PROJECT BRIEF:

The name of the colony for which, the group is now applying for revision of existing

environment clearance due to expansion of EC granted Township named as “ESENCIA”

(56887 m2 / 140 Acres approx.) located in Sector – 67 & 67A, Gurgaon. The total planned area

of both the existing and expansion project at the moment is about 243 acres. Out of which, the

environment clearance of 140.57 acres has already been granted by the State Environment

Impact Appraisal Authority (SEIAA) vide letter No. SEIAA/HR/2012 dated 11.07.2012.

Consent to Establishment has also been granted by Haryana State Pollution Control Board vide

HSPCB/Consent/: 2827414GUNOCTE190984 dated 08/02/2014. (Attached as Annexure

I(a) & Annexure I(b)). For the balance 103 acres, the Ansal API is now applying to the

Hon’ble SEIAA seeking environment clearance as an Expansion Project.

Regarding, the current applied expansion project, it is informed that various land owning

companies and individuals have entered into development agreements with Ansal API for

development and construction of the residential plotted colony. It is like a land pooling

arrangement by a private sector real estate developer. Since, the land has been contributed

willingly by the land owners, there is no issue of displacement of persons or rehabilitation

contrary to the case of compulsory acquisition by Government agencies.

SITE LOCATION AND SURROUNDINGS

Project is located at Village Badshahpur, Tehsil Gurgaon, District Gurgaon, Haryana. The

Geographical Co-ordinates of the project site are 770 03’ 32.6” E & 280 22’ 55.2” N. Google

c. Treatment Technology

The technology is based on attached growth aerobic treatment followed by clarification by a tube

settler. Lime will be dosed in for suppression of foaming tendencies. The clarified water will be

filtered in a pressure sand filter after dosing of coagulant (alum) for removal of unsettled

suspended impurities. This water will be passed through an activated carbon filter for removal of

organics. The filtered water from ACF is then chlorinated & stored in the flushing tank.

The attached growth fluidized aerobic bed reactor (FAB) process combines the biological

processes of attached & suspended growth. It combines submerged fixed film with extended

aeration for treatment of the sullage.

The sullage after screening is collected in an equalization tank. The equalization tank is required

for preventing surges in flow & facilitating equalization of characteristics over the entire quantity

of effluent in a given time. A provision for pre-aeration is made in the equalization tank in order

to ensure mixing & to prevent the sewage from going septic.

The equalized sewage is then pumped into the FAB reactor for biological processing. The water

enters the bottom of the reactor & flows up through the fixed film media which grossly enhances

the hydraulic retention time & provides a large surface area for growth of biological micro –

organisms. The FAB reactor is aerated by fine pore sub – surface diffusers which provide the

oxygen for organic removal. The synthetic media floats on the water & the air agitation ensures

good water to micro-organism contact.

The FAB treatment is an attached growth type biological treatment process where in, the

majority of biological activity takes place on the surface of the PVC media. Continuous aeration

ensures aerobic activity on the surface of the media. Micro – organisms attach themselves on the

media & grow into dense films of a viscous jelly like nature. sullage passes over this film with

dissolved organics passing into the bio-film due to concentration gradients within the film.

Suspended particles & colloid may get retained on this sticky surface where they are


Conceptual Plan

pg. 10

decomposed into soluble products. Oxygen from the aeration process in the sullage provides

oxygen for the aerobic reactions at the bio-film surface. Waste products from the metabolic

processes diffuse outward & get carried away by the sullage or air currents through the voids of

the media.

The aerated effluent passes into a tube deck settler for clarification. The theory of gravity tube

settler system is that the carrier fluid maintains laminar flow in the settling media at specified

maximum viscosity. These two parameters of a carrier fluid, flowing through a hydraulic

configuration, will determine the velocity gradients of the flow, the height of boundary layer at

the inclined surface and the residence time within the media.

The carrier fluid must be viscous Newtonian, exhibiting a Reynolds number of less than 1000

and preferably, a number under 400. The laminar flow, through the inclined tubes, will produce

velocity gradients sufficiently large to form an adequate boundary layer, where the velocity of

fluid approaches zero. Boundary layers are necessary in functioning tube settlers, to allow

suspended solids to separate from the viscous carrier fluid. Under gravitational forces, they will

settle to the hydraulic surface of the tube and subsequently from the clarifier media.

Since the tubes are inclined at 60 degrees, solids settled on the tubes are continually discharged

down. This downward rolling action increases particle contact and hence further agglomeration,

which increases the sludge settle ability. Studies show that these agglomerated sludge particles

can have a settling rate in excess of ten times the settling rate of the individual floc particles in

the influent. These heavy agglomerated masses quickly slide down the 60 degree inclined tube

and settle at the bottom of the tank.

At the bottom of the Tubedeck, where the sludge leaves the Tube surface, the larger

agglomerated captures smaller particles in the upcoming stream. This solid contact phenomenon

greatly enhances the capture efficiency.

Stages of Treatment: The treatment process consists of the following stages:

Equalization

collection/stagnation and flooding of water. The amount of storm water run-off depends upon

many factors such as intensity and duration of precipitation, characteristics of the tributary area

and the time required for such flow to reach the drains. The drains shall be located near the

carriage way along either side of the roads. Taking the advantage of road camber, the rainfall run


Conceptual Plan

pg. 12

off from roads shall flow towards the drains. Storm water from various plots/shall be connected

to adjacent drain by a pipe through catch basins. Therefore, it has been calculated to provide 168

rainwater harvesting pits at selected locations, which will catch the maximum run-off from the

area.

1) Since the existing topography is congenial to surface disposal, a network of storm water

pipe drains is planned adjacent to roads. All building roof water will be brought down

through rain water pipes.

2) Storm water system consists of pipe drain, catch basins and seepage pits at regular

intervals for rain water harvesting and ground water recharging.

3) The peak hourly rainfall of 45 mm/hr shall be considered for designing the storm water

drainage system.

Rain water harvesting has been catered to and designed as per the guideline of CGWA. Peak

hourly rainfall has been considered as 45 mm/hr. The recharge pit of 3 m diameter and 3.5 m

depth is constructed for recharging the water. Inside the recharge pit, a recharge bore is

constructed of adequate diameter and depth. The bottom of the recharge structure will be kept 4

m above the ground water level. At the bottom of the recharge well, a filter media is provided to

avoid choking of the recharge bore. Design specifications of the rain water harvesting plan are as

follows:

Catchments/roofs would be accessible for regular cleaning.

The roof will have smooth, hard and dense surface which is less likely to be damaged

allowing release of material into the water. Roof painting has been avoided since most

paints contain toxic substances and may peel off.

All gutter ends will be fitted with a wire mesh screen and a first flush device would be

installed. Most of the debris carried by the water from the rooftop like leaves, plastic bags

and paper pieces will get arrested by the mesh at the terrace outlet and to prevent

contamination by ensuring that the runoff from the first 10-20 minutes of rainfall is

flushed off.

No sewage or sullage would be admitted into the system.


Conceptual Plan

pg. 13

No sullage from areas likely to have oil, grease, or other pollutants has been connected to

the system.

Calculations for storm water load (Existing + Expansion)

Roof-top area = Ground Coverage = 778147 m2

Green Area = Total green area – water body = 286028 m2

Paved Area = 60425 m2

Runoff Load

Roof-top Area = 778147 × 0.045 × 0.8

= 28013 m3/hr

Green Area = 286028 × 0.045 × 0.1

= 1287 m3/hr

Paved Area = 60425 × 0.045 × 0.75

= 2040 m3/hr

Total Runoff Load = 28013 + 1287 + 2040 m3/hr

= 31340 m3/hr

Taking 15 minutes Retention Time, Total volume of storm water = 31340/4

= 7835 m3

Taking the effective dia and depth of a Recharge pit 3 m and 4 m respectively, Volume of a

single Recharge pit = π r2h = 3.14 × 1.5 × 1.5 × 4 = 28.26 m3

Hence No. of pits required =7835/28.26 = 277.24 Say 277 Pits.

Total of 277 Rain Water Harvesting pits is required for artificial rain water recharge within the

project premises out of which 136 nos. of pits have to be constructed during Existing phase and

the balance 141 in the new / expansion phase.

SOLID WASTE GENERATION

Solid waste would be generated both during the construction as well as during the operation

phase. The solid waste expected to be generated during the construction phase will comprise of

excavated materials, used bags, bricks, concrete, MS rods, tiles, wood etc. The following steps

are proposed to be followed for the management solid waste:

Construction yards are proposed for storage of construction materials.

The excavated material such as topsoil and stones will be stacked for reuse during later

stages of construction

Excavated top soil will be stored in temporary constructed soil bank and will be reused

for landscaping of the plotted colony.

Remaining soil shall be utilized for refilling / road work / rising of site level at locations/

selling to outside agency for construction of roads etc.

ENVIRONMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN

An Environmental Management Plan (EMP) will be required to mitigate the predicted adverse

environmental impacts during construction and operation phase of the project and these are

discussed in later subsections.

EMP for Air Environment

Construction Phase

To mitigate the impacts of dust during the construction phase of the project, the following

measures are recommended for implementation:

A dust control plan


Conceptual Plan

pg. 24

Procedural changes to construction activities

Dust Control Plan

The most cost-effective dust suppressant is water because water is easily available on

construction site. Water can be applied using water trucks, handled sprayers and

automatic sprinkler systems. Furthermore, incoming loads could be covered to avoid loss

of material in transport, especially if material is transported off-site.

Procedural Changes to Construction Activities

Idle time reduction: Construction equipment is commonly left idle while the operators

are on break or waiting for the completion of another task. Emission from idle equipment

tends to be high, since catalytic converters cools down, thus reducing the efficiency of

hydrocarbon and carbon monoxide oxidation. Existing idle control technologies

comprises of power saving mode, which automatically off the engine at preset time and

reduces emissions, without intervention from the operators.

Improved Maintenance: Significant emission reductions can be achieved through

regular equipment maintenance. Contractors will be asked to provide maintenance

records for their fleet as part of the contract bid, and at regular intervals throughout the

life of the contract. Incentive provisions will be established to encourage contractors to

comply with regular maintenance requirements.

Reduction of On-Site Construction Time: Rapid on-site construction would reduce the

duration of traffic interference and therefore, will reduce emissions from traffic delay.

Operation Phase

To mitigate the impacts of pollutants from DG set and vehicular traffic during the operational

phase of the Colony, following measures are recommended for implementation:

DG set emission control measures


Conceptual Plan

pg. 25

Vehicular emission controls and alternatives

Greenbelt development

Diesel Generator Set Emission Control Measures

Adequate stack height will be maintained to disperse the air pollutants generated from the

operation of DG set to dilute the pollutants concentration within the immediate vicinity.

Hence no additional emission control measures have been suggested.

Vehicle Emission Controls and Alternatives

During construction, vehicles will be properly maintained to reduce emission. As it is a

group housing project, vehicles will be generally having “PUC” certificate.

Footpaths and Pedestrian ways: Adequate footpaths and pedestrian ways would be

provided at the site to encourage non-polluting methods of transportation.

Greenbelt Development

Increased vegetation in the form of greenbelt is one of the preferred methods to mitigate

air and noise pollution. Plants serve as a sink for pollutants, act as a barrier to break the

wind speed as well as allow the dust and other particulates to settle on the leaves. It also

helps to reduce the noise level at large extent. The following table indicates various

species of the greenbelt that can be used to act as a barrier.

10.2.2 EMP FOR NOISE ENVIRONMENT

Construction Phase

To mitigate the impacts of noise from construction equipment during the construction phase on

the site, the following measures are recommended for implementation.

Time of Operation: Noisy construction equipment would not be allowed to use at night time.

Job Rotation and Hearing Protection: Workers employed in high noise areas will be employed on

shift basis. Hearing protection such as earplugs/muffs will be provided to those working very

close to the noise generating machinery.

Operation Phase

To mitigate the impacts of noise from diesel generator set during operational phase, the

following measures are recommended:

Adoption of Noise emission control technologies

Greenbelt development

Noise Emission Control Technologies


Conceptual Plan

pg. 27

The DG set room will be provided with acoustic enclosure to have minimum 25 dB(A)

insertion loss or for meeting the ambient noise standard whichever is on higher side as per E

(P) Act, GSR 371 (E) and its amendments. It would be ensured that the manufacturer

provides acoustic enclosure as an integral part along with the diesel generators set. Further,

enclosure of the services area with 4 m high wall will reduce noise levels and ensure that

noise is at a permissible limit for resident of the site and surrounding receptors.

Greenbelt Development

The following species can be used, as in a greenbelt, to serve as noise breakers:

Acacia auriculiformis

Anona squamosa

Acacia farnesiana

Achras sapota

Adenanthera pavonina

Aegle marmelos

10.2.3 EMP FOR WATER ENVIRONMENT

Construction Phase

To prevent degradation and to maintain the quality of the water source, adequate control

measures have been proposed. The following management measures are suggested to protect the

water source being polluted during the construction phase:

Avoid excavation during monsoon season

Care would be taken to avoid soil erosion

Common toilets will be constructed on site during construction phase and the waste

water would be channelized to the septic tanks in order to prevent waste water to

enter into the water bodies

Any area with loose debris within the site shall be planted


Conceptual Plan

pg. 28

To prevent surface and ground water contamination by oil and grease, leak-proof

containers would be used for storage and transportation of oil and grease. The floors

of oil and grease handling area would be kept effectively impervious. Any wash off

from the oil and grease handling area or workshop shall be drained through imperious

drains

Collection and settling of storm water, prohibition of equipment wash downs and

prevention of soil loss and toxic release from the construction site are necessary

measure to be taken to minimize water pollution

All stacking and loading area will be provided with proper garland drains, equipped

with baffles, to prevent run off from the site, to enter into any water body.

Operation Phase

In the operation phase of the project, water conservation and development measures will be

taken, including all possible potential for rain water harvesting. Following measures will be

adopted:

Water source development.

Minimizing water consumption.

Promoting reuse of water after treatment and development of closed loop systems for

different water streams.

Water Source Development

Water source development shall be practiced by installation of scientifically designed

Rain Water Harvesting system. Rainwater harvesting promotes self-sufficiency and

fosters an appreciation for water as a resource.

Minimizing Water Consumption

Consumption of fresh water will be minimized by combination of water saving devices

and other domestic water conservation measures. Further, to ensure ongoing water


Conceptual Plan

pg. 29

conservation, an awareness program will be introduced for the residents. The following

section discusses the specific measures, which shall be implemented:

Domestic and Commercial Usage

Use of water efficient plumbing fixtures (ultra flow toilets, low flow sinks, water

efficient dishwashers and washing machines). Water efficient plumbing fixtures uses

less water with no marked reduction in quality and service

Leak detection and repair techniques.

Sweep with a broom and pan where possible, rather than hose down for external

areas.

Meter water usage: Implies measurement and verification methods.

Monitoring of water uses is a precursor for management.

Horticulture

Drip irrigation system shall be used for the lawns and other green area. Drip irrigation

can save 15-40% of the water, compared with other watering techniques.

Plants with similar water requirements shall be grouped on common zones to match

precipitation heads and emitters.

Use of low-angle sprinklers for lawn areas.

Select controllers with adjustable watering schedules and moisture sensors to account

for seasonal variations and calibrate them during commissioning.

Place 3 to 5 inches of mulch on planting beds to minimize evaporation.

Promoting Reuse of Water after Treatment and Development of Closed Loop

Systems

To promote reuse of waste water and development of closed loop system for waste water

segregation. Two wastewater schemes are suggested, namely:

1) Storm Water Harvest 2) Waste water recycling.


Conceptual Plan

pg. 30

Storm water harvest as discussed in earlier, will be utilized for artificial recharge of

ground water sources; and waste water will be reused on site after treatment.

Treated waste water will be used for landscaping, flushing, DG set cooling and

rest will be discharged to municipal sewer. Following section discuss the scheme

of waste water treatment.

Waste Water Treatment Scheme

Proponent will treat the waste water of the Group Housing in well designed sewage

treatment plant of capacity 4700 KLD based on FAB technology.

Storm Water Management

Most of the storm water produced on site will be harvested for ground water recharge.

Thus proper management of this resource is a must to ensure that it is free from

contamination.

Contamination of Storm Water is possible from the following sources:

Diesel and oil spills in the diesel power generator and fuel storage area

Waste spills in the solid / hazardous waste storage area

Oil spills and leaks in vehicle parking lots

Silts from soil erosion in gardens

Spillage of sludge from sludge drying area of sewage treatment plant

A detailed storm water management plan will be developed which will consider the

possible impacts from above sources. The plan will incorporate best management

practices which will include following:

Regular inspection and cleaning of storm drains


Conceptual Plan

pg. 31

Clarifiers or oil/separators will be installed in all the parking areas. Oil / grease

separators installed around parking areas and garages will be sized according to

peak flow guidelines. Both clarifiers and oil/water separators will be periodically

pumped in order to keep discharges within limits

Covered waste storage areas

Avoid application of pesticides and herbicides before wet season

Secondary containment and dykes in fuel/oil storage facilities

Conducting routine inspection to ensure cleanliness

Provision of slit traps in storm water drains

Good housekeeping in the above areas

EMP FOR LAND ENVIRONMENT

Construction Phase

The waste generated from construction activity includes construction debris, biomass from land

clearing activities, waste from the temporary make shift tents for the labors and hazardous waste.

Following section discuss the management of each type of waste. Besides waste generation,

management of the topsoil is an important area for which management measures are required.

Construction Debris

Construction debris is bulky and heavy and re-utilization and recycling is an important strategy

for management of such waste. As concrete and masonry constitute the majority of waste

generated, recycling of this waste by conversion to aggregate can offer benefits of reduced

landfill space and reduced extraction of raw material for new construction activity. This is

particularly applicable to the project site as the construction is to be completed in a phased

manner.

Mixed debris with high gypsum, plaster, shall not be used as fill, as they are highly susceptible to

contamination, and will be send to designated solid waste landfill site.


Conceptual Plan

pg. 32

Metal scrap from structural steel, piping, concrete reinforcement and sheet metal work shall be

removed from the site by construction contractors. A significant portion of wood scrap will be

reused on site. Recyclable wastes such as plastics, glass fiber insulation, roofing etc shall be sold

to recyclers.

Hazardous waste

Construction sites are sources of many toxic substances such as paints, solvents wood

preservatives, pesticides, adhesives and sealants. Hazardous waste generated during construction

phase shall be stored in sealed containers and disposed off as per The Hazardous Wastes

(Management & Handling) Rules, 1989.

Some management practices to be developed are:

Herbicides and pesticide will not be over applied (small-scale applications)

and not applied prior to rain

Paintbrushes and equipment for water and oil based paints shall be cleaned within

a contained area and will not be allowed to contaminate site soils, water courses

or drainage systems

Provision of adequate hazardous waste storage facilities. Hazardous waste

collection containers will be located as per safety norms and designated hazardous

waste storage areas will be away from storm drains or watercourses

Segregation of potentially hazardous waste from non-hazardous construction site

debris

Well labeled all hazardous waste containers with the waste being stored and the

date of generation

Instruct employees and subcontractors in identification of hazardous and solid

waste

Even with careful management, some of these substances are released into air, soil and water and

many are hazardous to workers. With these reasons, the best choice is to avoid their use as much


Conceptual Plan

pg. 33

as possible by using low-toxicity substitutes and low VOC (Volatile Organic Compound)

materials.

Waste from Temporary Makes Shift Tents for Labors

Wastes generated from temporary make shift labor tents will mainly comprise of household

domestic waste, which will be managed by the contractor of the site. The wastewater generated

will be channelized to the septic tank.

Top Soil Management

To minimize disruption of soil and for conservation of top soil, the contractor shall keep the top

soil cover separately and stockpile it. After the construction activity is over, top soil will be

utilized for landscaping activity. Other measures, which would be followed to prevent soil

erosion and contamination include:

Maximize use of organic fertilizer for landscaping and green belt development

To prevent soil contamination by oil/grease, leaf proof containers would be used

for storage and transportation of oil/grease and wash off from the oil/grease

handling area shall be drained through impervious drains and treated

appropriately before disposal

Removal of as little vegetation as possible during the development and re-

vegetation of bare areas after the project.

Working in a small area at a point of time (phase wise construction)

Construction of erosion prevention troughs/berms.

Operational Phase

The philosophy of solid waste management at the complex will be to encouraging the four R’s of

waste i.e. Reduction, Reuse, Recycling and Recovery (materials & energy). Regular public

awareness meetings will be conducted to involve the residents in the proper segregation and

storage techniques. The Environmental Management Plan for the solid waste focuses on three

major components during the life cycle of the waste management system i.e., collection and

transportation, treatment or disposal and closure and post-closure care of treatment/disposal

facility.


Conceptual Plan

pg. 34

Collection and Transportation

During the collection stage, the solid waste of the project will be segregated into

biodegradable waste and non-biodegradable. Biodegradable waste and non

biodegradable waste will be collected in separate bins. Biodegradable waste will

be treated in the project premises by vermicomposting. The recyclable wastes will

be sent off to recyclabers. Proper guidelines for segregation, collection and

storage will be prepared as per MSW Rules, 2000 and amended Rules, 2008.

To minimize littering and odour, waste will be stored in well-designed containers/

bins that will be located at strategic locations to minimize disturbance in traffic

flow

Care would be taken such that the collection vehicles are well maintained and

generate minimum noise and emissions. During transportation of the waste, it will

be covered to avoid littering.

Disposal

With regards to the disposal/treatment of waste, the management will take the services of the

authorized agency for waste management and disposal of the same on the project site during its

operational phase.

EMP FOR ECOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENT

Construction activity changes the natural environment. But Residential colony also creates a

built environment for its inhabitants. The project requires the implementation of following

choices exclusively or in combination.

Construction Stage

Restriction of construction activities to defined project areas, which are ecologically

sensitive

Restrictions on location of temporary labor tents and offices for project staff near the

project area to avoid human induced secondary additional impacts on the flora and

fauna species

Cutting, uprooting, coppicing of trees or small trees if present in and around the

project site for cooking, burning or heating purposes by the labors will be prohibited

and suitable alternatives for this purpose will be made

Along with the construction work, the peripheral green belt would be developed with

suggested native plant species, as they will grow to a full-fledged covered at the time

of completion.

Operation Stage

Improvement of the current ecology of the project site will entail the following measures:

Plantation and Landscaping

Green Belt Development

Park and Avenue Plantation


Conceptual Plan

pg. 36

The section below summarizes the techniques to be applied to achieve the above objectives:

Plantation and landscaping

Selection of the plant species would be done on the basis of their adaptability to the existing

geographical conditions and the vegetation composition of the forest type of the region earlier

found or currently observed.

Green Belt Development Plan

The plantation matrix adopted for the green belt development includes pit of 0.3 m × 0.3 m size

with a spacing of 2 m x 2 m. In addition, earth filling and manure may also be required for the

proper nutritional balance and nourishment of the sapling. It is also recommended that the

plantation has to be taken up randomly and the landscaping aspects could be taken into

consideration.

Multi-layered plantation comprising of medium height trees (7 m to 10 m) and shrubs (5 m

height) are proposed for the green belt. In addition creepers will be planted along the boundary

wall to enhance its insulation capacity.

Selection of Plant Species for Green Belt Development

The selection of plant species for the development depends on various factors such as climate,

elevation and soil. The plants would exhibit the following desirable characteristics in order to be

selected for plantation

1. The species should be fast growing and providing optimum penetrability

2. The species should be wind-firm and deep rooted

3. The species should form a dense canopy

4. As far as possible, the species should be indigenous and locally available

5. Species tolerance to air pollutants like SO2 and NOx should be preferred

6. The species should be permeable to help create air turbulence and mixing within the belt


Conceptual Plan

pg. 37

7. There should be no large gaps for the air to spill through

8. Trees with high foliage density, leaves with larger leaf area and hairy on both the surfaces

9. Ability to withstand conditions like inundation and drought

10. Soil improving plants (Nitrogen fixing rapidly decomposable leaf litter)

11. Attractive appearance with good flowering and fruit bearing

12. Bird and insect attracting tree species

13. Sustainable green cover with minimal maintenance.

Parks and Avenue Plantation

Parks and gardens maintained for recreational and ornamental purposes will not only

improve the quality of existing ecology at the project site but also will improve the

aesthetic value.

Avenue Plantation

1. Trees with colonial canopy with attractive flowering

2. Trees with branching at 7 feet and above

3. Trees with medium spreading branches to avoid obstruction to the traffic

4. Fruit trees to be avoided because children may obstruct traffic and general movement

of public

10.2.6 EMP for Socio-Economic Environment

The social management plan has been designed to take proactive steps and adopt best practices,

which are sensitive to the socio-cultural setting of the region. The Social Management Plan for

group housing project focuses on the following components:

Income Generation Opportunity during Construction and Operation Phase


Conceptual Plan

pg. 38

The project would provide employment opportunity during construction and operation

phase. There would also be a wide economic impact in terms of generating opportunities

for secondary occupation within and around the complex. The main principles considered

for employment and income generation opportunities are out lined below:

Employment strategy will provide for preferential employment of local people

Conditions of employment would address issues like minimum wages and medical

care for the workers. Contractors would be required to abide to employment priority

towards locals and abide by the labor laws regarding standards on employee terms

and conditions.

Improved Working Environment for Employees

The project would provide safe and improved working conditions for the workers

employed at the facility during construction and operation phase. With the proposed

ambience and facilities provided, the complex will provide a new experience in living

and recreations. Following measures would be taken to improve the working environment

of the area:

Less use of chemicals and biological agents with hazard potential

Developing a proper interface between the work and the human resource through a

system of skill improvement

Provision of facilities for nature care and recreation e.g. indoor games facilities

Measures to reduce the incidence of work related injuries, fatalities and diseases

Maintenance and beautifications of the complex and the surrounding roads

10.2.7 EMP FOR ENERGY CONSERVATION

Energy conservation program will be implemented through measures taken both on energy

demand and supply.


Conceptual Plan

pg. 39

Energy conservation will be one of the main focus during the complex planning and operation

stages. The conservation efforts would consist of the following:

Architectural design

Maximum utilization of solar light will be done.

Maximize the use of natural lighting through design.

The orientation of the buildings will be done in such a way that maximum daylight is

available.

The green areas will be spaced, so that a significant reduction in the temperature can take

place.

Energy Saving Practices

Energy efficient lamps will be provided within the complex.

Constant monitoring of energy consumption and defining targets for energy conservation.

Adjusting the settings and illumination levels to ensure minimum energy used for desired

comfort levels.

Supply Energy Conservation Demand

Utilize energy-efficient diesel genetators

Exploring the possibilities of introducing

renewable energy

Reduce consumption

Use energy efficient appliances

Create Guest Awareness


Conceptual Plan

pg. 40

Behavioral Change on Consumption

Promoting resident awareness on energy conservation

Training staff on methods of energy conservation and to be vigilant to such opportunities.

10.3 ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AND MONITORING PLAN

For the effective and consistent functioning of the complex, an Environmental Management

system (EMS) would be established at the site. The EMS would include the following:

An Environmental management cell.

Environmental Monitoring.

Personnel Training.

Regular Environmental audits and Correction measures.

Documentation – standards operation procedures Environmental Management Plan

and other records.

10.3.1 ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT CELL

Apart from having an Environmental Management Plan, it is also proposed to have a permanent

organizational set up charged with the task of ensuring its effective implementation of mitigation

measures and to conduct environmental monitoring. The major duties and responsibilities of

Environmental Management Cell shall be as given below:

To implement the environmental management plan.

To assure regulatory compliance with all relevant rules and regulations.

To ensure regular operation and maintenance of pollution control devices.

To minimize environmental impact of operations as by strict adherence to the EMP.

To initiate environmental monitoring as per approved schedule.
