Yearbooks and Reports

Environmental Impact Assessment

In 2015, Mandai Wildlife Group (MWG) gazetted the results of an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) for its plans to develop the area surrounding Singapore’s zoological parks in Mandai into an integrated wildlife and nature destination that promotes sustainability and wildlife conservation. The Mandai EIA Report was commissioned by MWG and undertaken at a conceptual design stage, prior to development work. It surveys the baseline environmental conditions within the project site and evaluates potential environmental impact of the project. The Mandai EIA Report also includes recommended mitigation measures and an Environmental Management and Monitoring Plan (EMMP), which were approved by the relevant government agencies. An Environmental Advisory Panel (EAP) provided guidance and oversight for the EMMP.

Since the publication of the Mandai EIA Report, regular discussions on environmental management have continued with various stakeholders. As far as possible, design development and construction methods were aligned with the environmental management requirements stated in the Mandai EIA Report. However, as the project progressed into the detailed design development and construction phases, some refinements and/or changes in environmental management requirements were made so as to better account for unexpected developments, practicality and feasibility.

For revisions in designs and/or changes in environmental management measures from that in the Mandai EIA Report, MWG has adhered to the required Change Management process and conducted a series of consultations with its EAP and representatives from the nature community. Thereafter, approvals from the relevant government agencies are sought to formalise the changes to the Mandai EIA Report.

A summary of design updates and approved changes to requirements listed in the Mandai EIA Report can be found in the Addendum. The Addendum shall be read in conjunction with MWG’s EIA Report dated 26 September 2016 and shall form part of the Mandai EIA Report.

The Mandai EIA Report along with the Addendum, are available for reference below.
