1.3 ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN (EMP)
1.3.1 Legislative Requirement
The proposed project classified as a “prescribed activities” under Item 7 of the

First Schedule of the Natural Resources and Environment (Prescribed
Activities) (Amendment) Order, 2004 made under Section 11 A(1) of the
Natural Resources and Environment (Amendment) Ordinance, 2005.
In compliance with the stipulated requirements of a prescribed activity, an EMP

study on the impacts of the proposed project on the environment is to be
prepared for the approval of the Natural Resources and Environment Board
(NREB). The scope and depth of coverage of such report pertaining to:-
(a) On the impacts of such activities on the environment and on the sustainable
utilisation, preservation and management of the natural resources of
Sarawak,
(b) On the measures being preventive, mitigating or abatement to be taken for
the protection and enhancement of the environment.
1.3.2 Definition
An Environmental Management Plan (EMP) is a planning tool used by the

relevant environmental authority to encourage the project proponent to take
into consideration pertinent environmental issues during project planning and
implementation. This is to ensure that appropriate environmental inputs are
incorporated into the project activities so that they can be implemented in an
environmentally sound manner. The EMP report provides baseline information
and details on the measures that need to be taken by the project proponent to
mitigate environmental impacts associated with the project activities.
1.3.3 Guidelines
The EIA study and report preparation shall be undertaken in compliance with
the approved terms of reference (TOR) and conducted in accordance with the
guidelines recommended by the Natural Resources and Environment Board
(NREB), more specifically:-
 A Handbook on the Policy and Basic Procedure of Environmental Impact

Assessment (EIA) in Sarawak
 The Second Schedule of the Natural Resources and Environmental
(Prescribed Activities)(Amendment) Order, 1997: Form of Report
Cityon Development Sdn. Bhd. C1-5

1.3.4 Objectives of the EMP
The main objectives of the EMP will be as follows:-
i) To describe the prevailing environmental characteristics in the vicinity of

the project site.
ii) To describe the project activities.
iii) To identify potential environmental impacts and formulate relevant
abatement measures.
iv) To identify the specific actions to be taken in compliance with the
guidelines issued by the NREB.
v) To formulate appropriate monitoring programme.
1.3.5 Specific Focus
Having examined the available information on the site and the proposed
activities associated with the project, the EMP study will specifically focus on the
following:-
i) Existing water quality of existing stream with particular emphasis on the
impacts due to the project activities.
ii) Health and safety of the workers and general public during project
implementation.
iii) Management of wastes (solid and scheduled wastes) from the project
activities.
iv) Noise level – to predict and assess the impact of noise on residents nearby.
v) Airborne dust – to assess the level of airborne dust generated.
vi) Soil erosion into the existing stream.
vii) The impacts due to the project activities on the existing flora and fauna, and
associated habitat.
1.3.6 Usefulness
The final outcome of the EMP study should be able to assist the following
decision-makers and stakeholders by providing them with valuable information,
such as: -
Client & Contractor

 The nature and significance of the risk associated with the potential
environmental impacts, which are essential trade-offs to realise the
potential benefits of the project to the affected local community.
Environmental Agencies
 Identification and assessment of potential environmental impacts
associated with the proposed project activities.
 Compatibility of the proposed project’s development and operation with
the existing and planned land uses in the immediate adjacent area.

Project Engineers
 Essential environmental parameters and baseline data required to devise
an environmentally sound design incorporating cost-effective pollution
control measures.
1.3.7 Terms of Reference
The EIA consultant has submitted the Terms of Reference (TOR) to the NREB
regarding the proposed scope for the EIA study. Subsequently, the NREB called
for a meeting to deliberate on the TOR and finalised the scope and coverage of
the study; whereby it was decided that an EMP report be submitted in lieu of the
originally proposed EIA study. A copy of the submitted TOR and Minutes of
Scoping Meeting is attached as Appendix 1A.
1.4 STATEMENT OF NEED
The Project is part of the Government’s effort to improve water supply in the
rural areas under KKLW’s “Bekalan Air Luar Bandar” programme. It is being
implemented in response to, and is part of the planned development for the
region vis a vis to meet the expected need of the planned development that will
be implemented under RECORDA and SCORE. Thus the recent establishment of
educational institutions such as SMK Beladin, SMK Pusa….etc. are examples of
contributors to local population increase following student intake plus the
teaching and support personnel - most of whom are from outside Betong, which
inadvertently increase the need for water supply.
Further, the Project is an integral part of the overall Betong Water Supply
Project. As such it is pertinent that the Project be implemented as planned to
ensure the successful completion of the overall Betong Water Supply Project.
The purpose of this project is to meet current and anticipated treated water demands for portions of the
Kidurong Industrial Park areas.
Bintulu and its surrounding area namely unincorporated areas in Western Placer County which lie
within the NID boundary. This demand will be met by providing an adequate, safe, reliable source of
treated water in a cost effective manner, using NID water on NID lands.
