Justification of The Project

Due to growing demand in domestic and export market the present facility at Daman and

Roorkee are not able to fulfill the requirement of customer needs

Jesons Industries Limited has no manufacturing facilities in southern part of India hence

planned to construct new facilities in Thervoykandigai.

Jesons Industries Limited has good market in south region hence to fulfill the demand Jesons

Industries Limited has planned to construct the facilities in south.

To reduce the transportation cost to bring the product from northern plant to south market.

Since Chennai is located close to both Ennore and Chennai Port, and SIPCOT has already an

Industrial Estate located at Thervoykandigai, the site was selected for manufacturing facility by

Jesons Industries Limited.

Description of The Environment

Air Quality Environment

Six ambient air quality monitoring were done within a radius of 5 km from the project site during

March to May 2015. Parameters such as VOC, heavy metals, gaseous pollutants and particulate

matter were analyzed. PM2.5 ranged from 21 to 25 μg/m3 across the monitoring locations, PM10

ranged from 48 to 55 μg/m3, SO2 varied between 10 to 15μg/m3, NO2 varied between 24 to 31

μg/m3, NH3, TVOC and other NAAQ parameters like O3 , Pb , CO were below detectable limits.

All the parameters of NAAQ standards were found within the prescribed limits.

Noise Environment

The prevailing ambient noise levels at study area were monitored at six locations within 5 km

radius. The field observations during the study period indicate that the ambient noise levels(Leq)

during day and night in the study area ranged from 45 to 60 dB(A) and from 40 to 48 dB(A)

respectively and are well within the prescribed CPCB standards for industrial area.

Water Environment

Six sampling locations of three surface water and three ground water were selected within 5 km

radius of the site for physiochemical, heavy metals, and bacteriological parameters. The pH of the

surface water ranged from 6.08 to 8.18 across the sampling stations. The Electrical conductivity of

the samples ranged from 480 to 2020 µs/cm(Karadipdhur) across the sampling stations. The

concentration of Total Dissolved solids (TDS) ranged between 290 to 1360 mg/l (karadipuhur)

across the sampling stations. The concentration of chlorides varied from 79.3 to 328.4 mg/l

(Karadhipudhur). Rest of the parameters in the sampling stations were well within the prescribed

limits. The concentration of other parameters like Aluminum ,Chromium, Lead and Chromium

Note: No process effluent is generated from the reactor as the reaction is polymerization.

2.5.3 EFFLUENT GENERATION AND RECYCLING

There is no process effluent generation for the proposed project as it is

polymerization reaction. Sewage is generated from domestic use and

effluent is generated from floor and vessel washings, scrubber, DM plant

etc. The sewage generated is treated in Sewage Treatment Plant of 5 KLD

and the treated sewage is used for green belt development. The effluent is

treated in ETP of 8 KLD and Evaporator of 5 KL capacity. The treated

effluent is used for cooling tower make up and floor washings. Zero liquid



discharge system is proposed for the project. The total effluent generation

and recycling details are given in Table 2-5.

Baseline Environmental Status


3. BASELINE ENVIRONMENTAL STATUS

3.1 INTRODUCTION

Environment is a dynamic system which differs from place to place and changes over a period of

time. This change can be natural or anthropogenic. Natural changes occurring in the environment is

due to many factors and it is out of bounds to control by mankind. Anthropogenic changes or

impacts on the environment can be identified and suitable remedial measures can be implemented

to attenuate the impacts. To assess the impact of a project or activity it is necessary to generate

baseline environment information in the proposed project site. Base line environmental information

helps the decision makers to evaluate the present scenario and to predict the impact the project

might pose to the environment. Data on the prevailing environmental components such as air,

meteorology, water, noise, soil, ecology, and socio-economics are collected and analyzed.

3.2 Air and Meteorological Environment

The objective for collecting data on baseline ambient air quality is to predict the incremental

pollutant concentration that might occur during the construction and operation phase of the project.

If adverse impacts are anticipated suitable mitigation measures are proposed at the design stage of

the project itself. This survey gives information on type of air pollutant which will have significant

impact near the vicinity of the project location. To achieve this objective, 6 ambient air quality

stations are selected within a radius of 5 km from the project site. The air quality stations are

selected based on the predominant wind direction, wind speed and atmospheric stability category in

the region which governs the plume rise and dispersion of air pollutants. Selection of the stations

are also based on locations of existing sources of air pollution and sensitive receptors such as

hospitals, schools, thickly populated residential localities, elderly homes etc.

3.2.1 Reconnaissance

Reconnaissance survey was conducted upto 5 km radius from the project site which is located in

Northern part of Tamil Nadu in Thiruvallur District. The project site is situated in a flat terrain with

ground elevation varying from about 41 meters above mean sea level. The surrounding impact zone

of 5 km radial distance consisting of the rural, urban and industrial areas is marked. In general the

study area experiences predominant wind from W-NW and towards SE direction during the season

April to June, The baseline status of air environment includes identification of specific air pollution

parameters expected to have significant impacts and assessing their existing levels in ambient air



within the impact zone. The baseline status of air environment with respect to the identified air

pollutants can be assessed through air quality monitoring program using methodically designed air

monitoring network.

To establish the baseline monitoring status of air environment in the study area during the period of

April, 2014, 6 AAQM locations within the radius of 5 kms (with one station outside the radius)

were selected using network design criteria and monitored as per CPCB guidelines (Twice a week

sampling and 24 hr continuous sampling each day). The selected sampling locations reported in

Table 3-1and Figure 3-2 below. The pollutants were analyzed during ambient air quality

monitoring as listed in latest MoEF notification.

The background ambient air quality has been monitored for all the 12 parameters as per 16th

September 2009, NAAQ standards

3.2.2 Micro metrology

The study of micro-meteorological conditions of a particular region is of utmost importance to

understand the variations in ambient air quality status. The prevailing micrometeorology at project

site plays a crucial role in transport and dispersion of air pollutants released from the plant. The

persistence of the predominant wind direction and wind speed at the project site will decide the

direction and extent of the air pollution impact zone. The principal variables which affect the air

pollution dispersion and resultant air quality status micrometeorology are horizontal transport and

dispersion (average wind speed and directions), convective transport and vertical mixing

(atmospheric stability) and also topography of the area towards local influences.

For determining the prevailing micro-meteorological conditions during the study period, an

automatic continuous digital weather station was installed at project site. The location is chosen

such that there is no obstruction to the flow of wind and sunlight. The hourly meteorological data of

wind speed, wind direction, temperature and solar radiation were recorded at the project site. These

frequencies were computed on 8 hourly as well as 24 hourly basis and the corresponding results are

used to draw wind rose for 00-08hrs, 08-16 hrs, 16-24 hrs and 00-24hrs corresponding to study

period as shown in subsequent sections. The terrain is flat and elevation varied from 3-6 m above

mean sea level when one travels from coast and landward. The wind rose for the months of March,



April and May2014 shows the predominant winds from direction. The wind directions during the

study period are W-NW . Accordingly, the impact zone will be spread in SE-SSE directions. The

average wind speed observed during the study period is 3 m/sec with the considerable frequency of

a wind range of calm to about 22 km/hour. Due to its proximity with the Bay of Bengal, the

ambient temperature at project site ranged between 25-40°C while the relative humidity range from

49-79% at project site. The meteorological data collected during monitoring is used for

interpretation of baseline status and to simulate the meteorological conditions for prediction of

impacts in modeling studies.

3.3 NOISE ENVIRONMENT

The study area consists of 5 km radius from the site which consists of urban, rural and

industrial area. The noise generated due to operation of individual process units at an

industrial site cause significant impacts on the surrounding environment including nearby

residential areas. Such operations fall in the category of continuous primary sources. There

are also some secondary noise sources associated with almost all types of large scale

industrial projects, which are mainly vehicles used for transportation of materials as well as

employees and material handling equipment at the project site. However, such sources could

be categorized as intermittent noise sources.

The prevailing ambient noise level at a particular location is nothing but the resultant (total)

of all kinds of noise sources existing at various distances around that location. The ambient

noise level at a location varies continuously depending on the type of surrounding activities.

The ambient noise level generally does not reflect any seasonal variation, however, the wind

direction, rain, snow, fog or any other barrier as well as direction of source play significant

role in regulating the noise propagation and ultimately the intensity of impact.

The current status of noise environment around the existing Jesons Industries Limited

industries is assessed through identification of major noise sources, characterization of such

noise sources, measurement of prevailing ambient noise levels in the study area and

measurement of noise levels due to vehicular movements, according to existing land use

pattern. The prevailing noise levels in the neighboring industrial areas shall represent the

baseline status for assessment of noise impacts from proposed developments. The baseline

study for noise environment has been carried out through reconnaissance in the impact zone,

identification of representative sampling locations and monitoring of prevailing noise levels

during study period.


Reconnaissance survey was conducted to locate the existing noise generating sources and

identify suitable locations to evaluate background noise levels. The project site is located in

northcoast of Tamil Nadu in Thiruvallur district. The surrounding impact zone of 10 km

radial distance consisting of the rural, urban and industrial areas is marked.

Since the project site is located in industrial zone there is only few large scale industries

which contribute to baseline noise levels. The commercial activities in the individual

villages also influence the background noise levels. The noise levels in surrounding selected

villages, industrial complexes and junction of the state highways were monitored using a

precision noise level meter.

3.3.2 Community noise levels

The community noise is determined by recording the day-night noise level (Ldn). Ldn is

defined as the 24 hours equivalent sound level derived with a penalty of 10 dB (A) is added

to the measured instantaneous noise level measured during night time. i.e. from 2200 hrs to

0600 hrs. This is because the same level of noise during night time is more annoying than

day time. Ldn for a given location is calculated from hourly equivalent sound levels (Leq)

using the following equation:

Ldn = 10 log [1/24{16(10(Ld/10)) + 8(10(Ln+10)/10))}]

Where, Ld – equivalent noise level during day time (0600 to 2200 hrs)

Ln – equivalent noise level during night time (2200 to 0600 hrs)



3.3.3 Baseline Noise status

The prevailing ambient noise levels along, the sites were monitored at 6 locations. During the

study period day time noise levels varied between50 to 65dB (A)across the sampling stations

and night time noise levels varied from40 to 60 dB (A) across the sampling stations. The

details of the monitoring stations are presented in Table 3-5. The field observations during

the study period indicate that the ambient noise levels in the study area were well within the

prescribed standards at all the different noise zones prescribed by CPCB.

Limits set by CPCB

Industrial Area :Day Time -75 dB (A); Night Time - 70 dB (A)

Commercial :Day Time -65 dB (A); Night Time - 55 dB (A)

Residential Area :Day Time -55 dB (A); Night Time -45 dB (A)

Silence Zone :Day Time -50 dB (A); Night Time - 40 dB (A)

3.4 WATER ENVIRONMENT

The study area has medium sized water courses namely Thervoy Lake, Kollanur pond,

Korttalaiyar River etc...

Hydrogeology

The project study area is underlain by both porous and fissured formations. The important

aquifer systems in the district are constituted by

unconsolidated & semi-consolidated formations

weathered, fissured and fractured crystalline rocks.

The porous formations in the area include sandstones and clays of Jurassic age (Upper

Gondwana), marine sediments of Cretaceous age, Sandstones of Tertiary age and Recent

alluvial formations. As the Gondwana formations are well-compacted and poorly jointed,

the movement of ground water in these formations is mostly restricted to shallow levels.

Ground water occurs under phreatic to semi-confined conditions in the inter-granular pore

spaces in sands and sandstones and the bedding planes and thin fractures in shales. In the

area underlain by Cretaceous sediments, ground water development is rather poor due to the

rugged nature of the terrain and the poor quality of the formation water. Quaternary

formations comprising mainly sands, clays and gravels are confined to major drainage

courses in the district. The maximum thickness of alluvium is 30.0 m. whereas the average

thickness is about 15.0 m. Ground water occurs under phreatic to semi-confined conditions in



these formations and is being developed by means of dug wells and filter points. Alluvium,

which forms a good aquifer system along the Araniyar and Korattalaiyar river bed which is

one of the major sources of water supply to urban areas of Chennai city and also to the

industrial units.

Ground water generally occurs under phreatic conditions in the weathered mantle and under

semi-confined conditions in the fissured and fractured zones at deeper levels. The thickness

of weathered zone in the district is in the range of 2 to 12 m. The depth of the wells ranged

from 8.00 to 15.00 m bgl.

The yield of large diameter wells tapping the weathered mantle of crystalline rocks ranges

from 100 to 500 lpm and are able to sustain pumping for 2 to 6 hours per day. The yield of

bore wells drilled down to a depth of 50 to 60 m ranges from 20 to 400 lpm. The yield of

successful bore wells drilled down to a depth of 150 m bgl during the ground water

exploration programme of Central Ground Water Board ranged from 1.2 to 7.6 lpm.



Figure 3-3 Hydro geological map of Thiruvallur district




Reconnaissance survey was undertaken to ascertain the location of water bodies viz streams,

rivers, lakes etc. The sampling stations were chosen based on the existing pollution sources

near these water bodies and threat of pollution in the future. The flow in the rivers passing

through the study region are seasonal, high flows occur during monsoon season and low flow

occurs during summer season. The region receives rainfall predominantly during monsoon

season with an average annual rainfall of about 1152 mm per year. The South west monsoon

season is from July – September and North east monsoon is from October to December.

Table 3-6 Rain fall data of Thiruvallur district.

Groundwater is the principal source for domestic and drinking purposes in almost all

villages near the study area. The water samples were collected and analyzed by standard test

methods which are given in table: The prevailing status of water quality has been assessed

during April - June. 2 sampling stations for ground water and 4 sampling stations for surface

water were selected for the study the details are given in Table 3.7and the findings of the

water quality monitoring study is summarized in Table 3.8.

3.6.1 Geomorphology

The prominent geomorphic units identified in the district through interpretation of Satellite

imagery are Alluvial Plain, Old River Courses, Shallow & deep buried Pediments, Pediments

and Structural Hills.

The elevation of the area ranges from 42 m above mean sea level (msl) in the west to sea level

in the east.. The major part of the area is characterized by an undulating topography with

innumerable depressions which are used as irrigation tanks.

The coastal tract is marked by three beach terraces with broad inter-terrace depressions. The

coastal plains display a fairly lower level or gently rolling surface and only slightly elevated

above the local water surfaces or rivers. The straight trend of the coastal tract is resultant of

development of vast alluvial plains. There are a number of dunes in the coastal tract. The

above geomorphologic map is taken from the Multi-temporal satellite data from Resourcesat-

1 LISS III

3.7 TERRESTRIAL ECOLOGY

The study of terrestrial ecology within the study area of 10 km radius has been carried out

through field investigation and satellite imagery data as discussed earlier. The area can be

classified into the following ecological zone.

3.7.1 Scrub Eco-system (Dry Evergreen Vegetation)

This type of ecosystem is dominated by Phoenix sylvestris species. Apart from typical scrub

jungle species, a few salt tolerant species were also recorded, probably because of the

proximity to the sea and the estuary.

3.7.2 Marsh Eco-system

The marshes are essentially fresh water supporting variety of plant. Acacia nilotica and

Azadirachata indica are the common species of the study area.

3.7.3 Agro Ecosystem

Rice and banana species of plant are the main species of this ecosystem.

3.7.4 Flora

The field investigation and satellite imagery data show, that the study area is a mixture of

agricultural, wasteland and get irrigated by the tanks and tube wells.



The dry tropical vegetation is observed within the study area. The experimental finding of the

pre monsoon season shows the dominance of grasses like Cyanodon dactylon followed by

Parthenium hysterophorus, Croton sparsiflorusand trees like Acacia nilotica, Azadirachta

indica, Annona squamosa, Delonix regia, Ficus benghalensis within the study area.

3.8 AQUATIC ECOLOGY

The specific biological species (Fishes, Phytoplankton, Zooplankton etc.) for a particular

environmental conditions are the best indicators of environmental conditions are the best indicators

of environmental quality. Information on the environmental stress due to the impacts of any

industrial activities on the community structure serves as inexpensive and efficient early warning

and control system to check the effectiveness of the measures to prevent damage to a particular

ecosystem.

3.8.1 Planktons

Phytoplankton and Zooplankton are indicators of environmental stress. The quality and

quality of such biological species in a particular environmental largely depends on various

physicochemical characteristics of water such as pH, Conductivity, nutrients, BOD, alkalinity

etc.

Anticipated Impacts and Mitigation Measures


4 ANTICIPATED ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS & MITIGATION MEASURES

4.1 IMPACT IDENTIFICATION

To identify and assess the impact of the proposed new facility for manufacturing, the entire project has

been divided into two phases:

1 Construction phase

2 Operational Phase

4.2 CONSTRUCTION AND COMMISSIONING PHASE

1 Foundation work for new machinery.

2 Erection of new mechanical equipment

3 Synchronization of various equipments / processes

4.2.1 Construction Phase Impacts

Construction cum commissioning phase of the project will be for a shorter duration as compared to

operational phase. As the main impacts of the construction phase are envisaged in terms of air pollution only, thisnatural mitigation would be significantly helpful in elimination of predicted impacts of the phase. Though Aesthetics

and Socio-economic factors are also identified, the impacts related to the same will be marginal. Local

man power will be used during this phase. Similarly, there will be no displacement and rehabilitation of

people due to the proposed new facility for manufacturing.

The following principal major impacts to the environment are considered for further planning of mitigation measures:

Release of construction materials and dust into the environment from the constructionsite/materials can spoil the surrounding air quality

Improper disposal of construction wastes can damage air, water and land quality.

The use of automobiles and machinery during construction can deteriorate the air quality andgenerate temporary emission.

The use of automobiles and machinery generates Noise pollution from construction activities.

The irregular working hours, & traffic, night-working, flood-lighting and transportation damagethe socioeconomic balance of surrounding region.

Effects may occur due to the accumulation of the contaminant in water resources & soil due touptake of construction material.

Short term heavy construction might cause increase in noise level



Effects on work place condition & human health due to the accidents during the constructionworks.

Effects on the socio-economic activity due to direct impacts or indirect impacts on socio-economic activities.

MITIGATION MEASURES FOR CONSTRUCTION PHASE The entire construction activities will be confined with the designated area inside the existing

premises.

The small amount of unused construction material shall be stored in proper area to utilisefurther in construction activities and surplus excavated material shall be disposed of in suitablepre-identified areas.

It is suggested that the construction waste containing sand, brick, gravel, cement etc. shall beused for filling or PCC for construction of internal road or project structures.

Construction material shall stored at adequate distance from the water storage in order toprevent any chances of accidental leakage or spillage which could pollute the water storage

Wherever required impervious lining shall be provided to storage premises to avoid accidentalmixing or mixing due to fugitive losses.

To reduce the dust generation on site wherever & whenever required water shall be sprinkledon ground or stock pile of excavated soil.

Equipments / machineries shall be used efficiently and shall be kept shut in order to reduce airemission, noise pollution and consumption of energy resource

Emission from the equipments/machineries shall be monitored on regular basis and possibleimplementation shall be provided on site

Transport vehicles shall be monitored & maintain regularly to control the emission quality andfuel consumption

Provision of necessary PPEs like face mask & eye-glasses to employees /labours engaged inconstruction activities.

The machineries/equipment used on site shall be of highly maintained so they do work withoptimum efficiency generating less noise pollution

Operation of machineries/equipment causing high noise level shall be stopped during the nighttime and all such operations shall be planned for day time only.

Transportation activities shall not be conducted during the night to avoid high noise level innearby villages/locality. Only in case of emergency the transportation activities shall be allowedin night time.



4.2.2 OPERATION PHASE

Because of its potential to create long-term impacts, this phase is very important from the environmental

impact point of view. The basic impacts like gaseous emissions, water consumption and solid waste will

have the potential to adversely affect air, water and land / soil in the vicinity of the project site.

This phase will broadly include the following direct and indirect activities / actions:

Storage and transportation of raw materials and finished products.

Gaseous emissions

Effluent Generation, treatment and disposal

Noise Generation

Solid waste generation

4.2.3 Air Environment

Base line data reveals that ambient air quality in the study area for the Parameters PM2.5, PM10, SO2,

NO2, are well within the permissible Limits as prescribed by the National Ambient Air Quality

Standards (NAAQ) for Industrial Area, Residential, Rural & Other area. Emission of PM, SOx& NOx

from stacks attached to Thermo pack and DGs are the only source of air pollution.

As it is observed from the above table, the proposed project would result in a reduction in the emission

load as it provide Scrubber to the stack and DG also with less capacity which used as backup during

power cut. In order to assess the air quality impact of the proposed new facility for manufacturing air

quality modelling was done using AERMOD software. Based on the Emission Details, Air Dispersion

Modelling was conducted in Roorke plant of Jesons Industries Limited and the estimated GLC’s is

shown in the Figure 4-1.

AERMOD Software Version 7.5.0 was used for dispersion modelling, site specific meteorological data

for three months (March, April and May 2015) were obtained from on site metrological monitoring

station. Data included in the data set were hourly wind speed, wind direction, temperature, relative

humidity, air pressure, precipitation etc

The emission from existing stack has been taken as basis for modeling are shown below:

*Emission load predicted when DG is in continuous operation (Worst case scenario), however DG will

be used only as a backup in case of power failure.

As seen from the above table the concentration levels arising from the proposed new facility for

manufacturing are within the NAAQ limits.

4.2.4 Water Environment

The proposed project facility will generate 4.4 KLD wastewater from domestic purposes and 5.8 KLD

wastewater from industrial processes. The sewage generated will be treated in STP & the treated water

will be used for gardening. The effluent generated from the process will be treated in ETP & disposed to

sea.. The specification of STP & ETP in attached in the Annexure 8 and Annexure 9 respectively.

4.2.5 Noise Environment

The impacts of the proposed new manufacturing on the noise levels of the surrounding areas were

surveyed. All equipments in the plant is designed/operated to have a noise level not exceeding 85 to 90

dB(A) as per the requirement of Occupational Health and Safety Administration Standard (OHSAS). In

addition, since most of the noise generating equipment would be in closed structures, the noise

transmitted outside would be still lower. The isopleths of the noise modeling is given as the Figure 4-9.

From the below model it can be inferred that the noise level at the surrounding vicinity of the site is

anticipated to be within the prescribed standards.



4.2.6 Flora And Fauna

Forest Area - Periya puliyur reserve foreset –2.27 Km south and Thervoy forest –2.75 Km NEis located.Wild Life -No wild life crossing is found along the project corridor.

Cattle Grazing - cattle grazing grounds have been found along the corridor of Impact.

Aquatic life –Thervoy lake is present at 0.69 km from the site. Sewage & Effluent generated

from the industry will be treated in STP & ETP. The treated sewage will be used for gardening.

The effluent generated from the site is treated and disposed in sea. The same method will be

followed for product change also. The treated effluent will meet the standards prescribed by the

Pollution Control Board and there is no significant impact on aquatic life.

4.3 IMPACT ASSESSMENT

A number of techniques are available for the assessment of impacts. Each of these techniques has their

own advantages and disadvantages. The selection of any of these techniques for any particular project

depends largely upon the choice of judgment of the analysis. The technique chosen should be

comprehensive, easy to understand, systematic and flexible. Considering these criteria, for this project,

the matrix method was used, with an impact scale of -4 to +4.

4.3.1 Matrix method

Impact identification and assessment of the site can be assessed by the matrix method, popularly known

as Leopold matrix method, which is a universal tool for the EIA studies. The matrix used for the EIA

consists of project activities on the x-axis and the environmental components likely to be affected by

these activities on the y-axis. Each cell of the matrix represents a subjective evaluation of the impact of

the particular components, in terms of magnitude importance. A blank cell indicates no impact of the

activity on the component. The magnitude (m) is represented by a number from 1-4 where,

1= minimal

2= appreciable

3= significant

4= severe

A positive sign indicates a beneficial impact and the negative sign indicates an adverse impact. The

importance (w) of the impact is given on a scale of 1-4 in each cell. This number indicates the relative

importance of the impact of the activity on the concerned component for this project. The magnitude and

importance are multiplied to give a score for each cell (mijwij). The scores of individual cells in each

row are added to determine the total impact of all project activities on each component. Similarly, the

scores in individual cells in each row are added to determine the total impact of each activity on all the



environmental components likely to be affected. The grand total of all cells indicate the total project

impact. This can be represented by the following equation:

Total project impact= mijwij

Where mij = (positive or negative) magnitude of the jth activity on the ith environmental component and

wij = importance of the jth activity on the ith environmental component

Since both m and n vary from 1-4 the total score in each cell can theoretically vary between -16 and +16,

therefore the total project impact can vary between (-16*total number of cells in the matrix) and

(16*total number of cells in the matrix), to compare scores from the matrices containing different

number of cells, the total project score can be normalized to a scale of 100 as follows:

Total project impact

Total project impact = -------------------------------------------- * 100

16 * Total number of cells in matrix

On the scale, the overall impact can be classified as follows:

Table 4-3Overall Impact Classification

Total project impact (Scale of 100) Magnitude

-100 to –75 Severely adverse

-75 to –50 Significantly adverse

-50 to -25 Appreciably adverse

-25 to -16 Minimally adverse

-15 to -6 Low Adverse Impact

-5 to 0 Extremely low adverse impact

0 to 25 Minimally beneficial

25 to 50 Appreciably beneficial

50to 75 Significantly beneficial

75 to 100 Highly beneficial

4.3.1.1 Alternative scenarios

Impact score for the project was calculated for three scenarios using the matrix method described

above. Matrices were prepared to represent each of these scenarios:



a) Scenario 1 - Project without EMP

There is minimally adverse impact on Air, water, soil & noise quality. However due to the

employment activities proposed by the proponent the cumulative impact for this scenario is found to



be -4.545, which is extremely low adverse effect to the Environment, The main objective of the

proposed project is to bring the economically viable production of Synthetic Acrylic Polymer

Emulsions , Industrial Synthetic Adhesives and Glues, Thermosetting Acrylic Resins, Ethylene vinyl

acetate Emulsions ,Polymer of Vinyl, Acetate , Vinyl Copolymers and Water proofing compounds

and Construction emulsions and use it beneficially.

Analysis of Alternatives


5 ANALYSIS OF ALTERNATIVES

5.1 INTRODUCTION

This chapter presents a comparative analysis of various alternatives considered to avoid or

minimize impacts that would be inevitable in technically advanced processes. Several alternatives

are analyzed for avoiding localized environmental impacts & arriving at the proposed processes.

Screening procedure for the alternatives considered are presented in the following sections. The

consideration of alternatives to a proposal is a requirement of the EIA report. Range of alternatives

selected for analysis includes - Site alternatives, Fuel alternatives, Water supply alternatives,

Technology alternatives. The relative impact of each alternative is compared against the baseline

environment to select a preferred alternative.

Finalization of various options such as fuel type and construction materials, keeping in view of the

obligatory points and environmental safety aspects etc. The Project alternatives without mitigation

measures and with mitigation measures are analyzed before choosing the proposed alternatives. The

objective of this chapter is to highlight some of the salient issues considered for exercising the

alternative options.

5.2 SITE SELECTION

The, Proposed site is located within SIPCOT Industrial Complex, situated at Thervoykandigai,

Thiruvallur district.

The criterion for site selection included the below mentioned points:

The proposed project site is suitable from operation point of view since it is situated in the

SIPCOT industrial park.

The project site shall not require displacement of habitation and away from the habitation area.

The plot allotted for the plant is flat and stable to increase its resistance against any natural

disturbances like earthquake.

The project site is above the flood level and thus will avoid any accident in case of flooding from

the nearby canal.

The project site is free from any environmental restrictions like natural parks, wild life

sanctuaries.

The project does not involve any displacement of local residents as it is located inside the

industrial park.

As the SIPCOT is also feasibility for transport the raw material and product we choose this site .

Analysis of Alternatives


5.3 PROJECT ALTERNATIVES

This project can lead to economical prosperity as there is good market for these product. Theporpoise of the plant is to meet the growing demand of the product in construction, Logistic,packing industries etc

5.3.1 Site alternatives

Since, the proposed project is located in SIPCOT industrial park it is well fitted to install the plantand operate. The site is not present near to any wild life sanctuary or national park .no alternativestudy was not conducted for this project.

5.3.2 Fuel alternatives

Jesons Industries Limited is using furnace oil for Thermopack heater and also have some fueldecide as alternative for furnace oil.Lite diesel oil, Liquid petroleum gas and natural gas are used as fuel alternativtly.

5.3.3 Water supply alternatives

As SIPCOT industrial park will provide the water about 100KLD for process and domesticpurpose, which has been supplying by SIPCOT industrial park from puzhal lake, it is sufficient toplant . hence no alternative of water for plant is conducted.

5.3.4 Alternative Technologies

There is alternative technology available for the process like using Gas and monomer to get thepolymer emulsions in pressurized reactors. But this proposed technology opted by Jesons IndustriesLimited is the low cost technology. Hence this technology is opted.

Environmental Monitoring Plan


6 ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM

6.1 INTRODUCTION

The Environmental Monitoring Program is laid out based on the following definition of

environmental monitoring:

“Environmental effects monitoring is the repetitive and systematic measurement of the

characteristics of environmental components to test specific hypotheses of the effects of human

activity on the environment. Environmental monitoring is undertaken primarily to determine the

environmental effects of human activities, and secondarily to increase understanding of cause-effect

relationships between human activity and environmental change.”

Environmental monitoring programs provide the necessary information to:

i. Verify the accuracy of EIA predictions;

ii. Determine the effectiveness of measures to mitigate adverse effects of projects on the

environment.

Feedback from environmental monitoring programs will be used to:

i. Determine whether more or less stringent mitigation measures are needed; and

ii. To improve the predictive capabilities of EIA’s.

Environmental monitoring program is a vital process of any management plan of the development

project. This helps in signalling the potential problems resulting from the proposed project and will

allow for prompt implementation of effective corrective measures. The environmental monitoring

will be required for the construction and operational phases.

The main objectives of environmental monitoring are:

To assess the changes in environmental conditions,

To monitor the effective implementation of mitigation measures,

Warn significant deteriorations in environmental quality for further prevention action,

In order to meet the above objectives the following parameters need to be monitored,

monitoring during the construction phase will be to implement systematic observations to

periodically measure the success of proposed mitigation measures and continue baseline data

collection. The majority of construction monitoring shall be done visually and verified by the

Construction Supervisor. An Independent Environmental Monitoring Consultant (IEMC) will

be responsible for carrying out environmental sampling and monitoring on all environmentally

related issues regarding the Construction Contractor’s activities. Specific aspects to be

addressed during construction include:

1. Air quality

2. Noise

3. Water quality and water resources

4. Solid waste

5. Land environment

6. Ecology

7. Socio Economic

7.5.1 Air Quality

Since Jesons Industries Limited is a new proposed manufacturing plant hence major

construction activity will be carried-out.. During construction activities, dust resuspension

and emissions from the movement of vehicles and construction activity is expected.

However, following measures will be taken to reduce / contain such emissions.



Water will be sprinkled on inner roads to prevent re-suspension of dust into ambient

air due to movement of heavy vehicles etc.

Roads shall be kept free from mud, debris and other obstacles.

Separate civil construction material storage yard will be created within the site and it

will be enclosed.

Cement bags will be separately stored under cover in bales. Sand will be stacked under

tarpaulin cover.

Transport vehicles and construction equipments / machineries will be properly

maintained to reduce air emissions.

Idle running of vehicles will be minimized during material loading / unloading

operations.

All construction workers will be provided appropriate PPEs like dust mask, ear plug,

helmet, safety belt etc. and it will be mandatory for them to wear while entering the

site itself.


Following measures are proposed during construction period to mitigate adverse impacts of

noise

Construction activities should be confined to daylight hours.

All machineries to be used for construction purpose will be of highest standard of

reputed make and compliance of noise pollution control norms by these equipments

will be emphasized by Jesons Industries Limited.

All construction workers working in high noise areas will be provided appropriate

PPEs like ear muffs and made to wear them during working hours.

7.5.3 Water Quality and Water Resources

Maximum water requirement for construction purpose including domestic water

requirement of construction workers is estimated to be approximately 3 KLD.

Since the construction workers are hired from nearby villages there will be no housing

facility at the site for construction workers and hence lesser water requirement

Proper and sufficient sanitary facility already exists at the site in the form of Toilets &

STP.



7.5.4 Solid Waste

Main solid waste generation during construction phase will be construction debris like

rubble, brick bats, debris, steel scrap, wooden scrap, sand, gravel etc. However, these

materials are inert in nature and will not result into leaching of any substance or its

constituent.

These materials will be carefully sorted and will be used within premises for filling of

low lying areas.

Wooden scrap, steel scrap will be given to authorized scrap dealers.

On completion of civil work, all debris etc. will be completely removed from site to

avoid any incompatibility with future use.

All the wastes will be stored at a designated site within the premises to prevent

scattered discharge on land.

7.5.5 Land Environment

Top soil layers shall be stored for reclamation and re-vegetation and reforestation at

approved locations.

Re-contour slopes

Ensure proper drainage is maintained

Re-vegetate, wherever feasible to contain runoff.

7.5.6 Ecology

Project site is an existing unit with a number of shrubs and trees. There is no cutting of trees

for the new manufacturing project and no major impact on ecology is anticipated.

7.5.7 Socio Economic

As the land is present in Tamilnadu State government SIPCOT industrial park there will be

no damage to local society. There will be no temporary housing colony for construction

workers, no socio economic impact due to the same is envisaged. Overall socioeconomic

effect of construction phase will be positive due to direct and indirect employment

opportunity for the local population.

7.6 ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR OPERATION PHASE

Monitoring during the operation phase shall reflect those environmental and socio-economic issues

that may persist upon completion of construction activities. Monitoring shall focus on evaluating

the effectiveness of project mitigation measures and continue baseline monitoring and sampling.



The mitigation measures to prevent adverse impact during the operation phase of the project shall

focus on the following:

Air pollution will be mitigated through pollution control device through wet srubber. The PP- FRP

scrubber is attached with process stack of vapour flow rate about 70M3 with flameproof motor of 7.5HP.

Figure 7-5 - Wet Scrubber attached with process stack


Following measures are proposed to mitigate negative impact of operation phase of the project on the

surrounding noise environment

All the noise generating equipments will be designed / operated to ensure that noise level does not

exceed 75 dB (A) during day and 70 dB (A) during night at plant boundary as per the requirement

of Central / State Pollution Control Board.

Noise generating sources will be maintained properly to minimize noise generated by them.

Wherever feasible, acoustic enclosures will be provided for compressors.

Walls and ceilings of buildings will be lined with sound absorbing materials, wherever required.



Compliance with noise control norms will be given due importance at the time of purchase of

various equipments and it will be mentioned while placing the purchase orders and guarantee for

noise standards will be sought from suppliers.

Moreover, all the personnel working in other high noise generating areas too will be provided

with sufficient ear protecting devices.

Green belt will act as a noise barrier.

Training will be imparted to personnel to generate awareness about effects of noise and

importance of using PPEs.

7.6.3 Water Quality and Water Resources


water quality and water resources.

Total water requirement for operation phase of the proposed project is estimated at 100KLD and is

proposed to be met through water supply SIPCOT industrial park which carried out from Puzhal lake.

The proposed project will generate 4.4KLD wastewater from domestic and 6KLD from industrial

process. There will be no additional water discharge in the proposed project and no change in pollution

load with respect to quantity and quality. The sewage arising from domestic purposes will be treated

separately and reused for irrigating greenbelt.

7.6.3.1 Domestic waste water

The Sewage Generated from Canteen, toilet & wash area are treated separately in STP. The treated water

from STP will be used for Green Belt maintenance. STP outlet will have the following requirements as

per TNPCB//CPCB - continuous monitoring for Flow pH, BOD, COD,TSS.

7.6.3.2 Rain water harvesting system

Rain water harvesting system is installed and all rain water will be collected, filtered and stored for reuse

within our plant process. This system is been implemented for conservation of water. The roof top water

is collected through pipe system which is treated and used.

The rainwater harvesting pits will be provided near major built up areas, so that the roof water can be

directly sent to nearest Rainwater harvesting pit. The excess water if any from the rainwater harvesting

pits is diverted to storm water drains.

7.6.3.3 Rain Water Harvesting Details and Calculations

1. The rain water harvesting is proposed to augment the ground water table and also to meet some of

the water requirement of the project during rainy season.



2. Rooftop water from the terrace is proposed to be collected in rain water harvesting sump which

will be used for domestic purposes after appropriate treatment.

3. Storm water run-off road / paved / landscaped areas will be directed to shallow recharge pits

constructed along storm water drains for recharging the ground water.

Rainwater Management Measures

Run-off from Terraces:

The run-off from the Terraces shall be separately piped to fire water tank, after duly filtering

the same. This water is proposed to be used for fire fighting.

Run-off from Roads, Paved area & Landscape areas:

The calculated run-off from roads/pavements, landscaped area and other building area are

1431.94 m³ /hr in total

This run-off is proposed to be channelized through storm drains to individual recharge pits

and the rain water will be re-charged into underground aquifers. Excess run off will be

discharged into to external storm water drain.

Total Run-off: Podium Area/Hardscape & Driveway & Landscape

Jesons Industries Limited has a membership of TSDF for handling Hazardous waste. The

membership copy is attached in Annexure- 10.

7.6.6 Land Environment


land environment.

As per ToR we got the membership with IWMA , with guidelines of IWMA we do the

disposal process.

Air emissions are effectively controlled by use of scrubbers and therefore deposition of air

pollutants in and around the premises and surrounding area is not envisaged.

Disposal of solid waste is carried out through authorized vendor.

Hazardous materials are prohibited to be drained or dumped in the premises. Accidental

spills shall be cleaned, reported and monitored.

Thus, no impact on land is envisaged due to discharge of gaseous emission, solid waste or

liquid effluent from the proposed manufacturing facilities.

The process waste are planned send to cement factory , which can use for fuel because of it

high calorific value.

7.6.7 Ecology

Since the proposed project is equipped with the treatment system, and the treated effluent will be

resuse. Solid wastes generated during the operation phase are disposed off through IWML, TNML and



TNPCB hence no impact is anticipated due to solid and hazardous waste in and around the site. The air

pollution control devices expected to be installed at the proposed facility will control release of air

pollutants to a greater extent, however a two tiered thick green belt consisting of shrubs and trees

around the periphery of the site has been planned to intercept and arrest air pollutants released at

various heights and to attenuate the increased quantity of air pollutants released into the environment.

It is expected that the ecology of the region is preserved by these mitigation measures.

7.6.8 Green Belt Development Plan

Jesons Industries Limited has already developed a greenbelt of 10911Sq.M (34.79 %) of the total plot

area in consultation with horticulture experts as per Ministry of Environment and Forests/Central

Pollution Control Board guidelines. Adequate numbers of saplings are planted all along the periphery

of the plant, roadways and available open spaces. The major aim of greenbelt development plan is to

attenuate air pollutants released into the environment but it can also help in overall improvement in the

environmental conditions of the project site. The plan will address the following issues such as

attenuation of air pollution, noise reduction, improving the biodiversity of the region, adding aesthetics

and combating soil erosion and prevention of land degradation.

A well designed green-belt helps in intercepting particulate matter and gaseous pollutants and helps in

purifying the air. Trees acts as effective barrier and absorber of noise. The green belt around an

industry acts as a buffer in the event of emission control equipment failure and acts as an indicator in

the event of toxic release by visible morphological changes in the leaves, stem etc. To accrue the

benefits of greenbelt and to maximize its potential in environmental management around an industry,

choice of the green belt tree and shrub species plays a vital role.

7.6.8.1 Selection of Trees

For development of greenbelt it is advisable to select tree species high are tolerant to air pollutants,

since certain species of trees has the ability to uptake large quantities of SO2 than other species and

grow at a faster rate by utilizing the available nutrients in the soil etc.

In general, following factors have to be considered for the selection of tree species.

Native tree species should be preferred over non native trees.

The trees must be tolerant to all the pollutants present in the area.

The trees which are evergreen and forms large round canopy with broad leaves.

The morphological feature of leaves like rough surfaced and large number of stomatal

aperture.

The trees should be able to grow faster and should help in stabilization of the soil.

The trees should maintain ecological, land and hydrological balance of the region.



7.6.9 Socio – Economic Environment

Jesons Industries Limited is new company entering first time in south India they are planned to do

some social development activities . The management has allotted 2.5 % of amount from net profit for

authorizations such that all process safety related matters receive proper review and approval prior to

initiating changes or modifications.

The Factories Act specifies the permissible exposure levels (PEL) and Threshold Limit Values

(TLV),which has to be strictly adhered for a better occupational health and safety in the site. Several

measures are taken by Jesons Industries Limited to keep the values below TLV.

7.6.11 Product Safety (Customer Safety)

Process safety is treated as a priority and Process safety reviews are conducted on a periodic basis and

findings addressed prior to the start-up of new or modified processes.

Process Hazard Analysis (PHA) necessitates the site for identifying, evaluating, controlling, and

documenting hazards at various times and stages in the life cycle of a processes and operations.

Our product customer have some expectations. While manufacturing product for our

customers, we agree to meet these expectations. Quality is explained as the meeting of the

agreed requirements.

While manufacturing the product, there is interaction with the surround. The surround of the

system can be environment and/or society. Industry is a part of society. Hence, it is social



responsibility of the manufacturer to serve the society. Which is known as Social

accountability or Corporate Social Responsibility.

Environment includes air, water, land, flora-fauna, living and non-living organism with whom

interaction takes place. Industrial waste may harm environment and which not desirable. So

we have to manufacture our product with due care of environment preservation.

The transforming input to output there are various industrial phases namely – receipt,

transport, security, hold, store, process, quality check, assurance, dispatch, feedback, after

sales service etc.

Following are the selection criterion for PPE.

PPE should …

… give adequate protection against the hazard

… be of minimum weight

… easy to wear and comfortable

… should not restrict the movement of the wearer

… durable and easily maintainable

… not cause hazard themselves

PPE Selection Considerations :

-Nature of hazard-Concentration of contaminant-Duration of use-Expected activity of wearer-Operating characteristics

Care of PPE :

-Why, where and how to use it-Ensuring effectiveness-Validity ( see expiry date)-Housekeeping : Clean & check before, during & after use-Proper maintenance & spares-Storage



Area Monitoring- sampling pumps or passive monitoring badges are placed at static/fixed locations

to collect airborne chemicals in the areas. Time weighted average (TWA) concentration of the

chemical present in the air was calculated.

Personnel Monitoring- This is a method using personal passive monitoring badges or sampling

pumps attached to the individuals, subject to chemical exposure. TWA then computed from the

analytical results and determined the exposure level to the individuals.
