EIA/EMP Studies for Expansion of Refinery from 20 MMTPA to 46 MMTPA and Petro-Chemical Complex at Vadinar, Dist Draft Report EIA/EMP Studies for Expansion of Refinery from 20 MMTPA to 46 MMTPA and Petro-chemical Complex at Vadinar, Dist. Devbhumi Dwarka, Gujarat by M/s Nayara Energy Ltd. (Volume 1) For M/s Nayara Energy Ltd., Jamnagar CSIR-National Environmental Engineering Research Institute (NEERI), Delhi Zonal Centre, Naraina, New Delhi 110028 Head Quarter - Nehru Marg, Nagpur 440 020 (QCI/NABET Accreditation letter no. QCI/NABET/ENV/ACO /18/0592 dated March 15, 2018) February 2019 EIA/EMP Studies for Expansion of Refinery from 20 MMTPA to 46 MMTPA and Petro-chemical Complex at Vadinar, Dist. Devbhumi Dwarka (Gujarat) by M/s Nayara Energy Ltd. CSIR-NEERI-DZC, Draft Report – February 2019 Foreword M/s Nayara Energy Ltd., erstwhile Essar Oil Ltd., is operating a 20 MMTPA refinery complex at Vadinar, Devbhumi Dwarka, Gujarat. In addition, it has a strong retail network of about 4,900 fuel stations catering to different parts of the country. The network is being further expanded with about 2600 more retail stations in near future. The company, earlier in 2005-06, had planned for expansion of the refinery to 60 MMTPA capacity along with petrochemical project. Environmental Clearance was also obtained from the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEF&CC), which was valid upto September 2018. The company has now revisited and revised it’s expansion plan for the optimum total refining capacity of 46 MMTPA along with petro- chemical complex, by addition of another 26 MMTPA crude processing, thereby reducing by 14 MMTPA from the earlier plan of 60 MMTPA. Proposed expansion of refinery and petrochemical complex shall take place at the land available within the existing refinery premises. M/s Nayara Energy Limited proposes to use latest and best available refinery technologies that shall ensure maximum conversion efficiency, production of superior grade clean products and minimum losses shall be selected for the entire expansion project involving refinery and petrochemical complex. With a view to assessing potential impacts arising out of the proposed expansion of refinery with petrochemical complex, M/s Nayara Energy Limited, the project proponent approached CSIR-NEERI to conduct environmental impact and risk assessment (EI&RA) study as a prelude to the preparation of effective environmental management plan (EMP). Baseline data collected for air, noise, water, biological, land and socio-economic components of the environment during Summer 2018 has formed the basis for identification, prediction and evaluation of impacts due to the proposed developments, as also for the delineation of a pragmatic environmental management plan in this EIA Report. The cooperation and assistance rendered by the staff of Nayara Energy Limited in the preparation of this report is gratefully acknowledged.

India has been endowed with a vast marine ecosystem and bio-diversity, which sustains a large number of species and the coastal populace is dependent on the resources from this marine eco-system. The need for protection of this eco-system has been acknowledged worldwide and UNCLOS 1982 prescribes the responsibility on the Coastal States in preserving and protecting the marine environment and associated resources. The Maritime Zones of India Act 1976, enables the Government to take measures for protection of the marine environment. The Coast Guard Act 1978 states that the preservation and protection of marine environment and control of marine pollution is the function of the Indian Coast Guard. The ICG has been accordingly nominated in 1986 as the Central Coordinating Authority for oil-spill response in the Maritime Zones of India and Coast Guard officers have been empowered under the Merchant Shipping Act 1958, for taking necessary actions against polluters.
