2.7.2 LOCAL GEOLOGY

Geology of the mining lease area The rocks exposed in the area, under consideration, apparently belong to Khorip Group (previously known as Semri Series) under the Lower Vindhyan of Vindhyan Super Group. In Nayagaon-Chenpura Limestone Deposit, vast area comprising 206.354 ha consists of a conformable sedimentary package of shale and limestone. The general trend of rock formations is N-S, NNE-SSW to NE-SW with generally shallow to moderate dip either easterly or westerly. The western part of the area is occupied by Shale or it is terminal area of mineralization while eastern part of the area shows limestone mineralization proved from 17m to 98m depth i.e. middle to eastern part of central zone in Chenpura village and northern part of the area i.e. Nayagoan village has been proved for 40-69mthick limestone and this limestone is resting over the Calcareous Shale/Shale. The local stratigraphic succession in the ML area is as follows:-  Soil/ Alluvium  Grey Limestone (GL)  Pink Limestone-2

Final EIA / EMP Report

 Light Greenish Grey Limestone with thin interbands of greenish calcareous Chert (LGL)  Pink Limestone-1 • Limestone interbanded with shale • Calcareous Shale • Grey, green, brown Shale • Sandstone/Grit/Conglomerate (Source: Approved Mining Plan & Progressive Mine Closure Plan, Page no. 18) Description of Litho units Sandstone/Grit/Conglomerate This is the oldest unit exposed close to western ML boundary. Though this formation was a part of PL area, but in ML it is deducted. This forms a linear strike-ridge in the west-central part of the area close to the village Chenpura in the Central block. The conglomerate is polymictic with large pebbles (2-3cm dia) of mainly sandstone, quartz vein and quartzite. The pebbles are well rounded with low to moderate sphericity. The matrix is siliceous. The grit contains numerous sand grains of grit size which may be sub-rounded to sub-angular. The matrix is predominantly ferruginous with a distinct brownish color due to aerial oxidation. Stratigraphically, the unit may be considered as the part of the Jhiran sandstone and conglomerate formation of the Khorip Group. Shale This overlies the sandstone unit. Outcrops of greenish/reddish brown shale are found in the western part of the southern and northern block of the ML area. The rock is fine to medium grained, thinly bedded and flaggy, often containing coarser detrital/clastic white mica grains in considerable amount at places. In contact with the overlying limestone, it is often calcareous. In drill cores, the shale tends to be pinkish to brownish in color. Stratigraphically, this unit may be equated with the Bari Shale formation overlying Jhiran Sandstone of Khorip Group. Carbonate rocks in the ML area Different types of limestone mapped in the area are described below: Pink Limestone (PL) There are two stratigraphic bands of this unit: PL-1 (older) and PL-2 (younger). PL-1 overlies the Shale horizon in the western part of the deposit, while PL-2 directly overlies the Light Greenish Grey limestone and in turn overlies PL-1. Both PL-1 and PL-2 look similar megascopically and hence are described together. The rock is light pink to dark pink in color, compact, fine-grained and often shows stringers of calcite and quartz-calcite aggregates. Light Greenish Grey Limestone This limestone is light grey to light greenish grey in color. This is the most predominant carbonate rock exposed in the prospect. It is fine-grained, micritic and compact in nature. Occurrence of thin shale partings is also observed. Grey Limestone This is the youngest unit exposed in the ML with restricted occurrence in the eastern part of the deposit overlying the light greenish grey limestone. The rock is grey to dark grey in colour, has a

fine grained texture and is compact in nature. The occurrence of thin calcite veins and shale partings is commonly observed. STRUCTURE Regionally, the rocks of Lower Vindhyan which essentially a conformable sedimentary package of sandstone-shale-carbonate sequence belonging to the Khorip Group of Precambrian age. These rocks are a little deformed and the general trends of rocks show NNW - SSE and shallow dip towards either east or west. The regional trend of the formations as controlled by the first folding is nearly N-S. This has a strong bearing in the exploration of limestone in the ML area. The elongation of the area is roughly N-S while the trend of the formations in the central part of the Southern and Northern blocks is NNE-SSW. As a result of this, the basal formations including the shale and sandstone units get exposed in the PL area adversely affecting the economic potential of the prospect. Surface geological plan & Section is enclosed as Annexure VIB & VIC respectively. TOPOGRAPHY & DRAINAGE IN LEASE AREA

Topography The area has a very gently undulating with flat terrain. The general slope of the terrain is from south to north and maximum elevation is 472m AMSL in the southern part and the minimum elevation is 450m AMSL in the northern part of the lease area. Drainage pattern Regionally the area is marked by dendritic drainage pattern mainly comprising primary and secondary streamlets following the gradient from south to north and discharge majority of surface runoff into westerly side of the lease area. The area is generally flat and gently undulating, dissected by streamlets which ultimately drain into the nallas. There are two small seasonal nallas in the area with westerly flows. One is located in southern block trending NW-SE, and another is located in the northern block trending east-west occurs in the northernmost part of the lease area, forming the boundary. Both nallas have already deducted from the granted lease area, however nallas are partly within the lease area. Based on the observations from nearby wells and water bodies, the water table in the area ranges from 15m to 25m.

Powder factor; 1 kg/8 tonnes Average daily excavation: 2.50 MT/300 =8333 tonnes Average quantity of explosive require per day =8333/8=1041.67 kg This quantity will be changed after enhancement of production as well as where the mining is done in OB as hard strata like shale/sandstone/siltstone. Storage of explosive: Initially, explosive will be purchased from the authorized agencies holding the licensee i.e. from the controller of explosive Agra or Nagpur. After that a magazine of capacity 05 tons might be installed within the ML area as shown on plan with all precautionary & statutory provision of safety will be adopted. Crushing with Screening Limestone will be loaded by hydraulic excavator into the dumper and dumper will transported to crusher (located in Mining area), stockyard through well maintained haul roads. Capacity of Crusher is 2 x 500 TPH with Screening (In Phased Manner, initially 500 TPH will be installed and later on additional 500 TPH crusher will be installed). The limestone is utilized for cement manufacturing by dry process. There is no wet processing or beneficiation necessary to upgrade the limestone. Also the quality of limestone is quite uniform and rather slightly better than the average quality required for manufacture of cement. Only crushing of limestone is required which is presently being carried out in plant periphery. Looking towards conservation of fuel oil (transportation expenses), installation of crushing with screening arrangement is done within the ML area. Crushed limestone will be transported through tipper up to both the cement plants of Nimbahera & Mangrol. Feasibility of OLBC will be explored for transportation of crushed limestone from crusher to cement plant. The thin layer of top soil which exist in mine is being removed and used for green belt development. The sub-grade mineral is being loaded with excavator and transported to sub-grade stock. The use of Sub-grade mineral stacked is not possible until technological up-gradation takes place hence no proposal towards utilization of Sub-grade mineral is there. The blasted Cement grade limestone is being loaded by excavator and transported by Dumper to Crusher. The design capacity of the crusher is 500 TPH. The input size of the material being dumped in Crusher hopper is 1.2 X 1.2 X 1.2 Cu.m and the output size is 50 mm. A screen is installed at Crusher which screen out fine clay of -6 mm size and segregated by screen reject belt conveyor. The screen reject material is further used in haul road maintenance, levelling and balance reject material is being dumped in waste dumps. There is also a provision of bypassing the screen. The screen is kept in the circuit only when clay mixed limestone is being fed.

2.11 DESCRIPTION OF MITIGATION MEASURES

The mitigation measures given in this section are for management of the emissions (particulate or gaseous), Noise pollution, solid waste and water pollution generated from the mining operations to meet the environmental standards and environmental operating conditions.

A. AIR QUALITY MANAGEMENT

During Drilling Operation

 Sharp drill bits will be used for drilling and will be maintained periodically to reduce the generation of dust.  Drilling machines will be supplemented by wet drilling system to prevent the dust to get air borne.  Personal protective equipment’s will be provided to drill operators and his helpers. During Blasting Operation  Soil/Over burden clay is removed prior to working in the face.  Controlled blasting will be done in most scientific manner with the use of latest technology (NONEL) and optimizing the blasting parameters to control & prevent the dust to get air borne and also to control the fly rocks.  In place of secondary blasting rock breaker will be used for breaking over size boulders, which reduces the generation of dust and vibration. During loading operation

 Latest generation loading equipment’s like hydraulic excavators of large capacity i.e. 3.9 m3 buckets will be used and operated by skilled operators to load dumpers of 35 & 55

Final EIA / EMP Report

tonnes capacity. This will reduce the number of bucket fills from height which will help in generation of much less dust.  The propagation of this dust will be confined to loading point only and does not affect any person. Both the operators of excavator and dumpers present at that point operate the machine from a closed cabin and are also provided with dust masks/cotton cloth. During Crushing and Screening

 Flexibles curtains and bag filter will be installed at crusher unloading area to avoid fugitive emission.  Atomized water sprinklers will be installed at crusher site.  Crushed mineral will be transported to interlinked cement plant via road through covered tippers. During Transport operation

 Regular maintenance of haul road by grader and compactor;  Regular water spray through permanent sprinklers and water tanker;  Plantation will be done along the main haul road;  Strict speed limit (20-25 km/hr) of vehicles will be implemented.  Vehicles having valid PUC certificates will only be allowed in the transportation of mined out materials. Plantation work

 Top soil will be used for the plantation/green belt.  Out of total mining lease area, 80.03 ha area will be covered under plantation and green belt.

B. NOISE LEVEL MANAGEMENT

 Use of sharp drill bits to achieve optimum drilling performance and to reduce noise generation at source.  Noise & vibration generated from blasting will be for a very short duration and localized. However, Controlled Blasting will be done in accordance with standards prescribed by DGMS. Blasting will be conducted using ANFO and high explosives. NONEL shall be used to control ground vibration, noise and fly rocks.  Explosives charge per hole and per delay will be maintained as per DGMS guidelines and vibration study.  Blasting will be carried out during day time only and Rock breaker will be used to avoid the secondary blasting.  Regular maintenance, oiling and greasing of machines at regular intervals will be done to reduce generation of noise.  All employees will be provided with protective equipment, earmuffs and earplugs as a protective measure from the high noise level generated at the mine site and wherever required.  Out of total mining lease area, 80.03 ha area will be covered under plantation and green belt.

Final EIA / EMP Report

 Monitoring of noise and blast vibration will be carried out and record will be maintained.

C. WATER MANAGEMENT

The limestone and associated rocks do not contain any toxic substance so that there will not be any adverse on ground water quality. As the mining progresses in depth, it is likely that there will be seepage along with probability of ground water intersection. However, prior permission will be taken from GWA for intersection of ground water, if any and required measures will be adopted. Periodical monitoring of ground water quality will be carried out. There are two small seasonal nallas in the area with westerly flows. One is located in southern block trending NW-SE. Another one is located in the northern block trending east-west occurs in the northernmost part of the lease area, forming the boundary. Both nallas have already deducted from the granted lease area. However nallas are passing partially within lease. Following measure will be taken-  Protective bunds of 5m width and 2m height along the entire length of nalla will be constructed.  Plantation will be done for stabilization of bunds.  For crossing seasonal nalla, culverts will be constructed for the vehicle transporting limestone without affecting the natural course of nalla.  Natural Drains flowing inside the lease area will not be disturbed by the mining activity.  Check dams will be constructed across the seasonal nalla to prevent sedimentation/siltation of natural water courses with prior permission from Concerned Authority.  Garland drains/storm water drains along with siltation ponds at regular intervals will be constructed through proper plan and regularly de-silted and well maintained. Storm Water: Surface Runoff may carry sediments & silts to natural water bodies  Retaining Wall & Garland drains will be constructed around the working mine pits and temporary top soil dump to channelize rain water flowing into working mine pit.  Catch drains and siltation ponds will also be constructed within mine lease to check flow of surface runoff as well as to prevent siltation of natural courses.  Rainwater falling directly into the mine pits will be stored and used for plantation & dust suppression. Waste Water: Waste water will be generated from Workshop as well as Mine Office  Domestic effluent generated from mine office will be disposed off in soak pit via septic tank. About 2 KLD of domestic waste water generated from the mine office will be disposed in soak pit via septic tank.  About 4 KLD of waste water generated from HEMM washing will be passed through oil & water separator and treated water will be used for dust suppression in crushing.

Final EIA/EMP Report

Meteorological factors are time dependent and changes with respect to time thus meaningful interpretation can be drawn only from long-term reliable data. For collecting the baseline data, understanding of the meteorological conditions at the project site is done through annual records data obtained from India Meteorological Department (IMD). The prime importance of understanding the factor wind speed/wind direction from the IMD data was to determine the baseline monitoring sites for air with respect to the direction of the dominant meteorological factor. The nearest IMD stations to the mine site is located at Chittorgarh. Based on the previous IMD data [Climatological Normals (1981-2010)], the pre-dominant wind direction (seasonal as well as annual) was considered. As per the data, pre-dominant wind direction throughtout year was observed from North East, according to which, the locations for ambient air quality monitoring were selected. Seasonal windrose prepared based on secondary meteorological data (Figure 3.6) is given as under.

3.13 AMBIENT AIR ENVIRONMENT

Ambient air quality monitoring has been carried out within the study area to determine the baseline concentration of various air pollutants in the ambient air. It helps in providing a data base for predicting impact on the surrounding area due to a project activity. It will also be useful in ascertaining the quality of air environment in conformity to standards of the ambient air quality during operation phase of project. Monitoring schedule The air quality monitoring was done during Post Monsoon Season (October to December, 2020) within 10 km radius study area. Air quality monitoring has been carried out at 10 locations for 24 hours (twice a week) for three months (26 observations for one location). Parameters monitored are:

 Sulphur Dioxide (SO 2)

 Nitrogen dioxide (NO 2)

 Particulate Matter (PM 10 and PM 2.5 )  Carbon Monooxide (CO) The details of measurement methodology and test procedure are given in Chapter-4 (Environmental Monitoring Programme) of this report. The sources of air pollution in the region are dust rising from unpaved roads, domestic fuel burning, vehicular traffic, mining activities, crusher and cement plants located near by.

Final EIA/EMP Report

All the essential nutrients were observed to be present in a higher amount than the other micro nutrient and macro nutrient such as Nitrogen (90.55 to 190.91 kg/ha), Phosphorous (47.56 to 53.71 kg/ha), Potassium (183.25 to 267.77 kg/ha), Magnesium (241.14 to 561.32 mg/kg), Calcium (993.52 to 2131.67 mg/kg). Higher calcium values in the soil sample is due to the presence of slightly alkaline soil in nature within the area, thus would positively affect the plant growth. These results indicates that the soil quality within the study area is of a good quality and contains sufficient macronutrients which is vital for healthy plant life. These results shows that there is a need to replenish phosphorus to improve the productivity of the agricultural land in the study area and should be taken care in green belt development.

3.17.3.2 ANALYSIS OF FAUNA

The area is represented by fauna of Schedule I, II, III, IV, V category according to (IWPA) Indian Wildlife Protection Act, 1972. Mammals, Reptiles, Amphibians, Butterfly and Arthopods are commonly found species in the area. As core zone consists of limestone mine area, it has limited scope for holding the wildlife. Even though indirect evidences of Wildlife like Mangoose (Herpestes auropunctatus), Jackal (Canis aureus), Indian Hare (Lepus nigricolis)and Rat (Rattus rattus) were noticed in study area. Apart from Reserve & Protected Forests areas; buffer zone also consists of hillocks, open scrub land areas which give support to faunal diversity. Reserve and Protected Forest areas of buffer zone hold considerable Wildlife like Nilgai (Boselaphus tragocamelus), Jackal (Canis aureus), Indian Fox (Vulpes bengalensis), Hyena (Hyaena hyaena), Jungle cat (Felis chaus), Indian Hare (Lepus nigricolis), Common Langur (Presbytis entellus), Common Rat (Rattus rattus), Grey musk shrew (Suncus murinus) and Small Common Mongoose (Herpestes auropunctatus). Apart from this, some snake species like Rat Snake (Ptyas mucosa), Russell’s viper (Daboia russelii) were noticed. In Lizards, Garden lizard (Calotes versicolor) were observed. Fruit bats presence was also noticed in buffer zone. A list of faunal diversity found in the study area is summarized in the table below.

3.18 SOCIO-ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT

3.18.1 INTRODCUTION

An essential part of environmental study is socio-economic environment incorporating various facts related to socio-economic conditions in the area, which deals with the total environment. The Socio-economic study includes demographic structure of the area, provision of basic amenities viz., housing, education, health and medical services, occupation, water supply, sanitation, communication, transportation, prevailing diseases pattern as well as feature of aesthetic significance such as temples, historical monuments etc. at the baseline level. This baseline assessment helps in visualizing and predicting the possible impact depending upon the nature and magnitude of the project. Socio-economic study of an area provides a good opportunity to assess the socio-economic conditions of an area. This study may possibly facilitate a change in living and social standards of the area around the project. It can undoubtedly be said that this Mine will provide some direct and indirect employment and facilitate in improving the infrastructural facilities and standards of living of the area. The fabrics of socio-economic changes are so complicated that this study would seem to be extremely limited, almost superficial and at times subjective in nature. More thorough and quantified socio-economic study will undoubtedly require vastly longer time and resources, and is, therefore, beyond the scope of the present EIA study. This EIA will give a reasonably clear picture of the socio-economic conditions prevailing in the study area.

3.18.2 OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY

The objective of this socio-economic study is as follows:

 To identify the current socio-economic condition within the 10 km study area by understanding the determinants such as education, health, sanitation, water, employment transportation and communication, electrification and livelihood.  To identify the basic needs of the nearby villages within the 10 km of study area.  To contribute in the development and growth based on the identified needs of the nearby areas using practical strategic interventions under the CSR activities.  To provide the employment and improved living standards.

3.18.3 SCOPE OF WORK

To study the socio-economic environment of the 10 km study area.  Data collection through primary field survey and collate it with the secondary sources.  Identification and prediction of possible impacts from the proposed project.  Providing solutions and Mitigation measures.  Developing Action plan for implementation based on the mitigation measures.

3.18.7.2 VULNERABLE GROUPS

While developing an Action Plan, it is very important to identify the population which falls under the marginalized and vulnerable groups and special attention has to be given towards these groups while making action plans. Special provisions should be made for them. In the overview of villages, schedule caste (S.C.) population is 14 %, Schedule Tribe (ST) population is 9.8 % (See below Table).

3.18.7.3 LITERACY RATE AND OCCUPATION PATTERN OF SURVEYED VILLAGES

Literacy is the ability to read and write one’s own name and further for knowledge and interest, write coherently, and think critically about the written word. The analysis of the literacy levels is done in the study area. The 10 km radius study area demonstrates a literacy rate of 80% as per census 2011. The male literacy rate works out to be 71% whereas the female literacy rate, which is an important factor for social change, is observed to be 43% in the study area. This indicates that the education facilities in the villages are good but there is need to be aware as the female literacy as it is very important for our society and it is clear that the literacy rate of female is low in comparison to male.

ECONOMIC ACTIVITIES

The economy is defined by the occupational pattern and income level of the people in the area. The occupational structure of residents is studied with reference to work category. The population is divided occupation wise into three categories, viz., main workers, marginal workers and non-workers. The workers include cultivators, agricultural laborers, those engaged in household industry and other services. The marginal workers are those workers who are engaged in some work for a period of less than 180 days during the reference year. The non-workers include those engaged in unpaid household duties, students, retired persons, dependents, beggars, vagrants etc. besides institutional inmates or all other non-workers who do not fall under the above categories. Out of total population living in study region, only 46 % population is counted as working population while 54 % population is counted as non-working population.

3.18.7.4 BASIC AMENITIES

The study area has a significant percentage of tribal population and they live in dispersed settlements of several hamlets constituting together one revenue village. In such scenario it is not uncommon to find many hamlets in the tribal areas remaining unconnected by electricity and other infrastructural facilities, whereas electrification and other development facilities of a portion covering the main revenue village is shown in the official record. In all villages, basic facilities as road, school, drinking water, electricity, public transport etc. are available except some small villages and hamlets. Major infrastructure facilties like education, health centres, maternity clinic, veterinary hospitals, medical shops, etc. are available in few major villages. No Mobile Health Centres, Medical facilities, banks, Pharmacy and Medical shops are available in most of the villages. Communication facilities are good in the study area. telephone services, Radio and newspaper is available in the almost every village. Village is connected by the electricity and power supply is also good. Developing programs i.e. (Self Help Group, Development of women and children in rural area, Integrated Rural Development Program) are being carried out. Taking

everything into account, the basic amenities in the study area is not satisfactory and it needs to be improved. A. Education facilities Education and learning are one of the most important processes in today’s society. Education is not just restricted to teaching a person the basic academics, say computers, mathematics, geography or history, education is a much larger term. It is really a means to discover new things which we don't know about and increase our knowledge. Government has provided educational facilities in each village instead some villages do not have school facility. According to census india handbook 2011, Primary Schools are available in every villages and Middle, Secondary and Senior Secondary School (depend on population size) are available in some of the villages. It can be concluded from the available census data that people have to go far away from the villages for colleges and schooling. For higher education people have to migrate to the bigger cities. Educational and literacy details were collected from census india handbook 2011 and we observed lack of Education. After analysing the literacy rate from census data, we found that literacy rate is not good. Details of the literacy rate in the study area are given the below Table.The available educational structure for the population in the case study area is mentioned in the table eblow.

B. HEALTH FACILITIES:

Health is a premier asset of human capital which is an important factor for growth of any economy. It is a source of human welfare. Health and nutrition play a major role for developing a healthy society as it impacts the productivity of a person. The healthcare facilities in the study area consist of Primary Health Centre, Primary Health Sub- Centre’s; Maternity and Child Welfare Centre; Dispensaries and TB Clinic, Veternary hospitals, Non government medical facilities Medicine shops. TB clinic is available in Nimbahera Town. As per the data of 10 km radius study area collected from Census India Handbook 2011, medical facilities are needed to be improved by the Government as satisfactory facilities are not available for any medical emergencies. Patients have to move to Cities for any serious illness.

Figure: 3.15 Health facilities in the Study Area

C. DRINKING WATER FACILITIES: As per the data collected from census india handbook 2011, it has been noticed that the requirement of drinking water is being fulfilled by well water and handpumps. All villagers are availing drinking water facilities from ground water wells and Hand pumps. Although some other water sources like tanks, ponds are also available in almost every village. The drinking and domestic water sources are open wells and hand pumps and tanks.

CHAPTER–4 ANTICIPATED ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS AND MITIGATION MEASURES

4.1 INTRODUCTION

The environmental parameters likely to be affected by mining are related to many factors, viz. physical, social, economic, agriculture and aesthetic. Opencast mining involves drilling, blasting, excavation, loading, crushing, transportation, unloading etc. Blasted limestone will be loaded by large size hydraulic excavators into the dumpers for onward dispatch to the crusher (for limestone) and waste dump (for waste & soil). After mining, transportation of material from mine face to the crusher will be carried out by 55 tonnes capacity of dumpers. Crushed limestone will be transported to the Cement Plant situated at Village Mangrol & Nimbahera, Tehsil: Nimbahera, District: Chittorgarh, Rajasthan at distance of 27 km in North direction & 22 Km in NNW direction from mine site via 35 tonner capacity of tippers by road respectively. The operations may disturb environment of the area in various ways such as removal of mass, change of landscape, flora and fauna of the area, surface drainage and change in air, water and soil quality. While for the purpose of development and economic upliftment of people there is need for establishment of mining industries because the area is rich in mineral resources, but these should be environment friendly. Therefore, it is essential to assess the impacts of mining on different environmental and Socio-economic parameters before starting the mining operations so that abatement measures could be planned in advance for minimizing the impacts wherever feasible. The likely impacts on different environmental parameters due to the mine site location, possible accidents, mine design, development, operations & final closure of this mining project are discussed below.

4.2 METHODOLOGY OF IMPACT ASSESSMENT

The impact assessment has been undertaken following a systematic process that identifies, predicts and evaluates the impacts the project could have on aspects of the physical, biological, social/ socio-economic and cultural environment, and identifies measures that the project will take to avoid, minimise/reduce, mitigate, offset or compensate for adverse impacts; and to enhance positive impacts where practicable. The stages of the impact assessment process comprise of the following:  Impact identification: to identify the potential impact of the project on the various environmental parameters.  Impact prediction: to determine what could potentially happen to resources/receptors as a consequence of the project and its associated activities.  Impact evaluation: to evaluate the significance of the predicted impacts by considering their magnitude and likelihood of occurrence, and the sensitivity, value and/or importance of the affected resources/ receptors.

The impact of the proposed project is assessed on the basis of their characteristics i.e. nature, type, extent, duration, intensity and frequency and its significance. Characteristics of Impacts The impact is described in terms of its characteristics such as nature, type etc. Impact characteristics are given in table - 4.1. Table - 4.1 Impact Characteristics Characteristic Classification Description Nature Positive When impact is considered to represent improvement to baseline or impact introduce a new positive factor/change. Negative When impact is considered to represent adverse change from the baseline impact or introduce a new undesirable factor/change. Neutral When there is no impact to represent any change from the baseline and not introducing any new factor/change. Type Direct impact Resulting from a direct interaction between a project activity and the receiving environment / receptors. Indirect Resulting from other activities that happened as a consequence of the impact project. Cumulative Impacts that act together with other impacts (including those from impact concurrent or planned future third party activities) to affect the same resources and/or receptors as the Project. Extent Project Area When impact due to the project related activities is restricted within the premises of project area i.e. core zone. Local When impact due to the project related activities is restricted within the immediate surroundings i.e. upto 3 km radius. Zonal When impact due to the project related activities is restricted within the study area i.e. up to 10 km radius. Regional When an impact due to the project activity extends within as well as beyond 10 km radius. Duration Short - term When the impact is usually temporary or last for a short time or will have an effect soon rather than in the distant future. Long- term When impact would occur during the development of the project and either takes a long time or lasts a long time or cause a permanent change in the affected receptor/resource. Intensity Low When resulting in slight changes of prevailing baseline conditions and quality of existing physical environment is good. Ecological environment as

Final EIA/EMP Report

Characteristic Classification Description well as human receptors are not likely to be affected due to the proposed project activity. Medium When resulting in changes of prevailing baseline conditions which are within the benchmark norms and quality of existing physical environment shows some signs of stress. Ecological environment as well as human receptors could be sensitive to change in quality of prevailing baseline condition, but human receptors retain an ability to adapt to change. High When resulting in changes of prevailing baseline conditions which are exceeding the benchmark norms and quality of existing physical environment is already under stress. Ecological environment as well as human receptors would be impacted to the larger extent and the ability of human receptors to adapt to changes would be undermined. Frequency Remote (R) When resulting in remote or one off chance of an event due to an activity on a receptor/ resource. Occasional (O) When an impact due to an activity is occurring intermittently from time to time on a receptor/resource. Periodic (P) When an impact due to an activity is resulting on periodic basis for a week or a month on a resource/receptor. Continuous When an impact due to an activity is continuously resulting on a (C) resource/receptor.

Significance of Impacts Impacts are described in terms of ‘significance’. Significance is a function of the magnitude & sensitivity / importance of the impact. Classification of impact significance is given in table - 4.2. Table - 4.2 Significance of Impact Significance Description Insignificant Negligible impact or where a resource or receptor (including people) will not be affected in any way by a particular activity or the predicted effect is deemed to be ‘negligible’ or ‘imperceptible’ or is indistinguishable from natural background variations. Minor Where an effect will be experienced, but the impact is well within accepted standards/guidelines with or without mitigation. Moderate Where an effect will be experienced and the impact is within accepted standards/guidelines with mitigation. Major Impact where an accepted limit or standard may be exceeded or the impact occurs to the highly valued/sensitive resource/receptors.

Irreversible and Irretrievable commitments of environmental components

Final EIA/EMP Report

Determining the irreversible and irretrievable commitment of the resources is one of the major stages of impact evaluation, which gives an understanding about the potential impacts that are likely to affect future generations of the area and facilitates for adoption of proper mitigation measure regarding the same. Table - 4.3 Irreversible and Irretrievable commitments of environmental components Commitment of Description resources Irreversible Irreversible commitment of resources refers to the impact or loss of the resources that cannot be recovered or reversed. Irreversible is a term that describes the loss of future options. It applies primarily to the impacts of use of nonrenewable resources or to those factors that are renewable only over long periods of time. Irretrievable Irretrievable is a term that applies to the loss of production, harvest or use of natural resources. Irretrievable commitment of resources may be considered as the loss of resources as a result of change (both reversible & irreversible) due to any project activity that cannot be regained or recovered.

4.4 INTERACTION MATRIX

The interaction matrix enables a methodical identification of the potential interactions each project activity may have on the range of resources/receptors within the Area of Influence for the Project. The interaction matrix for the project activities and likely impacted resources/receptors is presented in Table - 4.4 which covers potential interactions, regardless of probability of occurrence. The matrix consists of a list of resources/ receptors that could be affected against a list of project activities. Entries in the matrix cells are tick marked to indicate whether:  An interaction is not reasonably expected (blank);  An interaction is reasonably possible and may lead to potential impact (tick marked).

4.5.1.10 MITIGATION MEASURES

The following mitigation measures will be adopted to mitigate air pollution generated due to the mining activities: During Drilling Operation  Sharp drill bits will be used for drilling and will be maintained periodically to reduce the generation of dust.  Drilling machines will be supplemented by wet drilling system to prevent the dust to get air borne.  Personal protective equipment’s will be provided to drill operators and his helpers. During Blasting Operation  Controlled blasting will be done in most scientific manner with the use of latest technology (NONEL) and optimizing the blasting parameters to control & prevent the dust to get air borne and also to control the fly rocks.  In place of secondary blasting rock breaker will be used for breaking over size boulders, which reduces the generation of dust and vibration. During loading operation  Latest generation loading equipment’s like hydraulic excavators of large capacity i.e. 3.9 m3 buckets will be used and operated by skilled operators to load dumpers of 35 & 55 tonnes capacity. This will reduce the number of bucket fills from height which will help in generation of much less dust.  Propagation of this dust will be confined to loading point only and does not affect any person nearby. Both the operators of excavator and dumpers present at that point operate the machine from a closed cabin and are also provided with dust masks/cotton cloth. During Crushing and Screening

 Flexibles curtains and bag filter will be installed at crusher unloading area to avoid fugitive emission.  Atomized water sprinklers will be installed at crusher site.  Crushed mineral will be transported to interlinked cement plant via road through covered tippers. During Transport operation  All the haulage roads including the main ramp will be maintained and watered regularly during the working shift to prevent generation of dust due to the movement of dumpers, water tankers etc.  Strict speed limit (20-25 km/hr) of vehicles will be implemented.  Vehicles having valid PUC certificates will only be allowed in the transportation of mined out and crushed materials.  Measures will be taken to reduce the diesel consumption during transportation. Plantation work  Top soil will be used for the plantation/green belt simultaneously.

4.5.2 IMPACT OF NOISE / VIBRATIONS AND MITIGATION MEASURES

4.5.2.1 IMPACT OF NOISE ON WORKING ENVIRONMENT

Mining operations for mine development, drilling, excavation, transportation and crushing of limestone are imperative that noise levels would increase. 1. Noise Generated due to Drilling, Excavation, Transportation, Crushing and Screening Various mining activities such as drilling, excavation, transportation and crushing will increase the noise level in surrounding environment. The drilling operations in the limestone mine will be carried out with drill machine. Noise levels in the working environment will be maintained

2. Noise Generated Due to Blasting

 Noise generated from blasting is for a short duration and is instantaneous.  Noise of blast is site specific and depends on type, quantity and strength of explosives, dimensions of drill holes and degree of compaction of explosive in the blast holes. 3. Noise Impact Analysis on Community

Baseline noise levels varied from 51.7 to 59.1 Leq dB (A) during day time and from 40.8 to 47.4 Leq dB(A) during night time. Overall, it can be stated that the impact on the present noise levels due to mining operations will mainly be restricted to the active mine lease area only and it will attenuate fast at ML boundary in majority of directions. Therefore, no significant increase in ambient noise levels is anticipated. METHODOLOGY & INTERPRETATION : Noise Impact Prediction has been carried out using iNoise Software V2020.0 by DGMR Software (A division of DGMR Consulting Engineers, Netherlands). This software works on the principal method of calculation of ISO 9613. This model has been used for the prediction of noise level due to the area source for this mining

project .

4.5.2.2 MITIGATION MEASURES TO REDUCE AMBIENT NOISE LEVELS

The following control measures will be adopted to keep the ambient noise levels within the limits:-  Use of sharp drill bits to achieve optimum drilling performance and to reduce noise generation at source.  Noise & vibration generated from blasting will be for a very short duration and localized. However, Controlled Blasting will be done in accordance with standards prescribed by DGMS. Blasting will be conducted using ANFO and high explosives. NONEL shall be used to control ground vibration, noise and fly rocks.  Explosives charge per hole and per delay will be maintained as per DGMS guidelines and vibration study.  Blasting will be carried out during day time only and Rock breaker will be used to avoid the secondary blasting.  Regular maintenance, oiling and greasing of machines at regular intervals will be done to reduce generation of noise.  All employees will be provided with protective equipment, earmuffs and earplugs as a protective measure from the high noise level generated at the mine site and wherever required.  Out of total mining lease area, 80.03 ha area will be covered under plantation and green belt.  Monitoring of noise and blast vibration will be carried out and record will be maintained.

4.5.2.4 IMPACT OF VIBRATION DUE TO BLASTING

Ground vibration, fly rock, noise, dust and fumes are the deleterious effects of blasting operation on environment. The explosive energy generates a seismic wave in the ground, which can cause significant damage to structures and disturbance to human occupants. When an explosive charge is fired inside the blast hole it is converted into hot gases and sound which exert intense pressure on the blast-hole walls. High intensity shock waves propagate radially in all directions and cause the rock particles to oscillate. This oscillation is felt as ground vibration. Blasting, in addition to easing the hard strata generates ground vibrations and instantaneous noise. Ground vibration from mine blasting is expressed by amplitude, frequency and duration of blast. The variables, which influence ground vibrations, are controllable and non- controllable. The non-controllable variables include general surface terrain, type and depth of overburden. Similarly, the controllable variables include type of explosives, charge per delay, delay interval, direction of blast progression, burden, spacing, specific charge and coupling ratio. The oscillation of rock particles is called Particle Velocity and its value is called Peak Particle velocity (PPV), which is measured in millimetres per second. The standards for safe limit of PPV are established by Director General of Mines Safety for safe level criteria through Circular No. 7 dated 29.08.1997. The safe level criteria PPV as mentioned in Circular No. 7 of DGMS are presented below: Table - 4.13 Permissible Peak Particle Velocity (mm/s) Dominant Excitation Frequency (Hz) S. No. Type of Structure < 8 Hz 8 - 25 Hz > 25 Hz A) Buildings/structures not belonging to the owner 1. Domestic houses/structures (Kuchcha brick and cement) 5 10 15 2.

Domestic houses/structures (Kuchcha brick and cement) 10 15 25 2. Industrial buildings (RCC and framed structures) 15 25 50 (Source : DGMS Circular No. 7 dated 29.8.1997) As the distance increases the PPV value is likely to reduce. Following mitigation measures will be adopted to combat the ground vibrations due to blasting:

Final EIA/EMP Report

 Ground vibrations will not affect the structures in the vicinity of ML area as controlled blasting will be done within the standards prescribed by DGMS.  Explosive charge per hole and per delay will be optimized and maintained as per DGMS guidelines.  NONEL and bottom hole initiation system with optimal charge per delay will be used to reduce the noise level, vibrations and fly rocks.  Over charging will be avoided. The maximum charge per delay will be kept within limit to minimize ground vibration  Blasting will be carried out during day time only.

Final EIA/EMP Report

in the northernmost part of the lease area. Both nallas have already deducted from the granted lease area.  A part of seasonal nalla that is located in southern block is flowing through mining lease area.  Increase in suspended solids due to soil run-off during heavy precipitation due to loose soil and loose of carrying capacity of Nallah.  Water quality like turbidity may be change due to direct run off. Mitigation measures to protect Nallah  Protective bunds of 5m width and 2m height along the entire length of nalla will be constructed and Plantation will be done for stabilization of bunds.  For crossing seasonal nalla, culverts will be constructed for the vehicle transporting limestone without affecting the natural course of nalla.  Natural Drains flowing inside the lease area will not be disturbed by the mining activity. 50 m safety barrier will be left along the Nala.  Check dams will be constructed across the seasonal nalla to prevent sedimentation/siltation of natural water courses with prior permission from Concerned Authority.  Garland drains/storm water drains along with siltation ponds at regular intervals will be constructed through proper plan and regularly de-silted and well maintained.  Garland land design is enclosed as Annexure XIV with this Final EIA/EMP Report

4.5.3.2 IMPACT ON GROUND WATER AND MITIGATION MEASURES

There will be impact on ground water by following ways:

1. Ground water pollution by toxic substances: Ground water pollution can take place only if the mining rejects contain toxic substances, which get leached by the precipitation of water and percolate to the ground water table thus polluting it. Any nearby wells or other sources of water can be rendered unfit for drinking and even for industrial use. The mineral limestone and associated rocks do not contain any toxic substance. Therefore, there is no significant impact of mining activities on any source of water and its quality. 2. Ground water Withdrawal: Total water requirement for the project is 96.5 KLD (92.5 KLD fresh water). Initially, during the plan period total fresh water 92.5 KLD water will be sourced from Ground Water after taking the prior approval from CGWA. Fifth year onwards, 2.5 KLD water for drinking & domestic purpose will be sourced from Ground Water while remaining 90 KLD water will be sourced from the mine sump. Waste water of 4 KLD from HEMM washing will be used for dust suppression in crushing after removal of oil & grease content. 3.

4.5.4 IMPACT ON SOIL / LAND USE PATTERN AND MITIGATION MEASURES

4.5.4.1 IMPACT ON SOIL ENVIRONMENT

As per approved mining plan, total quantity of Soil/alluvium generated is about 89580 CuM in first five years period and respectively which will be separately dumped in the earmarked locations within the ML area. Top soil will be separated and used for plantation and greenbelt development simultaneously. The OB (shale/ siltstone/ reject material) will be used for backfilling, later on the backfilled area will be reclaimed by plantation. No major impact on soil of the study area is envisaged due to mining activities, as mining process neither involves any wet mineral beneficiation process or any chemical mineral beneficiation process. Fugitive dust of mining area will mainly be confined within ML area and will not impact soil of buffer zone. Further, dust in mining area is of neutral nature and does not contain toxic elements which may impact soil. Greenbelt area shall be developed in 7.5 m safety barrier all around the ML and this will help to contain fugitive dust within ML area itself. Run Off  Construction of Protective bunds around the pit with soil generated during mining so that rainwater will be channelized towards temporary unused pit/water reservoir.  Bunds will be stabilized by greenbelt plantations development at the rate of 2500/ha.  No erosion wash off will be directly allowed to go to the Natural System as it will be arrested by constructing Bunds/ Check dams/ check filters.  Construction of garland drain and retaining wall and sedimentation pits to channelized the surface runoff  Garland drains will be provided all around the excavation to prevent flow of surface rainwater/runoff from surrounding areas in the working pit. Soil Erosion  Green belt will be done on 11.0 ha area in 7.5 m safety zone of lease boundary  Plantation will be done on 4.0 ha area on safety barrier along habitation, road, nalla etc.  The increased green cover will substantially prevent soil erosion. Hence, no major impact on soil of the study area is envisaged due to the proposed mining activities, as mining process neither involves any wet mineral beneficiation process nor any chemical mineral beneficiation process.

Final EIA/EMP Report

based on eligibility, and suitability. Mining activities will directly give employment opportunity to about 58 persons. Employment benefits are further detailed in Section 8.2 of Chapter 8. Community Skills Development: Local community will be benefitted from the training programmes that will be instituted by JKCL to enable the community labor force to work for their livelihood/Self-growth. This training will improve their skill sets that will not only benefit JKCL but also the community at large during and after the project life. Improved Standard of Living: Employment opportunities created by the project and skill development activities carried out under CSR & EMP, will increase income of local community and therefore improve the overall standard of living in the area. Economic Exposure and Development: Implementation of the project will make opportunities for sustainable livelihood, better infrastructure facilities and services available to the people. This will expose and introduce the local population to factors of economic development including the banking system, financial services and credit and investment schemes. Impact on Civic Amenities The impact of the proposed limestone project on the civic amenities will be positive. With improved transportation facilities, educational facilities and other recreational facilities etc. there will be improvement in civic amenities. The communication facilities will also improve in the area. Population Growth Preference will be given to suitable local people in employment. Hence the project does not aim to contribute significantly in the population influx & only marginal population influx is designated for the proposed project.

4.5.5.2 ADVERSE SOCIAL IMPACTS

Health Impacts: The project may trigger negative health impacts through increased dust, population influx which might introduce new diseases in the area and pressure on sanitation facilities. Noise and Vibration: The process of mining will entail drilling, blasting, excavation, and transportation. These activities generate noise and vibration. The impact of noise and vibration from the epicenter of these activities could have effects on the population living around these areas. The excessive vibration could lead to collapse of the structures. Livelihood Change Presently livelihood depends on agriculture & industries in the nearby area. After the implementation of this mine, employment opportunities will be generated which will further improve the economic status & living standard of the people.

Final EIA/EMP Report

Population Growth This project will not have any substantial impact on the population growth. The proposed limestone project will generate employment opportunities for the people of nearby villages rendering positive impact on the area on the whole.

4.5.5.3 MITIGATION MEASURES

Mitigating Health Impacts: As mentioned that the incremental GLCs for various air pollutants will be restricted within the mining lease area and the impacts will be negligible on the nearby villages after implementation of all mitigation measures. Nevertheless, awareness programmes on health hazards will be conducted to create awareness amongst the employees as well as the local population. JKCL will consider Health facilities under its CSR activities Health Care Facilities Proper health care facilities will be provided to the employees of limestone mine along with their families. The medical facilities in form of primary medical camps will also be extended to local people in the nearby areas under CSR activities. Managing Loss of Livelihood and Income: It is proposed that entire land within the ML area shall not be acquired in one go. Land purchase shall be done in phases as per the requirement for mining purpose. This is proposed in order to ensure minimal disturbance of the land & associated people. In the proposed mining activities, preference to the suitable land oustees & agricultural labourer would be given for employment opportunities etc., in various sectors based on their capabilities. The Company will organize vocational training, entrepreneur development programmes for the PAFs including women members and will provide advice for starting suitable small scale industry. JKCL will encourage entrepreneurship amongst PAFs or their qualified family members by awarding services, contracts for activities such as canteens, vehicle hiring, maintenance of gardens, office services and cleanliness, courier services, and material supplies To cushion the local population against impacts of mine closure, adequate advance intimation will be given to employees and contractors to allow them to seek alternative opportunities. Skills development programmes will also be undertaken by JKCL to ensure sustainable livelihood for people of the nearby areas.

7.3 HYDRO-GEOLOGICAL STUDY AND RAINWATER HARVESTING PLAN

 Total water requirement for the proposed mining project will be about 96.5 KLD (Fresh water 92.5 KLD and recycled water 4 KLD).  Initially, during the plan period total fresh water 92.5 KLD water will be sourced from Ground Water. NOC from CGWA has been obtained vide NOC no CGWA/NOC/MIN/ORIG/2021/11940 dated 21.05.2021. Fifth year onwards, 2.5 KLD water for drinking & domestic purpose will be sourced from Ground Water while remaining 90 KLD water will be sourced from the mine sump. Waste water of 4 KLD from HEMM washing will be used for dust suppression in crushing after removal of oil & grease content.  Topographically, the mining lease area has a very gently undulating with flat terrain. The general slope of the terrain is from south to north and maximum elevation is 472m AMSL in the southern part and the minimum elevation is 450m AMSL in the northern part of the lease area.  The average annual rainfall of Neemuch district is 940 mm.  The general ground level is 467 AMSL and Depth to water levels in pre-monsoon period ranges between 18 to 20 m bgl while in post-monsoon season, it ranges between 16 to 18 m bgl.  Ultimate working depth of the mining operation will be 79m bgl. As the mining progresses in depth, it is likely that there will be seepage along with probability of ground water intersection. NOC from CGWA has been obtained vide NOC no CGWA/NOC/MIN/ORIG/2021/11940 dated 21.05.2021. Therefore, no adverse impact on water quality is envisaged due to the proposed mining project and entire seepage will be duly utilized for various conjunctive purposes.  Physio-Chemical analysis of surface & groundwater samples reveals that groundwater near proposed mine site is fit for human consumption and other purposes as all the major parameters were found within permissible limits prescribed by Indian Standard: 10500-2012.  Total recharge of the buffer zone is 31.874 mcm/annum while total groundwater draft is 22.45 mcm/annum. The groundwater development in the area is about 70.4% of total groundwater recharge. Therefore, buffer zone is coming under Safe category as per groundwater development status.

Detailed Hydro-geological study has been carried for the proposed mining project. Report of the same with Rain water harvesting plan has been prepared and annexed as Annexure VB with this Final EIA/EMP Report.

7.4 REHABILITATION & RESETTLEMENT PLAN

Total mining lease area is 206.354 ha, out of which 140.039 ha is Private land, 3.627 ha is Industrial Land and 62.688 ha is Government land which spreads in 2 villages namely Nayagaon & Chenpura . As per khasra details there are 156 PAFs involved in which 147 PAFs having land only and 9 PAFs

having houses on Govt. Land (8 in Nayagaon village and 1 in Chenpura village) which will be displaced due to the mining activity.

JKCL has following options for acquisition of land for its proposed mining project:

 Option 1: Acquire land falling in the mining lease area through provisions of LARR Act, 2013  Option 2: Land acquisition through mutual agreement with the land holders falling in the mining lease area at negotiated rates and terms and conditions. JKCL proposes to procure land under option 2. Land will be purchased in transparent manner in mutual agreement with the land holders at mutually agreeable rates and terms & conditions. It is proposed that entire whole land within the ML area shall not be purchased at once. Land purchase shall be done in phase wise as per the requirement for mining purpose. There will be no forcefully land acquisition commenced. This is suggested in order that to ensure minimal disturbance of the land & associated people. As per the JKCL the total agreed compensation is proposed to be paid in three parts, however the onus of accepting proposed approach lies with the land owners only. 1. Lump payment (40%) 2. Payment in the form of Fixed Deposit (40%) 3. Payment in the form of Annuity (20%) 1. Lump sum payment

 JKCL will initially provide a lump sum payment of 40% of total agreed compensation in joint bank account (Name of husband & wife), in case of widow and widower money will be transferred in single name bank account.  JKCL will provide some guidance and training program on how PAFs will use that money as per their area of interest with the help of some local NGOs.

7.5 RISK ASSESSMENT AND DISASTER MANAGEMENT PLAN

7.5.1 DEFINITION

A major emergency in a work is one, which has the intensity to cause serious injury or loss of life. It may cause extensive damage to property and serious disruption both inside and outside the work. It would normally require the assistance of emergency services to handle it effectively. Emergency may be caused by a number of different factors; it will normally manifest itself in two basic forms viz fire, explosion or toxic release.

7.5.2 SCOPE

An important element of mitigation is emergency planning i.e. recognizing that accidents are possible, assessing the consequences of such accidents and deciding on the emergency procedures, both on site and off site that would need to be implemented in the event of an emergency. Emergency planning is just one aspect of safety and cannot be considered in isolation.

7.5.3 OBJECTIVE

The objective of onsite disaster management plan for the captive mine is to be in a state of perpetual readiness through training and development to immediately control and arrest any emergency situation so as to avert a full fledged disaster and the consequence of human and property damage and in the event of a disaster still occurring, to manage the same so that the risk of the damage to life and property is minimized. JKCL will make a document elaborating the procedure for Emergency Preparedness & Responses. The overall objectives of the emergency plan are: • Identifying hazardous activities • Assessment of risk level and severity in different operations • Identification of control measures • Setting monitoring process • Reduce the impact of mishaps of all kinds • Reduce the inherent potential for major accidents It is a hard rock area and as such no serious disaster is foreseen. However, accidents cannot be ruled out in the mine. High risk accident are not anticipated in the area because the mining in not hazardous. Mining operations may be carried out by taking all the safety measures, but there is always some element of danger or risk in it. Due to deployment of heavy machineries and large scale workings, there are a few chance of un-avoidable accident likely to occur for this, Safety Engineer’s regular inspection required will be undertaken. Following risks are anticipated:  Failure of benches  Fall of machinery/ person from benches  Failure of transport machinery

Final EIA / EMP Report

Minimizing the effects may include prompt action, rescue, first aid, and evacuation, firefighting and also passing on information promptly to people living nearby.

Methodology of Risk assessment:-

 Collection of information & identification of hazard  Classify their severity and probability of occurrence  Identification of exposed risks  Assess the risk and risk rating based on 1. Probability 2. Exposure 3. Consequence  Prioritization of the risks  Implementation of control measures  Monitoring risk assessment  Evaluation and correction Risk assessment is mainly based on the environmental impact of various parameters.

i. Land Contamination

The potential for contamination during operation of ML area site is overburden dump & top soil which is regarded as to contaminate land. However during the plan period soil/ alluvium will be generated which will be temporarily dumped in the western side of the proposed five year working area and these dumps will be rehandled and used for backfilling when the mineral will be exhausted in the working pit. As far a top soil is concerned part of top soil will be used for afforestation and the remaining top soil will be dumped along the nallah and road safety zone and afforestation will be carried out.

ii. Aquatic Toxicity

The risk assessment in aquatic toxicity system is based on the total metal concentration in various chemical form or oxidation state. Limestone and the associated rocks does not contain appreciable concentration of toxic elements.

iii. Acid Mine Drainage

The mining of limestone does not involve any processing operation by using chemicals. Hence there is no risk at the ML area site with regard to control of acid mine drainage.

iv. Tailing Dam

Will not arise, as the crushing does not involve usage of water.

v. Human Health

During Environment Impact Assessment study, it is found that the toxicity is nil. Hence there is no risk involved to human health due to the proposed mining operation.

It is based on those incidents identified by the works management, which could affect people and the environment outside the works. Thus, the off-site plan follows logically from the analysis that took place to provide the basis for the on-site plan and the two plans therefore complement each other. The

M/s. J.K. Cement Ltd. 258 J.M EnviroNet Pvt. Ltd Nayagaon & Chenpura Limestone Deposit (ML Area: 206.354 ha) with Proposed Production Capacity 2.502 Million TPA ROM (Cement Grade Limestone: 0.876 Million TPA & Subgrade Limestone: 1.626 Million TPA), Soil/Alluvium: 0.048 Million TPA, Waste: 0.5 Million TPA; Total Excavation: 3.05 Million TPA along with 2 x 500 TPH Capacity of Crusher with Screening at Village: Nayagaon, Tehsil: Jawad & Village: Chenpura ,Tehsil: Neemuch, District: Neemuch, State: Madhya Pradesh. Final EIA / EMP Report

responsibility for the off-site plan will be likely to rest either with the works management or with the local authority. Either way, the plan identifies an emergency coordinating officer who would take overall command of the off-site activities. Consideration of evacuation includes the following factors:  In the case of a major fire but without explosion risk (e.g. an oil storage tank), only houses close to the fire are likely to need evacuation  If fire is escalating very fast it is necessary to evacuate people nearby as soon as possible.  In acute emergency people are advised to stay indoors and shield themselves from the fire.

A. ASPECTS TO BE INCLUDED IN AN OFF-SITE EMERGENCY PLAN

Some of the aspects to be included in off-site emergency plan are as follows: a) Organization: Details of command structure, warning systems, implementation procedures, emergency control centers, name and appointments of incident controller, site main controller, their deputies and other key personnel. b) Communications: Identification of personnel involved, communication center, call signs, network, list of telephone numbers. c) Special Emergency Equipment: Details of availability and location of heavy lifting gear, bulldozers, specified fire-fighting equipment, fireboats. d) Voluntary Organizations: Details of organizers, telephone numbers, resources, etc. e) Meteorological information: Arrangements for obtaining details of weather conditions prevailing at the time and weather forecasts will be made. f) Humanitarian Arrangements: Transport, evacuation centers, emergency feeding, treatment of injured, first aid, ambulances, temporary mortuaries. g) Public Information: Arrangements for: - (i) Dealing with the media-press office (ii) Informing relatives, etc. h) Assessment: Arrangements for: - (i) Collecting information on the causes of the emergency (ii) Reviewing the efficiency and effectiveness of all aspects of the emergency plan.

B. ROLES OF MAJOR HAZARD MANAGEMENTS

Where the local authority has the organization to formulate the plan, the role of management in off-site emergency planning will be to establish liaison with those preparing the plans and to provide information appropriate to such plans. This will include a description of possible on-site

M/s. J.K. Cement Ltd. 259 J.M EnviroNet Pvt. Ltd Nayagaon & Chenpura Limestone Deposit (ML Area: 206.354 ha) with Proposed Production Capacity 2.502 Million TPA ROM (Cement Grade Limestone: 0.876 Million TPA & Subgrade Limestone: 1.626 Million TPA), Soil/Alluvium: 0.048 Million TPA, Waste: 0.5 Million TPA; Total Excavation: 3.05 Million TPA along with 2 x 500 TPH Capacity of Crusher with Screening at Village: Nayagaon, Tehsil: Jawad & Village: Chenpura ,Tehsil: Neemuch, District: Neemuch, State: Madhya Pradesh. Final EIA / EMP Report

accidents with potential for off-site harm, together with their consequences and an indication of the relative likelihood of the accidents. Advice should be provided by works managements to all the outside organizations which may become involved in handling the emergency off-site and which will need previously to have familiarized themselves with some of the technical aspects of the works activities, e.g. emergency services, medical departments, etc.

C. ROLE OF THE EMERGENCY COORDINATING OFFICER

The various emergency services will be coordinated by an Emergency Coordinating Officer (ECO) who is likely to be a senior police officer but, depending on the circumstances, could be a senior fire officer. The ECO will liaise closely with the site main controller. Again depending on local arrangements, for very severe incidents with major or prolonged off-site consequences, the external control may pass to a senior local authority administrator or even an administrator appointed by the Central or State Government.

D. ROLE OF THE LOCAL AUTHORITY

Neemuch district head quarter is located only at a distance of 10 km in SE direction from the site. The site is also well connected to Nayagaon & Chenpura by road. Beside the above, following facilities are available at surrounding localities. Fire Brigades is available at Nayagaon Government Hospital, Nayagaon is at approx 1.50 km away from the ML Area. Police Station at Nayagaon about 2 km in E direction from lease area. In some places the duty to prepare the off-site plan lies with the local authorities. They have appointed an emergency planning officer (EPO) to carry out all this duty as part of the EPO’s roles in preparing for a whole range of different emergencies within the local authority area. The EPO is need to obtain the information to provide the basis for the plan. Rehearsals for off-site plans are important for the same reasons as on-site plans will need to be organized by the EPO.

E. ROLE OF THE POLICE

The police normally assume the overall control of an emergency, with a senior officer designated as emergency coordinating officer. Formal duties of the police during an emergency include protecting life and property and controlling traffic movements. The functions include controlling by standers, evacuating the public, identifying the dead and dealing with casualties and informing relatives of dead or injured.

F. ROLE OF THE FIRE AUTHORITIES

The control of a fire is normally the responsibility of the senior fire brigade officer who would take over the handling of the fire from the site incident controller on arrival at the site. The senior fire brigade officer may also have a similar responsibility for other events. Fire authorities having

Final EIA / EMP Report

major hazard works in their area should have familiarized themselves with the location on site of all stores of flammable materials, water and foam supply points and fire-fighting equipments.

G. ROLE OF THE HEALTH AUTHORITIES

Health authorities, including doctors, surgeons, hospitals, ambulances and so on, have a vital part to play following a major accident and they should form an integral part of any emergency plan. For major fires, injuries will be the result of the effects of thermal radiation to a varying degree and the knowledge and experience to handle this in all, but extreme, cases may be generally available in most hospitals.

7.5.10 CARE AND MAINTENANCE DURING TEMPORARY DISCONTINUANCE

If the mine is discontinued due to extraneous factors like government ruling or unforeseen circumstances, the proper safety measures like bunds and security arrangements will be made. Watch and ward is arranged to take care of plantation and installations. The pit safety committee would draw up emergency plan for a temporarily-closed mine, detailing all the actions that would be taken in case of emergency in the mine. Detailed procedures and action plans will be evolved on the following points. Person’s in-charge to handle the situation, infrastructure required to gather and disseminate information to take actions, men and material requirement, inspection schedules, getting outside help, training needs to take care of emergency, logistics, etc is already in place. If the mine is to be discontinued temporarily for more than 120 days, notice will be given 30 days before the date of such discontinuance to the concerned authorities. During discontinuance period safety arrangement and fencing will be provided to avoid the entry of unauthorized persons. The accessibility to the mine from the surface will be prevented by providing fencing arrangement. Emergency plan :- 1. On realizing anything serious happening anywhere in the mine, the nearest mining official is informed who can take prompt action. 2. On being informed about the emergency it will be verified for the correctness of information to the Manager and other part of the mine officials and managers of adjoining mine will be altered so that persons may be withdrawn from the area of danger. 3. On receiving information of emergency, intimation will be sent to the consultative committee which is already formed. Shift in-charge will ensure that all the materials and transport system to deal with emergency situation are at place for prompt action. 4. First aid facilities to be made ready to receive the cases.

CHAPTER–10 ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN

10.1 INTRODUCTION

The Environmental Management Plan (EMP) is required to minimize adverse environmental impacts by mining activities and implementing suggested mitigation measures with timelines and responsibilities during the project life cycle. An environmental management system (EMS) is a dynamic, continuous process initiated by management and involving communication between the client, its workers, and the local communities directly affected by the project. Drawing on the elements of the established business management process of “plan, implement, check and Act (Management review)” the system entails the thorough assessment of potential environmental, social impacts and risks from the projects. EMS provides order and consistency for mitigating and managing these on an ongoing basis.

10.2 ELEMENTS OF EMP

EMP includes four major elements: - 1. Planning: This includes identification of environmental impacts, legal requirement, commitments, policies, setting environmental objectives, health, safety and social compliance requirements, 2.

11.2 JUSTIFICATION FOR THE PROJECT

 M/s. J K Cement Ltd. has its two existing interlinked Cement Plants located at Village: Mangrol & Nimbahera, Tehsil: Nimbahera, District: Chittorgarh, Rajasthan.  To fulfill the limestone requirement of existing cement plants, JKCL has proposed this Captive Limestone Mine i.e. Nayagaon & Chenpura limestone Mine (ML Area: 206.354 ha).  As the proposed project is a captive limestone mine hence the mined out limestone will cater to the interlinked cement plant Mangrol & Nimbahera which is at a distance of 22 km in North direction & 27 Km in NNW direction from mine site by road.  This would not only help in bridging the demand-supply gap of cement in the region, the project will bring about gains in gross domestic product which will add to the gains in the GDP/GSDP. The mine shall be contributing around Rs. 26.42 Cr/year to the State & Central Govt. exchequers by way of mining revenue (Royalty, Premium, DMF, NMET, welfare cess/GST/ SGST). Total of 58 persons will be employed directly in this mine. Various direct- indirect employment opportunities are also envisaged & various means as source for local people from this mine as well as its interlinked cement plant.  With the proposed development in and around the area, there will be supporting facilities/infrastructure eventually leading to the development of the area. The project will help in the overall growth of the region.
