Chapter 1:
Environment Management Plan:
1. Introduction:
An Environmental Policy for the project will be developed by the Contractors senior
management team. The environmental policy, as defined by ISO 14001, is a statement by the
organization of its intentions and principles in relation to its overall environmental performance
which provides a framework for action and for the setting of its environmental objectives and
targets. It will be communicated to all employees and Sub-Contractors via site inductions and
tool box talks and will be displayed on various notice boards throughout the construction sites.
The policy should also be available to the public.
Environmental Impact Assessment has become an increasingly well-known environmental
management tool as a result of demands that is mounted on companies and industries to advance
upon their environmental performance. It is now a common tool in the developed nations and is
increasingly being functional in developing countries by overseas and local investors.
The EMP document can be used throughout the project life cycle – commissioning,
mobilization &construction, operation & maintenance and decommissioning. It is regularly
updated to be aligned with the project progress from commissioning to mobilization to
construction to operation to decommissioning.
EMP’s outline the environmental impacts, the mitigation measures, roles and responsibilities,
timescales and cost of mitigation. EMP is a practical and achievable plan of management to
ensure that any environmental impact during all the phases is minimized and lead in the direction
of sustainable development.
2. Purpose of the Environment management plan (EMP):
Encourage good management practices through planning and commitment to environmental
issues concerning any project;
 It tells how the management of the environment is reported and performance evaluated
periodically;
 To provide rational and practical environmental guidelines that will assist in minimizing
the potential environmental impact of activities;
 Helps in minimizing disturbance to the environment (physical, biological and ecological,
socioeconomic, cultural, and archaeological,).
 Combat all forms of pollution through monitoring air, noise, land, water, waste, and
energy and natural resources.
 Protection of sensitive and endangered flora and fauna;
 Prevent land degradation;
 Comply and adhere to all applicable laws, regulations, standards and guidelines for the
protection of the environment;
 Adopt best practicable waste management for all types of waste (liquid and solid) with
objective on prevention, minimization, recycling, treatment or disposal of wastes;
 Describe all monitoring procedures required to identify impacts on the environment;
 Train and bring awareness to employees and contractors with regard to environmental
obligations and compliance.
 Reduce environmental risk and provide better Health, Safety and Environment
(H&S&E).
 Increase efficiency through minimum consumption and conservation of energy deplete-
able resources
 Provides with a plan answering - what, where, when, how and who?
 Establishing the reporting system to be undertaken during the construction.
4
 The EMP also serves to highlight specific requirements that will be monitored during the
development and should the environmental impacts not have been satisfactorily
prevented or mitigated, corrective action will have to be taken.
3. What the Environment management plan must be containing?
EMP shall be including the following items:
1) Plan - Planning, including identifying environmental impacts and establishing
environmental goals.
2) Do - Implementing, including employee training and establishing operational controls.
3) Check - Checking, including auditing, monitoring and taking corrective action.
4) Act - Reviewing, including progress reviews and taking action to make needed changes.

Check

3.1. Environmental Supervision before Construction


Review of pollution prevention proposal: according to the process design of a specific project,
“three waste” (waste water, waste gas, and solid waste) discharge link during the construction
workmanship shall be reviewed. The advancement of treatment technology and feasibility of the
treatment measures, which are adopted during the discharge of major pollutant and design, shall
also be reviewed.
Before the project, the final method of disposal and source of the pollutant shall be planned
and implemented specifically after reporting the responsible department of the environmental
protection as per the regulations and treatment requirements of the related document. Review of
environmental protection clause in the Construction Contract: construction contractor must abide
by related requirements of environmental protection which shall be reflected in the construction
contract in the way of specific clause.

5
During the process of construction, strengthen supervision, inspection, and monitoring to
reduce the pollution effect on the environment during the construction period, and carry out
review on the level of civilized construction quality of the construction unit as well as
construction environmental management.
3.2. Environmental Supervision during Construction:
AIN AZMER will conduct daily on-site supervision, e.g. whether the construction is carried
out as per clauses of the environmental protection and EMP, and whether the clauses are changed
without approval; whether the environmental protection requirement is satisfied during the
construction process by monitoring whether construction work is in line with the environmental
protection standard, and whether it is carried out as per the design requirements of the
environmental protection; whether each environmental protection measure (which can guarantee
the environmental protection requirements) is implemented during the construction process.
The main contents are:
1) Supervise water and soil loss caused by the major works and the temporary works.
Inspect whether the facilities of water and soil conservation measure up to the
requirement of design and whether soils obtained and dumped as per the procedure and
location; as a key point, it shall be supervised that the waste soil and stone during
construction are not dumped to the side slope of the mountain in order not to spoil the
scenery.
2) Environmental supervision of industrial and domestic wastewater disposal: Supervise the
source of the industrial and domestic wastewater, discharge amount and water quality
index, construction progress of the disposal facilities, as well as the disposal result.
Inspect and supervise whether it measures up to the approved requirement of discharge.
3) Environmental supervision of atmospheric pollution: atmospheric pollution in the work
area mainly comes from the exhaust gas and dust produced during the construction and
production process. For the source of pollution, discharge is required to be done when it
measures up to the standard. The specified environmental quality standard shall be met in
the work area and the area under its impact measure up to relevant standard.
4) Environmental supervision of noise control: In order to prevent the damage from sources
of noise or vibration, it shall be prevented as per the design requirements. In particular,
for the blast work, it is required that the noise environment quality in the work area and
the area under its impact measure up to the relevant standard.
5) Environmental supervision of solid waste disposal: solid waste disposal include
industrial, domestic trash disposal and industrial slag disposal. It is required to ensure that
the site is clean and tidy.
6) Environmental supervision of the wildlife: Prevent the impact of water and soil loss.
Control the construction as per the regulations of vegetation protection, especially the
implementation of the measures of protection and relocation of the ancient trees, as well
as separation of the rare animals.
7) Environmental supervision of people’s health: Ensure safety and reliability of the
domestic drinking water, prevent infectious disease, and provide necessary welfare and
sanitation.
8) Supervision of construction and installation of the environmental protection facilities:
supervise construction of the facilities of sewage treatment, acoustic protective screen
and green work.

3.3. Supervision after Completion of Inspection:


1. Assist the Owner in the organization of final acceptance of construction.
2. Prepare the final report for the environmental supervision of the project.

3.4. Summary:
The developed EMP addresses the environmental impacts during the design, construction and
operational phases of the project. EMP outlines the key environmental management and
safeguards that will be initiated by the project proponent to manage the project’s key
environmental concerns. Environmental Management Plan (EMP) is the mechanism to ensure
that environmental considerations are integrated into the project survey and design, contract
documents and project supervision and monitoring. These are tools for mitigating or offsetting
the potential adverse environmental impacts resulting from various activities of the project.
The EMP prepared consists mainly of mitigation measure, monitoring plan and
recommendations.
The EMP should consist of cost estimates for monitoring program, equipment procurement,
manpower, transportation, office cost, studies, reporting, stationeries, etc.

Chapter 2:
Waste Management Plan:
1. Introduction:
This sub plan contains environmental management objectives, mitigation measures,
monitoring and reporting requirements relating to waste management and reuse. This sub
plan has been prepared by AIN AZMER Company from the Review of Environmental
Factors& waste sources.
This plan identifies general mitigation measures required along the length of the
projects in order to reduce the generation of waste and implement a waste reduction and
reuse culture on all components of the project. Waste management will focus on the
training of project personnel through various site inductions and toolbox talks. This will
be undertaken through proactive implementation of appropriate management and
mitigation measures accompanied by awareness and accurate monitoring practices
throughout construction.
2. Scope:
The scope of the Waste Management Guideline (WMG) is to provide the general guides to
the minimum expectations as laid out.

3. Purpose:
12
To define the requirements for managing and controlling waste generated by any activity.

4. Waste Management Criteria


The Company personals shall undertake the works in a manner which aims to:
 Avoid unnecessary creation of waste.
 Reduce waste where possible.
 Reuse materials where possible
 Recycle materials.
The above is outlined in the Resource Management Hierarchy included in the Waste
Avoidance and Resource Recovery. Disposal is a last resort. Any materials which cannot be
reused or recycled will be taken to a waste disposal facility approved to receive that type of
waste.
The Company shall not cause permit, or allow any waste generated outside the site to
be received at the site for storage, treatment, processing, reprocessing or disposal on the site
except as expressly permitted.
The management of waste on site is to be in accordance with the applicable law in
Kurdistan.

maintain a register for logging all waste materials removed from site by using the form of
waste materials as it is shown in appendix A.

6.6 Our subcontractors, including their subcontractors, are wholly responsible for ensuring
that the arrangements in place on a project are being followed and adhered to. They will
specifically:

 Assign responsibility within their organisation for the control and elimination of
waste material.
 Monitor and maintain an audit process of the arrangements in place for
controlling waste management.

7. Definitions:
 Disposal: The discharge, deposit, injection, solid or hazardous waste into or on
any land or water so that the solid or hazardous waste or any constituent may
enter the environment.

 Generator: Any person, by site, whose act or process produces hazardous waste
identified or whose act first causes a hazardous waste to become subject to regular
soil contaminated with a hazardous substance causes the contaminated soil.
A solid waste, or combination of solid wastes, which because of its quantities
characteristics may either cause, or significantly contribute to, an increase in
mortality or an increase in serious irreversible or incapacitating reversible illness;
or pose a substantial present or potential hazard to human health or the
environment when improperly treated, stored, aged, Generator.

 Storage: When used in connection with hazardous waste, means the containment
of hazardous waste, either on a temporary basis or for a period of years, in such a
manner as not to constitute disposal of such hazardous waste.

 Aqueous waste: All untreated effluent such as sewage, detergent and other
contaminated water.

 Hazardous waste: Includes chemical waste either liquid or solid that may present
a risk of personal injury or adverse impact on the environment, including oils,
grease and other hydrocarbon-based materials.

 Solid Waste: Includes domestic waste, concrete, soil, redundant scrap etc.

14
8. Waste Storage and Destination Intentions
Waste and materials generated by construction activities will be reused on site where
possible. Waste (including soil/rock and fill) generated by construction works will be
stockpiled on site for future reuse where practicable.
To the extent possible, material such as concrete, steel, glass and timber will be
recycled. These items will be sorted, collected and taken to an appropriate recycling
depot.
Vegetation which is required to be cleared where practical will be chipped, mulched
and reused for site rehabilitation. These waste materials will be removed from site by a
licensed contractor and disposed of at an approved waste management facility. The
closest licensed waste management facility (accepting general Solid Waste, asbestos,
and waste tires) is Button Derry Waste Management Facility, Where necessary,
disposal of waste will be conducted in accordance with the applicable laws in
Kurdistan.
The Items below describe the management of waste in relation to handling, storage,
reuse and final destinations.

 Rocks: It will be stockpiled temporarily in the vicinity of its source, prior to


being reused.
 Top soil: It will be stockpiled and will then be reused on site.
 Green Waste: It will be stockpiled on site in its source and will be reused where
possible.
 Waste Concrete: It will be stockpiled in a determined waste stockpile area for
reused or recycling.
 Metals: It will be stockpiled on site within the compound locations and taken to
the recycling.
 Hydrocarbons: It must be kept in a bounded area within the compound
locations and taken to a waste facility licensed to accept that type of waste.
 Sanitary Waste: Waste from amenities will be stored in appropriate storage
tanks prior to being pumped out by licensed contractor and disposed of at a
licensed facility.
 General Waste: It will be stored in skip bins or wheelie bins on site for
transport and disposal by a licensed contractor.
9. General Approach:
The general approach for waste management during Project construction is to:

 Follow a systematic program that applies the waste management hierarchy to


reasonably minimize wastes requiring disposal. This program shall include
monitoring equipment performance and regular scheduled maintenance programs
to provide optimum performance and minimize waste generation.
 Manage waste on-site: Transfer of Project waste (including material for recycling
and wastewater) to third party facilities shall be avoided and shall be considered
only as an interim measure on an exception basis. Where it is necessary to utilize
a third party facility, an audit shall be undertaken of that facility and it may only
be utilized following submission of a satisfactory audit report to Company and
with Company’s prior written approval.
 Establish facilities and procedures appropriate to prudently manage wastes
requiring disposal on-site in accordance with applicable standards dumping,

15
spilling, leaking, or placing of any waste materials. For example, an action such
as unearthing Hazardous Wasted, concentration, or physical, chemical, and
transported.
