The project is open cast mining of minor mineral in the form of Sand. 1070529 tonnes/annum- (Manually), 81108012 tonnes/annum- (Mechanical), Total Production:- 82178541 tonnes/annum.Sand will be excavated. Entire process of excavation will be combination of manual (for the sand Ghtas of area less than 5 hectare) as well as through semi-mechanized (for the area more than 5 hectare).
The project has been proposed by M/s. Broad-son Commodities Pvt. Ltd.. The project proponent had obtained mining permission for District-Patna, Bhojpur and Saran. As per the Notification issued By the Department of Mines and Geology, Bihar Government on date 22-7-2014 The Three Districts i.e Patna, Bhojpur and Saran has been considered as a unit.
2.3 Need for the Project and Its Importance to the Country or Region
Sand is used widely in the construction industry. It is mixed with cement and other ingredients to create mortar for building. It is also used in agriculture, as sandy soils are ideal for crops such as watermelons, peaches and peanuts. Sand is also used in Aquaria as it makes a low cost aquarium base material.
2.4 Demands-Supply Gap Creation of huge infrastructure as being envisaged by Government of India particularly in road and housing sector requires basic building raw materials. Thus the demand for Sand is ever growing with the growth of the infrastructure sector in our country. The requirement for the mineral is always high in the nearby cities and towns. Therefore there is always a good demand of the mineral in the domestic market.
Consultant-Ascenso Enviro Pvt. Ltd. Page 18 of 27 PFR for proposed Sand Mining Project of Area 1994.6 ha on Rivers of District-Patna, Bhojpur & Saran of State-Bihar
2.5 Imports vs. Indigenous Production The demand in the domestic market is high for Sand. Mineral is available in abundant quantity in allotted area and can be excavated indigenously. Vast quantities of sand are available in various river ghats of the respective the river stretches. Therefore import of sand is not required.
2.6 Export Possibility There is no proposal to export the mineral as the minerals excavated, cater to the indigenous demand and the development is a never ending process.
2.7 Domestic/ Export Markets a) DOMESTIC MARKET There is always an ever increasing demand of these minerals in the domestic market. b) EXPORT MARKET The proposed mining activity is for indigenous consumption only for real state, road making etc. So no export will be envisaged.
2.8 Employment Generation (Direct and indirect) due to the project
The total direct manpower requirement for the proposed mining operation will be around 500-600. Significant Indirect employment is also expected due to the associated activities. 3 PROJECT DESCRIPTION

The mine lease area is flat. There is no forest land or agriculture land in the mine lease area. The entire mining lease lies within the inactive channel of the bed of rivers, The existing land use pattern is dominated by agriculture which is followed by forests and barren land. The detailed land use pattern will be studied during baseline study.
4.5 EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE
The site has no existing infrastructure, except for connecting road for transportation.
4.6 SOIL CLASSIFICATION
The farming situations in the district are mainly dependent as soil, topography and irrigation systems prevalent in the area. The district has mainly four types of soils ranging from moderately well drained to poorly drained, acidic to slightly alkaline and medium to heavy textured. From the farming point of view only four types of soils may be recognized as light to heavy in texture.
4.7 CLIMATIC DATA FROM SECONDARY SOURCES
The district by and large is homogenous. It is of moderate type characterized by quite hot summers to moderately cold winters. The day temperature generally ranges from 21.1 ºC in January to 38.7 ºC in May and night temperature from 7.3 ºC in December to 27.7 ºC in June. The summer begins in April and peaks in June/July with the temperature soaring up to 43 °C till the moisture laden monsoon wind bring some much-needed relief to the parched fields. The rains last through August & September and continue into early October.
The normal annual rainfall in the district is around 1076 mm. The timely and well-distributed rainfall during Kharif and Rabi has a deciding influence on the land use and cropping pattern of the district.

5 PLANNING BRIEF
5.1 Planning Concept Mining will be done as per the guidelines of Bihar Mineral Policy, and guidelines of Bihar Minor Mineral Concession Rules (amended thereof) This is an open-cast mining project. Excavation of minerals will be carried out only up to a depth of 3 meter and 5 meter of safety zone will be left all around the lease area. Thus the lease area falling within this stability zone will be left as no mining area.
5.2 Population projection The project will employ most of the workers from nearby villages except for supervisory staff. Thus there will no increase in population due to the project. However, few people from other area may migrate in this area for employment directly and indirectly for business opportunities. Population projection as per last three decades population growth rate and addition in the existing population by the proposed project will be included in final EIA. 5.3 Land use planning (Break up along with green belt, etc.)
Mining will be done in slices starting from the topmost level progressively advancing downwards. The area so excavated will get filled up due to sediment inflow during monsoon. Plantation will be done near the civic amenities or road sides in consultation with the local authorities/Government body. It is not feasible to plant trees in the lease area. Native plant / tree species will be planted in consultation with gram panchayat and local forest officials.. 5.4 Assessment of Infrastructure Demand (Physical & Social)
Infrastructure like evacuation road, site services will only be required. Only local villagers from nearby villages will be employed for the mining activity. Thus no housing facility is proposed. 5.5 Amenities/Facilities The following facilities/amenities will be extended by the mine management: • Direct and indirect Employment, most of which most will be from nearby villages depending upon the suitability of persons required for the job. • Arrangements for safe and healthy working conditions & temporary rest shelters. • Provision of Drinking water.
