What are the likely impacts of the The present land use is vacant, proposed activity on the existing has vegetation which has to be facilities adjacent to the proposed cleared before start of site? (Such as open spaces, construction community facilities, details of the existing landuse, disturbance to the Proposed project does not involve local ecology). any activities which cause disturbance to the ecology. There will be temporary generation of fugitive dust and noise during the construction phase. Environmental Management Plan (EMP) will be implemented during the construction and operational phase of the project to mitigate the impacts. 1.4. Will there be any significant land There will be land disturbance, disturbance resulting in erosion, since below ground level subsidence & instability? excavation is planned. (Details of soil type, slope analysis, vulnerability to subsidence, seismicity etc may be given). 1.5. Will the proposal involve alteration No natural drains/nallahs are of natural drainage systems?
