ENVIRONMENT

1 Old Green Belt Development In line with EC requirement a nearly 230 ha of

project area (coal stockpile, coal conveyor, ash

pond etc.) has been covered under green belt

development till March 2014 through plantation of

515,876 saplings with a survival rate of 95%. Of

33% of the total project area (1242 ha) to be

covered under green belt, the current progress is

about 18.5%. The details of the green belt

development undertaken for the period Jan-Mar

2014 is presented in Annexure 2.

In some areas the green belt is lacking

heterogeneity and usage of plant species tolerant

particularly to fly ash and sulphur dioxide

Continue with the green belt development

efforts to fulfill EC requirement of

covering 1/3rd of project area under green

belt.

Heterogeneity of green belt to be

maintained throughout the project area.

Further efforts to be made to maximize the

plantation of plant species tolerant to fly

ash and sulphur dioxide in consistent with

the CPCB Guidelines for Developing

Green Belts.

4 Old Blended Coal Use

Implications

CGPL has undertaken a study during Feb-13

through M/s Vishuddh Envirotech to assess the

potential environmental and social implication of

blended coal use (70% Ecocoal and 30% Melawan

coal). The study has not revealed any potential

environmental risks in terms of increased coal

consumption, augmentation of coal handling &

transport system and existing pollution control

equipment etc. The study assesses the need of

increase in operational time of Internal Coal

Handling System (ICHS) and increase in handling

of coal quantities at the West Port resulting from

blended coal use. The assessment also recognizes

adequate storage and fugitive emission control

facilities at the West Port to cater to the additional

coal load and this will be further supplemented by

the existing Port Service Agreement with M/s

Adani Port.

However incorporation of the above study

recommendations in the project EMP by

December 2013 is still pending.

Update the project EMP through

incorporation of the recommendations

made with respect to the ―Study on the

Assessment of Low Calorific Blended

Coal‖ by M/s Vishuddh Envirotech.

3.89-6.35% and 0.21-0.41% respectively. This is

found to be in compliance with the EC condition

which require ash and sulfur content in coal to be

≤10% and ≤1% respectively. Unit wise details of

the quality of blended coal used have been

presented in Annexure 3.

6 Old Blended coal consumption With all 5 units in operation the coal utilization

records for the period Apr‘13 to Mar‘14 reveals

consumption of 11.50 million tonnes of coal for

the quarter which is in compliance to the annual

consumption limit (12 million tonnes) specified in

the project EC.

CGPL to periodically monitor the

consumption of coal to ensure that the

threshold consumption limit is maintained.

Project EC to be amended if consumption

in excess to the threshold limit is

anticipated.

7 Old Fly Ash Utilization Review of ash utilization records for the period

Jan-Mar‘14 and Apr‘13- Jan‘14 reveals ash usage

of ~20% and ~32% respectively primarily through

sale to Sanghi and Binani cement. However this is

found to be below the 50% threshold to be

achieved for 1st year of project operation as per

legal requirement.

Presently utilization of fly ash through the

aforesaid industries is still being continued along

with the following options being explored and/or

implemented to maximize fly ash utilization in

order to meet legal norms for the 2nd year wherein

75% of utilization is required to be achieved:

Put on fast track the implementation of fly

ash utilization options already approved by

the CGPL management in order to achieve

75% utilization from 2nd year onwards.

Periodically update the lenders and related

stakeholders on the status of the

implementation of the options/proposals.

Use in Ready Mix Concrete: Considering the

market of fly ash in Mumbai for use in Ready

Mix Concrete (RMC) CGPL is currently

planning to send a trial shipment of 1500 MT

to Mumbai to explore the feasibility of this

option.

Fly Ash Export: A three year contract signed

with M/s Dr. Hemant Nadkarni & Associates

for export of fly ash. Trial shipment already

sent with a quantity of 250000MT/annum

expected to be exported till 2017.

Use in Value Added Products: Use of fly ash in

the preparation of PozzoSlag and Sand

Aggregate is being evaluated in coordination

with M/s VHSC and M/s Zaaksand, Germany

respectively.

Use in Cement Manufacturing: In addition to

Binani and Sanghi Cement, CGPL has plans to

sell fly ash to Ambuja Cement for their

Kodinar Plant for which a 10 year contract is at

an advance stage of negotiation. Given daily

sale of 750 TPD of fly ash to Ambuja the

option is likely to prove sustainable if

implemented.

Further to the above discussion are in progress

with M/s ABG Cements and M/s Sanghi Cements

8 Old Hazardous Waste

Management (Permit

Requirements)

Chemical sludge generated from ETP is by default

considered as a hazardous waste and therefore

authorization for the generation, storage and

treatment/disposal (through authorized vendors)

for the same has been obtained from GPCB during

April 2013. Although it is required that the sludge

is disposed through GPCB authorized TSDF of

M/s SEPPL presently it is being disposed in the

ash pond. In this regard it has earlier been

recommended that CGPL undertake analysis of

the sludge for the presence of hazardous

components, if any and seek necessary

amendment to the CTO condition as found to be

necessary.

In view of the above CGPL has got the ETP

sludge analyzed for hazardous characteristics (if

any) through M/s Kadam Environmental

Consultants during Mar-13. Review of the report

indicates that the sludge is of non-hazardous

nature and the same has been communicated to

GPCB vide letter dated 4th June 2013 for

necessary response and action.

Amendment to the ―Consolidated Consent

& Authorization‖ with respect to ETP

sludge disposal need to be sought on a fast

track basis through intervention and

support from CGPL site management.

9 New Hazardous Waste

Management (Storage)

Hazardous waste primarily waste oil was observed

to be stored in a designated and paved area within

the site near the CGPL administrative building.

The following observation were made with respect

to the storage area:

Display of ―Danger‖ signages and online

display of hazardous waste related information

were found to be absent as specified in the

Consolidate Consent & Authorization (CC&A)

issued. However manual display of hazardous

waste related information was observed near

the main gate. Further the hazardous waste

storage containers lacked proper labeling and

inventory as required under the provision of

Hazardous Waste (Management, Handling &

Transboundary Movement) Rules, 2009.

No fire extinguishers and spill kits were

available at the waste storage area to promptly

respond to any emergencies related to the

storage and handling of such hazardous waste.

Waste manifests are being maintained in Form 13

review of which indicates that ~1 MT of waste oil

has been sent to authorized hazardous waste

recyclers (M/s N K Lubricants) for the quarter.

Refer Annexure 4.

Records of hazardous waste to be

maintained in Form 3 and containers to be

marked as per Form 12 specified under the

HWMH Rules.

CGPL is required to display relevant

information with respect to the hazardous

waste as indicated in the Honorable

Supreme Court‘s Order in W.P.No.657 of

1995 dated 14th October 2003. Online

display of type and quantity of hazardous

waste being stored need to be ensured or

modification in consent condition need to

be sought.

Provision of fire extinguishers and spill

kits need to be ensured at the hazardous

waste storage to control any potential

emergency situation.

11 New Model Conformity Study Monitoring and model conformity studies of the

condenser cooling water discharge system have

been initiated by CGPL through NIO with field

study completed in Dec‘13. Review of the scope

of work reveals that the primary objective of the

study was

To study and confirm the efficiency of the

condenser cooling water discharge system at

Mundra using appropriate methods like

physical measurement of temperature and

salinity at a series of points along the discharge

channel during both ebb and flood phases of

the tides.

To monitor the current status of prevailing

Peak fishing season data to be gathered to

assess and evaluate any possible impacts

of marine outfall on potential fishing

zones.

baseline of December 2008 and to suggest

mitigation measures for adverse impacts

identified if any

Presently the study has been limited to one season

data to ensure comparison to the period during

which the earlier study has been carried out.

However considering the complaints raised by

Tragadi bunder fishermen regarding the potential

impact of cooling water outfall on fish catch in the

area it is important as part of this study to assess

and evaluate the impacts during the peak fishing

season as well.

12 Old Flue gas emission Statistical interpretation of flue gas emission

records (for criteria pollutants viz. PM, SO2 and

NOx) available from Continuous Emission

Monitoring System (CEMS) for the period Jan-

Mar‘14 for all 5 units reveals the following

being monitored online for all 5 units.

The NOx and SO2 concentration monitored

online in flue gas were found to exceed the

GPCB standard specified for these pollutants in

all the cases.

With the project planning to obtain IMS

certification there exists no action plan/procedure

to assess and evaluate the potential reasons for

such deviations from specified standards and

formulate necessary corrective action, if required

to address such deviations.

Manual monitoring of flue gas for the period Jan-

Mar‘14 was found meet the World Bank standards

for the following pollutants: PM (24.2-33.7

mg/Nm3), NOx (440.7-517.2 mg/Nm3) and SO2

(756.2-858.8 mg/Nm3). However the NOx (215.0-

exceeded the permissible limit specified for these

pollutants i.e. 50ppm for NOx and 100ppm for

SO2 in the CC&A issued by GPCB. Given that the

project has been designed and is being operated

for low sulfur content coal (<1%) and low NOx

burner rated at 385ppm CGPL considers it

challenging to meet this stringent standards

specified for both NOx and SO2. Although CGPL

by its application dated 11th Jan 2012 has

requested for amendment of certain specific

CC&A conditions by GPCB including flue gas

emission norms, no response to this regard has

been received till date.

13 New Ash Pond – Structural

Integrity and Leachate

Collection

The following observations were made during the

visit to the ash pond area:

Seepage observed from the earthen bund of the

ash pond possibly from breach/damage of the

concrete tiles and HDPE liner leading to the

overflow and clogging of the toe drains.

Potential stress on the dyke bunds and walls

resulting from movement of heavy vehicles

and indiscriminate disposal of large volumes of

bottom ash along the ash pond slope.

The following mitigation measures need to

be implemented based on the observations

made during the quarterly compliance

audit and CGPL internal audits:

Refurbish downstream slope of the

bund by earth filling.

Provision of vertical drain at every 30

m on downstream slope of bund.

Perform cleaning and repairing of toe

Of the various CSR programmes undertaken which were initiated in compliance to commitments given to the people during commencement of

the project. While a few of these activities such as those related to fodder distribution were considered for long term intervention as a mitigation

measure for livelihood restoration for animal rearers in lieu of acquisition of grazing land (as notified by Government). For other government

land acquisition social infrastructure programmes for restoration of access roads, enclosure of common or social/cultural infrastructure, NRM

activities, education and health (including preventive) were undertaken under CSR. The original CSR activities undertaken in compliance to

commitments made have also undergone some changes from the original planned intervention.

C.3 No Objection Certificate from the Gujarat

State Pollution Control Board should be

obtained before starting the project

Consent to Establish (NOC) obtained by

CGPL on 17th

July, 2007.

C.4 It shall be ensured that the cooling water

before discharge shall confirm to the

standards laid down by Gujarat State

Pollution Control Board and Central

Pollution Control Board.

Refer section A.10.

C.5 Continuous monitoring of the temperature

at the discharge point should be provided.

Regular online monitoring of cooling

water temperature is being carried out at

the bridge constructed over the outfall

channel near the ash pond area. In this

regard CGPL has also engaged a

monitoring agency to undertake regular

monitoring of cooling water discharge

parameters near outfall point from Apr‘12

onwards. For further details please refer

to Annexure 5 & 6.

C.6 The canal should be constructed in such a

manner that no percolation takes place to

the ground water.

The outfall channel of total length 7.3 Km

is lined with impervious material to

prevent any cooling water percolating to

ground water aquifers.

C.7 The end of discharge weir shall be

designed to ensure that the tidal water

does not find its way into the pre-cooling

channel. Further, it shall be ensured that

the hot water discharge is uniformly

spread over the radial region in front and

mixing of warm water with the ambient

receiving water is maximum.

Specification in the procurement order

was verified to be in compliance with

these requirements and meet the required

standards. This is further substantiated by

the cooling water temperature recorded

for the period Jan-Mar‘14
