(Copy enclosed as Annexure II) b. SCREENING CATEGORY As per EIA Notification dated 14 th September, 2006 as amended from time to time, the project falls under Category A, Project or Activity 1(a) 3 and 2 (b)-3. c. STATUS OF MINING PLAN Mining Plan along with Progressive Mine Closure Plan has been approved by IBM vide their letter No Balodabazar/Choop/MP-1167/2018-Raipur/1121 dated 11.10.2018. (iii) NEED FOR THE PROJECT & ITS IMPORTANCE TO THE COUNTRY/ REGION UltraTech Cement Ltd. (Unit: Rawan Cement Works) has an existing Integrated Cement Plant with Clinker (6.5 MTPA), Cement (3.3 MTPA), WHRS (16 MW) & CPP (80 MW) located at Village: Rawan, Tehsil: Simga, District: Balodabazar-Bhatapara (Chhattisgarh); the plant was commissioned in the year 1995. Environmental Clearance for the existing Integrated Cement Plant has been obtained from MoEFCC, New Delhi vide letter no. J-11011/262/2009-IA (II) dated 17 th March, 2011. Now, M/s. UltraTech Cement Ltd. (Unit: Rawan Cement Works) had proposed an expansion in existing Integrated Cement Plant with Clinker (6.5 to 10.0 million TPA), Cement (3.3 to 7.0 million TPA), WHRS (16 to 36 MW) & CPP (80 MW). In order to meet the limestone requirement of the integrated cement plant, UTCL is proposing Guma II Limestone block (Area 249.030 ha) with Limestone Production Capacity 3.5 Million TPA, Top Soil 0.038 Million TPA, Over burden 0.690 million TPA, Sub grade 0.320 million TPA and Mineral reject 0.560 million TPA with installation of crusher with wobbler 1500 TPH and Installation of new conveyor (length 4.05 km) from crusher to the plant at Villages: Guma, Sarseni, Khapradih, Tehsil: Palari & Simga, District- BalodaBazar-Bhatapara (Chhattisgarh). It is propsoed that 97% of limestone raised from Guma II will be used at Rawan Cement Works and rest 3% limestone will be used at Hirmi Cement Works. With respect to the importance of the project to the nation, it can be well said that in a developing nation like India, cement is essential for infrastructural development. Thus, keeping in mind this requirement, mining of limestone is essential for the nation s growth.

Top soil and OB removal The mine working will involve removal of topsoil. Top soil will be stacked separately and will be simultaneously used in plantation. II. Drilling Drilling will be carried out with the help of crawler mounted DTH/Top hammer drills. III. Blasting Various types of explosives such as ANFO, slurry, SME etc. will be used for blasting. NONEL detonating fuse will be used since multi row system of firingwill be carried to reduce the ground vibration, noise, fly rock etc. due to blasting. IV. Loading Blasted limestone will be loaded by large size hydraulic excavators into the dumpers for onward dispatch to the crusher (for limestone) and waste dump (for waste and soil). V. Crushing Crushing plant proposed is a single rotary impact type with wobbler having capacity of 1500 TPH. Before crushing there will be a system to segregate R.O.M in (+) 50 mm and (-) 50 mm through wobbler. Only (+) 50 mm material will be fed to crusher and (-) 50 mm material after screening shall be brought to the product site through separate conveyors discharging the crushed product to desired size finally to the crusher line conveyor.

(vi) SOIL CLASSIFICATION The soil within the applied area is predominantly clayey in nature. (vii) CLIMATIC DATA FROM SECONDARY SOURCES The area has generally moderate climate. The temperature variation is from 40 o C to 47 o C in Month of May & June and 8 o C to 12 o C in month of December & January. The average annual rainfall in the area is about 1200mm. (viii) SOCIAL INFRASTRUCTURE AVAILABLE The site is well connected with social infrastructure facilities like medical, post office, schools, police stations etc. and as such no constraints are envisaged in this aspect. Tehsil and district headquarter are near to the site. 5.0 PLANNING BRIEF (i) PLANNING CONCEPT (TYPE OF INDUSTRIES, FACILITIES, AND TRANSPORTATION ETC.) TOWN AND COUNTRY PLANNING/DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY CLASSIFICATION. M/s. UltraTech Cement Limited (Unit: Rawan Cement Works) is proposing Guma II Limestone block. Mining Lease area falls in Govt & Private land. The Limestone mined out from this Limestone block will be used for captive use in the existing Cement Plant of the company. Transportation of limestone from mine up to crusher by dumpers and the crushed limestone will be transported to Rawan cement plant through Road/covered belt conveyors and to Hirmi cement plant via road. (ii) POPULATION PROJECTION Temporary influx of people will be there as the managerial and supervisory staff will generally be outsider. A projection may be made by a governmental organization, or by those unaffiliated with a government. (iii) LAND USE PLANNING Total Mining Lease area is 249.030ha, out of which, private agriculture land is 215.874 ha and Govt Barren land is 33.156 Ha (includes grass land).topography of the ML area is flat. At the conceptual stage, Out of total 201 ha excavated area, 78.30 ha area will be backfilled & remaining 122.7 ha area will be converted into water reservoir. Greenbelt will be developed along the 7.5 m wide lease periphery on 5.40 ha and plantation will be done on 98.63 ha (78.30 ha area on Backfilled and 20.33 ha area on waste dump).22.30 Ha area will be undisturbed at the end of life of mine due to blasting safety zone 300 m from habitant.

(v) AMENITIES/FACILITIES UltraTech Cement Limited (UTCL) will develop the Amenities/Facilities in the nearby area of the proposed project site as per requirement of local people the nearby area of under corporate social responsibilities programs. 6.0 PROPOSED INFRASTRUCTURE (i) INDUSTRIAL AREA (PROCESSING AREA) Proposed limestone mining lease area is249.030ha and required infrastructure for limestone mining activities will be provided. (ii) RESIDENTIAL AREA (NON PROCESSING AREA) This is not required as mine workers will come from nearby villages. Further, a welldeveloped colony already exists within the plant complex at Village Rawan, Tehsil Simga, District- Balodabazar-Bhatapara (Chhattisgarh). (iii) GREEN BELT /PLANTATION The total mining lease area is 249.030 ha. Greenbelt will be developed along the 7.5 m wide lease periphery on 5.40 ha and plantation will be done on 98.63 ha (78.30 ha area on Backfilled and 20.33 ha area on waste dump). Local and fruit bearng species will be planted after consultation with local forest officer and as per CPCB guidelines. Density of plantation would be 2500 trees / ha. (iv) SOCIAL INFRASTRUCTURE Proposed Limestone Mining project will result in growth of the surrounding areas by increased direct and indirect employment including ancillary development and supporting infrastructure. (v) CONNECTIVITY Nearest Highway is SH -10(~9.5 Km in NNE Direction). Nearest Town/ City is BalodaBazar (~ 12 Km in NE Direction). The nearest railway station is Bhatapara (~ 17.5 km in NW direction) The nearest airport is Swami Vivekananda Airport, Raipur (~55 km in SW direction). The site is well connected with communication facilities like telephone, fax and as such, no constraints are envisaged in this aspect as the Tehsil and District headquarters are near to the site.
