Key environmental & social issues
Environmental sensitivity of theAlbertine Graben established.
Biodiversity, Social-economic,Cultural heritage and Physicalenvironment baseline dataacquired.
Specialist studies e.g. elephantcollaring, giraffe, crocodile, fish andbird counts have been undertaken
Habitat mapping in Protected Areasand Ramsar sites has beenundertaken
5. MANAGEMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL & SOCIAL ISSUES5. MANAGEMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL & SOCIAL ISSUES
The plan sets out the indicators to bemonitored under above thematicareas.
The monitoring frequency andresponsible Government Institutionare stated in the Plan.
Development of a National Oil Spilland Contingency Plan is currently inprogress
Review of various environment lawsincluding the National EnvironmentAct, 1995, EIA regulations, WasteManagement regulations, Noise andVibrations is under way
Management of HSE and social issues
Environmental Impact Assessmentand Annual undertaken for all projectslikely to have an impact on theEnvironment. (Tilenga, KFDA andEACOP)
A 5 year Environmental monitoringframework for Albertine Graben wasbeen developed and will be reviewed
Valued Ecosystem Components(VECs) under five thematic areas(aquatic, terrestrial, physical-chemical,society and management and businessissues were identified.
A Strategic Environmental Assessment(SEA) of petroleum operations wasundertaken to ensure thatenvironmental issues and concerns areconsidered during early decision makingand integrated into laws/regulationsand major Policies, Plans and Programs(PPPs) associated with the sector.
The SEA registered and analysed morethan 135 issues and made 18 salientrecommendations.
A multi-Institutional Implementationcommittee has been formed under thesupervision of the Cabinet Committeeon oil and gas to implement therecommendations.
Management of HSE and social issues
Environmentally friendly technology e.g.low energy and cable-less technologyduring seismic acquisition in MFNP
Precautions and safeguards e.g. wastecontainerisation outside ProtectedAreas.
Development, review and update ofenvironment legislation, standards andguidelines
24/7 field monitoring of operations
Regular engagements with oilcompanies, relevant Government MDAsand other stakeholders including media,CSOs and host communities
Management of HSE and social issues
6. CONCLUSIONThe emerging petroleum sector in Uganda has a highpotential to contribute significantly to the economy,industrialisation and wealth creation plans. As governmentand all other relevant stakeholders including CSOs, we needto strengthen our regulatory and oversight roles to ensurethat Health Safety and Environment protection requirementsand guidelines are rigorously followed in the oil and gassector. Success lies in:
1. Right policies.
2. Clear laws, regulations, guidelines and standards.
3. Strong regulating Institutions and relevantstakeholders with oversight role
4. Effective monitoring and supervisory strategy.
