Puram, Ramamurthy Nagar, NRI Layout, Horamavu, etc., are located within a radius of 5km from the Project Site. Environment Clearance Page | 4 Assetz Titan APG Abode Homes Pvt. Ltd. Fig: 500m Radius Google Image 1.2. List out all the major project requirements in terms of the land area, built up area, water consumption, power requirement, connectivity, community facilities, parking needs etc. The major items are listed as below: Sl. No. Particulates Details 1 Total Site Area 4 Acres 7 Guntas (16,896Sq.m) 2. Built-up Area 59,240 Sq.m 3. Water Demand 263KLD 4. Power Demand 2294KW 5. Connectivity Old Madras Road / NH4 - 0.5km, Outer Ring Road - 5km, Budigere Environment Clearance Page | 5 Assetz Titan APG Abode Homes Pvt. Ltd. Junction - 6.5km, CBD –205km, Airport – 40km Club House, Gym, Round the clock Security, Energy Efficient 6. Community Facility Building, Back-up Power Supply, Water Treatment Plant, Play Area, Party Hall, etc., 7. Parking Proposed 444 Car Parks 1.3. What are the likely impacts of the proposed activity on the existing facilities adjacent to the proposed site? (Such as open spaces, community facilities, details of the existing land-use, disturbance to the local ecology). The site is devoid of rare vegetation and is vacant land. About 113 Teak Trees, 7 Neem Trees, 4 Honge and 8 Eucalyptus Trees exist mostly along the periphery of the project site. The trees coming into the building footprint shall be cut or transplanted after assessing the age of the tree and its economic feasibility. The close vicinity of the project site includes, few well developed residential and commercial buildings, Schools, Colleges, places of worship, etc. The project activity will have some impact during its construction phase mainly due to noise and dust emissions, movement of construction materials, etc. However, due to planned development and diligent implementation of proposed Environment Management Plan and Best Construction practices this effect shall be minimal. 1.4. Will there be any significant land disturbance resulting in erosion, subsidence & instability? (Details of soil type, slope analysis, vulnerability to subsidence, seismicity etc may be given). To understand the load bearing capacity of the soil, its type, slope, etc., project proponent carried out a detailed soil exploration at the project site. Soil Profile: The top soil of 1.0 M is non-uniform. The underlying layer is laterite upto 2.0 to 4.5M followed by disintegrated rocks. Small patches of the project site consist of Hard Road. No water table was met within the boreholes at the time of exploration. However, perched water table is likely to occur during rainy season. Environment Clearance Page | 6 Assetz Titan APG Abode Homes Pvt. Ltd. Further, Storm water management is scientifically designed during and after construction. Sophisticated landscaping will further improve water holding capacity & minimize soil erosion. The topography of the proposed Residential development site is generally plain and open land. The site is devoid of rare vegetation of any description. The contour map is enclosed for the proposed project site. Slope of about 2.5m exist in South - North direction over a distance of 150m. The project area falls in Zone - II of Seismic Zoning map of India. The seismic factors have been appropriately incorporated in the civil designs for the proposed project. Fig: Contour Map Environment Clearance Page | 7 Assetz Titan APG Abode Homes Pvt. Ltd. 1.5. Will the proposal involve alteration of natural drainage systems? (Give details on a contour map showing the natural drainage near the proposed project site) The contour map is enclosed for the proposed project site. Slope of about 2.5m exist in North - South. The natural gradient at the project site shall be respected and same will be maintained unaltered after completion of construction of the Project. 1.6. What are the quantities of earthwork involved in the construction activity-cutting, filling, reclamation etc. (Give details of the quantities of earthwork involved, transport of fill materials from outside the site etc.) The proposed project consists of multi-storied buildings comprising of 1 Basement + Ground Floor + 14 Upper Floors + Terrace Floor. Excavation will be for providing basement, footings, sump tanks etc. and excavated earth will be used for backfilling, leveling of earth, internal roads, etc. After scientific assessment of the project site, it is estimated that about 17,500cum of earth shall be excavated using latest hi-tech earth moving machinery. Top earth of about 2,550cum shall be stored and used for landscaping. Remaining 14,950cum excavated soil shall be used for backfilling and leveling. The project proponent has reduced the excavation by making use of the available slope of 2.5m. 1.7. Give details regarding water supply, waste handling etc., during the construction period. 250 laborers will be employed for carrying out construction related work. The maximum amount of waste generated during construction will be around 20KLD. Wastewater generated from the temporary bathrooms and toilets will be partially treated in temporarily provided septic tank and the overflow will be discharged into BWSSB UGD available along T C Palya Main Road. The water will be drawn from local agencies at the time of construction. During construction stage, proper storm water flow arrangement is proposed. Only STP treated water will be used for construction purpose (viz., Curing, Concrete mixing, water sprinkling for dust suppression, etc.) Environment Clearance Page | 8 Assetz Titan APG Abode Homes Pvt. Ltd. 1.8. Will the low lying areas & wetlands get altered? (Provide details of how low lying and wetlands are getting modified from the proposed activity) The low lying areas and wetlands will not be affected or altered due to the proposed construction of the project. 1.9. Whether construction debris & waste during construction cause health hazard? (Give quantities of various types of wastes generated during construction including the construction labor and the means of disposal) Generation of construction debris and waste will slightly increase noise levels and dust concentration inside the site. However, the project authorities have proposed to provide face masks, ear plugs, gloves and other personal protective equipment’s to prevent accidents or incidents during construction activities. Water spray facility will be provided on temporary driveways to control dust emissions generated due to vehicular movement. Construction and demolition waste shall be bare minimum due to the use of Aluminum Shuttering or framework. Plastering too shall not be required for finishing works. However, below calculation is for worst-case scenario as per the Construction and Demolition Waste Handling Rules guidelines published by BBMP.
