10

60 Kg/day and domestic sewage will be about 9 KL/day. The non-biodegradable waste and other packaging material generated as construction debris will be segregated and stored separately. The recyclable non-biodegradable waste salvaged from the debris like cement blocks, wood, iron bars, aluminium sections, etc. would be re-used or sold to the vendors. The inert construction debris will be disposed for land fi ll ing or back f i l ling. The bio-degradable solid waste will be disposed in a bio-bin system for microbial composting and a mobile STP for the treatment of domestic sewage from the labourers. Operation phase : - Solid waste generation will be about 601 Kg/day and which will be collected separately as Bio-degradable and Non-biodegradable waste as per the MSW Rules, 2016. The non-biodegradable and recyclable waste would be sold to the vendors. The biodegradable waste would be sent to the bio-gas generation plant. The dried sludge from STP would be sent to the bio-gas generation plant. Bio-medical waste:- From the proposed hospital , bio-medical waste (about 553 Kg/day) l ike infectious beddings, cotton, swabs, used syringes, discarded medicines, etc. would be generated. The bio-medical waste would be segregated at source by providing appropriate colour coded bins / containers as per the colour coding provided in the Bio-Medical Waste (Management & Handling) Rules. The Bio-medical waste from the hospital buildings would be outsourced through a Kerala State Pollution Control Board authorized agency (M/s Indian Medical Associat ion Goes Eco Friendly, IMAGE). e-Waste : - Discarded computer parts, monitor, key boards etc. constitutes e-waste and this waste will be stored in an earmarked area. e-waste will be disposed as per e Waste (Management & Handling) Rules.

11

Also, domestic hazardous waste would be generated like discarded paint drums, pesticide cans, CFL bulbs, tube lights, expired medicines, broken mercury thermometers, used batteries, used needles and syringes and contaminated gauge etc. generated at the household level. Radio active waste management : - � The use of unsealed radioisotopes regular ly gives rise to radioactive waste, which has to be disposed of in a responsible and safe manner. The waste may include residual amounts of the original radionuclide, disposable containers (vials, syringes etc.) partially decayed or surplus unsealed sources.

� The radioactive waste should be segregated from the non-active waste. Lead line waste bins with polythene linings should be used for collect ing solid radioactive waste and Vials for l iquid waste.

� When both lived nuclide and longer l ived one are used, separate waste collect ion bins and storage bags should be provided for the two categories of radionuclide.

� The disposal procedures are based on the following principles. o Dilute and dispersion for low level radioactive waste: - low activity short l ived radioactive waste may be disposed off into the sewage system with adequate flushing with water.

o Delay and decay for short l ived radio isotopes – waste containing short lived isotopes such as from isotope generator may stored in a special made RCC pit and release as general waste.

developed by M/s KUNHITHARUVAI MEMORIAL CHARITABLE TRUST

1. INTRODUCTION

M/s Kunhi tharuvai Memorial Charitable Trust proposes to expand the

exist ing hospi tal campus project at Thazhakkode Vi l lage, Mukkom

Municipal i ty, Kozhikode Taluk & District, Kerala. The tota l p lot area is

11.7638 ha. and bui l t-up area for the proposed project is about

31,694.98 sq.m.

The populat ion expected during construction phase of the project is

about 150 persons per day which includes the skil led, semi skil led &

unskil led workers. Also, this inc ludes engineers, supervisors,

technic ians & other manageria l s taf f .

The population calculat ion for the proposed project during the

operat ion phase of the project is made based on the specif ications

provided in National Bui lding Code (NBC). The maximum expected

populat ion in a day during operation phase of the hospital project is

worked out. The specif ications as per NBC and the expected populat ion

af ter the proposed expansion are given below:-

Sr. No. Descript ion

1. In Patients ( No. of Beds ) = 790 Beds

2. Visi tors / bye-standers inpatients = 1,580 Persons

( 2 Persons / Bed )

3. Out Patients = 1,580 Persons

4. Vis itor / bye-standers with OPD patient = 1,580 Persons

( 1 Person / Out Patient )

5. Total no. of staff expected in the campus (wi thout

accommodation) ( l ike faculty, doctors, nurses, group-IV staff & other staff etc.) = 1,580 Persons

6. TOTAL = about 7,110 Persons (on full occupancy)

One of the main cr iter ia for quanti fying the environment impacts related

to the project dur ing the construction phase and operat ion phase for

the project is the maximum populat ion expected in a day. Based on

which the requirement of daily water consumption, waste water

generat ion, sol id waste generat ion etc. is calculated.

The Environment Management Plan (EMP) is a s ite specif ic plan

developed to ensure that the project is implemented in an

environmental ly sustainable manner and to understand the potent ial

environmental r isks ar is ing f rom the proposed project and take

appropr iate act ions to minimize those r isks. EMP also ensures that the

project implementat ion is carr ied out in accordance wi th the planned

design and by taking appropr iate mitigat ion measures to reduce

adverse environmental impacts during the project ’s l i fe cycle.

2. AREAS FOR IDENTIFICATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECTS AND

IMPACTS

The environmental parameters l ikely to be af fected by a construction

project are related to many factors, i.e. physical, social, economic etc.

The operations may disturb environment of the project area and i ts

surroundings in var ious ways, such as removal of mass / earth, change

of landscape, clear ing of f lora and displacement of fauna of the area,

surface drainage, and l ikely change in a ir qual i ty, water qual i ty and soil

quali ty. While for the purpose of development and economic up-l i f tment

of people, there is need for establ ishment of the project, but these

should be environment f r iendly. Then only a sustainable development

can be ensure. Therefore, it is essential to assess the impacts of

proposed project on dif ferent environmental parameters, before starting

the construction activi t ies as well as the operat ional act iv i t ies, so that

abatement measures could be planned in advance for the area.

3. ENVIRONMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN (EMP)

The Environment Management Plan (EMP) for a development project

prescribes the mitigat ion measures to be adopted to null i fy or to

minimize various ant ic ipated environment impacts so as to ensure nil /

low impact due to the project to the surrounding environment. This wi l l

ensure sustainable and environment f r iendly development. The

F. RISK ASSESSMENT AND DISASTER MANAGEMENT PLAN

1.1 Introduction

This chapter broadly looks at var ious aspects related to r isk & disaster

management and resource conservat ion.

1.2 Risk Assessment and Disaster Management Plan

1.2.1 Need and Plans

Proposed project is an expansion of hospita l campus project encompasses the

lives of a large number of people. I t also involves instal lat ion of var ious

structures and machiner ies that meet the comfort and needs of its populat ion

but may also pose serious threat to the occupants in case of accident. It is thus

considered necessary to carry out a risk assessment and prepare a disaster

management plan for the project.

The planning and construction of the bui ld ings follow al l the safety norms, it

may not be always possible to total ly elim inate the r isks of eventuali t ies and

fai lures of equipment or human errors. An essential part of major hazard contro l

has therefore wil l be concerned with mit igat ing the ef fects of such emergency

and restorat ion of normalcy at the earl iest.

The overal l objective of an Emergency Response Plan (ERP) is to make uses of

combined resources at the si te and outs ide serv ices to achieve the following:

1. To localize the emergency and if possible el im inate i t ;

2. To minimize the ef fects of the accident on people and proper ty;

3. Effectively rescue and medical treatment of casualties;

4. Safeguard to other people;

5. Evacuate people to safe areas;

6. Informing and col laborat ing with statutory authori t ies;

7. In i t ial ly contain and ul t imately br ing the incident under contro l;

8. Preserve relevant records and equipment for the subsequent enquiry into

the cause and c ircumstances of the emergency;

9. Investigating and taking steps to prevent reoccurrence

The ERP is therefore related to identi f icat ion of sources f rom which hazards

can arise and the maximum credib le loss scenario that can take place in the

concerned area. The response plan takes into account the maximum credib le

loss scenario - actions that can successfully mit igate the ef fects of losses/

emergency need to be well planned so that they would require less effort and

ENVIRONMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN

CONSTRUCTION PROJECT (EXPANSION OF THE EXISTING PROJECT)

developed by M/s KUNHITHARUVAI MEMORIAL CHARITABLE TRUST

resources to control and terminate emergencies, should the same occur.

Main hazards identif ied for the project include hazards perta ining to f ires in

bui ldings and f ire in diesel storage areas, earthquake and LPG leakage an

ERP per tain ing to these condit ion is described in the fol lowing sections.

1.2.2 Response in Case of Earthquake

Response Procedures for Occupants

If indoors:

1. Take cover under a piece of heavy furniture or against an inside wall and

hold on.

2. Stay inside: The most dangerous thing to do during the shaking of an

earthquake is to try to leave the bui lding because objects can fall on you.

If outdoors :

Move into the open, away f rom buildings, streetl ights and ut i l i ty wires. Once

in the open, stay there unt i l the shaking stops.

If in a moving vehicle:

Stop quickly and stay in the vehic le. Move to a clear / safe area away f rom

bui ldings, trees, overpasses or ut i l i ty wires. Once the shaking has stopped,

proceed with caution. Avoid br idges or ramps that might have been damaged

by the quake.

After the quake

1. Af ter the quake be prepared for af tershocks.

2. Although smaller than the main shock, af tershocks cause addit ional

damage and may bring weakened structures down. Af tershocks can occur

in the f irst hours, days, weeks, or even months af ter the quake.

Help injured or trapped persons.

1. Give f irs t aid where appropriate. Do not move seriously injured persons

unless they are in immediate danger of further injury. Cal l for help.

2. Remember to help those who may require special assistance, l ike infants,

the elderly and people with d isabil i t ies.

3. Stay out of damaged bui ldings.

4. Use the telephone only for emergency cal ls .

Response Procedure for Emergency Team

1. Formulate an Emergency Response Team for earthquake response

2. Using the publ ic address system, inform residents/occupiers about

response procedures d iscussed above.

ENVIRONMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN

CONSTRUCTION PROJECT (EXPANSION OF THE EXISTING PROJECT)

developed by M/s KUNHITHARUVAI MEMORIAL CHARITABLE TRUST

3. Inform the necessary authori t ies for aid

4. Ensure no residents / occupants are stuck beneath any debris, in case of

a structural fai lure.

5. Ensure that a l l occupiers standing outs ide near the buildings are taken to

open areas.

6. Ensure that the f irs t aid ambulance and f ire tender vehicles are

summoned if necessary.

7. Inform the nearby hospitals i f there are any injur ies.

8. Check the uti l i t ies and storage tanks for any damage.

1.2.3 Status on natural disasters w.r.t . site and surroundings

There are no reported incidents of any landslide, earthquake, c loud burst in the

project v ic in ity in the last 100 years.

The structural design aspects as per the seismic codes – IS 1893 (2002), IS

13920 (1993) and IS 456 (2000) as appl icable would be incorporated in our

project.

1.2.4 Response for LPG Leakage

1. The af fected area should be evacuated and cordoned off immediately

2. In i t iate an Emergency Response Team for LPG leakage.

3. Shut down the main valves in the gas bank, if any in the Canteen.

4. Ensure that only concerned personnel are present in the affected area and

al l other personnel and vis i tors are moved to the nearest assembly points.

5. Rescue trapped personnel, also check if any personnel are unconscious in the

area and immediately move them outside and provide f irst aid. Ambulance

should be summoned to take injured personnel to the nearest other hospi tal.

6. Personnel in the nearby buildings to close al l doors and windows to

prevent entry of the leaked gas.

7. Source of leakage to be traced and isolated f rom al l the other areas. And

i f required use pedestal fans to br ing down the gas concentrat ion.

8. In case of f i re fol low the instruct ions mentioned below:

1.2.5 Response in case of Fire

1. Required response during in the event of a f ire should be described in

s ign boards located in the lobby.

ENVIRONMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN

CONSTRUCTION PROJECT (EXPANSION OF THE EXISTING PROJECT)

developed by M/s KUNHITHARUVAI MEMORIAL CHARITABLE TRUST

2. On s ighting a f ire, i t should be immediately informed to the environment

manager / management giving the exact locat ion and type of f ire in detai l .

3. In i t iate the Emergency Response Team for f ires.

4. If the f ire is small , engage in ext inguishing the f ire using the nearest f ire

extinguisher.

5. Guide the Emergency Response Team staff to the emergency assembly point.

6. The Emergency Response Team should immediate ly inform the nearest

dispensary and security force. If required a f ire tender should be

summoned.

7. The response team should immediately move to the point of f ire and take

al l necessary steps to stop the f ire. If the f ire is not controllable and

spreads then the manager in charge should inform the distr ic t authori t ies

and cal l for external help.

8. The Emergency Response Team wil l provide immediate rel ief to the

injured person at the scene of incident. Any injured persons should be

evacuated on pr ior ity to the d ispensary or one of the nearest hospitals

based on their condit ion.

Instruct ions for Occupants

1. Get out of bui ldings quickly and as safely as possible.

2. Use the stairs to escape. When evacuating, stay low to the ground.

3. If possible, cover mouth with a cloth to avoid inhal ing smoke and gases.

4. Close doors in each room after escaping to delay the spread of the f ire, if in

a room with a c losed door.

5. If smoke is pouring in around the bottom of the door or i f i t feels hot,

keep the door c losed.

6. Open a window to escape or for f resh air while await ing rescue.

7. If there is no smoke at the bottom or top and the door is not hot, then

open the door s lowly.

8. If there is too much smoke or f ire in the hal l , s lam the door shut.

9. Stay out of damaged bui ldings.

10. Check that al l wir ing and uti l i t ies are safe.

A state of the art f ire f ight ing system is proposed for the project to prevent

and control f i re outbreaks. The f ire f ight ing system wil l consist of portable

f ire ext inguishers, hose reel , wet r iser, yard hydrant, automatic sprinkler

system and manual f ire alarm system. The proposed buildings wil l a lso be

ENVIRONMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN

provided with automatic f ire detect ion and alarm system as per National

Bui lding Code guidel ines for Fire & Safety.

G. CONCLUSION

I t is predicted that socio-economic impact due to th is project wi l l posit ively

increase the chance of more employment opportunities for local inhabitants.

There are no Resett lement and Rehabil i tat ion issues involved in this project.

The project inf rastructures wil l be of use to people of the area. The revenue

of the State Govt. wi l l be def in itely increase due to the proposed activi ty. The

entire project area is devoid of any endemic / endangered f lora and fauna. As

part of the eco restoration with nat ive species to a maximum possible

extent. Also, rain water collection tanks / ponds proposed for storage of

rain water and for its subsequent use so as to conserve fresh water

consumption. The municipal solid waste/ bio-medical waste & e-waste

will be handled and disposed as per norms. Thus the proposed project is

not l ikely to af fect the environment or adjacent ecosystem adversely and wil l

ensure a sustainable development.
