ABBREVIATIONS AND ACRONYMS
The Kadana Dam is a multipurpose and major terminal project on river Mahi. It has proposed to
undertake rehabilitation measures (structural, non-structural, instrumentation and basic facility
enhancement) under the proposed Dam Rehabilitation and Improvement Project (DRIP II) with a
view to increase the safety and to strengthen dam safety management.
The Environment and Social Due Diligence has been conducted for decision-making on the sub-
project with a view to identify, evaluate and manage the environment and social risks and impacts
in a manner consistent with the World Bank ESF. ESDD has been carried out by studying the sub-
project information and proposed interventions, assessing the magnitude of E&S risk and impacts
with respect to key baseline data in immediate vicinity area; and conducting preliminary
stakeholder consultations. Detailed consultations with communities living downstream/vicinity of
the dam, could not be held in the current circumstances due to COVID19 and these shall be held as
soon as situation is conducive for holding such consultations.
Activity wise environment and social screening has been carried out to identify risks and impacts
to classify the sub-project based on risk level (low, moderate or substantial and high) and
recommend commensurate plans/measures to meet identified risks and impacts.
As per the ESDD exercise, risk/impacts that have been identified relate to Water Quality, Physical
Environment, labour and SEAH/GBV. Environment risks of air, water, noise, land use, soil and
resource use for paint work and road work are Moderate. Similarly, environment and social risk of
labour camp and disposal of debris has been identified as moderate. Risk of all other activities has
been identified as Low. These risks are low to moderate and localised, short term and temporary
in nature which can be managed with generic ESMP and guidelines. OHS is a substantial risk
activity and is being treated separately through OHS plan in accordance with WB ESHS guidelines.
Since risks and impacts are low to moderate category, a standard ESMP customised to sub-project
will be prepared in accordance with the ESMF. The customised ESMP will address the following:
Gender Based Violence or SEA/SH related actions (ESS1)
Labour Management Procedure (ESS2)
Resource Efficiency and Pollution Prevention (ESS3)
Community Health and Safety (ESS4)
Stakeholders Engagement Plan (ESS10)
Overall, the proposed activities within this dam sub-project have low to moderate risks resulting in
the overall sub-project to be categorized as Moderate risk category. These risks and impacts can
be effectively mitigated with effective implementation of mitigation plans by SPMU/IA,
Contractors and monitoring by EMC, SPMU and CWC.

1.1 PROJECT OVERVIEW
The proposed Dam Rehabilitation and Improvement Project (DRIP II) would complement
the suite of ongoing and pipeline operations supporting India’s dam safety program. The
project development objective (PDO) is to is to increase the safety of selected dams in
participating States and to strengthen dam safety management in India. Project
Components include:
Component 1: Rehabilitation and Improvement of Dams and Associated Appurtenances
(US$ 577.14 million);
Component 2: Dam Safety Institutional Strengthening (US$45.74 million);
Component 3: Incidental Revenue Generation for sustainable operation and maintenance
of dams(US$26.84million);
Component 4: Project Management (US$68.13 million).
Component 5: Contingency Emergency Response Component (US$0 million).
The project is likely to be implemented for 300 dams in 18 states across the country. The
primary beneficiaries of the project are the communities that live in dam breach flood
inundation areas and the communities that depend on water, irrigation and electricity
services provided by the dams that could be compromised by poor dam performance or
failure. In addition to saving lives, improved dam safety will avoid potential flood damage
to houses, farm areas, infrastructure (roads, bridges, other public and private
infrastructure) and industrial and commercial facilities. Improved dam safety will also
reduce the likelihood of service interruptions due to dam failure as well as potentially
improving dam service provision, overall efficiency and storage capacity, including during
drought periods.

1.5 APPROACH AND METHODOLOGY OF ESDD
The following approach has been adopted for ESDD:
i. Study sub-project information, proposed interventions, their magnitude and locations
and carry out assessment of each proposed intervention to identify the magnitude of
E&S risk and impacts;
ii. Review relevance and applicability of national and state legal requirements and
Bank’s ESF policy, standards and directives and preliminary assessment of
applicability of legal requirement and ESS framework (2-8)
iii. Conduct site visit to understand baseline environment and social settings, proposed
activities under the sub-project, their location and sensitivity, if any.
iv. present key baseline data essential for impact assessment in immediate vicinity area
of proposed interventions from secondary sources, such as land-use, protected areas
in vicinity, ascertain presence of indigenous (schedule tribe)/vulnerable people, etc.
v. Undertake institutional assessment to identify existing capacities & relevant gaps to
manage E&S risks and impacts
vi. Conduct preliminary stakeholder consultations to help identify potential
stakeholders; to provide information on the proposed interventions; to identify issues
and concerns; and ascertain appropriate mechanisms for continued engagement
vii. Carry out activity wise environment and social screening and identify risks and
impacts. Classify the sub-project based on risk level (low, moderate or substantial and
high) and recommend commensurate plans/measures to meet identified risks and
impacts.
Detailed consultations with communities living downstream/vicinity of the dam, could not
be held in the current circumstances due to COVID and these shall held as soon as situation
is conducive for holding such consultations.

Chapter INSTITUTIONAL FRAMEWORK AND
2 CAPACITY ASSESSMENT
2.1 POLICY AND LEGAL FRAMEWORK
India has well defined environmental and social regulatory framework. The regulation
applicability depends on nature of work and location of work. Broadly legislation can be
divided into four categories viz environmental, forests, wildlife conservation and social. The
applicability analysis of regulations pertaining to all the above four categories was carried
out. The applicability of World Bank ESF comprising, 10 ESSs (ESS1 to ESS10) to the
proposed rehabilitation proposals and Standard specific requirements were analysed.
Further, a comparison of national environmental and social regulations versus World
Bank’s ESS has been carried out along with the gap analysis. Applicability of Indian
regulations, World Bank’s ESS along with comparison and gap analysis is discussed in ESMF.
Central Water Commission, Ministry of Jal Shakti, Government of India has prepared
“Operational Procedures for Assessing and Managing Environmental Impacts in Existing
Dam Projects” and is under publication as a guiding document for the dam owners to
systematically address in advance the environmental safeguard requirements and have
discussed in detail all applicable legal requirement. Reference has been drawn from this
document as well, while carrying out applicability analysis.
Indian environmental regulations requiring environment clearance is for new dam projects
specifically for the purpose of hydropower generation and/or irrigation projects and vary
with generation capacity for hydropower projects and culturable command area served by
irrigation projects. Forest related clearances become applicable, if new or any modification
in any existing project requires diversion of forest land for non-forestry purposes. Wildlife
Clearance process gets triggered if the project is in proximity to protected area or activities
are proposed within protected or conservation areas (CA).
Therefore, for the proposed dam rehabilitation activities at Kadana dam, regulatory
clearances will not be applicable as per Indian regulation. Another applicable regulatory
requirement is discussed in ESMF.
14
Salinity ingress in the gulf areas
Consumptive use of water resources for maintaining water balance
Transfer water to the scarcity hit areas and areas facing acute shortage of water
The sub-project will be implemented by EE, Kadana Division No.1. NWRWS&K has
established a formal system of dealing with public complaints and grievances. Its website
(https://guj-nwrws.gujarat.gov.in/) provides a public information section where various
instruments for public information are provided. It further provides the list of designated
Public Information Officers for various functions along with their addresses and phone
numbers. Appellate authority over PIOs have also been listed along with their addresses
and phone numbers. Procedures for registering complaints is provided, including that for
Kadana project circle. All the information is available in local language (Gujarati) also.
SPMU will designate Nodal Officer(s) (full time in-house engineering staff with E&S
expertise) to coordinate and supervise E&S activities. They shall be at the level of Executive
Engineer/ Deputy Directors and shall provide commensurate time to comply with E&S
related activities. Brief TORs for these Nodal E&S officers is included in ESMF. The SPMU, in
case in-house expertise not available, will hire the qualified staffs on need basis to support
management of E&S risks including Environmental and Social Experts for ensuring
compliance with the Bank’s ESF and ESS’s and ensuring that these activities shall be
implemented as per the procedures.

Natural Hazards
Potential of natural hazards such as flooding and earthquake has been assessed.
The gross storage capacity Kadana dam is 1249.30 MCM and height of masonry dam is
58.20m as per the Indian Standard IS11223:1985 classification criteria, Kadana Dam is
classified as a large dam and, accordingly qualifies for “PMF (Probable Maximum Flood)” as
the design flood. The estimated PMF worked out by CWC is 56695 m 3/sec, against the
original design flood of 41483.79 m3/sec, for the dam safety review of the project.
MWL with Original and revised design flood are same i.e.127.71 m even when revised
design flood has substantially increased. DSRP has recommended that the flood routing
shall be carried out considering outflow from Sujlam Suflam Spreading Canal. DSRP further
suggested that, free board will have to be calculated as per latest criteria and necessary
remedial measures like wave deflector or parapet is to be provided as immediate
measures. After the MWL is calculated based on revised design flood, if required, a solid
parapet wall of 1 to 1.5 m shall be provided over the embankment dams. The masonry dam
and the spillway are already having 1 m high solid parapet wall.
Project falls in earthquake zone III, and same was considered at the time of design and
there is no need for seismic design review. The Bureau of Indian Standards [IS 1893 (Part
I):2002], has grouped the country into four seismic zones, viz. Zone II, III, IV and V. Zone II
is the least active and Zone V is the most active.
Mahisagar district came into being on 26th January 2013, as 28th district of Gujarat. It has
been carved out of Panchmahal and Kheda district. District name is based on Mahi river.
The district has six talukas namely Balasinor, Lunawada, Kadana, Virpur, Santrampur and
Khanpur. The economy of the district is primarily dependent on agriculture sector.

SCREENING, RISK AND IMPACTS
4
IDENTIFICATION
4.1 SUB-PROJECT SCREENING
The subproject screening is undertaken following a three step screening methodology as
described in ESMF. Process of risk /impacts identification is done using screening process
considering the proposed interventions at each dam as provided in the Project Screening
Template using first screening format (SF-1). Applicable interventions are further classified
based on their location i.e. within dam area or outside the dam area. Each activity is
reviewed for the applicability under-sub project, location of applicable activity and likely
risks and impacts. The SF-1 format is used to ascertain the types of E&S risks for each of the
proposed rehabilitation activity e.g. Risk/Impact on Water Quality, Fisheries, Conservation
Area, Protected Area, Ecology, Physical Environment, Cultural Environment, Tribal
Presence, Private Land/Assets/Encroachers/Squatters, Labor, Migrant Labor and GBV risks
– each of these corresponding to the ESS 2-8.
The second format (SF-2) is used to assess the extent of risk/impact intensity for each of
the identified E&S risk and is used to categorize the risk level as
Low/Moderate/Substantial/ High. Finally, using a third E&S risk summary format (SF-3), the
risk categories for all different types of E&S risk and impacts is summarized and the highest
of the risk categories is assigned as overall risk category for the given Dam sub-project.
Based on the above findings, the ESDD report recommends Risk category of the Dam sub-
project – whether it is Low/Moderate/Substantial/High and types of instruments that need
to be prepared as part of the ESMP along with the responsibilities and timelines.
Screening indicated that all project components related activities are limited to within the
dam area/premises. Due to nature of these activities, likely impacts will be on physical
environment in terms of air pollution, noise pollution and waste generation. None of the
proposed structural interventions involve acquisition of private land and/or private assets.
These activities in no way cause restriction on access to land or use of resources by local
communities and there is no economic displacement envisaged due to the sub-project.
Activities interfacing with water bodies – river/reservoir will have risk of spillage of
chemicals, construction material, and debris leading to water pollution and impacts on
fishes.
19
setting up of workshop, operation of concrete mixture and heavy pumps will be within dam
area. Other activities such as labour camp and debris disposal will be beyond dam area.
Activities involving machinery and equipment will have impacts on physical environment.
Transportation of material, debris disposal and labour camp are likely to generate pollution
and impact on physical environment.
Project will involve project managers and supervisors, contracted workers – these would
also include migrant workers as all the required labour will not be fully supplied locally for
a number of reasons, such as worker’s unavailability and lack of technical skills and
capacity. Construction contractors are expected to stay at/near dam, set up construction
equipment and machinery near work location at pre-determined/approved sites. Influx of
skilled migrant labour, albeit few in numbers, for construction works is likely. The labour
will stay outside the dam premises; hence risk of SEA/SH is likely.
DSRP has recommended Dam break analysis for Kadana Dam. There are approx. 235
villages of different districts in central Gujarat viz Mahisagar, Panchmahals, Anand, Kheda,
Vadodara. Major town, Vasad, Sevalia Vadodara are located in the D/S of Kadana Dam
having total population of above 1 lakh. Kadana dam being a major dam with a design
flood of 56695 cumecs, (As per CWC recommendation in year 2017) it is mandatory to
have dam break study. EAP is prepared for Kadana dam and is upgraded regularly. EAP was
last upgraded on May 2019. The EAP prepared in 2019, has been shared with all
stakeholders including Disaster Management Agencies and all necessary table top exercise
has been carried out. For warning downstream villages, siren is blown before releasing
water in the river. EAP shall be revised as per the latest guideline for developing
Emergency Action Plans for dams released by CWC, January 2018.
Step II Screening (using Form SF-2): All applicable activities identified as having potential
risks/impacts that were identified through Step I screening, are further screened for
associated sub-activity and evaluated for the extent of risk. Sub-activity’s Risk/Impact
intensity is further categorised as Low (L), Moderate (M), Substantial (S) or High (H) based
on following criteria:
Low : Localized, Temporary and Negligible
Moderate : Temporary, or short term and reversible under control
Substantial : Medium term, covering larger impact zone, partially reversible
High : Significant, non-reversible, long term and can only be
contained/compensated
Occupational Health and safety: OHS is a substantial risk activity in almost all cases and is
not being considered under screening criteria. Occupational health and safety is considered
an important requirement of every project irrespective of size and type of the projects. It
will be part of Contractor’s ESMP.
All other activities are categorized as low risk activities. E&S risks of none of the sub-
activities for this sub-project is categorized as either Substantial or High risk. The outcome
of Screening is enclosed as Annexure II. In case of GBV/SEAH, this site was assessed as
Low risk. Based on consideration of all the above, summary of Risk/Impact (as per outcome
of SF-2) is summarised for major sub-project activities under Table 4.1 below.

4.2 STAKEHOLDER CONSULTATION
In light of the COVID 19 pandemic, Government of India has announced a country wide
lockdown between March 23 till May 31, 2020, that constrained holding of consultation
meetings. Keeping in view the COVID-19 lockdown scenario, during first week of June; the
stakeholder consultation questionnaire is filled up after consulting available Dam
Engineers/staff, villagers residing in nearby villages as well as workers at dam site after one
to one interactions/ group video calling facilities and their responses are compiled and
presented below. A formal consultations will be held and outcomes documented at
opportune time.
Two sets of questions are prepared, one for each category of stakeholders – direct workers
and community. Direct workers included Engineers/staff working at dam (present or
working from home) – full time or contracted and community stakeholders included local
people from vicinity villages.
Stakeholder consultation was conducted as part of environmental and social due diligence,
with a purpose to:
a. provide initial information to the communities on the proposed project interventions
and particularly the non-structural interventions, if any;
b. Help identify potential stakeholders who are involved at this stage and will be involved
a later stage.
c. assess their responses in understanding the potential risks and prepare mitigation plan
to address their concerns

3. Civil work interfaced with water body pose risk of water pollution and impact on fish
fauna.
4. Generation of hazardous waste such as empty paint containers from paint work pose
risk of exposure of workers while handling and require careful disposal at authorised
sites.
5. Construction and demolition waste and muck from excavation for retaining wall footing
require careful disposal at pre-identified and approved site to minimise the risk of
pollution on this count.
6. Rehabilitation work would require labour to work on various sections of dam involving
working at height, working in confined spaces, working on reservoir side, etc; Further,
workers will also be exposed to dust and noise and will have to handle chemicals/gases
for some of the works; these will lead to occupational health and safety risks.
27
Discrimination and denial of equal opportunity in hiring and
promotions/incentives/training opportunities
Denial for workers’ rights to form worker’s organizations, etc.
Absence of a grievance mechanism for labour to seek redressal of their

compliance with the Bank’s ESF and ESS’s and ensuring that these activities shall be
implemented as per the procedures.
SPMU/IA shall advise contractors about applicable legislative requirements and ensure that
contractors prepare its own ESMP (C-ESMP) as outlined in ESMP for this sub-project and
submit compliance reports to SPMU/IA on quarterly basis. SPMUs will share regular
implementation status of ESMPs to CWC and The World Bank in line with ESMF on
quarterly basis.
SPMU/IA shall establish and operationalize a grievance mechanism to receive and facilitate
resolution of complaints and grievances, from the communities and other stakeholders
including implementation partners. GRM works within existing legal and cultural
frameworks and shall comprise project level and respective State level redressal
mechanisms. Most Project related grievances could be minor and site-specific.
EMC (Engineering and Management Consultant) for the project will have sufficient staff
with skills on Environment and Social aspects. Awareness raising and capacity building on
the new Environmental and Social Framework (ESF) need to be carried out for the
environment and social staff engaged and this will be an area of continued focus, with a
view to generate awareness at to dam level. EMC will develop formats for regular
supervision and monitoring on E&S issues and undertake site visits/ inspections of the dam
sites to monitor for compliance; collate and review QPRs and set up a monitoring and
reporting system on E&S issues.

Overall, the proposed activities within this dam sub-project have low to moderate risks
resulting in the overall sub-project to be categorized as Moderate risk category. These risks
and impacts can be effectively mitigated with effective implementation of mitigation plans
by SPMU/IA, Contractors and monitoring by EMC, SPMU and CWC.
Note : Occupational Health and Safety aspects / impacts/ risks are considered important part of any dam project
and this risk is separately classified. It shall be managed as per defined OH&S plans in every project
irrespective of size and type of project.
