EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
1.0 PROJECT DESCRIPTION
1.1 INTRODUCTION
M/S Siddheshwari Paper Udyog Ltd., established in year 1992 is registered under the
Companies Act, 1956 for manufacturing of Kraft Paper by its Promoter Sh. Jitender
Kumar, a noted industrialist with vast experience to run the paper mills since last 30
years. As on day, the unit is manufacturing 65 TPD of quality kraft paper using agro-
wastes like bagasse and wheat straw and also Indian waste paper. Both kinds of raw
materials are sourced from nearby area. In 2011 the mill established Common Captive
Power Plant of 6 MW Capacity & Chemical Recovery Plant of 120 TPD Black Liquor solids.
1.2 TYPE OF PROJECT
M/s. Siddheshwari Papers Udyog Limited was established in 1992. It has an existing
Kraft Paper manufacturing plant of 65 TPD at 7th K.M. stone, Moradabad Road,
Kashipur, District Udham Singh Nagar, Uttarakhand. The company is now proposing for
expansion in production of Kraft Paper from 65 TPD to 115 TPD. The company is also
proposing to optionally use coal instead of rice husk for 6 MW Captive Power Generation
Plant.
As per the EIA Notification the project falls in Category “A” Project activity S. No.-5 (i)-
(3) (Pulp manufacturing and Pulp & Paper manufacturing industry) further the project
site lies within 10 km radius of interstate boundary (Uttarakhand-Uttar Pradesh) hence
it falls under Category A and requires Environmental Clearance from MoEF, New Delhi
The project was considered before the Expert Appraisal Committee (Industry) for its
First technical presentation (ToR) on 4th April, 2013. The ToR reconsideration
presentation was held on 18th Nov, 2013. The EAC has suggested Terms of References
(ToR’s) for preparation of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Report and
Environmental Management Plan (EMP) vide its F. No. J-11011/407/2012-1A-II (I)
letter dated 31st March, 2014.
1.3 NEED FOR THE PROJECT
Paper and paper board has become an essential requirement of our life. The current
global paper and paper board demand is 402 million MT per annum. The paper demand
has doubled in 20 years from 242.79 million MT in 1990 to 402 million MT in 2011.

2.0 DESCRIPTION OF THE ENVIRONMENT
2.1 PRESENTATION OF RESULTS (AIR, NOISE, WATER & SOIL)
Baseline study of the study area was conducted during Summer Season, 2013 and
Additional one Month (December, 2013) Monitoring was also conducted.
The concentration for all the 8 AAQM stations for PM10 & PM2.5 ranges between 65.8 to
96.0 µg/m3 and 27.5 to 45.0 µg/m3 respectively during summer season, 2013. SO2
ranges between 7.5 to 15.0 µg/m3 and NO2 ranges between 18.4 to 28.0 µg/m3.
During winter season, 2013, PM10 & PM2.5 for all the 8 AAQM stations ranged between
67.3 to 98.2 µg/m3 and 29.5 to 49.3 µg/m3, respectively. SO2 and NO2 were in the
range of 8.2 to 16.3 µg/m3 and 19.5 to 30.5 µg/m3, respectively.
Ambient noise levels were measured at 8 locations around the project site. During the
baseline study it was seen that in day time noise level varies from 51.83 to 58.83Leq. dB
(A) in day time and in night time 42.35 to 48.96 Leq. dB (A).

limits.
The analysis results for soil shows that soil is slightly alkaline in nature as pH value
ranges from 6.69-7.38 & is silty loam in texture. The concentration of Nitrogen has been
found to be in good amount in the soil samples.

Scheduled Caste population of the study area (10 km) is 16.93% and Scheduled Tribe is
0.14%.
Percentage of literacy is 74.04% and that of workers those actually engaged in
occupation is 31.96%. Total no. of household in the area is 87379.
3.0 ANTICIPATED ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS AND MITIGATION MEASURES
� Impact on Air Environment - The key air emissions from the plant activities
(loading/unloading, transportation and storage of coal and other raw materials) are
Particulate Matter, Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx) and Sulphur dioxide (SO2). Gaseous
emissions are being/will be generated from transportation of vehicles. Use of
proper mitigation measures are being/will be taken like water sprinkling during
material transfer activities & development of green belt along the road sides to
control fugitive emissions.

� Impact on Water Environment - There is/will be minimal discharge of liquid
effluent from the plant site. All the effluent will be treated in the Effluent
Treatment Plant and the treated effluent after pressure sand filter will be utilized
partially in pulp mill, green belt development and dust suppression. Therefore, no
significant impact on surface water bodies is anticipated due to plant operations.
� Impact of Noise - During construction phase, noise will be generated from vehicle
movement for transfer of construction materials, operation of heavy equipments
and machinery like vibrators, cranes, welding machines etc. However, the impact
will be of short term duration. The plantation and the green belt around the plant
boundary also mitigate noise in the surrounding areas.
� Impact on Land Environment – No adverse impact on the surrounding land is
anticipated. It will be ensured that there would not be any effluent discharge from
the plant during operation and management will adopt and practice best
measures to prevent release of pollutants outside the plant premises.

7.0 ENVIRONMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN
7.1 AIR QUALITY MANAGEMENT
� ESP has been provided to reduce the PM level from the boiler within permissible
limits.
� Control of fugitive dust emissions during material handling by back water
sprinkling.
� Green belt around the periphery and within premises has been developed.
� Ambient air quality and stack emissions are regularly monitored and effective
controls exercised, so as to keep the emission within the statutory limits and same
will be continued.
7.2 WATER QUALITY MANAGEMENT
The waste water is generated from wet washing of raw material, pulp washing process
and paper making process along with boiler & chemical recovery operations.
� The wastewater from wet washing section shall be treated in the ETP, as such
after mixing in common mill stream. During generation of wastewater, approx.
25% is recirculated back into its own process and remaining is discharged to ETP.
� During pulp washing process, the generated black liquor is sent to the chemical
recovery section where it is evaporated and fired in F.B.R. The evaporated water -
Condensate & Foul Condensate - is recirculated back to boiler & pulp washing,
respectively. The chemical recovery operation is virtually a zero-discharge
scheme, wherein all water generation is either recirculated back to the process or
evaporated through its chimney.
� The wastewater generation in paper making is partially recycled to pulp mill for
pulp dilution at different stages, as it contains fiber, fines & chemicals and
balanced is sent to ETP for further treatment. The wastewater from pump sealing
& hydraulics is used in self reciculation.
� The wastewater from boiler section is generated in the form of cooling tower
bleed or from steam traps. Both are sent for treatment in ETP.
7.3 NOISE MANAGEMENT
� Time to time oiling and servicing of machineries is being/will be done

� Acoustic enclosure for Turbine & D.G. sets are/would be provided.
� The green belt development helps in absorbing noise.
� Earmuffs provided to workers while running the equipments of the plant.
� Periodic monitoring is being/will be carried out
7.4 SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT
� Primary ETP sludge is reutilized back into paper making.
� The secondary clarifier and Tertiary treatment sludge is collected in either sludge
beds or dewatered through decanter and utilized within the plant.
� The ash from the boilers is being/will be utilized for filling low lying area within
the campus and also utilized by nearby farmers in their fields.
� If permission of coal use will be granted, optionally, in place of rice husk, the fly
ash will be sent to the cement manufacturing units for which MoU will be signed
prior to use of coal.
7.5 GREENBELT DEVELOPMENT AND PLANTATION PROGRAM
� The Green belt development has already been developed in 23% are all around
the project site which will help in to attenuate the pollution level. More green belt
will be developed during expansion to make it ~33% of total area.
� Green belt is developed as per Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) guidelines.
� Wider green belt is provided along the boundary facing the State Highway.
� Green belt development in and around the project site helps to attenuate the
pollution level of air and noise.
7.6 SOCIO-ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT
Better education facilities, proper health care, road infrastructure and drinking water
facilities are basic social amenities for better living standard of any human being. SPL
has conducted and provided such facilities to the nearby villagers and will further
improve the facilities in the area, which will help in uplifting the living standards of local
communities.
