This Environment Management Plan (EMP) was prepared for the Liaoning Safe and Sustainable Water Supply Project (the Project) in Liaoning Province, the People’s Republic of China (PRC). The EMP has been prepared in accordance with requirements of the World Bank Safeguard Policy on the basis of (i) the five domestic environmental assessment (EA) reports provided by the local EA Institutes (The environmental impact Assessment report form of Fushun and Gaizhou projects have been reformulated in 2021 due to the restructuring of project contents) , (ii) the five project Feasibility Study Reports (FSRs) (The FSRs of Fushun and Gaizhou projects have been reprepared in 2021 due to the restructuring of project contents), (iii) the social and economic assessments conducted under the Project Preparatory (updated in 2021), and (iv) discussions between the World Bank missions, Liaoning Urban Construction & Renewal Project Office (LUCRPO), Liaoning Provincial Development and Reform Commission (LDRC), Liaoning Provincial Finance Department (LFD), as well as the five project cities’ governments and five water supply companies in the cities of Shenyang, Anshan, Fushun, Fuxin and Gaizhou. Due to the withdrawal of Shenyang and Fuxin subprojects, Anshan subproject has no change, and the contents of Fushun and Gaizhou subprojects have changed during the mid- term restructuring, the environmental management plan has also been updated according to the updated project content. 2. According to environmental screening and classification requires in World Bank Safeguard Policy Environment Assessment (OP4.01), during the project evaluation phase the proposed project is classified to Class B project based on the type, location, sensitivities, scales, and potential environmental impacts of the project. In the mid-term restructuring, the Shenyang and Fuxin sub-projects were cancelled, the municipal water distribution network, residential water distribution network and pump stations of Fushun subproject were reduced compared with the original project content, and the added old WSPs renovation are also carried out in the existing plants. In addition to reducing the length of water main pipe and increasing the number of pumping stations in Gaizhou, the biggest change in Gaizhou subproject is to change the water source from Shimen Reservoir to Yushi Reservoir. Based on the FSR and the dam safety engineer's evaluation report, the dam is deemed safe and this is the best option. In addition, the adjusted project content does not involve any cultural relics, historic sites, nature reserves and other environmentally sensitive areas. After screening and classification, the project is still a Class B project after mid-term restructuring. 3. The proposed Project Development Objectives (PDOs) are to improve access to safe and quality water supply services, and strengthen the operational efficiency of water supply companies in the five project cities in Liaoning Province. This objective will be achieved through investment in the construction, rehabilitation and upgrading of the water supply infrastructure facilities and the improvement of the water supply companies’ operational and management capacity.

Reservoir Dams 6. The water source of Gaizhou subproject is to change from Shimen Reservoir to Yushi Reservoir. The Yushi reservoir is located in the upper reaches of the Biliu River which is totally within Liaoning Province and not an international river, and is a RCC dam. It was built in 1999 and put into operation in 2002. It has been operating safely for 18 years. In 2006, it passed the acceptance of reservoir put into use by Water Resources Department of Liaoning Province. In 2018, the dam passed the safety assessment and appraisal of the Water Resources Department, and the appraisal result was class II dam (the reason is that there are local micro-cracks on the downstream surface of the dam body). After the construction of the reservoir, it was managed by Yingkou Water Conservancy Bureau in the early stage. After the asset restructuring in 2005, it was controlled by Angang Steel Group and now it is managed by Angang Water Group. At present, the reservoir management office has 22 employees responsible for the daily management of the dam project. Flood control in flood season shall be dispatched under the leadership of Yingkou City flood control and emergency headquarters. 7. The catchment area of the reservoir basin is 313 km2, the reservoir length is 8 km, and the storage capacity is 88.52 million m3. The design flood standard of the reservoir is once in 50 years, and the check flood standard is once in 500 years. The hub project consists of dam, spillway and water tunnel. 8. The dam is 262.5 m long, 50.2 m high, 6 m wide at the top and 40 m wide at the bottom. The crest elevation is 203.2 m, and the highest flood level is 202.2 m (occurring in the flood season of 2020). The spillway is controlled by 5-hole arc steel gate, and the structural dimension of each hole is 10*6.3 m in width * height. The maximum discharge is 1680M3/s. 9. The water delivery tunnel is composed of three layers, which are located at the heights of 173m,183m and 190m respectively. It is responsible for the water supply of Bayuquan branch and Bayuquan urban area of Anshan Iron and Steel Group. The current water supply is 100,000 tons per day. The other is to provide domestic water for the downstream residents along the river and ecological water for the downstream river. 10. Downstream of the reservoir, there are three villages, namely Shangtun, Sijiazi and Bajiazi, with a population of about 4,500 people.

Dam safety experts conducted a safety assessment of the Yushi Reservoir dam in July 2021 and prepared a dam safety assessment report. The conclusion is: (i) Yushi Reservoir has a sound management organization and management system, good implementation of rules and regulations, clear responsibilities of managers, facilities can basically meet the requirements of normal operation of the reservoir, flood control plan and management system can basically meet the requirements of the code, the reservoir dispatching rules and emergency plan are formulated reasonably, and the maintenance of hydraulic structures is basically in place. The observation data of rain and clear, water level and seepage of dam can be analyzed regularly every year. According to the "Reservoir Dam Safety Evaluation Guidelines" (SL258-2017), the comprehensive evaluation of dam operation management is "relatively standard"; (ii) According to the preliminary design report of Yushi Reservoir, the dam top elevation was reviewed, and the dam top elevation met the standard requirements, and the flood control safety of Yushi Reservoir dam project was rated as "A" according to the Guidelines for Dam Safety Evaluation of Reservoirs (SL258-2017); (iii) There are no geological problems related to foundation deformation and leakage in the operation of the dam. All monitoring data in 2020 are normal and close to the initial monitoring data. According to The Guidelines for Reservoir Dam Safety Evaluation (SL258-2017), the anti-seepage safety level of the project is evaluated as "A"; (iv) According to the findings of on-site safety inspection by dam experts (see "On-site Safety Inspection and Discovery"), the safety level of the project structure is evaluated as "B" according to "Guidelines for Reservoir Dam Safety Evaluation" (SL258-2017); (v) According to the findings of the on-site safety inspection by the dam experts (see "On-site Safety Inspection"), the safety level of the metal structure of the project is evaluated as "B" in accordance with the Guidelines for The Safety Evaluation of Reservoirs and DAMS (SL258-2017); (vi) According to the Ground Motion Parameter Zoning Map of China (GB18306-2015), the peak acceleration of the earthquake in this area is 0.1g, and the characteristic period of the response spectrum is 0.4s. The seismic intensity of the dam site is 7 degrees. The seismic safety factor is greater than the value specified in the code and meets the requirements of seismic stability. The comprehensive evaluation of seismic safety grade of dam is grade A. b. Fushun’s WSPs 12. The water supply company: Fushun Water Supply Company was established in 1908, which now is a large state-owned enterprise for public utility service. By the end of 2015, the company has 1,543 staff, with the total assets of 1.68 billion RMB, and the total tap water supply service area of 95 km2, and service population of 1.267 million. The Company has five branches of Dongzhou, Fengze, Hetai, Henan and Hebei. In September 2017, Fushun Water Supply (Group) Co., Ltd. was established after completing the corporate system reform. 13. Water source: The raw surface water of city is all from the Dahuofang Reservoir and transmitted by gravity through open channels and pipeline to the eight (8) WSPs of Wujiabao, Dongzhou, etc. 14. Fushun City includes four water supply zones of Eastern, Central, Wanghua and the Economic Development Area. There are two WSPs of Wujiabao and Dongzhou in the eastern zone; three WSPs of Hebei, Jiangjun and Donggongyuan in the central zone, two WSPs of Ditai and Haicheng in Wanghua zone, and two WSPs of Heping and Lagugong in the Economic Development Zone. All the WSPs with their own separate distribution networks. 15. Fushun's new mid-term restructuring project includes upgrading the process equipment of seven existing WSPs, including Wujiapu, Hebei, Park, Jiangjun, Haicheng, Heping and Ditai WSP, replacing and upgrading the old valves and pump equipment in these plants. The dosing and disinfection process of Wujiapu, Hebei, Park, Jiangjun, Haicheng and Heping waterworks will be completely reformed, replacing chlorine disinfection with sodium hypochlorite disinfection. Among them, Hebei WSP renovation project has been put out to tender in 2021, the rest of the WSPs renovation will be implemented in 2022. See Table II-3. 16. According to the investigation, the WSPs that need to be renovated in Fushun were built earlier, without environmental impact assessment and environmental acceptance, and the sludge was discharged into the municipal pipe network. 17. The water quality. The current raw water quality from Dahuofang Reservoir meets the Grade II of Surface Water Quality Standards (GB3838-2002). The average annual turbidity of raw water is 5NTU. The seasonal raw water quality mainly is low-temperature, ultra-stable water, high temperature with algae, and higher turbidity in flood season. 18. The treated water qualities from the WSPs meet the national Drinking Water Quality Standard (GB5749-2006). The average turbidity in pipe network is 1NTU, except during the flood seasons and other special periods. The water quality in new pipe network also meets the standard, but for some aged pipes, the water quality in network terminal does not meet the standards. After running the secondary water supply facilities, the water quality parameters in some residential communities, such as turbidity, color, iron all increased in comparison with those in the WSPs. 19. The water distribution pipe network. The total length of Fushun water supply pipe network is 2,411.29 km. The pipe types mainly include PE, gray cast iron, steel, PVC, and concrete pipes. The pipes constructed after 2013 are mainly DIP and PE pipes. In recent years, Fushun Water Supply Company replaced some aged pipes, but there are still a large number of pipes running over 30 years (accounts for 16.77%). The proportion of aged gray cast iron pipe, concrete pipe, and galvanized steel pipes together account for 50.64% of the total, the proportion of early PVC pipe accounts for 10.07%, which is the main reason for the water quality compliance rate lower than that in the WSPs, the low water quality compliance rate, high leakage and sometime pipe burst are the main problems for water supply safety. In addition, the coal- mining subsidence area in Fushun is 18.41 km2, with sometimes mine earthquakes, caused the pipe leakage as high as 37.8% 20. The secondary booster pumping stations. There are 242 secondary boosting pump stations in Fushun, of which 90% are aged, resulting high energy consumption and frequent leakage accidents. The water tanks in nine stations are still being used, which easily cause secondary pollution. 197 stations have no monitoring, no fire alert, no data transmission, etc. 21. Water Quality Monitoring capacity. The national Drinking Water Quality Standards (GB5749-2006) was mandatorily implemented nationwide on July 1, 2012. The standard increases the drinking water quality parameters from 64 to 106. The current water quality monitoring capacity of the monitoring center under Fushun Water Supply Company is 76 parameters only; another 30 parameters cannot be monitored due to lack of instruments. The WSPs can only on-line detect turbidity and residual chlorine, for the secondary water supply, the on-line monitoring device is only installed in Qiandian booster pumping station for pipeline water quality monitoring. The monitoring capacity of the Water Supply Company needs to be much improved.

III-3 Applicable Environmental Standards 28. The environmental quality standard system that supports/evaluates the implementation of the environmental protection laws and regulations in the PRC is classified into two categories by function, i.e. pollutant emission/discharge standards and ambient environmental standards. The standards applicable to this project are in Table III-4, and the specific applicable standards for ambient air, water wastewater and noise are listed below. Table III-4 Applicable environmental standards Standard Code Urban Ambient Acoustic Quality Standard GB3096-2008 Noise Limit of Industrial Enterprises GB12348-2008 Noise Limit for Social Activities GB22337-2008 Drinking Water Quality Standard GB5749-2006 Surface Water Quality Standard GB3838-2002 Standard on Pollutant Discharges from Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plants GB18018-2002 Ambient Air Quality Standard GB3095-1996 Integrated Emission Standard of Air Pollutants GB16297-1996 Comprehensive sewage discharge standard of Liaoning Province DB21/1627-2008 Integrated Wastewater Discharge Standard GB8978-1996 Noise Limit for Construction Sites GB12523-2011 Control Standards for Pollutants in Sludge for Agricultural Use GB4284-1984 World Bank General guidelines on Environment, Health and Safety The WHO guidelines for environmental air quality recommended by the EHS Guidelines Community noise guidelines (WHO, 1999) recommended by the EHS Guidelines a. Wastewater Discharge Standard during Construction Period 29. According to the implementation features of the Project, wastewater generated during construction is domestic wastewater in construction site. The discharge standard is the maximum density of water waste discharged to the urban and town wastewater treatment plant in Liaoning Provincial Wastewater Comprehensive Discharge Standard (DB21/1627-2008) as is shown in Table III-5. Table III-5 Construction Wastewater Discharge Standards (mg/L) No. Water Quality Index Limit 1 CODCr 300 2 BOD 250 3 Petroleum 20 4 NH3-N 30 5 SS 300 Key: CODcr = chemical oxygen demand, SS = suspended solids, NH3-N = ammonia nitrogen. b. Wastewater Discharge Standard during Operation Period 30. Wastewater generated during operation is mainly few wastewater by recycled water from filter backwash and domestic wastewater in from water plant and other water supply institutions (pump station and etc.). The discharge standard applies to Liaoning Provincial Wastewater Comprehensive Discharge Standard (DB21/1627-2008) as is shown in Table III-5. 31. The World Bank's General Guidelines for environment, health and safety provides domestic wastewater discharge standards, but the national or local domestic wastewater discharge standards are preferred; and the Guideline for water and sanitation environment, health and safety mentions that the sewage treatment technology should meet the sewage quality consistent with the relevant national requirements or internationally recognized standards, including China's GB 18918-2002, so the domestic standard is applicable. c. Exhaust emission standard during Construction Period 32. The exhaust emission during construction period is mainly unorganized dust emissions, the limit is shown in Table III-6. Table III-6 Air Pollutants Emission Standard (mg/m 3) Maximum Allowable Pollution Sources Pollutants Emission Standard Source Concentration 《Air Pollutants Comprehensive Construction site and Emission Standard》(GB16297- Dust 1.0 ambient area 1996) Table 2 Maximum Concentration without the site 33. The EHS Guidelines haven't mentioned waste gas emission standard, so the atmospheric pollutant emission standard of Japan is referred and compared here. It can be seen that the Japanese standard makes a more detailed classification on particulate matters, conducts a further refinement on smoke and dust and puts forward the corresponding requirements, but doesn't formulate requirements on emission rate. According to the local conditions, China have formulated the emission standards of air pollutants suitable for the region, which stipulate the pollutant emission concentration and rate, and the emission concentration limit is stricter than that of Japan. So, the domestic standard will be implemented. d. Noise Emission Standards during Construction 34. The construction period applies to Noise Emission Standard within Construction Site (GB12523-2011), the limit value is shown in Table III-7. Table III-7 d. Noise Emission Standards for Construction Site (dB(A)) Day Night 70dB（A） 55dB（A） e. Noise Emission Standards during Operation 35. The noise during operation period is generated from the operation of pumps and blowers, the emission standards applies to Noise Emission Standard for Enterprises and Industries (GB12348—2008). The Project areas are classified as Class II, the area ambient to arterial traffic area is classified as Class IV. The standard is shown in Table III-8. Table I0-8 Acoustic Quality Standards (dB (A)) Standard Category Day Night I 55 45 II 60 50 IV 70 55 36. The EHS Guidelines haven’t offered the relevant standards on noise emission. On the basis of comparison analysis of Japanese standard with Chinese standard, it can be seen the Chinese standard is stricter, so the domestic standard will be implemented f. Occupational Health and Noise Safety Standards 37. The Water and Sanitation Environment, Health and Safety Guideline requires to follow General EHS Guideline, the Project is classified as light industry. The noise limit in different work environment is shown in Table III-9. Table III-09 Upper Limit of Noise in Different Work Environment in General EHS Guideline (dB (A)) Period of Time Equivalent Maximum Acoustic Function Category LAeq，8h LAmax，fast Open office, control room, service counter, and 45～50 —— etc. Single office (without noise) 40～45 —— Heavy industry (no need to verbal communication) 85 110 Light industry (need a small amount of oral 50～65 110 communication) 38. After the comparison between international and domestic noise emission limits, it could be found that the domestic requirement is stricter then EHS regarding function category. Therefore, the Project will carry out domestic standard. The execution for noise emission standard is shown in Table III-10. Table III-10 Execution for Noise Emission Standard (dB (A)) Acoustic Period of time Function Project content Remark Category Day Night Nearby sensitive areas, residential 1 Water plant, 55 45 areas, schools, pump stations hospitals, etc. and pipeline Mixed industrial, 2 projects 60 50 residential area 4a 70 55 Arterial traffic area g. Drinking Water Quality Standards 39. The Water and Sanitation, Health and Safety Guidelines specify that the water quality of drinking water supply systems is in accordance with drinking water standards set by national legislation or, in the absence of such standards, the latest World Health Organization (WHO) drinking water quality guidelines. Operation of the WSPs and quality of the treated water to be provided to residents will require compliance with the PRC Drinking Water Quality Standard (GB5749-2006), in which 106 parameters must be met (Table III-11).

Ambient Air Quality Standard 40. PRC uses coal as main fuel, the environment air quality standard shall compliance with PRC standard. After site survey, the air sensitive location for are located at Grade II Air Quality Area. Assessment of ambient air quality was in accordance with Grade II of PRC Ambient Air Quality Standard GB3039-2012, in Table III-12. Table III-12: Ambient Air Quality Grade II Standard (mg/m3) Pollutant TSP PM10 SO2 NO2 CO Grade II Annual average 200 70 60 40 — Concentration Limits Daily average 300 150 150 80 4 Standard in GB3095- 2012 Hourly average — — 500 200 10 41. The WHO guidelines for environmental air quality recommended by the EHS Guidelines. Comparison indicates that the indicators are basic consistent with the national standard. So the domestic standard is applicable. i. Water Quality Standards 42. Surface water quality standard classifies the water function within the Project in accordance with Surface water Environment Function Category. The applicable standards for the proposed project components are PRC Surface Water Environment Quality Standard (GB3838- 2002) – Grades III, IV and V respectively (Table III-13). Table I0-13: Surface Water Quality Standards (mg/L, pH excluded) Surface Water Quality Grade No. Water Quality Index Grades III Grades IV Grades V 1 pH 6～9 6～9 6～9 2 COD ≤20 ≤30 ≤40 3 NH3-N ≤1.0 ≤1.5 ≤2.0 4 Petroleum ≤0.05 ≤0.5 ≤1.0 5 Sulfide ≤0.2 ≤0.5 ≤1.0 6 Chloride ≤250 ≤250 ≤250 7 Fluoride ≤1.0 ≤1.5 ≤1.5 Key: CODMn = permanganate index, NH3-N=ammonia nitrogen. 43. The national standard is adopted as no surface water quality standards are proposed in the EHS Guidelines. Due to the fact that China has formulated the surface water environmental quality standards suitable for its own country according to the national conditions, and according to the requirement as ‘complying with the national and local standards’ and the practical principles mentioned by the EHS guidelines and ESF, the domestic standards shall be implemented for this case. j. Acoustic Environment Quality Standards 44. In accordance with the PRC Acoustic Environmental Quality Standard (GB3096-2008), the project areas are classified as Class I or II, and areas next to arterial traffic area is classified as Class 4a, the execution of acoustic environment quality standard is shown in Table III-14. Table III-14 Acoustic Quality Standards (dB (A)) PRC (GB3096-2008) World Bank Group EHS Acoustic Day Night Environment Category Day Night （07:00~22:00） （22:00~07:00） Factory (mixed areas of industrial II 60 50 70 70 and residential areas) Sensitive areas villages and I 55 45 554 45 schools Arterial traffic area IV-a 70 55 —— —— 45. It is shown from the data above that the noise guideline values for domestic and WB EHS for residential, office and teaching area are the same; but domestic standard is stricter than WB EHS in industrial and commercial infrastructures; EHS doesn’t have requirement for traffic area, mixed commercial and residential areas. Therefore, the Project adopts domestic standard. III-4 Domestic framework for EA approval and environment management 46. The PRC’s Management Guideline of Environmental Protection Categories of Construction Projects (2002) provides detailed classifications of the EA study, including 23 general categories and 198 subcategories based on the project’s nature, scale and environmental sensitivity. In accordance with the guideline, the current project was classified into the categories of urban infrastructure, and, water source protection and development. 47. The institutional framework for the EA approval process of the Project involves the Liaoning Provincial Environmental Protection Department (EPD) and the five project cities’ Environmental Protection Bureaus (EPBs). The provincial EPD and municipal EPBs will (i) organize experts for the EA evaluation, including compliance with appropriate laws, regulations and standards and (ii) is responsible for final EAs approval; and the five project cities’ EPBs are responsible for environmental management and supervision during project implementation, including mitigation measures and environmental monitoring. The authority for each EIA approval is listed in Table III-15 below. Table III-15 Domestic EIAs Preparation and Approval No. City EA Institute Authority for EIA approval Shenyang Lvheng Environmental 1 Shenyang Shenyang Municipal EPB Consulting Co., LTD Liaoning Ruier Engineering 2 Anshan Liaoning Provincial EPD5 Consulting Co., LTD Liaoning Yingrui Environmental 3 Fushun Fushun Municipal EPB Consulting Co., LTD Ningxia Zhicheng Anhuan 4 Fuxin Fuxin Municipal EPB Technology Co., LTD Yingkou Environmental Scientism 5 Gaizhou Anshan Municipal EPB Institute Source: discussion with the EA institutes 5 The construction will involve Liaoyang city, so the approval authority is the provincial EPD. IV. Environmental Baseline of Project Cities IV-1 Shenyang (1) City overview 48. Shenyang, the capital of Liaoning Province, is located in the central part of the Province. It’s the center of economy, culture, transportation, commerce and trade of northeast China, a large industrial and famous historic and cultural city with a total area of 13,000 km2, of which the urban area is 3,495 km2. The population in 2015 is 8.228 million including the registered population of 7.248 million, of which the urban population is 5.221 million. 49. Shenyang is one of the national heavy industry bases that give priority to equipment manufacturing industry constructed at the early stage of the founding of the PRC. After development for several decades, Shenyang’s industrial categories have reached 142. There are 3,033 large-scale industrial enterprises by the end of 2015. The regional gross domestic product (GDP) was RMB 728 billion yuan in 2015. 50. Weather and hydrology: Shenyang is located at the east of Eurasia and has temperate continental monsoon climate with long, cold winters and short, warm summers. The average temperatures range from 6.2 ℃ to 9.7 ℃ , the extreme maximum temperature and minimum temperature were 38.3℃ and -32.9℃, respectively. The average annual precipitation is 600-800 mm, mostly occurring during July to September. 51. Topographic and geology: The project area (Shenyang urban area) is high terrace, belonging to the Changbai Mountains, with altitude of 40-60m above sea level (ASL), from northeast to south gradually incline. The topographic structure is loess material accumulation and bedrock. The geologic condition of the project area is that the stratum is Quaternary alluvium, whose lithology are topsoil layer, sandy clay layer and gravel sandy layer from up to down. Surface layer thickness is 0.75-1.0 m, sandy clay layer thickness is 5-10 m, and gravel pebble layer thickness is more than 20 m. 52. Hydrological Condition: Groundwater is abundance in Shenyang, porous diving, stored in the Quaternary gravel layer. The main recharge of groundwater is precipitation, and the average groundwater table is 7-8 m. There are six (6) rivers in Shenyang Municipality, including Liao River, Hun River, Raoyang River, Liu River, Pu River, Yangxi River, Beisha River and Xiushui River. The total annual utilizable water resource is 2.314 billion m3 including surface water resource of 380 million m3 and groundwater resource of 1.934 billion m3. (2) Current status of construction site 53. The proposed Shenyang municipal pipeline constructions will be laid under the existing municipal roads (non-motorized lanes); while the residential courtyard pipe works will be laid under the residential community’ path, small part of the pipes will pass through greenbelts within the residential yards, the path and grassland will be recovered after the pipes are constructed.

Acoustic environment: The proposed pipeline will be constructed along the municipal roads, so the baseline data in the domestic EA was from the Environmental Quality Report of Shenyang City in the year of 2014. 59. In 2014, the average traffic sound environmental quality in Shenyang was 69.8dB. According to the stipulation of the road traffic noise intensity grade in the "Technical Specifications for Monitoring of Environmental Noise - Routine monitoring for urban acoustic environment" (HJ640-2012), the applicable sound environmental quality is Grade II. The noise intensity level of the 30 road sections out of the 47 road sections monitored is Grade II or better than Grade II, rated as to the good or the moderately good. The length of 30 road sections is 88.5 km, accounting for 62.8% of the total monitored road length. The noise intensity levels of the 17 road sections out of the 47 road sections are Grade III or worse than Grade III with noise monitoring value higher than 70dB. The length of the 17 road section is 52.3 km, accounting for 37.2% of the total monitored road length. (4) Situation of Shenyang water supply system 60. The water supply system of Shenyang City was founded in 1915. The raw water sources of urban water supply include both groundwater and surface water. The ground waters are mainly along the riversides of the Hun River and the Liao River, while the surface water is from Dahuofang Reservoir in Fushun Municipality. In 2015, the maximum and average daily water supply amounts were 1.637 million m3 and 1.462 m3, respectively, of which the surface water is 0.923 million m3 (accounting for 63%), and the groundwater is 0.539 million m3 (accounting for 37%). 61. The existing WSPs. Shenyang Water Supply Company has nine (9) WSPs with the total water supply capacity of 1.985million m3/d. The maximum water supply in 2015 was 1.806million m3/d. In addition to the surface water intake in the Dahuofang Reservoir, there are 32 groundwater sources with 552 wells and 53 water tanks with the total volume of 305,000 m3, accounting for 20% of the total water supply capacity; and there are 22 raw water pumping stations with 102 pumps in Shenyang. 62. The water distribution pipe network. The total lengths of municipal water supply pipeline and the pipeline within the residential communities in the urban area are 3,031.8 km and 2,850 km, respectively. The length of trunk raw water transmission pipeline is 636 km with the diameter of DN700~DN2000. The materials of distribution pipe include PE, DIP, steel and fiberglass, etc. There are 7,056 valves and 4,286 outdoor fire hydrants in the urban area. 63. The water distribution system in the urban area widely adopts secondary water supply, with the coverage rate of more than 90%, and 1,829 secondary water supply pump stations in total. The water storage capacity of secondary water supply is 400,000 m3, and adjustable volume of water supply is more than 20% of the total. Due to aged pipeline in urban area, the water leakage accidents were frequently occurred, according to statistics, the average pipeline leakage accidents in 2009 - 2010 are 1000 - 1800 times annually, of which DN75~DN200 pipeline leakage accidents accounted for 65% to 77%. In 2014 - 2015, the average pipeline leakage rate was 21.69%. The frequent pipeline leakage causes low water supply pressure in the distribution network, which is one of the main reasons for the widely use of secondary booster pumping water supply in the urban area. 64. The major weaknesses in the water supply system. The aged water supply network causing high leakage rate. In the total 3,031.8km water supply pipe network in Shenyang, those running over 50 years are 242 km (accounting for 8% of the total) and over 40 years are 500 km (accounting for 16.5%), respectively. The aged pipes increase both the power consumption and water resource loss. IV-2 Anshan 65. Located in the center of Liaoning Province, 89 kilometers south of Shenyang, Anshan is the third biggest cities in Liaodong province, after Shenyang and Dalian. Anshan covers an area of about 9,252 km2, and total population of 3.584 million including urban population of 1.467 million in 2015. Anshan was known in China as "The Capital of Steel Industry.

The water source and WSPs. The Anshan water supply system is composed of three parts: the municipal water supply system; water supply system of Anshan Iron and Steel Co., and the water supply system owned by the industrial and mining enterprises. The municipal water supply system is the main part. 76. There are four water sources for the municipal water supply system, of which two surface water sources are Tanghe River with the capacity of 350,000 m3/d, and Laohushan WSP with the capacity 150,000 m3/d; Two groundwater sources are: Dazhaotai WSP with the capacity of 20,000m3/d, and West suburb water source with the capacity of 30,000 m3/d. The designed water supply capacity of the municipal system is 577,500m3/d, while the current maximum water supply is 470,000m3. The current NRW is 39%, and the tap water supply coverage is 93%. The total urban population is 1.467 million, of which the water supplied population by the municipal water supply system is 1.3881 million. 77. Tanghe River is the largest surface water source for Anshan City, which was a large-scale water supply project financed by the Japanese loan. The WSP includes Phase I and Phase II, with the designed capacities of 350,000m3/d, including Phase I of 200,000m3/day and Phase II of 150,000m3/day. The Phase I of the project was completed in July 1993 and the phase II was completed in 2010. The system includes reservoir water intake, raw water transmission pipeline, water treatment, and water distribution. Wangjiayu WSP is the largest one in Anshan City, which supplies water to the districts of Tiedong, Lishan and Qianshan in the City, accounting 70% of the city’s total water supply amount. But the water quality of WSP cannot meet the national Drinking Water Quality Standard of GB5749-2006. The west suburb water source is located 6 km away from the urban area, including a group of wells and the WSP, with the water supply amount of 30,000m3/d. 78. The distribution pipeline network. The total length of existing water distribution pipeline is 2,526 km, in which about 300 km pipes have been operating for more than 30 years. The aged pipeline cases high NRW and water quality problem. Figure IV-1+2 Aged pipes resulting high NRW Figure IV-3+4 rusty Pumping Equipment 79. The secondary water supply system. The urban area of Anshan City is 154.3km2, about 10km from north to south and 7 km from east to west. The feature of landscape is higher in the east and south and lower in west and north, with 97m elevation difference maximally (114 m ASL in Tiedong District and 17 m ASL in Tiexi District). In order to meet the residential communities located on higher elevation area, without increasing the pressure of municipal pipe network, there are 406 secondary booster pumping stations, which supply water to about 350,000 urban residents. 80. There are 624,000 residential tap water consumers in the urban areas, and 138,800 water meters have been operating for more than 10 years (generally, water meter life cycle is 6 years). Although the Anshan water supply company used its own fund to update partial water meters each year, but still more aged water meters in operation. The most water meters are old rotating type, with large metering error. IV-3 Fushun 81. Fushun is located in the center of Liaoning Province, 45 km south of Shenyang, with the total area of 11.271 km2 and the population of 2.19 million in 2015, including urban population of 1.41 million. Fushun was known in China as "The Capital of Coal Mine. The regional GDP was RMB 127.66 billion yuan in 2015. (i) Natural Environment 82. Weather and hydrology: Fushun is under the continental monsoon climate in the warm temperate zone, with four distinct seasons, the average temperatures range from 5.0℃ to 7.0℃. the extreme maximum temperature and extremely minimum temperature were 36.9 ℃ and - 30.4℃, respectively. The average annual precipitation is 760-790 mm, mostly occurring during July to September. 83. Topographic and Geology: Fushun is located in the alluvial plain of Hun River valley with hills in the south and north. The average elevation of the municipality is 65 to 99 m ASL. The city is strip layout along the Hun River, with the length over 30 km from east to west, and the width of 6 ~ 8km from north to south.

Raw water sources and water supply amount. The water sources of Fuxin city include three groundwater sources (Ling River, Wangfu, Daba) and three surface water sources (Naodehai Reservoir, Baishi Reservoir, and Fosi Reservoir), with the maximum water supply capacity of 350,000 m3/d. In 2015, the highest water supply amount of urban area is 250,000 m3/d, of which the surface water takes up 160,000 m3/d (accounting for 64%), and the groundwater takes up 90,000 m3/d (accounting for 36%). In order to protect local ecological environment, the four WSPs will have to be shut down except the WSPs of Naodehai and Baishi according to the plan. The raw water pipeline for the two WSPs is about 90 km, and the terrain that pipelines along is complex, and crosses several rivers. If raw water pipeline failure occurs, it will severely impact the water supply safety in the city. 105. Fuxin Water Supply Company is the only water supply enterprise in the City. Its water supply area is 78.3 km2 and coverage rate of 98%, the length of water supply pipeline is 2197 km. The company is responsible for supply tap water to 1,600 enterprises and institutions, more than 20,000 industrial and commercial users, more than 0.34 million households (nearly 0.8 million residents). The total annual water supply amount is 73.36 million m3. 106. The current water consumption per capita in Fuxin urban area is 0.11 m 3/d only, With the coal resource exhausted, Fuxin’ accelerated industrial transformation and development, its water supply shortage gradually revealed. The water supply shortage seriously affects the economic development of the City and its residents’ life. 107. Fuxin City’s water supply system was founded in 1930s. Part of the water supply pipeline is aged with high leaking rate, especially in the old residential communities. The average leakage rate of pipe network in some old residential communities is up to 60%. In 2015 a year, the total amount of water leaking loss was as high as nearly 7.0 million m3 annually, which caused waste of water resources, energy consumption, and high cost of water supply. According to statistics, the domestic water supply cost is higher than the world average level. The cost of water supply in Liaoning Province is higher than the national average level. And Fuxin is the highest cost one in Liaoning province. 108. In 2015, the water quality compliance rates of treated water and in pipe were 99.7% and 99.51%, respectively. The main parameters exceeded the standards are turbidity (with the exceeded standard rate of 1.5%), residual chlorine (exceeded 0.41%), thermos-tolerant coliform (exceeded 0.20%). The reason for the exceeded standard are aged pipeline network and pipeline sediment, and the pipeline leakage, etc. there is no qualified water quality monitoring instruments to ensure accuracy of water quality monitoring. Nevertheless, due to shortage of investment, the project construction has not been fully completed. 109. The Naodehai WSP, use surface water as its raw water, is located in the eastern part of Fuxin City. Its design capacity is 100,000 m3/d, the actual maximum water production amount is 70,000 m3/day. The WSP was built in the early 1990s. Most equipment have been aged and malfunction. The interior walls of water purification chamber peel off seriously, which not only affects the appearance, but also may plug the process equipment, and impact the treated water quality. Most of old equipment need to be replaced under this project. IV-5 Gaizhou 110. Gaizhou is located in the northwest of Liadong Peninsula, 212 km south of Shenyang, with the total area of 2,930 km2 and the population of 720,000 in 2015.

At present there are two groundwater WSPs, with the designed capacity of 65,000m3/d, and the actual water supply amount of 40,000m3/d. 124. Tashan WSP, located at the foot of Tashan Mountain, was built in 1990. The WSP, with the total area of 0.99ha, takes water from 6 deep wells along the north riverside of Daqing River. The water supply capacity is 15,000m3/d. The length of water transmission pipeline (DN400) is 3 km. The water treatment process includes groundwater taking and chlorinated disinfection. Due to urban development, the water supply capacity is planned to expand to 45,000m3/d. 125. Henan WSP, located in Daqing River Economic Development District, was built in 2004, with the total area of 1.2ha. The water supply capacity is 20,000m3/d. The treatment process is groundwater taking from wells and chlorinated disinfection. 126. The water distribution pipeline of Hebei District in Gaizhou City was constructed in 1972, with the total length of 42 km (DN100-DN600). Most of pipes were constructed in 1972, together with the Tashan WSP, but some pipes for the old residential communities were constructed even in 1950s-1960s, with high leakage rate. 127. The distribution pipeline of Henan District, constructed together with the Henan WSP, is generally in good condition. The distribution network (DN200-DN800) with the total length of 24.9km, for the East District and Beihai New District, is under construction, after the construction, the total length of water distribution pipe in the city will be 67 km. 128. At present, the water supply networks in the newly built residential communities are relatively completed, but those within the old residential communities, due to aged pipes, the water leakage is high, and with potential secondary water quality contamination. There are no partitioned metering neither pipeline flow monitoring device in some low water pressure areas and semi-urban areas. In some areas, even water bills are charged by number of people or household, not by actual water consumption. There is no intelligent water supply and pipeline system in the city. IV-6 Environment Protection Objectives within Project Area of Influence in five Project Cities 129. Based on the characteristics of the proposed project components/subprojects, the environmental features of the sites and inspection by the EA Institutes, the sensitive receivers within the projects’ area of influence in the five project cities have been identified, which are listed in Table IV-19 to Table IV-23 below. 130. The environmental impact factors for the project environmental protection objectives are all dust, noise and construction safety. The applicable environmental standard is Class II in Ambient Air Quality Standard (GB3095-2012) and Class 1, 2 and 4a in Acoustic Environment Quality Standard (GB3096-2008). In addition to the Christianity Church in Shenyang, the project doesn’t involve water source protection zone, nature reserve zone and scenic spots and other sensitive areas except one Catholic church in Shenyang. (1) Environment Protection Objectives for Shenyang Project 131. The main constructions of Shenyang Project are pipeline works, the related environment protection objectives are residential communities, schools, hospitals, and kindergartens, etc. along the pipeline routes. The major impacts during the construction are dust, noise, traffic congestion and safety, etc. the constructions involve 5 railway crossings and 8 river crossings (Table 7-8). For reducing the impacts to the river environment and railway transportation, the trenchless technologies (pipe-jacking and pipe–pulling) will be adopted, which are environmentally friendly technologies with only small amount of slurry and surplus earth impact. 132. Shenyang Nanguan Catholic Church was built in 1878, which was destroyed by fire in 1900. The existing structure was rebuilt in 1912. The total area of church is 1100 m2 (66m in south to north direction, and 17m in west to east direction), with the height of 40m. The church was named as municipal heritage conservation unit by Shenyang Municipal Government in February 1985, while named as the provincial heritage conservation unit by Liaoning Provincial Government in December 1988. The church is the catholic community center in Shenyang and the northeast area of China. Currently, the numbers of catholic believers participating the weekly Mass are about 2000. The nearest distance between the construction site and the protection boundary of Church (30m out of the Church wall) is about 180m. The construction will not occupy (including temporary occupying) any area within the protection range.

Due Diligence for Associated Facilities 133. A due diligence for the associated facilities of the project was conducted by the consultants and the EA Institutes based on the requirement of the World Bank Safeguard Policy. The followings are classified as facilities associated to this project: (i) the four reservoirs and dams; (ii) the two domestic financed WSPs in Fuxin City; and (iii) the operational capacity of the existing WWTP in five project Cities. V-1 Reservoir Dams 134. The proposed Project does not involve any activities to construct or rehabilitate dams. However, four existing reservoirs are associated with the Project, which are raw water sources of the subprojects in the five project cities.

Identification of Environmental Impact Factors. According to the content and characteristics of the project, the main environmental impact is pipeline, WSPs (rehabilitation) and the influence of the pumping stations during construction period; during operation phase, the main impcats will be the reduction of water source quantity caused by increase of water supply and wastewater discharge increase caused by the water leak rate reduction. In addition, pipeline construction can cause temporary traffic jams, and may interfere the gas, heating, power supply, water drainage, and other municipal underground pipeline, thus some adverse environmental impact on residents' life and work. 164. During the construction, building materials transport and temporary storage and use, and soil spoil and temporary building materials pool may generate dust; domestic sewage is likely to cause water pollution; construction machinery noise near the site may have impact on residents' life; frequent travel by construction vehicle will cause certain traffic congestion; construction process need to avoid inflammable and explosive goods to prohibit fire explosion risk. But the main risk during operation period is disinfectant chlorine leakage. Environmental factor identification are shown in Table VII-4.

Demolition waste disposal. According to EIA institute’s estimation, including those to be demolished from the 9 pumping stations renewal work proposed in April 2017 by Fuxin WSC, the project pump station and pipeline constructions will generate about 3,000 tons of demolition waste of iron and ductile iron pipes, 10,000 tons of waste PE pipe, 84,000 wasted water meters, and 45 wasted pump electric motors. Waste pipe and water meters can be categorized as general solid waste, which is nonpoisonous and harmless, and can be recycled through each city recycling system in line with the 3R principle (reduce, recycle, reuse). However, the discarded electric motors contain small amounts of lead, cadmium, chromium, polyvinyl chloride, halide flame retardants and poisonous and harmful material such as PCB, which are hazardous waste. Waste like these will be sent to Liaoning Environmental Protection Engineering (Shenyang) Center for Hazardous Waste Disposal, which is a qualified hazardous waste disposal institute, for free-pollution disposal. 169. During the mid-term restructuring the WSPs renovation projects in Fushun and Gezhou both involve the removal of transformers whose waste oil contains PCBS, which are carcinogens and dangerous wastes. Waste management in the EHS guideline has clear provisions on the collection, transportation and disposal of industrial hazardous waste: a) Hazardous waste collection and transportation 170. The transport of industrial hazardous waste is very professional, requires proper equipment and is carried out by properly trained personnel. The General EHS Guide provides recommended measures to prevent spillage and discharge during waste transport, as well as recommended measures to facilitate emergency response in the event of an accident. Other recommendations applicable to hazardous waste collection and transportation operations include: ➢ Dismantle of transformers should be performed by professional team. Packaging, labeling and transportation of hazardous materials and wastes in accordance with relevant national regulations and internationally recognized standards using specially designed and processed tanks and containers suitable for the wastes to be transported: ➢ If other containers are used to transport waste, they must be in good working order, used to hold the waste being transported and properly protected on the transport vehicle; ➢ Properly label all tankers and containers so that in the event of a variety of emergencies, the waste being transported, the hazards of the waste, and the actions to be taken will be understood. b) Waste receiving, unloading, treatment and storage 171. Because of the potential harmfulness of waste itself, it is particularly important for industrial hazardous waste management plants to understand and control the nature of waste received for storage, treatment or discharge. If can't correctly understand and distinguish receives waste, can cause to improper disposal of waste, emissions, or accident response, thereby releasing harmful substances, or cause fire and explosion, therefore, suggest to take measures, control waste receiving, and in the following comprehensive measures of industrial hazardous waste management to reduce the risk: ➢ Establish and maintain close relationship with waste producers, understand the process of waste generation, and monitor the changes in the process or characteristics of waste ➢ Adequate and qualified staff should be available at all times. All personnel must undergo specific job training, ➢ To fully understand the received waste, to take into account the characteristics and variability of waste, waste rice source, treatment. If residues are generated in the process of treatment, the nature of waste disposal residues and potential risks related to treatment should also be considered: ➢ Perform pre-inspection procedures, including, where appropriate, testing of received waste and recording the source of waste (e.g. the process by which it was generated, including variability of the process) And identify appropriate handling/disposal methods to implement acceptance procedures and, where appropriate, accept only wastes that can be effectively managed, including efficient disposal of wastes or recycling of waste disposal residues. Only in the guarantee with the necessary storage and processing ability, and can manage the processing residue cases (e.g., to other places for garbage disposal waste production acceptance criteria), will be able to receive waste, waste receiving plant to set up the laboratory, in accordance with the requirements for plant operation speed of receives waste sample analysis, to determine whether can receive ➢ During treatment, the waste is analyzed according to the important parameters of the waste receiving plant (e.g. landfill or incinerator). 172. Pipeline crossing engineering (railway and river). According to Feasibility Study, this project will be have 38 pipelines crossing the railway and river (see Table VII-8). After mid-term restructuring, there are no change.

In order to reduce the impact on environment and transportation, this project adopts the stay tube (pipe-pulling) and pipe jacking (non-excavation technology) way crossing the railway and river. Pipeline will be under the rail and river by certain depth, it won't cause pollution to soil and water, and through accurate positioning, where will be the advantages of no tearing up the road, no blocking traffic, small disturbance, low environmental impact without limited by the season; In addition, threr is no construction impact on aquatic creatures and water quality. It is an environmental friendly way of pipeline crossing. However, it will still produce a certain amount of non-toxic wastes and sludge, which can be used for building and road foundation backfill. Pipeline construction site will set sludge pools, strict seepage control measures will be taken with composite lining, and it will be compacted by machinery (stratum soil compaction). Then it will use synthetic material lining as the underlying, and the high density polyethylene with thickness of no less than 1.5 mm, the seepage coefficient not more than 10-12 cm/s. Finally, 5 cm clay will be laid on the artificial lining cover, and adopt mechanical compaction. After the above treatment the seepage coefficient of the sludge pool which is smaller than 1 x 10-7 cm/s meets the requirements of anti-seepage.

Liquid chlorine leak risk during operation of WSPs and emergency response plans. The project includes the reconstruction of two existing WSPs (Anshan and Fuxin). The disinfectant adopts liquid chlorine, the storage and transportation of liquid chlorine exist potential environmental risks, especially for liquid chlorine cylinder leakage accident, the harm will be large. Therefore, the risk factors in the process of storage and transportation of liquid chlorine leakage is poisoning accident. In the process of storage and chlorine disinfection, the main accident that may exist will be the pipeline valve leakage, ejector equipment failure, and operation error, etc. The most serious accident will be leak valve damage. The accident risk prevention and mitigation measures include: 176. Measures to prevent accidents in the process of transportation: liquid chlorine belongs to the dangerous goods, in the process of transportation, special attention should be paid to ensure safety. Shipment should designate person, vehicle. If leaking is found in the process of transportation, active measures should be taken to deal with and prevent further expansion. After cutting off the leak source, the accident should be timely reported to the local public security and relevant departments. If no effective measures can be taken, one should immediately report to the local public security and relevant departments to request support. 177. Safety measures in the process of operation: to strengthen the training of operators, improve operation skills, follow the operating procedures, the bottle on two on-line valve should be perpendicular to the ground during installation of liquid chlorine steel cylinder, chlorine gas bottle is on top, liquid chlorine valve is on bottle, the output to the evaporator pipe connected to the valve of liquid chlorine. When multiple chlorine bottle supply at the same time, keep each chlorine bottle temperature the same to avoid high temperature container gas cause pressurization, there is high quality demand of electrical components and pipeline fittings of evaporator, so regular maintenance and the management level should be improved regularly. 178. Chlorine workshop should configure chlorine leakage alarm device, emergency supplies box and protective masks, including 2 to 3 sets of the onboard oxygen masks, etc., and equip with mechanical forced ventilation facilities and chlorine gas spray processing equipment to ensure the timely report to the police after the accident, emergency handling, ventilation and treatment. Accident emergency measures including: i). After the liquid chlorine leaking, the on duty personnel should immediately wear respirator, check the specific leak location, and report to the WSP scheduling, chlorine maintenance gang and the leadership as soon as possible; ii). After receiving the report, the leader should immediately organize maintenance personnel to conduct emergency maintenance, evacuate irrelevant personnel, rescue people, set up the isolation zone, and work with emergency rescue team to follow unified deployment by the company rescue and relief headquarters. iii). if it is chlorine bottles leaking, the on-duty personnel must wear work clothes, gloves and mask or respirator, and turn the leaks to upper part and put it into gas space; iv). If it is fusible plug leakage, bamboo sticks or stopper plugging can complete plugging treatment; v). If it is leakage of cylinder valves, the personnel should immediately tighten hexagonal nut; vi). If it is bottle weld leakage, the personnel should line it with rubber mat or a piece of iron banding. It is strictly prohibited to leak water directly, lye (sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide solution) or water spray should be conducted around to leak to absorb chlorine evaporated into the air and prevent the spread expansion to cause the personnel outside the exclusion zone poisoning. vii). Before the arrival of the 120 emergency, based on the status, the severe poisoning injured workers should be moved quickly to fresh air, if the heart stops, it is essential to immediately perform artificial respiration and chest outside heart compression. 179. The injured first aid measures include: i) Skin contact: immediately remove contaminated clothes and rinse with water for medical treatment; ii) Eye contact: mention eyelid, irrigate with flowing water or normal saline; iii) Inhalation: quickly fled the scene to fresh air place, if heart stops, immediately perform artificial respiration and chest outside heart compression. 180. Operating personnel protective measures include: i) Body protection type adhesive wear the mask gas-protection clothing and rubber gloves; ii) Respiratory protection: it recommends to wear air respirator when higher concentration in the air or oxygen respirator, oxygen breathing apparatus must be worn when emergency rescue or evacuation; iii) Eye protection: respiratory protection has been made in protection; iv) Smoking, eating and drinking is forbidden in job site. After work, it is important to maintain good health habits to shower and change clothes, supervision should be conducted when one is getting into the jar, restricted space, or other high concentration area. 181. Environmental risk analysis of sodium hypochlorite leakage 182. The restructuring project of Fushun and Gaizhou transforms (Fushun Wujiapu, Hebei, Park, Jiangjun, Haicheng, and Gaizhou Henan and Tashan WSP), a total of eight WSPs water dosing and disinfection process, by chlorine disinfection is instead of sodium hypochlorite disinfection (sodium hypochlorite is composed of salt electrolytic preparation of sodium hypochlorite generator). Salt water is a saturated aqueous solution of NaCl, which is non-toxic and harmless. The environmental risk substance is sodium hypochlorite (corrosive). Sodium hypochlorite is canned and not stockpiled, so the storage capacity is small. The storage area is impermeable as required, and the possibility of entering water body, soil and the external environment of the device is very small. In the process of sodium hypochlorite storage, fire and explosion may occur due to temperature and spark, resulting in material leakage in the whole storage area, pollution of air, groundwater and soil. And there is a risk of water distribution pipe burst. 183. The accident risk prevention and mitigation measures include: ➢ Strengthen equipment management. In particular, the parts that are prone to leakage of hazardous substances should be inspected more closely. Focus safety supervision on storage tanks, valves and equipment related to them, once abnormal conditions are found, personnel must be organized in time to repair. ➢ Equip the plant with protective masks, goggles, anti-corrosion gloves and other protective first-aid supplies; set up first-aid flushing equipment at locations prone to toxic contamination, and do a good job of fire prevention, lightning protection and explosion prevention in the plant. ➢ The sodium hypochlorite generator system is closed and the chlorination process is also a closed operation; a cofferdam is set for the sodium chlorate solution storage tank. At the same time, the airtightness of the production equipment is strengthened to prevent the phenomenon of running, venting, leakage and dripping. 184. Emergency mitigation measures for spills include： ➢ Quickly evacuate people from the contaminated area of the spill to a safe area, and isolate and strictly limit access. It is recommended that emergency response personnel wear self- contained positive pressure respirators and acid and alkaline resistant overalls. Do not come into direct contact with the spill. Cut off the source of the spill if possible. ➢ Small spills: Absorb with sand, vermiculite or other inert materials. ➢ Large spill: Construct a dike or dig a pit to receive it. Cover with foam to reduce vapor hazard. Transfer to tanker or special collector with pump, recycle or transport to waste disposal site for disposal. ➢ Engineering controls: production processes are airtight and fully ventilated. Provide safety showers and eye wash facilities. Respiratory protection: In high concentration environments, a direct type gas mask (half mask) should be worn. Eye protection: Wear chemical safety glasses. Body protection: Wear anticorrosive work clothes. Hand protection: Wear rubber gloves. 185. The injured first aid measures include: i) Skin contact: Remove contaminated clothing and flush with plenty of running water. ii)Eye contact: Lift eyelids and flush with running water or saline. Seek medical attention. iii)Inhalation: Quickly remove from the scene to fresh air. Keep airway open. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If breathing stops, give immediate artificial respiration. Seek medical attention. iv)Ingestion: Drink enough warm water to induce vomiting. Seek medical attention. 186. Risk of bursting of water distribution pipes: Pipeline rupture, fracture, there are two main reasons, one is the natural factors, namely, earthquakes, climate change, etc.; the second is the human factor, namely, the selection of materials, construction, corrosion, maintenance, operation and backfill of the pipe trench is not in accordance with the specifications and the construction of subsequent construction projects damage the pipeline, etc. 187. Distribution pipe burst mainly has the following effects: serious impact on water supply, affecting the normal work and life of the residents of enterprises within the water supply range of each water purification plant; burst pipe will flood the streets, nearby buildings, resulting in physical damage; burst pipe affects the water supply, may make the plant shutdown, affecting production; burst pipe may lead to contamination of water quality, affecting the quality of water supply. 188. Water distribution pipeline risk prevention and emergency measures： ➢ Closely monitor the water supply water pressure changes, timely detection of water release links and sections. ➢ Establish accident repair teams and equip advanced construction equipment for timely repair. ➢ Close contact with the traffic department to avoid traffic congestion caused by the construction.

Environmental Monitoring, Inspection and Reporting 191. The project environmental monitoring program focuses on the project‘s area of influence. The program describes the location of monitoring, parameters, time and frequency, implementing and supervising agencies, internal and external monitoring, and estimated costs. A detailed cost breakdown will be provided by the city EMSs when the detailed environmental monitoring programs are prepared at the start of each subproject implementation. Sampling of individual parameters shall comply with the methods provided in the relevant national environmental monitoring standards for air, water, noise, soil, pollutant discharge, and PRC Drinking Water Quality Standard of GB5749-2006. These standards are comparable with the World Bank EHS Guidelines. 192. Internal environmental inspection and monitoring. Each contractor and CSC will recruit at least one environmental staff for its internal environmental inspection and supervision during construction. The LUCRPO Environment Officer, supported by the LIEC, will be responsible for internal inspection and overall compliance with the EMP during project construction and the first year of operation. The project city EMSs will be responsible for the environmental monitoring program (i.e. water, air, noise and soil monitoring). The LUCRPO Environment Officer, LIEC and city EPBs will advise and supervise the contractors, CSCs and IAs to ensure that the environmental mitigation measures defined in the EMP are properly implemented. At the start of the project implementation, detailed internal environmental monitoring plans will be prepared by the CSCs, based on the project EMP, and reviewed and approved by the LUCRPO and LIEC. 193. Compliance monitoring. The city EMSs will conduct compliance monitoring during both construction and operation, as well as in the event of emergencies. The frequency and scope of the monitoring is described in Table VIII-1. annual monitoring reports will be prepared by the EMSs and then submitted to the IAs, the EPBs and LUCRPO for review. 194. External monitoring. In response to the World Bank Safeguard Policy requirements, the environment performance of each project component/subproject will be verified by external experts. The external experts are involved intermittently, and are external to the EA and IAs. The external experts may comprise loan implementation consultants that are not involved in day to day project implementation. The external experts will verify the EMP implementation and environmental monitoring information prepared by LUCRPO and the IAs. In verifying, external experts may conduct their own investigation by visiting the project sites, taking samples and/or conducting site inspections. The external experts will discuss the verification results with LUCRPO and the IAs, suggest corrective actions, and reflect findings in their EMP implementation and environmental monitoring verification reports. 195. Quality assurance (QA)/quality control (QC) for compliance monitoring. To ensure accuracy of the monitoring, the QA/QC procedures will be conducted in accordance with the following regulations: i) Regulations of QA/AC Management for Environmental Monitoring issued by the Ministry of Environmental Protection in July 2006; ii) QA/QC Manual for Environmental Water Monitoring (Second edition), published by the State Environmental Monitoring Centre in 2001; and iii) QA/QC Manual for Environmental Air Monitoring published by the State Environmental Monitoring Centre in 2001. 196. The results of environmental inspection and monitoring will be used to assess: (i) extent and severity of actual environmental impacts against predicted impacts; (ii) effectiveness of the mitigation measures and compliance with environmental standards and regulations; (iii) trends in impacts; (iv) overall effectiveness of EMP implementation; and (v) the need for additional mitigation measures and corrective actions if non-compliance is observed. 197. Monthly internal reports. During project construction, monthly environmental progress reports will be prepared by the CSCs and submitted to the LUCRPO and IAs. These will summarize the monthly monitoring and inspection data collected by the CSCs. These reports will present: (i) project implementation status; (ii) mitigation measures implemented; (iii) results of monitoring and inspections, including monitoring data of air, noise and surface water, in particular outlet water qualities from the proposed WSPs; (iv) analysis of monitoring data against relevant standards and the baseline data; v) violations of environmental regulations and standards (vi) any additional mitigation measures required; (vii) any environmental training received; (viii) occupational health and safety (e.g. any accidents); and (ix) any issues and follow-up actions e.g. complaints. 198. Annual environmental monitoring and progress reports. LUCRPO will, on behalf of the EA, submit to the World Bank annual environmental progress reports based on the internal and compliance monitoring and external inspections. The reports will include: (i) progress and effectiveness of EMP implementation; (ii) environmental monitoring and compliance; (iii) institutional strengthening and training; (iv) public consultation; and (v) any problems encountered during construction and operation, and corrective actions undertaken. Information on progress of the associated facilities which are relevant as part of the environmental assurances under the project, will also be included. The LIEC will help LUCRPO prepare these annual reports. The LIEC will also submit a verification report to the World Bank, which will confirm project compliance with the EMP and PRC laws, regulation and standards, and identify any implementation issues and corrective actions. 199. Report of environmental acceptance monitoring and audit. No later than one month after completion of construction work, the IA(s) will collect data/reports from contractor(s) and CSC(s), and submit construction completion reports to LUCRPO and the district EPB. The report will indicate the timing, extent, and effectiveness of the completed mitigation and maintenance activities, and point out the need for further mitigation measures and monitoring during operations. Within two months after project completion, environmental acceptance monitoring and audit reports of project completions will be (i) prepared by the EMS in accordance with the PRC Regulation on Environmental Check-and-Acceptance of Project Completion (MEP, 2001), (ii) reviewed for approval by the city EPBs, and (iii) finally reported to The World Bank by LUCRPO and the LIEC. 200. The World Bank safeguard review mission. At least once a year, a World Bank safeguard mission will visit the project sites to review project compliance with the EMP, including review of monitoring data, status of EMP implementation, and performance of the public consultation.

IX. GRIEVANCE REDRESS MECHANISM 201. Background. In the PRC, under Decree No. 431 Regulation on Petition Letters and Petitioner (State Council, 1 May 2005), a complaint acceptance mechanism is required at all levels of government, and which also protects complainants from retaliation. Under Temporary Act of Environmental Impact Assessment of Public Participating (Ministry of Environmental Protection, No.28 Document, 2006), it is needed to establish Grievance Redress Mechanism (GRM) and protect petitioner, agencies are required to implement a hotline number and email address to receive complaints and/or queries of project activities. The hotline and email address related to environmental protection shall be managed by designate staff in regarding city and district. 202. Under current general practices in Liaoning Province, as in other parts of the PRC, persons affected by construction generally first report to the contractors and IAs directly, or through their community committees. If the issue is not dealt with satisfactorily, the EPBs, which takes the leading role in addressing public concerns for the environment, then consults with the project owner or contractor to address the issue. This process is usually time-consuming. The major weakness of this system is (i) the lack of a project-specific unit to address grievances, and (ii) no specific timeframe for addressing grievances (the processing period usually takes too long and resulting to great complaints by the public). 203. Project-specific Grievance Redress Mechanism. A project Grievance Redress Mechanism (GRM) was developed by LUCRPO, IAs, and domestic EIA institutes, The GRM is a joint mechanism for the social and environmental aspects of the project. The GRM addresses the World Bank safeguard requirement to provide a platform for addressing any community concerns. It is designed to enable open channels for effective communication, identify, avoid, and mitigate any adverse impacts on potential affected peoples (APs) caused by project implementation and operations, and establish trust and respect between LUCRPO, IAs and contractors with the local communities. The GRM will be accessible to all members of the community, including the poor and vulnerable, women, children, and ethnic minorities. Multiple points of entry, including face- to-face meetings, written complaints, telephone conversations, or e-mail, are included in the GRM. Opportunities for confidentiality and privacy for complainants will be honored where this is requested, and in other cases if regarded as important. The project GRM comprises the following (Figure IX.1). i). The LUCRPO and IAs Environment and Social Officers will be responsible for implementation of the GRM. These staff will instruct the contractors and construction supervision companies (CSCs) on how to proceed with any public concerns received. They will coordinate with the district EPB and other government divisions, if necessary, and will be supported by Loan Implementation Environmental Consultant (LIEC). ii). The EPBs hotline and email address will form part of the GRM. iii). Prior to construction, key contact points for the GRM will be identified. These will include: the project IAs, contractor foremen (or contractor-nominated environmental and safety personnel), EPB, and residential committee heads. These personnel will be informed of the GRM and will ensure that their respective staff are aware of their responsibility to receive and forward any complaints received. Contact details (phone numbers, addresses, e-mail) will be publicly disseminated on information boards at construction sites and on EPB website. iv). Each contractor will assign an environment, health and safety officer (EHSO). v). A series of clear steps to identify how any complaints are received, forwarded to the appropriate persons, addressed within stated timelines, and documented. 204. Types of grievances which may be received. Public grievances addressed by the GRM will most likely relate to environmental issues during the construction phase, as consultations with communities confirmed basic support for the project. Grievances may include: (i) damage to public roads due to water supply pipeline laying, and heavy vehicle operation and transportation of heavy equipment and materials; (ii) disturbance of traffic and increased traffic congestion; (iii) dust emissions; (iv) construction noise and vibration; (v) soil erosion; (vi) inappropriate disposal of construction spoils; (vii) loss of income; (viii) damage to private homes; (ix) safety measures for the protection of the general public and construction workers; and (x) reservoir water quality deterioration during water source pumping station constructions. 205. GRM procedure. The GRM procedure is as follows (Figure IX.1). Any and all costs associated with addressing and solving public grievances shall be covered by the project. The GRM will remain open until the completion of project construction. Under the GRM, three entry points have been established – i.e. agencies which any affected person may contact: LUCRPO, the IAs, the construction contractors, and the construction supervision companies. The procedure of the mechanism is as follow: (i) Stage 1. The AP submits a written or oral complaint to any of the established entry points for the project GRM. The GRM agency which receives the complaint will immediately report it to the LUCRPO and IAs’ Environment and/or Social Officer, who will prepare a written record of the complaint. LUCRPO or the IAs Environment and/or Social Officer will immediately facilitate a meeting among the GRM agencies to (i) identify a course of action, (ii) inform the other GRM agencies if necessary, (iii) emphasize discretion and respect for the AP, and anonymity if this is requested by the AP and/or LUCRPO and the IAs decides this will benefit the AP, and (iv) identify which GRM agency will lead resolution of the issue with the AP. Initiating resolution with the AP will occur within 7 days of the complaint being received by the GRM entry approached by the AP. As far as possible the issue will also be resolved within this 7-day period, to the satisfaction of the AP and PMO. The LUCRPO and IAs’ Environment and/or Social Officer will closely oversee this process and ensure a written record is kept of the process. Complaints which are clearly not project-related and/or are outside the mandate of the GRM (e.g. resettlement, fraud, corruption), and for which other procedures are more appropriate, will be passed to relevant authorities. The LIEC will assist LUCRPO and the IAs’ officers in replying to the affected person. Records of complaints will be included in the semi-annual environmental reports to the World Bank. (ii) Stage 2. If no solution can be identified by LUCRPO and the IAs’ Environment and/or Social Officer and AP, or the AP is not satisfied with the proposed solution, LUCRPO and the IAs will organize, within two weeks, a multi-stakeholder meeting with the AP, contractor, IA, and EPB. The hearing shall identify a solution acceptable to all, and formulate an action plan. The contractors during construction and the IAs during operation will implement the agreed- upon redress solution and report the outcome to LUCRPO and the IAs’ within the agreed upon timeframe. Grievances/Complaints by APs, Groups or Institutions Oral or written complaint Solution Oral or written Found complaint Local EPB, IAs (WSCs), Community leaders Contractor/CSC Forward Inform if solved; Forward if not solved LUCRP/IAs Environment and/or Social Officers Record complaint, assess eligibility of complaint, inform relevant stakeholders, including the World Bank and the EPB Consult LIEC, IAs, contractor, CSC, Solution not found identify solution, to get AP’s consent Solution Conduct stakeholders meeting found (contractor, IAs, APs, EPB, LIEC), identify solution and action plan. PMO and the World Bank will participate if necessary. Solution found Implement Solution During During Construction Operation Contractors IAs (WSCs) Figure IX.1. The Project GRM. X. Information Disclosure, Public Consultation and Participation 206. Meaningful public and stakeholder participation and consultation during project planning, feasibility study, design and implementation are an important EA requirement, and can directly reflect the public’s perceptions on environmental quality in the project’s area of influence. 207. Relevant provisions in the Environmental Protection Law of the PRC and the Regulations on the Administration of Construction Project Environmental Protection (Order of the State Council, No. 253) require that an EA report prepared by a certified EA Institute shall be in accordance with relevant laws to solicit the opinions of organizations concerned and residents within and nearby the project sites. In August 2012, the PRC National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) issued a new requirement for “Social Risk Assessment of Large Investment Projects�, which emphasizes the importance of public consultations in an effective manner, and requires that the results of public consultation are clearly summarized in the EA report, including the dates of consultations, number of stakeholders, who the stakeholders are, and the comments received. It is also important to show how the concerns and comments from the stakeholders and affected persons (APs) have been addressed by the updated FSR, the project design, the EA and EMP. The World Bank Safeguard Policy (OP/BP4.01) also requires meaningful public participation, consultation and information disclosure. The information disclosure in this Project is website and local newspaper. Forums and questionnaire will be used for public consultation. X-1 Information disclosure and public consultation 208. The information disclosure for the city subprojects were conducted by the EIA Institutes in the five project cities, which include: i)project name, IAs, management units and funding source; ii)project content and planned construction methods (brief introduction); iii) estimated construction period (starting and completing time); iv) project scope and estimated environmental impact type and scope; v) mitigation measures and monitoring plan in EA and EMP; vi) EA and EMP; and vii) project IAs (5 water supply companies), contact details of the LUCRPO, IAs, the EA Institutes and local EPBs. 209. The information disclosure was posted on the website of Liaoning Provincial Housing and construction division on 28 February 2017 (http://www.lnjst.gov.cn/website/main/index.aspx), the information posted include the project cities, the contents of project and subprojects, and the link of EMP.

During the public consultation in five cities, 275 public questionnaires were issued and received 275 copies, women accounted for 55.3% (five cities comprehensive statistics, same below); for the age composition, age between 20 to 40 years old accounts for 40.4%, between 41 to 59 accounts for 42.2%, above 60 years old accounts for 16.7%. For the education level, people’s highest education is elementary school and did not fill accounts for 8% of the total number of surveyed, middle school and high school accounts for 37.8%, college or above accounted accounts for 54.2%. For the occupation, workers accounts for 36.7%, white-collar cadres/teacher/doctor accounts for 22.9%, farmers accounts for 5.4%, retiree is occupied of 8.4%, floating population accounts for 6.9%, ones did not fill accounts for 1.3%. 213. The comprehensive statistics of five cities public participation questionnaire indicates that, in the investigation: i). 98.9% of the respondents think that the implementation of this project is good since this project will improve the city tap water coverage, solve the problem that the edge parts of the city’s lower water supply pressure problem, improve urban tap water quality, provides the public health, reduce the leakage rate (reducing pipe repair impact on the residents and traffic), and save water resources. ii). 41.4% of the investigators said that engineering construction, especially the urban pipeline construction, will affect the traffic, 28.7% of people think that noise is the major impact during the construction; at the same time, 10.9% of the investigators think that construction dust is the main impact. 15.3% of the total said construction has no impact at all. The data indicates that the public concerned about mostly is the impact of the project construction to transportation, followed by dust and noise. In addition, there are some investigators think that the construction may cause stopping of water supply, which may affect their daily life. iii). 95.6% of the public understand meaning of construction project; 67.6% of the total has concerns on pipe construction nearby. It suggests that though the public dislike the construction activities, the vast majority of the public understands the advantages after then. iv). In response to the nuisance phenomenon arising during construction, 50.2% of the public choose to report to the contractor, 22.5% chose to report to the water company, 31.3% chose to complain to the local environmental protection bureau and supervision organization. It indicates that in the process of construction, contact and complaint information of contractor, the owner and the regulators should be released in the eye- catching place to provide the public of convenience to complaint and claim; v). In the selection of construction duration, 17.8% of the total chose a week, 24.0% of people chose the half a month, 29.1% chose a month, 21.8% chose 3 months, 5.4% of people choose for half a year, another 1.8% said doesn't matter. Investigators who choose within three months accounts for 92.7%. It suggests that the majority of the public want to shorten the construction duration as far as possible. vi). 97.1% of the public expressed support for the project, another 2.9% said doesn't matter. It indicates that the project is supported by the majority of the public. 214. The opinions of the other investigators include: i) hope to project completed as soon as possible, shorten the construction duration; ii) hope that through the construction of this project, water quality of water supply would get great improvement; iii) want to decrease frequency and duration the water supply cutting off, time, especially in the summer, to reduce the impact on residents' life; iv) hope to strengthen the engineering quality, prolong the service life of pipelines and reduce the repeated excavation construction. 215. At the forums, some residents also question the cost of water supply reconstruction in residential area, as well as the water source and water quality. In addition, they also asked about problems such as tap water price. For residents' concerns, EIA units and water company representatives provided answers. As for water supply safety, water company representatives made explanation from aspects as tap water production, water quality monitoring, water transportation and distribution, secondary pump station. 216. After public participation, five EIA units reported public opinions to water companies and design institute (FSR unit), corresponding environmental impact mitigation measures are added in the revision of the FSR and the EIA report, including: 1) length of pipeline construction excavation each time not more than 300 m, take sections to construct, block road to recovery to shorten the construction period, reduce the impact;2) using site sprinkler, transport vehicles covering, the site temporary storage covering of earthmoving and construction materials to control construction dust;3) set up the site temporary wall, control the construction time (8:00- 18:00) to reduce noise;4) during pipeline construction, use water supply dispatching management and the valve control to reduce the frequency and duration of water supply cutting off, and send notice to the residential area 48 hours before the construction. 217. Shenyang project scale is wide and involves a large population, it covers the whole urban area. Shenyang EIA units conducted 8 social investigations, 8 copies of answers are received, including religious institutions Nanguan Catholic Church in Shenyang, Shenyang Chemical Industry Research Institute, and five commercial institutions. According to the nature of the project, business consulting surveys conducted mainly choose the food service industry, the conclusion is as follows: i). two individual businesses objected to this project construction, which accounts for 25% of the total number of surveyed, the main reason is that they worry about water supply cutting off will affect its business; ii). Shenyang Nanguan Catholic Church expressed that they understand the objective and necessity of the project, they hope that the project construction period to avoid the Catholic Easter and large religious festivals to prohibit traffic congestion nearby; iii). 75% of investigated institutions showed support to this project. 218. For the appeal, water company representative said they would try to ensure the water supply to commercial businesses along the street during the day, in order to reduce the impact on businesses. It is determined the date of the construction to avoid the Catholic Easter, the Holy Spirit as well as the Virgin Ascensiontide religious holiday (April 1, May 22 and August 15). EIA units have reported the information Shenyang Water Company and Design Institute, the construction of the pipeline will be conduct during September to October of 2018 to reduce the influence of the Catholic Church. X-3 Additional information disclosure and public consultation for Gaizhou adjusted project 219. After the World Bank project pre-appraisal in November 2016, Gaizhou project was adjusted due to the water source issue of Shimen Reservoir. The subproject was changed from original construction of 50,000 m3/d WSP, with the raw water from the reservoir to directly purchasing clean water from the existing Yingkou Guotun WSP, So that about 1km changed water transmission pipeline will pass the villages of Jiajia and Gujiazi, therefor the addition public consultation needed to be conducted. 220. The information disclosure. The information for the project adjustment was posted on the website of Gaizhou municipal government on 3rd May 2017 (http://www.gaizhou.gov.cn/newsinfo.php?id=7324), the information posted include the contents of project, proposed environmental impacts mitigation measures, as well as the methods and ways of the public consultation.

The implementation practice is formulated in order to protect the ecological environment near the construction site, construction personnel's health and life security, improve the work environment for construction workers, prevent water loss and soil erosion during construction, and the avoid pollution to the environment and all kinds of diseases. 2. This chapter puts forward the environmental protection measures that shall be taken by the contractor during construction, it mainly include the environmental management of construction site, dust pollution and harmful gas emissions control, water pollution control of municipal solid waste, noise control, solid waste control, soil erosion and water loss control and etc.. i). In the contractor's construction organization design, there should be the effective measures to prevent pollution to the atmosphere, water, noise, solid waste, and the to avoid water loss and soil erosion and improve environmental sanitation. ii). In the process of construction, the environmental protection measures should be carried out in construction organization design to protect the air, surface water, sound environment and ecological environment quality, satisfy the requirement of functional zones, and accept the supervision from the environment supervision and management institutions. iii). The construction site must establish environmental protection, environmental sanitation management and inspection system, and should keep inspection record. iv). The contractor should take effective occupational disease prevention measures, provide necessary protective equipment to workers, physical examination and training should be provided to personnel engaged in the occupational-disease- inductive work on a regular basis (at least once a year). v). The construction works should be combined with seasonal characteristics, the contractor should make good organization on workers' diet health cooling and warm, and take effective measures to prevent gas poisoning, epidemic prevention, etc. vi). Trainings and assessment of construction personnel should include laws and regulations on environmental protection, environmental sanitation. vii). According to laws and regulations, the contractor should formulate the public health emergency contingency plans in construction site. 3. Construction site layout and temporary facilities. The scope of construction site include construction area, office area and construction staff living zones. i). The construction area should be divided from office and living area, corresponding isolation measures should be taken to ensure that cleaning and order in entire construction area. ii). The construction area and living area shall be equipped with corresponding environmental protection facilities or the environmental impact reduction measures, such as dust, noise control measures in construction area and etc. iii). The construction site entrances should be marked with the contractor and supervision company name or logo. In the obvious places, project information board shall be set up, and institutional board should also be set up include information on safety production, fire control, environmental protection and civilized construction. iv). If the construction needs to interrupt municipal services (including water, electricity, telephone, Internet and public transit, etc.), notices should be posted at least five days earlier to inform the affected residents and enterprises, and indicate the beginning and ending time of service interruption. v). It is strictly prohibited to set dormitory within unfinished buildings. vi). Temporary facilities shall all be removed within month of construction project completion. 4. Operation condition and environmental safety i). The construction site must adopt closed color-steel fence with height not less than 2.5 m, 3 m in sensitive area. ii). The construction site should set up the bulletin board to show site layout and safety production, fire control, environmental protection and civilized construction system, as well as the public emergency treatment chart. iii). The construction unit should take protective measures to ensure the safety of adjacent buildings, structures and construction project safety and underground pipeline safety. iv). During construction, hard security protection measures should be taken to the peripheral pedestrian street, entrance/exit, while lighting indicating devices shall be set up at night. v). Eye-catching safety warning marks shall be set up near the construction site entrances and exits, the construction hoisting machinery, temporary electricity facilities, scaffolding and access gangway and other dangerous parts. Safety warning signs must be in line with national standards. vi). In different stages of construction and when season, climate and environment changes, corresponding safety technical measures should be taken to the construction site to achieve safe civilization construction conditions. vii). The firefighting equipment should be properly maintain, piled up obstacles will not be set to escape way. 5. Pollution control implementation procedures. 6. Dust control: The main sources of dust include road traffic, construction site, building materials, earthwork stack, earthwork, waste residue, construction waste , transportation process, the original road demolition, concrete and mortar mixing works. According to the dust pollution source, this procedure put forward the following dust pollution control measures: i). The bare ground in construction site should use sprinkler to suppress dust. ii). Materials should be piled up tightly within the construction site and reduce material surface area. iii). The materials that are easy to float in the sky or with fine particles should be sealed storage, handling shade measures should be taken during loading and unloading. iv). The earth should be gathered stacking, concentrated pile up of earth should be covered, curing and other measures. Excavated soil with pile location should be calculated balance ahead of construction, or take earthwork resource allocation between adjacent construction site to make the most of the original soil backfill, maintain a balance between excavation and fill earthwork quantity. v). Transportation of earthwork and construction waste residue must use closed transportation vehicles. vi). If the construction will use ready-mixed concrete and ready-mixed mortar, the construction site shall not set mixing plant. vii). The commercial concrete and mortar should be bought from qualified concrete enterprise with environmental protection facilities. viii). When it is windy weather with more than Grade Four, earthwork backfilling, transshipment and other construction activities producing dust pollution should not be taken undertaken. 7. Harmful gas emissions control: During project construction, the harmful gas is mainly from construction machinery and transport vehicle emissions, in order to control gas pollution, the procedures proposed emission control measures are as follows: i). The construction site shall strictly prohibited incinerate all kinds of waste. ii). The construction vehicles, machinery and equipment should be regularly maintained to keep good condition, the gas discharged should comply with national exhaust emission standards. 8. Water pollution control: During construction, waste water mainly generates from construction wastewater, workers’ domestic sewage, and water pollution caused by crossing the river, of which, the construction waste water generates from the hydrostatic test and disinfection washing, etc. Aiming at the above-mentioned waste water, the proposed emission control measures include: i). For scattered project construction sites, domestic sewage should existing public health facilities, after preprocessing, it should be discharged into the municipal sewage pipe network. It is prohibitive to discharge domestic sewage in scattered places. ii). For wastewater generated in water pressure test and washing disinfection, although it is clean water, the direct emission to trenches also can cause certain pollution of soil, the EIA requires discharge it to municipal sewage pipe network nearby. Due to specific project construction time and places, all the pipe sections are scattered, this kind of wastewater will be discharged at different position into the urban sewage pipe network for many times, it will not challenge wastewater treatment plant. iii). The crossing way will adopt drawn tube and pipe jacking construction methods to reduce pollutants during construction, especially the suspension effect on the river. 9. Noise control: Construction noise pollution mainly generated by the construction machinery and transport vehicles, the impact is around the construction site and both sides of roadways. According to the characteristics of noise pollution in small construction project, the proposed emission control measures are listed as follows: i). The reasonable arrangement of construction plan: it is essential to formulate scientific construction plan to avoid using large number of high noise equipment at the same time. In addition, the construction equipment with large noise, strong impact and vibration should be scheduled during the daytime, and should be prohibited during night (22:00 to 6:00 the next day). ii). Reasonable construction site layout: it should make reasonable arrangement of construction plan and method. Scattered machinery equipment arrangement is an appropriate way to avoid too many power equipment settled in the same place resulting in high local sound level. iii). Equipment sound level reduction 1) Select equipment with low, such as hydraulic machinery instead of fuel oil, vibrorammer instead of high-frequency vibrator, high noise machinery install silencer; conduct maintenance work to mechanical equipment everyday; 2) exhaust muffler can be installed to fixed, digging and earth moving equipment, such as excavator, bulldozer, etc.;3) for equipment that doesn’t use, it should be shut down immediately, transport vehicles entering the site should be slow down and avoid horning. iv). Establish temporary noise barrier: set up temporary silencing plate sound barrier to high noise equipment around acoustic sensitive areas, sound barriers should be higher than the ground by more than 1.2 m, width than machines working area by more than 2 m to guarantee the construction noise emissions is lower than standard. v). For the transport vehicles entering the construction site, the vehicle speed should be less than 20 km/ hour, it is strictly prohibited to horn. In addition to the above noise reduction measures, it is important to establish good community relations with companies and residents along. Companies and residents who will be impacted by the construction should be noticed before operation, and inform them of construction measures to reduce noise to get common understanding. To companies and residents that are greatly influenced by the construction, appropriate compensation should be provided. In addition, during construction, hotline telephone should be set up to accept noise nuisance complaints, and make corresponding treatment. 10. Waste control: During construction, solid waste can be generated from construction and domestic waste, among them, construction waste is the main source. The main materials include soil, sediment, scattered mortar and concrete, masonry and concrete debris, reinforced concrete pile head, all kinds of packaging materials and other wastes. In view of the project construction, the control measures are listed as following: i). For domestic waste, fixed-point methods should be adopted to set up special container to collect, and keep cleaning every day on time. ii). According to different construction time and location, choose the nearest building construction site to transport construction soil to use as filling or greening earth. iii). Sandstone, building materials, steel products, packaging materials can be recycled and timely cleaned. 11. Soil and water loss control: Because this project is all located in the urban plain areas, as long as strengthening management during construction, soil and water loss can be reduced greatly. i). The construction site should be pay attention to reasonable piled earth, it is better to set apart with certain distance from the sewers and river, construction materials and digging soil that is not timely discarded should be covered during heavy rain and wind. ii). The excavation should try to avoid the rainy season. The excavated exposed surface should shorten the exposure time to reduce water and soil loss. iii). Drainage ditch should be excavated near the construction site to induce ground water in site. XII. Appendix 2 Emergency Procedures When Cultural Relic Found During Construction 1. No historical relics were found in five cities in the project construction area. But water supply pipeline project include excavation, which should pay attention to the presence of underground cultural relics. Once cultural relics are found, one should immediately notify the local cultural relic’s protection department, and protect the scene in a timely manner. The construction can be continued after the cultural relic’s department treatment. 2. According to PRC Cultural Relics Protection Law (Oct.28 2002) Article 32, it is regulated that in construction or agricultural production, when cultural relics are found by any unit or individual, one shall protect the scene and immediately report to the local administrative department of cultural relics. After receiving the report, if no special circumstances, cultural relics administrative departments should get to the scene within 24 hours, and put forward handling opinions within seven days. The cultural relics administrative departments may report to the local government to notify the public security department to help protect the scene; when important cultural relics are found, the department shall immediately report to the state council cultural relics administrative department, who shall issue handling opinions within 15 days after the report received. In accordance with the preceding paragraph, cultural relics found shall be owned by the state, no unit or individual shall plunder, privately distribute or hiding. 3. For cultural relics accidentally discovered during construction, the management requirement include: i). If cultural relics are found during construction, the construction activity should immediately stop, the on-site personnel should protect the scene and not dispose without authorization, and immediately report to the local cultural relics management department. ii). After opinions are carried out by the cultural relics management department, based on the comments that is issued, the construction unit should develop construction scheme for cultural relics sections, and restart the construction activity after the cultural relics department’s consent. Before the end of the archaeological excavations, no unit or individual shall not continue any construction or production activities. No unit or individual shall plunder, privately distribute, or hide the founded cultural relic. 4. The procedure after cultural relics found during construction is shown in the Figure APP2-1.
