floor from where it will be pumped out and diverted to mine discharge treatment plant

consisting of oil and grease trap and sedimentation pond(s) with chemical dozing arrangement

to arrest suspended solids and oil and grease. Then, treated water will be used for dust

suppression in haul road and CHP besides washing of dumpers and/or dozers in workshop. The

sludge collected from the pond(s) will be utilized as landfill in the decoaled area. The oily sludge

from oil and grease trap(s) will be disposed off in the impervious layer lined pit. Oil and grease

recovered manually from the trap(s) will be stored in drums safely for disposal through auction.

plant consisting of pre and post-settling chambers/tanks and oil and grease trap (OGT). The

treated effluent from this plant will be collected in a tank for recycling the same for industrial

use resulting in ‘zero discharge’. The sludge collected from the settling chamber will be disposed

off as landfill in the decoaled area. Oil and grease manually reclaimed from the trap will be

stored in drums safely for disposal through auction. Oily sludge will be disposed off in the

impervious layer lined pit.

solids (TSS) and bio-chemical oxygen demand (BOD). Treated water will be utilized for watering

the plants.

as Stemming material to be used is sand. However, the drill cuttings can be used as an effective

stemming material with proper packing. Use of millisecond delay detonators that are initiated

by shock tube initiation system, between rows and between holes in the same row. Blasting will

be done in day time during the shift change over period as per requirement. However, the

frequency of blasting will depend upon the availability of land (tenancy in particular), DGMS

permission for use of explosive, meteorological condition, geo-mining condition and method of

mining. Before blasting is done, an audible warning shall be given so that people can move to

safe places. As per other conditions imposed by DGMS.

9 Factors which should be considered (such as consequential

development) which could lead to environmental effects or the

potential for cumulative impacts with other existing or planned

activities in the locality


FORM-1 Annexure-I

9.1. Lead to development of supporting facilities, ancillary

development or development stimulated by the project which could

have impact on the environment e.g.

o supply industries

o Other

(Yes/No) (If Yes, Details thereof (with approximate quantities/rates,

wherever possible) with source of information data.
