As a part of its expansion program to enhance the capacity to 16 MTPA, JSW Steel is in the process of setting up additional facilities which will take the crude steel capacity to 13 MTPA by Dec The original proposal of expansion of crude steel capacity at Vijayanagar from 10 MTPA to 16 MTPA, primarily involved in setting up of two 3.0 MTPA Blast furnaces like the existing BF 3&4 units which were set up during the expansion of the steel plant from 4.0 MTPA to 10.0 MTPA. However, with the upgradation of BF-1 and planned upgradation of BF-3 to country s largest blast furnace of 5560 m3 BF, the capacity of crude steel is being enhanced from 10 MTPA to 13 MTPA. JSW Steel is currently in the process of installing a similar Blast furnace of 5560 M3 capacity in India at Dolvi. Keeping in view of the advantages of larger blast furnaces and JSW Steel s own expertise developed over the years in operating large blast furnaces, it is proposed to install a large blast furnace of 5560 m3 in place of 2-1

13 2 - Introduction of the Project (cont d) 4100 m3 blast furnace proposed in the original project of expansion of capacity from 10 MTPA to 16 MTPA. With this major change together with optimization of existing and proposed facilities, the capacity of crude steel is being enhanced from 16 MTPA to 18 MTPA. 2.2 Brief Description of the Nature of the Project The brief profile of the expansion project is as follows: Hot Metal MTPA Crude Steel MTPA Saleable products Hot Rolled Coils/Plates MTPA Cold rolled products 6.40 MTPA (Cold rolled annealed & galvanized coil, color coated coil. Tinplate coil, Silicon steel) Long Products (Bar, Wire Rod,) 4.00 MTPA The proposed production of crude steel and subsequent rolling would be accomplished via Blast Furnace (BF)-Basic Oxygen Furnace (BOF)-Caster route, followed by hot, cold rolling. The project falls under category A, Section 3 (a) of EIA Notification September 2006 and amendment thereof vide Notification No. S.O 3067 (E) dated 1 st December NEED FOR THE PROJECT AND ITS IMPORTANCE TO THE COUNTRY In , production of crude steel was about MTPA in the country with a growth of approximately 5.5% over India s per capita steel consumption is 61 kg, much lower than the global average of 208 kg. India s consumption of finished steel products has grown by 3.4 per cent in compared with With some of the measures taken by the Government, India has become a net exporter of steel products. Indian economy is rapidly growing with key focus on infrastructure and construction sector. Several initiatives mainly, affordable housing, expansion of railway networks, development of domestic shipbuilding industry, opening of defense sector for private participation, and the anticipated growth in the automobile sector, are expected to create significant demand for steel in the country. 2-2

14 2 - Introduction of the Project (cont d) Major factors which carry the potential of raising the per capita steel consumption in the country are listed below: Infrastructure improvement initiatives, such as Smart Cities project, 'Housing for All by 2022', Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation (AMRUT), Manufacturing growth driven by Make-in-India initiative, Encouraging use of Made in India steel for various projects and levying of anti-dumping duties on certain steel products from Brazil, Russia, China, Korea, Japan and Indonesia. National Mineral Development Corporation expected to increase the iron ore production favoring steel production Emergence of the rural market for steel buoyed by projects like MGNREGS, development of Rurban Clusters under the Shyama Prasad Mukherjee Rurban Mission, Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana, among others. As per the National steel policy (NSP) 2017, in order to achieve expected demand of 300 MT and per capita consumption of 160 kg of finished steel by , steel demand would need to grow at a CAGR of around per cent during the period against a CAGR of 3.5 per cent-4 per cent over the last 5 years. This would mean that capacity additions planned by most of the major steel players need to come on stream in next few years. As per NSP 2017, it is aimed to domestically produce value added steelproducts with focus on exploiting the existing iron ore deposits. These factors would emphasize on the need for the installation of the proposed projects. 2.3 DEMAND-SUPPLY GAP, IMPORTS VS. INDIGENOUS PRODUCTION, EXPORT POSSIBILITY & DOMESTIC/EXPORT MARKETS The total consumption of steel is estimated at MT in FY16. Driven by rising infrastructure development, growing demand for automotives and lower per capita consumption compared to international average, steel consumption is expected to reach 104 MT by the end of The consumption of steel during FY17 (Q1) was estimated at MT. World Steel Association (WSA) has 2-3

SIZE OR MAGNITUDE OF OPERATION The proposed project after its completion will facilitate in production of 18.0 MTPA of crude steel along with value added long and flat steel products to meet the increasing demand of the customers and country`s infrastructure development. The proposed facilities will be set up in an area of about 450 acres within the existing steel plant complex. 3.4 LAYOUT The plant lay out showing the location of the proposed facilities is shown in Fig-3.2 Fig-3-2 Location of Project site and surrounding 10 km area 3.5. PROJECT DESCRIPTION WITH PROCESS DETAILS The basis of earlier expansion of crude steel capacity from 10 MTPA to 16.0 MTPA was based on the premise of installing two Blast Furnaces each of 3.0 MTPA. However, the first 3.0 MTPA expansion from 10 MTPA to 13 MTPA has been realized by augmenting the capacity of BF-1 and BF-3 during their respective campaign repairs. The BF-1 capacity has been enhanced from 0.9 MTPA to 2.5 MTPA and BF-3 from 3.0 MTPA to 4.5 MTPA by installing the Country`s largest Blast furnace of 5560 m3, expected to be commissioned by Dec JSWSL is also in the process of setting up a similar capacity Blast furnace at its Dolvi unit, the first such furnace in India. Considering the advantages of large capacity Blast furnaces, in terms of higher productivity, energy efficiency and environment friendliness, it is now proposed to install a 4.5 MTPA Blast furnace in lieu of BF-5 of 3.0 MTPA proposed at the 16 MTPA stage of expansion. This will lead to enhancing the capacity from

23 3 - Project Description (cont d) MTPA to 17.5 MTPA (in place of 13 MTPA to 16.0 MTPA as proposed earlier). Further, due to optimization in some of the existing Blast furnaces due to changes in iron ore quality, the overall hot metal production including from two Corex units works out to Mtpa. Accordingly, it is proposed to enhance the crude steel production to 18.0 MTPA, as against the 16.0 Mtpa planned earlier. The proposed production of crude steel and subsequent rolling would be accomplished via Blast Furnace (BF)-Basic Oxygen Furnace (BOF)/Zero power furnace(zpf)-caster route, followed by hot & cold rolling for production of flat & long products. The highlights of the proposed expansion are: a. Installation of the largest blast furnace of the country to produce 4.5 MTPA of hot metal (in place of a smaller capacity Blast furnace of 3.0 MTPA proposed in the 16 MTPA expansion) b. Installation of Zero Power furnace(zpf), for manufacturing steel from hot metal & DRI, without use of electrical energy (in place of Electrical Arc Furnace.) c. Augment the capacity of BOF from 200 T capacity to 350 T capacity d. optimization in some of the existing BF units due to changes in iron ore quality. e. Installation of 5.0 MTPA HSM in place of 3.6 MTPA unit an new 2.3 MTPA CRM-3 The flowsheet of manufacturing steel is shown in Fig-3.3.(See last page) The changes or additional facilities proposed in the expansion and optimization being carried out in the 16 MTPA units in the propose project to produce 18 MTPA of crude steel and associated finished products are given in Table 3-1. and Table 3-2. However, there are no changes in the overall capacities of following units as proposed in the 16 MTPA stage even at 18.0 MTPA stage. 1. Ore Beneficiation plant : 19.5 MTPA 2. Coke ovens : 8.0 MTPA 3.

25 3 - Project Description (cont d) The following write-up gives the details of the additional/modified process units which are being proposed in the 18.0 MTPA expansion Ore Beneficiation Plant: There are two Ore beneficiation plants existing with a capacity to produce 19.5 MTPA of iron ore concentrate. The OBP-1, which was installed during the 4.0 MTPA stage of steelmaking was based on dry grinding of iron ore in three ball mills to produce green pellets. In view of heavy dust pollution during grinding, all the new beneficiation units installed in the OBP-2 area were based on wet grinding. The slurry after grinding is thickened and filtered in special filters to produce pellet feed for the pellet plant. The OBP-1 unit with dry grinding is planned to be shifted to OBP-2 area with wet grinding. The iron ore concentrate slurry is pumped to PP-1, where the slurry is filtered and used for pellet production. The proposal is to shift the unit to OBP- 2 area. There is no change in the overall capacity of the OBP units, which is 19.5 Mt of beneficiated product Pellet Plant The blast furnace burden will comprise of 42.5% sinter. 37.5% pellet and 20% C-Ore. Pellet is also required for production of DRI in the gas based DRI plant and as feed material in Corex 1&2. Currently the existing PP-1&2 have an installed capacity each of 5.0 MTPA and are producing pellets at a rate of 4.0 MTPA each. To meet the total requirement of pellets at 18.0 MTPA stage, it is envisaged that one pellet plant of 6.8 MTPA capacity would be installed. Pellet requirement for DR plant, Corex and blast furnaces would be met from these three pellet plants. The new large capacity pellet plant is being built in lieu of Sinter Plants 5 & 6, to reduce pollution from sintering process.

The estimated annual requirements of major raw materials at 18.0 Mtpa is presented below. Sl. No. Major Raw materials Estimated Quantity, tons 1 Coking Coal 8,340,000 2 Iron ore (Lump) 7,310,000 3 Iron ore fines (Medium grade) 24, 100,000 4 Iron ore fines(high grade) 1,500,000 5 PCI coal 3,320,000 6 Limestone 6,350,000 7 Dolomite 3,500,000 8 Steam coal 1,500,000 9 Bentonite 150, Quartzite 370, Pet Coke for Coke ovens 900, RESOURCE OPTIMIZATION/RECYCLE & REUSE ENVISAGED IN THE PROJECT The plant has been designed with state-of-art technology for optimum consumption of energy & other resources. By product fuel gases would be reused within the plant as in-plant fuel and also to produce power in the CPP. Corex gas/coke oven gas would be used as reductant to produce DRI. In addition, adopting a compact layout for the Plant would enable to optimise the utilisation of land, which is another critical resource. By utilising the fines and scrap generated during the process within the plant for the production process, usage of raw materials is optimised. Water consumption would also be optimised 3-18

38 3 - Project Description (cont d) by treatment of water to the extent possible and recycle of treated water as make-up in the network. Solid byproducts would be reused to the extent feasible. BF slag and fly ash would be used to produce cement in captive cement manufacturing unit. 3.8 AVAILABILITY OF WATER AND POWER Water JSW Steel receives the make-up water from two sources, viz Tunga Bhadra Dam (32 MGD through pipeline of 35 KM) and Alamatti dam (40 MGD through a pipeline of 178 Km). This allocation of a total of 3,30,000 m3/day was obtained during the expansion of the steel plant from 4.0 MTPA to 10.0 MTPA. In the expansion of capacity from 10MTPA to 16 MTPA, no additional allocation was sought. The total water requirement at 18 MTPA will be as under: Steel plant : 1,44,000 m3/d Captive power plant & JSWEL : 93,000 m3/d Township : 24,000 m3/d Losses & Evaporation : 40,000 m3/d Total for JSWSL complex : 3,01,000 m3/d The recovery of water from the existing seven RO Plants is 22,000 m3/d. Further, additional 8400 m3/d of RO permeate will be recovered from the ZLD plant of Coke-5 and a centralized RO plant. JSWSL has established a Total water management approach, as a result the water is extensively used by cascading from one process to another, ensuring zero discharge plant. The existing water allocation of 3,30,000 m3/d is sufficient to meet the requirements of the expansion up to 18.0 MTPA stage. 3.9 Power The estimated power requirements of various plant units including utilities and auxiliary facilities for the Plant at 18.0 Mtpa works out 1412 MW. The available power from captive and from JSWEL is 1735 MW. Thus, there is adequate availability of power for the steel plant operations at 18 MTPA stage. DG sets of adequate capacities are proposed for the plant units as well as CPP auxiliaries to cater to the requirement of safe shutdown and safety of personnel during total black-out condition when power supplies to plant network from both the sources viz. grid and CPP have failed. 3-19

39 3 - Project Description (cont d) 3.10 WASTE GENERATION AND MANAGEMENT Wastewater generation & Management Currently, the integrated steel plant complex of JSW Steel, at Vijayanagar is a Zero Liquid Discharge plant, the only steel plant of this in the world. This has been achieved through the following measures - Technologies which conserve water - Recycle of > 95% treated water back into the process after treatment using specialty chemicals. - Cascaded use of water where blow down from one unit is used as make up in another unit - Reuse of treated sewage as industrial make up - Recover good quality water by installing RO Plants. Till now 7 RO plants are in operation recovering 21,000 m3 of water per day. - ZLD Plants with a combination of RO plant with evaporator for 100% recovery of water. - Use of high TDS water in quenching applications. It is estimated that about 1000 m3/h of waste water and blow down water will be generated in the proposed expansion to 18 MTPA stage. This wastewa ter will be treated in the following units: - A 300 m3/h ZLD Plant at Coke ovens to treat treated waste water from BOD Plant to achieve zero liquid discharge. - Two RO Plants to recover RO permeate, each of 500 m3/h, one near OBP and another near SMS-4. The RO rejects will be used in slag quenching and dust suppression in RMHS. It is proposed to have ZLD at 18 MTPA stage of the plant, preventing any pollution of the receiving environment Solid Waste Management The estimated generation of major solid wastes at 18 MTPA stage is tabulated below: Solid wastes Expected generatio n at 18 MTPA Management Scheme MTPA BF Slag 7.2 Granulation in Slag granulation plant of BFs and used in cement manufacturing in JSW cement plant.

40 3 - Project Description (cont d) Steelmaking Slag (*) BF slag would be air cooled and used for construction sector after processing to different sizes. 3.6 Recovery of metallics for in-plant use. Balance utilized as construction aggregate, after processing. Dusts and 1.70 Reuse in Agglomeration or steel sludge(**) making area. Fly Ash 0.50 Currently used in cement making. Will be continued. (*)Measures planned for steel slag: There are three types of steel slag generated in the steel making processes. a. Hot metal treatment slag with high Sulphur and metallics, b. Converter slag/eaf slag during steel making and c. ladle furnace slag. One of the major problem with steel slag usage till recently was mixing of all types of slag, rendering no utilization. JSWSL has initiated measures to separately dump and treat the slag for their gainful utilization. HMDS slag is treated for removal of metallics and the nonmetallic portion containing lime is used in sinter plant. The ladle furnace slag is separately treated and is proposed to be briquetted for recycling a portion in steel making as ladle additive. The balance portion is used in cement making as a raw material. JSWSL is currently installing these plants both at Dolvi and at Vijayanagar. The steel making slag from BOF contains free lime and needs to be treated for its removal. Such a process is called weathering. Traditionally natural weathering takes 2-3 years, where as accelerated weathering takes 3-4 months. JSWSL has developed a technology of steam aging in large pits wherein the process of weathering is completed in 10 days. The product meets the specification for aggregates. Further to avoid making large pits and to wait for 10 days, JSWSL is introducing a new technology called steam box type which can weather steel slag within hours within the slag bay itself. Such facilities are being installed at Vijayanagar and at Dolvi at an estimated cost of Rs 200 cr. The SMS-4 proposed in the expansion will also have this technology (**) Dust and sludge: Following technologies have been developed and implemented at Vijayanagar for recycling of dust and sludge. 3-21

41 3 - Project Description (cont d) Mill scale briquetting: A mill scale briquetting plant of 800 tpd has been set up to recycle iron bearing sludge and dust like DRI, ARP fines, mill scales etc to high strength briquettes using molasses as the binder. BOF converters. Thus the recycle skips two processing stages and has huge economic benefits. The additional volume of such dust generated in the proposed expansion processed in this facility. Micro pellet plant: A micro pellet plant of 0.6 mtpa has been set up to process dust and sludge of medium iron and lime values by converting them to micro pellets. The micro pellet in sinter plants, which otherwise could not handle such micro fines due to problem of permeability and high dust emissions. The process involves mixing all dust and sludge to bring in homogeneity and a moisture level of about 12%. The mixture is granulated in a high intensity gyratory type mixer. The micro pellets are cured and used in sintering process. This unit is being expanded to enhance the capacity to treat the dust and sludge generated in the proposed expansion to 18.0 MTPA Waste to wealth plant: A waste to wealth plant of 1500 tpd has been set up to process dust and sludge of low iron and carbon values by beneficiation. The concentrate is used in pellet plant, and the low value is sent to existing slime pond. Such dusts cannot be handled in micro pellet plant as they tend to lower the Fe values in sintering. It is proposed to install a similar unit to process the dust and sludge generated in the proposed expansion. Besides the above, there would be other solid wastes like refractory and plant debris etc. generated from the proposed steel plant. While some of these can be recycled in the process, others would be disposed off in environmentally friendly manner. The hazardous wastes like oily wastes, chrome sludge from CRM, salts from ZLD unit shall be disposed through authorized re-processors or landfilled. With these measures, it is proposed to utilize all dust and sludge for recycling Air Pollution Various process operations would generate particulate dusts, volatile organic carbons (VOCs), oxides of sulphur and nitrogen and carbon dioxide to the environment. The emission would be from the stacks as well as there would be fugitive emission of dusts from open & closed areas. 3-22

42 3 - Project Description (cont d) Fugitive dust emissions generating from the handling and stockpiling of raw material in open stockyards would be controlled by water sprinkling at regular intervals. All closed zone working areas such as raw materials handling zone, conveyor transfer points, dust generation points at screen would be provided with dust extraction (DE) systems/dry fogging (DF) at several emission points to control the fugitive dust emissions. DE system shall consist of suction hood followed by bag filter / ESP, ducts, extraction fans and stack of appropriate height. Coke oven: Emissions from coke ovens would mainly result from coal charging and coke pushing. Fugitive emissions may result from various leakages from oven doors, charging lids, ascension pipe (AP) covers etc. Charging emissions would be controlled by High Pressure Liquor Aspiration (HPLA) injection in goose neck during charging. Coking emissions would be controlled by efficient sealing of oven doors, water sealing arrangement of AP cap etc. Land based fume extraction system would be adopted for charging and pushing emission control. The hot coke would be quenched by coke dry quenching (CDQ) with recovery of sensible heat for steam generation. The raw coke oven gas (COG) would be cleaned in by-product recovery plant with recovery of tar, ammonia and sulphur to make it suitable for use as plant fuel and as reductant in the DR plant. Sinter plant: The conventional air pollution systems like DE systems of sinter stock house based on electrostatic precipitator (ESP) and waste flue gas cleaning by ESP would be considered. The particulate dust emission from the product sinter screening units would be controlled by DE systems complete with duct, fabric filters and stack of adequate height. Pellet Plant: Emissions from Pellet Plant would be from Induration Process, which are controlled by installation of Bag Filter / ESP with adequate height of chimneys. Blast furnace: In addition to cleaning of BF gas in wet gas cleaning plant (GCP), which is a process requirement, the main sources of air pollution would be stock house and cast house. The BF stock house would be provided with DE systems complete with dust extraction hoods, ESP/ Bag Filter, ID fan and stack of adequate height. Similarly, the cast house would have separate fume collection system during tapping of hot metal and slag, would be equipped with FE systems along with bag filter/esp for separation of particulates before venting through a stack of appropriate height. 3-23

43 3 - Project Description (cont d) Heat recovery from stove waste gas shall be installed for preheating of BF Gas and combustion air for stoves. Lime/dolomite Calcining Plant: The emissions arising due the fuel burning in lime calcining plant would be collected and taken through a bag filter to separate out the lime/dolo fines. The lime/dolo fines thus collected would be recycled to the sinter plant. The kilns in the calcining plant and other dust generation areas would be provided with separate DE systems, complete with bag filters and stack of adequate height to clean the particulates. BOF: Besides BOF gas cleaning, which is basically a process necessity, secondary emissions would be generated mainly from charging and tapping operations. The secondary emissions of the steelmelt shop would be controlled by providing dry ESP. Ladle Furnace: The primary emissions of LF would be collected by fume extraction (FE) devices. Dust laden fumes would be indirectly cooled and cleaned through a bag filter for separation of particulates and the clean gas would be vented into the atmosphere through a tall stack of adequate height. The secondary emissions would be controlled through canopy hood extraction, which would be integrated with the main system to clean the fugitive emissions during charging and tapping operations. The gas cleaning system would be complete with water cooled duct, fume and gas cooler, bag house, ID fan and stack of appropriate height. Caster Area: The water required for cooling the hot cast slabs and billets would generate hot fumes comprising mainly water vapour, hot waste water and suspended particulates. The slab casting area would be provided with adequate ventilation in order to have the water vapour properly dispersed. Rolling Mills: Burning of the by-product fuel gases in reheating furnace would give rise to the emissions of particulates, SO 2 and NOx. NOx emissions would be controlled by optimizing the excess air supply and proper burner design. In addition, fume extraction (FE) system would be installed. The flue gas, which is clean, would be vented through a stack of adequate height after heat recovery. Cement Grinding Unit: The cement grinding unit would comprise of raw material storage, handling and feeding facilities, mill system and finished product storage, handling and packing facilities. The main sources of air pollution would be fugitive dust emissions from the raw material & product 3-24

44 3 - Project Description (cont d) handling units, dust emission from the mill exit dust laden gas and SO 2 & NO x emission from the hot air generator. The raw material and product handling facilities would be equipped with dust extraction systems comprising of bag filters. The mill exit gas containing particulate matter will be passed through a bag filter to capture dust. Captive Power Plant: The surplus by-product fuels gases and steam coal would be burnt in the boilers for generation of power. The flue gas thus generated from the boiler would be vented through stack of appropriate height. ESPs would be provided to capture the fly ash generated by the coal fired burners. Power would also be generated from CDQ, TRT and process steam from sinter cooler. Highlights of air pollution: the following are the highlights being planned in the proposed expansion: a. Emission standards in line with EU standards b. Design limit for dust emission from bag filters -< 10 mg/nm3 c. Additional high-performance bag filters in all sinter plants, with emission limit of < 10 mg/nm3 d. High efficiency ESPs in pellet plant to limit dust to < 10 mg/nm3 e. Switching over to highly polluting sinter plants (SP-5 & 6) to pellet plant. 3-25

The site is well connected by roads, including State and National highways and to the mining area of Sandur. Rail Linkage Nearest railway station to the steel plant is Toranagallu. Broad gauge railway lines between Guntakal and Hubli are passing through this station. Airport JSW Steel has an airport adjacent to the steel works with connectivity to nearby cities of Hyderabad and Bengaluru. Sea Port The eastern port of Chennai is 460 km and western port of Goa is 430 km. Mumbai is about 740 km on the North West. Location map of the site is shown as Fig

51 4 - Site Analysis (cont d) FIG ROAD AND RAILWAY CONNECTIVITY 4.2 LAND FORM, LAND USE AND LAND OWNERSHIP The proposed site for setting up of the brownfield project is located within the jurisdiction of Toranagallu village of Sandur taluk in the district of Ballari in Karnataka. The existing integrated steel plant is situated between 15 o 10' - 15 o 12' N latitude and 76 o 38' - 76 o 40'E longitude The land is industrial land area and is currently in the ownership of JSW Steel, after the expiry of the lease by Government of Karnataka. The total land area is about 7640 acres and the proposed expansion is located over an area of about 450 acres within the overall plant area, utilizing the existing infrastructure and utilities. 4-2

52 4 - Site Analysis (cont d) 4.3 TOPOGRAPHY: The topography of the study area is gently sloping from south to north. The area is in a valley surrounded by small mountain ranges. The highest elevation of the existing steel plant and the proposed expansion site is 500m while the lowest is 430m above msl. The site is drained by Narihalla on the western side and Kaniganahalla on the eastern side. Narihalla and Kaniganahalla drain into Daroji tank which is the only noteworthy tank in Sandur taluk with a capacity of mcft (22.3million cubic meter) located about 5km north of the proposed site. Daroji tank also receives water from Tungabhadra high level canal. Important rivers of Bellary district are Tungabhadra and its tributaries namely hegari and chikka Hagari, which flow outside the study area. River Tungabhadra flows on the north side of Toranagallu at a distance about 25 km. The flow of Tungabhadra river and Narihalla nallah is regulated by respective reservoir authorities and the flow is very less during dry season. The natural nallah, Kaniganahalla is also dry during the dry seasons. 4.4 EXISTING LAND USE The present land use is industrial area housing the integrated steel plant of JSW Steel. 4.5 SOIL The top layer of the site is characterised by recent sand, murram, with rectangular pebbles of banded hematite and black cotton soil. This combination of topsoil ranges from 0 to 1.5 m, below 1.5 m the weathered schist formation is encountered upto depth of 8m. Beyond 8m the formations are found to be fractured. The basement/fresh rock occurs beyond 10 m. The general profile observed in the study area is as follows. 4-3

53 4 - Site Analysis (cont d) The above soil profiles was observed from the well and nallah cuttings which are located in the valley portion of the study area. The recent formation of murram and black cotton soil are observed to the depth of 0.5m to 1.0m. It appears that the fractured rock starts immediately and extends to the depth of 1.5m and the fresh rock strata 2 m below the ground level. From the geotechnical map it is evident that three seismic zones have been identified at Bellary district. There are three lineaments are also identified. All the lineaments are occurring at Zone II of seismic activities. The existing plant is located in seismic Zone II and without any lineament. From the map it also can be seen that the plant is located on pediplain plateau residual hill with structural hill ranges. The basement has crystalline, granite, charnockite. 4.6 HYDROLOGY The entire study area forms a part of Tungabhadra basin, downstream catchments. The study area is mainly drained by Kaniga nala and Nari nala and finally these two nala became tributaries to Daroji kere. The overflow of Daroji kere meets Tungabhadra at 25 Km towards North. Hagari and Chikka hagari are other tributaries to Tungabhadra which are not falling in the study area. There are 15 minor and 2 major tanks are in Santur taluk. Daroji is one major tank with 1790 acres of command area with maximum water holding capacity of Mcft located at 5 km in the north. Another one is man made exclusively meant for plant feed water located at south of the plant. High level lined Tungabhadra 4-4

54 4 - Site Analysis (cont d) irrigation canal is passing at about 8 km north of the plant site. The let out water from Tungabhadra dam to Andhra Pradesh flows in this canal for 8 to 9 months in a year with an average height of water column ranging from 2 to 3 meter. This water head influences the groundwater in the down gradient and near the canal to some extent till the groundwater head gets matched with running water head. Nevertheless, this canal water is not used for any industrial purpose and it is unaffected by proposed activities. Hence further detailed study about the canal is not detailed in this report. 4.7 CLIMATIC CONDITIONS The climate of the area is interior arid zone and the total rainfall ranges from 331 to mm. (Year 1998 to 2005). More than 80% of the rainfall received during the months of July to September from South West monsoon and the balance is equated in North East monsoon. The study region is characterized by hot and dry summer with temperature raising above 47 0 C during the month of May. 4-5

55 5 - PLANNING BRIEF 5.1 PLANNING CONCEPT The proposed brown field expansion project would be sited near Toranagallu, Sandur taluk, Ballari district. The total land area of the proposed project would be about 450 acres within the overall land area available with JSW Steel. 5.2 POPULATION The JSW Steel limited comes under the Sandur taluk an iron ore mining area, has a population of 2,22,782 with nearly 80% residing in the rural area as per 2011 Census. Due to relatively less rainfall and irrigation facilities there has been a shift of employment from agriculture to industrial. This has also been triggered by the setting up of the large steel plant in the taluk, besides Sandur being the iron ore area for mining activities. This trend is continuing with new opportunities of employment and business due to the setting up of the steel plant. The proposed project will keep this momentum going. The proposed project as per applicable regulations would employ local workers. However due to foreseen employment opportunities in the proposed project and increase in ancillary economic activities, growth in migrant population is anticipated during construction stages. 5.3 LAND USE PLANNING The total area for steel plant would be about acres, consisting of tentatively the following: Built up facilities in terms of buildings, shops, yards etc : Roads & railway corridors Drainage channels Water bodies Green Cover Others: The total greenbelt, of about 2208 acres constitute nearly 30% of the overall plant area. Further an area of 228 acres is being covered with water bodies. Further it is intended to carry out plantation on another 500 acres of land adjoining the steel plant belonging to the forest and defense departments. 5-1

56 5 - Planning Brief (cont d) The layout would also house canteen, administrative buildings, workshops, laboratories, railway tracks, stores, in-plant roads, etc. 5.4 ASSESSMENT OF INFRASTRUCTURE DEMAND The following infrastructure development in the area is being carried out to support the growth of the steel plant and for its sustainable operation. A network of seven Pipe conveyors of 86 Km from the mine iron areas to the steel plant site is under construction at an estimate of Rs 1200 cr by JSW Steel to reduce the number of trucks operating for transporting iron ore. This is being carried out to reduce the fugitive emissions and as a compliance to one of the condition of the earlier EC. Setting up of a raw water pond over 600 acres area for storing water to meet the requirements of the steel plants during the dry months for stable operations. 4- lane National highway is under construction by NHAI connecting Hospet to Gooty. This will lessen the fugitive emission during road movement and assist in dispatch of steel products by Road. A Daroji railway link for providing another outlet connection for the Ballari side (to the east side of the plant) to move the raw material and steel products. Provision of safe potable water facilities in surrounding villages is being implemented by JSW Steel along with other Government agencies. seasons Provision of safe piped potable water facilities to Sandur is being executed by Government agencies. A by pass along the road along Vaddu is planned to facilitate smooth movement of traffic to avoid my railway cross overs currently existing in the JSW land Under the Karnataka Mining Environment Restoration Corporation a SPV appointed by the Honorable Supreme court, several infrastructure development works is being taken up in Sandur taluk, at an estimated cost of over Rs 10,000 Cr in the next few years.
