EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Project Description:
Petrochemicals are used to create most of the everyday items we use. From vehicles
to a variety of electronics, almost all of the things we use today are powered by or
made of petrochemicals. Increasing product demands have led to the creation of more
refineries and plants and thus the creation of more jobs. In reality, the petrochemical
industry is one of the most beneficial things in our lives. They’re responsible for creating
many of the items we use every day.
Water Environment –
Construction Phase Impacts (Significance: Water consumption – Low, Effluent
generation - Low)
27
Raw water required for construction & drinking purpose will be sourced from existing
refinery sources. Generation of sanitary sewage.
Mitigation Measures
During construction phase, used construction water is the only effluent generated due
to construction activities and most of the effluent generated will be so small that it
will either get percolated to ground or get evaporated.
Monitoring water usage at construction camps to prevent wastage. The Sewage
Treatment Plant (STP) at construction camps/ sites and the proposed facilities are
properly designed to handle peak waste water load and properly maintained. Supply
of temporary/ portable toilets for construction staff.
Operation Phase Impacts (Significance: Water consumption – Low, Effluent
generation - Low)
. Installation of rainwater harvesting structures to collect and use rainwater, thereby
reducing abstraction.
Noise Environment –
Construction Phase Impacts (Significance - Low) Noise generation due to operation
of heavy equipment and machinery, operation of DG sets and movement of heavy
vehicles.
Mitigation Measures
Preventive maintenance of equipment and vehicles Unnecessary engine operations to
be minimized(e.g. equipment with intermitted use switched off when not working)
DG sets to be provided with acoustic enclosures and exhaust mufflers
Operation Phase Impacts (Significance - Medium)
Noise generation due to operation of pumps & compressors etc.
Mitigation Measures
Avoiding continuous (more than 8 hrs) exposure of workers to high noise areas.
Provision of ear muffs at the high noise areas. Ensuring preventive maintenance of
equipment. Land Environment –
Construction Phase Impacts (Significance: Land-use & topography – Low, Soil
quality - Low)
There is a potential for impact on soil quality due to spills, leaks of fuel and disposal
of construction waste materials.
Mitigation Measures
Restricting all construction activities to the maximum possible extent inside the
project boundary.
The top soil stock pile is not contaminated with any type of spills.
Any material resulting from clearing and grading should not be deposited on
approach roads, streams or ditches, which may hinder the passage and/or natural
water drainage.
28
Restoration of construction camp sites before abandonment.
After final site grading is complete, ensuring that the excess excavated material is not
dumped indiscriminately but used for filling low lying areas construction by locals.
Developing project specific waste management plan Developing and maintaining
dedicated waste storage areas Operation Phase Impacts (Significance: Soil Quality -
Low ) There is a potential for impact on soil quality due to handling and storage of
hazardous waste and chemicals (e.g. waste oil, oil contaminated filters).
Mitigation Measures
Developing and maintaining dedicated waste storage areas. Disposing hazardous
wastes to authorized vendors as per legal requirements.
Biological Environment –
Construction Phase Impacts (Significance –Medium)
Road kills of animals due to movement of project-related vehicles. Obstruction of
natural pathways and water holes of animals.
Cutting of trees for clearing site for project development and firewood requirements
by construction workers.
Mitigation Measures
Avoid cutting of tress wherever possible, especially the endangered species observed
in the study area. Exploring opportunities for conservation of endangered species.
Closing of trenches as soon as possible of construction.
Prevent littering of work sites with wastes, especially plastic and hazardous waste, if
any.
Operation Phase Impacts (Significance – low) Road kills of animals due to
movement of project-related vehicles.
Mitigation Measures
Maintain the greenbelt already developed Plant additional trees during operation
phase
Socio-Economic Environment –
Construction Phase Impacts (Significance –Low) Disturbance and road safety
issues to local community due to movement of project-related vehicles and heavy
machineries.
Sharing of local resources and infrastructure by the migrant workforce IX Disputes
between locals and migrant workforce affecting societal harmony.
Local employment and business generation (positive impact).
Mitigation Measures Training contractors on company safety policy requirements
and monitoring speed and route of project-related vehicles within the project area.
Determining the safe, legal load limits of all bridges and roads that will be used by
29
heavy vehicles and machinery. Upgrading local roads, wherever required, to ensure
ease of project activity and community safety Consolidating deliveries of materials
and personnel to project sites, whenever feasible, to minimize flow of traffic
Minimizing interruption of access to community use of public infrastructure
Providing prior notice to affected parties when their access will be blocked, even
temporarily.
Monitoring construction camp safety and hygiene
Preventing use of drugs and alcohol in project-sites Preventing possession of firearms
by project-personnel, except those responsible for security Project-related waste and
wastewater is disposed in a responsible manner
Operation Phase Impacts (Significance –Low) Additional load on traffic due to
transport of both personnel and material. Employment Generation of around 180
people during operational phase.
Mitigation Measures
Extending reach of CSR programs to new project areas. Monitoring speed and route
of project-related vehicles within the project area
Project Benefits
No local production source except for Oxo alcohol.
The identified products are predominantly imported into India.
Strong demand: Huge potential in India has been established through an independent
market survey. Additionally, availability of local source of feedstock is expected to
provide tremendous opportunity for growth in downstream industries, which is
expected to further boost the employment potential. Generate direct / indirect
employment and better economic status of the community due to better earnings.
