CHAPTER 3
ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN
3.1 INTRODUCTION
The EMP is required to ensure sustainable development in the study area of 5 Km
radius of the proposed mining site; hence it needs to be an environmental conservation
management plan for the proposed activity.
The EMP aims at controlling pollution at the source level to the possible extent with the
available and affordable technology.
Environmental management for the proposed mining activity is discussed for the
environmental impact pertains to the operational phase. Even though reversible in
nature - all the impacts will be visible only during operational phase. It is planned to
take corrective measures to ensure that these effects are kept to bare minimum. The
EMP will therefore, be initiated during planning stage itself.
The environmental management plan consists of a set of mitigation, management,
monitoring and institutional measures to be taken during implementation and operation
of the project, to eliminate adverse environmental impacts or reduce them to
acceptable levels. The present environmental management plan addresses the
components of environment which are likely to be affected by the different operations
in the mine
3.2 OBJECTIVE OF EMP
The main objectives of Environmental Management Plan are:
Overall conservation of environment.
Minimization of waste generation and pollution.
Judicious use of natural resources and water.
Safety, welfare and good health of the work men and populace.
Ensure effective operation of all control measures.
Vigilance against probable disasters and accidents.
Monitoring of cumulative and long time impacts.
Ensure effective operation of all control measures.
Environmental Management Plan (EMP) aims at the preservation of ecological system
by considering in-built pollution abatement facilities at the proposed site. Some of the
major criteria governing the environmental measures will be adopted, and the same is
described in ensuring paragraphs.

3.3 POLLUTION CONTROL MEASURES
3.3.1 Air Environment
The proposed mining operations are not anticipated to raise the concentration of the
pollutants beyond prescribed limits. However, the following measures would be
adopted to mitigate the pollution levels in ambient air. Dust particles generated during
mining activities when become airborne lead to increase in particulates level in the
ambient air. The major source of dust generation is the transport of material by trucks
and tractor trolleys. Adequate control measures shall be taken during mining
operations as well as transportation of minerals.
3.3.1.1 PREVENTION AND CONTROL OF DUST POLLUTION
The main pollutant in air is Particulate Matter (PM10), which is generated due to
various mining activities. However, to reduce the impact of dust pollution the following
steps are being taken during various mining activities.
a. During Transport operation
All the haulage roads in the area are being kept wide, leveled, compacted and
properly maintained and water is sprayed regularly during the shift operation to
prevent generation of fugitive dust due to movement of vehicles.
b. Plantation work :
In order to reduce spread of air pollution in the surroundings, green belt is being
developed around the mines office, mine approach road, etc. to control dust
pollution.
c. Monitoring of air pollution
Periodic air quality survey is being carried out to monitor the quality and for timely
corrective actions.
Lying of haul roads as per the standards to avoid or eliminate air – borne dust.
Watering of haul roads and other roads at regular intervals
Spraying of water on permanent transport roads at required frequencies.
Provision of green belt by vegetation for trapping dust.
Greenbelt development along the haul roads and along the boundaries of the
lease area.
Wet drilling will be followed so that the dust emission to atmosphere is
minimized.
Proper blasting pattern will be followed for effective rock fragmentation and
generation of minimal fine dust to open atmosphere.
The extracted mineral would be transported from the mine to the end user by
adopting following measures so as to minimize dust emissions.

PRE FEASIBILITY REPORT
M/S Overseas Min-Tech Consultants, Jaipur
Speed of the vehicles would be maintained within the prescribed limits.
Trucks would not be over loaded and would be maintained to the body level.
3.3.2 Noise Environment
The Noise is the environmental attribute associated with the quarry activities and
operational of machinery. As mentioned earlier this is ongoing project, no additional
machinery is proposed to be added,The quarrying operation is restricted to day time
only, to attenuate noise various measures are being taken. Drilling by Jack hammer-
compressor combination is beingadopted. The compressor is placed where men are not
exposed to noise generated by the compressors.
In addition following control measures will be taken to keep the ambient noise levels
well within limits:
Use of Personal Protective Equipments (PPE) i.e., earmuffs and earplugs by workers,
working in high noise areas.
The greenbelt with species of rich canopy in the lease area at suitable places and
along the roads will further attenuate the noise levels.
Conducting periodical medical checkup of all workers for any noise related health
problems
Proper training to personnel to create awareness about adverse noise level effects.
Planned noise monitoring at suitable locations in the mine and outside location for
proper effective remedial actions.
Minimum use of horns and speed limit of 10 kmph
Timely maintenance of vehicles and their silencers to minimize vibration and Sound.
The greenbelt, which is being provided, will act as noise attenuator. With the noise
abatement measures (as indicated above), it is expected that the noise levels will be
maintained in compliance with standards.
3.3.3 Water Environment
3.3.3.1 Surface Water
The major source of surface water pollution due to mining is insignificant, however the
following measures will be undertaken to prevent water pollution.
Drainage around the mining area would be undertaken so that rain water does
not enter the mining pits.
Plantation will be under taken as per green belt development plan.
Before onset of monsoon, drains are cut along to the quarry faces to divert the surface
run off. Garland drain is provided at the quarry top to regulate monsoon water and
direct the same to the settling ponds/quarry pit to contain the quarry wash off and to
avoid the same joining to the adjoining surface water bodies/water courses. To arrest
the silt if any carried by monsoon run-off will be contained the settling pond from
where the clear water will be let out to the natural water course.

3.3.3.2 Ground Water
There would not be any adverse effect on the ground water quality. The rock formation
does not contain any harmful element, which could percolate into the ground and
pollute the ground water. Hence, no control measures are required.
However, regular monitoring of quality in the existing tube wells in the vicinity would
be carried out both with reference to area and times intervals to study the
hydrodynamics of the strata.
3.3.4 Land Environment
Any mining activity may alter the land use pattern in the lease area. In order to
minimize the adverse effects, the following suggestions have been made. Degradation
of land is not a very significant adverse impact of hilly terrain mining due creation of
access roads, mining operations, transportation of mined material. In order to prevent
the environmental degradation of leased mine area and its surroundings, the following
measures shall be taken;
Minimal damage to the flora standing around the lease area.
Operations during daylight only.
No foreign material should be allowed to remain/spill in lease area and
catchments area, or no pits/pockets will be allowed to be filled with such
material,
Movement of the vehicles on the road will be increased; however, non-metaled
road leading to mining area will be sprinkled with water at regular intervals.
3.3.4.1 Plantation and Soil Conservation
The main objective of the green belt is to provide a barrier between the source of
pollution and the surrounding areas. The green belt helps to capture the fugitive
emission and to attenuate the noise generated apart from improving the aesthetics.
Development of green belt and other forms of greenery shall also prevent soil erosion
and washing away of topsoil besides helping in stabilizing the functional ecosystem and
further to make the climate more conducive and to restore water balance. While
making choice of plant species for cultivation in green belts, weightage has to be given
to the natural factor of bio-climate. The environmental condition of the study area is
suitable for rubber plantation. Therefore the proponent has decided to plant the rubber
trees in the area which will serve the purpose of green belt development as well as it
will have commercial value also.
The entire top soil so excavated will be reused for rubber plantation. Grass will also be
grown to stabilize the soil cover to prevent from the erosion during monsoon season.
3.3.4.2 Post mining land use
As the mining lease area is hilly terrain and it belongs to private individuals, the mined
out land will be used for commercial plantation. Top soil will be used to spread over all
the benches and grass will be grown to stabilize the soil cover and rubber plantation
Granite (Building Stone) Quarry of M/s Chennadu Granites, Vill- Kondoor, Taluk- Meenachil, Dist- Kottayam, Kerala

will be done. Thus mined out area would be reclaimed by plantation during the mining
period.
3.3.5 Biological Environment
The mining activity will have insignificant effect on the existing flora and fauna. Data
have been collected during site visit It was found that the mining activity will not have
any significant impact on the biological environment of the region.
3.3.5.1 Mitigation of Impacts on Biological Environment
It is required to establish a stable ecosystem with both ecological and economic
returns, minimization of soil erosion and dust pollution enhances the beauty of the
area. To achieve this it is planned to increase plantation activities. The basic objectives
of plantations are as follows.
Improvement of Soil quality
Quick vegetative cover to check soil erosion
Conservation of biological diversity
3.3.6 Occupational Health and Safety Measures
Occupational health and safety (OHS) is a cross-disciplinary area concerned with
protecting the safety, health and welfare of people engaged in work or employment.

The area is hilly terrain, Granite occurs in the entire proposed area, Granite being low
cost minor mineral open cost mechanized mining is the best choice, therefore the area
is being worked by opencast method and it is proposed to continue the mining
operation by the same method. Proper benches of 5M height and width will be
maintained thus overall pit slope will not be more than 450.
The salient features are furnished as under.
1.6.1 Site preparation
To remove the soil cover and expose the rock.
Remove the loose boulders with help of excavator and to prepare free face for
drilling.
To develop haul road from the proposed quarry using natural gradient of the hill
for movement of tippers.
To give proper layout to the top bench.
Once the site is prepared; production will be commenced by drilling holes of 32
mm diameter and 2.5 M in depth using jack hammer and compressor.
The drill holes will be charged with explosive, and blasting will be done, size of
the boulders so generated by blasting will be reduced by using rock breaker.
The blasted material will be transported by road for the end use by the
contractors.
