NO. 274/1, 274/2, 276/A2, 277/A1, TEKULAPALLI VILLAGE, PENUBALLI MANDAL, KHAMMAM DISTRICT, TELANGANA EXECUTIVE SUMMARY SUBMITTED TO TELANGANA STATE POLLUTION CONTROL BOARD, REGIONAL OFFICE, KOTHAGUDEM Dashrath Prasad Fertilizers Pvt. Ltd. Executive Summary EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Introduction Fertilizers are generally defined as “any material, organic or inorganic, one or more of chemical elements required for plant growth”. Fertilizers have played a vital role in success of India’s green revolution and consequently self-reliance in food grains production. The increase in fertilizer consumption has contributed significantly to sustainable production of food grains in the country. Single superphosphate (SSP) was the first commercial mineral fertilizer and it led to the development of the modern plant nutrient industry. This material was once the most commonly used fertilizer, but other phosphorus (P) fertilizers have largely replaced SSP because of its relatively low P content. Dashrath Prasad Fertilizers Pvt. Ltd. proposes to include Single Super Phosphate (SSP) manufacturing facility in permitted/consented NPK Fertilizers (by mixing only) unit in an area of 12.6 acres located at Sy. No. 274/1, 274/2, 276/A2, 277/A1, Tekulapalli Village, Penuballi Mandal, Khammam District, Telangana. The capital cost of the project is Rs. 5.5 crores. Prior environmental clearance is mandated by Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEFCC), vide SO 1533, dated September 14, 2006, for Chemical Fertilizers manufacturing activity. The project sought terms of reference for preparation of EIA report during March 2017. State Expert Appraisal Committee (SEAC) of Telangana advised the proponent to prepare EIA based on Standard Terms of Reference issued by Ministry of Environment, Forests and Climate Change (MoEFCC) for “Chemical Fertilizers” in the SEAC meeting held on 07.04.2017 and the draft Environmental impact assessment (EIA) report is prepared in compliance of the TOR to conduct public hearing.

The manufacturing process is presented in chapter 2 of EIA report. Utilities It is proposed to establish 1 x 250 kVA DG set in addition to existing 320 kVA DG set to cater the power requirement during load shutdown period. The list of utilities is presented in the following table; List of Utilities S.No Description Capacity (TPA) Consented Proposed Total after Inclusion of SSP 1 DG Set (kVA)* 1 x 320 1 x 250 1 x 320 and 1 x 250 *DG sets will be used during load shut down by Transco. E-2 Team Labs and consultants Dashrath Prasad Fertilizers Pvt. Ltd. Executive Summary Water Requirement Water is mainly used for scrubbers, domestic usage and gardening. The total water requirement after inclusion of Single Super Phosphate shall be 42.5 KLD. The required water shall be drawn from ground water. The water balance for daily consumption is presented in the following table;. Water Balance Purpose INPUT (KLD) OUTPUT (KLD) Loss Effluent Consented Process 2.5 2.5* Domestic 3 0.6 2.4 Total - I 5.5 3.1 2.4 Proposed Scrubber 30 30** Domestic 2 0.4 1.6 Water for gardening 5 5 Total - II 37 5.4 31.6 Grand Total (I + II) 42.5 8.5 34 * 2.5 KL of the losses mentioned in the consented products is part of the product. ** 30 KL of the effluent from scrubber is reused for acid dilution. Baseline Environmental Data The baseline data was collected in the study area during March to June 2017. The baseline data includes collection of Samples of ground water, surface water and soil, monitoring of ambient air quality, noise levels, ecological status and meteorological parameters. The analytical results show that the values are within the prescribed limits for air quality. The ground water quality is observed to be above the limits for potable purpose when compared to the prescribed standards of IS: 10500 – 2012. Identification and Quantification of Impacts The impact assessment report has identified various sources of pollution and quantified the pollution loads. It has also identified the technologies to be adopted for the mitigation and control of the same. The sources of pollution are air emissions from process; wastewater from domestic usage; solid wastes from process and DG set; and noise pollution from process equipment and DG set. Impacts on Air quality: The impacts on air quality shall be due to the emissions from process and standby DG set. The incremental concentrations are quantified using ISC- E-3 Team Labs and consultants Dashrath Prasad Fertilizers Pvt. Ltd. Executive Summary AERMOD model based on ISCST3 Algorithm. The results indicate marginal increase in ambient air quality concentration. The predicted values for SPM, PM10, PM2.5, SO2, NOx, and HF are 1.65, 0.66, 0.78, 2.92, 5.64 and 0.07 μg/m3 respectively and the maximum values are observed at a distance of 0.4 km from the center of plant site in northeast direction. The cumulative values of baseline air quality combined with predicted values are found to be within the prescribed limits of National Ambient Air Quality Standards. The mitigation and control measures of air pollution shall ensure that the impact on air quality is local – within the site area and its surroundings. Impacts on Water: Water is essentially used for scrubbing and domestic purposes. The total fresh water required after inclusion of SSP 42.5 KLD, will be drawn from ground water sources. No wastewater is generated from SSP manufacturing process. Wastewater from scrubbing will be reused for dilution of concentrated sulphuric acid. The domestic wastewater is sent to septic tank followed by soak pit. No impact on water quality is expected. Impacts on Noise quality: The noise levels may increase due to granulators, dryer, bucket elevators and screw conveyors, motors, compressors, DG set and other activities. The major source of noise generation is DG set which emit noise level of maximum 110 dB (A) at a reference distance of 1m from the source. The predicted cumulative noise levels (as calculated by the logarithmic model without noise attenuation) ranged between 55 and 75 dB(A) at distances of 87 to 165m. Impacts on Soil: No solid wastes generated from process. The waste oil and used batteries are sold to authorized recyclers. Ash from boiler is sold to brick manufacturers in the local area. The operational phase impacts shall be neutral due to effective implementation of mitigation measures in handling, storing and transferring of raw materials, products and development of green belt. Impacts on Ecology: There are no endangered species of flora and fauna in the impact area. The impact on biological environment is neutral with the effect confined mainly to the site area. E-4 Team Labs and consultants Dashrath Prasad Fertilizers Pvt. Ltd. Executive Summary Environmental Monitoring Programme It is proposed to monitor Ambient Air Quality (AAQ) for PM10, PM2.5, SO2 and NOX, stack emissions for process and DG sets, noise levels on quarterly basis. Water, treated wastewater on daily basis, soil analysis will be done once in a year. Project Benefits There is a potential for direct/indirect employment of about 15 people during construction phase and 50 during operation phase of project. The project shall have positive impact on socioeconomic environment due to provision of employment both direct and indirect and proposed CSR activities. Environment Management Plan The management plan is drawn in consultation with project proponents and technical consultants after evaluating various mitigation and control measures to address the impacts identified, predicted and monitored. The impacts during construction stage are temporary and less significant; the management plan for impacts identified during operation stage is described as follows; Liquid Effluents No wastewater is generated from SSP manufacturing process.

  • Enhancing Development Outcomes Download
    Sustainable Tribal Empowerment Project Social Mobilisation, Empowerment and Capabilities : In India, over the last several decades, development goals and targets have been backed by commitment of resources by the State through an extensive array of public programs. However, indicators of human development, particularly among marginalized communities, point to the sub-optimal outcomes from Social Mobilization, Empowerment and Capabilities these investments. This Report analyzes the reasons for the continuing and large gaps between the social sector outlays Enhancing Development Outcomes and the outcomes. Through the experiences of the Sustainable Tribal Empowerment Project (STEP), the Report argues why it is essential for focusing on building community capacities to enable them to overcome barriers of participation and utilize opportunities for acquiring a range of assets and capabilities both at the individual as well as collective levels. The Report presents the strategy and interventions of STEP, being implemented in 6000 tribal communities in four districts of Andhra Pradesh since November 2001 with the objective of empowering them to realize their rights and overcome poverty, hunger and malnutrition. The outcomes of STEP have been measured through a group of indicators, which collectively form the Human Empowerment Index and Gender Empowerment Index. The indicators encompass the social, economic and political dimensions of development in the Project Area. The Report also compares these indices with those in the Control Area to establish the signifi cant impact made by the project. This Report will be of use to all those who are engaged in the process of human development and empowerment of poor in India.
