Control EMS aspects are aspects that SNGPL can directly manage through its organizational structure and responsibilities
Influenced EMS aspects are aspects generated on-site that the SNGPL does not directly control, but over which the SNGPL has same authority (i.e. through contractual obligations) or persuasion. Overall environment goal, arising from the HSE Policy, that SNGPL sets itself to achieve, and which is required where practicable. Detailed performance requirement quantified where applicable to

the SNGPL or parts thereof that arises from the environmental, objectives and needs to be set and met in order to achieve those objectives.

PROCEDURE: 5.1 IDENTIFICATION OF EMS ASPECTS: 5.1.1 A HSC trained by the IMS Management Representative shall identify Environmental aspects of operations that can be controlled or influenced. This information will be documented on the Environmental Risk Assessment (SNGPL-EPR01-F-006). 5.1.2 Following shall be considered while identifying Environmental aspects by an assessment of the, activities and services, together with consideration of the actual and potential effects of: a) Air Emissions to atmosphere b) Water usage and discharges to surface water groundwater and sewers c) Land Contamination caused by spillages, etc. d) The production, re-use, recycling and disposal of controlled and special wastes e) The storage and management of materials f) Activities upon local ecology of operations, sites and premises

g) The visual impact of sites and buildings h) Environmental Noise pollution i) Energy use and management j) Use of transport and vehicles k) Material used l) Organization and site information m) Legal issues and other requirements n) Existing environmental management o) Raw materials p) Packaging q) Office activities r) Landscaping and infrastructure s) Other relevant issues such as odors, particulates, lighting & pests 5.1.3 The team shall consider each of the stages in the life cycle of the SNGPL services and activities, including (where appropriate) a) transmission b) Distribution c) Use / Service and d) Disposal / Waste Management 5.1.4 Once the impacts have been identified they are prioritized in terms of their environmental impacts to assist in using them for setting objectives and targets and for identifying operational control procedures. Each aspect identified shall be assigned a significance rating to indicate the relative importance if its related environmental impacts. The significance rating shall be used to define those impacts which shall be controlled through environmental objectives and targets, or by the implementation of operational control procedures. 5.1.5 Impacts shall be assessed by the HSC using the following method: All aspects which are legitimate concerns of major stakeholders and the Company shall be regarded as significant, if necessary controls have Not been implemented. All aspects which are subject to environmental legislation shall be regarded as significant, and therefore noted as having a high impact/risk, if there is a breach or potential breach of legislation. All aspects where insufficient information is available to make a reasoned judgement shall be regarded as significant until further information is available. The risk evaluation process is to be carried out by competent / trained Personnel The risk assessment methodology is assessed using the Environmental Risk Assessment Chart SNGPL-EPR01-CH-001 The intention is to reduce the impact As Low As Reasonably

Practicable (ALARP) Having assigned a priority score for each environmental aspect and Impact the following table suggests timeframes for managing different Priority environmental aspects and impacts. (Actual timeframe should be agreed with consultation of HOD and MR) Total Level of significance Risk score Low level of concern 1-9 Low 10 - 15 Medium level of concern Medium High 15 - 20 High level of concern Action Long term Medium term Short term Timeframe 1 year + Within 6 months Within 3 months
5.1.6 For Environmental Aspects evaluations following categories shall be considered. A) Human Health a) Employees B) Environment a) Air Quality e) Noise C) Resource Use a) Electricity b) Surrounding Community c) Global.
b) Surface Water c) Ground Water d) Land / Soil f) Ecosystem Effects b) Fuels c) Water d) Natural Resources
5.1.7 Using pertinent plant information of SNGPL (e.g. process flow diagram, plant layout maps, operational manual, etc), the HSC will document all relevant activities, processes and services in which to identify aspects. 5.1.7 The HSC will identify the specific environmental aspects using
Environmental Aspects Checklist (SNGPL-EPR01-CHKLST-001) as well as
the following general aspect categories, but not necessarily be limited to, the following. a) Air Emissions b) Wastewater Discharges c) Liquid & Solid Wastes d) Energy Usage e) Storm water Discharges f) Water Usage g) Noise h) Odor i) Natural Environment j) Land Condition k) Radiation

5.1.8 Lists of the aspects identified shall be maintained and shall be reviewed by the HSC at least half yearly or whenever need arises to identify any new aspects that should be added and any old aspects that should be deleted. 5.2 DETERMINATION OF SIGNIFICANT ASPECTS: 5.2.1 The HSC shall review and evaluate the aspects identified and shall determine their significance using the criteria in 5.2.2 below, where a new aspect is incorporated into the List of Significant Environmental Aspects (SNGPL-EPR01-F-007) . It shall be reviewed and evaluated by HSC to determine significance. 5.2.2 The EMS aspects of the SNGPL may be considered by the HSC to be Significant where the aspects: 5.2.2.1 Is subject to relevant legislation, regulation, permit requirements, and / or other requirements. This will likely include aspects associated with activities if: a) EMS regulations or other requirements specify controls and conditions, b) Information must be provided to outside authorities, and / or c) There are or may be periodic inspections or enforcement by these authorities. This will also include aspects that are addressed in the SNGPL business plan or other applicable documents. 5.2.2.2 Is subject to a potential accidental release (Liquid or Gas only) that is regulated or that could be of sufficient quantity to cause environmental concern. These aspects shall be managed and controlled through implementation of procedures Emergency Preparedness and Response (Ref: SNGPL-GPR-013). Pertains to Energy Usage / Conservation Is subject to high environmental loading due to one or more of the following criteria: a) Toxicity (Compositional characterization of materials and wastes) b) SNGPL Specification-- (Restricted Substance Management
Standard)
5.2.2.3 5.2.2.4
c) Quantity (Volumes and Masses of Releases) d) Quality (Consumption of Renewable and Non-Renewable recourses) e) Frequencies of Episodes f) Severity of Actual or Potential Impacts
