PREFACE In compliance to the Notification issued by the Ministry of Environment and Forest and Climate Change notification No. S.O. 3611 (E) New Delhi dated 25-07-2018, the preparation of District Survey Report of river sand mining in accordance with Appendix X of the Notification. Every effort have been made to cover sand mining locations, areas and overview of mining activity in the district with all its relevant features pertaining to geology and mineral wealth in replenishable and non-replenishable areas of rivers, stream and other sand sources. This report will be a model and guiding document which is a compendium of available mineral resources, geographical set up, environmental and ecological setup of the district and is based on data of various departments, study conducted by renowned institutions, published reports and websites. SURVEY REPORT OF TIRUVALLUR DISTRICT As per Gazette Notification No. S.O. 3611 (E) New Delhi dated 25-07-2018 of Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change, a survey shall be carried out by the District Environment Impact Assessment Authority (DEIAA) with assistance of Water Resources Department, Forest Department, Geology and Mining Department and Revenue Department in the District for preparation for District Survey Report as per sustainable sand mining guidelines to ensure identification of areas of aggradation or deposition where mining can be allowed and identification of areas of erosion and proximity to infrastructural structures and installations where mining should be prohibited and calculation of annual rate of replenishment and allowing time for replenishment after mining in that area. The detailed study has been made to cover sand mining locations, area and overview of mining activity in the district with all its relevant features pertaining to geology and mineral wealth in replenishable and non-replenishable areas of rivers, stream and other sand sources. The mineral potential is calculated based on field investigation and geology of the catchment area of the river (or) Streams. The area for removal of the mineral in a river or stream is decided depending on geomorphology and other factors. The District Survey Report shall Page | 3 DISTRICT SURVEY REPORT Tiruvallur District form on the basis for application for Environmental Clearance, preparation of reports and appraisal of projects. The report shall be updated once in five years. 2. INTRODUCTION: Tiruvallur ddistrictistrict is an administrative district in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu. The town of Tiruvallur is the district headquarters. As of 2011, the district had a population of 3,728,104 with a sex-ratio of 987 females for every 1,000 males. It is located in the North eastern part of Tamil Nadu between 12 ° 15’ and 13° 15‘ North and 79° 15‘ and 80 ° 20 ‘ East. The district is bounded by the Bay of Bengal in the East.Vellore district of Tamil Nadu and Chitoor district of Andhra Pradesh on the West, Nellore district of Andhra Pradesh on the North and on the South by Kancheepuram district. The district spreads over an area of about 3422 Sq.km.The district comprising of 9 taluks, 14 blocks, 5 Municipalities and 10 Panchayat unions.The average normal rainfall of the District is 1104 mm. Out of which 52% has been received during North East Monsoon period and 41% has been received during South West Monsoon period. 3. OVERVIEW OF MINING ACTIVITIES IN THE DISTRICT. The Mining activities available for sand, Gravel, Jelly, Savudu, Rough stone, Black Granite. Mainly two types of Minor minerals constituents such as sand and jelly are required for any type of construction. In earlier times, the houses / buildings were constructed in form of small dwellings with walls made up of mud plaster, stone and interlocking provided with wooden frames and there were negligible commercial as well as developmental activities resulting in less demand of binding materials. However with the percentage of time, new vistas of development activities were started. The quantity of minor mineral consumption in a particular area is thermometer to assess the development of the area. Thus with the pace of development activities, the consumption of minerals also increased. As Tamil Nadu State is highly urbanized state of Indian sub-continent after Maharashtra, the demand of minor minerals in the Tiruvallur District has started increasing trend, the highly industrialized districts like Chennai, Kancheepuram, are depending its sand and rough stone need on Tiruvallur Districts.

    1. Performance monitoring of all STPs in Chennai, especially those commissioned under NRCP reflecting the impact of CCRCP. During 2000-01, the Government of Tamil Nadu, along with the Government of India formulated the Chennai City River Conservation Project (CCRCP) with an objective to: i. Prevent sewage entering into the waterways. ii. Augment the treatment capacity of the Sewage Treatment Plants at Nesapakkam, Koyambedu, Kodungaiyur and Perungudi. iii. Keep the city waterways clean on a sustainable basis. The Ministry of Environment & Forests, Government of India during the year 2000-01 had sanctioned a sum of Rs.491.52 crore for the component “Prevention of untreated sewage flow reaching waterways in Chennai City”, which was carried out through Chennai Metropolitan Water Supply and Sewerage Board (CMWSSB) under NRCP. The following are the major components: S.No. Work Components Amount (Crore) 1 Strengthening & Capacity expansion of sewer system 382.00 2 Construction of STPs 109.52 Total 491.52 CCRCP was commenced and implemented by CMWSSB from the year 2001 in 16 packages. These works were implemented not just in the Cooum River Basin, but also in Adyar River Basin, Captain Cotton Canal Basin, Otteri Nallah Basin, Buckingham Canal Basin and in Mambalam Drain Basin. The project consisted of laying of interceptors for a length of 59.2 km, improvements to 28 pumping stations, construction of 3 new pumping stations, laying of sewage pumping mains for a length of 28.85 km and gravity conveying mains for a length of 17.3 km through 12 packages. Construction of 4 sewage treatment plants to enhance the sewage treatment capacity by 264 MLD was carried out in Packages 13 to 16.

Chennai, the capital city of Tamil Nadu is located in the South East of India and lies at a mere 6.7m above mean sea level. Chennai is in a vulnerable location due to storm surges as well as tropical cyclones that bring about heavy rains and yearly floods. The 2004 Tsunami greatly affected the coast, and rapid urbanization, accompanied by the reduction in the natural drain capacity of the ground caused by encroachments on marshes, wetlands and other ecologically sensitive and permeable areas has contributed to repeat flood events in the city. Channelized rivers and canals contaminated through the presence of informal settlements and garbage has exasperated the situation. Natural and man-made water infrastructures that include, monsoon water harvesting and storage systems such as the Temple tanks and reservoirs have been polluted, and have fallen into disuse.

This is with regard to an application for consideration of the Proposed Revised Master Plan Development of Kattupalli Port, by Marine Infrastructure Developer Private Limited (MIDPL) at Kattupalli, Tiruvallur District, Tamil Nadu, which is to be considered in the 38th EAC Meeting (CRZ- Infrastructure 2 Projects), on February 6, 2019. It is required of Project Proponents to consider alternate sites, when presenting a proposal. This has been enshrined in the MoEF’s guideline for a Project ​ ​ Feasibility Report, which requires it to detail ‘alternate sites to be considered, and the basis for choosing the proposed site, particularly the environmental considerations gone into it should be highlighted’.
