Environmental and Social Management Plan for Biological Corridor 04
The document outlines the management of environmental and social risks for two primary activities in Biological Corridor 04 (BC 4), Bhutan: the restoration of 4.58 hectares of grassland at Pirchen and the construction of a kitchen at the Zarkabla Ecotourism campsite. It establishes a framework for compliance with both Royal Government of Bhutan (RGoB) laws and WWF's Social Safeguards Integrated Policies and Procedures (SIPP), specifying that WWF standards prevail in cases of discrepancy, particularly regarding compensation for non-title land users and community consultation. The plan identifies potential risks such as accidental forest fires, construction waste, and occupational health and safety hazards, providing specific mitigation actions and a monitoring protocol involving field focal persons and the BFL Fund Secretariat. A detailed annex provides comprehensive Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) standards for workers, covering facility design, physical hazards, and accommodation requirements.
