4.6 Environmental and Social Considerations
4.6.1 Current Overall Situation
A project category is assigned to each package as either Category A, B or C depending on the likely degree of influence on environmental issues with a brief explanation as follows:
Category A project is one which will have a significant negative impact on the environment and may have an influence on areas outside the actual project area. A project classified as such requires an
AMDAL ANDAL, RKLRPL study.
Category B project is one which affects the people or the environment to some extent but with a smaller impact than a Category A. The required environmental analysis is a UKLUPL study only.
Category C project has minimal effect on the people or environment and an environmental analysis is not required. SPPL are used to handle any minor problem which may arise.
All the twenty one 21 packages require environmental impact investigations. There are a total of fourty one 41 studies required, twenty 20 for environmental impact investigations and twenty
one 21 for social studies.
The twenty 20 environmental studies need the approval of the Environmental Agency BLH with five 5 of the studies AMDALEIA to be approved by World Bank WB.
While the twenty one 21 social studies SLARAP and LARAP require the approval of World Bank prior to implementation.
As of end of this reporting period August 2014, nineteen 19 environmental impact studies has been approved by BLH, while all of the five 5 studies that requires World Bank approval, Bank
already issued No Objection Letter NOL. The remaining one 1 environmental impact studies UKL- UPL for Packages No. 4 Ipuh-Bantal is currently under preparation.
For the social studies , twelve 12 of the twenty one 21 studies were already given No Objection Letter from the World Bank WB.
