1.1. PUNJAB CITIES GOVERANCE IMPROVEMENT PROJECT (PCGIP)
Government of the Punjab (GoP) with the financial assistance from World Bank (WB) is implementing
Punjab Cities Governance Improvement Project (PCGIP). The project is focused at strengthening of
systems and governance improvement for enhanced service delivery and being implemented in five large
cities (Rawalpindi, Lahore, Multan, Faisalabad and Gujranwala).
The project development objectives are to:
Support the Province of Punjab’s cities in strengthening systems for improved planning, resource
management, and accountability
Improve the capacity to respond promptly and effectively to Crisis or Emergency.
The objective of the PCGIP is to support Punjab’s large cities in strengthening institutional frameworks
and developing systems for improved urban planning, expenditure and accountability and to capacitate
these cities to improve delivery of municipal services in a medium to long term on a more sustainable
basis. The Project has a number of financial, social, economic and environmental benefits, including
institutional development, rehabilitation and improvement of municipal services, better quality of life and
employment generation. In addition a large number of secondary benefits are also likely to accrue in the
medium to long term such as institutional reforms at local level.
1.2. ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK (ESMF)
Environmental and Social Management Framework (ESMF) serves as a guiding document to address the
social and environmental issues during projects implementation covering following phases at: Planning
and design, Construction and rehabilitation, Operation and maintenance, Decommissioning and closure
phases.
Overall objectives of ESMF are to:
Ensure that schemes to be designed and implemented by the Government are environmentally sound
and socially acceptable
Ensure that all the schemes comply with the national regulatory and WB policy frameworks
Internalize and integrate the environmental and social management procedures and processes in the
routine projects/operations/service delivery of CDG’s and city entities
Screening will be the first step of the environmental and social management procedure. Each scheme
during its preparation stage will be screened with respect to environmental and social considerations. The
SECTION 1: INTRODUCTION
Environment & Social Management Plan (ESMP)
The Urban Unit Page 2
Safeguards Specialist will be responsible to carry out this screening. The screening criteria are presented
below.
1.3. ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL SCREENING OF SCHEMES
Environmental Categories: Depending on size, cost, location and the nature, scheme will have varying
impacts on city environment. The rigorousness of environmental assessment requires identifying and
mitigating the impacts, largely dependent upon the complexities of scheme. To facilitate effective
screening, schemes are categorized into three categories viz. E-1, E-2 and E-3.
(i) E-1 schemes are those wherein major environmental impacts are foreseen;
(ii) E-2 schemes are expected to have only moderate environmental impacts; and
(iii) E-3 schemes are the schemes with negligible environmental impacts and hence, these can be
termed as “environmentally benign”.
Since PCGIP funds are exclusive for operation and maintenance and rehabilitation schemes, schemes
falling under E-1 category shall not be funded.
Social Categories: Based on the number of households that may be affected by the scheme, i.e. Affected
Households (AHs) and magnitude of impacts, schemes are categorized as S-1, S-2 and S-3.
(i) S-1 schemes are those schemes that will impact more than 40 households, and are expected to
have significant negative social consequences;
(ii) S-2 schemes are those which will impact less than 40 households and are expected to have
significant social consequences affecting local inhabitants;
(iii) S-3 schemes are not expected to have any significant adverse social impacts;
Since PCGIP funds are exclusively allocated for operation and maintenance and rehabilitation schemes,
thus schemes falling under S-1 and S-2 categories shall not be funded through the project.
1.4. ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL MANAGEMENT PLAN (ESMP)
The type of environmental and social assessment requirements for each scheme will be determined
according to the following criteria:
Schemes having E-1 and S-1 categories: full EIA (or ESIA) will need to be conducted for each
individual scheme. In addition, a Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) will be prepared for each
scheme with S-1 category.
Schemes having E-2 and S-2 categories: Environmental and Social Management Plan (ESMP)
will be prepared for each individual scheme. In addition, an Abbreviated Resettlement Action
Plan will be prepared for each scheme with S-2 category.
Schemes having E-3 and S-3 categories: no further assessment is needed.
Environment & Social Management Plan (ESMP)
The Urban Unit Page 3
ESMPs preparation: For each scheme with E-2 category, ESMP will be prepared by the Environment
& Social Safeguards Specialist at the CDG level. The ESMP preparation will be an integral part of the
scheme preparation/appraisal process, and ESMP will be an integral part of the scheme documentation.
The ESMP will include details of the works to be carried out under the scheme, the site-specific
environmental and social information (baseline), and site-specific and scheme-specific mitigation
measures. The ESMPs will be reviewed and cleared by the DO (Environment) of the respective City.
ESMP Implementation: During the scheme implementation, the mitigation and monitoring measures
included in the ESMP will need to be implemented. The ESMP will be included in the bidding documents
(if the scheme is to be contracted out), and hence it will be included in the contractor’s scope of
work/services. Similarly, if the scheme is to be implemented by the concerned department itself, the
ESMP will be included in the scope of work/services. The ESMP cost will be included in the scheme
implementation cost. Environmental and social monitoring will also be carried out to ensure effective
implementation of the ESMP. First tier of monitoring will be conducted along with the monitoring of the
works being carried out under the scheme. At the second tier, the Safeguards Specialist will carry out spot
checks to ensure ESMP implementation. Checklists prepared on the basis of mitigation measures
proposed in the ESMP will be used for this purpose. Photographic record will also be maintained for this
purpose.
For each scheme with E-2 category 1as per ESMF document, ESMP prepared by the Environment &
Social Safeguard Specialist at the CDG level to ensure ESMF implementation at City level. The ESMP
preparation is an integral part of the scheme preparation/appraisal process, and ESMP will be an integral
part of the scheme contract documentation. The ESMP include details of the works to be carried out under
the scheme, the site-specific environmental and social information (baseline) and site-specific and
scheme-specific mitigation measures and ESMP cost estimation.

2.5. DURATION OF THE PROJECT
Duration of the Project: 03 months
Labors involved: 25-30
2.6. PROVISION OF ALTERNATIVES
As the proposed project is limited to repair/ improvement of road under limited traffic load (mostly light
weight), there is no need for alternatives for this project. Due to proposed project activity, entry/ exit
problem may not occur for the residents as road width is enough for traffic/pedestrians movement. The
impact is temporary and minor in nature. The mitigation measure should be adopted to reduce the impact.

3.1 CITY PROFILE
The Faisalabad district lies from 30-35 to 31-47 0 N latitude and 72-01 to 73 – 400 E longitudes. It is
bounded in the North by Gujranwala and Sheikhupura Districts, in the East by Sheikhupura and Sahiwal
districts, in the south by Sahiwal and Toba Tek Singh districts and in the West by Jhang district.
Faisalabad district has an area of 5,856 sq km and a population of 65,00,000 souls. The climate of the
district touches two extremes. The maximum temperature in summer reaches up to 50 oC or 122 oF and in
winter it may fall below the freezing point. The maximum and minimum temperature in winter is 21oC
and 6oC respectively.
3.2 PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT OF CITY
3.2.1 AIR QUALITY
The degradation of air quality in all the large cities is a major environmental concern these days. Air
pollution levels in urban centers have either crossed safe limits given in the NEQS or have reached the
threshold values. About 60 to 70 % of the deterioration in the air quality is due to the vehicular emissions.
The parameters which have proved to be the major threat are particulate matter and concentration of
oxides of nitrogen that are relatively higher in all the large cities of Punjab. The PM2.5 has shown an
estimated increase of more than 60 % since last 3 years. Further the present road infrastructure cannot
cater the need of growing automobiles flow resulting in the mounting concentrations of NOx and SO2.
There is dire need to adopt strict measures to obviate this issue, which is not only a hazard for the
environment but also to the health and quality of life of the people.
The ambient air quality data for Faisalabad is presented in the Table 3.2.1.

3.2.2 DUST
The roadside dust is one of the most important contributors towards overall atmospheric pollution. This
problem becomes even more significant when we consider it in relation to the poorly maintained roads
loaded with ever increasing motor vehicle traffic especially in urban areas. This result in many adverse
effects especially to the respiratory health of the persons exposed to this dust either because of their
residence or occupation in these areas (Zafar, 20073). During the construction phase of this scheme,
roadside dust can be generated. It can be mitigated by water sprinkling with water bowsers.
3.2.3 NOISE
Noise4 is generally used as an unwanted sound, or sound which produces unpleasant effects and
discomfort on the ears. Noise is considered as environmental pollution, even though it is thought to have
less damage on humans than water, air or land pollution. Generally, problems caused by noise pollution
include stress, hearing loss, sleep disruption etc. During the construction phase of this scheme, noise can
be generated from machinery used in road construction. Mitigation measures have been suggested in
mitigation table 4.1& 4.3 in order to reduce its effects upon human beings.
The general mitigation measures to control noise are:
Control of the noise at source.
Control of the noise in the area of impact (receiver position).
Control of the noise at some convenient intermediate location (i.e. along the transmission path)
between the source and impacted receive.

3.2.4 SOIL PROFILE
The soil of Faisalabad comprises of alluvial deposits 5 having calcareous characteristics. The soil is
generally fertile. Soil profile of scheme area is also fertile. There will be no impact on soil profile of
scheme area as scope of work limited to the repairing of existing metal road surface. No impact on soil
envisaged as no excavation or deep ditching activities are under scope of work of this scheme.
3.2.5 WATER SOURCES6
River Chenab flows about 30 km in the North West while river Ravi meanders about 40 km off the city in
the south east. Lower Chenab canal is the main source of irrigation water, which meets the requirements
of 80% of cultivated land. There is no prominent water channel lies under the scheme. Ground water used
by local community for drinking purposes. There is no prominent water channel lies under the scheme.
Ground water used by local community for drinking purposes.
3.3 BIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENT OF CITY
3.3.1. PARKS AND GARDENS
There are many important parks and gardens in Faisalabad. It
includes Bagh-e-Jinah Park (Company Park), Fun Land, Sindbad,
Amusement Park Faisalabad, Gatwala Forest Park Faisalabad,
Butt Water Land, Aqua land water park, D-Ground Central Park,
Pahare ground, Madina Welfare Society Park etc.
Environmental sensitive areas are more prone towards human
disturbance. For this scheme, no wetland, estuarine, river, protected area and cultural heritage sites lie
within scope of work of scheme area and no significant environmental impacts has been envisaged,
however mitigation measures have been recommended against less significant environmental concerns.
This scheme is environmentally sound & sustainable.
3.3.2. FLORA & FAUNA
Preservation of biodiversity is of global concern, but the causes of loss and their solutions are very often
local in scale. Road development continues to be a major player in the overall reduction of biodiversity,
