For the existing units of M/s Jai Balaji Industries Limited (Unit IV) at Village - Banskopa, Dist - Paschim Bardhaman, P.S.- Coke Oven, Rajbandh, Durgapur – 713212, West Bengal, has obtained 1st EC from MoEF&CC, New Delhi on 28/08/2007 vide file no. J-11011/280/2007-IA(II)I and 2nd EC from MoEF&CC, New Delhi on 29/11/2010 vide file no. J-11011/496/2009-IA(II)I for ultimate production of 1,20,000 TPA sponge iron, 2x45 m3 MBF, 5x15 T Induction Furnaces, 73,596 TPA Ferro Alloys, 2,31,996 TPA Rolled Products, 3,50,000 TPA Coke Oven Plant, 3x3000 m3 PGP Plant and 85 MW captive power plant. Now, M/s Jai Balaji Industries Limited (Unit IV) is proposing to expand its existing steel plant’s (Unit-IV) production capacity enhancement through modification / replacement / new addition of existing 2x45 M3 MBF to 2x75 M3 MBF to produce 1,33,650 TPA of hot metal, existing 5x15 T Induction Furnaces to 9x25 T Induction Furnaces with matching CCM to produce 8,91,000 TPA of Billets, existing Rolling Mill capacity from 2,31,996 TPA to 8,46,450 TPA of rolled products, existing Coke Oven Plant Capacity from 3,50,000 TPA to 3,90,000 TPA of Coke along with new installation of 2x16.5 MVA SAF to enhance SAF capacity from 3x16.5 MVA to 5x16.5 MVA to produce 1,81,500 TPA of Ferro Alloys, 1X45 MW new AFBC boiler based Captive Power Plant to enhance CPP capacity from 85 MW To 130 MW, 0.5 MTPA Iron Ore Beneficiation Plant to produce 5,00,000 TPA of iron ore concentrate, 1x21 M2 Sinter Plant to produce 2,31,500 TPA of Sinter, 1X25 T EAF & 2X25 T LRF with matching CCM to produce 1,81,500 TPA of Billets, PCI Plant to produce 13,200 TPA of pulverized coal. The existing Steel Plant of M/s JBIL, Unit IV is situated at Village - Banskopa, P.S.- Coke Oven, Rajbandh, Durgapur - 713212, District Paschim Bardhaman, West Bengal. Its geo-graphical coordinates are Latitude 23°28’52.98"N to 23°29‘5.55"N and Longitude 87°20‘54.48"E to 87°21‘51.78"E with Above Mean Sea Level 228 ft (69.5m).

The entire land is in possession of the Company. The land is already developed for the industrial use. Existing Baseline Environmental Scenario: The baseline environmental data have been being generated for the period 1st December, 2020 to 28th February, 2021 for various environmental attributes such as Meteorology, Ambient air Quality, Surface and Ground Water Quality, Noise, Soil, Ecology, Demography and Socio-Economic Status etc. The base line assessment is being carried out to identify potentially sensitive and critical areas that may be affected by the project in 10 km radius study area of the project site. The 10 km radius study area map is presented below: Page-2 JAI BALAJI Proposed Expansion cum Modification of the existing Integrated Steel Plant at Village - INDUSTRIES LIMITED Banskopa, P.S.- Coke Oven, Rajbandh, Durgapur - 713212, Dist - Paschim Bardhaman, (Unit IV) West Bengal PROECT SITE 10 KM RADIUS STUDY AREA MAP Project Site Location: Village - Banskopa, P.S.- Coke Oven, Rajbandh, Durgapur - 713212, District Paschim Bardhaman, West Bengal Geographical co-ordinates: Latitude 23°28’52.98"N to 23°29‘5.55"N and Longitude 87°20‘54.48"E to 87°21‘51.78"E with Above Mean Sea Level - 228 ft (69.5m) The existing environment and baseline conditions should be established from: - Analysis of existing site data collection, information published and secondary data. - Consultation with relevant statutory authorities, and Field visits for supplementation of missing gaps.
