A. Introduction 1. This Environmental Management Plan (EMP) identifies the potential environmental impacts and defines mitigation measures and monitoring requirements for the design and pre-construction, construction, and operation stages of the project. It also defines the institutional arrangements, roles and responsibilities of institutions involved and cost estimates for implementation of the EMP. The EMP will ensure environmental protection activities during all stages of the project implementation to prevent, reduce or mitigate adverse environmental impacts and risks. The EMP draws on the findings of the project initial environmental examination (IEE) report and discussions and agreements with Electricity Supply Enterprise (ESE) and the Asian Development Bank (ADB). 2. This EMP is based on preliminary design as of April 2020. Detailed engineering designs are yet to be finalized and may require subsequent revisions to this EMP. The ESE will provide the detailed designs to ADB for review to determine if the EMP requires revision. The draft and final EMP will be disclosed on the ADB public website (https://www.adb.org/) and included in the project administration manual (PAM). The final EMP will be included as a separate annexure in all bidding, tender and contract documents. The contractors1 will be informed of their obligations to implement the EMP and to include EMP implementation costs in their bids for project works that will include new construction of substations, 66kV and 33 kV distribution lines and extension works on existing substations. 3. The project involves the procurement of four (4) plants – design, supply, and installation contract packages consisting of three (3) packages for substations and one (1) package for the distribution automation system (DAS); and two (2) goods contracts for conductors and hardware, which will be undertaken through OCB with international advertisement. One (1) goods contract with 3 lots for the supply of concrete poles and seven (7) line installation works contracts with 26 lots will be undertaken through OCB with national advertisement).2
B. Mitigation and Monitoring Plan
4. This EMP covers the project area of influence and consists of three components: (i) project readiness checks for effective environmental management during design and pre-construction stage and environmental mitigation measures during construction and operation stage; and (ii) environmental monitoring measures during all stages of project implementation. C. Institutional Arrangements and Implementation Responsibilities 5. Executing Agency. The Government Ministry of Electricity and Energy (MOEE) will be the executing agency (EA) responsible for overall supervision and monitoring of project implementation and compliance with loan and grant assurances and the ESE under MOEE will be the implementing agency (IA). 6. Project Management Unit. The ESE will establish the project management unit (PMU). The PMU will have the responsibility to supervise and oversee compliance with (i) environmental
1 Contractors imply = Engineering Procurement, Construction (EPC) contractors, any key sub-contractors, and facility operators (Note: EMP implementation during operation stage will continue through the Project Implementation Units (PIUs) and for extension works at existing 230kV substations through the Department of Power Transmission and Supply Control (DPTSC) that is the facility operator 230 kV substations in Myanmar). 2 Project Administration Manual (PAM) for AREP, June 2020

safeguards requirements, (ii) coordinate the project Grievance Redress Mechanism (GRM), (iii) coordinate with line ministries to ensure smooth implementation of the project3, (iv) engage the project implementation consultancy (PIC) services, (v) supervise the procurement process, and (vi) report to the ADB. In particular, the PMU will ensure consistency of safeguards documents with government policy, legal and administrative framework across all jurisdictions – national, state and local level. To ensure effective implementation of environmental safeguards procedures, the PMU will assign one staff person as an environment & social manager and two staff persons as environment and social officers, on full time basis. 7. Project Implementation Units. The PMU will set up four Project Implementation Units (PIUs) at each Region / State ESE office. The PMU will assign to each PIU at least one full time staff person to handle environment & social safeguards implementation and serve as focal point persons on the field (PIU E&S focal point person); the PIUs will be responsible for day to day activity and compliance with safeguards during project implementation in the field including engaging in project GRM, information disclosure and meaningful consultations. 8. Project Implementation Consultant Services. PIC services will be engaged to assist PMU and PIUs with the implementation of the project, EMP and oversight of the contractors. At the end of PIC services contract, PMU will be responsible for ensuring compliance with safeguards. 9. The PIC will: (a) update, as necessary, the IEE, EMP, Resettlement and Ethnic Group Development Plan (REGDP), and, after obtaining ADB’s approval, oversee their implementation; (b) work and coordinate with contractors to develop and finalize package-specific site EMPs (SEMPs), and after obtaining approval of PMU, oversee their implementation; (c) conduct Environmental, Health and Safety (EHS) audit of existing substation that will undergo extension works; (d) supervise the design, supply, installation, and commissioning of the electricity distribution infrastructure; and (e) assist PMU, PIUs and contractors with compliance to ADB SPS requirements including handling complaints and/or grievances filed through the project GRM, if any. 10. The PIC will also be responsible for building ESE’s capacity in financial management, contract administration, safeguards monitoring and reporting. 11. In addition, PIC will assist the PMU and PIUs in coordination activities with relevant government agencies and local authorities on permits and clearances and compliance with relevant national regulatory requirements. The PIC will also assist the PMU, PIUs and contractors in conducting project level COVID-19 risk assessment as well as conduct random checks / audits of contractor’s EHS performance. PIC will ensure that the contractor’s Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) plans integrate measures to mitigate COVID-19 health risks that are aligned with government guidelines and measures listed in Part III of this Annexure.4,5 12. The PIC will work with ESE to prepare and submit the domestic IEE or EMP to the Environmental Conservation Department (ECD) or the Ministry of Natural Resources and
3 The PMU will ensure that subproject activities are synchronized between the REGDP and EMP implementation. The PMU will also ensure that no physical or economic displacement of affected persons (APs) will occur until: (i) compensation at full replacement cost has been paid to each affected person for subproject or sections of subprojects that are ready to be constructed; and (ii) other entitlements listed in the REGDP are provided to the APs. . 4 National guidance on Covid-19 is issued by the Ministry of Health and Sports (MOHS); web-link: https://www.mohs.gov.mm/ 5 The contractor’s OHS plans will be reviewed by PIC in consultation with public health inspectors of the area, local medical officers and other relevant health specialists; with a recommendation forwarded to the EA and IA for clearance.

14. Contractors. All contractors will be responsible for implementing the mitigation measures during construction and operation under the direct supervision of the PIC and PIUs and overall supervision of the PMU. To ensure that the contractors comply with the EMP provisions, the PMU will ensure that the safeguards requirements are included in all bids, contracts and tender documents including the provision to apply penalties in case non-compliances to safeguards are encountered repeatedly. 15. Each contractor will be required to work with PIC to finalize package-specific site Environmental Management Plan (SEMP) during construction, appoint a C-EHS focal point person within its staff on full time basis and submit monthly progress reports on the implementation of the site SEMP/EMP. Contractors will integrate COVID-19 health risk mitigation in their OHS plans. Contractors will also engage in project GRM and appoint a C-GRM focal point person within its staff on full time basis and will be required to regularly co-ordinate with affected persons (APs), households, General Administration Department (GAD), and village leaders to provide up to date information on project activities and address any issues that arise during subproject implementation during construction stage. The PIC will assist contractors / facility operators / PIUs in developing and implementing the Standard Operation & Maintenance Plans (SOMPs) during operation stage. The PIUs / facility operators will be required to regularly co-ordinate with APs/ households, GAD, and village leaders to provide up to date information on project activities and address any issues that arise during subproject implementation during operation stage.
D. Monitoring and Reporting Procedures
16. The PMU will be responsible for safeguards reporting. The PIUs, assisted by the PIC, will conduct monitoring for each subproject and provide the environment input based on site visits, compliance checks and prepare the subproject Quarterly Progress Reports (QPRs) for submission to the PMU; the PMU will verify the information and submit the project QPRs to ADB.6 The PIC will support the PMU to use the information from the project QPRs and prepare a safeguards monitoring report (template enclosed as Appendix 7 of IEE) for submission to ADB semi-annually during construction stage and annually during operation stage. The safeguards monitoring reports will be publicly disclosed on the ADB website. Reporting to ADB will continue until project completion report is issued. 17. The PIUs will be responsible for safeguards monitoring. The PIUs, assisted by PIC, will coordinate and interact with the PMU on compliance to ADB safeguards requirements and with

relevant government agencies and local authorities on permits and clearances and national environmental requirements, update and finalize the IEE and EMP as needed. 18. The PIC will assist the PMU, PIUs and contractors 7 in handling complaints and/or grievances filed through the project GRM, if any. The PIC will oversee three types of project monitoring conducted under the EMP.
(i) Project readiness monitoring. To be conducted by the PMU with assistance of PIC
(see Project Readiness Checklist); (ii) Environmental monitoring. To be conducted by the PIUs and contractors, assisted
by PIC, across all stages of project implementation as described in the EMP and assessing compliance with applicable Myanmar environmental quality standards (This is provided in Part II of this EMP); and
(iii) Compliance monitoring. To be conducted by the PMU, assisted by PIC to verify
EMP mitigation and monitoring compliance during project implementation, including random checks / audits of contractor’s EHS performance.
19. During construction, the contractor(s) will submit monthly progress reports to the PIUs on site SEMP/ EMP implementation which will inform the project QPR and semi-annual safeguard monitoring reports. The contractor monthly progress reports will include compilation of daily monitoring sheets (that will be prepared for use by PIC) that is duly signed by the PIU E&S focal point person. 20. During operation, the facility operator/ contractor will also submit monthly progress reports to PIUs for the first year of operation and quarterly progress reports thereafter. These will inform the annual safeguard monitoring reports. 21. ADB will oversee subproject compliance based on the subproject QPRs and semi-annual and annual monitoring reports provided by the PMU and site visits (generally one to two times per year). For any non-compliance, ADB will make suitable recommendations for undertaking remedial measures for mid-term correction and improvement, if required. ADB’s monitoring and supervision activities are carried out on an on-going basis until a project completion report is completed.

F. Information Disclosure, Consultation and Participation
24. Consultation during design and pre-construction. Section 7 of the IEE describes the public consultations, information disclosure and participation activities carried out during project preparation. 25. Future Consultations. A detailed Consultation and Participation Plan will be prepared for the affected persons (APs) in the project area and other relevant stakeholders with schedule, location, invited participants, information to be disseminated and methods of consultation; this will be based on the project Stakeholder Communication Plan. An overview activity outline for a Consultation and Participation Plan is enclosed. Consultations with the APs will include dissemination of project information booklet (PIB) in Burmese. The PIB will include project information such as on project environmental impacts (positive and negative), safeguards measures including community health and safety, health & safety risks due to transmittable diseases (HIV/AIDs, COVID-19), training in emergency response (ERPs), project implementation schedule, results from environmental baseline surveys, land acquisition and compensation process as per REGDP), APs right to complain and the project GRM. The PID will also include the contact information including ESE website address, PMU, PIUs, PIC and contractors address and telephone number for focal point persons / local entry points e.g. C-EHS and G-GRM, GAD and village leaders. 26. Consultations with the APs will provide a two-way information-sharing channel, ensuring that the concerns, questions and ideas of the APs will be discussed and responded to in an appropriate and gender inclusive way. The PIUs, PIC and contractors will record all information dissemination and consultation activities and the results from consultations with the APs. The PIUs and PIC will also record how concerns raised and recommendations made are addressed in the updated IEE and EMP. Consultations will be supported and supervised by PMU. Consultations with APs, concerned stakeholders especially the affected communities, and households will continue throughout project implementation and will be open and gender inclusive. The updated IEE and EMP will be disclosed on ADB website as required by the ADB SPS 2009 and Access to Information Policy (September, 2018)9.

G. Project GRM 27. A project specific GRM will be established as part of this EMP to receive and manage any public concerns, issues or grievances that may arise due to the project. The GRM comprises: (i) a set of clear procedures developed by the PMU to receive, record and address any concerns which are raised by affected stakeholders; and (ii) specific contact details for individuals at the PMU, PIUs and contractor level that serve as focal point persons for access to the GRM. 28. Composition and Area of Jurisdiction. The PMU will set up a Grievance Redress Committee (GRC) as soon as the project commences. GRC will function from construction to operation stage. The GRC will be established at two levels across the project area of influence where the subprojects will be implemented. 29. GRC at PIU level (ESE PIU Office at Region/State). As practiced, the GRC at PIU level will include local two representatives of affected person (AP), including a woman representative, one GAD person from the concerned township, contractor EHS and GRM focal point persons (C-EHS and C-GRM), one representative from concerned government line agencies (e.g. Revenue, Forest, etc.), PIU E&S focal point person PIC national environment and social specialists, project manager and project director PIU region office. 30. GRC at PMU Level (ESE PMU Office at Naypyitaw). GRC at PMU level will include one representative of PMU (E&S manager, officers), director, project implementation (ESE), director, civil (ESE), director, planning (ESE). 31. Responsibilities. The GRC is expected to: (i) resolve issues on dust, noise, vibration, construction related nuisances to APs, households or public; (ii) resolve issues on land acquisition (if any), compensation to temporary damages to crops, orchards, trees and other use of land such as temporary / permanent areas for distribution towers / poles and ROW; (iii) convene once a month to review complaints lodged (if any); (iv) record the grievances and resolve the issues within the stipulated time from the date the grievance was filed; and (v) report to the APs, households and public upon the status of grievance resolution and the decisions made or action taken. All contractors including contractor appointed GRM focal point persons ( C-EHS / C-GRM) and work staff will be briefed by the PIC on project GRM. 32. Procedures. The key contacts for the GRC will be included in the PIB for dissemination in the project area of influence and also posted at project field construction sites, field offices, construction (workers) camps and public notice boards in affected villages and townships in Burmese language. There are multiple entry points to the project GRM, including face-to-face meetings, written complaints, contractor information, anonymous drop-boxes for written comments, and/or e-mail. All concerns received will be treated confidentially and professionally. The identity of individuals will not be circulated among project agencies or staff and will only be shared with senior staff and then only when there is clear justification. The GRM will consist of the following steps of conflict resolution:
-
10
Step 1
33. At field level, the contractor can act as an entry point, where an AP / complainant can be presented to the contractor either verbally in person or in writing.10 The AP can also approach the contractor through the local GAD office or the village leader. The contractor will be obliged to provide immediate written receipt of the complaint and take it forward in a written format and share with the GRC at PIU level for record. The contractor assisted by PIC will resolve the issue with the AP / complainant within seven (7) days through direct negotiation, maintain the record of grievances received and redressed.
Step 2
34. If or when the AP / complainant is not satisfied with the action or decision of the contractor, the AP / complainant will take the issue to GRC at PIU level. In all cases, the grievances will be recorded in writing. The GRC at PIU level will have two (2) weeks to resolve the complaint through a hearing and negotiation and will be assisted by the PIC. If the issue is not handled within two (2) weeks, or if the complainant is not satisfied with the result, he/she can bring the issue to the GRC at PMU level. Note: the GRC at PIU level may forward or accelerate the case to GRC at PMU level if it cannot be redressed at GRC PIU level. The grievance redress process at GRC at PIU level is as follows:
o GRC at PIU level will review the filed complaint and prepare a Case File for GRC hearing and negotiation
o A formal GRC hearing will be held at a mutually agreeable date between GRC members and AP / complainant or representative
o On the date of the hearing, the AP / complainant or representative will appear to air the issue/ grievance / complainant
o All proceedings shall be recorded and documented o Final resolution issued by GRC at PIU level will be communicated to the AP /
complainant / representative Step 3 35. If the issue/complaint cannot be resolved in a way that is satisfactory to all parties, the GRC at PIU level will bring the issue to the GRC a PMU level. The GRC at PMU level will meet the AP / complainant / representative of AP and try to resolve the issue/ grievance. Within four (4) weeks of the submission of the complaint to the GRC, it has to take a decision and inform in written to the AP / complainant / representative of AP, GRC at PIU level of the decision. Step 4 36. If efforts to resolve disputes using the grievance procedures remain unresolved or unsatisfactory, AP / complainant have the right to directly discuss their concerns or problems with the ADB’s Environment, Natural Resources and Agriculture Division, Southeast Asia Department through the ADB Myanmar Resident Mission. If AP / complainant is still not satisfied with the responses of the Resident Mission, they can directly contact the ADB Office of the Special Project Facilitator. The Office of the Special Project Facilitator procedure can proceed based on the accountability mechanism11 in parallel with the project implementation.
10 If APs do not have sufficient writing skills or are unable to express their grievances verbally, it is a common practice that they are allowed to seek assistance from any recognized local NGO or other family members, village heads or community chiefs to have their complaints or grievances written for them. APs will be allowed to have access to the detail measurement survey or contract document to ensure that all the details have been recorded accurately enabling all parties to be treated fairly. Throughout the grievance redress process, the responsible GRC will ensure that the concerned APs are provided with copies of complaints and decisions or resolutions reached. 11 Weblink: https://www.adb.org/site/accountability-mechanism/main
-
11
37. Access to Country Legal System: The AP / complainant will avail the right to approach the judiciary or Courts directly if they like, without approaching the GRC.
38. GRC Recordkeeping and Reporting. The GRC at PMU level and PIU level will keep a record of all the grievances received including contact details of complainant, date the complaint was received, nature of grievance, agreed corrective actions, the date these were affected and the final outcome. Documentation of the grievances filed and resolved will be summarized, submitted to the PMU and reported in the project Quarterly Progress Reports (QPRs) and semi-annual safeguard reports during construction stage.
39. Disclosure of Information. Under the direction of the PMU, the PIUs with assistance from PIC will disseminate PIBs and also inform APs / complainants / representative of APs on grievance redress procedure, who to contact and when, where and how to file a grievance, time likely to be taken for redressal of minor and major grievances, etc. It will be made known that AP/ complainants are not charged any fee under project GRM. It is a good practice to provide the APs / complainants / representative of AP with transport facilities to the GRC hearings. Grievances received and responses provided will be documented and provided to APs / complainants / representative of APs during the process. The number of grievances recorded and resolved and the outcomes will be displayed/disclosed in the project construction field offices, GAD, township offices (if required).
40. Review of the Process. The PMU will periodically review the implementation of the project GRM and record information on the effectiveness of the mechanism, especially on the project‘s ability to prevent and address grievances. 41. Moreover, ADB safeguards indicators include assessment of whether the project GRM is functioning effectively, indicators of a functioning GRM, include:
PMU provided a formal letter that confirms that the GRM has been established and is operational with a list of GRC committee members at each level including PMU and PIU focal point persons for GRM
The PIB has the GRM steps explained and GRM focal point person contact information and has been handed out to all APs, households and available at local GAD offices
Evidence of consultation/verbal dissemination of the project GRM to APs, households and public consultation (This could be shown through presentation materials, minutes of meetings, photos and attendance sheet)
Evidence of project signage within the community and at construction sites / camps with GRM focal point person contact information
GRM focal point persons mobilized and functioning in their role GRM record-keeping system is established and functioning Complaints and resolutions included in project QPR and semi-annual safeguards
monitoring reports. H. Mechanisms for Feedback and Adjustment 42. The EMP is a living document. The need to update and adjust the EMP will be reviewed during final project detailed engineering design or when there are design changes, changes in construction methods and program, unfavorable safeguards /environmental monitoring results or
-

inappropriate monitoring locations and ineffective or inadequate mitigation measures. Based on safeguards /environmental monitoring and reporting systems in place, the PMU (with the support of the PIUs and PIC) shall assess whether further mitigation measures are required as corrective action or improvement in environmental management practices are required. The PMU will inform ADB promptly on any changes to the project and needed adjustments to the EMP. The updated EMP will be submitted to ADB for review and approval and will be disclosed on the ADB project website. I. Cost Estimates 43. There are three types of mitigation measures and corresponding costs:
i. Measures that will permanently become part of the infrastructure such as permanent sanitary facilities, permanent (‘bunded’) impermeable surfaces, septic tanks, features for adverse environmental impact mitigation, climate risks, landscaping, hedge planting, permanent access roads to substation plots, road signage, perimeter fencing, detailed engineering measures for preventing soil erosion and/or localized flooding/ wildfires will be included in the main civil work contract costs and not double counted as part of EMP costs, estimated as USD$ 27.6 million or 16.8% of the total base cost.12
ii. Measures such as conducting environmental baseline surveys for surface water quality air quality and noise, developing SEMPs/SOMPs, training, EHS audit can be counted as part of the environmental (and social) impact mitigation; the total estimate is US$1.00 million or 1% of total project base cost. The indicative cost estimates are provided below.
iii. Measures during the construction stage (e.g., periodic watering for dust suppression, use of hand held portable air and noise monitoring devices, EMF measuring devices, quiet / low noise machinery and equipment, PPE, etc.) as well as measures to mitigate unforeseen impacts due to construction activities will need to be included in the tender documents to ensure that all contractors budget these items in their bids. Contractors will also bear all environmental monitoring costs during the operational stage.
iv. Information disclosure, developing PIB, project GRM related costs involved in resolving the complaints (meetings, consultations, communication and reporting/information dissemination) will be borne by the ESE.
v. Human resources for EMP support are part of the Project Implementation Consultation Services (PIC); the total estimate is US$6.99 million or 5% of total project base cost.
12 Source: Project Administration Manual, June 2020. The total project base cost is US $ 165.29 million; subject to change.
