PREAMBLE
With reference to MINISTRY OF ENVIRONMENT, FOREST AND CLIMATE CHANGE
NOTIFICATION, NEW DELHI. GOVT OF INDIA Vide Gazette Notification of 15th January and
20th
January-2016, the “District Level Environment Impact Assessment Authority” (DEIAA) and
“District Level Expert Appraisal Committee” (DEAC) are to be constituted under the Chairmanship of
Deputy Commissioner at a district level for stream lining the process of environmental clearance for
mining of minor minerals.
The DEAC will scrutinize and recommend the prior environmental clearance of mining of minor
minerals on the basis of District Survey Report to the DEIAA. This will a model and guiding document
which is a compendium of available mineral resources, geographical set up, environmental and
ecological set up of the district and replenishment of minerals and is based on data of various
departments, published reports, journals and websites.
The Ministry of Environment, Forests & Climate Change (MoEFCC), Government of India,
made Environmental Clearance (EC) for mining of minerals mandatory through its Notification of 27th
January, 1994 under the provisions of Environment Protection Act, 1986.Keeping in view the
experience gained in environmental clearance process over a period of one decade, the MoEFCC came
out with Environmental Impact Notification, SO 1533 (E), dated 14th September 2006. It has been made
mandatory to obtain environmental clearance for different kinds of development projects as listed in
Schedule-1 of the Notification.
Further, In pursuance to the order of Hon’ble Supreme Court dated the 27th February, 2012 in
I.A. No.12- 13 of 2011 in Special Leave Petition (SLP) (C) No.19628-19629 of 2009, in the matter of
Deepak Kumar etc. Vs. State of Haryana and Others etc., prior environmental clearance has now
become mandatory for mining of minor minerals irrespective of the area of mining lease; And also in
view of the Hon’ble National Green Tribunal, order dated the 13th January, 2015 in the matter regarding
sand mining has directed for making a policy on environmental clearance for mining leases in cluster for
minor minerals. The Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change in consultation with State
governments has prepared Guidelines on Sustainable Sand Mining detailing the provisions on
environmental clearance for cluster, creation of District Environment Impact Assessment Authority and
proper monitoring of minor mineral mining using information technology and information technology
enabled services to track the mined out material from source to destination.
The DEAC will appraise, scrutinize and recommend the prior environmental clearance of mining
of minor minerals to the DEIAA on the basis of District Survey Report. This will a model and guiding
document which is a compendium of available mineral resources, geographical set up, environmental
and ecological set up of the district and replenishment of minerals and is based on data of various
departments, published reports, journals and websites. The District Survey Report (DSR) will form the
basis for application for environmental clearance, preparation of reports and appraisal of projects.
2
The Report will be updated once every five years. The main objective of the preparation of
District Survey Report (as per the Sustainable Sand Mining Guideline) is to ensure the following –
1. Introduction
2. General Profile/ Physiography of Chikkaballapur District
3. Over view of mining/Quarrying activities in Chikkaballapur District.
4. Mining/Quarry Leases in the District.
5. Details of Royalty/Revenue received in last three years.
6. Production of Sand, M-Sand and Major/Minor Minerals in last three years.
7. Rivers /streams details in the district.
8. Land Utilization – Forest, Agriculture, Horticulture, Mining/Quarrying ,etc.,
9. Geology and Mineral Wealth.
1. INTRODUCTION
Minerals and ores are wasting assets. Their conservation through rational mine planning,
prudent exploitation and judicious utilization is therefore, obligatory on the part of both the individuals
responsible for, and institutions charged with, the exploitation of minerals / ores from the mother earth.
Mineral resources get progressively exhausted as they are mined and removed greatest care is, therefore,
required in planning for a wise utilization of mineral resources which are non-renewable.
Identification of areas of aggradations or deposition where mining can be allowed; and
identification of areas of erosion and proximity to infrastructural structures and installations where
mining should be prohibited and calculation of annual rate of replenishment and allowing time for
replenishment after mining in that area.
2. GENERAL PROFILE/ PHYSIOGRAPHY OF CHIKKABALLAPUR DISTRICT
a) CHIKKABALLAPUR DISTRICT AT A GALANCE
Chikkaballapur district is a newly created district in the state of Karnataka,(during 2007)
India. It is surrounded by five hills and it is located at a distance of 55 km from the state capital
Bengaluru. It was carved out of the existing Kolar district by moving the Taluks of Gowribidanur,
Gudibande, Bagepalli, Chikkaballapur, Sidlaghatta and Chintamani into the new district. In the language
of the state, Kannada, it is called Chikkaballapur. Chikka means small in Kannada.
In the regional language, Kannada, the city is pronounced Chikkaballapur. "Chikka" in
Kannada means "small", while "balla" means the measure to quantify food grains, and "pura" means
"town". Thus, it’s a place where people used to use small measures to quantify the food grains in ancient
times. The place has always been known as an agricultural centre for the region. Chikkaballapur is the
District Headquarters of the newly created (2007 August) District of Chikkaballapur in the state of
Karnataka, India. Sometimes, Chikkaballapur is spelled Chikkaballapur. The nearest airport is at
Bangalore.

engineer and states man Sir Mokshagundam Visvesvarayya). It is a regional transport and educational
hub, and is a major site for grape, grain, and silk cultivation. With recent development, it is widely
believed that Chikkaballapur will become part of "Greater Bangalore".
GOWRIBIDANUR:
The name Gowribidanur could have originated from the terms- Ghori [Grave] and Bidanur [a
common name for towns in the old Mysore state]. It has been said that Tipu Sultan had some of his soldiers
buried here. To this day a mosque built by him stands with some old graves. The old school, Acharya high school

way back in its infancy and was labelled a model school in the country. Dr H Narasimhaiah is one of the famous
sons, who was born in Hossur village of this taluk. Born into a poor family he struggled in his early years and rose
to become the Vice-Chancellor of Bangalore University. It is only because of his efforts and commitments about
his hometown that led the people towards education. "The Infosys Science Center" which is in Hossur village, is
just like a miny Vishweshwaraiah technological museum and students all over the district used to visit Hossur.
The science center is present in the National High School campus of Hossur. Hossur is the first village in

c). HISTORY; The ruler of Avathi Mallabiregowda's son Marigowda was hunting one day at
Kodimanchanahalli forest. A rabbit was standing in front of the dogs without fear. Seeing this, ruler was
very happy and told his son that is due to the boldness of the people of this place. As such the ruler took
permission from king of Vijaynagar and built a fort and formed a town. This in future becomes
Chikkaballapur. During the ruling of Baichegowda king of Mysore attacked the fort but had to withdraw
due to the interference of Marathas. Sri Dodda Byregowda who came to power after baichegowda
acquired the land, which was taken by Mysore king.
In 1762 during the ruling of Chikkappanayaka, Hyder Ali captured the town for a period of 3
months. Then Chikkappanayaka agreed to pay 5-lakhs pagodas, and then the army was taken back.
After this, Chikkappa Nayaka with the help of Murariraya of Guthy tried to get back his powers.
He was hiding at Nandi hills along with Chikkappa Nayaka. Immediately Hyder Ali acquired
Chikkaballapur and other places and arrested Chikkappa Nayaka. Then with interfere of Lord Corn
Wallis, Chikkaballapur was handed over to Narayanagowda. After knowing this, Tippu Sultan again
acquired Chikkaballapur.
In 1791 British occupied Nandi & left Narayanagowda to rule the town. Due to this fight
between Britishers and Tippu Sultan again started. Narayanagowda lost his administration. Later on
British defeated Tippu. Chikkaballapur also came under the administration of Wodeyars of Mysore,
which is now a part of Karnataka. The north-south National Highway NH-7 goes through the town.

g). GROUNDWATER SCENARIO
The ground water occurs in semi-confined aquifer conditions with an
average depth range of 700 to 800 feet and in some areas even up to 1000 feet. Since all agricultural
activities are, depend on bore wells drilled, both south west pre monsoon and post monsoon ground
water level depletion is being noticed for longer period observations. Within this District 51
observation bore wells drilled by our department long back. Available 05 years (2012-2016) water
level fluctuation is considered for estimation. Average maximum water level is 61.60mt and
minimum average water level is 17.56mt Average thickness of soil cap is 1.50mt. As observed and
by local enquiry average yield of bore well is 1.50 lps. Total district average static water level is
34.68 meters (without pumping).

h). QUALITY OF GROUND WATER:-
Quality of ground water plays an important role in Irrigation and domestic purpose. It
depends on the formation in which the ground water is encountered. The quality of ground water is most
important not only for domestic consumption but also for flora and fauna of the Universe for different
usages. The Chemical Quality analysis of the water samples reveals that the nature of the water is
weather acidic or alkaline by analysis of pH i.e.,(Hydrogen Ion Concentration). If pH is less than 6.5 is
categorized as acidic water and > 8.5 is categorized, as alkaline water. pH between (6.5 to 8.5) is
preferable and suggestible as per W.H.O. Standard. Beyond this limits water pH may affect the mucuses
membrane and water supply system scale formation.
Like wise there are other parameters which affect human health and also affects flora and
fauna of the universe among these very important parameters are Fluoride, Nitrate and Total
Hardness..More than 25% of Groundwater in Chikkaballapur District is having higher concentration of
Fluoride (216 villages). As noticed almost 90% of Bagepalli Taluk, 70-80% of Gudibande Taluk, 50-
60 % of Chintamani Taluk, 30% of Northern part of Sidlaghatta Taluk and 20% of Northern part of
Gowribidanur Taluk are having higher concentration of fluoride that is > 1.5 mg/l which comes in non
permissible limits (>1.5 mg/l ). and Nitrates (162 villages) which leads to Total Hardness which is unfit
for human consumption by causing so many diseases.
Water samples collected frpm 51 observation wells of Chikkaballapur district were
analysed The maximum value of 3.12mg/L Fluoride found in thattagaripalli village of Bagepalli Taluk.
The maximum value of 221.6mg/L Nitrate found in Hosur village of Gowribidanur Taluk. Out of 51
sample 01 sample of shidlaghatta town of shidlaghatta taluk contains 0.58mg/L, total iron which is
beyond the permissible limit of drinking water specification. The maximum value of 936mg/L Total
hardness found in Hossur village of Gowribidanur Taluk.

11% of the total area of the district is covered by forest and 68 % by cultivable land. 28 % of
the area is uncultivated (08-09). Area has sown in the district forms 40% of the total area of the district.
The predominant crops grown are finger millet, groundnut and pulses. Finger millet
occupies about 27 % of the total cultivated area. The important irrigated crops are paddy, mulberry,
sugarcane, potato and other vegetables. The important commercial fruit crops grown are mango and
grapes. The area irrigated by wells constitutes 99% of the total irrigated area. Dug well irrigation
practice is largely replaced by bore-well irrigation. Irrigation is being practiced both in the valley as well
as in upland areas.
16
The district is predominantly agrarian. In the process of silk production the mulberry plays
a vital role which receives several inputs during its growth including chemical fertilizers. However,
unilateral usage of heavy doses of chemical fertilizers upset the availability of different plant nutrients.
The district known for Silk and Milk .There are 3354 reeler families of which 30 are engaged in
multiend units. Area under mulberry in district is 13358.53 hectares in 1131 villages covering 15570
families .Annually 145.55 lakh disease free silkworm laying are brushed to produce 9425 M.Tonnes of
silkworm cocoons and silk of 1346 M.Tones with average yield 71 kg per 100 disease free laying and
generates Rs.282 crores income for the Sericulturists.

6. PRODUCTION OF SAND, M-SAND AND MAJOR/MINOR MINERALS IN LAST THREE YEARS.
Manufactured Sand (M-Sand)
Sand is used as fine aggregate in mortars and concrete. Natural river sand is the most preferred
choice as a fine aggregate material. River sand is a product of natural weathering of rocks over a period
of millions of years . It is mined from the river beds and sand mining has disastrous environmental
consequences. River sand is becoming a scarce commodity and hence exploring alternatives to it has
become imminent. Rock crushed to the required grain size distribution is termed as manufactured sand
(M-Sand) . In order to arrive at the required grain size distribution the coarser stone aggregates are
crushed in a special rock crusher and some of the crushed material is washed to remove fines. This
investigation is an attempt to evaluate the characteristics of mortars and concrete using M-Sand as fine
aggregate. For the purposes of comparison Characteristics of mortar and concrete with river sand has
also been explored.
18
River sand in many parts of the country is not graded properly and has excessive silt and
organic impurities and these can be detrimental to durability of steel in concrete whereas manufactured
sand has no silt or organic impurities.

Environmental Impact
The River sand lifting from river bed, impact the environment in many ways:
Due to digging of the sand from river bed reduces the water head, so less percolation of
rain water in ground, which result in lower ground water level.
The roots of the tree may not be able to get water.
The rainwater flowing in the river contents more impurities.
Erosion of nearby land due to excess sand lifting
Disturbance due to digging for sand & lifting, Destroys the flora & fauna in surrounding areas
The connecting village roads will get badly damaged due to over- loading of trucks,
hence, roads become problem to road users and also become accidents prone
Diminishing of Natural Rivers or river beds, not available for future generations

dykes, Pegmatite veins, Laterites
The major rock formations of are the Laterites ,Granites & Gneissic granites The eastern
portion is mainly composed of laterites and gneissic granites where as the hilly terrain forming the
western portion of the Taluk is composed of coarse grained granites. These formations are intruded by
dolerite dykes and pegmatite veins.
Granite is a common type of felsic intrusive igneous rock that is granular and phaneritic in
texture. Granites can be predominantly white, pink, or gray in colour, depending on their mineralogy.
The word "granite" comes from the Latin granum, a grain, in reference to the coarse-grained structure of
such a holocrystalline rock. By definition, granite is an igneous rock with at least 20% quartz and up to
65% alkali feldspar by volume. A granitic rock with a porphyritic texture is known as a granite
porphyry. Granitoid is a general, descriptive field term for lighter-colored, coarse-grained igneous rocks.
Petrographic examination is required for identification of specific types of Granitoids.
The granites exposed in the form of bold hills extending north-south in the western
portion of Chikkaballapur are coarse to medium grained with grey colour. These rocks are
subjected to physical and chemical weathering give rise to sandy soil .This soil is very useful in
ground water recharge. The hill near Yellodu village is famous for its “Queen Rose’’ granite
rock.
23
Laterite: A small patch of laterite is exposed at Sidlaghatta Taluk Laterite capping
is observed at 3-4 m above the surface. They act as good aquifers.

b). GEOMORPHOLOGY:-
Geomorphologically the area forms an undertaking terrain having sub
dendritic type of drainage pattern. Maximum elevation at Nandi hills on the south-
western portion of the district with an height of 4851 feet with an maximum inclination
towards north-western portion (i.e., with the minimum contour) and also some of
elevated middle portion of the district tapering edges at the periphery of north-west and
eastern portion of the district. More number of irregularly scattered tanks throughout the
district having concentration all along the nalas. Moderate pediment zones between the
hills and the pediplain is formed around Jakkalamadagu (Veeradimmammana Kanive).
Chikkaballapur district forms typical Granite and Gneissic terrain of Archean age is
noticed south-western portion of the district near Nandi (highly elevated hillock) and
small hill ranges on the western portion and also on the south-eastern portion of the
district near (Murgamalla hill range) Chintamani Taluk. Lateritic capping is observed on
the southern and southeast peripheral edge of the district. Drainages that runs on the
western and north-western portion of Chikkaballapur District joins Uttara Pinakini river,
Which further leads to Andhra Pradesh.

MAP-9 GEOMORPHOLOGY MAP OF CHIKKABALLAPUR DISTRICT
SOIL:- Soil is a thin layer of material on the Earth's surface in which plants have
their roots. It is made up of many things, such as weathered rock and decayed plant and animal
matter. Soil is formed over a long period of time.
Soil Formation takes place when many things interact, such as air, water, plant
life, animal life, rocks, and chemicals. Soil erosion, caused by wind and rain, can change land
by wearing down mountains, creating valleys, making rivers appear and disappear. It is a slow
and gradual process that takes thousands, even millions of years. But erosion may be speeded up
greatly by human activities such as farming and mining. Soil develops very slowly over a long
period of time but can be lost too quickly. The clearing of land for farming, residential, and
commercial use can quickly destroy soil. It speeds up the process of erosion by leaving soil
exposed and also prevents development of new soil by removing the plants and animals that
help build humus. Today's farmers try to farm in a way that reduces the amount of erosion and
soil loss. They may plant cover crops or use a no-till method of farming. Soil is an important
resource that we all must protect. Without soil there is no life.
A Prolonged weathering has created a thick mantle of soil representing A, B, C
horizons in many places sometimes extending to tens of meters. The soil in Chikkaballapur
district occurs in land forms, ridges, pediments, plains and valleys.
25
The soil in Chikkaballapur district have been classified into different categories
namely,
Red sandy soil: These kind of soil are light textured, varying from sand or gravely to loamy are
highly leached. They have good infiltration characteristics. Infiltration rate is around 11 cm/hr.
It is in almost all sloppy and pediplain regions. The thickness is about 0.5 to 1.5 mts. This type
of soil is composed of fine to medium grained and is very fertile.
B.C.Mixed fine sandy soil: This type of soil is common on lower slopes and all along the
valleys and nalas course and tank beds. The clay and admixture is moderate at slopes and is
more in valley portions. Due to intensive, agricultural activity in low relief lands, the fine red
sandy soil is appears as blackish mixed fine sandy soil, which is almost grey in color the
thickness of the soil type varies from 1 to 2 m from place to place.
Clayey loam soil:- These kind of soil are dark grey usually calcareous in texture. They have
moderate to poor infiltration characteristics.
Laterite soil:- Laterite soil are seen with varying thickness over schistose and gneissic
formations. They have moderate infiltration characteristics.
Black soil:- They are dark grey, dark brown to dark reddish brown and are clayey in texture.
They have moderate to poor infiltration characteristics.
