GMB along with GIDC has plans to develop riverside into port based activities

A Ro-Ro ferry service connecting Dahej and Gogha (Saurashtra) is being planned from the

GMB area near Jageshwar by the Gujarat Government at a cost of Rs 650 million

GMB has, in principle, accepted the proposal of M/s ABG Shipyard Limited to set up a

modern ship building/repair yard for big size vessels on upstream of IPCL Jetty near

Jageshwar

At Hazira, Shell Group has signed MoU with Singapore Port Authority for the container

Terminal at Hazira which is at a distance of 60 nautical miles from Dahej.

GMB and GIDC have plans to develop a feeder container terminal at Dahej, if a Container

Port is not found feasible.



Gas Grid connectivity

Gujarat Gas Grid handles more than 13 MMSCMD of gas and its current network

passes through PCPIR – near Ankleshwar. Gujarat Gas proposes to extend its network

till Vilayat as and when industries start coming in.

Grid imports 18 MMSCMD of gas from Petronet LNG as part of GAIL National Gas Grid

Project.

Water availability

The existing water reservoirs and OHTs fall within the existing industrial estates and the

water pipelines run along the connecting roads from Vilayat to Dahej.

The site currently has a single source of water i.e. Narmada River through which

various agencies supply water for various purposes.

GIDC has provided 8 MGD water pipeline for supplying raw water to industries which is

currently being augmented by another 25 MGD pipeline (presently under construction).

A new water project of capacity 35 MGD at a cost of Rs 245 crore has recently been

sanctioned.

Through the Narmada Canal Network, the site receives raw water for irrigation. The

Central Bada Scheme of GWSSB provides drinking water to rural habitations.



Effluent/ Solid waste treatment

GIDC has provided a 55 km effluent conveyance pipeline of 90 MLD capacity from

Vilayat to the mid-sea at Gulf of Khambat - Vilayat Industrial Estate has a pumping

station within its boundary.

For solid waste management, a scientific landfill site including incineration facility for the

disposal of hazardous as well as non–hazardous waste would be developed in the

proposed utility zone.

Common Effluent Treatment Plant and sewerage treatment plant would be developed

along the effluent conveyance pipeline within the utility zone.



Power availability

Currently power is available from Gujarat Electric Board (GEB) mainly from 220 KV

Haldwara Substation (linked with the grid of the state utility GETCO) by 220 KV Dahej

Haldarva circuit line.

There is a 220 KV substation situated in the centre of Dahej GIDC (which is connected

to the Haldarva substation at a distance of 60 km) from which GACL, Indo Gulf and

LNG Petronet are linked. This substation receives 30 MW constant power from GACL

Dahej generating station.

A 66 KV sub station at Dahej supplies power to the units of GCPTCL and BASF but it

receives power from 66 KV Vagra sub-station. IPCL draws power directly from Haldarwa

.At Vilayat Industrial Estate, a 66 KV sub station has been set-up

It is proposed that captive power plants, additional substations required for the power

distribution to the PCPIR be located within the utility zone. Already an MoU has been

signed for 2000 MW of power generation by co-developer of Dahej SEZ Ltd.



Telecommunications

Telecommunication network is available from BSNL mainly and also from private

distributors like Airtel, Hutch and Idea.

BSNL has OFC network with ring connectivity. Within the PCPIR, BSNL has exchanges

at Dahej (1500 lines), Vagra (1088 lines), Vorasamni (496 lines).

At Vilayat, land has already been made available to BSNL for installing an exchange.

There is sufficient spare connection available.

ISDN facility is available at Dahej Exchange and internet (dial-up) is available from all

the exchanges. Broadband (Tier II) has been planned at Dahej in the region and

Broadband (DSLAM) has been planned for Dahej, Janiadra, Ambheta, Bhensli,

Lakhigam, Rahiyad and Birla Copper. WLL-BTS is available at Dahej and Vagra in the

region. GSM-BTS is available at Bhensli, Dahej, Lakhigam and Vagra and planned at

Ambetha and Vadadla in PCPIR.

It is proposed that additional telecommunication facilities required for the

telecommunication within PCPIR be located within the utility zone.
