CHAPTER-0: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

0.1 Introduction

National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has taken-up project preparation of certain selected stretches under NHDP Phase-V, BOT programme, covering km 1560, out of which km 315 of NH-79A,79 & 76 from Kisangarh (km 0.00 Towards Delhi) to Udaipur (km 214.00) is a part of this prestigious programme. The project would envisage widening of existing four- lane highway into six lanes with additional features such as providing of additional service roads, underpasses, flyovers and bridges so as to enhance operational efficiency and safety. The proposed six lane Udaipur bypass connecting NH -76 near Debari to NH 8 near Kaya is part of the project.

0.2 Project Description

The project road is widening of existing four- lane highway into six lanes of Kisangarh-Udaipur Section of NH-79A,79 &76 in the State of Rajasthan (km 0.00 in Kisangarh towards Delhi to km 214.00) including Udaipur Bypass. It is a 4-lane road having an average formation width of 14.0 m and carriageway width of 7.0 m with 1.50m wide paved and 1.0 m earthen shoulders on either side.The average height of embankment varies from 1.0 m to 4.0 m. The existing ROW generally varies from 45.0 m to 70.0 m.

The project road traverses through major settlement stretches such as Nasirabad, Gulabpura, Bhilwara, Chittorgarh, Mangalwara and finally at Udaipur. Nasirabad settlements start from 36+000 and ends at km 46+000 of NH-79 A. Gulabpara settlements starts from km 68+000 and ends at 71+000 of NH 79, Bhilwara by-pass starts at km 148+000 and ends at km 169+000, Chittorgarh By-pass starts at km 190+000 and meets at 4-lane Road at km 213+000. This is the end of Chittorgarh by-pass and after that starting chainage of the project road is in decreasing order towards Udaipur. Mangalwara starts at km 170+000 and ends at 173+000. At Mangalwara realignment (2 km) has been provided to avoid displacement of structures. Within the Udaipur City, the project road is surrounded by settlements and shops and there is no scope for six laning through Uadipur city. Therefore, bypass has been provided at the Udaipur. The proposed six lane Udaipur bypass will start at km 117.750 near Debari on NH 76 and end at km 286.800 near Kaya on NH 8. The total length of the proposed bypass is 24 km.

3 1 and in winters, it is quite cool. Both in summers as well as in winters, there is a wide difference in the day and night temperature. Regarding the average temperature in summers (from April to June), the maximum temp is around 45°C & the winter’s season is quite chilly. The climatic condition is best during the period of October to March & ideal time to visit.

The climate of the Udaipur district is moderate without significant seasonal variations. January is the coldest month while May and June are the hottest months. The mean temperature is 22°C. Average rainfall at the district headquarter is 664 mm.

0.3.4 Soil and Geology

The soil in the project area is developed under the arid and humid climate over the bed rocks of complex nature, pre-dominantly under the process of laterization. The soil resulting from the disintegration of various rocks is of a sandy nature, which results from Schists and quartzite’s, contains large portion of sand and it is found in most of the project area. In most of the areas it is very shallow, dry and poor quality. Soil resulting from granite and gneiss contains a certain amount of clay and is comparatively good and is found in most of Kishangarh ranges.

The tract is mostly occupied by yellowish brown, sandy loam to sandy clay loam. Soil texture is weak in structure and is permeable. The pH of soil along the project road and its influence area varies in between 7.5 to 8.4.

The main rocks reported in the project area are the schists, gneisses, migmatites, quartzite’s and conglomerates of pre- Delhi formation. These rocks are mostly covered by a mantle of sand and alluvium of recent to sub-recent age. The banded gneisses complex occurs in most of the areas and is made up of alternates’ band of layers of granite and biotite geniss or simple granite.

0.3.5 Land Use Pattern

The land use pattern of project corridor, principally categories as urban/commercial, Industrial, rural, agricultural and liner plantation (declared as protected forest). The predominant species along the road are babool and lucinia. Agriculture is he main activity in the project area & the principal cereal crops grown in the area are wheat, barley, millets, maize, jowar etc. & major pulses are gram, pea and tur.

0.3.6 Water Resources & Its Quality

The water quality of the project area is normally good. Water quality has been monitored along the project road and result of analysis shows that all the parameters are with in the permissible limit as per IS 10500.

0.3.7 Ambient Air Quality

Ambient air quality monitoring were carried for PM2.5, PM10, SO2, NOx and CO along the project road. National air quality standards for rural, residential area and industrial area are met for monitored parameters (PM2.5, PM10, SO2, NOx and CO) for all AAQM locations.

0.3.8 Noise Quality

Sound Pressure Level (SPL) measurements were undertaken along the project road, with an interval of about 5 seconds over a period of 10 minutes per hour for 24 hr. Day and night-time Leq have been calculated from hourly Leq values and compared with the stipulated standards. Measured Leq noise levels are most of the time, within the limit stipulated for residential area and commercial area at all the locations.

3 1 0.3.9 Forest and Roadside Trees

At places project road is passing through reserve and protected forest area. In the project road, 60.7790 ha forest land will be diverted for non forestry use for six laning including. The project road consists multiple rows of eucalyptus plantation at some stretches & rest is covered with kikar, Neem & Babool & Babool bushes (most are less than 30 cm) within the ROW. Approximately 14572 trees may be affected during widening of the road.

0.3.10 Fauna

The common wild animals which are reported in the project area are the Neelgai (Boselaphus tragocamelus), pig (Sus scrofa), jackal (Conis aureus), fox (Vulpes bengalensis), hare (Lepus ruficandatus), monkey (Macaca mulatta), wild cat (Felis bengalensis) and wild rabbits, but the project road does not support wildlife except monkeys hence the loss of wildlife due to collision with vehicles is only a remote possibility.

0.3.11 Socio-Economic Environment

Amenities: There are number of amenities and utility services located along the highway such as schools, dhabas, clinics, restaurants, repair and spare shops, resting spaces, parking lots, PCOs, electric transformers, OFC, etc.

Industries: The project road passes through three industrial area viz. Bhilwara Silora & Mandapam, Around 31 industries are observed along the project corridor in which most are medium and small scale industries.

0.4 Anticipated Environmental Impacts And Mitigation Measures

0.4.1 Topography

The topography of the project area will not have any significant adverse impact due to widening of the project road. However, temporary changes in topography in the vicinity of the project site may be possible because of project related activities. The geology pattern will be not impacted due to the project activities.

The project includes proposed six lane Udaipur bypass, therefore, impact on the physiography of the area would be significant during construction phase. The design of bypass will consider the maintenance of existing drainage conditions through the providing of cross-drainage structures like culverts and bridges. Design of the cross drainage structures will follow IRC Guidelines (IRC, 1995).

0.4.2 Potential Environmental Impacts on Soil

Design and Construction Phase

a. Loss of Productive Soil

During construction of the proposed project road including Udaipur bypass, some loss of productive soil is anticipated because part of land is agricultural land along the road. The productivity of crops in the region will not be affected by the proposed Udaipur bypass.

Efforts will be made to minimize acquisition of productive lands by finalizing alignment. The location of construction camp (if any) and other construction sites shall not be located on productive agricultural land. The topsoil from all areas to be permanently covered shall be stripped to a specified depth of 150 mm and stored in stockpiles. The stored topsoil will be utilized for the redevelopment of borrow areas, top dressing of the road embankments, fill slopes and filling up of tree pits proposed as part of compensatory plantation.

3 1 Temporary loss of productive soil is likely if haul roads for the transport of borrow materials, traffic detours during construction, etc. are routed through agricultural lands.

b. Soil Erosion

During the construction of the proposed project road including Udaipur bypass, about 14572 trees, shrubs and grasses will need to be cleared along the proposed bypass, which may pose some soil erosion problem during rains. Suitable mitigation measures will need to be implemented to prevent the soil erosion problem.

Cutting of hills and excavations of earth from borrow areas may also lead to soil erosion problem in proposed Udaipur Bypass.

c. Contamination of Soil

During construction of the proposed project road including Udaipur bypass, the contamination of the soil will be negligible. Further, the contractor shall initiate measures to minimize waste generation from all construction activities. At construction sites, the vehicles and equipments will be maintained properly and refueled only at fueling areas, without any spillages.

d. Compaction of Soil

During construction phase, soil in the productive lands beyond the RoW may be compacted by the movement of construction vehicles, machinery and equipment.

Mitigation Measures

During the construction phase, mitigation measures to prevent the soil erosion are:

• Re-plantation of trees,

• Good engineering & construction practices

• Turfing on embankment

• Providing mild slopes, not flat nor steep slope,

These steps will efficiently mitigate the potential soil erosion problem and by the time the proposed bypass starts operating, the ecosystems will restore itself. Soil erosion should visually check on slops and high embankment areas along the road during construction phase. In case soil erosion is found along the proposed Udaipur bypass, suitable measures should be taken to control the soil erosion.

To avoid the soil contamination, at the wash down and re-fueling areas, “oil interceptors” shall be provided. Unusable debris shall be dumped in nearest landfill sites.

To prevent any compaction of soil in the adjoining productive lands beyond the RoW of proposed ROW, the movement of construction vehicles, machinery and equipment will be restricted to the corridor.

Borrow Area and Quarries

For filling and embankment during construction phase, borrow pits need to be excavated along the proposed project road including Udaipur bypass. For construction of the bypass, aggregate will be procured from nearest quarry approved by Rajasthan State Pollution Control Board.

3 1 Mitigation Measures

To mitigate the adverse impact during excavation of borrow pits for proposed bypass, following mitigation measures should be taken:

• Indian Road Congress (IRC):10-1961 guideline should be followed for excavation of earth from borrow areas.

• Borrow areas should be excavated as per the intended end use by the owner.

The following criteria should be used for selection of borrow pits and amount that can be borrowed. They are as follows:

� Borrow areas should not be located on cultivable lands. However, if it becomes necessary to borrow earth from temporarily acquired cultivated lands, their depth should not exceed 45 cm. The topsoil to a depth of 15 cm shall be stripped and set aside. Thereafter, soil may be dug out to a further depth not exceeding 30 cm and used in forming the embankment.

� Borrow pit shall be selected from wasteland at least 500 m away from the road;

� Priority should be given to the borrowing from humps above the general ground level within the road land;

� Priority should be given to the borrowing by excavating/enlarging existing tanks;

� Borrowing should be from land acquired temporarily and located at least 500m away from the road;

� Borrowing should be from mounds resulting from the digging of well and lowering of agricultural fields in vicinity of the road;

� In case of settlements, borrow pit shall not be selected within a distance 800 m from towns or villages. If unavoidable, earth excavation shall not exceed 30 cm in depth.

� The haulage distance from site should not be too far.

Aggregate required for the proposed bypass construction should be procured from quarries approved by Rajasthan State Pollution Control Board.

Operation Phase

No impact is anticipated on soil during the operation phase and therefore, no mitigation measure is required. However, soil erosion should be visually checked on slops and high embankment areas along the road during operation phase. In case soil erosion is found, suitable measures should be taken to control the soil erosion.

0.4.3 Impact on Water Environment

Design and Construction Phase

Ground Water Resource

During design and construction phases, drainage pattern and run off flow conditions along the proposed project road including Udaipur bypass will not be significantly affected. Water requirement for the proposed bypass will be temporary and meet through existing surface/ground water sources available place to place along the road. Therefore, no impact is anticipated on the water resources of the area.

3 1 Use of Local Water Supply

No public water source/supply will be used for construction of proposed project road including Udaipur bypass. Therefore, no impact is anticipated on local water supply during construction and operation phase.

Water Quality Degradation

The proposed project road including Udaipur bypass construction activities may temporarily deteriorate surface water quality during rains in terms of turbidity along the road. However, this impact will be observed only up to first few rains. Therefore, no significant impact is anticipated on water quality due to construction of the project road including Udaipur bypass.

Construction of the proposed project road including Udaipur bypass is expected to complete within the 2 years by deployment of local labours. Few construction camps are anticipated along the road. These should be located away from water bodies and basic sanitary facilities should be provided to the labour camps.

Mitigation Measures for Water Environment

Following mitigation measures are suggested to mitigate any adverse impacts during design and construction phases:

• Provision should be made for proper drainage along the proposed project road including Udaipur bypass.

• Construction camps, if any, should be properly located to avoid contamination of surface water bodies by the generation waste and waste water.

• Good engineering practices to be followed to avoid the clogging of water channels along the project road including proposed Udaipur bypass.

• Water to be used for construction should have separate source.

Operation Phase

During operation phase, water quality, drainage pattern and run off flow conditions along the proposed Udaipur bypass will not be significantly affected.

0.4.4 Impact on Ambient Air Quality

Design and Construction Phase

During construction phase of the project road including proposed Udaipur bypass, there will be two main sources of air emissions i.e. mobile sources and fixed sources. Mobile sources are mostly vehicles involve in construction activities while emissions from fixed sources include diesel generator sets, construction equipment (e.g. compressors) and excavation/grading activities those produce dust emissions.

Certain amount of dust and gaseous emissions will be generated during the construction phase from excavation machine and road construction machines. Pollutants of primary concern include Particulate Matter (PM2.5) and Respirable Suspended Particulate Matter (PM10). However, suspended dust particles may be coarse and will be settled within a short distance of construction area. Therefore, impact will be temporary and restricted within the closed vicinity of the construction activities along the proposed Udaipur bypass only.

3 1 Considerable amount of emissions of Carbon Monoxide (CO), unburned hydrocarbon, sulfur di-oxide, particulate matters, nitrogen oxides (NOx), etc, will be generated from the hot mix plants. Hot mix plants should be located away from the populated areas and be fitted with the air pollution control equipment, the emission shall meet National standards/ Rajasthan State Pollution Control Board standards. Further, the hot mix plants must be sited at least 1 km in the downwind direction from the nearest human settlement. It shall be ensured that the dust emissions from the crusher and vibrating screen from the stone quarries do not exceed the standards.

Mitigation Measures

� It is suggested that roughness of the proposed Udaipur bypass should be as per IRC:SP:16-2004.

� Vehicles delivering loose and fine materials like, sand and fine aggregates shall be covered to reduce spills on existing road. Water may be sprayed on earthworks, on a regular basis. During and after compaction of the sub-grade, water will be sprayed at regular intervals to prevent dust generation.

� All slopes and embankments will be turfed as per best engineering practices.

� During the construction of the proposed bypass, emissions due to earth works, transportation of construction materials and vehicular movement along the stretch will have temporary though significant impact on air quality. However, air quality level is anticipated to be within the prescribed limit.

The following mitigation measures will also be taken to mitigate the dust entrainment and fugitive emissions from the various sources:

• Asphalt and hot-mix plants will be located at least 1 km away from inhabited stretches along the project road including proposed Udaipur bypass with the clearance from Rajasthan State Pollution Control Board.

• Sprinkling water will control fugitive dust emissions.

• Sprinkling of water on the dust prone areas and construction yard.

• Regular maintenance of machinery and equipment will be carried out.

Ambient air quality monitoring should be carried out during construction phase. If monitored parameters are above the prescribed limited, suitable control measures must be taken.

Operation Phase

During the operation phase, air quality along the project road including proposed Udaipur bypass will be affected by vehicular emissions on the proposed bypass. Pollutants of primary concern will include NOx, CO, PM2.5, PM10 and SO2. In the populated area, traffic congestion due to bottlenecks of constructed road may increase the air pollution problem in the along the road.

Emissions of SPM from the project road including proposed Udaipur bypass will depend on the roughness on the road.

Mitigation Measures

For operation phase following mitigation measures are suggested to control the air pollution:

3 1 • Bottlenecks should be avoided for smooth flow of traffic.

• Plantation of pollutant adsorbing trees along the road,

Ambient air quality monitoring should be carried out during operation phase. If monitored parameters are above the prescribed limited, suitable control measures must be taken.

0.4.5 Impact on Noise and Vibration

Some salient features related to potential noise impact of road development include:

• the road noise impact is greatest where road passes though populated areas,

• the range of noise level should be understood in relation to the habitation type also, for example, road noise in industrial areas is not likely to be problematic but at sensitive location like schools, hospitals, its impact may be significant,

Design and Construction Phase

During the construction phase of project road including proposed Udaipur bypass, noise will be generated from the various activities such as site clearing activities, excavation, erection and finishing. The typical noise levels from these activities are given hereunder:

Site clearing activities 85 dB(A)

Excavation 90 dB(A)

Erection 80 dB(A)

Finishing 85 dB(A)

During the construction phase, the noise level is bound to increase by the use of construction machines, generators, etc. The increase is expected to be between 10 - 20%. However, these noise levels will be temporary in nature mostly during daytime only.

Mitigation Measures

Site Controls: Stationary equipment will be placed along un-inhabited stretches as per distance requirements computed above as far as practicable to minimize objectionable noise impacts.

Scheduling of Project Activities: Operations will be scheduled to coincide with period when people would least likely to be affected. Construction activities will be strictly prohibited between 10 P.M. and 6 A.M. near residential areas.

Protection devices (ear plugs or ear muffs) will be provided to the workers operating in the vicinity of high noise generating machines.

Construction equipment and machinery should be fitted with silencers and maintained properly.

Noise measurements should be carried out along the project road including proposed Udaipur bypass to ensure the effectiveness of mitigation measures.

Operation Phase

During the operation phase, noise will be generated through the vehicles movement. Noise level will depend up on traffic density, number of traffic event. Plantation along the proposed Udaipur bypass will be helpful in attenuation of noise levels during operation phase.

3 1 Mitigation Measures

To mitigate the impact of noise levels during operation phase, following mitigation measure are anticipated:

• Pressure horns in the populated area should be prohibited.

• Developing trees barriers between the road and sensitive area, wherever it is possible.

• Noise measurements should be carried out along the proposed Udaipur bypass to ensure the effectiveness of mitigation measures.

0.4.6 Impact on Flora, Fauna and Ecosystem

Design and Construction Phase

During the design and construction of the proposed bypass, vegetation in the form of trees, shrubs and grasses will be cleared. Matured trees are growing along the road, which will need to clear for construction of the project road including proposed Udaipur bypass.

Important positive and negative impacts on flora, fauna and ecosystem due to proposed Udaipur bypass are:

• Approximately 14572 trees are scheduled trees growing with RoW of project road including proposed Udaipur bypass, which may need to be cleared for construction of the proposed bypass and will be compensated through compensatory afforestation.

• There will be no loss of bio-diversity since no rare/endangered plant or animal species is going to be eliminated due to the proposed upgrading.

• The proposed bypass will not affect migratory path of animal breeding zone or important ecosystems.

• The loss of trees and herbal cover at least during the construction phase, is likely to produce some negative impacts.

• In the length of about 4 km, proposed bypass passes through reserve forest areas. Therefore, diversion of 60.7790 ha forest land will be required for the proposed Udaipur bypass.

Mitigation Measures

Careful and proper planning should be done for re-plantation of trees during design and right at the commencement of construction and the phase wise removal of growing trees will mitigate the negative impacts.

Compensatory plantation should be started during construction phase parallel to the construction activities.

Operation Phase

During the operation phase, no adverse impact is anticipated on the flora and fauna of the area. The plantation along the road on available space will enhance flora in the area.

Mitigation Measures

Compensatory afforestation should be done along the road during operation phase, where ever, it is possible. Monitoring of survival of trees should be done at regular interval and suitable mitigation measures should be taken to protect the trees.

3 1 0.4.7 Impacts on Social Environment

The project road including proposed Udaipur bypass will have some beneficial impact on social environment. Some increase in income of local people is expected as some local unskilled, semiskilled and skilled persons may gain direct or indirect employment during construction phase. Since the immigration of work force during construction phase is likely to be very small, the social impacts on literacy, health care, transport facilities and cultural aspect are expected to be insignificant.

Economic Impacts

The relatively short-lived economic impacts of the construction stage are likely to be experienced in local communities for the duration of construction as workers make everyday purchases from local traders. This is likely to give a short-lived stimulus to these traders that will disappear as soon as the construction is complete. Wider, flow-on economic impacts will be experienced in other sectors of economy as a result of purchase of construction materials and the payment of wages and salaries.

Once the construction of the proposed project road including Udaipur bypass is complete, there is likely to be some long-term changes in the economic structures of the urban and rural areas served by the project.

Impact on Public Health

Unsanitary conditions in the labour camps might also result in impact on health of labourers as well as the local population. Transmission of diseases is also facilitated by the migration of people during construction phase.

During proposed project road including Udaipur bypass construction allied activities like quarrying and crushing operations, traffic diversions, etc., may cause disruption of social and economic life of the local population. Other problems perceived are loss of access and other road accident risks, as a result of diversion of traffic and construction work on road.

Operation stage

Once the construction work is complete, the public health benefits will include beneficial impacts. The improved road standard will increase accessibility to local and regional health centers and other community support facilities.

0.5 Institutional Requirements and Environmental Monitoring Plan

Institutional Arrangements

An institutional mechanism needs to be incorporated in the proposed project management and execution system. The NHAI will be responsible for the implementation of all the mitigation and management measures suggested in EMP for the project road. The NHAI is also responsible for implementation the complete resettlement and rehabilitation for all those affected by the project and is committed to ensure the income restoration of the project affected and project displaced families.

The NHAI has certain organizational and institutional capacity to be able to satisfactory complete the implementation of the EMP.

Environmental Monitoring Plan

CHAPTER – 1 INTRODUCTION

1.1 Introduction

The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has taken-up project preparation of certain selected stretches under NHDP Phase-V, BOT programme, covering about km 1560, out of which km 315 of NH-79A, NH-79 and NH-76 from Kishangarh (km 00.000) to Udaipur (it end at km 214.000 of NH-76) including Udaipur bypass is a part of this prestigious programme and NHAI has been appointed the Louis Berger Group, INC., USA, as consultant to carry out the feasibility study of this section for widening and strengthening of existing 4 lane into 6 lane. The project would envisage widening of existing four- lane highway into six lanes with additional features, such as, providing of additional service roads, underpasses, flyovers and bridges so as to enhance operational efficiency and safety.

Environment plays a vital role in overall development of the country. Recognizing the importance of environmental protection and sustainable development, the Ministry of Environment and Forests (MoEF), Government of India had formulated policies and procedures governing the industrial and other developmental activities to prevent indiscriminate exploitation of natural resources and promote integration of environmental concern in developmental projects. To assess and evaluate potential environmental impacts during design, construction & operation phases and to suggest mitigation measures with detailed environmental management plan, environmental impact assessment study has been conducted for the project road.

During 102nd Meeting of the Expert Appraisal Committee of Ministry of Environment of Forests (MOEF) for Building/Construction Projects/Township and Area Development Projects, Coastal Regulation Zone, Infrastructure Development & Miscellaneous projects held on 23rd & 24th June, 2011, the project was considered and Additional ToR was given. EIA & EMP report has been prepared as per TOR approved by MOEF. Compliance of Additional ToR is given as Appendix 1 in the end of EIA Report.

1.2 Identification of Project Proponent

The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has been entrusted with the development, maintenance and management of the highways as entrusted to it by the Government of India. Under NHDP Phase-V, BOT programme, the Govt. has decided to convert some of the existing 4 lane into 6 lane highways. This project is to be executed as BOT (Toll) project on DBFOT Pattern. Accordingly, National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has taken-up project preparation for six laning of those selected stretches / corridors of existing National Highways. The proposed 6 laning of NH-79A, NH-79 & NH-76 on Kishangarh – Udaipur Section is one among such stretches selected in the State of Rajasthan State.

1.3 Brief Description of the Project

The project road starts from Kishangarh (Km 0.830 of NH-79A) and ends near Ahemdabad (Km 509.000 of NH-8) via Bhilwara, Chittorgarh, Mangalwar, Pratapnagar junction (Udaipur), Balicha, Kaya, Khairwara, Shamlaji, Himmatnagar, Prantij, Chilloda in the state of Rajasthan and Gujarat (index map is shown below). The existing road is four lane divided carriageway including existing Bhilwara Bypass and existing Chittorgarh Bypass, The existing road is part of the NH79A, NH79 and NH76.

The proposed six lane Udaipur bypass will start at km 118.200 near Debari on NH-76 and end at km 286.800 near Kaya on NH-8. The land use pattern of the project area is

1 mainly agriculture land, settlements, industrial and commercial areas including hilly terrain at some locations along the project road. In general, the terrain is plain, rolling and partly hilly. The total length of the proposed bypass is 24.00 km.

The RoW of the proposed bypass is varying in between 60 m to 180 m as per design requirements.

1.4 General Information on Project Road

The 6 laning of NH-79A, NH-79 & NH-76 on Kishangarh – Udaipur Section including Udaipur Bypass is generally intended to improve the economic and social welfare of the people. At the same time, it may also create adverse impact on the surrounding environment. People and properties may be in the direct path of road works are affected. The environmental impact of highway project may include damage to sensitive eco-systems, soil erosion, changes to drainage pattern and thereby ground water, loss of productive agricultural lands, resettlement of people, disruption of local economic activities, demographic changes and accelerated urbanization. Highway development and operation should, therefore, be planned with careful consideration of the environmental impact. To minimize these adverse effects that may be created by the highway development project, the techniques of Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) become necessary. Identification and assessment of the potential environmental impact is an integral part of the project cycle. The Environmental Impact Assessment studies have been carried as a part of planning process to enable a full consideration of alternatives, and to avoid later delays and complications. National Highways Authority of India will have a designated staff member with overall responsibility for environmental matters and knowledge of environmental laws and regulations.

The main objective of 6-Laning of Kishangarh - Udaipur Section of NH-79 A, NH-79 and NH- 76 including proposed Udaipur Bypass is to ensure:

• Facilitate development of Delhi-Mumbai Segment of Golden Quadrangle by widening of Kishangarh-Nasirabad-Bhilwara-Chittorgarh-Udaipur corridor i.e. NH-79A, NH-79 and NH-76 from existing four lane to proposed six lane divided carriage way through DBFO pattern,

• To provide fast corridor for smooth flow of traffic, minimal adverse social and environmental impacts and reduce rate of accident with the proposed six widening and road strengthening,

• Enhanced safety of the traffic, the road users and the people living close to the highway

• Enhanced operational efficiency of the highway,

• Fulfillment of the access needs of the local population

1.5.2 Methodology Adopted For Environmental Impact Assessment

Environment plays a vital role in overall development of the country. Recognizing the importance of environmental protection and sustainable development, the Ministry of Environment and Forest (MoEF), Government of India had formulated policies and procedures governing the industrial and other developmental activities to prevent indiscriminate exploitation of natural resources and promote integration of environmental concern in developmental projects. To assess and evaluate potential environmental impacts during design, construction & operation phases and to suggest mitigation measures with detailed environmental management plan, environmental impact assessment study has been conducted for the project road.

The Ministry of Environment & Forest has made prior environmental clearance (EC) for highway projects mandatory through its notification issued on 14th September 2006 and as amended on 1st December 2009.

The following steps are involved in EIA methodology:

Assembly, Literature Survey and Analysis of Data

Assembly, Literature Survey and Analysis of Data Published and other recorded data e.g. on wildlife, flora, climate, pollution etc. pertaining to the project were studied and reviewed. TOR and MOEF guidelines were also reviewed prior to carry out EIA studies.

Incorporation of Environmental considerations into the Feasibility study

1 Scoping process was used to determine the anticipated range of issues to be addressed and an in-depth study required for environmental analysis during project Design, Construction and Operational phases. Potential impacts due to widening to six lanes of the existing highway were determined by conducting physical visit to the project site and environmental screening. The aim was to address adequately the potential impacts into the design so as to determine the best suited alignment.

Reconnaissance Surveys

These were undertaken by all members of the study teams initiating with a joint reconnaissance with the members of the NHAI and those responsible for the documentation of the environmental investigations and issues.

Preliminary Environmental Screening

The objective behind the environmental screening was to delineate affected environmental features/issues e.g. waterways, forest areas, plantations / trees, cultural heritage, market places/human settlements, agricultural land, air, water, natural resources, noise etc. in the project area, in order to define impacts and to minimize the adverse environmental impacts by suggesting best engineering solutions / options at optimal costs and further to categorize and define the scope of Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) study to be conducted.

Documentation of Baseline Conditions

The area of influence of the project was defined considering MoEF requirements (EIA notification, 14th Sep 2006) and other statutory requirements. Baseline conditions within the defined area were documented. As per MoEF guidelines for conducting EIA; the geographical scope of the EIA study will be of 10 km radius for highway project. However realistically speaking, as the project relates to widening of existing highway, the direct influence of the project is restricted to Right of Way (ROW) only. Therefore the baseline status has been documented at the ROW level. However, major environmental features like wildlife sanctuary, national parks, eco-sensitive zone, and industrial areas were recorded within 10 km radius of the project road.

Assessment of Potential Impacts

The potential significant impacts were identified on the basis of analytical review of baseline data, land uses, environmental factors, socio-economic conditions and review of assessment of potential impacts identified in previous highway projects. Integration of Environmental Assessments in the design process:

Mainstreaming the Environmental Components

The design and decision-making process, integrated environmental and resettlement and rehabilitation issues and prompted the early identification of appropriate actions. Such actions included, for example, shifts in alignments; based on awareness of the locations of cultural resources, and biological resources such as significant areas of roadside trees, temples etc. to reduce local impacts.

Assessment of Alternatives

Alternatives were continuously assessed throughout the process. A more formal assessment was also undertaken as a part of the environmental assessment process including the assessment of the “No Action” Alternative as is customarily included as a part of the formal assessment methodologies to ensure that it has been given proper consideration.

1 Identified Mitigation & Environmental Enhancement Measures

Positive actions to not only avoid adverse impacts, but to capitalize on opportunities to correct environmental degradation or improve environmental conditions were determined.

Community Consultations

Consultations with concerned officials, agencies and potentially affected persons continued through the process and will continue as the project proceeds. The issues raised by the community and the various stakeholders were incorporated in the design and construction/operation plan of the project highway.

Preparation of the Environmental Management Plan (EMP)

An EMP will be prepared to specify the steps necessary to ensure that the necessary measures have been and will be taken. This includes the monitoring plan and gives details of the resources budgeted and the implementation arrangements.

1.8 Environmental Standards and Code of Practices

The up-gradation of six laning of Kishangarh – Udaipur Section including Udaipur Bypass is associated with various adverse environmental impacts. Construction and operational activities of the road project fall under the preview of various environmental and social regulations promulgated time to time by Government of India and State Government. Even before India’s independence in 1947, several environmental and social/resettlement related legislations existed but the real impetus for bringing about a well-developed framework came only after the United Nations Conference on the Human Environment (Stockholm, 1972). Under the influence of this declaration, the National Council for Environmental Policy and Planning within the Department of Science & Technology was set-up in 1972. The Department of Environment was established in 1980 and later evolved into a full-fledged Ministry of Environment and Forests (MoEF) in 1985, which today is the apex administrative body in the country for regulating and ensuring environmental protection. After the Stockholm Conference, in 1976, constitutional sanction was given to environmental concerns through the 42nd Amendment, which incorporated them into the Directive Principles of State Policy and Fundamental Rights and Duties. In past two decades, an extensive network of environmental legislation has grown in the country.

The Constitution of India directs the State to endeavor to protect and improve the environment and to safeguard forest and wildlife of the country. Article 51(g) of the Constitution states that it shall be the duty of every citizen of India to protect and improve the national environment including forests, lakes, rivers and wildlife and to have compassion for living creatures. The language of the Directive Principles of the State Policy (Article 47) also contains a specific provision, which commits the state to protect the environment. In addition to Constitutional provisions, India has established a comprehensive set of laws for the management and protection of the environment.

1.8.2 Applicable Indian Road Congress (IRC) Codes To the Project Road

Thirteen IRC codes and guidelines (Table 1.2) have been segregated that have a direct role in the environmental management during design and construction stages. Details of these codes have been presented in Table 1.2. Indeed most of them were formulated without a proper environmental management backing, therefore a revision of these documents incorporating the environmental and social dimension would make these codes more sensible with double (Engineering and Environmental) applicability i.e., both engineering as well as environmental management requirements.

CHAPTER – 2 PROJECT DESCRIPTION

2.1 Project Location

The Kishangarh – Udaipur project road including Udaipur Bypass lies between the geographical coordinates of 25035.5’N and 73044.5’E to 26035.5’N and 74054’E. The entire length falls in Rajasthan State and passes through Ajmer, Bhilwara, Chittorgarh and Udaipur districts. The terrain is plain except some stretches on Bhilwara bypasses and near Udaipur bypass, which are hilly. The route index map covering the project road sections is shown in Figure 2.1 and alignment marked on toposheet is also shown in Annexure 2.1.

Figure 2.1: Project Index Map

2.2 Description Of The Project

The project road corridor is a Section of NH-79A, NH-79 and NH-76 starting from Kishangarh (km 364.00 of NH-8, 0.0 km towards Delhi) it meets with NH-79 at km 14.10 (0 km at Ajmer) after traversing 36.0 km and follows NH-79 up to Chittorgarh (Km 183.000 of NH-79) and (Km 220.00 of NH-76) via Chittorgarh and meets Udaipur Bypass at Km 113.825. The length of the Udaipur By-pass is 24 km. The road passes through the important towns of Nasirabad (km 14.00 of NH-79), Bhilwara (Km 120.23 of NH-79), and Chittorgarh (Km 183.00 of 79) in the Rajasthan State.

The present configuration of the road is 4-lane in rural areas and 4-lane plus service roads of 5.5 m width (5.0 m carriageway+2*0.25m kerb shyness) on both sides in urban areas. At some places the service road is found to be only 3.5m (3.5m carriageway+2*0.25 m kerb shyness).

The project road traverses through major settlements stretches such as Nasirabad, Gulabpura, Bhilwara, Chittorgarh, Mangalwara and finally at Udaipur. Nasirabad settlement starts from 36+000 and ends at km 46+000 of NH-79 A. Gulabpara settlement starts from km 68+000 and ends at 71+000 of NH 79, Bhilwara by-pass starts at km 148+000 and ends at km 169+000, Chittorgarh by-pass starts at km 190+000 and meets at 4-lane road at km 213+000. This is the end of Chittorgarh by-pass and after that starting chainage of the project road is in decreasing order towards Udaipur. Mangalwara starts at km 170+000 and ends at 173+000. At Mangalwara the project road traverses in highly congested areas with shops and Temple and there is no sufficient ROW for widening of road from 4-lane to 6-lane. Hence, realignment has been provided at Mangalwara.

The proposed six lane Udaipur bypass will start at km 118.200 near Debari on NH 76 and end at km 286.800 near Kaya on NH 8. The proposed six lane Udaipur bypass is located in Udaipur District. In general, the terrain is plain, rolling and partly hilly. The total length of the proposed bypass is 24.00 km.

The maximum portion of the project road passes almost through plain terrain and the area constitutes barren and agricultural fields and bajra, jowar, wheat, barley, maize, small millets and rice are the main agricultural produce. There are number of shops, petrol pumps and built-up areas on the both sides of the project road & a number of village roads on either side of the national highway connect the fields as well as villages.

2.3 Details of Bypasses/ Realignment

In the project road, bypasses/ realignments have been provided to avoid the congested stretches. Details of bypasses and realignments are as given below:

2.4 Services Roads

The service roads are proposed on both sides of the carriageway for plying of local traffic. The need of the service road was accessed through local traffic movement and settlements along the project corridor. There are number of villages/settlements scattered throughout the project corridor. There are isolated rural stretches but looking at the rate of development along the corridor and very objective of six lanning i.e. not to keep any direct access of local traffic to main highway, the need to provide the service road throughout the project corridor length is realized and hence it is proposed to

2.21 Man Power Requirement

For construction of the project road, about 2000 workers including management and supervisory staff will be deployed. Most of the workers will come from local area.

2.22 Project Implementation Schedule

The construction of the project road will be completed within 36 months from the date of start of construction.

2.23 Road Safety Audit

Road Safety audit has the greatest potential for improving safety and is most cost –effective when it is applied to a road or traffic design before the project is built. It can be conducted on any design proposal that involves changes to the ways road users will interact, either with each other or with their physical environment. It is a formal process using a defined procedures.

Road safety audit has been carried out for project road and sufficient measures has been taken for improving detailed engineering design with respect to the road safety audit. The details of audit taken are described in Check list below:

5 3 1 CHAPTER – 3 ANALYSIS OF ALTERNATIVES

3.1. Introduction

In this section, analysis of alternatives for the project have been discussed. The section begins with an analysis of the likely resulting scenario “with” and “without” project. This is based on a quantitative analysis of overall impacts using the Delphi Technique. Various engineering alternatives for the methods of construction are then considered – this involves analysis of the environmental, social, engineering, economic and institutional implications of each option.

The consideration of alternatives of 6 laning of highway is one of the more proactive sides of environmental assessment - enhancing the project design through examining options instead of only focusing on the more defensive task of reducing adverse impacts of a single design. This calls for the systematic comparison of feasible alternatives for the proposed project site, technology and operational alternatives. Alternatives are compared in terms of their potential environmental impacts, capital and recurrent costs, suitability under local conditions and institutional, training and monitoring requirements.

Examining alternative means of carrying out a project involves answering the following three questions:

(i) what are the alternatives?,

(ii) what are the environmental impacts associated with each alternative?, and

(iii) what is the rationale for selecting the preferred alternative?

3.2. Long Term Scenario “With” And “Without” Project

Qualitative analysis of the long-term scenarios likely to occur “with” and “without” project scenario is provided in Table 3.1. The “with” project scenarios will only occur only if the construction stage are followed and all construction activities are carried out according to principles of Environment Friendly Road Construction..

and facilities inadequate drainage. Possible weakening and damage to existing drainage structures causing further damage to the road.

B. Ecological Environment

Flora

About 14,572 numbers of trees exists within ROW which are going to be affected by the proposed project however, through compensatory afforestation @ 1:2 will again improve the greenery of the area.

No change in vegetation and number of trees.

Fauna

Increase disturbance and chances of illegal hunting during construction period which will be minimized by the patrolling of forest department during construction. After construction of expressway along with road side fencing/netting situation will improve positively.

Continued, and possibly increased disturbance to the fauna. Increased disturbance and chances of illegal hunting due to overall traffic growth.

C. Social and Cultural Environment

Social and Cultural Environment

Travel times will increased comfort and safety while traveling. Improved business environment for those living along the highway-increased passing trade from generated traffic and reduced transportation costs for imports and exports of the area.

Traveling may increase time, thereby transportation costs will increase. Reductions in comfort and safety due to congestion and deterioration in highway condition. Business opportunities remain largely the same as before.

D. Institutional Requirements

Training of PIU

Training will need to be provided to relevant PIU officials to improve their environmental monitoring capacity during and after project construction. More staff will need to be recruited at the PIU office to enable smooth flow of all paperwork with regard to implementation of environmental policies and regulations.

No institutional strengthening is required.

E. Economic Situation

Financial Implications

Higher capital costs for using Environmental Friendly techniques for road widening and strengthening. Costs will also be incurred for training of PIU officials. Lower vehicle operating costs associated with smoother riding surfaces and shorter travel times.

No capital costs. However, increasing road maintenance and vehicle operating costs as road deteriorates and as travel times increase.

“Without” Project

Mangalwara At Mangalwara the project road traverses in highly congested areas with both side shops and religious structures and there is no sufficient ROW for widening of road from 4-lane to 6-lane, Hence the best option for this town in terms of speed, safety & resettlement is evaluated & provision of bypass is suggested from km173.00 to 170.00. Proposal of by-pass is the best solution at this moment instead of other alternative (elevated road)

In-terms of speed and safety will further deteriorated

Udaipur Bypass

Within the Udaipur City, the project road is four lanes. For six laning of project road within Udaipur City, large scale displacement of structures will be required and anticipated social impacts will be sever. To minimize social impacts, proposed Udaipur bypass is best alternative. The proposed six lane Udaipur bypass will start at km 118.200 near Debari on NH 76 and end at km 286.800 near Kaya on NH 8. The proposed six lane Udaipur bypass is located in Udaipur District. In general, the terrain is plain, rolling and partly hilly. The total length of the proposed bypass is 24.00 km.

In-terms of speed and safety will further be deteriorated and social impacts will be sever.

G Overall

Long term improved social and environmental conditions but an increase in expenses for project activities during the course of project construction.

Small deteriorations in environmental conditions, no

increase in economic opportunities and increased

expenses associated with maintenance.

The project should lead to an overall improvement in environmental and social conditions. It is, nevertheless important to use environmentally friendly road construction techniques.

3.3. Consideration of Alternatives

In order to find out the technically and environmentally sound, most feasible and environmental friendly alignment of the project road, an in-depth study of topographic survey, physical inspection, environmental and social screening have been carried out. Many of the alternatives were ruled out prima facie. In the analysis, alternatives were identified for further study to identify techno-economically and environmentally sound the best alternatives.

5 3 1 3.3.1 Widening Alternatives

Alternatives for widening play very important role in protection of the environment. Through the selection of right alternative, trees cutting and acquisition of structures can be avoided in significant numbers.

On details survey, field visits alternative analysis following widening options have been finalized.

Advantage

• Displacement of shops and houses have been minimized up to great extent even in settlement area by adopting, realignment, concentric and eccentric widening.

• Cost of resettlement & rehabilitation measures have been controlled up to great extent by minimising displacement of properties.

• Most of the religious structures, which are sensitive issue for local community have been avoided under this alternative.

• Affected persons will also be less in comparison to other alternatives.

• Anticipated environmental impact will be relatively insignificant under this alternative.

Disadvantage

• In concentric widening alternative selected, road safety will be critical issue during construction phase will require special attention.

3.3.2 Alternatives for Trees Cutting

Six laning of the project road will require cutting of trees along the project road including proposed Udaipur Bypass. In most of cases, tree cutting will be necessary. However, efforts have been made to minimize tree cutting by adjusting trees in median. It is estimated that about 14572 trees will need to be cut for 6 laning of the project road including proposed Udaipur Bypass.

3.3.3 Alternatives of Underpass for Settlements

While passing the settlements area, 6 lane of the project road may create difficulties for pedestrian, cattle, carts and vehicles while they want to cross the road. It may result as increase in accidents rates.

Underpasses will be best alternative to ease this problem during six laning of the project road. The proposed locations for vehicular underpasses in the design of project road are given below:

Considering safety of local people and to facilitate the crossing in settlement area, sufficient numbers of underpasses have been provided. Two pedestrian and cattle underpass have been provided in the project road.

Advantage

Underpass will provide easy access to cross the road for pedestrian, cattle, carts and vehicles.

It will minimize the possibility of accidents on the road while crossing the road.

Disadvantage

CHAPTER – 4 DESCRIPTION OF ENVIRONMENT

4.1 Introduction

The project is proposed six lane from Kishangarh to Udaipur including Udaipur bypass connecting to NH 76 to NH 8 including proposed Udaipur bypass. Environmental studies for physical, biological and socio economic baseline environmental conditions along the project road including proposed bypass have been discussed in brief in the following sub-sections:

The collection of baseline information on biophysical, social and economic aspects of the project area is the most important reference for conducting environmental impact assessment studies. The description of environmental settings includes the characteristic of area in which the activity of the project road including proposed bypass would occur and cover area affected by anticipated impacts. For conducting environmental impact assessment, existing environmental conditions along the project road including proposed bypass, have been obtained by primary data collection, monitoring, sampling and secondary data collection from published source and various government agencies. The collection of baseline data was designed to satisfy information requirements and focused on relevant environment aspects that are likely to be affected by the project road including proposed Udaipur Bypass.

4.2 Physical Resources

4.2.1 Topography and Physiography

The topography of the entire section of the project road is open and plain. However, at few places it passes through the rolling terrain & small hill sections.

The topography along the proposed Udaipur Bypass is plain, rolling and hilly terrain. Physiographically, the area has 4 physical divisions namely valley fills, pediment, burried pediment and structural hills. The area generally slopes towards south.

4.2.2 Soil and Geology

The soil in the project area is developed under the arid and humid climate over the bed rocks of complex nature, predominantly under the process of laterization. The soil resulting from the disintegration of various rocks is of a sandy nature, which results from Schists and quartzite’s, contains large portion of sand and it is found in most of the project area. In most of the areas it is very shallow, dry and poor quality. Soil resulting from granite and gneiss contains a certain amount of clay and is comparatively good and is found in most of Kishangarh ranges.

The tract is mostly occupied by yellowish brown, sandy loam to sandy clay loam. Soil texture is weak in structure and is permeable. There is no proper profile development; solum may be weakly to moderately calcareous and a layer of lime concentration is present at 100-150 cm depth. The soil pH along the project road and its influence area varies in between 7.5 to 8.4. The soil of the project area is shown in Figure 4.1.

4.2.3 Borrow Areas & Stone Quarries

During widening of existing 4 lane into 6-lane road including Udaipur bypass, it will be required to raise the embankment at certain locations along the road beyond the existing ground level. For doing so extra earth/soils to be used as sub-grade, selected sub-grade and shoulder materials need to be hauled from designated and approved borrow areas and stone quarries. The identification of borrow areas and stone quarries will be done by the BOT contractor during design stage and in their selection, following care will be taken into account to ensure that:

• Sufficient quantity of suitable soil is available from the borrow pit;

• The borrow areas are as close to the project road as possible;

• The loss of fertile and productive agricultural soil is minimum;

• There is minimum loss of vegetation and fauna;

• The topsoil from the borrow pit will be striped and set aside with microbial preservation methods.

The six laning of the project road requires cutting and filling. Most of the cutting would be utilized for embankment and the balance would be dumped in the low – laying areas within ROW. In most of the sections, existing stone quarries would be operated and hence rehabilitation would not be necessary. The locations of the some of stone quarries are given in Table 4.2:

4.2.4 Surface And Ground Water Hydrology

A. Surface Water Hydrology

There are few natural streams crossed by the proposed Udaipur bypass, which remain dry during non monsoon season.

Rainfall

In the area along the project road including proposed bypass, on an average, 664 mm of rainfall is received annually mainly from south-west monsoon. Rainfall along the proposed bypass is given in Table 4.3 and presented in Figure 4.3 & Figure 4.4. The area receives about 90.7 % rainfall during June to September months. About 9.3 % rainfall is received from October to May months. The study area can be categorized as moderate rainfall area.

B. Ground Water Hydrology

The occurrence of ground water in the area is mainly controlled by the topographic and structural features present in the geological formations. Groundwater occurs mainly under unconfined condition to semi-confined in saturated zone of rock formation. Its occurrence is controlled by topography, physiography and structural features of the geological formations. The movement of the groundwater in hard rock areas is governed by size, openness, interconnection and continuity of structural weak planes while in unconsolidated rocks groundwater movement takes places through pore space between grains.

Aravali Super Group consisting of Phyllites, Quartzites and dolomite form important aquifer especially around Udaipur. Ground water occurs in weathered zones like schistosity, joint, fissures and bedding planes. Quartzites generally occur intercalated with phyllites and are well jointed. Ground water in phylites occurs mainly in fractured cleavages. The depth to water level varies from 15 to 50 m below ground level where as depth of wells varies from 25 to 30 m below ground level. The average yield of wells is around 40 m3/day. The yield of wells varies from 20 to 200m3/ day.

Water Level Fluctuation

Seasonal fluctuation of 0.2 m to 6 m water level during pre and post-monsoon is noticed in the area.

4.2.5 Water Resources

Road development project often significantly alter the hydrological setting of an area and add to the siltation and pollution levels of the water resources, generally when new highway is developed in the region. As this project involves widening and strengthening of the existing highway including bypass and does not consists any major water streams accept Wagan at km 200.00 and Banas and Berach River on Chittorgarh bypass, hence significant impact is not envisaged.

4.2.5.1 Surface Water

There are two perennial surface water resources and three ponds exist along the project road their details are listed out in Table 4.4. A view of pond at km 1.8 on NH-79A & River at Km 200 on NH-76 is shown in Figure 4.5.

4.2.5.2 Drainage and Cross Drainage Structure

The drainage system of the Rajasthan as a whole is influenced by its geological history and location. The Aravalli ranges which run across the state from the south-west to the north-east direction largely influence the drainage system of the state. While a major part of western Rajasthan has an inland drainage system, the southern, the south-eastern and the eastern part have a well developed drainage system. The major rivers crossing the project road are Khari, Kothari, Berach, Mansi and Banas.

The project alignment from Kishangarh to Udaipur falls within the Banas river catchments. The Banas River rising in the Aravallis near Kumbhalgarh, collects major run-off from Bhilwara, Chittorgarh and Udaipur districts through its tributaries, the Khari, Mansi, Kothari, Berach, Wagan etc. Completing a journey of about 480 km & ultimately joins the River Chambal. The catchment area of the river is nearly 45,833 sq.km.

Khari River originated in the hills near Deogarh in Rajsamund district. It flows towards northeast for about 192 km through Ajmer, Bhilwara and Udaipur districts before joining the Bans river near Chosala village in Ajmer District. The river crosses the road near Gulabpura at km 62.400 of NH-79.

Mansi River (tributary of Khari River) also crosses the road after Nanga ka Khera between chainage km 82.000 and 83.000 of NH-79. A network of canals also crosses the alignment between chainages km 115.000 to 120.00 and km 85.000 to 87.000 of NH-79. The catchment area of the Kahri River is nearly 6,268 sq. km.

Kothari River originated in the eastern slopes of the Aravali range near Horera village in Bhilwara district. The river flows through Rajsamund and Bbhilwara district for about 551 km in the hilly region, and 100 km through plain, before joining the Banas near Nandrai village in Bhilwara district. It has a catchment area of nearly 2,341 sq km. & on the left and right there are canals of this river crossing the road. Kothari River crosses the Bhilwara bypass at km 19.000. A water irrigation channel runs along the road on the right side of the road, which crosses the alignment at harnei, before Hamirgarh. The left main canal crosses the alignment at Bhadalikhera. The catchment area of the river is nearly 2341 sq km.

The Louis Berger Group, Inc., USA 4-10

The Berach river, a tributary of Banas river, originates in the hills Northeast of Udaipur city. It flows northeast for about 157 km in Udaipur, Chittorgarh and Bhilwara Districts before joining the Banas near Bigod village in Mandalgarh Tehsil of Bhilwara district. It flows in a hilly region up to Badgaon reservoir and then through plain. River Banas and Berach cross the project road on Chittorgarh bypass.

Further tributaries of the Berach River, namely Wanbli and Wangan, crosses the road at various places after the crossing of Berach river. Wagan river crosses the road before Hajiya Kheri and Bhutia village. River wagan crosses the road alignment at km 200.000 of NH-76 and Wagli River crosses the road before Narayanpura village.

There are also few ponds located along the project alignment in the vicinity of Kishangarh, Bhilwara, Chittorgarh and Udaipur. The water level of these ponds is dependent upon monsoon rainfall.

Drainage is a not a major problem along the maximum portion of the road alignment, However, some problem of drainage has been seen mostly in the built-up stretches (urban areas).

4.2.6 Water Quality

Water quality along the project road was monitored at seven sampling locations for ground water & surface water were selected along the project highway. In order to find out the primary data of existing water quality scenario M/S Mantec Consultants Pvt. Ltd. Noida has been contracted for the collection and analysis of the ground water samples. Mantec Consultants Pvt. Ltd. Noida is an approved Environmental laboratory from Ministry of Environmental and Forests, Government of India, for conducting Air, Water and Noise quality analysis. The details of the sampling locations and their results are given in Table 4.5.

Ground Water Quality Along the Udaipur Bypass

Ground water resources along the proposed bypass alignment were examined for physico-chemical parameters. The samples were collected and analyzed as per the procedures specified in 'Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater' published by American Public Health Association (APHA).

Samples for chemical analysis are collected in polyethylene carboys. Selected physico-chemical parameters have been analyzed for projecting the existing water quality status in the study area.

These water samples were taken as grab samples and were analyzed for various parameters and compared with the standards for drinking water as per IS: 10500.

Ground water samples were collected from most commonly used sources along the proposed bypass. Analysis results for ground water samples are given in Table 4.6.

The colour of ground water samples was less than 2 Hazen units and odour was unobjectionable while taste was agreeable. In the ground water samples, pH values were found in the range of 7.7 to 7.9. Total hardness values vary from 238 mg/l to 263 mg/l. Iron contents in the water samples vary from 0.17 to 0.21 mg/l. Chloride contents range between 145.6 to 162.7 mg/l. It is revealed from observations that all essential parameters of water samples are well below the prescribed limit for potable water as per IS: 10500.

Total dissolved solids in the ground water samples ranges between 621 to 712 mg/l. Calcium contents lie in the range of 63.6 to 74.5 mg/l. Magnesium contents vary in the range of 18.7 to 20.5 mg/l. Sulphate contents vary in between 42.6 to 52.3 mg/l. Nitrate contents vary in the range of 1.9 to 2.4 mg/l. Fluoride contents vary in the range of 0.63 to 0.81 mg/l.

On perusal of the tabulated data, it is observed that analyzed values of ground water samples are well below the prescribed limits for drinking water as per IS: 10500 for all the parameters analyzed and found suitable for drinking.

4.2.7 Meteorological Conditions

The entire project corridor falls in Rajasthan State. The climate of the project area is characterized by great extremes of temperature and long period of severe drought accompanied by high wind velocity and low relative humidity to semi-arid conditions although sharing the characteristic monsoonal variations through the year. It is hottest region of India.

Ajmer weather is a typical desert type. In the summer time, the climate of Ajmer is very hot and in winters, it is quite cool. Both in summers as well as in winters, there is a wide difference in the day and night temperature. Regarding the average temperature in summers (from April to June), the maximum temp is around 45°C & the winter’s season is quite chilly. The climatic condition is best during the period of October to March & ideal time to visit.

The District Bhilwara has a hot dry summer and bracing cold winter. The cold season starts from December and ends in February and followed by hot summers from March to the last week of June. The south west Monsoon season which follows, last till about mid September. The period from mid September to about the end of November constitutes the post monsoon season.

The District Chittorgarh has also a hot dry summer and bracing cold winter. The mean maximum and minimum temperature of the district is 45°C & 7°C respectively & the normal rainfall is 85.21 cms.

The climate of the Udaipur district is moderate without significant seasonal variations. January is the coldest month while May and June are the hottest months. The mean temperature is 22°C. Average rainfall at the district headquarter is 85.80 cms.

Climatological (long-term) data is obtained from the closest Indian Meteorology Department (IMD) station or from any other nearby station, which has been collecting meteorological data for more than ten years.

Udaipur Meteorology Observatory is the IMD station located close to project area, therefore, meteorological data for Udaipur IMD station has been used for the project road.

4.2.8 Ambient Air Quality

The baseline status of the ambient air quality has been established through a scientifically designed ambient air quality monitoring network and is based on the following considerations:

• Meteorological conditions on synoptic scale;

• Topography of the study area;

• Representatives of regional background air quality for obtaining baseline status; and

• Representatives of likely impact areas along the project road.

Frequency and Parameters for Sampling

Ambient air quality monitoring has been carried out with a frequency of two days per week at 7 locations. The baseline data of air environment is monitored for the below mentioned parameters:

• Particulate Matter (PM2.5);

• Particulate Matter (PM10);

• Sulphur dioxide (SO2);

• Oxides of Nitrogen (NOX); and

• Carbon monoxides (CO);

Sampling and Analytical Techniques

Monitored values are compared with National Ambient Air Quality Standards prescribed by Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) for residential, rural and industrial areas.

Ambient Air Quality Status

National air quality standards for rural, residential and industrial area, along the proposed bypass are met for monitored parameters (PM2.5, PM10, SO2, NOx and CO) for all AAQM locations.

4.2.9 Noise Quality

Road noise levels depend on many factors such as traffic density, type and condition of the vehicles plying on the road, acceleration/deceleration/gear changes/level of congestion and smoothness of road surface.

Sound Pressure Level (SPL) measurements were undertaken at locations, with an interval of about 5 seconds over a period of 10 minutes per hour for 24 hr. The day noise level has been monitored during 6 A.M. to 10 P.M. and night levels during 10 P.M. to 6 A.M. at locations.

On the spot measurement device manufactured by Castle Associates, England is used. The sound level meter measures the Sound Pressure Level (SPL), the maximum sound pressure level (Max) and the equivalent continuous noise level (Leq) by switching on the corresponding function mode. Time constant for fast, slow, impulse and peak responses are provided and the suitable response conditions can be selected by operating other switch. The operation of a resetting button permits to erase the maximum hold and integrated values.

For noise levels measured over a given period of time interval, it is possible to describe important features of noise using statistical quantities. This is calculated using the percent of the time certain noise levels are exceeded during the time interval. The notation for the statistical quantities of the noise levels are described below:

• L10 is noise level exceeded 10% of the time;

• L50 is noise level exceeded 50% of the time; and

• L90 is noise level exceeded 90% of the time.

Equivalent Sound Pressure Level (Leq)

The Leq is the equivalent continuous sound level, which is equivalent to the same sound energy as the actual fluctuating sound measured in the same period. This is

Page 108: Six Laning of Kishangarh-Udaipur- Ahmedabad …gpcb.gov.in/pdf/NHAI_KISAGARH_UDAIPUR_AHMEDABAD_EIA_PART...Six Laning of Kishangarh-Udaipur-Ahmedabad Section of NH-79A, NH-79, NH-76

Six-Laning of Kishangarh-Udaipur Section of NH-79/A, NH-79, NH-76 including Udaipur Bypass in Rajasthan

The Louis Berger Group, Inc., USA 4-21

necessary because sound from noise source often fluctuates widely during a given period of time. This is calculated from the following equation:

L eq(hrly) = L50+ (L10 - L90)2/60

Also:

• Lday is defined as the equivalent noise level measured over a period of time during day (6 A.M. to 10 P.M.).

• Lnight is defined as the equivalent noise level measured over a period of time during night (10 P.M. to 6 A.M.).

Ambient noise quality results are as given in Table 4.13:

The study area linking Kishangarh to end of Udaipur passs through Kishangarh, Nasirabad, Gulabpura, Bhilwara (bypass), Chittorgarh bypass, Mangalwara and Pratapnagar covering NH-79A, NH-79 and NH-76. Kishangarh – Udaipur project road is a four lane road & having 315 km length. The widening of the existing four lane road to six lanes would require the 60 m ROW in open area & 45 m in urban/settlement area. To assess the existing baseline ecological status and the likely impact of on biological

resources, terrestrial ecological survey of the project corridor have been carried out with reference to listing of species and ecological conditions of the corridors.

As per revised classification of the Indian Forest by Champion and Seth, the natural Forest of the tract (except that of Aravallis) has been placed in sub-ground 6-B i.e. Northern Tropical Thorn Forest. The major plant species along the road are Babul, Lucina, Khair, Neem, Amaltas, Khejri, Shisham, Kikar, Safeda etc., but survival rates are very poor. It is also found that road side plantation in the state of Rajasthan is declared as protected forest, so that permission from the forest department is mandatory for felling of any tree along the road.

There is no endangered /endemic flora or fauna within the study area.

No national park / Sanctuary / Bird Breeding are located within 10 km on either side of the project road however; the affected forest areas of along the project road are given in Table 4.15.

Roadside trees will have an important impact pertaining to this project. This adverse implication needs to be taken into consideration with compensatory plantation along the proposed alignment. The road stretch has multiple rows of various species on either side such as Babool, Lucina, Neem, Siris, Shisham, Kikar, Safeda etc. and dominant species is Lucina. Entire linear plantation along the road (within ROW) is notified as protected forest.

The project road also passes through some blocks of Reserve Forest and notified protected forest (linear plantation) as given in Table 4.15. However, No land diversion is proposed at these locations because land is already diverted during 4 laning of the road.

Human safety is an important issue along the road as road is used by pedestrians, cyclists, animals, herdsmen as well as bullock carts, scooters, cars, buses, vehicles carrying hazardous industrial goods and trucks. These combinations create hazardous conditions for all the road users. Poor pavement structure and lack of warning / informatory signs and incidental parking particularly in urban stretches seem to be the reasons for accidents on the road. The number of serious accidents is correlated with the total number of accidents involving heavy vehicles. It has been observed that accidents involving trucks and buses constitute about 80% of the total accidents.

Traffic congestion is noticed during survey, especially in urban areas, a view of traffic congestion is depicted in Figure 4.12.

4.5.3 Profile of Project Influence District

Udaipur with its several lakes and picturesque setting is a major tourist destination for both domestic and international tourists. Over the years it has earned several epithets such as “City of Lakes”, “City of Gardens”, “Venice of the East”. Maharana Udai Singh, as the secure capital of the Princely State of Mewar founded Udaipur in 1559 after Chittor fell to Mugal Army. Udaipur is strategically located amidst a saucer shaped basin, in the Valley of Ahar River. It is surrounded by hills of Aravali Range on all sides. The selection of the site was made in part because of its isolation and inaccessibility, favoring its defense.
