The present Patna RFD project will be implemented by NGRBA and for that assistance has been sought from World Bank. According to screening study and as per NGRBA’s framework the project falls under high impact category and hence an EIA study is required along with specific EMP. Also as per World Bank’s safeguard policy (OP: 4.01: Environment Assessment) an Environmental Assessment may be required if the proposed development work envisages to have some impact (adverse or positive) to surrounding environment.
