Summary of Public hearing -

The Public Hearing Committee appealed all to raise suggestion or objections for the

expansion of the project. As there was no suggestions or objections, Chairman of the Public

Hearing Committee while concluding the meeting reviewed the points raised during the

meeting.

Chairman of the Public Hearing Committee informed that –

• As per the presentation, to control air pollution, stack height of process scrubber will be

increased to 12 Meter. The boiler stack will be increased by 10.0 Meter. There will increase

in the requirement of water of 48.63 CMD after expansion. Naturally, there will increase in

industrial effluent of 12.28 CMD. The domestic effluent will be increased by 4.4 CMD.

The project officials are promising that the total industrial effluent after treatment will

recycled in the process. The domestic effluent after treatment will be used for green belt

development.

• The suggestion is received that there should be display of noise and air pollution and the

complaint register should be maintained at CETP. Both suggestions have been welcomed

and MPCB officials are directed to take follow up for the same.

• As per the Rule, the project has already obtained Membership of CHWTSDF, Ranjangaon.

It is mandatory to the project officials to send their hazardous wastes to CHWTSDF for

further treatment and disposal;

12


• Some local people raised that the wells at downstream are polluted due to discharge of

untreated effluent by other factories industries. The TDS of well water observed to be 3,000

mg/l– 4,000 mg/l, due to which agriculture fields have become barren. Here, this industry

promises that the project will be Zero Liquid Discharge;

• But MPCB officials and other departments should be always be vigil while carrying the

periodical surveillance;

The name of Pandharewadi should be included while preparing final EIA report for carrying

the work under the CER Fund. Certain funds should also allotted to Pandharewadi;

• MPCB officials will visit other outside for inspection, after the hearing.

• Chairman of the Committee further informed that this information the suggestions, objections

raised during the meeting will be sent along with minutes of meeting, final EIA report to

Expert Committee of MoEFCC, GoI. The Expert Committee will take note of the same while

taking further action.

• Chairman of the Committee mentioned in general that there were number of pollution

problems in the MIDC Kurkumbh area. But as this project proponent is going to implement

Environment Management Plan wholeheartedly, it will be towards positive steps. There is no

objections to this project. But the project proponent should also follow the strict standards as

prescribed by MPCB and other Competent Authorities.

Chairman of the Public Hearing Committee declared the meeting is concluded.

The meeting ended extending thanks to the Chair.

2. Revised CER based on the issues raised during the public hearing and emerged in the

social impact assessment covering the activities, timelines and budgetary requirement

should be submitted.

Action Plan for CER Activity

In order to carry out the CER activity it was decided that the proponent would provide basic

facilities in the area of safe drinking water, educational aid for the nearby Panchayat Schools

of Kurkumbh and Pandharewadi village, also the proponent had planned to install solar street

lights in consultation with the panchayat of Kurkumbh and Pandharewadi Villages.

During the survey it was observed that the schools lacked in basic facilities such as safe

drinking water, sanitation and other essential facilities such as computer, projector, etc and

also the villages lacked street lights which are essential for the villagers at the time of night.

Keeping in view the issues and problems raised in the public hearing by the villagers of

Kurkumbh and Pandharewadi, proponent plans to carry out analysis of ground water & soil

and to carry out health checkup in consultation with the panchayat of the above mentioned

villages. Thus, keeping the above factors in mind the CER for the proponent is presented in

Although Maharashtra is one of the affluent states in India with the highest per capita income, and

contributes over 15% of the country's national income and 40% of the tax revenues, having one of the

largest industrial economies, still the benefits of development have not reached in every corner of the

society. The availability well being of any individual can be ensured by providing timely supply of food,

primary health care and adequate education. Out of these food and education is receiving attention to

some extent from the government but that in the area of healthcare and medical supplies is yet a

challenge to for the state.

In order to bridge the gap of medical and health care facilities the proponent plans to carry out health

checkups for the villager of the above mentioned villages.

For the purpose of this as per the commitment around 2.2 % of the total project cost is planned to be

engaged in the social welfare. A road map for the same is provided in the above segment.

against the proposed green belt of 11,825 sqm area. The density of the plant to be increased as per

the guidelines of the Ministry. Selection of the Trees/Plant as per the CPCB guidelines.

Action Plan for Green Belt Development

Generally a thick green belt developed along the factory boundary helps to arrest/capture dust emissions

from escaping beyond the factory boundary and also to minimize the noise intensity propagating out of

the factory premises along with improving the aesthetics of project site.

Design and development of green belt

Design: Thick green belt will be developed along the boundary of the project plot as per the Standard

TOR prescribed by MoEF & CC for Synthetic Organic Chemical industries and the project specific

TOR granted by Expert Appraisal Committee (EAC) - Violation Committee during 1st EAC meeting dt.

22nd

June 2017 and additional compliances given by the Expert Appraisal Committee (EAC) - Violation

Committee in its 15th

meeting dtd 27th

November, 2018.

Area allocation for green belt: Total area under green belt will be 35124.3 sq. m., out of which there is

an existing developed green belt of area 7164.5 sq. m. and additionally 27959.8 sq . m of green belt will

be developed.

Area consideration for growth of individual tree: The area assumption for individual large/medium

size growth achieving tree is 2.6 m x 2.6 m = 6.76 sq. m. as per the Standard TOR prescribed by MoEF

& CC for Pesticides and Pesticide Specific Intermediates manufacturing industry.

Selection of plant species: The plants to be planted are selected considering the floral scenario as

observed in the study area during the baseline assessment study (preferably native fast growing, non

fruiting plants having large leaf area).

Details of existing green belt

Shogun Organics Ltd. is located on Plot No. D-18, MIDC, Kurkumbh, Tal. Daund, Dist. Pune, Pin -

413802 which admeasures an area of 1,06,384.00 sq. m. the said plot has been in use since 2008 for

64


manufacture of Pesticides accordingly along with these existing operations green belt development has

been done in an area of 7,164.5 sq. m.

The exiting green belt is developed along the southern boundary of the project plot. A total of 1,059.00

plants were planted.

March, 2017, The Environmental (Protection) Rules, 1986 and its amendments, other

Notifications, O.M and office orders relevant to the said activity issued by the MoEF & CC

from time to time. Permissions/ limits issued by the MPCB under the consent to operate,

Circulars/Orders issued by CPCB/MPCB from time to time.

Interaction/ Cross verification of reports & notices of relevant stakeholders.

Interactions were held with the Gram Panchayat Members, MIDC Kurkumbh office to

enquire for any violations carried out by M/s Shogun Organics Ltd. particularly by illegal

release of effluents and dumping of hazardous waste.

Visit Reports of Factory Inspector, MPCB officers were checked to investigate any non-

compliance.

Assessments of previous compliances with respect to violation of statutory guidelines

M/s Shogun Organics Ltd. has received directions under section – 5 of the Environment

(Protection) Act, 1986 for violation of provisions of the EIA Notification, 2006 on 18.04.2016

from MoEF & CC dated 05.02.2016. Based on the MoEF letter, MPCB sent a direction of

closure. Industry has been closed since April, 2016. The same has been verified by MPCB visit

reports dated 08.08.2016 and 17.11.2017. The industry has not done any product expansion

production has been done since the first consent to operate was obtained by M/s Shogun

Organics Ltd.

The company has been regularly doing compliances namely submission of water cess,

submission of Form – 4, Form – 10 (Previous – Form – 13) and Form – V and the same have

been submitted to the MPCB.

Damage Assessment –

A. Construction Phase -

The project proponent had obtained consent to establish from the MPCB dated 3rd

February, 1995

vide no – BO/U-BHIMA/C-168 dated 03.02.1995 for the manufacturing of chrysanthemic acid and

allethrolone to the quantity of 6 MT/M each. The investment of the project was less than 1 crore

during the establishment, which do not attract violation of EIA Notification, 1994. The

construction work of plant was started in March 2007 after obtaining water connection from

MIDC, Kurkumbh. but production was not started due to working capital problem. The first

consent to operate was obtained vide no – ROP/E-25/CC/PUNE/5/ dated 13.06.2008. The

construction materials were procured from local vendors from Patas and Varvand villages.

The major activities, ecological damage and mitigation measures are tabulated below –

can be seen that the villages of

Kurkumbh and Pandharewdi may be

affected due to the dust emissions as

these villages are located in the

downwind direction. The predicted

incremental concentration of TPM at

Kurkumbh village would be 10 µg/m3

Damage Assessment in operational phase –

Data Collection – For assessing the damage it was essential to identify the effects of various

pollutants namely stack emissions, process emissions, effluent, hazardous waste, noise on

various components of environment (air, water, soil, ecology & biodiversity, socio

economy.)

Analysis of ambient air, noise ground water, surface water, soil in the 10 km study area was

already done while collecting the baseline data. The findings showed that all the values are

within MPCB limits.

However being an insecticide manufacturing unit it was important to find whether there has

been any releases of effluents/chemicals in the nearby areas.

Thus. the soil samples were collected in the plot area and all 8 soil monitoring locations from

the study area for comprehensive analysis with respect to correlate the parameters with

product and raw materials used by M/s Shogun Organics Ltd was done to ascertain any

effluent releases or hazardous waste disposals in the area. After interacting with the technical

persons of project, site visits and detailed discussions with the FAE’s the EC is of the opinion

that damage assessment can be identified and quantified based on the analysis reports of soil

samples and ground water samples. The results for plot specific soil analysis and soil analysis

in study area are shown below.

Additionally, ground water at 2 locations have been analyzed for presence for raw materials

used and products manufactured by M/s Shogun Organics Ltd. The ground water monitoring

station are shown in the Table-3 below.

Comparison of LULC from google imagery pre construction and post construction

phase

As per the oldest available google imagery shown in Fig – 5 and 6, it can be seen that the

land cover is of open scrub type and there is no thick vegetation as such in the area

surrounding the project.

It is evident from the older google imagery dated 20.11.2017 that there was very less

vegetation on the plot which had to be cleared, some shrubs and grass were cleared off the

plot. The latest google imagery is shown in Fig no – 7

The latest google imagery suggests that the project proponent has carried out plantations in

the south direction and there is not much alteration in the tree cover as compared to the

earlier image.

Remediation Planning/EMP & Implementation

The study of baseline values (air, water, noise, soil, Ecology and biodiversity, socio economy) has

been done and identified and quantified the area of damage from the baseline study report and

interacting with the stakeholders, proponent and inputs received from FAE’s during the site visit.

The impact of operation is more on the industrial land within the factory premises compared to the

surrounding study area. The baseline values of air, water, noise, are well within the norms

prescribed by CPCB. Therefore, impact has been not quantified.

The industry is engaged in the manufacturing in technical grade insecticides and intermediates

which is highly polluting activity, the raw materials used for the manufacturing and the process

involved is hazardous in nature. The insecticides manufactured by the industry are highly toxic to

acquatic organisms. (fish and invertebrates), also if these chemicals come in contact with humans

by means of ingestion or inhalation or contact they can cause harm to humans. The impact of

violation is physically observed on the land of the company near ETP area and production area

where the contact of pollutants are frequently observed during the manufacturing process. The soil

sample analysis near the ETP and within the plant premises has been done to identify the

contamination due to handling of raw material and exposure to production activity. The analysis

reports are summarized in table no – 3

From the analysis reports it is observed that the soil is not contaminated, however during site visit

by FAE’s physically, the area of impact has been identified and quantified to assess the damage

control.

The ETP is located approx.20 meters from the Intermediate Plant – III and IV. The effluent which

is being generated from the manufacturing activity is diverted through closed pipeline up to ETP for

treatment. It is decided that 20 metres (l) x 1 metres (w) x 0.9 metres (d) soil area to be removed

and replaced with fresh soil and concreting the area as a part of damage control remediation plan.

The area quantified and cost of remediation is summarized as below –
