SAWEN Consultancy Services Pvt. Ltd, Lucknow was contracted by Shiva Construction to secure No Objection Certificate (NOC) from Uttar Pradesh Pollution Control Board (UPPCB) for the proposed development. The proposed project is an institutional project having built up area of 34358 m2. The project provides adequate open spaces, thereby making available more area defining the quality of recreational environment. The allocated land is having total plot area of 80735 m2 easily approachable through Darshan Nagar Railway Station, 4.59 Km, and NW and connected to various places, through national highways, rail links, bus ways and telecommunication. The estimated cost of the project will be Rs. 14.45 Crore. The U.P. State Electricity Board will provide essential load of 120 KVA to meet the electrical requirement of the proposed project. Appropriate fire fighting measures including entry and exit way marking signs, emergency lights, ventilation, essential emergency electrical services and stationary fire pump (jockey) shall be provided for the proposed project. In the layout, some area has been reserved for green belt development and a vision to create a buffer to help in creation of calm, serene and cool environment for the beautification between the busy city area and the adjoining traffic routes. Green belt will be provided with ecological perspectives for the proposed project taking into consideration of urban biodiversity and native species within the existing premises. The water with overall requirement of 47 KLD shall be managed by 01 no. of Tube well. STP of 35 KLD is being developed for the treatment of domestic waste shall be provisioned within the proposed project. Natural slope of the area will be retained and will be graded to fall towards the roads or drain paths and storm water will be made to percolate to 04 nos. of recharge pit proposed for ground water recharge. For traffic noise, plantation along the traffic route shall be provided to act as a noise barrier. It has been roughly estimated that 388 kg/day of solid waste generated from the proposed building, for which 01 no. of transit center is provided. Well facilitate road area and &parking area for staff and visitors is provided within the existing premises. Environment Consultant: - M/s Sawen Consultancy Services Pvt.

The Proponent has come up with this proposal of developing theme Park, Amusement park & Water Park which will enhance the beautify the place for public to visit for leisure and increase its tourist inflow and other activities. Development of the project will enhance the aesthetic value of the site. 1.1 ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS OF BUILDING & CONSTRUCTION PROJECT The Building Sector of the project itself accounts for about one third of the total energy consumption world-wide and with institutional/residential buildings contributing slightly more than half of that percentage from 1980 to 2006. Total building sector energy consumption worldwide has increased more than 46%. Now whether such growth rates will continue in future is uncertain. The use of water by the building sector worldwide has also grown significantly between 1985 and 2005. Such increase of water consumption is causing a lot of stress upon the water supply systems and the water provider aquifers. The recent droughts and the growing trends of drying river bed tend to affect the climate changes of the Indian Subcontinent. 1.1.1 Building Construction Affects the Environment Using non-sustainable materials in the construction of the building has a temporary negative effect. Building construction is responsible for a huge percentage of the greenhouse gas emissions that have been affecting climate change. In fact, the buildings are responsible for nearly 38% of all CO2 emissions. Many of the materials used in the construction of buildings are produced in a non- sustainable way. The factories that make the materials produce damaging CO2 emissions. 1.1.2 Waste from Building Construction and Demolition The destruction and renovation of buildings result in a large amount of waste. Building waste often includes concrete, metals, glass, plastics, wood, asphalt, bricks and more. This waste is often disposed of in either landfills or incinerators. Not only does this pollute the land and the air, but the transportation required to remove such waste has a major impact on the environment as well. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, there were already over 170 million tonnes of debris generated in the construction and demolition of buildings in the U.S. alone in 2003. 61 percent of which were produced by nonresidential buildings. The present proposal is about new development on vacant plot hence this category of waste generation is not applicable to this project. 1.1.3 Building Energy Consumption Buildings account for 40% of energy use worldwide (WBCSD).Energy used during its lifetime causes as much as 90% of environmental impacts from buildings (Journal of Green Building).Building operations consume more than 2/3 of all electricity (BuildingScience.com. Residential and commercial buildings consume 40% of the primary energy and 71% of the total electricity in the world. Environment Consultant: - M/s Sawen Consultancy Services Pvt. Ltd., Page | 4 Conceptual plan for development of Ayodhya Eye Theme Park at NH-28, Shree Ram Puram, (Tihura) near Ram Katha Sankul, Tehsil & district- Faizabad, Uttar Pradesh Energy consumed in the buildings sector consists of residential and commercial end users and accounts for 20.1% of the total delivered energy consumed worldwide. Energy consumption in the residential sector includes all energy consumed by households, excluding transportation uses. Consumption of delivered, or site, energy contrasts with the use of the primary energy that also includes the energy used to generate and deliver electricity to individual sites such as homes, offices, or industrial plants. In the International Energy Outlook 2016 (IEO2016) Reference case, delivered energy consumption in buildings worldwide increases by an average of 1.5%/year from 2012 to 2040. In the non-Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (non-OECD) nations, consumption of delivered energy in buildings grows by 2.1%/year from 2012 to 2040, nearly three times the growth rate for the OECD nations. For the OECD region, residential energy consumption increases by an average of 0.6%/year from 2012 to 2040. As demand for household electronics increases, electricity surpasses natural gas as the largest source of energy for OECD residential use, accounting for 43% of total residential consumption in 2040. Accordingly, the shares of fossil fuels, including natural gas, liquid fuels, and coal, decrease. Residential sector electricity demand grows by an average of 1.0%/year over the projection period and natural gas consumption grows by 0.6%/year, compared with a decline of 0.3%/year for coal and liquid fuels. 1.1.4 Indoor Environment Is Detrimental To Human Health The quality of air inside buildings as represented by concentrations of pollutants and thermal (Temperature and Relative Humidity) conditions that affect the health, comfort, and performance of occupants. Indoor air quality (IAQ) is linked to health of the occupants: -IAQ is an important concern – both rural and urban. US EPA pointed out that indoor air pollution poses a greater risk than outdoor air pollution - people spend 80-90% of their time indoors (Yu and Browers, 2013) Carbon based gaseous pollutants (VOCs) indoors could be 2 to 5 times higher than outdoors. Presence of air pollutants in indoor environment a global issue due to adverse effects on human health (Tsakas, Siskos and Siskos, 2011).Indoor air pollution - ranked among the top five environmental health risks to the public by EPA.
