mainly comprising of silt has been kept aside. The side slopes of reservoir are being stabilised through compaction and pitching. The excavated earth is being used in fill works of retaining wall of this reservoir. 7. The generation of dust is there from construction material handling such as sand, sub grade and cement. Necessary measures for dust suppression are taken at site as per needs. These measures include water spray and keeping sand and cement inside the cover shed. Keeping sand piles in semi wet form through water spray. 8. At project site no construction vehicles are used except trucks bringing construction materials at site. These trucks/tempos have pollution under control certificates. The only construction equipment used at site is currently mixer, which is Diesel Generator operated. This mixer is operating intermittently and as such there is no issue of air emissions. The contractor has been advised to carry out ambient air quality monitoring at project site to check efficacy of mitigation measures. 9. In the current construction phase of project mixer is the only noise

7. Approach & Methodology engaged for environmental monitoring of the project

15. Continuous monitoring of EMP implementation is being carried out by DSC, PIU and PMU.

16. Concerned staff of DSC and PIU visit the construction sites and report to Team Leader DSC and PMC

about issues/ problems related to environmental non-compliance. Necessary directions, in case of non-

compliance are being issued to the contractors on the site and through letters about the procedures to

resolve the problems/issues or requirements. The Safeguards Staff of DSC conduct regular site visits to

monitor the implementation of safeguards measures on sites.

8. Monitoring of environmental receptors/ attributes

Monitoring basis

17. Monitoring for the implementation of Environmental Monitoring Plan/Management Plan is required to be

done to check if any adverse impact is being caused by the construction activities. The monitoring of

these variables is to be carried out in construction sites within 100 m impact zone of the sub project.

18. The monitoring of environmental variables is to be carried out as per the agreed Environmental

Monitoring Plan.

Type of environmental receptor/ attribute to be monitored

19. The environmental attributes to be monitored include the air, noise and water quality parameters at the

construction sites in sub project sites. The air quality parameters monitored include RSPM (PM10),PM2.5

SO2 and NO2. The water quality parameters include temperature, pH, electrical conductivity (EC),

dissolved oxygen (DO), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), total suspended solids (TSS), total

dissolved solids (TDS) and turbidity. In case of noise the day and night time Leq values are monitored.

Gender

The first speaker was gender expert from ADB, Azizur Rahman who gave the background of gender mainstreaming in ADB

and its policy framework. He also linked gender Action Plan (GAP) with IDIPT output and discussed how to insert gender

component in implementation of projects. It was stressed that GAP is not confined to social sector project or operates on a

standalone mode but rather built into the investment programme as an integral part of it. GAP ensures in increased

participation of women in work, more access to services by women and improved socio economic benefits to women. The

deep rooted value of the difference between male and female in all areas of society has to be bridged and GAP is one such

intervention through which IDIPT aims to address this issue within their limited scope of works.

ADB Expert on Gender continued his input on the second day (21.02.17) explaining the GAP of T2 and T3 monitoring and

reporting formats. The T2 and T3 GAP formats were distributed to all the clusters of participants and were explained the

formats in a nutshell. He tried to get the feedback from the participants through a participatory exercise involving PIU/DSC
