7.3 By deposition of pollutants emitted to air into the land or

into water No Not Applicable during normal operations

7.4 From any other sources No None identified

7.5 Is there a risk of long term buildup of pollutants in the

environment from these sources? No Not Applicable

8. Risk of accidents during construction or operation of the Project, which could affect human health or the environment



8.1 From explosions, spillages, fires etc from storage,

handling, use or production of hazardous substances

Yes Due to failure of plant and equipment

8.2 From any other causes No Not Applicable





8.3

Could the project be affected by natural disasters causing

environmental damage e.g. floods, earthquakes,

landslides, cloudburst etc)?

Yes

Earthquake

The IPS-1 site lies in Seismic Zone V and IPS-2 site lies in Seismic Zone IV.

IPS-4 and IPS-5 sites lie in Seismic Zone III & II respectively. Therefore, all

construction, design and other features of the project at these sites that can

be impacted due to earthquakes will be as per earthquake sensitive designs

and construction

Floods

The project areas are unlikely to be prone to flooding.

9. Factors which should be considered (such as consequential development) which could lead to environmental effects or the

potential for cumulative impacts with other existing or planned activities in the locality

S. No. Information/Checklist confirmation Yes / No? Details thereof (with approximate quantities/ rates, wherever


9.1

Lead to development of supporting facilities, ancillary

development or development stimulated by the project

which could have impact on the environment e.g.:

supporting infrastructure (roads, power supply, waste or

waste water treatment, etc.) housing development

extractive industries supply industries, (other)

No

The project is a closed system comprising two licensed underground tanks of

20m3 storage capacity each at the respective stations (already exist as

permitted) and a pumping system for boosting the pressure of the crude oil

inside the pipeline that is required to increase the flow in the pipeline as

mentioned above. Therefore development of any support/ancilliary system is

not envisaged.

9.2 Lead to after-use of the site, which could have an impact on

the environment No

Not likely, further the site is likely to be used for the existing activities well

into the foreseeable future.

9.3 Set a precedent for later developments No Not Applicable

9.4 Have cumulative effects due to proximity to other existing or

planned projects with similar effects No

There are no related or similar structures nearby such as pipelines or

storages others than those operated by M/s HPCL-Mittal Pipelines Ltd

CAPACITY EXPANSION OF MUNDRA – BATHINDA CRUDE OIL PIPELINE PROPOSED TERMS OF REFERENCES


2 PROPOSED TERMS OF REFERENCE

The proposal to expand the capacity of SPM, COT, the connecting pipeline from SPM to COT at Mundra Port and

the Crude Oil Pipeline from Mundra coast in Gujarat to Bathinda in Punjab including the existing intermediate

pumping station does not involve any of the following :

1. Change in process or technology : The process and technology being used at the existing intermediate

pumping station will merely be repeated in these two stations.

2. Any land acquisition : Sufficient land owned by HMPL exists at these pigging stations for conversion into

pumping stations.

3. Any change to the Crude Oil Pipeline from Mundra coast in Gujarat to Bathinda in Punjab

including the existing intermediate pumping station : The pipeline has sufficient strength and

additional capacity to handle the new flow requirement.

4. Any change to SPM, COT, the connecting pipeline from SPM to COT at Mundra Port : The capacity

expansion of the SPM will simply be achieved by increasing the berth occupancy at the SPM from present

approx. 19% to approx. 24% i.e. by unloading more crude oil tankers at the SPM to fill the storage tanks at

COT at a higher frequency. Similarly capacity expansion of the COT from present 9 MMTPA to 11.25 MMTPA

can be achieved by receiving crude oil from the SPM at a higher frequency commensurate to its berth

occupancy of approx. 24% and pumping out the crude oil into the Mundra – Bathinda pipeline at a higher

flow rate. In fact, the quantity of liquid effluents at COT and fugitive emissions will also remain within the

already approved quantity.

5. Increase in the production capacity or change in product mix : The SPM, COT, the connecting

pipeline from SPM to COT at Mundra Port and the Crude Oil Pipeline from Mundra coast in Gujarat to

Bathinda in Punjab is used for unloading, storing and transporting imported crude oil from Mundra Port in

Gujarat to Guru Gobind Singh Refinery of M/s HPCL-Mittal Energy Limited near Bathinda in Punjab. As such,

no production or product mix is involved.

Para 4 of EIA Notification dated 14th September, 2006 states that:

“Now, therefore, in exercise of the powers conferred by sub-section (1) and clause (v) of sub-section (2) of

section 3 of the Environment (Protection) Act, 1986, read with clause (d) of sub-rule (3) of rule 5 of the

Environment (Protection) Rules, 1986 and in supersession of the notification number S.O. 60 (E) dated the 27th

January, 1994, except in respect of things done or omitted to be done before such supersession, the

Central Government hereby directs that on and from the date of its publication the required construction of

new projects or activities or the expansion or modernization of existing projects or activities listed in the

Schedule to this notification entailing capacity addition with change in process and or technology

shall be undertaken in any part of India only after the prior environmental clearance from the

Central Government or as the case may be, by the State Level Environment Impact Assessment

Authority, duly constituted by the Central Government under sub-section (3) of section 3 of the said Act, in

accordance with the procedure specified hereinafter in this notification.”

Further, section 7 ii of EIA Notification dated 14th September, 2006 states that:

“All applications seeking prior environmental clearance for expansion with increase in the

production capacity beyond the capacity for which prior environmental clearance has been granted

under this notification or with increase in either lease area or production capacity in the case of mining projects or

for the modernization of an existing unit with increase in the total production capacity beyond the


CAPACITY EXPANSION OF MUNDRA – BATHINDA CRUDE OIL PIPELINE PROPOSED TERMS OF REFERENCES


threshold limit prescribed in the Schedule to this notification through change in process and or

technology or involving a change in the product –mix shall be made in Form I and they shall be

considered by the concerned Expert Appraisal Committee or State Level Expert Appraisal Committee within sixty

days, who will decide on the due diligence necessary including preparation of EIA and public consultations and the

application shall be appraised accordingly for grant of environmental clearance.”

Since, the proposed capacity addition to the SPM, COT, the connecting pipeline from SPM to COT at Mundra Port

and the Crude Oil Pipeline from Mundra coast in Gujarat to Bathinda in Punjab including the existing intermediate

pumping station from 9 MMTPA to 11.25 MMTPA do not involve any change in process or technology, we

understand that prior environmental clearance for the capacity addition may not be required.

We, therefore do not propose any TOR for the proposal.
