

available 4.45 ha,

SPS Zone 2- SPS-2 (MPS) near

Bodri Nallah, Koladhana Khasra no

678 Ward no 33 at the same

location of STP site. This is also the

MPS

➢ MPS - ward no. 33 at Khasra

No. 678 near Bodri Nallah,

Koladhana having available

area of 1.8 ha against a

requirement of 0.005 ha.

➢ Designed capacity of MPS is

28 MLD

➢ Average GL of the proposed

site is 648.88m against the

HFL 648.38m

Based on the topographic survey, design

of the network and change of STP site,

the sewage from Zone 1 can be taken

through gravity flow to MPS and hence,

SPS-1 site at Bail Bazar is no more

required. This will decrease the recurring

expenditure (specially expenses on

Energy) during O&M.

5. Baseline Environment Profile

There are no National Parks, Wild life sanctuaries, Bird sanctuaries within 10 Km radius of

the project area, besides, there are no rare and endangered species observed in the area.

A) Geography:

Chhindwara is one of the largest cities in the Satpura range. It is on a plateau, surrounded

by lush green fields, rivers and by dense forest with diverse flora and fauna. The town is

built around the Bodri Stream (Nallah), which is also considered a tributary of Kulbehra

River.

B) Meteorology:

Chhindwara has a sub-tropical climate. A hot summer and general dryness characterize the

climate of the area, except during the southwest monsoon season. The mean maximum and

mean minimum temperature as recorded in Chhindwara is respectively 44°C and 9.8°C.

The relative humidity generally exceeds 87% in the month of August and the rest of the

year is drier. The mean annual rainfall in the region is 1,183mm.

C) Topography:

The northern part of the Chhindwara city is hilly. Natural Slope of the CMC area is north

to south with the levels with reference to MSL varying from 695 m to 644m. In the eastern

part of the City, the topography is sloped towards the Bodri Nallah and in the southern side

towards Kulbehra River (which flows from South to East of the City).

D) Geology:

Physiographically the Chhindwara district is divided broadly into main geomorphic units-

i) Satpura plateau and ii) Nagpur plateau. The hill ranges lying in the northern part of the

district belong to the Mahadeo hill ranges of the Satpura mountains stretching nearly east

west. These hills form the water divide. The district can be further divided into four parts.

I) Northern hilly region, II). Central high plateau region III). Southern low grounds IV).

Upland trough of Jam and Kanhan rivers. Presence of fluvial units showing occurrences of

alluvium in the flood plains of all major streams and rivers, buried Pedi plains showing

denudational hills of sandstone as seen in western part of the district. Similarly, structural

hills, covered by Gondwana’s, are seen in northern part, denudational hills in southern part

and dissected Deccan plateau in eastern and north-eastern parts of the district the soils in

the district are generally three types Viz., black cotton soil, sandy loam soil and clay loam

soils. Seismicity, the area falls under BIS zone-III as per seismic map of geographical

survey of India.

Air Quality:

Madhya Pradesh pollution control board has two air quality monitoring station in

Chhindwara. The air quality trends reveal that SO2 and NO2 concentration levels are low;

whereas particulate pollution has reached moderate condition.

Water Quality:

The EC value of water sample ranges between 280-1600. Nitrate Value of water samples

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satpura_range

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kulbehra_River

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kulbehra_River


xiii | P a g e

ranges between 1-243 and fluoride between. 09 to 0.97 in phreatic aquifer. Ground water in

phreatic aquifer is potable but excessive fluoride (1.60-20.00Mg/l) is noticed in deeper

aquifers.

In order to measure the baseline level of existing water quality and probable pollution in the

storm water drain (STP outfall, receiving water body) nearby STP site, Sarra, Biological

oxygen demand (BOD) and Chemical oxygen demand (COD), pH, TSS etc. were tested. The

BOD is 3.4 mg/l, COD 3.4 mg/l, pH 6.9, total suspended solids 28mg/l, total dissolved solid

729 mg/l, total hardness (CACO3) 516 mg/l and turbidity 9.9 NTU were observed. This is

once again reiterated here that this drain is only storm water drain carrying rain water during

rainy period only and remains dry during remaining year.

Flora and Fauna:

Common trees include Shorea robusta (Sal), Sarai, Babul, Diospyros melanoxylon

(Kendu), Boswellia serrata (Salai), Terminalia tomentosa (Asan), Terminalia bellayoica

(Bahera), Terminalia arjuna (Arjun), Pterocarpus marsupium (Paisar), Madhuca indica

(Mahua) are found the project area. The fauna reported in the area are mainly avi fauna

(highest diversity) followed by mammals and reptiles. The commonly reported avifauna

in the study area are Common crow, Myna, Babbler, Pigeon, Cattle, Egrets, Red Vented

bulbul, Sparrow, Indian Roller etc.

6. Assessment of Anticipated Impacts

Anticipated impacts and corresponding mitigation measures are discussed in phases

namely, influence area and general impacts. Based on the magnitude and duration of the

project activities, the nature, duration and extent of impact are assessed. Minor project

impacts have also been identified and basis for their insignificance has been provided.

Wherever relevant, the ESMP also addresses the minor impacts and provides

environmental and social mitigation / environmental enhancement measures. Possible

Environmental and Social Impacts during Design Phase, Construction Phase and Operation

Phase has been identified and mitigations during these phases have been suggested.

Various environmental and social impacts identified include - air pollution due to dust and

noise pollution during construction, disposal of waste produced due to excavation

activities, loss of vegetation, temporary loss of access to residents and temporary disruption

to traffic; etc.

Stakeholder consultations have been done to assess the social impacts of various

construction works specially the network laying since this activity will take place within the

town area comprising of purely residential, commercial and mixed activities and will have a

direct impact on the street vendors. Sites for construction of STP and MPS are away from

habitat. Both the sites are free from encroachments and encumbrances. The alignment of

network has been designed in such a manner that no permanent or temporary resettlement or

relocation is needed. Temporary shifting ( 2 to 3 days) of street vendors in commercial areas

may be caused during pipe laying but the same has been mitigated and measures have been

included in the ESMP. Mitigation measures include shifting of temporary vendors across the

road, placing planks at 50m interval over excavated areas minimizing the blockage of access

to shops and residences by the contractor, avoiding laying of network during weekly market


xiv | P a g e

days etc. However, this is clarified here that there is no demolition of any temporary or

permanent structure involved/observed during network laying. There is no loss of

livelihood (permanent or temporary ) is observed. The joint survey has been conducted by

the PIU, PMC & contractor, as per the survey, No potential damage has been observed to

any structure. Therefore, it is not possible to calculate or assess.

In the operation and maintenance phase, main impact will be from the sludge generation

perspective. But these impacts shall be mitigated by the usage of covered trucks and

experienced & trained staff to handle the sludge which will be finally transported to the

sludge disposal site at Khasra No. 14/5, Village Salimeta, Tehsil Mohkheda, District

Chhindwara. Photographs are enclosed at Appendix 8.

7. Stakeholders and Public Consultation

The main objective for the consultation process was to involve the community at the very

early stages so as to identify likely negative impacts and find ways to minimize negative

impacts and enhance positive impacts of the project. Extensive public consultation

meetings at Chhindwara Sewerage Sub Project area were conducted while undertaking e

ESA study and then C-ESA updation.

Public sensitization and meetings were held within the project area from 28thApril 2016 to

30th April 2016 (consultation report already submitted to World Bank with ESA report

prepared by the ESA consultant) and then from 23rd July 2018 to 24th July 2018 by the

contractor with the help of respective PIU, ULB, local administration and the elected

representatives. A total of 13 meetings during ESA preparation phase and 12 consultation

meetings were held during execution as shown in Table 6.1A and 6.1B. Key outputs of

consultations have been taken into consideration and suggested changes in the design and

implementation activities.

Key issues discussed included: absence of sewerage system in the town, sludge and

stagnant pools of water in the entire town is visibly disturbing and leading to pollution and

mosquito menace, causing many health problems; Physical relocation and resettlement

should be minimized and efforts should be made to prevent loss of access to livelihood

activities; safety of children, women and cattle are important aspects for consideration

during civil construction works; restoration of roads after laying of pipe, job opportunity

during construction work as casual labour or at office.

8. Environmental and Social Management Plan (ESMP)

The ESMP summarizes the key impact elements identified and the remedial measures, the

actions to be taken by various parties and the monitoring activities. The ESMP has been

updated based on the approved design of the contractor. The management plan includes

mitigation measures against air pollution including dust and vehicle emissions, noise

barriers, assuring access to the residents and shops during laying of distribution network,

safety measures such as barricading and signage, ensuring disposing off the excess

excavated material, minimizing and avoiding the loss of flora and fauna, worker's safety

etc. during construction phase. Due care has been taken in the management plan to address


xv | P a g e

temporary disruption to neighboring structures during excavation, minimize temporary

shifting of street vendors during network laying and the loss of income due to obstruction

of access to commercial establishment owing to temporary blocking of lanes. Air and

Water Quality Monitoring Protocol has also been given in the management plan. The total

cost of the ESMP has been estimated as INR 1.43Crore. Cost for most of the works such as

air and water monitoring, mitigation against dust, disposal of excess excavated material has

been included in the contract cost. However, provisional sums for unidentified issues that

may crop up during construction phase have been provided in the contract. The

effectiveness of the ESMP shall be monitored and assessed through spot checks. ESHS

audit of the works shall be carried out by the independent third-party audit firms.

Environmental and social risk due to change of land of STP and increase in length of sewer

network have been evaluated and detailed under chapter 5 ”Assesment of anticipated

impacts” and chapter 7 “ESMP”. Change of STP site has led to the requirement of forest

clearance at alternate site at Sarra and compensatory afforestation (to be done by Forest

Department and cost to be borne under this project). First stage clearance from Forest

Department has been obtained and the requisite fees for second stage clearance including

compensatory afforestation and impact mitigation activities has been deposited to the forest

department and also alternative land has been provided by the District Authorities for equal

afforestation. As far as social risks are concerned, there are insignificant risks involved

because this change neither involves any acquisition of private land nor does it adversely

impact any livelihood nor needs any relocation/resettlement. Public consultations were

done for creating public awareness in the project area and this in turn helped to avoid and

mitigate the social risk and impacts arising due to change of site.

9. Monitoring and Evaluation

Monitoring and evaluation process will involve the assessment of the following benchmarks

a) The implementation process of guidelines stipulated in the ESMP

b) Evaluate impact of the project to the environment and social setting of

Chhindwara Town

c) Monitoring of the involvement of the community through public consultations in

decision makings and the implementation of the project

10. Tribal and Vulnerable Population Identification and Assessment of Chhindwara

In Madhya Pradesh certain areas have been declared as scheduled area as specified

by the Scheduled Areas under the fifth Schedule of Indian Constitution. Some areas

of Chhindwara district are declared scheduled area in Schedule V by Government of

Madhya Pradesh. However, this does not include Chhindwara town and the project

area. However, social impact screening and assessment was done for the tribal

population in Chhindwara town and no negative impacts due to the project were

identified on tribal people. On the basis of identification, assessment and prior

informed consultations it was found that OP/BP 4.10 does not trigger as these


xvi | P a g e

groups are living in dispersed manner mixed with the general population of the town

and do not form a distinct group in the town, neither do they have any separate

cultural, economic, social, or political institutions. Though tribal have dialect of

their own, however, they are well versed with local Hindi language. No negative

impact on tribal and vulnerable population has been assessed, thus, no separate

IPP/TVDP is prepared.

11. Grievance Redress Mechanism

A grievance redress mechanism is formed at city level which included formulation

of a Grievance Redressal Committee consisting of an Elected Representative

(preferably female), a person who is publicly known and accepted by the locals to

speak on their behalf (to be identified by the Elected Representatives of the CMC),

Community Development officer from PIU and CMC level community organizer.

The proposed GRC has been constituted at PIU level vide order dated 05.07.2018

and is functional.

As most of the grievances may arise due to the construction and O&M activities of

the contractor, role of the contractor in resolving the grievances is specified in

relevant section and is limited to the rectifications required within the time as

stipulated by the GRC mechanism. The Contractor has adequate mechanisms to

ensure that any complaint received by the contractor is recorded, addressed (if it is

within the scope of the contractor to address the same), information forwarded to the

GRC through PIU, etc. and complaint is closed.

12. Conclusion and Recommendations

The environment and social analysis of proposed sub-project for Chhindwara City

concludes that the project has overall positive impacts on the life and health of the

people and overall environment of the town.. There are no archeological and

historical protected/recognised areas/ sites within the project boundary. Neither any

National Park/ Wild life sanctuary/ Bird sanctuaries exist within 10 Km radius of the

project area, nor any rare and endangered species is observed in the area.

There are changes in the final designs and sites with respect to the DPR, however,

Environmental and social risks arising due to these changes, have been identified

and analysed. The type of work remains the same and hence, most of the risks also

remain the same as for the risks identified in the ESA already approved by The

World Bank. The network length has increased by appx 13% of the original

quantity, however, the kind of work included is same for the whole length. The

network laying is within the RoW.

The alternate site at Village Sarra selected for STP has same features as the original

site at Koladhana had i.e. both are near a nallah, however, the Bodari Nallah at

Koladhana carries has much more catchment compared to nallah near the STP site at

Sarra & thus, this site at Village Sarra is safer for construction of STP. The STP site


xvii | P a g e

selected at Village Sarra is on Forest Land (Shrub Forest) and needs diversion from

Forest Department for which the process is already started and first stage clearance

is obtained. Fee for second stage permission has been deposited by MPUDC on

dated 10th and 11th February, 2020. This land is away from human settlement & free

from encumbrances & encroachments.

Main Pumping Station will be constructed at its originally selected location at

Koladhana. Alignment for network laying has been decided in such a manner that

all the sewage will flow through gravity to MPS and hence, IPS at Bail Bazar is not

required. This change brings a positive impact from environment, social as well as

economic point of view.

The impact identified are mostly related to construction and operation phase which

will be insignificant.

No land acquisition is required, also no permanent or temporary adverse impacts on

assets and livelihood is anticipated, hence no RAP is required as per ESMF. Only

minor damage to road side chabutarahs (Plateform -a civil structure where local

residens sitout and enjoy their leisure time) may occur during laying of network,

repairing of which is included in contractor’s scope of work and funds required for

such activities are included in the provisional sum under the contract. Loss of

income for certain days to street vendors at certain locations may occur during

construction phase however mitigation measures have been designed in a manner so

that any negative impact on the daily income of the street vendors is avoided. The

mitigation measures include shifting of street vendors across (on the opposite side)

the road and laying network in small stretches of 250m. Mitigation measures to

ensure access to residents and shops have also been proposed.

In Project area, no indigenous people are identified meeting the requirement of

indigenous people’s policy and hence, no separate Indigenous Peoples Development

Plan (IPDP) is required.

1. Introduction

1.1. Project Background

Madhya Pradesh (MP) is geographically, the second largest, fifth populous, and eighth most

urbanized state in India. As per Census 2011, total urban population of MP is 20.1 million

(28% of total population) concentrated in 476 urban centers as follows: 378 municipal

bodies of which 16 are Municipal Corporations (Nagar Palika Nigams), 98 are Municipal

Councils, 264 Nagar Panchayats, and 98 Census Towns - identified as areas with urban

characteristics, but not formally notified as urban. Of the 16 Municipal Corporations, four

(Indore, Bhopal, Jabalpur, and Gwalior) are million-plus cities.

Rapid urbanization in MP has seen sprouting of new urban settlements across the state,

more often close to existing cities. The last decade (2001-2011) has seen 20% increases in

the number of urban centers, including 50% increase in census towns, compared to 6%

increase in the previous decade (1991-2001). The last decade also saw more than a quarter-

fold increase in population of the four largest urban agglomerations including Bhopal and

Indore. In the cities of MP, households’ access to piped water supply ranges between 48-

80%, per capita; water supply ranges between 35 to 150 lpcd; access to underground

sewerage range between nil to 40%; waste collection ranges between 85-90%, and 60-80%

of rainwater runoff is effectively drained.

The objective of the proposed Madhya Pradesh Urban Development Project (MPUDP)

supported by The World Bank is to enhance the capacity of relevant State-level institutions

to support ULBs in developing and financing urban infrastructure. The proposed

Chhindwara Sewerage Project is one of the subprojects under Madhya Pradesh Urban

Development project (MPUDP) funded by the GoMP and The World Bank.

1.2. Context of the Environment and Social Assessment by the contractor

This report presents an Contractor’s Environmental and Social Assessment (C-ESA) of

Chhindwara Sewerage subproject (conducted by the contractor). This ESA identifies

potential impacts on the natural environment and social aspects in Chhindwara during

construction and operation of the project. Where potential adverse effects are predicted,

mitigation has been developed and its implementation is presented in an Environmental

and Social Management Plan (ESMP) and Environmental Monitoring Plan (EMP)/Social

Monitoring Plan (SMP).

This project has been identified as Category Ea project based on the environmental

screening carried out for the project as per the Environmental and Social Management

Framework (ESMF) of MPUDP (Appendix 1). This requires an ESA report and an

Environmental and Social Management Plan. With regard to social safeguards, the project

has been classified as ‘Category Sc, because neither any land acquisition is required, nor

any permanent adverse impacts on assets and livelihood is anticipated, hence no RAP is

required as per ESMF. Only minor damage to road side properties may occur during


2 | P a g e

construction phase. Temporary shifting of the street vendors may also be required during

construction phase.

1.3. Scope of ESA study

The Environmental and Social Impact Assessment has been carried out at the planning

stages for the proposed Chhindwara Sewerage scheme to ensure that all adverse social and

environmental impacts are taken into consideration during the design, construction,

operation and decommissioning of the Project. Original ESA was prepared by independent

agency based on the DPR of the scheme and the same has been updated by the DRBO

Contractor. The scope of this C-ESA study covers:

a) Description of the proposed Project;

b) The baseline environmental and social profile of the ESA study area;

c) Provisions of the relevant environmental and social legislations;

d) Alternative analysis

e) Stakeholder consultation and public meetings,

f) Prediction of any adverse impacts to the environment and on assets and income

due to the proposed project.

g) Appropriate mitigation measures; and

h) Provision of an Environmental and Social Management Plan.

1.4. Objectives of ESA Study

The objectives of the ESA study are:

a) To fulfill National and State legal requirements and World Bank Safeguard policies.

b) To obtain background Environmental information of the sites and legal and regulatory

issues associated with the proposed Chhindwara Sewerage project;

c) To assess and predict the potential impacts during site preparation, construction and

operational phases of the proposed Project;

d) To make suggestions of possible alterations to the proposed design, based on the

assessment findings;

e) To propose mitigation measures for the potential adverse environmental and social

impacts and safety risks;

f) To allow for public participation; and prepare an ESA Report including an

Environmental and Social Management and Monitoring Plan.

1.5. Terms of Reference (ToR) for the ESA process

The ToR for this Environmental and Social Impact Assessment is based on the

requirements of OP 4.01 on Environmental Assessment of The World Bank and the

guidance provided in the ESMF for MPUDP. The Scope is given in Section 1.3 above.

a) Description of the nature of the proposed project;

b) Alternative analysis

c) The location of the project including the physical area that may be affected by the

project’s activities;

d) The activities that shall be undertaken during the project construction, O&M phase;


3 | P a g e

e) The materials to be used, products and by-products, including waste to be generated by

the project and the methods of their disposal;

f) The potential environmental impacts of the project and the mitigation measures to be

taken during and after implementation of the project;

g) An action plan for the prevention and management of possible accidents during the

project cycle

1.6. Methodology

The ESA study was carried out based on desk review, field assessments and public

consultations with the community who is likely to get benefitted from the project as well as

the potential project affected persons and relevant Government Institutions. In the course of

the assignment, potential impacts at all stages of the project during construction and O&M

in project area is evaluated against applicable environmental and social standards,

regulations and guidelines, the existing environmental conditions and issues and concerns

raised by all project stakeholders. The assessment process incorporates the following key

stages:

1.6.1 Desk Review

A desktop study was conducted to review available published and unpublished reports,

development plans and maps in order to compile relevant baseline biophysical and socio-

economic information about the study area. The biophysical information was compiled on

environmental aspects such as Topography, Climate, Soils, Water Resources, land use and

flora and wildlife resources. On the socio-economic environment, the study compiled

information on aspects such as population, sex ratio, literacy, religious composition of

town, work force participation, share of ST and SC population, Below poverty line people,

density of town, land use, housing gap and commercial activities, poverty etc.

1.6.2 Field Visits

Field visits were conducted in the study area in order to collect site-specific information on

the biophysical and socio-economic environment and to crosscheck the secondary data.

While at the site, environmental data were recorded and potential impacts identified in the

wards having high density.

1.6.3 Stakeholder Consultation

Consultation helps to develop a sense of stakeholder ownership of the project and a

realization amongst all stakeholders that their concerns are taken seriously and that the

issues raised, if relevant, will be addressed in the Environmental and Social Assessment

(ESA) process. All relevant stakeholders have been identified using the most recent and

accurate information available. The consultation process was carried out in two stages:

during the scoping and after preparation of the draft ESA. The consultation process focused

on seeking comment on key issues and concerns, identifying potential impacts and offering

the opportunity for alternatives or objections to be raised by the potentially affected parties;

non-governmental organizations, members of the public and other stakeholders. See

Appendix 5 for a) list of stakeholder’s consultations; and b) a summary of the issues and

concerns raised.


4 | P a g e

Public meetings

Public Meetings with the communities were conducted in the project area with the help of

the local administration especially the corporators and ULB officials. The selection of the

wards for the meetings was done on the basis of different categories, localities and level of

problems foreseen. The discussions during these public meetings were centered on key

emerging issues relating to the project as well as the communities. A total of 13 meetings

were held at different locations within the project from 2016-2018.

Key Informant Interviews

One-on-one interviews with government agencies and institutions in the project area were

undertaken. These interviews were conducted to augment and confirm data and

information obtained through secondary sources.

Focus Group Discussions

In total 10 focus group discussions were conducted especially with women in the fringe

areas and in slum areas of Chhindwara town were women facing open defecation

problems/having soak pit latrines. Focus groups were carried out as group meetings with

women residents during which the participants were given the possibility to discuss and

contribute to specific information. The participants in the focus groups were selected based

on their common characteristics from different communities. The focus group discussions

place particular emphasis on group dynamics, when issues of particular concern should be

addressed to explore participants’ problems, attitudes, and suggestions regarding subproject

1.6.4. Impact Assessment and Analysis

Following the identification of all project environmental aspects and potential impacts, the

level of impact that may result from each of the activity-receptor interactions were

assessed. The assessment and analyses methodologies for ESA studies are based on the

following key components of the environment in relation to the proposed Project:

a) Physical/chemical component;

b) Biological/ecological component;

c) Sociological/cultural component; and

d) Economic/operational component.

Environmental and social risk due to change of land of STP and increase in length of sewer

network have been identified and also discussed in detail under Chapter 5 - Assesment of

Anticipated Impacts and Chapter 7- ESMP. The change of STP site has led the requirement

of clearance of Forest Department since the alternate land at Village Sarra is “Shrub

Forest” belonging to Forest Department. First stage clearance has been obtained and the

requisite fees for second stage clearance including plantation and impact mitigation

activities has been deposited to the forest department and also alternative land have been

provided for equal afforestation. As far as social risk is concerned, there are insignificant


5 | P a g e

risks involved because this change neither involves any acquisition of private land nor

does it adversely impact any livelihood.

1.7. Mitigation and Monitoring

1.7.1. Mitigation

Mitigation measures are taken into consideration and defined during the impact assessment

process. The results of the mitigation analysis and the mitigation measures included in

mitigation plan of the Environmental& Social Management Plan.

1.7.2. Monitoring

The following monitoring approach is proposed:

a) The monitoring plan has been included in Environmental & Social Management Plan

(ESMP);

b) The PIU and MPUDC shall monitor the implementation of ESMP and track indicators

for IEC activities, grievance redressal, participation of women, scheduled Tribes and

other vulnerable people.

c) Quarterly report shall be prepared

2. Project Description

2.1. Description of Project Area

2.1.1. Background

Chhindwara town is the administrative headquarters of Chhindwara District under the

Jabalpur Administration Division of Madhya Pradesh. It is the largest city in the district.

The population of Chhindwara city was 138,291 (2011 census) and the Municipal area was

about 11.33 sq. km. Vide Urban Administration and Environment Department, Government

of Madhya Pradesh notification 28 F 1-14 /2014/18-3 dated 05.09.2014, the municipal

limits were increased andadjoining 24 villages were merged in it. The area of these 24

villages is 98.94 sq. km and population of these villages (census 2011) is 77,552. Thus, the

new municipal area of Chhindwara town is 110.27 sq. km and population as per 2011

census is 2,15,843. The figure 2.1 shows the spread of the ULB area.

Chhindwara is well connected with other parts of the country by road and railway. National

Highway 69 passes through Chhindwara. It connects Nagpur (128km) in Maharashtra to

Obedullaganj near Bhopal in Madhya Pradesh (refer Figure 2.2). The city is connected with

other parts of the country primarily through roads. The state highway SH-26 connects

Chhindwara to other prime areas in the state. Through the network of state highways, it is

connected with Bhopal (277km), and Jabalpur (196km). Nagpur at a distance of 130 km

from the city is the nearest airport. Chhindwara is well connected to the National Capital

Delhi and State Capital Bhopal through rail. A proposed broad-gauge line to Nagpur is

expected to improve the connectivity in the region.

The intent of the proposed subproject is to ensure that comprehensive, technically and

financially viable system for Sewerage system for core city and 7 adjacent villages on

priority in Chhindwara Municipal Area.

2.1.2. Objective of the Project

The primary objectives of the proposed subproject of sewerage of town Chhindwara are listed

below:

• To reduce the pollution by treating the waste water (sewage) of the town which is

presently being discharged in raw form into water bodies;

• Prevention of ground water and soil pollution due to infiltration of untreated liquid

waste;

• Improvement in water quality of existing water bodies;

• Improvement in environmental sanitation health and reduction in associated health

hazards to the inhabitants of the subproject towns;

• Improvement in quality of life, human dignity and increased productivity;

• Value addition to the socio-economic condition, and Substantial reduction of water

logging and flooding in sub-project area of Chhindwara

2.2. Existing Water Supply and Sanitation System

2.2.1. Brief Description of Existing Water Supply Schemes

The total potable water demand for the city of Chhindwara is met by surface water sources

and Tube wells. Kanhargaon dam on Kulbehra River being the main source, supplies 90%

of the total demand, balance being procured from bore wells and open and wells. The

existing storage capacity is 9.4 MLD and design capacity of the water treatment plants is

around 18 MLD. Presently, the per capita water supply for the city is 135 lpcd. The

coverage of the population at present is 95 % in the core area and 7 adjacent villages. A

water supply augmentation scheme for Chhindwara municipal township excluding newly

added 17 villages is recently commissioned for total water requirements for the year 2042

(ultimate design period) under Urban Infrastructure Development Scheme for Small and

Medium Towns (UIDSSMT) of Ministry of Urban Development, GOI. The total capacity

of the newly developed Water Supply System is based on 135 lpcd rate of water supply.

The sewerage sub project at Chhindwara is limited to this area only.

CMC envisaged another water supply augmentation scheme under Atal Mission for

Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation (AMRUT) for the remaining 17 villages within

Municipal Boundary so as to provide water to its citizen at 135 lpcd. This scheme has been

implemented in the year 2018-19.

2.2.2. Brief Description of Existing Sanitation Facilities and Disposal System

There is no formal existing sewerage scheme in the CMC area. The sewage from the

houses is conveyed to the individual septic tank. The effluent from the septic tank of

individual houses discharges into open channels along the roads and finally drains through

Nallah either to the lakes or to other water bodies. This creates an unhygienic condition in

the area. The sewerage scheme is a dire need of the core area, failing which problems will

be posed to the environment of the town affecting the Public health and the commercial


10 | P a g e

activities. Besides, sewage will pollute the ground water as well as surface water.

Toilets

At present 43,560 properties are in CMC area out of which more than 95% properties have

their own toilet in their premises. Approximately 36,000 properties have toilets with septic

tank facility. The effluent from Septic Tank is discharged to road side open drains. Average

size of each septic tank varies from 1.5m x1.0m and 3.0m x1.8m with depth ranging from

2m to2.5 m.

CMC was implementing Low Cost sanitation Scheme (LCS) in City in some of the newly

added areas. Total 3,185 no. of individual toilets is being constructed in city as well as in

slum areas. There are 11 public toilet blocks in the city which have total 107 seats capacity.

Presently, there is no additional requirement of public toilets in CMC area. Table 2.1

presents the basic information at a glance. There are 24 notified slums in the City, and

about 5,065 properties having total population of 20,260 in the slum area.

Table 2. 1: Existing Percentage of Coverage by Services in old CMC area

Sr. No. Description Population Percentage

1 Population 2011 215843

2 Population using Individual toilets 196020 93%

3 Population using public toilets 1070 1%

4 Population in Slum using individual toilets 12288 6%

Details of existing and ongoing sanitation system in town area, slum area and developed

area were collected from CMC and respective villages during site visits.

CMC had identified all the houses within its limits which do not have individual toilets and

had taken up the responsibility of constructing toilets for such families at individual

household level. CMC envisaged a scheme under the State owned ‘Mukhya Mantri Shahri

Swachhata Mission’ which later on was merged with the National Level Mission

"Swachchh Bharat Mission". CMC has already been declared Open Defecation Free ULB.

Sewerage System

At present, the city has no sewerage system; consequently, no sewage treatment plants

(STPs) are there as well. Sewage, as well as effluents from public toilets, etc. were found to

be directly being discharged in storm water drains (figure 2.3).

Septage Management

Chhindwara has traditionally followed a septage management approach; details are

presented in Table 2.2.

2.3. Need of Project

To sustain the high rate of growth in the town the sewerage system is an important

component of the infrastructure that needs to be developed on priority. There is also ground

water pollution posing a danger of cross-contamination for the water supply mains. In all

the area raw sewage is discharged into Nallahs and drains which is a danger to public

health and also offends water pollution control regulations. It is therefore necessary to

provide a comprehensive sewerage scheme covering the core area of the CMC (figure 2.4)

and ensuring that the sewage is adequately treated before disposal into water courses.

There is also a need to implement comprehensive Septage Management service for the City

as well as surrounding developed areas and villages.

The census data on decadal population since year 1951 is presented in Table 2.3

2.4. Proposed Project

2.4.1. Sewage Generation /Loading

The unit wastewater is determined considering the proposed improvements to the Water

Supply System, the usage from ground water sources and an appropriate return factor.

Infiltration is also considered and converted to a unit rate. Overall calculations are

presented in Table 2.5 below.

Table 2. 5: Per Capita Sewage Generation (for Core area and 7 villages)

a) Total per capita water supply 135 Lpcd

b) Sewage generation at 80% of the total water supply 108 Lpcd

c) Add for infiltration (10% of wastewater quantity) 10.8 Lpcd

d) Total unit sewage rate being admitted to system 118.8 Lpcd

Due to topography and sparse distribution of population, whole CMC area cannot be

provided with sewerage system without compromising depths or high numbers of SPS.

Additionally, population density is very low in outer areas that will lead to solid deposition

inside sewers. Hence, only part of the villages that can be connected to city sewerage by


13 | P a g e

gravity is considered. Hence, the proposed "Sewerage Network and STP" project of

Chhindwara Municipal Corporation envisages dividing whole town in two clusters 1) Core

city and 7 adjacent villages, and 2) 17 villages merged with CMC in January 2015. In this

proposed sewerage scheme the seven villages were included and 17 villages were

excluded, however, these 17 villages will be considered in later stage. Details of the

villages which were included in the present sewerage scheme is provided in the table 2.6

below and the map is provided below in figure 2.4.

Based on the topography and geographical, the DPR envisaged dividing the whole project

area in two zones. While designing the system, this concept was followed. For sewage

collection, the whole project area is divided into two zones. Design Population of Zone 1 in

the year 2048 is 115,020 and that of Zone 2 is 175,899. However, now the flow from zone

1 to Main Pumping Station at Koladhana will be gravity flow as against the pumping

proposed at DPR stage. It is proposed to set up 28 MLD capacity sewage treatment plant

(STP) at Sarra village.

2.4.2. Sewer Pipe:

Considering the techno economics of material, pipe up to 300 mm dia. has been taken as

DWC and above 300 mm dia. NP-3 concrete pipe has been taken. The minimum diameter

of pipe taken is 150 mm and cover taken is 1.0 m minimum. Total network length after

finalization of design is 302.374 km which is appx 13% more than the length conceived in

DPR. Out of the total designed length 150 mm diameter pipe is 216.33 km, 200 mm

diameter pipe is 40.80 km, 250 mm pipe is 11.88 km and 300 mm dia pipe is 7.20km

which means approximately 91.5% of the pipe length is upto or below 300mm dia which

requires less width of trench generally not exceeding 1.1m. Pipe of dia > 300mm and upto

1000 mm is appx 26.16 km which is 8.5% of the total length. Thus, the design is done in

such a manner that excessive depths are avoided to the extent possible. The maximum

depth is restricted to 4.8 m. Manhole is provided at every 30 m length and change in

alignment or as per the demand of site. The sewage from SPS will be pumped to STP by

pumping main of 2500m DI K-9 of 700 mm.

Sewage generation in the project boundary is presented in Table 2.7.

Table 2.7: Sewage Generation in Project Area

Sewage Generation (MLD) 2018 2033 2048

Zone 1 9.38 11.38 13.57

Total in Catchment Area 22.50 28.11 34.32


15 | P a g e

In this cluster (project boundary) of the CMC, 90 % households have septic tank. Hence

Septage management in houses, which cannot be covered under sewerage system due to

their location or topography, has also been taken in the present project.

2.4.3. Sewage Pumping Station:

Initially, two Sewage Pumping Station were proposed – one at Khasra No. 991 (Bail

Bazar), having area of 4.45 hectares (IPS proposed at 200 sqm only) and the second at

Koladhana (this pumping station is MPS as well). Both the lands are in possession of the

CMC. As per the final optimized design (after joint investigations of PMU Bhopal, PIU

Jabalpur, Independent Verification Team, PMC and CMC), flow of sewage from zone 1 to

MPS at Koladhana will be gravity flow and hence, SPS at Bail Bazar is no more required.

Thus, now only one pumping station (which is also the Main Pumping Station) at

Koladhana is envisaged. the location of proposed STP has been shifted to the Sarra area.

Thus, as per final approved design and drawing only one SPS is to be constructed at

Koladhana near Bodri Nallah in ward no.33.

All the sewage will be collected at SPS at Koladhana from where it will be pumped to STP

by pumping main of DI K-9 of 700 mm and 2.5 km length. Zoning of the project area and

location of the sewage pumping station is below figure 2.5 and 2.6 respectively.

2.4.4. Manholes:

Circular manhole of brick masonry is proposed at all junction, change of diameter, and

change in pipe gradient and on straight run of sewer. The design of manholes is depending

upon the depth and the diameter of the sewer. The spacing is in confirmation of CPHEEO

Manual for Sewerage. Typical manhole cover and frame in Steel fiber reinforced concrete

(SFRC) / reinforced concrete heavy duty is proposed. Use of precast cement Concrete

manholes will also be done in commercially busy areas with the basic objective to cause

minimum inconvenience to the shopkeepers, vendors and consumers/ customers

(installation of precast manhole takes lesser time than construction of brick manhole).

Provision is made in each manhole to receive multiple service connections from adjacent

properties. No provision is made for direct connections to sewer pipeline between

manholes so as to prevent interference and damage to the sewer. Depth wise diameter of

manhole is presented in Table 2.8

Table 2. 8: Depth wise Diameter of Manhole

Manhole Type Dia of pipe in mm Depth (m) Dia of Manhole

Circular Type 150-250 0.91 to 1.65 900 mm

Circular Type 150-900 1.66 to 2.30 1200 mm

Circular Type 150-900 2.31 to above 1500 mm

2.4.5. Property Connection:

Property connections are proposed to be provided in this project and the arrangement

comprises a facility to convey the wastewater including grey and blackwater from the

houses to the sewers line. HDPE pipe is to be used for connecting up to the property

boundary. Provision for pipe cost and road side property chamber has been made in the

contract along with the necessary road restoration charges.

For two or more properties, a roadside chamber shall be constructed close to property

boundary & 110mm Φ HDPE pipe shall be provided from road side chamber to street

Manhole. Openings are provided to Roadside chambers so that the property owner can

make connection to the roadside chamber from his premise. The properties, which are close

to the manhole, will have a separate connection for each property and no roadside chamber

will be provided. As far as possible, the sewer shall be laid at the center of the road for road

width less than four meters. The part of connection including Inspection Chamber inside

the property has to be constructed by the property owner at their own cost.

2.4.6. Site Selection for the Proposed STP

The Sewage Treatment Plant is essential to treat the waste water collected through

Sewerage Network. This is an important component of any Waste Water Management.


18 | P a g e

As per the final DPR, the STP was proposed to be constructed at Koladhana near

Bodri Nallah in ward no. 33 at Khasra 678 having an area of 1.8 hectares. But

while doing survey and geotechnical investigations, it was found that major part of

this site for STP at Koladhana was under submergence of Bodri Nallah and hence, it

was decided to change the site for STP. Further a detailed analysis regarding the

land available at Koladhana was done by MPUDC, PMC and the contractor jointly

which is as following:

a. Land requirement for construction of STP is 2.5 ha and total land available at

Koladhana is 1.8ha.

b. Bodri Nallah is dividing this land into 3 small parcels which renders the land

un-useful for construction of STP. To make the land useful, nallah will have to

be diverted and the ground filling will be required to raise its level. This is a

cost extensive job.

c. As the land was open since years and was available as an easy thorough fare, a

cart road has developed by the villagers across the land. Therefore, in case of

construction of STP on this land, alternative arrangement of road for villagers

will be needed.

d. Approx. 0.921 ha of land will be required for diverting the Nallah which will

have to be acquired by the CMC.

e. Substantial amount for construction of retaining wall of the Nallah and/or land

acquisition will be required.

f. As per contract, the available land should accommodate the future augmentation

of STP for the population of 2048.

g. The land piece is not suitable and ample for construction of STP but part of it

can be used for construction of MPS.

In view of the above, it was decided to select alternative site for construction of STP. After

studying various alternatives (in consultation with ULB) for construction of STP, land at

Village Sarra in ward no 35 Khasra no126,128 and 129 having an area of 2.851 hectare

was selected and thus the location of STP is changed from Koladhana to Sarra after a joint

field verification by the contractor’s team, PIU and PMC and final consent of IVT was

obtained. Figure 2.7 shows the alternate site for STP. The layout of the STP is also

enclosed as figure 2.8.

2.4.7. Selection of Sewage Treatment Technology:

The DPR proposed to adopt Cyclic Activated Sludge Process (SBR technology) for

treatment of sewage. However, the bid was based on the open technology norm. The

contractor had proposed to use Cyclic Activated Sludge Process (SBR technology).

Design inlet and outlet parameter given below in table 2.9. The process flow

4. Baseline Environment Profile

4.1. Baseline Study

The baseline environmental and social status is important to understand the region's

existing physical and biological characteristics along with cultural and social status of the

residing community. Information and data presented in this section is based on field

surveys, stake-holder interaction/consultation and secondary data collection which majorly

include the Detailed Project Report (DPR) of proposed sewerage work, by Nagar Nigam,

Water/ Air/ Noise quality monitoring report of CPCB and Madhya Pradesh State Pollution

Control Board, City census data and others. The information on the baseline environmental

conditions forms the basis to analyze the probable impacts of the proposed project vis-à-vis

the present background environmental quality of the core study area.

4.2. Environmental Profile of Chhindwara Subproject

The subproject components locations are within subproject town. None of the components

of the proposed sub project is located private land. Only the STP is proposed in the Shrub

Forest land under the possession of Forest Department at Sarra village in Chhindwara.

There are neither protected areas, like wildlife sanctuaries, national parks, nor there are any

historically, archeologically protected areas in the vicinity. Towns are densely populated in

the core/old town areas with narrow lanes, and small and closely built houses, while most

of the areas are undeveloped and are still under agricultural use. Commercial areas are

along the main roads, which are generally congested with activities, pedestrians and traffic.

Site environmental Features of proposed Sewerage Scheme components are presented in

Table 4.1.

Detail of Location and Environmental features

1. STP A detailed study was done by the DBO contractor for the construction of STP at

Koladhana near Bodri Nallah in ward no. 33. After detailed investigations, it was

found that the land available at the Koladhana for the construction of STP is not

suitable due to the reasons given in Chapter 2 sub section 2.4.6. After a joint

verification of PMC & IVT, PIU, ULB as well as PMU, the land at Sarra near

Nallah in ward no.35 was selected for the construction of STP. Hence, it is

proposed to set up 28 MLD capacity sewage treatment plant (STP) based on

SBR technology at village Sarra.

The selected land parcel is Shrub Forest land under the possession of Forest

Department. The site has no trees. It is also clarified that the no one (habitation)

is dependent on the selected land parcel. The ULB through District Collector

Chhindwara applied to the Forest Department for diversion of this land.

Diversion and allotment of selected land parcel at Sarra were sought by CMC

vide letter dated 18.06.18. Department of Forest has issued first stage clearance

and has demanded requisite fee vide letter no. 2113 dated 19.07.2019 which has


37 | P a g e

been paid by MPUDC dated 10th and 11th Feb., 2020 (Appendix 14 and 15).

Alternative parcel of land of 4.84 Ha as already been allotted by the District

Collector Chhindwara to the Forest Department at Harrai (Village Anjanpur,

BN-175, PHN-48, RNM-Harrai Tehsil, Dist. Chhindwara) bearing Khasra No.

126, 128 and 129.

2. SPS As per the final design of network, SPS at Bail Bazar is no more required as the

sewage from zone 1 will flow through gravity to Main Pumping Station at

Koladhana. .Only one SPS (which is also MPS) of 28 MLD capacity is proposed

at Koladhana near Bodri Nallah in ward no. 33 (Khasra no. 678) Panchnama

has been prepared and the land is received from Revenue Department on

07.01.2018 and is handed over to the contractor.

network Total length of sewer network is 305.34 km (including pumping main) which

will be laid underground within the RoW of existing roads. Pipes of dia 150mm

to 300mm are of DWC HDPE and those of > 300 mm dia are of NP3 concrete

pipe. Pumping main of DI will be laid from MPS to STP.


38 | P a g e

4.3. Physical Environment

4.3.1. Meteorology

Chhindwara has a sub-tropical climate. A hot summer and general dryness characterize the

climate of the area, except during the southwest monsoon season. The year may be divided

into four seasons: Cold season from December to February; Hot season from March to

about the middle of June; period from the middle of June to September is the south-west

monsoon season and October and November form the post monsoon or transition period.

The normal annual rainfall of Chhindwara district is 1139.3 mm. The district receives

maximum rainfall during south-west monsoon period i.e. June to September. About 85.7 %

of the annual rainfall falls during monsoon season. Only 14.3 % of the annual rainfall takes

place between Octobers to May period. Thus, surplus water for ground water recharge is

available only during the southwest monsoon period.

The normal maximum temperature noticed during the month of May is 440 C and minimum

during the month of December 9.80 C. The normal annual mean minimum and maximum

temperatures has been worked out as 18.20 C and 30.60 C respectively.

During the south-west monsoon season, the relative humidity generally exceeds 87%

(August month) and the rest of the year is drier. The driest part of the year is the summer

season, when relative humidity is less than 33%. May is the driest month of the year.

Wind velocity is higher during the pre-monsoon period as compared to post- monsoon

period. The maximum wind velocity, 9.5 km/hr observed during the month of June and

minimum, 3.3 km/hr during the month of November. The average annual wind velocity in is

5.4 km/hr.

4.3.2. Topography

The northern part of the Chhindwara city is hilly. Natural Slope of the CMC area is north to

south with the levels with reference to MSL varying from 695 m to 644 m. In the eastern

part of the City, the topography is sloped towards the Bodri Nallah and in the southern side

towards Kulbehra River (which passes from South to East of the City).

Sewage collection is affected by gravity and therefore accurate topographic survey of the

project area based on street levels is of prime importance to the design of the system and its

subsequent efficient performance. A detailed topographic survey has been carried out for

project area and a contour map has been prepared. The general slope of the town is in south

west direction. The sewerage network and the location of STP are envisaged in accordance

to the general slope of the town. Natural drains or water channels also play an important role

in deciding the alignment of sewerage network. Based on the general slope and natural

drainage pattern, the whole core town and the 7 villages (adjacent to core town and within

municipal limits) was divided in two zones. However, Sewage of Zone 1 will also flow to


39 | P a g e

the MPS through gravity.

4.3.3. Geology

Located in the southern region of Madhya Pradesh, Chhindwara lies in the upland trough of

Kulbehra River. The area has sandy loam soil. Archaeans are exposed in parts of

Chhindwara. A few trial pits are shown in Figure 4.1 indicating the soil strata.

40 | P a g e

4.3.4. Air Environment:

The data on ambient air quality monitoring and Noise level data is not available as

Chhindwara is monitored by the Madhya Pradesh Pollution Control Board

(MPPCB).

Therefore, a rapid ambient air quality monitoring was conducted by the support

agency appointed by the MPUDC, so as to establish baseline air quality for the

town. The ambient temperature of the monitoring stations was found to be lie

between 33-34oC and relative humidity 48%. The Ambient Air Quality monitoring

was conducted at 4 locations Seoni Pranmoti, Sarra STP, SPS Koladhana and

Sanchar Colony in the Chhindwara city area. The monitoring was done on March

2019 for 24 hours (Appendix 10). The AAQM monitoring details are present

Monitoring results shows that levels of PM2.5, PM10, oxides of Sulphur and

Nitrogen are well within the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS). It

is very much lower than standards prescribed and it is not expected that

construction would increase dust levels. However as precautionary measure: dust


41 | P a g e

barriers, sprinkling will be adopted for high dust emitting construction areas.

4.3.5. Noise Levels

Noise is considered to be one of the aspects of pollution, which also leads to the

degradation of the social environment and also poses health and communication

problems. The impact of noise sources on surrounding community depends on

characteristics of noise the time of day at which noise occurs, the location of the

noise source and the loudness and duration of exposure. The assessment of noise is

carried out by considering various factors like damage to hearing ability,

physiological disturbance, annoyance and general community responses. Noise

Monitoring was done at two locations and is presented in Table 4.3 below.

permissible limits during day and night and in accordance with National Ambient

Noise Level Standards. The sensitive receptors at various components have been

provided in ESMP.

4.3.6. Water Environment:

Water and Wastewater Quality analysis of household sewage discharging into the street

sewers and of the receiving water bodies at major wastewater outfalls has been carried out

(refer Table 4.4). These samples were tested for PH, COD, BOD, Suspended solids and total

Nitrogen Phosphorus (Appendix 9B).

In order to measure the baseline level of existing water quality and probable pollution in

the storm water drain (STP outfall, receiving water body) nearby STP site, Sarra,

Biological oxygen demand (BOD) and Chemical oxygen demand (COD), pH, TSS etc.

were tested. The BOD is 3.4 mg/l, COD 3.4 mg/l, pH 6.9, total suspended solids 28mg/l,

total dissolved solid 729 mg/l, total hardness (CACO3) 516 mg/l and turbidity 9.9 NTU

were observed (Annexure 9C). This is once again reiterated here that this drain is only

storm water drain carrying rain water during rainy period only and remains dry during

remaining year.

4.3.7. Ground Water Scenario

As per the studies conducted by Central Ground Water Board (Data taken from its website)

Ground water occurs under phreatic and semi-confined to confined conditions. Alluvium,

weathered granites/gneisses, lower Gondwana sandstones, weathered, fractured and jointed

massive basalts and vesicular basalts form the major phreatic aquifers; and weathered,

fractured granites are noticed as main water-bearing zones at deeper levels. It is observed

that the discharge of dug wells tapping alluvium and vesicular basalt ranges between 80

and 235 m3/day respectively and jointed massive basalts and weathered gneisses range

from 44 to 177 m3/day and from 61 to 77 m3/day respectively. Water bearing fractured

zones is encountered between the depths of 71.00 and 176.00 m bgl at deeper levels. The

discharge in weathered, fractured granite at deeper levels ranges from 0.2 to 10.00l/s.

Water level data, including historical data, are essential for not only to know the present

ground water conditions but also for forecasting future trends in response to ground water

reservoir operations. Pre and Post monsoon depths to water level maps are reproduced.

Pre- monsoon: Pre monsoon depth to water levels range from 8 to 20 meter below ground

level (mbgl). The long-term water level trend (2001 to 2010) shows declining trend ranges

from 0.02 to 0.2 m/year (Pre- monsoon). A large-scale withdrawal of ground water for

irrigation purpose is observed.

Post- monsoon: During post monsoon period, water levels ranges from 0 .70 to 15.00

mbgl. Water level fluctuation between pre and post monsoon period ranges from 0.30-

to7.60 m.

The entire Chhindwara district, command and Non-Command areas, falls under Safe

Category, except Chhindwara block which is falling under Semi -Critical category where

stage of ground water development is 93%.

The E-Coli value of water samples ranges between 280-1600. Nitrate value of water

samples ranges between 1-243 and Fluoride between.09-.97 in phreatic aquifer. Ground

water in phreatic aquifer is potable but excessive fluoride (1.60-20.00 Mg/l) is noticed in

deeper aquifers.

4.3.8. Seismicity

The country has been classified into different zones indicating the intensity of damage

frequency of earthquake occurrences. These zoning maps indicate broadly the seismic

coefficient that could generally be adopted for design of buildings in different parts of the


43 | P a g e

country. These maps are based on subjective estimates of intensity from available

information on earthquake occurrence, geology and tectonics of the country. Chhindwara

lies in Zone III as per the Bureau of Indian standards, the National Standard Body of India.

This zone is classified as Moderate Damage Risk Zone

4.3.9. Biological Environment

The flora and fauna identified in the project (study) area are commonly found and not

specific to the region. There are no National Parks, Wild life sanctuaries, Bird sanctuaries

within 03 Km. radius of the project site. There is no rare and endangered species in the

project area. The prominent tree species include shrubs of Zizyphussps., latifolia, Azadiracta

indica, Magnifera indica, Lantana camera, Zizyphusmauritiyana, cassia fistula

Shorearobusta, Diospyros melanoxylon, Boswellia serrata, Terminalia tomentosa,

Terminalia bellayoica, Terminalia arjuna, Pterocarpus marsupium, Madhuca indica trees,

etc. The prominent species among the fauna include Ovisaries, Sciuridae, Bubalus bubalis,

Capra aegagrushircus Crow, sparrow and street dog.

4.4. Baseline of Sludge disposal site

For sludge disposal, 2.086 ha piece of land (Khasra No. 14/5) has been identified and

allotted by Chhindwara Municipal Corporation at Salimota village, Mohakheda Thaluq,

Chhindwara . The coordinates of the site are 21.974402 N and 78.919937 E. (Appendix 11)

This is barren land free from any habitations, trees, shrubs and encroachments and is under

the possession of government. Hard strata impermeable layer has been observed at the

proposed site.. The proposed site is well approachable by State Highway no.547

Chhindwara to Narsinghpur. The habitation is way far (approx. 700m) from the proposed

site. The distance from STP to Sludge disposal land is about 7.4 km.

4.5. Socio Economic Profile of Chhindwara

The population of Chhindwara city in 2011 census is approximately 1,38, 291 Chhindwara

Municipal Area is divided into 45 wards for development and administrative purposes. The


44 | P a g e

new municipal area of Chhindwara town is 110.27 sq. km. The total households of

Chhindwara city are 37255. The brief of socio-economic profile of Chhindwara is given

below:

4.4.1. Land Use Pattern

The land use pattern as per statutory Development Plan, 2021 of Chhindwara Planning area

(including the then CMC and nearby villages) is given in table 4.5. However, this

Development Plan was notified before the extension of Municipal Limits (i.e year 2015) and

seems irrelevant in view of the area of the extended CMC limits (110.27 sqkm) being much

more than the area under the Development Plan (14.21 sqkm). However, the Planning area

provides the land use pattern in core area (i.e Municipal Limits before the year 2015) and the

adjacent 7 villages which together make the Project Area under MPUDP. The percentage of

residential area in this plan is a clear indication of sparse spatial distribution of population.

4.4.2. Commercial Streets of Chhindwara Town

Chhindwara is an important center for the trade in the district. Around 132 villages and

other centers in the District depend predominantly on the city for daily business. The

commercial activities are spread in limited part of Chhindwara in irregular pattern. This is

important to note that these commercial streets are based on the “as and when required”

approach without an integrated City Development perspective. . Presently, there are around

8 small local level markets functioning in the city, which cater to the daily needs of

Chhindwara and adjacent areas. Also, street shopping has developed along some major

roads and in the vacant spaces across various locations in the city. The trade and allied

activities in the City take place mainly in Budhwari Bazaar, Itwari Bazaar, Golgunj, Mata

Mandir and areas near Gunj, which are established along the main roads and the busy roads

in the City. The wholesale and the retail activities take place simultaneously in few areas.

The commercial activities in the City have developed near the old city areas and most of

these activities are unregulated or unorganized. Table 4.6 presents the locations and type of

the markets in the city.

of Chhindwara BPL Population

A total of 19,282 households have been identified as BPL households in Chhindwara as in

2010 and there were about 11,271 in the year 2004 (a considerable growth of 71% in the

last six years). Considering 5.1 as average HH size the total 19,282 HHs constitute about

98,338 which is about 72% of the population in the City. However, according to the 2004-

05 estimates of the city, about 52,339 people fall under the category ‘Below Poverty Line’ .

4.4.4. Ward Wise Slum areas

The slums have sprung up in low ill-drained areas, pits, drainage lines, level crossings,

waste lands, scrub lands and nallah in contrast to the surrounding areas. Thirteen wards

Components Detail of Location and Social Features

1. STP It is proposed to set up 28 MLD capacity sewage treatment plant (STP)

at village Sarra. SBR technology will be used for STP.

The selected land parcel is Shrub Forest land under the possession of

Forest Department. Second stage clearance for diversion of land is

under process with Forest Department. This land has no trees.

Being government land, no acquisition of land is required. The land is

away from the settlement and is free from any type of encroachment or

encumbrances and hence, no resettlement or any type of loss of income

will be faced.

2. SPS As per the final design of network, SPS at Bail Bazar is no more

required. (Details already given in previous chapters).

MPS of 28 MLD capacity is to be constructed at Koladhana near Bodri

Nallah in ward no. 33 (Khasra no. 678). The land belongs to Revenue

Department & the possession has been given to ULB on 07.01.2018.

Being government land, no acquisition of land is required. The land is

away from the settlement and is free from any type of encroachment or

encumbrances and hence, no resettlement or any type of loss of income

will be faced.

3 Sewer network Sewerage network and pumping main is to be laid (305.34km length)

of 150mm-1000 mm dia. of DWC/ RCC/ DI K-9 pipe will be laid

underground along the RoW.

The excavations and laying of pipeline within RoW need no land

acquisition, however, following possible impacts may be foreseen:

1. The issues of access to residents and shops

2. Temporary shifting of street vendors (on moving carts or sitting

on ground)

3. Breakage of underground utilities

4. Damage to boundary walls or other structures like chabutarahs

while doing excavations

5. Traffic Diversions or restrictions

6. Public Safety from excavations

7. Safety of labour during construction activities

8. Air and Noise Pollution during Construction and O&M

9. Sludge Management during O&M

Detailed analysis and impact assessment as well as the mitigation

measures are given in forthcoming chapters.

5. Assessment of Anticipated Impacts

5.1. Introduction

This Chapter identifies and discusses both positive and negative impacts associated with the

proposed Project and their mitigation measures. On the basis of screening and field visits and

parameters provided in ESMF for Environment and social, the Chhindwara Sewerage sub project

is categorized as Ea and Sc. The anticipated impacts and corresponding mitigation measures are

discussed in Phases namely: design, construction, operation and decommissioning. Based on the

magnitude and duration of the project activities and the environmental attributes of the receiving

environment presented in earlier chapter on environmental setting, the nature, duration and

extent of impact are assessed. Minor project impacts have also been identified and basis for their

insignificance has been provided. Wherever relevant, the ESMP also addresses the minor

impacts and provides environmental mitigation or environmental enhancement measures.

5.2. Environmental Impact

In the proposed Sewerage Scheme, direct and/or indirect impacts are generated which are rather

short-term as they are felt and manifested during the actual performance of the construction

activities. It is expected that impacts from these types of activities will cease once the contractor

completes the project and demobilizes from the site. Table 5.1 and figure 5.1 shows the influence

area of the proposed sub project components: -

5.2.1. General Impacts during Subproject Cycle

Environmental and Social Impacts: Pollution abatement projects may prove beneficial for

the environment and society or they may have some adverse impacts as well. Planners and

decision makers have realized the importance of understanding the consequences of any such

projects on both environmental and social aspects, and have started taking steps to avoid any

adverse impacts. Based on the major findings obtained from the field visits and secondary data

analysis, the possible environmental and social issues with reference to the proposed sewer

works in Chhindwara are discussed in these sections. The proposed sub-project consists of

three major activities which include:

• Construction of approximately 302.642 km long sewerage network including all required

trunk/ branch/ lateral sewer.

• Construction of STP at Sarra

• Construction of sewage pumping station at Koladhana

The construction activities would generally include earthworks (excavation, filling, shuttering,

compacting), civil construction (sewer lines, STP, SPS, etc.).

Potential Environmental Impacts: The environmental impact of the proposed project may

be categorized in two phases:

i. During the construction phase which would be temporary and short term;

ii. During the operation phase which would have long term effects

The activities identified for project under each phase are:

A. Construction phase

1. Site clearing and levelling

2. Excavation and Foundation

3. Transportation of construction materials, equipment and machineries

4. Construction of STP Units and related infrastructure

5. Establishment of necessary support infrastructure such as project office, labor camp,

stores, etc.

B. Operation phase

1. Operation of STP

2. Disposal of treated effluent and the sludge

The following impacts are associated with the construction of the proposed sewerage project:

a. Impact on air environment

uring the construction phase it is expected Emissions from the diesel generator(s) and

materials transport through heavy vehicles to the site will be among various sources of air

pollution during construction phase. These emissions are temporary in nature. Bulldozers,

excavators, cranes, DG sets welding machines, trucks trailers etc. for transportation of

materials will also contribute to gaseous emissions through use of diesel as a fuel. Based on the

field observation from the site data and interaction/consultation with stake-holders, it is


51 | P a g e

expected that the levels of suspended particulates, carbon mono-oxide (CO), hydrocarbons and

NOx (NO &NO2) is likely to increase during the construction phase mainly because of:

• Excavation, backfilling, compaction activity and movement of vehicles on un-paved roads

(increases dust level)

• Vehicle exhausts from construction machinery and from light and heavy vehicles for

transportation of pipes and construction material like cement, steel, aggregates etc.

• Use of portable diesel generators and other fuel fired machinery.

Interruption of existing installations on the pipeline route: The network laying will cross,

move in or move along existing installations including:

• Property accesses;

• Roads

• Underground utilities e.g. electricity and telephone links; and

• Fences and structures like chabutarahs.

These services are critical and have implications with spillover effects on the social and

economic performance.

Mitigation:

• Formal request for permission to cross, break in and build the sewer network should be

sought from affected stakeholders and the relevant institutions such as MPEB;

• Formal engagement will be done with key land and other property owners neighbouring

the sewer, in case the boundary wall or chabutarahs is expected to be damaged;

• Ensure dissemination of relevant information to each of the affected parties;

• A work plan with clear responsibilities for each party will be developed to ensure smooth

execution of the construction.

Noise generation: Construction of the proposed Project will most likely result in noise

generation by the machines that will be used e.g. excavation equipment and construction

vehicles delivering materials to site. Significance of noise impacts depends on whether the

Project would increase noise levels above the existing ambient levels by introducing new

sources of noise. Noise impacts would be considered significant if the Project would result in

the following:

• Exposure of persons to or generation of noise levels in excess of standards established in

the local general plan or noise ordinance, or applicable standards of other agencies;

• Exposure of persons to or generation of excessive ground-borne vibration or ground-borne

noise levels;

• A substantial permanent increase in ambient noise levels (more than 3 dBA) in the project

vicinity above levels existing before the project; and

• A substantial temporary or periodic increase in ambient noise levels in the project vicinity

above levels existing before the project.

The Contractor shall put in place measures that will mitigate noise pollution arising during the

construction phase.


52 | P a g e

Mitigation:

• Install portable barriers to shield compressors and other small stationary equipment where

necessary;

• Use of quiet equipment (i.e. equipment designed with noise control elements);

• Limit pickup trucks and other small equipment to a minimum idling time and observe a

common-sense approach to vehicle use, and encourage workers to shut off vehicle engines

whenever possible;

• Provision of appropriate personnel protective equipment;

• Construct mainly during the day time; and

• Consider labour based construction methodologies.

Interference with the physical setting: The proposed project could result into the following

impacts to the physical setting:

• Changes in the local topography during site grading, development of treatment systems and

laying of sewers among others;

• Blockage of natural drainage system at valley crossings;

• Excavation for creation of access routes and related structures; and

Mitigation:

• The design is done ensuring that there will be no hinderance to drainage, no change in

topography. The designs do not introduce or cause any physical changes that are not in

harmony with the physical setting of the Project area;

• The structures to be developed are aesthetically acceptable to blend in with the

surrounding;

• The contractor as much as possible, will complete the works in such a way that natural

aesthetics shall be retained at the construction locations;

• Roads will be restored to its original or better

Disposal of soil: Project construction will involve earthworks and excavation. This will result

in the generation of some spoil materials. But there will be little carting away of excavated

material. The soils may affect the surrounding environment if not adequately disposed.

Mitigation:

• Maximize the re-use of excavated materials in the works as far as feasible to ensure that no

permanent spoil dumps are created;

• Properly dispose off the spoil in the identified land allotted by the CMC at Barman Land

Parasia Road, Chhindwara at Khasra no. 11/7 to 11/14. The land is in the possession of

ULB.

• Care is being taken to avoid spoil location in land as well as the spoil is being reused for

other productive purposes.

Solid waste generation: Solid wastes generated from the construction activities are excess

excavated earth (spoils), discarded construction materials, cement bags, wood, steel, oils, fuels


53 | P a g e

and other similar items. Domestic solid wastes may also be generated from the workers’ camp.

Improper waste management could cause odor and vermin problems, pollution and flow

obstruction of nearby watercourses and could negatively impact the landscape.

Mitigation:

• Construction waste will be recycled or reused as much as possible to ensure that materials

that would otherwise be disposed off as waste are diverted for productive uses;

• Measures to ensure that construction materials requirements are carefully budgeted and to

ensure that the amount of construction materials left on site after construction is kept

minimal, will be taken;

• Minimization of solid waste during construction of the Project through use of durable,

long-lasting materials that will not need to be replaced often, thereby reducing the amount

of construction waste generated over time;

• Skips and bins will be strategically placed within the labour campsite and construction site,

they will also be covered to prevent access by vermin and to minimize odour. They will be

emptied regularly;

• Measures to ensure that waste materials from the Project are disposed at suitable sites will

be taken. The construction waste such as spoils will be disposed off at designated site

provided by CMC (already explained in earlier sections). These will be include engaging

reputable truckers and conducting appropriate spot checks to verify that disposal is done in

accordance with the requirements of MSW rules;

• The domestic waste from labour camps will be collected by CMC which is already

collecting the domestic waste at Door to Door level.

b. Impact on Land Environment

The proposed project is laying of Sewerage network and construction of Sewage Pumping

Station and Sewage Treatment Plant. During construction, a small amount of vegetation

(mainly shrubs) will be cleared to give way for the sewer, SPS and STP. Normally removal of

vegetation and land clearing is associated with soil erosion, however these issues are localized

and associated with construction phase only. This is further clarified that construction of none

of the components includes removal of vegetative cover and except for some of the shrubs.

Excessive debris, trash or construction remnants (e.g. dirt piles) may create problems related to

drainage, unhygienic conditions and poor aesthetics.

There are no endangered flora & Fauna species in the project area. The sewerage project does

not envisage any destruction or displacement of any endemic floral or faunal species; hence the

impact will be insignificant.

Mitigation:

• The Contractor will ensure proper demarcation of the Project component area to be affected

by the construction works;

• Strict control of construction vehicles to ensure that they operate only within the area to be

disturbed by access routes and other works;


54 | P a g e

• Retention of trees and shrubs, where possible on the potential sites for screening of the

visual impact;

• Where the proposed route requires the removal of any vegetation, care will be taken to

minimize the destruction or damage of trees.

• Plantation for trees cut due to construction, if any

• Excess excavated material during network laying will be removed within 2 days of the

backfilling

Workers accidents and hazards: Construction workers are likely to have injuries and hazards

as the construction works unavoidably expose workers to occupational health and safety risks.

Sewer network laying and construction of SPS and STP involve deep excavations and the

workers are likely to be exposed to risk of accidents and injuries resulting from accidental falls

and injuries from hand tools and construction equipment.

Mitigation:

• To reduce the workers accidents and hazards, and the contractor shall be commited to

abide by Site Occupational Health and Safety rules

• Before start of work on site, a brief meeting shall be done daily and all construction

workers should be advised of the dangers associated with construction work and how to

keep themselves safe;

• Workers should be provided with suitable personal protective equipment (PPE);

• Provision of adequate sanitary facilities to workers;

• Train all workers on Safety Health and Environment (SHE) with an aim of improving

awareness;

• Where construction activities interfere with the movement of traffic, the proper and

sufficient signage shall be provided on site and controlled by trained flagmen/flag women

and lit in night, reflectors may also be used to guide the citizen and commuters during

night.

5.2.3 Impacts during operation phase

The impacts of operation stage activities on the various environmental parameters are

examined below:

a) Air Environment

As the STP does not involve any type of unit operations releasing the gaseous emissions,

hence, the impact on ambient air quality is not going to be affected. Odor nuisance however, is

likely to be observed from the STP operations. Although SBR technology does not produce

bad odour (because it is not anaerobic process), however, any odour produced will be managed

through development of green belt around the STP site and specific odor mitigation measures,

as needed.

b) Water environment

Water resources in the project area would be the most positively benefited. The probably

environmental impacts related to water during operation stage may include unpredictable

events such as:


55 | P a g e

i. Temporary flooding of adjacent areas due to accidental leakages/bursts and also due to

blockages and backlogging of lines.

ii. Water pollution and possibility of mixing with water supply line due to leakages/

overflows from the sewer lines

iii. Impairment of receiving water quality inefficient sewage treatment process

c) Noise quality

Improper handling and irregular maintenance of operating machines including pumps,

generators, air diffusers, etc. may lead to increased noise pollution during operation activity.

d) Impact on Occupational Health and Safety

As the operation of STP facilities involve handling and use of chemicals such as Lime, Poly

electrolyte, Urea, DAP etc. the safety of workers invites safety considerations. As the workers

will be equipped with necessary personal protective equipment’s (PPE) and will be trained for

safety aspects to be followed during working hours, , the impact will be insignificant as a

whole. The sludge will be disposed off to sludge disposal site Khasra no 14/5, Village,

Salimeta, Tehsil Mohkhed, District Chhindwara, hence there will be no percolation of sewage

(Appendix 11).

5.3. Social Impacts

The locations of STP and SPS have been finalized The land required for the SPS is

Government land and in possession of ULB. The land for STP at Sarra is also a Government

land owned by Forest Department (Shrub Forest) for which fee for diversion has already been

paid. Hence no land acquisition or permanent impact on assets is anticipated. Other likely

impacts are presented in ensuing sections.

Sewer network is to be laid in the RoW of roads which are in possession of CMC and hence,

neither any land acquisition nor any permission from any Statutory or private owner is needed.

However, this is clarified here that there is no demolition of any temporary or permanent

structure involved/observed during network laying. There is no loss of livelihood (permanent

or temporary ) is observed.

5.3.1 Land Requirement

After final design and drawing, it is confirmed that no private land is required for the project,

as construction of proposed infrastructure is to be done on government land. The land required

for STP and SPS as already stated above, belongs to the government and is not being utilised

under farming or any other purposes (Land records for all the proposed infrastructure enclosed

as Appendix 5). Moreover there would be no loss of community assets during the

construction, as noticed during site visits and interaction with the local people. The network

will be laid within RoW and hence, no private land will have to be acquired or purchased for

laying of network as well. Thus, there are no adverse impacts either on general or on any

vulnerable group.

New site selected for STP at Sarra village which is Shrub Forest land as per revenue records


56 | P a g e

under the possession of Forest Department. As per the verification of PIU, PMC and IVT there

were no such vegetation and any habitation dependent observed at the selected site. For the

diversion of forest land to the ULB Chhindwara, Forest Act. 1980 provisions are being

followed. The letter for compensatory afforestation has been provided by Collector

Chhindwara to DFO for afforestation in compensation for the selected Shrub Forest land for

STP at Sarra village Chhindwara. The Collector has allotted land Khasra no 53/2 area 4.84

hectare at village Harrai for the requisite plantation of trees. The proposed plantation will be

done by forest department and the monitoring will be done by the department of forest itself.

However, afforestation activity at compensatory land will be ensured by the PIU, Chhindwara.

Refer appendix 14 and 15 for more details.

5.3.2. Impact on Livelihood

The excavation work for laying of network will lead to blockage of access to the residents as

well as shops/ commercial establishments, thus, some trouble in operating their business

during pipe line laying may occur for a very short period of time. Screening and site visits

along the road stretches through which pipes are to be laid reveal that there will be

temporary disruption to ongoing commercial and vending activities. These temporary

disruptions may result in loss of income during construction for certain period of 2 to 3

days. However, On the basis of final survey done by the contractor during September –

October 2019 and verification done by the PIU and PMC during October 2019, it was found

that the no shops/kiosk will be required to shift either temporarily or permanent. A survey to

identify the Project Affected Persons was done by the contractor for which the proforma

used is given at Appendix 17. Street vendors on moving cart or sitting on street will be

required to be shifted whenever the pipeline is being laid on one side of the road. This is

also important to note here that vendors on moving cart and even those who sit on street do

not have a permanent location and they keep on shifting. . No one is permanent or

temporarily impacted by the sub project. The joint survey has been conducted by the PIU,

PMC & contractor, as per the survey, No potential damage has been observed to any

structure.

The network design is done in a such a manner that no kiosk will have to be shifted and hence,

no compensation is required

The work of network laying will be done in small stretches of 250m or less. Planks over the

excavated portions will be provided at every 50m interval. This will enable the access to all the

shopkeepers with minimum inconvenience.

Street vendors will be shifted just opposite to the road (on the other side) within the same area,

and this will enable them to earn their daily livelihood without having any adverse impact on

them. Moreover, works in congested commercial areas will be taken up during weekly holidays.

The weekly market day will be avoided for construction. Congested road in Chhindwara

municipality are as follows in table 5.2 and some of the photographs of the same is enclosed as

5.3.3. Impact on Existing Utility Services

The road excavation activities may damage the underground water pipelines or electricity

poles/cables in the vicinity of the site. This will lead to water supply interruptions, disruption in


58 | P a g e

electricity supply and will involve expensive repair costs. Flooding of areas could also occur.

Officials of ULB stated that they may receive some complaints about water line breakage during

the construction phase. With no other alternative source readily available, people may have to

buy water from private tanks till the service is restored to normal. In such case a provision has

been made in ESMP that water will be supplied through tankers by Chhindwara Municipal

Corporation in the disrupted areas and it becomes the responsibility of contractor to restore the

utilities as soon as possible. Core area of Chhindwara town has congested lane, as laying of

sewerage pipes need depth and width, the damage of the public amenities /personally build

temporary religious structure likely to be get effected.

5.3.4. Potential impacts Due to Sludge disposal during operation phase

Sludge handling and disposal may lead to contamination of soil & Water, Occupational

Health and safety on workers and leakage of sludge etc. At the STP sewage sludge will need

to be removed from the active treatment plant periodically. Sludge will be compressed

through centrifuge. Most of the moisture from the sludge is taken out during this process.

Centrifuged sludge will also be allowed to dry out naturally. Design includes arrangements

for recirculation the leachate to the STP process. This ensures about 95% removal of E –

Coli and other harmful bacteria from the effluent. Sludge shall be tested for heavy metals

and other chemicals. It shall be dried on site (area to be specified for this on site). Site shall

be raised, with cutoff drains (drain leachate to be taken back to STP for treatment) & shall

be covered on top (for weather protection). After drying, this shall be sent in covered vehicle

to trenching yard Khasra No. 14/5, detailed sludge disposal plan is enclosed (Appendix 21).

This is the temporary arrangement for disposal of sludge in future it will be developed as

sanitary landfill.

5.3.5 Impact of COVID-19 with mitigation measures

Following mitigation measures will be ensured at the project site to ensure that site is safe during

COVID time:

1. Contractors should ensure that contracted workers have medical insurance, covering

treatment of COVID-19.

2. Expats or transient workers should adhere to national requirements and guidelines with

respect to COVID-19.

3. Expats or transient workers coming from countries/regions with cases of the virus:

➢ Should not return if displaying symptoms

➢ Should self-isolate for 14 days following their return

4. For self-isolation, workers should be provided with a single room that is well-ventilated

(i.e., with open windows and an open door). If a single room is not available for each

worker, adequate space should be provided to maintain a distance of at least 1 m between

workers sharing a room. Workers in isolation should limit their movements in shared

space, for example through timed use of shared spaces (such as kitchens and bathrooms)

with cleaning prior to and after use of the facilities. Visitors should not be allowed until


59 | P a g e

the worker has shown no signs and symptoms for 14 days, and the number of staff

involved in caring for those in isolation should eb kept to a minimum.

5. Healthcare professionals and cleaners should visit each day (wearing the appropriate PPE

and observing hygiene requirements and make appropriate arrangements for supplying

food and water to the kitchens for the workers in isolation.

6. Ensure medical facilities are stocked with adequate supplies of medical PPE, as a

minimum:

➢ Gowns, aprons

➢ Medical masks and some respirators (N95 or FFP2)

➢ Gloves (medical, and heavy duty for cleaners)

➢ Eye protection (goggles or face screens)

7. Medical staff at the facilities should be trained and be kept up to date on WHO advice

and recommendations on the specifics of COVID19

8. Display appropriate warning signs (in Hindi and English) across the site; use simple

graphics to convey the message.

9. Have emergency contact numbers displayed across the site.

10. Ensure that all sites are enclosed with fences / compound walls leaving no leeway for

unauthorized entry; if possible, with security personnel

11. The medical staff/management should run awareness campaigns and posters on site

advising workers:

✓ how to avoid disease spread (cough/sneeze in crook of elbow; keep 1m or more away,

sneeze/cough in tissue and immediately through tissue away, avoid spitting, observe

good hygiene)

✓ the need to regularly wash hands with soap and water – many times per day

✓ to self-isolate if they think they may have come in contact with the virus

✓ to self-isolate if they start to display any symptoms, but alert and seek medical advice

12. Wash stations should be provided regularly throughout site, with a supply of clean water,

liquid soap and paper towels (for hand drying), with a waste bin (for used paper towels)

that is regularly emptied.

13. Wash stations should be provided wherever there is a toilet, canteen/food and drinking

water, or sleeping accommodation, at waste stations, at stores and at communal facilities.

Where wash stations cannot be provided (for example at remote locations), alcohol-based

hand rub should be provided.

14. Enhanced cleaning arrangements should be put in place, to include regular and deep

cleaning using disinfectant of catering facilities/canteens/food/drink facilities,

latrines/toilets/showers, communal areas, including door handles, floors and all surfaces

that are touched regularly (ensure cleaning staff have adequate PPE when cleaning

consultation rooms and facilities used to treat infected patients)

15. Other measures (such as working water sprinkling systems at crushers and stock piles,

covered wagons, water suppression or surfacing of haul roads etc.) should be used for


60 | P a g e

dust suppression on site before relying upon the use of dust masks (which could

unnecessarily reduce the availability of N95/FFP2 masks for use by medical staff

performing some duties)

16. Ensure that the designs for medical facilities also consider the collection, segregation and

treatment of medical waste.

17. Projects should develop and commit to specific actions to ensure disadvantaged and

vulnerable groups have effective treatment, whether in medical facilities or in the

community.

18. Extra security during the shutdown period in order to keep site secure (onsite security

staff to be deployed if possible / CCTV /or additional locks and alarms).

19. Conduct a walkthrough of the site including site perimeter assessment to look for access

points and make them secure,

20. Close all labor camps, ensure food and sanitation and wash facility for any worker on site

– ensure that Covid 19 guidelines shared by the bank are followed

21. Disinfect regular work site gates, labour camp entry, point contractor office etc.

22. Inform local police and fire force regarding temporary closure of sites and request their

prompt/immediate support in case they receive any calls for support.

23. Submit a report of actions taken for site closure along with photographs (with date and

time) clearly indicated to PIU and MPUDC.

MPUDC requires outbreaks of Covid 19 virus to be reported. As such, it is important that PIU,

PMC, MPUDC and World Bank are informed of an outbreak on a site, and their advice taken on

coordinating any responses with project management protocols. The PIU may keep teams

informed of any concerns or problems associated with providing care to infected workers (if any)

on sub project sites. Detailed SOPis attached at Appendix 22.

COVID 19 -STRATEGIC PREPAREDNESS AND RESPONSE PLAN


61 | P a g e

MPUDC has also issued detailed Standard Operating Process (SOPs) to respond COVID-19 for all

subprojects running under MPUDC, please refer appendix no. 22

5.3.6. Labour Influx and child Labor

The construction of civil works include specialized jobs such as construction of STP for which

the required labour force, associated goods and services cannot be fully supplied locally for a

number of reasons such as worker unavailability and lack of technical skills and capacity. In such

cases, the labour force (total or partial) would need to be brought in from outside the project

area. This rapid migration of labour to the project area may affect the project area negatively in

the terms of additional burden on public infrastructure such as local social and health services,

utilities such as water and electricity, housing and social dynamics and thus impact on local

communities. Other related issues could be increased risk of spread of communicable diseases

and increased rates of illicit behaviour and crime. Some of the adverse environmental impacts

are illegal waste disposal sites, inappropriate Waste water discharges, and camp related noise,

access roads and land use issues. Such adverse impacts may get amplified by local-level low

capacity to manage and absorb the incoming labor force, and specifically when civil works are

carried out in, or near, vulnerable communities and in other high-risk situations. Labour license

has been obtained by the contractor which is enclosed at Appendix 12. Labour health checkup

camp is also being organized by contractor time to time (Appendix 16).

There are multiple and comprehensive Acts and Rules at both state and national level that set out

the provisions for appropriate working conditions and for good labor management. However,

multiplicity of laws and rules sometimes cause confusion in its applicability in a specific context.

Further in case of contracted workers and Primary labour suppliers the enforcement weakens.

Hence, the contractor has developed labour management procedures and mitigation measures in

the C-ESMP.

This Labour Management Plan (Appendix 24) addresses specific activities that will be

undertaken to minimize the impact on the local community, including elements such as

• Communication and awareness plan on national labour and women harassment laws and its

penal implications, leave provisions and other allowances for workers benefit,

• Worker codes of conduct with respect to manual scavenging, engagement with local

residents, child labour, non-discrimination, harassment of co-workers including women

and those belonging to SC and STs and other minority social groups.

• Training programs on COVID-19, HIV/AIDS and other communicable diseases, etc.

• Workers’ Camp Management Plan addressing specific aspects of the establishment and

operation of workers’ camps provided the ULB is unable to cater to the demand for

affordable housing for this additional workforce in terms of rentals, hostels, apartments etc.

• Looking at the availability of labour and other feasibility aspects, no. of labour is restricted to

maximum 70 labors per day and scheduled activities are being performed in both zones.

• Grievance/Complaint handling Mechanism for Chhindwara Sewerage Scheme.

The responsibility for managing these adverse impacts is being clearly reflected as a

contractual obligation of the civil works contractor and supervision consultant, with

appropriate mechanisms for addressing non-compliance.

6. Stakeholder and Public Consultation 6.1 Background

Public consultation is useful for gathering environmental data, understanding likely

impacts, determining community and individual preferences, selecting project alternatives

and designing viable and sustainable mitigation and compensation plans. Extensive public

consultation meetings for the Chhindwara Sewerage Project took place while undertaking

ESA study. The main objective for the consultation process was to involve the community

at the very early stages so as to identify likely negative impacts and find ways to minimize

negative impacts and enhance positive impacts of the project.

6.2 Objectives of the Public Consultations

The overall goal of the consultation process was to disseminate project information and to

incorporate the views of the project beneficiaries and Project Affected Persons (PAPs) in

the design of the mitigation measures and a management plan. The specific aims of the

consultation process are to:

The main objectives of community consultations were to:

a) To provide clear and accurate information about the project to the beneficiary

community;

b) Obtain the main concerns and perceptions of the population and their representatives

regarding the project;

c) Obtain opinions and suggestions from the likely affected communities on their preferred

mitigation measures; and

d) Identify local leaders with whom further dialogue can be continued in subsequent stages

of the project.

e) Improve project design and, thereby, minimize conflicts and delays in implementation;

f) Facilitate the development of appropriate and acceptable entitlement options;

g) Increase long term project sustainability and ownership

Public sensitization and meetings were held within project area from 28th April 2016 to

30th April 2016 (included in ESA report) and 23rd July 2018 to 24th July 2018 with the

help of respective local administration and the elected representatives. A total of 13

meetings during ESA preparation phase and 12 consultation meetings were held during

execution as shown in Table 6.1A and 6.1B. Key findings of these meetings are presented

in Table 6.2. The attendance lists is presented in Appendix 4. The public consultations

photographs during execution of the project are enclosed as Appendix 6. Representation

of all categories, genders and different income level groups in these meetings was ensured,

the share of female participation in these meetings was 39.16%.

During the series of public consultation, public including local shop keepers showed their

willingness to support/ readiness for the subproject. They discussed existing scenario with

respect to sanitation and sewerage services, absence of sewer networks and its impact on

the life and health of locals etc. Existing Household toilets are mainly based on septic

tanks and the sewer is flowing into the open drains of city. The scheme was and the

Possible interruption in commercial activity, improvement in environment, health and

hygiene etc. were discussed in detail. Mitigation against the dust and traffic management


63 | P a g e

during excavation were informed to the local shop keepers. However, the local citizen was

of the view that prior information (2 to 3 days before start of the civil works) may be

given to the people of respective wards.

Project designing and location has also been suitably modified after the public

consultation like STP site has been shifted to Sarra from Koladhana due to the public

feedback during consultation regarding the Koladhana as submergence area.

6.3 Key Recommendations

Key Recommendations of Stakeholders Consultations are summarized below:

Community showed concern that in the absence of sewerage system in the town, stagnant pools

of sewage can be seen in the entire town which is not only visibly disturbing but also lead to

pollution and mosquito menace, causing many health problems, and hence welcomed the efforts

of ULB.

Physical relocation and resettlement should be minimized. Efforts should be made to prevent

loss of access to livelihood activities. Safety is an important issue especially for children,

women and cattle and therefore utmost safety measures must be provided during civil

construction works. Accidents need to be controlled through various safety measures. The

participants emphasized the provision of diversions and aligning the way in the interest of

community safety and environmental protection, repeatedly.

Special care should be taken if any structure came in the alignment in case of removing or

shifting the sacred trees, temples, mosques and other places of cultural and historical

significance (by following the rituals and customs of community concerned). Septic tanks

coming under road ROW or in encroached part, tanks, and other traditional sources of surface

water may get affected during excavation it has to be restored timely.

Further, it was revealed that the scheme is good from sanitation point of view and they would

like to make use of this scheme for cleanliness of their houses/streets. Most of the households

were found ready for getting sewer connections as presently they are facing lot of problems

due to water logging in the entire locality.

Local people are very much interested in implementation of this scheme in this locality /area

but their major concern was about the pakka road which has already been constructed recently,

will be again destroyed by digging trenches for laying the pipe line. It will create lot of

problems to them in their accessibility.

Outcome of Women’s Participation in Focus Group Discussions

In total 10 focus group discussions were conducted especially with women in the fringe areas

and in slum areas of Chhindwara town. Focus groups were carried out as group meetings with

women residents during which the participants were given the possibility to discuss and

contribute to specific information. Some of their specific concerns are summarized below:

Women discussed many health issues & unhygienic environment for them and their family

members. Women told that they gave consent of construction of individual toilet through

Swachchh Bharat mission. They were also ready to connect it to sewer line.

Some other concerns/issues were raised by the women group such as Women from poor

families indicated that they should be given work opportunities during construction as casual

labor or at project offices, which would help them earn during implementation period.


71 | P a g e

Some women suggested that they will operate individual / family enterprise by opening small

tea stalls, shops/eateries to provide meals to the construction officials /temporary labourers

coming from outside. This will enhance their family income as well as their entrepreneurial

skill, which may be useful in future.

6.4 Summary of Incorporation of Public Concerns in the Designs

• Site for STP is changed from Koladhana to Village Sarra.

• One SPS at Bail Bazar is reduced.

• The network design is done in such a manner that maximum depth of excavation in the

town is restricted to 4.8m. This will make the working more feasible (as the working space

required will be less) in narrow streets.

• Excavation needed in more than 70% of the network is only up to 3m.

• Details from various stakeholders (having underground utilities) is being continuously

obtained (an ongoing process with laying of network) so that damage to underground

utilities specially water supply network, is restricted to minimum extent.

• The work of laying network will be done in small stretches of 100 to 250 m and planks at

every 50 m will be kept over the excavated portions so that maximum access is provided to

the houses and shops etc. without affecting their daily routine or income.

7.2 Monitoring and Evaluation

Monitoring is an important tool in establishing the success or failure of a project in regards to compliance to environmental

safeguards. Evaluation is also important in assessing the achievement of the mitigation measures set out in the Environmental

Management Plan, performance and efficiency of the project in regards to ESMP. Monitoring and evaluation process will involve

the assessment of the following benchmarks:

d) The implementation process of guidelines stipulated in the ESMP

e) Evaluate impact of the project to the environment and social setting of Chhindwara Town

f) Monitoring of the involvement of the community through public consultations in decision makings and the implementation

of the project

Project implementation involves various interventions to achieve the objectives of providing safe, clean and adequate on

sustainable basis and improving health and sanitation conditions in the city. Simultaneously, to protect and improve the

environmental conditions to achieve the goal, various mitigating measures would be taken up. Table 7.3 presents the proposed

environmental monitoring plan while Table 7.4 presents the cost information of the environmental monitoring.

8. Tribal Vulnerability Identification and Assessment

8.1 Distribution of Scheduled Tribes in Madhya Pradesh in Relation to India

The tribal population of Madhya Pradesh increased to 15,316,784 in 2011 from

12,233,474 in 2001.The decadal growth rate during this period is 25.20 percent. The trends in the population of the Scheduled Tribes by residence (total, Rural and Urban)

for Census Years 1961- 2011 shows that the percentage of Scheduled Tribes Population

in the Rural Areas (11.3 percent) much higher that Urban Population (2.8 percent). In Madhya Pradesh certain areas have been declared as scheduled area as Specified by the

Scheduled Areas under the fifth Schedule of Indian Constitutions2. List of Schedule

Areas and Schedules Tribes in Madhya Pradesh is provided in Appendix 3 and

Appendix 2 respectively. 8.61 percent of the Indian population is classified as ST. In

comparison to the national figure, Madhya Pradesh has 14.7 percent of its populations classified as ST.

Chhindwara Municipal Corporation area is not falling under Scheduled V areas

declared by Government of India.

8.2 Presence of Indigenous People.

The identification of Indigenous people in project area done on the basis of secondary

information:

1. Share of scheduled tribe population in project area as per census 2011and

2. declaration of scheduled V areas by Ministry of Tribal Welfare, GoI.

On the basis of these two information’s the share of scheduled tribe and vulnerable

composition in project area given in Table 8.1 and Chhindwara Municipal Corporation

is not coming under scheduled V area declared by GoI.

8.3 Public Consultation

During the entire planning phase, an effort has also been made to help people including all

castes & tribes, understand the positive impacts and benefits from the project for them in

terms of better connectivity and linkage with the surrounding areas, reduction in the

problems, minimization of health risks through provisions of good services of quality

supply, underpasses, median control and other design interventions, improvement in the

economy of the people, better access to health, education facilities in the region. The

process has helped in building confidence amongst the Indigenous people of different

wards and mainstreamed them in the process and making them partners in the project. For

consultation the wards were selected on the basis of highest population of SC/ST in CMC.

During consultation process participation of Indigenous people was also ensured. The

number of Tribal and vulnerable people participated in consultation is presented in Table

8.3.

8.3.1 Key Issues identified during Consultations

As stated above, the participation of vulnerable people was also ensured during public

consultations and thus, the key issues identified during consultation with vulnerable

people are same as identified in the stakeholder consultations. The main issues are:

• Few people having individual toilets with septic tanks, they haven't showed

willingness in project as they have view that Sewer connection damage their

tanks in Chhindwara Municipal Corporation.

• People complaint about contaminated water due to leakage in septic tanks of

some houses.

• Those having individual toilets demanded connection to their toilets.

• Safety measured during excavation must be ensured as some working couples

leave their small children at home.

8.3.2 Conclusion

On the basis of social Impact screening, identification, consultations as per characteristics

outlined in OP 4.10 indicated the identities and cultures of Indigenous peoples are

inextricably linked to the lands on which they live and the natural resources on which they

depend. However, both circumstances are not with ST people present in Chhindwara

town, so on the basis of this criteria they are not categorized as Indigenous people.

Hence policy OP 4.10 not triggered for this sub-project.

8.4 Other Vulnerable Population

The scheduled caste, Women headed household, destitute & disabled are being considered

as vulnerable groups. The population of Scheduled caste in Chhindwara comprise of

13.84% of total population.

8.5 Strategy for addressing of Tribal and Vulnerable group through participation

The strategy for addressing concerns relating to tribal and vulnerable groups identified

through participation is presented below. This strategy is to be applied during

implementation of the subproject:

a) Free, prior informed Consultations and information disclosure is to ensure that the

priorities, preferences, and needs of the tribal and vulnerable groups have been taken

into consideration adequately. With that objective in view, a strategy for consultation

with tribal and vulnerable communities and their elected representatives will be

developed so that these are conducted in a participatory manner.

b) Beneficiaries will be actively engaged in the project cycle and feedback of

consultations with tribal and vulnerable people will be reflected in the project

design, followed by disclosure. Their participation in project planning will inform

project design, and they should be convinced of their benefits from the project. The

awareness material prepared will be translated into the local language of the tribal


107 | P a g e

and vulnerable people and made available to them.

One project information disclosure (PID) brochure will be prepared, translated into a

language understandable to the tribal people, and distributed among them. Budget

included in ESMP.

c) Project Monitoring Indicators will be designed to monitor project impact as

beneficiaries. The regular participation of groups ensured through the monitoring

Indicators.

8.6 Inclusion of Tribal and Vulnerable Population during Implementation

Implementation comprise of gaining continued support of the tribal and vulnerable

people in the project area, during project implementation.

Free prior informed consultations during implementation stage will be carried out at two

levels

a) consultation with communities for broad support for the project.

b) for participation in capacity building and awareness generation activities for

mainstreaming. (MPUDC is in the process of appointing Non-Government

Organization for this purpose)

9. Contractor’s Role in Grievance Redressal Mechanism

As per the contract, setting up of Grievance Redressal cell i.e. provision of computer etc.

is within the scope of work of contractor. Complaints will be received in various manner

as under:

• Boxes ( at ULB office, Site office, Bus stand)

• In the office of contractor or ULB or PIU

• Through email and phone ( phone number will be given in GRC box)

• CM helpline

Contractor’s services are aligned to the project GRM and that the Contractor has

adequate mechanisms to ensure that any complaint received by the contractor is recorded,

addressed (if it is within the scope of the contractor to address the same), information

forwarded to the GRC, etc. and complaint is closed. Contractor is obligated to provide

information that is required by the PIU to ensure smooth functioning of the project GRM.

Major type of grievances along with their timelines for resolution are as follows:

Nature of Complaint Duration to attend

Accident Immediate

Site safety traffic signage etc Within 5 hrs to 2 days

Road restoration To be decided in discussion with

PIU/ULB (max. 7 days in case of

pipe is laid or tested)

Utility breakage viz water pipeline,

telephone line, electric line etc

Within 1-2 days

Quality related PIU to decide

Labour related issues Max. 7 days

Others To be decided by PIU depending

upon the severity of grievance.

Sincere efforts will be made to resolve grievances through participatory process with the

community and the respective ULBs, within time limit.

Closure of the Complaint

After the receipt of complaint, the contractor will resolve the grievance within the specified time

limit. However, if the issue is not resolved within time or in case the timeline given is not

adequate in opinion of contractor; he will inform the PIU accordingly. In such case, the

contractor will also consult with PIU to arrive at an agreed timeline. This will also be recorded.

After the completion of work on contractor’s part, he will inform the PIU & PMC official who

will further reconcile with the aggrieved telephonically and record whether the grievance is

satisfactorily resolved.

The format for Grievance Redressal Format for the complaints received has been appended in

Appendix 25.

10. Conclusion and Recommendations

The Environmental Social Assessment (ESA) Study was carried out based on field assessments

and public consultations with the community who are likely to benefit or to be affected by the

proposed Project and the Proponent in compliance with the World Bank environmental policies

and EIA Notification 2006. The project report of the proposed sub-project for Chhindwara City

after environment and social analysis concludes that the project has overall positive benefits on

the life and environment of the people. There has been no reported land acquisition or

livelihood losses to be caused under this project. As per environmental and social management

framework guidelines of MPUDP, Environmental and Social Assessment, with a Generic

Safeguard Management Plan was conducted for addressing possible issues/ concerns arising

from proposed project.

The sewerage network will provide improved environmental conditions due to the contained

handling of wastes, leading to improved public health conditions and will likely reduce the

average medical expenses of the residents in the project areas. Because of the sewer line

connection, all the waste water will be collected and directed to treatment plant, which only

after treatment will be disposed off to the river, hence decreasing the pollutant load in the river.

Connection to sewer lines will enhance the aesthetic value of the area, as there will be more

cleanliness and no wastewater discharge to open area. This will also lead to appreciation in the

property value. This will eventually lead to increase in standard of living of the people in the

project site.

As per the DPR the Land which was selected for STP was located at Koladhana Near Bodri

Nallah in ward no 33 Khasra No. 678, having an area of 1.8 Ha., but as most part of this land

came under the submergence of Bodri Nallah, and a part of the land was encroached, hence it

was not feasible to construct the STP at Koladhana and after studying the various options for the

STP the location at Sarra in ward no 35, Khasra no 126,128 and 129 having an area of 2.851 ha

was selected and thus the location was finally changed from Koladhana to Sarra.

The DPR envisaged 2 SPS – one at Bail Bazar and one at Koladhana (as MPS). However, after

detailed investigation during Physical survey and the change of site for STP, the SPS at Bail

Bazar is no more required. The Sewage of Zone 1 will flow to MPS through gravity.

There are no environmentally sensitive areas (like wildlife sanctuaries etc.) in or near sub-

project area. However, the proposed STP land is under forest land for which the permission for

diversion of the forest land is sought from the Forest Department which is in advance stage and

the same will be received shortly.( refer Appendix 14 and 15 ) Also there are no archeological

and historical protected areas/ sites within or near the town. There are no permanent adverse

impacts on assets and livelihood anticipated, hence no ARAP is required as per ESMF. Only

minor damage to road side properties and loss of income for certain days and locations during

construction phase may be identified. Such impacts shall be assessed by D(R)BO contractor and

this ESA and SMP will be updated and approved by MPUDC. In Project area, no indigenous

people are identified meeting the requirement of IPMF, so no separate IPP is required. Hence

the impact identified are mostly related to construction and operation phase. However, a

strategy for addressing concerns relating to tribal and vulnerable groups has been identified and


110 | P a g e

is to be applied during subproject implementation.

The subproject is unlikely to cause significant adverse impacts because: (i) most of the

individual components involve straightforward construction and operation, so impacts will be

mainly localized; (ii) in most cases the predicted impacts are likely to be associated with the

construction process and are produced because the process is invasive, involving excavation,

obstruction at specific construction locations, and earth movements; and (iii) being located

mainly in the already constructed facilities and built-up area will not cause direct impact on

terrestrial biodiversity values. The potential adverse impacts that are associated with design,

construction, and operation can be mitigated to standard levels without difficulty through proper

engineering design and the incorporation or application of recommended mitigation measures

and procedures.

Therefore, the ESA report has been amended (after draft design and drawing) and submitted by

the DBO contractor.

Appendix : 21 Sludge Disposal Plan

Introduction

Sewage sludge consists of by-products of wastewater treatment. It is a mixture of water,

inorganic and organic materials, removed from wastewater coming from various sources

(domestic sewage, industries), storm water runoff from roads and other paved area, through

physical, biological, and/or chemical treatments. Sewage sludge is also referred to as bio-solids.

The unit wastewater is determined considering the proposed improvements to the Water Supply

System, the usage from ground water sources and an appropriate return factor. Infiltration is also

considered and converted to a unit rate. Overall calculations are presented in Table-1.

Table 1 : Per Capita Sewage Generation (for Core area and 7 villages)

Total per capita water supply 135 lpcd

Sewage generation at 80% of the total water supply 108 lpcd

Add for infiltration (10% of wastewater quantity) 10.8 lpcd

Total unit sewage rate being admitted to system 118.8

lpcd

Due to topography and sparse distribution of population, whole Chhindwara Municipal

Corporation (CMC) area cannot be provided with sewerage system without compromising

depths or high numbers of SPS. Additionally, population density is very low in outer areas that

will lead to solid deposition inside sewers. Hence, only part of the villages that can be connected

to city sewerage by gravity is considered. Hence, the proposed "Sewerage Network and STP"

project of Chhindwara Municipal Corporation (CMC) envisages dividing whole town in two

clusters:

Core city and 7 adjacent villages

17 villages merged with CMC in January 2015.

It is proposed to set up 28 MLD capacity sewage treatment plant (STP) in first cluster which is

further divided in two zones based on the topography and from the point of view of techno-

economical collection system and easy maintenance and operation (refer Figure-1). The DPR

envisages construction of Sewage Pumping Station SPS to pump the Sewage collected from

Zone 1 and Zone-2 to the main trunk leading to STP.


171 | P a g e

Figure-1: Zonation of Chhindwara CMC Area

Proposed Sewerage collection, convey & treatment System

For sewage collection the whole considered area has been divided into two zones. Zone 1 design

population in the year 2048 is 115,020 and Zone 2 population is 175,899. Considering the

techno-economics, for pipes up to 300 mm diameter, has been taken as DWC and above 300 mm

NP-3 concrete pipe has been taken. The minimum diameter of pipe taken is 150 mm and with a

minimum cover of 1.0 m. The maximum diameter of pipe is 1000 mm and depth are 4.8 m. The

total network length is 305.142 km. The details are given in Table-2. Detailed flushing plan is

enclosed as appendix 23.

At every 30 m length and change in alignment manhole has been proposed. At certain point

where self-cleaning velocity during initial period is much less than desirable 0.6 m/s; flushing

system is proposed to be constructed. where it will flow up to SPS through gravity. From SPS it

will be pumped to STP by pumping main of DI K-9 of 2.5 km. The proposed Sewerage network

in Chhindwara as Shown in Figure-2.

A 28 MLD capacity sewage treatment plant (STP) is shall be construct to ensure that liquid

effluent received during the design period is treated as per standard of CPCB and discharged into

nearby water body. STP should have enquired treatment unit operations comprising of following

units.

Grit removal Unit

Sequential batch reactor (SBR) – C-TECH

C-Tech is a CYCLIC ACTIVATED SLUDGE TREATMENT process. It provides highest

treatment efficiency possible in a single step biological process.

The C-TECH – System is operated in a batch reactor mode this eliminates all the inefficiencies

of the continuous processes. A batch reactor is a perfect reactor, which ensures 100% treatment.

Two or more modules are provided to ensure continuous treatment. The complete process takes

place in a single reactor, within which all biological treatment steps take place sequentially.

No additional settling unit, secondary clarifier is required

The complete biological operation is divided into cycles. Each cycle is of 3 – 5 hrs duration,

during which all treatment steps take place. The Basin operation stages are depicted in Figure-3.

C hlorination system

Treated sewage from SBR basin flow by gravity into1 unit chlorine contact tank through channel

where chlorine is added for disinfection at suitable dosing rate with 2 numbers of chlorinators

to achieve the desired Fecal Coli-Form Standard.

S ludge Handling Devices

A sludge sump pump is provided to collect sludge generated from SBR and 3 sludge pumps

(2W+ 1 SB) are installed to pump the Sludge. Three numbers of (2W + 1 SB) mechanical dewatering

device are provided to dewater the sludge. Polyelectrolyte is dosed online at the inlet of

centrifuge to enhance sludge dewatering efficiency.

Estimation of Sludge Generation

In Sewage about 99.99% water and 0.01% solid will present. Solid part of sewage is generally

called as sludge, its separation process will be carried out at all stages of treatment, mainly in

Secondary treatment. In physical treatment all floatable particles are separated by screen

chamber and grit particles allow to settle and separated., settled sludge convey to centrifuge

sump. In biological treatment sludge is generated by settlement of activated microorganisms and

nutrients. Partial amount of sludge recirculated in treatment remaining sludge pump in to

centrifuge sump. The details of sludge generation are given in Table-3.

Methodology of landfilling

Waste for land filling will be compacted in thin layer using heavy compactors to achieve high density of

the waste. Landfill cell will be covered at the end of each working day with minimum 10 cm of soil, inert

debris or construction materials Prior to commencement of monsoon season, an intermediate cover of 40-

45 cm thickness of soil will be placed on the landfill with proper compaction and grading to prevent

infiltration during monsoon. proper drainage will be constructed to divert runoff away from the active cell

of the landfill. After completion of landfill, a final cover will be designed to minimize infiltration and

erosion.

The specification of final cover is as follows: -

Top cover will have barrier soil layer comprising of 60 cm of clay or amended soil with permeability

coefficient lesser than 1X10-7 cm/sec. On top of the barrier soil layer, there will be drainage layer of

15cm. On top of drainage layer, there will be vegetative layer of 45 cm to support natural plant growth

and minimize erosion.

Transportation

Transport of liquid sludge through tank truck and dewatered sludge in dump trucks are the most

commonly used methods During first decade generation of sludge will be lesser than next decades. In

Centrifuge unit arrangements are made in a way that sludge cakes fall directly in the tractor trolly from

centrifuge unit. Trucks are then transported to the disposal site.

Appendix :23 Flushing Arrangement Plan for Chhindwara Sewerage

System

A. Need for Flushing

Self-cleansing velocity is not achieved at initial sewer of Chhindwara, the

major reason is population load on the sewerage system, which is less. In

second stage to overcome self-cleansing velocity problem, the minimum

diameter of sewer pipe is considered as 150 mm and maximum slope is

generally considered as 1 in 200 & 250 in this pipe, which is steeper slope.

Even after steep slope provision self-cleansing velocity is not achieved at

initial sewers, therefore, to overcome this problem flushing points are provided

which are mentioned in the design sheet. It is to mention that as per sewer

design (zone1 and 2) for sewer diameter 250 mm and above, 100% self-

cleansing velocity is achieved.

B. Manhole in which flushing required

The Chhindwara sewerage system is divided in two zones and as per approved

design of Chhindwara sewerage system, manhole in which flushing is required

is mentioned in design sheet. In Zone – 1, out of 3230 manholes flushing is

proposed in 273 manholes and in Zone – 2, out of 8380 manholes flushing is

proposed in 1222 manholes. Total number of Manholes required flushing as

per design are 1495, After detailed survey of all 1495 manholes at site level it

is found that about 1252 Manholes, Property Chambers are connecting more

than one septic tank and achieves required self-cleansing velocity therefore

remain 243 Manholes mentioned in Appendix c&d, self-cleansing velocity

achieved by using of Mobile tankers and STP effluent as the source of water

supply.

The Chhindwara sewer system is designed in tree structure and on header

where velocity is less flushing is provided. Example - For Zone - 2 flushing is

provided on Manhole no. 1, 16 and 19 and all falls in Manhole no 4 so till

manhole no 4 effectively three flushing are done. This is general case in

complete Chhindwara sewerage system. As per IS-4111 Part 2, the

approximate quantity of water for different diameter of pipes is given over the

length of 75 to 90 meters. The quantity of flushing water with slope and

diameter is provided in CPHEEO manual for which length b/w two

consecutive flushing points in simultaneous conduits is not provided.

C. Quantity of Water for Flushing

As per CPHEEO manual, the quantity of water needed for flushing is tabulated below

Quantity of water needed for flushing


191 | P a g e

Quantity of Water in Liters

Slope 200 mm 250 mm 300 mm

1 in 200 2300 2500 3000

1 in 130 1500 1800 2300

1 in 100 1300 1500 2000

1 in 50 500 800 1000

1 in 33 400 500 700

As Chhindwara sewer system is designed for minimum 150 mm diameter of

sewer therefore as per above table about 2000 lit water per manhole will be

required for flushing of manhole. The flushing shall be done once in the 24

hours.

D. Proposal for Flushing

The clause of agreement for flushing arrangement is written as follows –

“7. Flushing Arrangements: -

7.1 Where it is not practicable to obtain gradient in the sewers, steep enough to

give self-cleansing velocity, especially at the top ends of branch sewers which

receive very little flow initially, it will have to be flushed occasionally at

suitable points to keep it reasonably clean from deposition and clogging. In this

regard, the contractor shall consider one or a combination of options such as

(a) construction of special flushing tank (manually operated or automatic

flushing tanks) at suitable points in sewer line, (b) controlled admission of a

limited amount of surface water in sewer line at required point, (c) construction

of flushing manholes at suitable points, (d) use of mobile water tankers to flush

at suitable points following pre-determined schedule considering the growth of

connections and flow, and (e) sewer cleaning equipment, and submit

methodology for keeping the sewers reasonably clean. Sewage treated to the

effluent standards prescribed can also be utilized for transportation by tankers

or using it by other means for flushing purposes. The contractor shall identify

suitable points in the sewerage system pursuant to the methodology submitted

in the technical submission and the number of points keeping in view the

Performance Standards (Fourth Schedule of OMSA) as acceptable to the

owner.”

As per above clause, point (a) construction of flushing tanks is not feasible as

the structure will be placed above ground and majorly the road is narrow at

flushing point locations this will obstruct the traffic and secondly these for

filling of flushing tanks separate pipe line / tankers will be required. Point (b)

surface water will not be available throughout the year the same may be

available for monsoon period only. Point (c) Flushing manholes are also not

suitable as per explanation given for point (a). Point (d) this point is considered

for arrangement of flushing which is explained below


192 | P a g e

We are submitting our proposal for flushing arrangement -

1. If, Septic tank effluent connect to manhole, no flushing proposed as flow

achieved with less velocity also.

The working septic tanks are identified by physical survey and are mentioned

in the sheet enclosed as Appendix 1 and Appendix 2 for Zone 1 & 2.

Flushing is not proposed in these manholes as solids are less in septic tank

overflow so self-cleansing will be achieved with less velocity.

As per Appendix in Zone -1, 223 number manhole and in zone 2, 1047

number manholes receive the septic tank flow therefore flushing arrangement

is not proposed in the same.

2. If, septic tank is not present then, as per s. no. (d) use of mobile water tankers

to flush at suitable points following pre-determined schedule considering the

growth of connections and flow.

The methodology will be as mentioned in the CPHEEO manual by

positioning a butterfly valve at the head sewer mouth in the manhole and is

kept open by an extended handle, which can be operated from ground level

when the manhole cover is opened. After opening the manhole cover, the

valve is closed by a quarter turn and the manhole is filled with water. After

filling, the valve is opened to enable flushing.

As per Appendix, in Zone -1 and Zone – 2 total 243 manholes are considered

for mobile tanker flushing.

Flushing water required per day for flushing for 243 manholes is worked out as

486 KLD (0.486 MLD) (243 x 2000 lit)

E. Water for Flushing

i. Waste water generated at city area is collected and convey to STP,

influent is treated as per standard method to achieve CPCB norms. Required

quantity of effluent will be used for the flushing of each manhole.

ii. Quantity of Water requirement from STP 243X2000 =486 KLD.

F. Plan for Truck Operation

The tanker of 8000 lit will be filled in average of 20 min and tanker of 6000 lit

will be filled in about 15 min. The detailed plan for truck has been worked out

as per location of flushing point to STP. The average running of truck for

flushing of 3 to 4 manholes will not be greater than the 4 km.

As per above description, on an average Time required for truck to fill,

flush 3-4 manholes in 1.5 hours of time therefore,


193 | P a g e

Each truck will cover 20 flushing points in 5 trip per day therefore it can

achieve single shift.

i.e 8 hours.

Appendix :24 Labour Management Procedures

1. INTRODUCTION

The Labour Management Procedures (LMP) is developed to manage and mitigate potential

risks under the Madhya Pradesh Urban Development Project, funded by the World Bank. The

LMP sets out the Project’s approach to meeting state and central government requirements as

well as the objectives of the World Bank’s Environmental and Social Framework.

2. OVERVIEW OF LABOUR USE ON THE SUB PROJECT CHINDWARA

Number of Project Workers: Maximum total number of 70 labour is to be engaged in a day at all

project sites combined including Sewerage Treatment Plant, IPS and sewerage network.

Characteristics of Project labour: Labour Management Plan and procedure applies to all project

workers, weather full time/ Part time, temporary, seasonal or migrant workers. Given the nature

of the project workforce (mostly semiskilled construction labour) and characteristics of the

labour force market in MP, it is likely that the workforce, especially the lower-skilled workers,

are predominantly male. The majority of Labour are locally hired with the exception of a few

skilled workers. Provisions are made for training and Capacity development and hire as many as

possible from local communities where the activities are taking place.

Timing of Labour Requirements: The workers will generally be required full time for the

project duration. Civil Works contract workers will be as per the requirement . Duration of the

engagement of labour will be based on the duration of respective sub-components of the project

or full project tenure.

3. ASSESSMENT OF KEY POTENTIAL LABOUR RISKS

Potential Labour Risks:

Labour risks associated with contracted workers at subproject level: Subprojects is being

implemented by M/S Laxmi Civil Engineering Pvt. Ltd. and most contracted workers are

being hired locally. All contractors are having written agreement for subletting the activities in

line with objective of MP UDP .

Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) risks are low to moderate in the Sewerage Treatment

Plant, and Underground Drainage of Chhindwara . Since the majority of contracted workers are

unskilled and untrained local population, however, risk remains that some incidence may occur

that lead to injuries.

Employment risks: Workers are being hired by the contractor, either directly as project staff

or indirectly as part of contracts with Consultants or service providers. The practice shows that

civil works subcontractors do practice a Labour contract with a lump-sum payment for a certain

type of service or scope of work.

(Remark: Detailed guidelines on OHS are being enclosed as Appendix 26 of C-ESA report) 4. BRIEF OVERVIEW OF NATIONAL LEGISLATION

Following acts are applicable:- • Minimum Wages Act 1948 • Payment of Wages Act, 1936 • The Payment of Bonus Act 1965 • Employees provident fund Act 1952


201 | P a g e

• The Workman Compensation Act, 1923 • Inter-State Migrant Workmen (Regulation of Employment and Conditions of

Service) Act, 1979 • MP Building and other constriction workers Act (Regulation of Employment and Conditions

of Service) 1996. • Sexual Harassment of women at workplace Act, 2013 • Child Labour (Prohibition and regulation) Act,1986 • The contract Labour (regulation and Abolition) Act, 1970

Remark: The Chapter no. 3rd of C-ESA may be referred for more detail information regarding the labour

laws and policies applicable in the project.

5. RESPONSIBLE STAFF

Project Manager of Contractor’s Team are accountable and responsible for all the workers

associated with the project. Social and Environmental specialists of Contractor‘s , Project

Manager of Project Implementation Unit‘s and Team of Project Management Consultants are

jointly responsible for the following : • Implement this labour management procedure. • Ensure that civil works contractors comply with these labour management procedures, and

also prepare occupational health and safety plans before mobilizing to the field. • Ensure the contracts with the contractors are developed in line with the provisions of this

LMP and the project’s ESMF/ESMP. • Monitor contractors and subcontractors’ implementation of labour management procedures. • Monitor compliance with occupational health and safety standards at all workplaces in line

with state and National government labour legislation. • Monitor and implement training on LMP and OHS for project workers. • Ensure that the grievance redress mechanism for project workers is established and

implemented and that workers are informed of its purpose and how to use it. • Have a system for regular monitoring and reporting on labour and occupational safety and

health performance. • Occupational health and safety (OHS) , Training of workers (Tool Box Etc.) are being dealt

by Health and safety officer /Environmental of contractor. 6. POLICIES AND PROCEDURES

• As specified in the labour Code, employment of project workers are based on the principles of non- discrimination and equal opportunity. There will be no discrimination with respect to any aspects of the employment relationship, including recruitment, compensation, working conditions and terms of employment, access to training, promotion or termination of employment. The following measures are being followed by contractors and implement and monitored by the PIU’s & PMC Social Safeguards Specialists, to ensure fair treatment of all labour:

• Recruitment procedures will be transparent, public and non-discriminatory, and open with respect to ethnicity, religion, sexuality, disability or gender.

• Applications for employment will only be considered if submitted via the official application procedures established by the contractors.

• Clear job descriptions will be provided in advance of recruitment and will explain the skills required for each post.

• All workers will have written contracts describing terms and conditions of work and will have the contents explained to them. Workers will sign the employment contract.

• Unskilled labour will be preferentially recruited from the surrounding communities.


202 | P a g e

• The contracted workers will not be required to pay any hiring fees. If any hiring fees are to be incurred, these will be paid by the Employer.

• Depending on the origin of the employer and employee, employment terms and conditions will be communicated in two languages, in the state language and the language that is understandable to both parties.

• In addition to written documentation, an oral explanation of conditions and terms of employment will be provided to workers who may have difficulty understanding the documentation.

• All workers will be 18 years old or above for civil works. • Work hours are set 8 hours a day, 48 hours a week, with a weekly rest day for engaged

labours. 7. AGE OF EMPLOYMENT

• Contractor will ensure that no construction workers under 18 years are employed. • Contractors will be required to verify and identify the age of all workers through proper

documentary evidence. The penalty procedure are being followed if underage workers are found working on the project

8. TERMS AND CONDITIONS

• The employment terms and conditions applying to contractor’s team members are being set out in this document. These internal labour rules will apply to all who are assigned to work on the project.

• Labour wages, hours and other applied provisions are as per the standard labour law and policies. Work hours are set 8 hours a day, 48 hours a week, with a weekly rest day for engaged labours.

9. GRIEVANCE MECHANISM

• A grievance mechanism is a procedure that provides a clear and transparent framework for addressing grievances related to the recruitment process and in the workplace. This typically takes the form of an internal procedure for complaints as well as external process, followed by consideration and management response and feedback system.

• A common grievance mechanism (GM) is already developed by MPUDC for stakeholders including all types of workers to raise workplace concerns. GM is accessible to all labour, worker, employees and community through various means (written, telephone, fax, social media and online through CM Helpline etc). Grievance logbook is maintained in site office.

10. CONTRACTOR MANAGEMENT

• Construction and other contracts include provisions related to labour and occupational health and safety as provided in the World Bank Standard Documents and state/Central Government Legislation.

• Contractor will manage and monitor the performance of contractors in relation to contracted workers, focusing on compliance by contractors with their contractual agreements (obligations, representations, and warranties) and labour management procedures. This includes inspections, and/or spot checks of project locations and work sites as well as of labour management records and reports compiled by contractors. Contractors’ labour management records are being maintained by contractor and reviewed and monitored by PIU and PMC.

Appendix 26: Guidelines for the Management of Environmental, Health and Safety

in the Project construction sites

Background

Madhya Pradesh is geographically the second largest, fifth populous, and eighth most

urbanized state in India. Rapid urbanization in MP has seen sprouting of new urban

settlements across the state, more often close to existing cities. To respond to the

challenges of urbanization, State government undertook an ambitious program with the

support of World Bank called Madhya Pradesh Urban Development Programme

(MPUDP). This program focused on accessing urban sector central schemes, and setting-

up three state missions to respond to the needs of towns not covered under the central

schemes. Madhya Pradesh Urban Development Company (MPUDC) is implementing the

MPUDP in the state.

Construction work can be particularly hazardous and accident prone. Personal protective

equipment, fire safety, electrical safety, confined space entry, emergency preparedness,

biological safety, chemical safety, hazardous waste disposal, vehicle safety and other

precautions are essential for safe construction work.

In this context, the Project Monitoring Unit of MPUDP decided to develop a detailed

guideline to ensure the quality standards for effective management of Environment,

Health and Safety issues in the implementation of World Bank supported MPUDP. All

contractors in projects are responsible for implementing the guidelines in their respective

projects.

These guidelines are not intended to be a step‐by‐step procedure for each activity. It is a

guideline document that outlines general activities, procedures, and requirements for all

the projects throughout the construction phase of the sub projects. These procedures must

always be read and implemented in conjunction with the related Contract Conditions. The

construction works shall be undertaken in accordance with Environmental, Health and

Safety guidelines under the World Bank supported subproject.
