Environmental clearance is subject to obtaining clearance under the Wild life (Protection) Act, 1972 from the competent authority. All the conditions stipulated by the State pollution Control Board in their Consent to establish should be effectively implemented. The environmental clearance is subject to grant of forestry clearance. The project proponent shall obtain requisite prior forestry clearance under the Forest (Conservation Act), 1980 for working in the forest area. The mining operations shall be restricted to above ground water table and it should not intersect groundwater table. Prior approval of the Ministry of Environment & Forests and Central Ground Water Authority shall be obtained for mining below water table. The authenticated map is showing non-existence of any ecologically sensitive area such as national park/wild life sanctuary/ biosphere reserve/elephant reserve, etc. within 10Km radius. As such the authenticated map indicating non-existence of any National sanctuaries, Biological reserves, Elephant reserves, etc. within 10Km radius buffer. Besides this site specific wild life conservation plan got submitted at authority for approval. This is under process of approval. After due compliance, it has granted consent to operate. The copy of its compliance is enclosed as annexure-1. Presently the operations are restricted to DLC (Forest) broken-up forest area only and will extend further in FC granted area of Ha. The copy of the same is enclosed as annexure-2. As such mining activity does not intersect ground water of the area and we will abide by the condition.

2 Sl. No SPECIFIC CONDITIONS PRESENT STATUS vi vii The project proponent shall ensure that no natural watercourse and/or water resources shall be obstructed due to any mining operations. The top soil should temporarily be stored at earmarked site only and should not be kept unutilized for a period more than 3 years. The topsoil should be used for land reclamation and plantation. We ensure that no natural water course will be obstructed due to our Mining Operations. In this regard Guard wall got provided at the Bank of Nalla maintaining the safety zone and site specific surface run off management measures like; de-silting pits, linear re-charge structures, etc. were provided. The top soil generated during the mining, got utilized for plantation. We will follow the same in the future activity also. viii ix Over burden shall be stacked at earmarked dump site(s) only and should not be kept active for long period. The maximum height of the dump should not exceed 30m having three terraces of 10 m each. The overall slope of the dump shall not exceed 27 degree. The OB dump should be scientifically vegetated with suitable native species to prevent erosion and surface run off. In critical areas, use of geo textiles shall be undertaken for stabilization of the dump. Monitoring and management of rehabilitated areas should continue until vegetation becomes self-sustaining. Compliance status should be submitted to the Ministry of Environment & Forests and its Regional office, Bhubaneswar on six monthly basis. Catch drains and siltation ponds of appropriate size should be constructed to arrest silt and sediment flows from mine working, soil, OB and mineral dumps. The water so collected should be utilized for watering the mine area, roads, green belt development etc. The drain should be regularly de-silted particularly after Presently OB is being stacked inside ML Area and the Dump height is being maintained with terracing. It has also developed with garlanding drain and retaining wall of 720 m length along with 11,000 Sq. Meter Coir Geo-textiles towards the vegetation & stabilization for critical areas of dump.
