1. INTRODUCTION
1.1. Preamble
Environmental protection and sustainable development have been the cornerstones
of the policies and procedures governing the industrial and other developmental
activities in India. Ministry of Environment, Forests & Climate Change (MoEF & CC)
has taken several policy initiatives and enacted environmental and pollution control
legislations to prevent indiscriminate exploitation of natural resources and to
promote integration of environmental concerns in developmental projects, one such
initiative is the notification on Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) of
developmental projects issued on 27.1.1994 under the provisions of Environment
(Protection) Act, 1986, subsequently this notification was revised as Environmental
Impact Assessment (EIA) Notification S.O.1533 (E) of 14th September 2006, the entire
EC process was reengineered and also highlighted the need to introduce specific
sectors/categories under the sectors such as industry and infrastructure and also
included new sector for certain criteria’s of construction projects including new
townships, settlement colonies, commercial complexes, hospitals and office
complexes to obtain environmental clearance, further this notification was amended
subsequently.
This proposed project falls under item 8(b) – Townships & Area development
project. As per the recent amendment to EIA notification, dated 09/12/2016, the
item 8 of schedule has been amended & Building/construction projects / area
development projects & Township projects are categorised as A & B. As per the
amendment the Proposed Expansion project falls under category A (Built up area
≥3,00,000 Sqm). The proposed TOR has been prepared as per EIA guidance manual
for Building, Construction, Township and Area Developmental Projects prepared by
Administrative Staff College of India, Hyderabad dated February 2010.

2. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
2.1 Goal and Objectives.
Bangalore has been the fastest-growing city of India since the past few decades. IT
has been the major growth driver and is responsible for aggressive real estate
development in the city. Being the IT hub of India, Bangalore has a multi-cultural
population with good social infrastructure, excellent educational institutes and
constantly upgrading physical infrastructure.
Currently, the most promising residential micro-markets are Outer Ring Road
(ORR), Sarjapur Road, Whitefield and North Bangalore. Bangalore is the third-
largest hub for High Net worth Individuals (HNIs). It is estimated to be home to
over 10,000 individual dollar millionaires. Bangalore has a large base of expatriates
who live and work in the city. The residents are well travelled, cultured and have
sophisticated tastes.
There has been increased demand for high-end residential apartments & commercial
office space in the city, particularly in the Central Business District (CBD), Secondary
Business District (SBD), Whitefield, North Bangalore and Outer Ring Road sub-
markets. We expect consumer demand for high-end mixed development projects in
these sub-markets to be steady over the short term.
Bangalore is one of the most promising markets for villa projects in India. Villa and
row house developments are most active in the North Bangalore, ORR, Sarjapur
Road and Whitefield micro-markets. High-end residential property buyers in
Bangalore are very sensitive in terms of amenities, product quality and unit sizes.
In response to the ever growing demand for quality real estate in office space and
housing, M/s. Larsen and Toubro Construction Equipments Ltd. is coming up with
high end luxury Residential, SEZs, Commercial and Retail project called “L&T
Raintree Boulevard” to meet the demand by,
Providing a broad spectrum of integrated solutions.
Meeting and exceeding customer needs and expectations.

2.3 Project Site and Surroundings
The proposed project site falls under the Mixed use development Zone according to
the BDA CDP Plan, the site is easily accessible by all major roads, the NH – 7 Bellary
road is the major road connecting the project site. The project site is surrounded by
prominent educational institutions such as Gandhi Krishi Vignana Kendra (GKVK)
of University of Agricultural Sciences on the western side and National Centre for
Biological Sciences (NCBS) on the southern side.
2.4. Present Activity
Presently the site is empty/converted area, earlier the site consisted of
manufacturing unit of M/s. L & T Construction Equipments Ltd the sister concern of
Larsen and Toubro Limited and was manufacturing two major groups of products in
the factory premises, namely – Hydraulic excavators and Hydraulic components.
L&T CEL has precision machining and sophisticated robotic welding process. The
factory had LPG storage, Diesel storage and storage of other gases like Oxygen,
Argon, etc., which are stored in different areas. There are sophisticated paint shops
which are located in both Hydraulic and Machine shop areas.
Manufacturing plant in Bangalore was started way back in 1975 with manufacturing
of hydraulic excavators and since then it has steadily expanded into a major
production facility with two plants in the campus one manufacturing excavators and
the other manufacturing hydraulic components.
The company deploys a direct workforce of around 600 employees including 395
workmen for manufacturing and also has developed a large Supplier’s base in and
around Bangalore specific to the construction equipment industry.
2.5 Relocation of Manufacturing Plant
L&T CEL was producing around 300/350 excavators per month during 2006-07
during the peak industrial boom in the areas of mining (for coal & Iron ore) and

infrastructural development. However this has now dropped to 100-125 machines
per month due to slump in infrastructure /mining activities for coal and iron ore.
The competition from low cost players likes Hyundai and cheaper Chinese products
have also eroded the market share.
L&T CEL has a supply contract with Komatsu for the contract manufacturing of
Hydraulic excavators which will come to an end in next couple of years. After which
the production of Excavators at Byatarayanapura factory is expected to stop.
With the turnover dropping drastically and with cost of running the factory and
maintaining the facility increasing month after month, the management was faced
with a decision to take care of the employees, manage costs and to keep the factory
running, after the end of the supply contract.
Various industrial land parcels were assessed within 30 Kms radius from the
existing factory and after proper due diligence, suitable land near Doddaballapur
was identified and the entire industry has been relocated and the factory has been
completely shifted from Byatarayanapura location and is being operated since
December 2016.
All the required statutory approvals from MoEF & KSPCB have been obtained for
the L&T CEL at its new location.
2.6 Due Diligence study
A comprehensive and detailed due diligence study has been conducted before
commencing with the construction of proposed project. An environmental audit has
been carried out with a review focusing on screening for the potential sources/units
of the contaminants, any suspects of the contamination from the activity, confirms
through investigation and analysis, for the past activity of L & T Construction
Equipments Ltd. and future compliance of the Proposed Construction activities of
the L&T Realty division.
When undertaking the audit, the key risk indicators that had been considered are.

3.2.1. Landuse pattern
The use of land is determined both by physical factors such as topography, climate,
and soil types as well as human factors such as population density, technological
capability, culture & tradition etc. Land use has a major impact on natural resources
including water, soil, nutrients, plants and animals. “Land Use” in the urban
planning context means the use to which zones of land are put to. It could be
residential, commercial, industrial, parks and open space, play ground, traffic and
transportation etc. The use to which land should be put to must be optional. This can
be done only if the existing land use is estimated.

6. DISASTER MANAGEMENT PLAN.
6.1. Introduction
Rapid development of the city has posed wide-ranging hazards threatening safety
and health of people. Accidents may adversely affect the environment and the
people living in the vicinity. These accidents can be minimized to a great extent by
proper procedures, handling and training. But it may be difficult to reach zero risk
or absolute safety level. Whenever such incidents do occur in order to prevent loss of
lives and damage to property, it becomes necessary to take immediate steps to
control the situation. This can be achieved through a planned advance preparation to
face such a situation with respect to both on site and off site emergencies.
6.2. On-Site Management Plan
The On-Site plan will be circulated to all concerned members of emergency teams. It
is essential that all concerned familiarize themselves with the overall on-site
emergency plan and their respective roles and responsibilities during and
emergency. They should also participate regularly in the mock drills that will be
conducted so as to keep themselves and the emergency organization in a state of
perpetual preparedness at all times to meet any emergency.
6.2.1. Objectives, Scope and contents of On-site Emergency Plan
Objectives of Emergency Planning are to maximize the resource utilization and
combined efforts towards emergency operations and would broadly cover the
following.
1. To localize the emergency and if possible eliminate it.
2. To minimize the effects of accidents on people and property.
3. To take remedial measures in the quickest possible time to contain the incident
and control it with minimum damage.
4. To mobilize the internal resources and utilize them in the most effective way.
5. To get help from the local community and government officials to supplement
internal manpower and resources.

The primary purpose of the on-site emergency plan of DMP is to control and contain
the incident and so to prevent if from spreading. It is not possible to cover every
eventuality in the plan and the successful handling of the emergency will depend on
appropriate action and decisions being taken on the spot. Other important aspects
needing to be considered include the following:
6.3. Emergency
A major emergency in any situation is one, which has the potential to cause serious
injury or loss of life, which may cause extensive damage to the structures in the
vicinity and environment and could result in serious disruption to normal operation
both inside and outside the layout premises. Depending on the magnitude of the
emergency, services of the outside agencies may also be required for supplementing
the internal effort to effectively handle the emergency and to contain the damage.
The Management has to take effective steps to assess, minimize and wherever
feasible eliminate the risks to a large extent. Accidents may still occur and it is
necessary to be fully prepared to tackle all such emergencies if and when they occur.
It is likely that the consequences of such emergencies will be confined to the units
concerned or may affect outside. If the consequences are confined within the plant
boundary, it is then termed as On Site Emergency and will be controlled by Chief
Emergency Controller.
In order to generate the plans it is necessary to first determine the kinds of accidents
leading to an emergency that can occur in the layout. The most widely used
technique in practice is based on experience accumulated over many years and
safety audits.
A. Methodology
The considerations in an emergency planning include the following: -
1. Identification and assessment of hazards and risks
2. Hazard, consequence analysis
3. Alarm and communication procedures
Proposed TOR for Proposed Expansion of Mixed use development comprising of Residential, SEZs, Commercial & Retail units of L&T at Survey Nos. 88/1 to 104/4 of Byatarayanapura Village, Yelahanka Hobli, Bengaluru North.

4. Identifying, appointment of personnel & assignment of responsibilities
5. Identification and equipping Emergency control centre, Identifying
Assembly, Rescue points, Medical facilities.
6. Emergency preparedness plan, procedures, steps to be taken before,
during and after emergency.
7. Formulation of plan and emergency sources.
8. Training rehearsal, evaluation and updating the plan
B. Structure of Emergency Management
a. Noticing the accidents
b. Informing declarer of emergency
c. Declaration of emergency
d. Functions of declarer
e. Interaction with outside agencies
C. Identification and Assessment of Hazards
This stage is crucial to both on-site and off-site emergency planning and requires
systematic identification of all possible emergencies that could arise in the plants.
These should range from small events, which can be dealt by plant personnel
without any help from external agencies to the largest event that would require
outside help. To tackle such emergencies effectively, it is essential to have clear-cut
action plan. Experience has shown that for every occasion that the full potential of an
accident is realized, there are many occasions when some lesser event occurs or
when developing incident is made safe before reaching full potential.
D. Infrastructure at Emergency Control Center
Emergency control centres should therefore contain the following
An adequate number of external telephones; if possible, one should accept
only outgoing calls, in order to bypass jammed switchboards during an
emergency.
An adequate number of internal telephones
Radio equipment

Electric shock results in Irreversible damage to brain cell begin followed by
deterioration of the organs.
Rescue and first aid:
Do first aid quickly and without fuss and panic
Switch off the supply if this can be done at once.
If not possible use a dry stick, dry cloth or other non-conductor to separate
the victim from electrical contact.
The rescuer must avoid receiving shock himself by wearing gloves or
using a jacket to pull the victim.
Always keep in mind that delay in rescue and resuscitation may be fatal.
Every sound counts.
ii. Artificial Respiration: Give artificial respiration if breathing has stopped. There
are several methods of artificial respiration, if the victim is nit injured over the face,
try mouth to mouth.
a) Mouth to mouth Method:
If there is obstruction to breathing, remove it with your fingers if it in
mouth. Several sharp blows between shoulder blade may help to is lodge
an obstruction.
Lie casually on his back, put something under his shoulder to raise them &
allow his head to fall backwards. The head should be, if possible be a little
lower than the trunk. Remember that speed is essential.
Kneel at the causalities head and grasp his arms at the wrists then cross
them firmly over the lower chest. This movement should force air out of
his lungs. Press with the hands crossed on the lower part of the chest and
maintain pressure for two seconds.
Release this pressure and pull out his arms with a sweeping movement
upwards and outwards above his head and backwards as far as possible.
This movement should cause air to be drawn in to his lungs. Retain the
arm in this position for three seconds.

Repeat these movements rhythmically about twelve times a minute
checking the mouth frequently for obstructions. Each cycle will thus take
give seconds- two seconds for chest pressure and three seconds for arm
lift.
With the causality on his back there is danger of aspiration of vomit,
mucus or blood re-entering the system. This risk can be reduced by
keeping his head extended and a little lower than the trunk.
If an assistant is available, he can press the causality lower jaws so that the
chin is jutting out.
The assistant should also ensure that the mouth is kept open as far as
possible and head is tilted to one side.
When natural breathing begins, your movement should be adapted to
correspond to it.
If burns are present, cover them with a dry sterile dressing
Handle the causality gentle
Do not allow people to crowd around and block fresh airflow
