Background

The BRBIP is a project being implemented by loan and grant from ADB with the objective of

enhancing the environmental conditions of sacred river Bagmati. The main outputs of the project

during the first phase for which the report is being written includes:

(i) Rural incomes uplifting through increased employment, skills training and improved

access to credit for the rural poor,

(ii) Capacity building and decentralized governance, including addressing corruption

concerns and

(iii) Fostering rural transport connectivity and complementary community infrastructure

investments.

Ministry of Urban Development (MoUD) is the Executing Agency (EA) while the Implementing

Agency responsibility is segregated between High Powered Commission for Integrated

Development for Bagmati Civilization (HPCIDBC) and Department of Irrigation (DOI). On one

hand HPCIDBC is the Implementing agency (IA) for River Improvement works of upper Bagmati

and hosts the Project Management Unit (PCMU) which is supported also by Project Management

and Construction Supervision Consultant (PMCS). While on the other hand DOI is the IA for the

design and construction of increased water storage capacity in the Shivapuri Nagarjun National

Park.

With the growth of population and subsequent urbanization in the Kathmandu valley, there is

tremendous pressure in the natural resources especially the water flowing through the Bagmati

River. Unchecked waste disposal along the bank of the river and unregulated ground water

extraction for the domestic and industrial purposes has left the Bagmati River with polluted water

which is totally of substandard not only for the human use but also for the aquatic plants and

animals to survive there in. Apart from losing the dwelling condition of aquatic flora and fauna, the

physical quality and quantity deterioration of the river water has led to a loss of cultural and

recreational amenity for the local communities.

Government of Nepal with its different line Ministries and the Departments are working in the

process to improve the quality and the quantity of Bagmati River water. Bagmati River Basin

Improvement Project (BRBIP) has conducted watershed conservation program through the Non-

Government Organization. In order to achieve the objective of increasing the water quantity in the

river, BRBIP has well defined its tangible benefit in its stipulated project output number three -

Increased water availability during the dry season and watershed conservation.

Getting along with the objective as mentioned in the output 3 of the project, Department of

Irrigation has initiated the construction of 24-meter high concrete faced rock fill dam in Dhap area

of Shivapuri under the program of design and built approach. Since the construction of Dhap dam

has to go in compliances with Government approved Environmental Management plan - felling

down of trees for construction site clearance has to be compensated by replantation in fivefold -

tree plantation to compensate the lost vegetation has to be initiated in an effective and efficient

methods.

Environmental Safeguards for BRBIP

Environmental Assessment is the primary administrative tool to integrate environmental

considerations into decision-making to ensure that proposed development intervention will have

minimal environmental impacts. BRBIP fall in “A” category project according to ADB.

Safeguard Policy Statement, 2009 Therefore, Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) for the

projects under BRBIP is mandatory in order to assess the environmental consequences of the

construction as well as operation activities and suggest appropriate, practical and site-specific

mitigation and enhancement measures. In this context, EIA report has been prepared for the

project in accordance with the environmental regulations (Environmental Protection Act, 1997 and

Environmental Protection Rule, 1997) of GoN and also satisfying the ADB environmental

procedures.

Environmental Monitoring is an important tool for ensuring compliance of mitigation and measures

and implementation of EMP. The construction works for Dhap dam construction have be initiated

after the completion of Contractor’s/labor camp construction and minor improvement of access

road to dam site at Dhap after receiving formal permission from National Park and forest ministry

(on January 27th, 2017). After the receiving the formal permission from National Park and forest

ministry, tree cutting work was commenced on access road to dam site and on some parts of the

dam site area from the month of February along with the improvement and widening of the access

road. The foundation excavation work of the Dhap Dam that was started from mid-April is still

continuing as of date. Tree cutting of the remaining tree on the area above the dam axis is being

cleared at the moment. The maintenance and upgrading of access road to the site is continuous

till now.

The following items are the construction status of the Dhap Dam

Construction work was delayed by one and half year because of delayed in approval by SNNP.

The following construction work is done;

1. Around 21 Km of earthen access road improvement is completed except construction of

side drains, improvement of cross drains and gravelling.

2. Establishment of contractor’s camp, labor camp is completed. 3. Foundation excavation of main dam is again halted due to rainfall and perspective change

in design.

4. Foundation excavation of saddle dam foundation is complete.

5. Clearance of excavated materials from the site of excavation is in progress.

6. Extraction of rock fill material inside the reservoir area is in progress.

7. Supplementary drilling for geotechnical investigation of main and saddle dam foundation,

is competed but exploration of embankment material and spillway and stilling basin still

pending.

8. Cutting of trees inside the reservoir area is in progress, some of the timber / wood logs

has been stacked in Sundarijal Secondary School, Madichud Camp and Dhap Dam

reservoir area as directed by SNNP.

Page 5: Environmental Monitoring Report - ADB

9. Remaining tree roots, branches and timber logs which are in the reservoir area, are

collected and stacked.

10. Permeability test along the axis of saddle dam, is completed and the test result is

submitted in soft copy not in hard copy. But the interpretation and report submission are

expected.

11. Topographic survey is completed and report submitted except additional saddle dam. It is

a continuous process because the tree cutting is in progress.

Environmental Concerns of Dhap Dam Construction

Submission of Construction Environment Management Plan: - Contractor has submitted

Construction Environment Management Plan (CEMP) on month of January 2018.

Tree Cutting: - In this season about 800 trees has been chopped off from Dhap dam

reservoir area. All together till now around 2100 numbers of trees has been cut from Dhap dam

reservoir area and 500 numbers of tree has been cleared from access road. Remaining trees are

still need to be cut as work progress.

Stacking of Tree Logs and Cutting of Trees: - Felled tree logs are being stock pilled inside the

reservoir area. During informal talk with SNNP officials, stocking pilling area is not sufficient.

Formally specified area within Sundarijal Secondary School is starting to construct building and

they don’t have space to store timber logs. There is no space in Manichud Camp. The stock piling has to be settled after dialogue with SNNP. So far, around 1200 nos. of cut trees are stocked in

Dhap reservoir area, around 4750 trees in access roads, around 710 in Manichud Camp and 215

Page 6: Environmental Monitoring Report - ADB

in Sundarijal School. Remaining tree roots, branches and timber logs which are in the reservoir

area, are collected and stacked.

The details of cut trees and the location of its management is as per the attached Annex 1.

Laboratory Establishment at Site: - Establishment of laboratory at site was to complete

04/12/2017. The laboratory was not found functional yet. A very few equipment’s apparatus are

mobilized at site. The equipment’s for soil testing is mobilized at site, the laboratory is not

operational because the power supply and testing equipment’s are not arranged systematically in the laboratory.

Excavated from Main Dam and Abutment Material Stock Pilling: - Excavated materials is

stock pilled along the river channel downstream of the dam toe and location for stilling basin of

spillway without protection and along the stream channel upstream of labor camp without proper

protection against flowing into the river channel. The contractor was reminded for the

management in written but not started yet.

Excavated Material Saddle Dam Foundation: - Excavated material obtained from saddle dam

is stocked, along the stream channel at the right bank of reservoir near existing culvert, which is

liable to spill into the stream channel if it is unchecked. Contractor has been made aware of

environmental concern during site visit.

Flowing of Excavated Muck Downhill at 12+140:- Excavated fine muck is flowing downhill at

12+140 of access road, the contractor is mad aware to manage the muck against flowing towards

downhill. It is reported that they are trying to control excavated material against flowing towards

downhill.

Solid Waste Management: - Kitchen solids are collected in a pit near the camp and frequently

remove from there safely out of SNNP area decomposable and non-decomposable waste

separately. Toilet solids are collected into underground safety tank.

Spoil Disposal and Storage: - Excavated material is dumped at the bank of river downstream

of main dam and upstream of reservoir at stream bank near the culvert on road to Chisapani. The

material is likely to flow with water if small rainfall occurs in the catchment. Management

measurement of discharge and silt management should be done immediately. It was informed to

contactor that the areas where foundation excavated materials stocked piled along left bank of

river, downstream main dam and on left bank of river channel, upstream of labor camp (near the

culvert across the road to Chisapani) need immediate toe/slope protection wall to prevent stock

piled material from washing away with increase in water flow intensity.

Water and Silt Management:- The contractor need to monitor the water quality of stream at

500m downstream of the main dam; but they reluctant to comply water and silt management as

per item no 1.8 water and silt management of Bill of Quantities. Establishment of device for water

and sediment measurement is prerequisite before the start of dam foundation excavation because

Page 7: Environmental Monitoring Report - ADB

the excavated material was flowing with water unchecked during rainy season which was

requested to contactors to start the Water and Silt Management immediately.

Submission of Quarterly Environmental Compliance Report: - The contractor has not

submitted environment compliance quarterly report (as per 4.18c of Particular Condition of

Contract) during this year duration in spite of request verbally and in written at several occasions.

The Environmental Management Plan for the river training/beatification work from Gokarna to

Sinamanga had been prepared and submitted to the client for the approval from the concerned

ministry for tits implementation. Similarly, the contractor (KALIKA-RANKEEN-LAMA JV) had been

awarded and mobilized for the river training/beatification work from Gokarna to Sinamangal. They

have commenced their work from January 2017 from the Gokarna Bridge till Sinamangal Bridge

working on different section. They have also submitted the Construction Environmental

Management Plan to the consultation and they are conducting their work as per it following the

environmental compliances as stated on it and EMP. Work progress in construction site have

been reviewed by us and forwarded with comments and suggestion for further improvement.

Overall Environmental Safeguard Status

Dhap Dam Construction Site

Environmental safeguard status in Dhap Dam construction work is good as the construction work

at site started from the month of February with the clearing of the tress on access road of dam

site area with minor improvement and widening of the road. Establishment of Contractor camp

site is completed with toilet facility, supply of water and solar electricity. The Waste water from

toilet and kitchen effluent has been managed in Septic tank with soak pit. The Dam foundation

excavation work has been started following the slope stability as per the design following the

mitigation measures. The Insurance of working labors and staffs have been done and has been

following the occupational health and safety parameters at site by providing personal Protective

Equipment work has started at the project site.

Preparation of Cost Estimation and ToR for Implementation of Compensatory Plantation

work of Dhap for Re-plantation work

Almost 90,000 plants have to be planted as a part of EMP implementation for the total

of 2786 trees fell down with respect to ongoing Dhap dam construction works. Due to the fact that

the cost for plantation was not included in contractor's BOQ and they being tangled within the civil

works of the dam it is very unlikely of them that they will execute the plantation works if they were

to do it. In this context to carry out compensatory plantation work enrolling new NGO has been

planned by the client. So for that the cost estimate for plantation work and term of reference for

the NGO has been prepared for the procurement work which is as on attached Annex 2.

Assisting EIA team of Phase II work

Assisted the EIA conducting team from ADB for the BRBIP Phase II work. Shear project related

design, information and material to the EIA team. Took them to site (Utar Gaya, Gokerna,

Page 8: Environmental Monitoring Report - ADB

Slesmantak and Mirgasthali hill, Gaurighat, Pashupati and Guhyeshwori area, and Thapathali to

Balkhu) for field visit related to the scope of work included in Phase-II project. Help them to find

list down related concerned stokeholds due to this project work and also assisted them to the

reach to those related concerned stokeholds for public and stakeholders consultation.

River Corridor Beautification Work

Environmental safeguard status of Bagmati river corridor beautification work is categorized as

good as the work is continuing from mid-January 2017 with the construction of stone masonry

retaining walls and foundation excavation for it following the construction environmental

management plan and following the EMP. The Insurance of available working labors and staffs

have been done and has been following the occupational health and safety parameters at site by

providing personal Protective Equipment. Work has started at the project site. The Contractor’s camp has been established at site with some temporary tented Labor camps at site near the

working area with supply of drinking water, electricity and toilet facility. The Traffic on the side

road is continuous while the construction work is on progress and now disturbance on road with

the construction materials stockpiling and vehicles is felt. The plants and greenery on the either

side of the river are being protected, preserved and in some extent relocated by the contractors

during the construction work to minimize it lose.

The probable sites for compensatory plantation will be finalized by the interaction with Park authority and local buffer zone users Community. Issues and Way Forward for Dhap Dam work Major to improve civil construction work following preparatory works are prerequisite:

1. Completion and submission design and drawings of main dam, saddle dam and spillway

and appurtenances, satisfying employer’s requirements. 2. Furnishing of client/engineers site office cum quarter so that engineers’ representative and

environmental inspector could be stationed at site.

3. Establishment fuel and construction material warehouse, for storing manufactured

construction materials e.g., cement, admixtures for grouting, reinforcement for plinth slab

construction and different types of water stops for construction expansion/contraction

joints etc.

4. Connection of power supply to laboratory so that the saddle dam construction materials

could be tested.

5. Resources allocation e.g., sufficient earth moving equipment’s for main and saddle dam preparation.

6. Establishment of sand washing and rock material screening plant. Because grouting in

saddle dam foundation could be started as soon as saddle dam design drawing is

finalized.

7. Establishment of batching plant it is pertinent because preparation of plinth slab foundation

its construction could be started as soon as excavation of foundation is completed.

8.

9. Removal of top organic material and soil from spillway chute and its toe and geotechnical

investigation of the area.

Revised Work Schedule and Resources Plan: - Revised Work Schedule was submitted on 22/11/2017. The resources plan was not attached. PMDSC has requested GLR to submit resources plan to materialize the proposed work schedule.

Plantation work in Dhap Dam area of Shivapuri Nagarjun National Park.

Terms of Reference

1. Background:

From the perspective of socio economic and cultural importance, Bagmati River always remained as a most significant river not only for the Nepalese people but also to the huge lot of Hindu population all over the world. The flowing water of Bagmati River being considered as a holy water is used in ritual ceremonies practiced at the numerous Ghats and temples located on the bank of river. The Gokarna Ghat by the side of Gokarneshwor temple, Aryaghat by the Side of Pashupatinath temple and Kalmochan Ghat are considered as the most scared place and on different festivals people gather here to practice Hindu rituals by using the holy water of the Bagmati River. The value of the river is further enhanced by its versatile use of its water including drinking and sanitation in many of the households, hydropower generation especially in the middle reach of the river and irrigation services in the vast stretch of land in the flat plain of terai. Shivapuri watershed being the source of the Bagmati River supplies potable water for the people residing in Kathmandu valley.

With the growth of population and subsequent urbanization in the Kathmandu valley, there is tremendous pressure in the natural resources especially the water flowing through the Bagmati River. Unchecked waste disposal along the bank of the river and unregulated ground water extraction for the domestic and industrial purposes has left the Bagmati River with polluted water which is totally of substandard not only for the human use but also for the aquatic plants and animals to survive there in. Apart from losing the dwelling condition of aquatic flora and fauna, the physical quality and quantity deterioration of the river water has led to a loss of cultural and recreational amenity for the local communities.

Government of Nepal with its different line Ministries and the Departments are working in the process to improve the quality and the quantity of Bagmati River water. Bagmati River Basin Improvement Project (BRBIP) has conducted watershed conservation program through the Non-Government Organization. In order to achieve the objective of increasing the water quantity in the river, BRBIP has well defined its tangible benefit in its stipulated project output number three - Increased water availability during the dry season and watershed conservation.

Getting along with the objective as mentioned in the output 3 of the project, Department of Irrigation has initiated the construction of 24-meter high concrete faced rock fill dam in Dhap area of Shivapuri under the program of design and built approach. Since the construction of Dhap dam has to go in compliances with Government approved Environmental Management plan - felling down of trees for construction site clearance has to be compensated by replantation in fivefold - tree plantation to compensate the lost vegetation has to be initiated in an effective and efficient methods.

2. Objective of the consulting Service

General

In the process of Dhap dam construction activities being carried out in the forest area, it has been reported that a total of 2794 trees have been fell down for which 90,000 tree saplings has to be planted as a compensatory measure as a part of EMP implementation. NGO 1, assigned by BRBIP as a responsible organization for the watershed improvement of Shivapuri Nagarjun forest area, has planted 15000 tree saplings in line with the EMP. The remaining 75000 trees saplings needs to be planted in the area specified in order to meet the overall requirement. Although the normal practice of tree plantation work is provisioned in the estimated cost of the contractor’s price, here it is intended to carry out separately by employing NGO in order to expedite the Environmental compliance work in a rapid and effective manner. it is expected to carry out the plantation activities in an organized method by establishing a well flourished plant sapling’s nursery with strict Compliance of the Environmental safeguard policy as mentioned in the ADB guide line and the prevailing Environmental protection regulative laws of the Government of Nepal.

Specific

The specific objectives of the consultancy services are as follows:

Established Plant Nursery and develop enough sapling of given tress species to plant 75,000 numbers of different plants species as given by the Park for the Re-plantation work

Carry out of Compensatory Re-plantation work of 75,000 numbers of trees for the implementation of the EMP requirement of the Dam Project

The Compensatory Re-plantation species should be developed in the nursery at least bi-annually and must have minimum of 1-meter height before plantation begins.

Construct protective fencing of the plantation area as instructed by the Park Authority. Develop and construct the protection and preservation mechanism for the planted trees

species in the area for five years from the time of plantation work.

3. Scope of the Consultancy service:

The construction of Dhap dam to store 0.85 million cubic meter of rainwater storage has been conceptualized in the Shivapuri Nagarjun forest area to increase quantity and quality of the flowing water of the Bagmati River. The water thus accumulated would be released in the Bagmati River in a regulated manner throughout the year. Water from the uphill rolls all the way down the river dissolving adequate oxygen level making the river healthy for aquatic flora and fauna to habitat. It is obvious that the construction of Dam and the storage of water behind displace the occupancies of several trees and natural vegetation. A thorough Assessment of Environmental Impact Assessment has prescribed remedial mitigation measure of replantation as a compensatory measure. Among the several sequential activities in the dam construction such as surveying, planning, designing, pre – construction, construction and operation and maintenance, the removal of trees to clear the required reservoir area in the site carries a significant loss in the Shivapuri Nagarjun forest ecosystem causing displacement of highly dense, 385 trees per hectare of land, of the age old natural conglomeration of reserved forest. It is estimated that during its full fledge capacity of water storage, a total of 1964 numbers of trees are to be inundated behind the

Page 21: Environmental Monitoring Report - ADB

main dam. Despite the losses in the numbers of trees and the vegetation, it has been reported that none of the endangered species of flora and fauna has been affected by the Environmental impact. Considering the state of the forest and the composition of species, the loss of biodiversity is minimal and recoverable in due course of time.

Compensation need to the assessment made by the environmental impact study has to be carried out in the forest area according to the working policy on construction and operation of physical Infrastructures within conservation areas, which insists the obligatory rule of planting 25 new trees sapling for every removed tree. With this equation, for 2794 trees that had been cleared from the inundation area of the reservoir and the dam construction site, planting of 70000 trees in total has to be carried out. Additional planting of 20,000 tree sapling has to be done to comply the condition of SNNP – for the loss of 12.52 ha of their forest land in reservoir construction, the additional plantation at the rate of 1600 saplings per hectare should be done. Hence, the scope of reforestation extends up to 90,000 trees saplings all together, keeping aside 15,000 trees that have been planted in the specified location by NGO 1 under watershed Management work for BRBIP and is an integral part of EMP implementation of Dhap Dam construction.

Now, the Project Implementation Irrigation Unit (PIIU) with the assistant of hired NGO has to carry on the plantation of 75,000 trees saplings within the predefined area of 46.88 hectare in order to cover the original trees density of 16,000 trees species per hectare of forest land. The plantation needs to be done in close coordination and supervision of park authority that assist in allocating the required site of trees plantation and the guidelines given by MFSC, Department of Wildlife to minimize the adversities shall be strictly taken care of so as to optimize the benefit of the project in restoring luster green forest environment.
