management of the project in general and implementation of the mitigation measures in

particular The EMP provides a delivery mechanism to address potential adverse impacts and to

introduce standards of good practice to be adopted for all project works. The anticipated impacts

due to Mining and allied activates are air, noise land, water and socio – economic along with the

mitigations to the extent possible are described in the following paragraphs.

9.1 Sources of Pollution and Control measures

The major sources for pollution are air and noise and Dust due to proposed mine from loading

operation and transportation of material to the places. However, as the quarrying area is very

limited hence dust generated is very little though the applicant is taking all the precautionary

steps for protecting the air pollution by greater extent of water sprinkling system out the mine

lease area.

9.1.1 Air Pollution and its Mitigation

Anticipated Sources of Air Pollution

Digging & Excavation (Dust, Non – fugitive) Loading & unloading and Transportation by vehicles (fugitive and line sources)

Air Quality Management Road – Regular repair (every 6 months) and Grading

Regular water sprinkling on haulage roads during dry conditions

Trucks - Avoid overloading of trucks and Unnecessary idling of vehicles. Movement – Trucks to be covered with tarpaulin / plastic Enforcing for dust limit (<25 kmph) Plantations – Green belt development and avenue plantation Precautionary measures by providing the protective nose mask for dust. 9.1.2 Noise Pollution and its mitigation Sources of Noise The Gravel & Rough Stone rock breaking, haulage may be generating noise, however, the probable noise level will be within permissible limits. The noise produced due to the machinery operations and transport vehicles. However, all the vehicles are regularly repaired and checking the maintenance.

1. Loaded trucks movement generates 80-84 dB (A) (2-3 trucks short time stay at mine area) 2. Digging and excavation activities -70 dB(A) (Only during day time) 3. (if required Blasting operation only for few minutes) 4. Normal values when mining is not in operation (40-45dB(A))

14


Control Measures

Safety sign will be displayed inside and outside the mine to avoid road accidents.

15


12.0 Afforestation Programme and Flora – Fauna

Flora and Fauna

Due to water stress conditions and Edaphic factor the biomass cover is less. Tree coverage is less and mostly herbs and shrubs are dominating.

The vegetation is very scarce. No valuable plant species are found that is ecologically Important (Rare, endangered threatened etc.) restricted to the area.

The loss of biomass cab be compensated by providing ideal conditions (proper supervision, water, fertilizer etc.)for the proposed Green Belt.

Other than domestic animals no ecologically important animals are reported in this area

13.1 Proposed Afforestation

The Soil scraped from the surface will be stored temporarily along the edges of the mine till the complete extraction. This ensures proper preservation and utilization of the soil.

13.2 Proposal for reclamation of land affected by Mining

The proposed mining will result in reducing the height of the area and exposing the parent rock. To the ground level, the applicant may be Reutilize for Agriculture purpose after completion of the Quarrying.

13.3 Environmental Greening Program

Environmental greening program is an important component of the Environment Management Plan and is an imperative requirement for any major industrial activity, as per the guidelines issued by the ministry of Environment and forests, Govt. of Indian Conceptualization, design and implementation of the proposed activity and the site conditions area presented. Each year some of the part of the barrier zone will be subjected to Afforestation and care will be taken to protect the saplings. Fruit growing trees are proposed to be planted.

13.4 Plantation programme The Quarry lease applied area is not suitable for plantation as entire area is hillock area. There are absolutely chances of any tree can growing in the quarry area. However it is proposed to plant a few trees in the same place or nearby village. The details are proposed plantation. Viz, Neem and Sarugudu etc which is envisaged of good survival rate.

13.0 Socio – Economic Environment For the functioning of the mine approx. 15 manpower will be utilized and it will not have

any significant impact on economy of the local people It will have indirect benefit to the people of Andhra Pradesh in the form of collection of

tax. Land allocated for road will be laid with avenue plantation along with lights which will be

useful for the local people No impact due to influx of population / labour because the mine is very small.
