I A 1. INTRODUCTION

The 2l't century is the age of Development, development of Science, Technology and Infrastructure. All these ultimately result to the development of mankind and its standard of living' Taking about infrastructure, ,-\ it cannot materialize without minerals found on the earth,s Crust' However, using this valuable mineral wealth in a sustainable manner is the key long term positive development. Unfortunately, that's not the case. Many minerals, especially minor A minerals like (basalt) rock and sand are exploited in an unregulated way since past decade. This leads rapid A to exhaustion of essential raw mineral wealth and destruction of environment. Finally, in2013, Maharashtra Minor Mineral Extraction (Development and Regulation) Rules 2013 came into existence. 1 As per Gazette notification of l5th Jantary 2016 of Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change a Survey shall be carried out A by the District Environment Impact Assessment Authority (DEIAA) with assistance of irrigation department, A Drainage department, Forest department, Mining department and Revenue department in A the district for preparation of District Survey Report as per the sustainable Sand mining guidelines to ensure identification of areas of aggradations or deposition where mining can be allowed; and identification of areas of erosion A and proximity to infrastnrctural structures and installations where mining should be prohibited and calculation of annual A rate of replenishment and allowing time for replenishment after mining in that area. A Every efforts have been made to cover sand mining locations, areas & overview of Mining activity in the district with all its relevant features pertaining to geology & mineral wealth in replenish-able and non-replenish-able areas of rivers, stream and other sand sources. The mineral potential is calculated based on field investigation & geology of the ^r catchment area of the river or streams. Also as per the site conditions and locations, depth At minable of mineral is defined. The area for removal of the mineral in a river or stream is decided depending on geomorphology & other factors, it can be 50%o to 60%o of the area particular of a river or stream. Other constituents like clay and silt are excluded as waste while calculating the mineral potential particular A of river or stream. This District Survey Report shall form the basis for application for environment clearance, preparation of -{ reports and appraisal ofprojects. The report shall be updated once every five years. A

a\ GUIDELINES FOR MINING OT,MINOR MINERALS

The mining operations for minor minerals were carried out in unscientific manner in Maharashtra since there were no guidelines for extraction of minor mineral. Identifying this fact ln exercise of powers conferred by Section l5 of Mines & Minerals (Development & Regulation ) Act' 1957 (67 of 1957) and of all other powers enabling it in that behalf, the Revenue & Forest Departrnent' Govemment of Maharashtra framed the Maharashtra Minor Mineral Extraction (Development and Regulation ) Rules, 2013. The present plan Mining is submitted under rule 22 ofMCR 1960.

since prior environment clearance has now become mandatory for mining of minor minerals irrespective /q of the area of mining lease after the matter of Deepak Kumar etc. vs. state of Haryana and others as per Hon'ble Supreme court dated the 27.h February, 2012 in l.A. No'12-13 of 2011 in Special Leave Petition (c) No. 1962g- 19629 of 200g, Minisrry of Environment, Forest & climate change (MoEF & cc) had issued offrce Memorandum No.L- ll0ll/4712011-IA'II (M) dated l8th May 2012;hance forth as pet this o.M. a1 Mining proiects of minor minerals would require prior environmental clearance urespective of the lease area' Mining projects with Lease area less than 5 ,82, ha are categorized as category andprojects with lease area 5 Ha and above and less than 50 ,B, A\ ha are categorized as category whereas Projects with lease area of 50 ha and above are categorized as category,A,.

Policy on Environment clearance for mining leases in cruster for minor minerals in the Matter of sand mining was directed by the Hon'ble National Green Tribunal (NGT); vide Its orders dated the l3,h January,2Ol5.

The central Government had constituted the District Level Environment tmpact Assessment Authority (DEIAA), for grant of Environment clearance for Category,, ,,B2,, projects for mining of minor minerals, for all the districts in the country as per the latest amendment s'o' l4l (E) & s.o. 190 (E) dated l5th January 2ot6 & 20rh January 2016 in exercise of the powers conferred by sub- section (3) of Section 3 of the Environment (protection) Act' 1986 (29 of 1986) and in pursuance of the notification of the Government of rndia in the erstwhile Ministry of Environment and Forest number s.o. 1533 (E), dated the l4rh September.

Minerals are classified into two groups as Major minerals and Minor minerals. Minor Mineral have been defined ,nder section 3 (e) of Mines and Minerals (Regulation and development) Act, 1957. They include building stones, gravel, ordinary sand, limestone Lime buming, boulders, kankar, murum, brick earth ordinary clay used for, bentonite, road metal' slate, marble, stones used for making household utens,s etc. Therefore, a, othe minerals not defined as minor minerars in the said Act are treated as major minerars. They include coal, manganese ore' iron ore, bauxite, limestone, kyanite, sillimanite, barites, chromite, silica sand, fluorite, quartz, sand used for stowing purposes in coal mines and many other minerals used for industrial purposes. （

Maharashtra is the sole producer （ of corundum and is the second largest producer of manganese ore after orissa The principal mineral-bearing belts （ in Maharashtra are area in the East and area in the west. Important minerar occurrences are bauxite in （ , Raigad, , , Sindhudurg and rhane districts; china clay in , , , Nag:uq Sindhudurg and rhane districts; chromite in Bhandara, Chandrapur' and Sindhudurg districts; coal rn Nagpur, chandrapur and yavatmar distncts; dolomite in Chandrapur, Nagtur yavatrnal and districts; fireclay in Amravati, chandrapur, A Nag:ur and Ratnagiri districts; fluorite and Shale in ; iron ore (hematite) in chandrapur, and Sindhudurg districts; iron ore (magnetite) in district; kyanite in Bhandara and Nag:ur distncts; raterite in Korhap,r district; limestone in , Chandrapur, , Gadchiroli, Nagpur, , and districts; manganese ore in Bhandara, Nagpur and Ratlagiri districts; corundum, pyrophyllite and sillimanite in ; a quartz and s,ica sand in Bhandara, Gadchiroli' Gond'ia, Kolhapur, Nagpur, Ratnagiri and Sindhudurg distncts and quartzite in Gondia （ and Nagpur districts. （ Other minerals that occur in the State are barytes in Chandrapur and Gadchiroli districts; copper in Bhandara, chandrapur, （ Gadchiroli and Nagpur districts; felspar in ; gold in Bhandara 〈 and Nagpur districts; granite in Bhandra, chandrapur, Dhule. Gadchiroli, Nagpur, Nanded, Nasik, Sindhudurg and rhane districts; graphite in Sindhudurg district; read-zinc in ; marble in Bhandara and Nagpur districts; ochre and hrngsten in chandrapru and Nagpur distncts; silver and vanadium in

（ Bhandara district; steatite in Bhandara, Ratnagiri and Sindhudurg districts; and titanium minerals （ in Gondia and Rabragiri districts.

〈 considering the Geology and Geography palghar of District it is easy to say that the district has a predominant occurrence （ of Basalt which is considered as a minor minerats according to the MMDR Act 1g57. Basart is an excelrent （ Buirding stone. It is popurarly used as an aggregate in concrete and building roads as road metal, rail metal etc.in ＾ very small pockets. other than basalt minor minerar like M,rum and ordinary earth occurs in the district. Murum is ＾ used generaly as filring materiar. soil is used generally for Brick making. other major minor mineral （ is ordinary sand which is mined from dedicated spots and used popurarly in the construction.industry. （ 一 （ As of June 2019, there are 25 minng leases for exaction of minor minerals (stone, （ mrxrum, soil ) operational in parghar district . other palghar than these leases district has many （ temporary quarry pemits issued by the office of collector, Sub_ Divisionar officer and Tahsi ldar. （ ・ In case of sand Mining in , there are 2types of （ sands based on their source. i.e. I) River channel sand and 2) Creek sand./ Sea sand . （ l) The river channer sand is scarce as the rivers in palghar district as of short len6hs, they arso （ have a steep gradient which and hence inhibiting formatiorv deposition of sand in the river channel rhis sand is carried by the water to the creek （ areas where the rivers open into the sea which causes the rivers srow to down and hence depositing the entire （ sediment ,oad they carry along the way. （ 2) Palghar district has a coastline dissected by few ・ major and many mrnor creeks where the fresh （ water streams/ rivers open into the sea. This region of creeks close to １ the sea is a part of costar Regulation Zone (c R.z.) where commercial sand mining is completely barmed. But according to the govemment sand policy dat ed 2r05r20r5, sand can be excavated （ from the channel only for clearing the channer for fac,itating movefrents of boats and ships through the creeks / （ charmels Maharashtra Maritime Board(M.M.B.) is the authority which technicalry sanctions rhe area （ for excavation and qr'rantity of sand to be excavated. on receiving of proposars fiom M.M.B. ,on behalf of M.M.B. , the collector Oflice gives （ Sand excavation permits to interested persons after fulfi,ing a, the requirements. Such mining is done by 2 main methods ヽ 1) by means of Mechanicar Dredging 2) ヽ by means of manual methods rike Hatpatti/ Dubbi. （ １

^ and to the increased accumulatiOn(temporary or pe.1.lanent)offlne sediments On bO■ Oms ヘ wherc they are undesirable.SiltatiOn is lnost Often caused by sOil erosiOn or sediinent spill.

⌒ Sometimes siltatiOn is called sθ グ′″θ″′′θ〃夕″θ4. The tOtal Scdiincnt 10ad includcs all particles lnovhg as bcd10ad,suspended load,and wash 10ad ^ Bedload ^ （ Bedload is the portiOn of sedilncnt transport that rolls,slides or bounces a10ng the bottOm

of the water■ Ow is strong enough t0 0vercOme the weight and cohesiOn ofthe sediment.while

（ the particlcs are pushed along,they typically dO not rnove as fast as thc water around thenl,as the

flow rate is nOt great enOugh to nllly suspend thcm. Bcd10ad transpolt can occur du五 ng low ^ ■OWS(Smaller palticles)Or at high■ Ows(fOr larger particles).AppЮ ximatcly 5-20%Of total ⌒ sediincnt transpon is bedload . In situatiOns wherc the f10w rate is strOng enOugh,

^ somc of the smaller bedload particles can bc pushed up into thc water c01ulllm and becOme

⌒ suspcnded.

ハ Suspended Lond

⌒ Whilc therc is Oncn ovcrlap,thc suspcnded load and suspended sediment are notthe

same thing.suspendcd sedimcnt are any particles fOund in the water c0111mn,whether the water ^ is■owing or nOt.Thc suspcnded 10ad,On the other hand,is the amount Of sediment carried

⌒ as the watcr■ Ow creates small upward cwents(turbulencc)that kecp the particles abOve the bed .The sizc Ofthe particlcs that can be camed as suspended 10ad is dependent On the flow rate. ^ （ Larger particles are more likcly to fall thrOugh thc upward currents tO the bo■ om,unless the■ ow

rate incrcases,incrcasing the turbulencc at the streambed.Ll additiOn,suspcndcd sedimcnt will （ not neccssa五 ly remain suspended ifthe f10w rate slows.

Wash Load ^ The wash load is a subset of the suspended load. This load is comprised of the finest ^ suspended sediment (typically less than 0.00195 mm in diameter). The wash load is

^ differentiated from the suspended load because it will not settle to the bottom of a waterway

^ during a low or no flow period. lnstead, these particles remain in permanent suspension as they

ヘ are small enough to bounce off water molecules and stay afloat. However, during flow periods, the wash load and suspended load ⌒ are indistinguishable. Turbidity in lakes and slow moving rivers is typically due the wash load. When the flow ^ rate increases (increasing the suspended load and overall sediment transport), turbidity also

^ increases. While turbidity cannot be used to estimate sediment transport, it can approximate suspended sediment concentrations at a specific location. ^

^ River Dynamics (Physical)

^ The river meanders with convex & concave shape. The river in its course impinges on

^ convex side. The concave side abounds with sand grain. The mining operation is most profitable

on the concave side. There is yearly deposition of sand as the amount of sand excavated gets ^ redeposit in the pits by natural filing during flood season with slight variation depending upon ^ the amount of river flow, the quantity of water flowing and the amount of sand load carried ^ during the river flow. The deposition pattem will be monitored every year & measurements will ^ be carried out as soon as the monsoon comes to an end and fresh excavation will be carried.

From the steep scarys of sahyadri hi,s in the east, the rand ^ of the Distnct fa, through a succession ofplateaux in the north and eastem part ofthe District to the Ulhas basin in the south covering Jawhar, ^ Mokhada and parts ofTalasari, Dahanu, Vikramgarh, Vada Tahsils. The plateau of Mokhada ^ has an altitude ofabout 300 400 metres - though some spot heights nse to more than ハ 400 metres and sropes towards south east. Tarasan ries berow 200 metres sloping towards north rhe westem porrion of these plateaux ⌒ is badry dissected by numerous streams hence a number of smalr hills with row land in between are ⌒ the special features in the area. These small hills are covered with forests, which are mainry the reserved forests. The low-lfng lands in between the h,rocks ^ have good fertire soils, where rice curtivation is carried out during the ⌒ monsoon season.

ヘ Located in the centre of the District, Vaitama Valley includes parts of Vikramgarh, ⌒ Palghar' Vada Tahsils This Valley slopes towards west and attains height berow 100 metres. The surface is relatively ハ smooth in nature and has a shallow soil cover which is red and brown in colour' It is not very deep but is suitabre for rice curtivation during the monsoon season. ^ Ulhas basin includes parts ofVasai rahsir. The basin in generar ^ have a height below 100 metres' however some hillocks and its upper reaches attain height about of200 metres. ^ Ulhas basin slopes I l towards west and has an undulating surface. The strata ⌒ is mostly stony but the low lying areas in patches have good fertile so, in which nce, vegetable and other garden crops are grown here. ^

Tungar-Jayshet ls ^ h cover parts of vasai, vada and palghar Tahsils. These h ls run in ハ north-south direction rn a fairly well defined but in broken narrow ridge ofhills. These hills have very steep sropes in a, directions ⌒ and attain a maximum height of662 metres. These h,ls have a good forest cover. ハ

Parghar coast in a narrow strip is located in the extreme ハ western part ofthe District arong the coast in north-south extent. It covers parts of vasai, parghar, Dahanu and ralasari rahsils ^ and attains height a few metres above the mean sea level sroping towards west to the Arabian ハ Sea' The general appearance of the coast is submergent as can be seen fiom the row tidar flats, tidal marshes' tidar inlets and the presence ofnumerous ^ rocky islands and wave cut platforms. However' geologicary the coasr is not withour its variety. ⌒ As far as north Dahanu. raised beaches have been found running north_south close to the present shores. ^

Forestry ^

ハ This includes all land classified as forest under any legal enactrnent dealing with forest or ⌒ administered as forest, whether state owned or private and whether wooded or simply maintained as forest land' within the forest area itserf, there may be occasionally curtivated patches or ^ grazing lands, but such area are shown under column r04 0fthe village Directory as ヘ forest. The process of regularization of land grants and effecting relevant changes in the basic records of ⌒ survey and settlement are somewhat protracted and time consuming. Therefore the information based on records is in some cases at reast, ^ Iikely to be different when compared with the actual field situation. ⌒

Minerals and mining ^

Geologically, the Konkan coast is a ^ platform of marine denudation raised to form a narrow plain The geology of the entire District ^ consists of Deccan Trap with inter-trappean beds' These volcanic lava flows are spread out in the form ofhorizontal sheets or beds and have ^ innumerable spun, hills and hill ranges, flat topped ridges, lofty peaks and prateaux, There ハ are numerous dykes criss-crossing the area. The generar trend is, howeveq north-north\ est-south- ^ southwest and north-northeast-south southwest, dipping steepry to the east. The thickness serdom ‐ exceeds six metres.

^ Trap rocks being hard, dense and durable are most suitable for building purposes but generally ハ lack minerals common sart is co,ected by artificial evaporation in saleans along tlre coast. ハ

ヘ Soil and Cropping pattertr

The District has rru'ee main types ofsoils i.e. (i) The black coloured soils - occurring on （ plains/valleys (ii) The righter coloured coarse soils occupying h l-slopes (also known as varkas) Ａ and (iii) The black coroured coastal so s whrch can be grouped as Khar or saline soils and

sweet land soils. In the plains and valreys rice （ cultivation is in abundance. on the hill sropes the soil is poor and is used for growing grass and coarse grains like Nagli and vari. The ＾ coastar region having sweet land soils is used to grow mostly fruits. Banana, Mangoes, Guavas, and chikoos are the main fiuits in the District. Salts are produced in Khar or Saline soirs near ^ the coast. Rice cultivation is also practiced in the coastal soils. ヘ

A A major part of district is covered with basalt i.e. lava ,l\ flows generally called as Deccan Trap. This volcanic activity was confined mainly to Lower Eocene to Upper cretaceous age. Between two A eruptions there was a time gap and during this period upper surface of flow subject to denudation A and weathering' This time gap is marked by formation of Red bole and Ash beds. The upper surface of lava flows A has generally vesicular structures caused by the escape of the gases and steams from molten lava' During the sudden cooling at the surface, joints A and other openings developed. The upper surface of each flow therefore has a rough texture. Based on the megascopic structures and physical properties, basalts of the district can be classified into l) compact, Ｔ Massive Basalt. 2) vesicular zeolitic Basalt 3) Porphyritic Basalt 4) Fractured and Jointed Basalt. （ The thickness of compact & Massive flows vary （ between l5 m to 20 m thickness of Fractured and Jointed flows vary befween 5 to 8 meter. The thickness of vesicular zeolitic flows vary between 3 to 6 m and Porphyritic flows having thickness （ vary between l0 to 20 m.
