PREFACE Hochiminh Cit is the biggest city as well as a key economic, cultural, scientific, technical & political center in the country with 19 urban districts and 5 sub-districts with total natural area of around 2095,01 km2 with the total current population of around 7.5 million persons and 2.5 million visitors and temporary resident with the average density of 4773 persons/km2. HCMC always has had a very important role in the Vietnam economy. Thanks to the favorable natural condition, HCMC is the key traffic junction of Vietnam and South East Asia, including roads, railways, waterways and air. In recent years, HCMC has faced problems of a big metropolitan area with too rapid growth of population. In the urban area, the roads have become too narrow with high frequency of traffic jam, public transport system is inefficient and environment is being pollution due to traffic vehicles, construction site and industrial zones, etc. In addition the most serious matter of the city at the moment is the flood condition and collection of domestic waste. In the recent years, flood condition has often occurred, especially in the high tidal day. The flood condition is caused by different reasons, such as high tide in combination with the increase of coastal water and heavy and sudden rains, infrastructure, especially rainwater collection system, wastewater treatment & solid waste management, which are not priotized for investment and have not meet the urban development, affecting life, health and environment of residents as well as socio-economic development of the city significantly. Regarding HCMC in general and District 2 in particular, the investment in construction of a system for sewage, wastewater collection and treatment is very necessary. However the construction of infrastructure projects with a large amount of capital is extremely difficult . For years, the ODA fund for infrastructure investment has been invested throughout Vietnam including the ODA of World Bank which is dispersed in different localities in the country. With the approval of the Government and Ministries, a drainage and sewage project in the period of 2002-2012 (Project - Phase 1) in Hochiminh is invested by ODA of World Bank. Up to now, the works of the Project in this period has proved the efficiency and improved the environmental condition significantly, contribution to the great benefit for the local residents. The feasible study is prepared in order to propose design for sewage and drainage system in order to increase the service coverage of the project for the area in the Phase II, which have not been archived in the Project - Phase I. The project is the consecutive step to improve the overall environmental in Hochiminh City through the construction of drainage & sewage system of the area in Phase II. This report is the basis for defining the invested volume, total investment fund and effectiveness analysis of the project in terms of finance, socio-economy.

2.2.2. Project conditions and background. a. Sector Drainage & sewage and environmental sanitary are still a very pressing matter in the socioeconomic development in Vietnam causing a lot challenges for the Government and water sector. The wastewater collection for treatment is not satisfied owning to the reasons that the discharge system is used for both wastewater and rainwater. Regarding the institutional and financial terms, Ho Chi Minh City Urban Environment Co., Ltd and Ho Chi Minh City Urban Drainage Company Ltd are not as strong as Saigon Water Supply Company. This is one of the big challenges about the capacity in settling the problems of the urban sanitary. The establishment of loss-profit mechanism in service provision, which is based on the revenue, is very necessary and private sectors can be employed to do some assigned work. Based on the actual conditions, the investment and development of water supply and drainage & sewage systems, especially the wastewater collection and treatment in accordance with the regulations before discharging to the common sewer are still the requirements of the society. In the condition, an orientation for development of water supply and drainage & sewage for urban areas and industrial zones is very essential. In 1999, the Decision No 35/1999/QD-TTg dated March 5, 1999 on National Orientation on drainage development in urban areas by 2020 was signed by the Prime Minister. Regarding the urban drainage & sewage, the Government was very concerned and decided that 20 urban areas were invested with ODA funds and budget to rehabilitate and construct new drainage & sewage and sanitary systems. In addition, policies and mechanisms for drainage & sewage are being renovated, and many drainage companies are also reorganized and are no longer subject to the subsidiary mechanism and switched from stated-own companies to the limited companies with different business lines. Drainage & Sewage facilities are the public works and enterprises operating in the sector shall follow the ordering mechanism with the relevant authorities in order to be more active at work, especially in terms of finance. The Law on Environment no. 52/2005/QH11 of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam passed by the Nation Assembly and effective from 01st July 2006, as a replacement for the Law on Environment in 1993 is very important. Then, the Government issued Decree no. 88/2007/ND-CP dated 28 January 05 , 2007 of the Government on urban and industrial park water drainage. The Decree no. 04/2007NĐ-CP dated 08/1/2007 of the Government on Amending and supplementing a number of articles of the Government's Decree No. 67/2003/NĐ-CP was issued on 13th June 2093 by the Government on environmental protection charges for waste water. Furthermore, on 20th November 2009 the Prime Minister has Decision no. 1930/QĐ-TTg approving orientations for development of water drainage in Vietnamese urban centers and industrial parks up to 2050 According to the orientation for development of water drainage in Vietnamese urban centers and industrial parks up to 2025 and vision to 2050, the drainage & sewage is the public service, which is encouraged by the Government for local and foreign organizations and individuals from different economic sectors to participate in investment, construction and operation of drainage & sewage system in accordance with the legal regulations of Vietnam on investment, construction and operation of drainage & sewage systems. The drainage & sewage system should be constructed synchronously in order to ensure the complete process from collection, transfer and treatment for each area; the common drainage system shall be provided for the urban areas with sewers and separate drainage system shall be provided for industrial zones, high tech zones, processing zones, and new urban areas, small urban areas, which have not been provided with the drainage system;

Page 14

the scattered industrial factories and service facilities having toxic wastewater must have local wastewater before discharge to the common drainage system; the key works must be invested according to the investment phases with suitable technology; the involvement of private sectors for the construction and operation of drainage system shall be implemented; the polluters must pay for the treatment and discharge fee in order to maintain and operate the system as well as return for the investment costs. Regarding the drainage system, the rainwater discharge and flood reduction in the rainy season in the urban areas of grade II are priotized issues for settlement in 2015; the service coverage of the drainage system shall be increase from 50-60% to 70-80%. By 2025, the food shall be eliminated fully in the urban area. Regarding the sewage system, the urban areas from grade IV shall be provided with central domestic wastewater treatment system. The ratio of collected and treated domestic wastewater shall be 70-80% and meet the regulations after treatment. The central or dispersed treatment plants in the residential areas shall operate continuously and the wastewater after treatment shall meet the regulations. According to the vision to 2050, the urban areas from grade IV shall be constructed with a completed drainage & sewage system, including rainfall discharge, wastewater collection and treatment. The wastewater from small urban area (grade 5) and craft villages shall be collected and treated at the central or dispersed wastewater treatment system. The flood must be solved thoroughly and all wastewater must be treatment before discharging to the environment. The proposed solution is to complete the legal system about drainage & sewage. The central cities must prepare and approve the master plan of drainage & sewage systems, define the flow charts of the systems, discharge basins and receiving bodies, define the investors and investment phases. ODA funds shall be priotized for the investment and development of urban drainage & sewage system, especially the large urban areas and urban area affected by the natural disasters. In addition, the investment from local and foreign individuals and organizations shall be moiled for the investment and construction of drainage & sewage system, especially for the wastewater treatment with different types. b. Regions (localities) Strategic policies of HCMC. The policy objectives and orientations of the city for socio-economic development are represented very clearly with the policies for environmental improvement and social infrastructure improvement in order to meet the economic development. To promote industrialization, modernization, mobilize and exploit domestic resources, attract and use effectively the external resources, improve the rate and quality of growth in each sector, business, region or locality in order that the society and economy develop sustainably and strongly. To improve investment in the socio-economic infrastructure, improve quality, effectiveness and capacity of economic integration, to create the improvement in science & technology, education & training, employment opportunities, poverty reduction as well as living standard and strengthen politic stability and national defense & security. Improve public awareness about environmental protection, etc. Orientations for HCMC development plan Based on revision of the master planning of HCMC to 2025 approved in Decision no. 24/QĐ-TTg dated 06/01/2010 by the Prime Minister on the master construction planning of HCMC to 2025, the city shall continue to play an important role in the region as the regional, national and world-wide key economic zone. The construction and sustainable development shall be

Page 15

implemented according to the economic development in combination with preservation of historical heritage, culture and environmental protection. According to the master planning of HCMC to 2020, regarding the surface water discharging system, it is necessary to arrange channel & sewer systems sufficiently to discharge water in the catchment with the controlled hydrological conditions and arrange the regulating lakes at the highland area. The wetlands should be kept as much as possible at the low land areas to retain water. It is necessary to focus on the criteria of green trees and grass in accordance with the regulations and reduce the surface flow, etc. Regarding the sewage system, JICA planning which is approved by the Prime Minister under Decision no. 752/QĐ-TTg dated 19/6/2001 shall be implemented gradually. The new urban areas in District shall be studied and constructed with a collecting system and connection with the city interceptors. c. Development planning. According to the master drainage & sewage planning of HCMC to 2020 approved by the Prime Minister under Decision no. 752/QĐ-TTg dated 19/06/2001; District 2 is a new urban area along the eastern catchment of Sai Gon. At the short term, common sewer shall be constructed. During the urban development, land shall be reserved for construction of separate drainage & sewage system if possible. According to the Project for Revision of HCMC Master planned, approved by the Prime Minister under Decision no. 24/QĐ-TTg dated 6-01-2010: - Regarding the existing city center, the common sewer will be used continuously (for wastewater & rainwater). The dirty wastewater shall be separated from the common sewer by a combined sewer overflow (CSO) and transferred to an interceptor for treatment at the wastewater treatment plan of each catchment. The rainwater shall be discharged directly to channels. Regarding the newly constructed area, it is necessary to construct a separate wastewater collection system and then wastewater shall be transferred to the local wastewater treatment plant or central wastewater treatment plant of the city. The wastewater treatment must meet the requirement as set forth in the Master plan as follows: BOD5 ≤ 50 mg/L in the period to 2020 and BOD5 ≤ 20 mg/L at period from 2020. Other parameters about the wastewater quality after treatment must follow the Regulation (TCVN 72222002) and the temporary treatment station must follow the Standard QCVN 14:2008/ BTNMT. In District 2, there is a central wastewater treatment plan below Phu My Bridge, adjacent to Dong Nai River with area of 40 ha and treatment capacity of 480,000m3/day in the Phase 1 and 830.000 m3/day in the Phase 2 with the main transmission line from Binh Thanh District through Sai Gon River and along Ca Tre Lon Channel, Sai Gon River through Road no. 9 to the central wastewater treatment plant. 2.2.3. Market 1. Regarding the demand for flood control and drainage. HCMC is one of the cities affected significant by the climate change. Over the years, there are changes in rain condition in HCMC as the rainy season comes later and lasts longer with greater intensity. According to statistical data of Southern meteorological station, there was only a heavy rain with the precipitation of 100 mm in 3 hours from 1950 ÷ 2006 in the city. However, there have been from three to four raining times annually with the precipitation higher than 100 mm in 3 hours from 2006 up to now.

Page 16

Besides, changes in tidal level in Sai Gon in the recent years are very warning. According to the hydrological monitoring of the Southern meteorological station, the water level at the highest tide at Phu Van hydrographic station has been increasing in the recent years. According to the monitoring data, the highest tide in Phu An Station on Sai Gon River is 1.55 m, higher than the historical highest tide of 1.54 in 49 years ago. The highest tide was 1.56, 1.57 and 1.58 in 2009, 2010 and 2011, respectively. Now the highest tide is 1.61 in September 2012. HCMC is located at the downstream of Dong Nai River and Van Co River, which is the transition part from the hilly region of South East area. The terrain elevation varies from +30 m e (northern region of Cu Chi, Thu Duc) to +0.5 m elevation (the South of District 7, Nha Be District, Can Gio District, Ho Chi Minh City). The slope is lower from the North East North to the South West West. It is possible to divide the study area into 4 terrains: - The hilly area is located mainly on the north of Cu Chi, North of Thu Duc, Hoc Mon, Tan Binh, Go Vap. The topography of this area is complex, uneven. The ground elevation varies from 2 m ÷ 33m. The highest locations are Long Binh Hill and Long Thanh My Hill (30m). Areas in Hoc Mon, Binh Chanh, Tan Binh, Go Vap is gradually inclining and less even with the elevation from 3.0 ÷ 7.0 m. - The wetland area is located on the West and South West of the city in the surrounding area of Thay Cai – An Ha – Rach Tra Channel. The natural height is rather low 0.3 ÷ 0.4m. The area is also the cross section of different water flows. - The lowland area is located on the south and southeast of Cu Chi, on the East of Hoc Mon, on the South of Thu Duc, Nha Be, on the South of Binh Chanh, District 8 in Ho Chi Minh City and Can Giuoc & Can Duoc in Long An Province. The terrain is relatively low and flat, divided by interlacing network of rivers. The ground elevation varies from 0.3 ÷ 1.0 m, and the average is 0.5 ÷ 0.8 m. Therefore, the area is governed by semi-diurnal regime of rivers and very convenient for using the watercourse for irritation for improvement of land and environment condition. - Coastal area is the southernmost land and adjacent to the sea. The terrain is flat and the average ground elevation is 0.7 ÷ 0.8 m. However, the thick sand dunes along the beach has a relative elevation from 1.5 to 2.5 m. The region is divided by interlacing channel, forming many large and small islands. The impact of the tide here is very strong. The table below shows the distribution of the land area in the study based on the elevation. Table 3.

Risk of flood owning to sea level rise. The terrain in HCMC is low with the elevation less than 2.0 m accounting for 72.03%. The highest water level on the Saigon River at Phu An station is now measured at Phu An hydrological station on the Saigon river in 2008 is 1.55 m which is higher than record tide peak of 1.54 m existed 49 years earlier, in 2009 tide peak reached 1.56 m; in 2010 and 2011 tide peak reached 1.57 m and 1.58 m respectively; the current highest tide peak is 1.61 appeared in September 2012 During hydrographic measure for projects under the planning projects for flood control for Ho Chi Minh City, it is showed that there is a small difference in nature between the water level measured at the hydrographic station and one measured in accordance with the national elevation system VN2000. This difference is about 23 cm (according to the Official Letter no. 497/DDBDVN-CNTD of Mapping & measuring Department of Vietnam, there is a settlement of elevation marks of grade I in HCMC). Thus, the actual high tide (compared to terrain height) is 1.84 m. Thus if the sea level rises from 23 ÷ 27 cm (B2 scenario) to the middle of Century 21th, the entire area with terrain height less than 2.0 m accounting for 72.03% of the total area in City Ho Chi Minh City will be submerged in water From the above analysis, it is seen that HCMC is one of the metropolitan area having risks of being flooded due to heavy rains and high tide, especially in the climate change condition and seawater level rise. The construction of anti-flood and irrigation shall be necessary to meet the socio-economic development of the city. 2. Demand for wastewater collection. The natural area of District 2 in HCMC is 5017.96 ha, inclusive of 11 wards with 51 residential areas – hamlets and 562 residential groups with the total population of 133,015 persons in 2012. According to planning, the pollution of the District 2 will be 650,000 persons in 2020. According to Decision no. 24/QĐ/TTg dated 06/01/2010 by the Prime Minister on the HCMC master construction planning to 2025, wastewater criteria is in accordance with equivalent water supply standards for each type; the penetrated amount into the sewers shall be 10% of the daily flow on average. The total flow of wastewater is 3.15 – 3.2 million m3/day Table 4. Water supply demand and of the city to 2025. Water supply norm ( L/person/day) No .

Thus, District 2 is located in the new urban areas with the demand for water supply of 200 l /person/day, the demand for domestic wastewater is 180 liters / person / day (10% due to nonrevenue water). Therefore, the total amount of domestic wastewater in District 2 is 23,944.5 m 3/day now and 117,000 m3/day in 2025. If the wastewater is not collected and treated but discharged directly to the environment to drainage systems, it shall be a risk for environmental pollution in surrounding areas, especially the water environment, affecting the health of residents.

2.4. Adaptability and orientation of the drainage & sewage planning for urban areas and industrial zones in Vietnam. 2.4.1. Orientation for the drainage & sewage development in urban areas and industrial zones in Vietnam. In the year of 1998, the national program for the fresh water, sanitary of Vietnam was carried out, and it has a very clear and effective results. The number of residents accessing to fresh water and sanitary condition have been improved significantly. Decision no. 1930/QĐ-TTg dated 20/11/2009 by the Prime Minster approving orientations for development of water drainage in Vietnamese urban centers and industrial parks up to 2025 and vision to 2050 with the following contents: - The drainage & sewage is the public service, which is encouraged by the Government for local and foreign organizations and individuals from different economic sectors to participate in investment. - The drainage & sewage system should be constructed synchronously in order to ensure the complete process from collection, transfer and treatment for each basin; the construction of the drainage & sewage systems is the prioritized for the big urban areas (especially the grade I and II), or the tourism centers or urban areas having significant effects on environment. - The scattered industrial factories and service facilities having toxic wastewater must have local wastewater before discharge to the common drainage system. - The key works must be invested according to the investment phases with suitable technology and capacity, the newly constructed and rehabilitated sewers must meet the capacity of the rainwater and wastewater discharge in accordance with the estimated drainage & sewage planning in the long term. - The wastewater treatment technology is selected in accordance with the natural condition, scale, urban features and economic condition. It is advised and encouraged to apply the technology and equipment, which are studied and produced domestically. - Local and foreign private resources for the construction and operation of drainage & sewage system shall be mobilized 2.4.2. The master plan of urban drainage & sewage system of HCMC made by JICA. In 1999, Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) in the close cooperation with the relevant agencies to study and prepare a master plan for urban drainage & sewerage, including

Page 22

flood control and drainage & sewage of Ho Chi Minh city. The master plan has been approved by the Prime Minister in the Decision dated 19.06.2001 752/QD-TTg, hereinafter referred to the JICA planning. The objectives are set forth in the study: - Develop master plan towards 2020 for improvement of urban drainage and sewage systems in Ho Chi Minh City and identification of priority projects. - Conduct a feasible study, which is a priority in the master plan. - Perform technology transfer for personnel of the Government during the study. The master plan is prepared for the development in 20 years in order to meet the population increase and socio-economic condition as estimated in 2020. A package of integrated measures for the urban drainage & sewage system, in which the drainage & sewage system and existing facilities are utilized in order to minimize the investment costs, is proposed.

Figure 3. Zoning area of wastewater discharge basin in accordance with JICA Planning The Study is done in HCMC Central area with the total area 140 km2 of the current urban areas and 510 km2 of the surround areas. According the study, the construction of Dau Tieng works, Tri An works, Thac Mo Works and reservoirs at Sai Gon and Dong Nai river basin shall enhance the safety for the downstream of the two rivers in 20 years until the flood re-occurs. Therefore, a continuous dyke along the two rivers to control flood is not necessary, except for the reclamation to protect a limited urban area. Regarding the drainage & sewage in urban areas, the studied area is divided into 6 drainage areas (North, North East, South East, Central, West, South) based on the condition of terrains, land

Page 23

usage, urbanization, urban drainage system and flood, etc. The measures proposed in the master plan are: -

Channel improvement

-

Reduce the speed of natural basin establishment

-

Drainage Pump System

-

Water retention ponds

-

Drainage Pipe / Channel Development

The channels in the study area with the river basins smaller than 30 km2 were proposed to improve to respond to the flood during last 5 years and ones with the catchment more than 30 km2 shall be improved to respond to the flood in 10 years. The three areas which are applied with the measures to reduce the speed of natural basin establishment (North area and one area in West area) shall be used as the low-lying paddy fields to adjust the flood flow and reduce the magnitude of channel improvements. In isolated lying areas on boundary with of the metropolitan area C, three water-pumping systems have been proposed. For new developments in higher areas like Hoc Mon in the north and Thu Duc and northeast areas (District 2 and District 9), the study also proposed a compulsory regulation on construction of water retention ponds in the developed area. The master plan also includes rehabilitation of the existing combined sewers within the city and usage of a separate drainage system in the newly developed areas. In order to develop the drainage & sewage system, the study area is divided into 9 sub-areas in the master plan. The drainage & sewage system has been developed for 189.78 km2 (30% of the study area) serving 5.77 million of people (78%) in 2020. In the remaining area, the treatment system shall be arranged for every private house or construction works, including a septic tank and anaerobic filter. The JICA planning has been considered a key project in terms of water environmental sanitary (phase 1: Nhieu Loc – Thi Nghe basin), Doi Channel – Te Channel, Hang Bang Channel, Tan Hoa – Lo Gom, Tham Luong – Ben Cat. The scope of the environmental sanitary project – phase 2 includes interceptors and a wastewater treatment plant for Nhieu Loc – Thi Nghe Basin in combination with District 2, and sewers in order to control flood and reduce pollution for 02 basins as provided in the JICA planning. 2.4.3 Conformability with the flood control of HCMC According to the Decision no. 1547/QD/TTg dated 28/10/2008 by the Prime Minister approving the HCMC flood control master plan, the natural area in HCMC is 209,500 ha and adjacent areas, including 3 water control regions, including: - Region I: Includes the entire area on the right bank of Sai Gon – Nha Be River, including the existing central area, in which there are many pressing problems about irrigation and environment in the urban areas, South area of the city and a part of Long An Province (the left bank of Van Co River and Vam Co Dong River), mainly the agricultural land and fallow land – as the key area of the planning. - Region II includes the entire area of cross section of Dong Nai – Sai Gon River, which is the developing area. The drainage could be more favorable as it is possible to arrange anti-flood and irrigation works. - Region III include the entire area on the left bank of Nha Be – Soai Rap river - the open biosphere where the water control facilities are possible to be built with large scales in the future,

Page 24

depending on the situation of rising sea levels and changes in urban development in the south of the city.

Figure 4: Mapping planning about flood control in HCMC The district 2 is in the region II of the HCMC flood control planning – a new urban area in which there are three sub-areas: - Upland area (Giong Ong To Hill): no grading. - Urban areas: mainly stretching along the south of Rach Chiec Channel, including Thao Dien, An Phu, An Khanh, Thu Thiem New Urban Area, Thanh My Loi area and Cat Lai port area: building elevation higher than 2.50 m. - Located in the dyke area is the remaining area on the South with the building elevation higher than 2.00 m 2.4.4. Conformability with the master construction planning of HCMC Summary about the Decision no. 24/QĐ-TTg dated 06/01/2010 by the Prime Minister on the master construction planning of HCMC to 2025

Page 25

The scope of the planning: The entire area is 2,095 km2, including 19 districts and 5 subdistricts. The feature of the planning: It is a special metropolitan area – a key major center of economy, cultural, education & training, science and technology, having an important political role. The planning objectives: the city shall be developed sustainably in combination between economic development and conservation of historical and cultural heritage and environmental protection, national security and defense. Regarding population scale: It is estimated that there will be 10 million residents in the city in the future, in which (70 ÷ 74) percentage of the residents are living in the urban areas. Regarding the infrastructure development: The planning is about the synchronous infrastructure development such as roads, drainage & sewage system, electrical system, information, clean water supply, etc. Regarding the drainage planning - Rehabilitate the drainage system in the existing central area, which is the common sewers for rainwater and wastewater and build the separate drainage & sewage system for the new areas. - Regarding the existing urban area including 3 new districts, i.e. District 7, District 12 District and Binh Tan District and 4 sub-districts, i.e. Cu Chi, Hoc Mon, Binh Chanh and Nha Be district on the right bank of Sai Gon – Nha Be river, the drainage system shall be completed and the sewage system shall be separated with the common sewers, dredging and expanding channels in combination with other measures (temporary construction, increase of road surface level, installation of one-way gates, tidal pumping stations, etc.) shall be used to eliminate flooding situation. - Regarding 3 new districts, i.e. District 2, District 9 and Thu Duc District on the right bank of Sai Gon – Nha Be River, the drainage & sewage system shall be separated with the channel and sewers which are sufficient to discharge water in the catchment with the controlled hydrological conditions and arrange the regulating lakes at the highland area. The wetlands should be kept as much as possible at the low land areas to retain water. It is necessary to focus on the criteria of green trees, grass in accordance with the regulations, and reduce the surface flow, etc. - Regarding Can Gio District on the left of Nha Be – Soai Rap River: the entire channel system shall be kept and green tree area shall be developed more in order to increase the regulating capacity. It is not necessary to construct big discharging works (only arranging the sewers for small residential areas) - Ensure corridor for the protection boundary of rivers and channels in accordance with the regulations on the waterway management. Regarding wastewater management. - The wastewater criteria are in accordance with equivalent water supply standards for each type; the penetrated amount into the sewers shall be 10% of the daily flow on average. The total flow of wastewater is 3.15 – 3.2 million m3/day, in which the industrial wastewater shall be 0.32 – 035 million m3/day. - The existing common sewers for the city center in combination with combined sewer overflow (CSO) and interceptors to separate and collect wastewater) are used and the separate drainage & sewage system shall be used for the new urban area; the area located in the basin is the inner city and new urban areas with highly density of population (≥ 200 persons/ha). The remaining areas with low population density ( 1.5 m (basin 6), it is necessary to implement the rehabilitation and investment in the additional drainage system

Page 53

on roads to ensure the quick discharge and investment in a gate for discharging to rivers (being affected by tide or flood). - Regarding the new residential areas which are not invested for development, the urban drainage is associated with the embankment above the tidal level and flood level (it is necessary to analyze soil characteristics for construction of drainage system); the embankment ≥2.0 m and investment in a completed infrastructure system shall be implemented in the residential areas during the project implementation in accordance with the approved planning’s of 1/500. - In a long term, it is possible to construct rainwater pumping stations to increase the flood control cycle to 15 – 20 years. - Install tidal gates at the outlets in order to prevent the water flowing back to the sewer due to the high tide. 3. Zoning of drainage basins The expanded drainage system shall focus on the partially developed area in District 2 which is not provided with good drainage service. Based on the natural condition and reference to the master plan of the studied area, the studied area is divided into key sub-basin with the detailed information listed in the following tables. The main basins are divided into 340 sub-basins and put into the hydraulic calculation models. Basin 1: On the north of Hanoi Highway (Thao Dien Ward and a part of An Ph).

Figure 13. Map of basins no. 7 and 8 4. Hydraulic Calculation for scale identification for works The hydraulic calculation is done based on the drainage route identification. Discharge basins are defined to specify the discharge area which is covered by the sewer. The principle for route identification and basin division is based on the actual discharge direction and different cells, which are divided from a basin. From the cells, it is possible to calculate the discharge area and select the coefficient of coverage, etc. In the feasibility report, the preliminary calculation shall be made for the new construction and presented in the statement for the basic design. Calculate the drainage flow in accordance with the formula: Q = q  F (l/s) In which: Q: Calculated rainwater flow (l/s) q: Calculated Rainfall intensity (l/s) : Coefficient of coverage F: Calculated water collection area (ha) q is determined based on the climate parameters at HCMC monitoring station as follows: q=((20+b)^n*q20*(1+C*lgP))/(T+b)^n

(Formula of Tran Viet Lien)

In which: b: Correction parameter, b=12.09 n: Index of decreasing intensity over time t, n=0.8996 T: Raining time. The calculated time T (second) is defined in accordance with the formula: T = to + t1 + t2 (2) In which: to: time for water running to ditches on road

Page 60

t1: time for water running to ditches through collection chamber (if the collection chamber is not provided in the sub-area). t2: time for water running inside sewers to the calculated section. C: Coefficient about the typical feature of each area, C=0.2139 q20: Rain intensity, corresponding to a rain in 20 minutes, q20= 224.7 P: Rain frequency, cycle of a repeated rain (overflow cycle). With the features of Ho Chi Minh and economic conditions, choose P = 2 years for calculation of sewers with grade 2 and 3. Choose P = 5 years for calculating the channel with grade 1. Hydraulic calculation for drainage network (Manning formula): Q  A xV (m 3 /s) V

1 2/3 1/2 R x S (m/s) n

In which: Q - calculated flow(m3/s) A - cross-section area of the flow (m2) V - average flow velocity (m/s) n - roughness coefficient, depending on the nature of river bed surface R - Hydraulic radius (m) S - Hydraulic gradient(m/m) 5. Scale of items in drainage works The proposed items are based on the hydraulic calculation results, site survey results about the existing condition of drainage in District, actual condition of localities and comments & requirements of the Employer:

Page 68

5. Development orientation of sewage system in District 2. The sewage system includes the sewer network and wastewater treatment plant. a. Industrial wastewater: - The industrial wastewater is collected to the sewer into the local treatment plant in industrial zones. - The industrial wastewater after treatment must comply with QCVN 40:2011/BTNMT before discharging to the environment. b. Wastewater from residential areas: - The sewer system collecting wastewater from residential areas: + The main sewer route shall transfer the wastewater to the transition pumping station and to the central wastewater treatment plant of the city. + The branch sewer route is a separate sewer. The sewer shall collect wastewater from the discharging sources to the wastewater collection point. - Orientation for domestic wastewater treatment: + Step 1 (serving for the period prior to 2020): The residential projects having wastewater flow Q ≥ 1000 m3/day must construct local wastewater treatment plant. The wastewater after treatment must meet TCVN 7222- 2002 (for permanent wastewater treatment plants) and QCVN 14:2008/ BTNMT (for temporary treatment plants) before discharging to the environment. The project having wastewater amount Q ≤ 1.000 m 3/day, the wastewater shall be transported to a collection point (regulation tank) for easier checking wastewater quality and connection with the main sewer. + Step 2 (after 2020): In the future (after 20 years, the operation time of local treatment plant shall be expired), the central wastewater treatment plant of city will be completed and operated. Then the wastewater of the planned area (from the collecting point or local temporary treatment plant) shall be conveyed to the main sewer route of the city and to the central wastewater treatment plant of the city. c. Local treatment system: Regarding new residential areas, the sewage system shall be invested by the project investor. In order to meet regulations on environmental sanitary, the wastewater shall be collected to local treatment plant and shall meet Class B in accordance TCVN 5945-1995 before discharging to the environment. After the interceptor and Nhieu Loc – Thi Nghe wastewater treatment plant are completed, the local treatment plant shall be rehabilitated to wastewater pumping station and transported wastewater to the main sewer of the city and to Nhieu Loc – Thi Nghe WTP. Regarding industrial zones, the wastewater shall be treated in at the local WTPs invested by project investors. The wastewater after treatment must meet Class B in accordance with TCVN 5945-1995 before discharging the environment. The areas having new residential areas are: - Thu Thiem Residential Area, - Residential Area of An Phu Ward, along Luong Dinh Cua Street, - Sport – Residential area of An Phu Ward, on the East of Dong Van Cong Street, - Residential Area of Thanh My Loi Ward (on the West of Dong Van Cong Street), - Thanh My Loi – Cat Lai Residential Area (on the South of the Ring Road no. 2) d. Central WTPs:

Page 69

In accordance with the Revised Master Plan of District 2, the sewage system is separated. The wastewater is collected and transported to Nhieu Loc – Thi Nghe WTP. 6. Wastewater Discharging Basins The wastewater discharging basins are divided similar to the rainwater discharge basins. Regarding the wastewater discharge of the study area, it is possible to classify into 3 types: - Basins for existing area. - Basins for new urban areas. - Basins for wastewater discharge in the future. The following criteria are used to define areas which are suitable to construct a wastewater discharge system, i.e.: - The areas cannot be applied with in-situ treatment methods. - The areas have completed transport infrastructures. - The industrial, commercial and administrative areas. - The planned areas have growth rate of population density at medium and high level (> 150 persons / ha), located in the designed areas. 7. Hydraulic Calculation The hydraulic calculation is done based on the drainage route identification. Discharge basins are defined to specify the discharge area which is covered by the sewer. The principle for route identification and basin division is based on the actual discharge direction and different cells, which are divided from a basin. From the cells, it is possible to calculate the discharge area and select the coefficient of coverage, etc. In the feasibility report, the preliminary calculation shall be made for the new construction and presented in the statement for the basic design. Calculate the drainage flow in accordance with Manning formula: Q  A xV (m 3 /s) V

1 2/3 1/2 R x S (m/s) n

In which: Q - calculated flow(m3/s) A - cross-section area of the flow (m2) V - average flow velocity (m/s) n - roughness coefficient, depending on the nature of river bed surface R - Hydraulic radius (m) S - hydraulic gradient(m/m) Pipes connected in accordance with water-level measure Coefficient of non-regulation Kng max: Kng-max=1.2 Coefficient Kh-max = 1.8 Calculated slope imin=1/D(mm) in accordance with TCVN:7957-2008 8.

In a next phase when Nhieu Loc – Thi Nghe WTP is completed, the wastewater shall be conveyed by the pipeline Ø1200 on the East Ring Road. b. Pipeline network with grade 3. Zoning for investment of sewer network with grade 3: As district 2 is a new urban area of the city in the developing process, including both existing and new residential area with many projects for new residential area development. The existing common system should be rehabilitated. The investment in a separated system will require a huge investment. In order to implement the project effectively, it is necessary to define the areas for investment, clarify the responsibilities of the developers in the residential areas and of state budget in association with World Bank funds for rehabilitation of existing residential areas. The zoning for investment shall be made according to the existing condition of residential areas and planning orientation for land use and topography. The areas to be invested with the pipeline network with grade 3 coincides with the proposed areas for investment with the drainage system. The proposed areas for investment by funds of World Bank and State Budget are: - Basin 1: On the north of Hanoi Highway - Basin 2: basin along Tran Nao Street - Basin 6: the existing area on the East of Dong Van Cong Street (Inter-provincial Road 25B). Water pumping station: The water pumping stations are constructed to reduce the depth of pipeline installation and pressure increase to convey water to the WTP. It is estimated to invest in 3 pumping stations. Station 1is located in Nguyen Van Huong Street and junction at Sai Gon Bridge in Thao Dien Ward. Station 2 is located in Nguyen Thi Dinh Street and Nguyen Duy Trinh Street in Binh Trung Dong Ward. Station 2 is looted in East Ring Road and in Nguyen Thi Dinh Street. Regarding location of the pumping stations: - Select relatively independent positions in the area - Put in the position between road and discharging sources - Install underground to reduce pollution and create good view for the city. 9.

4.2. Capital sources. 4.2.1. Capital sources Investment capital for the project is executed by two different sources: ODA capital funded by the World Bank and counterpart fund of the city’s People Committee. ODA funded by the World Bank shall be used for construction and equipment installation. Counterpart fund of the city’s People's Committee shall be used for investment preparation, site clearance and compensation and all kinds of tax. Accordingly, the rate of investment capital out of total investment is shown in Table 2.

Page 89

The allocation of aforesaid investment rate shows that works of construction and installation, procurement of equipment shall be under the World Bank's ODA, the counterpart fund of the city People's Committee shall be for the investment preparation, site clearance and compensation. Particularly, VAT which shall be incorporated in domestic capital is appropriate because according to the Circular No. 41/2002/TT-BTC dated 03May, 2002 of the Ministry of Finance, the preferential ODA funded project Owner allocated by the State budget will be refunded the VAT paid for purchasing goods. On the other hand, the ODA funded project Owner who is approved to be allocated with counterpart fund by the competent authorities will be made in the form of revenues and expenditures including VAT. Thus, the category "VAT" allocated in the domestic capital is suitable. 4.2.2. Plan for capital source allocation Table: .... Allocation of capital to be used No

4.3. Financial mechanism 4.3.1. Financial mechanism of World Bank for Vietnam Loan currency: USD Interest rate for Vietnam borrowing: 0% Loan period: 10 years (starting calculation from handover date) 4.3.2. Financial mechanism of Vietnam for the project Owner According to the current regulations of the Government of Vietnam, the welfare service projects such as construction of infrastructure for drainage and waste water treatment system shall be carried out under the policy of complete assignment to the project owner (circular no. 108/2003/TT-BTC dated 7 November, 2003 of the Ministry of Finance (MOF)). The State Bank of Vietnam (SBV) on behalf of the Government of Vietnam will borrow the preferential credit loans of the World Bank and consider that it is the government budget to be allocated for. The World Bank loan shall be balanced and paid by the Government (represented by the MOF) under credit conditions of the World Bank 4.3.2.Financial conditions According to the current regulations of the Government of Vietnam, the welfare service projects such as construction of infrastructure for sewage and waste water treatment system shall be carried out under the policy of complete assignment to the project owner (circular no. 108/2003/TT-BTC dated 7 November, 2003 of the Ministry of Finance (MOF)). The State Bank of Vietnam (SBV) on behalf of the Government of Vietnam allocates fund to the project Owner through State Treasury. However, each project will have different financial conditions especially projects for urban areas from grade V or more. These urban areas have difficult economic conditions. Their ability to accumulate capital for the annual debt payment is hard and limited. On the other hand, sewage charge under the provisions of Decree No. 88/2007/ND-CP dated 28 May, 2007 regarding the

Page 91

Urban and Industrial Zone sewage of the Government has clearly stated that the minimum sewage charge is by 10 % of clean water supply. However, due to the high cost of annual operation management and low revenues from sewage charge leading the fact that expense is higher than revenue. Therefore, cost from local budget is taken to support the operation management of the system, this is especially difficult for the poor localities. Therefore, for this project, the Consultant proposes a special financial condition for the project to ensure the work management unit can later afford the cost of annual operation management, detailed as below. In spreadsheet of financial model, the cost of fixed assets depreciation has still been calculated so that the project owner can master the assets as well as depreciation of the work. However, if the calculation is for total fixed asset depreciation, the cost of sewage will be very high, thus only a part of total depreciation incurred by the project is calculated. The question is how many percent out of total depreciation of fixed assets will be calculated, this will be clearly stated in the calculation of sewage charge. 4.4. Calculation of sewage charge 4.4.1. Basis for calculation Alternative for sewage charge collection will be calculated according to price structure for sewage service. Accordingly, the determination of sewage charge is aimed to: recover cost for operation management of the sewage system and there will have a part devoted to construction, major repair of works on the system. The calculation alternative for sewage charge is presented below. Calculation of fixed assets depreciation for sewage works. According to Decision No.206/2003/QD-BTC stating that all fixed assets including fixed assets invested by the State shall be calculated and depreciation shall be calculated on business expenses. Calculated depreciation shall be used for the upgrade and major repairs for work over the life cycle of the project. Also in accordance with this Decision, the calculation time for depreciation of all different fixed assets has relative long variation, accordingly: Plant and equipment:

5-12 year

Storage tank, yard and road: 5-20 year Reinforced housing:

25-50 year

Pipeline, channel:

6-30 year

Therefore, the shorter the depreciation period, the higher the price but it also depend on the actual quality of the work to calculate the depreciation time appropriately. On the other hand, the depreciation period depends on the life cycle of the project. In theory, the project's life cycle is assumed to be shorter than the actual one with aim to calculate factors of finance, material cost, and depreciation according to the most adverse circumstance. Besides, for ODA funded project by the World Bank, the World Bank has guidelines to calculate by of the project life cycle of 20 years. Therefore with this project, 03 kinds of fixed assets are divided and depreciation time is calculated as follows: Construction works (housing, dispatching part covering 20 years the work, work items relating to construction etc.) Work items relating to pipeline, channel etc

20 years

Plant and equipment etc

10 years

Page 92

Therefore, the depreciation is mandatory and must be calculated into the cost of wastewater treatment. However, when calculating depreciation in the cost, the cost of the wastewater treatment will be higher, but in reality, the projects of sewage and wastewater treatment system in Vietnam are not currently profitable and popular. Therefore, people haven’t had a habit of paying sewage charge as calculated cost of the project. Normally payable sewage charge in fact is much lower than theoretical calculations. For example, every year Hanoi has to cover losses of about 20-40% of the total cost of sewage system operation management because sewage charge collection is lower than calculation. Thus, the calculation of depreciation into sewage cost is mandatory. The question is, for the environmental sanitary sewage project in Vietnam, what is appropriate depreciation rate? which can ensure the project will be effective in both economic and financial aspect and the project owner has annual the repair and maintenance of the system but also ensure suitability for the difficult and poor economic conditions of the locality having project. For this project, we will provide the different depreciation rate and proposal for the rate of depreciation of 40% as the option. This is a reasonable rate for a particular urban like Ho Chi Minh City, but this rate also ensure that the project will get profit and economical and financial effectiveness. The other rates will also be calculated and the comparison will be presented in sensitivity analysis Section. If the depreciation rate is higher, the sewage charge will be more. However, the depreciation rate must be large enough so that the project has financial productivity. Therefore, for this project, the depreciation rate of 40% will be correspondent with a relatively high level of sewage charge (average sewage charge is 6000 dong/1m3). As a result, assistance from the Government of Vietnam and state budget for the production activity of the work is very important and consistent with the actual situation of the current sewage charge collection in Vietnam. The cost of operation and maintenance of sewage and wastewater collection system. The determination of sewage and collection charge will affect the projected sewage charge. Specifically in Table 4 (in Appendix). In the table above, we plan to calculate depreciation only with one certain rate. We know that depreciation is mandatory to be calculated in the cost forming price. The question is what rate for depreciation. Because depreciation is calculated with rate of 100% of depreciation value, the price of sewage and waste water collection will be very high. And if the cost is high, sewage charge must be high too to ensure profit for the project. Therefore, in this project we calculate the depreciation rate of 25%. 4.5.3. Determination of sewage charge Price structure for sewage service: Based on price factors of waste water production, maintenance and operation. Based on common principle determining sewage charge mentioned above. Based on Circular no. 17/2005/TT-BXD dated 1November, 2005 of the Ministry of Construction guiding methods of preparation and management of estimated price of urban welfare service. Sewage service structure is described in the table as below: Chemical, material

The above table shows drainage, sewerage charge should not only ensure the cost of management and operation but also satisfy the guaranteed profits, tax payment and depreciation calculation. The cost of operation and maintenance, calculation method of depreciation and depreciation rates have been presented in the sections above. The problem of tax and profit calculated in sewage charge is defined as follows: Sewage charge was calculated at 2012 and started in production and operation of the system. Charge for domestic waste water, small scale production, public and service should be calculated by % rate of average sewage charge. The sewage charge calculated below is average sewage charge to be applied for every discharging objects. As stipulated in the Circular no. 17/2005/TT-BXD dated 01 November, 2005 of the Ministry of Construction, the norm interest rate is chosen by 10% of direct production and general administration cost. As stipulated in the Decree no. 35/2002/ND-CP dated 03/29/2002 of the Government on sectors benefited with investment preferential (subject to List A), income tax for special services such as sewage and wastewater treatment system is taken by 20% of profit before tax. From the basis above, sewage charge is proposed as the table below: No

Therefore, average sewage charge at the moment of 2013-starting year of the project is 6000 VND/1m3. This charge will totally satisfy the cost of operation, maintenance, profit, tax payment and a part of the depreciation to be deducted for the re-investment and major repair of facilities on the sewage system. The table is for defining average sewage charge, however in the project area there are many different discharging objects, the determination of particular sewage charge for each discharging subject is very important especially for domestic waste water discharging object (accounting for the largest proportion), and the basis for determining sewage charge for each discharging object is as follows: The determination of sewage charge for each discharging object is aimed to collect sewage charge easily during the operation. K coefficient is determined based rate between average selling price of clean water and clean water selling price of each different using object. Sewage charge is calculated at the moment when the work is started being put into use in 2012. % rate of waste water discharging object is taken by % rate of clean water using object. No 1 2 3 4

Thus sewage charge for domestic waste water discharging object is the lowest with only 3,900 VNĐ/1 m3 of waste water at the time of 2013 Sewage charge increase schedule.

Page 95

The identification of sewage charge increase schedule is aimed to forecast sewage charge expected in the next year in order to calculate the financial and economic model accurately, and make predictions for project owners as well as discharging objects of sewage charge to be paid in the following years. As mentioned above, sewage charge is a new issue in Vietnam, especially when the sewage charge is rather high (for this project). Therefore, assistance from the Government and the state budget for the maintenance and operation of the sewage system is every important. With depreciation rate of only 40%, but the result shows relatively high sewage charge (4500 dong/1m3). Therefore in the early years of production, it should have support from the state budget and need to gradually increase sewage charge following a certain schedule. Schedule for sewage charge is planned to increase once a year, this is only the plan of the Consultant, in fact sewage charge will be decided to increase depending on the project owners, management agencies of and actual sewage works and actual conditions during the operation as well as the actual economic conditions of the people in the project area. The table of sewage charge increase schedule is presented in the Appendix.

Thus, in case the depreciation rate increases to 60%, the wastewater tariff should be …… vnd/1m3 to ensure the financial requirements. This is a high cost and is not suitable for people of Vietnam in general and people of Ho Chi Minh City in particular. Therefore, we have proposed that

Page 112

it is necessary to have subsidy from the government, the state budget for the operation and maintenance of drainage & sewage systems in Ho Chi Minh City. On the other hand, it is also necessary to have a roadmap for increasing the wastewater discharge tariff according to the actual management & operation. The depreciation rate of 60% should be applicable in the most suitable time in order to re-investment and repair works on the drainage & sewage system. Then the wastewater discharge tariff should increase significantly according to the tables of analysis results. 6.2. Evaluation on the social impacts 6.2.1. Drainage & sewage and environmental sanitary The drainage &sewage and environmental sanitary are necessary to be solved in residential areas in urban areas. Many places in the project are seriously flooded due to the weakness in drainage & sewage system. In addition, environmental pollution is a very urgent matter in localities since there are no wastewater collection and treatment systems. Therefore, the demand for drainage & sewage is very clear and urgent. The households are willingness to be provided with the drainage & sewage provision through the commitment statement and discussion in meetings. So, the people have demand and are willingness to pay for the provided drainage & sewage services. The raised matter is the service quality shall have a decisive role in the demand and payment capacity of the customers. The demand and requirements of the beneficiary are shown in their willingness to connect with the urban drainage & sewage system, their support in construction of drainage & sewage systems for their own benefits. From the need of sewers with grade 3 in subareas, rehabilitation & construction of sewers with grade 1 and grade 2, the project basically meets the demand and requirement of the beneficiaries. The need for improving the environmental sanitary has been met through the collection system and wastewater treatment system, rehabilitation and construction of new sewers in order to fully control the flood in urban areas. 6.2.2. Living condition of residents and economic development: It is possible that the project will improve the living condition significantly through the provision of unavailable services at the moment or available services which are in poor condition as well as health improvement. The health shall be improve as the environmental sanitary shall be improved thanks to construction of drainage system and dredging of the river, separate collection system and wastewater treatment in order to reduce the impacts from diseases generated from wastewater as well as improving the working capacity of people. The leave from work and sickness due to the flood and improper wastewater system shall have negative impact on the poor people and increase the poverty. A clean natural condition shall attract and keep an amount of visitors to the area and change the view of investors. Infrastructure improvement shall promote the local economic development, generating from the demand increase of material and construction workers. The benefit for the poor (male and female) shall create more work for unskilled workers. The programs for improving awareness shall encourage the relationship development between seriously poor people with the public organizations, public infrastructure works and authority agencies of the city as well as promote community sense in poor areas. The public program shall develop and increase skills for public officers and local authority agencies and PCs.

6.2.3. Effect of the project on poverty reduction Urban poor people have to suffer from lack of sanitation services due to living in makeshift homes in the small and long alley with narrow aisles and along the polluted channels. Due to the lack of fresh water, the people have to face the risk of serious diseases in case of environmental conditions with lack of sanitary. The poor are vulnerable to depression and sometimes with life-threatening diseases such as diarrhea, typhoid, cholera, dengue fever and parasites, skin diseases and eye ailments. The disease is strongly implicated in drinking water and drainage conditions. The poor households have to use the unsystematic and unqualified sanitation with clogging, damage and leak, which shall take time and cost for repair but are not satisfied with the usage demand. In addition most of the poor households must earn living by unstable jobs and they cannot go to work because of sickness, or have to spend time and money to repair the sewage system resulting in the income reduction and more severe poverty. The relevant organizations are strengthening with management capacity for effective and sustainable operation & management of the drainage & sewage and wastewater treatment. 6.3. Evaluation on the project feasibility 6.3.1. Technical feasibility: The project shall be applied with the advance and modern technology in accordance with the donors’ requirement as well as strictly follow regulations and standards of Vietnam. Furthermore, criteria and recommend from related project as well as from foreign experts and advices of donors shall be applied and follow in the most effective manner by the Consultant. The wastewater amount of the city shall be collected to the treatment station. The wastewater after treatment shall be discharged to the rivers and channels. Owning to the construction location of the sewers and treatment station, wastewater from a large city area shall be collected. This shall help to increase the stabilities in terms of environment and policy for sustainable development of Vietnam. 6.3.2. Environmental feasibility: Thank to the project implementation, the drainage & sewage and flood control and wastewater collection for households shall be improved. The wastewater quality after treatment at Nhieu Loc – Thi Nghe Treatment Plant shall meet Class A in accordance with TCVN 5945-2002, the highest standard and therefore it shall meet environmental standards of Vietnam. 6.3.3. Financial feasibility: Internal rate of return on the project is 7.59 % higher than the assumed rate of inflation of 6 %. It is necessary to ensure the costs for internal return is higher than the average costs of return at different rates of interest. But when considering about the costs, it is also necessary to consider about development potentials in the project area as well as job creation. Other economic benefits also should be considered including, including the increase of value of assets, health improvement and sickness reduction. Actual expense ratio is much higher than the calculated figures. The drainage fee will help the Operations Centre Flood Control Program in Ho Chi Minh City is the unit receiving and managing the construction of capital projects created to perform the work necessary to serve for extending sewer service to meet the high requirements of our customers.

Page 114

The wastewater discharge tariff shall assist the HCMC Steering Center of the Urban Flood Control Program, who shall take over and mange the works under the project in order to create the fund for implementation of the project, serving the expansion of discharge service coverage in order to meet the higher requirement of customers. 6.4. Risk evaluation 6.4.1. Commercial risks The administrative procedures and procedures for project approval and issuance of decision at different sectors and agencies shall take time and result in the efficiency reduction of the project partially. If the approval of project investment fund is prolonged, the plan and estimates are possible to be drafted again, resulting in the prolonged delay time in the total implementation time later. The changes in the scope of work during the project implementation shall have effects on the progress and usage of resources for project supervision, such as redesign and re-preparation of the bidding documents, etc. The situation shall result in the waste of reserved capital and addition of new investment for the re-design. The acquisition capacity of the organizations and employers regarding a huge amount of knowledge about technique may lead to the delay in the decision making process and approval of design, and then the master schedule shall be affected. The re-organization of the management board in order to meet the standards as set forth for the project should be done quickly. Otherwise, it shall result in the misleading in the overall design and procurement process, causing the delay in the progress. The commercial risks of the project should occur if: - The World Bank does not grant a soft loan for the project implementation; - The PC of HCMC does not provide the counter-part fund for activities to prepare for the investment; - Vietnamese agencies suspend the project implementation due to the insufficient fund. - The Vietnamese agencies suspend the project because the effectiveness of the project fails to meet the customers’ requirements. There are almost no political risks in Vietnam, which is a stable country in terms of polity and sustainable economic development. The relation with the local agencies has a very important role because the situation that the budget for the project is very comparable between the local agencies is very sensitive. Changes about legal regulations, taxes and other charges could lead to the delay and cost increase as the cases of VAT tax increase applied in January 1999.

Changes of law, tax and other fees 6.4.2. Socio-Economic Risk. Economic development is a prerequisite for the development of industry and trade in Ho Chi Minh City, to ensure that households using drainage & sewage service and sanitation have sufficient future income to pay the costs of operation and maintenance. The economic recession shall have negative impacts on the development of industry and business in the town and make the income of the service users lower. After 7 years from the project establishment in 2000, and after the completion of the project prior to 2006, besides the potential concerns in some areas but the main risks were paid attention in order to archive the targets of the Project on time. The connection of the households’ facilities with the sewage system was done with good results as 75% of the households have been connected with the system and the remaining households will be connected at the end of 2013. The public disagreement is insignificant thanks to the great work of IEC section in improving the public awareness about the Project. The resettlement for the affected households in the Wastewater Treatment Plant was done in accordance with the schedule without any important incidents. The land acquisition was done also for the area for extension of the WTP, therefore it is not necessary to perform extra land acquisition. Other risks related to the achievement of the Output and targets in the short term of the Project (regarding the design and construction of drainage & sewage system) as provided below. The Assumptions to identify the “Risks” and recovery measures to minimize or control the concerned risks are shown in the following table.

Page 116

Risk identification and recovery measures in terms of socio-economy Assumption Regarding the development targets: the city guarantee to ensure the good environmental management.

Risks Environmental management plan, proposed by the Project are not implemented by the city during the construction period.

Measures Implementation of the environmental management plan is evaluated in the PostProject Phase with the report on the implementation status for WB and Vietnam Agencies.

Human Resources for management and operation of the wastewater treatment and sanitary company shall continuously developed by HCMC PC and PC of District 2.

Managers or operators are assigned to new positions or change the jobs. No further training and development is carried out in favor of staff. Service quality and management quality is lower.

Training courses for technical staff and office staff are continuously organized during the project implementation and in the future in order to train the new staff. Salary increase and encouragement for staff are very necessary to keep the key staff.

Managers or operators are assigned to new positions or change the jobs. No further training and development is carried out in favor of staff. Service quality and management quality is lower. The improper implementation, illegal connection and discharge of wastewater without treatment to the network, etc shall have negative impacts on the normal operation of the WTP. Pollution treatment for receiving bodies is not implemented. heavy metals such as chromium, cadmium, zinc can concentrate in sludge and spread when being used as a fertilizer

The evaluation and observation can be done in the Post-Project Phase and the report shall be submitted to WB and Vietnam Agencies.

Related to the short term targets Competent staff and mangers that are trained during the implementation shall be kept for a long time and the development of labor force shall be implemented continuously. The authority agencies of HCMC shall implement the environmental management plan and relevant organization, including preliminary treatment of industrial wastewater before connection to the system and compulsory connection regarding the households.

The wastewater regulations (laws) will be introduced and implemented at provincial level. Urban Drainage & Sanitary Company will establish a unit to implement the regulations on wastewater and discharge system as well as impose sanction on the violators. A survey of all businesses and industries in the service area will be carried out to identify all potential sources of hazardous discharge and require

Page 117

Assumption

Risks

The tariff collection from the wastewater discharge shall be used for operation and maintenance of the drainage & sewage system.

The tariff collection is transferred to another agency, resulting in the lower quality of drainage and sewage service.

Compliance with operation The operation and maintenance and maintenance schedule staff do not follow regulations and rules of maintenance and the managers do not check the operation and maintenance staff, resulting in a lower quality.

Measures preliminary treatment or separate sewage system after determine the type of waste. The management systems for finance, plan and budget are designed with the operating organization (UDC HCMC). In the post-project phase, the Consultant may observe the system and report to WB and authority agencies of Vietnam. After the completion of the main works, work warranty shall be done in the new phase (12 months) and UDC HCMC shall operate the works in the Post-project period (12 months). Therefore the Consultant can supervise the operation and maintenance and report to WB and authority agencies of Vietnam on the operation and management problems if occurring.

6.4.3. Institutional risks. The orientation for origination of the operation & management agency for the drainage & sewage system in HCMC shall have a significant effect on the sustainability of the project. If the organizational structure of the PC at district level or provincial level is changed, the project activities from management, operation and maintenance might be affected. The institutional risk is possibly high if the city government applies a tariff lower than the actual costs, resulting in the failure of the management & operation agency in terms of effective operation and maintenance of the water supply system. 6.4.4. Technical risks. The discharging technology regarding the wastewater after preliminary treatment has been approved and accepted in different countries on the world, both developed and developing courtiers, but it is still a new a technology in Vietnam. Owning to the typical features of the technology, septic tank is a very important component in the system and the prerequisite for households to connect with the central discharging system. The working status of septic tanks shall have a decisive impact on the operation of the system. There may be a risk that septic tanks are not built properly and no suction is done regularly, resulting in the lower working efficiency of septic tanks. Then, the sludge overflows to the sewers,

Page 118

causing clogging and damage of the system. In order to limit the risk, the management program for the septic tanks is prepared to ensure the efficient working condition. There is possibly another risk that some households shall connect illegally to the system, resulting in difficulties of management & operation due to the lack of control and increase of nonrevenue discharge. Despite the fact that a series of lagoons is a popular process technology in the world and have been proved that it is an effective treatment technology in the Phase 1. However if the wastewater has a too large amplitude, the effluent shall be affected in terms of quality. Besides, during the operation, the operation of technical workers can also be one of the reasons affecting the effluent quality. The assumptions and risks related to the design and construction supervision are shown in the table below: Risk identification and recovery measures in term of technology

Assumption Related to the Output: HCMC PC, DOC and DPI shall approve the detailed design documents and bidding documents in time.

Managers and technicians are recognized and kept working for the New Urban Drainage and Sanitation Company.

Risk Risk 1: The detailed design of the sewage network and works are not approved by DOC. This risk would result in the delay of bidding document preparation and construction phase.

Measures Action 1: The Consultation, having the key experts can guarantee that the design parameters are in accordance with standards and regulations of Vietnam, actively discuss with local authority agencies from the initial phase of the detail design to promote the good cooperation between parties and ownership of the final design. So the risk during the approval process could be limited.

Risk 2: HCMC PC and DPI do not approval the bidding documents (internal bidding package and domestic bidding package)

Action 2: In cooperation with the Steering Committee of the City and PMU, the Consultant shall prepare a “bidding plan” for approval of HCMC PC before completion of the Design Report. Action 1/2/3: At the beginning, the employees (in both quantity and quality) assigned to work at PMU shall be evaluated and any deficiency shall be reported to

Risk 1: Managers and technicians are not qualified and trained sufficiently, resulting in the lower operation capacity. Risk 2: There are not enough

Page 119

Assumption

Risk qualified candidates designated for initial training and take-over of positions. The proposed salary is not attractive enough to meet the demand for these positions. Risk 3: Managers and staff are transferred or quite the job. In all the three cases, the quality regarding service and management shall be reduced in a long term.

Measures the city steering committee. After completion of construction phase, the Consultant might continue supervision and evaluation during the Post-project phase and has a report with proposal to WB and authority agencies of Vietnam.

6.4.5. Risks regarding customers. A typical feature in Ho Chi Minh City is that there are many ponds, lakes and small streams. People in the city almost have no difficulty in finding positions discharging waste water even if it could cause environmental pollution. On the other hand, some households still use the existing system due to lack of awareness about sanitary and environment, habit and unfamiliarity with payment for discharging wastewater. Septic tanks are managed by the households and costs for suctioning the septic tanks would be paid by the households, therefore the operation of the system shall dependent much on the cooperation and awareness of the users. Education and public awareness improvement should be promoted to minimize these risks.

CONCLUSION AND PROPOSAL 1. Conclusion HCMC Environmental Sanitary Project – Phase 2 shall have benefits for District 2. It shall not only create a fresh living environment for District 2, adjacent area and create a sustainable development based on the synchronous development with the public involvement. The project shall meet the aspirations of the people about a clean environment for living and contribution to creating scenery for urban area and attracting the tourists and investors to HCMC. The project as completion shall meet the demand of residents for drainage & sewage and environmental sanitary services. The project shall not only control basically and thoroughly the flood condition due to heavy rains but also create a fresher environment thanks to the separation of wastewater with rainwater and treatment/ The project shall contribute to solving one of the urgent matters of people and local authority agencies about infrastructure, to promoting socio-economic development and improving the position and role of the national special metropolitan area. The project is in accordance with the revised master plant of HCMC to 2020. The capacity of management and operation regarding drainage & sewage system for Urban Drainage & Sewage Ltd., Co. shall be strengthened through the takeover of the drainage & sewage system. 2. Proposal The project shall be implemented within the framework of the master socio-economic development plan, Therefore the study and implementation of projects regarding technical infrastructure such as water supply , electricity , communication, postage , transportation , environmental sanitation and public services should be cooperated thoroughly. It is the general principle is that infrastructure projects must not adversely affect drainage , wastewater treatment and cooperate with other investment project to save land and construction costs. It should be considered that the progress of drainage & sewage projects is one of the main basis for making progress for other projects on urban infrastructure . The determination of the contents of coordination between investment projects and drainage infrastructure works are necessary to be studied in detail during project implementation. It is proposed to the relevant agencies of the city that a mechanism for land compensation and resettlement of project is developed in consideration about the residents living in the areas having drainage & sewage work, according socio-economic condition of District 2 and in compliance with legal regulations and policies of the Government. It is advised to combine the benefits of drainage & sewage system with the benefits from the added value of land, services and trading & commercial activities to mobilize more investment in order to establish a complete system of transport – urban development in the project area. Due to the large investment in the project, HCMC PC is kindly request to support and facilitate the Employer to implement some necessary procedures for application for OAD loan with soft interest. Regarding the counterpart fund, HCMC PC is kindly requested to make balance and arrange budget for the project implementation. In order to meet the project schedule, HMC PC is advised to direct relevant organizations and department to closely cooperate with the Employer during the project preparation and approve the project for the next step of the project.
