Observations/Discussions: Technical presentation during the meeting also included the details like general information



EIA was October to December 2014. Air quality monitoring was carried out at six stations.

During the study period average concentration of all the parameters viz. PM2.5, PM10 , SO2 ,

NOx, CL2 & HCl were well within prescribed limit at all locations. Estimation of emissions from

the plant has been made by AERMOD, developed by the AERMIC (American Meteorological

Society (AMS) / United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA). As per dispersion

modelling studies, the resultant ground level concentrations of PM10, NOx SO2, HCL & CL2

due to operation of all the proposed plants at various locations are well within the prescribed

limits. Proposed expansion will be within the existing industry which is located in notified

industrial area and thus public hearing is exempted as per MoEF&CC Office Memorandum no.

J – 11013/36/2014-IA-I dated 10/12/2014.

On asking by the committee, PP informed that they will provide adequate height of stack with

molten salt heater and they will add lime with fuel in proposed CFBC Boiler for control of SO2.

Committee suggested to provide CEMS (Continuous Emission Monitoring system) for flue gas

and process gas stacks/vents. On asking about control of gaseous emission of hydrogen &

chlorine, PP mentioned that the entire process is closed loop. The vent of chlorine is through

the scrubbers attached to the sodium hypochlorite plant and vent of HCl is through the

scrubbers attached to HCl plants. While discussing the capacity of NCTL pipeline for proposed

effluent quantity, PP informed that the work for new pipeline of NCTL is almost completed and

they have got the permission for effluent quantity to be generated after proposed expansion.

During the meeting, while discussing about the socio-economic upliftment activities to be

carried out by the company, the project proponent informed that the allocated fund for

community development for the financial Year 2015-17 is over INR 80.0 Lacs. SAC had

contributed INR 44.2 Lacs in the previous three financial years i.e. 2011-12, 2012-13 and 2013-

14 to improve the socio-economic status of people in the study area. Further PP explained

about various activities carried out in surrounding villages viz. Sanitation work by providing

toilets, renovation of Anganwadi and Kitchen used for midday meals, up gradation of library,

arrangement of health check up etc.

After detailed discussion, it was decided to recommend the project to SEIAA, Gujarat for grant

of Environmental Clearance.

Unit has proposed one DG set (125 KVA) in which HSD 20 Lit./hr will be used as fuel. No

process gaseous emission from existing as well as proposed expansion. Hazardous waste to

be generated are ETP waste (61 MT/Month), Discarded containers (28 MT/Year), Used Oil

(0.026 KL/Year) & Filter cloth contaminated with waste sludge/residue (0.050 MT/Year). ETP

waste & contaminated filter cloth will be disposed off at the nearby common TSDF. Discarded

barrels / containers / bags / liners will be either reused or returned back to suppliers or sold only

to the authorized vendors after decontamination. Used oil will be sold only to the registered

recyclers.





EIA was October to December 2014.

The study period considered for EIA was March to June 2014. Air quality monitoring was

carried out at 8 stations. The average concentration of PM10 varied from 42.08 μg/m3 to 79.29

μg/m3 , PM2.5 varied from 1.01 μg/m3 to 4.53 μg/m3, SO2 varied from 12.18 μg/m3 to 22.87

μg/m3, NOX varied from 9.50 to 11.05 μg/m3 at all monitoring locations during the study period.

Values of all parameters were well within the prescribed limits. Assessment of impacts on air

quality is done by using Gaussian Dispersion Formula by computer based dispersion models.

Lakes Environmental Software “AERMOD View 8.2.0” has been used to find out the maximum

ground level concentration of Pollutant. As per dispersion modelling studies, the resultant

ground level concentrations of PM10, PM2.5 , SO2 & NOx due to operation of all the proposed

plants at various locations are well within the prescribed limits. Proposed expansion will be

within the existing industry which is located in notified industrial area and thus public hearing is

exempted as per MoEF&CC Office Memorandum no. J – 11013/36/2014-IA-I dated 10/12/2014.

Committee noted that PP has proposed to send their effluent to CETP of Sarigam after

achieving CETP inlet Norms. On asking about CETP performance, PP informed that the CETP

is commissioned recently and performing well. Committee asked to comply CETP inlet norms

strictly. After detailed discussion, it was decided to recommend the project to SEIAA, Gujarat

for grant of Environmental Clearance.

Gujarat Pollution Control Board on 18/12/2013.

The project proponent submitted the Environment Impact Assessment Report to this

office vide their letter dated 10/01/2014.

The project was appraised based on the additional information furnished and the details

presented before the committee in the SEAC meeting held on 20/08/2014 and sought

for certain details.

The project proponent submitted the additional information sought by the committee,


The committee recommended SEIAA, Gujarat for granting the environmental clearance

to the proposed project expansion vide letter no. EIA-10-2011-1142-E-3014 dated

27/11/2014.

Project was considered in the 7th meeting of SEIAA held on 23/01/2015. During the

meeting, it was decided by SEIAA to refer back the case to SEAC for reconsideration on

the following point:

1. Detail technical justification of boiler blow down quantity and cooling tower bleed

off quantity.

2. Quantity and concentration of VOC from condenser vent.

3. A Copy of the GIDC drainage line connection showing wastewater discharge

quantity.

Page 33 of 70


During the meeting, the project proponent gave following clarification for the above points :

Technical justification of boiler-blow down quantity and cooling tower bleed off quantity

is submitted. As per their submission total make-up water requirement : Boiler Water +

Boiler blowdown will be 39 KL/day (35 KL/Day Boiler water + 4 KL/Day Boiler blow

down) and total make-up Water is 43 KL/day (39 KL/Day Evaporation & Drift Losses +

4 KL/Day Bleed-off). Detailed calculations for Boiler blow down and cooling tower bleed

off are given.

Quantity and concentration of VOC from condenser vent is submitted in tabular form for

solvents namely Xylene/IBA. Methanol, IBA, MCB & ODCB. Considering the worst case

release concentration of the VOC i.e. 50.7 kg/hr, isopleths have been plotted. The result

shows maximum concentration of 515 μg/m3 at about 62 meters from the factory

boundary. This maximum VOC concentration of 515 μg/m3, is much lower than

documented time-weighted Average as well as Flammable Limits. Hence, there will not

be any adverse effect of the solvent losses on the human and the environment.

PP has submitted certificate from GIDC vide GIDC letter no.

GIDC/Bharuch/DEE/(Drg)/288 dated 15/04/2015. As per the letter, it is confirmed that

In view of the above, the matter was discussed in detail during the meeting and the

committee noted that as per the amendment dated 25/06/2014 of the EIA Notification-

2006, any project or activity specified in category “B” will be appraised at the central

level as category “A”, if located in whole or in part within 5 km from the boundary of Eco-

sensitive areas as notified under subsection (2) of section 3 of Environment Protection

Act-1986.

The committee also noted that inspite of the above mentioned amendment dated

25/06/2014 of EIA Notification-2006, the MoEF & CC, vide their letter dated 17/11/2014,

has transferred the proposal to SEAC Gujarat stating that:

“In response to MoEF’s clarification sought on the precise location of the project vis-à-

vis Girnar WL Sanctuary, PP vide letter dated 02.04.2014 submitted a letter no.

WLP/32/C/404 of 2013-14 dated 10.03.2014 which was received from the Office of the

Principal Chief Conservator of Forest, Government of Gujarat, Whereby it is stated that

the proposed Cement Plant is located at the shortest distance of 1.22 km from the

outermost boundary of Girnar Sanctuary, Gujarat and is outside the Eco-Sensitive

Zone of Girnar Sanctuary. In view of this, clearance is not required from the

NBWL as per MoEF letter no. 6-10/2011/WL dated 19/12/2012.

In view of para 2 above, the proposal is a category B project and should be appraised

for EC by the SEIAA/SEAC Gujarat.”

Considering the facts that

Though the proposal is of Category “A” project as per the amendment dated 25/06/2014

of the EIA Notification-2006, the MoEF&CC vide its letter dated 17/11/2014 transferred

Page 36 of 70


the proposal as Category B project for appraisal at SEAC/SEIAA Gujarat.

Further the project was considered by EAC at MoEF in January-2009 and EIA report

was appraised based on the deliberations, the proposal was recommended for

Environmental Clearance, with specific conditions, after submission of latest

meteorological data,

Further the project proponent has already submitted meteorological data of January-

2014 as well as other additional details to the MoEF&CC,

Further the project is pending & suffering since long.

Further the project site is outside the Eco Sensitive Zone of Girnar Sanctuary and does

not require NOC from standing committee of National Board for Wild Life as per the

letter no. WLP/32/C/404 of 2013-14 dated 10.03.2014 which was received from the

Office of the Principal Chief Conservator of Forest, Government of Gujarat,

To avoid any further inadvertent delay, which does not actually accrue any

specific advantage to the environment, the committee decided to recommend the

Conservator of Forest, Bharuch will submit the proposal to the state Forest Department for their recommendation and onward submission to the committee of secretaries, Regional Office, Bhopal for final approval. During the meeting, after detailed discussion it was decided to consider the project only after obtaining status of forestry clearance of the forest land required for Barrage left bank flood protection embankment from Kalpsar department. Kalpsar department vide their letter dated 04/04/2015 submitted that total of 183.5521 ha forest land is involved in the proposed barrage project i.e for the construction of left bank approach road and forest land is going under submergence due to the proposed barrage project. As per original proposal, requirement of forest land for construction of approach road embankment was 31.40 ha and for construction of flood protection embankment was 15 ha. It was mentioned that the details submitted earlier was prepared based on the preliminary design and GIS maps/data available at that time.

The matter was discussed during the meeting & it was found that instead of involvement of total 46.4 ha (31.4 ha +15 ha) of forest land as proposed earlier, the total forest land involved in the proposed barrage project is 183.5521 ha. as per the submission of the Kalpsar Department dated 04/04/2015. Considering the fact the committee took note of the MoEF&CC’s O.M. dated 09/09/2011 which states that

“At the stage of consideration of proposals for EC in respect of projects involving forestland, the project proponent would inform the respective EACs about the status of their application for forestry clearance along with necessary supporting documents from the concerned Forest Authorities. It will clearly be informed to the EAC whether the application is at the State level or at the Central level. The EAC will take cognizance of the involvement of forestland and its status in terms of forestry clearance and make their recommendations on the project on its merits. After the EAC has recommended the project for environmental clearance, it would be processed on file for obtaining decision of the Competent Authority for grant of environmental clearance. In the cases where the Competent Authority has approved the grant of environmental clearance, the proponent will be informed of the same and a time limit of 12 months, which may be extended in exceptional circumstances to 18 months, a decision on which will be taken by the Competent Authority, will be given to the proponent to submit the requisite stage-I forestry clearance. The formal environmental clearance will be issued only after the stage-I forestry clearance has been submitted by the proponent.”

In view of the above the Committee felt that a credible proof in support of the fact that they have already submitted their application to the concerned Competent Authority for diversion of the total forestland involved in the project and information regarding the status of their application (i.e whether the application is at the State level or at the Central level) for forestry clearance along with necessary supporting documents from the concerned Forest Authorities should be sought from the Kalpsar Department for further processing of the application and to inform the Kalpsar Department accordingly.

After detailed discussion it was unanimously decided to consider the project only after submission of the following information from the Kalpsar Department.

1. Exact details on component wise total forest land involved in the project, a credible proof in support of the fact that they have already submitted their application to the concerned
