The main objective of Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is to assess the Environmental components for the Existing Four Fish Markets at Puducherry and to prepare suitable Environmental Management plan. First phase of this study, the holistic ideas of the present status of the Puducherry were recorded with the Project Implementation Agency (PIA), under the Emergency Tsunami Reconstruction Project (ETRP) formed to pursue development projects in the Tsunami affected villages of Puducherry. The present Environmental status of the four fish markets namely, Goubert, Chinnakadai, Muthaliyarpet, and Saram were observed recorded and discussed. The baseline environmental components were assessed with parameters like air, water, soil, noise, odour and Ecological resources of floral and faunal status. All these environmental parameters are recorded, analyzed and discussed in detail and the likely impacts on each environmental component during construction and operational phases are evaluated. The mitigation measures and management plan for environmental components are discussed and suggested. E.S. 2 Project Details The project aims at the facelift to the existing structure of four fish markets, which comprises with the improvement of water supply, sanitation, electrical fittings, solid and Liquid waste management, safety and security. 9 Environmental Assessment and Management Plan for the Proposed Improvements to the Existing Fish Markets at Puducherry EIAReport Market wise details are as follows: Table.
