PPP Project Types Minimum/Common Safeguards Requirements - Amount of water to be treated - Existing use and quality of the water source - Appropriate water quality standards (e.g. drinking water standard, etc.) Adequate consultations / IEC with the surrounding communities on the identified water source especially for surface water, so as to protect headwaters from contamination caused by dumping of wastes, run-off from farm operations, etc. Consideration of the existing land-use and adjacent communities on the specific design and layout of the septage management facility with special consideration on odor management Sludge management system for septage management projects. 5. Solid Waste Management Project Input to the selection of the specific project site: - Type of facility being considered and the type and projected amount of wastes to be handled, including among of waste generated daily and quality of the waste - Space requirement for the specific type of facility and corresponding buffer requirements for adjacent communities - Minimal disruption / inconvenience to existing users of access routes - Avoid infringing on critical habitats and areas with significant biodiversity (e.g. wetlands) - Site should not be prone to flooding - For sanitary landfills, the soil should be relatively impermeable and have a high capability of containing contaminants (e.g. clay), the bottom of the landfill should be significantly above the water table and the site should be away from groundwater recharge area sources and not draining to surface waters - Land use compatibility - Involvement of the community is recommended For sanitary landfills, use of appropriate liner (e.g. clay, synthetic depending on the waste characterization and geological structure) Maintain erosion and surface drainage control measures to avoid runoff to nearby bodies of water and avoid creating stagnant waters that could breed disease carriers Proper management of odor Traffic management plan for truck routes Management measures in cases of storms so as to contain waste materials 6. Renewable Energy Projects (solar, wind, waste to energy, hydro) Input to the selection of project site for wind mills and solar power facilities: - Adequate consultations on competing land-uses in proposed project sites as windmills solar facilities take-up a lot of space - Renewable energy sites identified by the Department of Energy Page 10 of 19
