online proposal no. SIA/GJ/MIS/2521/2015.

Project status: New

Project / Activity Details:

M/s. Aaditi Enterprise has applied for dredging at Block: A2, near Pal village Taluka: Chorasi, District:

Surat, Gujarat to remove accumulated sediment on right bank of Tapi Estuary as a flood control

measure. This project has been conceptualized as the disaster management programme by Collector

office Surat. The objective of undertaking proposed dredging works within this particular reach of Tapti

river (Right bank) is for flood alleviation purposes by increasing the river channel capacity and its ability

to convey water. Widening and deepening of that portion of the river on the right bank will be carried out

to increase the carrying capacity of River Tapi. The work had been allocated to M/s Aaditi Enterprise to

remove the accumulated sediment an area of 8 hectors at A2 block ,along the right bank Tapti estuary

near Pal village in Chorasi Taluka. Anticipated sand reserve is 348000 MT and rate of removal of sand

is 30000 MT/Month. Dredging will be carried out by means of mechanical or hydraulic process. The

dredged material will be loaded out and beneficially deposited at other various sites based on the quality

of sediment. Sand, aggregates soil etc. Will be reused / recycle for various purpose. One DG set is

proposed. Requirement of fresh water is only for drinking purpose. No domestic activity will be carried

out near the project site. There will be no waste water and solid waste generation from the proposed

activity. The waste oil (100 lit./Month) is expected to be generated from the hydraulic dredger and other

machineries.

Observations & Discussions: During the meeting, Committee noted that the proposed proposal of dredging is to remove the

accumulated sediments to a depth of 3 meter. However, the proposed area is only a part of total

153.65.50 Ha area from Singanpore weir to Magdalla bridge of River Tapi, which falls under the CRZ

area. Project proponent informed that the flood in Tapti River has become recurring phenomena during

the monsoon period and In order to overcome this and to reduce the impact of flood, Collector office

Discussions/Observations:

Technical presentation made during the meeting by project proponent. During meeting, Committee

noted that there are discrepancies in data submitted in Form-1 & PFR and data presented during

meeting. It was observed that details presented regarding water consumption, waste water generation,

leachate generation etc. during meeting are not as per the online data submitted in Form-1 & PFR.

Further, Committee found that the data submitted in Form-1 & Pre feasibility report are unrealistic

(Water consumption – 176 KL/day, Waste water generation – 60.9 KL/day including leachate generation

– 40 KL/day etc.) PP submitted that alternative sites analysis was carried out for six sites and five sites

namely (i) at Lal Mandva, Kapadvanj, (ii) at Bayad, (iii) Vadasinor, (iv) Vadasinor,(v) Modasa were

rejected. However, the rejection of sites and site evaluation was not carried out as per the CPCB

guidelines i.e. parameters such as characteristics of land, geology, hydro-geology, ground water

conditions and ecological considerations etc. are not considered. Project proponent presented that the

aerial distance of nearest habitat is 2 km from the proposed site. However, it was observed from the

satellite image shown during presentation that there are habitats existing within 1 km area from the

proposed site. Committee also found that distance of Balasinor town and Sudarshan lake from the

proposed site is not correct. Upon asking about Fossil park, PP informed that the Fossil Park of

Page 29 of 40


Page 29 of 40

Balasinor is located at a distance 9 km from the proposed site. Considering the historical and

archaeological significance of the fossil park, Committee desired to know about the possible

environmental impacts of the proposed Common TSDF site on archaeological site of Balasinor. After

detailed deliberations, It was unanimously decided to reconsider the project for screening / scoping in

EC has been obtained the same vide dated 23rd August, 2012. During the construction phase fresh

water requirement 21.75 KL/day will be met through the tankers or underground water. During the

operation Phase, fresh water requirement for the textile park will be 315 KL/day which is proposed to be

sourced from Ground water. No pre-treatment will be given by the member units. The waste water

generated from member units will consist of oil and grease which shall be treated in proposed CETP.

The total effluent generated by the each member units of KITPPL is collected through underground

effluent conveying network and stored in the raw effluent collection sump. Total industrial effluent

generation will be 2715 KL/day (2625 KL from Water Jet units & 90 KL from Domestic activities). Total

industrial effluent (2500 KL/day) after humidification loss will be treated in proposed CETP. Treated

water (2480 KL/day) after handling/evaporation loss will be mixed with treated sewage (90 KL/day).

Total 2400 KL/day of treated waste water will be sent to member units for recycle and 80 KL/day of

treated waste water will be used for gardening/plantation within premises. Unit has proposed Common

Effluent Treatment Plant (CETP) and STP with capacity 2500 KL/day and 100 KL/day respectively.

CETP will consists of Primary, Secondary treatment incorporating MBBR technique & Tertiary treatment

units with sludge dewatering system. Unit has proposed to install closed and protected flow & pH meter

instruments at the inlet as well as outlet of each line terminating into the sump to provide real-time

measurement of flow and pH from each unit. Each pumping line from member industries will be fitted

with an automatic control valve. There will be installation of flow meter at the recycled network line.

Records will be maintained for utilization of treated effluent. Flow meter and pH meter will be installed on

outlet pipe from each member, and a PLC-SCADA based system will ensure that flow and pH from each

unit is within prescribed norms. An effluent quality-monitoring programme will be established by KITPPL,

which includes location of monitoring, frequency of monitoring, and specification of parameters to be

monitored in line with Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) guidelines.

members from GIDC Sachin & outside Sachin GIDC & received confirmation letters from them. Effluent

from individual industry will be collected by tankers, analyzed for salt content, acidity and solvents and

unloaded in collection tanks. Effluent will be neutralized in reactors with lime and gypsum will be filtered

off. The clarified liquid will be treated with caustic soda lye in a de-calcinator. The effluent containing

traces of solvent will be sent to solvent stripper for removal of low boilers. This neutral effluent will be

subjected to MEE followed by ATFD-(Agitated Thin Film Dryer). The plant will have three series of MEE

viz. (1) MEE for NaCL predominant stream (3 falling film calendria and 1 forced Circulation for capacity

200 KLPD), (2) MEE for Sodium Sulfate predominant stream (3 Forced Circulation calendria with

capacity of 100 KLPD) & (3) MEE for mixed salts stream (3 Falling Film calendria with capacity of 250

KLPD). The condensed water will be purified using chemical and electrical oxidation process and will be

recycled as process water to the industry. The gypsum will be sold to cement industry. The unusable

mixed salt will be disposed in TSDF sites and concentrated low boiler stream from stripper will be

disposed at common incineration facility (CHWIF). Fresh water consumption will be 408 KL/day which

will be sourced from Sachin Infra Management Ltd. Industrial Waste water generation (399.75 KL/day)

will be reused. Domestic waste water (15 KL/day) will be disposed off into soak pit via septic tank. Multi

Technical presentation made during the meeting by project proponent. The study period considered for

EIA study was March 2014 to May-2014. The baseline environmental conditions within the study area of

5 km have been determined. Ambient air quality monitoring was carried out at 8 locations including

project site. The maximum concentration of PM10 (86.71 μg/m3) and PM2.5 (51.89 μg/m3) was recorded at the Project Site – Unit 2. The maximum concentration of SO2 (19.4 μg/m3) was at Village:

Page 36 of 40


Page 36 of 40

Kharwas and maximum concentration of NOx (21.6 μg/m3) was at Village: Kharwas respectively. The

PM10 and PM2.5concentrations at all the AAQM locations were primarily caused by local phenomena

including industrial & vehicular activities and natural dust getting air borne due to manmade activities

and blowing wind. PM10 and PM2.5 concentrations were observed below stipulated standards of CPCB

for Industrial, Residential, Rural and Other Area at all air quality monitoring locations during the

monitoring period. Eight nos. of ground water and two nos. of surface water samples were collected

from the study area. The Industrial Source Complex – Short Term Version 3 (ISCST) AERMOD model

has been developed to simulate the effect of emissions from point sources on air quality. Incremental

concentration due to proposed project is found within permissible National Ambient Air Quality

Standards.

During the meeting, the committee noted that the waste water from the entire system to be reused will

be in the industries located outside instead of using it within premises. Committee was of the view that

unit shall fulfill their fresh water requirement from generated RO permeate stream only and no fresh

water shall be procured from outside. While reviewing the EIA report, Committee observed that the ToR

related to details of effluent streams from member units, segregation of streams and transportation

system, Monitoring plan, emission details, green belt development etc. were not addressed properly.

After deliberation, It was unanimously decided to consider the project for further consideration only after

submission of the following:

1. Revised water balance diagram including complete reuse of waste water within premises.

2. Complete and specific details of TOR no. 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 28, 48.

M/s: Sachin Udyognagar Sahakari Mandli Limited has proposed to establish Common Effluent

Treatment Plant (CETP) with 20 MLD capacity with recycling facility along with effluent collection system

Page 37 of 40


Page 37 of 40

and treated waste water distribution system for water jet looms industry situated at Hojiwala Industrial

estate. The proposed CETP will be situated at block no. C-11, C-13, C-15, C-24 (Subpart 28 to 35),

Hojiwala Industrial Estate, Sachin, Dist- Surat, Gujarat. Total land acquired for the proposed CETP with

recycling plant will be 25230 sq. mtr. Unit has proposed total 7570 sq. m area for green belt area,/Tree

Plantation area . Total project cost will be Rs 50 Crores. Proposed project is exclusively for conveyance,

common effluent treatment and recycling of industrial effluent being generated exclusively from the

Water Jet Looms from the Hojiwala Industrial Estate; both existing looms and upcoming looms will be

utilizing the CETP for their effluents and under no circumstances any dying and printing, textile process

house and chemical manufacturing unit will be allowed to be the member of the CETP. There will be 18

member units with @ 1069 water jet machines at the initial stage. However, looking to the future

potential in textile industries, the number of water jet looms bearing industries is going to increase

rapidly within the Hojiwala Estate, either by way of expansion of the existing units or by setting up of

new units. About 6000-7000 water jet looms are envisaged to be ultimately operational in the Hojiwala

Industrial Estate; considering the wastewater generation quantity from each loom to be around 2.8 to 3

KLD , the CETP has been designed for 20 MLD capacity. The conveyance system for effluent and

distribution network for re-cycled water including its various components has been designed for 20 MLD

capacity. Total water consumption at CETP will be 50 KL/day which includes 10 KL/day of fresh water

for Domestic use & 40 KL/day of recycled treated water for solution preparation of treatment chemicals.

There will be a requirement of make-up fresh water of 5 MLD (max.), (including 10 KLPD of domestic

requirement at CETP) to compensate for the evaporation losses at each individual member unit. Canal

water will be used as make up water and a water Treatment Plant for 5 MLD is proposed along with the

CETP for canal water treatment. The wastewater quantity being received through member units and the

recycled water quantity to be distributed to member units will be monitored through SCADA based

system. Effluent conveyance system will be based upon gravity flow. The effluent received at inlet

chamber of CETP will be subjected to treatment so as to meet with norms prescribed and will be put

back in to dedicated piped distribution network for reuse. The member units will have preliminary

treatment consisting of screen chamber, oil & grease trap and collection sump so as to meet the quality

of effluent with CETP inlet norms prior to discharge into the conveyance system. These facilities shall be

within the premises of the member industry. The screen and oil & grease trap of suitable capacity will

prevent choking of drainage line and will ensure continuous flow at all stages. For the individual

member units, it will be mandatory to provide continuous online monitoring system for estimation of flow,

TDS & pH to prevent any illegal disposal of effluent from industries other than member units. Common

Effluent Treatment and Recycling Plant will consist of Equalization, Primary Treatment, Biological

Treatment (based on SBR process) and Tertiary Treatment Facility. 20 MLD of treated effluent will be

collected in water reservoir and recycled to member units for reuse. Alum, Poly Electrolyte (PE), Urea

and Activated carbon will be used at the CETP as treatment chemicals. The entire treated effluent from

CETP of SUSML will be sent back to member units for reuse through distribution network of rising

mains. Treated effluent generated will be collected in water storage tank and recycled to member units

for reuse after addition of fresh water as make-up. It will be mandatory for member units to provide

continuous online monitoring system for estimation of flow, TDS & pH to prevent any illegal disposal of

effluent from industries other than member units. Provisions of state of art centralized PLC/SCADA

system will be provided for plant operation, control, monitoring, and data recording. The data of pH

meter, flow meter, TDS and TOC analyzer will be made available to GPCB in real-time basis. The CETP

management manual for proposed CETP will be prepared for better performance of the CETP. The full

fledged laboratory facility will be provided. CETP inlet norms and anticipated quality of treated effluent

will be as under:

during public hearing. The baseline environmental quality has been assessed for a period from 5th Jan

2015 to 28th March 2015 in a study area of 5 km radial distance from the project site. Ambient Air

Quality Monitoring (AAQM) was carried out at 6 locations during the study period for PM10, PM2.5,

Sulphur Dioxide, and Oxides of Nitrogen. Results show that the PM10 concentration ranges between

56.2 - 165.6 μg/m3 within the study area during the period of sampling. The average PM10 concentration

remains well below the stipulated standards of NAAQS [24 hr.] at waktana and kansad villages,

however, at other locations the average concentrations are high due to the industrial activities. The

PM2.5 concentration ranges between 35.8 - 89.2 μg/m3 within the study area during the period of

sampling. The highest concentration among the monitored locations has been found at Sachin and the

lowest at Waktana. The average PM2.5 concentration remain below the stipulated standards of NAAQS

[24 hr.] at three locations except at Site, Sachin and Lajpor locations due to the industrial activities. The

average values of Sulphur Dioxide and Oxides of Nitrogen remains well within the stipulated value of 80

μg/m3 at all the monitoring locations. Gaseous pollutants and Particulate matter remain well within the

prescribed norms. The surface water samples and ground water samples have been collected from

Ponds, Rivers and different bore wells of various Gram Panchayats within the study area. Result shows

that majority of the physico-chemical parameters and heavy metals from surface and ground water

samples are below stipulated drinking water standards. All the ground water samples analyzed, except

village kansad hand pump sample can be considered fit for drinking purpose after resorting to suitable

treatment of disinfection. Committee noted that the treated waste water will be completely recycled and

there will be no discharge of waste water.

During the meeting, Committee emphasized on the conveyance system of the raw effluent and treated

effluent and CETP performance. Project proponent assured that the wastewater quantity being received

through member unit and the recycled water quantity to be distributed to member units needs to be

monitored through SCADA based system. Committee asked to submit an action plan in case of

Breakage in conveyance system considering worst case scenario. After detailed deliberations the

Committee sought following additional information for further consideration of the proposal:

1. Status of permission from Irrigation department about withdrawal of 5 MLD canal water.

2. How will you ensure that all the member units will use recycled treated water and will not use

ground water from their own premises.

3. Site plan and Layout plan showing nearby Nallah and surrounding areas. How will you ensure that

there will not be any waste water discharge from the proposed project.

4. The CETP management manual for proposed CETP.

5. Action plan in case of Breakage in effluent conveyance system (Worst case scenario) including

response time, impact on soil and surrounding environment & mitigation measures.

Following projects were also considered and discussed during meeting.

1. Bhadbhut Barrage Project (Proposed by Kalpasar Department of Government of Gujarat), Near Bhadbhut Village , Tal. Vagra, Dist. Bharuch.

The Narmada, Water Resources, Water Supply & Kalpsar Department (NWR&WS&KD), Government of

Gujarat has proposed to construct a barrage across Narmada River near Bhadbhut village, Dist:

Bharuch.

This office received an application for Environmental Clearance for the proposed Barrage project on

15/11/2011. Referring to the EIA Notification 2006, Barrage Project has not been included in the

project specific list however, the proposed Barrage will provide irrigation to 1136 hectare of land.

Accordingly, the project falls under category B of the project / activity no. 1(c) [i.e. the project having

irrigation command area less than 10,000 ha] in the schedule of the EIA Notification, 2006.

Further the project was considered for screening /scoping in the meeting of the SEAC held on

05/01/2012 and additional TORs were prescribed for the EIA study.

Public hearing for the project was conducted by the GPCB on 19/07/2013 at Bhadbhut village, Dist:

Bharuch.

Final EIA and Risk Assessment report of the project prepared by CSIR-NEERI, Nagpur was

submitted by PP during February, 2014. The project proponent was called for appraisal in the SEAC

meeting held on 31/07/2014.

During the SEAC meeting on 31/07/2014 & 10/03/2015, the project was appraised based on the

information furnished in the EIA Report.

Consequently, the project proponent submitted the details/information sought during the SEAC

meetings dated 31/07/2014 & 10/03/2015 vide their letters dated 29/01/2015 & 04/09/2015

respectively.


During meeting, Committee took notice of MoEF&CC Notification vide S.O. 1599 (E) dated 25.06.2014

regarding amendment to EIA Notification 2006, which states about amendment in the applicability of

Irrigation Projects for culturable command area i.e. “<10000 ha, >2000 ha of Culturable Command

area” falls under category B of the project / activity no. 1(c) (ii) of the EIA Notification 2006. Further,

applicability of the said amendment was deliberated in detail. As the proposed Barrage project will

provide irrigation to about 1136 ha of land which is less than 2000 Ha, Committee was of the view that

proposed project does not fall under the ambit of EIA Notification 2006 as culturable command area

does not qualify under the amended EIA Notification 2006 dated 25/06/2014. In view of this, project

proponent informed that their proposal does not fall under the purview of EIA Notification 2006 and does

not require to obtain Environmental Clearance. Considering an amendment of EIA Notification 2006

dated 25/06/2014 and the fact that culturable command area of the proposed project is less than 2000

Ha, Committee unanimously decided to return an application for obtaining Environmental Clearance for

proposed Barrage project since it does not require environmental clearance anymore.

In view of the above, it was decided to delist the proposal from the list of the applications for getting
