14 Sri.M.RamaKrishna Gravel & Building Stone B2 Category Mine 1.00 Hect EMP Environmental Management Plan 9.0 Anticipated impacts & Mitigation Measures due to proposed project The environment management plan is prepared with a view to facilities effective environmental management of the project in general and implementation of the mitigation measures in particular The EMP provides a delivery mechanism to address potential adverse impacts and to introduce standards of good practice to be adopted for all project works. The anticipated impacts due to mining and allied activates are air, noise land, water and socio economic along with the mitigations to the extent possible are described in the following paragraphs. 9.1 Sources of Pollution and Control measures The major sources for pollution are air and noise due to proposed mine from loading operation and transportation of material to the places. However, as the quarrying area is very limited hence dust generated is very little though the applicant is taking all the precautionary steps for protecting the air pollution by greater extent of water sprinkling system out the mine lease area Air Pollution and its Mitigation Anticipated Sources of Air Pollution Digging & Excavation (Dust, Non fugitive) Loading & unloading and Transportation by vehicles (fugitive and line sources) Air Quality Management Road Regular repair (every 6 months) and Grading Regular water sprinkling on haulage roads during dry conditions Trucks - Avoid overloading of trucks and Unnecessary idling of vehicles. Movement Trucks to be covered with tarpaulin / plastic Enforcing for dust limit (<25 kmph) Plantations Green belt development and avenue plantation Precautionary measures by providing the protective nose mask for dust Noise Pollution and its mitigation Sources of Noise The Gravel and Building Stone rock breaking, haulage may be generating noise, however, the probable noise level will be within permissible limits. The noise produced due to the machinery operations and transport vehicles. However, all the vehicles are regularly repaired and checking the maintenance. 14

15 Sri.M.RamaKrishna Gravel & Building Stone B2 Category Mine 1.00 Hect EMP 1. Loaded trucks movement generates db (A) (2-3 trucks short time stay at mine area) 2. Digging and excavation activities -70 db(a) (Only during day time) 3. (if required Blasting operation only for few minutes) 4. Normal values when mining is not in operation (40-45dB(A)) Control Measures Water Quality The protective noise reducing gear like earmuffs, the company will provide earplugs. All the machines are used acoustic enclosures to avoid the noise. Mining operations will be carried out during day time only and avoid inconvenience to the nearby habitations. The noise propagation values found to be less than the prescribed noise limits Ear plugs will be provided to the noise prone areas Vehicular maintenance will ensure less noise. The mine lease applied area is elevated hillock type deposition. It usable Gravel and Building Stone quarry operations extent below ground level maximum. There is a possibility of accumulation of rain water in the mine pits during monsoon. The mining operations during monsoon. Whatever were accumulated in the mine during monsoon will be seeps the below ground level. Therefore, there is no ground water contamination Occupational Safety and Health Safety precautions as per Metalliferrous mines regulations and mine rules and Act shall be taken. Minimum distance of 7.5 m will be left all along the mine lease boundary. The mined out area will be kept out of bounds for public by providing fencing. Occupational Safety and Health to Control Exposure to Noise o Reducing the exposure time of workers to the higher noise levels o Smooth blasting techniques, special explosive and silent non explosive demolishing agent will be used House keeping Proper housekeeping and cleanliness will be maintained in the infrastructure facilities. Wet mopping will be adopted to conserve water. Sign boards will be provided in the work areas and the road and building highlighting the safety and occupational aspects. 15

16 Sri.M.RamaKrishna Gravel & Building Stone B2 Category Mine 1.00 Hect EMP 11.0 Transport Systems The finished product is transported by road using trucks. The applicant will deploy proclaims and tippers to transport the Gravel and Building Stone mineral, unfinished (waste) material to the destination area. The materials while transporting do not pose any hazard Sufficient parking facilities will be provided for vehicles loading and unloading of material. Safety sign will be displayed inside and outside the mine to avoid road accidents Afforestation Programme and Flora Fauna Flora and Fauna Due to water stress conditions and edaphic factor the biomass cover is less. Tree coverage is less and mostly herbs and shrubs are dominating. The vegetation is very scarce. No plant species is found that is ecologically Important (Rare, endangered threatened etc.) restricted to the area. The loss of biomass cab be compensated by providing ideal conditions (proper supervision, water, fertilizer etc.) for the proposed green belt. Other than domestic animals no ecologically important animals are reported in this area 13.1 Proposed afforestation The Soil scraped from the surface will be stored temporarily along the edges of the mine till the complete extraction. This ensures proper preservation and utilization of the soil Proposal for reclamation of land affected by mining The proposed mining will result in reducing the height of the area and exposing the parent rock. To the ground level, the applicant can reutilize for agriculture purpose after completion of the Quarrying Environmental Greening Program Environmental greening program is an important component of the Environment Management Plan and is an imperative requirement for any major industrial activity, as per the guidelines issued by the ministry of Environment and forests, Govt. of Indian Conceptualization, design and implementation of the proposed activity and the site conditions area presented. Each year some of the part of the barrier zone will be subjected to afforestation and care will be taken to protect the saplings. Fruit growing trees are proposed to be planted Plantation programme The Quarry lease applied area is not suitable for plantation as entire is hillock area. There are absolutely chances of any tree can growing in the quarry area. However it is proposed to plant a few trees in the same place or nearby village. The details of proposed plantation. Viz, Neem, Eucalyptus etc which is envisaged of good survival rate. 16

17 Sri.M.RamaKrishna Gravel & Building Stone B2 Category Mine 1.00 Hect EMP 13.0 Socio economic Environment For the functioning of the mine approx. 12 manpower will be utilized and it will not have any significant impact on economy of the local people It will have indirect benefit to the people of Andhra Pradesh in the form of collection of tax. Land allocated for road will be laid with avenue plantation along with lights which will be useful for the local people No impact due to influx of population / labour because the mine is very small 14.0 Disaster Planning The mining operation shall be carried out under the management control and direction of a qualified mines manager holding a second class managers certificate of competency to manage a metalliferous mine granted by director general of mines safety (DGMS).DGMS have been issuing a number of standing orders and circulars to be followed by the mine management in case of disaster, if any. Moreover mining staff would be sent to refresher courses from time to keep them abreast of the regulations. However following natural / industrial hazards may occur during normal operation. Slope failure at the faces Accident due to explosives Accident due to heavy equipment / machinery Sabotage in case of magazine Accident due to try rocks and boulder In order to take care of above hazards / disasters, the following control shall be adopted. All safety precautions and provisions of Metalliferous Mine regulation 1961 are strictly followed during all mining operations Checking and regular maintenance of garland drains and earthen bunds to avoid any inflow of surface water into mining area Entry of Unauthorized persons shall be prohibited Fire fighting and first aid provisions in the mines office and mining area. Provision of all the safety appliances such as safety boots, helmets, goggles etc. Would be made available to the employees and regular check to ensure the use Training and refreshed courses for all employees working in the hazards premises Working of mine as per approved plan, related amendments and other regulatory Provisions Cleaning of mine faces shall be done regularly. Provision of magazine at safe place with fencing and necessary security arrangement Suppression of dust on the haulage roads by providing water sprinkling. 17
