The Proponent and the RQP/Environment Consultant attended the 151st meeting of SEAC held on 19th, 20th and 21st October 2015 to provide clarification/additional information.

The committee appraised the proposal considering the information provided in the statutory application-Form I, Pre Feasibility Report, approved mining plan and clarification/information provided during the meeting. The committee observed already many no. of proposals from this village have been cleared by the committee. The committee therefore directed the proponent to get the details of all the leases & Notifications issued of Manchegowdanapalya village with the extent of lease area, lease Nos., latitude & longitude and distance between the boundaries (OUTER) of each lease area and to be marked on combined sketch plotted on a village map which shall be attested by a competent authority.

The Committee after discussion had decided to recall the proponent after the submission of the combined sketch of leases & Notifications as explained above.

The proponent and Environmental Consultant attended the 161st meeting of SEAC held on 28th and 29th March 2016 to provide required clarification/additional information.

The proponent has submitted the combined sketch during the meeting.

The committee reviewed the combined sketch and observed that in this area there are three cluster. This quarry area is falling in Manchegowdanapalya – Uragahalli cluster. In this cluster 11 proposals have been considered by SEAC for EC for total extent of 53-10 Acres and EC issued by the Authority. However the next proposal M/s. Robo Silicon Pvt. Ltd. (SEIAA 437 CMIN 2015) received to an extent of 15-00 Acres which will exceed the threshold limit of 62 Acres. Hence, ToR was issued for this proposal. Now this proposal for an extent of 2-00 Acres, the proponent requested the committee to consider this proposal as B2 category since the EC issued only for 53-10 Acres. However, Committee opined that the earlier proposal which is senior to this has already been classified as B1 and this proposal cannot be taken up as B2 category.

The committee therefore had decided to appraise the proposal as B1 and decided to recommend the proposal to SEIAA for issue of ToRs for conduct the EIA studies in accordance with the EIA Notification 2006 and relevant guidelines.

The Authority perused the recommendation made by SEAC and also noted that the proponent has submitted request stating that the sum total of lease area in their respective cluster have not exceeded 25 Ha and therefore they have requested to consider this project under B2 category. The Authority have therefore decided to forward the file back to SEAC to examine the request made by the proponent and send recommendation deemed fit based on merit and in accordance with law.

The proposal is therefore placed before the committee for further appraisal and decision.

The proponent and Environmental Consultant Sri. Dodda Mudde Gowda K.S (Obtained stay from the Hon’ble High Court of Karnataka) attended the meeting of SEAC to provide required clarification/additional information.

The committee observed that as per the revenue sy map a nala is running away from the boundary of the project site. Since it is a outflow of the existing water body the committee opined that this has to be treated as primary nala (Raja Kaluve). However the said nala has now been shifted and brought adjacent to this project site. The proponent has left 15 m buffer from the centre of the existing nala considering it as tertiary nala and accordingly the proposal was appraised, EC was issued by the SEIAA and construction work also started. 38

Proceedings of 170th SEAC meeting 18th, 19th and 20th August 2016

However as per the NGT order with respect to OA No. 222/2014 dated 04.05.2016 25 m buffer from the edge of the nala is to be provided if it is considered as teritiary nala otherwise 50 m buffer is to be left in case of primary nala. Since the building is already constructed and the expansion is only vertical it may not be possible to leave the buffer without demolishing the constructed building. The committee opined that the proposal cannot be taken up for appraisal unless the original alignment of the nala is to be restored as per the revenue records.

The committee after discussion decided to recall the proponent after submission of the following information:

1. The structural stability certificate of the building from third party agency to ascertain the load bearing capacity of the predesigned structure in view of the proposed construction above the already approved structure by the competent authorities. 2. In the earlier issued EC, the built up area is mentioned as 66,037.28 Sqm whereas the actual built up area as stated by the proponent is 42,277 Sqm. The discrepancy to be substantiated with supporting documents

Action: Secretary, SEAC to put up the proposal before SEAC after submission of the above information.
