DESCRIPTION OF APPROACH, METHODOLOGY AND WORK PLAN

FOR PERFORMING THE ASSIGNMENT

4.1

Introduction

Nepal, officially the Federal Democratic Republic of Nepal, is a landlocked

country located in South Asia.
Nepal has an area of 147,181 square kilometers and a population of
approximately 27 million. Nepal is the world's 93rd largest country by land
mass and the 41st most populous country. It is located in the Himalayas and
bordered to the north by the People's Republic of China, and to the south, east,
and west by the Republic of India. Specifically, the Indian states
of Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, West Bengal, and Sikkim border Nepal,
whereas across the Himalayas lies the Tibet Autonomous Region. Nepal is
separated from Bangladesh by the narrow Indian Siliguri Corridor. Kathmandu is
the nation's capital and largest metropolis.
The mountainous north of Nepal has eight of the world's ten tallest mountains,
including the highest point on Earth, Mount Everest, called Sagarmatha in
the Nepali language. More than 240 peaks over 20,000 ft (6,096 m) above sea
level are located in Nepal. The southern Terai region is fertile and
humid. Lumbini, the birthplace of Lord Gautama Buddha, is located in this region.
Lumbini is one of the holiest places of the Buddhist religion; it contains important
evidence about the nature of Buddhist pilgrimages dating from as early as the
3rd century BCE.
Hinduism is practiced by about 81.3% of Nepalis, making it the country with the
highest percentage of Hindus. Buddhism is linked historically with Nepal and is
practiced
by
9%, Islam by
4.4%, Kiratism 3.1%, Christianity 1.4%, and animism 0.4%. A large portion of the
population, especially in the hill region, may identify themselves as both Hindu
and Buddhist, which can be attributed to the syncretic nature of Hinduism and
Buddhism in Nepal.
A monarchy throughout most of its history, Nepal was ruled by the Shah
dynasty of kings from 1768, when Prithvi Narayan Shah unified its many small
kingdoms until 2008. A decade-long Civil War involving the Communist Party of
Nepal and several weeks of mass protests by all major political parties led to the
12-point agreement of 22 November 2005. The ensuing elections for the1st
Nepalese Constituent Assembly on 28 May 2008 overwhelmingly favored the
abolition
of
the
monarchy
and
the
establishment
of
a federal multiparty representative democratic republic.
Nepal remains isolated from the world's major land, air and sea transport routes
although, within the country, aviation is in a better state, with 47 airports, 11 of
them with paved runways; flights are frequent and support a sizable traffic. The
hilly and mountainous terrain in the northern two-thirds of the country has made
the building of roads and other infrastructure difficult and expensive. In 2007
there were just over 10,142 km (6,302 mi) of paved roads, and 7,140 km
(4,437 mi) of unpaved road and one 59 km (37 mi) railway line in the south.
Technical Proposal

[96]

There is a single reliable road route from India to the Kathmandu Valley. More
than one-third of its people live at least a two hours walk from the nearest allseason road; 15 out of 75 district headquarters are not connected by road. In
addition, some 60% of road network and most rural roads are not operable
during the rainy season.[97] The only practical seaport of entry for goods bound
for Kathmandu is Calcutta in India. Internally, the poor state of development of
the road system makes access to markets, schools, and health clinics a
challenge.
4.2

Understanding of Project Objectives

The Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal, has invited proposals to provide the
consultancy services for the, Air Transport Project Preparatory Facility. The RFP
has been issued to the JV formed by M/s Intercontinental Consultants and
Technocrats Pvt. Ltd. (ICT), India; The SAP Group LLC, USA; Snow Holdings, UK;
Virender Khanna & Associates, India and Full Bright Consultancy (Pvt.) Ltd, Nepal.
Based on the RFP and the clarifications furnished thereafter, the JV group is
submitting the technical and financial proposals for carrying out the consultancy
services for the above project.
Given an opportunity, the team is keen to contribute positively in carrying out
the challenging task set out by the CAAN and it is hoped that our approach and
interest are communicated effectively throughout our submission. This Chapter
presents a description of our Approach, Methodology and Work Plan for
performing the assignment keeping in view the Terms of Reference furnished by
the CAAN and our appreciation of the project parameters.
In formulating the Approach and Methodology, the Consultants have given
detailed consideration to the objectives of the project, Scope of Consultancy
Services and all other relevant aspects. In giving final shape to this methodology,
the Consultants have also drawn on the extensive international experience they
have gained from similar projects undertaken during the recent years,
particularly from their vast experience of projects in other African and Asian
countries funded by various Financial Institutions.
The Consultancy assignment aims to review the current master plan ( 20102028) of TIA, to carryout detail engineering design and preparation of bidding
documents for procurement of works and equipment, and to assist the CAAN to
undertake public private partnership project in future development/ improvement
projects.
4.3 Site Appreciation to Understand the Field Situation / Description

Turn Pad: The RWY ends in a turn pad in both thresholds, and it is the only way
for aircrafts to turn around as the parallel taxiway doesnt reach both ends.
o:.
o RWY strip/RESA The RWY has a strip of 3140 x 150 Sq. m.Only northern part
of the RWY has RESA. Currently it is only 90 m long from the end of the strip (as
opposed to the ICAO recommended RESA length of 240 m), due to the land
falling away steeply.
o CWY RWY has CWY in both ends: 02 (245 x 150 m) and 20 (150 x 150 m)
Taxiway
The airfield has a parallel taxiway, but it doesnt reach both RWY ends.
Furthermore, there
are five exit taxiways (TWY1, TWY2, TWY3, TWY4 and TWY5, starting from
THR20) which
link the RWY and the TWY. They are 23 m wide and made of bituminous surface.
Distance between RWY and TWY (109 m) is not enough to comply with ICAO
standards,
and is less than the required for any of the passenger jet aircraft operating in the
airport.
In the airfield there is also a decommissioned cross runway, which is being used
now as a
taxiway to reach the hangars.
Apron
There are two civil aprons in the airport: one for domestic traffic and other for
international
operations. Both of them are served like remote aprons, to which passengers
reach by bus.
The international one is located in front of the international terminal building and
has 9
aircraft parking positions.
The domestic apron is further from the domestic terminal and is located near
THR20. It has enough space to house 25 aircrafts. There is also a military and
maintenance apron, apart from the previously commented, and an helicopter
apron located at the end of decommissioned cross runway.
The helicopter landing area is located east of the runway opposite to TWY2 and
TWY3.
According to AIP, apron surface is made of cement concrete.
AIRPORT ACTIVITIES SUBSYSTEM
Navigation and landing aids
Technical Proposal

The airport has four radio aids: NDB (KAM), VOR/DME (KTM) and two locators,
Nalinchowk
(LNC) and Thecho (LTH).
There is an Approach Lighting System Cat-1 of high intensity on extended center
line up to a distance of 870m for Runway- 02. Precision Approach Path Indicator
(PAPI) System has been provided at both ends of the runway. The airport has a
Meteorological office to provide Meteorological Report (METAR) data to the
Control Tower ( TWR), Area Control Centre ( ACC ) and Approach Control units of
Air Traffic Services. Meteorological Services are available during airport operation
hours. Aerodrome, Aircraft Parking (Int. and Domestic), Aerodrome Ground
Movement, Slope Longitudinal Profile, Aerodrome Obstacle, Visual Aerodrome
Traffic, Standard Departure, Standard Terminal Arrival Route, Instrumental
Approach, TIA Controlled Airspace, Kathmandu Terminal Area, IFR Holdings, VFR
Holdings, Mountain Flight Route Charts are available in the AIP document.
Markings and lighting
Centre lines are marked in RWY and TWY. Furthermore, RWY has Designation,
THR, TDZ and edge marks. TWY has holding positions at all RWY/TWY
iqqntersections marked. In the apron taxiing guidance signs at all intersections
with TWY and RWY and at all holding positions, guide lines and nose-in guidance
at aircrafts stands are marked. There are also stop bars, where
appropriate.According to the AIP there are RWY end, THR and edge lights and
TWY edge lights.
Rescue and Fire Fighting Service
According to the AIP the Category for firefighting is Category IX.
Fuelling facilities
Jet A1 is available during operation hours. It is provided by Nepal Oil Corporation.
There are six trucks, 1, 20,000 Liters, 1000 Liters/min.
Passenger facilities: Terminal building and car parking
The airport has three terminal buildings: domestic, international and VVIP.
The Domestic terminal is located the nearest THR20. Only passengers can enter
the building, as there is a policeman controlling it. There is a security control with
two metal detectors and two X-Ray machines (men and women) and once it is
crossed, there is a hall in which companies have their own counters for
passengers to do the check-in. Then the passengers pass another security
control to access the boarding hall, where two boarding gates can be found,
apart from a restaurant and some other facilities. Boarding gates end directly in
the apron, where buses take the passengers to the domestic apron and their
corresponding aircraft. There is not arrival lounge in this terminal, but
passengers are conducted directly to a covered shed outside the building where
baggage claim is located.
The international terminal is located in front of the international apron, lightly
nearer to THR20
than the domestic terminal. It has two entrance halls and airlines counters are
distributed between both of them. In this case counters are flexible, not property
of each company. Before entering this lounge, passengers must pass a security
control in which their baggage is controlled (once it is checked in, not all the
luggage is controlled). Then passengers go upstairs to the immigration control,
where some passport controls are sited, and pass a security control to enter the
boarding area. There are five international boarding gates, which access directly
the apron.
In the same way, arrival passengers enter the building by foot and reach the
passport control, where Visa must be obtained. Once they have passed the
immigration control they go downstairs to the baggage claim lounge, where
there are three baggage belts. The meters and greeters waiting area is located
outside the terminal building, in front of the gate for passengers to leave the
building.
VVIP terminal building is located just in front of the domestic apron.
Technical Proposal

There is a parking for vehicles in front of the international terminal building and a
remote car park for the domestic terminal, so passengers have to walk under
covered walkways to the terminal.
Handling facilities/Hangar
There are many hangars in the airport. At the end of the decommissioned cross
runway there are two of them, property of Buddha Air and Yeti Airlines. Between
the domestic and the international aprons there are two more hangars: a military
one and a NAC (Nepal Airlines Company) maintenance hangar.
Cargo handling
The Cargo Handling is being done by the Airlines.
Operating capacity and obstacles
Due to both weather and very high and hazardous terrain around the airport, all
IFR traffic lands from the south and takes off towards the south. Normally from
July/August to November/December, cases of bird concentration and bird strikes
at or in the vicinity of the aerodrome have been reported now and then. In other
months stray birds may be encountered occasionally. Lots of measures have
been adopted to control these birds concentrations, including driving them
through guards and security personnel. According to the AIP there are 33
obstacles, which can be consulted in the AIP.

collected for comprehensive analysis. A survey team for the same shall be
identified and a suitable draft format devised for the collection of data.
4.4 General Approach
The general approach of the Consultants to undertake the service is to
provide multi-disciplinary expertise each with an element of excellence, as
role of the each discipline is crucial for the success of the endeavor. The
Consultants dedicated team proposed for the assignment has been drawn
from a pool of several eminent engineers and professionals with extensive
experience in the field of airport master planning, architectural planning,
airport engineering, airport logistics, airport design, navigational aids,
runway lighting, E&M services, financial & economic planning, regulatory
and operational aspects and environmental / social studies. The team will
ensure:

The closest possible liaison between the Consultants team and CAAN,

and

To provide high quality services for successful implementation of the

project within the budgeted cost.

The Consultants approach for carrying out the services is based on their
extensive experience of successful completion of similar projects. For
successful and efficient rendering of services, the Consultants proposes to
take a sound engineering / professional approach based on clear
understanding of the project, planning and systems approach. The
Technical Proposal

Consultants shall give special emphasis to maintain the quality of services

to be provided.
4.5 Quality Assurance Plan
Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt. Ltd. is an ISO 9001:2008
certified firm with commitment to deliver a quality product. The Quality
Assurance (QA) system will be based on the premise that at least two
independent, responsible and qualified professionals agree on the
correctness of each work output before it is delivered or used as input for
another task. This will ensure that the final documents and design efforts in
the Detailed Project Report are of high quality.
Equally important is the level of interaction between the Consultants and
the CAAN During the project preparation stage, the Consultants will interact
frequently with the CAAN and hold joint reviews on various technical
aspects so as to ensure high quality work covering all tasks under the scope
of work.
For preparation of the project, following elements are considered essential
to maintain quality:

The QA system will be developed to meet the specific requirements of

the project depending upon the type of the facility, design criteria,
design life and the acceptable level of quality.

Document verification, file supervision and quality control procedures on

various surveys and site investigations.

Selection of quality materials and design techniques.

Development of design
acceptance criteria.

Design verification - At every appropriate stage of design preparation,

design verification will be performed to ensure that the final product,
while conforming to all relevant laid-down standards and specifications,
is cost effective and can be easily implemented at site. The design
verification will include tasks such as performing alternate calculations,
adoption of proven design methods / concepts etc. The QA system will
be designed to achieve, sustain and improve the quality of service, and
to assure the CAAN that internal controls are effective and adequate and
fully conform to the requirements of the codes and technical
specifications. Quality Assurance will be an integral part of every work
function and will be essentially the system of planning, organizing and
controlling human skills to assure their compliance. Accordingly, each
of the significant engineering process and sequence of steps that are to
be followed by the survey / investigation and design teams will be clearly
spelt out. Step-by-step procedures defining clearly the responsibilities of
each process, will be evolved for various surveys, investigations and
designs like topographic surveys, material and geo-technical
investigations, study of water and power supply, drainage and sewerage
system, inventory and condition surveys for existing pavements, design
of pavement, Environmental and Social Mitigation Management Program
(ESMP), etc.

Updating Airport Master Plan and Land use plan

The aim of the Airport Master Plan is to achieve the required capacity for
aircraft, passenger, cargo and vehicular movement with maximum passenger,
operator and staff convenience at lowest capital and operating cost at each
stage of its implementation. The airport master plan is to be drawn defining very
clearly the ultimate development needs and the role of the airport.

The primary goal of the Master Plan update will be to create a current and
future development program that will create and sustain safe, efficient,
economical and environmentally acceptable airport facilities for the region. It is
to achieve the most optimum and effective movement of the following at the
lowest operating and maintenance cost:

Aircraft of different mix

Passenger, cargo and vehicular movement

Airport staff

The master plan is prepared to define ultimate development needs of the

airport and can be executed in phases as per the Client prerogative. It must
identify predetermined trigger points for initiating each stage leading to the
ultimate development. Further, it is required to prepare a land use plan based on
noise contour.

The Consultants will prepare the Airport Master Plan including an Airport
Layout Plan (ALP) set in accordance with ICAO Airport Planning Manual Doc 9184AN/902 Part 1 and Annex 14 Aerodrome Design and Operations. The FAA
Advisory Circular 150/5070-6A Airport Master Plans and 150/5300-13 including
chapter 5 Airport Design will also be utilized and cross referenced to ensure the
airport complies with more stringent of the planning guidelines. The location of
each component facility will be guided by its functional requirement, separation
stipulation by ICAO and proposed expansion requirements. The area of each
component facility will be arrived at using the planning parameters and
established planning practices. The emphasis will be made on safe and smooth
aircraft operation and user friendliness. AMP will be prepared based on the
foregoing demands estimates and sectoral needs defined earlier. It indicates
sizing of project components based on traffic projections.

The Consultant shall prepare a noise contour plan based on the currently
