DISTRICT ENVIRONMENTAL PLAN FOR DISTRICT

PREPARED BY DISTRICT ADMINISTRATION-RANCHI Foreword

As per the order passed on 26.09.2019 in O.A. No. 360/218 by the Hon’ble National Green Tribunal, regarding the essence of having a District Environment Plan (DEP) and its operation by the District Environment Committee, a District Environment Plan has been formulated for Ranchi, the state Capital of Jharkhand.

The importance of waste management and disposal has been increasingly recognized during the past two decades. It is now generally accepted that economic development strategies must be compatible with environmental goals. This requires the incorporation of environmental dimensions into the process of development and with the circular economy gaining acceptance and more importantly a strategy for sustainable development, waste management strategies can be aligned to reduce environmental degradation. It is important to make choices and decisions that will eventually promote sound development by understanding the environment functions.

The proposed plan has been prepared as per the framework give by the Central Pollution Control Board and also by the state pollution control board. The plan has been prepared across the 7 thematic areas and 64 action areas as mentioned in the format given by CPCB. Ranchi has been one of the most populated cities in Jharkhand and houses most of the government departments and other institutions. It generates huge volume of waste of all kinds. Though district administration and its organs has been actively involved in the management of waste but this proposed plan is an effort to put practices in writing so that it can be referred back for designing strategy to combat the waste management in a circular economy model.

Administration has been accepting the principle of waste management of projects at the planning stage and hence environmental management plans has been mandatory for making any project operational. The challenge was to provide the appropriate tools to undertake waste management plan. The proposed plan will help in different institutions making arrangement for the safe and scientific disposal of the waste generated out of the activities under taken by communities. This plan will help in developing systems for the safe and scientific disposal of the waste from the seven thematic areas. The plan is the result of the collaborative efforts from main line departments and different institutions under district administration.

We would like to thank very one involved in the process of preparing the District Environment Plan and we believe with the joint and collaborative efforts we will be able to make a cleaner, safer and environmentally sound Ranchi.

Sri Ashok Kumar Dubey Sri Chavi Ranjan Divisional Forest Officer District Collector Ranchi Ranchi

Its climate is the primary reason why Ranchi was once the summer capital of the undivided State of Bihar. Ranchi used to be a preferable hill station in the past. Temperature ranges from maximum 42 to 20 °C during summer and from 25 to 0 °C during winter. December and January are the coolest months with temperature getting to freezing point in some places of the city? The annual rainfall is about 1430 mm (56.34 inches). From June to September the rainfall is about 1,100 mm. ⮚ Availability of : Mainly Stone, Brick clay, Sand, Limestone, Granite. ⮚ Forest: - Ranchi district has Reserved Protected area covering about 30836 hectares and Protected Forest area of about 148618 hectares. According to the latest Indian State of Forest Report (ISFR) published by Forest Survey of India in 2018, Ranchi

7

increased its forest area by 10 sq. km since 2015, the highest increase among all the districts in Jharkhand. This increase happened despite rapid urbanization and development in the city. Major Forest Trees are Sal, Dhaura, Mahua, Kendu, Bamboo, Asan etc and Major products of forest are Timber, Palas, Firewood, Mahua seed. Administrative set up: -Ranchi, Capital of Jharkhand is divided into Ranchi and Bundu subdivisions and each subdivision is further divided into blocks, panchayats and villages. It consists of 18 blocks and 305 panchayats. Under Ranchi Subdivision, there are 14 blocks and Bundu Subdivision consists of 4 blocks. Ranchi, in its modern form, is the capital city of the Indian state of Jharkhand. The city has a moderate climate and was the summer capital of Bihar until Jharkhand was separated in the year 2000. It is popularly known as a “City of Water Falls”. The Deputy Commissioner is the head of District administration. He also acts as the Collector in case of Revenue matters, as District Development Commissioner in case of District Developmental works, as District Magistrate in case of maintenance of Law and Order and General Administration, as District Election Officer in case of conduct of Election. He is assisted by Sub Divisional Magistrate heading a sub division.

Administrative Setup of Ranchi Includes: ❖ Collectorate ❖ ❖ Police ❖ Subdivision & Blocks ❖ Village & Panchayats ❖ Constituency

CHAPTER- II

WASTE MANAGEMENT PLAN

(2.1) Solid Waste Management Plan

Solid waste management is one of the most essential services for maintaining the quality of life in the urban areas and for ensuring better standards of health and sanitation. In India, this service falls short of the desired level as the systems adopted are outdated and inefficient. Institutional weakness, shortage of human and financial resources, improper choice of technology, inadequate coverage and lack of short- and long-term planning are responsible for the inadequacy of services.

In 2016, the Union Ministry of Environment, Forests and Climate Change came up with the new Solid Waste Management Rules (SWM). These rules are the sixth category of waste management rules and do not include plastic, e-waste, biomedical, hazardous and construction and demolition waste.

As per these new rules ‘waste’ is defined as solid waste alone which is generated by all the households, hospitality industry, big and small market vendors. These rules are applicable beyond municipal areas and extend to urban agglomerations, census towns, notified industrial townships, areas under the control of , airports, airbase, port and harbor, defence establishments, special economic zones, State and Central government organizations, places of pilgrims, religious & historical importance.

10 Things That You Need To Know About Solid Waste Management Rules 2016

Segregation of Waste is Important

(As per the new rules, all waste generators should start segregating their waste into three categories – Biodegradables, Dry Waste (Plastic, Paper, metal, Wood) and Domestic Hazardous Waste (diapers, napkins, mosquito repellents, cleaning agents) before they hand it over to the collectors)

Collection and Disposal of Sanitary Napkins

9

(In order to manage the sanitary waste like diapers and sanitary pads effectively, the new guidelines have made it mandatory for the manufacturers to provide a pouch or wrapper for disposal whenever they sell their products to the customer)

Introduction of New Things – User Fees and Spot Fines

(Under the new rules, waste generators will have to pay some amount to the waste collectors for activities like collection, disposal, and processing of waste)

Collect Back System for Non-biodegradable Packaging Waste (The new guidelines say that the brand owners who sell or market their products in packaging material which are non‐biodegradable or are not environmentally friendly, will have to put a system in place to collect back the packaging waste generated due to their production)

A Bin Is A Must for Street Vendors (All street vendor should keep suitable containers or bins for storage of the waste generated by them such as food waste, disposable plates, cups, cans, wrappers, coconut shells, leftover food, vegetables, fruits etc. They are also responsible for their own waste and should deposit their waste at a waste storage depot or container or vehicle as notified by the local authority)

Guidelines for The Over-growing Landfills (No non-recyclable waste having calorific value of 1500 K/Cal/kg or more shall be disposed in the landfills)

Waste Processing and Treatment Guidelines (The new rules advise that the bio-degradable waste should be processed, treated and disposed of through composting or bio-methanation within the premises as far as possible and the residual waste shall be given to the waste collectors or agency as directed by the local authority)

10

Involvement of Ragpickers (The new rules help in the integration of ragpickers, waste pickers and kabadiwalas from the informal sector to the formal sector by the state government)

Guidelines for Municipal Authorities (All local bodies are required to set up few by-laws regarding waste management, segregation of waste within their society. They are also required to set up a system in place so as the process of waste segregation can be followed smoothly by all waste generators. They are also required to promote the idea of composting, waste segregation and waste management through different educative campaigns)

The Process of Monitoring (The government has also established a Central Monitoring Committee under the chairmanship of Secretary, MoEF&CC to monitor the overall implementation of the rules effectively. It is advised that the committee comprising of various stakeholders from the central and state governments will meet once a year to discuss and monitor the implementation of these rules)

(2.1.1) Present Scenario in the district: In Ranchi District, there are 01 No. of ULBs namely Ranchi Municipal Corporation, and 01 No. of Nagar Panchayats namely Bundu Nagar Panchayat. The ULBs on an average generates about 556.89 Metric Tonnes of waste per day. The quantities of waste are also growing with each passing year.

11

(2.1.2) Action Plan for the management of Solid Waste: - Solid waste is to be managed in accordance with the Solid Waste management Rules, 2016 issued by the Ministry of Environment and Forests, . Solid waste majorly comprises of biodegradable waste and non-biodegradable waste. Biodegradable waste can e used for composting as it is the easiest and simplest way to manage solid bio-degradable waste into something fruitful. Compost pits can be constructed at local levels and that can be used at households for kitchen garden or nutrition garden. At least 50% of the non-biodegradable wastes can be recycled and reused if these are sorted properly. Non-biodegradable waste contains recyclable (paper, plastic, glass and metal etc.), toxic substances (paints, pesticides, used batteries, medicines etc.) and non-recyclable wastes that can in many ways pose huge threats to the environment by adding up to pollutants. Once that cannot be reused shall be dumped into the landfills. Landfills are a cause of leaching chemicals and toxic substances into the water table and thus posing huge threats to the biotic species.

05 Monitoring and Executive Officers of ULBs will time to time Executive Officers of Review monitor/review the performance of their ULBs respective ULB on waste segregation, District Level processing, treatment and disposal and take corrective measures. District Level Committee Committee will also sit bi-monthly to review the status of execution of SWM.

Note: - One number of Solid Waste Processing Plant has been proposed namely Solid Waste Processing Facility of Production with capacity Organic Compost and Bio Gas-63 MT/month at Mauza- Gutuhatu, Bundu, District- Ranchi.

Additionally, the concept of circular economy is introduced in context to solid waste management. Unlike the linear economy, based on an extensive use of resources, which has negative impacts on environment due to the waste generation, the circular economy involves the reutilization of the materials such as the waste from the manufacturing process to become a potential materials source for another process. The central idea is to retain resources in the production processes based on their reutilization, by producing more value added for a longer period of time, in a production system as closed as possible. The adoption of the circular economy concept refers mostly to two distinct directions: customer interface (by proposing value to customers) and suppliers’ networks by reconciliation of the producer’s own internal activity. No matter the direction, it is generally considered that the circular economy is a combination of three main concepts: Reducing resources consumption, Reusing waste and Recycling activities. The concept of sustainable development had evolved in time and is based on the long-term vision of development that takes into account more and more the need to assure the equity between countries and generations and the interconnections between the economic, social and environmental dimensions of sustainable development. The current technological evolutions make it necessary to take into account the technological sector mostly in the context of the amplified importance of the knowledge and innovative based economy. The concept of “circular economy” as a strategy for waste elimination has been broadly adopted in the business world. Companies have sought to achieve “zero waste” by finding uses for discarded materials and closing the loop in their supply network. Circularity not only offers economic benefits and reduces a company’s ecological footprint, 13 but also increases both business and community resilience by reducing dependence upon scarce resources and long-distance supply chains. The concept has been implemented by progressive business leaders as a cost-effective means of improving corporate sustainability and resilience (Ellen MacArthur Foundation 2017).

With the city generating close to 547 MT/day waste out of which 335 Mt/day is the wet waste which is mostly bio degradable and can be used for composting. With 60% of this waste being fit to composting as per data of the municipal bodies, it can help in generating 150.75 MT/day of compost which worth Rs.7, 53,750/day at the rate of compost selling at Rs.5000/MT.

Further the solid waste can be recycled and authorized vendors can be put for making a circular economy operation which can help in generating revenues for the corporation and may help in creating better facilities for communities in the catchment area.

Further with the population growing at an average of 15 to 20 percent per decade, it is expected to increase and this will help in generating revenues for the municiplal corporations and can create more job opportunities.

(2.2) Plastic Waste Management Plan

Plastic products have become an integral part of our daily life as a result of which the polymer is produced at a massive scale worldwide. On an average, production of plastic globally crosses 150 Million tonnes per year. Its broad range of application is in packaging films, wrapping materials, shopping and garbage bags, fluid containers, clothing, toys, household and industrial products, and building materials.

It is estimated that approximately 70% of plastic packaging products are converted into plastic waste in a short span. Once plastic is discarded after its utility is over, it is known as plastic waste. It is a fact that plastic waste never degrades, and remains on landscape for several years. Mostly, plastic waste is recyclable but recycled products are more harmful to the environment as this contains additives.

The recycling of a virgin plastic material can be done 2-3 times only, because after every recycling, the plastic material deteriorates due to thermal pressure and its life span is reduced. Hence recycling is not a safe and permanent solution for plastic waste disposal. It has been observed that disposal of plastic waste is a serious concern due to improper collection and segregation system.

(2.2.1) Harmful Effects of Plastics: -

Plastic is versatile, lightweight, flexible, moisture resistant, strong, and relatively inexpensive. Those are the attractive qualities that lead us, around the world, to such a voracious appetite and overconsumption of plastic goods. However, durable and very slow to degrade, plastic materials that are used in the production of so many products, ultimately, become waste. Our tremendous attraction to plastic, coupled with an undeniable behavioral propensity of increasingly over-consuming, discarding, littering and thus polluting, has become a combination of lethal nature. The disposal of plastics is one of the least recognized and most highly problematic areas of plastic’s ecological impact. Ironically, one of plastic’s most desirable traits: its durability and resistance to decomposition, is also the source of one of its greatest liabilities when it comes to the disposal of plastics. Natural organisms have a very difficult time breaking down the synthetic chemical bonds in plastic, creating the tremendous problem of the material’s persistence. A very small amount of total plastic production (less than 10%) is effectively recycled; the remaining plastic is sent to landfills, where it is destined to remain entombed in limbo for hundreds of thousands of years, or to incinerators, where its toxic compounds are spewed throughout the atmosphere to be 15 accumulated in biotic forms throughout the surrounding ecosystems.

Plastic Pollution leads to contamination of in Oceans

Causing Damage to flora and fauna and disruption of human health

(2.2.2) Types of Plastics: - There are seven types of plastic which include: 1. Polyethylene Terephthalate (PETE or PET) 2. High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) 3. Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) 4. Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE) 5. Polypropylene (PP) 6. Polystyrene or Styrofoam (PS) 7. Miscellaneous plastics (includes: polycarbonate, polylactide, acrylic, acrylonitrile butadiene, styrene, fiberglass, and nylon)

Plastics are generally categorized into two types: - a) Thermoplastics: Thermoplastics or Thermo-softening plastics are the plastics which soften on heating and can be moulded into desired shape such as PET, HDPE, LDPE, PP, PVC, PS etc. b) Thermosets: Thermoset or thermosetting plastics strengthen on heating, but cannot be remoulded or recycled such as Sheet Moulding Compounds (SMC), Fibre Reinforced Plastic (FRP), Bakelite etc. are the examples of the same.

Figure 03: - Management of Plastic Waste

(2.2.3) Present Scenario in the district: The ULB (RMC) on an average generates about 70 Metric Tonnes of Plastic waste (PW) per day. It has been observed that disposal of plastic waste is a serious concern due to improper collection and segregation system.

(2.2.4) Action Plan for the management of Plastic Waste: -

Plastic are of wide varieties. These can be used in different ways like plastic mulching, plastic roads. Plastic decks and railings, plastic crafts.

Each one of them has a different importance. Plastic mulching will help in reducing evapo- transpiration; plastic roads will create a more sturdy and more durable with great resistance towards rain water and cold weather. Recycled plastic decks are made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) plastics which can be derived from the plastic bags, chips and candy wrappers, food covers and other such thin plastic materials which are used as wrapping materials. The Self-Help Groups can be trained for making crafts out of the plastic. These plastics can be shredded and used for multipurpose handicrafts items that can be sold by the SHGs in the fairs and mela organised at various levels. This will provide them a source of livelihood and help in reducing plastic waste in the district.

The concept of circular economy in context to the plastic waste management; The circular economy is an alternative to the current linear, make, use, dispose, economy model, which aims to keep resources in use for as long as possible, to extract the maximum value from them whilst in use, and to recover and regenerate products and materials at the end of their service life. The circular economy promotes a production and consumption model that is restorative and regenerative by design. It is designed to ensure that the value of products, materials, and resources is maintained in the economy at the highest utility and value, for as long as possible, while minimizing waste generation, by designing out waste and hazardous materials. Use plastic waste as a resource: Remanufacturing into new products has been widely demonstrated, for example, for making bricks and composites, in road construction, for furniture, as well as for making clothes and footwear. Plastic waste has also been converted to liquid fuel and has been burned as fuel in a waste-to-energy cycle, though there are downsides to the latter. Through chemical recycling, the petrochemical components of plastic polymers can also be recovered for use in producing new plastics, or for the production of other chemicals, or as an alternative fuel. For example, a recent study successfully developed plastics that can be chemically recycled and reused infinitely. Studies 18 also suggest that polyethylene plastic, a significant proportion of manufactured plastics globally, can be broken down by bacteria and caterpillars, highlighting opportunities for bio- based recycling of waste plastics.

The use of plastics to prepare roads has been successfully demonstrated and it has been found that 3 tons of plastic is needed for constructing 1 kilometers of road and with the city generating 70 MT/day it can be used to construct 22 Kms of road. These roads are comparatively not affected by water loggings and it happens with the conventional roads. It will save lots of money for the government and also help in reducing land degradation and also water related issues as plastic creates an impervious layer preventing percolation of water in the ground. It will also help in reducing untimely death of the stray cattle due to chocking of the intestine with plastics.

Authorized vendors can be contacted for segregating and taking it for use or recycling with making payments to the municipal corporations. It will be win-win situations for the corporation and recyclers both. Most importantly it will reduce environmental pollution and degradation in the long run.

(2.3) C&D Waste Management Plan

Unlike other rules addressing various key urban wastes such as MSW, plastic wastes, BMW, the Construction and Demolition (C & D) Waste Management Guidelines on Environmental Management of C & D Wastes (CPCB, 2017) 2 Rules, 2016 are NEW rules that were notified on 29th March, 2016 by the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEF&CC).

As per Rule 3 (c) "construction and demolition waste" means waste comprising of building materials, debris and rubble resulting from construction, re-modelling, repair and demolition of any civil structure.

Under Rule 3, the following definitions have been provided:

Construction (Subrule (b) "construction" means the process of erecting of building or built facility or other structure, or building of infrastructure including alteration in these entities)

De-Construction (Subrule (d) “de-construction” means a planned selective demolition in which salvage, re-use and recycling of the demolished structure is maximized)

Demolition (Subrule (e) “demolition” means breaking down or tearing down buildings and other structures either manually or using mechanical force (by various equipment) or by implosion using explosives)

(2.3.1) Activities which generate C & D waste in cities / towns are mainly from:

⮚ Demolition of existing, old dilapidated structures ⮚ Renovation of existing buildings (residential or commercial) ⮚ Construction of new buildings (residential or commercial or hotel etc.) ⮚ Excavation/ reconstruction of asphalt/ concrete roads ⮚ Construction of new fly over bridges/ under bridges/ sub-ways etc

20

⮚ Renovation/ Installation of new water/ telephone/ internet/ sewer pipe lines etc. vii. Present collection and disposal system.

(2.3.2) Thrust areas in C & D waste management – National Building Code (NBC)

Some key thrust areas regarding C & D waste reuse / recycling:

⮚ Establish utilization of C & D wastes in concrete and concrete based products by preparing standards. ⮚ Quality control and certification. ⮚ Need for popularizing products from C & D waste. ⮚ R&D activities on continuous basis in tandem with manufacturing industry and users. ⮚ Achieving environment protection through C & D waste utilization. ⮚ Optimizing utilization pattern of traditional materials by interfacing the same with supplementary materials.

(2.3.3) Present scenario in the district

The ULB mainly RMC generates about 50 MT of C & D wastes per day. On the other hand, Bundu Nagar Panchayat generates about 5-6 Tonnes Per Day of C &D waste.

Figure 04: - Hierarchy for C & D waste management

21

(2.3.4) Action Plan for the management of C & D Waste: -

In material recovery and production, specifically in the reuse and recycling of materials, closing resource loops is the main strategy employed for an effective framework in the reuse and recycling of Construction & Demolition Waste. The recirculation of recovered resources in the life cycle allows the use in new construction applications, avoiding the use of virgin raw materials. Material reuse is the practice of using applicable building materials again while recycling requires the breaking down of used items to make new materials and objects. Construction & Demolition Waste material recovery and production in the circular economy should be an integral part of the economy; reuse and recycling construction & demolition waste could save landfill, save energy and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and achieve environmental sustainability. Following the framework effectively would lead to extending of product/material value, provide long life to the material, and extend the resource value of Construction & Demolition Waste. The ones that can be reused shall be dumped in open landfills and plantation on the top of the landfill can be done, which will contribute in increasing the green cover.

Few examples of best practices in Indian C&D waste management taken up by different bodies: Civic bodies, industries, and other organizations have become increasingly aware of the problems of C&D waste and have begun to undertake some measures for C&D waste processing. Several C&D waste management projects that have been implemented across various locations in India can be reviewed and analyzed for best practices (BMTPC, 2018; Development Alternatives, 2017). 1. The first C&D waste processing plant in India was commissioned in 2010 at Burari in North under a Public Private Partnership (PPP) agreement between North Delhi Municipal Corporation and ILFS Environmental Infrastructure & Services Ltd (IEISL) for treatment of 500 TPD C&D waste on a pilot basis. The plant currently operates at a processing capacity of 2000 TPD and demonstrates an economically feasible business model that could be adopted across India. Both dry and wet processing have been adoptedto recycle and process about 95% of incoming C&D waste into aggregates, manufactured sand, and finished products such as paver blocks, concrete bricks, drain slabs, etc. The produced materials meet Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) codes for construction applications and have been recommended for preferential procurement by public agencies. Three other C&D waste recycling plants have been commissioned by the Government of NCT of Delhi to cover all zones of Delhi. A second plant of capacity 500 TPD at Shastri Park in Delhi started operations in 2016. 2. Municipal Corporation (AMC) started a C&D waste processing plant of capacity 1100 TPD in 2014 under a PPP agreement with Amdavad Enviro Projects Pvt. Ltd (AEP). The plant currently operates at 300 TPD and processes C&D waste into aggregates, which in turn are used to prepare finished products such as paver blocks, concrete tiles, pre- cast toilets, park benches, etc. The preferential procurement policy of AMC facilitates the use of these products in government infrastructure projects. 22

3. A C&D waste recycling plant was set up by M/s Enzyme India Pvt. Ltd in 2014 for recycling 150 TPD of C&D waste at the project site of ‘Re-development of East Kidwai Nagar, ’. The plant worked on PPP agreement with 100% buyback of recycled products by National Buildings Construction Corporation (NBCC). The recycled produce such as fine/coarse aggregates and manufactured soil were used as fill material and in the manufacture of downstream products like RMC, bricks, tiles, and blocks. 4. A non-governmental organization named ‘Youth for Unity and Voluntary Action (YUVA)’ undertook recycling of 1500 tonnes of C&D waste generated from City and Industrial Development Corporation of Ltd (CIDCO)- YUVA Building Center (CYBC) in Kharghar, during the period 2002–2006. The C&D recycling demonstration manufactured building materials such as bricks, blocks, concrete, sand substitute, and coarse aggregates.

The materials which cannot be used by the recyclers can be used for land filling in the abandoned mines which will help in reclamation of land. Further this land can be put to use for plantation to increase green cover and multipurpose trees may be planted to get benefits for community and government both.

(2.4) Bio- Medical Waste Management Plan

‘Biomedical waste’ (BMW) means any waste, which is generated during the diagnosis, treatment or immunization of human beings or animals or research activities

A lot of the waste from Health Care Facilities is infectious biological material or objects, which although they are considered “communal” waste, are in fact contaminated. These latter items include textiles, bandages, syringes, and other objects exposed to infection through contact with patients.

Very much of the waste from hospitals is made up of special surgical instruments, such as surgical implants and other implements employed during operations.

(2.4.1) Present Scenario in the district:

There are about 551 healthcare facilities including Pvt Nursing Homes in the district and 294 Clinical Lab/Dental Clinic in the district which produces about 2 Lakhs Kg/Annum of Bio Medical Waste.

Those HCFs which have been granted CTE/CTO by JSPCB, Ranchi are linked with Common Bio- Medical Waste Treatment Facilities (CBMWTFs) for the proper disposal of Bio- Medical Waste, which is present outside the District.

(2.4.2) Action Plan for the management of Bio- Medical Waste: -

Thermal processes, irradiation processes and mechanical processes are ways used for treating bio-medical waste. Incineration, autoclaving, microwave irradiation, solar disinfection and chemical methods are means of treating biomedical waste. In the past, doctors routinely sterilized and reused medical tools like bandages and syringes. However, with the invention of polymers and other advanced biomedical materials, disposable medical products were designed to minimize infection. Safe and well-managed incineration to ensure that waste is fully burnt and there are no toxic emissions from CBWTFs: During incineration, a CBWTF has to ensure that the temperature in the primary chamber is around 800ºC and the temperature in the secondary chamber is around 1,050ºC. The gas residence time in the secondary chamber must be at least 2 seconds. The incinerator must have an efficiency of at least 99 per cent.

Since the biomedical wastes are serious issues and with the COVID playing a major role in slowing economy the disposal of the bio medical waste takes paramount importance and authorized vendors can be contacted for safe disposal of the waste.

Techniques of biomedical waste management include incineration, autoclaving, microwave irradiation, solar disinfection and chemical methods.

Thermal processes-These processes utilise heat to disinfect and they operate depending on the temperature. This includes incineration, autoclaving,

Incineration: This is a process of burning certain medical wastes such as wastes generated from veterinary facilities, medical research centres, pathological, trace chemotherapy and non-hazardous pharmaceutical wastes as it is considered the safest and most effective means of treatment and prevents harm to the environment. These wastes include both infectious and non-infectious and general housekeeping wastes. The only thing to be kept in mind is that the incinerated waste should be completely burned or else inadequately incinerated wastes can release pollutants that might be harmful. Researches have shown that population living near the old incinerators have a risk of getting cancer by 3.5%. Easiest way to get rid of bio-medical wastes is to incinerate them.

Solar Disinfection: This method uses the thermal effect of solar rays for disinfecting the biomedical waste. It can be used as a low cost technique for the countries which cannot afford costly treatment methods. It cannot be used for the treatment of cytotoxic, hazardous or radioactive waste.

Autoclaving: This is a thermal process in which waste comes in direct contact with steam in a controlled manner for disinfecting the waste for a sufficient duration. For easy treatment and for safety during operation, the horizontal system is preferred, specially designed for

treatment purpose. According to a research, for effective inactivation of microorganisms27 and bacterial spores, for a small amount of waste, a 121C temperature is required for 60 minutes. But autoclaves allow treatment for only limited quantities of the waste and release harmful gases.

Irradiation processes-In these processes, wastes are exposed to ultraviolet or ionizing radiation in an enclosed chamber. These systems require post shredding to render the waste unrecognizable.

Microwave Irradiation: In microwave irradiation method, the inactivation of microbial infection is done by using the heating effect of electromagnet rays. The frequency of these rays lies between 300 and 300,000 MHz. Most of the microorganisms gets destroyed a frequency of about 2450 MHz.

Chemical processes-In this process chemicals act as disinfectants. Chemicals such as Sodium hypochlorite, dissolved chlorine dioxide, hydrogen peroxide, dry inorganic chemical and ozone are examples of such chemicals. Most chemical processes are water- intensive and require neutralising agents.

Mechanical processes- Mechanical process involves the breaking down or the distortion of the physical form of the wastes in order to further treat the residues by either disposing them off to the secured landfills and burying them 3-4 metres below ground level and later covering them with soil. The pit where the wastes are buried should be covered with lime within 50 cm of the surface, before filling the rest of the pit with soil. Multipurpose plants can then be planted over it for the local people to use, such plants include those that have medicinal use. It is a must see that the secured landfills are not accessible to grazing animals.

Each and every healthcare facilities which generates biomedical waste, needs to set up requisite treatment facilities to ensure proper treatment of wastes and its disposal so as to minimise risk of exposure to staff, patients, doctors and the community from biomedical hazards. Safe and effective management of biomedical waste is not only a legal necessity but also a social responsibility.

Few measures are listed below: Biomedical Waste marked vehicles must be increased. - Alternatives transport must be used to collect the waste in case the driver is not present or bad condition of vehicles. - Biomedical Waste vehicles should be covered properly to prevent the waste from leaking. - Biomedical Waste should not be mixed with other municipal waste. 28

- Red/Yellow/Blue/Black Colour code for Biomedical Waste must be followed. - Regular training programme should be organised for the staff. - Biomedical Waste Management Board must be established in each district.

29

(2.5) Hazardous Waste Management Plan

Hazardous wastes are those that may contain toxic substances generated from industrial, hospital, some types of household wastes. These wastes could be corrosive, inflammable, explosive, or react when exposed to other materials. Some hazardous wastes are highly toxic to environment including humans, animals, and plants.It comprises the waste generated during the manufacturing processes of the commercial products such as industries involved in petroleum refining, production of pharmaceuticals, petroleum, paint, aluminium, electronic products etc.

Hazardous Waste management is a major challenge in urban areas throughout the world. Without an effective and efficient waste management program, the waste generated from various human activities, both industrial and domestic, can result in health hazards and have a negative impact on the environment.

(2.5.1) Present Scenario in the district:

There are 55 Nos. of Hazardous wastes generating unit present in the District which is generating around 54410 MT/Annum (including Incinerable, Landfillable & Recyclable hazardous waste) of Hazardous Waste.

(2.5.2) Action Plan for the management of Hazardous Waste: - Hazardous waste can be in multiple forms. One out of many forms are paint cans, deodorant bottles, detergent water etc. Household waste also contributes to hazardous waste. Using these paint cans and deodorant bottles by recycling it can reduce the environmental impact of hazardous waste, adding to optimal utilization of resources and also create an employment opportunity for the vendor who will be involved in purchasing these reusable materials. hazardous waste, adding to optimal utilisation of resources and also create an employment opportunity for the vendor who will be involved in purchasing these reusable materials.

Hazardous waste that cannot be reused shall be dumped in landfill sites, provided the area should be away from habitation and shouldn’t impact the biotic species in and around the landfill site. It should be dumped 3 to 4 meters below ground.

Dumping these will reduce the mortality count of biotic species in the district, thus conserving the ecosystem.

(2.6) E- Waste Management Plan

Electronic Waste is emerging as a serious public health and environmental issue in India.[1] India is the "fifth largest electronic waste producer in the world"; approximately 2 million tons of e-waste are generated annually and an undisclosed amount of e-waste is imported from other countries around the world.

Electronic waste or E-Waste describes discarded electrical or electronic devices. Used electronics which are destined for refurbishment, reuse, resale, salvage recycling through material recovery, or disposal are also considered e-waste.

(2.6.1) Present Scenario in the district:

At present E-waste management is in nascent stage in the district and collection centres established by PRO (Production responsibility organization) regarding collection of E-waste which are in operation are approx. 11 in number. Initially only informal trading, dismantling, and recycling of e-waste by concerned mobile service centres etc exists in the District.

(2.6.2) Action Plan for the management of E- Waste: - The citizens have a very important role to play in e-waste management. We casually throw many small gadgets along with dumped waste and many people openly burn those accumulated waste. A number of hazardous substances such as dioxins and furans are released in the process which we breathe. In order to minimize the e-waste; proper sorting of e-waste has to be done in the first step. The ones that can be used further shall be sold to the vendors, and those parts can be used in the other devices. Whereas, the ones that cannot be further reused, shall be dumped in the landfill 6 feet under the ground, plantation can be done on those landfill. Relevant authority from Municipal Corporation can contact the vendor, named Deshwal Waste Management Private Limited, Deshwal Waste Management Private Limited has obtained authorizations from the appropriate governmental agency for their processing facilities. Deshwal Waste Management Pvt. Ltd who is our Authorized Recycler collects it and transports it to the collection centre. No fee is charged from the consumer for giving the goods for recycling and there is no monetary benefit included in the Recycling Program.

• Producing a computer along with its monitor takes at least 1.5 tons of water, 48 pounds of chemicals, and 530 pounds of fossil fuels. • Compared to disposal in landfills or by incinerators, reusing or recycling computers can create 296 more jobs per year for every 10,000 tons of computer waste processed. • Only 20% of e-waste is documented to have been collected and recycled, despite high- value recoverable materials such as and . • By recycling 1 million cell phones, more than 35,000 pounds of copper, 33 pounds of palladium, 772 pounds of , and 75 pounds of gold can be recovered. • The excessive amount of lead in e-waste, if released into the environment, could cause severe damage to human blood and kidneys, as well as central and peripheral nervous systems

Action plan

• Linkage with certified e Waste management company operating in Jharkhand • ‘Sanshodhan: An E-Waste Exchange’ is a digital platform available for corporates and society to directly transfer their electronic waste to government authorized, technically competent e-waste recyclers. “Smart, convenient, transparent, sustainable and economically valuable,” the platform aims to serve urban citizens and businesses that consume electronic and electrical equipment and to enable development of e-waste-free smart cities. 34

(2.7) Water Quality Management Plan

The River Subarnarekha stretch is from Dam to and probable sources of pollution are from: - Industrial area effluent discharge and Domestic Sewerage discharge.

Figure: - 05 River Map of Ranchi District

(2.7.1) Action Plan for the management of Water Quality: - Water management plan will provide information about current water uses and charts a course for water efficiency improvements, conservation activities, and water-reduction goals. The plan establishes the priorities and helps to allocate funding for water-efficiency projects that provides the biggest impact.

The proposed plan is in line with the-

• Policy statement that ties water management plan to the long-term need of the district • Will also help in planning of resource allocation to meet the water management plan.

Understanding the current water uses and costs is essential to a comprehensive plan. This step involves collecting water and cost data and determining a baseline that will be used to

35

calculate cost savings and determine overall water reduction potential associated with water- efficiency opportunities.

At the facility level, this task includes the following sub steps:

Determine the marginal per-unit cost of water and sewer service

Verify the appropriate rate structure is applied

Identify services the utility might provide to help manage water efficiently.

Utility information should include the following for potable and non potable water:

Contact information for all water and wastewater utilities

Current rate schedules and alternative schedules that are appropriate for a particular use or facility type to ensure the best rate

Copies of water and sewer bills for the past two years to identify inaccuracies and ensure the appropriate rate structure is applied

Information about rebates or technical assistance from the utilities to help with facility water planning and implementing water-efficiency programs. Energy utilities often offer assistance with water-efficiency programs

Contact information for the federal agency or office that pays the water and sewer bills

Production information if the facility produces its water or treats its own wastewater, or both.

After collecting water use data, take the following sub steps:

Determine a baseline annual water use for a specific year or an average water use over several years. If monthly data are available, plot the monthly use over time. Is water use increasing, decreasing, or steady?

Try to determine what caused the major trends. Is there a seasonal pattern to water use? This is often the case when irrigation water is used or cooling water demand increases in the 36 summer months. Analyzing the data in this way will help the District Adminstration understand current water use trends.

At the agency level, this step involves collecting detailed water use and cost data and real property inventory from all sites. When collecting this information, consider that you need to separately gather data about potable water use and industrial, landscaping, and agricultural water use (primarily nonpotable water) that is associated with reduction targets.

Use FEMP’s Water Evaluation Data Tool to collect the necessary data on water end-uses. This tool provides a method for collecting comprehensive water data during a building and campus walk-through survey to conduct a comprehensive water evaluation.

(2.8) Domestic Sewage Management Plan

Domestic sewage carries used water from houses and apartments; it is also called sanitary sewage. Sewage is generated by residential, institutional, commercial and industrial establishments. It includes household liquid from toilets, baths, showers, and kitchen and sinks draining into sewers. In many areas, sewage also includes liquid waste from industry and commerce. The separation and draining of household waste into grey water and black water are becoming more common in the developed world, with treated grey water being permitted for use for watering plants or recycled for flushing toilets.

Sewage treatment is the process of removing contaminants municipal wastewater, containing mainly household sewage plus some industrial wastewater. Physical, chemical, and biological processes are used to remove contaminants and produce treated wastewater (or treated effluent) that is safe enough for release into the environment. A by-product of sewage treatment is a semi-solid waste or slurry, called sewage sludge. The sludge has to undergo further treatment before being suitable for disposal or application to land.

(2.8.1) Present Scenario in the district:

There are around 207636 households in Ranchi District at present and according to 2011 India census Ranchi has a population of 10.7Lakhs

(2.8.2) Action Plan for the management of Domestic Sewage: -

Domestic wastewater, stormwater and urban runoff Domestic wastewater consists of blackwater (excreta, urine and faecal sludge) and greywater (kitchen and bathing wastewater). The mix and composition will depend on the water supply and sanitation facilities available, water use practices and social norms. Currently, there has no means of disposing of sanitary wastewater from toilets, and an even greater number lack adequate means of disposing of wastewater from kitchens and baths in Ranchi. The sanitation ladder used for MDG monitoring illustrates the range of sanitation types, ranging from no sanitation facilities at all (where people practice open defecation) to facilities that have been defined as improved sanitation.

The example facilities outlined include both on-site and off-site (sewered) systems. Although improved sanitation facilities are considered to “likely ensure hygienic separation of human excreta from human contact”, the sanitation ladder currently considers the containment part, of the sanitation service chain and counts use of facilities at the household level. Future ladders will

39

endeavor to cover the overall function of a sanitation system. Many of the current problems relating to domestic wastewater, particularly in urban and peri urban areas, come from a lack of consideration of the other components of the service chain. As mentioned above, there are effectively two basic wastewater management systems: on-site (or non-sewered) and off-site (generally sewered with centralized treatment). In sewered systems the removal/ transport part of the service chain is performed by the sewer; water washes the waste through a pipe system. This may require the use of pumping stations to ensure that the waste reaches the treatment or disposal point. In on-site systems, waste accumulates on-site in a pit or septic tank, which requires periodic emptying or resiting; in the case of emptying, waste is taken by road for treatment and/or disposal. Dumping of untreated septic tank/pit contents into rivers, lakes and the sea is, in many low- and middle-in- come countries, a regular practice.

Action Plan

Sewage Treatment Plant

Sewage or domestic/municipal wastewater is a type of wastewater that is produced by a community of people which contains impurities solids, liquid or gases or their combinations in such a concentration that is harmful if disposed of into the environment. Sewage, before being disposed of either in river or land has generally to be treated to make it safe.

Treatment methods

1.Physical Sewage Treatment

Physical methods are used for cleaning the sewage. In this process screening, sedimentation and skimming are used to remove the solids. No chemicals are involved in this process.

Sedimentation is a process in which settling down the suspended insoluble particles due to gravity. Once the insoluble material settles down at the bottom, you can separate the pure water.

Another effective physical water treatment technique includes aeration. This process consists of circulating air through the water to provide oxygen to it.

Filtration, the third method, is used for filtering out all the contaminants. You can use special kind of filters to pass the wastewater and separate the contaminants and insoluble particles present in it. The sand filter is the most commonly used filter.

2.Biological sewage treatment

This uses various biological processes to break down the organic matter present in wastewater, such as soap, human waste, oils and food. It can be divided into three categories:

• Aerobic processes: Bacteria decomposes the organic matter and converts it into carbon dioxide that can be used by plants. Oxygen is used in this process. • Anaerobic processes: Here, fermentation is used for fermenting the waste at a specific temperature. Oxygen is not used in anaerobic process. • Composting: A type of aerobic process where wastewater is treated by mixing it with sawdust or other carbon sources. 41

Secondary treatment removes most of the solids present in wastewater, however, some dissolved nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorous may remain.

Chemical Water Treatment

Chlorine, an oxidizing chemical, is commonly used to kill bacteria which decomposes water by adding contaminants to it. Another oxidizing agent used for purifying the wastewater is ozone. Neutralization is a technique where an acid or base is added to bring the water to its natural pH of 7.

42

(2.9) Industrial Waste Water Management Plan

(2.9.1) Present Scenario in the district:

At present there are approx. 377 + (as per the data provided by Department of Industries) registered industries located in Ranchi District.

Scale wise breakup: -

Sl. Scale Number of registered No. industries

2. Orange 374

3. Green 186

There is 24 Nos of waste water producing industry in the district. Quantity of waste water generated by water consuming industries are mostly treated and then reused. Time to time surprise checking would be done to ensure that no untreated water is released in the water bodies.

(2.9.2) Action Plan for the management of Domestic Sewage: -

Effluent Treatment Plant needs to be set up by every industry set in the District. This will help in using the treated waste water properly within the industry, thus, reducing the cost of 43

procuring water for additional purposes in the industry. Time to time the effluent treatment plants and their related

impacts on the environment and district shall be checked by the concerned authorities. Industries using the treated waste water shall be recognised and considered as a model example for using the best out of the waste.

Industrial wastewater Among the possible classifications of industrial waste- waters, one distinguishes between diffuse industrial pollutants, such as those from mining and agro- industrial, and end-of-pipe point discharges and mostly illegal discharges from tankers. The former are frequently highly polluting and difficult to contain and treat, while the latter can be contained, controlled and treated in circumstances where there is sufficient political will, regulatory power and resources (economic and human capacity) to ensure compliance. Large end-of-pipe discharges are generally easy to identify and can be regulated, controlled and treated. However, some wastewaters arise from concentrations of small enterprises that discharge wastewaters wherever they can and not necessarily to any identifiable sewer. Many are highly polluting containing acids and toxic metals from, for example, small metal finishing (plating) enterprises which have developed in specific localities. Not only do such discharges inflict considerable environmental damage especially to sensitive ecosystems but they also often come into direct (as well as indirect) contact with humans and animals with consequent dam-age to health.

The discharge/disposal of industrial wastewaters can be classified as follows:

• Uncontrolled discharges to the environment.

• Controlled (licensed) discharges to the environment (water courses) possibly after pre- treatment.

• Illegal, mostly clandestine, discharges to sewerage systems.

• Controlled discharges to sewerage systems under agreement or licence, possibly with pre- treatment.

• Wastewaters collected by tanker for treatment/disposal elsewhere.

44

(2.10) Air Quality Management Plan

Main Sources of Air pollution in the district are Industrial (Brick kiln/Stone crushers/ Stone and Sand Mines/ Stockyard, Mills), Vehicular traffic, and Domestic cooking (Rural areas).

This plan aims to reduce the sources and amount of air pollutants responsible for reducing the ambient air quality.

There are around 199 Air Polluting industries located in the District, mainly Stone Crushers, Brick kilns and Rice Mills, there are also one or two nos. of Tyre Pyrolysis Unit present.

(2.10.1) Action Plan for the management of Air Quality: -

Handling loose materials generates fugitive dust that affects the air quality of the surrounding area. To minimize such impacts following measures has been proposed:

All the loose material either stacked or transported will be provided with suitable covering such as tarpaulin, etc.

Water sprinkling shall be done at the locations where dust generation is anticipated.

Air pollution can damage crops and trees in a variety of ways. Ground-level ozone can lead to reductions in agricultural crop and commercial forest yields, reduced growth and survivability of tree seedlings, and increased plant susceptibility to disease, pests and other environmental stresses (such as harsh weather).

A Gurugram based tech company CHAKRINNOVATION has developed world’s first retro-fit emission control device for diesel generators ranging from 15 kVA to 2000 kVA. This technology can capture over 90% of particulate matter emissions from the exhaust of diesel generators without causing any adverse impact on diesel engine. Captured pollution is converted into usable products like inks and paints. Chakr Innovation aims to create pioneering, sustainable and scalable technologies to combat the grave threat posed by pollution. Our mission is to develop and implement innovative solutions which can effectively control pollution – saving the natural product, a retrofit emission control device for diesel environment and protecting people’s health. Device, aims at addressing one of the most pressing issues for humankind "availability of breathable air by capturing pollution at source". Chakr Shield is an innovative emission control device that captures pollution at source and converts it into something useful! The device is called a Chakr because it’s a cyclic process, which converts the pollutants into ink and paint — which is a value-added product.

(2.11.2) Action Plan for the management of Mining Activity: -

Environmental management plan includes protection/mitigation/enhancement measures as well as suggesting post project monitoring programme.

The management action plan aims at controlling pollution at the source level to the possible extent with the available and affordable technology followed by treatment measures before they are discharged. Fully conscious towards environmental responsibility towards the Stone beneficiation process, the plan focuses, apart from other relevant concerns, on the following important aspects, a) Dust suppression measures by water sprinkling and b) Proper maintenance of vehicles and equipment. The different environmental components that are identified in the assessment chapter are dealt hereunder with necessary environmental management plan.

1.AIR QUALITY MANAGEMENT

Mining and related activities with transportation, grinding and other generates dust which causes pollution. The dust and its particulate matter cause allergies to the people who are working on the mines and machines including transportation vehicles. Measures like sprinkling of water on regular intervals based on the temperature and wind condition will be applied for reducing dust particles in the wind. Further vehicles and other equipment will be keep in proper shape for reducing pollution due to smoke and dust particles. Dust emissions and particulate emissions will be controlled by water spraying through sprinklers at all the sources of dust formation and corresponding Mitigative measures are elaborated as follows:

49

• Proper blasting pattern will be followed for effective rock fragmentation and generation of minimal fine dust to open atmosphere. • Regular water sprinkling at dust emanating sources viz., drilling, blasting and transportation through haulage roads, etc will be carried out. • Periodic maintenance of transport vehicles and equipment will be carried out to check emission levels.

Greenbelt will be developed that will act as a pollution sink. Overloading of trucks will be avoided and carrying the rocks in covered trucks will be taken up to minimize pollution level 4 Regular ambient air quality monitoring shall be carried out to ensure the air pollutants are kept under permissible limits always.

1.1 Controlling Dust Levels Dust would be generated during mining, crushing operations, and also during handling and transportation of the material. The suggested control measures are:

1.1.1 Mines Dust suppression systems (water spraying) to be adopted at- Faces/sites while loading. Use of sharp teeth for shovels. Dust extraction systems to be used in drill machines- Use of sharp drill bits for drilling holes and drills with water- flushing systems (wet drilling), to reduce dust generation.

1.1.2 Haulage Regular water spraying on haulage roads during transportation- of excavated material by water sprinklers. Transfer points shall be provided with appropriate- hoods/chutes to prevent dust emissions.

1.2 Controlling CO Levels: The concentration of CO in the ambient air was below detectable limits at all the air quality monitoring locations. Expected increase in the CO concentration is very low as CO emissions from mining operations are less compared to other pollutants. Heavy and light vehicles are the major sources of CO in the mine. All vehicles and their exhausts would be well maintained and regularly tested for pollutants concentration.

1.3 Controlling NOx Levels NOx emissions in the mine mainly occur during blasting operations. The main reasons for NOx emissions are 5 Poor quality of explosives having large oxygen imbalance. This may be due to: Manufacturing defect; Use of expired

50 explosives in which ingredients have disintegrated. Incomplete detonation, which may be due to low Primer to column ratio.

1.4 Occupational Health & Safety Measure to Control Dust Inhalation All the above precautions would be adopted to prevent dust generation at site and to be dispersed in the outside environment. However, for the safety of workers at site, engaged at the strategic locations/dust generation points like drills, loading & unloading points, crushing etc, dust masks would be provided. Dust masks would prevent inhalation of RPM thereby reducing the risk of lung diseases and other respiratory disorders.

2 NOISE POLLUTION CONTROL The ambient noise level monitoring carried out in and around the proposed mine shows that the ambient noise levels are well within the stipulated limits of CPCB. Within an operational mine, major noise sources are blasting, operation of mine machineries and equipment, crushing units and belt conveyor. Noise generation may be for an instant, intermittent or continuous periods, with low to high decibels. To keep noise generation in control, latest sophisticated technology and equipment have been considered. Drills, loaders, dumpers etc with larger capacities possibly will be acquired to reduce the number of operational units at a time, thereby reducing the noise generating sources. The equipment systems will include cabins to ensure that the operators and other work persons, in and around the operating equipment, have comfortable work stations. To keep the ambient noise levels within the permissible limits of 85 dB (A), the following measures should be adopted Personal who are exposed to critical locations in the quarry will be provided with PPEs Innovative approaches of using improvised plant and machinery designs, with in-built mechanism to reduce sound emissions like improved silencers, mufflers and closed noise generating parts. Effective blast design so that there will be minimal noise and ground vibrations during blasting, Procurement of drill, loaders and dumpers and other equipment with noise proof system in operator’s cabin. Confining the equipment with heavy noise emissions in sound proof cabins, so that noise is not transmitted to other areas. Regular and proper maintenance of noise generating machinery including the transport vehicles and belt conveyors, to maintain the noise levels. Provision would be made for noise absorbing pads at foundations of vibrating equipment to reduce noise emissions. Provision of protective devices like ear muffs/ear plugs to workers who cannot be isolated

51 from the source of high intensity noise, e.g. blasting

3 WATER ENVIRONMENT As this is an open cast mining method it will not generate any wastewater as there is no mineral processing involved. The mining of rock does not involve any treatment or beneficiation by using water. Therefore, the question of disposal of water will not arise.

Moreover, mining activity much above the ground water level doesn’t lead to any ground water contamination. However, in order to mitigate any likely impacts the following management for control of water pollution is proposed. In anticipation of seasonal streams and runoff in the core zone, channels and bunds would be constructed and maintained to avoid any erosion and contamination. Garland drains will be constructed around the boundary of the mine lease area outside the boundary wall to divert rainwater away from the site. The mine pit water collected due to rains will be utilized for water spraying on the haul roads and for watering plantation. This water will be harvested for utilization in plantation watering, spraying on the haulage roads and waste dumps.

4 LAND ENVIRONMENT The mined out pit area will be backfilled and developed for stabilization and plantation of native species will be carried out. The top soil will be utilized for plantation of trees in the area. This would not only make the area aesthetically beautiful but also check on the soil and land erosion.

4.1 Rocks for landscaping after the quarrying activities are over, these sites will be splattered with the leftovers of rocks and boulders. These boulders and rocks can support the growth of mosses and lichens, which will act as ecological pioneers and initiate the process of succession and colonization. The boulders of moderate size will be used to line the boundary of a path.

4.2 Laying of the top soil The depressions/craters filled up with rock aggregates will be covered with top soil. Fungal spores naturally present in top soil will aid plant growth and natural plant succession. The top soil will be further enriched by organic manure and Vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal (VAM) fungi. This will help in the process of soil Reclamation and early establishment of seedlings.

52

5 WASTE DISPOSAL MANAGEMENT Since the proposed project is mining of rock, there will not be much of waste generated due to mining. After the quarrying activities are over, these sites will be splattered with the leftovers of rocks and boulders. The boulders of moderate size will be used to line the boundary of a path. The disintegrated rock will be used as sand material for road making.

Metals are for the most part infinitely recyclable. Many have inherent characteristics such as durability, strength and anticorrosive properties that improve the sustainability of the products in which they are used: enhancing longevity, lowering maintenance requirements and providing higher functionality.

Use of mining waste:

Waste Rock: It is used as backfill, landscaping material and aggregate in road construction, or can sometimes be used as feedstock for cement and concrete or reprocessed later to extract minerals and metals.

Manganese tailings: It is used in agroforestry, buildings and construction materials, coatings, resin, glass and glazes.

Clay rich tailings: It is used for making bricks, floor tiles and cement.

Slag: It is used for road construction, and in concrete and cement.

Bauxite red mud: It is a solid alkaline waste produced in aluminium refineries. Red mud is used as a soil amender, in wastewater treatment and as a raw material for glass, ceramics and bricks.

Mine water: It is used for dust suppression and mineral processing, industrial and agricultural uses, as a coolant.

Sludge: Sludge from acid rock drainage treatment, which is high in , is sold commercially for use in pigments.

53

Smelters: Smelters include acid plants to convert sulphur dioxide to sulphuric acid, a useful industrial chemical. Retrieved from: www.miningfacts.org/Environment/ How-are-waste-materials-managed- atmine-sites/#sthash.6lLXHOVF.dpuf

(2.12) Noise Pollution Management Plan

Noise can be defined as unwanted or undesired sound and Noise pollution simply means when there is a lot of noise in the environment which is consequentially harming the environment. Like smoking, noise pollution affects active and passive recipients when noise levels cross certain safe boundaries. Noise pollution affects both human health and behaviour. Noise pollution also impacts the health and well-being of wildlife.

Most activities that cause pollution are essential to meet the needs of the growing population and development. Therefore, preventive measures to minimize pollutants are more practical than their elimination.

(2.12.1) Action Plan for the management of Noise: - The noise waste is created by vehicles, industries, mines and social events organised in the district. The following steps can be taken up for reducing noise pollution.

Areas with maximum movement of lights and heavy motor vehicles like cars, trucks and 2 wheelers will lead to increase in noise levels. In order to minimize the noise levels by providing plantation as a buffer on the sides of roads. Informatory signboards will be placed at different locations to encourage vehicle owners to blow horn less and follow the emission standards fixed by Government authorities.

To prevent any occupational hazard, ear muff / ear plug shall be given to the workers working around or operating plant and machinery emitting high noise levels. Use of such plant or machinery shall not be allowed during night hour (10:00 pm and 6:00 am). Careful planning of machinery operation and scheduling of operations shall be done to minimize such impact. Construction shall clearly specify the use of equipment emitting noise of not greater than 90 dB for eight-hour operation shift.

Isolation of noise generation sources and temporal differentiation of noise generating activities.

Diesel Generator sets will be kept in the acoustic chamber and ambient noise will be within the CPCB standard limits.

Proper traffic management and promoting ways to reduce honking. Informatory signboards shall be placed at various locations to motivate people to honk, only when required.

55

All the vehicles should carry PUC certificate and must undergo PUC test as mandated by Central Motor Vehicle Rule, 1989.

Replacement of vehicles which has been purchased and used for more than 20 years. Since after 20 years these vehicles emit huge amount of pollution, thus, harms the environment in multiple ways.

CHAPTER-III

Conclusion

Mankind’s survival is dependent on a sustainable environment. Ever since anthropogenic activities started plundering the natural resources and have jeopardized the sustainable future. It has become an obligation to rectify the mistakes that has been committed in the past.

With this view in mind, it is a great opportunity for us to join hands and work towards a common goal. Hence, efforts have been made to create a District Environmental Plan for Ranchi District by considering model District Environment Plan of CPCB and covering the necessary details covered therein. All the associated concerned departments involved in the preparation of DEP have helped in furnishing data required for the preparation of Plan.

The users of this Plan should be aware that this plan is not a- substitute to Govt. rules and regulations but rather a skeletal framework with action points, roles, and responsibilities of stakeholders. These action plans are only evocative but not exhaustive.

There’s a famous quote by George Bernard Shaw “Progress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything.”

So, let us sincerely follow the principle of 3Rs i.e. reduce, reuse, recycle which have echoed around the world for sustainable development.
