This project follows the program of the Govemment to supply electricity to I 00%1/o of districts and 80% of communes in the year of 2000 The Rural Energy Project (Phase 11) - Southern Region (hereafter: the Project) is to distribute electricity to 63 communes of the eight provinces to create proper conditions for socio-economic development in the remote rural areas. This EIA Report aiTns at identification, prediction and assessment of the potential impacts of the project's activities on the natural environment, socio-economic conditions of the project affected households (PAHs), recommendation of a proper Environmental Management Plan (EMP) and a process of public consultation and information dissemination. This EIA Report will be used for Project Approval and environmental management in all phases of project implementation. Polices, Legal and Administrative Framework This EIA Report is prepared based on Vietnamese legal framework and guidelines, of which the most important documents are: Law on Environmental Protection issued by the order of the National President on 10 January 1994; Government Decree No 175/CP dated 18/10/1994 guiding the implementation of the Law on Environmental Protection; Ministerial Circular No 490/1998/TT- BKBCMMT of MOSTE dated 29/4/1998 guiding EIA preparation and appraisal; and the Vietnamese Standards for the Environment, issued in 1995 and 2001. This EIA is prepared based also on regarding the WB guidelines and policies: Environmental Assessment (OP 4.01, BP 4.01, GP 4.01); Natural Habitats (OP 4.04, BP 4.04, GP 4.04); Forestry (OP 4.36, GP 4.36); Cultural Property (OPN 11.03); Indigenous Peoples (OD4.20); Involuntary Resettlement (OD4.30), Information Disclosure (BPI7.50); Public Participation. Scope of the Project The Project includes installation of 2,379 km of distribution lines, of which 1,426 km are medium voltage (MV) lines and 953 km are low voltage (LV) lines (The voltage levels are 22/0.4kV). Total the substations are 1,362 - they are pole-mountings substation type. The project will connect 63 communes in the eight Southern provinces in the Central Highland, the Northeast Mekong Region and Mekong Delta. The safety right-of-way (ROW) for the 1 phase, 3 phase MV and LV lines is 4m, 6rh and 2m, respectively, from which all housing and other building facilities will be removed and all trees which are higher than 4m have to be cut. The access roads for construction will be built from the main roads as required; existing paths will be used if possible. The construction camps will be installed for workers and technicians in the project's communes. Baseline Data: (the Existing State of the Environment at the Project's Sites) In this EIA Report the major characteristics of the natural environment and socio-economic conditions of Lam Dong province (in the Central Highland); Binh Phuoc, Dong Nai provinces (in the Mckong Northeast Region) and 5 provinces in the Mekong Delta Region (Tra Vinh, Soc Trang, Bac ILeu. Ca Mau and Kien Gianig) are summarized. The main features of the present socio-economy of 63 conimunes are also given In these communes, 3 conununes are located in the mountainous reinon of Lamn Dong province; 16 communes are located in the upland area of Binh Phuoc and Done Nal Page v September 2003 Project Management Unit - PC2 E]A - Rural Energy Pro ject I Phase 11 provinces. All these communes have rich natural resources (soils, water and forest) but they are still poor economically due to low development of education, healtlh care, infrastructure facilities and low agricultural productivity. All 44 communes in the 5 provinces of the Mekong Delta Region have some constraint in climate (drau ght in the dry season and flood in the rainy season), in soil quality (highl salinity and/or acidity) and in low development of education and economy. In the 63 communes belonging to the project there are no natural reserves areas or protected historical, cultural sites. In the project's communes there are 7 ethnic groups Kinh is the ethnic majonty; and Stieng, K'Ho, Muong, Dao, Tay, Nung, Kh'mer and Hoa (Chinese) are ethnic minorities. The project implementation will support tens of thousands of hou'seholds in these remote rural communes to increase their socio-economic development. Environmental Impacts The potential impacts on the natural and socio-economic environment may be divided into 3 phases of project implementation. Impact scales may be classified as no impact; minor; intermediate and major. Impacts in thle Pre - Construction Phase Due to clearance of project Right-of-Way (ROW) and substation sites in the pre-construction phase the project may create some impacts on the ecological system: the effects of clearing and tree cutting. control of vegetable in ROW as all trees higher than 4m must be cut down. However, as the ROWs have a small area and do not go though any natural forests and/or natural reserve areas, the impacts on the ecological system are assessed as minor. The ROWs do not occupy any area of cultural, religious and historical sites in all provinces. Therefore, impacts on these issues are not expected. The most significant impact in the Pre-Construction Phase relates to relocation and resettlement: total number of the Project Affected Households (PAHs) is 9,841 of which 295 are ethnic minority; total area of land in ROW is 7,844,528 M2; total area of land affected permanently is only 207,835 m2 and total area of land affected temporarily is 7,636,693 mi2. The provinces having the largest area of private land affected by the project are Kien Giang (28,681 mi2), Bac Lieu (20,073 m2), and Ca Mau (15,254 m2 ). The other provinces have only a small area that will be affected by the project: Lam Dong (1,516 m2) and Soc Trang (1,458 m2). Impacts on socio-economy of the PAHs including ethnic minorities PAHs are assessed as "intermediate" but mitigable by the implementation of a proper Resettlement Action Plan (RAP). The War residues (toxic chemicals and explosive materials) are not expected in the 5 provinces in the Mekong Delta. But in Binh Phuoc and Larn Dong explosive materials may be a problem during preparation of the ROW. The impact is mitigable. Impacts in the Construction Phase During construction of the substations and transmission lines some impacts on the environment are expected: * Air and noise pollution caused by construction machines Water pollution and change in landscape caused by construction spoil disposal * Water, land, air pollution caused by disposal of wastes from worker's camps * Labour accident caused by insufficient conditions in labour safety. All the expected impacts, listed above, during the construction phase are assessed as mnnor and may be well mitigaied by proper management and technical measures Page vi September 2003 Project Management Unit - PC2 EIA - Rural Energy Project I Phase 11 Impacts in the Operationi Pliase In this phase, the impacts may.be created by operation and maintenance activities. They are impacts on biological environment by cutting tree for protection of transmission lines, environmenital and health impacts fire hazard and by electric shock. These expected impacts are assessed as miinor and may be controlled by proper management and technical measures. Alternatives Analysing various alternatives: diesel, small hydropower plants, wind energy, solar energy and construction of the electricity network indicated that the last one is the most advantageous, due to: * The natural network grid was already available; * Network is more reliable; * Cost for the alternative is low In case of "without Project Alternative", the life of the people in the 63 communes will have not good conditions for improvement. Environmental Management Plan (EMP) EMP includes impact mitigation, monitonng, and capacity building. Mitigation Measures Mitigation measures to reduce the project impacts are to be carried out in 3 phases: pre-construction, construction and operation. During the pre-construction phase, the layout of the lines needs to be concurred and cleared by the local authority to minimize the adverse impacts, particularly for the resettlement A proper Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) based on the policies of GOV and WB, will be implemented to minimize the impacts to PAHs and support PAHs in rehabilitation of their economic activities. Alternatives for each component have been considered and selected to ensure they have the lowest impacts on natural ecosystem. The route has been discussed and agreed upon by the local authonties and relevant organizations. The substation will be equipped with all necessary protection devices No transformers with PCB will be used in the project. In this phase, investigation and removal of explosive materials (residual mines) in ROW will be conducted. During construction phase, mitigation measures include control of soil erosion disposal of spoil material, air and water pollution; ensure safety regulations in place, health care regulation for workers in camps and other measures. All measures are to be included in the bidding documents for works. During the operation phase, mitigation measures include control of ROW maintenance, access road to sensitive areas, control of fire hazards and ensure safety for workers and local residents Environmental Monitoring Natural environment monitoring Noise monitoring during the construction.period will be done at places where noise pollution will be a problem. - In case residents near construction sites complain on noise pollution, noise measurement will be made. - Dust monitoring during the construction period will be made at the places where construction,activities may create dust pollution. Water pollutIon monitoring is not necessary, expect when people have complaints. Biological resources (wildlife) monitoring is not necessary. RAP Monitorine Two monitoring programs will be conducted in parallel: Page vii September 2003 Project Management Unit - PC2 EIA - Rural Energy Project I Phase If 1. Internal monitoring to be implemented by PC2 or its designate; and 2. External monitoring to be implemented by independent monitoring consultants. RAP monitoring aims at evaluating the implementation of the RAP at every commnune, so that the negative impacts on PAHs could be minimized Public Consultation and Information Dissemination As the project is the second stage of the on-going project, the consultation with the related people has already been conducted at the provincial and district levels from the beginning of the project in 2000. For the second stage for the new communes, the public consultation in every commune and the consultation with the local people in the commune have also been conducted during the period of the preparation of Feasibility Study in 2002. The local commnune/district authorities have also signed the drawings. The original EIA was sent to concerned PPC for clearance and to DoSTE for public display in December 2000. Public participation for the project was conducted during the period from May 2002 to August 2002. Public participation was carried out by means of holding talks and sending out investigation forms. Consultants from EVN have met with representatives of local Government (Commune, district, Provincial People's Conmmittees), local people association such as Women Union, Farmer association etc. in the Project area to inform and receive their comments on three main issues: Inform local people on the policy applied for the Resettlement and Compensation; Receive comment of local people on the Resettlement Action Plan; and * Environmental and Socio-economic impact of the project to the local people. In the construction phase PC2 and PMU will continue proper programs on public Consultation following the Guidelines of the WB and GOV. Conclusions From the EIA study it may be concluded that the RE Project (Phase II) in the Southern Provinces may create some negative impacts on natural environment and socio-economy. These impacts are clearly assessed in the Report. The Project investor (PC2) will implement all effective measures recommended in EMP to mitigate the negative impacts, possible created by the Project. Page viii September 2003 Project Managemiient Unit - PC2 EIA - Rural Energy Protect I Phase 11 1 Introduction 1.1 Report Objectives The Vietnam Rural Energy Project (REP) (Phase II) - Southern Regions (hereafter "the Project") is to bring electricity to help people in the remote rural areas in the Southern provinces for development of the soclo-economy. This project is following the program of the Government to supply electricity to 100% of districts and 80% of communes in the year of 2000. The Project is to distribute electricity to 63 communes of the eight provinces in the South of Vietnam. The provinces in the project are located in the Central Highland (i.e. Lam Dong), the Northeast Mekong Region (Dong Nai and Binh Phuoc) and Mekong River Delta (Tra Vinh, Soc Trang, Kien Giang, Bac Lieu and Ca Mau). According to the guideline of the former Ministry of Science, Technology and Environment (MoSTE) of Vietnam, the projects in substation and transmission line development are classified as the projects of Class II. For projects of Class II, it is not required to have EIA reports but the "Registration to Meet the Environment Standards" is needed. However, according to the policies of the World Bank (WB) this type of projects is classified as the project of the Category B, which needs to have an Environmental Impact Assessment Report. Therefore, this EIA report is prepared following the WB guideline, in order to focus on the following objectives: * 4ssess the current environment status of the regions, where the project components are located. * Identfv potential impacts on the environment of the proposed activities of the project during tlhepre-construction, construction and operation phases. * Screen and assess the impacts (in this EIA the negative impacts are main focuses for assessment). * Analjse alternatives of the project. Develop an appropriate Environmental Management Plan (EMP). including measures for mitigation of the negative impacts and monitoring programs during the pre-construction. const-uction, and operation phases. * Propose a process for public consultation and information dissemination for the project 1.2 Methodology Applied in this EIA From the technical aspects and location of the project, it is expected that the impacts of the project on the environment may not be complicated. Therefore, the method applied in this EIA is mainly based on judgment, checklist, matrix and network. No environmental model is necessary for quantification After screening the potential impacts, these impacts were assessed and classified In thls study, the anticipated negative environmental impacts are classified into four categories major", intermediate", "minor", and practically "not significant". * A "major inipact" can destroy an element of the environment or create a strong environmental modification. Such an impact can strongly affect an environmental component if it is impossible to adopt adequate mitigation measure. * An "intermiediate impact" may partially reduce a value or use of an environmental component and affect a limited portion of the population. * A "minor impact" may sligltly reduce value or use of an environmental component and slightly affect a small group of the population. Page 1 September 2003 Project Management Unit - PC2 EIA - Rural Energy Project I Phase 11 Some activities of the project may not have evident negative impacts In such cases, the assessment will not be detailed but some commentaries will be given. This type of illpact is identified as "tnot sigoiificatlion" Based on the impact classification in the Environmental Management Plan different measures will be recommended to mitigate different types of impacts. No significant impacts These impacts do not need to have measures for mitigation. Minor impacts: For this type of impacts, the appropriate measures for mittigation should be developed. Major and Intermediate impacts: It is necessary to have more detailed information and quantification of tmpacts, and measures for mitigation have to be designed more carefully during project preparation and construction.

The location of the 63 communes of the project is shown in Figures 3.1 - 3.8 of Appendix 1. 3.3 Basic Content of the Project 3.3.1 Project Socio-economic Objectives Together with the high-voltage T/L 500 kV from the North to the South of Vietnam, the rural energy (Phase II) project for the South of Vietnam is to meet the power demand of people in the remote areas. At the present time, the electric network of 22kV and 35kV are connected and distributed to almost all of the districts in the South of Vietnam. The electric networks of 15KV had been developed for meeting the power demand, which is increasing in the process of economic development. A resolution of the Vietnam Government dated September 21, 1996 decided that the target up to the 2000s was to distribute electricity to 80% of communes and 100% of the districts in the whole country. The project in the period 2002 -2003 is targeted to: * Supplying electricit) to the 63 rural villages consisted of tens of thousands of households for development of the economy, culture and society. * Supplying electricity to helping rural people in poverty alleviation and linmitanlon the difference between city anld rural areas. 3.3.2 Projects Main Technical Features The project is proposed for supplying the electricity to 63 communes of 8 provinces in the South of Vietnam in the period 2002 to 2003. Scope of the project is given in Table 3.1.

In the Pre-construction Phase To install the transmission lines the safe corridor has a width of 4.Om for MV poles and 2.Om for LV poles (Figures 3.1 and 3.2). Vertical distance from the lines to top of trees is not less than 2m. Therefore, in the pre-construction phase at the designed safe corridor all 4m - higher trees and all wooden trees in the corridor will be cut. To construct the corridor all houses, shops, building facilities located in the safety distance should be removed partly or-fully. Some areas of agricultural and residential lands will be used for construction of transmission lihes and substations. According to a calculation of PC2, total houses to be rebuilt is 290 and the number of houses partly impacted is 1,178; total area of land used for the corridor is 7,925,588 m2 (Table 3.2). Accordmngto resul-ts f the field surveys conducted by PC2 in 2002, no part of the natural forests and protected areas and nor- any historical, cultural, religious sites are located in the designed safe corridor (Right of Way - ROW) anid substations of the projects. Page 7 September 2003 Project Management UnLt - PC2 EIA - Rural Energy Ptoject I I'lPase 11 In the Construction Phase Along ROW ten poles in each commune will be erected. They may be three-phase MV Mixed LV pole, LV pole sizes and safe distances of which are shown in Figures 3.9 and 3.10. Substations will be installed on some poles (Figure 3 11) To erect the poles some construction activities will be done excavating a hole with 2000 iun in depth, 1700 mm width or 1500 mm in depth, 1200 mm in width for fixing three-phase MV poles or LV poles, respectively, in ground; disposal of waste excavated earth, and transport of construction materials and poles. ROW in most commnunes is designed along the existing commune's roadside to minimize encroachment onto protected sites residential and agricultural land and to easily supply electricity for households. The electric lines will be installed on the erected poles. In the Operation Phase In this phase cutting trees encroached to the safe distance of the corridor will be done, maintaining poles and substations will be regularly carried out. From the above-described activities the project may not create serious (major) impacts on the natural and socio-economic environment (see Section Five). 3.3.4 Socio-economic Benefits of the Project The project will play an important role for assuring "Action Program of the Electricity of Vietnam" that by the year 2005, 100% of rural and mountainous commnunes will be electrified and 80% of their population will be demand in electrical supply. The project will satisfy the electricity requirement of the 63 communes in the period 2003-2010. Electric source to be provided by this project is: * In 2003: 58,923,000 kwh * In 2005: 91,316,000 kwh * In 2010: 144,592,000 kwh This may contribute to the solution of rural energy demand of 8 provinces (Table 3.3). Therefore, the socio-economic benefits of the project are great. This will strongly promote economic development in the rural area of the Southem provinces. 3.4 Proposed Schedule of the Project According to the PC2 plan project preparation should be completed in April 2002, design and draft F/S, RAP, EIA should be completed in August 2002; approval on F/S, RAP, EIA by the WVorld Bank and EVN in November 2002; construction activities will be from February to September 2003 and Commission will be in May to October 2003. However, this implementations schedule was delayed 3.5 Cost of the Project Total cost for the project is estimated at 363,845 million VND or 23.781 million IUSD. This includes: * Foreign capital: 232,156 mUil. VND or 15.174 mll. USD * Donmestic capital: 131.689 nilm. I'ND or 8.607 mnil.

In the project, 8 provinces with their rural and mountainous communes will have investment for electrification. They include: Lam Dong, Binh Phuoc, Dong Nai, Tra Vinh, Soc Trang, Kien Giang, Bac Lieu and Ca Mau. These 8 provinces are located in three different eco-geographical regions: the Central Highland, the Northeast Mekong and the Mekong Delta. Based on the reports on State of the Environment of Vietnam prepared by the fonner MoSTE as well as by DoSTEs and data of various research projects general charactenstics of the natural environment and socio-economic conditions of each region and province are briefly described below. Some information on each commune where the project will be implemented is also given. 4.1 Lam Dong Province 4.1.1 Present State of the Environment of Lam Dong Province Lamn Dong province has an area of 9,765 km2, consisting of two bazaltic plateaus: Lamvien at the Northeast and Dilinh at the Southwest. The average elevation of Lamvien is about 800-1 000m; and of Dilinh is 500-600m. In the territory of the province, there are various high mountains with peaks over 1,200m. Lam Dong is such a place with two major rivers of the Dongnai-Saigon System originating from here: River Langa from the Dilinh plateau and River Dongnai from the Lamvien plateau. These rivers flow across various districts and cities of the province and discharge their water to the Trian Reservoir in Dong Nai province. In the province two distinct seasons occur: the rainy season lasting from May to November and the dry seasc6n lasting from December to April next year. In the rainy season, over 80% of the average annual rainfall occurs (1,750 mm), causing floods at some places, particularly in the Southwest districts. In the dry season serious draughts sometimes occur, creating great constraints on agriculture. Lam Dong is rich m natural resources. Besides a large area of fertile bazaltic soils suitable for growth of industnal trees (coffee, tea, rubber, cashew, etc), and minerals (Kaolinite, Bauxite, 'Zink), the province has a large area of natural and planted forests which occupies 35% of the total provincial area. In the province there are two natural reserves: Bidoup - Nui Ba (73,972 ha) and Daibinh Mountain (5,000 ha); three wetland sites (reservoirs Dankia, Tuyenlam, Danhinm); and one National Park (Cat Tien - 38,900 ha, in which over 10,000 ha is located in LIam Dong). Detailed information of the conservation areas is indicated in Appendix 2. Although rich in natural resources, but with lowv development in industry, service, tourism and education, Lam Dong is still a poor province. Total population of the province is 1.100.000 inhabitants (2002), in which the Kinh ethnic group occupies over 60%. Other ethnic groups are KiHo. M'Nong, Churu (native) and Nung, Dao, Thai, Tay, Muong (iimmigrants from the Northern provinces). The major economic sector is agriculture (coffee, tea and rubber production). Other important sectors are tourismi and small industry, The GDP/capita of Lami Dong is 250 USD (2002). Page 10 September 2003 Project Management Unit - PC2 EIA - Rural E nergy Protect I Phase 11 The poorest areas in Laml Dong province are remote mounltainious ones, where electricity is not yet supplied. The etinic minorities live in remote area, far from towns. Their major income comes from agriculture. Their education is low: fewv of themii get university education. At present, most of the houselholds of K'Ho, M'Nong, Churu,,Tay, Nung, Muong, Dao are poor 4.1.2 Present Environment and Socio-Economy of Three Communes in Lam Dong Three communes belonging to the Project are: B'La (District Bao lam), Tan Lac (District Bao Lam), and Da K'Nang (District Lam Ha). B'La and Tan Lac are located on Dilini Plateau and Da K'Nang is located on Lamvien Plateau. They have good quality land suitable for agriculture, water and air pollution does not occur. All three communes are mountainous but have no natural reserve or protected site located in their territory. General information on soclo-economy of the three conmmunes is given in Table 4.1.

Topographically, the province may be divided Into two parts: the Northeast part is upland with an average elevation of 100-ISOm, the Southwest part is flat lowland with an average elevation of 20-50m. The main rivers in Dong Nai are Langa, Dongnai and Thivat. Like Lain Dong, climate in Dong Nat is tropical moonsoon. Average annual rainfall is 1,700mun, 85% of which occurs in the rainy season. Dong Nai is rich in water, soil and mineral resources. In the 60h decade of the last century forest cover in Dong Nai was 60%. It is now only 25%. In the province there is one National Park (Cat Tien) in the boundary with Lam Dong and Binh Phuoc provinces and one wetland site (Tri An Reservoir, 32,000 ha) (Appendix 2). Due to rapid industrial and urban development in the situation of limited infrastructure facilities environmental pol]ution, particularly air and water pollution at the urban and industrial areas, is significant. Dong Nlai has a population of 2,015,000 inhabitants (2002), annual population growth rate is 1.6%, (during the period 1998 - 2002). Located near Hochiminh City and in the Southeni Economic Focal Zone, Dong Nat is one of the most economically developed provinces of Vietnam. In the province, there are over 10 industrial parks with over 500 plants and thousands of small industrial units. Agricultural sector, mainly, industrial trees is also developed. However, the remote rural districts and commiiunes in the Northeast part (Long Khanh, Xuan Loc, Dinh Quan, Tan Phu districts) are still poor, where electric supply is limited. 4.2.2 Present Environment and Socio-economy of the Communes in the Project In Dong Nai province only two commnunes will receive investmient from the protect. They are Xuan Thien (Long Khanh District) and Ngoc Dinh (Dinh Quan District) Xuan Thien does not have Page 11 September 2003 Project Managenment Unit - PC2 EIA - Rural Energy Project I P'liase 11 forest or wetland area, Ngoc Diih has an area of planted Forest and a part of the Than Reservoir, but it does not relate to the Cat Tien National Park (Appendix 2) The main features of thc present socio- economy of the two communes are showni in Table 4,2.

Most of the area of the province has an average elevation of 50-1 OOm above sea level. Some mountains in the province have peaks of 200-736m. The main soil groups are bazaltic occurring in the Northeast, grey and alluvial soils in the Southwest, suitable for growth of industrial trees. Climate in Binh Phuoc is similar to that in Dong Nal and Lam Dong: high rainfall in the rainy season and draught in the dry season. The major river in the province is Be, on which there are several reservoirs constructed (Thac Mo, Cau Don), or planned to be constructed (Phumieng) for hydropower plants. Binh Phuoc is rich in mineral resources (limestone, bentonite, clay) and also biological resources. Before 1970 the total area of natural forest was 400,000 ha (58% of the provincial area). However, in 2002 the area of natural and planted forest was under 100,000 ha, excluded are hundreds of thousand ha of rubber, cashew and coffee. In the province there is one Natural Reserve (Bu Giarnap, 22,330 ha) and a part of the Cat Tien National Park (Appendix 2). Binh Phuoc has a population of 690,000 inhabitants (2002) with over 20 ethnic groups: Kinh, Stieng, Churu, M'nong (native) and Dao, Nung, Tay, That, Khmer, H'mong, Hoa. At present, Binh Phuoc is the poorest province in the Northeast Mekong Region. The major econonic sectors are agriculture (mdustrial trees), rubber processing, and hydropower. The average 6DP/capita is 260 USD (2002). 4.3.2 Present Environment and Socio-Economy of the 14 Communes in the Project Area In Binh Phuoc, 14 communes will have investment of the project. All of them are located in the remote rural area (Figure 3.3 in Appendix ]). In these 1 4 communes there are no protected or narural reserve sites Dakl Nhau is the commune nearest to the Bu Gianmap Natural Reservc but the dtstance is over 20 km (Appendix 2).

Adapted from F/S Repon of PC2, 2003 4.4 Environment and Socio-economy of the Project Sites in the Mekong Delta 4.4.1 General Information on the Environment and Socio-economy of the Provinces in the Mekong Delta In the Mekong Delta there are 44 communes of 5 provinces (Bac Lieu, Ca Mau, Soc Trang, Tra Viinhi and Kien Giang) that will have investment from the project for rural electnfication. Four provinces (Bac Lieu, Ca Mau, Soc Trang, Tra Vinh) are located in the Eastern coastal zone, and Kien Glano province is located in the Western coastal zone of the Delta. Due to the conditions of the narural environment and socto-economy being quite similar between the five provinces, description abouLt each province is not necessary, but general environmental charactenstics of the whole Delta are briefly described below. The Mekong Delta has an area of over 3.9 million ha, including 12 provinces wvith a total population of 18.5 nmillion inhabitants (2002). The Mekong Delta lies entirely within the hot moonsoon climate. The air circulation over the Delta is dominated by the North-East (NE) and South-WNest (SWV) monsoons, \wich i results in two distinct seasons, separated by sort transition periods. The dry season lasts from November to April and the rainy season lasts from May to October. Page 13 September 2002 Project Management Unit - PC2 EIA - Rural Energy Projcet I l'hase IJ The total average annual rainfall in the different provinces of the Delta range from less than 1,400 to almost 2,400 mm1l. In Soc Trang. Tra Vinh, Bac Lieu rainfall is only 1,400-1,500 mmi1 but in Ca Mau and Kien Giang it is over 2,000 mm. About 85% of the total annual rainfall occurs in the rainy season. In the Mekong Delta the annual average temperature varies little in the different areas, ranging from over 26 to over 27 C Interaction of such factors as the alluvial sediment composition, climate, hydrology, topograplhy and vegetation has formed the different soils in the Mekong Delta. Based on the obtained data, the soils in the Delta may be classified into eight main units: sandy soils, saline soils, acid sulphate soils, alluvia soils, peaty and mud soils, grey soils, red yellow soils, eroded soils. In Tra Vinh, Soc Trano, Ca Mau and Bac Lieu provinces saline and acid sulphate soils largely occur. In Kieri Giang, saline soil is dominant along the coast,. and at the border to Cambodia grey and eroded soils are common. All communes of the project have great problems with acid sulphate and/or saline soils and 'acidic or saline water impacted on cultivation and domestic water supply. The amount of water flowing into the Delta depends greatly on the discharge of the upstream Mekong. The water entering the Mekong Delta (14,800m3/s is the average) flows through a dense network of branching nvers. In the flood season (July-October) the discharge of the Mekong River is over 40,000 m;/s, but it is only 2,000 m3Is in the driest months (February-April). In the flood season (September, October) a great area of the Mekong Delta is inundated. In the project area the province strongly affected by flooding is Kien Giang. The Mekong Delta is rich in biological resource. In the region there are three National Parrks (Tram Chim, 7612 ha; U Minh Thuong, 8509 ha, U Minh Ha, 3394 ha) and various wetland sites in Ca Mau, Bac Lieu and Kien Giang. In the Mekong Delta, beside the Kinh (ethnic majority), there are two ethnic gzroups with high population: Chinese (Hoa), Khmer. Chinese live mainly in towns, but Khmers live mainly in rural areas of Tra Vinh, Soc Trang, and Kien Giang provinces. This project will support rural areas, particularly areas where a great number of Khmers are living. The Mekong Delta is the largest agncultural region of Vietnam. Its annual rice and aquacultural production are I S mil ton and 0.8 mil ton, respectively. In recent years, industry and service sectors in the Delta are rapidly developed with growth rate 15-20 %/year. However, the Mekong Delta is still one of the poor regions of Vietnam, particularly the provinces of Tra Vinh, Soc Trang, and Bac Lieu (locations of the project) GDP/capita of the provinces are: Tra Vinh 320 USD, Soc Trang 350 USD, Bac Lieu 250 USD, Ca Mau 350 USD and Kien Giang 400 USD (2002). All communes related to the project in the Mekong Delta have similar characteristics in climate, hydrology and socio-economy and all of them are not located near the natural reserve areas (Appendix 2). Some information on socio-economy of the communes in the Mekong Delta is given in Table 4 4 In general, all the communes are located far from towns. The mator economic sectors are agricultural, and living conditions of peoples m these communes are significantly increased. However, they sntll belong to the poor conmmunes in the Mekong Delta.

The cost of land in the electrified communes will increase. * The project will promote industrialization and urbanization in the rural area. Consequently, this will promote socio-economnic growth in the remote rural communes in the South Vietnam. With this positive impact, the life of the majority of local households will be significantly improved. This project will play a great role in the development of not only energy, but also local education and culture, which are still poorly developed in the rural area of 8 provinces in the project site Promotion of Economy Agriculture, aquaculture and industry in the 63 communes will be strongly promoted. All planned projects for socio-economic development in the 8 provinces will have a good chance for implementation. Enhancement of Woman Roles in the Societ' The project will not specifically focus on the roles of local women in the society. However, with the expected economic Improvement created by the project, participation of women, particularly women of minor ethnic groups in Lam Dong, Binh Phuoc provinces and in the Mekong Delta into the socio- economy and public activities will be promoted. Opportunities for women in education, culture and general employment will be significantly improved by the enhancement and further development of the local infrastructure. Changes in Employment Opportunity Construction of the electric network in 63 communes will provide significant temporary employment for local labourers and construction workers. A lot of villagers will be enrolled in the construction phase. The existing rural settlements may be expected to become more urban in character during operation period. Therefore, it may be concluded that positive impacts of the project are expected to be much higher than any potential losses caused by the negative impacts on local socio-economy and on the natural environment. Detailed assessment of the above anticipated impacts is given in Sections 5.2; 5.3 and 5.4. 5.2 Impacts Associated with the Pre-construction Phase In this phase of the project, the project activities in preparation of ROW will create significant impacts on the households who will lose partly or totally housing facilities or lands for the preparation of ROW. Due to the number of the project affected households (PAHs) will be high, this impact is assessed as "intermediate". 5.2.1 Statistic of PAHs and Assets Affected by the Project Number of PAHs According to results of the PC2's survey programs in 63 communes of 8 provinces total number of PAHs is 9,0841; total affected persons is 47,195; in which * Tra Vinh has 1,763 PAHs with 9,697 persons * Soc Trang has 85 PAHs witl .468 persons * Kien Giang has 521 PAHs with 866 persons * Bac Lieu has 1,248 PAHs with 7,062 persons Page 22 September 2003 Project Management Unit - PC2 EIA - Rural Energy Pioject I Phase II Ca Mau has 2.565 PAHs with 14,108 persons Lam Dong has 1,006 PAHs with 5.530 persons Binh Phuoc has 1.255 PAHs with 6,903 persons * Dong Nat has 102 PAMHs with 561 persons Classification of PAHs by Affected Categories Identification of categories is given by EVN Based on the field surveys the classification of PAHs according to categories is given as follows Category) PAH affected temporaril; witil agricultural -forest land 1, 1 98 PAHs belong to Category 1, in which Kien Giang has 297 PAHs Bac Lieu has 537 PAHs Ca Mau has 157 PAlis Lamn Dong has 207 PAHs Category 2 PAH onlb affected temporanly on residential and planting land without houses anzd/or structure located in ROW 5,752 PAHs belong to Category 2, in which Tra Vinh has 1,763 PAHs Soc Trang has 41 PAHs Kien Giang has 500 PAHs Bac Lieu has 1,129 PAlIs Ca Mau has 653 PA-Hs Lam Dong has 309 PAHs Binh Phuoc has 1.255 PAHs Dong Nai has 102 PAHs Category 3 PAH with their houses withi tihe ROW must be removed, housing area need to be removed < 25% the iotal housing area- 988 PAHs belong to Category 3, in which Tra Vinh has 106 PAHs Soc Trang has 81 PAHs Kien Giang has 116 PAHis Ca Mau has 598 PAHs Lam Dong has 23 PAHs Binh Phuoc has | 64 PAHs Category 4 PAHs lose >25% of their house or less but with irreparable damoges to the house portion left standing Thie lost house area will be rebuilt in adjacent areas already owned bY the PAHs 290 PAHs belong to Caiegory 4. in which Kien Giang has 97 PAHs Bac Lieu has P 43 PASers Ca Mau lias 50 PAHs Page 23 September 2003 Project Manageement Unit - PC2 EIA - Rural Energy Pioject I I-liase 11 Categoriv 5 PAHs with tlieii hIOuSL.% wihlini tle ROW niust be remnoved. housing area reynove'd > 25% iotal overall houSing area or < 25% total overall houtsing areal huti par!

Socio-economic Condition of Ethnic Minorities The ethnic minorities in the project areas live in groups. Their main economic activities are on rice cultivation (Khmer), industrial tree cultivation, forestry (Stieng and K'Ho) and small industry and trade (Chinese) Kh'mers, K'Hos, Tays, Nungs, Muongs, Stiengs live closely with nature. Their lives greatly depend on the natural environment. At present, their living standards are low, due to low productivity in agriculture, forestry and less development of industry service and education. Chinese mainly live and work in towns. Their income is high and stable. Most ethnic minorities maintain their traditional cultures. Ethnic people have their own languages. However, most of them can speak the national Vietnamese language. To support economic and educational development for the ethnic minorities is priority in socio- economic policies of the Government of Vietnam. The Government and local authorities create various programs to improve economy, health care, education and poverty alleviation for areas where is location of minor ethnic groups, particularly Kh'mers, K'Hos, Stiengs, Tays, Nungs etc. Therefore, at present socio-economic conditions of the ethnic minorities in the Central Highland and the Mekong Delta are greatly increased. This project of rural electrification is aimed to support K'Ho, Kh'mers and all peoples in 63 project communes improvement of their lives. * Household characteristics: The average number of people per household is 6.5, higher than that of the whole country (4.97) as an ethnic family usually comprises several generations Most households are headed by men. * Education: About 100% household heads are literate, of which 93% finished primar'] level, 7% recorded secondary level. * Housing condition .Accordmg to Vietnamese House Classification, 5% of houses of Kh'mers and K'Hos is of class 4 and 95% is temporary houses. * Arable land: Beside the ROW and garden area (about 400.800m2 households) around ethnic people's houses, there are agricultural land. Cultivation in this area is mainly on rice, maize, cashew trees (Stieng, Tay, Nung, K'Ho). Each households has 2,000-10,000m2 (Kh'mers) and 5,000-20,000m2 (K'Hos, Stiengs). * Domestic amenities: Modern domestic facilities are still low: only 7% of households have TV sets, 10% of households have motorbikes, 70% of households have bicycles. Most of households in the project's communes do not have electricity supply.

No house or cultural sites of ethnic communities will be affected by ROW. Inpact on permanent land acquisition Most ethnic PAHs have large arable land (2,000-20,000m2), thus the 3-6m2 for each electric pole foundation is quite small compared to the total arable area of the PAHs Therefore, this will not influence PAHs' long-term revenue Impact on crops and trees Ethnic people's cultivation is mainly on nce, corn and industnal trees, and fruit trees Area and number of trees to be cut are small (Table 5.6) From the data obtained by the socio-economic study teams comparmg with the calculated PAHs and land areas of the EMs to be lost for the Project it is assessed that the Project will mainly create good condition for the EMs in the provmces, its impacts on EM's PAH are expected but minor and mitigable Table 5.6: Number of EM PAH in the project's province Province [ Commune No of EM PAH No of Affected Person Name of EM TRAVINH I Nguyet Hoa 12 65 Kh'me SOCTRANG Vinh Chau 13 82 Kh'me.

Binh Phuoc, Dong Nai and mangrove forests In Bac Lieu, Ca Mau and Kien Giang However, after 30 years, toxic chemical residues with evident amounts in all project's communes do not occur, all CS-containers have been removed and detoxified Therefore, impacts by toxic chemicals on the project preparation for ROW are not expected The problem to be considered is residue of explosive materials, including mines and cannon ball in the communes of Binh Phuoc and Lam Dong which may occur This problem may cause damage to Page 28 September 2003 Project Management Unit - PC2 EIA - Rural Energy Project I Phase II health of construction workers Therefore. during the ROW preparation PC2 will collaborate with the Provincial Military Engineering Corp to determine location and remove all explosive materials At present, explosive materials do not exist in the communes in the Mekong Delta 5.3 Impacts Associated with the Construction Phase Dunng the construction phase the expected potential environmental impacts are identified in Section 5 1.2 The identified environmental impacis are assessed as negative. However, thel' will be short-term, local, minor and mitigable. due to the construction activities will only occur in a short duration and scales ofconstruction (erection ofpoles and substation) are small The main impacts are assessed as follows 5.3.1 Impacts on Air Quality In the construction phase air pollution is produced by dust (total suspended particulate, TSP), toxic gases (SO2, NOx, CO, volatile organic compounds- VOC) from construction equipment and earth works. The major air pollutant m construction phase will be dust produced by earth works (diggmg, excavating, filling, levelling), using motonzed machmes The affected receptors are areas surrounding the construction sites, as well as houses, cultural, religious buildmgs located at a distance of about 50m from the construction site At this distance in the dry season and at the peak construction hours, ambient air quality may be degraded However, number of truck and/or construction machines used for excavating pole's foundation are small so the impact of air pollution on these types of receptors is minor According to monitoring dala at various construction siles in Vietnam in thle normal weather conditions, tflis impact on air quality is only local (only evident at and nearby thle construction sites) and temporary (only in the construction period) 5.3.2 Noise and Vibration Impacts During the Construction Phase Noise Impact According to monitonng data, the present noise levels m the rural areas in the project site are low and meet the Vietnam Noise Standards (TCVN 5949-1995) (Table 5 7) Table 5 8 shows ambient air values recommended by The World Bank (WB) Companson between WB guidelines and Vietnam loise Standard shows that for the same norm (commercial area) of Vietnam Standard is stricter Used of Vietnam Standard will meet the WB guidelines Table 5.7: (TCVN 5949-1995) Vietnamese Permissible Noise Level in public and residential area (in dBA) Area Penod of Time From 6h-18h From 18h-22h From 22h-6h Areas needing special low noise (Hospitals, libraries sanatona, kindergartens, schools) 50 45 40 Residential area (Hotels, administration offices, apartment houses etc 60 55 45 Commercial and service areas 70 70 50 Small industnal factories in residential areas 75 70 50 Source MoSTE.

Construction activities will contribute to noise pollution at the construction and surrounding sites. During the construction phase noise pollution may be caused by: * Construction equipment * Earth excavating activity * Generators (if any) * Vehicles used for material and pole transport According to data of the Federal Highway Administration (FHA) of the USA the A-weighted sound level ranges of construction equipment are given in Table 5.9. Table 5.9: Sound levels ranges of construction equipment Equipment Noise Level at 15 m (dBA) Regulation of the General Service Administration (USA) Pile drivers (peak level) 90-104 95 Jackhammers and drills 76-99 75 Trucks 70-96 75 Front loaders 72-96 75 Compactors (rollers) 72-88 75 Backhoes 72-93 75 Tractors 73-96 75 Scrapers, graders 77-95 75-80 Pavers 82-92 80 Concrete mixers 71-90 75 Movable cranes 75-95 75 Generators 70-82 75 Vibrators 70-80 75 Source FHA Noise level of special construction activities are evaluated as follow: Earth moving activity: The work will require some types of machines, including trucks for earth excavating and moving. -Noise from this equipment can reach 90 dBA each at 15 meters distance. If the noise at receptors is too high, measures will be taken in order to protect sensitive receptors from noise impact. The time of Page 30 September 2003 Project Management Unit - PC2 EIA - Rural Energy Project I Phase Il work should be appropriate to the receptors As the site is very small, earthworks will be generally limited, there fore noise impact is assessed as minor and local. Vibration Impact During construction, the major potential vibration sources are material transport activity However, this impact will be minior and short-ternm. 5.3.3 Acidification In this construction phase at each commnune various poles will be erected. Volume of earth to be excavated is 8m3 for 3 phase MV pole and 6.4m3 for LV pole. Amount of waste (redundant) earth in 0.3m3 for each MV pole and 0.72m3 for each LV pole. In communes at Tra Vinh, Soc Trang, Kien Giang and Bac Lieu (in the Mekong Delta), a large area of acid sulphate soils occur. In case of disposal of waste earth, containing acid materials into surrounding, acidification may be created when pyrite (FeS2) in the soil will be exposed to the air and water. The conversion of ferrous sulphate to ferric sulphate occurs very slowly below pH4, but is rapid m the presence of microbial catalysts such as iron-oxidizing bactena, which can mcrease the rate of oxidation a million-fold. According to a Study of NEDECO for the WrB's Project of Rehabilitation of the Inland Waterway Transport in the Mekong Delta (1999) from 1m3 of severe ASS 20-60 moles of acid may be created when it will be exposed to the air and water. Run-off water may transport acidic materials to rivers, canals or ponds causing water acidification. A high acidity (low pH) can kill shrimp and fish. Generalized short-term effects of acidity upon fish according to Wellburn (1988) are shown in Table 5.10. Table 5.10: Short-term effect of acidity on fish species pH range Effect 6.5-9.0 No effect 6.0-6.4 Unlikely to be harmful/except when C02 level are very high (> 1000 mg/L) 5.0-5.9 Not especially harmful except when C02 levels are high (>20 mg/L or ferric irons are present 4.5-4.9 Harmful to the eggs of salmon and trout species and to adult fish when Ca2+, Na+ and Cl- are low 4.0-4 4 Harmtul to adult fish of many types 3 5-3.9 Lethal to salmonids 3.0-3 4 Most fish are killed within hours Source: Wellburn (1988) Because a large proportion of the excavated soil will be re-used for site construction and will be compacted and covered by sand, stone, and concrete, acidic materials will not greatly leak into rice fields, aquacultural ponds or canals. Therefore, the impact of qcidification on water quality caused by excavation of acid sulfate soils for making foundations of poles in the communes in the Mekoong Delta will not be a serious problem. However, various proper measuresfor acidification prevention. control will be applied (Sectioni 6) In the communes of /lhe Laoi Dong, Dong Noi, Bin/i Phiuoc. acid sulfate soils do not occur, therefore acidfication caused by; eor/i eaxcovation is not expected. Page 31 September 2003 Project Management Unit - PC2 EIA - Rural Energy Project I Phase 11 5.3.4 Impacts Associated With Worker Concentration During the construction phase in each commune about 5-10 construction workers will work. The following impacts may be contemplated. Environmental Pollution Environmental pollution will be a problem at the camping sites, where domestic waste will be created. Average amounts of waste to be daily produced by a group of 5 workers is estimated as follows. * Daily domestic wastewater: about 0.5-1.0 m3 * Daily domestic solid wastes: about 5-10 kg This amount of domestic wastes is small but it is necessary to be considered in management of sanitation during construction activity at each commune. Possible Transmission of Infections Diseases from Workers to Local Population and Vice Versa In the remote rural communes in eight provinces of the project communicable diseases, such as water- born diseases (diarrhoea, dysentery, typhoid fever), vector-born diseases (Dengue fever, Malaria) are still common. In the circumstance of low sanitary conditions and daily contact between local people and construction workers, infections diseases may be transmitted from workers to local people and vice versa. However, transmission of infection diseases will not occur if effective mitigation measures will be adopted. Conflict Between Construction Workers and Local People In some cases, conflicts between the construction workers and local people may be caused by the following reasons: * Difference in customs and traditions * Difference in income * Encroachment of workers to historical, traditional sites and customs of local people. However, in the case of this project this problem is not expected, due to the educational programs of the Project Management Unit (PMU) and local authonties will be conducted and local people strongly support this project. 5.3.5 Impacts on Transportation on the Route In the construction phase in each commune, some trucks will be used for transportmg materials and poles. Therefore, construction works may cause some impact on the normal traffic activity at local roads. This activity may affect local traffic during the construction phase. However, number of trucks used for the project at each commune is very small (1, 2 trucks) this impact is assessed as mitior and temporary. 5.4 Impacts Associated with the Operation Phase 5.4.1 Social Development and Poverty Alleviation The Project will provide electricity for tens thousands households in 63 communes of 8 Southern provinces in Vietnam. This provision will greatly help increase economic development and poverty alleviation, two pillars of Vietnamese development policy with the contribution of the project in rural electrification, development of not only agriculture, aquaculture, but also industry, urbanisation and service sector will be induced in these remote areas. This will create good conditions for improvement of life of local peoples particularly ethnic minorities. This impact is considered as being major positive. Page 32 September 2003 Project Management Unit- PC2 EIA - Rural Energy Project I Phase 11 5.4.2 Health and Safety As the voltage of the project is only 35 kV and lower, the magnetic field generated will have no impact on health of people living in or near ROW. Electric shock is a danger for the human life during the operation phase if there is no proper preventive measure, particularly for the people in the remote areas, where people's knowledge about electricity is limited. This impact is minor and mitigable. 5.4.3 Induced Development With the rural electrification in 63 communes remote communes, in the near future several economic sectors: agriculture, aquaculture, industry, trade, tourism, etc. will be rapidly developed. This will create good conditions for increase of income, education, health care for local people. On the other hand, this may cause various environmental problems: water, air pollution, reduction in forest and wetland area, encroachment into natural reserves; shortage in ground water source, change in life style etc. These impacts are expected but may be mitigable by proper policy in sustainable development which will be considered by GOV as well as provincial PCs.

The following analysis was given by EVN: * If diesel or small hydropower plants used, the beneficiaries would be much more limited than the proposed project. * If medium hydropower used, network would still need to be developed. * Wind energy is suitable for only some places along the central coastal zone and islands. * Solar energy would require tremendous investment to support 63 communes. This region has high poverty rate, not suitable for large investment. The most advantageous alternative is to construct the electricity network, due to: The national network grid was already available, therefore it was most cost effective to add to the grid rather than to develop new energy sources. * Network is more reliable - is most common way to utilize energy by grid. * Grid has added benefit of creating infrastructure for installing fibre-optic cables and other communications lines. * Cost for this alternative is lower than the other ones 6.2 Alternatives Within the Project For within the project, the following alternatives were considered: choice of optimal voltage of network, alignment of transmission and distribution lines, access routes for construction and operation, capacity of transformers, and location of substation. Since this project is the second phase of the Rural Energy Project I, one of the criteria in considering the project's alternatives is that its main features need to be consistent with those of the first phase, which have been taken into consideration during the execution of FS, EIA, and Technical Design of the project-Phase 1. 6.3 The "No Project" Alternative If the "No Project" alternative was implemented, 63 communes with tens of thousands of households in the Southern 8 provinces could not access the network for use of electricity. Some of the poorest people in the country's remote areas will not likely have access to electricity of any kind in the near future. This will affect the chances of economic development and poverty alleviation for rural peoples, particularly for minor ethnic groups in the project areas. Page 34 September 2003 Project Managemiient Unit - PC2 EIA - Rural Eneirgy ProtXect I Plhase 11 7 Environmental Management Plan According to the World Bank Operational Policies (OP.4.01, January, 1999) the "Enivironmnental Managemnent Plan (EMP) consists of mzitigalio, monitoring anld institutional measures to be taken during implementation and operation to eliminate adverse environmential and social impacts, offset them, or reduce them to acceptable levels." The World Bank OP.4.0] also considers that "EMP are essential elements of EA reports for Category A projects". The Rural Energy Project (Phase II) does not belongs to Category A but it is also need the following measures recommended by this EIA study to prevent and mitigate potential impacts and to manage the project in the pre-construction, construction and operation phases. 7.1 Mitigation Measures in the Design and Pre-Construction Phase 7.1.1 Limitation of Encroachment Into Densely Populated and Natural, Historical Protected Areas In the F/S the PC2 has selected alignment with minimum encroachment to the existing residential. historical and religious sites. Most of the lines of 1,425 km will be installed along the existing roadsides. There are no churches, temples, pagodas, natural forests, or wildlife sanctuaries at the ROW in 63 communes of the project area that could be encroached upon by construction or operation of the project. However, about 9,841 households in 63 communes will be partly or fully affected by the project. Therefore, appropriate measures for mitigation in socio-economic impacts should be used though a Resettlement Action Plan (RAP). 7.1.2 Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) In principal, the RAP should be prepared by the project based on the Vietnamese legislation and the WB guidelines. The basic guiding principle of the World Bank's policy on Involuntary Resettlement (World BankL OD 4.30) is that the affected people should be "assisted in their efforts to improve their former living standards, income earning capacity, and production levels, or at least to restore them." OD 4.30 further stipulates that absence of legal title to land cannot be considered as an obstacle to compensation and rehabilitation privileges. All persons affected by the project, especially the poorer, land-less and semi-land-less sectors should be included in the compensation, resettlement and rehabilitation package. In recent years, the Government of Vietnam (GOV) has issued various policies, and guidelines for compensationi and support to PAHs in rehabilitation living. Each province, based on the general policy of the Govemment, has its own resettlement policy. To better support PAlis, PC2 has prepared a RAP for this project following the Guidelines of the Government, related provinces combined with the WB polfcies. Applying this RAP the negative impacts on the PAHs are expected to be significantly mitigated. The main items of the RAP are: * Select aligrnment with minimum affect to houses, shops, cultural, historical site * Land acquisition will be minimized * PAlHs will be fairly compensated and supported for loss of land and/or houses. Page 35 September 2003 Project Management Unit - PC2 EIA - Rural Energy Project I Phase 11 Subsidy Allowances Besides the direct compensation for the losses, RAPs are also entitled to subsidies/allowances as stipulated in the Decree No.22. 1998 of Government. Subsidy for house moving (transport allowance) This allowance is for PAPs who are totally impacted on houses and have to be moved to new sites or reorganized to the remaining residential areas: i) PAPs which have to move their houses to new places within the province will be entitled to an allowance from 1,000,000 VND to 3,000,000 VND; ii) PAPs which have to.relocate out of their provinces will be entitled to transport allowance of 3,000,000 VND to 5,000,000 VND. This subsidy allowance is for the transportation of their salvageable matenals and living facilities. Relocation subsidyfor resettlement This subsidy allowance is a food allowance for PAPs who are totally impacted on house and therefore have to reconstruct their new houses. Each member of.PAP will be subsidized 30kg of rice (equivalent) /month for six months. Allowance for PAPs have person getting social subsidy by GOV If PAPs have to be relocated will be subsidized with an allowance of 1,000,000 VND. Timel)' movement incentive PAPs who relocate on timely manner will get a maximum bonus of 5,000,000 VND/household. Rehabilitation allowance PAPs, who are permanently affected more than 25% of productive land or incomes, will be entitled to training 1,000,000 VND/ person. According to the result of PC2 inventory, there are no PAPs who would be permanently affected more than 25% of their total productive land or income resources. Therefore, the economic restoration program is not required. However, if the designs have been changed in the detail design phase and there are PAPs permanently affected more than 25% of their incomes, the proposal for rehabilitation program will be developed by PC2 based on consultation with local authonties and PAPs Compensation Modes * PAHs lose more than 25% of total land can opt land for land or cash for land. * PAHs lose less than 25% of their land, compensation for land will be given m cash. * Compensation for crops will be given in cash at current market rates calculated on the productive average of the last three years. * Compensation for houses, buildings and trees will be provided. in cash at substitution cost rates. General Resettlement Action Plan for the Southern Region of the Project (Phase II) is indicated in Table 7.1. Cost Estimation for RAP Implementation According to PC2 study total cost estimated for the RAP is VND 22,084,270,000 equal to USD 1,424,792.

Therefore, the various following measures should be applied to prevent noise impact from construction equipment and vehicles. Noise Prevention for Sensitive Receptors If the required distance is impossible where construction operation will be necessary, measures of noise prevention for sensitive receptors should be considered: noise generation sources will avoided in the night time and installation of adequate barrier at schools, temples, offices etc. for noise control. Operation of heavy vehicles in the centre of communes must also be properly managed to reduce noise generation, particularly at places near sensitive receptors (churches, schools, temples, offices etc.). 7.2.5 Vibration Control From vibration impact assessment described in Section 5 it is necessary to point out that vibration will be only a minor impact, therefore specific measure for vibration control is not necessary. 7.2.6 Prevention of Labour Accidents and Occupational Health for Construction Workers Besides education for workers in electric safety, installation of adequate construction camps and sanitation facilities for construction workers to control transmission of infections diseases will be necessary. Constructors will provide workers with equipment for noise, vibration and dust control, where and when it is necessary. Medical station at each commune will help construction workers when they will get labour nsks. 7.3 Mitigating Measures in the Operation Phase 7.3.1 Control of Fire Hazards The following measures will be implemented by PC2: * Design substation with fire detection and prevention equipment; * Train workers in fire prevention and fighting; * Conduct regular monitoring of fire prevention compliance 7.3.2 Control of Electric Shock * Distribute educational pamphlets on electrical safety in conmmunes where knowledge of electricity is low. * Place "Danger-Warning" signs at appropriate locations (e.g. foot of poles, substations). * Ensure appropriate specifications for MV and LV lines. * Ensure safety equipment (surge arrestors, lightning arrestors, breakers, insulated wires) are purchased, installed, and maintained. * Provide training for at least one person in each comnmune to assist residents with minor in- house repairs. Page 39 September 2003 Project Management Unit - PC2 7.4 Environmental Monitoring Plan In order to properly control environmental impacts of the project as well as evaluate effectiveness of mitigation measures, some programs of monitoring and oversight of the project will be implemiiented. 7.4.1 Legal and Institutional Backgrounds Legal Documents Monitoring for project implementation is required by the Government of Vietnam as well as the World Bank. The major legal documents related to requirement in environmental monitoring are mdicated as follows. * Environmental Protection Law of Vietnam, issued on 10th January 1994 by Order of the President. * Decree NI 75/CP on 18th October 1994 issued by the Government, guiding implementation of the Environmental Protection Law. * Circular N276-TT/Mtg on 6th March 1997 issued by the Ministry Science, Technology and Environment (MOSTE) guiding implementation of pollution control and environmental monitoring after approval of EIA report * Guideline of World Bank (OD 4.00, October 1989; OD 4.30, OP 4.01, January 1999). Monitoring Agencies In Vietnam, now the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) within MoNRE is responsible for the national wide environmental management including environmental monitoring. A National Monitoring System which has been set up by the former MoSTE from 1994 includes various environmental research centres. These centres carry out monitonng on air, water quality and wildlife in the selected areas and prepare reports to DEP. According to the law, projects and/or companies which may have environmental problems may carry out themselves suitable monitoring programs during construction and operation ("internal monitoring"). At provincial level, Departments of Natural Resources and Environment (DoNRE) are responsible for environmental management for this project m each province. However, "external environmental monitoring" should be done by independent environmental agencies. 7.4.2 Environmental Monitoring Organization During Pre-construction Phase There was not any agency responsible for environmental monitoring in process of F/S stu'dy for this project. During the Construction Phase The Project Management Unit (PMU) of PC2 or Proyincial Power Services (PPS) will be responsible for internal environment monitoring in each province. During Operational Phase The PMU or Provincial Power Services will be responsible for internal environment monitoring. Page 40 September 2003 Project Management Unit - PC2 External environmenl nolniloring for both last plhases will be implemented by an independent environmental monitoring agency which will be selected by the WB and/or provincial DoNRE. Budget for all extemal monitoring programs will be included in loan from WB. 7.4.3 Natural Environmental Monitoring Natural environmental monitoring programs will be implemetited in three phases. Pre-construction, Construction and Operation of the project. Monitoring programs in the Pre-construction phase focus on collecting baseline data on existing environmental conditions at the project sites. Monitoring programs in other phases aim at obtaining sufficient data to precisely evaluate the impact of the project and the effectiveness of the mitigation measures. Air Quality Monitoring Methodology According to MoNRE requirements the standard monitoring equipment and standard methods for air sampling, storage analysis and reporting, are regulated by the Vietnam National Environmental Monitoring System (NEMS); Vietnam Ambient Air Quality Standard (TCVN 5937-1995) will be applied during monitoring in residential areas; Vietnam Standard for Exhaust Emnssions from Vehicles (TCVN 5948-1995) will be applied for monitoring air emission from vehicles. Selected parameters to be monitored Generally, in Vietnam for routine air quality and noise monitoring the following parameter are required: * Temperature, humidity, wind velocity and direction * Dust (as total particulate matter and PM1o) * Sulphur dioxide (SO2) Nitrogen dioxide (NO2) * Carbon monoxide (CO) * Lead (Pb) * Volatile organic compounds (VOC) * Noise In the construction phase, due to air pollution generation sources are too small dust is the major parameter to be monitored. In the pre-construction and operation phases all above-mentioned parameters should not be necessary to be monitored. Location of monitoring sites In the Pre-construction phase: * Air quality monitoring is not necessary. In the construction phase: * At each commune, a -mmimum of two sites will be chosen at receptors nearby the construction site with the highest potential to be affected by construction activities. * Location of the monitoring sites will be mobile depending on construction progress. In the operation phase: * Air quality monitoring is not necessary. Monitoring Frequencj' During the construction phase: Page 41 September 2003 Project Management Unit - PC2 Air quality and noise monitoring will be undertaken two times at each commune and in the event of public complaint. Water Quality Monitoring Due to the project activities almost do not cause significant impact on surface and ground water quality, water quality monitoring is not necessary. Only in cases of acidic leakage from acid sulphate soil disposal sites, which will be very rare case, water quality of the receiving sources will be monitored. In this case, pH, Fe, Al and turbidity are parameters to be selected. Wildlife Monitoring The project will not cause major adverse impacts on terrestrial biological resources. Therefore, monitoring program on terrestrial and aquatic wildlife is not required. 7.4.4 Cost of External Natural Environmental Monitoring Cost of environmental monitoring programmer is estimated as follows. Activity Estimated Cost (in USD) During the Pre-Construction phase Not necessary Dunng the Construction phase Air, noise, vibration monitoring, including travel, accommodation Average: 63 communes * USD 200 12,600 USD Water quality monitoring Not necessary Terrestrial and aquatic organism monitoring Not necessary During the operation phase Not necessary 7.4.5 Monitoring on RAP The implementation of RAP shall be constantly supervised and monitored internally by PC2 and its Provincial Management Unit in co-ordination with local People's Committees and externally by an independent environmental institution. The independent monitoring institution(s) shall be contracted by PC2 immediately after RAP approval and shall begin supervision and monitorng activities from the beginning of the implementation phase. Terms of Reference for independent external monitoring will be prepared by PC2 and then submitted to the World Bank for its concurrence. Internal Monitoring Internal supervision and monitonng include the following activities: * Monitoring the population and the inventory of PAP assets, status, occupations and living conditions and supervising the implementation of compensation, resettlement and rehabilitation for the PAP in the terms agreed by the PAPs. * Monitoring the implementation of resettlement and compensation programs. * Monitoring the availability and quality of replacement land for resettlement. * Assess each case of cornplaint and grievance. * Internal monitonng agencies will prepare a quarterly report on the progress of RAP implementation. Such a report should be made available to GOV authoiities, AB, and external monitoring agency/consultants Page 42 September 2003 Project Management Unit - PC2 Independent (External) Monitoring Beside evaluation the quarterly reports produced by internal monitors and conduct the same kind of investigation assigned to internal monitoring, the external monitoring agency will be responsible for the following duties: * Evaluation of inventory survey and entitlements determination. Check for the unit costs applied in RAP to see if they are still at replacement costs/ market prices at the time of RA-P implementation. Providing recommendation for modification to PC2 if necessary. * Evaluation of socio-econonic project impacts on the PAHs. * Supervision of the implementation of RAP to achieve the objectives of the RAP in particular" to improve or at least maintain the incomes and living conditions of the PAP after the resettlement." * Putting forward the amendments for the implementation of RAP to achieve the objectives of this RAP. * Offering suggestions on how improve RAP programs. * Closely monitoring compensation activities and be prepared to give informed evaluation of complaint and grievances cases. * Write working reports and submitted to PC2 and its PMU and WB. Methodology for external RAP monitoring RAP monitoring will use methodology given in the WB's Guideline. Selected parameters to be monitored Various parameters related with evaluation of RAP implementation will be given in questionnaire prepared by the monitorng institution and approved by the WB' Consultant. Monitoringfrequency RAP extemal monitoring will be conducted in 3 phases of the project: the pre-construction (Housing Removal and Land Clearance Stage), construction and operation phases. Number of PAHs to be monitored in each province will be approved by the WB's Consultants. Coslfo,r the external RAP monitoring This cost will depend on the number of PAHs and location of the communes to be monitored. But it is about USD 35,000-40,000 if number of PAHs to be monitored about 10,000 and all 63 communes will be monitored. This cost includes transport, accommodation, survey and reportmg. 7.5 Institutional Framework for Environmental Management 7.5.1 Project Implementation Framework The institutions and offices responsible for preparation and implementation of the EMP are: * Electricity of Vietnam (EVN) * Power Company No 2 (PC2) * Project Management Unit of PC2 (PMLU) Provincial People's Committee (PPC) * District People Committee (DPC) * Commune People Committee (CPC) .

This includes: Applying construction-phase mitigation measures * Ensuring safety of construction workers and local people during construction * Following Vietnam and World Bank policies on environmental protection dunng construction 7.5.2 Project Monitoring of EMP An independent monitoring consultant (IMC) will be hired by PMB to monitor implementation of the EMP/RAP. 7.5.3 Other EMP Stakeholders Department of Natural Resources and Environment (DoNRE) DoNRE is responsible for state management on environmental issues within each province's terntory. As part of this responsibility, DoNRE will review and manage the GOV's approval process for the EIA report. This process is described in CP 490/1998/TT-BKHCNMT Circularfor Setting Up and Appraising the Environmental Impact Assessment Report for Investment Projects. During EMP implementation, DoNRE will act as extemal regulator. Their duties will include: • Supervising the implementation of mitigation measures to minimize the project impacts in the construction and operation phases. * Managing and checking protection measures for plantations and animal subject to the impact caused by the project. Provincial People's Committee (PPC) The PPC's responsibilities include: * Guiding and monitoring environmental management planning and implementation within the province * Approving method of environmental protection and impact mitigation including estimated costs after DoNRE appraisal Reviewing document on environmental activities and grantmg within the province area * Providing guidance and leading the coordination between sectors and departments in EMP implementation Approving the unit pnce for the compensation * Financing the compensation costs District People's Committee (DPC) The DPC's responsibilities include: Ratifying methods of environmental protection and management * Coordinating with DoNRE on supervision of implementation process of environmental impact mitigation and protection during and after construction phase * Carrying out the detailed measurement survey Communes' People's Committees (CPC) The CPC's responsibilities include: Page 45 September 2003 Project Management Unit - PC2 * Confirming impact caused by the project in the commune * Monitoring environmental impact mitigation and protection process within the conmiune * Organizing meetings at commune level on matters conceming environment Project Affected Households (PAHs) PAHs will directly participate in the survey on PAH duties and entitlements. Through these surveys they will: 1) have the opportunity to express their requirements and concerns to the above institutions; and 2) have input to the method and units of compensation. After compensation is complete, PAHs are responsible for co-operating with Contractor to clear relevant sites in a timely manner. In addition to their own duties and entitlements, PAHs have the right to participate either directly or indirectly in the Project decision-making process during pre-construction, construction, and operation. In order to ensure that PAHs are well informed on the Project, local authorities will provide PAHs with basic knowledge on Project-related activities, and the negative and positive impacts they can have on the natural/social environment. PA-Hs will be allowed to bring legal action to an appropriate court if the PAH considers its claim for participation or information is ignored, groundlessly refused, or if provided information by local authorities was inadequate. 7.6 Environmental Reporting Procedures PMIU will submit Project quarterly reports to the EVN and WB. The reports will include updates on the effectiveness of environmental mitigation measures being carried out, environmental monitoring results collected during the quarter, and a discussion of any outstanding issues which should be addressed in the forthcoming quarter. The format and detail of these reports will be discussed and agreed upon by EVN and WB prior to Project implementation. PMU will submit an annual environmental report to EVN and the WB. The report will summanse environmental protection measures implemented, problems encountered, actions taken to resolve environmental problems and the results of environmental monitoring. IMC will closely monitor the implementation of RAP and EIA. In case of accident or risk of environment. The IMC will report the results of their work every six months during the Project period. The report will be sent to PMU, DoNREs, DPCs and EVN and WB for review. 7.7 Capacity Building Environment management is a relatively new task for the power sector. Therefore, prior to project implementation, there should be training for staff that will participate in EMP. Management staff will be equipped with knowledge on mitigation measures for environmental impact and monitonrng plan. The following training has been conducted to date: 1. 2000: Project Launch Workshop. The main objective was to inform all the implementing agencies on the safeguard policies of the Bank, including the environmental issues of the project 2. May 2002: Training Workshop on the environmental issues, conducted by intemational and national environmental specialists. The objectives of the training were: * . Legal documents on environment protection * WB stipulations on safeguard policies * Responsibilities and rights of state functional bodies in environment management * Identification of typical impacts of power transmission line projects and mitigation measures Page 46 September 2003 Project Management Unit - PC2 3. August 2003: Hands-on learning-by doing training for improving environmental reports. Local and international consultants worked witlh PC2 staff to improve draft EIA and EMP reports. 4. September 2003: Hands-on workshop for environmental assessment of transmission and distribution projects. International and national environmental specialists lead PC2 staff and other participants on a field trip to test new tools for environmental assessment, held group work activities on challenges and opportunities to improve environmental assessment, and held lectures on WB safeguard policies and GOV environmental requirements for the Project. Future training includes the following: 5. Commune-level training: At least one person from a commune will attend a course that will provide training on (i) the basic operation of the power system for the safety of the users of the electricity, (ii) environmental monitoring during the operation of the system to prevent the fire, electric shocks, and maintenance of the ROW. 6. EVN training. Internal training course on how to monitor SEMPs and how to report environmental results as part of quarterly and annual project reports. 7.8 Estimate Cost for the EMP Implementation This section estimates the marginal costs for conducting the EMP's main sub-components: mitigation, monitoring, and capacity building. Costs that are mcurred by other project components but satisfy some aspect of the EMP are not included in this section. The division of costs between EVNI and IDA funds was developed in consultation with EVN. The total marginal cost of the EMP from Pre-construction through to the end of the first year of operation is 194,700 USD (not including contingencies" taxes, or inflation). This amount is about 0.5% of the project's estimated USD 23.78 million budget. EMP costs can be broken down as follows: Pre-Construction (16,700 USD); Construction: (133,600 USD); and Operation 44,500 USD/year.

Bank policy directs the borrower to publicly solicit, hear and consider the concerns of the local community, other affected groups and local NGOs (non-governmental organizations) and to fully incorporate into the design and implementation of the project and the Environmental Assessment (EA). The rationale for consideration and incorporation of the concerns of the affected parties is to assure community acceptance and enhance the viability of the project. The Bank has found that where such views have been successfully incorporated into the design and plan of implementation, the projects are more likely to be successful. The Bank has not found community participation to be an impediment to project execution. On the contrary, projects in which affected parties views have been excluded are more likely to suffer from delay and quality issues resultmg from community resistance. The Environmental Assessment Operational Directive (EA OD) clarifies Bank policy, which for more than a decade has encouraged community participation m Bank-supported projects. Sociological considerations were added to the Bank's operational manual statement on project design and appraisal in 1984 (OMS 2.20), specifying that effective project implementation requires the full commitment of all beneficiaries and associated stakeholders and that to be effective a project appraisal should venrfy that affected parties were fully informed and involved in project identification and preparation. The operational directive on collaboration with non-governmental organizations (NGOs) also urges Bank staff "as a matter of Bank policy" to develop contacts and operational collaboration with NGOs (OD 10.70). The directive defines NGOs as "private organization that pursue activities to relieve suffenng, promote the interests of the poor, protect the environment, or undertake community development" At identification of an EA category "A" project, or as soon as the project is classified as a category "A" project, any borrower who does not consult with local NGOs, or does not seek and consider the informed views of the affected parties through the release and public comment on the relevant EA, are considered to be out of compliance with this policy. It is therefore unlikely, in such cases, that the Bank would continue to support that project. EA requirements should be reviewed well in advance of the implementation of any project to ensure compliance with the principles outlined m the EA OD The EA OD's provision for public consultation reflects a larger social trend. Forces are converging to convince both govemrnent and development agencies to be more responsive to public concerns and participation because popular support is a key factor in project viability. In some countries, this trend has helped to motivate a popular shift towards democracy. Experience with "people-centered" development is growing and gaining acceptance and attention. 8.1.2 Policy of the Vietnam Government (GOV) Vietnam is a socialist country. The State is determined by the fundamental principle "ofpeople, fi-onm people andfor people". The democratic approach to the social management of GOV is expressed in the basic principle of "people know, people discuss and people contror' all activities of the Government. Page 49 September 2003 Project Management Unit - PC2 At present, based on these basic pnnciples, all policies, programs or projects of the Government, private and/or foreign investors should be disclosed and discussed with the people In the affected areas so that the reasonable cormments and concerns of project affected people (PAP) are fully considered and incorporated. In recent years, the rapid pace of industrialization and urbanization has impacted environmental quality,' causing adverse impacts on public health, the general ecology and associated economy in various regions in Vietnam. As a result, inclusion of relevant environmental considerations in the socio-economic development decision process have became an important issue, and compliance is of concern by not only to the Government (MoNRE, DoNRE, MPI, Ministry of Industry) but also affected parties associated with the project. To avoid negative impacts on project affected people, Governmental Decree N 1 75/CP issued on 18 April 1994 required that all projects in the development of industry, energy, transport, water resource, agric'ulture, etc. should conduct a compliant EIA study meeting the requirements of the environmental management authorities and that the contents of EIA reports include predicted impacts and mitigation measures must be discussed with the PAP. The PAP should submit their comments and concerns to the project proponents through their authorised representatives, e.g. Governmental agencies (the People Commruttee, People Council) and/or socio-political organizations (Fatherland Front, Farmers Association, Women Union etc.) or non-government organizations (e.g. Vietnam Association for the Conservation of the Nature and Environment, Biological Association, Economic Association, Foresters Association etc.). These organizations should collect all comments from the local people and send them to the environmental management authorities (DoNRE at provincial level or MoNRE at central level) or even to Provincial People's Council or National Assembly. During the environmental review process, all comments and requirements of the PAP should be discussed and conclusions reported to the project proponents, so that the project can develop proper alternatives and implement measures for mitigation of the negative impacts. The project will receive an investment license, only after appropriate modification of location, design, capacity and/or technology of the project to meet the requirement of environmental protection and resettlement. Relating to compensation for the PAP who lost land, dwellings and/or income as a result of the projects, the GOV issued Decree N 22/1998/ND-CP (24 April 1998). This Decree is the legal base for preparation, implementation of proper resettlement action plan (RAP) which supports the PAP in finding new jobs, new settlement sites, maintain livmg standard and avoid adverse impacts of the project on the local socio-economy. In the recent years, various policies and regulations of the Government and provincial PC issued to create more chances for public consultation, more support in compensation rates to PA-Hs so that their life will be improved. This project will use the nearest policies of the Government and province in public consultation. 8.2 Aims of Public Consultation and Information Dissemination Information dissemination to, consultation with, and participation of affected people and involved agencies: (i) reduce the potential for conflicts, (ii) help to establish a comprehensive environmental management plan and thus, maximize the project socio-economic benefit, (iii) minimize the risk of project delays, and (iv) enable the project to design the resettlement and rehabilitation program as a comprehensive development program to fit the needs and priorities of the affected people, thereby maximizing the economic and social benefits of the project investment. Public consultation and information dissemination was scheduled for two phases: pre-construction (project preparation) and project implementation. Page 50 September 2003 Project Management Unit - PC2 8.3 Public Consultation and Information Dissemination During the Pre- construction Phase Dunng project preparation stage from November 2001 to August 2002, the following activities were carried out sequentially by PC2 and/or provincial energy services: 8.3.1 Information and Discussion with Local Authorities on the Line Route During the field survey for the F/S, the PC2's Consultants discussed with the Commune authority on the project line route to find the be*st route with minimal effects on compensation and minimal impacts on the environment. In meetings with local authorities PC2 also proposed compensation and rehabilitation policies, mechanism for complaints. After the line routes have been designed, the Consultants of PC2 sent the designed line route to the communes for their further comments. 8.3.2 Impact Survey and Statistics Based on the agreed line route, survey teams had realized the route at site, and coordinated with the commune officials to make a list of PAPs' affected land and crops. The socio-economic survey forms were delivered to affected households (for each commune. The survey is carried out by the District Compensation Committee, with the participation of the commune authority. 8.3.3 Meetings with PAPs When the survey finished, District Compensation Committee m coordination with the commune officials held meetings with PAPs having land in the ROW and with village representatives. In these meetings officials informed the participants of the project purposes; presented the project impacts on houses, land and crops in detail; introduce the principles and policies of compensation and advised people not to build new structures in the designed ROW. PAPs were consulted on the entitlement policy, property affected, and the compensation amount to each household. If PAR agree they will sign the inventory. From the reviewing programs by filling questionnaires), the project has received strong support from the local authorities as well as PAHs. PAMs want to have good policy for resettlement. 8.3.4 Approval and Clearance by Provincial Authority After working with the communes, the compensation document was sent to Steering Committee, which includes the Department of Finance and Price, Planning and Investment, Agriculture and Rural Development, and DoNRE. The committee reviewed the related documents and recommended to the Chairman of the People Committee for signing the compensation. 8.3.5 Consultation and Clearance on EIA Based on the survey result, for the duration of September 2002- July 2003 PC2 has prepared a draft EIA to submit to EVN, WB and concemed DoSTEs and PPCs for review. So far 6 of 8 related Provincial DoSTEs (now DoNRE) have approved EIA report of the project in the Southem Regions. ln September 2003 the WB's Consultants is collaborating with PC2 to revise and rewrite the drafted E1A report to meet the WB requirement. Page 51 September 2003 Project Management Unit - PC2 8.4 Public Consultation and Information Dissemination during the Construction-Phase Public consultation and information dissemination during project implementation is of great importance. The following information campaign will be carried out. 8.4.1 Information to the Local Authority Before the project starts, the first task for PC2 PMU is to assist the Provincial Steering Comnuittee to organize meetings with involved departments of the project provinces to discuss all the aspects of the project, including implementation of RAP, EIA, environmental monitoring. 8.4.2 Information to the Local People All eovironment impacts, land acquisition and other impacts induced during construction as well as operation of the project, if any, will be announced in meetings with local people at every commune so as to find prompt solution in order to avoid conflicts and implementation delays. At each comimune at least two meetings with commune PC, social organisations and PAHs, will be held. PC2 and its PMU will be responsible for replying to all requirements and questions of the PAHs and stakeholders.
