1.5 Project description

3.3.1. The medium voltage wirelines energize the newly built transformer stations.

a) Medium voltage wireline

Medium voltage DZ line is 30.785 km long. Generally, the MV lines pass the rice

paddy fields, some sections trepass the mixed tree hills. In Dao Thinh commune – Tran Yen

district, the line trepasses the cemetery area from G1 terminal to the sub-station.

In addition, some routes trepass the springs, some ditches and small ponds in

communes of Nga Quan, Dao, Viet Thanh, Nghia Tam, Thach Luong, Dai Minh, To Mau,

Minh Tien, Vinh Lac and Mo De. At the bypass of Cua Ngoi Transformer Sub-station (G1

terminal to the substation) under To Mau commune – Luc Yen district, the route passes the

Chay River.

b) Transformer sub-stations

The sub-stations are located in the corner of cultural house (in Nguyen Thai hoc, Hanh

Son, Tan Thinh district), nearly Yen Bai City's Public Security (in Nguyen Thai hoc district).

Others are located in rice paddy field. (Althought, the line passes the hill but sub-stations are

not located in here).

c) Low Voltage Wirelines

Rehabilitation of the current lines: It would pass the old route; disqualified wires, beams,

insulators or poles shall be replaced.

New construction of the lines: It would mainly pass the removed lines. Some of them would

be completely newly constructed, inserting into alleys, bypasses or along the village paths

connecting with newly built routes. The completely new routes would be used to energize

some households who are minor ethinic people (Tay, Dao, Nung, Thai, Muong, San Diu and

Cao Lan) residing in small villages far from the center and the Power industry is unaffordable

to invest in the power grid to energize them. Because the occupation area of the LV

foundation is insignificant, the LV lines would cause small impacts on households. However,

for trees in the unsafe route corridor as stipulated in the power grid safety codes shall be cut

off and the local people shall receive proper compensation, accordingly.

IV. SUMMARY OF NATURAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS OF THE

PROJECT SITE

a) Geological position and natural area:

Being a mountainous provice deeply located in the continent, Yen Bai is one of 13

Northern mountainous provinces lying between the Northeast and Northwest areas. Its North

borders with Lao Cai province, its South borders with Phu Tho province, its East borders with

two provinces of Ha Giang and Tuyen Quang and its West borders with Son La province. Yen

Bai is the home of 9 administrative units (1 city, 1 town and 7 districts) with total 180

communes, wards and towns (159 communes and 21 wards and towns).

Its total natural land area is 688,627.64 hectares, In which 583,717.47 hectares, 51,713.13

hectares and 53,197.04 hectares of agricultural land area, non-agricultural land area and

unused land area, making up 84.76%, 7.51% and 7.73% of natural land area, respectively.

b) Topography, climate and hydrography:

* Topography:

Being is situated in the Northern mountainous area, Yen Bai is characterized by gradually

high topography from the Southeast to Northwest and formed by 3 large mountain ranges

with the same direction from Northwest to Southeast: Its West is characterized by Hoang Lien

Son - Pu Luong range between Hong River and Da River, the next is the Con Voi ancient

mountain range between Hong River and Chay River; whereas its East has limestone

mountain range between Chay River and Lo River. In spite of relatively complicated

topography, it is possible to divide into 2 large areas namely high and low areas. The high



area has the average elevation of 600m and above, accounting for 67.56% of the entire

province. This area is characterized by scattered population, high potential on land, forestry

products, minerals and socio-economic development. While the low area has the elevation of

under 600m, mainly low mountainous terrain, apron valley, accounting for 32.44 % of natural

area of the province.

* Climate:

- Yen Bai is located in the tropical moonson climate range with average temperature of

22 - 230C; average rainfall of 1,500 – 2,200 mm/year and average humidit of 83 – 87%. Yen

Bai can be divided into 5 climatic subregions by climate and topography factors. Mu Cang

Chai subregion is characterized by average elevation of 900m, average temperature of 18 –

200C which sometimes reduce to under 0

0C in winter. Van Chan – Nam Van Chan subregion

is characterized by average elevation of 800m, average temperature of 18 – 200C. Its North is

the heavy rain subregion and its South is the least rainfaill region in the province. Van Chan –

Tu Le subregion has average elevation of 200 – 400m and average temperature of 21 – 320C.

Subrehion of the Southern Tran Yen- Van Yen, Yen Bai city, Ba Khe has average elevation of

70m and average temperature of 23 – 240C which has the most frequent drizzle rain in the

province.

* Hydrography:

There are two main river systems namely Hong River and Chay River which share the

same flow direction of Northwest and Southeast. In addition, approximately 200 canals, large

and small springs are available with the lake and damp system

c) Population and administration structure:

* Population:

In 2010, total population of the province was 752,22 persons. The average population

density was 109 persons/km2, concentrating in some urban areas such as Yen Bai city, Nghia

Lo town, and other towns and districts.

According to the survey, Yen Bai was the home of up to 30 minor ethinics including 7

ethnics with population of over 10,000 persons. 2 ethnics had from 2,000 – 5,000 persons, 3

ethnics had from 500 -2,000 persons, including, 49.6%, 18.58%, 10.31%, 8.9%, 6.7% and 1%

of Kinh, Tay, dao, H’Mong, Thai, cao Lan and others, respectively.

d) The cultural and social fields:

* Healthcare:

In 2010, the province was the home of 45 healthcare facilities with 1,744 beds. Rate of

bed/10,000 persons was 35.35/10,000 people. Total communes qualfied with the national

standard on healthcare was 141, accounting for 83.33%. Total medical officials were 3,113

persons. Rate of doctors was 6.8 doctors/10,000 persons.

V. POTENTIAL IMPACTS

The Project shall pay an essential role in electricfication and poverty elemination

program in 13 communes of 10 districts of the Project. It also strengthens the industrialization

and modernization to create a development premise in rural poor areas.

When the power supply lines are constructed, the local people tend to remove to reside

in the energizing areas. The local authority must launch stabilization plans, including: road

expansion, residential areas, industrial and agricultural development, etc. Communes, districts

and provinces shall carry out such plans.

The social- economic benefits offered by the Project are significant, this is detailed in

the general statement volume of the feasibility study report. Moreover, the project may cause

http://www.yenbai.gov.vn/vi/Pages/chitiethatangyte.aspx







the socio-economic and environmental impacts at the localities. By applying the environment

screening data statistic method and basic list of environment as guided in the environmental

safety framework applicable to the rural project, the potential impacts are described as

follows:

Rivers and reservoirs

X

- Bypass of MV lines energizing Cua Ngoi

substation passes Ngoi River. The column

position is over 60m of two spring banks,

no impacts are found.

Channels and

irrigation system

X

- The MV lines trepass some ditches and

small ponds in communes of Nga Quan,

Dao, Viet Thanh, Nghia Tam, Thach

Luong, Dai Minh, To Mau, Minh Tien,

Vinh Lac and Mo De, Pung Luong.

However, pile foundation is not

constructed but the lines only overpass.

Therefore, no impacts are found.




2.Potential

environmental impacts

- Invasion of

cultural/historical sites X

- Enroaching the

ecosystem X

- Deforming landscape

and increasing waste

X

- Vegetation area (mainly savanna and

brushes) reduces due to safety corridor

clearance and pile foundation construction

- Land and construction materials may be

left in the site

- Removing vegetation or

trees to clear site at the

substation and along the

route corridor?

X

- The over 4m high trees shall be cut off

whereas the low vegetations such as

brushes and savanna are remained

unchanged.

- During site clearance, there are 805

eucalyptuses (252 permanently affected

trees, 553 temporarily affected trees) and

219 longan trees (90 permanently affected

trees and 129 temporarily affected trees)

are cut off. Besides, the wiring and column

erection to be conducted cause impacts on

7,430 m2 of rice (6,324 m2 permanently

affected rice area and 1,106 m2

temporarily affected rice area)

- Change of surface water

or water flow quality X

-

- Increase of water

impurity due to eroding

by surface water flow

X

- Water impurity may be higher due to soil

sediment from column digging,

discharging on springs, rivers, ponds and

reservoirs towards the water flow.

Especially, communes under My Cang

Chai district exist erosion, affecting local

flow if construction is conducted in rainy

season. Because the project is mainly

launched in flat terrain, risk of erosion and

washout of various types of soild and

construction materials is not high.

- Does waste water from

camps directly discharge

into water surface area? X

- Builders mainly hire accommodation from

the local people, hence, domestic waste

shall be collected into the general waste

water system.




- Does waste water from

construction directly

discharge into water

surface area?

X

- Waste water from construction mainly

serves for concreting pile foundation,

hence, discharging into the surface water

source is negligible. It only exists in rainy

condition.

- Is dust level increased?

X

- Dust is caused by earthworks, especially in

dry season

- Dust is caused by means of transportation

of materials and equipment during

Project’s construction.

- Is noise and/or vibration

increased?

X

- Noise during construction must comply

with the Noise code QCVN

26:2010/BTNMT. Noise caused by

construction vehicles during construction is

negible because of the Project’s small scale

and short-term construction period.

- Noise and vibration is caused by

Equipment, material transportation, means

of transportation of the project, erection of

column and wiring, generator (if any)

- Permanent land recovery

X

- Permanent land recovery is mainly

conducted in positions of pile foundation

and substation construction with 40

affected households.

- Total reclaimed permanentland area is

4,623 m2 including 1,106m2, 711 m2 and

2,806m2 of agriculture, hill and forest and

public land along the traffic road,

respectively.

-

- Temporary land

recovery

X

- Production land shall be mobilized for a

short time along the lines and warehouse

positions to construct with 66 affected

households including 40 minor ethnic

households.

- Total reclaimed temporary land area is

27,640 m2 including 9,290m2, 5,550 m2

and 12,800m2 of agriculture, hill and forest

and public land along the traffic road,

respectively.

- Is required to remove

households? X

- No households are required to remove by

the Project.




- Is the resettlement area

sentitive to environment

and/or culture?

X

-

- Risk for disease

emission from

construction workers to

local people (and vice

versa)

X

- Each worker group shall be hired when

constructing project in each commune

including 15 persons in stead of

concentrated residence. Therefore, disease

emission is restricted.

- Potential conflict

between construction

workers and local people

X

- Conflict can be available due to following

reasons: (i) difference in income, culture

and behaviors (ii) most of construction

areas have minor ethnic people, hence,

social conflict may be due to insufficient

awareness of customs of local people.

However, workers are mainly local people

without significant difference in culture

and lifestyle;

- The local labor is mainly employed in the

project, hence, quantity of workers is very

few against the total number of local

people.

- Explosive substances or

hazardous chemicals in

the project

X

- Explosive substances and hazardous

chemicals are not used in the project.

- Previously, unexploded

ordinances or explosive

materials left from the war X

- This area is highly used by the local people

and authority. No risks on unexploded

ordinances or explosive materials left from

the war are found.

- Project construction

causes the local traffic

disorder. X

- Activities of transporting materials,

equipment, earthworks and column

erection affect the normal traffic in the area

within a short period of time.

- Project construction

causes damages to the

available traffic road

system X

- Trucks transporting steel columns have a

relatively high load (10-20 tons), the

available roads can be degraded.

Moreover, quality of the rural roads is not

so good in nature.

- The mitigation measures described in

Section VI will also be implemented

- Earthworks during

construction cause erosion X

- Although terrain of the subproject areas is

mainly mountainous with high landslide

risk, foundation excavation would be

carried out on a relatively flat area, and




some short sections run along the low hills,

so the erosion risk is not high

- Regarding soil erosion, this impact is

regarded as negligible due to small scale of

related activities, short-time occurance and

negligible affected area. Moreover, such

impacts can be futher minimized when

mitigation measures are applied, especially

construction in rainy season.

- Is it required to open a

new service road?

X

- The Project is launched in communes

where the traffic condition is relatively

favorable with available intercommunal

and inter-village roads and pathway.

Therefore, temporary road is not required

to transport materials and equipment

during construction.

- Does the Project cause

living environment break

of flora and fauna?

X

- Some trees should be cut off. However,

such trees are general categories such as

industrial trees and fruit trees (eucalyptus

and longan).

- Some small insects and animals losing its

living environment are general species.

The area of losing ecology environment is

smaller than that of entire affected

ecosystem.

- The main ecosystem affected by the

Project is agricultural area, industrial

afforestation and brush along the road, etc.

- The Project does not invade any reserves,

national forest, and so forth.

- Is the Project affected on

air quality? X

- The impacts on environment is negligible

due to emissions of vehicles during

material transportation with cover and

falling prevention.

- Is it caused risk on

accidents for workers and

community during

construction?

X

- Accidents may be available if specific

safety measures are not properly

concerned.

- Does the Project release

hazardous waste including

PCB due to replacing

transformers?

X

- Construst new 27 substations (not replace).

The quanlity of substation keep EVN’s

regulation about the PCB to be not used.





any risk for people helth

(electro magnetic field,

Electric shock, etc)?

X

- The transmission lines shall be designed

and constructed in accordance with

applicable standards of power industry (in

accordance with Vietnam applicable

technical regulations, electromagnetic field

(EMF) < 5 kV/m), wherein impacts from

EMF and safety standards and operation

safety have to be taken into due account.

- Prior to operation, all safety indicators

shall be tested and accepted by the project

owner, contractor and operation entity

therefore workers shall not be suffering

from such EMF impacts.

- In the phase of commissioning, the safety

in power use of households of ethinic

minorities who use electricity for the first

time also needs to be paid attention to

minimize the risk of electric shock.

However, this impact is very little and

avoidable if the people are trained well in

safe power use.

- The mitigation measures in Section VI will

also be implemented to minimise safety

risks

station. However, it

only affects the wiring

without column

foundation excavation

at the area near the

cemetery, etc.

- Stretching to take sag by mechanical hoist

shall reduce labor volume in the wiring areas.

- During wiring, workers must go along the

pathway, paddy field path without stepping in

tombs. The construction period shall be

finished in the day After finishing the wiring,

materials and waste should be collected to

recover the environmental landscape.

Power is cut off in the

crossing lines,

affecting domestic and

production activities

within the area cutting

off power.

- In order to cut power off in a long period of

time when wiring 0.4kV lines, the scarfolding

measure should be taken by the Contractor.

work directly with the power management

team of the commune and village to cut off

power and avoid cut off power at peak hours.

Such team shall release advance notice on

power cut off so that the local people can



arrange their production and domestic plans.

- When scarfolding is finished, power should

be switched on and then new wiring is

conducted.

Location of

transformer and

medium-voltage lines

passing through rice

fields, forested hills

and some canals will

affect the public

drainage, irrigation

system if no any

mitigation measures

are provided during

construction

- Before construction, workers will be

reminded not to leave rock and soil fill up the

canals drainage systems, and field irrigation

system.

- Safety construction measures shall be

carefully studied in order to not impact to the

existing irrigation system.

- Materials and refuses must be removed to

reinstate the landscape and environment after

completion of construction.

In the subproject, there

are some minor repairs

and replacements of

low-voltage lines,

power posts. If it is not

carefully handled these

waste materials will

impact to environment.

- Most of removed material will be reused for

the Works which suitable with such type of

materials. Waste slagges collected and treated

by workers (who are hired at local resources).

(Selling or collecting slagges to the dump

area of hamlet as regulated)

Volume of waste

excavated soil is more

than 200m3

(Excavated soil:

873m3 and soil for

foundation

embankment: 613m3

needed) so that if not

treated they will

impact to local

environment of project

Volume of waste excavated soil is given to

workers hired from the local using for daming up

and elevating their home.
