The entire allotted lease lies within river beds of Rohinibhan (Dihari) Ghat, river sand there will be no change in land use after operation. The river sand will be replenished every year during the monsoon season. The ultimate land use of the allotted lease area will not change. 1.2 Clearance of existing land, vegetation and No The mine lease area is flat river bed and river 3 River San d (Minor Mineral ) Mining Project for Rohinibhan ( Dihari ) Ghat (295447.5 TPA), ML Area 14.59 ha, District- Buxar (Bihar) Form - 1 / Appendix – I buildings? banks .

The river sand is a loose material so no blasting is required for its mining. The proposed 4 River San d (Minor Mineral ) Mining Project for Rohinibhan ( Dihari ) Ghat (295447.5 TPA), ML Area 14.59 ha, District- Buxar (Bihar) Form - 1 / Appendix – I produ ction is 295447.5 TPA. The salient features of proposed mining method are:- • Mining will be confined within central 3/4th width of the river. This will prevent collapse of bank and erosion. • It will be done leaving a safety zone of total of 1/4th of the width of the river from the banks for bank protection. • Excavated area will be replenished naturally due to sediment inflow from the catchment area. • The maximum depth of sand quarrying in the river bed shall not exceed 1 (three) meters measured from the un-mined bed level at any point of time or the water table whichever is less. There is no waste or mineral rejects generation in the proposed mining of river sand. 1.14 Facilities for storage of goods or No No facility for storage of goods or mate rials is required as the mineral will directly be materials? loaded into trucks and transported to the end users.
