2. Bhopal- City of Lakes

Bhopal is known as the City of Lakes for its various natural as

well as artificial lakes and is also one of the greenest cities in

India. The geographical location of Bhopal is 23° 15′ 0″ North

Latitude and 77° 25′ 0″East Longitude. Bhopal, the capital of

Madhya Pradesh, is a fascinating amalgam of scenic beauty,

old historic city and modern urban planning. Bhopal is the 16th

largest city in India and 231st largest city in the world. It is

basically divided into two parts - old Bhopal and new Bhopal.

The old city with its marketplaces and fine old mosques and

palaces still bears the aristocratic imprint of its former rulers,

among them the succession of powerful Begums who ruled

Bhopal from 1819 to 1926. Equally impressive is the new city

with its verdant, exquisitely laid out parks and gardens, broad

avenues and streamlined modern edifices. Bhopal is one of the

greenest and cleanest cities in the country.

“AMALTAS WESTMINSTER” is a group housing projectproposed to be developed by AMALTAS INDIA LTD.in capitaltown of Madhya Pradesh - Bhopal on Ayodiya Bye Pass Highway.This Township is coming in 20630 Sq.mt. (2.063 Ha.) of area.

In this project, Residential Apartments are designed using objectoriented technology. The project will provided a soothing goodhousing for inhabitants. The proposed project is architecturallywell planned and aesthetically pleasing. Development of greeneryis integral part of the proposed project to ensure oxygen-richand aesthetically pleasant environment.

5. Project Location: - The proposed group housing residential

project “Amaltas westminster” is located on a plot measuring

20630 sq.mt. (2.063 Ha.) at Village: Raslakhedi & Tehsil –

Huzur, District-Bhopal (M.P.). The proposed site is a plain land

devoid of any significant vegetation and undulation . It is located

at khsara no : 32/282/32/1/1KA/2 on the outer fringe of

Bhopal Town, about 8 km from Bhopal Railway Station

6. Connectivity: - Being located on on Ayodhya Bye Pass High

way the proposed site is well connected to road, rail and air

ways. The nearest railway station is Bhopal which are at an

aerial distance of 8 km. The nearest airport is the Raja Bhoj

International Airport, which is about 11 km from the proposed

site. Apart from this, State Road Transport bus services provide

Page 5: CONCEPTUAL PLANenvironmentclearance.nic.in/writereaddata/FormB/TOR/PFR/... · Phase –IV : - Assessment of ... through the EIA Proposal consisting of Form 1, Form 1A and Conceptual

regular and frequent connectivity to the people to and from

Bhopal. The project complex will have traffic entry/exit from the

service road of sufficient width.

7. Necessity of Infrastructural Project [Dwelling Units];-The capital city of the Central Indian state of Madhya Pradesh-

Bhopal is also known as the Lake City of India. Bhopal has

beautiful landscape having beautiful hills and lakes. The major

areas in Bhopal include New City and Old City.

The population of the city is growing on account of high birth

rates and also due to migratory population coming to Bhopal

from all around the area for employment, education, and

business. In order to provide this burgeoning population with a

good quality of life so that they can contribute to the further

development of the region and the country, it is imperative that

they are provided with good, healthy and sustainable housing

facilities having uninterrupted water / power supply and proper

sewage / solid waste management facility.

The proposed Amaltas westminster will bridge the gap

between demand and supply of Sustainable dwelling units in

Bhopal by constructing state-of-the art residential

accommodation [apartments]

The rapid growth rate of Bhopal is likely to have direct impact on

the environment which needs to be taken care of. Hence, the

proposed project will be developed on the concept of eco-

sustainability having energy efficiency, proper landscapes, open

13. DESCRIPTION OF ENVIRONMENT

Before the start of any Environmental Impact Assessment

study, it is necessary to identify the baseline levels of relevant

environmental parameters, which are likely to be affected as a

result of the construction and operation of the planned project.

A similar approach has been adopted for conducting the study

for the proposed residential complex. The planning of the

baseline survey through secondary sources, commenced with

the short-listing of impacts and identification of parameters for

which the data needs to be collected. This section assesses the

nature, type and dimensions of the study area and describes

the relevant physical and biological environmental components

of the project site.

Physical Resources

Accurate determination of baseline conditions of natural and

physical environmental components at project site is vital for

robust impact assessment. The components of the

environment for which the information has been collected are

described in the following subsections.

Geography, Land Use and Drainage(a) Geography

The district of Bhopal is landlocked by the Guna district to the

north, Vidisha in the northeast, Sehore in the southwest,

Raisen in the east and Rajgarh in the northwest. This beautiful

city has mesmerizing landscapes, historical monuments, busy

commercial complexes and peaceful residential areas. The city

Page 13: CONCEPTUAL PLANenvironmentclearance.nic.in/writereaddata/FormB/TOR/PFR/... · Phase –IV : - Assessment of ... through the EIA Proposal consisting of Form 1, Form 1A and Conceptual

shares the borders with two large but beautiful lakes, which

are known as the Upper Lake or Bada Talab (360 square km)

and Lower Lake or Chota Talaab (10 square km), respectively.

Some of the important hills of the city are Shayamala and

Idgah hills that fall in the northern part of Bhopal, while the

Arera and Katara hills occupy central and southern region

respectively

(b) Physiography & DrainageThe region forms a part of the vast Deccan plateau of Central

India. It marks the beginning of the plateau at the northern

boundary. There are five district physiographic units in the

region:

1. The Satpura Range

2. The Vindhyan Range

3. The Bundelkhand Region and

4. The river valleys.

The hill ranges running across the plateau have a subdued

topography of old peneplains. The Satpura range located with a

E-W trend, it has an average elevation of 600 m amsl and

highest elevations of 1350 m amsl. The vindhyan range occurs

in the Central part of the region and has a ENE-WSN trend. It

is seperated from the Satpura range by the Narmada river and

vast tract of its basin area. The vindhyan range extends into

the Malwa plateau and Bundelkhana region. The malwa

plateau and Bundelkhana region form high ground and are

Page 14: CONCEPTUAL PLANenvironmentclearance.nic.in/writereaddata/FormB/TOR/PFR/... · Phase –IV : - Assessment of ... through the EIA Proposal consisting of Form 1, Form 1A and Conceptual

dissected by a large number of northerly flowing rivers and

their tributaries. The rest of the area is occupied by low lying

areas along river courses. The river valleys are very limited and

form narrow belts along the rivers.

DrainageThe natural drainage of the city is provided by three main

streams, which are of course, joined by small nallahs and

rivulets. On the northeastern side, the drainage is provided by

river Halali and on the southeastern side, it is provided by

Kaliyasot River. Both these rivers, drains out in Betwa, Halali

near Vidisha and Kaliyasote near Bhoipur. On the

southwestern side, the drainage is provided by various small

nallahs, which drain out in Kolar River, which ultimately joins

river Narmada.

The drainage water of old city including wastewater of straw

products and cotton Mills is carried away by a Nallah, which

joins river Halali, which is a perennial river. The water of this

river is being used for irrigation purposes and very little

discharge meets river Betwa near Vidisha. Moreover, the

meeting point is on the down streamside of water works for

Vidisha town. River Kaliyasote, which provides drainage on

the southeastern side, joins Betwa near Bhojpur in Raisen

District. There is hardly any possibility of utilization of this

water on the way for irrigation purposes as passes through a

hilly terrain. The water polluting industries located on this

side will discharge supply to Vidisha. The Development of

Page 15: CONCEPTUAL PLANenvironmentclearance.nic.in/writereaddata/FormB/TOR/PFR/... · Phase –IV : - Assessment of ... through the EIA Proposal consisting of Form 1, Form 1A and Conceptual

Mandideep Industrial growth Centre and its extensions need to

be strictly controlled in respect of industries to be permitted in

this area to avoid water pollution.

For the purpose of landscape studies, the natural drainage of

Bhopal can be classified mainly in three categories viz.

Dendritic (tree like branching), Basil and parallel pattern.

These are the major landscape indicators revealing the

biophysical phenomenon of the area.

Site is almost flat without significant undualation.. No wetland

or low lying area within project site.

Climate and Meteorology

The Bhopal city is perched at an average height of 500 meters

above the sea level. Bhopal has a humid subtropical climate,

with cool, dry winters, a hot summer and a humid monsoon

season. Summers start in late March and go on till mid-

June, the average temperature being around 30 °C (86 °F),

with the peak of summer in May, when the highs regularly

exceed 40 °C (104 °F). The monsoon starts in late June and

ends in late September. These months witness about 40

inches (1020 mm) of precipitation, frequent thunderstorms

and flooding. In such moderate climate, residential areas can

be developed at higher densities as three to four storied

buildings can be constructed without causing discomfort to the

occupants.

Relative Humidity

Page 16: CONCEPTUAL PLANenvironmentclearance.nic.in/writereaddata/FormB/TOR/PFR/... · Phase –IV : - Assessment of ... through the EIA Proposal consisting of Form 1, Form 1A and Conceptual

During the southwest monsoon season the relative humidity is

high and after the withdrawal of the monsoon humidity

decreases. The mean monthly maximum relative humidity in

the morning of August month is 83% and mean monthly

minimum relative humidity measured in the morning of May is

28 %

Temperature and Rainfall

Ambient temperature is a key parameter as it indirectly governs

the dilution capacity of the atmosphere. Generally, the

temperature controls the reaction rate of pollutants as well as

how fast the surface dries out. If the temperature is high, the

moisture in the surface will evaporate, exposing the surface to

effects of wind erosion thereby increasing dust emissions.

Temperature near the surface also controls the buoyant

component of turbulence (vertical motion). Heat from the

earth's surface heats the air near the ground causing it to rise.

This phenomenon reaches a maximum in early afternoon and is

a minimum near sunrise and sunset.

The average temperature is around 25 °C (77 °F). Temperatures

rise again up to late October when winter starts, which lasts up

to early March. Winters in Bhopal are cool, sunny and

comfortable, with average daily temperatures around 16 °C (61

°F) and little or no rain. The winter peaks in January when

temperatures may drop close to freezing on some nights.

Lowest temperature ever recorded was 0.3C. Total annual

rainfall is about 1146 mm (46 inches).

Page 17: CONCEPTUAL PLANenvironmentclearance.nic.in/writereaddata/FormB/TOR/PFR/... · Phase –IV : - Assessment of ... through the EIA Proposal consisting of Form 1, Form 1A and Conceptual

Air EnvironmentThe existing quality of the air environment serves as an indexfor assessing the pollution load and the assimilative capacity ofany region and forms an important tool for planning projectactivity in the area. The Pre monsoon season Data [Secondarydata of MPPCB] was analyzed to understand the air quality inBhopal region and to assess the impacts on air environment.Analysis of nine year air quality data with respect to PM10 showsan increasing trend till 2008 and slight decrease in 2009. NO2

also showed an increasing trend but SO2 showed a decreasingtrend.

Noise EnvironmentNoise is an area of concern and the high noise levels may be

attributed to vehicular movement and congestion on the roads

as well as on-going construction work around the area High

noise levels are a concern for sensitive receptors, i.e., hospitals,

educational institutions, etc..

The ambient noise levels at Bhopal ranged from 59 to 91 dB (A).

Maximum noise levels were recorded between 8 and 9 PM on

Deepawali day [source: MPPCB]. The increased commercial

activities during the festival season and increased vehicular

traffic also contributed to the noise levels

Land EnvironmentIn modern economies, various types of activity, including

agriculture, residential and transportation, produce a large

amount of wastes and new type of pollutants. Sustainability of

soil productivity in the present scenario will encounter

Page 18: CONCEPTUAL PLANenvironmentclearance.nic.in/writereaddata/FormB/TOR/PFR/... · Phase –IV : - Assessment of ... through the EIA Proposal consisting of Form 1, Form 1A and Conceptual

constraints of degraded resource base, need for higher inputs

and energy use which leads to environmental degradation. It is

difficult and sometimes misleading to consider soil or land

without its environmental context, and concern for the soil and

its use is inseparable from the one for ecology as a whole.

Soil Type : - The land surface of Bhopal consists of black

cotton soil at various depths from 1 to 3.0 m in Bhopal. Black

soil is composed of Basaltic rocks mainly found in Deccan Trap

(Malwa Plateau). Such soil mainly consists of Iron and lime

rocks. The presence of iron gives it the Black color and the

presence of lime increases its moisture retention capacity

therefore needs less irrigation. Soil erosion is lesser in Black

soil. The yellow Murram is visible after black clay soil. They are

also called black cotton soil due to prominent presence of

Organic matter & high ion exchange materials. They are

famous for their expansion & shrinking characteristics due to

presence of clay. These soils possess alkaline pH. The result of

the permeability coefficient shows that soil is clay with some

silt content. This is a measure of the soils hydraulic

conductivity. It determines the rate at which water will migrate

through an aquifer towards well heads.

Sewage Treatment PlantThe MoEF requirement mandate that this project should provideits own sewage treatment plant and recycle and reuse thetreated effluent to conserve the water from local municipalsupply.

It is proposal provides a captive sewage treatment of the entiredomestic and flushing waste generated in the apartment. It issuggested that the S.T.P. shall be based on MBBR which willprovide high efficiency plant, meeting the treated watercharacterization as per the state pollution control norms. Themain feature of the plant shall comprise of perforated screenchamber, oil and grease chamber, equalization tank, MBBRTank, Secondary tube settler, Sludge, sludge dry bed, Chlorinecontact tank, activated carbon filter, treated effluent storagetank, sludge storage sump etc.

It is proposed to install sewage treatment plant of capacity 310KLD for project area. The treated water from residential areareused for flushing, Horticulture and other purposes.

MBBR (Moving Bed Bio Reactor) TECHNOLOGY

MBBR technology employs thousand of polyethylene biofilmcarriers operating in mixed motion within an treated wastewatertreated basin. Each individual bio carrier increases productivitythrough providing protected surface area to support the growthof heterotrophic and autotrophic bacteria within its cells. It isthis high-density population of bacteria that achieves high-ratebiodegradation within the system, while also offering processreliability.

This technology provides cost-effective treatment with minimalmaintenance since MBBR processes self-maintain an optimumlevel of productive biofilm. Additionally, the bio film attachment

Page 29: CONCEPTUAL PLANenvironmentclearance.nic.in/writereaddata/FormB/TOR/PFR/... · Phase –IV : - Assessment of ... through the EIA Proposal consisting of Form 1, Form 1A and Conceptual

to the mobile bio carriers with in the system automaticallyresponds to load fluctuations.

PROCESS BENEFTS

o Compact Designo A fraction of the size of conventional systemso Expandableo Capacity can be easily upgraded by simply increasing the

fill fraction of bio film carrierso Single Pass Processo No return activated sludge stream requiredo Load Responsiveo Actively sloughed bio film automatically responds to load

fluctuationso Minimum Maintenanceo No F/M ratios or MLSS levels to maintain

MBBR processes are an excellent solution for commonwastewater applications including :

BOD Reduction Nitrification Total Nitrogen Removal

Moving Bed Bio Film Reactor systems deliver a flexible, Cost-effective, and easy-to-operate means to address currentwastewater requirements and the expandability to meet futureloads or more stringent discharge requirement within a compactdesign.

METHOD OF OPERATION

o Source of water : Sewageo Treatment Concept : Preliminary treatment + Aerobic

biodegradation treatment followed by tertiary treatment

Page 30: CONCEPTUAL PLANenvironmentclearance.nic.in/writereaddata/FormB/TOR/PFR/... · Phase –IV : - Assessment of ... through the EIA Proposal consisting of Form 1, Form 1A and Conceptual

o Treatment objective : To use the water for safe disposalor to use the water in auxiliary purposes like flushing,gardening etc.

Secondary Treatment ;The Moving Bed Bio-film Reactor will be filled with the specifiedquantity of bio media made of light weight plastic material toenhance the surface area growth of microorganism. Oxygenrequired for the bacterial growth will be supplied throughFine/Coarse Bubble Diffuser systems. The system envisagesoxygen transfer because of fine/coarse bubbles and increasedcontact with the sewage.The overflow from MBBR tank will begravitating to secondary tube settler. To increase the retentiontime of settling tank, PVC tube settler will be provided. This unitis provided to arrest the sludge from leaving the system. Thearrested sludge will be taken to the sludge Holding Tank.Collected Sludge will be pumped to the Filter Press for de-watering. The filtrate from filter press will be taken to theequalization cum collection tank. Clear overflow from tubesettler will be gravitated to further tertiary treatment. Driedsludge from filter press can be used as manure or can bedisposed off as per statutory norms.Tertiary Treatment ;Overflow from the tube settler will be gravitated to ChlorineContact Tank where provision will be made for hypochloritedosing as required for disinfection. Dosing will be done bypumping. Treated sewage will be pumped to pressure Sand Filterfollowed by Activated Carbon Filter. Treated sewage from carbonfilter will be used for gardening and flushing.
