23 M/s. ANNEXURE II Annexure of Drilling & Blasting The Stone & Metal is quarried by opencast method, semi-mechanized with deep hole drilling, blasting, loading and transporting vehicles. The pit is developed by the open cast method comprising the following parameters: Bench height 6 m Bench width 6 m (min.) and 6 m (max.) Bench face 70 inclination Overall pit slope 60 Ramp length 120 m Ramp width 10 m The opencast Quarry operations consist of four major operations viz. drilling, blasting, loading and transport. Drilling is carried out using 10'/20' rods of 41/2 dia. The blast hole are drilled with an average inclination of from the vertical to achieve best results in blasting as well as to maintain an average face slope of 600 to 700 for the benches. Type of explosive used and powder factor: For charging the blast holes, slurry with ANFO are used A-7

24 M/s. Annexure of ANNEXURE - III Water Requirement Water requirement for the project is mainly for Domestic source, maintaining the green belt and also for sprinkling on the haulage roads to mitigate dust emissions. The water shall be drawn from nearby villages and also provided storm water tank with 20 KL capacity. The water requirement of the project is presented in Table A-5. Table A-5 Water Requirement S. No. Water Usage Quantity KLD 1 Wet drilling operation Water sprinkling on haul roads +1/4th for waste dump Domestic Green 0.2 KL 2 times a day 0.4 Total 6.6 A-8

25 M/s. Annexure of ANNEXURE IV Waste Management plan and Dump area During the plan period a total volume of m 3 will be excavated out of which m 3 of Stone and Metal will be produced and the rest m 3 will go as waste. The waste dumps in the form of soil and waste rock shall be dumped at the southwestern side of the Q.L area. It is planned to utilize the waste material for other uses like back filling of excavated area, for making roads and for some other general purposes. There is a good scope for the above market, and certainly partial utilization of the salvaged material from the quarry wastes reduces the quantum of waste and management is aware of this and will make efforts for utilization of quarry generated waste to the extent possible. By this way the handling of solid waste is expected to be minimized. A-9
