The fuel requirement will be about 240 lit/hr of HSD (as and when used) STORM WATER MANAGEMENT: Construction phase Contaminant Sources Impact Mitigation Sediment & Streets, lawns, driveways, During construction, sediment fencing or other erosion Floatables roads, construction control devices will be used to mitigate the short-term

20 Oil & Grease activities, Roads, driveways, parking lots etc. adverse impacts of sedimentation. Oil & Grease trap will be provided to remove oil & grease, suspended matter, and ensure the quality of water. Storm water control and rain water harvesting will be done as per the standards laid down by CGWA & BIS. Following measure will be adopted for the same: Construction Sequencing: Construction sequencing (involves disturbing only part of a site at a time to prevent erosion from dormant parts) has been done at site. Grading activities and construction are completed and soils are effectively stabilized on one part of the site before grading and construction commence at another part. Compost Blankets: A compost blanket is a layer of loosely applied composted material placed on the soil in disturbed areas to reduce storm water runoff and erosion. This material fills in small rills and voids to limit channelized flow, provides a more permeable surface to facilitate storm water infiltration, and promotes re-vegetation. Post Construction Phase: a. Design: For good design of rainwater harvesting, following points are to be kept under consideration: Ideal location with good ground slope. The location has adequate subsurface permeability of the aquifer to accommodate maximum recharge of rainwater through injection well. Rate of filtration should exceed average rainfall intensity. Clogging of filtration media should be cleaned periodically. Ground water pollution does not take place. b. Baseline: The average annual rainfall (based on last 5 years rainfall data) at Ahmedabad station is 623 mm.

29 PLANNING BRIEF 5.1 Planning Concept This is a planned airport development project to cater aviation demand as per Master Plan. The construction of new ATC building cum Technical block is proposed. Other facilities such as power, transportation and communication, social infrastructure facilities are already available at project site as the proposed project lies within S.V.P.I. Airport, Ahmedabad. 5.2 Population Projection The general public at S.V.P.I airport, Ahmedabad will not be having any impact as this building is to be used by only staff of existing ATC office. 5.3 Land use planning Land use has been categorized based on the following functional groups: Airfield Dependent: Land uses with the highest location and area priority include those that are fully within the airfield, or overlapping the airside-landside boundary. Airport Supporting: Land uses with functional priority include those that are required for the airport to function. Their location may be on the airside or landside but preferably within the airport boundary. Commercial: Land uses that are fully provide non-aviation revenues. These uses have flexibility of location but should not interfere with the functional operation of Airfield Dependent or Airport Supporting Land Uses. Infrastructure & Open Space: These land use areas are determined by the needs of all the land uses above. Since supporting infrastructure must be within the development areas the first three groups determine the area required for this group. Open space includes those areas remaining which cannot be developed. 5.4 Assessment of Infrastructure Demand (Physical & Social) Social Demand On the basis of the preliminary site visit, the infrastructure demand in the nearby area is assessed on the basis of need and priority: The assessment will be identified in the socio economic survey, after the grant of TOR and will be submitted at the time of final presentation regarding Environmental Clearance. 24

30 Physical infrastructure Physical infrastructure is an important aspect of the site. It determines the quality of life to a large extent. Physical infrastructure deals with: Water supply Electricity Waste management & treatment Water supply The daily consumption of water for new ATC tower cum Technical Block during operation phase for domestic use will be about 12 KLD out of which 7 KLD will be fresh water and 5 KLD will be recycled/treated water. The water requirement for Landscaping, HVAC & DG cooling will be about 32 KLD (treated water). The water will be met through AMC water supply. Electricity The total proposed load for ATC tower cum Technical Block at S.V.P.I. Airport, Ahmedabad is 1000 KW. The power supply shall be drawn from existing 132 kv GSS of Torrent Power. There will be power backup through DG sets of capacity of 750 kva (2 nos.) used in case of power cut or failure. DG set will be provided with an effective safe stack height for proper dispersion of pollutants that will keep the emissions within the permissible limit. The fuel requirement will be about 240 lit/hr of HSD (as and when used). Solid Waste management: Solid waste generated from the airport mainly comprises of food waste and garbage waste. Further, small quantities of sludge from STP and other waste are being generated. Collection and handling of domestic solid waste is being done in line with the provisions of the Solid Waste Management Rules Waste water treatment & management: During operation phase, wastewater generated from ATC Tower cum Technical Block will be treated in Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) comprising primary, secondary and tertiary treatment facilities. ********* 25
