Sewage Treatment Process Description:
SEWAGE treatment plant is designed to treat 180 cum of Sewage per day.
This Sewage shall be generated across the 3 shifts. The proposed scheme is
depicted in the figure attached below.
Primary treatment: The Sewage is collected and led via drain to the
treatment plant site. In the drains, screens shall be provided for retaining
coarse matter. The screens are manual type and are to be cleaned at
regular intervals. Two stages of screens are provided i.e. coarse screen
followed by fine screens. The Sewage is then taken to grit chamber for
removal of grit. Following removal of grit, the Sewage is taken to an
equalization tank for attenuation of variation in waste flow rate and
characteristics. It is proposed to have equalization tank with holding
capacity of 6 hours DT. For mixing, and to avoid solids from settling, air shall
be bubbled in the equalization tank through a grid placed at the base of
the tank. The equalized Sewage is pumped at a uniform and constant rate
for further treatment.
Secondary treatment: Sewage from the primary stage treatment is
subjected to bio-chemical oxidation in aeration tank. An attached growth
fluidized bed aerobic system working as an extended aeration system is
proposed. Air for aeration is supplemented by means of blowers
connected to air diffusers. For immobilizing the microbes, high surface area
Residential Complex Sri. Raavi Surya Prakash Babu, Sy.No 978 & 979,Kukatpally(v), Balanagar(M),Rangareddy(D), Telangana.
Pridhvi Envirotech (P) Ltd, Hyderabad. Page 58
to volume ratio synthetic media shall be provided in the aeration tank. This
system has the following advantages:
a) Smaller foot print area
b) Ease in operation and maintenance
c) Operator skills required are minimal
d) System less susceptible to upset conditions (shock loading, power
failure etc.)
e) Lower energy requirements
f) No clogging or chocking of the media.
Following bio-chemical oxidation, the Sewage from the aeration tank is
taken to a tube-deck (secondary settling tank) for solid-liquid separation.
The sludge collected in the hopper bottom of the settling tank is
periodically withdrawn to sludge sump tank. Overflow from the settling
tank is subjected to tertiary treatment. Overflow from the secondary
settling tank is taken to chemical oxidation tank for chemically oxidizing
the residual contaminants. Chlorine shall be added for chemical oxidation.
For adequate contact time a chlorine contact chamber with 30 minutes
detention time and mixing arrangement is proposed.
Tertiary treatment: The Sewage from chlorine contact chamber is then
collected in a sump and pumped to a pressure sand filter for removal of
particulate matter. The Sewage is then taken through an activated carbon
column for removal of trace organics and pollutants (chlorine, color, trace
organics etc.).
Sludge Treatment: Sludge from the settling tank shall be transferred to
sludge sump tank. By using filter press feed pumps we transfer the sludge
from sludge sump tank to filter press. The water from the filter press is
recycled into the equalization tank.

c). Solid & Hazardous Waste Details:
Domestic garbage is anticipated from the residential complex. Total solid
waste estimated @ 1 Kg/day per house hold. Thus total garbage
anticipated from the complex will be 313 kg/day which is proposed to be
disposed to municipal solid waste disposal facility of MCH through local
municipal authorities. About 300 Kgs/month of solid waste anticipated from
sewage treatment plant and same will be used as manure.
The hazardous waste generated will primarily be waste lube oil from
maintenance of DG sets of about 80 liters per annum and 40 liters per
annum of transformer oil from transformers. This waste oils will be collected
in barrels and disposed off through parties authorized by APPCB / CPCB.
2 no’s of per annum of used batteries will be disposed of by a buy-back
arrangement with the battery supplier.

4.2 AIR EMISSION SOURCES
Air emissions have no boundaries and can migrate between areas
depending upon the wind direction and speed.
4.2.1 Predicted Air Emissions from the site
CONSTRUCTION PHASE
During the construction phase, PM is expected to be the main pollutant
associated with on-site roads (paved and unpaved), stockpiles and
material handling. In this case, pollution emission sources shall be
distributed throughout the project site and shall fall under the category of
area source. The land acquired is fairly flat, so extensive formation work is
not expected during this phase. It is assumed that most of the excavated
material shall be used within the project, with minimal cut and fill material
to come from outside the site.
Due to the confined nature of heavy construction activity during this
limited period, tailpipe emissions from construction equipment are
assumed to be essentially negligible.
OPERATIONAL PHASE
During the operational phase, the diesel generator sets to be operated for
back-up power supply are the major source of air pollution. From this point
source, the following pollutants are expected;
PM, SO2, NOx and CO

Diesel Generator Set Fuel Combustion - Point Source
To serve as a emergency power back-up, two diesel generators of 1 x 100
KVA & 1 x 150 KVA connected to individual stacks shall be installed. The
diesel generator sets are operated only during power failure thus
conserving fuel and reducing the pollution.
As a worst-case scenario, emissions were predicted assuming an operation
time of 24 hours. The emissions from the diesel generators are provided in
the following table:

4.3 NOISE EMISSIONS SOURCES
The assessment of the impacts of noise on the surrounding community
depends upon:
Characteristics of noise source (instantaneous, intermittent, or
continuous in nature, with the latter contributing the least to noise
pollution);
Time of day at which noise occurs; and
Location of noise source with respect to noise sensitive receptor.
CONSTRUCTION PHASE
The description of construction activity as detailed in Section 4.2.1 (with
regards to spatial phasing and type of sources) is also pertinent to the

OPERATIONAL PHASE
During the operational phase, the diesel power generators will be the
major source of noise.
Diesel Generator Sets
Noise Limit for Generator sets run with Diesel
Noise limit for diesel generator sets (upto 1000 KVA) manufactured on or
after the 1st January, 2005.
The maximum permissible sound pressure level for new diesel generator
(DG) sets with rated capacity upto 1000 KVA, manufactured on or after
the 1st January, 2005 shall be 75 dB(A) at 1 meter from the enclosure
surface.
Noise control for diesel generator will be as follows:-
Noise from DG set shall be controlled by providing an acoustic enclosure
or by treating the room acoustically, at the users end.
The acoustic enclosure or acoustic treatment of the room shall be
designed for minimum 25 dB (A) insertion loss or for meeting the ambient
noise standards, whichever is on the higher side ( if the actual ambient
noise is on the higher side, it may not be possible to check the
performance of acoustic enclosure/ acoustic treatment. Under such
circumstances the performance may be checked for noise reduction upto
actual ambient noise level, preferably, in the night time).The measurement
for Insertion Loss may be done at different points at 0.5 m from the acoustic

4.4 WATER AND WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT
4.4.1 WATER REQUIREMENTS
Water requirement during the construction phase will be met from water
tankers. The required water during the operational phase will be sourced
from HMWS&SB. However, in the event of non availability of water or for
any excess requirement of water during the operational phase, the
proponents are proposing backup with the aid of rainwater collection in
the reservoirs which will be duly treated, water recycling and water tankers
(in case of water supply failure). It is also emphasized that at any stage of
the project, groundwater reserves would not be exploited for the water
requirement. The water requirements during various phases of the project
are discussed below:
A) CONSTRUCTION PHASE
The project implementation would involve various construction activities.
The following section summarizes the water requirement, its sources and
management of wastewater.
Site development:
Development of site for the proposed development involves excavation,
leveling of the ground surface and stock piling. However as the project site
is flat with no vegetation cover, the leveling activities would result in very
less water usage. Water requirement for any use at this stage would be
provided from water tankers. Similarly, the generation of domestic
wastewater can be managed on site.
Residential Complex Sri. Raavi Surya Prakash Babu, Sy.No 978 & 979,Kukatpally(v), Balanagar(M),Rangareddy(D), Telangana.
Pridhvi Envirotech (P) Ltd, Hyderabad. Page 73
Construction of building infrastructure:
The construction of building infrastructure that includes residential and
other units, Offices, restaurants and multiplex would require water and may
generate waste water too. Water demand during construction phase
would be for:
Construction activities.
Domestic use.
Construction phase may last for a period of approximately two years in
order to complete the earthwork, foundation lying, superstructure
development, service provision and finishing. The water requirement is
being met from the water tankers.
B) OPERATIONAL PHASE
Daily Water Requirement and Sources:
It has been mentioned before that the domestic water requirements will
be met from the HMWS&SB Water supply scheme. The water requirement
for Flushing, Gardening, Landscaping and other purposes would be met
from duly treated recycled water. However, in case of failure of HMWS&SB,
water requirements are planned to be met partly by ground water &
through private tankers. Rain water will be recharged to the ground to
augment the water table in the area. Water tankers will be used only in
case of any emergency or failure of water supply by HMWS&SB or
insufficiency of the water reservoir.

Pridhvi Envirotech (P) Ltd, Hyderabad. Page 74
Water conservation:
Water conservation is an important part of sustainable living and in order to
optimize the water requirement in the project, the developers would
incorporate the component of water conservation by means of rainwater
harvesting and water recycling using fixtures which are low flow and water
efficient models such as 3 litre capacity WC flushing system, sensor
operated urinals and taps to minimize the wastage of water along with
employee education and awareness programme and selective use of dry
type urinals. As per the approved plans from GHMC, various mitigative
measures shall be proposed to further minimize the impacts.
Storm Water Management & Rain Water Harvesting Structures
It is proposed to channelizing the storm water by constructing water drains
leading to the storm water sump. In order to minimize the surface runoff
loss, groundwater recharging through groundwater recharge pits at the
project site has been planned. Appropriate design considerations have
been taken while designing the recharge pits.
Calculating Runoff for Water Harvesting
Calculating runoff is an important step in designing your water harvesting
system. You should determine both your water supply and your water
demand. Use this worksheet to determine your rainwater supply.
Catchment Area: the area in which rain directly falls (i.e. a roof, a
driveway, or a landscape). The area is the same regardless of slope; you
can also think of the area as seen from a birds-eye view or as the horizontal
surface space occupied.
Residential Complex Sri. Raavi Surya Prakash Babu, Sy.No 978 & 979,Kukatpally(v), Balanagar(M),Rangareddy(D), Telangana.
Pridhvi Envirotech (P) Ltd, Hyderabad. Page 75
Runoff Coefficient: the average percentage of rainfall that will run off a
particular surface (i.e. a metal roof has a runoff coefficient of 0.95 or 95%
runoff). The runoff coefficient will vary depending on the composition of
the surface and the rainfall intensity.
Annual Rainfall: the average amount of rainfall over one year period for
your location.

The total annual rainwater harvesting potential of the project site is 4283.58
Cum/per annum. The rainwater is proposed to be channelized for
groundwater recharging through the Harvesting pits. 18 no’s of Rain Water
Harvesting pits are provided at four corners of the site.

4.4.2 WASTEWATER QUANTIFICATION AND CHARACTERISTICS
The wastewater generation during construction and operational phase is
described below:
A) CONSTRUCTION PHASE
Waste water generation during construction period shall be from
construction labours and construction activities. Wastewater generation
due to construction activities would be very less. Since the project lies in an
urban stretch, preference would be given to the employment of labours
Residential Complex Sri. Raavi Surya Prakash Babu, Sy.No 978 & 979,Kukatpally(v), Balanagar(M),Rangareddy(D), Telangana.
Pridhvi Envirotech (P) Ltd, Hyderabad. Page 77
local to the area. This would result in settlement of less labour colonies in
the project site and hence less wastewater generation from the transit
labour settlements. Wastewater generation from labour colonies shall not
exceed 2 KLD.
B) OPERATIONAL PHASE
During this phase, it has been assumed that 80 % of the water supplied will
be discharged as wastewater (Source: Manual on sewerage and sewage
treatment, published by Government of India). Hence approximately 140
m3 per day of domestic effluent would be generated.
Wastewater generated is expected to have characteristics and pollution
load as shown in Table 4.6.

COD Mg/l 500 mg/l it
The wastewater with the foresaid characteristics can neither be
discharged into inland surface water nor reused. Suitable treatment would
be given to the wastewater so as to meet CPCB requirements depending
upon the end use. It is proposed to install a sewage treatment plant of
capacity 180 KLD, to recover the recycled water of quality suitable for use
in flushing and gardening. A sewage treatment plant of 180 KLD capacity
based on Fluidized Aerobic Bio-Reactor (FAB) technology is proposed to
Residential Complex Sri. Raavi Surya Prakash Babu, Sy.No 978 & 979,Kukatpally(v), Balanagar(M),Rangareddy(D), Telangana.
Pridhvi Envirotech (P) Ltd, Hyderabad. Page 78
treat 170 KLD of sewage water generated in the proposed project .After
treatment the water will be used for Flushing & Gardening.
The treated wastewater shall meet the standard required for discharge on
land for horticulture. Table 4.7 gives the comparison of the standards that
would be met by the treated wastewater and quality norms prescribed for
discharge on land by irrigation.

estimate the quantum and type of waste that would be generated by
different activities due to proposed project during construction and
operation phase. The estimated quantity and quality of waste would serve
as a baseline for designing collection, transportation, treatment and
disposal options for solid waste generated due to proposed project.

estimated based on National and International standards applicable in
similar setting. The following section gives the details of the type of waste
generated by different activity, waste generation factors and assumptions
used for estimating waste generation.

Waste quantification and characterization exercise is being carried out to
estimate the quantum and type of waste that would be generated by
different activities due to the proposed project activity during the
construction and operation phase.
4.5.2 WASTE QUANTIFICATION
A) CONSTRUCTION PHASE
Construction activities create solid wastes that need to be disposed. Such
wastes include sand, concrete, gravel, stone, bricks, plastic, paper, wood,
metal and glass. According to a report prepared by the Technology
Information, Forecasting, and Assessment Council (TIFAC), estimated waste
generation during construction and demolition operations is 60 kg/m2 and
500 kg/m2 respectively (TIFAC, 2001). This waste after sorting can be used
for backfilling in the basement and for leveling purposes.
B) OPERATIONAL PHASE
Waste quantification has been carried out based on the activities
proposed in the project master plan. Waste generation factors for each
activity are as per the National and International standards applicable in
similar setting. Following section outlines details of the type of waste
generated by different activities.
Residential waste: Domestic garbage is anticipated from the residential
complex. Total solid waste estimated @ 1 Kg/day per house hold. Thus total
garbage anticipated from the complex will be 313 kg/day which is
proposed to be disposed to municipal solid waste disposal facility of MCH
through local municipal authorities. About 300 Kgs/month of solid waste
anticipated from sewage treatment plant and same will be used as
manure.

Garden and open spaces: Waste from open spaces and garden comprise
of horticultural waste that will be generated by periodical lawn mowing
and trimming of trees. Horticulture waste generated is based on the
experience in other projects with similar setting. Assumed waste generation
factor for horticulture waste is 15 kg/acre / day or .0037 kg/ sq m /day.

4.5.3 WASTE CHARACTERIZATION
Waste characterization for the proposed project has been carried out on
the basis of waste characterization studies in similar settings. The following
section details the estimated waste generation for proposed project during
construction and operation phases.
A) CONSTRUCTION PHASE
During the construction phase, a considerable quantum (90%) of waste
generated at the project site would be inert waste, which largely
comprising of clay, sand, gravel, untreated wood (natural wood, no paint),
brick, concrete, concrete block, asphalt, pipes, conduits and light steel
material. A major portion of this waste will be used for backfilling the
basement and other leveling purposes.

CHAPTER – 6
6.0 ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN
6.0 INTRODUCTION:
The Environmental Management Plan (EMP) is a site specific plan developed
to ensure that the project is implemented in an environmental sustainable
manner where all contractors and subcontractors, including consultants,
understand the potential environmental risks arising from the proposed
project and take appropriate actions to properly manage that risk. EMP also
ensures the project implementation is carried out in accordance with the
design by taking appropriate mitigative actions to reduce adverse
environmental impacts during its life cycle.
The plan outlines existing and potential problems that may adversely impact
the environment and recommends corrective measures where required. Also,
the plan outlines roles and responsibility of the key personnel and contractors
who are charged with the responsibility to manage the site.
The EMP is generally:
Prepared in accordance with rules and requirements of the MOEF and the
Telangana Pollution Control Board;
To ensure that the component of facility are operated in accordance with
the design;
Process that confirms proper operation through supervision and
monitoring;
System that addresses public inconvenience during construction and
operation of the facility; and
Residential Complex Sri. Raavi Surya Prakash Babu, Sy.No 978 & 979,Kukatpally(v), Balanagar(M),Rangareddy(D), Telangana.
Pridhvi Envirotech (P) Ltd, Hyderabad. Page 96
Plan that ensure remedial measures are implemented immediately.
The key benefits of the EMP are that it provides the organization with means
of managing its environmental performance thereby allowing it to contribute
to improved environmental quality. The other benefits include cost control as
improved relations to the stakeholders.
EMP includes four major elements;
Commitment & Policy: Project proponents will strive to provide and
implement the EMP that incorporates all issues related to air, land and
water for the project.
Planning: This includes identification of environmental impacts, legal
requirements and setting environmental objectives.
Implementation: This comprises of resources available to the developers,
accountability of contractors, training of operational staff associated with
environmental control facilities and documentation of measures to be
taken.
Measurement & Evaluation: This includes monitoring, corrective actions,
and record keeping.
It is suggested that as part of the EMP, a Monitoring Team should be formed
by the project proponent comprising of the site in-charge, project planning
group representative and project implementation team representative. This
committee’s role would be to ensure proper, operation and management of
the EMP including the regulatory compliance.
6.1 ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN
An Environmental Management Plan (EMP) will be required to mitigate the
adverse environmental impacts during construction and operation phase of
the project and these are as below:

6.1.1 EMP FOR AIR ENVIRONMENT
A) CONSTRUCTION PHASE
To mitigate the impact of PM (dust) during the construction phase of the
proposed project, the following measures are recommended for
implementation:
a dust control plan; and
Procedural changes to construction activities.
TABLE 6.1: DUST CONTROL PLAN
S.No Fugitive Dust
Source Category
Dust Control Actions
1. Earth-moving - For any earth moving which is more than
30m from all property lines, conduct
watering as necessary to prevent visible
dust emissions from exceeding 100m in
length in any direction.
2. Disturbed surface areas
(except completed
grading areas)
- Apply dust suppression in a sufficient
quantity and frequency to maintain a
stabilized surface;
- Areas, which cannot be stabilized, as
evidenced by wind driven dust, must
have an application of water at least
twice per day to at least 80 percent of
the unstabilized area.
Disturbed surface areas
(completed grading
areas)
- Apply water to at least 80 percent of all
inactive accessible disturbed surface
areas on a daily basis when there is
evidence of wind driven fugitive dust.
3. Inactive disturbed surface
areas
- Apply dust suppressants in sufficient
quantity and frequency to maintain a
stabilized surface.
Residential Complex Sri. Raavi Surya Prakash Babu, Sy.No 978 & 979,Kukatpally(v), Balanagar(M),Rangareddy(D), Telangana.
Pridhvi Envirotech (P) Ltd, Hyderabad. Page 98
4. Unpaved roads -Water all roads used for any vehicular
traffic at least twice per day of active
operations; OR
- Water all roads used for any vehicular
traffic once daily and restrict vehicle
speed to 30 kmph.
5. Open storage piles - Apply water to at least 80 percent of the
surface areas of all open storage piles on
a daily basis when there is evidence of
wind driven fugitive dust.
6. Track-out control -Downwash of trucks (especially tyres)
prior to departure from site.
The most cost-effective dust suppressant is water, because a source of water
tends to be readily available on a construction site. Water can be applied
using water trucks, handheld sprays and automatic sprinkler systems.
Furthermore, incoming loads could be covered to avoid loss of material in
transport, especially if material is transported off-site.
Procedural Changes to Construction Activities
Material Production - The transport of materials such as concrete and asphalt
to construction sites generate significant amounts of road dust, especially for
sites that are relatively far from material manufacturers. Setting up temporary
portable concrete plants and/or asphalt plants at construction sites can
eliminate haulage of materials.
Emission Control for Equipment- Control equipment such as particle filters can
be used to reduce diesel particulate matter emissions.
Idling Time Reduction - Construction equipment is commonly left idling while
the operators are on break or waiting for the completion of another task.
Residential Complex Sri. Raavi Surya Prakash Babu, Sy.No 978 & 979,Kukatpally(v), Balanagar(M),Rangareddy(D), Telangana.
Pridhvi Envirotech (P) Ltd, Hyderabad. Page 99
Emissions from idling equipment tend to be high, since catalytic converters
cool down, thus reducing the efficiency of hydrocarbon and carbon
monoxide oxidation. Existing idling control technologies, which automatically
shut the engine off after a preset time can reduce emissions, without
intervention from the operators.
Improved Maintenance - Recognizing that significant emission reductions
can be achieved through regular equipment maintenance, contractors will
be asked to provide maintenance records for their fleet as part of the
contract bid and at regular intervals throughout the life of the contract. A
monetary incentive/disincentive provision will be established to encourage
contractors to comply with regular maintenance requirements.
Reduction of On-site Construction Time - Rapid on-site construction would
reduce the duration of traffic interference and therefore, reduce emissions
from traffic delay. Off-site fabrication of structural components can also
enhance the quality of work, as the production takes place in controlled
settings and external factors such as weather and traffic do not interfere.
B) OPERATION PHASE
To mitigate the impact of pollutants from diesel generator sets during the
operational phase of the site the following measures are recommended for
implementation:
Diesel generator set emission control measures; and
Greenbelt development.
Residential Complex Sri. Raavi Surya Prakash Babu, Sy.No 978 & 979,Kukatpally(v), Balanagar(M),Rangareddy(D), Telangana.
Pridhvi Envirotech (P) Ltd, Hyderabad. Page 100
Diesel Generator Set Emission Control Measures
The most important pollutant requiring further control is NOx, as the impact of
SO2 emission is minimal because of the use of low (~0.05%) Sulphur in diesel as
fuel.
The following mitigation measures are proposed for NOx reduction:
add-on emission control technologies; and
NOx retarder
Among the above-mentioned options, inherent low NOx emissions
technologies (i.e. a temperature retarder) and better dilution through higher
stack are preferred cost effective mitigation measures. The add-on emission
control technologies are not considered as it leads to pollution transfer to
another media and shall require further mitigative measures.
Greenbelt Development
Increasing vegetation in the form of greenbelt is one of the preferred
methods to mitigate air pollution. Plants serve as a sink for pollutants, reduce
the flow of dust and reduce noise pollution.

6.1.2 EMP FOR NOISE ENVIRONMENT
A) CONSTRUCTION PHASE
To mitigate the impact of noise from construction equipment during the
construction phase of the site the following measures are recommended for
implementation:
Noise Shields - Construction equipment producing the most amount of noise
should be fitted with noise shields. This shield is a physical barrier (composed

of brick and mud, with a non reflective internal plastering), approximately 3
meters in height, which will provide adequate noise attenuation.
Time of Operation - Noisy construction equipment should not be permitted
during night hours.
Job Rotation and Hearing Protection - Workers employed in high noise areas
will be rotated. Earplugs/muffs, or other hearing protective wear will be
provided to those working very close to the noise generating machinery.
B) OPERATION PHASE
To mitigate the impact of noise from diesel generator sets during the
operational phase the following measures are recommended for
implementation:
Noise emissions control technologies; and
Greenbelt development.
Noise Emissions Control Technologies: All the diesel generators will be housed
in a suitable acoustic enclosure so that noise levels at a distance of one
meter do not exceed 75 dB(A) at 75% load (as per CPCB norms). The diesel
generator set housing will be equipped with walls and ceilings lined with glass
wool to acoustically treat the noise levels. This acoustic insulation shall be
designed to meet the mandatory standards based on a 25 dB(A) insertion
loss.
Greenbelt Development: The following species can be used in a greenbelt to
serve as noise breakers:
Tectona grandis (Teak);
Butea monosperma (Palash);
Leucana leucocephala (Subabual);
Mangifera indica (Aam); and
Dalbergia Sissoo (Shisham).

6.1.3 EMP FOR WATER ENVIRONMENT
A) CONSTRUCTION PHASE
To prevent degradation and maintain the quality of the water source,
adequate control measures have been proposed to check the surface run-
off, as well as uncontrolled flow of water into any water body. Following
management measures are suggested to protect the water quality during
the construction phase.
Avoid excavation during monsoon season.
No discharge of treated wastewater to soil and ground water body.
Waste water channels from the site would be connected to septic tank
during construction to prevent wastewater from entering the water
bodies.
To prevent surface and ground water contamination by oil/grease,
leak proof containers should be used for storage and transportation of
oil/grease. The floors of oil/grease handling area should be kept
effectively impervious. Any wash off from the oil/grease handling area
or workshop shall be drained through impervious drains, Clarifiers or
oil/water separators shall be constructed and effluent should be
treated appropriately before releasing it.
Construction activities generate disturbed soil, concrete fines, fertilizer,
oils and other wastes. On-site collection and settling of storm water,
prohibition of equipment wash downs, and prevention of soil loss and
toxic releases from the construction site are necessary to minimize
water pollution.
Residential Complex Sri. Raavi Surya Prakash Babu, Sy.No 978 & 979,Kukatpally(v), Balanagar(M),Rangareddy(D), Telangana.
Pridhvi Envirotech (P) Ltd, Hyderabad. Page 104
All stacking and loading areas should be provided with proper garland
drains equipped with baffles to prevent run off from the site to enter
any water body.
B) OPERATION PHASE
In the operation phase of the project, water conservation and development
measures need to be taken including all possible potential for conservation of
water, reuse, rainwater collection in reservoirs, and recycling of waste water.
These could be in the form of the following:
Water source Development
Minimizing water consumption
Promoting reuse of water after treatment and development of closed
loop systems for different water streams.
Water Source Development
Water source development shall be practiced by installation of scientifically
designed artificial water recharging structures. The objective is to develop the
water sources of the region, such that sustainable water supply to the
proposed project is maintained. Following methods normally do artificial
recharge;
Area Treatment
Spreading Methods
Open Well and Shafts
Drilled wells and Bore Holes
The suitability of a particular method is based on hydro-geological condition,
quality of source and proposed use of recharge water. In the proposed
Residential Complex Sri. Raavi Surya Prakash Babu, Sy.No 978 & 979,Kukatpally(v), Balanagar(M),Rangareddy(D), Telangana.
Pridhvi Envirotech (P) Ltd, Hyderabad. Page 105
project, groundwater recharge pits are planned for groundwater recharging.
It is envisaged that recharging to ground water will improve the water quality
in the area, as the rainwater is fresh and without any pollution. It is planned to
effectively harvest water by rainwater harvesting mechanism.
Minimizing Water Consumption
Water consumption will be minimized by implementing water efficient fixtures
such as 3 litres WC flushing cistern and taps to minimize the wastage of water
together with other water conservation measures. Furthermore, to ensure
ongoing water conservation, an employee education and awareness
programme will be introduced for the employee of the mall. Dry type urinals
will also be used selectively. Following section discusses the specific
measures, which shall be implemented;
Residential Usage:
Use of water efficient plumbing fixtures (ultra flow toilets and urinals,).
Water efficient plumbing fixtures use less water with no marked
reduction in quality and service. To install water less W.C. flushing
cistern helps in conserving water.
Leak detection and repair techniques
Sweep with a broom and pan where possible, rather than hose down
for external areas;
Awareness campaign to disseminate knowledge on strategies and
technologies that can be used for water conservation
New employees will be issued a standard water information packet.
The information should include water conservation plans, water
conservation methods being adopted in the complex and a list of
essential and non-essential water uses.
Residential Complex Sri. Raavi Surya Prakash Babu, Sy.No 978 & 979,Kukatpally(v), Balanagar(M),Rangareddy(D), Telangana.
Pridhvi Envirotech (P) Ltd, Hyderabad. Page 106
Office Manager will periodically remind the staff of water conservation
efforts and notify staff of recurring problems with compliance or any
changes in policy. As new conservation efforts are implemented, the
manager will communicate these changes to the employees.
Proper methods of water use will be placed in the toilets and other
areas of water consumption.
Horticulture:
Drip irrigation system shall be used for the lawns and other green area.
Drip irrigation can save between 15-40% of the water use, compared
with other watering techniques.
Plants with similar water requirements shall be grouped on common
zones to match precipitation heads and emitters.
Use of low-volume, low-angle sprinklers for lawn areas.
Select controllers with adjustable watering schedules and moisture
sensors to account for seasonal variations, and calibrate them during
commissioning.
Selecting a drought resistant grass, and using lawn chemicals and
fertilizer sparingly also reduces watering needs.
Place 3 to 5 in. of mulch on planting beds to minimize evaporation.
Promoting Reuse of Water after Treatment and Development of Closed Loop
Systems
To promote reuse of Water after Treatment and development of closed loop
system for water, segregation of two schemes namely (i) Wastewater
Treatment scheme; and (ii) Storm water management scheme have been
suggested.
Residential Complex Sri. Raavi Surya Prakash Babu, Sy.No 978 & 979,Kukatpally(v), Balanagar(M),Rangareddy(D), Telangana.
Pridhvi Envirotech (P) Ltd, Hyderabad. Page 107
Harvested storm water as discussed in earlier section, shall be utilized for
artificial recharge of ground water sources as well as to augment the project
water requirements. Recycled wastewater shall be reused on site for flushing,
and gardening.
It is estimated that reusing wastewater will save approximately 30 to 35 % of
portable water per day in the shopping mall. Following section details the
wastewater treatment scheme suggested for the project.
6.1.4 EMP FOR LAND ENVIRONMENT
A) CONSTRUCTION PHASE
Waste generated from construction activity includes construction debris,
biomass from land clearing activities (if any), waste from the labour camp,
and. other waste. The following section discusses management of each type
of waste. Besides management of topsoil is an important area for which
management measures are required.
Construction Debris
Construction debris is bulky and heavy and re-utilization and recycling is an
important strategy for management of such waste. As concrete and masonry
constitute the majority of waste generated, recycling of this waste by
conversion to aggregate can offer benefits of reduced landfill space and
reduced extraction of raw material for new construction activity. This is
particularly applicable to shopping mall project as the construction is to be
completed in a phased manner.
Recycled aggregate will be used for filler application, and as a sub-base for
internal road construction. Mixed debris with high gypsum, plaster, shall not
Residential Complex Sri. Raavi Surya Prakash Babu, Sy.No 978 & 979,Kukatpally(v), Balanagar(M),Rangareddy(D), Telangana.
Pridhvi Envirotech (P) Ltd, Hyderabad. Page 108
be used as fill, as they are highly susceptible to contamination, and will be
given to recyclers.
Construction contractors shall remove metal scrap from structural steel,
piping, concrete reinforcement and sheet metal work from the site. A
significant portion of wood scrap can be reused on site. Recyclable wastes
such as plastics, glass fiber insulation, roofing etc shall be sold to recyclers.
Solid and Other waste
Construction sites are sources of many toxic substances, such as paints,
solvents, wood preservatives, pesticides, adhesives and sealants. Such wastes
generated during construction phase shall be stored in sealed containers,
labeled, and disposed of as required by the Hazardous Wastes Management,
Handling and Transboundary Movement Amendment Rules (MoEF, 2009).
Some management practices to be developed are;
Herbicides and pesticide will not be over applied (small-scale
applications) and not applied prior to rain;
Paintbrushes and equipment for water and oil based paints shall be
cleaned within a contained area and shall not be allowed to
contaminate site soils, watercourses, or drainage systems.
Adequate storage facilities for such waste shall be provided and the
waste collection containers conveniently located. A separate
designation to earmark such waste will be made so that the waste
storage areas are away from storm drains or watercourses.
Clearly label all such waste containers with the waste being stored and
the date of generation.
Educate employees and subcontractors on waste storage and
disposal procedures.
Residential Complex Sri. Raavi Surya Prakash Babu, Sy.No 978 & 979,Kukatpally(v), Balanagar(M),Rangareddy(D), Telangana.
Pridhvi Envirotech (P) Ltd, Hyderabad. Page 109
Soil Management
Measures, which would be followed to prevent soil erosion and
contamination include - Maximize use of organic fertilizer for landscaping
and green belt development.
To prevent soil contamination by oil/grease, leak proof containers
should be used for storage and transportation of oil/grease and wash
off from the oil/grease handling area shall be drained through
impervious drains and treated appropriately before disposal.
Vegetation of bare areas after the project.
Working in a small area at a point of time (phase wise construction).
Construction of erosion prevention troughs/berms.
B) OPERATIONAL PHASE
The philosophy of solid waste management at the shopping mall will be to
encourage the four R’s of waste i.e. waste reduction, reuse, recycling, and
recovery (materials & energy). This will reduce in lesser reliance on land filling.
Regular public awareness meetings will be conducted to involve the
occupants and the employees to ensure proper segregation, storage and
collection of waste as per the Municipal Solid Waste (Management and
Handling) Rules 2000.
The Environmental Management Plan for the solid waste focuses on the
Segregation, Storage at source and Collection of the waste management
system.
Residential Complex Sri. Raavi Surya Prakash Babu, Sy.No 978 & 979,Kukatpally(v), Balanagar(M),Rangareddy(D), Telangana.
Pridhvi Envirotech (P) Ltd, Hyderabad. Page 110
Segregation and storage at source
Segregation of waste at source should be made mandatory for the complex.
Segregation or sorting waste at its source should be practiced in order to
encourage reuse/recycling. With segregation at source recyclables do not
lose their commercial value due to cross contamination.
Waste generated at the complex should be segregated as: bio degradable,
inert cum mixed waste, recyclables and waste from changing oil. The entire
waste stream from the complex should be stored and collected separately.
Collection
The Recyclables from the shopping mall would be given to the waste
itinerant buyers or rag pickers, whereas segregated bio-degradable waste
and inert cum mixed waste shall be sent to the nearest landfill site for
processing and final disposal. Wastes, such as spent oils, paint residues etc.
from the site would be collected separately & would be properly disposed
off.
6.1.5 EMP FOR BIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENT
Construction activities change the natural environment. But it also creates a
built environment for the surrounding. The project requires the
implementation of following choices exclusively or in combination.
A) CONSTRUCTION PHASE

Restrictions on location of labour camps and offices for project staff
near the project area to avoid human induced secondary additional
impacts on the flora and fauna species.
Cutting, uprooting, coppicing of trees or small trees present in and
around the project site for cooking, burning or heating purposes by the
laborers will be prohibited and suitable alternatives for this purpose will
be found.
Along the major construction work the peripheral greenbelt should be
developed, so that; it will grow to become a full-fledged green cover
by the time the construction is over.
B) OPERATION PHASE
Enhancement of current ecology at the proposed project site will entail the
following measures:
