The proposed ordinary earth excavation does not involve any blasting or rock mining. Mechanized method is used for excavation of ordinary earth and excavation will be carried out using excavators and transportation of material using pg. 9 tippers. The quantity of earth excavated will be 50000 cum. There is no environmental hazard involved in this process.The ordinary earth excavated (the minor mineral) from proposed site will only be used for the utilization of the infrastructure growth activities carriedout with in the country or region. Excavated ordinary earth will be used for earth filling for constructions of Tanur Bridge between Ottumpuram side & Kettungal Side and basic filling for road formation of TanurMunipality Road (Kalad – Tanur Road up gradation). 2.4 Need for the project and its importance to the country or region The basic objective of the project is to effective utilization of material in the country or region. ordinaryearth /red earth excavation will help in developing the transport network and infrastructure of the country orregion.Excavated ordinary earth will be used for earth filling for constructions of Tanur Bridge between Ottumpuram side &Kettungal Side and basic filling for road formation of TanurMunipality Road (Kalad – Tanur Road up gradation) . 2.5 Demand and supply gap There is a large demand of ordinary earth / red earth for earth filling for constructions, road formation and other infrastructure development. Excavated ordinary earth will be used for earth filling for constructions of Tanur Bridge between Ottumpuram side &Kettungal Side and basic filling for road formation of TanurMunipality Road (Kalad – Tanur Road upgradation). 2.6 Imports vs indigenous production There will not be any import of material for this proposed project. And no indigenous materials will be produced/excavated during this mining activity. 2.7 Export possibility There will not be any export of material since this is low category minor mineral- ordinary earth excavationproject and the project proponent would like to sale out the material excavated in the domestic market only. pg. 10 2.8 Domestic/export market There is a large demand of ordinary earth /red earth for earth filling for constructions, road formation and other infrastructure development. Excavated ordinary earth will be used for earth filling for constructions of Tanur Bridge between Ottumpuram side &Kettungal Side and basic filling for road formation of TanurMunipality Road (Kalad – Tanur Road upgradation). Since this is low category minor mineral ordinary earth and high local demand there is no proposal for export of material and the project proponent would like to sale out the material excavated in the domestic market only. 2.9 Employment generation (direct and indirect) In this proposed excavation project, 8-10 people will have direct employment and around 10- 16 will have indirect employment. 3.PROJECT DESCRIPTION: 3.1 Types of project including interlinked and interdependent project This is an ordinary earth excavation project. Excavated ordinary earth will be used for earth filling for constructions of Tanur Bridge between Ottumpuram side &Kettungal Side and basic filling for road formation of TanurMunipality Road (Kalad – Tanur Road upgradation). The ordinary earth excavated (the minor mineral) from proposed site will only be used for the utilization of the infrastructure growth activities carried out with in the country or region. This project is not interlinked with any other projects. Projects like earth filling for constructions, road formation and other infrastructure developments are interdependent to this project 3.2 Location This ordinary earth excavation site is at Kalpathy, nearKarathode in survey no. 247/1, block no. 37, Oorakam Village, ThirurangadiTaluk, Malappuram District in an extent of0.7284 hector. pg. 11 3.3 Details of alternate sites considered and basis of selecting the proposed site, particularly the environment consideration gone into should be highlighted The excavation of ordinary earth is site specific and no alternative site has been considered. The proposed project site is part of elevated hilly terrain.Excavation of ordinary earth will not generate significant pollutions & environmental issues. 3.4 Size or magnitude of operation This proposed Ordinary earth excavation project is in an extent of 0.7284 Ha. The proposed site is 8-16 feet high from the road level. It is proposed /planned to excavate approx. 13 feet (4 m) Ordinary Earth from the proposed area.
