Theme : land restoration

Package RI-2 to RI-8
ASOM Mala - ASRIP RI 2 to RI 8 -Eco corridors
• Project documents DPR EIA volume IV A with a cost assigned EMP for
public disclosure. Engineering interventions are planned to protect
people, vehicles, infrastructure, trees cut with compensatory
plantation, emphasis given to temporary man and machinery at Labor
camps and road works, Health and sanitation, PPE, training for
working with least disturbance to local people.
• Bank funded EIA/EMP - Implemented by Part D of contract.
• Stakeholders - PIU/ PMU review of the project with timely meetings
and PPT recording the progress of ESHS and mitigation measures.
River Boundary Protection’s : prevention of soil
erosion with geo bags. New roads and high
embankments along rivers - mitigation measures
• Rivers and tributaries flowing through the project roads are
temporarily diverted , trained and allowed to flow back through new
Major bridge, Minor bridge and culverts.
• Geobags protection of slopes create a better life for villages affected
by monsoon overflows.
• Slope protection at flooding rivers during the construction period like
Kaldiya and Tuhi rivers at RI 4 - Geo bag protection is in the
implementation stage in 2024
EMP - Mitigation measures under implementation at RI 4
- Slope protection with Geobags -Km. 2+999 and 12+600
Geo bag protection at RI 4 - Km 6 +140
• Sarthebari Patshala Road
RI 2 : Raincuts and Protection works during
construction - Monsoon influences and
mitigation
Waterbody Protection at RI 2 - Gabion wall , guiding drain to control inflow during monsoon July 2023 at RI 2.
Labor Camp Protection from Flood-RI-4 elevated ,the flooring
at lab by 1 meter as a Mitigation measure - 2024/ 2023

2024 : Labor camp plantations maintained -RI 4
and RI 5
ASOM Mala - ESHS Checklists for Carbon foot print, water-
footprint, and energy consumption data maintained

• Monthly ESHS MPR checklists

submitted by contractor
• Reviewed by CSC for site specific
measures.
• ESHS MPR checklists integrated
to PMU MPR ESHS
• India-Carbon footprint for
household consumption - per
capita footprint 1472 kg CO2 e
per year.
 Biodiversity conservation and
mitigation measures in the Project
• RI 3 : Elephant under pass
recommended in the DPR under
EMP. 2018 to 2020.
• Site observations are not
conclusive on 3 chainages
recorded.
• The PIU/ PMU had meetings with
Bank to consider alternative
methods of control with traffic
calming measures
• ROB at RI 3 may be an alternative
• RI 2 : Conservation of
waterbody at Km 25+000 .
Waterbody seen with several
species of water birds like
fulvous whistling teal,
cormorants, open billed storks .
• Slope protection with Geo bags
recommended at location.
• Work in progress during May
2024
25+700 Slope protection work in progress ; RI 2
