1 Executive Summary

1.1 Project IntroductionIn terms of urbanization, Karnataka is the fourth largest in India. This status puts a lot pressure on the GoK and ULBs in terms of providing urban services. As part of its initiatives to meet the huge unmet demand Karnataka Municipal Reforms Project is being prepared by KUIDFC and proposed for funding to the World Bank. This forms part of the initiatives taken by the UDD in implementing urban reforms. KMRP has following four different components.

A. Institutional Development & Technical AssistanceB. Investment Support (General Urban Investment and Public

Health Investment)C. Bangalore Development (Capacity Building and Investment

Support)D. Incremental Operating Costs to KUIDFC

KUIDFC has developed criteria for selection and inclusion of ULBs for funding under KMRP. The first batch of ULBs selected for investments consist of 17 ULBs and Bangalore.

1.2 About The StudyAs a part of this project preparation, a Social and Environmental Assessment was undertaken to identify the social and environmental issues related to the project and develop a framework for mitigation measures. During study one-to-one meetings, Focus Group Discussions and extensive Public Consultations with the stakeholders were held at the ULBs/ state level. This study has produced the following out puts: 1. Combined Sectoral Social and Environmental Assessment (SSEA)2. Combined Social and Environmental Management Framework

(SEMF)3. Capacity Building Plan on Social and Environmental Issues4. Communication and Consultation Strategy

1.3 Institutional BackgroundIn Karnataka, as in other places in India, the urban infrastructure is planned and implemented by a variety of institutions. The UDD is the administrative head of most of these institutions. The institutions which are directly under the administrative control of UDD are: Directorate of Municipal Administration (DMA) Department of Town Planning (DTP) Karnataka Urban Water Supply & Drainage Board (KUWS&DB)

Samaj Vikas ([email protected]) 1

Karnataka Urban Infrastructure Development Finance CorporationKarnataka Municipal Reforms Project – Profile of ULBs

Karnataka Urban Infrastructure Development and Finance Corporation (KUIDFC)

There other agencies, viz., Bangalore Mahanagara Palike, Bangalore Development Authority, Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board, etc. which mainly focus on Bangalore, which contribute to the urban development.

With regard to Social and Environmental requirements of projects, the following are the focus agencies at Central and State level. Government of India (GoI) Institutions

o Ministry of Environment and Forests (MoEF)o Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB)

Government of Karnataka (GoK) Institutionso Department of Ecology, Environment & Forests (DoEEF)o Karnataka State Pollution Control Board (KSPCB)

1.4 Laws and regulations The following are the laws and regulation that are applicable with regard to social and environmental aspects of sub-projects under KMRP. Operational Policies and Directives of The World Bank Policy and Regulatory Framework of GoI Environmental Policy and Regulations of GoK Planning and Management of ULBs

1.5 Major Issues and ProposalsThe following are the major issues identified during the field work and public consultations. Some of the ULBs suffer from lack of proper and sustainable

water sources for improving the present water supply. The citizens feel that the water sources around the ULB need to be strengthened by way of protecting the catchment area

The citizenry wants rain water harvesting to be made compulsory and that the ULB office and Councilors set an example by having rain water harvesting structures before everybody in the ULB starts construction.

Some ULBs have solid waste management projects underway, while some have land purchased/ acquired for this purpose. In some ULBs, door to door collection of the solid waste is in practice with the involvement of this Residents Welfare Associations, and local NGOs. This experiment can be supported under KMRP.

Most of the ULBs lack Under Ground Sewerage system or have systems that are partially functioning which need improvements and remodeling.

In most of the ULBs, the Storm Water Drainage needs improvements and remodeling.

Samaj Vikas ([email protected]) 2

Karnataka Urban Infrastructure Development Finance CorporationKarnataka Municipal Reforms Project – Profile of ULBs

Citizens and peoples representatives want facilities like slaughter houses with modern waste treatment facilities; and mutton and fish markets outside the ULBs.

Citizens of some ULBs propose public private partnerships in developing commercial civic amenities, where private persons could provide the land and ULB could build the facilities under an agreement

Many of the citizens and elected representatives feel that local organizations like Mahila Mandals and youth clubs should be provided opportunities in the project.

Most of the citizens in the ULBs feel that the presently encroached areas parks, gardens and roads should be freed from the land sharks and encroachers.

1.6 Likely Sub-Projects Under KMRPThe following are the likely sub-projects proposed by ULBs for funding under KMRP. Water Supply: Improvements to source, treatment and

distribution and extensions to newly built areas and areas inhabited by weaker sections.

Under Ground Sewerage: New sewerage with Sewage Treatment Plant to remodeling and improvements to existing sewerage network and extensions to newly built areas and weaker sections localities.

Storm Water Drainage: Improvements to existing drainage, new drainage, extension to new areas, remodeling etc.

Solid Waste Management: Various facilities under SWM including scientific landfills

Transportation: Improvements to Roads, new CC roads and extensions to newly built areas and weaker sections localities

Street Lights: Additional Street lights Commercial Amenities: Shopping Complexes, Vegetable / Fish /

Mutton Markets, Slaughter Houses, parking lots, marriage halls, community halls

Common Amenities: Schools, Compound Walls, playgrounds, Construction of Parks and Gardens, improvements to water bodies, Hospital, Burial Ground and Crematorium

1.7 Potential ImpactsThe project as a whole is aimed at improving quality of living of the citizens of the concerned ULBs. As the sub-projects are yet to be proposed specific impacts (both positive and negative) have not been identified. However an assessment has been made on likely impacts. The significance of these impacts depends on the individual sub-project, its size and location. In general, the sub-projects are small in size, hence, the adverse impacts, if any, would be minimum.

Samaj Vikas ([email protected]) 3

Karnataka Urban Infrastructure Development Finance CorporationKarnataka Municipal Reforms Project – Profile of ULBs

1.7.1 Positive Impacts

These possible positive project impacts are listed below:

Productive use of time Improvements in income patterns Health and Environmental improvements Improvements in quality of life and human dignity Reduced nuisance of open defecation due to Low Cost Sanitation Less suffering during monsoons and adverse climatic conditions Improved public safety Better infrastructure and transportation facilities Improved access to services Opportunities for social interaction Improved community participation and sense of ownership

1.7.2 Negative Impacts

A. Social Impacts

Land Deprivation and Displacement Inconvenience and nuisance to Public during construction Social issues due to migration, social conflict, etc. Safety hazards Health Hazards

B. Environmental Impacts

Topography: these include erosion, disruption of drainage patterns, loss of top soils, etc.

Surface Water: These include reduced downstream flows, surface water pollution, degradation of riverbanks, etc.

Ground Water: These include groundwater pollution, dwindling groundwater table, etc.

Air Quality: These include temporary impacts during construction due to use of hot mix plants, generators, transportation equipment, etc. This category also includes dust generated due to earthwork excavation process.

Noise Levels: These include noise generated by use of equipment during construction and operation.

Samaj Vikas ([email protected]) 4

Karnataka Urban Infrastructure Development Finance CorporationKarnataka Municipal Reforms Project – Profile of ULBs

Ecological Resources: These include impacts due to cutting of trees, impacts on flora and fauna, organic waste problems, etc.

Other Impacts: These include other impacts like visual, damages to existing infrastructure, hazards, contamination, nuisance, disease, etc.

1.8 Mitigation MeasuresThe above identified negative impacts that could possibly arise during construction and/ or operation are addressed through procedures listed under the Social and Environmental Management Framework (SEMF). This Framework has a social and environmental categorization of sub-projects and Social and Environmental Mitigation measures. As the sub-projects are yet to be identified and Capital Investment Plans are yet to be prepared no ULB specific mitigation measures are identified and planned.

1.8.1 Social Mitigation

The negative social impacts could be mitigated by implementing the Rehabilitation and Resettlement (R&R) policy and entitlement framework given in the SEMF based on the category of the sub-project. The sub-projects are categorized as below:Sa – having more than 200 Project Affected Persons (PAPs)Sb – having between 1- 200 PAPsSc – having no PAPs

For Sa category projects an independent Social Assessment and Resettlement Action Plan will be prepared during the preparation and appraised along with the Detailed Project Report (DPR).

The Sb category will make use of the Entitlement Framework and a Social Management Plan will be prepared as a part of the DPR.

Sc category sub-project does not need any of these as there are no PAPs involved.

1.8.2 Environmental

The negative environmental impacts could be mitigated by the SEMF developed during the study and later adopted by the GoK. This SEMF categorizes the subprojects as below: Ea: Significant adverse environmental impacts Eb: Moderate adverse environmental impacts Ec: Minimal or no adverse environmental impacts

Samaj Vikas ([email protected]) 5

Karnataka Urban Infrastructure Development Finance CorporationKarnataka Municipal Reforms Project – Profile of ULBs

The Ea category sub-projects require conducting and preparation of Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) / Environment Management Plan (EMP) as the project may have diverse and significant environmental impacts.

The Eb category sub-projects require an EMP, which is to be prepared using the Guidance given in the Borrower’s Guidebook. This EMP becomes a part of the DPR, which is appraised by KUIDFC.

The Ec category sub-projects do not require preparation of any EIA or EMP, as these sub-projects have minimal or no environmental impacts.

1.9 Capacity BuildingIn order to build the social and environmental capacity of the ULBs, DUDCs, local Consultants, Resource persons, KUIDFC, etc. a Capacity Building plan for a period of 4 years with a budget of Rs. 20 Millions.

1.9.1 Communicating

As part of the Social and Environmental Assessment, a communication strategy has been developed, which will be followed to ensure informed participation of the local people in planning, implementing and monitoring sub-projects covered under KMRP.

1.9.2 Involvement of Women and Other Vulnerables

Based on the findings of the Social and Environmental Assessment, a strategy for involvement of Women and other Vulnerables has been developed so as to ensure that they are not adversely affected by the project interventions and to ensure access to projects benefits at par with other communities.

2 General Description of Urban Sector

2.1 IntroductionAs per Census of India, 2001 approximately 34% of Karnataka’s population (53 million) live in urban areas. In terms of urbanization, Karnataka is the fourth largest in India. Urban population growth in Karnataka is primarily due to natural population increase and migration from rural areas and other urban centres. Reclassification of urban centres has also contributed to increase in urban population to some extent. In Karnataka, the number of Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) have increased from 176 in 1991 to 222 in 2003. The type and number of ULBs as per the Directorate of Municipal Administration (DMA) is given below:

ULB Type NumberCity Corporations 6City Municipal Councils 40Town Municipal Councils 82Town Panchayats 89Notified Areas 5TOTAL 222

The high and rapid growth of urban centres has translated into greater pressure on the ULBs in terms of provision of basic civic amenities. When the ULBs could not cope up with the situation it resulted in gaping gaps in demand and supply.

2.2 Urban Institutional Framework in KarnatakaThe urban related activities are planned and implemented by a variety of institutions. The most important among them is the Urban Development Department (UDD), which has administrative control and oversees the urban related activities in the state. The UDD’s annual report includes the following among its responsibilities. Provision of urban infrastructure to ensure good services to the

citizens Provision of water supply and underground drainage systems to

ULBs Preparation of appropriate plans for balanced development of

ULBs Provision of residential sites and services to the weaker sections Maintenance of infrastructure in the ULBs Implementation of central, state and other plans in the ULBs Be responsible for the implementation of relevant legislations in

the sector

3.7 74th Constitutional AmendmentThe Constitutional 74th Amendment Act, 1992 is an initiative to decentralize power and strengthen democracy at the local level. This Amendment to the Constitution of India has brought in some radical changes in the way ULBs manage their business. This amendment has provided for regular conduction of free and fair elections to the ULBs by the State Election Commission. The provision of urban municipal services is covered under the Twelfth Schedule of the 74th Amendment to the Constitution of India. The concept of local-self government provides a framework for effective functioning of the ULBs to ensure provision of urban services and infrastructure. Besides the traditional core functions of municipalities, it also includes development functions like planning for economic development and social justice, urban poverty alleviation programmes and promotion of cultural, educational and aesthetic aspects. The municipalities are now involved in the preparation and implementation of local development plans and social justice programmes. To improve the financial health of the municipalities, the State Finance Commission has been set up and transfers are effected on an annual basis to the municipalities. In order to ensure people’s participation in the affairs of the municipalities, the Act provides for constitution of District and Metro Planning Committees. In line with this, the GoK is setting up District Urban Development Cells (DUDC) to support the ULBs. The Twelfth Schedule suggests the following functions and responsibilities to ULBs.

1. Urban planning including town planning2. Regulation of land use and construction of buildings3. Planning for economic and social development4. Roads and bridges5. Water supply for domestic, industrial and commercial purposes6. Public health, sanitation, conservancy, and solid waste

management7. Fire services8. Urban forestry, protection of the environment, and promotion of

ecological aspects9. Safeguarding the interests of weaker sections of society,

including the handicapped and mentally retarded10. Slum improvement and Upgradation11. Urban poverty alleviation12. Provision of urban amenities and facilities such as parks,

gardens and playgrounds13. Promotion of cultural, educational and aesthetic aspects14. Burials and burial grounds, cremation grounds, electric

crematorium15. Cattle pounds and prevention of cruelty to animals16. Vital statistics including registration of births and deaths

4 Proposed Project

4.1 Project backgroundPresently, the GoK is implementing many reforms programmes in the state. Prominent among these are the urban sector reforms efforts initiated by UDD. These reform measures are implemented through KUIDFC, DMA and DTP. In general, the EIPs under implementation by KUIDFC have many reforms components. At present, KUIDFC has initiated the preparation Karnataka Municipal Reforms Project (KMRP) with financial assistance from the World Bank (WB). The preparation is underway and appraisal should take place soon. Deficiency in urban infrastructure provision due to lack of financial resources and technical capacity and huge unmet urban public health and sanitation needs are the primary drivers for the initiation of the KMRP. Implementing 74th Constitutional Amendment in true letter and spirit is the context in which the KMRP is being undertaken. However, municipal financial capacity, municipal effort towards resource mobilization and ULBs commitment to implement reforms will be the primary drivers for investment under various project components.

4.2 Project ComponentsThe project components under the KMRP are grouped under four categories – two reforms and two investment components:A. Institutional Development & TA Component This component consists of the following Technical Assistance (TA) studies. A1. Computerization of Municipal function A2. TA to Town Planning Department A3. Implementation of new Accounting systems in ULBs A4. Project Development Advisory Facility A5. Capacity Building of ULBs including BMP A6. IEC and costs of experts to advice to KUIDFC and State

Departments

B. Investment Support Component B1. General Urban Investment Component: The sub-projects in this category include: Water Supply (improvements) Transportation Street Lighting Lakes and Water Bodies Development Commercial Civic Amenities Common Civic Amenities

Samaj Vikas ([email protected]) 16

B2. Public Health Investment Support: The sub-projects in this category include: Storm Water Drainage Sewerage and Sewage Treatment Plants (using appropriate

technology (low energy intensive and low-cost O&M) for small ULBs)

Municipal Solid Waste Management Low Cost Sanitation Public Conveniences

C. Bangalore Development Component C1. Capacity Building SupportC2. Investment Support: This include the following: Roads (improvements) Grade Separators Footpaths Storm Water Drainage

D. Incremental Operating Costs to KUIDFC

The project investments are to be performance based and demand driven. However, KUIDFC assumes the responsibility of financing all ULBs (committing to implement reforms) for tackling public health related sanitation investments. The first batch of ULBs selected for investments consist 17 ULBs and Bangalore. The list of first batch of 17 ULBs is as follows:

AthniBhadravathiChikkaballapurChikkamagalurChintamaniChitradurga

ChittapurDoddaballapur HassanKolarMadikeriRobertsonpet

SakleshpurSavanoorShimogaSringeriTiptur

4.3 Project ActivitiesThe ULBs would propose various sub-projects to KUIDFC for funding. Most of the sub-projects proposed would be either improvements to the existing systems or new systems. The sub-projects would be in the following sectors.

Water Sewage, Drainage and Sanitation Solid Waste Management Transportation (Roads and road related) Lighting and Signage Commercial Civic Amenities

Public Civic Amenities Urban Planning and Development4.4 Objectives of AssignmentIn order to mitigate adverse social and environmental impacts during planning and implementation of sub-projects under KMRP, KUIDFC has been designated by UDD to engage a social and environment consultant to undertake a combined social and environmental assessment and to prepare a framework for screening of sub-projects proposed by ULBs for funding under KMRP. Samaj Vikas has been sole sourced by KUIDFC for this assignment based on their performance in the earlier project Karnataka Urban Water Supply and Sanitation Sector Improvements Programme (KUWASSIP). During implementation, KUIDFC and participating ULBs will enhance their capacities to understand, coordinate and ensure effective implementation of Social and Environmental Management Framework. The specific objectives of the study are listed under.1. Conduct a combined Sectoral Social and Environmental Analyses

(SSEA);2. Develop a combined Social and Environmental Management

Framework (SEMF) for the projects that are likely to be proposed as part of this project;

3. Formulate a training and capacity building plan on social and environmental issues; and,

4. Develop a communication and consultation strategy.

4.5 MethodologyThe methodology used for the assignment is described below:

Secondary data collection and literature review Reconnaissance of first batch of ULBs Information collection at ULBs on Social and Environmental

issues Transects of ULBs and Direct Observations Sample socio-economic surveys of households Semi-structured to Partly-structured, Focus Group Discussions

and One to One meetings Water and Soil Sample collection and testing Discussions with local Environmentalists, NGOs, Professionals,

Consultants, Academicians, etc. Public Consultations

The socio-economic study conducted included a willingness to pay survey for various categories of services. Apart from the property tax and water tariff, a new category, viz.: Infrastructure Cess has been included to obtain the feelings of the citizens of the ULBs. Households’ willingness to pay solid waste collection fee has also been noted. The results and findings of the socio-economic and

Samaj Vikas ([email protected]) 18

5 Social and Environmental Impacts

5.1 Prediction of ImpactsAll the sub-projects aim to improve quality of living of the citizens of the ULBs. The significance of these listed impacts depends on the individual project, its size and location. The size of the projects would be small both physically and financially. Due to the likely small size of the sub-projects, adverse impacts, if any, would be at its minimum for the following reasons. The sub-projects are yet to be proposed Likely inclusion of new ULBs Significantly low social and environmental impacts Time lag between sub-project identification and implementation Socially and Environmentally relevant policies of KUIDFC

The following social and environmental impacts are predicted based on the assessment. The impacts could occur during the construction phase and/or operation phase. These possible positive impacts are listed below:

Productive use of time Improvements in income patterns Health and Environmental improvements Improvements in quality of life and human dignity Reduced nuisance of open defecation due to Low Cost Sanitation Less suffering during monsoons and adverse climatic conditions Improved public safety Better infrastructure and transportation facilities Improved access to services Opportunities for social interaction Improved community participation and sense of ownership

The adverse social and environmental impacts are listed below:

5.2 Social ImpactsThe proposed works may not have significant social impacts due to the nature, type and size of the works. However, the following social impacts could possibly arise out of the proposed projects: Deprivation and Displacement

o Due to acquisition of private residential or agricultural or commercial land

Inconvenience and nuisance to Publico Due to accumulation of excavated eartho Disturbance to traffic and resulting congestiono Disruption of utilities such as water, sewerage,

electricity, telephone, cable, etc.

Samaj Vikas ([email protected]) 20

Karnataka Urban Infrastructure Development Finance CorporationKarnataka Municipal Reforms Project – Profile of ULBs

Social issues o Social disruption in the area of constructiono Social unrest issues on construction siteso Regional labour issues

Safety hazardso To the households in the neighborhood during

constructiono Due to storage of chemicals, inundation of roadso Due to impact of vehicles on land outside RoWo Due to risk of accidents

Health Hazards o Due to stagnation of water leading to mosquito breeding

and public health problemso Due to spread of AIDS at construction siteso Due to surface water pollutiono Due to groundwater pollution

The above negative social impacts could be mitigated by implementing an appropriate R&R policy and entitlement framework along with proper implementation of the Environmental Management Framework.

5.3 Environmental Impacts

5.3.1 Impacts on Topography

There will not be major adverse impacts on the topography due to the sub-projects to be proposed except for the following temporary impacts, which could be mitigated using the specified mitigation measures. Erosion and sedimentation Temporary disruption of natural drainage pattern Loss of fertile top soil of the agriculture lands Accumulation of excess excavated earth in the area of

construction and operation Excess earth and debris blockage and change in drainage pattern Changes to hydrological regime, increased flooding, siltation

hampering stream flows, etc.

5.3.2 Impacts on Climate

No changes in climatic conditions or impacts on climate are anticipated due to the sub-projects to be proposed as part of the KMRP.

5.3.3 Impact on Surface Water

Samaj Vikas ([email protected]) 21

Karnataka Urban Infrastructure Development Finance CorporationKarnataka Municipal Reforms Project – Profile of ULBs

No Sub-project activities during construction or operations are expected to interfere with the surface water characteristic of the respective ULBs. Hence, impacts on surface water are not anticipated. The following temporary impacts are identified.

Reduced flow to the down stream users Surface water pollution due to discharge of sludge and effluent Degradation of river banks due to excavation and construction

activities Overflow of sewage causing pollution in channels and water

bodies

5.3.4 Impact on Ground Water

No Sub-project activities during construction or operations are expected to interfere with the ground water characteristic of the respective ULBs. Hence, impacts on ground water are not anticipated. The following temporary impacts are identified.

Groundwater pollution due to discharge of sludge and effluent Lowering of groundwater table due to pumping of water during

excavation Groundwater pollution due to leachates from solid waste

5.3.5 Impacts on Air Quality

During the construction phase excavation process, suspended particulate matter and dust are major sources of pollution impairing air quality. However, on construction sites the impact on air quality due to the sub-project is likely to be higher. During construction and sometimes during operation, use of hot mix plants, generators, transportation and lifting machinery will be unavoidable. Emissions from the exhaust of these are likely to cause localized and temporary air quality impacts.

Adequate dust suppression measures and protective measures to the work force will significantly reduce impacts. As the sub-projects to be proposed would be small by nature, the impact of air pollution will not be very significant. Since these impacts are temporary, adequate precautions during the construction period will mitigate them.

There will not be any significant air quality impacts during the operation phase of the sub-projects.

However, the following possible impacts are listed. Increased dust levels due to earth work excavation and

construction activities

Samaj Vikas ([email protected]) 22

Karnataka Urban Infrastructure Development Finance CorporationKarnataka Municipal Reforms Project – Profile of ULBs

Increased air pollution and smell Air pollution through ventilating shafts of machinery, plant and

equipment

5.3.6 Impact on Noise Levels

Movement of vehicles transporting construction material and noise generating activities at the construction site, are major sources of noise pollution during construction. Material movement and associated work are the primary noise generating activities on site. These will be distributed over the entire construction period. Construction activities are expected to produce noise levels that can affect the personnel working on site. Activities involving vehicles, plant and equipment in the close proximity of households will have an adverse impact due to noise pollution. These impacts are temporary and limited to the construction phase.

Except during regular maintenance activities, no noise generating activities are envisaged during the sub-projects operation phase. Hence, no noise impacts are predicted.

However, the following possible impacts are listed. Increased Noise Levels during Construction Noise due to movement of vehicles Increased Noise Levels during operation Noise impact due to operation of DG sets

5.3.7 Impact on soils

No impact on soils is envisaged at the moment. However, there could be some impact on soil and shallow groundwater characteristics due to the leachates from the landfills. This could be mitigated using the methods suggested in the SEMF.

5.3.8 Impact on Ecological Resources

The sub-project activities do not involve encroachment of sensitive environmental features or cutting of trees or removal of vegetation. The proposed ULBs are not in an eco-sensitive zone or coastal zone. Hence, there will not be any adverse ecological impacts due to the project as the project activities are confined to the ULBs. However, the following impacts are enumerated to be taken care of in the SEMF. Ecological impacts due to cutting of trees Bird menace and littering of meat pieces and animal organs Increased organic waste problem Increased pest problem (rats and birds)

Samaj Vikas ([email protected]) 23

Karnataka Urban Infrastructure Development Finance CorporationKarnataka Municipal Reforms Project – Profile of ULBs

5.3.9 Impact on cultural resources

No adverse impacts are foreseen to the cultural resources or relics in the ULBs due the sub-projects to be proposed.

5.3.10 Other Issues

Visual Disruption to visual resources Standing out as Eyesore in the surroundings Ugly and unsightly conditions

Damage Damage to road surface /other utilities

Hazards Hazards due to storage of chemicals Handling of hazardous waste Health hazards from bio-medical waste Projection/depression of manhole covers on the road surface

causing inconvenience to public and leading to accidents

Contamination Contamination by human waste/ excreta Contamination by organic waste Cross contamination of water supply pipeline

Nuisance Stagnation of sewage, odor problem Storage of materials causing disturbance to public and traffic Leakage causing nuisance Waste degradation and odour nuisance due to long accumulation

/storage Accumulation of inorganic wastes Odour and fly nuisance

Disease Disease transmission and Public Health issues Spills of solid waste enroute disposal sites/ landfills Health hazards from non-bio degradable waste

Other Plying vehicles on unpaved roads Stagnation of water inside facilities and on roads Tree branches obstructing the vision of the drivers of vehicles Oil spillages

5.4 Water and Soil TestingWater and soil samples from the 17 ULBs are tested for various parameters. These are one-off sample picked to give an indication of type of water and soil. The samples are picked from all parts of the town, i.e., centre, north, east, west and south. To get a good understanding of the water and soils in the town, regular monitoring of quality is necessary. The town wise results are summarized and given in chapter 7.

5.5 Lessons learnt from study for SEMFThe study has thrown up certain general types of social and environmental impacts that could possibly arise during construction and/ or operation. The Capital Investment Programmes (CIP) are yet to be prepared by the ULBs, for the reason that the project is taking a final shape. As this situation was envisaged beforehand, KUIDFC went for preparation of SEMF for KMRP. This SEMF has a social and environmental categorization of sub-projects and Social and Environmental Mitigation measures in Section B. As the sub-projects are yet to be identified and CIPs are yet to be prepared no ULB specific mitigation measures could be identified. A summary of likely impacts table is given below for reference.
