conciliation, or compulsory adjudication.

deviations, these are report to Energy Minister and OSINERGMIN. SNPP implement treatment plants for sewage in the camps of production centers. In case of deviations, these are report to
Energy Minister and OSINERGMIN.
Cheves: There are two main categories of water discharges during construction activities of Cheves HPP Project:

Domestic Effluents: Cheves HPP project has two sources of domestic effluents: Pampa Libre and Mirahuay Camps. Both are related with settled personnel at site. Sewage water has
an aerobic treatment and after it effluent could be used for road and work fronts watering; and, direct discharges to Huaura River. C contractor is in charge of treatment plant
operation and regular monitoring campaigns in order to ensure operational efficiency. By the way, Cheves is going to hire a laboratory to start monthly monitoring campaigns in order
to follow up discharges to rivers. This monthly campaigns shall start in 2012.

Industrial (perforation) Effluents: These effluents could have in their composition: oil & greases, suspended solid particles related with shotcrete and drilling activities and thermal
water. An effluent characterization was developed in July and September and ions with relevant concentrations are silicon, calcium, magnesium, potassium and sodium. Peruvian legal
framework related with Maximum Permissible Limits only command us to check: oil & greases, pH, temperature and total solid suspended. C Contractor is in charge of the
implementation and operation of treatment plants and to develop monitoring programs in order to ensure properly operational performance. Despite it, C Contractor has serious delays
in full implementation of treatment plants, according with their own method statements. Cheves is going to include all industrial effluent treatment plants in monthly campaigns that
are going to start in 2012, in order to grantee correct treatment and good operational performance.
