IX. ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN

9.1 Implementation Arrangements

158. Urban Development and Housing Department (UDHD) of Government of Madhya Pradesh will be the Executing Agency for the Program, responsible for management, coordination and execution of all activities funded under the loan. Implementing Agency will be the recently established Madhya Pradesh Urban Development Company (MPUDC), a wholly owned subsidiary of GOMP. A central Project Management Unit (PMU) attached to MPUDC will be responsible for implementing the MPUSIP. The PMU will be supported by Program Implementation Units (PIUs) with flexibility to redeployment depending upon the implementation requirements.

159. The PMU and PIUs will be supported by several teams of Design Consultants in preparation of preliminary engineering designs.

160. Water Resource Review Committee (WRRC) is constituted to undertake a thorough review of the source when recommended by the Design Consultant in regard to techno-economic feasibility and sustainability especially ensuring climate change resilience, and Technical Review Committee (TRC) to review and approve the preliminary designs developed by the Design Consultants.

161. Program Management Consultant (PMC) centrally located in PMU and with field teams located in PIUs shall be responsible for implementation of the Program. All infrastructure contracts will be procured through performance-based contracts (PBCs) and include build-operate (BO) framework. Based on the preliminary designs prepared by Design Consultants, the DBO (design-build-operate) Contractor will design, construct, commission and operate for 10 years, after which it will be transferred to the respective ULB.

162. Two Committees - an Empowered Committee cum Executive Committee and a Technical Clearance and Tender Committee have been constituted by the Government to be responsible for effective and timely implementation of the Program.

163. Safeguards. At PMU, there will be two safeguard specialists: (i) Project Officer (Environment) and (ii) Social & Gender Officer, who will responsible for compliance with the environmental and social safeguards in program implementation. PO (Environment) will have overall responsibility in implementation of the investment program as per the Environmental Assessment & Review Framework (EARF) agreed between ADB and the government. At individual subproject level, PO will ensure that environmental assessment is conducted, and a project-specific is prepared and implemented, and the compliance, and corrective actions, if any are reported as required.

9.2 Environmental Management Plan

164. An environmental management plan (EMP) has been developed to provide mitigation

measures to reduce all negative impacts to acceptable levels. 165. The EMP will guide the environmentally-sound construction of the subproject and

ensure efficient lines of communication between MPUDC, project management unit (PMU), project implementing unit (PIU), consultants and contractors. The EMP will (i) ensure that the activities are undertaken in a responsible non-detrimental manner; (i)

Page 6: 42486-018: Madhya Pradesh Urban Services Improvement

156

provide a pro-active, feasible and practical working tool to enable the measurement and monitoring of environmental performance on site; (ii) guide and control the implementation of findings and recommendations of the environmental assessment conducted for the subproject; (iii) detail specific actions deemed necessary to assist in mitigating the environmental impact of the subproject; and (iv) ensure that safety recommendations are complied with. The EMP includes a monitoring program to measure the environmental condition and effectiveness of implementation of the mitigation measures. It will include observations on- and off-site, document checks, and interviews with workers and beneficiaries.

166. The contractor will be required to submit to PIU, for review and approval, a site

environmental plan (SEP) including (i) proposed sites/locations for construction work camps, storage areas, hauling roads, lay down areas, disposal areas for solid and hazardous wastes; (ii) specific mitigation measures following the approved EMP; (iii) monitoring program as per SEP; and (iv) budget for SEP implementation. No works are allowed to commence prior to approval of SEP.

167. A copy of the EMP/approved SEP will be kept on site during the construction period

at all times. The EMP included in the bid and contract documents. Non-compliance with, or any deviation from, the conditions set out in this document constitutes a failure in compliance.

168. For civil works, the contractor will be required to (i) carry out all of the mitigation and

monitoring measures set forth in the approved SEP; and (ii) implement any corrective or preventative actions set out in safeguards monitoring reports that the employer will prepare from time to time to monitor implementation of this IEE and SEP. The contractor shall allocate budget for compliance with these SEP measures, requirements and actions.

169. The following tables show the potential environmental impacts, proposed mitigation

measures and responsible agencies for implementation and monitoring. .

Complex in Baihar town

construction activity at site

by School of Planning and Architecture (SPA), Bhopal has suggested general principles for the mitigation of impacts are as under:

• As the lateral distance of proposed laying of RWRM from the boundary of temple complex is around 41.5 mt. away, So the execution should only be conducted in the supervision of ASI officials.

• The proposed RWRM is suggested to be laid at least 300mm below the surface level at the shoulder side of the road, if the hard or soft rock surface will be found at the base, otherwise 800 mm depth should be adopted in trench excavation for laying purpose on normal soil bed, but primarily maintaining the designed slope of pipe alignment as per suggested in the approved DPR of Baihar WSS. Also it should be supported with a well-developed PCC base of at least 25 mm thicknesses.

• Consecutive pipe joints of RWRM are needed to be well coated and wrapped with insulation materials/tapes to protect any possible leakage due to water pressure inside the pipe.

• Manual digging of earth is suggested for excavation purposes to protect against any structural vibration to the heritage site for laying of the RWRM. Rock blasting is not advisable.

• Updated drawings should be available for reference at the site.

• Quality control measures should be maintained at all stages of the project.

• Increased public awareness and understanding of the heritage value of Baihar with DBO contractor and its working staff.

• Consecutive pipe joints of RWRM are needed to be well coated and wrapped with insulation materials/tapes to protect any possible leakage due to water pressure inside the pipe.

• Manual digging of earth is suggested for excavation purposes to protect against any structural vibration to the heritage site.

• Rock blasting is not advisable.

• Possibility of air

• Even though CWRM is not a part of proposed Baihar WSS, but the critical joints with multiple connections in the existing CWRM needed to be encased in an RCC chamber along with a pressure control valve wherever distribution connections are provided along the main approach road, as the existing CWRM is around 25 m away from boundary of the Joda-Pat Temple Complex and hence any failure of joints may create trouble for temple structure.

• Similarly distribution system is not a part of proposed scheme, but in case of multiple connections are provided for distribution purpose in the network within the protected area, which is hardly 2.5 to 6 mt away from the boundary of the temple complex then concerned joints are needed to be well coated and wrapped with insulation materials/ tapes to protect any possible leakage due to water pressure inside the pipe.

• As there is a possibility of air pollution due to the construction of the proposed WTP and associated sump, which is around 580 mt. far from the heritage site. Hence, it is suggested to take necessary precautions during the time of concrete casting by covering with temporary partition.

• In case of construction of sump,

pollution due to the construction of the proposed components, take necessary precautions during the time of concrete casting by covering with temporary partition.

X. CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS

179. The process described in this document has assessed the environmental impacts of all elements of the Baihar and Malanjkhand water supply improvement subproject. All potential impacts were identified in relation to pre-construction, construction, and operation phases. Planning principles and design considerations have been reviewed and incorporated into the site planning and design process wherever possible; thus, environmental impacts as being due to the project design or location were not significant.

180. There are two important location and design aspects in Baihar town. First, Baihar is having an Archaeological features .i.e. Joda Pat temple listed in the Archaeological Survey of India, heritage site within the municipal area where the project is being implemented; and second, design water supply with Tannor River as water source, which is flows along the boundary of Eco-sensitive zone of Kanha National Park (KNP)/ Kanha Tiger Reserve. . Baihar subproject town is located about 9-10 km from the Kanha National Park (KNP)/ Kanha Tiger reserve. Proposed weir and intake well are lies within the Eco-sensitive zone/ Buffer zone of Kanha National Park; and both the component is located 6 km away from the boundary of Kanha National Park (boundary of core zone). However, there will not be ecological loss during the construction work. Tannor River is under control of Water Resources Department, GoMP. Hence, permission of water abstraction has to be obtained from WRD. Subsequently, Permission has to be obtained from chief wildlife warden/ State Wildlife Board/ National Board of Wildlife for construction of weir, Intake well within the Buffer Zone of Kanha National Park/ Tiger Reserve. An application through the online system of MoEF&CC has to be submitted. Construction work can only be conducted with prior permission of concerned departments. Aquatic life in the river is limited to local specifies of fishes, and aquatic plants. There are no notable sensitive features. The local species was noticed viz. major carps, minor carps, Manjori, Padan and Rohuan etc. 181. Raw water pipeline of length 4774 will be laid underground from the proposed intake well to WTP site along an existing PMGSY road & PWD road. Some of the pipe length will be laid in Buffer zone of Kanha National Park, Adjacent forest area (outside the Buffer zone) and ASI jurisdiction. The pipes will not cross any private land throughout the alignment. In between Intake to WTP, RWRM of 184 m lies within Buffer zone, 1485 m will be passes through Jatta Reserved forest (Adjacent to the Buffer zone) and 593 m will be passes through ASI jurisdiction. As discussed weir and intake well located within the Buffer zone of KNP, about 184 m length of RWRM also lies within the Buffer zone. Hence, Permission has to be obtained from chief wildlife warden/ State Wildlife Board/ National Board of Wildlife for laying of RWRM along with permission for construction of weir, Intake well and within the Buffer Zone of Kanha National Park/ Tiger Reserve. An application through the online system of MoEF&CC has to be submitted. RWRM alignment of approx. length of 1485 m in between Intake well to proposed WTP will be passes through Jatta reserved forest (Adjacent to the Buffer zone). Pipes will be laid within the RoW of PMGSY road through Jatta RF; no forestland is acquired and no ecological loss during pipe laying. For, pipe laying of RWRM of length 1485 m (outside the Buffer zone) along the RoW of the PMGSY road an NoC is required from PMGSY department. Subsequently permission has to be obtained from the Forest Department for the change in use of the land. An application through the online system of MoEF&CC has to be submitted. 182. Baihar town has ASI protected temple i.e. Joda Pat temple. As mentioned above, out of total RWRM length (~4774 m) approx. length of 593 m will be laid in ASI jurisdiction on PWD road. Out of which, length of 191 m will be laid in prohibited zone (between 0- 100) and approx.

Page 43: 42486-018: Madhya Pradesh Urban Services Improvement

193

length of 402 m will be laid in regulated zone (between 100-300m) from the outer boundary of monuments; pipe laying can only be conducted with prior permission of NMA. There is no components- Weir/ Intake well/ WTP/CWS lies inside the 300 m from outer boundary of protected ASI temple (i.e. Joda Pat temple). The distance of proposed weir, intake well and WTP from the outer boundary of Temple is 2866 m, 2805 m and 615 m respectively. Although none of the components in Baihar town are located within the protected ASI temple, and all the components are proposed on vacant government land. Given the minimal excavation (0.4 m wide and 0.7 m deep), there will be no risk to any structure. Nevertheless, the works will be implemented only after due permission of ASI and also the construction methodology will be discussed with the ASI. For chance finds, works will be observed by a person with archeological background. Proposed WTP of 2.10 MLD and clear water sump of 70 KL capacity are proposed in ward no. 8, Baihar (On Baihar to malajhkhand road) beside existing WTP; and the WTP location is on a vacant government land within the town. The WTP Site is adjacent to the Boundary of Jatta Reserved forest. The proposed WTP does not come under forest area. WTP having distance of 782 m from boundary of Buffer zone of KNP and 6.03 km from core zone of KNP. 183. Malanjkhand subproject town is located about 10-11 km from the Kanha National Park (KNP)/ Kanha Tiger reserve. None of the components are located within the Eco-sensitive zone/ Buffer zone of KNP. The distances of proposed components from boundary of ESZ and core zone of KNP are mentioned in the Table- 8. Construction of weir and intake well at Banjar River near Chhindi tola. Proposed weir will be constructed across Banjar River. Aquatic life of this river has a local species such as ROHU, KATLA, MANGOORI and MIRGAL an there is no endangered found at the proposed intake location. There is no harm/impact to aquatic life to weir construction. Proposed raw water rising mains (RWRM) will be laid underground from the proposed intake well to WTP site along an existing PMGSY road. WTP location is on a vacant government land about 920 m from the intake site. None of the components however located on any forestland. Rest of the components – water treatment plant, Overhead tanks (OHTs), distribution lines, connections etc., will be located within the urban areas. All the locations of the GSR (01 no’s) and OHTs (07 no’s) are government-owned barren land with no notable tree cover. At the WTP site only, approx. 10- 12 no’s of small guava trees will be cut before the construction started. Urban local body agreed to cut the trees before the start of construction. The raw water transmission pipes, connecting proposed intake well and WTP, and clear water transmission pipes, from WTP to distribution reservoirs will be fully within the towns. While there is no natural habitat left within the town areas, the areas near river weir/intakes are intact though most of the lands there too converted into agricultural use. 184. During the construction phase, impacts mainly arise from the construction dust and noise, the need to dispose of large quantities of waste soil and import a similar amount of sand to support the pipe in the trenches; and from the disturbance of residents, businesses, traffic and important buildings by the construction work. The social impacts (access disruptions) due to construction activities are unavoidable, as the residential and commercial establishments exist along the roads where pipes will be laid. Avoidance of work at important tourist place during the peak tourist season is suggested. As weir and the intake well works are conducted in Tannor and

Banjar River, there is a risk of water contamination. Appropriate measures are suggested. 185. Anticipated impacts of water supply during operation and maintenance will be related to detection and repair of leaks, pipe bursts. These are, however, likely to be minimal, as proper design and selection of good quality pipe material shall mean that leaks are minimal. Leak repair work will be similar to the pipe-laying work. Application and handling of chlorine gas will involve certain risks, and appropriate measures are suggested for safe application. The DBO

Contractor will implement the operation stage EMP. 186. The public participation processes undertaken during project design ensured stakeholders are engaged during the preparation of the IEE. The planned information disclosure measures and process for carrying out consultation with affected people will facilitate their participation during project implementation. 187. The project’s grievance redressal mechanism will provide the citizens with a platform for redressal of their grievances, and describes the informal and formal channels, time frame, and mechanisms for resolving complaints about environmental performance. 188. The EMP will assist the PMU, PIU, PDMC and DBO contractor in mitigating the environmental impacts, and guide them in the environmentally sound execution of the proposed project. 189. A copy of the EMP/approved SEP shall be kept on-site during the construction period at all times. The EMP shall be made binding on all contractors operating on the site, and will be included in the contractual clauses. Non-compliance with, or any deviation from, the conditions set out in this document shall constitute a failure in compliance. 190. The project will benefit the general public by contributing to the long-term improvement of water supply and sewerage systems and community livability in Baihar and Malanjkhand. The potential adverse environmental impacts are mainly related to the construction period, which can be minimized by the mitigating measures and environmentally sound engineering and construction practices. 191. Therefore, as per ADB SPS, the project is classified as environmental category B and does not require further environmental impact assessment. However, to conform to government guidelines projects require (i) permission of WRD, GoMP for water abstraction from Banjar River; and construction of weir and intake well and (ii) permission of Water Resources Department (WRD), GoMP for water abstraction from Tannor river; Subsequently, permission has to be obtained from chief wildlife warden/ State Wildlife Board/ National Board of Wildlife for construction of weir, Intake well and laying of RWRM within the Buffer Zone of Kanha National Park/ Tiger Reserve. (iii) Raw water pipe laying in Baihar town (outside the Buffer zone) along the RoW of the PMGSY road a NoC is required from PMGSY department. Subsequently permission has to be obtained from the Forest Department for the change in use of the land. An application through the online system of MoEF&CC has to be submitted. (iv) permission of ASI for raw water pipe laying within jurisdiction of Joda Pat temple in Baihar town;( v) WTP requires Consent for Establishment (CFE) and Consent for Operation (CFO) from Madhya Pradesh Pollution Control Board; (vi) tree cutting permission is required from ULB, Malanjkhand for WTP construction. These permissions/approvals shall be obtained prior to invitation of bids.

192. This IEE shall be updated during the detailed design stage by the DBO contractor to reflect any changes, amendments and will be reviewed and approved by PMU. The revised final IEE will be submitted to ADB for review and web disclosure.

Climate Change and Disaster Risk Questions The following questions are not for environmental categorization. They are included in this checklist to help identify potential climate and disaster risks.

Yes No Remarks

Is the Project area subject to hazards such as earthquakes, floods, landslides, tropical cyclone winds, storm surges, tsunami or volcanic eruptions and climate changes?

√ Semi-arid zone, unreliable rainfall, less vegetation cover. Promote more efficient use of water by reducing losses and wastage to counter increased demands due to higher temperatures.

Could changes in temperature, precipitation, or extreme events patterns over the Project lifespan affect technical or financial sustainability (e.g., changes in rainfall patterns disrupt reliability of water supply; sea level rise creates salinity intrusion into proposed water supply source)?

√ Reduction in rainfall may affect the water availability from dam. Given the priority for drinking water supply, dead storage will be utilized in case of low rain fall years

Are there any demographic or socio-economic aspects of the Project area that are already vulnerable (e.g.,high incidence of marginalized populations, rural-urban migrants, illegal settlements, ethnic minorities, women or children)?

√ No

Could the Project potentially increase the climate or disaster vulnerability of the surrounding area (e.g., by using water from a vulnerable source that is relied upon by many user groups, or encouraging settlement in earthquake zones)?

Appendix 15: Sample Outline Spoils (construction waste) Management Plan • The Spoil Management Plan should be site specific and be part of the monthly

Construction Management Plan.

• The contractor, in consultation with the PIU, has to find out appropriate location/s for the disposal of the excess soil generated. The spoils should be deposited only at these sites.

• Further precautions need to be taken in case of the contaminated spoils

• The vehicle carrying the spoil should be covered properly.

• The spoils generating from each site should be removed on the same day or immediately after the work is complete. The site / road should be restored to the original condition.

I. Spoils information The spoil information contains the details like a) The type / material, b) Potential contamination by that type, c) Expected volume (site / component specific), d) Spoil Classification etc. II. Spoils management The Spoil Management section gives the details of a) Transportation of spoil b) disposal site details c) Precautions taken d) Volume of contaminated spoil, if present, d) Suggested reuse of disposal of the spoil III.

Appendix 16: Sample Outline Traffic Management Plan A. Principles for TMP around the Water Pipes Construction Sites 1. One of the prime objectives of this TMP is to ensure the safety of all the road users along the work zone, and to address the following issues:

(i) the safety of pedestrians, bicyclists, and motorists travelling through the construction zone;

(ii) protection of work crews from hazards associated with moving traffic; (iii) mitigation of the adverse impact on road capacity and delays to the road users; (iv) maintenance of access to adjoining properties; and (v) addressing issues that may delay the project.

B. Operating Policies for TMP 2. The following principles will help promote safe and efficient movement for all road users (motorists, bicyclists, and pedestrians, including persons with disabilities) through and around work zones while reasonably protecting workers and equipment.

(i) Make traffic safety and temporary traffic control an integral and high-priority element of project from planning through design, construction, and maintenance.

(ii) Inhibit traffic movement as little as possible. (iii) Provide clear and positive guidance to drivers, bicyclists, and pedestrians as they

approach and travel through the temporary traffic control zone. (iv) Inspect traffic control elements routinely, both day and night, and make

modifications when necessary. (v) Pay increased attention to roadside safety in the vicinity of temporary traffic

control zones. (vi) Train all persons that select, place, and maintain temporary traffic control

devices. (vii) Keep the public well informed. (viii) Make appropriate accommodation for abutting property owners, residents,

businesses, emergency services, railroads, commercial vehicles, and transit operations.

3. Figure A2 to Figure A12illustrates the operating policy for TMP for the construction of water pipes and the sewers along various types of roads. C. Analyze the impact due to street closure 4. Apart from the capacity analysis, a final decision to close a particular street and divert the traffic should involve the following steps:

(i) approval from the ULB/Public Works Department (PWD) to use the local streets as detours;

(ii) consultation with businesses, community members, traffic police, PWD, etc, regarding the mitigation measures necessary at the detours where the road is diverted during the construction;

(iii) determining of the maximum number of days allowed for road closure, and incorporation of such provisions into the contract documents;

(iv) determining if additional traffic control or temporary improvements are needed along the detour route;

Page 93: 42486-018: Madhya Pradesh Urban Services Improvement

243

(v) considering how access will be provided to the worksite; (vi) contacting emergency service, school officials, and transit authorities to

determine if there are impacts to their operations; and (vii) developing a notification program to the public so that the closure is not a

surprise. As part of this program, the public should be advised of alternate routes that commuters can take or will have to take as result of the traffic diversion.

5. If full road-closure of certain streets within the area is not feasible due to inadequate capacity of the detour street or public opposition, the full closure can be restricted to weekends with the construction commencing on Saturday night and ending on Monday morning prior to the morning peak period.

Figure A1: Policy Steps for the TMP

D. Public awareness and notifications 6. As per discussions in the previous sections, there will be travel delays during the constructions, as is the case with most construction projects, albeit on a reduced scale if utilities and traffic management are properly coordinated. There are additional grounds for travel delays in the area, as most of the streets lack sufficient capacity to accommodate additional traffic from diverted traffic as a result of street closures to accommodate the works. 6. The awareness campaign and the prior notification for the public will be a continuous activity which the project will carry out to compensate for the above delays and minimize public claims as result of these problems. These activities will take place sufficiently in advance of the

time when the roadblocks or traffic diversions take place at the particular streets. The reason for this is to allow sufficient time for the public and residents to understand the changes to their travel plans. The project will notify the public about the roadblocks and traffic diversion through public notices, ward level meetings and city level meeting with the elected representatives. 7. The PIU will also conduct an awareness campaign to educate the public about the following issues:

(i) traffic control devices in place at the work zones (signs, traffic cones, barriers, etc.);

(ii) defensive driving behaviour along the work zones; and (iii) reduced speeds enforced at the work zones and traffic diversions.

8. It may be necessary to conduct the awareness programs/campaigns on road safety during construction. 9. The campaign will cater to all types of target groups i.e. children, adults, and drivers. Therefore, these campaigns will be conducted in schools and community centres. In addition, the project will publish a brochure for public information. These brochures will be widely circulated around the area and will also be available at the PIU, and the contractor's site office. The text of the brochure should be concise to be effective, with a lot of graphics. It will serve the following purpose:

(i) explain why the brochure was prepared, along with a brief description of the project;

(ii) advise the public to expect the unexpected; (iii) educate the public about the various traffic control devices and safety measures

adopted at the work zones; (iv) educate the public about the safe road user behaviour to emulate at the work

zones; (v) tell the public how to stay informed or where to inquire about road safety issues

at the work zones (name, telephone, mobile number of the contact person; and (vi) indicate the office hours of relevant offices.

E. Install traffic control devices at the work zones and traffic diversion routes 10. The purpose of installing traffic control devices at the work zones is to delineate these areas to warn, inform, and direct the road users about a hazard ahead, and to protect them as well as the workers. As proper delineation is a key to achieve the above objective, it is important to install good traffic signs at the work zones. The following traffic control devices are used in work zones:

• Signs

• Pavement Markings

• Channelizing Devices

• Arrow Panels

• Warning Lights 11. Procedures for installing traffic control devices at any work zone vary, depending on road configuration, location of the work, construction activity, duration, traffic speed and volume,

Page 95: 42486-018: Madhya Pradesh Urban Services Improvement

245

and pedestrian traffic. Work will take place along major roads, and the minor internal roads. As such, the traffic volume and road geometry vary. The main roads carry considerable traffic; internal roads in the new city areas are wide but in old city roads very narrow and carry considerable traffic. However, regardless of where the construction takes place, all the work zones should be cordoned off, and traffic shifted away at least with traffic cones, barricades, and temporary signs (temporary “STOP” and “GO”). 12. Figure A2 to Figure A6 illustrates a typical set-up for installing traffic control devices at the work zone of the area, depending on the location of work on the road way, and road geometrics:

• Work on shoulder or parking lane

• Shoulder or parking lane closed on divided road

• Work in Travel lane

• Lane closure on road with low volume

• Street closure with detour

13. The work zone should take into consideration the space required for a buffer zone between the workers and the traffic (lateral and longitudinal) and the transition space required for delineation, as applicable. For the works, a 30 cm clearance between the traffic and the temporary STOP and GO signs should be provided. In addition, at least 60 cm is necessary to install the temporary traffic signs and cones. 14. Traffic police should regulate traffic away from the work zone and enforce the traffic diversion result from full street closure in certain areas during construction. Flagggers/ personnel should be equipped with reflective jackets at all times and have traffic control batons (preferably the LED type) for regulating the traffic during night time. 16. In addition to the delineation devices, all the construction workers should wear fluorescent safety vests and helmets in order to be visible to the motorists at all times. There should be provision for lighting beacons and illumination for night constructions.

1. Introduction

1.1. This Heritage Impact Assessment (HIA) is conducted for the proposed water supply scheme (WSS) for the town of Baihar in the district of Balaghat, Madhya Pradesh. Baihar town has an ancient group of twin temples, called as “Joda-Pat Temple” group which is a centrally protected monument by Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) (Refer Table 8).

1.2. The area of 100m from the monument is designated as the protected area and the area of 300m from the monument is the regulated area as per standard norms of ASI.

1.3. This document has been prepared by School of Planning and Architecture, Bhopal (SPAB) for Madhya Pradesh Urban Development Company Ltd. (MPUDC), to address the potential impacts of proposed WSS for the town of Baihar on the Built Heritage, Archaeological and Historic Landscape baseline features contributing to the heritage value of Baihar.

1.4. The proposed infrastructure is located in the town of Baihar which may have an impact due to the proposed pipelines laid nearer to the temple structure. Appropriate interventions are proposed to mitigate the impact due to the project.

1.5. This assessment should be seen as complementary to the referred documents as per the attached Annexure. The HIA for WSS for the town of Baihar draws its assessment based on the information furnished by MPUDC, Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) Bhopal Circle and ASI Jabalpur Circle (recently Baihar Town became part of ASI Jabalpur Circle) and Baihar Nagar Parishad. The information on temples is referred from the ASI website and correspondence with ASI, Bhopal Circle.

1.6. The distances of the temple complex form the proposed construction is referred from the proposed layout provided by MPUDC and onsite investigations by SPAB team.

1.7. The aspects of this HIA refrain itself from judicial matters, matters of sub-judice.

1.8. Profile of Baihar

Baihar is a medium scale town located in Balaghat District of Madhya Pradesh State (Refer Fig. 1). It belongs to the Jabalpur division. It is located 67 KM towards East from the District head quarter Balaghat. Baihar town itself is a tehsil headquarter. The Baihar Nagar Parishad has population of 16,650 as per Census of India 2011 and the area of the town is spread over in 27.62 Sq Kms. The Baihar Nagar Parishad is divided into 15 wards for which elections are held every 5 years. Out of the total 15 wards, the highest population resides in Ward No. 8, while Ward No. 15 is having lowest share of population (Refer Fig. 2 and Table 3).

2. The Heritage Value 2.1. Baihar town has an ancient group of twin temples, face each other in the east-west

direction, called as “Joda-Pat Temple” group which is a listed monument in the records of Archaeological Survey of India (ASI). The temple is built of ashlar stone masonry and is dated to twelfth century A.D. (Refer Fig. 3).

Figure 3: Image showing the close view of Joda-Pat Twin Temples Source: https://asibhopal.nic.in/gallery/balaghat_baihar_temples.html

2.2. This Siva Temple consists of a sanctum and plain mandapa on a jagati (platform). The main entrance door is plain and devoid of any decoration. The lintel has a design of stencil creeper. The jagati consists of plain mouldings while the jangha is decorated with vertical lotus pattern interlaced with ghatapallava design in the centre. Temple No. 2 is located by the side of the ancient tank, facing temple No.1. It stands on a platform and consists of mandapa and sanctum with a sikhara surmounted by a huge amalaka. It also has plain doorway at the main entrance. (Refer Fig. 4)

2.3. The temples stand on a low plinth having large stone paving on all sides. Both the temples are under distress and are supported by retaining walls and masonry piers. These supports appear to have been made by ASI many decades ago. The Shiva temple is an example of a small temple having a garbhagriha, with a small antarala. The shikhara is typical of Bhumij style with Gavaksha having sharp edges in carving , which is a typical feature of12th century temples. Few niches on the Jangha have panels of God and Godesses. Garbhagaha is a squarish chamber with pilaster columns on each corner support beams which support and shallow ceiling with floral decoration. Outer wall on the southern facade appears to be been collapsed which is now supported by retaining wall. The fragments of the south facade are probably lying in the premises.

2.4. The smaller temple is relatively plain structure, made of ashlar masonry. The stepped shikhar is mounted by an amalaka and kalash. The lintel and the masonry above the entrance door are under distress and are supported by masonry piers made many decades ago. The third structure is a simple pavilion standing of 4 pillars supporting beams and few stone slabs forming the roof are missing (Refer Fig. 4).

Figure 4: Image showing the components of Joda-Pat Twin Temples Complex Source: Photographs taken by the SPAB Team

2.5. The boundary wall is made by ASI few decades ago, probable after the town started expanding and residences started to come in the vicinity of the temple. A large number of Architectural fragments are piled up inside the temple boundary, which comprises remains from historic structures. (Refer Fig. 4)

2.6. On the website of ASI Bhopal circle, the presence of an ancient tank near Joda-Pat temples is mentioned in the description. But during the site investigation on location, no such tank is found. On querying to ASI Jabalpur circle, the Surveyor Grade-I responded that the location and protection status of the ancient tank is unknown (Ref. Annexure 3).

3. Planning and Legislative Background 3.1. The site proposed for the WSS is spread all over the town of Baihar.

3.2. Protection has been accorded by existing or emerging legislation and planning guidance through relevant planning legislation and development plans (Refer Annexure 4).

3.3. The property is managed by the management module of Archaeological Survey of India through its Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Sites and Remains Act (AMASR) 1958, its rules (1959 and 2011), its amendment (1992) and its validation and the amendment Act (2010).

3.4. In the absence of a site management plan that identifies the main issues affecting the protected sites, many documents are collated to ensure a holistic and coordinated understanding of the site. It provides a framework for the activities taking place in the area, which will ensure that the heritage qualities and character of the town of Baihar are protected.

3.5. The property falls in the jurisdiction of Baihar Nagar Parishad (Municipality) which is governed by Madhya Pradesh Bhumi Vikas Adhiniyam 1984, which can regulate and assist in the protection of heritage sites. The revenue official i.e. District Collector has a stake since the land belongs to the state government and is bound to cause the removal of any unauthorized construction in the Core and the Buffer areas.

3.6. The Superintending Archaeologist acts as an estate officer to remove encroachment if any in the Core Area as defined in the AMASR Act using provisions in the Public Premises (evection of unauthorized occupants) Act 1971.

6. Proposed Development 6.1. Baihar is a Nagar Parishad in the Balaghat district of Madhya Pradesh. The Nagar

Parishad was established in 1982. Water supply in Baihar is primarily dependent on sub-surface water sources. Presently water supply depends on both ground water source (Tube wells) and surface water source (Tannor River) and at present 0.50 MLD, supply is being made which accounts for a per capita water supply of 30 LPCD. The existing water supply facilities such as the weir and the intake well at Tannor River and WTP are in a dilapidated condition (Refer Fig. 5).

Existing weir at Baihar Existing Intake well at Baihar

Figure 5: Image showing existing Weir and Intake Well Structures Source: Detailed project report for urban water supply improvement project of Baihar town district Balaghat (Madhya Pradesh)

6.2. The demand of water supply for the year 2018, 2035 & 2050 are estimated to the

tune of 1.49 MLD, 1.72 MLD & 1.92 MLD respectively. Thus maximum of 1.92 MLD intake form the source per annum i.e. 960 ML (0.96 MCM) of drawl of water is to be ensured for the town of Baihar from main indentified source, i.e. Tannor River.

6.3. New WSS drafted for Baihar town with estimated amount of Rs. 1144.77 Lakhs; which includes proposal of a weir across the Tannor River; an intake well; raw water rising main and raw water pump to direct water from intake to Water treatment Plant (WTP); a WTP & Clear Water Sump. For key plan of Baihar WSS (Refer Fig. 7).

6.4. The Tannor River which flows north-east of the Baihar town is chosen as the water source for the proposed WSS. A 79 m long and 3.5m high weir (annicut) is proposed across the Tannor River (in series of existing one).

6.5. An intake well in RCC of 6m dia. and 9m height is proposed towards the west bank of the Tannor River near the weir.

6.6. A raw water pumping station is proposed at the intake well with 2 vertical turbine pumps (1 working & 1 standby). Discharge rate till year 2035 of both pumps will be

Page 124: 42486-018: Madhya Pradesh Urban Services Improvement

Heritage Impact Assessment for Proposed Water Supply Scheme at Baihar town

17

21.72 lps with pump capacity 10.5 KW and head 33.75 m, whereas the discharge rate will increase to 24.24 lps for successive 15 years (year 2050) of both pumps with pump capacity 13 KW and head 36.41 m.

6.7. A RWRM is proposed for a length of 4774 m in DI K-9 pipe of 200 mm dia. The RWRM is proposed from the intake at Tannor River to the proposed WTP along the Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY) & Public Works Department (PWD) roads through Jatta Reserved forest.

6.8. A new WTP of capacity 2.10 MLD is proposed in ward no. 8 to the south east of the town beside the existing WTP. The functioning of the proposed WTP includes Coagulation & Flocculation Chamber, Rapid Gravity Filter, Chlorination Chamber, Wash Water Recovery, Sludge Drying Beds, tube settlers & miscellaneous infra like compound wall, landscaping, lighting and rest rooms etc.

6.9. A Clear water sump (CWS) of Capacity of 65.6 KL is also proposed at the new WTP.

6.10. Two Centrifugal pumps are installed at the Clear Water Pumping Station at the WTP. Discharge rate till year 2035 of both pumps will be 20.58 lps with pump capacity 16.10 KW and head 55 m, whereas the discharge rate will increase to 22.98 lps for successive 15 years (year 2050) of both pumps with pump capacity 18.5 KW and head 56 m.

6.11. There are 2nos. of existing Overhead Tanks (OHT) of 800 KL & 400 KL capacity respectively in Zone-I & Zone -2. Both the OHTs are in a structurally good condition and are incorporated in the proposed WSS. Some areas will be directly served by the existing operational bore wells (Refer Fig. 6).

Existing OHT-1: 800 KL

6.12. The existing clear water rising main (CWRM) of 4860m is used in the proposed scheme and no new proposal on CWRM in the Baihar WSS. 2000m length out of 4860m; which is the CI pipe material has been laid for 15 years and it is in good condition. Whereas remaining 2860 m of pipe length (DI K-9) are laid under Mukhya Mantri Shehri Jal Praday Yojna (MMSJPY) and work has already completed by year 2019. For dimensional details of CWRM (Refer Table 9).

6.13. The distribution pipeline network of total length of 48774m is laid under MMSJPY in 2019 and hence no new proposal has been given on the same in proposed scheme.

7. Heritage Impact Assessment 7.1. Given that the heritage value of the town of Baihar, including the various built

heritage, archaeological, architectural and historic landscape features, comprises the sum of its component heritage features and attributes. The assessment of individual impact is valid for the purposes of this assessment; however consideration must be given to impact upon the Joda-Pat Temple of Baihar town. The following potential impacts on the baseline features of Baihar have been identified. They are confined to the footprint of the proposed development.

Impact of Location 7.2. The proposed intake structure on water source is about 4.7 km away via road

(approx. 3km via Aerial distance) from boundary wall of the temple complex and hence it has a neutral impact on the Joda-Pat Temple and associated PCRs.

7.3. In case of RWRM, Contour differences are not much in the archaeological influence area of Joda-pat Temple complex to range of influence area considered for laying of proposed water pipeline. Total length of RWRM will be proposed to be laid for approx. 593 m in the ASI jurisdiction. Out of which, length of 191 m will be laid in prohibited zone (between 0- 100) and approx. length of 402 m will be laid in regulated zone (between 100-300m) and laterally it is around 41.5 m away from the outer boundary of monuments. So, direct impact of this construction may considered as high in order on temple structure and pipe laying can only be conducted in supervision of ASI officials (Refer Fig. 8 and Annexure 1 & 2).

7.4. A WTP of 2.10 MLD and Clear water sump of 70 KL capacity are proposed in ward no. 8, Baihar (on Baihar to malajhkhand road) beside existing WTP, Total area required is 1.5 ha on Khasra No. 465/2; site is owned by Revenue department, Govt. of MP. This construction is about 580 mt. away (areal distance) from the boundary of Joda-pat Temple complex and direct impact of this construction is considered as neutral in nature on temple structure with respect to impact of location.

7.5. The existing CWRM is around 25 m away from boundary of the Joda-Pat Temple complex and hence any failure of joints may create trouble for temple structure so operation of existing CRWM need proper care and regular monitoring and the expected impact is of low in order (Refer Fig. 8).

7.6. There is no new OHT is proposed in this project, hence no impact due to any OHT. Nearest existing OHT-2 of 800KL is located around 1.5 km far from temple complex and it is also having neutral impact in order (Refer Annexure 1).

7.7. The existing distribution network is around 3 m to 6.5 m away (on front and rear roads respectively) from boundary of the Jod-Pat Temple complex and hence any failure of joints may create trouble for temple structure so operation of existing distribution lines need proper care and regular monitoring and the expected impact is moderate in order (Refer Fig. 9).

Impact of Activity Impact of Design and Material

7.8. DI-K9 High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) Pipes are used for the RWRM. Hence, it has a neutral impact on the heritage value with respect to its design and material.

7.9. Proposed WTP and its sump well will be constructed with an RCC-based frame with water resistant cement, above and below the ground respectively. Hence, it has a neutral impact on the heritage value with respect to its design and material.

Impact of Construction Activity at site 7.10. Due to considerable long distance of the proposed intake structure from temple

complex, the impact of construction is neutral in nature.

7.11. In case of RWRM, a stretch of pipe network will be laid on abutting main road, 41.5 mt. away from the boundary of temple complex and hence impact of construction will be in nature of moderate to high during laying process of RWRM pipe network (Refer Fig. 10).

7.12. The proposed WTP will be constructed about 580 mt. away (areal distance) from the boundary of Joda-pat Temple complex and direct impact of this construction is considered as low in order on temple structure. Rock blasting for ground excavation and uncovered concrete casting may be reason of trouble during construction process (Refer Annexure 1).

Visual Impact Assessment 7.13. The heights of the both temples are very less as compared to adjoining existing

built-ups and vegetation, and hence temples cannot be seen from the distant neighbourhoods (Refer Fig. 11).

7.14. A natural buffer is created by the adjoining development of residential structures around the temple, as there are no local site specific guidelines available and/or practised for the development of housing and infrastructure within the protected area (radius of 100 mt. from the temple complex). (Refer Annexure 1)

7.15. The distance of proposed WTP from temple is around 580 mt., hence have a neutral impact on the visual integrity of the Joda-Pat Temple.

8. Mitigation Measures The general principles for the mitigation of impacts are as under:

8.1. As the lateral distance of proposed laying of RWRM from the boundary of temple complex is around 41.5 mt. away, So the execution should only be conducted in the supervision of ASI officials.

8.2. The proposed RWRM is suggested to be laid atleast 300mm below the surface level at the shoulder side of the road, if the hard or soft rock surface will be found at the base, otherwise 800 mm depth should be adopted in trench excavation for laying purpose on normal soil bed, but primarily maintaining the designed slope of pipe alignment as per suggested in the approved DPR of Baihar WSS. Also it should be supported with a well-developed PCC base of atleast 25 mm thicknesses.

8.3. Consecutive pipe joints of RWRM are needed to be well coated and wrapped with insulation materials/tapes to protect any possible leakage due to water pressure inside the pipe (Refer Annexure 5).

8.4. Manual digging of earth is suggested for excavation purposes to protect against any structural vibration to the heritage site for laying of the RWRM. Rock blasting is not advisable.

8.4. Even though CWRM is not a part of proposed Baihar WSS, but the critical joints with multiple connections in the existing CWRM needed to be encased in an RCC chamber along with a pressure control valve wherever distribution connections are provided along the main approach road, as the existing CWRM is around 25 m away from boundary of the Joda-Pat Temple complex and hence any failure of joints may create trouble for temple structure (Refer Annexure 6).

8.5. Similarly distribution system is not a part of proposed scheme, but in case of multiple connections are provided for distribution purpose in the network within the protected area, which is hardly 2.5 to 6 mt away from the boundary of the temple complex then concerned joints are needed to be well coated and wrapped with insulation materials/ tapes to protect any possible leakage due to water pressure inside the pipe (Refer Annexure 5 & 6).

8.6. As there is a possibility of air pollution due to the construction of the proposed WTP and associated sump, which is around 580 mt. far from the heritage site. Hence, it is suggested to take necessary precautions during the time of concrete casting by covering with temporary partition.

8.7. In case of construction of sump, manual digging of earth is suggested for excavation purposes to protect against any structural vibration to the heritage site. Rock blasting is not advisable.

9. Residual Effect 9.1. The significance of residual impact is likely to enhance or be neutral. The latter may

be further improved if unidentified archaeological features are not encountered or if the information provided on them, enhancing knowledge of the heritage value of Baihar.

Table 10: Significance of Impact with mitigation on the heritage values of Baihar

9.2. Updated drawings should be available for reference at the site.

9.3. Quality control measures should be maintained at all stages of the project.

9.4. Additional beneficial results may be derived from an increased public awareness and understanding of the heritage value of Baihar.

Annexure 5: Process of wrapping, insulation and coating to Water Supply pipe as per Coating And Wrapping Of Underground Mild Steel Pipelines - Code Of Practice ( First Revision) IS Code- 10111 : 2008

The material, commonly used for coating and wrapping for underground pipelines are as under: a) Coating primer, b) Coating enamel, and c) Wrapping materials

Wrapping Material: 1. Glass fibre outer wrapping : The outer wrap shall conform to glass fibre tissue as specified in IS 14695, consist of glass fibre tissue and saturated with coal tar enamel.

2. BUTYLEN-AS50: It is a cold applied two-tape system for the leakage and corrosion prevention of pipelines with outstanding properties. A real co-extruded 3-ply plastic tape made from stabilized polyethylene carrier material with butyl rubber adhesive.

3. Water emulsion paint: All water emulsion latex paints to be used, but it must be stabilized with pigmented dispersion of water. This will generate an insoluble film-forming with high molecular-weight synthetic polymeric materials.

• There are two methods of application of coating materials, namely: a) Single Coated Double Wrap b) Double Coated Double Wrap

c) Single coated single wrap

There are three methods of application of wrapping materials, namely: a) Mill / yard wrapping b) Site wrapping c) Line wrapping

The conditions, which decide the selection of wrapping method, arc as follows:

a) Weather conditions - Under variable weather conditions the mill/ yard wrapping shall be resorted to for carrying out uninterrupted coating/ wrapping of pipes with controlled and trained labour.

b) Site conditions - Undulated ground docs not permit the line wrapping. Special surfacing of sides of trenches shall be needed for easy movement of machines and medium.

c) Size of pipeline - Small diameter pipe permits the use of line wrapping. Yard wrapping may be adopted for medium and large diameter pipes.

d) Location of site - Mill wrapping suitable and economical when the pipes are transported over small distances. When the coating and wrapping is likely to be damaged in transit due to transportation over long distances. Yard wrapping shall be preferred.
