Background
The BRBIP is a project being implemented by loan and grant from ADB with the objective of
enhancing the environmental conditions of sacred river Bagmati. The main outputs of the project
during the first phase for which the report is being written includes:
(i) Rural incomes uplifting through increased employment, skills training and improved
access to credit for the rural poor,
(ii) Capacity building and decentralized governance, including addressing corruption
concerns and
(iii) Fostering rural transport connectivity and complementary community infrastructure
investments.
Ministry of Urban Development (MoUD) is the Executing Agency (EA) while the Implementing
Agency responsibility is segregated between High Powered Commission for Integrated
Development for Bagmati Civilization (HPCIDBC) and Department of Irrigation (DOI). On one
hand HPCIDBC is the Implementing agency (IA) for River Improvement works of upper Bagmati
and hosts the Project Management Unit (PCMU) which is supported also by Project Management
and Construction Supervision Consultant (PMCS). While on the other hand DOI is the IA for the
design and construction of increased water storage capacity in the Shivapuri Nagarjun National
Park.
With the growth of population and subsequent urbanization in the Kathmandu valley, there is
tremendous pressure in the natural resources especially the water flowing through the Bagmati
River. Unchecked waste disposal along the bank of the river and unregulated ground water
extraction for the domestic and industrial purposes has left the Bagmati River with polluted water
which is totally of substandard not only for the human use but also for the aquatic plants and
animals to survive there in. Apart from losing the dwelling condition of aquatic flora and fauna, the
physical quality and quantity deterioration of the river water has led to a loss of cultural and
recreational amenity for the local communities.
Government of Nepal with its different line Ministries and the Departments are working in the
process to improve the quality and the quantity of Bagmati River water. Bagmati River Basin
Improvement Project (BRBIP) has conducted watershed conservation program through the Non-
Government Organization. In order to achieve the objective of increasing the water quantity in the
river, BRBIP has well defined its tangible benefit in its stipulated project output number three -
Increased water availability during the dry season and watershed conservation.
Getting along with the objective as mentioned in the output 3 of the project, Department of
Irrigation has initiated the construction of 24-meter high concrete faced rock fill dam in Dhap area
of Shivapuri under the program of design and built approach. Since the construction of Dhap dam
has to go in compliances with Government approved Environmental Management plan - felling
down of trees for construction site clearance has to be compensated by replantation in fivefold -
tree plantation to compensate the lost vegetation has to be initiated in an effective and efficient
methods.
Environmental Safeguards for BRBIP
Environmental Assessment is the primary administrative tool to integrate environmental
considerations into decision-making to ensure that proposed development intervention will have
minimal environmental impacts. BRBIP fall in “A” category project according to ADB.
Safeguard Policy Statement, 2009 Therefore, Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) for the
projects under BRBIP is mandatory in order to assess the environmental consequences of the
construction as well as operation activities and suggest appropriate, practical and site-specific
mitigation and enhancement measures. In this context, EIA report has been prepared for the
project in accordance with the environmental regulations (Environmental Protection Act, 1997 and
Environmental Protection Rule, 1997) of GoN and also satisfying the ADB environmental
procedures.
Environmental Monitoring is an important tool for ensuring compliance of mitigation and measures
and implementation of EMP. The construction works for Dhap dam construction have be initiated
after the completion of Contractor’s/labor camp construction and minor improvement of access
road to dam site at Dhap after receiving formal permission from National Park and forest ministry
(on January 27th, 2017). After the receiving the formal permission from National Park and forest
ministry, tree cutting work was commenced on access road to dam site and on some parts of the
dam site area from the month of February along with the improvement and widening of the access
road. The foundation excavation work of the Dhap Dam that was started from mid-April is still
continuing as of date. Tree cutting of the remaining tree on the area above the dam axis is being
cleared at the moment. The maintenance and upgrading of access road to the site is continuous
till now.
The following items are the construction status of the Dhap Dam
Construction work was delayed by one and half year because of delayed in approval by SNNP.
The following construction work is done;
1. Around 21 Km of earthen access road improvement is completed except construction of
side drains, improvement of cross drains and gravelling.

Environmental Concerns of Dhap Dam Construction
Submission of Construction Environment Management Plan: - Contractor has submitted
Construction Environment Management Plan (CEMP) on month of January 2018.
Tree Cutting: - In this season about 800 trees has been chopped off from Dhap dam
reservoir area. All together till now around 2100 numbers of trees has been cut from Dhap dam
reservoir area and 500 numbers of tree has been cleared from access road. Remaining trees are
still need to be cut as work progress.
Stacking of Tree Logs and Cutting of Trees: - Felled tree logs are being stock pilled inside the
reservoir area. During informal talk with SNNP officials, stocking pilling area is not sufficient.
Formally specified area within Sundarijal Secondary School is starting to construct building and
they don’t have space to store timber logs. There is no space in Manichud Camp. The stock piling has to be settled after dialogue with SNNP. So far, around 1200 nos. of cut trees are stocked in
Dhap reservoir area, around 4750 trees in access roads, around 710 in Manichud Camp and 215
in Sundarijal School. Remaining tree roots, branches and timber logs which are in the reservoir
area, are collected and stacked.
The details of cut trees and the location of its management is as per the attached Annex 1.
Laboratory Establishment at Site: - Establishment of laboratory at site was to complete
04/12/2017. The laboratory was not found functional yet. A very few equipment’s apparatus are
mobilized at site. The equipment’s for soil testing is mobilized at site, the laboratory is not
operational because the power supply and testing equipment’s are not arranged systematically in the laboratory.
Excavated from Main Dam and Abutment Material Stock Pilling: - Excavated materials is
stock pilled along the river channel downstream of the dam toe and location for stilling basin of
spillway without protection and along the stream channel upstream of labor camp without proper
protection against flowing into the river channel. The contractor was reminded for the
management in written but not started yet.
Excavated Material Saddle Dam Foundation: - Excavated material obtained from saddle dam
is stocked, along the stream channel at the right bank of reservoir near existing culvert, which is
liable to spill into the stream channel if it is unchecked. Contractor has been made aware of
environmental concern during site visit.
Flowing of Excavated Muck Downhill at 12+140:- Excavated fine muck is flowing downhill at
12+140 of access road, the contractor is mad aware to manage the muck against flowing towards
downhill. It is reported that they are trying to control excavated material against flowing towards
downhill.
Solid Waste Management: - Kitchen solids are collected in a pit near the camp and frequently
remove from there safely out of SNNP area decomposable and non-decomposable waste
separately. Toilet solids are collected into underground safety tank.
Spoil Disposal and Storage: - Excavated material is dumped at the bank of river downstream
of main dam and upstream of reservoir at stream bank near the culvert on road to Chisapani. The
material is likely to flow with water if small rainfall occurs in the catchment. Management
measurement of discharge and silt management should be done immediately. It was informed to
contactor that the areas where foundation excavated materials stocked piled along left bank of
river, downstream main dam and on left bank of river channel, upstream of labor camp (near the
culvert across the road to Chisapani) need immediate toe/slope protection wall to prevent stock
piled material from washing away with increase in water flow intensity.
Water and Silt Management:- The contractor need to monitor the water quality of stream at
500m downstream of the main dam; but they reluctant to comply water and silt management as
per item no 1.8 water and silt management of Bill of Quantities. Establishment of device for water
and sediment measurement is prerequisite before the start of dam foundation excavation because
the excavated material was flowing with water unchecked during rainy season which was
requested to contactors to start the Water and Silt Management immediately.
Submission of Quarterly Environmental Compliance Report: - The contractor has not
submitted environment compliance quarterly report (as per 4.18c of Particular Condition of
Contract) during this year duration in spite of request verbally and in written at several occasions.
The Environmental Management Plan for the river training/beatification work from Gokarna to
Sinamanga had been prepared and submitted to the client for the approval from the concerned
ministry for tits implementation. Similarly, the contractor (KALIKA-RANKEEN-LAMA JV) had been
awarded and mobilized for the river training/beatification work from Gokarna to Sinamangal. They
have commenced their work from January 2017 from the Gokarna Bridge till Sinamangal Bridge
working on different section. They have also submitted the Construction Environmental
Management Plan to the consultation and they are conducting their work as per it following the
environmental compliances as stated on it and EMP. Work progress in construction site have
been reviewed by us and forwarded with comments and suggestion for further improvement.
Overall Environmental Safeguard Status
Dhap Dam Construction Site
Environmental safeguard status in Dhap Dam construction work is good as the construction work
at site started from the month of February with the clearing of the tress on access road of dam
site area with minor improvement and widening of the road. Establishment of Contractor camp
site is completed with toilet facility, supply of water and solar electricity. The Waste water from
toilet and kitchen effluent has been managed in Septic tank with soak pit. The Dam foundation
excavation work has been started following the slope stability as per the design following the
mitigation measures. The Insurance of working labors and staffs have been done and has been
following the occupational health and safety parameters at site by providing personal Protective
Equipment work has started at the project site.
Preparation of Cost Estimation and ToR for Implementation of Compensatory Plantation
work of Dhap for Re-plantation work
Almost 90,000 plants have to be planted as a part of EMP implementation for the total
of 2786 trees fell down with respect to ongoing Dhap dam construction works. Due to the fact that
the cost for plantation was not included in contractor's BOQ and they being tangled within the civil
works of the dam it is very unlikely of them that they will execute the plantation works if they were
to do it. In this context to carry out compensatory plantation work enrolling new NGO has been
planned by the client. So for that the cost estimate for plantation work and term of reference for
the NGO has been prepared for the procurement work which is as on attached Annex 2.
Assisting EIA team of Phase II work
Assisted the EIA conducting team from ADB for the BRBIP Phase II work. Shear project related
design, information and material to the EIA team. Took them to site (Utar Gaya, Gokerna,
Slesmantak and Mirgasthali hill, Gaurighat, Pashupati and Guhyeshwori area, and Thapathali to
Balkhu) for field visit related to the scope of work included in Phase-II project. Help them to find
list down related concerned stokeholds due to this project work and also assisted them to the
reach to those related concerned stokeholds for public and stakeholders consultation.
River Corridor Beautification Work
Environmental safeguard status of Bagmati river corridor beautification work is categorized as
good as the work is continuing from mid-January 2017 with the construction of stone masonry
retaining walls and foundation excavation for it following the construction environmental
management plan and following the EMP. The Insurance of available working labors and staffs
have been done and has been following the occupational health and safety parameters at site by
providing personal Protective Equipment. Work has started at the project site. The Contractor’s camp has been established at site with some temporary tented Labor camps at site near the
working area with supply of drinking water, electricity and toilet facility. The Traffic on the side
road is continuous while the construction work is on progress and now disturbance on road with
the construction materials stockpiling and vehicles is felt. The plants and greenery on the either
side of the river are being protected, preserved and in some extent relocated by the contractors
during the construction work to minimize it lose.

The probable sites for compensatory plantation will be finalized by the interaction with Park authority and local buffer zone users Community. Issues and Way Forward for Dhap Dam work Major to improve civil construction work following preparatory works are prerequisite:
1. Completion and submission design and drawings of main dam, saddle dam and spillway
and appurtenances, satisfying employer’s requirements. 2. Furnishing of client/engineers site office cum quarter so that engineers’ representative and
environmental inspector could be stationed at site.
3. Establishment fuel and construction material warehouse, for storing manufactured
construction materials e.g., cement, admixtures for grouting, reinforcement for plinth slab
construction and different types of water stops for construction expansion/contraction
joints etc.
4. Connection of power supply to laboratory so that the saddle dam construction materials
could be tested.
5. Resources allocation e.g., sufficient earth moving equipment’s for main and saddle dam preparation.
6. Establishment of sand washing and rock material screening plant. Because grouting in
saddle dam foundation could be started as soon as saddle dam design drawing is
finalized.
7. Establishment of batching plant it is pertinent because preparation of plinth slab foundation
its construction could be started as soon as excavation of foundation is completed.
8.
9. Removal of top organic material and soil from spillway chute and its toe and geotechnical
investigation of the area.
Revised Work Schedule and Resources Plan: - Revised Work Schedule was submitted on 22/11/2017. The resources plan was not attached. PMDSC has requested GLR to submit resources plan to materialize the proposed work schedule.

From the perspective of socio economic and cultural importance, Bagmati River always remained as a most significant river not only for the Nepalese people but also to the huge lot of Hindu population all over the world. The flowing water of Bagmati River being considered as a holy water is used in ritual ceremonies practiced at the numerous Ghats and temples located on the bank of river. The Gokarna Ghat by the side of Gokarneshwor temple, Aryaghat by the Side of Pashupatinath temple and Kalmochan Ghat are considered as the most scared place and on different festivals people gather here to practice Hindu rituals by using the holy water of the Bagmati River. The value of the river is further enhanced by its versatile use of its water including drinking and sanitation in many of the households, hydropower generation especially in the middle reach of the river and irrigation services in the vast stretch of land in the flat plain of terai. Shivapuri watershed being the source of the Bagmati River supplies potable water for the people residing in Kathmandu valley.
With the growth of population and subsequent urbanization in the Kathmandu valley, there is tremendous pressure in the natural resources especially the water flowing through the Bagmati River. Unchecked waste disposal along the bank of the river and unregulated ground water extraction for the domestic and industrial purposes has left the Bagmati River with polluted water which is totally of substandard not only for the human use but also for the aquatic plants and animals to survive there in. Apart from losing the dwelling condition of aquatic flora and fauna, the physical quality and quantity deterioration of the river water has led to a loss of cultural and recreational amenity for the local communities.
Government of Nepal with its different line Ministries and the Departments are working in the process to improve the quality and the quantity of Bagmati River water. Bagmati River Basin Improvement Project (BRBIP) has conducted watershed conservation program through the Non-Government Organization. In order to achieve the objective of increasing the water quantity in the river, BRBIP has well defined its tangible benefit in its stipulated project output number three - Increased water availability during the dry season and watershed conservation.
Getting along with the objective as mentioned in the output 3 of the project, Department of Irrigation has initiated the construction of 24-meter high concrete faced rock fill dam in Dhap area of Shivapuri under the program of design and built approach. Since the construction of Dhap dam has to go in compliances with Government approved Environmental Management plan - felling down of trees for construction site clearance has to be compensated by replantation in fivefold - tree plantation to compensate the lost vegetation has to be initiated in an effective and efficient methods.
2. Objective of the consulting Service
General
In the process of Dhap dam construction activities being carried out in the forest area, it has been reported that a total of 2794 trees have been fell down for which 90,000 tree saplings has to be planted as a compensatory measure as a part of EMP implementation. NGO 1, assigned by BRBIP as a responsible organization for the watershed improvement of Shivapuri Nagarjun forest area, has planted 15000 tree saplings in line with the EMP. The remaining 75000 trees saplings needs to be planted in the area specified in order to meet the overall requirement. Although the normal practice of tree plantation work is provisioned in the estimated cost of the contractor’s price, here it is intended to carry out separately by employing NGO in order to expedite the Environmental compliance work in a rapid and effective manner. it is expected to carry out the plantation activities in an organized method by establishing a well flourished plant sapling’s nursery with strict Compliance of the Environmental safeguard policy as mentioned in the ADB guide line and the prevailing Environmental protection regulative laws of the Government of Nepal.
Specific
The specific objectives of the consultancy services are as follows:
Established Plant Nursery and develop enough sapling of given tress species to plant 75,000 numbers of different plants species as given by the Park for the Re-plantation work
Carry out of Compensatory Re-plantation work of 75,000 numbers of trees for the implementation of the EMP requirement of the Dam Project
The Compensatory Re-plantation species should be developed in the nursery at least bi-annually and must have minimum of 1-meter height before plantation begins.
Construct protective fencing of the plantation area as instructed by the Park Authority. Develop and construct the protection and preservation mechanism for the planted trees
species in the area for five years from the time of plantation work.
3. Scope of the Consultancy service:
The construction of Dhap dam to store 0.85 million cubic meter of rainwater storage has been conceptualized in the Shivapuri Nagarjun forest area to increase quantity and quality of the flowing water of the Bagmati River. The water thus accumulated would be released in the Bagmati River in a regulated manner throughout the year. Water from the uphill rolls all the way down the river dissolving adequate oxygen level making the river healthy for aquatic flora and fauna to habitat. It is obvious that the construction of Dam and the storage of water behind displace the occupancies of several trees and natural vegetation. A thorough Assessment of Environmental Impact Assessment has prescribed remedial mitigation measure of replantation as a compensatory measure. Among the several sequential activities in the dam construction such as surveying, planning, designing, pre – construction, construction and operation and maintenance, the removal of trees to clear the required reservoir area in the site carries a significant loss in the Shivapuri Nagarjun forest ecosystem causing displacement of highly dense, 385 trees per hectare of land, of the age old natural conglomeration of reserved forest. It is estimated that during its full fledge capacity of water storage, a total of 1964 numbers of trees are to be inundated behind the
main dam. Despite the losses in the numbers of trees and the vegetation, it has been reported that none of the endangered species of flora and fauna has been affected by the Environmental impact. Considering the state of the forest and the composition of species, the loss of biodiversity is minimal and recoverable in due course of time.
Compensation need to the assessment made by the environmental impact study has to be carried out in the forest area according to the working policy on construction and operation of physical Infrastructures within conservation areas, which insists the obligatory rule of planting 25 new trees sapling for every removed tree. With this equation, for 2794 trees that had been cleared from the inundation area of the reservoir and the dam construction site, planting of 70000 trees in total has to be carried out. Additional planting of 20,000 tree sapling has to be done to comply the condition of SNNP – for the loss of 12.52 ha of their forest land in reservoir construction, the additional plantation at the rate of 1600 saplings per hectare should be done. Hence, the scope of reforestation extends up to 90,000 trees saplings all together, keeping aside 15,000 trees that have been planted in the specified location by NGO 1 under watershed Management work for BRBIP and is an integral part of EMP implementation of Dhap Dam construction.
Now, the Project Implementation Irrigation Unit (PIIU) with the assistant of hired NGO has to carry on the plantation of 75,000 trees saplings within the predefined area of 46.88 hectare in order to cover the original trees density of 16,000 trees species per hectare of forest land. The plantation needs to be done in close coordination and supervision of park authority that assist in allocating the required site of trees plantation and the guidelines given by MFSC, Department of Wildlife to minimize the adversities shall be strictly taken care of so as to optimize the benefit of the project in restoring luster green forest environment.
