DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WASTE WATER SECTOR REPORT 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1. SHANGHAI MUNICIPALITY With a total population of over 16 million inhabitants1 excluding the “floating population”2 , Shanghai is China’s largest city and the third largest in Asia. Together with Beijing, Chongqing and Tianjin, Shanghai is one of the municipalities under direct control of the Central Government. Situated within the Yangtze Delta Region stretching from Ningbo in Zhejiang Province to Nanjing in Jiangsu Province, Shanghai is at the apex of a very large, highly urbanised and rapidly industrialising corridor. By 2005 this corridor will have a population slightly over 90 million inhabitants.

THE SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT The Shanghai Urban Environment Project (SHUEP) is intended to provide a sustainable environmental setting for the long-term economic and social development in the Municipality of Shanghai (see Figure 1) while supporting the provision of urban infrastructure. 1 According to the 2000 Census the total population in Shanghai was 16.41 million inhabitants, of which 13.14 were had an urban registration and 3.27 were “long-stay” migrants. 2 Estimates as high as 3 million have been recently proposed SOGREAH –CMY/HGX – 655055.R3.3 – DRAFT PAGE 1 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT – THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT – APL2 - DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WASTE WATER SECTOR REPORT The SHUEP which was approved by the World Bank in June 2003 [Ref.11] would aim to support SMG to: • Implement the urban environment goal of its development strategy and thereby help to ensure that economic growth takes place in an environmentally and institutionally sustainable manner; • Provide major long-term environmental benefits to its millions of citizens and to the ecology of Shanghai Municipality; and • Develop innovative policies, institutional reforms and financing methods that are needed to support the environmental goals and that will serve as models for local government and environmental reform throughout China. Recognising that to achieve the desired development goals may require many years to resolve and cannot be addressed by a conventional3 (or typical) investment operation, the SHUEP has been devised as an Adaptable Program Loan consisting of a series of loans over a 7-10 year period, divided into 3 phases. A key requirement of the APL is that there is a clear and feasible development program in place to guide implementation of the projects and to provide clear milestones and benchmarks for policy and institutional reform. 1.2.1. THE OVERALL APL FRAMEWORK The overall framework for the SHUEP APL has been formulated in the Development Programme for Shanghai APL Project [Ref. 12]. As indicated in the document, the framework complies with (and has indeed been built upon) the Tenth Five Year Plan and the Shanghai General Master Plan. The APL has been divided into three phases. Each phase has a broad theme leading to a series of objectives, components, actions and triggers, and performance indicators. Although initially the core program/themes of the APL appears to form a continuum in time, in conceptual terms each phase is designed to give prominence to one aspect of the urban environmental strategy being pursued. As described in the Project Appraisal Document [Ref.11]: In Phase 1 prominence is given to further developing the underpinnings and enabling condition to pursue an integrated/regional approach to environmental issues. Investments included in this phase are those that are already known to be priority components of the integrated/regional approach (including the protection of upstream sources for water supply, expansion of shared landfills, complementary investments to increase efficiency of earlier investments). Further development of integrated/regional programs and related investments is expected to be continued during subsequent phases. Phase 1 will also test new approaches to upgrading urban environmental services in a poorer, underserved area through a pilot program. Phase 2 will support implementation of programs that address environmental issues of greater complexity and respond to the deepening of SMG’s work on the environmental agenda (including solid waste management program consolidation, bond finance and a district financing vehicle, and continue to expand the pilot approaches to upgrading urban environment services in poorer, underserved areas). Preparations for these Phase 2 activities are to be made during implementation of Phase 1. 3 It should not however be ignored that Shanghai has had a long and fruitful relationship with multi-lateral lending agencies such as the World Bank. Significant Projects in the environment sector include: • Shanghai Sewerage Project, • Shanghai Environment Programme • Second Shanghai Sewerage Programme • Suzhou Creek Rehabilitation SOGREAH –CMY/HGX – 655055.R3.3 – DRAFT PAGE 2 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT – THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT – APL2 - DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WASTE WATER SECTOR REPORT Phase 3 is the stage at which the Shanghai authorities hope to begin realising the fruits of their efforts to build up to a sustainable financial system for urban environment services. It is anticipated that further improvements to the operations, management and finances of at least some urban environment service utilities over the course of Phases 1 and 2 would enable the to move beyond the municipal budget to finance their capital investments on acceptable terms, either on the capital markets and/or obtaining finance from a sustainable district financing vehicle. Complementing this is the development and establishment during Phases 1 and 2 of the supply side, including enabling capital market/financing arrangements and institutions. Phase 3 also continues the deepening of the environmental agenda, moving on to begin pursuing some of the improvements in air quality potentially available from the increased supply of natural gas to the Shanghai metropolitan area. A summary of the sectors and key components proposed for inclusion in the Shanghai Urban Environment Project is included in Figure 2.

PHASE 2 OF THE APL (APL2) SHUEP APL2 is planned to continue with the improvements to the infrastructure and environmental needs of the city proper, with phase 2 of the solid waste disposal project, and urban environment improvements as its main tasks. SHUEP Phase 2 will, at the same time, provide assistance to the governments at suburban district and county level in improving their infrastructure and service quality with the focus on several sewerage projects in the suburban area. During the implementation process, Shanghai will try new financing methods and mechanism in the city proper and suburban area. SHUEP Phase 2 will start in the second half of 2003 and should be completed in 2008. Since the outlining of the initial development programme, upon which the SHUEP has been based, a number of factors have intervened: • It has become evident that economic and population growth in Shanghai has been and will continue to exceed expectations as outlined in the master plan of 2002 and the associated sector plans. Although the development programme as initially outlined is still relevant, the sector plans are themselves outdated and require updating to support further the SHUEP. • The award of the Universal Expo 2010 to Shanghai, has further strengthened the commitment of Shanghai to the improvement of its environment. With the adoption of the “Better City, Better Life”, Shanghai aims at becoming an international financial centre, with a concomitant improvement in environmental conditions and service provision. A notable feature of this enhanced awareness of environmental issues is the adoption of more ambitious targets, notably for water supply where it is proposed to provide drinkable water quality to the consumer by 2010. The framework of the APL2 has therefore been adapted to reflect the new priorities of SMG. The components can be broadly sub-divided into 5 categories: • Water Sector Components, consisting of – Shanghai South Water Company Components – Minhang Water Company Components • Waste Water Sector Components (of SMSC) – North West Drainage Area Component – Sludge Treatment Component • Solid Waste Components – Gucun dump closure – Minhang dump closure – Sanlintan dump closure • District Financing Vehicle Componets – Chongming Wastewater; – Huaxin Wastewater – Chongming Solid Waste – Jinshan Solid Waste • Institutional Strengthening and Training An overview of the proposed framework for APL2 is included in Figure 3 Triggers for APL2 will consist of: 1) SHUEP Phase 1 should be ongoing/completed successfully with both SMG and the World Bank satisfied. 2) The various investment plans for SHUEP Phase 2 should be approved by SMG and SDPC and the project preparation should be agreed by the World Bank. SOGREAH –CMY/HGX – 655055.R3.3 – DRAFT PAGE 4 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT – THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT – APL2 - DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WASTE WATER SECTOR REPORT 3) Approval of the Upper Huangpu Catchment Management Plan, including recommendations for pollution source control and relevant institutional strengthening in the drinking water protection area. 4) Implementation of a publicity campaign for water conservation. 5) Approval of the Municipal Solid Waste Disposal Master Plan, including adopting market- oriented charges on users, treatment, disposal, solid waste discharge fee, service charge policy, waste volume reduction, recovery and recycling, and the management and disposal of toxic and hospital wastes. 6) Start to prepare policies and regulations suitable for service/management contracts and/or a concession, and the signing of a social capital participation contract (BOT or concession) for a wastewater treatment facility. 7) Prepare the plan and prospectus for the issuance of long term domestic bonds for infrastructure financing. SMG will make every effort to obtain approval from the Central Government. 8) SMG will initiate a study on the policy and action plan for the establishment of a pilot water source protection fund. 9) Regulations drafted and submitted for municipal approval for agricultural pollution control.

PROJECT BACKGROUND & DESCRIPTION 2.1. REGIONAL CONTEXT FOR THE WASTE WATER MANAGEMENT Shanghai is one of the most important economical, technical, financial, trade, information and cultural centre of China with the largest density of population. According to the “Shanghai Sewage System Specialised Masterplan”, the total population of Shanghai is expected to reach 16,000,000 in 2020 and the total quantity of sewage discharge is expected to be approximately 5,880,000m3/d. In order to protect the surface water quality, Shanghai Municipality Government has completed the 1st phase of Suzhou Creek Rehabilitation Project on the basis of Shanghai Sewage Project Phase 1 and Phase 2 (SSP1 and SSP2), meanwhile SSP3 and the 2nd phase of Suzhou Creek Rehabilitation Project have also been started. In the last few years, Shanghai completed many large-scale municipal WWTPs which have improved considerably the general water quality. However, the implementation of these WWTPs also increased the amount of sludge produced and raised issues regarding sludge management. By the end of 2003, secondary WWTPs’ treatment capacity has reached 900,000m3/d and primary WWTPs’ treatment capacity is 2,920,000m3/d. These WWTPs are producing sewage sludge over 1,000m3/d. In 1991 an experimental sludge sanitary landfill site with an area of 3500m2 is built in Taopu area, which is used for the disposal of sludge from Caoyang WWTP. In 1998, the sludge drying and incineration facility have been respectively installed in Sinopec Shanghai WWTP and Taopu WWTP with the design capacity of 200t dewatered sludge per day (with the water content about 80%) and 50t/d (with the water content about 85%). In September, 2004, the sludge drying and incineration facilities were installed in Shanghai Shidongkou Municipal WWTP, which is now under commissioning. However, all these sludge treatment facilities are either too small or beyond normal operation, thus there is still no successful application for sewage sludge in Shanghai. At the present, the majority of sludge after suitable dewatering is transported to the suburbs or in the countryside and is used as fertiliser for agriculture. However, the fast growing urban economy development will lead to an increasing quantity of sewage sludge and the re-use of sludge as fertilisers will be more and more difficult. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the management of sewage and sludge in order to reduce the sludge quantity. In Shanghai, all of the WWTP are solely equipped with dehydration treatment sludge process with the exception of three WWTP which are also equipped with a stabilisation process. According to the Pollutant Standards discharge for the Waste Water Plant (GB18918-2002), a stabilisation treatment system is required. 2.2. SUMMARY OF PROJECT COMPONENTS The waste water components of the SHUEP-APL2 are the construction of the Western trunk sewer and the construction of the Bailonggang management facility.

EXISTING SITUATION FOR EACH COMPONENTS 2.4.1. WEST TRUNK SEWER The Western Trunk Sewer was constructed in 1971 for the improvement of water quality in Suzhou Creek. From 1970’s to the early 1990 ‘s, the west trunk sewer collected combined sewage from five districts, namely Putuo, Jing’an, Changning, Zhabei and Huangpu, and municipal sewage from Taopu, Nanxiang and Baosteel areas, and finally discharged the wastewater into Yangzte river near ShiDongkou. In the 1990’s, with the launch of Shanghai Sewage Projects (SSP1 and SSP2), two main sewer lines were completed in order to improve Shanghai sewage system. The implemented SSP1 took over some areas that were served by Western Trunk Sewer. The Western trunk sewer has an overall length of 23.2km, starting from Xincun Road pumping station in the south and arriving at Shidongkou WWTP in Baoshan. The Western Trunk Sewer covers approximately an area of 192km2 and enables the collection of wastewater for 1,785,500 people. Its original design flow rate is 600,000m3/d. In 2003, the average flow rate of sewage in Western Trunk sewer was estimated to be 287,000m3/d. Main sewer pipe Because of its old design criteria and long operation time, there are several problems emerging currently in Western Trunk Sewer. These problems were as below. • During the time Western Tunk Sewer was built, the sub-urban of old Shanghai was a rural area. Development of the area caused presence of physical structures on sewer route. As a consequence one third of manholes are currentlt destroyed or are missing. • Brick arch and reinforcement arch shape were used to build this trunk sewer without necessary inner coating for corrosion control. Therefore the current sewer supporting structure is heavily corroded. • No flow meters have being installed along this trunk sewer • Serious sedimentation happened in some parts of this trunk sewer after connectionof the western trunk sewer with the SSP1, causing clogging of the pipe and difunctionning of the inverted siphons. Pumping Stations There are 5 pump stations along whole West Trunk Line from Xincun Road~Shidongkou, namely Xincun Road Pumping Station, Zouma Pond Pumping Station, Yunzao Brook Pumping Station, Meipuhe Pump Station and Lianqi Pumping Station. The following issues were observed in all the pumping stations with the exception of Xincun Road Pumping Station: SOGREAH –CMY/HGX – 655055.R3.3 – DRAFT PAGE 13 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT – THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT – APL2 - DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WASTE WATER SECTOR REPORT • Derelict state including leakages and cracks on the pumpiing station walls and roofs, tank walls, concrete surface of the water shaft and floor. • Pumping stations dating from 1971 are in bad condition which causes operational disfunctionning and make replacing part difficult. Non conformity of the equipment. • The Pumping stations do not have any monitoring equipement such as flow meters, water grid. Connection of branch lines Currently 32 branche lines are connected to the main sewer. However, the Western Trunk Sewer route is crossing the area of Baosham, but no connnection exists between the sewer branc line of this area and the sewer. Therefore the waste water from the branch lines is discharged to the wester trunk by connection to manholes and overflow outfalls. Current flow characteristics The average sewage flow rate in the western trunk sewer ranged from 218,000m3/d in 2001 to 286,700m3/d in 2003 and the maximum sewage flow rate ranged from 300,000m3/d in 1971 to 600,000m3/d in 1980. The flow rate of sewage collected by the western trunk is variable from one day to another. Its variability may be attributed to (1) the branches before the Xincun road pumping stations are connected to the SSP1 sewer and (2) the water collected by the western trunk sewer is combined rain-water and sewage water due to the delay of the construction of the drainage network during development of residential areas. At present the average sewage flow rate in 250,000m3/d in dry weather and the average flowrate for rainwater by rainy day is 107,000m3/d (this rainwater flowrate can reach 250,000m3/d by very heavy rain). Monitoring of the existing system Due to its derelict state (manholes destroyed or missing, lack of monitoring equipment such as flowmeter), the monitoring of the existing western trunk sewer is thought to be minimum. No data could be found regarding these. Shidongkou Waste Water Treatment Plant (WWTP) and future Taihe WWTP The western trunk sewer discharge is Shidongkou WWTP, one of the six major zones for sewage systems in Shanghai. The Shidongkou waste water treatment capacity is limited to 400,000m3/d in order to protect the downstream water intake. The actual treatment quantity of about 330,000m3/d. The treated wastewater comes from the separate system consisting of 40% industrial wastewater and 60% domestic wastewater, whose quality is shown in the following table: TABLE 3 INFLUENT AND EFFLUENT QUALITY OF SHIDONGKOU WWTP Item COD(mg/l) BOD(mg/l) SS(mg/l) NH3-N(mg/l) TP(mg/l) TN(mg/l) Influent 400 200 250 30 4.5 / Effluent ≤60 ≤20 ≤20 ≤10 ≤1 ≤15 The treatment and disposal for the sludge from Shidongkou WWTP is as follows: Thickening Dewatering Drying Incineration Landfill SOGREAH –CMY/HGX – 655055.R3.3 – DRAFT PAGE 14 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT – THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT – APL2 - DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WASTE WATER SECTOR REPORT In the future, the implementation of a WWTP located in the Baoshan district should enable to treat overflow sewage coming from the western trunk which cannot be treated by the Shidongkou WWTP. According to the professional planning of the town sewage system in Baoshan District, the future Taihe WWTP will be located to the north side of Yunzao Brook in Baoshan District, between Yangsheng River and Jiangyang Road. Future Taihe WWTP design will enable to treat 150,000~300,000m3/d of sewage and to treat the excess water from the western trunk. 2.4.2. BAILONGGANG WWTP Bailonggang WWTP Bailonggang WWTP is located in Pudong New District, on the eastern bank of the Yangtze River. As the following-on project of Shanghai Sewage Project Phase 2 (SSP2), Bailonggang WWTP mainly treats sewage collected by SSP2 which decreases release of contaminant in the Yangtze estuary and protects the water environment of Huangpu River and Yantze River. The Bailonggang WWTP currently treats 1,200,000m3/d of waste water by primary treatment process (flocculants and auxiliary agents), in which waste water goes through screen, grit removal chamber, high sedimentation tank (removal of phosphorous and organic pollutants) and finally discharges into Yangzte River. In the future, the capacity of the Bailonggang WWTP shall be increased to 2,100,000m3/d and secondary treatment (biofilters) will be added. Sludge Treatment At present, sludge produced from existing Bailonggang is treated using a dewatering process as described below. After dewatering the sludge is disposed in a sanitary landfill especially designed to receive sludge. The landfill is used to dispose sludge from Bailonggang and Zhuangang WWTP and its capacity is estimated to 5 years. FIGURE 5 CURRENT SLUDGE TREATMENT IN BAILONGGANG WWTP Storage Dewatering Sludge Sludge Landfill Tank house Stockhouse Site The quantity of sludge produced by the WWTP from the sedimentation tank is 6,933m3/d (97% of water). The sludge after dehydration treatment has 70% of water which represent a volume equivalent to 208tDS/d. 2.4.3. ZHUYUAN NO.1 AND NO.2 WWTPS Zhuyuan No.1 WWTP is located north of the discharge trunk of SSP1, south of Haitang Road, East of Urban Outer Ring (Eastern Ring No.1 Avenue) and west of Yangtze Dyke with the treatment capacity of 1.70million m3/d. The Phase One of Zhuyuan No.1 WWTP is now still under construction, which is equiped with the enhanced primary treatment process for the removal of SS and P. However, in the long term the secondary (biological) treatment will be added to meet the requirements of national discharge standard Class II as shown in the flow chart of Figure 6.

NEED FOR THE PROJECT The rehabilitation project of the Western Trunk Sewer is urgently needed for the following reasons: • The existing western collection system (serving the Baoshan & Jiading areas) is overloaded, structurally unsound and in need of urgent replacing; • Increase the capacity of the sewer to satisfy the requirement of wastewater discharge increase estimated for the future • Maximise the treatment capacity of Shidongkou WWTP, by enabling constant sewage incoming flow into the factory. • Improve the existing problem raised by the collection of mixed rain and sewage water. • Enable collection of waste water from the Boashan area to promote environmental and economical development of the area: • Any discharge of wastewater to the Yangtze upstream of Shanghai’s proposed long term water supply intakes and storage systems is undesirable, and should be eliminated or minimized. Implementation of the Bailonggang Management Facility is needed for the reasons as follows: • Sludge and sewage treatments are of equal importance to solve urban water pollution issue. Sludge treatment and disposal are the safeguard for the final implementation of sewage treatment. • Compliance with the “Pollutant Discharge Standard for Urban Sewage Treatment Plants” (GB18918-2002) - This standard defines the sludge control criteria, requires the sludge of urban sewage treatment plants to be subject to stabilized treatment and specifies the control indexes. Sludge contains nutrients and useable substances. When sludge outlet is solved, sludge resourcing can be realized. Therefore, it is fully necessary to build the sludge treatment project of Bailonggang Urban Sewage Treatment Plant to make its sludge treatment meet the national standard. SOGREAH –CMY/HGX – 655055.R3.3 – DRAFT PAGE 17 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT – THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT – APL2 - DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WASTE WATER SECTOR REPORT • Compliance to the target of the urban plan for sludge treatment and disposal - in near term, the stabilization rate of sewage sludge in Shanghai shall reach 100%. Bailonggang Sewage Treatment Plant has a large scale and produces a bigger amount of sludge, accounting for a high percentage in the total sewage sludge of Shanghai. This project plays an important part for Shanghai to realize the control target of sewage sludge. • Long term sludge treatment facility - The current disposal sludge capacity of the lagoon / landfill site present on the plant site is 5 years. Therefore, a long term option for sludge treatment / disposal / management is required. • Support the predicted increase of volume of produced sludge associated to an increase of treatment capacity of the Bailonggang WWTP. In the near future, the capacity of the Bailonggang WWTP will double, causing increase of sludge production and increasing the issues associated with sludge disposal. • The Bailonggang sludge management facility is considered as a trial for sludge treatment /management in Shanghai. If its efficiency is demonstrated, it could be used in other WWTP located in the area of Shanghai. And besides the objectives of compliance with urban sludge treatment plan and “Pollutant Discharge Standard for Urban Sewage Treatment Plants” (GB18918-2002), the necessity of Zhuyuan Sludge Management Facilities lies in: • These two WWTPs (Zhuyuan No.1 and No.2 WWTP) are expected to be put into full operation around 2005 with the total wastewater treatment quantity of 2.2million m3/d. Therefore the sludge treatment is necessary to ensure the safe operation of the WWTPs. • These two WWTPs are estimated to produce a large amout of sludge, that is, 309tDS/d including screenings, grit, residual activated sludge and some chemical sludge with the total volume up to 883m3/d (65% water content), which need further reduction. • The potentail hazards of sludge from Zhuyuan WWTPs, mainly including heavy metal, organic matters and pathogen, require proper treatment and disposal. • In the original design of Zhuyuan No.1 and No.2 WWTPs, the dehydrated sludge is directly sent to Bailonggang without stabilization. However due to the limited capacity of Bailonggang sludge landfill site and also considering sludge reutilization, it is necessary to carry out the stabilization treatment. 2.6. DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT COMPONENTS 2.6.1. WESTERN TRUNK SEWER The Western Trunk Sewer includes three components: construction of a main sewage pipe, construction or upgrading of pumping stations and transformation of connection between main sewage and branches in the Boashan area. The location of the western trunk is presented in Figure 9 Western Trunk Sewer main pipe The route for the sewer pipe has not yet been established definitively but will aim to unify the existing system and the proposed system as appropriately as possible. The total length of the main pipeline is estimated to 24.3km (see Figure 10). The recommended pipeline route is : Xincun Road pumping station-Xixiang Road-Pingli Road-Zhidan Road-West Guangzhong Road- Yuncheng Road-Gaoping Road-Wenshui Road-the planned Kangping Road-the planned Fuchang Road-Shitai Road-Yunchuan Road-Meishui Road-Shidongkou WWTP. SOGREAH –CMY/HGX – 655055.R3.3 – DRAFT PAGE 18 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT – THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT – APL2 - DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WASTE WATER SECTOR REPORT The main pipeline sewer design will use both gravity and pressure flow. The design will include use of φ2400~φ2700mm pipeline, use automatic ventilation valves or ventilation holes every 500 to 1000m for pressure pipes (flow). For the inverted siphon, the design needs the requirement of velocity of 0.9m/s. The open trench method, the pipe jacking method, the coffer dam methods will be used during construction. Pumping stations Four pumping stations are proposed to be redeveloped including upgrading of the existing Xincun road pumping stations and construction of the three other stations: Zoumatang, Wenzoabang and Yuelo road. At proximity of the Wenzaobang sewage pumping station, four water storage tanks (Total volume of 100,000m3) will be built.

BAILONGGANG SLUDGE MANAGEMENT FACILITY The sludge treatment facilities will be laid out in the reserved area in Bailonggang WWTP on the lee, namely northwest of the plant just beside the existing sludge treatment works (the storage tanks and the dewatering house). The sludge treatment area is isolated from other areas by greening belts, and another piece of land is also reserved in the east of the sludge treatment area for the long-term expansion of the WWTP (see Figure 6 and 7). The sludge management facility is designed for the 6,933m3/d wet sewage sludge (97% of water content) produced by the treatment of 1,200,000m3/d wastewater at Bailonggang WWTP. The process will use anaerobic digestion, in which the generated gas could be utilized in the methane boiler and also as the heat source for the planned pilot drying process. It is a relative mature process and more convenient in operation management with a lower treatment cost compared to other stabilization process, especially for such a large-scale WWTP. FIGURE 11: DIGESTION TANK PROCESS Gas Gas Heat exchanger In-sludge (70→60℃) Reaction area Recycling Digested sludge The quantity of treated sludge will increase in the medium and long term (current sludge production 208tDS/d, medium term sludge production 217tDS/d, long term sludge production 380tDS/d). The capacity of the sludge management facility will correspondingly be expanded in the future to meet the increase of sludge production. The main sludge treatment processes are summarised in Table 5. In the short term, drying of the sludge will only be carried out on a pilot scale: 10% of the digested sludge will be dried (30% of water content) and 90% of the sludge will be dewatered (70% of water content). In the long term, all the sludge should be dried and achieve a water content of 30%.

ZHUYUAN SLUDGE MANAGEMENT FACILITY The sludge management facility is planned to be located in the reclaimed area near the deep water discharge outlet, which is to the southeast of Zhuyuan No.1 WWTP and to the east of Zhuyuan No.2 WWTP with the area of 13.15ha. The project includes the stabilization and drying treatment for sludge from both Zhuyuan No.1 and No.2 WWTPs. And in order to ensure the smooth process flow, the constructed dewatering house of Zhuyuan No.1 WWTP will be removed at the same time. The sludge management facility is designed for the 10,300m3/d wet sewage sludge (97% of water content), produced by the treatment of 2,200,000m3/d wastewater (1,700,000m3/d from Zhuyuan No.1 WWTP and 500,000m3/d from Zhuyuan No.2 WWTP). The same process as Bailonggang Management Facility will be used, which is anaerobic digestion, in which the generated gas could be utilized in the methane boiler and also as the heat source for the drying process. The quantity of treated sludge will be 309tDS/d, among which 255tDS/d from Zhuyuan No.1 WWTP and 54tDS/d from Zhuyuan No.2 WWTP. Since the sludge from the two WWTPs are different due to their different wastewater treatment process, a conditioning and mixing well should be properly installed before digestion. And tow sludge feeding pipelines are planned for the more flexible operation. The main sludge treatment works are summarised in the following table. TABLE 8: SUMMARY OF THE MAIN SLUDGE TREATMENT WORKS Treatment works Major design parameters Design capacity The wastewater treatment capacity is 2.20million m3/d, sludge treatment capacity is 309t DS/d, and the wet sludge flow rate is 10,300m3/d with water content of 97%.

ENVIRONMENTAL BASELINE SITUATION 3.1. REGIONAL PHYSICAL SETTING 3.1.1.1. GEOGRAPHY The waste water components are located within the Shanghai Municipality which is at the southeast edge of the estuary in Yangtze River Delta. In the area, the topography is relatively uniform ranging from 3.8 to 5.0mAOD. The WTS component is located in the Shanghai urban district including Putuo, Zhabei and Baoshan areas. The BSMF component is located within Heqing town of Pudong new district along the estuary of Yangzte River. 3.1.1.2. GEOLOGY The regional geology of the area of Shanghai is generally composed by a top layer of alluvium, marine and fluvial deposits to a depth of 30m. Underneath the alluvium, there are tertiary volcanic rocks and Jurassic volcanic rocks. The volcanic activities of late Jurassic in this area is controlled by the regional fracture structure of Fengjing-Chuansha base. The volcanic basin of Jinqiao Structure develops on this fracture, and is widely distributed to the northwest. 3.1.1.3. CLIMATE Shanghai has the obvious subtropics climate characteristics. The average annual temperature is 15.7°C with an extreme temperature of 37.0°C and a lowest temperature of -7.4°C. The average annual precipitation is 1127.7mm and the average mean sunshine time is approximately 2,170 hours. On the coast, the average rainfall may be higher and reach 1,428.5mm. The average relative humidity is 80%. The annual average wind speed in this area is 3.2m/s. The main wind in the region is from southeastern direction. Secondary winds are from the northwest and northeast. In 2003, average annual temperature was 17.4°C, the sunshine time was 1,700 hours and the rainfall was 931.2mm. About 50% of the rainfall in a year occurs in the flood season from May to September, which could be divided into 3 periods: spring rain, plum rain and autumn rain. The area is often struck by typhoon or tropical storms during the wet seasons. There were 3-4 intense typhoons in the past 10 years. 3.1.1.4. HYDROLOGY The location of main rivers and reservoirs in the project area are shown on Figure 15 SOGREAH –CMY/HGX – 655055.R3.3 – DRAFT PAGE 29 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT – THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT – APL2 - DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WASTE WATER SECTOR REPORT FIGURE 15: SURFACE WATER LOCATION IN THE SHUEP AREA SOGREAH –CMY/HGX – 655055.R3.3 – DRAFT PAGE 30 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT – THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT – APL2 - DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WASTE WATER SECTOR REPORT Rivers and lakes Shanghai is covered by a complex and dense surface water network with the density of 26~27km/km2 including rivers and lakes, most of which belong to the Taihu Lake Basin. The main river, Huangpu River, originates from Taihu Lake which is located 113km away. It is 1113.4km long from Taihu Lake to Wusongkou with the width about 400m and the depth about 7-9m. Mijiadu is the major discharge canal of Taihu Lake with the average annual flow rate of about 300m3/s. Yangtze River is the biggest water resource going through Shanghai. The Shanghai section of the river is approximately 15km wide with the average flow rate about 29,300m3/s. The highest tide observed of this river section is 5.64m. Huangpu River and Yangtze River are the main water supply source of Shanghai. The inner rivers have water level of approximately 2.5m to prevent flood and to ensure the navigation and agricultural irrigation. As Shanghai is located on the East China Sea, inner canals are under tidal influence. When entering the sea the impact scope of the water from Yangtze River could reach 50 km, and normally the inland will not be impacted by saline intrusion, unless there is spring tide or the water level of inner rivers is too low. About 468,000,000 tons of mud and sand are flushed from Yangtze River into the sea, most of which is accumulated at the estuary of Yangtze River and the northern bank of Hangzhou Bay. The sand content of water from Yangtze River is higher than that of water from Huangpu River. 3.1.1.5. BEACH CHARACTERISTICS The riverside area from Laohaibin to Sanjiagang is in total 24km long, where grass seedling land, reed land and beaches are sporadically distributed with the total area of about 535.2ha.The riverside area from Sanjiagang to Panjiahong is 11.7km long with 399.4ha grass seedling land and reed land. There is a large area of beach, in which there is about 865.4ha of beach above 2-3m and about 166.7ha available for land reclamation. The eastern bank of Wusongkou is used as a 2,000m bathing beach. 3.1.1.6. GROUNDWATER In the area of Shanghai, the ground water level is relatively high with the water table depth ranging from 0.5 to 1.5m. The deep groundwater in Shanghai area is mainly stored in the sand and gravel soils of variable thickness. There are four types of aquifers in the area located to depth ranging from 20-30m to 240-250m. Shallow groundwater is brackish and becomes fresher with depth. The ground water in the shallow layers has been widely exploited. 3.1.1.7. NATURAL DISASTER The district is located at the front edge of Yangtze Delta in the mid-latitude of Latitude North, which is affected by monsoon with variable and complex climate and frequent hazardous weather. • Typhoon: The typhoon period is from July to September every year. Typhoon intensity is amplified when there is meteorological tide. • Drought: The drought happens during summer and autumn according to ten years’ historical record. • Hailstorm: It happens normally between April and August, for example, in 1971, 1975, 1977 and 1985.

The national anti- seismic standard for Shanghai construction is 6 Degree. 3.1.1.8. WATER QUALITY The surface quality within the western trunk project should comply with the class IV standard and within the Bailonggang project should comply with class II. Western Trunk area The pipeline route encounters many river courses including Zoumatang, Wenzaobang, Sha Pu, Meipu, Muru River, LianQi River and Gujing River and Yangsheng River. The quality of the water of these water courses are monitored every year by the Environment Protection Bureau for parameters including pH, Dissolved Oxygen (DO), permanganate index, Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD), Ammonia, metals, cyanide, phenol and hydrocarbons. The location of the monitoring points are shown in Figure 16. The quality results from 2002 are presented in Table 9. The monitoring results show that the quality of the water range from class I to class >V depending on the locations and on parameters monitored. The water quality of the rivers monitored should comply with class IV. However, the 2002 results showed that most of the parameters did not achieve Class IV Quality Standard, with number of parameters exceeding the class IV ranging from 2 to 9 depending on the location. The less polluted water is observed in river Gujing and the worse quality is measured in water sampled in Zoumatang River. The parameters for which the quality exceeds the class IV standard in all the samples are ammonia and total nitrate. . The quality of the water from the cross-sections of the bridge across Wenchuan Road on Wenzaobang Creek, the bridge across Wenchuan Road on Lianqi River and the bridge across North Fuchang Road on Yangsheng River has dropped in comparison with 2001 results.

Permanganate index, BOD5, COD and total phosphorous had a tendency to increase over the last few years. However, parameters such as DO, permanganate index, COD and ammonia nitrogen have been relatively constant over the last seven year of monitoring with variation ranging from 1.3 to 2.0 fold. BOD5, hydrocarbons, phenols, total phosphorous and total mercury had variation ranging from 2.7 to 3 folds. Within the Bailonggang area, the surface water should comply with Class II standard. The results indicate that only parameters such as DO, permanganate index, BOD5, COD comply to Class II, while ammonia nitrogen, hydrocarbons, phenols, total phosphorous and total mercury exceed the standards of class II and belong to Class III to IV. Overall the change of quality of surface water between 1996 and 2002 in not considered significant.

AIR QUALITY According to "the Shanghai Environment Condition Bulletin (2004)", the Shanghai ambient air quality in 2003 further improved with 325 days with good air quality in comparison with 2001. The 2002 average daily concentration of SO2, PM10, NO2 in the air achieves the Class II standard requirements. In 2002, the quality of the Boashan area was monitored (see air quality locations on Figure 10) and the average concentrations of SO2, NO2 and PM10 were measured. The concentration of SO2 complies with the class II standards. However, the concentrations of NO2 and PM10 were above their respective class II standards by 20% and 44% respectively. The air quality was monitored at the Bailonggang site for H2S, NH3 and odour at the Yangtze River beach, the Southwest boundary of WWTP and at the Chaoyang village and for SO2, NO2 and PM10 at proximity of the sludge landfill site. The results were compared with their respective environment quality standard (“Pollutant discharge standard for Urban WWTPs, Class II” for H2S and NH3 and “National environmental air quality standard, Class II” for PM10, SO2 and NO2, and “Sanitary standard for industry design”). Index results indicate that all measurements exceeded the standard of Class II with the exception of SO2 and NO2 parameters. The indexes are the highest at the location of the current lagoons for sludge disposal. The measurements recorded to the southwest of the sewage plant factory exceed slightly the levels of standards class II. The significant H2S observed in Chaoyang village may be originated from another source of pollution.

The WWTP is located close to Yangzte River which is considered to be a low noise level area. The noise level is occasionally impacted by the nearby airport and the wind. Day noise level results show that the noise levels nearly comply with Class 0 standard and that the night noise level complies with Class II. The results demonstrated that none of the noise level results exceeded the national noise level standard for class II (requirement for the Bailonggang WWTP). Therefore, it was considered that there is no noise impact from the current Bailonggang WWTP. 3.1.1.11. SLUDGE QUALITY The properties of sludge in WWTP are closely related with the properties of sewage. Since 1990s, the Shanghai Municipal Engineering Design and Research Institute has conducted analyses and measurement of the sludge produced from sewage treatment plants such as Quyang, Wusong, Tianshan, Minxing, Beijiao and Caoyang in Shanghai. These data can be used as a base for discussion of the sludge characterisation from Bailonggang.

Samples of sludge coming of the WWTP have been analysed for metals, phosphate, nitrogen and potassium everyday for 10days. All the analysis were below their respective guideline for GB18918-2002 with the exception of the Zinc and nickel for which the results are presented in Figure 17. Zinc concentration exceeds its guideline (3,000 mg/kg) by a factor of two and seven of the ten nickel sludge results are above the guideline (200mg/kg). The Volatile Suspended Solid / Suspended Solid ratio of the sludge ranged from 48 to 56%, with an average value of 52%. Characterisation of the sludge coming from the WWTP indicates that the quality of the sludge is very variable depending on the day of sampling. Validity of these results are currently checked due to their variability by carrying out further sampling and validating analysis methods.

BIOLOGICAL SETTING 3.1.2.1. TERRESTRIAL BIODIVERSITY Wildlife The wildlife in the area of Bailonggang is mainly present in farming area and consists in apodemus agrarius, rattus flavipectus, brown mouse and small mouse, yellow weasel, formosan and ferret- badger. The birds are mainly passeriformes species including sparrow, swallow, tomtit, thrush. Bird habitats are in the forests, villages and towns at night and the farmland during the daytime (quest for food). Natural vegetation To the north of the WTS component area, there is a mixed forest composed of evergreen trees and subtropical species. As most of the area is used for agriculture, there is only little natural vegetation and most of the area is occupied by crops and artificial vegetation. Within the Bailonggang area, the natural vegetation can be divided in wetland vegetation consisting in intertidal vegetation and freshwater hydrophytic vegetation on the beach of Yangtze Estuary and, terricolous vegetation. 3.1.2.2. ARTIFICIAL VEGETATION At the end of 2003, there were 833.89ha of green spaces in the Putuo area. The roadside of the area included a total of 41,435 trees and the amount of green space per inhabitant was 4.22m2. In the Boasham area, the green spaces areas were increased to 573.3ha including 352.8 ha of public green spaces and the ratio of green space per inhabitant reached 14m2/person. This increase of green spaces creates recreational places for residents and contributes to the purification of the overall air quality. In 2003, Baoshan district was awarded with the honour of “National Garden & Greening District”. In the Pudong New District, the large-scale artificial forests are road tree belt, shelter belt in farmland along the river and coastal shelter belt mainly with the forests of Platanaceae, Dawn Redwood, aspen, Cinnamomum camphora (L.)Presl and elm. Secondly there are some urban plants such as Cinnamomum camphora (L.)Presl, Lotus magnolia, cedrum deodara, gardenia, dawn redwood, taxodium mucronatum, holly, sweet viburnum, etc. Most of farmland has been acquired for the development of industry and economy, and some of the remaining farmland has been deserted. The crops left include food stuff, nursery and vegetables. 3.1.2.3. AQUATIC BIODIVERSITY The Bailonggang site is located on the sea-shore and coastal residents have lived on fishery for a long time. The nearest coastal fishery ground is Yangtze Fishery Ground, which is located in the joint area of Yangtze River and Qiantang River. The aquatics here mainly include hairtail (winter fishing season), pomfret, conger eel, jellyfish, portunidae, yellow-fin tuna (spring and summer fishing season), sunfish, cuttle fish, Palaemon gravieri, Parapenaeopsis hardwichii, Trachypenaeus curvirostris, Metapenaeus joyneri. In addition, in spring there is a large quantity of eel fries, crab fried and pomfret fries which reproduce at the Yangtze estuary.

SOCIAL SETTING 3.1.3.1. POPULATION AND ECONOMY In 2002, the Shanghai industry undertook a fast growing development which leaded to an increase of 12% of the industrial value (231,277,000,000 Yuan), an increase of 17.6% of the industrial gross production value (847,605,000,000 Yuan) and an increase of 11% of the industry sale output value (838,361,000,000 Yuan) in comparison with 2001 figures. At the end of 2002, the farming industry occupied 270,000ha, had 3,154,200 employees and the total farming output value was 23,357,000,000 Yuan. Western Trunk Sewer The western trunk sewer project is located in three areas of Shanghai including Baoshan area, Putuo area and Zhabei area. In 2003, the total population of these three areas was 1,609,000 people, representing 12% of the total Shanghai population.

In 2003, the Pudong area had a total population of 1,766,900 people (13.2% of the total population of Shanghai) The Bailonggang sludge management facility belongs to the district of Heqing town (36.45km2), which includes 2 resident committees and 30 village committees. At the end of 2003, 47,749 people (including 15,976 households) occupied this district of which 15,934 inhabitants were not rural people. The district counted 21,144 farming labourers representing 44.3% of the total population. The total output from agriculture is 63,780,000 Yuans (53% from crop production and 41% from animal farming) and represents 5.07% of the total agriculture output of the Pudong area. 3.1.3.2. QUALITY OF LIFE Health SOGREAH –CMY/HGX – 655055.R3.3 – DRAFT PAGE 39 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT – THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT – APL2 - DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WASTE WATER SECTOR REPORT At the end of 2003, Putuo area had 128 medical institutions (21 hospitals, 27 independent surgeries, 80 firm surgeries) and 5,240 medical staff. For every ten thousand people, there was an average of 45.9 hospital bed. At the end of 2003, Baoshan area had 34 medical agencies. For every 10,000 persons there are 50.2 hospital beds. Education The area of Putuo welcomes two universities (East China normal university, Tongji University branch school), 59 high school, 36 primary schools and 58 nursery school and 3 vocational schools. These institutions provide education from elementary to university level and education of mature students. The education system in Baoshan is based on the study ceramic teacher TOW”, “the region advancement” and “the development of information based on technology”. The development of these three sectors has improved comprehensively the quality of the education in Baoshan with 100% of children registered at elementary school, 96.4% of children entering high school and 81.5% entering ordinary university. 3.1.3.3. CULTURAL HERITAGE According to a visual inspection of the area, there are no famous old trees, historical sites or cultural sites along the WTS route and on the Bailonggang WWTP. 3.1.3.4. LAND USE ON PROJECT SITES The WTS component area is located in the Shanghai urban district including Puto, Zhabei and Baoshan areas. The areas of Putuo and Zhabei are mainly residential and industrial and are heavily populated. The area of Baosham is less heavily populated. Some of the project area is utilised as farming land. The Bailonggang sludge management facility will be located on the Bailonggang WWTP site. Therefore the land is currently used as a sewage treatment facility. SOGREAH –CMY/HGX – 655055.R3.3 – DRAFT PAGE 40 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT – THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT – APL2 - DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WASTE WATER SECTOR REPORT 4. IMPACT ASSESSMENT AND MITIGATION 4.1. IMPACT DUE TO PROJECT LOCATION The WST component requires land acquisition for the installation of the pipe and pumping station. Moreover, further land will be immobilised for the construction phase. As the BSMF component is located on the existing Bailonggang WWTP, it does not require any land acquisition and therefore any resettlement. The project will acquire 153,390m2 of land for the implementation of the 24,45km long sewer pipe and 39,080m2 of land for the construction or the upgrade of the four pumping stations. The land concerned by this acquisition is farmland, residential areas and industrial/commercial areas. TABLE 15 PERMANENT AND TEMPORARY LAND ACQUISITION FOR WESTERN SEWER CONSTRUCTION PERMANENT TEMPORARY NUMBER OF NUMBER OF SUBCOMPONENT LAND LAND NUMBER OF NUMBER OF AFFECTED AGRICULTURAL AREA REQUIREMENT REQUIREMENT HOUSEHOLDS INDUSTRIES PERSONS WORKERS (HA) (HA) Putuo Zhabei Baoshan Total 192,471 222,215 284 1136 To be completed from the final RAP Farming land The acquisition of farming land will lead to the loss of agricultural land and crops and to reduction of vegetable production for the area of Shanghai. Farmers will need to quit their land and to go and live in urban area. However within Shanghai context, the urbanisation is usually well perceived by the farmers as it usual increases their income. The government offers three possible placements for farmers for which the land has to be redeveloped: (A) work at a governmental business or institutions, (B) governmental subsidiaries (lump sum in one time) for relocation, (C) governmental pension for elderly people. The third impact is on farmers who contract their land. Presently landfarm in Shanghai is mainly contracted from people living in other provinces. Mitigations measures may include informing farmland contractors in advance in order to enable them to find alternative solutions (jobs or way of income). No financial compensation is suggested for farmland contractors. According to the local authority department and national relevant law, the project developer SMSC (Shanghai Municipal Sewage Company) will enable the farmers which have been relocated to obtain new jobs and will provide necessary training. Work opportunities such as service work or work dealing with this project (operation and construction phase) will be suggested for the elderly people. Residents SOGREAH –CMY/HGX – 655055.R3.3 – DRAFT PAGE 41 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT – THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT – APL2 - DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WASTE WATER SECTOR REPORT According to the project plan, 284 households must be relocated (including 266 on the sewer route and 18 on the branch transformation). The inhabitant space floor needed to relocate the households is estimated at 37,546m2. The place of relocation will be selected according to the Chinese law and regulations. There are three potential options to relocate the people affected: (A) Relocation at nearby new town. (B) Construction of their own house on a given piece of land with funds obtained for compensation. (C) Obtain financial compensation for resettlement. These options can give the advantages of gathering the farmer community, improving their living conditions (better education, culture and health system, new houses, better transportation system). The relocation can also disrupt the customs of people and create separation with neighbourhood (especially of senior citizens) and make adaptation to a new home very difficult. Relocation to the city will involve change of living conditions which are usually welcome by local residents. Residents which currently run shops on the streets will be economically impacted if the street is redeveloped. Facilities around the resettlement area (transportation, education and health facilities) will not be developed simultaneously to the residential areas which will have an impact on the quality of life of communities. Business Sixty nine businesses (61,374m2) will me impacted by the project. Seven firms will have to be totally relocated and 62 businesses will have to be partially relocated. The relocation of these firms will affect 1,590 people. Relocation places should be selected accordingly to the town plan. A new address will be given to these businesses, labour force arrangement will be proposed and economical compensation will be given to mitigate the financial loss caused by the relocation (cease of production). 4.2. IMPACT DURING CONSTRUCTION As the WTS is located within 24km corridor in a densely populated area, it is anticipated that the impacts of the construction phase will be rather significant. Since the BSMF is located within the Bailonggang WWTP, the impact of construction phase from the BSMF should be relatively low. 4.2.1. IMPACT ON SURFACE WATER Impact on run-off water The construction phase and associated heavy transportation will involve an increase of dust. During heavy storm, the solid particles will be washed to the closest receiving water bodies. The quality of receiving bodies will be impacted by high suspended solid particles content and high BOD, COD and nitrogen particles. The run-off water should be adequately drained off-site and conducted to a settling tank. The building material wastes should be restrained within a 0.50m brick bund in order to prevent dispersive material to be washed away by heavy rain and reduce the impact of sedimentation on the water environment. Impact on sedimentation Groundwater level at the site is expected to be around 0.5-1.0m below ground level and therefore groundwater is very likely to be encountered during construction. The groundwater will contain high level of silt, sand and maybe cement. The groundwater will require to be pumped and will be discharge either in water courses or in the municipal drainage system. Due to its high content of suspended particles, discharge of this water in the water course will increase the sedimentation rate of the river. Moreover if the water is discharged in municipal drainage system, the silt may clog the drainage system and create significant ground pounding which may impact access for vehicle and pedestrians. SOGREAH –CMY/HGX – 655055.R3.3 – DRAFT PAGE 42 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT – THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT – APL2 - DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WASTE WATER SECTOR REPORT In order to minimise the impact on sedimentation, the water should be pumped to a settling tank, which will enable deposition of the suspended particles. The water will then be discharged in the municipal drainage system or in the river course. The tank should be regularly dragged and the solid wastes should be disposed off adequately. Impact on river water quality For the construction of the WTS, the pipeline may cross rivers all connected to Huangpu River. Most of these rivers are not used for navigation but they are used for discharge or water supply for irrigation for farming use. When these rivers are cut by weirs, the hydraulic connection between downstream and upstream of the river is cut off. In the short term these rivers will loose their original functions which will lead to increase of upstream water level and decrease of downstream water level. If it is flood period, the water level will rise upstream and cause flooding. The nearby farmland will be impact and the way of life of the farmers will be impacted. In addition, the resident time of the pollutants in the river will increase which may result to eutrophication of the water bodies and aggravate the water quality. In case of flooding the water should be pumped. 4.2.2. IMPACT ON DUST Construction works requires excavation and storage of the excavated material soil at the site for a short term (several weeks) or a long term (several months). Non covered earth stockpiles, the passage of vehicles and influence of the wind will create an increase of dust in the atmosphere affecting the town appearance and the landscape. It has been demonstrated from similar projects that the total suspended particles present in the air of Shanghai mainly originates from construction works and can cause damages to the environment. Neighbouring buildings and vegetation will be covered by thick layer of dust. By rainy or snowy weather, dust will become mud which may make the access by pedestrians difficult. In order to minimise the impact of the dust to surrounding environment the following mitigations are proposed: • During clear and windy day, the construction waste or material should be sprayed with water or covered to prevent flying of the dust in the surroundings. • The waste management plan must include removing the waste promptly, ensuring that the transportations vehicles are not overloaded and covered in order to prevent the waste/dust to be released along the way. The exit of the construction site should be equipped with a wheel-washing basin and the site construction gate should be cleaned regularly to prevent migration of soil/dust off site. • The construction agency should comply with the “Shanghai Management Method for the flying dust pollution prevention”, May 15th 2004 issued by Shanghai Municipal government. The article 8 gives the general requirement for dust prevention for project construction such construction of fences around the site and construction good practise to minimise dust production. 4.2.3. IMPACT ON NOISE Excavation of soil, construction of pumping stations, equipment engine and transportation of construction material will increase the level of noise in the area which may affect the work or the rest of local residents. The noise level from construction work can reach 80-95dB (A) within 100m from the construction site. SOGREAH –CMY/HGX – 655055.R3.3 – DRAFT PAGE 43 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT – THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT – APL2 - DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WASTE WATER SECTOR REPORT According to the Environment Noise Prevention Law of People’s Republic of China, construction works located in a central urban district are prohibited at night, unless they obtained special authorisation at the county level. Therefore, construction works must comply with this regulation and reduce the noise level as much as possible. According to the noise Standard for the boundary of the construction site during the construction period, if construction is carried out during night time with noise exceeding the standard, the construction agency should apply for permission to the Local EPB. Construction may be allowed only during approved assigned dates. Soundproof barriers should be constructed outside around the construction site and sound-screen should be installed around the high level noise equipment. In addition, the traffic around the construction site should be controlled in order to avoid traffic jam and to minimise as much as possible the noise level. The noise should be monitored during the construction phase as part as the construction management plan. In the context of Bailonggang component, the noise from the construction site is not considered to be an issue as the closest building is located 180m away. However, existing noise from truck traffic carrying sludge from Zhuyang to Bailonggang WWTP is a sensitive issue for the residents of Chaoyang village. In order to mitigate the noise from traffic, the transportation of building material should be suspended from 11:00PM to 6:00AM. 4.2.4. IMPACT OF CONSTRUCTION WORKERS Sanitary wastes and domestic wastes from the construction workers may affect the hygiene of the surroundings environment and cause sanitation issues such as presence of fetid odours, development of diseases and increase of the mosquito population. This may generally affect human health at the campsite and in the surrounding areas. The canteen waste water produced by the construction workers should be passed through an oil separator and waste water should be discharged into a septic tank before discharge in the municipal sewage network. The septic tank should be cleaned and take away regularly to guarantee good sanitation conditions on site. The construction phase may require the intervention of numerous workers at the site: a multi-stage construction is envisaged in order to maximise the efficiency of the construction. The construction and the project manager will have to make sure that they contact the local environment sanitation department in order to ensure that the domestic wastes are cleaned up promptly from the site. The project manager will have to inform the constructor regarding good practice of waste management at the site (e.g. no random dumping of domestic waste) to guarantee good hygiene and health conditions for the construction workers. 4.2.5. IMPACT SPECIFIC TO THE WTS 4.2.5.1. IMPACT ON FARMING ACTIVITIES Land immobilisation Farming land will have to be temporarily taken for storing the construction equipment and workers facilities (total area of 222,215m2 including 175,688m2 for the restoration and installation of the sewer pipe and 46,527m2 for the branch project). During construction work, the agricultural production will be stopped and that will have an impact on the farmers and their level of productivity. Moreover, the use of the land as the storage for equipment or vehicle transfer will impact the fertility and the characteristics of the ground (compressed earth, addition of sand and rubbles) and as a consequence make the soil unsuitable for cultivation. SOGREAH –CMY/HGX – 655055.R3.3 – DRAFT PAGE 44 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT – THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT – APL2 - DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WASTE WATER SECTOR REPORT At the end of the construction phase the farming land temporarily borrowed will have to be restored to its original condition in order to enable farmland productivity. During construction, surface soils (0 to 1m) and deeper soil (below 1m) should be piled separately and re-used for backfilling in the same order it has been excavated. After backfilling, the initial structure of the land should be restored. The construction material must be piled up on railing. After completion of the construction, each village should coordinate the construction department to ensure that the site is clean and has been levelled. Addition of fertilisers may be required for the land to retrieve its fertility and enable good farming productivity. Uncontrolled water drainage from construction Draining water from construction (if it is not properly managed) may disperse into the farmland and impact soil fertility and normal crop growth. Therefore, the construction contractor should have a good knowledge of the topography of the ground and the drainage flow direction in order to designate an adequate drainage system. Irrigation of the land The excavation of parts of the drainage ditch may affect the overall irrigation network used in farming and impact the local agriculture and farmers’ income. Therefore, construction plan has to include identification of temporary alternative irrigation measures in order to mitigate the impact. Temporarily blocked irrigation or drainage canal should be reinstated as quickly as possible to guarantee irrigation and drainage functions. 4.2.5.2. IMPACT ON TRAFFIC Impact on road traffic The road traffic from Xincun road to the Wastewater Treatment Plant of Shi Dongkou is very dense. The pipe route is crossing 20 roads, river course and the railway. Construction will lead to disturbance of the road traffic including road diversion, road narrowing and as a consequence the traffic will become denser. Diversion of roads will intensify the traffic of surrounding areas. Presence of piles of earth and construction material along the road will create dust clouds on dry days and mud on wet days. Therefore the traffic conditions can be made very difficult and dangerous and accident may occur due combined presence of pedestrians and vehicles. Impact on farming traffic Country roads are used by farmers to access their field. During construction works some of the country roads may be closed or totally excavated, stopping the farmers from accessing their field. This will have a significant impact on the agricultural production due to impossibility to sow seeds, spread fertilisers or harvest. Impact on fluvial traffic The sewer route passes trough 12 river courses, including 5 river courses which are used for navigation. Two types of methods are proposed to construct the pipe across water courses: Pipe jacking method for river course used for navigation and the cofferdam construction method for other river courses. Generally the construction will have no significant impact on fluvial traffic. Mitigations Comparison of sewer route planning options has been made by the Design Institute in order to determine the route for which the impact on the local traffic is the less significant. The selection of the sewer route should be based on minimising the impact on transportation, minimising the project investment and minimising the social impact. SOGREAH –CMY/HGX – 655055.R3.3 – DRAFT PAGE 45 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT – THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT – APL2 - DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WASTE WATER SECTOR REPORT Temporary access roads and bridges should be constructed when the construction involves path excavation or bridge demolition. The construction should be planned in order to reduce as much as possible the impact on road traffic, such as shortening the construction period and enabling access of vehicle to ensure the original function of the road. For busy roads, construction should be interrupted during rush hours and be optimised at night time. The piles of earth and construction material which are not used for re-fill should occupy as little space as possible and be moved away promptly. When the construction implies the coffer dam method, the construction agency should contact the municipal inland river navigation administration agencies before construction. During construction, information on construction works and direction of navigation should be signed posted on the river course and police should indicate signal lights to avoid traffic collision. 4.2.5.3. SOLID WASTES Demolition wastes The project construction will produce some building waste caused by the demolition of existing structure present along the pipe route. The estimated quantity of this waste is… Excavated spoil Construction waste consists mainly of excavated spoil produced during main sewer pipe construction, pumping station construction and pipeline branches connection construction. The quantity of excavated spoil is estimated to 164,000m3, including 155,500m3 for the installation of the main sewer pipe and 8,500m3 for the installation of the branches. The transportation and the handling of construction waste may have a significant impact on the environment. Excessive vehicle loads may spread soil everywhere, cover the road with soil and increase the quantity of dust in the air or mud on the ground. The presence of excavated soils may impact land utilisation, the river quality, ecology, nature and the appearance of the town. The transportation of excavated soil will affect local traffic and cause traffic jam. In order to minimise these impacts the following mitigations measured were proposed: • The excavated soil should be reused as much as possible as backfill during construction of planned new road. • Construction wastes should be managed accordingly to "Administration Regulation for Shanghai Construction Waste and engineering soil waste disposal” and any other related laws or regulations on wastes at municipal and district levels. Before construction approval should be obtained, the construction works should be efficiently controlled and at completion the site should be cleaned. • If during construction works hazardous wastes are encountered, the works should be stopped immediately and the construction agency should inform the local EPB and sanitary bureau promptly. Adequate measures should be taken before the work can continue. • The EPB and Sanitation Bureau should be informed prior to demolition of building which may contains hazardous substances. These departments will advice on protective measures to take before demolition. 4.2.5.4. PUBLIC UNDERGROUND SERVICES The sewer construction will have an impact on underground services such as telephone, communication and power cables, street lighting, water pipe, transformers and electric sub-station. Moreover, the pumping stations may be built on existing services which will need to be removed. Overall, the underground services may be damaged and interrupted during the construction phase which will cause major inconvenience in the neighbourhood.

Transformer substation 2 Shanghai power supply bureau Shanghai power supply bureau, power supply Transformer 15 bureaus of villages and towns The project management should with the Design Institute investigate the location of existing underground services and ensure that the sewer pipe route avoid these structures if possible. If the sewer main route cannot avoid underground services, the relevant department should be informed prior to the construction works and adequate measures should be undertaken to mitigate the impact. 4.2.5.5. OTHER IMPACTS ON CONSTRUCTION Collapsing of surrounding structures The sewer pipe route passes through railroad and river courses using the pipe jacking and open trench method. Experience of similar projects showed that the pipe jacking method or open trench methods can cause surrounding building to incline or even to collapse, pipe to burst and as a consequence put people’s life in danger. The ground project designer must ensure that he has a thorough knowledge of the soil and sub-soil conditions and that he carries out a detailed inspection of the area to minimise the impact. Cultural heritage According to a site inspection, there are no historical sites, famous old trees and national heritage structures along the main sewer route. If historical sites or archaeological sites are encountered during excavation, an archaeological specialist should be informed immediately and will advice on the importance of the discovery and whether or not the construction works can carry on. The construction workers must be informed by the contractor of the eventuality to encounter archaeological structures during construction works and of measures to take if it happens. If graves are encountered during excavation work, they should be relocated following the people customs and taking into account people sensibility. SOGREAH –CMY/HGX – 655055.R3.3 – DRAFT PAGE 47 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT – THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT – APL2 - DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WASTE WATER SECTOR REPORT Loss of green spaces The project will demolish 930m2 of green spaces including 173 trees due to excavation of the soil for the installation of the pipe. The trees will not be replaced on the main sewer pipe route, as their roots main destroy the sewer. Therefore, these trees will have to be transplanted somewhere else which may cause the death of trees and will degrade significantly the appearance of the existing landscape. The excavation of trees and of the lawn should be strictly controlled. The artificial vegetation impacted by the construction work should be replanted on both sides of the pipe, which may increase the local green areas. The natural vegetation on land or along the river course should recover its original conditions gradually over the years. 4.3. IMPACTS DURING OPERATION 4.3.1. IMPACT OF WASTE WATER Waste water generated by the operation of the pumping stations will consist in sanitary sewage from the station staff and water used for ground-washing. The quantity of waste water from ground- washing was estimated at 3-5m3/d. The waste water will be discharged into the pumping station directly through the sewage grid and therefore should have no environmental impact. There are four sources of waste water at the Bailonggang site: (a) The thickening and dewatering process of the sludge; (b) Filtrate and flotation from the digestion process (c) wash water and; (d) sanitary waste water from operation staff. According to calculation, the total amount of waste water produced during operation will be approximately 6,700m3/d (including 6,597m3/d from (a) and 4.5m3/d from (b)). As, the waste water will be re-circulated and treated in the WWTP, it is considered that impact from waste water is not significant. 4.3.2. IMPACT ON WATER ENVIRONMENT The project is generally beneficial to the surrounding water environment as it enables improvement of sewage collection and better sludge management. Improvement of sewage collection will reduce uncontrolled discharge of the waste water into river course. Installation of a new pipe may minimise the ingress of groundwater (which is thought to be currently happening) and as a result the sewage should be more concentrated. Therefore, the treatment of the waste water at the Shidongkou WWTP may experience change in efficiency and the quality of the discharge into the Yantze delta may change, affecting the overall quality of the surface water. The efficiency of the Shidongkou treatment plant and the discharge quality at the Yangzte delta should be monitored to mitigate potential impact on surface water. The water quality of the Huangpu River ranged between Class IV and class V and some parameters indicate a quality worse than Class V. The sludge which are currently produced by the Zhuyuan WWTP and Bailonggang WWTP are discharged into sludge lagoons. It is very likely that contaminants (such as metals and organic compounds) leach from the sludge to nearby surface waters and groundwater. Treatment of the sludge enables alternative disposal solutions and minimise the impact of long-term leaching on the local groundwater and water courses. SOGREAH –CMY/HGX – 655055.R3.3 – DRAFT PAGE 48 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT – THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT – APL2 - DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WASTE WATER SECTOR REPORT 4.3.3. IMPACT OF SOLID WASTE Solid waste produced by the operation of the pumping station will mainly consist in floating waste (paper, plastic, rags which contained 60 to 80% of water) which are trapped in the pumping station grid or staff domestic wastes. The overall quantity of solid wastes is 422kg. Solid waste will be piled up in the pumping station trash room after dehydration and will be collected by the Environmental Sanitation Bureau. The operation process of the BSMF produces solid wastes such as filters from digestion process, filters from methane purification process, by-products from sweetening process, solid waste from methane boiler, liquid waste from ozone processing and domestic waste. The quantity of solid waste from these processes is estimated at XXX. Solid wastes quantity produced from the process is low and may be disposed in Landfill site. 4.3.4. IMPACT ON NOISE For the WST component, the source of noise during operation will mainly come from the operation of the pumping stations (sewage pump located in the basement and ventilation fans located on both side of pumping stations). According to similar analysis, the noise level measured at 1m of each water pump is 72dB. Noise levels were assessed for each of the pumping stations (Xincun road, Zoumatang road, Wenzaobang road and Yueluo) and the maximum noise levels forecasted ranged from 28.2dB (A) to 36.8dB (A). All the predicted noise level were below the “Noise Standard for Boundaries of Factory”, class II. Therefore the operation of the pumping stations should not have a noise impact on the surrounding factories. However, air ventilation system may be required and this may increase the acoustic level to 65-70 dB (A). In this case, mitigation measures will be required. For the BSMF component, noise is mainly produced by mechanical devices used in the process such as pump, agitator and thickening engines. The noise levels were simulated at the southeast, northeast, northwest and southwest of the Bailonggang WWTP. The predicted noise level around the Bailonggang WWTP ranged from 38.3 to 56.8dB (A). The forecasted results indicate that at night, the noise level exceed the class II standard in two locations: (a) Northeast due to noise from sludge digestion tank and (b) northwest due to noise from sludge thickening engine. By cumulating the forecasted noise level with the existing noise level from the WWTP, the overall noise level increases slightly at day and night. Therefore, the noise level at night exceeds slightly the noise standard for class II. However, as the closest sensitive receptor is the village of Chaoyang located 1,500m away from the WWTP, it is considered that the noise impact on surrounding environment is low. Mitigations to reduce the noise level should include: • Selection of low noise level equipment. • Soundproffing measures for the high level noise equipment such as soundproofing of the outer wall, equipment half way buried in the ground, chose the isolated location . • Windows of the building should be double gazed and doors and roofs should be insolated. Foundation design measures should be taken to decrease vibration. • In addition, during operation, windows and doors of builsing should be shut in sensitive areas such as residential areas. • The site should be delineated by trees which should attenuate the noise and make the environment more pleasant. 4.3.5. IMPACT ON AIR Western Trunk Sewer SOGREAH –CMY/HGX – 655055.R3.3 – DRAFT PAGE 49 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT – THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT – APL2 - DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WASTE WATER SECTOR REPORT For the WTS component, the main odour pollutants originating from the pumping station are sulphur compounds (H2S, CH3SH) and ammonia (NH3). These gases are mainly observed in the pumping station grid area and in ventilation holes from the outlet pressure well. Public survey on impact of odour from similar pumping stations showed that the odour intensity varied over the day and that gas emission was more significant during the summer. For each of the pumping station, concentration of H2S was forecasted, minimum health protection distance was calculated and sensitive receptors were identified. TABLE 17: ESTIMATION OF GAS DISCHARGE AND SENSITIVE RECEPTORS Distance from Calculated Health Pumping station H2S Sensitive goal the pumping Protection distance Impact name (mg/h) station from grid Xincun road Ganquan park 1050 4~5 m 40 m Yes pumping station administration building Zoumatang pumping 744 Residential housing 40~50 m 33 m No station Wenzaobang 886 - - 37 m No pumping station Yueluo road Tangbeizhai (farmer 998 10 m 40 m Maybe pumping station house) The estimated health protected distance from the grid ranged from 33m (Zoumatang pumping station) to 40m (Xincun road pumping station). Sensitive receptors such as Ganquan park administrative building and Tangbeizhai farmer house are located within 40m radius of the pumping stations and therefore, odour from the Xincun pump and the Yueluo road pumping may have a significant impact on these surroundings buildings. The mitigations proposed to minimise the impact: • Locate new development at more than 40m away from the grid area • Use of efficient odour removal measures such as dry chemical adsorption equipment and natural material biofilter. • Strengthening the management of operation and maintenance of sewage pumping stations. • The pumping stations should be fenced by trees having odour adsorbing properties. • Pumping station should be constructed at least 5 meters away from residential areas. Bailonggang Sludge Management Facility For the BSMF component, the sludge treatment produces waste gas in sludge conditioning tanks, methane boiler and methane burning tower. SOGREAH –CMY/HGX – 655055.R3.3 – DRAFT PAGE 50 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT – THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT – APL2 - DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WASTE WATER SECTOR REPORT The gas assessment from the conditioning tank showed that if an efficient odor removal is utilized, the forecasted odor discharges are likely to comply with Urban WWTP pollutant discharge standard (industry and community standards). Therefore, it is considered that if the odour removal system achieves 90% of odor removal the impact from odor on the sensitive receptors will be low. During combustion of methane, traces of H2S release SO2. SO2 concentrations were forecasted taking into account variable wind conditions and several stability factors and variable distance from the source (20m and 180m). These results showed that the SO2 concentrations represented 0.6% of the Class II standard (Standard applicable in the Pudong area). Therefore the impact from SO2 on surrounding environment was considered negligible. The selection of an efficient air sweetener is critical for mitigating the impact on odor. The odours from the conditioning tank will be treated by a three phase odour removal tower using chemical scrubbing method. The Design Institute should carry out case study to assess the efficiency of the odour removal systems and define application scope of different removal methods. 4.3.6. IMPACT SPECIFIC TO THE WTS COMPONENT 4.3.6.1. SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENTAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE CITY Environmental development The Western Trunk Sewer has been built in the 1970s and is not able to support sewage collection from further future development (especially the economical development of the area of Boashan and the adjustment of the sewage system surface areas specified in sewage Master Plan). The construction and upgrading of the Western Trunk Sewer will enable to support the development of the regional economy and a sustainable environment development. It will improve the sewage treatment system of the north eastern area of Shanghai. Inhabitants safety The existing western sewer is a potential hazard for its surrounding occupiers due to its derelict state (risk of breakage and cracking of the pipe) and development of houses on the existing western trunk route. Through the reconstruction, the safety issues from leakage or overflow of the sewage should be solved. Sewage factory The current western sewer does not enable currently to provide a constant flow of waste water. The construction and upgrading of the western trunk sewer should provide a constant volume of sewage water to the Shidongkou Sewage factory. This should enable to maximise and improve the productivity of the Shidongkou sewage plant. 4.3.6.2. ENVIRONMENTAL RISK ASSESSMENT FOR ACCIDDENTAL POLLUTION During operation of the western trunk and the pumping stations, some accidental pollution may arise as described below. Accidents of pipeline cracks or breakage SOGREAH –CMY/HGX – 655055.R3.3 – DRAFT PAGE 51 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT – THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT – APL2 - DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WASTE WATER SECTOR REPORT The western trunk sewer route and the branches pipelines cross river courses and roads. Connection between main pipes and branches may break or crack which may lead to road collapsing. In order to minimise risk of road collapsing due to breakage or crack of the pipe, flexible connection for the pipe should be used, necessary investigation for foundations of pipeline should be carried out during construction and road foundations structure should be strengthened (to prevent risk from soft sand). Natural disasters accident Shanghai over the last several hundreds years have experienced earthquakes of a density inferior to level 6. Therefore, it is recommended that the project is designed withstanding earthquake of level 7. Protections measures should be considered for natural disasters such as typhoons, high tide, flooding and thunders: the design of the project should withstand level of typhoon number 12 and a 100 years flood. The upper structure of the pumping stations should withstand thunder. Noxious gases discharge The sewer pipeline and the pumping station operation management must include preventing explosion measures such as removal of wastes at the manholes and re-enforce ventilation and prevent accumulation of organic, toxic and hazardous gas gas. Accidental Power cut The operation of the WTS requires power as pipeline network is controlled and managed by a computer system. Accidental power cuts may cause failure to the computerised control system and cause sewage overflow and environmental impact. In order to prevent deregulation of the sewage flow from accidental power cut, it is suggested that two power supplies (including an emergency power supply) are present at the site. Morevoer, power supply should be reliable and constant to enable good operation of the pumping station. Accidental discharge to the storage tanks During storm, the capacity of the western trunk may be insufficient for draining storm water. If a storage tank is constructed will be used as primary settling tank (decreasing SS) and secondary emergency water storage tank which could be emptied into Wenzaobang river(decreasing the pollutant load of Wenzaobang river). The weight of the full settling tank may provoke sinking of the ground and rise insects density by increasing their reproduction. Foundation of the storage tank should be designed to prevent ground sinking and a chlorine purification system should be included in the construction design in order to decrease the patogens quantity and pollutants present in the water. Accidental risk from existing sewer As the existing sewer is in derelict condition, accidental risk such as collapsing of the sewer and aboveground structures may be a safety hazards for the population. An assessment of the risks associated with the existing sewer should be carried out and adequate measures should be taken to mitigate the risks. General mitigations The improvement of the awareness of safety of the employees by technical training and preparing some safety regulations will mitigate the risk of accidents. When servicing the manhole, the maintenance staff should wear Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), on-line monitoring for HS2 should be implemented and first aid training to ensure the safety of staff and normal operation.

IMPACT SPECIFIC TO BSMF COMPONENT The quantity of wet sludge produced by the WWTP is currently 6,933m3/d (208tDS/d), and is expected to increase to 7,233m3/d (217tDS/d) in the medium term and to 12,667m3/d (380tDS/d) in the long term due to the upgrading of the WWTP with implementation of a biological filtering basin and primary enhancement treatment method. According to the feasibility study, the quantity of sludge after treatment should be 166.4tDS/d, 151.9tDS/d and 266tDS/d respectively. The short term impact of sludge described below is based on the current results of the sludge characterization. However, it is understood that further sampling and analysis of the sludge are currently carried out to validate the characterization of the sludge. 4.3.7.1. SHORT TERM - IMPACT OF SLUDGE In the short-term, the treatment for the sludge includes anaerobic digestion the sludge and dewatering of 90% of the sludge to 70% of moisture content and drying of 10% of the sludge to a water content of 30%. Sludge has been characterized after treatment in the anaerobic digestion pilot plant. Total phosphate, potassium, total nitrogen and metals were analysed on the treated sludge. The results obtained are very variable but generally indicate that the treated sludge contains elevated concentrations of metals. The elevated concentrations of metal measured in the treated sludge originate from initial high concentrations of metal present in the untreated wet sludge and may be increased by pre-concentration factor due to reduction of the organic content from digestion process. Ten analysis of the sludge have been carried out before and after treatment from the 30th of October 2004 to the 8th of November 2004. The characterization of the untreated and treated sludge is summarised in the Table below.

The results of the pilot plant experiment showed that digestion achieved an organic matter removal rate ranging from 30 to 59%. The (Volatile Suspended Solid) VSS/ (Suspended ratio) SS ratio ranged from 45 to 54%. During December 2004 further analysis of sludge has been undertaken at Bailongang, this time using sludge from the actual WWTP which is now under operation. Two forms of analysis were undertaken: SOGREAH –CMY/HGX – 655055.R3.3 – DRAFT PAGE 53 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT – THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT – APL2 - DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WASTE WATER SECTOR REPORT • Leachate tests, to assess sludge toxicity; • Contaminant characteristics, notably heavy metals. Results of these analyses are provided in Appendix B together with similar results from the Shidongkou and Zhuyuan WWTP. Disposal option for sludge According to the current results, zinc and nickel concentrations of the sludge exceed GB-18918- 2002 standards and 90% of the sludge will have water content around 70%. Comparison of the sludge characteristics with the disposal requirement for land utilisation, showed that the sludge cannot be utilised on land unless it is dewatered and that the heavy metal concentration comply with GB-18918-2002 standards. TABLE 19 COMPARISON OF THE CURRENT SLUDGE CHARACTERISTICS WITH THE LAND UTILISATION STANDARDS Agriculture Land fill Dewatered Dry treated Parameters Landscaping Fertilisers cover treated Sludge Sludge Total Cd 20 3 20 - - Total Hg 15 2 15 5 5 Total Pb 1000 20 1000 99 99 Total Cr 1000 50 1000 785 785 Total As 75 10 75 11 11 Total Ni 200 - 200 248 248 Total Zn 3000 - 3000 5416 5416 Water content ≤30% ≤32.0% <60% 70% 30% The standards for agriculture use are based on Shanghai City Local Standard DB31/250-2000. As the water content of sludge is likely to be 70% and as the metal concentrations are above their respective standards, the sludge is recommended to be disposed in a sanitary landfill site. The sludge could either be disposed at: • Bailonggang sludge lagoons, if sufficient capacity. • Laogang landfill site providing that the waste will be mixed with other domestic wastes and meet the waste landfill requirements and that Laogang accepts this type of waste. Transportation to landfill Considering the landfill options, the main impact is from transportation of the sludge from Baillonggang to Laogang. The removal of the stabilised sludge off-site should be carried out promptly in order to ensure a normal operation of the facility and not to damage the surrounding environment. The transportation may be by road and by barge. A detailed transportation procedure should specify the daily amount to be transported, the route and the destination. In order to prevent sludge spreading on the road, the sludge transportation should be carried out in water tight containers. The sludge transportation route should avoid any major transportations routes and be carried out outside rush hours. Heavy metal concentrations SOGREAH –CMY/HGX – 655055.R3.3 – DRAFT PAGE 54 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT – THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT – APL2 - DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WASTE WATER SECTOR REPORT The metals concentrations of the sludge are elevated which doe not enable re-use of the sludge at land. In order to decrease the concentrations of metals in the sludge, a Prevention Pollution Control Plan should be implemented in order to determine the source of heavy metals of the waste water effluent and propose measures at the source to reduce release of these metals into the sewer network. Leaching tests Leachate tests could not be presently carried out on the treated sludge samples due to their high moisture content (97%). The leaching tests results must comply with landfill requirements in order to be disposed in domestic landfill site. It is recommended that the water content of the sludge is reduced before leaching tests. Moisture content The moisture content of the sludge will be reduced in the medium term as 100% of the sludge is proposed to be dried to 30% water content. 4.3.7.2. LONG TERM - IMPACT OF SLUDGE In the long term, it is assumed that all the sludge will be dried to a moisture content of 30% and that the characteristics of the sludge will comply with the GB-18918-2002 standards. In absence of data for the characterisation of the treated sludge (long-term), it is assumed that the sludge will have a composition rather similar to the sludge produced by other WWTPs in Shanghai.

For the Baillongang components, four options were put forward for land utilisation: use as landfill cover, landscaping use, use as soil conditioner and land reclamation. The main environmental impacts are impacts from transportation of the sludge to the disposal site and impact on the quality of the receiving site due to the application of sludge. Sludge transportation The removal of the stabilised sludge off-site should be carried out promptly in order to ensure a normal operation of the facility and not to damage the surrounding environment. The transportation may be by road or by barge depending on the location of the receiving site. A detailed transportation procedure should specify the daily amount to be transported, the route and the destination. SOGREAH –CMY/HGX – 655055.R3.3 – DRAFT PAGE 55 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT – THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT – APL2 - DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WASTE WATER SECTOR REPORT In order to prevent sludge spreading on the road or to reduce blowing-off material during transportation, the sludge transportation should be airtight (use of plastic cover). Moreover, high water content sludge (if present) should be transported in water tight containers. The sludge transportation route should avoid any major transportations routes and be carried out outside rush hours. Odour impact The digested sludge will be dried at the temperature of 85°C and its water content should drop to 30%. It is considered that the vapours released during that process will not emit significant odours. After digestion and drying, the digestable organic matter content should decrease and the sludge should be more easily transportable and may be used for land application. According to the similar studies, the odour concentrations from sludge treatment could meet the requirement for odour (less than 20) complying with class II factory boundary standards, with minimum impact on environment. Heavy metal impact In absence of consolidated data regarding the sludge characteristics, the sludge results from other WWTP located in Shanghai were used to assess the risk from heavy metals. The metal concentrations of this sludge comply with the GB-18918-2002 standards. Assuming that the sludge characteristics of the BSMF are similar to the sludge produced by other WWTP in Shanghai, the sludge is suitable for land application. Leachate results In absence of data, results of leaching test from similar studies (dealing with sludge produced by other WWTP located in the area of Shanghai) have been used and showed that there is low impact of leaching from the sludge on the environment.

However, monitoring of the receiving site including monitoring of the soil, water (drainage, surface and groundwater) will be necessary to assess that the quality of the site is not impacted. 4.3.7.3. TRANSPORTATION OF SLUDGE FROM ZHUYUAN WWTP TO BAILONGGANG WWTP Sludge is currently transported from the Zhuyuan WWTP to the Bailonggang WWTP by truck. The transportation time of the sludge is estimated to 5 years (estimated time capacity of the sludge disposal lagoons). The public consultation showed that the traffic from these trucks creates noise and dust impact to the residents of the Chaogang village. SOGREAH –CMY/HGX – 655055.R3.3 – DRAFT PAGE 56 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT – THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT – APL2 - DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WASTE WATER SECTOR REPORT Implementation of the Bailonggang Sludge Management Facility is a trial plant for the area of Shanghai. If the installation is successful other WWTPs should be equipped with similar sludge treatment plant. The impact of the implementation of the sludge management facility on the duration of the truck transportation is variable depending on the schedule of the operation: • If the Bailonggang sludge management facility is installed within 5 years, the sludge disposal lagoon capacity will increase and therefore the duration of transportation of the sludge from Zhuyuan to Bailonggang should increase. • If the Zhuyuan WWTP is equipped within the next 5 years with a sludge treatment plant, the duration of the transportation of the sludge from Zhuyuan plant to Bailonggang plant will be below 5 years. 4.3.7.4. ECONOMY AND SOCIAL IMPACT Economical impact Economic benefit comes from sludge application such as landfill cover, landscaping and fertiliser and according to the market survey. The price of the sludge landfill cover or landscape is 30-40 Yuan per tons. For this project if 35 yuan per tons for 166DSt/d: 2.13 millions yuans/y. Improvement of the environment will Increase domestics and international investment. According to the calculation, the sludge treatment could treat the sludge produced by the treatment of 1,200,000m3/d of waste water which could bring great economical benefit for national production. Social impact The implementation of the Bailonggang sludge management facility will have the following positive social impacts: • Improvement of the overall image of Shanghai – The implementaion of the Bailonggang sludge management facility should imporve Shanghai sewage treatment and should promote investment from local and international companies. • Improvement of the recognition of the society for environmental protection work carried out by the government – The implementation of this project should decrease pollution from sludge disposal process which shoould be seen as governmental environmental protection action for the society. • Promote the implementation of the sludge reduction produced by WWTP on a municipal level and at Bailonggang. • Protection the public health safety – The implementation of the sludge management facility should avoid secondary pollution to surface water and groundwater by using a adequate sluge disposal method and consequently improve the water quality for the residenta. 4.3.7.5. ENVIRONMENTAL RISK ASSESSMENT FOR ACCIDENTAL POLLUTION Methane is produced during digestion and should be re-used during the process. In the short term only 10% of the sludge will be dried and therefore there may be excess of methane. In the long term, all the sludge should be dried and the energy balance showed that all the methane should be re-utilised in the process. Explosion or fires may occur from presence of methane at the site. It is anticipated that the associated risks with methane will be higher in the short-term than in the long- term. Prevention of this risk should include training of the staff to the potential hazards, installation of an automatic explosion control system and strict management procedures.

ALTERNATIVES 5.1. WESTERN TRUNK SEWER During the EA process, several alternatives related to location and design of the western trunk sewer were examined. 5.1.1. WESTERN TRUNK SEWER ROUTES OPTIONS Three options were envisaged for the route of the western trunk sewer: • Utilisation of original pipe of the sewer trunk • Construction of a new pipe using a new route; • Partial use of existing pipe and partial construction of new pipe. Option 1: Utilization of Original Pipes This proposal utilizes the pipes along the whole line and mainly includes the following construction contents: 1. Pipes: the reinforced concrete inner tubes are added, original inspection shafts and escape holes are reinforced and repaired. 2. Structures of pump stations: the lower structures are utilized, but the reinforced concrete inner tubes shall be added; the upper buildings are reconstructed and the houses for living facilities are added appropriately. 3. Equipments in pump stations: the pumps and electrical equipments are replaced, the grids are newly built (except for Xincun Road Pump Station), and the deodorizing devices and control systems of the pump stations are added. For this proposal, in order to ensure normal operation of Shidongkou Sewage Plant during maintenance and reconstruction, the expenditure on temporary drainage facilities is higher; in addition, in order to ensure the pipes can work safely during construction and after repair, the existing buildings over pipes and in protected areas for pipes are considered according to dismantlement and permanent acquisition of land. Option 2: Construction of New Pipes (Under Planned Roads) As original West Trunk Line was not originally located under a planned road and was built on a land which as not been acquired by the sewage company, a large number of houses and factories were built around and over the pipes during regional development. As a consequence the pipe lacks access, repair and maintenance of the pipe are made difficult and safe operation of the pipe is impossible. According to current specification requirements, in order to ensure safe and reliable operation of West Trunk Line, all buildings within West Trunk Line and protected areas shall be dismantled which will imply a great amount of expenses and an important social impact. In consideration of these reasons, this option proposed to build the Western Trunk Sewer under existing roads and planned roads in the area. The pumping stations location and number would be designed to support the amount of sewage collected from branch lines for near term and long term. Two schemes were proposed for this second option: 1. Scheme of Fuchang Road Specific route: Xincun Road Pump Station - Xixiang Road -Pingli Road - Zhidan Road - West Guangzhong Road - Yuncheng Road - Gaoping Road - Wenshui Road - planned Kangning Road - planned Fuchang Road - Shitai Road - Yunchuan Road - Meishui Road - Shidongkou Sewage Plant.

Scheme of Yunchuan Road Specific route: Xincun Road Pump Station - Xixiang Road - Pingli Road - Zhidan Road - West Guangzhong Road - Yuncheng Road - Wenshui Road - planned Kangning Road - planned Fuchang Road - Bao’an Highway - Yunchuan Road - Meishui Road - Shidongkou Sewage Plant. Through consultation and coordination of multiple parties, the scheme of Fuchang Road for the newly laid pipes is regarded reasonable and feasible. Option 3: Partial Construction of New Pipes and Partial us of Original Pipes (Stepped Implementation) West Trunk Line is located between urban center and Outer Ring Road with a length of approx. 9.67km. The buildings within the scope of pipes are numerous and account for 70% of the total building area within the protected areas. Therefore, it appears very disruptive and difficult to re-use the existing pipe at this location as this would involve demolition of existing housing and buildings. It is therefore proposed to construct a new pipe for this section of the western sewer trunk. The overall length from the area to north of Outer Ring Road to Shidongkou WWTP is approximately 13.53km. As this section of the pipe is not heavily developed, the pipes of West Trunk Line may be utilized in short term and the pipes will then be newly laid for long term. The two sections of the Western trunk are described below: - South of Outer Ring Road: in combination with existing roads and planned roads in this area, lay new pipes, establish new Zouma Pond Pump Statoin and new Yunzao Brook Pump Station, reconstruct Xincun Road Pump Station, add deodorizing devices, replace pumps and electrical equipments, and provide control systems. - North of north of Outer Ring Road: reserve original West Trunk Line in near term, only repair the brick-up arch pipes, inspection shafts and escape holes, reconstruct Meipu Pump Station and Lianqi Pump Station (including replacement of pumps and electrical equipments), and add grid shafts, deodorizing devices and control systems. The pipes to north of Outer Ring Road will then be newly laid for long term, Meipu Pump Station and Lianqi Pump Station will be discarded, and Yueluo Road Pump Station will be newly established in the meantime. Comparison between Proposals –Environmental impacts The comparison between the proposals is summarised in the table below. The second option was selected as it is likely to be the less disruptive and the less expensive option.

ALTERNATIVES Use SPP1 Text from AM: In particular, the mission suggested to the Shanghai Water Authority (SWA) and their design institutes, that they determine if all or part of the wastewater flow from this trunk could go through the existing SSP1 system to the Zhuyuan plant, in which case the Shi Dong Kou wastewater treatment plant could instead be used effectively for flows from the Baoshan (which expects much increased population) and nearby areas in Jiading District. This option need to be analyzed and may present significant cost savings. Alternative to current design -Optimization of Scenario 2 The original scenario 2 (defined as Scenario 2A in this chapter, shallow buried scenario) is optimized to decrease the resettlement cost into Scenario 2B in which the pipes between Zoumatang and Wenzaobang will be deeply buried with pipe jacking method and consequently Zoumatang pumping station would not be implemented.

BAILONGGANG SLUDGE MANAGEMENT FACILITY During the EA process, several alternatives disposal options and treatment process or design were examined. 5.2.1. SLUDGE DISPOSAL OPTIONS Sea disposal Sea disposal consists in dumping sludge into the sea, which has been widely used in coastal countries like USA, Japan, UK, Irish and Spain. However, due to its great potential environmental impacts, it has been phased out in USA and European countries. This disposal method is forbidden in China. Incineration There are two types of incineration for sludge: • Direct incineration which consists in direct incineration of dewatered sludge (normally with the water content 75~80%). Generally additional fuel is required for this process due to the low energy value of the sludge associated with the high water content. • Drying incineration: The sludge is dried before incineration, which increase the energy value of sludge. Therefore additional fuel is not required for this process. Pollution from incineration processes (smoke, gas emissions (SO2, NOx, dioxins), wastewater, oven residue (hazardous wastes), flying ash, odour and noise) should be strictly controlled and managed to prevent the adverse environmental impacts. SOGREAH –CMY/HGX – 655055.R3.3 – DRAFT PAGE 62 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT – THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT – APL2 - DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WASTE WATER SECTOR REPORT Landfill disposal Landfill is the most common disposal option for sludge. Sludge can be disposed in special landfill designed for sludge or in domestic landfill: - Disposal in special sludge landfill disposal. The sludge must comply with the following characteristics: moisture content <60% and an organic matter content <50%. The landfill design should prevent any leaching of contaminant. - Disposal in domestic landfill. The sludge must be primarily mixed with domestic waste in order for its characteristics to comply with the specifications of domestic waste. Stabilisation and Land application Land application is the optimum disposal option for stabilized sludge, which includes landscaping, landfill soil cover, soil conditioner (neutralisation of alkaline soils), fertilisers, construction soil and land reclamation. Stabilisation and land application was selected for the Baillonggang project.

STABILISATION PROCESS OPTIONS There are three main types of stabilisation processes for sludge stabilisation including anaerobic digestion, aerobic digestion and composting. A comparative analysis of these options is presented in Table 26.

LAND UTILISATION OPTIONS AFTER STABILISATION The different options for land utilisation are described as follows: Landfill cover option Material used as landfill cover should comply with "Technical Standards of Sanitary Landfill Of Municipal Domestic Garbage, CJJ17-88" defines the sanitary landfill area of domestic garbage in Clause 4.0.4. As the Laogang landfill lacks of cover material, stabilised sludge could be used as landfill cover at the Laogang landfill site. The use of sludge as daily covering material has the following environmental benefits: • Reduction of harmful organisms • Preventing the rubbish from blowing off and improving the view of landfill • Reduction of odour • Preventing from accidental fires Landscaping option As per "Public Green Area Planning of City Center in Shanghai" and "Municipal Forest Planning in Shanghai", it is estimated that the whole city is able to absorb 117 million m3 planting soil resource from 2005 to 2020, and the planned sewage and sludge amount of the whole city in 2020 will be only 2.68 million m3 per year(calculated upon moisture percentage of 80%). The Greening Bureau of Shanghai has not yet designed a receiving site for landscape application.

The quality of the stabilised sludge (contaminants, nutrients, water content) should be clearly established and be suitable for land application. Water, soil and odour at the receiving site should be monitored to assess the quality at the site. Land application of sludge has the following environmental benefit: • Sludge is rich in many chemical constituents that are beneficial to the soil quality and plants growth. • Soil and plants enable the assimilation and stabilization of some pollutants present in sludge. • The minerals composition of sludge is similar to the mineral composition of soil. • Sludge through certain treatment has soil mechanic properties close to soil • Promote the development of green areas in Shanghai. Agricultural use The alkaline land throughout Shanghai City is approximately 60 thousand mu, and it is relatively effective to use sewage and sludge as soil conditioner. If it is allowed to employ them to the maximum load as per agricultural use standard of sludge (GB4284-84), that is, the amount used in each mu per year will not exceed 2,000kg dry sludge (the continuous application in the same plot of soil should never exceed 20 years), the 600 thousand mu alkaline lands of the whole city can absorb 24 million m3 sludge in twenty years, equivalent to 9 times of the sewage and sludge amount in 2020. Land Reclamation As per Shanghai shallows program, the marginal bank coverage of continental areas during the fifth Five-Year Program and the eleventh Five-Year Program is listed in Table 28 . TABLE 28: FENCED AREA OF MARGINAL BANK Nanhui Marginal Bank Hangzhouwan Northern Margin Unit:10,000 mou m2 Unit:10,000 mou m2 The tenth Five-Year 16 1.07×108 1.05 7×106 Program The eleventh Five-Year 0 0 1.0 6.7×106 Program Sludge use as land reclamation is under the strong influence of tides and water bodies. Therefore the risk for leaching of potential contaminants present in the sludge into the water may be significant. However, the dilution capacity of the receiving water body will significantly reduce this risk.

ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN 6.1. OBJECTIVES OF EMP The role of the EMP is to outline the mitigation, monitoring and institutional measures to be considered during project implementation and operation to avoid or control adverse environmental impacts, and the actions deemed necessary to implement these measures. The EMP provides the crucial link between impacts and alternative mitigation measures evaluated and described in the EA reports and the way these measures are implemented to achieve their mitigation objectives. For each proposed measure, the EMP defines the technical content, the estimated cost, the schedule of implementation, the role and responsibilities of Government Agencies, the source of funding and the way to monitor the results. 6.2. CONTRACTUAL DISPOSITIONS To secure an efficient implementation of the environmental and social mitigation measures, these measures must be presented in the main contractual documentation which includes 1) The Memorandum of Contract Negotiation and 2) the Technical Specifications, through a clear reference to the EA and EMP and should be detailed in the Technical Specifications. Thus, the preparation of detailed environmental and social specifications for the Contractor will be a first mitigation measure proposed prior to the bidding process, with the objective to have eventually a contractual document which establishes clearly the obligations of the contractor, the quantities of work involved and the related cost of measures. 6.2.1. OBLIGATIONS OF THE CONTRACTOR It is proposed to develop detailed environmental and social specifications for the Contractor, which can be in the future easily adapted to the specific context of each considered project. These specifications will be organized into 4 sections: • Section A : Environmental Protection Management • Section B : Labor Camps and Occupational Health Management • Section C : Safety Management • Section D : Social Management Each section will address 2 aspects: 1) Sub-Section 1 : description of the Contractor's obligations with regards to those aspects covered by the section; and 2) Sub-Section 2: description of performance indicators that will be monitored for deciding payment of the services. Section A will specify the Contractor obligations regarding the preparation of a Construction Site Environmental Management Program (CSEMP) aiming at protecting the work sites and their surroundings against potentially adverse impacts. The Contractor's CSEMP will include the facilities and procedures for the management of camps and construction wastes, the soil conservation measures and proposed rehabilitation works once the construction ends, the measures aiming at protecting cultural and ecological assets if any, the preventive measures against water pollution and the monitoring program (air, water). Section B will address the minimum standards to be implemented in the labour camps and facilities regarding issues as workers accommodation, food supply and canteen, waste management, water supply, treatment of sewage and sanitary conditions on site. SOGREAH –CMY/HGX – 655055.R3.3 – DRAFT PAGE 67 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT – THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT – APL2 - DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WASTE WATER SECTOR REPORT Section C will address safety issues, and the related Environmental Specifications will cover two distinct aspects, i) On-site Safety, Personal Protection Equipment (PPE), and Medical issues, and ii) Off site Safety issues. On-site Safety, PPE, and medical aspects address all the measures the Contractor needs to implement to ensure a safety standard equivalent to international practice, and to provide appropriate medical emergency procedures for the workforce. Off-site Safety concerns all issues to be dealt with outside construction sites proper. It covers traffic hazards resulting from the transport of equipment to or from the construction sites, and focuses mainly on the trunk sewer component which will involve construction activities along about 1000km in populated and high traffic density areas. For Off-site issues, the Environmental Specifications will define objectives. The Contractor will detail in its proposal the plan he intends to implement to achieve these objectives. Section D will define the framework conditions for the Contractor to manage social issues related to construction activities. Most of these conditions will focus on how to reduce nuisance to residents, mainly anticipated from noise, from the temporary road closures and the cut-off of electricity, gas, water or telephone services when laying the trunk sewer network. The contractors will be requested to prepare a Nuisance Control Plan (NCP) which will be discussed with Project authorities and other Municipal Agencies concerned and with affected residents during information and consultation meetings. Issues to be discussed will focus on the procedures to be applied by the contractor prior to close a road or to cut-off water, gas or any other service, and on the general nuisance as access to buildings and shops, noise and air pollution. 6.3. ORGANIZATION FOR EMP IMPLEMENTATION The SHUEP implementation will be managed by a Project Management Office (PMO) under the Shanghai Municipal Government. Under this PMO, four Project Implementation Units (PIU) will be created within each project owner, one for the waste water component, two for the water supply component and one for the solid waste component. The PMO will be assisted by an independent Construction Supervision Engineer (CSE) during the construction stage of the facilities. It is proposed to strengthen environmental and social management during the implementation of the EMP at both PMO and CSE levels. To ensure that applicable national, provincial and municipal environmental laws, regulations and standards, as well as WB environmental and social requirements are respected during Project preparation and implementation, an Environmental and Social Division (ESD) will be established within the PMO. During construction stage, the ESD will have the responsibility to coordinate monitoring activities with the contractors and concerned government agencies, to ensure the effective implementation of the mitigation measures decided in the EMP. The ESD will be composed of 2 specialists, one Head of the Department (Environmental Specialist) and one Resettlement Coordinator. These two specialists will be assisted by a full time secretary. It is assumed that accountancy needs of the ESD will be satisfied on a part time basis by the accountancy staff of the PMO. At field level, the ESD will rely on the Construction Supervision Engineer, through an Environmental and Social Unit (ESU) including a Construction Supervision Environmental Adviser (CSEA) assisted by Environmental and Social Field Inspectors (ESFI). It is proposed to appoint 1 ESFI to each component (waste water, water and solid waste). The proposed general organization for Environmental and Social management of the project is presented in the following Figure.

ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PROCEDURES The management of the environmental and social monitoring effort will involve open communications between the field personnel of the CSE, the ESD and the PMO. An important element of the communication process will be the organized transfer of information concerning situations that do not comply with the project environmental requirements, specifications, goals or objectives. These situations are identified on site by the CSEA and his ESFI staff, and then reported when appropriate at higher level for decision. To help focus senior management attention on the most important issues, non-compliance observations will be separated into 3 levels on the basis of importance, and communications requirements for the observations will be commensurate with the severity of the non-compliance situation. The proposed non-compliance detection, reporting and resolution flow-chart is presented in the following Figure.

ACTIVITIES REQUIRED FOR ORGANIZATION Activities to be carried out for the organization, training and management of environmental and social issues are presented in detail in the EMP. 6.4. MONITORING 6.4.1. MONITORING OF CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES The environmental monitoring of construction activities is at the centre of the effective implementation of the EMP: The objective is to carry out a regular and comprehensive review of the actual implementation status of the environmental obligations of the Contractor. This monitoring aims at ensuring compliance of Contractor activities with its contractual commitments as well as with the environmental regulations and standards prevailing in PRC. Monitoring is carried out throughout the project construction stage by the CSEA, assisted in his task by Environmental and Social Field Inspectors (ESFI). ESFIs monitor field activities on a daily basis while CSEA will make a monthly routine visit to each construction site, keeping aside exceptional visits resulting from the observation of a non-compliance. The ESU will monitor all aspects relevant to the 4 sections of the Environmental Specifications. For each section, a Standard Site Review Sheet (SRS) will be prepared at the beginning of the project, by the ESD and the Technical Assistance. The SRS system will allow, on a monthly basis, a rapid review of the environmental progress on the construction sites, a tool for ranking the quality level observed and a formal way to check if requirements expressed to the Contractor the previous month have been given due attention and are satisfactory. Based on this review by the ESU, the ESD will give or not its approval for payments of the concerned components for the given period. 6.4.2. WATER QUALITY MONITORING Objectives of water quality monitoring are: • To ensure a strict control of pollution from construction activities and to check the efficiency of water quality protection measures set up by the civil work contractor; • To ensure that construction activities do not alter significantly the river or reservoir or aquifer water quality; • To ensure that the treatment facilities function correctly during the operation period. To satisfy these objectives, two distinct monitoring will be organized, one focusing on construction sites and on the release of pollutants, the other on the condition of the receiving water bodies. The first monitoring system is called a Compliance Monitoring, which will compare discharges from the construction site with existing standards in PRC. Routine monitoring will be performed by the Contractor according to determined sampling sites, procedures and laboratory. Random control of results will be done by the EPB. The second monitoring type is called an Effect Monitoring, as it tries to link specific human activities to any changes in the environmental characteristics of the receiving water body. This monitoring will be carried out by the EPB supported Water Quality Monitoring Component together with their standard ambient river water quality monitoring program. During operation period of the Waste Water components, the new western trunk may affect the functioning of the Shidongkou WWTP and therefore impact the quality of the WWTP water discharge. Therefore monitoring of the Shidongkou outfall and of Yangzte River downstream from the Shidongkou outfall should be carried out. It was understood that this was proposed as part of the Shidongkou WWTP EA, but it appears that no specific monitoring point on the Yangtze has yet been implemented.

AIR QUALITY AND NOISE MONITORING Monitoring of air quality and noise will be maintained throughout construction and operation stages of the project. The purpose of monitoring is to ensure that air pollution, dust and noise standards are respected on the construction sites and that these nuisances are kept to a minimum acceptable level for the surrounding residents. Noise will be monitored by EPB. Noise levels will be monitored over 24 hrs duration inside the construction sites and nearly, following national standard GB16297 for measurement methods. Monitoring will be operated on a random basis, without informing the contractor. Special attention will be provided to noise levels during night-time and to noise levels around residential areas. During the operation phase, the noisiest sources will be monitored.

SLUDGE MONITORING Sludge monitoring will be performed at the Bailonggang sludge management facility during the operation phase. The purpose of the monitoring is to control the sludge management facility and WWTP processes, ensure that the sludge characteristics comply with the national standards (GB- 18918-2002) and to provide characteristics of the sludge to control its disposal route. The sludge monitoring parameters should include parameters included in the GB-18918-2002 standards and required for the land utilization selection. The sludge monitoring should be carried out before and after treatment. In absence of guidance on sludge monitoring frequency in the “Control standards for pollutants in sludge for agricultural application (GB4284-84-1984-05-18)”, “Discharge standard of pollutants for municipal waste water treatment plant (GB-18918-2002, 2003-07-01)” and “Quality Standards of soil for landscape and garden (DBJ03-231-98)”, the frequency of sampling for treated sludge is based on industry good practice. It is suggested to monitor the treated sludge once a month for agronomic parameters, heavy metals and microorganisms, once every two months for organic compounds and once a year for dioxins. The untreated sludge should be sampled at least at the same frequency in order to assess the efficiency of the sludge management plant. 6.4.5. MONITORING OF THE RECEIVING SITE The sludge in the long term is proposed to be applied on land after stabilization. If land utilization consists in agricultural use, conditioning and landscaping, the receiving site should be monitored in order to assess the quality of the site and control the potential impact of sludge application. Based on current good practice of agricultural land utilization (Working Document on sludge, 3rd draft, Brussels 2000), the soil of the receiving site has to be analysed before the first use of sludge and every ten years thereafter. The parameters should include pH, soil texture, heavy metals, nitrogen and phosphorous. The representative soil sample for analysis should be a composite sample of 25 samples collected within a maximum of 5ha. The depth of the sample should be 0.25m. If elevated contaminant concentrations are encountered in the soils, further testing as leaching tests, groundwater analysis, surface/drainage water analysis should be undertaken. 6.5. COST ESTIMATE FOR EMP The implementation of the EMP measures relies on the intervention of several parties involving funding from different budget lines or sources. Most of the activities involve routine measurements, field sampling or testing are to be provided by the contractor, and will be included in his tendered cost. These costs will be presented in his tender in accordance with the requirements and specifications of the bidding documentation. However, the rather limited budgets involved in environmental activities are probably not sufficient to raise a strong interest from the Contractor. Until environmental protection practices become a fully integrated part of construction contracts, penalties are the most efficient way to expedite the process. For that reason, it is considered to establish a contractor obligations budget to a fixed percentage of the construction costs, say 4%. This amount will be split into 2% direct fees to be paid to the contractor in accordance with the progress of the work, and 2% as a retainer, to be paid in accordance with the actual goodwill demonstrated by the Contractor in the implementation of environmental and social measures and for efficient and quick correction of non-compliance.

BAILONGGANG SLUDGE MANAGEMENT FACILITY The first public consultation was sent in November 2004, by sending questionnaire to the residents of Chaoyang village. The results of the survey indicated the following: - Existing situation: 80% of the people surveyed are satisfied with the air quality of the area, 72% are satisfied with the existing noise level, 64% of the people are not satisfied with the existing water quality. Therefore, the water pollution is considered as the major existing environmental problem of Bailonggang for 52% of the people surveyed, 20% concerned more about the noise pollution and 22% concerned more about the environmental sanitary problem. - Construction phase: The residents of Chaoyang located 1,500m away are mainly concerned about the dust and the noise impact created by the construction traffic. However, 76% have not express strong concerns as these impacts will be temporary. - Operation phase: 72% of the surveyed population think that the main impact of the operation of the sludge management facility will be the generation of fetid odours. However, 58% of the people believed that the implementation of the sludge management plant should reduce the impact from fetid odour which is currently produced by the WWTP site. 56% expressed their concern about the noise impact and 46% about the odour. People suggested that traffic management should be strengthened in order to mitigate the impact of the construction. Moreover, environmental specialists expressed their concerns regarding the final use of the treated sludge.

GENERAL In order to characterize sludge from the three large-scale municipal WWTPs in Shanghai; Shidongkou, Zhuyuan and Bailonggang, the sludge measurement work was undertaken by Shanghai Environmental Monitoring Centre with the commission of Shanghai Municipal Sewage Company (SMSC). Sludge from these three th th WWTPs was respectively sampled from Dec. 20 to 24 , 2004 and from Dec. 27th to 29th, 2004. And the leaching test, heavy metals measurement and bacteria measurement for all the samples was finished on Jan. 13th, 2005, as the official reports (No.WT2004-508-1 and No.WT2004-508-2) indicate. 2.

HEAVY METALS According to the heavy metals measurement, the results are shown in the following tables. Presently there are two national standards applicable for the agricultural application of sludge in China, one is “Control standards for pollutants in sludge for agricultural use” (GB4284-84), and the other is “Discharge standard of pollutants for municipal wastewater treatment plant” (GB18918-2002). However, the earlier standard (GB4284-84) is even more stringent as shown. And since the soil in Shanghai is slightly alkaline, the requirements for alkaline soil are followed here. 3.2.1.

COMPARISON AMONG THREE WWTPS TABLE 3-7: COMPARISON OF HEAVY METAL CONTENTS IN DIGESTED SLUDGE OF THREE WWTPS Bailonggang Shidongkou Zhuyuan Bailonggang Pilot Study (Oct.30-Nov.8) Hg 4.62 3.54 3.92 4.33 Cd 0.40 0.17 0.16 6.48 As 11.7 43.4 27.1 10.60 Pb 256.0 203.6 142.3 98.5 Cr 2881 288 726 775 Ni 163 81 126 244 Cu 1034 453 489 1801 Zn 2557 1385 1955 5553 From the above comparison, it is found that the wastewater from Shidongkou WWTP is more industrial compared with the other two plants, whose sludge is sent for incineration. However, compared with the measurement results for sludge from the pilot study in Bailonggang (Although its characteristics are different from the actual produced digested sludge), it is noticeable that the Zn and Cr contents in sludge from Bailonggang WWTP are also relatively high. 3.3. BIOLOGIC PARAMETER As for biologic parameter, only the group number of fecal coliform is measured for all the samples, which is summarised in the following table: TABLE 3-8: GROUP NUMBER OF FECAL COLIFORM IN SLUDGE SAMPLES 6 USEPA Part 503, Dewatered sludge(*10 /gDS) Biosolids Rule 12/20 12/21 12/22 12/23 12/24 12/27 12/28 12/29 Class A Class B WWTP Average /2004 /2004 /2004 /2004 /2004 /2004 /2004 /2004 Sludge Sludge Shidongkou 0.014 0.008 0.002 0.094 0.063 0.13 0.24 0.25 0.100 Bailonggang 1.1 1.4 0.94 1.1 1 0.7 1.7 0.14 1.01 0.001 2 Zhuyuan 22 17 7.9 24 54 0.63 0.94 0.34 15.85 Since there is no national standard related to the amount of faecal coliform in sludge available, the standard of USEPA, Part 503 Biosolids Rule, is used here for comparison. Obviously the coliform concentration is higher in sludge from Zhuyuan WWTP, which might result from the fluctuation during Dec. 20th to 24th. 4. CONCLUSIONS To sum up, according to the measurement results, the sludge from Shidongkou, Bailonggang and Zhuyuan is non-hazardous in terms of Chinese national standard. And according to the existing national standard for the agricultural application of sludge, it is feasible for the land application. However, it is noticeable the Zn and Cr contents in sludge from Bailonggang WWTP is relatively higher than that of others; While the pathogen concentration in Zhuyuan WWTP should be closely observed.
