The unit has also proposed to design & implement rain water harvesting scheme within premises. The parameter considered for designing the Rain water harvesting is as follows: The average rainfall of the area considered for the design is 800 mm/year. The paved area available in front. The amount of water collected from the run off. The roof top area available. The amount of water collected from the roof top. Considering one hour of peak rainfall. Total rain water to be collected. Hence rain water harvesting pit will be made to collect the rain water from roof top and paved area based on the above data consideration. The project area details are as under: S. No. Particulars Area (sq. m ) 1 Total Plot Area 6939 2 Roof top area 2240 3 Paved /road area 800 4 Open land 3899 The Source of water for the project is GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar and water consumption will be 113 KLPD i.e. 33900 m 3 /annum. The assignment was given to work out the scope of geology, Hydrogeological & artificial recharge through detailed survey. 97

Plot. No. 141/2/B, G.I.D.C. Industrial Estate, Ankleshwar-393002, Gujarat. Scope of Rainwater Harvesting from Rooftops, Road/paved area, green belt, open area etc. was studied depending upon average annual rainfall & its intensity and designs were made accordingly. DESIGN OF RAINWATER HARVESTING: For good design of rainwater harvesting, following points are to be kept under consideration: (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) 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. ROOFTOP RAIN WATER HARVESTING: ROOFTOP RAIN WATER HARVESTING: Total rooftop area of project is 2240 m 2 that may be connected through pipes and drains to Rainwater harvesting structures which has storage chamber and the percolation pits as per sites having rooms for recharge in resonance with average rainfall, catchment area and peak rainfall intensity. Looking in to the average rainfall in this region, roof top area of the building, rain water harvesting structures are designed in such a way that even at peak rainfall intensity of 40 mm/day, water does not spill over & the entire rainwater falling over the total area goes in to the ground water body. Following dimensional parameters are considered for design of Rainwater harvesting system in the project premises. Total Rooftop area = 2240 m 2 Average rainfall Catchment factor for Roof top =625 mm = 0.625 m = 0.85 (as per C.G.W.A) Total volume of water to be captured = 2240 x 0.625 x 0.85 = 1190 m 3 98

Plot. No. 141/2/B, G.I.D.C. Industrial Estate, Ankleshwar-393002, Gujarat. The dimension of the structures to be designed for 40 mm/hour peak rainfall intensity. Considering 15 minutes of peak rainfall, runoff volume in a single storm should be: (2240 m 2 x 0.85 x 0.04 m)/4 = 19.04 m 3 ROAD/PAVED AREA STORM WATER RUNOFF HARVESTING: In road storm water harvesting system, drains may be made along the roads with iron net filter of 2 mm opening at every 20 m. Rainwater falling on the road/paved area is carried through these drains to rainwater harvesting structure and allow to in filtered in groundwater regime. This will improve groundwater quality as well as quantity in and around the project premises. Following dimensional parameters are considered for design of road storm water harvesting system in the project premises. Total Road/paved area = 800 m 2 Average rainfall = 625 mm = 0.625 m Catchment factor for Road/paved area = 0.75 (as per C.G.W.B.) Total volume of water to be captured = 800 x 0.625 x 0.75 = 375 m 3 /annum The dimension of the structures to be designed for 40 mm/hour peak rainfall intensity. Considering 15 minutes of peak rainfall, runoff volume in a single storm should be: 800 m 2 x 0.75 x 0.04 m/4 = 6 m 3 OPEN AREA RAINWATER HARVESTING: The total open area of project is 3899 m 2 which may be connected through drains to rainwater harvesting structures which has storage chamber and the percolation pits as per sites having rooms for recharge in resonance with average rainfall, catchment area and peak rainfall intensity. Following dimensional parameters are considered for design of open area rainwater harvesting system in the project premises. Total open area = 3899 m 2 Average rainfall = 625 mm = 0.625 m Catchment factor for open area = 0.15 (as per C.G.W.A) Total volume of water to be captured = 3899 x 0.625 x 0.15 = 365.53 m 3 99

Plot. No. 141/2/B, G.I.D.C. Industrial Estate, Ankleshwar-393002, Gujarat. The dimension of the structures to be designed for 40 mm/hour peak rainfall intensity. Considering 15 minutes of peak rainfall, runoff volume in a single storm should be: 3899 m 2 x 0.15 x 0.04 m/4 = 5.848 m 3 DESIGN OF RAINWATER HARVESTING STRUCTURE: The total volume of water generated in project premises from rooftop, road/paved & open area in a single storm on 40 mm peak rainfall intensity would be = 19.04 m 3 + 6.0 m 3 + 5.848 m 3 = 30.888 m 3 It is revealed from recharge test that the aquifer would slow accept water to the order of 113 m 3 /day @ 4.70 m 3 /hour continuously in long term through vadose zone. Considering the space availability, Now, we will proposed percolation tank with 15 KLD capacity and such 1 structures will accommodate up to total rainfall volume of 30.888 m3 in any rainfall event at peak rainfall occurrence. The individual design is made for accumulation of 15 m3 of water i.e. 10 m3 of water in collection tank (2 m height x 2.25 m length x 2.25 m width and about 5 m3 in the process of infiltration through filtration media of recharge well. Hence, the dimensional parameters of collection chamber would be 2 m (length) x 2 m (width) x 1.25 (depth). The filtration tank dimension would be 2 m (length) x 2 m (width) x 1.25 m (depth) with 0.15 m dia recharge well (1 nos.) of 4.5 m depth depending upon the formation for recharge in aquifer through vadose zone. TOTAL RECHARGE POTENTIAL: On completion of Rainwater Harvesting & other recharge factors, additional recharge potential in the premises would be as under: 1. Rooftop Rainwater harvesting in the 2246*0.85*0.625 = 1190 premises 2. Road storm water harvesting in the 800*0.625*0.75 = 375 premises 3. Recharge due to open area in the 3899*0.625*0.15 =365.53 100

Plot. No. 141/2/B, G.I.D.C. Industrial Estate, Ankleshwar-393002, Gujarat. premises 4. Recharge due to return flow of water 1*365*.05 = 16.25 used in plantation Total 1946.78 (Note - formula =area * run-off coefficients* rain fall {mm/1000}) The recharge potential to be created by artificial measures will be 1946.78m 3 /annum which would help in maintaining groundwater regime in terms of quantity & quality. RECOMMENDATIONS: The total volume of water generated in project premises from rooftop, road/paved & open area in a single storm on 40 mm peak rainfall intensity would be 10.95 m 3. It is revealed from recharge test that the aquifer would slow accept water to the order of 113 m 3 /day @ 4.70 m 3 /hour continuously in long term through vadose zone. Considering the space availability, Now, we will proposed percolation tank with 15 KLD capacity and such 1 structures will accommodate up to total rainfall volume of 10.95 m3 in any rainfall event at peak rainfall occurrence. The individual design is made for accumulation of 15 m3 of water i.e. 10 m3 of water in collection tank (2 m height x 2.25 m length x 2.25 m width and about 5 m3 in the process of infiltration through filtration media of recharge well. Hence, the dimensional parameters of collection chamber would be 2 m (length) x 2 m (width) x 1.25 (depth). The filtration tank dimension would be 2 m (length) x 2 m (width) x 1.25 m (depth) with 0.15 m dia recharge well (1 nos.) of 4.5 m depth depending upon the formation for recharge in aquifer through vadose zone. One piezometers are proposed to be installed in the plant premises as per CGWB norms for monitoring of season-wise water levels & water quality for ascertaining the impact of ground water extraction & artificial recharge measures on ground water regime. As per design, a borehole of 6 diameter 101

Plot. No. 141/2/B, G.I.D.C. Industrial Estate, Ankleshwar-393002, Gujarat. should be drilled up to 10 m depth by powerful DTH machine having air compressor of at least 300 psi and 1100 cfm. Thereafter, development of tube-well should be carried out by at least 300 psi & 1100 cfm air compressor for minimum of 4 hrs or till nearly sand free water is obtained. The pipe of the bore well should be left 0.5 m above the ground level & concrete structure may be made around this pipe in 14 inch thickness to prevent the bore well from surface pollutants. Around the bore well, 14 dia chamber may be made with well cap having lock & key arrangement. There should be provision of 2 dia PVC air line in the bore well for inserting probe of automatic water level recorder for complete precision in measurement of the water level data. PRECAUTIONS While carrying out roof top rain water harvesting & surface runoff utilization works following precautions must be taken so that maximum benefits are derived. The roof tops of the buildings to be used for collection rainwater must be cleaned before the onset of first rainfall so that any dust, leaves, pollutants do not enter the filtration tank. Grating must be used to trap debris or tree leaves before rain water enters the drainpipes. A steel wire mesh may be enveloped around the slotted pipe of injection well to minimize the clogging of slots. The filter material must be washed with water before putting in the filtration tanks as these may be covered with silt or clay. Every year, before the onset of first monsoon, the filter material must be taken out and washed and then put back in the filtration tank & others recharge structures sot that silt/ clay deposited during the filtration process of preceding year is removed and original filtration rate is achieved. 102

The landmass here is drained by mature and old age rivers that meander their course accompanied by frequent lateral shifts. Narmada River follows an almost straight segment of its course from north to west in the map area. Amravati nadi and kondhki khadi flow from S-E to NW and Amlakhadi in the south directly join the Narmada estuary on their southerly and westerly flows, respectively. These are tidal streams, affected regularly by the tidal surges and ebbs of sea. The dissected river terrace and alluvial plain shows an average elevation of 9-32 m. and slope gently towards the NW and sea direction. The region provides a combination of most of the geo-environmental features for the development of favorable ecosystems. The alluvial sediments and reasonable water resources have provided impetus towards developing human induced ecosystems of agricultural cropping agro forestry and horticulture. The elevation range of the region is about 15-76 m showing a very gentle flat gradient of 1:800 to 1:1000. The region shows more or less a flat topography with a series of sections cut by deeply incised channels of rivers flowing across the region. The riverbanks are generally marked by levee deposits, creating a ridge type banks with higher elevations than the general ground level. The flat topography is dotted by low height sandy mounds of stabilized dunes. Formation of ravine landscape is 135

Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar quite common on most of the riverbanks due to deep gully erosion. The rivers are prone to heavy floods and land erosion. Drainage: The drainage pattern has been captured from the satellite images and updated with the help of various secondary data sources available. The area is well drained by River Narmada, flowing in north west direction of the study area (almost 8 km ).The Narmada River rises from a spring at an elevation of 1057 m above MSL on the summit of Amarkantak Hill in the Maikal hill range in Bilaspur district of Chhattisgarh. Narmada River is the longest westerly flowing river in India with total length of about 1312 km from its source to its outfall into the Gulf of Cambay in the Bharuch district of Gujarat and with the catchment area of 98,796. The river meanders among the Mandala hills, Vindhya and Satpura ranges before pursuing a direct westerly course to meet Gulf of Khambath near Luvara. The major tributaries of Narmada in the lower reaches are Kaveri River and Bukhi River joining at Shuklathirth and Mahegam, respectively. The other prominent tributaries in the upstream are Orsang and Karjan. The flooding in the river is a recurring feature during months of July - August. Core Zone:- The project area has well built. The open area is covered by alluvium, which is used for grassing. The project site lies latitude 21 37 4.52 N and 73 02 25.8 E. The average ground elevation of the study area is 31 from mean sea level. There are no major nalah and river. 136

Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar Narmada rift in Gujarat forms a separate within the Gambay graben Initial line of weakness along Narmada existed since Pre- Gondwana period and during Deccan Trap eruptions fracturing was intensified which continued till Post-Deccan Trap period. Due to this fracturing +ve and -ve zone a were created in which sedimentation took place pari-passu with tectonic movements till late Plaistocene. Older alluvium was deposited by Narmada and its tributaries during Quaternary and Holocene periods. Since then both endoganic processes, like tectonic movements, and exogenic prosses like aggradation and degradation have been operating and causing the evolution of landscape. Majority of the geomorphic forms found in the area are manirestations of endogenic and exogenic processes. LOCAL GEOLOGY:- I In the project side, no out crops are seen.

For studying the soil profile of the region, 8 locations were selected to assess the existing soil conditions around the Project site representing various land use conditions. The concentrations of physical and chemical parameters were determined. The sampling locations have been finalized with the following objectives: a. To determine the impact of industrialization on soil characteristics. b. To determine the baseline soil characteristics of the study area Quality of the soil in the area is showing a marked diversity in nature depending upon the parent rock and climatic conditions prevailing in different parts of the district. Soil sampling locations are presented in Figure 3.15.The analysis results of the soil samples collected are given in Table 3.12. CHARACTERISTICS OF SOILS BASE LINE DATA The soil samples were collected from different places in the study area. The soil samples are taken from eight villages. At each sampling site, the samples were collected at random at a depth of 15 cms and mixed together to form a composite sample. Large stones, gravels and plant roots were removed from soil. The soil was then crushed and water suspension was prepared. The supernatant liquid was then subjected to Physico-Chemical analysis. Standard Procedures were followed for analysis. The results of soil analysis are tabulated in Table No. 3. 13 154

Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar 3.12 LAND USE PATTERN Remote Sensing is a process of identification and demarcation of various earths objects from a distance without directly coming into contact with them. Remote sensing is largely concerned with the measurement of electromagnetic radiation from the sun, which is reflected, scattered, and emitted by the objects on the surface of the earth. Different objects on the surface of the earth reflect different amounts of the electromagnetic spectrum. The potential of remote sensing in natural resources mapping basically depends on spatial, radiometric and temporal resolution of the sensor. Thus the satellite remote sensing with its capability of repetitive coverage, multispectral imaging, synoptic view and low cost can play an important role in the delineation of various landuse landcover classes. Land cover is a fundamental parameter describing the Earth s surface. This parameter is a considerable variable that impacts on and links many parts of the human and physical environments. Remote sensing technique has ability to represent of land cover categories by means of classification process. With the availability of multispectral remotely sensed data in digital form and the developments in digital processing, remote sensing supplies a new prospective for landuse/landcover analysis. Geographical Information Systems have already been used for assessing environmental problems, since they provides a flexible environment and a powerful tool for the manipulation and analysis of spatial information for land cover feature identification and the maps of all variables were combined to extract information to better understand analyzing. Satellite remote sensing, in conjunction with geographic information systems, has been widely applied and been recognized as a powerful and effective tool in analyzing land cover/use categories This study made use of remotely sensed data and GIS technologies; to evaluate qualitatively and quantitatively outcome of part of land cover/use distribution. Obtained results were compared, visualized and analyzed, in Geographic Information System. 158

The water below the water table is known as ground water and water above the water table is known as soil moisture. The water table map and water quality map of study area is attached as a Figure No. 3.8 & 3.9 Hydrologically the areas have soft rock aquifers with dug wells at the depth of 10 to 25 m, and tube wells at the depth of 50 to 100 m. The level of ground water productivity of this type of rocks are mapped by violet colour, the difference in the discharge is shown through the difference in the intensity of the colour (light colour discharge ipm) 200 to 300 in dug wells and 400 to 60 ipm in the tube well, and dark shade shows the discharge to 200 to 300 ipm in dug wells and 600 to 1200 ipm in tube wells. The hard rock aquifers dug well are found at the depth of 10 to 25 m and bore well at the depth of 100 to 200 m. The areas with extensive hard rock aquifers where pores space of rocks have secondary permeability are called fractured permeability. The intensity can be measured through the darkness in the colour, that is green which is used to map the hard rock aquifers, the discharge varies from 60 to 150 ipm in dug wells areas, 100 to 300 ipm in bore wells. 161

It covers flora & fauna in the region, details of forests and wildlife sanctuaries in the region, with list of endangered species. These components are addressed in details in the following sections: Flora and fauna are important components of the environment. They are organized into natural communities with natural dependencies among their members and show various responses and sensitivities to anthropogenic activities. Flora and fauna describes information on various species of trees, plants, shrubs, crops and natural vegetation, animal, birds etc. and endangered species.. Though, the need of collecting ecological data is many fold more. In the context of present study, where the time was a serious constraint for seasonal data collection on different ecological parameters, the focus was, therefore, on to collect data on current status of plants and animals as baseline information for future comparisons. Following methodology was adopted in order to collect scientific data. We attempted to create baseline information through 1) review of literature, 2) consultation and 2) first hand data collection through field surveys. Field Surveys In order to get the first hand information on the project and surrounding ecological status, field surveys were conducted. The field surveys were conducted to assess baseline status of flora and fauna between March - April - May 2017. 165

Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar Salient Observation of the Survey/ Study Area House pattern: It is notable that nearly 90% of the houses were pakka with good construction Employment: Main occupation of the people in the study area was agriculture and labour work. The labours were getting daily wage in the range of Rs. 100-250, depending on type of work involved Fuel: The primary source of cooking fuel is LPG. Most of the villagers use coal powder and fire wood for cooking purpose Main Crops: The principal crops grown in agricultural farm were paddy, sugarcane, pulses and mango. Average crop productivity of paddy was 12-15 quintal per acre. Water from dug well, cannel and bore well was used for irrigation Language: Official language and mother tongue of the people is Gujarati. Most of the people understand Hindi and English also. Migration: During survey it was found that local population were migrating for employment purpose in state. Sanitation: Toilet facility is one of the most basic facilities required in a house. The findings of the survey show that more than 90% of the households were having toilet facilities in their houses. There was no proper drainage line in the villages, but soak-pit facilities were observed in most of the villages surveyed. The overall condition of cleanliness was satisfactory. Drinking Water Facilities: Ground water is the major source of drinking water in the villages wherein hand pumps, tap water and dug wells are installed. Education Facilities: Most of the villages had education facilities in the form of Anganwadi and Primary Schools. Higher education facilities were available in the range of 5-10 km. Colleges and other diploma courses were available at Surat district. Transportation Facility: For transportation purpose Auto, Private Bus services were available. Transportation facilities were frequently available in the study area and connecting Surat city. Private vehicles like Bicycles & Motor Cycles were mostly used by villagers for transportation purpose 200

Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar Road Connectivity: Most of the roads were pucca and connecting to villages. Dambar roads were commonly seen inside the villages Communication Facilities: For communication purpose mainly mobile phones, newspaper & post offices were seen in the villages. Medical Facilities: There were few health care facilities available in the study area. In some of the villages, primary health sub centers were available. Hospitals and other better medical facilities were available in the range of 10-20 km at town/city place Electricity: All villages were availing electricity facility for all uses Market Facility: Study area was predominantly semi urban type. In villages, small shops were available for daily needs. Weekly market facility was available in some villages. Wholesale markets were available at town place. Recreation Facilities: Temples, Samaj Bhawan, Television and Radio were the main recreation facilities in the study area. Newspaper/Magazine facilities were also used by villagers Health Status There are primary health centers, Govt. hospitals and hospital in the project area. The distance of the Govt. health care centers varies between 5 to10km.the people generally are attended by doctors at local primary health centers and if necessary, they visit district places. The health centers are constrained by poor health infrastructure and weak monitoring of health related activities. People rarely travel to district place for treatment except for critical patients, since both time and cost of travel are not encouraging. The common mode of transport to a health centre or hospital is auto rickshaw. Average travel time to these health care centers varies from 10 minutes to 30 minutes, while average cost of one round trip journey is Rs. 20. In spite of distance to Govt. hospitals, the people depend on these only without consulting private practitioners or nursing homes, mainly because treatment at nongovernmental health care centers is expensive. It revealed that the general prevailing diseases in the project area are Malaria, Cold Cough, Respiratory infection, Skin Disease, and viral fever. The health problems as reported could be attributed to improper sanitation, dust, mosquito nuisance and unhygienic water in 201

There is sufficient Government health institution like Sub-center, PHC etc. as well as health workers and Asha workers doing actively work in the surveyed area. Cultural and Aesthetic Environment There are no historical, culturally and aesthetically important or tourist places in the study area. The nearest places are at Surat is near from the proposed site. However, there are few temples are main attraction in the study area. 202

Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar Awareness and Opinion of People about the Project Awareness is the state or ability to perceive, to feel, or to be conscious of events, objects or sensory patterns. In this level of consciousness, sense data can be confirmed by an observer without necessarily implying understanding. In general, an opinion is a subjective belief, and is the result of emotion or interpretation of facts. An opinion may be supported by an argument, although people may draw opposing opinions from the same set of facts. For assessing the awareness and opinion about the project activity socio-economic survey was conducted in the sampling villages during monitoring period in month of March 2017. The salient observations drawn through survey are described below: All villagers want good salary as well as permanent jobs and land. Villagers wants good infrastructure facility in there region. Villagers want good transportation facility. In order to enhance economical, safe and environment friendly movement of passenger and goods vehicles, it becomes necessary to enhance a good road network facility. This would also improve the socio-economic, industrial and agriculture activities in the region and this would simultaneously help in economic growth of the country. The status of women in the region as a whole is marginalized. Some villagers suggested that woman empowerment programme should be made by proponent Health problems of the villagers should be taken care of by providing basic health-care' facilities through health centers. People suggested that proponent should share information with local communities about environmental and social implications. 203

CHAPTER 4 Environmental Impact Assessment of Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar ENVIROMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is an activity or an attempt to identify, predict, evaluate and communicate the likely environmental impacts of the proposed expansion project on the surrounding environment. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT STUDY INCLUDES: Identification of all the probable impacts (be it positive or negative) of the various activities involved in the completion of the project. Classification of the probable impacts i.e. positive or negative, reversible or irreversible, short term or long term. Evaluation of the probable impacts i.e. qualitative and quantitative assessment of the likely impacts. Communication to the general public, interested parties, controlling authorities (Government or Municipality) through a Public Hearing process, revealing all the probable impacts, which are likely to occur due to the Proposed expansion project, on the environment. It also includes the mitigation measures of those impacts, which are inevitable. This chapter presents the identification, prediction and evaluation of impacts with mitigation measures of the proposed project of M/s. Vishrudh Organics Pvt Ltd.. effected in the baseline environmental status. 4.1 IMPACT IDENTIFICATION Considering that identification of significant environmental impact is essential in the preparation of EIA report, an attempt has been made here through the use of Activity Effect Matrix. 4.1.1 IDENTIFICATION MATRIX The impact identification matrix is shown in the Table No. 4.1. For simplicity the entire project has been divided into two phases: 1. Construction Phase 2. Operation Phase Various activities belonging to each phase have been grouped separately and arranged in Columns. The environmental Factor or Parameter, which are anticipated 204

Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar to be impacted, has been arranged in Rows. A preliminary scrutiny has been done and the cells, which fall at the junction of the Activity and Factor, that have possible interaction with each other, have been marked. The matrix thus establishes the possible cause-effect relationship and identifies the environmental factors likely to be impacted and activities responsible for the same. The impact identified may be positive and negative, short term and long term, reversible and irreversible, minor and major. This determination will be done at prediction stage. 4.1.1.1 Construction Phase Unit needs to do construction/ Foundation activity for proposed expansion project. The various activities involved in construction phase of a proposed expansion project are listed below: Construction / foundation.

Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar 4.2 IMPACT PREDICTION AND ASSESSMENT WITH MITIGATIVE MEASURES: This section is devoted to the prediction and assessment of impacts, which are the most important components of EIA. Such predictions are superimposed over the base-line status of the environmental quality to derive the ultimate environmental scenario. Prediction involves determination of the nature and extent of the probable impacts due to the Proposed expansion project. Here it is determined, whether the likely environmental impacts are: 1. Positive or Negative 2. Long term or Short term Prediction of impacts during the construction and operational phase is as Shown in Table No 4.2. Based on Environmental Impact Analysis, the Environmental Impacts under this step are quantitatively and qualitatively assessed. Quantitative assessment with the help of a mathematical model has been done wherever possible. In other cases, the impact assessment has been qualitative which is based on available scientific knowledge and judgment. The mathematical model used for prediction in the present study includes Industrial Source Complex Short Term Dispersion model for ambient air quality. For other cases i.e. Water, Noise, Land/Soil, Ecology, Socioeconomic etc., the available scientific knowledge and judgments have been used. 208

4.3 AIR ENVIRONMENT 4.3.1 Construction Phase Environmental Impact Assessment of Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar The impacts during construction phase will be short-term impacts as they will be limited to the period of construction. Unit has to do Construction activity / foundation work for installation of additional plant machineries and storage areas. These activities may result in temporary increase in SPM levels, primarily, in the working environment. Following mitigative measures during construction phase have been planned Impacts Mitigation Measures Dust Green belt development and water sprinkling will be carried out during the construction phase for suppression of dust. Air Pollution Vehicles and machinery will be regularly maintained so that ambient air quality confirms to National Ambient Air Quality Standards. Hence, the impacts on ambient air quality during construction phase will be marginal temporarily and reversible in nature (for short duration) and restricted to small plant area only. 4.3.2 Operation Phase Generally, the operational activities are expected to have long-term negligible impacts on the air quality. The operational activity from proposed expansion project is expected to have long term impact on the air quality. Major sources of air pollutants will be from existing and proposed flue gas stacks and process gas stacks. Generally, the operational activities are expected to have long-term impacts on the air quality. Major source of air pollutant is flue gases generated from the existing and proposed Steam Boiler, Hot Air generator and Dg set. The sorce of process gas emission will be from Reaction vessel, spray dryer and spin flash dryer. All the suitable precautionary measures will be taken for the control of fugitive emissions. Based on the above stated facts, predictions related to 209

Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar the Ground Level Concentrations (GLCs) have taken into account the emissions from the proposed flue gas stacks and process gas stacks. The concentration of pollutants at the ground level has been computed using computer model to assess the impact of source emissions from the existing installed stacks and proposed stacks which will be installed. Air quality impact assessment is an important study; Mathematical modeling is an established and accepted technique to predict the air quality. In this study, impact on environment due to the proposed expansion project has been assessed with the help of Mathematical modeling following the Central Pollution Control Boards Guidelines. The mathematical model used for conducting the study is the latest version of Industrial Source Complex. Model developed by the Environment Protection Agency of United States (ISC-3, 1996), which is entirely in line with the requirements of Central Pollution Control Board, New Delhi. A mathematical model developed by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is used for calculating GLCs. This is based, on the original Gaussian Plume Model equation but is defined in terms related to atmospheric phenomenon. The model used for assessment is an Aermod Model. The average and maximum Ground Level Concentrations (GLCs) have been determined for SPM, SO 2 and NOx. The average 24hrs. concentrations have been determined in polar grid of 10 0 up to 360 0 for a distance of 100m, 200m, 300m, 400m, 500m, 1000 m, 2000 m, 3000m, 5000m, 7000m, 8000m, 9000m, and 10000 m. has been calculated based on the micro-meteorological data collected from Envitrans for Ankleshwar station. The Dispersion modeling assumptions are considered as follows: 1. The receptor locations for 36 wind directions starting with 10 degrees and incrementing with 10 degrees for radial distances viz. 100m, 200m, 300m, 400m, 500m, 1000 m, 2000 m, 3000m, 5000m, 7000m, 8000m, 9000m, and 10000 m. has been taken for the Air Quality Modeling. 2. The impacts of the pollutants were identified up to 10000 meters. 3. The terrain of the study area was considered as FLAT. 4. Stability Class was evaluated based on Temperature Profile and Cloud Cover. 5. The mathematical equations used for the dispersion modeling assumes that the earth surface acts as a perfect reflector of plume and physicchemical process, such as dry and wet deposition, and chemical transformation of pollutants are negligible. 6. The micro-meteorological data viz. Temperature, Wind Speed, Wind Direction and Cloud Cover has been collected from the meteorological station of Ankleshwar by Envitrans. 210

Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar 4.4 MATHEMATICAL MODEL FOR POLLUTANTS DISPERSION In the present case Aermod model has been used to assess the air impacts. This Aermod model for stack uses the steady state Gaussian plume equation for a continuous elevated source. The features of this model are: Simulates dispersion from single/multi/area/line/volume sources. Allows calculations to be made at a user specified regular rectangular grids. Provides estimates of concentrations for any averaging time period for the entire period of input meteorology. Allows calculations to be underwriters for source group as selected by the uses. Uses the Briggs dispersion curves as selected by the user, to derive the plume spread parameters. Adjust dispersion curves to account for user specified information on aerodynamic roughness. Adjust for wind speed variation with height, using user specified default urban/rural power. Co-efficient. Simulâtes dispersion from buoyant non buoyant Point sources, non buoyant area, non buoyant volume sources and non buoyant line sources. User Brigg s plume rise algorithm to calculate plume height. For a steady-state Gaussian plume, the hourly concentration at downwind distance x (meters) and crosswind distance y (meters) is given by: 211

Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar QKVD X (x,y,z) = ------------------ exp [-0.5 (y/2 σ y ) 2 ]...Equation 1.1 2 p u σ y σ z Where: X = Concentration of pollutant at a point (x, y); (g/m 3 ) Q = Source strength (Pollutant Release Rate); (g/s) u = Horizontal wind speed at the source level; (m/s) σ y &σ z = Vertical & Horizontal crosswind dispersion coefficients respectively, which are a function of downwind distance 'x' and atmospheric stability; (m) K = a scaling coefficient to convert calculated concentrations to desired units (default value of 1 x 10 6 for Q in g/sec and concentration in µg/m 3 ) V = Vertical Term, which includes the effects of source elevation, receptor elevation, plume rise, limited mixing in the vertical, and the gravitational settling and dry deposition of particulate (with diameter greater than 0.1 microns) D = Decay Term The ISC model uses either a Polar or a Cartesian receptor network. In this case Polar receptor network has been used. 4.4.1 VERTICAL TERM The Vertical of the Gaussian plume. It includes the effects of source elevation, receptor elevation, plume rise, limited mixing in the vertical, and the gravitational settling and dry deposition of particulates. In addition to the plume height, receptor height and mixing height, the computation of the Vertical Term requires the vertical dispersion parameter (σ z ). The Vertical Term without Dry Deposition In general, the effects on ambient concentrations of gravitational settling and dry deposition can be neglected for gaseous pollutants and small particulates (less than about 0.1 microns in diameter). The Vertical Term without deposition effects is then given by: V = exp[ -0.5((z r - h e )/σ z ) 2 ] + exp [-0.5((z r + h e )/σ z ) 2 ] + Σ i = 1 { exp[-0.5(h 1 / σ z ) 2 ] + exp[ -0.5(H 2 / σ z ) 2 ] + exp[ -0.5(H 3 / σ z ) 2 ] + exp [-0.5(H 4 / σ z ) 2 ] }...Equation 1-2 212

Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar where: h e = h s + δh h s = stack height (mt) δh = Plume rise (mt) z r = receptor height above ground (flagpole) (mt) z i = mixing height (mt) H 1 = z r - (2iz i - h e ) H 2 = z r + (2iz i - h e ) H 3 = z r - (2iz i + h e ) H 4 = z r + (2iz i + h e ) The infinite series term in Equation 1- accounts for the effects of the restriction on vertical plume growth at the top of the mixing layer. The method of image sources is used to account for multiple reflections of the plume from the ground surface and at the top of the mixed layer. It should be noted that, if the effective stack height h e, exceeds the mixing height, z i, the plume is assumed to fully penetrate the elevated inversion and the ground-level concentration is set equal to zero. Equation 1-2 assumes that the mixing height in rural and urban areas is known for all stability categories. The meteorological preprocessor program uses mixing heights derived from twice-daily mixing heights calculated using the Holzworth procedures. The ISC models currently assume unlimited vertical mixing under stable conditions, and therefore delete the infinite series term in Equation 1-2 for the E and F stability categories. The Vertical Term defined by Equation1-2 changes the form of the vertical concentration distribution from Gaussian to rectangular (i.e., a uniform concentration within the surface mixing layer) at long downwind distances. Consequently, in order to reduce computational time without a loss of accuracy, Equation 1-2 is changed to the form: V = 2πσ z /z i...equation 1-3 at downwind distances where the σ z /z i ratio is greater than or equal to 1.6. The meteorological preprocessor program, RAMMET, used by the ISC Short Term model uses an interpolation scheme to assign hourly rural and urban mixing heights on the basis of the early morning and afternoon mixing heights calculated using the Holzworth procedures. The interpolation procedures are functions of the stability category for the hour before sunrise. Because of the uncertainties about the applicability of Holzworth mixing heights during periods of E and F stability, the ISC models ignore the interpolated mixing heights for E and F stability, and treat such cases as having unlimited vertical mixing. 213

4.4.2 THE DECAY TERN (D) Environmental Impact Assessment of Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar The Decay Term in Equation 1-1 is a simple method of accounting for pollutant removal by physical or chemical processes. It is of the form: D = exp(-ψ x/u s ) for Ψ> 0...Equation 1-4 or = 1 for Ψ = 0 where: Ψ = the decay coefficient (sec -1 ) ( a value of zero means decay is not considered) x = downwind distance (m) For example, if T 1/2 is the pollutant half life in seconds, the user can obtain Ψ from the relationship: Ψ = 0.693/T 1/2... Equation 1-5 The default value of Ψ is zero. That is, decay is not considered in the model calculations unless Ψ is specified. However, a decay half life of 4 hours ( Ψ = 0.0000481 sec -1 ) is automatically assigned for SO 2 when modeled in the urban mode. 4.4.3 WIND SPEED AT STACK HEIGHT The wind power law is used to adjust the observed wind speed, u ref, from a reference measurement height, z ref, to the stack or release height, h s. The stack height wind speed, u s, is used in the Gaussian plume equation (Equation 1-1), and in the plume rise formulas. The power law equation is of the form: u s = u ref (hs/z ref ) p...equation 1-6 Stability Rural Exponent Urban Exponent Category A 0.07 0.15 B 0.07 0.15 C 0.1 0.20 D 0.15 0.25 E 0.35 0.30 F 0.55 0.30 214

He = Hs + Hpr Where, Hpr. = Plume rise due to thermal and momentum factors. He = Effective stack height (m) Hs = Physical stack height (m) In the present case plums rise has been calculated by Brigg s formula (1975). The details of this equation are given below.

Generated RO Rejected wastewater @ 24.8 KLD will be send to ETP for primary treatment & RO Permeate water @ 36.0 KLD will be reuse back in to the process of Beta Blue manufacturing. Total spent acid generation from Proposed products will be 24.0 KLPD. Which will be primary treated and then after neutral effluent will be send to spray dryer with industrial effluent (28.5 KLPD). So, total treated effluent send to spray dryer will be 24.0 KLPD + 28.5 KLPD = 52.5 KLPD. Finally Unit will achieve zero liquid discharge unit. Ground water was tested at eight different locations in the study area. The ground water norms were compared to IS: 10500 (1991) for evaluation. Due to zero discharge unit, there will be no impact on ground water quality. 4.9 NOISE ENVIRONMENT 4.9.1 Construction Phase There will be slightly increase in noise level during construction phase due to erection and installation plant and plant machinery for propsoed dyes and pigment plant. But it is restricted to construction phase only and it will occur during day time, when construction activities will be in progress. 4.9.2 Operation Phase As per observations, the Ambient Noise Level is within norms of Industrial Area. With the implementation of the mitigation measures proposed, the noise levels at plant boundaries will be well below the limits specified for industrial areas. 239

Plot.No. 141/2/B, G.I.D.C. Industrial Estate, Ankleshwar-393002, Gujarat. The major sources contributing to Noise pollution during the plant operation will be, Boiler, HAG, Pumps, etc. The operation of the equipment will generate noise ranging between 70-80 db (A). The occasional noise will be attenuated by the development of green belt in and around the industry, which will be taken up right from the construction phase. Also ear protecting devices will be provided for personnel working in high noise generating zone. Thus, there is practically no impact on surrounding environment. 4.10 LAND ENVIRONMENT 4.10.1 Construction Phase Proposed expansion activity needs to do minor Excavation for proposed manufacturing activity. Unit will do construction activity for foundation work of plant, utility, collection tank for Effluent Treatment Plant, other buildings etc. Hence there will be minor impact on the surrounding soil environment and there will be no change in Land Use Pattern. 4.10.2 Operation Phase Source emission, wastewater and hazardous waste generation from any project activity affects the soil environment. The impact due to air causes direct/indirect effect on soil. The emissions of SPM during operation will be effectively controlled. There will be practically no effect on the soil quality due to air emissions. The sewage generated will be gone in the septic tank & soak pit. Vishrudh Organics Pvt Ltd. will take all reasonable precautions for wastewater seepage. Existing domestic Effluent is 0.5 KLPD. That is going to Soak pit via septic tank system. Existing Industrial effluent @ 2.0 KLPD. (Process, washing, boiler blow down, cooling blow down and scrubber effluent is treated in Effluent Treatment plant. Then after, treated effluent will be spray dried in their existing spray dryer. After expansion, Domestic effluent will be 1.5 KLPD, which will be sent to soak pit via septic tank. After proposed expansion, total industrial effluent generation will be 64.5 KLPD. 240

Plot.No. 141/2/B, G.I.D.C. Industrial Estate, Ankleshwar-393002, Gujarat. After expansion process effluent generation (max from beta Blue Product) will be 60.8 KLPD. It will be sent to RO Plant. Generated RO Rejected wastewater @ 24.8 KLD will be send to ETP for primary treatment & RO Permeate water @ 36.0 KLD will be reuse back in to the process of Beta Blue manufacturing. Total spent acid generation from Proposed products will be 24.0 KLPD. Which will be primary treated and then after neutral effluent will be send to spray dryer with industrial effluent (28.5 KLPD). So, total treated effluent send to spray dryer will be 24.0 KLPD + 28.5 KLPD = 52.5 KLPD. Finally Unit will achieve zero liquid discharge unit. As per the Hazardous Waste (Management & Handling) Amendment Rules, 2003, all necessary control steps for each type of Hazardous Wastes generated will be taken for the proposed expansion project. Hence, due to the proposed expansion project the, land use pattern; land cover and topography of the area will be changed only for the open land in existing premises. 4.11 ECOLOGY 4.11.1 Construction Phase Any construction activity brings changes in some components of the local Terrestrial ecosystem. These adverse impacts are restricted to the project Construction site and to some extent it's immediate surroundings. 4.11.2 Operation Phase Impacts on terrestrial ecosystem can occur due to operation of the any industrial project mainly from air emissions, liquid effluents as well as hazardous wastes generation, which can interfere with the biotic and abiotic components of the ecosystem and may induce injurious effects when concentrations exceed permissible standards. The proposed expansion project will be carried out on land within M/s. Vishrudh Organics Pvt Ltd. without cutting of any trees. The proposed expansion activity of the project does not alter the crop pattern and natural vegetation of the surrounding area. Due to the safe control technology of air pollutants, zero liquid effluent discharge and hazardous wastes disposal, no impact on the surrounding ecology is anticipated. Development of additional greenbelt/green area will improve the ecological 241

CHAPTER 6 Environmental Impact Assessment of Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar. ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN 6.1 INTRODUCTION Any industrial development is associated with certain positive impacts as well as some negative impacts on the environment. However, the negative or adverse impacts cannot possibly rule out scientific development. At the same time, adverse impacts cannot be neglected. An Environmental Management Plan has been formulated for mitigation of the adverse impacts and is based on the present environmental conditions and the environmental impact appraisal. This plan helps in formulating, implementing and in monitoring the environmental parameters during and after commissioning of the project. The Environmental Management Plan describes, in brief, the management's plan for proper and adequate implementation of treatment and control system for air and liquid pollutants and for maintaining the environment. It also includes development of green belts around the Plant, proper safety of the workers, noise control, fire protection systems and measures. This chapter provides mitigation and control measures to attenuate or eliminate environmental impacts, which are likely to be caused by the proposed expansion project. An Environmental Management Plan (EMP) has been developed to mitigate the potential adverse impacts and to strengthen the beneficial environmental impacts as well as to create positive environmental footprints during the construction and operation phases. The institutional capacity of Vishrudh Organics Pvt Ltd. as the owner & facility developer and the reporting requirement to fully implement the mitigation measures have also been described in this chapter. In addition to that during the operation phase, the company will have an additional responsibility to comply with the statutory requirements as per the guidelines of Central/ State Government. 6.2 The EMP The Environmental Management Plan (EMP) consists of a set of mitigation, monitoring and institutional measures to be taken during the design, construction and operation (post construction) stages of the project. The plan also includes the actions needed for implementation of these measures. Overall objective of EMP: Prevention: Measures aimed at impeding the occurrence of negative environmental impacts and/or preventing such an occurrence having harmful environmental impacts. 251

Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar. Preservation: Preventing any future actions that might adversely affect an environmental resource or attribute. Minimization: Limiting or reducing the degree, extent, magnitude, or duration of adverse impacts. The major components of the Environmental Management Plan are: Mitigation of potentially adverse impacts. Monitoring during project implementation and operation. Implementation schedule and environmental cost estimates. Integration of EMP with project planning, design, construction and operation. The EMP has been designed keeping in view the regulatory and other requirements to ensure the following: Minimum disturbance to the native flora and fauna. Compliance with the air, water, soil and noise quality norms. Conservation of water to the extent possible. Encourage the socio-economic development. 6.3 OBJECTIVES OF EMP The main objectives in formulating this environmental management plan are: To treat all the pollutants viz., liquid and gaseous which contribute to the degradation of the environment, with appropriate technology. To comply with all regulations stipulated by the Central / State Pollution Control Boards related to air emissions and liquid effluents discharges as per air and water pollution control laws To handle hazardous wastes as per the Hazardous Waste (Management and Handling Rules, 1989 of the Environment (Protection) Act, 1986 To encourage support and conduct developmental work for the purpose of achieving environmental standards and to improve the methods of environmental management. To promote further afforestation in the surrounding areas of the Plant To create good working conditions (devoid of air and noise pollution) for employees To reduce fire and accident hazards. Perspective budgeting and allocation of funds for environment management expenditure. Dissemination of technological solutions on Commercial basis to interested parties and Continuous Development and search for innovative technologies for a cleaner and better environment. 252

Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar. 6.4 BRIEF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN 6.4.1 CONSTRUCTION PHASE : Adequate and effective environment protection measures will be planned and designed to minimize the impacts due to activities related to preconstruction (preparatory phase) of the project, machinery installation and commissioning stages and end with the induction of manpower and start up. The impacts during the construction phase on the environment will basically be very insignificant as the project construction area is very small. Only foundation for RCC structure will be made. Ready mix Concrete will be used and therefore no possibility of fugitive emission due to material handling. In view of the above, the following measures are recommended to reduce the impact during this period: Due provision of necessary infrastructural services like water and power supply etc., for the construction area. All possible care will be taken to reduce the noise level due to construction activity. As planned, no such noise generating machineries will be used. Also, noise prone activities shall be restricted to the extent possible during night particularly during the period 10 PM to 6 AM in order to have minimum environmental impact. Activity Environmental Impacts Construction Phase: Erection of Air Plant Noise Machineries Socio Economic Mitigation measures Well maintained vehicles will be used. Metalled Road for Vehicle Movement Well maintained equipment will be utilized to prevent noise generation. Local labour will be hired for the work so that housing arrangement will be avoided.

It also causes aesthetic and climatologically improvements of an area as well as sustains and supports the biosphere. It is a well established fact that trees and vegetation act as a vast natural sink for the gaseous as well as particulate air pollutants due to enormous surface area of leaves. Plantation around the air pollution sources controls the air pollution by filtering particulate matter and interacting with gaseous pollutants before it reaches the earth. Tree plantation also acts as buffers and absorbers against accidental release of pollutants. 6.11 SELECTION OF TREES The choice of trees species, suitable for plantation at the Industry Site, has been governed by the following guiding factors: 1. As per guidelines issued by Ministry of environment & Forests for greenbelt development. 2. As per the study carried out by our FAE in Ecological & Biodiversity. 3. The tree must be tolerant to all the pollutants present in the area. 4. The tree should be able to grow and thrive on soil of the areas, be evergreen, in habitat, having minimum of leaf fall. 5. The tree must be tall in peripheral curtain plantation and with large and spreading canopy in the primary and secondary attenuation zones. 6. The tree should possess extensive foliar area to provide maximum impinge surface for continued efficient adsorption and absorption of pollutants. 7. The tree should be fast growing and indigenous. 8. The tree should maintain ecological, land and hydrological balance of the region. Total plot area is 6939 Sq. meter. From that they had done planning for gardening and plantation for 2079 Sq. Meter. This is 29.96 % of the total Plot Area. They will develop additional greenbelt in Ankleshwar GIDC Estate after obtaining required permission from the GIDC, Ankleshwar.. 271

Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar. The program will consist of the following elements: o Maintenance of greenbelt and vegetative zones within the plant where possible. o Plantation of trees and vegetation around the plant. o Maintenance of greenbelt on the both sides of nearby roads. o To provide tree guards to the local villagers. They had developed ~50 Trees in and around our premises and additional 50 tress will be developed by them. The tree species selected for the plantation will be pollutant tolerant, fast growing, wing firm, deep rooted, and ever green. The company will select pollutant tolerant plant species. They will also develop plantation as per the MoEF guidelines all along the periphery of plant so that these trees perform as natural barrier and bring down the fugitive emission and stop carryover of dust along with wind current. Budgetary expenditure for the greenbelt development has been depicted in the Table No. 6.1 TABLE 6.1 BUDGETARY EXPENDITURE FOR GBD Sr. No. Parameter Amount in Rs. 1 Site Development 100000.00 2 Plants/ Seeds 100000.00 3 Plant Care & Reg. 200000.00 TOTAL 400000.00 272

Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar. Wind breaker plant species will be (eg. Polyanlthia, Eucalytus, Casuarina, etc.) Planted around the periphery of near boundary walls. Grass mat along with combination flowering shrubs will be planned along the rest rooms. Potted plants and climbers will be used on the roof tops. All the corners inside the rooms of administration building and along the stair case, potted shrubs will be put and change time to time for watering, pruning and fertilizing. Fast growing species with more calorific value is preferable. Necessary help will be taken from the local DFO in development of green belt. Money plants like climbers will be used and make them to hang to avoid penetration dust inside the working areas. These climbers will be sprinkled regularly to remove adhered dust particles. Based on the demand of nutrients by soil the fertilizer input shall be given. These trees will be planted in about different rows. The interspaces will be planted with grasses, bushes and hedges. Choosing native plant species which suits to local environmental conditions will be encouraging (percentage survival) and also for sustainable ecosystem development. Plants with flowering will give good aesthetic look. 1 meter width will be kept for tree plantation around the project boundaries. The plant species for green belt is given below in Table- 6.2 Table 6.2 Plant Species for Green Belt Development SI.

Details of Strategy for the implementation of cleaner production activities: [WASTE MINIMIZATION, RECYCLE / REUSE / RECOVER TECHNIQUES] 1. Unit shall to do moping in their unit instead of washing of water. 2. Unit should try to minimize the excess raw material in batch, so it will reduces the unreacted raw material in effluent generation. Ultimately, it will reduce the concentration of effluent. 3. We shall provide fix pipeline in their unit to minimize the leakages. 4. After expansion process effluent generation (max from beta Blue Product) will be 60.8 KLPD. It will be sent to RO Plant. Generated RO Rejected wastewater @ 24.8 KLD will be send to ETP for primary treatment & RO Permeate water @ 36.0 KLD will be reuse back in to the process of Beta Blue manufacturing. ENERGY CONSERVATION: Energy Conservation and Energy Efficiency are separate, but related concepts. Energy conservation is achieved when growth of energy consumption is reduced, measured in physical terms. Energy Conservation can, therefore, be the result of several processes or developments, such as productivity increase or technological progress. On the other hand Energy efficiency is achieved when energy intensity in a specific product, process or area of production or consumption is reduced without affecting output, consumption or comfort levels. Promotion of energy efficiency will contribute to energy conservation and is therefore an integral part of energy conservation promotional policies. Energy efficiency is often viewed as a resource option like coal, oil or natural gas. It provides additional economic value by preserving the resource base and reducing pollution. For example, replacing traditional light bulbs with Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFLs) means you will use only 1/4th of the energy to light a room. Pollution levels also reduce by the same amount nature sets some basic limits on how efficiently energy can be 275

Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar. used, but in most cases our products and manufacturing processes are still a long way from operating at this theoretical limit. Very simply, energy efficiency means using less energy to perform the same function. 1. Inadequate control of steam supply wastes energy. So, we will investigate the possibility of installing automatic controls. 2. Monitoring drying operations enables energy consumption to be assessed and possibly reduced. Monitor parameters by us 3. Heat losses from dryers by radiation and convection will be minimized. And we will improve the insulation of dryers to save energy costs. 4. Routine cleaning and maintenance programme for the combustion system will improve efficiency and reduce energy costs. 5. Investigate the possibility of changing any upstream processes in order to decrease the water content before drying operations. Relatively minor modifications of upstream operating procedures may significantly reduce energy costs. 6. We will check, if it is possible to use heat recovered from the dryer exhausts in the drying process. Waste Heat Recovery System Understanding the process is essential for development of Waste Heat Recovery system. This can be accomplished by reviewing the process flow sheets, layout diagrams, piping isometrics, electrical and instrumentation cable ducting etc. Detail review of these documents will help us in identifying: a) Sources and uses of waste heat b) Upset conditions occurring in the plant due to heat recovery c) Availability of space d) Any other constraint, such as dew point occurring in an equipments etc. After identifying source of waste heat and the possible use of it, our next step is to select suitable heat recovery system and equipments to recover and utilize the same. Economic Evaluation of Waste Heat Recovery System It is necessary to evaluate the selected waste heat recovery system for our unit on the basis of financial analysis such as investment, depreciation, payback period, rate of return etc. In addition the advice of experienced consultants and suppliers must be obtained for rational decision. 276

Natural Resources Conservation: Environmental Impact Assessment of Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar. Renewable energy is energy obtained from sources that are essentially inexhaustible. Examples of renewable resources include wind power, solar power, geothermal energy, tidal power and hydroelectric power. The most important feature of renewable energy is that it can be harnessed without the release of harmful pollutants. Non-renewable energy is the conventional fossil fuels such as coal, oil and gas, which are likely to deplete with time. 6.14 CHECKLIST IN THE FORM OF DO S AND DON T.

Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar. 6.16 ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY: 1. We strive to completely understand the environmental impact of business activities at our factory, set forth goals and objectives regarding elements of activities that negatively impact the environment, and regularly revise our outlook in order to continually improve the environment. Areas in which we are directing particularly focused efforts are as follows. A. Seeking a reduction in environmental burden, we continually work towards improvements in output levels, minimize waste material production, and implement a natural resource and energy conserving philosophy. B. As a chemical factory, we handle a variety of chemical substances. However, we work towards prevention of environmental pollution by implementing appropriate management procedures with respect to environmental pollutants. C. As a factory that handles hazardous materials, we work to actualize safe operations by reducing accidents and trouble through absolute and constant awareness towards preventing explosions and fires. 2. While adhering to environmental laws, regulations, and agreements, we will work towards preventing environmental pollution. 3. We educate all our employees about environmental conservation and are working to heighten awareness and understanding of our environmental policy. At the same time, we perform environmental conservation activities from a wide range of viewpoints with a focus on the local community and global environment. The industry's management will actively initiate, develop and support the environmental policy, which is relevant to its activities, products and services and their environmental effects. Broadly this covers the following: Be consistent with the occupational health and safety policy and other industrial policies (such as quality policy); Indicate which of the industrial activities are covered by the environmental management system; 280

Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar. The corporate policy for Environmental Management is to create sound and eco-friendly environment for sustainable development at all production projects, plan new projects with environment -friendly considerations, plan regulative, ameliorative and mitigative measures to protect environment and fully merge into the overall corporate policy for achieving the targeted business goals of the Corporation. Objectives: The environmental policy is framed specifically to fulfill the following objectives: Create a work environment which enhances/motivates production and productivity. Create a residing environment for the enjoyment and peace of employee. Encourage safe and scientific operations and other well-established engineering practices. Promoting awareness amongst the employees and the neighborhood population for adopting environmentally friendly acceptable procedures and restricting environmental degradation and pollution to the barest minimum 6.17 INFRASTRUCTURE FACILITIES TO THE LABOURS DURING CONSTRCITON PHASE: During the construction period, there will be increase in floating population. The project will provide temporary employment of skilled and highly skilled manpower. Most of the people will be employees of contractors/sub-contractors. Additional strain on civic amenities like road, transport, communication, drinking water, sanitation and other facilities will take place, to meet the work force requirement. During the construction phase there will be increased demand of services, as most of the employees deployed during the construction period will be from local area. These include hotels, lodges, public transport (including taxis), etc. There will also be ample opportunities for providing these services. In addition to the opportunity of getting employment as construction laborers, the local population would also have employment opportunities in related service activities like petty commercial establishments, small contracts/subcontracts and supply of construction materials for buildings and ancillary infrastructures etc. Consequently, this may lead to economic upliftment of the area. The movement of work force to and from the place of work and the movement of vehicles carrying equipment and construction material is expected to increase the stress on the local transport and road network. However, considering the number of people deployed, the impact on road/traffic is marginal and temporary. Consumer Prices: Usually the local population will be affected by inflationary trend sometime later, when prices of local services and produce, egg, fish, vegetables, milk, etc. start rising. This will happen only when a sizeable staff of the project and other associate 281

Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar. companies settle permanently in the area. However any such rise in consumer prices is anticipated because the influx of population due to the project activities is minimal. Transport and Civil Construction: The transport companies would benefit from the construction of the plant. Services: The services like retail shops, banks, and automobile workshops; health care, etc. will expand in and near the plant. Employment: Large-scale influx of material and money tend to increase the employment opportunities. Transport: Transport services on the connecting road will improve further. Traffic: The plant construction phase will also see a moderate increase in traffic. Development of Slums: The contractors have to necessarily provide basic amenities like water supply, sanitation, electricity etc. at the labor camp to maintain hygienic condition and aesthetics. 282

Risk Management & Insurance Planning: Lack of identification and analysis of all risks and insurance planning so that interruption risks and public liability risks could also be managed effectively. To assess fire risk assessment in the industrial unit following steps shall be considered and measures shall be taken. FIRE RISK ASSESSMENT o Identification & assessment of fire risks during operations in receipt, storage, transfer and handling of chemicals (raw materials and finished products). o Identification & control of ignition sources in areas where flammable chemicals will be stored/handled/transferred. o Review of chemical compatibility in storage areas and to suggest appropriate fire loss control measures. o Review of fire detection measures adopted in the plant & to suggest suitable improvement measures. o Review of the various active (fire hydrant, sprinkler, portable fire extinguishers) and passive fire protection requirements for chemical storage and handling areas and to suggest improvements as necessary. o Review of contractor safety awareness (chemical spill, fire fighting, emergency communication, knowledge of plant hazards & safety regulations) and to recommend suitable improvement measures to enhance contractor safety. o Review of safety awareness and safety training requirements (training identification and efficacy) of plant employees with respect to hazards present in the plant. 285

Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar RISK ANALYSIS & EMERGENCY PLAN o Identification of scenarios of potential disasters/emergencies leading to loss of life, property damage etc. and qualitative assessment of their likelihood. o Recommendations for risk control measures wherever applicable. o Preparation of onsite emergency preparedness plan. RISK MANAGEMENT & INSURANCE PLANNING Identification of all major internal and external pure risks including the natural risks and analysis of the impact of above risks. Scrutiny of all existing major insurance policies in respect of: 1. Rationalization of basic rate of premium and widening of covers. 2. Applicability/eligibility of discounts in premium. 3. Application of suitable clauses, warranties and conditions. Identification of possible areas for refund of premium and suggestions regarding procedure for the same. Selection of insurance coverage on the basis of risk analysis. Evaluation of business interruption exposure due to identified risks. Providing guidelines on documentation requirements, procedures for claims under various policies, evaluation of insurers. Risk Assessment including prediction of the worst case scenario and maximum credible accident scenario should be carried out. The worst case scenario has been taken into account the maximum inventory of storage at site at any point in time. The risk contours should be plotted on the map clearly showing which of the facilities and surrounding units would be affected in case of an accident taking place.

Disaster occurs when a hazard or a threat rises in vulnerable condition and the trend reflects an increase in both. To uphold righteous image of an organization, Disaster Management is of prime importance. For tackling the major consequences inside the port and in the vicinity of port DMP has to be formulated and this planned emergency document is called DISASTER MANAGEMENT PLAN. Indian industry of late has begun to be aware of the necessity to apply more systematic approaches to safety particularly in plant design. Primarily, safety in the design of plant extends to the application of various codes of practice or design codes, which are based on the wide experience and knowledge of professional experts and specialists in the industry. Such application is backed by the experience of local plant managers and engineers who have been involved in similar plants and who have direct experience in their operation over a number of years. The main objective of evolving this emergency and disaster control plan is to create a procedure and infrastructure based on combined resources of the factory and the outside services with a view to minimize emergencies and disaster. This may arise as a result of usage, handling and storage of certain toxic, corrosive, inflammable and explosive materials used in the manufacturing process and any other emergencies which may directly or indirectly affect the employees, property and local community. Objectives are further classified as under: Rescue operation and treatment of persons affected by the emergency. Safeguard of other persons not affected by the emergency. Keep the damage to property and environment at a minimum level. Initially contain the impact of incident and ultimately bring the incident under control. Provide authentic information to outsiders and media. Rehabilitation of affected person. Preservation of relevant records. Inquiry into the cause of emergency situations and then analysis to prevent recurrence. 287

Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar PURPOSE OF PLAN: To save lives and injuries, To prevent or reduce property losses, For protection of environment, For protection of installation & restoration of production, To provide help for quick continuation of normal situation or operation. More specifically the elements that will form the backbone of the emergency preparedness organization are: o Availability organization and utilization of resources for facility emergencies. o Accident evaluation procedures. o The command, coordination and responsible organization structure. o Notification and communication mechanism. o Training exercises and plans maintenance. Emergencies and disasters can happen at any moment - and, they usually occur without warning. When an emergency strikes, immediate safety and prompt recovery are depends on the existing levels of preparedness among workers and management. Emergency incidents that may occur, including Earthquakes Fires or Explosions Hazardous Materials Releases Extended Power or Utility Outages Floods Mass Casualty Events As discussed in earlier chapters, emergencies are classified as minor or major, according to their severity and potential impact. The Disaster management of any firm mainly covers steps like PREPAREDNESS, RESPONSE and RECOVERY PREPAREDNESS is a first step to assemble appropriate human and physical resources before any emergency occurs, So the industry shall have a designated an Emergency Coordinator with the management experience and financial authority to deal with the Disaster plan. 288

An emergency in the premises has the potential to cause serious injury or loss of lives or extensive damage to the property and/or environment and serious disruption both inside and outside the plant. In such cases sometimes outside agencies are required to call for help in handling the situation. The causative factors like plant/equipment failure, human error, earth quake, sabotage etc. will normally manifest in various forms viz. Fire, Explosion, Toxic release, structure collapse etc. This OEP lays down the code of conduct of all personnel in the Plants and the procedures to be adopted by them in the event of an "Emergency". These procedures have been prepared taking into account the minimum strength of manpower available at all times in the premises. The individuals under the direction of the respective Team Leaders shall carry out the responsibilities assigned. The emergency procedures outlined are suitable for round the clock coverage including holidays. These emergency procedures shall be followed as outlined in the OEP during general shifts as well. OBJECTIVES: The overall objectives of OEP are: To control the situation and if possible eliminate as quickly as possible.

Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar OFFSITE EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS PLAN The task of preparing the Offsite Emergency Plan lies with the District Collector; however the offsite plan will be prepared with the help of the local district authorities. The proposed plan will be based on the following guidelines. Introduction o Offsite emergency plan would follow the onsite emergency plan. When the consequences of an emergency situation go beyond the plant boundaries, it becomes an offsite emergency. o Offsite emergency is essentially the responsibility of the public administration. However, the plant management will provide the public administration with the technical information relating to the nature, quantum and probable consequences on the neighbouring population. o The offsite plan in detail will be based on those events, which are most likely to occur, but other less likely events, which have severe consequence, will also be considered. Incidents which have very severe consequences yet have a small probability of occurrence would also be considered during the preparation of the plan. o However, the key feature of a good offsite emergency plan is flexibility in its application to emergencies other than those specifically included in the formation of the plan. o The roles of the various parties who will be involved in the implementation of an offsite plan are described below. Depending on local arrangements, the responsibility for the offsite plan would either rest with the plant management or with the local authority. o Either way, the plan would identify an emergency coordinating officer, who would take the overall command of the offsite activities. As with the onsite plan, an emergency control centre would be setup within which the emergency coordinating officer can operate. o An early decision will be required in many cases on the advice to be given to people living o "Within range" of the accident - in particular whether they should be evacuated or told to go indoors. In the latter case, the decision can regularly be reviewed in the event of an escalation of the incident. o Consideration of evacuation may include the following factors: In the case of a major fire. Only houses close to the fire are likely to need evacuation, although a 297

Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar severe smoke hazard may require this to be reviewed periodically; and if a fire is escalating and in turn threatening a store of hazardous material, it might be necessary to evacuate people nearby, but only if there is time; if insufficient time exists, people should be advised to stay indoors and shield them from the fire. o This later case particularly applies if the installation at risk could produce a fireball with very severe thermal radiation effects. Aspects Proposed to be considered in the Offsite Emergency Plan The main aspects, which should be included in the emergency plan, are: Organization Detail of command structure, warning systems, and implementation procedures, emergency control centres. Names and appointments of incident controller, site main controller, their deputies and other key personnel. Communications Identification of personnel involved, communication centre, call signs, network, list of telephone numbers. Specialized Knowledge Details of specialist bodies, firms and people upon whom it may be necessary to call e.g. those with specialized fuel knowledge, laboratories. Voluntary Organizations Details of organizers, telephone numbers, resources etc Fuel Information Details of the hazardous substances stored and a summary of the risk associated with them. Meteorological Information Arrangements for obtaining details of weather forecasts and weather conditions prevailing at that time. Humanitarian Arrangements Transport, evacuation centres, emergency feeding, treatment of injured, first aid, ambulances and temporary mortuaries. Responsibility of the Emergency Co-ordinating Officer The various emergency services would be co-ordinated by an Emergency Coordinating Officer (ECO), who will be designated by the district collector. The ECO would liaison 298

Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar closely with the site main controller. Again depending on local arrangements, for very severe incidents with major or prolonged offsite consequences, the external control would be passed to a senior local authority administrator or even an administrator appointed by the central or state government. The ECO will be equipped with address and phone numbers of important agencies. Responsibility of Police Formal duties of the police during an emergency include protecting life and property and Controlling traffic movements. Their functions should include controlling bystanders, evacuating the public, identifying the dead and dealing with casualties, and informing relatives of death or injury. Responsibility of the Local Authority The duty to prepare the offsite plan lies with the local authorities. The emergency planning Officer (EPO) appointed should carry out his duty in preparing for a whole range of different emergencies within the local authority area. The EPO should liaison with the plant, to obtain the information to provide the basis for the plan. This liaison should ensure that the plan is continually kept up to date. It will be the responsibility of the EPO to ensure that all those organizations which will be involved offsite in handling the emergency, know of their role and are able to accept it by having for example, sufficient staff and appropriate equipment to cover their particular responsibilities. Rehearsals for offsite plans should be organized by the EPO. Responsibility of Fire Authorities The control of a fire should be normally the responsibility of the senior fire brigade officer who would take over the handling of the fire from the site incident controller on arrival at the site. The senior fire brigade officer should also have a similar responsibility for other events, such as explosions. Fire authorities in the region should be appraised about the location of all stores of flammable materials, water and foam supply points, and fire fighting equipment. They should be involved in onsite emergency rehearsals both as participants and, on occasion, as observers of exercises involving only site personnel. Responsibility of Health Authorities Health authorities, including doctors, surgeons, hospitals, ambulances and so on, should have a vital part to play following a major accident, and they should form an integral part of the emergency plan. For major fires, injuries should be the result of the effects of thermal radiation to a varying degree, and the knowledge and experience to handle this in all but extreme cases may be generally available in most hospitals. Major off site incidents are likely to require medical equipment and facilities additional to Those available locally, and a medical "mutual aid scheme should exist to enable the Assistance of neighbouring authorities to be obtained in the event of an emergency. Responsibility of Government Safety Authority 299

Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar This will be the factory inspectorate available in the region. Inspectors are likely to satisfy Themselves that the organization responsible for producing the offsite plan has made adequate arrangements for handling emergencies of all types including major emergencies. They may wish to see well documented procedures and evidence of exercise undertaken to test the plan. In the event of an accident, local arrangements regarding the role of the factory inspector will apply. These may vary from keeping a watch, to a close involvement in advising on operations. 7.4 SOCIAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT Operational phase of the proposed expansion unit cover the entire life span of the project. The proposed expansion project will generate direct employment for local persons. The indirect employment will also be generated by way of transportation, shopkeepers and other casual employment for many people. Local people will be given training and preference for almost all the jobs in the plant, direct as well as indirect. Economic status of the local people will be improved due to the increased business opportunities, thereby, making a positive impact. Educational, medical and housing facilities in the study area will considerably improve. Thus, the proposed expansion project will have long term-irreversible positive impact on the employment pattern of the study area. 300

CHAPTER - 8 PROJECT BENIFITS Environmental Impact Assessment of Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar 8.1 Project Benefits : Due to Proposed expansion project, 15-20 nos. of local people and outside people will get employment during the construction phase. Man power details for existing plant and propsoed expansion activity are as follows. Status Total in all Shifts Male Female Total Existing 10-10 Proposed 28 2 30 Total 38 2 40 Local people will be given preference for almost all the jobs in the Plant, direct as well as indirect. Economic status of the local people will be improved due to the increased business opportunities, thereby, making a positive impact. Educational, medical and housing facilities in the study area will considerably improve. Therefore, social infrastructure of the study area will be improved. The company will also do following developmental activities in the area: The proposed expansion Project does not involve any displacement of villages; however it will lead to development of the region and increase in infrastructure facility. During the operation phases of the project a work force will be needed which will include both skilled and unskilled people. Due to the proposed expansion project direct employment for local employees will be generated. In addition to direct employment, indirect employment will generate ancillary business to some extent for the local population. Due to the proposed expansion Project, facilities are likely to grow with the development. There is a positive effect due to improved communication and health services, which have lead to economic prosperity, better educational opportunities and access to better health and family welfare facilities. There will be beneficial effect on human settlement due to employment opportunities from the industry. Local quality of life will be improved. This factor combined with all other mitigation measures like proper treatment and disposal of wastewater, hazardous waste and gaseous emission has minimized the adverse impact on ecology and had a beneficial impact on human settlement and employment opportunities. There has been a beneficial impact on the local socio-economic environment. The increasing industrial activity will boost the commercial and economical status of the locality up to some extent. 301

CHAPTER 9 Environmental Impact Assessment of Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar SUMMARY OF ENV. IMPACTS & CONCLUSION The environmental impacts of projects or actions generally encompass a broad range of impact from Air and Noise pollution to affect on employment and neighborhood as well as on social structure. All of these impacts vary in magnitude as well as in their beneficial or adverse classification. As a result, a natural question arises as to what is the collective or overall environmental impact of the project or action taken. Is the project beneficial or is it adverse? To answer such a question requires a comparison of these impacts and to some extent subjective evaluation of those impacts which are more important than others. Environment Impact Assessment as detailed in previous chapter can now be concise to impact statement given below. 9.1 AIR ENVIRONMENT Meteorological data collected during the study period confirms that climatic Status of the study area is consistent with the regional meteorology. Average concentration of ambient air quality parameters such as PM 10, PM 2.5, SO 2, NOx, HCl in the surrounding study area are well within the permissible limits as prescribed in the National Ambient Air Quality (NAAQ) Standards for respective residential rural areas and industrial areas. Evaluated GLCs due to the Existing and proposed air pollution load in Existing and proposed stacks. When added to the monitored existing ambient air quality and flue gas emission, provides the expected ambient air quality when the fuel qty will be considered for the existing utility and proposed utility and the same indicates that expected AAQ are well within the permissible limit of National Ambient Air Quality Standards for residential rural areas as well as industrial areas. It is concluded from the above that there will be a minor impact on the AAQ of the surrounding environment due to operation of the proposed expansion project. 9.2 WATER ENVIRONMENT M/s. Vishrudh Organics Pvt. Ltd. is an existing unit and the source of water for proposed expansion activity will be GIDC Water Supply.. The quality of the water was tested at Eight locations in the study area. The ground water norms were compared to IS: 10500 (1991) for evaluation. The Industry generates Industrial effluent apart from process, washing, Cooling Tower blow down, Scrubber and domestic effluent. 302

Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar Details off water Consumption:- Existing water consumption is 6.0 KLPD. From that domestic water consumption is 1.0 KLPD and Industrial water consumption is 5.0 KLPD. After expansion, total water consumption will be 113 KLPD. From that 77.0 KLPD will be Fresh water and 36.0 KLPD will be recycle water. After expansion total industrial water consumption will be 109.5 KLPD, gardening water consumption will be 0.5 KLPD and domestic water consumption will be 3.0 KLPD. After proposed expansion, Total water consumption will be 113 KLPD. Management of waste water: Existing domestic Effluent is 0.5 KLPD. That is going to Soak pit via septic tank system. Existing Industrial effluent @ 2.0 KLPD. (Process, washing, boiler blow down, cooling blow down and scrubber effluent is treated in Effluent Treatment plant. Then after, treated effluent will be spray dried in their existing spray dryer. After expansion, Domestic effluent will be 1.5 KLPD, which will be sent to soak pit via septic tank. After proposed expansion, total industrial effluent generation will be 64.5 KLPD. After expansion process effluent generation (max from beta Blue Product) will be 60.8 KLPD. It will be sent to RO Plant. Generated RO Rejected wastewater @ 24.8 KLD will be send to ETP for primary treatment & RO Permeate water @ 36.0 KLD will be reuse back in to the process of Beta Blue manufacturing. Total spent acid generation from Proposed products will be 24.0 KLPD. Which will be primary treated and then after neutral effluent will be send to spray dryer with industrial effluent (28.5 KLPD). So, total treated effluent send to spray dryer will be 24.0 KLPD + 28.5 KLPD = 52.5 KLPD. Finally Unit will achieve zero liquid discharge unit. Thus, it can be concluded that due to zero discharge unit for the Existing and Proposed expansion activity, negligible impact on surrounding water environment is caused. Further, it is emphasized that all precautionary measures have to be strictly 303

Plot No.141/2/B, GIDC Estate, Ankleshwar adhered as mentioned in the Environmental Management Plan given in Chapter 6, to maintain ground water quality within norms in the future. 9.3 NOISE ENVIRONMENT Base line data indicates that noise levels in the study area are not on higher sides. Noise level in and around plant site were measured. Measured noise levels within premises indicate that overall noise levels are within the Damage Risk Criteria. The company will provide ear-protecting devices/ earplugs for working personnel exposed to high noise level. It can be concluded that there will be no impact on the noise level of the surrounding environment. 9.4 HAZARDOUS WASTES As per the Hazardous Waste (Management & Handling) Amendment Rules, 2003, all necessary control steps for each type of Hazardous Wastes generated from the proposed expansion project will be taken. Therefore, no impact of hazardous wastes generation on surrounding soil environment is anticipated. 9.5 ECOLOGY The proposed expansion project will be carried out on land within their premises without cutting of any trees. Also, the project site is located in Industrial Estate and non-agricultural land devoid of any permanent ecosystem. So it does not alter the crop pattern and natural vegetation of the surrounding area. Due to the safe control technology of air pollutants, liquid effluents and solid/hazardous wastes disposal, no impact on the surrounding ecology is anticipated. 9.6 SOCIO - ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT The proposed expansion project will generate direct employment for employment persons. The indirect employment will be generated by way of transportation, shopkeepers and other casual employment. Implementation of this plant will also reduce production loss due to shortage of power.
