Environmental impact assessment report

The Integrated Transport Project (ITP) for Lesotho will contribute to the government's poverty reduction and economic growth strategy by improving the rural and urban population's access to basic services, markets and employment opportunities. Potential impacts are expected to occur during the project including: earthworks resulting in dust and soil erosion; compaction of soil by heavy machinery; surface runoff; waste generation from construction camp; indiscriminate dumping of spoil material; soil, water, noise and air (vehicle emission) pollution; accidental spills; drying up of water courses; siltation of dams and rivers; social disruption by construction workers; prostitution; road accidents during construction; increased disease transmission; and disposal or outdated equipment. Mitigating measures include: fencing of the campsite and construction area (if applicable) shall be suitably secured to prohibit access by live stock and local fauna; contractor shall at all times carefully consider what machinery is appropriate to the task while minimizing the extent of environmental damage; the contractor shall provide a method for oil recovery. Recovered oil shall be collected in drums for recycling or disposed of at a permitted hazardous waste site; cement products in sacks shall be stored in an enclosed storage area. The storage facility and surrounding area shall be swept and cleaned regularly as required to ensure that cement products do not enter the surrounding environment; dust control by means of water-spraying would be sufficient on these sites; and any erosion channels developing during the construction period or during the operational and maintenance period shall be backfilled and consolidated immediately and the area restored to the proper condition. All erosion damage shall be repaired as soon as possible. Displaced topsoil shall be replaced.
