GREEN MISSIONBeing the key implementing agency <strong>for</strong> governments‟ projects, Jabatan Kerja Raya (JKR)is committed and dedicated to steer the organization and safeguard the environment byadopting the following principles:-Natural resources <strong>protection</strong> and enhancementResource efficiencySustainable consumptionSustainable constructionAdherence to relevant laws and regulationsIn doing so, Jabatan Kerja Raya (JKR) is <strong>guide</strong>d by their <strong>environmental</strong> managementsystem (ISO 14001 EMS) particularly during the construction stage to minimize andmitigate impacts to the environment through controlled site clearing, <strong>protection</strong> andmaintenance of slopes, waste minimization and management and compliance to legalrequirements.In moving <strong>for</strong>ward, JKR is committed in ensuring that all projects are developed in asustainable manner, focus shall be given at planning stage in order to take into account theneed to identify and mitigate <strong>environmental</strong> impacts <strong>for</strong> developments in EnvironmentallySensitive Areas (ESAs) or within its vicinity. Protection of ESA is one of the key stepstowards protecting our country‟s natural resources.i


PREFACEIn line with the MS: ISO 14001 requirement, a continual improvement of the system mustbe done to ensure success and effectiveness of <strong>environmental</strong>ly sustainable approach inconstruction. To produce a clear and comprehensive tender document, revision of JKRTender Documents on environment <strong>protection</strong> and enhancements has been done byitemising the <strong>environmental</strong> works into the Bill of Quantities to allow contractors to tendera realistic price. Arahan Teknik (Jalan) 16/03, produced in 2004, provided changes to theitems in the Tender Document with regards to the Condition of Contracts, Instruction toTenderers, Specification to Environmental Protection and Enhancements, Preamble to Billof Quantities, Need Statement, Bill of Quantities and Drawings.In 2006, a committee comprising multi-disciplinary personnel was set up to revise theArahan Teknik (Jalan) 16/03. Changes have been made in accordance to problemsencountered and inadequacies of the previous Arahan Teknik. The overall improvement isaimed to ensure contractors understand the application of the environment <strong>protection</strong>works that they have tendered in the Bill of Quantities. Notwithstanding the importance ofother technical agencies requirements to protect the environment, some parts have beenadded such as the preparation of Erosion and Sediment Control Plan (ESCP) andmanagement of disposal site <strong>for</strong> surplus material as part of the latest EIA requirements.Drawings of mitigation works have been revised and amended. The revised ArahanTeknik (Jalan) 16/03 is made applicable, not only to road projects, but to all projects inJKR. It is important that all parties involved in the construction industry, be made aware ofthe latest government requirements in environment <strong>protection</strong> to ensure our nation has thecapacity to be sustainable in the long term future.ii

CHAPTER 2ENVIRONMENTAL REQUIREMENTS5


CHAPTER 2:ENVIRONMENTAL REQUIREMENTSThe legislation that is related to the prevention, abatement, control of pollution andenhancement of the environment in Malaysia is stipulated in the Environmental QualityAct 1974 (Amendment) 2007. To date, 40 sets of Regulations and Orders have beenintroduced and en<strong>for</strong>ced. Under this Act, an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) isrequired <strong>for</strong> activities prescribed under the Environmental Quality (PrescribedActivities (Environmental Impact Assessment) Order 1987. Those activities that arenot subject to the mandatory EIA requirement are nevertheless subject to various otherregulations under the Act. The standard regulations require evaluation <strong>for</strong> project siting,pollution control, monitoring and self regulation via the audit process.For the states of Sabah and Sarawak, the <strong>environmental</strong> requirements are clearly stipulatedin the Environment Protection (Amendment) Enactment 2004 and Natural Resourcesand Environment Ordinance respectively.Apart from compliance with the Environmental Quality Act (EQA) 1974 (Act 127) andother related <strong>environmental</strong> legislations, the following Acts are also applicable based onits relevancy to the planning, design, construction, equipping and commissioning of anyproject.(a) National Land Code (Act 56 of 1965)(b) Town and Country Planning Act 1976, (Act 172)(c) Street, Drainage and Building Act, 1974: Act 133 and Amendment, 1978(d) Protection of Wildlife Act, 1972 (Act 76)(e) Forestry Act 1984 (Act 313)(f) Land Conservation Act 1960 (Act 385)(g) Occupational Safety and Health Act 1994 (Act 514)(h) Solid Waste and Public Cleansing Management Act 2007 (Act 672)(i) Federal Territory (Planning) Act 1982 (Act 267)(j) Workers Minimum Amenities Act 1990 (Act 446)(k) Local Government Act 1976 (Act 171)6


2.1 Planning/Design StageEnvironmental requirement during planning or design stage is clear whereby if the saidproject has been classified as a “prescribed activity” according to the EnvironmentalQuality (Prescribed Activities) (Environmental Impact Assessment) Order 1987 andSection 34A of the Environmental Quality (Prescribed Activities)(EnvironmentalImpact Assessment) Order 1987, an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) studyneeds to be carried out and submitted to Department of Environment <strong>for</strong> approval prior toproject implementation.Under the Act, there are a total of nineteen (19) categories of prescribed activities whichinclude agriculture, airport, drainage and irrigation, land reclamation, fisheries, <strong>for</strong>estry,housing, industry, railways, transportation, resort and recreation development, wastetreatment and disposal, and water supply projects. Additionally, a Detailed EnvironmentalImpact Assessment (DEIA) study is required <strong>for</strong> thirteen (13) different types of projectswhich include steel mill, pulp and paper mill, cement plant, coal-fired power plant, dams(hydroelectric and water supply), coastal land reclamation, incinerators (scheduled wastesand solid wastes, solid wastes disposal sites, projects involving land clearance where morethan 50% of the area has slope>25 0 ) and logging (>500 hectares). It is to be noted that <strong>for</strong>projects in Sabah and Sarawak, specific local legislations pertaining to EIA requirementsneed to be adhered to.For the state of Sabah, lists of prescribed activities are contained in First Schedule andSecond Schedule of the Environment Protection (Prescribed Activities) (EnvironmentImpact Assessment) Order 2005. For projects in Sabah, an <strong>environmental</strong> impactassessment report is required <strong>for</strong> any prescribed activities specified in the SecondSchedule of the Environment Protection (Prescribed Activities) (Environment ImpactAssessment) Order 2005. In addition, a proposal <strong>for</strong> mitigation measures is required <strong>for</strong>any prescribed activities specified in the First Schedule.For projects in Sarawak, an <strong>environmental</strong> impact assessment report is required <strong>for</strong> anyprescribed activities specified in the First Schedule of the Natural Resources andEnvironment (Prescribed Activities) Order 1994.Apart from the legislative requirement, EIA may be prepared taking into consideration thesensitivity of the project in terms of its location, site conditions and magnitude of impacts.In some cases, preparation of EIA study is required by the local authorities or <strong>for</strong>m part ofthe contractual requirement of a project.Findings from the study are intended to provide input in the planning of the Project,particularly in minimizing <strong>environmental</strong> impacts during the construction and operationalstages. An EIA is considered as a planning tool to assist the Project Initiator inanticipating impacts of the development, both beneficial and adverse, with an aim tomaximize the beneficial impacts and minimize the adverse impacts on the environment.For better understanding of the EIA process and procedures, an EIA flow chart <strong>for</strong> bothPreliminary EIA and Detailed EIA are shown in Figures 1 and 2. Similarly, a simple EIAflow chart <strong>for</strong> Sarawak and Sabah are shown in Figures 3 and 4.7

2.2 Implementation/ Construction StageIn order to monitor Project‟s compliance with the general requirements of the Client‟sneeds and relevant <strong>environmental</strong> legislation, an Environmental Management Plan(EMP) shall be prepared as detailed herein. The EMP shall be prepared in accordance tothe <strong>for</strong>mat or <strong>guide</strong>lines recommended by the Department of Environment (DOE) and/orother relevant government departments‟ requirements. These <strong>guide</strong>lines shall provide theframework <strong>for</strong> the preparation of the <strong>environmental</strong> management and mitigation measuresto mitigate on-site impacts to acceptable limits as stipulated by the DOE.The EMP is not intended as a rigid planning document but an active document that shallbe revised and improved, as and when required, throughout the implementation stage.Proper execution of the EMP is expected to result in minimal adverse impacts on thesurrounding environment and its natural resources.The plan shall outline the responsibilities of the various parties involved in the Project,the <strong>environmental</strong> requirements <strong>for</strong> the Project and specifies mitigation measures and<strong>environmental</strong> monitoring and audit that must be implemented during constructionstage. The EMP shall be prepared and implemented to ensure compliance to the JKR EMSISO 14001.Integral to EMP is the establishment of a monitoring program that serves as aquantitative feedback mechanism on the effectiveness of the mitigation measures.Essentially, the monitoring program is a set of procedures targeted towards periodicalmeasurement of <strong>environmental</strong> indicators that provides a plat<strong>for</strong>m to evaluate<strong>environmental</strong> per<strong>for</strong>mance through comparisons against baseline and compliance levels.Selection of <strong>environmental</strong> components to monitor, their locations, parameters andfrequency of monitoring are governed by the EIA approval conditions or by a RegisteredEnvironmental Consultant (if no EIA was carried out <strong>for</strong> the project). As a norm,monitoring is centered on the issues of water, noise and air qualities likely to be impactedupon by the Project.The auditing procedure and schedule shall be detailed out in the EMP. The audit shallfocus on the implementation of the EMP and/or other <strong>environmental</strong> managementelements. The <strong>environmental</strong> auditor shall have the necessary expertise and experience toexecute the tasks diligently and professionally in accordance with the requirements of JKREMS: MS ISO 14001 and shall undertake the following tasks:-(a)(b)(c)(d)To carry out <strong>environmental</strong> compliance audits quarterly and closure audit oncompletion of the project;To evaluate monitoring data <strong>for</strong> water, air, noise qualities and if applicablevibration qualities;To verify implementation of corrective and preventive action findings on adequacyof compliance to the EMP and/or JKR EMS ISO 14001;To prepare a comprehensive <strong>environmental</strong> auditing report in compliance toelements as stated in the EMP and/or JKR EMS ISO 14001;12


2.3 Operational/Post Construction StageUpon submission and acceptance of the closing audit at the end of the construction period,monitoring of operational activities in compliance to the necessary laws and regulations isencouraged to be continued during the post construction stage in order to ensure that theoperational stage of the project does not cause any <strong>environmental</strong> damage. The impact ofgenerated wastewater has been deemed to be the more significant residual impact thatrequires further monitoring. The quality of any wastewater discharged must comply withthe limits as stipulated by the Environmental Quality (Sewage) Regulations 2009.2.4 Applicable GuidelinesThe use of the relevant Guidelines in the planning/design stage of the project is deemednecessary in order to ensure the project activities do not violate any applicable laws andregulations. The <strong>guide</strong>lines need to be used in respect to the project site specificconditions.The General <strong>guide</strong>lines applicable are as follows:-Area to be developedGeneral SitesHill slope and SensitiveSitesApplicable Guidelines Guidelines <strong>for</strong> the Environmental Impact Assessmentof Highway/Road Projects, JKR Malaysia Environmental Impact Assessment Guidelines <strong>for</strong>Housing and New Township Development Project,DOE 2003 Urban Storm Water Management Manual <strong>for</strong> Malaysia(Manual Saliran Mesra Alam Malaysia), JPS 2000 Guidelines <strong>for</strong> Prevention and Control of Soil Erosionand Siltation in Malaysia, DOE 1996 Environmental Audit Guidance Manual, DOE 2009 Submission checklist <strong>for</strong> stormwater management inMalaysia, DID 2008 Cabinet Committee Guidelines on Hill slopedevelopment; KPKT Guidelines <strong>for</strong> Development of Hilly Areas,JPBD 2009; JKR Manual on Slope MaintenanceCoastal SitesJPS Guidelines 1/97 Erosion Control <strong>for</strong> CoastalDevelopment Area, 1997;Planning Standards <strong>for</strong> Coastal Areas, JPBDPlanning Standards <strong>for</strong> the Physical Development ofIslands, JPBDNote: The above <strong>guide</strong>lines are not exhaustive.13

TITLE OF DOCUMENT: ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN (EMP)STANDARD REPORT FORMAT FOR JKR PROJECTS1.0 Definition of EMPAn EMP is basically a documentation of administrative <strong>environmental</strong>management and coordination procedures <strong>for</strong> onside management in order toensure that all development activities complies with the EIA approval conditions asstipulated by DOE. It must show the commitment of the project proponent in termsof accountability and availability of resources. An EMP should be improved andadapted throughout the life of the project to reflect changing conditions. It mustalso be subjected to periodic review to ensure it‟s continues relevance and validity.2.0 Objectives of EMPThe main objectives of the Environmental Management Plan (EMP) is to set out acomprehensive programme which will <strong>for</strong>m the basis <strong>for</strong> implementing<strong>environmental</strong> mitigation measures, <strong>environmental</strong> monitoring and <strong>environmental</strong>auditing of the construction works by the Contractor as listed below:(a)(b)(c)(d)To set out various <strong>environmental</strong> <strong>protection</strong> / conservation measures thatcon<strong>for</strong>m to the <strong>environmental</strong> conditions stipulated in the Specifications,EIA report and by other relevant authorities (e.g. the Department ofEnvironment (DOE);To ensure that the Contractor comply with all applicable <strong>environmental</strong>standards and <strong>guide</strong>lines, legislative requirements and other relevantconditions related to the environment;To specify a detailed <strong>environmental</strong> monitoring and auditing programme toensure that the Contractor and all his Sub-contractors comply with allstipulated requirements throughout the duration of the project; andTo streamline the different functions of various sections and authoritiesrelated to the <strong>environmental</strong> matters during the construction.3.0 General In<strong>for</strong>mation about the ProjectThe following details are needed to help commence the preparation of the EMP:-(i)(ii)(iii)(iv)(v)Project ContractorProject TitleCondition of ContractProject CostDuration of Contract121
