3. iii. Basis of Site Selection
The site for mining lease was selected keeping in view the following considerations:
1. The lease area is situated well within the meandering corridor of Giri River. 2. No mining zone is defined after considering the 50 meter safe distance from the road and 1/10 of width from the i.e HFL that is 60 to 65 meters, depending upon the width which varies from 600 to 650 meter. This part of river is more of Fan area being near the confluence with Yamuna River. 3. The workability is suggested by keeping in the mind possible effect on the meandering of River. The mining on the concave bank is most suitable mining and convex bank is most unsuitable. Hence year wise mining is suggested in a way that it will get replenish during next season. 4. Because river is perennial hence mining will not be possible in all area, moreover JCB is not allowed hence it will not be possible to mine in a continuous patch/block and to mine area up to its full capacity /mine-ability. Hence only in some part of the area suggested for year wise mining is possible. 5. One meter from the surface is considered for calculation of the reserve. 6. The factor of 2cm annual replenishment is taken into consideration, while calculating the reserve.
3 iv Description of River/Stream Bed in which the lease is situated
The lease is situated in the River Giri, a primary tributary of the River Yamuna. The Giri River originates Near Kharapathar in jubbal Tehsil of District Shimla at a height of about 3270 meter.
Because a barrage is constructed on it at Jataun near Dadadu. The Giri catchment drainage about 2600 sq km of Himalayan mountains ranges, lies between 300-4 30 to 310-15 60 North latitude
0 0 and 77 -0 -0 to 77 -43 45 East longitude and is divided into 36 sub catchments, generally forming drainage network of tributaries. Its water have been diverted putting a barrage at Dadahu to generate power at Girinagar and provide irrigation in and around Paonta valley.
Total catchment area of effective part = Approx 270 sq km

Applicant:-Mr. Sanjay Kishore
Total length in the effective area = Approx 34 km
3. v. Magnitude of Operation
The size or amount of production of material from the lease area will depend upon following factors:-
The basic requirement of the lessee is to mine Sand, Stone & Bajri from area under reference. The extracted stone shall be used in the stone crushers (under construction) for captive use. The highest point of leased out area is 420 meters above mean sea level. The lowest point of the leased out area is 418 meters above mean sea level. Altitude at origin is 3270 mts above MSL. Width of river at the place of mining is about 230 metres to 270 metres. The lease area being about two km upstream of the confluence of Giri River with Yamuna, the width in the area is more of effective fan of Giri. The mining will be undertaken as per the approved Working cum Environment
Management Plan . The major mining activity will be undertaken during the dry seasons only. The annual deposition at the mining lease area is one to three cms depending upon the location. At some places it may be more than the three cm. The general competency at the mining area is six to ten kg approx. The larger boulder vary 9 to 14cm x 8 to 12cm x 7 to 12cm (length x breath x height). During monsoon floods the water level rises by about two meters, at times for short spells.
3. vi Method of Mining
The mining/collection of minerals shall involve shovelling by simple hand tool and loading into trucks/ tractors-trailers for transporting them to crusher site. JCB is NOT allowed hence mining will not be possible to mine in a continuous patch/block and to mine area up to its full capacity/mine ability. No blasting shall be resorted. The lease area having gentle slope with gradient of 1 :40, tracks for the movement of trucks and tractors can be made and maintained in any part of the lease area.

Mined out area of pre-monsoon will be completely filled with mineral during monsoon. Hence, it is assumed that entire pit will be filled during monsoon. However the gap of one year is allowed for rehabilitation. The area on rotation basis is suggested in such a way that pit of previous year mining will act as depository for the post monsoon season. The workability is suggested by keeping in the mind possible effect on the meandering of khad if mining is done on the left bank. The previous year pit will reduce the velocity of the khad and thus reducing its carrying capacity thus depositing all the mineral being transported by the tributary. In totality the principal of the placer deposit is adopted.

Banking facilities and hospital facilities are available at tehsil Paonta Sahib about 10 km from mining area.
5. Planning Brief
5.i. Planning Concept
The project falls under the category of Mining Industry . The raw material that is stones, bajri and sand
are available in the area granted for mining purposes under the Himachal Pradesh Minor Minerals Concessions (Revised) Rules 1971 . The required unskilled and semiskilled workers are locally available. For transportation of minerals/material tipper trucks will be deployed. These are readily available from the adjoining villages on hire. The area has not been, so far, classified for any specific activity by the State Country and Town Planning Department . However the Revenue Department has
classified it under category of Gair Mumkin Nadi i.e. uncultivable river Stream .
5.ii. Population Projection
The requirement of unskilled and semi-skilled workers for the mining and transportation of minerals to market and crushing site will be limited to about 10. The workers directly engaged for mining activity will be deployed for dislodging the rocks and loading stones into tipper trucks. Nitiall only one tipper truck will be engaged daily as per demand for transporting material from the mining area to crushing unit. It is pertinent to mention that percentage of marginal workers in the district is 18.21 percent and 47.37percent are non-workers as per 2011 census. Thus the project gives fruitful employment to local workers and help in stemming or at least reducing the migration of such workers to urban centre from the adjoining villages.

Applicant:-Mr. Sanjay Kishore
5.iii. Land use Planning
The mining area during the rainy season remains under flowing water and endure frequent floods, cannot be fragmentized for green belt etc. The entire block of leased land falling in river, excluding the safety zone along the banks, will be used for mining activities during the dry season.
5. iv. Assessment of Infrastructure Demand
Considering 270 working days in a year about 181 metric tons of minerals will be moved daily depending upon market demand. The transportation of this material will not put any load on the existing road or other local infrastructure as the crusher is in the adjoining land.
5. v. Amenities
In view of the fact that the project is a small mine it will not need much specialized facilities in the mining area. However, following site services will be provided near the mine but outside the flood zone:
Mine Office. Rest Shelter. Latrine/Urinal. First aid station. Store for mining equipment.
6. Proposed Infrastructure
As the project will be enlisting local workers for the mining as well as for transportation of minerals, therefore no infrastructure for their residential purposes is needed. As about 41 tipper trucks will be engaged in the transportation of minerals for which existing haul road will utilized. The drinking water supply to the workers will be provided by digging bore well at mine site. The latrine / urinal with the mine rest shelter shall be provided.
