| Summary of Environmental and Social Aspects | |
|---|---|
| Environmental Aspects | No significant environmental impacts are anticipated. All the visited project sites are located outside sensitive areas and any impacts during construction and operation can be avoided and/or mitigated through proper design and good high-quality construction and operations and maintenance practices. |
| Involuntary Resettlement | Construction of facilities (treatment plants and pipes) will be on government owned land and reticulation systems would be along the right of way with minimal disturbance to livelihoods. |
| Indigenous Peoples | Although the state has a substantial proportion of ST population (21%), the concentration is very low in urban areas (5.18%). Especially in urban environments, there is heterogeneity of population composition; hence, there is no potential issue specifically affecting indigenous people. |
| Stakeholder Communication, Participation, and Consultation | |
| During Project Design | The stakeholders were involved in developing the project through discussions on-site and public consultation at several places in the town, after which views expressed were incorporated into the project and in the planning and development of the project. The project will be made available at public locations and will be disclosed to a wider audience via the ADB, MPUDC and PMU websites. The consultation process will be continued and expanded during project implementation to ensure that stakeholders are fully engaged in the project and have the opportunity to participate in its development and implementation. Measures were taken to include and promote gender equality and womens empowerment in the design of the Project so that women have equitable opportunities for access to and use of relevant services, resources, assets, or opportunities and participation in decision-making process. |
| During Project Implementation | The public consultation and disclosure program is a continuous process throughout the project implementation, including project planning, design and construction. The Project will ensure participation of all stakeholders, which will strengthen inclusiveness. A constant communication will be established with the affected communities to redress the environmental issues likely to surface during construction phases and also regarding the grievance redress mechanism. ULB/PIU and PMC will organize public meetings and will appraise the communities about the progress on the implementation of project. Meeting will also be organized at the potential hotspots/sensitive locations before and during the construction. |
| Business Opportunities | |
|---|---|
| Consulting Services | One consulting package was already awarded and ongoing. The project will exclude procurement of services that constitute high-value contracts and such activities will be excluded while defining the proposed Project scope. |
| Procurement | 19 procurement packages were already awarded and ongoing. All other procurement packages under this project shall be carried out using country systems based on the commonly accepted good practice principles embodied in ADB's Procurement Guidelines and Guidelines on the Use of Consultants. |
