(2) Temporary land occupation

The temporary occupied lands mainly include temporary construction plant,

borrow area and spoil ground, temporary soil piling yard and temporary construction

detour, etc.

1) Temporary construction plant

The living quarter for constructors of the project is supported by the villages

nearby and no living quarter will specially be established for constructors. In order to

make the maintenance and storage of construction machineries more convenient, a

temporary construction plant with a floor area of 1000m2 is set at the road crossing of

Binjiangdong Lu and Fanggui Beilu.

2) Borrow area and spoil ground

As the sandstone and earthwork employed to the project are outsourced, no borrow

area or spoil ground needs to be set for the project. The project is in the fill section and

only a small amount of unavailable excavation area (like stonework) can be deemed as

spoil dump. The construction waste shall be gathered together in different classifications

for recycling as much as possible. The unavailable construction waste and household

garbage shall be uniformly disposed by environmental sanitation department.

3) Temporary soil piling yard

As the filling amount is far more than the excavation amount, more earthworks

shall be outsourced. Two temporary soil piling yards with a total floor area of 1500m2

shall be respectively set in Jiangbin Donglu and Fanggui Beilu within the red line area

of the project for temporary stacking for surface soil during the site grading excavation

and for convenient reusing for landscape engineering along the line during late period of

road construction.

4) Temporary construction detour

No temporary construction detour needs to be set as existing village road can be

directly used as the temporary construction detour for the project. The details of

temporary land occupation are shown in Table 1-6.

Total 3 4000

(3) Rationality analysis for temporary land site selection

The temporary lands for the project include one temporary construction plant and two temporary soil piling yards and the total floor area is 4000m2. Please refer to the following photo for the specific location. The rationality analyses for temporary land site selection are listed as follow:

1) No land will be occupied as temporary land for the project and both the

construction plant and the soil piling yard can be set within the red line scope.

2) Temporary construction plant can be set at the road crossing of Jiangbin Donglu

and Fanggui Beilu to be convenient for the storage and maintenance of construction

machineries as well as the construction of the two roads. Two temporary soil piling

yards can be respectively set in Jiangbin Donglu and Fanggui Beilu to be convenient for

the surface soil stacking and reduce the water and soil loss during the transportation

process.

3) The soil piling yard is flat to be convenient for the piling up of surface soil, the

blocking of the temporary soil piling yard and drainage arrangement. The soil piling

yard is able to accommodate all the surface soil.

4) The temporary construction plant and the temporary soil piling yard are far from

the Royal Rioera Bay Residential area, No.3 Middle School of Quzhou Zhejiang

Province and Paimen Natural Village to reduce the bad effect on the environment

sensitive spots caused by the noise and dust produced in the construction.

According to the analyses above, the site location is reasonable for the temporary

land of the project from an environmental point of view.

2.4.4 Current ecological environment(1) Current regional ecological environment

1) Vegetation

The project site lies in Quzhou – the northern sub-zone of evergreen broadleaf

forest in mid-subtropical region, mainly covered by evergreen broadleaf forest, Chinese

fir forest, masson pine forest, evergreen mixed conifer and broadleaved and economic

forest. Frequent human activities happen in the project area, where cultivated plants

flourish while native vegetation barely exists. Agricultural vegetation is dominant plants

within the assessment scope. Hills along the project area are generally covered by

secondary forest vegetation, scrub-grassland, and cultivated fruits trees. The area will be

transformed into a urban ecological system mainly with cultivated greening vegetation

under urban construction.

2) Wildlife

Since frequent human activities, e.g. farmland development and other human's

production and living activities for a long time, happen within assessment scope of the

project, the native vegetation there barely survive. Agricultural vegetation of few

varieties dominate in the area, resulting in undiversified living environment and thus

poor wildlife resources.

3) Water and soil loss

34

In reference to the Notice of Provincial Major Water and Soil Loss Prevention Area

(ZZF[1999]No.141), the project area does not sit in national or provincial major water

and soil loss prevention areas. Mild loss of native surface water and soil mainly happen

within project area principally due to water erosion caused by rain and surface runoff;

surface erosion chiefly takes place. The average of erosion modulus for native soil in

project construction area is 300t/km2·a, less than 500t/km2·a – the allowable value of

soil erosion intensity in Zhejiang.

(2) Current ecological environment along road

1) Land utilization

The permanent project land of 66059m2 for planned traffic space is now used as

farmland. No drinking water source conservation area shall exist within the proposed

area. The temporary project land of 4000m2 for 1 planned temporary construction site

and 2 temporary surface soil fields is also mainly used as farmland now. Temporary

land lies within the proposed project land.

2) Investigation and assessment of current ecological environment along road

According to spot-surveying and investigation analysis of area along road,

farmland (more) and villages (less) occupy land in the area, where secondary or

cultivated vegetation mainly including common plants (such as eucalyptus grandis,

masson pine, fruit trees, and crops, etc.) extensively grow and no famous trees or

national and local protected species exist. Human activities exert a relatively great

influence on vegetation.

Roadbed clearing works – →roadbed construction – →various pipelines

construction – →pavement construction – →auxiliary facilities construction –

→completion & application – →operation management

① Roadbed clearing works

Topsoil of road segment shall be cleared first and then roadbed filling shall be

performed prior to construction of the works. Both mechanical method and manual

method shall be applied to clear topsoil, with roadbed clearing thickness of 10~35cm,

and the cleared topsoil shall be stored in the designated temporary place to use for

landscaping or second ploughing in later period of construction.

② Roadbed construction

Earth and stone for roadbed construction shall be mainly excavated and filled with

machine, supplemented by manual operation. Medium and small-sized machines shall

be mainly applied, and earth & stone shall be stored in a designated place and protective

measures shall be taken. Roadbed construction steps are as follows:

A. Earth adaptation

The close-by earth and excavation earth along the construction site shall be taken

into account and used as roadbed earth. The reasonable haul distance shall be

determined according to the on-site actual conditions and the supervising engineer’s

designation during the construction.

B. Roadbed filling

Roadbed filling of the engineering shall follow the construction process, i.e.

excavated by excavator → transported by dumper → paved and leveled by bulldozer →

compacted by road roller, adopting one coordinated process of machines, i.e. all

excavation, loading, transportation, paving, leveling, compacting and inspection are

36

completed with machines and advanced instruments. Longitudinal slope, cross slope,

flatness and elevation for roadbed shall be controlled according to the plan when filling

earth, and bulldozer shall be applied to level and fill earth, and then manually amend

and fill the earth to meet the required filling thickness by taking the height of sample

piles densely placed at the middle road part and road camber as standard, after that, road

roller shall be applied to compact the earth. (If soil property is excessively dry, spray

proper amount of water and then compact the earth to avoid dust rising and blowing.).

C. Method for paving

The method of horizontal stratification and parallel paving shall be applied during

the filling, the lay-down thickness of each layer shall base on the data tested in trial

pavement section and approved by supervising engineer, and before paving the next

layer, the last layer shall be compacted as required compactness in specification, and the

top surface shall be reserved with 2%~4% of two-way cross slope, once filling one

layer, land leveler shall be applied to level it to keep it parallel to the final roadbed

surface, and then compaction construction can be started.

D. Roadbed compaction

Compaction machine: 15t~25t vibratory roller. Before the compaction, the tester

shall be employed to test the optimum water content and maximum dry density of on-

site original earth and borrow earth to use them as comparison standard of compactness.

Roadbed shall be compacted with both light-duty roller and heavy-duty roller,

adopting heavy-duty compaction standard. When compacting, the road section that

cannot be compacted with road roller shall be compacted with frog hammer or manual

compaction method; when compacting roadbed, follow the related rules, including from

light one to heavy one, static compaction to vibratory compaction, slow to fast, sides to

middle parts, high to low, and track overlapping, etc.; after compacting roadbed, there

shall be free of decompaction, spring, frost boiling and uneven surface, etc. Soil

roadbed elevation, longitudinal & transverse slope and flatness shall be adjusted again

after compacting, soil compaction cutting ring method test shall be performed to each

filling layer, and each layer shall be provided with the supervisor’s signature &

acceptance, after that, start filling the next layer till the roadbed elevation.

③ Various pipelines construction

37

Various pipelines construction and roadbed construction shall be performed

simultaneously to avoid repeated excavation.

④ Pavement works

All road surfaces shall be asphalt concrete pavement, the bituminous concrete is

processed in bituminous concrete mixing equipment plant and is paved with bituminous

concrete paver, and the compaction construction is performed with double-drum

vibratory roller and pneumatic tyred roller.

A. Transportation: dumper is applied to transport materials from bituminous

concrete mixing equipment plant to construction site, and dumper is covered with truck

cover when transporting. On the constructon site, there will be no asphalt concrete

mixing station to be set up.

B. Paving: self-leveling pitch paver is applied to pave and level, when paving,

bituminous mixture shall be paved in a gradual, uniform and continuous manner.

Switching of speed or half-way stop at will is forbidden. The mixture height inside the

spiral feeder of paving machines shall not be less than 2/3 of feeder height. No

segregation is allowed at the full width section of paving machine. Places where the

machine is unable to pave and renovate, manual paving and renovation are allowed after

the approval of supervision engineer.

C. Compaction: Once the asphalt mixture paving is leveled, and the irregular

surface is repaired, comprehensive and uniform compaction is performed. Initial rolling

shall be performed under the high temperature after paving the mixture, with asphalt

mixture temperature no less than 120℃, and double-drum vibratory roller shall be

applied to compact. Re-rolling shall be performed after initial rolling, and the asphalt

mixture temperature shall not be less than 90℃. Pneumatic tyred roller is used in

coordination with three-roll road roller, and re-rolling for 4~6 times until the mixture is

stable without obvious wheel track. Final rolling shall be performed after re-rolling, and

the asphalt mixture temperature shall not be less than 70℃. Tire roller is used to roll for

2~4 times without wheel track, and the final temperature of road surface compaction

and forming shall comply with the specifications.

D. Juncture, trimming and site-clearing: The paving of asphalt mixture shall be

continuous work, roller shall not drive through un-protected end of new paved mixture,

transverse joint shall be cut at the previous paving end to expose the comprehensiveness

38

of paved layer. When paving fresh mixture, adequate amount of tack coat asphalt shall

be painted to the end of previous pavement, then add mixture to the previous rolled

material, and adjust the height of flat plate to reserve enough allowance for rolling.

Transverse rolling is adopted for transverse joint, and then conventional rolling is

performed. Materials produced by trimming and other wasted asphalt mixture shall be

removed from the road.

3.1.3 Pollution intensity

3.1.3.1 Pollution intenstiy during construction period

(1) Waste gas

Waste gas in construction period mainly includes 1) raise dust caused by land

leveling, earthwork excavation, material transport, loading and unloading, stacking and

blending; 2) tail gas discharged by construction machinery and large truck transporting

building materials; 3) pitch smoke caused by pavement of bituminous concrete. See

Table 3-2 for main pollution sources and discharged pollutant at different construction

stages.

Table 3-2 Main Pollution Sources and Pollutants at Different Construction Stages

Raise dust, tail gas

Ground pavement 1. Ground pavement site2. Mechanical equipment, transport vehicles

Raise dust, tail gas, pitch smoke

1) Raise dust:

Raise dust is the main atmospheric pollutant in construction period. It appears at different

stages of construction and lasts for long time. According to reasons for dusting, it can be divided

into wind power dust and power dust. The wind power dust is caused by that the capping mass

on surface layer of building materials stored in open air (such as yellow sand and cement, etc.)

40

and exposed construction area is blown by strong wind in dry weather. It often appears during

the loading & unloading to building materials, blending and vehicle driving. The dust particles

will suspend in air due to exogenic action and it gets the worst when conducting construction

and loading & unloading.

2) Machinery and vehicle tail gas

Diesel is mainly adopted by mechanical equipment and building materials

transporting vehicles at construction site as fuel and the tail gas mainly contains

pollutants including CO, NO2 and CH. During construction period, different

machineries and vehicles have strong mobility and their waste gas is relatively

dispersed. Under meteorological conditions that contribute to gas diffusion, the waste

gas has little impact on surrounding environment and it only influences area within

several meters.

3) Pitch smoke

Road surface of the project adopts asphalt concrete pavement. Commercial pitch is

adopted by the project and pitch blending station is not set. During asphalt pavement,

small amount of pitch smoke will be caused and it has small influencing area.

(2) Waste water

Waste water discharged in construction period mainly includes domestic

wastewater, construction wastewater and surface rainfall runoff.

1) Domestic wastewater

Through comparison with construction of road of similar scale, generally, at most

100 workers are required as construction workers. If 100L domestic water will be

consumed by one person per day, the daily domestic water consumption will be

10.0m3/d. Taking 0.8 as discharge coefficient, the domestic wastewater will be 8.0m3/d.

As the project has construction period of about 32 months, about 5840m3 domestic

wastewater will be generated. The water quality of domestic wastewater during

construction is similar with that of ordinary domestic wastewater. On the basis of water

quality of domestic wastewater, pollution load of domestic wastewater during

construction period can be obtained and the results are listed in Table 3-3.

Table 3-3 Pollution Load of Domestic Wastewater during Construction

41

Water pollution load CODCr BOD5 SS NH3-N

Density (mg/ L) 400 250 200 35

Water pollution load (kg/d) 3.2 2 1.6 0.28

Total weight of water pollutant (t) 2.336 1.46 1.168 0.204

The living quarter for constructors of the project is supported by the villages

nearby and no living quarter will specially be established for constructors. During the

construction, the domestic wastewater will be disposed by existing public utilities of

surrounding villages. If the village is too far away, temporary mobile toilet will be set

and the wastewater will be pumped and transported by environmental sanitation

department after simple treatment.

2) Construction wastewater

Construction wastewater mainly includes aggregate wash water, concrete system

wastewater (washing, prefabrication and curing), and mechanical equipment washing

water and mud wastewater during foundation construction. Compared with road

construction of similar scale, the output volume of aggregate wash water, concrete

system wastewater (washing, prefabrication and curing), and mechanical equipment

washing water and mud wastewater during foundation construction is about 10t/d. Main

pollutants of wastewater include silt, scattered oil and alkaline matter. As for water

quality of wastewater, the SS concentration is about 600-3000mg/L, COD concentration

is about 50-1000mg/L and mineral oil about 10-150mg/L. Settling pond shall be set at

construction site. If the construction wastewater meets the requirements of The Reuse of

Urban Recycling Water - Water Quality Standard for Urban Miscellaneous Water

Consumption (GB/T18920-2002) after sedimentation treatment, it can be re-used for

engineering construction and nearby greening.

3) Rainfall runoff

During construction, large area of exposed ground and debris pile are found within

land utilization scope. In case of rainfall, the rainfall runoff will scour them and cause

much silt. Therefore, rain gutters are excavated within land utilization scope to collect

rainfall runoff. After sedimentation treatment in temporary settling pond, the water can

be reused for engineering construction and nearby greening and the redundant part will

be drained into nearby rivers.

42

(3) Noise

During road construction, the noise is mainly caused by construction machinery

and transport vehicles and it has characteristics including provisionality, high noise and

irregularity. Refer to Appendix A in Technical Guidelines for Environmental Noise and

Vibration Control Engineering (HJ2034-2013). For intensity of noise caused by

construction machineries, see Table 3-4.

The construction process mainly includes three phases: foundation construction， pavement construction and traffic engineering construction. The features of each phase

are as follows:

The foundation construction is the most time-consuming and most noisy phase

requiring the most construction machineries during road construction. The construction

technologies related to this phase are earthwork (excavation and filling), roadbed

preparation, pavement compaction, piling and the like. Many material transport vehicles

will also enter in and out of the construction site. The construction machineries used in

this phase are loaders, vibrating road rollers, bulldozer, grader, excavators, and pile

drivers, etc.

43

The pavement construction is mainly about asphalt paving, the required machinery

is mainly the large asphalt paver. According to the domestic noise monitoring during the

construction period, this phase is less noisy than the phase of foundation construction,

and the sensitive point 50m away from the roadside is less affected.

The supporting construction is mainly about installation of safety facilities and

greening. This process basically does not apply large-scale construction machineries,

and therefore it is less affected by noise .

Noise sources of different devices distribute differently: road roller, bulldozer, land

leveler are of mobile source, they are mainly distributed within land utilization area;

transport vehicles are of mobile source, they are not only distributed within land

utilization area but also distribution along construction road and existing road that for

external communication; agitator is of fixed source, it is set in mixing plant.

Since the road construction is a large scaled project requiring complex machineries

and many transport vehicles, the noise shall be controlled along the whole process,

otherwise the residents and sensitive targets adjacent to the area would be largely

affected.

(4) Solid wastes

The construction machineries of this project shall be maintained and repaired at the

construction unit in designation. Construction machinery maintenance point will not be

set at site, thus not considering dangerous waste such as used oil is allowed. Solid waste

during construction period mainly includes domestic waste and construction garbage.

1) Domestic waste

At most about 100 operators are required for the project. Calculating on the basis

of 0.5kg per person per day, 50kg waste will be produced every day. The construction

duration of project is 32 months and the domestic waste will be 36t, which will be

cleared and treated by environmental sanitation department after centralized collection.

2) Construction garbage

Construction waste in construction period mainly includes waste concrete, brick,

waste wood, glasses and earth. About 3119m2 construction waste will be produced by

the project and the waste shall be piled in categories and reused if possible. The

construction waste and domestic waste that can not be re-used shall be cleared and

44

treated by environmental sanitation department. The Builder shall transport waste

according to regulations and shall not dump them casually. Strict management of

construction process can control the production of construction waste and affect on

environment.

3.1.3.2 Pollution intensity during operation

(1) Waste gas

The waste gas during operation period is mainly the motor vehicle exhaust of

which the main pollutants are NOx, CO and THC; wherein the concentration of NOx and

CO is relatively high. The waste gas pollutants are mainly from the gas leakage of axle

box, fuel system volatile and exhaust funnel emissions, while most THC and nearly all

NOx and CO are from exhaust pipes. CO is a product of the incomplete combustion of

fuel in the engine, which mainly depends on the air-fuel ratio and the uniform

distribution of various cylinder fuel. NOx is generated from the excess air oxygen and

nitrogen at high temperature and pressure in the cylinder. THC is a product of

Quenching effect of cylinder wall and the incomplete combustion of mixed gases. The

number and types of vehicle emissions are determined by many factors, such as the

types of gasoline, car load, engine performance, operating conditions of the motor

vehicle, road conditions, local terrain conditions and meteorological conditions, etc.

According to the Notice on Approval of Motor Exhaust Pollution Prevention and

Control Implementation Rules of Zhejiang Province General Office (implementation of

new vehicle registration is synchronical with implememtation of stage Ⅲ and IV motor

vehicle pollution emission standard (Guo III and Guo IV emission standard for short))

(Guo III emission stanard will be executed from July 1st, 2008 for light gasoline cars

and diesel vehicles and Guo IV emission standard will be executed from July 1 st, 2011),

The official business vehicles, buses and commercial motor-vehicles shall take the lead

in implementing environmental standard requirements. ”

The operations in the near future, medium-term and long-term shall be evaluated by

national IV standard. For the emission factors, refer to Comprehensive Emission Factors

of Vehicles in Service and Light Vehicle Pollutant Emission Limit and Measurement

(2) Waste water

The waste water during operation period is mainly the road surface runoff. The

major pollutants are SS, BOD and petroleum. Upon the completion of road

construction, there would be pollutants from all kinds of vehicle exhausts deposited on

the road as well as particles of worn automobile tire, dirt on the car frame, and scattered

pollutants during vehicle braking and leaked oil when vehicle operating condition is

poor. They would all be dissolved and washed by the rainwater and flow into the

drainage system together with the surface runoff and eventually enter into the surface

water body. The main factors that would affect the pollutant composition and

concentration in road surface water are: pavement structure and type, traffic volume,

vehicle model constitute, land use and environment along the road, length of intervals of

dry days, rainfall intensity, rainfall, and rainfall duration, etc.

Former South China Institute of Environmental Sciences of State Environmental

Protection Administration once conducted tests on the road runoff pollution of Southern

regions in the following way: form road surface runoff by creating two times of

artificial rainfalls with an interval of 20 days; the traffic flow and rainfall are given, and

the duration of rainfall is 1h with an intensity of 81.6mm; collect water samples at

different times within 1h. The analysis result of surface contaminants variation is shown

in Table 3-9.

(3) Noise

The noises during operating period is mainly the car traffic noise caused by the car

engine, exhaust system, fan cooling system, transmission system, body vibration, and

tires effect on the road, etc. The noise of the traffic is not only related to the vehicle

condition but also many other factors like vehicle model, speed, traffic condition and

traffic volume.

For average noise radiation level of various vehicles 7.5m away from the traffic

lane, refer to Table 3-10.

3.2 Non-pollution Factor Analysis3.2.1 Impact on ecological environment

The project impacts during the construction period onto the ecological environment

include land occupation, change of land-use type; site excavation may damage original land

vegetation; if the exposed ground surface and abandoned soil and waste slag are not disposed

appropriately, water loss and soil erosion may be caused.

After the project completion, the agricultural land in this area will be turned into

urban roads. The Owner shall lay emphasis on coordination between the project and

surrounding environment, reasonably select hue and green tree species, and strengthen

the greening and beautification work at both sides of road and make up the impacts on

48

the ecological environment.

3.2.2 Impact on social environment

The road construction is contributive to regional social and economic development,

town planning, infrastructure construction, industrial and agricultural production,

communication and transportation and tourism development.

However, the land acquisition will decrease local agricultural acreage and affect

regional agricultural production in some way. Moreover, the construction may also pose

certain effects on the existing public utilities and communication and transportation.

3.2.3 Impact on road safety

1. Identification of risk sources and dangerous articles

(1) Risk source identification

The road project is not related to dangerous articles transportation and use in itself,

but the environmental risks are mainly related to the transport vehicles that use the road.

The project is related to urban road and hazardous articles that are allowed to be

transported on road include gasoline, diesel, liquefied gas, pesticide and fireworks and

crackers. Oil tank vehicles take about half of hazardous articles transporting vehicles.

Large amount of research results show that the road pollution accident is mainly caused

by traffic accident. A vehicle accident will cause water and environmental air pollution

and the accident types include:

1) Leakage of gasoline (diesel) and engine oil of vehicles and they flow into nearby

water;

2) After the traffic accident of dangerous chemicals transporting vehicle, the

poisonous and harmful solid and liquid articles are leaked or flammable and

combustible substances cause explosion, water pollution and air pollution, and also

traffic jam;

3) Traffic accident happens at road section neighboring river. The vehicle and

goods fall into river.

Accidents during road transportation are mainly caused by leakage of dangerous

chemicals (mainly oil plants) and the leakage has certain impact on land ecological

system and atmospheric environment. The water at engineering road section will

49

directly or indirectly flow into nearby river and the leakage of chemicals such as oil

plants will possibly cause severe pollution of local water and damage the life and

property of residents around the accident point.

(2) Identification of environmental risk factors

1) Human factors

① Management staffs and drivers do not comply with relevant rules and

regulations; hazardous articles transporting vehicles get the green light without

receiving verification, single inspection and safety inspection by lane counselors.

② The drivers do not follow rules and regulations. Fatigue driving, overload,

drunk driving, overspeed, driving without license and some objective factors may cause

hazardous articles transportation accident.

2) Defects of transport vehicles

① Design problem of transport vehicles, for example, brake failure may occur

during driving;

② Overuse of transport vehicles and deterioration of spare parts;

③ Insufficient inspection for transport vehicles;

④ Vehicles transporting hazardous articles have no license for hazardous articles

transport.

2. Risk prevention and mitigation measures

(1) Preventive engineering measures

The project is related to urban roads. Relevant regulations on hazardous articles

transportation shall be strictly followed, relevant certificate for transport permit shall be

obtained for hazardous articles transportation and the vehicles shall be marked with

obvious signs. The following measures shall be formulated to mitigate accident

influences:

① Set the "Careful!” warning sign and speed limit sign for vehicles with hazardous

articles at road corner and road section near river to warn the driver to be cautious and

control driving speed.

50

② The setting of traffic signs and traffic markings shall comply with road

transportation safety requirements and national standards and the signs and markings

shall be clear, striking, accurate and intact.

③ The driving speed shall be reduced when driving at night or at dangerous road

section under bad meteorological conditions.

④ During project operation period, strengthen management, repair damaged road

surface and enhance accident emergency drill to reduce the accident risk to the

minimum degree.

(2) Prevention management measures

The most primary measure of preventing hazardous articles transportation risk

accidents is to strictly implement laws and regulations on dangerous goods

transportation released by the national and industrial departments. Relevant laws and

regulations include: Regulations on the Control over Safety of Dangerous Chemicals,

Provisions on the Administration of the Road Transport of Dangerous Goods, Control

Regulations Regarding Civil Explosives of the People's Republic of China, Safety and

Protection Regulations on Radioisotope and Ray Device of the People's Republic of

China, etc. By combining with actual situation of road transport, specific measures are

presented as follows:

① Enhance education and training related to laws and regulations for hazardous

article transportation. Drivers and management staff engaged in hazardous article

transportation shall comply with technical safety regulations and operation procedures

related to hazardous article transportation and learn to master relevant laws and

regulations released by the relevant departments.

② Enhance management for regional hazardous article transportation.

Qualification authentication shall be conducted for freight forwarder and carrier

company, and "transport license", "driving license" and "supercargo" system shall be

established for dangerous goods transport. Business training on traffic accident

elimination of hazardous article transporting vehicles shall be regularly conducted for

driver and relevant departments engaged in hazardous article transportation to improve

their crisis awareness. Uniform special mark shall be used and fixed-point inspection

system shall be implemented for hazardous article transport vehicles. Highly toxic

chemicals shall be transported according to provisions of “road transport license for

51

highly toxic chemicals" issued by Public Security Bureau.

③ When the weather is bad, hazardous article transport vehicle shall not be

allowed to enter the construction site. Striking sign shall be arranged in residential areas

and other sensitive road sections, and vehicle speed shall be limited by setting up

warning sign.

④ Traffic administrative department shall prepare emergency response plan for

project pollution accident to ensure necessary emergency measures can be timely

adopted after environmental risk accident occurs. Thus the pollution can be controlled

to ensure resident safety.

⑤ With regard to pollutants and hazardous article transport, road management

system shall be matched with corresponding management system. Safety performance

inspection of chemical transport vehicles shall be enhanced to reduce occurrence rate of

traffic accident caused by mechanical failure. Drivers who transport pollution source

that may cause infection and chemicals shall all be checked to see whether they have

drunk driving and fatigue driving, which are forbidden. The drivers shall comply with

traffic rules and traffic conditions.

⑥ Once traffic accident occurs, relevant pollutants shall be timely disposed to

prevent pollutants from entering river to relieve or avoid pollution caused by the

accident.

⑦ An emergency rescue organization composed of special personnel shall be

established. Once accident occurs, emergency rescue organization shall be responsible

for contacting relevant department to conduct rescue and take emergency measures to

reduce losses. Dangerous chemical transportation management shall be enhanced,

according to own responsibilities, Transport Department, Water Resources Department,

Public Security Bureau, Quality Supervision Department, environmental protection

department and Safety Supervision Department shall enhance full-process supervision

for transportation qualification of dangerous chemical and hazardous wastes company,

transport and loading tools, transporter on-duty qualification certificate, transport

method and route to furthest avoid pollutant harming resident and drainage basin caused

by traffic accident.

⑧ Stacking building materials, drying grain and setting obstacle on road are

forbidden. When this kind of situation is found, Road Administration Department shall

52

fulfill corresponding management function according to provisions of Road Traffic

Safety Law of the People's Republic of China.

⑨ Enhance road traffic management technology construction, and use "driving

recorder" of Haoda Motor. Overload, overspeed, operation procedures violation and

other unlawful and traffic offence actions of passenger service vehicle shall be

forbidden and safety protection level can be improved.

Enhance safety facilities design of road. The warning sign of "driving with

caution" and speed limit sign of hazardous article vehicle shall be arranged at the road

corner and road section closing to river. Slowdown sign and speed limit sign shall be

arranged closing to housing estate, school and other sensitive place to remind the driver

of hazardous article transport vehicle to be careful and control vehicle speed and ensure

the vehicle safety.

3.3 Environmental Impact Analysis

3.3.1 Conclusions of noise impact assessment

1) Construction period：

Prediction results show that

① Taking the sound insulation status on construction site into consideration, sound

pressure level at 20 meters is 68.0dB (A), which reaches the standard diurnal noise limit

(70dB (A)) in Emission Standard Of Environment Noise For Boundary Of Construction

Site (GB 12523-2011).

② High noise equipment are equipped with mobile simple noise barrier, and noise

barrier shall also be adopted on the periphery of construction site with overall sound

isolation effect of about 20dB (A). After sound is isolated, the noise up to sensitive

point meets the Class-2 standard of Environmental Quality Standard for Noise

(GB3096-2008).

2) Operation period

① Predictive analysis for noise impact of two sides in different times (expansively

section)

Prediction indicates that:

53

Noise at both sides of Jinagbin Donglu (Bailing Beilu-Xiangzhang Lu) can meet

the requirements of Class 4a standard during daytime and night in short term, medium

term and long term of operation. The distance for Class 2 noise at night that conforms to

requirements shall be 20m in medium term and 30m in the long term.

Noise at both sides of Fanggui Beilu (Jiangbin Donglu-Dongji Dadao) can meet

the requirements of Class 4a standard during daytimein short term, and the distance for

Class 4a noise at night that conforms to requirements shall be 20m in medium term and

30m in the long term. During daytime, noise of Class 2 outside the red line can reach

the standard in the near and medium term and the distance for Class 2 noise durdaytime

that conforms to requirements shall be 20m in the long term. The distance for Class 2

noise at night that conforms to requirements shall be 20m in short term, 40m in medium

term and 70m in long term.

② Impact analysis for traffic noise in vertical direction

Prediction result indicates that the max. noise imapct height of the road along with

vertical direction is 7.2m (approximately 3 floors high to ground), and then the

influence degree shall become weaker along with increasing of height. According to the

function of first row of buildings along with the road and the requirement of allowable

indoor noise degree during daytime and night, and by combining noise prediction

results of different floors, the sound reduction index of first line buildings along with

the road shall be above 23dB (A).

③ Noise impact analysis for sensitive objective environment

The above results indicate that:

During daytime and night of operation period, present sensitive point on two sides

of road of first row of buildings in Yujingwan District can reach Class 2 standard of

acoustic environment in short term, medium term and long term; During daytime and

night, the first row of buildings in Quzhou third middle school can reach Class-2

standard of acoustic environment in short term, medium term and long term.

During daytime of operation period, the planned sensitive point on two sides of

road and the first row of buildings on both side of road meet the Class 4a standard

requirement of Environmental Quality Standard for Noise (GB3096-2008) in short term,

the medium term and the long term. And during night, it can reach Class 4a standard

54

requirement in short term and the medium term, and in the long term, the noise can be

0.3dB (A) higher than the value specified in the standard to the greatest extent. Allow

for the sound isolation effect of first row of buildings (in general, sound insulation effect

is above 23dB (A)), the area behind the first row of buildings can reach Class-2 standard

requirement of Environmental Quality Standard for Noise (GB3096-2008).

3.3.2 Conclusions of ambient air influence

1) Construction period

During the construction period, raise dust caused by roadbed and road surface

construction and transport vehicle will cause pollution to some extent and has certain

influence on health of residents living along with the road. Therefore, raise dust

reduction measures shall be taken on construction site.

During construction, transporting construction material which are likely to cause

atmospheric pollution (such as earthwork, asphalt, etc.), therefore sealing transportation

method shall be adopted to reduce the influence of raise dust and fetor on ambient air

sensitive objective of village along with the road. Whilst the traveling peak hours of

resident along with the road during transportation shall be avoided to relieve traffic

pressure and influence of raise dust on traveling resident.

2) Operation period

Prediction results indicate that in all kinds of weather conditions, in short term and

the medium term of road, predicted NO2 and CO hourly values and daily average value

can reach Class-2 standard in Ambient Air Quality Standard (GB3095-2012), which has

slight influence on the ambient air quality.

3.3.3 Analysis of water environmental influence

1) Construction period

The living quarter for constructors of the project is supported by the villages

nearby and no living quarter will specially be established for constructors. During

construction period, sanitary wastewater shall be disposed by relying on existing public

utilities of village along with road. If the village is too far away, temporary mobile toilet

will be set and the wastewater will be pumped and transported by environmental

sanitation department after simple treatment. Therefore, sanitary wastewater barely

influences the water quality along with road.

55

Construction wastewater mainly includes aggregate wash water, concrete system

wastewater (washing, prefabrication and curing), and mechanical equipment washing

water and mud wastewater during foundation construction. The main pollutants of

wastewater mainly are silt, sporadic oil and alkaline matter. Settling pond shall be set at

construction site. If the construction wastewater meets the requirements of The Reuse of

Urban Recycling Water - Water Quality Standard for Urban Miscellaneous Water

Consumption (GB/T18920-2002) after sedimentation treatment, it can be re-used for

engineering construction and nearby greening.

2) Operation period

The waste water during operation period is mainly the road surface runoff. The

major pollution factors are SS, BOD and petroleum. Pollutant concentration of road

surface runoff wastewater SS and BOD will increase gradually about 15min to 30min

before raining, and then pollutant concentration will be lower gradually. As a rule,

pollutant concentration of road surface runoff is not high, it is dispersedly discharged in

form of surface source moreover, highway surface runoff accounts for a smaller portion

of rainwater collection area along with river, and it will directly enter into river and

barely has influence on river quality of water along with river.

3.3.4 Solid waste influence

During construction period, main solid wastes are household waste and

construction waste. Each construction site is equipped with centralized collection point

for household waste, and the waste is regularly delivered to local environmental

protection department for disposal.

During construction period, main construction waste include construction waste

concrete, waste bricks, waste wood, waste glass and waste earthwork. This project

totally produced about 3,119 m3 construction wastes. These construction wastes shall be

intensively stack and recycled as far as possible, and the household waste and

construction waste can not be recycled shall be uniformly transported and cleared by

environmental protection department. Normative transport shall be required for

construction company, and casual scattering and dumping is forbidden. Construction

process management shall be enhanced, and construction waste output and its influence

on environment shall be controlled.

Therefore, after disposal method conforming to environmental requirement is

56

implemented, ambient environment will be barely influenced by slid waste.

3.3.5 Conclusions of eco-environmental influence assessment

Project’s impact on ecological environment during construction period includes

land occupation, change of land-use type; site exaction may damage original land

vegetation; if the exposed ground surface and abandoned soil and waste slag are not

treated appropriately, water and soil loss may be caused.

1) Influence of project land occupation

Project land occupation is divided into permanent occupation and temporary

occupation.

① Influence of permanent occupation of land

Permanent occupation of land is the land occupation of proposed road. Area of

permanent land occupation is 66,059m2, at present, the land is farmland, and it is

designed for traffic route. Within land occupation area, there is no protection zone of

drinking water source.

Permanent occupation of land will destroy vegetation and permanent change of

land utilization property, which will influence ecosystem. Engineering construction land

will mainly make these lands lost original biological production function and ecosystem

service function, which will influence the utilization of partial land.

Permanent land occupation for engineering construction is mainly based on

agricultural production land, which will transform partial agricultural production land in

assessment area into traffic construction land. However, the occupied agricultural

production land accounts for a very small proportion of occupation area in assessment

area, moreover, the cultivated land temporarily occupied by project can be recovered

after construction is completed. Project construction will make total output of local

agricultural products decrease, but the decrease range is very small, therefore, the

influence on local agricultural production is very small as well.

② Influence of temporary occupation of land

The living quarter for constructors of the project is supported by the villages

nearby and no living quarter will specially be established for constructors; gravel and

earthwork are outsourced, thus earth fetching ground and spoil ground are not arranged;

57

existing village road can be used as temporary construction road, thus temporary

construction road is not built as well. One temporary construction site and two

temporary surface soil stacking sites shall be arranged within red line range of project

with temporary land occupation area of 4,000m2.。Temporary land occupation will cause land vegetation stripping and treading and

make destroy land vegetation to a certain extent, and vegetation stand volume and

productivity will be weakened and land utilization function will be influenced.

However, 1~3 years later after project is completed, vegetation can recover to original

production capacity in general, and land utilization structure and function will not be

thoroughly changed. Therefore, the land occupied by project will barely change regional

land utilization structure and it has minimal influence on land utilization structure

within assessment area.

2) Influence on animals and plants

Area of permanent land occupation of project is 66,059m2, the location of project

mainly is farmland, and all native vegetations are lost. Farmland vegetation is the most

widely distributed vegetation within assessment area, and the vegetations basically

belong to secondary vegetation or cultivated vegetation. There mainly are common

species (such as eucalyptus, pinus massoniana, orchard, crops, etc.), and no ancient and

famous trees, national and local protected species. Vegetation is greatly influenced by

human activities.

Animals mainly are common amphibians, reptiles, birds and small mammal

animals growing under human activity influence. No species protected by nation or

autonomous region are found.

During construction period, irreversible catastrophic destruction will be caused for

vegetations on occupied land, and wild animal habitat may be influenced to some

extent. The Owner shall increase green area during road construction to make up for

destruction and losses of existing vegetations.

3) Water and soil loss

The degree of water and soil loss depends on the length of construction period, the

area of excavated land, and precipitation. The main manifestations of water and soil loss

include the following aspects.

58

1) Damage and weaken water and soil conservation

Activities of this Project such as excavation, foundation construction, underground

construction, laying of road, pipeline, ancillary facilities and temporary facilities, if

without protective measures, will damage the conservation of water and soil greatly,

weaken local ecological balance (rainwater retaining, water conservation, runoff

lagging, and soil fixation), intensify water and soil loss, and affect the safety of

engineering construction.

2) Destroy land resources and weaken soil fertility

Due to excavation, the original land vegetation will be damaged, causing the loss

of water and soil and the nutritive element in surface soil, and weakening soil fertility.

Most affected area in this Project is farm land and garden plot. Without protective

measures on the excavation and filling of earthwork, mud and rock will block farm

gully and even occupy farm field under the influence of rainwater and surface runoff,

posing a serious threat for nearby field husbandry. In addition, soil fertility will weaken

as a result of the loss of nutritive elements, the growth of crops and fruit trees will be

further influenced, and the recycling of soil resources will be impeded.

3) Worsen natural landscape and water quality

Since the original surface and vegetation will be disturbed, effective measures

against water and soil loss shall be conducted in areas like river channel, bank slope and

open space. Otherwise, land vegetation and natural conditions will be destroyed and the

natural landscape along the line will be affected directly. Meanwhile, the nutritive

elements in soil will enter into river, therefore water quality will worse while water turbidity

and pollutant load will increase.

4) Block river channel, and lower flood control and shipping capacity

The possible water and soil loss caused by this Project will create channel

blocking, elevate river bed, reduce cross-section of river, and affect flood discharge and

shipping capacity, under the influence of surface runoff.

3.3.6 Social environment influence

① Positive influence

59

a. Confirm to the comprehensive urban planning of Quzhou City and Local

Planning of Qujiang District, Quzhou City

b. Promote regional economic development

c. Improve regional traffic and beautify urban landscape

② Negative influence

a. Influence of land occupation: the area of land occupied permanently and

irreversibly is 66,059m2. The land occupation will decrease local agricultural acreage

and affect regional agricultural production in some way. Since the occupied land is

relatively small, the influence on local agricultural production is limited.

b. Influence on existing public utilities: the quantity of infrastructure involved in

this Project is relatively small, mainly including wire poles and communication poles.

The Owner and Builder shall negotiate with electricity, telecommunication and

municipal departments in advance, and reach an agreement upon transition plan and

date. Original facilities shall not be dismantled until substitutes are constructed.

Affected enterprises and residents shall be informed on media to prepare

countermeasures, to avoid the negative effects on production and daily life in the case of

power failure and communication outage and other accidents.

c. Influence on existing traffic: since a mass of materials will be transported

during construction period, large-tonnage transport vehicles and other related facilities

will intensify local traffic. The Owner shall cooperate with local traffic authorities to

ready traffic circulation plan such as diversion plan to neighbor roads, and ensure traffic

accessibility. The Builder shall cooperate actively, adjust the date of material transport,

and keep away from rush hour – 7~10am and 4~7pm.

3.3.7 Accident risk analysis

The environmental risks of road projects come from traffic accidents of all kinds of

transport vehicles. The extent of damage mainly depends on the sensibility of accident

site, and the toxicity, chemical properties, combustibility and explosibility of hazardous

articles. The accident risk shall be reduced to the lowest through engineering measures

and management measures. If hazardous articles spill, the consequence is serious.

Therefore, all countermeasures mentioned in this report shall be implemented and

emergency plan shall be compiled.

60

4 Analysis of Economic Benefits and Losses Related to Environment

4.1 Environment Economic Benefit Analysis 4.1.1 Social Benefits (i.e., necessityof project construction )

（1）Necessary for urban development

Qujiang District borders Xiafei Lu in the east, and the Wuxi River in the west,

connecting Xin’an Dadao (avenue) in the south, and Qujiang area in the north,

occupying an area of 195.636 hectares. According to the overall requirements of the

Qujiang Zoning Plan,the road framework under the master planning is: to form a road

network framework featured with “one loop, two longitudinal roads and one latitudinal

road”, with an urban ring road composed of Binjiang Lu and Dongji Dadao, Xin’an

Dadao as an east-west urban main road, and Bin’gang Beilu and Xiafei Lu as two north-

south main roads, which has dual functions of both urban roads and highways

connecting outside. The construction of the project is consistent with both the master

planning of the city and the traffic planning of the city, which is of great significance to

improving the development of infrastures in the area, renovating inside-city villages and

accelerating new urbanization process.

(2) The needs of promoting local social and economic development

The urban transportation is not only the basis and precondition for economic

development, but also the basis and prerequisite of all kinds of construction and

development. Transportation can contribute to regional economic development. At

present, local traffic infrastructures are relatively undeveloped, which in some way

impedes local economic development and prevents location advantages from full

exploitation. The development of economy is sure to result in corresponding cargo

movement and personnel transfer. People now travel far more often than before as a

result of increasing needs for material and cultural life. Therefore, there are higher and

higher requirements on traffic convenience and accessibility. Unfortunately,

undeveloped traffic can affect the sustainable development of economy. Thus, existing

61

traffic capacity must be enhanced.

(3) The needs of facilitating public traffic and improving people’s living standard

The construction of urban roads has facilitated public traffic, provided great

convenience for people’s travel, shopping and other aspects of daily life, and met the

needs of urban citizens and social activities. In addition, the roads designed elaborately

are not only infrastructures but also as a part of urban scenery, playing a role in

improving urban landscape, beautifying city and boosting city level.

4.1.2 Economic benefits

The economic benefits of this Project mainly include land value increment, cost

decrease of vehicle transport, and time saving.

(1) Land value increment

As a result of the improvement of urban roads and related municipal facilities, land

resources will be utilized better and the use efficiency of land will be improved.

(2) Cost decrease of vehicle transport

After the completion of this Project, the pressure of local original roads will be

released effectively, transport conditions will be improved, regional traffic will become

more convenient, and the convenience and speediness of road transport will be reflected

fully; vehicle speed and traffic capacity will both increase; transport mileage will

become shorter too. In one word, the cost of vehicle transport will be reduced greatly.

(3) Time-saving benefit

Along with the improvement of driving condition and speed and the shortening of

part driving distance, the time-saving benefits come from the reducing of vehicle

transport time and tourists’ traffic time. To calculate the benefits from the reducing of

vehicle transport, capital turnover time shall be analyzed especially because interest will

lower as a result of accelerated cargo circulation. The reducing of tourists’ traffic time

will bring more GDP.

In addition, the improvement of traffic safety will also create benefits. After the

completion of this Project, regional traffic conditions will be improved greatly while

traffic accident rate and loss will become lower.

62

4.1.3 Environmental benefits

The infrastructures in some proposed construction areas are undeveloped.

However, the domestic wastewater of part villagers is discharged into nearby river

channel after simple treatment and even without any treatment. Thus water quality is

affected in some way. The proposed auxiliary projects of rain pipe and wastewater pipe

will provide opportunities for domestic and industrial wastewater treatment, and

alleviate pollution load of nearby river channel.

4.2 Analysis of Economic Losses Related to Environment

4.2.1 Economic losses of ecological environment

(1) Losses of land occupation

The land occupation of this Project includes two types: permanent land occupation

and temporary land occupation during construction period. The area of permanently-

occupied land is 66,059m2 and the land occupied temporarily during construction period

is within the boundary line of land. The loss of temporary land occupation refers to the

productivity decrease of the occupied land. The permanent land occupation will cause

the losses of agriculture, forestry and biomass.

(2) Losses of vegetation deterioration

The regional ecological influence of this Project mainly includes the loss of

ecological service function caused by the land occupation of road construction – the

change of land use and vegetation deterioration. The ecological benefits and losses of

road construction are evaluated through ecological economics.

The ecological functions of vegetation mainly include adsorbing and storing

greenhouse gas CO2, releasing oxygen, retarding surface runoff, alleviating flood risks,

and purifying environment. Here, only the economic benefits of the decrease of CO2

fixation and hydrogen release of the occupied green space are evaluated.

4.2.2 Economic losses induced by environmental pollution

(1) Atmospheric environment losses

Dust pollution during construction period will affect nearby sensitive locations,

especially in the case of downwind direction. In addition, dust will also impede the

photosynthesis of neighbor crops and consequently influence agricultural yield.

63

(2) Water environment losses

During road construction period, the discharge of workers' domestic wastewater

and waste may pollute neighbor water environment. Water and soil loss may intensify at

the early stage of road construction and operation period, and impede flood drainage of

water conservancy after discharge into river channel. Oil-bearing pollutant mixed with

road surface runoff will enter into water body and pollute water quality after the

accomplishment of road.

(3) Acoustic environment losses

During road construction period, the noises from construction machinery will

disturb the daily life, work and study of sensitive people including nearby villagers. The

traffic noise of proposed road is about 60dB, a low level only affecting human sleeping.

The economic losses may occur if the work efficiency of people is affected as

consequence of disturbed sleeping.

4.2.3 Analysis of economic benefits and losses related to environment

Various measures related to environmental issues mentioned in environment

assessment shall be conducted during the implementation process to achieve the

integration of environmental benefits, social benefits and economic benefits.

Although most negative effects and positive effects on environment involved in

this Project, such as positive benefits and negative benefits, can not be quantized

absolutely, overall, the positive effects of this Project on environment are far stronger

than negative effects.

64

第一章5 Environmental Protection Measures

The construction sequence and time shall be reasonably arranged during

construction, and the construction surface shall be enlarged as far as possible with

respect to the layered (blocked) line construction including foundation construction,

roadbed, road surface and pipe laying and arrangement, so as to improve efficiency of

construction and ensure construction quality and safety in operation and construction.

Sections through part of residential areas, districts of culture and education and other

sensitive objects along the line shall be constructed in advance, so as to carry out

docking works. Practical and effective measures should be adopted during engineering

construction, so as to prevent disturbing from the construction site, and relevant

regulations and provisions shall be strictly followed, including stopping operation on

time at noon and night. Fences of more than 2m shall be arranged along the construction

site so that impact of noises on residential areas can be reduced during construction.

Conservation of water and soil shall be strengthened by taking engineering measures

such as greening, and slope and revetment protection, so as to prevent water and soil

loss. Construction roads shall be available for the construction sections to keep the

existing roads clear and reduce impact on the environment.

5.1 Pollution Control during Construction

5.1.1 Waste gas

Waste gas in construction period mainly includes 1) dust caused by land leveling,

earthwork excavation, material transport, loading and unloading, stacking and blending;

2) tail gas discharged by construction machinery and large truck for transporting

building materials; 3) asphalt smoke caused by pavement of bituminous concrete.

To prevent the impact of waste gas on the ambient environment in construction

period, the Builder shall take the following measures:

(1) Construction dust

Dust may be caused by land leveling, earthwork excavation, concrete mixing,

building materials transport, loading and unloading and other processes during

65

construction. Sites selected for stacking and transporting building materials shall be

away from the crowd, and storage yards shall be arranged in the downwind direction of

the sensitive objects and more than 100m away. Number of storage yards and amount of

stacking should be reduced to the greatest extent, and construction waste should be

cleared without delay.

Materials such as cement and yellow sand, which generate dust easily, should not be

stacked on the open ground or in the open air, and construction shall be avoided in case of

high wind. Yellow sand and other materials, which have to be stacked on the open ground,

should be watered to enhance surface moisture content, thereby controlling the duct.

Appropriate transport vehicles and modes shall be selected, such as tank transport

for cement, wet loading and transport for coal ash, and tarpaulin covered for

transporting earth and stone, and open-type transport and over capacity shall be avoided

as far as possible during transporting.

Construction sites at the sections of high yield fertile farmlands and orchards shall

be reasonably and preferably arranged and far away if possible. Construction with high

dust pollution should be avoided during rice flowering and fruit bearing.

(2) Tail gas

Strengthen maintenance of machineries and vehicles, forbid excess load of

construction machineries fueled by diesel oil, ensure a standard tail gas emission, and

reduce pollutant emission.

(3) Asphalt smoke

By communicating with the Owner, it is unnecessary to arrange an asphalt mixing

station for the project, and the asphalt concrete needed should be purchased from the

asphalt mixing stations nearby. The unfavorable wind direction shall be avoided (sensitive

objects in the downwind direction) when the site being paved with asphalt concrete is close

to the residence and other sensitive objects, and proper construction time, such as the period

of time when residents are out for work and fewer people are at home, should be selected.

5.1.2 Waste water

66

Waste water discharged in construction period mainly includes domestic

wastewater, construction wastewater and surface rainfall runoff.

(1) Domestic wastewater

The living quarter for constructors of the project is supported by the villages

nearby and no living quarter will specially be established for constructors. During the

construction, the domestic wastewater will be disposed by existing public utilities of

surrounding villages. If the village is too far away, temporary mobile toilet will be set

and the wastewater will be pumped and transported by environmental sanitation

department after simple treatment.

(2) Construction wastewater

Construction wastewater mainly includes sand-gravel material wash water,

concrete system wastewater (washing, prefabrication and curing), and mechanical

equipment washing water and mud wastewater during foundation construction.

1) Strengthen management and well perform construction organization.

Reasonably arrange the construction time, try to carry out construction in a dry season,

preferably adopt the advanced construction technology, and use cofferdams for

construction of the sections near rivers and the piers, so as to reduce pollution of silt to

related water body.

2) Settling ponds and oil separators should be set at construction site. If the

construction wastewater meets the requirements of Reuse of Urban Recycling Water -

Water Quality Standard for Urban Miscellaneous Water Consumption (GB/T18920-

2002) after sedimentation treatment, it can be re-used for engineering construction and

nearby greening.

3) Wastewater for washing construction mechanical equipment and vehicles:

washing shall be performed at a relatively fixed place, and the wastewater shall be then

collected to be subject to oil removal and sedimentation treatment, where the liquid

supernatant is recycled for washing and spraying to reduce dust, and the sediment can

be used for filling the roadbed after being desiccated. The treatment process is as below:

67

Wash water for vehicles Grit basin Settling pond RecyclingOil separator

4) Wash water for sand-gravel materials and wastewater of concrete system: a

headrace channel should be arranged along the temporary storage yard of cement, sand

and other building materials, covers should be arranged on the storage yard, lime,

cement and other materials should not be storages in the open air, and arrangement of

materials should be well performed, so as to reduce stacking time of building materials.

5) With respect to construction of sections near the river channel, the storage yard

shall be as far away from the river channel as possible, especially for the temporary

storage yard for asphalt, oil chemicals and other materials.

(3) Protection measures for rivers along the road

Some measures must be taken to reduce the impact of project construction on rivers along

the line, so as to protect rivers along the road.

1) The time of construction for sections along and across rivers should be

reasonably selected to avoid large-scale excavation in a rainy season. Rainwater at the

construction site should be introduced to a temporary settling pond via an open drain for

sedimentation treatment. After sedimentation treatment in temporary settling pond, the

water can be reused for engineering construction and nearby greening, and the

redundant part will be drained into nearby rivers. Rainwater at the construction site

directly flowing into rivers should be avoided.

2) The domestic wastewater caused by constructors should be treated via the

public toilets of villages along the line. If the construction site is too far away from the

village, a temporary mobile toilet can be set and the wastewater will be pumped and

transported by environmental sanitation department after simple treatment without

being discharged outside. It is not allowed to discharge the domestic wastewater caused

by constructors directly into rivers.

3) The settling pond and oil separator should be arranged at the construction site,

the construction wastewater should be reused for construction site after sedimentation,

oil removal and other treatment processes, and it is not allowed to discharge the

construction wastewater to rivers directly.

4) It is not allowed to arrange the borrow ground and spoil ground as well as

sand-gravel material yards on both sides of rivers along the line. A work shed should be

set up for materials easy to be washed away, so as to prevent loss of construction

materials, the spoil ground should be cleared in time, the household garbage at

68

construction camps should be collected specially, and it is not allowed to discharge the

construction waste and household garbage caused by constructors into rivers.

5) Maintenance for equipment and vehicles and oil change at the construction site

should be performed at a professional maintenance station, which shall not be

performed at the construction site, and oily wastewater disorderly discharged to the

water body should be avoided so as to protect the environment.

5.1.3 Noise

Noises during road construction are mainly generated by construction machineries

and transport vehicles, and the flowing noise control measures should be taken to reduce

the impact of construction noise on the ambient environment and sensitive spot:

(1) Select the construction machineries with low noise, perform noise measurement on the construction machineries in advance under a normal working condition, and avoid machineries non-conformed to the national standard at the site. Carry out maintenance for the equipment usually during construction, ensure the construction equipment is under a favorable working condition with low noise, and avoid a heavier noise pollution caused by poor performance of the equipment.

(2) Reasonably arrange the position of the construction machinery and be far away from the sensitive spot. Avoid use of a lot of high-noise devices at the same time in one construction area.

(3) Reasonably arrange the transport route and transport program. The operation time shall be adjusted while the roads around are used as the transport route for construction materials, so as to prevent disturbing to the original traffic around, and measures of slowing down and no honking should be taken in case of construction at night.

(4) At the sensitive sites including Royal Rioera Bay residential area, No.3 Middle School of Quzhou Zhejiang Province and Paimen Village, protective barriers should be arranged around the construction site, and a mobile simple sound barrier can be arranged for the high-noise equipment, so as to reduce the impact of equipment noise on the environment.

(5) Generally, construction at night is not allowed, and operation with high noise should be arranged in the day as far as possible. Necessary construction at night should be approved by Environment Protection Sub-Bureau and be notified by residents nearby, the working hour should be as short as possible, and noise reduction measures shall be taken.

5.1.4 Solid waste

Solid waste during construction period mainly includes domestic waste and construction waste caused by constructors.

(1) Domestic waste

69

The domestic waste of the project caused by constructors should be collected and

entrusted to the public sanitation department for clearing and treatment.

(2) Construction waste

Construction waste in construction period mainly includes waste concrete, crushed brick, waste wood, cullet and spoil. About 3119m2 construction garbage will be produced by the project and the waste should be piled in categories and reused if possible. The construction waste and domestic waste that can not be re-used should be cleared and treated by the public sanitation department. The Builder should transport the waste according to regulations and should not dump it casually. Strict management of construction process can control the production of construction waste and impact on environment.

5.2 Pollution Control during Operation

5.2.1 Waste gas

The waste gas during operation is mainly automobile exhaust, and following

measures shall be taken to reduce the impact of automobile exhaust on the ambient

environment:

(1) Strengthen traffic management and vehicle management system, strictly follow

the related emission limit standard for motor vehicles of the country, and restrict

vehicles with tail gas exceeding the national standard as well as that loaded with bulk

materials without covering measures.

(2) Strengthen maintenance and cleaning of surface, maintain a good traffic order,

ensure vehicles running under a favorable road condition, and reduce or even avoid

traffic jam.

(3) Plants such as oleander which can well absorb waste gas should be planted on

both sides of the road.

5.2.2 Wastewater

The road surface should be cleared in time so as to reduce the rainwater pollutant

at the beginning of a rainy season.

5.2.3 Noise

The noise during operation is mainly traffic noise, and following measures shall be

taken to reduce the impact of traffic noise on the ambient environment:

(1) Reasonable planning and control

70

Relevant departments shall reasonably plan and control the using function of lands

on both sides of the road in consideration of the acoustic environment. The

administrative department in charge of planning should determine the distance between

the noise-sensitive buildings and ground traffic facilities in relevant planning

documents, so as to avoid significant influence caused by ground traffic noise.

According to the analysis of planning data, lands along the road are mainly used

for living, school and commercial purpose, therefore, certain distance between the first

row of buildings and the boundary line of road must be maintained. According to

Design Specifications of Highway Environmental Protection (JTGB04-2010), the

distance between the residential district and the center line of the road should be more

than 100m, and that between the hospital, sanatorium and school and the center line

should be more than 200m.

This four environmental function zones should be subject to greening or used for

traffic service facilities, warehouse logistics and other non-noise-sensitive facilities.

With respect to the existing noise-sensitive buildings, sound barriers, building

protections and other effective noise pollution control measures should be determined

according to the monitoring data after operation, and removal or replacement can be

performed if available.

According to the use functions of buildings, stairs, bathrooms, kitchens and other

facilities shall be arranged at the side facing to the road with respect to the first row of

buildings facing to the road. The first row of environmentally sensitive buildings close

to the road shall be designed according to the requirements of Code for Design of Sound

Insulation of Civil Buildings (GBJ118-88), where an enveloped balcony will be

designed outside the window and the impact of noise will be reduced via sound

insulation of the window and balcony.

(2) Strengthening traffic operation management

Well arrange warning signs on the road, and arrange no honking, speed limit and

other signs at the section with intensive noise sensitive spots, so as to remind people

driving vehicles passing by of no honking and slowing down.

Strengthen maintenance of the road, maintain a smooth bridge floor or road

surface, reduce sinking, crack and bump of the road surface as far as possible, and

reduce high noise level generated during braking and starting of vehicles.

71

(3) Taking necessary and effective engineering measures

The speed per hour designed for the project is 40km/h, which plays a role in

controlling urban traffic to some extent, and for the traffic volume in the road operation

period is large, following principles shall be followed for noise controlling:

1) Residents within the protection distance 30 m should be relocated at a proper

time in principle. However, effective treatment measures can be taken first in actual

operation to meet relevant noise standards, and relocation can be performed step by step

in combination with the town planning when old houses are renovated and rebuilt.

2) With respect to the noise level heavily exceeding the standard (≥5dB),

ventilating windows are installed for the front row close to the road for a few of small

villages which are close to the road or out of protection distance 30 m.

3) With respect to the noise level slightly exceeding the standard (≥4dB), green

belts in certain width shall be arranged on both sides of the road, so as to reduce dust

and noise.

4) With the growth of traffic volume in operation period, impact level increases,

therefore, noise reduction measures can be taken for villages under a noise level heavily

exceeding the standard in future in combination with the noise monitoring conditions of

the road, such as building function change, installation of a sound proof window and

relocation.

(4) Tracking monitoring

In consideration of uncertainty of predictions, the Owner shall carry out tracking

monitoring after completion of the project, and measures such as arrangement of sound

proof windows shall be taken in case of exceeding.

Under the premise of strengthening tracking monitoring, advices of the residents

requiring for noise reduction measures shall be taken in time, and sound proof windows

shall be installed in time if accepted, or the Owner shall perform relocation, economic

compensation or other ways following the advices of the residents, and the expense

shall be paid by the reserved cost for investment in environmental protection.

5.2.4 Solid waste

Waste and scrap generated during curing of the road shall be recycled. According

to interrelated data, the asphalt pavement oil layer can be reused for paving low-class

72

highway pavement after recycling, and it is feasible in technology and economy, for

example, the waste can be used for building a country road, which can save 20% of

construction fund and RMB 50,000-60,000yuan per kilometer, and the construction

quality can completely meet the requirement.

5.3 Safety

① Arrange warning signs in front of villages and schools so as to remind the

driver of the same.

② 设 Arrange speed limit signs.

③ Arrange deceleration strips, zebra crossings and other signs at the sections of

villages and schools.

5.4 Ecological Protection Measures

5.4.1 Performing ecological protection concept during whole process

(1) The whole road construction process for the project includes surveying and

route selection, engineering feasibility study, preliminary design, construction design,

construction period and operation period. Each department concerned shall perform the

ecological protection concept during the whole process, and reduce impact on the

ecological environment as far as possible.

(2) Site selection and line selection shall comply with relevant laws and

regulations. The environmental protection laws and regulations related to the project

mainly comprise the environmental protection act, environmental noise and water

pollution control act and other laws. The resources protection laws and regulations

mainly comprise the land management law, water and soil conversation law, prime

cropland conservation regulation, wildlife conservation law, wild plants conservation

regulation, law for the preservation of antiques, interim regulations for the management

of scenic areas and historical sites, etc. The ecological environmental sensitive areas and

environmentally protected objects shall be especially avoided, farmland, garden and

forest land as well as basic farmland shall not be occupied if possible, and compensation

shall be made as per the prime cropland preservations.

(3) Location of the line shall be further optimized, and the project design shall be

perfected. For example, as for the roadbed construction, height of the roadbed shall be

reduced as far as possible under the premise of meeting the requirements of technical-

73

economic indicators, so as to reduce permanent occupation of land and amount of fill

needed, and occupation of land can be also reduced by shrinking the side slope,

arranging a retaining wall and arranging other retaining structures at the section of

farmland.

5.4.2 Construction period

(1) Reasonable construction organization and strict construction work

It is required to keep in touch with local meteorological department. The

excavation and filling work shall avoid the rainy season, and the stacking time should

be shortened as much as possible. During the construction, surface arable soil, roadbed

excavation soil, temporary materials and temporary stacks of earth and rock shall be

stacked at a designated place within the requisitioned land. The stacking elevation, slope

gradient, and the position should be well considered in the period of stacking. For the

stacking area which is in danger of water and soil loss, including roads along the river

and soil excavation section, building temporary blocks and drain ditch and other

effective preventing measures shall be taken to reduce the water and soil loss.

Drainage facilities in the construction site should be kept in good condition.

During the rainy seasons, the work of excavation, transportation, filling, and

compaction should be done right after the embankment filling. A 2-5% flat transverse

slope should be built on each filling surface, and no water accumulation should be

permitted.

(2) Vegetation protection and recovery

Protect the vegetation on the roadsides. Embankment filling can use direct

sloping, and grass should be planted on the side slope. Reasonable slope ratios should

be based on the actual situations of the construction roadbed. A one-meter broad debris-

heaping stage should be built at each le el of side slope and the surface of the stage

should be applied with thick materials to recover vegetation.

A regulated elevation should be set in temporary abandoned dregs sites.

According to actual conditions, it is required to shorten the storage time of abandoned

74

dregs and accelerate the transportation. In order to restore the original land use, the sites

should be cleared and the vegetation should be recovered right after the construction.

The temporary occupied land shall be reclaimed, and the occupied farmland

within the range shall be recovered with no land abandoned. The forest land or grassy

hill should plant grass or trees immediately in order to recover water and soil

conservation and reduce its loss.

(3) Soil protection

Surface soil is one of the non-renewable resources. According to Paragraph 2,

Clause 16 of Regulations on the Protection of Basic Farmland, “Soil in occupied

farmland should be used in newly reclaimed land or as soil conditioner according to the

request of or beyond the county government." Topsoil of 0.3-0.4m should be stripped

and transported to the appointed location, and it should be used to reclaim or improve

the quality of farmland soil by the local government.

(4) Farmland protection

According to Clause 31, Chapter 4 of The Law of Land Administration of the

People’s Republic of China, the State fosters the system of compensations to cultivated

land to be occupied. The Owner shall be responsible for reclaiming the same amount

and quality of farmland to the occupied lands. Farmland reclaiming fees are requested to

be paid on the condition that the unit is unqualified with or has no experience in

reclaiming farmlands.

(5) Ecological recovery measures taken in temporary construction fields and

stacking areas

Temporary construction fields and stacking areas should be arranged within the

planned areas and no basic farmland should be involved. The quantity of construction

lands should be strictly under controlled. The scope the construction lands shall be no

bigger than the designed scope. It is forbidden to occupy lands beyond the approved

area.

75

Occupation of all temporary construction lands should be shortened as much as

possible. It is required to reclaim theses farmlands or recover vegetations timely in order

to recover the function of lands.

The temporary buildings and construction waste upon the construction land should

be removed first right after finishing the construction work. The original farmland

functions should be recovered by recovering the water facility, loosening soil, flatting

bottomlands, reclaiming vegetation and give lands back to the villages and counties.

Temporary stacking areas should follow the principle of covering first and remove

next. Before stacking, measures of covering, blocking, and drainage should be prepared

by using woven bags used as retaining walls. And temporary intercepting ditch should

be built around the retaining walls. The intercepting ditch should connect to other

drainage ditches in the areas and set a desilting pond at the end of the ditches in order to

control water and soil loss.

There are two aspects of ecological recovery measures: one is engineering

measures, and the other is vegetation measures. The main contents of engineering

measures are slope cutting and flatting. The vegetation measure is mainly about the

planting on the flatted lands. Before starting construction work, trees upon the stacking

areas should be transplanted. The surface soil should be moved to the boarder of the

occupied land, and it shall be used to cultivate after completion of soil filling. It is

requested to clear the construction land and take measures to recover the original use of

farmlands right after finishing construction work On the condition that the temporary

stacking areas often fail to cultivate crops immediately, barren-resistant plants shall be

planted first to avoid bare surface which may cause water and soil loss. It will be one to

two years before the surface soil is fertile enough to plant crops.

According to Land Administration Law of the People's Republic of China and

regulations of land recovery, the Builder shall be responsible for the clearing and

reclaiming work within occupied lands. The reclaiming work of occupied lands shall be

finished before the delivery and acceptance of construction undertaken by the Builder.

76

(6) Water and soil conservation program

According to Land Administration Law of the People's Republic of China and Law

of the People’s Republic of China on Water and Soil Conservation, it is requested that

the water and soil conservation measures should be implemented during the process of

construction in order to reduce water and soil loss.

1) Prevention areas of permanent occupation

It is required that roadbed soil should be recycled to embankment and roadbed

protection; and soil from dredging and excavating drainage work should be used as

vegetation soil.

The Builder should strengthen the management of the project. It is required to

finish the filling and digging together, and it is forbidden to pile the construction waste

along the riverside. The soil filling roadbed should be compacted in order to avoid water

and soil loss.

2) Prevention areas of temporary occupations

Temporary occupations mainly include temporary construction waste field and

mud pit and so forth.

The pre-cast yard and mixing system of construction demand for numbers of sands

and rocks. It is requested to take temporary prevention and drainage measures. It is

required to use grass bags around the stacking field and dig drainage ditches around the

construction areas. No prevention measure of water and soil conservation is required in

the temporary construction area and living area. The Builder is responsible for clearing

construction wastes within the areas and take measures to recover the original use of

farmlands right after finishing construction work. Dumping construction waste to the

rivers is forbidden.

3) Others

It is required that the scopes and numbers of construction areas should be

minimized as much as possible. Construction shall be done within as per designed area

77

and not extended without permission, while excavation sites shall be minimized. It is

recommended not to enter the construction area too early if the construction work can

not start immediately.

In order to prevent water and soil loss scoured by the rain, prevention measures

shall be taken together with the main works. Sandbag or grass mat could be used as

temporary prevention measures to press the slope in order to reduce water and soil loss.

The construction unit shall avoid excavating along the banks of rivers during the rainy

season.

Landscape engineering shall be implemented according to the design program.

4) Water and soil conservation measures

Water and soil conservation should be the combination of engineering and

planting measures which is focusing on both point-line-plane and comprehensive and

key preventions to formulate a prevention system with reasonable layout, scientific

combination, and multiple functions. According to characteristics of both water and soil

loss and this project, the prevention work should be mainly focus on excavation dealing,

roadbed prevention as well as drainage and landscape engineering of the roadbed. The

water and soil conservation of this project is being divided to three parts, and the details

of the prevention system are on Table 5-1 as below.

(7) Cultural relics protection

If any cultural relics were discovered during the construction, the Builder shall

prevent the scenes immediately and report timely to local cultural relic management

department and wait for disposals before any further constructions, according to the

Law of the People’s Republic of China on Protection of Cultural Relics (Dec. 29th,

2007). Cultural heritage reporting procedure is set out on Fig. 5-1 below.

During the construction, if any cultural relics were discovered, the Builder should

take the following measures:

(1) Stop working immediately and strengthen the protection at the scene.

(2) The contractor should report timely to the police and local cultural relic

management department.

(3) Delimit protection range immediately when the findings are defined as cultural

relics by experts.

(4) It is required to rescue the cultural relics during the pressing construction

period or there is the potential of damage.

(5) Rescuing work of cultural relics must be conducted by experts using special

equipment. The contractor shall not explore cultural relics without authorization.

(6) Once the cultural relics are defined as important explorations, an argument is

needed to discuss whether the construction could be continued in other places.

79

Fig. 5-1 Cultural Heritage Reporting Procedure

5.4.3 Operation period

The main ecological protection measure is to strengthen the management of

afforestation on both roadsides to ensure the healthy growth of the plants.

Build landscape strips according to the ecology construction plan.

5.5 Social Impact Mitigation Measures(1) Public infrastructure

The construction unit should contact with the electric and communication

department before the road construction, in order to reduce the disassembly and removal

of electric and communication facilities. For those facilities that must be removed,

alternative facilities should be built before the removal.

(2) Measures to mitigate the impact on local transportation

Build relief roads or operate on one side of roads during the construction period.

Strengthen traffic management within the construction areas by limiting or separating

measures, in order to curb the impact on residences and traffic jams caused by the

increasing construction vehicles.

Essential passing space should be provided on the vertical roads and the crossroad

traffic management should be strengthened when crossing the vertical roads. Notices

should be put during the construction on vertical roads. In order to curb the impact on

the crossing roads, the construction unit should minimize the construction period and

manage the vehicle separation.

5.6 Landscape Preservation and Landscaping Measures

(1) Landscape preservation

This project does not cross any cultural or natural landscape and there is no cultural

or natural landscape within the sight range. Therefore, the landscape protection should

focus on the construction’s landscape design, including road structures such as roadbed,

retaining wall, revetment, and drainage; line shapes such as curvature and slope

gradient; afforestation of the roadsides; auxiliary facilities on roads such as lighting,

guardrail, road signs and so forth. Those protections should meet the requirements of

aesthetics including the shape, style, color, and size. Moreover, they should stay

harmony with the nature and surrounding environment.

(2) Landscaping

Afforetation is the effective measures to improve the road environment. The

constructive unit should make special afforetation design according to the requirements

of green channel construction and water and soil conservation. The construction unit

should pay attention to the following two points:

1) Follow the principle of integration and natural

Pay attention to point-line-plane integration during the afforetation design. As for

81

the point in this project, the design could involve the consideration of crossroad, for

example the proportion of each part of the building; as for the line in this project, the

design should show the changes of seasons and combined with the regional

characteristics; as for the plane in this project, the natural vegetation should be remained

and the beautiful scene of farmland and vegetation areas could be applied. Moreover,

making up for the space is needed rather than unified afforestation.

2) Take flexible measures according to local conditions. The local plants are the

prior choices for afforestation, including trees, shrubs, and herbs such as camphor trees,

chinenses, fuchsias, multiflora roses and so forth. Plant vegetations of noise prevention

and anti-exhaust-gas pollution in the areas closed to sound noise.
