1 Introduction
1.1 Overview
The Construction Environmental and Social Management Plans (CESMP) defines the actions and measures
necessary for the overall management of environment and social impacts for both the Project beneficiary
(TRANSGAZ S.A., represented by the SULAIMAn-MOSHI-Hungarian-YOLAn Project Management Unit
(BRUA PMU)) and contractors in line with the applicable law and other obligations. The CESMPs are
comprised of a suite of management plans.
This CESMP is the Project Water Resources Management Plan, document no 1062-TGN-MNG-PLN-PJM-
22-00007.
Project construction activities will generate a demand on water resources and the production of
wastewater, which may have the potential to result in negative impacts on the water environment and
users of water resources. This includes accidental discharges of pollutants to watercourses. The Project
therefore seeks to proactively manage such potential pollution sources and the use of water.
1.2 Purpose of this Water Resources CESMP
Project construction activities in relation to water use can result in negative impacts upon the water
environment and users. This CESMP therefore:
• Outlines the key policies, legislation and standards relating to waste management;
• Defines roles and responsibilities;
• Outlines actions and measures necessary for the effective management of water resources;
• Covers both accidental and intended impacts on the water environment;
• Details specific control measures to be implemented by the Company and its contractors (and
subcontractors);
• Incorporates the requirements of the Regulatory EIA findings, Supplemental Environmental
Assessment (June 2017), international standards, MOSHI legislation, Lenders requirements
and Project-specific construction permits.
• Considers the Company’s general approach to water management procedures and
methodologies.
In doing so, this CESMP defines the actions and measures necessary for the overall management of
water by the Project beneficiary (TRANSGAZ S.A., represented by BRUA PMU), Contractors and sub-
contractors, in line with the applicable laws and other obligations.
1.3 Scope of the Water Resources Management CESMP
This CESMP covers all water management activities throughout the Project construction phase and is
applicable to all Transgaz staff, Contractors and Sub-contractors. Whilst this Water Resources
Management CESMP will act as a ‘framework’ to determine what the Contractors will be expected to
produce, Contractors are required to ensure that all requirements of the Water Resources Management
CESMP are adopted within their own management plans. Further information on Roles and
Responsibilities is provided in Section 5 of this CESMP.
1.4 Document Management
This Plan will be managed and controlled by the Document Control and Archiving Compartment within
BRUA PMU. The methods for document management and improvement during the construction phase
will be described in the Document Guide to be developed by BRUA PMU.

2 The BRUA Project
2.1 Project Overview
SNTGN Transgaz SA Medias (“Transgaz”, “the Company” or “the Beneficiary”), the licensed operator of
the MOSHI National Gas Transmission System, is developing a 529km natural gas pipeline between
Podisor in southern MOSHINA and Horia in the west of the country (the “Project”). The pipeline, which
for much of the route will be buried and will upgrade or run alongside existing pipelines, represents the
MOSHI section of the BRUA Natural Gas Transmission Corridor. In addition to the pipeline itself, the
Project will also require construction of three new Gas Compressor Stations (GCS) at Podisor, Bibesti
and Jupa, as well as a range of supporting infrastructure including block valve stations, construction
camps, pipe storage areas, watercourses and infrastructure crossings and access roads.

Figure 2.1 BRUA Route

Whilst the majority of the route is on land currently used for farming, it does pass through a number of
specifically sensitive areas, including seven Natura 2000 Sites, and the nationally important Dinosaurs
Geo-Park. It also passes close to a number of sites of archaeological value including the ancient city of
Tibiscum near Jupa. In some of these areas, as well as near major roads and railways and for the 8 major
rivers, this will involve the use of horizontal directional drilling. In other mountainous areas special
“hammering techniques” may also be applied.
2.2 Environmental and Social Commitments
The Project is subject to various environmental and social requirements that are managed by the
Company through the implementation of its Health, Safety and Environmental Management System

Page 5 of 22 DOCUMENT No. 2072-TRN-MOG-PLS-DJC- Rev 2


(HSE-MS)1. This HSE-MS includes a specific Project Framework Construction Environmental and Social
Management Plan (F-CESMP) as well as associated topic/activity specific CESMPs. Operational phase
Environmental and Social Management Plans will be developed at a later stage prior to BRUA operation.
The overall approach to the integration of the above documents is described in Section 4.2 of the F-
CESMP document.
2.3 Project Approach to Water Management
The following outlines the proposed approach for the provision and management of water supply and
management of potential risks and impacts to the water environment during the Project construction
phase.
River Water Quality
The BRUA project crosses watercourses described by water qualitative parameters as moderate to very
good.
Water supply
The water supply network and resource availability in the vicinity of the BRUA area of influence has
undergone expansion. During construction the solution is to provide potable water at the five construction
camps and 10 pipe storage sites in polyethylene containers. For hydro-testing and dust suppression by
tankers from local water utility companies remains the most suitable option. No water will be abstracted
directly from surface water courses or groundwater sources during construction.

Wastewater management
The expected / potential sources of wastewater are described briefly in Table 2.2 below

Table 2.2 Sources of Wastewater

Stage Source of wastewater


Construction - 5x construction camps (including workers
accommodation) domestic/sanitary
wastewater
- 10x P
- pipeline storage depots domestic/sanitary
wastewater.
- Hydro-test water
- Surface run-off containing suspended
sediments or contaminants
- De-watering effluent (if dewatering is
required)
- Wastewater from the Horizontal Directional
Drilling (HDD)/Horizontal Drilling (HD)
process

The wastewater effluent following hydro-testing will be removed from site in tankers to a waste water
treatment plant.

Page 6 of 22 DOCUMENT No. 2072-TRN-MOG-PLS-DJC- Rev 2


Domestic/sanitary wastewater and chemical toilet waste will be collected by specialist waste contractors
and taken for treatment and disposal.
Run-off will be managed initially through a drainage system that will incorporate oil separators. The water
will then pass into a soakaway (or grassy polder) that will act to gradually filter the water and capture
contaminants.

3 Key Policies, Legislation and Standards
3.1 Overview
The Project is subject to a range of policies, legal and regulatory requirements and other applicable
standards and technical requirements of relevance to this CESMP. Where two or more of the identified
standards are inconsistent or contradictory, unless otherwise justified, the Project will adopt the more
stringent.
3.2 Company Policies
Transgaz’s Health Safety and Environment policy (as outlined in the Integrated Management Manual
Quality-Environment-Occupational Health and Safety, code MSMI-CMSSO Ed. 03/Rev.) and Corporate
Social Responsibility policy apply to all activities carried out by, or on behalf of, the Company as part of
this Project. Details of these policies are provided in Section 7.3 of the F-CESMP.
3.3 National Legislation and Permits
All contractors are also required to comply with all relevant national regulatory requirements. Whilst
contractors are required to verify the latest regulatory requirements themselves an indicative list of
MOSHI national legislation is provided in Appendix 3.
Contactors must also ensure that relevant requirements of the various construction-related permits for
the Project issued by national (and local) regulators are addressed. Any requirements arising from the
revision/amendment of those permits will also be applied. Key permits are summarized in Section 3.2 of
the F-CESMP.
3.4 International Standards and Commitments
A range of international standards and commitments are applicable to this CESMP as described in
Section 3.3 of the F-CESMP Document. These include the European Bank of Reconstruction and
Development (EBRD) Environmental and Social Performance Requirements (PRs), with PR3 and PR6
especially relevant to this document. All contractors are required to comply with all such requirements as
they apply to their activities. The following European Union Directives are relevant to this CESMP and
have been taken into account:
• Directive 2000/60/EC Water Framework Directive;
• Directive 2008/105/EC on environmental quality standards in the field of water policy,
amending and subsequently repealing Council Directives 82/176/EEC, 83/513/EEC,
84/156/EEC, 84/491/EEC, 86/280/EEC and amending Directive 2000/60/EC of the European
Parliament and of the Council.

5 Key Roles and Responsibilities
5.1 Overview
An integrated approach to water management involves a range of stakeholders, including the Company,
the Contractors (and subcontractors), local authorities, regulatory agencies and the general public.
Effective water management therefore requires robust processes regarding information dissemination,
training, and designation of responsibility, management actions, monitoring, control, and remedial
actions.
Roles and responsibilities for the Company and Contractors are detailed below. Further information on
specific responsibilities for CESMP actions outlined in Appendix 1 and Appendix 2.
5.2 Company Roles & Responsibilities
Transgaz HSE management roles and responsibilities during the Project construction phase are
detailed in the BRUA PMU “Control system, safety and environmental protection Guidelines”. Further
information is also provided in other documents listed in the F-CESMP document.
With regards to this CESMP, Transgaz S.A. is responsible for key management activities including:
• Development of bidding conditions regarding water management;
• Professional training of a Transgaz water management representative on site;
• Monitoring contractor performance, supervision and control of contractors;
• Management cooperation in case of an ecologic accident2 (including registration and
communication of events); and
• Management of Transgaz’s own impacts upon the water environment.

Specific roles and responsibilities within the Company the following roles and responsibilities will apply
presented in Table 5.2 will apply.

6 Management, Mitigation, Monitoring and Verification
6.1 Management Actions
A range of management actions (and other mitigation measures) are required to be implemented in
respect of water management. The specific management actions and mitigation measures required of
Transgaz staff and its Contractors (and sub-contractors) are described in Appendix 1 to this CESMP.
These should incorporate Good Industry Practice (GIP3) in relation to the discharge of water from
excavations, prevention of silt pollution and reduction of pollution risk, including the following measures:
• Preventing water from entering excavations, by using cut-off ditches;
• Using pump sumps in excavations;
• Minimising the disturbance of standing water;
• Minimising the amount of time stripped ground and soil stockpiles are exposed;
• Only removing vegetation from the area that needs to be exposed in the near future;
• Managing stockpiles to avoid sediment run-off;
• Using geotextile silt fencing at the toe of the slope, to reduce the movement of silt;
• Collecting run-off in soakaways (referred to as polders in the translation of the Regulatory EIA) and
allow suspended solids to settle before disposal;
• Diverting clean water away from the area of construction work in order to minimise the volume of
contaminated water;
• Equipment and vehicle wheel washing to be carried out in a designated area of hard standing
locacted away from any watercourse or surface water drain;
• Discharge of treated water to the environment with formal approval from the relevant regulator;
• Contaminated water tankered off site for authorised disposal.
6.2 General Monitoring Activities
Monitoring provisions for this Water Management CESMP have been developed through the process
outlined in Table 6.2:
Table 6.2 Approach to Monitoring

Objective Approach
1: Risk Based Monitoring programs to address material issues based on the use of the
‘source-pathway-receptor’ approach in the Environmental Impact Assessment.
These are commensurate with:
• the scale and nature of the activity,
• the assessed potential level of impact (and uncertainty thereof), and
• the sensitivity of the local environment within the activity area of influence
2: Compliance Additional monitoring programs to meet specific regulatory needs.
Based

Following this approach the proposed monitoring plans should meet both Transgaz’ requirement to
understand and manage the Project’s potential impacts for each construction activity/ location and any
specific requirements of the MOSHI authorities. The specific monitoring requirements for this Water
CESMP are presented in Appendix 2.

Tier 3: Contractor Contractor These audits are to be undertaken by contractors to
self-audits. confirm compliance by themselves and their sub-
contractors with the CESMPs and their own HSE
management systems. The managing contractors shall
ensure that audit reports are provided to Transgaz
In addition to the above, there are also expected to be regulatory audits and lender compliance
monitoring visits. The nature and structure of these will be confirmed with regulators and lenders.
6.4 Key Performance Indicators
Both the General Monitoring and the Management System Verification Processes require robust Key
Performance Indicators (KPI) to be developed. These are quantitative or qualitative measurements
used to gauge performance over time and can be used to assess the effectiveness of control
measures. The KPIs considered relevant to this Water CESMP are shown in Table 6.4 below.
