I dated Complete DSR 1 01 DSR 28.07.2020 -, 4 --- - - -- -------------------- CERTIFICATE The District Survey Report preparations have been undertaken in compliance with Government of India, Ministry of Environment, Forests & Climate Change, and Notification No. S. O. 3611 (E); dated 25" July 2018. Every effort have been made to cover Sand Mining locations, area and overview of Mining activities in Beed district; with all its relevant features pertaining to Geology and Mineral wealth in replenishable and non- replenishable areas of rivers, streams and other sand sources. This report will be a model and guiding document which is compendium of available mineral resources, geographical setup, environmental and ecological setup of Beed district and is based on data of various departments, published reports and websites. The District Survey Report will form the bases for application for Environmental Clearance, preparation of reports and appraisal of projects. Date: Place: Beed Prepared By, Approved By, ~ District Mining Officer, Beed PREFACE With reference to the gazette notification dated 15th January 2016, Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change, the District- Environment Impact Assessment Authority (DEIAA) and District­ Environment Assessment Committee (DEAC) are to be constituted by the Divisional Commissioner for prior environmental clearance of quarry for minor minerals. The DEIAA and DEAC will scrutinize and recommend the prior environmental clearance of ministry of minor minerals on the basis of district survey report. The main purpose of preparation of District Survey Report is to identify the mineral resources and mining activities along with other relevant data of district. This report contains details of Lease, Sand mining and Revenue which comes from minerals in the district. This report is prepared on the basis of data collected from different concern departments. A survey is carried out by the members of DEIAA with the assistance of Geology Department or Irrigation Department or Forest Department or Public Works Department or Ground Water Boards or Remote Sensing Department or Mining Department etc. in the district. Minerals are classified into two groups, namely (i) Major minerals and (ii) Minor minerals. Amongst these two groups, minor mineral have been defined under section 3(e) of Mines and Minerals (Regulation and development) Act, 1957. The minor minerals are further governed by "The Maharashtra Minor Minerals Rule MMME (D & R) rules 2013". The Minor minerals include building stones, Gravel, ordinary clay, ordinary sand, limestone used for lime burning, boulders, murum, brick earth, bentonite, road metal, slate, marble, stones used for making household utensils etc. and other minerals not defined as minor minerals in the said Act are treated as major minerals. They include coal, kyanite, sillimanite, barites, chromite, fluorite, quartz, sand used for stowing Purposes in coal mines and many other minerals used for industrial purposes. Based on the amendments made by the Ministry of Environment, Forests and Climate Change, Government of India, in the Environment Impact Assessment Notification, 2006 notified an amendment on 15 January 2016, to which the Central Government makes the amendments by Notification dated 25th July 2018. The district survey document has been prepared in accordance with the Appendix-X of the said notifications. The Minerals/ rivers/streams were studied based on the following parameters excluding the hill slope mining. OBJECTIVES The main objective of the preparation of District Survey Report (as per the Sustainable Sand Mining Guideline) is to ensure the following - .:. Identification of areas of aggradations or deposition where mining can be allowed; .:. Identification of areas of erosion and proximity to infrastructural structures and installations where mining should be prohibited and calculation of annual rate of replenishment and allowing time for replenishment after mining in that area; .:. Identification of mineral wealth in the district. 6 GUIDELINES FOR MINING OF MINOR MINERALS The mining operations for minor minerals were carried out in unscientific manner in Maharashtra since there were no guidelines for extraction of minor mineral. Identifying this fact In exercise of powers conferred by Section 15 of Mines & Minerals (Development & Regulation) Act, 1957 (67 of 1957) and of all other powers enabling it in that behalf, the Revenue & . Forest Department, Government of Maharashtra framed the Maharashtra Minor Mineral Extraction (Development and Regulation) Rules, 2013. Since Prior Environmental Clearance has now become mandatory for mining of minor minerals irrespective of the area of mining lease after the matter of Deepak Kumar etc. Vs. State of Haryana and Others as per Hon'ble Supreme Court dated 27th February, 2012 in I.A. No.12-13 of 2011 in Special Leave Petition (C) No.19628-19629 of 2009, Ministry of Environment, Forest & Climate Change (MoEF& CC) had issued Office Memorandum No. L-1I01I/47/2011-1A.1I(M) dated 18th May 2012; henceforth as per this O.M. all mining projects of minor minerals would require prior environmental clearance irrespective of the lease area. Mining projects with Lease area less than 5 hector are categorized as category 'B2' and projects with lease area 5 hector and above and less than 50 hector are categorized as category 'B' whereas projects with lease area of 50 ha and above are categorized as category 'A'.
