Geo Technical investigation was done at the site to understand the physical properties of the
sub soil strata as well as to identify the level of ground water table. Representative soil samples
were collected from 10 Nos of Bore holes drilled at regular intervals at the site. The boreholes
were of 150 mm diameter and were terminated at a depth of 20 m below the ground level. Upon
analysis of the soil samples collected, it was observed that the topsoil consists of clay up to a
depth of about 0.4 to 1.3 m. From 1.3 to 3.2 m depth, residual soil was presented and finally
from 3.2 to 20 m, rock strata of highly weathered rock and completely weathered rock was
encountered. Ground water table was encountered at 3.0 to 4.1 m depth, from the top of the
borehole at the time of investigation.

Traffic assessment of the road abutting the project site was carried out to estimate the peak
traffic load. The existing traffic load during the morning and evening peak hours were studied
and the vehicle counts were categorized under different heads. The different categories of
vehicular load were converted to PCU equivalents by applying the respective “M” factors. The
peak traffic load in terms of PCUs was arrived and the incremental traffic due to the project
was worked out. This projected traffic load (incremental) was compared with the standard
carrying capacity of the existing road. It was observed that the ratio between Volume and
Capacity (V/C ratio) was well within the limits. Hence it is clear that the impact of the traffic
due to the proposed project is insignificant.
The detail of the traffic assessment is presented below,

while brought to operation. The required power will be sourced from the nearby TNEB grid
which will be distributed through the transformers within our premises.
a. Transformers
Existing : 1600 kVA x 2 Nos
Proposed : 2000 kVA x 1 No
b. DG Sets
Existing : 750 kVA DG set x 2 Nos
Proposed : 1010 kVA DG Set x 2 Nos
The main source of air emissions from the hospital is the DG sets of capacity 750 kVA x 2 Nos
and 1010 kVA x 2 Nos. To mitigate the air emissions from these D.G sets, adequate stack
height is provided such the exhaust flue gases from the stack is released into the atmosphere at
a height at which efficient dispersion takes place. These DG sets are operated only during
TNEB power failure, hence the emission from them is only intermittent. Due to this the impact
from these emissions are insignificant. Photographs of the stack installed in 750 kVA DG Sets
is enclosed as Annexure XVIII.
Stack Height Design Calculation for 1010 kVA Generator Set (As per CPCB guide lines)

This chapter presents the assessment of various impacts due to the proposed construction
project in the study area. Generally, the environmental impacts can be categorized as either
primary or secondary. Primary impacts are those, which are attributed directly by the project
and secondary impacts are those, which are indirectly induced and typically include the
changed patterns of social and economic activities by the proposed project.
The proposed construction project would create impact on the environment in two distinct
phases
• During the construction phase (Temporary or short term)
• During operational phase (Long term)
The construction & operational phase of the proposed construction project comprises of various
activities each of which will have impact on some or other environmental parameters. Various
impacts during the construction/operational phase and their indicative environmental
parameters have been studied to estimate the impacts on environment. The identification and
details of impacts of project activity on each of the above environmental attributes are discussed
as follows:
