Screening Questions Yes No Remarks

A. PROJECT SITING IS THE PROJECT AREA ADJACENT TO OR WITHIN ANY OF THE FOLLOWING ENVIRONMENTALLY SENSITIVE AREAS?

Cultural heritage site

X No cultural heritage site is located within the road ROW or vicinity.

Protected Area X None of the project road is inside or adjacent to any notified protected area. However, eleven Road have found open forest patches are present in few stretches along project roads.

Wetland X None.

Mangrove X None

Estuarine X None

Buffer zone of protected area X None

Special area for protecting biodiversity

X No special biodiversity area is located within the project area.

B. POTENTIAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS

WILL THE PROJECT CAUSE…

encroachment on historical/cultural areas; disfiguration of landscape by road embankments, cuts, fills, and quarries?

X No encroachment of historical places. However, some religious structures exist along the project road which may get partially impacted. Disfiguration of landscape is not envisaged since it is expansion/reconstruction of existing roads without any new bypass hence involving large scale cut and fills. Quarry material will be procured from existing licensed quarries. Opening and operation of new quarry, if needed will follow consent conditions of Pollution Control Board.

encroachment on precious ecology (e.g. sensitive or protected areas)?

X No National Parks, wildlife sanctuaries or similar eco-sensitive areas along the project road

India / Madhya Pradesh District Roads II Sector Project (23 Road Sections)

Appendix 1 163


alteration of surface water hydrology of waterways crossed by roads, resulting in increased sediment in streams affected by increased soil erosion at construction site?

X Project area is drained by a No. of rivers/Nallah and also intersecting the project roads. Bridge construction on perennial rivers will be done during lean flow period. In some cases minor channels may be diverted for a very short period and will be bring back to its original course immediately after construction. Partial loss of some ponds is also envisaged. Large numbers of borrow areas are proposed to be converted into ponds. Adequate measures like retaining walls/breast walls have been proposed to avoid/reduce siltation in the water bodies/ponds close to the alignment.

deterioration of surface water quality due to silt runoff and sanitary wastes from worker-based camps and chemicals used in construction?

X Adequate sanitary facilities and drainage in the workers camps will help to avoid this possibility. as the construction activity in this project will not contain any harmful ingredients, no impact on surface water quality is anticipated.

increased local air pollution due to rock crushing, cutting and filling works, and chemicals from asphalt processing?

X Air pollution level is likely to be increased for short duration during construction period. Appropriate distance from settlement area and wind direction may be taken into account to locate air polluting facility like stone crushing unit etc. use of environment friendly equipments/machineries will help to reduce air pollution.

risks and vulnerabilities related to occupational health and safety due to physical, chemical, biological, and radiological hazards during project construction and operation during project construction and operation?

X Workers may get exposed to dust and noise during construction activities. However the exposure levels are likely to be short and insignificant. Workers will be provided requisite PPEs to minimise such exposure and associated harmful occupational health effects. Traffic on roads is expected to be low and as such, no occupational health hazard is anticipated during operation phase.

noise and vibration due to blasting and other civil works?

X Blasting is not involved. Ambient noise level is expected to increase in the range of 80-90 db (a) due to various construction activities, maintenance workshops, and earthmoving equipment. Although this level of noise exceeds national standards, their occurrence will be intermittent and co-terminus with the project construction.All stationary noise making equipment will be installed with acoustic enclosures. Timings of noise construction activities will be regulated near sensitive receptors. Multi-layered plantation proposed.

dislocation or involuntary resettlement of people?

X Extent of impact being assessed

dislocation and compulsory resettlement of people living in right-of-way?


164 Appendix 1


disproportionate impacts on the poor, women and children, Indigenous Peoples or other vulnerable groups?


other social concerns relating to inconveniences in living conditions in the project areas that may trigger cases of upper respiratory problems and stress?

X Deterioration in ambient air quality will be localized and temporarily during construction activity. The project area is largely located in open areas except some air pollution units at Maharajpur and Gagha urban area. Extensive plantation along the highway and improved road conditions will improve the air quality of the area.

hazardous driving conditions where construction interferes with pre-existing roads?

X Suitable traffic management plan will be designed and implemented by the contractor to prevent any hazardous driving condition in above situations.

poor sanitation and solid waste disposal in construction camps and work sites, and possible transmission of communicable diseases (such as STI's and HIV/AIDS) from workers to local populations?

X Proper provisions for sanitation, health care and solid waste disposal facilities will be available in the contract documents to avoid such possibility. workers will be made aware about communicable diseases

creation of temporary breeding habitats for diseases such as those transmitted by mosquitoes and rodents?

X No such condition is anticipated. Most of borrow areas are likely to be converted into ponds. Fish culture will be promoted in these ponds which will naturally restrict mosquito breeding.

accident risks associated with increased vehicular traffic, leading to accidental spills of toxic materials?

X Adequate safety measures will be adopted to avoid such conditions.

increased noise and air pollution resulting from traffic volume?

X Increase in noise and air pollution is expected during construction phase. Adequate mitigation measures will be adopted to minimise them.During operation phase, the main source of noise and air will be traffic. Improved road conditions, extensive plantation will help reduce the noise and air impact. Moreover, the alignment mostly passes through open agricultural land which will provide adequate dispersion of gaseous emission.If measures suggested for noise sensitive receptors prove inadequate, solid noise barrier will be placed.

increased risk of water pollution from oil, grease and fuel spills, and other materials from vehicles using the road?

X This is expected from accidental spillage. Adequate safety provisions have been proposed to avoid such situation.

social conflicts if workers from other regions or countries are hired?

X Most of the workers will be from local areas and hence such conflict is not anticipated.

Appendix 1 165


large population influx during project construction and operation that causes increased burden on social infrastructure and services (such as water supply and sanitation systems)?

X Workers will be mostly from local villages. Worker from remote places will be provided with adequate facility. The ratio of local and outside workers will be such balanced that there is minimum burden on existing social infrastructures and services.

risks to community health and safety due to the transport, storage, and use and/or disposal of materials such as explosives, fuel and other chemicals during construction and operation?

X IEE will outline such anticipated risks and recommend necessary mitigative measures to avoid them.

community safety risks due to both accidental and natural causes, especially where the structural elements or components of the project are accessible to members of the affected community or where their failure could result in injury to the community throughout project construction, operation and decommissioning.

X Adequate measures have been adopted to mitigate such risks. Adequate awareness will be created amongst people and workers through information disclosure, safety signage and public consultation about safety aspects.

Climate Change and Disaster Risk Questions

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

X Project area is located in moderate damage risk zone w.r.t seismicity (Zone III). All civil structures have been designed as per relevant IS Codes corresponding to seismic zones. The study area being predominantly rolling does not have flood problem. However, flash floods occurred sometime in district including some parts of project. All structure have been designed for 50 yr return period with anticipated risk of rarer flood generally of next higher frequency i.e. 100 yr return period flood on the designed structure. Project Area is not vulnerable to landslides, tropical cyclone winds, storm surges, tsunami or volcanic eruptions. However, Many studies for the state show that the Madhya Pradesh is tending towards precarious situation due to climate sensitivity and vulnerability, combined with low adaptive capacity. The state is already suffering due to its high dependence on mineral resources. Further the forest and water resources in the State are facing threat due to industrial and urban growth and being uneven in distribution both temporally and spatially. Hence the challenge of climate change calls for appropriate, evidence based and coherent policy response, followed by the adequate action that can help reduce its vulnerability and build resilience of the various sectors of the state in the context of climate change impacts. (Source: Madhya Pradesh- Action Plan for Climate Change, Govt. of Madhya Pradesh, 2013)

166 Appendix 1

Could changes in temperature, precipitation, or extreme events patterns over the Project lifespan affect technical or financial sustainability (eg. increased erosion or landslides could increase maintenance costs, permafrost melting or increased soil moisture content could affect sub-grade).

X All provisions as per IRC codes and international best practices have been made in the road design to avoid erosion and damage to sub grade based on historical climatic data.

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

X Increase in marginalization is not envisaged. High rate of urbanization is witnessed and it has outpaced the population growth trend in the state due to migration from rural to urban centers. During 2001-2011, the urban population expanded by 18.22%, this is in line with the decadal national urban population growth rate of 31.8% (Census of India 2011). However, migration in the project area is comparatively low due to proximity to industrial township ofMandla

Could the Project potentially increase the climate or disaster vulnerability of the surrounding area (e.g., by encouraging settlement in areas that will be more affected by floods in the future, or encouraging settlement in earthquake zones)?

X Displaced persons will be resettled at nearby places which are in moderate earthquake and no flood zone.

Appendix 3: Comparison of World Bank and GoI Ambient Air Quality Standards

A comparison between the ambient air quality requirements between the World Bank (WB) Environment, Health and Safety (EHS) guidelines and the National Ambient Air Quality standards (NAAQS) under the Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1981 of GOI as given in table below shows that the NAAQS has requirements on three more parameters (Pb, Co and NH3) in comparison to the WB EHS. The NAAQS has differentiated standards for two types of areas: i) industrial, residential, rural and other areas and ii) ecologically sensitive areas. The WB EHS has guidelines values which are the required standards but allows for gradual compliance to the guideline values through staged interim targets. Most WB EHS guideline requirements are more stringent than NAAQS except for the NOx one year average in ecologically sensitive areas where the NAAQS requirements are more stringent.

Appendix 9: Guidelines for Tree Plantation and Management

Preparation of the Plantation Area: For plantation in new areas it always economical and comfortable to plant trees in blocks. The open areas near the subproject roads will be identified and selected. During the selection of the block plantation sites, the availability of the water in nearby areas will be taken into consideration as the survival of the tree saplings depends on the availability of water or watering facilities.

Preparation of Pits and Sapling Transplantation: The location of each plantation pit will be marked according to the design and distance of the plantation. The size of the plantation pit varies depending upon the species of the plants, height of the saplings. Trees will be planted on the alternate rows in a straight line for the prevention of the horizontal dispersion of the pollutants. Hence the pit will be dig accordingly. During the time of placing the tree saplings the roots will be freed from plastic or any type of cover which is normally use for the transplantation of the tree saplings from the seed bed to the tree plantation pits. This exercise will help the root hairs to reach the soil.

Spacing: For the survivability of the tree species planted spacing between the saplings should be maintained. Spacing which are usually used for teak planting are 2 x 2 m2, 3 x 1 m2, 3 x 3 m2, 4 x 2 m2 and 4 x 4 m2, depending on site condition. However, wider spacing of 6 x 1 m2 can also be adopted sometimes where the survivability is high. Closer spacing is used for straight timber of good quality.

Time of Plantation: As per the normal practices followed under the silvicultural guidelines plantation of the tree sapling to be done only after the first shower during the rainy season. The best time for plantation is after 15 days from the day of first shower during rainy season.

Protection of Tree saplings: Circular tree guard should be placed after the plantation of the saplings for the protection of these young plants from the ravages of cattle, sheep and goat and other animals. If tree saplings died or damage occur after placing the circular tree guard, timely replacements of damaged plant and thereafter care is important.

Selection of Tree Species: The selection of the tree species to be planted plays a crucial role for higher survivability rate. This is always better to choose the local and Vulnerable, endemic species.

Maintenance (include thinning) : Weeding: Low pruning at 6 months, Thinning: Thinning will start after the stand is 3-4 years old and repeated every 4 years until the stand is 15 years old. Between 15-25 years old, thinning should be conducted every 5 years and after 25 years old, thinning will be done after every 10 years. When the canopy closes, at about 6 years, 30-40% of the stems will be thinned to selectively remove suppressed, diseased and badly formed trees.

Survivability: Periodic assessment will be carried for survivability of the trees. Minimum

70% survival rate will be achieved.

Records: The following records will be maintained: 1. Record of Tree plantation 2. Record of Survivability rate

Reporting: The tree plantation and survivability report will be sent to EA six monthly

Appendix 9 375

Responsibility: Prime Responsibility: PIU through contractor or Forest Department Contractor will be responsible for tree cutting or plantation Supervisory Responsibility: Supervision Consultant to check compliance of above guidelines.

376 Appendix 10

Appendix 10: Guidelines for Borrow Area Management

Selection and Rehabilitation of Borrow Pits: Guidelines for selection of borrow pits, amount that can be borrowed and its rehabilitation in line with The Indian Road Congress (IRC):10-1961 will be followed and are as follows:

Contractor must identify the borrow areas before start of construction and submit these details with rehabilitation plan.

Borrow areas will not be located on cultivable lands. However, if it becomes necessary to borrow earth from temporarily acquired cultivated lands, their depth will not exceed 45 cm. The topsoil to a depth of 15cm will be stripped and set aside. Thereafter, soil may be dug out to a further depth not exceeding 30 cm and used in forming the embankment.

A 15 cm topsoil will be stripped off from the borrow pit and this will be stored in stockpiles in a designated area for height not exceeding 2m and side slopes not steeper than 1:2 (Vertical: Horizontal).

Ridges of not less than 8m widths will be left at intervals not exceeding 300m. Small drains will be cut through the ridges, if necessary, to facilitate drainage. The slope of the edges will be maintained not steeper than 1:4 (vertical: Horizontal).

Borrow pit will be selected from wasteland ;

Priority will be given to the borrowing from humps above the general ground level within the road land;

Priority will be given to the borrowing by excavating/enlarging existing tanks;

Borrowing will be from land acquired temporarily and located at least 500m away from the road;

Borrowing will be from mounds resulting from the digging of well and lowering of agricultural fields in vicinity of the road;

Borrow area near to any surface water body will be at least at a distance of 15m from the toe of the bank or high flood level, whichever is maximum.

In case of settlements, borrow pits will not be selected within a distance 800 m from towns or villages. If unavoidable, earth excavation will not exceed 30cm in depth;

The haulage distance from site will not be too far.

Redevelopment plan will be prepared by the contractor before the start of work which should be duly agreed upon by land owner.

Borrow pits will be backfilled with rejected construction wastes and covered with vegetation.

Borrow areas might be used for aquaculture in case landowner wants such development.

Borrow pits located near habitat areas will be re-developed immediately after borrowing is completed. If spoils are dumped, that will be covered with a layers of stockpiled topsoil in accordance with compliance requirements with respect MOEFCC/SPCB guidelines.

Prohibit dumping of waste except inert construction rubble

Records: The following records will be maintained: 1. List of Borrow areas identification with capacity and rehabilitation plan 2. Agreement with land owners where applicable 3. Details of Earth excavated 4. Closure report of rehabilitated borrow pits.

Reporting: The Borrow area opening, earth borrowed and borrow area rehabilitation details will form part of half yearly report

(i) The debris disposal site should be identified which are preferably barren or low-lying areas away from settlements.

(ii) Prior concurrence will be taken from concerned Govt. Authorities or land owner

(iii) Due care should be taken during site clearance and disposal of debris so that public/ private properties are not damage or effected, no traffic are interrupted.

(iv) All efforts should be made to use debris in road construction or any other public utilities.

(v) The debris should be stored at site ensuring that existing water bodies and drains within or adjacent to the site are kept safe and free and no blocking of drains occurs.

(vi) All dust prone material should be transported in a covered truck. (vii) All liquid waste like oils and paint waste should be stored at identified

locations and preferably on a cemented floor. Provision of spill collection pit will be made in the floor to collect the spilled oil or paint. These should be sold off to authorized recyclers.

(viii) All domestic waste generated at construction camp preferably be composted in portable mechanized composter. The composted material will be used as manure. In case composting is not feasible, the material will either be disposed off though municipal waste disposal system or disposed of through land burial. The dump site must be covered up with at least six inch thick layer of soil.

(ix) Only appropriately design and compliant landfills will be used for disposing waste

(x) All efforts should be made that no chemical/ oily waste spill over to ground or water bodies.

(xi) All precautions should be followed for emergency preparedness and occupational health & safety during construction and handling a waste.

(xii) Provision of fire extinguishers will be made at the storage area (xiii) Adequate traffic control signals and barriers should be used in case traffic is

to be diverted during debris disposal. All efforts should be made to ensure avoidance of traffic jam, which otherwise results in air pollution, noise pollution and public unrest.

Appendix 14: Impacts of Climate Change on Road Transport in the State of Madhya Pradesh

1. Introduction

In general, transport can be vulnerable to many different types of weather conditions, of which, some of them could be exacerbated with climate change. Many of them relate to extreme weather conditions (e.g. storms, extreme precipitations, extreme temperatures) which on their turn may result in severe consequences for the physical environment (e.g. floods, landslides,…) and represent risks for transport infrastructures and operations.

Depending on future global warming and the region of Madhya Pradesh in India, transport modes and system components could be affected by one or several simultaneous changes in climate conditions, including hotter summers, extreme precipitation events and increased storminess. If such impacts are not anticipated in future transport infrastructure design and maintenance, those changing weather conditions could, in some regions, accelerate their deterioration, increase severe damages risks, traffic interruption and accidents which could, on their turn, affect economic activities.

Districts in Madhya Pradesh are identified as being amongst the highest in India in terms of social vulnerability in a study which examined exposure to the effects of climate change and economic globalization19. Natural calamities like drought, floods and hailstorms are a common feature for the state. Almost every year one or other part of the state is generally hot. The MP State of Environment report has analyzed the natural disasters in the state (mainly drought, floods and heat waves).

2. Literature Review on Climate Variability over Madhya Pradesh

2.1 Madhya Pradesh State Action Plan on Climate Change (MP SAPCC)20 This draft version of the State Action Plan on Climate Change (MP SAPCC), developed by the Government of Madhya Pradesh (GoMP), aims to address the regional concerns and to outline strategies required to develop a climate resilient state. The strategies and recommendations of the MPSAPCC intend in due course, to strengthen the developmental planning process of the state with policy level interventions favoring low carbon growth. Chapter 4 of draft MP SAPCC report, on observed climate trends and projected climate change, mentions Madhya Pradesh to have a subtropical climate with three distinct seasons, viz. winter from December to February followed by summer season from March to May and rainy season extending from June to October. During winters the mean temperature remains around 100C and mean maximum temperature remains 250C and the minimum temperature goes down to 10C in some regions. During summers, the mean minimum temperature is 220C and mean maximum is 380C. The maximum temperature during summer can go up to 480C, especially in May and June which are the hottest months. The average annual rainfall for the state is 1160 mm. Rainfall is heaviest in the south-eastern parts of the state and it decreases as one move towards the north-west. Balaghat in the south receives the maximum rains; where average rainfall is above 1600 mm. The other southern districts of Mandla, Dindori and Anuppur receive between 1200-1400 mm of rain. The rainfall drops to the 1000-1200 mm as one move further north and west. Western districts in MP including most of those in the Malwa plateau and Sheopur and Shivpuri in the north receives

800-1000 mm of rain. Average annual rainfall is below 800 mm in the south-western tip of the state, including southern half of Jhabua and western half of Barwani district. The rainfall is below 800 mm in the districts lying in the north most part of the state including Morena, Datia, Gwalior and Bhind. Most of the rainfall in the state is received from the south-west monsoon during June to September Trends of average annual monsoon rain fall analyzed for the period 1961 to 2002 show an inter-annual variability of average monsoon rain fall in the 41 year period, and the rain fall trend is seen to be decreasing as deciphered from the negative slope of the equation representing the linear trends. Further a study carried out by Goswami et al (2006)21, for observations spanning 50 years in the Central Indian region including Madhya Pradesh, indicates that the extreme precipitation events which are above 100 mm are increasing in terms of their intensity and frequency, with low and moderate events becoming more and more infrequent. 2.2 Climate Projections – MP SAPCC draft report The MP SAPCC draft report provides climate projections for 2030s (2021-2050) and 2080s (2071-2098) that have been derived from PRECIS (Providing Regional Climate for Impact Studies), which is a desktop version of the HadRM3 model with a grid resolution of 0.44° x 0.44°. PRECIS simulation dataset was provided by the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology, Pune. The climate change scenarios were driven by the GHG emission scenarios - A1B which assumes a future world of very rapid economic growth, a global population that peaks in mid-century and declines thereafter, and assumes rapid introduction of new and more efficient technologies. Change in precipitation and temperature in 2030s and end of the century 2080s have been derived with respect to 1970s (1961-1990). 2.2.1 Temperature The average surface daily maximum temperatures, in the period 2030s is projected to rise by 1.8-2.0oC throughout Madhya Pradesh and the daily minimum temperature is projected to rise between 2.0oC to 2.4oC during the same period; the eastern half of the state experiencing more warming than the western half. By 2080s, the maximum temperature is projected to rise between 3.4oC to 4.4oC with northern region experiencing warmer temperatures. 2.2.2 Rainfall Projections of rainfall in Madhya Pradesh for the period 2021 to 2050 indicate that there is likely to be decrease in winter rainfall as one move from eastern part of MP to western part of MP. In pre-monsoon period, the rainfall is increasing only in the Southern part of MP, with decrease in rain fall in all other parts. In the Monsoon period, there is a slight increase in rainfall all over MP (the increase being 1.25 times the rainfall observed in the current climate), and with no change in the Morena, Shivpuri, Bhind, and Gwalior areas. During post monsoon period, slowly again the western end of MP is likely to face decrease in rain fall, with no change or little increase in rainfall in most other parts of the state. In 2100 there is an overall increase in rain fall with southern states likely to receive more rain fall in the northern states. The increase in rain fall during the post monsoon and pre monsoon periods are projected to be more than the increase in rain falls projected for the monsoon period. Table 1 summarizes the projected changes in climate parameters as derived from PRECIS.

More than 1.35 times increase in precipitation with respect to observed climate in most parts of Madhya Pradesh. With major parts of Hoshangabad and Damoh, Manldla and northern parts of Balaghat will experience rain in excess of 1.45 times the observed climate now. The extreme northern and western part of the state will also experience excess rainfall but less than most of the other areas

2.3 Chapter V - Anticipated Environmental Impacts and Mitigation Measures22 (Section D of Chapter V on “Climate Risks and Adaptation needs” is reproduced here as under) Climate risks were identified following both top down and bottom up approaches. Under the top down approach changes of key climate parameters, mainly temperature and precipitation were projected for 2050 using an ensemble of Global Climate Models (GCMs). Given the projected variations of temperature and precipitation the project roads were screened for 9 types of climate risks:

a. Landslide triggered by increased precipitation b. Fire c. Flood d. Drought e. Tsunami f. Cyclone wind g. Cyclone surge h. Sea level rise i. Coastal erosion

Climate risk maps based on information from the GCMs were created for the project area using Geographic Information System (GIS) maps. After overlaying the road locations on the climate risk maps low to medium risks identified for the project roads were flooding, landslides triggered by precipitation, coastal erosion and tsunami. The overall climate change risk level identified from the above exercise is low. The key risk identified is flooding (increased storminess). Bridges and road embankments are the main project components that will be prone to flooding. Increase in temperature may also affect road safety. Under the bottom up approach the flood prone areas in the project road were identified based on field surveys for the engineering design. Key engineering measures taken to address the risk of flooding in the design are: increase in road embankment height in flood prone areas/sections, improvement and provision of lined longitudinal and cross drains and new culverts, improvement and new construction of minor and

major bridges. Bridge heights have been designed to have a height of 0.6m above HFL for minor bridges and 0.9m above HFL for major bridges. Flood return period of 50 years for minor bridges and 100 years for major bridges have been considered. 3. Climate Change Effects on Indian Roads

Conventionally, roads and highways are designed based on historic climate, however during their design life they could well be subjected to a very different climate. The vulnerability of highways to climate change would depend on factors such as pavement type and condition and also on location-specific factors such as geology, traffic flow, and proximity to water courses. Climate change induced deterioration will create more severe damage through increased frequency of extreme events and will necessitate more routine and structural maintenance. The cost of not taking climate change into consideration could be vast in terms of traffic disruption, public safety and infrastructure repairs.

3.1 Extreme High Temperature

The state of Madhya Pradesh is no stranger to heat extremes and heat waves. Under climate change scenario, heat extremes and heat waves are likely to become more intense, longer lasting, and more frequent during this century. Increasing periods of extreme heat will place additional stress on infrastructure, reducing service life and increasing maintenance needs. Extreme maximum temperature and prolonged duration heat waves are expected to lead to premature deterioration of infrastructure. Temperature increases have the potential to affect and reduce the life of asphalt road pavements through softening and traffic-related rutting. Extreme heat can also stress the steel in bridges through thermal expansion and movement of bridge joints and paved surfaces.

Highway pavements historically have been constructed from a combination of locally available natural materials, including natural soils, select soils such as natural gravel, and processed material such as quarried stone. Pavements are constructed in layers with the weaker or least durable materials at the bottom and the stronger or most durable materials at the top. The top layers are normally bound together with some sort of binder. Commonly used binders include hydraulic cements and bituminous cements. The most widely used binder in India is asphalt, a bituminous cement which is a petroleum product refined from crude oil. What makes asphalt desirable for pavement construction is its tendency to stick to the granular material used in the upper pavement layers and thus to keep this material in place. In addition, when asphalt is heated, it becomes very fluid and can be mixed with gravel or rock, making it an easy material to process in the mass quantities required for pavement construction.

4. Extreme Value Analysis (EVA)

The following abridged paragraphs as adopted from a WMO 23 publication highlights the rationale for focusing on weather and climate extremes. Changes in extreme weather and climate events are now recognized to have significant impacts and are among the most serious challenges to society in coping with a changing climate. Many practical problems require knowledge of the behavior of extreme values. In particular, the infrastructures we depend upon for food, water, energy, shelter and transportation are sensitive to high or low values of meteorological variables. For example, high precipitation amounts and resulting stream flows affect sewerage systems, dams, reservoirs and bridges. The motivation for analyzing extremes is often to find an optimum balance between adopting high safety standards that are very costly on the one hand, and preventing major damage to equipment and structures from extreme events that are likely to occur during the useful life of such infrastructure on the other hand.

390 Appendix 14

Most existing systems for water management and other infrastructure have been designed under the assumption that climate is stationary. This basic concept from which engineers work assumes that climate is variable, but with variations whose properties are constant with time, and which occur around an unchanging mean state. This assumption of stationarity is still common practice for design criteria for (the safety of) new infrastructure, even though the notion that climate change may alter the mean, variability and extremes of relevant weather variables is now widely accepted. New infrastructure is typically designed on the basis of historical information on weather and climate extremes. Often, the maximum value of a particular variable in the historical record is considered to be the normative value for design. In other cases, extreme value theory is applied to the historical observations of extremes to estimate the normative value, again disregarding climate change. The report states that it is possible to account for non-stationary conditions (climate change) in extreme value analysis, but scientists are still debating the best way to do this. Nevertheless, adaptation strategies to climate change should now begin to account for the decadal scale changes (or low-frequency variability) in extremes observed in the past decades, as well as projections of future changes in extremes such as are obtained from climate models. 4.1 Data Establishment A March 2013 draft EIA report24 for a proposed nuclear power plant to be located at Chutka, Mandla25 district of Madhya Pradesh, devotes a whole chapter on extreme value analysis of meteorological parameters. In gist, the general principles behind their EVA analysis for temperature and precipitation extremes, lies in the common practice of assumption of stationarity for deriving design criteria of the proposed nuclear power plant. Raw data on annual maximum and annual minimum temperatures (Table 4.1, Figure 4.1), and 1-hourly and 24-hourly precipitation maximum (Table 4.2, Figure 4.2) as recorded by the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) weather station based at Mandla, Madhya Pradesh are extracted from the nuclear plant EIA report for non-stationarity analysis as recommended by WMO under a changing climate.

By the WMO guideline (WCDMP- No. 72), a pragmatic approach is to calculate trends for any specified period regardless of cause. Trends are the simplest component of climate change and provide information on the first-order changes over the time domain considered. This implies that the physical mechanisms behind the detected trends remain unknown. The calculated trends represent changes that can be due to natural internal processes within the climate system and/or external forcing, which can either be natural, such as solar irradiance and volcanic aerosols, or anthropogenic, such as greenhouse gases. Note that there are data gaps in both temperature and in the annual daily maximum precipitation data and a trend analysis would be highly ambiguous

Of particular concern in the expansion and improvement of district roads in Madhya Pradesh, stresses induced on roadways by intense high temperatures and high intensity and high frequency precipitation as a result of warming climate need to be addressed as far best as possible. Such extreme weather conditions exacerbated under future climate change is widely recognized now, and if neglected in the very initial design of transport infrastructure, could lead to increasing risks thus negatively affecting transport performance in terms of safety, reliability, cost efficiency. Though the level of deterioration of roadways depends on a multiplicity of parameters, e.g. locations, soil, traffic load, etc., besides intense temperature and precipitation it is practically not possible to portray and specify plausible illumination covering the entire network of roadways. The next section (Sec. 4.2) attempts a benign uncovering of magnitudes of extremes in maximum temperature and precipitation that could lead the infrastructure designer to a more climate change focused consideration.

Extreme value statistics are used primarily to quantify the stochastic behavior of a process at unusually large (or small) values. Particularly, such analyses usually require estimation of the probability of events that are more extreme than any previously observed. Many fields have begun to use extreme value theory and some have been using it for a very long time including meteorology, hydrology, finance and ocean wave modeling to name just a few. The block maxima series (BMS) is one generally used method based on an explicit extreme value theory. In this method, one considers the sample of extreme values obtained by selecting the maximum (or in some cases, the minimum) value observed in each block. Blocks are typically one year in length (365 daily observations per block), or occasionally a season in length (for example, the summer maximum temperature, or winter minimum temperature). Statistical theory indicates that the Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) distribution is appropriate for the block maxima when blocks are sufficiently large. In its general form, the GEV distribution has three parameters: location μ, scale σ, and shape ξ. Parameters can be estimated by the method of maximum likelihood, the method of L-moments (also referred to as probability weighted moments), or simply the ordinary method of moments. The maximum likelihood approach is preferred when samples of extremes are sufficiently large and when there is a possibility that the climate may not be stationary. Extremes toolkit is a weather and climate applications of extreme value statistics developed by National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR, US) which can be downloaded at website: http://www.esig.ucar.edu/extremevalues/evtk.html Simulation is an approach when uncertainty is high due to sparse data and advantageously the toolkit takes care of that and projects the parameters for each simulation run. The parameter estimations of GEV simulated for the annual highest maximum temperature at Mandla are run using “extRemes Toolkit Ver1.6, R Ver2.9.2”. (Kindly note that raw data for temperature and precipitation for 33 years with obvious data gaps as depicted in Tables 4.1 and 4.2 above, were extracted from IMD’s meteorological station at Mandla, Madhya Pradesh, as annexed in the cited Technical Report No. 4811, footnoted 4 in page 7 of this assessment report). Although a disclaimer stating the above cited technical report as the property of National Power Corporation of India Limited (NPCIL) with all rights reserved, this report just took the liberty to glean the raw data as they had for this climate change extreme value analysis. None of their outputs are reproduced here. The simulated GEV parameters for a stationarity case (or the conventional approach where no trend exists) and followed by another simulation assuming a shift in the location parameter (μ) by a conservative annual increment of 0.030C/year to fairly represent a warming climate within a century has been run through the “extRemes” program and are reproduced as self-explanatory and as screenshots in the following boxes 4.1 and 4.2.

Appendix 14 393

The above simulated outputs indicate that Gumbel distribution cannot be rejected based on maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) test. This assessment now takes advantage of the Gumbel distribution to evaluate the highest maximum temperature at Mandla station and compares outputs of the conventional stationarity and the trend induced non-stationarity and computes return period versus return levels derived from the simulated data. See Figure 4.3 Thus following Gumbel distribution (EVA Type I), the following equations estimates return periods (recurrence intervals) of extreme temperatures:

𝑥𝑇 = �̅� + 𝐼𝐾𝑇 𝑠 (Eq. 4.1) where,

𝑥𝑇 = n-year return period value of extreme temperature to be estimated, 0C

Theoretically, the intensity of a storm varies with duration in such a way that intensity generally corresponds to short durations, and low intensity to larger duration. In this analysis, average intensity of rainfall over relevant durations is estimated based on the non-stationary highest maximum projections of 24-hour rainfall as shown in Figure 4.4. As intense storms can produce heavy downpours on scales of minutes and where the design geometry of the bridge or highway drainage system would suffer by not being able to accommodate the sudden storm runoff, a depth-duration rating derived from Eq.(4.3) is presented in Table 4.3. The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) uses an empirical reduction formula equation (Eq. 4.3)26 for estimation of rainfall depths for various duration like 1-hr, 2-hr, etc. rainfall values from annual maximum values. This formula is used to estimate the short duration rainfall from daily rainfall data in of Mandla Station as it is supposed to be the best estimation of short duration rainfall for the Indian sub-continent.

Under cyclonic disturbances, heavy rainfall occurs in regions exposed to these disturbances, particularly the coastal areas of India. Rainfall caused by such depressions can range from 40 to 80 cm per day (Rakhecha & Picharoty, Current Science, Vol.71, No 3, Aug 1996); a screenshot (Box 4.5) of their estimate for highest rainfall for 1-day duration for the period 1875 to 1982 under cyclonic disturbances is reproduced below.

4.4 Wind and Cyclone Hazard

Climate change is speculated to increase the frequency of high-intensity storms mainly in coastal basins as in theory a warmer world should indeed produce more potent atmospheric disturbances creating cyclones. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) reckons that the frequency of cyclones will stay the same or decrease while their average intensity goes up, but the evidence so far is confusing as there is no consensus on the cause of them. Worldwide, there is no trend in either the frequency or the intensity of tropical storms.

Literature (footnoted 8 on page 7 of this report) states that wind data are collected just twice a day at 8:30 hrs and 17:30 hrs in weather stations in Madhya Pradesh. Round the clock wind data recorded at least in hourly intervals would have been useful in establishing an EVA of wind speeds. Unfortunately such data do not exist and hence no further analysis can be performed.

However, a wind and cyclone vulnerability map27 produced by IMD (Box 4.6) may provide some indications as to maximum wind speeds. Madhya Pradesh seems to fall under moderate
