2. AIR ENVIRONMENT

The base line Ambient Air Quality (AAQ) status within 10 km study area has been assessed

through a monitoring network of 8 AAQ sampling stations during October 2020 to December,






2020. Design of network for Ambient Air Quality monitoring locations were decided on

meteorology & available infrastructure facilities. The base-line Ambient Air Quality of the study

area was monitored for Particulate Matter (PM10 & PM2.5), Sulphur Dioxide (SO2) and Nitrogen

Dioxide (NO2), CO & VOC. The result for the same is given as below:

60 µg/m3 100 µg/m3 80 µg/m3 80 µg/m3

Note: CO: Below Detectable Limit; VOC: Below Detectable Limit

Analysis of ambient air samples revealed that the Air quality is found well within the prescribed

limits of National Ambient Air Quality standards.

The main source of gaseous emission is flue gas emission from stack attached to Steam boiler.

Briquettes will be used as a fuel & total fuel requirement for proposed project will be 1 MT/Day.

Adequate stack height will be provided for proper atmosphere dispersion of pollutants. The

probable emitted pollutants will be PM, SO2& NO2. Multicyclone separator followed by bag filter

will be provided with stack attached to boiler as an APCM. Since Diesel will be used as a fuel for

D. G. Set (back–up system) the flue gas emission will also be well within prescribed norms and

there will be no need of any air pollution control measures for D. G. Set.

3. WATER ENVIRONMENT

Analysis of ground water and surface water samples revealed that it is suitable for domestic

activity including agricultural activity. Ground water quality in the area meets the Water Quality

Standards (IS 10500) for drinking water whereas surface water quality in the area meets the

Water Quality Standards (IS 10500) for drinking water except for parameters like pH and TDS.

A. Water Requirement

The total fresh water requirement for the proposed project will be 6.8 kl/day. Out of this said

fresh water quantity 1 kl/day will be used for domestic purpose, 2.8 kl/day will be used for

industrial activities and 3.0 kl/day will be used for greenbelt development purpose. The

required water will be obtained through own borewell.

B. Wastewater Generation and its Disposal

The total generation of domestic wastewater will be 0.9 kl/day. The domestic wastewater






generated will be sent to soak pit. The total industrial effluent generation will be 1.3 kl/day,

which will be from cooling tower, washing, Boiler & R.O. Industrial effluent will be collected in

Collection cum Neutralization tank and then it will be sent Filter press for sludge separation.

Separated sludge will be collected, stored and disposed off at approved TSDF site. Filtrate water

from filter press will be taken in to holding tank and then effluent will be evaporated using

Evaporator followed by condenser through heat energy. Condensate from evaporator will be

reused in industrial activities. Therefore, no effluent will be generated and the stated process

would be called a zero discharge process.

4. LAND / SOIL ENVIRONMENT

During operation activity, minor impact of air, water and solid waste pollution on soil causes

direct / indirect effect on soil. As all necessary air pollution control steps will be provided and

based on the results of the dispersion model for the Ground Level Concentrations of various

pollutants after proposed project, there will not be any adverse impact of air pollution on soil. It

may be noted that there will be no disposal of untreated effluent on land. So, there will be no

adverse effect on land / soil due to water.

All necessary control steps will be provided for handling, storage and disposal of

solid/hazardous waste generated from the proposed plant. Thus, there will not be any

significant impact of solid/hazardous waste on the soil environment.

5. NOISE ENVIRONMENT

Noise level was recorded at 8 locations within the study area to provide the baseline data to

describe the existing situations.

The minimum noise level measured in the study area was 48.6 dB (A) in day time at Juni

Shedhavi village and 36.5 dB (A) at Jamnapur village in night time. The maximum noise level

measured in the study area was 73.6 dB (A) in daytime at Project Site and 57.2 dB (A) in night

time at Project site. The noise levels (Leq) of the residential area within the impact zone varied

from 54.3 - 54.6 dB (A) in the day time and 38.1- 40.2 dB (A) in the night time.






6. SOCIO-ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT

An assessment of socio-economic environment forms an integral part of an EIA study. Socio-

economic environment – demographic & related socio-economic data was collected from

District Census Handbook to assess socio-economic status of the study area. For proposed

project activity, total 8 nos. of skilled and unskilled employees/workers will be required. The

indirect employment will be generated by way of transportation, shopkeepers and other casual

employment for many people. Local people will be given preference wherever found suitable for

all the jobs in the plant. Economic status of the local people will improve due to the increased

business opportunities, thereby, making a positive impact. Educational, medical and housing

facilities in the study area will considerably improve.

7. ECOLOGY & BIODIVERSITY

EB study reported a total of 135 plant species, 9 Herpetofauna, 31 birds and 5 species of

mammals from the buffer zone of M/s. R P Polymer However, no threatened biodiversity

reported with highest density or richness from the core and buffer zones of the study area.

Schedule- 1 species peacock & shikra) was observed in buffer zone of the project site. However,

conservation plan of peacock & shikra is prepared in advance. In addition, no true multi species

forest type was recorded in the vicinity of the two-five kilometer radius in and around the

project site. It clearly indicates the low productive potential of the terrestrial ecosystem. Since

the project associated activities do not required any additional land, the terrestrial ecosystem is

considerably free from the project related impacts.

8. SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT

The main hazardous waste generation will be ETP Sludge + Evaporation Residue, Process

Residue, Used Oil and Discarded Plastic Bags/Drums. ETP Sludge + Evaporation Residue will be

disposed off at approved TSDF site. Process Residue will be disposed off at approved CHWIF

site. Used Oil will be reused within premises as a lubricant or sold to registered recycler.

Discarded Plastic Bags/Drums will be returned to supplier or sold to authorized recycler.

The unit will provide isolated area for the storage of hazardous waste. Thus, hazardous waste

management system provided by the unit will be adequate and there will not be any major

impact on the environment due to hazardous waste.

9. ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN

An Environmental Management Plan has been prepared for mitigation of the adverse impacts.

The Environmental Management Plan describes in brief, the management’s plan for proper and

adequate implementation of treatment and control system for pollutants and for maintaining

the environment. It also include development of green belt, proper safety of workers,

environmental monitoring plan, rain water harvesting, fire protection system and measures etc.

An Environmental Management Cell will be formed for effective implementation of

Environmental Management Plan.






10. ENVIRONMENT MONITORING PROGRAM

Monitoring of environmental factors will enable us to identify the changes in the environmental

impacts at various locations and their mitigate measures. To ensure the effective

implementation of the EMP, monitoring of ambient air quality, stack emissions, analysis &

monitoring of water environment and noise level will be carried out as required / specified by

statutory authority.

11. RISK ASSESSMENT

Risk analysis and study have been carried out for identification of hazards, selection of

maximum credible scenarios, risk mitigation measures etc. All the hazardous chemicals will be

stored and handled as per MSDS guidelines. Personal protective equipment’s will be provided to

the workers.

12. GREEN BELT DEVELOPMENT

A greenbelt of approximately 1215.10 m2 will be developed within the project site to minimize

the air pollution, noise pollution, balancing eco-environment, soil erosion / protection etc.

Greenbelt area is 33.65 % of the total plot area.

13. PROJECT BENEFITS

The proposed project will become beneficial to the surrounding area or community in terms of

infrastructural development, social development, employment and other benefits.

The proposed project has a potential for employment of skilled, semi-skilled and unskilled

employees during operation phase. A total of 8 persons are likely to get employment due to the

proposed project. The project gives 2% of project cost for socio-economic development

activities in surrounding villages which will be continued further.

14. CONCLUSION

Negligible impacts will occur on air quality. However, all the necessary air pollution

control measures will be provided.

No ecological damage will occur.

No adverse impacts will occur on water environment.

Local employment opportunities will increase.

Various other environment parameters like Forest/ National Park/ Sanctuary and

Religious / Historical Places will not be affected.

Environment Management Plan has been formulated to control all the pollutant

parameters and Environment Management Cell will be set-up to ensure that these

parameters do not exceed the norms set out by the concerned authorities.

After commissioning of the proposed project, the Environmental Management Cell will

take care of all the pollution control measures.

It can be concluded on a positive note that after the implementation of the mitigation measures

and environmental management plan during the construction & operational phase, there will be






negligible impact on the environment due to the proposed project.

1.2 Purpose of the EIA Report

Development of industry in India has increased economic growth and improved living

standards of people. The economic growths are achieved through industrialization,

infrastructure development. Industrialization has played a major role in country development.

Industrialization has many other advantages. Although the development of industry leads to

rapid consumption of natural resources, fuel etc. in day to day operational activity. These will

deteriorate resources and increase emissions of waste in terms of solid, liquid and gas. To

control the environment pollution from industrial activity, the Government has framed

regulations which are governed by MOEF&CC in India.

It may be noted that the proposed products (Resins) namely Phenol Formaldehyde Resin,

Melamine Formaldehyde Resin and Urea Formaldehyde Resin (being synthetic organic

chemicals) falls under Category 5(f) as stated in Environment Impact Assessment Notification

Published on 14th September, 2006 and not fall into Small Industrial Unit criteria as per the

Notification dated 25th June 2014. Further, the proposed project location is outside the notified

industrial estate. So, project proponent has to obtain the Environmental Clearance from the

Ministry of Environment & Forests & Climate Change, New Delhi.

As per requirements of the notification, an application was submitted to MoEF&CC on 30th

March, 2020 along with Form-1, PFR and draft TOR. Subsequently the Committee has issued the






Standard TOR wide letter No. IA-J-11011/93/2020-IA II (I) dated 19th May, 2020. Basis on the

TOR points issued by MoEF&CC, an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) report has been

prepared covering all aspects of the TOR points.

The purpose of the preparation of Environment Impact Assessment (EIA) report is to obtain

Environment Clearance from Ministry of Environment & Forests & Climate change, Govt. of

India, New Delhi and to understand the present environment of the project site along with its

surroundings and to provide Environment Protection measures to the likely impacts during

construction of the project and after commissioning of the project.

1.3 Promoters and their background [Ans to TOR no.2 (II)]

Table 1.2 Promoters and their background

1.4 Need of the Project & Its Importance to the Country. [Ans. to TOR no.2 (III)]

The cost of proposed project is approximately Rs. 1 Crore. Proposed project will manufacture

synthetic organic chemicals (resins) namely Phenol Formaldehyde Resin, Melamine

Formaldehyde Resin and Urea Formaldehyde Resin with total production of 920 MT/Month

which will be manufactured within the industry for sale purposes.

Phenol Formaldehyde resin is used in many of the industrial products. Phenolic laminates are

made by impregnating one or more layers of a base material such as paper, fiberglass or cotton

with Phenol Formaldehyde resin and laminating the resin-saturated base material under heat as

well as pressure.

Melamine Formaldehyde resin is a hard, thermosetting plastic material which is made from

Melamine and Formaldehyde by polymerization. It is then used to cross-link with alkyd, epoxy,

acrylic, and polyester resins used for surface coatings. Melamine resin is often used to saturate

decorative paper that is laminated under heat and pressure and then pasted onto particle board;

the resulting panel is often called melamine and commonly used in ready-to-assemble furniture

and kitchen cabinets.

Urea Formaldehyde resin is used in many manufacturing processes like decorative laminates,

cotton blends, foundry sand molds, textiles, paper wrinkle resistant fabrics and rayon due to its

useful properties. It is used to glue wood together. Urea formaldehyde resin was commonly used

to produce electrical appliances casing.

In India, particularly in Gujarat good quality raw materials are available at cheap rates, enabling

the manufacturing process at low cost. This increases the margin of profit as compared to other

manufacturers in the world. The project proponent intends to establish the new unit to meet the

current and future market demand.

The proposed unit will contribute revenue to the State & Central exchequer in the form of GST for

inter-state movement, corporate taxes etc. Indirect contribution to the Central & State exchequer

will be there due to Income by way of registration of trucks, income tax from individual as well as

taxes from associated units. Thus, the proposed unit will help the Government by paying different

taxes from time to time, which is a part of revenue and thus, will help to develop the area. In the

foreign market demand of the products is also significant, which will boost the export potential of

the company as well as the country. Export oriented units plays vital role in economy

development and local physical infrastructure for further boosting of industrial development

with sustainable approach as the industries need to maintain good environment & safety

condition to get better foreign market.

1.5 Location of the Proposed Project & Siting Criteria Ans. to TOR no.4 (III) & (IV)

The proposed project site is located at Survey No. 626, Village: Jornang, Taluka & District :
