1.6 IMPACTS AND ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN

This section will be to identify and assess potential impacts on various environmental components due to the proposed Project. The impacts will be identified and quantified for the intensity using modelling and/or matrix techniques meeting the requirement of EIA Notification. Based on baseline data collected for the study area, information on type and quantity of emission of pollutants and surveys of the study area, potential impacts will be identified and predicted due to the proposed Project on the surrounding environment during operation stage of the Project. The future impacts will be also identified for which suitable environmental mitigation measures may be planned and implemented. For the impacts where residual impacts would remain alternatives will be explored. The anticipated changes enhancing the baseline conditions, with respect to air, noise, water, ecology and land environments or potential deterioration of human health, ecology and cultural baseline conditions of the study area will be assessed and predicted using prediction tools as per the following description:

1.6.1 Air Environment

Environmental scenarios for point and fugitive emissions considering micro meteorological conditions and atmospheric variables will be used for predicting the Ground Level Concentration (GLC) in the temporal and spatial context, using multi-source and multi receptor models namely Industrial Source Complex - Short Term (ISC-ST-3) or AERMOD mathematical model to predict 24 hourly incremental GLC for the pollutants likely to be released from the proposed Project. Likely contours of incremental concentrations of various ambient air pollutants will be plotted on study area map to assess their spread. Baseline values will be added in the incremental values to get likely resultant concentrations of ambient air quality parameters. The resultant


17

concentrations will be compared with the prescribed ambient air quality standards for the specific pollutant assessed for the monitoring season. Details of stack emission and action plan for control of emissions to meet standards will be provided.

1.6.2 Land Environment

Assessment of impact on land environment including change of land use will be covered under the land environment. Impact assessment will also include potential changes in the drainage pattern and or flood situation due to setting up of the Project. Mitigation measures for storage of excavated soil and preventive measures for soil erosion will also be presented as part of the Impact Assessment on land environment. Potential contamination of land due to solid and hazardous wastes storages and spills will be assessed for operation phase of the Project. Suitable mitigation measures will be suggested to minimise adverse impacts on land environment. Details of hazardous waste generation and their storage, utilization and management will be included. EMP will also include the concept of waste-minimization, recycle/reuse/recover techniques, Energy conservation, and natural resource conservation.

1.6.3 Transport

Impact of the transport of the raw materials and end products on the surrounding environment shall be assessed and provided.

1.6.4 Water Environment

Impact of water requirement for the Project will be determined with reference to competing users as well as on any downstream water resources. Water requirement for the Project will be reviewed and options of reuse/recycling and rainwater harvesting will be evaluated to minimise adverse impacts on surface and groundwater resources. Discharges (quantity and characteristics) from the Project including sanitary wastewater and their onsite treatment and disposal options will become the basis for prediction of treated wastewater receiving environment. The discharge characteristics vis-à-vis treatment level and recycle and reuse options will be determined for impact prediction during operation phase of the Project. Details on rainwater harvesting plan at plant site will be provided to harvest rainwater from the roof tops and storm water drains to recharge the ground water .


18

1.6.5 Noise environment

From the Project noise sources, ambient noise levels will be predicted for the Project and surrounding area using noise propagation model for operation phase of the Project. Contours of incremental and resultant noise levels will be plotted to assess anticipated resultant ambient noise levels, which will be compared with the prescribed limits for suggesting mitigation measures, if required at the source.

1.6.6 Biological Environment

Impact prediction on ecology within the study area will be carried out by analysing likely changes in sensitive biological indicators for terrestrial and aquatic biological components separately. Impact on ecology will be assessed considering the fact of number of trees/vegetation to be retained/felled or cleared from the Project site and planned as part of landscape development of the Project site. Details of green belt development plan at site will be provided including details of species, width of plantation, planning schedule etc.

1.6.7 Socio-economics & Cultural Environment

Mitigation measures for adverse environmental impacts and associated hazards assessed as part of the identified impacts for operation phase of the Project. Measures would be detailed out for following parameters: • Land environment • Air Environment • Water Environment • Noise Environment • Biological Environment • Socio-economic Environment

1.6.9 Environmental Management Plan

Environmental Management Plan (EMP) is the key to ensure a safe and clean environment during operation phase. The desired results from the environmental mitigation measures proposed in the project may not be obtained without a management plan to assure its proper implementation and function. The EMP will envisage the plans for the proper implementation of mitigation measures to reduce the adverse environmental impacts arising out of the project activities during operation phase. The following issues will be addressed in the EMP:


19

• Preventive, mitigation, compensatory & enhancement measures for minimization & abatement of the undesirable impacts caused during the operation stage.

EMP will also include details on corporate Environment Policy, environmental management systems such as administrative framework, standard operating procedures for environmental compliance and system of reporting environmental non- compliance etc. Details on Enterprise Social Commitment will also be included.

1.7 ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PLAN

The monitoring programme will be required to ensure effectiveness of implementation of suggested mitigation measures. The environmental monitoring will help in assessing the changes in environmental conditions by monitoring the effective implementation of mitigation measures, and measuring deteriorations in environmental quality for further preventive actions. The broad objectives of the environmental monitoring programme are: • To evaluate the performance of mitigation measures proposed in the EMP; • To evaluate the adequacy of Environmental Assessment; • To suggest ongoing improvements in environmental management plan

based on the monitoring and to devise fresh monitoring on the basis of the improved EMP;

• To enhance environmental quality through proper implementation of suggested mitigation measures; and

• To meet the requirements of the existing environmental regulatory framework and community obligations.

Environmental monitoring plan for operation phases of the project road will be formulated to ensure effectiveness of implemented environmental


20

mitigation measures. Cost of Environmental Monitoring Plan for operation phase of the project will be worked out.

1.8 ADDITIONAL STUDIES

This section will cover the following components • Risk Assessment and disaster management plan; • Occupational Health; • Firefighting; and • Stakeholders consultation

1.8.1 Risk Assessment & Disaster Management Plan
