Each of these three projects has had an EMP prepared for the majority of its physical components, as follows: AECOM, 2014. Pacific Aviation Investment Program (PAIP), Basic Environmental Impact Assessment – Bonriki International Airport (TRW) Final Draft. Government of Kiribati (Office of the President), 2011. Kiribati Adaptation Programme – Phase III; Environmental Management Plan. February 2011. Government of Kiribati, June 2014. Kiribati Road Rehabilitation Project, Improvement of the Main Betio-Buota Road, Temaiku Road and Feeder Roads in Betio, Bairiki and Bikenibeu. Contract Document Volume 2A (Revision 5), Part 2: Works Requirements, Environmental Management Plan However, at the time that the Environmental Management Plans for these three projects were developed, the scope of associated coastal protections works required was not clear. Now that designs have been developed and funding approved, this current CPEMP has been prepared, which builds on the three existing EMPs and details environmental mitigation and monitoring measures specifically for the coastal protection works. 1.2 Coastal sites covered by this CPEMP This CPEMP covers coastal protection works at a total of 10 sites on South Tarawa, as listed in Table 1.1. Locations of these sites are shown in Figure 1.

For this reason, the majority of the background information in the three existing EMPs, some of which is specific to the sites that each EMP covers, is not repeated and instead is cross-referenced wherever possible. This includes information relating to the Policy, Legal and Administrative Frameworks, or Socio-Economic settings. However, Section 2 of this CPEMP includes information linking this CPEMP to existing regulatory processes, and Section 3 provides summary information on the physical (coastal) environment at each site, which was not provided in the three existing EMPs. The layout of the Environmental Management Plan presented in Section 4 is intended to mirror that in the existing EMPs, which will assist in implementation, and in incorporating it into Tender/Contract documents. This CPEMP and the existing project EMPs are driven by the overarching legislation and policy framework as set out in Sections 2.1 to 2.4 below. In essence, the CPEMP forms an addendum to each of the existing project EMPs, but in each case it relates only to coastal protection works that are a component of the relevant project. The figure below shows the relationship of this CPEMP to the three project EMPs. If there is any inconsistency between the project EMPs and this CPEMP, other than in relation to matters of ‘currency’1, then the relevant project EMP takes precedence over this CPEMP. The CPEMP is a dynamic document which may be updated as consultation and detailed designs of the project components are finalised to ensure currently unanticipated impacts and revised 1This relates to any instances where, due to the ongoing design and development of the projects since the project EMPs were finalised, this CPEMP refers (directly or indirectly) to more recent versions of drawings, specifications or other documents than does the relevant project EMP. KAP III, KRRP and KAIP Projects: Coastal Protections - Environmental Management Plan (CPEMP) T&T Ref. 750968.2100 Ministry of Public Works and Utilities, Kiribati October 2014 5 mitigation measures are addressed. Effective implementation of the CPEMP is a requirement of the funding agencies and local legislation, so monitoring is an integral component of implementation. A Monitoring Plan is included in Section 4 (Table 4.4) of this CPEMP. This CPEMP is to form part of the bidding documents for contract(s) yet to be awarded, and once awarded will form a basis of the contractor’s EMP. Land acquisition and compensation aspects of the projects are covered by the main project EMPs, and the relevant Resettlement Plan or Land Acquisition and Resettlement Policy Framework, as appropriate.

As a sovereign state, the proposed works must comply with a number of Kiribati’s legislative acts and regulations. These are summarised below and described more comprehensively in the three existing EMPs.  Environment Act 1999: provides for the protection, restoration and enhancement of Kiribati’s natural, social and cultural environment. Gives power to the Environment and Conservation Division (ECD) of the Ministry of Environment, Lands & Agricultural Development (MELAD) for the administration of environmental affairs including providing for sustainable development and implementing the Environmental Regulations 2009, including consideration of applications for Environment Licences (ELs), issuance of ELs and monitoring compliance with the conditions of ELs, and enforcement activities as provided for by Section 49 of the Act.  Biosecurity Act 2011: controls movement of plants and animals and their products in order to prevent the establishment and spread of animal and plant pests and diseases. Administered by MELAD.  Mineral Development Licensing Ordnance 1977: provides for the licensing and development of activities relating to the use of Kiribati’s mineral resources (including sands and aggregates).  Wildlife Conservation Ordnance 1977: allows the Minister for Environment, Lands & Agricultural Development to declare areas such as wildlife sanctuaries, or for protection of specific animal species. There are no sanctuaries or closed areas on South Tarawa.  Aerodromes and Air Navigation Aids Ordnance 1977: allows for the GoK to declare controlled areas for security and safety around aerodromes and navigational aids.  Civil Aviation Act 1977: provides for the administration and management of the civil aviation sector in Kiribati.  Recreational Reserves Act 1996: allows for land owned or leased by GoK to be reserved for recreational purposes for the use and enjoyment of the people of Kiribati.  The Foreshore and Land Reclamation Ordnance 1969, as amended in 1977 and 2005: this ordnance inter alia strengthens the recognition of customary rights over the foreshore.  The Prohibited Areas Ordinance 1957 provides for certain islands and their territorial waters to be prohibited areas, set aside for conservation purposes, while the Closed Districts Act 1990 allows for parts of islands to be declared for conservation purposes. There are no Prohibited Areas or Closed Districts in the vicinity of any of the proposed works sites. Of particular relevance to this CPEMP is the requirements of the Environment Act for Environment Licences for the proposed coastal protection works. The current status of the Environment Licences for each works area are set out in Table 2.1 below. KAP III, KRRP and KAIP Projects: Coastal Protections - Environmental Management Plan (CPEMP) T&T Ref. 750968.2100 Ministry of Public Works and Utilities, Kiribati October 2014 7 Table 2.1.

In accordance with this legislation Tarawa has three administrative councils:  Betio Town Council (or BTC), on Betio Islet;  Teinainano Urban Council (or TUC), from Bairiki to Bonriki (this is the council applicable to the project area)  Eutan Tarawa Council (or ETC), for North Tarawa or Tarawa Ieta (all the islets on the east side of the atoll, north of Bonriki, including Buota which is linked by road to South Tarawa. All of the sites are within the Teinainano Urban Council’s jurisdiction. Relevant instruments include:  The declared Bonriki Water Reserve (in the vicinity of and to the immediate north-west of Sites 15E and 15N) under LN 58/69 as described on plan No. 5/26 of 28 May 1969. KAP III, KRRP and KAIP Projects: Coastal Protections - Environmental Management Plan (CPEMP) T&T Ref. 750968.2100 Ministry of Public Works and Utilities, Kiribati October 2014 8  The Temaiku Bonriki General Land Use [Zoning] Plan, December 2010. 2.3 International Obligations Kiribati is a signatory to a number of international agreements. Listed below are some of the more applicable agreements to the type of activities of KAP III, KRRP and KAIP. In particular, they pertain to disposal of waste. This list is not exhaustive.  Convention to Ban the Importation into Forum Island Countries of Hazardous and Radioactive Waste and to Control the Transboundary Movement and Management of Hazardous Waste within the South Pacific region. (Adopted at Waigani, PNG on 16 September 1995)  Basel Convention on the Control of Transboundary Movements of Hazardous Wastes and Their Disposal  Convention for the Protection of the Natural Resources and Environment of the South Pacific Region (Adopted at Noumea, New Caledonia on 24 November 1986)  Protocol concerning Cooperation in Combating Pollution Emergencies in the South Pacific Region  Protocol for the Prevention of Pollution of the South Pacific Region by Dumping Due to the problems regarding solid waste on Kiribati and the need to export all waste generated by the project not able to be reused locally, the Waigani Convention and Basel Convention are particularly relevant and will need to be adhered to in preparing hazardous substances (e.g. waste oil, lubricants, articles containing polychlorinated biphenyls or asbestos) for shipping and final disposal at acceptable and licensed waste facilities. The conventions outline the necessary information required for documents (notification and movement) and agreements that need to be in place with the receiving territory. These requirements are generally addressed at the project-specific EMP level, but they are mentioned here for completeness. 2.4 Donor Requirements As the World Bank and the Asian Development Bank (ADB) are both donors to the projects, the policies of these organisations are also of relevance. 2.4.1 World Bank Group The projects are considered to be Category B project under World Bank environmental and social screening guidelines and require development of project specific EMP. Due to the nature of the project it is expected that environmental impacts will be site specific, few if any are irreversible, and mitigation measures can be readily designed and implemented. In accordance with the World Bank Operational Policy 4.01 (Environmental Assessment), this CPEMP includes information on mitigation, monitoring, capacity development and training, and implementation costs. World Bank Operational Policy 4.04 (Natural Habitats) is also relevant to these projects and their EMP. OP 4.04 requires the design and implementation of appropriate measures to avoid the significant conversion or degradation of natural habitats. 2.4.2 Asian Development Bank The Safeguard Policy Statement of the Asian Development Bank (ADB) requires inter alia borrowers/clients to prepare an EMP, which will include proposed mitigation measures, KAP III, KRRP and KAIP Projects: Coastal Protections - Environmental Management Plan (CPEMP) T&T Ref. 750968.2100 Ministry of Public Works and Utilities, Kiribati October 2014 9 environmental monitoring, reporting, and capacity development requirements. Key considerations include mitigation of potential adverse impacts to the level of “no significant harm to third parties”, the polluter pays principle, the precautionary approach, and adaptive management. ADB assigns projects to similar environmental categories to the World Bank (i.e. Category B for the KAP III, KRRP and KAIP projects). KAP III, KRRP and KAIP Projects: Coastal Protections - Environmental Management Plan (CPEMP) T&T Ref. 750968.2100 Ministry of Public Works and Utilities, Kiribati October 2014 10 3 Environmental Setting and Proposed Works This sections provides a description of the environmental setting for each project site, and an overview of the proposed physical works at each site. Further detail on the physical works can be obtained from the relevant detailed design reports, released by Tonkin & Taylor International Ltd, as follows:  Detailed Design Report for Site 1 (dated December 2013)  Detailed Design Report for Site 5 (dated December 2013)  Detailed Design Report for Site 11 (dated April 2014)  Detailed Design Report for Site 10 (dated July 2014)  Detailed Design Report for Site 15 (dated July 2014)  Detailed Design Report for Site 2 (dated August 2014)  Detailed Design Report for Site 4 (dated September 2014)  Detailed Design Report for Site 6 (dated September 2014) As the design drawings are liable to change as the projects are further developed, the design drawings have not been appended to this CPEMP, and the reader is directed to the most recent versions of the detailed design reports. 3.1 Site 1 (1 East and 1 West) This site is located on the lagoon shoreline between Nanikai and Bairiki. A causeway was constructed to link these islets in the early 1960s and currently supports the main island road. Due to ongoing coastal erosion which threatened the road in this location, a sand-cement bag wall approximately 1.7 m high and 140 m long was constructed in 2010 under the KAP-II project. While the constructed wall improved on previous sandbag designs, erosion continued at both ends adjacent the wall. Thus the works area comprises two sites which are separated by the KAP- II wall: Site 1 East and Site 1 West. Site 1 East – works will extend beyond the end of the Site 1 West – works will extend to the KAP-II seawall KAP-II seawall which is visible to the right. (near the sign – upper middle of picture). The upper beach (loose coral sand) zone at the site is a strip approximately 10 m wide with a gradient of around 12(H) to 1(V). Below this is a wide intertidal reef flat approximately 200 m wide, which slope gently into the lagoon. KAP III, KRRP and KAIP Projects: Coastal Protections - Environmental Management Plan (CPEMP) T&T Ref. 750968.2100 Ministry of Public Works and Utilities, Kiribati October 2014 11 Recommended long-term works at Site 1 (subject to funding) comprise precast concrete block seawalls at both Sites 1 East and 1 West. However, we understand that as an interim measure, it is proposed to construct concrete sand bag walls at these sites, with the concrete block seawall sections constructed over these in due course. The surfaces of concrete sand bags will break apart relatively quickly (over a period of months) if they are exposed to wave action, releasing pieces of bag and plastic fibre into the environment. Such releases would be lessened by construction of the pre-cast concrete wall over the concrete sand bags as soon as possible. The works at Site 1 East will also incorporate a set of beach access stairs, a beach access sand ladder, and a vegetated beach berm, enclosed within a fence. The sand ladder will focus pedestrian traffic to and from the beach into single (protected) location, and thus reduce potential damage to the vegetated berm and other components of the works as the result of informal pedestrian access. Once the ‘hard structures’ at Site 1 East have been built in accordance with the construction drawings, it is proposed that fast growing, salt-tolerant vegetation will be established along the upper beach and road berm east of the grouted block wall, to reduce wave run-up extent and damage potential, trap wind-blown sand and improve ecological connectivity between the land and sea. Plant specifications, propagation, planting and monitoring/management requirements for Site 1 East are provided in the accompanying Coastal Protection Vegetation Report (Tonkin & Taylor International, 2014). Site 1 is located on a man-made causeway, and there are no Natural Habitats or Critical Natural Habitats2 within or in the vicinity of the proposed works footprint. Around 10 trees (including 5 te nii or coconut trees) and a number of shrubs will need to be removed from the road margin at Site 1 East, to allow works to proceed. Two large pine trees and a number of smaller shrubs will need to be removed from Site 1 West. Due to the close proximity of the proposed seawall to the roadway, there is unlikely to be any opportunity for planting replacement trees above the coastal protection works after physical works are complete, other than low ground-cover vegetation or shrubs in the vegetated berm area at Site 1 East. However, as the integrity of the land which these plants occupy is already compromised by erosion, they would likely have been lost in the short-medium term in any case. 3.2 Site 2 Site 2 is located on the southern (ocean) side of the Nanikai-Teaorareke Causeway, opposite the entrance to the Nanikai landfill. At this location, the backshore west of the existing seawall is eroding and threatening the main road, with the scarp edge coming within 2 m of the road edge. Further west, trees are being undermined and will soon fall onto the beach. Works are proposed immediately to the west of (and adjoining) a section of existing coral block seawall, in a location where wall has failed. Works proposed comprise the removal of the broken coral and concrete sandbag wall, construction of a grouted pre-cast block wall approximately 55 m in length, placement of broken wall material as scour protection at the toe of the new wall, and patching cavities in the remaining sections of the existing wall. The works will also include the construction of a beach access sand ladder beyond the western end of the new wall section. The sand ladder will focus pedestrian traffic to and from the beach into single (protected) location, and thus reduce potential damage to the remaining berm as the result of informal pedestrian access. 2 According to World Bank OP 4.04 definitions KAP III, KRRP and KAIP Projects: Coastal Protections - Environmental Management Plan (CPEMP) T&T Ref. 750968.2100 Ministry of Public Works and Utilities, Kiribati October 2014 12 Site 2 works area showing broken seawall. Remaining seawall is visible in right hand photograph. Foreshore below Site 2. Site 2 is located on a man-made causeway, and there are no Natural Habitats or Critical Natural Habitats within or in the vicinity of the proposed works footprint. Habitats at the site comprise a gently sloping intertidal reef flat with a relatively steep upper beach strip approximately 10 m wide. A ‘finger’ of conglomerate rock boulders overlies the rock shelf, extending approximately 150 m through the intertidal area seaward of the works area to a small vegetated island, which is visible in the photograph above. Trees in the works area have been compromised by (and likely contributed to) the failure of the coastal protection works, and no significant viable vegetation is required to be removed. 3.3 Site 4 An existing 1.5 m high sand-cement bag wall spans approximately 50 m at the KAP-II Site 4 at Korobu Road. The wall is in average condition, but unlikely to fail in the very near future. The coastal edge on both sides of the wall is low and extends close (within 2-5 m) to the existing road edge. It is likely that during strong onshore winds and high tides, some wave overtopping onto the road surface will occur. The shoreline has been subject to erosion of up to 15 m since 1969. This, combined with future increased sea level rise means that ongoing erosion is likely to continue. In the works area, the conglomerate rock platform is exposed. Below this, there are gently sloping reef flats, mostly covered in sand, with some fragments of conglomerate rock. Abundance and diversity of animals in this area is low. The works area is located in the upper intertidal/supratidal zone, which is affected by the presence of the road immediately adjacent to the site, and densely populated human settlements across that road. There are no Natural Habitats or Critical Natural Habitats within or in the vicinity of the proposed works footprint. KAP III, KRRP and KAIP Projects: Coastal Protections - Environmental Management Plan (CPEMP) T&T Ref. 750968.2100 Ministry of Public Works and Utilities, Kiribati October 2014 13 Proposed intervention works at this site involve placement of sand from a sustainable local (authorised) aggregate source to create a wider beach berm, which will provide a buffer against future erosion and protect against wave overtopping. Aggregate will be required to be sourced from a site with approved licences, e.g. Te Atinimarawa Company Ltd (TACL), however the exact source will be proposed by tenderers for construction contracts. The widened berm will be vegetated between the roadway and the high water mark using fast- growing, salt-tolerant plants sourced locally from South Tarawa. Plant specifications, propagation, planting and monitoring/management requirements for Site 4 are provided in the accompanying Coastal Protection Vegetation Report (Tonkin & Taylor International, 2014). The works will include a sand ladder to provide pedestrian access to the beach without damaging the plantings, as at Sites 1 and 2, and a hardstand to provide storage for small boats without damaging the plantings. Beach and foreshore at Site 4 3.4 Site 6 Site 6 is located on the lagoon side of the Antebuka Road, approximately 300 m from Site 4. At Site 6, a 2.5 m high sand-cement bag wall with boat ramp was constructed under the KAP-II project. The total wall length is approximately 130 m. Around 50 m of natural shoreline exists between the end of the KAP II wall and an adjacent coral block wall. This section of shoreline is eroding (possibly exacerbated by the adjacent walls). It is proposed to stabilise the section of shoreline using ‘soft engineering’ measures: placement of sand to augment the natural beach and berm, and stabilising this with fast-growing salt-tolerant plant species (sourced locally). Plant specifications, propagation, planting and monitoring/management requirements for Site 6 are provided in the accompanying Coastal Protection Vegetation Report (Tonkin & Taylor International, 2014). The works will include a sand ladder to provide pedestrian access to the beach without damaging the plantings, and a slipway to assist with launching and retrieving small boats. KAP III, KRRP and KAIP Projects: Coastal Protections - Environmental Management Plan (CPEMP) T&T Ref. 750968.2100 Ministry of Public Works and Utilities, Kiribati October 2014 14 Site 6 – KAP-II seawall visible at right, informal rock wall visible at left. In common with Site 4, the works area at Site 6 is located in the upper intertidal/supratidal zone, which is affected by the presence of the road immediately adjacent to the site, and densely populated human settlements across that road. The foreshore below Site 6 consists of gently- sloping sandflats with a characteristic intertidal assemblage dominated by molluscs, echinoderms and anthozoans. While there are some substantial trees, including coconut trees, on the landward side of the works area, it is likely that the works can be completed with only smaller shrubs being removed to provide access. The project will not result in the significant conversion of Natural Habitats or Critical Natural Habitats. 3.5 Site 5 Site 5 is located on the northern (lagoon) side of the Ambo-Taborio causeway, which was constructed in the 1960s. Recently, erosion of the lagoon shoreline along the eastern part of the causeway has exposed utilities (water supply pipes and power cables) and is threatening the roadway, reaching to within 1 m of the road edge in places. General view of Site 5, taken from foreshore Western extent of proposed works area, adjacent to KAP-II sand-cement bag wall The proposed works will be carried out in the upper beach area, where a layer approximately 1 m deep of loose coral sand has been deposited against the causeway, and overlies the intertidal reef flat. Surface habitats consist of a coral sand upper beach strip approximately 5 m wide, which provides some habitat for coconut crabs – during a site visit in June 2014 a small number (<5) of coconut crab holes were seen, outside of the proposed permanent works footprint, and in an area which is subject to periodic inundation, and thus unlikely to provide permanent habitat for KAP III, KRRP and KAIP Projects: Coastal Protections - Environmental Management Plan (CPEMP) T&T Ref. 750968.2100 Ministry of Public Works and Utilities, Kiribati October 2014 15 coconut crabs. Seaward of this area is a reef sand/mud flat with large numbers of coral fragments, and the area provides habitat for intertidal invertebrate species such as gastropods and brittle stars. A mangrove planting trial has been conducted in the upper intertidal area at Site 5 (some seedlings visible in the left photograph above). This trial appears to have been largely unsuccessful, probably due to wave damage. Site 5 is located on a man-made causeway, and there are no Natural Habitats or Critical Natural Habitats within or in the vicinity of the proposed works footprint. Proposed works comprise a sand-cement bag seawall in the first instance (similar to that which was constructed on the western section of the causeway under KAP II), followed by a blockwork wall at a later date, subject to funding being secured. Underground services will also be realigned closer to the roadway. Works will require the remove of 3 pine trees above the erosion scarp, which because of their location are presumed to be owned by GoK/MPWU and thus require no compensation. Due to the close proximity of the proposed coastal protection works to the roadway, there is unlikely to be any opportunity for planting after physical works are complete. 3.6 Site 11 Site 11 is located on Temaiku Road (ocean side) at approximately chainage 1500 m (opposite the Taiwanese Technical Mission). The existing roadway at this site extends very close to the shoreline. A number of existing sandbag walls are failing and the existing roadway is in danger of being undermined by erosion and is currently vulnerable to wave overtopping during storm conditions. Flooding due to wave overtopping has also been noted as problematic in this area Coastal protection is likely required along a length of approximately 100 m between road chainages 1460 m and 1560 m to tie into adjacent low coral conglomerate headlands. Site 11: existing coastal protection works and nearby habitats Proposed new coastal protection works for Site 11 comprise the removal of failed sections of sandbag wall, and construction of a rock revetment of approximately 75 m total length, either side of, and below the existing vertical section of wall. Voids beneath the existing wall ends would be filled with concrete. Once the ‘hard structures’ at Site 11 have been built in accordance with the construction drawings, it is proposed that approximately 75 m2 of fast growing, salt-tolerant vegetation will be established, to reduce damage potential, trap wind-blown sand and improve ecological connectivity between the land and sea. Plant specifications, propagation, planting and monitoring/management requirements for Site 11 are provided in the accompanying Coastal Protection Vegetation Report (Tonkin & Taylor International, 2014). Habitats and species in the vicinity of Site 11 are typical of exposed rocky shores, with a gradation from terrestrial grasses in the supratidal zone, through boulders with few encrusting species in the spray zone to the rock shelf with pools which provide habitat for algae, brittle stars, anemones, gastropods and other molluscs, albeit in relatively low densities. There is no KAP III, KRRP and KAIP Projects: Coastal Protections - Environmental Management Plan (CPEMP) T&T Ref. 750968.2100 Ministry of Public Works and Utilities, Kiribati October 2014 16 significant terrestrial vegetation in or near the footprint of the proposed works. The project will not result in the significant conversion of Natural Habitats or Critical Natural Habitats. 3.7 Site 10 Site 10 (Kabin Temaiku) is located on Temaiku Road, approximately 700 m east of Site 11. The shoreline in this part of Temaiku has experienced large-scale and rapid recession over the last few decades, with recession of up to 140 m observed to the north of this site. Temaiku Road is low and passes close to the coastline in this area. An existing sand-cement bag wall extends for around 110 m but is in generally average to poor condition with toe scour and overtopping scour threatening the short-term integrity of the wall. To the north of the wall a small pocket beach exists which is popular with locals for swimming at high tide but also overtops and the backing land is low. The northern end of the wall adjacent to this beach is being outflanked. To the south of the wall a narrow section of unprotected coastline before a low coral conglomerate headland channels incoming waves and overtops the existing road. The sand- cement bag wall has completely failed in places within this section. The existing roadway is low in this area ranging between RL 3.2 and 3.4 m. The existing high tide level is 2.5 m and waves are observed to easily overtop the southern section of roadway. Currently only around 15 m at the southern end of the site is overtopped and threatened by erosion but the wall is close to failure at its northern and southern ends and complete failure could be expected within the next 1-5 years. When this occurs around 130 m of roadway will be threatened by flooding due to wave overtopping and by erosion. A section of road to the north has already been relocated further inland between 2005 and 2007. Site 10: Eastern end (outflanking); central section; western end (seawall failure) A combination of works are proposed at Site 10. These comprise:  Demolition of sections of existing seawall as required, to permit construction of new seawall.  Excavation down to hard reef rock and construction of new rock-armoured revetment at a gradient of approximately 1(V):2(H).  Augmentation of the existing beach at the eastern end of the site with sediment imported from a sustainable source to provide increased protection against erosion and wave overtopping, and for public amenity. Aggregate will be sourced from a site with approved licences, e.g. Te Atinimarawa Company Ltd (TACL), however the exact source will be proposed by tenderers for construction contracts.  A boat ramp at 1:8 gradient will be incorporated into the coastal protection works. Once the ‘hard structures’ at Site 10 have been built in accordance with the construction drawings, it is proposed that approximately 430 m2 of fast growing, salt-tolerant vegetation will be established in three separate sections, to reduce damage potential, trap wind-blown sand and improve ecological connectivity between the land and sea. Plant specifications, propagation, KAP III, KRRP and KAIP Projects: Coastal Protections - Environmental Management Plan (CPEMP) T&T Ref. 750968.2100 Ministry of Public Works and Utilities, Kiribati October 2014 17 planting and monitoring/management requirements for Site 1 are provided in the accompanying Coastal Protection Vegetation Report (Tonkin & Taylor International, 2014). As the foreshore adjacent to the coastal protection works is expected to continue to retreat, ongoing maintenance will be required, e.g. adjusting rock locally to protect adjacent land, and eventually extending the seawall (potentially up to 50 m over the next 30 years). Habitats and species in the vicinity of Site 10 are a combination of exposed rocky shore (with a similar assemblage to Site 11), sandy beach and reef sand flats. There is no significant terrestrial vegetation in or near the footprint of the proposed coastal protection works, although some trees may have to be removed, to make way for the road realignment. The project will not result in the significant conversion of Natural Habitats or Critical Natural Habitats. 3.8 Site 15 Site 15 is at the eastern (ocean) end of the runway at Bonriki International Airport and comprises eastern (15E) and northern (15N) parts separated by a conglomerate rock headland. At Site 15E, a variety of coral block, sand cement bag, gabion basket and asphalt-covered rock walls have been constructed historically and all are in various states of disrepair and failure. A new 90 m long vertical reinforced concrete seawall with wave return wall and a crest height of RL 4.8 m has been constructed under KAP-II funding. The wall is in good repair, but is located seaward of the current coastal edge and is flanked by sand-cement bags which are likely to fail in the short-term. Views of the existing seawall and foreshore at Site 15E The proposed remediation at Site 15E involves the demolition and removal of the existing sandbag and other informal walls along a 100 m section of the shore, and placing this material behind a new rock-armoured revetment (gradient 2(H):1(V)) extending approximately 120 m south and 20 m north of the existing concrete seawall. The section of vertical reinforced concrete wall to the northern end of this site, which has not yet been compromised, would remain. Additional rocks may be placed seaward of the existing seawall to reduce the potential for wave overtopping. The proposed coastal protection works will run from headland to headland – connecting to hard structures at each end - and thus there is no risk of erosion being transferred to adjacent beach areas. At Site 15N, a 2 m high sand-cement bag wall extends for approximately 120 m. While most of the wall is in average condition, and is unlikely to fail in the immediate future, it is being outflanked at its western end where it adjoins the adjacent beach, and there are two sections where there are holes through the wall, and fines are being lost from behind the wall, leading to partial failure of the wall at one of the locations, and likely failure at the other location if remedial works are not undertaken shortly. KAP III, KRRP and KAIP Projects: Coastal Protections - Environmental Management Plan (CPEMP) T&T Ref. 750968.2100 Ministry of Public Works and Utilities, Kiribati October 2014 18 Views of the existing seawall and foreshore at Site 15N Coastal protection proposals for Site 15N comprise extension to westward of the existing wall by approximately 20 m (to tie in with the existing beach berm), using mortared precast concrete blocks, patching cavities in the existing seawall, and backfilling behind both sections of seawall with fill sourced locally (i.e. excavated to form the toe of the new wall). Where the proposed new section of seawall overlaps the existing seawall, it is proposed to construct the new section to the seaward side of the old section, and keep the existing section of seawall in place behind the new section. It is noted that the western end of the seawall will likely require further extension in future, as the beach is expected to continue retreating at this location. At its eastern end, the seawall connects into a headland, and thus there will be no transfer of erosion to an adjacent beach area. Once the ‘hard structures’ at Site 15E and 15N have been built in accordance with the construction drawings, it is proposed that approximately 760 m2 of fast growing, salt-tolerant vegetation will be established, to reduce damage potential, trap wind-blown sand and improve ecological connectivity between the land and sea. 125 m2 will be planted at Site 15N, with the balance at 15E. Plant specifications, propagation, planting and monitoring/management requirements for Site 15 are provided in the accompanying Coastal Protection Vegetation Report (Tonkin & Taylor International, 2014). Marine habitats in the vicinity of Site 15E comprise largely of a wave-cut conglomerate rock platform, with a rich assemblage of rock pool intertidal species such as seagrasses, invertebrates such as brittle stars, chitins and gastropods, and wading birds. Such habitats are also present at the eastern end of Site 15N, while the balance of intertidal habitats at this location comprise intertidal sand flats with cobble-sized coral fragments, and a sandy upper beach with low habitat value. No significant vegetation, which would require removal in order to carry out the works is present at either site. While the rock pool assemblage near the works area could be deemed Natural Habitat under World Bank OP4.04, it will not be directly affected by the proposed works. The works will not result in the significant conversion of Natural Habitats. 3.9 Ananau Causeway The Ananau causeway runs approximately north-south across the Temaiku Bight (lagoon side), connecting Temaiku in the south, with the airport and the island of Buota to the north. The coastal protection works on the Ananau Causeway are complete, and consist of a gentle sloping ramp of sand-cement bags, which have been constructed as part of the KRRP project. KAP III, KRRP and KAIP Projects: Coastal Protections - Environmental Management Plan (CPEMP) T&T Ref. 750968.2100 Ministry of Public Works and Utilities, Kiribati October 2014 19 Coastal protection works on the Ananau Causeway As a separate project to the KRRP work, in 2010-2011, MELAD-ECD embarked on a program of planting mangrove seedlings, with KAP II and other GoK budgetary support. Mangrove seedlings were locally sourced from a swamp area at the southern end of the causeway. As can be seen from the photographs above and below, these have become well established. As the physical works are complete, the provisions in this CPEMP relate only to operational aspects at the Ananau causeway, including monitoring of any impacts of the works on these planted mangroves. Mangrove planting (carried out by MELAD-ECD) adjacent to the Ananau causeway KAP III, KRRP and KAIP Projects: Coastal Protections - Environmental Management Plan (CPEMP) T&T Ref. 750968.2100 Ministry of Public Works and Utilities, Kiribati October 2014 20 4 Environmental Management Plan 4.1 Introduction The CPEMP summarises the anticipated environmental impacts and associated mitigation and monitoring measures during the pre-construction, construction and operational phases. It makes reference to the relevant law and contract documents, provides approximate locations, timeframes, mitigation costs, and the responsibility for implementation and supervision of mitigation and monitoring actions. As stated in Section 1.3, in the event of any inconsistency between the mitigation and monitoring actions as set out in this CPEMP and those in the project EMPs, other than for matters of ‘currency’, the project EMP shall have precedence. The recommendations and proposed mitigation measures will be attached to the Project Bidding Documents and subsequently the Contractors’ contracts. There are no environmental mitigation costs as these are incorporated in the civil work design and included in contractor’s contract. Many of the mitigation measures will be incorporated as part of the standard design and construction practices and as such their costs will be included in the construction cost. 4.2 Linkage to contract documents Inadequate implementation of the CPEMP by the contractor may occur due to weak linkages of the CPEMP with the contract documents. The CPEMP is a part of the work program and as such it must be addressed by the contractor and carried out as required. In the Bid and Contract section “Special Conditions of Contract”, the Construction Supervision Consultant (CSC) of the MPWU will, prior to the tender being called and if necessary, revise and update the CPEMP, which will form part of the Bid and Contract document between MPWU and the successful tenderer. Any CPEMP issues are to be included in the agenda for any Pre-Tender meeting. The contractor will be required to provide a short statement within their tender, which confirms that:  the CPEMP conditions have been costed into the bid price,  the contractor has experience of working with Environmental Management Plans,  the contractor has a qualified and experienced person on the contractor’s team who will be responsible for the environmental compliance requirements of the CPEMP. During construction, the contractor will work according to the requirements of the Contractor’s Environmental Management Plan (CEMP) (based on the relevant EMP and also this CPEMP) which will be prepared by the contractor and submitted to MPWU for approval, before construction can commence. Supervision and monitoring of the CEMP activities will be undertaken as follows: (i) The contractor has the initial responsibility for preparing and implementing the CEMP as per the works contract. (ii) The Resident Engineer (RE) will direct the contractor with regard to compliance with the CEMP. (iii) The MPWU will carry out independent monitoring of the work and can issue Defect Notices to the RE who will transmit these to the contractor. (iv) The contractor will have his own representative on site – the Site Engineer (SE) who will be responsible for implementing the contract and ensuring that the Contractor complies with the CEMP at all times. KAP III, KRRP and KAIP Projects: Coastal Protections - Environmental Management Plan (CPEMP) T&T Ref. 750968.2100 Ministry of Public Works and Utilities, Kiribati October 2014 21 (v) MELAD-ECD has responsibility for periodic verification that the conditions of the Environmental Licences are being adhered to. For sites such as Ananau Causeway, physical works are complete, and therefore this CPEMP only affects the operational monitoring phase of the project. 4.3 EMP Activity Tables Tables 4.1 to 4.4, which follow, set out specific environmental management actions that will be carried out, prior to, during and after construction of the coastal protection works, as follows:  Table 4.1: Design/Pre-construction environmental management plan (Generic)  Table 4.2: Construction/Operation phase pre-construction activities (Generic)  Table 4.3: Site specific environmental management measures  Table 4.4: Environmental Monitoring Plan Action items that are italicised in the following tables are direct requirements of the Environmental Licences issued by MELAD-ECD.

It should be read in conjunction with relevant sections of the project-specific EMPs. While there is some repetition of “Environmental Issues and Objectives” from the project-specific EMPs, this has been done where the mitigation methods have been modified in order to specifically address potential issues that may arise due to the nature of coastal protection works, or if the proposed mitigation is a requirement of the Environmental Licence(s) for coastal protection works.

It should be read in conjunction with relevant sections of the project- specific EMPs. While there is some repetition of “Environmental Issues and Objectives” from the project-specific EMPs, this has been done where:  the monitoring methods have been modified in order to specifically address potential issues that may arise due to the nature of coastal protection works  the proposed monitoring was only stated in one of the project-specific EMPs (and therefore did not apply to some of the projects)  the project-specific EMP did not state the performance standards or criteria, or  if the proposed monitoring is a requirement of the Environmental Licence(s) for coastal protection works and was not stated in the project-specific EMPs.

Furthermore, potential contractors appear to have capacity on staff to implement the required mitigation and monitoring measures. There is a potential requirement for developing capacity is within MELAD-ECD, which has the responsibility to provide periodic verification that the conditions of the Environmental Licences are being adhered to. During consultation, MELAD-ECD staff noted that although there is capacity to monitor compliance with conditions of the Environmental Licences, there is a shortage of inhouse skills to monitor whether coastal protection works have been constructed in accordance with the documentation which has been issued for construction, and any subsequent amendments. Such skills would be transferable to other coastal protection works project in the future. Capacity building for MELAD-ECD staff may also be of value in the area of assessment of impacts on coastal processes from various types of physical works, and what suitable mitigation and monitoring measures are. Construction-related impacts are relatively well-understood, but not the long-term impacts that may be caused by hard structures and plantings. Furthermore, MPWU staff could also benefit from capacity development in coastal protection asset monitoring and maintenance, consistent with the KAP III project’s objectives. There would be benefits both to the Implementing Agencies in the short term, and to MELAD-ECD and KAP III in the longer term, if opportunities were taken to upskill local staff in these areas. This could be in the form of bespoke training courses, or simply accompanying the supervising engineer/s on site when construction and operational phase measurements and observations are being made.
