C. Capacity Building

1. Target Audience

151. Members of the Environmental Cells of the SIPMIU and Engineers of Nodal Line Departments associated with the proposed improvements in NERCCDIP will be trained in environmental protection both in theoretical and practical aspects. While theoretical aspects will form the bedrock of the training programme, it will be the practical site visits and /or hands-on training at project site itself, which will be of direct use to the project.

2. Training Components

152. The training programme will kick off with a Sensitization Workshop for Secretaries, Chief Engineers and Superintendent Engineers of the line departments and also involving the Project Director and Environmental Officer of the Project Management Unit (SIPMIU).

153. The Environmental Specialist of the Design Supervision Consultants (DSMC) will provide the basic training required for environmental awareness followed by specific aspects of Urban Sector Projects along with Environmental implications in NERCCDIP. Specific modules customized for the available skill set shall be devised after assessing the capabilities of the members of the Training Programme and the requirements of the project. The entire training would cover basic principles of environmental assessment and management; mitigation plans and programmes, implementation techniques, monitoring methods and tools. Specific issues of Urban Environmental Management shall be taken up in separate sessions.

154. Typical modules that would be present for the training session would be as follows: (i) Sensitization

(ii) Introduction to Environment

(iii) Environmental Considerations in Urban Development Projects (iv) Review of IEE and Integration into Design

(v) Improved Co-ordination within Nodal Departments (vi) Special issues in NERCCDIP

(vii) Role during construction

(viii) Monitoring & Reporting System

155. The proposed training program along with the frequency of sessions is presented in Table

D. Environmental Budget

156. As part of good engineering practices in the project, there have been several measures as erosion prevention, rehabilitation of borrow areas, safety, signage, provision of temporary drains, etc the costs for which are included in the design costs of specific subprojects. Therefore, these items of costs have not been included in the IEE budget. Only those items not covered under budgets for construction and RAP are costed in the IEE budget. The IEE costs include mitigation, monitoring and capacity buildings costs. The summary budget for the environmental management costs of the water supply subprojects in Agartala, Aizawl, and Kohima is presented in Table 8.
