Read: 1. G.O.No.CI 167 SPI 2001, Bangalore dtd: 30.06.2001 2. G.O.No.CI 319 SPI 2005, Bangalore dtd: 26.08.2006 *** Preamble : Karnataka is one of the Industrially forward States of India. The State has a host of large industries ably supported by a strong base of Micro, Small and Medium Sectors. Due to inherent advantages of the State, the industry and trade sectors including service sector are propelling the overall economic development of Karnataka. Today, Karnataka is one amongst the industrially developed States in the Country. The State has all potential to stand out on the fore front and has been focusing on development of industries, trade & service sector in Karnataka. Due to the progressive policies and proactive measures of the Government and also the contribution of entrepreneurial fraternity and investors, today Karnataka has been recognized as one of the preferred destinations for both investment and to live in. This fact is evident from the statistics that, during the years 2006-07 and 2007-08 the State High Level Clearance Committee has approved 173 projects with aggregated investment of Rs.2,50,779 crores which will provide employment opportunities for about 28 lakh persons upon implementation. Further, the State Level Single Window Clearance Committee has cleared 1609 projects with investment potential of Rs.22,234 crores and employment opportunities for about 10.72 lakh persons. The State Government enunciated its New Industrial Policy 2006-11 vide G.O.No. CI 319 SPI 2005, Bangalore dated 26.08.2006. This policy laid emphasis on development of infrastructure and human resource in addition to other measures. This policy had its own impact in accelerating the pace of development of industries & trade. The Gross State Domestic Product (GSDP) of Karnataka has registered a growth of 6.9% during 2007-08 against 6.2% during the previous year. The share of industry in GSDP has also increased to 16.65% during 2007-08, when compared to 16.51% during 2006-07. 2 Today, SME sector does get special attention and support all over the World, even in the developed countries. Realizing this fact, the Central Govt. enacted Micro, Small & Medium Enterprises Development Act, 2006 facilitating the growth of MSME sector in the Country. In line with the philosophy of the MSMED Act, it is imminent for the State to focus more on MSME sector. This Act provides a clear status for enterprises engaged in service activities and a clear cut definitions for medium scale enterprises. It is felt that, these features need to be suitably incorporated in the current industrial policy of the State to provide better edge to the MSME sector of the State. The Government is committed for implementation of Suvarna Karnataka Development Corridor Programme throughout the length & breadth of the State. This corridor will give added fillip the overall development of the districts covered under the programme. In complement to this corridor four major industrial corridor with 8 lane roads will also be developed. To harness the local natural and human resources sector specific zones will also be established across the State. Further, the State is endowed with rich natural resources across the State and such resources need to be optimally utilized for the benefit of local people. Value addition to the resources is one of the way for optimizing the wealth available locally. This will also help for uniform spread of industries and economic activities throughout the State and will accelerate the pace of development especially the districts of North Karnataka. Through these measures, the Government would be able to readdress the much talked about issue of regional imbalances in development. The State also felt the urgency of providing stimulus measures for industries and service sector to combat the ill effects of the financial crisis prevailing globally. The state is committed to initiate certain measures to provide temporary relief to the industry & service sector to overcome the present situation. Keeping all these facts in view, the State Govt. felt the necessity of bringing out a New Industrial Policy for this period of next five years. The main objectives of this exercise is to make the policy more attractive to the entrepreneurs as well as investors irrespective of the size of investment. 3 The policy has been drafted through extensive consultation process with industry associations, trade bodies, related Govt. departments and organizations & other stakeholders. The Policy has also been discussed in the Vision Group constituted by the Government. The views and suggestions offered by all these stakeholders have been incorporated suitably in the policy with the objective of making this policy most industry friendly. In light of the above, a decision has been taken by the Govt. to formulate and adopt a New Industrial Policy for the period 2009-14.

The State has all potential to stand out on the fore front and has been focusing on development of industries, trade and service sectors. The State Government understands that the challenges poised due to global economic recession have to be addressed to promote economic growth of the State. A stimulus to boost economic activities needs to be given to sustain the current pace of over all development. Further, the State is endowed with rich natural resources across the State and such resources need to be optimally utilized for the benefit of local people. Value addition to resources is one of the ways of optimizing the wealth available locally. This will also help ensure uniform spread of industries and economic activities throughout the State and will accelerate the pace of development especially in the districts of North Karnataka. Through these measures, the Government would be able to readdress the serious issue of regional imbalances in development. The State Government realizes the limitation of agriculture sector to generate large scale employment to the local youths. About 56% of the State’s workforce is estimated to contribute 19.13% of the GSDP. It is the agreed fact that, the manufacturing sector has high potential to create maximum employment that too, to all sections and levels of job aspirants. 2 In order to provide enabling environment for investors, the State government has already enacted Karnataka Industries (Facilitation) Act, 2002. Due to the progressive measures and pro-active mind set of the Government, today, Karnataka has been recognized as one of the preferred investment destinations both for domestic and overseas investors. The State Government has introduced Industrial Policy 2006-11 with an aim to increase the growth of GDP, strengthen manufacturing industries, increase share of exports from Karnataka, to generate additional employment of atleast 10 lakh persons in the manufacturing and service sectors, reduce regional imbalance and ultimately aim at overall socioeconomic development of the State. In the meantime, the Government of India enacted Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Development Act, 2006 and requested all the States to provide required support and encouragement to make MSMEs more competitive. In order to make the State more attractive and investor friendly, there was a need to focus more on inclusive industrial development, comprehensive HRD programmes, special attention towards development of sector specific zones, classification of taluks according to Dr. D M Nanjundappa Committee Report, attractive package of incentives and concessions, encouragement for existing industries to take up expansion, modernization and diversification etc. The State also understands the need to provide stimulus measures for industries to combat the prevailing financial crisis. Keeping these points in view, the State intends to formulate a new Industrial Policy with a determination to provide level playing field to all investors. This policy is framed with the broad guiding principles of creation of employment, development of backward regions and value addition to local resources. 3 2 Vision To build prosperous Karnataka through development of human and natural resources in a systematic, scientific and sustainable manner. 3 4 Mission 3.1 To create enabling environment for robust industrial growth. 3.2 To ensure inclusive industrial development in the State. 3.3 To provide additional employment for about 10 lakh persons by 2014. 3.4 To enhance the contribution of manufacturing sector to the State’s GDP from the current level of 17% to 20% by the end of policy period. Strategies 4.1 Classification of the taluks of the State into four zones depending on backwardness of the taluks and also based on broad guidelines of Dr. D M Nanjundappa Committee Report. 4.2 Thrust on provision of world-class infrastructural facilities for industries with active participation of private sector/ industry. 4.3 Implementation of Suvarna Karnataka Development Corridor Programme (SKDCP) through length & breadth of the State and develop industries at the potential locations along with corridor. 4.4 Development of four 8 lane industrial corridors under SKDCP. 4.5 Development of sector-wise industrial zones for optimal utilization of local natural and human resources so as to minimize migration of people to urban centers. 4 4.6 Simplification of land acquisition procedures with emphasis on inclusive development. 4.7 Safeguarding the socio-economic interests of both farmers and investors while acquisition of land. 4.8 Preferential treatment for MSME sector enabling to meet the global challenges. 4.9 Attractive employment and performance linked package of incentives and concessions to attract investments to backward regions and also to provide a leverage to MSME sector. 4.10 Thrust on development of MSME Sector through attractive package of Incentives & Concessions. 4.11 Tailor made package of incentives to larger projects having wider positive implications on the State’s economy to leverage a better edge over other competing states. 4.12 Additional incentives for entrepreneurs belonging to underprivileged sections of the society to bring them to the main stream in order to achieve much needed inclusive growth. 4.13 Focus on skill development in order to enhance the employability of youth especially women and also to make ready-to-employ human resource to the industry. 4.14 Inculcate entrepreneurial qualities amongst local youth in general and women in particular and motivate them to take up self employment by extending handholding support. 5 4.15 Create level playing environment for all investors / private sector players by enhancing the facilitation mechanism enabling to do their business with ease and less transaction cost. 4.16 Appropriate provisions for the protection of environment and to encourage energy & water conservation measures in industry/ projects through go-green strategy. 5 Policy Measures: 5.1 Streamlining development land acquisition process through inclusive 5.1.1 Efforts will be made to identify and utilize government waste lands in different parts of the State for employment generating industrial activities. 5.1.2 Inventory of surplus and unused land available with PSUs, State Govt., ULBs and suitable private land will be made to create a Land Bank. This will enable the State to offer ready to use land to investors. 5.1.3 In order to speed up the process of land acquisition for the purpose of industries, a clear cut land acquisition policy will be evolved in consultation with farmers and industry. In this policy, necessary measures will be spelt out to ensure that only dry land and single crop land will be acquired for industrial purposes. Further, while issuing notification, lands wherein temples, crematoria, schools, playground and residential houses are located shall be excluded.

M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 6 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka. 8.6 Flora & Fauna Ecological survey was done to understand baseline ecological status, important floristic elements, fauna structure. Secondary data was collected from Forest Working Plan and Gazetteers. The study area is abundantly occupied by trees such as Tamarindus indica, Terminalia chebula, Eucalyptus sp, carisa carandus, Butea monosperma and terminalia tomentos. Near agriculture land, along village roads, state highways and major district roads, Eucalyptus species, Dalbergia sisso, Acacia auriculoformis are predominant. Primary survey revealed a total of 89 species of plants of which most were phanerophytes and 4 were therophytes. The common cereals/ millets in the study area are saccharum officinarum, oryza sativa, Triticum diococcum, Pennisitum glacaum, zia mays which are mainly depend on rainwater, tube well and borewells in non monsoon season. There is no national park, wildlife sanctuary, biosphere reserve within 10km of the study area. As per Wildlife Protection Act 1972, there is only one schedule-I species observed in buffer zone i.e. Monitor Lizard (Varanus bengalensis) which is placed under the least concern category (LC) by the IUCN. 8.7 Socio Economics Sample survey was done to collect qualitative information about the socio economic environment of the area. The Study area is mostly inhabited by economically weaker section people. Lack of amenities such as roads, drinking water, dwellings, lavatories, and education, employment, medical and electricity facilities was evident during the site visit. Though agriculture is the main occupation in the studied villages, it has provided employment opportunities to only 50-60% of the families. The remaining population is depending on the other type of employment opportunities mainly as laborers. 9 Anticipated Environmental Impacts and Mitigation Measures 9.1 Impact on Air Quality The Predicted maximum Ground level concentration of 24 Hour average of SO 2 and NOX concentrations are superimposed on the maximum baseline concentrations obtained during the study period to estimate the post project scenario, which would prevail at the post operational phase. The major type of fuel used for DG set & Boiler is HSD and the expected emission rates for SO2 is 0.0006 to 0.006 g/s and whereas the NOx emissions are in the range of 0.03 to 0.32g/s. M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 7 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka. The predicted incremental rise of SO2 is 0.2µg/m3 whereas for NOx the predicted value is 8.2 µg/m3. The overall post project scenario along with existing baseline concentrations of SO2 & NOx is found to be 18.3 µg/m3 and 30.4 µg/m3 respectively, against the NAAQ standards of 80 µg/m3. 9.1.1 Mitigation Measures Following mitigation measures will be adopted to limit the environmental impact during constructional phase: Regular water sprinkling to avoid dust materials entering into the atmosphere. Furthermore, frequency of the water sprinkling will be increased during windy days. Temporary thin sheets of sufficient height (3m) will be erected around the proposed site as a barrier for dust control. Excavated material shall be reused within the boundary to reduce the movement of cut and fill material. Plantation of 2 to 3 years old saplings around the proposed boundary will be initiated at early stages using drip irrigation so that the area will be moist for most part of the day. All the vehicles carrying raw materials will be covered with tarpaulin/plastic sheet; unloading and loading activity will be stopped during windy period. To reduce SO2 and NOX emissions from DG set & Boiler, sufficient stack height will be proposed to meet the MOEF guidelines. 9.2 Impact on water quality The total water requirement for the industrial area will be 4010 KLD. This will be met by reusing treated water to the tune of 1882 KLD with a fresh water intake of 2128 KLD. The main source of fresh water is Malaprabha River and Bore wells. Waste water generated from all the proposed units would be treated in a common effluent treatment plant. The expected waste water characteristics are pH 6.5 - 8.0; Oil & grease less than 10mg/l; TSS less than 50mg/; TDS 4000-4500 mg/l; COD 3000 to 3500mg/l. The industrial and domestic effluents would be collected through separate drains and treated in CETP & CSTP respectively. Treated water is used for greenbelt development to the maximum extent along with industrial floor washing and cooling purpose. 9.2.1 Storm Water Management Storm water drains would be provided to collect rain water all along the road network with adequate size to prevent flooding of the site.

The baseline data was collected for various environmental components to compute the impacts that are likely to be arising out of the industrial activities covering an area of 10km radially, from the proposed Development of Kittur Industrial Areaas the center. 3.2 Baseline Environmental Studies The main aim of the impact assessment study is to find out the impact of the project on the environment. This study is carried out during the project planning stage itself, so that the proponent can implement the project in a technically, financially and environmentally viable way. The success of any impact assessment study depends mainly on two factors. One is estimation of impact from proposed project on the environment and the second one is assessment of the environmental condition. Both are key factors to arrive at the post project scenario. The estimated impact due to the proposal can be superimposed over the existing conditions to arrive at the post project scenario. The scope of the baseline studies includes detailed characterization of following environmental components, which are most likely to be influenced by setting up an industry Meteorological conditions Ambient Air Quality Noise Levels Water Quality (Surface + Ground water). Soil Quality and Ecological studies Socio Economic studies Land utilization 3.2.1 Monitoring Period Meteorologicaldata was collected for the study area during the months of Postmonsoon (September, October and November (2013)). Wind Speed, Wind Direction, Temperature, and Relative Humidity were recorded on hourly basis during the study period. Secondary meteorological data has been collected from the nearest IMD station of Belgaum.

The area is not prone to subsidence, landslides, erosion, and flooding or adverse climatic conditions. 3.4 Meteorology Regional meteorological scenario helps to understand the trends of the climatic factors. It also helps in determining the sampling stations in predicting the post project environmental scenario. Meteorological Scenario exerts a critical influence on air quality as the pollution arises from the interaction of atmospheric contaminants with adverse meteorological conditions such as temperature inversions. Atmospheric stability and topographical features like hills, canyons and valleys. M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 3.2 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka The study of meteorological conditions forms an intrinsic part of the Environment Impact Assessment (EIA) Study. The meteorological conditions of an area and the industrial process are both intertwined and each has a definite influence over the other. Favorable weather conditions and the surroundings help the successful operation of an industry; while the industrial activity influences the weather in both positive as well as negative ways.Summary of the climatological data (IMD station Belgaum) is presented here under. 3.4.1 Climatic Conditions The climate in the study region is generally hot and humid and is characterized with seasonal variations as follows Winter Summer Monsoon Post Monsoon Dec to Feb March to May June to August Sep to Nov Project area falls under the hot temperate climate zone and hence it experiences very hot and dry condition. Summer season starts from March to May. Rainy season due to the South-West Monsoon is from June to end of August. The critical weather elements that influence air pollution are wind speed, wind direction, temperature, which together determines atmosphere stability. Hence it is an indispensable part of any air pollution studies and required for interpretation of baseline information. The details of the temperature, relative humidity and rainfall observed during study period are given in Table 3.2.

The dispersion/dilution of the released pollutant over a large area will result in considerable reduction of the concentration of a pollutant. The dispersion in turn depends on the weather conditions like the wind speed, direction, temperature, relative humidity, mixing height, cloud cover and also the rainfall in the area. Normally the impacts surrounding the project site are studied in detail. Wind speed and direction data recorded during the study period is useful in identifying the influence of meteorology on the air quality of the area. Based on the IMD meteorological data wind roses that is the diagrammatic representation of wind speed and wind direction along with their persistence for a fractional period of occurrence at a given location is constructed. Wind roses on sixteen sector basis have been drawn. Wind directions and wind speed frequency observed during study period (month wise) and for full season are given in Table 3.3 to Table 3.6 wind rose diagrams are given in Figure 3.1 to Figure 3.4. The winds were predominantly recorded from SW followed byW, NW, S and WSW during September.

It can be observed from the data that the project proposed area and the impact zone reflect a fairly clean environment with respect to the pollutants of concern. Spatial and temporal variations in the air quality occur as a result of the air basin and the prevailing meteorological conditions of the study area. To assess the existing sub regional air status during the one season, the above factors govern the status at all the Ambient Air Quality sampling stations. 3.5.1 Air Quality Scenario in the Study Area The existing concentration levels of Air pollutants of concern, as mentioned above, are presented in Table 3.8 to Table 3.10. Statistical parameters like minimum, maximum, arithmetic mean and 98th percentiles have been computed from the observed raw data for all sampling stations. The observed values were compared with the standards as prescribed by MOEF for Industrial, Residential and Rural zone. a) Particulate Matter <2.5µm&<10µm Particulate Matter (PM) is the term used for a mixture of solid particles and liquid droplets suspended in the air. These particles originate from a variety of sources, such as power plants, industrial processes, and diesel trucks, and they are formed in the atmosphere by transformation of gaseous emissions. Their chemical and physical compositions depend on location and time of year. Particulate matter is composed of both coarse and fine particles. Coarse particles (PM10) have an aerodynamic diameter between 2.5µm and 10µm. They are formed by mechanical disruption (e.g. crushing, grinding, and abrasion of surfaces) evaporation of sprays, and suspension of dust. PM10 is composed of alumina silicate and other oxides of crustal elements, and major sources including fugitive dust from roads, industry, agriculture, construction and demolition, and fly ash from fossil fuel combustion. The lifetime of PM10 is from minutes to hours, and its travel distance varies from <1km to 10km. Fine particles have an aerodynamic diameter less than 2.5µm (PM2.5). They differ from PM10 in origin and chemistry. These particles are formed from gas and condensation of high temperature vapors during combustion, and they are composed of various combinations of Sulfate compounds, Nitrate compounds, Carbon compounds, Ammonium, Hydrogen ion, organic compounds, metals (Pb, Cd, V, Ni, Cu, Zn, Mn and Fe), and Particle bound water. The major sources of PM 2.5 are fossil fuel combustion, M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 3.15 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka vegetation burning, and the smelting and processing of metals. Their lifetime is from days to weeks and travel distance ranges from hundreds to thousands of km. The 98th percentile of Particulate Matter <10µm recorded within the study area were in the range of 44.4 to 56.6µg/m3. The 98th percentile of Particulate Matter <2.5µm recorded within the study area were in the range of 13.7 to 21.7µg/m3. The 24 hourly average values of Particulate Matter <2.5µm& Particulate Matter <10µm were compared with the national ambient air quality standards and found that all recorded values within the applicable limits of residential and rural area limits for all locations in study area.

Sulfur dioxide emissions are expected to be emitted wherever combustion of any fuel containing sulfur takes place. The sulfur in the fuel will combine with oxygen to form sulfur dioxide. Sulfur trioxide and sulfuric acid mist are the other important pollutants in the sulfur group. In general some of the important sources of sulfur dioxide are Power stations, sulfuric acid plants, oil refining, boilers in utilities in any industry and domestic use of coal. The following sources of Sulfur dioxide in the study area are identified: 1. Emissions from domestic fuel (coal, diesel, etc.) 2. Emissions from Miscellaneous M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 3.16 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka Information in the literature has indicated that the presence of sulfur dioxide in the photochemical smog reaction enhances the formation of visibility enhancing aerosols. Sulfur dioxide in atmosphere is significant because of its toxicity. Sulfur dioxide is capable of producing illness and lung injury. Further it can combine with water in the air to form toxic acid. Aerosols can corrode metal surfaces, fabrics and the leaves of plants. Sulfur dioxide is irritating to the eyes and respiratory system. Excessive exposure to sulfur dioxide causes bronchial asthma and other breathing related diseases as it affects the lungs. The 98th percentile of SO2 recorded within the study area was in the range of 12.7 to 18.1µg/m3. The 24 hourly average values of SO2 were compared with the national ambient air quality standards and it was found that all sampling stations recorded values much lower than the applicable limit of 80µg/m3 for residential and rural areas.

Oxides of Nitrogen emissions are expected to be emitted wherever combustion at high temperatures takes place. Nitrous oxide and Nitric Acid Mist are the other important pollutants in the inorganic nitrogen group. M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 3.17 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka In general some of the important sources of oxides of Nitrogen are Boilers (utilities) in any industry and Auto exhaust. In a metropolitan town NOx levels are predominantly due to automobile emissions. The following sources of oxides of nitrogen in the study area are identified: 1. Emissions from domestic burning of coal. 2. Emissions from automobiles. Oxides of nitrogen have far greater significance in photochemical smog reaction than any of the other inorganic gaseous contaminants. NOx in the presence of sunlight will undergo reactions with a number of organic compounds to produce all the effects associated with photochemical smog. NOx has inherent ability to produce deleterious effects by themselves like toxicity. It acts as an asphyxiate when in concentrations great enough to reduce the normal oxygen supply from the air. The 98th percentile of NOx recorded within the study area was in the range of 15.5 to 21.8 µg/m3. The 24 hourly average values of NOx were compared with the national ambient air quality standards and it was found that all the sampling stations recorded values much lower than the applicable limit of 80 µg/m3 for residential and rural areas. d) Ozone (O3) Ozone (O3) or Trioxygen, is a triatomic molecule, consisting of three oxygen atoms. It is an allotrope of oxygen that is much less stable than the diatomic allotrope (O 2). Ozone in the lower atmosphere is an Air pollutant with harmful effects on the respiratory systems of animals and will burn sensitive plants; however the Ozone layer in the upper atmosphere is beneficial, preventing potentially damaging ultraviolet light from reaching the Earth’s surface. Ozone is present in low concentrations throughout the Earth’s atmosphere. The 98th percentile of O3 recorded within the study area was in the range of 14.9 to 20.1µg/m3. The 8 hour average values of Ozone were compared with the national ambient air quality standards and found that the recorded values were within the applicable limits of residential and rural area limits for all the locations in study area.

During the study period, the pH was varying for ground waters from 6.91 to 7.89, indicating that they are in acceptable limits. The acceptable limit for total dissolved solids as per IS: 10500-2012 Standards is 500 mg/l where as the permissible limit in absence of alternate source is 2000 mg/l, beyond this palatability decreases and may cause gastro intestinal irritation. In ground water samples collected from the study area, the total dissolved solids are varying from 364 mg/l to 1592 mg/l. The TDS of 5 samples are below the acceptable limit and 9samples were above the acceptable limit but within the permissible limit. The acceptablelimit for chloride is 250mg/l as per IS: 10500-2012 Standards whereas the permissible limit of the same is 1000 mg/l beyond this limit taste, corrosion and palatability are affected. The Chloride levels in the ground water samples collected in the study area were ranging from 83 mg/l to a maximum of 404 mg/l. The chloride level in 13 samples were with in the acceptable limit and one sample is above the acceptable limit but with in thepermissible limits. The acceptable limit as per IS: 10500-2012 Standards for hardness is 200 mg/l where as the permissible limit for the same is 600 mg/l beyond this limit encrustation in water supply structure and adverse effects on domestic use will be observed. In the ground water samples collected from the study area, the hardness is varying from 135 mg/l to 744 mg/l.The hardness in 3 samples is with in the acceptable limit, 10 samples were above the acceptable limit but with in the permissible limit and 1(GW- 12) sample is above the permissible limit. Fluoride is the other important parameter, which has the accetable limit of 1 mg/l and permissible limit of 1.5 mg/l as per IS: 10500-2012 Standards. However the optimum content of fluoride in the drinking water is 0.6 to 1.5 mg/l. If the fluoride content is less than 0.6 mg/l it causes dental carries, above 1.5 mg/l it causes staining of tooth enamel, higher concentration in range of 3 - 10 mg/l causes fluorosis. In the ground water samples of study area the fluoride value were in the range of 0.6 mg/l to 1.13 mg/l. The fluoride levels in all samples were with in the acceptable limit except one sample which is above the acceptable limits but with in the permissible limit. M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 3.25 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka Copper level in one sample is above the acceptable limit but within the permissible limt and remaining all samples are with in the accptable limit. Surface Water pH was varying between7.52 to 7.92. The pH values for all the samples collected in the study area during study period were meeting the Class ‘A’ norms as per IS: 2296-1982. The total dissolved solids were in the range of 168 mg/l to 296 mg/l, which were meeting the Class ‘A’ norms as per IS: 2296-1982. The chlorides were in the range of 49 mg/l to 59 mg/l, which were meeting the Class ‘A’ norms as per IS: 2296-1982. The hardness is varying between 68 mg/l to 138 mg/l, which were meeting the Class ‘A’ norms as per IS: 2296-1982. Fluoride content was in range of 0.31 mg/l to 0.42mg/l, which were meeting the Class ‘A’ norms as per IS: 2296-1982. From the above results it is shown that maximum no.of ground water samples that are collected and analysed are found to be with in the acceptable limits. Few samples are above the acceptable limit but with in the permissible limit. Hardness in one sample (Tegur Village) is above the permissible limit. Copper level in 1 location is above the acceptable limit but within the permissible limit. 3.7 Noise Environment Noise can be defined as unwanted sound or sound in the wrong place at the wrong time. It can also be defined as any sound that is undesirable because it interferes with speech and hearing, is intense enough to damage hearing or is otherwise annoying. The definition noise as unwanted sound implies that it has an adverse effect on human beings and their environment, including land, structures, and domestic animals. Noise can also disturb natural wildlife and ecological systems.Sound can be transmitted through gases, liquids, and solids. Noise impacts can be of concern during the construction and the operational phases of projects. Noise should also be considered in relation to present and future land use zoning and policies. Construction noise can be a significant source of community noise. Of concern are impacts on people near the construction site, who are totally unrelated to construction activities (e.g. area residents, office workers, school children, staff, etc.) Factors which are important in determining noise levels that will potentially impact such populations include distance from the noise source, natural or man-made barriers between the source and the M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 3.26 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka impacted population, weather conditions which could potentially absorb, reflect, or focus sound (such as wind speed, direction, temperature inversions), and the scale and intensity of the particular construction phase (excavation, erection, or finishing). The Environment/health impacts of noise can vary from Noise Induced Hearing Loss (NIHL) to annoyance depending on loudness of noise levels and tolerance levels of individual. 3.7.1 Sources of Noise The main sources of noise in the study area are domestic activities, industrial activities and vehicular traffic. The main occupation of the villagers in the study area is agriculture, business. 3.7.2 Noise Levels in the Study Area Baseline noise levels have been monitored at 15 locations within the study area, using a continuous noise measurement device.Random locations were identified for assessment of existing noise level status, keeping in view the land use pattern, residential areas in villages, schools, bus stands, etc., the day levels of noise have been monitored during 6 AM to 10 PM and the night levels during 10 PM to 6 AM.

In rural areas wind blowing and chirping of birds would contribute to noise levels especially during the nights. The day equivalents during the study period are ranging between 52.5 to 63.4dB (A). Whereas the night equivalents were in the range of 41.2 to 49 dB (A). From the results it can be seen that the Day equivalents and the Night equivalents were within the Ambient Noise standards of residential and industrial area standards. 3.8 Soil The area in particular is generally red sandy with patches of silty loam and red loamy soils. Due to this factor water quickly percolates in to the soil without causing any marshy conditions. The cultivable soils are spread over the area.

The pH of the soil is an important property; plants cannot grow in low and high pH value soils. The normal range of the soils in 6.0 to 8.5 is called as normal to saline soils. Most of the essential nutrients like N, P, K, Cl and SO 4 are available for plant at the neutral pH except for Fe, Mn and Al which are available at low pH range. The soils having pH below 7 are considered to be acidic from the practical standpoint, those with pH less than 5.5 and which respond to liming may be considered to qualify to be designated as acid soils. On the basis of pH measurements, the degree of soil acidity may be indicated. The pH values in the study area are varying from 6.59– 8.08 indicating that the pH range in all samples are falling in normal to saline class. The electrical conductivity of soils is classified as normal if less than 1000 µs/cm.The electrical conductivity in the study area is varying from 266 to 335 µMho/cm indicating that the soils are falling under Normal category. The organic carbon influences the soil in respect to colour, physical properties, supply of available nutrients and absorptive capacity. The main source of soil organic carbon is plant tissue while animals are the subsidiary source. Though organic carbon is a small part of mineral soils, it plays a vital role in the productivity and conditioning of soils. It serves as source of food for soil bacteria and fungi which are responsible for converting complex organic materials into simple substances readily used by the plants. In association with clay and calcium, it helps to form the aggregates of soil particles to produce the crumb structure. The Organic Carbon in the study area is varying from 0.15 – 0.28 % that indicating low range of organic carbon. The other important parameters for characterization of soil for irrigation are N, P, K (Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Potassium) are known as primary nutrientswhileCalcium, Magnesium and sulphur as secondary nutrients. The primary and secondary nutrient elements are known as major elements. This classification is based on their relative abundance, and not on their relative importance. Available Nitrogen encourages the vegetative development of plants by imparting a healthy green colour to the leaves. It also controls, to some extent, the efficient utilization of phosphorus and potassium. Its deficiency retards growth and root development, turns the foliage yellowish or pale green, hastens maturity, causes the shriveling of grains and lowers crop yield. Excess nitrogen produces leathery M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 3.36 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka and sometimes crinkled and dark green leaves with succulent growth. It also delays the maturation of plants, impairs the quality of crops like barley, potato, tobacco, sugarcane and fruits and increases susceptibility to diseases and causes ”lodging” of cereal crops by inducing an undue lengthening of the stem internodes.The available Nitrogen as N in the study area is varying from 132 to 163 kg/ha indicating soils of medium category. Available Phosphorus influences the vigor of plants and improves the quality of crops. It encourages the formation of new cells, promotes root growth (particularly the development of fibrous roots), and hastens leaf development, formation of grains, and the maturation of crops. It also increases resistance to disease and strengthens the stems of cereal plants, thus reducing their tendency to lodge. If phosphorus is deficient in the soil, plants fail to make a quick start, do not develop a satisfactory root-system, remain stunted and sometimes develop a tendency to show a reddish or purplish discoloration of the stem and foliage.In the study area available Phosphorus is varying from 5 to 14 kg/ha, which indicates that 4 samples are falling in low range and 11 samples are in medium range. Available Potassium enhances the ability of the plants to resist diseases, insect attacks, and cold and other adverse conditions. It plays an essential part in the formation of starch and in the production and translocation of sugars, and is thus of special value to carbohydrate rich crops, e.g. sugarcane, potato and sugar beet. The increased production of starch and sugar in legumes fertilized with potash benefits the symbiotic bacteria and enhances the fixation of nitrogen. Vegetables and legumes are particularly heavy consumers of potassium. Deficiency of potassium produces the characteristic ringing of alfalfa leaves, reddish brown discoloration of cotton leaves, curbing of leaf margins of potato, and intraveinal chlorosis and flaring of maize leaves.The available potassium in the study area is varying between 31 to 75 kg/ha which indicates that all samples are falling in low range. 3.9 Traffic Study Anthropogenic emissions not only contribute to the green house effect but also participate in the reaction that results in photochemical oxidants. The effect of photochemical oxidants is well known for forming smog particularly in the urban areas.Among the anthropogenic sources of pollutants forming the green house gases, burning of fossil fuels constitute a major source. Highway mobile sources that contribute significantly to poor quality have been regulated for the past two decades in countries like India. The absence of regulation in developing countries has caused a global concern regarding potential environmental damage on a larger scale. M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 3.37 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka In countries like India automobiles especially two-wheelers are a very popular mode of personal transport for socio-economic reasons. They constitute to about 70-95% of the total passenger’s vehicles. About the same percentage of two-wheeler vehicles are powered by two-stroke engines because of low initial and maintenance costs. However these two stroke engines have high emission levels which are of the major concern. Moreover, these emissions are concentrated in urban area, further contributing to already polluted “heat islands”. Poor public transportation and high transportation fares, increasing cost of living and greater demand for mobility may be attributed to a surge in the number of personal vehicles during the last decade. The objective of traffic study and emission quantification is to assess the magnitude of the emissions resulting from two-wheelers, three wheelers, and four wheelers that are extensively used as a means of common transport within the urban areas. A detailed traffic survey was conducted in the study area and also to evaluate the impacts of the increased traffic due to the proposed activity. Vehicular emissions are the major source of air quality impacts in the study area. The principal cause of air pollution during the construction phase is the diesel-powered vehicles used in haulage of aggregates, earth and other construction material. Air quality could be affected by dust & particulate matter arising due to site clearing, vehicular emissions etc. Gaseous emissions like Sulphur dioxide, Nitrous oxide, CO and HC might be released from the vehicular movement, which has a direct impact on the environment. Increase in the traffic in the study area has a direct impact on the resources as a heavy release of automobile exhaust is envisaged which has a direct impact on the air quality and the ambient noise levels in the study area. The methodology adopted for carrying out the traffic study was to select the major roads around the project site and count the various categories of vehicles moving on these roads given in Table 3.18 3.9.1 Traffic Studies - Conclusion The traffic survey was carried out on the NH 4 which is adjacent to the project site.

Ecological studies are one of the important aspects of Environmental Impact Assessment with a view to conserve environmental quality and biodiversity. The present objective is to study an area of 10km radius from the proposed project site. Ecological systems show complex interrelationships between biotic and abiotic components including dependence, competition and mutualism. Biotic components comprise of both plant and animal communities, which interact not only within and between themselves but also with the abiotic components viz. physical and chemical components of the environment. M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 3.39 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka Generally, biological communities are good indicators of climatic and edaphic factors. Studies on biological aspects of ecosystems are important in Environmental Impact Assessment for safety of natural flora and fauna. The biological environment includes terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. The animal and plant communities co-exist in a well-organized manner. Their natural settings can get disturbed by any externally induced anthropological activities or by naturally occurring calamities or disaster. So, once this setting is disturbed, it sometimes is either practically impossible or may take a longer time to come back to its original state. Hence, changes in the status of flora and fauna are an elementary requirement of Environmental Impact Assessment studies, in view of the need for conservation of environmental quality and biodiversity. Information on flora and fauna was collected within the study area. Relevant details on aquatic life within the study area were collected from related government offices. 3.10.2 Terrestrial Ecological Studies 3.10.2.1 Objectives of Ecological Study The objectives of the present study are intended to: Generate baseline data from field observations from various terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems; Compare the data so generated with authentic past records to understand changes; and Characterize the environmental components like land, water, flora and fauna. 3.10.2.2 Methods Adopted for the Study To accomplish the above objectives, a general ecological survey covering an area of 10km radius from the proposed project boundary was done as follows: Reconnaissance survey for selection of sampling sites in and around the site on the basis of meteorological conditions; Generation of primary data to understand baseline ecological status, important floristic elements; Generation of primary data to understand baseline fauna structure; and Collection of secondary data from Forest Working Plan and Gazetteers. 3.10.2.3 Criteria adopted for Selection of Sampling Locations Reconnaissance survey was conducted to identify the phyto-sociological sampling locations on the basis of following criteria: Proximity to the proposed IA; Downwind direction of the proposed IA ; and Upwind direction of the proposed IA. M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 3.40 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka 3.10.3 Review of Secondary Data and environmental setting of the project site With reference to the vegetation of the district, dry deciduous type of forests is observed in the study area. Natural factors include factors such as the altitude, the soil conditions, the quantity and regularity of the rainfall. The land in question is along the Kittur-Dharwad stretch of the Pune-Bangalore National Highway-4, about 3km from Kittur town and 15km from Circuit Bench of the Karnataka High Court on the outskirts of Dharwad city. These are hilly terrains, tilled and transformed into cultivable land. Farmers are cultivating paddy, soyabean, maize, sesame seeds, sugarcane, green gram, cotton and vegetables. Along with it, most of them have planted mango trees, which are three to 15 years old. The environmental setting of the proposed project site is given in Tabe 3.19 Figure 3.9 Planning and inputs with KIADB personal Figure 3.10 Start proofreading at proposed site with KIADB pesonals M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 3.41 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka Table 3.19 Details of Environmental Setting S.

The outside core area within 10km radius study area acts as the buffer zone. A preliminary survey was made and five locations for detailed study within 10km radius were selected. The proposed project is allotted in the Kittur IDA. The crops grown are Kharif and Rabbi, however, the crop Kharif dominates over Rabbi. The crop yield is moderate to good based on the rainfall and irrigation facilities. Biogeography of the area has very undulating topography with steep to moderately steep sloping hills with black soil type and sandy loam texture. The primary data was generated through: M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 3.43 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka Preparing a general checklist of all plants encountered in the study area. This would indicate the biodiversity for wild and cultivated plants. The plants so encountered were classified into life form spectrum according to the classification of Raunkiaer's (Braun Blanquet) classification of life form spectrum; Phytosociological studies were carried out by using list count quadrate method. Sufficient number of quadrates of 100 m2 size was employed for trees. The number of quadrates depended on actual field requirements; Estimating basal areas of trees and shrubs at breast height [132 cm from ground or above buttresses]; Herbaceous flora was studied by taking 10 quadrates in each location, each quadrate having 10 m2; Determining frequency, abundance, relative frequency, relative density, relative dominance and importance value indices using Mueller-Dombois-Ellenberge [1974] Method; Determining the bird population of migratory and local birds by taking 10 random readings at every location; Observing mammals, amphibians and reptiles, noting their calls, droppings, burrows, pugmarks and other signs; Noting impact of industrial activities on fauna, flora and crops. Effects on status and/or quality of growth on plants and any symptoms like defoliation, deformities, chlorosis, necrosis, warping, reduced vigour and infection by parasites and attacks by predator insects were noticed; and Local inhabitants were interviewed for uses of plants and animals and to get ethnobiological data. Flora: As per primary survey details, fair agro-vegetation cover in the study area. Growth of grasses in the study area is more in rainy season. Apart from rainy season, study area looks dry as most of the trees shed their leaves and it starts from December to May. Only reserve forest blocks are present in the study area, which comes under buffer zone of the study area. The reserve forest blocks found in the study area are found to be 6, 8 &10km (SE), 9&15km (SSE), 8km (SW), 7km (SSW) and 5km (WSW) respectively. Apart from reserve forest blocks, eucalyptus plantation is being observed along agriculture bunds and both sides of the road.it is found to be around 3.5 &7.5km(S), 7.5 & 8.5km(SSE), 7.2km(SW), 7.5km(WSW), 10km(N) respectively. However, there are no reserve forests, protected forests or revenue forest within the core zone.

The study area is abundantly occupied by trees apart from agroforestry types and commercial plantations such as Tamarindus indica, Terminalia chebula, Eucalyptus sp, carisa carandus, Butea monosperma and terminalia tomentos. Near village’s agriculture land, along village roads, state highways and major district roads Eucalyptus species, Dalbergia sisso, Acacia auriculoformis are predominant. Details of Shannon weinner diversity index and their standards are given in Table 3.23 and Table 3.24 respectively. Floristic Richness Field survey conducted in post monsoon season revealed a total of 89 species of plants of which almost all were phanerophytes, 4 were therophytes. During the present study all the plants observed in the field are recorded but there could be many other plants which have remained unrecorded due to limitation of time. Diversity of vegetation During primary survey, it was observed that density of plants is more in almost all sampling locations. To formulate the primary data obtained from field study it is concluded that same or monotonous, group of plants are observed near location at Mahipatgarh Reserve Forest Block. Rest of the locations show medium impact.

A plant community is governed by several factors like climatic, edaphic, topographic and biotic. Even local variations in environment affect components of plant community. Among all these factors, life form spectrum of an area, which reflects climatic conditions prevailing. In the study area, maximum number of species are phanerophytes (47.3%) followed by therophytes (37.6%). These classes are followed by hemicryptophytes (13.1%) and hydrophytes (1.75%). Geophytes were found in very few numbers (0.25%). Presence of large number of phanerophytes (shrubs and trees) and therophytes (Annuals or herbaceous vegetation) indicates tropical and mixed deciduous vegetation structure. The area shows a rich gene pool of perennial shrubs and trees. This indicates a potentially good area for their growth. Hemicryptophytes (predominantly grasses and sedges) were found to be significant in the area. These indicate fertile and wet soil in upper layer of soil profile. Hydrophytes were present in both the seasonal or perennial water bodies. 3.10.6 Identification of Local Protected Species As per Botanical Survey of India records and available published literature pertaining to the study area and current detailed study of project site, no threatened, endangered and rare plant species were observed from the study area. 3.10.7 Agriculture The common crops in the study area are saccharum officinarum, oryza sativa, Triticum diococcum, Pennisitum glacaum, zia mays which are mainly depend on rainwater and tube well, borewell in non monsoon season. In addition to these crop lands, various weeds are entered like Cynodon dictylon, Euphorbia hirta, Cyperus rotundus, Digitarea species and Alycicarpus are also contributing to primary production. Apart from that commercial crops like groundnut, sunflower and several vegetables like, red chillies, brinjal, bhendi, leafy vegetable crops are also grow in this region.

Among the carnivorous, jackal, sus scrofa, mongoose, jungle cat and hare are occasionally seen in the forests. The peacock, elephants are occasionally seen in the nearby forest. Porcupine (Hystrix India), monitor lizard are also observed. Among avifauna, pear fowl, patridges, quail, rock pigeon and jungle fowl are found in large numbers. Fauna in Core Zone No major fauna observed in core zone. Only some egrets, herons and drongo are observed in the plant area. Among mammals, only mongoose is observed in the core zone. There are no endangered fauna observed in the proposed plant area. Fauna (Buffer Zone) An extensive field studies were conducted in post monsoon season to know the present status of fauna of the study area. Apart from that, secondary data was collected by mode of interaction of local elderly people and Forest Working Plans of Dharwad district. As per the Wild Life Act (1972), those animals, which have been enlisted in the schedules of the Wildlife Act, have been presented below. The schedules are based on the species namely, rare, endangered, threatened, vulnerable etc. According to the threat of extinction, Schedule-I contains those species which need topmost priority, while II, III, IV and V have lesser degree of threat. Most of the avi-fauna has been listed in Schedule–IV. As per the list of avi-faunal species, these are mostly local migrant species only. On the basis of field observations, there is no major wildlife in the buffer zone. The details of animals recorded are presented in Table 3.26. Primary field surveys were conducted through random observation in the study area and also collected from elderly persons of the area, forest officials. This area hosts jackal, rabbits, foxes and other domestic animals. There are no endangered animals in the buffer area. The domesticated animals include cattles, buffalos, cats, goats, dogs etc. Cows and ducks are also common. The area is also represented with various species of water birds such as adreols (herons) ixobrachus etc. Table 3.26 Details of Fauna in Buffer Zone Sr. No. 1 2 3 Common Name Scientific Name I.MAMMALS Common Hare Lepus negrecollis *Common mongoose Herpestris edwardii Field mouse Rattus norvegicus Schedule (WPA-1972) Schedule-IV Schedule-II Schedule-III M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 3.60 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka Sr. No. 4 5 6 7 8 Common Name House rat Indian Porcupine Stripped squirrel Wild pig Jackal Scientific Name Rattus rattus *Hystrix indica Funumbulus pennadi *Sus sucrofa Cannis aureus II.

No critically endangered, endangered, threatened or rare species of wildlife in the buffer zone. 3.10.9 Aquatic Ecosystems Protecting the environment and making efficient use of natural resources are two of the most pressing demands in the present stage of social development. The task of preserving the purity of the atmosphere and water basins is of both national and global significance since there are no boundaries to the propagation of anthropogenic contaminants in the water. An essential pre requisite for the successful solution to these problems is to evaluate M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 3.61 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka ecological impacts from the baseline information and undertake effective management plan. So the objective of aquatic ecological study may be outlined as follows: To characterize water bodies like fresh waters; To understand their present biological status; To characterize water bodies with the help of biota; To understand the impact of industrial and urbanization activities; and To suggest recommendations to counter adverse impacts, if any on the ecosystem. To meet these objectives following methods were followed: Generating data by actual field sampling and analysis in these areas through field visits during study period; and Discussion with local people to get the information for aquatic plants and aquatic animals. To fulfill these objectives and to understand the present status of aquatic ecosystem, samples were collected from different fresh water system. The lists of aquatic sampling locations are given in Table 3.27. There are three sources located at north and south direction in the study area. Amongst the fresh water sources Tamraparni river, Jangamahatti dam are major. In order to get a clear picture and to assess the various biological parameters of water, four sampling locations were identified for sampling. Samples were collected during summer season. Methodology Adopted for Aquatic Studies Aquatic ecosystem close to the project area under investigation was considered for a detailed study. Water samples were considered for their physico-chemical characteristics. Plankton, aquatic plants, fish fauna of water bodies, and their associated fauna were collected, identified and estimated. The following methodology has been adopted for sampling. Lakey drop method has been used for phytoplankton and SR–Cell method was used for zooplankton respectively. To calculate the statistical accuracy of observed data, Shannon weinner diversity index and palmar pollution index were used. Palmar pollution index is used for only phytoplankton study. The diversity index and their standards are given in Table 3.28&Table 3.29 respectively. List of phytoplankton and zooplankton are given in Table 3.30and Table 3.31. M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 3.62 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka Figure 3.16 Aquatic ecological sampling at surface water source Phytoplankton Phytoplankton group reported from two locations are basillariophyceae, chlorophyceae, myxophyceae and euglenophyceae members. About 18 species of phytoplankton were reported from four locations. Density of phytoplankton group among the four locations was highest in lentic ecosystem (AE-3) and lowest in (AE-2). The density of phytoplankton group ranged between 17 to 26 organisms/ml in all studied samples. Dominance of Bacillariophyceae members followed by myxophyceae was observed in all the locations. The highest percentage was Ankistrodesmus falcatus and Anabeana sp and the lowest percentage was Euglena sp during study period was observed. The Shannon Weinner index for phytoplankton varies between 2.08 to 2.50 for study area. Zooplankton There are seven species of zooplanktons observed in the all locations in the study area. Daphnia, Asplancha, Ceriodaphnia is predominant animal species in studied samples The Shannon Weiner index for zooplankton varies between 1.1 and 2.24 respectively.

Biological samples were analysed and estimated diversity index. Plankton diversity Index for phytoplankton and zooplankton varies from 2.08 to 2.50 and 1.1 to 2.24 respectively. Physico-chemical, biological parameters and diversity index reveals that the studied water bodies are slightly mesotrophic in nature. 3.11 Socio Economic Details 3.11.1 Objective Any developmental activity will have impact on the socio-economic conditions of the population in the region and on the quality of life. Socio-Economic Impact Assessment helps to get an idea of changes on social, economic and cultural status. Keeping in view the commitment of the organization towards social responsibility as well as to honor the sentiments and developmental needs of the local population, sample survey was done to collect qualitative information about the socio economic environment of the area. 3.11.2 Approach In order to prepare a comprehensive report, few villages were visited for conducting sample village survey containing questions about all socio-economic aspects, including questions on the aspirations and requirements of the people for a better living. The village schedule was filled in order to capture the overall condition of the village with respect to community land, major crops produced, sources of irrigation, availability of potential earning opportunities in the vicinity, community institutions (schools, Anganwadi center, health sub-center, community center, places of worship, etc.), availability of electricity, provision of drainage and toilet facility etc. 3.11.3 Conditions at the Proposed Development of Kittur Industrial Area Site and Surroundings The Study area is mostly inhabited by economically weaker section people. Lack of amenities such as roads, drinking water, dwellings, lavatories, education, employment, medical and electricity facilities was evident during the site visit. The main occupation of people in this area is agriculture. Only few are working as daily wage laborers in the Belur industrial area. When asessors visited the local villages and conducted a village wise Focused Group Discussion (FGD), many intresting facts were revealed. The main source of livelihood of the population in the study area is agriculture and Coolie. The M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 3.65 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka increased industrialization is affecting the crop production, which is indirectly affecting the livelihood of the local people. There is no electricity and irrigation facility for agriculture. The natural surroundings of this area are likely to be altered which affects the livelihood and biodiversity of the region due to the proposed project. The basic emininty like public lavatories are absent. The basic facilities like education, medical, transportation, roads and infrastructure are developed to some extent and still have to be developed further. When the survey team consulted the people of this area they said that they have no hopes of any development as promised by industries owners. People are expecting that facilities like professional training centers, self-employment schemes for women and unemployed educated youth.

Road Improvements 3.12 Land Utilzation The satellite based remote sensing is a sustainable global information system because it has the potential to meet the needs and demands of the present and future. The synoptic Average, which provides capability for integaration of real time information on regional and global scales, is a unique characteristic of this information system. Its versatility lies in its M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 3.74 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka inherent capability to conceptualize situation to give clear perceptions for defining short term and long term objectives. An activity could bring about changes in the Land use and Land cover in the vicinity. A data based on Land use and Land cover indicates ecosystem existing in and around the center of an economic activity, to safeguard to allow comparision at a future date to draw conclusions on the nature. The objective of the study of the land environment is to define the present environment in which the developmental activity is proposed, to evaluate all possibilities to ensure that the proposed project has no negative impacts and if any, are definetly minimized. The methodology adopted in analysis and interpretation of FCC-LISS-III data of Indian Remote Sensing(IRS) satellite covering the study area. The data was analyzed adopting a man-machine interactive approach through an interactive process of combining field observations and data interpretation.

Chapter 4 Anticipated Environmental Impacts &Mitigation Measures 4.1 Introduction In this chapter the environmental impacts associated with the proposed development of Kittur Industrial Area are identified, characterized and evaluated systematically. The extent of impact on air, water, soil, flora, and fauna will be evaluated in relation to the environmental pollution. The impacts will be distinctly direct and indirect, positive and negative, reversible and irreversible. The prediction of impacts on various environmental parameters during pre-operational, operational, and post-operational activities assists in effective identification of mitigation measures to minimize the adverse impacts on environmental quality. The prediction of impacts on different sectors has been studied using scientific tools and the results are anticipated. Such predictions are superimposed over the baseline (pre-project) status of environmental quality to develop the ultimate (post-project) scenario of the environmental conditions. The successful environmental impact assessment process requires proper identification, prediction, assessment, and also communication of the significant environmental impacts to the public. The details on impact of the project activity on each of the disciplines mentioned above are discussed below. The environmental impacts associated due to the proposed development of Kittur Industrial Area are classified into two phases and the possible impacts are assessed. 1. Impacts during constructional phase 2. Impacts during operational phase 4.2 Impact during Construction Phase Activities during constructional phase include site clearance, site formation, building works, infrastructure provision, and any other infrastructure activities. 4.2.1 Impact on Air Quality Up gradation of existing roads and construction of new roads approaching the proposed development of Kittur Industrial Area involves cutting and filling of the earth. Within the proposed IA, cutting and leveling activity would be required for providing roads, sewage network, storm water system, administrative buildings for proposed project. M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 4.1 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka. The potential source of air quality impact arising from the establishment/construction of the proposed project is fugitive dust generation. The dust, measurable as Particulate Matter (PM<2.5µm, PM<10µm), Sulphur dioxide (SO2) oxides of nitrogen (NOx), would be generated as a result of construction activities. During construction, the existing houses nearby may be subjected to the potential dust impacts. The potential dust sources associated with the constructional activities are loading and unloading of the materials, top soil removal, vehicular movement over unpaved roads, and wind erosion, etc. The possible constructional activities that contribute to the environmental impacts broadly given below: Dust Generation during leveling of earth Dust generation due to the movement of vehicles on unpaved roads Emission of pollutants from vehicular exhaust Unloading of raw materials and removal of unwanted waste material Accumulation of excavated earth material 4.2.1.1 Proposed Mitigation Measures The impact of the above mentioned activities would be temporary and will be restricted to the constructional phase. However, the impact is generally confined to the proposed development of Kittur Industrial Area and is expected to be negligible outside the boundary. Nevertheless, the following mitigation measures will be adopted to limit the environmental impact during constructional phase for development of Kittur Industrial Area Regular water sprinkling will be done to avoid the dust materials entering into the atmosphere. Furthermore, during windy days, the frequency of the water sprinkling will be increased. The vehicular movement will be minimized, with a planned scheduling, to reduce the emission of pollutants. Temporary thin sheets of sufficient height (3m) will be erected around the proposed site for development of Kittur Industrial Area as a barrier for dust control. The excavated material shall be reused within the boundary from the Kittur Industrial Area and the movement of cut and fill material will be limited. Plantation of trees around the proposed boundary of Kittur Industrial Area and it will be initiated at the early stages by plantation of 2 to 3 years old saplings using drip irrigation so that the area will be moist for most part of the day. All the vehicles carrying raw materials will be covered with tarpaulin/plastic sheet; unloading and loading activity will be stopped during windy period. M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 4.2 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka. 4.2.2 Impact on Water Quality The proposed development of Kittur Industrial Area project involves various construction activities and the impact on water quality associated with each of these construction activities are described below: Site formation The preparation of land required for the subsequent development activities generates a significant amount of construction waste. The site formation may produce large quantities of run-off with high suspended solids in the absence of appropriate mitigation measures. This potential problem will be intensified during rainy season. Construction of buildings During rainy season, due to the construction of various civil structures, the site runoff results in significant pollution in the receiving water bodies and washing of various construction equipments will also result in water pollution. Site workshop The storage of used engine oil and lubricants as waste materials has a potential to create impacts if spillage occurs. Waste oil may infiltrate into the surface soil layers or in the form of runoff into local watercourses which increases the hydrocarbon levels. Presence of workers Wastewater will be generated from eating areas and the sewage will be generated from temporary sanitary facilities. Significant impact on water quality is envisaged if the sewage is discharged directly into the receiving waters without any prior treatment. 4.2.2.1 Mitigation Measures During site development necessary precautions will be taken, so that the runoff water from the site gets collected in a working pit. If any over flow occurs, the excess water will be diverted to nearby greenbelt/plantation area. The domestic wastewater, generated from cleaning of equipment and from eating areas, will be collected and diverted to the working pit in which the suspended solids, if any, will be separated. The settled water will be reused for constructional purposes and for sprinkling on roads to control the dust emissions. The domestic wastewater generated from temporary toilets used by the work force will be diverted to septic tank followed by soak pit. If the wastewater generation is high a mobile STP will be hired from the local suppliers. Therefore, impact on water quality due to proposed development of Kittur Industrial Area would be insignificant. M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 4.3 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka. The waste generated from the site work shop will be segregated like used oil, lubricants, etc and disposed to authorized recyclers. The waste like soiled cotton, paper, etc will be disposed to municipal bins. 4.2.3 Impact on Noise Levels The major activities, which produce periodic noise, during construction phase, are as follows: Foundation works Fabrication of structures Plant erection Operation of construction equipment Movement of vehicles 4.2.3.1 Mitigation Measures The impact on noise environment can be made insignificant by adopting the following mitigation measures Noise generating equipment will be used during day time for a brief period as per requirements. Where ever possible the noise generating equipment will be kept away from the human habituation. Temporary thin sheets of sufficient height (3m) will be erected around the proposed site for the development of Kittur Industrial Areaas barrier for minimizing the noise travel to surrounding area. All the vehicles entering into the proposed site for the development of Kittur Industrial Area will be informed to maintain speed limits, and not to blow horns unless it is required. The workers involved in operating major noise generating equipments will be provided with ear plugs/ear muffs. 4.2.4 Impacts due to Solid Waste Generation During the constructional stage, the solid waste generated is required to be disposed in an appropriate and environmentally acceptable manner. The waste generated from different activities of constructional phase include following Vegetation and demolition waste from site clearance Excavated materials from earthworks like cuttings, grading, & foundation works General construction waste like wood, scrap metal, & concrete debris Domestic waste generated by site workers bricks, tiles cement plaster steel (from RCC, door/ window frames, roofing support, railings of staircase etc) M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 4.4 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka. rubble, sand stone (Marble, granite, sand stone) timber/wood paints/varnishes Besides above there are some major and minor components namely conduits, pipes, electrical fixtures, panels, etc in all the proposed projects. In addition the packing material used for packing of various items used in creation of sports infrastructure and others also constitutes the solid waste. 4.2.4.1 Mitigation Measures The solid waste generated during this period being predominantly inert in nature, construction and demolition waste does not create chemical or biochemical pollution. Hence maximum effort would be made to reuse and recycle them. The most of the solid waste material can be used for filing/ leveling of low-laying areas. All attempts should be made to stick to the following measures. All construction waste shall be stored within the proposed site for development of Kittur Industrial Area itself. A proper screen will be provided so that the waste does not get scattered. Attempts will be made to keep the waste segregated into different heaps as far as possible so that their further gradation and reuse is facilitated. Materials, which can be reused for purpose of construction, leveling, making roads/ pavement will also be kept in separate heaps from those which are to be sold or land filled. The local body or a private company may be arranged to provide appropriate number of skip containers/ trolleys on hire. The use of the construction material basically depends on their separation and conditions of the separated material. A majority of these materials are durable and therefore, have a high potential for reuse. It would, however, be desirable to have quality standards for the recycled materials. Construction waste can be used in the following manner. Reuse of bricks, tiles, stone slabs, timber, piping railings etc to the extent possible and depending upon their conditions. Sale/ auction of materials which cannot be used at the site due to design constraint Plastics, broken glass, scrap metal etc can be sent for recycling in the industries. Rubble/ brick bats can be used for building activity, such as leveling, under coat of lanes where the traffic does not constitute heavy moving loads. Larger unusable pieces can be sent for filing up low laying areas. M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 4.5 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka. Fine material such as sand, dust, etc can be used as cover material The unearthed soil can be used for leveling as well as for lawn development The broken pieces of the flooring material can be used for leveling in the building or can be disposed off The unused or remaining paints/varnishes/wood can either be reused or can be disposed off 4.2.5 Impact on Land Use There will not be any adverse impact on the land use as the allotted land falls under industrial area approved by Govt. of Karnataka State. Furthermore, the impact on surrounding land use, during the constructional activity, is negligible as all the raw materials required will be stored in the designated area within the boundary of the development of Kittur Industrial Area 4.2.6 Impact on Demography and Socio-economics The impact due to the proposed development of Kittur Industrial Area on demography and socio economic conditions of the study area would be as follows. Increase of floating population Additional strain on civic amenities like road, transport, communication, drinking water, sanitation, and other facilities to meet the work force requirement Increase in demand for services like hotels, lodges, public transport, etc Employment opportunities for construction laborers, skilled and unskilled workers, etc Economic up liftment of the area Raising of home rents and land prices and increase in labour rates Rapid growth of service sector will result in increase of incomes in the area More work to civil construction and transportation companies Expanding of services like retail shops, banks, automobile workshop, schools, hospitals, etc Increase in literacy rates 4.3 Impacts during Operation The major areas identified to assess the environmental impact due to the development of Kittur Industrial Area are given below Topography & Climate Ambient Air Quality Water Quality Soil Quality Noise Quality Solid Waste Generation Ecology M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 4.6 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka. Demography and Socio-economics Impact on Health 4.3.1 Impact on Topography and Climate The major topographical changes envisaged would be the manmade structures like erection of plant sheds, raw material storage space, civil structures, water reservoirs, etc. However, it will also invite some positive benefits in the form of up gradation of existing roads, land leveling, tree plantations, greenbelt development, etc., in the proposed IA vicinity. Being an Industrial area, the impact on the climate due to the exhaust gas could be envisaged. However, the impact on the climatic conditions from the proposed development of Kittur Industrial Area will be marginal which can be nullified / reduced by developing green belt and by adopting pollution prevention equipment’s like bag filters. 4.3.2 Impact on Air Quality The main raw materials required for the proposed development ofKittur Industrial Area are water and power. SO2 and NOX are major air pollutant generated from the proposed development of IA. However, SO2 and NOX emissions are anticipated during the usage of DG sets & Boilers 4.3.2.1 Emission Details Emissions generated during process activities will be properly managed by the member industries. However, the SO2 and NOX emissions are generated from proposed development of Kittur Industrial Area as DG sets & Boilers are properly dispersed into the atmosphere by providing the stack at sufficient height. 4.3.2.2 Stimulation Model for Prediction – (AERMOD) AERMOD(American Meteorological Society/Environmental Protection Agency Regulatory Model Improvement Committee’s Dispersion Model, version 7.0.3 Gaussian dispersion models for prediction of ground level concentrations (GLC’s) of Sulphur dioxide (SO2), and oxides of Nitrogen (NOx) from point source emissions of proposed development of Kittur Industrial Area. M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 4.7 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka. It should be noted that the Vertical Term includes the effects of source elevation, receptor elevation, plume rise, limited mixing in the vertical, and the gravitational settling and dry deposition of particulates (with diameters greater than about 0.1 microns). AERMOD View dispersion model was developed by Lakes Environmental software. It is used extensively to assess pollution concentration and deposition from a wide variety of sources. It is a regulatory steady-state plume modeling system with three separate components: AERMOD View (AERMOD Dispersion Model), AERMAP (AERMOD Terrain Pre-processor), and AERMET (AERMOD Meteorological Pre-processor). The AERMOD model includes a wide range of options for modeling air quality impacts of pollution sources. Some of the modeling capabilities of AERMOD include the following The model is used to analyze primary pollutants. Source emission rates can be treated as constant or may be varied by month, season, hour-of-day, or other optional periods of variation. These variable emission rate factors may be specified for a single source or for a group of sources. For this project all emission rates were treated as constant. The model can account for the effects of aerodynamic downwash due to buildings that are nearby point source emissions. Receptor locations are specified as gridded and/or discrete receptors in a Cartesian or polar coordinate system. Site location involving elevated terrain, the AERMAP terrain pre-processing program is incorporated into the model to generate hill height scales as well as terrain elevations for all receptor locations. The model contains algorithms for modeling the effects of settling and removal (through dry and wet deposition) of large particulates and for modeling the effects of precipitation scavenging for gases or particulates. AERMOD requires two types of meteorological data files, a file containing surface scalar parameters and a file containing vertical profiles. These two files are provided by AERMET meteorological pre-processor program.

Industries such as Pulp & Paper, Fertilizer, Tanneries, Chemical, Dye & Dye Intermediates, Bulk Drugs & Pharmaceuticals etc, Large Livestock operations, Poultry Farms, Slaughter Houses, Food and Meat processing industries and Bone Mills are among major contributors to odour pollution. Unscientific design of landfill or improper sewage treatment practices produce unpleasant odour. Vehicular sector also has its share in odour pollution. Rapidly growing vehicular population as well as pollutants emitted by them generate harmful and pungent odour that have marked effects on pedestrians as well as near-by residents. 4.3.3.1 Sources of Odour Odour-producing compounds are hydrogen sulfide, ammonia, carbon disulfide, mercaptans, phenols and some petroleum hydrocarbons. Most offensive odour is created by the anaerobic decay of wet organic matter. Warm temperature enhances anaerobic decay and foul odour production. Odour sources can be classified as: • Point Sources: Point sources are confined emissions from vents, stacks and exhausts. • Area Sources: Area sources may be unconfined like sewage treatment plant, waste water treatment plant, solid waste landfill, composting, household manure spreading, settling lagoons etc. M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 4.17 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka • • Building Sources: Building sources of odour like pig sheds and hog confinement chicken. Fugitive Sources: In this source of odour, emissions are of fugitive nature like odour emissions from soil bed or bio-filter surface Some of the important sources of odour pollution with specific sources and the odorous compounds emitted are listed in below Table 4.6. Table 4.6 Important Sources of Odour Pollution and Odorous Compounds Emitted Sources Pulp & Paper Fertilizers Pesticides Tanneries Sugar & Distillery Chemical Dye & Dye Intermediates Bulk Drugs & Pharmaceuticals Sections Digester Black Liquor Storage Tank Evaporator Recovery Boiler Smelt Dissolving Tank Lime kiln Nitrogenous Phosphatic Raw hides and skins storage / waste fleshing Beam house operation Finishing operation ETP: Collection Tanks ETP: Primary Treatment Units ETP: Sludge Dewatering System ETP: Anaerobic Lagoons Bio-methanation Aeration Tank - Odorous Compounds CH3SH CH3SH, CH3,2S H2S, CH3,2S2, CH3,2S CH3SH, CH3,2S H2S, CH3SH CH3SH, SO2 NH3, SO2, F2 CH3CHO, NH3, H2S Putrification of Hides & Skins NH3, H2S Volatile organic compounds H2S H2S H2S H2S, CH4 H2S NH3 NH3 H2S, Cl2, Mercaptans & Phenols NH3, H2S, SO2, Mercaptans Biological extracts and wastes spent termination liquors Anaerobic decomposition H2S, SO2, Mercaptans Municipal Solid Waste Anaerobic decomposition H2S, Mercaptans Slaughter Houses By-product / Waste Storage Effluent Treatment Plant CH4, H2S, Mercaptans Waste Water Treatment Plant M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad H2S & Mercaptans 4.18 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka Though foul odour may not cause direct damage to health, toxic stimulants of odour may cause ill health or respiratory symptoms. Secondary effects, in some, may be nausea, insomnia and discomfort. Very strong odour can result in nasal irritation, trigger symptoms in individuals with breathing problems or asthma. 4.3.3.2 Odour Mitigation Measures Mitigation measure for Odour related impacts depends on type of sources – Area source or Point source. Some of the control measures from odour emitting from Area Source such as holding ponds, lagoons and effluent treatment plants are: 1. Developing green buffer around source 2. Nozzles and Sprayers containing chemicals (eg. Chlorine dioxide) 3. Rotary water atomizers In case of Point Sources such as that of industries, the odour-causing gas stream can be treated after collecting through piping and ventilation system. Different treatment technologies are available for control of odour from gas streams collected through process ventilation systems. These include: 1. Dispersion method - release odorous gases from tall stack is the simplest of the methods that can be adopted for odour abatement. It results in normal dispersion in the atmosphere and consequent decrease in ground-level concentration below the threshold value. 2. Mist filtration - While gases cause most odour, problem may also result from aerosols in the fumes. Odorous air streams frequently contain high concentration of moisture. If the vapour discharge can be cooled below 40°C, a substantial quantity of the water vapour will condense thereby reducing the volume of gases to be incinerated. Mist filters can be used for this purpose. 3. Thermal oxidation/ Incineration – It is the oxidation of the odour into carbon dioxide and water by the combustion of the odour with fuel and air. The reaction takes place at temperatures ranging from 750OC to 850OC. This is generally above the autoignition temperature of most solvents and other VOCs. In this regime, the destruction efficiency is almost 100%, assuming adequate oxygen supply. 4. Catalytic oxidation – is a reaction taking place at much lower temperatures (e.g. 200OC) in the presence of a catalyst. Thus, the advantage of this process over thermal oxidation is the reduction in required energy input. A number of transition and precious metal catalysts can be used in catalytic oxidizer to destroy various VOCs over a wide range of process conditions. M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 4.19 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka 5. Bio filtration - This method is a natural process that occurs in the soil that has been adopted for commercial use. Bio-filters contain micro–organisms that break down VOC’s and oxidize inorganic gases and vapours into non–aromatic compounds such as water and CO2. The bacteria grow on inert supports, allowing intimate contact between the odorous gases and the bacteria. Bio-filters can be constructed using various materials such as compost, straw, wood chips, peat, soil, and other inexpensive biologically active materials. Another type of bio-filter is the soil-bed filter wherein the odorous gas stream is allowed to flow through porous soil with depth of 60 cm and the bacteria in the soil destroy the odorous compounds. 6. Adsorption – Adsorption on to activated carbon is a method that is suitable for controlling odorous substances, even at low concentrations. However, the contaminated air stream must be free from dusts and particulates that might clog the carbon particles. Regeneration of carbon for re-use will produce either waste water, which will require further treatment before disposal, or a concentrated vapour stream, which can be easily incinerated. Activated alumina impregnated with potassium permanganate can be used as Adsorption system. The alumina absorbs the odorous substances and the permanganate in it oxidizes them to carbon dioxide, water, nitrogen and sulfur dioxide, depending on their composition. This is more economical method over carbon because no further treatment is needed. 7. Wet scrubbing/Absorption - Wet scrubbing of gases to remove odour involve either absorption in a suitable solvent or chemical treatment with a suitable reagent. Absorption is applicable when the odorous gases are soluble or emulsifiable in a liquid or react chemically in solution. Wet scrubbing is a useful process to handle acid gas streams, ammonia or streams with solids that might foul other equipment. Liquid scrubbing is economical compared to incineration and adsorption on activated carbon when the volume of odorous gas to be treated is greater than 5000 m 3/hr. Wet scrubbing or absorption systems can be either Venturi system or Packed tower system. Venturi systems are co-current scrubbers that accelerate the gas stream into a high density liquor spray. Packed Towers are typically counter current scrubbers that utilize high surface area media as a contact zone for the gas stream with suitable scrubbing liquor. 8. Chemical treatment - Injecting controlled quantities of chemicals such as chlorine, chlorine dioxide or hydrogen peroxide into process-gas stream can control odour. Chlorine dioxide destroys the odour at source and is several times more effective than chlorine and other commonly used treatments. Due to this versatility, chlorine M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 4.20 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka dioxide can be used in all aspects of odour control process, from air scrubbers and wastewater treatment. However, Hydrogen Peroxide may be preferred over Chlorine Dioxide due to toxicity of organo-chlorides, a byproduct formed during chlorine reactions. 9. Irradiation – UV applications for odour control require high expenditure involving chambers to hold odourous gases for 3-4 minutes and react with Ozone which exchanges electrons with target molecules. Nowadays, Neutrapol is used instead of ozone which is harmless and non-toxic and carry a positive charge. As the molecules of target gases and surfaces are negatively charged, the Neutrapol molecules attach to the target molecules. Neutrapol is able to deodorize wide range of gases - acidic, neutral and alkaline. 10. Condensation – It is a process of converting gas or vapour to liquid. Any gas can be reduced to a liquid by sufficiently lowering its temperature and / or increasing pressure. Condensers are simple, relatively inexpensive devices that normally use water or air to cool and condense a vapour stream. Through this process, high removal efficiencies of most gaseous pollutants are not obtained unless the vapours will condense at high temperatures. Condensers are typically used as pretreatment devices in order to reduce the cost of the control system. They can also be used ahead of adsorbers, absorbers to reduce the total gas volume to be treated. 11. Green belt development - Green belts are used to form a surface capable of sorbing and forming sinks for odorous gases. Leaves with their vast area in a tree crown, sorbs pollutants on their surface, thus effectively reduce their concentrations in the ambient air and source emissions. Weightage is to be given for native species while developing greenbelt. Few plants which counteract odour are: Acacia farnesiana is Needle bush with yellow coloured fragrant flowers. It does not have rich canopy but very effective for counteracting smell. Melaleuca species have sweet fragrance and thin canopy. Pine, Cedar, Junipers have excellent canopy and protection. Eucalyptus can be used as green belt and also as per odour source. Tulasi, Turmeric etc. can also be used for counteracting odour. Vetiver is king of perfumes for inactivating other odours. 4.3.4 Impact on Water Quality 4.3.4.1 Wastewater Generation The main source of water for the proposed project is Malaprabha River.The details of water balance showing wastewater generation are given in Table 4.7. 1.4 MLD CETP (2X0.7MLD) and 1 MLD CSTP (2X0.5 MLD) is proposed for treatment of industrial and M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 4.21 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka domestic wastewater respectively.

The industrial wastewater and domestic wastewater, collected through separate drains, and treated in CETP & CSTP as shown in Figures 4.6 & 4.7. The treated water will be reused for Green belt development and for industrial activities (floor washing, dust suppression and cooling etc.). 4.3.4.3 Rainwater Harvesting & Storm Water Runoff All along the road network of the proposed site for Kittur Industrial Area, storm water drains would be provided to collect water during rains. They would adequately sized to prevent flooding of the site. It is proposed to have rainwater harvesting structures for recharge of roof top rainwater and rain water of paved surface at respective buildings. Treatment for silt, oil & grease removal will be provided to rainwater harvesting recharging pit. Overflow from the harvesting pit and storm water of road / open space will be collected through road side storm water drains.

The excess water if any from the rainwater harvesting pits is diverted to storm water drains. The storm water drains will be acting as recharge trench as the bottom will not be lined and intermittent check dams will be provided in the storm water drains, so that maximum amount of rainwater infiltrate into the ground. The excess water will be diverted into the common storm water drain. The width and depth of the main storm water drain is 0.50 m and 0.60 m respectively and the remaining internal storm water drains are planned accordingly. 4.3.5 Impact on Traffic The impact on traffic during operation phase of the proposed industrial area is depends upon the type of activities and industries that are coming in the industrial area. The M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 4.25 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka proposed Development of Kittur Industrial area is adjacent to the NH4 (MumbaiChennai). The impact of the traffic is assessed on the basis of 1. Incremental traffic due to the proposed project; 2. Impact on air quality; 3. Adequacy of the existing highway road network; 4. Adequacy of the existing internal road network; and 5. Adequacy of parking facilities The transport demand is a function of land use. The land use will be developed in phases and it has been taken from the approved plan of Industrial area and it will be used for traffic demand projections. Some broad assumptions have also been made about trip generating potential of the various land uses in different horizon years. The attraction to the study area from surrounding areas is based on assumptions. Some of the broad assumptions are given in Table 4.11 Table 4.11 Traffic Details Type of Shift Type of Vehicle Daily 3 Shifts Two wheeler Auto Car Bus Total General Shift Total Two wheeler Auto Car Bus No.of Persons 450 225 113 338 1125 563 113 338 113 1125 Persons Per Vehicle 2 3 4 40 No.of Vehicles 225 75 28 8 337 281 38 84 3 406 2 3 4 40 PCUs 169 150 28 31 378 211 75 84 10 381 Note: Total estimated manpower is 4500 which will come by company, Govt & other private vehicles.

The total PCUs in future will be 2711 PCUs in peak hour of the day and which is within the IRC-106-1990 Standards for 2 way/4 lane (Roads with no frontage access, no standing vehicles very little cross traffic). Hence, there will be no impact on the existing road (NH 4) due to the proposed Development of Kittur Industrial Area. The level of service of the existing road is remains same after the commencement of industrial activities. The industrial area is proposing a service road parallel to the NH4 in order to decrease the load on the existing road and to upgrade its level of service from ‘D’ to ‘C’. All the vehicles coming from the industrial area will enter NH4 only through a 30m wide internal road. 4.3.6 Solid Waste Management The present section presents an assessment of solid waste impacts associated with the operational phase of the proposed development of Kittur Industrial Area. The sources of solid waste generation at the different phases of the development are categorized as follows. Pre-construction / Construction phase: Construction and demolition waste is generated during the constructional activity. Activities such as site clearance, site formation, building works, infrastructure provision and any other infrastructure. It consists mostly of inert and non-biodegradable materials such as concrete, plaster, metal, plastics etc. Occupational phase: The most common solid waste generated in the proposed project is used batteries, waste oil, and municipal solid waste containing biodegradable and non-biodegradable waste. 4.3.6.1 Solid waste generation during Operational Phase The major solid wastes generated from the proposed development of Kittur Industrial Area during operation are waste oil and used batteries and domestic waste. The details of the hazardous and non-hazardous waste generated are given in Table 4.13 & 4.14 M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 4.27 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka Table 4.13 Details of the Hazardous Waste Category of Wastes Name of Quantity Method of collection and disposal the waste Batteries (M&H) Lead acid 460 nos / Will be returned back to supplier Rules 2010 batteries year Used oil Category of 5.1 Used oil 1900ltrs CHWMF (Common Hazardous of schedule -1 /year Waste Management Facility) for appropriate treatment and disposal or any authorised dealer Bio medical Waste Rule Bio7.5 Kg /day Bio Medical Waste 2011 medical Treatment Facility operator.

M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 4.28 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka 4.3.7.1 Positive Impacts Increase in employment opportunities and Reduction in migrants to outside for employment. Growth in industrial sector of local area Increase in consumer prices of indigenous produce and services, land prices, house rent rates and Labour prices. Improvement in socio cultural environment of the study area. Improvement in transport, communication, health and educational services. Increase in employment due to increased business, trade and commerce and service sector. 4.3.7.2 Negative Impacts The negative impacts would be minimized by allocating the funds for EMP & CSR. Annually a minimum of 1% profit from respective industrial areas will be used for taking up CSR activities. From the capital cost of the proposed project, around Rs. 11.3 crores will be allocated to Environmental Budget for Environmental Management / Environmental Mitigation Measures. The overall impact on the socio economic environment will be beneficial. 4.4 Greenbelt Development Most of the human activities generate pollution of one or other types and of different magnitudes, to which all the organisms are exposed. More often than not, exposures to some pollution types are considered unavoidable. Resistance of organisms helps them overcome the hazards caused by such exposures. The air pollution emitted by various sources settles on the ground and vegetation of surrounding area. The plants interact with both gaseous and particulate pollutants and to great extent absorb them and thus, remove them from the atmosphere. This pollution removal property of the plants has been known for a long time. For many years tree planting has been promoted by city planners for the purpose of reducing ground level air pollution. The details of the land allotted for greenbelt and landscaping works are given in Table 4.15. Table 4.15 Greenbelt and Landscaping details Particulars Area Ha Area Acre Remarks @ 1000 plants/Ha will be planted in greenbelt. Total Land 58.17 143.73 Local species will be identified and planted 15m along the boundary of the IA and 2m along the road M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 4.29 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka 4.4.1 Mitigation of Impacts by Green Belt In the proposed development of Kittur Industrial Area the natural vegetation of the construction site is going to be severely damaged; however in the present case only small portion of the land will be used for providing civil infrastructure. But none of the plants or animals of the proposed site (Core area) belong to Rare or Endangered or Endemic or Threatened (REET) categories occur in the buffer zone. Hence, there are no chances of losing any valuable biodiversity. When the project is fully operational over a period, lots of greenery comes up in the form of avenue trees, ornamentals, fruit trees and lawns. As a result, the loss of carbon sequestration capacity due to the loss of few plants could be compensated. There is no plan to introduce new exotic species except those that have become naturalized. Preference will be given to native and local trees. A list of trees proposed to be included for the development of green belt and avenue plantations as per CPCB guidelines are given in Table 4.16. Planting stocks are readily available from the Forest Department as well as from the local private nurseries. All plants are locally adapted and the present site can support their growth with suitable horticultural practices. Sufficient space, resources and man power for development and maintenance are provided in the plan. 4.5 Overall view of impacts due to proposed project Any developmental activity will have an impact on the surrounding environment. The possible impacts and the proposed mitigation measures during the construction and operational phases of the proposed industrial area are given in Table 4.17.

The quantities stored and the degrees of hazard in terms of NFPA ratings are given below. The National Fire Protection Agency, USA (NFPA), on scale 0 to 4 (least to worst), hazard rating is used as a tool to assess the preliminary hazard potential of a material shown in the Table 7.3. S.No Table 7.3 Properties of Fuel employed Raw Material Nh Nf Nr 1 HSD (High Speed Diesel) 1 2 0 From the above table it can be inferred that HSD falls under the category of “moderate” category of flammability index with Nf being 2. 7.5.4 Identification of Major Hazard Installations Based on MSIHC Rules 1989 and the Amended Rules in October ‘1994 Following accidents in industry in India over the past few decades a specific legislation covering a major hazard activity has been enforced by Govt. of India in 1989 in conjunction with Environment Protection Act, 1986. This is referred here as MSIHC Rules 1989. For the purpose of identifying major hazard installations the rules employ certain criteria based on toxic, flammable and explosive properties of chemicals. Besides a list of hazardous substances with their threshold quantities are provided in Part II of Schedule I of the rules Schedule II of the rules sets out the threshold quantities for isolated storage units M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 7.16 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka. Schedule III gives a list of hazardous chemicals with their threshold quantities. In this schedule different chemicals are classified into distinct groups viz. Group 1 Toxic substances, Group 2 -Toxic substances, Group 3 -Highly reactive substances, Group 4 -Explosive substances and Group 5-Flammable substances. Schedule IV of the rules indicate various operations which are hazardous during production, processing or treatment of organic and inorganic chemicals. A systematic analysis of fuels and their quantities of storage has been carried out, to determine threshold quantities as notified by MSIHC Rules 1989 and amended rules in 1994 and the applicable rules are identified. Indicative Criteria for Identification of Toxic, Flammable and Explosive Chemicals (MSIHC Rules 1989) is given in Table 7.4. Table 7.4 Indicative Criteria for Identification of Toxic, Flammable and Explosive Chemicals (MSIHC Rules 1989) a. Toxic Chemicals Chemicals having the following values of acute toxicity and which, owing to their physical and chemical properties, are capable of producing major accident hazards S. No. 1. Degree of Toxicity Medium lethal dose by the oral route (oral toxicity) LD 50 (mg/Kg body weight of test animals) Extremely 1-50 toxic 2. Highly 51-500 toxic b. Flammable Chemicals Medium lethal dose by the dermal route (dermal toxicity) LD 50(mg/Kg body weight of test animals) Medium lethal concentration by inhalation route (four hours) LC50 (mg/L inhalation in test animals) 1-200 0.1-0.5 201-2000 0.5-2.0 i.

This chapter deals with the question of how the consequences of the release of such substances and the damage to the surrounding area can be determined by means of models. A disastrous situation is generally due to outcome of fire, explosion or toxic hazards in addition to other natural causes, which eventually lead to loss of life, property and ecological imbalance. Major hazards posed by hazardous chemical storages can be identified taking recourse to MCA Analysis. MCA analysis encompasses certain techniques to identify the hazards and calculate the consequent effects in terms of damage distances of heat radiation, toxic releases, vapor cloud explosion, etc. A host of probable or potential accidents of the major units in the complex arising due to use, storage and handling of the hazardous materials are examined to establish their credibility. Depending upon the effective hazardous attributes and their impact on the event, the maximum effect on the surrounding environment and the respective damage caused can be assessed. Various models for calculating the physical effects of the incidental release of hazardous substances are detailed subsequently. First, attention is paid to the factors, which are decisive for the selection of the models to be used in a particular situation, after which the various effect models are discussed. 7.8 Injuries Resulting From Flammable Liquids In the case of flammable liquids such as HSD for immediate ignition of a pool fire will occur. The injuries in this case are mainly caused by heat radiation. Serious injuries as the result of the shock wave generally do not occur outside the fire ball zone. Fragmentation of the storage system can cause damage up to distance of over 50m depending on the capacity of the affected storage tank. If the gas is not ignited immediately, it will disperse into the atmosphere. If the gas cloud ignites it is assumed that everyone present within the gas cloud will die as a result of burns or asphyxiation. Outside the gas cloud the duration of the thermal load will be too brief to cause any injuries. In the event of very rapid combustion of the gas cloud the shock wave may cause damage outside the limits of the cloud. Explosive combustion will only occur if the cloud is enclosed to some extent between buildings and obstacles.

The capacities of HSD storage tanks are given in Table 7.5. The Health (Nh), Flammability (Nf), Reactivity (Nr), and MF (Material Factor) for all the materials under consideration was derived from NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) codes. The GPH (General Process Hazard Factor) and SPH (Specific Process Hazard Factor) was calculated accordingly. Based on F&EI (Fire and Explosion Index), the HSD fall under light degree of hazard category and nil toxicity. Thus Risk Assessment and Hazard analysis has been carried out due to fire hazard for HSD storage tanks by carrying out MCA (Maximum Credible Accident) analysis.

Geological and Hydro geological studies were conducted within the proposed sites to evaluate the hydro geological setting of the study area. The study is mainly oriented towards the topographical conditions, rainfall, existing natural drainage, planning of storm water drains, geological and geo morphological setting along with the proposal of suitable artificial recharge structures for improvement of ground water in and around the proposed industrial area. 7.10.2 Topography Topographically the proposed industrial area is representing an undulated terrain with well-developed natural drains at several locations. The land elevation is progressively increasing from site center to towards South and Northwest directions. There are two prominent uplands present within the site. These two uplands are located in the south and northwestern part of the site boundaries. It is understood from the topographical map of the site, that the southern upland is having a maximum elevation value of RL 764m. Similarly another upland located in the northwestern corner of the site is having maximum elevation value of RL 740m. A natural surface stream is passing across the industrial area, which is having a seasonal flow from southwest to northeast. The lowest elevation within the site is observed along this stream with a RL between 697 and 698m. The overall elevation difference from lowest to highest is about 68m.The detailed topographical map along with 1m contour interval is given in Figure 7.2. 7.10.3 Geology The soils present within the study area are dark reddish-brown to dark greyish-brown in color with silty-clay textures. These soils are derived from existing gneissic rocks. Red soils having high infiltration characteristics are confined to uplands, whereas, greyishbrown soils of poor to medium infiltration characteristics occurring near the existing surface streams and low lands. Below the soil cover the presence of basement rocks is observed. The rock formations are chiefly granites and gneisses of Archaean age. They are mainly belonging to Chitradurga group of Dharwar super group. The granites are in equi-granular, medium to course grained in nature. The surface layers of these rocks are highly weathered. Ingeneral the entire site area is representing low to moderate thickness of soil cover followed by the weathered rock. Few lineaments are identified within the site which is following the general pattern with the surrounding structures. The general direction of these lineaments is NE-SW. M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 7.25 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka. Figure 7.2 Contour map M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 7.26 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka. 7.10.4 Hydrogeology Geologically the proposed site and its surroundings are covered with Archaean crystalline formation comprising Chitradurga group of Dharwar supergroup. Ground water occurs in the open spaces of weathered fractured gneisses and granites. In these rocks the water bearing and yielding properties are primarily due to weathering and fracturing. Most of these rocks have poor capacity of storing and transmitting water, except through favorable zones and at favorable locations. Aquifer systems encountered are therefore limited in nature. Ground water occurs both in weathered and fractured zones. In the weathered zone, it occurs under water table conditions and in the fractured and jointed formations it occurs under semi-confined conditions. Water table generally follows the topography of the area and is at greater depths in the water divides and topographic highs, but becomes shallower in the valleys and topographic lows and therefore, groundwater moves down and follows the gradient from the higher to lower elevations, that is, from recharge area to discharge area. Therefore, locally direction of flow from higher elevations is towards the rivers. Overall, the general flow direction of ground water within the site will be from southern and north-western part to site center and further towards northeast. Due to over exploitation in many pockets, the weathered zone is getting dried up gradually. Semi confined to confined aquifer is formed due to fractures in hard formations at deeper depths. This aquifer system is developed by bore wells ranging in depth up to 100m. The wells are yielding moderate to poor yields. It is observed that the depth to ground water level during pre-monsoon is more than 20 m bgl and ranges from 18 to 20 m bgl during post monsoon. 7.10.5 Natural Drainage The drainage network of an area is principally governed by the topography of the land, whether a particular region is dominated by hard or soft rocks, and the gradient of the land. Since the study area is located on an upland area with respect to its surrounding environs, several first order streams originating at this location and forming the most common form of drainage system called dendritic system. All the existing drains are moving to the down streams and connecting to the nearest surface streams. There are several surface tanks existing around the industrial area. Most of them are minor tanks connected with the nearest surface streams as catchment. The detailed map of natural and storm water drainage system occurring within the industrial areas is given in Figure 7.3.

Environmental impacts of the proposed Development of Kittur Industrial Area have been thoroughly examined. Based on these impacts the mitigation measures and Environmental Management Plan (EMP) will be incorporated along with establishment of the proposed IA. Considering the positive environmental conditions as above the authorities can take decision to accord Environmental Clearance for the proposal. 8.6 Corporate Social Responsibility 8.6.1 Introduction Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), also known as Corporate Responsibility, Corporate Conscience, Corporate Citizenship, responsible business, Sustainable Responsible Business (SRB), or Corporate Social Performance, is a form of corporate self-regulation integrated into a business model. Ideally, CSR policy would function as a built-in, selfregulating mechanism whereby business would monitor and ensure its support to ethical standards and international norms. Consequently, business would adopt responsibility for the impact of its activities on the environment, consumers, employees, Communities, Stakeholders and all other members of the public sector. CSR focused businesses would proactively promote the public interest by encouraging community growth and development, and voluntarily eliminating practices that harm the public sector, regardless of legality. Public Corporations have legal responsibilities to maximize shareholder profits, but a shift in corporate mindset led by social expectations and pressure is causing business leaders to rethink their responsibilities with respect to corporate performance measured in terms of economic impact, Social Impact and environmental impact-commonly called the Triple Bottom Line. Essentially, CSR is the deliberate inclusion of public interest into corporate decision-making, and the honoring of a triple bottom line. Economic growth is possible only through consumption of inputs available in the environment and society. The harnessing of natural resources has a direct impact on the economy, the environment and society at large. CSR is a concept whereby organizations serve the interests of society by taking responsibility for the impact of their activities on customers, employees, shareholders, communities and the environment in all aspects of their operations. Thus CSR is a management’s commitment to operate in an economically, socially and environmentally sustainable manner, while recognizing the interests of its stakeholders. This commitment is beyond statutory requirements. CSR is, therefore, closely linked with the practice of sustainable Development. It extends beyond philanthropic activities and reaches out to the integration of social and business goals. These activities need to be M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 8.3 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka. seen as those which would, in the long term, help secure a sustainable competitive advantage. 8.6.2 Planning The planning for CSR starts with the identification of the activities/projects to be undertaken. CSR projects/activities may be undertaken in the periphery where project management carries out its commercial activities as far as possible. Where this is not possible or applicable, than project management may choose to locate CSR projects anywhere in the country. However, specific CSR strategies will be developed that mandate the design of CSR Action Plan (Long-term, medium-term and short-term), with a shift from the casual approach to the project based accountability approach. The business plan under CSR shall be integrated with the social and environment concerns related to the business of the proposed project. Selection of activities under CSR would be made to ensure that the benefits reach the smallest unit i.e Village, Panchayat, Block or District depending upon the operations and resource capability of the proposed project. The approach to CSR planning will be shifted from an ad-hoc charity to a long-term sustainable approach. The Project Management’s monitoring skills available would be shared as far as possible, with the local administration by training and setting up required structures and systems. The long-term CSR Plan will match with the long term Business Plan. This will be broken down into medium term and short term plans. Each of these plans will be clearly specified the following i) Requirements relating to baseline survey ii) Activities to be undertaken iii) Budgets allocated iv) Time-lines prescribed v) Responsibilities and authorities defined vi) Major results expected However, these plans shall also clearly specify the implementation guidelines and the involvement of the implementing agency. The procedures and methodologies prescribed for monitoring shall be highlighted as well as the modalities of the concurrent and final evaluation. Finally, there would be a clear specification will be provided regarding mandatory documentation of the experience. 8.6.3 Identification CSR initiatives will be considered in the following parameters for identifications/selection of schemes/projects as per the stipulated guidelines: i) Thrust will be given wherever possible to areas related to the business of the proposed project as a natural corollary to the business. ii) Investment in CSR would be project based. Mere donations to M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 8.4 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka. philanthropic/charity or other organizations would not come under the category of CSR. iii) CSR activities would generate community goodwill, create social impact and visibility. iv) For every project, the time-frame and periodic milestones would be finalized at the outset. v) CSR activities also involve the suppliers in order to ensure that the supply-chain also follows the CSR principles. vi) CSR activities help in building a positive image of the company in the public perception. vii) CSR projects may be closely linked with the principles of sustainable Development. Based on the immediate and long term social and environmental consequences of their activities. viii) Project management would take the shoulder responsibility for restoring/Compensating for any ecological damage that is taking place as a result of its operations. ix) Care will be taken to ensure that work towards fulfillment of the National Plan goals and objectives, as well as the Millennium Development Goals adopted by our country, ensure gender sensitivity, skill enhancement, entrepreneurship development and employment generations by co-creating value with local institutions/people. x) Project management will define their business continuity plan to factor in Hazards, risks and vulnerabilities. They would also create value in innovative social investments in the community and may focus on the areas of “Preparedness and Capacity Building” in Disaster Management (DM). xi) Public-Private Partnership between the Government and the Central Public Sector could also be encouraged to leverage the strengths of the latter in Disaster Management. Needs to network with the Ministries in Government of India/NDMA at the National Level and State Governments/SDMAs at the State Level to Strengthen and formalize their role in the DM process for ensuring preparedness of the communities towards disaster resilience. 8.6.4 Implementation and Funding During primary data collection in the study area it has been noticed that there are good number of unemployed local youth in the surrounding villages, an action plan will be proposed to train the local employable youth, so that after relevant training they will be employed in the proposed Development of Kittur Industrial Area based on the requirement of different stages. Financial help will be provided to local youth (tuition fees, hostel charges, books, examination fees, etc) of the study area in getting them trained in Industrial training institutes / centers, Polytechnics in various trades like Electricians, Plumbers, Fitters, M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 8.5 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka. driving, etc. An approximate amount of Rs. 1.5 Crores equivalent to 1% of the total project cost i.e., Rs.150 Crores is earmarked towards CSR Activities on annual basis.

Chapter 9 Environmental Management Plan 9.1 Introduction The proposed Development of Kittur Industrial Area needs to be intertwined with utilization of natural resources within the limits of permissible assimilative capacity. The Environmental Management Plan (EMP) is required to ensure sustainable development in the proposed Kittur Industrial Area. Hence, it needs proper Environmental Management Plan (EMP) to meet these objectives. The Environmental Management Plan is an action plan aiming to control pollution at the source level to the possible extent with the available and affordable technology followed by treatment measures before they are discharged. It encompasses the mitigation measures that are proposed in order to synchronize the economic development of the study area with the environmental protection of the region. 9.2 Environmental Management During Constructional Stage The impacts during the constructional Stage of the proposed Kittur Industrial Area on the environment would be basically of temporary in nature and are expected to reduce gradually on completion of the constructional activities. 9.2.1 Air Quality Mitigation Measures For the proposed Development of Kittur Industrial Area, levelling and grading will be carried out, where ever possible to maintain the natural elevations they will not be disturbed, only levelling activity will be carried out for providing roads, sewage network, storm water system, and places required for providing buildings for administrative, production/manufacturing plant and other utility erections. According to the engineering assessment; most of the excavated material shall be reused within the proposed Kittur Industrial Area. Most of the construction dust will be generated by the movement of carrying vehicles on unpaved roads. Unloading and loading of constructional materials shall also act as a potential source for dust nuisance. The control measures proposed to be taken up are given below. 1 Water sprinkling on main haul roads in the proposed development of IA will be done, this activity will be carried out at least twice a day, if need arises frequency will be increased on windy days, in this way around 50% reduction on the dust contribution from the exposed surface will be achieved. M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 9.1 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka. 2 The duration of stockpiling will be as short as possible as most of the material will be used as backfill material for the open cut trenches for road development. 3 Temporary tin sheets of sufficient height (3m) will be erected around the proposed construction site for the Development of Kittur Industrial Area as barrier for dust control. 4 Tree plantations around the proposed Kittur Industrial Area boundary will be initiated at the early stages by plantation of 2 to 3 years old samplings using drip irrigation so that the area will be moist for most part of the day. 5 All the vehicles carrying raw materials will be covered with tarpaulin / plastic sheet, unloading and loading activity will be stopped during windy period. 6 To reduce the dust movement from civil construction site to the neighbourhood the external part of the building will be covered by plastic sheets Given the implementation of proper control measures for dust suppression, no adverse impacts are expected and compliance with the Ambient Air Quality is achieved at ASR’s (Air pollution Sensitive Receivers) at all time. 9.2.2 Water Quality Mitigation Measures During the development of proposed Kittur Industrial Area necessary precautions will be taken, so that the runoff water from the proposed site gets collected to working pit and if any over flow is, will be diverted to nearby greenbelt / plantation area. At the time of construction in the proposed Development of Kittur Industrial Area, all the equipments washed water will be diverted to working pit to arrest the suspended solids if any and the settled water will be reused for constructional purposes, and for sprinkling on roads to control the dust emission, etc. The waste generated from the proposed project site work shop of Kittur Industrial Area, will be segregated like used oil, lubricants, etc and disposed to authorized recyclers the waste like soiled cotton, paper, etc will be disposed to municipal bins or sold out to the authorised agencies. The domestic wastewater generated from temporary toilets used by the work force will be treated through sewage treatment plant and reused. Therefore, impact on water quality due to the proposed Kittur Industrial Area would be insignificant. 9.2.3 Noise Mitigation Measures Noise generating equipment will be used during day time for brief period of its requirement. Proper enclosures will be used for reduction in noise levels, where ever M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 9.2 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka. possible the noise generating equipment will be kept away from the human habituation. Temporary thin sheets of sufficient height (3m) will be erected around the noise generating activity as barrier for minimizing the noise travel to surrounding areas. Therefore, impact on noise environment due to proposed Development of Kittur Industrial Area would be insignificant. All vehicles entering into the proposed site for the Development of Kittur Industrial Area will be informed to maintain speed limits, and not blow horns unless it is required. Personal protective equipment like earmuffs, helmets covering ears would be provided to the workers working near noise generating equipment and would see that workers use the protective gadgets regularly. 9.2.4 Solid Waste Mitigation Measures The solid waste generated during constructional period being predominantly inert in nature, construction and demolition waste does not create any chemical or biochemical pollution. However maximum effort would be made to reduce, reuse and recycle them. The most of the solid waste material will be used for filing/ levelling of low-lying areas. All attempts will be made to stick to the following measures. 1. All construction waste shall be stored within the proposed site for the Development of Kittur Industrial Area itself. A proper screen will be provided so that the waste does not get scattered. 2. Attempts will be made to keep the waste segregated into different heaps as far as possible so that their further gradation and reuse is facilitated. 3. Materials, which can be reused for purpose of construction, levelling, making roads/ pavement will also be kept in separate heaps from those which are to be sold or land filled. 4. The local body or a private company may be arranged to provide appropriate number of skip containers/ trolleys on hire. The use of the construction material basically depends on their separation and conditions of the separated material. A majority of these materials are durable and therefore, have a high potential for reuse. It would, however, be desirable to have quality standards for the recycled materials. Construction waste can be used in the following manner. 1. Reuse of bricks, tiles, stone slabs, timber, piping railings etc to the extent possible and depending upon their conditions. 2. Sale/ auction of materials which cannot be used at the proposed site for the Development of Kittur Industrial Area due to design constraint. 3. Plastics, broken glass, scrap metal, used cement bags, etc can be sold out to the authorised agencies. M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 9.3 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka. 4. Rubble/ brick bats can be used for building activity, such as levelling, under coat of lanes where the traffic does not constitute heavy moving loads. 5. Larger unusable pieces can be sent for filing up low lying areas. 6. Fine material such as sand, dust, etc can be used as cover material 7. The unearthed soil can be used for levelling as well as for lawn development 8. The broken pieces of the flooring material can be used for levelling in the building or can be disposed off 9. The unused or remaining paints/varnishes/wood can either be reused or can be disposed off to the authorised agencies. 9.2.5 Ecological Aspects For the proposed project site for the Development of Kittur Industrial Area, no major vegetation is present and hence there will not be any negative impact on the existing plantation. However, the proponent is going for plantation along the boundary during construction activity. A comprehensive green belt programme will improve the ecological condition of the region. 9.2.6 Site Security Adequate security arrangement would be made to ensure that the local inhabitants and the stray cattle are not exposed to the potential hazards of construction activities. 9.3 Management during Operational Stage Necessary control measures will be undertaken at the design stage to meet the statutory requirements and towards minimizing environmental impacts. The design basis for all member industries will lay special emphasis on measures to minimize the effluent generation and emission control at source. The specific control measures related to gaseous emissions, liquid effluent discharges, noise generation, solid waste disposal etc. are described below: 9.3.1 Air Quality Management a) Reduction of emissions at source To control the dust particulates from the stacks to meet the MOEF standards through appropriate air pollution control equipments are proposed. To control SO 2 and NOX emissions from DG set of member industries with sufficient height is proposed to meet the MOEF guidelines. b) Air pollution Control The main sources of air pollution from the proposed Development of Kittur Industrial Area are DG set& Boiler stack emissions. The Diesel Generator (DG) & Boilers are being proposed & operated by the member industries in the Development of Kittur Industrial M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 9.4 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka. Area. The appropriate capacity of DG set &Boiler are calculated for total IA and kept as backup power during power failure & emergency and other purposes. The air pollution control measures to be adopted are summarized in Table 9.1.

The majority source of SO2 emission will be due to due to DG set and boiler operations by the member industries. 9.3.2 Water and Wastewater Quality Management a) Water Management The source of water for the proposed Development of Kittur Industrial Area is Malaprabha River and Borewells. The major part of this water will be supplied to the M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 9.5 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka. member industries used for cooling purpose and the minor part of this water will be used for domestic requirement. b) Wastewater Generation It is necessary /recommended to install full-fledged treatment plant for treating the industrial effluents and sewage generated by the member industries & from common utilities in the proposed Development of Kittur Industrial Area. But all the upcoming member industries may be small and medium and not having their financial capacity to install full-fledged treatment plant, they are discharging their substandard effluent on land and due to that the problems ground water pollution in the said area may be created. Hence, it is necessary /recommended to install Common Effluent and Sewage Treatment Plants (CETP/CSTP) for treating the industrial effluents and sewage generated from such type of small and medium scale industries. A Common Effluent and Sewage Treatment Plants (CETP/CSTP) has been conceptualized and recommended for effective treatment and disposal of effluents from the proposed Development of Kittur Industrial Area to meet the statutory requirements for disposal and reuse. 9.3.3 Rain Water Harvesting and Storm Water Management All along the road network and along the boundary wall of the proposed Development of Kittur Industrial Area, storm water drains would be provided to collect water during rains. The storm water drain would be adequately sized to prevent flooding of the site, the storm water drains would contain check dams at appropriate distances to retain water for maximum in filtering of the rainwater into ground so that the aquifer can get maximum recharge. It is also proposed to have rainwater harvesting structures for recharge of roof top rainwater and rain water of paved surface at adjacent of respective buildings. Treatment for silt, oil & grease removal will be provided to rainwater harvesting recharging pit, the required quantity of the treated rainwater will be diverted into fresh water storage tank. The overflow from the harvesting pit and storm water of road / open space will be collected through road side storm water drains and left into natural drain. Under CSR activity to improve the recharging capacity of the aquifer greenbelt development and construction of check dams along the natural drains will be taken up. 9.4 Noise Level Management All the noise generating equipments in the Development of Kittur Industrial Area must be designed not to exceed the noise levels 85-90 dB (A) as per the OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) Standards. M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 9.6 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka. The equipments shall be provided with acoustic shields or enclosures to minimize the sound level inside the member industries of the proposed Development of Kittur Industrial Area. The greenbelt will be developed to prevent noise generation beyond the IA or boundary. The following measures are suggested to keep the noise levels within the permissible standards in member industries. Noise barriers will be placed around the stationary noise generating equipment of the proposed Development of Kittur Industrial Area and also along the side of moving objects All noise generating machines like pumps, compressors, etc shall be properly serviced and mounted on anti vibration pads to reduce the noise generation. The DG set shall be provided by Acoustic enclosure. Proper maintenance of transportation vehicles. In addition to this, the entire open area and in the proposed Development of Kittur Industrial Area boundary shall be provided with adequate green belt to minimize the noise levels. The proponents of member industries during operation of their plants would monitor the noise levels within and outside the plant on regular basis to attain national standards for air quality with respect to noise are strictly adhered to. Corrective action would be initiated immediately in case of any deviations are found during the course of monitoring. 9.5 Solid Waste Management The waste generated by the member industries / manufacturing units can be classified as Manufaturing Process Waste – May fall under the hazardous waste category Waste from Utilities such as ash, paper & plastic and other packing waste Pollution Control facilities- Primary ETP sludge etc., All the member industries coming up in the proposed Kittur Industrial Area, With respect to the category and type of waste, member industries will segregate and store the waste temporarly in an earn marked area, if required will utilize the services of the Common Hazardous Waste Management Facility (CHWMF) which is already existing near Dobaspet on NH 207. All the hazardous waste from member industries will be transported to CHWMF facility for treatment and for further safe disposal as per the statutory requirement and procedures. Safe storage and transportation of the produced solid and hazardous waste is the total responsibility of the member industry. M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 9.7 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka. Municipal Solid Waste would be collected and stored in an earn marked storage yard and further hand over to the authorized facility for treatment and disposal by the member industries & by the developer. 9.6 Green Belt Development In order to comply with the MoEF guidelines for greenbelt development within the proposed Development of Kittur Industrial Area, KIADB is planning to develop thick green belt of tall and evergreen plants 15m along the periphery and 2m along the roads within the individual industrial units of the Kittur Industrial Area and additional greenbelt will be developed under CSR activity in nearby open areas (Schools, gardens, along the roads, etc.). The width of the shelterbelt will vary in different areas depending on the availability of land. The greenbelt with a density of about 1000 plants per hectare will be developed. If the area is suitable, three storey or three tier plantations are also planned. KIADB will also instruct and make an agreement (MOU) with member industries to develop green belt @ 15% inside and along the periphery of the member industries. All plants are locally adapted and the present site can support their growth with suitable horticultural practices. Sufficient space, resources and man power for development and maintenance are provided in the plan. Green belt development is one of the most effective environmental pollution control measure. Trees play vital role in the environment in preventing the horizontal dispersion of the pollutants to the surrounding areas. They are very effective in trapping the pollution causing agents viz. dust and gaseous pollutants. They are also considered to be excellent indicators of excessive ground level concentrations. The green belt is being proposed for the following objectives. Mitigation of fugitive dust emissions Noise pollution control Prevention of soil erosion Balancing eco environment Aesthetics Apart from the bulk plantation in vacant areas, roadside avenue plantations, parks will also be taken up. The placement of the plants would be designed as follows: Trees growing up to 10 m or more in height with thick canopy cover and perennial foliage would be planted around the proposed Development of Kittur Industrial Area. M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 9.8 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka. Planting of trees would be done in rows with minimum three rows encircling perimeter of the installation. While planting the trees care would be taken that the installation structure would be difficult to see through foliage when seen from a point outside the green envelope. For preventing the horizontal dispersion of pollutants, if any, the trees planted in alternate rows would fall in straight line. Trees would be planted on roadside for containment of vehicular traffic emissions and fugitive emissions due to the movement of vehicles. Tree trunk being free foliage up to a height of 2 to 3 m, it is proposed to grow shrubs in front of trees so as to give coverage to the open portion. Sensitive species like Mangifera indica would be planted in patches along the entire green belt to work as an indicator of pollution potential. 9.7 Fire Protection Services Fire protection is one of the most essential services in the proposed Development of Kittur Industrial Area and Over Head Water Storage Tanks with a required storage capacity shall be constructed by the member industries of the proposed projects and maintain as a fire reservoir. All the member industries within the in the proposed Development of Kittur Industrial Area are expected to have their own unit/site specific fire protection system and the common fire protection system as additional backup and support required combating any eventualities due to fire accidents. In addition to this, a fire protection station is recommended with adequate fire protection personnel and other standard fire protection devices to attend to the fire calls from the industries within the estate. The fire fighting facilities listed above are planned for combating the emergency in the Development of Kittur Industrial Area. However during the allotment of lands/approvals for setting up of the units, the KIADB management shall follow the prospective unit/industry will comply with the guidelines laid down in the safety policy of the proposed Development of Kittur Industrial Area.

Wind Speed, Wind Direction, Temperature, and Relative Humidity were recorded on hourly basis during the study period. The climate of the study area is classified as warm, humid and tropical. For the Post monsoon season the winds were predominantly recorded from NE followed by E, SW and SE. Calm conditions prevailed for 12.04 % of the total time and the average wind speed for the season i.e. September to November 2013 is 2.46 m/sec. The average maximum temperature is 36.60C and minimum is 14.10C. The Humidity is highest in the month of August at 93 %. 10.8.2 Air Quality Ambient air quality in the study area has been assessed through a network of 15 Ambient Air Quality Monitoring Stations fixed using screening models within 10km radius keeping in view the Topographical and Meteorological conditions. The monitoring has been performed for one season. Different air pollutants namely Respirable Particulate Matter (PM<2.5µm, PM<10µm), sulphur dioxide (SO2), oxides of nitrogen (NOx) and Ozone (O3) were sampled on 24 hourly as per MoEF guidelines and results are compared with the standards stipulated by CPCB. M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 10.7 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka. The 98th percentile of Particulate Matter <2.5µm recorded within the study area were in the range of 13.7 to 21.7 µg/m3. The 98th percentile of Particulate Matter <10µm recorded within the study area were in the range of 44.4 to 56.6 µg/m3. The 98th percentile of SO2 recorded within the study area was in the range of 12.7 to 18.1 µg/m3. The 98th percentile of NOx recorded within the study area was in the range of 15.5 to 21.8 µg/m3. The 98th percentile of O3 recorded within the study area was in the range of 14.9 to 20.1µg/m3. The observed air pollutants were within the limits as per NAAQ standards. 10.8.3 Water Quality Status About 14 ground and 4 surface water samples were collected from the study area to assess the water quality during the study period. The ground water samples were drawn from the hand pumps and open wells being used by the villagers for their domestic needs. Surface water sampling was carried out from major tanks / ponds within 10km of the proposed project site. Ground Water The pH was varying from 6.91 to 7.89, indicating that they are in acceptable limits. TDS are varying from 364 mg/l to 1592 mg/l, indicating that they are above the acceptable limit but within the permissible limit. Chloride levels are ranging from 83 mg/l to a maximum of 404 mg/l. All are within the permissible limits. Hardness is varying from 135 mg/l to 744 mg/l. One sample is above the permissible limit and remaining all samples are within the permissible limit. The fluoride values are in the range of 0.6 mg/l to 1.13 mg/l indicating all samples are within the permissible limits Surface Water pH was varying between 7.52 to 7.92. The total dissolved solids were in the range of 168 mg/l to 296 mg/l The chlorides were in the range of 49 mg/l to 59 mg/l The hardness is varying between 68 mg/l to 138 mg/l. Fluoride content was in range of 0.31 mg/l to 0.42 mg/l M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 10.8 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka. Overall all the samples collected from the study area were found to be fit for human consumption, however the hardness, dissolved solids in most of ground water samples seem to be above acceptable limits but well within the permissible limits. 10.8.4 Noise Quality Baseline noise levels have been monitored at 15 locations within the study zone, using a continuous noise measurement device. The day levels of noise have been monitored during 6 AM to 10 PM and the night levels during 10 PM to 6 AM. The day equivalents during the study period are ranging between 52.5 to 63.4dB (A) whereas the night equivalents were in the range of 41.2 to 49 dB (A). From the results it can be seen that the Day equivalents and the Night equivalents were within the Ambient Noise standards of residential areas standards. 10.8.5 Soil Quality The area in particular is generally red sandy with patches of silty loam and red loamy soils. For studying the soil types and soil characteristics, 15 sampling locations were selected to assess the existing soil conditions representing various land use and geological features. Homogenized soil samples collected at different locations were packed in a polyethylene plastic bag, sealed and sent to laboratory for analysis. The important physical, chemical parameter concentrations were determined from all samples. pH values in the study area are varying from 6.59 to 8.08indicating that the soils are falling in normal to saline class. Electrical conductivity in the study area is varying from 266 to 335 µMho/cm indicating that the soils are falling under Normal category and do not indicate any hazard to soil, agricultutre and ecological balance. The Organic Carbon in the study area is varying from 0.15 – 0.28 % that indicating low range of organic carbon. Available Nitrogen as N in the study area is varying from 132 to 163 kg/ha indicating soils of medium category. Available Phosphorus is varying from 5 to 14 kg/ha, which indicates that 4 samples are falling in low range and 11 samples are in medium range. Available Potassium in the study area is varying between 31 to 75 kg/ha which indicates that all samples are falling in low range. 10.8.6 Flora & Fauna Ecological survey covering an area of 10km radius from the proposed project boundary was done for generation of primary data to understand baseline ecological status, important M/s Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd, Hyderabad 10.9 EIA Report for the Proposed Industrial Area, Kittur Village, Bailhongal Taluk, Belgaum District, Karnataka. floristic elements, fauna structure and collection of secondary data from Forest Working Plan and Gazetteers. The study area is abundantly occupied by trees apart from agroforestry types and commercial plantations such as Tamarindus indica, Terminalia chebula, Eucalyptus sp, carisa carandus, Butea monosperma and terminalia tomentos. Near village’s agriculture land, along village roads, state highways and major district roads Eucalyptus species, Dalbergia sisso, Acacia auriculoformis are predominant. Primary survey revealed a total of 89 species of plants of which most were phanerophytes and 4 were therophytes. The common crops in the study area are saccharum officinarum, oryza sativa, Triticum diococcum, Pennisitum glacaum, zia mays which are mainly depend on rainwater and tube well, borewell in non monsoon season. There is no national park, wildlife sanctuary, biosphere reserve within 10km of the study area. As per Wildlife Protection Act 1972, there is only one schedule-I species observed in buffer zone i.e. Monitor Lizard (Varanus bengalensis). No critically endangered, endangered, threatened or rare species of wildlife in the core and buffer zone. 10.8.7 Socio Economics Sample survey was done to collect qualitative information about the socio economic environment of the area. The Study area (10km radius of the proposed Development of Kittur Industrial Area) is mostly inhabited by economically weaker section people. Lack of amenities such as roads, drinking water, dwellings, lavatories, education, employment, medical and electricity facilities was evident during the site visit. Though agriculture is the main occupation, in the studied villages it has provided employment opportunities to only 50-60% of the families. The remaining population is depending on the other type of employment opportunities mainly as laborers. 10.9 Anticipated Environmental Impacts and Mitigation Measures 10.9.1 Impact on Air Quality The SO2 and NOX are major air pollutant generated from the proposed development of IA. However, SO2 and NOX emissions are anticipated during the usage of DG sets & Boilers. The Predicted maximum Ground level concentration of 24 Hour average of SO 2, and NOX concentrations considering 24 hour mean meteorological data of study season are superimposed on the maximum baseline concentrations obtained during the study period to estimate the post project scenario, which would prevail at the post operational phase. Stack emission details & predictions are shown in the following Table 10.5 and Table 10.6.

Furthermore, during windy days, the frequency of the water sprinkling will be increased. The vehicular movement will be minimized, with a planned scheduling, to reduce the emission of pollutants. Temporary thin sheets of sufficient height (3m) will be erected around the proposed site for development of Kittur Industrial Area as a barrier for dust control. The excavated material shall be reused within the boundary from the Kittur Industrial Area and the movement of cut and fill material will be limited. Plantation of trees around the proposed boundary of Kittur Industrial Area and it will be initiated at the early stages by plantation of 2 to 3 years old saplings using drip irrigation so that the area will be moist for most part of the day. All the vehicles carrying raw materials will be covered with tarpaulin/plastic sheet; unloading and loading activity will be stopped during windy period. To control SO2 and NOX emissions from DG sets & Boilers stacks with sufficient height will be proposed to meet the MOEF guidelines. 10.9.2 Impact on water quality The main source of water for the proposed project is Malaprabha River.
