1 Minutes of the 36th Meeting of the Expert Appraisal Committee ...

Raw material handling and transfer points will be controlled by Dry Fog (DF) system whereasdust suppression (DS) by water sprinkling would be done at open stockyard. All closed zone workingareas such as raw materials handling zone, conveyor transfer points, dust generation points at screenwould be provided with multiple dust extraction (DE) systems/dry fogging (DF) at several emission pointsto control the fugitive dust emissions. Bag filters, ESP and wet scrubber will be provided for the pelletplant. PM, SO 2 and CO from DRI Plant will be controlled by Dust Settling Chamber-ABC-WHRB-ESP.Forced draft cooler, Spark arrester and bag filter with adequate stack height will be provided to controlPM emission from SAF. Swiveling hood will be provided for fume extraction from IF. Spark arrester andbag filter with adequate stack height to control particulate matter emission. ESP, DFS and Bag filters willbe provided for the CPP.The water requirement of 165 m 3 /hr will be sourced from GVMC (Greater VishakhapatnamMunicipal Corporation) at a distance of 4 km from the project site. 29 m 3 /hr of wastewater will begenerated which will be completely reused and designed for zero discharge concept. Dolo char from DRIplant will be used in the FBC power plant. Fly ash will be used in cement plants and for concrete blocks.All the other solid waste will be reused to the maximum extent, else will be used for low land filling. Thepower requirement is 50 MW, of which 18 MW will be sourced from CPP and balance 32 MW fromAPEPDCL.After detailed deliberations, the Committee prescribed following TORs for undertaking detailedEIA/EMP study:1. Executive summary of the project2. Photographs of the proposed plant area.3. A line diagram/flow sheet for the process and EMP4. Coal linkage documents5. A copy of the mutual agreement for land acquisition signed with land oustees.6. A site location map on Indian map of 1:10, 00,000 scale followed by 1:50,000/1:25,000 scaleon an A3/A2 sheet with at least next 10 Kms of terrains i.e. circle of 10 kms and further 10 kmson A3/A2 sheets with proper longitude/latitude/heights with min. 100/200 m. contours should beincluded. 3-D view i.e. DEM (Digital Elevation Model) for the area in 10 km radius from theproposal site. A photograph of the site should also be included.7. Present land use should be prepared based on satellite imagery. High-resolution satelliteimage data having 1m-5m spatial resolution like quickbird, Ikonos, IRS P-6 pan sharpened etc.for the 10 Km radius area from proposed site. The same should be used for land used/landcovermapping of the area.8. Topography of the area should be given clearly indicating whether the site requires any filling. Ifso, details of filling, quantity of fill material required, its source, transportation etc. should begiven.9. Location of national parks / wildlife sanctuary / reserve forests within 10 km. radius shouldspecifically be mentioned. A map showing land use/land cover, reserved forests, wildlifesanctuaries, national parks, tiger reserve etc in 10 km of the project site.10. Project site layout plan showing raw materials, fly ash and other storage plans, bore well orwater storage, aquifers (within 1 km.) dumping, waste disposal, green areas, water bodies,rivers/drainage passing through the project site should be included.11. Coordinates of the plant site as well as ash pond with topo sheet co-ordinates of the plant siteas well as ash pond with topo sheet should also be included.12. Details and classification of total land (identified and acquired) should be included.13. Rehabilitation & Resettlement (R & R) should be as per policy of the State Govt. and a detailedaction plan should be included.14. Permission from the tribals, if tribal land has also to be acquired along with details of thecompensation plan.15. Permission and approval for the use of forest land, if any, and recommendations of the StateForest Department. .16. A list of industries containing name and type in 25 km radius should be incorporated.17. Residential colony should be located in upwind direction.18. List of raw material required, analysis of all the raw materials and source along with mode oftransportation should be included. All the trucks for raw material and finished producttransportation must be “Environmentally Compliant”.67
