Environmental Impact Assessment Project Report for Proposed Construction of Water and Sanitation Structures in Bangale, Tana North Sub-County, Tana River County
The project proponent SMEA aims to improve access to clean water and sanitation among the residence of Tana North Sub-county and its environs by rehabilitating existing dams, and building water cisterns in designated points near villages. This is a noble course that when completed successfully, will alleviate perennial water problem in the region and improve sanitation among the community members for sustainable development. However, Kenya government, through NEMA recognizes that such projects may have certain negative impacts to the community and environment in general. This is why NEMA demands that an EIA is conducted before such projects are implemented. The main objective of this exercise was to assess the biophysical, socio-economical and human health consequences of the proposed water and sanitation projects both in the construction, operation and maintenance phases.
