For M/s Ganesh Enterprises

Boulder, Gravel and Sand (Minor Mineral) Mining project at Village- Shamtoo, Mining lease area of 45 ha. (18, 00,000 TPA) in District- Panchkula, Haryana by M/s Ganesh Enterprises -ToR Regarding (IA/HR/MIN/72297/2018, MoEF&CC: J-11015/31/2018-IA. II (M))

Subject: Submission of reply for the project Shamtoo-2 Block-PKL-12 “Boulder, Gravel and Sand Minor Mineral Mining project at Shamtoo Village, Panchkula District, Haryana by M/s Ganesh Enterprises (45 Ha & 11,60,000 TPA)”

Query 1. - Plan and Sections clearly showing the area of mining/mining zone. The agricultural fields should not be included in the mining zone and only river bed area should be taken in account while determining the mining zone.

Reply – The contour plan and sections of lease area have been prepared based on the DGPS survey of river bed mining lease. Plan and section showing the lease boundary, agricultural fields, restricted area for mining, river creek, working mining area/mining zone i.e. Block -A and B, after excluding agricultural land and restricted area for mining (Block-C) are attached as Annexure -1

Query 2. - After determining the mining zone production quantity to be calculated and same needs to be submitted along with the sections based on which the production quantity is calculated.

Reply- Mining zone has been determined after survey of restricted area and agricultural land within mining lease. Available area for mining was calculated 193591.183 square meter. Density of mineral was considered for river bed matrix comprising of bounder, gravel and sand mineral as 2 g/cc (2ton/cum). The depth of mining has been considered 3m from ground surface of river bed.

Calculation for reserves:

(a)Total Geological Reserves = Lease Area (sq m) x depth x specific gravity of sand = 45 x 10,000 x 3 x 2 = 27,00,000 MT (b) Net Mining area = 19.3591 ha

(c) Mineable Reserve= Area of section × density of mineral × depth of mining = 193591.183 × 2 × 3 = 1161547.098 MT, say11,60,000 MT

(d) Targeted production (with 100% replenishment /year) = 11,60,000 MT

However, after 3m of mining from existing river bed profile, in subsequent years the mining will be done for replenished river bed material.

Sections has been attached as Annexure – 1 (Plan and Section), and Annexure – 2 (Surface geological plan and section). Reclamation plan and present land use plan are also attached as Annexure - 3 and Annexure - 4 respectively to show habitation and agricultural area within mine lease.

Query 3. - The project is located on non-perennial river bed and prior replenishment study report is required to be submitted at the time of consideration of projects for the environmental clearance to ascertain the annual excavation quantity. Thus, the proponent should submit the methodology for conducting the replenishment study.

Reply- Methodology for conducting the replenishment study: (As Suggested by MoEF&CC)

1. Baseline levels of the mining lease area will be taken by DGPS as mean sea level and reduced levels (MSL & RL). The entire mining lease will be divided suitably into 25m × 25 m grids with by laying cross-section across the width of river and along the direction of flow of the river. Each grid will be suitably numbered for identification. The base line levels (MSL & RL) of the corner points of each grid will be recorded. 2. Grids, where mine working shall be carried out will be identified, along with delineation of such grids, which cover area under no mining zone i.e. safety barriers from the river bank, safety barriers at lease boundary, restrictions areas as per condition of LoI/ Mining Lease deed, restriction as per Mineral Concession Rule of the Concerned State, restrictions as per sustainable sand mining management guidelines 2016 etc. 3. Replenishment study will be carried out on mined out area of the lease by observing ground levels at grid points(pillars) in two stages viz., (a) before commencement of mining operation preferably during pre-monsoon preferably during first week of June; (b) after the replenishment /deposition on river bed during monsoon preferably in during first week of October. 4. Actual replenishment will be calculated based on the level difference on each grid corresponding to levels observed during pre-monsoon and levels observed on same grid point after monsoon is over. The replenishment in any grid shall be the level difference in meter multiplied by the area of grid. Summation of replenishment for different grids shall be the total replenishment in the mined-out area for the particular period. No mining will be carried out during monsoon period. 5. Based on the replenishment after rains, the depth to which mining shall be carried out during post and pre-monsoon period shall be determined for each year of mining.

At the time of consideration of project for environmental clearance prior replenishment study report will be presented to EAC to ascertain annual excavation quantity.

Query 4. – Based on the production quantity transportation planning needs to be done and detailed transportation plan and route need to be submitted.

Reply – Based on the production quantity transportation planning has been done by estimating number of trucks required to transport mineral including transport route i.e. haul road and paved road like ODR, MDR, SH and NH nearby project area. Based on the production and 25 tons of dumper and trucks to be use 174 trucks per day will be required. If we consider mining operation 12 hours per day the traffic density will be increased by 15 trucks per hour. If we consider both incoming and outgoing trucks 30 trucks per hour will increase on present traffic condition. Calculation is presented below:

Total production = 1161547.098 TPA say 11,60,000 MT per Annum No of working days (Excluding 52 Sundays and 45 Rainy Days) 268 days Daily production = 4328.35 MT Vehicle required per day =173.13 say 174 Working time for mining = 12 hours Vehicle required per hour = 14.5 or 15 Considering to and from movement from mine to crusher, number of trucks /hr =30

Detailed transportation plan and routes superimposed on google earth image (Satellite image) and on survey of India toposheet including haul road paved road (MDR, ODR and state highway) are attached as Annexure 5 and Annexure 6 respectively.

Transportation planning has been done by haul road and paved road verification on site. Details of road configuration and distance from mine lease are provided in detail as below mentioned Table 1&2. Detailed map has been provided as Annexure 5 and Annexure 6.

Query 5. - A plan needs to be submitted clearly showing the mining leases in the upstream and downstream with their area and quantity.

Reply - The details of mine leases on upstream and downstream of the current mining lease (Shamtoo-2 Block-PKL-12) on river Dudhgarh ki Nadi with their mine lease area and village khasra details as per information sought from Department of Mines and Geology, Government of Haryana, is shown in Table 3. Production quantities are not shown for Khatauli and Sukhdarshan pur block because estimation has not done.

Reply - Kml file has been verified for mine lease area and working mine area excluding agricultural and restricted area. Revised kml file of mine lease as per khasra details and clear sections based on it are presented as Annexure 1 and Annexure 2.

Total area of mine lease was found 47.8 hectare whereas available area of mining excluding restricted area and agricultural field was found 19.3591 Hectare. Production quantity was calculated based on available area of mine and was found 11,60,000 TPA.
