1. Introduction

Overall Project Description

1. The Infrastructure Development Investment Program for Tourism Financing Facility (the Facility)

will develop and improve basic urban infrastructure and services in the four participating states

of Himachal Pradesh, Punjab, Uttarakhand and Tamil Naduねto support the tourism sector as a

key driver for economic growth. It will focus on: (i) strengthening connectivity to and among key

tourist destinations; (ii) improving basic urban infrastructure and services, such as water supply,

road and public transport, solid waste management and environmental improvement, at

existing and emerging tourist destinations to ensure urban amenities and safety for the visitors,

and protect nature and culture-based attractions. Physical infrastructure investments will be

accompanied by: (iii) capacity building programs for concerned sector agencies and local

communities for better management of the tourist destinations and for more active

participation in the tourism-related economic activities, respectively.

2. The proposed Project targets enhanced economic growth and provision of livelihood

opportunities for local communities through tourism infrastructure development with a focus

on preservation and development of natural and cultural heritage and incidental services. The

Project supports the state of Uttarakhand to develop the tourism sector as a key driver for

economic growth.

3. The Executing Agency (EA) for the Investment Program is Dept. of Tourism, Govt of Uttarakhand.

The Loan Agreement and Project Agreement for the IDIPT, Uttarakhand is 2833-IND. Project

Implementation Unit have been established in three towns respectively (Dehradun, Bhimtal and

Kotdwar) for implementation of sub-projects. Design and Supervision Consultants (DSCs), has

already been established in three towns for designing the Infrastructure, managing the

tendering of Contractors and supervising construction, and providing support to the PIUs.

Outputs of the Project

4. The outputs of the Project are as follows:

Component 1: Urban Infrastructure and Service Improvement

(i) World class infrastructure comprising of gardens, fountains and water sports developed along

the banks of Ganga Canal at Haridwar;

(ii) Tourist facilities at Parichay and Naukuchiyatal Lake upgraded and developed;

(iii) Tourist support infrastructure at Pithoragarh improved;

(iv) Tourist facilities developed at Hanol Temple, Tiger Falls, Deoban, Lakhamandal and Tree

Samadhi;

(v) 9 Adventure tourism centers established across the state; and

(vi) North Corbett entry point improved.

Component 2: Improved connectivity

Component 3: Quality Enhancement of Natural and Cultural Attractions

(i) Water sports tourism facility developed at Asan Barrage Dehradun;

(ii) Jagjit-pur/ Silt ejector canal at Haridwar improved;

(iii) Pithoragarh Fort conserved; and

(iv) Naukuchiyatal lake Ameliorated.

Component 4: Greater participation by local communities

Component 5: Capacity Development, Community Participation and Project Management

Environment Category:

5. The project under IDIPT was categorized as EnvirラミマWミデ C;デWェラヴ┞ さBざが ;IIラヴSキミェ デラ ADBげゲ Safeguard Policy Statement (2009). All the subprojects under execution have been categorized

as category B.

Environment Performance Indicators, if any:

6. For effective monitoring, selected environmental parameters have been identified as indicators

which may be qualitatively and quantitatively measured and compared over a period of time in

order to assess/ ensure the compliance to environmental management plans (EMPs). The

environmental performance indicators selected are physical, biological and social characteristics

identified as most important in affecting the environment at critical locations all along the sub

project corridors. The parameters identified as performance indicators are:

(i) Compliance with environmental management and monitoring plan

(ii) Compliance to State/ National environmental regulations.

(iii) Monitoring of ambient air quality, water quality and noise levels and comparison with

baseline environmental quality and State/ National Standards.

DSC and PMC about issues/ problems related to environmental non-compliance.

Necessary directions, in case of non-compliances are being issued to the contractors on

the site and through letters about the procedures to resolve the problems/issues or

requirements. The Safeguards Staff of DSC conduct regular site visits to monitor the

implementation of safeguards measures on sites.

7. Monitoring of environmental receptors/ attributes

Monitoring basis:

14. Monitoring for the implementation of Environmental Monitoring Plan/Management

Plan is required to be done to check if any adverse impact is being caused by the

construction activities. The monitoring of these variables is to be carried out in

construction sites within 100 m impact zone of the sub project.

15. The monitoring of environmental variables is to be carried out as per the agreed

Environmental Monitoring Plan.

Type of environmental receptor/ attribute to be monitored

16. The environmental attributes to be monitored include the air, noise and water quality

parameters at the construction sites in sub project corridors. The air quality parameters

monitored include RSPM (PM10), SO2 and NO2. The water quality parameters include

temperature, pH, electrical conductivity (EC), dissolved oxygen (DO), biochemical

oxygen demand (BOD), total suspended solids (TSS), total dissolved solids (TDS) and

turbidity. In case of noise the day time Leq values are monitored.

Methods of monitoring and equipment used

17. The following standard methodology is being used for monitoring
