I. INTRODUCTION 1. On 24 April 2007, the Asian Development Bank (ADB) approved the loan for the Anhui Hefei Urban Environment Improvement Project1 from its ordinary capital resources for $150.0 million. The loan and project agreements were signed on 28 August 2007 and became effective on 8 January 2008. The expected loan closing date is 31 March 2013. 2. The total project cost is $372.36 million, of which $150 million is to be financed by ADB, with the remaining $222.36 million to be financed by the People's Republic of China (PRC) through a combination of Hefei municipal government (HMG) and district government budget sources ($82.94 million and $71.4 million, respectively), domestic loans from PRC banks ($55.7 million), and enterprise bonds ($12.32 million). 3. This Board paper describes the change in scope and implementation arrangements arising from the cancellation of the Xinzhan Zone road infrastructure and traffic management component of the Project (component 3). The component sought to improve road infrastructure and traffic management in the Xinzhan Zone and would require permanent acquisition of approximately 344 hectares of land (69% of which is cultivated). The component cannot be implemented as planned because of restrictions placed on the use of agricultural land for infrastructure by the Government. In view of this, HMG, the project executing agency (EA), has proposed canceling this component and reallocating the allocated loan proceeds to component 1 (wastewater and waste management) and component 2 (river rehabilitation and flood control improvement), and increasing the percentage of ADB financing of a subcomponent in component 2. 4. The cancellation as proposed by HMG will change the overall purpose of the Project in terms of the benefits that would result from improvement of transport services. The change qualifies as a major change in scope under para. 6 of Project Administration Instructions 5.04.2

II. BACKGROUND 5. The Project is a key environmental improvement and management initiative undertaken by HMG to meet national environmental guidelines and ensure Hefei’s sustainable growth. As designed, the Project aims to bring tangible benefits to the environment of Hefei, the capital of Anhui province, by (i) enhancing the quality of its water resources; (ii) strengthening wastewater treatment facilities and sewer networks; (iii) reducing the incidence and damage of flooding in three rivers and Chao Lake; and (iv) improving urban air quality, and reducing road accidents and vehicular emissions through a more efficient city road network and integrated transport management operations in a model development zone. The Project provides institutional capacity-building in support of urban environmental management and policy reforms to ensure sustainability of the Project and related facilities. 6. The impact of the Project as designed is to improve the urban environment, public health, and quality of life in Hefei by (i) reducing waterborne and airborne diseases, road accidents, and vehicular emissions; and (ii) increasing employment, investment, and business

opportunities. The outcome of the Project as designed will be improved public wastewater management, flood control, and transport services in Hefei by

(i) increasing the wastewater treatment rate from 50% to 80% by 2012; (ii) upgrading water quality from worse than class V to at least class V in Banqiao,

Ershibu, and Sili rivers by 2012, with longer-term potential for upgrading to between class IV and class V by 2015 and eventually to class III;

(iii) reducing the probability of floods in the Banqiao, Ershibu, and Sili rivers from an average of every 3–5 years to 50–100 years by 2011–2012;

(iv) reducing the probability of floods in Chao Lake from an average of every 10–20 years to at least every 20 years, and reducing erosion of the lake bank and improving the ecological environment of the lake by 2012; and

(v) creating a sustainable road transport system that is safe, economically viable, and environmentally friendly in the Xinzhan Zone by 2012, resulting in increased industrial development, more jobs, and better health and safety.

7. The design and monitoring framework contained in the report and recommendation to the President is in Appendix 1. 8. HMG is the EA for the Project. The project implementing agencies (IAs) are (i) Hefei Urban Construction Investment Company (HUCIC), (ii) Hefei Chao Lake Ecological and Environmental Improvement Construction and Administrative Bureau, and (iii) Hefei Xincheng State Assets Operating Co. Ltd. There are seven subcomponents under HUCIC being carried out through the following arrangements: (i) HUCIC manages the Qingxi Road Landfill Rehabilitation subcomponent; (ii) the Hefei Municipal Drainage Office manages three subcomponents (Ershibu River, Banqiao River, and Sili River flood control); and (iii) the Hefei Wastewater Treatment Administrative Department manages three subcomponents, (Shiwuli River wastewater treatment plant [WWTP], Wangtang WWTP phase II, and Hefei sewerage improvement). The Hefei Chao Lake Ecological and Environmental Improvement Construction and Administrative Bureau is directly in charge of the Chao Lake subcomponent. Hefei Xincheng State Assets Operating Co. Ltd. (HXSAOC) implements the Xinzhan Zone component. Institutional capacity building is being implemented through the project management office (PMO). A. Scope of the Project 9. As designed, the Project has three components: (i) wastewater and waste management, (ii) river rehabilitation and flood control improvement, and (iii) improved road infrastructure and traffic management in the Xinzhan zone. These components comprise 10 infrastructure investment subcomponents, with institutional capacity building undertaken through the project management and operation component. 1. Wastewater and Waste Management 10. The component has four subcomponents, the first of which is the construction of the Shiwuli River WWTP, with a capacity of 50,000 cubic meters per day (m3/day) and a network of 73.7 kilometers (km). The second subcomponent is the construction of Wangtang phase II WWTP with a treatment capacity of 100,000 m3/day, a recycled water pump station with a capacity of 35,000 m3/day, and about 33.4 km of sewer network. The third subcomponent is the construction of sewers for four WWTPs throughout Hefei City, which will include installation of

3

206 km of sewer network of varying diameters and construction of one sewage pumping station. The fourth subcomponent is improvement to the closed Qingxi Road Landfill site, including installation of (i) a capping system and surface water drainage system to prevent rainwater infiltration; (ii) a leachate collection and piping system to Wangtang WWTP; (iii) a gas collection and gas flare-off system; (iv) a vertical subsurface membrane wall to prevent groundwater intrusion and leakage of leachate into the Nanfei River; and (v) extensive landscaping and planting of an urban park. 2. River Rehabilitation and Flood Control Improvement 11. The river rehabilitation and flood control improvement component in Hefei has four subcomponents. The first three subcomponents comprise rehabilitation and flood control improvement for the Banqiao, Ershibu, and Sili rivers. Work includes river dredging, widening and reinforcement of banks, sediment disposal from dredging, and construction of storm water discharge pipelines. Storm water pumping stations, sewer mains, and sewerage pump stations will also be constructed to enable transfer to WWTPs. Ancillary works include construction of access roads and bridges, and necessary landscaping. The fourth subcomponent involves improvements to Chao Lake flood control works to enhance the ecological environment, strengthen water and soil conservation, and increase flood control capacity. Work includes extension of up to 35.7 km of banks, construction of 20.7 km of erosion control structures, construction of a 56.3 km wave break forest belt, construction of wave breaks (walls), and road construction around the lake banks.

3. Improved Road Rehabilitation and Flood Control Improvement 12. The component on improved road infrastructure and traffic management in the Xinzhan Zone was intended to focus on improving road infrastructure and traffic management in the Xinzhan Zone, including by building nine roads (three main trunk roads and six secondary trunk roads). As designed, work was to include construction of 26.4 km of roads and complete ancillary works, including necessary storm water network associated with the construction; and completion and testing of a pilot traffic management, surveillance, and control system to ensure sustainable, integrated, and safe operation after project completion. 4. Institutional Capacity Building 13. The Project also provides for institutional capacity building for project management to ensure that the stakeholders are able to implement the Project effectively and to manage project facilities. Capacity building will include project management consulting services and training during loan implementation. This is intended to help the IAs (i) become operationally efficient and financially sustainable entities; (ii) comply with relevant national policies for cost recovery, tariff, and enterprise reforms of the wastewater sector; (iii) develop sound operation and maintenance plans for future service provision and commercial growth; (iv) develop a public awareness training program on environmental protection and social impact monitoring; and (v) improve the efficiency of traffic management in the Xinzhan zone. B. Original Cost Estimates and Financing Plan 14. The total cost of the Project was estimated at $372.36 million, financed through (i) the ADB loan to finance 40.3% of the project cost (equivalent to $150 million) to cover civil works, equipment and supplies, project management consulting services, and training and financial

charges on the loan during construction; and (ii) the Government, which agreed to finance the remaining $222.36 million through a combination of HMG ($82.94 million) and district government budget sources ($71.4 million), domestic loans from PRC banks ($55.7 million), and enterprise bonds ($12.32 million). The original cost estimates and financing plan are in Appendix 2. C. Status of Project Implementation 1. Wastewater and Waste Management 15. Shiwuli River WWTP has nine civil works and four equipment contracts, of which five civil works and three equipment contracts have been awarded. The following have been achieved: (i) about 82% of phase 1 and phase 2 civil works have been completed, (ii) 24.3 km of sewerage pipelines have been constructed and 6.9 km pipelines are under construction, and (iii) the civil works for Feilong Road Pump Station has already started. It is expected that the WWTP will be completed during the first half of 2009; the remaining sewage pipelines will be undertaken together with the city road construction. 16. Wangtang WWTP has seven civil works and six equipment contracts, of which three civil works and two equipment contracts have been awarded. About 72% of the WWTP civil works have been finished or are expected to be completed by mid-2009. The remaining eight contracts are expected to be awarded during the first half of 2009. 17. Improvement of Hefei municipal sewers has eight civil works, one geographic information system and one equipment contracts, of which four civil works contracts have been awarded. About 29.6 km of pipelines have been constructed and about 11 km of pipelines are currently under construction. Of the remaining four civil works contracts, two will be awarded in 2009. 18. Improvement of the closed Qingxi Road Landfill site has two civil works contracts and one miscellaneous equipment contract. Construction has been completed and the equipment contract has been awarded. 2. River Rehabilitation and Flood Control Improvement 19. Ershibu River rehabilitation and flood control improvement has six civil works and two equipment contracts. Contract awards for three civil works have been approved in December 2008. The remaining contracts are to be awarded in 2009 and completion of this component is expected in mid-2010. 20. Banqiao River rehabilitation and flood control improvement has six civil works and two equipment contracts. Three civil works and one equipment contracts have been awarded. Construction is ongoing for the three civil works contracts, with 7.8 km of sewage pipeline and 16% of the river channel dredging completed. 21. Sili River rehabilitation and flood control improvement has six civil works and three equipment contracts. Three civil works contracts have been awarded and the award of three more contracts was approved by ADB in December 2008. One civil works contract has been completed.

22. Chao Lake flood control has four civil works and one equipment contracts. Contracts for wave prevention and bank protection have been awarded and works will be completed by the second quarter of 2009. 3. Improved Road Rehabilitation and Flood Control Improvement 23. This component has not started because of problems associated with land acquisition (para. 3). The EA has proposed cancellation of this component. 4. Institutional Capacity Building 24. The Project provides institutional capacity-building measures in urban environmental management and policy reforms to ensure sustainability of the Project and related facilities. A project management consultant has been engaged to assist the EA in implementing institutional capacity building. The services are ongoing and the consultants have provided training to the PMO and IAs on procurement, construction and financial management, and operation of the WWTP, pumping station, and sewerage pipeline system. 25. Loan Covenants. Compliance with the covenants in the Loan Agreement is satisfactory. 26. Contract Awards and Disbursements. Project implementation is progressing well, with 49.8% of the loan amount contracted and 25.9% of the loan amount disbursed as of 23 April 2009. A total of 33 contracts have been awarded. The status of contract awards and disbursements by component is in Appendix 3.

III. THE PROPOSED CHANGES A. Change in Project Scope 27. At the end of 2007, the EA, IA, and PMO reported to the loan inception mission that the Xinzhan Zone road infrastructure and traffic management component did not start as planned due to the delay in obtaining approval from the Government for agricultural land acquisition. According to PRC legislation, the use of agricultural land for construction requires approval of the State Council. As a result of the latest economic developments, including a shortfall in agricultural production due to reduced output from agricultural land and the economic recession, the Government has restricted allocation of agricultural land for infrastructure construction, making approval highly unlikely. To avoid project implementation delays, the EA proposed canceling this component and replacing it with a similar component commensurate with the current project component in terms of objectives, scope, and cost. The proposed replacement was submitted in April 2008 and reviewed by ADB for compliance with ADB safeguard policies. The review revealed that the proposal does not meet ADB safeguard requirements, and substantial time and resources would be required to complete the environment and social impact assessment. It was agreed that the proposal would be discussed in detail during the loan review mission in November 2008. 28. In November 2008, the ADB loan review mission was informed that the previously proposed replacement component would no longer be pursued because the IA was financially over-leveraged and therefore unable to provide counterpart funding during the first 2 years of proposed component implementation. Consequently, it was proposed that the road infrastructure and traffic management component be cancelled.

29. The component was intended to address traffic management and to help minimize air pollution generated from traffic volumes associated with urban development. The Xinzhan Zone was to be used as pilot area, with the approach expanded across Hefei and potentially to other cities in the PRC, if successful. With the proposed cancellation, the Project's anticipated impact will not be fully realized, in terms of benefits such as: (i) improved road networks and road conditions; (ii) increased mobility; (iii) reduced traffic congestion and vehicle operation costs; (iv) improved road safety and reduced traffic accidents; (v) reduced travel time; and (vi) better and quicker access to markets, employment, and income-generation opportunities. The revised design and monitoring framework is in Appendix 4. B. Change in Implementation Arrangements 30. The responsibility of HXSAOC as IA would cease following cancellation of the Xinzhan Zone road infrastructure and traffic management component, necessitating changes in the loan and project agreements. C. Reallocation of Loan Proceeds and Increase in ADB Financing of Subcomponent

2.1 (Ershibu River Rehabilitation and Flood Control Improvement) 31. The total project cost is currently estimated at $429.70 million, against the appraisal estimate of $372.36 million (Appendix 5). The increase in total project cost is due to the actual cost of contracts being higher than estimated during appraisal as a result of unusual increases in labor costs and construction materials in the recent years. The EA requested that the total savings of $36.3 million realized from (i) cancellation of $30.8 million from Component 3 (Xinzhan Zone Road), (ii) identified savings of $2.184 million from Qingxi Road Landfill, and (iii) $3.325 million from Sili River Rehabilitation be reallocated to the remaining subcomponents. The proposed reallocation of loan proceeds and the distribution of $36.3 million is presented in Appendix 6. 32. In order to maximize utilization of loan proceeds, the EA also proposed increasing the financing of subcomponent 2.1 (Ershibu River rehabilitation and flood control improvement) from 48% to 70%, to be in line with the financing percentage of other subcomponents. Schedule 3 of the Loan Agreement would be revised to reflect the increased ADB financing of Ershibu River Rehabilitation and Flood Control Improvement (category 1.5). The revised Schedule 3 of the Loan Agreement is in Appendix 7.

IV. ASSESSMENT 33. The change in project scope and implementation arrangements will not materially affect the overall impact of the Project, which is to improve the environment, public health, and quality of life in Hefei City. There are no incremental impacts on the environment and persons affected by involuntary resettlement and land acquisition. The financing plan of the Project as approved by the Board will not change; i.e., the ADB loan will remain at $150.0 million and the remaining cost is to be financed by the Government. The change in project management structure resulting from the cancellation of component 3 will not materially affect the implementation arrangements of the remaining Project components. The approval of the change in scope and implementation arrangements will facilitate project implementation and will address the expected cost overrun.

V. RECOMMENDATION 34. The Management recommends that the Board approve on a no-objection basis the major change in scope, change in implementation arrangements, and reallocation of loan proceeds arising from the cancellation of Xinzhan Zone road infrastructure and traffic management component of the Project.
