Method of Quarry

The method of working for Building Stone/M-Sand in the Quarry lease area for the

proposed plan period is by Semi Mechanized method of opencast quarrying.

Considering the technical parameters like surface topography, quality variations, geo-

technical aspects, required rate of production & available resources etc, it is proposed

to work this deposit by adopting 3m bench height and with an ultimate pit slope of

45° by Small scale quarrying activity with small dia jack Hammer drilling & blasting

and use of Hydraulic Rock Breaker. The benches height and the width will be

maintained as specified by DGMS. The width of the working benches, shall not be less

than the height. The Year wise Production & Development plan indicates the

workings, site for disposal of waste/overburden etc., as shown in Plate No-05. The

Plan showing the position of workings, proposed extensions, bench parameters, pit

configuration at the end of Plan Period is indicated in Production & Development plan

as shown in.

Due care will be taken in designing the benches by straightening & advancing the

benches for effective and economical operation of the quarry. Since the ground water

table is not at much depth and the rainfall is moderate during monsoon, drainage of

water shall be properly coursed with series of check dams & retaining walls so as not

to disturb the natural drainage pattern of the area.

Loading and Hauling: Loading of the Building Stone/M-Sand blocks will be done

mechanically to tippers of 10 tons capacity and transported from the quarry to the

Stack yard and mineral rejection/waste will also be handled mechanically. In the

quarry the road will be maintained with 1 in 16 gradients. Sufficient number of bunds

and parapet walls will be made all along the quarry haulage roads wherever necessary

in order to maintain safe working conditions by using the waste generated during the

course of quarry operations.

Solid Waste Management:

Intercalated waste and overburden towards western part of the lease area above the

Building Stone/M-Sand is to be handled during Quarrying operations and the same is

very less as the entire area is almost a rocky terrain. An estimated quantity of around

2,200 tons of waste is required to be handled during the proposed 5 year plan of the

quarry lease period. To accommodate this waste material, non-mineralized/safety

zone boundary of 7.5 mtrs stretch area is earmarked.

The Quarrying pits after extraction of the Building Stone/M-Sand will be reclaimed by

suitable afforestation techniques and portion of the pit may be left as water reservoir

& storage of rain water shall help in recharging the ground water table and improve

the water regime of the area. Proper fencing of the lease area shall be taken up to

avoid entry of animals & trespassing into the lease area and also such that the same

is also useful to the local community.

Hydrology

There is a bore well located about 500mtrs towards the North Eastern side of the

quarry area is used for drinking purpose and it can be stored in to syntax tanks. The

analysis of this bore well water is done and the parameters are within the permissible

limits. The surface water is in the form of seasonal rainfall and the ground water

bodies encountered below 200-210m depth in the area from the surface level. The

area is small; so far no report on hydrological studies has been carried out in the area

under question. There is no potential of acid mine drainage.

The proposed area to be worked during the first five years is shown in the Quarry

Layout plan. The future proposed reclamation is by suitably sloping the quarry

benches at the end of quarry lease period of the quarry and by way of afforestation

on the dumps and open places outside the working and lease areas.

Existing Infrastructure:

The construction of temporary structures for Quarry office, Rest shelter, First aid

station, sanitation & etc., are proposed to be provided in the non mineralized area of

Quarry lease.

The details are collected from the core and Buffer zone of the quarry lease. The

Drinking water, electricity and primary education facilities are available in almost all

the villages. The Police Stations, Post Offices, Dispensary facilities, Phones, College,

and Railway station are present in Taluk and District head quarters of Bangalore.

There is good approachable weather roads present in the buffer zone of the area.



State highway passing through major towns and nearby villages. There are no

Sensitive areas for ecological reasons. However, Basavanatar State Forest is situated

towards Western side of the lease area and also there is no inter-state boundary

within 10 kms radius of the quarry site. Necessary precautionary measures in the form

of infrastructure shall be provided during the course of quarry operations. A

parapet/retaining wall as a fence shall be constructed all along the lease boundary to

avoid trespassing of men & animals. A 7.5 mtr strip of green belt shall also be

developed all along the boundary which helps as a dust barrier and also reduces noise

levels in the buffer zone.

5. PLANNING BRIEF

Conceptual Quarry Plan:

The entire strike length of the deposit is exposed & the quarry is envisaged to be

worked forming benches of 3mtrs height and width more than the height of the

bench with a general pit slope of 45° degrees. The ultimate pit limit is marked as

shown on the Geological plan. However, when the Building Stone/M-Sand is

proved to its full depth, the conceptual plan will be duly modified. The possibility of

Building Stone/M-Sand below is to be examined further by exploration.

The Quarrying is proposed to be taken up with the capacity of Development &

production of ROM of about 5,314 tons of Building Stone/M-Sand and Over burden

of about 41,768 tons during the proposed End of Quarry Lease Period. Any

modifications in the quantum of production will be intimated & details will be

furnished to Department of Mines & Geology. The mined out pits after extraction

of the Building Stone/M-Sand will be reclaimed by suitable engineering and

afforestation techniques. The successive advancement of the pit at the end is

depicted in the conceptual plan vide plate No.07. The design & layout of the

quarry benches is shown on the above referred relevant plan. During the

conceptual plan period the anticipated production levels of Building Stone/M-Sand

for the next 5-years period will be 5,207 tons of Building Stone/M-Sand & 107 tons

of Waste. The quantity of waste/Quarrying losses generated is very less & the

same shall be utilized for formation of safety bunds, road leveling work to fill pot

holes etc.,



The working results obtained during the present plan period and the data

generated by working the deposit will be taken into consideration and accordingly

exploration programme if required will be charted out for re-assessment of the

mineral reserves at the end of the fifth year as there is enough reserves till the

end of the fifth year which will be helpful to carry out production during the first

scheme period. The result of the same will also be thus helpful for further

modifications of the Conceptual plan. The guidelines of State Government i.e. DMG

will be followed during the conceptual period in respect of mineral conservation &

Environmental Management Plan.

The quantity of waste/mining losses generated is very less & the same shall be

utilized for formation of safety bunds, road leveling work to fill pot holes etc.,

Population Projection

The man powers of quarry include Quarry manager/Foreman, Mine Mate, Supervisors,

skilled and unskilled Labors and other staff etc. As far the socio-economic is

concerned from the Quarry activity nearby villagers shall get direct 31 & indirect

employment for about 50 persons. The proposed Quarry activities also shall bring the

positive change in the villages as the quarry shall provide socio-economic activities in

the region.

Green belt Development

The afforestation to be taken up provides the requisite floral biodiversity. At the end

of the Plan period non rocky area if any will be afforested and wherever possible and

along roadsides afforestation will be proposed of area is earmarked for afforestation

during the proposed plan period. Details of the afforestation program are given below:

Year Number of Plantations Planned Location Species

First 200

haulage & avenue plantation

Bio-fuel, Neem, Mango, Hongemara, Nerale, Bettada Nellikai, Aralimara, Muthuga, Bevu, Seeme Hunse Mara, Aladamara tall growing trees with guidance from forest nursery,

Second 200

Third 200

Fourth 200

Fifth 200

Total 1000

During the afforestation work, the combination of different species shall be done. This

selection shall be made on the basis of the local plant growth in the surrounding

areas. It is always better to plant mixed species together. Guidance from the local

forest department shall be taken in the selection of species and their maintenance.

The plantation work requires considerable quantities of seeds, seedlings and saplings

of different species; Nursery stock for this plantation will be available from the local

forest and horticulture department.

Assessment of Infrastructure Demand:

The existing road network will be sufficient to meet the proposed production capacity.

However, required infrastructure for transport within the leasehold area will be further

strengthened and improved. No new routes or alternations are required in this

regards.

Amenities/Facilities

Applicant proposes to employ about 20 persons. This employment has a positive

impact on the socio-economic conditions of the surrounding as most of the work force

employed will be from the nearby areas. Local persons will be hired for meeting the

requirement of trucks loading, plantation, construction of check dams, retaining walls

etc.

The benefits due to Quarry to the local population will be in the form of Direct and

indirect employment opportunities.



6. PROPOSED INFRASTRUCTURE

The extent of lease area 1.052 Ha of Govt. Gomala land is recommended for grant

and is under process at the Department of Mines & Geology. The proposed method of

Quarry operation will be semi mechanized method of opencast Quarry with jack

hammer drilling & blasting with tipper/tractors for internal transport. The lease area

does not have any public roads; railways lines, telephone lines, public buildings etc.

Present infrastructure will meet the requirement of the project. The conditions of the

roads in the buffer zone are unlikely to be impacted due to the proposed medium

scale expansion. The project authorities in association with the adjacent quarry

owners & district administration will also contribute to development & maintenance of

roads.

Social Infrastructure

The quarry lease area is easily accessible in all seasonal conditions. The quarry lease

area is about 35 kms from Bangaluru via Mysuru road–Ramohalli Cross-

Doddaladamar-Quarry site/Sulivara. The Quarry location is 15 km from Ramohalli

Cross of which has a motorable road. The nearest railway station is Kengeri about 20

kms situated on Mysuru-Bangaluru-broad-gauge line and the nearest Air Port is

Kempe Gowda international Airport Devanahalli (Bangalore) about 65kms and Harbor

is Mangalore which is about 350kms.

Drinking Water Management

There are no Water courses within or adjacent to the quarry lease and hence there is

no possibility of disturbance & rainwater will continue to flow in the same direction as

it is in existence. Since the water is not withdrawn (from any sources outside the

lease area) for Quarry purposes for quarrying operations no adverse impact is

foreseen on the existing water regime. The rainwater stored in the pits shall be

utilized for mitigating dust and other activities.

The surface water in the buffer zone is in the form of seasonal rainfall and the ground

water bodies encountered below 200-210 m depth in the area from the surface level.

The area is small, so, far no report on hydrological studies has been carried out in the

area under question. There is no potential of acid mine drainage. The drinking water

available for nearby bore wells and water can be stored in to syntax tanks. During the

course of Quarry operation no diversion of water course is considered as it doesn’t

exists.



Sewerage System

The existing watercourses shall not be disturbed and rain water will continue to flow

in the same direction. Check dams have been constructed in the nallahs of the buffer

zone and retaining walls constructed by the side of the O.B Dumps, water will

percolate in the premises of the quarry area. There is no generation of domestic

sewage.

Industrial Waste management

There is no generation of affluent/toxic substance; hence treatment of quarry water

doesn’t arise.

Solid waste management

There is little top-soil of about 9,384 tons in the Quarry area proposed. As such there

is no generation of waste, whatever little is produced may be of low grade Building

Stone/M-Sand and intercalated waste to the tune of 2%, which is proposed to be

dumped and some portion of material is used to maintain road & bund around the

lease area. No toxic or hazardous elements are reported in the waste & hence, no

effect on the surface/ground water.

Power requirement and Supply

There will not be any requirement of power supply to the project site. The Quarry

activities are envisaged to be carried out only during day time for drilling, loading,

unloading by excavators & with tippers for transport. & and all the equipment shall be

operated with diesel as motive power.

7. RECLAMATION & REHABILITATION

Surface Quarry will make alteration in the topography of the area by way of

excavation and surface dumps. This will lead to water pollution, silting of agricultural

lands; air pollution etc if proper care is not taken. The primary objectives of

reclamation are to restore the affected area to the original state as near as possible.

The various reclamation proposals planned during the plan period as well, rest of the

Quarry period such as broad working benches with safe angle of slope, installation of

effective drainage system, prevention of erosion and excessive run off, & re-

vegetation or afforestation.

As far as Quarry area is concerned, so far none of the proposed Quarry area is

matured or completely exhausted as this is a new lease in the process of grant.

Hence, the measures like Retention walls, drainage system and afforestation works

etc., shall be taken up.

ENVIRONEMNTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN

PREAMBLE

The Quarry Lease Area is situated over an extent of 2-24 Acres in Sulivara Village,

Bangalore South Taluk, Bangalore Urban District and Karnataka. The Quarry lease is

Govt Gomala lands.

Climate

The area has a tropical climate. The period during Jul-2015 to Sept-2015 indicate

highest temperature of 33°C during Sept and lowest temperature of 19°C during July

was recorded in this area and the rainfall recorded in this area in 2014 was about

538mm.

Temperature

This is one of the important factors deciding the dispersion of air pollutants due to

factors like lapse rate, inversion etc.

In the area, it is observed from the records that the temperature varies slightly in the

month. The daily maximum & minimum temperatures during the study period (July

2015– September 2015). The maximum and minimum temperatures during the study

period are 33 0C & 19 0C respectively.

Relative Humidity

The presence of water vapor in the atmosphere affects the amount of solar radiation

received and reflected by the earth. Water vapor serves to scatter or absorb radiation

energy, and hence humidity has a major influence on air quality.

Generally the relative humidity observed in the area is moderate. The relative

humidity data during the study period is given in Annexure-1B.

Precipitation

Precipitation serves as a cleansing agent for the atmosphere by removing particulate

matter and soluble gases in a process called “Wash Out”. The rainfall records of the

study zone have been collected during the previous years the rainfall in this area was

about 538 mm (2014).



Drainage pattern:

a) Likely depth of water table based on observations from nearby wells and water bodies is about 200 - 210m below the general ground level.

b) Working expected to be up to 808.23m RL which is above water table and no water is

expected. c) Quantity and quality of water likely to be encountered, the pumping arrangements and

places where the quarry water is finally proposed to be discharged.

No water is likely to be encountered during the course of quarrying.

Wind Speed & Direction

Wind is one of the most important modes in the distribution, transportation and

dispersion of air contaminants. The velocity of the wind determines the travel time of

particulate to a receptor and the dispersion rate of air contaminants.

Wind speed and direction are recorded by monitoring the area during the study period

and the data tabulated and furnished in 1D.

Quality of air

Quarrying operations of Building Stone/M-Sand does not involve deep hole drilling

and blasting. Use of machinery for excavation & loading of mined minerals, is a major

contributor for affecting the air quality. Loading and transport of minerals generate

some small quantities of dust, which again depend on factors such as the topography,

nature of material handled and climatological parameters like wind speed, wind

direction and stability classification of the area viz. location of buffer zone villages.

The quantum of quarrying operations is very limited (only about ROM 21,991 tonnes

maximum per annum i.e. about 74 tonnes/day) and hence there shall not be regular

fugitive emissions.

However, care will be taken to suppress dust by sprinkling water at all loading places, stack yards etc.

For this purpose, high volume air samplers (HVS) were used for monitoring the air

pollutants. The air is sucked at the rate of 1.1 to 1.4cu.mtrs/min for suspended

particulate matter. The samples of air were drawn at the flowing rate of 1.1 to 1.4

liters per minute for absorbing gaseous pollutants. The SPM is detected by gravimetric

method; the NOx and SO2 are estimated by using a spectrophotometer. It may be

seen from the data that the three parameters of SPM, SOx and NOx are well within

the permissible limits of Industrial/mixed use and rural areas as per CPCB norms.

The maximum value of RSPM in the core zone, 25– 31 µg/m3 is found to be within the

limits (Annexure 2). Fall in the SPM content in the atmosphere is due to the presence

of humidity and also due to the fall in the wind speed. SPM content of the air also

depend on the activities that were going on during the study period. Also, it is noted

to be observed that the various parameters show decreasing tendency from the

quarrying area towards the peripheral regions and become considerably low at the

habitations, thus indicating the dissipation of the constituents with no effect on the

villages/settlements nearby.

Quality of Water

There will not be any change in Quality of water due to Building Stone/M-Sand

quarrying, which is located at higher levels than the ground water table. The surface

rain water flow through the seasonal water course as usual.

a) Surface water: There are a couple of small nallahs existing northern side of

the quarry lease, which are of seasonal nature. Precautions

will have to be taken to avoid the wash- off from the quarry

to nearby nallahs by construction of Check dams & retaining

walls/safety bund.



b) Ground water: Ground water is unlikely to be encountered during the

proposed period of working this quarry. So any change in

the ground water condition is ruled out.

Noise level

The noise level of the core & buffer zone is expected to be within the permissible

limits. Quarrying activity is likely to increase the noise levels at the loading points and

jack hammer drilling/cutting locations. However since the workers will not be

expected to be exposed to high levels of noise for considerable period of time, no

extra precaution is proposed. The workers shall be provided with ear plugs & nose

masks. The noise levels were found to be 47.3-76.7 dBs (there was no quarrying

operations as it is applied area- Annexure 4).

The noise of excavator, compressors & Jackhammer drilling will be minimized to

permissible limits (85-105 dB) by operating equipment at different place and by

carrying periodical maintenance regularly to the machinery.

Quality of Soil

As the quarrying is confined to the slopes of the hills in the quarry, and the topsoil on

the is less than 1.0-2.0m in thickness that too in small patches, it shall be utilized for

afforestation all along the safety zone after formation of a safety bund. Whatever

available the topsoil seen in the area will be carefully taken out for afforestation

purpose. Soil is one of the most important ecological factors and plants depend for

their nutrients, water supply and anchorage upon the soil. To know the existing

quality of soil, representative soil sample has been collected from the lease area and

from the nearby village, tested for their physical and chemical properties and is given

in Annexure-5.

The physicochemical analysis of the soil indicates that the soil texture is sandy loam.

The pH of the soil sample showed values greater than 7.48 sampling sites indicating

the soil type to be alkaline in nature and the organic solids concentrations is 00.87 %

in Quarry lease area. The NPK values of the agricultural samples showed good

potential towards fertility.



Land Environment

Existing land use:

The Quarry lease area of 2-24 acres is Govt Gomala land, the area situated far away

from the Quarrying area comprises only dry lands. Open scrub mark the general

topography of the area. The major activity in the buffer zone of 5 km radius from

quarry lease is dry and whatever agriculture activity takes place is entirely dependent

on rains. The crop includes Jowar, Millet, Sunflower and Maize. Some coconut

plantains are also seen. The buffer zone has one quarry towards Eastern side owned

by L & T.

Eco System

Due to rocky exposures on the surface of the area, except for shrubs-bushes, there is

no other vegetation in the lease area. The buffer zone outside consists of forests,

agricultural lands etc., There is no wild life in around close by vicinity of the area.

Amenities:

Education: The villages in the buffer zone have primary educational facilities and

higher education & technical courses are available at Kengeri about 20kms from the

Quarry lease.

Medical: Kengeri offer good medical facilities and most of the villages in the buffer

zone have primary health centers.

Electricity: All the villages in the buffer zone are serviced by KPTCL. Electricity is

available for domestic as well as agricultural purposes.

Water: All the villages have bore wells fitted with hand pumps and open wells to

meet the domestic water requirements. In some of the villages public water supply is

also available.

Socio-economic

Surrounding the lease area (5 kms radius), 36 villages exist. The nearest village is

Sulivara about 1.24 kms from the Quarry lease. Others details are given below:

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTIVE MEASURES

Air Environment:

The sources of air pollution in the region will be due to quarrying and the related

transportation activities. The meteorology of the area becomes an important

parameter in environmental issues in the quarrying settlements. Suitable measures to

protect the inhabitants and environment against the dust and fumes emanating from

vehicular movements are required to be taken.

The dust generated is from the quarry haul roads and drilling/loading sites. It is

proposed to take up mitigative measures in the form of sprinkling water in the

sensitive areas and also create green belt along lease boundary to act as a dust

barrier. The gaseous pollutants namely SOx & NOx are below detection level.

As stated earlier the gaseous pollutants in and around the quarry are well within the

permissible limits There is no likelihood of the concentrations exceeding the standards

as the dust emanating from the drilling shall be controlled by adopting wet drilling.

There is no other factory or beneficiation unit within the lease area. However, air

quality parameters will be monitored as per the requirement.



Dust Control:

The dust generated from loading and transport operations will be controlled by water

spraying for these purposes water tanker fitted with sprayer will be used at haul road,

etc. Sprinkling water on the roads by tanker will be practiced.

The water tankers to be deployed for dust suppression. The required water will be

drawn from bore well of the applicant or purchased through water tankers. The water

availability is adequate & the applicant will provide structures for ground water

recharging in their field to replenish the aquifer. The number of trips of tankers

supplied to the Quarry measures the quantity of water supplied. The numbers of trips

are recorded in a logbook every day, which will be duly certified by the in-charge so

as to have control on the trips of water utilization.

Further the green belt of 7.5 mtrs proposed all round the Quarry lease boundary will

act as a dust filter and arrest the spread of air borne dust on to the nearby

agricultural lands and villages. The office complex is also suggested to be surrounded

by green belt, to arrest the spread of dust to the other locations.

Noise environment

The haulage vehicles shall be maintained with proper lubrication, fitting of effective

silencers and maintenance to reduce the noise. Workers are provided with earplugs to

avoid the noise from the machineries.

The proposed green belt in 3 rows around the lease area will help in reducing the

noise level.

Water environment:

It is proposed to use water for sprinkling over the roads for suppression of dust

during summer. Analyses of water sample is collected from near by Bore well is well

within the CPCB limits.

The major source of water pollution in open cast quarrying is the surface run-off

carrying the fine silt. The problem is prevalent mostly in rainy season. For this control

measures by way of providing check-dams along the course of nallas outside the lease

area will be initiated and will be strengthened further and the applicant will also take

up erection of retention walls along the safety zone & take up afforestation on the

side of these retention walls to minimize the flow of silt. Drains should be constructed

to channelize the water in loose soil areas to prevent erosion.



Storm Water Management:

Check dams will be constructed to contain the surface run-off of the silt and

sediments from the lease area during heavy rainy season. Garland drain around the

quarry will be made to divert the water from working areas.

Land Environment

The Dhanbad declaration on Environmental Management in Mining/Quarrying Industry

states “It is imperative that in order to ensure the continued and sustained progress

of the Quarrying industry in India, the environmental dimensions should be integrated

into the planning, design, development, operation and working practices of quarry on

scientific and rational lines, by the Governments and the industry in a mutually

reinforcing manner”. The land related Environmental Management Plan (EMP) has

been presented here under two sections viz., Soil & Water conservation and

Afforestation.

Storage and Reuse of Top Soil:

Topsoil if any removed during clearing of the area for Building Stone/M-Sand

extraction shall be stacked separately to check the erosion of the stacked soil. A

retaining wall shall be constructed all around the dump toe/topsoil stockyard. Planting

of grass and local species etc., are proposed on the surface of this stack to prevent

erosion and to increase the soil nitrogen. As per the analysis of the soil samples they

are found to be basic in nature. During afforestation, it is recommended to plant fast

growing species with good canopy cover and dense leaf density and some ornamental

species to give a good aesthetic look. It is recommended to sow neem, mahogany

plants as soil and climatic conditions are suitable for the growth of these plants.

Land Restoration/Reclamation:

Land restoration or reclamation of the area is very essential in any Quarrying industry.

Proper measures adopted during restoration will control most of the adverse

environmental impacts of Quarry and also improve the aesthetic beauty of the area.

Due to the Quarry activities in this area the profile of the ground will change due to

formation of pits. At the end of the Quarry operations, the top soil/mineral rejects will

be utilized for back filling wherever suitable and rehabilitated. Also, based on the final

configuration of the pits, the Company shall convert part of the lease area into a

reservoir which helps in storage of water & also helps in re-charging of the ground

water table. Necessary precautionary safety measures shall also be taken up by the

applicant during the closure stage to ensure safety & future use for the local



community. The entire periphery of the pit shall be fenced & suitable sloped so as to

ensure that there is no danger to the local habitat.

Following steps shall be taken for improving and protecting the environment.

a) Quarry lease area

b) Surrounding the Quarry lease area.

c) Surrounding the statutory buildings

d) On the undisturbed virgin lease area.

Surrounding the Mining area

The dust generated during the quarrying operations will be carried by wind and will be

deposited over the trees and on the adjacent area around the quarry in the buffer

zone. To filter this dust, a green belt shall be developed along the quarry lease area

i.e., around ultimate pit limit in the non mineralized area, this green belt will also act

as sound barrier. In between the tree saplings, grass and bushes shall be grown.

Creation of the green belt around the lease areas shall be undertaken on priority basis

and shall be completed concurrent to Quarry over a 5-year period. Avenue Plantation

all along the haul roads shall also be taken up as per the afforestation Plan. About

2,500 saplings will be planted during the Plan period.

Surrounding the statutory buildings

All around the proposed statutory buildings and along the road sides trees shall be

planted in addition to the existing ones which will protect the workers from the noise

and dust. To plant trees around the statutory buildings, the topsoil that is going to be

quarrying from the area shall be laid to form a strip of 10-15m width and 0.5m

thickness.

On the undisturbed virgin lease area:

The undisturbed virgin lease area shall be utilized for afforestation purposes by

developing the area with local varieties. This work shall be done after the cessation of

Quarry operations.

Afforestation Programme:

The afforestation to be taken up provides the requisite floral biodiversity. At the end

of the Plan period non rocky area if any will be afforested and wherever possible and

along roadsides afforestation will be proposed of area is earmarked for afforestation

during the proposed plan period. Details of the afforestation program are given below:

Third 200

Fourth 200

Fifth 200

Total 1000

During the afforestation work, the combination of different species shall be done. This

selection shall be made on the basis of the local plant growth in the surrounding

areas. It is always better to plant mixed species together. Guidance from the local

forest department shall be taken in the selection of species and their maintenance.

The plantation work requires considerable quantities of seeds, seedlings and saplings

of different species; Nursery stock for this plantation will be available from the local

forest and horticulture department.

The area, which is afforested, will be protected from animal grazing. For this,

watchmen shall be employed to look after the plants and trees. Due care also shall be

taken to protect the afforested area from pests and fires. Plants and trees will be

provided fertilizers and other manures regularly as per the expert advice.

Provision of Green Belt along the affected area:

It is proposed to develop a green belt along roadside, near proposed office premise of

the portion of the lease around the working spots and the places around the roads in

the lease area and outside. About 2,500 saplings per hectare of area in 2-3 rows with

a spacing of 2.5 m x 2.5 m shall be developed. The saplings shall have deep roots,

fast growth and optimum penetrability. To stand firmly against the wind, species of

plants which form dense vegetation and maximum canopy shall be selected otherwise

the gap in the canopy will act as wind tunnels. Dense vegetation will litter on the floor

and improve the quality of the soil, and also act as dust and sound barriers. It is also

taken into consideration that the different species of plant include flower bearing, fruit

bearing plants and also plants forming food for herbivous animals to attract the wild

life.

Applicam



Out of the above trees, the Neem stands excellent for dust filtering, based on its

height, quick growth, leaf density and drought tolerance. This will be able to filter the

dust by 80%.

Drainage Control and Hydrologic Balance:

To prevent the precipitated water entering into the working quarries though surface

drainage and runoff water containing some silt, the following measures shall be

adopted.

In respect of hydrological balance, as the mine workings are well above the ground

water table, there will not be any tapping of ground water table during the quarry

operations. The quality of the pumped out water is well within the rechargeable limits

of the ground water table of this area. Further, the proposed afforestation programme

will increase the rate of recharging ground water in this area.

Treatment of Drainage Water:

As indicated in the earlier paras, the precipitated run-off water contains only solid

suspensions, which are non-toxic. These suspended solid matters have to be removed

before the water is allowed to enter into the surface watercourses. The main source

of solid suspended matter is from the working area. To control the solid suspensions

carried along with run off, retaining walls shall be constructed. One Check dam shall

be constructed along the seasonal nallahs as shown on the Environmental Plan to

arrest the silt flowing along with water at downstream sides of the quarry.

Treatment of Drinking Water:

The water sample collected from the nearby bore well used for drinking by the

villagers and employees is analyzed and found to be potable. Hence, no further

treatment of drinking water is required and proposed.

Control on Soil Erosion:

The only source of soil erosion is from top soil safety bund all along the lease

boundary. Since there is no solid waste/overburden for dumping separately, there will

not be any effect and hence chances of soil erosion are negligible.

Control on fall of Fly Rocks and Scree:

As described in the impact assessment chapter no fly rocks are generated. Controlled

blasting technique by use of delay detonators shall be used for minimizing ground

vibrations & noise. Hydraulic rock breakers are proposed to be utilized for reducing

the frequency of blasting. Quarry operation will not generate any scree.



After practicing control measures like afforestation of worked out area and the dumps,

mechanical erosion control measure such as terracing, construction of retaining wall

etc., there is least possibility of scree in the form of suspended particle in the drained

water to accumulate at down slopes and choking the drainage system. To check the

silt or scree flowing into the natural nallah, one check dams shall be constructed

across the nallah towards down streamside of the Quarry.

Wild Life Protection:

Presently, there are no wild animals spotted in the buffer zone. However, the practice

of afforestation programme and other control measures shall bring greenery to the

area and also the vegetation of mixed species and availability of water will form a

natural habitat for these wild animals and helps in conservation of the flora and fauna

of the area. The applicant shall co-ordinate with the forest department in protection

and taking up mitigative measures required if any in this regard.

Management of Socio Economic Fabric:

As already explained in the earlier paras the quarrying industry will improve the

economic status of the people and area. Continued Quarrying activities, will benefit

the local people due to provision of more infrastructural facilities provided by the

quarrying industry, as quarrying industry boosts up the local market, which will invite

people from different places to install their ancillary units. Thus the population density

may have some effect over traditional life style of the local people, and it may create

scarcity of the essential commodities thus creating rise in prices. Adequate facility for

drinking water, health, education, recreation and employment is provided to the

workers and shall be continued. A sum of Rs. 50,000 shall be utilized per annum for

CSR activities for the surrounding villages.

Disaster Management Plan:

Disaster Management Plan is envisaged with a goal to prevent hazards and accidents

at work places by careful design, operation, maintenance and inspection of the

quarrying machineries & equipments. All the quarry activities will be in accordance

with the Quarrying Plan and directives of Directorate General of Mines Safety. All the

eligible employees will be sent to refresher courses from time to time on safety issues.

The control measures will be adopted to take care of hazards/disasters that may occur

during quarry operation.



Safety awareness through competitions, posters & organizing safety weeks every year

Fire fighting & first aid provisions will be provided in quarry office & quarry lease area.

All safety appliances to make available to all the staff. Proper maintenance of haulage roads

Manpower and Organization:

The project proponent will set up a permanent cell with the task of effective

implementation of Environmental Management Plan & co-ordinate with the

management & external environmental consultants. Manpower required for regular

supervision of different works connected for the control measures suggested in the

earlier chapters and also monitoring of environmental data on a periodical basis, the

following personnel shall be employed. About 31 people will be benefitted by way of

direct & 50 indirect employment in the quarry activities. All necessary benefits &

facilities in accordance with rules shall be provided.

CONCLUSIONS, SUGGESTIONS/RECOMMENDATIONS

The Quarrying method proposed as per the Quarrying Plan submitted to Dept. of

Mines & Geology is small-scale Semi mechanized Quarrying activities without

deployment of deep hole drilling and use of Heavy machinery. The actual method of

quarrying Building Stone/M-Sand is by small scale jack hammer drilling & blasting.

Based on the appraisal of the existing environmental scenario coupled with the

assessment studies carried out, it is concluded that there is no long term

environmental impact due to the Building Stone/M-Sand quarry at the lease area.

The suspended particulate matter getting airborne from the quarrying activity gets

dispersed in close proximity itself and settles down early. The noise levels due to the

proposed quarry activity are also not of a higher order that calls for immediate

corrective measures. The ground water analysis indicates that the sources do not get

influx of pollutants from the quarry activity. There is positive socio-economic front in

the surrounding region due to the proposed quarrying industry. The practice of

afforestation scheme is a step in the right direction towards achieving ecological

balance.



Suggestions/Recommendations

Even though there is no perceptible impact from the quarry activity on the

environment of the region, it is imperative that mitigative measures have got to be

implemented on full scale for creating environmental balance and intern maintain the

ecology of the region. The following suggestions/recommendations merit due

consideration in this regard

As no control over wind can be exercised, the frequency of the dust

suppression measures like constant watering of the haul roads shall be

practiced.

Afforestation as envisaged in the mining plan is to be carried out so that it

not only enhances the green canopy but also stop the spread of dust

particles and air borne pollutants.

Surface water conservation measures and groundwater recharge be given

high priority.
