The proposed project falls in Category 7(a) of the Schedule vide EIA notification 2006 amended to date involving preparation of Environment Impact Assessment study and Environment Management Plan. However general condition is not applicable to this project. This project is independent and is not linked with other projects’ which may attract directly or indirectly any provisions of schedule of EIA notification 2006 amended to date.

2.4 AIRPORT SECTOR PROFILE India’s transformation from an agrarian economy to an urbanized one is an inevitable consequence of GDP growth led by service sector and saturation of agricultural productivity. Air connectivity can ensure integration of such urbanizing areas with the rest of the country and national economy. Development of appropriate connectivity between robust urban agglomerations could check the influx of migrants to large metro and provide for more balance regional development. The civil air transport network has been called the Real World Wide Web. It has been observed that the improvement in air connectivity has brought tremendous benefits to users of air transport services by:

 Reducing time spent in transit

 Increasing the frequency of service

 Allowing for shorter waiting times and better targeting of departure and arrival times;

 Improving the quality of service, such as reliability, punctuality and quality of the travel experience.

India is the 9th largest civil aviation market in the world. In FY 2016-17, civil aviation sector witnessed a growth of around 20-25%.

Establishing or relying on railway / road networks for connecting such parts of the country may not be time effective or even viable (technically /financially). Also, while railway and road networks may be viable connectivity options to other parts of the country (not impacted by issues of terrain, security, etc.); air connectivity provides a key advantage in terms of time saving. The routes connecting Tier-2 towns / cities to Tier-3 towns / cities 1, only constitute about 7% of the air transport market in India in terms of seat deployment. While routes can be configured innumerous ways in terms of combination of frequencies, timing of the flights and aircraft sizes, a number of these routes are likely to witness traffic that can be better serviced using small aircraft such that the aircraft could be optimally utilized over the day as well as achieve viable PLF.

2.6 NEED OF THE PROJECT As per current traffic data, Vijayawada Airport handled 3.98 lakh passengers in 2015-16. As per traffic projection, the airport is expected to handle 14.87 lakh passengers by 2021-22. The existing terminal building is capable of handling 1.42 MPPA. Considering the rapid growth in Domestic Air Traffic and further to upgrade the

3.8 RESOURCE OPTIMISATION

The resource optimization is always pre-requisite for any development project. In quest towards resource optimization in proposed project, the tradition practices are substituted by modern practices involving water reduction, rain water harvesting, energy conservation etc.

As per the NBC, 2016, the per capita water requirement varies with building type. Measures have been proposed to reduce the consumption of fresh water through efficient practices and devices. Some of these practices include:

 Regulating flow rate of fixtures used in toilets.

 Dual plumbing system

 By installations of sensor-based urinals such as magic eye sensor, the water use is reduced to 0.4 liters per flush.

 A normal tap works at a flow rate as high as 20 lpm. Use of low flow faucets along with other water saving devices such as auto control valves, pressure reducing devices, aerators and pressure inhibitors for constant flow, magic eye solenoid valve, and self-operating valves can result in 25 – 50% of water savings.

 Rainwater harvesting for ground water recharge

5. PLANNING BRIEF

5.1 INTRODUCTION The purpose of this chapter is to present the Planning Concepts for Vijayawada Airport, in terms of both vision and reasoning. Therefore, several basic assumptions have been established, which are intended to direct the future planning of the Airport. These assumptions are supported by the aviation activity forecasts and include a commitment for continued airport operation, which supports local and regional needs. Airport planning and design primarily depends upon availability of land, its topography, orientation, accessibility, etc. Traffic is the other major factor that decides the size of runway, terminal building and other related infrastructure required for the proposed airport. The site and traffic studies have been discussed in the preceding chapters. Based on the site and traffic studies the planning and conceptual design of the proposed airport is discussed in this chapter.

5.2 PLANNING CONCEPT Aerodrome code of Vijayawada Airport is 4C. Aerodrome Reference Code is defined by the characteristics of the aircraft intended to use the airport. The parameters to categorize the Aerodrome reference code by ICAO are mentioned in Table 5.1.
