3.2IMPROVEMENT PLAN

In this section of the report, in order to ensure conformity of activities, which will be carried out in planning/design, construction and operation stages of the proposed project, with principles and procedures stated in the national environmental legislations, said stages were established and submitted in the following "Improvement Plan".
Table 3.7 Improvement and Prevention Plan in the Construction Stage

Stage	Subject	Measures to be Taken	Responsible Organization	Stakeholders	Relevant Legislation
Construction	Excavation waste	Excavation waste from the excavation work will be used as filling material for road works and as an upper coat material for landfills.	Contractor	Neighborhood Population, NGO's	Regulation for Control of Excavation Soil, Construction and Demolition Waste
	Used pipe waste	Old pipes from replacement of the network will be disposed in Mersin - Çavuşlu landfill.	Contractor	Neighborhood Population, NGO's	Regulation for Control of Excavation Soil, Construction and Demolition Waste (date 18.03.2004, no. RG 25406)
	Historic, cultural and archeological assets	If any asset of historic, cultural or archeological value is found in excavations, Directorate of Provincial Culture and Tourism will be informed and works will stop. No work will continue until agreement and permission to do so is granted by this Directorate. Precautions will be taken for preventing the removal of artifacts by workers.	Contractor	Neighborhood Population, NGO's, Directorate of Provincial Culture	Law of Protection of Cultural and Natural Assets no 2863
	Dust/air pollution	Vehicles carrying material will be covered on the top. Working site will be wetted especially in warm, dry and windy weather.	Contractor	Neighborhood Population, NGO's	Regulation for Control of Air Pollution Caused by Industrial Plants
	Noise pollution	Noise levels of excavation and working machines operation at construction cannot exceed the level stated in the "Regulation for Assessment and Management of Environmental Noise". (Impact noise Lcmax cannot exceed 100 dBC.) Construction activities will be performed between 07.00-19.00 hours. Since the construction will be executed in three separate stages, generation of collective noise will be relatively avoided. In case when the construction activities must continue at night, local population that will be affected will be informed at least one week before the activity date.	Contractor	Neighborhood Population, NGO's	Regulation for Assessment and Management of Environmental Noise / Vibration Regulation

Table 3.8 Improvement and Prevention Plan in the Construction Stage (cont'd)

Stage	Subject	Measures to be Taken	Responsible Organization	Stakeholders	Relevant Legislation
Construction	Exhaust fumes	During construction, each vehicle related with the construction will be checked and inspected with "Motor Vehicle Exhaust Emission Measurement License" to see whether the Exhaust Measurements are made in accordance with the criteria specified by the Ministry of Environment and Forestry	Contractor	Neighborhood Population, NGO's	Regulation for Control of Exhaust Gas Emissions of Vehicles in the Traffic
	Excavation	In order not to damage other infrastructural works, relevant organizations and institutions (water, natural gas, sewerage, communication, transportation) will be informed in written before the start of excavation. Necessary institutional permits will be obtained.	Contractor	Neighborhood Population, NGO's Municipalities Police Directorate	Regulation for Infrastructure Coordination Centers of Greater Municipalities
	Public safety	In order that the project will not create any danger for public safety (particularly to children), entry of people to the construction site should be prevented by placing plastic bands, barriers, phosphorous and illuminated warning signs. Additionally, necessary measures will be taken with relevant institutions to ensure the safe traffic flow.
