3. Environmental monitoring plan

3.1 The purpose of environmental monitoring

Environmental monitoring activities are designed throughout all the project cycle, but construction and operation phases are the key periods. We aim to find out key factors that cause changes in environmental quality. Environmental monitoring results will be used to evaluate: (1) Get to know current environmental impact and severity, compared with the predicted impact. (2) Monitor the effect of environmental reduction measures and validity. (3) The trend of impact. (4) The overall effectiveness of environmental management plans.

3.2 The implementation of environmental monitoring

At the beginning of project implementation, the PMO, implementing agencies and environmental management consultant should develop a comprehensive project design and monitoring framework to systematically build the various parts of the project's input and output data, and create detailed environmental, social and economic indicators which will be used to determine the environmental, social and economic impact on the project. Under the project design and monitoring framework, baseline data and progress data can reflect the environmental impact and effectiveness of the project.

According to the environmental impact prediction results, the sensitive points will be chose as monitoring points. The monitoring contents are acoustic environment, atmospheric environment, surface water environment. Monitoring factors are chose according to diagnostic factors. Monitoring and analysis methods in Environmental Monitoring technical specifications and EIA standard are used. Monitoring body is the local environmental monitoring stations. The responsible organization is local environmental protection section. And the supervisory authority is Dongying Environmental Protection Bureau.

7. Work plan

7.1 Institutional setup

7.1.1 Environmental management organization

For the better implementation during the construction and operation period, compliance with the relevant national and local environmental laws, regulations, policies and standards, acceptance of the local environmental protection departments’ environmental supervision and management, adjustment and development of environmental plans and objects, the environment-related management activities and monitoring, analysis of pollutants generated during construction and operation period, the proposed project should set a full-time environmental management agency.

As there is difference in the environmental management content between construction and operation period, separate organizations for the two phases should be built respectively. The corresponding management body should be withdrawn after the construction. Then management institutions in operation phase starts to operate. The management work for the two periods can cross according to the actual requirements.

7.1.2 Environmental management agencies during construction phase

Appendix :

Annex Criteria for Environmental Management of Construction Activities

The project involves construction for a constructed wetland, a training building, and for waste and wastewater collection and treatment facilities in rural area. The criteria for environmental management of the above construction activities should include the following:

1.0 Site Selection

The sites for the constructed wetland and the training center have been determined. But the exact lots for some waste and wastewater collection and treatment facilities will be determined at a later stage. The site selection should be chosen based on community needs, with specific lots chosen based on geographic and topographic characteristics. The site selection process involves site visits and studies to analyze, at least: (i) the site characteristics; (ii) national, or municipal regulations affecting the proposed lot; (iii) accessibility and distance from inhabited areas; (iiii) land ownership; (iv) suitability of soils for construction.

2.0 Design

Project design criteria (e..g training center) include, but are not limited to, the consideration of aspects such as heating, ventilation, natural and artificial light energy efficiency, adequate water supply and sanitation systems. The collection and treatment facilities for wastewater and waste in pilot villages should have adequate capacity to avoid pollution.

3.0 Environmental Rules for Contractors

Construction activities could cause negative impacts on to surrounding areas, careful planning of construction activities is critical. Therefore the following rules should be incorporated into all relevant bidding documents, and contracts.

3.1 Prohibitions

The following activities are prohibited on or near the project site:

1. Cutting of trees for any reason outside the approved construction area;

2. Hunting, fishing, wildlife capture;

3. Use of unapproved toxic materials, including lead-based paints, asbestos, etc.

4. Disturbance to anything with architectural or historical value;

3.2 Construction Management Measures

3.2.1 Waste Management and Erosion:

Solid, sanitation, and, hazardous wastes must be properly controlled, through the implementation of the following measures:

Waste Management

1. Minimize the production of waste that must be treated.

2. Identify and classify the type of waste generated. If hazardous wastes are generated, proper procedures must be taken regarding their storage, collection, transportation and disposal.

3. Identify and demarcate disposal areas clearly indicating the specific materials that can be deposited in each.

4. Control placement of all construction waste (including earth cuts) to approved disposal sites (>300 m from rivers, streams, lakes, or wetlands).Dispose in authorized areas all of garbage, metals, used oils, and excess material generated during construction, incorporating recycling systems and the separation of materials.

Maintenance

1. Identify and demarcate equipment maintenance areas (>15m from rivers, streams, lakes or wetlands).

2. Ensure that all equipment maintenance activities, including oil changes, are conducted within demarcated maintenance areas; never dispose spent oils on the ground, in water courses, drainage canals or in sewer systems.

3. Identify, demarcate and enforce the use of within-site access routes to limit impact to site vegetation.

4. Install and maintain an adequate drainage system to prevent erosion on the site during and after construction.

Erosion Control

1. Erect erosion control barriers around perimeter of cuts, disposal pits, and roadways.

2. Spray water on dirt roads, cuts, and stockpiled soil to reduce wind-induced erosion, as needed.

3. Maintain vehicle speeds at or below 10mph within work area at all times.

Stockpiles and Borrow Pits

1. Identify and demarcate locations for stockpiles and borrow pits, ensuring that they are 15 meters away from critical areas such as steep slopes, erosion-prone soils, and areas that drain directly into sensitive water bodies.

2. Limit extraction of material to approved and demarcated borrow pits.

Site Cleanup

1. Establish and enforce daily site clean-up procedures.

3.2.2 Safety During Construction

The Contractor’s responsibilities include the protection of every person and nearby property from construction accidents. The Contractor shall be responsible for complying with all national and local safety requirements and any other measures necessary to avoid accidents, including the following:

6. Post Material Safety Data Sheets for each chemical present on the worksite.

7. Ensure that the removal of asbestos-containing materials or other toxic substances be performed and disposed of by specially trained workers.

8. During heavy rains or emergencies of any kind, suspend all work.

3.2.3 Nuisance and Dust Control

To control nuisance and dust the Contractor should:

1. Maintain all construction-related traffic at or below 15 mph on streets within 200 m of the site.

2. Maintain all on-site vehicle speeds at or below 10 mph.

3. To the extent possible, maintain noise levels associated with all machinery and equipment at or below 90 db.

4. In sensitive areas (including residential neighborhoods, hospitals, etc.) more strict measures may need to be implemented to prevent undesirable noise levels.

5. Minimize production of dust and particulate materials at all times。

6. Phase removal of vegetation to prevent large areas from becoming exposed to wind.

7. Place dust screens around construction areas, paying particular attention to areas close to housing, commercial areas, and recreational areas.

8. Spray water as needed on dirt roads, cut areas and soil stockpiles.

9. Apply proper measures to minimize disruptions from vibration or noise coming from construction activities.

3.2.4 Disturbance to water bodies

1. Restricting the duration and timing of in-stream activities to lower low periods, and avoiding periods critical to biological cycles of valued flora and fauna (e.g., migration, spawning, etc.)

2. For in-stream works, using isolation techniques such as berming or diversion during construction to limit the exposure of disturbed sediments to moving water

3.2.5 Wastewater Discharge

1. Construction and decommissioning activities may include the generation of sanitary wastewater discharges in varying quantities depending on the number of workers involved. Adequate portable or permanent sanitation facilities serving all workers should be provided at all construction sites.

2. When wastewater treatment is required prior to discharge, the level of treatment should be based on: (i) Whether wastewater is being discharged to a sanitary sewer system, or to surface waters (ii) National and local standards as reflected in permit requirements and sewer system capacity to convey and treat wastewater if discharge is to sanitary sewer; (iii) Assimilative capacity of the receiving water for the load of contaminant being discharged wastewater if discharge is to surface water; (iv)Performance level for wastewater effluent should be in compliance with national or local standards for wastewater discharges

3.2.6 Community Relations

To enhance adequate community relations the Contractor should:

1. Following the country and EA requirements, inform the population about construction and work schedules, interruption of services, traffic detour routes, as appropriate.

2. Limit construction activities at night. When necessary ensure that night work is carefully scheduled and the community is properly informed so they can take necessary measures.

3. At least five days in advance of any service interruption (including water, electricity, telephone) the community must be advised through postings at the project site, and in affected homes/businesses.

3.2.7 Chance Find Procedures for Culturally Significant Artifacts

The Contractor is responsible for familiarizing themselves with the following “Chance Finds Procedures”, in case culturally valuable materials are uncovered during excavation, including:

1. Stop work immediately following the discovery of any materials with possible archeological, historical, paleontological, or other cultural value, announce findings to project manager and notify relevant authorities;

2. Protect artifacts as well as possible using plastic covers, and implement measures to stabilize the area, if necessary, to properly protect artifacts

3. Prevent any unauthorized access to the artifacts

4. Restart construction works only upon the authorization of the relevant authorities.

3.2.8 Traffic Safety

Construction activities may result in a significant increase improvement of heavy vehicles for the transport of construction materials and equipment increasing the risk of traffic-related accidents and injuries to workers and local communities. The incidence of road accidents involving project vehicles during construction should be minimized through a combination of education and awareness-raising.
