Environmental Management Plan

9. Anticipated Impacts & Mitigation Measures due to proposed project

The environment management plan is prepared with a view to facilitate effective environmental management of the project in general and implementation of the mitigation measures in particular. The EMP provides a delivery mechanism to address potential adverse impacts and to introduce standards of good practice to be adopted for all project works. The anticipated impacts due to mining and allied activities are air, noise, land, water and socio-economic along with the mitigations to the extent possible are described in the following paragraphs. 9.1 Sources of Pollution and Control measures The major sources of pollution are air and noise due to proposed mine from blasting and transportation of material to the far places. 9.1.1 Air Pollution and its Mitigation Anticipated Sources of Air Pollution

Digging & Excavation (Dust, Non-fugitive) Loading & unloading and Transportation by vehicles (fugitive and line

sources Air Quality Management Road - Regular repair (every 6 months) and Grading -Regular water sprinkling on haulage roads during dry conditions Drilling -Wet drilling and usage of sharper drill bits Trucks -Avoid overloading of trucks and unnecessary idling of vehicles Movement - Trucks to be covered with tarpaulin/plastic Enforcing speed limit (<25 kmph) Plantation -Green belt development and avenue plantation

Page No. 12

9.1.2 Noise pollution and its mitigation Sources of Noise 1. Loaded trucks movement generates 80- 84 dB (A) (2-3 trucks short time stay at mine area) 2. Digging and excavation activities - 70 dB(A) (Only during day time) 3. Blasting (Occasionally) & drilling- (89 dB(A)), blasting gives only outburst of noise (if required Blasting operations only for few minutes ) 4. Normal values when mining is not in operation (40-45 dB(A) Control Measures

• Mining operations will be carried out during day time only and avoid inconvenience to the nearby habitations

• The noise propagation values found to be less than the prescribed noise limits

• Ear plugs will be provided to the noise prone areas • Blasting will be done through controlled methods (occasionally) • Vehicular maintenance will ensure less noise. • Usage of sharp teeth on the JCB will reduce noise during loading operations •

9.1.3 Water Quality There are no perennial streams existing within the QL area, nor there are any springs in the lease. The shallow minor streams, which are few and area in the southern part of QL, act as drains of rain water during the monsoon months. Ground water table occurs at a depth of 60 m below ground level as observes and as per the gathered information in the nearby villages in summer and 55m during the rainy season. The working is expected to be above the ground water level as ultimate depth of quarry, which is above the water table in the area. Hence there will not be any impact on ground water regime of the quarry lease area and its surroundings. 10.0 Occupational Safety and Health Safety precautions as per Metalliferrous mines Regulations and Mine Rules

and Act shall be taken. Minimum distance of 7.5 m will be left all along the mine lease boundary.

The mined out area will be kept out of bounds for public by providing fencing.

Occupational Safety and Health to Control Exposure to Noise

* Reducing the exposure time of workers to the higher noise levels

* Smooth blasting techniques, special explosives and silent non-explosive demolishing agent will be used.

11.0 House Keeping Proper house keeping and cleanliness will be maintained in the infrastructure facilities. Wet mopping will be adopted to conserve water. Sign boards will be provided in the work areas and the road and building highlighting the safety and occupational aspects. 12.0 Transport Systems

The materials while transporting do not pose any hazard. Sufficient parking facilities will be provided for vehicles loading and unloading of material. Safety signs will be displayed inside and outside the mine to avoid road accidents. 13.0 Afforestation Programme and Flora-fauna The quarry does not cover any forest land and comprises of mainly Govt.Waste lands. Occasionally, a few shrubs are noticed in the area and the lease land exhibits rocky nature and at places covered with soil cover. Some of the fauna present are mostly domestic animals like cow, goat and sheep are observed in the area. Flora and Fauna Due to water stress conditions and edaphic factors the biomass cover is less.

Tree coverage is less and mostly herbs and shrubs are dominating. The vegetation is very scarce. No plant species is found that is ecologically

important (Rare, endangered, threatened etc.) restricted to this area. The loss of biomass can be compensated by providing ideal conditions

(proper supervision, water, fertilizer etc.) for the proposed greenbelt. Other than domestic animals no ecologically important animals are reported

in this area. 13.1 Proposed afforestation It is proposed to plant 180 saplings in an area of 0.40 ha. over the 1years period at southern side of buffer zone & restricted area of the Q.L area as there is some soil cover which can sustain vegetation and free of any infrastructure etc. and the survival rate would be 70% due to barren conditions with inadequate soil quantities soil available.
