The Appendix-X of the notification describes the procedure for preparation of District Survey Report The main objective of the preparation of District Survey Report is to insure identification of areas of aggradations or deposition where mining can be allowed, an identification of areas of erosion and proximity to infra structural structures an installation where mining should be prohibited an calculation of annual rate of replenishment allowing time for replenishment after mining in that area. Every efforts have been made to cover sand mining locations, areas & overview of mining activity in the district with all it's relevant features pe11aining to geology & mineral wealth in replenishable and non-replenishable area of rivers, stream and other sand sonrces. This report will be model and guiding document which is a compendi'um of available mineral resources, geographical set up, Environmental and ecological set up of the District and is based on data of various department, published repo11s, and Websites. The data may vary due to flood heavy rains and other natural calamites. Therefore, it is recornnlcnded that Sub Divisional Level Committee may take into consideration all its relevant aspects/data while scrutinizing and recommending the application in suitability of the site for mining or prohibition thereof-to the concemed Authority. jr . /' ".l:!ii-' ,,' SURVEY REPORT OF DISTRICT DEHRADUN As per Gazette notification of 15 1h Jan1.!ary 20) 6 of Ministry of EnvirolUnent, Forest and Climate Change a Survey shall be can'ied out by the District EnvirolUnent Impact Assessment Authority (DElAA) with assistance of Irrigation Depm1ment, Forest Department, Mining Dep311ment and Revenue Department in the district for preparation of District Survey Report as per the sustainable Sand mining guidelines to insure identification of areas of aggradations or deposition where mining can be allowed; and identification of areas of erosion and proximity to infrastructuraI structures and installations where mining should be prohibited and calculation of aIU1Ual rate of replenishment and allowing time for replenishment after mining in that area. Every efforts have been made ' to cover sand , bajri and boulder mining location, areas & overview of Mining activity in the district with all it's relevant features peltaining to geology & mineral wealth in replenishable and non replenishable area of rivers. stream and other river bed minerals sources. The mineral potential is calculated based on field investigation & geology of the catchment area of the river or streams. Also as per the site conditions and locations, depth of minable mineral is defined. The area for removal of the mineral in a river or stream is decided depending on geomorphology & other factors like clay and silt are excluded as waste while calculating the mineral potential of palticular river or strean1. The District Survey Report shall form the basis for application for envirolUllent clearance, preparation of report and appraisal of projects. The repOlt shall be updated once every five years. 1. lntl-oduction.
