21.5.1.3 EH&S Management of HPPs during operation<br />

A number of EH&S issues will also have to be dealt with during normal operation of an<br />

HPP. This will be the subject of this module. Some important aspects to be covered:<br />

� Occupational health of plant staff.<br />

� Managing of the transition phase from construction to operation: these concerns,<br />

e.g., on-going monitoring programs, if any, as might be required for a final<br />

assessment of project impacts and the definition of follow-up measures (e.g.<br />

monitoring of fish populations and, based on results, definition and<br />

implementation of a reservoir fisheries management program).<br />

� Environmental consequences of plant operation: residual flow, water quality in<br />

the reservoir, water quality and river discharge issues in the downstream area,<br />

etc.<br />

� Monitoring and reporting.<br />

21.5.2 Training Courses<br />

The topics will be addressed in a general manner, i.e. pointing out issues to be dealt<br />

with in any such project, but special emphasis will be put on the specific situation and<br />

conditions presented by Mt. Coffee HPP. For illustration purposes and possibly for<br />

some specific group work, examples from other projects will be used as well.<br />

Each of the chosen topics will be treated in a two day workshop. The following methods<br />

will be applied:<br />

� Lectures, formal (classroom) teaching.<br />

� Discussions with/among participants.<br />

� Group work, including presentation of results by participants.<br />

It is important that participants will also be able to contribute their own experience with<br />

these topics.<br />

21.5.3 Participants<br />

LEC and the other entities involved will have to identify the persons who will<br />

participate in these training courses. The Consultant would like to make following<br />

suggestions:<br />

� LEC:<br />

o Person responsible for environmental issues at LEC (environmental<br />

engineer or any other equivalent scientific education)<br />

o Hydrologist, with knowledge on water quality<br />

o Person responsible for health and safety issues at LEC<br />

o Person responsible for social issues at LEC (socio-economist or<br />

equivalent education)
