1 Summary of Preliminary Study Result for Technical Cooperation Project 1. Title of the Cooperation Project, Relevant Project Report The Project for Bridge Construction in Southeast Sulawesi Province Project Activity: Reconstruction of 19 Bridges 2. Categorization and its reason Category B Reasons The scoping revealed that all of the environmental impacts associated with the project is not significant on the social and natural environmental areas due to the small scale reconstruction of bridges required on the existing national/provincial/local road. The Indonesian EIA law prescripts that full scale EIA is not required for bridges not longer than 500 meters. However, an IEE level (UKL+UPL) report, and an approval procedure by the provincial environmental management agency (BAPEDALDA), are both required before construction. With regard to social matters, small scale land acquisition might be caused by reconstruction structures at the some project sites (No. 1, 4, 12, 18 and 20). Although the Indonesian government has an appropriate law as well as procedures for compensation, the Japan s Government should monitor a negotiation between land owners and the project proponent (PU). Furthermore, the Indonesian procedure does not include any system of public involvement in case of an IEE level (UKL+UPL). Hence the proponent in cooperation with the JICA Study Team should hold a stakeholder meeting for consensus on the construction in the basic design stage from the view of JICA s environmental and social consideration guidelines. With regard to natural environment issues, the proposed bridges are not located in sensitive or protected areas excepting No. 18, 19 which are located in the North Buton Wildlife Sanctuary. According to the discussion with the Ministry of Forestry which is in charge of environmental conservation in Indonesia, the reconstruction of those bridges could be implemented based on the MOU between PU and the Ministry of Forestry considering the Project is a kind of improvement activity not new construction one. Taking these into the consideration, it would be appropriate that the project is categorized as Category B. 1

Project Site in Buton Island Project Site in Main Island Figure-1 Location Map of the Project (Southeast Province, Indonesia) (2)Natural and Socio-economic Conditions The land use of the project area consists of mainly paddy field and cultivated areas for cacao, cashew nuts, and banana and secondary forests. No large scale villages as well as historical/cultural heritages, religious facilities, cemeteries were not found in the vicinity of project sites. North Buton Wildlife Sanctuary and Rawa Aopa Watumohai National Park are located near the sites. (refer to Figure-2) 2

4 According to the environmental management agency (BAPEDALDA), EIA category issues will be screened generally based on the proposal report from the proponent. However, the person in charge of the EIA section BAPEDALDA commented that only an IEE level report (UKL+UPL) will be required. This is because the degree of impact resulting from the project must be limited, and it will not be significant for social and natural environment issues. An IEE level (UKL+UPL) procedure is shown in the Figure-3.

6 Figure-5 Location of Proposed Bridges (2) Analysis of Alternatives The result of analysis of alternatives for the project is shown in Table-3. The alternatives include with and without project. With project was further divided into Alternatuve-1 conducting construction of all proposed bridges and Alternatuve-2, construction for the selected bridges. Alternatuve-1 is recommendable from the viewpoint of securing basic human needs (BHN). Table-3 Analysis of Alternatives No. Alternative Expected Environmental Impact With Project(Alternatuve-1) -Temporary water pollution, noise and vibration Reconstruction of the all occurring during the construction could be minimized proposed 19 bridges through an adequate implementation of mitigation measures. 1 -All of the road net work consisting of the national/provincial/local roads connecting Lapoa and Raterate at main island and North-South road and West-East road in Buton island will be completed. This will contribute to secure BHN and variable economical effects.(this positive impacts are based on the 6

This will contribute to secure the accessibility for transmigration people In addition, the plan of construction of national road and ferry route connecting Kendri and Baubau will be encouraged by the reconstruction of those bridges. However, the isolated situation of Ereke will not be improved. -No natural environmental negative impacts are expected. -But equitable promotion of the local economy, poverty reduction and securing the BHN could not be achieved due to lack of stable transportation system. 7. Adverse Environmental and Social Impacts (Results of Scoping and Environmental and Social Considerations Studies) Scoping matrix for the project is shown in Table-4. The scoping revealed that all of the environmental impacts associated with the project is not significant on the social and natural environmental areas due to the small scale reconstruction of bridges required on the existing national/provincial/local road. 7

The river water is used for irrigation at upstream of the some of the Project bridges Inflow of labors from outside might cause increase of infectious diseases. Some concerns of traffic accidents caused by vehicles during construction and by local traffic after completion of the project. Serious soil erosion is observed at some river bank. The second forest of the both side of the riverbank might be destroyed. Illegal logging by labors is concerned. Degradation of water quality during pier construction is anticipated. Solid waste from construction yards and work camps -Implementation of public consultation in the Basic Design -To minimize impact to river users -Encourage to carry out civil works in dry season -Education through public consultation for village people and construction workers during construction -Traffic safety campaign through public consultation -Placement of safety equipments and assign safety staff Appropriate slope protection - Minimization of felling trees in the construction site -prohibit illegal cutting by labors -Establishment of the plan for avoiding water pollution -Appropriate treatment of construction waste and waste from work camp 9

10 11 Noise Vibration and B Noise and vibrations from construction activities -Fixed construction time/date (in respect of residential area, religion considerations, praying time) 9. Whether another Environmental and Social Considerations Study is required at this stage or not? The Indonesian EIA law prescripts that full scale EIA is not required for bridges not longer than 500 meters. However, an IEE level (UKL+UPL) report, and an approval procedure by the provincial environmental management agency (BAPEDALDA), might be required before construction. 10
