1 INTRODUCTION

1. The India Infrastructure Finance Company Ltd (IIFCL) was constituted in 2006 with a mandate to
increase the availability of long term financing for public private partnership (PPP) infrastructure
projects in India. The IIFCL further revised its objectives in 2013, for strengthening its capacity for
infrastructure PPP financing through piloting instruments and implementation approaches.

2. Primarily, IIFCL focuses on two types of financing, direct financing (funding undertaken directly by
IIFCL to the developers during the construction stage) and post construction refinancing, also called the
“Takeout” financing. The two sectors pre-identified and agreed by IIFCL for “Takeout” financing entail
roads & port terminal.

3. The current assignment for preparation of Environmental and Social Due Diligence reports by
HaskoningDHV Consulting Private Limited (HDC) for a maximum of six sub-projects (Kakinada Deep
Water Port being one of them) acts as a groundwork (under the takeout financing component) ensuring
that there are no pending legacy issues or other reputational risks with regard to environmental and
social aspects.

4. The current draft environmental and social due diligence report presents the findings of the
appraisal for the first sub project i.e. Kakinada deep water port terminal1. The project details are
provided in the subsequent sections.

1.1 SUB PROJECT LOCAT ION & REG IONAL SETT INGS

5. Owing to its strategic location in the East Godavari district of Andhra Pradesh, Kakinada Deep
Water Port (KDWP) constitutes a part of Kakinada port (the second largest port in the state after
Vishakhapatnam). The Latitudinal and Longitudinal extent of the port entail 16°58’05.69’’N
to16°57.36.86”N and 82°16’56.82’’E to 82°16’50.97’’E respectively.

6. The port is well connected and accessible from all major Indian cities and enjoys multi-modal
connectivity by road, rail, air and pipelines (for liquid cargo). The nearest major settlement to the port is
Kakinada town at a distance of 10 km. The port is situated between Vishakhapatnam (170 km in north)
and Chennai (650 km in south) and forms the gateway for the rich agricultural belt of East Godavari,
West Godavari and Krishna Districts of Andhra Pradesh (Refer Figure 1-1).

7. From the regional perspective, the port development over the years coupled with good transport
network comprising connectivity through important roads (NH-214/ NH5 – part of the Golden
Quadrilateral Network), railways (railway station within port area) and air routes (nearest airports at
Rajahmundry – 65 Kms and Vishakhapatnam - 170 Km) has given impetus to industrial activities in the

region and further consolidated its position as one of the most important intermediate (non- major) ports
in the eastern region of the country.

Figure 1-1: Regional Linkages for the Kakinada Port

8. The bifurcation of the erstwhile state of Andhra Pradesh and a proposal to develop a new capital
town between Vijayawada and Guntur towns has provided additional focus to the region.

9. In addition to the Kakinada Deep Water Port, there is one additional minor port in vicinity i.e.
Kakinada Anchorage Port operated by Department of Ports, Government of Andhra Pradesh. An
additional port i.e. Kakinada SEZ port is
also proposed in vicinity to be developed
by GMR on 2,100 acres out of the 10,500
acres available with KSEZ, at an
investment of around INR 500 million. The
location of the Port is about 15 km North
of Kakinada Deep Water Port and is an all
together separate entity with no links to
the existing Kakinada Deep Water Port.
The location of these three ports in
Kakinada is depicted figure 1-2.

10. GMR has also established barge-

operational as observed during the site visit.

1.2 SUB-PROJECT DESCRIPT ION

11. Kakinada Sea Ports Limited (KSPL) is the appointed concessionaire by the Government of Andhra
Pradesh (GoAP) for operation, maintenance and management of the terminal in accordance with the
terms of the concession2 agreement and its subsequent amendments. The port was originally
developed as an all-weather port by GoAP with financial assistance from Asian Development Bank and
was commissioned during 1997. GoAP operated the facilities for two years prior to privatizing and
concessionising to KSPL in March, 1999.

12. KSPL began its commercial operations upon signing of the concession agreement for “four berth
terminal”. Four Berth Terminal as defined in the concessionaire agreement implies a terminal with the
existing three shore connected berths (610 m long) and a future berth (300m long) to be constructed
contiguous to the above three berths for handling all containerized cargo of any type, liquid cargo, LPG,
heavy machinery and equipment, over dimensional cargo and steel material with arrangement of any
type developed and operated by concessionaire on the premises for receiving, shipping and
transshipping of cargo to and from vessels including
ships and barges in domestic and international service,
onshore transportation arrangements, storage and The Takeout Agreement for subproject between

include but not be limited to berths, open stockyards, Novators (State Bank of Patiala (SBoP)) and
storage sheds, railway yards, handling systems, Union Bank of India (UBI) and the Novatee /
utilities such as water supply, power supply, fire Takeout Lender (IIFCL). Under the agreement,
fighting and safety facilities, communication facilities the Borrower, KSPL requested IIFCL to sanction

and all other engineering structures/facilities on the
premises.
14. IIFCL has sanctioned financial assistance for
Phase 13 and Phase 24 developments post (at least
one year) start of commercial operations date (COD)
as per the guidelines under “takeout” financing.
financial assistance up to an aggregate amount
of Two Billion Two Hundred Sixty Seven Million
Five Hundred Thousand Rupees by way of
takeout financing for meeting the outstanding
Phase 1 and part of Phase 2 loans of SBoP and
UBI under loan facility by IIFCL as Takeout
lender.

15. The Port operation was initiated by the KSPL-SPV

2 The Concession grants exclusive right and authority to KSPL for Operation, Maintenance and Management of Terminal with Four Shore connected Berths
at Kakinada Port through Concessionaire’s own investment together with a right to levy, collect and retain appropriate charges for Services by
Concessionaire during the concession period.
3 Phase 1 Development shall mean development of that part of the Package which makes the existing three berths fully developed for cargo handling,

storage etc.
4 Phase 2 development shall mean construction of the fourth berth (300 meters long) contiguous to South of the three berths and providing of cargo

handling and storage arrangements and other associated facilities.

-6-
in April 1999 and fourth berth was commissioned in March 2008 and two additional berths (fifth and
sixth berths) were commissioned in 2012. It may be observed that Kakinada Deep Water Port (KDWP)
since its inception¸ has witnessed series of development and, expansion activities are still ongoing as
per the proposed port master plan.

16. The ongoing expansion activities includes construction of 7th Berth contiguous to the 6th Berth,
dredging the berth pockets at 7th Berth, reclamation and development of back up area behind 7th Berth,
construction of drainages, roads, installation of lighting system and development of other infrastructural
activities, laying of railway sidings, doubling of existing main line to the port main station, widening and
deepening of Channel from 13.5m to 16m from break water to 5th and 6th and 7th Berths. These above
mentioned tasks are expected to be completed by December 2017.

17. The port operations started with an initial land parcel of 65 acres owned by the Government of
Andhra Pradesh. During the process of expansion, KSPL has reclaimed an area of about 360 acres
and further plans to reclaim additional 153 acres for future developments. Figure 1-3 below shows the
expansion activities in the port terminal area over the years starting 2005 till 2014 based on the Google
Earth data.

1.3 SCOPE OF SERVICES UNDER T HE CURRENT ASSIGNMENT

18. By emphasizing on achieving a balance between developmental imperatives and environmental

sustainability and social well-being, IIFCL endeavors to avoid, minimize, mitigate environmental and
social adverse impacts/risks in their operations and is committed to comply with all relevant

-7-
Government of India (GoI) and state level statutory requirements and also remains responsive to E & S
safeguard policy requirements of DFIs (Development Finance Institutions) wherever DFI’s Line of credit
is involved.

19. The scope of work of the study will mainly encompass the following:

• To review whether the sub-project is in compliance with applicable national & state statutory
requirements and regulations related to social and environmental aspects only.

• To review that there is no significant outstanding legal or legacy issues pending based on the
information in public domain and no significant outstanding risks for either IIFCL or the World
Bank.

• To review whether the social and environmental plans have been implemented during the post
COD phase of sub-projects as per national policies on safeguards and

• To confirm and report in ESDD, if any safeguard covenants or issues identified as part of
appraisal process are implemented.

20. Under Takeout financing, the financing is akin to post-COD refinancing of a lender as it does not
finance any construction stage activities, and differs considerably from typical project financing. It
contributes to improving (through reduced debt service burden and reduced interest rate) funding for
the operation and maintenance activities (including debt servicing) without financing any new capital
assets, any construction, or any purchase of land, etc.

21. The safeguard implementation during the construction stage as per the applicable policy
provisions has been reviewed based on the available information in public domain to identify
residual issues, if any. However, the current environmental and social due diligence study
focuses on the phase-1 and phase-2 post COD activities wherein IIFCL has sanctioned financial
assistance. Certain facilities / activities / services provided by the developer for the complete port area
are also appraised as part of the current study as these activities cannot be considered in isolation e.g.
the disaster mitigation plan, etc

22. Being a post COD due diligence study, the focus of the assignment mainly entail review of
environment and social management/action plans under the applicable clauses of the Concessionaire
Agreement, environmental and social safeguard compliance post COD and highlight the compliances
and gaps.

23. This report is based on the reconnaissance field visit observations, data collated and analyzed for
the activities having related environmental and social measures, review of the available compliance
reports/ document, EIA/EMP documents for expansion activities undertaken in the past as per the
availability.

2 ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE STATUS

25. The Environmental due diligence task focuses on the status of the applicable environmental
regulatory clearance obtained as on date; the compliance and /or compliance reporting with the
regulatory clearance conditions; review of the EIA documents including compliance of clearance
conditions and address residual environmental impacts of significance especially related to
community/common property resources, natural habitats, and cultural properties etc. The ESDD study
for takeout shall also focus on impacts during operation phase of the sub-project.

26. As part of the environmental due diligence under TFS5 (Take-out Financing), the compliance to the
project was reviewed w.r.t the following:

• Environmental plans implementation during operation phase.

• Outstanding or pending legal or legacy issues
• Compliance to applicable national social and environmental laws
• Institutional arrangements in place for implementation and monitoring of environmental
mitigation measures
• EHS related clauses in O & M agreement
• Emergency preparedness and Response plan during operation phase
• Status of plantation and compensatory plantation; and current arrangements for
maintenance and replacement of casualties.
• Accident / incident reporting
• Health and work safety measures
• Outcome of implementation status of public hearing proceedings

27. Reconnaissance site visit was conducted by the consultant along with the IIFCL’s safeguard team.
The site visit focussed on understanding the port terminal activities; applicable environmental and social
aspects in the KSPL Deep Water Port operations; informal interactions with the fishing community in
immediate vicinity; Port officials including the environmental and safety department team members;
understanding efforts undertaken by KSPL as part of their mandatory CSR commitments; and gather
requisite information available in public domain & discussions with the developer for preparation of the
environmental and social due diligence report.

2.1 APPRAISAL OF CONCESSION AG REEMENT

28. The concession agreement was signed between the Government of Andhra Pradesh (Transport,
Roads & Buildings Department) and International Seaports Pte Limited, Singapore (currently
represented by SPV in the name of KSPL) on March 19, 1999 at Hyderabad. The Government of

TFS will deal with sub projects which are at post construction/ operational phase. As assistance under TFS is sanctioned only after minimum of one year
after the start of commercial operations date (COD), it is expected that the safeguard issues as per applicable state, national guidelines/regulations would
have been addressed by then.
- 10 -
Andhra Pradesh (GoAP) granted permission to the concessionaire to take over the existing
three berths with all the existing infrastructure facilities, construct an additional berth
contiguous to the existing three berths, operate and maintain the facilities and provide services
at its sole cost and expenses. The land reclaimed and waterfront shall always be owned by GoAP
however the concessionaire shall be the owner of the assets only for duration of concession period.
The concession agreement was originally signed for a period of 20 years and has been extended
based on the revised agreements between the GoAP and concessionaire. The key aspects stated in
the concession agreement pertinent to environmental due diligence includes:

• Obtaining of all statutory and non-statutory clearances required for the package
development of all government and other agencies and authorities and the cost for
obtaining such clearances shall be the responsibility of concessionaire.
• All plans and designs of the package development shall be reviewed by GoAP prior to
implementation to ensure conformity with the total development plan and accepted
engineering design codes and practices.
• Concessionaire shall take all necessary measures to ensure compliance with all
environmental laws and laws relating to pollution and shall be entirely liable to any
violations or breaches thereof attributable to concessionaire.

29. Supplementary agreements to the concession agreement were signed between GoAP and KSPL
on 25-Aug-2003 and 28-Jan-2009 modifying some of the clauses under the original agreement taking
into account, the overall circumstances and long term viability of the package. The key points being :

• The concessionaire shall have the freedom to develop new berths / facilities within the
Deep Water Port. However, GoAP can construct and operate their berth(s). In all other
cases concessionaire has first right of refusal.
• Additionally the supplementary agreements states that the land if any available and also in
future as and when any lease agreements entered with GoAP by the port users expire, first
right of refusal may be offered to KSPL, in deep water port except the areas earmarked for
ship-building units, fishing harbour and land being used for government purpose.
• KSPL has been granted permission to establish the ship building activity in the earmarked
land as per the approved master plan of Kakinada port for land use and water front.
Currently KSPL is also undertaking the construction of the 5th, 6th and 7th Berth (berth 5th
and 6th completed). Other future expansion activities include setting up of a floating LNG
terminal.

2.3 APPRAISAL OF T HE EIA DOCUMENT (5 T H , 6 T H & 7 T H BERT H)

32. The review of the EIA document reveals that the area is predominantly agriculture oriented with
crops like sugarcane and paddy as predominant crops. The area has predominantly agricultural
labourers and industrial workers. The proposed project area is devoid of any major natural vegetation.

33. There is no anticipated rehabilitation of the village / community due to the proposed expansion of
the port. The following activities are being carried out by KSPL towards environmental management
during the port operations:

• Green belt development in the port area

• Dust suppression

• Ambient environmental quality monitoring

34. The port terminal area is not in vicinity of any ecologically sensitive zones like an estuary or
mangrove forest areas. No significant irreversible impacts are identified in the EIA study. The impacts
identified are short term, localized impacts mainly during the construction stage both for marine-side
and land-side. The construction stage impacts include:

1. Changes in the current pattern

2. Increased turbidity levels and DO levels

3. Suspended sediment

35. No impacts are envisioned for the fishing activity being carried out from the fishing harbour located
north of the existing facility and also near the anchorage port. The dredging activity is confined
within the immediate vicinity of the port hence no significant impacts are envisioned. The monitoring
reports shared by KSPL also confirm that the impacts due to increased sediment and turbidity
levels are restricted to construction site / berth only.

2.4 WAT ER SUPPLY AND WAST E WAT ER GENERAT ION

36. As per the information shared by KSPL, the waste water generation is domestic in nature and no
hazardous waste water is generated, and for treatment of domestic waste water, a STP is installed and
treated water is used for gardening or irrigation within the STP area. An ETP is under construction and
is expected to be completed by Nov 2015. The treated water from STP is being used for gardening,
plantation purposes. The estimated waste water generation (KLD) after implementation of expansion
shall not exceed the following:

Quantity (KLD)
Sl.No Source

42. No major fire incidents have been reported in the past within the Port terminal area except one
instance of fire in the conveyor belts for coal transfer due to excessive heating. KSPL has also
responded to fire emergencies outside the port area as part of their Corporate Social Responsibility.

2.5.2 ONSITE AND OFF SITE D ISASTER MAN AGEMENT PLAN

43. The risk assessment & emergency response manual provides guidelines for dealing with natural
(storms / earthquake) and man-made disasters (fire, explosions, terrorist attacks, and discharge of
effluents to water, collision and escape of inflammable or toxic gases). The manual provides guidelines
for minimizing losses to life, environment and property; systematic response to the crisis situations.

44. The manual lays down the institutional setup, roles and responsibilities of the KSPL staff on duty to
handle emergency scenarios. It was observed during the site visits that adequate signs depicting
assembly areas, hardhat areas etc and emergency numbers are displayed adequately within the port
premises. KSPL also conducts regular training and mock drills (at least twice a year) to train staff and
workers in handling emergency situations.

KSPL is adequately complying with the emergency response management in case of natural
and man-made disasters and have a trained manpower to undertake such tasks with a sound
institutional mechanism for implementation.

be satisfactory.

2.7 DREDGING & L AN D RECL AIMAT ION ACT IVIT IES

46. The dredge material disposal and dredging tasks were carried out as per the EMP
guidelines. As per the EIA document and information shared by KSPL, the dredged material
from the sand trap is being used for reclamation of the backup areas for the multipurpose berth.

47. About 80% of the maintenance dredge material from the channel and berths area is being
used for beach nourishment and transferred to the northern side to maintain the continuity of the
littoral drift. The remaining dredged material is being disposed at the designated site 15 kms
north of the Deep Water Sea Port. As regards the 5th, 6th & 7th berth EC, the proponent is

2.8 GREEN BELT DEVELOPMENT

48. A total of 12 acres of green belt has been developed by KSPL as per the following details:

• 5 m wide along the periphery of the back-up area of the multipurpose berth at S-
Bund internal Road.
• Along the length of the main approach road.
• Along the OSV Internal Road.
• Along ADB road about 2.5 km stretch (recently undertaken)
• Opposite all port offices viz., Operations, HSE, Projects, Security etc.

-17-
49. As per the information shared by the concessionaire, an area of approximately 12 acres has
been converted to green areas within port complex. Additionally 5 acres at Port Administrative
Building and 2 acre at existing vacant pockets in the port are planted. The concessionaire plans
to develop 45 acres of green plantation areas within the port area as per the conditions under
which NOC has been granted. The details of the 12 acres of green belt is mentioned below:

50. Owing to the saline conditions and black soil the development of the green belt is slow and
difficult. As per the information shared by KSPL, 27,667 saplings have been planted and more
plantations are proposed to be planted. The development of green belt is currently under way to
meet the requirements.

KSPL would need to put in additional efforts to ensure early completion of the targeted
green cover based on which the two EC’s has been granted for 4th Berth and 5th, 6th & 7th
Berth separately.

52. As per the information shared by KSPL and minutes of the public hearing meetings (as part
of the EIA requirements for 5th, 6th and 7th Berth) no special demands were raised by the Public.
The issues raised during the public hearing for EIA were predominantly focused on the
measures to improve the environment and employment opportunities for the local people. The
other environmental issues highlighted by the participants during the hearing was with regard to
safety and health problems of workers; allowing fishermen fishing in the ocean and adequate
measures in disposing the dredged waste materials.

-21-
53. The issues raised by the local community are addressed by the KSPL by way of providing
employment to the local fishing community, conducting regular health checkup camps for the
workers, and ensuring the fishermen community that there are no restrictions on fishing by them
from KSPL. The avenue street lighting for beach road emerged as one of the key expectations in
the hearing which has already been implemented by KSPL.

2.11 SIT E OBSER VAT ION S

54. The following key observations are concluded based on the site visit and available
documents including interactions with the KSPL officials:

• The environmental clearance for 4th Berth & OSV facility and 5th, 6th and 7th berth were
obtained under EIA and CRZ notifications.
• The port terminal does not require any clearances under the Forest Conservation Act as
no forest land parcel was ever acquired. Most of the land has been reclaimed.
• The details about the borrow areas / quarry sites (site locations, closure plans and its
implementation etc) were not made available to the consultant.
• The port terminal has obtained necessary clearances from MoEF / State Pollution Control
Board under Air & Water
Acts and other regulatory
organizations and has
been complying with the
reporting requirements
based on the information
shared by KSPL.
• It was observed during the
site visit that the basic
facilities provided by the
contractor to the
construction labourers at labour camps (for ongoing port expansion activities) are
inadequate and needs further strengthening as depicted in the snaps below. KSPL has the
overall responsibility to ensure compliance to the regulatory requirements for themselves
as well as the sub lease partners/ sub contractors/ any third party operating within the Port
terminal area.
• The health and safety compliance are kept as contractor’s responsibility in sub contracting
by KSPL.
• The development of green belt and additional plantations are being undertaken by KSPL.

-22-
• During the field visit it was observed that the workers were seen wearing safety gears at
work site, adequate safety related signs were displayed at various locations in the port
terminal area.

• Water sprinkling was being done on a regular basis as observed during site visit in areas
handling dry cargo and on the main access roads.
• Fire extinguishers are installed and adequate training programs and mock drills are
conducted by KSPL on a regular basis for the staff and workers as observed during site
visit.
• The sub project did
not impact any eco
sensitive zones /
critical natural
habitats. None of
such impacts are
expected in the port
expansion activities.
The land
requirements are met
through land
reclamation only.
• Periodic environmental quality monitoring including marine environment is carried out
regularly by third party agency appointed by KSPL.

-23-
55. Project developer has confirmed that hazardous materials wastes are being
handled by a third party and disposed in an environmentally safe manner. Majority of
these activities are applicable for the complete port terminal area and cannot be looked in
isolation for the due diligence tasks. Overall the development of the port during phase 1
and phase 2 did not have any noticeable adverse impacts.

2.12 CONCL USIO NS

56. Based on the review of the available information, reconnaissance site visits,
interactions with the KSPL officials and local fishermen community in vicinity of the port
area, it can be established that the concessionaire i.e. KSPL is adhering to the statutory
requirements as per the national and state regulations and is committed to protection of
the environment while performing its activities.

57. A random internet search also did not reveal any pending legacy issues related to the
Kakinada Deep Water Port or its operations. As part of the CSR initiatives, KSPL has also
responded to the fire emergences beyond the port area in the past.

58. KSPL however need to strength their efforts in establishing green cover in the port area
as per the conditions stipulated under the EC granted.

3.2 PROJECT ST RUCT URE AND D EL INEAT ION OF PROJ ECT AR EA

65. Kakinada Port comprises of Kakinada Anchorage Port and Kakinada Fishing Harbour
(managed departmentally by the Director of Ports), and Kakinada Deep Water Port (developed
by GoAP and handed over to a private developer KSPL). The present study is limited to the
Kakinada Deep Water Port being managed by KSPL. However, from the perspective of impact
area, parts of Kakinada municipal area (mainly the fisherman colonies), Village Suryapet and
fishing harbor community falls within the immediate surroundings of the Project area (KDWP) on
the land side and Hope Island fisherman community on the water side. The major interventions
made as part of the community development activities under the CSR concentrate on these
areas.

The GOAP recognized the importance of port development due to major developments in power
sector, industrial development, agricultural activities, fisheries development and mineral
exploitation etc in light of the initiation of liberalization process in the Indian economy in early
1990’s. Kakinada Deep Water Port (KDWP), located in East Godavari District and comprising
three berths and other related infrastructure, was developed by GoAP between 1993 and 1996.
GOAP decided to operate the three existing shore connected berths, develop and operate one
more berth contiguous to the existing three berths and perform certain aspects of operation
maintenance and management of common facilities of the entire port through private
participation.

66. The Government of Andhra Pradesh had initiated the process for privatization of Kakinada in
1994 and finally the process could be successfully culminated in March 1999 with the award of 3
+ 1 berths at KDWP to the International Seaports Pte Limited, Singapore (ISPL) consortium, led
by Larsen & Toubro (India) Ltd., on Operate, Maintain, Share and Transfer (OMST –for three
berths)/Build Operate, Share and Transfer (BOST- for fourth berth) basis. Posts signing of
Concession Agreement in March 1999, the project facilities at existing three births for operations
were handed over to the SPV and the operations were commenced by the SPV with effect from
April 1, 1999.

67. As per the Concession Agreement, the development was envisaged to be completed in two
phases. The Phase 1 Development included making the existing three berths fully developed for
cargo handling, storage etc and Phase 2 development involved construction of the fourth berth
(300 meters long) contiguous to South of the three berths and providing of cargo handling and
storage arrangements and other associated facilities. The developer was required to prepare
plan for execution of Phase 2 Development (addition of fourth berth) on achievement of berth
occupancy of 65% for a year and complete the execution within 24 months of its
commencement. The Fourth Birth was commissioned in March 2008.
-27-
68. KDWP project was amongst the first private sector port projects in the country and was
launched at a time when such experience was not available in the country related to Concession
Agreements for the Port Projects and also in terms of defining the risk sharing mechanisms.
Based on the experiences gained during the execution of Agreement, several issues were
identified in the Concession Agreement including the ones emerging due to policy changes and
signing of concession agreement for other ports. In view of factors affecting the viability of the
project (primarily due to the non-realization of estimated traffic and the high component of MGA
that the developer had to pay to GoAP and the advantageous position for the other Competitor
Port Operators who entered agreements at later dates with different terms and conditions of the
Concession Agreement), several discussions and negotiations took place between the GoAP
and KSPL based on which two supplementary agreements to the original concession agreement
have been signed during 2003 and 2009 respectively.

69. The major changes as mutually agreed between GoAP and KSPL include revision in
concession period, freedom for future development, revisions in revenue sharing and removal of
minimum guarantee provisions, revision in provisions related to requirement of additional lands.
Following the amendments in the Concession Agreement in 2009, KSPL initiated the process for
3 additional births, out of which two additional berths (fifth and sixth berths) were commissioned
in 2011-12 and the seventh is under commissioning.

related activities are concentrated on the eastern side of the Samalkota-Kakinada Bypass except
for a narrow strip of proposed activities on the western side of the road. The Outline of the
Master Plan area (red outline) has been superimposed on the google earth image along with
demarcation of existing KDWP boundary of development (blue outline) in Figure-3.2. The
chronological development of KDWP over a period of 2005 to 2014 is already explained in
Section 1.1 also clearly shows that majority of the development has started coming up post
2009.

Figure-3.2: Master Plan and KDWP Boundaries on Google Earth

71. The safeguard implementation during the construction stage as per applicable policy
provisions has been reviewed to identify any residual issues based on the information available
in public domain. The extent and scope is limited to post COD Phase-1 and Phase-2 activities
included as part of takeout financing by IIFCL. Being a post COD due diligence study, the focus
of the social due diligence is more on the compliance of provisions under the Concessionaire
Agreement and the prevailing national laws related to social safeguards.

3.3 LAND ACQU ISIT ION AND R ESETT LEMENT IMPACT S UND ER
T HE PROJECT

72. The Project involved transfer of land under the existing Port developed by the GoAP during
the period 1993-96 which became operational in 1997 and was being operated by GoAP till it
was transferred to KSPL in 1999. The Port was built primarily in the submerged and partially
reclaimed land in the coast area falling in the jurisdictions of the Government as is clearly evident

-29-
from Clause 3.2 of the Concession Agreement regarding the land area leased which reads as
follows:

73. “Clause 3.2: The land areas (including the submerged areas) to be leased by the GOAP to
CONCESSIONAIRE upon execution of this Agreement are indicated in Annexure C (Figure 3.3
below). The partially reclaimed area behind the three berths will be treated as land area for the
purposes of lease charges.”

Figure 3.3: Project Area as per Concession Agreement (Four Berth Terminal)

74. The Clause 3.2 of the Concession Agreement has been amended as per the Second
Supplementary Agreement signed in 2009 and now reads:

75. “The land area (including the submerged areas) to be released by the GoAP to
Concessionaire upon execution of this Agreement, area indicated in Annexure-C of the
Concession Agreement dated 19.3.1999. The partially reclaimed areas behind the three berths
will be treated as land area for the purpose of lease charges.

76. GoAP shall offer land if any available and also in future as and when any lease agreements
entered with GoAP by the port users expire (both annual and long term), first right of refusal may
be offered In KSPL, in deep water port, except the areas earmarked for ship- building units,

-30-
fishing harbour and land being used for Government purpose." The area excluded from the
purview of the Concession Agreement is marked with green circle in Figure 3.1.

77. The issue related to land status and ownership was also confirmed during the site visit from
the Developer and the residents of surrounding fishing harbour settlement (settlement has come
up on government land) and it has been confirmed that the land under the KDWP belonged to
the government and no private land was acquired for the KDWP.

78. The Concession Agreement does not provide the exact extent of land (except the map) area
including the submerged area that was transferred to KSPL as part of initial Three Berth Port
handed over in 1999. As informed by KSPL, the GoAP had transferred about 65 Acres of land
(including submerged land) at the time of initial transfer.

79. During the process of expansion, KSPL reclaimed an area of about 360 acres and further
plans to reclaim an additional 153 acres for future developments, which can be seen in Figure
3.4 below.

Figure-3.4: Layout of KDWP including Future Berths

80. Clause 2.25 of the Concession Agreement defines the term Premises as:

“The Premises means and includes (1) land (including submerged land) given on lease by the
GOAP to the CONCESSIONAIRE (2) all structures and facilities constructed or provided by the
GOAP on Premises sub component (1) above; (3) land reclaimed by the CONCESSIONAIRE
during the pendency of this Agreement; (4) all structures and facilities including modifications
constructed or provided by the CONCESSIONAIRE or its sub-contractors or any other assignees

-31-
on the Premises sub components (1) to (3) above during the pendency of this Agreement and
(5) Tugs, pilot launches and other flotilla for providing services to the ships, all above within limits
of Kakinada Port.”

81. It clearly establishes that except for the initial government land leased by the GoAP
(including submerged land), the remaining land has to be reclaimed by the Developer. Under this
project, the acquisition of land was not anticipated and hence there is no clause in the
Concession Agreement which refers to any land to be acquired and the associated
responsibilities of the Developer with regard to the social safeguards. The second important
factor is that the Concession Agreement was signed back in 1999, where the policies and
process for private port agreements were in the evolving stages. Since there was no land
acquisition involved in the project, there were no issues associated with the resettlement
impacts. Even the future expansion of births Container Zone and Cargo Zone is proposed only
through reclaimed land. Hence, no resettlement impacts are anticipated. The review of
documents available in public domain and discussions with the stakeholders clearly
reveals that there are no residual issues with regard to social safeguards implementation.

82. The subsequent Agreements for other Private Ports signed by the GoAP involving land
acquisition had provisions for the R&R package. The Government of Andhra Pradesh has come-
up with privatization guidelines to encourage the private sector in Port development. The specific
provisions related to land for private ports in the policy are:

• Government will assist in acquisition of land on payment by the investor. Wherever port
land is available, it will be provided to the parties at the rates prescribed by the
Government.

• Land required for those industries which need to be located close to a port to take
advantage of bulk handling of their materials/products, can be acquired on the basis of
feasibility report made by the investor. If the investor wants to own the land and lease out
to industries, such land can be acquired on market price under Land Acquisition Act.

3.4 COMMUN IT IES IN T HE PROJ ECT AREA - T HE IMPACT

83. As can be observed from Figure-3.4, there is an existing Fishing Harbour (green boundary in
Figure-3.5) in the north of KDWP boundary which was constructed back in 1984. In addition to
the Fishing Harbour, several huts have come-up on the harbor area (yellow boundary in Map-
3.5). The fishing harbor community resides outside the land allotted to KSPL for the purpose of
Kakinada Deep Water Port (blue boundary in Figure-3.5). As per the Master Plan for the
Kakinada Port, the fishing harbor is proposed to be relocated to further north of the existing
harbor (refer Figure-3.1) beyond the proposed break water structure and the current fishing
-32-
harbor area is proposed for future ship building activity as per the Master Plan Proposal. The
issue was discussed with the representatives of KSPL and they mentioned that decision
regarding relocation of fishing harbor is not within their purview as it falls under the Department
of Port of the state government. The operations of fishing harbor do not affect the functioning of
KDWP and they don’t intend to disturb the harbor. If the state government decides to relocate
the fishing harbor, KSPL has no controls over the decision. As per the provisions of the Second
Supplementary Agreement, “GoAP shall offer land if any available and also in future as and
when any lease agreements entered with GoAP by the port users expire (both annual and long
term), first right of refusal may be offered In KSPL, in deep water port, except the areas
earmarked for ship- building units, fishing harbour and land being used for Government
purpose". The Fishing Harbor does not fall under the purview of KSPL and hence has no
direct impact on the KSPL operations.

Figure-3.5: Fishing Harbour and Fishing Harbour Colony

84. In the initial stages of the privatization process, the stakeholder consultations were not
carried out and as a result, the two major stakeholders, i.e. the fisherman and the port workers at
Anchorage Port had lot of apprehensions with regard to loss of livelihood due to expansion of
KDWP.

85. The Fishermen working on the Fishing Harbour also had apprehensions in the initial stages
of the project regarding the likely impact on their business and livelihood. The KSPL adopted an

-33-
approach of inclusive and participative development. It worked with the people and also
explained them about the project and assured the community of not affecting their shipping
operations for fishing. The fishing harbour operations and the port navigation channel do not
conflict each other. KSPL has not put any restrictions on fishing ships crossing the navigation
channel. The KSPL has also made a provision to get the navigation channel before any ship is
brought into the channel by using the pilot boats to avoid any risks of accidents.

86. The tender documents issued by the GoAP had made certain projections with regard to the
cargo mix that included agri centric cargo like fertilizers, oil extractions, sugar, rice and wheat
that constituted 70% of the projected volumes at the time of bid. However, there were instances
of the anchorage port workers going on strike in protest of the deep water port handling agri
commodities such as wheat. The final negotiated Concession Agreement signed with the
Developer introduced a Clause which was not in line with the original tender conditions. Clause
2.19.1 (part) clause restricted the Developer to handle cargo handled by Anchorage Port, which
reads as follows:

87. “The concessionaire would also be permitted to handle any bulk cargo of the kind not
previously or presently handled by the Anchorage Port. Further, all cargo generated exclusively
by the Concessionaire through their own efforts may be handled by the Deep Water Port.”

88. The restrictive clause affected the viability of the project and KSPL was unable to meet the
obligations of Minimum Guaranteed Amount (MGA), which resulted in financial closure for

-34-
Phase-1 Development. After several rounds of discussions and negotiations, the government
agreed for rescheduling of payment of MGA ensuring that NPV of the amount to be paid during
the concession period remained the same in 2003 and accordingly the supplementary
concession agreement included these changes. However, even these changes did not make the
project viable and accordingly the second supplementary agreement deleted the clause related
to MGA. Annexure-3.2 provides further details of the Case Study of KDWP available as part of
PPP Toolkit on the web-site of Ministry of Finance, GoI.

3.5 PUBL IC CO NSULT AT ION S AN D HEARING IN T HE PROJ ECT

89. The project does not involve any land acquisition so there were no hearings related to the
land acquisition or resettlement impacts. However, as part of the EIA exercise for V, VI and VII
birth, public hearings were conducted in 2009-2010 where the community representatives had
flagged certain issues and expressed the expectations from the project for the area. The list of
issues and the response from the management along with the status of existing implementation
is enclosed as Annexure-3.1. The issues raised during the public hearing for EIA were
predominantly focused on the measures to improve the environment and employment
opportunities for the local people (discussed in next section). The other social issues raised
during the hearing was with regard to rehabilitation of fishermen who will lose their livelihood,
and it was clarified that the reclamation of land is towards the southern side of the existing port
which does not affect the fishermen livelihood in any way. The avenue street lighting for beach
road emerged as one of the key expectations in the hearing which has already been
implemented as reported.

90. Apart from the above referred Public Hearing minutes, there is no formal documentation
available regarding the specific demands from the community. The community needs for the
surrounding communities are identified more on the basis of word of mouth and then in
consultation with the local community representatives, the developer has executed various
activities under the CSR for social development.

3.6 EMPLOYMENT GENER AT ION AND SAFEGUARD S FOR

EMPLOYEES

91. As per the data provided by the Developer, about 400 members were employed through
construction contractor and his sub contractors during construction phase. During operation
stage, about 100 members are employed. The expansion of port activities with the creation of
additional births would result in further expansion of employment during construction and
operation phase. As per the EIA document prepared for Births 5, 6 and 7, the total direct

-35-
employment is estimated at 600, whereas during construction phase an employment of about
1000 workers and indirect employment is estimated at 1500. KSPL is adhering to the insurance
for employees as per the provisions of the Concession Agreement and the Port requirements for
the employees. In addition, other safeguards for employees with regard to health and safety of
the employees are also being adhered to which are already discussed in Section on
Environmental Due Diligence.

3.7 CSR IN IT AT IVES B Y KSPL

92. The year-wise detail of the amount spent by KSPL towards CSR activities is given below.

93. The activities undertaken by KSPL as part of the CSR initiatives ranges from small scale
donations to trusts/ societies working for social causes to large capital intensive contribution of
equipments and vehicles for hospital as per the requirements finalised by the district
administration. The list of activities taken up by KSPL during the past 4 years along with the
amount spent on each activity under CSR is enclosed as Annexure-3.3. The District Collector,
East Godavari District issued the guidelines for implementation of CSR activities in order to
coordinate the development activities in the district. The guidelines are enclosed as Annexure-
3.4. The guidelines were made effective from April 1, 2013 and subsequent implementation of
CSR activities has been made as per the provisions of these guidelines. The CSR provisions
have been notified by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (“MCA”) on February 27, 2014 giving
effect to Section 135 the new Companies Act, 2013 (“Companies Act”) dealing with CSR read
with Schedule VII (“Schedule”) of the Companies Act covering the revised list of activities and
the Companies (Corporate Social Responsibility) Rules, 2014 (“CSR Rules”), enclosed as
Annexure-3.5 . The said Section, Schedule and CSR Rules will come into effect from the first
day of April, 2014.The CSR provision will be applicable to companies with an annual turnover of
INR 10 billion and more, or a net worth of INR 5 billion and more, or a net profit of INR 0.05
billion or more during any financial year. Companies that trigger any of the aforesaid conditions

-36-
must spend at least two per cent (2%) of their average net profits made during the three
immediately preceding financial years on CSR activities and/or report the reason for spending or
non-expenditure. The provisions related to the monitoring are well laid out in CSR Rules
regarding the implementation of the activities planned and compliance of the reporting
requirements. Based on the information provided by the Developer and visit to some of the CSR
initiatives implemented it can be concluded that the CSR activities are being implemented as per
the statutory requirements.

3.8 CONCL USIO NS

94. The Social due-diligence study for the KDWP project clearly shows that there is no land
acquisition involved in the project and hence no issues related to resettlement and rehabilitation.
The consultants also visited the project site along with the social and environmental experts of
IIFCL during November 2014. The objective of the visit was to get a first hand information and
understanding of the project and the safeguard and social/ community development measures
being undertaken by the developer. The site visit included interactions with the developer, review
the updated documents available with the developer regarding the project activities, understand
the project operations and also interact with the communities in the project area to understand
the social impact of the project.

-37-
• The initial parcel of three births (including submerged land) was part of the existing port
managed by GoAP admeasuring about 65 Acres handed over to KSPL in April 1999 and the
remaining entire land is only through reclamation. Based on the review of the Concession
Agreement, documents and the available information provided by Developer, information
available in public domain and the interaction with the community, the project does not
appear to have any legacy or residual issues related to the social safeguards.

• The project did not have any negative impact on the livelihood of the communities in the
surrounding areas and in fact it has generated employment opportunities for the local people,
both directly and indirectly as confirmed through the interactions with the community in the
surrounding area. The project has helped in generating employment opportunities during
construction and operation stages of project.

• The interactions with the users of Fishing Harbour facility for catching the fishes also
confirmed that there are no conflicts in the port operation and the shipping operation. The
Developer has never stopped movement of fishing ships crossing the navigation channel and
the safety measures are adopted by the KSPL at the time of movement of any ship in the
Channel. The operations at the fishing harbour are managed by the Department of Ports.
The fishing harbour activities were also observed and it was found that both the fishing and
port activities do not conflict each other and hence no impact on the livelihood.

• The fishing harbour community in the fishing harbour area as reported are squatting on the
fishing harbour land which does not fall under the direct purview of KSPL. In addition as per
the provisions of the second supplementary agreement, “the GoAP shall offer land if any
available and also in future as and when any lease agreements entered with GoAP by the
port users expire (both annual and long term), first right of refusal may be offered In KSPL, in
deep water port, except the areas earmarked for ship- building units, fishing harbour and
land being used for Government purpose.".It clearly establishes that the state government
has exempted the Fishing Harbour area from the purview of First right of refusal for KSPL. It
does not conflict the operations of KDWP and any issue of relocation or rehabilitation of this
community does not fall in the purview and action plan of the Developer.

• The community also confirmed the positive impact the project has for the area. The
developer has helped the community living in the fishing harbour area in addressing two
major day to day needs by extending support for improvement in the school building and
daily supply of drinking water through tankers for the community living in the fishing harbour
area huts.

• The Port, being a gated complex with restricted entry due to security and safety reasons,
does not affect the only community in the surrounding areas.
-38-
• The Developer has established systems for health and safety of the staff and workers. The
Developer has taken necessary insurance for the workers.

• The Corporate Social Responsibility activities are being undertaken as per the provisions of
the Company Act, CSR Rules and the guidelines issued by the District Administration with
regard to community development activities. The monitoring mechanisms are already in
place as per the provisions of the CSR Rules, 2014 as well as the guidelines issued by the
district administration and the implementation of CSR activities is being taken up by the
developer as per the directions of the district administration.

Based on the site visits observations and findings based on review of information available in
Public domain, it can be concluded that the project have no residual social safeguard issues
which could have reputational risks for the IIFCL or the World Bank. The Developer is required to
adhere to the statutory requirements of implementation of CSR activities as per the provisions of
the Companies Act and the CSR Rules, for which Developer shall be asked to submit a
certificate of statutory compliance on quarterly basis till the tenure of loan.

PURPOSE AND ADVANATGES OF ENVIRONMENTAL STATEMENT STUDIES

The Environmental statement studies serve the following three basic purposes:
i) Compilation of the complete information on the operation of the industrial facility and its potential sources of
pollution through technical inspection. This inspection, which is conducted at a facility, allows the activities that are
programmed and entrusted to the operational branches to be carried out in order to correct the different problems
detected at their source or to force conservation and maintenance measures need to prevent major pollution
problems.
ii) Evaluation of the conditions surrounding the industrial facility in order to estimate possible impacts, which may be
caused, and the suggested recovery measures for such situations.
iii) Preparation and implementation of action plans for better control of the environment, and the environmentally
related industrial activities, including further developmental activities of the areas.
The primary and obvious advantage of preparation of environmental statement is to help and safeguard the
environment and to substantiate compliance with local, regional and national laws and regulations, and with
the company policy and standards. There can be several other benefits, the importance of which may vary
from situation to situation. These benefits include
i)Reduced exposure to litigation and regulatory risk (e.g. prosecutions, penalties etc.) – facilitating comparison and
interchange of information between operations or plants.
ii)Increasing employer awareness of environmental policies and responsibilities.
iii)Identifying potential cost – savings including those resulting from waste minimization.
iv)Evaluating training programmes and providing data to assist in training personnel.
v)Providing an information base for use in emergencies and evaluating the effectiveness of emergency response
arrangements.
vi)Assuring an adequate, up-to-date environmental data base for internal management awareness and decision
making in relation to plant modification, new plants etc.
vii)Enabling management to give credit for good environmental performance.
viii)Helping to assist relations to authorities by convincing them that complete and effective statement are being
undertaken.
ix)Facilitating and obtaining of insurance coverage for environmental impairment liability.

This investigates the status of the Environmental Management systems and equipment. The complex embodies a
number of measures to control oil spillage and the 125 KVA & 250 KVA & 500KVA x3 generator’s stack emissions,
etc.
Show cause notice received on 15th May, 2014 and respective compliance is submitted on 23rd May’ 2014.

OIL SPILLAGE AVOIDANCE AND CONTROL PLAN

M/s. Kakinada Seaports Limited handles products & Edible oils. Following precautions are taken towards prevention &
management of Oil spillage if any during the discharge of oils
The cargo receivers / pipe line- terminal operators are advised to use wire reinforced rubber hoses for discharge of
oils. This ensures that the hoses are adequately protected normal wear and tear & abrasion during handling.

The flange joints are inspected for leaks. Drip trays, sawdust, cotton rags are kept standby for attending to any
accidental leaks.
Discharge pressure and flow rates are continuously monitored by the vessel and the receivers to ensure that the lines
are never pressurized.
Continuous walkie-talkie communication is maintained by the pipeline-terminal operators to check and control oil
spillage if any during discharge. Communication is also maintained between the receiving terminal and the vessel to
effect emergency stop of cargo pumping in the event of a leak.
The vessels are advised to comply with all international regulations and effect the mandatory precautions on cargo
discharge.
KSPL maintains about 400 Ltrs of OSD (Oil Spill Dispersant) and dedicated dispersing spray system on board one of
its tug for quick combat of oil if any on the water surface.

 GREEN BELT
Green belt developed till 2012-2013 was about 12acres and for 2013-14 another 0.25acres added to the Green Belt and by Sep
2014 about 06 acres more Green Belt Developed.
Plants of native origin, first growing type with thick canopy and large leaf index shall be preferred. The philosophy behind the green
belt developed at M/s. Kakinada Seaports Limited is to improve the ecology and environment of the surrounding of the plant by
extensive afforestation. Appropriate planning techniques have been adopted in selected areas. Greenbelt is a set of rows of trees
planted in such a fashion, to create effective barrier between the port and surroundings. The greenbelt helps to capture the fugitive
emissions, attenuate the noise levels in the port and simultaneously improving aesthetics of the port site.

The greenbelt around the factory compound wall in the reserve site will be developed in keeping view of the following objectives:
1. Planting of trees in each row are in staggered pattern.
2. The short trees are planted in the first two rows and the tall trees in the outer rows around the purview of the project site.
3. Since the trucks of the tall trees are generally devoid of foliage, it will be useful to have shrubs in front of the trees so as
to give coverage to this portion.
4. Sufficient spacing is maintained between the trees to facilitate effective height of the greenbelt.

The photographs of already completed Green Belt, Ongoing & Proposed areas are depicted in the subsequent pages.

Annexure-3.2: Case Study of Kakinada Deep
Water Port

PPP TOOLKIT for Improving PPP Decision-Making Processes, Ministry of Finance, GoI

GoAP handed over the project facilities to KSPL in March 1999. All immovable assets were transferred
without any consideration. All movable assets like tugs, cranes and forklifts were transferred at a rate
calculated as per the norms agreed in the concession agreement. Soon after, it was realized that the
project was not likely to be viable on the existing terms of the concession. GoAP reportedly failed to
allow KSPL to handle the cargo mix as mentioned in the tender forms. This included agri-centric cargo
like fertilizers, oil extractions, sugar, rice and wheat that constituted 70 per cent of the projected
volumes at the time of the bid. In fact there was considerable social unrest with respect to handling of
commodities at the anchorage port and the deep water port. There were instances of the anchorage
port workers going on strike in protest of the deep water port handling agri commodities such as wheat.

KSPL thus was unable to meet the obligation of the MGA. This also impacted the financial closure for
the Phase 1 development. Accordingly, there were several rounds of negotiations and discussions
where KSPL requested the government to withdraw the MGA clause and retain only the revenue
sharing clause. In 2003, the Government agreed that the payment of MGA can be rescheduled
ensuring that the net present value of the amount to be paid during the concession period remained the
same. KSPL was thus able to achieve financial closure for the Phase 1 development in 2004 which
envisaged back-up area development, railway line connectivity and procurement of equipment. In 2004,
Salgaocar Mining Industries Pvt. Ltd. (SMIPL) was inducted as a shareholder in KSPL. Subsequently,
KSPL took up the development of the fourth berth and an OSV complex in 2007. The same was
completed in 2008.

Despite the changes in the concession agreement, KSPL continued to experience difficulty in attracting
traffic and paying the MGA to the Government. In addition, the development of the new ports of
Gangavaram and Krishnapatnam, in the vicinity of Kakinada, with modern facilities and a deeper draft,
added to the problems of the KSPL. Accordingly, KSPL once again appealed to the government for
flexibility and amendment in terms and conditions.

After a detailed evaluation and analysis, GoAP, in 2009, agreed to amend the concession agreement
by way of a supplementary agreement. The amendments included an extension in the concession
period from the original tenure of 20 years to 30 years, with a further option for extension by 20 years in
two blocks of 10 years each, elimination of the stipulation with respect to the MGA for revenue sharing
with the GoAP and allowing KSPL to undertake additional/ new developments at the port at the same
terms and conditions of the existing agreement.

In 2009, the principal shareholder L&T sold its stake in KSPL to Kakinada Infrastructure Holdings Pvt.

-- 82 --
Ltd. (KIHPL). KIHPL also purchased the 2% stake held by SMIPL and now holds the single largest
stake in KSPL. The revised shareholding pattern of the company is as follows: KIHPL – 41%; Everlink
Asia Investments Ltd. (owned by the Salgaocar Group) - 30% and Konsortium Ports Pte Ltd. (and its
associate) - 29%. KSPL plans to expand its capacity by 3 million tonnes by constructing an additional
berth with facilities for handling edible oil, other liquid and general cargo at an investment of Rs. 150 –
200 crore.

Key Learning and Observations

Level Playing Field: During the bid process/ tendering stage, the Government had indicated that the
private developer would get complete rights for development of Port. However, during the award of the
project, there were restrictions in terms of the anchorage port that will be operating in parallel. One of
the key reasons for the disputes between KSPL and GoAP was the restrictions on the cargo that KDWP
could handle. In order to protect the volume of cargo at the existing anchorage port, GoAP did not
provide a level playing field to KSPL thus affecting the traffic to an extent. While this issue was resolved
subsequently, ideally it should have been dealt with at the inception stage to prevent an adverse impact
on the project.

MGA to the Government: The revenue maximization approach of the Government by insisting on a
minimum guaranteed amount put substantial pressure on the project and could have derailed it. The
government had to eventually agree to an elimination of this stipulation.

Technical Due Diligence: There were a number of issues with respect to the port assets such as
cavities in the diaphragm wall, additional dredging requirement and requirement for removal of
boulders. Since this was a brownfield asset being privatised, the government should have undertaken a
detailed technical due diligence of the project site to accurately estimate the investment requirement.

Stakeholder Consultation: The project experienced social unrest with strikes by employees of the
anchorage port against the deep water port’s operations. A stakeholder consultation prior to the
appointment of the private operator where various affected parties would have been taken into
confidence could have prevented such disruptions.

Resolution of Issues through Mutual Discussions: The noteworthy learning from this project is the
amendments that were made in the terms of the concession agreement through mutual discussions
without abandoning the project. Despite the nature of the issues such as MGA and the term of the
concession agreement, both GoAP and KSPL mutually agreed to modify the agreement and ensured
continuity of the project.

Competing Facilities and Better Packages: Newer ports such as the Gangavaram Port and the
Krishnapatnam Port have given tough competition to KDWP. Both these ports had competitive
advantages in terms of being Greenfield ports, availability of huge land for future expansion, longer
concession period and better concession terms because of the evolution of concession agreements
and risk sharing mechanisms in the country. Thus while KDWP was at a disadvantage initially, its
concession terms were modified to bridge the gap.
