The total water demand works out to approximately 7.98 MLD. SN Particulars Water Demand (MLD) 1 Total Water Demand Capacity of STP Treated water demand

5 4 Fresh Water Demand SEWAGE GENERATION Construction phase: Quantity of sewage generated during the construction phase will be negligible and proper management will be done by providing mobile toilets. Septic tank & soak pit will be provided on site for treatment. Operational Phase: Sewage generated during operation phase will be treated in STP capacity of 14.4 MLD. 8.0 WASTE GENERATION, COLLECTION, TRANSPORT AND DISPOSAL Solid waste would be generated both during the construction as well as during the operation phase. The solid waste expected to be generated during the construction phase will comprise of excavated materials, used bags, bricks, concrete, MS roads, tiles, wood etc. The following steps are to be followed for the management solid waste: Construction yards are used for storage of construction materials. The excavated material such as topsoil and stones will be stacked for reuse during later stages of construction. Excavated top soil will be stored in temporary constructed soil bank and will be reused for landscaping of the Project. Remaining soil will be utilized for back filling / road work /raising of site level at locations. Waste generation during Operation Phase During operation phase municipal solid waste generated from the project would be TPD. Following arrangements will be made at the site in accordance to Municipal Solid Wastes (Management and Handling) Rules, Collection and Segregation of waste 1. Collection system will be adopted for collection of domestic waste in colored bins. 2. Biodegradable & non biodegradable waste shall be separately collected to ensure segregation at source. 3. Litter bin will also be provided in open areas. Treatment of Bio-Degradable wastes Biodegradable /Organic and Horticultural Waste would be treated in Organic Waste Converter installed at site. Generated compost would be used as manure for horticulture development. 21

6 Non Biodegradable waste Recyclables, such as plastic, rubber, wood pieces, glass etc will be segregated from non biodegradable waste & sold to authorize vendors for recycling & remaining inert waste shall be sent to land fill site through authorized vendor as per the guidelines of Municipal Solid Wastes (Management and Handling) Rules, POWER REQUIREMENT DETAILS The power supply shall be supplied by Jharkhand Bijli Vitaran Nigam Limited (JBVNL). 9.1 BACKUP POWER DETAILS There is provision of DG sets for power back for services. The DG sets will be equipped with acoustic enclosure to minimize noise generation and adequate stack height for proper dispersion. Energy Conservation Measures: The energy conservation measures shall be adopted to minimize the demand on non- renewable resources and maximize the utilization efficiency of these resources. The benefits of Energy Conservation measures are as follows: Reduced Energy Consumption without sacrificing comfort levels. Reduced destruction of natural resources. Reduced air pollution. Reduced Pollution Loads. Increased user productivity STORM WATER DRAINAGE & RAIN WATER HARVESTING SYSTEM A network of covered/underground storm water drain will be developed to collect rain water runoff from roof tops, hard & soft areas roads, paths, parking & open areas, vegetated surfaces planned on the ground. Strom water would be channelized to rain water harvesting structure designed to charge the rain water to ground water aquifer. The storm water will pass through the de-silting chamber/oil & grease separator before finally discharging to percolation tank LANDSCAPE & SHELTERBELT DEVELOPMENT Green area would be used for peripherial tree plantation, road side plantation & remaining area would be used for plantation of shrubs, lawn, and ground cover. There are several trees which will be planted along the sides of the Project boundary. For tree plantation preference will be given to local tree with large leafs & dense foliage for shading & reduction of air & noise pollution PARKING FACILITIES For smooth circulation & reduction of pollution separate entry & exits with gates of adequate sizes are planned for the different type of vehicles proposed in the project & also for the movement of fire engine. 22

7 13.0 Risk and Hazards 13.1 Seismicity Based on the tectonic features and records of earthquake, a Seismic Zoning map has been developed for the country by Bureau of Indian Standard (BIS). The area under study falls in Seismic Zone-III. Suitable seismic coefficients in horizontal and vertical directions respectively, will be adopted while designing the structures Emergency Lighting The emergency lights operated on battery power would be provided at appropriate locations Fire Safety Fire Fighting Designed: As per National Building Code 2016 Provision fire detection, alarm & rescue system. Provision of infrastructure required for suppression of fire as per norms. Provision of fire escape staircase Provision of Fire Extinguishers, Fire Hose Cabinet, Internal & External hydrant as per applicable codes & norms of local fire department ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION MITIGATION MEASURES 14.1 Air Pollution Increased traffic generation due to project (Parking space proposed for the project is not going to cause significant increase in atmospheric concentration of gases and will not result in heat island formation as adequate landscaping has been provided. Mitigation Measures for Air Pollution during Construction Stage Air quality around the project site will be impacted during construction stage. Various construction activities especially related to handling of loose material are likely to generate fugitive dust that will affect the air quality of the surrounding area of the project site. To minimize such impacts following measures has been proposed: All the loose material either stacked or transported will be provided with suitable covering such as tarpaulin, etc. Water sprinkling shall be done at the locations where dust generation is anticipated. To minimize the occupational health hazard, proper personal protective gears i.e. mask shall be provided to the workers who are engaged in dust generation activity. Mitigation Measures for Air Pollution during Operational Stage Operation of DG Sets is the only source of air pollution during operational phase. Also, it is proposed to minimize air pollution by providing plantation as buffer on the periphery of the project site and on the open spaces. 23

8 14.2 Water Pollution The source of water pollution during construction and operation phase is due to waste water generated from toilets and washing Noise Environment It is envisaged that within the project there shall be maximum movement of light & heavy motor vehicles like cars, trucks and 2-wheelers which will lead to some increase in noise levels. It is proposed to minimize the noise levels by providing plantation as buffer on the sides of internal roads, on the open spaces inside and around the periphery of whole complex. Proper maintenance of the internal roads will also be carried out and Informatory signboards shall be provided to encourage vehicle owners to maintain their vehicle, not to blow horns and follow the emission standards fixed by Government Authorities. DG sets will be kept in the acoustic chamber and ambient noise will be within the CPCB standard limits. Mitigation Measures for Noise Pollution during Construction Stage During the construction stage, expected noise levels shall be in the range of db (A) which will decrease with increase in distance as per the Inverse Square Law. Administrative as well as engineering control of noise will be implemented. Isolation of noise generation sources and temporal differentiation of noise generating activities will ensure minimum noise at receiver s end. To prevent any occupational hazard, ear muff / ear plug shall be given to the workers working around or operating plant and machinery emitting high noise levels. Use of such plant or machinery shall not be allowed during night hour. Careful planning of machinery operation and scheduling of operations shall be done to minimize such impact. Mitigation Measures for Noise Pollution during Operation Stage It is envisaged that there shall be maximum movement of light & heavy motor vehicles like cars, trucks and 2-wheelers which will lead to some increase in noise levels. It is proposed to minimize the noise levels by providing plantation as buffer on the open spaces and around the periphery of whole complex.
