4. NOISE ENVIRONMENT

Base line data indicates that noise levels in the ambient air environment are within the prescribed norms. The industry will provide adequate noise control measures such as mufflers & silencers at the air inlet/outlet, anti vibration pad for equipment with have extreme vibration etc. Ear plugs & ear muffs will be provided to the workers where noise level will remain extremely high. Thus, there will be short term, reversible impact on the noise environment due to the proposed project. 5. LAND ENVIRONMENT

Air pollution, water pollution and solid waste pollute soil and causes direct/indirect effect on soil. Since all necessary air pollution control measures have been provided and based on the results of the dispersion model for the ground level concentration of various pollutants after the commissioning of the Proposed Project, there will not be any adverse impact of air pollution on soil. All necessary control measures will be provided for handling, storage and safe disposal of solid/hazardous waste, which will be generated from the proposed project. Thus, there will not be any significant impact of solid waste on the soil Environment.

6. ECOLOGY

Impacts on terrestrial ecosystem due to the operation of plant occur mainly from air emissions. Air pollutants can impact adversely on the biotic and abiotic components of the ecosystem and may include injurious effects when concentration of these pollutants exceed from permissible limit. The unit will provide appropriate APCM to control air pollution, so, there will be no adverse impact on the ecological environment of the study area. Total plot area is 3366 Sq. meter. From that they will do gardening and plantation for 1121 Sq. Meter which is 33.3 % of the total plot area.

The company will also develop plantation as per the MoEF guidelines all along the periphery of plant so that these trees perform as natural barrier for bring down the fugitive emission and also stop carryover of dust along with wind current. 7. SOCIO-ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT Due to Proposed project, 9 nos. of local people and outside people will get employment during the construction phase and 15 peoples will be employed during the operation phase.

The indirect employment will also be generated by way of transportation, shopkeepers and other casual employment for many people. Thus, the proposed project will have long term- irreversible positive impact on the employment pattern of the study area.

1.2 IDENTIFICATION OF PROJECT AND PROJECT

PROPONENT

Environment Impact Assessment or EIA is a study to predict the effect of a proposed projection or its expansion activity on the environment. It is a management tool to facilitate appropriate decision; an EIA compares various alternatives for a project and seeks to identify the one, which represents the best combination of economic and environmental costs and benefits.

It helps to identify possible environmental effects of the proposed project, proposes measures to mitigate adverse effects and predicts whether there will be significant adverse environmental effects, even after the mitigation is implemented. By considering environmental effects and mitigation early in the project planning cycle, environmental assessment has many benefits, such as protection of environment, optimum utilization of resources and saves

overall time and cost of the project.

On 27th January 1994, the Union Ministry of Environment and Forests (MoEF), Government of India, under the Environmental (Protection) Act 1986, promulgated EIA Notification making Environmental Clearance (EC) mandatory for expansion or modernization of any activity or for setting up new projects listed in Schedule of the notification and its subsequent amendments.

On 14th September 2006, a new legislation was passed, which has objectives such as “To formulate a transparent, decentralized and efficient regulatory mechanism; to incorporate necessary environmental safeguards at planning stage; to involve stakeholders in the public consultation process and to identify developmental projects based on impact potential instead of the investment criteria”

The developmental activities requiring Environmental Clearance (EC) are:

• All new projects/activities listed in Schedule;

o Expansion and modernization of existing projects or activities listed in the Schedule to this Notification with addition of capacity beyond the limits specified for the concerned sector, that is, projects or activities which cross the threshold limits given in the Schedule, after expansion or modernization;

o Any change in product - mix in an existing manufacturing unit included

in Schedule beyond the specified range.

The projects or activities shall require prior environmental clearance from the concerned regulatory authority, as the Central Government in the Ministry of Environment and Forests for matters falling under Category ‘A’ in the schedule and at State level the State Environment Impact Assessment Authority (SEIAA) for matters falling under Category ‘B’ in the said Schedule, before any construction work, or preparation of land by the project management except for securing the land, is started on the project or activity. As per the provisions of the new re-engineered EIA Notification of 2006, the company requires to obtain prior Environmental Clearance from the State Level Environmental Appraisal Authority or from the Ministry of Environment & Forests, New Delhi as stated in the said Notification. This Proposed project falls under Synthetic organic Chemical Industry which is listed in Schedule and falls under Clause No. 5 (f) of Category “A” (Located outside notified industrial area / estate) of Schedule as stated in Environmental Impact Assessment Notification published on 14th September 2006 and its vide amendment.

As specified in sub paragraph (ii) of paragraph 2, of the stated Notification of the Government of India, Proposed project requires prior environmental

clearance from the Ministry of Environment Forest Climate change as, Proposed project is located outside the notified industrial area [Clause No. 5 (f)] of Category “A”. For this the industry is required to submit draft Environmental Impact Assessment Study report to State Pollution Control Board, Gujarat for Public hearing and final EIA report to Ministry of Environment Forest & Climate change, New Delhi. In order to assess the Environmental Impacts arising due to the proposed project, the company has appointed M/s. Bhagwati Enviro Care Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad to undertake the Environmental Impact Assessment for various components of the Environment.

The growing demand of the various kinds of Dyes and Dyes Intermediates in the domestic as well as international markets has provided a strong basis to M/s. SHREY INDUSTRIES for their proposed unit located at Survey No. 111 & 112, Plot No. 7 & 8, Village: Dhanot, Ta: Kalol, Dist: Gandhinagar (Gujarat).

The proposed project will help in the following aspects.

• To earn a substantial amount of foreign exchange through business development, manufacturer & sales of fine chemical products.

• To generate adequate employment for people in neighbouring areas. • To generate indirect employment.

1.3 OBJECTIVES OF EIA STUDY The project activities are listed in serial No. 5 (f) of the schedule of EIA

Notification, 2006 (synthetic Organic Chemical industries). Since the proposed project is coming up outside the notified industrial area, it is categorized as category ‘A’ and needs the Environmental clearance from Ministries of Environment Forest Climate Change.

The Environmental study undertaken is aimed at identifying existing

Environmental conditions; predicting Environmental impacts associated with the proposed unit and suggesting mitigation measures to mitigate the adverse Environmental impacts. The different activities that are likely to take place have been analyzed and proposed mitigation measures are assessed for their adequacy. Proposed mitigation measures have been considered where necessary.

The study also aims at reflecting the acceptability of the project to different stockholders and at incorporating the concerns raised by them into impact assessment and of the subsequent comprehensive Environmental management Plan and suggest the preventive and mitigative measures to minimize the adverse impacts on the environment and to maximize the beneficial impacts.

2.12 MANUFACTURING PROCESS DETAILS, CHEMICAL REACTION

AND MASS BALANCE

Manufacturing Process:

→ CPC Green is produced by Chlorination of Copper Phthalocyanine Blue (CPC). → The basic Mfg. process involves two distinct steps. Synthesis of crude CPC green

from CPC Blue and purification with solvent. → In a glass lined reactor, CPC Blue is charged with sodium chloride, Cupric Chloride

and anhydrous Aluminum Chloride with their respective proportion. → Whole mixture is maintained at elevated temperature. Then pass chlorine gas into

the mixture. → During the reaction gaseous HCl mist and unreacted chlorine gas are evolved. → HCl gas and unreacted chlorine gas are scrubbed by water and caustic spray in

consecutive packed column scrubber. These can result in dilute HCl and NaOCl (Sodium Hypo Chlorite) generation, which are used in ETP for treating trade effluent.

→ After completion of chlorination, the eutectic melt contain sodium chloride, Aluminium Chloride, Cupric Chloride and CPC Green is drowned in water in a rubber lined vessel.

→ Aluminium Chloride will be converted into Aluminium Hydroxides and HCl gas is released and it will be also sent to acid & alkali scrubber.

→ The slurry containing crude CPC green is filtered through filter press, followed by washing with water, until pH of the cake become neutral.

→ Mother liquor is sent to Aluminium Hydroxide recovery and then to ETP. → The cake is purified by solvent treatment, In which the cake is refluxed in closed

reactor containing solvent, emulsifier and water containing NaOH. Solvent will recovered by steam distillation.

→ The slurry is then filtered and washed with water and dematerialized water till pH is neutral.

→ The solvent is used for further purification. → The wet cake of CPC Green is dried in spin flash dryer to get required mesh size of

final product CPC Green for final packing.

2.29 SCHEME FOR RAIN WATER HARVESTING

The source of water for the project will be water tanker. The unit has also proposed to design & implement rain water harvesting scheme within premises. The parameter considered for designing the Rain water harvesting is as follows:

• The average rainfall of the area considered for the design is 800 mm/year.

• The paved area available in front. • The amount of water collected from the run off. • The roof top area available. • The amount of water collected from the roof top. • Considering one hour of peak rainfall. • Total rain water to be collected.

Hence rain water harvesting pit will be made to collect the rain water from roof top and paved area based on the above data consideration. M/s SHREY INDUSTRIES (Proposed project) has assigned M/s Bhagawati Enviro Care Pvt. Ltd. to conduct EIA/EMP study & Comprehensive hydro-geological & rainwater harvesting studies in Survey No. 111 & 112, Plot No. 7 & 8, Village: Dhanot, Ta: Kalol, Dist: Gandhinagar (Gujarat). The project area details are as under:

S. No. Particulars Area (sq. m )

1 Total Plot Area 3366

2 Roof top area 1528.5

3 Paved /road area 566.5

4 Green belt area /Open area 1271.0

The water supply by tankar of the project is 84.6 m3/day & it falls in city- Kalol

block of Gandinagar District, which falls under “Over-Exploited ” category

according to CGWB Publication “Dynamic Ground Water Resources of India –

2011”. The assignment was given to work out the scope of

geology,Hydrogeological & artificial recharge through detailed survey.




DESIGN OF RAINWATER HARVESTING: For good design of rainwater harvesting, following points are to be kept under

consideration:

(a) Ideal location with good ground slope.

(b) The location has adequate subsurface permeability of the aquifer to

accommodate maximum recharge of rainwater through injection well.

(c) Rate of filtration should exceed average rainfall intensity.

(d) Clogging of filtration media should be cleaned periodically.

(e) Ground water pollution does not take place.

ROOFTOP RAIN WATER HARVESTING: Total rooftop area of project is 1528.5 m2 that may be connected through pipes and

drains to Rainwater harvesting structures which has storage chamber and the

percolation pits as per sites having rooms for recharge in resonance with average

rainfall, catchment area and peak rainfall intensity.

Looking in to the average rainfall in this region, roof top area of the building, rain water

harvesting structures are designed in such a way that even at peak rainfall intensity of

40 mm/day, water does not spill over & the entire rainwater falling over the total area

goes in to the ground water body. Following dimensional parameters are considered

for design of Rainwater harvesting system in the project premises.

Total Rooftop area = 1528.5 m2

Average rainfall =857 mm = 0.86 m

Catchment factor for Roof top = 0.85 (as per C.G.W.A)

Total volume of water to be captured = 1528.5 x 0.86 x 0.85 = 1117.33 m3

The dimension of the structures to be designed for 40 mm/hour peak rainfall

intensity. Considering 15 minutes of peak rainfall, runoff volume in a single storm

should be:

(1528.5 m2 x 0.85 x 0.04 m)/4 = 12.99 m3




ROAD/PAVED AREA STORM WATER RUNOFF HARVESTING: In road storm water harvesting system, drains may be made along the roads with

iron net filter of 2 mm opening at every 20 m. Rainwater falling on the road/paved

area is carried through these drains to rainwater harvesting structure and allow to

infiltered in groundwater regime. This will improve groundwater quality as well as

quantity in and around the project premises. Following dimensional parameters are

considered for design of road storm water harvesting system in the project premises.

Total Road/paved area = 566.5 m2

Average rainfall = 857 mm = 0.86 m

Catchment factor for Road/paved area = 0.75 (as per C.G.W.B.)

Total volume of water to be captured = 566.5 x 0.86 x 0.75 =

365.39m3/annum

The dimension of the structures to be designed for 40 mm/hour peak rainfall

intensity. Considering 15 minutes of peak rainfall, runoff volume in a single storm

should be:

566.5 m2 x 0.75 x 0.04 m/4 = 4.25 m3

OPEN AREA RAINWATER HARVESTING: The total open area of project is 1271 m2 which may be connected through drains to

rainwater harvesting structures which has storage chamber and the percolation pits

as per sites having rooms for recharge in resonance with average rainfall, catchment area and peak rainfall intensity.

Following dimensional parameters are considered for design of open area rainwater harvesting system in the project premises.

Total open area = 1271 m2

Average rainfall = 857 mm = 0.86 m Catchment factor for open area = 0.15 (as per C.G.W.A) Total volume of water to be captured = 1271 x 0.86 x 0.15 = 163.96 m3

The dimension of the structures to be designed for 40 mm/hour peak rainfall intensity. Considering 15 minutes of peak rainfall, runoff volume in a single storm should be:

12715 m2 x 0.15 x 0.04 m/4 = 1.91 m3




DESIGN OF RAINWATER HARVESTING STRUCTURE: The total volume of water generated in project premises from rooftop, road/paved & open area in a single storm on 40 mm peak rainfall intensity would be

= 12.99 m3 + 4.25m3 + 1.91 m3 = 19.15 m3

The individual design is made for accumulation of 27 m3 of water i.e. 18 m3 of water

in collection tank (3 m height x 3 m length x 2 m width and about 9 m3 in the

process of infiltration through filtration media of recharge well. Hence, the

dimensional parameters of collection chamber would be 3 m (length) x 3 m (width) x

2 (depth). The filtration tank dimension would be 3 m (length) x 3 m (width) x 1 m

(depth) with 0.15 m dia recharge well (1 nos.) of 8 m depth depending upon the

formation for recharge in aquifer through vadose zone. The systematic design of the

structures will be given in fig. – 4.




TOTAL RECHARGE POTENTIAL On completion of Rainwater Harvesting & other recharge factors, additional recharge potential in the premises would be as under: 1. Rooftop Rainwater harvesting in the premises

1528.5*0.85*0.86 = 1117.33

2. Road storm water harvesting in the premises

566.5*0.86*0.75 = 365.40

3. Recharge due to open area in the premises

1271*0.86*0.15 = 163.96

4. Recharge due to return flow of water used in plantation

2*305*.05 = 30.5

Total 1677.19 (Note - formula =area * run-off coefficients* rain fall {mm/1000}) The recharge potential to be created by artificial measures will be 1677.19 m3/annum

which would help in maintaining groundwater regime in terms of quantity & quality.

RECOMMENDATIONS: The total volume of water generated in project premises from rooftop, road/paved & open area in a single storm on 40 mm peak rainfall intensity would be 19.15 m3. It is revealed from recharge test that the aquifer would good

accept water to the order of 84.6 m3/day @3.54 m3/hour continuously in long term

through vadose zone. Considering the space availability, Now, we will proposed

percolation tank with 27 KLD capacity and such 1 structures will accommodate up to

total rainfall volume of 24.83 m3 in any rainfall event at peak rainfall occurrence. The

individual design is made for accumulation of 27 m3 of water i.e. 18 m3 of water in

collection tank (3 m height x 3 m length x 2 m width and about 9 m3 in the process of

infiltration through filtration media of recharge well. Hence, the dimensional

parameters of collection chamber would be 3 m (length) x 3 m (width) x 2 (depth).

The filtration tank dimension would be 3 m (length) x 3 m (width) x 1 m (depth) with

0.15 m dia recharge well (1 nos.) of 8 m depth depending upon the formation for

recharge in aquifer through vadose zone.




One piezometers are proposed to be installed in the plant premises as per CGWB

norms for monitoring of season-wise water levels & water quality for ascertaining the

impact of ground water extraction & artificial recharge measures on ground water

regime. As per design, a borehole of 6” diameter should be drilled up to 20 m depth

by powerful DTH machine having air compressor of at least 300 psi and 1100 cfm.

Thereafter, development of tube-well should be carried out by at least 300 psi &

1100 cfm air compressor for minimum of 4 hrs or till nearly sand free water is

obtained. The pipe of the bore well should be left 0.5 m above the ground level &

concrete structure may be made around this pipe in 14 inch thickness to prevent the

bore well from surface pollutants. Around the bore well, 14” dia chamber may be

made with well cap having lock & key arrangement . There should be provision of 2’

dia PVC air line in the bore well for inserting probe of automatic water level recorder

for complete precision in measurement of the water level data.

PRECAUTIONS While carrying out roof top rain water harvesting & surface runoff utilization works

following precautions must be taken so that maximum benefits are derived.

The roof tops of the buildings to be used for collection rainwater must be

cleaned before the onset of first rainfall so that any dust, leaves, pollutants do not

enter the filtration tank. Grating must be used to trap debris or tree leaves before rain

water enters the drainpipes.

A steel wire mesh may be enveloped around the slotted pipe of injection well

to minimize the clogging of slots.

The filter material must be washed with water before putting in the filtration

tanks as these may be covered with silt or clay. Every year, before the onset of first

monsoon, the filter material must be taken out and washed and then put back in the

filtration tank & others recharge structures sot that silt/ clay deposited during the

filtration process of preceding year is removed and original filtration rate is achieved.

It is necessary to collect data about different environmental attributes that are being affected by the development of the region which, in turn, defines an existing environmental quality of the region to serve as the datum.

Base line data requirement is also necessary to identify environmentally significant issues as well as to enumerate the critical environmental changes that are occurred due to the industrial development of the region.

Here an attempt has been made to collect the information about an existing environment on the below mentioned eight major environmental attributes:

I - Air Environment

II - Meteorology

III - Water Environment

IV - Hydro-geomorphology

V - Noise

VI - Land Environment

VII - Ecology

VIII - Socio-economic

3.4 AIR ENVIRONMENT

3.4.1. AMBIENT AIR QUALITY (AAQ) IN THE STUDY AREA

The collection of base line information for Air Environment includes identification of specific air pollutants being released into the atmosphere having significant impact on neighborhood. The Ambient Air Quality status, with respect to the identified air pollutants, has been studied at eight major locations. This has been done through Air Quality surveillance program and based on TOR.

The back-ground air quality for PM10, PM2.5, Sulphur Dioxide (SO2), Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx), CO, HC, Cl2, HCl including VOCs was monitored. The monitoring for these parameters has been done at sites located in different directions and situated within the suspected impact zone, in and around the existing project site. We had considered minimum one monitoring station in the upwind direction and minimum one monitoring station in the pre dominant downwind direction at a location where maximum ground level concentration is likely to occur.

3.4.1.1. THE LOCATION OF AAQ STATIONS

The locations of the AAQ stations are based on prevailing meteorology,

pollution source and available infrastructure facilities. One station has been particulary set-up in down wind direction.


83



Thus, monitoring has been done at eight sampling stations located in different directions and situated within the suspected impact zone in and around the existing project site. The locations map of the AAQ monitoring station is shown in Figure No. 3.1 and tabulated in Table No. 3.2.

3.5 METEOROLOGY

Meteorological conditions, of the site, regulates the transport and diffusion of air-pollutants released into the atmosphere. Ambient temperature, wind speed, wind direction and atmospheric stability are called primary or basic Meteorological Parameters because the dispersion and diffusion of pollutants depend mainly on these Parameters. Humidity, precipitation, pressure and visibility are secondary Meteorological Parameters as this control the dispersion of the pollutants indirectly by affecting primary Parameters.

3.6 Baseline Data Meteorological data were obtained from our Envitrans for project site specific. for the parameters namely ambient temperature, wind speed, wind direction, relative humidity for the period October, November & December 2018.The Wind Rose diagram for the month of October, November & December 2018. is shown in Figure No. 3.4.

3.6.1 Ambient Temperature

The monthly variations of monthly highest and monthly lowest temperatures recorded are as follows:

Location – Project site Temperature, oC

October 2018

November 2018

December 2018

Minimum 17.45 15.45 7.65 Maximum 35.95 33.55 29.05

3.6.2 Wind Speed

Wind speed determines the rate of diffusion and travel time of air pollutants. The results of monitoring are as follows:

Location – Project Site Wind Velocity, m/s

October 2018

November 2018

December 2018

Minimum 0 0 0 Maximum 9.12 8.96 9.11

3.6.3 Wind Direction

This is important in air pollution since it determines the direction of transport of air pollutants. The mean wind direction will be indicative of the direction of travel of the pollutants. The meteorological parameters namely: ambient temperature, wind speed, wind direction and stability class were obtained from Envitrans specific to the project site. for the Period of October, November & December 2018.

3.6.5 Climate & Rain Fall

The district experiences semi-arid type of climate. The rainy season lasts from June to September and coincides with south-west monsoon. Winter season last from November to February and summer season from March to June. About 95% of the annual rainfall is received during south-west monsoon season (June to Sept.), July being the heavy rainfall month. There is no climatological station in Gandhinagar, however, the IMD Station located at Ahmedabad Airport is quite close to Gandhinagar and is representative for the district. The general temperature in Gandhinagar district increases rapidly from February to May, the later being the hottest month with mean daily maximum and minimum temperature as 41° and 26°C respectively. The district is sometimes affected by cold waves due to western disturbances that pass across north India causing minimum temperature to drop the freezing point. In the monsoon months, the relative humidity is generally 65% or more. However, the rest of the year is comparatively dry. March and April are the driest months where the humidity in less than 45% dropping to 20% or less in the afternoons. Rainfall plays a major role in groundwater availability. Almost 90% of the total annual rainfall is received during the southwest monsoon, The mean annual rainfall of last 5 years (2013 to 2017) for the nearest rain gauge station –Gandinagar is about 857 mm, based on IMD data.

3.9 WATER ENVIRONMENT

Water is the most vital resource for all kinds of life. It should not only be available in sufficient quantity but should be of good quality as well. Defilement of water, as a result of human activities, industrial activities and consequent pollution of water, cause deterioration of the water environment.

3.9.1 BASELINE DATA COLLECTION GW & SW

Physico-chemical Parameters have been used for assessing the base line quality of ground water environment and identification of impacts due to the proposed project. Methodology for Water Quality Monitoring The Samples, under all categories, were analysed for various Parameters specified by the Department of Environment. For the collection, preservation and analysis, APHA/IS methods were followed. The requisite Procedures, laid down in APHA/IS methods, were adopted for preserving the Samples with suitable preservative chemicals. The Samples were analysed within the time limits prescribed for each Parameter. Ground water sources and surface water sources covering 10-km radial distance were examined for physico-chemical, heavy metals and bacteriological parameters in order to assess the effect of industrial and other activities on ground water and surface water. The samples were analyzed as per the procedures specified in 'Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater' published by American Public Health Association (APHA). Samples for chemical analysis were collected in polyethylene carboys. Samples for bacteriological analysis were collected in sterilized glass bottles. Selected physicochemical and bacteriological parameters have been analyzed for projecting the existing water quality status in the study area. Parameters like pH and temperature were analyzed at the time of sample collection. The details of surface and ground water sampling locations are given in Table 3.13 and sampling locations of ground water quality and surface quality monitoring are shown in Figure 3.3. The physico - chemical characteristics of the ground water samples and surface water samples are presented in the Tables 3.14.

3.12 LAND USE PATTERN

Remote Sensing is a process of identification and demarcation of various

earths’ objects from a distance without directly coming into contact with them.

Remote sensing is largely concerned with the measurement of

electromagnetic radiation from the sun, which is reflected, scattered, and

emitted by the objects on the surface of the earth. Different objects on the

surface of the earth reflect different amounts of the electromagnetic spectrum.

The potential of remote sensing in natural resources mapping basically

depends on spatial, radiometric and temporal resolution of the sensor. Thus

the satellite remote sensing with its capability of repetitive coverage, multi-

spectral imaging, synoptic view and low cost can play an important role in the

delineation of various landuse landcover classes.

Land cover is a fundamental parameter describing the Earth’s surface. This

parameter is a considerable variable that impacts on and links many parts of

the human and physical environments. Remote sensing technique has ability

to represent of land cover categories by means of classification process. With

the availability of multispectral remotely sensed data in digital form and the

developments in digital processing, remote sensing supplies a new

prospective for landuse/landcover analysis. Geographical Information Systems

have already been used for assessing environmental problems, since they

provides a flexible environment and a powerful tool for the manipulation and

analysis of spatial information for land cover feature identification and the

maps of all variables were combined to extract information to better

understand analyzing. Satellite remote sensing, in conjunction with geographic

information systems, has been widely applied and been recognized as a

powerful and effective tool in analyzing land cover/use categories This study

made use of remotely sensed data and GIS technologies; to evaluate

qualitatively and quantitatively outcome of part of land cover/use distribution.

Obtained results were compared, visualized and analyzed, in Geographic

Information System.

The Study Area up to 10 kms radius from the proposed project Site comprises

of 42 villages of Gandhinagar & Mehsana District.The locations of these

villages are shown in Figure No. 3.1.

The important land uses, as classified by the Census Records, are the Forest,

Land irrigated by different water sources, un-irrigaed areas, Cultivable waste

land and areas not available for cultivation.

Landuse and landcover distribution in the study area has been estimated using

the satellite imagery of generated from Landsat ETM+ scene of October 2006

(Refer: Figure 3.7). The landuse and landcover pattern of the study area (10

km radial zone) has been studied by the same. The land use distribution in the

study area (10 km radial zone) is presented in Table 3.17.

3.13 HYDROGEOLOGY

Hydrology is the science that deals with the depletion and replenishment of water resources. It deals with surface as well as ground water. The water below the water table is known as ground water and water above the water table is known as soil moisture.

The area forms part of North Gujarat Alluvial Plain with elevations ranging from 40 to 50 m MSL. The area is under lain by post Miocene alluvium comprising sand, gravel, silt and clay. The alluvium is about 400 m thick under lain by tertiary formation. The alluvium mainly consists of palaeo deltaic, fluvial and Aeolian sediments, comprising alternate bands of fine to course grained sand, gravel and yellowish brownish sticky clay. . Ground water & Narmada water is the main source of water in the study area. Ground water is utilized for almost all uses in the area. Generally, every village has open wells and hand pumps to draw water for domestic uses. In addition to that, there are rain water storage ponds at each village of the study area, which are used by the villagers for irrigation, domestic applications other than drinking and also for cattle feeding.

The hydrogeology investigation work carried out in the study area, reveals that the litho logical logs of exploratory bore holes, electrical logging results by govt. agencies in and around Kadi taluka have been studied to understand the subsurface geology and the aquifer system. These bore holes have penetrated the thick sequence of post Miocene sediments down to 300 + m depth. The hydro geological cross sections have been prepared by CGWB to study the subsurface geology and aquifer system in the area. It is reveals that the existence of multilayered aquifer system, within a depth of 300 + m bgl. In general three distances confined aquifer with thickness varies from 12 to 30 m can be identified. The aquifer lies between,

i. 45 to 90 m ii. 100 to 180 m iii. 180 to 260 m bgl, Separated by clays.

The district forms a part of Cambay basin and is occupied by quaternary alluvium comprising mainly of sand, gravel, silt clay and Kankar etc. The Hydro-geological map of the district is presented as figure- . The ONGC has established that the thickness of alluvium in the North Gujarat is about 700 m. However. As per the studies carried out by CGWB under UNDP Project the Miocene formations were encountered within 611 m at the deepest borehole drilled in the district at Sardhao. There is a sequence pf alternating layers of granular sandy and clayey horizons, the uppermost granular zone varies in thickness from 5 to 65 m. it is underlain by a thick clay bed followed by alternating sequence of arenaceous and argillaceous horizons.


130



The granular horizons occurring at various depths forms potential aquifers. The aquifer system of the district is described below. Aquifer System Geological survey of India during its studies had identified three confined aquifers within a depth of 600 m in the adjoining Mahesana district. These were designated as “A”, “B” and “C” aquifers. Subsequently, the studies carried out by CGWB under UNDP project, which also covered the northern part of Gandhinagar district, a multi-aquifer system was established. A total of 7 aquifers zones, each separated by aquiclude of varying thickness, were identified as “A”, “B”, “C”, “D”, “E”, “F” and “G”. Of these first five i.e. “A to E” represents Quaternary alluvium, whereas, last two i.e. “F & G” represents Miocene sediments. A brief discussion of these aquifers is given in table. The thickness of quaternary alluvium is limited in the eastern part and all the aquifers are not developed in this part. Moreover, identification of different aquifers also becomes very difficult in the eastern part due to limited thickness of aquiclude. However, the aquifer system is well developed in the western part. The aquifers in the entire district are the southward and eastward extension of those identified in the UNDP Project area. The aquifer “A” in the district occurs as phreatic and semi-confined aquifer. The thickness varies from less than 25 m in the east to more than 80 m in the 9 western part. Most of the dug wells and shallow tubewells tap this aquifer. However, over the years it has gone dry and at present occurs as saturated zone only in the vicinity of Sabarmati River and in the eastern parts of Dahegam & Gandhinagar Talukas. The aquifer “B” and “C” which occurs within a depth of about 225 m, are the most exploited aquifer in the district and most of the tubewells constructed tap these aquifers. Aquifer “D” is also being developed in some parts of the district particularly in Mansa and Kalol Talukas. The deeper aquifers, i.e., “E”, “F” and “G” are required to be properly explored and tested for future use. The depth of most prolific and most exploited aquifers in the district range from about 50 m to more than 300 m. The depth of tubewells gradually increases from east to west. The Dug-cum-bore wells and shallow tubewells (<100m) are feasible in the eastern part. However, in the western part only deep tubewells are feasible. The feasible depth of tube wells ranges from less then 100 m in the eastern part to more than 300 m in parts of Mansa Taluka. The tubewells tap all potential zones upto the depth constructed. The aquifers being tapped are “B and/or C” in major part of the district. However, aquifer “A” and “D” are also being developed either in isolation or in combination of other aquifers in the eastern and western parts respectively.

3.14 ECOLOGY

Collection of comprehensive baseline information on flora and fauna

is a prerequisite for assessment of impacts of any developmental

activities The biological environment is an important component of

the environment of any area. It covers flora & fauna in the region,

details of forests and wildlife sanctuaries in the region, with list of

endangered species. These components are addressed in details in

the following sections:

Flora and fauna are important components of the environment. They

are organized into natural communities with natural dependencies

among their members and show various responses and sensitivities

to anthropogenic activities. Flora and fauna describes information on

various species of trees, plants, shrubs, crops and natural

vegetation, animal, birds etc. and endangered species.

. Though, the need of collecting ecological data is many fold more. In

the context of present study, where the time was a serious constraint

for seasonal data collection on different ecological parameters, the

focus was, therefore, on to collect data on current status of plants

and animals as baseline information for future comparisons.

Following methodology was adopted in order to collect scientific

data.

We attempted to create baseline information through 1) review of

literature, 2) consultation and 2) first hand data collection through

field surveys.

Field Surveys

In order to get the first hand information on the project and

surrounding ecological status, field surveys were conducted. The

field surveys were conducted to assess baseline status of flora and

fauna between October – November – December 2018.


133



Sampling Strategy

For assessment of flora and fauna, study team randomly sampled in

10.0 km radius of the project site. We collected the data on flora and

fauna in each sample plot of 10X10 mtr quadrate. Total 30

quadrates were laid in the study area in order to rapidly study the

fauna and flora of the region.

No national park / Wildlife Sanctuary / Reserve Forest cover was

found in 10 Km radius of the project area. A detailed survey report

with the methodology and study is as given in the following section.

The surrounding area particularly in the 10.0 Km periphery of the

project unit area is dominated with irrigated agriculture farms, roads,

canal, and villages etc. The details of some major landuses are

described below.

Occupational Pattern Occupational Pattern of any region mainly depends upon its economically active

group i.e. the working population involved in productive work. There are different types of

workers that may be classified as -

Employment Pattern

Economic resource base of any region mainly depends upon its economically

active group i.e. the working population involved in productive work. Work may be defined as

participation in any economically productive activity. Such participation may be physical or

mental in nature. Work not only involves actual work but also effective supervision and

direction of work. It also includes unpaid work on farm or in family enterprise.

There are different types of workers that may be classified as - those persons who

had worked for at least six months or 183 days are treated to be Main Workers, on the other

hand if person categorized as worker has participated in any economic or productive activity

for less than six months or 183 days during the last one year is treated as Marginal Worker.

Non–workers are those who have not worked any time at all in the year preceding the

enumeration.

The workers coming under the main and marginal workers category are those

involved in activities such as cultivation, agriculture, livestock, forestry, fishing, hunting,

plantations, orchards and allied activities, mining and quarrying, manufacturing, processing,

servicing and repairs in household industry, construction, trade and commerce, transport,

storage and communication and other services.

3.18 SOCIO - ECONOMIC SURVEY

Sampling Method A judgmental and purposive sampling method was used for choosing respondents

of various sections of the society i.e. Sarpanch, adult males and females, teachers, medical

practitioners, businesspersons, agriculture laborers, fishermen, unemployed group etc.

Judgmental and purposive sampling method includes the right cases from the total

population that helps to fulfill the purpose of research needs.

Data Collection Method Data collection is a term used to describe a process of preparing and

collecting data, for example, as part of a process improvement or similar project. The

purpose of data collection is to obtain information to keep on record, to make decisions

about important issues, to pass information on to others. Primarily, data are collected to

provide information regarding a specific topic. Data collection usually takes place early on in

an improvement project, and is often formalized through a data collection plan which often

contains the following activity.

• Pre collection activity — agree on goals, target data, definitions, methods

• Collection — data collection

• Present Findings — usually involves some form of sorting analysis and/or

presentation

Main types of data collection include census, sample survey, and administrative by-product

and each with their respective advantages and disadvantage.

Field Survey and Observations Field research involves the collection of primary data or information that is new.

This is collected through surveys and questionnaires that are made out specifically for a

purpose Observations can be conducted on nearly any subject matter and the kinds of

observations will do depend on survey question. Field Survey and Observations were made

at each sampling village and the quality of life of that region is studied.

Visits were made at hospitals, primary health centers and sub-centers to know the health

status of the region. Various governmental organizations such as statistical department,

department of census operations are visited to collect the population details of that region.

Interview Method Interview is verbal questioning. Surveys are also conducted through interviews. Interviews

consist of asking questions, listening to individuals and recording their responses. At times,

you may find it more profitable to ask questions to a few individuals instead of carrying out a

large-scale questionnaire based survey. The interview can be done very informally, e.g. as

conversations with people met in the fields, co-operative stores or block offices. In these

settings, one question leads to the next based on. The responses given to the previous

one. At the other end of the scale, highly structured interviews often rely on questionnaires

or interview schedules with mostly closed-ended questions that allow the respondents only a

limited range of possible answers. Structured interview method is used to collect data

regarding the awareness and opinion from the sample selected of the various socio-

economic sections of the community. The questionnaire mainly highlights the parameters of

primary needs.

The interview method has the advantage that almost all perfect sample of the

general population can be reached and respond to the approach. Interview method helps to

collect more correct and accurate information as the interviewer is present during the field

survey.

Socio-economic survey was conducted in 8 villages within the study area located

in all directions with reference to the project site.

The respondents were asked for their awareness/opinion about the project and

their opinion about the impacts of the project, which is an important aspect of socio-

economic environment, viz. job opportunities, education, health care, transportation facility

and economic status.Villages surveyed are given in Table 3.23

Awareness and Opinion Awareness is the state or ability to perceive, to feel, or to be conscious of

events, objects or sensory patterns. In this level of consciousness, sense data can

be confirmed by an observer without necessarily implying understanding. In general,

an opinion is a subjective belief, and is the result of emotion or interpretation of facts.

An opinion may be supported by an argument, although people may draw opposing

opinions from the same set of facts. For assessing the awareness and opinion about

the project activity socio-economic survey was conducted in the sampling villages.

The salient observations drawn through survey are described below:

• Some of the respondents are aware about the project activity.

• Some of the respondents have very good opinion about the project and they opined

that due to project activity, quality of life of the villages will improve.

• Respondent have suggested minimizing the environmental pollution during and after

project activity

• Village leaders suggested that employment opportunity should given to local

population

4.1 INTRODUCTION

Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is an activity or an attempt to identify, predict, evaluate and communicate the likely environmental impacts of the Proposed project as well as proposed project on the surrounding environment. The major element involved in the process of Environmental Impact Assessment is the Identification of impacts as it forms the basis for quantification and evaluation of impacts. In this section, the impacts on the environment, either beneficial or deleterious due to the proposed project have been identified. The aspects of the environment, which are likely to be disturbed or damaged due to the proposed project, are represented as parameters. Prediction of impacts is the most important component in the Environmental Impact Assessment studies for quantification and evaluation of impacts. Several scientific techniques and methodologies are available to predict impacts of developmental activities on physical, ecological and socio-economic environments. Such predictions are superimposed over the baseline (pre-project) status of environmental quality to derive the ultimate (post-project) scenario of environmental conditions. The prediction of impacts helps in minimizing the impacts on environmental quality during the post project execution. The identified impacts for various components of environment viz., air, noise, water, land, socio-economy, etc. are presented herewith. EIA is an activity or an attempt to identify, predict, evaluate and communicate the likely environmental impacts of the activity/project on the environment.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT STUDY INCLUDES:

• Identification of all the probable impacts (be it positive or negative) of the various

activities involved in the completion of the project. • Classification of the probable impacts i.e. positive or negative, reversible or

irreversible, short term or long term. • Evaluation of the probable impacts i.e. qualitative and quantitative assessment of

the likely impacts. • Communication to the general public, interested parties, controlling authorities

(Government or Municipality) through a Public Hearing process, revealing all the probable impacts, which are likely to occur due to the Proposed project, on the environment. It also includes the mitigation measures of those impacts, which are inevitable.


169



This chapter presents the identification, prediction and evaluation of impacts with mitigation measures of the proposed project of M/s. Shrey Industries effected in the baseline environmental status.

4.2 IMPACT IDENTIFICATION Considering that identification of significant environmental impact is essential in the preparation of EIA report, an attempt has been made here through the use of “Activity Effect” Matrix.

IDENTIFICATION MATRIX

The impact identification matrix is shown in the Table No. 4.1. For simplicity the entire project has been divided into two phases:

1. Construction Phase

2. Operation Phase

Various activities belonging to each phase have been grouped separately and arranged in Columns. The environmental Factor or Parameter, which are anticipated to be impacted, has been arranged in Rows. A preliminary scrutiny has been done and the cells, which fall at the junction of the ‘Activity’ and ‘Factor’, that have possible interaction with each other, have been ‘marked’. The matrix thus establishes the possible ‘cause-effect’ relationship and identifies the environmental factors likely to be impacted and activities responsible for the same. The impact identified may be positive and negative, short term and long term, reversible and irreversible, minor and major. This determination will be done at prediction stage.

A. Construction Phase Unit needs to do construction activity for installation of plant machineries. The various activities involved in construction phase of a proposed project are listed below:

• Construction / foundation. • Erection/Installations of equipment and machinery • Transportation • Material handling • Employment of labour • Green belt development


170



B. Operational Phase

The activities involved in the operation phase of the proposed project are listed below: • Raw material handling and Storage • Product Manufacturing • Utility Consumption • Product Handling & Storage • Effluent Generation • Gaseous Emissions • Hazardous Waste Generation • Employment • Green belt development

This section is devoted to the prediction and assessment of impacts, which are the most important components of EIA. Such predictions are superimposed over the base-line status of the environmental quality to derive the ultimate environmental scenario.

4.3 IMPACT PREDICTION AND ASSESSMENT WITH MITIGATIVE MEASURES: This section is devoted to the prediction and assessment of impacts, which are the most important components of EIA. Such predictions are superimposed over the base-line status of the environmental quality to derive the ultimate environmental scenario. Prediction involves determination of the nature and extent of the probable impacts due to the proposed Project. Here it is determined, whether the likely environmental impacts are: 1. Positive or Negative 2. Long term or Short term Prediction of impacts during the construction and operational phase is as Shown in Table No 4.2. Based on Environmental Impact Analysis, the Environmental Impacts under this step are quantitatively and qualitatively assessed. Quantitative assessment with the help of a mathematical model has been done wherever possible. In other cases, the impact assessment has been qualitative which is based on available scientific knowledge and judgment. The mathematical model used for prediction in the present study includes “Aermod view” model for ambient air quality. For other cases i.e. Water, Noise, Land/Soil, Ecology, Socioeconomic etc., the available scientific knowledge and judgments have been used.

4.4 AIR ENVIRONMENT

A. Impact during Construction Phase:-

The impacts during construction phase will be short-term impacts as they will be limited to the period of construction. These activities may result in temporary increase in SPM levels, primarily, in the working environment. Following mitigative measures during construction phase have been planned Main Impacts during construction period is dusting and Air Pollution from vehicles. There will be impact on Air Environment during construction phase and also during operation phase. The impact during construction phase will be short term and reversible. However impacts during operation phase will have long term impacts due to flue gas emission as well as process gas emission. But suitable air pollution control measures will be adopted to keep the quality of air emission below the prescribed norms so as to have minimal impact on air quality. The main sources of emission during the construction period are the movement of equipment at site and dust emitted during the leveling, grading, earthwork, foundation works and exhaust emissions from vehicles and equipment deployed during the construction phase is also likely to result in marginal increase in the levels of SO2, NOx, SPM and CO.

B. Mitigation measures during Construction Phase :-

The activities like site development, construction and vehicular traffic contribute to increase in SPM and NOx concentrations. The mitigation measures recommended to minimize the impacts are:

o Water sprinkling in construction area.

o Proper maintenance of vehicles and construction equipment.

o Tree plantation in the area earmarked for greenbelt development.


175



Hence, the impacts on ambient air quality during construction phase will be marginal temporarily and reversible in nature (for short duration) and restricted to small plant area only.

C. Impact during Operational Phase:-

The impacts on air quality from project depend on various factors like design capacity, configuration, process technology, raw material, fuel to be used, air pollution control measures, operation and maintenance. Apart from the above, other activities associated with transportation of fuel, raw materials and finished products, storage facilities and material handling within the plant premises may also contribute to air pollution. 1. Source of Air Pollution

The operational phase activities are expected to have long - term impacts on the air quality. The main sources from project are Flue gas emission, process gas emission, Fugitive emission etc. 2. Flue gas Emissions

Steam Boiler, thermic Fluid Boiler, Hot Air generator and DG set will be the main sources of emissions from the plant. Shrey Industries proposed to install Agro waste / Coal fired boiler of capacity 2 TPH ,Thermic Fluid of capacity 3lacs K cal, HAG of capacity 2.0 L K cal. 125 KVA DG Set will be kept as standby power during power failures. PM, SO2 and NOx are the main air pollutants generated from the boiler TFH, HAG, and DG set. The emissions from the boiler, HAG, TFH stacks and DG Set Stack are given in Table 4.6, 4.7 & 4.8. Generally, the operational activities are expected to have long-term negligible impacts on the air quality. The operational activity from proposed project is expected to have long term impact on the air quality. Generally, the operational activities are expected to have long-term impacts on the air quality. Based on the above stated facts, predictions related to the Ground Level Concentrations (GLCs) have taken into account the flue gas emissions from the proposed stack attached to Steam boiler thermic Fluid Heater, Hot Air generator and DG set. 3. Process/Fugitive Emissions

The most probable emitted pollutants from process are Cl2 & HCl. The emission from the process is mainly liberated gases from various reactions. The various gases emanating from reactions shall be scrubbed in two stage scrubber system to control the gaseous emission into the


176



atmosphere, by using the suitable scrubbing media. Apart from this all the reactors are connected with primary and secondary condensers to mitigate the solvent evaporation losses from process. Fugitive emission :

The main sources of fugitive emissions from project are handling of raw materials and Solvents. The solvents will be stored in drums in elevated flat from under the roof. Bulk quantities will be stored in drums to avoid the fugitive emissions. Solvents are handled in closed conditions thereby reducing the losses in the form of evaporation.

Data used for the evaluation of the Ground Level Concentration for the proposed project is given in the Table No. 4.4. All the suitable precautionary measures will be taken for the control of fugitive emissions.

4. Prediction of Impacts on Air Environment The concentration of pollutants at the ground level has been computed using computer model to assess the impact of source emissions from the proposed stacks which will be installed. Air quality impact assessment is an important study; Mathematical modeling is an established and accepted technique to predict the air quality.

In this study, impact on environment due to the proposed plant has been assessed with the help of Mathematical modeling following the Central Pollution Control Boards Guidelines. The mathematical model used for conducting the study is the latest version of AERMOD developed by the Lakes Environmental Software, which is entirely in line with the requirements of Central Pollution Control Board, New Delhi. A mathematical model developed by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is used for calculating GLCs. This is based, on the original Gaussian Plume Model equation but is defined in terms related to atmospheric phenomenon.. The average and maximum Ground Level Concentrations (GLCs) have been determined for SPM, SO2 , NOx., HCl, Cl2 . The average 24hrs. concentrations have been determined in polar grid of 100 up to 3600 for a distance of 100 m, 200m, 300m, 500m, 1000m, 2000 m, 3000 m, 4000m, 5000 m, 7000 m, 8000 m, 9000 m and 10000 m. has been calculated based on the micro-meteorological data collected from Envitrans specific to the project site. The objective of dispersion modelling is to predict the ground level concentration during the operation of plant and its impact on ambient air quality of the area. Air quality assessment is done by integrating the measurement techniques and modelling tools. The air modelling tools are routinely used in the environmental impact assessments, risk analysis, emergency planning, and source apportionment studies. Recent strategies for air pollution control in industries have largely neglected the emission reduction measures which are the prime polluting sources. To accomplish this, various air dispersion models have been developed and used worldwide so far for different applications under different scenarios. The Gaussian plume model is a standard approach for studying the transport of pollutants due to turbulent diffusion and advection by the wind. Applications of such models have been made mandatory. In this study, the AERMOD (the American Meteorological Society/Environmental Protection Agency Regulatory Model Improvement Committee’s Dispersion Model, Gaussian dispersion model is selected to predict the ground level concentrations (GLC’s) of Particulate Matter (PM) µg/m3, sulphur dioxide (SO2) µg/m3 , oxides of nitrogen (NOx)- µg/m3 , Cl2 and HCl from point source emissions will be investigated in the study area.

Prediction of GLC values are made by using AERMOD software approved

by U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and has adopted it as

its regulatory model since 2005. In point source emissions, the stacks are

subjected to plume rise which again is dependent on force of buoyancy

and momentum. The higher is the plume rise or stack, the lesser will be

ground level concentrations (GLC’s).The emissions when released into

the atmosphere are subjected to transportation, dispersion,

transformation, and fall out and wash out and finally reach the ground

level at a particular distance and concentrations. The relationship between

the source of emissions and its magnitude with the ground level

concentrations (GLC’s) at receptor points is governed by air dispersion

models which take into the account by the source strength, plume rise,

atmospheric stability, mixing height, wind velocity, terrain and other

meteorological conditions. The comparison between the predicted and

field sampled downwind concentrations for PM, SO2 & NOX (µg/m3) ,

HCl, Cl2 will be carried out in this study to predict the average

downwind ground level concentrations (GLC’s)

Data Used for Computation

Stack emissions data have been used for prediction of short-term incremental GLC values of PM, SO2 , NOx HCl & Cl2 using the meteorological data collected during the October – November – December 2018. Details of the data used for computations are given below.

Meteorological Data

The meteorological data recorded continuously during the month of October 2018 to December 2018, on hourly basis. AERMOD model requires hourly surface data values for wind speed, wind direction, temperature, relative humidity and cloud cover. Both data files for the surface and profile files were then used to generate the meteorological file required by the AERMOD dispersion model using the AERMET meteorological pre-processor. This AERMET has three stages to process the data. The first stage extracts meteorological data and assesses data quality through a series of quality assessment checks. The second stage merges all data available for 24-hour periods and writes these data


181



together in a single intermediate file. The third and final stage reads the merged meteorological data and estimates the necessary boundary layer parameters for dispersion calculations by AERMOD.

Dispersion Modeling Results

The 24 hourly average ground level concentration (GLC) values from plant

have been computed for PM, SO2 & NOx considering topographical

features around the plant and applicable stability classes. The maximum

24 hourly average GLC values for PM, SO2 , NOx, HCl, & Cl2 from plant

are given in Table 4.6 to 4.10. Corresponding isopleths plotted are shown

in Figure 4.1 to Figure 4.5 for SPM, SO2 NOx, HCl and Cl2.

5. Predicted 24-hourly short term incremental ground level

concentration

The results of the GLCs are given in the Table No. 4.4 When the above stated GLCs results are added in to the average ambient air parameters it gives overall AAQ of the surrounding study area. Air quality contours are shown in the Figure No. 4.1 to 4.5

With this marginal contribution due to the proposal of the project, the levels of SPM, SO2 ,NOx, HCl & Cl2 will remain below the 24 –hourly ambient air quality standards for SO2 & NOx (80 μg/m3) and PM10 (100μg/m3) prescribed by CPCB. The operation of plant is not likely to cause any significant impact on the ambient air quality of the study area.

The Dispersion modeling assumptions are considered as follows:

1. The receptor locations for 36 wind directions starting with 10 degrees

and incrementing with 10 degrees for radial distances viz. 100m, 200m, 300m, 500m, 1000m, 2000m, 3000m, 5000m,6000m, 8000m, 9000m and 10000m has been taken for the Air Quality Modelling.

2. The impacts of the pollutants were identified up to 10000 meters. 3. The terrain of the study area was considered as FLAT. 4. Stability Class was evaluated based on Temperature Profile and Cloud

Cover. 5. The mathematical equations used for the dispersion modelling

assumes that the earth surface acts as a perfect reflector of plume and physic-chemical process, such as dry and wet deposition, and chemical transformation of pollutants are negligible.

6. The micro-meteorological data viz. Temperature, Wind Speed, Wind Direction and Cloud Cover has been collected from Envitrans for project specific met station.

7. Assessment of Impact on Air Quality

Base line study reveals that the levels of various pollutants like PM, SO2 , NOx, HCl, Cl2 etc., in the ambient air of surrounding study area are well within the limits stipulated by National Ambient Air Quality (NAAQ) Standard for Residential, Rural and other areas. It can be seen from Table No. 4.4 that the maximum predicted 24 hours GLC(s) of all the pollutants i.e., PM, SO2 and NOx, HCl, Cl2 and its incremental concentrations on baseline value is below the NAAQS. Thus, it can be concluded that, with proposed emissions from the Plant, the Ambient Air Quality within the industrial premises as well as in the surrounding study area will not exceed the NAAQ standards and hence there is no significant adverse impact on Ambient Air Quality.

D. Mitigation Measures for Air Environment during Operational Phase

• The industry will take measures for reduction of fugitive emissions

emanating out of process reactions by providing vent condensers.

• Good ventilation will be provided to reduce the workroom concentrations.

• Fugitive emissions will be reduced by providing vent condensers to the

all the reactors.

• Adequate stack height of 30 Mtrs will be provided to the 2 TPH boiler and 30 m to the Thermic Fluid heater and 20 m to Hot Air generator.

• Stack monitoring facilities for the periodic monitoring of the stack to

verify the compliance of the stipulated norms. Apart from this Cyclone

Separator, Bag filters will be provided as an APC system to the boiler

and Hot Air generator. Wet scrubber will be provided with TFH.

• In order to minimize the air pollution, unit will develop greenbelt in and

around its premises.

• For process gas emission of HCl and Cl2, unit will provide two stage

scrubber system.

1. Impact During Construction Phase

Impact on water quality during construction phase / foundation work will be marginal and confined to use of water by workers only. The sewage generated will be disposed to Soak Pit and septic tank system & they will take all reasonable precautions for wastewater seepage. This will prevent soil contamination. The water required for construction will be met by Water Tanker sources. The quality of both surface and groundwater may also deteriorate in regard to the labour camps likely to be developed during the construction phase if proper solid waste management practices are adopted. Improper treatment of sewage from labour camps leads to infiltration into soil and finally affects groundwater regime. This will create accumulation dirty water over which mosquitoes and other flies to flourish thereby affecting the health of workers. During the operation phase, irrational disposal of liquid wastes will be avoided. The formation of roads will affect the drainage system as such road laying is to be properly planned protecting the natural drainages by leaving sufficient buffer zone of 7.5 m on either side of natural stream courses. The baseline status of water quality in the core and buffer zone area has been established through sampling and analysis of various water quality parameters as part of the baseline environmental monitoring. Water samples collected from 11 locations in the core and the buffer zone of 10 km radius of the proposed project area during the study period. The prime objective of the baseline water quality study was to establish the existing water quality in the study area and to evaluate the anticipated impact of the proposed project on water quality and to suggest appropriate mitigation measures for implementation. This will also be useful for assessing the conformity to the standards of water quality during the construction and implementation/ operational phase of the project. The contamination of groundwater might occur due to the irrational disposal of liquid wastes.

2. Mitigation measures :

The domestic sewage generated during the construction activity will be

routed to septic tanks followed by soak pit.


208



C. Impact During Operation Phase

1. Total water consumption will be 84.6 KLPD. From which 1.0 KLPD will used

for Domestic purpose & 3.0 KLPD will be used for gardening purpose.

2. Domestic wastewater generation @ 0.8 will discharged to soak pit via septic

tank.

3. Industrial water consumption will be 80.6 KLPD.

4. Industrial wastewater generation will be 53.9 KLPD. It will be treated in

Effluent Treatment Plant having primary treatment units & primary treated

effluent will be send to in-house RO Plant. There should generate RO

Permeate water @ 35.6 KLD & RO Rejected water @ 18.3 KLD.

5. 27.0 KLD RO Permeate water will be reuse during drowning process in next

batch of product & 8.6 KLD RO Permeate water will be reuse in washing

activity & cooling tower.

6. RO Rejected water 18.3 KLPD will be discharged to M/s. Chhatral

Environment Management System Pvt. Ltd., Chhatral (Common Spray

Drying Facility) for evaporation.

• So, unit will achieve Zero Liquid Discharge.

Thus, it can be concluded that negligible impact on surrounding water environment is caused. Further, it is emphasized that all precautionary measures have to be strictly adhered as mentioned in the Environmental Management Plan given in Chapter 10, to maintain ground water quality within norms in the future.

1. Mitigation Measures for Water Environment during

Operational Phase :-

• Effluent generated in the plant will be treated in primary Effluent Treatment Plant. Treated effluent will be sent to Chhatral Environment Management System Pvt ltd. For Spray drying. So, unit will achieve be zero Liquid discharge.

• Domestic wastewater will be disposed to soak pit system via septic tank.

• Unit has proposed to recharge ground water through roof water

harvesting pits in the project area and rain water harvesting pits outside

plant area wherever possible to balance the water table.

• Minimization of water use providing drip system for gardening.

• Use of high-pressure hoses for cleaning the floor and process

equipment to reduce the amount of wastewater generated during

washings.

A. Impact of Solid / hazardous waste during Construction Phase:-

Improper disposal of debris, used oil, and diesel for DG sets will result in surface and groundwater contamination and in turn affects the drainage of the area. As such proper housekeeping programme needs to be formulated for proper disposal of solid and liquid wastes.

B. Impact of Solid / hazardous waste during Operation Phase:-

The details of hazardous waste to be generated from the proposed project, is mentioned at Chapter - 2. The proposed practice of storage of generated hazardous waste, in a closed room having an impervious bottom, and disposed of as per the prescribed guidelines will be continued for the generation of hazardous waste. Hence, the impact due to the same will be negligible as the handling of hazardous waste to be generated will be disposed as per guidelines. The details of solid/Hazardous waste details are shown in below Table 4.13.

B Measures for hazardous/solid waste during Operational phase :-

To reduce the quantity of solid / hazardous waste generation as well as

possible contamination of land (soil) due to spillages / leaks from the plant

operations, following Mitigation measures can be implemented:

• There will not be any leakages / spillage from the raw-materials storage

and from the storage of generated effluent from the project.

• The generated Hazardous waste will be stored on floor with suitable

packing and this dedicated area will be covered with the roof.

• The records on quantity of hazardous waste generation and disposal

will be maintained for each category and possibilities will be explored

for minimization and reuse.

• Classification of waste • Collection, Storage, Transportation, & disposed/sale to authorized

recycler or re-user.

• Data Management and Reporting

• Personnel Training to the workers and employees.

• The leakages of oil spills from machinery shall be collected in leak

proof barrels and then disposed off to SPCB authorized dealers.

4.7 NOISE ENVIRONMENT :-

A. Impact during Construction Phase

There will be slightly increase in noise level during construction phase due to erection and installation of machinery. But it is restricted to construction phase only and it will occur during day time, when construction activities will be in progress.


212



Construction equipment and vehicular traffic contribute to the

increased noise level.

B. Mitigation measures during Construction Phase :- Recommended mitigation measures are:

• Good maintenance of vehicles and construction equipment.

• Restriction of construction activities to day time only. • Plantation of trees around the plant boundary to attenuate the noise.

C. Impact during Operational Phase :-

As per observations, the Ambient Noise Level is within norms of Industrial Area. With the implementation of the mitigation measures proposed, the noise levels at plant boundaries will be well below the limits specified for industrial areas. The major sources contributing to Noise pollution during the plant operation will be Compressor, Boiler, Pumps, etc. The operation of the equipment will generate noise ranging between 70-80 dB (A). The occasional noise will be attenuated by the development of green belt in and around the industry, which will be taken up right from the construction phase. Also ear protecting devices will be provided for personnel working in high noise generating zone. The main sources of noise pollution in the plant are Boiler, Hot Air Generators, Reactors, DG Set, and other Noise generating units. Vehicular movements during operation phase for loading / unloading of raw materials and finished products and transporting activity may also increase noise level. Noise levels in the ambient air are well within the permissible limits given by the National Ambient Noise level standards as confirmed during baseline study. Leq values of the noise levels within the plant premises will be kept less than 75db [A] [during day time] and 70 db[B] [ during night time] which will be within the permissible limit. Thus, there is practically no impact on surrounding environment.

D. Mitigation Measures for Noise level during Operational Phase :

To minimize the noise pollution the unit proposes the following noise

control measures,

• Noise suppression measures such as enclosures, buffers and / or

protective measures will be provided, if required (wherever noise level


213



is more than 90 dB (A)).

• Employees will be provided with earplugs or earmuffs where exposure

is 85 dB (A) or more.

• Extensive oiling, lubrication and preventive maintenance will be carried

out for the machineries and equipments to reduce noise generation.

• Green Belt Development.

4.8 LAND /SOIL ENVIRONMENT :


In proposed unit needs to do Excavation for plant activity. Unit will do construction activity for proposed foundation work. Hence there will be minor impact on the surrounding soil environment and there will be change in Land Use Pattern only for foundation area. Present Land use of the site is open land. Proposed production activity will be done in premises of the unit.. Hence, there will be change of existing land use pattern only for the project site. The activities of proposed products will be confined within the plant site premises. During construction works, top soil generated from various activities like excavation etc. will be stored and preserved to use it during restoration period as far as possible. There will be no disposal of wastewater on land. Hazardous wastes will be stored at earmarked area with impervious flooring, shed and spillage/ leakage collection system to eliminate rainwater contamination, chances of overflow / spillages going on to the land and thus land/ soil contamination.

B. Mitigation measures during Construction Phase :-:

• The earthen material generated during excavations and site grading periods, will be properly dumped and slope stabilization shall be taken. The topsoil generated during construction shall be preserved and reused for plantations.

Hence, no significant negative impact is envisaged on the surrounding soil quality due to presence of solid / hazardous waste within the plant premises.


214



C. Impact during Operation Phase

Source emission, wastewater and hazardous waste generation from any project activity affects the soil environment. The impact due to air causes direct/indirect effect on soil. The emissions of SPM during operation will be effectively controlled. There will be practically no effect on the soil quality due to air emissions. Domestic effluent will be discharged to soak pit and septic tank system. Wastewater generated from the Industrial activity will be treated in Effluent Treatment Plant and finally it will be send to Chhatral Environment Management System Pvt Ltd and ETP waste will be disposed to TSDF site. As per the Hazardous Waste (Management & Handling) Amendment Rules, 2003, all necessary control steps for each type of Hazardous Wastes generated will be taken for the proposed project. Hence, due to the proposed project the, land use pattern; land cover and topography of the area will be changed only for the project premises.

IMPACT ON SOIL

One of the adverse impacts of a project may be enhanced soil

erosion, mainly on account of rain and flood. Soil erosion is due to

heavy rains and floods coupled with improper and unplanned land

use. Physico-chemical changes in soil quality may occur due to

spillage of various chemicals on land around storage area. The

impact will remain confined within the factory premises it will change

the quality of soil and impact will be of irreversible in nature.

D. Mitigation Measures during Operational Phase :

• Flue gases from Boiler stack , TFH stack , Hot Air generator will be

treated in cyclone separator, Bag filters and wet scrubber and discharged into the atmosphere through a stack of 30 m , 30 m and 20 m respectively. Outlet dust emission from Bag filters will be below 50

mg/Nm3.

• Effluent water generated from all streams of the proposed project will Prepared By M/s. Bhagwati Enviro Care Pvt Ltd.

215



be treated in Primary Treatment plant and finally treated effluent will be

send to Chhatral Environment management System Pvt Ltd. For Spray

drying.

• Ash generated from the project will be given to the nearby brick

manufacturers / cement plants.

• Solid / hazardous waste generated will be stored separately in Hazardous

Waste storage area within the factory premises and disposed as per

guidelines.

• The hazardous waste storage area has non-percolating RCC floor and

covered roof.

E. Mitigation Measures for Soil Conservation :

During operational phase, the chances of any enhanced soil erosion are

not anticipated. But improper disposal of toxic wastes and accidental

spillages of toxic chemicals can pose a serious threat to the soil, ground

and surface waters. But the chances of such events cannot be quantified

and predicted. Since the industry is expected all rules and regulations

relating to the use, handling and disposal of all toxic and hazardous

chemicals, no additional safety methods are required especially to prevent

contamination of soil. Liberal use of locally available farmyard manure will

be used for the plants in the greenbelt and block plantations for improving

the productivity, fertility and health of soils.

The project does not have any impact on the soils beyond the boundaries

of the project site since it is a zero liquid discharge unit by sending their

treated effluent at Chhatral Environment management System Pvt Ltd.

Physicochemical characteristics of the soil samples obtained from 7 areas

in the buffer zone and one from the project site reveals that all basically

sandy loams.


216



4.9 TOPOGRAPHY :-

It is a proposed project, does involve changes in topography and project

activities include excavation of soil in the plant area and construction of

buildings and facilities limited to the project site area. During construction,

excavated soil will be restored to its original shape. Thus the impact

during the construction is reversible, for short term and insignificant.

During the operation phase of the project, no impact is envisaged on the

topography.

There will be a change in topography of the land in the project site, but

there will be no change in drainage pattern.

217



4.11 ECOLOGY:


Any construction activity brings changes in some components of the local Terrestrial ecosystem. These adverse impacts are restricted to the project Construction site and to some extent it's immediate surroundings. The proposed project will not involve removal of any vegetation from the soil and loosening of the topsoil generally causes soil erosion as it is. However, such impacts will be confined to the plant site and will be minimized through paving and water sprinkling. However, 33% of greenbelt will be developed in the plant site. The existing trees will be preserved to the extent possible. Thus, there will no major adverse impacts are envisaged on ecological environment due to project activities.

B. Mitigation measures during construction phase :

During construction, small shrubs in the plant premises are required to be cleared. The measures required to be undertaken to minimize the impact on the ecology are:

• The felling of trees will be kept at minimum.

• Adequate Greenbelt will be developed.

C. Impact during Operation Phase :-

Impacts on terrestrial ecosystem can occur due to operation of the any industrial project mainly from air emissions, liquid effluents as well as hazardous wastes generation, which can interfere with the biotic and abiotic components of the ecosystem and may induce injurious effects when concentrations exceed permissible standards. The proposed project will be carried out on land within M/s. Shrey Industries without cutting of any trees. The proposed project does not alter the crop pattern and natural vegetation of the surrounding area. Due to the safe control technology of air pollutants, liquid effluents and hazardous wastes disposal, no impact on the surrounding ecology is anticipated. Development of additional greenbelt/green area will improve the ecological Environment of the surrounding areas.


218



Prediction of impacts is based both on the direct and indirect; short-term as well as long-term; irreversible and irreversible impacts that are most likely to occur owing to the industrial activity during establishment and operation. The ecological factors that are considered most significant as far as the impact on flora and fauna are concerned: 1. Whether there shall be any reduction in species diversity.

2. Whether there shall be any habitat loss or fragmentation. 3. Whether there shall be any risk or threat to the rare or endangered

or endemic or threatened (REET) species. 4. Whether there shall be any impairment of ecological functions

such as (i) disruption of food chains, (ii) decline in species

population and or (iii) alterations in predator-prey relationships.

Negative Impacts: As there is change in the land use and land cover on account of the proposed project, the proposed action is not going to have any direct and significant negative impacts of flora and fauna or biodiversity. Most probable Scenario: As stated earlier, it is a new project there will be change in the land use and land cover within the project site. No damage is going to be done to the existing green cover within the project site. Except for a few weeds, there are only cultivated plants and no RET species in the core area. No species is going to be lost on account of the proposed project. No direct or indirect damage is expected to the flora and fauna of the buffer zone. Further, as there are no rare or endangered or endemic or threatened (REET) species, the project does not pose any threat to the flora and fauna of the study area. As the industry is required to operate and maintain the emissions and effluents within the limits specified by the CPCB / SPCB, the effects of the industry on the flora and fauna of the buffer zone may be negligible. Neither the storm water nor the effluent water nor any other kind of rain or waste water from the industry shall get in to the drinking water resources. D. Mitigation Measures during Operational Phase :-

The measures required to be undertaken to minimize the impact on the ecology are:

• The felling of trees will be kept at minimum.

• Adequate Greenbelt will be developed.


219



4.12 SOCIO ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT:

Like any other project, the proposed project is also expected to have certain positive and negative impacts on socio-economic environment. A. Impact during Construction Phase

Local people involved as contract labours will have benefits of getting employment. Proposed project will generate temporary employment for personnel during operational phase. Impact on Socio-Economic Environment Due to proposed project there is no major negative impact on socio economic environment. The proposed Project will require workforce of 17 persons during plant operations. Thus industrial activity will boost up the commercial and economical status of the locality to some extent. And, the overall impacts on socio- economic environment due to the proposed project are positive in nature and accrue to the community on the long-terms basis. B. Impact during Operational Phase :-

The proposed project will generate direct employment. The indirect employment will be generated by way of transportation, shopkeepers and other casual employment. Implementation of this plant will also reduce production loss due to shortage of power. Thus, the Proposed project will have significant positive impacts on the employment pattern of the study area. During the erection phase short term direct or indirect employment will be generated. Project Proponent shall give first preference to the Local people wherever found suitable for all the jobs in the plant operations. Economic status of the local people will improve due to the increased employment & business opportunities, thereby, making a positive impact to the Local Economy. Educational, medical and housing facilities in the study area will considerably improve. Thus, the proposed project will have significant positive impact on the socio-economic environment.


220



C. Mitigation Measures for Socio-Economy :-

• Due to proposed project the employment generation will be around 17

persons including, skilled, semi-skilled & unskilled labour and office

staff. Local qualified personnel can be employed.

• Under CSR & CER Budget, the proponent has allotted 7.5 lacs & 6.0

lacs to take up welfare activities.

4.13 HEALTH & SAFETY :


Health problems are also likely to be experienced in the area as a result of Immigrant labour being careless about personal hygiene and also mosquito and fly-borne infections usually prevalent in the rural areas. Such Problems will be minimized by provision of adequate sanitary and health services.

B. Impact during Operational Phase :-

The impact on health and safety hazard is due to Fire, handling of raw material and products, . The company will provide sufficient fire fighting system. Therefore, no adverse impact is anticipated. C. Mitigation measures for Health & Safety :-

1. Provision of periodic medical checkup for all the employees is

necessary first aid facilities.

2. Protective equipments will be regularly checked and will be

kept easily accessible and easily workable during emergency.

3. Various types of fire extinguishers such as (Foam type, DCP,

water, CO2 type) will be providing inside the factory premises.

4. Provide sufficient fire fighting system

5. Health Problems will be minimized by provision of adequate

sanitary and health services


221



4.14 TRAFFIC STUDY & ITS IMPACT: Traffic study is important to calculate the existing and proposed load on the existing Road due to Proposed Project. There is only one main junction nearby the proposed project i.e. M/S. Shrey Industries. Traffic counts were collected at two Directions (1) From A to B – (Up) Ahmedabad – Mehsana and (2) From B to A – (Down) Mehsana – Ahmedabad on 12/12/2018.

The proposed unit is in an area of 3366 SQM., will have the infrastructure facilities

very near to the plant area. Land, water sources, material transportation, and power

etc are available without any difficulty and the site is also near to Ahmedabad –

Mehsana Highway. Since land for propsoed unit is adequate so, there is no need to

analyze any alternate site for expansion.

The supporting factors for site selection:

1. There is no protected area notified under the Wild Life (Protection) Act

(1972) & Eco-sensitive area notified under Section 3 of the Environment (Protection) Act- 1986 exists within 10 Km radius areas from the Plant Site.

2. The raw materials required for the production of all the proposed products is easily available in the vicinity of the project site, because of the proximity to the industrial chemical markets at Ahmedabad, Kalol, Chhatral, Ankleshwar, Panoli, Jhagadia and Dahej. This will reduce both the cost of raw material transportation and the associated risk.

3. Plant is only 1.0 km, in East direction away from Ahmedabad – Mehsana

Highway at Chhatral Junction, which is having good transportation facility

ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAMME

6.1 PREAMBLE Based on the findings of the Environmental Impact Assessment study, various mitigation measures have been proposed, which have been detailed out in Environmental Management Plan (EMP). In order to monitor the impacts and efficacy of these plans monitoring of various environmental attributes have been proposed during and after the completion of the management plans. A well defined environmental monitoring programme would be employed with trained and qualified staff of Environmental Management Cell of the proposed project to monitor the environmental attributes of the area with respect to EMP as well as the guidelines of the GPCB/CPCB. Environmental monitoring schedule proposed to be adopted by the project. The post project environmental monitoring program serves as the key tool to keep track on performance of mitigation measures implemented & pollution control technologies installed to prevent impacts associated with various operations of the project. Environmental monitoring is the repetitive and systematic measurement of the characteristics of environmental components to test specific hypotheses of the effects of human activity on the environment. Environmental monitoring will be undertaken primarily to determine the environmental effects of human activities, and secondarily to increase understanding of cause-effect relationships between human activity and environmental change. Thus, environmental monitoring is the effective observation of site conditions and work activities; and identification of potential non-compliance situations and initiation of corrective or remedial actions. Monitoring is as important as that of control of pollution, since the efficiency of control measures can only be determined by monitoring.

6.2 MONITORING OF ENVIRONMENT From the monitoring point of view, the important components are air, water, soil and noise. Unit will carry out regular monitoring by NABL/MOEF approved laboratory. Regular monitoring of all significant environmental parameters is essential to check the compliance status vis-à-vis the environmental laws and regulation. The objective of the monitoring will be as follows.


227



To verify the results of the impact assessment study with respect to the

proposed project.

To study the trend of concentration values of the parameters, which have

been, identified as critical and planning the mitigate measures.

To check and assess the efficacy of pollution control equipment.

To implement the EMP, a structured Environment Management Cell (EMC)

interwoven with the management system will be created.

EMC will undertake regular monitoring of the proposed pollution control system

and conduct yearly audit of the environmental performance of the system. It

will also check that the stipulated measures are being satisfactory

implemented and operated.

A comprehensive environmental monitoring program that will be prepared for the

purpose of implementation in the proposed manufacturing unit by the EMC is described

below Table 6.1.

243



METHODOLOGY: The following parameters are considered to prepare Risk Assessment.

1. Design data, built in safety systems were studied. Discussions were held with

officials on individual safety systems.

2. Hazard Identification exercise was conducted taking into consideration the

materials, operating parameters and proposed safety measures.

3. Containment failure scenarios related to flammable chemicals and Corrosive

Chemicals/Toxic chemicals Storage /handling and reactions involved in

proposed products manufacturing have been considered for Risk Assessment

and consequences in detail. Thus, this study is mainly oriented towards acute

risks rather than chronic risks.

4. Discussed on proposed Raw materials Hazards and their Risks in handling.

7.3 IDENTIFICATION OF HAZARDS

• Hazard identification is carried out to ascertain the controls required and

available in order to mitigate the risk of exposure to the hazards. This would

substantially help in overcoming costly errors and prolonged delays that may

be caused due to the design changes that may be required on a later date.

• Hazard assessment is carried out at the equipment design stage and the

control / mitigation measures will be put in place to overcome them to avoid

costly errors at a later stage.

• Hazard assessment in the plant is carried out examining the, Liquid and solid

chemicals storage in the ware house, production operations, Storage of

Flammable liquid chemicals in Mono Chloro Benzene , Corrosive/toxic

chemicals such as Dilute HCl (generated from scrubber), gases such as

Chlorine, locations to find out the adequate facilities in place to overcome the

Risks of exposure to the Hazards.

• After a critical analysis of the chemicals used, stored, defined safe operating

procedures and the different manufacturing processes, the following table lists

the safety measures / installations in place and mitigation measures to

overcome the hazards.


244



Following are the Hazards identified in proposed plant activities:

Solvents Hazards:

• Fire & Explosion: Heat produces vapors and can cause violent rupture of

containers. Vapors may travel long distances and can flash back.

• Can undergo auto-oxidation in air & generate heat which can build up in a

confined space to cause spontaneous combustion which in turn release of

hazardous decomposition products Carbon dioxide, carbon mono oxide.

• Inhalation can cause dizziness, headache and nausea, depresses central

nervous system and has anesthetic effects. Breathing of liquid droplets may

let to chemical pneumonia. In case of excessive inhalation of vapors move

the victim to fresh air, obtain medical assistance

• Fire Hazards due to Flammable chemicals leakage from drums, pipe line

ruptures during transfer of material which may get ignited due to any spark.

• Fire Hazard due to improper earthing of storage tanks and material transfer lines,

Spillage of Hazardous chemicals - Solvents, dilute HCl, which leads to Water

pollution, soil pollution and Air pollution due to increase in respective chemical

TLV Limits. Storage and Handling of Chlorine:-

Chlorine can be stored in different containers. The choice of the container used depends on the purpose that the gas will be used for. Chlorine is used in liquid form and as a compressed gas Liquid chlorine may be stored in a low-pressure vessel at low temperature or in a pressure storage vessel at ambient temperature. Pure dry (<20 ppm H2O) chlorine, both as a gas and as a liquid under pressure, reacts with only a few metals at ambient temperature. For this reason, chlorine may be safely stored in metal containers, usually steel. Moist chlorine corrodes most metals rapidly and therefore it is of utmost importance that all containers, pipes and equipment used to transport chlorine gas away from cylinders should be dry and clean.


245



RULES FOR CHLORINE CYLINDERS AND CONTAINERS

• Never expose cylinders to heat. • Never tamper with a *fusible plug • Always keep the valve protection cap in place, except when the cylinder is being

used • Never lift a cylinder by its valve protection cap • Never drop or knock over a cylinder • Cylinders must be kept upright at all times when moved or stored • Use a specially designed and manufactured clamp and lifting mechanism to lift

cylinders • Use a properly balanced hand trolley to move cylinders at floor level and ensure

that the cylinders are attached to the trolley by a clamp or chain • Hoist cylinders in a specially designed cage • Secure chlorine containers with chains, chocks or appropriate equipment

STORAGE AREA REQUIREMENTS

• Clearly identify chlorine storage areas and storage containers • Storage areas must be under cover and weather protected – dry and well-

ventilated area • Protect the containers from extreme temperature changes • Store containers off the ground on rails or pallets to prevent corrosion • Keep chlorine containers apart from other compressed gas containers or

hydrocarbons • Keep storage areas clean and practice good housekeeping principles • Store empty containers separately from full containers • Store full and empty containers in single rows with at least one meter gangways

between rows of cylinders for access (full 50-70 kg cylinders are normally stored upright, 1 ton containers are stored horizontally)

• Check if the valves of all empty containers are properly closed and if protective devices are in place prior to storage

• Store containers away from heavily travelled areas and emergency exits • Visually inspect storage areas on a routine basis, at least weekly • Storage sites for chlorine should be secure against unauthorized access • Display appropriate warning signs and placarding prominently in the area where

the gas is stored • Storage areas should not be in close proximity to emergency exits

It is recommended that quantities of hazardous chemicals (including chlorine) stored on site be kept to a minimum and that the storage capacity is in line with the usage requirements and the shelf life of the chemical.


246



Containers used for the storage of chlorine should be treated as full unless the container has been rendered free from the hazardous content. Care should be taken to ensure that all containers stored are labeled according to South African legal requirements to allow unmistakable identification of the container’s content. All labels should comply with the relevant regulations.

SAFE HANDLING OF CHLORINE

The safe handling of chlorine includes a proper facilities design, an operation and maintenance programme, the appropriate safety equipment, and an emergency action plan. Chlorine equipment and handling systems should always be designed by engineers familiar with the properties of chlorine. Periodic inspection of such equipment should also be conducted by knowledgeable persons in order to ensure that the equipment is kept in a suitable operating condition. Statutory inspections will be required for certain applications. Chlorine Handling Safety Requirements: To ensure that no serious risk is posed to people and the environment the following guidelines must be adhered to during the handling of chlorine: • Proper instruction, training and supervision should be provided to the workers

charged with the responsibility of the chlorine equipment • Provide appropriate personal safety equipment to workers handling chlorine or its

associated equipment • Install safety showers and eye wash stations near the chlorine equipment • If a leak occurs, allow two people to make the repairs – Buddy System • Keep all self-contained breathing apparatus that will be used for emergencies

outside the chlorine storage area • Workers handling and operating chlorine containers should receive special training

in standard safety procedures for handling compressed corrosive gases • All pipes and containment used for chlorine services should regularly be inspected

and tested. • The small amounts of impurities formed in industrial chlorine can deposit in flow

meters and control valves – maintenance is therefore required on a regular basis

Chlorine Safety Equipment: In order to protect workers against chlorine exposure and to protect the environment from pollution and contamination, suitable safety equipment should be available on all sites that manufacture, store or use chlorine. Safety equipment should include: • Firefighting equipment • Personal protective equipment


247



• Chlorine leak detection equipment and repair kits • Emergency equipment – e.g. eye wash facilities

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): PPE is not usually required if there is a closed chlorine handling system. If engineering controls and work practices are not effective in controlling exposure to chlorine, then wear suitable personal protective equipment including approved respiratory protection. Appropriate personal protective equipment must be available for use in the case of emergencies such as spills or fire. Workers should use appropriate personal protective clothing and equipment that should be carefully selected, used, and maintained to be effective in preventing skin contact with chlorine. The selection of the appropriate PPE should be based on the extent of the worker’s potential exposure to chlorine as determined via a risk assessment. PPE could include: • Gloves • Overalls • Aprons • Sleeves • Encapsulating suits • Splash-proof chemical safety goggles or face shields • Safety boots

The resistance of the materials to permeation by both chlorine liquid and chlorine gas should be considered when selecting the PPE. To evaluate the use of the PPE materials with chlorine, the best available performance data and manufacturer’s recommendations should be considered. Chemical resistant clothing that is used should be periodically evaluated to determine its effectiveness in preventing dermal contact. It is important that employers provide lockers or other closed areas to store work and personal clothing separately. Protective clothing should be kept free of oil and grease and should be inspected and maintained regularly to preserve its effectiveness. Protective Breathing Equipment: As the consequences of the inhalation of chlorine are immediate and could be extremely serious, particular attention should be given to protective breathing apparatus for personnel. Suitable respiratory protective equipment should be available for handling emergencies and should be located outside the probable location of any likely chlorine leak as well as carried on all vehicles, transporting the material. If respiratory protection is required, institute a complete respiratory protection program including:


248



• selection • fit testing • training • maintenance and • inspection.

Gas masks should be located at readily accessible points away from the area likely to be contaminated. Prevailing wind direction should be accounted for when locating PPE so that is usually upwind of the likely leak area. All persons should be periodically instructed in the use and care of gas masks. It should be emphasized to all concerned that a faulty gas mask is worse than no mask. Depending on the risk, protective breathing equipment should be used: • before appropriate engineering controls have been instituted • during work operations such as maintenance or repair activities that involves

unknown exposures • during operations that require entry into tanks or closed vessels • during emergencies

It is recommended that the following respiratory protection guidelines that consider chlorine concentrations in air be considered for selecting protective breathing equipment:

Chlorine concentration lower than 10 ppm (parts per million):

- use a chemical cartridge respirator with appropriate cartridge that can protect against chlorine

Chlorine concentration higher than 10 ppm (parts per million):

For chlorine concentrations higher than 10 ppm, the following options should be considered:

- supplied air respirator operated in a continuous flow mode - powered air-purifying respirator with cartridge(s) to protect against chlorine - full-face piece chemical cartridge respirator with cartridge(s) to protect

against chlorine - gas mask with canister to protect against chlorine - full-face piece self-contained breathing apparatus - full-face piece supplied air respirator.

Emergency situations or planned entry in unknown chlorine concentrations:

For unknown chlorine concentrations the following options should be considered:

- Positive pressure, full-face piece self-contained breathing apparatus - positive pressure, full-face piece supplied air respirator with an auxiliary

positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus.


249



Escape situations:

For escape situations, a gas mask with canister to protect against chlorine, or an escape-type self-contained breathing apparatus is recommended. Note: The Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health (IDLH) concentration of chlorine is 10 ppm. Chlorine Leak Detection Equipment and Repair Kits:

It is recommended that chlorine leak detection and monitoring systems (with sound and visual warnings) be installed to warn personnel about a possible chlorine leakage in production, storage or loading/unloading areas in order to enable them to take appropriate action. Alarms should be loud enough for all personnel working in noisy areas to hear. A monitoring system can also be used for the automatic closing of valves to isolate chlorine-containing equipment in the case of a release or leak. This unit should be calibrated and tested at regular intervals and documented. Most leaks will occur in piping, valves, connections, and the pressurized portions of chlorine equipment. These leaks will usually be eliminated by tightening packing, replacing gaskets, or repairing the equipment. Replace flexible connections annually or sooner if there is evidence of deterioration. EMERGENCY PROCEDURES Through its odour and irritant effects chlorine can easily be detected. It is treated as a chemical with good warning properties when emergencies arise. The measures in the event of chorine emergencies or accidents should be carefully prepared and should be regularly tested and updated. All workers should be familiar with emergency procedures, the location and proper use of emergency equipment and the various methods of protecting themselves during rescue operations.

It is important that a list of all relevant emergency contact phone numbers be available at a number of locations in the plant or office. The list should include the

• Local fire department • Police department • Local Department of Health

Local police and fire departments should be informed of the possible hazards associated with chlorine stored or handled on a facility so that they can be prepared in the case of an emergency.

Emergency Action Plans: It is important to ensure that fire fighting, first aid and Haz Mat personnel are trained in chlorine emergency procedures. A written emergency control plan should be developed


250



and unscheduled drills of emergency situations where the plan is executed should be conducted at least annually. The plan should include: • Escape/evacuation plans from areas where chlorine leaks could occur • Allocation of responsibilities during emergency incidents • An alarm plan for events without off-site consequences • An alert plan for incidents with potential off-site consequences outside of the plants

limits. This plan has to be developed in co-operation with the local authorities, fire and other emergency services

Procedures in the Case of the Inhalation of Chlorine: The accidental inhalation of chlorine should be prevented at all times. If the gas is inhaled, the victim should immediately be removed to fresh air and should be given immediate medical attention. The inhalation of chlorine in the workplace can be prevented by:

• Wearing the appropriate PPE • Ensuring that hazard and warning information is posted in the work area.

Should there be a release of chlorine gas, inhalation can be prevented by immediately leaving the area where the gas was released. If outdoors, employees should move upwind from the smell and the highest ground should be found as the gas is heavier than air and will sink to lower levels. If indoors, the building should be evacuated immediately. Care should be taken during evacuation in multiple story buildings as chlorine gas could accumulate in lower levels.

Procedures in the Case of Eye or Skin Contact: Eye and skin contact with chlorine should be prevented at all times. If liquid chlorine or high concentrations of chlorine gas get on the skin, the contaminated skin must immediately be flushed with water. If liquid chlorine or high concentrations of chlorine gas penetrate through clothing, the clothing must be removed and the skin must immediately be flushed with water and thereafter washed with soap and water. No attempt should be made to neutralize the chlorine with other chemicals, nor should any ointments be applied for 24 hours. In the case of eye contact, it is recommended that the eyelids be parted and that the eye be washed with copious amounts of water for 15 minutes. Immediate medical attention should be sought. Chlorine Leaks and Spills: When a chlorine leak occurs, authorized, trained personnel equipped with respiratory and appropriate other PPE should investigate and take the necessary action. Persons not wearing protective equipment and fully-encapsulating, vapour-protective clothing should be restricted from the contaminated areas until clean-up has been completed. Other personnel should be kept away and the hazardous areas should be isolated. People potentially affected by a chlorine release should be evacuated or sheltered in


251



places as circumstances warrant and should be moved to a point upwind of the release. Higher elevations are preferred due to chlorine being heavier than air. When sheltering inside a building is preferred, close all windows, doors and openings and turn off any air conditioners or air intake systems. People should move to the side of the building furthest from the release. If a fire is present or imminent, chlorine containers and equipment should be moved to a safe location if possible. Non-leaking containers or equipment that cannot be moved should be kept cool by the application of water. This should continue until well after the fire has been extinguished and the containers are cooled. Water should not be used directly on a chlorine leak as chlorine and water reacts and forms strong acids that could have negative environmental effects. Where vapours are reduced with a water spray, all run-off water contaminated with chlorine should be handled as potential hazardous waste. If a leak occurs in equipment of piping, the supply should be discontinued and the material under pressure at the leak should be disposed of. Chlorine container leaks:

In the case of a container leak (other than a valve leak), the following steps should be considered:

1. Notify safety personnel. 2. Remove all sources of heat or ignition. 3. Keep all combustibles (wood, paper, oil, etc.) away from the leak. 4. Ventilate potential explosive atmospheres. 5. Evacuate the spill area for at least 20 meters. 6. Find and stop the leak if this can be done without risk – if not, move the leaking

container to an isolated area until the gas has dispersed. 7. If possible, turn the container so that the gas instead of the liquid escapes (the

volume of gas that will escape is 1/15 the volume that escapes from a liquid leak). 8. If available, apply an appropriate emergency kit device. 9. If possible, reduce the pressure in the container by removing the gas to a suitable

disposal system (e.g. absorb in an alkaline solution). The tank and other equipment provided for an absorption system must be fabricated of materials suitable for the chemicals involved. Provision must be made for dissolving the chlorine in the alkaline solution in such a way that the solution cannot be sucked back into the container.

NOTE: use water spray to reduce vapours but do not put water directly on the leak or spill area.


252

• In case liquid chemicals spills on to the ground use dry absorbent

clay/vermiculate and neutralize with sodium carbonate

7.6. EFFECT AND CONSEQUENCE ANALYSIS

In a plant handling hazardous chemicals, the main hard due to storage, handling

of solvents, Chlorine, HCl. If these chemicals are released into the atmosphere,

they may cause damage due to resulting fires or vapor clouds,

7.6.1 OPERATING PARAMETERS

• Potential vapor release for the material depends significantly on the operating

conditions especially for any liquefied gas, operating conditions are very critical

to assess the damage potential.

7.6.2 INVENTORY

• Inventory analysis is commonly used in understanding the relative hazards

and short listing of release scenarios.

• Inventory plays an important role in regard to the potential hazard.

• Larger the inventory of a vessel or a system, larger the quantity of potential

release.

• The potential vapor release [source strength] depends upon the quantity of

liquid release, the properties of the materials and the operating conditions


267



[pressure, temperature].

• If all these influencing parameters are combined into a matrix and vapor

source strength estimated for each release case, a ranking should become a

credible exercise.

7.6.3 LOSS OF CONTAINMENT

• Plant inventory can get discharged to environment due to Loss of Containment.

• Certain features of materials to be handled at the plant need to the clearly

understood to firstly list out all significant release cases and then to short list

release scenarios for a detailed examination.

• Liquid release can be either instantaneous or continuous. • Failure of a vessel leading to an instantaneous outflow assumes the sudden

appearance of such a major crack that practically all of the contents above the

crack shall be released in a very short time.

• The more likely event is the case of liquid release from a hole in a pipe

connected the vessel. The flow rate will depend on the size of the hole as well

as on the pressure, which was present, in front of the hole, prior to the

accident. Such pressure is basically dependent on the pressure in the vessel.

• The vaporization of released liquid depends on the vapor pressure and weather

conditions.

In the study the largest potential hazard inventories have been considered for

its consequence Risk estimation how vulnerable the organization is to a specific

incident consequence.

7.7 General safety measures and specific safety measures

adopted for transportation, storage & handling (spillage and leakage) of hazardous chemicals are listed as follows.

7.10 ONSITE & OFFSITE DISASTER PREPARDNESS & EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLAN OF THE INDUSTRY

Risk leads to disasters & disasters have great impact on the prof itabi l ity, stabil ity & reputat ion of an industry. Disaster occurs when a hazard or a threat rises in vulnerable condit ion and the trend ref lects an increase in both. To uphold righteous image of an organization, Disaster Management is of prime importance. For tackling the major consequences inside the port and in the vicinity of port DMP has to be formulated and this planned emergency document is cal led ‘DISASTER MANAGEMENT PLAN’. Indian industry of late has begun to be aware of the necessity to apply more systematic approaches to safety part icularly in plant design. Primari ly, safety in the design of plant extends to the applicat ion of various codes of pract ice or design codes, which are based on the wide experience and knowledge of professional experts and specialists in the industry. Such applicat ion is backed by the experience of local plant managers and engineers who have been involved in similar plants and who have direct experience in their operation over a number of years. The main objective of evolving this emergency and disaster control plan is to create a procedure and infrastructure based on combined resources of the factory and the outside services with a view to minimize emergencies and disaster. This may arise as a result of usage, handling and storage of certain toxic, corrosive, inf lammable and explosive materials used in the manufacturing process and any other emergencies which may direct ly or indirect ly affect the employees, property and local community. Objectives are further classified as under:

• Rescue operation and treatment of persons affected by the emergency.

• Safeguard of other persons not affected by the emergency.

• Keep the damage to property and environment at a minimum level.

• Init ially contain the impact of incident and ult imately bring the incident under control.

• Provide authentic information to outsiders and media.

• Rehabil itat ion of affected person.

• Preservation of relevant records.

• Inquiry into the cause of emergency situat ions and then analysis to prevent recurrence.


279



PURPOSE OF PLAN:

• To save lives and injuries,

• To prevent or reduce property losses,

• For protect ion of environment,

• For protect ion of instal lation & restoration of production,

• To provide help for quick continuation of normal situat ion or operat ion.

More specif ically the elements that will form the backbone of the emergency preparedness organizat ion are: o Availabil ity organizat ion and ut i l ization of resources for facil ity

emergencies. o Accident evaluation procedures. o The command, coordination and responsible organization structure. o Notif icat ion and communication mechanism. o Training exercises and plans maintenance. Emergencies and disasters can happen at any moment - and, they usually occur without warning. When an emergency str ikes, immediate safety and prompt recovery are depends on the exist ing levels of preparedness among workers and management. Emergency incidents that may occur, including • Earthquakes • Fires or Explosions • Hazardous Materials Releases • Extended Power or Uti l i ty Outages • Floods • Mass Casualty Events As discussed in earl ier chapters, emergencies are classif ied as minor or major, according to their severity and potential impact. The Disaster management of any f irm mainly covers steps l ike PREPAREDNESS, RESPONSE and RECOVERY PREPAREDNESS is a f irst step to assemble appropriate human and physical resources before any emergency occurs, So the industry shall have a designated an “Emergency Coordinator” with the management experience and f inancial authority to deal with the Disaster plan.

injuries to concerned department for emergency help and measures. • Assist injured persons. • Isolate contaminated persons and area. • Avoid contamination or chemical exposure further. • Close doors or control access to spill site MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEETS As part of quality for Hazard Communication Standard, all company is required to have Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) available to al l employees working with hazardous chemicals. The concept is “that employees have both a need and a r ight to know the hazards and identit ies of the chemicals they are exposed to when working. They also need to know what protect ive measures are available to prevent adverse effects from occurring.” Information that can be found in a MSDS includes: • The ident ity of the chemical substance • Physical and chemical character ist ics • Physical and health hazards


282



• Primary routes of entry • Permissible Exposure Limits (PELs) • Carcinogenic status • Precaut ions for safe handl ing and use ( including personal protect ive

equipment) • Spi l l response • Emergency and f irst aid procedures • Date of the MSDS • Although not required, it is highly recommended for the company to

maintain a f i le of MSDS sheets for all of the chemicals used in lab/work area. A central f i le is maintained at the of f ice.

of operating areas, do it in an orderly manner. 7. Follow instructions of the Safety officer.


283



8. Understand the Disaster Management Plan well and take interest in practice mock drill.

An emergency in the premises has the potential to cause serious injury or loss of lives or extensive damage to the property and/or environment and serious disruption both inside and outside the plant. In such cases sometimes outside agencies are required to call for help in handling the situation. The causative factors like plant/equipment failure, human error, earth quake, sabotage etc. will normally manifest in various forms viz. Fire, Explosion, Toxic release, structure collapse etc. This OEP lays down the code of conduct of all personnel in the Plants and the procedures to be adopted by them in the event of an "Emergency". These procedures have been prepared taking into account the minimum strength of manpower available at all times in the premises. The individuals under the direction of the respective Team Leaders shall carry out the responsibilities assigned. The emergency procedures outlined are suitable for round the clock coverage including holidays. These emergency procedures shall be followed as outlined in the OEP during general shifts as well. OBJECTIVES: The overall objectives of OEP are:

• To control the situation and if possible eliminate as quickly as possible. • To avoid confusion/panic and to attend the emergency with clear-cut line of action. • To minimize the loss of property to the plant as well as to our neighbourhood. • To safe guard the non-affected areas. • To alert the neighbourhood. • To arrange head-count and rescue operations. • Treatment of the injured. • To safeguard others by timely evacuation. • To prevent any cascade of emergencies.

EMERGENCY: An emergency is the situation, which has potential to cause a large-scale damage or destruction to life or property or Environment or combination of these within or outside the factory. Therefore it is essential to have a laid down procedure to meet emergency systematically. In any industry, emergency can arise at any moment and this depends on the type of: • Structure • Raw materials • Machines • Nearby Industries • Location of the Industry etc.


284



NATURE OF EMERGENCY: The "Emergency" specified in this plan will refer to occurrence of one or more of the following natural/manmade events. • Earthquakes • Fires or Explosions • Hazardous Materials Releases • Extended Power or Uti l i ty Outages • Floods • Mass Casualty Events MEDICAL HELP: First Aid Boxes have been provided at various strategic locations.

288



OFFSITE EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS PLAN The task of preparing the Offsite Emergency Plan lies with the District Collector; however the offsite plan will be prepared with the help of the local district authorities. The proposed plan will be based on the following guidelines. Introduction

o Offsite emergency plan would follow the onsite emergency plan. When the consequences of an emergency situation go beyond the plant boundaries, it becomes an offsite emergency.

o Offsite emergency is essentially the responsibility of the public administration. However, the plant management will provide the public administration with the technical information relating to the nature, quantum and probable consequences on the neighbouring population.

o The offsite plan in detail will be based on those events, which are most likely to

occur, but other less likely events, which have severe consequence, will also be considered. Incidents which have very severe consequences yet have a small probability of occurrence would also be considered during the preparation of the plan.

o However, the key feature of a good offsite emergency plan is flexibility in its

application to emergencies other than those specifically included in the formation of the plan.

o The roles of the various parties who will be involved in the implementation of an

offsite plan are described below. Depending on local arrangements, the responsibility for the offsite plan would either rest with the plant management or with the local authority.

o Either way, the plan would identify an emergency coordinating officer, who would

take the overall command of the offsite activities. As with the onsite plan, an emergency control centre would be setup within which the emergency coordinating officer can operate.

o An early decision will be required in many cases on the advice to be given to

people living o "Within range" of the accident - in particular whether they should be evacuated or

told to go indoors. In the latter case, the decision can regularly be reviewed in the event of an escalation of the incident.

o Consideration of evacuation may include the following factors: In the case of a

major fire. Only houses close to the fire are likely to need evacuation, although a severe smoke hazard may require this to be reviewed periodically; and if a fire is escalating and in turn threatening a store of hazardous material, it might be necessary to evacuate people nearby, but only if there is time; if insufficient time exists, people should be advised to stay indoors and shield them from the fire.


289



o This later case particularly applies if the installation at risk could produce a fireball with very severe thermal radiation effects.

Aspects Proposed to be considered in the Offsite Emergency Plan The main aspects, which should be included in the emergency plan, are: Organization Detail of command structure, warning systems, and implementation procedures, emergency control centres. Names and appointments of incident controller, site main controller, their deputies and other key personnel. Communications Identification of personnel involved, communication centre, call signs, network, list of telephone numbers. Specialized Knowledge Details of specialist bodies, firms and people upon whom it may be necessary to call e.g. those with specialized fuel knowledge, laboratories. Voluntary Organizations Details of organizers, telephone numbers, resources etc Fuel Information Details of the hazardous substances stored and a summary of the risk associated with them. Meteorological Information Arrangements for obtaining details of weather forecasts and weather conditions prevailing at that time. Humanitarian Arrangements Transport, evacuation centres, emergency feeding, treatment of injured, first aid, ambulances and temporary mortuaries. Responsibility of the Emergency Co-ordinating Officer The various emergency services would be co-ordinated by an Emergency Coordinating Officer (ECO), who will be designated by the district collector. The ECO would liaison closely with the site main controller. Again depending on local arrangements, for very severe incidents with major or prolonged offsite consequences, the external control would


290



be passed to a senior local authority administrator or even an administrator appointed by the central or state government. The ECO will be equipped with address and phone numbers of important agencies. Responsibility of Police Formal duties of the police during an emergency include protecting life and property and Controlling traffic movements. Their functions should include controlling bystanders, evacuating the public, identifying the dead and dealing with casualties, and informing relatives of death or injury. Responsibility of the Local Authority

The duty to prepare the offsite plan lies with the local authorities. The emergency planning Officer (EPO) appointed should carry out his duty in preparing for a whole range of different emergencies within the local authority area. The EPO should liaison with the plant, to obtain the information to provide the basis for the plan. This liaison should ensure that the plan is continually kept up to date. It will be the responsibility of the EPO to ensure that all those organizations which will be involved offsite in handling the emergency, know of their role and are able to accept it by having for example, sufficient staff and appropriate equipment to cover their particular responsibilities. Rehearsals for offsite plans should be organized by the EPO. Responsibility of Fire Authorities The control of a fire should be normally the responsibility of the senior fire brigade officer who would take over the handling of the fire from the site incident controller on arrival at the site. The senior fire brigade officer should also have a similar responsibility for other events, such as explosions. Fire authorities in the region should be appraised about the location of all stores of flammable materials, water and foam supply points, and fire fighting equipment. They should be involved in onsite emergency rehearsals both as participants and, on occasion, as observers of exercises involving only site personnel. Responsibility of Health Authorities Health authorities, including doctors, surgeons, hospitals, ambulances and so on, should have a vital part to play following a major accident, and they should form an integral part of the emergency plan. For major fires, injuries should be the result of the effects of thermal radiation to a varying degree, and the knowledge and experience to handle this in all but extreme cases may be generally available in most hospitals. Major off site incidents are likely to require medical equipment and facilities additional to Those available locally, and a medical "mutual aid” scheme should exist to enable the Assistance of neighbouring authorities to be obtained in the event of an emergency. Responsibility of Government Safety Authority This will be the factory inspectorate available in the region. Inspectors are likely to satisfy themselves that the organization responsible for producing the offsite plan has made adequate arrangements for handling emergencies of all types including major


291



emergencies. They may wish to see well documented procedures and evidence of exercise undertaken to test the plan. In the event of an accident, local arrangements regarding the role of the factory inspector will apply. These may vary from keeping a watch, to a close involvement in advising on operations. 7.11 SOCIAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT

Operational phase of the proposed unit cover the entire l ife span of the project. The proposed project wil l generate direct employment for local persons. The indirect employment will also be generated by way of transportation, shopkeepers and other casual employment for many people. Local people wil l be given training and preference for almost all the jobs in the plant, direct as well as indirect. Economic status of the local people wil l be improved due to the increased business opportunit ies, thereby, making a posit ive impact. Educational, medical and housing faci l it ies in the study area wil l considerably improve. Thus, the proposed project wil l have long term-irreversible posit ive impact on the employment pattern of the study area.

in terms of employment, social development and other benefits as described hereunder;

8.1 EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY Due to Proposed project, 20 nos. of local peoples and outside peoples will get employment during the construction phase and 17 peoples will be employed during the operation phase. Local people will be given preference for almost all the jobs in the Plant, direct as well as indirect. Economic status of the local people will be improved due to the increased business opportunities, thereby, making a positive impact. Educational, medical and housing facilities in the study area will considerably improve. Therefore, social infrastructure of the study area will be improved. The company will also do following developmental activities in the area: The proposed Project does not involve any displacement of villages; however it will lead to development of the region and increase in infrastructure facility. During the operation phases of the project a work force will be needed which will include both skilled and unskilled people. Due to the proposed project direct employment for local employees will be generated. Existing ancillary as well as auxiliary industries would be benefited by way of getting additional work. In addition to direct employment, indirect employment will generate ancillary business to some extent for the local population.

For the proposed unit, persons will be employed for skilled, semi-skilled and unskilled

category. The preference will be given to local population for employment in the semi-

skilled and unskilled category; this will increase the employment opportunity in the

surrounding area. The ideology of the company is to give employment opportunity to

nearby villagers and this is the most positive aspect of company regarding

enhancement of the society. Secondary jobs and indirect employment are also bound to

be generated to provide day-to-day needs and services to the work force and industrial

Ankhol, Achrasan, karannagar, Lunasan, Vansol, Dhanot, Chhatral, Bileshwarpura,

Indrad, Irana villages in 5 years period.

2. Industry will maintain the RO Plants for supply of drinking water on regular basis.

The fund allocated for Enterprise Social Commitment will be utilized within five years

providing potable water facilities.

8.3 DIRECT REVENUE EARNING TO THE NATIONAL AND

STATE EXCHEQUER This project will contribute additional revenue to the Central & State exchequer in the

form of Central GST & State GST. Thus, the project will help the Government by paying

taxes from time to time, which is a part of revenue and thus, will help in developing the

area. Demand of the proposed products in foreign market is also significant, which will

boost the export potential of the company as well as country. Export oriented units plays

vital role in development of economy as well as local physical infrastructure for further

boosting of industrial development with sustainable approach as the industries need to

maintain good environment & safety condition to get better foreign market.

8.4 INFRASTRUCTURAL BENEFIT

The plant site is equipped with sufficient infrastructural facilities including drinking water,

power, easily accessible approach roads, public transport, communication, etc. Hence

no major benefit to the public infrastructure is anticipated due to the proposed project.

However, benefits due to CSR activities may be realized if any CSR activities would be

related with such facilities.


296



8.5 OTHER TANGIBLE BENEFITS The proposed activities will have many employment & trade opportunities with the

inception of the construction activities. Thus, these considerable employment & trade

opportunities will eventually result in appreciable economic benefits to the local

people & businesses/contractors. With this proposed project, Shrey Industries. contributes to growth in manufacture sector. The country will also benefit from GST

revenues. Foreign exchange earnings from exports are envisaged to increase.

Beside economic benefits, the general social & cultural development of the area is

anticipated at least due to the CSR activities planned by the company. The long-term

implications of this change can be definitely considered as progressive.

CHAPTER 10

ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN

10.1 INTRODUCTION

Any industrial development is associated with certain positive impacts as well as some negative impacts on the environment. However, the negative or adverse impacts cannot possibly rule out scientific development. At the same time, adverse impacts cannot be neglected.

An Environmental Management Plan has been formulated for mitigation of the adverse impacts and is based on the present environmental conditions and the environmental impact appraisal. This plan helps in formulating, implementing and in monitoring the environmental parameters during and after commissioning of the project.

The Environmental Management Plan describes, in brief, the management's plan for proper and adequate implementation of treatment and control system for air and liquid pollutants and for maintaining the environment. It also includes development of green belts around the Plant, proper safety of the workers, noise control, fire protection systems and measures. This chapter provides mitigation and control measures to attenuate or eliminate environmental impacts, which are likely to be caused by the proposed project. An Environmental Management Plan (EMP) has been developed to mitigate the potential adverse impacts and to strengthen the beneficial environmental impacts as well as to create positive environmental footprints during the construction and operation phases. The institutional capacity of Shrey Industries as the owner & facility developer and the reporting requirement to fully implement the mitigation measures have also been described in this chapter. In addition to that during the operation phase, the company will have an additional responsibility to comply with the statutory requirements as per the guidelines of Central/ State Government.

10.2 The EMP

The Environmental Management Plan (EMP) consists of a set of mitigation, monitoring and institutional measures to be taken during the design, construction and operation (post construction) stages of the project. The plan also includes the actions needed for implementation of these measures. Overall objective of EMP:

• Prevention: Measures aimed at impeding the occurrence of negative

environmental impacts and/or preventing such an occurrence having harmful environmental impacts.


299



• Preservation: Preventing any future actions that might adversely affect an environmental resource or attribute.

• Minimization: Limiting or reducing the degree, extent, magnitude, or

duration of adverse impacts.

The major components of the Environmental Management Plan are:

• Mitigation of potentially adverse impacts. • Monitoring during project implementation and operation. • Implementation schedule and environmental cost estimates. • Integration of EMP with project planning, design, construction and operation. The EMP has been designed keeping in view the regulatory and other requirements to ensure the following:

• Minimum disturbance to the native flora and fauna. • Compliance with the air, water, soil and noise quality norms. • Conservation of water to the extent possible. • Encourage the socio-economic development.

10.3 OBJECTIVES OF EMP

The main objectives in formulating this environmental management plan are:

To treat all the pollutants viz., liquid and gaseous which contribute to the degradation of the environment, with appropriate technology.

To comply with all regulations stipulated by the Central / State Pollution Control Boards related to air emissions and liquid effluents discharges as per air and water pollution control laws

To handle hazardous wastes as per the Hazardous Waste (Management and Handling Rules, 1989 of the Environment (Protection) Act, 1986

To encourage support and conduct developmental work for the purpose of achieving environmental standards and to improve the methods of environmental management.

To promote further afforestation in the surrounding areas of the Plant To create good working conditions (devoid of air and noise pollution) for

employees To reduce fire and accident hazards. Perspective budgeting and allocation of funds for environment management

expenditure. Dissemination of technological solutions on Commercial basis to interested

parties and Continuous Development and search for innovative technologies for a cleaner and better environment.

10.4 PRE- PROJECT ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN

• Construction related impacts:

The industry is an established small scale Synthetic Organic Chemicals

(Pigment Green 7) manufacturing unit. The potential for environment pollution

during the construction is obviously considerably less than when the plant

is in operation. The following factors require control during the construction

phase.

• Site Preparation

The leveling operation will involve stockpiling of backfill materials. All the

disturbed slopes shall be stabilized with grass cover and dust nuisance

controlled.

• Sanitation

The site will be provided with sufficient and suitable toilet facilities with

proper hygiene for construction workers. Adequate potable water supply

will be provided for onsite workers.

• Noise

The total noise effect in the vicinity during construction stage will be

negligible in the site and the site is far away from the nearest human

habitation.

• Construction Equipment and Waste

It will be ensured that construction related vehicles are properly maintained

to minimize exhaust emissions. Combustible waste will be burnt in a

controlled manner. Other wastes will be disposed off in to a dedicated

dump. Spent liquid waste if any, arising from chemical treatment of built-up

portions for termites etc, will be correctly neutralized and disposed off.


303



• Site Security

The site will be secured by fencing and manned at entry points.

Adequate and effective environment protection measures will be planned and designed to minimize the impacts due to activities related to preconstruction (preparatory phase) of the project, machinery installation and commissioning stages and end with the induction of manpower and start up. The impacts during the construction phase on the environment will basically be very insignificant as the project construction area is very small. Only foundation for RCC structure will be made. Ready mix Concrete will be used and therefore no possibility of fugitive emission due to material handling. In view of the above, the following measures are recommended to reduce the impact during this period:

• Due provision of necessary infrastructural services like water and power supply

etc., for the construction area.

• All possible care will be taken to reduce the noise level due to construction activity. As planned, no such noise generating machineries will be used. Also, noise prone activities shall be restricted to the extent possible during night particularly during the period 10 PM to 6 AM in order to have minimum environmental impact.



Construction Phase: Erection of Plant Machineries

• Air • Noise • Socio

Economic

• Well maintained vehicles will be used.

• Metalled Road for Vehicle Movement

• Well maintained equipment will be utilized to prevent noise generation.

•

10.5.4 SOLVENT MANAGEMENT PLAN

Solvent management consists of the following:

Unloading Storage Handling / transferring Process / Reaction


309



Recovery

i) Unloading Solvents are received in drums / tankers

Drums • Before unloading the drums from the truck, check the drums condition.

• Drums may be MS or HDPE Carboys

• Drums / barrels will be unloaded from the vehicles onto the unloading

platform by using the drum lifter provided for the purpose. Under no circumstances drums shall be dropped or rolled on the ground or on any other material

• Carboys will not be dropped or allowed to strike against each other and shall be unloaded on the pallets

• Personal protective equipments like safety goggles, hand gloves, PVC aprons and safety shoes will be used while handling chemicals.

• Road tankers (If in future they will install tank)

• Security will ensure that vehicle personnel shall not carry any match box / lighters

• The store personnel, has to check the paper work before unloading to confirm that the correct chemical received as well as discharged into the dedicated tank.

• Barriers and flags should be positioned to warn personnel at the unloading.

• Brakes should be set and the wheels chocked. • The truck should be earthed. • Tanker should be kept under inert gas flushing through vent while

unloading • Make sure that the inert gas valve remains open during the entire

unloading period of delivery is by gravity or by pumping. • Connect the flexible hose to the tanker and to the transfer pump • Check liquid level gauge on storage tank to ensure liquid is being

transferred • When tanker is empty, stop pump and close valves on tanker, close

valves in transfer line. • [For flammable material, stop inert gas purge] • Disconnect flexible hose and put into proper catch container to ensure

no product is lost on to the ground. • Remove choked warning signs, earthing and switch locks • Read storage tank liquid level gauge and record reading


310



ii) Storage/ handling/ transferring :- Storage Tanks (If in future they will install tank)

• 2 or 3 Square meter condenser [depends on solvent volatility] with cooling water circulation is connected to each solvent storage tank to prevent solvent vapors escaping from tank surface in to atmosphere. The condensed solvent will go to respective tank. This results in recovery of solvent and prevention of VOCs into the atmosphere.

• The solvent pump which is having mechanical seal will be used for transferring the solvent to the Day Tank of the respective reactor as and when required. The entire solvent transfer takes place in a closed system. There is no manual handling.

The above management will results in recovery of solvent more than or

equal to 95%.

Drums

• As and when required the solvent drums in closed condition will be

transferred to the respective reactor. • By using AODD pump the solvent will be transferred in to the reactor.

Hence, there is no loss of solvent during transfer.

iii) Reaction /Recovery

• During reaction stage the solvent vapors will be sent to a primary condenser having cooling water circulation and later to secondary condenser having temperature < 50 0C chilled brine circulation.

• Above system will eliminate solvent losses during reaction stage and recovery will be the maximum extent possible.

The above management will results in recovery of solvent more than or

equal to 95%.

System will eliminate solvent losses during reaction and recovery will

be the maximum extent possible. The above management will results

in recovery of solvent more than or equal to 95%.

10.5.5 NOISE POLLUTION

All the equipment in the plant would be designed to have a total noise

level not exceeding 70-75 dB (A) as per the requirement of CPCB

standards.


311



NOISE ENVIRONMENT Thermic Fluid Heater, Boiler, Hot Air generator and DG set will be the major noise generating units in the plant, of which generator will be functioning only at the time of power failure. There is no need for the workers to be near the DG set & Utility units continuously. The Generator sets will be placed in acoustic enclosures to maintain the noise levels as permitted by CPCB.

NOISE POLLUTION CONTROL / MANAGEMENT

• The noise levels in the work place environment will be monitored periodically and if necessary action will be taken in the form of regular maintenance schedule to reduce noise and vibration in generating sources.

• The effects of the vibrations coming out of the base of the body over the surrounding civil structures are minimized by providing Damping pads/Resilient mounting at the time of installation.

• Under the general health check up scheme as per factory act, the workers will however be checked up for any Noise induced Hearing Loss (NIHL) by a trained ENT Doctor.

10.5.6 WATER QUALITY

• Water is essentially used in process, Boiler , cooling tower, washing, Scrubber along with domestic purpose. The total water required for the plant operations will be met from Tanker facility.

Total water consumption will be 84.6 KLPD. From which 1.0 KLPD will used for

Domestic purpose & 3.0 KLPD will be used for gardening purpose.

Resource Conservation / Waste Minimization The unit will also implement the concept of waste minimization circle including:

• Volatiles in the by-products will be condensed and reused.

• Volatile raw materials will be separated by rectification and these can be

recycled into process.

• Good House Keeping practices make the system easier and less costly.

Some of these are as follows:

Solid wastes e.g. powders, spills, etc. in process, and packaging will be

separately collected and disposed off instead of allowing these to join

effluent streams. This will reduce load and increase the efficiency of

treatment system.


315



• Search for future recycling schemes and evaluate their worth and

implement such schemes wherever a promise of economic feasibility

exists.

Discarded Container / Barrels/ Liners Management

• Discarded containers/ barrels/ liners will be kept at a designated place

with paved surface.

• These will be sold to the actual users/ recyclers as per the Hazardous

Waste (Management, Handling and Transboundary Movement) Rules,

2016.

The record of discarded containers/ barrels/ liners stored in scrap yard shall be

maintained and also, inventory of their selling to the registered recyclers shall be

maintained. The same shall be reviewed by the HSE Department of the project.

HANDLING OF SOLID WASTE AND HAZARDOUS WASTE

• The solid wastes and hazardous wastes will be packed in double lined

PP bags and stored in dedicated area. As and when sufficient stock is

accumulated, ETP Waste will be sent to TSDF for further treatment and

safe land fill.

• Industry will enter into an agreement with concerned Hazardous Waste

Management unit.

10.5.8 EB [ECOLOGY & BIODIVERSITY]:

• The project activity does not require tree cutting. Also, the study zone does

not have any ecologically sensitive location and hence, the plant activities

are not expected to have any impact on ecology and biodiversity.

• Air emissions, liquid effluent disposal and solid waste generation are likely to

have some impact on terrestrial ecosystems. However there will be no net

increase in air pollution. • Proponent will develop greenbelt around 33% of its total area.

Management

• Raw material dispensing stations will be equipped with vacuum duct hoods

with top cover.


316



• If they will provide tanks in future then all tanks vents being used for storage

flammable chemicals will be connected to respective condensers to avoid

VOCs in the plant area.

10.5.9 SE [SOCIO-ECONOMIC ASPECTS]:

This project will have positive impacts on Socio-Economic Environment.

Positive impacts

• Direct employment generation potential of the proposed project will

be for about 17 persons, wherein the first preference will be given to

the Qualified local People from Study Area.

• Various modes of indirect employment i.e. providing Conveyance,

Transportation, Goods and Services will also increase.

• Overall improvement in quality of life of people of the study area

will increase.

10.5.10 HG [HYDROGEOLOGY, GROUND WATER & WATER

CONSERVATION]:

The proposed project is located on the divide portion of the catchment

and is over the run off zone. No major streams are passing through the

site. The catchment area of the plant site is small and recharge

conditions are moderate. However, the buffer zone of 10 km radius has

good catchment and recharge potential with streams and tanks of

considerable storage potential.

All the stream courses are ephemeral in character and carry large volumes

of storm flows during rainy season and remain dry during non - monsoon

season. The width of the streams is narrow and follows the weak planes

within the hard rock formations.


317



Ground Water Conditions :- Groundwater occurs under semi-confined conditions in the fissured zone of the banded

biotitic hornblende gneisses. Ten bore wells were inventoried to assess the

groundwater conditions. The depth to water levels was found to be 15-30m. The yield

ranges of bore wells were found to be 200-300 lpm. The quality of water is found to be

potable.

As the extent of the proposed site is very small only roof top rainwater harvesting is

suggested for improving the recharge to the groundwater.

The proposed area is categorized as safe by the Groundwater department and scope

for development & stage of groundwater is good. The site is feasible for groundwater

extraction for the proposed Pigment Green 7 manufacturing unit.

Possible Impacts on Groundwater & Mitigation • The generation of ash from the industry will have sedimentation affect over the

wind ward side on the soil regime as well as the buffer zone over a period of time

affecting the flow rates of water.

• The chemically loaded waste water leakage from the industry may affect the

soil, surface and groundwater sources, so we will closely monitor to avoid any

spillage or leakages.

• The ash spreading in and around the plant will be avoided by storing under

closed conditions at dedicated place till it is disposed to users. The prevention

suggested is not to allow the waste water leakage from the industry by

implementing proper storage tanks for wastewater collection and ZLD system.

• Ash generation and storage will be monitored closely to avoid leakages and will

be disposed safely to the brick manufacturing industries and infrastructure

projects.

• All the chemically charged liquid discharges will not be allowed to be in contact

with surface/ groundwater.


318



10.5.11 GEO [GEOLOGY]:

It is a proposed project, does involve changes in topography and project activities

include excavation of soil in the plant area and construction of buildings and

facilities limited to the project site area. During construction, excavated soil will be

restored to its original shape. Thus the impact during the construction is

reversible, for short term and insignificant. During the operation phase of the

project, no impact is envisaged on the topography. There will be a change in

topography of the land in the project site, but there will be no change in drainage

pattern.

10.5.12 SC [SOIL CONSERVATION]:

The proposed project does not have any impact on the soils beyond the boundaries of

the project site and it is a Zero Liquid Discharge Unit; the chances of any enhanced soil

erosion are not anticipated. But improper disposal of toxic wastes and accidental

spillages of toxic chemicals can pose a serious threat to the soil, ground and surface

waters. But the chances of such events cannot be quantified and predicted. Since the

industry is expected all rules and regulations relating to the use, handling and disposal

of all toxic and hazardous chemicals, no additional safety methods are required

especially to prevent contamination of soil. Liberal use of locally available farmyard

manure will be used for the plants in the greenbelt and block plantations for improving

the productivity, fertility and health of soils.

The project does not have any impact on the soils beyond the boundaries of the project

site since it is a zero liquid discharge unit.

10.5.13 [RISK & HAZARDS MANAGEMENT]:

All the provisions as per the Factories act, 1948 manufacture, storage and import of

hazardous chemicals [MSIHC] Rules, 1989 and amendments thereafter and also, the

Hazardous Waste (Management, Handling and Transboundary Movement) Rules,

2016 will be followed.

Work environment monitoring as well as noise monitoring will be carried out on regular

interval through third party.

Following hazards may occur during the operation.


319



Fire Hazards

Chemicals handling and Storage

Road accidents

Process hazards

Health hazards Following procedures will be followed for effective management of any disaster in the plant.

• Identification of Hazards and Risk assessment

• Identification of persons at risk

• Mitigation measures to minimize or elimination of Risk

• Disaster management plan

10.6 GREENBELT DEVELOPMENT OBJECTIVE

The purpose of a green belt around the plant site is to capture the fugitive emissions

emanating from Plant operations, attenuate the noise generated and improve the

aesthetics.

Environmental protection has been considered as an important domain for industrial and

other developmental activities in India. Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate

Change (MoEF&CC) has taken several policy initiatives and promoted integration of

environmental concerns in developmental projects. One such initiative is the notification on

Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) of developmental projects issued in 1994 and

further revised notification in year 2006 under the provisions of Environment (Protection)

Act, 1986 EIA Guidance Manual for building, construction, townships and area

development projects proactively talks about the importance of greenbelts in such projects.

Greenbelt in India refers to a buffer zone created beyond which industrial activity may not

be carried on. This concept has developed through a long line of cases and today,

greenbelts are present not only for the purpose of protecting sensitive areas to maintain

ecological balance, but are also be found in urban areas so as to act as a sink for the

harmful gases released by vehicles and industries operating in the city area. In this regard,

comprehensive Guidelines for Developing Greenbelts have been compiled by the Central

Pollution Control Board.


320

http://greencleanguide.com/tag/moef/






Action Plan As per the stipulations of MoEF&CC, greenbelt is to be provided all along the boundary by

planting tall, evergreen trees and the total green area including landscaping area will be

about 33% of the project area. There will be block plantations to be done within the project

site. Typical industrial greenbelt on all sides of the plant site with 5 to 10 m width patches

and strips of greenbelt with a spacing of 2m x 3 m). About 25 - 30 trees will be grown in the

space available every year upto 05 year. Since there shall be two rows of trees, they get

direct light at least from one side and the branches can expand. Hence, potentially large

trees with wide canopy are chosen instead of the less branched and straight growing trees.

Soil is good and suitable for plant growth but water supply is critical during the dry season.

Special care shall be taken to water them at least once in 7 to 10 days during the dry

period. A list of plants suitable for greenbelt and to the local agro climatic conditions.

A suggested list of multipurpose trees proposed to be planted in the greenbelt is given in

Table 10.1.

SELECTION OF TREES

The choice of trees species, suitable for plantation at the Industry Site, has been governed by the following guiding factors:

1. As per guidelines issued by Ministry of environment & Forests for greenbelt

development. 2. As per the study carried out by our FAE in Ecological & Biodiversity.

3. The tree must be tolerant to all the pollutants present in the area. 4. The tree should be able to grow and thrive on soil of the areas, be

evergreen, in habitat, having minimum of leaf fall. 5. The tree must be tall in peripheral curtain plantation and with large and

spreading canopy in the primary and secondary attenuation zones. 6. The tree should possess extensive foliar area to provide maximum impinge

surface for continued efficient adsorption and absorption of pollutants. 7. The tree should be fast growing and indigenous. 8. The tree should maintain ecological, land and hydrological balance of the

region.


321



Total plot area is 3366 Sq. meter. From that they had done planning for gardening and plantation for 1121 Sq. Meter. • Unit will develop 25 - 30 trees every month for the period of five years in the

premises and outside premises.

• The tree species selected for the plantation will be pollutant tolerant ,fast growing, wing firm, deep rooted and ever green.

• The company will select pollutant tolerant plant species. For example, Asopalav, Neem Tree, Gulmahor, Julie, etc.

• We will also develop plantation as per the MoEF guidelines all along the periphery of plant so that these trees perform as natural barrier and bring down the fugitive emission and stop carryover of dust along with wind current.

• The tree species selected for the plantation will be pollutant tolerant, fast growing, wing firm, deep rooted, and ever green. The company will select pollutant tolerant plant species.

They will also develop plantation as per the MoEF guidelines all along the periphery of plant so that these trees perform as natural barrier and bring down the fugitive emission and stop carryover of dust along with wind current.

ENERGY CONSERVATION: Energy Conservation and Energy Efficiency are separate, but related concepts. Energy conservation is achieved when growth of energy consumption is reduced, measured in physical terms. Energy Conservation can, therefore, be the result of several processes or developments, such as productivity increase or technological progress. On the other hand Energy efficiency is achieved when energy intensity in a specific product, process or area of production or consumption is reduced without affecting output, consumption or comfort levels. Promotion of energy efficiency will contribute to energy conservation and is therefore an integral part of energy conservation promotional policies. Energy efficiency is often viewed as a resource option like coal, oil or natural gas. It provides additional economic value by preserving the resource base and reducing pollution. For example, replacing traditional light bulbs with Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFLs) means you will use only 1/4th of the energy to light a room. Pollution levels also reduce by the same amount nature sets some basic limits on how efficiently energy can be used, but in most cases our products and manufacturing processes are still a long way from operating at this theoretical limit. Very simply, energy efficiency means using less energy to perform the same function. Inadequate control of steam supply wastes energy. So, we will investigate the

possibility of installing automatic controls. Monitoring drying operations enables energy consumption to be assessed and

possibly reduced. Monitor parameters by us Heat losses from dryers by radiation and convection will be minimized. And we will

improve the insulation of dryers to save energy costs.

Routine cleaning and maintenance programme for the combustion system will improve efficiency and reduce energy costs.

Investigate the possibility of changing any upstream processes in order to decrease

the water content before drying operations. Relatively minor modifications of upstream operating procedures may significantly reduce energy costs.

We will check, if it is possible to use heat recovered from the dryer exhausts in the drying process.

Waste Heat Recovery System Understanding the process is essential for development of Waste Heat Recovery system. This can be accomplished by reviewing the process flow sheets, layout diagrams, piping isometrics, electrical and instrumentation cable ducting etc. Detail review of these documents will help us in identifying: a) Sources and uses of waste heat Prepared By M/s. Bhagwati Enviro Care Pvt Ltd.

339



b) Upset conditions occurring in the plant due to heat recovery c) Availability of space d) Any other constraint, such as dew point occurring in an equipments etc. After identifying source of waste heat and the possible use of it, our next step is to select suitable heat recovery system and equipments to recover and utilize the same. Economic Evaluation of Waste Heat Recovery System It is necessary to evaluate the selected waste heat recovery system for our unit on the basis of financial analysis such as investment, depreciation, payback period, rate of return etc. In addition the advice of experienced consultants and suppliers must be obtained for rational decision. Natural Resources Conservation: Renewable energy is energy obtained from sources that are essentially inexhaustible. Examples of renewable resources include wind power, solar power, geothermal energy, tidal power and hydroelectric power. The most important feature of renewable energy is that it can be harnessed without the release of harmful pollutants. Non-renewable energy is the conventional fossil fuels such as coal, oil and gas, which are likely to deplete with time. 10.13 CHECKLIST IN THE FORM OF DO’S AND DON’T.

transportation, canteen, etc. to the local people / parties.

• The proposed project will create jobs for at least 17 persons. 10.15 INFRASTRUCTURE FACILITIES TO THE LABOURS DURING

CONSTRCITON PHASE:

During the construction period, there will be increase in floating population. The project will provide temporary employment of skilled and highly skilled manpower. Most of the people will be employees of contractors/sub-contractors. Additional strain on civic amenities like road, transport, communication, drinking water, sanitation and other facilities will take place, to meet the work force requirement. During the construction phase there will be increased demand of services, as most of the employees deployed during the construction period will be from local area. These include


343



hotels, lodges, public transport (including taxis), etc. There will also be ample opportunities for providing these services. In addition to the opportunity of getting employment as construction laborers, the local population would also have employment opportunities in related service activities like petty commercial establishments, small contracts/sub-contracts and supply of construction materials for buildings and ancillary infrastructures etc. Consequently, this may lead to economic up liftman of the area. The movement of work force to and from the place of work and the movement of vehicles carrying equipment and construction material is expected to increase the stress on the local transport and road network. However, considering the number of people deployed, the impact on road/traffic is marginal and temporary. Consumer Prices: Usually the local population will be affected by inflationary trend sometime later, when prices of local services and produce, egg, fish, vegetables, milk, etc. start rising. This will happen only when a sizeable staff of the project and other associate companies settle permanently in the area. However any such rise in consumer prices is anticipated because the influx of population due to the project activities is minimal. Transport and Civil Construction: The transport companies would benefit from the construction of the plant. Services: The services like retail shops, banks, and automobile workshops; health care, etc. will expand in and near the plant. Employment: Large-scale influx of material and money tend to increase the employment opportunities. Transport: Transport services on the connecting road will improve further. Traffic: The plant construction phase will also see a moderate increase in traffic. Development of Slums: The contractors have to necessarily provide basic amenities like water supply, sanitation, electricity etc. at the labor camp to maintain hygienic condition and aesthetics. 10.16 ODOUR CONTROL MEASURES

CHAPTER 11 SUMMARY OF ENV. IMPACTS & CONCLUSION

The environmental impacts of projects or actions generally encompass a broad range of impact from Air and Noise pollution to affect on employment and neighborhood as well as on social structure. All of these impacts vary in magnitude as well as in their beneficial or adverse classification. As a result, a natural question arises as to what is the “collective” or “overall” environmental impact of the project or action taken. Is the project beneficial or is it adverse? To answer such a question requires a comparison of these impacts and to some extent subjective evaluation of those impacts which are more important than others. M/s.

Environment Impact Assessment as detailed in previous chapter can now be concise to impact statement given below.

11.2 AIR ENVIRONMENT

Meteorological data collected during the study period October – November – December 2018 confirms that climatic Status of the study area is consistent with the regional meteorology. Average concentration of ambient air quality parameters such as PM10, PM 2.5, SO2 , NOx , Cl2, HCl in the surrounding study area are well within the permissible limits as prescribed in the National Ambient Air Quality (NAAQ) Standards for respective residential rural areas and industrial areas. Evaluated GLCs due to the proposed air pollution load. When added to the monitored existing ambient air quality, provides the expected ambient air quality when the fuel qty will increase in proposed utility and the same indicates that expected AAQ are well within the permissible limit of National Ambient Air Quality Standards for residential rural areas as well as industrial areas. It is concluded from the above that there will be a minor impact on the AAQ of the surrounding environment due to operation of the proposed project.


M/s. Shrey Industries is a proposed unit and the source of water for proposed activity will be by water tanker. The quality of the water was tested at eight locations in the study area. The ground water norms were compared to IS: 10500 (1991) for evaluation. The Industry generates process effluent apart from process, washing, Cooling Tower blow down and domestic effluent.

Wastewater Generation & Disposal:

Total water consumption will be 84.6 KLPD. From which 1.0 KLPD will used

for Domestic purpose & 3.0 KLPD will be used for gardening purpose.

Domestic waste water generation @ 0.8 will discharged to soak pit via septic

tank.


Industrial waste water generation will be 53.9 KLPD. From which process

waste water 47.4 KLPD. It will be treated in Reverse Osmosis. RO Permeate


349



water 35.6 KLPD will be reused back into process & RO Rejected water 11.75

KLPD + Washing effluent 5.0 KLPD + Boiler blow down 1.0 KLPD + Cooling

blow down 0.5 KLPD = 18.3 KLPD will be discharged to M/s. Chhatral

Environment Management System Pvt. Ltd., Chhatral (Common Spray Drying

Facility) for evaporation.

Thus, it can be concluded that negligible impact on surrounding water environment is caused. Further, it is emphasized that all precautionary measures have to be strictly adhered as mentioned in the Environmental Management Plan given in Chapter 10, to maintain ground water quality within norms in the future.

11.4 NOISE ENVIRONMENT

Base line data indicates that noise levels in the study area are not on higher sides. Noise level in and around plant site were measured. Measured noise levels within premises indicate that overall noise levels are within the Damage Risk Criteria. The company will provide ear-protecting devices/ earplugs for working personnel exposed to high noise level. It can be concluded that there will be no impact on the noise level of the surrounding environment.

11.5 HAZARDOUS WASTES

As per the Hazardous Waste (Management & Handling) Amendment Rules, 2003, all necessary control steps for each type of Hazardous Wastes generated from the proposed project will be taken. Therefore, no impact of hazardous wastes generation on surrounding soil environment is anticipated.

11.6 ECOLOGY

The proposed project will be carried out on land within their premises without cutting of any trees. Also, the project site is located in non-agricultural land devoid of any permanent eco-system. So it does not alter the crop pattern and natural vegetation of the surrounding area. Due to the safe control technology of air pollutants, liquid effluents and solid/hazardous wastes disposal, no impact on the surrounding ecology is anticipated.

11.7 SOCIO - ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT

The proposed project will generate direct employment for employment persons. The indirect employment will be generated by way of transportation,


350



shopkeepers and other casual employment. Implementation of this plant will also reduce production loss due to shortage of power. Thus, the proposed project will have significant positive impacts on the employment pattern of the study area.

11.8 LAND USE Source emission, wastewater and hazardous waste generation from any project activity affects the soil environment. The impact due to air causes direct/indirect effect on soil. The emissions of SPM during operation will be effectively controlled. There will be practically no effect on the soil quality due to air emissions. Domestic effluent will be discharged to soak pit and septic tank system. Wastewater generated from the Industrial activity will be treated in Effluent Treatment Plant and finally it will be send to Chhatral Environment Management System Pvt Ltd and ETP waste will be disposed to TSDF site. As per the Hazardous Waste (Management & Handling) Amendment Rules, 2003, all necessary control steps for each type of Hazardous Wastes generated will be taken for the proposed project. Hence, due to the proposed project the, land use pattern; land cover and topography of the area will be changed only for the project premises.

11.9 TOPOGRAPHY :-

It is a proposed project, involve changes in topography and project activities

include excavation of soil in the plant area and construction of buildings and

facilities limited to the project site area. During construction, excavated soil will

be restored to its original shape. Thus the impact during the construction is

reversible, for short term and insignificant. During the operation phase of the

project, no impact is envisaged on the topography.

There will be a change in topography of the land in the project site, but there will

be no change in drainage pattern.


351



11.10 CONCLUSION

It can be concluded on a positive note that due to the adequate provision and

efficient operation of Environmental Management Systems and after the

implementation of the proposed mitigation measures and environmental

management plans, the project activities during the construction and operation

phase would have manageable & largely have reversible impacts on the

environment, and on balance the project would be beneficial to surrounding

communities and the region.
