Page 8 of 46 The compensation is based on the land area utilized and the production of Mn ore. Usually, the compensation paid to the land owners shall be @390 to 500/ha/ton. Total cost of the Project is Rs. 40 Lakhs. Based on the information furnished, presentation made and discussions held, the Committee prescribed the TORs for undertaking detailed EIA study (Annexure-I) with additional TOR condition of submission of a report on (i) Prevention measures for possible impacts of Manganese poisoning. 2.6 Ghotkuri Guda-II Manganese Mine with production of 4800 tonnes/annum of M/s Aditya Minerals Pvt Ltd. at Village GhotkuriGuda, Distt. Adilabad, A.P. (22.73 ha) (SGS India Pvt. Ltd)-TOR Ghutkuri Guda II Manganese mine is located in Ghutkuri & Guda villages of Tamsi & Jainath Mandal, Adilabad District, Andhra Pradesh. The Company has been mining manganese ore in the lease area granted by Govt. of Andhra Pradesh with an extent of 22.73 ha since 1976. Company is producing manganese ore @ 4,800 tonnes/annum with valid mining lease granted on 16.08.1976. Latest mining lease was granted vide Govt. of Andhra Pradesh no.1725/M/2001 dated 11.01.2002 w.e.f. 16.08.1996 & valid up to 15.08.2016. This mining lease area is having a small deposit of medium grade manganese (Mn) ore with 0.5 m average thickness and is lying between siliceous limestone bands at a depth of 1 to 5m with 44,490 tonnes of mineable reserves. The proposed production of manganese ore is 4,800 tonnes/annum. With this production rate, the life of the mine shall be 9 years. Out of the total mining lease area of 22.73 ha only 4.62 ha of land has been excavated till date. Altogether a total 9.77 ha of land will be excavated till the completion of lease period. Hence more than 12.84ha of land will remain unexcavated. The mine is operated by manual method of mining with shot hole (32mm dia and 0.5 to 1.5m depth) drilling and blasting with the use of low explosives to loosen the overburden (hard siliceous low grade limestone). The Project site doesn’t fell within 10 km radius of National Park/ Wildlife Sanctuary. No forest land & water bodies exist within the mining lease area. It is proposed that about Rs.41 lakhs per annum shall be spent by the PP towards health, safety, environment management and socio-economic development in the nearby villages. The quantity of waste i.e, generated during the mining shall be backfilled concurrent to mining in the already excavated mine pit. The ML area is plain agricultural land granted by Dept. of Mines & Geology in the year 1976, since then the mining activity is practiced to a smaller extent. The ML area (22.73 ha) is occupied by Govt. waste land (9.84 ha), own land (5.40 ha) and private Patta land (7.49 ha). The most of the mining lease area is covered by cultivation practiced by private Patta land owners from the nearby villages. The mine management & villagers have mutual agreement with respect to compensation for the use of their land for mining purposes. The compensation is based on the
Page 9 of 46 land area utilized and the production of Mn ore. Usually, the compensation paid to the land owners shall be @390 to 500/Ha/ton. The topography of the area is plain lands with dendritic drainage pattern. No major nallah or water bodies exist within ML area. The drinking water requirement for this Project is only 0.5KLD and the same is supplied from nearby village bore well through water tanker. The total Project capital cost will be Rs. 40 lakhs. Based on the information furnished, presentation made and discussions held, the Committee prescribed the TORs for undertaking detailed EIA study (Annexure-I) with additional TOR condition of submission of a report on (i) Prevention measures for possible impacts of Manganese poisoning. 2.7 Sand Mining Project of on Banganga river bed (6.78 ha) of M/s Krishna Kumar Jaiswal with production capacity of 65,000 TPA at Village: Komar, Tehsil: Shohratgarh, District: Siddhartha Nagar, State: Uttar Pradesh (Consultant: Grassroots Research and Creation India Pvt. Ltd) –TOR The proposed Project of 6.78 ha area is of river bed sand mining and fells under Category- “A” as per EIA Notification 2006 of the Ministry of Environment and Forests, New Delhi, due to the presence of India-Nepal International Border within 10 km of the lease area. The mining lease area is located in Village Komar, Tehsil Shohratgarh, District Sidhartha Nagar, Uttar Pradesh. There will be no change in the land use. Mining will be in stream, along the centre of the river bed keeping both the shores unaffected. The proposed Project activity will be carried out in the bed of the Ban-Ganga River between Latitude: 27° 26' 16.50" N to 27° 26' 11.87" N and Longitude: 82° 55' 38.92" E to 82° 56' 5.00" E. The mining is confined to extraction of sand from the river bed. The operation will be manual in which the material will be collected in its existing form. Sand Mining will be carried out only up to a depth of 1 m, using pole-bucket arrangement. Mining will be carried out only during the day time. Extraction of material will be done depending upon the sedimentation rate i.e. production capacity will not exceed the replenishment capacity of the water channel. In the proposed Project there is no need of water to carry out operations but for drinking water which will be required for the working people and for the dust suppression. The water requirement for drinking and for dust suppression will be around 1 KLD. This water will be supplied from the nearby village by tankers. The Total cost of Project would be around Rs. 16 lakhs. It was noted by the Expert Appraisal Committee that earlier Proposal for in-stream mining are under consideration by the Ministry, Committee cannot consider this Proposal, however this Proposal being both off-stream (3.75 ha) and in-stream (2.25 ha) Committee recommended the Proposal for off-stream mining only. Based on the information furnished, presentation made and discussions held, the Committee prescribed the TORs for undertaking detailed EIA study for
