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 maximumof 4000 lit/day. Sadekar Enviro Engineers Pvt. Ltd Page 2 Shri. Sameer A. Pimpley Electric Supply: The power requirement for the project will be Nil. Project Cost: The total cost of the project including all facilities is estimated to be INR 40 Lakh Location: The project site falls under the district of Pune. The site falls under Survey No. 27/1, village Kolewadi, Taluka Haveli, Pune, Maharashtra. Topography: The project site falls under the district of Pune. The district Pune lies in the western part of the state of Maharashtra. Pune District is located between the north latitudes of 17 degrees 54 minutes and 10 degrees 24 minutes ,and east longitudes of 73 degree 19 minutes and 75 degrees 10 minutes east longitude. Pune district is bounded by Ahemadnagar District on north-east, Solapur district on south-east, Satara district on the south, Raigad district on the west and Thane Distirct on the north-west. The District has a total geographical area of 15,642 square kilometers which is 5.10 percent of the total geographical area of the site . it is the second largest district in the state of Maharashtra. Soil Quality: The soil quality around the Pune district mainly fall into three categories ordinary soil, red soil and brownish black soil. Ordinary or regular soil which is found Pune is fertile and useful for horticulture, paddy cultivation and vegetables. The soil is slightly deep, well drained, fine calcareous. Geology: The entire Pune district is covered by the Deccan trap lava flows of Eocene to upper cretaceous. The Deccan trap is overlain by alluvium along the major rivers flowing through the district. Deccan Trap: The basaltic lava flows belonging to the Deccan traps of Eocene to upper cretaceous is the only major geological formation occurring in Pune district. The lava flows generally consist of two distinct flow units. The upper layer consists of vesicular and amygdular traps. The vesicles are often filled with zeolites, and secondary silica, large crystals of amethyst have been reported from Pune district. The lower layer consists of massive traps. The flows are generally separated by thick layer of red bole. The flow thickness varies from few meters to as much as 30 meters. The flows are ‘Pahoehoe’ and ‘’Aa’’ type. A large number of dolertic dykes intruding the lava flows have been reported. Alluvium: The Deccan Traps are overlain by alluvium along the courses of major rivers of the district viz. Nira, Mula, Bhima and Ghod. The alluvium deposits have very narrow stretch across the river and consist of clay and sand. The thickness varies between 6 to 10 meters. A significant alluvium patch occurs along the river Karha, which covers part of Baramati tahsil. Lineaments: The fractures in the form of lineaments have been observed in the satellite images of Pune district. The prominent trends of the lineaments are north-south, north- east south-west and north-west south-east. The lineaments have controlled the course of Sadekar Enviro Engineers Pvt. Ltd Page 3 Shri. Sameer A. Pimpley the streams, for example, the course of Ghod River is controlled by north-west south-east lineaments. Meteorology: Average rainfall in the district is 600 to 700 mm. This is usually during the monsoon months from July - October. Moderate temperatures are mainly observed here. The rainfall is unpredictable in tune with the Indian monsoon. Summers here begin from early March to July. Summers are dry and hot. The temperature ranges from 20°C to 38°C, though at the peak they may reach 40°C. From November to January, is the winter season. Temperatures at the peak drop to single digits but usually they hover around 9°C to 14°C sometimes lowers up to 3°C. January to March are the months with moderate temperatures. Water: Water needed for operation requirement shall be drawn from water tankers. Ground Water Status : Groundwater Status of Pune Region is mixed type, high rainfall in Sahyadri hill ranges, but due to steep slope and hard rock type more rain off and less recharge, hence poor in groundwater condition. But major irrigation projects are constructed in Sahyadri ranges. The D.P.A.P. area covers part of Sangli, Satara, Pune and entire Solapur district, where groundwater condition is moderate to poor. 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. Therefore no population will be displaced. Sadekar Enviro Engineers Pvt. Ltd Page 4 Shri. Sameer A. Pimpley PREFEASIBILITY REPORT 1. INTRODUCTION OF THE PROJECT 1.1 Identification of the project proponent Shri. Sameer A. Pimpley have applied for quarrying lease over an area of 4.00 Ha.In the Survey No. 27/1, village Kolewadi, Taluka Haveli, Pune, Maharashtra, with excavation capacity of the 1,55,000 T/A. Shri. Sameer A. Pimpley has appointed M/s. Sadekar Enviro Engg. Pvt. Ltd to carry out Prefeasibility and EMP report. The major highlights of the project are: ¾ The project comes under non agriculture land. ¾ No displacements of settlement are required. ¾ No sensitive places of notified archaeological, historical or tourist importance within or nearby the buffer zone. 1.2 Crushing Activity No crusher installed in lease area. 1.3 Need of the Project The proposed mining production is covered under the Ministry of Environment & Forests Notification 2006. This report of Prefeasibility is given here as a part of the information to be furnished to the DEAC, Govt of Maharashtra for obtaining Environmental Clearance as per office Memorandum No. S.O.141(E) dated 15.01.2016. To meet the ever-increasing local demand for stone by the building industry and Construction Company the project proponent intends to produce the following quantities of non-crushed stones by Manual method of quarry activity. The year wise production and development details for the five years plan period are summarized in the table below. Sadekar Enviro Engineers Pvt. Ltd Page 5 Shri. Sameer A. Pimpley Table No. 1: Production Plan for Five years Year Stone, tonnes/A I (2016-17) 130500 II (2017-18) 135000 III (2018-19) 139500 IV (2019-20) 144000 V (2020-21) 148500 Total 697500 1.4 Demand Supply Gap Since it is an allied industry of the construction sector, growth in construction sector may be considered as proxy for the growth in stone crushing sector, i.e. around 7-8%. Crushed/ non-crushed stone has a very minor share among the exports of non-metallic mineral products of India. It is observed that total export volume of the crushed stone has been very low, whereas, Marble has the highest share and remained at the top. The market scope for crushed stone is found to be encouraging in local market with the increased demand from building industry & construction fields. There is also a sufficient demand from Govt. Contractors for laying of roads and construction of industries etc. The entry in the target market is easy and there is a narrow gap in the supply and demand, which is expected to grow in the coming years. The business opportunity to fill the demand and supply gap would be quite profitable.

  • Mobility and Subsistence Strategies: a Case Study of Inamgaon) a Chalcolithic Site in Western India
    Mobility and Subsistence Strategies: A Case Study of Inamgaon) A Chalcolithic Site in Western India SHEENA PANJA ARCHAEOLOGY TODAY deals with being critical of our assumptions; being re­ flexive, relational, and contextual. The conclusions are always flexible and open to change as new relations emerge. It is impossible to approach the data without prejudice and without some general theory, but the aim is to evaluate such gen­ erality in relation to the contextual data. Our own understanding about human behavior acts as a generalization with which to understand the past. Nevertheless, we can agree that the past is objectively organized in contexts that are different from our own. The internal archaeological evidence then forces us to consider whether the past subject we are dealing with is familiar to us or makes us rethink deep-seated presuppositions about the nature of human behavior. The objective component of archaeological data means that the archaeologist can be confronted with a past that is different from the present. It is this guarded objectivity of the material "other" that provides the basis of critique. It is thus a hermeneutical pro­ cedure that involves a dialectical interplay between our own understandings and the forms of life we are seeking to understand. It is an ongoing dialogue between the past and the present in which the outcome resides wholly in neither side but is a product of both (Hodder 1991; Hodder et al. 1995; Wylie 1989). It is with these ideas in mind that this article is aimed to analyze critically certain categories archaeologists use to understand human behavior in a dialectical effort to understand the past.

  • Subsistence Strategies and Burial Rituals: Social Practices in the Late Deccan Chalcolithic
    Subsistence Strategies and Burial Rituals: Social Practices in the Late Deccan Chalcolithic TERESA P. RACZEK IN THE SECOND MILLENNIUM B.C., THE RESIDENTS OF THE WESTERN DECCAN region of India practiced an agropastoral lifestyle and buried their infant children in ceramic urns below their house floors. With the coming of the first millennium B.C., the inhabitants of the site of Inamgaon altered their subsistence practices to incorporate more wild meat and fewer grains into their diet. Although daily practices in the form of food procurement changed, infant burial practices remained constant from the Early Jorwe (1400 B.c.-lOOO B.C.) to the Late Jorwe (1000 B.c.-700 B.C.) period. Examining interments together with subsistence strategies firmly situates ideational practices within the fabric of daily life. This paper will explore the relationship between change and continuity in burial and subsistence practices around 1000 B.C. at the previously excavated Cha1colithic site of Inamgaon in the western Deccan (Fig. 1). By considering the act of burial as a moment of social construction that both creates and reflects larger traditions, it is possible to understand how each individual interment affects chronological variability. That burial traditions at Inamgaon were continuously recreated in the face of a changing society suggests that meaningful and significant practices were actively upheld. Burial practices at Inamgaon were both structured and fluid enough to allow room for individual and group expression. The con­ temporaneous variability that occurs in the burial record at Inamgaon may reflect the marking of various aspects of personhood. Burial traditions and the ability and desire of the living to conforITl to them vary over time and it is important to consider the specific social context in which they occur.

Abstract Water is one of the most important compounds in the world. The contamination and pollution of water is of great concern in the world for the developing countries like India. The question of water pollution has acquired a critical stage. Human activities, industries, hospitals, sewage water, agricultural diffused pollution are some of the sources of water pollution. Drinking water quality is one of the important environmental health detriments. Use of safe drinking water is a foundation for the control and prevention of water born diseases. In this work we have analyzed Mula-Mutha river water quality for drinking purpose. Various river water parameters were analyzed and are compared to established standards given by WHO. The river water analysis showed that the river water is not suitable for potable use in city area. Keywords: Mula-Mutha River, Pune City, Physico-chemical analysis, Water pollution INTRODUCTION The entire Pune City is covered by Mula-Mutha rivers. River Mula originates from Mulshi Dam which forms Mulshi Lake. River Mutha originates from Panshet Dam Via Khadakwasla Dam.

  • Chronological Developement of Pune City Chapter II
    Chapter II Chronological Developement of Pune City Chapter II Chronological Developement of Pune City 2.1 Introduction Pune's location was once considered less conducive for urban growth. But now pune, the cultural capital of Maharashtra is rapidly metamorphosing into a commercial hub. This metamorphim has a very long history spannin over 1000 years or more. Pune, which has been hailed as ^'Happening City", has not only survived but it has also prospered continuously during the last 400 years. Up to the mid seventeenth century, Pune was one of the main small garrison town on the plateau of Maharashtra. Within a century, however, this insignificant small town outstripped the older established towns in its respective region and emerged dominant city (Deshpande CD., 1978). In the 19"^ and 20"^ centuries it had undergone significant changes and prospered in various sphers. Referred to as Oxford of East for its educational tradition and Detroit of India for its post independence industrial development, in the 21^' century, Pune is emerging as a '''Cyber City". The growth and development of Pune is quite interesting. It has seen many rise and fall in its long history under different rulers at different periods. The growth phases of Pune have been divided in to five different periods, so that one can understand the richness of its culture and reasons for its success (Parasnis D.B., 1921). Therefore an attempt has been made to study Pune city. 2.2 Urbanization at the Global Level In 2008, humankind achieved a moment's milestone for the first time in history; half of the world's population that is 3.3 billion lived in urban areas.

    © 2021 JETIR March 2021, Volume 8, Issue 3 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) INDUSTRIAL POLLUTION CAUSED BIOACCUMULATION OF HEAVY METAL CADMIUM IN FRESH WATER FISHES OF PAUNA RIVER, MAHARASHTRA I. M. Patil1, M. A. Patil1 Dada Patil Mahavidyalaya, Karjat, Dist-Ahmednagar-414402, MH, India. ABSTRACT: Effects of heavy metals on fish are multidirectional and manifested by numerous changes in the physiological and chemical processes of their body systems. 11 Nalas (drains) carrying the industrial and domestic waste in Pauna River from Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipal Corporation area. Metal Plating industries are the main source of cadmium pollution in river. Cadmium metal content were analyzed by Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (Perkin Elmer model No. 3030 USA) and values are expressed in ppm from water sample and various organs of two fresh water fish species Ompok bimaculatus and Puntius sarana sarana collected from four sampling sites on Pauna river. The maximum Cd content found in kidney (1.5ppm) was considerably higher than gill (0.65ppm), muscle and liver (0.60ppm) and ovary (0.5ppm). The Cd contents in the organs was in the order of kidney > gill > liver > muscle > ovary. The present investigation is useful to find out the indicators of cadmium pollution in river water habitat. KEY WORDS : Cadmium, Bioaccumulation, Fish organs 1. INTRODUCTION As a result of industrial pollution, many important habitats of fishes are lost. River Saraswati in West Bengal, Khan river at Indore, Ganga river at Kanpur, River Satluj in Punjab, Yamuna river in Delhi, Bhadra river in Karnataka, Panchganga at Ichalkaranji, Tapi river in Gujrat, river Krishna and Koyana in Maharashtra, Kuttiadi in Kerala are few examples (Trivedy, 2000).
