I. Introduction

1.1 Project Description

The Rural Roads Improvement Project II (RRIP II) aims to rehabilitate about 739.9 kilometers (km) of rural roads in nine (9) provinces, namely: Takeo, Kampong Speu, Kampong Chhnang, Pursat, Battambang, Banteay Meanchey, Siem Reap, Kampong Thom and Tbuong Khmum to paved condition with double bituminous surface treatment (DBST). This is to provide a safer, cost-effective rural road network with all-year access to markets and other social services of poor rural provinces in Cambodia. RRIP II has five (5) key outputs as follows: (i) rural road improvements; (ii) rural road asset management; (iii) rural road safety and community awareness program; (iv) project management support; and (v) connectivity improvements for Mekong River Islands. The first output is rural road improvements, to improve about 729 km of rural roads to climate resilient paved condition. This output also includes green planting and design and implementation supervision consulting services.

The second output of the project will improve rural road asset management in a sustainable manner through a strong capacity-building program. This program will continue the interventions initiated in Loan 2670, including the overloading prevention program for rural roads to efficiently manage the road assets. The third output will increase the awareness and application of road safety and safeguards by (i) further expanding the pilot community-based road safety awareness program, initiated in Loan 2670, including education program for schools, drivers, road users, and the community that also incorporates road safety provisions in road design; (ii) further strengthening the capacity of the social and environment office in MRD established in 2012; (iii) implementing an HIV/AIDS and human trafficking prevention; and (iv) conducting a sex disaggregated baseline socioeconomic survey of project beneficiaries.

The fourth output is to strengthen the capacity of MRD to provide efficient project management support for project implementation. The project will also promote substantial positive employment and gender impacts in the rural communities under most of all outputs. The Gender Action Plan (GAP) will incorporate all the labor and gender mainstreaming in all 5 project outputs. Through lessons learned from the previous Loan 2670, the project will strengthen MRD’s focus more on all outputs equally as the tendency has been somewhat inclined towards road improvement activities. This will be achieved through increased MRD staff resources in social, gender, and safeguards areas.

The fifth output has two sub-outputs: (i) to rehabilitate roads and jetties within a 5- island cluster in the Mekong River (Koh Mitt, Koh Pir, Koh Samrorng, Koh Soutin, and Koh Thmei) in order to improve climate resilient access and connectivity. The civil works contract for rehabilitating roads and jetties also includes provisions for small-scale levees and water management interventions to minimize flooding; and (ii) to develop a climate change adaptation framework and its associated investments of minor activities of multisector nature (agriculture, renewable energy, tourism, water supply, etc.) that will be designed and implemented during the proposed project, include a community-based emergency management system. Although this output will be piloted for the Mekong River Island cluster, it may be replicated in other similar areas with remote access. This semi-annual environmental monitoring report and all previous and subsequent similar reports pertain only to the first and fifth outputs that are implementing civil works.

1.3 Objective of Environmental Monitoring

The Environmental Management Plan (EMP) is required to properly guide the

implementation of mitigation measures together with the Environmental Monitoring Program

(EmoP) that includes social safeguards monitoring during construction and project

maintenance stage. The DDIS Consultant’s Environmental Specialists together with

Subproject Inspectors of the Resident Engineers (RE) are responsible for environmental

monitoring, mostly during the construction period. The main purpose of environmental

monitoring is to ensure that the environmental impacts of project activities are adequately

addressed and mitigated. In addition, the project also needs to comply with ADB’s SPS 2009 and Cambodia’s environmental laws as indicated in the loan agreement. The contractors

have a duty to comply with the relevant legislation.

The DDIS Consultant is required to check Contractor activities and report to MRD. In the

event of non-compliance issues related EMP implementation, the DDIS Consultant will

instruct the Contractor to comply with the environmental safeguards requirements. Given the

nature of the work activities, most monitoring is based on visual observations aided with the

Checklist of EMP Implementation accomplished monthly by the DDIS Consultant and

concurred by the Contractor representatives on-site.

For the RRIP II, the Environmental Monitoring Program (EMoP) will be carried out throughout the construction and after construction period. The Contractor will be responsible for all environmental compliance requirements and internally conduct its activities under supervision from environmental monitoring team, with the collaboration of the MRD-PMU Social and Environmental Office (SEO). The environmental monitoring program will provide information on:

• The potential environmental impacts along the rural road projects of RRIP II and at worker camps, with respect to the environmental and social safeguard management, especially during construction within and nearest project areas.

• Provide the basis for following-up field inspections for identifying negative impacts that can be occur or potentially happen, to compare with the Initial Environmental Examination (IEE) that had been prepared and approved.

• The potential impacts from all the project activities compared to the existing condition.

• Supervision and inspection of implementation of mitigation measures by the

Contractor during the project construction activities in accordance with the CEMP, and relevant laws and policies.

• Identifying issues or problems and complaints from affected communities or parties.

• Advising and commenting on identification of alternative mitigation measures to further mitigate the negative impacts on the environment during the undertaking of construction activities.

• Presentation of complains/impacts to the communities arising from project activities, and the proper implementation of mitigation/corrective measures for reducing the

Page 12: Environmental Monitoring Report › sites › default › files › project...KT1 Thnot – O Angkor Stung – Prasath Ballang 40.00 1 road Sub total 40.00 Mekong River Islands 50

10

negative impacts originated by Contractors, implementing institutions, and other relevant agencies.

II. Environmental Laws and Relevant Regulations The project is classified environment category B and an initial environmental examination (IEE) was conducted as part of project preparation in accordance with ADB Environment Policy (2002) and Environmental Assessment Guidelines (2003). The IEE has been undertaken to assess the environmental impacts of the proposed Rural Roads Improvement Project II (RRIP II), concluding that the construction impacts will be manageable if mitigation measures are properly and thoroughly implemented. The EMP is based on the type, extent and duration of the identified environmental impacts. The EMP has been prepared with close reference to best practices and in line with ADB’s Safeguard Policy Statement 2009 and Environmental Assessment Guidelines. The Ministry of Environment (MoE) has overall responsibility for the environmental management requirements to comply with the Cambodia National Environmental laws. Their main responsibility is for ensuring the implementation of the Law on Environmental Protection and Natural Resources Management. The provincial departments have responsibility for enforcing the environmental legislation, under the supervision of the MoE. For the RRIP II, the EMP-EMoP shall be implemented by the contractor, overseen by the project owner MRD/SEO and project consultant (DDIS), in collaboration with the relevant environmental agencies. The MoE will also follow-up, monitor and take up appropriate measures to ensure the

Project Owner will follow the Environmental Management Plan (EMP) including

Environmental Monitoring Plan (EMoP) while project construction is taking place, and

accede to their EIA/IEE report's approval (Sub-decree on EIA Process MoE, 1999). The

legislations and guidelines for managing the environmental aspect of this project under the

responsibility of MoE implementing the relevant laws and regulations are shown below:

• Law on Environmental Protection and Natural Resource Management. MoE, December 24, 1996.

• Law on the Road Traffic. MPWT, 2015 • Sub-decree on Environmental Impact Assessment. MoE, August 11, 1999. • Sub-decree on Water Pollution Control. MoE, April 27, 1999. • Sub-decree on Solid Waste Management. MoE, 1999. • Sub-decree on Air Pollution Control and Noise Disturbance. MoE, July 10, 2000. • Law on Land Traffic. MPWT, December 22, 2006. • Land Law. MLMUPC, August 30, 2001. • General Guideline for conducting IEE/IESIA/EIA. MoE, 2009. • Environmental Assessment guideline. ADB, 2003. • Asian Development Bank–Safeguards Policy Statement. ADB, 2009

III. Monitoring Mechanism 3.1 Introduction

The Environmental Monitoring mechanism was established for implementing mitigation measures and take action on adverse environmental impacts during project’s implementation guided by the project’s IEE, and implementation of its EMP. Therefore, the Environmental Specialist (National Environmental Specialist) and National Social-Gender Development Specialist in collaboration with both the International Environmental and International

Page 13: Environmental Monitoring Report › sites › default › files › project...KT1 Thnot – O Angkor Stung – Prasath Ballang 40.00 1 road Sub total 40.00 Mekong River Islands 50

11

Social-Gender Development Specialist and other concerned agencies/parties, conduct field monitoring activities in the project areas for the preparation of this semi-annual environment monitoring report. This report informs on the activities of the Contractors during the reporting period for each of the Subproject sites in order to ensure compliance with ADB’s Social Safeguard Policy Statement 2009 and Cambodia’ sub-decree on Environmental Impacts Assessment (MoE, 1999). The environmental monitoring describes the processes and activities that need to take place to characterize and monitor the quality of the project environment. During the site inspections, the DDIS Consultant and the contractor’s representatives conducted:

- Review of the IEE and EMP of the RRIP II; - Review EMP implementation Checklists for each of the construction packages; - Monthly progress reports for each of the construction packages; - Conducting field visits and field investigations of rural road projects; - Inspection of current construction activities, labor use, traffic management,

safeguards requirements, and others including natural environment issues; - Arranging discussion meetings with local authorities, site managers, workers, and

affected people who are living along/nearest the rural road projects together with brief (individual or group) interviewed as well.

- Verify and clarify ADB Review Mission findings of 11 to 15 June 2018. 3.2 Responsible Institutions

Following the award of the contract and before commencing work the Contractors were required to prepare a Contractor’s Environmental Management Plan (CEMP) that addresses all the conditions of the construction EMP that has been attached to the Bid and Contract Documents. The CEMP as already submitted amplified how the Contractor will address environmental concerns during the construction activities. The Contractor submitted the CEMP to the Engineer after the contract was awarded. The IES and NES of the DDIS will review and evaluate the CEMP and make the necessary recommendation to the PMU-SEO through the Engineer for the ultimate approval of the CEMP by the PMU and the ADB before commencement of any civil works.

Base on sub-decree on EIA Process MoE 1999 in Article 3: the MoE has responsibilities as follows:

a) Scrutinize and review the report of the Environmental Impact Assessment in collaboration with other concerned ministries;

b) Follow up, monitor and take appropriate measures to ensure the Project Owner will follow the Environmental Management Plan (EMP) while project construction is taking place and accede to their EIA/IEE report's approval.

During construction, the contractor will work according to the requirements of the CEMP as was prepared. In addition to regular monitoring, unannounced spot checks can be made by MRD’ SEO and DDIS Consultant on the contractors’ operations. Regular monitoring shall be carried out by the site inspectors of the DDIS Consultant in conjunction with the Contractor Site Engineer and/or SEO, and where appropriate MoE/DoE of provincial project areas. Supervision and monitoring of the CEMP activities will be undertaken as follows:

- The contractors have a duty to comply with the approved EMP and the relevant

regulations.

Page 14: Environmental Monitoring Report › sites › default › files › project...KT1 Thnot – O Angkor Stung – Prasath Ballang 40.00 1 road Sub total 40.00 Mekong River Islands 50

12

- Contractor has the initial responsibility for supervising and monitoring of the CEMP as provided for in the supervision of the works contract.

- The ES of the PMU-SEO with the assistance of the IES and the NES of the DDIS will direct the Contractor with regard to compliance with the CEMP.

- The PMU-SEO will carry out independent monitoring of the work and can issue Defect Notices to the Engineer who will transmit these to the Contractor for appropriate corrective action(s).

- The Contractor will have his own representative on site for the duration of the contract. Its designated Environmental Officer (EO) will be responsible for implementing the CEMP and complying with the environmental laws and regulations of the Kingdom of Cambodia and the Safeguards requirements of the Asian Development Bank (ADB) as stipulated in the Safeguards Policy Statement 2009.

- The Ministry of Environment (MoE) shall be only involved in the EMP/EMoP implementation monitoring if an official complaint was made to them after which the MoE shall check or conduct site monitoring.

- Local authorities and local communities including concerned local NGOs.

3.3 Environmental Management Plan/Program

The MRD ensured that the EMP was included in the tender documents for all the civil works of the project. This formed part of the agreements between the MRD and the selected contractors and the requirements of the EMP will be contractually binding on all of the contractors. The conformity of contractors with the environmental contract requirements and specifications shall be regularly monitored by the Project Management Unit (PMU) through the Social Environmental Office (SEO) during project implementation. The PMU/SEO with assistance from the DDIS undertakes the EMP monitoring and prepares corresponding semi-annual reports for submission to the ADB. The MRD or contractors will follow the Environmental Management Plan (EMP) while project construction is taking place and accede to their EIA/IEE report's approval (Sub-Decree on EIA Process, MoE, 1999). The EMP during the construction phase forms part of the contractual obligation to be carried out by the Contractors. The Field Engineers under the supervision of the DDIS Consultant will supervise and monitor the contractor performance (ADB’s Environmental and Social Safeguard Policies). The Environmental Monitoring Program is included in the Environmental Management Plan and the scope of work or major tasks during the construction stage include:

• Reviewing the environmental report or monitoring report in previous monthly reports

prepared by contractors;

• Presenting and guiding Contractor staffs and SEO environmental engineers on

environmental monitoring aspect in field practice;

• Field monitoring of road construction activities and contractor’s compliance to the

environmental mitigation measure performance in all road projects;

• Consultation with local authorities and communities along the road sites including

relevant agencies;

• Identifying impacts or issues that have taken place during the construction stage;

• Recommend to contractors the implementation of the EMP as stated in the IEE report

and other environmental safeguards in construction contract documents; and

• Take action to mitigate or rectify other issues that took place in the construction sites.

3.4 Contractor‘s Environmental Management Plan (CEMP)

Page 15: Environmental Monitoring Report › sites › default › files › project...KT1 Thnot – O Angkor Stung – Prasath Ballang 40.00 1 road Sub total 40.00 Mekong River Islands 50

13

The EMP for this RRIP II project is implemented by the contractors under direct control by

MRD/SEO with assistance from the DDIS consultant. After appointment and mobilization, the

contractors must prepare his/their own version of the EMP known as the Contractors EMP

(CEMP). This must give specific details of locations of borrow areas, borrow roads, worker

camps, and other facilities to be used. This must be submitted to the DDIS consultant for

reviewing and approval before works commence. So the contractors shall organize its

environmental and social unit or group for implementing its environmental management and

monitoring plan with environmental monitoring report submitted to the DDIS consultant and

MRD for checking and approval. The contractors have a duty to comply with the approved

EMP and the relevant regulations.

The EMP included in the bidding documents is, of necessity, general in scope. This is

because specific details such as location of contractors camps, borrow pit areas, batching

plant, rock sources, crushing plants and the like are not known at the bidding stage. These

details must be supplied by the contractor in its Contractor’s Environmental Management

Plan (CEMP). All contractors had previously supplied their CEMP. This CEMP for the

subprojects has been prepared to deal with mitigation and management measures to be

taken during Project implementation to avoid, reduce, mitigate for adverse environmental

impacts in compliance with the IEE and EMP in the Contract Documents.

IV. Result of Environmental Monitoring

Environmental Monitoring Report focuses on adverse environmental issues, and proposed mitigation measure as described in the following paragraphs. Field records are also included for: (i) the results of monthly environmental monitoring checklists from January to June 2018 ; (ii) the results of monthly progress reports of all the packages from the contractors and resident engineers/assistant engineers/inspectors; (iii) the site visit results from project consultants conducting field visits including field investigations of project activities in the project areas, and discussions with local authorities, communities, and relevant agencies. The international and national environmental specialists collaborated with the international and national social and labor specialists in conducting field monitoring works of the project areas. During the field visit to road projects, camp sites, and other project areas, implementation civil works activities, the environmental specialists, and social-labor specialists discussed with Resident Engineers, Assistant Resident Engineers, Site Inspectors, Representative of Contractors, Site Engineers, Foremen, and Construction workers including women working with the project. The consultant team also consulted with the affected people of local communities living near the roadways, and local authorities (Please refer to Annex A, and Annex C). Contract Requirement for Environment Officer (EO) Interviews with the DDIS Resident and Assistant Engineers including several of the Contractor Project Managers confirmed that they already have designated staff to address environmental concerns of their respective projects. Many of these have attended the Safeguards training conducted by the ADB on two occasions within the period of this monitoring reporting. Given the very limited in-country human resource for this requirement, it is recommended that Contractor staff already given this fundamental environmental training and given assignments in regard to this concern, a follow on training on specific environmental management plan implementation using the EMP Checklist of Implementation be conducted further. This follow on orientation shall focus on explaining the details of the

Page 16: Environmental Monitoring Report › sites › default › files › project...KT1 Thnot – O Angkor Stung – Prasath Ballang 40.00 1 road Sub total 40.00 Mekong River Islands 50

14

environmental management plan and its Annexes: a) Matrix of the EMP; b) Environmental Monitoring Plan; and c) Checklist of EMP Implementation. This orientation is important in order for Contractor staff, and DDIS site engineers to have common understanding of the environmental management requirements of the project. It can be handled by the SEO of MRD that has already matured with experience in the implementation of rural road projects in Cambodia. Another day or two may be organized for this purpose which would be an opportunity also for sharing of experiences. EMP Checklist Requirements The EMP Checklist requirements are prepared monthly for each of the civil works contracts and sub-projects, and submitted by the Resident Engineers to the DDIS Consultants’ Office for submission to MRD as part of the monthly report. 4.1 Contract Package CW1 in Tbong Khmum Province The roads in this province will be improved to DBST paved road condition, except KC12 in Prek Achi Commune, Kroch Chhmar District, Tboung Khmum that will be paved with reinforced concrete. Construction activities for all roads are now progressing after the rainy season. Contractor is implementing embankment, sub-grade, clearing and grubbing, excavation and compacting including structural and drainage works.

4.1.1 Physical Resources

Project roads are located in the rural area. Most of the project roads under this contract

package traverses adjacent rice fields, agricultural farms and rural residential areas. Air,

noise and vibration impacts to the communities from construction works continue to persist

as expected during the reporting period but are considered minor and short term during the

construction period. While dusts are generated by passing vehicles were observable during

the monitoring activities, no complaints have been received from affected communities that

appeared ambivalent of the situation hoping that after construction, things will eventually

improve. Communities had been for a long while exposed to dust and improvement to a

paved one will be welcome in the near future. In the meantime, Contractors continue to

spray water at least every four hours as agreed with the communities especially around

sensitive receptors.

Based on field inspection, there are no main water bodies located near project roads except

for KC12 that runs adjacent for the most part along the Mekong River. While there had been

general compliance as per the submitted EMP Checklists during the reporting period, a few

observations had been noted that required further clarification and verification by the DDIS

Resident Engineer and Assistant Resident Engineer to the Contractor for appropriate

corrective action. For example, the Contractor’ camp (and where the batch concrete mixing were previously done) for KC12 has been partially demolished with only one of the

temporary housing accommodation for workers left in place. This is because much of the

work along this road had already been done. It will be important to restore the campsite in its

pre-project level condition and clean it up with all trash, garbage, used materials, and

inoperable equipment to make the area aesthetically attractive and clean after

demobilization.

As previously reported, there are no protected areas, protected forest and wildlife, and sensitive ecological sites located in the project roads. Albeit authorities and communities were willing to donate (as previously reported in the past year’ Semi-annual Environmental Monitoring Report) for the project where works require clearing and grubbing, there were no voluntary donations made during the reporting period because there were no affected trees affected. 4.1.3 Social Resources As previously reported during the first and second semi-annual monitoring report, some

construction workers stay in the Contractor site camp while others, especially unskilled

labors, stay at their houses near or around project roads. The campsite used by the

contractor have been partially demolished with the winding down of the construction

activities in KC 12. Only a few workers have been staying in the campsite to undertake

demobilization activities. The campsite will soon be completely restored by the Contractor

to its pre-project condition and returned to the landowner in a rehabilitated condition.

In KC 6, it was observed that there is no project sign at the beginning of the Subproject road; personnel working and supervising the road construction did not wear any PPEs; current construction activities make the road slippery; and at the Campsite/Contractor Office is unsecured with children playing around; and hazardous materials such as oil and grease, and other materials used in vehicle/equipment maintenance are lying unsecured on the ground. It recommended that the Contractor install project sign; undertake housekeeping; and properly manage its campsite in accordance with the requirements of the EMP. 4.2 Contract Package CW2A in Takeo Province

There are 2 unpaved roads in this contract package that will be improved into DBST-paved roads. Contractor is implementing embankment, sub-grade, clearing and grubbing, excavating and compacting including structural and drainage works. 4.2.1 Physical Resources

The roads similar to others are located in the rural areas and traverse adjacent to rice fields,

farms, and village areas). With the exception of the village areas that continue to be

exposed to dust generation, the rest of the receptors of the road construction activities are

not impacted by elevated noise levels, vibration impacts and air quality degradation. Local

communities’ concern about dust emissions and mudded road at construction sections

continue to accept the reality that they have met this dust condition for so long a time

anyway and is endurable for the remaining construction period because they will have DBST

paved roads soon. In the meantime, the concerned contractor will continue to spray water

more frequently especially around residential areas and public facilities during the dry days

of the rainy season under this reporting period. Previous field inspections confirm that main

water bodies are not located near the project roads.

4.2.2 Ecological Resources

As previously reported, the project roads in the province are not located in protected areas, protected forest and wildlife, and sensitive ecological sites. Tree replacement requirements are being addressed by a separate contract package solely dedicated to such requirement of vegetation loss.

4.2.3 Social Resources Similar to the other contract packages, no complaints were registered with the Contractor or with the commune. While there is general compliance with the requirements based on the Checklist of EMP Implementation prepared monthly by the DDIS field staff, it is incumbent upon the Contractor to comply with the EMP requirements. DDIS Consultant and its Resident Engineer and Site Inspectors will continue to monitor Contractor compliance these requirements. 4.3 Contract Package CW3A in Kampong Speu Province Package CW3A consists of 3 roads in Kampong Speu Province to be improved to DBST-paved roads. The construction of embankment, sub grade, clearing, grubbing, excavating unsuitable soil, leveling and compacting are progressing. 4.3.1 Physical Resources The project roads are located in rural areas and most of the roads traverse village areas, farms and paddy fields. There are a few small local markets located within the ROW. As previously reported, there are no main water bodies, located near these project roads. Whilst there is general compliance noted in the monthly Checklist of EMP Implementation prepared and concurred by the Contractor, dust generation continues to be generated. But this can be mitigated by strictly observing dust control such as limited driving speed (at least 25 kph) in populated village areas, and regular watering on construction sites. 4.3.2 Ecological Resources As previously reported, the project roads in Takeo Province are not located in protected areas, protected forest and wildlife, and sensitive ecological sites. Tree replacement requirements are being addressed by a separate contract package solely dedicated to such requirement of vegetation loss. No tree replacement activities has yet taken place. 4.3.3 Social Resources Similar to the other contract packages, no complaints were registered with the Contractor or with the commune. While there is general compliance with the requirements based on the Checklist of EMP Implementation prepared monthly by the DDIS field staff, it is incumbent upon the Contractor to comply with the EMP requirements. DDIS Consultant and its Resident Engineer and Site Inspectors will continue to monitor Contractor compliance these requirements. 4.4 Contract Package CW4A in Kampong Chhnang Province Package CW4A consists of 3 roads in Kampong Chhnang Province to be improved to DBST paved roads. The construction of embankment, sub grade, clearing, grubbing, excavating unsuitable soil, leveling, compacting and drainage work are progressing, and culvert works are on-going. 4.4.1 Physical Resources During the reporting period, there is general compliance of the requirements identified in the Checklist of EMP Implementation. However, during the site visit of the ADB Review Mission of 11-15 June 2018 to KCH 2, “the Mission observed one issue, wastewater from cleaning of aggregate for road pavement has been discharged into a farmer’ field. The wastewater should be treated to an appropriate standard prior to discharge. The Mission recommended

17

the Contractor and Supervision Consultant to immediately address this issue and ensure farmland restored to pre-subproject level”.2 In a follow-up monitoring on 25 June 2018 by the DDIS Consultant, it was found out that the contractor had already installed a 2 meter wide by 10 meter long by 1m deep settling pond as a natural treatment of the wastewater beside the two ponds of washwater – one pond as the main source of washing, and the other for used washwater. Altogether, there are now two ponds in the contractor campsite to handle the issue. Albeit action already undertaken at the time of DDIS Consultant visit, this was deemed too shallow to allow sediments to settle first, and to accommodate rainfall volume (especially during this rainy season). DDIS Consultant recommended deepening the settling pond unless Contractor can prove that it is enough; provide at least two compartments to allow primary settling; re-use water by pumping into an adjacent pond currently used; and desilt regularly. Following DDIS Consultant recommendations, the Contractor commenced the cleanup of the adjacent ricefield. DDIS Consultant recommends that the excavated materials from the field be buried securely away from its source. In addition, the Contractor excavated another pond contiguous to the previously excavated one. This will serve as a primary settling pond to allow sediments to settle first and reduce the volume of sediment going into the second pond. The wastewater can then be pumped into the adjacent pond for reuse. DDIS Resident Engineer informed that the Contractor is already finished with gravel washing. In this instance, it is recommended that the Contractor monitor the volume of water in the ponds during rains to ensure that no wastewater will overflow again to the rice field. Observations for KCH 1 include no safety signs and barrier in one of the pipe culvert works along the alignment. It is recommended that the Contractor provide these to not only warn motorists of the excavation works but also allow for safe passage especially during the nighttime. In addition, there is continuing dust generation along the alignment and is actually unavoidable but the Contractor should mitigate this by continuing to spray water on sensitive receptors such as residential areas, other public facilities and construction sections. Even if it is already the rainy season in the project area, dust is generated in the sensitive receptors during the dry days. 4.4.2 Ecological Resources As previously reported and further confirmed during the field inspections, the project roads in the province are not located in protected areas, protected forest and wildlife, and sensitive ecological sites. Tree replacement requirements are being addressed by a separate contract package solely dedicated to such requirement of vegetation loss. 4.4.3 Social Resources The campsite in KCH 2 was provided by the Commune rent-free to the Contractor as confirmed by Commune Officials. However, this shall require restoration and clean-up to pre-project level condition prior to contractor demobilization. During current continuing Contractor use of the campsite and before complete demobilization, it is recommended that all the ponds used by the Contractor shall be provided with barrier or safety tapes to warn for danger and keep out children from falling into these ponds.

4.5 Contract Package CW5 in Pursat Province Package CW5 in Pursat province has 10 rural roads to be improved to DBST-paved roads. The site activities such as sub grade, embankment, clearing, grubbing, excavating, leveling and compacting including structural and drainage works are progressing. 4.5.1 Physical Resources As previously reported, the project roads are located in the rural areas and traverses adjacent rice fields, agricultural farms, and rural village areas. Issues of air quality, elevated noise levels and vibration during construction are not major concerns. Villagers only request frequent water spraying in front of the residential areas during dry construction days, and better maintenance to avoid muddy and slippery roads during the rainy season most especially during the reporting period. For the most part Contractor complies with the requests to the satisfaction of the community.

Three (3) subproject roads in the province were traversed during the site visits. The following

observations were noted: In PS 10, warning signs and safety barriers were not enough in the

RC Box/Bridge works. Workers doing formworks were not fully provided with safety harness

while working at heights. At PK 10+400, stockpile of materials in front of school was

observed. In PS 9, detour road signs were removed since the RC Box/Bridge works is

nearing completion, it is important to remind the Contractor to restore the detour road to its

pre-project level prior to demobilization. In PS 5, RC Box works were provided with safe

tapes. It is recommended that besides barricading the work areas, safety warning signs be

also provided (such as slow down, detour, etc.).

4.5.2 Ecological Resources As previously reported and further confirmed during the field inspections, the project roads in the province are not located in protected areas, protected forest and wildlife, and sensitive ecological sites. Tree replacement requirements are being addressed by a separate contract package solely dedicated to such requirement of vegetation loss. 4.5.3 Social Resources While there appears general compliance reported in the monthly Checklist of EMP Implementation, observations as discussed above were made during the site visits. The Contractor has agreed to address these observations and these will be verified by the DDIS Site Inspector and reported as part of the monthly reporting. 4.6 Contract Package CW5 in Battambang Province There are 7 rural roads that will be improved to DBST pavement in Battambang Province. All the project roads are connected to National Road No.5 and No.57. 4.6.1 Physical Resources While there appears general compliance to the Checklist of EMP Implementation, a few observations were made at the time of site visit. During the site visit, a heavy truck was stuck in soft/muddy roadway at the beginning point of BB 10. Contractor needs to provide additional fill materials and stabilize the roadway to enable safe passage of vehicles in uninterrupted manner. In addition, the Contractor needs to regularly monitor the road condition even if no work is being done at present to respond quickly to situations such as the

Page 21: Environmental Monitoring Report › sites › default › files › project...KT1 Thnot – O Angkor Stung – Prasath Ballang 40.00 1 road Sub total 40.00 Mekong River Islands 50

19

one observed earlier. 4.6.2 Ecological Resources As previously reported, the project roads in the province are not located in protected areas, protected forest and wildlife, and sensitive ecological sites. The Tonle Sap Biosphere Reserve (TSBR) and other protected areas are located far from these project roads. Tree replacement requirements are being addressed by a separate contract package solely dedicated to such requirement of vegetation loss. 4.6.3 Social Resources At the time of the site visit, it appeared that BB 3 is already finished. However, road safety furnitures have not been noticed similar to RRIP 1 completed roads. These should be provided as also reported during the ADB Mission of June 11-15, 2018 to address safety concerns. In BB 5, the Contractor fuel tank was provided with concrete flooring but is not extended to the hose fueling area where spills are observable. Contractor needs to extend concrete floor and provide drainage sump to collect spills and any water that may drain from the floor. Some high embankment areas especially at PK 3+185 was not properly barricaded and no warning or safety signs provided to warn for safety passage. Contractor needs to provide signs to guide the local traffic.

4.7 Contract Package CW5 in Banteay Meanchay Province Five (5) roads located in 6 districts of Banteay Meanchay Province will be improved to DBST pavement. From progress reports and field visits, construction activities implemented include clearing, grubbing, embankment, subgrade, subbase, excavation and culverts construction. 4.7.1 Physical Resources In BC 4, Contractor needs to continue water spraying in village residential areas to mitigate dust during the dry days even of the rainy season. In addition, no speed limit sign installed before and after village residential areas to help mitigate dust generation and resuspension, and to ensure safety of the community population. In BC 1, whilst dust was not yet too evident during the site visit because of rain the previous night, Contractor should still continue to do watering works in the populated areas of the village during dry days (rainy season but sunny usually in the mornings). No speed limit signs (25kph) before and after approaching populated village areas and in school zones have been observed. The campsite at 18+500 in BC1 before and after its immediate location is not provided with warning and safety signs. There were a total of five (5) women employed at the campsite. As in other Subproject roads observed, there are no proper equipment maintenance workshop to do vehicle/equipment maintenance works. While it is understood that equipment are moved from place to place, it is recommended that in the absence of a fixed maintenance workshop, the Contractor ensures that maintenance works will not pollute the environment by implementing measures as identified in the EMP and in their CEMP. 4.7.2 Ecological Resources As previously reported, the project roads in the province are not located in protected areas, protected forest and wildlife, and sensitive ecological sites. The Tonle Sap Biosphere Reserve (TSBR) and other protected areas are located far from these project roads. Tree replacement requirements are being addressed by a separate contract package solely

20

dedicated to such requirement of vegetation loss. 4.7.3 Social Resources In BC 1, there were two women observed working in the Subproject road. This should continue where possible. In BC 2, no project sign was observed at the beginning point of the project to identify the project. This should be provided similar to the other Subproject roads as required. In BC 6, no safety signs were provided in the school zone, and in the pipe culvert works @PK 0+780). These should be provided to ensure the safety of students and safe passage of motorists as well. 4.8 Contract Package CW6A in Siem Reap Province There are 2 project roads in Siem Reap province, covered by CW6A. These roads will be improved to DBST paved roads located in 3 Districts (Sotr Nikum, Puok, and Angkor Chum). 4.8.1 Physical Resources While there is general compliance to the Checklist of EMP Implementation, it is anticipated that further on during construction, issues about dust, noise, and vibration from construction activities will be continually monitored for proper mitigation. During the monitoring site visits, a heavy truck was seen stuck in one of the detour roads but Contractor immediately sent equipment to compact an area beside it in order for vehicles to pass safely. Safety and warning signs are limited along the alignment of the road construction areas. It is recommended that adequate signs be provided to ensure warning and safe passage of vehicles and the community in general. At Station 22 of SR 7, the Contractor campsite/office is located in a residential area with no security fencing; no warning signs for its presence in the area especially for equipment crossing and movement; fuel drums are not in secured storage areas; and equipment repair and maintenance are done along the roadside. While it is understood that equipment are moved from place to place, it is recommended that in the absence of a fixed maintenance workshop, the Contractor ensures that maintenance works will not pollute the environment by implementing measures as identified in the EMP and in their CEMP. The Contractor was advised to restore the campsite/office location to its pre-project condition prior to demobilization. On the detour road issue pointed out by ADB Review Mission of 11-15 June 2018, Commune Leader confirmed that the area pointed out is public land. Farm owner also certified that her farmland near the ROW is not affected. Documents have been signed after Safeguard Team meet together with the Contractor, Commune Leader and Farm owner (Please see Annex C). Contractor also signed a document to restore the detour roads after completion of the culvert works. Contractor promised to provide pre-bypass road construction pictures to compare with the current situation. 4.8.2 Ecological Resources As previously reported and further confirmed during the field inspections, the project roads in the province are not located in protected areas, protected forest and wildlife, and sensitive ecological sites. The Tonle Sap Biosphere Reserve (TSBR) and other protected areas are located far from these project roads. Tree replacement requirements are being addressed by a separate contract package solely dedicated to such requirement of vegetation loss. 4.8.3 Social Resources

In SR 4, the Project Manager of the work team was advised to comply with the EMP requirements especially during the establishment of campsite to assure public safety and security of its resources; and providing safe zone by installing safety sign boards. . 4.9 Contract Package CW7A in Kampong Thom Province Package CW7A in Kampong Thom Province has only 1 but long road with a total length of 40 km located in Stung and Prasath Ballang Districts. Construction activities are on-going to improve existing unpaved road into DBST-paved road. DDIS Consultant verified the findings of the ADB Review Mission of 11-15 June 2018 in addition to other site observations. 4.9.1 Physical Resources At the Contractor Office and Campsite in another location along the Subproject road, the area is unsecured/unfenced; fuel tank improperly installed without impervious surfacing and drainage requirements as per EMP requirements to prevent ground pollution and contamination (Contractor needs to provide concrete flooring with sump to collect oil spills and water). 4.9.2 Ecological Resources As previously reported and further confirmed during the field inspections, the project roads in the province are not located in protected areas, protected forest and wildlife, and sensitive ecological sites. Tree replacement requirements are being addressed by a separate contract package solely dedicated to such requirement of vegetation loss. 4.9.3 Social Resources a) At the temporary campsite, the Contractor rents a house and yard for its temporary equipment parking. Lot owner confirms that rental was paid for the house and yard. b) At the Contractor Office and Campsite in another location along the Subproject road, rental is also being paid for the use of the house and yard space. Contractor is utilizing a dilapidated toilet of the house owner (Contractor needs to assist the owner to make repairs); and vehicle maintenance materials litter the ground and requires clean-up (Contractor is required to do proper housekeeping in the area to ensure the safety of the other occupants in the area). c) At the Bridge/Box Culvert Construction Site, the electrical wirings laying on the ground as was observed and reported by the ADB Review Mission were still in the same situation but were unplugged and kept away for safekeeping as soon as pointed again by the DDIS Consultant. Contractor personnel were advised to properly hang the wires safely overhead when plugged to prevent electrocution. There was still no toilet as reported by the ADB Review Mission. DDIS Consultant was informed that the workers either used toilets of nearby houses or just defecate anywhere near the construction site. This is unsafe and unsanitary considering that RC Box culvert works take between three to six months or more to complete. DDIS Consultant recommends for Contractor to provide Portable Toilets (Portalets) and dispose collected wastes in the province where available and not in the waterways. DDIS Consultant Site Inspectors will monitor this for compliance. The temporary housing accommodation in the site does not have any first aid kit. Contractor was advised to provide one. 4.10 Contract Package CW8 of Mekong River Islands in Kampong Cham and Tbuong

22

Khmum Provinces Package CW8 consists of many short roads with a total length of 50km in 5 Mekong Islands and 11 jetties in Kampong Cham and Tboung Khmum provinces. The 50 km of roads will be improved into reinforced concrete pavement and 11 jetties will be newly constructed. 4.10.1 Physical Resources The DDIS Consultant visited the road and jetty construction activities in the Mekong Islands in Samraong, and Kaoh Pi. The construction of jetties under these locations are nearing completion. In Samraong, Contractor campsite requires restoration to pre-project condition. Contractor committed to do the works prior to demobilization. In addition, scouring/erosion was observed at the left side of the jetty landing (J1). This was referred to the Contractor and it committed to make the repairs as soon as the flood water level subsides. In Kaoh Pi Island, part of the campsite was observed to have water ponding that may harbor mosquitoes and other pests. Contractor committed to restore the campsite to its pre-project condition prior to demobilization since they are already nearing project completion. In addition, the road used by the Contractor will be likewise restored after project works completion and prior to demobilization following discussion with Commune officials and residents that were consulted during the site visit. Recent scouring/erosion of the jetty landing (J11) used to cross Kaoh Pi from Kampong Cham. Contractor committed to make repairs as soon as the flood waters subside. 4.10.2 Ecological Resources As previously reported and further confirmed during the field inspections, the project roads in the province are not located in protected areas, protected forest and wildlife, and sensitive ecological sites. Tree replacement requirements are being addressed by a separate contract package solely dedicated to such requirement of vegetation loss. 4.10.3 Social Resources In Kaoh Pi Island, women were observed doing rebar works for the jetty works and also as cooks. Contractor will continue to provide these employment opportunities until project works in the area is completed. V. Status of Compliance to ADB Comments in Previous Report A list of names who were given on-site detailed briefing on the EMP Checklist by the DDIS Consultant during the second semi-annual environmental monitoring site visits (December 2017) had been provided to the ADB Resident Mission Safeguard Staff as per their request. An updated Semi-Annual Environmental Monitoring Report incorporated such list of names as an Annex. VI. Status of Compliance to ADB Comments in Memorandum of Understanding (11 to 15 June 2018 ADB Review Mission). The ADB Review Mission had identified three major concerns that the ADB would like to be addressed by the Contractor and DDIS Consultant for reporting during this period. These are as follows: 1. KCH 2. In a follow-up monitoring on 25 June 2018 by the DDIS Consultant, it was found

Page 25: Environmental Monitoring Report › sites › default › files › project...KT1 Thnot – O Angkor Stung – Prasath Ballang 40.00 1 road Sub total 40.00 Mekong River Islands 50

23

out that the contractor had already installed a 2 meter wide by 10 meter long by 1m deep settling pond beside the two ponds of washwater – one pond as the main source of washing, and the other for used washwater. Altogether, there are now two ponds in the contractor campsite to handle the issue. Albeit action already undertaken at the time of DDIS Consultant visit, this was deemed too shallow to allow sediments to settle first, and to accommodate rainfall volume (especially during this rainy season). DDIS Consultant recommended deepening the settling pond unless Contractor can prove that it is enough; provide at least two compartments to allow primary settling; re-use water by pumping into the adjacent pond currently used; and desilt regularly. Following DDIS Consultant recommendations, the Contractor commenced the cleanup of the adjacent ricefield and further recommended that the excavated materials from the ricefield be buried securely away from its source. In addition, the Contractor excavated another pond contiguous to the previously excavated one. This will serve as a primary settling pond to allow sediments to settle first and reduce the volume of sediment going into the second pond. The wastewater can then be pumped into the adjacent pond for reuse. DDIS Resident Engineer however informed that the Contractor is already finished with gravel washing. In this instance, it is recommended that the Contractor monitor the volume of water in the ponds during heavy rainfall to ensure that no wastewater will overflow again to the ricefield. In addition, the ponds shall be provided with warning signs to keep people away from accidental drowning. 2. SR-7. On the detour road issue pointed out by ADB Review Mission of 11-15 June 2018, Commune Leader confirmed that the area pointed out is public land. Farm owner also certified that her farmland near the ROW is not affected. Documents have been signed after Safeguard Team meet together with the Contractor, Commune Leader and Farm owner (Please see Annex C). Contractor also signed a document to restore the detour roads after completion of the culvert works. Contractor promised to provide pre-bypass road construction pictures to compare with the current situation. 3. KT1. These were in three locations as follows: a) At the temporary campsite, the Contractor rents a house and yard for its temporary equipment parking. Contractor was advised and committed in turn to restore the yard of the residential area prior to complete demobilization. b) At the Contractor Office and Campsite in another location along the Subproject road, the area is unsecured/unfenced; fuel tank improperly installed without impervious surfacing and drainage requirements as per EMP requirements to prevent ground pollution and contamination (Contractor needs to provide concrete flooring with sump to collect oil spills and water); Contractor is utilizing a dilapidated toilet of the house owner (Contractor needs to assist the owner to make repairs); and vehicle maintenance materials litter the ground and requires clean-up (Contractor is required to do proper housekeeping in the area to ensure the safety of the other occupants in the area). c) At the Bridge/Box Culvert Construction Site, the electrical wirings laying on the ground as was observed and reported by the ADB Review Mission were still in the same situation but were unplugged and kept away for safekeeping as soon as pointed again by the DDIS Consultant. Contractor personnel were advised to properly hang the wires safely overhead when plugged to prevent electrocution. There was still no toilet as reported by the ADB Review Mission. DDIS Consultant was informed that the workers either used toilets of nearby houses or just defecate anywhere near the construction site. This is unsafe and unsanitary considering that RC Box culvert works take between three to six months or more to complete. DDIS Consultant recommends for Contractor to provide Portable Toilets (Portalets) and dispose collected wastes in the province where wastewater treatment maybe available and

Page 26: Environmental Monitoring Report › sites › default › files › project...KT1 Thnot – O Angkor Stung – Prasath Ballang 40.00 1 road Sub total 40.00 Mekong River Islands 50

24

not in the waterways to prevent water pollution. DDIS Consultant Site Inspectors will monitor this for compliance. VII. New Issues from this Report The following are identified new issues as of this reporting period: a) In KC 6, it was observed that there is no project sign at the beginning of the Subproject road; personnel working and supervising the road construction did not wear any PPEs; current construction activities make the road slippery; and at the Campsite/Contractor Office is unsecured with children playing around; and hazardous materials such as oil and grease, and other materials used in vehicle/equipment maintenance are lying unsecured on the ground. It recommended that the Contractor install project sign; undertake housekeeping; and properly manage its campsite in accordance with the requirements of the EMP. b) Observations for KCH 1 include no safety signs and barrier in one of the pipe culvert works along the alignment. It is recommended that the Contractor provide these to not only warn motorists of the excavation works but also allow for safe passage especially during the nighttime. In addition, there is continuing dust generation along the alignment and is actually unavoidable but the Contractor should mitigate this by continuing to spray water on sensitive receptors such as residential areas, other public facilities and construction sections. Even if it is already the rainy season in the project area, dust is generated in the sensitive receptors during the dry days. c) The campsite in KCH 2 was provided by the Commune rent-free to the Contractor as confirmed by Commune Officials. However, this shall require restoration and clean-up to pre-project level condition prior to contractor demobilization. During current continuing Contractor use of the campsite and before complete demobilization, it is recommended that all the ponds used by the Contractor shall be provided with barrier or safety tapes to warn for danger and keep out children from falling into these ponds. d) In PS 10, warning signs and safety barriers were not enough in the RC Box/Bridge works. Workers doing formworks were not fully provided with safety harness while working at heights. At PK 10+400, stockpile of materials in front of school was observed. In PS 9, detour road signs were removed since the RC Box/Bridge works is nearing completion, it is important to remind the Contractor to restore the detour road to its pre-project level prior to demobilization. In PS 5, RC Box works were provided with safe tapes. It is recommended that besides barricading the work areas, safety warning signs be also provided (such as slow down, detour, etc.). e) In BB 5, some high embankment areas especially at PK 3+185 was not properly barricaded and no warning or safety signs provided to warn for safety passage. Contractor needs to provide signs to guide the local traffic. f) Safety and warning signs are limited along the alignment of the SR-7road construction areas. It is recommended that adequate signs be provided to ensure warning and safe passage of vehicles and the community in general. g) In CW7A, Contractor is utilizing a dilapidated toilet of the house owner (Contractor needs to assist the owner to make repairs. VIII. Consultation Activities Results and list of people consulted during the activity can be found in Annex A – Field Notes.

VIII. Conclusion and Recommendation Environmental monitoring is conducted regularly by DDIS staff for all of the sub-projects where Checklist of EMP Implementation are regularly prepared and concurred by Contractors. These are maintained in both the Resident Engineers’ Offices and in the DDIS Offices. The monitoring program and process include checking progress report of individual packages, implementation of EMP, field investigations, discussion and consultations with selected resident engineers, assistant resident engineers, site inspectors, contractor’s site engineers, and consultations with local people and local authorities. Field observations of roads improvement/construction activities indicate there are only minor environmental and social concerns resulting from the project activities. And there were no complaints (except one which was verbally discussed where one of the road is deemed slippery during rainy days due to unfinished compaction) recorded regarding project impacts and donation to the project. The interviews, however, shows that they are for the most part very happy with the project because they prefer the new DBST road with good access to facilitate travelling from one place to another. To properly address environmental management requirements, Contractors shall:

- Sustain availability of their staff that had participated in the Safeguard trainings

provided by the ADB through the project during the period (March and April 2018);

- Make available these staff for more Safeguard trainings that will be scheduled by the

project through the ADB, MRD and DDIS Consultants. This will further enhance the

environmental management knowledge, skills and attitude of this cadre of Contractor

D.2 Summary of field results and pictures One 25-28 June 2018 the consultant of DDIS Team conducted compliance monitoring on environmental and social safeguards of construction activities for road Subprojects in several provincial project areas such as: Kampong Chhnang, Pursat, Battambang, and Banteay Meanchey province. During the site visits, the team coordinated with RE/ARE, site engineers, inspectors construction staffs, and local authorities to discuss findings and corrective actions. Kampong Chhnang Province (June 25, 2018) 1. KCH-2 (Campsite) The KCH2: 23.2km is located in Vealsbov, Tang Krasaing, and Krang Leav Commune, Rolear B’ear District.

- ADB Review Mission recommended Contractor and Supervision consultant to immediately address wastewater issue discharged into a farmer’ field and ensure farmland restored to pre-subproject level.

- Corrective action of the Contractor in response to ADB Review Mission finding was to provide 2m wide x 10 m long x 1 m deep settling pond. Albeit action already taken, this maybe too shallow to allow sediments to settle first, and to accommodate rainfall volume (especially during this rainy season). Recommend to deepen the settling pond unless Contractor can prove that it is enough; provide two compartments to allow primary settling; re-use water by pumping into an adjacent pond currently used; and desilt regularly.

- We recommend water quality testing of this settling pond to determine contaminants and to also reuse water from this pond. The Ministry of Environment and MOWRAM we heard has laboratory capabilities to handle the tests.

Page 41: Environmental Monitoring Report › sites › default › files › project...KT1 Thnot – O Angkor Stung – Prasath Ballang 40.00 1 road Sub total 40.00 Mekong River Islands 50

39

- As baseline, we recommend testing also the water quality of the nearby water pond used to wash the gravel to compare the parameters. Maybe, it will be good to also take soil samples for laboratory testing.

- campsite requires restoration and clean-up to pre-project level condition prior to contractor demobilization)

- Campsite provided by Commune rent-free as confirmed by Commune Officials. - In the campsite, there are no fencing and safety barrier; and no safe container/tank to

store oil wastes to prevent soil leaching 2. KCH 1 KCK14.1km: is located in Bantey Prel Commune, Rolear B’ear District.

- The road construction is almost finished, with remaining 02 culverts under construction.
