ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN (EMP) 2. 1 STATUS OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN. In September 2013, HDEC has provided the HSE plan, which includes the Site Environmental Management Plan (SEMP) and Environmental Management Plan. This plan has been reviewed by the PMU and the Consultant and sent to the Contractor for updating. When updating the HSE plan the Contractor was recommended to base plans on the Environmental Impact Assessment (2009), Environmental Action Plan (2009). This plan was updated twice and the final third version of the EMP was acceptable to PMU and Consultant and was submitted in January 2014. The agreed plan is convenient for the ongoing project and guarantees minimum negative impacts on the environment (the EMP can be found in Appendix 6). The EMP will be implemented by the Contractor and monitored by SJSC “Uzbekenergo” and the Consultant. 2. 2 ECOLOGICAL MONITORING. Based on the EIA, the PMU with the Station ecologist has carried out the Monitoring of compliance with the requirements of the Environmental Management Plan (EMP) at the construction site. The PMU monitoring was conducted one time in November 2013, but the station ecologist conducts a visual inspection of the construction site on a weekly basis. Chemical Analysis Laboratory of the station also carries out monthly analyzes of water samples from the Karshi Main Canal and sewage treatment plants. During the reporting period EMP violations were not revealed. Preparatory and construction works are carried out in accordance with all the requirements of the environmental legislation of the Republic of Uzbekistan. Monitoring of the implementation of the EMP on a regular basis is conducted by the Consultant. During the reporting period, the Consultant has conducted three environmental inspections (one per month). The results of inspections are presented in Appendix 3. 11 HDEC engineers conduct daily rounds and a daily survey of the construction site. Table 2.2.1 provides information on controlled aspects from the monthly HSE report of HDEC. Table 2.1.1: HDEC Environmental Monitoring Table Aspects to be monitored 1.

Monitoring shows that the environmental requirements at the stage of construction works are fulfilled satisfactorily. Due to the fact that in January 2014 the final version of the Environmental Management Plan (EMP) was agreed, the PMU hopes to receive more comprehensive HSE reports from the Contractor, covering all aspects of the EMP. During the reporting period there were no violations of environmental legislation and no complaints from the public. 14 Letterhead of the State Committee for Nature Protection of the Republic of Uzbekistan 13 August 2013 No. 18/768 CONCLUSION of Government Ecological Expertise Subject: Environmental impact assessment of the "Expansion of Talimarjan TPP with the construction of two CCGT with a capacity of 450 MW" project Employer: UE “Talimarjan TPP” Designer: OJSC “Teploelectroproect” Mr. NORMUMINOV A.A. Director of UE “Talimarjan TPP” cc: Mr. MAMANAZAROV M.KH. Chairman of Kashkadaryaoblkomprirody Ms.BAYMATOVA T.B. Technical director of OJSC “Teploelectroproect” Materials of the first stage of Environmental impact assessment of the "Expansion of Talimarjan TPP with the construction of two CCGT with a capacity of 450 MW" has been submitted for the Government Ecological Expertise. The enterprise is located at Nuristan settlement, Nishan area, Kashkadarya region in 18 km from the Nishan area center. The nearest residential buildings are in 700 m to the north-east from the enterprise, in 1.0 km from priority sources of pollutant emissions to atmosphere. To the east from TPP at a distance of 1.0 km there is the rail road Karshi-Termez-Dushanbe. The station is located on the right bank of the Karshi Main Kanal, which is connected with Talimarjan reservoir (in 7 km). Talimarjan TPP is focused on power generation; the installed capacity - 800 MW. The power generation in 2012 is amounted to 5516308.8 thousand kWh. Natural gas is used as a main and reserve fuel at TPP, gas flow rate in 2012 is 1 amounted to 1323074.4 knm³, at that, specific reference fuel consumption for electrical supply is determined in a value of 313.25 g/kWh, heat-167.99 kg/Gcal. At existing situation the process equipment of TPP is presented by one power unit comprising: - steam turbine К-800-20-5 with a capacity of 800 MW with generator ТВВ -800-2. - boiler ТG-805-С3 with steam producing capacity of 2650 ton per hour The structure of block station includes also a starting heating boiler house equipped by four boilers U-50-3.9-440GM with steam producing capacity of 50 ton per hour and two water-heating boilers PTVM-30 with heat producing capacity of 30 Gcal per hour. The industrial and agricultural enterprises of a southern part of the republic are experiencing a deficiency in the electric energy as at Talimarjan TPP with the designed capacity of 3200 MW there is only one power unit with a capacity of 800 MW and being the basic source of electricity generation, thermal power plant is not able to meet the needs of the served region. In pursuance of the Resolution of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan #ПП-1933 dated 7 March 2013, Talimarjan TPP expansion project with the construction of two CCGT is developed with increasing its capacity to 1,700 MW. The structure of CCGT includes gas turbine unit with the electrical capacity of 314 MW, waste-heat steam boiler and steam-turbine condensing unit with the electrical capacity of 157.7 MW. Natural gas flow rate will make 1267.38 mln.nm³ per year (162.964 nm³/h). Emission of smoke gases from new units is provided through two individual pipes with a height of 85 m and diameter of 7.2 m. Management of CCGT is planned through an automated system that allows ensuring of the control of the process parameters and execution of tasks for regulation, alarm and blocking of fuel supply in a case of any violations of the production cycle. Accommodation of two projected CCGT is planned at the territory of existing TPP from the main building without additional land acquisition. For stabilization of natural gas supply with the required parameters of pressure (up to 39.5 bars) the construction of booster compressor station equipped with three gas compressor is planned. Water supply of CCGT is provided from existing networks of Talimarjan TPP (Karshi Main Canal) with consumption for technical needs, taking into 2 account the available capacities 591182 thousand m³/year. Water for the CCGT will be used in a cooling water system and chemical water treatment. Wastewater in the turbines under the straight-through arrangement is removed into the Karshi Main Canal below the water abstraction point. Losses replenishment in the process water circulation system is carried out by a fresh water supply from the additional water intake structures, located at the initial KMC area (from the Talimarjan reservoir). Considering a high mineralization, rigidity and turbidity of surface waters under the expansion of TPP the organization of additional (make-up) water pre-treatment with the arrangement of intake chamber and drilling waste disposal site is provided. For prevention of deposition and salts scaling formation as well as for disinfection the water is treated with the inhibitor and sodium hypochlorite. Number of wastewaters and sewage waters outlet in Karshi Main Canal remains unchanged: - Outlet No.1, through which the sanitary sewage is discharged after cleaning and drain of the water treatment plant in the manifold (collector) K-3-2 at a rate of 527.2 m3/h; - Outlet No.2, directing the partially clean waters of turbine condenser cooling system of power unit No.1 and two CCGT, as well as brine of distillation desalination plant in the discharge canal of KMC at a rate of 144243.5 m3/h. Analysis of the manufacturing parameters of installed equipment shows that at its design the requirements of water-saving technologies are taken into account: for comparison - the discharge of sewage waters from two combined cycle gas turbine will reach 45220 m/h while from the power unit No.1 - 93162 m/h. Thermal pollution of the Karshi Main Canal water as the result of partially clean waters discharge after coils cooling shall not exceed 3°C in the summer. The main source of sewage waters pollution with oil products is oil lubrication system of turbines. Oily sewage waters to be cleaned at the Integrated treatment of production waste waters. Under the expansion of thermal power plant to 1700 MW from 800 MW it is necessary to provide the reconstruction of facilities on the cleaning of oily sewage waters by adjusting the concentration of petroleum products to the background values that characterize the quality of water in Karshi Main Canal at the outlet from the Talimarjan reservoir. During the plant operation a carbon and nitrogen oxides, nitrogen and sulfur dioxides and benzo(a)pyrene get into the atmosphere currently, the bulk is accounted for the nitrogen dioxide - 2847.6 tons/year and nitrogen oxide - 441.3 3 tons/year. Gross emission of pollutants is 3289.4 tons/year. Flue gases from power unit are exhausted through a pipe with 270 m height and with a diameter of 6.6 m. Atmospheric air in this region is characterized by a moderate content of pollutants; Talimarjan TPP and motor transport brings the main contribution to the contamination of the atmosphere with nitrogen dioxide. With TPP emissions the nitrogen dioxide are generated outside of TPP reaching 0.19 of maximum permissible concentration (MPC) that is do not exceed the established limits (0.25 MPC). After the expansion of TPP at developing of its capacity to 1700 MW from 800 MW the pollutant emissions increase to 4431.29 tons/year (by 1141.89 tons/year), and the maximum concentrations of nitrogen dioxide, generating with TPP emissions outside of TPP will make 0.24 MPC (without taking into account a background) at the territory of Nuristan settlement 0.21 MPC. On other substances – they do not reach the values of 0.1 MPC. Specific emission rate of pollutants per unit of capacity (MW) are significantly reduced: from 4.11 tons till 2.6 tons. The generation of additional types of wastes during the construction of two CCGTs is not predicted, their quantity is increasing due to high consumption of lubricants, mercury-containing lamps, work clothing, etc., but standards of wastes generation will remain at the same level. For the purpose of noise reduction, CCGTs are equipped with acoustic enclosure, an Air Filtering and Conditioning System (AFCS) is installed, equipped with a filtration system and air heating that will provide effective cleaning of the air flowing to the suction pipe of CCGT. Environmental expertise of the submitted materials has shown their compliance with the requirements of the environmental laws on the scope and content of the first stage of the EIA and considers it necessary to develop the final stage - Statement of environmental effects (SEE) for the purpose of regulatory actions on emissions and discharges of pollutants into the environment, waste generation and emplacement of industrial waste separately by years in view of the commissioning schedule of CCGTs with a capacity of 450 MW. For the regulatory actions on discharges of pollutants to surface-stream flow under the SEE it is necessary to perform schemes of water disposal separately by discharges and the identifying the sources of pollutants supply in baseline characteristics. Prediction of water pollution of Karshi Main Canal with sewage 4 waters of TPP should be calculated depending on the mode of water flow in the canal. The draft of environmental impact statement of Talimarjan TPP expansion project with the construction of two CCGT with a capacity of 450 MW and increasing the plant capacity to 1700 MW is under the coordination of Government Ecological Expertise of the State Committee for Nature protection the Republic of Uzbekistan. Kashkadarya Regional Committee for Nature Protection should take under control the compliance with the requirements of environmental laws when placing the combined cycle gas turbines at the territory of Talimarjan TPP. Prior to the development and submission of the Statement of environmental effects by the Government Ecological Expertise it is necessary to submit to the State Committee for Nature protection the results of status monitoring of the Karshi Main Canal surface waters before and after discharge of Talimarjan TPP sewage waters.

INTRODUCTION During November 2013, the Consultant performed the first Environmental Audit on the Talimarjan Power Expansion Project construction site to use as a baseline. CS-MM plans to perform environmental audit reports bi-annually and inspections monthly. GENERAL Audit Number: 1 Weather Audit date: November 2013 General: Sunny with small winds Site visit dates: 6-7 November 2013 Temperature Date of next Audit: May 2014 1.1. OVERVIEW Max 20 Min 15 Method of Audit Location of Audit: Power block construction site Cooling tower construction site Administration building Temporary workers camp Visual inspections Interviews with HDEC and subcontractor (PGU Tupalang) in English and Russian Progress Details: Documents reviewed: HSE Plan, HDEC, September 2013 Draft EMP, HEDC, November 2013 Levelling of ground near the cooling tower Construction of welding workshops Construction of toilets in the power block area Removing of foundations in the power block area Repairs in the administration building Repairs in cafeteria building Temporary workers camp is in operation. Date Signed – Environmental and Social Expert CS-MM Natasha Sim In December 2009, an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and an Environmental Management Plan (EMP) were created for the project by Uzbekenergo and agreed with the ADB. It is a condition of the Loan Agreement between the Republic of Uzbekistan and the Asian Development Bank (ADB) that these plans to be adhered to. In September 2013, HDEC provided an HSE Plan that included a Site Based Management Plan (SBMP) and environmental management plan. It was not apparent that the measures, proposed in the EIA and EMP (2009), were taken into account. Based on the recommendations from the Consultant and the PMU it was decided that HDEC would create a new EMP based on the EIA (2009), EMP (2009), and best practice and agree this plan with the Client. The new plan will then be adhered to by the Contractor and monitored by Uzbekenergo and the Consultant. In November 2013 HDEC produced a draft version of an EMP, which is currently being finalized and translated. Once the official version has been relayed to the PMU, the Consultant will provide comments to ensure the plan is suitable for the Client and ensures minimal negative environmental impacts. For the Environmental Audit presented in this report the Consultant prepared a checklist for evaluation. It is expected that most measures suggested in this checklist will be included in the agreed EMP. All applicable actions for this stage in construction have been evaluated and where non-compliance is observed comments and recommendations have been made. In the future the agreed EMP will be used for monitoring purposes. At the time of the Audit HDEC, one sub-contractor, PGU Tupalang, and CS-MM were on site. Table 1 describes the breakdown of staff on site at the time of the site visit and Table 2 gives the details of those interviewed during the Audit.

Table 3: Overall Questions Question 1 Was it possible for the Auditor to review a HSE Plan before? Answer and/or Comments Done Yes. The CS-MM Team Leader, Terry Foote, and the Environmental expert, Natasha Sim, reviewed the HSE Plan and provided comments to the PMU. It is not apparent that the HSE Plan takes into account all of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) or the Environmental Management Plan (EMP) measures. Observe prominent locations to see if HSE policy has been posted (including offices, reception, meeting rooms, changing rooms, etc.) Offices are not yet established on site. However the Policy could be displayed at the temporary workers camp on the display board. 3 Meeting the HSE officer on site Yes, meeting was held with Mr. Kim and Mr. Husan from HDEC. As well as the sub-contractor H&S Officer. 4 Site maps and layout At the moment site maps and layouts related to the environment are not available. We have recommended that these be created (i.e. maps showing location of waste disposal, storage of hazardous material, sampling points, etc.) 2 5 Attend an environmental induction session HDEC The first HSE induction session focused only on H&S and was held on the 31 October 2013. By the end of November approximately 200 inductions have taken place. Currently no environmental induction sessions are taking place however this is necessary. Once environmental induction and training sessions start to take place the Consultant will review them. 6 Attend a site tour We visited the power block area, cooling tower area, and Site Garage/batching plant area 7 Review of the HSE Policy The HSE Policy is displayed in the HSE Plan and the EMP document. It is signed and dated by management and reviewed annually (the next review will be January 2014). The policy is not made readily available to employees and should be included in the environmental induction sessions. Signed and dated by management Commitment to HSE Reviewed annually Made available to employees 8 Are workers made aware and trained on Action to be taken During the safety induction sessions the PPE requirements are explained.

CONCLUSIONS AND FUTURE AUDITS The Consultant’s largest concern is the lack of an agreed EMP at this stage in construction. A plan should have been discussed and approved to before site-work began, and therefore it is crucial that an EMP be settled before the end of the 2013. It is an essential component of the construction process and a requirement of the ADB. Despite the lack of a formalized plan, negative environmental mitigation measures on site are being implemented adequately however improvements can be made. Control plans for waste management, air emissions, noise, and wastewater must be created and implemented as soon as possible. Environmental induction and training sessions need to be planned for as well. The “Recommended Actions” column in Table 4 describes the measures that need to be improved in more detail. Furthermore HDEC must agree a standard monthly reporting format with the PMU. The report should include: EMP implementation (format could be similar to this audit) Results of any environmental tests (water samples, noise tests, etc.) Copies of applicable contracts or agreements (waste management contracts, agreements with SES, etc.) Statistics on number of environmental inductions, number of workers on site, any environmental accidents (spills, leaks, etc.), and H&S data. The next audit will take place in May 2014 and as previously stated the agreed EMP will be used for monitoring. Future environmental audits will also make use of Table 5, Table 6, and Table 7. In addition, once environmental induction and training sessions are created, they will be reviewed and comments on (using Table 8).
