The design review and supervisory consultancy work is awarded to Minconsult international Ltd.

(Malaysia) in association with Associated Consulting Engineers-ACE (Pvt.) Ltd. herein after

referred to as the ‘Consultant’ or the ‘Engineer’.

1.4 Summary of Findings

The construction works are currently in progress and all the Contractors have prepared and

submitted the Site Specific Environmental Management Plan (SSEMP) for each work package,

which has been approved by NHA and ADB.

For N-70 a total of 13 Affected Person Committees (APCs) and for N-50 a total 7 APCs for the

Grievance Redress Committee (GRC) were constituted. The Contractors have provided the

complaints registers in their main base camps. So far only a few major complaints have been

received and all have been addressed accordingly. There are some minor complaints but they

are being investigated and will be resolved amicably.


5

All the Contractors have employed their Health, Safety and the Environment (HSE) Managers

who are regularly visiting the construction sites, workshops, plants, dumping sites and borrow

areas. The HSE Managers are regularly inspecting fire extinguishers, hand and power tools,

machinery, personal protective equipment (PPE) and the general housekeeping for the main

camps facilities and plants.

The HSE Managers also conducted the safety toolbox talks at camps, plants and active

construction sites. In the second half of the year 2017, the Contractors’ HSE Managers of N-70

delivered 38 sessions of safety toolbox talk whilst for N-50 23 similar training sessions were

conducted. All the contractors have provided a mini clinic/dispensary at their main camps as

well as an ambulance and a Paramedic.

The contractors have constructed temporary road diversions to keep the traffic moving during

construction works. These temporary main road diversions and access roads to borrow pits are

being regularly sprinkled with water using water bowsers. Flagmen at major road crossings and

diversions are provided to control traffic and prevent accidents between construction machinery

and other road users. Safety signboards at the constructions sites, plants, workshops and traffic

signboards at the service roads and diversions have been installed at strategic locations.

Earth materials for embankments are obtained from approved borrow pits at 500 m away from

the ROW, as well as from cutting areas. So far 56 borrow pits have been approved on N-70 and

on N-50 the total number of borrow pits are 23.

All the contractors have established their base camps for the residence of their site staff,

general workers and security personnel. They have also established their concrete batching

plants, stores, workshops, steel yards, diesel stations and materials testing laboratories. All

these base camps have been completed and fully operational.

Fire extinguishers are installed at all base camps. PPE’s are provided to workers working at

plants, workshops and construction sites; including safety helmets, masks, safety gloves and

high visibility vests. Construction workers and site personnel are regularly briefed about the

proper use of the PPE’s and their importance.

At the base camps, proper wastewater treatment and solid waste management is being

maintained as per the SSEMP. Wastewater is collected into septic tanks and disposed off into

soak away pits. Solid wastes are collected primarily in waste drums provided at strategic

locations, and then collected to waste collection points for segregation; the reusable and

recyclable materials are collected and the remaining wastes are disposed in the municipal solid

waste disposal sites.

Provision of treated drinking water is being maintained for all the workers and staff at site camps

and construction sites. Monitoring of the air, water and noise quality are being conducted

regularly as per the SSEMP. The quality values of the air, water and noise remained within the

permissible limits.

The overall occupational health and safety measures, implemented by the Contractors

remained reasonable and satisfactory. The general environmental conditions were found to be


6

acceptable as per the approved SSEMP, but further improvements are still possible with regular

and serious monitoring.

Chapter 2

2.0 Environmental Monitoring

The qualitative environmental monitoring is being carried out during construction activities and

verified that they are undertaken in compliance with the requirements set in the EIA/EMP and

Site Specific Environmental Management Plan (SSEMP).

2.1 Noise and Vibrations

Noise monitoring is conducted on a quarterly basis at different locations. Noise level results so

far show that most of the construction activities are being conducted within the permissible

noise limits. All machines that are producing noise beyond the threshold levels, such as

generator sets, are being isolated in order to reduce the noise level. To minimize the noise from

the construction vehicles, all machineries are periodically checked for their noise level and

notified for repairing and maintenance. The results of noise monitoring are attached as

Annexure IV.

2.2 Drinking Water Quality

At the contractors’ base camps, bottled water and water coolers are provided for drinking

purposes for all personnel. This water supply is also provided to workers at the construction

sites. For all other purposes, clean and treated water is provided through pipes from the local

water supply or pumped from wells.

2.3 Wastewater Treatment

Wastewater from washrooms and kitchens are collected and treated through septic tanks and

soakage pits at all the base camps. No wastewater is released directly into fields and irrigation

water channels from any base camps.

2.4 Air Quality

Ambient air quality monitoring is being carried out once in every four months during the

construction, as per the approved EMP.

2.5 Particulate Matter (PM10)

The particulate matter monitoring was started in the month of August 2017. The particulate

matter (PM10) monitoring done at different locations during the construction activities shows that

the level of PM10 are within the standards specified in the approved contract EMP.

Chapter 3

3.0 Environmental Management

All the contractors have prepared and submitted their Site Specific Environment Management

Plan (SSEMP), which has been reviewed and approved by NHA and ADB. The SSEMP is being

implemented strictly at the construction sites.

3.1 Base Camps, Plants and Borrow Pits

The contractors have established their base camps at the following locations:

Item Work Package Contractor Location Area (m2) Distance to ROW (m)

1 ICB-7A (N-70) UJ – XGHEC (JV) Km 26+100 100,000 100 LHS

2 ICB-7B (N-70) MZ (JV) Km 113+900 81,000 900 LHS

3 ICB-3C (N-50) LIMAK-ZKB (JV) Km 38+000 85,000 200 LHS

4 ICB-3D (N-50) MZ (JV) Km 55+900 80,000 50 RHS

At the base camps the contractors have constructed offices, workers accommodations,

washrooms, workshops, steel yards and areas for materials storage, fuel tanks, mosques, first

aid facilities, recreational space and also facilities for the security personnel (FC). They have

also established a dispensary with paramedic staff on fulltime duty at the base camps.

Adequate and relevant first aid medicines and bandages are provided at these dispensaries.

Ground water is used as water for general purpose as well as for drinking after some basic

treatments.

All types of solid steel scrap metal from the steel yards and workshops are collected in

specifically marked bins and are shifted to scrap the yard. The scrap metal is stored and sold in

market when required. Kitchen and office solid wastes are collected in similar manner and sent

to the solid waste collection points (dustbins placed at various points). These solid wastes are

then collected for final disposal at designated places. As far as the matter of collection of used

oil is concerned it is being collected in fuel spill trays from the motor workshops and shifted to

liquid waste collection point on daily basis where these are stored in drums properly covered

with shed and ultimately sold out to oil dealers on quarterly basis or whenever required.

Wastewater generation and treatment, as per the requirements of IEE and the SSEMP, is

carried out at the base camps. All contractors have constructed septic tanks, soakage pit and

small retention manholes system.

The base camps are fenced and security check-posts are available at the entrance. The

kitchen, dining halls and residential of senior staff and labor staff are properly protected from

flies and mosquitoes and by providing steel gaze on windows.


10

Emergency contact numbers, fire extinguishers and sand buckets are provided at the camp

offices, fuelling points, workshops and main stores etc. Mosques are also constructed at the

camps for staff and workers. Workshop area for vehicle maintenance is kept paved to avoid oil

contamination. Oil storage area is also paved and covered with shed. Generators are also

provided at the site.

Environmental Education and Awareness about safety measures and good housekeeping at

steel yard, store area, oil/chemical storage area, and kitchen site are done.

Plants & Workshops

Other facilities such as concrete batching plants, crusher plants as well as asphalt plants have

been erected at the sites. These plants have all been located away from populated areas to

reduce the impact on noise and dust pollutants. Mitigation measures like scrubbers and water

sprinklers have also been installed to reduce dust from the operations of these plants.

Borrow pits

The areas from where soil is being taken for the construction of embankment is called borrow

pits. The location and summary of the approved borrow areas is attached as Annexure-II. The

environmental impacts of borrow areas are under observation during soil excavation,

transportation and restoration. Designated routes are being used during soil transportation.

Service roads and adjacent roads used for the transportation of soil are checked regularly, and

if any damage were caused to the public road, it shall be rectified.

3.2 Soil Erosion

This environmental impact is due to the road construction activities. It occurs due to the clearing

and excavation activities at the project site, as these activities are leading to the soil erosion, or

alteration of soil quality resulting from removal of the topsoil at the site, to some extent.

Mitigation measures adopted to minimize soil erosion include:

• The depth of the borrow pits are being maintained so that the sides of the excavation have a

slope not steeper than 1 into 4.

• Soil erosion along the borrow pits is being monitored to prevent / mitigate impacts on

adjacent lands.

• Borrow pits after excavation of soil will be rehabilitated as per the SSEMP.

3.3 Dust /Air Emissions Monitoring

The construction activities generate dust due to excavation and filling works. Diesel and other

petroleum products used for the operation of construction machinery and transportation

equipment also cause air pollution. The impacts generated from such activities are of certain

significance and proper mitigation measures are being practiced. The workforce always wears

personal protective equipment (PPE) including dust masks, to minimize health hazards. Vehicle

maintenance is regularly done to minimize the impacts of air pollution on the surrounding

environment. Dust suppression is being maintained by sprinkling water on the service road,

diversions and access routes / approach roads to the borrow areas.


11

3.4 Waste Management

3.4.1 Waste Water Management

Wastewater is managed as per the SSEMP; at base camps construction of septic tanks and

soakage pits have been completed in the month of November 2016, respectively therefore

wastewater is managed inside the septic tanks and soakage pits.

3.4.2 Solid Waste Management

All the solid waste generated at the base camps is being collected in waste bins. Solid waste

after collection is being segregated, the recyclable and reusable are collected and the remaining

wastes are disposed of properly at the municipal solid waste dumping sites.

3.5 Occupational Health and Safety Management

The construction activities have certain impacts on the occupational and public health. At the

work site hazards are eliminated/ minimized through engineering controls and administrative

controls, if the controls do not eliminate the hazards appropriate PPEs are being provided to the

workers. Workers and staff are being trained and equipped with the appropriate Personnel

Protective Equipment’s (PPEs) as per their job need.

3.5.1 Emergency Preparedness and Response

Emergency Response preparedness and response plan has been designed as per details given

in the approved SSEMP and being implemented accordingly. The following are the contact

Annexure II: Summary of Borrow Pits

Borrow Areas

Borrow materials are being taken from recommended and approved borrow areas. The

recommended pits for borrowing shall be rehabilitated as soon as excavation of material is finished. The

rehabilitation activity and process will take into consideration the aesthetics of the area and safety of

people, animals and community. Until now no agricultural fields, which exist near to the project sites, are

used as borrow pits.

Restoration of Borrow Pits

Before extraction commences, licenses and permits shall be checked and limits of disturbance

and/or clearing will be clearly marked out on the site before any ground disturbing activity takes place.

This usually requires the sides of the pit to be reshaped with gentle safe grades. All disturbed areas

associated with borrow pits are part of the restoration plan.
