3 P OTENTIAL E NVIRONMENTAL I MPACTS AND E FFECTS

3.1 Potential Environmental Impacts

The following table considers the majority of environmental impactsassociated with the construction of the Works under Package D:

Trang 20

Main Activities

ing Plants and vegetation

dent during clearance

Trang 21

Main Activities

avation and compaction of

es from plant / equipment

king material, iron, plastic, steel etc

Trang 22

Impact(s) upon Water Environment

 Activities of the workers in the constructionarea will produce domestic waste (wastewater, solid waste) thatcauses effect to water environment Pollution levels andimpacts to water environment depend upon number of workerand the procedures for waste management Total quantity ofdomestic wastewater from areas of workers should be in theregion of 15 m3/day (based on an estimation of an average of

250 workers in the construction area during peak periods) Thisquantity of wastewater is not high but it may contain micro-organism that can lead to adverse affects on a person’s health

In this event the Contractor shall consider the use of availablemeans for wastewater discharge and treatment

1,929mm / year with most of the rain, 1,788mm, falling duringthe rainy season from May to November) This rain maypotentially be polluted by oil and / or construction material if notcarefully monitored and correclty managed

 Domestic waste and residual oil from traffic may lead topollution of the water environment if not correctly managed;

 Road vehicles and construction vehicles may collide, and / orbreakdown, causing engine fluids, fuel and / or hydraulic fluidsspilling into the adjacent water environment;

Summary:

The above are typical examples that potentially present asignificant risk to the Environment Notwithstanding theaforementioned the management of these examples is relativelystraightforward, therefore the possibility of reducing the risks /effects is considered realistic

Impact(s) upon the Air Environment

 Dust, sand pollution (mainly from site clearance, transportationactivities and construction activities such as discharge system,water supply system etc.) can present a cause of impact forworkers and the ambient environment At the moment, dustconcentration(s) in the project area is in the range of 0.1 - 0.3mg/m3, but during the construction stage, it is inevtiable thatdust concentration(s) will increase Past experience indicatesthat when measuring between 50 - 100 m in the downwinddirection, dust concentration(s) are in the range of 10 - 20

Trang 23

mg/m3, exceeding standard concentration(s) in the ambientenvironment

Potential impacts for workers are pneumoconioses, respiratorydifficulties, skin-disease and similar irritational ailments Forinhabitants in the vicinity of the project area, dust pollutionshould only affect those areas in the downwind direction

 Transportation methods, machinery, equipment and plant allproduce waste air Waste air components in this respecttypically consist of COx, NOx, SOx, hydrocarbon, aldehyde, dustetc Pollution loading can be calculated based on the pollutionload coefficients in Tables 3.2.1, 3.2.2 and 3.2.3 below and onPage 18

Effect for terrestrial biology in the project site may benoticeable

Other Impact(s)

 Impacts resulting from transportation ofmachines, equipment, materials and the like such as noise,dust etc.;

activities;

Impact(s) upon the Socio-Economic Condition(s)

 Transportation

Construction activities will increase traffic density Therefore,these activities will have impacts for environment such as noise,dust, waste air

 Fluctuation of Prices of Goods

Price fluctuation for construction materials in the vicinity of theexecution of the Works may be encountered

Labour Accident

Trang 26

 Environmental pollution may affect theConstruction Workers health;

 Insufficient and / or poor safety management;Combustion Capacity

The inherent capacity for combustion may increase due to thefollowing reasons:

 Use of naked flame during the constructionprocess;

 Carelessness of workers; (i.e smoking,cooking and the like);

or a soil trap in order to prevent free scattering ofmaterials possibly into nearby existing watercourse(s);The input flow rate of wastewater generated fromequipment cleaning and washing works is usuallyconsistent, however there is a tendency for this value toincrease significantly at the end of working day Total solidsuspension (SS) of wastewater usually rises suggestingpossible contamination by oil and / or surfactant(s) Aftertreatment this SS value is generally reduced

(g) Prevention of Hazardous Material Impregnating the Soil

To minimize the effects to the Environment, specifically tothe underlying soil strata and protection of natural habitats

The necessary methods are:

- The materials used for backfill shall comply withthe mechanical and chemo-physical requirements, asspecified in the Contract Specifications;

- The area of construction, whilst extensive, isfairly limited in terms of the quantum of backfill(approximately 150,000m3), therefore adverse affectsare not anticipated to any great extent;

- The prevailing sub-soil water quality may bechecked The hazardous materials like chemicals, oilsshall be treated separately, specifically and legally;

- Conservation of green areas as far is asreasonably possible by replacement with new plantingwhen it is necessary / deemed appropriate;
