Station which is about 21 km in SE direction from the plant site. Nearest Airport is at Jodhpur

which is approx. 113 km in West direction from the plant site.

1.3.5 Importance to the Country and Region

Driven by a booming housing sector, global demand and increased activity in infrastructure

development such as state and national highways; the cement industry has outpaced itself,

ramping up the production capacity. Going forward, these demand drivers will take the cement

demand to new heights in the next five years. Thus, this proposed expansion project is of prime

importance to country and local region.

National Importance

The Indian Cement Industry is the second largest producer of cement in the world after China

accounting for about 8% of the total global production. Cement is a cyclical commodity with a high

correlation with GDP. The housing sector is the biggest demand driver of cement, accounting for

about 67% of the total consumption. The other major consumers of cement include infrastructure

(13%), commercial construction (11%) and industrial construction (9%).Cement production increased

at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.7% to 272 Million Tonnes (MT) over FY06-13. The

domestic cement consumption is expected to increase at a CAGR of 10.2% during FY11-17.

The proposed expansion project is also expected to generate additional direct and indirect

employment opportunities for people and give State exchequer in the form of share of Central

Excise duty, Royalty on vendors and VAT annually.

Chapter - I of Final EIA / EMP Report

M/s. Shree Cement Ltd. 42 JM EnviroNet Pvt. Ltd.

Regional Importance

With a capacity of over 13 Million Tonnes Per Annum, Rajastha n accounts for over 15% of India's

cement production. With the domestic demand for cement expected to grow at 8-9 per cent

annually. Under Rajasthan Urban Infrastructure Development Project (RUIDP) Phase I large

amount of construction activity is targeted.Increasing infrastructure demand and rapid upcoming

developmental activities have resulted in the healthy consumption of the cement in the region.

Both private and governmental developmental activities including construction of highways,

roads, flyover, bridges, building apartments and townships are playing a key role in increasing

demand of cement. Thus, to meet the increasing demand, the enhancement in production

capacity is required.

In addition to above, disposal of fly ash is a n environmental concern which is faced by state

owned and thermal power plants. Cement grinding can consume up to thirty percent of fly ash

produced in the nearby power plants and thus, reduce environmental concern. There is also well

developed presence of supply chain and marketing channels. Presence of lignite for the power

development for captive consumption will too reduce the bargain power of the developer.

Hence, the proposed expansion project by the company is required to sustain SCL's current

market share in line with the market growth, ensuring supply on demand and development of this

area, which will ultimately contribute to rapid economic growth of the country.

2.2 NEED FOR THE PROJECT

Cement manufacturing Industries are one of the important sectors of the Indian Economy. The

sector has experienced phenomenal growth especially after the decontrol regime from 1999 and

greater thrust by Government on Infrastructure development and spurt in housing construction

sector has led to increased demand for cement. The cement market in India is expected to grow

at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.96 percent during the period 2014-2019.

In order to meet the increasing demand, most cement plants are making efforts to achieve higher

production levels, at times by stretching the existing production facilities and by adding additional

capacities.

Looking to the increasing demand of cement, Shree Cement Ltd. has proposed expansion of

Integrated Cement Plant at one of its units near Village: Ras, Tehsil: Jaitaran, District: Pali

(Rajasthan).

2.6 MANUFACTURING PROCESS DESCRIPTION

2.6.1 Cement Plant

Process Description

Cement Plant is based on Dry Process Technology for Cement manufacturing with Pre-Heater and

Pre- Calciner Technology. The type of cement being manufactured is OPC and PPC.

Cement Manufacturing Process:

The cement manufacturing process largely comprises of the following steps:

Transportation of crushed limestone from the mine site

Pre-blending of crushed limestone by Stacker and Reclaimer

Grinding-cum- Drying of Raw Materials and Coal/ Petcoke in VRM

Homogenization of raw meal in a blending silo

Clinkerisation of the raw meal in a rotary kiln with preheater, calciner and Cooler

Finish Grinding, storage and packing of cement

A. Transportation of Limestone

Limestone is transported from Captive Limestone Mine to the Cement Plant through covered

conveyor belt.

B. Preblending of crushed limestone by Stacker and Reclaimer

The ROM limestone stacked through stacker and reclaimed by reclaimer.

C. Grinding-cum- Drying of Raw Materials and Coal/Petcoke in VRM

Reclaimed limestone with corrective materials (sand, clay, laterite etc.) fed in VRM for grinding.

Hot air of pre-heater used for drying of raw-material.

Coal/ Petcoke is highly abrasive, therefore, its crushing is done usually in a roll crusher. The same

system is proposed to be used. Grinding of coal is done either in air swept ball mill or in vertical

roller mill. Because of saving in energy and better drying capacity VRM is proposed for use. Use of

alternate fuel (hazardous and non-hazardous) will also be considered to use for energy recovery.

These materials will be fed along with coal and per coke.

D. Homogenization of raw meal in a blending silo

The ground raw meal is conveyed to blending-cum-storage silo(s) by mechanical conveyors. The

variation in the quality of raw meal is reduced by using continuous blending silo.

E. Clinkerization of the raw meal in a rotary kiln with preheater, Calciner and Cooler

In cyclone preheater system, an efficient heat transfer takes place to finally dispersed raw

material particles by counter flow with hot gases and grinded raw meal. The preheater is multi

stage cyclone system connected with gas ducts and meal chutes. The raw meal is fed into top

stage gas duct. The material gets separated from gas in cyclones and then travels downwards and

through meal chute is discharged into next lower stage gas duct. In this way, material comes into

contact with high temperature gases and gets preheated and partially calcined and then enters

the pre-calcinator.

Proposed Expansion of Integrated Cement Plant- Clinker (11.2 to 15.0 Million TPA), Cement (8.8 to 13.2 Million TPA), WHRS (68 to 90 MW), CPP (180 MW),

Synthetic Gypsum (1560 TPD) & DG Sets (1000 to 2000 KVA)

Near Village: Ras, Tehsil: Jaitaran, District: Pali (Rajasthan)

Chapter - II of Final EIA / EMP Report

M/s. Shree Cement Ltd. 54 JM EnviroNet Pvt. Ltd.

Firing takes place in the calciner and back end of kiln called burning zone. In the calciner,

calcination takes place by firing of pulverized coal and then material is discharged to the kiln. The

feed travels down as the kiln rotates. The chemical reaction completes when the material reaches

the burning zone and cement clinker is formed.

The clinker is discharged from kiln at around 1000 Deg. C temp. and is cooled in a high efficiency

grate cooler. The cooled clinker is then transported to clinker storage silo by a set of Deep Bucket

Conveyor (DBC).

F. Final Grinding, storage and packing of cement:

Similarly, of the raw material grinding system, the grinding of clinker into cement is based on the

following technologies:

Ball mill

Roller press with ball mill.

Vertical roller mill.

In India, cement grinding is conventionally done by ball mill in close circuit using high efficiency

separators. However, due to nearly 25-30 % saving in power, the use of roller press for pre-grinding

followed by grinding in closed circuit ball mill (semi-finish grinding mode) has been used in most of

the recently installed plants. The performance feedback on the installation of VRM for cement

grinding is still awaited and yet to establish as a proven technology. Hence, based on the

performance of Cement Mill, it is proposed to install VRM / Ball mill with roller press or

combination of both VRM and ball mill.

The ground cement is conveyed to cement silos for storage of different types of cement from

where it is extracted and packed in HDPE bags by electronic rotary packing machines and

dispatched to consumers by road and railway. Mechanized loading system for loading of packed

bags on trucks and wagon is envisaged.

2.6.2 Waste Heat Recovery Power Plant (90 MW)

There is a good amount of waste heat available from the expelled gases of Pre-Heaters (PH) and

Air Quenched Coolers (AQC) of both Units I and II. The main energy used in cement plant consists

of heat energy and electrical energy and about 90% of the total energy is used as heat energy in

clinker burning process. In the clinker burning process, a large amount of heat is consumed for

burning limestone at more than 1450oC to form clinker. From the total heat consumed in the

burning process, around 55% is for burning process and the rest 45% is discharged as sensible heat

through the exhaust gases of Pre-Heater(PH), AQC, radiation and sensible heat carried out by

clinker.

However, around 10% of the heat, extracted from the PHs and AQCs, is used in drying the raw

material and coal while grinding. The rest 35% is generally emitted to the atmosphere as waste

heat. For reutilization of this wasted heat from the exhaust gases of the PH and AQC this Waste

Heat Recovery System is used to generate the electrical power. A typical heat flow in cement

plants with waste heat recovery system is shown below

Considering the above we have decided to install one Waste Heat Recovery Boiler (WHRB) at kiln

Pre-heater and one Waste Heat Recovery Boiler (WHRB) at AQC (Mid tap-off) in each Units. Steam

generated by each unit make combined and fed to steam turbine for Electricity generation. In this

scheme Waste Heat Recovery Boiler (WHRB) at Kiln Pre-heater will be installed. In normal

condition the flue gas from the top of the Pre-heater directly goes to ESP / bag house. Now the

flue gas from the top of the Pre-heater will go to the WHRB and after that it will enter to ESP / Bag

house.

Chemistry of Synthetic Gypsum Production

Synthetic Gypsum is made by the reaction of Lime Powder with Sulphuric Acid to convert calcium

oxide to Calcium Sulphate form. This reaction can be represented by the following chemical

reaction, which is the major reaction.

1. Major reaction:

CaCO3 + H2SO4 + H2O CaSO4.2H2O + CO2

The Gypsum (Calcium Sulphate) contains about 7-8% moisture, the chemical impact of acid on

Limestone liberates a large amount of steam, which entrains fine particulates of Limestone and

acidic fumes, most of which originates from impurities in the Limestone.

2. Minor reactions:

MgO+ + H2SO4 Mg SO4 + H2O

Fe2O3+3H2SO4 Fe2 (SO4) 3+ 3 H2O

Al2O3+3H2SO4 Al2(SO4) 3 + 3 H2O

3. Pollution reaction:

Cl2 + 2NaOH 2NaCl + H2O

CO2 + 2NaOH Na2CO3 + H2O

Both Chloride and CO2 are gases at ambient temperature and pressure and collected in the Den by

scrubbing system. The Chloride evolution is about 0.01% Chlorine in the Limestone.

Raw Material

Limestone 30% -50% CaO Limestone Powder

Acid 98% Concentrated acid, 70% Spent acid.

Water Recycled Water, Fresh Water

Mixer

The name itself suggests the function of the equipment. In the mixer the Limestone, 98% H2SO4

acid and water are mixed to form slurry. The optimum ratio is

Limestone 55.00 to 62% depending on Lime quality.

98% H2SO4 40.00 to 42.00%

Water 35 .00%

About 50 to 60% concentration is used for getting the better conversion. The retention time is

about 3-4 minute.

Den

The Den is horizontal tunnel through which the slurry of acid and Limestone proceeds on a slowly

moving slatted conveyor, which is also known as broadfield den. The resistance time is typically an

hour. During this time cake formation takes place. The gases are evolved in the process of

Gypsum production, which are scrubbed with the help of three stage scrubbing system.

Storage and Curing of Gypsum

The Gypsum material is transferred from Den to storage piles through EOT Crane, where further

curing takes place. It contains about 10% moisture and during this maturing stage the moisture

content reduces. It is reshuffled with crane for further processing or dispatched in bulk or packed

form. Curing of Gypsum takes 1 week.

Land, Plantation, Railway Line, Road Network, Forest Land, Stony Waste Land, Open Land etc. as

per NRSC Guide Line.

Definitions of LULC Classes

(Reference- National Remote Sensing Centre Guideline)

Agriculture Land: These are the lands primarily used for farming and for production of food, fiber,

and other commercial and horticultural crops. It includes land under crops (Irrigated and non-

irrigated, Fallow, Plantation etc.)

Crop Land: These are the areas with standing crop as on date of satellite overpass. Cropped areas

appear in bright red to red in color with varying shape and size in a contiguous to non-contiguous

pattern. Three cropping seasons exist in India viz., Kharif (June/July-September/October), Rabi

(November-December-February-march) and Zaid (April-May).

Fallow Land: These are the lands, which are taken up for cultivation but are temporarily allowed to

rest, un-cropped for one or more seasons. Fallow land is categorized in two classes which Current

Fallow and Long Fallow.

Current Fallow Land: These are the cropland areas, which are un-cropped during the agriculture

year under consideration as on the date of satellite overpass.

Long Fallow Land: These are the croplands areas, which are un-cropped for Two to Four

Agriculture Years from the base year.

3.4.4.2 Generation and Analysis of Data

Geo-referencing of the Survey of India Toposheet

Scanned surveys of India Toposheets were registered in geographic lat/long projection system

with the help of ERDAS imagine software and re-project in UTM WGS 84 with respective zone.

Geo-Referencing of the Satellite Imagery

Registered Toposheets is used as a reference map for Geo-Referencing of Raw satellite imagery

by taking suitable Ground Control Points (GCP) like intersection point of railway, Road network,

Canal intersection and some other permanent features.

Figure 3.2: Geo-Referencing of Satellite Image using SOI Toposheet

Enhancement of Satellite Image

Satellite data is composed of substantial noise and haze errors due to various environmental

factors, which affect the amount of reflectance (information) that can be deciphered. Since

mapping of satellite images is based on spectral signatures, it is necessary to normalize the

redundant values into near true values. This process of deriving true reflectance values is known

as normalization. This enhances interpretability of the satellite image thereby facilitating better

identification of land features viewed on satellite imagery. Histogram equalization and radiometric

correction has been used for satellite image enhancement.

Figure 3.3: Difference between Original Image and Radiometrically Enhanced Images

Base Map Layer Creation

Base map has been prepared using Survey of India Toposheet as a reference map on 1:50000

scale. In base layer linear and point feature like road, rail, canal, village location and other

secondary information have been created in vector data format with the help of ArcGIS Software.

Data Analysis and Classification Using Digital Interpretation Technique

Image interpretation is the process of identifying objects or conditions in images and determining

their meaning or significance. Satellite imagery are composed of array of grid; each grid has a

numeric value that is known as digital number. Smallest unit of this grid is known as a pixel that

captures reflectance of ground features represented in terms of Digital number, which represent

a specific land features.

Using image classification technique, the satellite data is converted into thematic information map

based on the user s knowledge about the ground area.

Hybrid technique has been used i.e. visual interpretation and digital image processing for

identification of different land use and vegetation cover classes based on spectral signature of

geographic feature. Spectral signature represents various land use classes. Image interpretation

keys are developed for better Interpretation/Classification scheme which is Shape, Size, Color,

Tone, Texture Pattern, Association etc. Based on the Interpretation key and Spectral Signature

Entire satellite imagery is classified in different classes like Water Bodies, Crop land, Fallow Land,

Human Settlement, Industrial Area, Mine Quarry, Scrub Land, Plantation, Railway Line, Road

Network, Forest Land, Stony Waste Land, Open Land etc.

Ground Data Collection and Verification

Ground truth/ field verification is an important component in mapping and its validation exercise.

Utmost care and planning is required for collecting ground data and verification. To facilitate a

good ground truthing exercise the following steps were followed:

o Identifying and listing all the doubtful areas for the ground verification and referring all such

areas with respect to the toposheet to know their geographical location and accessibility on

the ground.

o Field traverse plan was prepared to cover maximum doubtful areas in the field in such a way

that each traverse covers, as many land use and land cover classes as possible, apart from

the doubtful areas

o The sufficient number of points were covered for each Land Use Class as required for

quality checking as well as accuracy assessment.

Error Fixing / Reclassification

Reclassification of Land Use classes was done on the basis of data collected / verified during

ground truthing.

Final Map Generation

Final maps are generated for the core area as well as Buffer area. 3 Pixels is Filtered using Clump

and Eliminate Process after ensuring to maintain crucial classes of importance. Base map layers

are overlaid on the classified raster data and then thematic maps are generated on the layout

consisting of Project name, legend, source of data, Index map, scale bar and North arrow.

3.4.4.2.1 Land Use / Land Cover Details of Core Zone

A hybrid technique has been used i.e. visual interpretation and digital image processing to

generate output Land use and Land cover map of the core zone as well as 10 km buffer area on

3.4.5 Observation of the LULC Data

In the core zone, 20.20% of the area falls under green belt / plantation while 50.80% is open

land. 28.30% falls under industrial area. Barely, 0.70% of the area is under water bodies

(Rainwater Harvesting Pond).

The study area mainly comprises of fallow land which constitutes 39.47% of the total area

Thus, other classes occupy only 60.53% of the total area. The second largest area falls under

stony area which constitutes 34.98% of total study area.

There are 2 rivers i.e. Lilri River (Seasonal) which falls at the distance of approx. 1.5 Km in

North direction and Sukri River at approx. 8.0 Km in SSW direction from plant site. There is

only one Reserve Forest (~5.0 Km in SSE direction) and one Protected Forest (~9.9 Km in SE

direction) within 10 Km radius of study area.

Mine Site is located adjacent to the plant site.

Village Nimbeti, Bhimgarh, Kanyakheri, Ras, Patan, Kundal etc. are the nearest villages from

the plant site.

There are no National Park, Wild Life Sanctuary, Biosphere Reserve etc. within 10 km radius of

the study area.

3.4.6 Identification of Impacts on Land Use Pattern Due to Project Activity

Impact on Core Zone

Total plant area is 231.54 ha including existing plant (187.56) and additional area (43.98 ha)

within plant boundary and proposed expansion will be done within the existing plant

premises.

Infrastructure facilities are already present in the existing cement plant; additional may be

developed on the basis of requirement

Impact on Buffer Zone

There will be increase in the vehicular movement due to the proposed expansion activity

Main impact on the agriculture land will be on surrounding Villages such as Nimbeti,

Bhimgarh, Kanyakheri, Ras, Patan, Kundal etc

Presently 1.86% area is covered by human settlement but due to continuous population

growth, agriculture land will be converted into residential area. The rate of land use change

will depend on the population growth and socio-economic status of the study area

3.4.7 Recommendations

Adequate and Efficient air pollution control equipments have been installed to maintain the

pollution level within limits.

Thick Greenbelt / Plantation has already been developed and will be enhanced and

additional green belt / plantation will be developed in the plant area and along the roads, so

that dust emission impacts can be minimized on surrounding agriculture field.

The following practices will be carried out to increase the productivity of the study area:

o Awareness for new methodologies of the agricultural practices viz. mixed farming, crop

rotation and agricultural cropping pattern suitable for the area

o Providing seeds, manure and fertilizers from different sources

o Rainwater harvesting practices will be encouraged which will lead to ground water

recharge and ultimately increased productivity in the study area

3.4.8 Conclusion

Remote Sensing data provides real time information pertaining to aspects of Land use / Land

cover. Precise quantitative information could be extracted about existing land use / land cover in

context to spatial dimension. Integration of various data layers gives proper understanding of the

problems.

3.4.9 Digital Elevation Model

Digital Elevation Models are data files that contain the elevation of the terrain over a specified

area, usually at a fixed grid interval over the "Bare Earth". The intervals between each of the grid

points will always be referenced to some geographical coordinate system. This is usually either

latitude-longitude or UTM (Universal Transverse Mercator) coordinate systems. The closer

together the grid points are located, the more detailed the information will be in the file. The

details of the peaks and valleys in the terrain will be better modeled with small grid spacing than

when the grid intervals are very large. Elevations other than at the specific grid point locations are

not contained in the file. As a result, peak points and valley points not coincident with the grid will

not be recorded in the file. For practical purpose, this "Bare Earth" DEM is generally synonymous

with a Digital Terrain Model (DTM).

DEM has been prepared for Cement plant of Shree Cement Ltd. for 10 km radius study area.

3.4.9.1 Data Used

1st Stage:

The first processing stage involves importing and merging the 1-degree tiles into continuous

elevational surfaces in Arc GRID format.

2nd Stage:

Re-sampling the data at 23 m is done and a contour interval of 10m through the usual process of

interpolation is created.

3rd Stage:

SRTM data is converted in grid format through Arc GIS 9.2 to obtain elevation information of

study area. Contours are then generated at 10 m interval through 3D analyst of Arc GIS and then

are interpolating with raster data.

4th Stage:

Integration of DEM with contour map showing 3D view for analysis of surface is done.

Digital Elevation Model (DEM) of the Study Area with Contour Map and 3-D View DEM is given in

Figure - 3.6 and 3.7, respectively.

3.4.9.3 Interpretation

It is very clear from the DEM that the elevation varies from 317 m to 533 m in the whole study area,

having the contour interval of about 20 m. The areas in the SW portion have generally higher

elevation which constitutes Open Scrub land while the low lying areas are generally used for

agricultural purposes and habitation. The contour over the DEM shows that the plant site is in the

elevation range of 374 m to 400 m present on the flat land.

3.5 SEISMICITY AND FLOOD HAZARD ZONATION OF THE AREA

3.5.1 Seismicity of the Area

Many parts of the Indian subcontinent have historically high seismicity. Seven catastrophic

earthquakes of magnitude greater than 8 (Richter scale) have occurred in the western, northern

and eastern parts of India and adjacent countries in the past 100 years.

Approx. 59 % of the land area of India is liable to seismic hazard damage. In India, seismic zones

are divided into four zones i.e. V, IV, III and II. Details of the seismic zone are given in Table - 3.4.

Table - 3.4

Seismic Zones in India

S. No. Seismic Zone Risk Intensity on MMI scale

1. Zone - V Very High Risk Zone IX & above

2. Zone - IV High Risk Zone VIII

3. Zone - III Moderate Risk Zone VII

4. Zone - II Low Risk Zone VI & below

Source: IMD & NIDM

Rajasthan has not had a major earthquake in recent years, though small to moderate earthquake

have been felt in the state. Several faults have been identified in this region out of which many

show evidence of movement during the Holocene epoch. The Cambay Graben terminates in the

south-western part of the state. The Konoi Fault near Jaisalmer trends in a north-south direction

and was associated with the 1991 Jaisalmer earthquake. Several active faults criss-cross the

Aravalli range and lie parallel to each other. The most prominent of them is the north-south

trending Sardar Shahar Fault and the Great Boundary Fault which runs along the Chambal River

and then continues in the same direction into Uttar Pradesh. However, it must be stated that

proximity to faults does not necessarily translate into a higher hazard as compared to areas

located further away, as damage from earthquakes depends on numerous factors such as

subsurface geology as well as adherence to the building codes.

The plant site as well as study area lies in Zone - II of Seismic Zoning Map of India, updated by India

Metrological Department (IMD) and National Institute of Disaster Management (NIDM), and thus

can be said to be located in an area of Low Risk Zone by national standards. Seismic Zoning Map

of India showing the plant site (Pali) is given in Figure - 3.8.

3.7 METEOROLOGY

Meteorology plays a vital role in determining the transport and diffusion pattern of air pollutants

released into atmosphere. The principal variables include horizontal convective transport (average

wind speed and direction), vertical convective transport (atmospheric stability) and topography of

the area.

Meteorological characteristics of an area are very much important in assessing possible

environmental impacts and in preparing environmental management plan.

Since meteorological factors show wide fluctuations with time, meaningful interpretation can be

drawn only from long-term reliable data. Such source of data is India Meteorological Department

(IMD), which maintains a network of meteorological stations at several important locations.

The nearest IMD station to the plant site is located in Ajmer. The Meteorological data i.e.

temperature, relative humidity, rainfall, wind speed, and wind direction, recorded at two synoptic

hours i.e. 08:30 and 17:30 for Summer Season (March to May, 2015) was obtained from this station

to study meteorology of the study area.

3.7.1 Micro-Meteorology at Site

Meteorological station was set-up at site to record surface meteorological parameter during

Summer Season (March to May, 2015).

Wind speed and wind direction data recorded during the study period has enabled identifying the

influence of meteorology on the air quality of the area. Based on the collected meteorological

data, relative percentage frequencies of different wind directions were calculated and plotted as

wind roses for twenty four hour duration. Maximum and minimum temperatures including

percentage relative humidity were also recorded simultaneously.

It was observed that the predominant overall wind pattern for the study period was from SW

direction. Wind speed during this period varied from 0.1 m /sec. to 6.2 m / sec. Wind Rose Diagram

showing the wind pattern during the study period is shown in Figure - 3.11. There was not much

rainfall during the study period at site; total rainfall during the study period at Pali is 34 mm only

(Source: wunderground.com).

Summary of the micro-meteorology at site is given in Table - 3.6. Detailed Hourly Meteorological

Data has been enclosed as Annexure - 4 with this EIA / EMP Report.

3.8 AMBIENT AIR ENVIRONMENT

Ambient air quality monitoring is done to determine the general background concentration levels.

Samples were collected in the 10 km study area to observe pollution trends throughout the

region. It helps in providing a data base for evaluation of effects of a project activity in that region.

It will be also useful in ascertaining the quality of air environment in conformity to standards of

the ambient air quality during operation phase of project.

Methodology

The air quality monitoring and survey (Plant and Mine) was done during Summer Season i.e.

March to May, 2015, within 10 km radius study area as per the Terms of Reference (ToR) issued by

MoEFCC, New Delhi vide their letter no. J - 11011/343/2012-IA II (I) dated 10th Feb., 2016.

The samples were collected for the following air quality determinants:

Sulphur Dioxide (SO2)

Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx)

Particulate Matter (PM10 and PM2.5)

Carbon Monoxide (CO)

The sources of air pollution in the region are dust rising from unpaved roads, domestic fuel

burning, vehicular traffic, agricultural activities, emission from other industries, etc.

Sampling Schedule

The sampling was done continuously for 24 hours for SO2, NOx, PM10 and PM2.5 with a frequency of

twice a week for three months (24 observations for one location). The details of measurement

methodology and test procedure are given in Chapter - VI (Environmental Monitoring Programme)

of this report.

Sampling Locations

Sampling locations were selected for AAQ Monitoring keeping in view the pre-dominant wind

direction prevailing in the area during the study period.

It can be observed from the wind rose diagram (Figure - 3.11) that the predominant wind direction

during the study period was from SW. Villages / locations have been selected in the downwind

direction as well as in the upwind direction for AAQ monitoring from the plant and mine site.

Monitoring stations selected for Ambient Air Quality Monitoring during the study period are given

in Table - 3.7 and shown in Figure - 3.12.

3.12 BIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENT

3.12.1 Introduction

The biological study is essential to understand the impact of industrialization and urbanization on

existing flora and fauna of the study area. Studies on various aspects of ecosystem play an

important role in identifying sensitive issues for undertaking appropriate action to mitigate the

impact, if any.

The biological study was undertaken as a part of the EIA study report to understand the present

status of ecosystem prevailing in the study area, to compare it with past condition with the help

of available data, to predict changes in the biological environment as a result of present activities

and to suggest measures for maintaining its health.

A baseline study / survey was conducted to study the floristic and faunal diversity of the terrestrial

and aquatic environment of the study area within 10 km radius of the plant and mine site.

Some of the information was gathered from the local habitants. All the collected data were

classified to interpret the impact of pollution on the flora and fauna of that region.

Survey of the wild plants as well as cultivated crop plants was made and all the available

information was recorded. Night survey was also conducted with the help of spotlight to record

nocturnal animals, birds and reptiles.

Secondary data on flora and fauna, cropping patterns etc. were also collected from available

literatures, internet, forest department and revenue department.

3.12.2 Ecological Sensitive Area

No National Park, Wildlife Sanctuary, Biosphere Reserve exists within 10 km radius of the plant

site.

Only one Reserve Forest falls at a distance of ~5.0 km in SSE direction from the plant site and one

Protected Forest falls at a distance of ~9.9 Km in SE direction from the plant site.

3.12.3 Flora

Flora of an area depends on climatic conditions, topography, rainfall, soil type, land use and

demography of an area. These factors highly affect the floral cover and quality of an area.

A floral survey was carried out in the core as well as buffer zone of the plant and mine site. The

plant species found in the area are given in Table - 3.19.

3.13 SOCIO-ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT

Socio-economic environment is an essential part of environmental study which incorporates

various facts related to socio-economic conditions in the area and deals with the total

environment.

Socio - economic study includes demographic structure of the area, provision of basic amenities

viz. housing, education, health and medical services, occupation, water supply, sanitation,

communication, transportation, prevailing diseases pattern as well as feature of aesthetic

significance such as temples, historical monuments etc. at the baseline level. This would help in

visualizing and predicting the possible impact depending upon the nature and magnitude of the

project.

Socio-economic study of an area provides a good opportunity to assess the socio-economic

conditions of an area. This study will possibly estimate the change in living and social standards of

the particular area benefitted due to the project. The gross economic production of the area will

be increased substantially due to the existence of this project. It can undoubtedly be said that this

plant will provide direct and indirect employment and improve the infrastructural facilities and

living standards of the area.

The fabrics of socio-economic changes are so complicated that this study would seem to be

extremely limited, almost superficial and at times subjective in nature. This EIA will give a

reasonably clear picture of the socio-economic conditions prevailing in the study area.

3.13.1 Objectives of the Study

The objectives of this socio-economic report consist of:

To know the current socio-economic situation in the region

To recommend practical strategic interventions in the sector

To help in providing better living standards

3.13.2 Scope of Work

To study the Socio-economic Environment of area from the secondary sources

Prediction of project impact

Mitigation Measures

3.13.3 Methodology

Collection of Data

Data for this project were collected via secondary source (i.e. Government department, maps,

literature research etc.) in the study area.

Presentation of Data and Analysis

The data collected were presented in a suitable, concise form for further analysis. The collected

data were presented in the form of tabular or diagrammatic or graphic form. These tabulated data

were interpreted and analyzed with the help of various qualitative techniques and ideographic

approaches.

CHAPTER - IV

ANTICIPATED ENVIRONEMNTAL IMPACTS AND MITIGATION MEASURES

4.1 ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STUDY

The anticipated environmental impacts of the proposed expansion of cement project would be

mainly due to the construction and operational activities.

These operations can disturb the environment in various ways, such as change in air, noise level;

water and soil quality of that particular area. While for the purpose of development and economic

up-liftment of people, there is need for establishment of industries, but these have to be

environmental friendly. Therefore, it is essential to assess the impacts of proposed expansion

project on different environmental parameters, so that abatement measures could be planned in

advance for eco-friendly operation of Cement Project, Captive Thermal Power Plant and Synthetic

Gypsum Plant in the area.

4.2 IMPACT DUE TO PROPOSED EXPANSION ACTIVITY

Impacts due to any project activity have been divided according to the temporal scale into

Impacts during Construction Phase and Impacts during Operation Phase .

The impacts on different environmental parameters, due to the proposed expansion project, will

be due to various activities carried out during construction phase and operation phase;

Construction activity spreads over pre-construction, machinery installation and commissioning

stages and ends with the induction of manpower and start-up. During operation phase of the

proposed expansion project, the impacts will be mostly permanent and irreversible in nature.

4.3 ANTICIPATED IMPACTS DURING CONSTRUCTION PHASE

Total plant area is 231.54 ha (which includes 187.56 ha existing plant area and 43.98 ha additional

area within plant boundary); 72.7 ha area is also available outside the plant boundary for future

use. Proposed expansion will be done on additional area available within the plant boundary.

During construction, the activities related to land de-weeding, leveling of site and construction of

building structures and installation of machineries and equipments will lead to emission of

particulate matter. Construction activities during this stage will temporarily alter the environment

of the nearby area due to movement of heavy machineries and vehicles.

4.3.1 Impact on Topography and Land Use

Topography of the site is generally flat with an elevation range of 374 - 400 m. Some level of

cutting and filling will need to be done to maintain an even topography within the plant area. No

major change in topography of the site is envisaged due to proposed expansion project.

The present land use of the plant site is industrial; proposed expansion will be done on additional

area within the existing plant premises by, thus, there is no change of the land use of the area.

Apart from the temporary change in soil profile within the plant site, there will not be any adverse

impact on the surrounding land use during the construction period.

4.3.2 Impact on Air Quality

Dust emissions are the major emissions during construction phase. The main sources of dust

emission are the movement of equipment at site, leveling, grading, earthwork and foundation

works. Exhaust emissions from vehicles and equipment to be deployed during the construction

phase is also likely to result in marginal increase in the levels of SO2, NOxand CO. The impact will be

for short duration. This will be confined within the plant boundary and is expected to be negligible

outside the plant boundary. The impact will, however, be reversible, marginal and temporary in

nature.

Construction equipment having PUC certificate will be deployed during the activity to restrict

exhaust emission. Proper maintenance of vehicles and construction equipment will help in

controlling the gaseous emissions. Water sprinkling on roads and construction site will prevent

fugitive dust.

In addition to above, dust will also be generated from stockpiles of construction material

(aggregates and sand). To prevent this, stockpiles will be aligned properly with slopes stabilized

and max. height will be maintained.

4.3.3 Impact on Noise Levels

During construction phase, noise will be generated due to following activities / processes:

Movement /operation of transport and construction vehicles / equipment

Transportation of equipment, materials and people

Other important activities involved in construction stage such as excavation, earthmoving,

compaction, concrete mixing, crane operation, steel erection, mechanical /electrical

installation

Piling work during laying down of foundation for infrastructure

The noise generation during construction phase will be temporary and will be limited to the plant

site. The vehicles used for movement will be taken for preventive maintenance to reduce noise

generation at source.

4.3.4 Impact on Water Resources and Water Quality

The water requirement during the construction phase will be approximately 200 KLD.

Groundwater will be stored in RCC tank / overhead and used in civil construction, canteen, besides

domestic use by construction workers. Construction workers will be brought from nearby villages.

About 20 KLD of wastewater will be generated from the construction site. The wastewater will be

taken to Soakpit and septic tank. The treated wastewater will be recycled for civil construction

and greenbelt development / plantation purpose. Storm water drains will be made immediately

after starting construction activity. The drains will be properly aligned in conformity with the site

drainage pattern so that the alteration is kept to the minimum and flooding or soil erosion does

not occur.

Sedimentation pits will be provided at appropriate location to trap the silt laden runoff water and

prevent excessive silt from going outside. The storm water drains will be diverted to a water

reservoir to collect the runoff. This stored water will be utilized for civil construction purpose.

Thus, there will not be any discharge from the site which can have any impact on the water

quality.

4.3.5 Impact on Soil

During construction activity, the impact on soil will be limited to the construction site only. Impact

on soil during construction would be mainly due to the left out of construction material used.

Careful design, planning and good site management would minimize wastage of materials such as

concrete, mortars and cement grouts. Construction wastes will be segregated as much as possible

at site itself to increase the feasibility of recycling concrete and masonry as filling material and

steel pieces as saleable scrap.

Litter disposal and collection points will be established around the work sites. Empty packaging

materials, drums, glass, tin, paper, plastic, pet bottles, wood, thermocol and other packaging

materials, etc. will be disposed through recyclers (locally called kabadis). The construction spoils

will be temporarily stored at designated dumpsite located inside the plant premises.

4.3.6 Impact on Socio-Economic Environment

The social impact during the construction stage will be of beneficial nature. About 500 people will

get employment during the construction stage on daily average basis. Proposed expansion

project will result in growth of the surrounding areas by increased direct and indirect employment

opportunities in the region including ancillary development and supporting infrastructure.

Local people will be given preference for employment on the basis of their skill and experience.

Further, the project will also lead to the development of market, trade centers, activities etc.

4.4 ANTICIPATED IMPACTS DURING OPERATION PHASE AND PROPOSED MITIGATION MEASURES

The process involved in the proposed expansion of cement production capacity has varying

impacts on the different components of the environment. All these impacts will be considered for

impact assessment and accordingly the mitigation measures will be adopted. The design basis for

all process units will lay special emphasis on measures to minimize the impact at source itself.

4.4.1 Impact on Land Use Pattern

Total plant area is 231.54 ha and proposed expansion will be done on additional area available

within the existing plant premises. Therefore, no change in existing land use pattern within the

core zone is envisaged, except for green area, which will be increased during plant operation. At

present, plantation has been done in 63.8 ha (34%of the total existing plant area i.e. 187.5), and

additional 14.5 ha will be further developed for this proposed expansion.

4.4.2 Impact on Air Quality and Mitigation Measures

4.4.2.1 Impact due to operation of proposed expansion project

The operational phase of the proposed expansion project comprises of various activities each of

which will have an impact on air quality. The impact on air quality can be due to:

Fugitive emissions

Stack emissions

A) Fugitive Emissions

Fugitive emissions in cement plant is due to various process and non-process related activities which

are given below:

Process related activities

Material Handling and Transfer

o Loading and unloading operation of raw material and finished product

o Transfer operations (Transfer Points)

o Silos Vent

Milling Operations

o Primary and Secondary crushing of limestone, coal and petcoke

o Grinding of clinker, fly ash and gypsum

Non-process related activities

Vehicular Traffic

o Movement of raw material and finished product by trucks / trailer from main gate to

designated place inside the plant and vice-versa

o Movement of personnel vehicles

Material Storage

o Material (e.g. limestone) stored in open yard

Adequate pollution control measures have been / will be taken to keep the fugitive emissions from all

sources within the statutory norms, brief of which are given below:

Limestone is being / will be transported to cement plant from crusher via covered conveyor

belt.

A set of water spray nozzles is being / will be provided over the conveyor belt in the stacker

feed point.

Bag filters is being / will be installed at all material transfer points.

Sprinkling of water on roads is being / will be done.

Regular cleaning and sweeping of roads, near-by area of storage yard etc. is being / will be

done.

Details on fugitive emission control measures is given in Chapter - X of this EIA/EMP Report.

B) Stack Emissions

In a cement plant, the major emission from stack is Particulate Matter (PM) emissions. In addition,

gaseous pollutants (SO2, NOx and CO) are also anticipated from stack emissions andvehicular

emissions.

Efficient Air Pollution Control Equipment (APCE) like Bag House / Bag Filter / ESP is being / will be

installed at all major stacks to keep the emissions within the permissible limits.

Pyro-process itself acts as a long SO2 scrubber. Kiln with pre heater /Calciner removes 70-95% SO2

emissions. Installation of a good burner system will provide improved combustion efficiency of

the fuel and also avoid flame impingement on the raw materials.

NOx generation takes place at high temperature and excess air. Low NOx burner is being / will be

installed for fuel burning along with calciner for low NOx formation.

Vehicles and machineries is being / will be regularly maintained. Proper upkeep and maintenance of

vehicles is being / will be done.

Hence, the overall quality of the ambient air will be maintained within the limit prescribed by

CPCB/SPCB after the commencement of the operation of proposed expansion project.

4.4.2.2 Air Quality Predictions through Mathematical Modeling

The present study assesses the impact on air environment due to Expansion of Integrated Cement

Project - Clinker (10.4 to 15.0 Million TPA), Cement (8.8 to 13.2 Million TPA), WHRS (68 to 90 MW),

CPP (180 MW) along with Synthetic Gypsum Unit (1560 TPD) and DG Sets (1000 to 2000 KVA) near

Village: Ras, Tehsil: Jaitaran, District: Pali, Rajasthan by M/s. Shree Cement Ltd. (SCL).

This report gives the peak incremental ground level concentrations of PM, SO2 and NOx up to a

distance of 10 km radius from the plant site and also the cumulative peak incremental

concentrations of PM10 due to proposed expansion activities of plant and captive mine of SCL.

The concentrations have been predicted in all directions covering all types of weather conditions.

Spatial distributions of all the pollutants are also presented in the form of Isopleths.

4.4.2.2.1 Air Pollution Modeling

Prediction of impacts on air environment has been carried out employing mathematical model

based on a steady state Gaussian plume dispersion model designed for multiple point sources for

short term. In the present case, AERMOD version 8.1 dispersion model based on steady state

gaussian plume dispersion, designed for multiple point sources and developed by United States

Environmental Protection Agency [USEPA] has been used for simulations from Industrial sources.

4.4.2.2.2 Pollutants/Model Options Considered for Computations

The model simulations deal with major pollutant Particulate Matter (PM), SO2 and NOx emitted

from the proposed expansion project of cement plant. Particulate matter (PM) pollutants in case

of limestone mining activity have been only considered and there is no major fuel combustion

during the mining activity. Hence, gaseous emission has not been considered for mining activity.

c) Area Emission Source

The emissions from the proposed captive mine have been computed using empirical factor given

in Indian Mining and Engineering Journal . The details of emission computed from mining

operations are given below:

Existing Limestone Mine (ML Area: 750 ha)

Total Limestone Handling in the mine is 79062.5 TPD on the basis of 320 working days per annum.

Per hour handling of limestone (on the bases of 24 hr/day operation or three shifts) is 3294.2 t/ hr.

Total OB Handling in the mine is 34954 TPD on the basis of 320 working days per annum. Per hour

handling of OB (on the basis of 24 hr/day operation) is 1456 t/ hr.

Total handling of material will be 4750.61 t/ hr.

Rate of emission being 23.6 kg/ hr for handling 1000 ton the emission rate shall be

= 4750.61 X 23.6 = 112.11 kg/hr or 31.14 gm/ sec

1000

The above mentioned emission rates are uncontrolled emissions. Due to installation and operation

of dust control measures at mining site, the emissions will be one third of established emissions.

This is based on experience and literature. Accordingly, rates considered, in the mathematical

modelling is equal to 10.38 gm/sec (31.14/3).

The emission rates and conditions have been summarized in Table below.

4.4.2.2.5 Modeling Procedure

Prediction of ground level concentrations (GLC s) due to proposed expansion of Cement plant has

been made by AERMOD version 8.1 as per CPCB guidelines. It is US-EPA approved model to predict

the air quality. The model uses rural dispersion and regulatory defaults options as per guidelines on air

quality models (PROBES/70/1997-1998). For this study, uniform polar receptors on flat terrain have

been assumed.

Meteorological inputs required are hourly wind speed and direction, ambient temperature, stability

class, and mixing height. The model details are as follows:

4.4.2.2.6Gaussian Plume Model

The AERMOD version 8.1 model is based on a numerical integration over the area in the upwind and

cross wind directions of Gaussian plume formula. This can be applied to the Point, Area, Line, Volume

sources (and other forms of area sources) simultaneously and their resultant incremental

concentration of the pollutant can be predicted.

4.4.2.2.7 Extrapolation of Wind Speed

Wind speed at stack level is calculated by power law as given below.

Ustack = U10(Stack height/10) p

Where U10 is the wind speed at 10 meter level and p is the power law coefficient (0.07, 0.07, 0.10, 0.15,

0.35 and 0.55 for stability classes A,B,C,D,E and F respectively) as per Irwin for rural areas (USEPA,

1987).

4.4.2.2.8 Stability Classification

Hourly stability is determined by wind direction fluctuation method as suggested by Slade (1965) and

recommended by CPCB (PROBES/70/1997-1998).

a = Wdr/6

a, is standard deviation of wind direction fluctuation, Wdr is the overall wind direction fluctuation or

width of the wind direction in degrees. The table for stability classes is given as under:

Stability Class σa (degree)

A > 22.5

B 22.4 17.5

C 17.4 12.5

D 12.4 7.5

E 7.4 3.5

F < 3.5

4.4.2.2.9 Dispersion Parameters

Dispersion parameters y and z for open country conditions (Briggs, 1974) are used as the project is

located on a flat terrain in a rural area. Atmospheric dispersion coefficients vary with downwind

distance (x) from emission sources for different atmospheric stability conditions. (CPCB

PROBES/70/1997-98).

4.4.2.2.11 Presentation of Results

In the present case, model simulations have been carried using the hourly Triple Joint Frequency data.

Short-term simulations were carried to estimate concentrations at the receptors to obtain an

optimum description of variations in concentrations over the site in 10 km radius covering 16

directions.

The incremental concentrations are estimated for the monitoring period. For each time scale, i.e. for

24 hr the model computes the highest concentrations observed during the period over all the

measurement points.

Existing value has been covered in the Background Ambient Air Quality Monitoring.

For Particulate Matter, maximum GLC for Cement Plant expansion is found to be 3.22 µg/m3 50m away

from the plant boundary (Figure 4.1). For Mine expansion project, maximum GLC for PM is found to

be 4.86µg/m3 400m away from mine pit within mine lease boundary. Maximum GLC for PM for

cumulative impact have been found to be 4.96 µg/m3 along plant boundary 400m away from stack

location towards NE direction (Figure 4.4).

Gaseous emission will be mainly due to cement plant expansion only, and mining activity will have no

significant impact on the gaseous emission as explained above. Maximum GLC for SO2 is found to be

1.32 µg/m3900m away from the plant boundary in NE direction. Contours for the incremental SO2

concentrations on the mining area are shown due to the plant activity itself (Figure 4.2).

Maximum GLC for NO2 is found to be 4.30 µg/m3 at NE plant boundary, 900m away from the stack

location. Contours for the incremental NO2 concentrations on the mining area are shown due to the

plant activity itself (Figure 4.3).

The maximum incremental GLCs due to the proposed expansion of cement plant and proposed mine

for PMare superimposed on the maximum baseline PM concentrations recorded at the monitoring

locations during the field monitoring period. The maximum GLCs after implementation of the

proposed expansion project are very much likely to be within the prescribed NAAQ standards.

There will be no significant threat to the gaseous pollutants of the ambient air quality; however,

concentration of particulate matter is a subject of concern - though not immediate. Proper mitigation

plan for dust control has to be implemented in both the plant premises and mining lease area.

Conclusion

From the study, it was observed that Traffic movement in the 10 Km radius of the study area is

busy. At present, the traffic load calculated at Beawar to Ras Road connecting plant site to SH - 39

is approximately 4427 vehicles per day. The study area is served by road transport. Most of the

villages are connected by bus / other transport services. The area has a moderate road network,

which includes National highway, Major District Roads and other roads.

Figure 4.5 clearly shows that Heavy vehicles (34.78%) runs mainly on Beawar to Ras Road followed

by Two wheeler (18.09%) and four wheelers (10.7%). Majority of the total traffic comprises of

others (36.39%), which includes three wheelers, tractors, animal drawn vehicles etc.

Additional Traffic due to Proposed Expansion Project

Both raw and finished materials will be transported by road as well as rail. Due to proposed

expansion project, there will be additional trucks to the existing traffic volume. Adequate parking

facilities will be provided to accommodate additional trucks within the plant premises.

Traffic Projection and Impact due to Transportation

Due to the proposed expansion project, there will be addition of Heavy and Light motor vehicles

in the existing traffic.

The present road network is good enough to bear the increased traffic load. However, internal

and nearby roads will be maintained as and when needed to facilitate transportation.

Railway siding with loading / unloading facilities at Shree Cement Ltd. - Alternative option for

transportation

A railway siding connects the plant to Beawer Railway Station, which is about 21 km in SE direction

from the plant site. Emissions per ton - km of road transport are higher than emission per ton - km

caused by rail transport. Thus, SCL will achieve emission reductions by using rail as mode of

transport for clinker and cement.

Thus, the environmental impact is considered to be positive based on reduced air pollution

basically of particulate matter as emitted by diesel trucks. Overall fossil fuel consumption will be

reduced, resulting reduction of emissions of the release of CO2 and CH4, NOx etc.

SCL will take all appropriate measures to reduce the impact of transportation. Proper mitigation

measures will be adopted by SCL to minimize traffic flow to the best possible extent resulting in

low level of dust, noise and gaseous emissions.

Anticipated Impacts

Increase in traffic density will lead to air pollution.

Movement of vehicles will cause noise pollution.

No direct impact is envisaged on the flora and fauna of the area.

Increased traffic may cause accidental incidences and public health problems.

Mitigation Measures

Vehicles with PUC Certificate will be hired.

Vehicles will be covered with a tarpaulin and not over loaded.

Un- necessary blowing of horn will be avoided.

Roads will be maintained in good condition to reduce noise due to traffic.

Greenbelt of appropriate quality and width will be developed.

To avoid accidents, the speed of vehicles will be low near habitation areas.

4.4.3 Impact on Noise Level and Mitigation Measures

During operation phase, noise is being / will be generated due to following activities / processes:

Operation of plant machineries viz. kiln, exhaust fans, grinding mills, crushers, compressors,

pumps and motors etc. It may be due to poor lubrication, worn out parts, loosened nuts/

bolts, improper foundation and its mountings, flattened springs support etc.

Movement of vehicles and other ancillary activities

With increasing distance from the source, the noise level decreases due to wave divergence.

Additional decrease also occurs due to atmospheric effects and interaction with objects in the

transmission paths. Following noise abatement measures is being / will be taken:

Persons working just close to machine and machine operators is being / will be provided

with personal protective equipment viz. Ear plugs / Ear muffs etc.

Proper maintenance, oiling and greasing of machines at regular intervals is being / will be

done to reduce generation of noise

Greenbelt of appropriate width at the plant boundary is being developed

Regular monitoring of noise level is being / will be carried out and corrective measures in

concerned machinery is being / will be adopted accordingly to the possible extent

4.4.4 Impact on Water Quality and Mitigation Measures

The water requirement for existing Integrated Cement Plant is 2800 m3/day. Additional 700 will be

required for the proposed expansion project; hence, the total water requirement after the

proposed expansion project will be 3500 m3/day; which will be sourced from Ground water.

Permission for withdrawal of ground water has already been obtained from CGWA.

No waste water is likely to be generated during cement manufacturing process. No waste water

will be discharged outside the plant premises. Therefore, operation of proposed expansion of

Cement Plant will not pose any adverse impact on the ground water resources of the area.

Domestic wastewater generated from plant and colony is being / will be treated in STP and

treated water is being / will be utilized for greenbelt development / plantation. RO reject water is

being / will be used in Synthetic Gypsum manufacturing process, ash quenching and dust

suppression. Rain water harvesting is being practiced inside the plant and colony premises.

Regular monitoring of water quality is being / will be carried out. Training and awareness

programmes on water conservation measures will also be organized for the locals.

4.4.5 Impact on Soil and Mitigation Measures

The soil of the area may get affected due to operational activities, if proper care is not taken.

i) Changes in soil texture due to settling of air borne dust or due to wash off of solid

particulates by surface or ground water. This will lead to change in porosity, permeability

and other physical characteristics of soil of the area.

Near Village: Ras, Tehsil: Jaitaran, District: Pali (Rajasthan)

Chapter - IV of Final EIA / EMP Report

M/s. Shree Cement Ltd. 137 JM EnviroNet Pvt. Ltd.

ii) Changes in soil chemistry due to addition of foreign material from polluted air and water

due to unit activities in the area.

Efficient Air Pollution Control Equipment (APCE) like Bag House / Bag Filter / ESP is being / will be

installed at all major stacks of cement plant to keep the emissions within 30 mg/Nm3. Adequate stack

height helps to control dust emissions. No waste water will be discharged outside the plant

premises. A horticulturist has been engaged who ensures soil quality improvement in the plant

area, by adequate manuring and fertilizing. Therefore, no adverse impact on the soil quality of the

area is anticipated.

Besides, soil samples are being collected and tested at regular intervals from the nearby areas.

This helps in mitigation of any harmful impact on soil due to the project expansion activity, if any,

and the same will be practiced after proposed expansion also.

4.4.6 Impact due to Solid and Hazardous Waste Generation

No solid waste is being / will be generated from the cement manufacturing process. Dust collected

from air pollution control equipment is being / will be totally recycled in process. Sludge from

Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) is being / will be used as manure for greenbelt development /

plantation. Fly ash generated from captive power plant is being / will be utilized in cement

manufacturing process.

No hazardous waste is being / will be generated except the used oil which is being / will be

collected in drums, temporarily stored at earmarked place and is being / will be sold to the

authorized CPCB recyclers.

4.4.7 Impact on Biological Environment

There are no direct or indirect evidence of presence of any major wildlife in the core and buffer

areas of the project. There is no National Park, Wildlife Sanctuary, Biosphere Reserves (existing as

well as proposed) in the study area; there is only one Reserve Forest and one Protected Forest

within 10 km of the plant area. No Schedule- I species were recorded in the core and buffer zone

of plant area during the biological survey.

There may be an impact on the biological environment of the area due to operation of cement

plant, if proper care will not be taken:

i) Particulate matter emissions from stack and fugitive emissions due to transportation

activity & material handling may degrade the soil quality of surrounding environment that

may affect the biodiversity of surrounding environment.

Particulate matter emission may cause migration of wild animals and bird.

Fugitive emissions (dust) may impact the terrestrial flora. The settlement of dust on the

laminar surface of plants can impede the efficiency of photo-transduction and thereby,

affect the productivity of plants. In some of the plant, it may also smother the leaf surface

blocking stomata, resulting in reduced transpiration.

Near Village: Ras, Tehsil: Jaitaran, District: Pali (Rajasthan)

Chapter - IV of Final EIA / EMP Report

M/s. Shree Cement Ltd. 138 JM EnviroNet Pvt. Ltd.

ii) Increased noise level due to running of machinery may scare the wild fauna and force them

to migrate to other areas.

The present running plant has no significant impact on surrounding ecology and biodiversity as

following mitigative measures have been / will be adopted by SCL:

Scaling up the greenbelt development and plantation in and around the Plant site.

Use of water sprinkler on the haul road to control fugitive emissions in the surrounding

environment.

Using paved roads for transportation to minimize fugitive emissions.

Transporting material in close truck and storing it under tarpaulin cover.

Transport vehicles and machinery will be properly maintained and periodically checked for

pollution level to reduce noise and gaseous emission in the surrounding environment.

4.4.8 Impact on Socio-Economic Environment

Project potential impacts on socio-economic environment are summarized below and categorized

either as positive / beneficial or negative / adverse impacts.

Positive impacts

Employment

Employment opportunities will be created by M/s. Shree Cement Ltd. during planning and

preparation, construction and operational phases of the proposed expansion project and it

will provide a sustainable and safe working environment for workers.

Community Skills Development

The employees will be benefited from the training programmes that are instituted by SCL to

enable the community labour force to work in different areas of production.

Improved Standards of Living

Employment opportunities created by the project will increase income and therefore

improve the overall standards of living in the area.

Community Organizational Capacity Development

Through engagement of community members in development structures such as

Community Development Committees, the community organizational capacity will be

developed.

Improved Water Supply

Supply of safe water for the community by M/s. Shree Cement Ltd. will improve health

standards and living conditions in the villages.

Economic Exposure and Development

Implementation of the project will make financial institutions as well as related economic

facilities, infrastructure and services available to the people. This will expose and introduce

the local population to factors of economic development including the banking system,

financial services, and credit and investment schemes.

In order to maximize the project s positive impacts during the construction phase, it is

proposed that local and national workers be used as much as possible and also, whenever

possible, local companies to supply the construction materials, therefore stimulating the

job market and the local economic activities.

Adverse Social Impacts

Health Impacts

The project has the potential for triggering health impacts through air pollutants from

heavy vehicles, increased dust, creation of breeding grounds for disease vectors, population

influx which might introduce new diseases in the area, and inadequate sanitation facilities.

Livelihood change

Due to the labour intensity of the manufacturing sector, the project will attract the more

able-bodied persons from the community which in turn will lead to low labor availability in

other sectors of the economy including agricultural, education and health skilled workers.

Local employment opportunities will be created by the project. This impact will not be

significant due to low level of education and skills in the area which will result in sourcing

skilled workforce from outside the immediate area. But the magnitude of this impact will

be high due to high number of dependents in a household.

Mitigation Measures

Mitigating Health Impacts

An awareness programme on health hazards can be implemented to safeguard the

employees as well as the local population s health. M/s. Shree Cement Ltd. should have a

clinic for its employees and also provide assistance, in conjunction with government and

NGOs, to the medical service for the villages. This way, the health issues can be monitored

and addressed.

Managing Loss of Livelihood and Income

To cushion the population against impacts of manufacturing unit closure, comprehensive

retrenchment packages that include adequate advance warning to employees and

contractors to allow them to source alternative opportunities should be undertaken.

4.4.9 Impact on Occupational Health and Mitigation Measures

The cement manufacturing industry is labour intensive and uses large scale and potentially

hazardous manufacturing processes. The industry experiences accident rates that are high

compared with some other manufacturing industries. Cement industries experience risk of a

number of hazards inherent to the cement production process. Some examples of such hazards

are:

Proposed Expansion of Integrated Cement Plant- Clinker (11.2 to 15.0 Million TPA), Cement (8.8 to 13.2 Million TPA), WHRS (68 to 90 MW), CPP (180 MW),

Exposure to dust,

Exposure to high temperatures,

Noise exposure,

Physical hazards,

Chemical hazards and other industrial hygiene issues, and

Others

These mainly impact on those working within the industry, although health hazards can also

impact on local communities.

Exposure to Dust

Exposure to fine particulates is associated with work in most of the dust-generating stages of

Cement Plant, but most notably from, raw material handling, and clinker / cement grinding.

Workers with long term exposure to fine particulate dust are at risk of pneumoconiosis,

emphysema, bronchitis, and fibrosis.

Methods to prevent and control exposure to dust include the following:

Control of dust through implementation of good housekeeping and maintenance;

Use of air conditioned, closed cabins;

Use of dust extraction and recycling systems to remove dust from work areas, especially in

grinding mills;

Use of PPE, as appropriate (e.g. masks and respirators) to address residual exposures

following adoption of the above-referenced process and engineering controls.

Exposure to High Temperatures

The principal exposures to heat in this sector occur during Handling of hot raw meal (Powdered

limestone, additives etc. is heated in a pre-heater cyclone), hot clinker and operation &

maintenance of kilns or other hot equipment. Recommended prevention and control techniques

include the following:

Shielding surfaces where workers proximity and close contact with hot equipment is

expected, using Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), as needed (e.g. insulated gloves and

shoes);

Minimizing the work time required in high temperature environments by implementing

shorter shifts at these locations.

Noise and Vibration Exposure

Exhaust fans and grinding mills, kiln, compressors, and motors are the main sources of noise and

vibrations in Cement Plant. Control of noise emissions will include the use of silencers for ID fans,

room enclosures for mill operators, noise barriers, and, if noise cannot be reduced to acceptable

levels, personal hearing protection (ear plugs/muffs).

Physical hazards

Injuries during Project operation are typically related to slips, trips, and falls; contact with falling /

moving objects; and lifting / over-exertion.

Other injuries may occur due to contact with, or capture in, moving machinery (e.g. dump trucks,

front loaders, forklifts). Activities related to maintenance of equipments, including crushers, mills,

mill separators, fans, coolers, and belt conveyors, represent a significant source of exposure to

physical hazards. Such hazards may include the following:

Falling / impact with objects;

Hot surface burns; and

Transportation

Contact with allergic substances.

Following management measures will be ensured to prevent the physical hazards in the plant:

Any person working on equipment with moving parts personally ensures the equipment is

de-energized, isolated and locked/tagged out.

Any person working from a position with the potential risk for a fall from height uses fall

protection.

Prescribed PPE has been provided to all workers exposed to open processes or systems.

Mr. Arvind Singh (State

General Secretary) centre for

public rights and rural

development, Village

Sevariya, Jaitaran, Pali

Company is doing ill-legal blasting in area. Cracks can

be seen in many houses due to vibrations caused by

the blasting as company was allowed to do mining in

only 750 ha of the Nimbeti Limestone mines, but they

are doing much beyond it.

Controlled Blasting by latest blasting technique by using

shock tube detonator (Down line detonator in

combination with noise less trunk line detonators.) is

being carried out. There is no impact of the blasting as

the villages are far from the active benches of mine

lease area. So far none of the nearby villager contacted

us for any such cracks in houses due to our mining

operation

Noise and Vibration level due to

blasting will be measured and

monitored at different villages.

Whenever company comes for environment clearance

their contractors act as local people and give false

statement and company gets clearance. Company

should not be provided environmental clearance.

All documents are available at the office of the

Panchayat, SDM, DM, Dist industry center and Jila

Parishad.

Exposure to High Temperature

The principal exposures to heat in this sector occur during handling of hot raw meal (Powdered

limestone, laterite additives etc. heated in a pre-heater cyclone), hot clinker and operation &

maintenance of kilns or other hot equipment. Recommended prevention and control techniques

include the following:

Shielding surfaces where worker s proximity and close contact with hot equipment is

expected,

Using personal protective equipment (PPE), as needed (e.g. insulated gloves and shoes);

Minimizing the work time required in high temperature environments by implementing

shorter shifts at these locations.

Physical Hazards

Injuries during Project operation are typically related to slips, trips, and falls; contact with falling /

moving objects; and lifting / over-exertion. Other injuries may occur due to contact with, or

capture in, moving machinery (e.g. dump trucks, front loaders, forklifts). Activities related to

maintenance of equipment, including crushers, mills, mill separators, fans, coolers, and belt

conveyors, represent a significant source of exposure to physical hazards. Such hazards may

include the following:

Falling / impact with objects

Hot surface burns

Transportation

Contact with allergic substances.

Management measures to prevent the physical hazards in the plant

Any person working on equipment with moving parts will personally ensure the equipment

is de-energized, isolated and locked/tagged out.

Any person working from a position with the potential risk for a fall from height will use fall

protection.

Any person doing flame welding, cutting or brazing in the proximity of any flammable

material will obtain PPE.

Events pertaining to the manufacturing process

The following areas are identified as hazard prone incase of Integrated Cement Plant where

Disaster management plan is required.

(i) Handling of Coal and Pet coke

1. The coal and pet coke is received through road and railway and stored in Covered Stockpile

and wind breaking wall arrangement with arrangement of water sprinkling. The possible

hazards are envisaged due to the slipping of wagon during unloading.

2. During summer season, there is chance of coal catching fire due to spontaneous heating.

3. Effective sprinkling systems should be provided all-round the coal storage yards.

(ii) Handling of fine dust

The hot raw meal (Powdered limestone, laterite additives etc. is heated in a multi - stage pre

heater cyclone) is stored in the raw meal silos. It is very common that the hot raw meal gets

jammed in the chute and screw conveyors. During the maintenance process, the operator

generally works in the pre-heater cyclone and other areas. Always there is a possibility of hazard

that the jammed material falls on the workers and due to hot temperature of the material,

possibility of injury may occur to the worker, sufficient care should be taken in the maintenance

operations.

(iii) Handling of Hot Clinker

The hot clinker is transported by chain conveyors to the top of the silo or stock pile for storage.

During this operation, there is a possibility of spill out of hot clinker. Proper care for the conveyor

system and the bund wall for the clinker stock pile should be provided.

(iv) Handling of Cement

Cement is the fine dust which requires proper care in handling, storage and packing to avoid any

health hazards.

Fire

Fire can be observed in the boiler area, Coal storage yard, Fuel spillage, Electrical rooms,

Transformer area etc. due to accidental failure scenario.

Explosion

Explosion may lead to release of heat energy and Pressure waves. Table 7.2 shows tentative list of

Other emergency actions should be followed in addition as per the general procedure

(e) Bomb Threat

In view of the probable acts of terrorism, the possibility of receiving bomb threats or the sabotage

cannot be ruled out. Therefore, consider all bomb threats as genuine and act accordingly keeping

in mind the safety of the people in the factory and the property. For such situation, the security

people should take action under the guidance of the Section Head (Security). The Bomb threats

may be received in writing or may be received on phone. The expected actions by telephone

receiver are as follows:

Keep the caller on the line as long as possible. Request him to repeat the message, listen

carefully as every word spoken by the person has to be recorded mentally or penned down.

If the caller does not indicate the location of the bomb or the time of possible detonation, it

is advisable to try to ask him for this information.

Pay particular attention to peculiar background noises such as motors running, background

music and any other noise, which may give a clue as to from where the call is being made.

Listen closely to the voice (male, female), voice quality (calm, excited), accents and speech

impediments. Immediately after the caller hangs up, report should be made to the

immediate senior manager or security officer on duty about all the above details.

In consultation with SMC, the Legal-Coordinator can immediately inform the nearest Police

station over phone and also Bomb diffusion squad.

If the location is identified, cordon-off the area and ask people to leave the area and

assemble at designated assembly point.

During strikes police will be informed by the Legal-Coordinator in advance and taken their

help to maintain law and order.

(f) Food and Water Poisoning

Food and water poisoning to a no of persons, due to canteen food or other means, is another

scenario which can leads to major emergency. In this case Medical Officer should be informed

immediately by the Sr. most person available at site and then to incident Controller(IC) and Site

Main Controller (SMC). In such situation doctors should act and if situation demands additional

help such as ambulances, doctors and medicine should be arranged from nearby factories and

hospitals. For such situations SMC may decide whether siren is required to blow or not and

arrange to inform key persons in the factory and if required set up Emergency Control Centre

(ECC) at Hospital. Functional Head (FH) of HR should rush to ECC and assist SMC for informing

the part of the company employees to wear the appropriate safety gear given while attending

duty in the factory.

7.4.4.3 Off-Site Emergency Planning

The off-site emergency plan is an integral part of any hazard control system. It is based on those

accidents identified by the works management, which could affect people and the environment

outside the works. Thus, the off-site plan follows logically from the analysis that took place to

provide the basis for the on-site plan and the two plans therefore complement each other. The

roles of the various parties that may be involved in the implementation of an off-site plan are

described below. The responsibility for the off-site plan will be likely to rest either with the works

management or with the local authority.

Either way, the plan must identify an emergency coordinating officer who would take overall

command of the off-site activities. Consideration of evacuation may include the following factors:

In the case of a major fire but without explosion risk (e.g. an oil storage tank), only

houses close to the fire are likely to need evacuation

If fire is escalating very fast it is necessary to evacuate people nearby as soon as possible.

In acute emergency people are advised to stay indoors and shield themselves from the

fire.

Organization

Organizational details of command structure, warning systems, implementation procedures,

emergency control centres include name and appointments of incident controller, site main

controller, their deputies and other key personnel involved during emergency.

Communications

Identification of personnel involved, communication centre, call signs, network, list of telephone

numbers.

Special Emergency Equipment

Details of availability and location of heavy lifting gear, specified fire-fighting equipment, fireboats

etc.

Voluntary Organizations

Details of Voluntary organizations, telephone numbers nearby of hospitals, Emergency helpline,

resources etc are to be available with chief authorities.

Non-government Organizations (NGO)

Transportation

Transportation of clinker to the clinker silo will be done through covered conveyor belt in a very

controlled manner; while that of the fly ash to fly ash silo will be done pneumatically from tankers.

This will help in reducing the fugitive emissions. Movement of heavy trucks/vehicles on the non-

metallic road generates substantial quantity of dust emission. This is due to the presence of dust

over the road, which is carried away by wind.

To control the generation of dust, all the roads inside the plant premises are / will be concreted.

Regular sweeping of all the roads and floors is/will be done by vacuum sweeping machine.

Sprinkling of water through tankers is/will be done on bare lands and roads.

Material Transfer

Dust is/will be generated from all the transfer points of belt conveyors. This is/will be controlled by

spraying water at unloading points and providing bag filters at all transfer points. 16 nos of bag

filters for clinker Unit XI and 34 nos of bag filters are proposed to be established for new Cement

10.4.3.1 Rain Water Harvesting at Plant and Colony

The demand of water for industrial purposes, agricultural purposes, domestic purposes and other

miscellaneous purposes is increasing considerably around Shree Cement Ltd. There are surface

water sources in the area but as stated above, in the deficiency of that surface water sources, it is

equally important and urgent to ensure the full proof supply of required quantity of water

throughout the year without any disturbance to industrial activity as well as without causing any

negative water scarcity impact on the neighboring villages. To achieve this target maximum

quantity of Rain Water has to be harvested and reserved (charged) in the available sub-surface

cavities or collected and infiltration must be facilitated through the management practice.

Use of High Calorific Hazardous Waste in Cement Plant

The co-processing of waste in cement industry is much beneficial option, whereby wastes are not

only incinerated at a higher temperature of around 1400°C and longer residence time but its

inorganic content gets fixed within the clinker apart from using the energy content of the wastes.

Apart from this, no residues are left, which in case of incineration still requires being land filled as

incinerator ash. Further the acidic gases, if any generated during co-processing gets neutralized,

since the raw material is alkaline in nature. Such phenomenon also reduces resource requirement

such as coal and limestone.

Taking the cognizance of above advantages of co-processing the waste, Shree Cement Ltd. have

explored few hazardous waste in the area generated by other units and is utilizing them as AFR.

14.5 ha will be further developed for this expansion project. Besides this, 33% (i.e. 24 ha) of the

area available outside the plant boundary (72.7 ha) will also be developed under greenbelt /

plantation, whenever used in future.

Area of the township near village Bagatpura is 40 ha, out of which 14.5 ha (i.e. 36%) is developed

under greenbelt / plantation area.

The company has social obligation to recreate the environmental status by providing thick canopy

cover to suppress fugitive emission and provide aesthetic beauty. Trees form important part of

the biosphere in the Eco-system. The ecological belt maintains the natural balance of the area.

A green belt of tree plantation around the plant site will help to arrest the particulate matter in

the area and hence attenuate the pollution to a great extent.

The following characteristics have been taken into consideration while selecting plant species for

green belt development and tree plantation.

10.7.5 Guidelines for Green Belt Development

Following guidelines will be followed for the Green Belt Development Plan in the plant and

colony area.

1) All the barren areas should be vegetated. Areas other than this are having good natural

vegetation. Soil and other environment are very encouraging and the expected growth rate

should be more than 90%

2) Trees growing to a height of 5m or more should be planted

3) Plantation of trees should be undertaken in around the area in alternating rows to prevent

horizontal pollution dispersion

4) Trees should be planted along road sides, to arrest auto-exhaust and noise pollution, and in

such a way that there is no direct line of sight to the installation when viewed from a point

outside the foliage perimeter

5) Since tree trunks are normally devoid of foliage (upto 3 m), it should be appropriated to

have shrubbery in form of such trees to give coverage to this portion

6) Fast growing trees with thick perennial foliage should be grown, as it will take many years

for trees to grow to their full height

In order to facilitate proper growth of the vegetation, a limited measures involving preparation

of seed bed with suitable amount of fertilizers and treatment with mulches is/will be taken. The

topsoil should be used for green belt development.

Vegetation covers in and around the plant workings generally helps in:

Stabilizing erodible slopes to minimize pollution

Control of dust

Enhancement of aesthetic value

10.10 VEHICULAR POLLUTION CONTROL AND ITS MANAGEMENT

Vehicle emissions are responsible for 70% of the country s air pollution. Various laws in this regard

have been laid out by the government. Air pollution from vehicle exhaust and industry is a

worsening problem for India. Exhaust from vehicles has increased eight-fold over levels of twenty

years ago; industrial pollution has risen four times over the same period. The economy has grown

two and a half times over the past two decades.

SCL take care of all the measures to take up the vehicular pollution control in addition to the

pollution from the plant processes. All the vehicles are/will be kept environmentally compliant.

1. Inspection and maintenance (I&M) programme for vehicles: The first and most important

step towards emission control for the large in-use fleet of vehicles is the formulation of an

inspection and maintenance system. It is possible to reduce 30-40% pollution loads generated

by vehicles through proper periodical inspections and maintenance of vehicles. It should

include testing of various elements of safety, road worthiness and compliance to pollution

norms. Renewal of permits and registration.

2. Emission norms: Emission norms for all categories of petrol and diesel vehicles should be

followed. Bharat stage emission standards are emission standards instituted by Government

of India to regulate the output of air pollutants from internal combustion engine equipment,

including motor vehicles. The standards and the timeline for implementation are set by the

Central Pollution Control Board under the MoEFCC. Following guidelines given in Table - 10.12

CHAPTER 1

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Project : Groundwater Resources Evaluation & Rainwater

Harvesting System Development Studies.

Promoters : M/S SHREE CEMENTS LTD, BEAWAR, RAJ.

Conducted by : ASSOCIATE ENGINEERS & CONSULTANTS

Possible sources : Subsurface & Rainwater in the plant & Mines

Area.

Investigation

Methodology :

• Surface Hydro geological studies mining lease & plant area (Core Zone)

• Surface Hydro geological studies for Buffer zone (10 Km radius).

Coverage: (a) Approx. 7.5 Sq. Km of mining lease, 3.042 Sq. Km of Plant & 0.4 Sq.km colony area (Core

Zone)

(b) Approx. 10 Km radius (Buffer Zone)

Findings:

∗ The regional water level ranges between 7m. to 22m. below ground level during the post monsoon period and

during pre monsoon water levels are 15m to 30m below ground level.

∗ Based on results of hydro geological survey conducted in the area, it appears that ground water occurs in

water table condition in weak zones of medium hard & hard rock. In the investigated area, thickness of top soil

is very less generally not more than 6 to 8m in plant area & no Top Soil is found in Mineralised area of Mining

Lease.

∗ For buffer zone (10 km radius) total recharge due to rainfall & irrigation return flow at study year rainfall works

out to be 32.87 mcm/annum. Total discharge works out to be 12.81 mcm/annum & stage of development is

38%.

∗ The area of core zone is under safe category and has surplus exploitable ground water potential, indicating

mining activity has not affected its long-term ground water recharge and its ground water resources. No

stream will be encountered during the mining activity which will require any diversion, and will not affect

surface water resources.

∗ Due to hard, crystalline and chemically resistant nature of limestone the water stored in the mining pit

remains unpolluted and free from any toxic constituents. The overburden, mostly composed of thin alluvial

material also does not contribute any pollutants from its waste. The waste dumps are located in such a way

that there are no hindrances to flow of water bodies and streams.

∗ There is no possibility of any land subsidence due to heavy pumping or mining as the rocks are hard, compact,

impervious and crystalline, which can be stand of its own. Beside that there is no heavy pumpage for ground

water extraction.

∗ The mining activity, as per the conceptual plan is proposed to be confined to an area of 450 Hect and will be

up to depth of 123 m.at the end of the mine about 190 hectare area will be left as water recharge pit or as a

source of water supply containing about 0.760 mcm of water.

∗ To reduce groundwater extraction, some measures have already been taken by the management. Firstly,

storm water runoff is being collected in the mining pit/pond amount of rainwater collected is of the order of

0.845 mcm and is being used for the plantation, dust suppression, cement processing work, etc. These will in

turn decrease the extraction of groundwater by the industry. Besides this, rainwater stored in the mining pits

is providing recharge to ground water by induced infiltration to nearby tubewells as pumping levels of these

tub wells are below the pit bottom.

∗ Secondly, wastewater generated at mines workshop is cleaned with the help of oil- water separator & this

cleaned water is re-circulated & reused.

∗ In the mine lease area at the conceptual stage radius of influence zone due to mine pit dewatering extends

upto about 960 m from the centre of the mine pit. After reviewing the lease area map, it is seen that there is

no spring, public well, river or lake in the area of 1km from the mining pits indicating that there will not be any

influence of pumping water from the mining pits on any other sources

∗ Total recharge from rooftop, roads, cemented and open area of plant area will be 496686 cum. To

accommodate that amount of water 3 dry tubewells and 8 open wells has been constructed.

∗ Total recharge from Nala Originating from Eastern side of Industrial area will be 453974 cum. To accommodate

that amount of water 4 large diameter open well has been constructed on rainwater harvesting pit near plant

gate having 147000 cum water holding capacity has also been constructed.

∗ Total recharge from rooftop, roads, cemented and open area of colony area will be 94852 cum. To

accommodate that amount of water 5 dry tubewells has been connected.

∗ Total recharge from Nala Originating from Eastern & South-Eastern Side of Colony area will be 523320Cum. To

accommodate that amount of water two anicut with 1m height and 4m length has been constructed.

∗ Total recharge to ground water in mine lease area will be 362305Cum. To accommodate that amount of water

two rainwater harvesting pits of 650000 & 40000 Cum capacity with 2 injection wells has been constructed.

∗ Total rainwater available for groundwater recharge for plant, outside area and mines comes out to the tune of

1931140 cum.

PHYSIOGRAPHY, DRAINAGE PATTERN & RAINFALL DATA

Nimbeti Limestone deposit forms the part of catchment area of Lilri river, a tributary of Luni river. Lilri river

originates from Ramgarh Narpura hills, north of beawar. After flowing west up to Ras, it takes southern turn,

flowing between two limestone hills, is joined by Sukri River near village Mohari and further downstream meets

Luni River near Nimbol.

Lilri river is an ephemeral stream and flows only in direct response to rainfall in its catchment area. There is well-

developed drainage, which is dendritic in nature. The drainage on the northeasterly trending hills of limestone,

takes westerly and easterly course, ultimately joining Lilri River.

Nimbeti limestone deposit is the most easterly limestone hill, among the four prominent limestone hills, all striking

NE-SW and all hills are being mined and proposed to be mined as source of limestone by other cement plants.

Four minor irrigation projects have been constructed upstream of Ras limestone deposits on Lilri river and its

tributary Sukri. Their details are as under:

GEOMORPHOLOGY

The geomorphology involves the study of landforms of a terrain into units which are classified and subsequently

evaluated for specific type of land utilization. The landforms are the expressions of surface and subsurface

lithological and structural features. The regional perspective of the satellite data makes it very easy to delineate

geomorphic landforms based on tonal and morphological expressions on the IRS, LISS-3 satellite image.

Geomorphological units and associated features identified and mapped in the study area through the visual

interpretation of satellite data taking in to consideration the physiography, geology, structures and drainage

conditions. The study area is classified into different zones covered by structural ridges, structural hills, pediment,

pediplain and alluvium as shown in Figure. The area statistics of identified geomorphic units have been generated

and is given in Table.

Structural Ridges

Linear to curvilinear ridges are found in the study area following NE-SW trend. On the satellite imagery these ridges

are showing the characteristic linear and curvilinear shapes with high relief compared to their surrounding units.

These hills are steep to moderately slopping on both sides. The area under structural ridges is 142.37 ha.

Structural Hills

The structural hills are the isolated eroded uplands found in eastern part of the study area. These structural hills

are formed due to differential erosion of hard and compact lithological formations. The spatial extent of these hills

is very low.

Pediment

Pediment is a gently sloping area with erosional bed rock, situated in between hills and plains consisting of a

veneer of detritus and broad undulating rock floor. The pediment cover in the study area is 156.87 ha. Pediments

are located in central and eastern part of the study area.

Pediplain

Pediplain is relatively flat rock surface formed by the joining of several pediments. Pediplain are usually formed in

arid or semi-arid climates and may have a thin veneer of sediments. It is postulated that the pediplain may be the

last stage of landform evolution, the final result of the processes of erosion. Ultimately, the pediplain comprises an

intricate assembly of pediments which slope down to the local drainage systems. In study area major pediplains

are found in western part and the area under pediplain category is 166.25 ha.

Alluvium

The recent to sub-recent formation in the study area comprises a broad patch of alluvium deposit along the river

course. It is a thick, unconsolidated deposit of sand, gravel clay and silt. The alluvium is found in central part of the

study area and it covers only 2.85 ha area.

AQUIFER TYPES

Ground water generally occurs in unconfining conditions and is transmitted through the fractures, joints and

foliation plans of granites and gneisses. These rocks are impervious in nature and do not have primary porosity.

These rocks have the secondary porosity due to presence of fracture zone and weathering. The secondary porosity

decreases with depth due to overlying weight of the rocks. Granites and gneisses are prone to weathering, get

weathered to adequate depths and develop primary porosity. Hence maximum hydraulic conductivity is observed

at shallow depth generally less than 100m.

Limestone mostly forms the hills it has been proved to be water bearing and a tube well constructed in the mine

area yield 10,000 lit/hr of water. Limestone of the area is thick bedded, well jointed and therefore is expected to

Page 331

Ground Water Resources & Rainwater HarvestingSCL, RAS, JAITARAN, PALI

Associate Engineers & Consultants

12

have adequate fracture porosity and hydraulic conductivity. Most of the rain falling on the top of the limestone

hills is likely to percolate down through the bedding planes and form a ground water basin in the foothill area.

WATER LEVEL AND SEASONAL FLUCTUATION

Water level in the area ranges from 7mts. to 22mts. below ground level in the post monsoon period while during

summer it ranges from 15 to 30m. Seasonal fluctuation in the area is about 8 m. water level monitoring has been

done in the year 2014-15 for mining lease area and plant area. Fluctuation in water levels is mostly due to recharge

of ground water through rainfall and influent seepage from streams and ground water discharge from wells.

YIELD POTENTIAL

There are three operating tube wells in the mining lease area and seven open well/ bore well in the plant area.

Tube wells in the mining area have discharge between 60 to 300 KL/day, while open wells in the plant area have

discharge between 20 to 60 Cum/day.

In the near by areas hand pumps have been constructed by the govt. to an average depth of 60 to 70m. The yield

of such hand pumps is not much and is just sufficient to meet the drinking water requirement. Open wells are

generally 20 to 30m deep and are operated by diesel engines and do not sustain pumping. The average yield of

wells tapping granites ranges between 20 to 120 cum/day. Wells and tube wells tapping alluvium generally yield 20

cum/hrs.

GROUND WATER MOVEMENT

In the investigated area the movement of ground water is governed mainly by secondary fractures as granites and

gneisses are impervious in nature and do not possess primary porosity. The alluvial thickness is very low and

remains unsaturated during major part of the year. The general land slope and drainage in the area is towards East

and is 25 m/km and to north about 5m/km. The ground water also follows the topography and surface water

moves in eastern to northern direction. The hydraulic gradient is not so high and has been observed as a 2.17 per

kilometre. The movement of ground water on the western side of limestone hills is also towards west with low

hydraulic gradient.

GROUND WATER QUALITY

Quality of ground water is generally potable and electrical conductivity is less than 2000 micromhos per cm. And

total dissolved salts do not exceed 1000 mg/lit. All the constituents remain within allowable limits of drinking water

standards with fluorides remaining less than 1.5 mg/lit and nitrates less than 45 mg/l. water is therefore suitable

for drinking and irrigation purposes.

CHAPTER - 3

GROUND WATER RESOURCES EVALUATION &

IMPACT OF MINING ON WATER REGIME

Ground water resources of an area can be distinguished under two categories:-

1. Dynamic ground water resources

2. Static ground water resources

DYNAMIC GROUND WATER RESOURCES

Dynamic ground water is that amount of water, which is found in the natural zone of fluctuation in an aquifer due

to ground water recharge. Total ground water recharge (RT) of the area can be estimated by assessing the various

components of the following equation: -

RT = Rr+ Rs+ RI+ Sr+ Rc - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - (I)

Where,

Rr = Recharge from Rainfall.

Rs = Recharge from Irrigation due to surface water.

RI = Recharge from Irrigation due to ground water.

SI = Recharge through surface water bodies.

Rc = Recharge to confined aquifers.

GROUND WATER RESOURCES IN THE CORE ZONE

MINING LEASE AREA

The mining lease area covers 7.5 Sq.km. out of which 3.85sq.km is composed of limestone and 3.65 sq.km is

composed of granitic gneisses. Now in this area no irrigation activity is going on. The main source of ground water

recharge is recharge due to rainfall by direct percolation.

RECHARGE DUE TO RAINFALL (Rrm)

(A) BY GROUNDWATER TABLE FLUCTUATION METHOD:

There are three operating tube wells in the mining lease area. One pieziometer is also there and is used for regular

water level monitoring. Water level monitoring was done during pre and post monsoon, 2014 -2015. Under such

situation, increment in ground water storage in the limestone was determined from monitoring this pieziometer.

Increment in ground water storage in gneisses of the core zone was monitored from few old dug wells. Average

seasonal fluctuation in limestone area has been observed as 4.5 m and in Gneisses it is about 5m.

Recharge due to rainfall is computed by specific yield water table fluctuation method as below: -

Calculations should be done considering 3.85 Sq Km Limestone and rest Gneiss

Rr = A × S.F × Sy ------------------------------- (III)

Where,

Rr = Recharge due to rainfall in the investigated area.

A = Rechargeable area = 7.5 Km2

3.85 Sq. Km. in Limestone

3.65 Sq.km in Gneisses

S.F. = Seasonal fluctuation in water level.

4.5 m. as observed in Limestone area

5m as observed in Gneisses area

Sy = Specific yield = 2% for Limestone aquifer

1.5% for Gneisses aquifer

Therefore,

RrmL = 3.85 × 106

x 4.5 × 0.02

= 0.35 mcm/annum

RrmL ≈ 0.35 mcm/annum (For Limestone)

RrmG = 3.65 × 106

x 5 × 0.015

= 0.27 mcm/annum

RrmG ≈ 0.27mcm/annum (For Gneisses)

Rrm = RrmL + RrmG

= 0.35 + 0.27

Rrm = 0.62 mcm/annum

(B) BY RAINFALL INFILTRATION FACTOR METHOD:

In areas where groundwater level monitoring is not adequate in space & time, rainfall infiltration may be adopted.

The ground water estimation committee, Govt. of India (1997) has suggested norms of recharge from rainfall under

various hydro geological conditions. The committee has suggested 15 to 20% as the rainfall infiltration factor for

limestone areas and 10 to 15% for granitic area having sandy soil with moderate rainfall and well-developed

drainage. An infiltration factor of 20% has been adopted for limestone, which are steely dipping, thick bedded,

jointed, highly fractured while 15% for granitic gneisses which appears to be reasonable while looking to the hydro

geological and geomorphological settings. Although, there is no need to use this theoretical approach in the case

that has been monitored. An attempt can be made to find out if it matches with the ground water recharge

calculated by seasonal fluctuation method.

Rr2mL = area x study year rainfall x R.I. factor

= 3.85 x 106

x 0.557 x 0.2

= 0.43 mcm/annum

≈ 0.43 mcm/annum (For limestone)

Rr2mG = Area x study year rainfall x R.I. factor

Page 339

20

= 3.65 x 106

x 0.557 x 0.15

= 0.30 mcm/annum

≈ 0.30mcm/annum (For Gneisses)

Rr2 = 0.43 + 0.30 = 0.73 mcm/annum

COMARISON OF RECHARGE

A. Recharge from water table fluctuation method = 0.62 mcm

B. Recharge from rainfall infiltration method = 0.73 mcm

PD = {(A - B)/B} x 100

= {(0.62 - 0.73)/ 0.73} x 100

= {(- 0.146)/ 0.73} x 100

= - 15%

Since the percentage of deviation (-15%) is greater than 20%, the recharge coefficient obtained from water table

fluctuation method.

RECHARGE FROM RAINFALL = 0.62 MCM

TOTAL DYNAMIC RESERVES

Considering all above recharge components, total dynamic reserves in the investigated area will be:

RTm = 0.62 mcm/annum

PLANT AND COLONY AREA

The plant area & colony area covers 3.442 Sq.km. (3.042 sq. km. plant area + 0.4 sq.km. colony area) now in this

area no irrigation activity is going on. The main source of ground water recharge is recharge due to rainfall by direct

percolation and by water used for horticulture & gardening.

RECHARGE DUE TO RAINFALL (Rrp)

(A) BY GROUNDWATER TABLE FLUCTUATION METHOD

Increment in ground water storage in gneisses of the core zone was monitored from few old dug wells. Average

seasonal fluctuation in Gneisses it is about 5m.

Recharge due to rainfall is computed by specific yield water table fluctuation method as below: -

Rr = A × S.F × Sy ------------------------------- (III)

Where,

Rr = Recharge due to rainfall in the investigated area.

A = Rechargeable area = 3.442 Km2

(gneisses)

S.F. = Seasonal fluctuation in water level.

5m as observed in Gneisses area

Sy = Specific yield = 1.5% for Gneisses aquifer

Page 340

21

Therefore,

RrP = 3.442 × 106

x 5 × 0.015

= 0.258 mcm/annum

RrP ≈ 0.258 mcm/annum (For Gneisses)

(C) BY RAINFALL INFILTRATION FACTOR METHOD:

In areas where groundwater level monitoring is not adequate in space & time, rainfall infiltration may be adopted.

The ground water estimation committee, Govt. of India (1997) has suggested norms of recharge from rainfall under

various hydro geological conditions. The committee has suggested 10 to 15% for granitic area having sandy soil with

moderate rainfall and well developed drainage. An infiltration factor 15% for granitic gneisses which appears to be

reasonable while looking to the hydro geological and geomorphological settings. Although, there is no need to use

this theoretical approach in the case that has been monitored. An attempt can be made to find out if it matches

with the ground water recharge calculated by seasonal fluctuation method.

Rr2P = area x study year rainfall x R.I. factor

= 3.442 x 106

x 0.557 x 0.15

= 0.286 mcm/annum

≈ 0.286 mcm/annum (For Gneisses)

COMARISON OF RECHARGE

A. Recharge from water table fluctuation method = 0.258 mcm

B. Recharge from rainfall infiltration method = 0.286 mcm

PD = {(A - B)/B} x 100

= {(0.258 - 0.286)/ 0.286} x 100

= {(- 0.028)/ 0.286} x 100

= - 9.8%

Since the percentage of deviation (-9.8%) is greater than -20%, the recharge coefficient obtained from water table

fluctuation will be taken.

RECHARGE FROM RAINFALL = 0.258 MCM

TOTAL DYNAMIC RESERVES

Considering all above recharge components, total dynamic reserves in the plant area will be:

RTP = 0.258 mcm/annum

RTP = 0.258 mcm/annum

TOTAL DYNAMIC RESERVES OF MINING LEASE , COLONY AND PLANT AREA

RT = RTm + RTP

= 0.62 + 0.258

RT = 0.878 MCM/ANNUM

GROUND WATER DRAFT

Ground water draft in the area can be estimated by assessing the various components of the following equation:

DT = Di + Dd + Din + Dw + Det + Do---------------------- (B)

DT = Total ground water draft

Di = Ground water draft for irrigation in the area

Dd = Ground water draft for domestic use in the area

Din = Ground water draft for industrial use in the area

Dw = Ground water draft for irrigation & domestic use around the area in the radius of influence.

Det = Ground water draft by way of evapotranspiration.

Do = Ground water draft as out flow from unconfined aquifer.

MINE & PLANT AREA

From equation no. (B)

DT = Di + Dd + Din + Do + Det

In the investigated area, ground water draft will occur only through existing ground water structure, which are

constructed in the mining lease area and being used for the industrial purpose. Evapo transpiration losses are

negligible as water table is deep. So at present there is no other ground water draft in the investigated area.

Hence ground water draft can be computed by reducing the equation (B) to:

DTm = Din

At present, there are three tube wells tapping limestone in mine area and 6 dug cum well tapping gneisses in the

plant area. All these tube wells and open dug wells are providing 500 cum/day for plant and 100 cum/day for mine.

Industry has got ground water withdrawal permission of 3800 KLD from CGWA. Hence total ground water

withdrawal will be

Din = = 3800 x 365

= 1.38mcm/annum

TOTAL GROUND WATER DRAFT OF MINE, COLONY & PLANT AREA (DT)

DT = 1.38 mcm/annum

GROUND WATER RESOURCES (BUFFER ZONE)

The area of Buffer zone (463.80 Sq.km. 10.942 sq.km = 452.858 sq.km.) lies in Jaitaran Tehsil of Pali district. This

buffer zone has alluvium in western part and crystalline metamorphic like granites, granitic gneisses and mica schist

Page 342

Ground Water Resources & Rainwater HarvestingSCL, RAS, JAITARAN, PALI

23

in eastern part. There is hardly any canal irrigation in the area; almost the entire area of buffer zone is irrigated by

open wells only. Main recharging factor in the area will be recharge due to rainfall and recharge due to return flow

from the applied irrigation.

The ground water fluctuation of water table during pre and post monsoon periods were recorded for the year 2015

from 44 key wells as per the guidelines of the Ministry of Environment & Forest and taking specific yield values of

10% for alluvium and 1.5% for crystalline metamorphic.

RECHARGE DUE TO RAINFALL (RRB)

(A) BY GROUNDWATER TABLE FLUCTUATION METHOD:

Ground water recharge from rainfall for the year 2005, which was below average rainfall for the area, has been

calculated by measuring the rise of water level in key wells of the 454.03 sq.km area of the buffer zone. The water

levels were recorded in the first week of June 2015 and were measured in the third week of September 2014. The

rise of water level indicates the quantity of water percolated to zone of saturation due to recharge from rainfall.

The rise has been varying from 0.6m to 0.75m in alluvium and 2.15 to 5.45m in gneisses, limestone and schist. Such

a high value of rise in water level in crystalline metamorphic is due to low fracture porosity of rocks. The average

rise has been found to be 0.65m in alluvium and 3.95m in metamorphic rocks. Specific yield value of 10% for

alluvium and 1.5% for gneisses will be taken. Out of total area of buffer zone about 49 sq.km falls under alluvium

and 405.03 sq.km in crystalline metamorphic.

Recharge due to rainfall in the buffer zone is computed by specific yield water table fluctuation method as below: -

Rr1 = A × S.F × Sy

For Alluvium

= 49 x 0.65 x 0.1

= 3.185 mcm/annum

For Gneisses

= 403.85 x 3.95 x 0.015

= 23.93 mcm/annum.

Rr1 = 3.185 + 23.928

= 27.113 mcm/annum.

(B) BY RAINFALL INFILTRATION FACTOR METHOD:

The ground water recharge can also roughly estimated by rainfall infiltration method. The ground water estimation

committee, Govt. of India (1997) has suggested norms of recharge from rainfall under various hydro geological

conditions. The committee has suggested 10 to 15% as the rainfall infiltration factor for hard rock areas having

weathered and fractured granitic gneiss and 10 to 15% for alluvial areas having sandy soils. At maximum level

infiltration factor for the area can be taken as 15%.

Rr2 = area x study year rainfall x R.I. factor

= 452.858 x 0.557 x 0.15

Page 343

Ground Water Resources & Rainwater HarvestingSCL, RAS, JAITARAN, PALI

24

= 37.83 mcm/annum

COMARISON OF RECHARGE

A. Recharge from water table fluctuation method = 27.113 mcm

B. Recharge from rainfall infiltration method = 37.83 mcm

PD = {(A - B)/B} x 100

= {(27.113 37.83)/ 37.83} x 100

= {(-10.717)/ 37.83} x 100

= - 28.34%

Since the percentage of deviation (-28.34%) is less than 20%, the recharge coefficient obtained from infiltration

factor method is multiplied by 0.8.

RECHARGE FROM RAINFALL = 37.83 X 0.8 = 30.26 MCM

RECHARGE DUE TO APPLIED IRRIGATION (RIB)

Ground water recharge from the return flow of irrigation water in sandy area is normally taken as 30% of the total

water applied for irrigation as suggested by the committee. There are 395 open dug wells operated for irrigation in

alluvial area and 670 in metamorphic.

Alluvium area

5.69 x 0.3 = 1.70 mcm/annum

Gneisses area

3.06 x 0.3 = 0.918 mcm/annum

RIB = 1.70 + 0.918

= 2.61mcm/annum

TOTAL RECHARGE OF BUFFER ZONE (RB)

RB = RB + RB

= 30.26 + 2.61

RB = 32.87 mcm/annum

GROUND WATER DRAFT OF BUFFER ZONE

From equation no. (B)

DTB = DiB + DdB + DinB + DoB + DetB

In the investigated area, ground water draft will occur due to applied irrigation, due to domestic use, due to

industrial use. Evatranspiration losses are negligible as water table is deep. Hence ground water draft can be

computed by reducing the equation (B) to:

DTB = DiB + DdB + DinB

DRAFT DUE TO APPLIED IRRIGATION (DiB)

Page 344

Ground Water Resources & Rainwater HarvestingSCL, RAS, JAITARAN, PALI

Associate Engineers & Consultants

25

The ground water draft in the buffer zone takes place mainly by dug well used for irrigation. There are about 395

dug wells tapping alluvium and 670 wells in gneisses and granites in 30 villages of buffer zone. These wells are being

operated by the cultivators for irrigation and are operated by diesel engines of 8/5 H.P. for 2 to 4 hours a day

depending on the capacity of well to sustain the pumping. Out of 670 wells in granites and gneisses about 610 are

being operated by pumps and rest without pump. As stated earlier discharge of wells in alluvium area is about

120cum/day. Wells of metamorphic have relative less discharge about 40cum/day for pump-operated wells and

about 20 cum/day for without pump operated wells. The annual draft has been calculated after considering that

these structures will operate only for 120 days in a year. The annual ground water withdrawal from these wells is as

under:

395 x 120 x 120 = 5.69 mcm/annum

610 x 40 x 120 = 2.93 mcm/annum

60 x 20 x 120 = 0.144 mcm/annum

DiB = 5.69 + 2.93 + 0.144

= 8.76 mcm/annum

DRAFT DUE TO INDUSTRIAL USE (DinB)

Ambuja cement plant at Rabriwas, which lies in the buffer zone, has also been using the ground water for its

industrial purpose. It has been reported that 10 tube wells with a discharge of 320 cum/day are in operation.

Hence, total draft due to industrial uses is

= 10 x 320

= 3200 cum/day

DinB = 1.16 mcm/annum

DRAFT DUE TO DOMESTIC & LIVESTOCK USE (DdB)

In the buffer area, the population is about 72077 Considering 100 liters (0.1 m3) as domestic consumption in rural

and semi urban area (as per GERC Report 1997), the total water withdrawal for domestic use will be:

DdB = 72077 x 0.1 x 365

= 2.63 mcm/annum

Cattle consumption is assumed to be 10% of projected domestic consumption, which comes out to be 0.263

mcm/aanum

TOTAL DRAFT IN THE BUFFER ZONE

DTB = DiB + DinB + DdB

= 8.76 + 1.16 + 2.89

Page 345

Ground Water Resources & Rainwater HarvestingSCL, RAS, JAITARAN, PALI

Associate Engineers & Consultants

26

DTB = 12.81 mcm/annum

SURPLUS DYNAMIC RESERVES OF BUFFER ZONE

Surplus ground water reserves are those reserves, which are available for utilization and are expected to recharge

every year. These reserves calculations are based on the rainfall of 2015. Therefore, surplus reserves (Rw) are

computed as follows: -

RWB = Total Dynamic Reserves - Total ground water draft

RWB = RTB - DTB

RWB = 32.87 12.81

RWB= 20.06 mcm/annum

At the study year rainfall total ground water recharge is 32.87 mcm/annum. Total ground water pumpage is 12.81

mcm, indicating that the area is under safe category and present stage of ground water development is 38% of the

long-term ground water recharge.

GROUND WATER ALLOCATION FOR FUTURE DOMESTIC USE

The net annual ground water availability is to be apportioned between domestic uses, as per the National Water

Policy, Requirement for Domestic water supply is to be accorded priority. The population will be 91480 as per the

projection by 2036 at the growth rate of 11.99%.

Allocation for Domestic water requirement =

= 91480 x 0.1 x 365

= 3.33 mcm/annum

Hence the Future Ground water allocation will be:

= 3.33 2.63

= 0.70 mcm/annum

AQUIFER PERFORMANCE TEST AND DETERMINATION OF AQUIFER PARAMETERS

AQUIFER PERFORMANCE TEST

Ground water is a replenish able resource, the quantification of which is of great importance for drawing up

plans for utilization and forms an important aspect in judging the potentiality of an area in the line of total

water requirement. A judicious exploitation of ground water resources cannot be planned without the basic

knowledge of ground water hydraulics which is used in evaluating aquifer parameters for predicating total

water resources.

Hydraulic parameters of aquifer system are determined by conducting aquifer performance test at optimum

extraction rate on representative set of exploratory & observation tubewells.

Observation during aquifer performance test includes measurement of water levels and discharge rate. Water

levels were measured with the help of water level indicator and the yield was measured with the help of water

meter installed at the outlet delivery pipe. The effect of pumping was measured in both pumping well at

standard interval for 1050min. data collected during the test were subject to analysis by Jacob s method to

calculate hydraulic parameters of aquifer.

In the present area, aquifer performance test were conducted on one set of exploratory & observation tube

wells). The details of aquifer performance test data are given in the following pages:

Step draw down test:

A step draw down test is one in which the discharge rate is changed in controlled stages. The discharge rate is

maintained at a constant value within the stage. The test is generally carried out in three steps. Drawdown

measurements are taken throughout the test with each step and maximum drawdown of the well is recorded.

The data obtained from the test are utilized in working out long duration pumping rate based on the

characteristics determined as a result of test.

The pumping well was subjected to step drawdown test in 3 stages of 100 min. each with the help of multistage

12.5 Hp submersible pump and control valve.

The data recorded during step drawdown test gave constant rate as 360 m3/day.

HYDRAULIC PARAMETERS:

Transmissivity:

Transmissivity of the aquifer is determined based on Jacob s straight line method, which present good empirical

technique to arrive at most useful hydraulic parameter for the aquifer using all the three segments of time

drawdown curve spread over one log cycle.

First Segment

T = 2.3 Q/ 4 s

Where,

T = Transmissivity of aquifer in m2/day

Q= optimum yield at which test was carried out = 360 m3/day

S= drawdown intercept for one log cycle = 5.6 m (Fig.1)

T = (2.3 x 360)/ ( 4 x3.14 x 5.6)

= 11.7 m2/day

Second Segment

T = 2.3 Q/ 4 s

Where,

T = Transmissivity of aquifer in m2/day

Q= optimum yield at which test was carried out = 360 m3/day

S= Drawdown intercept for one log cycle = 1.6 m (Fig.1)

T = (2.3 x 360)/ ( 4 x3.14 x 1.6)

Page 352

33

= 41.20 m2/day

Third Segment

T = 2.3 Q/ 4 s

Where,

T = Transmissivity of aquifer in m2/day

Q= optimum yield at which test was carried out = 360 m3/day

S= residual drawdown intercept for one log cycle = 0.3 m (Fig.1)

T = (2.3 x 360)/ (4 x3.14 x 0.3)

= 219.74 m2/day

Average Transmissivity

= (11.7+41.20+219.74)/3

= 272.64/3 = 90.88 m2/day

Hydraulic Conductivity:

This parameter is defined as rate of flow of water through one meter thickness of aquifer from unit cross

sectional area. It is determined by the formula:

K = T/b

Where,

T= Transmissivity of the aquifer = 90.88 m2/day

b= saturated thickness of the tested well = 128.62 m ( depth of well water level)

K = 90.88/128.62

= 0.71 m/day

K = 0.71 m/day

Radius of Influence:-

In the investigated area one tubewell is located at a distance of 120m from the pumping well. During the

pumping test it has been observed that there is no drawdown in that well during the pumping. Hence in

absence of any other observation well in near vicinity the radius of influence can be taken as half of the distance

between the wells i.e. 100m at a pumping rate of 360 m3/day.

RADIUS OF INFLUENCE = 100M

Hydraulic Gradient:

As per the water level contour map of the buffer zone hydraulic gradient works out to be 2.8 m/km.

Effect of Mining on groundwater regime:

Observation well of the 120m depth in the area was observed for change in water level and quantity during 17

hrs of pumping. It was observed that continuous withdrawal of water @ 360m3/day caused effect of 10.17m in

the pumping well Further, analysis of data also reveals that there is no effect on natural recharge rate beyond

radius of influence which works out to be 60m with continuous pumping of 17 hrs. However, continuous

pumping for several days may spread the cone of depression beyond 60m. It is also observed that as area falls

under hard rock and groundwater occurs in fractures of the rocks, there is a decrease in tube well discharge in

peak summer season. With the decreased discharge, radius of influence also decreases.

The mining activity, as per the conceptual plan is proposed to be confined to an area of 450 hectares of the

limestone area and will be up to elevation of 252m above m.s.l. the mining pit will be about 123m below the

general land surface and will be ultimately left as water reservoir. This situation will occur atleast after 36 years.

The mining activity, initially being confined to the top of a hill, which lies above the zone of saturation, is not

going to affect the ground water. However, when the main mining pit achieves the elevation of 350 msl, it will

start receiving ground water inflow during the post monsoon period.

IMPACT OF MINING ON GROUND WATER REGIME

The ground water assessment studies carried out for the mining lease area indicates that there is surplus

exploitable ground water potential of 0.658 mcm it is because of adequate ground water recharge from rainfall

Page 354

35

and negligible groundwater extraction in the mining lease area measuring 7.5 sq.km. it is therefore clear that

core area is not overexploited as compared to the buffer zone.

It is therefore observed that mining of limestone has not affected the ground water recharge. On the contrary,

there is surplus ground water potential in the lease area as compared to its adjoining buffer zone.

During The hydrogeological investigation it has also been observed that occurrence of ground water is generally

controlled by secondary porosity developed in the metamorphic and due to this metamorphic generally have

very low hydraulic conductivity this also decreases with depth.

RADIUS OF INFLUENCE AROUND THE MINING PIT

The open cast mining generally is carried out below local water table conditions. Under these circumstances

groundwater accumulates in the mine pit. The quantity of the groundwater that can accumulate in the pit

bottom is governed by the aquifer properties and their lateral extent beside proximity of surface water sources

like perennial rives, ponds, reservoirs, tanks, springs etc. in order to win the ore it is therefore essential to

provide dry bottom conditions for the mine related operations. This task is generally achieved by installing

pumps. While dewatering the mine pit the groundwater levels around the pit would gradually decline thereby

creating a cone of depression. The lateral extent of this cone of depression depends on pumping rate, pumping

duration, boundary conditions and aquifer parameters.

The mining operations are invariably are governed by certain environmental laws in order to minimize their

impacts on the natural resources in the vicinity. Groundwater regime around the mining lease is one of such

natural resources, which come under the purview of the environmental law implementation. Under this law the

mining operation should not cause significant decline in the groundwater levels. In order to find lateral extent of

such groundwater lowering around the active open cast mining involving dewatering several scientific methods

can be adopted. Few of the relevant and important methods are describe in the following paragraphs:

METHODOLOGY

(1) Well equation method:

This method is essentially meant for estimating the pumping rate from proposed mine excavation and is based

on standard well- hydraulic theory. However, expression for estimating the influence radius has been derived in

the present case by readjusting the equation derived for estimating the pumping rate. This method is somewhat

complicated by the transient development of the cone of depression caused by pumping and, in practice, the

approach is to compute a range of pumping rates that will sustain the required water table drawdown under

steady state conditions. To do this, the radius of an equivalent well must be used to replace the multiple well

point. The equivalent well is assumed to be a circular area representing the plan-view size of the excavated

mine pit and generating a cone of pumping depression in the groundwater table similar to that produce by well

point system.

In the case of circular mine pit excavation, the radius of the equivalent well (r) is the radius of the

excavated mine pit. in a rectangular or polygonal mine pit excavation, the equivalent radius (rc) is

derived from the equation:

rc = ab/ ------------- (i)

Or

rc = A/ -----------------(ii)

Where

Rc= equivalent radius of an equivalent well (i.e. rc = r) and r is small in comparison to the radius of the cone of

depression (R); a and b are the length and breadth of the excavated rectangular shape mine pit. In case of

polygonal excavation the area (A) of the polygon can be estimated and substituted in equation to estimate the

equivalent radius.

= the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter.

The pumping rate Q required to dewater the mine pit excavation may be estimated by using the gravity flow

equation:

Q = K(h12- h2

2)/In (R/rc) --------------------- (iii)

Where,

Q= pumping rate from mine pit

h1 = saturated thickness of the aquifer before pumping.

h2 = elevation above the base of the aquifer for the steady state condition.

R = Radius of fully developed cone of depression.

Page 360

Ground Water Resources & Rainwater HarvestingSCL, RAS, JAITARAN, PALI

Associate Engineers & Consultants

41

r= radius of equivalent well

in case of active mine operations it become essential to estimate the zone of influence R around the mine pit

due to a known pumping rate Q derived from the groundwater. This can be achieved by rewriting the equation

as :

In (R/rc) = K(h12- h2

2)/Q ---------------- (iv)

R = rc Exp{[ K(h12- h2

2)/Q]} ----------------- (v)

Hence, the influence radius due to mine pit dewatering can be estimated using the expression (v). the factor

(h12- h2

2) can be taken as the average depth of mine pit bottom below the local groundwater table. Having

known the pumping rate Q from the mine pit if the entire pit water is derived from the groundwater or that

component of the flow derived from groundwater contribution, hydraulic conductivity of the saturated zone it

is possible to estimate the influence zone.

(2) Hudak s method of capture zone delineation:

The capture zone defines the part if an aquifer that will contribute water to a pumping well over a period of

time ( Hudak,1994). In the present case the well has been replaced by a mine pit from which groundwater has

been pumped as part of the dewatering process. The volume of aquifer, Vc that contributes water to a mine pit

over a period of time t is :

Vc = Q(t)/ne ------------------------- (vi)

Where Q is the discharge rate from the mine pit, and ne is the effective porosity of the aquifer.

The area Ac around the excavated mine pit that contributes water to the mine pit is given by;

Ac = Vc/b ------------------------(vii)

Where b is the saturated thickness of aquifer.

Combining equations (vi) & (vii) yields

Ac = Q(t)/ {ne b} ------------------- (viii)

Thus, the area of the capture zone is inversely proportional to the effective porosity, i.e. Ac 1/ ne

For a homogeneous and isotropic aquifer with an axisymmetric radial flow the radius of the capture zone

around the mine pit can be estimated as;

R = [ A/ ] + rc ------------------ (ix)

Where Ac is the equivalent radius of the excavated portion of the non circular mine pit and rc is equal to the

radius of the excavated mine pit if the pit is circular in shape.

Hence by knowing the pumping rate from the mine pit and effective porosity, equivalent mine pit radius and

saturated thickness the radius of influence zone around the mine pit can be estimated using above relations.

The effective porosity term in the above equation can be replaced by specific yield as the specific yield of an

aquifer represents the void space that will yield water to mine pit is effective in furnishing water supplies, it is

also know as effective porosity (Johnson, 1967). Hence, specific yield is equal to effective porosity (Karanth,

1994).

Research has also suggested that in sediments, the pores are interconnected and the effective pore fraction for

water molecules should be 1.0, and hence effective porosity is equal to porosity because (Fetter.1990)

ne = n (porosity) x 1.0 (effective pore fraction)

it is easy to estimate the insitu specific yield of an aquifer through pumping tests rather than effective porosity

of the aquifer. Therefore using specific yield in the above expressions is justified.

COMPUTATION

1. well equation method

The expression required for estimating the radius of influence zone in this method is written as ;

R = rc Exp{[ K(h12- h2

2)/Q]}

The input parameters for this method from the lease area are;

K the hydraulic conductivity of the aquifer = 0.71 m/day.

h12- h2

2the saturated thickness of aquifer = 93m.

Q the mine pit pumping rate = 1018 Cum/day

rc the radius of equivalent well = 800m

By substituting all the values in the above expression the radius of influence zone will be 977m from centre

of mine pit.

2. Hudak s method of capture zone delineation

The expressions required for estimating the radius of influence zone in this method are written as;

(1) Vc = Q(t)/ne

(2) Ac = Vc/b

(3) R = [ A/ ] + rc

the input parameters for this method from the lease area ;

Q groundwater component of the mine pit discharge rate = 1018Cum/day.

t the time of pumping = 365days

ne the effective porosity at the lease area = 0.02

b the saturated thickness = 93m.

the radius/ equivalent radius of mine pit = 800m

by substituting the above values in the expression (1), (2) & (3) we get the values of;

(1) Vc = Q(t)/ne

Vc = 18578500 Cum.

(2) Ac = Vc/b

Ac = 199768 Sq.m.

(3) R = [ Ac / ] + rc

R = 942 m

Therefore the radius of influence zone estimated by this method is 921m.

Average of two method

1. well equation method = 977m.

2. Hudak s method = 942m

Average = 959 960m

After reviewing the lease area map, it is seen that there is no spring, public well, river or lake in the area of 1KM

from the mining pits indicating that there will not be any influence of pumping water from the mining pits on

any other sources.

IMPACT OF MINING ON WATER QUALITY

With the initiation of mining activity on the top of limestone hill, no impact on the quality of surface and

ground water is expected. Accordingly, the quality of water will also be not affected due to mining activity.

Limestone, hard and crystalline in nature does not contribute any constituents to surface and ground water

that may cause increase in salinity. Generally, in an arid area, any major quantitative changes in groundwater

withdrawal also produce qualitative changes in the ground water. Here as the area is not over exploited, there

is no possibility of any changes in the water quality.

CHAPTER-4

ARTIFICIAL GROUND WATER RECHARGE

NEED FOR ARTIFICAL GROUND RECHARGE

Based on the assessment of long term ground water recharge of mining lease and plant area, which amounts to

0.72 mcm/annum, the total requirement of 3800 KLD will go upto 1.04 mcm/annum. This requirement can be

meet out from both mine and plant area but by doing this status of ground water become 114% resulting to

overexploitation. As over exploitation of ground water resources can not be allowed, it is necessary that ground

water storage of the area must be augmented by rainwater harvesting so that the ultimate ground water

development become less than 70% of the ground water recharge.

NATURE OF PROBLEM

Rainfall is only source of water in the area; rainfall & evapotranspiration are two major factors controlling the

quantum of rainwater available for recharge. The investigated area receives rainfall for just 20 days a year. Thus

not only the total rainfall but also its availability is confined to few days during which entire water resources

planning has to be done.

The other important factors controlling the natural recharge to ground water are rainfall intensity,

hydrogeology & depth of water level. It is observed that majority of rainfall occurs in 3-5 major storms lasting

only a few hours. Natural recharge to ground water is further restricted due to impervious hard strata. Some of

water, which infiltrates during rainy period, is entrapped in the soil and it never reaches the water level. This

water is ultimately lost due to potential evapo- transpiration. The rates of potential evapo - tranpiration (PET) is

very high in the area. On an average, annual PET is higher than the rainfall in the area. Thus any artificial

recharge by indirect techniques should be such that most of the water stored on surface is put to ground water

within the shortest possible time to avoid losses.

As indicated earlier, hydro geologically the mining lease area is composed of crystalline, thick bedded, steeply

dipping limestone and is most favourably constituted for artificial ground water recharge through check dams,

bunds etc. This will help in augmenting the groundwater storage around the tube wells and open wells so that

they can sustain in summer also.

Design of Roof Top Rainwater and Surface Runoff Harvesting System

Rainfall intensity calculation

This is the most important parameter of rainfall, which is required for design of various structures. In

engineering design, it is uneconomical to design structures to cope with extreme events. A designer takes a

calculated risk and designs a structure that will accommodate the largest rainstorm that can be expected during

a particular interval.

The central soil & water conservation research & training institute, DehraDun have developed empirical

relationship to calculate rainfall intensity for different agro climatic regions. Which is described as under: -

I = KTa/ (t + b)

n

Page 364

45

Where,

I = Rainfall intensity in mm/hr.

T = Recurrence interval in years = 10 years

t= Rainfall duration in hours

K= Constant = 6.219

a = Constant = 0.1026

b = Constant = 0.5

n = Constant = 1.1172

The parameter, t (duration, hr.) the time of concentration of an area, can be computed using the following

equations:

t= 0.01947 Kc0.77

Where,

Kc = √(L3/H)

t= time of concentration

L = Maximum length of travel in meters = 540m.

H = Difference in elevation between most remote point and outlet in meters

Highest level of surface runoff area = 390 m.

Lowest level of surface runoff area = 384 m.

Difference of level (H) = 6 m.

Length of flow = 540 m.

Time of concentration (t) = 0.01947 [(L3/H)

1/2]

0.77

= 0.01947 [(5403/6)

1/2]

0.77

= 13.98min = 0.2331 Hours

Rainfall intensity for the investigated area

I = KTa/ (t + b)

n

= 6.219 (10)0.1026

/(0.2331 +0.5)1.1172

= 11.14 cm/hr

= 111.4 mm/hr.

Rooftop rainwater runoff:-

The industrial roofs are of RCC finished with cement sand mortar. Most of the water can be collected with roof

drains hence 85% rainwater can be available. About 15% of water is lost in evaporation etc. The water is

collected through rainwater drains from rooftop. The roof should be finished to avoid percolation and should

be cleaned every year before rains. The roof top rainwater & surface runoff rainwater shall be collected

through existing rainwater drains

Surface Runoff of Rainwater

The subsurface reservoirs are technically feasible alternative for storing surplus monsoon runoff. Wide

spectrums of techniques are in vogue to recharge ground water reservoir. The artificial recharge techniques

vary widely depending upon hydro geological studies of the area. The detailed hydro geological studies were

carried out and it was found that water table of area is 7 to 15m in post monsoon period.

The maximum rate at which water can enter the soil at particular point depends upon infiltration capacity. The

infiltration capacity depends upon soil type, moisture content, organic matter, vegetative cover, season, air

entrapment, etc. The infiltration and percolation capacity are closely related. The infiltration takes place due to

gravity but capillary force divert gravity water.

The infiltration capacity of land formation is not suitable for surface percolation system hence for recharge of

ground water reservoir through injection well system is proposed. This system will improve both quality &

quantity of water.

Runoff coefficient for soil of Ras area can be taken as 20%. Runoff coefficient for limestone hills, that has no soil

cover and very scanty vegetation can be taken as 50%. Similarly for cemented area it has been taken as 70% and

for lawn and other green area it can be taken as 35%.

Average runoff coefficient taken for the area is as under:

1. Average runoff coefficient for rooftop = 85%

2. Average runoff coefficient for cemented area = 70%

3. Average runoff coefficient for Lawn = 35%

4. Average runoff coefficient for open land (alluvium) = 20%

5. Average runoff coefficient for limestone hills = 50%

Following methods shall carry out the rainwater harvesting

1. Roof top rainwater harvesting by recharge tube wells.

2. Surface rainwater runoff available from roads, cemented area and open land inside the industry shall

be used for recharging through existing dugcum bore wells/ dry tube wells.

3. Surface runoff of rainwater available from the hills of mine area shall be recharged to underground

water bearing aquifer by constricting recharge pond, injection wells.

4. Surface runoff available from the nala entering in the colony through existing openwells/injection wells

with Check bund in nala bed.

B. Blacked Topped roads & cemented area:

The Plant area has approach roads from entry gate to different buildings. These roads will be 8m, 6m wide.

The project area also has parking area & other cemented portion. Slop of these cemented area and roads

are maintained in such a way that the available runoff should move towards the proposed open drains and

this water shall be taken to the recharge tube wells. Total roads and cemented area has been calculated as

under.

Area under road and cemented portion

rainwater it has been proposed that the slop of the open land should be kept towards the drains and water so

collected should be injected in the dry openwell/ borewells.

Area of open land = 2023450 Sq.m.

Taking 20% as runoff coefficient for open land, the availability of water has been estimated as under:

2023450 x 0.445 x 0.20 = 180087 Cum. -------------- (iii)

Similarly, there is about 18550 sq.m. of area is under lawn. Taking 35% as runoff coefficient for this green area,

the availability of water has been estimated as under

18550 x 0.445 x 0.35 = 2889 Cum. ------------ (iv)

To accommodate rainwater runoff available in the plant area total 11 no of rainwater harvesting structures ( 8

open wells and 3 BW) and one rainwater harvesting pit of 147000 Cum capacity near plant gate has been

constructed.

COLONY AREA

A. Roof top rainwater Runoff:

Page 367

The area has many buildings with V-shaped and flat roof. To collect rainwater, gutters are attached at the end

of roof and these gutters are connected to rainwater drains. The total Rooftop rainwater shall be diverted to

the recharge tube wells through drains and injected into aquifer after passing through the filter pit.

Total Roof top area = 51000 Sq.m.

Average Yearly Rainfall = 445 mm

Average Rooftop Rainwater Available:

= A x Rf x AvRc

Where,

A = Area of Roof.

Rf = Rainfall = 445m.m. (Average)

AvRc = Average runoff coefficient = 85%

= 51000 x 0.445 x 0.85 = 19291 Cum. -------------- (v)

B. Blacked Topped roads & cemented area:

The colony area has approach roads from entry gate to different buildings. These roads will be 8m, 6m

wide. The project area also has parking area & other cemented portion. Slop of these cemented area and

roads are maintained in such a way that the available runoff should move towards the proposed open

drains and this water shall be taken to the recharge tube wells. Total roads and cemented area has been

calculated as under.

Area under road and cemented portion

= 200000 Sq.m.

Taking 70% as runoff coefficient for both roads and cemented area, the availability of water has been estimated

as under:

200000 x 0.445 x 0.7 = 62300 Cum. -------------- (vi)

C. Open land:-

Total open area considered for rainwater harvesting is 149000 Sq.m. To collect maximum amount of rainwater

it has been proposed that the slop of the open land should be kept towards the drains and water so collected

should be injected in the dry openwell/ borewells.

Area of open land = 149000 Sq.m.

Taking 20% as runoff coefficient for open land, the availability of water has been estimated as under:

To accommodate rainwater runoff available in the colony area 5 injection wells with desilting and filter pit and

one harvesting pit of 40000 Cum capacity has been constructed.

D. Nala Originating from Eastern side of Industrial Unit:-

From the eastern side of industrial unit, three seasonal nala originates. These nalas enters in the newly

acquired area from eastern & southeastern side (Refer Plat-1). This land is the part of pond located outside the

Khera gate of industry. Similarly rainwater from 5400N to 3000N of Mining lease area is also flows towards the

same pond total catchment area works out to be 4857938 Sq.m . Hence a huge quantity of rainwater

Page 368

49

accumulates near the boundary, which is located in the pond. This accumulated rainwater is being used for

recharging by diverting it through large diameter pipes to large diameter open wells constructed in the

industrial boundary. Taking 30% as the runoff coefficient average runoff available has been calculated as

under:

Catchment area = 2480000 + 2377938 = 4857938 Sq.m.

Runoff coefficient = 30%

Available runoff = 4857938 x 0.445 x 0.3

= 648534Cum.

Expected recharge = 648534 x 0.7

= 453974 cum/annum ----------- (v)

Boundary wall of the industry is situated in the pond hence act as a retaining wall. Rainwater thus accumulated

has been diverting to large diameter open wells ( 4 No.) through pipes. To control inflow of rainwater in the

wells these pipes are provided with the control valves.

E. Nalas Originating From Eastern & South-Eastern Side of Colony area

Two nalas originating from nearby areas flow in different directions in the Colony area. Total catchment area of

these nalas has been calculated. It works out to be 4200000 Sq.m. Taking 35% as the runoff coefficient for

gently sloping barren land average runoff available has been calculated as under:

Catchment area = 4200000 Sq.m.

Runoff coefficient = 35%

= 4200000 x 0.445 x 0.35

Available Runoff = 654150 Cum/ annum

Expected recharge = 654150 x 0.8

= 523320 cum/annum --------------- (vi)

As this runoff water is available in a seasonal nala. to get maximum amount of water for recharge two anicut

with 1m height and 4m length at different location has been Constructed.

Total Recharge available in Plant area

= (i) + (ii) + (iii) + (iv) + (v) + (vi)

= 12539 + 301174 + 180087 + 2889 + 19291+ 62300 + 13261 + 453974 + 523320

= 1568835 Cum/annum.------------- (A)

2. Mine Area

Mining lease area has a topographic difference of about 100m between lower and upper most portion. The min.

RL is 370m and max. RL is 470m. as the formations are steeply deeping, most of the rainwater flows through the

slopes. Most of the rainwater thus available as runoff is available in two recharge reservoirs through diversion

channels. Total water holding capacity is about 650000 cum & 40000 Cum beside that two injection wells also

constructed in these ponds. Considering 4 to 5 storms per season, this reservoir can hold a huge quantity of

water.

Taking 50% as the Average runoff coefficient runoff available has been calculated as under:

Between 8000N to 5400N

Catchment area = 2326197 Sq.m.

Runoff coefficient = 50%

= 2326197 x 0.445 x 0.5

= 517579Cum.

Rainwater available at the foot of hill will be chanalised by drains and then diverted towards the recharge

reservoir of 40000 .

Expected recharge in mine area = 517579 x 0.70

= 362305 Cum/annum--------------- (B)

AQUIFER SYSTEM WITHIN 1 KM RADIUS AND ITS MANAGEMENT FOR RECHARGING

As per the hydrogeological study and hydrogeomorhic map of the area, following aquifer system occurs in 1 km

radius of the area.

1. Alluvial Aquifer

2. Hard rock Aquifer

Page 370

Ground Water Resources & Rainwater HarvestingSCL, RAS, JAITARAN, PALI

Associate Engineers & Consultants

51

The alluvial aquifer occurs only near the river trace & rest of the area occupied by hard rock aquifer, the alluvial

aquifer is most suitable for ground water recharge. In this area construction of bunds, subsurface dykes are

most suitable measure, beside that if possible constructor of recharge pond may also be feasible.

In hard rocks, like granites gneisses & mica schist ground water occurs in upper weathered zone & deep seated

fracture zone. In these rocks occurrence of deep seated fracture zones is very rare. Hence in this area for ground

water recharge, recharge ponds, open wells are most suitable structures.

As described in chapter 4, industry is already doing artificial recharge in nearby areas by means of construction,

rejuvenation of village ponds, check bunds & connecting open wells with the available rainwater runoff.

A Note on Polluted River Stretches Identified by CPCB / MoEFCC in Rajasthan Region of India

Introduction

Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) has established a network of monitoring locations on aquatic resources

across the country. For identification of the water bodies or their parts where water quality is at variance with

water quality criteria, it was felt important to measure water quality of that water body or its part.

Subsequently, through a wide network of water quality monitoring, water quality data are acquired. The data

thus obtained was analyzed statistically and compared with the water quality criteria with respect to BOD.

Criteria for Prioritization

The water quality data is analyzed and monitoring locations exceeding the water quality criteria are identified

as polluted locations with respect to risk. The degree of violation is w.r.t water quality criteria for drinking

water source with conventional treatment with respect to BOD. The polluted locations in a continuous

sequence are defined as Polluted River Stretches and categorized in five priority classes based on the

concentration of Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) in mg/l as:

BOD level (mg/l.) Priority Class

Greater than 30 I

20 - 30 II

10 - 20 III

6 - 10 IV

3 - 6 V

Proposed Expansion of Integrated Cement Plant is located near Village: Ras, Tehsil: Jaitaran, District: Pali

(Rajasthan). Water Quality of rivers in Rajasthan is measured at 17 locations on 11 rivers and among them 14

locations is non-complying to the Water Quality Criteria mentioned above with respect to BOD. These 14

locations are on 8 rivers. The names of polluted rivers are Banas, Chambal, Chappi, Ghaggar, Kali Sindh,

Paravati, Jawai and Ujad. These eight rivers are identified under Priority classes as:

State Priority I Priority II Priority III Priority IV Priority V Total

Rajasthan 1 1 1 - 5 8

River (s) / Water Body within 10 km radius vicinity of the plant are:

1. Lilri River at an approx. distance of 2.0 km in North direction

2. Sukri River at an approx. distance of 8.0 Km in SSW direction

Lilri River is the main tributary of Guhiya River which originates in the hillocks near villages Khariyaniv and

Tharasani in Pali district and is not identified as polluted as per standards set by CPCB.

However, River Sukri comes into origin after confluence of Khari and Jawai River. Jawai River has been

identified as one of the eight Polluted Rivers, though the polluted stretch of the Jawai River as mentioned

below is falling at large distance from the project site.

The stretch of Jawai River is depicted below and does not fall within the vicinity of Proposed Expansion project

and is shown in figure given below:

Hence, it could be concluded that Plant site does not fall near to polluted stretch of River identified by the

CPCB / MoEFCC.

2006. For this purpose, the Proponent had submitted information in the prescribed

format (Form-1) along with a Pre-feasibility Report. The proposal was considered by

the Reconstituted Expert Appraisal Committee in its 35th meeting held during June

24th-26th, 2015.

2. The existing mine lease area is 750 ha. Mining Lease was granted wide letter

no. P-3(65/ Khan/Group-1/91 dated 06.08.1996 and Mining Operation was started on

13 June 1997. The mining method is open cast Mechanized with maximum bench

height of 12 m and minimum bench width of 20 m. Controlled blasting, wet drilling/dry

drilling with dust collector, high capacity HEMM, crushing and haulage are being/ will

be practiced. Ultimate pit slope is proposed to be kept at 45°. Over burden and inter

burden is being stacked/will be stacked at earmarked area(s) and backfilled in worked

out pit. Water spray in crusher is being/ will be practiced. Controlled blasting using

shock tube detonator is being /wlll be used. Rock breaker is being /wtll be used in

place of secondary blasting. The haul roads are being /will be kept wide to support

two-way traffic and properly maintained by road compactor and regular water

spraying. Garland drains and de-silting pit are made all around the OB dumps. Waste

water generated from office toilets is being disposed through soak pit via septic tank.

Work shop discharge is being used for dust suppression after removal of oil and

grease. The total waste generation in Quarry would be 302.0 million tones. Waste
