5.2 POPULATION PROJECTION


phase.

5.3 LAND USE PLANNING

Land use pattern of the project area is not affected by the proposed project, as the proposed

project is the transportation of petroleum products through pipeline to Vadodara terminal

from Palanpur pumping station. The land acquired construction of pipeline; the crop

compensation will be given to farmer of respective land, after construction the land will be

utilized by farmer for agriculture purpose. There will be no adverse impact on land.

5.4 INFRASTRUCTURE DEMAND

5.4.1 Physical Demand

Land: The new 18” RoW will be utilized for the laying of pipeline. After laying the pipeline

the existing agricultural land will be send back to farmer for the agricultural purpose. .

Water: The Water will be required for the domestic purpose for workers during construction

phase only which will be met from the tanker supply, water will be required during

operational phase in terminal premises and no water requirement for pipeline during

operation phase.

Energy: 33 KV power supply met from State Electricity Board, when the grid power failure,

DG sets for pumping stations/terminal will be provided.

Construction Schedule: The proposed project scheme is expected to be completed in a

period of 24 months after getting statutory clearance.




5.5 AMENITIES/FACILITIES

The pumping station has mainline pumping units, Pump shed, Booster Shed, VFD (Variable

Frequency Drive), Control panels, MCC panels, HT/LT panels, batteries etc. other safety

facility of the safety factors like wind load, seismic load, soil bearing capacity etc have taken

into account while designing the civil structures. Clean drinking water, rest shelter etc will be

provided within the station premises.




6 PROPOSED INFRASTRUCTURE

6.1 INDUSTRIAL AREA

No industrial area exists in the proposed pipeline route.

6.2 Not Applicable RESIDENTIAL AREA

No residential area exists in the proposed pipeline route.

6.3 SOCIAL INFRASTRUCTURE

Social infrastructure details will be collected as per census of India.

6.4 DRINKING WATER MANAGEMENT

The water will be required for drinking and domestic purposes during construction phase of

pipeline which will be met from the tanker supply. Water will be required during operational

phase in terminal premises and no water requirement in pipeline operation.

6.5 SEWERAGE SYSTEM

During construction phase septic tanks would be provided for construction workers, the

domestic waste will be treated in septic tanks followed by soak pit.

At stations septic tanks are available; the domestic waste would be treated in the existing

septic tanks, followed by disposal in soak pits.

In the proposed Vadodara terminal, the septic tanks followed by soak pits will be provided.

6.6 INDUSTRIAL WASTE MANAGEMENT

The industrial waste management is as follows-

6.6.1 Solid Waste Management

No solid waste will generate. The project belongs to transportation of petroleum products

through pipeline.

During construction phase of terminal, generated solid waste will be utilized as and where

required.




6.6.2 Waste water Management

Waste water will generate during operation phase septic tank followed by soak pit will be

provided. The OWS/ETP will also be provided at the stations/terminal. Treated effluent will

be utilized for gardening purpose.

6.6.3 Hazardous waste Management

Generated hazardous waste will be sold to authorized CPCB vendor.

6.7 POWER REQUIREMENT & SUPPLY/SOURCE

The details of power supply is as follows-

• 33 KV grid power supply would be used. A separate 33/6.6 KV switchyard has been

envisaged for extending 6.6 KV power supply to Pumping Units. The power supply

will be met through State Electrical Board.

• DG set is also envisaged at stations/terminal for Pumping Unit.

• Automatic Power factor controller with requisite capacitor banks would be provided

for improving power factor in PMCC panel.

The electrical installation in the classified area will be in line with the classification for

hazardous environment.




7 REHABILITATION AND RESETTLEMENT PLAN

The proposed pipeline will be originated from Palanpur station of existing Mundra-Delhi

Pipeline (MDPL) to Vadodara terminal.

The proposed pipeline will be routed through 18m RoW of agricultural land, hence no R&R

envisaged.




8 PROJECT SCHEDULE AND COST ESTIMATE

8.1 PROJECT SCHEDULE

The proposed project scheme is expected to be completed in a period of 24 months after

receipt of statutory clearance.

8.1.1 Pre-Project Activity

Statutory clearance is the main pre-project activity.

8.1.2 Project Construction

During construction phase, construction facility will be taken for construction. Total duration

of the construction is envisaged as 24 Months and construction activity will start after getting

statutory approvals.

8.2 ESTIMATED PROJECTED COST

The total project cost will be around Rs. 1520 Cores. The breakup of project cost is given in

Table-4.

9 ANALYSIS OF PROPOSAL (FINAL RECOMMENDATION)

The proposed project will provide the petroleum products for Vadodara marketing terminal.

The petroleum products will be distributed from Vadodara terminal in western India. This

project involves fulfilling the demand of petroleum products in western India from Vadodara

terminal via originating point of the project Palanpur.

1. The project belongs to transportation of petroleum products through pipeline. The

transportation of petroleum products through pipeline is much efficient than road and

railway. The project will be eco friendly, energy efficient, less cost of transportation.

2. The socio economic scenario in the region will change with positive impact on the

regional socio economic pattern.

3. The projects will enhance the employment opportunity through construction for local

people during construction phase.

4. The compensation will be given to farmer for laying of pipeline through respective

agricultural field for short term. Overall the project will have positive impacts on

socio-economic environment.

5. No R&R involved in the proposed project.

6. One of the addition advantages of the pipeline transportation i.e. the scope of

economic offence like theft, pilferage and adulteration of petroleum products is

almost negligible and the consumer will get immense benefits and value for money.
