Some of the negative impacts are includes : (i) risks common to most construction activities, e.g., roads, walkways, information centers, pipelines, water and wastewater treatment works Loss of vegetation and topsoil from land clearing; (ii) population increase will impact on the additional land needs and potentially cause environmental damage; (iii) simplification of the permitting process, including for environmental permits, could be misinterpreted as providing short-cuts that impeded adequate review prior to approval, with the result that insufficient attention would be paid to EHS when new businesses develop; (iv) facilities constructed upon the recommendation of the sectoral master plans may have indirect or induced adverse impacts or cumulative impacts either not foreseen, not effectively managed, or both; (v) The development of SME business and business climate improvements, if not managed properly, could lead to the depletion of natural resources and potential increase of environmental pollution; (vi) small, local firms might have less access to government officials and be less aware of reforms, and therefore may not consider the possible benefits of the reforms for them; Some of the mitigation measures are includes : (i) implementation of those ESMPs though inclusion of mitigation measures in DEDs and construction contracts incorporating EHS Guidelines; (ii) environmental awareness to be included in relevant training, including relevant aspects of EHS Guidelines, including the industry sector guidelines for tourism and hospitality development; (iii) use relevant aspects of EHS Guidelines in formulating guidance to business license applicants and reviewers/approvers; (iv) improvement of environmental and social awareness in line with economic development; (v) The potential risks, opportunities and solution of this issue will be taken into account in the development scenarios, possibly with a later development phase to be implemented depending on the assessment of the ITMPs consultant and agreement between the RIDA and the Bank; (vi) preparation of social-related practical guidelines for the subproject proponent/local governments such as stakeholders’ engagement, livelihood restorations, implementation of free, prior and informed consultation (FPIC), etc.; (vii) Communication to the public on the simplification of procedures, requirements and related costs through appropriate media (websites, media, brochures, etc.).  Réduire
