4.0 Environment Management

Environmental Pollution Control Measures
As per the EMS, Environmental Control Measures (ECM) means Environmental

Operational Control Procedures (EOCPs) shall be established and maintained to cover
situations where their absence could lead to deviations from the Environmental Policy and
developed objectives and targets.
EOCPs maintains the baseline of Environmental performance within the organization as
opposed to objectives and targets that improves the Environmental performance. It is
easy to understand that without operational control there could be a chance that
organization improves through objectives and targets in some areas and deteriorates in
other areas. Environmental control measures are required to prevent this deterioration in
environmental performance and maintain a baseline from where continual improvement
in Environmental performance can be planned through objectives and targets. Vibration
and Ecological monitoring is not applicable in our scope.
Air Pollution, Prevention & Control Measures
This plan establishes procedures to monitor impact on Air quality and measures to control
Air pollution including dust suppression due to construction activities at work sites. This
plan contains description of activities that causes degradation in air quality,
Environmental procedures to manage pollutants, monitoring program, and record
keeping and reporting.
Ambient Air Quality Monitoring shall be undertaken for PM10, PM2.5, CO, SO2 and NOx are
according to different parts of BIS: 5182 and for PM2.5 CPCB Guidelines as required under
the contract. Other Parameters as per National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS),
2009.

4.0.1 Potential Sources of SPM & RSPM
i) Dust generation at site due to operations like excavation, grading, clearing of land,
back filling, cement & fly ash handling, storage and disposal of construction waste
ii) Emissions of cement and fly ash from Batching Plant
iii) Diesel-Generator (DG) Sets
iv) Emission from Vehicle & Equipment’s
i) Prevention & Control of Dust Generation at Site
Dust would be generated at site due to various activities like; vehicle movement, transfer
of material, etc. Excavated materials will be dumped / placed in a manner that will
minimize dust production. Watering will be done if required for dust suppression and
stabilize materials. The height from which materials are dropped will be kept to minimum
limit fugitive dust emission. Stockpiling if required will be done with suitable slopes. The
vehicles carrying sand on the road will be tightened properly with tarpaulin sheets and
loaded with sufficient free-board so that dust particles could not escape out of the
carrying vehicles. Wash pit or wheel washing, high pressure water jets and/or vehicle
cleaning facility shall be provided for vehicles which exits from sites. Project site boundary
shall be barricaded with sheet of 15 ft. height. Waste storage area shall be covered to
prevent dust emission from site.
Sprinkling/Irrigation: Sprinkling the ground surface with water until it is moist is an

effective dust control method for haul roads and other traffic routes. In areas where
evaporation rates are high, water application to exposed soils may require near constant
attention, i.e., periodic sprinkling is required. If water is applied in excess, sprinkling may
create unwanted excess runoff from the site and possibly create conditions where
vehicles could track mud onto public roads.
Vegetative Cover: In areas not expected to handle vehicle traffic, vegetative stabilization
of disturbed soil is recommended as per applicability.

Windbreaks: Windbreaks are barriers (either Natural or constructed) that reduce wind
velocity through a site and therefore reduce the possibility of suspension of suspended
particles. Windbreaks can be trees or shrubs left in place during site clearing or
constructed barriers such as a wind fence, tarp curtain, hay bale, crate wall, or sediment
wall. Windbreaks are effective for reducing the dust from the stockpiles, plants and
machineries (conveyors). Windbreaks shall be provided at the downwind direction of
sufficient height based on the wind speed, wherever feasible.
ii) Prevention & Control of emission by Diesel Generator (DG) Sets
• Adequate stack height with sampling port hole shall be installed with DG sets at site
as per following equations and as per height if mentioned in the consent under Air
act.
• Adequate stack height for the stationed plant and equipment’s (other than Diesel
Generators) shall be provided for the exhaust emissions.
iii) Prevention & Control of Dust Generation by Vehicle & Equipment
• Air emissions from vehicles & equipment to be operational at site should be

prevented & controlled through periodic maintenance & servicing.
• All vehicles moving in the construction site shall restrict to defined speed limit.
• Dust / Mud and any deposition of material on public place shall be cleaned by
prompt sweeping.
• Wheel washing facility shall be provided for washing the wheels of vehicles before
going out of Site area.

• Pollution under Control (PUC) shall be carried out at least once in six month. Its
certificate record shall be maintained.
• All vehicles, equipment and machineries used for the construction shall comply with
current rules and regulations protecting the environment.
• Temporary storage of excavated top soil, if needed, shall be done within barricaded
portion and will be disposed of at authorized place.
• Adequate care will be taken so as to prevent any fall out of materials from vehicle
and create nuisance. If by chance any fall out occur, it will be immediately cleaned
and washed.
4.0.2 Air Quality Monitoring
Ambient Air Quality shall be monitored as per contract requirements to assess the
pollution level during construction phase. The location, duration and frequency will be as
given in table below. Location and frequency will be vary according to work.

Total Period of Monitoring During Civil construction
Additional requirement Ad hoc monitoring as required
Air quality from every monitoring shall be compared and every effort shall be made to
minimize the impact of construction activity on the quality of Air. Temporary effects shall
be controlled by measures described above.
Mitigation Measures
Transport of material from one place to another creates air pollution, which degrades the
Atmosphere of the area. To minimize pollution precaution are taken to minimize visible
particulate matter from being deposited upon roadways. It includes removal of

particulate matter from equipment and cleaning of dust / mud and deposit of material on
public place by routine sweeping work.
Control requirement at road construction site:

The dumping material shall be placed in a manner that will minimize dust production.
Material shall be stabilized by watering or other accepted dust suppression techniques.
The height from which material dropped shall be the minimum practical height to limit
the fugitive dust emission. Stock piled, sand and aggregates used in concrete
manufacturing and construction work should be piled with suitable slopes and if required
it will be enclosed on three sides with suitable barricading. Cement will be stored
separately in cement go-down. Water sprinklers shall be provided as required to control
and suppress dust during handling of excavation, debris and or during demolition. During
dry weather, dust control methods shall be used daily especially on windy, dry days to
prevent any dust from blowing.
Monitoring of PM:
The impacts of fugitive dust as ambient Air pollution depends on quantity generated as
well as drift potential of dust particles injected into Atmosphere. Larger particles will settle
down but smaller particles will drift away. PM levels will be monitored to check dust
impact during construction phase.
Methodology:
The samples will be collected with the help of High Volume Air Sampler using standard
methods on pre weighted GFA filter paper at a rate of 1:1 m3/minute for 24 hours and PM
will be monitored by suitable placement of High Volume Air Sampler at various locations
at the site. Air monitoring shall be carried out monthly at each location.

Presentation and Interpretation of results:
The results will be reported on the basis of 24 hours and will be presented as µg/m3. These
results will be compared with National Ambient Air Quality standards. The results will be
recorded and mitigation measures will be taken for control of air pollution.

wastewater
Identify the options for the possible reuse of treated

wastewater such as sprinkling, horticulture etc.
Discharge of unused wastewater and sludge as per the

applicable legislative norms
Water Requirement and Sources

During the construction phase, water will be required for civil works, workforce at site
office and workforce at campsite. The water will be sourced from the river along the
project. road section well water will be use for without affecting the local supply.
The total water required for the project is 561 Kl/day.
Treated effluent from sedimentation tank shall be reused in spraying. The entire
wastewater generated from the project site (sites) shall be effectively collected before the
treatment. During the collection process, efforts have to be made toprevent any leakage
or overflow. Temporary Drainage system shall be provided. Wastewater shall be
preferably collected in the covered lined drains.
As far as possible the project site shall have minimum treatment systems. This means that
wastewater generated from the different sources shall be collected together (through
drain network or mobile tanker network) and treated at a common place. The treated
wastewater for discharge of environmental pollutants shall meet the minimum
requirements specified by the concerned statutory authority depending on the type of
discharge such as inland surface water, public sewers, barren land etc. Wastewater
treatment system shall be Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD). We will submit Waste
management plan for all other types of wastes.
4.1.1 Source of Waste Water

Wastewater generated from different sources at the project site and related activities
are listed below:
i) Wastewater generated from sewage
ii) Wastewater generated from canteen / mess
iii) Storm water discharge
i) Management of waste water due to Operations of Batching Plant

Batching plant wastewater arises from
1. Washing out transit mixer drums at the end of the each working day to prevent fresh
concrete residue from setting in the drum overnight. Additional wastewater
generated from washing down the yard and drum.
2. Occasionally unwanted fresh concrete is returned to the batching plant from site.
The wet waste consists mainly of water, with a variable proportion of coarse and fine
aggregates, cementitious powders and chemical admixtures.
It is easy to prevent the pollution at the source rather than treating the same. A
sedimentation tank shall be constructed of adequate quantity where wash water from
transit mixer drum will be stored and filtered by sedimentation process. Sedimentation is
a physical water treatment process using gravity to remove suspended solids from water.
The sedimentation tank shall have two chambers to utilize the sedimentation process to
the optimum. The sedimentation tank shall have a screen (weld mesh) to retain the coarse
materials at the entrance of first chamber. There shall be final collection tank after two
sedimentation tank. Treated water shall be used in water sprinkling.
ii) Management of wastewater due to curing / Site
The following measures are to be adopted to reduce the wastewater generation from the
concrete curing / Site.
Water Curing
• As far as possible the rough calculation shall be made to understand the quantity of
curing water required in a day for any type of concrete structure curing, considering
the necessary losses (runoff, evaporation etc.). This will help in optimizing the water
consumption.
• Utilize wet blankets / Hessian cloth or a similar method that maintains moisture while
minimizing the use and possible discharge of water.
• Direct cure water runoff shall be away from water bodies (surface and ground water).
• Water runoff or over flow water from curing yards shall be collected in a collection
tank of adequate capacity through lined open or closed drains.
• The runoff before entering the collection tank shall have a screen (weld mesh) to
retain the coarse materials.
• A closed loop system shall be followed to reuse the collected curing water. Fresh water
shall be added only for loss.
• At every three days interval, the complete collected curing water (from the tanks) shall
be used for sprinkling purpose.
iii) Management of wastewater from sewage
Facilities for collection and disposal of sanitary waste shall be provided and properly
managed to minimize the potential contamination of sewage to the ground water, surface
water and land. Portable toilets shall also be used in addition to the stationed toilet.
The following criteria shall be considered in providing portable toilets.
• Portable toilets shall be provided on the site in close proximity to areas where people
are working for the whole day continuously for a month.
• Location of portable facilities (urinal, washbasin and toilets) shall be away from storm
drain systems (minimum of six meters) and surface waters to avoid spillage.
• Portable toilets will be provided if no permanent facilities are available.
• Portable toilets shall be regularly cleaned and all the sewage shall be pumped from
the collection tank periodically and shall be brought to the common soak pit and septic
tank for further treatment.
iv) Management of Wastewater generated from canteen/mess
Wastewater from canteen/mess is generated from washing utensils, floor washing and
washbasins. The following measures shall be adopted to reduce the wastewater
generation and the pollution load:
• All the leftover food particles in the plates and cooking utensils should be collected in
separate bins. In no case food particles shall be allowed to go in to the drain.
• Food grains shall be washed in a separate container and not directly in the sink to
prevent the spillage.
• Left out cooked oil shall be collected separately and disposed off to the approved
recycler. At no cases, it shall be disposed in the drains.
• Two stages of washing dishes shall be followed for washing larger number of utensils.
In the first stage the sink shall be filled with soapy water and all the dishes shall be
washed. In the second stage the sink shall be filled with fresh water and all the pre-
washed dishes (with soapy foam) shall be washed with the fresh water.
• Water conservation taps available in local market shall be fitted in dishwashing sink
and washbasin.
v) Management of wastewater from storm water discharge

There shall be a proper drainage system for storm water runoff to prevent the water
inundation in all working areas. Working areas includes Site, plant and machineryareas,
storage areas etc. The following management practices shall help in preventing the
pollution entering the storm water drain.
• Keeping pollutants off exposed surfaces: Placing waste baskets around the site
and cleaning it often.
• Cover and maintain dumpsters: Checking frequently for leaks. Placing dumpsters
under a roof or cover with tarpaulin or plastic sheeting. Never cleaning a
dumpster byhosing it down on site.
• Keeping materials out of the rain: Covering exposed piles of soil or construction
materials with plastic sheeting or temporary roofs.
• Portable toilets in good working condition (if any): Checking frequently for leaks
and service regularly.
• Optimum consumption of water for dust control.
Periodic cleaning of storm water drains shall be carried out especially before and after the
monsoons. Cleaning up leaks, drips, and other spills in the land shall be carried out
immediately. This will prevent contaminated soil or residue on paved surface. Never
hosing down “dirty” pavement or surfaces where materials have spilled.

4.1.2 Water Quality Monitoring

As far as possible, to the greatest extent the wastewater shall be treated and used for the
internal purpose to zero liquid discharge. Usage of recycled and reused water by various
utilities (such as canteen water, curing yard water, gardening, etc.) shall also be
monitored.
Drinking water quality shall be checked half yearly as per Drinking water quality standards
IS: 10500, 2012.

* Day time shall mean from 06.00 A.M. to 09.00 P.M.
* Night time shall mean from 09.00 P.M. to 06.00 A.M.
* Silence zone is an area comprising not less than 100 meters around hospitals,
educational institutions, courts, religious places or any other area which is declared as
such by the competent authority.
• Noise limit for DG sets (up to 1000 KVA manufactured on or after 1st Jan 2005)
shouldnot exceed 75 dB (A).
4.3.2 General Requirements

• All the plant and equipment to be used on the site shall be properly maintained
in good operating condition and noisy construction activities shall be effectively
sound- reduced by means of silencers, mufflers, acoustic linings or shields,
acoustic sheds or screens or other means, to avoid disturbance to any nearby
noise sensitive receivers and shall be used only in case of power failure/
emergency.
• All the noise hazard areas (noise level exceeding 75 dB) shall be provided with
warningsigns.
• All the personnel’s working in the noise hazard areas shall be provided with
personal hearing protectors.
• Adequate information shall be provided to all the employees working in the
noise hazard areas

• Scheduling noisy activities takes place when the minimum numbers of other
nearby workers are present (but noise out of hours needs to be carefully planned
to avoid neighborhood annoyance).
• Rotation of workers to minimize exposure times.
• Machinery used for construction will be of high standard of reputed make and
will adhere to international standards. These standards itself take care of noise
pollution control/ vibration control and air emission control. Lubrication shall be
carried out periodically of machinery. Use of well-maintained construction
equipment and vehicles used for transportation.
4.3.3 Noise Control Measures
Prevention of the Noise at the Source
All noise-emitting objects generate air borne energy (noise) and structure borne energy
(vibrations). Some of the engineering control measures, which can be taken at the site
level are:
• All vibration shall be prevented by taking suitable control measures such as by;
o Replacing rivet with welds,
o Avoid metal to metal contact by using plastic bumpers,
o Providing vibration isolation mountings
o Lagging (covering or insulating) dampen vibrating surfaces
o Absorbing shock with wear resistant rubber or plastic coatings
• Noise shall be prevented at the source by adopting following measures;
o Provision of mufflers or silencers
o Provision of noise barriers and noise enclosures at the source of
noisegeneration.
Modification of the Noise at the Transmission Path

Modifying the noise transmission path is seen as the second line of defense and includes
the following methods:
• Increasing the distance between source and receiver.
• Enclosing noisy sources by full enclosures, partial enclosures and barriers and shields.
• Separating noisy and quiet areas by partitions.
Administrative Noise Control Measures

Where it is not practicable to comply with the exposure standard for noise solely through
other control measures, administration control measures are used. These measures
reduce the noise to which a person is exposed by means of working arrangements,
includes;
• Organizing schedules so that noisy work is done when, as few people as
possible arepresent.
• Notifying people in advance when noisy work is to be carried out, so they can
limittheir exposure to it.
• Keeping people out of noisy area, if their job does not require them to be there.
• Sign posting noisy areas
• Periodic rotation of persons working in excessive noisy area shall be carried out.
Personal Hearing Protectors
Personal hearing protectors shall be used only as an interim measure while control of
excessive noise is being achieved by engineering control measures. The removal of
personal hearing protectors for even short periods of time can significantly reduce their
effectiveness and result in inadequate protection. Due to the difficulties of wearing
personal hearing protectors for long periods of time in certain environments, regular
brief periods in quiet areas, without personal hearing protectors, should be allowed.
Noise Monitoring
Noise monitoring shall be carried out twice a month with 6 estimated locations and spot
noise also be check on monthly basis at 1 m, 3 m & 5 m distances.
4.5 Soil Pollution, Prevention & Control Measures

Following mitigation measures shall be taken for soil pollution prevention:

construction.
• Use less energy consumption LED lights, Air conditioners, etc.
• Use energy efficient motors and pumps,
• Provide proper illuminating and ventilated place for working area as well as at
construction site also.
• Proper transparent window which can work as a light in day time.
• We shall use Solar light with refractive tapes on barricade boards.

ii. Keep non-involved people away from spill site.
iii. Eliminate all source of ignition.

If spill is large:
i. Prevent spill entering into sewers by dike the area with sand bags.
ii. Spread absorbents over the source of spill.
4.8 Tree Protection, Tree cutting and reinstatement management
i. Tree protection plan:

1. Tree cutting shall be limited to absolute minimum numbers.
2. Tree cutting shall be carried out only after obtaining proper permission.
3. Tree cutting should be avoid if there is chances to change the drawing.
4. Use trimming of plantation for essential activity at work area.
5. Awareness training among the workmen and staff on Tree protection.
6. Ensure pesticide spray to protect tree from fungal infection.
7. Adequate inspection on regular basis by concern authority.
8. Adequate water arrangement for tree irrigation.
9. Fencing and trenching should be done around the tree to protect tree from wild animals.
10. Adequate wind protection must be ensured.
ii. Tree cutting plan: With a view to minimize environmental disturbance due to tree
cutting following measures shall be adopted:
11. Tree cutting shall be carried out only after obtaining proper permission.
12. Prepare action plan for cutting of tree at project stretch.
13. First cut those trees which are bend and damaged.
14. Intimate forest department before cutting trees.
15. Ensure only Certified agency must be hired for tree cutting.
16. Awareness training among the workmen and staff on Tree cutting.
17. Ensure 100% fencing around the tree cutting areas.
18. Adequate stacking arrangement for trimmed branches.

iii. Tree Reinstatement/ Compensatory planning:

Trees are essential for earth. They create the air we breathe and filter air pollution. Trees
also build soil and soak up storm-water before it can create a flood, and they offer energy-
saving shade that reduces global warming and creates habitat for thousands of different
species. Trees also help to reduce ozone levels in urban areas. Most importantly, trees
sequester carbon, helping to remove carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases from
the air, which cools the earth. In fact, a mature canopy tree absorbs enough carbon and
releases enough oxygen to sustain two human beings. The carbon storage capacity of
forests is approximately three times as large as the pool of 2 carbon in the atmosphere.
If forests are changed, reduced, or eliminated, the captured carbon goes into the
atmosphere as Carbon Dioxide (CO2). Trees are barrier to Noise also. So tree saving is
most important. Compensatory plantation is being taken up as per concerned Forest
authority/ Municipal authority.
4.8 Traffic diversion
The basic objective of the Traffic Diversion plan is to lay down procedures to be adopted by

Monitoring and measurement
Monitoring is required to gauge whether the system is performing in-line with the referred
procedures / plans / guidelines / relevant documents. EMP will help in tracking the project-
wide key environmental characteristics as well as those related to particular Environmental
Control Measures (ECM), Objective & Targets and legal compliance.
Monitoring and Measurement is carried out for (i) tracking of project-wide Environmental
parameters with respect to ambient air, water & effluent, noise, (ii) tracking of resource
consumption such as water, energy, raw materials, (iii) tracking of Environmental control
measures such as operation of treatment plants, (iv) monitoring progress of objectives and
targets, (v) calibration of Environmental data measuring devices and (vi) monitoring legal
compliance.
The above monitoring is generally undertaken through a combination of centralized and

decentralized responsibilities keeping in view the way of the project is structured. There is no
specific requirement on the frequency of monitoring and this is decided on a case-to-case
basis based on the issue or parameter to be monitored. Monitoring and measurement
enables the project to;
• Evaluate Environmental performance

• Analyze root causes of problems
• Assess compliance with legal or contractual requirements
• Identify areas requiring corrective action
• Improve performance and increase efficiency (or) productivity.
Environmental Monitoring
• A third party Environmental Monitoring shall be carried out on every 6 months. The
frequency shall be revised as per contractual requirement and requirement as mentioned
by statutory Government body like mentioned in consent.

• The monitored data shall be evaluated with legal requirements (e.g. As per The
Environment (Protection) Rule), as per requirement of consent, contractual requirement.
• The third party shall be approved by PCB and/ or MOEF.
