GAZETTE NOTICE NO. 499

PURSUANT to Section 59 of the Environmental Management and Coordination Act, the National Environment Management Authority (NEMA) has received an Environmental Impact Assessment Study Report for the above proposed project. The proponent, Terui Company Limited, proposes to develop 11- block residential apartments with each block comprising of 2-level basements with 448 No. parking spaces, typical first to 12th floor comprising of (192No. one-bedroom units, 396No. two bedroom units and 72No. three bedroom units), sewer system, boundary wall, gymnasium, restaurant, playground, management office, transformer room, generator room, energy storage room, distribution room, pool equipment room, pump room, ground water tank, an entrance gate, other associated facilities and amenities on plot L.r no.Nairobi/block 160/1694 located along Likoni Road, South B area, Nairobi City County. The following are the anticipated impacts and proposed mitigation measures: Impacts Mitigation Measures Air Pollution • Use of dust screens/nets around the construction site to contain and arrest dust. • Regular sprinkling of water on work areas to prevent fugitive dust violations. • Ensure no burning of waste such as paper and bottles on non-designated areas. • Regular covering and watering of all exposed stockpiles on site. • Regular and prompt maintenance of construction machinery and equipment to minimize. • Generation of hazardous gases. Noise Pollution • Construction works shall be carried out during the day. • The contractor shall use noise shields on noisy equipment such as corrugated iron sheet structures. • All noisy activities shall be scheduled concurrently during the construction to reduce the exposure period. 164 164 Impacts Mitigation Measures • Operation of the noisy machinery shall be carried out when necessary and switched off when not in use. • Provide and enforce the use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) by the workers at all times during the construction phase. • Monitor noise levels as per NEMA & NCC guidelines. Oil pollution • Proper storage, handling, and disposal of new/used oil and related oil wastes. • Routine maintenance of the construction equipment to avoid oil leaks. • Maintenance of the construction equipment to be carried out in the contractor's yard (off the site). Solid waste • Engage the services of the NEMA waste contractor to handle the waste. • Covering of the trucks when transporting building materials and waste. • Segregation of the water at source before disposal to designated areas. • Use of an integrated solid waste management system through a hierarchy of options: • Source reduction, recycling, composting and reuse. • Efficient use of the materials to reduce waste and recycling/reuse where feasible. • Monitor waste as per the waste management regulations. Liquid waste • Channel all liquid waste to the NCWSC were line serving the area • Conduct routine inspection and monitoring of the internal drainage system to identify and repair any leakages and blockages. • Provision of adequate sanitary facilities to the workers during the construction. • Regular inspection and maintenance of the internal sewer system. Water demand • Connect to the existing water supply after the acquisition of the relevant permits. • Drill a borehole to supplement the existing water supply. • Use of water efficient fittings/fixtures for plumbing products and white goods. • Provision of adequate water tanks for water storage. • Prompt detect and repair of the water fixtures and fittings. Energy Demand • Use of solar energy as an alternative source of energy. • Install and routine maintenance of energy efficient fixtures and fittings. • Turn off the machinery and equipment when not in use. • Put off all the lights immediately when not in use. Increased Traffic • Ferry building materials during off-peak hours. • Employ traffic marshals to control traffic in and out of site. Impacts Mitigation Measures • Provide billboards at the site/entrance to notify motorists and the general public about the proposed project. • Enforce speed limits for construction vehicles especially along the adjacent roads. • Develop a traffic management plan to ensure that the site vehicles do not interfere with the regular traffic along the access roads. Insecurity • Engage services of security guards • Install and regular maintenance of the CCTV cameras. • Place hotline numbers on strategic places. • Sensitize residents on security precautions. • Sensitize the residents on “Nyumba Kumi Initiative”. Storm water Drainage • Proper design and maintenance of the drainage structures. • Construct internal drains within the property for storm water management. • Proper installation of cascades to break the impact of water flowing in the drains. • Rainwater harvesting to reduce surface runoff. • The proponent will ensure drainage facilities are fitted with adequate functional oil. • Water separators and silt traps. Health and safety of workers • Register the construction site as a workplace with DOSHS. • Provide PPE to the workers and ensure that they wear them at all times. • Provide first aid kit for the workers on the site. • All workers to be adequately insured against accidents. • All workers shall be sensitized before construction begins on how to control accidents related to construction. • Keep a record of the public emergency service telephone numbers including Police, Fire brigade, and Ambulance at strategic points. • Ensure that the workers are registered with NHIF / NSSF and remit appropriate fees. • Prepare a comprehensive contingency plan before construction begins on accident response.
