The said land is Private Land. for quarrying capacity of 4,000 Brass per year. The major highlights of the project are: The project comes under non agriculture land. Ideally located at a distance of 1.19 km from Waghangaon Village in the North West side. The village Waghangaon is located in the North West of the Vilawade Station Road No National park or wildlife sanctuary lies within the buffer zone or nearby this region. No displacements of settlement are required. No sensitive places of notified archaeological, historical or tourist importance within or nearby the buffer zone. Project Description Location: The site is located at Gut No 571 Part ,Waghangaon Village, Lanja Taluka, District Ratnagiri, Maharashtra. The site is accessible from State Highway No 275 . Land: The land provided comes under mining area approved by the government of Maharashtra. Therefore no need of human displacement is needed in the project area. The land provided for stone mining is 1.28 hectare to the project proponent. Co-ordinate: The coordinates of the plant site are latitude 16°48'8.43"N and longitude 73° 37'38.25"E Water: Water requirement of the project will be met through the water tanker and bore well which is existing in the human settlement area. Company does not exploit any other water resources or ground water; therefore no adverse impact is anticipated on water environment. The water requirement is estimated to be maximum of 1500 lit/day. Electric Supply: The Electric Supply will not require for the said Project. Project Cost: The total cost of the project including all facilities is estimated to be INR 35.00 Lacks. Topography: Ratnagiri is one of the coastal districts of Maharashtra and forms part of the Konkan region. It is situated in between the Western Ghats and the Arabian sea and lies between north latitudes 16°30’ and 18°04’ and east longitude 73°20’ and 73°52’ and falls in parts of Survey of India degreesheets 47 F, 47 G and 47 H. The district has a geographical area of 8326 sq. km. out of which about 59 sq.km. is covered by forest, whereas cultivable area is 52 24 sq. km. and net sown area is 2501 sq. km. The district forms part of coastal basin. Savitri, Vasisthi, Shastri, Ratnagiri, Jaitapur and Wagothan are the main rivers flowing through the district. Soil Quality: Based on the physical characteristics of the soils ,they can be classified into five major groups as follows. 1) Coarse Shallow Soil: They are reddish brown in colour and occur on the slopes of the hills and are partly eroded, poor in fertility, shallow in depth and coarse in texture. These soils are ideal for Cashew and Mango plantations. 2) Medium Deep Soil: These are reddish yellow in colour and have various names depending upon the place of occurrence. Those situated at higher elevations are known as Mal, while at slightly lower levels are known as Kuyat.Near water courses, which have a fair supply of water during Rabi season are known as Panthal or Vaigan. Paddy is grown on these soils during Kharif. On Panthal soils pulses and summer paddy can also been grown. 3) Deep Soil: They occur along river banks or valleys and are usually of mixed origin and are yellowish red to brown in colour. They are light, easily workable, well drained and fairly fertile. Areca nut and coconut gardens are grown well on these soils. 4) Coastal Alluvial Soil: They are found along the coastal strip and consist of deep sandy loams suitable for Coconut and Areca nut. 5) Coastal Saline Soil: Theyare formed due to the inundation of the sea, whereby part of coastal soils become salty. They are locally known as Khar, Khajan, Kharvat etc. They are found along coastal strip of Dapoli, Guhagar and Ratnagiri tehsils Meteorology: The average annual rainfall within the district is heavy and is about 1500-2500 mm in Ratnagiri district. The minimum temperature is the lowest and it ranges from about 16.8oC to 18oC. There is a rapid rise in temperature in March to May ranges from about 320C to 39 °C. The mean maximum temperature in the area goes up to 39°C. In all season relative humidity is between 61-86% as reported by Indian meteorological center. Water: Water needed for operation requirement shall be drawn from water tankers and bore well which is present in the human settlement area and not in the lease area. Ecology: No extra land will be acquired during the operation of the project there will be no adverse impact on some of the environmental aspect. In the area of the project proponent clustered green belt is found in the vicinity, hence there will not be any kind of deforestation. No rare or endangered species of flora and fauna are present in the immediate vicinity as well as the study area. Thus, there will not be any adverse impact on flora and fauna. Socio-economic: The project will provide positive impact on the economic development of the region in terms of employment opportunities. Moreover the above unit will be operating in an authorized mining land declared by the Govt. of India. Therefore no population will be displaced. Risk assessment plan Risks likely to pose threat to man, environment or property associated with various activities are addressed in this report. Such activities include transport, storage; handling and usage of fuels. Surrounding population shall be made aware of safety precautions to be taken in case of any mishap in project site. Conclusion The minor mineral project of stone Cutting will not have any adverse impact on the environment. Altogether the project will have a positive impact on social environment by providing employment opportunity for the skilled and unskilled labors living in the surrounding villages. Also the infrastructure around the site will be improved due to the project. Prefeasibility Report 1. INTRODUCTION OF THE PROJECT 1.1 Identification of the project proponent M/S Yash Construction has applied for a Stone Quarry lease over an area 1.28 Hectare in Survey no 571 Part of Village- Waghangaon, Taluka Lanja, District Ratnagiri, Maharashtra State, to the Additional Collector, Ratnagiri, for the period of five years.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION 2.1 Location: The project is located on a plot of land measuring 4.80 Hectare at Village Morde, Taluka Sangmeshwar, District Ratnagiri, Maharashtra. Project involve Stone Quarry of the capacity 10,000 brass/year. Table No.2 SALIENT FEATURES OF LOCATION Project Site Proposal for Quarrying of Minor Minerals, stone.

Fig 1: Project Location - latitude 16°48'8.43"N and longitude 73° 37'38.25"E ( Google Earth Image of the project site) 2.2 Land Distribution around Site The project site will be having quarry area. 2.3 Size and Magnitude of Operation The estimated cost of the project is going to be INR 35 Lacks, including a capital expenditure of INR 3 lacks on environmental matters. It is expected that the recurring costs on environmental matters would be INR 2 lacks. The project capacity is 4,000 Brass/Annum. 2.4 Proposed Crushing Unit Process Details It is an Stone quarry project, so there will be requirement of Crushing unit. 2.5 mining technology Four technologies namely bucket wheel system, Dragline system, shovel dumper system and surface mine with pay loader system are well known for quarrying plan. Due to multi seam, abrasive sandstone, hard carb shale and many faults bucket wheel system has not been considered. Dragline system has also not been considered due to many faults. Shovel dumper system is very flexible and offer convenient mining. The project proponent is using Shovel dumper system and manual method for the quarrying of stones. Surface miner system can be considered when overburden generated can be backfilled. Surface miner system is costly, this can be the reason for its less use. 2.6 Water Sources Water is required in the project site for various purposes like spraying to control the dust generation.
