He added that the locally affected people present at the public hearing can provide their opinions, feedback, suggestions. Then after, the District Collector and District Magistrate said that the forum was open for opinion/suggestions/feedback for the locally affected people. 1
During the public hearing the questions asked by the present local people as well as the answers given by the applicant's representative is as follows:
Sr. Name and The points represented Replies from No. Village Project Proponent 1 Jayeshbhai Gram Sabha meeting was organized by the Gajanandabhai people of Nargol and other nearby villages Baria, Nargol to discuss the proposed port and 34 issues Sarpanch, was decided and out of 17 major issues Nargol were separated and submitted it to MLA Ramanbhai Patkar. Mr. Baria requested him to represent these issues on behalf of the public, during the public hearing. Honorable Collector said that we will go only after hearing everyone. Everyone keep silence. 2. Magan Dakale He informed that the people today here are (Head of Kinara in difficulty. We are living here since Bachao Samiti ) British age. This land is of Government/CRZ. For this public hearing 2000- 4000 people were estimated but about 10000 people have come. Even without transportation, they have walked 20-20 kms. People are not explained about what is happening. Everybody including people and Sarpanch are confused. On our representation to Honorable Collector, he has heard us. And hope to solve our questions. 1200 houses are dwelling and what will happen to these houses, it is not mentioned in 600 pages report. And Fishermen’s livelihood depends on fishing business but these houses are not in their name. When fisherman’s sell their house they don’t do any documentation. Only panch decides. Fishermen are doing fishing of 146 crores. And crore rupees of income is generated. We all are not poor. We have not taken any money from the government nor have we asked for any jobs. Our farmers earn their income from farming. Alphanso of Valsad is produce here in our place. If you disturb the sea then the impacts due to waves cannot be prevented. The houses and farms will also be destructed. How the port would be built? During this project 600 acres land will be reclaimed for the development of port. Without acquiring land no port can be developed. Leave it to make fool to the 2
peoples. For reclaiming 1 acre of land 10 crore is required. 7000 crores will be required for developing 700 acres of land. They are making us fool. This port development is not possible in 5000 crores. This project cost is 4000 crores. We have to see whether Rs.4000 crores they have or not, if they have agency of Tata Motors only so from where will Cargo Motors collect money? Israel company is having 25% stake. It is not written if this company is going to give money. We won’t let a foreign company to come here. We are living happily. No objection if there is no help. No information given whether railway will come from Bhilad or Sanjan. If railway comes who will give the land to railway? There is no information. If port does not come doesn’t matter atleast do not steal what we have. 3. Mahesh Our Umbergam is Holyland of Parshuram Parshottam and no one dies hungry here. Our village Patel, Nargol peoples carry out fishing activity for their (Teacher) livelihood; if steamer comes because of port our fisherman will die hungry. How to go 25km away from sea shore and will survive. Under any circumstances we will not allow the port to come. Our Narendra Modi Sir talks about carbon credit and other side here our environment is snatched then we will sacrifice our life and I will be the first one. We will not allow coming port. 4. Mukeshbhai Here at sea shore two type of farming takes Machi place. One on seashore and other in sea. (President- This sea shore is known as Golden Macchi Samaj) Fisheries. Fish here are very costly. If port comes then industry will come. Its waste water will be discharged into sea. Fish does not lay eggs in deep clean water. Fish uses seashore to lays egg. If port comes the shore will be destroyed and hence fishes will also be destroyed. Flora-fauna and farming will be destroyed.

5. Rakesh Rai People in Umargam are very calm and Kamala Shankar understanding. These people are not Sarigam opposing development but we do not want (Member of development which destroys environment. Sarigam A year ago well water was used to drink and Panchayat) we have grown up but now we have to purchase water for Rs. 20. That is we have to drink RO water. Tadgam where there is no population, public hearing is arranged which is suspicious. Information available on website and on net is put up by Gujarat Maritime Board or Cargo Motors. It is of 500 pages. This information and given audio visual is difficult for people to understand. Even graduate person like me from English medium of Mumbai University is not able to understand then what will this village people understand. Then the people of this region are not able to understand. Gujarat Maritime Board officer and from Honorable Collector side should provide information that can be clearly understood. There should be gramsabha of only one issue all over from Dehri to kalai of Umargam Taluka in which Gujarat Maritime Board Officer and Representative of Honorable Collector and Representative of Cargo Motor comes, explain clearly in Gujarati visual. If people do not understand then what will they represent? This public hearing should be cancelled in interest of justice. How much land will be required? What compensation will be given to affected people? What will be done for land acquisition? Such information is not mentioned. There is no information related to road and railway line. Showing dreams to people of becoming millionaire but information regarding above is not given in EIA. If port is built at 12.5 nautical miles and reclamation is done, thereafter the impact of high tide water from Dehri to Kalai is not mentioned. Sir, you and GPCB do not convey opinion for this upcoming port and let the voice of our people reach to Government. This company talks about CSR activity but even big
4
companies in Sarigam are also not paying taxes. Pass the peoples voice to Gandhinagar and Delhi (MoEF) Honorable Collector said that till now five peoples has been represented. All other peoples are for their representations so for representation come directly and say name. We are not going to take any decision. All the questions raised are being recorded and your guidance/ suggestions / representation will be sent to Govt. of India through GPCB. 6. Rajeshbhai V. Everyone likes developments but why Keni this people have come we should know. Maroli. Even for construction of road (Gram Panchayat gramsabha permission is required then Sarpanch) why this mega project without gramsabha permission? In gramsabha villagers were asking question that what is information of this port? So previously I wrote letter to Honorable Collector and in reply we got collector office letter that there is no information of port. Our youngster going to Sarigam and Umargam asking for job are not given employment. In most of the company’s people from outside are working then what is the assurance that how many locals will be employed in this project. The fishermen sell their fish for 10 rupees to run their home. Our Ramanbhai is favorite leader. We request Honourable Ramanbhai Patkar to give justice and represent to Government. 7. Vinay Gulabchand According to EIA report we requested Seth, Collector that EIA report is of 600 Phansa Pages so organize public hearing after 2 months period but it is organized within month. EIA report is incomplete and misleading. After making central government committee of expert of this subject again EIA report must be made. In first phase no land is required but how many phases are there and then after no information is given how much land will be acquired. No information regarding other port in nearby region is there. About Boisar, Hajira, Pipavav port at what capacity are they running there is no information about it. If other ports are studied then I feel they are
5 running at low capacity. So there is no need for this port. On page number 4 proposed Delhi- Mumbai corridor is mentioned but Delhi-Mumbai is dedicated freight corridors is not mentioned. In addition there are no studies done on this. If compared with other ports of New Delhi Mumbai Corridor then economically not feasible. That is why Nargol Port is not required. On page no. 13 rail is going to acquire land inside 12 km, this information is not mentioned which is the land of farmers. Their acquisition in this EIA report is not been discussed. Railway line is not included in the EIA report. What about the land that will be acquired for rail corridor? What about compensation to farmer? There are no details regarding land requirement for railway. Umargam has been declared as a Schedule area under the Schedule-V of Constitution. Umbergam has got many important rights. And no discussion has been done about these rights. After gramsabha resolution further development work is recommended. That is why project is recommended to be cancelled. On page no 5.16 water which has to be obtained, it will be used from bore well and hence in our region we will have water problems. It will also pollute ground water and no solution for this is mentioned in the report. According to EIA report page number 7.54, there will be direct employment of 200-300 people and indirectly 2500 to 3000 people will be employed. So for this there is no need to waste money and destroy environment. This region is naturally rich and there is only need of farming, fisheries and animal husbandry business. The generations will keep on getting this wealth. If fishery businesses will be developed then more 200-300 will get employment. EIA report is
6
incomplete, false and misleading. Hence the EIA report and port should be cancelled. 8. Yatin Bhandari GPCB has conducted the public (Ex. Sarpanch of hearing at Tadgam. Today the date is Nargol) 13th which is a black date for Tadgam village. In the same village the polluted water was discharged from G.I.D.C. Sarigam. Due to this ample amount of ecosystem was destroyed. As a Sarpanch, approached the High Court and filed a petition, fought and won and now filtered water is released into the sea. Forest land of Nargol is under our people conservation. And without our consent it is being given to others. I have objection as a Chairman of Van Shakari Mandali. This port will lead to development of the country but this development will be at the cost of Nargol, Vankas, Saronda, Tumb, Tadgam, Umargam, etc. which will adversely affect on environment. Friends although we are uneducated but we are quite clever. And our objection is on this. Our objection is on acquisition of the Survey no. 97/98. It was shown on projector under CSR that work on new lake and work of school of Tumb, Saronda is done and Rs.25 lakhs is spent. But if we observe the work in the mentioned villages then no work has been done. CSR activity should be carried out along with the Sarpanch. Development is talking about money but it is false. If initially making such big fools then what will happen afterwards? There is no complete information provided for the port and that’s why we oppose the Public hearing of GPCB. And has to be declared as cancelled. If CSR activity is not carried out along with the villagers then we will not allow any survey.

9. Ashok Thakur He said that we request the Collector (Kinara Bachao that our opposition is for the port not Samiti) for the public hearing. The port should be cancelled. 600 page EIA report has been made. Has Regional Officer read it completely? There is no information about the livelihood of fishermen in it. There is no mention of rehabilitation of fishermen. As per information on page no. 5.1 there will be reclamation activity which will cause coastal erosion. Kalai, Nargol, Phansa,Tadgam, etc. will be immersed in sea. No information is given: how much land will be acquired for railways? How much compensation will be provided? etc. is not mentioned. No farmer is willing to give land. In the last 150 years in this place no thunderstorm has occurred and no koli and fisherman houses are neither relocated nor destroyed .So due to this development there is no information provided of hurricane and storms. If thunderstorm strikes the surrounding farms will be destroyed. On page no. 17 it is mentioned that more than 2 crore ton of coal will be unloaded in the proposed port but no information is mentioned in EIA regarding the particulate matter of coal which will spread over miles. And farming will be totally destroyed. In EIA 450 acres and 6.1km deep dredging will be done frequently, there will be storms in this region and due to this mangoes and chickoos farms will be destroyed. No information is mentioned what will be the effect on ground water due to reclamation and dredging of the sea and, we are also strictly opposing for that. We all are opposing the port. Honorable Collector said that this public hearing is for Nargol Port. Then let us discuss only about it. Represent your objection, why these questions? Is Mr. Patel going to give permission for the port? This public hearing is only to record your guidance / suggestion. GV Patel said that all your issues will be taken on record properly.

10. Shaileshbhai According to EIA report this port will Hodiwala be constructed by reclaiming inside the (Deputy Sarpanch, sea at 6 kms. Therefore 371 hectare of Nargol) area will be reclaimed in Nargol Macchi Samaj- coastal area. So plants and living President ecosystem will be destroyed. From Umargam to Kalai Phansa etc in this region there are 600-700 small mechanized boats. In one boat 6-7 people are there. So everyday 10,000- 15,000 fisherman get their livelihood. Hence because of port development fishermen will be at loss. The port mentions to give employment to 200 people. In this region fishes like Dado, Ghol, Pomfret, Lobster are exported and government gets profit. Due to port the shore will get washed away, waves will rise Because of this our livelihood will be destroyed. There is possibility that villages will be submerged under coastal water and there will be loss to village. We oppose the port. Honorable Collector said that the suggestion given by Shaileshbhai is good. There are many people for representation and it will take 2-3 days. I request that many points have been repeated. Now do not repeat and represent new issues so that everyone gets chance. 11 Jayprakash Here the area is having fertile Bhandari land/farms. Horticulture crops are (Ex. Sarpanch- grown. Rice like crops is taken here and Nargol) we earn our livelihood on it. Development of GIDC is going on in Umargam then why development of port? Nargol tourism, greenery and agricultural land of the region will be destroyed. In Gujarat one of the highest density of trees district and that too it is the most in my Umargam taluka. The kings of fruit alphanso, chickoo etc fruits are produced in plenty. And maximum income is generated. Due to port Alphanso mangoes of Valsad will be destroyed and production of chikoo will come to an end. Due to port 16km of sea will be destroyed. And the breeding area of jhinga, paaplet and bumbla etc will destroy. Farmers on
9
agricultural land and fisherman at sea cost build houses. Fishermen will be without houses. Farming land of farmers will be acquired for roads and rail then farmers will be without farm. And the details about land acquisition for railway line are not provided and for tat social survey study has not been done. Therefore we have objection against this port. 12 Keki Mistry, I was Captain at sea. Parsis have stayed Captain, Nargol for 1086 years in Sanjan/ Udwada. We do not have any information about port being developed. We haven’t spread our hand in front of anybody. Gurdeep Singh took permission from Anjuman but who is Gurdeep Singh, we don’t remember. He does not have experience of Port operation. Railway will come adjacent to my house. If the port is developed here, Agiyaree and temple would be washed away.If sea is reclaimed then from where will it come back? What will happen to these people if they lose their farming land and fisheries? Why you want to spoil Nargol beach? Cargo Motors will make coal stack yard in 64 acres, due to which people will suffer from TB. Had come to measure wind velocity in village to install windmill over house. You all come to my house. My house will complete 100 years in 2016. On 17th January 2010 of Mint paper in Mumbai in it, agreement is done between Israeli port and Cargo Motors. I have obtained a 45 pages project report in private from L&T. Now the report is 26 pages. Now in Sarigam quarry is hill now. From it stones will be removed for the reclamation in sea then our religious places in Udwada and Sajan will be washed away. Once reclaimed then from where from where will you get back sea. Shri. Ramabhai Patkar (MLA) told that if the port comes people will be millionaires and
10
billionaires. But in other areas of West Bengal, Punjab and Gujarat price of land is about 2 crores and bought flats, car and now on they have nothing. Farming has stopped. At present they are working as a peon and watchman for rupees 10,000 to 15,000. BDR will make 64 hectare coal stockyard. I request people here; there is a coal stack yard of 3MMTPA at Shiveri and Wadala. There is a hospital built nearby but only for TB patients. Sulphur Dioxide and Methane gas will be produced from coal. Methane gas which will be generated is not mentioned. Which is inflammable. It can catch fire anytime and is harmful to humans. Recently there was news that not even one bed is vacant in Shiveri. Today including patients, Doctors, and worker are living in compound and worker / doctor are dying. If this port comes tankers of 3lakh ton will come and crude pump will also come which will produce hydrogen sulphide gas and if there will be leakage in pump then gas will spreading Nargol , Daman, Dahanu village and it will immediately affect people. My aunt’s son resides in Hazira, and now he is scared to go out and if port comes my Nargol will turn evil. So that is why we oppose this port. 13 M.S. H. Shaikh M.S.Shaikh tried to raise points. (NGO, Olpad, Surat) Honorable Collector informed him that only affected locals can make oral representation. That is why you cannot give oral representation. But you can give your representation in writing. 14 Mukeshbhai He is our representative for Nargol, Macchi (Nargol) Umargam, Maroli. Lot of information of about port. Out of 365 he lives with us 120 days. Hence we request to allow MSH Sheikh to make representation. Honorable Collector informed that we are going as per Government Rules and Regulations. Local people will orally represent and outside people will represent in writing
11
15 Krushnakanth Honorable Collector cannot say no to Chauhan (Baroda) anybody to represent in public hearing. I want to speak a little on hearing and EIA. For hearing and EIA there is verdict of Honorable Delhi High Court. In 2010 there is order against writ petition no 9313-2009 was issued. In which, on page no 8 and 9, it talks about EIA notification guidelines. It is about public hearing and Environment hearing. According to the court, notification does not say about it and does not prohibit. People not staying near project can also participate in public hearing and can give their suggestions. You are head so you can decide. In addition he showed copy of high court order and insisted that outside person be allowed to represent. Honorable collector informed that it is mentioned in notification only affected people can make oral representation, whereas people from outside can give it in writing. 16 Sanjeev Bariya We file our opposition against the port. (Resident of coastal area) Honorable Collector said that we have noted this. 17 M. S. H. Sheikh, If the EIA notification and 600 pages of Surat report put in English on website, when it is going to affect livelihood of the 30,000 people doing fishing and 30,000 people will become unemployed themselves then how will they understand the 600 page report put up in English. If we are doing anything wrong let us know. If I legally translate each and every word of English into pure Gujarati and can explain fishermen then what wrong have I done? Environment is field of Science. Only pages will be kept in EIA report. In Ministry only minutes will be scrutinized. For such kind of reports a committee is formed in Ministry and 50 projects are scrutinized and each project gets only one minute. The process of permission for thirty thousand people will be given in one minute in New Delhi. Till now the company has not
12
give single answer. Which is incomplete justice procedure. Honorable Collector said that the hearing is not yet complete, so how can you say this is incomplete justice procedure. 18 Raman Patkar I have been asked to represent on behalf (MLA) of Fisherman and Sarpanch We have to see whether the Environment NOC has to be or not given to this port. Fishermen having pending question There is no information given on impact on fisherman and Environment in coastal villages by upcoming port. I have visited the Kochi, Kerala coast in the past where fishermen were living on the coastline and I did not observe any loss to fishermen. In Bombay fishermen need to go inside for fishing. Fishing, while 4000 boats from south Gujarat goes out to Porbunder, Veraval, Mangrol. In past I have written to Chief Minister for saving houses on shore in Veraval coast. There is no mention of how much effect will occur on the environment due to port development. There is no problem with the report. I don’t have any information about upcoming port. Where there is matter of Govt. of India, MLA will only be besides you. As a MLA if there is any loss to people then I will surely be with the public. And gave thanks. 19 Pharlok Gowadia The land to be acquired for roads which (Residential of is 23 acre land belongs to our trust. Out Nargol) of 10 acres of this land, income is generated by coconuts and other crops. Our trust and Agyari depends on this income. Government is demanding 10 acres from this land for road; I have come to oppose it. If the land is taken, our income will stop then what will happen to our community? If the coast gets destroyed the question of drinking water will arise. Whole village will turn saline. Before 1200 years in Nargol, Ataf Baheram Irashansha stayed for 600 hundred years in Sanjan. Fishermen have been living in Nargol from the
13
beginning. At that time the name of village was not known. Nargol name was given from Anargol (Pomegranate). We have been living here for 600 hundred years; there is requirement of members of Parsi community whereas you have come to take land of our religion and trust. In one hand government promotes Parsi community whereas on other hand you have come to acquire our trust land. An English medium school was opened in Nargol for the first time in 1908. 10 crore rupees has been given by government to Udwada on the other hand want to take land of Parsi for port. We want to help Nargol. Therefore we strongly oppose it. 20 Kanchanben Village people don’t have any (Taluka information about the port you are Umbergaon going to build. So you provide true Panchayat information about project and then President) organize public hearing. 21 Manvendra Many people came to India and did Kashyap oppression and went. Gujarat has a (Resident of coastline of 1600 km then why port Nargol) only at Nargol? Shift the port at other place. Develop other ports in Gujarat. We do not need port at Nargol. Do something for development of fisheries wealth. Fishes are exported from here. Make a fishing port. Develop farmers and animal husbandry. Provide employment to local people. There is no need of any other port. We need tourism and fishing port, we don’t need this port. There are four 20 year old jetties at Nargol Port which are broken at present, there is need repair them. GIDC was established, people from outside came. People of cargo motors are sitting like puppets. Not a single representative is discussing and nobody is speaking. Narendra Modi does chai pe charcha with one hundred and twenty five thousand million people. Here only fisheries port is required.
14
Must carry out Chai pe charcha with people of Nargol. We do not want this Nargol Port. Honorable collector informed that your representations/objections will be sent to Government of India, Delhi through G.P.C.B., And decision for this port will be taken by Government of India. I or GPCB do not have authority to take decision about port after public hearing. 22 Dinesh Machhi We are doing business of fishing since (Resident of 63 years. Do not require filthiness. We Nargol) get costly fishes like paplet, boomla, golden fish, titana, dado. This port will steal our fishery business. It will also raise a question on our livelihood. Because of that that we oppose this port. We are hearing since last 17 years about development of fishing port here, but till date no fishing port has come up. Not once but 17 times we have said that we do not need a port. People are having power in democracy but not government. Our livelihood will be snatched then intestine will strive (“Aatardi Kakadse”). And nothing good will happen in life. “Mit Marenge Mar Jayenge Bandar Nahi Babane Denge” (We will die but we will not allow build a port) “Humko Mita Sake woh Sarakar Mein Dum Nahi, Sarakar Humse Hain Hum Sarakar se Nahi” (Government has no power to destroy us, Government is there because of us, not are we for government.) “Hum Jhukenge Nahi, Bandar Hatake Rahenge.” (We will not steep, will remove port) 23 Magan Dakle We oppose the port. But, everyone (Kinara Bachao present here has a right to speak. Samiti) Whosoever wants to speak in support of the port can come here and speak. 24 Kosva Varazvan My native is Nargol, Honorable (Resident of Collector you are also District Nargol) Magistrate then also you are not allowing outside NGO advisor. We have already shown you the High Court order then also you have not allowed. This is contempt of Court. My son is a lawyer and I will convince him to file
15
PIL and you Honorable collector will be punished.
25 Jayeshbhai Baria On 4/1/2016, in our gram Sabha we (NargolSarpanch) have unanimously decided that Mr. Shaikh (Environmentalist) will represent for us in the public hearing. After representation by people Honorable Collector asked company representatives to reply to queries raised by people. Company representative Mr. Tarang Fajalia (Senior Executive) Ahmedabad, replied that total 171 Hectare of Land will be reclaimed. 143.5 hectare will be in intertidal zone. There will be no impact on the shore. In phase IA, Reclamation of 28 hectare will be done inside behind berth by using the whole dredging materials for making containment bunds, so that soil doesn’t spread elsewhere. Only existing road will be used, no new road is to be built. Care will be taken that no damage is caused to the environmental wealth due to the work. There is no proposed railway planned in Phase 1.When railway is required in phase IA, it will be developed by taking necessary clearances from concerned department. There is mention of railway in TOR but representatives informed that ToR is amended and Rail connectivity is not mentioned in that. Honorable Collector requested company to reply in Gujarati to everybody. 26 Manish Baria We request you sir, we don’t want to (Resident of understand anything, hence we don’t Nargol) need to listen explanation of Cargo Motors 27 Yatin Bhandari, Request was made to Honorable Rakesh Rai& collector, as the EIA report is difficult others for us and other village people to Nargol understand. It is a request to allow Mr. M. S. Shaikh as our representative to make representation on behalf of us. Honorable collector informed that we have gathered here for you. We are meeting on auspicious day of Sankranti. Representation of all approximately 23 people has been done, everything is being recorded and we will not take any decision here. You have emotions that port is required or not required, we will send to Government of India through GPCB. I assume that all the aspects of local people are over. All and Sarpanchs have emotions to allow Mr. Shaikh to speak, but what new will Mr. Shaikh add? Sarpanch of Maroli informed that we are informing Mr. Shaikh to make representation because our fishermen families are illiterate. They are without education. Therefore they are not able to speak. I am literate, so I can speak. Therefore Mr. Shaikh will speak on behalf of all of us. Collector informed that I did not expect such a sharp representation by you, yet, giving respect to the feelings of 4000 people, Mr. Shaikh will speak for five minutes and then public hearing will end. All have feelings that government is for public. Public Hearing has almost ended, I am giving five minutes to Mr. Shaikh, say do you agree? After representation of Mr. M. S. Shaikh, public hearing will be declared as over. 28 M. S. H Shaikh, The company wants to acquire forest Representative of NGO, Surat land for their office. In case land is company informed that required, first government land and then at present Israel and private land should be possessed and if Cargo Motors work not available then only forest land together.
16 should be used. It is mentioned in your EIA report that there isn’t any government or private land in Nargol. Representative of Village has government and private company informed that land, then why forest land is demanded? we have submitted How has this application reached application. We will do Gandhinagar without resolution of as per regulations of Gram Sabha? Cargo Motors says that government. We have this land doesn’t come in Scheduled not taken forest, only area, the same should be investigated. If application is done. GMB can show details of other ports such as Pipavav, Hajira, JNPT and others and also their expansion details, the ports falling in 90km such as Hazira and Adani port can also be shown. GMB port also brings coal, one is being developed of 300 hectares in Hazira, then why is Nargol Port is called? This port will be built in deep sea, therefore dredging will be required, and if it is done, water current will change and fishing will come to an end. Due to erosion, sea will have erosion and there is probability that Varoli river mouth may be blocked. The data given in EIA report are of only one year in fact, data of 15 to 20 years should be given, which are not provided. TOR has railway line but you have not given any information, regarding it. How will you do land acquisition, at market rate or government rate? The company manufacturing motor cars is going to built port, indeed, the activity of making port should be given to an experienced company and Israel Company associated with Cargo motors has also moved as per report I have received. In past black dust from other ports such as Dahej, used to spread, the same will also happen here in future.For Dahej, High Court case was filed. Fisherman is opposing the port. So no banks are giving loan to Fisherman As per EIA report, 20 thousand fishermen are affected. The boomla of this area are famous, which is exported in other
17 countries. If coal dust is spread on boomla, due to sticky skin nature the dust cannot be removed. And its export to other countries will come to an end. 20 lakh MTPA dredging will be done and the sea area where dredging material will be disposed contains rocks where large quantities of lobsters are present. The cavities will be filled so breeding will not occur hence lobster will not get. .They will also be destroyed. In EIA report, you say that there will be no waste water, but as per MARPOL act, when cargo chemicals arrive, before filling other material in them wont you need to wash the cargo? During handling of liquid cargo it is needed to be washed. There is no mention of treatment plant (ETP) for it. You are responsible for liquid waste. Will activity of cargo washing by representative of company not be carried out? Instead of port, tourism from Daman to Umbergam Nargol should be developed. The Jetty got broken 15 years earlier. All other places jetty has came-up, only Umargam is remaining. The government is not repairing it and they should also provide ice plants for fishermen. The fisheries survey carried out in EIA is performed very well, for which I thank you. But, there isn’t any survey of loss to fisherman due to port. As per EIA, 3 lakh ton Rubbles (Ruff stones) will be brought from quarry and filled to save forest, but what about the destruction due to cavity of land made to obtain for this rubble? And what will be its environment effects. There are so many ports such as Birla jetty, ONGC (OPAL) and LNT jetty, shell terminal, Honorable Collector etc. which are being operated in spare informed that capacity. We are thinking that government will make destruction doesn’t happen in other expenditure in area. Therefore, this Nargol port is Umergamtaluka for economically not viable and is not tourism in year 2016.

Annexure-I Ambient Noise Quality Data
Annexure I. Ambient Noise Quality Data The comparison of day equivalent noise levels (Ld) and night equivalent noise levels (Ln) with the respective CPCB stipulated noise standards for various land use categories. Based on the recorded hourly noise levels at each monitoring location, the day equivalent (Ld) and night equivalent (Ln) were calculated. Ld: Average noise levels between 6:00 hours to 22.00 hours. Ln: Average noise levels between 22:00 hours to 6.00 hours. The Day-Night (Ldn) equivalent noise levels were calculated using the US Environmental Protection Agency formula: Ld/10 Ln+10/10 Ldn = 10 Log [0.0416 {16 (10 ) + 8 (10 )}]
I.1 Day Equivalent Noise Levels (Ld) Ld ranged between 42.66 dB(A) at Project site during winter season in Residential zone to 51.52 dB(A) at Umbergaon GIDC during post monsoon season in Industrial zone. Day equivalent noise levels for all the three seasons are given in Table I-1.

Annexure-L Wastewater Management
1 Waste Water Management The following are the sources of wastewater generation from the Port. Estimated Sewage from Phase 1 and 1A will be around 45 and 62 KLD respectively. Oily Waste water from the areas such as equipment Workshop, Utility Building, Raw Water Pump House, Fire Water Pump House, fire station and, fuel station is estimated around 9 KLD and 19 KLD during Phase1 and Phase 1 A respectively. Dust Suppression water from coal stock yard containing mainly suspended particulates Rain washed roads and roof tops containing particulates.
1.1 Sewage Treatment Plant The sewage generation during Phase 1 and Phase 1A is estimated at 45 KLD and 62 KLD respectively. The generated sewage will be collected in the sewage reception tank located in the port premises. Then it will be transferred to the proposed 65 KLD STP located in the LSB. The STP will be developed on modular basis. The treated sewage will be used for greenbelt development. Raw effluent from the site shall be collected in an inlet chamber. For primary treatment, raw effluent shall be passed through grit chamber followed by screen chamber. The effluent free from large suspended solids shall be further allowed to settled in a primary clarifier. The sludge settled at the bottom of the Primary clarifier shall be sent to sludge dewatering facility. Primary treated sewage shall be subjected to biological treatment using activated sludge process. Mixed liquor from aeration tank shall again be clarified in secondary clarifier. The overflow of effluent from secondary clarifier shall be collected in an intermediate storage tank, while the settled secondary sludge shall be partly recycled to aeration tank and the balance shall be sent to sludge dewatering facility. The secondary treated effluent shall be pumped through dual media filter and collected in treated sewage collection tank from where it will be utilized for landscaping and green-belt development within the premises. Filter beds shall be used for sludge dewatering purpose. Filtrate shall be taken back to aeration tank. The sludge will be used as manure in green belt development within port premises as shown in the water balance given Figure 1-1:
The Domestic sewage will be treated in proposed Sewage Treatment Plant and Treated sewage utilized for irrigation & plantation purpose within port premises. The modular STP will be installed in phase manner. In first phase the 20 KLD capacity STP will be installed. The detail of proposed modular STP is given Figure 1-2:

drains covered by heavy duty slotted covers and the drain network terminating in the above said collection tank of HDPE located near the edge of the sheds for the truck to gain access and collect the filled up drums easily. The unit operations will be equalization by gentle floor level mechanical mixing followed by Oleo endless belt oil removal, physical chemical treatment, sedimentation supernatant filtration by pressure sand filtration followed by activated carbon filtration and the filtrate used for gardening and general washing. The sludge will be sent to GPCB authorized waste handlers. The collected oil will be sold to licensed oil mongers.
1.3 Wash water from Coal Yard and Approach Trestle The water used for dust suppression in the conveyor transfer points and the stockyards will get absorbed to the extent of the property of the material and remaining water will be collected through proper drainage. For this purpose the stockyard ground level will be provided with a slope in each stockyard from the centre to the sides. For collecting water draining out of the stockyards RCC toe drains will be constructed along the length of each row and interconnected to finally lead it to a settling pond. Water from truck cleaning/washing area will also be diverted through the proper drainage. Settling ponds will be constructed out of concrete. The settled materials will be retrieved and sent back to respective cargo stockyard. The water will be used for dust suppression.
1.4 Storm Water Management Properly designed drains on other uncontaminated area, quay aprons and traffic lanes will be constructed with sloping surfaces towards drainage pits and canals, conveying the storm water directly to the harbour basin. Open pits and canals will be provided with heavy duty galvanised steel grating designed to carry the heavy wheel loads of mobile cranes, forklifts, etc.

Annexure-P Greenbelt Development Plan 1 Greenbelt Development Plan With rapid industrialization and consequent deleterious impact of pollutants on environment, values of environmental protection offered by trees are becoming clear. Trees are very suitable for detecting, recognizing and reducing air pollution effects. Monitoring of biological effects of air pollutant by the use of plants as indicators has been applied at a local, regional and national scale. Trees function as sinks of air pollutants, besides their bio-aesthetical values, owing to its large surface area. The greenbelt development not only functions as foreground and background landscape features resulting in harmonizing and amalgamating the physical structures of the project in the surrounding environment, but also acts as pollution sink. Thus, implementation of afforestation program is of paramount importance. It will also check soil erosion, make the ecosystem more complex, functionally more stable and make the climate more conducive. With a view to attenuate noise propagation and mitigate fugitive air pollution impacts, it is planned to develop a greenbelt along the periphery of project site; wherever possible. Compatible species will be identified by CMPL for greenbelt development. Saplings will be suitably nurtured. Regular watering will be undertaken. Soil conditioning and fertiliser application will be undertaken. If required, suitable soil treatment will be provided to ensure good growth of tree cover. An area of 13 Ha during Phase 1 and an additional 2 Ha during Phase 1A of greenbelt will be developed in and around the proposed port along the roadside and on the vacant areas to reduce pollution as well as to improve aesthetic value within facility premises. Species recommended by horticulturists will be selected on the basis of air pollution tolerance index. Selection of the plant species will be based on their adaptability to the existing geographical conditions and the vegetation composition of the forest type of the region. During the development of the greenbelt within the project area, it has to be emphasized that those native plant species shall be planted which have good ornamental values and are fast growing with excellent canopy cover.
1.1 Objectives of Greenbelt Development Plan The Greenbelt Development has the following objectives: Enhancement of the overall environmental quality Provide a shelter belt around the port bulb for dust absorption Compliance of the conditions stipulated in the environment clearance Improve ambient air quality Conserve soil and moisture and provide healthy climatic conditions Increase aesthetic value Create awareness for environmental conservation and tree planting Provide adequate shelter and habitat to the local fauna Generate employment for the local people Protect human health and prevent pollution
1.2 Choice of Species The selection of plant species for the development depends on various factors such as climate, elevation and soil. The plant species should exhibit the following desirable characteristic in order to be selected for plantation: Should be fast growing and providing optimum penetrability
Greenbelt Development Plan Page 1 Should be wind-firm and deep-rooted Should form a dense canopy As far as possible, the species should be indigenous and locally available
Species tolerant to air pollutants like PM, SO2 and NO2 should be preferred Should be permeable to help create air turbulence and mixing within the belt Plants shall be preferably indigenous and would be native of the area Introduction of monocultures and alien plant species would be avoided to the maximum possible extent Plants shall: Be fast growing and attaining a height of 5 m or more in 3 to 4 years Have thick canopy cover Be preferably evergreen Have large leaf area index Be resistant to specific air pollutants Maintain species diversity Be able to attenuate noise generated within the area Be well adapted to the existing soil conditions As per the stipulations of MoEF&CC, greenbelt will be provided all around the landward side of port boundary. In the proposed greenbelt, about 66,667 trees will be planted with a density of about 4,444 trees/Ha. A capital cost of about INR 20.00 Million will be earmarked for this purpose.

1 Introduction Gujarat Maritime Board (GMB), a Government of Gujarat (GoG) undertaking, holds the power to manage, control and administer the intermediate and minor Ports of Gujarat. In 1995, GoG announced the Port Policy encouraging private partnership in development of new ports and integrating it with development of industrial, infrastructure and power sectors. Based on this policy, GMB identified ten locations viz. Dholera, Vansi-Borsi, Hazira, Dahej, Mithivirdi, Simar, Positra, Rozi (Bedi) and Mundra as feasible for the development of new ports, including one in Maroli, Valsad District. GMB has identified the Maroli coastal stretch in Valsad for development of an All Weather Port. In 1996, WAPCOS carried out a pre- feasibility study to ascertain the most desirable location for the Port; near Maroli. The study considered the stretch near Phansa, Saronda, and Umbergoan, near Nargol, apart from Maroli in Valsad District as alternative sites for development of an All Weather Multipurpose Port. As per this study, GMB has decided to develop a port in Nargol adjacent to Umbergoan and invited bids for private partnership in 2011. Cargo Motors Private Limited (CMPL) - India‟s biggest retailer of Tata Motors, along with Amaryllis Ltd - a subsidiary of Israel Port Development and Assets Company Limited (IPC) has successfully won the bid and awarded the "Letter of Intent" by GMB on August 30, 2012 to develop an All weather Greenfield Multipurpose Port in Nargol on Build, Own, Operate and Transfer (BOOT) basis.
2 Project Location The project site is located in Nargol Village, Umbergaon Tehsil of Valsad District in the State of Gujarat. The geographical coordinates of the proposed project site are: 200 14‟ 45.39‟‟ N Latitude and 720 44‟ 30.92‟‟ E Longitude. As directed by GMB no land shall be acquired for Initial phases of port facilities development at Nargol. Hence most of the facilities are planed on the reclaimed land. Total land requirement for Phase 1 and Phase 1A is about 175.5 Ha of which 171.5 Ha of land will be reclaimed land and 4.0 Ha will be onshore forest land. The survey nos. for the development of Logistic Support Building (LSB) are Survey No. 97 & 98 at village Nargol, which is classified under forest land.

3 Need and Justification of Project Development Ports are major gateway for the flow of any goods in and out of a country. Economic growth and technological improvements in fields such as commodity handling, Ship building, etc. are the major factors attributing to the development of Ports across a country.
3 Need and Justification of Project Development Page 2 Development of Nargol Port C1121113 Draft Comprehensive EIA/EMP report - Executive Summary RPE005 rev. 0
With the advent of liberalization policy in various industrial and trading sectors, involving Public Private Investments, economic growth of the Country is expected to be on the rise. Government of India (GoI) envisages increasing its port capacity to 3,200 million tonnes by 2020. Gujarat with its vast hinterland connecting Northern and Central states, contributes to about 30% of the total foreign trade of India. With its innovative approach and transparent policies, Gujarat Ports have achieved an annual growth rate of 17.5% in last five years and the port capacity has doubled from 125 million tonnes in 2001 to 273 million tonnes in 2010. India‟s first private port is located at Pipavav of Gujarat. The proposed port at Nargol will be catering for the requirements of industrial towns in Gujarat and nearby states. Based on the traffic forecast summary provided by PWC, various commodities proposed to be handled at Nargol port are Coal, Containers, Ro-Ro, Liquid cargo, Iron/steel, Project cargo, Fertilizers & FRM and Cement, break bulk cargo and other general cargos. Also, proposed Delhi Mumbai Industrial Corridor (DMIC) with a major industrial area identified at Valsad district augments much for the development of port at Nargol. The investment and industrial regions identified in Gujarat along with DMIC are shown in Figure 3-1.

6 CRZ Compatibility Institute of Remote Sensing, Anna University, Chennai has carried out demarcation of High Tide Line (HTL), Low Tide Line (LTL) and Coastal Regulation Zone (CRZ) for the project site. Based on the survey, CRZ set back lines were demarcated and the project layout was super imposed on CRZ map. Nargol Port developmental Area falls in CRZ III, CRZ I (B) and CRZ IV(A) and the activities proposed in the CRZ area are permissible as per CRZ Notification, 2011 as it requires waterfront and foreshore facilities. Proposed LSB complex is falling outside the CRZ Area.
7 Analysis of Alternatives
7.1 Location/Site Alternatives Initially five sites along the coastal stretch from Phansa till Umbergaon were identified for developing the port facilities. Location of alternative sites on the Google Satellite imagery is as shown in Figure 7-1. The following alternative location/site were considered and analysed. Alternative Site 1: Adjacent to Umbergaon Alternative Site 2: Near to Nargol Alternative Site 3: Near to Saronda Alternative Site 4: Near to Maroli Alternative Site 5: Near to Phansa
Figure 7-1: Google imagery showing the location of Alternate Sites Above Five locations were assessed on basis of Environmental, Social and Technical aspects. Based on the analysis, alternative site no.2 near Nargol is found most suitable. This site with no mangroves and least social issues turns out to be most viable site. Hence port development at Nargol is recommended.
7.2 Alternative Port Layouts The final layouts for Phase 1 and Phase 1A have been selected based on detailed analysis of different layouts on the basis of Environmental, Social and Technical aspects.

9.3 Socio-Economic Conditions The socio-economic profile of the project influence area was established through compilation of Valsad Statistical Hand Book-2010-2011, District Socio-Economic Statistics-2012, Thane, Census data 2011 and available secondary data for assessing the Project Influence Area (PIA) profile. Two districts i.e., Valsad and Thane (Palghar)1 covering a total of 40 villages fall in 15km PIA radius. 30 villages are getting covered under Umbergaon Taluk of Valsad district, whereas 09 villages (Sambha, Achchhad, Amgaon, Dongari, Dhimniya, Girgaon, Vevji, Borigaon and Jhai) are falling under Talasari Taluk and 01 village (Bordi) is falling under Dahanu Taluk. Total population of these 40 villages is 2,71,028 covering 11,210 - SC Population and 1,18,580 - ST Population As per the data, out of the total population 39.96% are workers and rest 60.03% are non- workers. The main workforce population is 88.29% and 11.70% is marginal workers. Literacy population of the study area is 69.02% There are 155 primary schools; 32 middle/upper middle level schools and only 01 college in Umbergaon taluk. Also, medical facilities in the form of 02 government hospitals and 08 government dispensaries are available at Umbergaon taluk.
10 Anticipated Environmental Impacts and Mitigation Measures Anticipated impacts on the environmental and social attributes, which are likely to arise due to construction and operation of proposed project have been identified, predicted and evaluated.
10.1 Construction Phase Projects developmental activities such as Site development, reclamation, civil construction and mechanical erection works, Material transport & other construction activities, development of onsite infrastructure, environmental management facilities and back up area etc., are likely to cause impacts on terrestrial environment.
1 On 1 August 2014, the Maharashtra State government announced the formation of the 36th district of Maharashtra, when a new Palghar District was carved out of the old Thane district. As per this, Talasari and Dahanu taluks are falling in Palghar District.
10 Anticipated Environmental Impacts and Mitigation Measures Page 9 Development of Nargol Port C1121113 Draft Comprehensive EIA/EMP report - Executive Summary RPE005 rev. 0
Capital dredging, reclamation, dredge spoil disposal and development of offshore structures will result in disturbance to marine environment. MIKE 21 was used for dredge spoil disposal studies. Suitable disposal ground was identified at water depth greater than 20 m to 25 m with a spatial extent of 4 km x 7 km. The average thickness of the deposited dredged spoil would be restricted to 0.3 m. The sediment concentration plume was observed to be more than 1 g/l immediately after dumping which reduces to 0.4-0.5 g/l within few minutes after dumping. Moreover, the concentration level reduces to 0.1-0.2 g/l within 1 hr after dumping and reaches the background value (reduces to negligible levels) in less than two hours after dumping. Most of impacts during construction are short-term in nature and will cease on completion of construction activities.
10.2 Operation Phase The operational phase impacts due to all components of the projects have been identified, predicted and evaluated. Some of the models used for prediction of impacts are given below. GENESIS model was used to examine long-term shoreline change due to the proposed breakwater and reclaimed area at shore. It is an elaborate one-dimensional numerical model, which simulates changes in shoreline position due to spatial and temporal gradients in longshore sediment transport. From the model it is observed that erosion takes place over a stretch 3.8 km towards north of proposed reclaimed area of port and 0.9 km of accretion towards south of proposed reclaimed area of port. Also, simulated result from the model indicates erosion at the average rate of 4m/year adjacent to the north of proposed breakwater and accretion at rate of 1.4m/year adjacent to the south of proposed port. The rate of accretion and erosion has reducing trend alongshore on either side of the proposed reclaimed area of port. Mitigation measures such as sand bypassing from accreting area to eroding area, as appropriate shall be carried out to maintain the stability of coast. TELEMAC-2D of the TELEMAC modelling was used to conduct the Hydrodynamic study. Based on the study it was concluded that the opening of the port is towards south and the risk due to current was found to be minimal. The maximum cross current in channel was found to be in the order of 1.8 m/s. Also, an alternate approach was adapted by providing trestle instead of approach bund to allow free flow of water in the leeward side of port. This is primarily to comply with MoEF suggestions given during ToR Meeting. SISYPHE model was used for the sediment transport study to get the annual sea bed evolution. It was observed that both erosion and accretion can be anticipated along the channel due to variation in the water depth. Moreover, significant amount of deposition was observed on the lee side of the northern side of north breakwater. The areas along the shorelines on either side of the proposed port show insignificant variation in the sediment transport pattern. An annual maintenance dredging of 2.1 MCM can be anticipated for Phase 1 and 2.65 MCM for Phase 1A. It was observed from the results that the average concentration in the range of 0.3 to 0.5 g/l near the vicinity of the port. AERMOD, a „near-field, steady-state‟ Gaussian model was used to predict the incremental concentration of air pollutants at the receptors in the study area. Results show that predicted incremental/resultant concentrations are within the NAAQS. All wastewater discharges from the projects will ensure discharge standards stipulated by GPCB/CPCB.

The model studies with approach trestle reveals that there will not be any changes in the hydrodynamic near the river mouth due to the construction of port. Similarly, it is found that the proposed structures will not alter the wave pattern near the river mouth. Hence, it can be concluded that the development of port will not have any influence on the existing morphological process near the river mouth No impacts on the mangroves are

Shoreline on either side of port developmental area Shoreline evolution model indicates that the accretion on the south side of the port will not extend beyond 1km and will not have any impact on the Varoli River mouth which is located about 4.0 km from the proposed development. In addition, the analysis of Hydrodynamic result with and without the proposed development revels that there will not be any changes in the hydrodynamic near the river mouth due to the construction of port. Similarly, it is found that the proposed structures will not alter the wave pattern near the river mouth. Hence, it can be concluded that the development of port will not have any influence on the existing morphological process near the river mouth. 11.

11 Additional Studies
11.1 Risk Assessment Risk analysis study was carried out to assess risks associated with the construction and operation of the proposed Nargol port. The risk assessment thus carried out also provides inputs for formulating the onsite disaster management plan (DMP). The Risk Analysis covered the following. Hazard Identification including potential release events and Failure Frequency Consequence modelling of release rate and damage distances Risk reducing measures
11.2 Disaster Management Plan The Disaster Management Plan (DMP) is aimed to ensure safety of life, protection of environment, protection of installation, restoration of production and salvage operations in the same order of priorities. For effective implementation of DMP, it should be widely circulated and a personnel training is to be provided through rehearsals/drills. A framework for DMP was prepared to minimise damages in the event of a disaster. An On- Site Emergency Preparedness Plan and Off-Site Emergency Preparedness Plan including Oil spill contingency plan were prepared to deal with emergencies and prevent disasters. An institutional framework with clear assignment of roles and responsibilities was broadly prepared with which location of Emergency Control Centre and Assembly Points is identified. Communication system and alarm systems for effective communication in the event of a disaster are identified. DMP for natural hazards such as cyclones was prepared. Mutual aid scheme, composition of District Level Emergency Committee and aspects relating to community involvement for dealing with off-site disasters were prepared.
11.3 Social Impact Assessment This assessment is specifically addressing the potential impacts which will be generated as a result of proposed development of Port. It states the following: There will not be any land acquisition for the Phase 1 and Phase 1A port development and hence no R&R is envisaged. The impact on nearby settlements during construction phase will be due to air pollution and the noise generating activities. However, the activities are limited to the construction phase and will cease upon completion of the construction. Dust suppression measures such as sprinkling of water and suitable enclosures around the high noise generating areas within construction area will be provided. Detailed Studies on impacts on fishery resources, socio-economic background, issues pertaining to fishing community, mitigation measures considering various socio economic impacts due to the proposed project were carried out by Former Principal Scientist & Head, Crustacean Fisheries division, CMFRI, Kochi. During the construction phase, the proposed Port is expected to bring an employment for 2000 people on direct basis and around 5000 people on indirect basis and 200 – 300 people on direct basis and 2500-3000 on indirect basis during operation phase

Based on the capacity analysis for Daman – Nargol road can cater traffic until the year 2040 with the current lane configuration considering only 5% of port traffic will use this road. Bhilad – Sarigam – Saraipatak Nargol road can cater traffic till the year 2027, with the current lane configuration, it has to be widened into a four lane road by 2028.It is assumed that this road will carry 35% of the port traffic Bhilad – Sanjan road (SH-5A) can cater the traffic until the year 2025,it has to be widened into a four lane road by 2026 .It is assumed that this road will carry 50% of the port traffic Talasari - LC-66 & Amagaon- LC-68 road can cater the traffic till 2040, considering only 10% (5% Each) of port traffic will use this road. Based on the capacity analysis, existing roads can cater traffic till 2025. Hence it can be concluded that the existing roads are sufficient to cater the port traffic in the Phase 1 and Phase 1A. In general, Based on the traffic forecast existing 2-lane configuration with paved shoulder will cater till 2025 and 4-lane will be required by 2026. As the existing roads are proposed to be used as access roads to Port during Phase 1 & Phase 1A then safety and traffic management aspects has been suggested.
12 Environmental Monitoring Programme Environmental Monitoring Programme for construction and operation phases of project has been formulated. The Environmental Monitoring Programme for Both Terrestrial and Marine environment covers the technical and network design of monitoring including measurement methodologies, frequency, location, etc., and budgetary estimates. The budgetary estimate (Capital cost) for Environmental Management up to Phase 1A is INR 645.30 Crores; this
12 Environmental Monitoring Programme Page 21 Development of Nargol Port C1121113 Draft Comprehensive EIA/EMP report - Executive Summary RPE005 rev. 0 includes equipments, utilities/facilities and services which have been considered in the overall project cost. Over and above, additional amount estimated for Environmental Monitoring and Capacity Building is around INR 4.56 Crores. The annual budgetary estimate during operational phase is INR 2.70 Crores.
13 Environmental Management Plan The effective implementation and close supervision of the environmental management to mitigate the environmental impacts, which are likely to arise due to the construction and operation phases of the project will be best achieved through a suitable institutional mechanism. During construction and operational phase, Project proponent will adopt an Environmental Management System (EMS) that would be developed on guidelines similar to that of ISO 14000. The objective of such EMS will be to establish a system to assess, monitor and manage environmental performances, which can be used to promote continued environmental improvement and the prevention of pollution
14 Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) As a responsible developer towards the development of social economic conditions in the vicinity of the Project, CMPL proposes to implement the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) plan in the project area. Based on the gap assessment within 15 km radius from project site, the following areas were identified for improvement as a part of CSR: Education Health Care Sustainable Livelihood Infrastructure Development The capital budget earmarked for first 5 years for the CSR initiatives is in the tune of INR 7,00,00,000/- (INR 70 Million). The CSR plan is proposed to be implemented Phase wise.

Annexure-R Disaster Management Plan including Oil Spill Disaster Contingency Plan
Annexure R Broad Framework of Disaster Management Plan (DMP) covering Oil Spill Contingency Plan (OSCP) The objective of the DMP is to make use of the combined resources of the project facilities and the outside services to achieve the following: Provide the framework for an integrated multi-agency crisis response to a significant disaster incident within the Port Clarify specific roles and responsibilities Port community preparedness for any emergency incident Provide members of the port community affected by a significant emergency incident with o Timely advice o Safest possible environment during the resolution of the incident Initially contain and ultimately bring the incident under control Reduce the adverse impacts of an emergency incident on personal, business and provide a management framework for the sub plans and associated specific response plan Provide continued education review and testing. Effective rescue and medical treatment of casualties Safeguard other people Identify any dead Provide for the needs of relatives Provide authoritative information to the news media Secure the safe rehabilitation of affected area Preserve relevant records and equipment for the subsequent inquiry into the cause and circumstances of the emergency.
R.1 Causes of Disaster Disaster arising from human activities and shipping incidents o Handling and storage of materials o Collision of ships o Grounding of ships o Sinking of ships o Oil spillage Disaster due to natural calamities o Cyclones o Floods o Earthquakes o Tsunami System failure, design deficiency, bad operating practice, sabotage resulting in o Fire o Explosion
R.1.1 Categorisation of Emergency Any emergency situation has to be first categorised as an onsite emergency or an offsite emergency, the difference being that the effects of the onsite emergency are confined within the premises while those of an offsite emergency spill over beyond the port premises or even beyond the project site premises. Thus, the onsite and offsite emergency plans are detailed below:
Page R-1
R.1.1.1 Onsite Emergency Plan The plan would have the following components: Formulation of Disaster Management Plan and Emergency Services Organisation Structure Roles and Responsibilities of Emergency Teams Communication Emergency Control Centre Alarm Systems & Assembly Points Mutual Aid Scheme Onsite Emergency Plan and Rehearsals Spillage & Contingency Plan Formulation of Disaster Management Plan for Cyclones
R.1.1.2 Offsite Emergency Plan The components of an offsite emergency plan would include: Identification of location of hazardous or dangerous substances, personnel and emergency control rooms Technical information such as chemical and physical properties, dangers, etc. Background information, past accidents, control techniques and effects of hazardous materials of relevance Identification of facilities and transport routes for materials if any Contact for further advice such as meteorological information, transport, temporary food and accommodation, first aid and hospital services, water, etc. Establishing communication links including fire fighting materials, damage control and repair items Detailing emergency response procedures Notification to public at large Evacuation arrangements Press / media handling Addressing longer term environmental clean-up.
R.1.2 Onsite Emergency Plan
R.1.2.1 Formulation of Disaster Management Plan and Emergency Services The assessment of the risks and hazards leads either to improvements being made at the installation in the form, for example, of additional safeguards or better procedures, or the decision being taken that the risk is sufficiently small to be accepted.
Page R-2
The Disaster Management Plan must be related to the final assessment and it is the responsibility of the CMPL management to formulate it. The plan will include the following elements. Assessment of the magnitude and nature of the events foreseen and the probability of their occurrence Formulation of the plan and liaison with outside authorities, including the emergency services Procedures for raising the alarm and communication both within and outside the port Appointment of key personnel and their duties and responsibilities (organizational structure) Emergency Control Centre Action on site and Action off site
R.1.2.2 Organization Structure The first few minutes after the incident / accident are invariably the most critical period in prevention of escalation. Therefore, the personnel available at or near the incident site (and often responsible for or carrying out that particular activity) and on a round the clock basis play a vital role in an emergency. This concept is made use of in nominating the KEY PERSONS. In each hazardous location it is necessary to nominate a functionary as the "Incident Controller" who is invariably a shift-in-charge of the facility. The Incident Controller tackling the emergency in real terms requires support from various other services e.g. fire & safety, medical services, security, engineering, administration, technical services covering communication, transport and personnel functions, etc. A KEY PERSON for each one of these services, therefore, should be nominated. The "SITE MAIN CONTROLLER" (SMC) will be the Unit In-charge. The various controllers selected to carry out the work will co-ordinate with the SMC through the functional KEY PERSONS at the incident site. The KEY PERSONS will generally be at the site of incident and the CONTROLLERS will report at the EMERGENCY CONTROL CENTRE. The duties and responsibilities of various KEY PERSONS AND CONTROLLERS will be written down ensuring no grey areas or overlapping responsibilities. Various Controllers will be drawn from the organisation and clear-cut responsibilities will be spelt out for the following controllers: Operation Controller Maintenance Controller Fire and Safety Controller Communication Controller Environment Controller A Succession chart will be developed as above nominating second-line controller who would act as controller in the absence of any of the above officials. An emergency organisation chart is as follows:

(ii) Site Incident Controller (Shift in-charge) Establish Emergency Control Centre and inform SMC Ensure availability of Controllers/Team members Priority decisions for strategy for development of resources for incident control Periodic assessment of actual disaster zone and resource deployment (own / external) Periodic status report of SMC Seek help for: o Fire Fighting o Medical Aid o Rescue o Transport o Traffic Arrangement o Law and Order Inform the following authorities about the incident through zonal/sector authorities: o District Collector o Superintendent of Police o District Environmental Engineer o District Health Officer o Inspector of Factories o Neighbouring Installations
Page R-4
Establish contacts with the following, through controllers: o Superintendents of nearby hospitals o Chief Fire Officer of nearby fire services o Insurance Company o Establish First Aid Centre through Safety Coordinator Establish Information Centres
R.1.2.4 Emergency Co-ordinators Logistics Coordinator: The duties and responsibilities in the event of any emergency include: Report at the affected area to the SMC & SIC Arrange to attend all maintenance jobs as instructed by SIC Ensure that all essential services like power, water etc are maintained without interruption Ensure adequate manpower availability at the affected area Reporting all the incidents to SIC Arrange for all the tools, materials at the site of emergency Communication Coordinator: Responsibilities include: Report to SMC & SIC Removal of non essential personnel from the emergency area in consultation with SIC Contact with SIC and arrange for necessary facilities Control over entry and maintain law & order and arrange for police help in consultation with SMC Liaison with external agencies in consultation with SMC Co-ordination of transportation requirements for moving personnel for first aid, evacuation, rehabilitation etc. Maintenance of inventory systems in the Emergency Control Centre Safety Coordinator: Responsibilities include: Immediate Reporting to SIC Co-ordination with Security officer and security personnel Ensure availability of all safety equipments at site Co-ordination of all rescue operations Co-ordination of availability of first aid to all injured personnel Advice to SIC on fire fighting operations Ensure availability of necessary antidotes/medicines
R.1.2.5 Communication An essential component of any emergency preparedness programme is the communication links for gathering information needed for overall co-ordination e.g. emergency control centre with in-house as well as outside emergency services. Too much reliance on the telephone system Fixed lines/ Mobile phones is risky as it can soon be overloaded in an emergency situation. A computer with internet and printer facility and photocopying machine, wireless networks, fax, intercom units are recommended for higher reliability. - Help line numbers will be setup for emergency related queries The description of the tasks and responsibilities, reporting place, etc. for each key functionary will be, as far as possible, so drafted as to reduce the communication needs
Page R-5
between the interacting groups and permit good mutual understanding and well co-ordinated independent actions to tackle emergency situations.
R.1.2.6 Emergency Control Centre The emergency control centre should be established separately for port and should be equipped with the following: An adequate number of external telephones. If possible, one should accept outgoing calls only, in order to bypass jammed switchboards during an emergency. An adequate number of internal telephones, Radio equipment/pager system. A layout plan of the facility showing: Location of possible spillage/fire points. Sources of safety equipment and other fire-fighting system elements. Escape Routes. A nominal roll of employees at the facility. A list of KEY PERSONNEL with addresses, telephone numbers, etc. An adequate number of personnel protective/safety equipment available on site / back up in warehouse or with other member groups of mutual aid programme. Locations of various fire fighting arrangements at the facility.
R.1.2.7 Alarm Systems The emergency (due to fires or spillages) should be initiated by the first person noticing it by activating the fire alarm from the nearest call-point or by contacting the fire control room immediately on the internal telephone in case of any emergency. If in the opinion of the shift in-charge in consultation with the fire safety officer, the severity of the emergency is such that it can primarily be coped with by CMPL’s own resources (aided by fire fighting appliances from the fire brigade, if required) the siren code for ONSITE CRISIS will be sounded through the hooter. The siren codes for distinguishing between an ONSITE & OFFSITE CRISIS will be clearly established. The onsite/offsite siren codes should be informed to the neighbouring population of the facility.
R.1.2.8 Mutual Aid Scheme Assistance in terms of equipment and manpower will be taken from other neighbouring installations under a Mutual Aid Scheme/Zonal Disaster Management Plan.
R.1.2.9 Evacuation plan for Emergency and Assembly Points In order to manage emergencies more effectively, decision makers may benefit from having in-place evacuation plans for scenarios which are most likely to happen, even though real- time design or re-evaluation of evacuation plans may be required after the disaster strikes. Based on the disaster scenarios, pre-warning for sudden/onset of disasters can leave enough time for evacuations prior to the event. In case of natural disasters the probability of their occurrence and effects is one of the influential factor. Seasonal disasters, even if sudden, pose lesser problems than non-seasonal disasters so evacuation plans can be in place for either situation.
Page R-6
Building Evacuation: As soon as the pre-warning is given the first step is to evacuate the building. The Evacuation action plan which includes following steps to follow during a disaster: On the sound of an alarm, begin immediate evacuation In case of fire, activate the nearest pull station and call Emergency Evacuate via the nearest stairwell or grade level exit Go to your pre-determined Evacuation Assembly Point/Shelter Area If trapped by smoke, stay low, cover your mouth with wet cloth, stay near a window Open it but do not break it, hang something out the window to let fire personnel know you are there and put something in cracks around the door, phone emergency if possible These layout maps showing exit routes will be placed at all important places also pamphlets indicating same will be placed with the First Aid Kit Be familiar with the location of first aid kits, fire alarms, and extinguishers, as well as persons with first aid skills DO NOT USE THE ELEVATORS Site Evacuation: The process involved in the evacuation from the source is as follows, Identify the area vulnerable to disasters to which the evacuation plan will be applied Identify number of shelters surrounding the source of origin Identification and choice of the evacuation routes A Figure Showing (Figure R-1 and Figure R-2) the Emergency Assembly Points (No.1 to 8) and the road network connecting each Emergency Assembly point are prepared based on: Location of various activities planned in proposed project area, Location of free space in the plan along the nearest main exit route, Some assumptions made based on its criticality
Figure R-1: Emergency Evacuation Plan and Location of Assembly Points Near Shore Area
Page R-7
Figure R-2: Emergency Evacuation Plan and Location of Assembly Points OffShore Area Best assembly point can be identified during the disaster by proper planning within the Emergency Team. The basic idea is to use an algorithm for finding the paths in the network from the disaster area (origin) to each shelter (destination). The route with the smallest travel time and based on the capacity of evacuation associating to each path will help to evaluate each route with one another. Assembly point No.1 will cover the area Logistics building, Receiving Substation and canteen, No.2 for Container parking yard, Operation Building, workshop and Fuel Station, No.3 & 4 is for RO-RO Storage area, General cargo storage area and Rail terminal, No.5 will be for Coal Stockyard area. Assemble point No: 6 is for Container storage and Operation building at Offshore area near the berths, No.7 is planned exclusively for Container Storage area and the Last assembly point No.8 will be for marine side exit. Seven possible emergency exits and respective routes are recommended for facility (a separate seaside exit No.7 is planned for the emergency in the Berth area), and among the 7 exits Emergency Exit No.3 & 4 is suggested to be open only during emergency situation. The Emergency exit routes are made on assumed disaster influence area consideration. Each route is mentioned by different colour codes (viz. pink, blue, yellow, green and orange). It will be insisted to all those who gather at the emergency assembly points, to take a route of specific colour to reach the exit during emergency conditions. Diversion of group of employees from each assembly point will help in reducing time than diverting individuals or smaller groups towards exit during disaster. Escape routes are arranged such that from each area, escape is possible in two directions.
R.1.2.10 Onsite Emergency Plan and Rehearsals Once the emergency programme is finalised, it should be made known to all personnel so that each one knows his or her role in the event of an emergency. The plan will be regularly tested through the rehearsals, at a regular frequency and updated accordingly.
Page R-8
R.1.2.11 Mock Drills and Training Mock Drills: Mock drills on the overall emergency response plan may be carried out once in 6 months to ensure continued familiarity of the Key Personnel with the emergency procedure and to check if the hardware infrastructure provided for emergency management is in good condition. "Occupational Safety and Health Association" (OSHA) recommends visit of the emergency controller (Incident controller) to the Emergency Operations Centre once every three months, to familiarize with the facilities available. Training: The key personnel will be required to undergo a special training programme to understand clearly their role in On-site emergency management and to develop the skills required for the purpose. Most of the employees are to be given “Basic Fire Fighting” training, for operating portable extinguishers in an emergency. The rest of the employees including supervisory and management personnel will be required to undergo this course. Also, the emergency response team members will be required to undergo annual training including refresher courses on the following areas: Use of specialized protection equipment including practical drills Emergency communication Fire fighting using equipment like fire hydrant, portable pumps, monitors etc. Any other specialized training commensurate with the defined role Information on the extent of spill Measures to contain spill to a limited area Measures to remove oil Measures to dispose the spilled oil. Mock drills will be carried out to test the effectiveness of the contingency plan.
R.1.3 Management Plan for Natural Hazards CMPL shall develop a customised Disaster Management Plan (DMP) to cope during disasters from natural calamities such as cyclones, Floods, Tsunami, storm surges and earthquakes, etc. Proper planning can reduce the potential damage from disasters in terms of losses to human lives, assets, and environmental damage and rehabilitation costs. Risk associated with cyclone, Tsunami and storm surges are likely to be significant for Port Operations.
R.1.3.1 Disaster Management Plan for Cyclones/Floods Nargol Port is located in the Valsad District of Gujarat. River Varoli and River Tokar are flowing in the study area and the Daman Ganga River is also present in the Umbergaon Taluk. Good rainfall is reported in the Valsad district. As the project region is prone to cyclone and Flood, the DMP for the same is prepared. Community awareness should be built up so that people respond effectively to the flooding. Persons living in the low lying parts of floodplains, areas below unsafe. Some aspects of flood planning and response are:- Issuing warnings at the local levels Participating in flood fighting by organizing work parties to repair Embankments or clear debris from drainage areas, pile sandbags
Page R-9
Stockpile needed materials Facilitating agricultural recovery Planning emergency supplies of flood and clean drinking water To conduct trainings on search and rescue for Search and Rescue Terms formed at District, Taluka and Village level from time to time The rough weather operations will be controlled in three stages: Green Status – The operations of loading / unloading will be carried out as planned. Yellow Status – This is an alert stage indicating possibility of rough weather. Still operations can be continued with all emergency precautions Red Status – Emergency situations or rough weather; operation will be suspended. Activities controlled by in-charge of emergency operations. The vessel / tanker are to be moved to safe anchorage or will be advised to proceed to sea. The main components of the DMP for cyclones will include the following: Pre-Disaster (or Pre-Cyclone/Flood) Plan On (or During Cyclone/Flood) Disaster Plan Post (or After Cyclone/Flood) Disaster Plan Pre-Cyclone/Flood Plan Pre-Cyclone/Flood Measures: Port will maintain and exchange information continuously with the local IMD authorities for continuous updates of meteorological conditions in general and emerging / predicted weather phenomenon such as cyclones in particular. Upon issue of a cyclone warning by the IMD, the management would immediately initiate the Pre-Cyclone Measures. The Department of Ports and District Collector of Valsad would be informed of the imminent cyclone. All Port officials dealing with operations and disaster management will be informed. Pre-Cyclone/Flood Exercise: On signalling of a cyclone alert, the Control Room will be manned 24 hours a day for disaster management. The ‘Weather Signals’ depending on the data available about the cyclone and it’s threat perception will be informed to all personnel. The marine side operations will be regulated as per the rough-weather classification and will be continued with all emergency precautions. The different personnel of Port would assume their roles and responsibilities as previously identified for disaster management. The standby arrangement for power supply will be checked. Pre-identified ‘Rescue Centres’ will be kept ready. A pre-alert will be issued regarding suspension of all operations in case of emergency and to await instructions regarding the same. All Port Crafts and Ships will be fully secured inside the harbour area. Communication system including standby arrangement will be tested for working condition. Vehicles involved in rescue operations will be checked for working condition. Port crafts to be engaged in rescue will be kept in readiness. The safety in the project area will be ensured. The following Flood warning messages will also be given: Flood Alert – Flooding is possible Flood Warning – Flooding of homes, businesses and main roads is expected Severe Flood Warning – Severe flooding may cause Imminent danger All Clear – No Flood Alerts or Warnings are in force When a flood warning message is received, an Emergency team In-charge shall alert relevant agencies. The following advice shall be given to the Public:
Page R-10
Flood warning: 'GO IN, STAY IN, TUNE IN' Stay calm Ensure that neighbours know of the warning, and be prepared to help them Monitor local radio Make a flood kit: medications, warm clothing, sealed food, blankets, matches, candles, flashlights, portable radio, spare batteries, rubber gloves, personal documents During Cyclone/Flood Plan: The emergency alarm siren will be raised as per the ‘Alarm System’. All personnel will be evacuated except essential operational personnel and personnel dealing with disaster management. The cargo handling operations will be suspended. The vessel will be moved to safe anchorage or will be advised to proceed to sea. Power supply will be disconnected and alternative power supply will be restored in essential operational areas. Port Crafts and Tugs will continue to be in readiness for rescue. Depending upon the scale of potential flooding, the following steps shall be taken: Care of evacuated, hurt or homeless people Protecting of utilities Availability of transport Flood alleviation e.g. clearing blocked culverts and drains Providing emergency health advice Providing road barriers and signs Coordinating emergency support Post Cyclone/Flood Plan: This would be the rescue and rehabilitation stage after passing of the cyclone. The damages would be assessed and rehabilitation work initiated to restore operations at the earliest. The records of the events during the cyclone will be maintained and reviewed for possible enhancements to the DMP. The important Do’s and Don’ts after Flood There is a possibility of spread of water borne diseases after flood, and hence medical treatment should be taken immediately. Do not go near the riverbank even after the floodwater has receded. Sprinkle medicines in the stagnant dirty water. Check properly all the electric circuits, floor level furnace, boilers, or electric equipments like motor pump etc. Check whether any inflammable or explosive item has not entered along with the floodwater. Switch off the main electric supply, if any damage is noticed to the electric equipments. Sewerage system should be checked and any damage should be repaired immediately so as to curtail spread of diseases. Check gas leakage which can be known by smell of gas Rescue work should be undertaken immediately after flood situation as per the instruction. Do not follow any shortcut for rescue work.
R.1.3.2 Management Plan during Tsunami The management plan for likely emergency of Tsunami is addressed below: Characteristics: Tsunamis are a series of enormous waves created by an underwater disturbance such as an earthquake, landslide, volcanic eruption, or meteorite. A tsunami can move about 500 miles per hour in the open ocean. Once the wave approaches the shore, it builds in height. The topography of the coastline and the ocean floor will influence the size of the wave. There may be more than one wave and the succeeding one may be larger than
Page R-11
the one before. Tsunami waves and the receding water are very destructive to structures. The Tsunami warning is issued on earthquake having intensity of more than 6 on Ritcher scale. Documentary Record to be maintained Port Authority shall prepare and maintain the following documents: A tsunami hazard map graphically shows damage-prone areas with expected degrees of damage caused by possible tsunami A map showing inundation depth and probable inundation areas of port area shall be prepared. Evacuation maps shall be prepared and placed in the port premises Display of evacuation route on inundation maps Warning/Confirmation Early warnings/confirmation from the following sources shall be carefully examined: Meteorological Station TV and radio News

Medium: Between long and short. Long: Adequate time is available for evacuation after tsunami warning (until a ship is under safe conditions such as offshore evacuation, landing and lashing etc.). Land evacuation: Crew members take refuge in a high land area because evacuation by ship is anticipated to involve a high degree of risk. Also prevent the outflow of ships and exercise safety precautions regarding dangerous goods. Offshore evacuation: Ships evacuate to deep and wide offshore area outside the jetty (if there is no time for offshore evacuation, ships should wait). Landing and lashing: Crew members land small ships such as port crafts/tug boats and lash them to prevent from being washed away by tsunami. Use of engine: Crew members start the engine of an anchored ship to drive, if necessary. Attention to conditions: Although crew members do not take evacuation measures, they pay attention to changing conditions and take measures for ship safety until the cancellation of tsunami advisory.
R.1.3.3 Earthquakes Apart from all design and structural measures, following are important for management of earthquakes: Before Earthquake: All employees shall be familiar with the location of first aid kits, fire alarms, and extinguishers, as well as personnel with first aid skills. Site evacuation plan and emergency assembly points shall be available at all locations. During Earthquake: Do not panic Inside a Building: Take cover immediately under a desk, table, or chair, in a corner away from windows, along a wall in a hallway, or in a structurally strong location such as a hall by a pillar.
Page R-14
Watch for falling objects such as light fixtures, bookcases, cabinets, shelves, and other furniture that might slide or topple. Stay away from windows. Do not run outside. Do not dash for exits since they may be damaged and the building's exterior brick, tile, and decorations may be falling off. Do not use the elevators. If fire breaks out, drop on the floor and crawl towards the exist Outside a Building: Remain outside, preferably in a vehicle. Stay clear of electrical wires, poles, trees, or anything that might fall. After a MAJOR Earthquake: Listen to radio, TV and other media for Government Announcement Examine walls, floors, doors, staircases and windows to make sure that the building is not in danger of collapsing Do not enter into the unsafe or risky houses or buildings The site emergency controller shall: Check for injuries to personnel in your area. Do not attempt to move seriously injured persons unless they are in immediate danger. Render first aid assistance if required. Check for fires or fire hazards, spills of flammable or combustible liquids, or leaks of flammable gases. These activities must not significantly delay departure from the building or put the Evacuation incharge in danger. For small isolated spills, use spill cleanup procedures as outlined in Laboratory Standard Operating Procedures. If SOP or chemical spill cleanup kit is not available, then evacuate lab and notify authorities. For larger spills, evacuate building and notify authorities. Turn off ignition and heat sources if properly trained and it is safe to do so. Shut off all gas sources if trained to do so. Exit the building, if possible, and go to the EAP to report on injuries, damages, and potentially hazardous conditions. Take emergency/first aid kit and personal belongings. Switch off electric lines
R.1.4 Oil Spill Contingency Plan As per the recent “Guidelines on elements of facility Oil Spill Contingency Plan” provided by Indian Coast Guard vide Chairman NOSIDCP Circular No: 02/2012 dated August 09, 2012, every owner or operator of facility, oil installation or offshore installation is required to maintain an oil spill contingency plan duly approved by the Indian Coast Guard. Oil Spill Contingency Plan for Proposed Port is addressed in this section. An Oil Spill Contingency Plan (OSCP) will outline the steps to be taken before, during and after a spill. An OSCP covering the following aspects will be prepared: Hazard Identification Vulnerability Analysis Risk Assessment Response Actions. Hazard Identification: All conditions which can lead to an oil spill will be identified and necessary information to react to a spill under different conditions will be studied. Vulnerability Analysis: Vulnerability analysis will help to identify the resources and communities which could be affected due a spill and accordingly they can be informed or
Page R-15
quick measures can be taken so that it results in minimum damage. Information on the following will be collected as a part of vulnerability analysis: Public safety officials Schools, nursing homes, hospitals and prisons in the area Recreational areas Special events such as festivals and when they occur Ecologically sensitive areas specially areas susceptible to oil or water pollution. Risk Assessment: Based on hazard identification and vulnerability analysis, the extent of risks involved will be assessed. Response Actions: Response actions will provide information on all the immediate actions that will be taken in the event of a spill. It will have information on the following: Measures to prevent further flow of oil Measures to prevent ignition Agencies responsible for clean-up effort Information on the extent of spill Measures to contain spill to a limited area Measures to remove oil Measures to dispose the spilled oil Project Proponent will provide tugs and pollution control equipments at the incident site, if the spill occurs within the port limits. Project Proponent will be responsible for the review and maintenance of OSCP and for maintaining marine oil pollution response preparedness. Mock drills will be carried out to test the effectiveness of the OSCP.
R.1.4.1 Organisational Response
R.1.4.1.1 Response Preparedness The overview of organisation response preparedness is given in Figure R-4 below.
Page R-16
Figure R-4: Organisation Response Preparedness Indian Coast Guard is designated as the competent national authority for oil spill response in the maritime zones of India. Project Proponent will keep the Coast Guard Regional Commanders informed and request for any additional assistance through Regional Communication/Operations Centre. Indian Coast Guard will be assisted by the Commander Coast Guard Region (West).
R.1.4.1.2 Regional Level Support/Response The Regional Pollution Response Officer (RPRO) will be the On Scene Commander (OSC) and act as the representative of the Regional Commander to co-ordinate all activities at the scene of pollution through relevant District Commander in the vicinity of the region/area. The On Scene Commander will pass on regular reports to the Regional Headquarters and the Coast Guard Headquarters, of his assessment, and of the resources and assistance required. The Coast Guard District Commanders will designate an officer as Pollution Response Officer (PRO) for the district who will act as the Deputy On Scene Commander (DOSC) and lead the initial response team to the scene of incidence within the area of jurisdiction under the overall guidance of the RPRO. DOSC will be responsible for the following: Directing the employment of needed resources for prevention of pollution, containment, cleanup, and disposal of any pollutants, and restoration of the site Providing a focal point of information for all agencies concerned
Page R-17
Collecting samples for possible analysis and reporting Preparing cost analysis and detailed report covering all aspects of the spill
R.1.4.1.3 Project Proponent Response Project Proponent will provide tugs and pollution control equipments at the incident site, if the spill occurred within the port limits. Project Proponent is responsible for the review and maintenance of OSCP and for maintaining marine oil pollution response preparedness.
R.1.4.2 Response Tiers Spill response is based on a number of levels or Tiers. Each Tier is defined according to the level of resources committed and support agencies. Tier 1: Small spills or remote spills of non-persistent oils Response will be managed by Project Proponent Potential for environmental harm is low Tier 2: Medium sized spills which will be handled by Project Proponent to some extent with assistance from Coast Guard Coast Guard District Commander will provide assistance and ensures overall control Potential for environmental harm is low to moderate (local damage or short-term damage) Tier 3: Larger spills and close to sensitive resources Response will be beyond Project Proponent capability to handle Response will be managed by Coast Guard District Commander with Regional Coast Guard/Indian Coast Guard Potential for environmental harm is high
R.1.4.3 Reporting and Activation Reporting and response activation consists of four procedures: Reporting of the incident Assessment of the situation and determination of the appropriate level of response Activation of the Incident Management Team Establishment of an Incident Control Centre
R.1.4.3.1 Initiating Response The proposed response initiating procedure is shown in Figure R-5 below:
Page R-18
CMPL- President
Figure R-5: Response Initiating Procedure2
R.1.4.4 Reporting Procedures
R.1.4.4.1 Receiving External Records Reports of oil spills or sightings of oil on the sea may come from a variety of sources. Personnel receiving an external report of a spill must: Oil Spill Report shall be filled immediately on observation of the spill Obtain as many details of the incident as possible. Immediately pass the report details to the Harbour Master.
R.1.4.4.2 Staff and Contractors All Staff and Contractors must report spills, incidents that may result due to a spill, or observations of oil on the sea, to the nearest Supervisor or Person in Charge (PIC). The Supervisor/PIC must report the incident and all known details to the Harbour Master by telephone or radio.
R.1.4.4.3 Harbour Master Harbour Master (HM) upon receipt of information about a spill the HM will:
2 ERG: Emergency Response Group; IMT: Incident Management Team
Page R-19
Obtain all information available from the observer Prepare a POLREP and send it to: - Project Proponent - IC, IMT - Coast Guard Note: The Incident Controller may notify Coast Guard. Coast Guard should be notified (via POLREP) of any spill of oil or chemicals to the sea regardless of the potential Tier of the response. This will ensure that personnel and equipment are on standby.
R.1.4.5 Marine Response Methods The following marine response methods are available in case of an oil spill: Containment and recovery Application of dispersants from vessels Shoreline protection
R.1.4.5.1 Containment and Recovery The procedure of containment and recovery is as follows: Identification of the oil spill Containment (boom deployment) Recovery (skimmers) Temporary waste storage (on-deck storage, barges etc.) Waste transport and onshore waste receiving facility Project Proponent will provide the necessary oil spill combating equipment like tug with booms and skimmer and adsorbent pads which will be stored at a conveniently identified location in the facility.
R.1.4.5.2 Use of Dispersants Dispersants will be used immediately to reduce a fire/explosion risk posed by a spill. However, dispersants will only be applied after approval has been given by the Incident Controller.
R.1.4.5.3 Shoreline Protection The shoreline protection methods include: Diversion booming to either deflect oil from a protected shoreline or to collect oil onto a low sensitivity stretch of shore Exclusion booming to prevent oil entering areas Shoreline barriers such as sandbag, sand or earth dams or barriers along the shore. Use of adsorbents to protect beach surface or associated fauna
R.1.4.5.4 Shoreline Response Methods The following shoreline response methods are available in case of an oil spill: Natural Recovery Manual Removal of Oil and Oily Debris Use of Sorbents to Collect Liquid Oil
R.1.4.5.5 Natural Recovery Oiled shorelines may be left to naturally recover if:
Page R-20
It cannot be cleaned due to lack of access or other factors. Cleaning will not result in any net environmental benefit, i.e., - Cleaning will cause more damage than residual oil. - Recovery of affected biological communities will not be speeded up by cleaning communities. Weathering or natural removal of the oil is expected to be rapid.
R.1.4.5.6 Manual Removal of Oil and Oily Debris Removal of oil and oily debris using manual labour is an efficient but slow method, applicable to most shoreline types. This method also tends to result in better selection of oiled substrate and consequently less waste than mechanical methods.
R.1.4.5.7 Use of Sorbents to Collect Liquid Oil Loose sorbents or sorbent mats can be used to facilitate the manual or mechanical removal of liquid oil from shoreline. Sorbents may also be applied to oiled areas to reduce slippery conditions.
R.1.5 Offsite Emergency plan Under the Environmental Protection Act, the responsibility of preparation of Off-Site Emergency plan lies with the state government. The Collector/ Deputy Collector are ordinary nominated by State Government to plan Off-Site Emergency Plan. The District Collector or his nominated representative would be the team leader of planning team, who shall conduct the planning task in a systematic manner. The members of planning team for off-site emergencies are Collector / Deputy Collector, District Authorities in charge of Fire Services and police and members drawn from Medical Services, Factory Inspectorate, Pollution Control Board, Industries and Transport. In addition to these members, there are Co-opted Members also from district authorities concerned, civil defence, publicity department, Municipal Corporation, and non-official such as elected representative (MPs, MLAs, voluntary organization, non- governmental organizations etc). Off site emergency plan shall be prepared based on consultation with district authorities & district disaster management plan. Off-site emergency plan would follow the on-site emergency plan. When the consequences of an emergency situation go beyond the Port boundaries, it becomes an off-site emergency. Off-site emergency is essentially the responsibility of the public administration. However, the management will provide the public administration with the technical information relating to the nature, quantum and probable consequences on the neighbouring population. The components of an offsite emergency plan would include: Identification of locations of hazardous or dangerous substances, personnel and emergency control rooms. Technical information such as chemical and physical properties, dangers etc. Background information, past accidents, control techniques and effects of hazardous materials of relevance. Identification of facilities and transport routes for materials. Contact for further advice such as meteorological information, transport, temporary food and accommodation, first aid and hospital services, water etc. Establishing communication links including fire fighting materials, damage control and repair items. Detailing emergency response procedures.

Annexure-T Shoreline Study Report
Annexure T Shoreline Study Report Shoreline is a fringe of land that represents the dynamic boundary that separates the shoreline from the continual impact of waves, winds, surge, and tides. This boundary evolves over timescales of hours (e.g., changing tides or wave conditions) to decades. Alongshore sediment transport takes place when waves approach obliquely to the shore and eventually break. The wave breaking releases energy which brings sediment into suspension and alongshore littoral currents transports the sediment. Sediment transport is a cyclic process in which sediments are transported to and from the coast. The cycle of sediment transport by the waves to and from the coast is continuous which has aided in maintaining the equilibrium of the coastline over the geological times. The shoreline/coastline changes such as erosion/accretion is usually expected due to the construction of marine structures such as breakwaters, groynes etc and reclaimed area at the shore. The natural setting if disturbed by construction of breakwaters or dredging a channel to deepen locally the seabed, causes imbalance in sand movement along the coast. Several published literature was reviewed to study the prevailing coastal process in the vicinity of the project site to understand the sediment dynamics and shoreline change. Literatures published by Chandramohan and B.U. Nayak (1992) have been reviewed. From the review of the mentioned literatures, it was observed that sediment transport between Umbergaon and Valsad is towards south from October to April and northwards during the rest of the year. The estimated annual sediment transport rate at Umbergaon and Valsad area is given below Table T-1. Table T-1: Estimated Annual Sediment Transport Rate Places Northerly (106 m3/year) Southerly (106 m3/year) Umbergaon 1.523 0.386 Valsad 0.980 0.594 In addition, temporal analysis of shoreline positions to study changes in coastline was also carried out and the Google Earth satellite images are available for the dates February 02, 2010 and April 04, 2013 are shown in the Figure T-1. The significant detail that can be delineated from the analysis of the figures is that the study area is mainly influenced by the tide with high tidal range. During low tide, a large part (about one km cross shore) of land body is exposed, creating tidal flats during which wave actions and other coastal processes near the high waterline will be absent. From the geophysical survey data, it is observed that the study area is comprised of rocky bed. The same can be seen in Figure T-1.

Figure T-1: Google Earth Satellite Analysis of shoreline change and prediction of shoreline behaviour in the presence of coastal structures have become important for integrated coastal zone management. The shoreline occurring between land and sea is dynamic which undergoes short term and long term geomorphological changes under the influence of nearshore coastal hydrodynamics. These changes to the coastal morphology are cyclic which have continued over the years. Coastal structure similar to a groin or a breakwater/reclamation, when introduced into the sea interrupts wave-induced littoral sediment transport in the direction of flow. The obstruction of sediment transport leads to sediment built-up and acts as platform for evolution of shoreline. The coast downstream of obstruction has deficit sediment supply thereby leading to erosion. These aspects are studied individually in the context of proposed developmental activities which is detailed in the following section. To assess the impact of construction of the proposed port on the adjacent coast, a site specific study/prediction of shoreline changes is carried out. This study aims to find the shoreline evolution due to the construction of the proposed port. The proposed port will be developed in such a way that berthing area is around 6.1 km away from the shoreline and the backup area is connected with the berthing area by approach bund and approach trestle. GENESIS Model GENESIS was used to examine long-term shoreline change due to the proposed breakwater and reclaimed area at shore. GENESIS is an elaborate one-dimensional numerical model, which simulates changes in shoreline position due to spatial and temporal gradients in longshore sediment transport. The model considers the motion of sediment as uniform over
Page T-2
the entire active profile between two well-defined limiting elevations i.e. the top of active berm and the depth of closure (the seaward limit of significant sediment transport). GENESIS can simulate changes in shoreline position due to the presence and combinations of beach fills and nearshore structures such as groyne, jetties, seawalls, and breakwaters. The model allows for sand bypassing around and through groyne and jetties. The model also accommodates wave diffraction by long groins and offshore breakwaters and wave transmission through breakwaters. Wave conditions, which drive the model, consist of wave height, period and direction and can originate from multiple independent generation sources. GENESIS considers longshore sediment transport due to breaking waves. The dynamic equation or the statement of the longshore sand transport rate, Q is
Where H is the breaking wave height, Cg is the breaking wave group velocity, x is the long shore direction, and θbs is the angle of breaking waves referenced to the shore perpendicular direction, a1 and a2 are the non-dimensional parameters, p is porosity of the sand on the bed, s is ratio of density of sand to density of water and tan β is the average near shore bottom slope. The first term considers sediment transport generated by the long shore component of the breaking wave energy flux. The second term modifies the transport rate to account for long shore gradients in breaking wave height. K1 and K2 are the two dimensionless calibration factor for controlling the long shore sediment transport and offshore wave breaking. Model Inputs: Bathymetry for the coastal stretch - Bathymetry for the study was prepared using the available primary and secondary data. Wave data - The wave data required for the study has been extracted from SWAN model results at 20m contour depth (Ref: RP106-Mathematical Model Study Report). The extracted data was then transformed to a depth of 10m near shore, using STWAVE model developed by USACE. Shoreline data - Initial shoreline position is an essential input to simulate shoreline evolution was extracted from latest Google Earth Imagery of the project site.
Sediment size - The D50 sediment grain size of 0.15mm was considered for the model study. Model Simulation: The shoreline evolution model has been set up for incorporating all the existing coastal features (manmade and natural). A shoreline stretch of 28km evenly distributed near the vicinity of the proposed port has been studied. A grid resolution of 100m×100m was used for the simulation of shoreline evolution using GENESIS. The non-dimensional calibration parameters, K1 and K2 were varied to set up the shoreline model. The calibration parameters used to correlate with the shoreline evolution was further used in simulation incorporating the proposed port breakwaters and reclaimed area at the shore. Since the region is mainly influenced by the tide, the tidal current from the calibrated hydrodynamic
Page T-3
model is applied in estimation of shoreline evolution. The simulation was carried out for a period of ten years. Simulations for longer period (more than ten years) can lead to unrealistic results, as there may be chances of coastal development which cannot be accounted in the model study Results: The influence of proposed development was simulated by introducing proposed breakwaters and reclaimed area at the shore and keeping all other parameters same as those used in the existing condition. The year wise shoreline evolution over ten years to the south and north of the proposed port has been tabulated in Table T-2 and Table T-3 and presented in Figure T-2. From the model it is observed that erosion takes place over a stretch 3.8 km towards north of proposed reclaimed area of port and 0.9 km of accretion towards south of proposed reclaimed area of port. Also, simulated result from the model indicates erosion at the average rate of 4 m/year adjacent to the north of proposed Port and accretion at rate of 1.4 m/year adjacent to the south of proposed port. The rate of accretion and erosion has reducing trend alongshore on either side of the proposed reclaimed area of port. Based on the analysis of the results, it is noticed that the rate of shoreline evolution decreases over the years. The shoreline evolution simulation reveals that there will be a erosion tendency towards the north of port area. The land immediately south of port area experiences accretion to the extent of about 0.9 km and the shoreline evolution on either side of the port will get stabilised over the years. The results from the planform shoreline evolution model indicates that the accretion on the south side if the port will not extend beyond 0.9 km and will not have any impact on the Varoli River mouth which is located about 4.0 km from the proposed development. In addition, the analysis of Hydrodynamic result with and without the proposed development reveals that there will not be any change in the hydrodynamics near the river mouth due to the construction of port. Similarly, it is found that the proposed structures will not alter the wave pattern near the river mouth. Hence, it can be concluded that the development of port will not have any influence on the existing morphological process near the river mouth. Even though the predicted impacts on the shoreline are low, it is advised to monitor both water quality and shoreline on either side of the development at regular interval as part of EMP. The shoreline evolution results shown in Figure T-2 are scaled up to 10 times for better representation.

Based on the surveys, the Average Daily Traffic (ADT) along various access roads are assessed and it is observed that traffic on SH-29 (LC -66) is significantly high compared to all other survey locations. This is due to traffic from NH-8 moving towards Umbergaon GIDC, Girgaon & vice versa. In Bhilad – Sarigam – Nargol road, traffic at Sarigam is higher than Saraipatak as significant amount of traffic is destined to Sarigam GIDC.
Traffic destined to or originating from Nargol moving towards south are using Nargol -Sanjan road.

U.3.2 Traffic Forecast / Carrying Capacity of Access Roads
Traffic on the access roads to ports comprises of following three components
Normal traffic: Normal traffic is the traffic due to the current developments. It is also known as Background Traffic. Current normal traffic is obtained by classified volume count survey on the Access roads. Adopting the transport demand elasticity method, which is a proven technique worldwide and is the preferred technique in India, the traffic forecast was carried out. The traffic forecast includes analysis of the following
Identification of Project Influence Area Vehicle Registration Based Analysis Socio Economic Profile Population Per Capita Income Review of Agricultural Performance in Gujarat Industrial Growth Rate Scenario- Gujarat Growth Rates for Commercial Vehicles Growth Rate for Passenger Vehicles, etc.,
Generated Traffic: Generated Traffic is the traffic which is going to be generated due to Nargol Port. It is derived based on quantum of various commodities that will be handled in the Port assuming Rail & Road shares for various commodities. This traffic is function of port traffic.
Construction Traffic: Construction Traffic is the traffic generated due to the movement of materials like (cement, steel, sand, aggregates etc) used for the construction of port. It is derived based on various construction phases assumed.
U.3.2.1 Normal Traffic
Forecast of Normal Traffic on various Access Roads for the years 2015, 2020, 2025, 2030 and 2040 are presented in Table U-6.

U.3.2.2 Generated Traffic
The estimation of passenger traffic on Access roads is based on the expected number of employees/visitors/workers and the corresponding demand for car and Bus trips. The assumptions made for the estimation of goods traffic on the access roads are 75% of the container traffic is transported through road and the remaining 25% by rail. It is expected that if DFC starts functioning then the share of container traffic by rail may increase from 25% to 40%. For all the other commodities there is no change.
The percentage share of commodities transported by road is given in Table U-7.

U.3.2.3 Construction Traffic
Construction of the Nargol port requires construction materials in huge quantities. These materials will be transported from different places to the port. The construction of Nargol port is planned in two phases.
Phase 1 Phase 1A Based on the information on quantity of each material required during the construction number of construction trucks required to transport the required materials is estimated phase wise.
The forecast of construction traffic is given in Table U-10.

U.3.2.4 Total Traffic
Total traffic on the access roads is obtained by summing up normal, generated and construction traffic. Following are the assumptions considered to arrive the total traffic.
Normal traffic will continue to use the roads that they are using currently. The generated traffic is distributed to the access roads based on configuration, length, condition and bottlenecks (if any) of the access roads. The assumed share of generated traffic on various access roads are (i) Bhilad-Sanjan-Nargol – 50%, (ii) Bhilad - Sarigam - Nargol - 35%, (iii) Daman - Nargol 5%, (iv) Talasari - Umbergaon - Nargol 5% and (v) Amagaon- Sanjan- Nargol 5%. The capacity for different types of roads as per IRC 64 are (i) 21000 PCUs for Two Lane, (ii) 24150 PCUs for Two Lane with Paved Shoulders, (iii) 49000 PCUs for Four Lane and (iv) 84000 PCUs for Six Lane. Based on the above assumptions, total traffic on various roads access roads as well as lane requirement for the years 2015, 2020, 2025, 2030 and 2040 are presented in Table U-11.

Based on the capacity analysis for:
Daman – Nargol road can cater traffic until the year 2040 with the current lane configuration considering only 5% of port traffic will use this road Bhilad – SarigaMindiam – Saraipatak Nargol road can cater traffic till the year 2027, with the current lane configuration, it has to be widened into a four lane road by 2028.It is assumed that this road will carry 35% of the port traffic Bhilad – Sanjan road (SH-5A) can cater the traffic until the year 2025, it has to be widened into a four lane road by 2026. It is assumed that this road will carry 50% of the port traffic Talasari - LC-66 & Amagaon- LC-68 road can cater the traffic till 2040, considering only 10% (5% Each) of port traffic will use this road
Based on the capacity analysis, existing roads can cater traffic till 2025. Hence it can be concluded that the existing roads are sufficient to cater the port traffic in the Phase 1 and Phase 1A. In general, Based on the traffic forecast existing 2-lane configuration with paved shoulder will cater till 2025 and 4-

lane will be required by 2026. As the existing roads are proposed to be used as access roads to Port during Phase 1 & Phase 1A then safety and traffic management aspects has been suggested. If existing roads are to be used as access roads to Port during Phase 1 and Phase 1A then safety and traffic management issues should be taken care of. Traffic Wardens shall be deployed at villages for regulating the traffic. Drivers should be sensitized with respect to need to drive carefully while passing through the villages. Speed is one of the main causes for accidents. So, speed of the trucks have to be controlled especially when they are passing through villages by providing speed breakers, sign boards and other appropriate speed control techniques. Proper lighting, signboards shall be provided at required locations. Geometrics of the existing roads shall be improved at wherever required (sharp curves, junctions etc). It is recommended to have Performance based contract to maintain same level of ride quality throughout the year so that other community stake holders are not affected
