2 Appendix A: Sindh Environmental Quality Standards Following the promulgation of Sindh Environmental Protection Act 2014 (Sindh Act 2014), Sindh has notified its own ambient air quality standard. It is understood that the National Environmental Quality Standards (NEQS) issued prior to Sindh Act 2014 remain in force in Sindh unless they are expressly amended, as is the case with the ambient air quality standards. As the Sindh Act 2014, does not have the provision for a national standard and PEPA 1997 is no longer applicable in Sindh, the term Sindh Environmental Quality Standards is understood to include the NEQS (except ambient air quality standards) issued under PEPA However, the term NEQS is still used in this document where reference is made to older standards. Exhibit A.1: National Environmental Quality Standards for Municipal and Liquid Industrial Effluents (mg/l, unless otherwise defined) No. Parameter Standards Into Inland Waters Into Sewage Treatment 1 Into Sea 2) 1. Temperature increase 3 =<3 C =<3 C =<3 C 2. ph value 6 to 9 6 to 9 6 to 9 3. Five-day bio-chemical oxygen demand (BOD)5 at 20 C Chemical oxygen demand (COD) Total suspended solids (TSS) Total dissolved solids (TDS) 3,500 3,500 3, Grease and oil Phenolic compounds (as phenol) Chlorides (as Cl') 1,000 1,000 SC Fluorides (as F') Cyanide total (as CN') Anionic detergents (as MBAS) Sulfates (SO4) 600 1,000 SC Sulfides (s') Ammonia (NH3) Pesticides Cadmium Chromium (trivalent and hexavalent) Appendix A R6V04HUP: 08/09/16 A-1

3 No. Parameter Standards Into Inland Waters Into Sewage Treatment 1 Into Sea 2) 19. Copper Lead Mercury Selenium Nickel Silver Total toxic metals Zinc Arsenic Barium Iron Manganese Boron Chlorine Explanations: Notes: 1. Applicable only when and where sewage treatment is operational and BOD = 80 mg/l is achieved by the sewage treatment system. 2. Provided discharge is not at shore and not within 10 miles of mangrove or other important estuaries. 3. The effluent should not result in temperature increase of more than 3 o C at the edge of the zone where initial mixing and dilution take place in the receiving body. In case zone is not define, use 100 m from the point of discharge 4. Assuming minimum dilution 1:10 discharge, lower ratio would attract progressively stringent standards to be determined by the Federal Environmental Protection Agency. By 1:10 dilution means, for example that for each one cubic meter of treated effluent, the recipient water body should have 10 cubic meter of water for dilution of this effluent. 5. The value for industry is 200 mg/l 6. Discharge concentration at or below sea concentration (SC) 7. Methylene Blue Active substances assuming surfactant as biodegradable 8. Pesticides include herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides 9. Subject to total toxic metals discharge should not exceed level given at S. No Dilution of liquid effluents to bring them to the NEQS limiting values is not permissible through fresh water mixing with the effluent before discharging into the environment. 2. The concentration of pollutants in water being used will be subtracted from the effluent for calculating the NEQS limits. Appendix A R6V04HUP: 08/09/16 A-2

Proviso: < ( By GC/MS method) Annex II 1. The existing drinking water treatment infrastructure is not adequate to comply with WHO guidelines. The arsenic concentrations in South Punjab and in some parts of Sindh have been found high then Revised WHO guidelines. It will take some time to control arsenic through treatment process. Lead concentration in the proposed standards is higher than WHO Guidelines. As the piping system for supply of drinking water in urban centres are generally old and will take significant resources and time to get them replaced. In the recent past, lead was completely phased out from petroleum products to cut down lead entering into environment. These steps will enable to achieve WHO Guidelines for Arsenic, Lead, Cadmium and Zinc. However, for the bottled water, WHO limits for Arsenic, Lead, Cadmium and Zinc will be applicable and PSQCA Standards for all the remaining parameters. Appendix A R6V04HUP: 08/09/16 A-8

86 No. Issues, Concerns and Suggestions By Response Provided 1 The entire dependence of the village incomes is on agriculture and livestock. Currently, most of the village agricultural land has come within Block II and III. The quality of the agricultural lands has already been deteriorated due to heavy machinery that has been used to drill bores. Therefore, the remaining source of income is from livestock. There is concern that any impact on the livestock due to the pollution and noise etc. from the plant will impact the only remaining source of income. The community has no other skills to use for employment. 2 Preference should be given to locals for employment in the Project. Training and scholarships should be provided from now so that the community members are able to contribute to, and be employed with the Project. 3 Asthma and skin diseases may increase due to pollution from the project. There is no local access to treat these diseases and the villagers have to travel to Mithi or Islamkot for treatment. Most fail to do so and small instances of disease become very serious health concerns. SM DK SM Concern noted. Will be shared with HUBCO. Recommendation noted. Will be shared with HUBCO.

102 No. Issues, Concerns and Suggestions By Response Provided 2 The developments in the area, especially at the Energy Park will affect the village. For example, an increase in traffic and construction and operation of the power plants will impact agricultural land and livestock. However as Bitra is between Block II and Block III neither of the developers have assumed direct responsibility for the community. 3 There is concern that the dug wells will go dry due to mining in the area. This will impact livestock as the wells are the only source of water used for the livestock. 4 Rainwater harvesting ponds (which are large open ponds) store fresh water for 3-4 months. If the ash and coal dust from the power plant reaches the ponds it will impact the water supply. 5 The freedom of women will reduce due to the influx of outsiders in the area.

139 Background Information Document for the ESIA of 330 MW Coal-Fired Power Plant in May 10, 2016 Background Information Document on the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment of 330 MW Coal-Fired Power Plant in Introduction The Hub Power Company Limited (HUBCO), (the Project Proponent ) plans to establish a 330 megawatt (MW) Thar Lignite Coal-based Power Plant (the Project ) in the Energy Park associated with Block II Thar coalfields in Sindh. HUBCO acquired the services of Pvt. Ltd (HBP) to carry out the environmental and social impact assessment (ESIA) of the proposed Project to assess the likely environmental and socioeconomic impacts that may result from proposed Project and to propose measures to mitigate the potential negative impacts. As part of the ESIA process, consultations are undertaken with the stakeholders of the project (communities that may be affected by the Project or have an interest in the Project or may be affected by the Project). This Background Information Document (BID) has been prepared for informed consultations with the stakeholders. The consultations are an on-going activity and will continue throughout the life of the Project. The information provided in this BID is subject to changes as further information on some aspects of the Project becomes available or the Project is modified as a result of the ESIA process. Project Outline Following is an outline of the project focusing on its environmental aspects: Project location In Energy Park of Thar Coalfield Block II, Tharparkar district, Sindh (Exhibit 1). Project Setting The arid Thar desert (Exhibit 2). Boiler Technology Generation capacity: Sub critical (circulating fluidized bed combustion) boiler 330 MW (Gross); Approximately 300 MW (Net) Fuel management: Lignite coal from Thar Block II will be used as fuel. Water source: In-plant coal storage facility will have a capacity of 15 days Height of the coal stockpile will be approximately 10 m Dust suppression system (such as water sprinkling) is proposed Left Bank Outfall Drain (LBOD) Limestone In plant lime handling facility will include a lime crushing and feeding system Background Information Document Z6BD1HUP: 05/10/16 1

140 Background Information Document for the ESIA of 330 MW Coal-Fired Power Plant in In plant limestone storage will have approximate capacity of 30 days and will be finalized based on lime stone supply. Lime stone preparation facility for feeding in CFB boiler Ash disposal: Temporary storage in on-site pond Wastewater disposal Emission controls Permanent disposal in spent mine pit, mixed with overburden. Effluent channel The potential air pollutants and the proposed controls for them are: Sulfur dioxide (SO2): SO2 control provided by the injection of limestone in the Boiler. Nitrogen oxides (NOX): Low NOX burners to meet the stack emission criteria for NOX. Particulate matter (PM): Electrostatic precipitators (ESP) The height of the stack is expected to be between 150 and 200 m. Scope of the ESIA The Project ESIA will ensure that the ESIA process, the report, and the proposed Project is in compliance with relevant national legislation as regulated by Sindh Environmental Protection Agency. The ESIA will cover the construction, operation and decommissioning phases of the Project. The following aspects are not part of the Project and hence not a part of the ESIA: The power generated at the plant will be transferred to the national grid by a 500 kv power transmission line. The transmission line will be constructed and operated by the National Transmission and Dispatch Company (NTDC). The coal will be mined from Block II of the Thar Coalfield, by the Sindh Engro Coal Mining Company. The mining operations are not part of the ESIA. The water requirements for power generation will be provided by the Energy Park Management. The wastewater from the Project will be disposed through the effluent disposal scheme being prepared by the Government of Pakistan and hence is not part of this ESIA. The required land will be provided by the Energy Park Management and, therefore, issues pertaining to land acquisition and resettlement are not a part of the ESIA.
