The global goal is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by preventing heat generation by increasing the efficiency of heat production, reducing heat losses in heat transfer and distribution systems, and reducing the consumption of heat in the residential sector. The main beneficiaries are the heat supply company. Additional beneficiaries are residential customers who will benefit from more reliable, high-quality services provided by participating companies. For the consumers of Kherson city, implementation of the Project will ensure a stable supply of heating and hot water throughout the year. The implementation of the Project will allow the Khersonteploenergo to modernize the heat supply system as a whole, introduce energy and resource saving materials and technologies, implement dispatching and automated control systems for the entire company, and improve the system of measuring consumption. The project implementation should become a gradual step in the supply of heat and hot water in Kherson. Institutional Arrangements the Minregion is the line ministry responsible for implementation of projects in the municipal sector, including project preparation, supervision, and monitoring and evaluation as well as for review of projects’ evaluation results. Accordingly, Minregion carrys out such functions for this project. A Central Project Management unit (CPMU) was created around an existing PIU in Minregion implementing the CTF Project Preparation Grant. The responsibilities of the CPâ€?MU includes: reporting to the Bank; providing procurement and FM support to the local PIUs; aggregating data and reports; checking invoices and delivering them to the Ministry of Finance; supervising quality of service surveys; and monitoring and evaluation. The existing CP|MU’s capacity was increased by adding procurement, FM, engineering, safeguards, and accounting specialists. DH regional company –MPU Khersonteploenergo – is a sub-borrower for the project and shall be responsible for implementing its Energy Efficiency Investments in accordance with POM, PLESA and shall maintain its Regional Project Implementation unit (RPIU) throughout duration of the Project. MPU Khersonteploenergo has established a RPIU, using its existing staff, comprised of a: Director, Procurement Specialist, Financial Management Specialist, Technical Supervisor (engineer), and Safeguards Specialist, accountant. The responsibilities of the RPIU within the DH companies will include: preparing tender documents, preparing technical specifications, leading procurement and FM processes according to World Bank guidelines, supervising physical works, conducting environmental and social assessments, monitoring and evaluation, and preparing progress reports. The RPIU is supervised by Minregion. Contractor is an independent entity that agrees to render services that meet or exceed stated requirements or specifications, at a mutually agreed upon price and within a specified timeframe to another independent entity called contractee, principal, or project owner. The contractor will be selected by the RPIU according to the procurement procedures of WB. Subcontractor is a junior or secondary contractor who contracts with a prime contractor (and not the principal or owner of the project) to perform some or all the prime contractor's contractual-obligations under the prime contract. Construction Supervision Consultant is the entity assigned by the RPIU to represent them onsite and to conduct Inspections for Quality Control, Construction Methods, Cost Saving, etc. and to ensure that the Construction is being performed in accordance with the design and contract documents. Project objective and activities. The main objective of the project is to improve the quality, reliability and availability of heat and hot water supply service from existing resources. The implementation of the components of the investment program will reduce emissions of greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide) and nitrogen oxides due to increased efficiency of the technological process and reduced heat losses in district heating networks. The project envisages: • execution of reconstruction of 6 boiler houses and heating networks with installation of energy efficient boilers equipped with modulated burners with oxygen and frequency regulation (allows to smoothly regulate flaming flames and reduce natural gas consumption up to 15%); • reconstruction of 1 central heating substation • reconstruction of heating networks • technical modernization of 15 boiler houseswith installation of automatical working system for the equipment with temperature regulation of source depending on outside weather conditions; • technical reconstruction of 140 engineering inputs of multi-apartment houses with installation thermal energy meters; • installation in basements of 13 houses of individual heat points with the transfer of heating systems of houses on an independent circuit with the replacement of in the distribution of heating networks. The works will be carried out in two districts of Kherson. It is expected that the rehabilitation works would start in third quarter of 2018 and are scheduled to be finished by third quarter of 2020. The works shall not be performed during heating season. For obtaining environmental and financial benefits, the enterprises involved in this investment project plan optimize heat production processes and rehabilitate the district heating systems.. Anticipated Impacts. Project is expected to have positive social impacts on a broad range of stakeholders and beneficiaries, including the following: residential, public and commercial customers served by MPE “Khersonteploenergoâ€?, who will directly benefit from upgraded heating system, installed heat and hot water meters and the modernized transmission pipeline sectionчікуєтьÑ?Ñ?. Negative social impacts are minimal. Although, there is a deep-seated mistrust on the part of the population that do not believe that any reforms will improve services delivery and resources will be used as intended. Social tensions in the country due to constantly increasing utilities bills, coupled with a lack of accountability in the sector, and limited information about government priority investments in the sector can pose risks for the project. These risks will be mitigated by the careful targeting of beneficiaries, broad information campaigns and citizen engagement activities to improve transparency and accountability of the sector, client- customer relations and community engagement. A beneficiary satisfaction survey is being developed and this will provide baseline information on current perception on the public regarding existing service provisions and their suggestions a for improvements. World Bank (WB) Safeguard Policies and project’s environmental category . WB Safeguard policies reflect principles and procedure to be followed by the Borrower and the Bank in order to: i)ensure mitigation and oversight to level of risk and impacts of project; ii) inform the public and enable people to participate in decisions which affect them; iii) integrate environmental and social issues into project identification, design and implementation; iv) strengthen capacity of Government Agencies. WB Safeguard Policies require Environmental and Social Screening for the projects for potential adverse environmental and social impacts. Although, major construction works will not be part of these project, part of the civil works will be performed in the territory of on sites owned by the MPE "Khersonteploenergo", replacing the heating networks in many areas will be in the vicinity of residential buildings.So, for the reasons of high social significance the project has been assigned Category B. For Category B Project Environmental and Social Plan should be developed and implemented throughout the project. Environmental and Social Management Plan. ESMP is considered as a mandatory document which should be followed during the project implementation. An ESMP is developed on the basis provided by Program Level Environmental and Social Assessment (PLESA) and consists of the set of mitigation, monitoring, and institutional responsibility measures to be taken during implementation and operation to eliminate adverse environmental and social impacts, offset them, or reduce them to acceptable levels. The project ESMP includes a description of the policies, legal, and administrative framework in place in Ukraine regarding ESA, environmental management and the technical norms for centralized heating sector. This ESMP provides mitigation measures to cover typical impacts from rehabilitation / construction of heating networks, upgrading equipment at substations, including workers’ health and safety, earthworks, and solid and hazardous waste management, welding works, activity with power tools, lifting works, and construction related social issues. It contains ESMP arrangements implementation and monitoring plan for it, as well as a short analysis of project beneficiary (MPU “Khersonteploenergoâ€?), EA capacity and ESMP financing sources. The measures and procedures outlined in this ESMP are commitments made by the Borrower, therefore the Borrower remains responsible for their implementation. It is recognized that practical implementation of many of the measures may rest with contractors and subcontractors and consequently, RPIU will require the implementation of a robust review programme, as described in this ESMP, to measure and control that it is executed on their behalf. All contractors and subcontractors shall comply with the ESMP requirements as applicable to the tasks they are employed to undertake. Environmental and Social Mitigation Measures. The ESMP stipulates all adverse social and environmental impacts associated with the project will be prevented, eliminated, or minimized to an acceptable level. This can be achieved through continuous refinement and effective implementation of the environmental mitigation measures that would avoid or minimize potential adverse impacts on the environment of surrounding urban areas; replacing of old pipes and pumps and conducting rehabilitation works in a way that would prevent as much as possible cutting of trees, destroying of landscape, pollution of air and soil; ensuring labor safety and health impacts during welding operations,. avoiding /minimizing land acquisitions and resettlement impacts, inconvenience to the public during the constructions etc. Environmental and social monitoring. Environmental monitoring during project implementation provides information about the project environmental and social impacts and the effectiveness of mitigation measures. Such information enables the client and the Bank to evaluate the success of mitigation as part of project supervision and allows corrective action to be taken when needed. The monitoring section of the ESMP provides: (a) details, of monitoring measures, including the parameters to be measured, methods to be used, sampling locations, frequency of measurements; and, (b) monitoring and reporting procedures to (i) ensure early detection of conditions that necessitate mitigation measures, and (ii) furnish information on the progress and results of mitigation. This should also include the records of grievances received and resolved through the Grievance Redress Mechanism (GRM) established under the project Environmental supervision and reporting. The ESMP implementation will be supervised by Minregion and CPMU staff periodically (as per monitoring schedule), as well as by the WB (during its supervision missions) and by the local ecological inspectors. Furthermore, MPU “Khersonteploenergoâ€?, annually will present short information about the ESMP implementation as part of the Progress Reports to the WB by the Borrower. Integration of the ESMP into project documents. The ESMP provisions will form part of the design documents for the project and will be included in construction contracts for proposed activities, both into specifications and bills of quantities. Furthermore, the Contractors will be required to include the associated to ESMP mitigation and monitoring costs in their financial bids and required to comply with the ESMP provisions while implementing the project activities. In addition. Contractors should follow a code of conduct to ensure no undue harm or conflict between workers and the public including host/residential communities in the surrounding locations. Feedback: RPIU will be responsible for the disclosure of environmental and social documents developed for the purposes of the Project. These include the present Environmental and Social Management Plan, as well as all site-specific ESMPs and RAPs developed. The Grievance mechanism (GRM) established by the utilities and described this ESMP to be used to register and address grievances that may arise as the result of project works. Local communities, especially those which will be directly affected by the Project, could provide their feedback and proposals for the development of the safeguards instruments. Public feedback shall be incorporated in the drafts of these documents prior to their finalization. Address for providing feedback is MPE “Khersonteploenergoâ€?. MPU ‘Khersonteploenergoâ€?

Legislative Framework Environmental issues arising from this project are regulated by numerous laws, legal acts and norms. The major laws and legal acts which regulate environmental issues are listed in Annex 4 to this document. Business activity in the field of heat supply is regulated by the Laws of Ukraine “On the Heat supply». Key directions for heat systems development The law of Ukraine on the heat supply among other indicates the following key directions for heating systems development: • heat supply planning, DH systems optimization master plans development and implementation; the master plans are to be actual for at least 5 to 7 years and should consider the optimal combination of centralized and autonomous heating; • cogeneration units implementation, including in the existing heating plants; • use of alternative and renewable energy sources, incl. solar and wind energy, biogas, geothermal heat, industrial wastes; • use of highly efficient heating equipment and materials is the newly created and existing heating systems. This includes boilers with a high efficiency, exhaust gases heat utilizers, small-size heat exchangers, unified modular burners with automatic regulation, automated dispatching and control units; • heat energy transportation in long-distance and local (distributional) networks’ losses reduction by modern insulation implementation; • increase the operation period of the networks through introduction of the modern anticorrosion coatings and electrochemical protection means, use of non-metal pipelines; • introduction the network diagnostics into the operational process. The Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) procedure, which is regulated by the Law of Ukraine "On Environmental Impact Assessment", is applied for projects with power generation capacity, steam and hot water with a heat capacity of 50 MW or more with the use of organic fuels in Ukraine. However, the scope of law is not being applied to all types of reconstruction activities. Decree of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine dated 13 December 2017 ref.: 1010 defines as criteria for determining the planned activity that is not subject to environmental impact assessment, and criteria for defining extensions and changes in activities and objects that are not subject to an assessment of the environmental impact. The Project is not subject to Environmental Impact Assessment Report as per this law. Only one component of the project is subject to the Law "On EIA", namely the reconstruction of the boiler- house at the street. Bohun, 95. In accordance with building normatives, the EIA (OVNS) section should be developed as part of the project documentation. Requirements in relation to public disclosure, participation and access to information kept by state bodies and organizations, as well as the right to petition state authorities and the right to a healthy environment in Ukraine are prescribed by the Constitution of Ukraine. Ukraine ratified the Aarhus Convention in 1999, by adopting the Law on Confirming the Convention on Access to Information, Public Participation in Decision-making and Access to Justice in Environmental Matters. These regulations require the public to be informed about and involved in all matters concerning the environment. Depending on several factors, including the size / scale of the project, municipal or state level authorities in charge of environmental protection determine whether an EIA for a project is required. Ukrainian citizens have the right to participate in public consultation, have access to the information and the right to appeal against authority decisions. Within this project stakeholders’ mechanism will be implemented the procedures for it are described in stakeholders’ engagement plan. This Stakeholder Engagement Plan (SEP) w ill assist with managing and facilitating future engagement through the various stages of the Project’s life cycle from exploration through to construction, operations, closure and rehabilitation. This SEP adopts an inclusive life-of-mine perspective. It details engagement undertaken with stakeholders during different sates of the Project and serves as a guide the stakeholders at different levels. The SEP seeks to define a technically and culturally appropriate approach to consultation and disclosure. The goal of this SEP is to improve and facilitate decision making and create an atmosphere of understanding that actively involves project-affected people and other stakeholders in a timely manner, and that these groups are provided sufficient opportunity to voice their opinions and concerns that may influence Project decisions. The SEP is included in Section 9 of this document1. 1.1 EIA procedure On 18 December 2017 the Law of Ukraine "On Environmental Impact Assessment" (hereinafter referred to as the Law) entered into force, introducing the permits - the conclusion on the assessment of the environmental impact (hereinafter - the Conclusion. According to the Law, an environmental impact assessment is required when deciding on "planned activities", namely: construction, reconstruction, technical re-equipment, expansion, re-engineering, liquidation (disassembly) of objects, other interference with the natural environment. The list of objects requiring a conclusion is defined by parts 2 and 3 of Article 3 of the Law. The procedure for obtaining the conclusion of the EIA consists of several stages: - submission of notice related to planned activities to the local state administration (or directly to the Ministry of Environment) on the planned activity, which is subject to an environmental impact assessment, containing the information specified in part 2 of Article 5 of the Law. Next, the local state administration or the Ministry of Environment publish a notice and enter the data into the Unified Register of Environmental Impact Assessment. The public may comment on the planned activity within 20 working days from the date of its promulgation. In the preparation of the Environmental Impact Assessment report the entity considers fully, takes into account partially or substantially rejects the comments and suggestions of the public. In this case, the law does not provide for the possibility of administrative or judicial appeal against the refusal to take into account comments. - Preparation of the Report, which contains a description of the planned activities, justifiable alternatives, the current state of the environment, environmental factors that are likely to be affected, the description and assessment of possible environmental impacts, a description of the methods of forecasting, description of the measures aimed at preventing negative effects, description of the expected significant negative impact , identification of all difficulties, all comments and suggestions received, summary of the monitoring program. - Conducting a public discussion of the planned activities after submission of the report on environmental impact assessment in the form of public hearings and in the form of submitting written comments and proposals (including in electronic form). The procedure for conducting public hearings in the process of environmental impact assessment is established by the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine. At the moment, this order is not set. As a result, the local state administration (or the Ministry of Environmental Protection) is preparing a public discussion report, which includes information on "full consideration, partial accounting or substantiated deviation" of comments and suggestions from the public. "Unreasonable and unreasonable non-consideration or incorrect consideration" may further serve as a basis for the Cancellation of the Opinion in court. Any individual may challenge the conclusion on the grounds that his remarks were not taken into account. - Obtaining of Conclusion on the assessment of the environmental impact of the relevant body. The conclusion is mandatory for implementation, is taken into account when deciding on the implementation of planned activities and may be the reason for refusal to issue a decision on the implementation of planning activities. The conclusion determines the requirements for the work of the planned object, in particular, the requirements for the use of territory and natural resources, requirements for environmental protection and measures for the prevention of emergencies are established. In addition, an undertaking may be required to carry out compensatory measures, to carry out an additional assessment of the environmental impact, to organize post-project monitoring. The Conclusion is issued within 25 working days from the day the public discussion is completed. The decision on the implementation of the planned activity must be taken by the relevant body within 5 years from the date of issue of the Opinion, otherwise it will expire. An environmental impact assessment report, a public discussion report, and an opinion on the environmental impact assessment are submitted by the entity to obtain a decision by a public authority or local authority on the implementation of the planned activity, which is the basis for initiating this activity. The Conclusion shall contain the environmental conditions that shall be observed throughout the activity. In the opposite case, the operation of the enterprise may be stopped by a court decision. The Low does not apply to business entities that have received a Decision on the implementation of planned activities. Thus, the exclusion does not apply to cases where reconstruction, technical re-equipment, overhaul or conversion of existing objects is planned, if such actions will have a significant effect on the environment. Regulation in consultation and disclosure • Citizens of Ukraine have the right to participate in public consultations, have access to information and have the right to appeal the decisions of the authorities.

World Bank rules and procedures/ IFC’ EHS Guidance Per the WB safeguards policies, EA is a process of the pre-implementation stage which evaluates a project’s potential environmental risks and impacts in its area of influence; examines project alternatives; identifies ways of improving project selection, sitting, planning, design, and implementation by preventing, minimizing, mitigating, or compensating for adverse environmental impacts and enhancing positive impacts; and includes the process of mitigating and managing adverse environmental impacts throughout project implementation. EA is mandatory for projects, which may potentially have negative impacts. Furthermore, a well- organized public participation is mandatory in all the stages of the process. Depending on the project, a range of instruments can be used to satisfy the Bank’s EA requirements: Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA), Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA), regional or sectorial EA, environmental audit, hazard or risk assessment and/or Environmental and Social Management Plan (ESMP). Environmental screening. The Bank undertakes environmental screening of each proposed project to determine the appropriate extent and type of EA. The Bank classifies the proposed project into one of four categories, depending on the type, location, sensitivity, and scale of the project and the nature and magnitude of its potential environmental impacts. The Bank's OP/BP/GP 4.01 provides for the following environmental categories of projects: Category A: A proposed project is classified as Category A if it is likely to have significant adverse environmental impacts that are sensitive, diverse, or unprecedented. EA for a Category A project requires a full EIA Assessment. Category B: A proposed project is classified as Category B if its potential adverse environmental impacts on human populations or environmentally key areas - including wetlands, forests, grasslands, and other natural habitats – are less adverse than those of Category A projects. These impacts are site-specific; few if any of them are irreversible; and in most cases mitigatory measures can be designed more readily than for Category A projects. The EA for a Category B projects examines the project’s potential negative and positive environmental impacts and recommends specific measures needed to prevent, minimize, mitigate, or compensate for adverse impacts and improve environmental performance. The findings and results of Category B EA are described in the project documentation (Project Appraisal Document and Project Information Document). Category C: A proposed project is classified as Category C if it is likely to have minimal or no adverse environmental impacts. Beyond screening, no further EA action is required for a Category C project. The Project UDHEEP was defined as category B Based on the results of the study the following WB OPs will be triggered by the projects (see Table 1.2.1 below): Table 1.

During the development of thermal power projects, proponents should consider alternative solutions including technical suitability and trade-offs between capital and operating costs involved in the use of different technologies with documented reasoning of why the selected option is the most feasible. New facilities should be aimed to be in the top quartile of energy efficiency Rehabilitation of existing facilities must achieve significant improvements in efficiency. Plants should use high performance monitoring and process control techniques, good design, and maintenance of the combustion system, so that initially designed efficiency, and GHG emission performance can be maintained..

While the basic provisions of the National EA rules and procedures are to some extent similar to the WB requirements, there are several significant differences. These differences are related primarily to the following: (a) project environmental screening categories; (b) Environmental and Social Management Plan; (c) EA disclosure and public consultation; and (d) EA reviewing process, e) grievance redress mechanism. Differences concerning ESMP. Despite the fact that national legislation requires that all appropriate environmental impact mitigation measures be applied to all projects, it does not require the development of a specific SPS, which should be specified along with the proposed mitigation measures, the plan monitoring and reporting requirements, institutional mechanisms for the implementation of the SES. National legislation also does not require the necessary steps to be taken to strengthen the capacity and the necessary costs in this regard. An evaluation of the national environmental protection and social impacts mitigation legislation of Ukraine and WB procedures and its meaning for the Project is presented in this chapter. The environmental legislation of Ukraine mainly has been developed to provide control of activities and to control adverse impacts on the environment and human health. The development of EIA does not complie with the best international practice at all times, which includes a significant component of ongoing evaluation in an iterative process. The preparation of EIA in Ukraine is more statistical process, which more focusing in the calculation of emissions, which charges for emissions are paid and less focusing on the analysis and conclusions with the understanding of ad- verse impact and measurements on their avoidance and mitigation. Data collection process for report is not always related with the goal of EIA and with the project framework. Public procedures in Ukraine are not always adapted for monitoring during the project construction. The content of environmental plans includes only the description of the overall mitigation and monitoring of impacts, without information on the place and the responsible entities, focusing on references on regulations and standards, and has little value for the contractors. Standards are used as limits beyond which pollution is permitted with compensation payment. The comparison in the legislation is presented in the Table 1.3.1 Table 4. Differences between Ukrainian legislation and the requirements of the World Bank's Operational Policy on Resettlement (OP 4.12) Ukraine Laws and Regulations WB Standards There does not appear to be a ‘most sensitive’ Projects are categorized according to the most sensitive rule. The sensitivity of project is measured by component, e.g. if 6 of 7 components are not sensitive and one the criteria included in the Decree of the Cabinet is sensitive, then the entire project becomes a Category A or B. of Ministers of Ukraine dated 13 December 2017 ref.: 1010 as per Law of Ukraine “On Environmental Impact Assessmentâ€? Ukraine has a procedure of public consultation Public consultation is a requirement for WB. The World Bank but mainly participate state sector and rarely requires 2 hearings for full ESIA and 1 hearing for the projects involves a common citizen. of the category B. For full EIA reports, public hearings must be conducted at the earlier stage of EIA preparation and EAP or at the stage of the possible impact research. For the projects of the B category the public hearings on the stage of impact determination is more useful, although the exact time depends from the main eco- logical problems and the proponent’s wishes. Public hearings must be announcing and for full EIA preliminary notices about hearings and contact data must be published in the media for several weeks in advance before the hearings. Only registered structures/buildings are All affected structures/buildings are compensated for damages/ compensated for damages/ demolition caused demolition caused by a project at replacement cost by a project Only official land users are compensated for Lease tenants whether legal (registered) or illegal (informal) are loss of income/business compensated for income/business losses regardless of the registration.

In case the gaps identified above are affecting the processes described in the RPF the WB OP 4.12 provisions will prevail.1 2. Project Background. Description of current condition of heating system The MPU "Khersonteploenergo" is a municipal utility that produces, transports and sells heat in Kherson. The company provides about 50 percent of centralized heat supply in the city. Kherson CHP is another great producer of heat, which accounts for about 47 percent of the total. The remaining 3% is supplied by a small privately owned company “Teplogeneneratsiyaâ€?. Household consumers are the main subscribers of “Khersonteploenergoâ€?, which account for 82% of the heat energy used, then budget institutions (14%) and commercial enterprises (4%). The MPU "Khersonteploenergo" was established in 2001 as a result of the merger of the existing district heating company with some smaller producers of thermal energy. The company belongs to the municipality of Kherson and has full asset management rights. Assets and their depreciation are included in the balance sheet of the company. The company employs 466 employees. Construction of the Kherson centralized district heating system began more than 40 years ago. The main technologies and solutions for building boiler houses, pipelines and heating and water supply networks in buildings are based on the technical 1 WB OP 4.12 is more explicit as compared to Ukrainian legislation regarding such issues as: resettlement planning and procedural requirements; public hearings and local participation in the project affected areas; types of compensation offered and, if necessary, other assistance to affected persons; compensation payment to all categories of affected persons; property assessment of eligible persons; livelihood restoration; compensation for informal users of the property or the property rights; compensation for informal businesses; and protection of vulnerable groups (poor and landless persons, women, elderly, minorities etc.) standards of the former Soviet Union. The average age of equipment and boiler houses is about 20 years, the main blocks are 1978-1997. Since the collapse of the Soviet Union, no new large boiler houses have been created. Only a few small boilers (<0.3 Gcal / h) were recently installed. Technical information, boiler house: The demand for heat supply is fulfilled by 38 gas boiler houses with a total installed capacity of 563 Gcal / h. Most of the boiler-houses operated by "Khersonsteploenergo" - small size, with a capacity of 5 Kcal / g or less; however, there are several boiler houses with a capacity of 25 Gcal / h or more The largest boiler house (Ivana Bohuna, 95) is designed for production of 74.852 Gcal / h. The years of operation of boilers vary considerably from about 25 years old and older. Networks of district heating and heat substations: the length of the centralized heating network is 97 km in two-pipe equivalents; the linear density of the thermal load of MPU "Khersonteploenergo" is about 1.75 Gcal / hour per kilometer, which is considered acceptable for the district heating system to be competitive. The heat distribution technology currently used by MPU “Khersonteploenergoâ€? is based on a centralized heating system (CHU), without any modern IHS. The company has 46 CHSs. The load connected to the CHS is 116 Gcal / hour, 68 per cent of the total connected load (170 Gcal / hour); direct bonds make up another 32 percent. "Khersonsteploenergo" repaired five CHSs with modern central units (modern lamellar heat exchangers, automation, etc.). The four-pipe system is used only in one CHS, where MPU "Khersonteploenrego" supplies hot water. A two- pipe system providing heat only is used elsewhere. The pre-insulated pipe has not been applied on a substantial scale yet, most of the network uses underground pipes in concrete channels or overhead pipes, which are insulated with mineral wool. 95 percent of the pipelines are Isotermic pipes of the Soviet type, of which 65 percent are underground pipes in concrete channels, and 35 percent - above ground, mineral wool, insulated pipes, covered with metal plates. The company began using a pre-insulated polyurethane pipe in new networks. The current proportion of pre-insulated pipes is 4.6% of the total length. Estimated heat losses on the network amount to 45000 Gcal per year.

The proposed investment program is aimed at modernizing the heat supply system, increasing the efficiency of the heat supply system and reducing losses during the transportation of heat. The largest component is the boiler-house reconstruction. The company will install 13 IHSs and 200 heat meters, as well as launch the SCADA system. Reconstruction of boiler houses will allow to achieve significant savings in costs, reduce emissions and waste, as well as non-rational consumption of fuel and electricity. The proposed investment program is aimed at the reconstruction of six boiler houses and CHS, including the largest boiler-house in the Shumen district of the city, and the closure of inefficient boiler houses. This will be accompanied by the construction of new pipelines to redirect the heat supply to the newly renovated thermal power, as well as the restoration of old networks connected to renovated boiler houses. The existing pipeline will be replaced by new pre-insulated pipes; this will save fuel costs by reducing network losses. Boiler equipment with SCADA will significantly save operating costs. Installing IHU in residential buildings will reduce their heat consumption; the installation of heat meters will increase the share of consumption on the basis of the payment for residential consumption. Works Type 1 - the reconstruction of 6 boiler houses and 1 central heating station - the installation of energy efficient boilers equipped with modulated burners with oxygen and frequency regulation (allows for the smooth adjustment of the flaming flame and reduce the consumption of natural gas to 15%).

It should be emphasized separately that during the survey of existing heating networks to be reconstructed, according to the specifications, approved by the Customer, the location of small architectural forms, trade pavilions and planting of plants (cultural and self-elevating) was identified on the heating networks. In most cases, the heating networks (according to the specified diameters) will be laid in existing directions, with some exceptions, namely: 1. The heating network from TK120 to TK130, partly, in the area of the spontaneous market is proposed to be laid on the passage of the street Lavrenev (Scheme 1 – shemes are provided in Annex 2). 2. The heating network from TK131 to TK139 along the Dimitrov avenue is to be disconnected, and a residential building at 19, Budivelnykiv,should be switched over to the heating networks from the CHU-20 in the ТК20\5 district. (Scheme 3). 3. The heating network from TK-125 to СHS-8, taking into account the fact that the СHS does not work, lay in the direction of the heating system from TK8-4, TK8-3, TK8-2, TK8-1 with the re- connection of existing customers. (Scheme 4). 4. A residential house on 58 Illicha street, switching to the heating networks from TK8-14 at the branch of СHS -8. (Scheme 5). 5.

Envisaged Impacts of the Design Activities on Environmental and Social Fields 4.1 Summary for the Potential Project Impacts The activities of the proposed district heating rehabilitation program do not include any greenfield activities, all construction takes place within existing urban areas (see Table 6, 7, 8 for details). Most activities are confined within existing boiler house sites and buildings. The closure of some of the existing boiler houses with concurrent connection of existing separate heating networks requires building new heat transmission pipelines. The pipelines are usually placed along streets. In urban areas, most of the lines are placed underground and no permanent land acquisition is caused. The main activities of the proposed program/project causing disturbance in everyday life are: • Construction vehicles movements; • Demolition works: • Delivery of construction materials; • Operation of heavy machinery in the vicinity of schools and hospitals; • Vehicles transporting domestic/ construction/ hazardous waste; • Presence of workers on the territory of medical institutions and schools; • Sanitation issue on the territory of hospitals and schools Besides environmental impacts, any construction works may result in disturbance of everyday life, such as temporary or permanent land acquisition (Annex 3), traffic disturbances or access restrictions. The large- scale activities are not envisaged currently. In case the situation arises, and unplanned permanent resettlement would be subject to discussion. The Borrower will develop AbRAP or RAP, consult it and disclose. No civil works to be conducted before land plots are being legally allocated to the ownership of MPU â€?Khersonteploenergoâ€?. The representatives of RPIU has made careful screening of the objects as well as of the adjacent zones. No business or residential houses to be influenced directly were detected. The activities of the proposed district heating rehabilitation program do not include any greenfield activities, all construction takes place within existing urban areas. Most activities are confined within existing boiler house sites and buildings. The closure of some of the existing boiler houses with concurrent connection of existing separate heating networks requires building new heat transmission pipelines. The pipelines are typicallyplaced along streets. In urban areas, most of the lines are placed over ground, because of the project implementation it is expected that the pipelines will go underground, so no permanent land occupation is needed to be acquired from the private or public owners.

Significant increase in noise is expected during works, due to various construction and transport activities. The main sources of noise during construction and demolition work are traffic, use of machinery, handling of materials, assembling of new boilers, pipelines etc. and demolishing of old infrastructure (i.e. boiler houses and other facilities). Noise may c. Noise Short-term Local, high affect construction workers if they are not using proper individual protective gear thus causing occupational health risks. Noise may also disturb people living and working near the sites. Especially hospitals, schools and other sensitive objects are of particular concern. Rainfall runoff from the construction sites may pollute the soil in the parks whereby the mainline heating pipe will be rehabilitated.

Where the construction works require excavating across streets, temporary alternate routes need to be arranged or temporary bridges constructed. When the works will affect routes of the public transport, the utility must coordinate with the municipality and the traffic operator the alternative route of transport and inform the population in advance, for example in buses, bus stops, on the route affected, on company website and in public media. Access restrictions As the works will mostly be conducted at utility-owned sites, access restrictions to public services and institutions will be limited. Minor temporary restrictions may be caused where the construction works require excavating across streets. In such cases the temporary routes must be arranged and the safety of the public be ensured by protective fences and other guidance as needed. The construction/ rehabilitation works will bring to limited access to some of the area owned/ used by the public utility companies. However, the reconstruction works will not affect private houses and will not bring to any restricted or limited access to their courtyards and use of public roads. Proper screening will be done prior to the start of civil works to make sure no private households are being affected by construction. However, the social impact needs to be mitigated and a site-specific ESMP (or AbRAP if necessory), included a mobility and access facilitation measures, developed and implemented by the Construction Company during rehabilitation works. The requirement for preparation of the plan shall be required in the bidding documents and under the terms of contract. Disturbance of business The works may cause disturbance to normal business or other services operations by causing temporary traffic or access restrictions or requiring utilization of alternative routes. As the works will mainly be conducted on utility sites, no major disturbance is expected. The utility must coordinate with the affected business and service operators to limit the disturbance by, where possible, choosing most suitable time for conducting works to minimize losses. Where the alternative routes are required, information needs to be given on websites of the utility and affected companies and in public media. Resettlement None of the proposed activities of the proposed program require or cause temporary or permanent physical resettlement of people. Moreover, the works will be mainly conducted off the heating season and thus will cause only limited nuisance for living conditions. Construction works will take place mainly within existing boiler house sites and thus will minimize economic displacement. Construction of new district heat pipelines transmission lines do not require dismantling apartment buildings. The Project is not expected to have any adverse economic or social impacts. The project may require permanent acquisition of the municipal land area rented out for business activities. In such cases relevant substitute land or monetary compensation for the losses will be provided to tenants and Ab-RAP with detailed impact and compensation measures prepared/disclosed. Only temporary effects are expected, and they will be easily mitigated by either providing the compensation for the period of disturbance or alternative place for trade or parking. All land plots on which works will be carried out at the disposal of MPU "Khersonteploenergo". The Gender Dimension The stakeholder and PAPs analysis has identified that the there is no direct gender dimension impact. Meanwhile, the objects under rehabilitation provide heating to the institutions where most employees are women. This will have major impact on the working conditions of women. Women are expected to be the key beneficiaries of the Project, as improved heating services will impact them directly. During implementation the Project will disaggregate customer satisfaction data collected by gender to ensure the voices of women are reflected and help to inform the company’s strategy to improve service provision. Women will also be engaged in community monitoring activities. Information campaigns will formulate gender-targeted messages and utilize varying tools to reach out to both men and women. The implementing agency will adopt a number of measures to ensure that community consultations will involve women that will be included in the Operational Manual The categories of people affected by the project are: residents of Kherson (both employees and end users), especially inhabitants of houses adjacent to the sites of work, patients and staff of the Center for the Rehabilitation of Children with Disabilities. 4.2.1 Information about connected customers Among the connected consumers are hospitals, schools and residential buildings. MPE "Khersonteploenergo", in cooperation with the Contractor, will prepare a schedule of work that will not affect the heating season. If necessary, during the heating season, current customers will be switched over to other suppliers of heat energy. The cutomers will be notified in advance about this. Connected customers Boiler house at 161, Makarov str. • 9 (nine) two-storeyed and five-story buildings; • 2 (two) administrative buildings. Boiler house at 37, Kupetska str. • 7 (seven) multistory dwelling houses; • 1 (one) kindergardens. Boiler house on the 95, Bohun str. • 221 (two hundred and twenty one) dwelling house; • 7 (seven) student mitories; • 17 (seventeen) administrative buildings; • 12 (twelve) kindergartens; • 11 (eleven) schools; • 4 (four) educational institutions; • (two) hospitals; • 1 (one) specialized children's home. Boiler house on 3, Nebesna Sotnia str • 10 (ten) two-storeyed and five-story houses; • 1 (one) administrative building. Boiler house on 17, Nebesna Sotnia str • 10 (ten) two-storeyed and five-story houses; • 1 (one) center for the rehabilitation of disabled children; • 1 (one) kindergarten; • 13 (thirteen) multistory dwelling houses. Boiler house on 25, Nebesna Sotnia str • 1 (one) Kherson Naval School; • 5 (five) dwelling houses. 4.2.2 Socially sensitive objects of the project and Specific mitigation measures Vulnerable and sensitive categories of people 1) Social screening revealed that the Rehabilitation Center for Disabled Children (address: 4, Stepan Razin str.,) falls under the influence of the project. During the site survey, it was discovered that the pipes of the heating system that are to be replaced are under the flower bed and the trees grown by the workers of the given rehabilitation center. Picture 4. Green plantations in front of the entrance to the center for the rehabilitation of disabled children on 4, Stepan Razin str. The centre for the rehabilitation of disabled children Is functional all year After dialogue with the representatives of the Center it was decided that in this case, the work on replacing the pipes should be carried out by puncture method. In addition, the Contractor will agree with the management of the Rehabilitation Center a schedule of work in advance. Sheme 4. Locaton of heat network along the Rehabilitation center 2) Particular attention should be paid to work on the replacement of heat pipes on the street. Lavrenev Current pipelines are under the territory of the Shumen market. So, analyzing alternatives and reducing social pressures, it was decided to redirect part of the network to a street that runs along the market (see chart below). Picture 5. Pre-approved variant of placement of new heat network Taking into account that the Lavrenev street is a public transport route, so during the construction work it is necessary to provide detour routes by arranging additional routes. MPE "Khersonteploenergo" should pay attention to the fact that public transport is free of charge for the elderly, and most passengers are actually such citizens, therefore alternative routes of public transport should be provided. Scheme 5. Location of heat network along Lavreniova str. 3) Children's playground is located on the land plot next to the boiler house on 3, Merchant str. It shall be dismantled during the works. Picture 5. Children’s playground which shall be temporary dismantled. After replacing the pipelines, the MPU "Khersonteploenergo" will restore the children's playground and install new children's swings. The Contractor will be required to provide standard negative impact minimization measures specified in this ESMP, except for the following sections, where further steps should be implemented. A specific AbARAP for heating networks reconstruction will be prepared. Public safety and traffic issues: • Install fences in the construction sites to prevent access by unauthorized persons • Use caution tape and warning signs at the construction sites around trenches and excavations • Deliver construction equipment and materials to the construction sites outside schools’ sessions such as in the evening or weekends • Speed limit for all vehicles should be less than 10 km/h • Do not park at unauthorized places to reduce the risk of accidents • Install temporary road signs at junctions to the beneficiary institutions during the delivery of construction equipment and materials • Ensure delivery trucks are in good condition to prevent breakdowns on roads • Remove all construction equipment from the site completion of works • Observe the safety precautions for handling cranes (Order of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine dated January 19, 2018, No. 92 "On Approval of Labor Protection Rules for the Operation of Lifting Cranes, Lifting Devices and Related Equipment" • Ensure constant compliance with fire regulations • Allow permanent alternative shipping routes • Thermal supply is provided without interruption. • Develop a plan for emergency water supply in the event of disconnection of water through construction work. 5. Health and Safety Protection Measures on Site The appointed contractor will identify potential hazards and develop responses (including design, testing, choice, substitution, installation, arrangement, organization, use and maintenance of workplaces, working environment and work processes) to eliminate sources of risk or minimize workers’ exposure to hazards. Where hazards are inherent to the project activity, or it is otherwise not feasible to eliminate the hazard, residual risks shall be managed through appropriate protective measures, such as controlling the hazard at source through protective solutions and by providing adequate personal protective equipment at no cost to the worker. Training must be provided to all workers on all relevant aspects of occupational health and safety associated with their daily work, including emergency arrangements. Third parties (visitors and external service providers) must be briefed on the relevant aspects of health and safety and emergency response when accessing the premises. The appointed contractor must document and report occupational injuries, illnesses and fatalities. It is recommended that a process for reporting near misses and unsafe behaviors be developed as a proactive approach to occupational health and safety risk management. Adequate access to first aid and medical assistance in cases of work related accidents or injuries must be provided. The overall site management system must be designed with adequate capacity for oversight of occupational health and safety matters.Physical hazard to workers must be adequately assessed in may include (but not limited to the aspects included in Table Physical Hazards to Workers Table 10.

Hazardous materials â–  Identify potential risk of a spill of uncontrolled hazardous materials and prepare a spill control, prevention, and countermeasure plan. â–  Make available all personal protective equipment needed to respond to an emergency. Emergency accidents RPIU will, thought-out the life of the project, continue to assess possible risks to the communities as it relates to emergency incidents (such as the uncontrolled/fugitive emission and fire). Specific and timely information on appropriate behavior and safety measures must be adopted in the event of an accident. Communities and other stakeholders will have access to information necessary to understand the nature of the possible effect of an accident and an opportunity to contribute effectively, as appropriate, to decisions concerning hazardous installations and the development of community emergency preparedness and response plans. Specific attention must be given to the transportation of any hazardous materials. A procedure must be developed to ensure compliance with local laws and international requirements relating to the transport of hazardous materials, including waste classification and hazard analysis, labelling, emergency response approach, vehicle and container specifications, training of the drivers, risks associated with the transportation route etc. Where the consequences of emergency events are likely to extend beyond the project boundary (e.g. hazardous material spill during transportation on public roads), emergency response plans must be developed based on the risks to the health and safety of the affected community and other potentially affected stakeholders. Emergency plans must address the following aspects of emergency response and preparedness: â–ª Specific emergency response procedures. â–ª Communication strategy. â–ª Trained emergency response teams. â–ª Emergency contacts and communication systems/protocols. 6.

Grievance Redress Mechanism (GRM) The overall objective of the GRM Guideline is to establish an effective communication channel among the concerned parties for providing a timely and efficient two -way feedback mechanism to address any complaints made about the project, including those from members of the communities, local businesses and other concerned parties, as well as raising public awareness on the projects and on the availability of a GRM. The Grievance redress procedure suggests resolution of grievances in the spirit of mediation between the parties, and should comply with the spirit of IFI standards and practice The GRM will be available for those living or working in the areas impacted by the project activities. Any person impacted by or concerned about the project activities will have the right to participate in the GRM, will have easy access to it, and will be encouraged to use it. The proposed GRM does not replace the public grievance redress and conflict resolution mechanisms envis-aged by the legal system of Ukraine but attempts to minimize use of it to the extent possible. The project will pursue a participatory approach in all stages of planning and implementation. This is expected to ensure that the affected people have nothing or little to complain about. However, some people may remain dissatisfied for some reason or the other. Many grievances arise due to inadequate understanding of project policies and procedures and can be promptly resolved by properly explaining the situation to the compliant. MPU “Khersonteploenergoâ€? will implement the Grievance Redress Mechanism. Special attention will be paid to training of MPU “Khersonteploenergoâ€? staff involved in the grievance mechanism management regarding functioning of grievance redress mechanism, particularly the coMPElsory reactions to stakeholder’s opinion and communication mechanism. Complainants or concerned parties may visit local MPU “Khersonteploenergoâ€?, call or send a letter or e-mail or fax to grievance redress coordinator, or oblast administration to register their grievances related to heating project. Each party participating in the GM at regional level shall maintain a record-book to register the complaints, and regularly share the grievance details with PIU coordinator, to keep the track of grievances and the status of their resolution. Whichever method is used for receiving the grievance (e.g. e-mail, mail, fax, call, etc.), its registration will be made by the GRM coordinator at the regional level, who will acknowledge receipt and follow up with the grievance investigation and consideration by the GRM at regional level. All the grievances will be recorded in a standard format. The GRM coordinator at regional level will collect the data on grievances and centralize the grievance registry to assure that every affected person, group or community has an individual registry number and that follow-up and corrective actions are implemented as per resolution pro- vided, or if the issue was not resolved at regional level, it is passed for consideration at the central level. The grievance database will be maintained and updated twice a month by the GRM coordinator at regional level for each project. The database will be designed to make it simple and easy to input data, provide information on grievance and status of its resolution, timing for resolution and level at which the issue was considered and resolved, track individual grievances, etc. In case the complainant refuses to provide contact details, or no contact information is available in the grievance received by e-mail / mail / fax, the person in charge for grievances at the regional level will consider the anonymous complaint. In such cases, the printed response will be posted at the information board of MPU “Khersonteploenergoâ€?, as well as at the information board of the relevant city authority, so that the complaining party could get familiarized with the feedback. Grievance process outline, and Grievance Form are accordingly given below. The following indicative timeframe will be used: • Written acknowledgement of receipt of the grievance: within 5 days of receiving the grievance, • proposed resolution: within 4 weeks of receiving the grievance – in case of more difficult issues the required time may be longer. Depending on the nature of grievance, this step may include verification, investigation, negotiation, mediation or arbitration, coordination with appropriate agencies and decision-making. Verification includes collection of documents, proofs and facts, as well as clarifying background in- formation in order to have a clear picture of the circumstances surrounding the grievance case. Verification will be undertaken by members of the GM at the regional level, and overall coordination of activities will be ensured by the GRM coordinator on regional level. Results of verification or fact-finding activities will be presented at the meeting of the GRM at regional level, where the issue will be considered, and resolution will be sought out. If a grievance cannot be resolved by the GM at the regional level and is forwarded for consideration by the GRM at the central level, appropriate documents collected during investigation and fact-finding shall be shared with the GRM coordinator at the central level. Consideration of grievance case by GRM at central level may require further verification of the issue, including collection of additional documents, obtaining input from various state concerned parties and project parties to have a clear picture of the circumstances surrounding the grievance case. Results of verification will be presented at the meeting at the central level, where the issue will be considered, and resolution will be sought out. If amicable solution is not found either of the parties could file case to the court. The Grievance Procedure should include the following actions: • Information about the Project implementation will be published on separate MPU “Khersonteploenergoâ€? website, including link to obtain the grievance form, • General information about the Project, presenting general project issues, project implementation stages, and including information about the grievance possibilities will be published and distributed in form of the brochure by MPU “Khersonteploenergoâ€?, • MPU “Khersonteploenergoâ€? will establish phone communication lines, and present phone line numbers on above mentioned websites and in brochure, • The information on the avenues to lodge a grievance will be placed on the information boards of local authorities, • MPU “Khersonteploenergoâ€? will nominate the person (Project Coordinator), who will deal with grievances. A workers’ grievance redress mechanism will be established for the employees of construction companies as a part of general system or separately. Contractors of construction works will be informed by MPU “Khersonteploenerhoâ€? about necessity of implementation grievance mechanism for their employees in line with the requirements of the WB. Contractors of construction works will be given the possibility to lodge grievances both through workers representatives and trade unions and independently, personally, regardless of the matter of the complaint. To assess the effectiveness of the system it is planned that internal audits of grievance mechanism will be undertaken periodically in the organization.
