20 ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGAEMENT PLAN

ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGAEMENT PLAN

INTRODUCTION

The EMP need to be integrated in overall project planning process covering all phases of project cycles i.e, location, design, construction and operation. Management by provision of necessary safeguard in planning of the project itself can lead to reduction of adverse environmental impacts due to project. This chapter spells out the set of measures to be undertaken during project construction and operation to reduce or mitigate or bring down the adverse environmental impacts to acceptable level based on the proposed Environmental Management Plan.

The most reliable way to ensure that the plan will be integrated into the overall project planning and implementation is to include the plan as an integral component of the project. This will ensure that it receives funding and supervision along with other investment components. For optimal integration of EMP into the project, there should be link for: • Funding; • Management, Training and • Monitoring The purpose of the first link is to ensure that proposed actions are adequately financed. The second link helps in embedding training, technical assistance, staffing and other institutional strengthening items in the mitigation measures to implement the overall management plan. The third provides a critical path for implementation and enables sponsors and the funding agency to evaluate the success of mitigation measures, as part of project supervision and as a means to improve future projects. For every use discussed in the above sections, the implementing agency as well as staffing, equipment, phasing and budgeting have been presented as far as possible. All required funds will be channelled through the project authority.

Environmental Management Plan (EMP) will be established to monitor and to ensure the proper functioning of the Proposed Project. The EMS will include the following: • Environmental Management Cell • Personnel Training on Environmental Awareness Program and Safety Issues ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN

ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT CELL An organizational setup to be formed to ensure effective implementation of the mitigation measures to minimize the impacts due to the activities carried out during Construction and Operation phase of the Proposed Project and to execute the Environmental Monitoring Plan.

The responsibilities of the Environmental Management Cell is given below • To implement the Mitigation measures • To assure regulatory compliance with all relevant rules and regulations • To ensure regular operation and maintenance of pollution control measures • To initiate environmental monitoring as per approved schedule • Maintain documentation of good environmental practices and applicable environmental laws as ready reference • Coordination with regulatory agencies, external consultants, monitoring laboratories. • Conducting Environmental Awareness Program for the patients and employees on Safety issues, Water management, and Energy conservation. The organizational set up of the Environmental Management Cell is shown in Figure 1 ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN

Figure 1: Environmental Management Cell

All developmental activities will bring some impacts associated with its origin, which can be broadly classified as reversible, irreversible, long and short-term impacts. In this section an endeavor has been made to identify various Environmental Impacts associated with the proposed project both during construction and operational phase.

Based on the possible worst case emissions and waste generation from the proposed project and also taking into consideration the baseline Environmental status at the proposed project site, the environmental factors that may likely be affected (Impacts) are assessed. Both instrumental (positive) and detrimental (negative) impacts are accounted for this purpose. The prediction of impacts helps in the preparing a sound Environmental Management Plan which has to be executed during operational and construction phase to minimize the adverse impacts on the environmental quality.

The potential impacts on the environment from the proposed project are identified based on the nature of the various activities associated not only with the project implementation and operation, but also on the current status of the environmental quality at the project site. ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN All the potentially significant environmental impacts from the project are grouped as below. i. Air Environment • Impacts on ambient air quality • Impacts on ambient odour • Impacts on ambient noise ii. Water Environment • Impacts on surface water quality • Impacts on ground water iii. Land Environment • Impacts on land use • Impacts on agriculture iv. Socio Economics • Impacts on infrastructure • Impacts on employment v. Indirect Impacts • Impacts on public health and safety • Impacts on cultural resources • Impacts on aesthetics To study the existing status of the ambient air quality in the project area and its surroundings few samples of air, water and soil will be collected and analyzed for important parameters. Similarly noise levels will also be measured at some important locations.

ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN DURING CONSTRUCTION PHASE i. Water and Wastewater Management The environmental impacts during the construction phase are limited to construction phase only. Water demand required for construction activity is 160 KLD and for construction labors is 90 KLD(2000 Nos * 45 LPCD) and the same will be met through KIADB treated water tankers. Proper sanitation facilities will be provided to the construction workers. 100 toilets and 100bathrooms will be provided for 500 labors. 81 KLD of sewage generated will be treated in STP based on Sequencing Batch reactors (SBR). After treatment, 77 KLD treated water will be reused for constructional ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN purposes and for sprinkling on roads to control the dust emissions. Hence no unsanitary conditions will be created. ii. Solid Waste Management About600 Kgs/day of solid waste will be generated from the labour campus and the same will be handed over to the KIADB trucks. iii. Construction Debris Management The debris will be generated due to the construction activity and the same will be used for backfilling and for sub-base works of roads and pavements within the project site. iv. Environmental Impacts due to Construction Activity and their Management Measures Environmental impacts due to the construction activity are: • Removal of topsoil due to excavation will lead to high water requirement for future landscape purposes and will prevent the growth of native plant species. • Change in topography of the area will mean change in drainage patterns of the area. • Reduced ground water recharge due to increase of hard surfaces. • Construction activities create dust/air pollution • Heavy machinery used generates noise pollution • Urbanized areas lead to a temperature rise of 1-2o C due to higher absorptive surfaces. Implementing some site control measure during construction will reduce the environmental impacts and reduce the nuisance levels to the surrounding areas from the construction site.

v. Measures to control site impacts a) Site Clearance • Site clearing process will be phased to only areas that need excavation initially; this will reduce the dust emission from currently unused areas. • Unused area will be vegetated by growing temporary groundcover plants or flower beds. b) Construction of Access Roads • Collaboration with municipal authorities for temporary/permanent road widening to cater to the additional truck traffic and future traffic ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN • Truck movement will be avoided during the morning and evening rush hours i.e. before 10.00am and after 5.00pm. • Frequent water sprinkling will be done to reduce local dust emissions. c) Noise Barriers • Sensitive neighboring sites will be identified and barriers will be erected to safeguard those sides from impacts • Noise protective equipment will be provided to the operator of the machine • Silencer/dampers will be attached to the equipment to reduce noise from the equipment to surrounding areas. • Noise prone activities will be restricted during night time d) Excavation • Excavation will be carried out in such a manner that it will not reduce slope stability • The top soil will be used for landscaping and leveling activities on site. • On windy days excavation activities will be avoided to reduce dust emissions • Excavated soil will be prevented from spilling out of the site boundaries on to adjoining roads and properties. e) Dust Emission during Construction • Site will be watered at least twice a day to reduce the dust emissions • Tree plantation program will be carried out along the approach roads and the construction. f) Drainage • Drainage system will be provided for the site to avoid water runoff on to the surrounding properties and roads, especially during the monsoon months. • If during excavation, water accumulates in the excavated areas, it will be pumped out and disposed off either in the municipal storm water drain or into recharge soak pits of dry bore wells. g) Maintenance of Vehicles • Construction vehicles will be properly maintained to minimize smoke in the exhaust emissions ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN h) Material Loading and Unloading • All trucks hauling dirt, sand, soil or other loose material will be covered two feet free board will be maintained. • Load and unload of trucks will be carried out on site. i) Surrounding Areas • Adjacent roads of the site will be swept at least once a day that get soiled due to the frequent movement of trucks to and fro from the site. • All outdoor lighting, will be designed, installed and operated to ensure that all direct rays from project lighting are contained within construction site. j) Solid/Hazardous Waste Disposal The hazardous materials used during construction phase may include petrol, diesel, welding gas and paints. These materials will be stored and handled according to the KSPCB guidelines. • Diesel and other fuels will be stored in separate enclosures. • Wherever possible, hazardous raw materials will be substituted by non-hazardous materials for example cleaning solvent will be replaced with film – free biodegradable cleaners. Usage of non chlorinated strippers instead of strippers containing methylene chloride and substitution of water based paint for oil based ones. • Vehicle maintenance area will be designed to prevent contamination of ground water by accidental spillage of oil.

ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN DURING OPERATIONAL PHASE There are no negative impacts due to the proposed project on the environmental parameters such as air, noise, land and water. i. Air Quality Management Major pollutants envisaged from the proposed project will be from the Industries and vehicles movement. The major pollutants will be oxides of nitrogen, particulates and sulphur-dioxide. The following methods of abatement will be employed for the air pollution control board source level. • Use advance and proper methods to control and reduce air pollution from industries • Green belt development with specific species will reduce SPM levels ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN • Use of clean fuel by the vehicles will reduce emission of pollutants • The emission from the slacks of Industries will be monitored for exit concentration of Oxides of nitrogen and sulphurdioxide • Sampling ports will be provided in the slacks according to KSPCB guidelines. ii. Noise Level Management Some of the practices proposed for noise attenuation are as follows. • All noise generating source from the industries and DG Set for residential and commercialwill be equipped with appropriate noise control measures. • Sound levels will be consistent with local government regulations • Ambient noise levels will be periodically monitored to determine compliance with the norms. • Noise levels will also be monitored at point source for occupational noise exposure and ensuring health risk. iii. Water Demand and Supply Two separate pipelines for the cold water supply for domestic purpose and treated water supply for industrial and gardening purpose will be laid. Sewage and domestic wastewater from soil pipes and sullage pipes will be led into the sewage treatment plant. From the sewage treatment plant, water flows into the treated water sump. From the treated water sump, a separate line will be laid which connects to the WC and to the sprinklers. Water demand during the operation phase is 8.08 MLD which is drawn from Hemavathi River for project needs. The Water NOC is obtained from the concerned department. iv. Wastewater Management The estimated Sewage generations during operation phase2.144 MLDand Trade Effluent from industries is 2.8 MLD. v. Sewage Treatment Plants Quantity of sewage generated during the construction phase will be 72 KLD. Sewage during construction phase will be treated in STP based on Sequencing Batch reactors (SBR) and treated water will be reused for constructional purposes and for sprinkling on roads to control the dust emissions. ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN During operation phase sewage generated will be treated in the Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) planned in 4.7 Ac provided for STP. The estimated Sewage generations during operation phase, 2.1 MLD. The treated water shall be reused in toilet flushing, gardening etc. and the wastewater generated from the industries is 4.844 MLD, which is treated in their respective Effluent Treatment Plants (ETP) on the bases of advance and zero discharge concept. The treated water is reuse for industries like cooling, heat exchangers, boilers, cleaning equipment’s etc. vi. Solid Waste Management and Hazardous Waste Management Project proponent will establish and maintain storage facilities in such a manner as they do not create unhygienic and unsanitary conditions around it. Following criteria shall be taken into account while establishing and maintaining storage facilities, namely  Storage facilities, to be set up by project proponent authorities or any other agency, shall be so designed that wastes stored are not exposed to open atmosphere and shall be aesthetically acceptable and user-friendly;  Storage facilities or ‘bins’ shall have ‘easy to operate’ design for handling, transfer and transportation of waste. Bins for storage of bio-degradable wastes shall be painted green, those for storage of recyclable wastes shall be printed white and those for storage of other wastes shall be printed black;  Manual handling of waste shall be prohibited. If unavoidable due to constraints, manual handling shall be carried out under proper precaution with due care for safety of workers. vii. Traffic Management Measures Vehicle movement will be regulated inside the site with adequate roads and parking lots. The layout plan of the proposed site has been planned to develop an internal road network in such a manner that it integrates the whole proposed project in an interesting composition to built masses and open spaces with a pedestrian dominated movement pattern. Entry point to the proposed project site has been worked out keeping in view of the desired movement of vehicles on the main approach road and road network around the site. Main entry to the project is planned from the approach road on the northern and eastern side. An adequately wide driveway to cater to one-way traffic has been planned inside the project site.

Energy Saving Measures Power savings methods are adopted as per energy conservation:  Use of loss transformers – total losses will be 1.19% of the rating of the transformers  Temperature sensors with visible temperature indicators in the switch boards  Check metering at various locations to check the power consumption and power loss if any.  Suitable rating and size cables selection to limit the total power distribution losses less than 1%  Solar water heater for pre – heating water required for bathing and cooking.  Use of high efficiency hybrid chillers (water and air cooled) and variable speed drivers. xi. DEVELOPMENT OF GREEN BELT Green belt is plantation of trees for reducing the pollution as they absorb both gaseous and particulate pollutant, thus removing them from atmosphere. Green plants form a surface capable of absorbing air pollutants and forming sinks for pollutants. It balances the ecological environment, prevents soil erosion, improves the aesthetic value of local environment and provides possible habitats for birds and animals, thus creating hospitable nature in urban areas. Greenbelts in and around urban areas have probably not saved any ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN lives, but they are important nonetheless to the ecological health of any given region. The various plants and trees in greenbelts serve as organic sponges for various forms of pollution, and as storehouses of carbon dioxide to help offset global warming. a) Horticulture While making choice of plant species for cultivation in green belts, weightage has to be given to the natural factor of bio-climate. It is also presumed that the selected plants will be grown as per normal horticultural practice. A standard horticultural practice involves planting of saplings in proper dimensions for smaller trees and shrubs. The pits are then filled with earth, sand, silt and manure in pre- determined proportions. The growing plants are cared for the first three years under favorable conditions of climate and drainage. Hence it is safe to assume that trees and bushes grown as green belt components in areas under human control will have overcome the limitations imposed by soil characters to a great extent. Limitations imposed by climatic conditions on the other hand cannot be overcome and hence will have to be taken into account while selecting species for plantation in different bio-climatic conditions. b) Plantation along Roadsides Automobiles may be considered as ground level, mobile sources of pollution of both types- gaseous as well as particulate. Components of green belts on road sides hence should be both absorbers of gases as well as of dust particles, including even lead particulates. Choice of plants for roadside plantations may be for containment of pollution and for formation of a screen between traffic and roadside residences. This choice of plants should include shrubs of height 1- 1.5 m and tree of 3-5 m height. The intermixing of trees and shrubs should be such that the foliage area density in vertical is almost uniform. Since safety of traffic is a major consideration, shrubs in roads will have to be short enough to be below the eye level of motorists. c) Plants for Green Belt Development All tolerant plants are not necessarily good for green belts e.g. Xerophytes with sunken stomata can withstand pollution by avoidance but are poor absorbers of pollutants due to low gaseous exchange capacity. Therefore selection of plants is very important in green belt development for effective removal of suspended particulate matter and for absorption of gases. The Landscape Diagram of the proposed project will be planned after the allotments of industries.
