The top soil from all sites shall be stripped to a specified depth of 15 cm and stored in stock piles for reuse. A portion of temporarily acquired area and/or RoW edges will be earm arked for storing top soil. The locations for stacking will be pre-identified in consultation and with approval of JUIDCO. The following precautionary measures will be taken by the Contractor to preserve the stock piles till they are re-used: Stockpiles wi height is restricted to 2 m To retain soil and allow percolation of water, the edges of pile will be protected by silt fencing Multiple handling kept to a minimum to ensure that no compaction occurs · Stockpiles shall be covered with empty gunny bags or will be planted with grasses to prevent the loss during rains Such stockpiled topsoil will be utilized for: Covering reclamation sites or other disturbed areas Top dressing and raising turfs Filling up of tree pits For developing compensatory plantation · In the agricultural fields of farmers, acquired temporarily that needs to be restored Residual top soil, if there is any, shall be utilized for the plantatio ns works The utilization as far as possible shall be in the same area from where top soil was removed. The stripping, preservation and reuse shall be carefully inspected, closely supervised and properly recorded by JUIDCO ANNEXURE IV: LABOUR CAMP SITE MANAGEMENT PLAN INTRODUCTION The scope of this plan pertains to the siting, development, management and restoration of construction and labour camps to avoid or mitigate impacts on the environment. According to estimates, during the peak construction time the total no of skilled and unskilled labours is estimated to be 350 nos. However most of the labour shall be locally hired by contractor from Dhanbad and nearby villages/area. Approximately 85-90% of labours will be locally hired. It is expected that only 10-15% (55 nos.) of skilled labours and unskilled labours may come from outside the Dhanbad city. The Labour camp shall be setup for 55 nos. of labour and will be approximately 1 acre. JUIDCo is working with the ULB to identify suitable sites for the workers camps, the final decision lies with the contractor but any selected site would have to be approved by JUIDCo and ULB. Guidelines for setting up of labour camp have been provided in Annexure IV. However, these numbers are only indicative given the context of labour requirements in Jharkhand. The contactor, once on board would require to set up construction and labour camp for keeping the health and safety of workers and impacts of setting up such camps on the local community in consideration according to the specifications in this plan. This plan is prepared in reference to the guidance provided in the ESMF on Labour camp siting and management, and the Workers accommodation: processes and standards (A guidance note by IFC and EBRD). Most impacts arising from operation of the camps would be managed by the contractor as they concern his staff. Responsibilities for managing these impacts have been clearly reflected as a contractual obligation, with appropriate mechanisms for addressing non- compliance. Although would cover a relatively small area of 1 acre, some impacts associated could include generation of waste/ litter, water demands, fuel wood collection, soil erosion, and spillage of oils and fuel; f improperly managed can contaminate local environmental resources (soil, water) and pose public health risks. These associated impacts/ risks would need to be managed appropriately in accordance with the provisions of this plan. The contractor would also be required to develop specific labour management procedures and mitigation measures before the start of works and monitor and update the labour management plan as necessary during the project. JUIDCO would develop a separate training module with the help of technical partner to build the capacity of JUIDCO, Supervision Consultants and Contractors in preparation and execution of this labour management plan. This would address specific activities that will be undertaken to minimize the impact on the local community, including elements such as i. Communication and awareness plan on national labour and women harassment laws and its penal implications, leave provisions and other allowances for workers benefit, ii. Worker codes of conduct with respect to manual scavenging, engagement with residents, child labour, non-discrimination, harassment of co-workers including women and those belonging to SC and STs and other minority social groups. iii.

ANNEXURE IX: ENVIRONMENT & SOCIAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY METHODOLOGY USED FOR THE IDENTIFICATION OF POTENTIAL RISKS AND IMPACTS This chapter proposes the standardised methodology for impact identification to ensure consistency between the ratings of impacts in future ESIAs to be developed for sub-projects. DETERMINATION OF BASELINE CONDITIONS Baseline conditions should be documented to establish prevailing biophysical and socio- economic situation upon which impacts to be assessed and provide a basis for future monitoring. Baseline conditions are to be established using a combination of methods including detailed document review, observation, and interviews, biological and social surveys. IMPACT IDENTIFICATION AND ANALYSIS Impact Description An impact is any change to a resource or receptor brought about by the presence of a project component or by the execution of a project related activity. The relevant impact characteristics included whether the impact is: Adverse or beneficial; Direct or indirect; Short, medium, or long-term in duration; and permanent or temporary; Affecting local, regional or global scale; including trans-boundary Table 9: Impact Characteristics S.No. Impact Characteristics Definition 1 Adverse Causes adverse change from the baseline, or introduces a new undesirable factor. 2 Beneficial Causes improvement on the baseline or introduces a positive change. 3 Direct Impact Impacts that result from a direct interaction between a proposed project activity and the receiving environment/receptors 4 Indirect Impact Impacts that result from other activities that are encouraged to happen as a consequence of the proposed project Impact Severity Impact severity is a function of the extent, duration and sensitivity of receptor. The definition of extent, duration and intensity to consider for determining impact severity has been presented in Table 10. Table 10: Parameters to consider for impact severity Sl.No Classification Description 1 Extent Evaluation of the area of occurrence/influence of environmental impact; Extend can be defined as limited (within 2 km radius of the site); local (within 5 km radius of the site); regionally (district wide, nationally or internationally). 2 Duration Defines the time which a receptor will be affected. Temporary (<1 year); short term (1 5years); medium term (5 10 years); long term (>10); or permanent. 3 Sensitivity of High sensitivity: Entire community affected (more than 100 receptor households affected), presence of world heritage and important cultural sites, presence of water body used by community within 50 m of project footprint, presence of ecological sensitive area, national park or wild life sanctuary within 2 km of project site Medium sensitivity: More than 50 and less than 100 houses affected, presence of forest area within 5 km, presence of water body used by community within 50-100 m of project footprint. Low sensitivity: No displacements, no potential for stakeholder conflict, less than 50 household affected, water body used by community present within 500 m of project footprint, no livelihood impact, no livelihood impact Based on the above table, impact severity is calculated as presented below: Very low: Environmental changes are within the existing limits of natural variations Low: Environmental changes exceed the existing limits of natural variations. Natural environment is completely self-recoverable. Medium: Environmental changes exceed the existing limits of natural variations and results in damage to specific environmental components. Natural environment remains self-recoverable. High: Environmental changes result in significant disturbance to specific environmental components and ecosystems. Certain environmental components lose self-recovering ability. Probability of occurrence The probability of occurring an impact is described below: Unlikely - The impact is unlikely to occur. Likely- The impact is likely to occur under most conditions. Definite-The impact will occur Impact Significance Impact significance is determined from an impact significance matrix Table 11) which compares severity of the impact with probability of its occurrence. Table 11: Impact significance Probability of occurrence Unlikely Likely Definite Severity of Very low Negligible Negligible Minor impact Low Negligible Minor Minor Medium Minor Moderate Moderate High Minor Moderate Major Impact significance criteria are as follows: Major: These denote that the impact is unacceptable and further mitigation measures must be implemented to reduce the significance. Moderate: Impacts in this region are considered tolerable but efforts must be made to reduce the impact to levels that are as low as reasonably practical. Minor: Impacts in this region are considered acceptable Negligible: Impacts in this region are almost not felt ANNEX X: CHANCE FIND PROCEDURE Excavation in sites of known archaeological interest should be avoided. Where this is unavoidable, prior discussions must be held with the relevant Authority (ASI) in order to undertake pre-construction excavation or assign an archaeologist to log discoveries as construction proceeds. Where historical remains, antiquity or any other object of cultural or archaeological importance are unexpectedly discovered during construction in an area not previously known for its archaeological interest, the following procedures should be applied: a) Stop construction activities. b) Delineate the discovered site area. c) Secure the site to prevent any damage or loss of removable objects. In case of removable antiquities or sensitive remains, a guard should be present until the responsible authority takes over. d) Notify the responsible archaeologist. Who in turn should notify the responsible authorities, the ASI and local authorities (within less than 24 hours). Responsible authorities would oversee protecting and preserving the site before deciding on the proper procedures to be carried out. The significance and importance of the findings will be assessed per various criteria relevant to cultural heritage including aesthetic, historic, scientific or research, social and economic values. a) Decision on how to handle the finding will be reached based on the above assessment and could include changes in the project layout (in case of finding an irrevocable remain of cultural or archaeological importance), conservation, preservation, restoration or salvage. b) Implementation of the authority decision concerning the management of the finding. c) Construction work could resume only when permission is given by ASI after the decision concerning the safeguard of the heritage is fully executed. In case of delay incurred in direct relation to Archaeological findings not stipulated in the contract (and affecting the overall schedule of works), the contractor may apply for an extension of time. However, the contractor will not be entitled for any kind of compensation or claim other than what is directly related to the execution of the archaeological findings works and protections These procedures must be referred to as standard provisions in construction contracts, when applicable. During project supervision, the Site Engineer shall monitor the above regulations relating to the treatment of any chance find encountered are observed. The relevant findings will be recorded in the EMP monthly progress report, and quarterly property mitigation, management, and activities, as appropriate.
