6.0 Implementation of Environment Controls6.1 Air PollutionAir pollution can occur due to many reasons. They are due to dust generation and due to

emissions from power plant vehicles and machinery. Mitigation measures shall be

implemented to minimize the air pollution due to dust generation through maintaining the

access roads and power plant premises area in wet condition by sprinkling of water daily.

And also soil with low level of dust particles can be used in the construction of the access

roads and the surrounding areas of the site. Mitigation measures which shall be implemented

to minimize air pollution due to emissions from power plant vehicles and machinery are

inspection of the vehicles and machinery for emission levels before deploying in the power

plant work and the periodic maintenance of the vehicles and machinery. The LBPL will carry

out regular inspections on site vehicles and machinery. During power operations and

maintenance the air emissions from the engines and through the boiler operations shall be

monitored and shall be control it if beyond the stipulated emission limits.

6.2 Land PollutionSoil erosion can be occurred in nearby lands due to the obstruction of natural rainy water

ways due to earth moving and removing of inhabitant vegetation. As the preventive measure

the power plant management will create alternate rainy water ways appropriately to the site

condition. The trees and major vegetation of temporary areas such as labour camp area will

not be removed. Planting of grass shall be carried out at some locations to strengthen the soil

as appropriately.

Land pollution will also occur due to oil spills from equipment & machinery. To prevent

these incidents the site management will carry out regular inspections on site equipment &

machinery and shall be done necessary maintenance as required.

6.3 Water PollutionAir pollution can occur in many ways. They are water pollution due to sewage disposal and

water pollution due to effluent water disposal. The water pollution due to sewage disposal

shall be prevented through the construction of sewage and septic tanks as appropriate to the

conditions of the power plant sites. The water pollution due to effluent water disposal shall be

prevented through the septic tanks and sand pits were constructed to minimize impact of

effluent water disposals. The LBPL shall be working in conformance as per the waste water

rules and regulations of the local government authorities as appropriately. Waste concrete



14 | Page

shall be disposed as per the instructions of the local government authorities and through

approved waste contractors.

6.4 Noise PollutionNoise pollution will also occur due to high noise generated from equipment & machinery. As

a mitigation measure the equipment & machinery shall be checked for the availability of

necessary vibration & noise controlling parts in place before using in the site they were being.

The power plant management will carry out regular inspections on equipment & machinery.

Usage of ear mufflers shall be provided for high noise work for the power plant employees.

6.5 Oil and Chemical SpillagesBefore handling any Oil and Chemical the employees are instructed to know its properties

and follow the proper precaution and procedure. All Oil and Chemical shall be stored in

appropriate containers with proper labels. Hazardous chemical shall be effectively isolated to

avoid contamination. Incompatible materials will not be stored in the same area.

The Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) shall be maintained to get information once the

materials get spilled. Spill response mechanisms shall be implemented with the required tools

to prevent further spreading of spilled material once an emergency situation occurred. The

power plant shall be designed with required facilities to response major oil spillages from the

tank farms. The small oil spillages shall be responded immediately with oil collection trays

and using cotton absorbents. The necessary preventive measures shall be taken to avoid any

contamination with the natural environment such as water bodies and ground. Oil collection

trays and dry cotton absorbents shall be kept at the stores in-order to use during a spillage.

The oily waste and sludge shall be disposed as accordance with the standard process of the

client’s country.

6.6 Vehicle MovementsTransport of construction material & equipment will cause a nuisance to the nearby people

due to the frequent noise of vehicle movement. As a mitigation measure the power plant

management will control the number of vehicles arriving per particular period and restricted

transportation only during the day time.

6.7 Waste ManagementThe LBPL shall be concerned about the impact of land pollution due to solid waste disposal.

The waste shall be collected in to a one location of the power plant. Some of them shall be

reused while others disposed. Waste disposal shall be done as appropriately as per rules and



15 | Page

regulations of the local government authorities. The LBPL will take necessary measures to

prevent land pollution through the disposal of reinforcement material off cuts. During the

construction period power plant management shall be instructed to collect all the

reinforcement material off cuts in to a one location of the site. Some shall be reused while

some shall be disposed as appropriately as per rules and regulations of the local government

authorities. Land pollution due to the disposal of waste concrete shall be minimized. Excess

concrete shall be reduced through accurate measure of quantities during the planning stage.

3R System(1) Reduce

(2) ReuseThe reuse of the waste shall be considered as the next most desirable option. It is any

operation where products or materials that are not waste are used again for the same purpose

for which they were intended. The reuse procedure will comprise with checking, cleaning,

repairing, and/or refurbishing, entire items or spare parts.

(3) Recycle

Recycling of waste shall be the next step in priority. The waste shall be segregated as used,

reused, or unused items. Recycling will involves in sorting and processing the recyclable

products into raw material and then remanufacturing the recycled raw materials into new

products.

The reduction of waste is the most vital point in the waste

hierarchy. The environment management programmes

will be implemented to reduce waste generation by it’s

source. Reduction minimizes the generation of waste

products in the first place by it’s source.

7.0 Environment Mitigation PlanThe environmental management programs are being carried out as an integrated part of the

project planning and execution. This plan interacts dynamically as project implementation

proceeds, dealing flexibly with environmental impacts, both expected and unexpected.

7.1 Pre-Operation Phase (Construction Phase)The environmental management during the construction phase primarily focused on

addressing the possible negative impacts arising mainly from:

· Generation and disposal of sewage, solid waste and construction waste.

· Increased Traffic

· Generation of dust

· Generation of noise

The LBPL also focus on enhancing the possible beneficial impacts arising from employment

of local workforce for construction works. The below table summarizes the potentially

7.3 Post - Operation PhaseThe environmental management during the post-operation phase primarily focused on

addressing the possible negative impacts on the environment. The major environmental

impacts during post-operation or decommissioning phase of a thermal power plant includes,

Generation of solid waste and disposal, oil spillages, generation of dust, generation of noise.

Solid waste generated will be collected and disposed properly through the approved waste

contractors. In-order to minimize the leakages of spent lube oil from plant equipment, the oil

collection trays and cotton absorbents will be used. Some dust will be generated during

demolition works of the power plant. To address the dust generation due to demolition work,

daily watering of bare areas will be carried out. The other major environmental impact during

post-operation of a thermal power plant is noise and vibration. As the demolition works are
