2 PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND CURRENT ACTIVITIES
2.1 Project Description
5. The Amu Bukhara Irrigation System (ABIS) Rehabilitation Project is located in the
central part of Uzbekistan on the right bank of Amu Darya River bordering to
Turkmenistan. Bukhara is 563 km far from the capital Tashkent. The project covers
lands of Bukhara and Navoi provinces. The ABIS is very important for the area and
gives life as an oasis.
6. The ABIS supplies water to already irrigated lands, cities, settlements, and industries
in Bukhara and Navoi provinces through a series of large cascading pump stations and
thousands of kilometers of conveyance canals. It also drains the excess water through
drainage system outside of the project area.
7. The ABIS, with a command area of 315,000 ha, serves the irrigated lands of the
Bukhara Zarafshan and Karakul oases and the Karaul Bazar massif. The population in
the ABIS command area is about 1,788,000 people, including 1,550,000 in Bukhara
and 239,000 in two districts of Navoi, of which 68% live in rural areas and fully rely on
irrigated agriculture. It is particularly important to supply reliable water to these people
in the region. ABIS also supplies water for municipal and industrial purposes.
8. The aim of the Project is to improve the irrigated agriculture and water resources
management in the ABIS, with the goal of promoting sustainable economic and
social welfare of communities dependent upon ABIS. The Project objectives are:
a) modernization and rehabilitation of obsolete pump stations;

b) increase of conveyance efficiency in ABIS main canal;
c) increase climate change adaptation capacity; and
d) increase efficiency of project management and irrigation system
management.

3.5 Unanticipated Environmental Impacts or Risks
51. During the reporting period (January 1st ,2020 – June 30th, 2020) the outbreak of
Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) was first identified in Wuhan, China, in December
2019 and news about the extensive case has been reported in January 2020 and
implementation of entry restrictions on 18, February 2020 as well as additional anti-
COVID 19 measures have been considered as unanticipated environmental impact.
15 July 2020 18
4 RESULTS OF ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING
4.1 Overview of Monitoring Conducted during Current Period
52. When the outbreak of Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) was first identified in Wuhan,
China, in December 2019 and news about the extensive case has been reported in
January 2020, PIU/SC agreed to inform the Chinese Contractors for taking measures to
avoid spreading out the COVID-19. It has been requested from the Chinese Contractors
to perform medical inquiry of the staff who returned from China on last week of January.
Uzbek authorities implemented entry restrictions on 18, February 2020 and extended
these restrictions until 01/08/2020. The Chinese contactors have started to apply the
training, health and safety procedures and disinfected the working camp, vehicles,
construction area within the scope of COVID-19 protection measures.
53. According to EMP, Contractors are responsible for conduction of environmental
monitoring activities for environmental impacts caused during the construction. These
monitoring activities are based on visual observations. There are no more requirements
on environmental monitoring included in EMP and as following in SEMP’s submitted by
the Contractors. Submitted EMR of each contractor includes the monitoring results of
environmental and health and safety activities. Contractor of Construction of Amu
Bukhara 1 NEW Pump Station (ABISRP 01) has not submitted any EMR since its SEMP
hasn’t approved yet. The Contractor of Modernization and Rehabilitation of Amu
Bukhara Main Canal Regulating Structure (ABISRP 02) does not submit any EMR. The
Contractor of modernization and Rehabilitation of Kuyu Mazar and Kizil Tepa Pump
Stations (ABISRP 03) submits regularly EMR for Kuyu Mazar and Kizil Tepa Pump
Station construction sites.
54. During the reporting period no complaints were received from people living in nearby
residential areas for any construction site. In case of receiving such complains, further
elaboration in environmental monitoring activities and solving and or settling the
problematic issues needed.
4.1.1 Air Emissions and Ambient Air Quality
55. At all the construction sites appropriate measures were taken to prevent the pollution of
atmospheric air, to limit the dust level from working vehicles and enforce strict
observance of safety rules at main road crossing, along main roads, the mahalla streets
and near sub-project construction sites.
56. While excavation and transportation of excavating materials, additional environmental
requirements were followed: Schedule transportation activities by avoiding peak traffic
15 July 2020 19
periods; Use tarpaulins to cover loose material that is transported to and from the site
by truck.
57. Inspection of exhaust emissions of vehicles and machinery used has been controlled in
Uzbekistan with a regulation named “Implementation of Mandatory Technical Inspection
of Vehicles the Machinery” and numbered 54 which is in force since January 31st, 2003.
Each Contractor should hold a valid permission for the vehicles and machineries used
in the construction activities. Therefore, the vehicles and machineries used in
construction activities do not exceed limits as far as they hold a valid permission from
relevant Government authorities.
58. According to the IEE the nature of the project activities, will not generate significant
quantities of emissions, therefore visual monitoring of dust has been envisaged at the
Environmental Management Plan of the project. Since there is not any change in the
main project activities, no need for monitoring of air quality except the method stated in
Environmental Management Plan given at IEE:
4.1.2 Wastewater and Ambient Water Quality
59. The Contractor of Construction of Amu Bukhara 1 NEW Pump Station (ABISRP 01) is
constructing the working camp area with septic tanks and toilet facilities. Temporary
toilets exist in the field.
60. The toilet facilities for Contract ABISRP 02 exist in the Peresechenie regulator area. But
their conditions are poor. Since the number of workers are less in number, the
wastewater produced during the daily activities have been directly filtered to the ground.
The contamination risk of these effluents to the canals are low.
61. Closed septic tanks exit both for Kuyu Mazar Pump Station (ABISRP 03.1) and
Modernization and Rehabilitation of Kizil Tepa Pump Station (ABISRP 03.2) camp sites.
The collected sewage has been transferred by septic tank trucks to disposal site. In the
working field workers use toilets located at the existing pump stations.
62. During the canal cleaning works it is unavoidable to form temporary turbidity and
sediment problems. Existing water quality of the irrigation water turbid and high in
sediment amount, therefore this temporary effect could not be differentiated, unless the
sediment amount is measured before and during the cleaning activity.
4.1.3 Noise
63. The contractors have fit the daily regular working hours. It has been reported in EMR of
Contractors to use new equipment and vehicle which is appropriate for the Occupational
Health and Safety Noise levels. Since no grievance has been received from the public
it has been considered that noise level does not have any effect on public.
15 July 2020 20
64. The Uzbek national construction noise norms that are relevant to all stages of the
construction phase are provided by law KMK 2.01.08-96 ―Protection from noise

2.3 Nearest Receptor to the Working Areas
The nearest receptor to the Amu Bukhara 1 New Pump Station (ABISRP 01) Construction site
is the settlement area (houses) which has been located approximately 250 m northwest.
2.4 Climatological Properties at Construction Site
The desert and steppe landforms that comprise the region influence the sharply continental,
arid character of the climate. This continental climate is characterized by cold winters and hot,
dry summers. During the summers there are strong winds that carry sand and dust.
Average air temperature in January is 8°С in the north, and 2°С in the south. Summer is long,
hot and dry; average air temperature in July of 28°С. The annual average air temperature is
16.0°С. The average monthly minimum temperature of the coldest month is -3.0°С, and the
average monthly maximum temperature of the hottest month is 37.2°С.
There is high solar radiation up to 150 kcal and more is characteristic of this region. The
average number of sunny days per year is 300.
There are 217 frost-free days per year. The annual precipitation is 125 mm to 175 mm.
AIII-3
15 July 2020
Winds from the north and north northwest (23.6% and 19.8% respectively) predominate in the
city of Bukhara. Usually there are winds with the speed of 2-3 m/s and 4-5 m/s, their probability
of occurrence is 37.6% and 33.1%. The probability that light breezes (0-1 m/s) occur is 11.5%
of the time. The low probability of light breezes occurring is beneficial for stronger winds
promote the dispersion of air pollutants. The relative humidity data according to the closest
available data measured was in Samarkand meteorological station. Based on the observations
made between 1961-1990 the relative average humidity value is 58,58%.
