(i) Activity

1. Construction, operation or decommissioning of the Project involving actions. which will cause physical changes in the locality (topography.) land use, changes in water bodies, etc. S.No. Information/Checklist confirmation Yes/No Details there of (with approximate quantities /rates. wherever possible) with source of information data 1.1 Permanent or temporary change in Yes Land USE :- land use, land cover or topography The land use classification as per including increase in intensity of land revenue records is Private land. use (with respect to local land use The mining activity is having plan) localized impact and create physical change in the existing environment due to the change in the existing land use. At the end of life of mine, the programme would be as per approved progressive mine closure plan. The backfilled area would be used for plantation or farming purpose and rest would be used as a water reservoir Land Cover :- Presently, five year plan is completed and in approved mining plan the soil cover was considered as overburden and 10% of ROM which is claysh material was considered as waste. It was observed that during the mining plan period, the OB and waste generated during plan period was backfilled. According approved mining plan it was proposed to reclaim area by backfilling. Lessee has not reclaimed the area the area by backfilling. Because bauxite is present at pit floor.

Topography :- Topographically the lease area comprises of flat terrain, gently sloping towards north to south with highest elevation 121 MSL and lowest elevation is 108 MSL.

4 Water Bodies :- There is no water body and drainage passing through the lease area. Seasonal stream pass through the lease area in which water flows through natural gradient only during rainy season. Dadh dam is reservoir and is about 3.05 km away from project area.

Vegetation :- There is no vegetation present at project site. However few trees are situated at the periphery of the mining lease area. The vegetation around the periphery of the mining lease area is shown in photograph is as under.

5 1.2 Clearance of existing land, vegetation No As the area is devoid of any and buildings ? significant vegetation, clearing of vegetation is not required for mining activity. There are no buildings existing in the working area. 1.3 Creation of new land uses ? No N.A. 1.4 Pre-construction investigations e.g. No Exploration was proposed to put bore houses. soil testing ? four trial pits during plan, lessee has put all trial pits and bauxite is present in the area. 1.5 Construction works ?

No N.A. 1.13 Production and manufacturing Yes In the approved mining plan the processes ? 1.50 m thick soil was considered and besides this 10% of ROM, which is clayish material, was considered as waste. It was observed that during the mining plan period. The waste generated during plan period was backfilled and soil was spared on it. The method of mining is almost the same as followed in other

6 bauxite mines. With the nature of deposit bauxite horizon is present below thin cover of soil. The bauxite zone having thickness of 5.00 m. Earlier mining work has been done in the lease area by manual open cast mining method by forming two benches. One for soil and another for bauxite mineral and by engaging manual workers. Soil is removed first and then bauxite is excavated. Bauxite horizon is compact in nature and required the Hammer and Excavator will be used instead of Drilling and Blasting. The proposed production of next 5 years is as is per approved mining plan is 89085 MTPA. Five year of mining production is 80177 MT of total waste / soil / overburden, 8458 MT. The salient features of proposed five year mining method are :-  The height of the bench will be maintained at 1 m - 3 m.  The mining will be done from top to bottom.  Workings will be confined between 108 MSL to 130 MSL in conceptual phase.  Considering the stability of rocks the final slope or say ultimate pit slope is proposed 450 from vertical.  Small blasting with low charge of holes is proposed to loosen the rocks.  Haul road is developed up to point of loading.  Transportation of the mineral from pit-mouth to destination is being done by hired trucks. Facilities for storage of goods or materials will be provided within lease area. The overburden will be removed and dumped on the non-working zone. It will be adequately stacked with benches/ terraces. At the end of the mine life the over burden wastes will be used to backfill the part of the pit and the other part will be developed as water reservoir. The excavated mineral will be dressed and sold in due market. 1.14 Facilities for storage of goods or Yes Facilities for storage of goods or materials ? materials is provided within lease area. This is a small mine less

The domestic water demand is from the existing open well situated outside the lease area in the nearby farm through tanker supply. Water stored in the pit during the rainy season is being used in plantation and dust suppression. There is no water abstraction within lease area. Mine workings is not intersecting the ground water table. Ultimate depth of pit will be 99 MSL. The level of ground water table is 20 m (in rainy season) to 25 m (in dry season). Thus, ground water table will not be encountered during working in the mine. 1.24 Changes in water bodies or the land Yes Presently, there is no water body surface affecting drainage or run-off? and drainage passing through the
