ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN

WATER QUALITY MANAGEMENT The Ground water table is 40m from the surface (in rainy season) to 45m (in Dry Season). In the mining lease area the flow of water is very low. The water from pit will be pumped by diesel pump of 5 HP capacities. The working at the end of third year will not intercept the water table. The natural gradient will drain out water from mine area in rainy season. Required rain water in the pit shall not discharge and shall be utilized for Water spraying, plantation, and other mining work. At the end of life of the mine the pit shall be used as water reservoir.

AIR QUALITY MANAGEMENT : Water sprinklers are proposed on haul road and at work place for dust suppression. Dust mask will be provided to the operator & mine workers. The source of air pollution is vehicular movement but the transportation will be towards the lower side hence the impact is not very much significant. Vehicular emission will be controlled and regularly monitored. Loading is also creating air pollution. Water spraying is proposed over the material before loading and transportation. Covered trucks will be used in transportation. Green belt will be developed to arrest dust pollution. Proposed mining is Semi-Mechanized and no processing/ grinding unit is proposed in the applied area, hence the air pollution will remain in permissible limit. For drilling wet drilling method will be used to control fugitive dust at source. Blasting will be done by covering blast holes with cement bags filled with sand so that chances of fly rocks will be minimized. Green belt development will be done to arrest dust pollution.

NOISE MANAGEMENT: The mining will be done by opencast method but some amount of noise will be generated due to operation of Dumper, and driller which will be deployed on hire basis for removal of overburden and due to vehicular movement. Transportation vehicles will be properly maintained and provided with good silencers. Precaution and regular maintenance of Dumper, tipper & Dumper replacement of damaged/ worn out parts when ever required will be taken. Ear plugs are being/will be provided to operator and mine workers. Trees will be planted which will attenuate the noise levels. Blasting will be done during day time. Blasting will be avoided in the morning and evening hours, on foggy days, at night time and at times of high wind velocity. All workers and other persons will be sent away in a safe zone prior to the blasting. Drilling will be done with the help of sharp drill bits. Trees will be planted along the barrier of 7.5 m along the boundary of mine lease area which will act as a buffer for noise. The greenbelt with species of rich canopy will further attenuate the noise levels. The main source of noise generation in drilling machine is compressor. Compressor will be fitted with an acoustic enclosure.

SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT: Waste dump: The waste overburden in the area is only intermixed soil. The total waste rock to be handled in five years is as follows. Volume of waste Taking Swell Factor Total m3 swell Year in M3 30% in M3 Vol. First year 1142 343 1485 Second year 1282 384 1666 Third year 1592 478 2070 Fourth year 1630 489 2119 Fifth year 1247 374 1621 Total 6893 2068 8961

The waste rock produced shall be loaded by Excavator & dumped by dumpers for its transportation to the reject dump yard & when required for making road, the waste material shall be used. Generation & Stacking of top soil: No Top soil proposed during five year. Generation & Stacking of Sub Grade Mineral:- It is also proposed to stack the Sub grade. The sub grade generated shall be collected in sub grade stack

yard and shall be then mixed with high-grade mineral for use in various industries. The Sub grade mineral shall be used in mixing in high grade to make marketable/Avg. grade. The retaining walls of rubble stone are proposed towards lower altitude side of the dump for stabilization. Green Belt Development: No trees are there in the area which will be uprooted during mining. It is proposed to plant a total no. 310 saplings per year on the non-mineralized area. The total proposed area is 0.7646 Ha. And survival rate 80% is expected; therefore 20% more saplings will be planted next year. A number of species will be planted suitable to this area of climate conditions like Neem, Babool, Khejari, Amal Taas, Vilayati Babool etc. Reclamation Plan: At the end of mine life 0.7862 ha. Area will be excavated which will be converted in to water reservoir & 0.2138 ha. Area will remain non utilized. Green Belt/Plantation will be done outside (near school, near temple) the lease area; because this lease area is surrounded by other leases by all four sides. SOCIO-ECONOMIC IMPACT: The mining activity will have positive impact due to direct and indirect employment and development of ancillary industries. No displacement due to the proposed mine extension/ expansion project. Approx. 18-20 local workers will have employment opportunities along with periodical training to generate local skills.
