Project : Holistic Development of Surat Airport Including Extension of Terminal Building, Apron and Construction of Parallel Taxi Track PFR Promoter : Airports Authority of India EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Surat Airport is located on Magdalla - Dumas Road towards the famous Dumas Beach on the South-West part of the city, approximately 20kms from the city center. The Airport currently serves Surat city with a population of 6 million and serves the South Gujarat region with an overall population of 12 million, Besides the intrastate connectivity provided by Surat based NSOP, with Ahmedabad, Amreli, Bhavnagar and Rajkot; the city has had limited air connectivity, for many long years, until recently. The new airport terminal was inaugurated in the year 2009 and licensed by the DGCA as aerodrome for public use in 2011 as per the ICAO guidelines. Air India, the National carrier had started its operation since May, 2007 and remained the sole service provider to STV, until February, 2012 when SpiceJet a Private LCC, provided the desperately needed additional connectivity. However, the service of SpiceJet came to an abrupt end; when one of the aircraft hit a wandering buffalo on the runway while take-off resulting in immediate & indefinite termination of service in late 2014. Although with scanty connectivity provided by Scheduled Airlines, the airport otherwise has been patronized regularly by Charter Services of MNCs from Hazira, VVIP Movements (PMOI), State Government (CMGUJ), Air force(C 17 Globe master), Indian Navy, Coast Guard, Heliport for Pvt. operators, Pilot Training Academy and lately by a Non Scheduled Operator - Ventura Air Connect, which is a NSOP based out of Surat. Taking in view severe ramifications of the buffalo-hit on the runway, major renovation and up-gradation work was taken up in 2015 and in a span of three painstaking years; remarkable developments have been made till date. The airport renovation consisting of periphery walls, to runway repair & extension, aero-bridge installation etc.; pending few tasks almost all of the measures for a safe & secure functioning of the airport, more or less has now been achieved. Hopefully with Extended Passenger Terminal being added in the next two years, Surat Airport seems to be taking to wings over the seven seas and should be all set to achieve a fully fledged International Status by year 2019 with a capacity to handle more than a Million passengers yearly and a ranking among top 30 busy Airports in India. Gaurang Environmental Solutions Pvt. Ltd. Airports Authority of India EIA Coordinator Authorized Signatory Project : Holistic Development of Surat Airport Including Extension of Terminal Building, Apron and Construction of Parallel Taxi Track PFR Promoter : Airports Authority of India As part of the airport development process, the AAI proposed Holistic Development of Surat Airport Including Extension of Terminal Building, Apron and Construction of Parallel Taxi Track. The area earmarked for the proposed extension of terminal building is about 17,035 m2, for Apron (including Shoulder, GSE & Shoulder converted to apron) is 34,940 m2 and for construction of Parallel Taxi Track (including Shoulder) is 91535 m2 within the existing airport premises. There is no additional requirement of land for the proposed developmental works. The construction work will be done in the land abutting the existing airport. Thus, the same requires prior Environmental Clearance under the provisions of EIA Notification, 2006 and subsequent amendments. The same shall be categorized under item 7 (a) of Schedule - Gazette Notification as Category A project.
