This lagging is primarily due to the delay in the construction activities. There have been delays by Bangladesh Power Development Board (BPDB), the implementing agency in making critical decisions that are affecting project schedule. With much delay, BPDB had recently removed the live overhead gas pipeline for units 5 & 6 from the project site. The decision on the sizing of the gas line to the Regulatory Metering Station (RMS) is yet to be finalized by BPDB. There are also delays by the Owner’s Engineer in reviewing and clearing the design drawings. These delays have already affected the contractor's work and project milestones. Two priority activities for the contractor are: a) For the protection of the environment, the oil separator system along with the effluent treatment plant needs to be constructed and made operational at the earliest; and b) Fire-fighting system needs to be made operational without any further delay. These have been discussed with BPDB and they are advised to follow up closely with the EPC contractor. Safeguard compliance at the project site has improved. Initially, there were some delays in submitting the environmental monitoring reports as well as several observations of lack of proper housekeeping at the site. However, after the Owner’s Engineer had come aboard, the conditions regarding safeguard compliance have significantly improved. Quarterly progress reports are being prepared which also log the safeguard activities being carried out at site. A health and safety policy plan has been prepared, a contract has been made with the nearby hospital to provide ambulance and medical services during emergency and fire drill is being organized at regular intervals. With about 160 plus Chinese workers working at the Ghorashal site, it was agreed that an Influx Management Plan (IMP) for the project would be prepared and implemented by the EPC contractor. A field visit by the social team was carried out, interviews taken with the communities, the contractor and other relevant stakeholders. The implementation of the IMP would be monitored by the supervision consultants, BPDB and the Bank. A grievance redress committee has also been formed as per recommendations of the ESIA report and regular meetings being conducted. Two complain boxes have been set up - one at the Project office and the other at the construction site of the project. The boxes are clearly marked in Bengali and English languages. The committee will also arrange a Register Book in order to document the complains received, if any.
