Located near the National Highway 1A, the center of Hanoi 10km, the international

border gate Lang Son 150km and Hai Phong port less than 100km.

6.2 Climate, topography and pedology:

a/ Climate:

Regional climate installed transmission line and substations are relatively fresh, noise

and small vibrations located in the urban of the capital. The climate is characterized by

tropical climate, summer, winter and little rain falls. Hot season from May to September,

heavy rainfall, average temperature of 28.1°C. From November to March is the winter

climate with average temperature of 18.6°C with four seasons: spring, summer, autumn

and winter. However, substation location has been designed with high background 0.3m

above the road surface in connection with the station, the tower 110kV transmission line

is built with high tower foundation (elevation equivalent ground substation) to avoid the

effects of storm. So, can see the construction of the subproject area is not affected by

floods every year.

b/ Topography:

Topography mainly on rice land, local area as plain accumulation, relatively flat

terrain. Route planning to avoid construction areas, residential areas and 01 urban roads

cut through the (future planning). Public roads of 2.5 meters to 4 meters wide is relatively

convenient for the transporting of materials and equipment.

7. SUBPROJECT POTENTIAL IMPACTS

No Impact Yes No Description of impact

Construction preparation stage

1 Acquisition of

land temporarily

and permanently

Yes - Temporary short-term land acquisition for

ROW and construction stage.

- Permanent long term land acquisition for

tower foundations and substation.



13


- Permanent land acquisition is 3,644.7m2

while temporary land acquisition is 4,129 m2

2 Impact of

affected

households

Yes - 23 households will be affected by temporary

and permanent land acquisition and the tree

cutting;

- PMU will satisfactorily compensate for

these impacts according to the RPF of the

DEP subproject and the RP of the subproject.

3 Any household

needs to be

relocated

No

4 Affected to the

flora due to

clearance for

ROW

Yes The building line will inevitably excavation,

clearing and other interventions in the

corridor area. All damage to crop plants are

adequately compensated under the provisions

of the state.

However, it should take measures to

minimize the impact to the lowest level

possible.

5 Impact on

natural

conservations

No Transmission line and transformer do not pass

through areas of natural forests, protection

forests or protected areas so the luminescence

does not affect the flora and fauna in this area.

6 Risk to people’s

health caused by

explosive or

chemical

substances

No The subproject would not use chemical

substances and explosives.

7 Devalue of No - The transmission line and the substation are



14


cultural and

historical works

located in or near any physical cultural

resources.

- If any objects of cultural, historical or

religious values are discovered during

construction, the guidance in item 8.1 will be

followed.

Construction stage

8 Does soil

erosion cause

pollution to the

surface water?

Yes - When opening tower and substation

foundations (foundation of transformer, shift

dorm, control house), the surface soil will be

excavated. When it rains, this surface soil will

be eroded and swept away. Materials for

construction will be scattered if they are not

protected. This will lead to the pollution of

the surface water. However, the period of

implementation at each normal tower

foundation does not last long (about 1 week in

maximum). In addition, construction activities

are not expected to be carried out in rainy and

stormy seasons with each item being

implemented completely. Therefore, soil

erosion as well as pollution of surface water is

insignificant.

9 Noise and

vibration

Yes - Noise and vibration are caused by material

transportation means and some activities of

the subproject such as: tower erection,

conductor stretching and generator. However,

these means and machinery are managed by

the expiration date, the construction time is

also managed (in daytime), and horns should



15


be limited when crossing residential areas.

- If the work is near other infrastructure ones,

it must be embanked and covered in order to

limit the effect on nearby infrastructure works

caused by vibration that may lead to

landslide. For this subproject, its position is

far from other infrastructure works so there is

no impact on them.

10 Air pollution Yes - Air pollution can be occurred due to the

exhaust and dust of material trucks during

transportation, loading materials; or dust

during subproject implementation.

- However, with the average number of 1

truck per week - 2 trips per day for every

tower foundation and 2 trucks per month – 2

trips per day for substation (implementation

in 3 months). Therefore, the level of dust and

exhaust by transportation affected on the

environment is minor.

11 Rural traffic

obstruction

Yes - Materials and equipment are transported in

long distance from the yard and storehouse of

PMU by specific trucks with suitable packing

to the temporary subproject areas. After that,

they are transported to the construction sites

by 5 tons to 7.5 tons trucks. Building

materials such as: sand, stones, cement will

be supplied by the local suppliers and

transported directly to the construction sites.

- With the average frequency of transporting

as above (item 9) and constructing activities



16


such as: soil excavating and conductor

stretching, local traffic obstruction will

happen. However, because the local traffic is

low and the time for loading materials and

equipment is short (about 1 hour), building

materials (sand, stones, soil, etc.) is loaded by

trucks so the level of traffic jam is not high.

12 Damage or

degrading to

rural traffic-

ways

No All materials and equipment are in load

sharing, suitable for the load of roads. Traffic-

ways here are known as highway (1A

National highway, township roads and some

other inter-village, inter-commune roads).

13 Damage to

biological

resources

No In the subproject construction site, there are

not many wild animals and plants, mainly

birds, bats and squirrels. The permanent

acquisition land is about 121m2

/ 1 tower

foundation (02 positions) and the substation

acquired about 3,402.7m2. These positions

are located at rice land. Therefore, as the level

of flora surface clearance as well as land

acquisition for animals is not considerable,

there is no loss to the biological diversity in

the area.

14 Solid waste

causes by soil

excavation, tree

cutting in ROW

and constructing

activities

Yes Solid waste due to soil excavation (remains of

soil and stones), tree cutting (body) or

construction activities (junk iron, stones,

sand, plastic bottles, cement wraps) will be

generated during implementation. The

impacts of solid waste will be minimized .

15 Impact on Yes It is expected to build 01 camp in the



17


environment

caused by the

workers

construction site of the substation for

workers. Local people’s houses will be rented

for warehouses and storehouses of material

and equipment. Therefore, water and sewages

of workers will affect the surrounding

environment if no method to protect the

environment is applied. However, the

organization of construction site is always

concerned by the investors. Bidding

documents will include requirements on

environmental mitigation measures during

construction: installing septic tanks, create

drainage channels, installing garbage pits, etc.

in compliance with the regulations of the

local area. Hence, the impact on environment

by workers is not considerable.

16 Conflict

between

construction

workers and

local people

Yes - There are differences between the workers

and local people in income, lifestyle and

custom. However, there is not deep conflict

between them because they all use

Vietnamese as a means of communication.

The workers have to follow regulations of

contractors as well as the local area. To

minimize the risks of conflicts, the subproject

uses some local labour in manual work.

- The subproject will bring benefits to the

local community so it gains lots of agreement

from the local people as well as the close

coordination local Authorities.

17 Health and

safety for

Yes Accidents can occur during implementation if

safety regulations is not strictly followed,



18


workers and

local people

such as: checking tools before use, setting up

warning signs (at sites of incomplete pole

foundation, at sites of generators and

conductor stretching, sites near roads, sites

where loading materials and equipment is

being carried out, sites where there are people

working high above). These accidents can

happen not only to the workers but also to

local people. These risks can be mitigated to

the minimum.

18 Landmine or

bomb left after

war

No This area has been mined and used across

multiple crop cultivation should be able to

mine left over after the war is very low.

However, the PMU will coordinate with

military units to demining plans before

construction.

Operation stage

19 Development

and poverty

reduction

Yes - Mainly taking part in the attraction of

investment and local economic development

because industrial production cannot be done

without power.

- Assisting agricultural production and other

services including healthcare and education.

20 Causing

partition of

natural

environment

that lead to the

easy invasion

into wild land

No - The subproject would not build any access

roads.

- After the construction of tower foundation

and the tower, the temporary acquired layout

will be returned as it was in the past. The

entire flora less than 4m in ROW will be

remained so the impact to natural



19


environment is not significant. The subproject

is not located in wild land so there is no

impact.

21

Health and

safety for

operators and

local people

Yes Electrical shocks and other accidents can

occur. However, all measures and safe tools

are always checked routinely under the

regulations for every tool and frequently

before use. Danger indicators always have to

be remained so accidents are unlikely to

happen.

22 Electric

magnetic field

No The transmission line and the substation are

designed and constructed according to the

current regulations and standards of the

Power Sector, in which, the calculation of

electrical magnetic field negative effects and

the standards of electrical safety and safety in

operation is applied in order to avoid harm to

people. before putting the subproject into

operation, all safe indicators have to be

specified through tests, experiments and

acceptance to ensure that they meet the

standards and regulations set by the investors,

Operational Management Unit, contractors so

the operators and the local people will not be

harmed by the magnetic field.

23 Impact on

planes, birds and

bats

Yes In the subproject area, there are few flying

animals like bats or squirrels but a few kinds

of birds and domestic animals, so there is no

impact on flying animals.

The tower/pole height is about 29.7m. The



20


towers will be equipped with optical sensing

alarms in order to ensure common safety for

the flying, especially safety for helicopter or

landing and off-landing activities at the outer

yard.

24 Pollution by oil-

wastes

No The subproject would not remove the old

transformer and would not use the equipment

that contains PCB and other dangerous

chemical substances. Transformer oil may be

leaked in case of failure. However, this is

rarely occurred and there is already the tank

for containing this oil. Leakage oil will be

collection without spilling on the surrounding

areas and without pollution caused by oil

sewage.

25 Risks of fire and

explosion

Yes Transformers and other equipment can be

exploded and transformer oil can be leaked

when faults occur. Therefore, fire-fighting

equipment and fault oil tank must be

equipped.
