While reviewing the bidding document, the development unit of this project should takl: the commitment of fulfilling the environmental protection action plan as one of the revie'lVing bases. While signing the contract of this project, the implementing of the environm.mtal protection action plan should be taken as one of the service contents. The environm~ntal protection action plan should be nailed down as one of the bases for the acceptance of project quality. The environment losses caused by not implementing the environmental protedion action plan should be undertaken by the construction unit. The director of the environm~ntal protection department of the project department should deeply understand the significam:e of the environmental protection action plan, and explain it to the construction unit.
The supervising unit of this project should take the environmental protection action pl
schedule specified in the environmental protection action plan.
6 Environment Management Structure of Temporary Project
Due to the restrictions of feasibility study stage, only the borrow pits are primarily selected. More detailed site optimization will be conducted in the following preliminary design and detailed design stages.
In addition, the access roads can only be reasonably determined while contractors beginning the construction preparations on the site. Some borrow pits will be adjusted according to the actual situation, that is to say, new borrow pits will be selected during the construction stage.
6.1 Management Structure
According to general construction management routines, contractors will use the borrow pits recommended in the environmental assessment and project design document. If necessary, new borrow pits and access roads can be adjusted or determined according to actual situation and according to the negotiation with local government and communities. In any case, the following procedures should be complied with:
Before the construction of this project, contractors will make plans and design schemes for temporary projects (including access roads and borrow pits), including substantial environmental protection measures and reclamation scheme.
These schemes will be submitted to the environment supervising engineer and/or the project owner for verification and approval.
During the construction period, the environment supervising engineer and the project owner will supervise the environmental performances of contractors on these sites.
6.2 Site Selection Standard
To optimize the borrow pits during the design stage and select new site/access roads during the construction stage, the following principles should be complied with:
Earth Pits
Fetch earth collectively to reduce the number ofearth pits and select slopes or barren land for fetching earth to occupy less arable land and woodland; It is forbidden to occupy basic farmlands, basic grasslands and ecological protective woods.
D Earth pits shall be located in concealed areas, far away from river channel, to reduce soil erosion and negative impact on water quality of the river channel;
