i. The Forest (Conservation) Act,

1980

As per the IBM approved mining plan of

Karamkund-I, Karamkund-II, Talawadi&

OBM-V, the site is designated as private land

in which no forest land is involved thus no

clearance is required from forest department.

ii. The Wildlife (Protection) Act, 1972

The mining lease lies at a distance

S.

No. Item Details

5.19km from Marine Sanctuary and Gaga

Bird Sanctuary at a distance 18.3kmfrom

lease. Eco sensitive Zone of Marine

Sanctuary and Marine National Park is

demarcated as 1 km and lease is located

outside the ESZ of MS/MNP and more

than 10 km away from Gaga Bird

Sanctuary, based on this, it is clear that

no clearance from the Standing

Committee of the National Board for

Wildlife (NBWL) is required.

iii. The C.R.Z Notification, 1991

The CRZ Notification has been revised as

of 2011. The lease does not fall in the

Coastal Regulation Zone as per this

notification because:

a) The mine is located at a distance greater

than the High Tide Line (HTL), i.e.500m on

the landward side along the sea front. (As

per preliminary estimates, the mine is

located ~ 5.9 km from the edge of the

coastline).

b) There is no tidally influenced water body

within 100 m of the mine. (As per

preliminary estimates the nearest possibly

tidally influenced water body is ~ 5.9 km in

NW & Rani River is at 4.5 km in West

direction and Rani river dam is at 3.8 km in

west direction from the mine site).

c) There is no hazard line demarcation done

by the Survey of India (SoI) in the area as

on date, but considering the distance of

the mine from the coast / HTL, it is unlikely

that the Hazard Line would be in the

vicinity of the mine

The mine does not lie in the inter-tidal

zone of the sea or the tidally influenced

water body.

22 Whether there is any Government order /

policy, relevant / relating to the site No

23 Forest land involved (ha.)

Nil, No Forest Land is involved within the

lease area, however it may be present

within the study area (comprises 10km

IDENTIFICATION OF SOURCES OF POLLUTION

Data Generation

This includes the following:

Identifying the sources of pollution of air, water, land and noise;

Quantifying the emissions from the pollution generating sources; and

Quantification of solid wastes and likely disposal methods will be suggested.

Sources of Pollution

The likely sources of air and water pollution will be identified and quantified;

The proposed pollution control measures envisaged in project area for fugitive

dust, noise pollution and other environmental effects of each project activities

will be assessed ;

The present and proposed changes in land use pattern will be identified; and

Based on various project activities, the likely impact on the environment

attributes in project area will be identified by:

o Estimating the air pollution levels for SPM, PM10, PM2.5, SO2 and NOx in

the study area

o Estimating the source emissions for each project specific pollutants;

o Predicting the noise dispersions for all the noise generating sources;

o Predicting the impact of wastewater discharges, if any;


PAGE-4

o Studying the short-term and long-term effects on sensitive targets like

endangered species, crops and historically/archaeologically important

sites (if any).

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT

The proposed project will have an impact on the environment. The parameters likely

to be affected are air quality, water quality, soil quality and noise levels etc on

account of gaseous emissions, liquid effluent discharges, resultant particulates,

generation of solid wastes etc will be discussed.

The baseline data generated from the above studies will be analyzed and compared

with applicable standards prescribed by the CPCB. By this means, the impact

whether positive or negative will be assessed and the environmental attributes

requiring special attention for mitigating the negative impact, if any, will be identified.

Also the areas, which fulfil the prescribed environmental norms and not requiring

further improvements, will be specified. Both short-term and long term impacts

particularly on sensitive targets such as habitat of endangered species of wildlife or

mines, crops, historically/culturally important sites/monuments, centres with

concentrated population in the study area will be established.

The impacts of project on various components of environment and the possible

mitigation measures for mitigating the negative impacts are described in the

following sections.

Impact on Land Use

Impact Assessment

The land use impacts due to proposed mining activity will be identified in terms of

local land use planning efforts. The change in land use pattern of project site will also

be identified. This includes visual impact, impact on forest and impact due to socio-

economic factors.

Mitigation Measures

The mitigation measures will be addressed towards restoration of land disturbed by

the proposed project activities to the extent possible.

Impact on Ambient air Quality

Impact Assessment

Source inventory will be carried in the study area. A computer based internationally

recognized mathematical air quality model will be used to predict the concentration


PAGE-5

of SO2, NOx & PM due to proposed project. The results will be presented for short-

term (24-hourly) concentrations in and around the project site.

Mitigation Measures

Potential mitigation measures include the control measures at the source level. The

measures to control the fugitive dust emissions will also be suggested according to

guidelines of CPCB.

Impact on Noise

Impact Assessment

Sources of noise and its impact on the environment will be addressed. The noise

level at varying distances for multi-sources will be predicted using Noise model. A

comparison of measured noise (Leq) at monitoring locations to that of predicted

noise levels (Leq) will be made and mitigation measures will be recommended to

conform to regulatory ambient air noise standards.

Baseline noise levels in different zones like industrial, residential and silence areas

like hospitals, schools etc will be monitored. The potential noise level exposure will

be determined and evaluate for acceptable limits of exposure.

Mitigation Measures

The potential mitigation measures will be addressed to reduce noise levels by control

at source, isolation of high noise generating sources, use of protective measures

especially in high noise areas and development of greenbelt.

Impact on Ecology

Impacts on aquatic species especially during dry season will be assessed

particularly those which are endangered, if any. The parameters, which are of

concern, are TSS, TDS, heavy metals, oil and grease, pH and temperature. The

assessment will also include impacts of chlorinated organic chemicals. The impact of

site preparation activities involving site clearing, excavation, earth moving,

dewatering or impounding water bodies and developing burrow and fill areas will be

assessed. Recommendations will be made to mitigate such adverse impacts as soil

erosion and habitat loss. In addition, impact of fugitive dust emissions will be

assessed on the surrounding species of economic/genetic/biological importance.

Impact on Water Use

Impact Assessment

The impacts of the proposed project due to water usage and wastewater discharges

will be addressed covering the following:

Habitat conditions; and


PAGE-6

Recreation resources and aesthetics.

Mitigation Measures

The mitigation measures will be addressed ensuring the present and anticipated

future water requirements for various purposes. The measures also address the

need to maintain or improve the existing Class of Water (as per IS: 2296) to ensure

that the current/proposed uses are not impaired due to deterioration of the water

quality.

Impact on Water Quality

Impact Assessment

No major impacts are envisaged on water quality of the region due to the project

activities.

Deterioration of Groundwater and surface water quality are not envisaged due to the

project activities.

Impact on Demography and Socio-Economics

Impact Assessment

On the basis of the information proposed to be collected and employment and other

potential for the benefits of surrounding community of the study area, the likely

socio-economic impacts of proposed project during operation will be assessed in

detailed.

Mitigation Measures

Strategies to mitigate the negative impacts if any due to the project will be

suggested.

Impact on Soil

2.1.4 Demand-Supply Gap

This is an existing captive mine for supply of high grade material to Orient Abrasive Limited’s

Plant located at Porbandar. The plant is under expansion, the Supply and Demand gap is 40%,

and the project clearance will further reduce the Demand & Supply gap. Hence demand supply

issues whilst important, are considered in the current situation.

2.1.5 Imports v/s Indigenous Production

This is an existing mine for the supply of high grade material to OAL’s plant located at Porbandar

and OAL has not imported high grade material yet.

2.1.6 Export Possibility

High grade bauxite from the mine will be used in OAL’s manufacturing unit and Value Addition

industry at Porbandar, while low grade will be sold to local consumers only after getting

permission from Government of Gujarat.

2.1.7 Domestic / Export Markets

High grade bauxite from the mine will be used in OAL’s manufacturing unit at Porbandar, while

low grade will be sold to local consumers only after getting permission from Government of

Gujarat.

2.1.8 Employment Generation (Direct and Indirect) due to the Project

2.2.6 Conceptual Mining Plan

Ultimate Pit Limit


MINING OF 22790




JULY 2015 14 | P A G E

In the ML area the mineralised limits are determined either by the limit of the ML boundary or by

the limits of the ore body. These limits have been duly marked in the geological plan. The ultimate

pit limit has also will be marked in conceptual plan plate no 9.During coming 10 years the entire

lease area leaving statutory barrier will be converted into one pit. It is B category mine. The

conceptual plan for Karamkund-I has been prepared up lease renewal period (year 2024). The

lease area of Karamkund-I will be converted in to one pit having dimension 280 m in length width

varies from 48m to 90m and average depth will be about 3.5m as shown in conceptual plan plate

no. 9.The lease area of Karamkund-II will be converted into one void having dimension 280m

length & width varies from 31m to 91m respectively and average depth will be about 5m from the

surface as shown in conceptual plan no. 9. The lease area of Talawadi will be converted into one

voids having dimension 417m in length and width varies from 137m to 272m average depth will

be about 4.6 m from the surface as shown in conceptual plan plate no. 9. The conceptual plan for

OBM-V lease has been prepared up lease renewal period (year 2019). The lease area of OBM-V

will be converted in to one pit having dimension 286 m in length varies from 20m to 135m and

average depth will be about 5.5m as shown in conceptual plan plate no. 9.

Stacking of mineral reject and disposal of waste:-


The backfilling will be carried out after excavation of bauxite up to full thickness. Backfilling of

overburden and waste will be done side by side at the time of generation itself hence question its

height and spread does not arise. As volume of voids is much more than material available for

backfilling. Backfilling of the entire mined out land upto original ground level will not possible.

Therefore south part of mined out area will be backfilled and other part of the mined out area will

be used as water reservoir.

transported by hired /owned truck to company’s manufacturing unit at Porbandar. Low grade

bauxite will be stacked separately.

2.2.11 Resource Optimization / Recycling and Reuse Envisaged in the Project

The following will be done • The mineralized waste generated during the mining period will be backfilled in order to

reduce the change in land cover or topography of the area. This backfilled area will be

used for greenbelt development

• Complete backfilling is not possible so a part of mine out area will be used as water

reservoir and stored water will be used for watering the plantation and for dust

suppression. In addition to this water stored in mined out pits will be used by farmers and

villagers in nearby area thus reducing the ground water dependency.

• Mine will be worked only in day time (8 hr/ day) and around 72 persons will work,

therefore the domestic waste generated will be low and it is possible to recycle. As it

doesn’t require electricity because working will be only in Day time.

2.2.12 Availability of Water its Source and Energy/Power Requirement

Water

For domestic use water will be supplied by the means of tankers from the nearby village.

For greenbelt development and dust suppression water stored in mined out pits will be used.

For domestic purpose: 3.24 KLD

For dust suppression: 64.26 KLD

For plantation: 0.735 KLD

Fuel/Power Requirement

The mine will be worked during an eight hours shift i.e. during day time only and hence no

electricity is required for lighting. Diesel, ̴ 3 lit/hr will be used as fuel for running pump for

dewatering in rainy season that too for some time.

2.2.13 Waste Generation and Management

Nature of Waste & Rate of yearly generation

In the proposed mining scheme the OB is likely to be generated during scheme period will be Soil

and will be spread on backfilled area.


MINING OF 22790




JULY 2015 19 | P A G E

The waste that is likely to be generated will be in the form of associated clay with the bauxite

horizon as mineral waste which is below the threshold grade, which has no sale value. That will be

backfilled in mined out pits.

Selection of Dumping Site

In the proposed mining scheme, it is suggested that the old stack OB and waste generated during

scheme period will be backfilled in west part of mined out area after winning full thickness of

bauxite. As available voids is much more than the required ones. The problem for disposal of OB

and waste will not be there. The old stack OB and waste generated in next five years will be

refilled into the matured voids. First of all overburden except soil will be backfilled in to the voids

and soil will be spreading over backfilled area. Extend of backfilling has been given on next page.

The lease area of Karamkund-I available for backfilling during five years scheme period will be

4544 m2 and anticipated quantum of generation of waste will be 14495 m3. The above waste will

be backfilled 4142 me area upto original ground level. The lease area of OBM-V available for


MINING OF 22790




JULY 2015 20 | P A G E

backfilling during scheme period will be 3179 m2. The anticipated quantum of generation of waste

and OB will be 1157 m3. Karamkund-II &Talawadiduring scheme period will be backfilled

simultaneously in mined out pits as shown in plate no. 7 of year wise development plan. Part of

mined out land will be used as water reservoir.

Method of Dumping & Maximum Height and Spread of dumps


The backfilling will be carried out after excavation of bauxite up to full thickness. Backfilling of

overburden and waste will be done side by side at the time of generation itself hence question its

height and spread does not arise. As volume of voids is much more than material available for

backfilling. Backfilling of the entire mined out land upto original ground level will not possible.

Therefore south part of mined out area will be backfilled and other part of the mined out area will

be used as water reservoir.

2.8 Analysis of proposal (Final Recommendations)

2.8.1 Financial and Social Benefits with Special Emphasis on the Benefit to the Local

People including Tribal Population, if any, in the Area

Critical analysis of the existing socio-economic profile of the area vis-à-vis its scenario with

proposed project activities identifies the following:

About 72miners will be engaged in mining activities for the project and about 50 people for

ancillary activities.

The proposed activities shall generate indirect employment in the region due to the requirement of

workers in supply auxiliary such as higher machinery service and Ore Transport service afford from

the ancillary works, which would marginally improve the economic status of the people.

Further the additional benefits from the downstream units such as iron industry, steel industry,

cement plant, and metallurgical industry also add value to the society.
