The framework supports resilient and sustainable urban service delivery and financial systems, focused on strengthening municipal capacity and upgrading wastewater treatment and drainage networks, including canals and lakes. It applies the World Bank Environmental and Social Framework, defines risk categorization and ESMF use, and notes preparation of related frameworks and sub-project environmental and social impact assessments for early implementation activities.","ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK  \nGUJARAT RESILIENT CITIES PROJECT (GRCP)  \nFebruary 2022  \nPrepared by  \nAHMEDABAD MUNICIPAL CORPORATION  \nAND  \nGUJARAT URBAN DEVELOPMENT MISSION  \nPub lic Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized  \nSummary E-1   \nGUJARAT RESILIENT CITIES PROJECT (GRCP)  \nSUMMARY  \nA. Project Overview  \nThe Government of Gujarat (GoG) has sought assistance from the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD, also commonly known, and referred hereafter, as the “World Bank”) for Gujarat Resilient Cities Project (GRCP) 1. The Project Development Objective of GRCP is to develop resilient and sustainable urban service delivery and financial systems in Ahmedabad. It also aims to support the Gujarat Urban Development Mission (GUDM), a State-level functionary in urban service delivery across the towns and cities of Gujarat to improve their institutional capacities to better plan, manage urban services.  \nThe proposed Project will consist of three main components: Component 1: Strengthening Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation’s (AMC) financial systems and performance  \nComponent 2: Improving urban services in Ahmedabad: by providing comprehensive support to AMC in improving the quality, efficiency, sustainability, and resilience of select urban services – wastewater management services (sewerage only2), storm water drainage (prioritized in terms of significant infrastructure gaps, poor service levels, and negative environmental and social externalities) .  \nComponent 3: Developing institutional systems and capacities at AMC and GUDM for state wide capacity building.  \nThe project will ensure better environmental and health condition in Ahmedabad and the surrounding region, by upgrading the Sewage Treatment Plants (STPs), related infrastructure and networks to treat the sewage generated in the city to stringent standards; improving drainage networks, canals and lakes and ensuring improved service delivery and management systems. The project will benefit from reduced greenhouse gas emissions due to upgraded treatment systems, and reduced pollution loadsin Sabarmati, Khari rivers, canals, lakes and the region, due to stringent standards adopted for treatment of waste water.  \nThe World Bank Environmental and Social Framework is applicable to all projects supported by the Bank through Investment Project Financing (IPF) including GRCP, in order to achieve environmental and social outcomes consistent with the Environmental and Social Standards (ESSs) . Based on this, at this stage, project has been categorised as substantial based on both social and environmental risksand impacts, and an Environmental and Social Management Framework (ESMF) has been prepared for managing the environmental and social risks and impacts of the project and Environmental and Social Impact Assessments have been conducted for the sub-projects which will be implemented during the first two years. The ESMF will be followed also for the rest of the sub-projects and technical assistance under the project. A Cultural Heritage Management Framework, Biodiversity Management Framework, Resettlement Policy Framework and Labour Management Procedures are also being prepared for the Project.  \nB. Environmental and Social Baseline  \nThe sub-projects under GRCP would be implemented in the metropolitan city of Ahmedabad in Gujarat State. The exact locations of many of the specific project investment activities are not known at this stage. The sub-projects would include major civil works such as the construction of Sewage  \n1
