4.0 Project Proposal

M/s Alka Laboratories Pvt. Ltd. has proposed expansion of Drug manufacturing unit from 2

existing product to 12 proposed at Plot no. B-1124 RIICO industrial area, phase-III Bhiwadi,

Tehsil-Tijara, District- Alwar, State-Rajasthan. The proposed project site is located in the notified

industrial estate (RIICO Industrial area Phase 3 ) and falls in Category 5(f)-B but due to interstate

boundary at a distance 1.6km in NE, of Rajasthan and Haryana, the project will appraised in

Category ‘A’ of Environment Impact Assessment Notification 14th September 2006 and its

subsequent amendments.The capacity of proposed project activity has been tabulated below

Table 1.1:

Nimesulide- Nimesulide is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) with pain

medication and fever reducing properties. Its approved indications are the treatment of acute pain, the

symptomatic treatment of osteoarthritis, and primary dysmenorrhoea in adolescents and adults above

12 years old. It has a multifactorial mode of action and is characterized by a fast onset of action.

It works by blocking the production of prostaglandins (a chemical associated with pain), thereby

relieving pain and inflammation.

Pantoprazole Sodium - Pantoprazole sodium is a proton pump inhibitor indicated for the

following: Short-Term Treatment of Erosive Esophagitis Associated with Gastroesophageal Reflux

Disease (GERD). Maintenance of Healing of Erosive Esophagitis.

Diclofenac Sodium - Diclofenac (sold under a number of trade names) is a nonsteroidal anti-

inflammatory drug (NSAID) taken or applied to reduce inflammation and as an analgesic reducing

pain in certain conditions. Diclofenac is used to treat pain, inflammatory disorders, and dysmenorrhea.

Diclofenac Potassium- Diclofenac (sold under a number of trade names) is a nonsteroidal anti-

inflammatory drug (NSAID) taken or applied to reduce inflammation and as an analgesic reducing

pain in certain conditions. Diclofenac is used to treat pain, inflammatory disorders, and dysmenorrhea.

Ornidazole - Ornidazole is a drug that cures some protozoan infections. After passive

absorption into bacterium cell, the nitro group of ornidazole is reduced to amine group by ferrodoxin

type redox system. The formation of redox intermediate intracellular metabolites is believed to be the

key component of microorganism killing for Ornidazole.

Mometasone Furoate- This medication is used to treat skin conditions such as eczema,

psoriasis, allergies, and rash. Mometasone decreases swelling (inflammation), itching, and redness.

Mometasone is a medium-strength corticosteroid. This medication is available in several forms

including cream, ointment, and lotion.

Aceclofenac - Aceclofenac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) analog

of Diclofenac. It is used for the relief of pain and inflammation in rheumatoid

arthritis, osteoarthritis and ankylosing spondylitis. The drug works by inhibiting the action of

cyclooxygenase (COX) that is involved in the production of prostaglandins (PG) which is accountable

for pain, swelling, inflammation and fever.

Mefenamic Acid - Mefenamic acid is a member of the anthranilic acid derivatives (or fenamate)

class of NSAID drugs, and is used to treat mild to moderate pain, including menstrual pain, and is

sometimes used to prevent migraines associated with menstruation

Mecobalamin- Mecobalamin is a cobalamin, a form of vitamin B12. Methylcobalamin is

equivalent physiologically to vitamin B12, and can be used to prevent or treat pathology arising from a

lack of vitamin B12 (vitamin B12 deficiency), such as pernicious anemia. Methylcobalamin is also used

in the treatment of peripheral neuropathy, diabetic neuropathy, and as a preliminary treatment

for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

Disulfiram - Disulfiram (sold under the trade names Antabuse and Antabus) is a drug discovered

in the 1920s used to support the treatment of chronic alcoholism by producing an acute sensitivity

to ethanol (drinking alcohol). Disulfiram works by inhibiting the enzyme acetaldehyde

dehydrogenase, which means that many of the effects of a "hangover" are felt immediately after

alcohol is consumed.

Ofloxacin- Ofloxacin is an antibiotic useful for the treatment of a number of bacterial infections.

When taken by mouth or injection into a vein this includes pneumonia, cellulitis, urinary tract

infections, prostatitis, plague and certain types of infectious diarrhea. Other uses, along with other

medications, include multidrug resistant tuberculosis. An eye drop may be used for a superficial

bacterial infection of the eye and an ear drop may be used for otitis media when there is a hole in

the ear drum. Ofloxacin was patented in 1980 and approved for medical use in 1985. It is on the World

Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines, the most effective and safe medicines needed in

a health system.

Deflazacort - Deflazacort (trade name Emflaza or Calcort among others) is a glucocorticoid used

as an anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressant.

6 Aminopenicillin- 6-APA is the chemical compound (+)-6-aminopenicillanic acid. 6-APA is the

core of penicillins. It is obtained from the fermentation brew of the Penicillium mold and used as the

main starting block for the preparation of numerous semisynthetic penicillins

Trimethoprim- Trimethoprim (TMP) is an antibiotic used mainly in the treatment of bladder

infections. Other uses include for middle ear infections and travelers' diarrhea.

With sulfamethoxazole or dapsone it may be used for Pneumocystis pneumonia in people

with HIV/AIDS. It is taken by mouth.

Common side effects include nausea, changes in taste, and rash. Rarely it may result in blood problems

such as not enough platelets or white blood cells. May cause sun sensitivity. There is evidence of

potential harm during pregnancy in some animals but not humans. It works by

blocking folate metabolism via dihydrofolate reductase in some bacteria which results in their death.

Trimethoprim was first used in 1962. It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential

Medicines, the most effective and safe medicines needed in a health system. It is available as a generic

medication and is not very expensive.[6] In the United States 10 days of treatment is about 21 USD. It is

primarily used in the treatment of urinary tract infections, although it may be used against any

susceptible aerobic bacterial species. It may also be used to treat and prevent Pneumocystis

jiroveci pneumonia. It is generally not recommended for the treatment of anaerobic infections such

as Clostridium difficile colitis (the leading cause of antibiotic-induced diarrhea). Trimethoprim has

been used in trials to treat retinitis.

Resistance to trimethoprim is increasing, but it is still a first line antibiotic in many countries.

5.0 Risk Assessment

5.1 Risk Assessment & Damage Control

Risk assessment is the determination of quantitative and qualitative value of risk related to a

concrete situation and a recognized threat. Activities requiring assessment of risk due to

occurrence of most probable instances of hazard and accident are both onsite and off-site.

5.2 Maximum Credible Accident Analysis (MCA)

Increasing fatal accidents that have occurred during transportation, Handling, operation, Process

have to be taken into consideration and, therefore have prompted the Ministry of Environment

and Forests & Climate Change (MoEF&CC), Government of India, to make Risk Assessment a

mandatory requirement for all Industry sector.

MCA stands for Maximum Credible Accident or in other words, an accident with maximum

damage distance, which is believed to be probable. MCA analysis does not include quantification

of the probability of occurrence of an accident. In practice the selection of accident scenarios for

MCA analysis is carried out on the basis of engineering judgment and expertise in the field of risk

analysis especially in accident analysis.

5.2.1 Methodology of MCA Analysis

The MCA analysis involves ordering and ranking of various sections in terms of potential

vulnerability. The data requirements for MCA analysis are:

Operating manual

Flow diagram and P&Id diagrams

Detailed design parameters

Physical and chemical properties of all the chemicals

Detailed plant layout

Detailed area layout

Past accident data Analysis

5.2.2 Following steps are involved in the MCA analysis:

Identification of potential hazardous sections and representative failure cases

Visualization of release scenarios considering type and the quantity of the hazardous

material

Damage distance computations for the released cases at different wind velocities and

atmospheric stability classes for heat radiations and pressure waves

6.7 Impact due to Chemical Exposure

Standard System for the Identification of the Hazards of Materials for Emergency Response" is a

standard maintained by the U.S.-based National Fire Protection Association. "fire diamond" used

by emergency personnel to quickly and easily identify the risks posed by hazardous materials.

The four divisions are typically color-coded with red indicating flammability, blue indicating

level of health hazard, yellow for chemical reactivity, and white containing codes for

special hazards. Each of health, flammability and reactivity is rated on a scale from 0 (no

hazard) to 4 (severe risk).

The numeric values in the first column are designated in the standard by "Degree of Hazard"

using Arabic numerals (0, 1, 2, 3, 4)

own resources. To put it in other words, it is the occurrence of a sudden mishap/calamity/grave

occurrence that disrupts the basic fabric and normal functioning of a society (or community)

Earthquake

The seismic hazard map of India was updated in 2000 (6) by the Bureau of Indian Standards

(BIS). Apart from the merging of Zones I and II, there are no major changes in the new hazard

http://asc-india.org/seismi/seis-rajasthan.htm#6



map with respect to the state of Rajasthan, as compared with the previous 1984 BIS map.

Western parts of the districts of Barmer and Sirohi as well as northern sections of Alwar district

lie in Zone IV, where the maximum intensity could reach VIII (MSK). The remaining areas of

Barmer and Sirohi districts, as well as the districts of Bikaner, Jaiselmer and Sirohi lie in Zone III.

The north-eastern districts of Jhunjhunu, Sikar, Bharatpur and the rest of Alwar also lie in Zone

III. The maximum intensity expected in these areas would be around MSK VII. The rest of the

state, including the capital, Jaipur, lie in Zone II, where the maximum intensity expected would be

around MSK VI. It must be noted that BIS estimates the hazard, based in part, on previous known

earthquakes. Since the earthquake database in India is still incomplete, especially with regards to

earthquakes prior to the historical period (before 1800 A.D.), these zones offer a rough guide of

the earthquake hazard in any particular region and need to be regularly updated Earthquake

zonation map is given below in Fig No: 1.3.

Major Earth Quake History in near by area

Though the state of Rajasthan has not had a major earthquake in recent years, small to moderate

earthquake have been felt in the state. Several faults have been identified in this region out of

which many show evidence of movement (3) during the Holocene epoch. The Cambay Graben (3)

terminates in the south-western part of the state. The Konoi Fault (3) near Jaiselmer trends in a

north-south direction and was associated with the 1991 Jaiselmer earthquake. Several active

faults criss-cross the Aravalli range and lie parallel to each other. The most prominent of them is

the north-south trending Sardar Shahr Fault (3) and the Great Boundary Fault (3) which runs

along the Chambal River and then continues in the same direction into Uttar Pradesh. However, it

must be stated that proximity to faults does not necessarily translate into a higher hazard as

compared to areas located further away, as damage from earthquakes depends on numerous

factors such as subsurface geology as well as adherence to the building codes.

parts of Madhya Pradesh causing widespread minor damage as well as one injur

Fig No: 1.3. Earth Quake Zonation Map

Emergency recovery plan has been considered by the emergency management team as per the

situation and site conditions as follows in Table No 1.5. Earthquakes usually give no warning at

all. Consider following in Pre & Post Disaster Phases

Before the earthquake:

Always keep the following in a designated place: bottled drinking water, nonperishable

food, and first-aid kit, torch-light and battery-operated radio with extra batteries.



Teach family members how to turn off electricity, gas, etc.

Identify places in the house that can provide cover during an earthquake.

It may be easier to make long distance calls during an earthquake.

Identify an out-of town relative or friend as your family’s emergency contact. If the

family members get separated after the earthquake and are not able to contact each

other, they should contact the designated relative/friend. The address and phone

number of the contact person/relative should be with all the family members.

Safeguard your house

Consider retrofitting your house with earthquake-safety measures \Reinforcing the

foundation and frame could make your house quake resistant. You may consult a

reputable contractor and follow building codes.

Kutcha buildings can also be retrofitted and strengthened.

During quake:

Earthquakes give no warning at all. Sometimes, a loud rumbling sound might signal

its arrival a few seconds ahead of time. Those few seconds could give you a chance

to move to a safer location. Here are some tips for keeping safe during a quake.

Take cover. Go under a table or other sturdy furniture; kneel, sit, or stay close to the

floor. Hold on to furniture legs for balance. Be prepared to move if your cover moves.

If no sturdy cover is nearby, kneel or sit close to the floor next to a structurally sound

interior wall. Place your hands on the floor for balance.

Do not stand in doorways. Violent motion could cause doors to slam and causeserious

injuries. You may also be hit be flying objects.

Move away from windows, mirrors, bookcases and other unsecured heavy objects.

If you are in bed, stay there and cover yourself with pillows and blankets

Do not run outside if you are inside. Never use the lift.

If you are living in a kutcha house, the best thing to do is to move to an open area

where there are no trees, electric or telephone wires.

If outdoors:

Move into the open, away from buildings, streetlights, and utility wires. Once in the

open, stay there until the shaking stops.

If your home is badly damaged, you will have to leave. Collect water, food, medicine,

other essential items and important documents before leaving.



Avoid places where there are loose electrical wires and do not touch metal objects that

are in touch with the loose wires.

Do not re-enter damaged buildings and stay away from badly damaged structures.

If in a moving vehicle:

Move to a clear area away from buildings, trees, overpasses, or utility wires, stop,and

stay in the vehicle. Once the shaking has stopped, proceed with caution.

Avoid bridges or ramps that might have been damaged by the quake.

After the quake:

Here are a few things to keep in mind after an earthquake. The caution you display in

the aftermath can be essential for your personal safety.

Wear shoes/chappals to protect your feet from debris

After the first tremor, be prepared for aftershocks. Though less intense, aftershocks

cause additional damages and may bring down weakened structures. Aftershocks

can occur in the first hours, days, weeks, or even months after the quake.

Check for fire hazards and use torchlight’s instead of candles or lanterns.

If the building you live in is in a good shape after the earthquake, stay inside and listen

for radio advises. If you are not certain about the damage to your building, evacuate

carefully. Do not touch downed power line.

Help injured or trapped persons. Give first aid where appropriate. Do not move seriously

injured persons unless they are in immediate danger of further injury. In such cases, call

for help.

Remember to help your neighbours who may require special assistance-infants, the

elderly, and people with disabilities.

Listen to a battery-operated radio for the latest emergency information.

Stay out of damaged buildings.

Return home only when authorities say it is safe. Clean up spilled medicines, bleaches or

gasoline or other flammable liquids immediately. Leave the area if you smell gas or

fumes from other chemicals. Open closet and cupboard doors cautiously.

if you smell gas or hear hissing noise, open windows and quickly leave the building.

Turn off the switch on the top of the gas cylinder.

Look for electrical system damages - if you see sparks, broken wires, or if you smell

burning of amber, turn off electricity at the main fuse box. If you have to step in water to

get to the fuse box, call an electrician first for advice.



Check for sewage and water lines damage. If you suspect sewage lines are damaged,

avoid using the toilets. If water pipes are damaged, avoid using water from the tap.

Use the telephone only for emergency calls.

In case family members are separated from one another during an earthquake (a real

possibility during the day when adults are at work and children are at school), develop a

plan for reuniting after the disaster. Ask an out of state / district relative or friend to

serve as the “family contact”. Make sure everyone in the family knows the name, address,

and phone number(s) of the contact person (s).

The contingency actions during storm shall be based on the weather forecasts obtained from

meteorological stations and the local meteorological department. Some of the important actions

to be carried out are as follows:

Prior to Storm

Communication with the local meteorological department.

Maintain distances from storm in order to execute preparatory actions in a shorter time.

Considering the consequences about the emergency might have on operations and

personnel.

Review all operations carefully to ensure that systems in jeopardy are taken care of or shut

Ensure the readiness of first aiders, emergency vehicles, medical centre, medicines etc.

Metallic sheets, loose materials, empty drums and other light objects shall be properly

secured.

Flush the drainage systems.

During Storm

Remain calm.

Avoid going outdoors.

Do not seal the office completely as the suction created by the difference in atmospheric

pressure inside and outside can rip open a window or door by breaking window glass

panes.

After the Storm

Do not touch electric lines.

Stay away from the disaster area.

Take special precautions in driving vehicles since the under-pavement could cave in due to

the weight of automobile.

Flood

There is no major scenario of Flood in India. Zonation Map of India are given below in Fig No.1.4.

Drought

Rajasthan State Action Plan on Climate Change has brought out some alarming facts about the

water situation in the state. According to the report, the state has the highest probability of

drought occurrence in the country. It also falls within areas having greatest climate sensitivity,

maximum vulnerability and lowest adaptive capacity. The Climate Change Agenda for Rajasthan

(CCAR) listed a set of priorities for policy and action with respect to adaptation and mitigation for

2010-2014. Keeping that in view, a steering committee has been formed, headed by the chief

secretary and principal secretaries of various key departments as members to monitor the

implementation of various actions proposed under the Rajasthan Environment Mission.

The Climate Change Agenda for Rajasthan (CCAR) listed a set of priorities for policy and

committee has been formed, headed by the chief secretary and principal secretaries of various

key departments as members to monitor the implementation of various actions proposed under

the Rajasthan Environment Mission. None of the towns in the state, except Jaipur, have sewage

collection, treatment and disposal system. Hence, a lot needs to be done after the Central

Pollution Control Board (CPCB) has identified highly polluting industries in the state which

includes textiles, cement, distilleries, fertilizers, pharmaceuticals, and thermal power plants.



Places like Kota, Alwar, Udaipur, Jodhpur, Pali, Balotra, Sanaganer, Bhilwara, Jhotwara and Bagru

need to address industrial water pollution in the state.

Fires

Annually, fires destroy thousands of houses especially in summer, in the rural areas of the State.

Also fire accidents are a common occurrence in the urban areas. Hence Appropriate actions will

be taken to combat fire emergency situation.

Road and Rail Accidents

There is a no good network of road in the district. The information from the police reveals that

road accidents take place on road, which are related to truck, car, buses and motorcycle. Roads

are affected by these accidents; there were road jams in some cases. The accidents take place on

the roads and the state highways and other roads. So to cope with such disasters in the future

some safety measures must be followed. Traffic Near the plant will be monitored.

9.0 DISASTER MANAGEMENT PLAN

9.1 INTRODUCTION TO THE TERM “DISASTER”

The term “Disaster” refer to extensive damage of property and serious disruption both inside,

outside the work system and its surrounding that can be natural or human interfered. Emergency

may be caused by a number of different factors, e.g. plant failure it will normally manifest itself in

three basic forms viz fire, explosion or toxic release and requires the assistance of emergency

control services to handle mass devastation effectively.

9.2 NEED OF DISASTER MANAGEMENT

The aim of Disaster management plan is concerned with preventing accidents through following

guidelines of good design practice, operation, maintenance and inspection, by which it is possible

to reduce the risk of an accident. Since it is known to all it is not possible to eliminate entire risk

since, absolute safety is not achievable.

After Assessing and quantifying the possible scenarios, consequence analysis approach to

emergency preparedness and emergency planning delineates Disaster Management Plan for both

on-site and off-site. These plans are needed to be implemented in the event of a disaster.

9.3 OBJECTIVE OF DISASTER MANAGEMENT PLAN

The objective of Disaster Management plan is to give a broad framed layout to tackle emergency

situation that may lead to a hazardous situation. It defines detail organizational responsibilities,

actions, reporting requirements, broad and specific key roles and responsibilities of personal

with Organograms and organisation charts. The overall objectives of the emergency plan will be:

Ensure safety of people, protect the environment

To ensure localization of risk

To minimize and reduce the effects of the accident on people and property.

Immediate response to emergency scene with effective communication network and

organized procedures

To obtain and mitigate early warning of emergency conditions so as to prevent

impact on personnel, assets and environment

To prevent injuries by following proper onsite, offsite emergency plans that can

protect personnel from the hazard

9.4 PHASES OF DISASTER

There are various phases of Disaster including pre and Post Management of Hazardous Event

that may or has occurred.

Warning Phase

Emergencies /disasters are generally preceded by warnings during which preventive measures

may be initiated. For example uncontrollable build-up of pressure in process equipment, weather

forecast give warning about formation of vapour cloud, equipment failure etc.

Period of Impact Phase

This is the phase when emergency /disaster actually strike and preventive measures may hardly

be taken. However, control measures to minimise the effects may be taken through a well-

planned and ready-to-act disaster management plan already prepared by organization. The

duration may be from seconds to days.



Rescue Phase

This is the phase when impact is almost over and efforts are concentrated on rescue and relief

measures.

Relief Phase

In this phase, apart from organization and relief measures internally, depending on severity of

the disaster, external help are also to be summoned to provide relief measures (like evacuations

to a safe place and providing medical help, food clothing etc.). This phase will continue till

normalcy is restored.3

Rehabilitation Phase

This is the final and longest phase. During which measures required to put the situation back to

normal as far as possible are taken. Checking the systems, estimating the damages, repair of

equipments and putting them again into service are taken up. Help from revenue/insurance

authorities need to be obtained to assess the damage, quantum of compensation to be paid etc.

9.5 KEY ELEMENTS

The off-site emergency plan is an integral part of any hazard control system. It is based on those

accidents identified by the works management, which could affect people and the environment

outside the works. Thus, the off-site plan follows logically from the analysis that took place to

provide the basis for the on-site plan and the two plans therefore complement each other. The

roles of the various parties that may be involved in the implementation of an off-site plan are

described below. The responsibility for the off-site plan will be likely to rest either with the

works management or with the local authority. Schematic representation of various organisation

involved during emergency is shown below in Fig.1.6.

Either way, the plan must identify an emergency coordinating officer who would take overall

command of the off-site activities. Consideration of evacuation may include the following factors:

In the case of a major fire but without explosion risk (e.g. an oil storage tank), only

houses close to the fire are likely to need evacuation

If fire is escalating very fast it is necessary to evacuate people nearby as soon as

possible



In acute emergency people are advised to stay indoors and shield themselves from

the fire.
