Bosna-S Oil Services Co. 2 URBAN INFRASTRUCTURE AND SERVICE DELIVERY PROJECT Environmental Framework and Screening Document Executive Summary The Urban Infrastructure & Service Delivery Project includes five components: Component 1. Institutional Strengthening ($480,000); Component 2. Urban Management Development Plans and Investments ($2.42 million); Component 3. Investments for Improved Efficiency ($14.53 million); Component 4. Engineering Services ($300,000); and Component 5. Project Implementation ($700,000). The objectives of the Urban Infrastructure & Service Delivery Project are threefold: (i) improve the availability, quality and reliability of basic municipal services and in particular, water supply and sanitation; (ii) strengthen the ability of Cantonal and municipal governments to prioritize and improve management and institutional efficiency capacity for infrastructure development by developing Urban Management Development Plans; and (iii) where possible, foster deeper social cohesion for though improvements in overall living conditions. In accordance with World Bank policies and procedures (OP/BP/GP 4.01, Environmental Assessment) the project has been assigned Category "B". For each of the four subproject investments identified before appraisal a separate Environmental Management Plan (EMP) was prepared in accordance with the World Bank regulations, submitted to the World Bank, and disclosed publicly. Each EMP includes a: (i) mitigation plan, (ii) monitoring plan, (iii) implementation schedule, (iv) institutional arrangements for effective environmental management, and (v) a record of the public consultation. The selected towns for subproject investments in the first phase are Banja Luka, Cazin, Lukavac and Posusje. In all selected towns, water losses in the water networks are very high; therefore investment in leak detection and training is one of the key priorities. Another common priority for reducing water losses is the rehabilitation of corroded steel pipelines, which are severely deteriorated. Other priorities are individual for each town. For Banja Luka, the highest priority is the rehabilitation of the water treatment plant in order to maintain adequate supply and improve water quality. For Lukavac, it is rehabilitation of the water treatment plant and the replacement of facilities of the water source in order to eliminate the water shortage and improve water quality. For Cazin, the highest priority is the water supply system to the eastern part of the town where there is neither safe nor adequate water supply. For Posusje, the highest priority is to end the water shortage, especially in summer, and have proper water treatment. The rehabilitated gravity pipeline from the Tribistovo Dam and the treatment plant would not only solve the problems of Posusje, but also bring relief for the adjacent communities of Grude, Siroki Brijeg and Imotski. In each of the project areas no significant threats to the environment, or environmental impacts have been identified. Most of the environmental impacts deal with the construction works, or issues such as waste management and wastewater releases during operation. During public discussions and consultations it was concluded that there is no major opposition to the project, and that the projects benefits with regards to improved living conditions and efficient natural resource use are far more significant. The institutional strengthening plan includes training and equipment procurement, which were identified as the most significant. Subproject investments identified after project appraisal shall be subject to an environmental management process framework that is consistent with both entity and World Bank environmental policies, procedures and regulations. This framework, entitled "Environmental Screening and Evaluation Procedures" is an integral part of Bosna-S Oil Services Co. 3 URBAN INFRASTRUCTURE AND SERVICE DELIVERY PROJECT Environmental Framework and Screening Document this report and shall be incorporated into the project Operations Manual. This document includes procedures and institutional responsibilities for screening, EA documentation, consultation, disclosure, and implementation of the project specific EMP. Institutional capacity for all organizations identified with designated responsibility for implementation of EMPs and the Environmental Screening and Evaluation Procedures was examined. A program of institutional strengthening (primarily training and monitoring equipment) is incorporated into the project to assure appropriate capacity for successful implementation.

Background 1.1 Project Overview The objectives of the Urban Infrastructure & Service Delivery Project are threefold: (i) improve the availability, quality and reliability of basic municipal services and in particular, water supply and sanitation; (ii) strengthen the ability of Cantonal and municipal governments to prioritize and improve management and institutional efficiency capacity for infrastructure development by developing Urban Management Development Plans; and (iii) where possible, foster deeper social cohesion for though improvements in overall living conditions. The Urban Infrastructure & Service Delivery project includes five components. Sub- components identified as priorities for investment, and their potential impact on the environment are described in more detail within this Report, and the Environmental Management Plans (EMP). Component 1. Institutional Strengthening ($480,000) This component would finance: financial training on efficiency and cost recovery for institutional strengthening and capacity building; drafting of Business Plans for each Utility company due in October of each year, starting with 2004; training on Urban Management Development Plans; a study of the institutional capacity and role/responsibility of the different levels of Government; and other appropriate capacity building. Component 2. Urban Management Development Plans and Investments ($2.42 million) This component would finance: Urban Management Development Plans for select areas based on an urban database and information system and a strategic urban planning process based on more effective planning, prioritization and implementation. The component would also finance investments in selected service sectors based on the conclusions of the strategic planning process. The urban management component would target the following areas: Banja Luka, Livno, Mostar, Sarajevo, Tuzla and Srebenica. Component 3. Investments for Improved Efficiency ($14.53 million) This component would finance: least-cost priority investments based on system improvement, lowering energy and related investments to water supply and sanitation utilities. Because of the vast institutional capacity and financial differences in the water supply and sanitation Utilities, the Utilities would be grouped in three categories. Group A, selected up front would consist of four Utilities that have undergone financial, institutional, technical, environment and social work during project preparation. These four Utilities would be expected to become financially viable and cover all operating and maintenance by 2008. Group A Utilities include: Banja Luka, Cazin, Lukavac and Posusje. Bosna-S Oil Services Co. 8 URBAN INFRASTRUCTURE AND SERVICE DELIVERY PROJECT Environmental Framework and Screening Document Group B would be selected during the first year of project implementation. Group B Utilities would be subjected to the same preparation work undertaken by Group A, but would be expected to reach financial viability and cover all operation and maintenance by 2009. (The number of Utilities in Group B would be determined once final project cost and donor co-financing confirmed.) Group C would target areas lacking social cohesion or badly affected during the postwar period. For financial, social and economic reasons, it is unreasonable to assume that these Utilities could reach financial viability during project implementation. As a result, Group C would be provided with small amounts of International Development Association (IDA) credit in addition to grant financing. Group C utilities are Stolac, Srebrenica and Vares. Component 4. Engineering Services ($300, 000) This component would finance: planning and design; engineering for the preparation of final designs and bidding documents; and assistance with procurement and supervision of construction for investments. Component 5. Project Implementation ($700, 000) This component would finance: implementation of the project, incremental operating costs related to all relevant expenses, salaries, audits; guidance and training for Utilities and local government on project implementation; and a communication strategy to include capacity building. 1.2 Environmental Impacts In accordance with World Bank policies and procedures (OP/BP/GP 4.01, Environmental Assessment) the project has been assigned Category "B". For each of the four subproject investments identified before appraisal a separate Environmental Management Plan (EMP) was prepared in accordance with the World Bank regulations. submitted to the World Bank, and disclosed publicly in the Bosnian language in the Each EMP includes a: (i) mitigation plan, (ii) monitoring plan, (iii) implementation schedule, (iv) institutional arrangements for effective environmental management, and (v) a record of the public consultation. Chief issues identified during construction included: dust, noise, engine exhausts, disruption to traffic and disposal of non-hazardous construction debris and management of asbestos waste. During operation, the main issues included storage and handling of hazardous chlorination chemicals, and disposal of sludge arising from water purification and wastewater treatment. The EMPs were all in full compliance with environmental requirements of the entities and the World Bank. Subproject investments identified after project appraisal would be subject to an environmental management process framework that would be consistent with both entity and World Bank environmental policies, procedures and regulations. This framework, entitled "Environmental Screening and Evaluation Procedures" that is an integral part of this report and that shall be incorporated into the project Operations Manual. This document includes procedures and institutional responsibilities for screening, EA documentation, consultation, disclosure, and implementation of the project specific EMP. Bosna-S Oil Services Co. 9 URBAN INFRASTRUCTURE AND SERVICE DELIVERY PROJECT Environmental Framework and Screening Document Institutional capacity for all organizations identified with designated responsibility for implementation of EMPs and the Environmental Screening and Evaluation Procedures was examined. A modest program of institutional strengthening (primarily training and monitoring equipment) has been incorporated into the project to assure appropriate capacity for successful implementation. 1.3 Need for the Project By restoring and improving access to safe water for a large portion of the Bosnian population, the proposed project would contribute towards achieving one of the key Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). The project is also fully consistent with the objectives of the 2003 Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper (PRSP) and the Country Assistance Strategy (CAS) FY05-07. The latter identifies "investments in essential poverty-related infrastructure and basic services" as a key priority for the country's development and one of the three main pillars of the Bank's assistance program in the coming years. Raising the quality and reliability of municipal services, and improving the functioning and livelihood of towns and cities through Urban Management Development Plans would also be critical factors in helping create a better investment climate for private sector development and job creation, which is the second pillar of the CAS strategy. 1.4 Objectives of the Environmental Assessment The objectives of this Environmental Assessment are to: a.) Provide an Environmental Management Plan for each of the four identified subprojects. In this manner the negative environmental impacts of each of the subprojects are identified, and proposals for their mitigation are included. Additionally, an environmental monitoring plan is followed by the analysis of the current institutional needs and requirements. b.) Provide the "Environmental Screening and Evaluation Procedures" that shall be included in the Operations Manual of the Project. The ESEP shall be used as an environmental screening tool for subprojects identified in the later stages of the Project Implementation. The main objective of the ESEP is to provide procedures that would satisfy both, the BiH and World Bank requirements for environmental screening, in a unified environmental screening procedure, specific to this Project. Bosna-S Oil Services Co. 10 URBAN INFRASTRUCTURE AND SERVICE DELIVERY PROJECT Environmental Framework and Screening Document 2. BiH Administrative Description The design and implementation for the Urban Infrastructure and Service Delivery (UISD) Project for Bosnia and Herzegovina requires working with a political structure that includes two separate administrative structures under an overarching "state umbrella." After signing of the Dayton Peace Accord (14. Dec. 1995 in Dayton, Ohio, USA) Bosnia- Herzegovina administratively was divided into two entities: Federation of Bosnia Herzegovina (FBiH) and Republika Srpska (RS). Another region of Bosnia- Herzegovina is the district of Brcko, which is independent of both entities. FBiH is made up of 10 cantons and 80 municipalities, with separate administrations. RS does not have cantons but has seven regions and 61 municipalities. At the State level, the Ministry of Civil Works and Communications, would come the closest to having some relationship to urban services, but in practice all environmental laws in BiH are produced, approved, and implemented at the Entity level. In FBiH, environmental protection is decentralized to the cantonal level. In RS, environmental protection is the responsibility of the entity level. The division of administrative responsibilities is often complex and overlapping. For example, in the Federation, the Ministry of Physical Planning and Environment is responsible for environmental management policy and legislation while other Ministries also play a role for related services including: Ministry of Agriculture, Water Utility and Forestry for wastewater discharge; Ministry of Health for clinical waste management and the Ministry of Energy, Mining & Industry for industrial waste management. This structure of organization responsibility is similar at the Cantonal level in FBiH. The Cantonal Ministries are largely responsible for policy and legislation in their respective fields. In RS, there is no Canton structure but the organization of services in the municipalities closely resembles that of the Federation. There is also an Inter-Entity Environmental Steering Committee that was established in July 1998, made up of Government officials, professionals and academics, to coordinate environmental policy in harmonizing environmental laws between the Entities. The unevenness in organizational structures, evident from the above description, along with political realities, has led to huge inefficiencies in the provision of urban infrastructure and service delivery. This project will introduce a new approach to service delivery, which addresses the institutional, financial, technical and environmental aspects of urban strategic planning. Bosna-S Oil Services Co. 1 URBAN INFRASTRUCTURE AND SERVICE DELIVERY PROJECT Environmental Framework and Screening Document a PART 1: ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLANS Bosna-S Oil Services Co. 12 URBAN INFRASTRUCTURE AND SERVICE DELIVERY PROJECT Environmental Framework and Screening Document Introduction For the four subprojects identified as preliminary subprojects (classified within this project as Group A subprojects), to be financed within this Project, Environmental Management Plans have been prepared. The selected towns are Banja Luka, Cazin, Lukavac and Posusje. In all selected towns, water losses in the water networks are still very high, therefore investment in leak detection and training is the key priority. Another common priority for reducing water losses is the rehabilitation of corroded steel pipelines, which are severely deteriorated. Other priorities are individual for each town. For Banja Luka, the highest priority would be the rehabilitation of the water treatment plant in order to maintain adequate supply and improve water quality. For Lukavac, it would be rehabilitation of the water treatment plant and the replacement of facilities of the water source in order to eliminate the water shortage and improve water quality. For Cazin, the highest priority would be the water supply system to the eastern part of the town where there is neither safe nor adequate water supply. For Posusje, the highest priority would be to end the water shortage, especially in summer, and have proper water treatment. The rehabilitated gravity pipeline from the Tribistovo Dam and the treatment plant would not only solve the problems of Posusje, but also bring relief for the adjacent communities of Grude, Siroki Brijeg and Imotski. The EMPs contain the following: - mitigation plan, - monitoring plan, - implementation schedule, - institutional requirements, - institutional arrangements for effective environmental management, - record of the public consultation. Each of these subprojects has an overall positive impact on both the environment and the society. Each of the water supply systems shall be improved or rehabilitated in order to increase quantities of water supplied and improve the overall water quality. By meeting these aims the project would also protect the health and welfare of the general population, or in cases where the water supply is expanded, the living conditions of each inhabitant would be improved. Furthermore, through the implementation of these subprojects, an emphasis would be placed on more rational use of natural resources, through issues such as reduction of water losses within the system, or improved and more efficient capture of water at the source. However, in this document, an Environmental Management Plan (EMP) is provided for each of the subprojects. The EMP address possible environmental issues, which are, for the most part, minor or something that would be most likely included in the project implementation itself. Within the EMP the preliminary step was to identify possible negative environmental impacts and the manner in which these issues could be mitigated. Following the mitigation plan, a monitoring plan was provided where monitoring of parameters and issues identified in the mitigation plan are provided. These mitigation measures need to be monitored in addition to the parameters that the water supply company would conduct monitoring for as part of their working routine. All equipment and training listed in the monitoring and mitigation plans, that are not a part of the equipment that would be usually procured for this type of project is listed additionally in the institutional requirements for each of the subprojects. Bosna-S Oil Services Co. 13 URBAN INFRASTRUCTURE AND SERVICE DELIVERY PROJECT Environmental Framework and Screening Document Environmentally Sound Clauses for Construction Works Prior to commencement of all activities foreseen within this Project, it is important to note that the majority of possible environmental impacts would occur during the construction phases. Hence, it is valuable to consider the following clauses and guidelines during construction operations: - Compliance with general national environmental regulations, - Protection of natural habitats and protected / sensitive areas, - Protection of cultural and historic monuments, - Obeying precautionary measures with respect to mass graves and mine fields, - Adequate disposal of construction and excavation wastes, - Minimizing impact of presence of construction crews on site, such as location of construction camps, water requirements and sources, increased traffic to location, location of dumping and other construction sites, etc. - Minimizing damages that could be incurred onto public or private properties during construction, - Adequate management of waste and wastewater generated within the construction camp, - Controlled access to construction site. Additionally, it is important to note that all of the issues listed within the EMP as responsibility of the construction or decommission contractor shall be specified within the construction bid documents. Project A: Banja Luka Project Area Description Banja Luka is located in the northwestern portion of BiH. Banja Luka is the largest and major city of Republika Srpska, with approximately 250,000 inhabitants. The public water supply system in Banja Luka is over 95 years old with the major water source being the Vrbas river. The amount of water supplied is not sufficient and shall lead to water shortages if no additional water quantities are provided. The Vrbas river upstream of the city is not the bottleneck that may lead to the shortages, but the issue is the water treatment plant and the quality of water released from this plant following treatment. This project would assist in providing funds for a first phase of rehabilitation of the existing treatment plant. Final design for the plant rehabilitation is expected to be available in October 2004. The proposed investment for Banja Luka is US$ 4.37 million.

MINUTES OF CONSULTATION WITH LOCAL NGOs AND PROJECT-AFFECTED GROUPS IN BANJA LUKA The Draft EA Report was publicly disclosed in the premises of Banja Luka Municipality and on the internet site of the Federal Ministry of Physical Planning and Environment. Public consultation was held on April 21st, 2004 in the Municipality Building of Banja Luka. The consultation date and place were announced in Glas Srpske, a major daily newspaper, on 17.04.2004. Besides newspaper announcements, important interested parties such as representatives of the local neighborhood communities and NGOs were contacted and invited by the municipal authorities. The list of those present at the meeting is given in Appendix A. The meeting was covered by the local media including Banja Luka TV and major local newspapers. The schedule of this public consultation meeting was as follows: - Introduction (by representatives of City of Banja Luka, KJP Vodovod Banja Luka - local water supply company, and Consultant) - Project description (detailed presentation by KJP Vodovod Banja Luka) - Environmental aspects of the Project (Consultant and KJP Vodovod Banja Luka) - Questions and concerns, discussion session This meeting lasted 1.5 hours and was concluded with the following comments, suggestions and decisions: * The representative of "Eko-Banja Luka", a local environmental NGO, expressed his satisfaction with the approach to this project, in particular "Vodovod"'s commitment to implementing specific project related environmental protection measures. * Ljupko Lovric, president of Local Neighborhood Council "Srpske Toplice" raised the question of an illegal dump site currently present in proximity of the project area. Since no appropriate waste collection containers are available in the surrounding neighborhoods, people tend to drop various household wastes on this location. Mr. Lovric was concerned with the possibility of a consequent water pollution. Management of "Vodovod" and a representative of City of Banja Luka stressed that this problem of illegal waste disposal will be eliminated during Project implementation. * Prof. Dr. Branislav Nedovic of "Ecos Banja Luka", a local environmental NGO, addressed some issues of water quality control and Vrbas river protection. Vrbas river is the water source for Banja Luka and it is therefore necessary to prevent any upstream pollutions, direct or through the tributaries. Although this was not Bosna-S Oil Services Co. 26 URBAN INFRASTRUCTURE AND SERVICE DELIVERY PROJECT Environmental Framework and Screening Document specifically related to the Project implementation, both Vodovod and City of Banja Luka representatives expressed their continuous commitment to working jointly with all parties concerned in order to ensure appropriate protection of Vrbas river. * A representative of Rafting Club "Kanjon" Banja Luka raised the question of water supply cut offs during Project implementation. "Vodovod" management stated that only minor cut offs are expected and these will be announced in a timely manner and scheduled in best possible way as to minimize adverse effect on population supplied with water. He also suggested that the authorities should make efforts to ensure that any companies/installations in the Vrbas upstream area adopt environmentally sound principles and thus contribute to water protection. Branka Trninic, technical director of "Vodovod", said that a regulation on Vrbas river protection is currently under preparation. * Suzana Krcmar of local neighborhood Karanovac stated that mainly positive effects are expected in relation to the Project implementation. She confirmed that local population is not aware of any cultural-historical heritage items, ordnances or mass graves in the Project area. * Zekija Haznadar, ex member of "Vodovod" Management Board, addressed the importance of proper WTP sludge management. In response to this, "Vodovod" repeated an explanation from their Project presentation stressing that a proper sludge management system is planned, despite the fact that only small amounts of non-hazardous sludge from water treatment are expected. It was also clarified that any effluent water from VvTP will actually be of better quality than the source water. * Miladin Trbic of Institute of Protection and Ecology said that it is essential that all parties involved need to be committed to ensuring a better environment and services for the inhabitants of Banja Luka. Bosna-S Oil Services Co. 27 URBAN INFRASTRUCTURE AND SERVICE DELIVERY PROJECT Environmental Framework and Screening Document Project B: Cazin Project Area Description Cazin is located in the Una - Sana Canton of FBiH, in the northwestern portion of BiH. The municipality of Cazin, with approximately 64,000 inhabitants is the most populated municipality in BiH. Some 46,000 inhabitants are supplied with drinking water through the public water supply system. The whole of Cazin - East has no proper water supply and is experiencing water shortages along with water quality problems. In addition, the utility wants to reduce water losses, which amount to 55%. More than half of the water losses occur through physical deficiencies in the water supply system. Project would finance leak detection and leak repair works, the rehabilitation of a old corroded/leaking steel pipelines and the establishment of a proper water supply system for Cazin - East. Cazin - East would rehabilitate pipelines, reservoirs, main pumping station and submersible well pumps. Final designs are already under preparation with local financing. The proposed investment for Cazin is US$ 3.19 million.

Bosna-S Oil Services Co. 41 URBAN INFRASTRUCTURE AND SERVICE DELIVERY PROJECT Environmental Framework and Screening Document Project C: Lukavac Project Area Description Lukavac is located in the Tuzla Canton of FBiH, in the northern part of BiH. The entire Canton, with a primariy industrial orientation, is faced with water shortages of water, which is explicitly expressed in certain areas of Lukavac. Municipality of Lukavac has 53,000 inhabitants, while approximately half of the population receives water from the public water supply system. Their water losses amount to 35-40%. Measures to reduce water losses and pumping costs have high priority. Same priority would be assigned to the rehabilitation of the water treatment plant and of the water source, the wells and collection pipelines. This would secure and/or improve the supply to the town and reduce the very high power cost required by the utility. The proposed investment for Lukavac is US$ 2.55 million.

Only in the event that significant air pollution occurs, as a result of generated dust or emissions from equipment, the air quality should be measured. In the event that this occurs, it might be more economically justified to have a lab conduct sampling rather than equipment procurement, due to the nature of sampling, and the short time period over which this sampling and monitoring might occur.

The main task of the PMU is to prepare and carry out financial management, supervision, reporting, and evaluation during the project implementation period. The PMU Director will report to the Minister of Foreign Trade and Economic Relations, while the Director shall report to the Entity Ministry of Environment with regards to environmental issues, reporting and monitoring. In order to ensure focused attention to the project implementation, Project Implementation Teams (PIT) will be created in each implementing utility and canton. The PIT will be responsible for day-to-day implementation of their project and to work closely with the PMU by providing regular reports and documentation. The PITs shall be responsible for environmental mitigation and monitoring during the construction phases. The PIT shall report to the Cantonal ministry and the PMU. The PMU shall in turn report to the Entity Ministry. Following commencement of Project implementation, the environmental reporting shall be conducted by the utility itself, third party or Cantonal inspectorates. These shall report to the Entity ministries. CONSULTATION WITH LOCAL NGOs AND PROJECT-AFFECTED GROUPS - LUKAVAC The Draft Report was publicly disclosed through the website of the Federal Ministry of Physical Planning and Environment in Sarajevo. Additionally, the Report was submitted to the Lukavac municipality. The Director of the Water Supply Co., Mr. Sead Suljic has made appearances at both, the local TV and radio stations prior to the public meeting. Mr. Suljic had a 1-hour call-in session at the local radio station, where callers could call their questions in. Public consultation was held on 20. April 2004 in the Lukavac Public Library / Cultural Hall. This consultation meeting was announced through the Dnevni Avaz newspaper, on April 17-20, 2004 and flyers posted throughout town. Forty one persons attended this meeting, along with representatives of two local NGOs, local radio stations, newspapers and TV stations. Invitations were sent to all interested parties, while a number of stakeholders, including local NGOs were invited individually. The list of those present is available in Appendix C. The schedule of this public consultation meeting was as follows: - Introduction of the Meeting by the Mayor of Lukavac - Technical Introduction of the Project by the Water Supply Co. Manager - Environmental protection related to the project by the Consultant - Questions and concerns, discussion session The meeting lasted 2 hours and was concluded with the following comments, suggestions and decisions: Bosna-S Oil Services Co. 57 URBAN INFRASTRUCTURE AND SERVICE DELIVERY PROJECT Environmental Framework and Screening Document * Head of the Municipal Sector for Public Works had stated that this project is positive for the society, and that the next step should be the development of wastewater collection and treatment in Lukavac. * A member of the City Council has expressed his satisfaction with the project, as well as the other inhabitants of Lukavac. This project shall solve a long-term problem of water shortages, however additional measures need to be conducted for protection of Modrac lake. The lake is not a protected area, as it should be, considering its importance as a water supply source. * A representative of the NGO, "Center for Civil Initiatives" stated that this project is beneficial, as the chain in the water supply will be shortened, once the treatment plant is handed over to the water supply company from the Coke Combine. * A representative of the NGO "Eko-zeleni" commented on a more detailed presentation of the EA study, and the EMPs. The Consultants responded by providing a detailed insight of the different impacts and measures presented in the EMP. * Raif Softic from Rudhem d.o.o. company elaborated on the need to take into account possible water source quality degradation in the rehabilitation of the treatment plant. Furthermore, due to the amount of sediments in the lake water, treatment is necessary which generates significant amounts of sludge. This sludge is non- hazardous and can be used in agriculture, once dehydrated. Otherwise, the sludge can be deposited at the "White Sea" landfill of the Soda factory. * Representatives of the local neighborhoods and other participants also stated that they are not aware of any historical-cultural heritage items, ordnances or mass graves in the Project area. Bosna-S Oil Services Co. 58 URBAN INFRASTRUCTURE AND SERVICE DELIVERY PROJECT Environmental Framework and Screening Document Project D: Posusje Project Area Description Posusje is located in the West-Herzegovina Canton, in the southern portion of BiH. The municipality of Posusje has approximately 17,500 inhabitants. Posusje is situated in a karst, and hence very dry area and is experiencing water shortages, especially during the summer months. The lack of water acts as a highly limiting factor for the development of the whole area. The water source is the Tribistovo Dam accumulation that was constructed in 1992, with its specific purpose to serve as a water source for the region. Furthermore, there is no water treatment plant for this dam water, which is occasionally very turbid. The project would rehabilitate a pipeline length of 4.5 kilometers, (pipe diameter 600 mm ductile iron), gravity pipeline from the dam to the city of Posusje, a water reservoir of 3000m3 and a first stage treatment plant for 100 I/s. Water would not only be provided for Posusje, but also bring relief to the town of Grude, Siroki Brijeg and lmotski. The project has enormous development potentials for the whole area. Final designs are expected to be available in January 2005. The proposed investment for Posusje is US$ 2.55 million.

The main task of the PMU is to prepare and carry out financial management, supervision, reporting, and evaluation during the project implementation period. The PMU Director will report to the Minister of Foreign Trade and Economic Relations, while the Director shall report to the Entity Ministry of Environment with regards to environmental issues, reporting and monitoring. In order to ensure focused attention to the project implementation, Project Implementation Teams (PIT) will be created in each implementing utility and canton. The PIT will be responsible for day-to-day implementation of their project and to work closely with the PMU by providing regular reports and documentation. The PITs shall be responsible for environmental mitigation and monitoring during the construction phase. The PIT shall report to the Cantonal ministry and the PMU. The PMU shall in turn report to the Entity Ministry. Following commencement of Project implementation, the environmental reporting shall be conducted by the utility itself, third party or Cantonal inspectorates. These shall report to the Entity ministries.

Additionally, copies of the Report were made available at the Municipal Offices and the Utility offices in Posusje. Public consultation was held on 21. April 2004 in the municipal/movie hall in Posusje. This consultation meeting was announced through the Slobodna Dalmacija newspaper, which is most frequently read in PosVsje, on April 17-20. 2004. Invitations were sent out using this announcement for all interested parties, while certain parties, such as representatives of NGOs or local authorities were invited individually. There were 45 people present The list of those present is available in Appendix D. The schedule of this public consultation meeting was as follows: - Introduction of the Meeting by the Utility / Water Supply Manager Mr. Manduric. - Project description by Mr. Ivan Beslic, Technical Manager of the Tribistovo Accumulation - Environmental protection related to the project by the Consultant - Questions and concerns, discussion session This meeting lasted 1.5 hours and was concluded with the following comments, suggestions and decisions: * The municipal mayor stated how this project is positive for the region, as it shall solve the problem of water shortages and poor water quality. * Representative of the Cantonal Forest Management Co. expressed how a preliminary environmental assessment should have been done years ago when the pipeline was first constructed. As this pipeline exists, and the project shall encompass its rehabilitation, there are no significant issues regarding the environment at this point. . Mr. Simunovic - Cantonal Inspector and Mr. Predrag Kozul Cantonal Minister of Environment both agreed that the West-Herzegovina Canton has its own Law on Environmental Impact Assessment, and there is a need to conduct a study according to local regulations, not only the World Bank regulations (OP 4.01) which may not be as strict. * Representative of the Tribistovo Accumulation Co. confirmed that the water in the accumulation is leaking over the dam, while the population does not have sufficient water in their homes. This is a waste of natural resources, and with the new pipeline there shall act positively in the conservation of natural resources. * Mr. Simunovic - Cantonal Inspector stated that another immediate measure that needs to be conducted is the construction of wastewater collection, as the wastewater released from Posusje directly affects the down-slope settlement of Grude. * A representative of the City council regards this project as positive and that it shall benefit the local community. Posusje municipality should be praised for being one of the locations for the project. This EA Report is requested by the investor and the local requirements shall also be met. Bosna-S Oil Services Co. 73 URBAN INFRASTRUCTURE AND SERVICE DELIVERY PROJECT Environmental Framework and Screening Document * Representative of the NGO "Progres" The Report is correct and handles all of the phases of the project implementation. None of the mitigation measures are illegal or harmful.

The objective of the project is to improve the quality and reliability of delivery of basic infrastructure services in urban areas thereby prompting significant improvements in the livelihood of the beneficiary population and contributing to improve the prospects for local economic development. The project has been assigned a Category B (in further text "Cat B"). Furthermore, subprojects proposed under the project are very likely to fall under Cat B. Since the actual size, location and nature of some subprojects would be known only after project implementation starts, the environmental process framework and guidelines given in further text have been prepared for those investments/subprojects identified after appraisal. The document will be included in project implementation documents, and will form an integral part of the Operational Manual. This ESEP chapter outline describes the procedures and implementation arrangements for ensuring full consideration of environmental concerns with Bank safeguards. The outline also presents an overview of country regulations and requirements identifying institutional responsibilities for environmental impact assessment and screening procedures as well as compliance with mitigation and monitoring measures for the future subprojects. 2 OVERVIEW OF ENVIRONMENTAL POLICIES AND PROCEDURES OF THE GOVERNMENT OF BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA Environmental management in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BIH) is not institutionalized at the state level, but rather carried out within the organizational structure of the entity governments, i.e. ministries on the entity level that have environmental issues in their portfolios. The responsible ministries are the Ministry of Physical Planning and Environment (FBiH), and Ministry of Physical Planning, Urbanism, Civil Engineering and Ecology (RS). Lower level environmental management is under the responsibility of cantonal ministries in the FBIH and municipalities in RS. Responsibilities of BIH in regards to environmental protection stipulated by international agreements and conventions are within the jurisdiction of the state, i.e. the Council of Ministers (Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Relations, etc.). Recently, both entities drafted new environmental laws that are harmonized with the legislation of the European Union. The new environmental laws are: Law on environmental protection; Law on nature protection; Law on air protection; Law on water protection; Law on waste management; and Law on environmental fund. In addition to environmental laws, several other important laws were also drafted in both entities recently, such as the law on physical planning and the law on construction. Although these laws replaced the existing pre-war laws (focused mostly at urbanism, physical planning and construction), setting a pro-European environmental legislation system, the transformation has not been completed yet, resulting in poor implementation, due to lack of specific secondary legislation as well as due to lack of knowledge and poor enforcement. The new entity laws on environmental protection regulate the area of environmental assessment and the Environmental Permit procedure. These two entity laws are almost identical, and were prepared in accordance with environmental policies of the European Union and international conventions. Permits required by other laws (e.g. waste management permit from the Law on Waste Management, water management permit from the law on water protection) as well as other necessary permits (forestry, agriculture, etc.) are issued together with the Environmental Permit. During preparation and implementation of subprojects, other relevant laws will also need to be reviewed for specific requirements; Law on Concessions, Law on Construction Land, Law on Physical Planning; and Law on Construction. A key requirement of the Law on Environmental Protection, the by-law regulating the EIA and Environmental Permit procedure is currently in the adoption phase in FBiH. A similar by-law is being prepared in RS. The by-law regulates: ............ R...4 Installations and facilities', or significant modifications in existing plants and processes, for which the Entity Ministry2 responsible for environment requires an EIA within the environmental permitting procedure - Cat 3. - Installations and facilities, or significant modifications in existing plants and processes, for which the Entity Ministry responsible for environment shall decide whether an EIA is required during the Environmental Permitting procedure - Cat 11. Installations and facilities which do not require an EIA, and which can be constructed and start operating only if they have obtained an Environmental Permit from the Entity Ministry responsible for environment - Cat 11I. - Installations and facilities which do not require an EIA, and which can be constructed and start operating only if they have obtained an Environmental Permit from the Cantonal Ministry responsible for environment in FBiH/Municipalty in RS - Cat IV. - Content of the EIA Report. - Criteria for Environmental Screening. 3 OVERVIEW OF WORLD BANK ENVIRONMENTAL POLICIES AND PROCEDURES The World Bank has established policies for environmental screening and assessment of projects. All activities financed by the Bank have to be in compliance with local environmental rules and regulations, as well as with environmental policies of the Bank. The Bank requires environmental screening and, when warranted, environmental assessment of activities proposed for Bank financing to help ensure that they are environmentally sound and sustainable. The environmental assessment runs in parallel with the process of designing the activity and implementing it, and the type and its detail depend on nature, scale, and any potential environmental risks. The Bank undertakes environmental screening of each proposed project to determine the appropriate extent and type of EA. The Bank classifies the proposed project into one of four categories, depending on the type, location, sensitivity, and scale of the project and the nature and magnitude of its potential environmental impacts. - Cat A: A proposed project is classified as Cat A if it is likely to have significant adverse environmental impacts that are sensitive, diverse, or unprecedented. These impacts may affect an area broader than the sites or facilities subject to physical works. For a Cat A project, the borrower is responsible for preparing a report, normally an EIA. - Cat B: A proposed project is classified as Cat B if its potential adverse environmental impacts are less adverse than those of Cat A projects. These impacts are site-specific; few if any of them are irreversible; and in most cases mitigatory measures can be designed more readily than for Cat A projects. The scope of EA for a Cat B project may vary from project to project, but it is narrower than that of Cat A EA. - Cat C: A proposed project is classified as Cat C if it is likely to have minimal or no adverse environmental impacts. Beyond screening, no further EA action is required for a Cat C project. Furthermore, the World Bank's exclusion list forbids financing of certain activities and projects. Several items on the exclusion list are directly related to environmental protection: - Production or activities involving harmful or exploitative forms of forced labor/harmful child labor. - Production or trade in any product or activity deemed illegal under host country laws or regulations or international conventions and agreements. - Production or trade in weapons and ammunitions. - Production or trade in alcoholic beverages (excluding beer and wine). - Production or trade in tobacco.

World Bank Safeguard Policies: The World Bank's environmental assessment policy OP 4.01 is considered to be the umbrella policy for the Bank's environmental safeguard policies. These policies are critical to ensuring that potentially adverse environmental and social consequences are identified, minimized, and mitigated. These policies receive particular attention during the project preparation and approval process. The Bank undertakes screening of each proposed project to determine the appropriate extent and type of EA to be undertaken and whether or not the project may trigger other safeguard policies. The Borrower is responsible for any assessment required by the Safeguard Policies, with general advice provided by Bank staff. The safeguard policies and triggers for each policy are given in the following table. Table 1. Safeguard Policies and tri ers Policy Triggers Environmental Assessment If a project is likely to have potential (adverse) environmental risks and impacts in (OP 4.01) its area of influence. Forestry Forest sector activities and other Bank sponsored interventions which have (OP 4.36) potential to impact significantly upon forested areas Involuntary Resettlement (OP Physical relocation and land loss resulting in: (i) relocation or loss of shelter; (ii) 4.12) loss of assets or access to assets; (iii) loss of income sources or means of livelihood, whether or not the affected people must move to another location. Indigenous Peoples (OD 4.20) If there are indigenous peoples in the project area, and potential adverse impacts on indigenous peoples are anticipated, and indigenous peoples are among the intended beneficiaries. Safety of Dams (OP 4.37) If a project involves construction of a large dam (15 m or higher) or a high hazard dam; If a project is dependent upon an existing dam, or dam under construction. Pest Management (OP 4.09) If procurement of pesticides is envisaged; If the project may affect pest management in the way that harm could be done, even though the project is not envisaged to procure pesticides. This includes projects that may (i) lead to substantially increased pesticide use and subsequent increase in health and environmental risk, (ii) maintain or expand present pest management practices that are unsustainable, not based on an IPM approach, and/or pose significant health or environmental risks. Cultural Property (OPN 11.03) The policy is triggered by projects which, prima facie, entail the risk of damaging cultural property (e.g. any project that includes large scale excavations, movement of earth, surficial environmental changes or demolition) Natural Habitats (OP 4.04) The policy is triggered by any project with the potential to cause significant conversion (loss) or degradation of natural habitats whether directly (through construction) or indirectly (through human activities induced by the project). Projects in Disputed Areas The policy is triggered if the proposed project will be in a "disputed area". (OP 7.60) Projects on International If the project is on international waterway such as: any river, canal, lake, or similar Waterways (OP 7.50) body of water that forms a boundary between, or any river or body of surface water that flows through, two or more states ( or any tributary or other body of surface water that is a component of this waterway); any bay, gulf, strait, or channel bounded by two or more states or, if within one state, recognized as a necessary channel of communication between the open sea and other states-and any river flowing into such waters.

Other environmental laws (e.g. law on air protection, law on water protection etc.) also specify the required monitoring procedures to be carried out by authorized institutions.

The complex administrative structure in BiH (entities, cantons and municipalities) results in different requirements at different levels or in some cases there are differences in the requirements of entity regulations. The national EA legislation, both in FBiH and RS has been drafted recently and implementation has not started in the full sense. Weak knowledge of the laws at certain levels of responsibility in the EA process, results in varying interpretations of the law. This is exacerbated by the lack of secondary legislation (e.g. effluent standards) which is also a requirement for full implementation of the EA process. The BiH EA process is based on the Environmental Permit, which is in turn a requirement for other necessary permits (such as the urbanism permit). The steps required for obtaining an Environmental Permit are laid during both categorization and screening. Considering the varying provisions and implementation across the entities, as well as complex and multi-step national categorization procedure, the ESEP needs to be based around the requirements of the national legislation. However, the borrower and other agencies responsible for implementation will also have to satisfy the specific requirements of the Bank at certain points. Discussion of key elements of the EA process and procedures are given below: Categorization and Screening: The World Bank carries out screening and categorization based on the impacts of the projects (type, location, sensitivity, scale, etc.), whereas in BiH, the categorization is done based on pre-defined lists of installations and facilities where scale and threshold levels are key factors in defining the category. Furthermore, in some cases, the categorization may be followed by a screening process (e.g. cat 11 projects) where a Preliminary Environmental Assessment is required prior to defining the category of the installation and other specific requirements. Table in Annex Ill compares World Bank and BiH policies with respect to projects/installations that trigger the EA process. A project categorized as Cat 11 or Ill by national legislation may not require EIA, however by Bank procedures and safeguards it may require a full EIA and higher requirements for pubic involvement. Similarly, a project categorized as Cat B by the Bank where an EMP is sufficient, may trigger a full EIA by local regulations. Therefore the two screening/categorization procedures need to be carried out separately, where projects would be categorized as A/B/C in accordance with Bank's screening policies and as category l/11/111/IVN as per national policies. The different requirements based on separate categorization are given in further text. Each sub-loan application will include a mandatory environmental screening form. The screening form will be used for screening subprojects in order to identify and satisfy both the requirements of national policies and those of the World Bank. The screening form is given in Annex IV, of which there are two parts, the first part to be completed by the borrower and the second to be completed by PMU, prior to Bank review. Required EA Documents: The comparison in Table 2 shows that the essential elements of documents required by the EA processes of the Bank and BiH are similar. In general, these essential elements are treated in greater depth in the national EA documents. In accordance with its own policies, the Bank requires additional specific information (e.g. capacity development and training). In order to satisfy both the additional requirements of the Bank and more complex requirements of national policies, and avoid duplication of effort, documents prepared during the initial preparatory phases need to be based on the national requirements. These documents will also satisfy Bank's requirements prior to the initial consultation (Cat A). Specific information or greater detail that may be required by the bank, in either the EMP or EIA, needs to be included in the draft EA prior to disclosure and appraisal. Although national laws specify the document chapters and issues to be analyzed in the EA process, they do not specify a pre-defined format or layout which must be followed for mitigation and monitoring activities. Therefore, the EMP format given in Annex 11 should be used for the project and included in the loan package of the borrower. An EMP is usually sufficient for the Bank Cat B projects, '.(N''.-bOrAt SCREENIN(; AN' -V.'.. !JATT N j CE?XTNE, 14 S,.. ,a ',, and use of a pre-defined format will improve supervision and efficiency during implementation of subprojects. The following scheme should be used for subproject EA documents, based on the two categorizations: BiH WB BiH + WB requirements Additional specific information required by the Bank Cat A PEA* followed by a full EIA.

Cat II' An EIA needs to be prepared following the PEA. Cat lb: An EIA is not required following the PEA. Environmental Permit is issued by the Entity Ministry. Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA): Projects categorized by Bank policies as Cat C are not subject to environmental assessment. Similarly, by national legislation, these projects (such as education and institutional development) do not undergo an environmental assessment but in some cases may require a Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA). In FBiH, the environmental protection law requires the preparation of SEA for all spatial planning documents which may have negative environmental impacts. Spatial planning documents which may require SEA are the following: a. Spatial outline as a basis for preparing a spatial plan. b. Programs of measures and activities. E. r - ^liJ AV PN P,f-CED1JFES 15 c. Spatial plans d. Urbanism plans e. Other spatial planning documents defined in Cantonal spatial planning laws. In RS, authorities bringing decisions and regulations having negative impacts on the environment, are responsible for preparing a SEA, however, the law does not state if physical plans are included in this category. The SEA, both in RS and FBiH, needs to include the following: (i) The level of impact and/or improvement resulting from planned measures; (ii) The pressure on the environment and population in case the planned measures are not implemented; (iii) Existing conditions for implementing the planned measures; and (iv) Capacity of relevant authorities and institutions to implement the planned measures. Public Consultation: If the project is categorized as Cat I by BiH laws and/or Cat A by World Bank procedures, two public consultations are required, one during the Preliminary Environmental Assessment phase and second after the draft EIA report is prepared. In case the project is classified as Cat 11, by BiH legislation, one consultation is required during the Preliminary Environmental Assessment phase. In case the project is re-categorized as Cat. 1, where a full EIA will be required, a second consultation is required after the draft EA is produced. Following screening, if the project does not require a full EIA, no further consultation is required. For Categories Ill and IV by BiH laws and/or Cat B by World Bank procedures only one consultation is required during the Environmental Permit issuing procedure/EA process. Records of all consultations must be disclosed with the EA documents as per World Bank requirements. Disclosure: For categories I and 11 and/or Cat A projects, the first disclosure should take place during the Preliminary Environmental Assessment process (prior to the first consultation), and the second after the draft EA report is prepared. For categories, Ill and IV, requests for issuing environmental permits need to be publicly available during the permit issuing procedure. However, if the project is Cat B, the EMP should be disclosed together with the permit request (if not already included with the permit request) in order to satisfy World Bank procedures. All documents (EIA report, draft EIA report, EMP) need to be sent to the World Bank for disclosure at the Infoshop. Effluent Standards: Until new environmental guidelines are drafted, existing standards and guidelines should be used for specifying acceptable emission levels. The Environmental Permit issued by the relevant authority will contain the allowable limits for pollutants. In case guidelines/effluent standards for specific pollutants do not exist or are not prescribed in the Environmental Permit, the PPAH should be used for determining the acceptable levels. For water related projects it is crucial to turn to the rulebook on categorization of water streams during the preparatory phase. World Bank Safeguards: A subproject may involve activities or environmental features that are always of particular concern to the Bank, such as involuntary resettlement. In case one or more World Bank safeguards are triggered (see section 3 for triggers), such as, reason to expect significant impacts on cultural heritage, the subproject needs to be classified as Cat A during the screening process, and be subject to a full EA. 6 STEPS IN THE ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW PROCESS In FBiH, the environmental review results in an Environmental Permit, which is in turn a condition for obtaining the Urbanism Permit. Certain installations and facilities require an EIA in order to obtain an Environmental Permit. In RS, for installations requiring the Environmental Permit, the Environmental Permit is a condition for obtaining the urbanism permit. In some cases the EIA study may be a NIrCNME-NTAL SCREENINCa AND . AL'' N F7eDR : R 7;JRES 16 S ';>)a . A>~ ,. requirement for the Construction Permit. The required permit and sequence of permits will be decided by the Entity Ministry based on project type and location. The key steps in the environmental review process are as follows: Step 1: Categorization Borrower prepares the initial project concept and consults the municipal authorities in order to check if the project/activity location is compatible with the existing spatial plans. The borrower then identifies the basic characteristics of the project that would be used for the environmental screening (type and size, capacity and output of the activity, use and quantities of hazardous materials, etc). With guidance from the municipality (if needed), the borrower identifies the project/activity category in accordance with BiH legislation, including the authority responsible for issuing the required permits. Following the categorization, the borrower consults the responsible authority and identifies steps and obligations for obtaining the required permits (environmental and other permits). This information needs to be included in the project screening form. Step 2: Preparation of documents and necessary permits Based on the categorization and inputs from the responsible ministry, the borrower prepares the required documents. If needed, the borrower may be assisted by specialists/consultants (In RS, the contents of the request for an Environmental Permit have to be prepared by an authorized institution). In case the project is in Cat V, the borrower does not require an Environmental Permit and may directly proceed to obtaining an urbanism permit from the municipal authorities. (In case a detailed urbanism plan exists for the municipality, the urbanism permit is not required. The municipality issues the urban-technical conditions which are a basis for preparing the investment-technical documentation, required for obtaining a construction permit.) Step 3: Request for Environmental Permit/Preliminary Environmental Assessment In FBiH: Borrower submits the request for Preliminary Environmental Assessment to the Entity Ministry for Projects in Cat I & II or request for obtaining an Environmental Permit for projects in Cat IlIl (Entity Ministry) and IV (Cantonal Ministry). For projects in Cat II, the preliminary assessment will determine whether an EIA is required prior to issuing of the Environmental Permit. For Cat I projects the preliminary assessment will determine the scope of the EIA study. In RS: Borrower submits a decision request for and EIA to the Entity Ministry for Projects in Cat I & II or request for obtaining an Environmental Permit for projects in Cat IlIl (Entity Ministry) and IV (municipal authority). For projects in Cat II, Ministries decision will determine whether an EIA is required prior to issuing of the Environmental Permit. For Cat I projects the decision will determine the scope of the EIA study. Step 4: Disclosure and Public Consultation For Cat I & II, the relevant authority (in step 3) makes the documents available to interested parties for comments (30 days are allowed for comments), and (if found necessary) arranges a public consultation as near as possible to the subject location. For Cat IlIl & IV the request for issuing an Environmental Permit (or draft permit) must be accessible by the public, where 30 days are allowed for comments. Step 5: Environmental Permit/EIA study - In case there are no comments, the competent ministry issues an Environmental Permit for Projects in Cat IlIl and IV (within 120 days starting from the request date). The Environmental Permit is then used for obtaining other permits (urbanism permit, construction permit and usage permit). - Following the screening and preliminary assessment, Cat II projects will either receive an Environmental Permit from entity ministries or will be required to prepare an EIA study. - Projects in Cat I will prepare an EIA study. - In FBiH & RS: the decision for preparation of EIA is issued 60 days after the request for PEA was made. EoR. -.lEN A.. SEFNING ANC E'i \LUAT,ON PROCEDURES 17 . .,' Step 6: Preparation of EIA study In FBiH: The borrower is required to contact an institution/firm that will prepare the EIA study. The borrower submits the EIA study/draft EIA study to the Entity Ministry for review and approval. In RS: Following a written request from the borrower (request must be submitted within 6 months from the date the decision for EIA is issued by the Ministry), the Entity Ministry contracts4 an authorized institution (within 15 days from the request date) for conducting the EIA study (to be prepared within 90 days). Once the study is completed, the authorized institution submits the study to the Entity Ministry. Step 7: Disclosure FBiH & RS: The Entity Ministry sends a copy of the draft EIA study to relevant authorities and other interested parties, allowing 30 days for receiving comments to the report. In RS, the draft EIA study is additionally sent to the borrower. Step 8: Public Consultation FBiH & RS: Entity Ministry organizes a public consultation to be held as near as possible to the project location, and invites the public to the consultation via printed media/radio/TV. Comments and suggestions on the EIA study must be received within 30 days starting from the date of the public consultation (in FBiH, the date of invitation for public consultation). In RS, the deadline for inclusion of comments and suggestions into the EIA study is 30 days following the date of public consultation. Step 9: Approval In FBiH and RS: The Entity Ministry issues a decision for either approving (within 30 days following receipt of the final EIA study) or rejecting the EIA study. The decision is sent to the borrower and interested parties that participated in the consultation process. Note: In FBiH, a positive decision is considered an Environmental Permit, while in RS, the law does not state that and Environmental Permit will be issued following the completion of EIA. However it is expected that the Environmental Permit will be issued in practice. 7 INSTITUTIONAL RESPONSIBILITIES AND ARRANGEMENTS FOR ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT Institutional arrangements for the implementation of the Urban Infrastructure and Service Delivery Project (and subprojects) have been defined, consisting of a Project Management Unit (PMU) to be formed in the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Relations (MFTER) and Project Implementing Teams (PITs), located in each of the utilities and cantonal ministries. The PMU is responsible for the overall environmental management and decision making in accordance with the ESEP during the preparation and implementation of subprojects. A separate environmental unit for the project is not required, since the PMU will be staffed by qualified personnel and specialists which will be able to carry out environmental management along with technical assistance from the World Bank and independent experts/specialists. The borrower is responsible for obtaining an Environmental Permit for projects that may impact upon the environment. For the purpose of screening, the borrower and PIT, with the guidance of PMU, should prepare the initial project concept/minimum required information about the project which will enable adequate categorization. The PMU will play a key role during the screening, and will participate in categorization of subprojects in accordance with requirements of national legislation and Bank's procedures, based on the screening form included in the Operational Manual. The results of the screening and categorization should be reviewed and approved by the Bank. The Bank should provide assistance during the screening process, especially with respect to safeguards. Furthermore, the PMU will advise the borrower on the World Bank EA requirements (contents of an EA report 4 In przictice thie borr%ecr/apphlcant contracts the instittition and not the Nfinistr% NXAr NTTAL . CREE NiNG AND EVA- J 7 AN .A r DE.. ,RES 18 S 1 A' A 2S04 and/or EMP format), the ESEP chapter requirements and other necessary information. The PMU will also be responsible for contacts and consultations with entity ministries, related to requirements, procedures and EIA contents for projects requiring environmental permits from the entity level (Cat 1, Cat 11 and Cat Ill subprojects). Where an Environmental Permit or any other necessary permit (e.g. urbanism or construction permit) is issued by cantonal or municipal authorities, the PIT should send the official permit request and attached documents to the PMU for review prior to submission to authorities. The PMU is responsible for selection and contracting of Consultants to be engaged in the preparation of the EIA report or EMP as well as for supervision during preparation. EIA reports or other separate reports (such as EMP) will be submitted by the PMU to the Bank for review and approval. For Cat A projects the borrower retains independent EA experts not affiliated with the project to carry out the EA. Consultations with project affected groups and NGO's will be arranged by the Entity Ministry. In case the Entity Ministry is not responsible for the consultation by national policies, the borrower will be responsible for carrying out the consultation, in agreement with the PMU and by informing the competent ministry/authority. The borrower will send a copy of the consultation record to the PMU. In case significant issues have been identified during the consultations, the PMU will inform the Bank accordingly. During both the construction and operating phases of each subproject the borrower will carry out the routine monitoring to ensure that mitigation requirements specified in the EMP and any other environmental requirements specified in the Environmental Permit or ESEP are complied with. The EMP format and other relevant EA documents (screening form) will be included in the loan package. The environmental protection law requires that the borrower reports to the competent authority (that issued the permit) on emission monitoring results, accidents, and other information requested by the permit(s), during the initial and last phases of construction, operation and decommissioning. When required by national policies, and if the PMU finds it necessary (due to lack of equipment or capacity), specialized institutions/companies will perform the required monitoring and data collection. Implementation of mitigation measures specified in the EMP and Environmental Permit must be supervised by the PITs on a daily basis. Reports on mitigation measures and monitoring results are submitted by the borrower to the PMU, after being reviewed by the PITs. The PMU is responsible for reviewing and analyzing the reports received from the borrower and can request additional monitoring in order to ensure that all environmental guidelines and permit requirements are satisfied. The environmental compliance reports will be attached to the annual financial reports submitted by the PMU to the Bank.

April 2004 8 INSTITUTIONAL CAPACITY FOR IMPLEMENTING THE ESEP Institutional arrangements for environmental management during project implementation are outlined in Section 7. Institutional capacity to implement the ESEP considerably differs across institutions: Municipalities: Municipalities are the first point of contact during project implementation and in some cases they are responsible for issuing an urbanism or Environmental Permit. Municipalities do not have separate environmental departments. In general, environmental issues are dealt with in urbanism and/or construction departments. These departments lack staff capable of dealing with general environmental procedures and issues. Furthermore, knowledge of new environmental laws and especially requirements of the EIA process is very weak. Currently, the World Bank is implementing a capacity building project aimed at informing and training municipalities on new developments in environmental legislation in BiH with a focus on the EA process. The training program should be expanded to cover municipalities where subprojects will be implemented. Staff in urbanism and/or construction departments should be trained on the following topics: current legislation, Environmental Permit issuing procedure, implementation of mitigation measures, monitoring and inspection, effluent standards. Cantons: Almost all cantonal ministries dealing with physical planning and environment have separate environmental departments. Current inspection and enforcement capacity is poor due to lack of staff. Although cantons have their own environmental regulations and are well informed on the new entity environmental laws, they still require additional training. In some cases, cantons are responsible for issuing environmental permits. The Staff in cantons where subprojects will be implemented need to be updated on new developments in environmental legislation in BiH, especially the proposed EIA legislation which will soon be adopted. Cantons and municipalities in which subprojects will be implemented should be trained together for environmental issues described above. Entity ministries: Entity ministries were involved in preparation of the new entity laws and proposed legislation and are well informed about their obligations in the EIA process. The departments in environmental ministries are understaffed (less than 10 employees), which has caused a delay in drafting the remaining secondary legislation required for full implementation of the EIA procedure (standards, BAT, monitoring requirements and other essential parts of the Environmental Permit). Entity ministries urgently need new staff and strengthening of inspection and monitoring capacities in order to ensure effective implementation of environmental policies. Despite the existing constraints within the ministries (and cantonal ministries) it is expected that they will have the required capacity for review and approval of EIA documents and environmental permits once the EIA procedure is fully established throughout the country. Institutions authorized for monitoring: Majority of institutions in BiH involved in monitoring activities are well equipped with monitoring equipment and have sound knowledge of international monitoring standards, especially in monitoring of air and water quality. A key issue is the lack of official environmental standards, resulting in different monitoring practices in different institutions. Monitoring plans prepared by the borrower need to be reviewed by specialists/experts contacted by the PMU, in order to ensure that proper standards and monitoring methodologies are included in the EMPs, i.e. in loan agreements. During project implementation, although unlikely, specific monitoring requirements may arise, where national monitoring institutions do not have the necessary knowledge and equipment (e.g. asbestos). These requirements should be highlighted in the subproject EMPs, and should be resolved by specialist/expert employed or contracted by the PMU. Implementing agencies/borrowers: Considering that the PMU will be adequately staffed, including specialists and consultants, additional requirements for environmental consultancy services in this agency are minimal. These services will mainly be required during the screening procedures and data analysis based on reports received from the borrowers. When needed, the PMU will contract consultants/firms temporarily. However, environmental consultancy services will be required by borrowers to a greater extent, especially during the initial EA process, when initial project concept notes are prepared and negative environmental impacts are identified. It is expected that the borrower will need minimal monitoring equipment and training for the self-monitoring activities required by the Environmental Permit, as well as other monitoring not carried out by authorized monitoring institutions. All required monitoring equipment and training should be included in the EMP. -',* .N,N V -jE-INGC aN2 Va. _ATION PROCEDtJRES 21 The PMU and PIT will play a key role during initial project preparation and screening and categorization process. Therefore these agencies will need to undergo adequate training on both World Bank and BiH environmental policies. The PMU needs to be exposed to World Bank safeguards, since it will be actively involved in the categorization process required by the Bank where important issues such as cultural property and involuntary resettlement need to be included in the project documents sent to the Bank for the review. It is recommended that a separate training, in the form of seminars, be organized for the PMU and PITs covering the following aspects: - World Bank - Environmental Assessment (OP/BP 4.01) - Safeguard Policies - Mitigation measures - Monitoring - Environmental screening - BiH Environmental review process ENVIRONMENTAL SCREENING AND EVALUATION PROCEDURES 22 -. -S.-iraIevn April 2004 Annex I: Content of an Environmental Assessment Report for a Category A Project 1. An environmental assessment (EA) report for a Category A project focuses on the significant environmental issues of a project. The report's scope and level of detail should be commensurate with the project's potential impacts. The report submitted to the Bank is prepared in English, French, or Spanish, and the executive summary in English. 2. The EA report should include the following items (not necessarily in the order shown): (a) Executive summary. Concisely discusses significant findings and recommended actions. (b) Policy, legal, and administrative framework. Discusses the policy, legal, and administrative framework within which the EA is carried out. Explains the environmental requirements of any cofinanciers. Identifies relevant international environmental agreements to which the country is a party. (c) Project description. Concisely describes the proposed project and its geographic, ecological, social, and temporal context, including any offsite investments that may be required (e.g., dedicated pipelines, access roads, power plants, water supply, housing, and raw material and product storage facilities).

ENVIRONMENTAL SCREENING AND EVALUATION PROCEDURES 24 Bos n,-S Co - Sarajevo. April 2004 Annex 11 Environmental Management Plan (EMP) 1. A project's environmental management plan (EMP) consists of the set of mitigation, monitoring, and institutional measures to be taken during implementation and operation to eliminate adverse environmental and social impacts, offset them, or reduce them to acceptable levels. The plan also includes the actions needed to implement these measures. Management plans are essential elements of EA reports for Category A projects; for many Category B projects, the EA may result in a management plan only. To prepare a management plan, the borrower and its EA design team (a) identify the set of responses to potentially adverse impacts; (b) determine requirements for ensuring that those responses are made effectively and in a timely manner; and (c) describe the means for meeting those requirements. More specifically, the EMP includes the following components. Mitigation 2. The EMP identifies feasible and cost-effective measures that may reduce potentially significant adverse environmental impacts to acceptable levels. The plan includes compensatory measures if mitigation measures are not feasible, cost-effective, or sufficient. Specifically, the EMP (a) identifies and summarizes all anticipated significant adverse environmental impacts (including those involving indigenous people or involuntary resettlement); (b) describes-with technical details-each mitigation measure, including the type of impact to which it relates and the conditions under which it is required (e.g., continuously or in the event of contingencies), together with designs, equipment descriptions, and operating procedures, as appropriate; (c) estimates any potential environmental impacts of these measures; and (d) provides linkage with any other mitigation plans (e.g., for involuntary resettlement, indigenous peoples, or cultural property) required for the project. Monitoring 3. Environmental monitoring during project implementation provides information about key environmental aspects of the project, particularly the environmental impacts of the project and the effectiveness of mitigation measures. Such information enables the borrower and the Bank to evaluate the success of mitigation as part of project supervision, and allows corrective action to be taken when needed. Therefore, the EMP identifies monitoring objectives and specifies the type of monitoring, with linkages to the impacts assessed in the EA report and the mitigation measures described in the EMP. Specifically, the monitoring section of the EMP provides (a) a specific description, and technical details, of monitoring measures, including the parameters to be measured, methods to be used, sampling locations, frequency of measurements, detection limits (where appropriate), and definition of thresholds that will signal the need for corrective actions; and (b) monitoring and reporting procedures to (i) ensure early detection of conditions that necessitate particular mitigation measures, and (ii) furnish information on the progress and results of mitigation. Capacity Development and Training 4 To support timely and effective implementation of environmental project components and mitigation measures, the EMP draws on the EA's assessment of the existence, role, and capability of environmental units on site or at the agency and ministry level. If necessary, the EMP recommends the establishment or expansion of such units, and the training of staff, to allow implementation of EA recommendations. Specifically, the EMP provides a specific description of institutional arrangements-who is responsible for carrying out the mitigatory and monitoring measures (e.g., for operation, supervision, enforcement, monitoring of implementation, remedial action, financing, reporting, and staff training). To strengthen environmental management capability in the agencies .-N. - V -.> -CREENNG, AND EVVL. AT lIN -ROCEDURES 25 - - \ . . a -, O(l responsible for implementation, most EMPs cover one or more of the following additional topics: (a) technical assistance programs, (b) procurement of equipment and supplies, and (c) organizational changes. Implementation Schedule and Cost Estimates 5. For all three aspects (mitigation, monitoring, and capacity development), the EMP provides (a) an implementation schedule for measures that must be carried out as part of the project, showing phasing and coordination with overall project implementation plans; and (b) the capital and recurrent cost estimates and sources of funds for implementing the EMP. These figures are also integrated into the total project cost tables. Integration of EMP with Project 6. The borrower's decision to proceed with a project, and the Bank's decision to support it, are predicated in part on the expectation that the EMP will be executed effectively. Consequently, the Bank expects the plan to be specific in its description of the individual mitigation and monitoring measures and its assignment of institutional responsibilities, and it must be integrated into the project's overall planning, design, budget, and implementation. Such integration is achieved by establishing the EMP within the project so that the plan will receive funding and supervision along with the other components. ).
