1 Introduction



1.1 Purpose and Justification of the Project

Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is a process of identifying, predicting, evaluating

and mitigating the biophysical, social, and other relevant effects of development proposals

prior to major decisions being taken and commitments made. These studies integrate the

environmental concerns of developmental activities in to the process of decision-making.

To minimize environmental pollution due to the small and medium-scale industrial units,

cleaner production technologies and formation of waste minimization circles are being

encouraged in India. Besides, collective treatment at a centralized facility, known as the

Common Effluent Treatment Plant (CETP) is considered as a viable treatment solution,

to overcome the constraints associated with effluent treatment in small to medium

enterprises. In 1991, the Ministry of Environment & Forest, Government of India initiated

an innovative financial support scheme for Common Effluent Treatment Plants (CETPs) to

ensure the growth of small and medium entrepreneurs (SMEs) in an environmentally

compatible manner.

The concept of CETP has been adopted to achieve end-of-pipe treatment of combined

effluent to avail the benefit of scale of operation. In addition, the CETP also facilitates in

reduction of number of discharge points in an industrial estate for better enforcement and

to make the skilled man power available for proper treatment of effluent.

M/s Enviro Technology Ltd (ETL) is operating a Common Effluent Treatment Plant (CETP) ,

the first on BOO (Build Own Operate) basis since 1996 at plot No 2413/14 GIDC Notified

Industrial Estate Ankleshwar . Raw Effluent from more than 275-member industries such

as dyes, intermediate, pigment, chemicals, textile, pharmaceuticals etc. that are flourishing

in and around Ankleshwar industrial estate is collected in tankers and treated at CETP

having Primary, Secondary and Tertiary Treatment facilities. Treated effluent from CETP is

being discharged through GIDC drain into Final Effluent Treatment Plant (FETP) operated

by M/s. Narmada Clean Technology Ltd. (NCTL), Ankleshwar for further treatment and

disposal to deep sea. The plant is in operation with valid Consent to Operate &

Authorization valid up to 18.03.2024.

The initial capacity of CETP was about 1500 m3/day . Later, in 2004 the capacity was

enhanced to 1800 m3/d industrial effluent. The Enviro Technology Limited had obtained

Environment Clearance (EC) vide letter No.10-2/2008-IA.III Dated 23rd

July 2009 for

proposed capacity enhancement of Common Effluent Treatment Plant (CETP) for treatment

of industrial effluent from 1.8 to 3.5 MLD.

The Validity of Environmental Clearance (EC) for expansion was extended up to

22/07/2019 vide Letter No: (Vide MoEF No.10-2/2008-IA. III 3rd July 2017) for treatment

of 3500 m3/day industrial wastewater and use of 1445 m3/day GIDC water.



Consequent to notification of Moratorium imposed in Critically Polluted Areas which

included Ankleshwar Industrial Estate vide OM No: J-11013/5/2010-IA. II (I) on 13th

January 2010, there has been no expansion and no new industries came up as a result there

has been no increase in effluent quantity. Accordingly, ETL did not expand the capacity of

CETP and continued to operate on existing capacity of 1.8 MLD of raw effluent as earlier.

In the year 2016, the Moratorium has been lifted for Ankleshwar Vide Letter No: J-

11013/5/2010-IA. II (A) on Dated 25th November 2016 based on CEPI index.Based on the

extensive experience of operating the Common Effluent Treatment Plant, ETL proposes

Expansion with modification in the treatment technology plans to utilize the modified

quantity sewage mixed with industrial wastewater treatment and fresh water used for

chemical dosing & other uses.

ETL has implemented ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001. ETL also supports member industries

in cleaner production practices and in implementation of ISO 14001. ETL is successful

public – private partnership model. ETL is rated as best CETP in operation amongst 22

operating CETPs in Gujarat, by GPCB in 2002.CATEGORY OF THE PROJECT

As per the EIA Notification, 2006 [as amended], the Common Effluent Treatment Units

(CETP) units listed at Serial no. 7(h) of the Schedule of EIA Notification of 14-09-2006 are

categorized under Category ‘B’. However due to location of the existing CETP in the

Critically Polluted Area the project has been categorized as “A” category. For the same term

of reference has been approved by MoEF & CC (EAC), New Delhi in 36th Meeting of EAC

held on 26-28th Nov 2018 to conduct EIA study.

Presently, M/s. ETL has a capacity to treat the 1.8 MLD raw effluent along with the sewage

from the residential area. However because of industrial belt expansion, there is an

increase in effluent quantity generation. Hence, M/s. ETL is planning to expand the

capacity of CETP by adding certain equipments and infrastructure. Since this expansion

plan / additions require Environmental Impact Assessment Studies and Environmental

Clearance, the Company has entrusted M/Shivalik Solid Waste Management Ltd., for

carrying out the EIA Studies as per the prevailing rules and regulations. The EIA Study has

been carried out as per the guidelines of Ministry of Environment & Forests, New Delhi. As

the project under consideration is an existing unit with proposed expansion, there are no

alternatives available for consideration. However, the suitability of the project site has been

assessed in the report. A mitigation plan has been prepared and a detailed environmental

management plan (EMP) is drawn out to effectively mitigate or minimize potentially

adverse environmental impacts and the details are presented in the following chapters.



This being CETP, there is no manufacturing activity. The total pollution load of the unit

after the proposed expansion have been tried to evaluate in this report.

1.4 Approach of the EIA study

Based on approve TOR vide letter No. F. No 10-82/2018-IA-III dated 13.12.2018 as

approved in the 36th minutes of meeting of the EAC (Infra-2), held on 26th -28th

November 2018, the present EIA study has been conducted in four parts.

The first part focuses on describing waste water treatment facility and the existing

environmental conditions, with regards to the identified environmental attributes

based on the information gathered for the proposed project activities, which are

likely to be impacted. For the purpose the relevant baseline data has been collected

as per the MoEF guidelines.

The second part of the study report covers identification, prediction and evaluation

of the likely impacts. Anticipated environmental impacts require specific studies for

significance as given in impact matrix (Manual method may be referred). Tools as

given in the manual may be used for the assessment of environmental impacts. The

baseline information provides a datum for prediction and evaluation of the impacts.

Also, analysis of alternate resources and technologies has been carried out.

The third part of the report deals with the Environmental Monitoring Program and

Health & Safety aspects of the proposed project.

The fourth part is devoted to the development of the Environment Management

Plan, which highlights the mitigation measures necessary for preventing and/or

minimizing the identified adverse impacts, project benefits and summary and

conclusion.

2 Project Description

2.1 Introduction

At Ankleshwar, there are several small, medium and large-scale industries in operation.

Medium and Large-scale industries are having their own Effluent Treatment Plant. Such

industries are treating their effluent and discharging to GIDC Drainage which is taken to

FETP of NTCL for further treatment and disposal to deep sea. SSIs have limited facilities for

effluent treatment and hence ETL has set up CETP with primary, secondary and tertiary

treatment. Treated effluent from ETL is also discharged to GIDC Drainage system which

goes to FETP of NCTL (Narmada Clean Technology Ltd) along with effluent from other

industries, for further treatment and disposal up to deep sea through closed pipe line

system. Based on effluent characteristics and effluent quantity, NCTL is charging ETL for

further treatment of effluent and disposal up to deep sea. ETL has also obtained

membership for discharge of additional quantity of effluent after proposed expansion.

Hazardous waste generated in the form of sludge is dewatered and disposed off at

CHWTSDF operated by BEIL at Ankleshwar.

The plant is in a well-developed industrial estate developed by Gujarat Industrial

Development Corporation, which has all essential facilities such as water, power, fuel, post,

telecommunication, bank, etc. It is one of the largest industrial estates of Asia

encompassing more than 1000 industries. Ankleshwar Industries Association has set up a

Disaster Prevention & Management Center (DPMC) to take care of any emergency.

Based on the day today experience of operating the Common Effluent Treatment Plant

ETL proposes to modify / modernise the treatment technology plans to utilize the modified

quantity of sewage and GIDC water mixed with 3500 m3/day industrial wastewater

treatment in the same premises.

2.2 QUANTUM AND SOURCES OF WASTE WATER

Raw effluents from Small Scale Industries, who are members of the CETP operated by M/s.

Enviro Technology Ltd. are being transported by using rubber lined tankers. After

analyzing the raw effluent, it is collected in equalization tank and followed by Primary,

secondary and tertiary treatments. Treated effluent from CETP is being discharged through

GIDC drain into FETP operated by M/s. Narmada Clean Technology Ltd. (NCTL),

Ankleshwar for further treatment and disposal to deep sea. List of member industries and

quantity of effluent is given in table 2.1 below

Additional list of member industries willing to join is listed in table 2.2 and member units

proposing for expansion is listed in table 2.3.

2.3 PROCESS DETAIL

The small-scale industries who are members of the CETP store their raw effluent in

storage tanks. These effluents are transported through rubber linked tankers from the

industries to the CETP at ETL (CETP) on receipt at CETP they are unloaded into

Equalization Tanks, Samples are checked for COD, Acidity and Ammonical Nitrogen. In

proposed expansion & modification Comparative parameters are given below

S. No. Particular Existing

MLD

Proposed

MLD

1 Raw Effluent from Member Industries 1.8 3.5

2 Sewage 1.7 1.7

3 Fresh/Raw Water 0.725 0.465

4 Quantity of discharge of Effluent from CETP 3.5 5.548



Primary Treatment:

The effluent is segregated in Low Ammonical Nitrogen stream and High Ammonical

nitrogen

stream. Separate equalization tanks are provided for both the streams. Eq tanks no

1/2/5/6 are used for Low Ammonical nitrogen and Eq tanks 3 / 4 are used for High

Ammonical Nitrogen streams.

The low Ammonical Nitrogen stream are pumped to neutralizer tanks where it is

neutralized by 10 % lime solution and then suitable dose of coagulant/flocculant are added

before primary clarifier. In primary clarifier the primary sludge is separated out from

bottom and send to decanter for dewatering. The overflow from decanter is recycle back to

primary clarifier. The overflow from primary clarifier is passed through primary sand filter

to remove any carry overflow of TSS.

The High Ammonical nitrogen stream from Eq tanks 3 /4 is pumped to MAP treatment

plant where suitable dose of magnesium chloride and Sodium di-ammonium phosphate is

added at pH 9. The pH adjustment will be done by 30 % NaOH solution. The MAP crystal

are separated out using Tube settler and the dewatered in filter press. The clear effluent

from Tube settler is mixed with low Ammonical stream before primary sand filter. The

mixed stream after primary sand filter is treated in new aeration tanks (ASP-III, 10500 m3).

Secondary Treatment:

During pilot plant study it is observed that by increasing volume of 1st stage ASP it is

possible to treat more effluent in the same facility created for 220 tanker/day. So new

10500 m3 Bioreactor will be constructed and suitable air will be provided by fine diffusers.

The biomass from overflow from ASP-III is separated in Secondary clarifier (Primary

clarifier-I is converted to secondary clarifier). Biomass wasted from sec clarifier and

dewatered in decanter. The overflow from secondary clarifier is the transferred to Anoxic

tank of ASP by gravity. Here de-nitrification reaction is takes place and for that internal

recycle/ external recycle from aerobic part is provided. This process is being called MLE

(Modified Ludzack Ettinger Process). Mild agitation will be provided in Anoxic tank to keep

mass in suspension. The overflow from anoxic tank is further aerated in nitrification tank

where air is passed through fine diffusers for nitrification process. The biomass from this

tank is transferred to anoxic tank by Internal recycle. The overflow from aerobic tank is

transferred to sec clarifier I/II/III biomass separated and recycle back to anoxic tank. Bio

mass wasted from underflow to keep required MLVSS in the system. Overflow from

secondary clarifier is further treated in tertiary plant.



Tertiary Treatment:

Suitable sand filters and activated carbon filters are provided for tertiary treatment. The

tertiary treated effluent is discharged to GIDC drainage line for further treatment at NCTL

(Narmada Clean Technology Ltd) before deep sea discharge.

Online Magnetic flow meter, pH meter and TOC meter are provided for continuous

monitoring of Flow, pH, TOC /COD.

Advantages of Proposed Scheme

Operation of Primary treated effluent with 2 stage ASP +MLE Pilot Plant following benefits

are being observed:

Convert both the processes into relatively modern high rate processes instead of

traditional extended aeration:

C-removal by high rate activated sludge process.

N-removal by Modified Ludzak-Ettinger (MLE) process, a combination of

anoxic-aerobic reactors (requires minor modification of the existing tank to

create an anoxic chamber in 1/3rd of the tank volume).

Separate the C-removal and N-removal in a sequential manner into two existing

reactors. In two stage ASP and MLE, the composition of bacterial consortium is

different in two reactors.

Additional Gain: ammonia nitrogen will mostly be converted to gaseous nitrogen.

Total nitrogen disposal to the water bodies will be reduced.

Hydraulic load of the primary treated effluent may be increased by decreasing

sewage.

Specific organic carbon removal capacity per unit reactor volume (BOD or COD

removal in kg/m3/d) is more compare to extended aeration

Outlet COD will lower by 100-200 mg/L

M/s. Enviro Technology Ltd. is operating Common Effluent Treatment Plant consisting of

Primary, Secondary and Tertiary Treatment units. The unit is going to install new

equalization tanks and secondary treatment for proposed modification. It may be noted

that the same primary treatment facility will be utilized for proposed modification i.e. no

change in primary treatment. The details of Proposed + Existing Common Effluent

Treatment Plant are as follows.

2.7.5 Connectivity

M/s. Enviro Technology Ltd. is located at Plot No. 2413/14 & 2211, Notified Industrial

Estate, Ankleshwar, Dist: Bharuch at longitude 21º E and latitude 73º 24’ N. Detailed layout

map of the plant is shown in Figure – 1.1. Total area covered by Ankleshwar Taluka is about

435.33 Sq. Km. The industrial estate, wherein M/s. Enviro Technology Ltd. is located, is

near Bharuch, Jhagadia and Panoli which are all important industrial and commercial

centers of Gujarat and India.

The nearest large city is Surat, which is about 62 km away and has population of around

24.3 Lac. Ankleshwar is about 4 km away from the project site and well connected by road.

National highway No. 8 is 3 km away from the project site and State Highway No. 64, State

Highway No. 76 and State Highway No. 13 are also proximal to the project site and rail to



rest of India. The area is connected by National Highway 8 (Mumbai to New Delhi) and by

the Western Railway Division of Indian Railways. The railway division also runs the broad-

gauge train services to Rajpipla. The 133-year-old Golden Bridge connects Ankleshwar to

Bharuch across the Narmada on the station front while a new bridge connects the highway,

the other bridge on the highway is now ready to use. Ankleshwar JN Rail Way Station,

Sanjali Railway Station are the very nearby railway station to Ankleshwar GIDC. However,

Surat Railway Station is major railway station 56 KM near to Ankleshwar GIDC.

Ankleshwar City Bus stand is located on Station Road (i.e. located in the City, the western

section).

Natural Gas is supplied in the estate by Gujarat Gas Co. Ltd. through pipeline for industrial

purpose. Water for industrial purpose is available from GIDC water supply. Development of

Communication systems is good in the region due to proximity to Bharuch and Surat.

Sources of water in the region include Cannel, river, and ground water resources. TSDF site

and Final Effluent Treatment Plant are operated by M/s Bharuch Enviro Infrastructure Ltd.

and M/s. Bharuch Eco-Aqua Infrastructure Ltd. respectively located at Ankleshwar, each

about 2 km and 6.5 km away respectively from the project site.

2.8 Air Emissions and Control

No gaseous emission in terms of flue gas and process gas has been envisaged from the

proposed project of CETP. However, 2 nos. Of D.G. Sets having capacity of 1010 kVA will be

installed for emergency purpose. The D.G. Sets will have stack height as per the CPCB

guidelines. The operation of D.G. sets in case of power staggering day / power failure will

be the only occasional source of emission. As the effluent to be received at CETP will not

have any sewage from the member units and considering the quality of the raw effluent i.e.

low COD load, the chances of mal-odour nuisance is not likely to be there. However, the

green spaces, green belt and effective housekeeping of the CETP area, will reduce the odor

nuisance, if at all.

3 Description of Environment

3.1 Introduction

The baseline environmental quality in the vicinity of the project site and the study area is

useful for identification, prediction and evaluation of impacts due to proposed project

activities. Prevailing environmental conditions served as an essential tool to determine the

extent of impacts likely to occur due to proposed activity. The existing environmental

conditions provide a datum to predict and assess the environmental changes likely to

occur. The environmental quality with reference to different environmental attributes

namely Air, Water, Noise, Soil, Ecology and Socioeconomic has been determined, as desired

at the scoping stage. The study covers the core zone and buffer zone around the 10km

radius if the project site.

3.2 Study Area

For the description of baseline environmental scenario, the project area for CETP falling

within the premises of GIDC area has been considered as the core zone. The area falling

within a distance of 10 km from the boundary of the core zone has been considered as the

buffer zone. The core zone and the buffer zone, combined together, form the study area.

The study area of the proposed CETP at Ankleshwar, Gujarat is shown in Fig.3-1.

S. No. Latitude Longitude

1 21037’11.03” N 730 01’38.52” E



Figure 3-1: Study Area Map of ETL, CETP, Ankleshwar



3.2.1 Geomorphology and Soil Type

The surrounding landscape is adulatory and characterized by small hillocks gentle slope

show ever; the project site is a flat land and comprising soils & alluvium.

The geological formations of the area show that study area of Ankleshwar is situated in the

region where deep black type i.e. transported soil are prominent. The depth of these soils

varies from 60 cm to few meters. The deep black soils, in general, are clayey in texture,

poor in drainage and neutral to alkaline reaction. The site is located on alluvial plain. The

topmost layer of soil is mainly, black cotton type, with its thickness around 2.5 m. Below

this layer, there is a brownish to yellowish brown silty clay extending up to about 5m

depth.

3.2.2 Water level Behavior

The geology of the area with vast area affected by inherent/coastal salinity, presents a

complex hydrogeological pattern. The hard rocks, the semi-consolidated Cretaceous, and

Tertiary formations and unconsolidated alluvial deposits, all comprise multi – aquifer

systems thereby presenting unconfined as well as confined groundwater conditions in the

area. Groundwater occurs under unconfined conditions in the limestone and sandstone

aquifers of Bagh beds. Occurrence and movement of groundwater is restricted mainly to

the fractures and joints in the limestones and sandstones.

The Deccan Trap have given rise to multi-layered stratified aquifers. Each individual flow

comprises two distinct units, namely the upper vesicular basalt and the lower massive

basalt. The massive basalt is hard and compact with primary porosity but the vesicular

basalts exhibit porosity. The movement of groundwater is therefore controlled by the

secondary porosity developed by the presence of fractures and joints. The paleo

weathering which is invariably observed at depth near the top of every flow, has given rise

to good aquifers at depth. The yield of the dug wells in Deccan traps, which range in depth

from 5 to 25m bgl, sustain pumping from 1/2 hour to 10 hours with discharge varying from

200 to 1200 litre per minute (LPM) for drawdown of 4 to 7 m. Bore well tapping deeper

zones down to 150m below ground level(bgl), have yielded 100 to 600 LPM for a

drawdown of 6 to 15m.

The sandstone are the main aquifers in the tertiary formations but the limestone also yield

significant quantities of groundwater. The alluvium formations in the western most part of

the area do not constitute potential aquifers on account of inferior quality of water.

Depth to Water Level

In the study area, depth to water level ranges 15 to 30 m bgl. Shallow water level i.e. less

than 5 m bgl is observed along the Narmada River. Post monsoon water level as shown in



the map for the period reveals that water levels in general area shallower as compared to

pre-monsoon, which shows the effect of monsoon recharge.

An average rise of about 2 m is observed over the pre-monsoon water levels in the study

area.

Figure 3-3 showing Drainage Pattern of the area



3.3 Land Environment

The term land use involves the management and modification of natural environment or

wilderness into built environment such as settlements and semi-natural habitats. To study

land use and land cover of the study area, satellite imagery by IRS–Resourcesat-2 for

October 2017 was procured from NRSC, Hyderabad

Methodology adopted for Satellite Imagery Interpretation

The methodology adopted for satellite imagery interpretation is discussed below:

Satellite data of IRS Resourcesat-2 sensor is geometrically corrected and enhanced

using principal component method and nearest Neighborhood re-sampling

technique.

Preparation of basic themes like layout map, transport & settlement map and from

the satellite image by visual interpretation.

Essential maps (related to natural resources) like Land use/Land cover map are

prepared by visual interpretation of the satellite imagery. Visual interpretation is

carried out based on the image characteristics like tone, size, shape, pattern, texture,

location, association, background etc. in conjunction with existing maps/ literature.

Preliminary quality check and necessary corrections are carried out for all the maps

prepared.

Maps prepared are converted into soft copy by digitization of contours and

drainages. In that process editing, labeling, mosaicing, quality checking, data

integration etc., are done, finally land use areas are measured in square Kilometers.

Land use Land Use and Land Cover for the Study Area

False Colour Composite (FCC) of satellite imagery dated IRS–Resourcesat-2 dated October

2017 is shown in Figure 3.4. The supervised classification of the satellite image for land use

and land cover is given in Table 3.1. The land use and land cover for the study area by the

satellite imagery interpretation is given in Figure 3.4 and Landuse map is given in Figure

3.4 Meteorology – Climate and Long-Term Meteorology

The meteorological parameters play a vital role in transport and diffusion of pollutants in

the atmosphere. The collection and analysis of meteorological data, therefore, is an

essential component of environmental impact assessment studies. The long term and

short-term impact assessment could be made through utilization and interpretation of

meteorological data collected over long and short periods, respectively.

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. Climatological data for proposed site was

obtained from Surat IMD Station, which located about 60 km from the CETP plant of ETL

and the same is discussed in following:

3.4.1 Climatological Data for Surat IMD Station

A. Climate and Seasons

Ankleshwar has a tropical savanna climate, moderated strongly by the Arabian Sea. The

summer begins in early March and lasts until June. April and May are the hottest months,

the average maximum temperature being 41.5°C. Monsoon begins in late June and the area

receives about 1196 millimetres of rain annually. October and November see the retreat of

the monsoon and a return of high temperatures until late November. Winter starts in

December and ends in late February, with lowest temperatures of around 10.9°C.

B. Temperature

Table 3.2 gives the temperatures at IMD station Surat. April is the hottest month in the year

with highest temperatures of 41.50C, and lowest temperatures of 10.90C. The heat in the

summer season is intense. There is some drop in the day temperature with the onset of

monsoon rains by about mid-June and there is appreciable drop in the mean daily

maximum temperature and the weather becomes cooler only after end of October. January

is generally the coldest months with the highest temperature at 350C and the lowest

temperature at 10.90C, respectively.

3.4.2 Micro Meteorological Data for the Site

Micrometeorology data changes after a few kilometers due to changes in local topography.

Thus, IMD data for the Surat may not be precisely applicable to the CETP of ETL, which is

located at a distance of nearly 65 km. Furthermore, IMD data recorded only at 8:30 a.m.

and 5:30 p.m. for only eight wind directions with wind speeds over widely spaced ranges is

not of much use in dispersion modelling. Because of these limitations, micrometeorological

data was collected near site round the clock.

The site-specific meteorological data collected during the study period is presented in

Table 3.6 for pre-monsoon season.

3.5 Ambient Air Quality

The prime objective of the ambient air quality monitoring is to evaluate the baseline air

quality of the area, which is essential to predict impact of existing plant and operation of

plant after expansion. During the study period, ambient air quality monitoring was carried

out in the study area. This section describes the selection of sampling locations for air

quality monitoring, methodology adopted for sampling, analytical techniques and

frequency of sampling.



3.5.1 Ambient Air Quality Sampling Period

CETP of Enviro Technology Limited (ETL), Ankleshwar is located within 2.7 km NNW side

3.7 Traffic Study in the Study Area

The ETL plant is located nearer to Vadodara to Surat National Highway-8. During the study

period traffic survey was carried on the Vadodara-Surat National Highway-8 to compute

Average Daily Traffic (ADT). During the traffic survey different types of vehicles plying on

the NH -8 were counted during lean and peak hours on the both carriage ways, namely

Vadodara to Surat and Surat to Vadodara directions.

Capacity of NH -8: Vadodara to Surat National Highway-8 is four lane divided carriage way

with paved shoulders. As per IRC: 64-1990, capacity of 1.5 m hard shoulder four lane dual

carriage way is 80000 PCUs/day.

Traffic Survey on the Vadodara to Surat National Highway-8

Vehicles ply on the Vadodara to Surat National Highway-8 are passenger cars, busses,

double Axel and multi Axel trucks, two wheelers, three wheelers Auto (Goods & Passenger)

etc. Traffic survey carried On the NH -8, peak traffic is from 8.00 AM to 11.00 AM and 5 PM

to 9 PM, while moderate traffic is observed 11.00 AM to 5.00 PM and 9.00 PM to 8.AM.

Traffic counted on the NH 8 during study was converted to passenger car unit (PCU) as per

3.8 Water Environment

3.8.1 Surface Water Resources

Narmada is perennial river, which flow at distance of around 7 km in north direction from

the CETP plant. Other non-perennial water streams flow in the study area are Amravati

Nadi, Amla Khadi, Kondhki Khadi, etc. which carry runoff during rains.

3.8.2 Ground Water Resources

The geology of the area with vast area affected by inherent/coastal salinity, presents a

complex hydrogeological pattern. The hard rocks, the semi-consolidated Cretaceous, and

Tertiary formations and unconsolidated alluvial deposits, all comprise multi – aquifer

systems thereby presenting unconfined as well as confined groundwater conditions in the

area. Groundwater occurs under unconfined conditions in the limestone and sandstone

aquifers of Bagh beds. Occurrence and movement of groundwater is restricted mainly to

the fractures and joints in the limestones and sandstones.



The Deccan Trap have given rise to multi-layered stratified aquifers. Each individual flow

comprises two distinct units, namely the upper vesicular basalt and the lower massive

basalt. The massive basalt is hard and compact with primary porosity but the vesicular

basalts exhibit porosity. The movement of groundwater is therefore controlled by the

secondary porosity developed by the presence of fractures and joints. The paleo

weathering which is invariably observed at depth near the top of every flow, has given rise

to good aquifers at depth. The yield of the dug wells in Deccan traps, which range in depth

from 5 to 25m bgl, sustain pumping from 1/2 hour to 10 hours with discharge varying from

200 to 1200 litre per minute (LPM) for drawdown of 4 to 7 m. Bore well tapping deeper

zones down to 150m below ground level(bgl), have yielded 100 to 600 LPM for a

drawdown of 6 to 15m.

The sandstone are the main aquifers in the tertiary formations but the limestone also yield

significant quantities of groundwater. The alluvium formations in the western most part of

the area do not constitute potential aquifers on account of inferior quality of water.

3.8.3 Depth to Water Level

In the study area, depth to water level ranges 15 to 30 m bgl. Shallow water level i.e. less

than 5 m bgl is observed along the Narmada River. Post monsoon water level as shown in

the map for the period reveals that water levels in general area shallower as compared to

pre-monsoon, which shows the effect of monsoon recharge.

An average rise of about 2 m is observed over the pre-monsoon water levels in the study

area.

3.9 Soil Environment

To determine the exact impacts of any proposed project on soils, it is very essential to

determine the existing status of soil quality and existing stress through a study of soil

quality assessment. Considering this, surface soil (0- 30 cm) samples were collected from 8

different specified locations within the study area of the plant site. Standard procedures

were followed for the sampling and analysis of physico-chemical parameters.

To understand the soil characteristics 8 locations in the study area were selected for soil

sampling. The soil sampling locations are given in Table 3.20 and shown in Figure 3.14.

3.10 Biological Environment

Biological diversity comprises the variability of genus, species and ecosystems and is very

crucial for maintaining the basic processes on which the life depends. Broadly it can be

divided into two types i.e. the floral diversity and faunal diversity. Conservation of the

biodiversity is essential for the sustainable development as it not only provides the food,

fodder and medicine but also contribute in improvement of essential environmental

attributes like air, water, soil, etc. and aquatic ecosystems have been studied to understand

the biological environment. During the study period, ecological and biodiversity studies

were carried to study to evaluate floral and faunal composition of the study area.

3.10.1 Methodology for Biological Study

Detailed survey was conducted within 10 km radius study area. Primary data on floral and

faunal composition was recorded during site visits and secondary data was collected from

the Forest department and from relevant published literature. Inventory of flora and fauna

has been prepared on the basis of collected data.

3.10.3 Flora of the Buffer Study Area (Terrestrial Vegetation)

Buffer zone of the proposed project is mainly GIDC area and Ankleshwar town, agricultural

land, water bodies like Narmada River in the north side and GIDC pond as lower land of the

area. The flora of buffer zone comprises of Acacia nilotica (Babool), Mango, Tamarindus

indica (Imli), Terminalia tomentosa, Anogeissus latifolia (Dhautha) etc.

a) Dry Teak Forest (5A/C1b): This type is dry deciduous forest with Teak (Tectona

grandis) usually forming the major proportion of the crop on shallow porous or stiff

clayey soils of the districts.

b) Southern Dry Mixed Deciduous Forest (5A/C3): The percentage of Teak in this

forest type is very low and the dry deciduous species dominate. Thorny plants occur

and grasses are conspicuous. The most characteristic tree is Anogeissus latifolia

along with Terminalia tomentosa.

c) Dry Deciduous Scrub (5/DS1): This forest type is characterized by shrubby

growth of 3 to 6 m high including some tree species. Thin grass occurs throughout.

Important species are Acacia leucophloea, Salvadora oleoides, Holoptelea integrifolia,

etc.

d) Babul Forest (5/E3): The forest is dominated by the presence of one species Acacia

nilotica which is gregarious in habit and forms a dense cover.

4 Anticipated Environmental Impacts & Mitigation Measures

4.1 Introduction

This chapter discusses identification and appraisal of various environmental impacts due to

the Industrial Estates. Generally, the environmental impacts can be categorized as direct,

indirect and cumulative. Direct impact occurs through direct interaction of an activity with an

environmental, social or economic component.

Indirect impact on the environment is those which are not a direct result of the project often

produced away from the impact pathway. As a project in the same vicinity of other project than

impacts occur when the incremental impact of the project is combined with the cumulative

effect of other past, present and future projects.

The development, construction and functional phase of the project comprise various activities,

each of which may have some impact on physical, ecological and socio-economic environment.

Various impacts during the development, construction and operation phase on the

environmental parameters have been studied to estimate the impact on environment and

minimizing the adverse impact and thereafter enhance the beneficial impacts on environment

quality both during pre and post project. Suitable approach and methodology was adopted to

ascertain likely impacts both during design and construction and operation stage.

Valued environmental components (VECs) were identified and Impacts were evaluated using

engineering judgment and comparing with best management practices. The impacts during the

construction phase will be temporary in nature for a short construction period.

4.2 Impact Matrix

Various activities from the CETP project are likely to have some impact on the environmental

constituents during its construction as well as operational phase. The matrix method has been

adopted for the identification and evaluation of the environmental impacts. The method

involves identification of the interaction between project activities and environmental

characteristics.

The impact assessment matrix given in Table 4.1 reveals the impact associated with each

activity of the project on various environmental parameters during construction and function

phase respectively before any mitigation measures are implanted. Environmental impacts



have been identified based on an assessment of environmental aspects associated with the

project.

4.3 Air Environment

4.3.1 Construction Phase

Impacts

Due to the capability of the ambient air to return to its original form once activities that

generate air emissions are stopped, impacts on the air environment are necessarily transient

and temporary owing to the time bound nature of construction work.

A number of sources in construction phase that cause potential impacts on air quality, which

include:

• Dust and air emission particularly due to the excavation, construction and movement of

vehicles resulting in air pollution.

• Dust and other exhaust atmospheric emissions generated by vehicle movement,

concrete mixing machinery, concrete conveyers, bucket conveyers, air bowers.

• Particulate emission due to machinery and instrument operation for cleaning and

construction works.

• Fumes and gases near the work area due to welding activities.

• Emission due to excavation, cutting, heating, welding and vehicle movement.

• Generation of fumes and exhaust gases.

• Dust emission due to removal of scrap materials, remaining and waste construction

materials, construction machinery, dismantling and removal of temporary structures,

site cleaning and disposal of these materials.

Mitigation Measures

Mitigation measures for air quality impacts during construction phase are:

• Periodical checking of vehicles and construction machinery to ensure compliance of

emission standards

• Attenuation of pollution /protection of receptor through greenbelt/green cover.

• Ensure periodical washing of construction equipment and transport vehicles to prevent

accumulated dust.

4.3.2 Operation Phase

Impacts

• Being a project of Common Effluent Treatment Plant there will not be any need of

combustion process except occasional operation of DG set in case of failure of power.

Hence there will not be any regular and continuous point source of flue gas emission.

However, because of movement of tankers for receiving effluent there will be minor

impact on ambient air quality.



• Considering the type of industrial effluent to be received the chances of odour nuisance

of chemicals will not be likely to be there. But because operation of biological treatment

plant and sludge drying process to certain extent there may be chance of odour

nuisance.

Mitigation Measures

Mitigation measures for air quality during operation phase are:

• Attenuation of pollution/protection of receptor through greenbelt/green cover.

• The generators would be provided with a stack of proper height (as per Environment

(P) Rules, 1986, item 96) for the proper dispersal of pollutants emitted from the stack.

• Dilution of odorant, odor counter action or neutralize, odor masking or blanketing

• Regular monitoring of air polluting concentrations

• Control vehicle speed on sight.

• DG Sets will be operated during power failure only.

• Aromatic plants shall be planted in the proposed green belt area in order to control

odor related problems.



During the construction phase of project, noise will be generated from the various

sources. Some major sources of noise generation at project site are listed here under:

• Generation of noise during movement of vehicles carrying materials, loading and

unloading activities.

• Generation of noise from excavation machines, concrete mixer and other construction

machines,

• Generation of noise during the operation of D.G. Set

• Generation of noise during concreting, hammering, etc.

Mitigation Measures

• Provision of Personal Protective equipment (PPE) such as muffles/plugs etc. to the

workers.

• Acoustic enclosures to be provided for compressors for drills and rock cutter.

• All construction equipment shall be fitted with noise control measures.

• Servicing of all construction vehicles and machinery to be done regularly and during

routine servicing operation, the effectiveness of exhaust silencers will be checked and if

found defective to be replaced.

• Vehicle for bringing construction material at site shall conform to the noise emission

standards and to be operated during non-peak hour



• Construction work will be carried out during day time only.

• Ambient noise level monitoring shall be conducted at suitable locations at periodic

intervals during construction phase to conform to the stipulated standards during both

day and night time. Data shall be reviewed and analyzed by the project manager for

adhering to any strict measures


Impacts

During the operation phase, the sources of noise shall be equipments such as waste

treatment machinery, pumps, aerators, agitator, blowers& Diesel Generator Sets.

Mitigation Measures

• Noise limit for diesel generator sets (up to 1000 KVA) manufactured on or after the 1st

July, 2004 is given as: “The maximum permissible sound pressure level for new diesel

generator (DG) sets with rated capacity up to 1000 KVA, manufactured on or after the

1st July, 2004 shall be 75 dB(A) at 1 m from the enclosure surface. The diesel generator

sets should be provided with integral acoustic enclosure at the manufacturing stage

• Use of suitable muffler systems/enclosures/sound-proof glass paneling on heavy

equipment/pumps/blowers

• DG set for backup power to be provided with adequate acoustic enclosure and to be

fitted with muffler to reduce the noise in adherence with the regulatory equipment.

• The noise producing machinery will be placed in acoustic enclosures/acoustic rooms to

reduce the noise levels.

• Workers working near noisy area shall be provided with ear plugs.

• Usage of well-maintained construction equipment meeting the regulatory standards

• Periodic maintenance of equipments/replacing whenever necessary/lubrication of

rotating parts, etc.

• To have the provisions of noise barriers in form of dense green belt around the

periphery and particularly facing residential area. Shrubs can reduce noise by about

five to ten decibels-or about 50 percent as perceived by the human ear, (According to

the USDA & National Agro Forestry Center). Some Examples include Neem, Mango,

Tamarind, Gulmohar, Peepal, Ashoka.

4.5 Water Environment


Impacts

• Surface water quality is likely to be affected due to soil erosion during first rain and

generation of wastewater mainly from construction labor camp.



• Surface runoff from project Site, oil/fuel and waste spills. Improper debris disposal.

• The wastewater produced from labour colony may be a concern for the public health.

• Runoff related to unpaved and excavated areas during the rain shower.

• Run off related to area where lubricant, fuel and other materials are stored, used and

disposed off.

• Ground water quality would be polluted by debris, soil excavation and waste

generation. During construction and operation phase no ground water will be

excavated so, impact on the ground water hydrology will be insignificant.

Mitigation Measures

• During the construction phase, the modular septic tanks will be provided.

• Excavation during dry season and management of excavated soils.

• Clearing all debris from site as soon as construction is over.

• Care will be taken to securely store the excavated material and to reuse it as early as

possible in construction or for land filling during landscaping.

• Hazardous chemicals as waste Oil will be handled properly.

• Storm water drainage system to collect surface runoff.

• Exposed stockpiles should be covered with tarpaulin or impervious sheet before a

rainstorm occur.


Impacts

• Possibility of contamination of the ground water system due to storing of oily wastes.

• Positive impact in terms of utilization of treated water for horticulture & agricultural

purpose to meet the eco-friendly system.

Mitigation Measures

• Storing of oily wastes in lagoons should be minimized in order to avoid possible

contamination of the ground water system

• The treated effluent from CETP will be recycled and reused to the maximum extent.

• Domestic wastewater from industrial areas and from office/canteen will be treated

along with industrial effluent stream

• CETP will be constructed with strong foundation and water proof strong RCC work to

avoid any seepage and with enough free paces to avoid spillage.

• The heterogeneous complex character of different industries with wide spectrum of

refractive pollutants makes it difficult to meet the stipulated standards all the time.

Moreover, at present, the discharge standard is highly relaxed with BOD 30mg/l and

COD 250 mg/l, whereas TDS, turbidity and colour intensity are in a much relaxed stage.

The proposed CETP will meet the stringent parameter of BOD (10 mg/l) and COD (150



mg/l), in addition to make the treated water highly transparent bringing down the TDS

level much below, while successfully dealing with de-colorization phenomenon.

• The partially treated and untreated industrial effluent is mandatorily passed through

CETP. Thus it offers double safety in order to meet the stringent norms.

• CETP will be constructed with strong foundation and water proof strong RCC work to

avoid any seepage and with enough free pace to avoid spillage.

• Monitoring of ground waters will be done regularly.


Impact of any project on Land environment can be because of air pollution, Water (effluent)

and solid wastes (hazardous). Impact can be direct or indirect. It can be beneficial or

harmful. Impact can be at construction &operational stage.


The project site is primarily dominated by undergrowth and unwanted bushes. Soil will be

excavated at project site for foundations of industrial & other development.

Impacts

• There will be change in land use pattern.

• Overburden and construction waste, if not properly stacked, may pollute the soil

• The top soil will be stripped from constructional areas and stockpiled for later reuse in

landscaping.

• To ensure against any chances of soil pollution, it is imperative to establish a well-

planned solid waste collection system covering all areas of the project site

Mitigation Measures

• The project site is an open area without vegetation or human activity and is allotted for

the development of CETP; therefore, there will not be any impact on the present land

use pattern of the area.

• The overburden and construction waste will be reused as early as possible in the

construction and for land filling during landscaping of project site.

• Proper drainage system shall be provided to deal with the storm water in case of rain.


Impacts

• Hazardous chemical sludge produced during the wastewater treatment such as

chemical sludge from waste water treatment from CETP, leachate, used spent oil &

empty container and barrels may contaminate the soil if not handled properly.



Mitigation Measures

• Hazardous chemical sludge will be sent to TSDF site. i.e. M/s. Bharuch Enviro

Infrastructure Ltd. (BEIL), Ankleshwar.

• Hazardous chemical sludge produced during the wastewater treatment will be handled

in decanter and disposed to authorized Solid Waste Management Facility and will have

no impact.

• Treated effluent generated will be sent to FETP operated by M/s. Narmada Clean

Technology Ltd. (NCTL), Ankleshwar for further treatment and disposal to deep sea

• Primary sludge in some of the cases may contain some toxic elements such as arsenic,

cadmium, nickel etc. but the primary sludge is reduced by the way of segregation of the

major quantum of bio-sludge going to be generated. The fewer quantum of generation

of hazardous waste & application of decanters will help the CETP operators for its

direct disposal at TSDF site located at Ankleshwar.

• Precaution should be taken for all liquid and solid waste during storage and transport

so that soils around the site and within 10 Km radius are not contaminated

• Record of sludge disposal shall be kept as per Hazardous Waste (Management, Handling

and Trans-boundary) Rules, 2016.

4.7 Ecological Environment

There is no loss of forest land due to the construction of CETP. No tree felling is involved, as

the site is devoid of vegetation. Birds and other domesticated biodiversity observed near the

project site are common and already adapted to thrive in human - colonized habitats. The

project will not have any major negative ecological impact. There is no forest near the project

site and therefore there will be no effect on the ecology of the area.

Impacts

• The noise will be produced during construction activity.

Mitigation Measures

• Increased employee awareness through providing training

• The construction activity will be carried out during day time only. The vehicles will be

maintained in good condition to minimize the noise due to traffic.


Impacts



• Final Disposal of treated effluents, after insufficient treatment in CETP may create

impacts on ecology and surroundings due to its use by farmers

• Accidental discharge of waste water may create impact on surrounding ecology if not

handled properly.

Mitigation Measures

• CETP will have beneficial effect on the environment due to reduction in pollution

• Green belt/ plantation will be developed around the CETP

• No biologically sensitive area is present within 10 km radial area

• Acoustic enclosure shall be provided to DG set to reduce the noise intensity

• There is no ecologically important area (e.g. National Park, Sanctuary) in the study area

so impact on such areas is not expected.

4.8 Socio Economic Environment

a. Impact on Population Composition

The impact of the proposed project on population composition will be either nil or negligible

as only few skilled and managerial staff will be recruited from outside and the rest will be

recruited locally.

b. Impact on Employment Generation

The proposed project will provide an employment opportunity which includes both skilled

workers and unskilled workers. During Construction phase the labours and workers will be

hired from nearby villages. During operation phase, total no of employee would be around

50. This will create positive impact of the proposed CETP project.

c. Impact on Health

The proposed effluent plant will certainly be blessings for the people in the neighborhood

and the intensity of various diseases is expected to come down appreciably, when the plant

operates effectively. Hence, the impact of the proposed CETP project will be positive and

needs to be welcomed by all in the study area.

d. Impact on Consumption Pattern

Increased household income will certainly enhance the consumption pattern of few selected

households who would be benefitted by getting employed in the above project directly or

indirectly. This is a positive impact of the proposed project which is directly related to

employment generation caused by the proposed project.

e. Impact on utilities

Utilities include supply of water, electricity, gas and sewage facilities. It is likely that the

residents in the neighborhood will not face any bottleneck in accessing utility services such

as water supply, electricity, gas and sewage facilities due to the upcoming project in the area.

Hence, CETP project will hardly make any impact on existing utilities due to construction and

operation of the project.



f. Impact on Historical, Archeological and Architectural Sites

There are no historical or archeological monuments of significance within the study area.

Hence, no negative impact is anticipated in this regard.

4.9 Solid Waste Management

Impacts

During construction phase excavated earth will be used for backfilling and leveling of project

site. The topsoil will be preserved separately and reused for landscaping. The construction

wastes are largely scraps, aggregates and other construction material rejects. While no

health hazard is expected from such wastes, unplanned disposal can cause safety concerns.

During operation phase, biodegradable solid wastes such as waste vegetables, foods and no

biodegradable solid wastes viz. metals, papers, cartons, plastics, glass etc. are likely to be

generated. Such wastes may include hazardous wastes also, and unless treated or disposed

adequately can cause health and environmental hazards. Especially with a high groundwater

table, it is extremely important to avoid any soil contamination that may ultimately leach into

the groundwater reserves of the area. However, an integrated waste management plan in

accordance to all applicable regulations and guidelines is proposed to ensure against any

such incidence.

Mitigation Measures

To ensure against any nuisance caused by improper disposal of wastes, it is proposed to

identify waste collection areas within the site that will be regularly cleared. Recyclable

wastes will be sold off to scrap dealers and recyclers, while inert wastes will be made

available for filling and leveling of low lying areas. Hazardous wastes will be disposed off as

per the provisions of the Hazardous Wastes (Management, Handling and Trans-Boundary

Movement) Rules, 2016.

Waste oil and batteries will be disposed through sale to authorized recyclers and buy back

arrangements respectively. Inert wastes will be transported to the waste dump site. CFLs

shall be stored in the premises until ‘Lamp Recycling Units’ are set up that will receive and

recycle the bulbs in an environmentally sound manner. Storage shall be in a cemented and

covered area.

All hazardous wastes will be stored and disposed as per the Hazardous Wastes

(Management, Handling and Trans-Boundary Movement) Rules, 2016. All movements of the

hazardous waste shall be in accordance to the Manifest system in the said notification. The

wastes shall be disposed at the authorized TSDF site at Ankleshwar. Care will be taken such

that the collection vehicles are well maintained and equipped with air and noise pollution

control mechanism. During transportation of waste, it will be covered to avoid littering.



4.10 Infrastructural Development

The increasing infrastructural activity will boost the commercial and economic status of the

locality. The CETP facility will be helpful to further boost the industrial development

especially small scale industries so that large number of local people will be benefitted.

4.11 Public Health

• Temporary hutment for the construction workers will be provided with basic amenities

like low cost sanitation facilities, first aid, safe drinking water supply and personal

protective equipment etc. The workers will be provided the medical assistance whenever

required.

• The workers will be provided regular medical check-up camps and hospital facility.

• The workers will be provided with skill development training and training in risk

assessment and disaster management.

• Adequate mitigation measures will be ensured to reduce odor emissions and disease

from proposed site to eliminate the nuisance of effluents/sewage.

4.12 Transportation and Communication

The CETP site is very well connected by transport and communication facility and will not

cause any additional burden and impact on the environment.

4.13 Summary of potential impacts and mitigation measures during construction

and operation phase

The potential impacts during construction and operational stage along with mitigation

measures are presented in Table 4.2 and 4.3 respectively.

5 Analysis of Alternatives

This chapter discusses the various alternatives considered in developing the project. This

chapter also discusses the criteria on the basis of which a site is selected.

ETL is operating a Common Effluent Treatment Plant (CETP) on BOO (Build Own Operate)

basis since 1997 at Ankleshwar Industrial Estate & have implemented EMS standard ISO

14001 with the initial capacity of 1500 m3/day industrial effluent to give the service to small

scale industries. Later on, in 2004 the capacity was enhanced to 1800 m3/d industrial

effluent.

Based on the day today experience of operating the Common Effluent Treatment Plant ETL

proposes to modify / modernise the treatment technology plans to utilize the modified

quantity of sewage and GIDC water mixed with 3500 m3/day industrial wastewater

treatment in the same premises.

The proposed site of CETP is selected as per the guidelines of MoEF& CC. The treatment

technology and treatment Scheme for the effluents from units located in GIDC Ankleshwar

has been finalized on the basis of detail data collection on quality and quantity of the effluent

produced by the industries & CETP has been setup in GIDC. Analysis has been carried out for

the selected site only.

5.1 Site Selection

The following guiding factors have been considered while selecting the site for the

establishment of CETP.

1. The land falls in the Industrial Zone and the proposed project site is earmarked for CETP.

2. The additional member industries are located within the industrial area. The transport of

effluent by using rubber lined tankers shall be done on existing route plan.

5.2 Alternatives for Site

The proposed expansion with modernization of the CETP plant of ETL will be located on the

land available within the existing CETP plant of ETL in GIDC Industrial Notified Area at

Ankleshwar. As necessary infrastructure, skill and land are available for proposed expansion

of the existing plant, alternative site is not required to considered.



6 Environmental Monitoring Programme

6.1 Introduction The purpose of the monitoring program is to ensure that the specified mitigation measures

defined in the Environment Management Plan (EMP) are compiled and leads to the desired

benefits for the target area and its population. To ensure the effective implementation of the

EMP and gauge the efficiency of the mitigation measures, monitoring shall be undertaken

both during the construction and operation phases of the project. Monitoring of various

environmental parameters will be carried out on a regular basis to ascertain the following:

• State of pollution within the project site and in its vicinity.

• Generate data for predictive or corrective purpose in respect of pollution.

• Examine the efficiency of pollution control system adopted at the site.

• To assess environmental impacts.

The primary aim of monitoring is to provide information that will aid impact management,

and secondarily, to achieve a better understanding of cause-effect relationships and to

improve EIA prediction and mitigation methods. Both the immediate and long-term benefits

from undertaking monitoring as part of EIA are widely recognized.

Monitoring will be used to:

• Measure the impacts that occur during project construction and operation;

• Check their compliance with agreed conditions and standards;

• Facilitate impact management, e.g. by warning of unanticipated impacts; and determine

the accuracy of impact predictions and the effectiveness of mitigation measures.

Monitoring will be carried out at the site as per the norms of CPCB. Environmental

Monitoring Programme conducted will be for various environmental components as per

conditions stipulated in Environmental Clearance Letter issued by MOEF & CC && Consent to

Operate issued by SPCB. Six monthly compliance reports will be submitted on regular basis,

to MoEF& CC, New Delhi on 1st of June & 1st of December.

6.2 Areas of concern

The best way to ensure that the new CETP facility operates in a consistent and

environmentally sound manner is to provide for a rigorous monitoring programme based on

the guidelines of CPCB and MoEF&CC. The objective of this programme is to comply with

inlet effluent norms and standards of treated effluent.



To keep the record of pollution load from each industry, the member industry will monitor

the important physico-chemical parameters in their effluents on daily basis. The records of

data on flow rate and daily quantity of effluent from member industries will also be

maintained by concerned industry on daily basis. The data will be provided to CETP operator

for management of CETP. Treatment efficiency programme for CETP will be established

within the treatment plant.

The physico-chemical monitoring of selected parameters of influent and outgoing effluent at

CETP will be maintained on daily basis. Online continuous flow measurement will also be

taken at the outlet of CETP.

Therefore, from the monitoring point of view, the important parameters are quality and flow

of effluent from member industries and its compliance to major effluent quality parameters,

quality of inlet effluent to CETP and outlet treated effluent from CETP and its compliance to

the stipulated standards, surface water and groundwater quality in the buffer zone, air

quality, noise, etc. Suggested monitoring parameters and programmes are described in the

subsequent sections.

Well-equipped water and wastewater testing laboratory will be established in the project

premises.

6.3 Performance Indicators (PIs)

The physical, biological and social components are of particular significance to the project is

as listed below:

• Air quality

• Water quality

• Noise levels

• Solid waste management

• Plantation success / survival rate

Flora

Soil

To ensure the effective implementation of the mitigation measures and environmental

management during construction and operation phases of project, it is essential that an

effective Environmental Monitoring Plan be designed and followed as given in Table 6.1.

6.3.1 Ambient Air Quality (AAQ) Monitoring

Ambient air quality parameters recommended for monitoring with regard to constructional

activities are PM, CO, SO2, NO2. Monitoring shall be carried out twice a week for one month in

each season during construction phase in accordance to the National Ambient Air Quantity



Standards 2009. The locations with the pollution parameters to be monitored are detailed

out in the Environmental Monitoring Plan (Table 6.1).

6.3.2 Noise Level Monitoring

The measurements of noise levels will be carried out at all designated locations in

accordance to the Ambient Noise Standards formulated by MoEF as given. Noise level will be

monitored on twenty-four hourly bases. Noise should be recorded at “A” weighted frequency

using a slow time response mode of the measuring instrument. The measurement location,

duration and the noise pollution parameters to be monitored are detailed in the

Environmental Monitoring Plan (Table 6.1).

6.3.3 Success of Vegetation

To ensure the proper maintenance and monitoring of the proposed plantation activities, a

regular survey of the survival rate of the planted trees is being proposed up to a period of 2

years from the start of operation of the project.

6.4 Summary of Environmental Monitoring Programme

maintenances will be provided.

Personal Protective Equipments will be provided to each of the individuals employed in

the CETP. PPEs such as Hand gloves, Mask, Googles, Safety Shows, Fire Apron, Safety Belt etc.

are provided.

A Fire Tender can be called for in case of emergency of Fire in the CETP.

6.8 Emergency Preparedness and Response System

The objective of is to address the three components by the company:

Establish and maintain the system to identify the potential for and the response to the

accidents and emergency situation in order to prevent environmental impact associated with

such situation.

To review and revise the implementation effectiveness after the incidental situation of

emergency situations.

Testing of emergency plan wherever feasible to know the effectiveness of the systems

evolved.

The organization will have defined and maintained system for dealing with environmental

incidents and potential emergency situations. The operating procedures and control include,

where appropriate consideration of:

Accidental discharge of effluent to land and water.

Accidental disposal of solid waste to land,

Specific environment and ecosystem effects from accidental releases.

The procedure takes into account incidents arising or likely to arise as consequences of:

Abnormal operating condition

Accidents and potential emergency situation

The company has developed emergency preparedness plan, which covers the potential for

disaster in the company in the worst case in the area.

The emphasis of such plan is placed upon ensuring that business services are least affected

due to the incidence, instead of disruption of the suppliers and distributors to customer is

least affected.

Safety of individual staff, property of the company and surrounding is also considered in the

emergency preparedness plan



The emergency preparedness plan consists of following:

Emergency organization and responsibilities

A list of key personnel

Details of emergency services

Internal and external communication plans

Actions to be taken in the event of different types of emergencies;

Information on hazardous materials including each material’s potential impact on the

environment

Training plans and testing for effectiveness.

It will be ensured that emergency preparedness plans are prepared and are maintained

in place and believes that even when the risk are low, the emergency preparedness plans

are still necessary as without it minor incidence can turn in to a major one.

Review and revise the implementation system after the incidence.

In case of a misses the organization will ensure that such potential accidents are recorded

and reviewed and not hidden away or forgotten. Such incidents indicate the area of risk,

which on other occasion may turn into an accident.

For every such misses the appropriate action will be taken, documents are amended,

people are trained to ensure that the operation is carried out as per the revised

procedure and such incidents are prevented.

The record of the accidents or near miss situation in the plant will be recorded &

maintained.

6.9 CETP Odour Control Plan

Considering the scope of the project under study (collection, treatment and disposal of wastewaters – industrial and domestic – being generated and likely to be generated by the industrial activities at Ankleshwar), the probability of odour generation and its manifestation is improbable.

Any place or process in which wastewater is collected, conveyed or treated has the potential to generate and release nuisance odors. However, most odor problems occur in the collection system, in primary treatment facilities and in solids handling facilities.

In most instances, the odors associated with collection systems and primary treatment facilities are generated as a result of an anaerobic or “septic” conditions. This condition occurs when oxygen transfer to the wastewater is limited. The anaerobic state (when the microbes present in the wastewater have no dissolved oxygen available for respiration) allows microbes known as “sulfate-reducing bacteria” to thrive. These bacteria utilize the sulfate ion (SO4-), that is naturally abundant in most waters, as an oxygen source for respiration. The byproduct of this activity is hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas. This byproduct has a low solubility in the wastewater and a strong, offensive, rotten-egg odor. Due to its low solubility in the wastewater, it gets released to the atmosphere.



There are typically other “organic” odorous compounds (the volatile organic compounds or VOCs), such as mercaptans and amines, that may be present in the wastewaters with organic strength, but H2S is the most prevalent compound.

Normally, the anaerobic microbial activity has to prevail for more than two hours, to enable formation and release of significant quantity of odor causing gases (predominantly H2S) and causing appreciable odour.

The available flow time will not facilitate appreciable septicity to develop during flow and, hence, the odourous gas formation will be insignificant.

Besides, gas dispersion vent pipes are provided at regular intervals along the sewer. This, helps in providing ventilation to the sewer system and prevents accumulation or concentration of any gases in the sewer system.

The effluent treatment process starts from collection (with compressed air agitation) which strips any non-condensible/volatile gases from the wastewater.

There is no such unit process in the effluent treatment plant, which may cause odourous gaseous formation or their concentrated release.

There are remote possibilities of presence of VOCs as organic constituents in the wastewater in quantities appreciable enough to affect detectable odour.

6.10 Environmental Policy

The Executives and Managers of the company have defined the Environmental Policy and

approved by Plant-Incharge. The company ensures that the policy is appropriate to the

company’s nature, scale and environmental impact of its activities for treating the effluent.

The policy mentions about monitoring of the system, continuous improvement, pollution

prevention and ensuring to comply with the relevant Regulations as per HSPCB water

consent and Hazardous waste consent condition, member units and surrounding residents,

7 Additional Studies

7.1 Public Consultation

The project area falls under notified Industrial zone of village-Ankleshwar. The public

hearing for the proposed project has been exempted.

7.2 Risk and Hazard

Risk is a probability that damage to life, health and / or the environment. Risk will occur as a

result of the hazard. Hazard is an inherent property of a substance, agent, and source of

energy or situation having potential of causing undesirable consequences.

The following two methods of hazard identification have been employed in the study:

• Identification of major hazards based on Manufacture, Storage, and Import of Hazardous

Chemicals Rules, 1989 amended 2000, Government of India.

• Primary Hazard Analysis.

The following are the various hazards considered during different phases of the project i.e.

construction and operation phase.

of chemicals. However, for further reduction in the chemical hazards, following measures

should be follow.

Safety Measures for Chemical Hazards:

• Development of safe working procedures.

• Reduction of number of workers exposed to hazards & duration and frequency of

exposure.

• Use of personal protective equipment.

• Regular environmental and medical monitoring.

Accident Hazards:

Different accident hazards associated with CETP construction and operation activities are

as follows:

• Fire hazards,

•Electrical hazards,

• Slips, Trips, and Falls at work, and

• Biological hazards.

7.2.1 Fire Hazards:

Accidental fires due to electrical short circuit represent minor hazards. Special precautions

must be taken for electrical fitting and appliances uses. Sources of ignition for fire hazards

are direct flames, Heat radiation, and Electric spark.



Safety Measures for Fire Hazards:

• Automatic fire detection system and control system should be provided.

• Emergency back-up power like D.G. Sets should be provided for the automatic systems.

• Matches, cigarettes, etc. should be prohibited.

supervision, there will be no any direct contact with chemicals.

• Provisions and use of suitable personal protective measures.

• Provision of adequate welfare and sanitation facilities as well as first-aid measures

considering the heavy contamination.

• Provision of separate eating facilities to avoid food poisoning.

• Effective arrangement for monitoring health of staff.

7.3 Fire Fighting System

• According to BOCW (Building & Other Construction Workers) ACT, NBC-2005, relevant

BIS standard like BIS-14489 and other related sets out the law on Construction site

general fire safety.

• The Statutory requires that a ‘responsible person’ must carry out, and keep up to date, a

risk assessment and implement appropriate measures to minimize the risk to life and

property from fire. The responsible person will usually be the main or principal

contractor in control of the site.

• You should identify sources of fuel and ignition and establish general fire precautions

including, means of escape, warning and fighting fire, based on your fire risk assessment.

• In occupied buildings such as offices, make sure the work does not interfere with existing

escape routes from the building, or any fire separation, alarms, dry risers, or sprinkler

systems.

Key Issues are:

• Risk assessment



• Means of escape

• Means of giving warning

• Means of fighting fire

• Construction of timber frame will require significant additional measures

7.4 Risk and Hazard Assessment

In most cases, conducting a risk assessment will be a relatively straightforward and simple

task that may be carried out by the responsible person, or a person they nominate, such as a

consultant.

There are five steps in carrying out a fire risk assessment:

1. Identify hazards: consider how a fire could start and what could burn;

2. People at risk: employees, contractors, visitors and anyone who is vulnerable e.g.

disabled;

3. Evaluation and action: consider the hazards and people identified in 1 and 2 and act to

remove and reduce risk to protect people and premises;

4. Record, plan and train: keep a record of the risks and action taken. Make a clear plan for

fire safety and ensure that people understand what they need to do in the event of a fire;

and

5. Review: your assessment regularly and check it takes account of any changes on site.

Means of escape

Key aspects to providing safe means of escape on construction sites include:

• Routes: your risk assessment should determine the escape routes required, which must be

kept available and unobstructed;

• Alternatives: well-separated alternative ways to ground level should be provided where

possible;

• Protection: routes can be protected by installing permanent fire separation and fire doors

as soon as possible;

• Assembly: make sure escape routes give access to a safe place where people can assemble

and be accounted for. On a small site the pavement outside may be adequate; and



• Signs: will be needed if people are not familiar with the escape routes. Lighting should be

provided for enclosed escape routes and emergency lighting may be required.

Means of giving warning

Set up a system to alert people on site. This may be temporary or permanent mains operated

fire alarm (tested regularly), a klaxon, an air horn or a whistle, depending on the size and

complexity of the site.

The warning needs to be distinctive, audible above other noise and recognizable by

everyone.

Means of fighting fire

Fire extinguishers should be located at identified fire points around the site. The

extinguishers should be appropriate to the nature of the potential fire:

• Wood, paper and cloth – water extinguisher;

• Flammable liquids – dry powder or foam extinguisher;

• Electrical – carbon dioxide (C02) extinguisher.

Nominated people should be trained in how to use extinguishers.

Process fire risks

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) and National Building Code sets out the law on

construction site general fire safety, including means of escape.

The CDM Regulations 2015 also impose duties including the requirement to prevent risk

from fire. The fire risk from site activities must be assessed and precautions taken to control:

• Combustible material – The quantity of combustible materials on site should be kept to

the minimum and all such materials safely stored and used.

• Ignition sources – action is needed to eliminate, reduce and control ignition sources on

site.

• Construction of timber frame buildings will require significant additional measures to those

outlined here. You should refer to the specific guidance listed in Resources, below.

A) Combustible Material



Many solids, liquids and gases can catch fire and burn. It only takes a source of ignition,

which may be a small flame or an electrical spark, together with air. Preventive actions that

can be taken include:

• Quantity: fire risk can be reduced by controlling the amount of combustible material in the

work area until it is needed;

• Flammability: it may be possible to specify materials that are less combustible. Remember

that when worked on, materials may become more easily ignited e.g. solids turned to dust

or crumb;

• Storage: combustible materials should ideally be stored outside buildings under

construction, especially volatile materials e.g. LPG. Internal storage must be planned and

located where it will not put workers at risk;

• Rubbish: good housekeeping and site tidiness are important to prevent fire and to ensure

that emergency routes do not become obstructed;

• Volatile flammable materials: extra precautions are needed for flammable liquids, gases

and oxygen cylinders especially when internally stored;

• Coverings and sheeting: protective coverings and scaffold sheeting may add to fire risk.

This can be reduced by use of flame retardant materials;

• Tanks and services: demolition projects can involve an increased risk of fire and explosion.

Dismantling of tank structures may cause ignition of flammable residues or disruption and

ignition of buried gas services.

• Ignition sources

• It is important that you take action to control ignition sources including:

•Hot work: all hot work generating heat, sparks or flame can cause a fire.

Precautions include:

• Clearing the area of combustible materials;

• Suitable fire extinguishers; and

• maintaining a careful watch throughout the work.

• A permit to work (PTW) system can help manage the risk on larger projects.



• Plant and equipment: select electrical and engine driven plant of suitable capacity to

prevent overheating. Fasten lamps to a solid backing and, if mounted on tripods, make sure

the tripod is stable. Electrical equipment in flammable atmospheres must be suitable for

the nature and extent of the flammable atmosphere;

• Smoking: bring the rules on smoking to the attention of all workers and visitors to the site

and enforce them;

• Electrical installations: should be of sufficient capacity for the intended use and designed,

installed, inspected and maintained by competent people;

A) Event Classification and Modes of Failure

Component failures are the initiating events for the failure scenarios, which can escalate to

consequences like fires, explosions and equipment damage. Eventual failures could be in the

form of small gasket leaks in a flange joint or guillotine failure of a pipeline or even rupture /

catastrophic failure of equipment. Major failure modes identified in this project are:

• Pipeline - small/large leaks;

• Storage tank - small/large leaks

B) Power Failure / Load Shedding

Operational difficulties may be experienced at CETP plant when there will be power failure.

Since, there is a provision made for DG sets for running plant during power failure, there will

not be significant effect on the treatment efficiency of the CETP.

Standby generator of total capacity of 2x1010 KVA will be provided during power failure or

load shedding period, which would reduce the chances of inadequate treatment of the

effluent.

Training programme for plant operation and maintenance activities have been included as

part of the project’s technical assistance programme.

7.5 Health & Safety Measures

During the operation of CETP and during handling chemicals, a practice of preventive and

protective maintenance will be adopted to take care of employee’s health. The various safety

equipments like breathing apparatus, gum boots, goggles and helmet will be provided to the

workers/operators. Besides, all the first aid, firefighting devices will also be inspected, tested

and maintained all the time in ready to use condition.

Health of all the employees in plant area will be regularly monitored by the physician. If any

abnormality is found, necessary treatment will be given from time to time. Necessary history



cards, records will be maintained which will be up‐dated from time to time. Some of the

safety measures proposed to be carried out to ensure prevention of occupational hazards is

delineated below.

• Safety equipments and fittings for handling of chemicals.

• Housekeeping of the plant as per prescribed norms. Floors, platforms, staircases,

passages will be kept free of any obstruction.

• All operations will be explained to the workers. They will be periodically trained on the

processes.

• Should impart safety training to the employees engaged.

• Only authorized persons will be allowed inside the plant.

• All instruments and safety devices will be checked and calibrated during installation and

at frequent intervals.

normal work in the concerned plan for a significant period of time, or

• Any combination of above effects.

7.6.2 Emergency

It could be defined as any situation which presents a threat of safety of persons or/and

property. It may require outside help also. Emergency due to operating conditions (small

fire, spill, failure of power, water, air etc.) and which can be locally handled by plant

personnel alone (without outside help) will be considered as emergency.

Objectives of the On-Site Emergency Plan

1. To define & assess emergencies, including risk & environment impact assessment.

2. To control & contain incidents.

3. To safeguard employees, visitors & other people in the vicinity.

4. To minimize damage to property &/or the environment.

5. To inform employees, the general public and the authorities about the hazards/ risk

assessed safeguard provided residual risk if any and the role to be played by them in the vent

of emergency.

6. To be ready for the mutual aid if need rises to help the neighboring unit. Normal

jurisdiction of an OEP (on-site emergency plan) will the own premises only but looking to the

time factor in the arriving the external help of off-side plan agency, the jurisdiction must be

extended outside to the extent possible in case of emergency occurring outside.

7. To inform authorities and mutual aid centers to come for help.

8. To affect rescue and treatment of causalities to count injured.

9. To identify and list any dead.



10. To inform and help relatives.

11. To secure the safe rehabilitation of affected area and to restore normalcy.

12. To provide authoritative information to the news media.

13. To preserve records, equipments, etc., and to organize investigation into the cause of the

emergency and preventive measure to stop its recurrence.

14. To ensure safely of the works before personnel re-enter and resume work.

15. To work out a plan with all provisions to handle emergencies and to provide for

emergency

preparedness and the periodical rehearsal of the plan.

In order to meet the above objectives, detailed procedure for handling On Site Emergency

has been prepared, which will intended to cover all foreseeable eventualities even those

leading to the evacuation of the site.

a) Major Emergency

Major Emergency could be defined as any situation which may affect several departments

within and/ or may cause serious injuries, loss of life, extensive damage to property of

serious disruption outside the work. It will require the use of outside resources to handle it

effectively.

Usually the result of a malfunction of the normal operating procedure, it may also be

participated by the intervention of an outside agency, such as severs electrical storm,

flooding, crashed aircraft or deliberate acts of arson or sabotage.

b) Disaster

It will a catastrophic situation in which the day to day patterns of life are, in many instances,

suddenly disrupted and people are plugged into helplessness, suffering and as a result need

protection, clothing, shelter, medical & social care and other necessities of life such as:

Disaster resulting from natural phenomena like earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, storm,

surges, cyclones, tropical storms, floods, landsides, forest fires and massive infect infestation.

Also, in this group, violent drought which will cause a creeping disaster leading to famine

disease and death must be included.

Second group includes disastrous events occasioned by man or by man’s impact upon the

environment, such as armed conflict, industrial accidents, fires, explosions and escape of

toxic gases or chemical substances, rivers, pollution, mining / deep excavations or other



structural collapse, air, sea, rail and road transport accident, aircraft crashes, collisions of

carrying inflammable liquids, oil spills at sea and dam failures.

c) Risk

The likelihood of an undesired event (i.e. accident, injury or death) occurring within a

specified period or under specified circumstances. It may be either a frequency or a

probability depending on the circumstances.

d) Hazard

Hazard is a physical situation which may cause human injury, damage to property or the

environmental or combination of these criteria.

7.6.3 Emergency Organization

No plan will succeed without effective emergency organization. Key personnel to combat

emergency should be nominated with specific responsibilities according to the set

procedures and making the best use of the resources available with different department and

to avoid confusion. Respective department’s key personnel are important part to combat

emergency as part of organization. Such key personnel include Incident controller, Site main

controller, Communication officer, messenger, Essential workers etc. Assembly point for non-

essential workmen, occupational health center, emergency control room, firefighting

arrangement, first aid arrangement and other arrangement and persons to manage them and

also important part of emergency organization. Other key personnel will be required to

provide advice to and implement the decisions made by the Site Main Controller (SMC) in the

light of information received on the developing situation at the emergency. Such key

personnel (i.e. Fire fighters, First-Aider, Emergency rescue, Communication officer,

messenger, security people, P&A officer etc.) will included from various department. All key

personnel will responded on instruction given by Site Main Controller / Incident Controller.

Their roles and responsibilities will mention bellow;

7.7 Hazard during Construction & Operation

Increased urban development and requirements for strict control of the quality of effluents

discharged into streams, rivers, estuaries and coastal water has led to the need to set up

individual wastewater/effluent treatment plant and common effluent treatment plants.

The wastewater treatment ranks of industrial occupations where on-the-job injuries are

frequent. The wastewater treatment plant operators are exposed to a variety of hazardous

chemical agents contained within the effluent and the reagents used in the water processing

or generated during the wastewater treatment which may cause poisoning and a number of

ailments in the operators.

The operators are also exposed to hazards related to work in confined spaces, which include

electric shocks, explosions, entanglement in moving machinery, etc.

Against natural calamities like floods, earthquakes, lightening, possible accidental hazards

Fire & explosion hazards − Electricity − Slips, trips and falls at work , chemical hazards,

biological hazards and ergonomic, psychological and organization factors and the preventive

measures required in common effluent treatment plants.

taken care.

Electrical safety in construction

The law says you must take precautions against the risk of death or injury from electricity.

Electrical equipment must be safe, and properly maintained. Only in exceptional

circumstances should work be carried out on live systems, and then only by a competent

authorized person.



• Electrical systems in buildings - Refurbishment work in buildings presents the greatest risk

and must be planned, managed and monitored to ensure that workers are not exposed to

risk from electricity.

• Overhead power lines - Any work near electric overhead power lines must be carefully

planned and carried out to avoid danger from accidental contact or close proximity to the

lines.

• Underground cables - Damage to underground electrical cables can cause fatal or severe

injury you must take precautions to avoid danger. These precautions include a safe system

of work based on planning, use of plans, cable locating devices and safe digging practices.

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

Always wear the proper gloves when working with acids. Neoprene and rubber gloves are

effective against most acids and bases. Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is also effective for most

acids. A rubber coated apron and goggles should also be worn. If splashing is likely to occur,

wear a face shield over the goggles. Always use corrosives in a chemical fume hood.

Checklist for PPE

• All workers should wear PPE to protect head, eye, hand and feet.

• Helmet, hand gloves, safety shoe and goggles Safety belt/safety harness for working at

height.

• First aid kit with medicine to be available at site.

7.8 Conclusion

Risk assessment should be carried out in order to identify the needs in handling these

hazards. Risk assessment shall include: Identifying the possible hazards The Receptors who

would be harmed because of the hazards Adequacy of the existing precautionary measures

Reviewing and revising the assessment from time to time Identifying the greater risk of

damage based on Recognize, Evaluate and Control. In evaluation we have to adopt both

Qualitative and Quantitative Analysis.

To adopt Japanese PDCA model this insists us to

Testing the electrical appliances regularly. After completion of risk assessment, following

findings can be used for reducing the risks.

Safe installation of electrical appliances as per standards.

• Use of safe and suitable equipments for the working environment

• Provision for safety devices for detecting faults

• Preventive maintenance by testing the equipments and visual inspection

• Safe working conditions considering underground power cables overhead power lines

These are the most common causes of non-fatal injuries at work but may cost workers

heavily. Slip and trip hazards can be reduced through good health and safety arrangements

of the workers/employers.

There should be adequate information on appropriate use of the safety equipments provided.

A good management system for health and safety shall include: planning for minimizing or

removing risks by identifying the risk areas organization setup with responsibilities to

ensure safe working conditions control on working practices and processes by record

keeping and maintenance to ensure good health and safety monitoring and reviewing the

reports regularly based on experience and improving the existing conditions. good working

practices by choosing suitable floor surfaces, lighting levels, provision for footwear,

removing obstructions, warn signs, etc.

Chemical hazards Sources of chemical hazards can be exposure to chemicals and toxic effects

of chemicals. Exposure to chemicals. The heaviest exposure to some chemicals often occurs

during industrial activities. The four main exposure routes where chemicals enter the body

are through inhalation (breathing), absorption (skin or eye), ingestion (swallowing, eating)

and Accidental.

Most of the chemicals in the workplace have the potential to be dispersed into the air as dust,

droplets or as gas or vapor or inhalation. The most important routes of exposure in the

workplace leading to systemic effects are inhalation and skin absorption. Also, ingestion is a

potential source through contaminated food or drink in the workplace. Toxic effects of

chemicals. The toxicity in chemicals may poison the body of the person exposed. The toxic

chemical exposure may lead to acute, chronic, reversible, irreversible, local, systematic and

synergism effect. The toxicity of chemicals can be classified as corrosive, irritant, sensitizer,

asphyxiant, carcinogen, mutagen, teratogen and fetotoxicant. To avoid these toxic risk

assessments should be carried out which involves identification of hazard based on

chemicals of concern, adverse effects, target populations, risk characterization, assessing,

exposure and estimating the risk.



Develop material safety data sheets (MSDS) for all the chemicals used in the workplace −

Ensure whether chemical products clearly indicate their harmful effects and provide

guidance on how to use the products as safely as possible − Instruct workers on labels and

MSDS − Workers should have the right to refuse to work with chemicals which does not

have safety information about the chemical To prevent, control or eliminate the risk – all

the workers are required to implement effective safety procedures for protection against

chemical hazards agreed jointly by employer and workers through − Regular inspections

with standard checklists for particular chemicals and chemical processes.

Substitution

The most effective way is to remove the chemical entirely and replace it with less

hazardous chemical, wherever possible. Similarly, dangerous processes can also be

substituted to avoid the production of toxic intermediates.

Engineering controls

In case, the chemical hazard cannot be removed from the workplace by substitution then

the best solution is to physically enclose the hazard to prevent it from coming into contact

with either workers or the environment. Dilute or local exhaust ventilation systems can be

used to remove contaminated air from the workplace.

Biological hazards: Exposure to wastewater may result in number of illnesses when

entered into the body. Some of these illnesses are: Gastroenteritis – Cramping stomach

pain, diarrhea and vomiting.

As the micro-organisms are inherent in wastewater they cannot be removed or eliminated.

However, exposure to wastewater can be minimized to avoid these biological hazards. The

following measures can be taken to reduce risk of infection and illness: Awareness on risks

through instructions, training and supervision use of personal protective equipment such

as water proof gloves, footwear, eye and respiratory protection, face visors, etc. workers

should be of 20 to 50 years age group and must not have asthma and tuberculosis provide

the workers with adequate welfare facilities such as clean water, soaps, disposable paper

towels, showers, etc. Inspection and maintenance of safety equipments provision for

adequate first aid facilities effective arrangements for monitoring health and safety.

Ergonomic and psychological hazards: These hazards can be raised due to stress during

work. Some of the problems which may lead to stress are: Boring job repetitive job too

little or too much work to do too little time too little or too much training for the job

selecting right person to fit into the task poor relationship with others bullying, racial or

sexual harassment inflexible work schedules poor physical working conditions lack of

communication and consultation lack of support for individuals to develop their skills lack



of control over work activities negative work culture. These hazards can be minimized by

following measures: clarity in defined objectives and responsibilities of an individual linked

to business objectives selection of appropriate person for the assigned tasks prioritizing

the jobs, training the individuals based on interpersonal skills and increasing the scope of

work for the trained increase the variety of tasks rearrange people between the jobs in

order not to get bored with the single task working in group to improve the performance

setting up of an effective system to prevent and stop harassments working in shifts to

ensure flexible working hours provision for regular health checkups provision for adequate

control measures opportunity to contribute individual ideas in planning and organizing

the jobs introducing clear business objectives, good communications and employee

involvement particularly during period of change any individual should be honest and

respect others support the individuals to develop their skills.

Hazardous air pollution Solvents in huge quantities are used in pharmaceutical, chemical,

dyes & dye intermediate units. The recovery and reuse of these solvents in such units is very

poor because of the indigenous technology, equipment adds to pollution load in CETP.

Especially in connection with high levels of fine particulates, noxious gases like methane, CO2,

SO2 and NOx can lead to respiratory diseases. The duration of exposure is decisive. Injurious

heavy metals (e.g., lead, mercury and cadmium) can enter the food chain and, hence, the

human organism by way of drinking water and vegetable and animal products. Climatic

changes such as warming and acidification of surface waters, forest depletion, etc., can occur

due to acid rain and/or the greenhouse effect of methane and CO2 and other trace gases can

have long-term detrimental effects on human health. Similarly, important are the effects of

climatic changes on agriculture and forestry (and thus on people’s standard of living), e.g.,

large-scale shifts of cultivation to other regions and/or deterioration of crop yields due to

climate change impacts.

In view of the above we have to have to avoid/mitigate the Risk and hazard both during

construction phase and operational phase of common Effluent treatment plant we have to

adopt 3E system which is basically

• Engineering Control- for sound engineering

• Education and training- To improve awareness

• Enforcement- to follow statute and also maintain discipline.



8 Project Benefits

8.1 Benefit of CETP

The rapid growth of industries over the decades in Ankleshwar area has been beneficial for

economic prosperity. This needs an imperative action on the conservation of natural

resources to protect the flora and fauna.

There was development in terms of establishment of new industries especially small-scale

industries without providing any infrastructure like CETP. Enviro Technology Limited

(ETL) proposes to establish Common Effluent Treatment Plant (CETP) on the site in

Ankleshwar, Gujarat that falls in the Industrial zone.

The advantage of CETP is mostly sought due to following benefits:

• Latest technology available

• Extra provision to upgrade up to 2.5 times

• Water reclamation and recycling

• Low treatment cost

• Encouragement to utilize the existing facility if intended

• The immediate effect will be reduction in the discharge of industrial effluents in the

adjoining river.

• This facility will also use domestic sewage in treatment process.

• The effluent discharge will comply with the guidelines given by GPCB, CPCB and MoEF&

CC and will not be harmful to the ecology and environment.

• Reduction in eutrophication of the nearby water bodies will make them suitable as the

habitat for the fish population, microorganisms, planktons, and other aquatic food web

organisms thus developing a sustainable ecosystem.

• The organic matter and nutrients removed in the form of biological sludge will act as

resource and will be used as manure for the plantation and green belt in the industrial area

and in agricultural fields in the surrounding area.



•Aesthetic appearance and quality of the river will be improved which will be useful for the

local people.

• There is no ecologically sensitive area within a 10 km radial distance of the project site.

No wildlife sanctuary or national park is present within the study area.

• A peripheral greenbelt/plantation, garden and lawn will be provided which will improve

the aesthetics of the area.

• As the proposed site is the industrial area away from residential area and all the required

care will be taken to control the pollution levels to minimum as discussed in the relevant

sections of this report, no adverse impacts are anticipated due to construction of CETP

during construction and operation phase.

• Adequate mitigation measures will be ensured to reduce odour emissions and disease

vectors from proposed site to eliminate the nuisance.

• Hence the status of sanitation and community will be maintained in good condition at the

project site.

• It is concluded that the present project is essential to reduce the pollution level in the

area from aesthetic point of view as well as from public health point of view. This will be

helpful to maintain the indigenous aquatic and terrestrial ecology. The expected reduction

in pollution levels would help in further level of industrialization and improvement in the

socio-economic status of the local people.

8.2 Employment Potential

During construction phase, skilled and unskilled manpower will be needed. This will

temporarily increase the employment opportunity. Secondary jobs are also bound to be

generated to provide day-to-day needs and services to the work force. This will also

temporarily increase the demand for essential daily utilities in the local market.

The manpower requirement for the proposed plant is expected to generate some

permanent jobs and secondary jobs for the operation and maintenance of plant. This will

increase direct/indirect employment opportunities and ancillary business development to

some extent for the local population and there will be indirect employment generation for

transportation sector as well as ancillary industries.

This phase is expected to create a beneficial marginal impact on the local socio-economic

environment.



8.3 Economic Benefits

The proposed project may provide ample trade opportunities particularly related to supply

of effluent treatment chemicals, supply of construction materials etc. There will be increase

in the local trade indirectly benefiting the local people.

The centralized effluent treatment facility with appropriate technology & under expert

supervision of the technical staff, will reduce the treatment cost per unit of the effluent

quantity thus reducing the production cost of the products being manufactured by the

member units creating an opportunity for them to compete in the market.

The owner(s) of the member unit will be able to concentrate more on the quality

production as they will be no longer require to spend time on wastewater management.

The long-term implication of these changes will be definitely progressive as this may lead

to probable expansion of the production facilities.



9 Environmental Cost and Benefit Analysis

The upcoming project will generate direct and indirect employment opportunities for the

local people. The CETP will create employment including skilled as well as semi-skilled

staff directly or indirectly. The secondary employment in the form of providing services to

the employed manpower will also be developed in the neighboring villages.

The company will also provide the helping hand in the development of the nearby villages

by arranging regular medical checkup camp for the employees.

The project will generate a fair amount of direct, indirect and induced employment in the

study region. The local economy will receive a boost due to employee spending and

services generated by applicant.



10 Environmental Management Plan

10.1 Introduction

An EMP is a site-specific plan developed to ensure that all necessary measures are

identified and implemented in order to protect environment and comply with

environmental legislation and then being implemented with a primary objective to

minimize harm to the environment.

In Chapter 4 of this EIA report, anticipated impacts during construction and operation

phases of the proposed project have been identified, predicted and evaluated.

Conventionally most of the identified impacts can be managed through the proposed

effluent treatment and gaseous emission controls already described. However, where

potential sources of environmental impacts could not be managed through such measures,

additional mitigation measures are required. This chapter on the Environmental

Management Plan (EMP) lists and describes those measures, they are either of an

organization, procedural or technical / instrumental nature. These measures are over and

above all items already incorporated in the design of project facilities.

The details provided by the proponent about the proposed project technical data, policy

matters, approach to environmental protection, etc. and the baseline environmental status

monitored through field surveys during the study period have formed the basis to predict

the impact on all individual components of environment.

The impact identification and prediction has been made keeping in view the predicted

results primarily based on design details and the baseline data gathered during the study

period. The EMP relevant to construction and operation phases is delineated in the

following sections.

environmental monitoring and control. The EMC team will take care of pollution

monitoring aspects and implementation of control measures.

A group of qualified and efficient engineers with technicians will be deputed for

maintenance, up keeping and monitoring the pollution control equipment, to keep them in

working at the best of their efficiencies.

Responsibilities of EMC

The responsibilities of the EMC include the following:



Regular environmental monitoring will be carried out to ensure that pollution is

limited below prescribed limits and to take corrective action by either optimizing

the treatment process or providing new equipment or improving the performance

of pollution control equipment. In case the monitored results of environment

pollution will indicate parameters exceeding the prescribed limits, remedial actions

will be taken through the concerned plant authorities.

The actual operation and maintenance of pollution control equipments of each

department will be under respective department heads.

the committee.

The organization chart had already been enclosed in chapter-6

10.5 Management and Maintenance of Conveyance System

Environmental friendly and cost-effective system of effluent conveyance has been planned

to bring the effluent from the units located in GIDC, Ankleshwar.

Following are the special provisions made in conveyance system to protect the

environment from any malfunction and for smooth conductance.

Effluent will be transported via rubber linked tankers from each industry to CETP.

Proper Inspection will be carried out of the effluents received & discharged.



10.6 Construction Phase Management

Environment impact during the construction phase can be attributed to the site preparation,

civil works, erection and mechanical fabrication, waste disposal, welding etc. and provision

of civic amenities to the construction work team. The potential for environmental impact

during construction phase is temporary and environment returns back to its previous status

on completions of the construction.

The construction shall be undertaken on open land and topography of the site is plain. Thus,

change in land use and destruction of flora from the construction area is not involved. The

Environmental Management Plan for construction phase is described below;

During site preparation, the materials shall be stacked at safe place.

To prevent soil erosion, temporary seeding and sedimentation basin shall be

provided.

To control the nuisance created by excavation, leveling and transportation activities

shall be carried out by water sprinkling.

Safety equipments such as ear plugs, ear muffs, helmet and safety goggles etc. will be

provided.

10.7 Operational Phase Management

The detail study was carried out for operational phase aspect, impact and their mitigation

measure. Control measures have been incorporated in the process system to minimize

wastes generation and subsequent environment.

10.8 Management of Water Environment at CETP

Neutral effluent from member industries to CETP shall be treated in Effluent Treatment

Plant, which consists of Primary, Secondary and Tertiary treatment facility and finally sent

to the FETP of NCTL for further treatment and final disposal into deep Arabian Sea.

• Record of daily effluent received from each member unit and disposal of treated

effluent is maintained.

• Magnetic flow meters are installed each on pump discharge line of equalization tank

and on final disposal line of Treated Effluent Disposal Sump.

• Effective Waste water treatment in CETP by proper operations and controls in order

to meet the disposal norms.

After the effluent treatment, the hazardous sludge produced will be sent to designated

hazardous waste management facility i.e. M/s. Bharuch Enviro Infrastructure Ltd. (BEIL),

Ankleshwar (Annexure-)



Regular maintenance of the plant will be carried out & care will be taken that the generated

leachate or any other waste water does not contaminate the ground water of the area. The

treated water will be recycled and reused for the horticulture & agricultural purposes to

have the eco-friendly system. Adequate Spares for effluent collection, handling, treatment

and transfer will be maintained.

10.9 Monitoring of Member Industrial Units for Their Responsibilities

To record the quantity of the influent daily

To record the stipulated quality parameters of the influent and treated effluent daily

The daily record of the quality and quantity of the influent and treated effluent will be

maintained by each member industry and is submitted on daily basis to CETP authorities.

This will facilitate the smooth functioning of the treatment plants at CETP and to calculate

the share of charge of individual member industries on pollution loads basis.

10.10 Air Environment

Emission at CETP shall be in the form of the particulate matter and gases from stack

attached to D.G. Sets. Moreover, regular monitoring of stacks is carried out to check

the emissions. In case emission exceeds, the corrective measures are immediately

taken and records of the same shall be maintained.

Regular ambient air quality monitoring shall be carried out within premises and

nearby area for PM, SO2 and NOX.

A greenbelt around the CETP shall be developed for reducing the air pollution and

attenuation of noise.


The sound pressure level, generated by noise source, decrease with increasing distance

from the source due to wave divergence. The propagation and attenuation of noise

pressure wave is dependent on many parameters amongst which, the medium of travel and

the ambient conditions are the most significant parameters.

As per WHO recommendations, there is no risk of damage in hearing due to the noise levels

up to 75 dB(A) (Leq- 8 hrs), whereas OSHA specifies the same as 90 dB(A). This sound

pressure levels are used to describe the exposure to noise in workplace.

There may be small addition to the ambient noise level, due to the increased

transportation activities. This creates a slight adverse impact over the sound

environment.

Regular oiling, lubrication and maintenance of the equipments is carried out to

minimize noise generation. However, due to the attenuation of noise level within the



CETP no significant impact is expected. The CETP shall develop a green belt within

the premises, which acts as a barrier to the propagation of noise from the factory

premises.

It is recommended to measure and maintain records of noise level at various places

within and outside CETP premises.

Manufacturers/ suppliers of major noise generating equipment/ machines like

compressors, generators should be asked to take required measures for minimizing

the noise levels generated by machines by using noise absorbing material for

various enclosures or using appropriate design/ technology for fabricating/

assembling the machines.

Audiometric tests should be conducted periodically for the employees working close

to the high noise sources.


Hazardous Waste Disposal

Three categories of hazardous wastes are generated from CETP. Mode of disposal followed

is as per Hazardous and Other Wastes (Management and & Transboundary Movement)

Rules, 2016. The hazardous wastes generated are ETP Sludge from Common Effluent

Treatment Plant, used oil from lubrication of equipment, Discarded Containers and Oil &

Grease from skimming. These Hazardous wastes are stored in scientifically designed and

constructed hazardous waste storage area within the premises. CETP sludge shall be sent

to Common TSDF of M/s. Bharuch Enviro Infrastructure Ltd. (BEIL), Ankleshwar. Used oil

shall be sold to registered refiners. Discarded Containers shall be sold to GPCB approved

recyclers. Oil & Grease from skimming shall be sent to Common TSDF of M/s. Bharuch

Enviro Infrastructure Ltd. (BEIL), Ankleshwar.

Storage of Hazardous Waste:

Hazardous waste shall be stored at a designated Onsite-secured area that offers

protection from sun, rain fall, spreading of leachate, mixing of wastes etc.

Designated storage area with RCC flooring and cover shed shall be provided for

storage of Hazardous waste.

Hazardous waste shall not be stored for a period more than 90 day. CETP shall

maintain records and make them available for inspection.

captive facility/ authorized TSDF facility.

Provision of solid/Hazardous waste collection system & storage area confirming the

guidelines provided by CPCB for Solid/hazardous waste generation.

Regular Training of employees engaged in solid waste management works.



10.13 Green Belt Development

Tree plantation is one of the effective remedial measures to control the Air pollution/dust

emission and noise pollution. It also causes aesthetics and climatologically improvement of

area as well as sustains and supports the biosphere. It is an established fact that trees and

vegetation acts as a vast natural sink for the gaseous as well as particulate air pollutants

due to enormous surface area of leaves. It also helps to attenuate the ambient noise level.

Plantation around the pollution sources control the air pollution by filtering the air

particulate and interacting with gaseous pollutant before it reaches to the ground. Tree

plantation also acts as buffer and absorber against accidental release of pollutants.

Adequate green belt will be developed as per the CPCB norms and In Green belt area about

1000 tree per acre of land as prescribed by Gujarat Pollution Control Board shall be

planted.

CETP shall develop 7960.13 m2 area covered as greenbelt and other forms of greenery.

The plants used for Green belt development should exhibit following characteristics in

order to be selected for plantation.

1. The trees should be able to grow and thrive on soil of the area, be evergreen, inhabitant,

having minimum of leaf fall.

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 will be locally available

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

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

belt.

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

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

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.

10.17 Conclusion

The operation of CETP will result in decreasing the pollution levels in this highly pollution

prone area and thereby protection and restoration of the ecology of the region.

The proposed project of CETP for treatment of effluents generated from units located in the

GIDC Ankleshwar with recovery of water & reuse is recommendable as corporate social

responsibility of industries. Treated effluent from CETP is being discharged through GIDC

drain into FETP operated by M/s. Narmada Clean Technology Ltd. (NCTL), Ankleshwar for

further treatment and disposal to deep sea. The social welfare activity of the M/s ETL will

improve the infrastructural facilities in the surrounding villages especially with respect to

education and medical field.



11 Summary and Conclusions

11.1 Introduction

The concept of CETP has been adopted to achieve end-of-pipe treatment of combined

effluent to avail the benefit of scale of operation. In addition, the CETP also facilitates in

reduction of number of discharge points in an industrial estate for better enforcement and

to make the skilled man power available for proper treatment of effluent.

M/s Enviro Technology Ltd (ETL) is operating a Common Effluent Treatment Plant (CETP)

since 1996 at plot No 2413/14 GIDC Notified Industrial Estate Ankleshwar . Raw Effluent

from more than 250-member industries such as dyes, intermediate, pigment, chemicals,

textile, pharmaceuticals etc. that are flourishing in and around Ankleshwar industrial estate

is collected in tankers and treated at CETP having Primary, Secondary and Tertiary

Treatment facilities. Treated effluent from CETP is being discharged through GIDC drain

into Final Effluent Treatment Plant (FETP) operated by M/s. Narmada Clean Technology

Ltd. (NCT), Ankleshwar for further treatment and disposal to deep sea. The plant is in

operation with valid Consent to Operate & Authorization valid up to 18.03.2024.

The Enviro Technology Limited had obtained Environment Clearance (EC) vide letter No.10

2/2008-IA.III Dated 23rd

July 2009 for proposed capacity enhancement of Common Effluent

Treatment Plant (CETP) for treatment of industrial effluent from 1.8 to 3.5 MLD. The

Validity of Environmental Clearance (EC) for expansion was extended up to 22/07/2019

vide Letter No: (Vide MoEF No.10-2/2008-IA. III 3rd July 2017) for treatment of 3500

m3/day industrial wastewater and use of 1445 m3/day GIDC water. Consequent to

notification of Moratorium imposed on Critically Polluted Areas which included

Ankleshwar Industrial Estate vide OM No: J-11013/5/2010-IA. II (I) on 13th January 2010,

there has been no expansion and no new industries came up as a result there has been no

increase in effluent quantity. Accordingly, ETL did not expand the capacity of CETP and

continued to operate on existing capacity of 1.8 MLD of raw effluent as earlier. In the year

2016, the Moratorium has been lifted for Ankleshwar Vide Letter No: J-11013/5/2010-IA. II

(A) on Dated 25th November 2016 based on CEPI index.

Based on the extensive experience of operating the Common Effluent Treatment Plant, ETL

proposes Expansion with modification in the treatment technology plans to utilize the

modified quantity sewage mixed with industrial wastewater treatment and fresh water

used for chemical dosing & other uses.



11.2 Category of the project

As per the EIA Notification 2006, the proponent needs to obtain the Environmental

Clearance for the proposed project for establishing CETP. Common Effluent Treatment

Units (CETP) units are listed at Serial no. 7(h) of the Schedule of EIA Notification of

14.09.2006 under Category ‘B’. However due to location of the existing CETP in the

Critically Polluted Area the project has been categorized as “A” category. For the same term

of reference has been approved by MoEF & CC (EAC), New Delhi in 36th Meeting of EAC

held on 26-28th Nov 2018 to conduct EIA study.

11.4 Treatment Scheme

The small-scale industries who are members of the CETP store their raw effluent in storage

tanks. These effluents are transported through rubber linked tankers from the industries to

the CETP at ETL (CETP) on receipt at CETP they are unloaded into Equalization Tanks,

Samples are checked for COD, Acidity and Ammonical Nitrogen.

Primary Treatment:

The effluent is segregated in Low Ammonical Nitrogen stream and High Ammonical

nitrogen stream. Separate equalization tanks are provided for both the streams. Eq tanks

no 1/2/5/6 are used for Low Ammonical nitrogen and Eq tanks 3 / 4 are used for High

Ammonical Nitrogen streams.

The low Ammonical Nitrogen stream are pumped to neutralizer tanks where it is

neutralized by 10 % lime solution and then suitable dose of coagulant/flocculant are added

before primary clarifier. In primary clarifier the primary sludge is separated out from

bottom and send to decanter for dewatering. The overflow from decanter is recycle back to

primary clarifier. The overflow from primary clarifier is passed through primary sand filter

to remove any carry overflow of TSS.

The High Ammonical nitrogen stream from Eq tanks 3 /4 is pumped to MAP treatment

plant where suitable dose of magnesium chloride and Sodium di-ammonium phosphate is

added at pH 9. The pH adjustment will be done by 30 % NaOH solution. The MAP crystal

are separated out using Tube settler and the dewatered in filter press. The clear effluent

from Tube settler is mixed with low Ammonical stream before primary sand filter.

The mixed stream after primary sand filter is treated in new aeration tanks (ASP-III, 10500

m3).

Secondary Treatment:

During pilot plant study it is observed that by increasing volume of 1st stage ASP it is

possible to treat more effluent in the same facility created for 220 tanker/day. So new

10500 m3 Bioreactor will be constructed and suitable air will be provided by fine diffusers.

The biomass from overflow from ASP-III is separated in Secondary clarifier (Primary

clarifier-I is converted to secondary clarifier). Biomass wasted from sec clarifier and

dewatered in decanter. The overflow from secondary clarifier is the transferred to Anoxic

tank of ASP by gravity. Here de-nitrification reaction is takes place and for that internal

recycle/ external recycle from aerobic part is provided. This process is being called MLE

(Modified Ludzack Ettinger Process). Mild agitation will be provided in Anoxic tank to keep

mass in suspension. The overflow from anoxic tank is further aerated in nitrification tank

where air is passed through fine diffusers for nitrification process. The biomass from this

tank is transferred to anoxic tank by Internal recycle. The overflow from aerobic tank is



transferred to sec clarifier I/II/III biomass separated and recycle back to anoxic tank. Bio

mass wasted from underflow to keep required MLVSS in the system. Overflow from

secondary clarifier is further treated in tertiary plant.

Tertiary Treatment:

Suitable sand filters and activated carbon filters are provided for tertiary treatment. The

tertiary treated effluent is discharged to GIDC drainage line for further treatment at NCT

(Narmada Clean Technology Ltd) before deep sea discharge.

Online Magnetic flow meter, pH meter and TOC meter are provided for continuous

monitoring of Flow, pH, TOC /COD.

Advantages of Proposed Scheme

Operation of Primary treated effluent with 2 stage ASP +MLE Pilot Plant following benefits

are being observed:

Convert both the processes into relatively modern high rate processes instead of

traditional extended aeration:

C-removal by high rate activated sludge process.

N-removal by Modified Ludzak-Ettinger (MLE) process, a combination of anoxic-

aerobic reactors (requires minor modification of the existing tank to create an

anoxic chamber in 1/3rd of the tank volume).

Separate the C-removal and N-removal in a sequential manner into two existing

reactors. In two stage ASP and MLE, the composition of bacterial consortium is

different in two reactors.

Additional Gain: ammonia nitrogen will mostly be converted to gaseous nitrogen.

Total nitrogen disposal to the water bodies will be reduced.

Hydraulic load of the primary treated effluent may be increased by decreasing

sewage.

Specific organic carbon removal capacity per unit reactor volume (BOD or COD

removal in kg/m3/d) is more compare to extended aeration

Outlet COD will lower by 100-200 mg/L

11.5 Existing Environment

CETP of Enviro Technology Limited (ETL), Ankleshwar is located within 2.7 km NNW side

of UPL-1 Unit. Therefore, as per notification no. F. No. J-11013/41/12006-IA-II (I) (part)

dated 22nd August 2014 and No. J-11013/41/2006-IA-II (I) (Part) dated: 29th August 2017

clause (VII) the data may be used for other project. The base line data of UPL-1 is also

collected by us during from 8th March 2018 to 3rd June 2018 and same is revalidated for

In all cases, the 24-hourly average levels of SO2 and NO2 were observed to be within the limit of 80 µg/m3 for residential, rural & other areas as stipulated in the National Ambient Air Quality Standards. Also, in all cases, the PM2.5 levels were within the corresponding permissible limit of 60 µg/m3. As well as PM10 level were within the corresponding permissible limit 100 µg/m3as stipulated NAAQS.

11.5.2 Traffic Survey

Traffic survey carried out on the both direction/carriage ways of Vadodara to Surat

National Highway-8 The capacity of Vadodara to Surat National Highway-8 is 80000 PCUs

per day (3333 PCU per hr). Maximum traffic during peak traffic period is 1493 PCUs per

hours, which is well below the capacity of existing highway (80000 PCUs).

11.5.3 Water Environment

Surface Water: The surface water sample was collected from GNFC Reservoir, Narmada River (Near Sea ), and GIDC Pond during the study period and were analyzed for physical and chemical parameters.



The pH recorded for surface water at GNFC pond is 8.16 and the pH of the surface water of

River Narbada is 7.68. Calcium was found between 18.72 mg/l at GIDC pond and 106.69

mg/l in Narbada River, Chloride was found 28 mg/l and 4398 mg/l respectively. In

comparison, the Sulphate (SO4) and Nitrate(NO3) was found higher in Narbada River i.e.

509 mg/l and 12.4mg/l respectively . The higher values of TDS, Chloride , conductivity and

Nitrate in River Narbada is due to backwater effects of sea water..

Ground Water: Monitoring of ground water was carried out at 7 locations. The analysis

results indicate the pH ranges in between 7.43 to 7.78, the maximum pH of 7.78 was

observed at village Dhadal Inam and the minimum pH of 7.62 was observed at Village

TaibahNagar Total hardness was observed to be ranging from 178 to 555 mg/l. and

Chloride was found to be in

The results of ground water samples were compared to Indian Standard Specification of

drinking water IS: 10500:2012. Some of analyzed parameters in ground water samples

meet acceptable limit however all the analyzed parameters are meeting permissible limit in

the absence of alternate source as per Indian Standard Specification of drinking water IS:

10500:2012.

11.5.4 Soil Environment

Soil quality was monitored at eight locations at project site and all-around industrial estate

gives the status of cumulative impact of industrial activities in the Ankleshwar industrial

Estate.

A. Soil reaction (pH): The nutritional importance of pH is illustrated, thus hydrogen ion

concentration has influence not only on, solubility of nutrients, but also upon facility with

which these nutrients are absorbed by plants, even already in soil solution for e.g. Fe,Mn

and Zn become less available as pH rises from to 7.79 to 8.43 indicating soil is slightly

alkaline.

B. Electrical conductivity (EC): The salt content of the soils is estimated by EC

measurements, and is useful to designate soils as normal or sodic (saline). Electrical

conductivity is expressed as µs/cm at 25°C, The EC of eight soil samples is between 102.9

to 734.6 mmhos/cm and are below the limits to be called as saline or salt affected and

hence the soils are normal for crop growth.

11.5.5 Noise Environment

It was observed that the noise levels both during day time and night time are found within the desirable limits.



11.5.6 Biological Environment

Detailed study has been conducted within the study area of 10 km to describe the

biological environment surrounding the CETP with specific reference to type of

crops, floral and faunal diversity, endangered species etc.

There are no National Parks, Wildlife sanctuaries, Reserved & Protected forests with

the periphery of 10 km buffer zone from the project site.

List of Flora & fauna has been incorporated in chapter-3.

11.5.7 Socio-economic environment:

As per Census Records 2011, for settlements of the study area. There are total 97356

households in the study area. Total population of the study area accounts for 440062. The

male population constitutes 52.63% while female population is 47.37% of the total

population in the study area

The details of occupational pattern and infrastructure facilities in the study area ie 10 Km buffer

zone, shows total main workers account for 34.16% (53.89% males and 12.23% females)

whereas non-workers account for 61.72% (42.21% males and 83.40% females) and marginal

workers are 4.12% (3.9% males and 4.37% females) of the total population of study area

Literacy rate is around 75.14 % which is considerably lower than the overall state figure which is

79.31%.

11.5.8 LANDUSE PATTERNS:

The area within the 10 km radius of the proposed site have been considered for the

study of the land use pattern.

Landuse pattern reveals that 51.10% land of the study area is Agricultural land

whereas the industrial is 8.05%, Waste/barren Land is 7.95 %, settlements are in

area of 16.69%, Water bodies are 4.94 %.

Impact Assessments

Based on the project design details provided by proponent, data collected to describe the

existing environmental scenario and to satisfy the requirements of TOR, the impacts have

been identified and assessed.

11.6 Budgetary Provisions For EMP

Adequate budgetary provisions have been made by the management for execution of

environmental management plans. Total capital cost for environmental pollution control

measures would be Rs. 11 Lacs and recurring cost per annum would be Rs. 3 lacs. Budget

11.8 Observations and Conclusions

(A) WATER:

• The CETP plant has treatment consisting of physical, chemical, biological, conventional

filtration & tertiary treatment units with sludge handling infrastructure.

• Treated effluent from CETP is being discharged through GIDC drain into FETP

operated by M/s. Narmada Clean Technology Ltd. (NCTL), Ankleshwar for further

treatment and disposal to deep sea.

(B) AIR:

• Dust emission during construction & emission will be controlled & occasionally,

operation of DG set will be there in case of failure of power.

(C) LAND:

• The change in land use pattern is not in conflict with any present and/or future use of

the land.

• The overburden and construction waste will be reused as early as possible in the

construction and for land filling during land-scaping of project site.

(D) BIOLOGICAL:

• There are no notified ecological sensitive locations, migratory paths, sanctuaries etc.

within the study area.



• The proposed project does not envisage any destruction or displacement of any

endemic

faunal species.

• Green belt/plantation will be developed around the CETP.

(E) OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH AND SAFETY:

• As the operation of CETP involves handling and use of chemicals such as Lime, Acid,

Ferrous sulphate, Poly electrolyte, Urea, DAP etc. the safety of workers invites safety

considerations.
