(Job No.- 151606104)

1.23 Abstraction or transfers of water form ground or surface waters?

Yes i) Surface water : Present (mine capacity- 15.5 Mtpa) Annual demand of water from GBP Sagar (through IWSS) for domestic use: 2300 m3/day.

Proposed (mine capacity 20/25 Mtpa) Demand of water from GBP Sagar (through IWSS) for domestic use: 3428m3/day, as there is increase in manpower or related domestic infrastructure for expansion program.

ii) Ground water : Due to excavation strata seepage gets accumulated at the floor of the coal seam in the sump having capacity to deal with peak rainfall. In order to maintain the working faces dry for coal production this water is pumped out daily. Mine water discharge at existing mine capacity = 5400 m3/day (present) Mine water discharge at existing mine capacity = 6480 m3/ day. (at max. depth)

It is proposed to prepare a comprehensive Hydro-geological report for proposed expansion.
