Criterion 4.4<br />
Practices maintain the quality and availability of surface and ground water<br />
PTTN has an implemented water management plan, such as : reuse condensate water from Cooling<br />
turbine into Water Treatment, using condensate from steam boiler as water dilution mixing in CPO<br />
processing, minimize water leakages from water pipes in the mill and estates, using dust conveyor<br />
instead of using water for dust collector boiler, installing float switch to all bathrooms. Record of<br />
water using per ton FFB is available, there is reduction from 1.24 m3 water/ t FFB in 2008 to 1.15m3<br />
water/ t FFB in 2010.. BOD Analysis of surface water is tested regularly by SMARTRI laboratory, the<br />
last record dated on 01. 06.2011. The BOD levels and other parameters such as pH must comply with<br />
the local requirements in the Liquid Waste regulations in environmental decree by Province of North<br />
Sumatra . The BOD data are submitted six-monthly in RKL/ RPL to BAPEDALDA (Regional<br />
Environmental Monitoring Body). Checks on records show that all the data complied with regulation.<br />
The auditor team checked that there were installation of chemical traps and oil traps in the mill to<br />
avoid water and soil contamination around the mill. To avoid the contamination of river water, HCV or<br />
riparian zones are in the process of being restored along the river banks. There are several sign<br />
boards of HCV 4.1 to warn people for not hunting and fishing and to remind workers for not applying<br />
fertilizer and pesticides to the palms in the riparian zones – a 50 meter belt along the river banks on<br />
both sides. Palms with red x markings within the riparian zones will not be maintained. No new<br />
palms will be planted in the riparian zones during replanting. SOP HCV monitoring in the riparian<br />
zone has been established and the records is well maintained. PTTN also established SOP agrochemicals<br />
mixing to avoid mixing of agro-chemicals in proximity of water courses, interview with<br />
spraying workers confirmed that they understood the both of the SOPs well.<br />
Compliance Status : Full.<br />

Criterion 4.5<br />
Pests, diseases, weeds and invasive introduced species are effectively managed using<br />
appropriate Integrated Pest Management (IPM) techniques<br />
PTTN has formulated an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) as recorded in “Laporan Sensus”,. PTTN<br />
practiced incorporating cultural, biological, mechanical or physical methods, by :<br />
1. Identification of pests, diseases and weeds before it become an outbreak of maximum level<br />
2. Introducing of beneficial plants for hosts of pests.<br />
3. Introduction Barn Owl (Tyto alba)<br />
4. Planting LCC<br />
5. Frond stacking<br />
6. Minimise use of agrochemicals.<br />
The use of pesticides is minimized through selective spraying instead of blanket spraying for cases of<br />
severe infestation of weeds.. Oil Palm Leaf Eater Control includes detection, cencus, examination,<br />
treatments, evaluation, monitoring and organisation. Checks on records confirmed there was no<br />
outbreak during the last 5 years. Planting beneficial plants, such as Bunga pukul delapan (Turnera<br />
