The project will be implemented in a single phase. Upon the completion of the construction activities, the
road will be owned and managed by TANROADS. As such, the implementation of this C-ESMP will
solely be a responsibility of the contractor during construction phase.

1.2. Project Objectives

The main objective for implementing this project in the selected area is to connect the regions of mwanza
and Arusha with bitumen road standard in order to ensure orderly flow of traffic connecting these regions
and the other regions nearby hence the growing speed of economic development of these regions will be
increasing accordingly as the project is completed.

3
This Environmental and Social Management Plan (ESMP) is an implementation guiding tool for the
environmental and social impacts management. It will guide the implementation of the proposed

1.3 Project Location and accessibility


Implementation of the project is along the Nyamuswa-Bulamba road section where by this section has
started to be upgraded from the existing earth/gravel to bitumen standard. Nyamuswa and Bulamba are
found 24Km and 31km respectively from Bunda town.

Figure 1: Map showing Nyamuswa-Bulamba road section; (Source: QGIS 3.18.3, street map).

4
1.4 Physical and biological Environment
1.4.1 Topography and land forms
The whole road section to be upgraded to bitumen standard is at low land with no hills. There are
permanent rivers that across the area of the road project, and these rivers are like Msiriganyi River found
at the coordinate of (34.01320,-1.91410)
It is recommended that the contractor has to ensure that their activities will not cause any pollution to the
flowing water. All the wastes as well as construction materials shall be stored 60m away from the water
sources (NEMC, 2004). Mitigation measures to be taken are shown in chapter 4 in table 9.

1.4.2 Climate Condition


Physiographical and topographically, the project area falls in the northern eastern part of Tanzania in
Bunda district found in Mara region located at an elevation of 1,225 meters above sea level. Its
coordinates are 2°0'0" S and 33°49'60" E in Degrees Minutes Seconds, Bunda district has complex
climate with wide variations across the district, characterized by seasonality. The annual average
temperature ranges from 21˚C to 30˚C. There are two rainy seasons, February –May and August to
December with an annual average rainfall of 1100 mm. The highest monthly average rainfall, observed in
April, is 110 mm.

1.4.3 Soil and Geological formation


The area of the road project mostly consists of sand clay loam soil from the depth of 0m-2.5m and from
2.5m-5.5m is the Rudaceous sand while some of the project areas consist of Basalt type of Igneous rocks
and metamorphosed basalt, hence some of the project site will be difficult to excavate but on the other
hand it is an advantage to the contractor as the main source of aggregates which will be used in road
construction due to this contactor has installed the crusher plant at Chainage of km 19+500 LHS in
Nyambitirwa village.

1.4.4 Flora and Fauna


Bunda district council where the project is located is not potentially forested; it is dominated by
vegetation ranging from savannah woodlands, grasslands, scattered trees, shrubs and herbs. Sound
forestry base can be found in villages bordering protected areas of Serengeti National Park and Grummet
Game Reserve, The flora along the project road is characterized by varied mosaics of shade trees, and
street strip trees in settlements areas, grassland, and acacia woodland and scrublands in the outskirt of
villages. Street strip trees consist of exotic trees, mainly Azadirachta indica (Neem Tree) [Mwarobaini],
5
Grevillea robusta (silk oak) [mgrivelia] Azadirachta indica cassia or yellow cassia) [mjohoro], and Fruit
trees mainly Mangifera indica (mango) (miembe], Psidium guajava (Guava tropical tree), Carica papaya
(Pawpaw tree).

Figure 2: Trees found along the project site


1.4.5 Fauna.
The main fauna of the area for which the project road passes consist of domestic animals such as livestock,
dogs, chicken, different bird species and other aquatic creatures include toads, and monitor lizards which are
found in some rivers across the project site.

1.4.6 Road Side Air Quality


The typical air pollutants from road transportation sources are Carbon Monoxide (CO), Nitrogen Dioxide
(NO2), Sulphur Dioxide (SO2) volatile compounds and main source is particulate matters (dust), Despite
the fact data on pollutant concentration along the roads was not available due to small number of cars and
vehicles passing in the project site and fact that settlement areas are open which facilitates dilution and
dispersion of pollutant to the atmosphere hence ambient air quality has been projected to be unaffected by
vehicular emissions. Hence the air in the project area is considered to be very clear with low levels of
pollutants. This observation is based on low record of pollution related infections in the medical centers

6
as no detailed measurements were undertaken. The main source of pollution is generally dust generated
by traffics.
1.4.7 Noise and Vibration.
Despite the fact that data on noise pollution of the project area were not available during the time of
conducting the survey, The average noise levels for daily people’s day to day activities along the road as
well as cars and trucks crossing the road/ Project sites always range from 49 dBA to 80 dBA which are
below the TBS and ILO acceptable noise levels of 85dBA for the duration exposure of 8:00hours, Noise
and vibrations levels are rated to be insignificant. Although monitoring of this noise level should be done
in all construction sites since it can be temporarily exceeded due to noise generated as a result of
increased traffic movement across the project area which is likely to cause considerable noise and
vibrations which vary in nature and intensity.

1.4.8 Sources for Construction Materials


1.4.9.1 Gravel material

The materials investigation done by project consultant and proven that, the natural gravel material
available in the project vicinity is potential for G3 to G60 classes of gravel. The quality of local rock
sources, sand sources and water sources are also compliant with the requirements for concrete and road
7
works as specified in the MOW Standard Specification for Road Works 2000, Contractor will assure that
human settlement allocated within 500metre in the Borrow pit site will be reallocated with compensation
and received grievances will be solved immediately in order to maintain good relation with the local
people. Offsite facilities (e.g. quarry, borrow pit and sand) are determined in the table 1 below

1.4.9.2 Hard Stones
Hard stone materials are required for production of aggregates for concrete works and bituminous
surfacing. There was no existing quarry site at the vicinity of the project area so thorough investigations
done by consultant and contractor to obtain the qualified and reliable source of aggregates, Rocks
investigated for their strength characteristics, densities and water absorption so as to ascertain their use in
construction. Quarry site at km 19+500 LHS in Nyambitirwa village was identified, acquired and
approved by consultant as potential source of aggregates because of its cost effective and it meet the
requirements for Environmental Code of Practice for Road Works, 2009 and the MOW Standard
Specification for Road Works 2000, Contractor will assure that human settlement allocated within
500metre in the quarry site will be reallocated with compensation and received grievances will be solved
immediately in order to maintain good relation with the local people and Quarry/Crusher management
plan is implemented accordingly.

1.4.9 .4 Water Sources


Potential water sources investigated by contractor for construction along the project area are from Sarawe
Dam, Suguti Reservoir and Msufini- Lake Victoria and have tested for quality to be used for construction
purpose, and in case of water scarcity , the contractor has drilled its own source of water in Ligamba main
camp after being given permission from Lake Victoria Basin Commission and water tests have conducted
to determine its suitability before being used for domestic or construction purposes see appendix I, All

3
water sources will be tested for quality to be used for construction. The contractor will apply for water
permits to Lake Victoria Basin Commission before starting using the identified and approved source,
downstream water users should be considered especially human use since Water Resources Management
Act of 2009, sets first priority to human use and other uses comes second, Contractor has to make sure
that all sources of water are protected from any kind of pollutions resulted from road construction
activities, e.g. parking and washing of vehicles and equipments in the vicinity of watercourses.

1.5 Socio Economic Environment


1.5.1 Economic Profile
Agriculture

4
Food crops cultivated in the project area are Maize, Finger millet, Cassava, Beans, Simsim and Millet
while cash crops produced are Cotton, paddy, tomatoes, ground nuts, Irish potatoes, Sweet potatoes, and
sunflower. The agricultural system is rain fed it is luck to Bunda district because of two rainy seasons,
February –May and August to December with an annual average rainfall of 1100 mm. The highest
monthly average rainfall mostly observed in April which is 110 mm, the weather has a significant impact
on the productivity of crops. On average, one farmer can produce 1 to 2 hectares and one acre can
produce between 15- 20 bags (100kg) of maize. There is no formal market System in the area where
farmers can sell their cash crops rather each household sell crops to meet his/her family needs. Farmers
use hand hoe and there is low application of farming inputs such as fertilizers and pesticides. Upgrading
of the road will serve to improve the economic potential of agriculture for the communities providing
access to better markets of the agricultural produce, livestock and livestock products by providing reliable
and cost-effective means of transport.

Livestock keeping
Livestock keeping like Cattle, Goats, Sheep, Donkeys, Chicken, Dogs and Pigs is another important
economic activity where by majority of people along the project area engaged, Communities generate
income through sales of livestock and livestock products as a source of income for households and the
Districts. Cattle disease contributes to a poor quality of livestock. Diseases in the area include: tick borne
disease, east coast fever, anaplasmoses, babesiosis and new cattle disease. The implementation of the
project may open up opportunities to livestock keepers near the project site to sell the livestock products
like meat and milk to project workers and eventually improvement to life standard of the livestock
keepers.

Figure 6: Livestock keeping along the project site. Site visit, 04th September, 2021

1.5.2 Fishing
The project area of influence does not have significant fishing activities. Fishing is done outside the
project area especially in areas such as Lake Victoria which is near the project site, The RISE project will
positively affect the supply of fish from far away and hence contribute to a boost of fish business in the
locality and also uplift the nutritional value for the locals.
1.5.3 Mining
Some of the villages along the project site are endowed with mineral deposits and type of mining which is
mostly done is small scale mining and mineral extraction through oxidation plants, Those villages along
the project site with mineral deposits area Bulamba village where limestone and Gold are mined,
1.5.3 Land use
There are five main types of land use along the project area. The larger part of the area is used for
Farming activities, followed by grazing (cattle, sheep and goats), commercial, institutional and
residential. The land use along the proposed Nyamuswa-Bulamba Road is as described in Table below
1.5.4 Graves

In the project area, there are notably two graves that have relocated already, the one was in (Chainage
15+000) in Mcharo village and the other was in quarry site at km 19+500 LHS in Nyambitirwa village,
The other two graves which are within the road reserve to be reallocated are at Chainage (km 14+700)
also at Kisangwa Village.

Figure 7 : Existing graves at Mcharo village, Site visit, 04th September, 2021

1.5.5 Access to Clean and Safe Water
Water for domestic and livestock consumption is particularly scarce in the project area. About 40.2 % of
the households in Bunda district have access to safe water for domestic use. Most of the households use
shallow wells which drying up during the dry season and as a result resident have to walk less than 1km
to fetch water in dip wells with hand pump, dams, Gravity schemes and Spring box found in
neighboring villages. Communities experience increased competition of water Sources during project
implementation. Furthermore, the existing water sources water sources proximate to project site can be
potentially contaminated / polluted by road construction activities as they are unprotected. Contractor has
obtained relevant permit for water use from Lake Victoria basin commission, it is the Contractor’s
responsibilities to make sure that identified water sources for road construction mentioned in Table 5 do
not cause water shortages to the neighboring communities and the water sources to the communities are
not compromised during road construction.
1.5 Social – Economic Profile.
Commercial Facilities/ Services Offered along the Road

Some of the areas along the project site there are commercial facilities like shops, commercial kiosks and
other commercial facilities for petty business in both sides of the project. During site visit it has noted that
most of the commercial facilities along the project site will not be demolished since are not within the
project site. Except commercial facilities at Kiroleli village are required to be demolished after the issues
of compensation has done since are within the road reserve, also commercial vendors whom are
temporary selling, displaying and other provides services within the road reserve negotiation will be made
with them to leave the area for construction activities.

CHAPTER THREE
IMPLEMENTATION OF C-ESMP

3.1. IMPACT ASSESSMENT


3.1.1. Introduction
Impact assessment is necessary prior to planning and management of impact to minimize the adverse
impacts which may arise during the project implementation. Impact factors are involved at early stage of
the project from designing and planning stages to completion of project.

Impact is involved in every aspect, and the construction of road projects are no exception. Impact is
defined as the possibility of loss, injury, disadvantage or destruction also as a combination of the
probability of frequency of occurrence of a defined hazard and the magnitude of the consequences of the
occurrence. Impact assessment is a step wise procedure consisting of risk identification, Impact
classification and Impact analysis or evaluation. Impact assessment is the determination of quantitative
or qualitative estimate of Impact. This project may consist of many risks and this is due to involvement
of many contracting parties including designers, contractors, sub-contractor and suppliers

3.1.2. METHODOLOGY OF IMPACT ASSESSMENT


The various risks were identified and classified based on the questionnaire prepared during general site
survey, review of various project documents as well as review of the other related projects. Then the
Impact was categorized from very low impact to very high impact respectively. The analyzed risks
were ranked according to their importance related to their adverse impacts associated to the project
implementation.

23
3.1.3. IDENTIFICATION AND CLASSIFICATION OF IMPACT.
3.1.3.1 Construction Impact
Most Impacts associated with the construction are more likely to root in contractors and sub-
contractor’s activities. To keep the construction work on track, experienced Contractor and sub-
Contractor need to be involved during early stages of the to make sound preparations for developing
valid construction programs.

3.1.3.2. Utilities Impact


Utilities include: electricity, water, fuel, waste water management facilities, etc. which play a greater
role in construction projects completion; Shortage or improper handling of these utilities would create
problems on site.

3.1.3.3. Accidental Impact


Unanticipated damage during construction is an accidental impact. Any type of accidents on
construction sites like machineries accidents, overexertion, accidental falls etc. can be disastrous to the
project.

3.1.3.4. Organizational Impact


Lack of skilled labour, lack in knowledge level of lead group, etc. are the example of organizational
impacts. Lack of skilled labour can lead to project delays, poor workmanship, safety and liability
issues.

3.1.3.5. Frequency of Impact assessment study


The impact assessment study is a long term process which has to be conducted in each stages of the
project to identify the impact which may arise in a specific time in and point of the road under
upgrading. At the initial stage of the project the expert conducted impact assessment which identified a
number of impacts which may arise during project implementation and prepared mitigation measures
as stipulated in this report.

3.2. EXPECTED PROJECT IMPACTS (Short term Impacts and long term impacts)
3.2.1. Noise and vibration
Increased traffic movement across the project area is likely to cause considerable noise and vibrations.
The noise and vibrations will be produced by construction equipment and trucks during transport, and
delivery of construction materials to the project site. Noise and vibrations will also originate from the
blasting of rocks in Quarry site. This is short term and direct impact

24
3.2.2 Air pollution
Dust generated from land clearing, extraction, transportation, offloading, stockpiling and spreading of
sand and gravel will have negative impact to the air quality. Another source of air pollution will be due
to exhaust fumes from operating construction machinery, equipment and vehicles. In addition, there will
be clouds of dusts due to movements of vehicles and construction machinery. This impact considered as
direct short term.
3.2.3 Surface Water and Soil Pollution

Pollution of ground water and soil may occur due to accidental spillage of fuel, motor oils, and
chemicals like paints. Deposition of concrete and fine sediments during construction may cause effects
to the natural streams near the intersection. This is short term and direct impact

3.2.4 Health and safety risks to workers and the public


3.2.4.1 Public health
Construction activities will expose the public to air emissions (dust and exhaust gases) which could
lead to bronchial and other respiratory tract diseases. Further, lack of proper waste management, lack
of safe and clean water and poor sanitation conditions at camping sites and working areas may cause
eruption of water borne diseases such as cholera and diarrhea.
This Impact will be short term, local and reversible.
3.2.4.2. Occupational health and safety
The road construction activities will be associated with high generation of dust which exposes the
laborers and the general public to bronchial and other respiratory track diseases.
Health Risks
Health risks may be caused by exposure to hazards through ingestion, inhalation and dermal. These
hazards are categorized as follows:
PHYSICAL HAZARDS: Are factors within the environment that can harm the body without
necessarily touching it, Physical Hazards including, Radiation: including ionizing, non-ionizing (EMF’s,
microwaves, radio waves, etc.), High exposure to sunlight/ultraviolet rays, Temperature extremes – hot
and cold and Constant loud noise Physical hazards may lead to loss of hearing, loss of sight, injuries,
handicap and even deaths.

ERGONOMIC HAZARDS occur when the type of work, body positions and working conditions put
strain on your body. They are the hardest to spot since you don’t always immediately notice the strain

25
on your body or the harm that these hazards pose. Short-term exposure may result in ―sore muscles‖ the
next day or in the days following exposure, but long-term exposure can result in serious long-term
illnesses for example Improperly adjusted workstations and chairs, Frequent lifting, vibrations, Poor
posture, Awkward movements especially if they are repetitive, Repeating the same movements over and
over Having to use too much force especially if you have to do it frequently, Workers especially in
culvert construction are at high risk so contractor will have to conduct TBT frequently to remind the
workers on these hazards.

CHEMICAL HAZARDS which are present when workers are exposed to any chemical preparation in
the workplaces in any form (solid, liquid or gas). Some are safer than others, but to some workers who
are more sensitive to chemicals, even common solutions can cause illness, skin irritation, or breathing
problems and acute to chronic bronchial and respiratory tract diseases but all of this depend on the
frequency of exposure So workers are required to be aware of Liquids like cleaning products, paints,
acids, Pesticides solvents – ESPECIALLY if chemicals are in an unlabeled container! Vapors and
fumes that come from welding or exposure to solvents Gases like VOCs, SO2, acetylene, propane,
carbon monoxide, Pesticides and helium Flammable materials like gasoline, solvents, and explosive
chemicals.
BIOLOGICAL HAZARDS e.g. Blood and other body fluids which may lead to the cause of
Fungi/mold, Bacteria and viruses, Plants, Insect bites, Animal and bird droppings, also lack of proper
sanitation facilities at the construction sites and campsites may cause contamination of soil and water
bodies. Environmental contamination by biological hazards may lead to eruption of water borne diseases
such as cholera and diarrhea.

SAFETY HAZARDS: These are the most common and will be present in most workplaces (garages,
construction sites, Campsites), They include unsafe conditions that can cause injury, illness and death,
Safety Hazards include Spills on floors or tripping hazards, such as blocked walkways or cords running
across the floor, working from heights, including ladders, scaffolds, roofs, or any raised work area
Unguarded machinery and moving machinery parts; guards removed or moving parts that a worker can
accidentally touch, Electrical hazards like frayed cords, missing ground pins, improper wiring Confined
spaces, Machinery-related hazards (lockout/tagout, boiler safety, forklifts.

26
WORK ORGANIZATION HAZARDS these are Hazards or stressors that cause stress (short-term
effects) and strain (long-term effects) and do normal associated with workplace issues such as workload,
lack of control and/or respect, etc. Examples of work organization hazards include: Workload demands,
Workplace violence, Intensity and/or pace, Respect (or lack of), Flexibility, Control or say about things,
Social support/relations and Sexual harassment

3.2.5 Interruption or lack of utility services due to damage/reallocation of existing utility


infrastructure
In two sites (Ligamba and Ligamba) there are public utilities services such as power line, underground
communication cable, water pipes. These utility infrastructures are constructed within the site therefore
need to be relocated to give space for the new development. During this period, the community might
lack access to these utilities.
Other impacts are related to cost implications for the utility relocation activities.

3.2.6. Traffic flow disruption and congestion


Diversions will be created with installed signs where construction activities is going on and this may
cause traffic disturbance, traffic disturbance may cause delay in transportation due to traffic congestion
and if not properly managed may cause accidents.
This impact is short term, local and reversible.

3.2.7. Impacts due to operation of the asphalt plant/crushing plant and campsite
Material handling at the asphalt plant/ crushing plant will emit dust such as particulates and exhaust
gases that have effects on the general air quality. Further, littering due to poor housekeeping at the
asphalt plant/Crushing plant or improper disposal of unused bitumen and aggregates or bitumen spills
would have the localized degradation of land and other environmental resource (soil and water). Poor
housekeeping (poor disposal of domestic waste) at the campsites can also potentially contaminate the
environment. Also the operation of asphalt plant may produces fumes, dust and noise which may lead
to negative significant to the environment and general public.

3.2.8. Loss of property


Commercial structures or points will be affected by the project, whereby part or all of the structures
will be demolished to obtain the required road alignment.

27
3.2.9. Loss of definite materials and land degradation
Quarries and Borrow Areas: The excavation of quarries and borrow pits used for obtaining soil and
aggregate materials for road construction can cause direct, and indirect long-term adverse impacts on
land. One of the long-term residual adverse impacts of non-reclaimed borrow pits is the creation of
conducive environment for insects breeding sites that may cause spread of malaria. Ponded water in
borrow pit may become breeding sites for mosquitos, which may lead to eruption of diseases such as
malaria.

3.2.10. Deterioration of Scenic and Visual Aesthetics


Dust produced by construction equipment, machinery, and vehicles will impair visibility making the
construction site prone to traffic accidents. The dust will also cause discoloration of buildings and
vegetation along the construction site. In addition, stockpiles of construction materials will impair scenic
and visual quality. Wastes from site office, mechanical workshop, pre-cast yard, and stores at the end of
the construction phase are likely to cause scenic degradation and pollution and become an eye sore. The
wastes likely be generated will include printer toner and cartridges, used lubricants (oil and grease),
used batteries, storage facilities (pallets), packing (plastic bags, paper and timber boxes), wastes from
pre-cast yard (concrete wastes, metal reinforcements. Improper disposal of the wastes will deteriorate
aesthetic and visual quality of the campsite surroundings. The negative impact will be direct, reversible,
moderate, and short term.
3.2.11. Increase of Wastes Generation
Construction activities will associate with production of wastes, resulting from human and machines
activities at the construction sites and at the campsites. These wastes include solid waste and liquid
waste. Solid wastes will include: spoil, rubbles, tree logs, metals, glasses, papers etc. while the liquid
waste include sewage, waste oils etc. These wastes if not well handled can change the aesthetic nature
of the project area and can even lead to soil and water pollution in case of improper disposal. The
quantities wastes that will be produced will be documented in each month. Pollution of land from
inadequate waste management is considered to be local and short term because of their small quantity
and nature.

28
3.2.12. Increased rate of sexual transmitted diseases.
The major health risks include the possibility of acceleration of spread of communicable diseases,
including HIV/AIDS. This kind of risk is always there when there is influx and or intermixing of people
from different localities since this project will cause to the increase of immigrants and higher earnings
of the construction workers which attract women in sexual relations so Unhealthy social interaction
might result in an increase in the incidence of diseases including STI, and HIV/AIDS if efforts to
address the issue are not put in place at various levels of decision-making especially at household and
community levels. The impact is considered to be indirect and long term.

3.2.13. Water Borne Diseases


The extraction of construction materials will create pits which provide good environments for vectors
and thus posing serious water borne diseases. Abandoned pits filled with water harbor disease vectors
responsible for transmission of malaria and schistosomiasis. The impact is considered to be indirect and
long term.
3.2.14. Land Degradation and Landscape Modification
Roads construction will be associated with land cuttings, filling and land clearance lead to landscape
modification and land degradation so contractor has to make sure that any cleared topsoil shall be
stockpiled to be used in re-vegetation scheme, wherever possible mature trees shall be retained.

3.2.15. Soil and Water Pollution.


The project implementation may lead to soil contamination if proper measures are not adhered. The
major cause of soil contamination may be due to oil spillage together with the un- proper management
of non-decomposed wastes to the open environment. Also during water obstruction from different
sources including from the river, pollution may occur if proper measures are not put in consideration,
for example the oil spillage from water pump, from the water bowser, etc.
3.2.16. Reduce Water Quality due to runoff
In the operation phase, the motor vehicle emissions and contaminants carried by the tires may
participate and stay on the roads. Surface run-off formed during rain will carry the contaminants to the
water sources. The impact is considered direct and long term

29
3.2.17. Surface Water Flow Modification
Construction of approach road embankments is likely to interfere with natural surface flow patterns,
where by concentrating flow in one direction, resulting into channel modification.
.
3.2.18. Safety Impact
The traffic, the construction equipment and the condition of the construction sites may cause safety risks.
Traffic poses a danger to road workers because other side of the road will be on use while construction
activities are on progress in both sides. This risk can be substantially reduced by means of correct and
proper warnings and protection of the roadwork and traffic management roadwork can pose danger to
road users because the situation deviates from what is normal. The work may entail unforeseen obstacles
in the carriageway, re-routing of roads or lanes and other disruptions. The disruptions may vary from
minimal, in the case of works outside the trafficked area, to the road user having to make detours because
the road is diverted. Lack of space adjacent the road reduces chances for creation of detours or even
pedestrian pathways during construction. Other risks may be caused by improper placement of
construction materials in the construction sites, lack of signage and traffic management programs on site.

3.4. ENVIRONMENTAL, HEALTH AND SAFETY TRAINING
Each part (Contractor, Project Consultant, Client and Service Providers) will be responsible for
training the project stakeholders in accordance to the specified location. As the project to involve
different stakeholders the contractor’s environmental, Health and safety and social experts are
responsible for conducting required training to the workers on all issues related to health, safety,
environment and social. The experts in this discipline will ensure all workers are aware on this
C-ESMP and its requirement and adhere with it accordingly. Further Contractor for this project
will employ organizations registered to conduct some other training/ awareness including HIV /
AID and the road safety awareness training as well as to prepare Traffic Management Plans
based on the Environmental Monitoring Plan (EMP). The reports will be attached in monthly
compliance report.
3.5. EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS AND RESPONSE
To have a smooth project implementation, the project manager is overall in charge to lead
responsible personnel for emergencies which may occur during construction. The site Foreman
will report to the site engineer/Manager who has a mandate to stop or direct works.

The contractor will be prepare all the documents with procedures to follow in case of any
emergency which include the name, telephone number of people who is responsible for any
emergency. This will also include the responsibility of the emergency response personnel and
contact numbers of emergency services providers like ambulance service numbers, fire brigade,
spills clean up services, police number, etc. will be displayed on board for workers.

Moreover the camping site the Contractor under supervision of Environmental, Health and
safety experts will locate the point to store all hazardous materials and to keep the Material
Safety data sheets for workers. EHS expert will be responsible to ensuring implementation of all
proposed mitigation measures for minimize and control the environmental impacts associated
with the project works. (Social expert will be responsible for notifying any issues of negative or
positive significance to the government agencies, local council / leaders and nearby
communities).
Control of environmental emergency
The best way to deal with environmental pollution and emergency is to follow proper
procedures in order avoid the impacts which may arise and ensuring that all workers on the job
site are trained to recognize the hazards and proper procedures to control of the environmental
and emergency which may arise.

Steps to follows:

1. Communicate the hazard

Immediately notify others working in the area and their supervisor of the hazard, and if the
situation warrants it, evacuate the area. If needed, call the responsible authority for help by
using the emergence number provided. It’s an excellent idea to have someone who is familiar
with the incident as it’s required. Also make sure that anyone who is injured or anything has
been contaminated is removed from the area immediate and taken to a safe place or for future
restoration.

2. Preparation Measures to avoid reoccurrence

This step focuses on ensuring that the damage and any other environmental emergency does not
become any worse. If there is a way to stop or minimize the chances of it becoming worse, take
those actions. Workers should immediately do appropriate measures to overcome the situation.

3. Contain the Damage, Control and Environmental and Emergence.


Once the immediate situation has been controlled, take steps start mitigating the
implication which resulted from the damage. Also ensure that all the effects are well
addressed and contained and if the damage is large inform the responsible authorities.
4. Prepare the report with recommendation

The experience noted in the specific emergence may be used to prepare the action plan to avoid
the re-occurrence of the same damage or environmental emergency and its related matter.

3.6. ESHS REPORTING

3.6.1. Environmental, Social, Health and Safety Reporting


The Environmental, Social and Health and Safety experts are responsible to prepare the monthly
(monthly compliance on implementation of ESMP) to be submitted to the project Consultant at
the end of each month for review and action. The report will cover all issues related to
environmental, social, health and safety issues. The report basically elaborates how the project
are being implemented while put due consideration the safeguard as stipulated in the approved

Monitoring is one of the important elements of an Environmental and Social Management Plan
(ESMP) and serves a number of functions. It is the instrument whereby it is determined whether
the environmental mitigation measures are fulfilling their intended purpose. This is critical in:
 Providing a check on the implementation of proposed mitigation measures and ESMP
recommendations; and
 Identifying corrective measures or the redesign of mitigation measures, if the originally
planned mitigation measures are not sufficiently effective.
Because monitoring is essential to identify undesirable trends, high quality and, if possible,
quantified baseline information is needed. Only when the base situation is established can
changes be identified through monitoring. The monitoring measures that are particularly
important for environmental protection are:
 Baseline monitoring is to commence before construction activities. Further surveys will be
carried out if instructed by the Engineer.
 The results of the monitoring program will be used to measure the effectiveness of
measures against the target.
 The Contractor and Sub Contractor will follow the approved ESMP

4.2. ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING OBJECTIVES


The standard environmental monitoring objectives for the project are to:
 Monitor the effectiveness of the ESMP and other mitigation measures.
 Assess the performance of environmental controls and proposed mitigation measures
 Ensure that the Contractor corrects any mitigation measure that are not functioning
acceptably
 To provide regular reports on monthly basis on the status of compliance with the ESMP to
the project consultant, TANROADS and NEMC (if needed).

4.3 MONITORING PROCEDURE


4.3.1 Dust emissions
The monitoring will consist of making field measurements of suspended solids in air. The air
quality monitoring will involve determination of ambient levels of prescribe particulates, PM 2.5
(<10μm). Particulates will be measured using Micro Dust Pro Dust Meter. Ambient background
measurements will be established at the construction sites, at the quarries, at the asphalt mixing
plant and at the camping site. The dust level meter gives instant dust reading levels. In the event
that public complaints arise concerning the dust increases, steps shall be taken to investigate the
root cause without delay and remedial action shall be taken to correct the deficiency. Actions shall
ensure that similar incidents do not occur and shall be reported to the Environment Consultant as
part of the performance reporting process
4.3.2 Noise emissions
The monitoring will consist of making field measurements of changes in noise levels. Sampling
Points will be established along the construction sites, at the camp, at the barrow pit and at the
asphalt mixing plant. Measurement of noise level will be taken at the closest to the operating
plant/machine. Measurements will be taken using noise/sound level meters. This will be done to
ensure that noise levels do not increase significantly during construction and do not breach noise
thresholds for ambient and worker noise. The meter will be calibrated before and after each set
of reading.

4.3.3 Water pollution

The monitoring will consist of making field measurements of parameters as stated in attached
Appendixes section (the water quality baseline result). The procedure for routine monitoring will
be as follows: One sample will be collected from each river for laboratory analysis. Water
Quality analysis will be conducted in every three monthly

4.4 AUDITING AND CONTINUAL IMPROVEMENT
Despite careful planning, it is highly probable that certain components of the monitoring plan
will need to be modified. Therefore, it will be necessary to audit or review the monitoring plan to
pinpoint those areas needing correction, adjustment, or upgrading. Operational aspects of the
plan, as well as any paperwork that deals with the plan, will be reviewed. A goal will be to
continuously audit all aspects of the monitoring plan for effectiveness.

An audit of the monitoring plan and procedures will be conducted by the Contractor
Environmental Consultant at least every 3 months. Additional audits shall be carried out by the
Project’s Environmentalist at least bi-monthly. Formal evaluations of the monitoring plan will be
documented, deficiencies noted in the report, and progress in addressing deficiencies tracked in
writing. The results of the audit shall be given to the Contractor Site Engineer, who will
supervise update of the ESMP and other associated documents. Non-conformances shall be
actioner and rectified by the Contractors in consultation with the General Foreman, with advice
from the, Health & Safety Officer and Environmentalist as required. Responsibilities to address
deficiencies and accountabilities will be assigned and deadlines for addressing required changes
will be set.
