3 DESCRIPTION OF THE ENVIRONMENT

This chapter illustrates the description of the existing environmental status of the study area with reference to the prominent environmental attributes. The study area covers the area falling within 2 -km radius from the edge of the proposed project area. Environment facets to be considered in relation to building construction are: (a) Land (b) Air (c) Noise (d) Water (e) Biological (f) Socio-economic This report incorporates the baseline data generated through primary surveys during pre-monsoon season March to May 2016 Methodology The methodology for conducting the baseline environmental survey considered is as per the guidelines given in the Environmental Impact Assessment Guidance Manual for Building, Construction Projects. Baseline information with respect to air quality , noise level, water quality, soil quality in the study area (2.0 km radius from project boundary) were collected by conducting primary sampling / field studies during summer season of year 2016. Baseline status of Land, Biological and Socio-economic environment are also studied. The characteristics of baseline status of study area with respect to the following environmental parameters were studied: Primary Data Collection:

• Ambient air quality • Noise Level • Groundwater and Surface water quality • Soil quality • Land use pattern

Secondary Data Collection:

• Meteorological data from IMD, Mumbai • Flora and Fauna • Socio-economic conditions • Sensitive areas such as forests, sanctuaries, places of historical, archeological and tourist importance. The methodology adopted for the EIA study is outlined below:

• Conducting reconnaissance surveys for knowing the study area; and • Selecting sampling locations for conducting various environment baseline studies. • The sampling locations have been selected on the basis of the following: • Predominant wind directions recorded by the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD); • Existing topography; • Drainage pattern and location of existing surface water bodies like lakes/ponds, rivers, sea and

streams; • Location of villages/towns/sensitive areas; and • Areas, which represent baseline conditions.

Environmental Impact Assessment 3.1 SOIL CHARACTERISTICS AND LAND PROFILE

Sub Surface conditions: Subsurface profile at this site generally consists of fill overlying residual soils underlain by Bedrock. Encountered soil/rock layers are described below; LAYER I: FILL Fill, consisting mostly of clay with boulders were encountered at ground surface in the boreholes. The lower boundary of this layer was encountered at depths of 0.2m to 0.5m below ground. LAYER II: RESIDUAL SOILS Residual soils, consisting mostly of brownish gravelly clay were encountered below fill layer in the boreholes. Based on Standard Penetration Tests (SPT) conducted within this layer, relative density of cohesive soils varied from stiff to very stiff. The lower boundary of this layer was encountered at depths of 0.3m to 1.2m below ground surface. LAYER III: COMPLETELY WEATHERED ROCK Completely weathered bedrock was encountered at depths of 0.3m to 1.2m below ground surface. This layer is formed by the complete in-place disintegration of parent bedrock material, but still partially retains the original rock mass structure. SPT tests conducted in this layer encountered refusals. Core recoveries were typically less than 30%. The lower boundary of this layer was encountered at depths of 3.7m to 8.5m below ground surface. LAYER IV: HARD BASALT BEDROCK Yellowish to gray hard basalt bedrock was encountered at depths of 3.7m to 8.5m below ground surface in the boreholes. The bedrock was highly weathered to sound, generally improving with depth. Core Recoveries in the bedrock layer varied between 31% and 100%, and Rock Quality Designations (RQDs) varied between nil and 100%. Compressive strength of rock core samples ranged between 75 kg/cm2 and 1189 kg/cm2. The boreholes were terminated in this layer at depths of 15.0m to 20.0m below ground surface. Ground Water Level: Groundwater accumulation in boreholes was monitored during and after completion of drilling activities. Groundwater was observed in boreholes at depths of 3.2m to 4.8m below ground surface. Seasonal and annual fluctuations in ground water levels can be expected. It is essential to determine the potentiality of soil in the area and to identify the impacts of urbanization on soil quality. Accordingly, the soil quality assessment of the project site has been carried out. Data Generation

• The sampling locations have been identified with the following objectives: • To determine the baseline soil characteristics of the study area;

70


• To determine the impact of proposed project on soil characteristics; and • To determine the impact on soils more importantly from agricultural productivity point of view. • The physical & chemical properties were determined. The samples were collected by ramming a core-

cutter into the soil up to a depth of 90 cm.

Interpretation of results:

The study area of the proposed site is not much urbanized. However, some construction projects are going on in the vicinity. The road abutting project site is access route to ongoing construction activities in the vicinity. Also, the said plot is vacant land and re-suspended particulate matter may have accounted to the RSPM level recorded at site i.e. 72 µg/m3(max). However, level of all the parameters monitored at site and surrounding were observed within the limits of NAAQS 2009.

With the said project, the site will be developed with the land cover of building footprint, roads and landscape area thereby reducing the PM level from what is observed today.

3.3 NOISE ENVIRONMENT

Noise Environment

The objective of the noise pollution survey around the project site was to identify existing noise sources and to measure background noise levels.

• Study Period And Area

Ambient noise monitoring was carried out during summer season (March-16 to May-16) in 2 km study area.

Selection of monitoring locations

The baseline study for noise levels in the study area has been carried out by selecting a noise monitoring station based on the following criteria.

Environmental setting of the area. Source of the noise. Proximity of the noise generating source.

Sampling Frequency And Technique

Ambient noise monitoring was carried out once within study period. For each hour representation 15 minutes Leq at each location for 24 hours were monitored. The observed Equivalent sound levels (Leq) values in dBA are given for each monitoring location in distinguished form of day time (6 am to 10 pm) and night time (10 pm to 6 am).

Ambient noise monitoring Location

Environmental Impact Assessment 3.4 WATER ENVIRONMENT

Water quality assessment is one of the essential components of EIA study. Such assessment helps in evaluating the existing health of water body and suggesting appropriate mitigation measures to minimize the potential impact from development projects. Water quality of ground and surface water has been studied in order to assess proposed water-uses in construction, drinking, and horticulture purpose. The water quality near the site and other locations within the 2 km impact zone was monitored during March to May 2016 The locations of the monitoring sites are depicted and the result of the monitoring and analysis of ground water and surface water is presented Sampling Frequency and Sampling Techniques

Based on the reconnaissance, the type of water body, its relative importance as resource and its proximity to industry, sampling locations were identified. Sampling procedure involves sample collection using discrete sampler. Linear polyethylene containers leached with 2 M reagent grade nitric acid for 48 hrs at room temperature and rinsing with double distilled water were used. Samples for hydrocarbon estimation were collected in glass bottles of one litre capacity, pre-washed and rinsed with n-hexane. Samples subjected to bacteriological analysis were collected in sterilized bottles and stored in ice-box. Finally all the samples were preserved as per standard preservation technique prior to its transportation to the laboratory. Field parameters viz. pH, dissolved oxygen were analyzed immediately after collection. Selected physico-chemical and bacteriological parameters have been analyzed for assessing the existing water quality status in the study area.

Parameters for analysis of water quality were selected based on the utility of the particular source of water as per MoEF guidance. Hence quality of ground water was compared with IS: 10500: 2012 for drinking purposes. Surface water quality was analyzed for parameters as mentioned in the ‘Methods of Monitoring & Analysis published by CPCB (in Annexure IV of CPCB guidelines)’ and it was rated according to the CPCB Water Quality Criteria against A, B, C, D, & E class of water based on parameters identified in the criteria. The surface water quality is compared with CPCB water quality criteria mentioned

3.5 BIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENT

Currently there are existing Municipal structures, Slum tenants and Amenity building. The ecological

survey was done to ascertain the baseline ecological conditions of the study area (2km radius from the

plot), to assess the potential ecological impacts of the proposed project upon ecology, to develop

adequate and feasible mitigation measures (via inputs to project design and layout, working practices,

or compensate where appropriate) to keep residual ecological impacts with acceptable limits, and also

to develop ecological monitoring parameters. This section of report presents ecological baseline of the

area.

Study area The Study area has been divided into two zones, core and buffer. Core being the project site, and

Environmental Impact Assessment 3.6 SOCIO-ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT

Introduction The study of socio-economic component incorporating various facets related to socio-economic conditions of the project area is an integral part of the EIA. The socio-economic component of the environment with reference to human interests, aesthetic and cultural attributes needs to be studied while delineating Environmental Management Plan (EMP) for achieving desired targets without impairing the quality of life. The initiation, growth and development of plant activities and infrastructure development associated with it are intended to create impact on the socio-economic profile of the communities within the radius of the plant. The impact could be positive or negative depending on the developmental activities adopted and carried out by the company. In order to improve the demographic structure, infrastructure facilities and economic outputs, it is necessary to understand the socio- economic aspects and its trends. Socio-demographic features are very useful for understanding social and economic problems and identifying potential solutions. To understand the socio demographic status and the trends of the communities within 5 km radius, census 2001 & 2011 has been contemplated and necessary data collected and compiled from it. 2 Methodology Adopted for the study For this study both qualitative and quantitative survey methods were administered. Quantitative data were collected using structured questionnaires for household level enumeration by qualified enumerators. The qualitative information was collected through community consultation using group interview, key informant interview, open interview and focus group discussion technique. Focus Group Discussion within the zone of influence and in the project affected areas were conducted. Based on the technical and design standard of the project, study method was applied accordingly. Desk research and primary data collection is the major methodology adopted for the study which involves researching, compiling and analyzing the data. The 5 km radius study map was prepared with the help of administrative Atlas 2011. The 5 km radius area was divided into two zones (0 – 2 km, 2 – 5 km). Finally the sociological aspect including human settlements, demography and caste composition, infrastructure aspects for education, health, drinking water, power supply, and communication aspects was collected, compiled and analysed with the help of census data 2001 & 2011. 3 Baseline Status Baseline information was collected in order to delineate the socio-economic profile of the study area. The process related database thus generated includes:

• Demographic structure • Employment pattern • Infrastructure base in the area • Survey observation and recent available facilities in the surveyed area • Quality of life of the people within study area • Public awareness and their concern about the project

shows comparative information regarding employment pattern in the study area during the year 2001 & 2011. It was apparent from the collected data that percentage of the marginal workers population has been decreased by 2%. The percentage of main workers is increased by 1% as per census 2011. Hence it is evident from the data that employment facilities are not adequate in the study area hence people may have left their native place due to unemployment. The upcoming project may provide opportunities to local people for employment.

• Economic Resource Base:

• Mumbai the city is the financial capital of India with a large commercial and trading base. It plays host to a number of industries, multinational companies and important financial institutions. With a per capita income thrice that of the national average, Mumbai makes huge contribution to the total tax revenues of the country. The city is also an important international sea port and strategic from defense perspective. Unfortunately, the city is also more vulnerable to climate risks due to its flood prone location and the landmass composed largely of reclaimed land. The most vulnerable section is also the slum dwellers and squatter communities in the city that comprise more than half of the total residents.

• The realty market in Mumbai therefore is and will always remain highly lucrative. It attracts a huge amount of foreign investments, has a gigantic consumer market and boasts of high quality workforce. All these factors, coupled with growing urbanisation, are fuelling the demand for property constantly. Moreover, with limited space available in the central city, Mumbai's boundaries are constantly extending into newer areas. All these factors have pushed the boundaries and given a complete new picture to Mumbai's real estate industry.

4 ANTICIPATED ENVIRONMENT IMPACTS AND MITIGATION MEASURES

INTRODUCTION Predict environmental impacts of project

Find ways and means to reduce adverse impacts

Shape project to suit local environment

Present the predictions and options to the decision-makers

This section outlines the environmental aspects and potential adverse environmental impacts relevant to the

construction and operation phase of the project.

IDENTIFICATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECTS Environmental aspects within this project are specific construction actions or items that could cause an impact. The

proposed works have been reviewed, and aspects have been identified.

4.1 LAND ENVIRONMENT

• There shall be vegetation clearance for shrubs. Trees which are not affecting the building line shall be

retained as it is.

• Seasonal and annual fluctuations in ground water levels can be expected.

• Most of the land cover of the project site is covered by paved land as most of the site is covered by slums.

• Contamination of soil due to accidental oil spillage and fuel is expected. Construction of roads with

adequate loading and unloading capacity has been suggested prior to any construction activity to avoid any

accidental spillage on soil.

• There will be labor camps provided with waste disposal treatment plant therefore the contamination due to

sanitary practices in labor camps will be minimized.

• During construction phase there will be runoff generated through various construction activities. The

temporary drainage system around the possible areas will be proposed.

106

Environmental Impact Assessment Anticipated Impacts & Mitigation measures during operation phase

• The onsite segregation of waste into COLOR bins will reduce the exposure of solid waste to the

environment directly, which will reduce the contamination of soil, leaching of soil and ultimately the

contamination of aquifers.

4.2 AIR ENVIRONMENT

Impact on Ambient Air Environment The establishment of an emissions inventory forms the basis for the impact assessment. The emissions inventory comprises the identification of sources of emission, and the quantification of each source’s contribution to ambient air pollution concentrations. An emission factor is a representative value that attempts to relate the quantity of a pollutant released to the atmosphere with an activity associated with the release of that pollutant. Particulate matter is the main pollutant of concern from demolition and construction activity. During operation phase NOx, SO2, CO and PM (PM10 & PM2.5) are pollutant of concern. Dispersion models compute ambient concentrations as a function of source configurations, emission strengths and meteorological characteristics, thus providing a useful tool to ascertain the spatial and temporal patterns in ground level concentrations (GLCs) arising from the emissions of various sources. Gaussian plume models are best used for near-field applications where the steady-state meteorology assumption is most likely to apply. The AERMOD model was used in this study. Impact Due To Construction Activity Proposed source of air pollution during construction phase is loading and unloading of construction material, emission due to construction vehicle movement, excavation, storage of excavated material etc. Details of emission from each source of emission during construction phase are as shown in Table below.

Environmental Impact Assessment Simulation results Atmospheric dispersion models compute ambient concentrations as a function of source configurations, emission strengths and meteorological characteristics, thus providing a useful tool to ascertain the spatial and temporal patterns in the ground level concentrations (GLCs) arising from the emissions of various sources. Increasing reliance has been placed on concentration estimates from models as the primary basis for environmental and health impact assessments, risk assessments and emission control requirements. Dispersion modeling was undertaken to determine highest daily and study period incremental GLCs for each pollutant. These averaging periods were selected to facilitate the comparison of simulated pollutant concentrations with relevant air quality standards. It should be noted that the GLC iso pleths depicted present interpolated values from the concentrations simulated by AERMOD for each of the receptor grid points specified. Prediction of incremental concentration of pollutant for project is done using dispersion modeling. Software used for the current study is AERMOD VIEW. AERMET as a pre-processor was used to processes meteorological data and estimates the necessary boundary layer parameters for dispersion calculations. Hourly-surface observations data (referred from nearest IMD- Santacruz) were used as input for AERMET. Output file obtained from AERMET is a file of hourly boundary layer parameter estimates, and a file of multiple-level observations of wind speed and direction, temperature, and standard deviation of the fluctuating components of the wind. GLCs are obtained in µg/m3 for pollutants. Output of modeling gives concentration at uniform Cartesian receptors and discrete Cartesian receptors to get the resultant concentration with reference to baseline data Results of Modeling Dispersion modeling has been carried out for particulate matter for the different activities during construction phase. Concentrations of the same at monitoring locations are given

Interpretation The modelling results predict the PM concentration of 171.62 µg/m3 at project site. Nearest residential buildings from the proposed project is at 200 m, the predicted concentration reaching the nearest resident is 86.15 µg/m3.

However the predicted values are without any mitigation, considering the minimum reduction of 75% due to

110

Environmental Impact Assessment implementation program of dust suppression at site the value at site will be 42.90 µg/m3 and at nearest residential area will be 21.53 µg/m3 . Impact of proposed construction on the surrounding area will be negligible. Conclusion Thus Impact of construction activity on surrounding will be negligible.

Impact of project on the surrounding area The major sources of noise from the proposed project which affects the surrounding is

a. Construction phase: Construction equipment noise and construction vehicular traffic noise

b. Operation phase: Vehicular traffic from the project and operation of DG set (in case of power failure).

Noise during construction phase The major source of noise during this phase is construction equipment noise and noise due to transport of construction material (vehicular noise). List of the equipment used during construction phase along with its noise levels are as mentioned below

• Demolition phase • Site preparation

Noise levels were predicted using Federal Highway Administration’s Construction Noise model software Version 1.1 for equipment’s used during this phase. Shielding noise reduction was calculated using below mentioned formulae. Mitigation measures Following mitigation measures are proposed to reduce the impact of construction noise. Some of the general methods that will be practice to reduce the noise level at source are as mentioned below:

1. Unnecessary revving of engines and switch off equipment’s when not in use will be practiced.

2. Internal haulage route will be maintained and steep gradients will be avoided. 3. Rubber liner shall be used where ever feasible like in chutes and dumpers to reduce noise

impact. 4. Minimum drop height of the material will be maintained. 5. There shall be sequential start of plants machineries and vehicles rather than all together. 6. Noise from vibratory machinery can be reduce by attention to proper balancing, frictional

noise from the cutting action of tools and saws shall be reduced by keeping tools sharp, frictional noise in conveyors, rollers, trolley and other machines shall be reduce by proper lubrication.

4.4 WATER ENVIRONMENT

Anticipated Impacts and Mitigation during construction phase • Tanker water shall be used for construction activity.

• Sanitary practices will generate waste water from mobile toilets on the site. Generated

waste water shall be treated in mobile STP.

120


• There are possibilities of seepage of waste water. This seepage will be diverted to the

temporary storm water drain. Temporary storm water drains shall be provided with

sedimentation tank.

Anticipated Impacts and Mitigation measures during operation phase • Extraction of ground water

There shall be no extraction of ground water. The competent authority will provide the fresh

water for the project. Other water requirement will be fulfilled by the recycled water. During

rainy season rain water shall reduce the load on competent authority.

• Discharge of waste water into nearby areas.

Waste water will be treated in STPs and flushing, landscaping water requirement will be

fulfilled by recycled water. Excess treated water (non monsoon season) will be connected to

existing external sewer line.

Three STPs are proposed for different components.

Construction Phase Water Requirement During construction phase water requirement will be met through tanker water.

4.5 SOCIO ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT

Awareness and opinion of Respondent:

Public opinion is the aggregate of individual attitudes or beliefs. It is very important to take opinion of the villagers about the project. The awareness will not only promote community participation but also enable them to understand the importance of the project and encourage them to express their view. To know the awareness and opinion of the villagers about the project, group discussion, meeting with school teachers/village leaders was taken in the study area. Local people expect that project proponent should take care of people’s livelihood Most of the villagers were aware about the project site. There was complete awareness of the

proposed project activity amongst all respondents. People asked better health and safety should be maintained during construction.

3.8 Social Impacts of the project

3.8.1. Potential Impacts Potential impacts on community services, both positive and negative, resulting from aspects associated with the proposed expansion of residential project are discussed below and the key aspects that benefit community services are opportunities for local employment and business development are given below. Aspects that have the potential for negative impacts include access to accommodation, increased anti-social behavior, and increased competition for access to community services and traffic congestion.

3.8.2. Impacts (Benefits) Tax, royalties and rates has been paid to State and local governments by the contractors. The duration of the construction activity and the size of the construction workforce for the project will mean substantial opportunity for economic development in the city as demand for goods and services increases with population. Key areas identified to benefit most from this influx of construction workers include the hospitality industry, retail, recreation and small businesses willing to meet the needs of this demographic.

3.8.3. Impacts (Negative) Previous industrial projects in the area have imposed periods of increased stress on the host community including increased cost of living, housing shortages and reduced access to community services such as health, recreation, education and child care. The main cause of negative social impacts from the proposed development is expected to be the increased construction workforce that will be sustained over the construction period. Construction activities by other proponents may also occur during this period.

3.8.4. Physical Presence – Antisocial Behavior

129

Environmental Impact Assessment An increase in the transient construction population (due to the use of fly in-fly out) could generate antisocial behavior and drug and alcohol abuse in the study area, which will place additional pressure on the police and health services of the town. Although not identified as a specific issue in the stakeholder consultation sessions, antisocial behavior contributes to a number of the issues that were raised in the sessions including: public safety concerns, and increased demand for service sector employees, health infrastructure, emergency services infrastructure and community services infrastructure.

3.8.5. Physical Presence – Access to Community Services The proposed construction workforce is expected to be almost entirely fly in-fly out; however, the operational workforce is likely to be a combination of residential and fly in-fly out. The physical presence and the proposed workforce’s physical interaction with the nearby community has the potential to both positively and negatively affect the social profile and community services of the town.

3.8.6. Physical Presence – Traffic Congestion Increased traffic movements (heavy and light vehicle traffic) have the potential to cause congestion and delays throughout the town. The potential impacts of traffic on the community will be limited due to the location of the proposed project development. It is anticipated that only local workers commuting from their accommodation to the proposed project site will be required to enter the residential or commercial areas of the city during construction. The majority of construction workers will reside in the existing construction camps and shall be transported to the site by bus.

3.8.7. Management Measures The proposed avoidance, mitigation, monitoring and contingency measures applicable to the management of impacts on community services arising from the construction and operation of the proposed project development are summarized

Social Impacts

• The study reveals that the proposed location for the project does not involve any kind of replacement of communities.

• The proposed project site is located in an urbanized zone (U- Zone) with a very good connectivity by road and by local trains. Mono Rail station is at a distance of 1.0 kms which is ongoing project and shall be in operation in next 3 to 4 years

• Rental scheme has been introduced by MMRDA for the people who are not able to afford the outright purchase of home on ownership basis.

• Navi Mumbai has been come with new commercial and IT park projects which is generating immense employment as on today and in coming years

• Due to the proposed project activity, influx of population may increase during the construction phase. This may lead to strain on infrastructure facilities in the area as well as increase in population at local level. However, this impact is only for the short duration and temporary in nature. This will help in reducing the population density of Main City to some extent.

• During the construction phase, labors shall be employed and in operation phase gardeners, mechanics ,security guards and home maid will be employed from near by areas

• No other direct or indirect impacts were anticipated as there was no visible or invisible source of impacts

Conclusions

134


• Recreation places like central park (Play areas) is in close proximity to the project site. The project site is having very good connectivity from both Kharghar (Residential and commercial hub) and Taloja (Industrial hub) by Road network and by ongoing mono rail network. one of the Mono Rail station is at a distance of 1.0 kms which is ongoing project and shall be in operation in next 3 to 4 years. Airport at Navi Mumbai is a big upcoming development proposed in the area. This is ultimately going to generate temporary and permanent based employment. Due to this set up of airport there has to be development of necessary infrastructure.

• Educational institutions like TATA, Sanjeevani School are there near to the project site which shall help in providing job opportunities to teaching professional's.

• Industrial projects and commercial hubs are near to the site. Lot of job opportunities are there nearby to the project site as small scale industries and laboratories in Taloja and Kharghar. There are hospitals, car service facility, religious places available near the project site and also there are many restaurants in 2 Km distance.

Recommendations

• A public awareness campaign to provide information about the project to the people living in the surrounding area and to the local government agencies.

• Sanitary facilities for worker camp and the workers living nearby should be properly maintained. Direct and indirect impacts due to discharge of untreated sewage may result into disease such as typhoid, cholera, jaundice, gastrointestinal infection.

• Job/ employment preference should be given to the local people including male and female during construction, operation and maintenance of the proposed project on the basis of their education and experience.

• Ensure purchase of some essential commodities from the local shops rather than collecting from other area.

4.6 BIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENT

• The buffer zone od project site is out of any Biologically Eco sensitive area. • As per observations, there are around 36 No’s of tree species, 21 No’s of avian species, 14

No’s of herpetological species, 15 No’s of insect species; in the buffer zone. • The present ecological conditions are favorable for flora and fauna present over there. After

completion of project around 519 No’s trees with endemic nature shall enhance the favorable conditions to the environment.

6 ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN

6.1 IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE OF MITIGATION MEASURES

The mitigation measures suggested in the Chapter-4 should be implemented so as to reduce the

impact on environment due to the construction and operations of the proposed project. In order to

facilitate easy implementation, mitigation measures are phased as per the priority

implementation. The priority of the implementation schedule is given in Table 6.1

6.2 ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAMME

The Post Project Monitoring to be carried out at the project is discussed below:

Monitoring and Reporting Procedure

Regular monitoring of important and crucial environmental parameters is of immense

importance to assess the status of environment during operational phase. With the knowledge of

baseline conditions, the monitoring program can serve as an indicator for any deterioration in

environmental conditions due to operational phase and suitable mitigation steps could be taken in

time to safeguard the environment. Monitoring is as important as that of control of pollution

since the efficiency of control measures can only be determined by monitoring. The following

routine monitoring program will be implemented under the post project monitoring. The

proposed monitoring program is given below:

Air Pollution and Meteorological Aspects

Ambient air quality shall be monitored. The ambient air quality shall be monitored once in three

months in the work zone, at the DG set location and surroundings through a reputed

environmental laboratory recognized by MoEF. Similarly, the monitoring shall be carried out

once in three months and the results shall be reported to pollution control authorities.

Wastewater Quality The sewage emanating from the complex shall be monitored once in a month for physico-

chemical characteristics.

Noise Levels Noise levels near the DG sets shall be monitored once in three months.

Monitoring Equipment and Consumables A well-equipped laboratory with consumable items shall be provided for monitoring of

environmental parameters. Alternatively, monitoring can be outsourced to a recognized

laboratory.

161

The following environmental management procedures apply to the environmental issues relevant

to the site. The procedures aim to provide criteria and indicators to measure the environmental

performance, as well as mitigation controls to reduce potential impacts.

The EMP will be planned for construction and operating stages of the project and includes the

following elements:

• Air pollution control and management

• Water pollution control and management

• Noise pollution control and management

• Storm water management

• Rain water harvesting

• solid waste management

• Plantation, landscaping and land management

• Management of Social Issues

• Occupational, safety and health issues

• Energy conservation

7 Additional Studies

7.1 DISASTER MANAGEMENT PLAN AND RISK ASSESSMENT

Disaster Management Plan

Disaster management is defined as the discipline of avoiding and dealing with natural risks. The

whole process involves a preparation plan for the impending disaster, action in response to a

disaster, and support and strength to rebuild a community after the occurrence of a disaster.

Disaster management is very important for any building. It makes the occupant aware of the

various disasters possible in a building, prevention & procedures, training in disaster

management, and after-disaster procedures for building objects.

In general, disaster management is a continuous process that aims to manage and minimize

hazards. Under disaster response, there are a variety of actions to take like evacuation

quarantine, mass decontamination, and the like. Disaster management has its own advantages.

Some of these are:

• Reduces the effects of a disaster's aftermath

• Gives the chance to survive, no matter what kind of a disaster occurs and irrespective of

when it occurs

• Gives you peace of mind from the uncertainties of close encounters to unexpected

and dangerous natural events

• Minimize the effects of the accident on people and property

• Initiate the rescue and medical treatment of casualties;

• Bring the incident under control

• Preserve relevant records and equipment for the subsequent enquiry into the cause and

circumstances of the emergency

• Investigate and take steps to prevent recurrence of similar incidents

• Inform and collaborate with statutory local and state authorities

The detailed study has been enclosed in DMP manual which has been attached as annexure.

8 Project Benefits

• Industrial projects and commercial hubs are near to the site. Lot of job opportunities are there nearby to the project site as small scale industries and laboratories in Taloja and Kharghar. There are hospitals, car service facility, religious places available near the project site and also there are many restaurants in 2 Km distance.

• Recreation places like central park (Play areas) is in close proximity to the project site. The project site is having very good connectivity from both Kharghar (Residential and commercial hub) and Taloja (Industrial hub) by Road network and by ongoing mono rail network. one of the Mono Rail station is at a distance of 1.0 kms which is ongoing project and shall be in operation in next 3 to 4 years. Airport at Navi Mumbai is a big upcoming development proposed in the area. This is ultimately going to generate temporary and permanent based employment. Due to this set up of airport there has to be development of necessary infrastructure.

• Educational institutions like TATA, Sanjeevani School are there near to the project site which shall help in providing job opportunities to teaching professional's.
