1.3 BASELINE ENVIRONMENT STATUS

Study Area: In accordance with the EIA guidelines published by the MoEF, Govt. of

India and ToR issued for the project an area covering 10.0 km radius from the

proposed project site as the centre has been considered as the Study Area for

baseline data collection.

Study Period: The study period for the project includes one complete season’s data

i.e. Pre-monsoon season (March to May, 2011).





Topography: The project site has almost plain topography with elevation level

varying from 221 to 223 m above MSL. The slope of the site is from North-east to

South-west. There is no requirement for any filling material from the outside.

However, leveling activity will take place at the project site.

Geology: A fairly thick group of sedimentary rocks occurs ranging in age between

Eocene and Pieistocene period of geological succession. The geology consists of

mixed alluvium and sandstone shale grit and conglomerate. The study area is

dominated by mainly the unconsolidated sedimentary deposits consisting of

alluvial.

Seismicity: The study falls under Seismic Zone IV. Since recorded history of seismic

activities in Uttarakhand area, no major seismic disturbances have been recorded in

Udham Singh Nagar District.

Soil: The texture of soil studied at various locations is mostly clay with sandy-loam

at few locations and its color varies from yellowish to light brown. The soil is

moderately productive and suitable for extensive cultivation of high yielding variety

of crops like Rice and Sugarcane.

Land-Use of Study Area: The major share of the land in study area is under

agriculture land and consists about 91.3 percent of the total study area. Settlement

is the second dominant land use type of the study area, and covers 3.33 percent. The

open area in the study area is covering about 0.4 percent of the total study area & as

per the Waste land concern it is only 0.04 percent. Water bodies i.e. Rivers including

Kosi and Bahella, Mahadev Canal & Other Minor Ponds covers about 1.6 percent of

the total area.

Micro-meteorology: The average maximum temperature recorded during the

study period was 34.0°C and a minimum reading of 10.0°C with an average

temperature of 27.0°C. The relative humidity showed a minimum of 17.0 % and





maximum of 73.7 % during the monitoring period. The mean wind speed was

calculated at 7.5 kmph. The predominant wind direction in the overall study period

was North-West and the second predominant wind direction was from the North-

East. The average rainfall during the study period was found to be 5.80 mm.

Ambient Air Quality: Ambient air quality at nine different locations was monitored

during pre monsoon study period. It was found that SPM varied between 143.5 to

188.4 μg/m3 for pre monsoon study period. The 24-hrs PM10 level of ambient air in

all the stations during pre-monsoon period was recorded in between 48.8 to 86.2

μg/m3 as against allowable value of 100μg/m3 stipulated in National Ambient Air

Quality Standards (NAAQS) for industrial, residential cum rural area. The PM2.5

value was found between 14.5 to 25.7 μg/m3. Similarly values of SO2 and NOX

ranging from 17.9 to 24.2 μg/m3 and 10.2 to 14.9 μg/m3 respectively are well within

the stipulated levels of NAAQS.

Noise Level: The hourly recorded noise level at various locations in the study area

shows fluctuations because of change in traffic movement, and domestic activities.

The equivalent values of noise levels varies from 41.8 to 48.8 dB (A) during daytime

and 34.6 dB (A) to 41.1 dB (A) during night time, which are within the prescribed

norms of CPCB.

Area Drainage: There are two rivers namely Bahella and Kosi flowing in the study

area. The study area is plain and thus there is less streams in the area. The Bahalla

canal flows about 2.0 km from the site.

Ground Water: It was found that the pH of the groundwater is normal, ranging

from 6.86 to 7.61. The TDS values were in the range of 258 to 414 mg/l. The

hardness values were in the range of 115.0 to 240.0 mg/l and the calcium and

magnesium were in the range of 28.0 to 52.0 mg/l and 11.0 to 25.0 mg/l

respectively. The chloride, alkalinity, nitrates and sodium were all found within the





limits of drinking water standard. Heavy metals such as arsenic, cadmium,

chromium, lead, and mercury, were all found below detection limits, whereas low

concentrations of iron, copper and zinc were found within drinking water

standards. In general, the ground water can be used for drinking purpose after

necessary disinfection.

Surface Water: The pH of the surface water samples is found normal and ranges

from 7.52 to 7.85. The TDS value ranges from 337 to 488 mg/l. The values of

hardness, calcium and magnesium, chloride, sulphate, nitrate values were also

found within the tolerance limits IS: Class-C. The heavy metals such as arsenic,

cadmium, chromium, lead and mercury are all found below detection limits,

whereas low concentrations of iron and manganese are found within surface water

tolerance limit standards. The BOD values were observed as 2.0 to 6.0 mg/l and

total coliform from 28 to 54 MPN/100ml.

Ecology: There are no ecologically sensitive receptors within the study area. The

Jim Corbett National Park Lies outside the study area adjacent to Ramnagar town

and is 30 km north-west of the proposed site. The flora in the study area mostly

consists of khair and sal. Fauna in the area consists of mammals (such as wild dog,

wild boar, monkeys, etc.) reptiles (such as snakes and lizards) and common avifauna

(such as myna, crows, pigeons, sparrows etc). There are no Schedule I fauna in the

area.

Social Background: The numbers of households in the study area is 27176 with a

total population of 1,61,990. The average household size of the study area is 6.0.

This indicates the family size is not very big in the area and there is a predominance

of nuclear families. The literacy rate in the urban & rural areas of study area is 78.0

% & 64.45 % respectively. The area has 23,858 of Scheduled Caste and 2,563 of

Scheduled Tribe population. The area is dominated by people from the OBC

category.





1.4 PREDICTION OF IMPACTS

A. Impact during Construction: Based on the impact analysis, it is predicted that

there will be negligible impact on environment during construction phase. During

construction the likely impacts include dust due to construction, movement of

vehicles, gases from engine exhaust, noise from movement of material personnel,

etc. The impact on environment will be of temporary nature, localized and short

term with changes in the surrounding land use as compared to the current

conditions. The potential impacts on water environment will arise due to discharge

of washing of construction materials stockpiled, washing of concrete batching plant

and discharge of untreated sewage of construction laborers.

B. Impact during Operation:

Impact on Air Quality: Since steam requirement for the proposed installation of

Lignocellulosic Biomass Processing Pilot Plant for taking trials to produce Ethanol at

existing complex of industry will be met from existing boiler for distillery unit

hence, additional load of SO2, NOx, hydrocarbons, flue gases etc on air environment

would not be expected.

Impact on Water Quality: The water requirement (31.0 KLPD) for the proposed

installation of Lignocellulosic Biomass Processing Pilot Plant for taking trials to

produce Ethanol at existing complex will be sourced from existing bore well. As per

the wastewater concern about 19.0 KLPD wash water will be expected to generate

from the processing of raw material, which will be treated through existing effluent

treatment plant (ETP) of 425.0 KLPD capacity. So, no adverse impact on

groundwater is anticipated.

Impact on Noise: The cumulative impact from different stationary noise sources at

proposed project site has been predicted. It was found that the ambient noise is





higher than predicted levels therefore, due to the masking effect, an increase is not

expected.

1.5 Mitigation Measures:

During the operation stage no air pollutants will be generated. Product water

storage tank will be provided for distribution of potable water to various consumer

points. The wastewater will be treated through existing effluent treatment plant so

as to meet the standards as per the MoEF / CECB standards. The treated water will

be utilized for green belt development after reverse osmosis.

All equipment that are major noise generating devices/machines and other rotating

equipment will have material to absorb/ reduce the noise i.e. using noise absorbing

material for enclosures or using appropriate design technology for

fabricating/assembling machines. Proper noise barriers/ shields etc. shall be

provided in the equipment whenever it required. Noisy equipment shall be

adequately attenuated, by providing soundproof enclosure and insulation.

1.6 MONITORING PLAN

Monitoring System: A structured and certified Environment Monitoring System is

suggested at the industry level for ensuring that all activities, products, and services

conform to the environmental requirement. The Environment Management Cell will

be responsible for managing following activities related to environment function of

proposed Pilot Plant:

• Coordinate and manage the EMP implementation during pre-construction,

construction and operation phase

• Appoint dedicated environment staff to manage environmental monitoring

responsibilities

• Manage and coordinate environmental monitoring and control





• Coordination with other sections of the plant and government agencies in

relation to environmental management activities

• Implement and monitor greenbelt development and plantation activities

• Safety specialist will ensure safe working practices in all the sections of the plant

Cost: Existing Facilities for pollution control equipments & fire and explosion

system, will be utilized. Other than the above the annual recurring cost for

monitoring and green belt maintenance will be about Rs 15.0 lakhs excluding

manpower.

1.7 RISK ASSESSMENT

Risks likely to pose a risk to man, environment or property associated with various

activities are addressed in this report. Such activities include transport, storage;

handling and usage of materials. Precautionary measures to be taken for preventing

any hazards due to any materials are proposed in the report. During detailed

engineering it will be ensured that the all materials are placed in such a way that its

impact will not go beyond the plant boundary.

The following precautions will also be taken:

• Suitable fire protection system comprising hydrants and spray systems are

provided for fire protection. Fire extinguishers should be tested periodically and

to always be kept in operational mode.

• Surrounding population (including all strata of society) should be made aware of

safety precautions to be taken in case of any mishap in plant.

• On-site disaster management and off-site emergency plans, commands

communication and controls will be established and maintained.

• Adequate provisions like emergency response, response organization, response

plan, material safety data sheet, command & control, capabilities, transportation,





medical facilities, mitigation measures, training, education, public awareness

emergency plan review etc. to control any disaster situation will be made

available.

1.8 ENVIRONMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN

A separate Environment Management Cell (EMC) comprising of a team of

experienced and qualified personnel reporting is already in function. The Head of

EMC has been assisted by well trained staffs comprising of environmental and safety

specialists. Staff is trained for environment control measures like air, water quality

monitoring, solid waste management, noise abatement etc. Staff would also be

trained to operate pollution control equipment at optimum efficiency. For the

proposed pilot plant, the Environmental and Social Management System and its set

up, role and responsibilities will be based on the requirement of ISO 14000

certification.

1.9 Green Belt Development: The existing complex of M/s India Glycols Limited

has adequate green belt of all along its perimeter. As per the concern of proposed

project new trees will be planted to strengthen the existing green belt.

1.10 CSR Activity: M/s India Glycols Limited is already taking the responsibility for

community development work at the village level so as to improve the quality of life.

Development of infrastructure, educational and health facilities will be further

strengthened as a part of existing CSR activities.
