INTRODUCTION 1.1. SHANGHAI MUNICIPALITY With a total population of over 16 million inhabitants1 excluding the “floating population”2 , Shanghai is China’s largest city and the third largest in Asia. Together with Beijing, Chongqing and Tianjin, Shanghai is one of the municipalities under direct control of the Central Government. Situated within the Yangtze Delta Region stretching from Ningbo in Zhejiang Province to Nanjing in Jiangsu Province, Shanghai is at the apex of a very large, highly urbanised and rapidly industrialising corridor. By 2005 this corridor will have a population slightly over 90 million inhabitants.

THE SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT The Shanghai Urban Environment Project (SHUEP) is intended to provide a sustainable environmental setting for the long-term economic and social development in the Municipality of Shanghai (see Figure 1) while supporting the provision of urban infrastructure. 1 According to the 2000 Census the total population in Shanghai was 16.41 million inhabitants, of which 13.14 were had an urban registration and 3.27 were “long-stay” migrants. 2 Estimates as high as 3 million have been recently proposed SOGREAH –GDM– 655055.R3.1 – DRAFT PAGE 5 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT- THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT, DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT SUMMARY REPORT The SHUEP which was approved by the World Bank in June 2003 [Ref.11] would aim to support SMG to: • Implement the urban environment goal of its development strategy and thereby help to ensure that economic growth takes place in an environmentally and institutionally sustainable manner; • Provide major long-term environmental benefits to its millions of citizens and to the ecology of Shanghai Municipality; and • Develop innovative policies, institutional reforms and financing methods that are needed to support the environmental goals and that will serve as models for local government and environmental reform throughout China. Recognising that to achieve the desired development goals may require many years to resolve and cannot be addressed by a conventional3 (or typical) investment operation, the SHUEP has been devised as an Adaptable Program Loan consisting of a series of loans over a 7-10 year period, divided into 3 phases. A key requirement of the APL is that there is a clear and feasible development program in place to guide implementation of the projects and to provide clear milestones and benchmarks for policy and institutional reform. 1.2.1. THE OVERALL APL FRAMEWORK The overall framework for the SHUEP APL has been formulated in the Development Programme for Shanghai APL Project [Ref. 12]. As indicated in the document, the framework complies with (and has indeed been built upon) the Tenth Five Year Plan and the Shanghai General Master Plan. The APL has been divided into three phases. Each phase has a broad theme leading to a series of objectives, components, actions and triggers, and performance indicators. Although initially the core program/themes of the APL appears to form a continuum in time, in conceptual terms each phase is designed to give prominence to one aspect of the urban environmental strategy being pursued. As described in the Project Appraisal Document [Ref.11]: In Phase 1 prominence is given to further developing the underpinnings and enabling condition to pursue an integrated/regional approach to environmental issues. Investments included in this phase are those that are already known to be priority components of the integrated/regional approach (including the protection of upstream sources for water supply, expansion of shared landfills, complementary investments to increase efficiency of earlier investments). Further development of integrated/regional programs and related investments is expected to be continued during subsequent phases. Phase 1 will also test new approaches to upgrading urban environmental services in a poorer, underserved area through a pilot program. Phase 2 will support implementation of programs that address environmental issues of greater complexity and respond to the deepening of SMG’s work on the environmental agenda (including solid waste management program consolidation, bond finance and a district financing vehicle, and continue to expand the pilot approaches to upgrading urban environment services in poorer, underserved areas). Preparations for these Phase 2 activities are to be made during implementation of Phase 1. 3 It should not however be ignored that Shanghai has had a long and fruitful relationship with multi-lateral lending agencies such as the World Bank. Significant Projects in the environment sector include: • Shanghai Sewerage Project, • Shanghai Environment Programme • Second Shanghai Sewerage Programme • Suzhou Creek Rehabilitation SOGREAH –GDM– 655055.R3.1 – DRAFT PAGE 6 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT- THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT, DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT SUMMARY REPORT Phase 3 is the stage at which the Shanghai authorities hope to begin realising the fruits of their efforts to build up to a sustainable financial system for urban environment services. It is anticipated that further improvements to the operations, management and finances of at least some urban environment service utilities over the course of Phases 1 and 2 would enable the to move beyond the municipal budget to finance their capital investments on acceptable terms, either on the capital markets and/or obtaining finance from a sustainable district financing vehicle. Complementing this is the development and establishment during Phases 1 and 2 of the supply side, including enabling capital market/financing arrangements and institutions. Phase 3 also continues the deepening of the environmental agenda, moving on to begin pursuing some of the improvements in air quality potentially available from the increased supply of natural gas to the Shanghai metropolitan area. A summary of the sectors and key components proposed for inclusion in the Shanghai Urban Environment Project is included in Figure 2.

PHASE 2 OF THE APL (APL2) SHUEP APL2 is planned to continue with the improvements to the infrastructure and environmental needs of the city proper, with phase 2 of the solid waste disposal project, and urban environment improvements as its main tasks. SHUEP Phase 2 will, at the same time, provide assistance to the governments at suburban district and county level in improving their infrastructure and service quality with the focus on several sewerage projects in the suburban area. During the implementation process, Shanghai will try new financing methods and mechanism in the city proper and suburban area. SHUEP Phase 2 will start in the second half of 2003 and should be completed in 2008. Since the outlining of the initial development programme, upon which the SHUEP has been based, a number of factors have intervened: • It has become evident that economic and population growth in Shanghai has been and will continue to exceed expectations as outlined in the master plan of 2002 and the associated sector plans. Although the development programme as initially outlined is still relevant, the sector plans are themselves outdated and require updating to support further the SHUEP. • The award of the Universal Expo 2010 to Shanghai, has further strengthened the commitment of Shanghai to the improvement of its environment. With the adoption of the “Better City, Better Life”, Shanghai aims at becoming an international financial centre, with a concomitant improvement in environmental conditions and service provision. A notable feature of this enhanced awareness of environmental issues is the adoption of more ambitious targets, notably for water supply where it is proposed to provide drinkable water quality to the consumer by 2010. The framework of the APL2 has therefore been adapted to reflect the new priorities of SMG. The components can be broadly sub-divided into 5 categories: • Water Sector Components, consisting of – Shanghai South Water Company Components – Minhang Water Company Components • Waste Water Sector Components (of SMSC) – North West Drainage Area Component – Sludge Treatment Component • Solid Waste Components – Gucun dump closure – Minhang dump closure – Sanlintan dump closure • District Financing Vehicle Componets – Chongming Wastewater; – Huaxin Wastewater – Chongming Solid Waste – Jinshan Solid Waste • Institutional Strengthening and Training An overview of the proposed framework for APL2 is included in Figure 3 Triggers for APL2 will consist of: 1) SHUEP Phase 1 should be ongoing/completed successfully with both SMG and the World Bank satisfied. 2) The various investment plans for SHUEP Phase 2 should be approved by SMG and SDPC and the project preparation should be agreed by the World Bank. SOGREAH –GDM– 655055.R3.1 – DRAFT PAGE 8 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT- THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT, DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT SUMMARY REPORT 3) Approval of the Upper Huangpu Catchment Management Plan, including recommendations for pollution source control and relevant institutional strengthening in the drinking water protection area. 4) Implementation of a publicity campaign for water conservation. 5) Approval of the Municipal Solid Waste Disposal Master Plan, including adopting market- oriented charges on users, treatment, disposal, solid waste discharge fee, service charge policy, waste volume reduction, recovery and recycling, and the management and disposal of toxic and hospital wastes. 6) Start to prepare policies and regulations suitable for service/management contracts and/or a concession, and the signing of a social capital participation contract (BOT or concession) for a wastewater treatment facility. 7) Prepare the plan and prospectus for the issuance of long term domestic bonds for infrastructure financing. SMG will make every effort to obtain approval from the Central Government. 8) SMG will initiate a study on the policy and action plan for the establishment of a pilot water source protection fund. 9) Regulations drafted and submitted for municipal approval for agricultural pollution control.

PROJECT BACKGROUND & DESCRIPTION 2.1. SHUEP FRAMEWORK ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT The basis of the SHUEP APL is the Development Programme finalised in early 2002. This programme was formulated of a framework complying with the Tenth Five-Year Plan and Shanghai General Master Plan as well as the basic requirements of master plans for environmental protection sectors. As summarised previously in the APL1 EA, as a long term development strategy, Shanghai has adopted a City Master Plan (1999-2020) which has been approved by the State Council, with an objective for Shanghai to become an international centre for economics, financing, trade and shipping. Shanghai’s Tenth Five Year Plan (2001-2010) is part of the implementation of the long term strategy. SHUEP’s goals and physical investments completely comply with the city Master Plan which calls for centralized sewage treatment, including centralized wastewater treatment for Upper Huangpu Catchment, to protect drinking water sources in upper and lower Huangpu areas and to protect the environment. The solid waste component in SHUEP will not only support the Master Plan’s requirements for environmentally sound disposal of municipal solid waste but also contribute to the protection of surface water quality and overall environmental and living conditions of Shanghai. The Shanghai City Master Plan includes greening and landscape in the inner city, ring road, and throughout the city with an ambitious goal of 35% green coverage by 2020. The Master Plan also calls for preservation of the Old City and historical sites in Shanghai. APL will fund urban upgrading and in particular, the Old City preservation and improvement. The policy, financial, institutional and capacity building initiatives are an integral part of SHUEP and are the assurance for efficient and effective implementation, operation and sustainable development of urban environment infrastructure and management system. This complies with the policy spirit and principles of Shanghai City Master Plan as well as the direction of the city’s reform. Since approval of the SHUEP, the importance of environmental protection as part of Shanghai’s overall development has been enhanced by the adoption of the “Better City, Better Life” strategy associated with the award to Shanghai of the 2010 Universal Exposition. SHUEP Phase 2 has been developed in accordance with the original development programme and associated sector palnning but has also demonstrated the adaptability of the program by re-aligning the sectors included within the SHUEP with respect to the priorities of SMG. Thus, the water supply management components have been brought into the SHUEP in line with Shanghai’s goal to supply tap water fit to drink by 2010. The closure of the Sanlin Tan dump site within the city centre area and close to the Expo site will enhance the green areas in Shanghai and will utilise further the new sanitary landfill created at Laogang as part of the APL1. The implementation of new financing mechanisms will be implemented as part of APL2 by the issue of a bond for financing environmental infrastructure and the development of the “District Financing Vehicle”.

ENVIRONMENTAL BASELINE SITUATION 3.1. REGIONAL PHYSICAL SETTING 3.1.1. GEOGRAPHY The waste water components are located within the Shanghai Municipality which is at the southeast edge of the estuary in Yangtze River Delta. In the area, the topography is relatively uniform ranging from 3.8 to 5.0mAOD. The WTS component is located in the Shanghai urban district including Putuo, Zhabei and Baoshan areas. The BSMF component is located within Heqing town of Pudong new district along the estuary of Yangzte River. 3.1.2. GEOLOGY The regional geology of the area of Shanghai is generally composed by a top layer of alluvium, marine and fluvial deposits to a depth of 30m. Underneath the alluvium, there are tertiary volcanic rocks and Jurassic volcanic rocks. The volcanic activities of late Jurassic in this area is controlled by the regional fracture structure of Fengjing-Chuansha base. The volcanic basin of Jinqiao Structure develops on this fracture, and is widely distributed to the northwest. 3.1.3. CLIMATE Shanghai has the obvious subtropics climate characteristics. The average annual temperature is 15.7°C with an extreme temperature of 37.0°C and a lowest temperature of -7.4°C. The average annual precipitation is 1127.7mm and the average mean sunshine time is approximately 2,170 hours. On the coast, the average rainfall may be higher and reach 1,428.5mm. The average relative humidity is 80%. The annual average wind speed in this area is 3.2m/s. The main wind in the region is from southeastern direction. Secondary winds are from the northwest and northeast. In 2003, average annual temperature was 17.4°C, the sunshine time was 1,700 hours and the rainfall was 931.2mm. About 50% of the rainfall in a year occurs in the flood season from May to September, which could be divided into 3 periods: spring rain, plum rain and autumn rain. The area is often struck by typhoon or tropical storms during the wet seasons. There were 3-4 intense typhoons in the past 10 years. 3.1.4. HYDROLOGY The location of main rivers and reservoirs in the project area are shown on Figure 5.

The main river, Huangpu River, originates from Taihu Lake which is located 113km away. It is 1113.4km long from Taihu Lake to Wusongkou with the width about 400m and the depth about 7-9m. Mijiadu is the major discharge canal of Taihu Lake with the average annual flow rate of about 300m3/s. Yangtze River is the biggest water resource going through Shanghai. The Shanghai section of the river is approximately 15km wide with the average flow rate about 29,300m3/s. The highest tide observed of this river section is 5.64m. Huangpu River and Yangtze River are the main water supply source of Shanghai. The inner rivers have water level of approximately 2.5m to prevent flood and to ensure the navigation and agricultural irrigation. As Shanghai is located on the East China Sea, inner canals are under tidal influence. When entering the sea the impact scope of the water from Yangtze River could reach 50 km, and normally the inland will not be impacted by saline intrusion, unless there is spring tide or the water level of inner rivers is too low. About 468,000,000 tons of mud and sand are flushed from Yangtze River into the sea, most of which is accumulated at the estuary of Yangtze River and the northern bank of Hangzhou Bay. The sand content of water from Yangtze River is higher than that of water from Huangpu River. 3.1.5. BEACH CHARACTERISTICS The riverside area from Laohaibin to Sanjiagang is in total 24km long, where grass seedling land, reed land and beaches are sporadically distributed with the total area of about 535.2ha.The riverside area from Sanjiagang to Panjiahong is 11.7km long with 399.4ha grass seedling land and reed land. There is a large area of beach, in which there is about 865.4ha of beach above 2-3m and about 166.7ha available for land reclamation. The eastern bank of Wusongkou is used as a 2,000m bathing beach. 3.1.6. GROUNDWATER In the area of Shanghai, the ground water level is relatively high with the water table depth ranging from 0.5 to 1.5m. The deep groundwater in Shanghai area is mainly stored in the sand and gravel soils of variable thickness. There are four types of aquifers in the area located to depth ranging from 20-30m to 240-250m. Shallow groundwater is brackish and becomes fresher with depth. The ground water in the shallow layers has been widely exploited. 3.1.7. NATURAL DISASTER The district is located at the front edge of Yangtze Delta in the mid-latitude of Latitude North, which is affected by monsoon with variable and complex climate and frequent hazardous weather. • Typhoon: The typhoon period is from July to September every year. Typhoon intensity is amplified when there are meteorological tides. • Drought: The drought happens between summer and autumn, with tens of years historical record. SOGREAH –GDM– 655055.R3.1 – DRAFT PAGE 20 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT- THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT, DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT SUMMARY REPORT • Hailstorm: It happens normally between April and August, for example, in 1971, 1975, 1977 and 1985. • Tornado: Tornado happened in September in 1956, 1962 and 1976, which brought severe damage to the local area. • Earthquake: The project area is located to the east of seismic region of Kunshan-Huzhou in the Yangtze Delta which experience occasional low frequency earthquake. The national anti-seismic standard for Shanghai construction is 6 Degree.

IMPACT ASSESSMENT AND MITIGATION The project’s objective is to improve the water supply, the waste water management and the solid waste management in Shanghai in order to increase the quality of life of the urban residents and to comply with national and Shanghai environmental plans. The eventual environmental impacts of such projects are obviously beneficial. However, some impacts with detrimental effects may result from projects implementation, mainly during its construction, with significant land acquisition and resettlement issues, as well as local impacts directly involved by construction activities. The following tables summarize the overall and site specific impacts anticipated from the implementation of the project components and the mitigation measures already proposed in the EA studies.

ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN 5.1. OBJECTIVES OF EMP The role of the EMP is to outline the mitigation, monitoring and institutional measures to be considered during project implementation and operation to avoid or control adverse environmental impacts, and the actions deemed necessary to implement these measures. The EMP provides the crucial link between impacts and alternative mitigation measures evaluated and described in the EA reports and the way these measures are implemented to achieve their mitigation objectives. For each proposed measure, the EMP defines the technical content, the estimated cost, the schedule of implementation, the role and responsibilities of Government Agencies, the source of funding and the way to monitor the results. 5.2. CONTRACTUAL DISPOSITIONS To secure an efficient implementation of the environmental and social mitigation measures, these measures must be presented in the main contractual documentation which includes 1) The Memorandum of Contract Negotiation and 2) the Technical Specifications, through a clear reference to the EA and EMP and should be detailed in the Technical Specifications. Thus, the preparation of detailed environmental and social specifications for the Contractor will be a first mitigation measure proposed prior to the bidding process, with the objective to have eventually a contractual document which establishes clearly the obligations of the contractor, the quantities of work involved and the related cost of measures. 5.2.1. OBLIGATIONS OF THE CONTRACTOR It is proposed to develop detailed environmental and social specifications for the Contractor, which can be in the future easily adapted to the specific context of each considered project. These specifications will be organized into 4 sections: • Section A : Environmental Protection Management • Section B : Labor Camps and Occupational Health Management • Section C : Safety Management • Section D : Social Management Each section will address 2 aspects: 1) Sub-Section 1 : description of the Contractor's obligations with regards to those aspects covered by the section; and 2) Sub-Section 2: description of performance indicators that will be monitored for deciding payment of the services. Section A will specify the Contractor obligations regarding the preparation of a Construction Site Environmental Management Program (CSEMP) aiming at protecting the work sites and their surroundings against potentially adverse impacts. The Contractor's CSEMP will include the facilities and procedures for the management of camps and construction wastes, the soil conservation measures and proposed rehabilitation works once the construction ends, the measures aiming at protecting cultural and ecological assets if any, the preventive measures against water pollution and the monitoring program (air, water). Section B will address the minimum standards to be implemented in the labour camps and facilities regarding issues as workers accommodation, food supply and canteen, waste management, water supply, treatment of sewage and sanitary conditions on site. SOGREAH –GDM– 655055.R3.1 – DRAFT PAGE 50 JANUARY 2005 SHANGHAI MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT- THE WORLD BANK SHANGHAI URBAN ENVIRONMENT PROJECT, DESIGN REVIEW AND ADVISORY SERVICES ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT SUMMARY REPORT Section C will address safety issues, and the related Environmental Specifications will cover two distinct aspects, i) On-site Safety, Personal Protection Equipment (PPE), and Medical issues, and ii) Off site Safety issues. On-site Safety, PPE, and medical aspects address all the measures the Contractor needs to implement to ensure a safety standard equivalent to international practice, and to provide appropriate medical emergency procedures for the workforce. Off-site Safety concerns all issues to be dealt with outside construction sites proper. It covers traffic hazards resulting from the transport of equipment to or from the construction sites, and focuses mainly on the trunk sewer component which will involve construction activities along about 1000km in populated and high traffic density areas. For Off-site issues, the Environmental Specifications will define objectives. The Contractor will detail in its proposal the plan he intends to implement to achieve these objectives. Section D will define the framework conditions for the Contractor to manage social issues related to construction activities. Most of these conditions will focus on how to reduce nuisance to residents, mainly anticipated from noise, from the temporary road closures and the cut-off of electricity, gas, water or telephone services when laying the trunk sewer network. The contractors will be requested to prepare a Nuisance Control Plan (NCP) which will be discussed with Project authorities and other Municipal Agencies concerned and with affected residents during information and consultation meetings. Issues to be discussed will focus on the procedures to be applied by the contractor prior to close a road or to cut-off water, gas or any other service, and on the general nuisance as access to buildings and shops, noise and air pollution. 5.3. ORGANIZATION FOR EMP IMPLEMENTATION The SHUEP implementation will be managed by a Project Management Office (PMO) under the Shanghai Municipal Government. Under this PMO, five Project Implementation Units (PIU) will be created, one for the waste water component, one for the water supply component and one for the solid waste component. The PMO will be assisted by an independent Construction Supervision Engineer (CSE) during the construction stage of the facilities. It is proposed to strengthen environmental and social management during the implementation of the EMP at both PMO and CSE levels. There To ensure that applicable national, provincial and municipal environmental laws, regulations and standards, as well as WB environmental and social requirements are respected during Project preparation and implementation, an Environmental and Social Division (ESD) will be established within the PMO. During construction stage, the ESD will have the responsibility to coordinate monitoring activities with the contractors and concerned government agencies, to ensure the effective implementation of the mitigation measures decided in the EMP. The ESD will be composed of 2 specialists, one Head of the Department (Environmental Specialist) and one Resettlement Coordinator. These two specialists will be assisted by a full time secretary. It is assumed that accountancy needs of the ESD will be satisfied on a part time basis by the accountancy staff of the PMO. At field level, the ESD will rely on the Construction Supervision Engineer, through an Environmental and Social Unit (ESU) including a Construction Supervision Environmental Adviser (CSEA) assisted by Environmental and Social Field Inspectors (ESFI). It is proposed to appoint 1 ESFI to each component (waste water, water and solid waste). The proposed general organization for Environmental and Social management of the project is presented in the following Figure.

ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PROCEDURES The management of the environmental and social monitoring effort will involve open communications between the field personnel of the CSE, the ESD and the PMO. An important element of the communication process will be the organized transfer of information concerning situations that do not comply with the project environmental requirements, specifications, goals or objectives. These situations are identified on site by the CSEA and his ESFI staff, and then reported when appropriate at higher level for decision. To help focus senior management attention on the most important issues, non-compliance observations will be separated into 3 levels on the basis of importance, and communications requirements for the observations will be commensurate with the severity of the non-compliance situation. The proposed non-compliance detection, reporting and resolution flow-chart is presented in the following Figure. 5.4. COST ESTIMATE FOR EMP The implementation of the EMP measures relies on the intervention of several parties involving funding from different budget lines or sources. Most of the activities involve routine measurements, field sampling or testing are to be provided by the contractor, and will be included in his tendered cost. These costs will be presented in his tender in accordance with the requirements and specifications of the bidding documentation. However, the rather limited budgets involved in environmental activities are probably not sufficient to raise a strong interest from the Contractor. Until environmental protection practices become a fully integrated part of construction contracts, penalties are the most efficient way to expedite the process. For that reason, it is considered to establish a contractor obligations budget to a fixed percentage of the construction costs, say 4%. This amount will be split into 2% direct fees to be paid to the contractor in accordance with the progress of the work, and 2% as a retainer, to be paid in accordance with the actual goodwill demonstrated by the Contractor in the implementation of environmental and social measures and for efficient and quick correction of non-compliance. Operational costs for the ESD will be included in the global Project Management Cost related to the PMO and the PIUs. Office and field equipment as well as transportation facilities costs will also be included in the same budget. Monitoring activity by ESFI and CSEA staff is part of the Construction Management and Supervision Cost of the Project. Training requirements involving foreign consultancy will be included in the Technical Assistance budget for the project. Provision will also be allocated to ESD for the appointment of domestic or foreign specialists on an ad hoc basis, if circumstances during the construction stage require such high level expertise. These will also be charged to the Technical Assistance budget for the project. The budget estimate are provided in the EMP report.

FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS The environmental assessment for SHUEP APL2 has drawn the following conclusions: • As previously concluded from the APL1, the SHUEP is well integrated with Shanghai’s Master Plan which has been approved by the State Council and will contribute significantly to the strategic objectives for the city’s development and environmental protection. Since approval of the SHUEP, the importance of environmental protection as part of Shanghai’s overall development has been enhanced by the adoption of the “Better City, Better Life” strategy associated with the award to Shanghai of the 2010 Universal Exposition. • SHUEP Phase 2 has demonstrated the adaptability of the program by re-aligning the sectors included within the SHUEP with respect to the priorities of SMG. Thus, the water supply management components have been brought into the SHUEP in line with Shanghai’s goal to supply tap water fit to drink by 2010. The closure of the Sanlin Tan dump site within the city centre area and close to the Expo site will enhance the green areas in Shanghai and will utilise further the new sanitary landfill created at Laogang as part of the APL1. • The introduction of sludge treatment facilities at both Bailongang and Zhuyuan will largely complete the World Bank supported investment in Shanghai’s centralised wastewater treatment system initiated over 20 years ago with the Shanghai Sewerage Project, Phase 1. The treatment and disposal of sludge will be implemented over two phases: Phase 1 will involve digestion of all sludge and thermal treatment of a fraction with associated disposal to both landfill and land application; depending on the results of Phase1, Phase 2 will introduce progressively more thermal treatment and associated land apllication, thereby leading to a fully least-cost and sustainable solution for Shanghai. • The inovative aspects of SHUEP have been deepened with the development of a “Financing Vehicle” for assisting the provision of environmental infrastructure in the suburban districts, the DFV. The DFV has set up a full set of operational procedures and methods for developing, appraising and implementing the environmental assessments and environmental manaegement plans associated with the DFV components. The relevance of this initiative is emphasized by the increased environmental stresses that will arise in the suburban districts associated with the increased pace of urbanisation and development within these areas. • The project’s objective is to improve the water supply, the waste water management and the solid waste management in Shanghai in order to increase the quality of life of the urban residents and to comply with national and Shanghai environmental plans. The eventual environmental impacts of such projects are obviously beneficial. However, some impacts with detrimental effects may result from projects implementation, mainly during its construction, with significant land acquisition and resettlement issues, as well as local impacts directly involved by construction activities. • To further ensure environmental protection and proper implementation of mitigation measures, a stand-alone environmental management plan has been developed involving government and professional institutions for supervision, monitoring, and management of environmental affairs of the SHUEP APL2.
