Sewage treatment plant based on Fluidized Aerobic Bio Reactor (FAB) technologyThe raw sewage will be collected in a collection sump and pumped to mechanical barscreen chamber for removal of large floating matter followed by grit removal in GritChamber. The raw sewage will then be collected in an equalization tank forhomogenization of hydraulic load. The tank contents will be kept in suspension by



means of course bubble serration through pipe grid. The equalization tank, with airflow indicator for continuous monitoring of air supply to the tank in order to avoidseptic conditions, will be covered from top (RCC or FRP) to avoid nuisance. Theequalized effluent will then be pumped to two Fluidized Aerobic Bio Reactors (FAB) inseries where BOD/COD reduction can be achieved by virtue of aerobic microbialactivities. The oxygen required will be supplied through coarse air bubble diffusers.The bio-solids formed in the biological process will be separated in the down streamTube Settler. The clear supernatant will gravitate to the chlorine contact tank wheresodium hypochlorite will be dosed for disinfection of treated water prior to disposal.

Fluidized Aerobic Bio Reactor (FAB)Conventional effluent treatment plants are large sized, power intensive and require alot of monitoring. Scarcity of open space and rising land a power costs have forced theindustries to look our for space saving, compact and efficient treatment options. Thishas led to the development attached growth processes where the bio mass is retainedwithin the aeration tank obviating the need for recycle. These plants are not onlycompact but also user friendly. The endeavor to have a continuously operating, no-clogging biofilm reactor with no need for back washing, low head-loss and high specificbiofilm surface area culminated in the most advanced technology of aerobic biologicalfluidized bed treatment where the biofilm (biomass) grows on small carrier elementsthat move along with the water in the reactor. The movement is normally caused byaeration in the aerobic version of the reactor. The reactor combines all the advantagesand best features of Trickling filters, Rotating biological contractors, activated sludgeprocess and submerged fixed film reactors while eliminating the drawbacks of thesesystems. The plants are more compact and more energy efficient.

The Fluidized Aerobic Bio Reactor (FAB) consists of a tank in any shape filled up withsmall carrier elements. The elements are made up of special grade PVC orpolypropylene of controlled density (shown in plate). For media of specific gravity 0.92-0.96 the overall density could be expected to increase up to 9.5% when full of biomasssuch that they can fluidize using an aeration device. A biofilm develops on theelements, which move along the effluent in the reactor. The movement within thereactor is generated by providing aeration with the help of diffusers placed at thebottom of the reactor. Then thin biofilm on the elements enables the bacteria to actupon the biodegradable matter in the effluent and reduce the BOD/COD content in thepresence of oxygen available from the air that is used for fluidization.

The hazardous debris consistsempty containers of adhesives, thinners, paints, and petroleum products. These emptycontainers will be sold to authorize recycling agencies. The non hazardous wastescontain recyclable debris like iron and other metal, glass, plastics, cartons of paper,wood etc. These wastes will be sent for reuse/recycle. The waste percentage will bein the order of 2%. Construction debris containing bricks, demolished RCC will be usedfor land filling in the place of subgrade.

2.2.2.3 PaintsAll the paints used in the premises will be ensured to have an albedo of at least 0.4 toincrease the reflectivity and reduce the heat dissipation and heat island effects.

2.2.2.4 Work Force:The labor/work force requirement is approximately 50,000 man days of various skilledand unskilled employees. Sufficient labor force and skilled employees are available asHyderabad is a favorite destination of skilled employees and migrating people from therural areas. The peak labor force requirement will be in the order of 1000 people andsome of the labor force will be provided with temporary accommodation within thesite. The labor force will be provided with a temporary toilet facilities connected to aseptic tank followed by soak pit. The labor accommodation will provide accommodation



to about 20families. The water requirement for the labor force will be approximately10,000 lt/day.

2.2.2.5 Material preparation and transportMost of the construction material including aggregate will be drawn from outside. Thematerial will be transported by trucks and the approximate number of truck tripsare1000. The material transport within the site will be facilitated by required numberof tippers. All grades of concrete will be procured from RMC suppliers. No stone crushershall be installed at site. Aggregate for Road, pavements and floorings shall be procuredthrough the metal suppliers in the required quantities.

2.2.2.6 Batching PlantThe required concrete will be prepared in a batching plant to be located temporarily inthe site so as to maintain the quality and reduce the lead distance. The capacity of thebatching plant will be 30 m3 to 50 m3/hr. The raw mix design (Cement: sand: coarseaggregates: water: admixture) is stored in electronic panel board and the quantities areweighed automatically as per the design mix. Aggregates in the sizes of 10 mm, 20 mmis stacked in separate bins and these materials are loaded into the hopper by scrapperand load cells. Cement is provided to the mix through silos (40 MT to 20 MT capacity)with the help of screw conveyor. Measured quantity of water and admixture is fed intohopper though load cells. In the hopper coarse aggregates, fine aggregates, cement,water and admixture gets mixed in required quantities by rotary motion of the mixerand after proper mixing it is unloaded into transit mixers at the rate of 0.5 m3/minute.The water consumption for this process is approximately 160 lts/m3 of concrete. Theentire operation is closed and there is no scope of fugitive dust as the operation is wetin nature.

2.2.2.7 Stone CrusherThe required aggregate will be drawn from with in the site from a temporary stonecrusher. The capacity of the stone crusher is 150 tons/hour. The stone crusher will usethe rocky boulders removed during the cut operations and used for the production ofaggregates of various sizes. The main raw material is boulders obtained from within thesite during clearing operations of the land and conveyed by tippers & dumpers to theplant site. All the crushing units are mobile and electrically operated. The boulder ischarged into the hopper with help of dumper. The boulders are crushed and screenedto required size with help of screens and carried by belt conveyors to the storage yard.The dust and the aggregate of less than 12.5 mm size will be used for road constructionand as sub base for flooring purpose instead of sand. All the silos and the conveyor beltswill be covered and the transfer points will be provided with water sprinkling. Thewater requirement for this plant is approximately 5 cum/day.

Bollineni Bion Environment Management Plan


8.0 ENVIRONMENT MANAGEMENT PLANThe project is envisaged to provide high-density housing to meet the growing demandsfor housing in the growing urban area of Hyderabad falling under Kondapur Village,Serilingampally Mandal. The area around the village has a number of educationalinstitutions and residential development. The Area is connected to Commercial IT parksof Hi-Tech city, IT-knowledge parks, Central University of Hyderabad. The project isenvisaged as a gated community with environment friendly features to cater to thegrowing market demand for quality housing. The demand for quality housing from thisarea will be partially met from this project, apart from the demand due to industrialnature of the surrounding areas. The village has a number of layouts and rapidlyturning into a residential zone for various types of socio economic sectors.

8.1 PROJECT DETAILS

The project will be spread over an area of 3.48 hectares of land for ResidentialApartments with necessary amenities in Survey Nos. 42, 47, 54 & 59 situated atKondapur, Serilingampally Mandal, Ranga Reddy District. The site is surrounded byOpen lands in nort and west directions, Residential Buildings and Commercial buildingsin east direction. An existing 30 m wide road in south direction connecting GachibowliMiyapur Road. The nearest railway station is the Hitech City railway station at adistance of 2.7 km.

It is proposed to provide 1031 units in 3 Apartment blocks. The land allocation will beoptimized to ensure compliance with the regulations of GHMC. The water requirementof the project during operation will be drawn from HMWSSB. Sewage treatment plantwill be provided to treat the sewage. Water conservation measures will beincorporated in the plumbing designs. Water recycling/reuse will be adopted by way ofusing treated sewage for green belt development. The rainwater will be let-out intoharvesting tank and excess discharged into storm water drains. The required power willbe drawn from the TRANSCO. Solar Energy will be used for fencing, and partially for hotwater in the apartments. The designs of the apartments will also incorporate IndianArchitectural principles of “Vastu” as the market demands the same. Constructionmaterial will be drawn from local sources.

8.2 Major findings of the EIA

An EIA was conducted and the major findings of the EIA study are presented below;

8.3 Environmental Impacts

Impact on Physical ResourcesConstruction of proposed project requires huge quantities of natural resources likesand, sub grade and aggregate, and materials produced from natural resources likebricks, cement and steel. The material shall be drawn from local sources, and the leaddistances range from 2 – 200 km. The impacts on physical resources of sand will beirreversible. While bricks will be brought from kilns which use Coal ash. The materialrequirement of steel, cement etc. will be purchased from manufacturers with in state.



Hence, no major impacts on physical resources as regards the availability andprocurement of construction material are anticipated due to the project.

Impacts on Air QualityImpacts on air quality during construction stage are likely to be due to operation ofconstruction yards, material transport on trucks and fugitive emissions from theconstruction sites. The model results for occupation stage show slight increase in the airquality and in worst concentrations are falling within the site, and the results are with inthe prescribed limits.

Impacts on Noise QualityImpacts on noise quality during construction stage will be significant. Hence theconstruction near the habitation is proposed only during daytime. The impacts duringoccupation stage will be on the plots adjacent to the road. Construction workers will beprovided with protection equipment to guard against the noise impacts. Noisemitigating measures will be suggested for construction equipment and DG sets.

Impact on FloraThe project site and its surroundings do not form a habitat to any endangered flora.There are very few trees within the project site due to anthropogenic pressures. Theproject will enhance the aesthetics of the site due to the provision of avenue plantationand central greening. This would ensure minimum impact on flora.

Impact on FaunaAs there are no endangered species of wild life in and around the project site, it is likelyto have minimal impact. The avifauna will find abode on the trees proposed to beplanted. This would enhance the aesthetics of the area. Pet animal faeces may leadto pollution of water shed if allowed to join storm water drains.

Impact on Land useThere is no land acquisition for this project. The land use of the site fallow land andclassified as residential by GHMC. However the topography of the land being rockyplains involves cut and fill operations where there is an excess of cut . Erosion andsedimentation are impacts anticipated during construction. Mitigation measures shallbe adopted to avoid the same. The area development would increase the housingactivity in the surroundings, which is a positive impact, as barren lands will be used forproductive usage, and the negative impacts will be pressure on the infrastructurefacilities.

Impact on Surface Water ResourcesThe degradation of water quality can occur during construction phase from increasedsediment load into watercourses near the construction site. Suitable mitigationmeasures proposed, as part of the EMP will ensure that the residual impacts areminimal. Storm water runoff would increase due to the increase in impervious surface,and rainwater-harvesting structures will be provided as mitigation measure. The designof the storm water drain will consider the additional runoff. The urban storm waterjoining the storm water drain may carry pollutants from imperious surface.



Impact on Ground Water ResourcesGround water shall be drawn during construction, and will be used to augment themunicipal supply during non-monsoon season if necessary. Exploitation of groundwater will have an impact and the same shall be restricted to ensure resourceconservation. This impact will be marginal, as the ground water will not be drawncontinuously.

Impact on Human Use ValuesThe dominant land use in the area is residential, and expected commercial space willincrease the pressure on the residential localities. There is no additional requirementand or acquisition of land. The project authorities will provide road safety measures toreduce risk of accidents in the internal roads. The impact on Human use values ismarginal.

8.4 ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT MEASURES PROPOSED

A description of the various management measures during the various stages of theproject is provided in the following sections.

8.4.1 Pre-construction stage

During the design and preconstruction stage the management proposes to comply withthe regulations of town planning, explore the availability of sufficient resources, provideplantation and sink bore wells after obtaining the necessary permissions, obtain allnecessary permissions from various statutory authorities after obtaining the relevantpermissions.

8.4.2 Construction stage

This will be the most crucial and active stage for the Environmental Management Plan.In addition to the monitoring of the construction activity itself to the pollution levelswithin permissible limits, mitigation and enhancement measures for water resourceswill go on simultaneously as the construction progresses. To facilitate implementationof the enhancement and mitigation measures suggested, working drawings of the samewould be prepared after completion of detailed project report. In addition, the needfor a balanced evaluation and planning for risks associated with construction activitiesrelated to housing project will be part of the supervising Contractors responsibility.

The resource conservation by way of identification of materials and construction debrisrecycle/disposal will be formulated by the supervising consultants. The responsibility ofenvironment management plan lies with the project authorities who would implementthe plan in consultation with other consultants, by including appropriate provisions inthe contract/sub contract documents and providing the necessary facilities.

8.4.3 Operation stageThe environment management plan will be implemented by ownersassociations/societies, where project authorities are co opted as members, and whilethe management plan related to the utilities like roads, street lighting and common



open spaces lies with the Municipality. The management in operation stage willessentially entail maintenance of sewage treatment plant, maintenance of utilities, andmonitoring activity in the project site. Monitoring for pollutants specified in theMonitoring Plan will serve the two purposes. In addition to checking the efficiency ofthe protection/mitigation/enhancement measures implemented, this will help verify orrefute the predictions made as a part of the impact assessment. Thus, it will complete avery important feedback loop for the housing project.

The measures adopted and/or to be adopted during different stages of the project havebeen detailed in table 8.1.

8.5 IMPLEMENTATION ARRANGEMENTSThe responsibility of implementing the mitigation measures lies with M/s KrishnaiahProperties Pvt. Ltd., during design and construction stages while the responsibility lieswith the cooperative owner’s society and the Serilingampally village authorities duringoccupation stage. All construction activities taken up by the project authorities will besupervised by the Supervision Consultant (SC). Implementation schedule will be workedfor phase wise implementation of the mitigation measures after completion of detaileddesigns. In the pre-construction phase of the project the supervision consultants shallreview the EMP to identify environmental and social issues and arrive at a suitablestrategy for implementation. The activities to be carried out and the target dates will beworked out after completion of detailed designs.

8.6 INSTITUTIONAL STRENGTHENINGThe management of M/s Krishnaiah Properties Pvt. Ltd., will evaluate the organizationalstructure with respect to inadequacies in implementing the environment managementplans. The housing project is typical as the responsibility of management lies with theowners/residents during occupation stage. The owners form a cooperativesociety/association to manage the utilities and common areas in a normal case. Thecommon areas, electrical supply, street lighting, open space of central green will betaken over and managed by the local body and TRANSCO. The role of residents islimited to being stakeholders with little say in the day-to-day matters; this issue mustbe addressed by the town planning agencies and the government.



The Environment Management Plan envisages on-site monitoring of constructionactivities for environmental pollution and will involve collection of samples and theirsubsequent analysis. For this purpose two chemists would be required especially whenthe implementation of the two phases goes on simultaneously. Induction of two moreassistant engineers, one each for the biophysical and social environment will also benecessary.

8.6 TRAINING

The existing supervising staff and the additional staff have to be trained to effectivelycarry out.

Co-ordinate, with supervision consultants and contractors on compliancemonitoring of mitigation measures during construction phase.

Monitoring of environmental components in the operation stage; Co-ordinate with concerned departments on environmental issues; Environmental impact studies for future housing projects; Liase with State and Government of India on fiscal policies to reduce

environmental pollution from housing activity.

8.7 ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING

8.7.1 Introduction

The environmental monitoring programme provides such information on whichmanagement decision may be taken during construction and occupation phases. Itprovides basis for evaluating the efficiency of mitigation and enhancement measuresand suggest further actions that need to be taken to achieve the desired effect.The monitoring includes:

(i) Visual observations;(ii) Selection of environmental parameters at specific locations;(iii) Sampling and regular testing of these parameters.

8.7.2 Objectives

The objectives of the environmental monitoring programme are: Evaluation of the efficiency of mitigation and enhancement measures; Updating of the actions and impacts of baseline data; Adoption of additional mitigation measures if the present measures are

insufficient; Generating the data, which may be incorporated in environmental

management plan in future projects.

8.7.3 Methodology

Monitoring methodology covers the following key aspects: Components to be monitored; Parameters for monitoring of the above components; Monitoring frequency;

8.8 Reporting systemReporting system provides the necessary feedback for project management to ensurequality of the works and that the program is on schedule. The rationale for a reportingsystem is based on accountability to ensure that the measures proposed as part of theEnvironment Management Plan get implemented in the project.

The reporting system will operate linearly with the contractor who is at the lowest rungof the implementation system reporting to the Supervision Consultant, who in turnshall report to the M/s Krishnaiah Properties Pvt. Ltd.,

All reporting by the contractor and Supervision Consultant shall be on a quarterly basis.M/s Krishnaiah Properties Pvt. Ltd., shall be responsible for preparing targets for eachof the identified EMAP activities. All subsequent reporting by the contractor shall bemonitored as per these targets set by the M/s Krishnaiah Properties Pvt. Ltd., beforethe contractors move on to the site. The reporting by the Contractor will be a monthlyreport like report of progress on construction and will form the basis for monitoring bythe M/s Krishnaiah Properties Pvt. Ltd., either by its own Environmental Cell or theEnvironmental Specialist hired by the Supervision Consultant.

Monitoring of facilities at construction camps Monitoring of air, noise, soil and water parameters including silt load Monitoring of survival rate of plantation. Monitoring of cleaning of drains and water bodies.

8.10 Horticultural and Landscaping Works

(a) ScopeThe Horticultural and Landscaping works may be entrusted to a contractor. It wouldgenerate local employment if the plantation, upkeep and maintenance of the green beltwere entrusted to local VSS bodies. Detailed drawings and designs of landscaping willbe drawn after completion of the detailed designing. The following precautions mustbe taken while undertaking horticulture and landscaping works. The project will havegreenery by way of avenue plantation and central green. The scheme of plantation andthe figures are presented in mitigation chapter. The upkeep and the management ofthe greening are presented as follows:



b) Materials

Plant Materials

Plant Materials shall be well formed and shaped true to type, and free from disease,insects and defects such as knots, sun-scaled, windburn, injuries, abrasion ordisfigurement.All plant materials shall be healthy, sound, vigorous, free from plant diseases, insectspests, of their eggs, and shall have healthy, well-developed root systems. All plants shallbe hardy under climatic conditions similar to those in the locally of the project. Plantssupplied shall to confirm to the names listed on both the plan and the plant list. Noplant material will be accepted if branches are damaged or broken. All material must beprotected from the sun and weather until planted.

Any nursery stock shall have been inspected and approved by the EnvironmentalSpecialist or the Engineer.

All plants shall conform to the requirements specified in the plant list. Except thatplants larger then specified may be used if approved, but use of such plants shall notincrease the contract price. If the use of the larger plant is approved, the spread ofroots or ball of earth shall be increased in proportion to the size of plant.Deliver plants with legible identification labels.

Top Soil (Good Earth)

Topsoil or good earth shall be a friable loam, typical of cultivated topsoils of the localitycontaining at least 2% of decayed organic matter (humus). It shall be taken from a well-drained arable site. It shall be free of subsoil, stones, earth skids, sticks, roots or anyother objectionable extraneous matter or debris. It shall contain no toxic material. Notopsoil shall be delivered in a muddy condition. It shall have pH value ranging between6 and 8.5.

Fertiliser

Measurement of sludge shall be in stacks, with 8% reduction for payment. It shall befree from extraneous matter, harmful bacteria insects or chemicals. (Subjected tosafety norms).

Root System

The root system shall be conducive to successful transplantation. While necessary, theroot-ball shall be preserved by support with Hessian or other suitable material. On soilswhere retention of a good ball is not possible, the roots should be suitably protected insuch a way that the roots are not damaged.

(c) Supply and SubstitutionUpon submission of evidence that certain materials including plant materials are notavailable at time of contract, the contractor shall be permitted to substitute with anequitable adjustment of price. All substitutions shall be of the nearest equivalent



species and variety to the original specified and shall be subjected to the approval ofthe Landscape Architect.

(d) PackagingPackaging shall be adequate for the protection of the plants and such as to avoidheating or drying out.

(e) MarkingEach specimen of tree and shrub, or each bundle, shall be legibly labelled with thefollowing particulars:

Its name. The name of the supplier, unless otherwise agreed. The date of dispatch from the nursery.

(f) Tree PlantingPlants and Shrubs

Trees should be supplied with adequate protection as approved. After delivery, ifplanting is not to be carried out immediately, balled plants should be placed back toback and the ball covered with sand to prevent drying out. Bare rooted plants can beheeled in by placing the roots in prepared trench and covering them with earth, whichshould be watered into, avoid air pockets round the roots. Trees and shrubs shall beplanted as shown in architectural drawings and with approval of site supervisionengineer.

Digging of Pits

Tree pits shall be dug a minimum of three weeks prior to backfilling. The pits shall be120 cm in diameter and 120 cm deep. While digging the pits, the topsoil up to a depthof 30 cm may be kept aside, if found good (depending upon site conditions), and mixedwith the rest of the soil.If the side of the below, it shall be replaced with the soil mixture as specified furtherherein. If the soil is normal it shall be mixed with manure; river sand shall be added tothe soil if it is heavy.

The bottom of the pit shall be forked to break up the subsoil.

Back Filling

The soil back filled watered through and gently pressed down, a day previous toplanting, to make sure that it may not further settle down after planting. The soil shallbe pressed down firmly by treading it down, leaving a shallow depression all round forwatering.

Planting

No tree pits shall be dug until final tree position has been pegged out for approval. Careshall be taken that the plant sapling when planted is not be buried deeper than in thenursery, or in the pot. Planting should not be carried out in waterlogged soil. Plant



trees at the original soil depth; soil marks on the stem is an indication of this and shouldbe maintained on the finished level, allowing for setting of the soil after planting. Allplastic and other imperishable containers should be removed before planting. Anybroken or damage roots should be cut back to sound growth.

The bottom of the planting pit should be covered with 50mm to 75mm of soil. Bareroots should be spread evenly in the planting pit; and small mound in the centre of thepits on which the roots are placed will aid on even spread. Soil should be placed aroundthe roots, gently shaking the tree to allow the soil particles to shift into the root systemto ensure close contact with all roots and prevent air pockets. Back fill soil should befirmed as filling proceeds, layer by layer, care being taken to avoid damaging the roots,as follows:

The balance earth shall be filled in a mixture of 1:3 (1 part sludge to 3 part earth byvolume) with 50 gm potash, (Mop) 50gms of Super Phosphate and 1Kg. Neem oil cake.Aldrin or equivalent shall be applied every 15 days in a mixture of 5ml in 5 litres ofwater.

Staking

Newly planted trees must be held firmly although not rigidly by staking to prevent apocket forming around the stem and newly formed fibrous roots being broken bymechanical pulling as the tree rocks.

Methods:The main methods of staking shall be:

(a) A single vertical shake, 900mm longer than the clear stem of the tree,driven 600mm to 900mm into the soil.

(b) Two stakes as above driven firmly on either side of the tree with across bar to which the stem is attached. Suitable for bare- rooted orBall material.

(c) A single stake driven in at an angle at 45 degrees and leaning towardsthe prevailing wind, the stem just below the lowest branch beingattached to the stake. Suitable for small bare- rooted or Ball material

(d) For plant material 3m to 4.5m high with a single stem a three- wireadjustable guy system may be used in exposed situations.

The end of stake should be pointed and the lower 1m to 1.2m should be coated with anon-injurious wood preservative allowing at least 150mm above ground level.

Tying

Each tree should be firmly secured to the stake so as to prevent excessive movement.Abrasion must be avoided by using a buffer, rubber or Hessian, between the tree andstake. The tree should be secured at a point just below its lowest branch, and also justabove ground level; normally two ties should be used for tree. These should beadjusted or replaced to allow for growth.



Watering

The Landscape Contractor should allow for the adequate watering in of all newlyplanted trees and shrubs immediately after planting and he shall during the followinggrowing season, keep the plant material well watered.Fertilising

Fertilising shall be carried out by application in rotation of the following fertilisers, every15 days from the beginning of the monsoon till the end of winter:

(1) Sludge or organic well-rotted dry farm yard manure: 0.05 cum ortussle.

(2) Urea 25 gm.(3) Ammonium sulphate 25 gm.(4) Potassium sulphate 25 gm.

All shrubs, which are supplied pot grown, shall be well soaked prior to planting.Watering in and subsequent frequent watering of summer planted container- grownplants is essential.

(g) Shrub Planting In Planter BedsAll areas to be planted with shrubs shall be excavated, trenched to a depth of 750 mm,refilling the excavated earth after breaking clods and mixing with sludge in ratio 8:1 (8parts of stacked volume of earth after reduction by 20%: 1 part of stacked volume ofsludge after reduction by 8%.)

Tall shrubs may need staking, which shall be provided if approved by the contractingconsulting engineer, depending upon the conditions of individual plant specimen.

For planting shrubs and ground cover shrubs in planters, good earth shall be mixed withsludge in the proportion as above and filled in planters.

Positions of planters shall be planted should be marked out in accordance with thearchitectural drawing. When shrubs are set out, precautions should be taken to preventroots drying. Planting holes 40 cm in diameter, and 40 cm deep should be excavated forlonger shrubs. Polythene and other non-perishable containers should be removed andany badly damaged roots carefully pruned. The shrubs should then be set in holes sothat the soil level, after settlement, will be original soil mark on the stem of the shrub.The holes should be back filled to half of its depth and firmed by treading. Theremainder of the soil can then be returned and again firmed by treading.

(h) Grassing

Preparation

During period prior to planting the ground shall be maintained free from weeds.Grading and final weeding of the area shall be completed at least three weeks prior tothe actual sowing. Regular watering shall be continued until sowing by dividing the areainto portions of approximately 5m squares by constructing small bunds to retain water.



These 'bunds' shall be levelled just prior to sowing of grass plants; it shall be ensuredthat the soil has completely settled.

Soil

The soil itself shall be ensured to the satisfaction of Landscape Architect to be a goodfibrous loam, rich in humus.

Sowing the grass roots

Grass roots (cynodon, dectylon or a local genus approved by the Landscape Architect)shall be obtained from a grass patch, seen and approved before hand.

The grass roots stock received at site shall be manually cleared of all weeds and watersprayed over the same after keeping the stock in place protected from sun and drywinds.

Grass stock received at site may be stored for a maximum of three days. In casegrassing for some areas is scheduled for a later date fresh stock of grass roots shall beordered and obtained.

Execution

Small roots shall be dibbled about 5 cm apart into the prepared grounds. Grass willonly be accepted as reaching practical completion when germination has provedsatisfactory and all weeds have been removed.

Maintenance

As soon as the grass is approximately a 3cm high it shall be rolled with a light woodenroller – in fine, dry weather – and when it has grown to 5 to 8 cm, above to groundweeds must be removed and regular cutting with the scythe and rolling must be begun.A top-dressing of an ounce of guano to the square yard or well decomposed wellbroken sludge manure shall be applied when the grass is sufficiently secure in theground to bear the mowing machine, the blades must be raised an inch above thenormal level for the first two or three cuttings. That is to say, the grass should be cut sothat it is from 4 to 5 cm in length, instead of the 3 cm necessary for mature grass.

In the absence of rain, in the monsoon, the lawn shall be watered every ten daysheavily, soaking the soil through to a depth of at least 20 cm.

Damage failure or dying back of grass due to neglect of watering especially for seedingout of normal season shall be the responsibility of the contractor. Any shrinkage belowthe specified levels during the contract or defect liability period shall be rectified at thecontractor's expense. The Contractor is to exercise care in the use of rotary cultivatorand mowing machines to reduce to a minimum the hazards of flying stones andbrickbats. All rotary mowing machines are to be fitted with safety guards.



Rolling

A light roller shall be used periodically, taking care that the area is not too wet andsodden.

Edging

These shall be kept neat and must be cut regularly with the edging shears.

Fertilising

The area shall be fed once in a month with liquid manure prepared by dissolving 45gmsof ammonium sulphate in 5 litres of water.

Watering

Water shall be applied at least once in three days during dry weather. Wateringwhenever done should be thorough and should wet the soil at least up to a depth of20 cm.

Weeding

Prior to regular mowing the contractor shall carefully remove rank and unsightly weeds.

Cultivating

The Landscape Contractor shall maintain all planted areas within Landscape contractboundaries for one year until the area is handed over in whole or in phases.Maintenance shall include replacement of dead plants, watering, weeding, cultivating,control of insects, fungus and other diseases by means of spraying with an approvedinsecticide or fungicide, pruning, and other horticulture operations necessary for propergrowth of the plants and for keeping the landscape sub-contract area neat inappearance.

Pruning and Repairs

Upon completion of planting work of the landscape sub-contract all trees should bepruned and all injuries repaired where necessary. The amount of pruning shall belimited to the necessary to remove dead or injured twigs and branches and tocompensate for the loss of roots and the result of the transplanting operations. Pruningshall be done in such a manner as not to change the natural habit or special shape oftrees.

Tree Guards

Where the tree guards are necessary, care should be taken to ensure that they do notimpede natural movement or restrict growth. Circular iron tree guards shall be providedfor the trees at enhancement locations. The specifications for which one given below:

Plants with bare-roots should beheeled- in as soon as received or otherwise protected from drying out, and others setclosely together and protected from the wind. If planting is to be delayed for more thana week, packaged plants should be unpacked, the bundles opened up and each group ofplants heeled in separately and clearly labelled. If for any reason the surface of theroots becomes dry the roots should be thoroughly soaked before planting.

(k) Protective FencingAccording to local environment, shrubs shall be protected adequately from vandalismuntil established.

(l) CompletionOn completion, the ground shall be formed over and left tidy.

8.11 Water Conservation MeasuresWater conservation measures must be adopted during the occupation stage that

would conserve the natural resource and also reduce the pressure on other users.Typical lists of water conservation measures are presented as follows;

Water Saving MeasuresThere are a number of ways to save water, and they all start with you.

1) Check your sprinkler system frequently and adjust sprinklers so only your lawn iswatered and sidewalk, or street.

2) Avoid planting turf in areas that are hard to water such as steep inclines andisolated strips along sidewalks and driveways.

3) Install covers on pools and check for leaks around your pumps.

4) Use the garbage disposal less often.



5) Plant during rainy season and or winter when the watering requirements are lower.

6) Check your water meter and bill to track your water usage.

7) Always water during the early morning hours, when temperatures are cooler, tominimize evaporation.

8) Wash your produce in the sink or a pan that is partially filled with water instead ofrunning water from the tap.

9) Use a layer of organic mulch around plants to reduce evaporation and savehundreds of liters of water a year.

10) Use a broom instead of a hose to clean your driveway and sidewalk and save up to300 liters of water every time.

11) Collect the water you use for rinsing produce and reuse it to water houseplants.

12) Water your lawn in several short sessions rather than one long one. This will allowthe water to be better absorbed.

13) We’re more likely to notice leaky faucets indoors, but don’t forget to check outdoorfaucets, pipes, and hoses for leaks.

14) Only water your lawn when needed. You can tell this by simply walking across yourlawn. If you leave footprints, it’s time to water.

15) When you shop for a new appliance, keep in mind that one offering severaldifferent cycles will be more water and energy-efficient.

16) Install low-volume toilets.

17) When you clean your fish tank, use the water you’ve drained on your plants. Thewater is rich in nitrogen and phosphorus, providing you with a free and effectivefertilizer.

18) Water small areas of grass by hand to avoid waste.

19) Put food coloring in your toilet tank. If it seeps into the toilet bowl, you have a leak.It's easy to fix, and you can save more than 2250 liters a month.

20) Use porous materials for walkways and patios to keep water in your yard andprevent wasteful runoff.

21) Instead of using a hose or a sink to get rid of paints, motor oil, and pesticides,dispose of them properly by recycling or sending them to a hazardous waste site.

22) Install a rain shut-off device on your automatic sprinklers to eliminate unnecessarywatering.

23) Choose water-efficient drip irrigation for your trees, shrubs, and flowers. Wateringroots is very effective, be careful not to over water.

24) Grab a wrench and fix that leaky faucet. It’s simple, inexpensive, and can save 525liters a week.

25) Cut back on the amount of grass in your yard by planting shrubs and ground coveror landscaping with rock.

26) Remember to check your sprinkler system valves periodically for leaks and keep theheads in good shape.



27) Don’t water your lawn on windy days. After all, sidewalks and driveways don’t needwater.

28) Water deeply but less frequently to create healthier and stronger landscapes.

29) Make sure you know where your master water shut-off valve is located. This couldsave liters of water and damage to your home if a pipe were to burst.

30) When watering grass on steep slopes, use a soaker hose to prevent wasteful runoff.

31) To get the most from your watering time, group your plants according to their waterneeds.

32) Remember to weed your lawn and garden regularly. Weeds compete with otherplants for nutrients, light, and water.

33) While fertilizers promote plant growth, they also increase water consumption.Apply the minimum amount of fertilizer needed.

34) Avoid installing ornamental water features unless the water is being recycled.

35) Use a commercial car wash that recycles water.36) Don’t buy recreational water toys that require a constant flow of water.

37) Make sure your toilet flapper doesn’t stick open after flushing.

38) Make sure there are aerators on all of your faucets.

39) Next time you add or replace a flower or shrub, choose a low water use plant foryear-round landscape color and save up to 2063 liters each year.

40) Spot spray or remove weeds as they appear.

41) Use a screwdriver as a soil probe to test soil moisture. If it goes in easily, don’twater. Proper lawn watering can save thousands of liters of water annually.

42) Install a drip irrigation system around your trees and shrubs to water moreefficiently.

43) Mow your lawn as infrequently as possible. Mowing puts your lawn underadditional stress, causing it to require more water.

44) Don’t use the sprinklers just to cool off or for play. Running through water from ahose or sprinkler wastes liters of water.

45) Make sure your swimming pools, fountains, and ponds are equipped withrecirculating pumps.

46) Direct downspouts or gutters toward shrubs or trees.

47) Insulate hot water pipes so you don’t have to run as much water to get hot water tothe faucet.

48) Drop that tissue in the trash instead of flushing it and save liters every time.

49) If you have an evaporative air conditioner, direct the water drain to a flowerbed,tree, or your lawn.

50) Make suggestions to your employer to save water (and dollars) at work.

51) Use a hose nozzle and turn off the water while you wash your car and save morethan 375 liters.



52) Install a toilet dam or bottle filled with water in your toilet tank to cut down on theamount of water used for each flush. Be sure these devices do not interfere withoperating parts.

53) Prune back heavy foliage. Reducing leaf area reduces water needs.

54) Pick-up the phone and report significant water losses from broken pipes, openhydrants and errant sprinklers to the society.

55) If your grass is brown, it’s not dead, it’s just dormant. Dormant grass only needs tobe watered every three weeks. When the rain begins, your grass will turn greenagain.

56) Listen for dripping faucets and toilets that flush themselves. Fixing a leak can save1875 liters each month.

57) More plants die from over-watering than from under-watering. Be sure only towater plants when necessary.

58) Adjust your watering schedule to the season. Water your summer lawn every thirdday and your winter lawn every fifth day.

59) Water only as rapidly as the soil can absorb the water.

60) Aerate your lawn. Punch holes in your lawn about six inches apart so water willreach the roots rather than run off the surface.

8.12Energy Efficiency Measures in a Typical Household

8.12.1 Hot Water

Repair leaky faucets. Reduce the temperature setting of your water heater to warm (500 C). Add an insulating blanket to your water heater. Install low-flow showerheads. Wash clothes in warm or cold water using the appropriate water level setting for

the load. Replace water heater, when needed, with an energy efficient model.

8.12.2 Major Appliances and Other Appliances

Maintain refrigerator at 2 to 50 C and freezer section at –15 0 C.

Maintain stand-alone freezer at 0 F.

Choose a refrigerator/freezer with automatic moisture control.

Use toaster ovens or microwave ovens for cooking small meals.

Adjust the flame on gas cooking appliances so it’s blue, not yellow.

Replace a gas-cooking appliance with a unit with an automatic, electric ignitionsystem.

Run the dishwasher only with a full load of dishes.

Air dry dishes in a dishwasher.



Shut down home computers when not in use.

Select appliances (i.e., curling irons, coffee pots, irons) with time limited shut offswitches.

Replace aging major appliances, TVs and VCRs when needed, with energyefficient models. Replacing a 1970s refrigerator with an energy efficiencyrefrigerator. This can save over 2,000 kWh per year. This will also reduce carbondioxide emissions by over 2,000 pounds every year.

Increase Air Conditioner thermostat by 3 degrees F. This can save over 900 kWhper year, annually and over 900 pounds of carbon dioxide each year. Dependingon the size of your home, you can save 3% on your cooling costs for every degreeyou raise your thermostat in the summer. Raising the thermostat from 73 to 78 Fdegrees can reduce cooling costs by 15%.

Make sure your air conditioner is the proper size for the area you are cooling. Anair conditioner that is too large will use more electricity than needed; an airconditioner that is too small will have to work harder to cool a space. Therecommended Air conditioners based on the room size are as follows:

Area To Be Cooled (sq. ft.) Capacity (BTU/HR)100 to 150 5,000150 to 250 6,000250 to 300 7,000300 to 350 8,000350 to 400 9,000400 to 450 10,000450 to 550 12,000500 to 700 14,000700 to 1,000 18,000

Only run the washing machine, dryer, and dishwasher when you have full loads.Cool only the rooms you use and utilize fans when the temperature is moderate.

8.12.3 Lighting

Turn off lights when not in use.

Use task lighting whenever possible instead of brightly lighting an entire room.

Install compact fluorescent lamps in the fixtures which receive high use.

Replace the five most frequently used incandescent light bulbs with compactfluorescent bulbs. This will save over 500 kWh per year, and over 500 pounds ofCO2.
