1 INTRODUCTION NON‐TECHNICAL SUMMARY EIA FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF DIESEL, GASOLINE AND LPG PIPELINES: Staatsolie Maatschappij Suriname N.V. (Staatsolie) is currently expanding the refinery at Tout Lui Faut, about 5 km south of Paramaribo. As part of the refinery expansion, Staatsolie proposes to construct three new pipelines to take Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) from OGANE to the refinery and to take diesel and gasoline from the refinery to the SOL and Suritex depots. SRK Consulting (South Africa) (Pty) Ltd (SRK) was appointed by Staatsolie as independent consultants to undertake the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) process for the proposed pipelines, in line with the Draft Environmental Act of 2002 and the Environmental Assessment Guidelines (August 2009) issued by the Nationaal Instituut voor Milieu en Ontwikkeling in Suriname (NIMOS). 2 LEGAL REQUIREMENTS Suriname does not have approved environmental legislation, although it is currently being developed and guidelines for environmental assessment have been released. The EIA process for the proposed pipeline project will comply with the guidelines and other relevant legislation. In addition the EIA process will be guided by international best practice, notably standards and guidelines of the World Bank Group. Staatsolie’s Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) Policy and Management System have also guided the EIA . 3 PROJECT DESCRIPTION The project includes the construction of three underground pipelines between the Staatsolie refinery at Tout Lui Faut and Suritex, via the SOL and OGANE sites: • One diesel and one gasoline pipeline to convey diesel and gasoline from the Staatsolie refinery to SOL and Suritex; and • One LPG pipeline to convey LPG from OGANE to the Staatsolie refinery. EIA REPORT For most of the route, the pipelines will be installed underneath the western bank of the Suriname River, using horizontal directional drilling. Continuous sections of up to 1.64 km will be drilled. Drilling entry and/or exit points will be located at the surface, from where the drill operates and the pipelines are pulled into the drill hole (see Figure 1). At these points, the pipelines will lie approximately 3 m below the surface. Between entry and exit points, the pipelines are expected to lie up to 30 m below the riverbed (see Figure 2). Figure 1: Figures showing HDD (top), drilling (middle) and insertion of pipeline into the drill hole (bottom) 4 ENVIRONMENTAL PROCESS An EIA is a process to identify and assess environmental effects of a proposed project. The EIA process has two main phases: the Scoping Phase and the Impact Assessment Phase (the current phase) (see Figure 3). The purpose of the EIA is to: • Document existing conditions in the study area and the socio‐economic conditions of affected communities; • Assess the environmental and socio‐economic impacts that may result from the project; • Inform and obtain contributions from stakeholders, including relevant authorities and the public, and address their relevant issues and concerns; Er is een Nederlandse versie van dit document beschikbaar.
