and dumpers which will unload its content into a ground hopper.
S-1
e n - V I S Izn
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY OF EIA & EMP REPORT
Raw Materials Storage in Day Bins:

Raw materials required for the shop would be received from the raw materials storage yard through a
system of belt conveyors and stocked in separate groups of day bins meant for Fe-Si and Si-Mn
respectively. There shall be one common conveying system of raw materials from ground hopper to day-bin
and there from day bins to the furnace bins for Silico-manganese furnaces and a separate conveying system
of feeding raw material from day bins to Ferro-Silicon furnace.
Preparation of Charge-Mix:
Predetermined quantities of raw materials drawn from the respective day bins through individual weighing
& proportioning systems would be delivered to an overhead bin hopper through a system of conveyors. The
charge-mix from the overhead furnace charge hoppers would flow into the furnace through furnace
charging chutes.
Smelting:
Ferrous-Silicon and Silico-Manganese are continuously reduced in the furnace by solid carbon reductants.
The furnaces are always kept filled up with the charge materials and the electrodes deeply submerged into
the furnace hearth. Electrode casing and electrode paste are periodically supplemented from the raw
material charging floor. Electrode slipping arrangement is provided on the electrode slipping floor, situated
below the charging floor.
Tapping:
Liquid Ferro-Alloy and slag would be tapped out from the furnaces at periodic intervals. Each furnace
would have two tap holes. Only one tap hole would be opened at a time to tap out both ferro-alloy and slag.
Tap holes would be opened and closed by mechanized device.
Casting and Dispatch:
Arrangement would be provided for casting liquid Ferro-alloys in to a casting bed. Weighing facilities
would be provided in the casting bay cranes for weighment of liquid metal. Cast ferro-alloys would be
allowed to cool, cleaned from any slag sticking to it, and then transferred to the product storage area. This
movement of finished product would be done by crane, loaders and dumpers. In the product storage area the
ferro-alloys would be broken, screened and stacked for dispatch by road vehicles. Weighing facilities would
be provided weightment before dispatch.
REQUIREMENTS FOR THE PROJECT

Land: Around 51004.36 Sq.mt. (12.6034 acre) land will be required for the proposed Ferro-Alloy plant
which is already acquired. All the land acquired is classified as private land.
Water: Total water requirement of the proposed project is 350 KLPD and will be sourced from ground
water using bore well located within premises or surface water from Wahblei River. Permission for the
drawl of water from Wahblei River is already taken.
Electrical Energy: The estimated power requirement for the proposed project would be 10 MW. Since the
supply of power at MESEB is uncertain, the project will have a 10 MW Coal & Bio mass based power plant
with import-export features, so that the surplus power / power in case of shutdown of the ferro alloys unit
can be sold to the grid. Conversely, if there is any shortfall in generation or the power plant for any reason
whatsoever, is unable to produce electricity, the power will be drawn from the MESEB grid.
Fuel: For the proposed Captive Power Plant 41,250 MT/year Coal is require, which will be sourced from
Nongstoin, Meghalaya and for the proposed Ferro-Alloys plant 100 lit/hr Diesel will be required to run
stand by D. G. Set. Diesel will be source from the nearest petrol pump.
Manpower: The proposed Ferro-Alloy plant will have great opportunities of providing direct employment
to approximately 105 personals.

BASELINE ENVIRONMENTAL STATUS

The baseline environmental quality of Air, water, soil, noise, socioeconomic status and ecology has been
assessed in the winter season (October to December, 2010) in a study area of 10 km radial distance from the
project site.
Air Environment:
The ambient air samples were collected form eight locations and analyzed for PM10, PM2.5, SO2 and NOx,
for identification, prediction, evaluation and assessment of potential impact on ambient air environment.
Design of network for ambient air quality monitoring location was based on guidelines provided by CPCB.
The arithmetic mean values of PM10, PM2.5, SO2 and NOx are found within permissible limit at all the
locations.
S-4
e n - V I S Izn
Water Environment:
To assess water quality, surface water and ground water samples were collected from different locations.
Results of all the water parameters were found within permissible limit.
Noise Environment:
Ambient noise level monitoring of background & transportation was done at same locations where ambient
air monitoring was carried out. The noise levels of the study are found low and within the stipulated
standards of CPCB for the respective designated areas.
Soil Environment:
The general Topography of the study area varies from low-lying plains to highland having small-hillocks. Soil
samples were collected from eight different locations and physio-chemicals properties were analyzed. All
the parameters are found within limit.
Socioeconomic Environment:
Baseline information of socio-economic data has been collected from Census 2001 for the four major
indicators viz. demography, civic amenities, economy and social culture, literacy, occupational structure.
Ecology:
Keeping in view, the importance of biological component of total environment due to the proposed project,
biological characterization of terrestrial and aquatic environments, changes in species diversity of flora and
fauna in terrestrial as well as aquatic systems were studied for impact analysis due to proposed project
activity. The details of flora / fauna species and the wildlife habitat in the area covering 10 km radius have
been collected to determine the existence of rare and/or endangered species. There is no reserved forest,
national park or sanctuary, place of archeological/ historical/ religious/ tourist interest within 10 km radius
of the plant.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT

Air Environment: As discussed earlier air monitoring was done in winter season and collected data was
used for air dispersion modeling as per the guidelines provided by CPCB. And it is concluded that proposed
project activity will not adversely affect air quality of the study area.
Water environment: As the proposed project is Ferro Alloy Plant, there will no industrial waste water
generated but only domestic waste water generated. Domestic waste water will be treated through septic
tank & disposed off through soak pit/well. Rain water harvesting shall be carried out to recharge ground
water which can improve water environment of the area. So no adverse impact of proposed activities, on
water quality is envisaged.
Land environment: No hazardous waste shall be generated from the proposed project. Other solid waste
generated from the proposed project activities shall be properly disposed as environmental friendly so there
will be no significant impact on land environment.
Noise environment: The main sources of noise pollution in the plant would be crusher, diesel generator
and vehicular movement. Adequate noise control measures such as mufflers, silencers at the air inlet/outlet,
anti vibration pad for equipment with high vibration, earmuff and earplugs to the operators etc. will be
provided. However, the proposed green belt will help to reduce noise level. The adverse impact on
occupationally exposed workers will not envisaged, as noise protection devices will be provided.
ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN

An Environmental Management Plan (EMP) has been prepared for the proposed clinker grinding unit to
minimize negative impacts and is formed on the basis of prevailing environmental conditions and likely
impacts of this project on various environmental parameters. This plan will also facilitate monitoring of
environmental parameters.
S-5
e n - V I S Izn
EMP includes scheme for proper and scientific treatment and disposal mechanism for air, liquid and solid
hazardous pollutants. Apart from this, green belt development, safety aspect of the workers, noise control,
fire protection etc. are also included in it.
Following measures are proposed to mitigate negative impact of operation phase of the project on the
surrounding air environment:
- All transfer points will have bag filter attached to them to control and capture dust emission.
- Height of all the stacks will be as per statutory requirement. All the stacks will have stack monitoring
facility (SMF) consisting of sampling port-hole, platform and access ladder.
- Adequate spares of critical components of dust collection systems will be kept to ensure trouble free
operations and continuous compliance to emission norms.
- A comprehensive plan for fugitive emission control based on CPCB guidelines is prepared.
Precautionary measures will also be adopted to control the noise level within the stipulated limits.
The plantation at the proposed project site will be carried-out after interaction with local experts and various
species will be selected as per CPCB guidelines.
About 33% land area of total land will be allocated for greenbelt / green cover development at the proposed
project site. Proper budgetary provision considering expenses incurred on saplings, soil handling, manuring,
after care and maintenance will be made.
ENVIRONMENT MANAGEMENT CELL

In addition to preparing an EMP, it is also necessary to have a permanent organizational set up to ensure its
effective implementation. Hence, Meghalaya Ferrous Ltd. will create a team consisting of officers from
various departments to co-ordinate the activities concerned with management and implementation of the
environmental control measures. This team will undertake the activity of monitoring the stack emissions,
ambient air quality, noise level etc. either departmentally or by appointing external agencies wherever
necessary. Regular monitoring of environmental parameters will be carried - out to find out any
deterioration in environmental quality and also to take corrective steps, if required, through respective
internal departments.
ENVIRONMENT MONITORING PROGRAM

A regular monitoring of environmental parameters like air, water, noise, soil, flora and Fauna as well as
performance of pollution control facilities and safety measures in the plant are important for proper
environmental management of any project. Therefore, the environment and safety cell will handle
monitoring of air and water pollutants as well as the solid wastes generation as per the requirements of
SPCB and CPCB.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND INFRASTRUCTURAL FACILITIES
2.1 JUSTIFICATION OF THE PROJECT
North-Eastern Region (NER) of India comprising of the seven states of Assam, Meghalaya, Manipur,
Mizoram, Nagaland, Tripura and Arunanchal Pradesh are a store house of resources and minerals
predominantly, Oil & natural Gas, Coal, Limestone, and Water resources. The area is largely untapped and
presents a unique opportunity to Industry. The resources pool has been further made amenable for
Industries through a series of Government Initiatives in which several incentives and subsidies have been
provided to Industry, both by the Central and State Governments. These include Central and State Capital
investment Subsidy, Interest subsidy, Transport Subsidy, power subsidy, sales Tax and Excise duty
exemption and Income Tax exemption etc. The Government has approved a package of fiscal incentives
and other concessions for the North East Region namely the North East Industrial and Investment
Promotion Policy (NEIIPP), 2007, effective from 1.4.2007, wherein the earlier policy has been further
liberalized and many impediments in the earlier policy have been removed. The most important amongst
those was the removal of area wise restrictions that has made it possible for industries to be located in
hitherto zero industries area thus fulfilling the spirit of the notifications and the government policy in the
right spirit.
As per this policy all new units as well as existing units which go in for substantial expansion, unless
otherwise specified and which commence commercial production within the 10 year period from the date of
notification of NEIIPP, 2007 will be eligible for incentives for a period of ten years from the date of
commencement of commercial production.
The main highlights of the policy are as under:
i) Excise Duty Exemption:
100% Excise Duty exemption will be continued, on finished products made in the North Eastern Region has
been made available in NEIIPP 2007, as was available under NEIP, 1997. The quantum of excise duty
exemption has been made contingent on the value addition done by the unit. The mode of exemption in by
refund of the amount of excise duty paid.
ii) Income Tax Exemption:
100% Income Tax exemption will continue under NEIIPP, 2007 as was available under NEIP, 1997.
Income Tax exemption is available under section 80 IE of the Income Tax act. However, under different
sections of the act as is currently prevalence, MAT, and dividend tax are payable.
iii) Capital Investment Subsidy:
Capital Investment Subsidy will be enhanced from 15% of the investment in plant and machinery to 30%.
There is virtually no upper cap for the quantum of capital subsidy. In case of Power plants, subsidy is
available for power plants upto 10 MW size. The policy does not specify what would be the available
subsidy in case of Captive power plant, especially if the size is more than 10 MW.
iv) Interest Subsidy:
Interest Subsidy will be made available @ 3% on working capital loan under NEIIPP, 2007
v) Comprehensive Insurance:
New industrial units as well as the existing units on their substantial expansion will be eligible for
reimbursement of 100% insurance premium.
There exists several other incentives and benefits from the side of the state government also that will be
available for the unit.
The State of Meghalaya is picturesque and has been endowed with natural resources. The last industrial
policy had seen a large number of units coming up and concentrating in the Ri-Bhoi district in areas
adjoining the city of Guwahati in the Byrnihat area, Barapani area near Shillong and the Lumshnong area in
-5-
e n - V I S Izn
Jaintia hills. The other areas in Meghalaya did not see any significant industrial activity. While the Byrnihat
area had the advantage of proximity to Guwahati, was the first off the block. A large number of steel units
and a number of Ferro Alloys units, melting furnaces, rolling mills, Cement plants, and other allied plants
have sprung up. Availability of Power is one of the major concerns in the area. In case of Lumshnong area,
the availability of Raw material for cement plant in close proximity of each other has ensured the growth
and prosperity of cement plants.
Inspired by the above government policies, and package of Incentives for development of industries in
North - Eastern Region, M/s. Santosh Jaiswal, Sanjeev Jaiswal, Maysalin War, Bajrang Lohia, and Rahul
Lohia, decided to promote a new company under the name of Meghalaya Ferrous Limited. (MFL) in
Meghalaya for setting up a Ferro - alloy plant for manufacture of Ferro- silicon and Silico Manganese to
meet the demand of the region as well as export to neighboring states and countries like Nepal Bangladesh,
etc. Since power supply in Meghalaya is deficient and in the short term it is unlikely to improve drastically
the promoters have decided to set up a captive power plant to meet the requirements of the project. The
Captive power plant will be based on Coal and Bio - fuel. The region is rich in coal resources, and the
jungles and the fields of the region can be a source of renewable bio sources.
The area is rich in non coking coal resources that can be used in power plants. The coal in the area is of
high sulphur that will need to be managed by addition of Limestone and by using specialized boilers and
tubes for the purpose. The other raw material required for the project namely quartz of good quality with
high Silica content is available in the area. There are reports of some amount of Iron ore, Manganese ore
and other metals also present in the area, which is yet to be studied in details.
There remains a potential to tap the existing resources of the area, and accordingly the feasibility Report has
been prepared for execution of the proposal.
Considering the quality and quantity of raw materials and Ferro-alloys, and shop logistics from the view
point of operation and flexibility in coordination, it is proposed to install two no. submerged arc ferro-alloy
smelting furnace of capacity 9 MVA each for the production of Ferro-Silicon. Proposed facilities and
production capacity area given in following, table-2.1.

MANUFACTURING PROCESS
2.5.1 FERRO ALLOY PLANT

In smelting shop equipped with a submerged furnace suitable for production of ferro- alloys, the furnace
along with auxiliary facilities like charging arrangement, electrode controlling, slipping arrangements, etc,
are housed in a three storied building structure. The furnace bath with the tapping spouts are located in the
lower most floor and charging is made from the first floor. The charge mixture along with batch hoppers is
located in the second floor. The top most floor houses the electrode controlling arrangement. The Ferro alloys furnaces are provided with hydraulic cylinders to lift and lower the electrode and are equipped with
automatic means to control electrode slipping. The furnace shall have metallic roofs, which have gas
removing holes and ducts in order to exhaust the gases. The hearth and walls are lined with magnetite
bricks and upper portion of the walls with fire clay bricks.
- 11 -
e n - V I S Izn
The raw materials i.e. quartz, iron ore / mill scale and charcoal / coke are stored in the raw material storage
shed. They are then transferred by means of ground hopper, vibrating feeders, belt conveyor / skip hoist and
shuttle conveyors to individuals day bins. From the day bins, the materials are fed to a batch hopper with
load cells for proper blending and weight of the mix. The blended mix is transferred to furnace feed hopper
by means of a steep angle belt conveyors / skip hoist and charging cars for continuous feed to the furnace
through the furnace charging chutes. After the charge is delivered into the furnace, the following process
takes places:
1) Removal of volatile and moistures from the charge and heating the charge by heat of the burning
gases which leaves the furnace after burning at the top.
2) Reduction of silicon / iron with simultaneous formation of the carbides.
3) Melting of the elements reduced with formation of molten ferro- alloys.
4) Formation and melting of slag.
5) Reduction of alloys from the slag.
The electrodes are slipped every shift or sometimes twice a day. The melt and slag are tapped from the
furnace after every two hours through alternative tap holes in a ladle lined with fire bricks. As the metal fills
the ladle, the slag flows over into another ladle placed nearby. During tapping, the tap hole is often poked
with an iron bar so as to let out the metal and the slag completely from the furnace. The tap hole is packed
with thick clay as soon as the ladles are filled with metal. After the slag is removed, the metal is cast in
small beds or C. I. moulds. The entire handling of the metal is done by means of E. O.T crane. On cooling
down the cast pens / moulds are removed to a separate area for breaking, sizing and packing.
Silico Manganese finds its application in steel industry both as a de-oxidiser and as an alloying element. It
is preferred when both Silicon and Manganese are required for a particular grade of steel. Low Carbon
Silioco Managanese is quite popular for making stainless steel through the induction furnace route.
Silico Manganese Alloys are produced in submerged electric arc furnace. Below figure-2.4 indicates the
process flow diagram for manufacturing of Ferro Alloys, which include the manufacturing process of Fe-Si
& Si-Mn Alloys. Each of the processes is discussed below.

2.5.1.1 CHARGING
Manganese ore and Coke/Coal constitute the major charge for the Ferro Alloys making in the Sub Merged
Arc Furnace where charge mix comprising of Manganese Ore, Coke/Coal, Dolomite, are fed to the furnace
in the specified proportion. The charge mix depends upon the product to be manufactured. The Charge mix
is done with accurate weighing of different raw materials. The charge should be compact and should consist
of small pieces of solid as per production norms. The density of charge near the Electrodes should be
higher. The mixed charge is fed to the Furnace from furnace bays along movable Chutes. Charging is done
periodically.
2.5.1.2 MELTING AND REFINING
Sub merged Arc Furnace is used for manufacturing Ferro Alloys, which has the following characteristics:
Furnace is open top type
Power rating is 17,000 KVA & Electrode diameters are in the range of 900 - 1,500 millimetres
Furnace is lined with magnetite bricks
Upper portion of Furnace walls are lines with fire clay bricks
Here the reduction of ores takes place with introduction of Oxygen. Depending on the composition and
specification of metal to be produced a material balance is prepared, which shows the proportion in which
various raw materials are to be mixed before feeding in to the furnace. Once the materials are fed in to the
furnace in desired proportion it is called the burden. The burden under goes various physical and chemical
changes simultaneously. Various metallic & non-metallic oxides like Chromium Oxide (Cr2O3), Ferrous
Oxide (FeO) and Silicon Dioxide (SiO2) get reduced to their elementary form by the reaction of fixed
carbon in reductants with the respective oxides.
Al2O3, MgO, CaO and SiO2 are the main oxides, which form the gangue in the ore and reductants. They
combine together along with certain amount of unreduced Cr2O3 and FeO to form slag. Metal & slag gets
accumulated at the bottom of the furnace as a result of smelting and is tapped out from time to time.
Similarly, various metallic & non-metallic oxides like MnO, FeO and SiO2 get reduced to their elementary
form by the reaction of fixed carbon in reductants with the respective oxides.
Metal & slag are tapped out simultaneously through the tap hole and collected in different receptacles like
ladle, CI pans etc. metal & slag are separated from each other due to difference in their specific gravity by
the method of decantation or simply by casting in pans. Pure metal is cast in moulds or beds
2.5.1.3 TAPPING AND COOLING
Ferro Alloy and Slag is tapped simultaneously. The tapped metal is allowed to solidify in ambient
condition. The solidified mass is then cooled to ambient temperature by using water jet. Metal and slag
formed inside furnace as a result of smelting is tapped out at regular interval from the furnace through tap
hole provided in the side lining of the furnace. The interval is determined based on the power in put and
previous tapping condition. The molten metal is collected in a combination of ladle, Cast Iron (CI) pan and
sand bed arranged in cascading manner. Metal is collected in the ladle and CI pan along with some slag.
The sand bed accommodates only slag.
2.5.1.4 SIZING
The cooled solidified mass is then broken manually using hammers. The slag is removed and used as land
fill. The Ferro Alloys obtained are screened into lumps and fines.
2.5.2 CAPTIVE POWER PLANT

CHAPTER 3
BASELINE ENVIRONMENTAL STATUS
The baseline status of environmental quality in the vicinity of project site serves as the basis for
identification, prediction and evaluation of impacts. The baseline environmental quality is assessed through
field studies within the impact zone for various components of the environment, viz. air, noise, water, land
and socio-economic. The baseline environmental quality has been assessed during October 1st, 2010 to
December 31st, 2010 in a study area of 10 km radial distance from the project site. A small Indian map
showing project site with study area and an A3 size map showing 10 km radius of the study is given in
figure-3.1 & figure-3.2 respectively.
Knowledge of baseline environmental status of the study area is useful for Impact Assessment Process of
assessing and predicting the environmental consequences of the significant actions. Significant action
depicts direct adverse changes caused by the action and its effect on the health of the biota including flora,
fauna and human being, socio-economic conditions, current use of land and resources, physical and cultural
heritage properties and biophysical surroundings. Baseline data generation of the following environmental
attributes is essential in EIA studies.

3.1 ESTABLISHMENT OF IMPACT ZONE
Deciding whether a proposed action is likely to cause significant adverse environmental effects is central to
the concept and practice of EIA. Before proceeding for baseline data generation, it is important to know the
boundary limits and framework, so that the data generated can be effectively utilized for impact assessment.
In this context, delineate of impact zone plays an important role. Generally the impact zone for industrial
actions is classified into three parts; Core Zone, buffer Zone and Unaffected Zone, as illustrated below. The
area of impact zone invariably changes from project to project and depends on the nature and magnitude of
activities.
Core Zone (Host and Proximate Area where the proposed activities is completed) - This area is closest
to the activity where the background quality of environmental and human health is always at high risk. This
involves risks due to steady state, transient and accidental release of pollutants, noise, increased traffic
congestion and social stress. The immediate vicinity of the plant that is around 3 km radius is factual core
zone in this case.
Buffer zone (Moderately affected area)- Being a little away from the activity, the discharge pollutants
need time lag to be transported to this area and gets attenuated/diluted to a considerable extent. However,
the associated risk shall be real during brake-down, failure or upset conditions, and simultaneously with
adverse meteorological and hydrological factors. Distance from 3 km to 7 km around the project site in the
factual buffer zone in this case. This is based on the mathematical modeling study and air pollution
dispersion pattern.
Unaffected Zone- This area shall not be at risk of serious damage to life, health and property. Here the
impact becomes small enough to become imperceptible and/or inconsequent and/or insignificant and
normal life activities shall prevail without any disturbances due to the activity. Distance away from the
7 km buffer zone is the factually unaffected zone in this case.
While generating the baseline status of physical and biological environment of the study area, the concept
of impact zone has been considered. The Impact zone selection is based on preliminary screening and
modeling studies. For demography and socio-economics, block wise data has been collected and used for
the assessment of impacts.

3.2 CLIMATE
The Climate of the district varies in latitudinal and longitudinal directions and is influenced mainly by
physiography. There are four seasons in the district namely summer, monsoon or rainy, autumn and winter.
The summer season extends from the end of March to Mid May, which is characterized by relatively high
temperature, occasional thunderstorm with high wind velocities. The rainy season commences with the
onset of southwest monsoon in April and lasts up to October. This is followed by short autumn from mid
October to November. This season indicates the slow retreating of monsoon with clear and sunny sky. The
winter season extends from December to the end of March. This is the coldest season of the year with sharp
decline in the temperature. During winter, some high altitude areas of the state experiences very cold nights.
Winter is basically dry with reducing diurnal range of temperature.
In general, the district has a mildly tropical climate in the northern and southern foothills, whereas central
upland portion experiences temperate climate and the places of medium altitude of the northern, southern
and western part of the district experiences sub-tropical climate.
3.3 METEOROLOGY
Air borne pollutants is dispersed by atmospheric motion. Knowledge of these motions, which range is scale
from turbulent diffusion to long-range transport by weather systems, is essential to simulate such dispersion
and quality of impacts of air pollution on the environment. The purpose of EIA is to determine whether
average concentrations are likely to encounter at fixed locations (Know as the receptor), due to the given
sources (locations and rates of emission known), under idealized atmospheric conditions. It is imperative
that one should work with idealized condition and all analysis pertaining to air turbulence and ambient air
or noise pollution should be done with meteorological conditions, which can at best be expected to occur.
The details of measurement technique, instruments, specification of measurement standards and accuracy
of instruments are adopted from the Indian Standard: 8829-1978 Guideline for micrometeorological
technique in Air Pollution Studies. Care is taken to install the anemometer within a distance of six times
the height of nearest vertical terrain elements (house, trees etc.) and height of 10 m from the average
ground level of the fetch area. Meteorology data has been collected from the IMD observatory located at
Guwahati.
3.3.1 MICRO-METEOROLOGY OF THE AREA
The months October, November, and December are considered to be representative of Post-monsoon &
winter season and study is conducted in this period only. The minimum and maximum temperature was
observed 8.2 OC and 29.5 OC respectively during October to December 2010.
3.3.2 TEMPERATURE
The hottest months were May to September with mercury reaching 29 C during June. The coldest months
were November, December, January and February when temperature drops to 4.5 C. During the other
months, temperature was more or less moderate in nature and pleasant to bear.
3.3.3 RAINFALL
The rainy season in the area extends from June to September about more than 60%. The total annual rainfall
is about 1,900 7,000 mm.
3.3.4 WIND SPEED AND WIND DIRECTION
The pre-monsoon months, March-April, have winds from North East. During monsoons, the predominant
wind corridors are North East, North, and also South. The post monsoon period, from October-November is
a period mixed with calm conditions and winds mainly from North. The winter months, November to
February, experience frequent calm conditions. The maximum number of calm periods observed is in the
month of December and January.
Site-specific mean meteorological data is given in table-3.1. The winds from N, NNE and NE sector were
observed to be predominant and a typical diurnal shift in wind direction was not observed during study

locations. The tropical climatic conditions mainly control the transport and dispersion of air pollutant
during various seasons.
The baseline studies for air environment include identification of specific air pollutants prior to
implementation of the project. The Rapid Environmental Impact Assessment (REIA) study requires
monitoring of baseline air quality during one season. Accordingly, air quality monitoring was carried out in
the winter season from October 1, 2010 to December 31st, 2010. The baseline status of the air environment
is assessed through a systematic air quality surveillance programme, which is planned based on the
following criteria:
Topography / terrain of the study area
Regional synoptic scale climatologically normal
Densely populated areas within the region
Location of surrounding industries
Representation of regional background
Representation of valid cross-sectional distribution in downwind direction
3.5.2 RECONNAISSANCE
Reconnaissance was undertaken to establish the baseline status of air environment in the study region. Eight
Ambient Air Quality Monitoring (AAQM) locations were selected based on guidelines of network sitting
criteria. All AAQM locations were selected within the study area of 10 km radial distance from the project
site.
3.5.3 METHODOLOGY FOR AMBIENT AIR QUALITY MONITORING
The ambient air quality monitoring was carried out in accordance with guidelines of Central Pollution
Control Board (CPCB) of June 1998 and National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) of CPCB of
May 1994. Ambient Air Quality Monitoring (AAQM) was carried out at eight locations during October 1st,
2010 to December 31st, 2010 for parameters such as Particulate Matter (PM10 & PM2.5), Sulphur Dioxide
(SO2), Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx) and Carbon Monoxide (CO). Sampling locations were selected from the
study area of 10 km radial distance around the plant site. The monitoring was carried out 24 hours a day
twice a week per location in the study area except the project site, where continuous monitoring was carried
out. Twenty Six numbers of observations were taken at each monitoring location except the project site.
The locations of the different stations with respect to its distance and direction from project site are shown
in table-3.2 and figure-3.5 respectively.
The values for mentioned concentrations of various pollutants at all the monitoring locations were
processed for different statistical parameters like arithmetic mean, minimum concentration, and maximum
concentration and percentile values. The existing baseline levels of PM, SO2, NOx and CO are expressed in
terms of various statistical parameters as given in tables-3.3 & table-3.4. National ambient air quality
monitoring standards are enclosed as an Annexure-VI.

3.6 WATER ENVIRONMENT
3.6.1 HYDEROLOGY OF THE AREA
Hydrogeologically, the district can be divided into two units, namely consolidated and semi consolidated
formations.
a) Consolidated Formation:
Consolidated formations are like the Archaean Gneissic Complex, acid / basic intrusive, and the PreCambrian quartzite and phyllites of Shillong Group of rocks. These formations lack primary porosity and
the movement and occurrence of ground water is controlled by physiography, zone of weathering and
interconnected zones of weakness or secondary porosity like joints, faults etc. Groundwater occurs under
unconfined condition in the weathered residuum and semi confined conditions in secondary pore spaces like
fractures, fissures etc.
At hydrogeological feasible situations, well drilled down to a depth of about 80 -150 m below ground level
may yield a moderate discharge of 5-15 m3/hr in Archaean and Pre-Cambrian Group of rocks whereas the
acid and basic counterparts have a discharge of 5-10 m3/hr. Water level is found to occur between 2 and 15
m bgl. The valley areas are found to be favourable for the construction of dug wells and bore wells in other
steep areas.
b) Semi-consolidated Formation:
It includes limestone, sandstone, and shale inter bedded with the coal seams. Aquifers developed in
limestone can be granular/porous, fissured/fractured and conduit/cavernous and that can be confined,
unconfined or perched. Sandstone with limited porosity yields water through secondary fissures like joints.
Shale in many cases acts as aquiclude. The aquifers are thick and discontinuous in nature. Ground water is
found to occur under confined to semi-confined conditions with low yield of 5-15 m/hr. Water level is
found to rest between 2 and 4 m bgl. The areas which are favorable for construction of shallow as well as
deep tube well are the synclinal and intermontane valleys.
c) Ground Water Resources:
The dynamic groundwater resources have been assessed based on Ground Water Resources Estimation
Methodology of 1997 (GEC 97). In this methodology, two approaches are recommended water level
fluctuation method and rainfall infiltration method. As the data of ground water level is insufficient, the
rainfall infiltration method is used for calculating the resource estimation of the district. Moreover, hilly
area having slope of more than 20% are not taken into consideration as they are not worthy of recharge.
Hence, the remaining area is delineated into command and non-command area and assessment is done for
both monsoon and non-monsoon seasons. As per the Rainfall Infiltration Factor method, recharge from
rainfall is given by the following formula.
(R ) = RIF x A x NMR
f
Where, RIF = Rainfall Infiltration Factor

A = Area of computation for recharge.
NMR = Normal Monsoon Rainfall
Recharges from sources other than rainfall, ground water irrigation, recharge from ponds and tanks, check
dams, nalla, bunds are taken as nil for the district and only surface water irrigation is taken into account.
The total annual recharge is obtained as the arithmetic sum of recharge from rainfall and the recharge from
sources other than rainfall. Thus, Ground Water Resource Potential (as on March 2004) in ham is as follows
(table-3.5 and 3.6).

3.7 NOISE ENVIRONMENT
The objective of the noise pollution survey around the project site was to identify existing noise sources and
to measure background noise levels. The study was carried out in the following steps:
Reconnaissance
Identification of noise sources and measurement of noise levels
Measurement of noise levels due to transportation
Community noise levels
3.7.1 RECONNAISSANCE
The details of location of background & transportation noise monitoring station are given in table-3.9, while
the results of noise monitoring are given in table-3.10.
3.7.2
EQUIVALENT SOUND LEVELS OR EQUIVALENT CONTINUOUS EQUAL ENERGY
LEVEL (Leq)
There is large number of noise scales and rating methods based on some sort of average of weighted
average quantities derived from the detailed noise characteristics. Equivalent sound levels or Equivalent
continuous equal energy level (Leq) is a statistical value of sound pressure level that can be equated to any
fluctuating noise level and forms a useful measure of noise exposure and forms basis of several of the noise
indices used presently.
Leq is defined as the constant noise level, which over a given time, expands the same amount of energy, as
is expanded by the fluctuating level over the same time. This value is expressed by the equation:
i=n
Leq = 10 log (10)Li/10 ti
i=1
Where, n = Total number of sound samples,
Li = The noise level of any ith sample
ti = Time duration of ith sample,
Expressed as fraction of total sample time
Leq has gained wide spread acceptance as a scale for the measurement of long term noise exposure. Hourly
equipment noise levels in the identified impact zone are monitored for day and time separately using sound
level meter. All the values are reported in Leq and in case of equipment noise, Sound pressure level are
monitored 1.5 m away from the machine and assessed with respect to standard prescribed in factory Act.
3.7.3 METHODOLOGY FOR NOISE MONITORING
Noise standards have been designated for different types of area, i.e. residential, commercial, industrial and
silence zones, as per The Noise Pollution (Regulation and Control) Rules, 2000, Notified by Ministry of
Environment and Forests, New Delhi, February 14, 2000. Different standards have been stipulated for day
time (6 am to 10 pm) and night time (10 pm to 6 am).
Ambient noise level monitoring was done at same locations where ambient air monitoring was carried out
within a study area. Noise monitoring locations are shown in figure-3.7. The locations are away from the
major roads and major noise sources so as to measure ambient noise levels. One day monitoring was carried
out at all the locations in December 2010. The frequency of monitoring was set at an interval of 15 seconds
over a period of 10 minutes per hour for 24-hours. The observed Equivalent sound levels (Leq) values in
dBA are given in table-3.10 for each monitoring location in distinguished form of day time (6 am to 10 pm)
and night time (10 pm to 6 am).
All measurements were carried out when the ambient conditions were unlikely to adversely affect the
results.

3.11 ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Studies on flora and fauna of the area had been carried out both for the core zone and buffer zone. Details of
the studies were carried out for assessing the diversity pattern of the floral species. Faunistic pattern of the
area was studied based on inquiries from the local population, personal observation and forest officials.
3.11.1 FLORA
Climate :
The watershed area is characterised by sub-tropical Zone. the climate is controlled by the monsoonic winds
coming from South West and North East with advent of springs the atmosphere, gradually warm-up from
March to April, the rainy season started from mid of May and extended upto October and subsequently the
winter season set in from the month of November and mercury level drops down till February.
The project area is in the western plateau of West Khasi Hills, Topography mostly consists of roling hills
with moderate, slope on the higher elevation and gentle slopes near the valley bottom. The area is drained
by umqabail and Muat Klip streams and its tributaries which are perinnial in nature and ultimately flow to
the river Um Riangdo, and river Riangsih.
NATURAL / FOREST
(a) Vegetation:
The study area for impact has been considered as 10 km radius from the periphery of the Project area. The
proposed Ferro-Alloyes Unit covers an area of 860.41 hectares.
The floral found in the whole of the study area are representative of the Northern Wet Evergreen Forest.
The forest within the study area is quite dense. The general survey has shown biotic pressure in the area due
to mining (excavation) and cut-down of trees for coke production which leads to widespread reduction of
trees in the area.
Due to heavy rainfall and sharp radiation from solar system in the region, there is an admixture of trees in
the broad leaved evergreen forest. The common species found in the area are of Castonopeis tribuloides,
Artocarpus spp., Caryota urens, Cinnamomum spp., Lagerstroemia spp., Macropanax dispermus, Derris
robusta, Macaranga denticulata, Schima wallichii & Musa sp.
The Forest of the project area is abundant with broad and medium leave species. The broad and medium
species like Schima wallichii, Gmelina arboroa, Albizzia procera, Albizzia labbek, Cedrella toona, Vitex
peduncularis, Alstonia scholaries, Dillenia pentagayna, Erythrina suberosa, Terminalis bellerica, Bombax
Ceiba, etc are found in this area.
The mixed forest of broad and medium leave species can be observed in the watershed area. Forest area is
scattered but mostly in the upper reaches. The broad and medium leave species like Schima Wallichi,
Gmelina arborea, Albizzia procera, Albizzia labbek, Cedrella toona, Vitex peduncularies, Albistonia
scholaris, Dilenia pentagayna, Erythrina suberosa, Terminalia bellarica, Bombax ceibe. Among the bamboo
species, Dendrocalamas species, Tarai Bamboo is abundant in the two Watershed area.
The list of flora species generally present within 10 km of the Project area and core zone is given in
following table-3.17 & table-3.18 respectively.
(b) Agriculture:
Agriculture is the main stay of the people In the Project area, 100% of the population in the Project area
depend upon agriculture for their livelihood. It is predominantly a mountain terrain with narrow valleys in
between. The important crops grown in this area is paddy, potato, maize, ginger and vegetables are grown
in very limited area. They used only farm yard manure and hence yield in this area is very low. Wet
cultivation is practiced in the valley and gentle slopes where irrigation facilities are available maize, ginger
and vegetables are sown once in a year in their Jhum areas.
Paddy are sown once in a year, sowing of paddy is generally done during the month of June-July and
harvesting is done during the month of November-December. Hill paddy are sown once in a year in their
Jhum areas sowing of hill paddy is generally done during the month of March-April and harvesting is done
during the month of October-November.

ANTICIPATED ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS & MITIGATION
MEASURES
4.1 IDENTIFICATION OF IMPACTS
Various sources of pollution with respect to wastewater, the flue gas /process emission, hazardous waste
and noise generation along with their qualitative and quantitative analysis as well as measures taken to
control them are discussed herein with details. The network method was adopted to identify potential
impact, which involves understanding of cause-condition-effect relationship between an activity and
environmental parameters. This method involves the "road map" type of approach to the identification of
second and third order effect. The basic idea is to account for the project activity and identify the type of
impact that could initially occur followed by the identification of secondary and tertiary impacts.
Identified potential impacts for the various components of the environment, i.e. air, noise, water, land and
socio-economic, are presented in figure-4.1. It should be noted that in these illustrations the lines are to be
read as "might have an effect on".

4.2 PREDICTIONS AND EVALUATION OF IMPACTS
An impact can be defined as any change in physical, chemical, biological, cultural and/or socioeconomic
environment that can be attributed to activities related to alternatives under study for meeting the project
needs. Impact methodology provides an organized approach for prediction and assessing these impacts.
Scientific techniques and methodologies based on mathematical modeling are available for studying
impacts of various project activities on environmental parameters.
The nature of the impacts due to said project activities are discussed here in detail. Each parameter
identified in the proceeding chapter, is singularly considered for the anticipated impact due to various
activities listed. The impact is quantified using numerical scores 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 in increasing order of
activity. In order to assess the impact accurately, each parameter is discussed in detail covering the
following:
1) Project activities likely to generate impact.
2) Quantification and prediction of impact.
4.3 WATER ENVIRONMENT
With respect to water environment three aspects are generally considered in EIA, the raw water availability,
consumption and wastewater generation that will be disposed. The first priority in water quality assessment
is to maintain and restore the desirable level of water quality in general.
4.3.1 CONSTRUCTION PHASE IMPACTS AND MITIGATION MEASURES
As company will be constructing various facilities so construction phase impacts will be anticipated. During
Construction, drainage pattern and water supply system of overland water flow will be somewhat changed
for the site preparation activities. Potential impacts may be on surface water quality during this phase could
arise from dust emissions (from vehicles and disturbance of soil) such suspended solids can be controlled
by sprinkling water and by employing enclosures to construction area to allow the particles to settle down,
prior to discharge. There would be no significant effect on water quality and quantity during construction
phase.
4.3.2 OPERATION PHASE IMPACTS AND MITIGATION MEASURES
The concept of extensive recycling of water has been adopted in the design of plant water systems. Quality
of circulating water will be maintained through dosing of conditioning chemical.
Regeneration waste from water chemical treatment and soft water plant will be neutralized before
discharged from the plant. Blow down from plant water recirculation will be considered for cascaded reuse
in the plant water system for dust suppression and green belt development as far as practicable and maintain
minimum plant effluent discharge. Through cascaded re-use of blowdown, the water scheme ensures
practically zero discharge from the industrial water circuit.
Faecal sewage from toilets and other service units would be collected through a sewer network, treated and
disposed off through septic tanks and soak pits. Area wise common septic tanks and soak pits would be
provided for this purpose.
As the proposed project will maintain zero liquid discharge status therefore, there will be no impact on
quality of surface & ground water in the area.
4.4
AIR ENVIRONMENT
4.4.1 CONSTRUCTION PHASE IMPACTS AND MITIGATION MEASURES

Generally Construction phase involves Site cleaning, Excavation, Construction, Erection &Installation of
equipment & machineries, Transportation, Material Handling. Dust will be the main pollutant affecting the
ambient air quality of the surrounding area during the construction phase.
Fumes will be generated due to the welding and allied activities; this impact will be negligible and
restricted to project site. The workers would be trained to use welding shields and use safer practice.
Motor vehicle transportation (to, from and around the site) particularly the traffic of tracks at the site,
material movement into the site will introduce particulates and other exhaust gases into the local ambient air
and there is some likelihood that during the construction period local air quality may be temporarily
affected by these emissions.
However, these activities will be intermittent and hence, significant adverse impact is low. Providing
suitable surface treatment to ease the traffic, flow and regular sprinkling of water will reduce the fugitive
dust generation significantly.
- 56 -
e n - V I S Izn
4.4.2 OPERATION PHASE IMPACTS AND MITIGATION MEASURES
The operation phase of plant which generates dust, and it will disperse into the work zone atmosphere and
plant surroundings. To control the dispersion of fugitive dust, from the place of transfer points, Submerged
Arc Furnaces Storage yard will be provided with dust extraction system consist of hoods, ducting, bag
house ID fans and exhaust ducts. The dust extraction system brings down the particulate matter
concentration in the exhaust air to approximately 50 mg/Nm3.
The dispersion of pollutants in the atmosphere is a function of several meteorological parameters viz.
temperature, wind speed and direction, mixing depths, inversion level, etc. A number of models have been
developed for the prediction of pollutant concentration at any point from an emitting source. The Industrial
Source Complex Short Term (ISCST3) dispersion model is a steady-state Gaussian plume model. It is
most widely accepted for its interpretability. It gives reasonably correct values because this obeys the
equation of continuity and it also takes care of diffusion, which is a random process. For the present study,
this model is used for the prediction of maximum ground level concentration (GLC).
The air pollution caused by the gaseous emissions from a single or small group of stacks is a local
phenomenon. Its impact will occur at a distance ranging from within the immediate vicinity of the stack to
several kilometers away from the stack. Maximum ground level concentration will occur within this range.
All plumes at more downwind distances from the source by stack emission become diluted by diffusion in
the ambient atmosphere, that concentrations of pollutants become negligible.
Meteorological inputs:
The site specific and monitored details considered for input data for the software ISC-AERMOD View by
Lakes Environmental, Canada for prediction of impact on air environment which given in table-3.4 of
chapter-3.
The site-specific hourly meteorological data measured in order to conduct a refined air dispersion modeling
using ISCST3 and ISC-PRIME short-term air quality dispersion models. The site specific hourly
meteorological data measured at site is pre-processed using the U.S. EPA PCRAMMET and U.S. EPA
AERMET programs.
Mixing Height:
Mixing height were consider based Atlas of Hourly Mining Height and Assimilative Capacity of
Atmosphere in India published by Environment Monitoring & Research Centre, India Meteorological
Department, Ministry of Earth Science, New Delhi.
Modal input Emission data:
For the modeling purpose air emission from the proposed project can be considered as suspended
particulate matter (SPM) with a considerable proportion being respirable particulate matter, SO2 & NOx
from the stack attached to Process section (Induction Furnaces) and Captive power plant. Details of
emission from proposed stacks are given in following table-4.1.

4.4.2.1 IMPACT OF THE TRANSPORTATION AND MITIGATION MEASURES
The transportation of raw materials and finished product is likely to create impact on surrounding
environment. The following point identifies the possible impacts and the mitigation measures to be adopted.
1. Impact on Air Environment:
y The movement of heavy vehicles due to transportation of raw material causes resuspension of loose
dust particles in air.
y Temporary increase in SPM, SO2, CO and NOx levels due to burning of fossil fuels.
y Accidental release of fine particles.
Mitigation Measures:
y Sprinkling of water to reduce particulate matter concentration.
y Vehicle shall be thoroughly covered so as to prevent release of fine particulate in case of accidental
leakage.
y Vehicle used for transportation shall comply with environmental standards.
2. Impact on Land Environment:
y During accidental leakage due to puncture of carry bags, containers, deposition of material on top
soil, land is probable.
Mitigation measure:
y Vehicles shall be covered to prevent accidental leakage.
y The area contaminated shall be remediated through scrapping or other remediation measures.
3. Impact on Traffic Density:
y The movement of vehicles will increase traffic density of the area. However, the proximity of major
road will alleviate possible congestion problems.
4. Impact on Noise Environment:
y Temporary increase in decibel levels during vehicular movement is possible. However, this effect is
negligible.
4.4.2.2 FUGITIVE EMISSION AND CONTROL MEASURES
The plant will install air pollution control equipments to control particulate matter emissions. Fugitive
emissions from the proposed plant would be significant as there will be air pollution due to activities like
material handling, transfer points of materials, loading of product and movement of vehicles. These
operations generate large quantity of dust. Specific instances of fugitive dust generation may include dust
blown by wind from the raw-materials stockpile, dust caused by vehicular traffic within the factory, dust
leakage from conveyors, conveyor transport points, storage hoppers and packers etc, Good housekeeping,
proper maintenance, wetting of dusty areas, use of enclosed storage wherever feasible etc., would
considerably reduce fugitive dust.
For the purpose of effective prevention and control of fugitive emissions, the proposed project shall be
implementing the following:
Water shall be sprayed on the material prior and during loading & unloading.
All transfer points shall be fully enclosed.
Airborne dust shall be controlled.
All roads shall be paved on which movement of raw materials or products will take place.
Preventive measures shall be employed to minimize dust build up on road.
Conveyors shall be provided with conveyor cover.
Maintenance of air pollution control equipment shall be done regularly.
All the workers shall be provided with disposable dust mask.

SOIL ENVIRONMENT
4.5.1 SOURCE OF SOIL POLLUTION

Construction activities like excavation, construction material handling & storage, construction waste
disposal etc. are main sources of soil pollution.
4.5.2 IMPACT AND MITIGATION MEASURES
The impact of air, water and solid waste pollution on soil causes direct/indirect effect on soil. As all
necessary air pollution control steps will be provided and based on the results of the dispersion model for
the ground level concentrations of various pollutants after the commissioning of the proposed project, there
will not be any adverse impact of air pollution on soil. It may be noted that there will not be any industrial
effluent generation as no water is required in the manufacturing process. Thus, there will not be any impact
on soil due to water.
All necessary control steps will be provided for handling, storage and disposal of solid waste generated
from the plant. Thus, there will not be any significant impact of solid waste on the soil environment.
4.6
NOISE ENVIRONMENT
4.6.1 CONSTRUCTION PHASE IMPACT

During construction, equipment, including dozer, scrapers, concrete mixers, generators, vibrators and power
tools, and vehicles will be the major noise sources. Construction noise is difficult to predict because the
level of activity will constantly change. Most of construction activities are expected to produce noise level
within the prescribed limit. The noise generated from various sources will be of short duration. Therefore,
no significant impact is envisaged on the construction force.
4.6.2 OPERATION PHASE IMPACT
The impact of noise depends mainly on the characteristic of the noise generating sources, topography and
atmospheric conditions. Vehicular movements during operation phase for loading/unloading of raw and
finished materials and other transportation activity may increase noise level. The noise generating sources
will be enclosed with acoustic proof material to cut down the noise levels. Further, green belt will be
developed in & around the proposed plant. So, the significant adverse impact of noise will be minimized.
Noise level in and around the plant site were measured. These values represent status of Noise levels, which
is given in table-3.11 of chapter-3.
4.6.3 MITIGATION MEASURES
Adequate noise control measures such as mufflers, silencers at the air inlet/outlet, anti vibration pad for
equipment with high vibration, earmuff and earplugs to the operators etc. are provided. However, the
existing and proposed green belt and plantation area will help to reduce noise. The adverse impact on
occupationally exposed workers will not be envisaged, as noise protection devices will be provided as
suggested in EMP.

CHAPTER 5
ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN
5.1 INTRODUCTION
Industrial development is associated with a few positive and negative impacts on the environment. The
negative impacts should not hinder industrial development but they should be properly mitigated.
An environmental management plan (EMP) has been prepared for the proposed plant, M/s. Meghalaya
Ferrous Ltd. to minimize negative impacts and is formed on the basis of prevailing environmental
conditions and likely impacts of this project on various environmental parameters. This plan will also
facilitate monitoring of environmental parameters.
EMP includes schemes for proper and scientific treatment and disposal mechanism for air, liquid and solid
hazardous pollutants. Apart from this, green belt development, safety aspect of the workers, noise control,
fire protection etc. are also included in it.
5.2
5.3
5.3.1
PURPOSE OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN

Various purposes of the environmental management plan are:
To treat and dispose off all the pollutants viz. liquid, gaseous and solid waste so as to meet statutory
requirements (Relevant Pollution Control Acts) with appropriate technology.
To support and implement work to achieve environmental standards and to improve the methods of
environmental management.
To promote green-belt development.
To encourage good working conditions for employees.
To reduce fire and accident hazards.
Budgeting and allocation of funds for environment management system.
To adopt cleaner production technology and waste minimization program.
DETAILS OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN
DURING CONSTRUCTION PHASE
5.3.1.1 AIR ENVIRONMENT

Construction phase will be for a short period and hence the impacts will also be for a short and temporary
period. During construction activities, mainly emission of dust and gases from movement of vehicles and
construction activity is expected. However, following measures will be taken to reduce/contain such
emissions:
Preparation of paved internal movement roads will be taken up at the initial stage of civil construction
work.
Water will be sprinkled on loose top soil to prevent re-suspension of dust into ambient air due to
movement of vehicles etc.
Separate civil construction material storage yard will be created within the site and it will be
enclosed.
Possibility of raising green belt along with construction activity will also be explored.
Transport vehicles and construction equipments / machineries will be properly maintained to reduce
air emissions.
Vehicles and equipments will be periodically checked for pollutant emissions against stipulated
norms.
Idle running of vehicles will be minimized during material loading / unloading operations.
Exhaust vent of D.G. set will be kept at proper height to ensure quick dispersal of gaseous emissions.
All construction workers will be provided appropriate PPEs like dust mask, ear plug, helmet, safety
belt etc. and made to wear them during working hours.
- 66 -
e n - V I S Izn
5.3.1.2 WATER ENVIRONMENT
It is proposed to supply appropriate quantity of water to site everyday through bore which is located within
premises or surface water from Wahblei River. Water quantity being small, no major impact on existing
water resources of the study area is envisaged. Further, there will be no housing facilities at site for
construction workers and hence a major source of impact on water environment will be avoided. Proper and
sufficient sanitary facilities will be provided to construction workers to maintain all hygienic conditions at
site. Storm water drain compatible with the local hydrological pattern of the area, will be provided to carryoff, any run-off or storm water from the premises and this water will be harvested through ground water
recharge or storage. Care should be taken during construction work & will nor create any obstruction/dips
in the topography which can lead to accumulation of water within premises leading to undesirable
consequences like health and hygiene problems etc.
5.3.1.3 SOLID WASTE
Main solid waste generation during construction phase will be construction debris like rubble, brick bats,
debris, steel scrap, wooden scrap, sand, gravel etc. However, these materials are inert in nature and will not
result into leaching of any substance or constituent.
These materials will be properly sorted and will be used within premises for filling of low lying areas.
Wooden scrap, steel scrap will be given to scrap dealers.
On completion of civil work, all debris etc. will be completely removed from site to avoid any
incompatibility with future use.
Following measures are proposed during construction period to mitigate adverse impacts:
Construction machinery and vehicles will undergo periodic maintenance to keep them in good
working condition.
All machineries to be used for construction purpose will be of highest standard of reputed make and
compliance of noise pollution control norms by these equipments will be emphasized by company.
Feasibility of putting up acoustic enclosure / temporary barrier around areas with high noise levels
will also be explored.
All construction workers working in high noise areas will be provided appropriate PPE,s like ear
muffs and made to wear them during working hours.
Possibility of raising green belt along with construction activity will also be explored so as to serve as
a noise barrier.
5.3.1.5 LAND ENVIRONMENT
Following steps are proposed to take care of impact of construction activity on project land area:
On completion of civil works, all debris etc. will be completely removed from site to avoid any
incompatibility with future use.
Other materials like paints, diesel etc. will be properly stored and handled to prevent any spillage on
land.
All the wastes will be stored at a designated site within the premises to prevent scattered discharge on
land.
5.3.1.6 ECOLOGY
Project site is almost barren land with few trees and shrubs. Thus, no major tree cutting exercise will be
there and no major impact on ecology is anticipated.
However, possibility of rising of green - belt along with construction activity will be explored so that
greening of area can be started at the beginning of project.
5.3.1.7 SOCIO-ECONOMIC
As there will be no temporary housing colony for construction workers, neither socio - economic impact
due to the same is envisaged.
Overall socio - economic effect of construction phase will be positive due to direct and indirect employment
opportunity for the local livings.

e n - V I S Izn
5.3.2 DURING OPERATION PHASE
Operation phase of any industry being longer in duration and because of its potential to create continuous
impacts. Its quite important from the impact point of view, comprehensive and effective EMP has to be
prepared and implemented to safe-guard environmental concerns during operation phase of any unit.
5.3.2.1 AIR ENVIRONMENT
The air pollutants in the plant may be classified broadly into particulate matter like dust, fumes etc and
gases like Sulphur dioxide, carbon mono oxide, nitrogen oxide etc. The measure to control the air pollution
will ensure the ambient air quality standards as laid down by Central Pollution Control Board for industrial
areas.
The system proposed for air pollution control will provide acceptable environment condition in the working
areas and abate air pollution in the surrounding area of the plant. The technological equipment and
processes have been selected with the above objectives. Depending on quality of emission from different
sources, suitable air pollution control system will be provided. The chimney height will be as per CPCB
norms to ensure ground level concentration of different pollutants within permissible limit.
Dust collection equipment such as fabric filter etc. will be adopted to remove particulate matter from gas
streams. The pollutant itself will be collected through suction hoods, ducts etc.
Following measures are proposed to mitigate negative impact of operation phase of the project on the
surrounding air environment:
All transfer points will have bag filter attached to them to control and capture dust emission.
Height of all the stacks will be as per statutory requirement. All the stacks will have stack monitoring
facility (SMF) consisting of sampling port-hole, platform and access ladder.
Adequate spares of critical components of dust collection systems will be kept to ensure trouble - free
operations and continuous compliance to emission norms.
A comprehensive plan for fugitive emission control based on CPCB guidelines is prepared and
followed.
Transport vehicles will be properly maintained to reduce air emissions.
Vehicles will be periodically checked for pollutant emissions against stipulated norms.
Idle running of vehicles will be minimized during material loading / unloading operations.
5.3.2.2 CONTROL AND MONITORING OF SECONDARY FUGITIVE EMISSIONS
The unit will install air pollution control equipments to control particulate matter emissions. Fugitive
emissions from the proposed plant would be significant as there will be air pollution due to activities like
material handling, crushing, and transfer points of materials and movement of vehicles. These operations
generate large quantity of dust. Specific instances of fugitive dust generation may include dust blown by
wind from the raw-materials stockpile, dust caused by vehicular traffic within the factory, dust leakage
from conveyors, conveyor transport points, storage hoppers and packers etc, Good housekeeping, proper
maintenance, wetting of dusty areas, use of enclosed storage wherever feasible etc., would considerably
reduce fugitive dust.

5.3.2.3 WATER ENVIRONMENT

Total water requirement for operation phase of the proposed project is estimated at 350 KLPD and is
proposed to be met through bore wells located within premises & incase of emergencies or breakdown in
existing system, surface water will be use, which will met from Wahblei River. To compensate and mitigate
impact on ground water availability in the area due to continuous withdrawal of ground water by the project
to the tune, a comprehensive rain water recharge scheme will be adopted.
Proper and sufficient sanitary facility will be provided to construction workers to maintain hygienic
conditions at site. The sewage is treated in a common sewage treatment plant. While the purified water will
be reused for the plant, the sewage sludge, which is an excellent fertilizer, shall be set out in the areas where
reforestation is anticipated.

Rain Water Harvesting is a way to capture the rain water when it rains, store that water above ground or
charge the underground and use it later.
Rainwater Harvesting System:
Rooftop rainwater harvesting: Rooftop rainwater from the admin area, store area and plant area is flown
down to the ground and then taken to storm water drains. The storm water drains are intercepted at strategic
locations and rainwater is diverted into recharge wells. The recharge wells are provided with recharge bores
to facilitate the recharge. Layers of filtering material like boulders, pebbles and coarse sand inside the
recharge well ensure efficient filtration.
5.3.2.4 SOLID WASTE
Hazardous waste i.e. used lubricating oil will be stored in 200 liter MS barrels & will be given to
CPCB registered recycler / re-processor of oil.
Silico-manganese slag will be used for leveling; construction purpose or dumped at a slag yard. Toxic
Chemical Leaching Potential (TCLP) test will be carried out Ferro-Silicon Slag and will be disposed
accordingly.

oil will be generated which will be properly stored and disposed off. There will be no disposal of industrial
effluent on land as small quantity of treated industrial effluent will be re-used. Only treated sewage will be
used on land for gardening purpose.
5.3.2.7
BIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENT
5.3.2.7.1 GREEN BELT DEVELOPMENT

The main objective of the green belt is to provide a barrier between the source of pollution and the
surrounding areas. The green belt helps to capture the fugitive emission and to attenuate the noise generated
apart from improving the aesthetics. Development of green belt and other forms of greenery shall also
prevent soil erosion and washing away of topsoil besides helping in stabilizing the functional ecosystem
and further to make the climate more conducive and to restore water balance.
About 4.1591 acre areas i.e. 33 % of total plant area shall be developed as green belt at plant boundary, road
side, around offices & buildings and Stretch of open land. In Green belt area about 1000 tree per acre of
land shall be planted. The selection of tree species suitable for plantation at the industry shall be governed
by guiding factors as stated below:
The trees should be tolerant to air pollutants present in the area
The trees should be able to grow and thrive on soil of the area, be evergreen, inhabitant, having
minimum of leaf fall.
The trees should be tall in peripheral curtain plantation and with large and spreading canopy in
primary and secondary attenuation zone.
The trees should posses extensive foliar area to provide maximum impinging surface for continued
efficient adsorption and absorption of pollutants.
The trees should be fast growing and indigenous and should maintain ecological, land and
hydrological balance of the region.
It is also recommended to plant few trees, which are sensitive to air pollution, as air pollution
indicator.
It is also recommended to carry out extensive plantation within premises.
Keeping in view the climatic conditions, status of soils and vegetation types in and around the project
area the species shall be selected for proposed green belt development.

CHAPTER 6
RISK ASSESSMENT AND DAMAGE CONTROL
6.1 INTRODUCTION
Industries have a wide variety of process involving consumption, production and storage of chemicals. The
condition that contributes to the danger, by these chemicals, are when these chemicals are not kept/stable at
normal pressure and temperature. Hence these chemicals are kept at/or high pressure and temperatures; the
gases are liquefied by refrigeration to facilitate storage in bulk quantities. Under these circumstances, it is
essential to achieve and maintain high standards of plant integrity through good design, management and
operational controls. Given the large quantities of potentially hazardous materials which are handled daily
without incident, it is clear that the controls and safeguards which have been developed by the industry are
effective. However, accidents do occur and these can cause serious injury to employees or to the public,
and damage to property. Most disastrous events like the Bhopal tragedy have emphasized the need to
address both on-site and off-site safety. The public concern at such events invariably leads to call for
additional control at national and international levels. It is against this background that the various Section
and Rules under the Environment Protection Act, 1986, the Factories Act, 1948 and other Acts specify the
requirements for a safe and reliable working of an industry. These require carrying out various studies and
analysis to assess and mitigate hazards prevalent in the factory in line with the above goal of safe and
reliable working. These are more commonly known as Risk Assessment Studies. This chapter explains
the basis of Risk Assessment and its objectives.
6.2 OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY
The main objectives of the Risk Assessment Studies are as given below:
1) To define and assess emergencies, including risk impact assessment.
2) To control and contain incidents.
3) To safeguard employees and people in vicinity.
4) To minimize damage to property and environment.
5) To inform the employees, the general public and the authority about the hazards / risk assessed,
safeguards provided, residual risk if any and the role to be played in them in the event of emergency.
6) To be ready for mutual aid if need is arise to help neighboring unit. Normal jurisdiction of an OEP in
the own premises only, but looking to the time factor in arriving the external help or off - site
emergency plan agency, the jurisdiction must be extended outside the extent possible in case of
emergency occurring outside.
7) To inform authorities and mutual aid centers to come for help.
8) To affect rescue and treatment of casualties. To count injured.
9) To identify and list any death.
10) To inform and help relatives.
11) To secure the safe rehabilitation of affected areas and to restore normalcy.
12) To provide authoritative information to the media.
13) To preserve records, equipments, etc., and to organize investigation into the cause of emergency and
preventive measures to stop its recurrences.
14) To ensure safety of the workers before personnel re - enter and resume work.
15) To work out a plan with all provisions to handle emergencies and to provide for emergency
preparedness and the periodical rehearsal of the plan.
6.3 PHILOSOPHY AND METHODOLOGY OF RISK ASSESSMENT
Major hazard installations have to be operated to a very high degree of safety; this is the duty of the
management. In addition, management holds a key role in the organization and implementation of a major
hazard control system. In particular, the management has the responsibility to
i. Provide the information required to identify major hazard installations;
ii. Carry out hazard assessment;
iii. Report to the authorities on the results of the hazard assessment;
iv. Set up an emergency plan;
v. Take measures to improve plant safety.
- 73 -
e n - V I S Izn
In order to fulfill the above responsibility, the Management must be aware of the nature of the hazard, of
the events that cause accidents and of the potential consequences of such accidents. This means that in order
to control a major hazard successfully, the Management must have answers to the following questions:
i.
Do toxic, explosive or flammable substances in our facility constitute a major hazard?
ii.
Which failures or errors can cause abnormal conditions leading to a major accident?
iii.
If a major accident occurs, what are the consequences of a fire, an explosion or a toxic release for
the employees, people living outside the factory, the plant or the Environment?
iv.
What can Management do to prevent these accidents from happening?
v.
What can be done to mitigate the consequences of an accident?
The most appropriate way of answering these questions is to carry out a hazard or risk assessment study, the
purpose of which is to understand why accidents occur and how they can be avoided or at least mitigated. A
properly conducted assessment will therefore
i.
Analyze the existing safety concept or develop a new one;
ii.
Identify the remaining hazards; and
iii.
Develop optimum measures for technical and organization protection in event of an abnormal plant
operation.
6.4 IDENTIFICATION OF HAZARDS

Potential Health Effects:
Eye Contact:
Airborne dust may cause immediate or delayed irritation or inflammation. Eye contact with large amounts
of dust particles can cause moderate eye irritation, chemical burns and blindness. Eye contact with large
amounts of gypsum can cause moderate eye irritation, redness, and abrasions. Eye exposures require
immediate first aid and medical attention to prevent significant damage to the eye.
Skin Contact:
Dust of coal, Iron ore and silicon may cause dry skin, discomfort, irritation, severe burns and dermatitis.
These dusts are capable of causing dermatitis by irritation. Skin affected by dermatitis may include
symptoms such as, redness, itching, rash, scaling and cracking. Iron ore dust including Benign
pneumoconiosis (siderosis).
Inhalation (acute):
Breathing dust may cause nose, throat or lung irritation, including choking, depending on the degree of
exposure. Inhalation of high levels of dust can cause chemical burns to the nose, throat and lungs.
Inhalation (chronic):
Risk of injury depends on duration and level of exposure. This product contains crystalline silica. Prolonged
or repeated inhalation of respirable crystalline silica from this product can cause silicosis, a seriously
disabling and fatal lung disease. Some studies show that exposure to respirable crystalline silica (without
silicosis) or that the disease silicosis may be associated with the increased incidence of several auto immune
disorders such as scleroderma (thickening of the skin), systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis
and diseases affecting the kidneys. Silicosis increases the risk of tuberculosis.
Ingestion:
Internal discomfort or ill effects are possible if large quantities are swallowed.
6.4.1 EXPOSURE LIMITS
The exposure limits for Manganese, Crystalline, silica, Coal Dust are as given in the following table-6.1.
Airborne concentrations of chemical substances and represent conditions under which it is believed that nearly
all worker may be repeatedly exposed, day after day, over a working lifetime, without adverse health effects are

6.9.2 NOISE
SOURCES
Compressors, Fans, Blowers, Material handlers, Material movement, Manual crushing and DG sets
EFFECTS
Hearing impairment, Hypertension, Ischemic heart disease, Annoyance, Sleep disturbance
ATTENUATION AND CONSERVATION
Tools for assessing noise levels A successful noise control program that focuses on engineering control of
noise requires the institution of a hearing conservation plan and the use of proper monitoring equipment,
surveys, maps, and modeling.
A thorough hearing conservation plan should be established where noise exposure exceeds a 85-dBA time
weighted average for eight hours. A good program consists of the following components:
Noise measurement and analysis;
Engineering control of noise sources where feasible;
Administrative controls and personal protection where noise control is not feasible;
Audiometric testing;
Employee training and education;
Record keeping; and
Evaluation
- 77 -
e n - V I S Izn
CONTROL MEASURES:
Introducing good acoustic design for the new production line
Adopting proper scheduling of construction activities
Scheduling noisy activities during the daytime periods
Operating well-maintained mechanical equipment on-site
Ensuring that equipment that may be intermittent in use should be shut down between work periods or
should be throttled down to a minimum
Using personnel protection gear such as earplugs, muffs, etc.
Controlling air-flow generated noise by adopting adequate sizing of inlet/outlet ducts
Installing noise barriers around air blowers, pumps, and generators to reduce noise impacts at nearby
receptors
Devising and implementing a rigorous inspection and maintenance program applicable to equipment
on-site
6.9.3 ERGONOMICS
Ergonomics is the term applied to the field that studies and designs the human-machine interface to prevent
illness and injury and to improve work performance. It attempts to ensure that jobs and work tasks are
designed to be compatible with the capabilities of the workers.
SOURCES:
Some physical agents play an important role in ergonomics such as Force, Acceleration and Thermal
factors. Force is an "important causal agent in injuries from lifting. Other Important ergonomic
considerations include work duration, repetition, contact stresses, postures, and psychosocial issues.
Work-Related Musculoskeletal Disorders
Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are an important occupational health problem that can be
managed using an ergonomics health and safety program. The term musculoskeletal disorders refers to
chronic muscle, tendon, and nerve disorders caused by repetitive exertions, rapid motions, high forces,
contact stresses, extreme postures, vibration, and/or low temperatures. Other commonly used terms for
work-related musculoskeletal disorders include cumulative trauma disorders (CTDs), repetitive motion
illnesses (RMIs), and repetitive strain injuries (RSIs). Some of these disorders fit established diagnostic
criteria such as carpal tunnel syndrome or tendinitis. Other musculoskeletal disorders may be manifested by
nonspecific pain. Some transient discomfort is normal consequence of work and is unavoidable, but
discomfort that persists from day to day or interferes with activities of work or daily living should not be
considered an acceptable outcome of work.
Control Strategies
The incidence and severity of MSDs are best controlled by an integrated ergonomics program. Major
program elements include:
Recognition of the problem,
Evaluation of suspected jobs for possible risk factors.
Identification and evaluation of causative factors,
Involvement of workers as fully informed active participants, and
Appropriate health care for workers who have developed musculoskeletal disorders.
General programmatic controls should be implemented when risk of MSDs is recognized. These include:
Education of workers, supervisors, engineers, and managers;
Early reporting of symptoms by workers; and
Ongoing surveillance and evaluation of injury, health and medical data, Job-specific controls are
directed to individual jobs associated with MSDs. These include engineering controls and
administrative controls. Personal protection may he appropriate under some limited circumstances.
- 78 -
e n - V I S Izn
CONTROL MEASURES:
Among engineering controls to eliminate or reduce risk factors from the job, the following may be
considered:
Using work, methods engineering, e.g., time study, motion analysis, to eliminate unnecessary
motions and exertions.
Using mechanical assists to eliminate or reduce exertions required to hold tools and work objects.
Selecting for designing tools that reduce force requirements, reduce holding time, and improve
postures.
Providing user-adjustable workstations that reduce reaching and improve postures.
Implementing quality control and maintenance programs that reduce unnecessary forces and
exertions, especially associated with non value-added work.
Administrative controls reduce risk through reduction of exposure time and sharing the exposure among a
larger group of workers. Examples include:
Implementing work standards that permit workers to pause or stretch as necessary but at least once
per hour.
Re-allocating work assignments (e.g., using worker rotation or work enlargement) so that a worker
does not spend an entire work shift per forming high-demand tasks.
Due to the complex nature of musculoskeletal disorders, there is no "one size fits all" approach to reducing
the incidence and severity of cases. The following principles apply to selecting actions:
Appropriate engineering and administrative controls will vary from industry to industry and
company to company.
Informed professional judgment is required to select the appropriate control measures.
Work-related MSDs typically require periods of weeks to months for recovery. Control measures
should be evaluated accordingly to determine their effectiveness.
1. HEAT STRESS:
Aim is to maintain body core temperature within +1 C of normal (37 C). This core body temperature
range can be exceeded under certain circumstances with selected populations, environmental and
physiologic monitoring, and other controls.
SOURCE:
High temperature and humidity; direct sun or heat; limited air movement; physical exertion; poor physical
condition; some medicines; inadequate tolerance for hot workplaces; and insufficient water intake can all
lead to heat stress; working near furnace area. Different ways of heat disorders, health effects & cure are

Replace fluids by providing cool water or any cool liquid (except alcoholic and caffeinated beverages) to
workers and encourage them to drink small amounts frequently, e.g., one cup every 20 minutes. Ample
supplies of liquids should be placed close to the work area.
Reduce the physical demands by reducing physical exertion such as excessive lifting, climbing, or
digging with heavy objects. Use relief workers or assign extra workers, and minimize overexertion.
Provide recovery areas such as air-conditioned enclosures and rooms and provide intermittent rest
periods with water breaks.
Reschedule hot jobs for the cooler part of the day, and routine maintenance and repair work in hot areas
should be scheduled for the cooler seasons of the year.
