The samples of ambient air, ground and surface water and soil are collected and analyzed as

per the standard methods for establishing the baseline data and to determine the impact of

proposed activity on the same.

1.5.1.1 Ambient Air Environment

The air environment around the plant was studied by setting up eight locations within the

study area of 10 km radius from the project site and collection and monitoring the site

specific meteorological data, viz. wind speed, wind direction, humidity, rainfall and ambient

temperature was carried out. Design of network for ambient air quality monitoring locations

is based on guidelines provided by CPCB. The ambient air samples were collected and

analyzed for SPM, PM10, PM2.5, SO2, NOX, HCl, Cl2, O3, Pb, CO, NH3, C6H6, Benzo (a) Pyrene

(BaP), Arsenic (As), Nickel (Ni) & VOCs for identification, prediction, evaluation and

assessment of potential impact on ambient air environment.

1.5.1.2 Ground And Surface Water Environment

The water required for domestic and industrial use is being made available from surface

water. Hence, to assess the physico-chemical quality of the water, a number of water

samples were collected and analyzed for pollution parameters viz., pH, TDS, Turbidity, BOD3,

COD, Fluorides, Chlorides, Sulphates, Nitrates, Ammonical Nitrogen, Hardness, Alkalinity, Oil

& Grease and some heavy metals in order to find out the contamination, if any.

1.5.1.3 Noise Environment

Noise pollution survey was conducted in the study zone. The anticipated noise sources were

industrial activities, which are likely to be increased due to proposed activity. Noise levels

were also recorded in surrounding villages for evaluating general scenario of the study area.

Sulphate and Polyelectrolyte shall be dosed from Flocculants Dosing Tank (FDT-01) and

Polyelectrolyte Dosing Tank (PEDT-01) respectively by gravity into FM-01 to carry out

coagulation by using a Flash Mixer. Then after, coagulated wastewater shall be settled in

Primary Tube Settler (PTS-01). Clear supernatant from PTS-01 shall be passed in

AerationTank (AT-01)

Here, biodegradation of organic matter of the wastewater shall be carried out by bacteria

(suspended growth) in the AT-01and for that oxygen shall be supplied by 2 nos. of air

blowers (B-02) through diffusers. Air blowers also keep MLSS in suspension.

Then after, wastewater shall go to Secondary Settling Tank (SST-01) from AT-01. Here, the

suspended solids shall be settled. Sludge shall be removed from bottom of SCL-01 and

pumped to AT-01 to maintain MLSS and excess activated sludge shall be sent to Sludge

Sump (SS-01). Clear supernatant from SCL-01 is the collected in of Intermediate Sump (IS-

01) by gravity

Thereafter, the wastewater shall be passed through Dual Media Filter (DMF-01) to remove

left out TSS and for final effluent polishing. After tertiary treatment, Filter water is collected

to Treated Water Sump (TWS-01) & use for land irrigation.

Sludge collected in Sludge Sump (SS-01) from PTS-01 and SST-01 shall be send to Filter Press

for dewatering. Then dry cake shall be stored in HWSA before final disposal to TSDF.

Leachate from Filter Press and back wash from DMF-01 shall be sent back to ENTs-01 for

EIA Report Prepared By Aqua-Air Environmental Engineers Pvt. Ltd., Surat 77

CHAPTER – 3 BASELINE ENVIRONMENTAL STATUS

The baseline status of environmental quality in the vicinity of project site serves as the basis

for identification, prediction and evaluation of impacts. The baseline environmental quality

is assessed through field studies within the impact zone for various components of the

environment, viz. air, noise, water, land and socio-economic. The baseline environmental

quality has been assessed in the summer season 2017 (March to May, 2017) in accordance

with the guidelines for preparation of EIA studies in a study area of 10 km radial distance

from the project site.

3.1 MICRO-METEOROLOGY OF THE AREA

The climate of Gujarat is varied, as it is moist in the southern districts and dry in the

northern region. The Arabian Sea and the Gulf of Cambay in the west and the forest-covered

hills in the east soften the rigors of climatic extremes, consequently reducing the

temperature and render the climate more pleasant and healthy. Bharuch lies along the

southern part of the state and experiences a climate with aridity index of 15 to 20 per cent

indicating adequate moisture availability in the soils for most part of the year. (Courtesy:

Environmental Information Centre, New Delhi).

3.2 AIR ENVIRONMENT

3.2.1 DESIGN OF NETWORK FOR AMBIENT AIR QUALITY MONITORING LOCATIONS

The air quality status in the impact zone is assessed through a network of ambient air

quality monitoring locations. The tropical climatic conditions mainly control the transport

and dispersion of air pollutant emissions during various seasons.

The baseline studies for air environment include identification of specific air pollutants prior

to implementation of the project. The Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) study

requires monitoring of baseline ambient air quality during one season. Accordingly, ambient

air quality monitoring was carried out in the pre-monsoon season from March 1, 2017 to

May 31, 2017 was collected. The main sources of air emissions in the study area are

industrial operations, vehicular emission, dust from paved and unpaved tracks, fuel burning

for domestic purpose, and windblown dust from open land.

Nine Ambient Air Quality Monitoring (AAQM) locations were selected based on guidelines of

ambient air quality network siting criteria of CPCB. All AAQM locations were selected within

the study area of 10 km radial distance from the project site covering all zones i.e. industrial,

residential, rural & other area as per NAAQS and keeping in mind local topography and

meteorology of the area.

3.2.2 METHODOLOGY FOR AMBIENT AIR QUALITY MONITORING

The ambient air quality monitoring was carried out in accordance with National Ambient Air

Quality Standards (NAAQS) of CPCB. Ambient Air Quality Monitoring (AAQM) was carried

out at ten locations during the study period. The locations of the different stations with

respect to its distance and direction from project site are shown in Table-3.6 and Figure-3.3

respectively.

The conventional and project specific parameters such as Suspended Particulate Matter,

Respirable Suspended Particulate Matter (RSPM-PM10), Respirable Suspended Particulate

Matter (RSPM-PM2.5), Sulphur Dioxide (SO2), Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx), Ozone (O3), Lead

(Pb), Carbon Monoxide (CO), Ammonia (NH3), Benzene (C6H6), Benzo (a) Pyrene (BaP),

Arsenic (AS), Nickel (Ni), Chlorine (Cl2), HCl, HF, NH3 , Br2 & VOCs were monitored at site.

The values for mentioned concentrations of various pollutants at all the monitoring

locations were processed for different statistical parameters like arithmetic mean, minimum



concentration, and maximum concentration and percentile values. The existing baselines

levels of Suspended Particulate Matter, Respirable Suspended Particulate Matter (RSPM-

PM10), Respirable Suspended Particulate Matter (RSPM-PM2.5), Sulphur Dioxide (SO2),

Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx), Ozone (O3), Lead (Pb), Carbon Monoxide (CO), Ammonia (NH3),

Benzene (C6H6), Benzo (a) Pyrene (BaP), Arsenic (AS), Nickel (Ni), Chlorine (Cl2) ), HCl, HF,

NH3 , Br2 & VOCs are expressed in terms of various statistical parameters as given in Tables-

3.2.3 SUMMARY:

The observed ambient air quality concentrations are presented in Table-3.7. They represent

the cross sectional distribution of the baseline air quality status of the study region.

The maximum concentration of SPM (145.3 µg/m3), PM10 (95.94 µg/m

3), PM2.5 (57.51

µg/m3), SO2 (26.72 µg/m

3), NOx (28.53 µg/m

3), O3 (11.73 µg/m

3), CO (1.3 µg/m

3), VOC (0.7

ppm), was recorded in study area.

The minimum concentration of SPM (116.8 µg/m3), PM10 (74.91 µg/m

3), PM2.5 (43.55

µg/m3), SO2 (15.75 µg/m

3), NOx (18.63 µg/m

3), O3 (10.51 µg/m

3), CO (1.21 µg/m

3), VOC (0.4


The PM10 and PM2.5 concentrations at all the AAQM locations were primarily caused by local

phenomena including industrial & vehicular activities and natural dust getting air borne due



to manmade activities and blowing wind. PM10 and PM2.5 concentrations were observed

below stipulated standards of CPCB for Industrial, Residential, Rural and Other Area at all air

quality monitoring locations during the monitoring period.

3.3 NOISE ENVIRONMENT

The objective of the noise pollution survey around the project site was to identify existing

noise sources and to measure background noise levels. Major noise sources in the study

area are industries, commercial, and vehicular movements. The noise monitoring locations

are given in Table-3.8A and shown in Figure-3.4 while the results of noise monitoring are

given in Table 3.8B.

3.3.1 METHODOLOGY FOR NOISE MONITORING

The noise monitoring was carried out at ten locations in day time during (6 am to 9 pm) and

at night time (9 pm to 6 am) in the study area covering all the areas i.e. industrial,

commercial, residential and silence zones as mentioned in Noise (Pollution and Control)

Rules, 2000. CPCB Recommendations for community noise exposure are attached as

Annexure – 3. Hourly Equivalent noise levels Leq (day) and Leq (night) were measured at

each monitoring locations. One day monitoring on April 6-10, 2017 during day and night

time was carried out at all the locations. Besides, damage risk criteria for hearing loss given

by Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) are enclosed as Annexure - 2.

The noise level measured in study area at different locations is given in Table 3.8. The noise

sources identified around the site are vehicular traffic, industrial and commercial activities.

CPCB recommendation for community noise exposure in different category of area (i.e.

residential, commercial, industrial and silence zone) is enclosed as Annexure - 3 while

Damage risk criteria for hearing loss given by occupational safety & health administration

(OSHA) is enclosed as Annexure - 2. The noise levels were below the stipulated standards of

CPCB.

Noise levels due to transportation were also measured at three different locations. The

equivalent noise level Leq (60 min average) measured at a distance of 10 m and 20 m from

the edge of the road at each of the locations are presented in Table 3.9. The communities

close to the project site are not exposed to major noise sources. The commercial activities



and transport apart from natural sources contribute to community noise levels.

3.6 GEOLOGICAL DATA

3.6.1 METHOD OF PREPARATION

The geological classification map has been prepared by extracting the areas under different

geological classification from the 1:2 million scale maps prepared by Geological Survey of

India (GSI) for the State of Gujarat. The map text has been modified in consultations with

the Department of Geology, University of Delhi. The project site, towns and village locations

have been added for ease of spatial reference. Locations of towns and villages have been

extracted from CoI maps, SoI topographical maps and confirmed with satellite data.



3.6.2 DESCRIPTION OF GEOLOGICAL CLASSIFICATION AND AREA UNDER DIFFERENT

FORMATIONS

Geologically the area is monotonous with little variations. The alluvial deposits of the area

belong to the Quaternary period and have almost the same history of sedimentation, basin

characters and environments of deposition. The deposits have marginal variation in their

composition and thickness. The alluvium shows ample evidences of neotectonism; the

drainage courses are governed by structural dislocation and disturbed by the neotectonic

activities. Table 3.17 provides the major geological features and area under different

formations.

3.6.3 GEOLOGICAL MAP

A map depicting the major geological features in the project area is presented in Figure 3.8.

The map also marks the area within 10 km with project site as a centre. Town and village

locations are also depicted to facilitate ease of reference.

MAJOR GEOLOGICAL FEATURES



3.7 LAND USE PATTERN

Land use, in general, reflects the human beings activities on land, whereas the word land

cover indicates the vegetation, agricultural and artificial manmade structures covering the

land surfaces. Identification and periodic surveillance of land uses and vegetation covers, in

the vicinity of any developmental activity is one of the most important components for an

environmental impact assessment, which would help determine the impact of the project

development activity on the land use pattern.

3.7.1 METHOD OF DATA PREPARATION

The land use / land cover has been presented in the form of a map prepared by using IRS P6

LISS-III and procured from the National Remote Sensing Agency (NRSA), Hyderabad. The

satellite data has been processed using ERDAS Imagine software supported with ground

checks and ground truth verification. Area and distance calculations have been carried out

using GIS software after geo-referencing the interpreted data with the help of Survey of

India (SoI) topographical maps of the scale 1:50,000.

A map depicting major land use/ land cover classes comprising lands under agriculture,

fallow land, open/degraded vegetation; lands falling under water bodies, scrub and lands

under inhabitations is presented at Figure 3.9. The map also marks the area within 10 km of

the project site as the area of interest. Land use and Land Cover with Towns and Village

3.8 ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION

3.8.1 INTRODUCTION

Bharuch is located approximately 70 km from Vadodara, on the banks of river Narmada, and

is often referred to as Kanam Pradesh – Land of Black Soil, due to its black cotton soil.

However, it is this rich quality of this soil that has made Bharuch one of the leading

cultivators and exporters of cotton in the country today. This fact also adds up to the

ecological diversity of the district. This very old town was mentioned in historical records

nearly 2000 years ago. In the 17th century, English and Dutch factories were established

here. On the riverbank, outside the city to the east, is the Temple of Bhrigu Rishi, from

which probably the city took its name, Bhrigu-ka-chba, later shortened to Bharuch.



Rodgers and Pawan (1988) have classified India based on its biogeography (distribution and

affinities of flora and fauna) into 10 distinct bio-geographic zones and further into 26 biotic

provinces. According to this, Gujarat has representation of four bio-geographic zones and

five biotic provinces. Panoli of Bharuch district falls under Zone 5 - the Western Ghats:

Province 5A - Malabar Coast, central alluvial plains of Gujarat mainland.

3.8.2 PHYSIOGRAPHY

The region provides a combination of most of the geo-environmental features for the

development of favorable ecosystems. The alluvial sediments and reasonable water

resources have provided impetus towards developing human induced ecosystems of

agricultural cropping agro-forestry and horticulture. The elevation range of the region is

about 20 m showing a very gentle flat gradient of 1:800 to 1:1000. The region shows more

or less a flat topography with a series of sections cut by deeply incised channels of rivers

flowing across the region. The river banks are generally marked by levee deposits, creating a

ridge type banks with higher elevations than the general ground level. The flat topography is

dotted by low height sandy mounds of stabilized dunes. Formation of ravine landscape is

quite common on most of the river banks due to deep gully erosion. The rivers are prone to

heavy floods and land erosion.

3.8.3 FOREST

Bharuch area is characterized by tropical dry deciduous forests. The total forest area of

district is 1449.68 sq.km. That accounts for 0.73 % of the total geographical area of the

district. The nearest forest patch is Ratanpur Reserve Forest, which is about 21.65 km from

the project area. (Source: Forest Department, Government of Gujarat).

3.9.4 GROUND WATER HYDROLOGY

Introduction

Geology: Geologically the major part of the state is covered by hard rock comprising of

gneisses, schists, phyllites, sand stone and basalt. Remaining area in the north and central is

occupied by the soft rock including coastal alluvium. District Bharuch is mainly occupied by

the soft rocks like alluvium, tertiary in the north but as we move to the south the district is

covered with hard rocks and few hilly areas.

Hydrology: Hydrologically the areas have soft rock aquifers with dug wells at the depth of 10

to 25m, and tube wells at the depth of 50 to 100m. The level of ground water productivity of

this type of rocks are mapped by violet colour, the difference in the discharge is shown

through the difference in the intensity of the colour (light colour discharge-ipm) 200 to 300

in dug wells and 400 to 60 ipm in the tube well, and dark shade shows the discharge to 200

to 300 ipm in dug wells and 600 to 1200 ipm in tube wells. The hard rock aquifers dug well

are found at the depth of 10 to 25m and bore well at the depth of 100 to 200m. The areas

with extensive hard rock aquifers where pores space of rocks have secondary permeability

are called ‘fractured permeability’. The intensity can be measured through the darkness in

the colour, that is green which is used to map the hard rock aquifers, the discharge varies

from 60 to 150 ipm in dug wells areas, 100 to 300 ipm in bore wells.

Groundwater Utilization (Critical Blocks)

Based on state of groundwater development, the various blocks/talukas in a district are

categorised as over-exploited, critical, semi critical & safe categories. In case, where annual



groundwater withdrawals are more than 100% of the annual recharge availability, it is

categorised as over-exploited, meaning that all the annually replenishable groundwater is

already being used up. In cases of talukas, where the annual withdrawals are in the ranges

of 90% to 100%, in relative to the annual available groundwater recharge, they are

categorised as critical blocks. The talukas/blocks, in which the range is 70 % to 90%, are

categorised as semi critical. The safe category of talukas/blocks has stage of groundwater

development below 70% in relative to annual recharge availability.



3.10 Drainage Pattern

The main rivers of Bharuch district are Narmada, Kim, Kavar, Amaravati and Dhadhar.

Eastern part of the district and particularly some portion of Jhagadiya taluka are hilly, while

remaining portion is plain and flat. Bharuch district includes 8 talukas - Jambusar, Amod,

Vaghara, Bharuch, Ankleshwar, Hansot, Valia and Jhagadiya.

Hydrology:

The geology of the district with vast area affected by inherent/coastal salinity, presents a

complex hydrogeological pattern. Hydrogeological map is shown in fig the hard rocks, the

semi-consolidated Cretaceous, and Tertiary formations and unconsolidated alluvial deposits,

all comprise multi – aquifer systems thereby presenting unconfined as well as confined

groundwater conditions in the entire district. Tertiary formations are inherently saline and

contain poor quality of groundwater. Groundwater occurs under unconfined conditions in

the limestone and sandstone aquifers of Bagh beds. Occurrence and movement of

groundwater is restricted mainly to the fractures and joints in the limestone and

sandstones. The Bagh beds, where overlain by Deccan Trap are likely to yield groundwater

under confined conditions. The Deccan Trap has given rise to multi-layered stratified

aquifers. Each individual flow comprises two distinct units, namely the upper vesicular

basalt and the lower massive basalt. The massive basalt is hard and compact with primary

porosity but the vesicular basalts exhibit porosity. The movement of groundwater is

therefore controlled by the secondary porosity developed by the presence of fractures and

joints. The paleo-weathering which is invariably observed at depth near the top of every

flow has given rise to good aquifers at depth.

The sandstone is the main aquifers in the Tertiary formations but the limestone also yield

significant quantities of groundwater wherever karstic development have taken place. The

alluvium formations in the western most part of the area do not constitute potential

aquifers on account of inferior quality of water.

CHAPTER –4: Anticipated Environmental Impacts & Mitigation Measures

4.1 IDENTIFICATION OF IMPACTS

Various sources of pollution with respect to wastewater, the flue gas/process emission,

hazardous waste and noise generation along with their qualitative and quantitative analysis

as well as measures taken to control them are discussed herein with details. The network

method has adopted to identify potential impact, which involves understanding of cause-

condition-effect relationship between an activity and environmental parameters. This

method involves the "road map" type of approach to the identification of second and third

order effect. The basic idea is to account for the project activity and identify the type of

impact that could initially occur followed by the identification of secondary and tertiary

impacts.

Identified potential impacts for the various components of the environment, i.e. air, noise,

water, land and socio-economic, are presented in Figure 4.1. It should be noted that in these

illustrations the lines are to be read as "might have an effect on".

4.2 PREDICTIONS AND EVALUATION OF IMPACTS

An impact can be defined as any change in physical, chemical, biological, cultural and/or

socioeconomic environment that can be attributed to activities related to alternatives under

study for meeting the project needs. Impact methodology provides an organized approach

for prediction and assessing these impacts. Scientific techniques and methodologies based

on mathematical modeling are available for studying impacts of various project activities on

environmental parameters.

The nature of the impacts due to said project activities are discussed here in detail. Each

parameters identified in the proceeding chapter, is singularly considered for the anticipated

impact due to various activities listed. The impact is quantified using numerical scores 0, 1,

2, 3, 4 and 5 in increasing order of activity. In order to assess the impact accurately, each

parameter is discussed in detail covering the following:

1) Project activities likely to generate impact

2) Quantification and prediction of impact

4.2.1 WATER ENVIRONMENT

With respect to water environment three aspects are generally considered in EIA, the raw

water availability, consumption and wastewater disposal. The first priority in water quality

assessment is to maintain and restore the desirable level of water quality in general

(Wholesomeness of water).

4.2.1.1 IMPACT DURING CONSTRUCTION PHASE

There are three activities that have potential to cause impact on the water environment viz.

construction activities, abstraction of water for construction and sanitation.

During Construction, drainage pattern and water supply system of overland water flow will

be somewhat changed to the site preparation activities. Potential impacts may be on

surface water quality during this phase could arise from dust emissions (from vehicles and

disturbance of soil).



MITIGATION MEASURES

During construction phase, water requirement for the construction will be met through

GIDC water supply. Sanitary units will be provided for the workers. Waste water to be

generated will be disposed of through septic tank & soak pit. Hence, there is no any impact

on the water environment.

4.2.1.2 Impact during Operation Phase

Water Consumption & Waste Water Generation is given in Table 2.1. Details of ETP are

discussed in Topic 2.3.3.1 of Chapter 2. Overall there won’t be any significant adverse

impact due to proposed activity on the water environment. Ground water and soil will not

get contaminated. With the above, it can be said magnitude of impact will be no significant

adverse impact on surface and ground water or soil quality.

4.2.2 AIR ENVIRONMENT

With respect to air environment, generally considerable aspect in EIA is dispersion of dust

particles and gaseous pollutants in air during construction phase and operation phase.

4.2.2.1 CONSTRUCTION PHASE IMPACTS

Dust will be the main pollutant affecting the ambient air quality of the surrounding area

during the construction phase. Proposed activity will be constructed on open land and that

land is flat and ready for construction. Motor vehicle transportation (to, from and around

the site) particularly the traffic of tracks at the site, material movement into the site will

introduce particulates and other exhaust gases into the local ambient air and there is some

likelihood that during the construction period local air quality may be temporarily affected

by these emissions.



MITIGATION MEASURES

During Construction phase, suspended solids will be controlled by sprinkling of water and by

employing enclosures to construction area to allow the particles to settle down, prior to

discharge. Construction material/s conveyer will ask to cover conveyer to prevent any kind

of dust emissions.

4.2.2.2 OPERATION PHASE IMPACTS

The dispersion of pollutants in atmosphere is a function of several meteorological

parameters viz. temperature, wind speed and direction, mixing depths, inversion level, etc.

A number of models have been developed for the prediction of pollutant concentration at

any point from an emitting source. The Industrial Source Complex – Short Term (ISCST3)

dispersion model is a steady-state Gaussian plume model. It is most widely accepted for its

interpretability. It gives reasonably correct values because this obeys the equation of

continuity and it also takes care of diffusion, which is a random process. For the present

study, this model is used for the prediction of maximum ground level concentration (GLC).

The air emissions at M/s. Prafful Overseas Pvt. Ltd .are SPM, SO2, NOx and HCl. The site

specific and monitored details considered for input data for the software “ISC-AERMOD

View” by Lakes Environmental, Canada for prediction of impact on air environment are

given in Table 4.1. The site-specific hourly meteorological data measured at site is given in

Table 3.5. In order to conduct a refined air dispersion modeling using ISCST3 and ISC-PRIME

short-term air quality dispersion models, the site specific hourly meteorological data

measured at site is pre-processed using the U.S. EPA PCRAMMET and U.S. EPA AERMET

programs. Before starting air dispersion modeling with ISC-AERMOD View, a building

downwash analysis using BPIP View was done. BPIP View is a graphical user interface

designed to speed up the work involved in setting up input data for the U.S. EPA Building

Profile Input Program (BPIP) and Building Profile Input Program – Plume Rise Model

Enhancements (BPIP-PRIME).



The air pollution caused by the gaseous emissions from a single or small group of stacks is a

local phenomenon. Its impacts will occur at a distance ranging from within the immediate

vicinity of the stack to several kilometers away from the stack. Maximum ground level

concentration will occur within this range. All plumes at more downwind distances from the

source by stack emission become so diluted by diffusion in the ambient atmosphere, that

concentrations of pollutants become negligible. The maximum ground level concentration

for different parameters is given in Table 4.2. Isopleths are given in Figure 4.2. Adequate

measures shall be taken to minimize air pollution by providing air pollution control

equipment. Flue gases are discharged from stacks at adequate height (as per GPCB norms).

4.2.3 NOISE ENVIRONMENT

4.2.3.1 CONSTRUCTION PHASE IMPACTS

Construction activities are likely to produce noise up to some considerable extent. During

the construction phase of the project, there will be noise generation from earth moving

equipment/s and material handling traffic/s.

MITIGATION MEASURES

Extensive oiling and lubrication and preventive maintenance of equipment/s shall be carried

out to reduce noise generation at source to the permissible to confine within the

surrounding area of construction site. There will be short term, localized and reversible

impact on ambient noise levels during the construction activities.

4.2.3.2 OPERATION PHASE IMPACTS

During operation phase, main sources of noise pollution in the plant will be diesel generator

and other noise generating unit/s. Vehicular movements during operation phase for

loading/unloading and other transportation activity will also increase noise level. Pump

operators will be generally exposed to higher noise level for short duration. The noise level



within plant is kept less than 85 dB(A). Transport and communication requirement increases

due to operation of plant.

MITIGATION MEASURES

Extensive oiling and lubrication and preventive maintenance shall be carried out to reduce

noise generation at source to the permissible limit. Manufacturers/suppliers of major noise

generating equipment/machines like compressors, generators will be asked to take required

measures for minimizing the noise levels generated by machines by using noise absorbing

material for various enclosures or using appropriate design/ technology for

fabricating/assembling the machines. However, at place where noise levels can exceed the

permissible limit, Earplugs and Earmuffs will be provided to those working in such area.

Audiometric tests will be conducted periodically for the employees working close to the high

noise sources. Adequate plantation will be done to control noise level at site.

4.2.4 LAND USE AND SOIL QUALITY

4.2.4.1 CONSTRUCTION PHASE IMPACT AND MITIGATION MEASURES

Proposed activity will be located on existing flat terrain, no significant topographical change

is expected due to construction activities. The construction of building will help in fixation of

soil, thereby reducing the soil erosion. Some construction operations shall disturb the soil

profile, but the impact will be insignificant. The plant site is suitably located considering

availability of transportation, communication, residence and manpower. The project site

won’t involve displacement of any population. Electricity, water, roads, all basic amenities

and infrastructure will be available at the site. There will be no change in existing land use

pattern, forest cover or vegetation in surrounding area. During Construction phase,

excavated earth shall be used for back filling and greenbelt development and Construction

debris shall be re-used for backfilling and internal road development.



4.2.4.2 OPERATION PHASE IMPACT

The source of land/soil pollution from operation phase will be raw material/s, finished

product/s, hazardous/solid waste/s. Proper transportation will be required to prevent the

soil contamination.

MITIGATION MEASURES

• Raw material/s, finished product/s will be by road only with required packing and labeling.

• Handle and management solid/hazardous waste storage and disposal will be as per

Hazardous and Other Wastes (Management & Transboundary Movement) Rules, 2016.

4.2.4.3 TRANSPORTATION OF HAZARDOUS WASTE

Transportation of waste is also very important aspect in hazardous waste management

system; hence special care will be to be taken during transportation of hazardous waste.

We’ll check that transporter of the TSDF facility complies with the directives specified by

MoEF, Govt. of India under the Hazardous and Other Wastes (Management &

Transboundary Movement) Rules, 2016. Each hazardous waste will be transported

separately in suitable container so that won’t react with the other waste. During

transportation, the container will be closed from all side and opened at the time of disposal

of the waste only. Every container will be labeled with 6” letters in English and Gujarati

languages. Each container will be inspected at least once in a week for any leakage or

spillage problem. The transporter will be made aware about the type of wastes, quantities,

nature of material. Only trained person will be allowed to handle the hazardous waste and

strictly observe all safety and security rules and regulations enforced. Person handled

hazardous waste will be equipped with safety devices like goggles, gloves, mask, fire

extinguisher, gum boots, etc.

4.2.5 INFRASTRUCTURE AND SERVICES

The plant is located in a well-developed industrial area, which has all essential facilities such

as water, power, fuel, post, telecommunication, bank, etc. M/s. Prafful Overseas Pvt. Ltd.will

get water from GIDC water supply. The power requirement of will be met through DGVCL.



The transportation of raw material/s and finished product/s will by road only. As stated

earlier, the site is near to state highway no. 6. As a result of proposed project, there will be a

marginal increase in transportation activity as compared to present total traffic upto plant

premises. As a result of development of industrial estate, the neighboring areas have

developed for commercial use. The infrastructure services e.g. roads, state transport, post

and telegraph, communication, education and medical facilities, housing, etc. have

improved in the surrounding areas in recent years.

4.2.6 ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD

Raw material/s shall be transported by road and shall be stored in the plant premises. On

site emergency plan has prepared for storage and handling of hazardous chemicals. This

report has prepared with the consideration of hazards associated with the chemicals and

care shall be taken for all aspects of environmental hazards. The project proponent has

considered all the safety aspects in planning, designing and operation of the plant as per

standard practices. Hence, no adverse impact on this account is anticipated.

4.2.7 HOUSING

Enough number of dwellings is available in nearby towns and villages for accommodating

extra workforce. On neighboring towns or villages, the impact on this account is minimal.

4.2.8 ECOLOGY

The impact due to operation of the project and its activities on the ecological parameters

like natural vegetation, cropping pattern, fisheries and aquatic life, forests and species

diversity could be summarized as below.

4.2.8.1 NATURAL VEGETATION

The industry will develop green belt on the surrounding periphery and it will be further

strengthen. Since the effluents and emissions generated from the project activities shall be

treated and disposed as per the EMP provisions, adverse impact over any of the ecological

components of the environment is reduced to minimum.



4.2.8.2 CROPS

Since, the project is on a non-agricultural (industrial) land, it shall not alter the crop

production of the area. Further, the necessary environmental protection measures have

been planned under EMP e.g. air pollution control systems are and shall be designed to take

care of even emergency releases of the gaseous pollutants like PM, SO2, NOx, HCl and

regular environmental surveillance shall be done, so as not to have any short-term or

cumulative effect on the crops and the natural vegetation of the area.

4.2.8.3 FISHERIES AND AQUATIC LIFE

Since effluents and emissions generated from the project activities shall be treated and

disposed as per the EMP provisions, proposed project shall not envisaged any adverse effect

on fisheries and aquatic life.

4.2.8.4 AESTHETIC ENVIRONMENT

The proposed activities and further plantation will enhance the aesthetic environment.

4.2.8.5 DEMOGRAPHY, ECONOMICS, SOCIOLOGY AND HUMAN SETTLEMENT

Employment:

M/s. Prafful Overseas Pvt. Ltd. will give direct employment to local people based on

qualification and requirement. In addition to direct employment, indirect employment shall

generate ancillary business to some extent for the local population.

There is a positive effect due to improved communication and health services, which have

lead to economic prosperity, better educational opportunities and access to better health

and family welfare facilities. There has been a beneficial effect on human settlement due to

employment opportunities from various industries in region in addition to employment

generated by propose project.



Local quality of life will be improved. This factor combined with all other mitigation

measures, like proper treatment and disposal of hazardous waste; liquid effluent and

gaseous emission, will be minimized the adverse impact on ecology and has a beneficial

impact on human settlement and employment opportunities. There shall be beneficial

impact on the local socio-economic environment. There shall be no displacement of any

population in plant area. Hence, there is no permanent impact on this account. The

increasing industrial activity will boost the commercial and economical status of the locality

up to some extent.

Socio-Economic Environment

Environmental Impact Assessment is a study or an estimate of the probable positive or

negative impact a proposed project could have on the environment, consisting of natural,

social and economic aspects. An assessment of socio-economic environment forms an

integral part of an EIA study. Therefore, base-line information for the same was collected

during the study period. The base-line S.E. data collected for the study region has been

identified in four major indicators namely- Demography, civic amenities, Economy and social

culture.

Education:

Presently, every village has a primary school up to VIII std. and for higher education, the

students, both boys and girls, have to go to Ankleshwar & Bharuch. With increase in

population due to industrial growth, the surrounding villages may start higher education.

Not only male students but female students can also take advantage of the same and

thereby, percentage of literate population in the local area may increase.

Transport:

With increased employment opportunities and higher economic status of the local

community and with an increase in market conditions, transport facilities by way of buses,

two-wheeler & four-wheeler vehicles will develop in future. Thus, overall development of

the local community and their health is likely to become a matter of fact with the co-



operation and support of industrial organizations of the local area. To sum up, it could be

said that there will be a positive effect due to improved communication and health services,

which would lead to economic prosperity, better educational opportunities and access to

better health and family welfare facilities. There will be a beneficial effect on human

settlement due to employment opportunities from various industrial establishments in local

area in addition to employment generated by proposed project. There is likely to be a

beneficial impact on the local Socio-Economic environment. There shall be no displacement

of any population in the plant area. The increasing industrial activity will boost up the

commercial and economical status of the locality to some extent.

1. This project is on non-agricultural (industrial) land and therefore, it is not likely to

alter the crop production.

2. The manufacturing unit will be adopted comprehensive environmental plan

covering several environment protection measures, to reduce the environmental

pollution resulting from the project.

To control the emission from stacks, the company will regularly examine, inspect and test its

emission to make sure that the emission will be below the permissible limit. With this, the

status of sanitation and community health of the area would not change.

4.2.8.6 FOREST, NATIONAL PARKS / SANCTUARIES

There is no reserved forest & no national park or sanctuary within 10 km radius of the plant.

There shall be no impact on the same.

4.2.8.7 PLACES OF ARCHAEOLOGICAL/HISTORICAL/RELIGIOUS/TOURIST INTEREST

There is no place of archaeological, historical, religious or tourist interest within the study

area i.e. 10 km radius of plant site. Hence, there shall be no impact on places of interest.



4.3 MATRIX REPRESENTATION

The parameters discussed are presented in the form of a matrix in Table 4.4. The impact

matrix relating the parameters to the activities during operation phase is presented in Table

4.5. The quantification of impact is done using numerical scores 0 to 5 as per the following

criteria.

Score Severity criteria

0 No impact

1 No damage

2 Slight/ Short-term effect

3 Occasional reversible effect

4 Irreversible/ Long-term effect

5 Permanent damage

The scores for various parameters and activities are presented in Table 4.6.

4.3.1 CUMULATIVE IMPACT CHART

The total negative impact of various activities on any one parameter is represented as a

cumulative score and the cumulative scores of various parameters are given in the form of a

cumulative impact chart presented in Table 4.7. Any particular parameter having an

individual score greater than 5 or cumulative score of 20 implies serious effects due to the

project and calls for suitable mitigation measures. It is evident from the matrices that the

resultant impact is beneficial to the local population and due to export (and import

substitution) the resultant impact is beneficial to our country.
