Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Project is located in the hills of West Java,
Indonesia, in the upper catchment of the Cisokan River. The 1040MW pumped storage scheme
will generate electricity during peak daily demand. At a growth rate of 6-7% a year, the
electricity demand in the Java-Bali network is currently being serviced by a growing number of
coal fired power plants, and the growing peak demand is being met by oil fired power plants.
The addition of a pumped storage hydropower scheme to the network will allow cheaper energy
to provide peak load, and create more efficiencies with other power stations.
During generation, water will be discharged from an upper reservoir, through waterways and
turbines, to a lower reservoir, where the water will be stored and pumped back to the upper
reservoir during periods of low energy demand on the network. Once the two reservoirs are
filled, only „top up‟ water is required to account for evaporative losses, and all other water is
continuously discharged downstream of the dam structures. Each reservoir will have an active
storage of 10,000,000m3, which provides approximately 6.5 hours of full generation capacity.
The existing land cover consists predominantly of rice fields, mixed gardens and pine
plantations. There is a 1ha remnant of secondary growth forest along the Cirumamis River, at
the margin of the lower reservoirs. Three endangered mammal species were located in the
remnant secondary growth forest during the 2009 survey; the silvery Javan gibbon, grizzle leaf
monkey and pangolin. All three species have populations in other parts of Java.
The existing water quality in the upper catchment and the main stem of the Cisokan River is
generally average or poor. The rivers still manage to support at least 19 species of fish, and
one species of prawn, some of which are used for food but none are endemic, rare or
threatened. Rivers are used by the community for bathing, washing, fishing, drinking water,

toilet facilities and rice irrigation. The Cihea Irrigation Scheme is located on the Cisokan River
3km downstream of the scheme, and requires 6m3/s during the irrigation season.
The population distribution in and around the project area at present contains a number of small
villages, settlements and farm houses. The people live according to Islamic values and culture
with a mix of subsistence and cash economies. The predominant income is from farming very
small lots of rice or cultivated fruit and vegetables. Approximately 30 – 40% of households are
considered to be at or below the poverty line, compared to 18% nationally. There are no
indigenous people living in the project area (as defined by the OP 4.10).
There will be inundation or occupation of approximately 836 ha of land, which will include
houses, settlements, graves, mosques, productive land, subsistence farms, fish ponds,
plantation forest and other small enterprises. Approximately 2201 households affected by the
project and 733 households require resettlement. .
During construction an influx of up to 1,500 workers into the area is anticipated to affect
traditional village life to those in the host communities that will not be resettled. Common
construction-related issues such as noise, traffic hazards, dust, and disturbances and health
issues from workers are anticipated, however locals will also benefit from jobs and a demand in
local enterprise / services. The process of resettlement and other social impact or
compensation issues will be managed under a Land Acquisition and Resettlement Action Plan
(LARAP).
Discharges of sediment during construction will affect water quality and stream bed pattern.
This will be for the duration of the construction period, and may result in river bed sedimentation
and / or loss of water clarity. Erosion, sediment treatment systems, and controls on works in the
wetted area of the rivers beds and controls on other discharges, will mitigate potential effects as
far as practical.
During inundation, the hydrological regime in the Cirumamis and Cisokan Rivers will be
temporarily affected while water is captured to fill the reservoirs. A minimum flow will be
released from both dams to maintain ecosystems downstream. To minimize any potential
effects on river uses downstream, filling will occur during the rainy season. Based on estimates
of average flow conditions, and taking into account minimum flow releases, the scheme should
take approximately 92 days to fill.
During operation, there should be only minor changes to the hydrological regime downstream of
the two dams, as the pumped storage scheme will not have the capacity to store or attenuate
flows. Outflows will match inflows except for top up water to replace evaporation. There will be
some slight attenuation of flood peaks, and there may be some smoothing of fresh flows during
the dry season. During the low flow periods, a minimum flow of 0.2m3/s will be discharged from
each dam, which may result in the scheme losing storage water until such time as higher inflows
are received.
Downstream river users and land owners are unlikely to be affected by the small changes in
hydrology and water availability, however ongoing consultation about dam operations,
emergency procedures and management of low flows will assist in identifying issues and finding
solutions so that the impacts are minimized.

Within the reservoirs water levels will rise and lower swiftly in response to generation or
pumping. The operating range in the upper reservoir is 19m, and 4.5m in the lower reservoir.
The reservoirs will be unsafe for use by the community, or for commercial ventures such as
aquaculture. People will be prohibited from the reservoirs and designated greenbelt areas
around the margins, to protect their safety. The greenbelts will be restored with local vegetation
to provide habitat for wild animals and will not be available for settlement or leasing for
agricultural purposes.
Changes to erosion and deposition patterns are expected downstream in the Cisokan River
during operation, due to the reduced sediment load. Regular surveys will identify changes to
the river bed and erosion and flood risk and PLN will be responsible for addressing any issues
with downstream land owners and water users.
The remnant secondary forest and the three endangered species are at risk from construction
activities and the changes to the surrounding land uses. Further information is required about
the habitat requirements, range and sustainability of the forest and the populations of
endangered species, and a Biodiversity Managements Plan will be followed to identify the best
management options based on the results of further investigations. The aim of the greenbelt
restoration is to provide additional habitat to this remnant.
Mitigation and management has been proposed in the EIA to address all of these issues,
including a comprehensive Environmental Management for implementation during construction
and operation of the scheme. The LARAP will address the specific social impacts relating to
resettlement and compensation. It is considered that if these actions are implemented then the
adverse effects of the project will be minimized. The measures outlined in the EIA, EMP and
LARAP should ensure that the development could proceed and provide a significant benefit to
the Java-Bali power network.

2 INTRODUCTION
In order to meet growing peaking demands and to significantly improve reliability of the Java-
Bali power system, the state owned power company, PT PLN(Persero), is proposing a 1040MW
pumped storage hydroelectric power scheme in the Upper Cisokan catchment, West Java
Province. The Upper Cisokan scheme will have two reservoirs, each with an active volume of
10,000,000m3. Water will be released through turbines from the upper reservoir to the lower
reservoir, to generate electricity during daily peak load (05-11pm). The stored water from the
lower reservoir will be pumped back up to the upper reservoir during off peak demand, started
after 00.30-09.30 am daily, using energy supply from the base load power plants. In addition,
the proposed project will provide spinning reserves and reactive power, as well as other
auxiliary services to the power system. A pumped storage scheme will allow more flexibility in
the power network, and provide PLN with a cheaper method of meeting daily peak loads and
demand of auxiliary services.
The reservoirs, power station infrastructure, roads and transmission lines will occupy
approximately 836ha of rice fields, mixed agriculture plantations, settlements and plantation
forest.
This EIA report is a consolidation of the baseline studies and the assessment of environmental
and social impacts from a series of earlier EIA documents and additional studies carried out in
2009. The purpose of this report is to satisfy the World Bank Safeguards procedures, in
alignment with Operational Procedure 4.01 Environmental Assessment for a Category A
hydropower project.
The general location of the Upper Cisokan hydropower project in Java is shown in Figure 1.
The site is approximately 150km from Jakarta, in West Java province.

The project is located on the Cisokan River in the range of hills that traverse west to east along
Java, the central and most populous island in the Indonesian archipelago. The Cisokan River
flows generally from south to north as a major tributary of the Citarum River, which flows to the
Java Sea on the north coast of Java. The Citarum River is one of the largest on Java, and
already has a number of hydropower schemes along its length, the nearest to the Upper
Cisokan scheme is the Cirata (downstream, at 1,000MW) and Saguling (neighboring catchment,
at 700MW).
From an energy supply point of view, the site is a perfect location for a large pumped storage
scheme. It is very close to the largest and the most important load centers on Java – Jakarta,
and Bandung, the industrial and population centers of West Java.
The geography of the country, as well as the distribution of population and economic activities,
divides the electricity networks in Indonesia into three distinct parts:
2. Over 20 isolated small power grids with generation capacity ranging from 12MW to
1,500MW on major islands outside of Java and Bali; and
The Java-Bali system is a large and modern power system. PLN has the mandate for providing
electricity in Indonesia. PLN is a vertically integrated power company, generating, transmitting
and distributing most of the electricity in the country. Acting as the single authorized buyer at
the wholesale level, PLN buys electricity from an increasing number of Independent Power
Producers or large industrial plants supplying surplus electricity to the grid.
Indonesia‟s power demand grew at a rapid pace during the last three decades, coinciding with
economic growth. With the economic rebound since the Asian Financial Crisis in the early
2000‟s, electricity consumption resumed growth at a higher pace than the economy. Electricity
consumption has grown, on average, by 6.3% per year (2000 – 2007), during the same period
the installed generation capacity increased on average by 5.2% per year.
While consumption has grown, the gap between the low and peak load has also increased, from
approximately 1,450MW difference in 1990 to 4,043MW in 1996. The difference is anticipated
to increase further, to approximately 8,000MW by 2012.

The expected economic growth is approximately 6% in the medium term. The low electrification
ratio of Indonesia (still among the lowest in the East Asia region) indicates that electricity
consumption is likely to continue growing steadily. Large scale coal fired power plants currently
supply the constant base power demand in the Java-Bali system and PLN has plans to meet the
growing base load with a further 10,000MW of coal fired power generation.
2.4 The Upper Cisokan Scheme and its Function in the Java-Bali Network
The current peak load in the Java-Bali network is being met by combined cycle or oil thermal
power plants. However such fuel supply is not economical due to the high oil price, and
because of the inefficient intermittent operation of the thermal power plants. Therefore, to cope
with the increasing „load gap‟ in an affordable and efficient manner, an adjustable power plant is
required to supply the daily peak demand. The best adjustable power sources are hydropower
plants with large reservoirs, however, due to the social and environmental constraints in Java
(high population density and areas of high biodiversity value), a more effective power supply is a
pumped storage hydropower scheme. These schemes require smaller reservoirs and
catchment areas, and require less construction costs than conventional hydropower schemes.
Furthermore, a pumped storage scheme will provide more reliability than a similar sized run-of-
river scheme, because the water supply should always be available to generate electricity.
The Upper Cisokan scheme will be the first pumped storage generation plant in Indonesia, and
will provide 1,040MW of electricity during peak demand hours. The scheme will require
1,100MW of electricity to pump the water from the lower reservoir back up to the upper reservoir
for storage. The scheme will therefore utilize surplus power generated during the low demand
load periods by thermal power plants, thereby reducing the wear on plant created by changing
the power output on a daily basis. This creates engineering and economic efficiencies in the
Java-Bali grid.

Use as a stand-by generation facility if loss of capacity (due to a planned power plant
outage or an unplanned network system outage) occurs in the network. The scheme
can start operation and achieve its full generation load capacity within a few minutes.
To provide dynamic response capacity by responding correctly about change of power in
the network system.
To assist in regulating the overall system frequency between 49 and 51 Hz, and
regulating the voltage at a constant rating. The scheme will replace Cirata Hydropower
Scheme as the load frequency control power station, which will allow the conventional
hydropower plant to operate with a higher efficiency factor.
To assist in restarting the system if total a collapse occurs in the network.
To reduce the dependence on expensive oil during peak periods, reducing the
generation costs to PLN.
A 75.5m high upper dam located on the Cirumamis River, with a 10km2 catchment and
80ha reservoir surface area at high water level. An operating range between high and
low water level of 19m. The dam will be constructed of roller compacted concrete.
A 98.0m high lower dam located on the Cisokan River, with a 355km2 catchment and a
260ha reservoir surface area at high water level. An operating range between high and
low water level of 4.5m. The dam will be constructed of roller compacted concrete.
1040MW generating capacity, and 1100MW pumping capacity, located in an
underground power station. Tunnels will connect the power station with the reservoirs.
A switchyard and administration buildings will complete the hydropower station campus.
Two transmission lines connecting the Upper Cisokan with the Cibinong-Saguling line to
the north (15.5km and 15.9km)
The facility will generate electricity during the peak demand and will pump the storage
water back up to the upper reservoir by using the base load power at night. The plant will
also provide auxiliary services, such as spinning reserves and reactive power to the
Java-Bali power system.
After inundation, the majority of water within the catchments will be passed through
bottom outlets or spillways, with only „top up‟ water retained in the reservoirs to make up
for evaporative losses.
27km of new road will be constructed to access the construction sites, and 7km of
existing road will be upgraded.
16
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
The existing Gunung Karang Quarry will be used for aggregate and base course
materials.
A short 20kVdistribution line will be installed prior to construction to assist with
construction power needs.
Construction is expected to take up to six years, starting with the access road. The scheme
planned to be operational by 2015.
This consolidated EIA addresses a number of issues required for World Bank financing
appraisal, including the preparation of and EIA and EMP compliant with World Bank O.P 4.01,
identification of key environmental and social risks, and development of workable mitigation
measures during construction and operation of the pumped storage scheme.
Resettlement
There will be inundation or occupation of approximately 836ha of land, which will include
houses, settlements, graves, mosques, productive land, subsistence farms, fish ponds,
plantation forest and other small enterprises.
During peak construction there will be an influx of up to 1,500 workers into the area.
Common construction-related issues such as noise, traffic hazards, dust, and disturbances and
health issues from workers are anticipated.
Biodiversity impacts
Endangered species and 1ha of remnant forest habitat are at risk from construction activities
and the changes to the surrounding land uses.
During construction, discharges of sediment will affect water quality and stream bed pattern,
requiring erosion, sediment treatment systems, and controls on works in the wetted area of the
rivers beds and controls on other discharges.
During inundation, the hydrological regime in the Cirumamis and Cisokan Rivers will be
temporarily affected while water is captured to fill the reservoirs. A minimum flow will be
released from both dams to maintain ecosystems downstream, and filling will occur during the
rainy season.
17
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
During operation, there should be only minor changes to the hydrological regime downstream of
the two dams, as the pumped storage scheme will not have the capacity to store or attenuate
flows. Outflows will match inflows except for top up water to make up for evaporation.
During the low flow periods, a minimum flow of 0.2m3/s will be discharged from each dam, which
may result in the scheme losing storage water until such time as higher inflows are received.
Changes to erosion and deposition patterns are expected downstream in the Cisokan River
during operation, due to the reduced sediment load.
People will be prohibited from the reservoirs and designated greenbelt areas around the
margins, to protect their safety.
The greenbelts will be restored with local vegetation to provide habitat for wild animals and will
not be available for settlement or leasing for agricultural purposes.
Socio-economic benefits
The socio-economic benefits include the provision of cheaper peak load power and other
efficiencies in the Java-Bali network, the construction of a new road and bridges allowing
access to more remote hamlets and villages; and local economic benefits during the

Concurrent with the EIA process is the Land Acquisition and Resettlement Action Plan process.
This process involves conducting a comprehensive census of people‟s livelihoods and assets
and a large amount of consultation with the people that will need to be resettled as part of the
development process. The plan will document how to mitigate and manage any adverse effects
throughout the resettlement process, both at the project site and in the areas where the locals
will be resettled.
The Access Road Construction Environmental Management Plan is also being implemented in
a concurrent process to the EIA process. As the access road will be the first construction
contract that will be let, the management plan has been prepared separate and prior to the
Environmental Management Plan that forms part of this consolidated EIA process. The Access
Road Construction Environmental Management Plan includes alignment sheets that document

Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
The AMDAL process is an integrated and comprehensive assessment of major and significant
impacts likely to result from a proposed project or activity, taking into consideration
environmental (geophysical and biological) and socio and economic aspects.
The development of hydropower electricity generation plants with the following requirements (i)
dam with height more than or equal to 15 meters, (ii) flooded area more than or equal to 200 ha,
and (iii) energy capacity more than or equal to 50 MW require an AMDAL.
Public involvement in the AMDAL process is defined in the Government Regulation (PP) No. 27,
1999 on AMDAL, and is further elaborated in the Decree of the Head of BAPEDAL No 08, 2000
on Public Involvement and Information Disclosure in the AMDAL Process.
Environmental approvals (AMDAL) were issued for the project on 12 April 2007, under the
Environmental Management Act No.23 of 1997. A copy of the approvals is included in
Appendix C. Environmental Approval of Supplementary ANDAL on quarry and access road is
an ongoing process and expected to be approved by December 2010.
22

Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
The World Bank environmental and social safeguards that apply to the project are:
1. Environmental Assessment (OP/BP 4.01)
2. Natural Habitats (OP/BP 4.04)
3. Physical Cultural Resources (OP/BP 4.11)
4. Involuntary Resettlement (OP/BP 4.12)
5. Safety of Dams (OP/BP 4.37)
This consolidated EIA and EMP has compiled several EIA studies and EMP reports into one
document, so that the level of environmental risk and potential impacts are adequately
understood and suitable mitigation measures are contained in one report. Public consultation
and disclosure are essential elements of World Bank environmental assessment policy and the
necessary procedures and documentation for consultation and disclosure are addressed within
the context of this consolidated EIA and accompanying EMP.
The Natural Habitats safeguard seeks to ensure that World Bank-supported infrastructure and
other development projects take into account the conservation of biodiversity, as well as the
numerous environmental services and products which natural habitats provide to human
23
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
society. The policy strictly limits the circumstances under which any Bank-supported project can
damage natural habitats (land and water areas where most of the native plant and animal
species are still present). Specifically, the policy prohibits Bank support for projects that would
lead to the significant loss or degradation of any Critical Natural Habitats, including those that
are legally protected, officially proposed for protection or unprotected but of known high
conservation value. Natural habitats are defined as land and water areas where the
ecosystems' biological communities are formed largely by native plant and animal species, and
human activity has not essentially modified the area's primary ecological functions.
Section 7.6 documents the habitats within the project area, and no critical habitats have been
identified. The project site is located in mountainous area with intensive land use for plantation
forest and the cultivation of rice and other crops. There is one remnant of secondary growth
forest located adjacent to the lower reservoir area, and is home to three endangered species;
the silvery Javan gibbon, pangolin and the grizzle leaf monkey. The habitat will not be flooded,
and it is understood that other populations of these species are found on Java.
The objective of this policy is to avoid, or mitigate, adverse impacts on cultural resources from
development projects that the World Bank finances. Physical cultural resources include movable
or immovable objects, sites, structures, groups of structures, natural features and landscapes
that have archaeological, paleontological, historical, architectural, religious, aesthetic or other
cultural significance.
Section 7.20 documents the sacred graves, rocks and religious sites that have been identified
through recent surveys. There are several physical cultural resources (graves) that to be
potentially inundated. The EMP will take several measures to ensure that no physical cultural
resources will be inundated or destroyed due to the project. Several sites will require relocation
or protection during construction to avoid damage and to allow visitors to access the sites. A
Physical Cultural Resources Management Plan, including a Chance Find Procedure, is included
in the Environmental Management Plan.
The Involuntary Resettlement safeguard applies in those situations involving involuntary taking
of land and involuntary restrictions of access to legally designated parks and protected areas.
The policy aims to avoid involuntary resettlement to the extent feasible, or to minimize and
mitigate its adverse social and economic impacts. It promotes participation of displaced people
in resettlement planning and implementation, and its key economic objective is to assist
displaced persons in their efforts to improve or at least restore their incomes and standards of
living after displacement. The policy prescribes compensation and other resettlement measures
to achieve its objectives and requires that project proponents prepare adequate resettlement
planning instruments prior to Bank appraisal of proposed projects.
A total of 836ha will have to be acquired and at least 2201 households will be affected, based
on the current estimate of land requirements. Section 8 describes the characteristics of the host
communities, including land ownership and vulnerabilities to resettlement. A separate Land
24
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
Acquisition and Resettlement Plan process is underway to ensure that the resettlement and
compensation process meets this safeguard.
The Safety of Dams safeguard requires that experienced and competent professionals design
and supervise construction, and that the borrower adopts and implements dam safety measures
through the project cycle.
Two dams at heights of 98 meters (Lower dam) and 75.5 meters (Upper dam) will be built under
the proposed project. Both dams will be constructed using the roller-compacted concrete (RCC)
method. The dams have been designed to the Japan National Committee on Large Dams
(JAN-COLD) standards. They are both designed to accommodate a 1 in 10,000 year flood over
the spillway, and are designed to the Seismic Zone 4 seismicity rating for the area. A Panel of
Experts on dam safety has been established to review designs and management of
contingencies downstream. A dam safety plan has been prepared.

Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
The Upper Cisokan pumped storage hydropower scheme is located in an upstream basin of the
Cisokan River, one of the major tributaries of the Citarum River, in West Java Province, as
shown in Figure 3, Appendix A. The host regencies are West Bandung and Cianjur.
The Upper Cisokan site was identified as a promising site for a pumped storage hydropower
scheme in 1985. Following feasibility studies in 1993 – 1995, and an environmental impact
assessment in 1998, Indonesia‟s economy was affected along with the wider Asian economic
crisis. The rate of electricity demand stalled and the project did not go ahead. By 2007,
detailed design had been undertaken, an updated environmental impact assessment lodged
with the local authorities and an ANDAL environmental approval granted for the scheme.
The purpose of the pumped storage is to generate power during periods of peak demand.
Power will be generated by releasing water from the upper reservoir through the tunnels and
turbines to the lower reservoir. Water will be stored in the lower reservoir, and then be pumped
from the lower reservoir back up to the upper reservoir when daily demand in the grid is at its
lowest.
This chapter provides the design details, general layout of the key components, relevant details
relating to construction methodologies, management and programming and details on how the
scheme will be operated.
The project will involve the construction of an upper dam and reservoir, a lower dam and
reservoir, head race with surge tanks, penstock and tailrace tunnels, an underground power
station, switchyard, access roads, administration buildings and transmission lines. A local
quarry owned by PLN (Gunung Karang) will be used to source aggregate and base course
materials, and excavated spoil materials from the tunnels and power station will be deposited
and stabilized within the project area.
During construction, the project will include temporary work areas, storage areas penstock
plant, concrete batching plants, an asphalt plant, camps and offices. Infrastructure such as
electricity, fuel, potable water and sanitation will all be provided.
The main features of the scheme are listed in 0 and a general layout plan of the scheme is
shown in Figure 4, Appendix A. Temporary works during construction, including spoil banks,
workers camps and the location of concrete batching plants, are shown in Figure 5, Appendix A.

Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
The layout of the dams and reservoirs are shown in Figure 4, Appendix A, and the temporary
work areas such as camps and concrete batching plants, are shown in Figure 5, Appendix A.
The electricity generation capability will come from the head created between an upper and
lower reservoir. The upper dam will be located on the Cirumamis River, approximately 200m
downstream of the confluence with Cidongke River. The 75.5m high upper dam will create a
14,000,000m3 reservoir with a surface area at full capacity of 80ha.
The lower dam will be located on the Cisokan River, approximately 1km downstream of the
confluence with the Cilengkong River. The dam is approximately 3.5km downstream of the
upper dam, and the reservoir will be fed by the Cisokan and Cilengkong Rivers. The 98m high
lower dam will create a 63,000,000m3 reservoir with a surface area at full capacity of 260ha.
Both reservoirs will have 10,000,000m3 of active storage, which provides enough water for the
generation of 1,040MW of power for a maximum generation time of 6.5 hours. Both reservoirs
are planned to have a greenbelt around the perimeter of 5m vertical height from the high water
level, which will be owned and managed by PLN.
Both dams will be constructed using the roller-compacted concrete (RCC) method. The dams
have been designed to the Japan National Committee on Large Dams (JAN-COLD) standards.
They are both designed to accommodate a 1 in 10,000 year flood over the spillway, and are
designed to the Seismic Zone 4 seismicity rating for the area. Based on the design erosion rate
of 1.86mm/km2/year, the inlets and outlets of both structures should remain operational and
clear of sediment for 50 years.
Temporary river diversions will operate at each dam site during construction, to divert the rivers
around the work areas. Once the dams have been built, and before impounding begins, the
diversions will be closed.
28
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
Pre-construction works for the upper dam will involve first diverting the river to install a small
coffer dam and then excavating large amounts of river bed and bank material before setting
foundations and constructing the RCC structure. An open chute and box culvert will be
constructed to carry the diverted water around the construction site and back into the river
downstream. Rock drills, bulldozers and excavators will be used to excavate the dry river bed
and bank materials.
Pre-construction works for the lower dam on the Cisokan River will involve more preparatory
work due to the size of the river and the remnants of a landslide at the location of the dam. In
the river bed there is a deep deposit (up to 15m) of sand and boulders, and at least the top 6m
is the result of a recent landslide. The material has raised the river bed and is acting like a dam.
This deep deposit of fine material is expected to cause difficulties with excavation to create the
coffer dams and the dam itself. Therefore the engineers are recommending to blast the
boulders prior to the coffer dam works.
Due to the soft bed material, and due to the size of potential flow in the Cisokan River, the
designers have proposed to construct a primary coffer dam made of fill, to allow the construction
of an RCC coffer dam that will form the protective barrier for the construction site. A diversion
tunnel will then be constructed to divert the water downstream during the construction of the
lower dam. The tunnel will be drilled, not blasted, and then lined with concrete.
Dam construction will be 24 hours a day, seven days a week during the placement of RCC.
RCC must be placed continuously to minimize cold joints. The transport of the RCC mix onto
the dam from the concrete batching plant will be done by dump trucks. RCC concrete placing
can continue during rain events up to 5mm/hr intensity.
A concrete plant of 120m3/hr capacity with a 1,600 ton silo is proposed to meet the needs of the
24 hour operation. The plant will have the capacity to process at least 300 tons of cement and
fly ash each workday, and so the silo will have at least 5 days storage. The plant will be
powered by a standalone diesel generator.
A 60m3/hr concrete plant is proposed to supply ordinary concrete mixes for other purposes, with
a 500 ton cement silo required. Concrete mixer trucks of 6m 3 will transport cement to pouring
sites. The location of concrete plant is provided in Figure 5, Appendix A.
Prior to inundation the reservoir areas will require stabilization, vegetation clearance and clean
up of potential pollution sources. Slope stabilization is discussed in Section 5.8.3.
Vegetation clearance will first involve removing trees and other select plants of use or interest
using chainsaws. The undergrowth, crops, shrubs etc will then be cleared using heavy
machinery. The community will have access to any of the materials; the rest of the materials
will be buried and stabilized, or burnt, outside of the inundation area.
Sources of water contamination (pit latrines, fuel storage, workshops, fish ponds) will be
remediated and graves will be relocated.
29
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
A reservoir „greenbelt‟ or riparian management area will be demarcated around the entire
perimeter, to 5m in height above the high water level, at each reservoir. This strip will be
revegetated to achieve three purposes: a barrier to access by the public to the reservoirs,
habitat restoration and erosion control.
Vegetation for restoration will be local species that can provide habitat for local fauna, and
stabilize soils to prevent erosion. Revegetation will begin during the construction phase (to
provide as long a lead in time as possible for establishment) and continue through the
operational phase. A restoration plan will be developed as part of the Biodiversity Management
Plan (a sub-plan of the project Environmental Management Plan).
During generation, water will be conveyed from the upper reservoir through the inlet, headrace
tunnels and penstocks to the turbines in the underground power house. From the powerhouse,
water will be conveyed through tailrace tunnels to the outlet at the lower reservoir. These are
collectively called „waterways‟, along with the surge shafts.
The generating equipment and transformers will be housed underground, along with a control
room, office, warehouse, guard post and parking lot. Access to the powerhouse will be via a
road tunnel. Two other tunnels are necessary for ventilation and cables. These components
are all shown in the General Plan, Figure 4, Appendix A.
The waterways, the underground power house cavern, transformer cavern and the access
tunnels will all be excavated using a combination of blasting, drilling and excavation. Work will
be carried out from the bottom up. Excavated materials will be hauled out of the portals for
disposal at the spoil banks shown on Figure 5, Appendix A. To stabilize rock, grouting and rock
bolts will be used. Following stabilization, shotcrete or concrete will be used to line the tunnels
and caverns. Penstocks will be lined with steel.
A separate concrete plant, of 60m3/hr capacity, will be located as shown on Figure 5, (Appendix
A) to supply concrete to the waterways and power house construction.
The cable termination yard is approximately 4,080m2 at the entrance of the cable tunnel. The
switchyard will be 71,225m2. The above ground administration buildings will include the main
administration building, switchyard control, dam control, workshop and garage, guard houses,
musholla, temporary site offices and a block house. Refer to Figure 4 (Appendix A) for the
location of all plant and buildings.
Vegetation clearance and cut and fill will be required in order to provide a flat area for these
facilities. Excavated materials from other works (ie tunnels and power station excavations) may
be used here as fill.

Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
Two new 500 kV transmission lines will connect the Upper Cisokan Power Station to the Java
Bali Grid of Saguling-Cibinong line in the north (15.5km and 15.9km). The total length of new
transmission line will be 31.4km, and the corridor of „free space‟ will be 34m wide. The tower
foot print and corridor will require approximately 100.3724ha of agriculture land and plantation
forest. The routes are shown in Figure 6, Appendix A.
The location of the connections to the grid have been chosen following detailed modeling of the
Java-Bali network, to maximize the efficiencies and effectiveness of the pumped storage
scheme and the constraints and redundancies in the existing transmission line system.
5.6.1 Design
The transmission infrastructure has been designed to international codes and standards
(PLN/Newjec, 2007d). The following was taken into consideration in the selection of 500 kV
transmission line routes:
82 new towers will be required along the route. The ideal location of each tower has been
determined through ground surveys, based on topography, land use and site access and the
final tower locations will be determined through negotiation with land owners. A footprint of
0.0625ha is required for each tower.
The new lines will be connected to existing lines on the grid at towers at each connection point.
There will be no other electrical infrastructure required.
5.6.2 Construction
Site preparation works for tower construction will include vegetation clearance, leveling and
excavation for foundations. No new roads will be required to reach the tower sites, but track
clearance may be required through mixed forest / plantation areas. All construction equipment
and materials will be transported by a medium sized truck as close to each tower site as
possible. From the road to the tower site, equipment will be transported on motorbikes or
manually by laborers. Foundations and towers will be constructed / erected on site.
Once the towers are erected, the lines will be strung, and grounded. Stringing will be done from
the ground; pilot wires will be used to pull the electrical wires from one tower site to the next.
The construction period is estimated to take 12 – 18 months.
31
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
The proposal is to construct 27km of new road from Cipari Junction to the project site, and
upgrade 7km of the existing road from Gunung Karang quarry to Cipari Junction, as there is
currently no access for heavy vehicles. There will be a number of narrower temporary roads
constructed in and around the project area, to access the dam locations, tunnel portals, work
camp areas, concrete batching plants etc.
The road from Gunung Karang Quarry to the upper and lower dam sites is shown in Figures 3
and 11, Appendix A. The existing road from Gunung Karang Quarry to Cipari Junction at Cipari
Village will be widened and upgraded along the existing alignment, with new asphalt and traffic
safety features. The remainder of the road, from Cipari Village to the upper and lower dam
sites, will be entirely new.
The existing road is well populated, with many buildings within several meters of the existing
road alignment. Of note along the route are three schools and a separate volleyball playing field
for one of the schools. The road is currently used by pedestrians, motorbikes, cars and light
trucks.
The new road minimum alignment width needed for safety and technical requirements based on
the detailed technical design of the road (as little as 20m where gentle slopes allow, but in some
places up to 40m where steep slopes require more). The route was selected based on
topography and existing land uses, to minimize social and environmental disturbances where
possible. The route bypasses different populated areas and mostly avoids rice fields. Six new
single beam bridges will be required along the route, and will be designed in accordance with
the Indonesian road design standards.
The roads have been designed to accommodate the construction transport requirements:
The existing road will be widened and sealed. For the new road, vegetation clearance will be
undertaken by chainsaws. Locals will have access to the materials for firewood and other
purposes. Bulldozers and excavators will then clear undergrowth and topsoil, and undertake
the cut and fill required to form the road. The estimated timeframe is 152 days to clear the
entire route.
Weathered rock from along the route will be used as sub-base. The locations of weathered rock
have not yet been identified and will be done by the contractor. Rock will be ripped and
collected using bulldozers. Dump trucks, bulldozers and rollers will haul, spread and compact
the sub-base. Crusher run material from the quarry will be used as base course, and will be
spread and compacted by graders and rollers.
32
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
The final seal will be asphalt. Asphalt mix produced at the plant located at the quarry will be
transported by dump trucks to the working area. The estimated timeframe is 167 days to seal
the entire route. The road will be maintained throughout the construction period.
Minor roads will be built around the working area, between the access road, concrete plant
yards, dams, tunnel portals and other work areas. Approximately 5,000m of roads will be
created for the upper dam site, and 16,000m length of roads at the lower dam site, using
chainsaws, bulldozers, excavators and rollers. Up to 6,000m of temporary roads will be
required for the waterways construction. These roads will be between six and 10m wide, and
will originate from the new access road.
Blasting may be required to provide access to the left bank of the lower dam. Except for a small
portion of road to the surge tank area, these roads will not be sealed, but will be completed with
compacted weathered rock.
5.8.1 Quarry
The existing Gunung Karang Quarry will be used for aggregate and base course material for
road building and dam building. The quarry was used for the construction of the neighboring
Saguling Dam, and has suitable volume and quality of aggregate for RCC construction. The
estimated total demand for materials from the quarry is 2,710,000 ton or 3.69 million m3
(PLN/Newjec Inc., 2002).
Rock will be blasted and drilled loose from the face and then cleared by bulldozers and
excavators onto dump trucks. Dump trucks will transport the rock a short distance from the
quarry face to the crusher. A dry process crushing plant of 120ton/hr capacity is proposed for
road construction materials, and 150ton/hr capacity for the RCC concrete dam construction
materials. The contractors have been given the option of also running a wet process, which
may be easier to operate in through the rainy season.
Trucks will be used to transport aggregate and base course to the construction sites. RCC dam
building will be continuous, and will need a continuous supply of aggregate. Vehicle
movements are detailed in Section 5.8.7.
A 60ton/hour asphalt plant will also be located at the quarry and will be powered by a
standalone diesel generator.

include cement, fly-ash, asphalt, shotcrete, rockbolts, grout, concrete blocks and wire mesh for
shotcrete.
Topsoil, weathered rock and blasted rock will come primarily from the construction of the dams,
waterways and powerhouse, and will be used where possible as sub and base course materials
and fill. Borrow pits may also be located along the access road route to provide local sub-base
materials for road construction.

Spoil
There is a surplus of excavated materials compared to the fill material required for the project.
Spoil banks for the surplus material have been located as shown in Figure 5, Appendix A. For
stability purposes, the process is to cover soft material with weathered rock and blasted rock.
Spoil banks will then be contoured and finished with topsoil. The land may be replanted with
local vegetation, depending on the location, community / ecosystem needs and engineering
suitability.
Slope stability works are required in two areas of the upper reservoir, prior to inundation. The
locations are A and C, as shown in Figure 7, Appendix A. The standard method will be to cover
the bottom of the slip area with gabions and concrete weights. Gabions will be filled with tunnel
excavation materials. The protection works will generally placed in the zone between high and
low water levels. This is to protect the potential slip area from the effects of rapid water level
changes.
The location of work camps, offices and ancillary work areas are illustrated in Figure 5,
Appendix A.
PLN project office will be built at Ciangkrong Hamlet, Sarinagen Village, Sub-District Cipongkor,
West Bandung District. The building will include offices, accommodation, medical clinic, mess
hall, mosque, and recreational facilities.
For the new access road construction, and as the main contractor‟s base, a new main camp will
be built in the cultivated area at the starting point at Baranangsiang. The area will be 150m by
200m and include offices, staff quarters, stores, mess halls, explosives magazine containers
and labor services.
Upper Dam
The Upper Dam Camp B will be set up close to the upper dam site. The main facilities will be
offices, motor pool workshop, laboratory, carpentry, labor canteen, explosives magazine
containers, stores, engineer‟s quarters and mess hall. The camp will have a diesel generator to
provide electricity.
Lower Dam
At the lower dam, there will be two workers camps, Camp A (Lot 1) and Camp A (Lot 2), a camp
for the contractor‟s office and workshops (Lower Dam Camp B), and a camp for the employer
and engineers (Lower Dam Camp C). The facilities will be similar to those at the Upper Dam.
35
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant

Other accommodation
Temporary accommodation for some workers may be found in local houses in the surrounding
area.
Potable water will be supplied to the camps and the site office. Water from side streams will be
pumped to storage tanks, then treated and reticulated to the buildings. Stream water will also
be taken for making concrete at the batching plants.
Provision will be made for managing solid waste on site. Waste will be removed for disposal at
a municipal landfill. Sewerage systems will be installed at each camp, to treat effluent prior to
disposal through septic tanks.
Electricity will be supplied to the main construction areas, switchyard and camps by a 20kV pole
line from the Cianjur substation, and will be backed up at key locations by standby diesel
generators. This new 20kV line will be installed as part of the project, and the 30km route is
shown in Figure 8, Appendix A. The route will follow roads where possible, but tracks may need
to be cleared some cases to allow installation of the poles. The concrete poles will be 9 – 15m
high, and maximum spans of up to 60m. Poles may also be used for communication cables and
lighting.
The crushing plant and asphalt plant at the quarry will be operated by diesel generators. Other
standby generators will be provided around the construction work sites. For underground
powerhouse work, eight sets of 500kVA diesel generators will be used during construction and
commissioning.
Electricity at the Base camp will be provided by generators or the existing PLN network.
There is a large seaport named Tanjung Priok at Jakarta, on the Java Sea coast. The
engineers have marked a preferred route for heavy machinery, mechanical equipment,
materials and other heavy equipment by contractors from Tanjung Priok to the project site that
will limit the amount of winding or steep roads and provide good clearance (PLN/Newjec Inc.,
2002). This route was used for the Saguling and Cirata hydropower projects during construction
and the total distance is approximately 250km.
All transportation, including quarry materials from Gunung Karang Quarry, will use the new
access road from Cipari Junction. The most frequent vehicle movements will be from the quarry
to the dam sites, during the RCC dam construction period; estimated at 16 movements per hour
for 12 hours a day.

PLN/Newjec Inc. (2007d) estimates a construction time of 3.5 years for the main works,
preceded by 2.5 years of work to construct the access road and undertake the land acquisition
processes.
5.8.9 Workforce
An estimate of the total workforce required over the construction period is 1,500, including
skilled and unskilled workers. The policy is to employ local people in positions that match their
skill sets. Approximately 60% of the workforce is estimated to be unskilled laborers.
Accommodation, meals and basic services will be provided at the work camps for the workforce.

The inundation process will begin once the dams are fully constructed, slopes stabilized and the
reservoirs have been cleared of vegetation and contamination sources. The diversion structure
in the upper reservoir will be removed and the diversion tunnel at the lower dam will be
permanently closed. Water will then start to fill each of the reservoirs. Inundation will occur
during the rainy season, when river flows should be well above the minimum mean monthly
flows. It is required the Indonesian Large Dam Safety Committee certificate to commence the
impounding
During impounding, continuous downstream water releases will be maintained from both the
upper and lower dam. Discharges from the upper dam to the Cirumamis River, immediately

downstream of the dam, will be maintained at a minimum of 0.5m3/s from the bottom outlet.
Discharges from the lower dam to the Cisokan River, immediately downstream of the dam, will
be maintained at a minimum of 7.0m3/s from the bottom outlet for Cihea irrigation scheme.
The water demands and the estimated volume of water available for filling are provided in 0.
The simple water balance is based on average flow conditions (refer to Section 7.11), and does
not include any other losses from the hydrological system other than evaporation from the
reservoirs and the residual flow releases downstream of the lower dam.

(b)
Average daily outflow from scheme is the minimum residual flow from the lower reservoir, which is 7m 3/s. (residual flow from upper
to lower reservoir is not counted as an „outflow from the scheme‟ as it is captured in the lower reservoir).
(c)
Average daily evaporation is based on a rate of 5mm/day, and full reservoir areas of 80ha for the upper reservoir and 260ha for the
lower reservoir. This is conservative, as the surface area of each reservoir will be much less than this while filling, however it also
has very little effect on the calculation of the final number of days required for filling.

Total water demand (f) divided by (d), rounded up to the nearest day.
To take advantage of the larger inflow into the lower reservoir, water will be regularly pumped

Based on the above calculations, it is estimated at average flow that filling will take
approximately 92 days, or three months. The actual time to fill depends on the flow conditions
during the rainy season, and how much additional water is released downstream of the lower
dam to provide „flushing flows‟. Details on the release of flushing flows are provided in Section
5.11.2.

Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
The Upper Cisokan scheme will be used to meet energy demands during peak hours, and will
pump water for storage during off-peak hours.
At full generation, the maximum duration of generation is 6.5 hours. In practice, the power
station will be operated at a rate, and at times, as required throughout the day. Based on the
full pumping rate, the total duration of pumping is 8.5 hours. Pumping is likely to occur
overnight, during the low base load times.
A diurnal pattern of generation and pumping is shown in Figure 9, from modeling of the potential
daily electricity demands in the Java-Bali network in 2012 (PLN/Newjec Inc., 2007d).
Figure 9 Modelled daily power demand for Java-Bali network in 2012, showing the Upper Cisokan
daily generation (output) and pumping cycle
The overall cycle efficiency of the Upper Cisokan Scheme is less than one, with more energy
required to pump water than to produce energy. However, it provides economic efficiency and
other benefits as discussed in Section 2.4.
The upper reservoir operating range is 19m. At the maximum generation rate, the rate of
drawdown will be approximately 3m per hour, or 48mm/min. This rate is considerable and
rapid. At the maximum pumping rate, the rate of filling will be approximately 2.25m/hour. The
lower reservoir operating range is approximately 4.5m. At the maximum generation rate, the
rate of drawdown will be approximately 0.7m/hr.
39
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
Once the two reservoirs have been filled during the initial inundation phase, the pumped storage
scheme will only require a small proportion of the total inflow to maintain the water level required
for generation. The only water that will be retained in the reservoirs will be to compensate for
evaporative losses, estimated at 17,000m3/day (refer 0). The majority of this „top up‟ water is
likely to come from the lower reservoir with the larger catchment. Therefore, the majority of the
inflow from the upstream catchments will be passed downstream by the upper and lower dams,
via the bottom outlets and spillways.
The upper dam‟s adjustable bottom outlet can discharge up to a maximum of 0.96m 3/s, but will
on average discharge at 0.5m3/s. The discharge will flow directly to the Cirumamis River. This
residual flow will reduce during low flow periods (the dry season and dry periods during the rainy
season) to match the reduced inflow into the reservoir. The maximum flow of 0.96m 3/s will be
achieved during the wet season or during high rainfall events. Any flows larger than 0.96m 3/s
will discharge via the spillway during the times of day when the reservoir is at full capacity.
The lower dam‟s adjustable bottom outlet can discharge up to a maximum of 13.0m3/s, but will,
on average, discharge at 7.0m3/s. This flow will reduce during low flow periods (the dry season
and dry periods during the rainy season) to match the reduced inflow into the reservoir. Any
flows larger than 13.0m3/s will discharge via the spillway during the times of day when the
reservoir is at full capacity.
Due to the safety issues around the rapid and unpredictable rise and fall of the water level with
the pumped storage scheme, and the large differences between high and low water levels over
the operational period, it is proposed to manage the reservoirs and greenbelts differently to
those in conventional hydropower schemes.
Once the reservoirs are operational public access to the water for any purpose will not be
allowed, to avoid or minimize the number of drownings or other accidents. There will be no
boating, aquaculture, fishing or other enterprise on or adjacent to the reservoirs.
Security and protection measures will be documented in the Reservoir Management Plan (a
sub-plan of the Operational Environmental Management Plan) and include:
Revegetation of the greenbelt with local species to assist erosion and sediment control,
and to provide forest habitat for wild animals. The greenbelt will be managed by PLN
and the public will not have access.
Routine patrolling of the greenbelt and reservoir by security personnel, and the
evacuation of people.
Warning alarms prior to generation or pumping, to signal the water levels going up or
down in each reservoir.
Signs placed at regular intervals around each reservoir, and at locations such as local
roads and paths, signaling that there is no public access to the reservoir, and that there
is a danger that the water levels can fluctuate without notice.
40
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
Regular education programs (starting during the construction phase) to explain to locals
how the reservoirs will be operated, and what the safety risks are.
Two bridges will be installed across the Cisokan River and lower reservoir, to replace the four
swing bridges that currently provide access across the Cisokan River. The locations of the
bridges are illustrated in Figure 10.
To assist with water quality protection and operational efficiencies, the reservoirs will be
regularly maintained to remove weeds and floating materials that could affect the intake or the
turbines.
The reservoir sedimentation rate was calculated based on the catchment area of lower reservoir
of 355 km2 and the upper reservoir of 10.5 km2, The scheme has been designed for a 50 year
timeframe by anticipating sedimentation rate 1,86 mm/km2/year. The total Lower reservoir
volume is 63 million m3 and the active storage is 10 million m3. After 50 years the sediment
volume will be 33 million m3, it means there will be still 20 million m3 to cover further
sedimentation. For Upper reservoir, total volume is 14 million m3 and the active storage is 10
41
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
million m3. After 50 years the sediment volume will be 1 million m 3, it means there will be still 3
million m3 to cover further sedimentation in the Upper reservoir. These figures show both
reservoir have enough volume to anticipate sedimentation in 50 years timeframe..
Due to the lack of active storage, flood inflows will have a very short residence time in the
reservoir system, and the resulting flood flows will not be significantly attenuated. However, the
possible co-incidence of rapid flood inflows and unit generation (and / or lower dam at full water
capacity) necessitates flood warning safety measures downstream to warn river users on the
Cisokan River.
Warning methods
The key methods for transmitting flood warning to the people in the warning areas will be:
a. to issue warning bulletins by warning car,
b. to broadcast flood warnings by public media, and
c. to inform the people by giving the flood warning by notice board or siren.
Warning sirens will sound automatically after the master station has received water level data
from the lower dam that the reservoir water level is higher than flood water level.
A total of 20 signs warning the public of the risk of sudden river level rise as well as prohibited
access will be provided at publically accessible locations near dams and the Manglid gauging
station and the Cihea weir. Locations will generally be at:
public areas,
infrastructure areas (dam, intake, outlet, etc),
other areas, where the people pass those areas or the area near villages.
Flood controls will be both automatic and manual, and the data will be transferred via radio links
connected to the communications system at the power station.
Community consultation
All downstream river users and communities will need to be educated prior to inundation
regarding the flood warning system, and regularly throughout the life of the scheme.
Once the scheme is operational electricity will be transmitted from the Upper Cisokan power
station along the 500 kV transmission lines one or more of the four substations. There will be
flexibility in terms of where this energy is transmitted, depending on the needs of the system.
Due to the flexibility in the connections, the Upper Cisokan substation will become a key hub
substation in the Java-Bali network.
42
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
During pumping, Upper Cisokan will receive electricity from the same transmission system.
Maintenance and inspections will be conducted periodically on the structural integrity of towers,
and the condition of cables and other equipment. Vegetation clearance will be conducted along
the 100m wide transmission line corridor. Land stability around the towers will also be regularly
inspected.
The 20kV line (proposed for construction purposes) will be maintained to provide a standby
electricity supply to the power station, and to distribute power locally within the scheme campus.

6 ANALYSIS OF ALTERNATIVES
The scheme has been reviewed a number of times from environmental, social, technical and
economic perspectives. This section discusses the alternatives relating to:
Without the pumped storage hydropower scheme providing peak load electricity, the following
scenarios were predicted in the supplementary design study (PLN/Newjec Inc.; 2007d):
Oil-fired plants will cover the total peak power load. Higher costs will be borne by PLN
for power generation at this time.
At minimum load, coal fired power plants would reduce their power slightly to meet the
lower power demand. This leads to a reduction in the efficiency of the output.
The Cirata hydropower plant would continue to operate as the load frequency control
power plant, at a 65% efficiency load factor rather than 100% efficiency.
The ability to meet peak demand requires a reliable supply that can respond rapidly to demand
fluctuations. This is best met by hydropower, because it can store energy (unlike wind), it can
respond rapidly to load fluctuations (unlike coal) and is more economical than oil, diesel or gas.
The Detailed Design study (PLN/Newjec Inc., 2002) dismissed conventional hydropower as an
alternative to the pumped storage scheme because of the difficulties of finding a large enough
site for the reservoir within the Java-Bali system, without the additional constraints of social and
environmental impacts.
An alternative location to the upper dam was considered in the feasibility study of 1995, which
involved a smaller reservoir footprint. The purpose was to minimize the number of households
and cultivated land that would be flooded. The method was to relocate the dam upstream to the
confluence of the Cipateungteung and Citapos Rivers, and excavate up to 15 million cubic
meters of hill side within the reservoir footprint. The result would be a deeper, steep-sided
reservoir. The alternative was not considered viable due to the high extra cost, the risks from
the steep slopes, and the additional work required to remove and stabilize the large volume of
excavated rock.
An alternative configuration was proposed for the lower reservoir to reduce sedimentation. The
alternative included a second dam within the lower reservoir, and the operation of a permanent
44

Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
diversion tunnel which could transport the sediment load from the upstream catchment to
downstream of the dam. The added benefit would be to reduce the reservoir area by 50 ha, and
lower the reservoir height by 9m. This alternative was more costly, and therefore not
recommended by the engineering designers.
Three alternative access routes were evaluated during detailed design, and summarized in 0.
A review of suitable material sources for the concrete aggregate was undertaken during detailed
design. From the three main rock types available in the area, lava, andesite and limestone, only
lava and andesite were considered suitable. Limestone was found to be too scattered across
the area. Using maps and drilling data, the following investigations and selections were carried
out.

Four alternative routes were investigated in the supplementary design study (PLN/Newjec,
2007d). The purpose was to consider how the proposed construction of 10,000MW of coal fired
power plants will alter the distribution needs of the Java-Bali network. The four options were:
1. Original from Detailed Design report (PLN/Newjec Inc., 2002) – Four single circuit
connections from Cisokan to Saguling, Cibinong, Depok and Tasikmalaya
2. Alternative 1 – Double connections each with Cibinong and Saguling lines to the north.
3. Alternative 2 – A single connection with Cibinong and Saguling lines to the north.
4. Alternative 3 – A double radial connection with Saguling only.
The Alternative 1 connection design was considered the best in terms of stability of supply for
the Java-Bali network. The decisions were based on reviewing issues and costs with the
number of lines, upgrades to substations, maintenance, and on reviewing the reliability of supply
and risks of black outs if a line or substation was taken out of operation for maintenance or
during an emergency.
In late 2007, a supplementary EIA (PLN/Newjec Inc., 2007e) confirmed the final configuration,
two separate lines north to the Cibinong-Saguling line.

7 ENVIRONMENTAL BASELINE
7.1 Introduction
This chapter provides the interpretation of the baseline data in order to describe the „pre-
scheme‟ environment and identify sensitive environmental receptors other environmental factors
that may be affected by, or affect, the construction or operation of the scheme.
The baseline data from each of the previous EIA studies has been collated into one set of data
and presented in Appendix G. The baseline study area and the locations of environmental
monitoring sites are illustrated in Figure 11, Appendix A.
7.2 Climate
The climate in the project area is tropical and influenced by monsoon weather patterns. There
are two seasons; dry and rainy. While there are two distinct seasons, other weather conditions
throughout the year are more consistent, such as light to moderate winds, warm air
temperatures and high humidity. Key statistics from the baseline data are:
Average monthly wind velocities 2.3 – 6.85m/s (Saguling Dam Control Centre)
Average rain days (dry season) 2 – 15 days/month (Saguling Dam Control Centre)
Average rain days (wet season) 12 – 24 days/month (Saguling Dam Control Centre)
47
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
The project site is located in the Bandung zone, a rolling to steep hilly area ranging from 400m
to 1000m above sea level. The site is part of a series of hill ranges forming the West Java
Southern mountain range, with alluvial plains to the north and the Indonesia Sea to the south.
In the wider landscape, volcanic cones are sporadically located within the ranges and on the
alluvial plains; notably Gunung Pangrango to the north east of the project site.
The Cisokan River flows generally from the south to the north, with upper tributaries draining
steep v-shaped valleys before flowing across the plains to join the Citarum River at the Cirata
Dam. The Citarum River flows to the Java Sea to the north and is one of the largest rivers in
Java. The Cisokan River is one of its major tributaries.
The ranges in the project area consist of Tertiary volcanic and sedimentary rock, with evidence
of geological folding and faulting in a general northeast – southwest direction. Geology in the
hill ranges is predominantly sandstones, shales, breccias and occasional andesite lava. The
general stratigraphy (from young to old) is:
Alluvial sandstone, breccia and limestone, mixed with clay and sand along Cisokan and
Cilengkong river valleys and the main branches. Holocene period.
Volcanic breccia sandstones and andesite lava from the Pliocene period. Outcrops are
found throughout the area, and are moderately weathered.
Breccia and sandstone units. Grey-black sandstone over a lower layer of grey-black
breccia with floating fragments of igneous rock, sandstone, limestone and clay-stone.
Sandstone and siltstone. Lower parts consist of volcanic breccia and andesite
fragments and basalt. The upper layer consists of boulders of yellowish-brown
sandstone within siltstone and claystone.
Brownish yellow limestone, moderately weathered where layers outcrops are exposed.
7.4 Seismicity
Indonesia is located in a very active seismic zone, along the Pacific „ring of fire‟. The project
area is located in Seismic Zone 4, with small to medium seismic risk for building construction
(PLN/Newjec Inc., 2007b). As an example of the frequency and nature of earthquakes in the
area, 62 earthquakes were recorded in the Cianjur Regency in 1992/93, located within 344km of
the project site, and measuring up to 5 on the Richter scale (PT. PLN, 1998).
Slope stability is an issue in the hill ranges of the project area. Landslides are reasonably
common, and result from one or more of the following conditions: loss of dense vegetation
cover, high rainfall events, earthquakes, land modification on the face and at the toe of slips,
deeply weathered rock and topsoil overlaying bedrock and steep slopes.
48
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
Nine landslides between 1990 and 1994 affected the livelihoods (but not the lives) of nearly
1000 people in Cianjur Regency (PT. PLN, 1998). In 2009 a 7.3 earthquake triggered a
landslide in the Regency that killed several people.
Slope stability was investigated in detail in the project area in 2007 to assess the risks of
landslides in the reservoir areas. A number of potential land slip areas have been identified at
the upper reservoir, as shown in Figure 7, Appendix A.
Rock porosity is relevant to predict the potential water losses from the reservoirs to the
groundwater, and the interaction between surface water and ground water. Foundation rock
water tightness has been measured at the dam locations using water pressure tests in test
bores. Porosity in the bedrock is mainly low to very low at the lower and upper dam sites,
except for one sample at the upper dam. Many of the results from the test bores show higher
porosity in the weathered rock near the surface at each dam location.
For administration purposes in the regencies in Java, there are formal village boundaries (as
shown in Figure 3, Appendix A. Within the village boundaries the settlement patterns are a mix
of small hamlets, individual farm houses and strip developments along roads.
Most roads in the project area can be passed by small and medium vehicles, especially the
roads in the sub-district centers and larger village centers. Main roads and roads through larger
centers are asphalt, whereas more remote villages are serviced by stone and earth roads.
Many of the remote hamlets and farm houses can only be accessed by foot tracks and
motorbike tracks only.
49
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
Most main (asphalt) roads are suitable for transportation vehicle and medium weight vehicles
(small truck or minibus). Public transportation facilities available at study area are generally
public cars, and motorcycles (ojeg).
Land uses and habitats were surveyed by ecologists and defined by the human activities and
flora communities. The surveys recorded only the presence of species or human activities, and
did not discuss or evaluate the interconnectedness between habitat and fauna, ecological
niches, human uses of flora or other details.
The following sections separately detail the land uses and habitats at the hydropower project
area and along the transmission line route.
In the hydropower project area the following land use / habitat types are present:
The dominant land use is rice fields, which support the subsistence lifestyles of the communities
that live in the project area. Each habitat type is described below (source of photos: Rahmat,
2009). No karstic ecosystems were located during any of the habitat surveys.
50
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
Domestic Yard
Many of the villages in the hills do not have
traditional yards of rural communities, as
most lived and tended rice fields and crop
plantations so do not have home gardens.
Shrubland
Shrubland is a land that has been cleared by
fire or trees have been harvested. In some
cases the land has been left to regenerate,
and in other cases is being domesticated
with fruit trees. Tree and bush clearance is
generally to open up more cultivated land.
Mixed plantation
Cultivation and plantations within forest
cover. This type of land use is to support
subsistence living, and provide income, and
includes food crops, coffee, banana,
avocado, coconut, bamboo and aren / sugar
palm. This habitat can cover large areas of
hillsides.
51
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant

Plantation forest
Dominated by pine and mahogany. Some grasses and
shrubs have formed a community of plants on the forest floor.
The plantation forest has become default habitat for many
natural forest-dwelling fauna. Pine sap is harvested from
living trees.

Forest
Four surveys of vegetation type have been undertaken since 1995. The most comprehensive
survey was undertaken in 2009 (Rahmat, 2009), which is provided in Appendix F. Locations of
surveys are shown in Figure 11, Appendix A. Based on field observations, a total of 226 plant
species were recorded, from 69 families. The access road location had the largest number of
plant species, at 173, compared to the quarry with the smallest number of species at 86. The
access road has a variety of habitats along the route, whereas the quarry site has been cleared
of forest vegetation for some time (at least since the construction of the Saguling dam) and is
now dominated by grasses and shrubs.
No rare or endangered plants were found during the survey, although salam (Eugenia
polyantha), baros (Magnolia glauca), manglid (Magnolia blumei), and kitambaga (Eugenis
cuprea) are considered locally rare due to land use pressures. The most intact and most
diverse vegetation community is the secondary growth forest in the Cirumamis River location.
7.8 Fauna
Four surveys of fauna have been undertaken since 1995. The most comprehensive survey was
undertaken in 2009 (Rahmat, 2009), which is provided in Appendix F. 0 lists the number of
species identified in each of the areas, from the 2009 flora and fauna study and the 2007
transmission line EIA study (PLN/Newjec Inc., 2007a).
54
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
The surveys were a list of species that were sighted in the field. The surveys did not correlate
fauna results to the land use and habitat types in Section 7.6, nor discuss the population
dynamics, ecological niches or the interrelationships between faunas.
7.8.1 Birds
A total of 70 species were identified through surveys and interviews with locals in hydropower
scheme area in the 2009 study. Ten species are endemic to Java. Along the transmission line
route, 12 species were identified.
Common species across the hydropower scheme area were the cave swiftlet, oriental white
eye, bar-winged prinia, and the Javan munia. The common sandpiper was the only migratory
species noted in the survey. This bird travels to and from the northern hemisphere and Java,
being resident in Java from August to March. Common species along the transmission line
route were rusty-breasted cuckoo, common tailorbird, pacific swallow, Javan munia, common
tailorbirds and white-bellied swiftlet. Diversity and community type were quite different across
the sampling sites, and were generally related to the type and availability of vegetation and
habitat.
The most notable bird was the black-banded barbet, which is a near threatened species on the
IUCN red list. This bird was recorded in the Walet waterfall area in secondary growth forest. In
total, 23 species from the 2007 and 2009 surveys are protected by national and international
legislation, primarily regarding the regulation of international trade, as listed in 0.
Threats to endemic bird species are primarily the dwindling availability of forest habitat, and
poaching for domestication or sale at markets.
7.8.2 Mammals
Mammals are found in a variety of land habitats in the study area. A total of 21 species were
identified in the 2009 study of the hydropower scheme area, from 7 orders and 14 families. Six
species are endemic to Java. The upper and lower reservoir areas still have good secondary
forest habitat that supports a variety of mammals. The most common mammal is the Javan
treeshrew (Tupaia javanica), which is found in a variety of habitats and is not sensitive to human
activity. The rice-field rat is a common pest that feeds on rice. A total of eight mammal species
were identified along the transmission line route.
13 species are protected by national and international legislation, and three of them are listed by
IUCN as endangered, near threatened or vulnerable. The species are listed in 0. Of note are
the Javan gibbon and the grizzled leaf monkey, both of which are endemic and endangered
according to the IUCN red list. These populations are located in the remnant secondary forest
near the Walet waterfall. The pangolin, another endangered mammal, is reported by locals to
also be in the hydropower and transmission line area, but no sightings were made of the animal
during the survey. The impact assessment of those species and other aspects have been
discussed with Environmental Commission attended by relevant experts during the presentation
of AMDAL (Indonesian terms of EIA) in 2006 and 2007. With the appropriate mitigation to be
55
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
conducted by the project, the Environmental Commission has been approved the mentioned
AMDAL on April 2007 (see 3.1.3).
Figure 12 Javan gibbon, secondary forest location Cirumamis River (Rahmat, 2009)
Threats to mammals are primarily the dwindling availability of forest habitat, hunting for pest
control, and poaching for sale at markets.
7.8.3 Herpetofauna
In general, reptiles and amphibians are found in riparian habitat types. The river environments
are particularly important for amphibians, where they spend most of their life. A total of 18
reptile species (10 families) and 6 amphibian species (3 families) were identified in the 2009
study.
The reptile genera include a gecko, skinks, lizards, a monitor, snakes, pythons, cobras and a
turtle. The amphibian genera include toads and frogs. The largest number of reptiles were
found in the upper reservoir area (15 species), and the lowest in the quarry (5 species). This is
likely to reflect the lack of riparian habitat in the quarry area. Common species found in the
survey were the many-lined sun skink (Mabuya multifasciata), and the water monitor (Varanus
salvator).
Two python species are protected from unregulated international trade; the Burmese python
and the reticulated python (refer 0).

The proposed development area has been highly modified. Land clearance, agriculture, human
settlements and exotic forestry have replaced all but a few remnants of forest habitat that would
have once covered the entire area. The plantation forest, and the mixed agriculture habitats do
provide some alternative habitat for birds, reptiles and mammals, but it is the small remnants of
forest that provides the best habitat and supports the most diversity in flora and fauna species.
This habitat is not at direct risk from development, due to its steepness and inaccessibility along
the Cirumamis River (and waterfalls), although fire and poaching are still possible threats. The
sustainability of the communities of flora and fauna within the remnants is at risk from the
isolation from other seed sources and breeding populations.
A full list of threatened and protected species identified in the 2006 and 2009 studies is provided
in Table 9.

Previous studies had identified through interviews that the Javan tiger (Panthera tigris sondaica)
was resident in the area. The tiger is actually considered extinct1. No field observations have
been made in any of the studies, including the 2009 study. It is most likely that the identification
of the leopard (Panthera pardus melas) or the jungle cat (Felis bengalensis) has been mistaken
for the Javan tiger, or that interviewees have misinterpreted the interview questions during
previous surveys (Rahmat, 2009).
The two reservoirs will be located on the Cisokan River and its upper tributaries. The Cisokan
River is a major tributary of the Cirata Dam, on the Citarum River. The river system is illustrated
in Figure 1 and in Figure 3 (Appendix A).
At the site of the lower dam on the Cisokan River the catchment area is 355km2. The two main
tributaries are the Cirumamis and Cilengkong Rivers. The catchment area at the site of the
1

59
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
upper dam on the Cirumamis River is 10.5km2, and includes the Citapos, Cipateungteung,
Cilawang, Cidongke and Cimarel Rivers.
Figure 15 Confluence of Cisokan (left) and Cirumamis (right) Rivers (Rahmat, 2009)
There are no other dams or impediments to natural flow upstream of the project site. All upper
tributaries are likely to flow all year round, but experience long periods of low flow during the dry
season.
The Cisokan River is part of the Citarum River catchment, which drains a large part of West
Java, including the city of Bandung, and contains three large hydropower dams (including Cirata
and Saguling dams). The river system is highly modified by the dams, and has poor water
quality along much of its lower reaches due to the discharges from untreated industrial and
domestic wastewater and solid waste.
60
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
The Cijambu River is located within the Figure 16 Cijambu River (Rahmat, 2009)
project area along the proposed access road
route, but is not part of the Cisokan River
catchment. The Cijambu River is a tributary
of the Saguling dam (and therefore also part
of the large Citarum River catchment), and
drains steep hills before meandering along a
small river valley to the dam. There are no
dams or flow impediments on this river
between the upper tributaries and its
confluence with the Saguling dam.
A brief summary of the river habitats is provided in 0, as observed during field work during
August 17 – 15 September 2009 towards the end of the dry season. These observations
provide a broad understanding of the nature and quality of habitat for fish and invertebrates.
61
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
The upper tributaries of the Cisokan River are narrow (<3m wide) and the riverbeds are
generally boulder and cobble based, with sandy / silt deposits. The habitats are typical riffle-
run-pool habitats, with waterfalls in steep gullies. The presence of green algae (periphyton) on
the rocks indicates high nutrient availability and extended periods of low flow conditions.
62
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
The Cisokan River has a boulder and cobble bottomed habitat with sand and silt deposits on the
inner bends which indicate large sediment contributions from the upper catchment. The river
flows through narrow river valleys at the project site, with a relatively steep gradient. The water
is discolored, even during dry periods, a further indication of an elevated sediment load (water
color differences are noticeable in Figure 15).
7.11 Hydrology
Hydrology data is scarce. The available data is a combination of a small number of river
gaugings at Cibule, immediately downstream of the lower dam location, and synthesized
monthly flow data from the nearby Cirata Dam and Manglid flow stations.
PLN commissioned manual flow gaugings at Cibule in 1990/91, November 2000 to October
2001, and in 1996. The 2000/01 data has since been correlated with data from the flow stations
at Cirata Dam (Citarum River), and Manglid (Cisokan River downstream of the lower dam site)
to provide design data for the scheme. There are no flow records that provide continuous or
daily flow data to show the characteristics of freshes or floods, or of prolonged dry periods
during the dry season. A summary of the available data sets is provided in Appendix G.
The following sections provide a summary of the estimations of average, low and flood flows,
based on these various hydrological data sets.
63
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
Average flow data is provided in Table 11. The table demonstrates a range of average mean
monthly flows for the Cisokan River at the lower dam location, depending on the source of the
data (correlated or field investigations).
No low flow analysis has been undertaken to determine the recurrence of low flows or the mean
annual low flow. A summary of low flow estimates based on the available data sets is provided
in 0. The data shows that the Cisokan River can get very low, at less than 1m3/s. An average
flow of 0.1m3/s over a month seems highly unlikely, because the Cisokan River catchment
appears large enough to provide a much larger base flow, and because the Cisokan River is
much larger than the Cirumamis River (which has the same minimum mean monthly flow).

tributary)
Data sources:
1. Correlated data from 1928 – 1999 data set
2. Correlated data from 1991 – 2000 data set
3. Field investigations
River flows tend to be lowest from June to October, which correlates with the annual dry
season. Average mean monthly flows for the Cisokan River are less than 10m 3/s between June
and October, but are between 15 and 30m3/s in the months of November to May (based on
Saguling / Cirata correlated data).
The probable flood peak discharges at the upper and lower dams were calculated from
correlating flow data from Saguling and Manglid flow recording stations.
Rivers throughout the upper catchment are used by villagers for bathing and as a lavatory.
They are also used for recreation, fishing, and for washing clothes, motorbikes and other
cleaning purposes. The rivers are also used for stock drinking water. People mainly use the
rivers in the dry season, when the flow is low. In the wet season the larger rivers are often too
high and swift for most uses, particularly the main stem of the Cisokan River.
Some local residents rely on fish from the river for subsistence living, and do not fish the rivers
for commercial reasons. Fishers use nets, lines, electric-fishing equipment and poison to catch
fish.
There are four cable bridges that connect villages across the Cisokan River. People also wade
across the river at other locations during the dry season.
Water is taken from the smaller upper and side tributaries for rice field irrigation, fish ponds and
non-potable domestic water use. Small (household) scale hydroelectric water wheels are also
located in the smaller tributaries.

Approximately 3km downstream of the lower dam location the Cihea Irrigation System currently
diverts a maximum of 6.0m3/s from the Cisokan River to irrigate rice fields, via a series of
canals. The scheme has the capacity to irrigate 5,607 ha however the amount of irrigated land
is reducing. A total of 5401ha was irrigated by the scheme in 2000 (PLN/Newjec Inc, 2002).
The average water demand for the scheme is 5.2 m3/sec. During drier years there can be a
deficit of up to 3.0 m3/s, particularly between August – October as recorded by PT PLN, 1998.
No other downstream river uses have been documented in the previous EIA studies, but it is
very likely that people rely on the river for stock drinking water supplies and irrigation, and use
the river bed for stock grazing.
Notable discharges to the upper catchment waterways include the drainage water from rice
fields and animal huts which are high in nutrients, mercury from gold mining, sediment run-off
from exposed agricultural land, roads and hardstand areas in settlements, and the nutrients,
heavy metals, biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) and pathogenic bacteria from people
washing and defecating in and nearby the river.
In 2001 it was reported by locals that there were between 50 to 100 traditional gold mining
groups in the Campaka subdistrict (Cisokan River catchment upstream of the lower reservoir),
using mercury to abstract gold (PLN/Newjec, 2001). Mercury was then discharged into the
rivers.
67
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
Water quality has been tested a number of times for previous EIA studies. Sampling results is
provided in Appendix G and sampling locations are provided in Figure 11, Appendix A. It is
assumed that water quality sampling has been carried out mainly in the dry season (unless
otherwise noted), and at periods of low to average flow (ie not during high flow or flood
conditions).
Water quality standards for the Citarum River and its tributaries are specified in the West Java
Governor Decree No 39 of 2000. The standards are provided with the sampling results and
refer to the following water uses:
B: water suitable for drinking water but must be treated.
C: water suitable for aquaculture fisheries and cattle breeding / drinking water.
D: water suitable for irrigation, municipal activities, industry and hydropower plants.
Water quality is described below, first for the Cisokan River and upper tributaries, and then for
the Cijambu River, a tributary of the Saguling reservoir on the Citarum River.
A broad assessment of the water quality data shows that several water quality parameters at
Cisokan River and its upper tributaries have exceeded the water quality standards. The results
are representative of the impacts of catchment uses and the point and non-point discharges to
the river systems.
Results across all sites show the river temperatures are consistently warm (25 – 26oC) and total
dissolved solids and conductivity are within water quality standards. pH is generally between
neutral and slightly alkaline (7 – 8.33), although water appears to become more acidic (as low
as 5.07) at the end of the dry season.
Dissolved oxygen was low (<6mg/L) across all sampling sites, but in all samples remained
above the water quality standards of 3mg/L. COD and BOD5 concentrations routinely exceeded
the water quality standards across the catchment.
Nutrient concentrations were generally within the water quality guidelines except for
ammoniacal nitrogen (NH3-N) at sites across the catchment and in all data sets. Free chlorine
was elevated compared to the water quality guidelines at the upstream site on the Cisokan
River main stem and on the Cilengkong River, in 2006.
Several heavy metals and trace elements were elevated in the rivers compared to the water
quality guidelines. In 2001 and 2006 zinc concentrations exceed the guidelines at all sites, and
copper concentrations exceed the guidelines in 2006 at all but the upstream Cisokan River main
stem site. Hexavalent chromium exceeded the water quality guidelines at the upstream
Cisokan River main stem site in 2006.
Mercury concentrations were elevated in the Cisokan River and in 2001 results were very high
compared to the water quality standard of 1mg/L; 20.17mg/l above the Ciawitali confluence, and
68
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
16.40mg/l above the lower dam location. The presence of this mercury is likely to be due to the
gold mining activities in the upper part of Cisokan River.
E. coli, fecal coliform and total coliform concentrations often exceed the water quality standard
across the catchment. Based on field observation this contamination is likely to be due to the
waste water discharges from the settlements (including domestic and livestock sources).
In 2006 specific analysis of the eutrophic level of the river water was undertaken across four
sites. The concentrations of indicator parameters (total nitrogen, phosphate, BOD5 and
Chlorophyll) indicated that the environment is eutrophic.
Water quality has also been sampled once in the Cijambu River, a tributary of the Saguling
dam, at the location where the new access road will cross the river. The results from the 2007
sampling round indicate that water quality is generally poorer in this catchment compared to the
upper tributaries of the Cisokan River. This may be due to higher population pressures in the
catchment and the resulting volume of discharges.
Total dissolved solids and conductivity were higher than the Cisokan River catchment, but within
water quality standards. Dissolved oxygen concentrations were lowest at this site, at 3.11 mg/L,
but above the water quality guidelines. BOD and COD were very high, at 100mg/L and 126.99
mg/L respectively. Nutrients were generally within the guidelines except for ammoniacal
nitrogen. Trace elements and metals were elevated at the site, including hexavalent chromium,
selenium, zinc and copper. Mercury was not detected in the samples. E. coli concentrations
were the lowest compared to the Cisokan catchment sampling sites, at 9 MPN/100ml.
Various design and environmental baseline studies have provided estimates of the catchment
erosion rates, between 0.674mm/km2/yr and 2.77mm/km2/yr (PLN/Newjec Inc., 1995;
PLN/Newjec Inc., 2002; PLN/Newjec Inc., 2007b; PT. PLN, 1998). The rate used in the design
of the dam infrastructure, is 1.86mm/km2/yr.
Broad studies on the macro invertebrate and fish communities have been undertaken that,
along with the water quality data, provide a basic picture of the health of the aquatic
environment and its ability to support a functioning ecosystem.
The species type and the diversity are indicators of the availability of food for fish, amphibians,
birds etc., and are general indicators of water and habitat quality. The river geomorphology,
river flow and water quality data described above suggest that there should be good habitat
available for a wide range of macro invertebrates, including beetles, mayflies, caddis flies,
stoneflies, snails and mollusks. This is despite some of the issues with water quality and
sedimentation. However the macro invertebrate samples from 2006 show poor macro
69

Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
invertebrate communities at all seven water quality sampling sites (locations are provided in
Figure 11, Appendix A). The data sets are provided in Appendix G.
There were few individuals collected at each site (2 – 33), and low diversity of species (<6).
The most abundant genera were snails, which are tolerant of poor water quality. Indicators of
good water quality and benthic habitat, such as mayfly, caddis fly and stonefly larvae, were
present, but not abundant.
Fish data has been collected throughout the project development period. The most
comprehensive study was completed in 2009 (Appendix F). Data from previous studies are
listed in Appendix G. Based on the results of the 2009 study, at least 19 species of fish are
likely to be present in the Upper Cisokan catchments and tributaries of the Saguling dam within
the study area. Common fish listed in the study included guppy, tilapia, common carp, hampala
barb and bogo (snakehead). The fish are typical of similar catchments in Java.
Tilapia, carp, catfish are introduced food species and can live in a variety of habitats, including
slow moving, river and lake environments and environments with soft sediments. Catfish can
also occupy rice paddies and hypoxic, muddy environments. Tilapia are in the IUCN‟s top 100
of the world‟s worst alien invasive species as it disrupts native species from their habitats.
Snakehead are hardy native fish that can tolerate changes in temperature and pH. Platyfish
and swordtail are introduced fish and not a food supply. Both are omnivorous and can survive
on a variety of food sources. Swordtail prefer swift flowing habitats.
Hampala are found in most types of water bodies, including Saguling and other reservoirs, but
prefer clear, running water. They are native to Indonesia, and a food source for locals.
In the Cirumamis River, common carp, guppy, tilapia, snakehead and catfish are present
(through fish surveys and interviews with locals). The upper tributaries have fewer species than
the Cisokan River. Through interviews with locals, the Cisokan River is considered to have
native fish such as sengal (type of catfish), kehkel, kancera, genggehek, arelot and jeler.
Kehkel and kancera prefer clear, oxygenated water and forest habitats.
The Cijambu River, in the Saguling catchment, has at least 10 fish and one shrimp species.
The fish found in the river are similar to those in the Cisokan catchment.
70
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
Due to the declining quality of river habitats across Java, and due to competition from
introduced species, the native fish that are considered vulnerable to habitat change are the
kancera and kehkel. These species prefer fast flowing, clear water habitats, rather than
reservoir or lake habitats.
The hydrology of the upper Cisokan River catchment responds to rainfall, and appears to have
a low flow season and a high flow season consistent with the wet and rainy seasons. The upper
tributaries are likely to experience long periods of low flow but do not appear to run dry during
the dry season, and are likely to be fed by springs in the volcanic and limestone rock. There are
small gravity fed abstractions from the river and its tributaries for rice field irrigation, fish farms
and non-potable domestic use. The most significant abstraction is 6m3/s from the Cihea
Irrigation System downstream of the project area.
Sediment is discharged to the river from slips and other exposed soil, from rice field and
plantation land, and from roads and settlements. Other discharges to the river are mainly
diffuse, and include rice field run-off, washing discharges and defecation activities, as well as
mercury discharges from gold mining activities. The river may also be indirectly affected by
septic tanks, and other run-off from settlements.
Overall, water quality in the Cisokan and Cijambu catchments is average to poor, and does not
meet Indonesian river water quality standards for many parameters. The main issues are the
pathogenic bacteria contamination, which can cause gastro enteric health problems in humans
and livestock, and the mercury concentrations, which can create acute and chronic health
problems as a bioaccumulant. This water quality data is reinforced by the macro invertebrate
surveys which indicate moderate to poor water quality.
Fish surveys indicate at least 19 species of fish in the Cisokan and Saguling catchments. No
fish from the surveys are listed on the IUCN red list or are legally protected.
71

7.17 Groundwater
Hydrogeology has not been studied specifically. The interactions between surface water and
ground water are not clear but, based on observed conditions at the downstream Saguling Dam
and the results of shallow rock porosity tests, shallow groundwater is likely to be connected to
the surface water through the weathered rock.
Shallow groundwater is used for domestic potable water supply. In 2007 two wells were
sampled, at Sukaresmi and Karangnunggal villages, as illustrated in Figure 11, Appendix A.
The wells are hand dug, and exposed to the ground surface, and therefore are at risk from
direct surface contamination.
When assessed against the drinking water quality standards2, the results showed water quality
is generally good, with low nutrients, heavy metals and trace elements compared to the
guidelines. pH was slightly alkaline, and this is assumed to be naturally so due to the geology.
The temperature was 26oC, which is indicative of the water being exposed to the ambient
conditions. E. coli was elevated above drinking water quality standards at the Sukaresmi
sampling well. This is likely to come from surface contamination at the well.
With little industry in the area, there are no significant point source discharges to the air. Typical
discharges include domestic fires (gas, firewood, waste), rice field burn offs, vehicle exhausts
(particularly two stroke motorbikes) and dust from roads and fields.
Air quality was monitored around the project site in 2007. Monitoring results are provided in
Appendix G, and monitoring sites are located in Figure 11, Appendix A. The results from the
dry season sampling event show that the ambient air quality meets national air quality
standards3. Most notable was the total suspended particulate results, which show slightly
elevated results at all recorders, and is likely to be associated with dust from the roads as well
as the vehicle exhausts and fires.
7.19 Noise
The rural environment in the project area is generally quiet. Major noise sources are vehicles,
chainsaws, rice threshers, generators and other small machinery. In the hill area, the small,
deep valleys help to attenuate noise from one catchment to the next.
Ambient noise has been monitored twice, once in 1998 and once in 2007. Monitoring results
are provided in Appendix G, and monitoring sites are located in Figure 11, Appendix A. In 1998
results showed levels below the maximum standard for residential areas, schools and religious

buildings of 55dBA4. The site where the loudest noise recordings were made was Bojong
hamlet, Sukaresmi village, where there is a high frequency of traffic.
In 2007 the Cipari Junction, the intersection between the Saguling Hydroelectric Power Plant
access road and the road to the Upper Cisokan project site, recorded the highest noise levels.
This site, and the recorders at Cipongkor and Cijambu villages, at times recorded noise above
the 55 dBA noise standard.
A survey of physical cultural resources, which included religious buildings and private graves,
was carried out in 2009 and involved consultation with local people, site identification, grid
reference location using GPS, and photographic records. The report (Neneng, 2009) is
provided in Appendix E, and contains maps and photos of each of the sites. A full list of
surveyed sites is provided in 0.
No sites are listed by local or national authorities as having specific legal protection or
significance. The sites of particular interest, due to their religious or other significance with
locals and visitors, are considered to be the sacred graves, the Batu Bedil (gun stone), and
Maqom Mbah Tubuy (rest area of a famous preacher). However, the numerous public and
private graves and religious buildings in the project area also require respect and protection
during construction and reservoir preparation.

Based on the baseline data, the following is a list of the sensitive environmental receptors and
other key aspects of the environment.
The hill environment is subject to earthquakes, landslides and erosion, and several
potential slips have been identified in the upper reservoir area.
Most of the land cover is farmland and other productive and semi-productive
landscapes, primarily supporting subsistence farm livelihoods, small communities and
exotic forestry.
There is a small and isolated patch of remnant forest along the Cirumamis River,
between the upper and lower dam locations, that contains high flora diversity and is
home to a number of species that are near threatened or endangered.
Endangered species identified in the biodiversity survey include the silvery Javan
gibbon, grizzle leaf monkey and pangolin. The gibbon and monkey are endemic to Java.
Hydrology mimics the two predominant seasons; high flows during the rainy season, and
prolonged low flows during the dry season. Detailed hydrological data for the area is
scarce.
River water quality is generally average to poor, with major threats being erosion and
sediment deposits, and discharges from farming, settlements, gold mining and other
river uses.
The most significant water abstraction requirement from the Cisokan River downstream
of the project area is 6m3/s from the Cihea Irrigation System.
The physical cultural sites of particular interest, due to their religious or other
significance with locals and visitors, are considered to be a number of sacred graves, the
Batu Bedil or gun stone, and Maqom Mbah Tubuy – a resting area of a famous
preacher. No sites are listed by local or national authorities as having specific legal
protection or significance.

8 SOCIO-ECONOMIC BASELINE
Social impact assessment interviews, surveys and data analyses have been carried out three
times, in 1997, 2001 and in 2006. For this EIA, the 2006 data (PLN/Newjec Inc; 2007a, 2007c,)
is considered the most relevant, however details from previous studies are included where
applicable.

Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
The basic demographics of each village are provided in 0. Based on ANDAL study on 2007, the
administration area covered by each village varies between 5.5km2 (Cibaregbeg) to 105.3km2
(Girimulya), and the population in each village varies between 3,758 persons (Karangsari) to
8,211 persons (Sukaresmi). The wide variance in the size of the administration area and
population means that the density (person/km2) is also varied in the villages across the project
area, from 41.7 p/km2 (Girimulya) to 1,256 p/km2 (Cibaregbeg). The villages with smaller land
sizes (Cibaregbeg, Karangsari, Sarinagen, and Margaluyu) are located on the northern plains,
where population densities are naturally higher due to the more fertile land and proximity to
larger centers for employment and social services. Kemang, with the lowest population density,
covers hill country, with less fertile land suitable for agriculture / subsistence living.

The gender balance is generally within 5% in most villages, which is typical / expected. The
most unbalanced village is Sarinagen, where there is a 195.3% ratio of men to women. The
reason for this is not documented, but could be a result of women leaving to work in the cities or
abroad, or the presence of a male-dominated industry in the village.
Approximately 65% of the population is aged between 15 and 65, the age of the „productive‟
work force, but this fluctuates between villages. The percentage of the total population aged
below 15 is approximately 30%, and approximately 3.6% aged above 65. The overall ratio of
the eligible „working‟ population to „non-working‟ population is 0.54, but also fluctuates between
villages.
The population is distributed throughout Kampungs (hamlets) and comprises small rural families
and communities with strong kinship and traditional social and cultural attitudes. Their day to
day activities are strongly influenced by the Muslim religion, and village and religious leaders
play an important role in decision-making, problem solving and village development. Men are
considered the „heads of households‟ and the main bread-winners and decision-makers, whilst
women manage household and family matters, as well as undertaking planting and harvesting
activities. Education levels are low throughout the area, and most people have only attended
elementary schools.
Topography affects social relations in the communities within the project area. For the
communities living in the hill country, with dry land or forestry agricultural activities, residents are
segregated into small hamlet groups. With transportation and accessibility difficult, these
pockets of small social groups are relatively isolated.
79
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
In general, kinship patterns are characterized by the traditional Sundanese community kinship
system which draws descendent lines bilaterally. In areas characterized by dry land and forestry
agriculture, this kinship pattern is very common and has considerable influence on the
settlement group. In the communities with rice field agriculture, the kinship patterns are present,
but do not influence settlement patterns as much.
The topographical features and transportation challenges, in combination with local kinship
patterns in the settlements, leads to strong feelings associated with being in the ”in group”.
Almost every hamlet has a prominent figure who is considered influential, and obedience to
these formal and informal leaders is strong.
In areas with predominantly dry land or forestry agriculture, leaders are determined though
kinship and socio-religious importance and dominate the decision making process.
Disagreements between settlements are generally discussed between the family members with
the head of the family having the most influence. This local leadership pattern tends to prevent
one prominent person from having influence over more than one small area.
With strong ties among these small hamlet groups, the cohesion in the greater community
sometimes suffers when disagreements arise. Community organizations, such as youth groups
and farmers organizations (that are not necessarily aligned to families or hamlets) often suffer
from the tendency of each hamlet to act in unison against other hamlets. As such, despite the
designation as one administrative area (ie the village), the residents do not necessarily function
as a community.
A different pattern of social relations developed in the rice field agriculture communities in close
proximity to the quarry and existing road. The area is more open and accessible with spacious
settlement patterns. Social stratification emerges as a result of educational differences as well
as a result of differences in wealth and control of resources, such as landlords. Although
kinship networks still have influence, the power differentials are more defined by wealth and
resource control. This occurrence is clearly illustrated by the people who occupy important
positions in the village government. They typically have relatively higher education levels and
greater wealth when compared to other people in the area. Village leaders and landlords
reportedly form mutually profitable business relationships that solidify their position of leadership
and influence.
Islam is the dominant religion and the religious beliefs are reflected in daily life, such as regular
prayer, reciting the Qur‟an, and in the social etiquette and interaction between people.
Social interaction beyond employment and time with family and friends is dominated by religious
activities, including recitation of the Qu‟ran, prayer and ceremonial activities. Another popular
pastime is „arisan‟, a locally organized money pool by turns. Communities will also join together
to discuss and cooperate on local issues, constructing and maintaining community facilities,
80

Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
business or employment opportunities, assistance with food scarcity or other difficulties and
other forms of mutual cooperation.
Along the transmission line route, approximately 70% of houses are „non-permanent‟ (made of
bamboo sheeting, rather than concrete or block). Most houses have access to electricity from
the grid (approximately 88%) with the remaining households reliant on kerosene and solid fuel.
Less than one percent of households use their own generators. Approximately 18% of
households do not have any means of receiving media from TV, radio or video. Very few
households have a refrigerator. Approximately 75% of households have no form of
transportation (including bicycles). Of the remaining 25%, the motorbike is the most common
means of transportation.
Within the hydropower scheme area 93.7% of houses are non permanent. A similar percentage
of houses are owned by the occupier (93.9%).
8.3.4 Education
Overall, the education level of the adult population is generally low. The majority of adult survey
respondents had passed primary school education (58% hydropower scheme area; 72% in
transmission line route). A small percentage of the surveyed adult population had completed
some education beyond primary school (approximately 4% in hydropower area, 14.4% in
transmission line route). The remaining respondents had not attended school, or did not
complete primary school.
Within the hydropower scheme area survey, it was reported that children of school age (7-15)
and either sex are often compelled to drop out from school to assist the family to earn income.
This differs to the transmission line route survey results, which show there is motivation by
many families to improve the level of education of their children compared to their own
education, to give them better work opportunities away from the farm / village. This difference
may reflect the different work and educational opportunities available to residents in the villages
that were surveyed in each study. It is likely that those more remote villages in the hydropower
area may still not be able to provide their children with better educational opportunities, and may
have more need for children to work for the family, compared to those closer to sub-district
centers that provide higher education and work opportunities.
8.3.5 Mobility
Population mobility refers to the movement of the population between areas for work or other
productive activities. Mobility is higher in the transmission line villages, where at least one
member of the family travels out of the village for work or market in 78% of households
(PLN/Newjec Inc., 2007a). In the reservoir area, in 46.9% of households at least one member
travels out of the village for work or markets (PLN/Newjec Inc., 2007c). The higher mobility
villages tend to be those that are closer to (or part of) larger sub-district population centers and
closer to public transport services and main roads. The more remote villages travel or commute
less, because of the lack of (or cost of) transport and because livelihoods are based on the land
where they live. Population mobility in the project area is dominated by males.
81
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
According to respondents, the primary reason for mobility in the population is to commute to
areas where the earning potential is higher. Of the adult males who commute, the most
common reason cited was to work, followed by trade. Other reasons are shopping, community
services (ie health services) and visiting friends and family.
The majority of travelers from the transmission line survey tend to commute daily, whereas the
majority of travelers from the hydropower scheme survey (PLN/Newjec. Inc., 2007c) travel
engage in work outside of the area for one to three months, and then remain close to home for a
period of one week to one month. This may be related to the types of skill sets and work
opportunities available to the different groups of people, or the difficulty / cost of transport.
Shallow, hand dug wells are the main source of potable water, although some homes or
hamlets which have small waterways nearby will use surface water (6% of the population
(PLN/Newjec Inc., 2007a)). Water quality samples from two wells in 2006 indicate pathogenic
bacteria contamination which can cause gastric illnesses (refer Section 7.17). Well water is
likely to be contaminated from activities at the surface, because the wells are not securely
protected (no caps or lids).
Few houses have septic tank wastewater treatment systems, and there is no reticulated and
centralized wastewater treatment in any of the villages. The general pattern in the hydropower
scheme area is that people living near waterways will use them for bathing, washing and as a
toilet. People living further from waterways are likely to have latrines as toilets, but which are
not connected to septic tanks. A small minority of houses have septic tanks, generally as a
result of government education and funding schemes. Public toilets are available in some
areas. In the transmission line survey, 74.5% of respondents have their own private toilet
(PLN/Newjec Inc., 2007a).
The majority of solid waste is burnt or buried on site, although littering and dumping of rubbish in
public space also occurs.
Community based health services are well-supported if they can be accessed. Mobile health
services are provided, but are infrequent in the more remote villages and hamlets because
community health officers have difficulty reaching the isolated areas. In the more remote areas,
people are less likely to travel to community health centers, and rely more on traditional
medicines prescribed by family members or traditional healers in a community.
The nearest hospital in Cianjur, about 25 km away, where x-ray and operating facilities are
available.
82

Common diseases and illnesses recorded in the area include pneumonia, skin infections,
gastritis and other gastric illnesses, rheumatism, and typhoid. These illnesses are indicative of
the hygiene of the living conditions, sanitation and diet / food availability.
Livelihoods are mainly subsistence, with rice fields, mixed agriculture and home gardens
providing most of the household food. Spare produce may be sold at local markets. Pigs and
deer may be hunted (although deer may no longer live in the area, and due to religion belief that
the pigs are not eaten by the community), and fish are caught in the rivers.
The main source of income is agriculture. The majority of the heads of households in the
project area are farmers or farm laborers (>80%). A small percentage are construction laborers,
shop keepers, motorbike drivers or travelling salespeople. Since most of the rice fields are rain
fed there are only two harvests a year, almost 100% of the productive workforce have a second
job to supplement their income, mainly within the local area.
The main occupation of the women in the household is also primarily agriculturally based.
Around 3% are working overseas and sending money back to the household, and 4.5% run
shops. Around 44% of women have secondary occupations, mostly relating to agriculture.
People in the hydropower scheme area, which is more remote, are more likely to have
agricultural-based occupations, whereas in the transmission line area there are more people
involved in private businesses, factory work and laboring occupations.
The poverty line in Indonesia is determined by the basic minimum caloric demand of 2,100 kcal
per capita per month. In March 2006, the Central Statistics Bureau (BPS) determined the urban
and rural poverty lines to be Rp. 175,324 and Rp. 131,256 per capita per month respectively
(PLN/Newjec Inc., 2007c).
The survey in the hydropower scheme area indicates the percentage of respondents on or
below the poverty line is 34.1% (PLN/Newjec Inc., 2007c). Along the transmission line route,
the percentage of respondents on or below the poverty line is 41.9% (PLN/Newjec Inc., 2007a).
The region appears to have poorer people than average when compared to the rest of the
country. According to national statistics, 17.75% of the total population of Indonesia is on or
below the poverty line (PLN/Newjec Inc., 2007c).
On average, approximately 3% of income is left for incidental expenses, after food, routine
household expenses (clothes, electricity) and education is paid for.

through leasing or shareholding does not afford the same rights as ownership and is therefore
less secure in the event land changes hands.
A summary of land ownership by land use type, based on survey results, is shown in 0. Land
ownership (of any land use type) is generally smaller than 0.25ha.

No ownership 98% NR
In the hydropower scheme area 72.3% of households surveyed own some land. 50% of the
landowners own land holdings less than 0.25ha. These farmers are usually referred to as small
farmers, or gurem. Making such small parcels of land profitable is difficult, indicating these small
farmers are most likely among the poorer residents in the project area and also considered
vulnerable.
84
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
Many households also lease land, either in addition to the land they own, or because they are
landless.
8.5 Summary
Most people in the hydropower scheme area have small land plots and low incomes. Most live
in a relatively remote area with a poorly developed communication network, and have low
education levels and few skills other than subsistence farming. Approximately 34.1% of the
population are at or below the poverty line in the hydropower area, and 41.9% in the
transmission line area. Houses occupied by the majority of the population are considered non-
permanent.
Women are rarely found as the head of households, although they contribute to household
income. Village heads and religious leaders are very important to the communities and are
influential in making decisions about social and physical development and in resolving problems
and disputes. These communities are vulnerable to economic, social and environmental
change.

The purpose of each meeting or interview was to first convey information to the people
regarding the project, and secondly to seek feedback to gain an understanding of their
perceptions of the project, their aspirations and to receive their comments on how the project
may affect them. Written documentation on the project was provided, as well as oral
presentations and discussions with the meeting attendees or interviewees.
To summarize, the key points from the feedback from the communities, government institutions
and NGO‟s and the responses from PLN are as follows:
Adequate compensation for lost land and economic opportunity, including the landless.
People asked for clear information concerning compensation procedure, and
transparency. The feedback was also that people should not be made worse off through
the process.
PLN‟s response was that compensation rates will be based on standardized land and
properties prices, and that problems, conflicts and misunderstandings would be met
through negotiation and consensus.
As far as possible, to recruit local labor.
It was confirmed that priority would be given for recruitment of local people, based on
abilities and qualifications.
Periodical evaluation/measurement and notice board to communicate progress and
issues to the community.
Conduct Corporate Social Responsibility.
Damaging effects of heavy vehicles on village roads.
There was discussion that the roads would be upgraded where heavy vehicles would be
in use.
The Fisheries Service requested details about the potential for developing aquaculture
activities in the reservoirs.
The response was that the reservoirs offer restricts aquaculture activities due to the
rapid rise and fall of the water level.
Changes in cultural and social conditions that would arise. Local NGO‟s were
concerned about the adjustments from farming to aquaculture for example, after
resettlement.
The response was that the resettlement program will involve training and pilot
demonstrations to assist in the transition.
96
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
The construction of a new access road should be considered a benefit for local people,
to open up the isolated area.
Impacts on groundwater.
The response was that reservoirs may result in a local rise in groundwater levels.
The impacts on the use of the Cisokan River for irrigation via the Cihea scheme.
The response was that the scheme will not change the natural flow regime under
operation and controlled discharges will meet downstream demands during filling of the
reservoir.
Potential impacts on water quality from the reservoirs.
The response was to explain that there may be more scouring in the downstream
channel due to the reduced sediment load, however higher nutrient status could be
beneficial for irrigation.
The 500 kV transmission line will be dangerous for houses or land located underneath.
People are concerned about air pollution and health problems.
It was explained that 500 kV transmission lines are not dangerous for health.
The general conclusions in 2006 (PLN/Newjec Inc., 2007b) was that people are very aware of
the project, because it has been planned since 1992, however through the long process of field
studies and social surveys, there has not been a lot of certainty amongst the community about
the project details. When people were interviewed or attended meetings and received detailed
information, they were generally supportive of the project, and wished to remain informed and
involved, and to receive adequate compensation for any losses they may suffer.

10.1 Introduction
The environmental and social impacts in relation to the access road construction, quarry
operations, dam construction, preparation of the reservoir areas and transmission line
construction are discussed in this section.
The following list of management and monitoring plans are the key tools to implement the
proposed mitigation measures, as part of the overarching Upper Cisokan Hydropower Scheme
Environmental Management Plan:
Water quality and in-stream habitats are at risk from the discharge of sediment, working in the
river beds, vegetation clearance and the storm water run-off from cement batching plants,
asphalt plants and work areas. Water quality is also at risk from the deliberate discharge of
pollutants (oils, fuel, wet cement), including workers using the river to clean equipment and as a
toilet. These are discussed in turn in this section.
Earthworks activities in the catchment and within the river beds, including vegetation clearance,
reservoir preparation, slope stabilization, blasting, excavations, filling, and quarry operations,
will contribute to a large amount of soil movement around the project site. The erosion risk is
considered high given the steep topography, high and intense rainfall during the rainy season,
scale of earthworks and the characteristics of the overburden in the area (easily erodible). A
significant hot spot is at the location of the lower dam, where a large amount of landslide
material within the riverbed requires removal prior to the installation of the coffer dam.
98
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
The key potential impact of erosion is sediment discharges into the river systems. Sediment
can affect habitat and aquatic organisms while in suspension in the water and as deposited
material on the streambed and banks (0).
While the rivers experience high turbidity and sediment load currently, as evidenced by the silt
and sand deposits on inner bends, and the discoloration of the Cisokan River during dry
periods, the large scale of earthworks and in-stream works for this project means that there is
the potential for sediment discharges well in excess of what is current experienced. Mitigation
and management of sediment discharges and works in the river beds are required to maintain
the existing quality of the environment. A number of mitigation measures are proposed in the
Environmental Management Plan and sub-plans, such as:
99
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
Diverting river flow away from work areas, and minimizing the amount of work within the
wetted area of river channels.
No deliberate discharge of materials into water ways.
Rapid re-establishment of exposed work areas with suitable vegetation.
The retention of riparian vegetation adjacent to the watercourses where possible to act
as buffer zones to assist in trapping sediments before reaching the watercourse.
Water quality and habitat monitoring, and the supervision and monitoring of erosion and
sediment control measures during construction, will assist with identifying and responding to the
risks associated with sediment discharges.
The construction of the tunnels and the underground power house will involve dewatering
operations because the tunnels and excavations are expected to intersect water seeps within
the rock and then form a conduit for that water to flow out to the surface. The extent of
dewatering required is unknown and so adaptive management is required during the
construction process to control the dewatering process. The drainage will contain crushed rock
material and products such as nitrates from explosives residues, and wet cement. Particles of
pollutants will be entrained in any resulting drainage waters and any discharge of these to the
rivers could cause adverse impacts on the habitat and biodiversity.
The main mitigation option available is to provide settlement ponds at the exit of the tunnel
portals prior to discharge to the Cisokan River. These should be sized appropriately for the
incoming flows and particle sizes and aim to settle out the majority (75%) of incoming
suspended sediments. Settlement ponds should be designed to contain all the incoming
waters. Consideration should be given to settlement methods such as the use of flocculants if
necessary.
The operation and management regime for these features should be detailed in the
Construction and Workers Camp Management Plan.
Cement and fly-ash are highly alkali, and any discharge of dry or wet cement or fly-ash from
batching plants or work areas into water can kill fish and invertebrates. All stormwater run-off
from these areas should be captured and treated to reduce the pH prior to discharge to the
river. No concrete work should be carried out in the wet area of rivers and there should be no
deliberate discharge of dry or wet cement, or fly-ash, into the rivers.
There should be no direct discharges of any pollutants to any rivers, and the rivers should not
be used to clean machinery or as a toilet, or for any other purpose where pollutants may be
released. Fuel storage, asphalt manufacturing, explosives and other potentially polluting
activities must occur away from rivers and have adequate pollution control measures. The
Construction and Workers Camp Management Plan provides mitigation measures and
procedures to avoid direct discharges.

10.2.4 Summary
Water quality will be impacted during the construction phase, primarily due to sediment
discharges. There are basic good housekeeping practices to manage the majority of
discharges to rivers, and they are contained in the Environmental Management Plan and the
Construction and Workers Camp Management Plan. Water quality monitoring during
construction as part of the long term baseline monitoring programs, and up and downstream of
specific work areas, will measure whether the mitigation measures are effective and provide
feedback to the construction team to make adjustments as necessary. With good housekeeping
and monitoring, the impacts will be minimized.
The major land use types within the project area consist of settlements and cultivation areas;
rice fields, mixed plantation and forest, settlements and yard gardens. All of these areas are not
significant habitats for biodiversity. The land use types are similar to those found throughout the
wider hill country area, and therefore there are opportunities for fauna species to migrate and
find alternative refuge in similar habitats during construction, land clearance and inundation.
The remnant of secondary growth forest habitat is at risk from construction disturbances. The
entire forest is approximately 1ha (as shown in Figure 22). Any impact on this forest remnant is
significant as it provides to endangered, threatened and vulnerable species, as well as several
endemic mammalian species. The endangered species identified in the 2009 survey are the
grizzle leaf monkey, silvery Javan gibbon and pangolin.

The current knowledge of biodiversity, based on several „presence / absence‟ surveys (Section
7), is informative enough to highlight a potential issue, but without further assessment of the
viability of the habitat, and the range, ecosystem niches and viability of the populations of
species, the potential impacts are difficult to predict.
Two key factors ensure that construction of the scheme will not lead to species extinction. This
is not the last remaining habitat for any of the three endangered species (Rahmat, pers. com);
each has populations that exist elsewhere in the area, or in sanctuaries on Java. Furthermore,
the remnant forest is not within the footprint of the scheme and so will remain intact following
construction, although part of it will be located within the greenbelt zone and very near the high
water level for the lower reservoir.
Construction-related impacts will be managed through the Construction and Workers Camp
Management plan, and include:
102
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
Sediment and erosion control measures to mitigate the effects of construction on river water
quality.
Because of the close proximity of the remnant to the lower reservoir, it is proposed to fence off
the forest area, and provide warning signs not to remove any vegetation during the land
clearance and reservoir preparation. All workers and locals involved in the land clearance will
be provided with instructions to avoid any activities within the forest area.
These practical measures should minimise any additional pressures on the habitat or species
from construction and land clearance activities.
In addition, further survey and assessment work is proposed during the pre-construction and
construction phases to determine the significance and sustainability of the forest. This will be
managed through the Biodiversity Management Plan. If necessary, further monitoring and
adaptive management will continue through the inundation and operational phases of the
project. Details on the proposed content of the Plan are provided in Section 13.
A final mitigation measure is the revegetation of the greenbelt area with local vegetation with the
intention of extending the viable habitat and range of species within the forest. Details are
provided in Section 5.11.2.
All physical cultural resources, religious buildings and graves identified in the 2009 survey can
either be relocated or protected during the construction process. 0 provides a list of the
resources that will require relocation or protection. Mitigation should be implemented as per
Neneng (2009) (Appendix E). Any incidental finds will be protected through Chance Find
Procedures in the Physical Cultural Resources Management Plan.

104

Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
Air quality may be affected by dust emissions, particulates and gaseous emissions from
exhausts. Dust emissions will primarily come from road use, exposed soil and riverbeds in
working areas and during reservoir clearance, material stockpiles, quarry operations, aggregate
crushing, blasting at the quarry and work sites, and cement manufacturing. Particulates (other
than dust) and gaseous emissions will arise from vehicles, heavy machinery, diesel generators,
and the asphalt plant.
Air quality impacts can be a nuisance to host communities (settling in water supplies and on
buildings and hardstand areas), but they can also affect people‟s health. The communities most
at risk are those immediately adjacent to the access road and close to the quarry, as those
locations are most likely to be exposed to dust and vehicle emissions.
Key mitigation measures are contained in the Environmental Management Plan and relevant
sub-plans, and include managing dust emissions and exposed soil and materials, maintenance
of vehicles and equipment to control emissions, avoiding the burning of vegetation and waste,
and maintaining a complaints system and action process. The severity of dust issues is
otherwise reduced by the lack of regular strong winds at the project site.
105
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
The main noise sources are the heavy vehicles and machinery used to clear land and for
quarrying and construction purposes, blasting at the quarry, waterways, lower dam and power
station locations, the aggregate crushers, cement and asphalt plants, diesel generators, and
trucks and other vehicles using the access road and internal site roads. While most noise will
occur during daylight hours, noise emissions from the two dam sites will continue through the
night because of the continuous nature of RCC dam construction.
All of these noise emissions will cause disturbances to local households, workers, livestock and
wildlife species. Ambient noise levels in residential areas are likely to be elevated from baseline
levels, particularly those in close proximity to the power scheme sites and the access road.
Noise may interfere with daily activities of local communities and lead to displacement of wildlife
species, particularly from the remnant secondary growth forest habitat.
To mitigate impacts in the construction areas, several measures are proposed in the
Environmental Management Plan and relevant sub-plans. Blasting and tunneling activities and
access road traffic shall occur only during daylight hours. Blasting should take place at set
times each day, and/or warning shall be issued prior to blasting. Other mitigation measures
include sound the installation of noise barriers between the access road and schools, and traffic
controls to reduce the noise (and speed) of traffic through settlements.
Ambient noise will be monitored during the construction process, and the contractor will operate
a complaints process. The contractor is expected to investigate construction methods or timing
of noisy operations following elevated noise monitoring results (beyond baseline / residential
noise standards) or complaints from the community.
The land acquisition and resettlement activities are the principal adverse socio-economic
impacts arising from the project. The following sections describe the likely resettlement and / or
compensation requirements for land owners in the hydropower scheme area and transmission
line route. The issues and impacts are managed through the Land Acquisition and
Resettlement Process (LARAP) process.
According to the latest surveys in 2009, the number of households that will require relocation
and / or compensation because they will lose part or all of their land or building assets in this
area is 2201, as shown in 0 and Table 23.

Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
The mechanism for land resettlement and / or compensation for transmission line routes is
documented in the “Ministerial Decree of Mining and Energy No. 975 K/47/MPE/1999” which is
divided into two categories; procurement and compensation. The decree states:
The land required for tower sites should be procured and compensated.
The land located within the free-space is not procured but compensated.
Buildings / houses located on land required for tower sites should be procured and
compensated.
Buildings / houses located within the free-space are not procured, but compensated.
Land owners will be compensated for all plants located along the route and in the free
space that require cutting or removal.
The acquisition of land in the forestry areas will be carried out through a procedure between
PLN and Perum Perhutani. The relevant legislation is the Ministerial Decree of Mining and
Energy and Ministry of Forestry, No. 969.K/05/M.PE/1989 and No. 429/Kpts/Ii/1989, concerning
Guidance of Mining and Energy Business Implementation in Forestry Area.
The households and landowners that are listed in the tables above are likely to lose some or all
of their land, including their houses, and it is expected that the majority will be resettled. The
final number of resettled households will depend on the outcomes of consultation and
negotiation through the resettlement process. There may be other households that may feel the
need to be resettled. They may not own land or buildings that will be directly impacted by the
project, but may want or need to be resettled for other reasons. These include:
Landless workers who will need to find new work outside of the project area if their place
of employment, livelihood or land they lease is affected, or they are affected by changes
in land use and population (ie kiosk owners, ojeg drivers, forestry workers);
Those that may feel isolated because their friends and family have had to resettle, or
because their social services, religious facilities or their normal connections to travel to
work, market or for social reasons have been disrupted by the project;
Those that may not wish to live within the free space of the transmission line route.
Land acquisition and resettlement processes and impacts will be addressed through the LARAP
process. From the census and surveys, there are a number of relevant issues that need to be
considered when consulting with, and developing a plan for, the large number of households
that will be affected.
From the outcomes of the surveys of households that require resettlement, the majority of the
community has no objection as long as they receive adequate compensation (PLN/Newjec Inc.,
2007c). The majority of households prefer that they determine their own place of resettlement,
rather than that directed by PLN. The preference is also for direct negotiations regarding land
and building compensation, rather than the use of a schedule of compensation, or rather than
109
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
indirect negotiations through third parties. The risk of anxiety and unease is high (before, during
or after resettlement) if these considerations are not adequately met through the LARAP
process.
Many of the people have a low level of formal education, and have little skills or opportunities to
earn income. Most are dependent on agriculture to provide a livelihood. Therefore their ability
to adapt to a new livelihood is low, and this will require attention in determining the location and
land type for resettlement. As all members of the household contribute income, it is important
that the LARAP process ensures the ability of both genders, and all ages, to find employment or
suitable productive land for their respective skill sets. The particularly vulnerable groups have
been identified as the elderly and widows.
The education level of the community should also be taken into account in the preparation of
community outreach documents and the type of language used consultation / negotiations.
Additionally, because a large proportion of the population is at or below the poverty line, they
have limited resources to adapt to change. It is important that all potential transaction costs are
considered in any resettlement plan.
Land speculation is another effect of the land acquisition and resettlement process. There are
already accounts of speculators offering to buy or trade land in the project area (PLN/Newjec
Inc., 2007d). While unintended, it is also largely unmanageable. Good communication and
consultation through the LARAP process will assist the existing land owners to make decisions
about selling to land speculators.
There may also be benefits to some households as a result of the resettlement process. The
current area provides little opportunity for economic and social wellbeing or improvement, and
so there is the possibility of improving livelihoods through resettlement.
The resettlement areas have not been confirmed. A „Terms of Reference‟ for the environmental
and social impact assessment of the resettlement areas is included in Appendix H, and should
be implemented once the areas have been confirmed with the affected people. Issues include:
A large number of households will not be resettled, but will remain in the project area along the
access road route, close to the construction areas and along the transmission line. These
households are at risk from construction-related effects, but may also gain the benefits of
employment or of providing goods or services during the construction period, which may
contribute to their economic wellbeing. Key impacts are discussed in this section and include
road safety risks from traffic hazards, employment and enterprise opportunities, disturbances to
110
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
lifestyle and culture from an influx of migrant workers and competition for community services
and natural resources. Nuisance issues and health impacts from air quality and noise
emissions are discussed separately in sections above.
The existing road and parts of the new road pass through villages with homes, schools and
businesses located close to the road. The safety of road users (pedestrians, motorbikes and
cars) is a priority during the construction period, particularly due to the heavy trucks that will
carry quarry aggregate to the dam sites. Other heavy traffic will carry machinery and equipment
from elsewhere in Java. The other significant effect is the traffic noise.
Road safety and noise mitigation structures and design responses are key parts of the Access
Road Construction Environmental Management Plan, which includes:
Restricting construction traffic movements during the times that children are travelling to
and from school, and providing of traffic management people to direct traffic during these
times.
Prohibiting heavy traffic after daylight hours.
Requiring pilot vehicles for large / oversize vehicles.
Identifying site access routes for vehicles and installing safety signage along the main
roads at regular intervals.
Education programs with schools and the community.
Communicating the forecast traffic movements regularly with the community.
Driver education programs.
Implementing a complaints record and action plan process.
The road design considerations, heavy traffic restrictions and management, and educational
programs, will all contribute to safer roads, minimizing the potential risks to other road users.
111
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
The main benefits of the project are cash employment and income earning opportunities
through provision of goods and services. Employment opportunities for local unskilled workers
will increase significantly during construction. It is estimated that 1500 laborers may be needed
through the project, and up to two thirds will be unskilled positions that could be drawn from the
local population. The landowners and other residents in the area have asked for first preference
for jobs, particularly the unskilled positions. Employment will be managed by the contractors
and they will be required to have an office where jobs can be advertised and locals can seek
work.
There will be a temporary surge in economic activities during the construction phase, with new
markets and the provision of services such as accommodation, shops, vehicle rental and
material supplies to meet the needs of workers and their families.
Both employment and enterprise activities are expected to raise local incomes from the non-
agricultural sector and could have an important (short term) effect on welfare and poverty
reduction. With increased cash income the families are expected to improve their standard of
living in terms of housing, household goods and appliances, tools and implements, education,
sanitation and hygiene, etc. There is also value in the opportunity to learn and improve skills.
A potential risk is the distortion of labor within the home or on the farm, particularly for those that
are not involved in construction.
There is a risk of community disruption and insecurity from the inundation of workers for the
duration of construction. This typically occurs when traditional or religious customs and
practices are not observed by the migrant workers, and the presence of relatively highly paid
workers residing in a society with a more narrow range of income distribution. Crime and social
nuisances and disruption can also be anticipated between the resident and migrant population.
In situations with large numbers of migrant workers entering a community, increased health-
related issues are anticipated, such as sexually transmitted diseases and other communicable
diseases. Both the residents and the workers are at risk from the exposure to new diseases.
Work force disruptions such as these are not common-place in Indonesia. Primarily this is
because there is a large local workforce, and / or migrant workers are Indonesian and practice
the same customs as the host communities. However, in the case that foreigners may form part
of the workforce, work force inductions and management are proposed to assist with
assimilation and understanding of the host communities. The contractors shall provide training
on communicable diseases. Mitigation of the potential effects of the workforce will be managed
through the Construction and Workers Camp Management Plan.
For the households in the host communities that will not be resettled, there may be an anxious
and disruptive period during the resettlement where services and religious and community
facilities are lost or moved and employment or enterprise opportunities change. Furthermore,
112
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
during significant land clearance and reservoir preparation activities the access to resources
such as the productive forest or river environments, or access to particular walking or motorbike
routes, including river crossings, may change or be removed permanently. All of these issues
require consideration, and ongoing communication and management between PLN, the
Contractor and the community, during the construction process, using the LARAP process as a
mechanism for consultation and compensation (if relevant). Allowing access to the project
office by any person in the community, and providing a complaints service, will help to facilitate
any problem solving.
An example is the replacement of swing bridges with permanent bridges across the lower
reservoir, to keep communities connected. The timing of construction should be done in a
manner avoid any loss of connectivity during replacement, and the Contractor should
communicate all changes of access with the community well ahead of the construction program
to address any issues at that time.
It is not anticipated that there will be any significant impacts from the influx of workers on the
ability of locals to maintain access to social services and infrastructure. Contractors shall
provide potable water, sanitation, power supply and other essential infrastructure, along with
health and worshipping facilities. The local people should benefit from providing services such
as rental vehicles and shops. Work force inductions and management are proposed to reduce
the likelihood of workers hunting, harvesting, fishing and otherwise using natural resources from
private or public land. All mitigation measures will be included in the Construction and Workers
Camp Management Plan.
Construction activities are not anticipated to affect local water supplies, and river access should
be maintained at all times during construction except at the construction zones in the Cirumamis
and Cisokan Rivers. Water availability to The Cihea Irrigation Scheme will not be affected
during construction.

The Operational Environmental Management Plan (with sub-plans) is the key tool to assist PLN
to implement the proposed mitigation measures during this phase, as part of the overarching
Upper Cisokan Hydropower Scheme Environmental Management Plan (Refer Section 13).
References to other construction-related sub-plans are made as required below.
Reservoir filling will occur during the rainy season (December to May). Using the annual
average river flow, reservoir filling will take approximately 92 days, or three months (refer
Section 5.10). The actual time to fill will depend on the river flow conditions during the rainy
season (likely to be higher than the annual average river flow for much of the time) and the
residual flow discharge from the lower reservoir (likely to fluctuate over the filling period).
Discharges from the upper dam to the Cirumamis River, immediately downstream of the dam,
will be a minimum of 0.5m3/s. The rate of 0.5m3/s is the average annual flow for the Cirumamis
River. Discharges from the lower dam to the Cisokan River, immediately downstream of the
dam, will be maintained at a minimum of 7.0m3/s. This equates to approximately 50% of
average flow (14.9m3/s).
The potential impacts from retaining much of the river flow, reducing the downstream flow, and
creating a constant flow during this period are:
The primary mitigation measures will be to change the rate of discharges from the bottom
outlets periodically, to mimic natural fluctuations in river flow, and to delay the start of filling until
115
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
the first of the wet season freshes or floods have passed, therefore providing fish with the
signals required to start the breeding process.
To avoid „flat lining‟ the Cirumamis River flow by discharging a constant minimum flow, the
bottom valve of the upper dam will be adjusted periodically (at least every 10 – 14 days, and if
possible coinciding with a natural fresh or flood), to increase the discharge to the maximum
outlet capacity of 0.96m3/s, for periods lasting a minimum of two days. This will provide a small
„flush‟ in the river, and minimize the risk of drying out riparian habitat or the creation of large
algal growths. This water would be captured in the lower reservoir so that there would be no net
loss to the pumped storage system from adjusting this flow.
To mitigate the potential „flat lining‟ impact on river habitat and biodiversity in the Cisokan River,
the bottom outlet of the lower reservoir will be adjusted periodically (at least every 10 – 14 days
and if possible coinciding with a natural fresh or flood) to increase the discharge to the
maximum outlet capacity of 13m3/s, for periods lasting a minimum of one day, to provide a
„fresh‟ to the river.
By increasing the rate of discharge from the lower dam periodically, the filling process will be
prolonged by a number of days, but the entire filling duration will still be achieved within one wet
season6.
Monitoring of water quality, fish and river habitat will be undertaken prior to filling and during
filling, to measure any impacts and to change the residual flow discharge arrangement if
required. Flow management, water quality and habitat monitoring during inundation will be
documented in detail in the Operational Environmental Management Plan. With these
measures in place, the potential impacts on the in-stream biodiversity should be minimized.
The potential impacts on downstream river uses in the Cisokan River include:
The availability of water to the Cihea Irrigation Scheme should not be impacted during the
inundation phase. The river will have a reduced flow, but the lower dam will maintain a
minimum release of 7m3/s which will ensure the required flow of 6m3/s is available for the
irrigation scheme. No other downstream users have been documented through the consultation

Based on average hydrological data summarized in 7.11.
116
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
process to date for this project, however there are likely to be many small users who rely on the
Cisokan River for irrigation supplies, stock drinking water, and for fishing and transport. These
users may not require large volumes of water, but their access to water may be affected, for
example by water supply channels drying up.
All downstream warning signals / sirens for flooding or emergencies will be operational prior to
inundation and will be used during inundation when necessary (refer to Section 12.10).
Prior to inundation, PLN will communicate with and inform all downstream river users,
downstream to, and including, the farmers in the Cihea Irrigation Scheme, about the changes to
river flows during inundation. This consultation should provide opportunities for any people to
raise issues and for PLN and the community to work together to find suitable solutions prior to
the start of filling. The process should be documented in the Social and Community sub-plan to
the Operational Environmental Management Plan.
Prior to filling, access to the river beds and the cleared reservoir areas will be prohibited. The
potential impacts on the local people from losing access to the rivers along the length of the
lower and upper reservoirs are discussed in Section 12.11.
As a consequence of the creation of the lower reservoir, four Cisokan River bridges will be
permanently removed. The potential impacts on local people from the change in access
between communities are discussed in Section 12.12.

12.1 Introduction
This section discusses the potential impacts from the operation of the pumped storage scheme
on the following:
energy benefits,
changes to hydrology downstream of the scheme, changing water availability, flood
flows and low flows,
reduction in sediment movement through the river systems,
water quality within the reservoirs and downstream of the scheme,
changes to river, riparian and land-based ecology and biodiversity,
land instability around the perimeter of the reservoirs,
greenhouse gas emissions,
changes to the availability of water to downstream uses,
an influx of settlers in the area and along the access road,
changes to the connectivity of communities across the lower reservoir, and
electro-magnetic frequency interference and health impacts.
The Operational Environmental Management Plan (and the following subplans) is the key tool to
assist PLN to implement the proposed mitigation measures during this phase, as part of the
overarching Upper Cisokan Hydropower Scheme Environmental Management Plan (Refer
Section 13).
118
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
Sub-plans include:
The energy benefits to the Java Bali network are detailed in Section 2.4.
12.3 Hydrology
Unlike conventional hydro schemes, a pumped storage scheme only cycles water between
reservoirs and there is no net downstream discharge when generating electricity. To maintain
the capacity within the pumped storage system, the scheme is designed to pass excess water
downstream rather than store it within the reservoirs. So, as discussed in Section 5.11, most of
the water that flows into the two reservoirs will either be passed through the bottom outlet or
over the spillway so that the downstream hydrology will be very similar to the existing situation.
Some inflow will be captured to replenish evaporative losses. The required estimate of
17,000m3/day (0.196m3/s) will not have a noticeable effect on the downstream Cisokan River
during most flows with the possible exception of low flow periods. The impacts on flood flows
and low flows are discussed below, followed by a list of proposed mitigation measures.
There will be minor attenuation of flood flows depending on the timing of the flows with the
timing of the generation or pumping. As an example, the Detailed Design report (PLN/Newjec
Inc., 2002) demonstrates that for a 1/1000 return event flood in the Cisokan River (maximum
flow 840m3/s), the lower dam gates can be operated so that the peak flow is delayed by
approximately one hour, is sustained for eight hours (compared to approximately one hour), and
the natural river flow rate is restored approximately 10 hours following the peak flood (at
approximately 480m3/s).
The assessment of impacts on low flow periods is difficult with the available hydrological data.
With the available data, it appears that at times there may not be enough inflow to provide for
evaporative losses.
The estimated minimum mean monthly flow of Cirumamis River of 0.1m3/s combined with the
estimated minimum mean monthly flow Cisokan River of 0.1m3/s provides just enough water to
cover evaporative losses of 0.196m3/s. This indicates that if evaporative losses are replenished
119
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
during these flow conditions, the system inflow may not be sufficient to provide suitable residual
flow to maintain ecological systems or provide for downstream water uses.
To avoid these potential impacts, it is proposed to set a minimum discharge from the lower dam
of 0.2m3/s, and to maintain inflows with outflows in the upper dam. This will result in the
scheme loosing water to evaporation at times, until such time as the inflow increases. It is not
certain how often this may occur because of the lack of low flow analysis in the available
hydrological data.
Because of the data uncertainties, it is proposed to install flow monitoring equipment to obtain
real flow data and establish a more accurate low flow operational regime as soon as possible.
To ensure that the flow is maintained downstream as close as possible to natural flows, and to
protect the river ecosystem during extended periods of low flow, the following monitoring and
mitigation measures are proposed:
Monitor river flow upstream of the scheme (in the Cirumamis and Cisokan Rivers) and
water levels in the two reservoirs, on a continuous basis. Monitoring stations should be
installed as soon as possible to enable the longest possible record of flows.
Use the flow monitoring and water level data on a daily basis to adjust the bottom outlet
valves of both dams so that outflow is equal to inflow, minus the water retained to make
up evaporative losses.
Use water from the lower reservoir to top up the upper reservoir during low flow periods,
to ensure a natural flow regime (where inflow equals outflow) is maintained downstream
of the upper dam at all times.
Provide a minimum flow from the lower dam of 0.2m3/s, until an alternative flow suitable
to the river ecosystem and flow regime is determined from the new monitoring stations.
Survey low flow conditions in the Cirumamis and Cisokan Rivers, to understand the
potential biodiversity impacts of further reducing the wetted areas during dry periods.
Consider the results in the setting of any future minimum flows.
Educate downstream users regarding the potential for attenuation of flood flows, flood
emergency procedures, and regarding the low flow regime.
The Operational Environmental Management Plan will include these minimum mitigation
measures, detailed procedures for collecting and analyzing flow data, and the setting of
minimum downstream flows from both dams. Further details on emergency management are
described in Section 5.11.4.

Water quality is currently moderate to poor due to land use practices, water uses and
discharges in the catchments. Any further decline in water quality could impact on in-stream
ecology and downstream water uses.
Water quality changes are likely to occur following inundation and operation. Initially BOD5,
COD and nutrient concentrations may be elevated, and dissolved oxygen concentrations
lowered, due to the decomposition of any vegetation that remained following reservoir clearance
and releases from the inundated soil. It is also likely that the shoreline sediments will be
disturbed during the daily filling and emptying of the reservoirs for some time after inundation,
creating a turbid environment at the edges. However, a series of mitigation measures are
proposed to reduce the potential impacts of the reservoirs on water quality, and in some cases
may improve water quality:
Ongoing water quality monitoring is proposed in the Environmental Management Plan, and the
objective should be to maintain existing water quality. Any issues of declining water quality as a
result of the pumped storage scheme should be addressed through adaptive management of
the reservoir operations, for example erosion and sediment control in the greenbelt and
watershed, aeration and dredging.
The two dams will create a barrier to natural sediment movement. Some suspended sediment
will be passed through the bottom outlets and continue downstream, however the majority of the
bed load will not be moved. The primary impact will be that the river will have increased energy
to move bed-load downstream of the lower dam in the Cisokan River. This is likely to result in
some changes to river morphology, primarily erosion of beds and banks, and alterations to river
121

channels within the river bed that may not have occurred previously. At the most serious, could
be the loss of private land adjacent to the river. The impacts have not been modeled, but
adaptive management by PLN during the scheme operation is recommended, through the
Operational Environmental Management Plan, using the following process:
Surveying the downstream riverbed and banks at key locations, every 4-5 years for
changes river morphology.
Investigate complaints from downstream landowners and river users.
Based on surveys and / or complaints, adjust discharge flows, and otherwise consider
other management methods with dam operations, or commission further research and
study into options to mitigate the changes to channels, banks etc.
The secondary impact is the contribution of sediment to the reservoir environments. To reduce
the potential for the contribution of additional sediment into the catchments, the identified
landslide areas in the upper reservoir will be stabilized through engineering works prior to
reservoir filling, reducing the potential for major earth movements and sediment discharges.
Greenbelt revegetation and management will also reduce the potential for erosion and sediment
discharges in the immediate catchment.
PLN should also investigate options for contributing to watershed management and erosion
control in the Upper Cisokan catchments.
Fish species that rely on swift, clear flowing waters for habitat and spawning will have their
range reduced following inundation. The direct loss of habitat will include several kilometers of
upland „riffle, run, pool‟ habitat. The upstream and side catchments are available as possible
alternative refuge. The reservoir will provide habitat for fish that can adapt to lake
environments, including the carp, tilapia and barb species.
The onset of the high flows at the beginning of the rainy season produces signals for many fish
species to spawn. Because the natural flow regime of the rivers should be near to natural,
particularly at average and high flows, these signals should not be disrupted by the scheme.
Because the reservoir environments are not suitable for aquaculture, local communities do not
have a substitute for wild fish. For this reason, and to maintain biodiversity within the Cisokan
River, it is considered appropriate to periodically monitor fish presence / absence and fish
population numbers. Where a decline in a food species or a substantial change in fish
communities is identified, mitigation measures should be explored, such as the introduction of
other food species, or capture and release of species up and downstream of the dams. Details
of aquatic biodiversity monitoring should be detailed in the Biodiversity Management Plan.
Riparian river habitat will also be lost along the length of the rivers that will be inundated. This
habitat is important for amphibians, reptiles and some birds. This will not be replaced by the
reservoir, because water levels will vary so dramatically over short periods of time due to the
nature of the pumped storage operation that the riparian areas will be inhabitable. These
species may find alternative habitat in the side streams and upper tributaries.
122
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
Mitigation measures may include enhancing the side stream habitats within the greenbelt areas.
Further measures may be established through the adaptive management program detailed in
the Biodiversity Management Plan. Biodiversity monitoring before and after the scheme is
operational, along the main stem and tributaries of the Cisokan River, will provide some
evidence regarding the changes in riparian biodiversity, and signal potential mitigation
measures to prevent significant losses / changes.
Once the reservoirs have been filled, the remnant of secondary growth forest will be located on
the southern margin of the lower reservoir, and will extend through the greenbelt up the
Cirumamis River catchment. The inhabitants of the forest are potentially at risk from the
scheme once operational, due to the flooding of the adjacent river valleys and the improved
access to the area from the new road.
As discussed in Section 10.3, without further assessment of the viability of the habitat, and the
range, ecosystem niches, and viability of the populations of species, the potential impacts are
difficult to predict. Particular questions are whether this habitat or the populations of species are
self-sustaining and would continue to be productive and viable without any disturbances or
intervention, and what type of protection or mitigation is required to ensure the sustainability of
the habitat or its inhabitants.
The objective is to avoid the loss of functioning forest habitat, and minimise the loss of
individuals or populations of species that are endangered, threatened or vulnerable.
However, selecting the most suitable protection and enhancement measures depends on the
characteristics and vulnerability of the remnant. Because this information is currently unknown,
an adaptive management approach is recommended. A Biodiversity Management Plan will be
used as the delivery tool as part of the Environmental Management Plan, and will outline the
key steps. In summary the plan will cover:
Further monitoring and assessment of the ecosystem and species to determine the
sustainability of both, and the interconnections between species, the forest and adjacent
habitats (such as the rivers and plantation forests). This includes characterising fauna
populations (numbers, ages, reproductive success), their habitat requirements, home range,
and ecosystem niches, and the health of the forest, including evidence of self regeneration.
Evaluating the current connections and links to other habitats.
123
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
Determining the opportunities for improving habitat sustainability at the site, by replanting at
the edges, or creating corridors to other habitats (in addition to the replanting of the
greenbelts).
Evaluating the management requirements to sustain and protect the habitat and
endangered species from hunting and logging, including determining land ownership
structures and other legal protection methods.
Determining the opportunities and risks of relocating individuals and populations, including
the likelihood of success from capture and release programs, and the availability of suitable
alternative habitat / communities.
Developing an action plan to implement the most appropriate management method(s):
protection, enhancement, or relocation.
Ongoing monitoring to measure success or inform future management decisions.
Whatever the outcome of this methodical approach, the greenbelt strips around each reservoir
will be replanted with local species as part of the reservoir protection and security measures,
and will have the potential to provide additional range and habitat to local fauna once
established.
The adaptive management approach, together with managing the greenbelt as additional
habitat, will contribute three key outcomes to effectively achieving the mitigation objective:
The current characteristics of the remnant and the viability of the populations of
endangered species will be better understood;
Adjacent land owned by PLN will be used to enhance habitat availability; and
The overall management methods will be targeted to the specific vulnerabilities and
needs of the existing biodiversity.
Land stability has been recognized as a potential issue, and the engineered stabilization works
have been recommended to avoid landslides in the upper reservoir (Section 5.8.3). Routine
monitoring of land stability is recommended in the Operational Environmental Management
Plan, with engineering solutions implemented where risks are identified.
Groundwater levels are anticipated to rise with the reservoir level. To assess whether this will
impact on domestic water supplies, septic tanks or building stability, water level and water
quality monitoring of at least two domestic groundwater wells, for at least two years following
inundation, is recommended in the Operational Environmental Management Plan. Along with a
complaints process, the monitoring should identify any adverse impacts, and alternative water
supplies, sanitary systems or other solutions should be provided by PLN in such cases.
124
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
In the last few years the question of the potential impact of climate change on hydropower
production has received growing attention, particularly in the high alpine regions (central
Europe, Nepal)7 and in regions where hydro projects are directly fed by glacier and their
glacial lakes (High Andes, Himalayas, European Alps).8 Climate changes may increase the
river runoff in the short and mid terms but decrease the water availability in the long run.
However, the Upper Cisokan Project is in tropical area and none of its watershed is snow-
fed. The general conclusion of studies for such tropical and sub-tropical watersheds is that
climate change may not significantly change the annual water availability in general, but will
lead to an intensification of storms, and hence intensification of runoff (higher flood flows) in
the wet season, and less precipitation in the dry season.
Currently, no impact assessments of climate change on pumped storage hydro power plants
are known to be conducted. However, general conclusions of studies for such tropical and
sub-tropical watersheds can be drawn when analyzing the climate change impacts on the
Upper Cisokan Project.
Although the effects of various climate change scenarios on hydropower vary by region, wet
tropical areas such as in Indonesia are likely to see an increase in annual precipitation and
average temperature. Such changes could result in:
frequent flooding;
variability in power generation;
landslides;
sedimentation; and
increased evaporation from reservoirs;
Flooding
Rivers to both upper and lower reservoirs are relatively small. The average mean monthly
flow of Cisokan River to the lower reservoir is around 15.3 m3/s and the average mean
monthly flow of Cirumanmis River to the upper reservoir is only 0.5 m3/s. The design flood
flows for both lower and upper dams are 1,100 m3/s and 230 m3/s with a probability of
occurrence of 1/10,000. In addition, a dam safety plan has been developed for the project
and will be implemented during the operation of the project. It is expected that the climate
changes impacts on flooding will not impose the project to significant risks.

125

Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
hydropower schemes, a pumped storage scheme only cycles water between reservoirs.
After impoundment, it will only require some water flow to compensate evaporation losses.
As the areas of the two reservoirs at high water levels are only around 3.4 km2, the amount
of water required to compensate evaporation losses is estimated at 17,000 m3/day (0.196
m3/s) and the amount of water required can be filled by inflows from Cisokan River to the
lower reservoir and the Cirumamis River to the upper reservoir. Therefore, the variability of
water availability that may be caused by climate changes will not have noticeable impacts on
the ability of power generation of the project.
Land Stability
Intensification of storms may cause landslides. The land stability has been recognized as a
potential issue, and the engineered stabilization works have been recommended to avoid
landslides in the upper reservoir (Section 5.8.3). Routine monitoring of land stability is
recommended in the Operational Environmental Management Plan, with engineering
solution implemented where risks are identified. Sedimentation Increased and intensified
rainfalls caused by climate changes can affect sedimentation in the project areas. To reduce
the potential for the contribution of additional sediment into the catchments, the identified
landslide areas in the upper reservoir will be stabilized through engineering works prior to
reservoir filling, reducing the potential for major earth movements and sediment discharges.
Greenbelt reveggetation and management will also reduce the potential for erosion and
sediment discharges in the immediate catchment areas. In addition, PLN will work with the
related government agencies and local communities to develop and implement a watershed
management plan in the project catchments..
The potential impacts on downstream users include the changes to water availability and the
risks from changes in flood flows.
During the majority of flow conditions, the scheme will pass through all inflow except for the
„top up water‟ for evaporative losses, and during low flow periods the scheme will discharge
a minimum of 0.2m3/s. Water flow recording stations will be able to provide instantaneous
information about the availability of river flow and discharge flow from the hydropower
scheme. This information can be used to demonstrate that PLN is discharging at the rate of
outflow and ensuring as much water as possible is released downstream.
Access to water by the Cihea Irrigation Scheme downstream should not be impacted by the
operation of the hydropower scheme. There will remain times when the natural river flow
cannot provide enough water for the irrigation scheme, as is currently the case.
No other downstream users have been documented through the consultation process to
date for this project, however there are likely to be many small users who rely on the
Cisokan River for irrigation supplies, stock drinking water, and for fishing. Similar to the
irrigation scheme, these users are not expected to be affected because of the small volume
of „top up‟ water that the scheme will consume compared to average river flows, and the
minimum flows that will be discharge during low flow periods.
All downstream users will be consulted prior to inundation regarding the expected changes
to river flows, how the scheme will be operated and how inflows and discharges will be
126
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
monitored. Particular attention will be given to operations during low flow periods and the
potential impacts on other river users. This should be documented in the Operational
Environmental Management Plan.
The possible co-incidence of flood inflow and generation necessitates flood warning safety
measures downstream for the purpose of increasing the safety to local people. While the
attenuation of flood flows is not as significant as conventional reservoirs due to the lack of
storage, the peaks will be delayed and be longer than locals may have experienced prior to
the scheme. The emergency warning systems are detailed in Section 5.11.4.
All downstream warning signals / sirens for flooding or emergencies will be operational prior
to inundation and will be used during operation whenever necessary. All procedures will be
documented in the Operational Environmental Management Plan.
All downstream users will be consulted prior to inundation regarding the expected changes
to river flows, how the flood warning systems will work and what emergency procedures they
should follow once a warning alarm has been triggered. This should be documented in the
Operational Environmental Management Plan.
There will be a loss of river and land access within the reservoir areas to the people who will
remain in the Cisokan area. Prior to filling, access to the river beds and the cleared reservoir
areas will be prohibited. The reservoir environments will be very hazardous during filling and
operation, due to the steep, un-vegetated shorelines and the rapid rise and fall of the water
level. There is a risk of drowning or injury from people who attempt to access the reservoir.
The reservoir security and protection measures are described in Section 5.11.2 to ensure
that the public are not at risk from rising water levels during initial filling or during operation.
Those people that remain will no longer be able to fish, swim, bath or use the river at the
location of the upper and lower reservoirs for washing and other activities. It will not be
possible to instead use the reservoir environment because of safety issues.
Alternatives to sanitation have been proposed, such as ensuring that all houses / villages in
the area have access to sanitary systems (ie ablutions that are connected to septic tank
treatment systems). This will allow people to bath and wash clothes (etc.) in the village
rather than in the river.
The alternative fishing and swimming locations will be upstream of the lower reservoir, and
downstream of the lower dam, and in the side tributaries and smaller streams of the lower
reservoir. Motorbikes may be needed to travel to these sites. The changes to fish catch
effort will be monitored along with fish counts as part of the Biodiversity Management Plan.
The alternatives are considered adequate to mitigate the impacts on lifestyles and
livelihoods, however ongoing consultation, and a complaints process, should ensure that any
individual needs are addressed through the project.
127
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
Community connectivity via the traditional swing bridge routes across the Cisokan River will
no longer be possible however the new bridges (and associated access paths / roads) will
provide alternative access across the lower reservoir. The new bridge to connect the
villages will be built and operational prior to inundation, to avoid the potential for community
isolation from the markets, schools and communities to the west.
The upgrade to the existing road, and the construction of the new road, will assist the local
population with better access to markets and services outside of the area to the east.
It is possible that the new road will increase settlement in the area. After the Saguling Dam
road was constructed, many households moved into the area and occupied road edges
owned by PLN. The potential for adverse impacts on the existing communities is low, as the
area is already heavily developed and populated, and land tenure is in community or private
ownership. Land would need to be purchased, or a lease agreement entered into, in order
for migrants to settle. A policy on roadside settlement should be developed by PLN (as road
owners) to ensure that this activity does not create an adverse impact on the existing
communities.
There is the potential that people living or working near the new transmission lines will be
impacted by the electro-magnetic fields from the transmission lines, either for health reasons
or by interference with electrical equipment. Electro-magnetic field (EMF) is well regulated,
with the designated free space confirming to Indonesian standards. The Transmission Line
Management Plan provides measures to monitor the EMF regularly to confirm that the
transmission lines are within the national emissions standards. Complaints regarding real or
perceived health issues and other impacts can be addressed through PLN‟s complaints
process.

Upper Cisokan pumped storage hydro power plant will create upper and lower reservoirs
which relatively small in area and volume point of view. There is a potency of both reservoirs
to induce impact of waterborne diseases (dysentery, cholera, typhoid fever, etc) into
surrounding inhabitant when the people uses the reservoir water for domestic use. Based on
AMDAL study, diarrhea and typhoid fever are among the top ten of diseases found in the
project area. So, without any mitigation effort, the reservoirs will be unsafe for use by the
community in terms of waterborne diseases potency
People will be prohibited from the reservoirs and designated greenbelt areas around the
margins, to protect their safety from high fluctuation of water level (the operating range in the
upper reservoir is 19m, and 4.5m in the lower reservoir). The project will also serve a
provision of several clean water and toilet facilities for inhabitant surrounding the reservoirs.
This will eliminate the use of reservoir water by the surrounding community for domestic use,
thus reducing the potential spread of waterborne diseases.
Animals which use the water for their lifecycles might be induced by the reservoir such as
mosquito which transmitted malaria and snails which transmitted schistosomes. Fortunately,
those waterborne diseases are reported uncommon in those areas. This project is relatively
close to the Cirata Reservoir (created in 1987) and Saguling reservoir (created in 1985)
which have no reported those kind of diseases recently. The high fluctuation of water level
and high water turn over in daily basis will also the controlled (deterrent) condition for those
disease transmitted or vector animals.

This project is located in villages with agriculture and production forest area where there is
no ongoing major project in the surrounding catchment area. The settlements are found in
the villages across the upper and lower catchment including in the project areas. No major
road found in this area, some unpaved or simple pavement road are found to connect
villages. The distance from Bandung City (3million inhabitants) is about 60km, Cimahi town
(0.5million inhabitants) is 50km and Cianjur town (2million inhabitant) is about 40km and the
distance of harbor is about 200km away.
This project is located in Cisokan river tributary of Citarum river where cascade of
hydropower plants have been in operation. The upstream are Saguling plant (completed
1985), and following Cirata plant (completed 1987) in the middle and Jatiluhur plant
(completed in 1962) in the downstream. The installed capacity and area of reservoir are
Saguling (700MW and 5600ha), Cirata (1000MW and 6300ha) and Jatiluhur (187MW and
8300ha) respectively.
Most of the project footprint will take place in the Cisokan river catchment which flow into
Cirata reservoir. During the flow into Cirata reservoir, the water of Cisokan river is tapped for
Cihea irrigation of 5,500ha to irrigate Bojongpicung and Ciranjang subdistrict areas. Part of
the access road and quarry site of this project is located the catchment of Saguling. There
are 7km of existing access road and about 15km (out of 27km) of new access road located
in the Saguling catchment area.
The Saguling, Cirata and Jatiluhur reservoirs have intensive fish cage culture industry which
operated by surrounding people. Recent yearly fish production of Saguling, Cirata and
Jatiluhur are about 18,000ton, 78,000ton and 33,000ton respectively. Jatiluhur reservoir also
serves as raw drinking water for Jakarta and irrigation of 242000ha agriculture field in
Purwakarta, Bekasi dan Karawang regencies.
b) Cumulative impact
1) Fishery The Lower and Upper reservoir will not be allowed and suitable for
fisheries/aquaculture due to safety concerns. No fisheries production
will be the benefit for local people due to presence of this reservoir.
There is insignificant fish catch in existing river and this project will be
insignificant affect the fisheries. The cumulative impact on fisheries is
considered neutral.
2) Agriculture 775.46ha of agriculture land and production forest will be converted into
reservoir, structures and non agriculture areas. The agriculture
130
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
3) Population With the assumption that the affected people will move into the same
density villages, it is estimated that population density in the affected villages
will slightly increase by about 6.5% but it is insignificant for the whole
region. There is no major project that will use villages land, so the
cumulative negative impact on population density is considered
insignificant.
4) Water balance In operation stage, during the high water flows the power plant will give
and Irrigation positive impact on the downstream but due its reservoir volume, the
impact is considered insignificant.
During extremely low river water discharges, there will be potentially
negative impact on the downstream. With the mitigation to release of
0.2m3/sec to downstream through bottom outlet the negative impact will
be overcome.
There is no major project that will use river water in between of lower
dam and Cihea irrigation weir, so the cumulative negative impact on
irrigation is considered insignificant. There are also no impact on Cirata
hydro power plant.
5) Global and local Loss of biomass due to vegetation clearance that causes the lost of
climate carbon sink and CO2 absorption, it will generate insignificant impact
since the affected area are relatively small areas.
The generation of this power plant will reduce the fossil fuel combustion
but it will be balanced by the pumping period that uses the energy
generated by fossil fuel combustion power plant.
The cumulative impact caused by the presence of water evaporation
from the reservoir will cause insignificant impact on regional climate.
6) Transportation During construction period, the construction vehicles will use national
highway, the existing previously Saguling access road and the project
developed access road. The cumulative negative impact of construction
goods and materials transportation will be insignificant and tolerable.
In Operation stage, better road facilities to connect subdistricts of West
Bandung and subdistricts of Cianjur will be available. Since it will be
benefit for the society in Cianjur area, Government of Cianjur will build
road to connect the road. Social and economic activities will benefit
from it. The cumulative impact will be positive
7) Erosion and During construction period, the Saguling reservoir will be affected by
sedimentation the development part of access road. The erosion and sedimentation
will be experienced by Cijambu tributaries of Saguling reservoir. The
131

9) Services During construction, about US$250millions will be spent for local goods
and services, so it will be benefit for local economy and society. There
is no major project will be built in surrounding project area, so
cumulative impact from other projects/activities may not contributed
significant addition.
In Operation stage, some services and tourism will increase since It will
attract people to visit the area. With the availability of better road and
power plant, cumulative impact on services will be better, although
might not be significant.
10) Public health During construction, in situations with large numbers of migrant workers
entering a community, increased health-related issues are anticipated,
such as sexually transmitted diseases and other communicable
diseases. Both the residents and the workers are at risk from the
exposure to new diseases. There is no major project will be built in
surrounding project area, and by mitigation measures of public health
conducted by the project, cumulative impacts of it will be tolerable.
In Operation stage, EMF caused by transmission line although it will be
safe for the society (based on WHO standard) there will be concerns
raised by some people. But by routine monitoring and communication,
this issues will be solved. There is cumulative impacts on this issues.
OVERALL ISSUES The overall cumulative impacts of this project will be manageable and
the residual impact will be tolerable.

13.1 Overview
The Upper Cisokan Hydropower Scheme Environmental Management Plan is the key tool
for managing impacts during construction, inundation and operation of the scheme and
ancillary infrastructure such as the access road and transmission line. There are numerous
sub-plans to address specific activities, which must remain consistent with the overarching
project EMP.
The overall hierarchy is shown in Figure 23. The plans for each phase are discussed in the
following sections.
134
Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydro Electric Power Plant
Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
The construction-related environmental management plans are shown in Figure 24, and
include any pre-construction activities and ancillary infrastructure. In addition to the sub-
plans, there are procedures relating to EMP implementation, and quality assurance.
Environmental monitoring during pre-construction and construction phase is also
documented in the EMP.
135

The Operational Environmental Management Plan (OEMP) is the single overarching plan
that will control all other plans and programs during inundation and operation. The hierarchy
is shown in Figure 24. In addition to the sub-plans, there are procedures relating to OEMP
implementation, and quality assurance, including a comprehensive environmental monitoring
program.

14 CONCLUSIONS
The Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydropower Project is designed to meet the growing
peak demands in the Java Bali network system. The development of this hydropower
source has a number of benefits for the network, these include:
The reduced reliance on expensive oil to meet peak demand.
The ability to use the base load more efficiently, during off peak periods.
To provide frequency control in place of the Cirata Hydropower Scheme; this can
then be operated more efficiently.
To provide immediate back up to the grid from a failure at another power station or
transmission line route.
Several EIA studies have been completed since project inception. This consolidated EIA
has combined the results of the EIA studies, and two further technical studies completed in
2009.
The following conclusions on the scheme can be made, taking into account the scheme
design, sensitivity of the environment, the needs of the host communities and the predicted
impacts and mitigation measures:
Resettlement
There will be inundation or occupation of approximately 775.46ha of land, which will include
houses, settlements, graves, mosques, productive land, subsistence farms, fish ponds and
other small enterprises. Approximately 2201 households affected by the project. The
process of resettlement and other social impact or compensation issues will be managed
under a Land Acquisition and Resettlement Action Plan (LARAP).
During construction an influx of up to 1,500 workers into the area is anticipated to affect
traditional village life to those in the host communities that will not be resettled. Common
construction-related issues such as noise, traffic hazards, dust, and disturbances and health
issues from workers are anticipated, however locals will also benefit from jobs and a demand
in local enterprise / services. Controls on workers behavior, workers camp management,
construction methods, programming and traffic management, as well as a comprehensive
community consultation program will assist to minimize construction-related impacts. The
provision of a complaints and grievance process will help to ensure that issues are dealt with
as they arise.
137

Biodiversity impacts
Endangered species and the remnant forest are at risk from construction activities and the
changes to the surrounding land uses. Further information is required about the habitat
requirements, range and sustainability of the forest and the populations of endangered
species, and a Biodiversity Managements Plan will be followed to identify the best
management options based on the results of further investigations. The aim of the greenbelt
restoration is to provide additional habitat to this remnant.
During construction, discharges of sediment will affect water quality and stream bed pattern.
This will be for the duration of the construction period, and may result in river bed
sedimentation and / or loss of water clarity. Erosion, sediment treatment systems, and
controls on works in the wetted area of the rivers beds and controls on other discharges, will
mitigate potential effects as far as practical.
During inundation, the hydrological regime in the Cirumamis and Cisokan Rivers will be
temporarily affected while water is captured to fill the reservoirs. Based on estimates of
average flow conditions, and taking into account minimum flow releases, the scheme should
take approximately 92 days to fill. A minimum flow will be released from both dams to
maintain ecosystems downstream. To minimize any potential effects on river uses
downstream, filling will occur during the rainy season.
During operation, there should be only minor changes to the hydrological regime
downstream of the two dams, as the pumped storage scheme will not have the capacity to
store or attenuate flows. Outflows should match inflows as much as possible, to maintain
the active storage required for the pumped storage scheme. This will be part of standard
operational procedures, using bottom outlets and spillways. There will be some slight
attenuation of flood peaks, and there may be some smoothing of fresh flows during the dry
season. During the low flow periods, a minimum flow of 0.2m3/s will be discharged from
each dam, which may result in the scheme losing storage water until such time as higher
inflows are received.
Changes to erosion and deposition patterns are expected downstream in the Cisokan River
during operation, due to the reduced sediment load. Regular surveys will identify changes to
the river bed and erosion and flood risk and PLN will be responsible for addressing any
issues with downstream land owners and water users.
The operating drawdown range in the upper reservoir is 19m, and 4.5m in the lower
reservoir. The reservoirs will be unsafe for use by the community, or for commercial
ventures such as aquaculture. People will be prohibited from the reservoirs and designated
greenbelt areas around the margins, to protect their safety. Warning alarms will be raised
prior to generation or pumping, to warn of changing water levels. The greenbelts will be
restored with local vegetation to provide habitat for wild animals and will not be available for
settlement or leasing for agricultural purposes.

Consolidated Environmental Impact Assessment (Final)
Socio-economic benefits
The socio-economic benefits include the provision of cheaper peak load power and other
efficiencies in the Java-Bali network, the construction of a new road and bridges allowing
access to more remote hamlets and villages; and local economic benefits during the
construction phase (allocation of jobs and the provision of services).

required for the community, in coordination with the Bojong
Picung District and Sukaratu Village.
At the time of the mobilization of equipments and materials for
construction, the storage of equipments and materials should be
far enough away from the gravesite in order not to disturb public
funerals and visit activities.
Determination of the location for equipment and material storage
can be done together with Sukaratu village and the local
community in Bojong Picung District.
A temporary fence needs to be constructed between the cemetery
and the transmission lines in the construction phase.
If the mobilization of equipment and materials result in a
negative impact to society, such as the disruption of the
cemetery area and the activities of the visit, consultation
should be carried out. The consultation should be between PLN, or
a contractor appointed by PLN, and the community in Sukaratu
Village to discuss the best solution that benefits both parties
with the principle of a win-win solution.

The Conditions
A new bridge accessing Cianjur will be needed, because not all of
the people in Kp. Cipiring will be relocated. The local community
proposed to build a new alternative bridge connecting Cicadas
Village and Margaluyu Village in Kp Taritih in Upstream Cisokan(See
map).
New Alternative Route Location Between Kp. Taritih in Margaluyu Village and
Kp. Cipari in Cicadas Village
Bantar Picung Bridge is located in the Lower Dam area (Flooded Area),
precisely in Kp. Muara Ciawitali (RT 03 RW 10) Bojongsalam Village, in
the border region between West Bandung Regency and Cianjur Regency
(see on the Map).
Bantar Picung Bridge crosses Cisokan River and is 55 meters long and
1.5 meters wide. Areas to be inundated around Bantar Picung Bridge
are:
1
RW(Rukun Warga) is a group of several RTs(Rukun Tetanga). An RT (Rukun
Tetangga) is a group of several households in a hamlet.
Pamipiran Bridge crosses Cisokan River and is 63 meters long and 1.5
meters wide. Areas to be inundated around Pamipiran Bridge are:
Settlements are located approximately 100 meters from the
Pamipiran Bridge. Kp. Sindanghayu is the area to be inundated
in RT 02 RW 10 with 50 households or 200 people.
All of the Residents in the area will be relocated to Kp.
Cangkuang because of the fertile agricultural land. There is
property and Perhutani land in Kp. Cangkuang. Others will
relocate to Cianjur because they have family there. Near the
bridge, about 20 meters away, there are tombs to be
inundated.
The Conditions
Residents in Kp. Ciawitali and Kp. Sindanghayu (Pamipiran) should
be moved to another location. People in both hamlets near the
bridge are willing to be relocated. They are estimated to be 200
household.
Rongga District plans to move its residents who will be affected to
Bukit Jonggol Asri, as well as residents in Cicadas Village. Bukit
Jonggol Asri (BJA) is an alternative relocation place and is being
prepared by the Regional Government for affected communities. The
area prepared for relocation is 100 Ha (from a total land area of
1.237 Ha - see map below). However, the proposal from Rongga
Subdistrict has not been approved by the people who will be
relocated in Cicadas Village or Bojong Salam Village.
Langkob) with the total length of new roads equalling 10,000 meters
by 4 meters. Cicadas Village to Bojongsalam Village will be a total
length of 4,000 meters by 4 meters. With the development of road
infrastructure, Bojongsalam Village is expected to grow, as well as
the area of Bukit Jonggol Asri. Construction of this road is
intended as an alternative access route if bridges in Cicadas
Village and Bojongsalam Village are inundated. It will also provide
access to Rongga Subdistrict.
The Head of Bojongsalam suggested citizens access Cianjur area via
an alternative route from Kp. Langkob, Bojongsalam Village. The
route would go through Karangnunggal Village to Girimulya Village in
Cibeber District Cianjur Regency. Another alternative route proposed
by residents from Bojong Salam to Cianjur area (after Bantarhoream
is flooded) is from Kp. Cirumamis to Kp. Langkob, Kp. Cimarel, Kp.
Lembur Sawah, Kp. Cibubuay, Kp. Alun-Alun, and Sukarama Village with
a distance of 15 Km. But this route can not be constructed due to a
power station in Kp. Lembur, Sawah Sukaresmi Village. At the
operation stage this area will be closed to the public road.
A new alternative route to Cianjur region can be via three routes:
1) using the new alternative Cimonyet Bridge in Cicadas Village. 2)
Using a detour from Kp. Langkop or Kp. Cangkuang to Gununghalu
District (trough Cilanggari Village). From there people can
continue to Cianjur area, such as Sukarama Village, Karangnunggal
Village and Girimulya Village (see on the map). 3) Using the new
access road, which will be built by PLN to the reservoir location.
These three alternative routes are the only proposals for
alternative road access for the local community.

5.0 Description of the Environmental and Social Setting and Key Values ............................................. 4
1.0 Introduction
In order to meet growing peaking demands and to significantly improve reliability of the Java-Bali power
system, the state owned power company, PT Pelayanan Listrik Negara (PLN), is proposing a 1040MW
pumped storage hydroelectric power scheme in the Upper Cisokan catchment, West Java Province.
The Upper Cisokan Pumped Storage Hydroelectric Power Scheme comprises two reservoirs, each with an
active volume of 10,000,000m3. The upper reservoir will be 80ha when full, and the lower reservoir will
be 260Ha when full.
The upper reservoir discharges water to generate electricity during peak load. The stored water from the
lower reservoir is pumped to the upper reservoir during off peak demand, after 10-12pm daily, using
energy supply from the base load power plants. In addition, the proposed project will provide spinning
reserves and reactive power, as well as other auxiliary services to the power system. A pumped storage
scheme will allow more flexibility in the power network, and provide PLN with a cheaper method of
meeting daily peak loads and demand of auxiliary services.
500kv Transmission lines will convey electricity from the power station to the Java-Bali electricity
network. To the north, the scheme will connect to the Cibinong-Saguling line by two separate lines and
corridors. To the south, the scheme will connect to the Tasikmalaya-Depok line.
There will be inundation or occupation of approximately 820ha of land, which will include houses,
settlements, graves, mosques, productive land, subsistence farms, fish ponds and other small enterprises.
Approximately 1550 households require resettlement. No decision has been made regarding the location
of the resettlement area or areas.
This report provides the terms of reference for the Environmental Impact Assessment for the
resettlement area(s).
The executive summary should concisely discuss significant findings and recommended actions.
This section discusses the policy, legal, and administrative framework within Indonesia. This section
should also explain the relevant environmental requirements of any co-financiers and identify
relevant international environmental agreements to which Indonesia is a party.
The project description concisely describes the proposed project and its geographic, ecological, social,
and temporal context, such as:
(i) Number of households, businesses and other entities the will be located;
(ii) a flow chart of actions for the entire Resettlement Action Plan along with the detailed
budget, time frame and identification of responsibilities of each party;
(iii) Master Plan and detailed information on the layout of the houses, roads, public transport,
businesses, infrastructure (water, sewerage, electricity, telecommunications), schools,
health care centres, religious buildings, recreation areas, cemeteries etc.
(iv) Details on the source of fresh water supply, management of solid waste, treatment and
disposal of sewerage, treatment and disposal of stormwater, how traffic (including
pedestrians and public transport) will move around and to and from the site, work
opportunities and other details on infrastructure and services.
(v) Ancillary investments that may be required (e.g. access roads, power plants, water
treatment plants, sewerage treatment plants, electricity distribution lines).
(vi) If it is a (new or existing) dam, provide full description of dam and reservoir size and the
nature of the downstream river.
4.1 Project Site: Precise identification of the project’s geographical setting. Provide maps of the
resettlement area. These maps should include the following key environmental features:
A general lay-out two scale maps that include a general zone surrounding the project
(1:25000) and another project specific site (1:10000), or sketches, indicating:
o rivers and watersheds where the project will be developed;
o project proximity to protected areas, indigenous reserves, national parks and
forests, cultural heritage sites;
o human settlements, roads and existing infrastructure, noting distance in kilometres
from the resettlement sites to the nearest districts, towns and another nearby
human settlements;
o existing land uses and ownership (industry, agriculture, recreation, tourism,
residential etc);
4.2 Project Construction Methods and Schedule: The EIA should include a project schedule including the
following aspects of construction:
A schedule of all construction activities that include road construction, excavations, levelling
of land, land cleaning, house building, services installation etc;
Land acquisition plan of the total area that will be used for the project, including all civil
works;
A list of all equipment that will be used during the project’s construction;
Types of materials that will be for use during construction as well as necessary volume.
Where will the materials be obtained (borrow pits, river extraction,) and how will they be
transported to the project site and proposed sites for construction wastes (earth cuts,
construction waste); and,
The estimated number of workers that will be contracted at the site or outside the site,
during the construction period. Also, the size and location of any temporary or permanent
worker’s camp, food services (in-house, catering), and sanitary infrastructure for their
campsites.
5.0 Description of the Environmental and Social Setting and Key Values
This should provide an overview of existing environmental and social values / parameters present in the
project footprint, or the “baseline”.
4.1 Baseline data assesses the dimensions of the study area and describes relevant physical, biological,
and socioeconomic conditions, including any changes anticipated before the project commences. It also
takes into account current and proposed development activities within the project area but not directly
connected to the project. Data should be relevant to decisions about project location, design, operation,
or mitigation measures. The section indicates the accuracy, reliability, and sources of the data.

For each of the relevant matters listed above, the project's likely positive and negative impacts, in
quantitative terms to the extent possible, should be assessed.
This section also identifies mitigation measures and any residual negative impacts that cannot be
mitigated and should explore opportunities for environmental enhancement.
This section should identify and estimate the extent and quality of available data, key data gaps, and
uncertainties associated with predictions, and specifies topics that do not require further attention.
This section includes an overview of proposed mitigation and monitoring measures for each of the
areas identified during the baseline studies and impact assessment and in light of consultation
undertaken.
As with the existing environmental setting / baseline data, the discussion of environmental issues
should be correlated with those relevant issues identified at the screening stage. Each discussion
should conclude on the necessary mitigation, and compensatory measures or plans.
The following table provides guidance on the types of issues that should be considered as part of
mitigation and monitoring:
Natural Hazards All natural hazards risk should be evaluated including project location with
and respect to the natural vulnerability map for the area. The report should include
Vulnerability a description of all design, construction and operational measures that will be
implemented to reduce these risks.

Natural As noted, the EIA should specify the project's physical "footprint", i.e. the
Habitats surface area (ha or m2) and map locations of land to be cleared for the roads,
households, businesses and any other facilities as part of the resettlement area.
The EIA should describe the existing vegetative cover at the site, indicating
whether any highly localized or threatened ecosystems are present. Project
location with respect to protected areas in the local area should be described.
The EIA should also indicate whether the resettlement area is proposed within
existing or officially proposed protected areas. If so, the EIA should
(i) verify that the project sponsors have obtained official permission from
the relevant protected area management authority; and,
(ii) specify the corresponding planned mitigation or compensation
measures (including implementation schedule, budget, and institutional
responsibilities).
The EIA should indicate how many km of access road would need to be built or

If there are any significant road-related environmental issues, the EIA should
analyse alternative access road alignments; all proposed roads (along with other
project works) should feasibly be sited so as to avoid or minimize the potential
adverse environmental impacts (including loss and fragmentation of natural
habitats). Any new road works (if needed) should be engineered so as to avoid
the sedimentation or blockage of streams or other natural drainages.

clearance, waste management, workers camps etc.
Systematically compares feasible alternatives to the proposed resettlement site, technology (water
supply, wastewater etc), design, and operation--including the "without project" situation--in terms of
their potential environmental impacts; the feasibility of mitigating these impacts; their capital and
recurrent costs; their suitability under local conditions; and their institutional, training, and monitoring
requirements. For each of the alternatives, quantifies the environmental impacts to the extent possible,
and attaches economic values where feasible. States the basis for selecting the particular project design
proposed and justifies recommended emission levels and approaches to pollution prevention and
abatement.
All mitigation and compensation plans and activities should be included in a Construction Environmental
Management Plan (EMP) for the project. The CEMP should include:
The report should detail all environmental and social monitoring plans indicating: parameters,
frequency, reporting schedules, responsibility, and sources of funds. Appropriate parameters could
include: water quality, river flows and levels, ecological monitoring, social indicators, etc. This
section addresses mitigation measures, monitoring, and institutional strengthening (see Section 5).
