No Nil in 15 km radius area The project site falls in zone-II as per IS 1893 (Part-I): 2002, indicating that the site is seismically stable zone. Also, the site does not fall under flood prone or landslide prone areas. Hence, no risk due to natural hazards is envisaged.

(IV) Proposed Terms of Reference for EIA studies

The plant has already obtained EC and is already fully equipped with effective pollution control measure and environmental management action plan. By using mix fuel from alternate sources as linkage Coal, Coal from open market, E-auction, washery tailing/rejects apart from adding small quantity of Agri Residues (1-2%), Imported coal and Pet coke (1-2%) to top up and enhance the fired coal CV to achieve the minimum required fired coal CV suitable to Boiler in case when Indian coal CV comes


12

lower due to bad quality in domestic coal, there will not be significant impact in air quality owing to higher GCV and lesser quantity of coal consumption. Further, the ash generation will be reduced, owing to lesser ash percentage in the proposed fuel mix.
