ESS3: Resource Efficiency & Pollution Prevention and Management
- Objectives: To promote the sustainable use of resources (energy, water, raw materials) and avoid/minimize adverse impacts on human health and the environment by minimizing pollution.
- Requirements: Borrower will consider ambient conditions to apply technically and financially feasible resource efficiency and pollution prevention. This includes energy, water, and raw material use.
- Pollution Prevention and Management: Addressing the release of pollutants to the air, water, and land from routine, nonroutine, and accidental circumstances, and with the potential for local, regional, and transboundary impacts (management of air pollution, hazardous waste, chemicals, and pesticides).
- Scope of Application: The text refers to the applicability of these requirements, covering short- and long-lived climate pollutants and hazardous waste generation, with focus on minimizing the dangers with pesticide use.
Definition of Resource Efficiency
- The Borrower implements measures to improve efficient use of energy, water, raw materials.
- Measures integrate cleaner production, conserve resources (materials, energy, and water), and make comparisons to establish relative efficiency levels.
- Good International Industry Practice (GIIP) should be used.
- Benchmarks may refer to energy or water use in certain building types (e.g., per dwelling, inhabitant).
Technical and Financial Feasibility
- Technical Feasibility: Implementing the proposed measures with commercially available skills, equipment, and materials. The assessment involves climate, geography, demography, infrastructure, security, governance, capacity, and operational reliability.
- Financial Feasibility: Evaluating the relative magnitude of the incremental cost of implementing these measures compared to project investment, operating, and maintenance costs and whether this cost could make the project nonviable for the Borrower.
The Environmental, Health, and Safety General Guidelines (EHSGs)
- Technical reference documents with general and industry-specific examples for Good International Industry Practice (GIIP)
- These Guidelines apply when more than one member of the World Bank Group is involved in a project.
- Outline achievable performance levels via existing technology using a site-specific/time-bound target approach
- Host country regulations are used when differing from the EHSGs. Provide justification and demonstrate that alternative performance levels protect human health and the environment.
General EHS Guidelines (Environmental)
- Categories of Environmental concerns include Air Emissions, Energy Conservation, Wastewater, Water Conservation, Water Quality, Hazardous Materials Management, Waste Management, Noise, and Contaminated Land.
- Categories of Community Health and Safety include Community Health, Structural Safety, Project Infrastructure, Life, Fire Safety, Water and Air Quality, and Emergency Response.
Tables
- Table 4: Resource and Energy Consumption (MJ/metric ton of processed crude oil, kWh/metric ton of processed crude oil, m3/metric ton of processed crude oil)
- Table 5: Emission and Waste Generation (m3/metric ton crude oil, CO2, NOx, particulate matter, SOx, VOC).
- Table 1: Air Emissions Levels for Petroleum Refining Facilities (Guideline values from European Commission (mg/Nm3))
- Table 2: Liquid Effluents Levels for Petroleum Refining Facilities (Units: mg/l, S.U., etc)
Categories of Resource Efficiency
- Energy Use
- Water Use
- Raw Materials Use
Water Use
- Measures to improve efficiency, conserve water, and avoid negative impacts on communities, other users, and the environment (reuse of additional water, alternative water sources, water usage and total demand for water).
- Evaluate alternative project locations.
Water Use (cont'd)
- Assessing water use (withdrawals, applications, consumption, losses); consider water depletion; impacts on water quality and quantity in surface and groundwater, and impacts on communities, other users, ecosystem services.
- Mitigation measures to reduce adverse impacts on water quality and availability.
- Address short- and long-term cumulative impacts on communities, other users, ecosystem services, and the environment (e.g., using the appropriate methodology or available industry standards).
Raw Materials Use
- Measures to minimize and/or eliminate raw materials, substitute or promote recycling.
- Applicable measures are often found in environmental guidelines and industry sector guidelines.
- Includes road construction, housing, and industrial developments.
Pollution Prevention and Management
- Avoid release of pollutants (by controlling concentration and mass flows and applying national or EHSG standards), and use the mitigation hierarchy.
- When avoidance is not feasible, reduce the concentration and mass flow of pollutants released considering local, regional, and transboundary impacts.
Pollution Prevention and Management: Assimilative Capacity
- Addresses potential adverse impacts on human health and the environment.
- Considers existing ambient conditions, capacity of the environment, land use, biodiversity, and climate change.
- Includes assessing the capacity to absorb pollutants (e.g., water bodies, soil), considering factors like volume, flow, temperature, associated pollutants, and soil conditions.
Historical Pollution
- Defining historical pollution, tracking responsible party, implementing appropriate remediation measures (recourse considered from responsible parties).
- Conduct health risk assessments, especially when the historical pollution poses significant risk to human health and the environment.
Types of Pollution Prevention and Management
- Management of Air Pollution
- Management of hazardous and non-hazardous waste
- Management of chemicals and hazardous materials
- Management of Pesticides
Management of Air Pollution
- Refers to avoiding pollution from fossil fuel combustion, including NOx, SO2, CO, and PM.
- This can be improved by altering energy efficiency through methods like increasing energy output or modifying processes.
Management of Hazardous Waste
- Hazardous waste definition (EHSG).
- Definition includes various hazardous waste types and characteristics (explosives, flammable liquids/solids, poisonous, toxic, ecotoxic, infectious substances).
Management of Non-Hazardous Waste
- Materials not specifically categorized as hazardous by national laws.
- Includes materials like paper, wood, plastics, glass, metals, chemicals, and e-waste from industrial, electrical, commercial, agricultural, or municipal/residential sources.
- Management of non-hazardous waste often follows a hierarchy (source reduction, reusing, recycling, composting, energy recovery, treatment, and disposal).
Management of Chemicals and Hazardous Materials
- Avoid use of chemicals/hazardous materials banned or restricted internationally.
- Minimize and control hazardous material releases, use, and disposal practices.
Definition of Pesticides
- Pesticide is any substance used to kill, repel or control specific plant or animal life that is considered a pest (e.g., herbicides, insecticides, fungicides).
Restriction on Pesticides
- No pesticide will be used unless it conforms with EHSG.
- The use is restricted for pesticides containing active ingredients prohibited by international conventions, or where appropriate toxicity/carcinogenicity/mutagenicity is a concern.
- Guidance focuses on avoiding pesticides unless for an acceptable purpose with appropriate government exemption for the relevant agencies.
Criteria for Selection of Pesticides
- Selection must consider adverse human health effects, effectiveness against pests, and lack of harmful effects on non-target species.
- Includes consideration of the need for resistance prevention (pesticides and methods/use patterns) and adherence to applicable international standards and codes of conduct.
Requirement for the Use of Pesticides
- Preference is given to integrated pest management (IPM) over pesticide use.
- IPM utilizes approaches that manage pests below economical damage thresholds, integrating multiple methods for pest control rather than relying solely on pesticides.
