This section in brief outlines the environmental performance of the project for the period FY 2016-17 in consistent with the IFC Performance Standards & EHS Guidelines, ADB Summary Environmental Impact Assessment including Environmental Management Plan developed for the project. The assessment and findings matrix has been presented in Table 3-1 for necessary reference.

3.2 Environmental Performance

3.2.1 Environment Organization Structure & Capacity Building

In FY 2016-17, CGPL has engaged Mr. Arunachal Mudgirkar as Chief Sustainability Officer (CSO) after earlier CSO left the organisation. CSO’s main role is to drive onsite Environment & Social initiatives and drive overall performance. Both CSR and Environment Department is currently reporting to the CSO.

CGPL has outsourced monthly environmental monitoring to third party agency namely M/s. Kadam Environmental Consultants, Gujarat from August’16 onwards. The agency is NABL accredited and recognized by MoEF&CC.

3.2.2 Integrated Management System (IMS) Development

CGPL in coordination with an external consultant has prepared the IMS and has obtained certification for its Integrated Management System (IMS) in July 2014. The incorporation of applicable legal (CTO, EC, etc.) and funding agency requirements (IFC Performance Standards, IFC EHS Guidelines, etc.) in the legal register and their references in the relevant environmental procedures and SOP is done. The same is updated as per procedural or legal requirement.

3.2.3 Consent Management

CGPL has valid environmental permits/consents for project operations, hazardous and biomedical waste management from Gujarat Pollution Control Board, MoEF and is carrying out periodic compliance reporting to these regulatory authorities as required under specific consent conditions.

CGPL has received revised renewed Consolidated Consent and Authorization (CC&A) from GPCB with validity upto 17/05/2021. The emission limits for SO2 and NOx have been removed from the CC&A.

3.2.4 Coal Quality & Consumption

CGPL is currently utilizing blended coal (Melawan with Ecocoal) for operation of all the 5 units. Review of the coal quality and consumption records for the period 2016-17 reveal compliance to Environmental Clearance (EC) requirement to this aspect (ash content ≤10% and sulphur content ≤1%).

CGPL to continue periodically monitoring the consumption and quality of coal.

3.2.5 Fly Ash Management

Review of fly ash generation and utilization records for the period 2016-17 reveals that over the period of this one year, fly ash utilization has reached around 98%. The fly ash is mainly sent to Sanghi and Binani cement. CGPL’s discussions with overseas companies on fly ash export are in progress.

CGPL need to continue the implementation of fly ash utilization option to achieve requirement of Fly Ash Notification dated 2009 and also periodically update the lenders/stakeholder on the overall implementation status.

3.2.6 Ash Pond – Structural Integrity & Leachate Collection

Based on the various observations made in 2016-17, CGPL had undertaken various activities related to ash pond like: cleaning of toe drains, maintenance of vertical drains, clarifier and slurry pipeline, etc. Garlanding of discharge pipe inside dyke to uniformly fill the ash, regular maintenance works related to clarifier and slurry pipeline to facilitate reuse of overflow for preparation of slurry has been undertaken thus fulfilling the EMP requirement to implement an Ash Water Recycling System (AWRS) to optimize water usage.

CGPL has formulated Cross Functional Team (CFT) for monitoring progress of the ash pond works and the same regularly visits ash pond area and monitor/assess work undertaken/required work.

CGPL had test planted samplings of Salvadora perica plant species for stabilization of ash pond slope. But the results were not satisfactory over the period of time. CGPL team is working with their in house ecology experts on exploring other flora species which could be used for plantation on ash pond slope, which needs to be undertaken on fast track basis.

Some of the areas on ash pond showed seepage. Reportedly CGPL is working with its Cross Functional Team (CFT) for assessing this issue.

3.2.7 Hazardous Waste Management

CGPL possess valid hazardous waste authorization from GPCB as occupier of the facility generating the following hazardous wastes viz. used oil, discarded chemical containers, spent ion exchange resins, chemical sludge from waste treatment, waste residue containing oil, spent solvents etc. CGPL is continuing with the submission of annual returns specifying details of hazardous waste disposal to GPCB in prescribed format along with maintenance of manifest for hazardous waste disposed. For the period 2016-17, used oil and discarded containers were disposed through authorized waste recycler.

3.2.8 Management of Cooling Water Discharge

Review of manual monitoring undertaken by CGPL of cooling water at final discharge point (near retaining wall of outfall channel) for the period 2016-17 indicated that an average temperature difference of 3.6 ºC indicating conformance to the temperature difference standard of 7ºC at the cooling water discharge point specified by the MoEF EC Amendment dated 5th April’07.

3.2.9 Performance of Waste Water Treatment Facilities

Review of the monitoring records of the treated water quality for the plant STP at the project site indicated satisfactory performance as per CC&A limits. Review of monitoring records for ETP effluent for the period 2016-17 reveal compliance with WB norms.

Monitoring of ash pond effluent for the parameters viz. pH, suspended solids and oil & grease as specified in the CC&A was found to be within limits expect for pH which was observed slightly more than 8.5 limit on few days.

3.2.10 Flue Gas Emission & ESP Performance


5

CGPL performs regular monitoring of flue gas emissions through manual monitoring to check conformance with the emission standards specified by World Bank Group Guidelines for Thermal Power Plants at same time evaluating the performance of electrostatic precipitators (ESPs) and low NOx burners installed as air pollution control devices.

Statistical analysis of manual monitoring results in all cases reveals compliance to the World Bank emission standards for PM10, PM2.5, SO2 and NOX along with compliance to CC&A limit for PM10.

3.2.11 Ground Water Monitoring

The quality of ground water near ash pond area is being assessed by CGPL through regular monitoring of the bore wells installed within the project site. Fluoride values generally varied within 2.9-3.4 mg/l. Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) values generally varied within 788.8-19928 mg/l. Heavy metals like Cd, Cr, Pb, Hg were found to be below detectable limit (BDL).

3.2.12 Ambient Air & Noise Quality Monitoring

CGPL continues to assess the potential impacts of the project operations on ambient environment through monthly monitoring of air and noise quality at various receptor locations. The receptor locations have been selected based on their proximity to the project facilities viz. coal conveyor, coal stockpile, etc. and predominant wind direction and topography.

Review of village and project level ambient air quality monitoring data reveals compliance to National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) except for PM10 which is found to exceed the standard (100 µg/m3). This is typical for coastal locations in this region and also attributed due to the proximity of some villages viz. Vandh to the coal conveyors of Adani and CGPL thermal power plants.

Majority of day time noise levels monitored at the receptor locations were found to be in compliance with the day time noise standards except for few exceptions in villages like Vandh, Siracha and Moti Khakhar on few occasions. For night time the noise level were observed to be higher than night time noise standards at majority of occasions. In view of this CGPL has already adopted necessary control measures viz. pipe conveyor near Vandh village, peripheral green belt development etc. and is also carrying out periodic monitoring to assess the efficiency of the management measures and plan necessary intervention, as may be required. For noise monitored within project premises all values were found to be complying with the day and night time noise standard specified in the CC&A.

3.2.13 Green Belt Development & Mangrove Afforestation

Green belt development program has been implemented by CGPL throughout the project site. For the period 2016-17, in line with EC requirement, 417.89 Ha area has been covered under green belt and thus 1/3rd of the total project area (1242 ha) is covered under green belt. Till March’15, around

10,44,728 saplings have been planted. For any saplings mortality, double no. of saplings are planted by CGPL. Currently CGPL is facing issue of damage of plantation by wildlife (Blue bull and Wild Boar) which are predominant in the area.

CGPL need to sustain the green belt development to ensure compliance with the EC condition and also to maintain heterogeneity of plant species being used and further improve upon the species survival rate.

In addition to green belt development, CGPL has completed mangrove afforestation along with Gujarat Ecological Commission and Kantiyajal Tavar Vikas Samiti (KTVS) at coastal village of Kantiyajal encompassing 1000 ha of land thereby complying with the CRZ clearance requirement.

2 Fodder Distribution and supporting animal husbandry

The “Kanthi” livelihood program is continuing as a mitigating measure for loss of grazing land acquired for project. For fulfilment of the commitment, number of activities have been undertaken including formation of trust, management of gaushala, fodder support for drought, overall reduction of fodder waste through efficient and scientific management. KALP especially fodder distribution is one of the main activities under CSR both in terms of budgetary allocation and expenditure and manpower. In the FY 2016-17, savings in fodder with better methods and daily monitoring has resulted in fodder distribution for additional two months during drought situation in 2016. Efforts made to address fodder cultivation in the region since 2015-16 includes identification of best possible variety and type of fodder which can be cultivated in the region, fodder demonstration in demonstration plots within CGPL boundary, technological innovations for fodder cultivation to address concerns related to wildlife, water, etc, and encourage farmers to cultivate fodder, distribution of slips of identified variety of fodder.

A long-term initiative is required to make the Gaushala completely independent and/or sustainable. Gaushala Trusts has been formed. The trusts need to be strengthened so as to take over the day to day functioning of the Gaushala completely. CGPL and TPCDT staff should work on options such as establishment of a corpus fund for managing the expenses for fodder distribution, better management of livestock at household level, establishment of any commercial activity to enable the gaushala to operate through the use of profits, return of gauchar land or similar land purchased for the purposes, setting of upper limit of number of animals per household, charges based on the sale of milk and maximum number of animals to be levied per household, processing of milk into higher value dairy products such as organic products, cheese, butter, etc.
