Since, AAI did not appear the project’ was deferred, The project involves construction of new integrated terminal to handle 3400 peak hour Pax with built up area of 56750 sqm with basement and ground floor of 15,000 sq m each and first floor and second floor of 13375 sq m each. The building would have 3-level operations with Concourse at Level-1 and domestic departure at Level-2 and international departure at Level-3. The cost of the project is Rs.397 crores, energy conservation measures viz. and eco-friendly building materials viz. will be used. 9.5 acres from Navy will be acquired. The water requirement for the project will be from the municipal & recycled water. The total quantity of fresh water is 555 KLD and sewage generated is 400 KLD. The quantity of treated water would be around 400 m°/day. Rainwater harvesting systems are proposed to be installed. Energy efficient designs would be incorporated in the project. The project was reconsidered in the meeting of the Expert Committee for Infrastructure Development and Miscellaneous Project held on 23°, 24" and 25 January, 2008. Minutes of the meeting is placed at F/A. ‘The Committee after detailed discussions agreed to waive the pubic hearing and suggested the following additional TOR:- Details of the connectivity with the main road.

Details of the drainage pattern keeping in view the high range in the ‘The project was reconsidered in the Expert Committee meeting held on FR is information received from M/s Airports Authority of India which Details of the connectivity with the main road — Presently there is a state highway which passes adjacent to Dabolim airport and connects NH- 17 and NH-17A at difference points. The state highway connect NH-17 at Verna and Kesarvale both in Goa and passes through Dabolim Airport, Vasco-da Gama and Mormugao before merging with NH-17A at mormugao, NH-17A orginates from Karmali and terminates at Mormugao via Sancoale, Chicalim, Vasco d agama in Goa, While, NH-17 enters into the state near Polem and marches towards Mumbai via Verna, Kesarvale, Karmali and Panjim. Details of the under passes from the road to the airport to be provided = Airports Authority of India is planning to provide world class underpasses for proper connectivity of the Airport from national highway passing nearby, which does not pass through the Airports Authority of India land, The Airport Authority of India is taking up this issue with local State Authorities and National Highway Authority of India to plan the| feasibility and modalities of the proposed connection between highway and airport, so that the work can be taken up expeditiously. area — The natural drainage pattern of the area is towards south west comes under catchments and command area of Arabian Sea. Keeping in view the high coastal range, the complete project drainage pattern has been alien with the natural drainage pattern of the area. Adequate standard measures have been taken to check the soil erosion due to improper’ drainage and to recheck the turbulence during runoff during rainy season. It is also proposed to have two pipe systems. The wastewater shall be tredied through ETP and recycle for flushing and then soil disposal shall be treated in STP and recycled for gardening and cooling tower. This would conserve water and save in virgin water consumption by 45%. ~ | Details of the water recycling, recharging including the water balance — The soil of the project area is of lateritic origin and has a great absorption and diffusion capacity. The project meld the water harvesting scheme for recharging of groundwater. Attempts have been made to utilize a large part of rainwater for recharging of groundwater by adopting the standard and scientific practices of rainwater harvesting. Rainwater from different terraces and open areas shall be routed to catch pits through | storm water drains. ) Details of traffic circulation — It is proposed to ona level car parking to accommodate 1000 cars to facilitate about 17000-dsiving and departing air passengers on daily basis. All the activities regarding traffic tireulation would follow the existing rules-in-force, The circulation in the (uminal has also been planned for smooth arrival and departure of the passengers considering peak hour capacity of 3400 passengers:© e 6. Details of a judicious incorporation of some salient features of local architecture both inside and also in the out side plan wherever possible. Some notable local architect of Goa, many of whom are quite famous, may be consulted by the Airport Auth of India — The terminal form has been derived as a free flowing symbolizing a wave representing the proximity of sea and beaches of Goa. To make the terminal sleek, modern and transparent the structures of Roof Trusses has been hided to let the “magic Carpet” of the roof profile float on slender columns with vast overhang (cantilever). Blue tinge has been selected for external glass fagade of reflect water proximity of Goa. 7. Details of integrated management of sewage and solid waste management and details of energy efficient systems ~ Total quantity of solid waste generated will be 10.6 MT/day. The bio-degradable solid waste shall be utilized as organic manure for horticulture and the non bio-degradable’ waste shall be disposed through Municipality/sold to recyclers. The following measures shall be taken for energy conservation. > Energy savings as per ECBC guidelines. > Central plant for terminal building giving economies of scale and greater redundancy. > TS light fittings with automatic perimeter light sensing. > Solar street lights and road signs for saving energy. .

As per the proposal M/s Chandrakala Farm Products have an area of 2.13.5 ha of mining lease area bearing plot No.1125/3, 1125/4, 1124/4, 1098/4. The minerals to be mined are gare, illiminite and rutile. The geological reserves of beach sands within the’ mine lease area of 1.94 ha have been assessed as 97,000 tonnes within a depth of range of 2.5m. The mineable quantity of beach sand will be only 90% of the geological reserves considering the loses in the formation of mien benches, pathways, storage yards, etc, Based on these factors mineable reserves will be 87,300 t6nnes. It is proposed to mine 15 tonnes of beach sand per day. Reckoning only 200 effective days mining AS. operations per year, the annual production,will be 3000 tonnes and the life of the mine will be 29-years. As the “total mining area, mine depth and daily production are of such a small scale, the entire operations to exploit the heavy minerals are simple, Nevertheless, it is proposed to follow a well planned excavation/mining scheme confirming to the mining regulations and environmental obligations. Being a very shallow mine, the ji14 methodology of removal of the sand is very simple. No pre-mining operations are involved except removal of some scanty vegetation and extraneous materials, followed by slight surface scraping and leveling. No overburden removal is needed as sand is exposed almost at the surface, After the mining is carried out backfilling with the lights of 47% of raw will be transported by trucks from the processing units for backfilling and restoring the mining are to the original state. As a part of EMP the back filled or reclaimed area will be covered with vegetation and coconut plantation will be done. The water requirement of 200 litres/day will be obtained from existing dug well. The mineral processing unit will be located outside the CRZ area.

The site is located between 19°3'29"N — 19°4°29°N Latitude and 72°55'13"E — 72°56"13"E, longitude, Proposed site at Kanjur needs to be developed for its use as Integrated MSW management facility. The site development plan at the Kanjur village site will have the following elements:- () Strengthening of peripheral bunds and approach road ~ Strengthening the peripheral bunds has to be done at places where there are breaches and to widen these bunds to accommodate the access roads on top. The slopes on the creek ward side needs to be provided with paving of impervious material to arrest the ingress of seawatet into the site due to tidal fluctuations. () Provision for drainage mechanism for rainwater ~ The bottom and the slopes of the landfill shall be provided with proper water draining system. Proper drainage system shall be designed by the bidder to dispose the collected surface water from the landfill. ‘The landfill at Kanjur site will be designed to receive process residues and mixed waste during the first 2 years of operations. Thereafter, the landfill will receive only inerts and the process residues from MSW processing units. The site will be in accordance with the MSW (M&H) Rules, 2000. The capacity of the site will be adequate to receive process rejects Yor a’ period of 25 years. The site at Kanjur village site will be designed in 42 ha (approx.) area to receive only insert and the process residues from MSW processing unit In addition to the main landfill area, there will be a provision of a landfill of 5 ha (about square in shape) with designed height of about 20m that can receive upto 3,60,000 tones of mixed MSW (90 day of waste receipts at the rate of 4000 TPD). The purposg of this landfill is to provide an area to MCGM, with necessary infrastructure to commence sanitary landfill at the site. This area will remain under administrative control of MCGM for use in emergency. a ‘ NKY15 WV The other facilities for the project involves construction of a landfill site, landfill gas collection system which will be either flared or collected, leachate collection and treatment. The above process involves material intake system, pre-processing system, yard management activities, material stabilization, core segregation section, curing section, refinement section, grinding section, packing and storage system. As per Environmental Impact Assessment report 52.5 ha out of the total of 141.77 ha of site area falls under CRZ-IIL. The CRZ-IIl area comprises of about 37% of the site. The project area is surrounded by mangroves. The above project was discussed in detail. With regard to the site selection it was indicated by the proponent that at present three sites Gorai, Mulund and Deonar are under operation and there is no further capacity in these dumping ground to handle any more of solid waste. The balance life of these sites range from 0.9 years to maximum of 8 years, hence, these sites cannot handle any additional MSW. Further, it was informed that the MSW generation is expected to rise from current 6500 TPD in 2007 to 10500 TPD in 2030 and unless a new site is made available existing sites do not have adequate landfill capacity for a foreseeable future, Some of the alternative site which were considered within Mumbai city limits are:- (@) Darawali artd Erangal ~ A large part of the site was falling within the Coastal Regulation Zone area. +‘&—(b)__ Hariyali village, Powari — Limited site are available (~Sha). (©) Poisar, Kandivali— A major portion of the land was falling in the Sanjay Gandhi National Park. During the presentation it was indicated that some areas of the proposed site are covered with mangroves and destruction of mangroves attracts the Orders in Writ Petition No.3246 of 2004 of Bombay High Court. It was indicated by the proponents that the Chief Secretary, Government of Maharashtra has requested Ministry of Environment and Forests to consider issuing an amendment to the Coastal Regulation Zone Notification, to “permit dumping of city or town waste for the purposes of landfilling (excluding solid waste processing, facilities and landfilling of inert in scientifically engineered landfills), the existing practice if any shall be- phased out within a reasonable time not exceeding three years from the date of this notification”. The Committee after detailed discussion and taking note of the above proposed amendment agreed to recommend the project under Environment Impact Assessment Notification, 2006 subject-to the following, conditi (i) The proposed project can be undertaken in Coastal Regulation Zone area subject to the issue of the amendment to the Coastal Regulation Zone Notification, 1991 as proposed above. Pui ‘No activity in the mangrove area shall be undertaken without obtaining permissions from the Hon’ble High Court of Bombay. Though, some of the facilities such.as roads on stilts and conveyance systems are permissible under the Coastal Regulation Zone Notification, 1991, however, necessary permission shall be ‘obtained from the Hon’ble High Court if mangroves are proposed to be removed for such. facility. ‘The MSW at the site should be kept in & covered area to prevent percolation of rainwater in to the creek.” iv) The groundwater, surface water and air quality should be monitored regularly to assess the leachate contamination. (v) A leachate collection system should be provided to collect the leachates at a collection point. Treatment facility for the collected leachate should be provided.

M/s JSW have also submitted a copy of the revised Environmental Management Plan to Maharashtra State Pollution Control Board who have examined the matter and have filed an affidavit with their comments. The Committee for Infrastructure Development and Miscellaneous Projects needs to examine the revised Environmental Management Plan which incorporates the comments of MPCB. M/s JSW made a presentation and indicated that there have been certain changes made in the Environmental Impact Assessment/Environmental Management Plan keeping in-view the recommendations made by Maharashtra Pollution Control Board. The comments of the Maharashtra Pollution Control Board and the action proposed by JSW are as follows:- “1, Diversion of Road: “A road from Jaigad to light house and Karateshwar temple passes through the project area. The people residing in nearby villages as well as tourists presently use this road for approaching temple, lighthouse. and fort. if the new alignment of the road proposes to go along the boundary of the demarcated project area, the road construction will be taking place in CRZ zones and clase to sea.The impacts for the same has not been addressed as yet besides the socio-cultural aspects of the new alignment." Response by JS) + Ibis not a pertinent iste for phase I of the project for which EIA has been prepared and clearance accorded by expert appraisal committee. + The port area being custom notified (bonded) area and on account of NSPC & ISPS code requirements no thorough passage for public is allowed through the port premises. = JSW has proposed a bitwnen road for the access to the temple and lighthouse, gong around the port Periphery. From security angle such road is also required for vigilance and security monitoring. This road will be open to public before the kuchha road to the temple is closed for erecting boundary and the statutory procedure of seeking necessary permissions will be followed. * Transportation facility to the temple along public amenities lighting, drinking water, parks will be provided for general public free of cost. + The above proposal has been accepted by the Temple Trustees and the copies of acceptance has been submitted to the District Collector. + The present Kuchha road access will remain open to the public during Phase I construction of the Port Project. "Rights of public access will be extinguished by the District Collector only when the alternate arrangement ts in place and due procedure has been followed, 2, Coal Handling: "Visiting team observed high wind speed conditions at the project area, which needs to be considered in planning the coal handling and storage infrastructure. The long storage of #Sdays and high stack pile height of 10mtr and storage of about 5,00,000mt of fine imported coal make it necessary to devise and plan adequate air pollution control and mitigation measures including provision of dust suppression. measures, water spraying ‘system and green belt development. REIA has not apparently addressed this vital point adequately." Response by JSW: ‘© Dust Suppression Systems were designed considering prevailing wind conditions. © JSW group is running modern mechanized terminal at Goa, meeting all environmental standards. Mechanized unloading, mechanized covered conveyers with dust control nozzles at junction houses and at discharge and transfer points. A Entire stockpile will Be encircled with green belt and dust suppression sprinklers. JSW 1s commitied to go beyond the normal mitigation measures required and now planning to'have a covered stockyard for which additional budgetary provision of Rs 90 crore is being made. This has beenCG, 18 considered so that the common public will not have apprehensions about the dust emissions and they support future expansions. ‘+ Previous REIA has addressed the above points except with new addition of covered stockyard. 3. Effect on Local Ship Navigation: " The proposed project enivisages import of cogl which will be unloaded at the proposed jetty in Jaigad creek. It was informed that there will be a marginal increase in the traffic. It is necessary to ensure that fishing boat movements do not get adversely affected" Response by JSW: + River mouth opening is 4.5 km wide. + The proposed port navigational area is in Dhamankol Bay. The channel width is 200 m and the traffic ‘envisaged in Phase 1 is minimum 4 and max 5 Panamax vessels per month + Net maneuvering time in the channel per month is about 10 hr including berthing and un-berthing activities. Hence there would not be any hindrance to the fishing traffic. + Infact the marine control room will be manned round the clock with VHF sets, RADARs and stand by tugs which can assist the fishing vessels in distress and relay weather warnings. 4 4. Dredge disposal In the proposed development, dredging of the’ creek for about 5.5 million cum is involved, the EMP talks about the dredging procedures and also list of certain recommendations which are required to be adopted. The project proponent shall commit compliance of its own recommendations. In addition it has also been Proposed that the dredging material would be used for land reclamation purpose. EMP does not mention where this material will be exactly dumped and it's likely impacts. In addition there will also be an annual maintenance dredging which has not been covered inthe document. The impacts of dredging on the turbidity and ecology of the marine water are also not addressed adequately. Response by JS + Detailed bathymetry, geo-technical and geophysical surveys along with river discharge studies have been carried out, and this input data has been fed for carrying out mathematical model studies using MIKE 21 HD software. + Based on dispersion criteria, related to the quality of dredged material , dumping ground location (Latl 7degl8min N ; Long 73deg 7.Smin E) Between 20 to 25 m water depths have been approved. @ + For good order sake, further marine bore hole studies were carried out and we maintain that about 70% of * the dredged material will be used for reclamation purposes. + MMB is continuously monitoring the progress of the port and JSW is committed to implement EMP recommendations . + The capital dredging in Phase 1 is 5.5 million cu m and annual maintenance dredging is less than I million cum : + The impacts of dispersion of dredged material on turbidity and marine ecology has already been addressed and which shows that there will not be any permanent impact on marine flora and fauna. 5. Noise Mitigation The EMP envisages that, incremental rise in the ambient noise in the amblent noise level during operational phase due to various equipments will be of the level of 13dB(A) at a distance of Ik. Itis therefore necessary to propose specific measures to reduce noise levels. Response by SW: «Predictive mathematical modeling has beén undertaken at the time of EIA study to predict sound levels at various distances from the plant. * "Such modeling has considered worst case scenario i.e. simultaneous operation of all noise producing equipment from a common point and no attenuation by natural and man-made factors such as acoustic19 we enclosures (as required by the law) air absorption, atmospheric in homogeneities, atmospheric turbulence, vegetal cover etc. The study didn't apprehend significant impact of incremental noise levels as the habitation. is falling about. 2 km from the port boundary. The noise generating equipments would be operational at the base of 20 m high cliffs and this will act as a barrier The port will have 2.5 m high boundary wall as per ISPS code and will act as another barrier. Proposed greenbelt of 10 m wide with suitable tree species will also act as a barrier not only to the wind but also to sound. Hence these three mitigation measures will take care of incremental noise levels.

M/s ISW should make efforts to reduce the travel time to the temple. Further, a dedicated bus service should also be put in place to transport the pilgrims to the temple free of cost. With regard to dust from the coal stackyard it was recommended that the coal stackyard especially at the ‘boundary areas abutting the village should be covered. Adequate tree plantation’should be carried out all the ‘boundary of the coal stackyard. The tree plantation should be taken up in consultation with the Local Forest Department. | Adequate navigation safety should be provided for the movement of local fishermen and boats. ‘regard to disposal of ddredged material it was suggested by the Committee that a radio active tracer study should be undertaken to study the movement of the dredged material over a period of time. The report should be submitted within 6 months from the date of issue of the letter. With regard to noise mitigation the Committee suggested that adequate green belt should be provided with suitable trees. The green belt develdpment should be taken up in consultation with the local Forest Department.20 (vi) The budget and the action plan for items (j) to (v) shall be indicated, ite visit to Ennore Port Limited, Chennai ‘The Committee visited Ennore Port Limited (EPL) site on 29.12.2007.
