GLOSSARY OF TERMS USED 17

GLOSSARY OF TERMS USED

ACCIDENT: An accident may be defined as “an undesirable and unplanned event with or without or major or minor damage consequence to life and/or property.”

AMBIENT: Ambient temperature is temperature of the surrounding area.

ATMOSPHERIC STABILITY: Atmospheric Stability is defined in terms of vertical temperature gradient in the atmosphere. It is usually described using the system of categories developed by Pasquill. The categories of stability class are identified by the letter A to F (or sometimes A-G)

Neutral stability occurs typically, when there is total cloud cover and is designed by category D (The temperature gradient = adiabatic lapse rate) Unstable conditions occur when the sun is shinning. The unstable conditions are designated by the letters A-C with A is the least stable condition stable conditions occur on clear, calm nights, when the air near the ground is stratified and free from turbulence and are designated by the letter E & f. Some times an additional category G is used for exceptionally stable conditions. Neutral conditions correspond to a rate of decrease in temperature with height of about 1 Deg C per meters, vertically.

DISASTER:A disaster is catastrophic consequence of a major emergency / accident that leads to, not only extensive damage to life and property but also disrupts all normal human activity for a pretty long time and requires a major national and international effort for rescue and rehabilitation of those affected.

EMERGENCY: Emergency means a situation leading to a circumstance or set of circumstances in which there is danger to the life or health of persons or which could result in big fire or explosion or pollution to the work and outside environment, affecting the workers or neighborhood in a serious manner, demanding immediate action. (Ref. Para 2(j) of Part I of Schedule XIX of Gujarat Factories Rules 1963(1995).

FLAMMABILITY LIMITS (UFL- LFL): In fuel-air system a range of composition exists outside which a flame will not propagate a substantial distance from a ignition source. The limiting fuel concentrations are termed the upper flammable limit (UFL) and lower Flammable Limit (LFL)

FLASH POINT: This is defined as the lowest temperature at which vapors above a combustible substance will ignite in air when exposed to a flame.

Depending on the test method used, the values given are either Tag closed cup (C. C.) or Cleveland open cup (O, C.) The values, along with those in 6.2 and 6.5 give an indication of the relative flammability of the chemical. In general, the open cup value is about 10o to 15oF higher than the closed cup value.

HAZARD: Hazard may be defined as “the potential of an accident.” Hazard exists in man and the system of materials and machines.

IC (INCIDENT CONTROLLER): He has to tackle the situation of operations on process/storage/event/occurrence by taking technical decisions to control the emergency by responding the requisite experienced persons.





GLOSSARY OF TERMS USED 18

IDLH (IMMEDIATELY DANGEROUS TO LIFE AND HEALTH):The level of concentration immediately dangerous to life or health from which a worker could escape without any impairing symptoms or any irreversible health effect (NIOSH/OSHA). The concentrations are reported either parts per million (ppm) or milligrams per cubic meter (mg/m3).

LC50 (LETHAL CONCENTRATION):Lethal Concentration level for air Bourne toxic substance.

LD50 (LETHAL DOSE):The term LD50 signifies that about 50% of the animals given the specified dose by mouth will die. Thus for a grade 4 chemical (below 50 mg/kg) the toxic dose for 50% of animals weighting 70 kgs (150 lb) is 70 50 = 3, 500 mg=3.5 gr or less than 1 tea spoonful, it might be as little as a few drops. For a Grade 1 chemical (5 to 15 g/kg) the LD50 would be between a pint and a quart for a 150 lb man.

OFF-SITE EMERGENCY PLAN:The objective of an Off Site Emergency Plan is to protect the life and property of the neighborhood areas of the industrial unit. Off Site Emergency Plan shall be prepared by Government Authorities as per Rule 14 of MSIHC Rules 1989 and follow the instruction under provision of CA(EPPR) Rules 1996.

ON SITE EMERGENCY PLAN:On Site Emergency Plan is to be prepared by occupier of industrial Units as per Schedule 8A under Rule 68(J)(12) of Gujarat Factories Rules 1963(2004).

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

1. Introduction

M/s. Macro Polymers Pvt. Ltd, previously known as Synthetic Resins & Adhesives industry was established in 1965 having experience of five decades in manufacturing and formulation of Industrial Polymers and Synthetic Resins. The company has set-up a manufacturing plant at Plot No.:, 133, 134, 135, 136, 164 & 165, Mahagujarat Industrial Estate, Village: Moraiya, Taluka: Sanand, District: Ahmedabad, Gujarat in year 2004. These materials are used in manufacturing of Paints, Printing Inks and Adhesives.

At present, the company manufactures Industrial Polymers and Resin Solutions by Formulation at this industrial plant. The Industry has already obtained ISO 9001:2008, ISO 14001: 2004 and ISO 18001: 2007 for existing manufacturing facility.

The industry is planning to start manufacturing of Synthetic Organic Resins by synthesis at their existing unit located at Plot No.:, 133, 134, 135, 136, 164 & 165, Mahagujarat Industrial Estate, Village: Moraiya, Taluka: Sanand, District: Ahmedabad, Gujarat. Resin manufacturing by synthesis (being synthetic organic chemicals) falls under Category 5(f) “A” as stated in Environment Impact Assessment Notification Published on 14th September, 2006.

As per requirements of EIA notification September, 2006 and 25th June, 2014, an application to obtain Environment Clearance was submitted to Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change on 1st January 2016 along with Form-1, pre-feasibility report and draft Terms of Reference (TOR). The proposal was considered by the 12th February 2016. Subsequently the Committee has issued the TOR wide letter No. J-11011/277 /2015-IA II(I) dated 31st March,2016. Based on the TOR points issued by MoEF, a Draft Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) report has been prepared which covers all aspects of the TOR.

M/s. T. R. Associates has carried out EIA/EMP studies for Environmental Clearance from Ministry of Environment and Forests, Govt. of India.

Plant Details:

Proposed expansion will be carried out in the premises of existing industry. Total plot area of existing unit is 11,971 m2, out of which 1061 m2 (8.9 %) area is already developed as a greenbelt area. The Industry has already acquired additional land from Changodar Grampanchayat for green belt development.

The industry has total investment of Rs. 9.05 Crores in the existing unit, which will be increased up to Rs. 14.30 Crores after proposed expansion. Total budget allocation towards Environmental Management Facilities will be Rs. 25 Lakhs and recurring cost will be 36.3 Lakhs. Additional 20 persons will be employed including skilled labours, unskilled labours and office staff.

Base- line Study:

To carry out Rapid Environment Impact assessment (EIA) for proposed expansion project, baseline data for various environmental aspects from December 2015 to February 2016 has been collected. The environmental parameters (ambient air, water, soil, noise, flora and fauna) selected for study are those, which are likely to be most affected by the project. The study area is defined as an area within 10.0 Km. radius from center of the site. Socio-economic environment study is only carried out from 10 Km. radius from center of the site.

***: Baseline monitoring had been carried out in December 2015 to February 2016 at 9 (including project site) locations as mentioned in proposed ToR written in Form-1. Subsequently, we have received TOR wide letter No. J-11011/277 /2015-IA II(I) dated 31st March,2016, Annexure - 1, which states that “AAQ data (except monsoon) at 8 locations for PM10, PM2.5, SO2, NO2, CO and other parameters relevant to the project shall be collected. The monitoring stations shall be based CPCB guidelines and take into account the pre-dominant wind direction, population zone and sensitive receptors including reserved forests”.

Analysis of ambient air samples revealed that the Air quality is found well within the prescribed limits of National Ambient Air Quality standards.






3. Water Environment Water samples were collected at 12 locations, out of which 4 samples were selected from surface Sources and 8 samples selected from ground water sources for physico-chemical and biological Parameter. Parameters like pH, Temperature and DO were analyzed at the time of sampling. For other Parameters analysis, the samples were preserved as per the recommended techniques for various Elemental determinations as per `IS: 3025 (part I) 1987’. These parameters were analyzed as per the procedures specified in ‘Standard Methods for Examination of Water and Wastewater’ Published by American Public Health Association (APHA) / IS 3025. Ground water and surface water samples results were compared with IS: 10500. After analysis, it is observed that at all parameters are found within permissible limits at all locations.

4. Environmental Impacts and Mitigation Measures

Air Environment

In this proposed expansion, flue gas emission will be the main source of air pollution. There will not be any type of process gas emissions during the manufacturing of resins. In the existing project, flue gas emission has been occurring from stack attached to Thermic Fluid Heaters (10 Lac Kcal/hr, 10 Lac Kcal/hr* & 1 Lac Kcal/hr). Coal / Briquettes has been utilized as fuel in these thermic fluid heaters. For proposed expansion, existing Thermic Fluid Heater of 10 Lac Kcal/hr will be upgraded to 20 Lac Kcal/hr. At present, the industry has provided Multi Cyclone Separator as an Air Pollution Control Measures to control the emission of particulate matter in the flue gas. For the proposed expansion, cyclone separator followed by bag filter will be installed as air pollution control unit to the Thermic Fluid Heater. Adequate stack height is provided for the proper dispersion of pollutants into atmosphere. The emitted pollutants are PM, SO2 & NO2. However, they will be almost within the prescribed norms.

Water Environment

Total fresh water requirement for the proposed project will be 24 KL/day which will be fulfilled own bore well. After the proposed expansion, the consumption for domestic activities will be 12 KL/day, for utilities, & cooling activities will be 12 KL/day and for on campus horticulture (greenbelt development), it will be 4.5 KL/day (Recycle treated wastewater).

Domestic wastewater: Total 10.5 KL/day sewage (domestic wastewater) will be generated. It will be passed through to Septic tank and then sent to ETP for further process.

Industrial wastewater: Total 32.0 KL/day effluent will be generated from the proposed manufacturing industrial / trade activities. However, there will not be any requirement of water in manufacturing activities. Total Treated effluent (domestic + industrial) 45 KL/day water will be reused in cooling tower make up requirement and on campus horticulture / green belt development. Water balance after proposed expansion is given in Figure given below.Phenolic effluent will be treated separatly by fenton process and then sent to ETP for further treatement.

Solid Waste Management

The entire quantity of hazardous waste will be handled & disposed as per Hazardous and other Waste (Management, Handling & Trans boundary Movement - Rules 2016. The hazardous waste categories will include 1) waste and residue formed during formulation process, 2) waste and residue formed during synthesis process; 3) filler residue formed during formulation process and 4) Inorganic process sludge. These wastes will be sent to common hazardous waste incineration facility at M/s Bharuch Enviro Infrastructure Limited (BEIL). The industry has already obtained membership of the said facility for the waste generated from existing products. The said membership will be upgraded for the proposed quantity of hazardous waste after the proposed expansion. Used oil will be reused within premises as a lubricant or sold to registered recycler, discarded plastic bags will be sold to authorized vendor.

Industry has already provided isolated area for the storage of hazardous waste. This area is sufficient to store additional hazardous waste generated after the proposed expansion. Thus, hazardous waste management system provided by the unit will be adequate and there will not be any major impact on the environment due to generation, storage and disposal of hazardous waste.

5. Green Belt Development Total plot area of existing unit is 11,971 m2, out of which 1,061 m2 (8.9 %) area is already developed greenbelt area. Industry has already acquired land from Changodar Grampanchayat for green belt development. The plantation in this area is already started.

6. Environment Monitoring Program Monitoring of environmental factors will enable us to identify the changes in the environmental impacts at various locations. To ensure the effective implementation of the EMP, monitoring of ambient air quality, stack emissions, analysis & monitoring of water environment and noise level will be carried out as required / specified by statutory authority.

7. Qualitative Risk Analysis

Risk analysis and study have been carried out for identification of hazards, selection of credible scenarios, Risk Mitigation measures etc. All the hazardous chemicals will be stored and handled as per MSDS guidelines. Personal protective equipments will be provided to the labors.

8. Project Benefits

The proposed project will become beneficial to the surrounding area or community in terms of infrastructural development, social development, employment and other benefits.






The proposed project has a potential for employment of skilled, semiskilled and unskilled employees during construction phase as well as operation phase. A total of 20 nos. of person is likely to get employment due to the project. The project will spend 2.5 % of project cost for socio-economic development & for nearby educational institutes.

9. Conclusion

Negligible impacts will occur on air quality. However, all the necessary air pollution control measures will be provided.

No ecological damage will occur.

No adverse impacts will occur on water environment.

Various other environment parameters like Forest/ National Park/ Sanctuary and Religious / Historical Places will not be affected.

Environment Management Plan has been formulated to control all the pollutant parameters and Environment Management Cell has been set-up to ensure that these parameters do not exceed the norms set out by the concerned authorities.

After commissioning of the proposed project the Environmental Management Cell will take care of all the pollution control measures.

It can be concluded that positive implementation of mitigation measures and environmental management plan during the construction & operational phase, there will be negligible impact on the environment.

Local employment opportunities will increase.

2.6 Manufacturing Process

2.6.1 Existing products

Industrial Polymers:

Crude Glycerin is taken to a vacuum distillation system and 95% Glycerin is recovered. Residual water is discharged to ETP.

Vegetable oil and poly-ol (Glycerin or Pentaerithritol) is taken in reaction vessel The mass is heated to 250° C under slight alkaline condition and maintained the

temperature for 2-3 hours. Then Mono/Di-basic Anhydried/Acid is added and polymerization reaction takes

pLakhe and polymer is formed. By varying ratio of vegetable oil and Polyol, Monoglycerides of various physical

properties are produced. When compatibility of total mass with ethanol is achieved, material is cooled. Being reversible action, prepared Poly-Glyceride is stabilized by fixing it with

addition of Benzoic Acid / Phthalic Anhydride. Solvent is added as per requirement to achieve desired specifications and to

prevent crystallization.

Resin Solutions

Base resin is taken in a vessel for heating. After heating, solvent/modifiers are added to prepare the resin solution. When compatibility of total mass with solvent/modifier is achieved, material is cooled.

Prepared resin solution is packed in drums/barrels (raw material barrels) and dispatched.

Solvent is added as per requirement to achieve desired specifications and to prevent crystallization.






2.6.2 Propsoed products

Details of Effluent Treatment Plant:

The design capacity of existing ETP is 50 m3/day and therefore, it has sufficient capacity to treat effluent to be generated from proposed expansion efficiently.

Raw effluent from plant (i.e. process effluent and cooling tower blow down) flows to ETP and gets collected in Eq. Tank.






Sewage is treated in septic tank for removal of sewage solids and collected in sewage collection sump. Then it is pumped to Equalization tank for further treatment and mixed with other effluent streams generated from process.

Unit has provided a collection cum equalization tank of 9 m3 volume. An aeration grid is provided in it for mixing of the content. The mixed effluent (sewage, blow down and process effluent) is than pumped to two anaerobic reactors, operating in parallel regime.

In anaerobic reactor, raw effluent is fed from the bottom of the reactor to distribute uniformly through the inlet distribution system. It is passed upwards through the dense anaerobic sludge bed. Organic matter is rapidly utilized by biomass and converted to methane rich biogas. Upward movement of water and keep the biomass in suspension and break any scum formation. The three-phase separator allows effective degasification to occur. The dense, granular sludge particles, devoid of attached gas bubbles, sink back to the bottom establishing a return downwards circulation. The treated effluent flows into collection channel at the top of the settlers, while the directly combustible biogas is recovered from the collection pockets.

2.11.2 Air Pollution

In this proposed expansion, flue gas emission will be the main source of air pollution. There will not be any type of process gas emissions during the manufacturing of resins as it will be done under fully close system. There will be minor fugitive emission due to raw material handling, transportation and manufacturing activity.






Various potential source of air pollution are described below under respective heading;

A. Flue Gas Emission

In the existing project, flue gas emission has been from stack attached to Thermic Fluid Heaters (10 Lakh Kcal/hr, 10 Lakh Kcal/hr & 1 Lakh Kcal/hr) in which Coal / Briquettes has been utilized as fuel. In proposed expansion existing Thermic Fluid Heater of 10 Lakh Kcal/hr will be upgraded to 20 Lakh Kcal/hr. Unit has provided Multi Cyclone Separator as an existing Air Pollution Control Measures to control the emission of particulate matter in the flue gas. For the proposed expansion bag filter will be installed as air pollution control unit in addition to existing cyclone separator for the Thermic Fluid Heater. Adequate stack height is provided for the proper dispersion of flue gases into atmosphere.

Industry has installed DG sets of 30 KVA, 125 KVA, & 180 KVA capacity) as a stand-by source to the main power supply. High Speed Diesel (HSD) has been used as fuel in D. G. Set. Adequate stack height is provided for the proper dispersion of flue gases into atmosphere.

The details of flue gas stack & technical specifications of Air Pollution Control Measures are given hereunder in Table 2.14 & Table 2.15.

B. Fugitive Emission

Because of handling, transportation of raw materials, products and different manufacturing activities, there are chances of fugitive emissions. However, unit has taken all the necessary precautions and control measures to take care of the fugitive emissions likely to occur due to the proposed expansion in existing unit:

Majority raw materials are in liquid form. All the liquids are stored in tanks or barrels in dedicated storage area. The containers are kept tightly closed to prevent vapour emissions. Most of the liquid materials are non corrosive. However, adequate material of construction is provided for storage tanks and piping to prevent any leakages. All liquids are charged through pumps with suitable seals to prevent any leakages and vapour emission.

Most of the solid materials are in flakes or crystal forms. Hence, fugitive emissions of solid materials are prevented. Very few materials are in powder form. They are stored in double lined HDPE bags or drums. Powders are charged in vessel in such a way that very low fugitive emission could occur.

Entire manufacturing activity is carried out in closed reactors / vessels and no fugitive emissions are occurred during manufacturing process. SCADA system is installed for loading and unloading of raw material in to the reactors to prevent spillages, overflow and vapour formation. The control of all parameters is done on a continuous basis. Adequate control valves, pressure release valves and safety valves etc. are provided.

All the flange joints of the pipe lines are covered with flange guards to prevent leakages and spillages. The spillages / leakages of specific chemical are collected immediately to prevent vapour formation. A regular preventive maintenance is carried out to prevent leakages.

Adequate ventilation system is provided in process plant and hazardous chemical storage area.






All the roads are made of RCC to prevent any dusting due to vehicle movement within the premises of the industry. Transporters instructed to cover the trucks by tarpaulin sheets to prevent any fugitive emissions during transportation. Sufficient information and training regarding characteristics and immediate actions in case of any spillage or accident during transportation of hazardous chemicals is provided to the drivers.

All these existing measures are good enough to prevent the fugitive emissions. Same measures shall be adopted for the proposed expansion to prevent the fugitive emissions.

The industry will install portable detection system for hazardous chemicals like Methanol, Phenol and Formaldehyde (37%) in process area. The industry will also carry out regular work place monitoring.

2.11.3 Solid / Hazardous Waste The main source of hazardous waste generation will be from manufacturing process. The other hazardous wastes shall be discarded bags and used oil. The details of hazardous waste generation and handling / management are given in Table 2.17. Unit has already provided storage area for hazardous wastes having roof, pucca flooring with leachate collection system. Hazardous waste is filled plastic bags and plastic bags are kept in barrels. These barrels are stored separately category wise the in hazardous waste area. There is no chance of lechate generation as the waste is dry and filled in plastic bags. However, if any lechate is generated, it will be collected and treated in effluent treatment plant. The same area is big enough to store the increased quantity of the hazardous waste generated due to proposed expansion.

The industry has obtained the membership of the common hazardous waste incinerator facility at Bharuch Enviro Infrastructure Limited (BEIL) site and hazardous waste is being regularly sent there for disposal by incineration. The industry will manage the hazardous waste after commencement of expansion project.

Fly Ash Management: Proposed fuel Thermic Fluid Heater: Coal /Briquettes Fuel requirement: 25 MT/DayFly ash generation has been calculated considering maximum ash generation scenario considering use of coal. Ash content in Coal : 4 % Total Ash generation = 0.04 x 25 MT/day = 1 MT/day Considering 50% Ash to be collected from bottom, cyclone and, Bottom Ash = 0.5 x 1 MT/day = 0.5 MT/day [A] Considering 50 % Ash to be carried away with flue gas as fly ash which will be further trapped in dust collector (Efficiency: 60 %) and bag filter (Efficiency: 90 %) Fly ash trapped in Air pollution control units

= (0.5 x 0.6) + (0.5 x 0.4) x 0.9

= 0.3 + 0.18 = 0.48 MT/day [B]

Total Maximum Ash to be generated using coal

= (0.5 + 0.48) MT/day [A + B] Approximately 0.98 or say 1 MT/day

However, total Ash generation will be quite less in case of using briquettes. The same is around 0.5 MT/day based on the above calculation.

At present, the ash is filled in bags and stored in dedicated ash storage area with proper care and sold to bricks manufacturer.






2.11.4 Noise & Vibration

At present, noise is generated due to the operation of pumps, compressors, fans and D.G. Sets mainly. There is no manufacturing activity like milling or hammering that creates noise. Other significant source of noise is vehicle movement. After the said expansion, the source of noise will be same.

The industry has already installed latest technology based low noise D.G. sets with acoustic enclosures to keep noise levels below prescribed limits.

Adequate engineering measures such as vibration control for equipment with high vibration etc. is provided to keep noise level within prescribed limits.

Proper and timely oiling, lubrication and preventive maintenance is carried out for the machineries and equipment to reduce noise generation.

Ear muffs/ earplugs are provided to the workers working in high noise area to minimize the adverse effect on the health.

To reduce the noise generation during the transportation activities; the transport contractor are instructed to kept vehicle periodically serviced and maintained as per the guidelines of the vehicle manufacturers. Only those vehicles with PUC’s are allowed for the transportation.

The transport contractor is informed to avoid unnecessary speeding of vehicles and using horns inside the premises.

Noise monitoring is done regularly at prominent place in the plant. At present, the noise levels within the premises of the industry and on the

boundary of the industry are within the prescribed limits.

The noise level will be maintained within the prescribed limits after the proposed expansion by adopting the same measures.

2.12 Analysis of Alternatives (Technology & Site)

M/s. Macro Polymers Pvt. Ltd. is an existing industry and the proposed expansion will take place within the existing premises having all the infrastructure facilities, land, water sources, material transportation, power etc. Unit already has sufficient space within premises required for the proposed expansion so no additional land will be required and therefore, there is no need to analyze any alternate site for proposed expansion.

For proposed expansion, existing infrastructure facilities will be utilized with addition of some new plant machineries. Therefore, no alternative for the site was considered. Unit intends to do expansion by backward integration (i.e. manufacturing of base resins viz. Unsaturated Polyester Resins and Alkyd Resins). Manufacturing of these Synthetic Organic Resins involves only esterification reactions






and heating, cooling and mixing as physical operations for which unit has adopted latest and best technology available so far in the market. Moreover, the unit is very concerned and conscious about the product quality and equally about the environmental protection and resource conservation. However, the industry will put their efforts for replacing/ upgrading their existing plant and machineries from time to time with the best available technology.






3 DESCRIPTION OF THE ENVIRONMENT

3.1 Introduction

EIA Notification 2006 specifies that an EIA Report should contain a description of the existing environment that would be or might be affected directly or indirectly by the proposed expansion project.

3.2 Environmental Baseline Monitoring

Environmental Baseline Monitoring (EBM) is a very important stage of EIA. Description of the existing environment should include natural, cultural, socio-economic systems and their interrelationships. The intention is collection and description of baseline data on those Environment Components that are important and are likely to be affected by the proposed industrial activity.

An effective methodology is important for baseline data collection and impact prediction to develop an efficient environment management plan. In this regard, it is important to understand the ground realities of the site and surrounding by the experts involved in preparation of EIA. Accordingly, a team of expert visited the existing project site as well as study area to understand the site surrounding and possible impacts from the activities of the proposed expansion project. The EIA coordinators in consultation with the respective functional area experts had selected sampling locations as per the TORs prescribed by the EAC. Subsequently, the field monitoring was done during December 2015 to February 2016 by laboratory staff of T. R. Associates along with functional areas of respective fields.

3.2.1 Objectives of Baseline Monitoring: The term ‘baseline’ refers to conditions existing before development. EBM studies are carried out to:

Identify environmental conditions which might influence project design decisions (e.g., site layout, structural or operational characteristics);

Identify sensitive issues or areas requiring mitigation or compensation; Provide input data to analytical models used for predicting effects; Provide baseline data against which the results of future monitoring programs

can be compared.






3.2.2 Methodology of baseline study

For the generation of baseline data guideline proposed by CPCB as well as TORs issued by Expert Appraisal Committee (EAC) of MoEF & CC has been taken into consideration. Copy of ToRs and its compliance are provided at the beginning of this report. The details of the study period, frequency of sampling & method of environmental sampling & analysis are given below in succeeding sections under respective titles.

3.2.3 Study area:

To carry out Environment Baseline Monitoring and to generate baseline environmental data study area of 10 kms radial distance from existing project site has been selected. Base line data of Ambient air quality, water sampling, land use, land cover, topography, ecology study as well as socio economic study were collected for study area of 10 kms.

3.3 Air Environment

Dispersion of different air pollutants released into the atmosphere has significant impacts on the neighborhood air environment of an industrial project and it forms an important part of impact assessment studies. The ambient air quality status with respect to the study zone of 10 km radial distance from the plant site will form the base line information over which the predicted impacts due to the proposed expansion project are super imposed to find out the net (final) impacts on air environment. From the final impacts, a viable Environmental Management Plan (EMP) is prepared based on the impact statement for the air environment. The baseline status of the ambient air quality is assessed through scientifically designed ambient air quality monitoring network. The design of monitoring network in the air quality surveillance program is based on the following considerations.

Meteorological conditions on synoptic scale. Topography of the study area. Representation of regional background levels. Representation of plant site. Representation of cross sectional distribution in the downward direction. Influence of the existing sources if any, are to be kept at minimum. Inclusion of major distinct villages to collect the baseline status.






3.3.1 Study period, sampling location and monitoring frequency: Study period: For the baseline data collection field monitoring was done during December 2015 to February 2016. Sampling location: For ambient air quality monitoring samples were collected from study area of 10 Kms radial distance from the existing unit. Location of ambient air quality monitoring stations were selected based on guidelines provided by Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB). Following information has been collected as suggested in the CPCB guideline before selecting monitoring location:

Details of air pollution sources and emissions, health status, demography, population growth, landuse pattern were collected using available secondary data sources. Predominant wind direction is identified from the metrological data collected which plays an important role in determining location of monitoring stations.

Such prior information will provide immense help to identify the likely effects and in particular health impacts resulting from population exposure to air pollutants. Number and distribution of Monitoring Locations: Information of emission sources and land use pattern is used along with windrose data to determine areas of expected higher concentrations and based on this information location of monitoring station has been decided. The number of monitoring stations is selected based on background information collected and as per IS 5182 Part 14; 2000 (Recommended Minimum Number of stations, Population - Wise). In general the following conditions as suggested in CPCB guideline and WHO, 1977 is used for locating monitoring stations: 1. The site should be away from major pollution sources. The distance depends upon the source, its height and its emissions. The station should be at least 25 m away from domestic chimneys, especially if the chimneys are lower than the sampling point; with larger sources the distance should be greater (WHO, 1977). 2. The site should be away from absorbing surfaces such as absorbing building material. The clearance to be allowed will depend on the absorbing properties of the material for the pollutant in question, but it will normally be at least 1 m. (WHO, 1977). 3.The objective of monitoring is often to measure trends in air quality and measurements are to be conducted over a long time; thus the site should be selected such that it is expected to remain a representative site over a long time and no landuse changes, rebuildings etc. are foreseen in near future.






4.Comparability To compare data of different stations, the details of each location is standardized. The following is recommended in IS 5182 (Part 14) 2000 (i) On all the sides it should be open, that is the intake should not be within a confined space, in a corner, under or above a balcony. (ii) For traffic pollution monitoring the sampling intake should be 3 m above the street level. . (iii) The height of 3m is recommended to prevent re-entrainment of particulates from the street, to prevent free passage of pedestrians and to protect the sampling intake from vandalism. Sampling in the vicinity of unpaved roads and streets results in entrainment of dust into the samplers from the movement of vehicles. Samplers are therefore to be kept at a distance of 200 m from unpaved roads and streets.

3.3.2 Micrometeorological Data

The meteorological data recorded during survey period is very useful for proper interpretation of the baseline information as well as it serves as an input, to predictive models for air quality impacts.

To understand meteorological scenario within study area primary data generated and secondary data collected from various authentic sources. This data is used in the interpretation of wind scenario. The data collected from the both sources are summarized as follows:

Table 3-1: Meteorological Data Collection Period

Meteorological data

Primary data (Dec 2015 to Fab 2016): Parameters like Wind speed and its direction, Temperature, Humidity for project site using Automatic Weather Station at >10 m height.

Secondary data (Nov 2014 to Jan 2015): Secondary data has been collected from the nearest IMD source (Ahmedabad) for temperature, Humidity, Rainfall, wind speed, direction & Cloud cover.

A. Meteorological Data from IMD, Ahmedabad (Secondary Data: Nov 2014 to Jan 2015)

As per the historical data (IMD), collected (Ahmedabad for the above mentioned period for the year 2014-2015), the daily maximum temperature recorded in the month of Nov (36.00C) and the daily minimum temperature were recorded in the month of January (10.0oC). Similarly the maximum humidity levels was recorded in the month of January (100 %) and the minimum humidity levels recorded in the month of Nov (14%). The maximum monthly mean wind speed (5.2 km/hr) in the month of December where the minimum monthly mean wind speed (1.9 km/hr) was recorded in the month of December.

The monthly mean values of meteorological data are shown in the form of wind rose in Figure 3-1.

Figure 3-1: Wind Rose Diagram for Secondary data collected from IMD – Ahmedabad (Nov 2014 to Jan 2015)






B. Meteorology – Data generated at plant site (Primary data: March 2016 to May 2016)

Meteorology of the study zones plays an important role in the study of air pollution. Micrometeorological conditions at project site regulate the dispersion and dilution of air pollutants in the atmosphere. For this purpose a weather station was installed near the plant site for the above mentioned period and recorded hourly observations for the parameters like Maximum and minimum Temperatures (oC), Relative Humidity (%), Wind Speed (m/sec), Wind direction and Rainfall mm.

Meteorological conditions of the site, regulates the transport and diffusion of air-pollutants released into the atmosphere. Ambient temperature, wind speed, wind direction and atmospheric stability are called primary or basic Meteorological Parameters because the dispersion and diffusion of pollutants depend mainly on these Parameters. Humidity, precipitation, pressure and visibility are secondary Meteorological Parameters as this control the dispersion of the pollutants indirectly by affecting primary Parameters.

The hourly-recorded observations (wind velocity and wind directions) during above stated study period are used in computing percentage frequencies and are depicted in the form of ‘wind roses’ in Fig. 3.2. Primary meteorological data are shown in Annexure 2.

Figure 3-2: Meteorological Wind Rose Diagram for Dec 2015 to Feb 2016 (Primary data)






3.3.3 Selection of AAQ stations A network of nine ambient air-sampling locations has been selected for assessment of the existing status of air environment within the study zone. The heights of the sampling locations were kept between 3 to 6 m in all the locations. After reconnaissance of the area and observing the topographical features and review of the available meteorological data and local conditions of sampling sites were chosen which will be the representative of the local areas under study.

3.3.4 Existing Ambient Air Quality status To know the status of air quality in the study area, Levels of pollutants such as PM10, PM2.5, SO2, NOx, CO and VOC are selected for the sampling. The methodology of sampling and analysis in detail is given in the following tables. (3.1.3 -3.1.5)

Sampling and analysis in detail is given in Table 3-4 & Table 3-5. Locations are marked in map (Figure 3-3).

3.4 Noise Environment

Noise word come from the Latin word ‘nauseas’, it is a loud outcry or commotion that is unpleasant, unexpected, or undesired with various frequencies over the audible range due to the regular activities of the Mankind primarily Noise pollution (or environmental noise) is displeasing human, animal or machine-created sound that disrupts the activity or balance of humans or animals life. The source of most outdoor noise worldwide is mainly evolved from Industries, constructions and transportation systems, including motor vehicle noise, aircraft noise and rail noise, poor urban planning may give rise to noise pollution.

Industrial Noise resulting to noise pollution has many reasons such as industries being close to human habitats which prevent the noise from decaying before it reaches human ear.

A determination is made of the micro scale impact by predicting anticipated noise levels for each alternative during both construction and operational phases. Predicted noise levels are compared with applicable standards or criteria in order to assess the impact.

The physical description of sound concerns its loudness as a function of frequency. Noise in general sound which comprises of many frequency components with different variations in loudness over the audible frequency range.

Various noise scales have been introduced to describe, a single number, the response of an average human to a complex sound made up of various frequencies at different loud levels, the response of the human ear to sound is dependent on the frequency of the sound and this has led to the concept of weighting scales. In the "A-weighting" scale, the sound pressure levels for the lower frequencies and higher frequencies are reduced by certain amounts before they are being combined together to give one single sound pressure level value. This value is designated as dB (A). The dB (A) is often used as it reflects more accurately the frequency response of the human ear. A perceived loud noise has a high dB or dB (A) value and a soft noise has a low one. The human ear has peak response around 2,500 to 3,000 Hz and has a relatively low response at low frequencies.

3.4.1 Existing Noise Levels

Noise levels have been monitored at different points within the study zone and on the spot measurement device manufactured by LUTRON SL4001 was used for this purpose. Keeping in view of various local activities such as residential and Industrial activities 8 noise level measurement locations were identified and the sites are depicted in the Figure 3-4 & Table 3-7.

3.5 Water Environment

Water quality studies have been carried out in the study area to understand the availability of water resources, possibility of water contamination and existing water quality.

3.5.1 Water Quality

Water of high quality is essential to human life, and water of acceptable quality is essential for Agricultural, industrial, domestic and commercial uses; in addition, most recreation is water based;

Therefore, major activities having potential effects on surface water are certain to be of appreciable Concern to the consumers.

3.5.2 Sample collection and analysis

The water resources in the study area may be classified into two major categories like Surface and Ground water sources.

Water samples were collected at 21 locations, out of which 13 samples from surface Sources and 8 samples from ground water sources for physico-chemical and biological parameters. Parameters like pH, Temperature and DO analysed at the time of sampling. For other Parameter analysis the samples were preserved as per the recommended techniques for various Elemental determinations as per `IS: 3025 (part I) 1987’. These parameters were analyzed as per the procedures specified in ‘Standard Methods for Examination of Water and Wastewater’ Published by American Public Health Association (APHA) / IS 3025. Results were compared with IS: 10500 specification.

3.5.3 Method of Water Sampling

The following procedures were used while sampling:

Washing the bottles/cans with distilled water prior to the sampling Before collection of water the bottles/cans are again washed 2-3 times with the same

water For surface water, Bottles were lowered to a minimum depth of 30 cm below water

surface. At each point Different sets of water samples were collected so as cover all the

parameters Meticulous attention is taken in proper numbering at the site Sterilized bottles were used for the samples that are to be analyzed for bacteria Civil supply water pipeline taps are sterilized before collection for bacteriological

analysis Parameters like pH, conductivity and temperature were analyzed in the field

conditions and the results were reconfirmed after getting to the laboratory. DO is fixed and titrated in the field itself.

Appropriate preservatives are added, depending upon the elements to be analyzed and marked accordingly (IS: 3025 (part I) 1987)

All the water samples collected in the ice box, were immediately transported to the laboratory and freezed at <5oC analysis

Field observations were noted in the field notebook As far as possible photographs were taken in almost all sampling points. Sampling &

analysis of all the parameters are as per APHA, 22nd Edition & IS: 3025.

A. Data Analysis

The physicochemical and biological analysis of the collected sample results are given in Table 3-10 & Table 3-11. The pH of the ground water samples varying from 6.89 to 7.86 indicating neutral. Hardness, Alkalinity, chlorides, sulfates is found to be well within prescribed limits. However chlorides & sulfates are found to be lower than the required limits. Ground water is found as drinkable water and mostly all villages are using ground water as drinking water source.

3.6 Land Environment Land and ecology study is important for Environmental Impact Assessment to identify sensitive issues and take appropriate action by maintaining ‘ecological homeostasis’ in the early stages of development of the project. The objective of this report is to define the present environment in which the proposed action is to occur, to evaluate all the possible eventualities, to ensure that all negative impacts are minimized and to demonstrate that the proposed project has been appropriately announce to all the interested parties so that their concerns can be considered. For this purpose baseline data (biotic and abiotic factors) has been studied around 10 km radius of the project. This data has been gathered during Dec 2015 – Feb 2016.

3.6.1 Methodology of Sample Collection and Analysis Soil For soil quality analysis 8 sampling sites were chosen to understand physico-chemical and biological status of the soil. The sampling sites are marked in Fig.3.4.1. This will establish the baseline characteristics and will facilitate identifying the contamination if any due to the proposed project. Collection of soil samples and analysis

Disturbed soil samples were collected from the rotary cuttings and bailers and also from split spoon samplers. Un-disturbed tube samples were collected using thin walled tubes. Soil samples were collected such that structure and moisture content of the soil do not get altered. In accordance with IS: 2720, split samples were carefully extracted from the samplers.

Meticulous was paid to collect adequate amount of composite soil samples for analysis. The samples were packed in dependable, waterproof containers and marking specified accurately and distinctly. All the soil samples and core boxes were carefully transported to the testing laboratory.

All ‘Soil sampling and analysis’ will be followed and done by Indian Standard IS – 2720. Parameters analyzed for soil samples were Electrical Conductivity, pH, Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium, Organic Carbon%, Calcium, Magnesium, Sodium, Sulphate, Bulk Density, etc.

3.6.3 Geo-Hydrological Features

A. Introduction:

Rapid urban, growth and its continuous expansion around Sanand Taluka, Dist. Ahmedabad has created problems related to water supply, Sewerage/ effluent disposal leading to ground water depletion and pollution. The present report incorporate hydrogeology and ground water scenario based on the scientific information with special reference to Recharge Activity in Sanand Taluka to envisage appropriate remedial measures keeping environmental impact of Sanand Taluka development in view.

B. Geology:

The area forms part of North Gujarat Alluvial Plain with elevations ranging from 40 to 50 m MSL. The area is under lain by post Miocene alluvium comprising sand, gravel, silt and clay. The alluvium is about 400 m thick under lain by tertiary formation. The alluvium mainly consists of palaeo deltaic, fluvial and Aeolian sediments, comprising alternate bands of fine to course grained sand, gravel and yellowish brownish sticky clay .

C. Land / Soil Characteristic:

The sub soil condition below the existing ground level are almost uniform in nature. Sub soil is composed of Clay mixed with little fine grained silty sand, moram and Kankar with low resistivity due to clay and soil moisture. The area is covered with recent to sub recent alluvial deposits comprising of brownish clay mixed with little fine grained sand, silty sand. The Soil below ground level consist of top silty low plastic soil layer having no swelling nature. Blackish brown to yellowish brown clayey silt or sand silt layer extends to the depth of 2 to 3 mts.

D. Rain Fall:

The average annual rainfall (1980 to 1990) is 558 mm. (10 years) average rain fall of (1990 to 2000) 10 years is 746 mm, average rain fall of (2000-2010) is 889 mm and average rainfall of 30 years is 731 mm contributed mainly by Southwestern monsoon active from June to Mid September.

F. General Information of Taluka Sanand: Total number of villages = 67 Total area of Taluka in Sq. Kms.= 800 Saline area = 240 Sq.Kms. Fresh water area = 460 Sq.Kms. Hard rock area = NIL. Alluvium area = 800 Sq.Kms Feasibility =Deep Tubewell Quality of Groundwater = Potable water & Partly Saline Ground water Balance – 112.15 MCM/ Year

G. Climate:

The climate of the area is semi arid and is characterized by a hot summers and general dryness except during the South west monsoon between the months June and September. There is a meteorological observatory at Ahmedabad manned by IMD. May is the hottest month with mean daily maximum temperature of 41.3 0 C. and the mean daily minimum temperature of 26.30 C. %.

H. Geohydrology:

The litho logical logs of exploratory bore holes, electrical logging results by govt. agencies in and around Sanand taluka have been studied to understand the subsurface geology and the aquifer system. These bore holes have penetrated the thick sequence of post Miocene sediments down to 300 + m depth.






132

The hydro geological cross sections have been prepared by CGWB to study the subsurface geology and aquifer system in the area. It is reveals that the existence of multilayered aquifer system, within a depth of 300 + m bgl.

I. Ground Water Condition:

In the area under investigation, ground water occurs both under phreatic and confined condition in aranaceous horizons. The occurrence and movement of ground water is mainly controlled by primary porosity of inter granular pore spaces. Ground water is being developed extensively by means of Tube well from deep confined aquifers for water supply both in domestic, industrial and agricultural sector.

J. Depth of Ground Water Table:

Shallow aquifer (Phreatic) development (up to 30m depth) in the area is limited due to rapid urbanization inferior quality and low yields. Depth of water level in these tubewell ranges from 10 to 20 mts. yield of wells is moderate and quality of ground water is variable and ranges from fresh to saline.

a. Confined Aquifers:

Deep tube well tapping confined aquifers are the main ground water withdrawal structure. Due to rapid urban growth, heavy ground water exploitation has resulted in progressive lowering of potential head and discharges. Depths of tube well have increased from about 150 m in late sixties to more than 300 m at present. Depth to water level in confined aquifers ranged from 90 to 100mts. Discharge for tube well ranged from 15 lps to 35 lps for 3 to 10m of draw downs. The specific capacity of these wells ranges from 1 to 12 lps/m. Aquifer transmissivity and hydraulic conductivity varies from about 100 to 2000 m2 /day and 1 to 78 m/day respectively. Ground water quality in deeper aquifer generally varies from 800 to 2000 TDS.

b. Water level Fluctuation:

Large scale development of Ground Water from deep aquifers has resulted in progressive decline in water levels. Presently the Pumping water level rest more than 75m bgl. and as a consequence discharge have reduced or pumping costs have increased. The rate of decline varies from 2.06 m/yr to 2.136 m/yr.

K. Drainage Pattern:

The area has a drainage pattern which is of the parallel and trellis type and which is controlled by the topography and structure and tectonics of the region. All the small streams flow from the higher grounds and meet ultimately Sabarmati River which flow from northeast direction to southeast direction near project area. The area Drainage ultimately meet with Gulf of Khambhat.






133

Area has diverse landscape made up of small hills, valley, drainage flow, Platue and alluvium plain. The terrain slope is south in the north and western in the south number of major river drains the area. Due to terrain constraint it is necessary to adopt proper soil conservation and sand water development and management practice for w/s in sustained basis. Because of short span of monsoon season and limited storage capacity and rapid cut flow for hard rock aquifers, that is need to provide ground water recharge facilities to supplement its which drawl at a time of summer. As various components of the hydrologic system-Catchment runoff, base flow and ground water an integrated at the level of river basins, river basin should be the unit of governance and management of water resource such a system of governance will ensure integration of physical sustainability consideration and the social economical and environmental consideration in water resources management planning which ultimately result in good governance

L. EIA : Environmental Impact Assessment:

EIA is to identify, Predict, mitigate and communicate the possible impact due to proposed project.

Industries require water for cooling and domestic requirement. Mostly the industrial uses are both consumptive and non consumptive, making reuse and other conservation measures possible. The amount of water consumed for any product, varies widely depending upon the processes used, plant efficiency, technology employed, the degree to which water is re-circulated and other factors. However, it remains almost the same throughout the year as water is used only for cooling tower make up and domestic purpose only. Industrial waste may contain different kinds of pollutants, which if untreated may result in contamination of water resources. Treatment of industrial wastewater and recycling are essential to conserve water resources.

Main source of water is treated sewage and industrial effluent. Bore well within the plant site provides additional water to fulfill the demand. Use of water for industrial purpose causes negative impact on the environment. However the selected process is eco-friendly. The development of green belt improves the moist conditions in the soil and control thermal radiation. Due to rain water harvesting, ground water quality will be improved in due course.

Treatment of industrial waste water and recycling are essential to conserve water resources.

Efficient utilization of recycled water and reuse of water should be mandatory. Water audit measures to be adopted for ensuring minimum use of water.






134

There will be no impact of ground water in the area due to the industries because the ground water level of the area varies from 25 to 30 mts. from ground level. Due to industries operation no waste water will be generated due to the plant is zero discharged eco-friendly process, therefore there will be no impact on the ground water quality as water available in tubewell is portable.

M. Feasibility of Source at Moraiya , Taluka Sanand:

Around Sanand Taluka is checked on ground water prospect map, prepared by National Remote sensing Agency, Dept. of space, G.O.I Hyderabad map sheet no 46B05 for feasibility of source. The details is as under.

3.6.4 LAND USE STATUS

A. Introduction

The land-use & land cover map of the 10 km radius study area from the project site has been prepared using IRS P6 LISS-III satellite image procured from NRSC (National Remote sensing Centre), Hyderabad. Land use pattern of the study area as well as the catchment area was carried out by standard methods of analysis of remotely sensed data and followed by ground truth collection (Bench mark) and interpretation of satellite data. The outcome of land use study has been presented below in subsequent table and figures. The data was processed through ArcGIS Software tools available with ESRI Package. The Land use map of the 10 Km study area is presented in Figure 1.

B. Land use & land cover classification results

Land Cover is the physical material at the surface of the earth (it include grass, asphalt, trees, bare ground, water, etc.) whereas Land use is the human use of land.

Land Use involves the management and modification of natural environment or wilderness into built environment such as fields, pastures, and settlements. It has also been defined as "the arrangements, activities and inputs people undertake in a certain land cover type to produce, change or maintain it".

There is no one ideal classification of land use and land cover, and i t is unlikely that one could ever be developed. There are different perspectives in the classification process, and the process itself tends to be subjective, even when an objective numerical approach is used.

Concepts concerning land cover and land use activity are closely related and in many cases have been used interchangeably. The purposes for which lands are being used commonly have associated types of cover, whether they are forest, agricultural, residential, or industrial.

Remote sensing image-forming devices do not record activity directly. The remote sensor acquires a response which is based on many characteristics of the land surface, including natural or artificial cover. The interpreter uses color, tones, textures, shapes, size, patterns, and site associations to derive information about land use activities from what is basically information about land cover.






137

To begin with, there is considerable diversity of opinion about what constitutes land use, although present use of land is one of the characteristics that are widely recognized as significant for planning and management purposes.

The classification must be scientifically defensible presenting a logical progression of its applicability over large areas, amenable for use with remote sensor data. The classification scheme is adopted for extracting information for on most possible land use/land cover classes in general and all the agricultural seasons in particular and hence enable to repeat the process at regular time intervals.

The present Land use / Land cover map for the proposed project activity is prepared by current vintage of satellite image. This report thus will enable assessing the impact on land use pattern in the study area due to the proposed project activity.

C. DATA USED

Current vintage data of Indian Remote Sensing satellite IRS P6 LISS III digital FCC (False Color Composite) has been used for preparation of Land use/ Land cover thematic map of study area. Survey of India toposheet as a reference map on 1:50,000 scale has been used for preparation of base layer data like road, rail network, village and mine site and for geo referencing of satellite image.

D. Technical Details Satellite Image - IRS P6 LISS III Satellite Data Source - NRSC, Hyderabad Software Used - Earth Resources Data Analysis System (ERDAS) Imagine 9.2 and ArcGis10.

E. METHODOLOGY

Land use / Land cover map preparation, Base map creation; Geometric and Radiometric correction of satellite image has been processed using ERDAS Imagine 9.2 Software.

Salient features of the adopted methodology are given below:

Acquisition of satellite data. Preparation of base map from Survey of India toposheet. Data analysis using visual interpretation techniques. Ground truth studies or field checks. Finalization of the map.






138

Digitization using heads up vectorisation method. Area calculation for statistics generation.

F. INTERPRETATION OF REMOTE SENSING DATA

Satellite images are composed of array of grid, each grid has a numeric value that is known as digital number. Smallest unit of this grid is known as a pixel that captures reflectance of ground features represented in terms of Digital number, each representing specific land features. Using image classification technique, the satellite data is converted into thematic information, map based on the user’s knowledge about the ground area. Hybrid technique has been used i.e. visual interpretation and digital image processing for identification of different land use and vegetation cover classes based on spectral signature of geographic feature.

Spectral signature represents various land use classes. Image interpretation keys are developed based on image characteristics like color, tone, size, shape, texture, pattern, shadow, association etc, which enables interpretation of satellite images for ground feature. Training sites are then assigned based on their spectral signature and interpretation elements. Using image classification algorithm land use map is generated.

A total of seven land use/land cover classes have been demarcated in the study area following Level I, II and III classification (Table 3.15). A thematic map suitable for 1:25,000 scale map generation incorporating these classified categories has been prepared and considering that the area of the project is considerably small a large scale map is prepared (Fig.3.4.3). The area as a whole represents plain area with very gentle sloping to nearly level area & to the eastern of area is settlement area and without scrub area is adjoining near river and it is also observed that the minor stream are linked with these main river channel debouche into the Gulf of Cambay. Medium level industrial zone covered for 15.0 sq km, the total land area of scrub land covered 15.0 sq km and 387.0 sq km area covered under agriculture land as well as plantation / Horticulture 2.0 sq km has developed mainly in the area adjacent to the rivers.

The adjoining area of project site is totally agricultural land including Kharif ,Rabi and Summer crop, constitute the dominant category of land use covering as much as 387.0 sq km of the total area. Active river forming the perennial water body together with the numerous open & wastelands form a major and minor land cover category. Active river and its tributaries flowing into it cover about 10.0 sq km of the total project area. Due to large seasonal variation in discharge of these rivers, the area coverage of this category various in space and time. The consistently shifting nature of the and consequent bank migration has resulted in large uncultivated & rural settlement along the active plain area towards the site location. These areas are agriculture and settlement development area the project site is located within the uncultivated land area significant distribution. The land use for settlement is mostly confined to

3.6.5 TOPOGRAPHY The area of the project site (M/s. Macro Polymer PVT Ltd) is located in the CENTRAL part of AHMEDABAD DISTRICT of Gujarat state.

The topographic feature & drainage pattern of the study area has been studied from SRTM3, 2008 data having resolution of 3 arc seconds. The toposheet have been analysed using GIS application to generate the contour line at interval of 10 Kms considering one elevated area in the study region. Further, the digital elevation data have been analysed to determine the slope & elevation profiles of the each individual villages of the study area as well as whole study area to ascertain the landform of the villages and study area.

It has been observed that the major area of study area is levelled plain to nearly level with slight slopes. Two areas in the study region have been noticed with considerably medium slope from village Moraiya and Changodar making the landform of small slopes indicating small plain with the elevation profile. Over all slope direction of the study area is noticed towards north east to south.

The maximum elevation and higher slope is found near eastern part of Vejalpur, Makarba and Shela village in comparison to rest of concerned area.

The generated streams indicated that the most of the area are covered by no stream but out side the 10 km buffer area i.e. river flowing through the North eastern area towards downstream to south is Sabarmati river. Besides it is also observed that the north eastern area lies the Ahmedabad city and adjoining the river sides lies a good fertile land.

Topography of the area is characterized by dominating plain area with very gentle sloping to nearly level area.

DIGITAL ELEVATION MODEL

Digital Elevation Models are data files that contain the elevation of the terrain over a specified area, usually at a fixed grid interval over the "Bare Earth". The intervals between each grid points will always be referenced to some geographical coordinate system. This is usually either latitude-longitude or UTM (Universal Transverse Mercator) coordinate systems. The closer are together the grid points, more detailed information will be in the file. The detail s of the peaks and valleys in the terrain will be better modelled with small grid spacing than when the grid






144

intervals are very large. Elevations other than at the specific grid point locations are not contained in the file. As a result peak points and valley points not coinciding with the grid will not be recorded in the file. For practical purpose this "Bare Earth" DEM is generally synonymous with a Digital Terrain Model (DTM)

3.6.6 ECOLOGY STATUS

A. Review and Map Analysis

After first consultation with client we had discussed with our team and standerdised our approach for each component of project.

We received all site specific information including maps, toposheets, project related documents etc. from client.

Collection and collation of project related secondary information from our EIA coordinator of consultant.

Rapid survey of the project area to identify existing major habitat types within it (Wilderness area-Wasteland & Gauchar land: Krishnagar road, Gungan, Nr.jadeshwar temple, Nr.Amangar, Gada village and Nr.Sapar; Agriculture & Road side habitation: Gala-Sapar road, Rangpur-Bela road, Rampur-Meghpar road and Bharatnagar-Bhaktinagar road; and Wetlands including village ponds, tanks, nallah and riverine: like Machchhu river, Ghodadhrai river, Nr.Waghapar nallah, Bela nallah and Nr.Rangpur rivulet).

B. Methodology and Field Survey

After various meeting with project authority and concultant, we finalized our field-level approach and methodology for collection of primary data on biodiversity components including floristic and faunal survey.

This fileld approach involved mainly the survey-based primary data collection on various biodiversity components of the project objectives.

The field data collection mainly included biodiversity assessment of different life forms of floral species such as; trees, shrubs & climbers, herbs and grass. Faunal diversity was also assessed by inventorying the major group like herpetofauna, birds and mammals.

For biodiversity assessment we followed standered methods for each component like for plants survey, we laid a plots at various site specific habitat and paramulated method also been employed to document each plant species with their phynological details if any and other important details like collected medicinal value of selected plant species from local villagers, associated habitat, local name etc.

While, for bird species survey, we followed total count method for aquatic species (Bhupathy 1991) and point counted survey (Bibby et al., 1992) employed to survey terrestrial species. In case of herpetofauna, method suggested by Welsh (1987) been employed and intensive time constrained search been employed for each dominant habitat. Daniels (1992) and Burnham et al., (1980) methods been followed to search mammalian species through direct count and indirect count, respectively. In addition, published and un-published review on various faunal components and various suggected site specific and species specific methods also been employed to document overall status of fauna in and around the project sites.

Macro Level Approach: Secondary data collection Collection and collation of project related secondary information. Rapid survey of the project area to identify existing major habitat types

within it (Wilderness area if any, Agriculture, Wasteland and Wetlands, i.e., village ponds, tanks, reservoirs and riverine).






Micro Level Approach- Field Data Collection Micro level field approach involved mainly the survey-based primary data

collection on various biodiversity components of the project objectives. The field data collection mainly included biodiversity assessment of different

life forms of floral species such as; trees, shrubs, herbs and grass. Faunal diversity was also assessed by inventorying the major group like

Herpetofauna, birds and mammals.

C. FAUNAL STATUS

1) Herpetofauna

Status of herpetofauna was assessed using Intensive Time Constrained Search Method covering different micro habitats (Welsh, 1987, Welsh and Lind 1991). This intensive search was made in different habitat types randomly selected.

2) Birds

Avifaunal status was assessed both in terrestrial and aquatic habitats. Total count or flock count method was adopted to assess the status of aquatic birds in the existing water bodies (Sridharan 1989 and Bhupathy 1991). Point count method was used to assess the status of terrestrial birds (Bibby et al., 1992 and Hutto et al., 1986). The second technique adopted was area search method (Dieni and Jones 2002), a time area constrained survey technique that has been widely and commonly used in several bird monitoring programs.

3) Mammals

Status and distribution of different mammal species was quantified using Direct count Vehicle transects (travelling between the sampling location) (Burnham et al. 1980) and indirect evidences within the survey areas (Rodgers 1988 and Sale and Berkmuller, 1988). Indirect evidences like, Pellet, dung, tracks (Thommpson et al 1989, Allen et al 1996), scat count (Henke and knowlton 1995) and other signs were enumerated using standered method for nocturnal species (Daniels 1992). Presence of different faunal species was also substantiated by interviewing the local people and experts with pictorial representation.

3.8 THREATENED PLANTS AND ANIMALS AND CONCLUSION NOTE

This study reported a total of 127 plant species, 7 herpetofauna, 38 birds and 6 species of mamamals from the buffer zone of M/S. Macro Polymers Pvt. Ltd. However, no threatened biodiversity reported with highest density or richness from the core and buffer zones of the study area.

No true multi species forest type was recorded in the vicinity of the five kilometer radii in and around the project site. It clearly indicates the low productive potential of the terrestrial ecosystem. Since the project associated activities do not required any forest land neither ecosensitive areas, the terrestrial ecosystem is considerably free from the project related impacts. In addition, it has been suggested to plant several local tree and shrub species (with following important specific terams) under afforestation program to improve their abundance status as well as wilderness areas and several characteristics to improve adjoin land to project areas:

Tree and shrub species which are tall and bearing larger canopy cover and leaf area with different size classes (small, medium and larger) were suggested to maintain the different canopy levels at vertical profile.

Many fruit trees and shrubs were in the selection list to attract birds, squiral

and fruit eating bats which are locally available.

Mostly local tree and shrub species were recommended (See following list) to

provide habitat for faunal species, increase the species diversity and maintain

the naturalness.

In addition, all the terrestrial systems are dominated by resident species.

Common mammalian species like Jackal, Nilgai and Wild Boar were more

abundant close to the project sites. So, above wild and semi-wild tree/small

tree species were suggested for plantation to maintain the wilderness and to

provide habitat for faunal species.

3.9 SOCIO ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT

3.9.1 Introduction

Development of projects goes hand in hand with environmental impact and hence before any project is undertaken the damages in relation to the benefits should be measured. Unfortunately environmental issues are interdisciplinary, interactive, biological and probabilistic and because the information is always deficient, the outcome has a considerable degree of uncertainty or risk. This conflict between development and conservation is difficult to reconcile. Environmental baseline, ecological reconnaissance and environmental impact studies provide databases and quantitative assessment of environmental factors related to development projects.

Any developmental activity will influence the socioeconomic conditions of the population in the region and thus the Quality of Life (QOL). Socioeconomic survey is necessary in EIA/EMP report preparation to predict the changes on social and economic status. Hence baseline data for demographic characteristics, education, health, amenities and sensitive locations existing in and around the project area have been studied in the study area. For the study of socioeconomics 10 km radius around the site is selected.

The study area is agricultural land. The major language is Guajarati, Hindi and English with a conglomeration of different cultures like Hindus, Muslims and the Christians. It is the centre of Gujarati cultural activities and diverse traditions of different ethnic and religious communities

3.9.2 Socioeconomics

Village/town wise population, households, Occupation and Literacy status have been collected based on Census, 2011 in the following aspects:

1. Total population 08.Total worker females (main + marginal)

2. Population (0-6 years) 09. Main workers (Persons)

3. Literacy rate (Persons) 10. Marginal workers (Persons)

4. Literacy rate (Males) 11. Main workers (Persons)

5. Literacy rate (Females) 12. Non workers (Persons)

6. Total worker persons (main + marginal) 13. Non workers (Males)

7. Total worker males (main + marginal) 14. Non workers (Females)






A. Households

A 'household' is usually a group of persons who normally live together and take their meals from a common kitchen unless the exigencies of work prevent any of them from doing so. Persons in a household may be related or unrelated or a mix of both. However, if a group of unrelated persons live in a census house but do not take their meals from the common kitchen, then they are not constituent of a common household. Each such person was to be treated as separate households. The important link is finding out whether it was a household or not was a common kitchen. There may be one member households, two member households or multi-member households. There are nearly 72386 households are found in the study area. The list of Households is given in table 3.5.1.

B. Population

Village/ town wise population composition as per 2011 census is listed in table 3.5.1. The male & female population is 187902 and 173013 respectively. The SC and ST population from the total population is 12 % and 0 % respectively. The summarized data of population distribution is given in Table 3-26 and represented in Fig 3.11.

C. Occupational structure

Work is defined as participation in any economically productive activity with or without compensation, wages or profit. Such participation may be physical and/or mental in nature. Work involves not only actual work but also includes effective supervision and direction of work. It even includes part time help or unpaid work on farm, family enterprise or in any other economic activity. All persons engaged in 'work' as defined above are workers. Persons who are engaged in cultivation or milk production even solely for domestic consumption are also treated as workers. Occupational structure is divided in to 3 categories viz., Main workers, Marginal workers and Non workers.

The distribution data for workers and non workers is given in Table: 3-27 And Fig.3.12.

Main workers: Those workers who had worked for the major part of the reference period (i.e. 6 months or more) are termed as Main Workers. There are 117335 total main workers in this area.

Marginal workers: Those workers who have not worked for the major part of the reference period (i.e. less than 6 months) are termed as marginal workers. The total marginal workers are 20115.

Non workers: All workers, i.e., those who have been engaged in some economic activity during the last one-year, but are not cultivators or agricultural laborers or in Household Industry, are 'Other-Workers (OW)'. The type of workers that come under this category of 'OW' include all government servants, municipal employees, teachers, factory workers, plantation workers, those engaged in trade, commerce, business, transport banking, mining, construction, political or social work, priests, entertainment artists, etc. In effect, all those workers other than cultivators or agricultural laborers or household industry workers are other workers. The total Non workers are 223465.

D. Literacy

A person aged 7 years and above who can both read and write with understanding any language has been taken as literate. It is not necessary for a person to have received any formal education or passed any minimum educational standard for being treated as literate. People who were blind and could read in Braille are treated to be literates. A person, who can only read but cannot write, is treated as illiterate. All children of age 6 years or less, even if going to school and have picked up reading and writing, are treated as illiterates.

The total number of literates and illiterates are 328187 and 129776 respectively (Table 3.5.3 and Fig.3.5.3.

3.9.4 Organization and Manpower



In any commercial manufacturing company, it is very important to have a proper organization. This is more so in case the manufacturing involves various processes and different technical disciplines.

M/s. Macro Polymer Pvt. Ltd. is existing unit in private industrial area at Gujarat. Management control and areas of responsibility should be well defined. Hence, for the purpose of this report, the organization required for proposed plant, after commissioning of the new facilities, has been considered. Manpower requirements have been assessed keeping in view the degree of automation & computerization envisaged, minimum paper work, round the clock operations etc.

The total requirement is 146 consisting of 20 Local employees for the execution of work.

3.9.5 Impacts of the proposed project

The industry will provide direct and indirect Employment for many of the local population. It will create employment (20) and helps to improve the social status of the local community.

No Rehabilitation or land acquisition is needed for this industry. This project is not expected to generate any significant public controversy. Workers including casual workers such as truck drivers will be provided with basic amenities like safe water supply, low cost sanitation facilities, first aid, required personal protective equipments, etc. Workers will also be provided with sufficient infrastructural facilities including drinking water, toilets, sanitation facilities, power, easily accessible approach roads, communication, etc

Moreover unit would be carrying out CSR activities in nearby villages in the field of public health and green belt development; which would contribute to improvements the public health in the region to some extent. Other impacts of the proposed project are:

Any industrial growth will improve economic status of the people either directly or indirectly.

Creation of employment generation is an another positive impact anticipated from this plant

The development of infrastructure (roads, lighting etc) may not only helpful for transportation but also to improve aesthetic value of the site.

The proposed green belt plan also generates some employment (labor for plantation development) and provide hygienic environment.

Non- workers comprises of 61% of the total population in the study area. This intense unemployment fate can be for extent can be reduced.



Labour quarters will be provided for workers in operation phase of plant.

A slight increase in traffic during construction would result as workers arrive and depart the site and as materials and equipment are delivered. This temporary traffic increase would represent only small fluctuations within the normal range.

The Industry will also provide 2.5 % of the of their total project cost towards the Enterprise Social Commitment. Socio-economic development activities will be provided after public Hearing.

4 ANTICIPATED ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS AND MITIGATION MEASURES

4.1 Introduction Prediction of impacts is the most important part of Environmental Impact Assessment Report. Several scientific techniques and methodologies are available to predict impacts of project developmental activities on environment. Such predictions are overlaid on the baseline (pre project) status of environmental quality to derive the ultimate scenario of environmental conditions. It helps to prepare the Environmental Management Plan (EMP) which is required to be executed during the on-going activities for the proposed expansion project to minimize the adverse impacts on environmental quality.

Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is an activity or an attempt to identify, evaluate and communicate the environmental impacts due to the proposed project on the environment. For any proposed project, impacts are predicted depending upon the inputs from source, efficacy of pollution control equipment and capacity of receiving environment.

Environmental Impact Assessment Study for the proposed project includes:

・ Identification of all components of the proposed project and the environmental impacts that may be caused due to the proposed project.

・ Evaluation of the impacts i.e. qualitative and quantitative assessment of the impacts.

・ Communication to the general public, interested parties and controlling authorities.

4.2 Impact Identificaton

Considering that identification of significant environmental impact is essential in the preparation of EIA report, an attempt has been made here through the use of "Activity Effect" matrix.



OPERATION PHASE

This Phase of Product is important as it generates long term Impacts as the production starts. The primary impact will cause likely deterioration in Air, Noise and Land due to the process emission, automobile movement, etc.

4.2.1 ASSESSMENT OF IMPACTS

This section is devoted to the assessment of impacts due to the proposed industrial project, which are the most important components of EIA. Assessment involves determination of nature and extent of impacts due to the industrial activities or the actions involved. Here it is determined whether the environmental impacts will be:

1. Direct or Indirect 2. Impact low, medium, or high significance

Based on Environmental Impact Analysis, the Environmental Impacts under this step are quantitatively and qualitatively assessed. (Please refer Table No. 4.2)

Quantitative assessment with the help of a mathematical model has been done wherever possible. In other cases, the impact assessment has been qualitative which is based on available scientific knowledge and judgment. The mathematical model used for assessment in the present study includes “AERMOD VIEW - 8.5” Dispersion Model for air quality. For other cases i.e. Water, Noise, Land / Soil, Ecology, Socio-economic etc., the available scientific knowledge and judgments have been used.



Table 4-1: Impact Identification Matrix



Table 4-2 Assessment of Impact



4.3 IMPACTS ON ENVIRONMENT DURING CONSTRUCTION PHASE & MITIGATION MEASURES

During construction phase of the expansion project, activities like site cleaning, levelling, road laying, excavation, grading, transportation & storage of construction material, civil construction, mechanical fabrication & erection, greenbelt development and employ construction workers will be carried out.

During construction phase, major impacts anticipated will be increase in dust contamination and noise. However, these impacts will be limited up to construction period only. Impacts during construction phase and its mitigative measures are given in Table 4.3.

Table 4-3: Construction Phase: Impacts & its Mitigation Measures

Attributes Activities and Impact Mitigative Measures

Land Short term negative impacts due to Site cleaning, grading, excavation, etc

There will be very less impact on land due to construction activities because unit is existing very less civil work will be required for the proposed expansion

Air Short term negative impact due to dusting

during

Construction and transportation activities will be carried out during day time only. Minimum stock of materials will be maintained and covered with sheet. Barrier sheet will be provided to avoid dispersion of dust in surrounding area. Mask, helmet, goggles etc. will be provided to workers. Upwind side of the proposed expansion project will be constructed first to minimize wind effects.

Attributes Activities and Impact Mitigative Measures

economy due to temporary Employment generation

transportation, construction, fabrication etc which will help in improving socio-economic level of engaged people

Ecology Long term positive impact due to greenbelt

development

Greenbelt development will be started in construction phase. This will have positive impacts on local flora-fauna and also will act as absorbent of air pollution and noise. Will help in reducing soil erosion.

4.4 IMPACTS ON ENVIRONMENT DURING OPERATIONAL PHASE & MITIGATION MEASURES

4.4.1 Land Environment

Adverse impact may be occurred due to effluent disposal, chemical and hazardous waste storage & handling. Spillage of chemicals during loading, unloading and transfer, leakage of pumps, flange leakage in pipelines may create soil/land contamination. In addition to this, industrial and infrastructural development for the proposed expansion project as well as the subsequent development if done in haphazard way may change the land use pattern of area. Sewage will be properly treated in well designed sewage treatment plant and treated sewage conforming the discharge norms will be utilized for greenbelt development. Industrial effluent will be treated in effluent treatment plant followed by evaporation system. Condensate water will be reused in cooling activity. Thus, unit will maintain zero effluent discharge. Hazardous waste will be properly stored in designated storage area having roof and leachate collection system. Hazardous chemicals will be stored in designated area with dyke wall and spillage collection system. Thus, there will not be any possibility of leakage or spillage of chemicals, hazardous waste, effluent while handling, storage and disposal which can cause land contamination. Proposed expansion phase will be carried out in existing premises. As the project site is located in well developed industrial area, no major infrastructural development is expected for proposed expansion phase. Thus, no change will be occurred in land use pattern of the area.

4.4.2 Water Environment

For the Existing project and expansion phase, use of water and generation and disposal of wastewater may have negative impact on water environment. Use of water in the proposed project will effect on source of water. Adverse impact may be occurred on water environment due to discharge of untreated effluent in water body.

As per Guidelines of Central Ground Water Authority (CGWA), the existing project site falls in Safe Area in which industries no need to obtained No Objection Certificate (NOC) for ground



water abstraction from CGWA. As the total water requirement of the proposed project is 24 KL/day, unit does not require to obtain NOC from CGWA for use or abstraction of ground water as well as site is also in safe zone.

Out of 24 KL/day, 12 KL/day (Existing:6 KL/Day & Proposed 6 KL/Day) will be required for domestic activities, 5.0 KL/day Generated sewage has been send to septic tank and Proposed 5.5 KL/day will be treat as existing practice.12 KL/day for industrial activities (Scrubbing, boiler, cooling & washing). For cooling purpose total 52 KL/day will be used ( Existing 28 KL/day & proposed 24 KL/day), Out of 52 KL/day 40 KL/day will be used from treated waste water for cooling purpose. 4.5 KL/day treated water will be use for greenbelt development (Existing 3 KL/day, Proposed 1.5 KL/day).

4.4.3 Noise

There will be chances of increase in noise level due to the operation of plant and machineries for manufacturing activities, utility operations and transportation of products, raw materials and fuel. Exposure to continuous and extensive noise at a level higher than 85 dBA may lead to hearing loss. Continuous hearing loss differs from person to person with the level, frequency and duration of the noise exposed. Negative effects of noise on human beings are generally of a physiological and psychological nature. Hearing losses are the most common effects among the physiological ones. Blood pressure increases, heart beat accelerations, appearance of muscle reflexes, sleeping disorders may be considered among the other physiological effects. The psychological effects of noise are more common compared to the psychological ones and they can be seen in the forms of annoyance, stress, anger and concentration disorders as well as difficulties in resting and perception. Main source of noise in existing and proposed plant will be D. G. Set. However, the same will be stand by and operated only in case of main power failure. Proper and timely lubrication, oiling and maintenance will be carried out for all plant and machineries. Thus, there will not be any major source of higher noise generation which can be propagated in vicinity. Ear plugs and ear muffs will be provided to the workers working in high noise area. Greenbelt will act as a barrier to the spread of noise in the vicinity. Regular noise monitoring will be carried out at the prominent place in the premises. As far as the noise that will be generated due to the transportation is concerned, the same will be minimized transportation only in day time and by maintaining transportation vehicles properly.

4.4.4 Ecology

Greenbelt development will have positive impact on flora and fauna. There is no any sanctuary, national park, eco sensitive area within the 10 km area from the existing project



site. Also no rare and endanger flora and fauna have been reported during study in 10 km area surrounding to the project site. Proposed expansion will be carried out in same premises with no additional land or shed to be constructed for such purpose so no vegetation will be required to be cleared. Chances of adverse effect on ecology due to the proposed expansion project may be occurred due to air pollution caused by flue gases emission. However, unit has already adequate environmental management systems and the same will be efficiently operated in expansion phase also. Regular monitoring of various parameters will be carried out. In addition to this, unit will maintain zero effluent discharge for industrial effluent. Thus, there will not be any adverse impact occurred on surrounding ecology due to the proposed project.

4.4.5 Occupational Health

Several health related issues can be occurred with the workers of chemical industries due to long term exposure in dusting, noisy area, handling of some hazardous chemicals, gaseous emissions etc.

In expansion phase, drinking water and sanitation facilities will be provided to workers same as existing practices. All the necessary personal protective equipments already provided for the respective works which will be continue for expansion phase also. Units will provide such arrangements to minimize manual handling of chemicals and hazardous wastes. Regular health check-ups has been carried out for all the workers and record will be maintained. Medical, fire and safety trainings will be given time-to-time. Moreover, unit is committed to provide proper environmental management system and operate the same efficiently. Thus, there will not be any possibility of adverse impact on workers health.

4.4.6 Socio-economic Environment

Proposed expansion project will have long term positive impact on socio-economic environment due to generation of employment for about 20 people. Preference will be given to the local people from the nearby villages as per the requirement. Secondary job will be increased because of the day-to-day needs. This will increase the employment opportunity in the area as well as improve the living standard of the people in the area which also will help in improving educational, medical, health and sanitation awareness in the people. Resident as well as local employees will get benefited by facilities like drinking water, sanitation, first aid etc provided by client. Moreover, unit will carry out CSR activities in the nearby area in the field of health, sanitation, medical aids, educational aids and contribution in infrastructural development which will have beneficial impacts on socio-economic environment.



4.4.7 Air Environment

It is envisaged that during the operation phase impacts on air would arise due to the emission mainly from operation of Thermic Fluid Heater and occasionally from D. G. set. Unit has provided Multi Cyclone Separator as an existing Air Pollution Control Measures to control the emission of particulate matter in the flue gas. For the proposed expansion bag filter will be installed as air pollution control unit followed by existing cyclone separator to the Thermic Fluid Heater. The significant pollutants identified due to flue gas emissions are PM, NOx and SO2. There will not be any process gas emission from the resin manufacturing. There will be chances of fugitive emission from the manufacturing process and storage, handling and transportation of raw materials and products. Unit will take adequate measures to control fugitive emissions as described under section 2.11.2.3 of Chapter-2. Thus, the study of impacts for the fugitive & stationary emissions have been conducted to assess the potential impacts as well as to cite the efficiency of planned mitigation measures and to suggested further mitigation requirements. Impacts of emissions on air quality have been evaluated using dispersion model (AERMOD VIEW - 8.5) which are described below;

A. Input data of Flue gas stack

After implementation of the proposed project, these concentrations are found to be well below the permissible NAAQs norms for rural/residential zone and Industrial zone. Therefore, the proposed activity will not have any adverse impact on the air environment.

4.4.8 Existing Traffic & Vehicular Pollution

Traffic survey has been carried out on road at project site from. Based on the traffic survey hourly vehicular traffic has been calculated. Considering worst case scenario, average number of vehicles observed during 4 hours has been taken as hourly counts. Passenger Car Unit (PCU) has been calculated by applying PCU factor. Proposed load of trucks due to the movement of raw materials, fuel and products has been calculated. A design capacity of road has been taken from the Indian Road Code. Assessment of proposed traffic load is given below in Table 4.8.



From the above table, it can be concluded that even for considering the worst case; there will be minor increase in vehicular load due to the proposed project. However, the total traffic load even after the proposed project will be very low compare to the design capacity of roads. Adequate parking arrangements will be provided within the industrial premises.

As no major increase in traffic due to the proposed project, there will be less chance in increase in vehicular pollution. However, unit will take adequate measures by instructing transporter for using only PUC certified trucks/vehicles and carrying out regular service and maintenance of them.

CHAP-5: ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN 211

5 ENVIRONMNETAL MANAGEMENT PLAN

5.1 INTRODUCTION

Preparation of environmental management plan is required for formulation, implementation and monitoring of environmental protection measures during and after commissioning of projects. These plans indicate the details as to how various measures have been or are proposed to be taken including cost components as per requirement. Cost of measures for pollution prevention activities is treated as an integral component of the project cost.

A typical EMP shall be composed of the following:

1. Summary of the potential impacts of the proposal

2. Description of recommended mitigation measures

3. Description of monitoring programme to ensure compliance with relevant standards and residual impacts

4. Allocation of resources and responsibilities for plan implementation

5. Implementation schedule and reporting procedures

6. contingency plan when impacts are greater than expected

The Environment Management Plan (EMP) is required to ensure sustainable development in the area of the proposed plant. Hence, it needs to be an all encompass plan for which the proposed industry, Government, Regulating agencies like Pollution Control Board working in the region and more importantly the affected population of the study area need to extend their co-operation and contribution. The identification and quantification of impacts based on scientific and mathematical modelling.

The Management Action Plan aims at controlling pollution at the source level to the possible extent with the best available technology followed by treatment measures before they are discharged. The recycling and re-use of industrial waste not only reduces the waste generated but can be an economic gain to the industry.

Adopting latest and best process technology to achieve maximum yield with minimum waste generation.

Adopting good house keeping practices by maintaining cleanliness in premises and providing regular training and giving instructions for the same.

Carrying out energy audit at regular time interval. Installing flow meter at water intake and at effluent treatment plant. Using harvested rain water and reusing treated sewage for greenbelt development and

ultimately reducing fresh water consumption. Reusing spent/waste oil for lubrication in machineries and equipments within the

premises.

5.4 RAIN WATER HARVESTING

Rainwater Harvesting is generally putting back rainwater in to the underground formation, where it will be stored in underground reservoirs (Aquifer) so that we can draw it whenever we need it.

Need for Rainwater Harvesting

To reduce ground water pollution To augment the ground water storage and decline of water level To improve the quality of ground water To reduce the soil erosion

The harvested rain water can be used for flushing, washing, gardening, irrigation, fire fighting, etc. Rain water is the purest form for water available to us.

Advantages of Rainwater Harvesting

Provides self sufficiency at least reduces load on water supply



Reduces the cost of pumping of ground water as it raises ground water table Improves quality of ground water through dilution when recharge to ground water Reduces soil erosion in alluvium area Rainwater harvesting systems are simple which can be adopted by individuals.

Unit proposes to manufacture synthetic organic resin which will require some hazardous chemicals as raw material. Due to handling and storage of such chemicals, unit is planning to store rain water and use the same for activities like washing, cooling, etc. Calculation of rain water to be harvested based on yearly rainfall and runoff is given in Table 5.2.

6 ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM

6.1 Introduction Environmental monitoring describes the processes and activities that need to take place to characterise and monitor the quality of the environment. Environmental monitoring is used in the preparation of environmental impact assessments, as well as in many circumstances in which human activities carry a risk of harmful effects on environment. All monitoring strategies and programs have reasons and justifications which are often designed to establish the current status of an environment or to establish trends in environmental parameters. In all cases the results of monitoring will be reviewed and analysed statistically. Environmental monitoring program is designed to understand how the environment changes over time. Therefore, regular monitoring program of the environmental parameters is essential to take into account the changes in the environment. The objectives of environmental monitoring program are;

1. To verify the results of the impact assessment study in particular with regard to new development;

2. To follow the trend of parameters which have been identified as critical; 3. To check or assess the efficiency of the pollution control measures; 4. To ensure that new parameters, other than those identified in the impact assessment study,

do not become critical through the commissioning of new installations; 5. To check assumption made with regard to the development and to detect deviations in order

to initiate necessary measures; and 6. To establish a database for future Impact Assessment Studies for new projects.

6.2 ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM

The attributes, which merit regular monitoring, are air quality both at source and ambient atmosphere, water and wastewater quality, noise levels, ecological preservation, greenbelt development, socio-economic aspects, etc. Regular monitoring is carried out for the existing plant and will be continued with additional frequency and parameters as per the need after the proposed expansion project. Environmental monitoring program after the proposed expansion project is given in following Table 6.1.

7 RISK ASSEMENT AND SAFETY MEASURES

7.1 Objective, Philosophy & Methodology of Risk Assessment

The inherent property of material used in the process and the processes themselves pose the potential hazard in any chemical industries and a comprehensive risk assessment is needed for effective management of risk, which needs to be identified, assessed and eliminated or controlled. Prevention of human and property losses is integral to the operation and management of chemical process plants. This may be achieved through the selection of a technology that is inherently safe. Alternatively safety of plant design and/or operation can be audited by the application of hazard identification and risk analysis techniques, and adopting measures suggested by the risk analysis.

7.2 Objective, Philosophy & Methodology Of Risk Assessment

The main objective of risk assessment study to carry out risk analysis studies for industries, planning and management of industrial prototype hazard. Risk Assessment study of the proposed unit is carried out serve the following objectives;

Identification of safety areas Identification of hazard sources Generation of accidental release scenarios for escape of hazardous materials from the

facility Identification of vulnerable units with recourse to hazard indices Estimation of damage distances for the accidental release scenarios with recourse to

Maximum Credible Accident (MCA) analysis Suggest risk mitigation measures based on engineering judgement, reliability and risk

analysis approaches Up gradation of DMP

The main objective of the Risk Assessment study is to determine possible damage due to major hazards having damage potential to life and property. The secondary objective is to identify major risk in manufacture of chemicals, storage of chemicals and provide control though assessment. To prepare onsite, offsite, disaster management plan for control of hazards.

Philosophy:

The main philosophy of risk assessment is to find out the real cause of accident and then based on it to suggest appropriate remedial measures to prevent its recurrence.

To find out unsafe action negligence, omission or personal fault.

Methodology:

Risk analysis is carried out by following of sequential steps described as follow:






224

a. Hazard Identification—Identifying sources of process accidents involving release of hazardous material in the atmosphere and the various ways (that is scenarios) they could occur.

b. Consequence Assessment—Estimating the probable zone of impact of accidents as well as the scale and/or probability of damages with respect to human beings and plant equipment and other structures.

c. Accident Frequency Assessment—Computation of the average likelihood of accidents.

d. Risk Estimation—Combining accident consequence and frequency to obtain risk distribution to find out the quantitative Risk Assessment by using software (ALOHA) as follow.

Identify Vulnerable Zone for toxic dispersion, Pool fire, Tank on fire (Thermal Radiation), Flash Fire, Explosion over pressure (Vapor Cloud Explosion)

7.3 HAZARD IDENTIFICATION:

Hazard is the characteristic of any system or process which has the potential for accident. Identification of hazards, in presence of any hazardous chemicals generating units within the project facility is of primary significance in the analysis. For hazard identification total quantity of raw material and products to be stored within premises after expansion is taken into consideration.

Typical methods for hazard identification employed are:

Identification of major hazardous units based on Manufacture, Storage and Import of Hazardous Chemicals Rules, 1989 of Government of India (as amended in 2000)

Identification of hazardous units and segments of plants and storage units based on relative ranking technique, viz. Fire-Explosion and Toxicity Index (FE&TI).

7.3.1 Storage and handling of raw materials and products

In the unit, risk will be involved in storage, handling and transportation of various chemicals those will be handled in the form of raw materials and products. Details of the raw materials and products with storage are given in Table 7.1.

7.5 Risk Assessment and Consequence Analysis

7.5.1 Guidelines and Assumption used for Risk Assessment Scenarios:

Risk will be identified from hazards existing or reasonable assumed (predicted).

Two types of scenarios are possible.

(1) The worst case scenario which rarely possible and indicates total or catastrophic failure of the vessel or system be considering escape of whole mass in this case.

(2) The MCA (maximum Credible Accident) scenario which is mostly possible and most reasonable. It takes place when control measures fail e.g. leakage from outlet valve, joint or pipe, release from safety valve opening, vent opening, stack release, hole or puncture in pipe or vessel or transport vehicle etc. In case of uneven rapture, equivalent diameter considered for source strength calculation. Guidelines used:

World Bank has laid down the norms for development of MCAS in their publication “World Bank Technical Paper-55, Techniques for Assessing Industrial Hazards”. All MCAS are developed in accordance with this guideline. Essentially this guideline requires the following scenarios.

Catastrophic failure of main storage of all Hazardous chemical storages. Normally this applies to only the over ground storages as the underground storage would not cause an over ground accident scenario.

Among the various hazardous chemicals to be stored after expansion within the premises of M/s. Macro Polymers Pvt. Ltd. scenarios considered for catastrophic failure of storage tanks/ barrels/drums for the following chemicals is selected.

1. Phenol drum 2. Methanol drums 3. Cyclohaxanone storage drum 4. Formaldehyde(37 % solution) – 50 KL above ground storage tank 5. Ethylene Diamine

(ii) Connection Leak and weld failure: For the development of MCA scenarios these storage tanks are taken into consideration.

(1) 100% pipe diameter

(2) 20% Pipe diameter

For consequence analysis of storage chemicals following criteria has been selected:

In case of flammable gas release damage distances with heat energy effect or in case of explosion possibility (VCE, UVCE, BLEVE etc)

Over pressure damage distances due to bursting effect shall be calculated by appropriate computer software Aloha

For toxic damage criteria, Lethal toxicity levels LC50 are to be considered for risk assessment purpose. Where LC50 is not available, LOC, IDLH or STEL considered for calculation.

In case of possibility of toxic gas release damage distances with concentration.






234

7.5.2 Consequence Analysis:

The objectives of the consequence analysis are to:

Determine relevant toxic and flammable inventories;・

Analyze a represen・ tative set of spill or loss of containment cases;

Determine the consequences of each spill with regards to the potential of fire and ・

explosion and Off site impact to people, environment and properties.

The processes used to complete the analysis are;

D・ ischarge rate modeling;

Dispersion modeling; and・

Fire and Explosion Impact modeling.・

Spill, dispersion, and subsequent fire effects calculations are performed using the ALOHA Software.

ALOHA is an air dispersion model, which you can use as a tool for predicting the movement and dispersion of gases. It predicts pollutant concentrations downwind from the sources of a spill, taking into consideration the physical characteristics of the spilled material. ALOHA also accounts for some of the physical characteristics of the release site, weather conditions, and the circumstances of the release. Like many computer programs, it can solve problems rapidly and provide results in a graphic, easy to use format. This can be helpful during an emergency response or planning for such a response.

ALOHA provide output as amount of chemical discharged from the source as well as its concentration in air it takes into account different levels of concentrations for a specified chemical.

Software used for calculation- ALOHA (Areal locations of Hazardous atmospheres)

Aloha is a computer program designed especially for use by people responding to chemical accidents, as well as for emergency planning and training. ALOHA can predict the rates at which chemical vapors may escape into the atmosphere from broken gas pipes, leaking tanks and evaporating puddles. It can then predict how a hazardous gas cloud might disperse in the atmosphere after an accidental chemical release.

ALOHA provides output as amount of chemical discharged from the source as well as its concentration in air it takes in to account different levels of concentrations for a specified chemical. Different concentration levels are given below:

7.5.3 Damage Criteria:

Thermal Damage due to BLEVE, Flash Fire, Vapor Cloud Explosion:

BLEVE has high damage potential due to high intensity of radiation, causing damage to neighboring equipment, piping and structures. Also thermal radiation causes various degrees of burns on human body.

A Thermal Radiation Level of Concern (LOC) is a threshold level of thermal radiation, usually the level above which a hazard may exist.

ALOHA uses three threshold values (measured in kilowatts per square meter) to create the default threat zones:

Red: 10 kW/(sq m) ・ -- potentially lethal within 60 sec;

Orange: 5 kW/(sq m) ・ -- second-degree burns within 60 sec; and

Yellow: 2 kW/ (sq m) ・ -- pain within 60 sec.

The thermal radiation effects that people experience depend upon the length of time they are exposed to a specific thermal radiation level. Longer exposure durations, even at a lower thermal radiation level, can produce serious physiological effects. The threat zones displayed by ALOHA represent thermal radiation levels; the accompanying text indicates the effects on people who are exposed to those thermal radiation levels but are able to seek shelter within one minute. Below are some effects at specific thermal radiation levels and durations (on bare skin):

Overpressure Damage due to BLEVE:

Overpressure, also called a blast wave, refers to the sudden onset of a pressure wave after an explosion. This pressure wave is caused by the energy released in the initial explosion -- the bigger the initial explosion, the more damaging the pressure wave. Pressure waves are nearly instantaneous, traveling at the speed of sound.






236

An Overpressure Level of Concern (LOC) is a threshold level of pressure from a blast wave, usually the pressure above which a hazard may exist. ALOHA uses three threshold values to create the default threat zones:

・ Red: 8.0 psi (destruction of buildings);

・ Orange: 3.5 psi (serious injury likely); and

・ Yellow: 1.0 psi (shatters glass).

Toxic Release:

For toxic release, there is several hazard classification systems in use. Some chemicals have not been classified in every system. ALOH determines its default toxic Level of Concern (LOC) values based on the following:

a. AEGLs :

Acute Exposure Guideline Levels (AEGLs) are Toxic Levels of Concern (LOCs) that is used to predict the area where a toxic gas concentration might be high enough to harm people. The guidelines define three-tiered AEGLs as follows:

AEGL-1: The airborne concentration of a substance above which it is predicted that the general population, including susceptible individuals, could experience notable discomfort, irritation, or certain asymptomatic non sensory effects. However, the effects are not disabling and are transient and reversible upon cessation of exposure.

AEGL-2: The airborne concentration of a substance above which it is predicted that the general population, including susceptible individuals, could experience irreversible or other serious, long-lasting adverse health effects or an impaired ability to escape.

AEGL-3: The airborne concentration of a substance above which it is predicted that the general population, including susceptible individuals, could experience life-threatening health effects or death.

ALOHA only includes AEGL values with an exposure period of 60 minutes.

b. ERPGs:

The Emergency Response Planning Guidelines (ERPGs) are Toxic Levels of Concern (LOCs) that is used to predict the area where a toxic gas concentration might be high enough to harm people. The ERPGs are threetiered guidelines with one common denominator: a 1-hour contact duration.

Each guideline identifies the substance, its chemical and structural properties, animal toxicology data, human experience, existing exposure guidelines, the rationale behind the selected value, and a list of references.

ERPG 1: The maximum airborne concentration below which it is believed that nearly all individuals could be exposed for up to 1 hour without experiencing other than mild transient adverse health effects or perceiving a clearly defined, objectionable odor.

ERPG 2: The maximum airborne concentration below which it is believed that nearly all individuals could be exposed for up to 1 hour without experiencing or developing irreversible or other serious health effects or symptoms which could impair an individual's ability to take protective action.






237

ERPG 3: The maximum airborne concentration below which it is believed that nearly all individuals could be exposed for up to 1 hour without experiencing or developing life-threatening health effects.

The most important point to remember about the ERPGs is that they do not contain safety factors usually incorporated into exposure guidelines. Rather, they estimate how the general public would react to chemical exposure. Just below the ERPG-1, for example, most people would detect the chemical and may experience temporary mild effects. Just below the ERPG-3, on the other hand, it is estimated that the effects would be severe, although not life threatening. The ERPG should serve as a planning tool, not a standard to protect the public.

c. TEELs:

There are three TEEL levels that are important for responders to consider:

TEEL-1: Maximum concentration in air below which it is believed nearly all individuals could be exposed without experiencing other than mild transient health effects or perceiving a clearly defined objectionable odor.

TEEL-2: Maximum concentration in air below which it is believed nearly all individuals could be exposed without experiencing or developing irreversible or other serious health effects or symptoms that could impair their abilities to take protective action.

TEEL-3: Maximum concentration in air below which it is believed nearly all individuals could be exposed without experiencing or developing life threatening health effects.

d. IDLH:

Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health (IDLH) level is a limit originally established for selecting respirators for use in workplaces by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH). A chemical's IDLH is an estimate of the maximum concentration in the air to which a healthy worker could be exposed without suffering permanent or escape-impairing health effects. We recommend that appropriate respirator (as per NIOSH) be kept handy/easily available.

The IDLH was not designed to be an exposure limit for the general population. It does not take into account the greater sensitivity of some people, such as children and the elderly.

Note: For AEGLs, ERPGs and TEELs, the rank number increase with the hazard level, so that AEGL-3 is more hazardous than AEGL-1. Typically, the “3” values are used for the most hazardous (red) threat zones because they represent the threshold concentration above which health effects may be life threatening.

7.6.2 Occupational Health Surveillance Programme

A. Introduction:

Occupational Health Surveillance (also termed as medical surveillance for workers) constitutes an important component in efforts to protect and improve worker’s health. It is the systematic collection, analysis, and dissemination of disease data on groups of workers and is designed to detect early signs of work-related illness. A well-run medical surveillance program can aid in the early recognition of a relationship between exposure to a hazard and disease, in the assurance of the safety of new substances, and as an indicator of the effectiveness of existing control measures.

As a vital control measure, medical surveillance employs the use of questionnaires, physical examinations, ancillary testing, and biologic monitoring. Effective use of biologic monitoring – that is, the testing of various body specimens for the toxic






substance itself, its metabolites, or physiologic dysfunction. The Factories Act, 1948 and the rules framed thereunder provide for preemployment and periodical medical examinations of workers employed in industries with hazardous processes and dangerous operations under section 41-C and section 87 respectively.

B. Existing Occupational health surveillance programme:

A medical program has been developed for M/s Macro Polymers Pvt. Ltd., is based on site specific needs, location, and potential exposures of employees and workers to the various chemicals handled at the site. The program is designed by an experienced Factory Medical Officer ( MBBS with Associate Fellow of Industrial Health (AFIH) Certification in conjunction with the Site Safety Officer.

A site medical program consists of the following components:

A. Surveillance: Pre-employment screening. Periodic medical examinations (and follow-up examinations when

appropriate). Termination examination.

B. Treatment: Emergency Non-emergency (on a case-by-case basis)

C. Record-keeping D. Program review

Report and record occupational injuries and illnesses.

Review Site Safety Plan regularly to determine if additional testing is needed.

Review program periodically.

Focus on current site hazards, exposures, and industrial hygiene standards.

C. Exposure specific health status evaluation of worker:

As mentioned in above stated occupational health and surveillance programme, industry has already appointed Factory Medical Officer (MBBS with Associate Fellow of Industrial Health (AFIH) Certification) for periodical, pre-employed medical monitoring of all workers. In the existing industry workers exposure to aromatic hydrocarbon mainly Toluene and Xylene is higher compare to other chemicals, so medical monitoring and health testing are designed by considering organs which can be greatly affected by these chemicals. Additionally Audiometric test, Color Blindness test, Vision testing are also carried out regularly. Industry will continue same practice after the proposed expansion.






Industry is maintaining health status Health Register – Form: 32 prescribed under Rule 68 –T and 102 of Factory Act, 1948. Copy of the same is attached as Annexure – 6. Same procedure will followed after proposed expansion.

For the exposure levels of chemicals within work place, industry is regularly carrying out work place monitoring in prescribed format of Form .: 37, under Rule 12-B) Register containing particulars of monitoring of working environment required Under Section 7-A(a)(e). Copy of Form: 37 is attached as Annexure – 8. It can be observed from the monitoring results of VOC measured within premises that VOC values are within Permissible Exposure Level (PEL).

7.7.1 TREATMENT OF WORKERS AFFECTED BY ACCCIDENTAL SPILLAGE OF CHEMICALS

Hazards with Acute Exposure

Contact with skin may cause severe burns or systemic poisoning. Systemic effects may occur from any route of exposure, especially after skin

absorption.

Hazards with Chronic Exposure

Repeated or prolonged exposure may harm the respiratory system. Can irritate and inflame the airways.

Methanol affects the central nervous system, liver, and kidneys. Special Safety Precautions Prevent contact with skin by wearing neoprene gloves, lab coat, and resistant

apron. Wear safety glasses or a face shield if splashing may occur. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area, away from heated surfaces or ignition

sources. Skin contact requires immediate washing of the affected area with soap and

water. Remove contaminated clothing and launder before wearing again.

Procedure for treating workmen after skin contact.

Skin contact requires immediate flushing of the contaminated area with soap and water at a sink or emergency shower for a good fifteen minutes. Remove contaminated clothing. In case of eye contact, promptly flush the eyes with copious amounts of water for 15 minutes (lifting upper and lower lids occasionally) and obtain medical attention. If methanol is ingested, obtain medical attention immediately. If large amounts of methanol are inhaled, move the person to fresh air and seek medical attention at once. It is recommended to provide the safety shower and eyewash station in plant.

7.7.2 Antidotes

Antidotes for Methanol Ethanol (30 % solution from inside, 5 % solution from outside i.e. by intravenous

injection) Epicake syrup In case of acidosis give sodium bicarbonate






In case of delirium give diazepam 10 mg by intravenous injection Folinic acid (leucovorin 1 mg/Kg iv, 4 hourly) Antidotes for Formaldehyde Milk Activated Charcoal or Water Antidotes for Phenol Polyethylene glycol 300 or 400 Activated Charcoal and 240 ml Milk Antidotes for Toluene & Xylene Skin is affected then wash with plenty of water.

7.7.4 Minimization of the manual handling of hazardous substance

Whether moving materials manually or mechanically, employees should know and understand the potential hazards associated with the task at hand and how to control their work places to minimize the danger. Employers and employees should examine their workplaces to detect any unsafe or unhealthful conditions, practices, or equipment and take corrective action. Provide flameproof electrical motor & transfer chemicals through the pipelines. Use specially designed pallets to hold, move






raw materials, finished products through work areas. Minimize lifting of raw materials, heavy loads by using appropriate platforms, trolleys etc. Avoid the moving, manual handling of hazardous material.

7.7.5 DO’S AND DONT’S

7.9 DISASTER MANAGEMENT PLAN

It may be noted that industry has already prepared on-site emergency plan for the existing unit and same will be upgraded after the said expansion. General guideline to be considered to formulate on-site and off-site emergency plan after the proposed expansion is described in this section

Disaster

An emergency is said to have arisen when operations in the plant are not able to cope up with a potential hazardous situation i.e. loss of control of an incident cause the plant to go beyond its normal operating conditions, thus creating danger. When such an emergency evolves chain of events affect the normal working within the factory area and/ or which may cause injuries, loss of life, substantial damage to property and environment both inside and outside the factory and a disaster is said to have occurred.

The various steps involves in the process of Disaster Management can be summarized as:

Minimize Risk Occurrence (Prevention) Rapid Control (Emergency Response) Effectively Rehabilitate Damaged Areas (Restoration)

Disaster Management Plan is involved by careful scrutiny and interlinking of:

Types and causes of disaster Technical know-how






Resource availability

The various type of Disaster that may occur is

Due to the fire and Major spillage from tank Hurricane, cyclone and other natural calumniates.

7.9.1 Objectives of the Plan

The plan will set into action immediately after a fire occurs inside the plant. However fire hazard will be restricted to fuel tank storage area only and hence to major disaster is envisage. The plan is developed to make best possible of unit,

Rescue the victims and treat them suitable. Safe guard others (evacuating them to safer places). Contain the incident and control it with minimum damage. Identify the persons affected. Preserve relevant records and equipment needed as evidence incase on

inquiry. Rehabilitate the affected areas.

Basis of Plan

The basic guideline of the Plan is as given below:

Informative broacher on emergency will be distributed to each staff member of the plant and telephone numbers of key personnel to be contacted during an emergency will be placed at all the operator placement point in the plan.

Workers would be trained regularly on fire hazard drill, which will be organized once in a here mock drill from the safety and fire agency.

The industry will provide the wall surrounding the methanol storage area. 24 hours vehicle for service and in-plant first aid emergency kit would be

provided.

7.9.2 Post Disaster Analysis and Evaluation

When emergency is over, it is desirable to carry out a detailed analysis of the causes of the accident to evaluate the influence of various factors involved and to propose methods to eliminate them in future. Simultaneously, the adequacy of the disaster preparedness plan will be evaluated and any short comings will be rectified.

7.9.3 General Recommendations






All non-routine work etc. should be carried out under a permit system. Adequate number of caution boards high lighting the hazards of chemicals to be

handled, eye bath and emergency showers should be provided at critical location.

Adequate number of absorbents should be placed at accessible locations in the tank farm area as well as in the pump house that would enable to contain spills immediately.

Adequate color coding and labeling of the pipelines should be provided for easy identification of products proposed to be handled through them.

The damage distance due to any failure could be reduced, by reducing the time required to stop the leak, which in turn would reduce the quantity of spillage. The response time could be reduced by installing /maintaining instruments, effective communication system, etc.

It is recommended that rubber mats be provided in front of electrical panel of the entire plant with a view to prevent employees from receiving electric shocks.

It is suggested that all type of fire extinguishers be placed at appropriate places for easy access in case of emergency.

7.9.8 On Site Emergency Plan(OEP)

An emergency in the premises has the potential to cause serious injury or loss of lives or extensive damage to the property and/or environment and serious disruption both inside and outside the plant. In such cases sometimes outside agencies are required to call for help in handling the situation. The causative factors like plant/equipment failure, human error, earth quake, sabotage etc. will normally manifest in various forms viz. Fire, Explosion, Toxic release, structure collapse etc.

This OEP lays down the code of conduct of all personnel in the Plants and the procedures to be adopted by them in the event of an "Emergency". These procedures have been prepared taking into account the minimum strength of manpower available at all times in the premises. The individuals under the direction of the respective Team Leaders shall carry out the responsibilities assigned.

The emergency procedures outlined are suitable for round the clock coverage including holidays. These emergency procedures shall be followed as outlined in the OEP during general shifts as well.

The overall objectives of OEP are:

To control the situation and if possible eliminate as quickly as possible. To avoid confusion/panic and to attend the emergency with clear-cut line of

action. To minimize the loss of property to the plant as well as to our neighborhood. To safe guard the non-affected areas. To alert the neighborhood. To arrange head-count and rescue operations. Treatment of the injured. To safeguard others by timely evacuation. To prevent any cascade of emergencies.

A. Accident:

An accident is an unplanned event, which has a probability of causing personal injury or property damage or both. It may result in physical harm (injury or disease) to person (s), damage to property, loss to the company, a near miss or any combination of the effect.

A Major accident is a sudden, unexpected, unplanned event, resulting from uncontrolled developments during and industrial activity, which causes or has a potential to cause






i. Serious adverse effects immediate or delayed (death, injuries, poisoning or hospitalization) to a number of people inside the installations and/ or to persons outside the establishment.

ii. Significant damage may be caused to crops, plants or animals or significant contamination of land waters or air.

iii. An emergency intervention outside the establishment (evacuation of local population, stopping of local traffic).

iv. Any combination of above.

B. Emergency:

An emergency is the situation, which has potential to cause a large-scale damage or destruction to life or property or Environment or combination of these within or outside the factory. Therefore it is essential to have a laid down procedure to meet emergency systematically. In any industry, emergency can arise at any moment and this depends on the type of:

Structure Raw materials Machines Nearby Industries Location of the Industry etc.

C. Nature of emergency:

The "Emergency" specified in this plan will refer to occurrence of one or more of the following natural/manmade events.

E. Communication system:

Manual call point is installed within premises at various locations. Alarm Raising for Emergency by blowing the sirens installed The siren will be used for raising the emergency alarm and also for all clear

signals. Emergency Siren: The wailing alarm will be sounded intermittently at fixed

interval of 30 seconds for a period of two minutes in case of emergency, such alarm will signify the employees that an emergency has occurred and that the emergency services should be put into operation.

Incident Controller after assessing the situation will declare that emergency is over. Till the Incident Controller issues the declaration, all the leaders will adhere to the task and be present at the prescribed location.

All clear signal will be sounded through continuous siren for 1 minute. Even after the emergency is over a skeleton staff of the Rescue/Evacuation Team will be available at the site of emergency for at least 30 minutes to ensure that the situation is absolutely free from danger.

After the emergency is over, all the team leaders should meet at the Emergency Control Center and each team leader should submit a report to the Incident Controller about team performance and other details observed.

In addition to the above systems, Internal telephones, P.A.System, Mobile telephones, Computer System etc. will be used for communication.

If situation is beyond the control, the external agencies will be informed accordingly and asked for the help. Direct telephone, cell phone or messengers / runners may achieve this.

F. Assembly point:

In case of emergency some locations are considered as Assembly Points. Depending on the wind direction and location of emergency, Assembly Point will be declared. The employees should run across the wind direction and not against the wind direction.

Depending upon the location of the emergency the Incident Controller will fix the Assembly Point and Officer will announce the location of the Assembly Point. Employee’s attendance, visitors and contractors workmen register will be made available at the Assembly Point for head count.






Emergency control center:

outsiders, gate passes system for vehicles, checking of spark arrestors fitted to the tank lorries etc.

Strict enforcement of no smoking.

7.9.10 Offsite Emergency Preparedness Plan

Offsite emergency plan would follow the onsite emergency plan. When the consequences of an emergency situation go beyond the plant boundaries, it becomes an offsite emergency.






Offsite emergency is essentially the responsibility of the public administration. However, the plant management will provide the public administration with the technical information relating to the nature, quantum and probable consequences on the neighboring population. The offsite plan in detail will be based on those events, which are most likely to occur, but other less likely events, which have severe consequence, will also be considered. Incidents which have very severe consequences yet have a small probability of occurrence would also be considered during the preparation of the plan. However, the key feature of a good offsite emergency plan is flexibility in its application to emergencies other than those specifically included in the formation of the plan.

The roles of the various parties who will be involved in the implementation of an offsite plan are described below. Depending on local arrangements, the responsibility for the offsite plan would either rest with the plant management or with the local authority. Either way, the plan would identify an emergency coordinating officer, who would take the overall command of the offsite activities. As with the onsite plan, an emergency control centre would be setup within which the emergency coordinating officer can operate.

An early decision will be required in many cases on the advice to be given to people living "within range" of the accident - in particular whether they should be evacuated or told to go indoors. In the latter case, the decision can regularly be reviewed in the event of an escalation of the incident. Consideration of evacuation may include the following factors: In the case of a major fire. Only houses close to the fire are likely to need evacuation, although a severe smoke hazard may require this to be reviewed periodically; and if a fire is escalating and in turn threatening a store of hazardous material, it might be necessary to evacuate people nearby, but only if there is time; if insufficient time exists, people should be advised to stay indoors and shield them from the fire. This later case particularly applies if the installation at risk could produce a fireball with very severe thermal radiation effects.

Although the plan will have sufficient flexibility built in to cover the consequences of the range of accidents identified for the onsite plan, it will cover in some detail the handling of the emergency to a particular distance from each major hazard works.

Figure 7-4: Off-Site Disaster Management Plan






A. Aspects Proposed to be considered in the Offsite Emergency Plan

The main aspects, which should be included in the emergency plan, are:

Organization

Detail of command structure, warning systems, and implementation procedures, emergency control centres. Names and appointments of incident controller, site main controller, their deputies and other key personnel.

Communications

Identification of personnel involved, communication center, call signs, network, list of telephone numbers.

Specialized Knowledge

Details of specialist bodies, firms and people upon whom it may be necessary to call e.g. those with specialized fuel knowledge, laboratories.

Voluntary Organizations






Details of organizers, telephone numbers, resources etc

Fuel Information

Details of the hazardous substances stored and a summary of the risk associated with them.

Meteorological Information

Arrangements for obtaining details of weather forecasts and weather conditions prevailing at that time

Humanitarian Arrangements

Transport, evacuation centres, emergency feeding, treatment of injured, first aid, ambulances and temporary mortuaries.

Public Information

Arrangements for (a) Dealing with the media press office; (b) Informing relatives

Assessment of Emergency Plan

Arrangements for:

Collecting information on the causes of the emergency; and Reviewing the efficiency and effectiveness of all aspects of the emergency plan.

B. Role of the Emergency Co-ordinating Officer

The various emergency services would be co-ordinated by an Emergency Coordinating Officer (ECO), who will be designated by the district collector. The ECO would liaison closely with the site main controller. Again depending on local arrangements, for very severe incidents with major or prolonged offsite consequences, the external control would be passed to a senior local authority administrator or even an administrator appointed by the central or state government. The ECO will be equipped with address and phone numbers of important agencies.

a. Role of the Local Authority

The duty to prepare the offsite plan lies with the local authorities. The emergency planning officer (EPO) appointed should carry out his duty in preparing for a whole range of different emergencies within local authority area. The EPO should liaison with the plant, to obtain the information to provide the basis for the plan. This liaison should ensure that plan is continually kept up to date. It will be responsibility of the EPO to ensure that all those organizations which will be involved offsite in handling the emergency, know of their role and are able to accept it by having for example,






sufficient staff and appropriate equipment to cover their particular responsibilities. Rehearsals for offsite plans should be organized by the EPO.

b. Role of Police

Formal duties of the police during an emergency include protecting life and property and Controlling traffic movements. Their functions should include controlling bystanders, evacuating the public, identifying the dead and dealing with casualties, and informing relatives of death or injury.

c. Role of Fire Authorities

The control of a fire should be normally the responsibility of the senior fire brigade officer who would take over the handling of the fire from the site incident controller on arrival at the site. The senior fire brigade officer should also have a similar responsibility for other events, such as explosions. Fire authorities in the region should be appraised about the location of all stores of flammable materials, water and foam supply points, and firefighting equipment. They should be involved in onsite emergency rehearsals both as participants and, on occasion, as observers of exercises involving only site personnel.

d. Role of Health Authorities

Health authorities, including doctors, surgeons, hospitals, ambulances and so on, should have a vital part to play following a major accident, and they should form an integral part of the emergency plan. For major fires, injuries should be the result of the effects of thermal radiation to a varying degree, and the knowledge and experience to handle this in all but extreme cases may be generally available in most hospitals.

Major off site incidents are likely to require medical equipment and facilities additional to those available locally, and a medical "mutual aid” scheme should exist to enable the Assistance of neighboring authorities to be obtained in the event of an emergency.

e. Role of Government Safety Authority






This will be the factory inspectorate available in the region. Inspectors are likely to satisfy themselves that the organization responsible for producing the offsite plan has made adequate arrangements for handling emergencies of all types including major emergencies. They may wish to see well documented procedures and evidence of exercise undertaken to test the plan. In the event of an accident, local arrangements regarding the role of the factory inspector will apply. These may vary from keeping a watch, to a close involvement in advising on operations.
