1.0 INTRODUCTION

Krishnashila Opencast Project is an existing operating mine in Singrauli Coalfields, NCL in an area of 851.78 Ha. The mine is in operation since 2007 and has produced 36.49 MT of coal and removed 117.23 Mm3 of OB till 01.04.2017.

1.2 Purpose of the report

This application has been made as per the MoEFCC OM No.J-11015/224/2015-IA.II dated 15.09.2017 for grant of prior Environmental Clearance (EC) for increased capacity of Krishnashila OCP to 7.00 MTPA considering the following points.

A In view of the proposed shifting of 33 m3/72mR Dragline from Krishnashila OCP to Khadia OCP and increased energy demand of coal in the country, it is imperative that production from Krishnashila OCP be further increased owing to its favorable geo-mining conditions.

B The total leasehold area as per earlier approved EMP is 851.78 Ha (extra land is not required and the forestry and other clearances have already been obtained).

C No change in technology is proposed.

D No change in backfilling & land reclamation plan will take place. Krishnashila OCP has got Environmental Clearance and the land reclamation plan has been approved by MoEFCC. There is no change in the land reclamation plan and the same shall continue after including the increased capacity of the mine to 7.0 MTPA also.

E The total approved manpower is 634 (3 shift working), no increase in which is proposed. The total existing manpower as on 01.11.2017 is 478.

F The grade of coal is grade G-8 and the linkage of coal is with M/s Hindalco Industries Ltd. as well as Basket Linkage.

G The mine-able coal reserves was estimated to be 99.12 MT and the average stripping ratio is 3.38 m3/T. Approximately 62.63 Mt of mineable coal reserve is left to be mined as on 01.04.2017.

H Due to the increasing demand of coal for the nation, it is requested to consider the proposal for grant of environmental clearance from MoEFCC for increased capacity of 7.00 MTPA (from 6.25 MTPA present capacity to increased capacity of 7.00 MTPA.).

Therefore this project qualifies for EC as per the MoEFCC OM No.J-11015/224/2015-IA.II dated 15.09.2017 for inclusion of increased production capacity from 6.25 MTPA to 7.00 MTPA. The filled up Form-I and this EIA of the Project are put up for due diligence of EAC for inclusion of 7.00 MTPA increase in capacity of existing and approved Krishnashila OCP.

1.7 Description of importance to the country and region

Northern Coalfields Limited is facing increasing demand of coal because of increased demand from industry and power sector. Continuing and augmentation of coal production from the mines of NCL will help to bridge the gap of demand and supply of coal in India. To meet the growing demand of coal, especially in power and steel sectors, the Ministry of Coal has given target to NCL for the year 2017-18 as 90.00 Mt which will increase to 110.00 Mt by the terminal year of XIIIth Plan ( 1.0 BT plan) period i.e. in year 2019-20.

Krishnashila Opencast Project will make available additional coal @ 0.75 MTPA apart from 6.25 MTPA that it is already producing, to meet the growing demand of non-coking coal.

2.0 PROJECT DESCRIPTION

2.1 Nature and size of the project Design, development and operation of Krishnashila OCP are done by Northern Coalfields Limited. This project originally had an operating capacity of 5.00 Mtpa ROM coal production. The project has already increase production capacity by 25% i.e., 6.25 Mtpa and again proposed to increase production capacity to 7.00 Mtpa. Refer Plate No-2 showing surface features in surface plan of Krishnashila Project.

Krishnashila is mined by opencast method. It is characterised by the presence of up to three seams with dip angles of 2°-3°.

4.0 DETAIL OF ANTICIPATED ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS & MITIGATION MEASURES

4.1 Air Pollution Control

Sources of air pollution



___________________________________________________________________

The main sources of air pollution are identified as-

1) Drilling & blasting in coal & OB benches.

2) Coal & OB transportation inside the mine.

3) Coal crushing & conveying from the mine.

4) Coal handling activities.

5) Coal conveying to Power plant through closed Tubular Conveyor and by Railway

siding & loading in wagons.

6) Wind erosion from coal stockyard& OB Dump.

Ambient Air Quality Control Measures

Air pollution control measures

Sufficient numbers of movable water sprinkling system has been provided to check fugitive emissions from various parts of mine.

(a) Departmental - 28 KL water tanker : 04 nos

(b) Contractual (BGR) - 12 KL water tanker : 04 nos

(c) Contractual (Monte Carlo) - 18 KL water tanker : 04 nos

(d) At all transfer points of conveyor system water sprinkling system are

available.

Vehicles are regularly being maintained to control the emissions. Coal transportation is being done in covered trucks. The haul road is being graded regularly in order to make it smooth. Coal before being loaded into tippers is watered properly to avoid generation of dust in course of transportation.

Presently, around 56% of Coal Off-take is being done by belt pipe conveyor and 37% by rail transport. As construction of CHP is about to complete, the coal transportation will be through conveyor system up to the silo and then loading to railway wagons.

Coal transportation is done by covered trucks to Railway Siding only. Regular water sprinkling on the transportation roads. The construction of high capacity silo loading system is in process. .

Dust extractors have been provided and made operative in drills. Arrangement of wet drilling has also been made at Project level.

Dust is controlled regularly by spraying water at Haul road, transfer point etc. In mine water sprinklers are used for controlling dust generation.

76.05 Ha of OB dump area has already been planted with 2, 59.500 plants. Species of plants are- Gulmohar, Karaanj, Mahua, Chilbil and bamboo.

Person working in industrial area have been provided with protective respiratory device. Regular training is being imparted to inculcate safety and health aspect. Each person working in or about the mine is being examined periodically by Doctor trained in occupational health services.

Coal transportation to M/s Hindalco Industries Pvt. Ltd./Thermal power plants is done by CHP and Rail. OB is backfilled inside the Quarry. So outside road transportation of coal and OB is reduced to bare minimum.

Outside mine lease area- 3.0 MTY of coal is proposed to be transported by pipe conveyor and the rest is by rail, thus having minimum impact on environment.



___________________________________________________________________

4.2 Water Pollution Control

Sources of water pollution Likely sources of water pollution from this project along with the type of pollutants are as

follows: Water Quality Management:

Likely sources of water pollution from this project along with the type of pollutants are as follows:

(i) Sanitary (domestic) waste water : Suspended solids and BOD.

(ii) Industrial wastewater from workshop

: Suspended solids, oil & grease;

(iii) Waste water from mine : Suspended solids of coal, clay and oil;

(iv) Surface run-off passing through coal stockpiles

: Suspended solids;

(v) Storm water from leasehold area and built-up area

: Suspended solids.

Water pollution control measures

Catch drains and siltation pond of sufficient size has been constructed to arrest the silt and sediment. The clean water so collected is being utilized for watering mine area, roads, green belt developments etc. The drains is being regularly de-silted and maintained properly. Sufficient sump capacity has been provided to have adequate retention period to allow proper settling of silt.

Sufficient check dam shall be maintained in the toe area of dump to arrest silting of sump.

At present there is no effluent going out of the mine premises. A Mini ETP is already working in the project, An integrated Effluent Treatment Plant (ETP) of 4.80 MLD capacity is under process of construction to deal with the effluent from workshop, CHP and mine discharge. There is provision of construction of 443 residential quarters in space available in Bina Township.

Rain Water Harvesting

In order to augment ground water resource, artificial ground water recharge measures have been taken. Further, numerous numbers of hand pumps , wells and ponds have been provided in nearby villages to meet the water requirements of villagers , animals and plants.

Additional Water requirement for the proposed increased Capacity of Krishnashila OCP: Requirement of Water (at 5.00 Mtpa stage) :

Domestic water : 757 m3/day Industrial water : 1312 m3/day



___________________________________________________________________

Total : 2069 m3/day

There is no increase in domestic water requirement as no increase in manpower as per mining plan. This will be met by integrated water supply scheme (IWSS) at Khadia. The average estimated mine water pumping from mine is 1640 m3/day at max. depth.

The industrial requirement of 1312 m3/day is met partially from Krishnashila mine water pumping and IWSS.

The additional industrial water requirement has been estimated about 198 m3/day from that at 5.0 Mt stage for haul road dust suppression and other dust suppression requirements. The mine water and treated ETP water will be Re-use to meet this additional requirements.

4.3 Noise Level Management:

The mining operation may cause noise nuisance if adequate precautions are not taken to keep the noise level within limits. An environment standard for coal mines stipulates that noise level in Industrial area shall not exceed 75 dB (A) Leq. The following measures therefore, have been envisaged to reduce the noise level to protect the workers from noise hazard and to adhere to the Environmental standards in respect of noise. - Use of equipment with arrangements for absorbing the operational noise. - Foundations of vibrating equipment to be designed with isolators to prevent Vibrations so that the noise level does not exceed 85 dB(A) Leq. - Controlled blasting is undertaken under supervision of the blasting officer. Proper blast

design is prepared to control ground vibration and to arrest fly rocks and boulders. Blasting is done with the use of soft tubes.

- Use of insulated cabins for operators - Use of rubber/ polymer liners in chutes and hoppers - Use of ear muffs by workers in the zone of high noise source (if any) - Plantation of trees around the plant area. - Routine maintenance of HEMM. - Regular maintenance with prompt replacement of worn-out parts.

4.4 Land Requirement & Management

The earlier approved Krishnashila OCP involved land requirement of 851.78 Ha, no increase in land requirement is proposed for increase in coal production. There will be no change in total OB quantity, dump area, final dump plan and dumping strategy due to increased peak production from 6.25 to 7.00 Mtpa. Modalities for technical and Biological reclamation will be remain same as mentioned in approved EMP (5.00 Mtpa) of Krishnashila OCP. A. Pre mining Land Use :

4.6 Socio-Economic Issues:

The proposed project Expansion will further give a boost to the economy of the area by providing primary and secondary employment to local people. The infra-structural facilities provided by the project are benefitting local villagers also. The mine closure activity is likely to significantly reduce the impact of industrial activity on the land apart from increasing the green cover and surface water availability. The standard of living of the local inhabitants has improved significantly due to indirect employment and service opportunities. Resettlement & Rehabilitation of PAPs

The project has already provided compensation and rehabilitation of affected families. There are a total 21 PAPs and all PAPs have already been rehabilitated. The rehabilitation site is Jawahar Nagar at a distance of 3km. All PAPs have already been rehabilitated.

Corporate Social Responsibility

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is taken up at Krishnashila Project level (Krishnashila OCP). Different villages falling in core zone and adjoining areas are benefited through CSR activities run at project level. The nature of benefits include maintenance of ponds and community buildings, well digging and renovation, road repair, renovation of schools and construction of boundary wall, medical camps, water supply, skill development for



___________________________________________________________________

employment generation etc. The expenditure on CSR activities in Krishnashila Area in last few years is given below:

Year 2014-15 2015-16 2016-17

Amount Spent (Rs. Lakh)

22.41 132.03 31.62

As per the CIL CSR policy of June-2014, the fund for the CSR should be allocated based on 2% of the average net profit of the company for the three immediate preceding financial years or Rs. 2/- per tonne of coal production of previous year whichever is higher. Out of above, 80% would be allocated for CSR activities to be carried out within the radius of 25 Km of the project site and the balance 20% would be allocated for carrying out CSR activities by company in the state to which it belongs.

4.7 Detail of Last Public Hearing The public hearing was conducted for 5.0 Mtpa production capacity on 6th October, 2012 at Workers Recreation Centre, Bina Project, and NCL. Detail of Public hearing along with ATR is given in Annexure No.-VI.

5.0 Analysis of Alternatives Not applicable, as this is an increase in production capacity to 7.00 Mtpa of existing opencast mine.

6.0 Environmental Monitoring Program

For effective implementation, a time bound action plan for environmental management including all aspects are being followed by the project. Samples for study of ambient air quality, water/Effluent quality, groundwater level and noise level are collected and tested quarterly at strategic places representing all the categories of location. Refer Plate No.2 and Plate No.4 for sampling point location details.

7.0 Project Benefits

Development of Krishnashila OCP has considerably improved the socio-economic status of the adjoining areas. This has resulted in following benefits:

Improvements in Physical Infrastructure

Improvements in Social Infrastructure

Increase in Employment Potential

Contribution to the Exchequer

Meet energy requirement

Post-mining Enhancement of Green Cover

8.0 Environmental Management Plan



___________________________________________________________________

Northern Coalfields Limited, the owner of this project has already set-up an Environmental Department headed by a General Manager at its HQs. The cell provides necessary support that is required for Environmental Management of various projects and mines under the jurisdiction of the company.

9.0 Mine Closure Planning:

Mine closure planning has to be carried out at the starting of the mine and needs periodic reviewing and revision during its life cycle to cope with the geo-technical constraints, safety and economic risks, social & environmental challenges. Various other objectives are as follows.

a) To allow a productive and sustainable after-use of the site this is acceptable to the mine owner and the regulatory authority.

b) To protect public health and safety.

c) To alleviate or eliminate environmental damage and thereby encourage environmental sustainability.

d) To minimize adverse socio-economic impacts.

As Per Mining plan (Nov., 2017) the Mine closure cost has been estimated as Rs. 9417.64 lakhs based on the guide lines provided by MOC. Final reclaimed dump plan and cross section are given in Plate-8, &9.

12.0 Justification for grant of Environmental Clearance

1. The project has already obtained Environmental Clearance for 6.25 Mtpa by EAC of MOEFCC vide letter No.J-11015/243/2011.IA.II (M) dated 13.02.2017. (Ref. Annexure. No-IV with accompanying Form-I). There is no change in mining lease area, mining technology, project economics, product mix and other project parameters.

2. The increase in production capacity is only 0.75 Mtpa which is well within the ceiling of 40% as specified in MOEFCC OM No.J-11015/224/2015-IA.II dated 15.09.2017.

3. A summarised EIA-EMP has been prepared on existing environmental scenario, impact assessment & control measures, disaster management due to increased production. By increasing the capacity of mine from 6.25 Mtpa to 7.00 Mtpa, there will be no increase in the pollution load except marginal increase of PM10 level which is also within the permissible limit.



___________________________________________________________________

The summarised Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is given in Annexure No.-I.

The Project authority is monitoring the Environmental Quality to determine the pollution level and ensuring that Ambient Air, Water & Noise quality is kept within permissible limit.

4. It is assessed that there will be no increase in the pollution load and the air quality level due to peak production will be within the prescribed limit. No additional land is required for the project. No additional Resettlement and Rehabilitation is required. The EC for 6.25 Mtpa production level already exists.

5. All the statutory environmental requirements are complied with, therefore, it is kindly

submitted that approval for environmental clearance as per the MOEFCC OM No.J-11015/224/2015-IA.II dated 15.09.2017 for 7.00 Mtpa (increase in capacity), in respect of Krishnashila OCP of NCL may please be granted.

WATER QUALITY MONITORING

Location of Sampling Stations and their rationale: (Refer Fig. No. - II) i) Mine Sump water (KSW3) The quality of the mine sump water needs to be monitored. Sampling site is selected to check the water quality of mine water after pumping.

ii) Tap water at Jr. Transit camp, Bina (KSW1) To assess the drinking water quality, a water sample from Transit hostel was taken. iii) Hand Pump at Kohroul Village (KSW2) To assess the ground water quality variation due to mining in rehabilitation complex, this site was selected.

Methodology of sampling and analysis

Water samples were collected as per standard practice. The effluent samples and drinking water samples were collected and analyzed for four/five parameters on fortnightly basis. The drinking water samples were collected and analysed for all parameters on quarterly basis. Parameters like pH, Temperature and Dissolved Oxygen were analyzed on-site while collecting the samples. Thereafter the samples were preserved and analyzed at the field laboratory located at RI-VI Office campus.

Results & Interpretations

The results are given in tabular form along with the applicable standards. Results are compared with as per MoEFCC Gazette Notification No. GSR 742(E) dt 25.09.2000 Std. for Coal mines (For 4/5 parameters of effluent and drinking water) & IS.10500/2012 (All parameters of Drinking water). Results show that most of the parameters are within the permissible limits.

NOISE LEVEL QUALITY MONITORING

Noise Level Sites and their rationale :( Refer Plate No. - 2) i) Site Office (KSN1) This area will represent the ambient noise level near the site office area, where the mining activities are in operation. ii) Jr.Transit camp, Bina (KSN2) This location is selected to assess the ambient noise quality in the residential area. iii) Kohroul Village (KSN3) This location is selected to assess the ambient noise quality in the residential area. iv) Jawahar Nagar (KSN4) This location is selected to assess the ambient noise quality in the residential area which is at the southernmost point of the colony and this point is in the predominant wind direction NW & SE and the mining area (core zone) is in the NW to the site. Methodology of sampling and analysis Noise level measurements in form of 'LEQ' were taken using Integrated Averaging Sound Level Meter (CR: 812C) during day and night time. Noise levels were measured for about one hour time in day and night time. Noise levels were measured in Decibels, 'A' weighted average, i.e. dB (A).

Results & Interpretations Ambient noise levels were recorded during day and night time and the observed values were compared with standards prescribed by MoEF&CC.

The results of Noise levels recorded during day and night time on fortnightly basis are presented in tabular form along with the applicable standard permissible limits. The observed values in terms of LEQ are presented.

The observed values at all the monitoring locations are found to be within permissible limits.
