ANNEXURE-3:R&R Details ADS Reply POINT WISE REPLY OF ADS ISSUED BY MOEF&CC, NEW DELHI PP should perform the cumulative effect of mine lease area and cement plant and submit the separate report for the same. Point no.- i The reference of the emission factor used shall be mentioned in the report. Reply Shree Cement Limited has one captive operating limestone mine (Bharuwadih-Semaradih Mine) and one proposed captive limestone mine (Karhi-Chandi Mine) for catering limestone to two existing kilns and one proposed kiln adjacent to the captive mines in Balodabazar-Bhatapara district (Chhattisgarh). Cumulative effect of both captive mines and expansion of cement plant with captive power plant has been estimated considering various activities and the emission factors of Drilling, Blasting, Loading & Unloading, transportation, crushing, dumping and other allied activities besides emissions from all the stacks of cement plants and captive power plant. Air Pollutant Dispersion Modeling has been carried by using AERMET View 8.2.0 and AERMOD View 8.2.0 – Model: AERMOD and concentrations have been predicted in all directions covering all types of weather conditions. Spatial distributions of all the pollutants are also presented in the form of Isopleths.

Point no.- ii PP requires to submit water budget for entire project which includes water harvesting, utilization and use demand by the nearby village, conservation plan and seepage management system. Reply Recharge and Discharge in core and buffer zone: Based on the pre-monsoon & post-monsoon data water level fluctuation in the study area is calculated. It is observed that in the study area water level fluctuation varies from 2.70 to 32.25 m. For buffer zone (10 km radius) total recharge due to rainfall & irrigation return flow at study year rainfall works out to be 43.30 mcm/annum. Total discharge works out to be 15.8 mcm/annum & stage of development is 36%. Total ground water requirement for the exiting cement plant + existing Bharuwadih-Semaradih LS mine is 1095000 cum per annum (3000 KLD) and for the proposed Karhi-Chandi LS mine would be 51750 cum per annum (150 KLD). The total ground water requirement of both LS mines and cement plant with CPP & Colony would be 1146750 cum per annum (3150 KLD). Based on the recharge measures of rooftop rain water harvesting and storm water harvesting from plant& colony and rain water accumulation in mine pits, CGWA has granted ground water withdrawal permission for cement plant and Bharuwadih-Semaradih LS mine to the tune of 3000 KLD (1095000 cum per annum) and for proposed Karhi-Chandi LS Mine to the tune of 150 KLD (51750 cum/annum). The proposed recharge quantity from cement plant & colony and both the mines would be 1262324 cum per annum. With proposed expansion of existing cement plant and Bharuwadih-Semaradih LS mine the additional water requirement would be 177025 cum per annum (485 KLD) which will be sourced from the rain water collected in the mine pits and earthen pond in plant area. The rain water collected in the mine pits of Bharuwadih-Semaradih mine would be 519632 cum per annum and in Karhi-Chandi mine would be 51818 cum per annum at 5th years. Capacity of earthen pond in plant area for rain water collection is 100000 cum. Total rain water available in both mine and plant area would be 674450 cum at 5th year.

Shree Cement Limited Page 1 of 3 ADS Reply Impact on ground water regime would be positive as the recharge quantity is more than the seepage available in the pit. Detailed water budget for entire project which includes water harvesting, utilization and use demand by the nearby village, conservation plan and seepage management system etc. has been enclosed as Annexure 2. Point no.- iii . PP needs to submit the details of compensation for Chandi village people (89 families having houses) with quantitative values, such as the details of percentage of money going to spend different budget heads such as one time partial payment, fixed deposit and annuity and their timeline and, how the affected person/families will receive it and get access to it throughout their lifetime. In addition, the Committee is of the view that PP should submit the details of family (number of people, cattle and others). Budgetary provisions for family members (if family have girl child separate budget need to be allotted), other necessary facilities and their timeline in such manner that the efforts is easy to be quantifiably monitored. Reply Compensation Details: There are total 89 families in the Chandi village having houses within the Mining Lease Area which will not be shifted as there will be no mining activities in that area.

Shree Cement Limited Page 2 of 3 ADS Reply It is proposed that SCl will bear the entire cost for school education for all girl child studying in Govt. School of Village Karhi, Chandi and Khapradih which will include fees, books, uniform, bag and stationary.Approx. Budget is Rupees one lacs per annum. Contribution of Rupees eleven thousand for each girl marriage. It is proposed to provide sanitary napkin to all the girl child in Govt. School of village Karhi, Chandi and Khapradih with a budget Rupees fifty thousand per annum. It is proposed to provide Rupees one lacs per annumto each Registered Govt. Gaushala of village Karhi, Chandi and Khapradih. Total budget would be three lacs per annum. Point no.- iv PP needs to submit the budgetary provisions for compensation for land loser (for example PP needs to provide the compensation with respect to the minerals excavate from the affected families land till the life of mine). Reply SCL is giving the land cost more than DLC and Market rate. The proposed mining will pay Rs.8/ tonne of limestone under the District Mineral Fund (DMF). Total amount would be Rs.1.2 Cr/ Annum at full capacity which will be utilized by the local Administration for the development of the mine affected area in the following activities: Drinking water supply Welfare of women and children Skill development for livelihood support, income generation etc. Environment Preservation and Pollution Control Measures Health care Education Welfare of aged and disabled people Sanitation Physical Infrastructure Irrigation Energy and watershed Development Since, the purpose of DMF is for the development of the mine affected area, the additional compensation based on the mineral excavation as proposed is not economical viable. ***** M/s.
