    Before the project proponent made presentation on the compliance, a representationwas received from M/s Ravi Mittal & Associates on behalf of the petitioner in writ petitionno. 1486 of 2009. The points made in the representation were kept in view whileassessing the compliance reported by the project proponent.

    The project proponent explained the compliance done in respect of the points raised in

    the last meeting. The main points made by them are: (i) two pending court cases(including writ petition no. 1486 of 2009) have been either dismissed or withdrawn. (ii) Alay out plan showing the existing and proposed buildings along with amenities and RGarea (which comes to 25% of the plot area) was submitted. RG area will be kept open asper provisions of DC rules and will not be paved. (iii) A plan indicating parkingarrangement for 351 parking spaces (consisting of 69 in stilt, 180 in open area and 102in the parking building) was submitted. It was also indicated that total number of parkingspaces for buildings 1 and 2 would be 158 (26 existing and 132 open parking). (iii) STPshall be provided with recycling facility to take care of the flushing and gardening for thecomplex. (iv) Consents from all members of buildings A and B were obtained for theexpansion of the project and copies furnished. (iv) A diesel generator set was alreadyprovided for building no. 2 (called tower B) and one has just been procured for building

    no. 1 (tower A). (v) It was indicated in the meeting that facilities like swimming pool, clubhouse, childrens play house and other amenities as required under municipalregulations would be provided to occupants of all buildings including buildings nos. 1 and2. (vi) A reverse osmosis plant with capacity of 1000 litres per hour will be installed at thesite. (vii) On completion of the buildings, all amenities including swimming pool andclubhouse will be handed over to the apex committee of the societies of the fourbuildings. All ownership/management rights will be transferred to the apex committee.(viii) In respect of the glass parapets provided as a decorative feature, preventivemeasures (to prevent accidents) will be taken by providing grill.

    It was decided to recommend the proposal for grant of prior environmental clearancesubject to the project proponent complying with the following:

    (i) The drawings submitted are not to scale. Fresh drawings to scale may besubmitted.

    (ii) Regarding the parking plan submitted, some of the parking spaces are so closeto the buildings and would obstruct fire tender movement and operations. These need tobe relocated. As also the parking spaces in the north west corner need to be relocatedto allow unobstructed movement of cars. A revised parking plan incorporating thesechanges and showing the parking spaces of each of the buildings and for visitors inseparate colours may be submitted.

    (iii) Internal roads may be shown in a map in distinct colours with dimensions, side

    gutters, tree plantations etc.

    (iv) The project proponent should give an undertaking that till the parking building isapproved and completed fully, no possession will be given to occupy any constructionbeyond 9th floor in building no. 6, as it was indicated by the project proponent that theparking area in that buildng is not more than that required by the future occupants of thefloors above 9thfloor.

    (v) One STP will be provided for the buildings nos. 1 and 2 and a separate STP forthe other two buildings. The excess treated effluent from the STPs (after meeting therequirements for flushing in all the buildings and gardening) will be fully utilized forirrigating the lawns and other green areas of the adjoining Joggers park of MCGM, atleast till the sewer line is extended to the area covering the plot. The concurrence ofMCGM for such use may be obtained and copy furnished.

    (vi) EMP may also include provision of a laboratory with trained manpower andequipment for day to day monitoring of the quality of water and effluent.

    Item No.2 (Originally considered in the 17th meeting held in October 2009 andrecommended for grant of prior EC; subsequently referred back by SEIAA andconsidered by the Committee in the 32ndmeeting).

    Project proponent: M/s Raj EnterprisesIName of the project and location: Residential project at village Bolinj, Taluka Vasai,

    District Thane - Classified under 8(a) Category B2.

    Brief details of the project (as per the proposal):

    Total plot area: 3.54 hectare. Proposed built-up area: 25,720 sq. m. No. of buildings: 11(3 buildings with 7 floors; 6 buildings with 6 floors, 1 building with 3 floors and 1 buildingwith one floor, apart from ground floor in all cases). Residential units: 628. Commercialunits: 136. Parking: 82 cars and 400 two wheelers.

    Decision: The proposal was initially recommend for grant of prior environmentalclearance subject to the condition that the project proponent should furnish a mapindicating the location of the sewer line of CIDCO near the plot and also the consent of

    CIDCO to accept treated effluent from the project in their sewer (as there was no othersewer line in the area). When the matter was considered by SEIAA in its 23rdmeeting,the project proponent stated that zero discharge was not possible as the CIDCO sewerline was not available as the project proponent had earlier proposed. SEIAA thendecided to refer back the case to SEAC to reappraise the project.

    In the 32ndmeeting, the project proponent stated that they would enter into agreementswith farmers for use of the treated effluent. The Committee did not find this acceptable;if farmers later do not accept the treated effluent, particularly during monsoon, theproject proponent would have to discharge the treated effluent to water bodies. Afterdiscussion, the project proponent agreed to recast their proposal restricting it to the flatsalready constructed, keeping about 2-3 hectares of land vacant for horticulture and

    greening so that excess treated effluent can be fully used there. They will also constructtwo interconnected ponds with capacity equal to one months surplus treated effluent.They were advised to approach the Committee when the recast proposal was ready.

    In todays meeting the project proponent confirmed seeking EC for the existing sevenbuildings covering 405 flats with a plinth area of 4,107 sq.m. As a result, 2.71 hectaresof land will become available for gardening, where the surplus treated water can be usedfor irrigation. The daily quantity of excess treated effluent would be 112.4 cu.m. whichwill suffice to irrigate 2.24 hectares. The capacity of the two ponds will be 3,375 cu.m.

    It was decided to recommend the revised proposal (phase I in respect of existing sevenbuildings with 405 flats) for grant of prior environmental clearance subject to thefollowing:

    (i) The project proponent should furnish forms I and Ia and revised drawings in

    respect of phase I.

    (ii) The surplus treated water in the ponds should be sufficiently aerated.

    (iii) Adequate care should be taken to ensure that there is no possibility for stormwater to get mixed up with the treated effluent stored in ponds.

    (iv) The project proponent should give an undertaking that no effluent will bedischarged from the project area into any Nala or other water bodies.

    Item No.3 (Originally considered in the 31st meeting held in July 2009 and againconsidered in the 32ndmeeting).

    Project proponent: M/s Adhiraj Construction Pvt Ltd.

    Consultant :M/s Fine Envirotech Engineers Pvt Ltd., Mahim, Mumbai.

    Name of the project and location: Residential Township Project Adhiraj Upscale atRohinjan, Near Panvel, District Raigad - Classified under 8(b) Category B1.

    Brief details of the project (as per the proposal):

    Total plot area: 1,14,700 sq.m. Net plot area: 1,09,309 sq.m. FSI built up area: 4,34,038sq.m. (3,01,492 sq.m. for sale housing + 1,09,320 sq.m for rental housing + 23,226 forcommercial). Total non-FSI area: 3,37,622 sq.m. (including 2,01,862 sq.m for parking).No. of buildings for sale: 25 buildings (19 with 45 floors, 2 with 40 floors, 2 with 30 floorsand 2 with 15 floors). No. of sale units: 4,612; rental units: 5,466. Total parking spacesproposed: 3,750. Total green cover area: 37,351 sq.m. No. of trees to be planted: 1,149.

    Decision: In the first meeting it was found that the proposal involved construction ofthree podia of huge area (over 5 hectares at each level), which would not be desirablefrom the environmental point of view. The project proponent was then requested torecast the project by significantly reducing the area under podium and then approach the

    committee for further consideration of their proposal. In the 32nd

    meeting the projectproponent expressed inability to accept the suggestion of the SEAC to reduce thenumber and area of the podia and tried to justify the podia in preference to basements.The Committee noted that it had not specifically suggested taking up of two basementsand there are other alternatives like ground parking which could be considered. It waspointed out that the DC rules also permitted only one small podium and not large multi-tired podia. The proponent was once again given an opportunity to recast the proposal.

    Item No.5(Originally considered in the 30thmeeting held in July 2010).

    Project proponent:M/s DB Group DB Realty Ltd.

    Consultant:M/s Mahabal Enviro Engineers Pvt Ltd.

    Name of the project and location: Construction of residential building Orchid EnclaveIII Rehabilitation Building and MCGM Parking Lot on plot bearing CS No. 241, 242and 243 of Tardeo Division, D Ward, Mumbai - Classified under 8(b) Category B1.

    Brief details of the project (as per the proposal):

    Plot area: 25,648 sq.m. Proposed FSI area: 37,368 sq.m. Non-FSI area: 62,165 sq.m.MGM parking lot area: 59,875 sq.m. Total built up area: 1,61,405 sq.m. MCGM parkinglot: 3B+G+1 to 7 (part) podium; Rehabilitation portion: 7 (part) to 8 podium + S + 34floors with 120 tenements. Sale portion: 9 to 13 podium + S + 72 floors with 189

    tenements. Area for landscape development: 3,847 sq.m. No. of trees to be planted:190. No. of parking spaces to be provided in MCGM parking lot: 836 (210 LCVs plus626 LMVs). Captive parking spaces to be provided in sale portion: 514. Parking areaper car: 37.54 sq.m. Captive parking spaces to be provided in rehabilitation portion:114. Parking area per car: 34.35 sq.m.

    Decision: In the last meeting, it was observed that the proposal involved construction ofover 1,61,405 sq.m on a part of the plot of effective area slightly over 6,000 sq.m. Thismeant construction of 25 to 26 times of the plot size and the project proponent wasrequested to revise the proposal to reduce the total construction substantially. Whiledoing so, they were also requested to furnish the actual calculation of additional FSIavailable on account of providing municipal parking and the resulting cap on FSI in

    accordance with the provisions of the annexure to the GR relating to the MunicipalParking Scheme, based on the location of the plot.

    In their response, the project proponent pointed out that comparison of the constructionarea with only a portion of the plot on which construction is now proposed would give askewed picture. The total area of the plot is 25,648 sq.m. The foot print of the existingfour residential buildings is 1,273 sq.m, that of existing commercial & residential buildingis 8,953 sq.m., while that of the proposed Orchid Enclave III is 6,064 sq.m., giving aground coverage of 63.51%. Further, because of physical limitations on the plot they areable to construct 59,875 sq.m. only for MCGM parking and as a result they are able toconsume only 1.167 as against the balance permissible FSI of 1.5. The basis ofcalculation of additional FSI has been furnished. In a letter given on 20thOctober, 2010,

    the project proponent has indicated that after review they have decided to reduce onepodium out of the parking area proposed for the sale and rehabilitation portion (nowthere will be 12 podiums instead of 13 proposed earlier; podiums 1 to 7(p) will be usedfor municipal parking and 7(p) to 12 for parking of sale and rehabilitation parking). Withthis, per car parking area for sale and rehabilitation portion will come to 30.72 sq.m. As aresult of this change, the total construction area will come down from 1,61,405 sq.m. to1,55,960 sq.m. The total construction area of existing five residential buildings and onecommercial building is 1,17,228 sq.m. Thus the total construction on the whole plot ofarea 25,648 sq.m. will be 2,73,188 sq.m.. (10.65 times the plot area).

    It was decided to recommend the proposal for grant of prior environmental clearancesubject to the project proponent furnishing revised drawings and area statementsincorporating the changes indicated above.

    Item No.6 (Originally considered in the 22nd meeting held in January 2010 andrecommended for rejection in the 27thmeeting; later referred back by SEIAA).

    Project proponent: Chalama Infraproperties Pvt Ltd.

    Consultant:M/s Mahabal Enviro Engineers Pvt Ltd. Thane (W).

    Name of the project and location: Residential cum Commercial project at VillageSheel, Taluka Thane, District Thane - Classified under 8(b) Category B1.

    Brief details of the project (as per the proposal):

    Plot area: 80,910 sq.m. Built up area: 1,55,756 sq.m. (1,53,726 sq.m under residentialand 2,030 sq.m under commercial). No. of buildings: 26 (ST + 7 to 22 floors). No. ofresidential flats: 2,211. No. of shops: 40.

    Decision:In the first meeting the project proponent was requested to comply with points

    relating to (i) confirmation from TMC regarding status of sewer line in the area; (ii)confirmation from TMC regarding availability of water for the project; (iii) lay out of STP;and (iv) detailed FSI statement. While compliance was done in respect of the points (ii)to (iv), the reply given in respect of the point no. (i) was not satisfactory. The Committeeconsidered the matter and came to the conclusion that it would not be possible torecommend the proposal involving construction of over 2,200 flats, when there is no

    certainty regarding TMC sewer line being constructed in the area. It was, therefore,decided to recommend rejection of the proposal for grant of prior environmentalclearance. It was indicated that the case could be reopened after extension of the TMCsewer line to the site of the project was sanctioned by TMC and the work on it started.

    The matter was considered by the SEIAA in its 28thmeeting. The Authority agreed withthe decision of this Committee that proper sewer line should be ensured in the location.Taking into account the representation of the project proponent, the Authority decided torefer the case back to this Committee with request to invite TMC officers for the meetingto obtain a time bound programme for the sewer line.

    The project proponent attended the meeting with an official (Deputy Engineer) of TMC.

    The official gave the impression that the work for laying the sewer line covering theproject area was likely to be awarded by December 2010. The project proponent andthe TMC official were requested to send a confirmatory letter from TMC indicating a firmdate for the completion of the project. The letter received from the City Engineer, TMCgives a picture different from that indicated by the TMC official in the meeting. The letterhas indicated that they have appointed a consultant for preparation of DPR for theextension of the sewer line covering the project area, that the DPR will be ready in ayears time and that the physical work will be taken up thereafter.

    As indicated earlier, it would not be advisable to approve construction of over 2200 flats,when the DPR for the sewerage project itself will be completed only after a year andtherefore it is not possible now to obtain a time bound programme for the completion ofthe project. Even assuming that the housing project in question will take some time toget completed, there is no certainty that the sewer line will be in place before thisconstruction is over. The Committee, therefore, decided that it would not be proper to

    recommend EC for the whole project at this stage. If the project proponent is willing totake up a part of the project (say, not exceeding about 700 flats) and is able to leaveabout 4 to 5 hectares of the plot vacant (so that it can be used for plantation andhorticulture to consume the excess treated effluent, should that become necessary),grant of EC for that portion could be considered at this stage. EC for the remainingportion can be considered, as and when work on the sewerage project is taken up. Ifthis suggestion is acceptable to the project proponent, he may approach the Committeewith a recast proposal for phase I as indicated above.

    Item No.7 (Originally considered in the 21st meeting held in January 2010).

    Project proponent: Raghuleela Leasing & Real Estates Pvt Ltd.

    Name of the project and location: Construction of commercial/office building projectThe Capital at BKC, Bandra, Mumbai.

    Brief details of the project (as per the proposal):

    Plot area: 7,107 sq.m. Total built-up area: 1,03,379 sq.m. Parking to be provided: 937

    Decision: In this case, the project proponent had earlier obtained EC for a built up areaof 55,481sq.m. Later they approached the Committee seeking fresh environmental

    clearance stating that MMRDA has sanctioned additional FSI (based on global FSI) andas a result the total construction would go up to 1,03,379 sq.m. It was then indicated tothe project proponent that the Committee was not in a position to recommend theproposal which involved construction of about 15 times the plot size, as it would not bepossible to meet the minimum environmental requirements.

    While doing so, the Committee separately took up with the Environment Department,Government of Maharashtra the general issue of Global FSI, under which MMRDA hasbeen sanctioning very high FSI for individual projects. In the above case, the total FSIsanctioned came to 11.80, with total construction area about 15 times the plot area. Itwas pointed out in the note that it would not just be possible to meet the variousenvironmental norms even at a highly reduced level. Such a project can add

    considerable stain on various environmental parameters, like open areas, green area,parking, traffic etc. which are already under tremendous pressure. It was stated that inmany of the building projects, it was difficult to provide an open space of even onesquare metre per person, far below what is regarded as a desirable minimum. As per theabove proposal, the open space available for a population of 9400 is less than 1000sq.metre (just about 0.1 sq.m!). The argument that this was based on a global FSI wouldnot minimize the excess strain on a particular plot. The Department of Environment wasrequested to take up the matter with the Urban Development Department. So far, noreply has been received from the Environment Department.

    The project proponent has again approached the Committee, since their case was notformally recommended for rejection. They are not willing to change the scope of theirproject in any manner. Since the Committee has not received any reply from theDepartment of Environment on the policy issue referred to above, the Committee is notin a position to take any action other than recommending the proposal for rejection of the

    request for EC. Accordingly, the Committee decided to recommend the proposal forrejection.

    It is still requested that the matter may be taken up with the Urban DevelopmentDepartment to either discontinue the scheme of global FSI or if at all it has to beretained, to provide a reasonable cap on the maximum FSI permissible for a plot and/ortotal construction which can be taken up as a multiple of the plot area.

    Item No.8 (Originally considered in the 13th meeting held in July 2009).

    Project proponent: Ramnath Developers Pvt Ltd.

    Consultant:M/s Earthcare Labs Private Ltd., Nagpur.

    Brief description of the project: Proposed mini-residential township project atRamnath City at Koradi, Nagpur - Classified under 8(a) Category B2.

    Brief details of the project (as per the proposal):

    Plot area: 8.05 hectares. Built up area: 60,739 sq.m, Proposed ground coverage:19.2%. Amenity space: 12,344 sq.m. Open space: 8,164 sq.m. No. of parking spacesproposed: 579. Green belt area: 20,930 sq.m.

    Decision: It was found that since the area was outside the municipal limits, there wasno sewer line to which the excess treated effluent could be discharged. The projectproponent indicated that the project area would eventually be included in the municipalarea, though one cannot be certain as to how long it would take. It was indicated to theproject proponent that it would not be possible to consider the project in the presentform. If the project proponent is willing to take up phase I of the project covering a builtup area of around 25,000 sq.m. leaving at least 4 to 5 hectares of land vacant (so thatthe excess treated effluent could be utilized for taking up horticulture and other greeningwork on it), the proposal may be recast accordingly. Two or three interconnected andsufficiently aerated ponds with a holding capacity equal to the volume of surplus effluentfor a month will also have to be constructed.

    Item No.9 (Originally considered in the 29thmeeting held in June 2010 and again in the33rdmeeting)

    Project proponent: M/s DB Group Neelkamal Realtors & Builders Pvt Ltd.

    Consultant:M/s Mahabal Enviro Engineers Pvt Ltd, Thane (W).

    Name of the project and location: Proposed construction of residential buildingOrchid Park at RS Nimkar Marg, Shuklaji Street, Bachustwadi, Mumbai Central,Mumbai - classified under 8(a) category B2.

    Brief details of the project (as per the proposal):

    Plot area: 14,771 sq.m. Built up area (FSI) for sale building: 34,528 sq.m. Totalconstruction area for sale building (including non-FSI): 85,597 sq.m. No. of buildings:one (2B+G+2P+St+67) with 260 tenements. Built up area for rehabilitation building;24,441 sq.m. Total construction area for rehabilitation building (including non-FSI);39,175 sq.m. No. of buildings: one (2B+St+31 floors) with 692 tenements. Totalconstruction area for MCGM parking: 30,628 sq.m. No. of buildings: one (G+11 floors).Ground coverage: 41.4%. No. of parking spaces proposed to be provided: 324 for salebuilding; 108 for rehabilitation building and 350 for MCGM

    Decision: This is a combined redevelopment of old existing building on the plot underDC rules 33(7) and MCGB public parking under DC rules 33(9). In both the last meetingsit was pointed out to the project proponent that the consent of at least 70% of the

    occupants was required before the project under 33(7) is taken up and that Governmentapproval under 33(9) should be produced. It was made abundantly clear that unlessthere was compliance on these two issues, it would not be possible to proceed with theappraisal of the project. Despite giving two opportunities, the project proponent hascome back without any progress on these issues and so it was decided to recommendrejection of the proposal for grant of prior environmental clearance.

    Item No.11 (Originally considered in the 12thmeeting held in May 2009).

    Project proponent: MHADA, Mumbai

    Consultant: M/s Fine Envirotech Engineers, Mumbai.

    Name of the project and location: Mass Housing Project at Sion, Mumbai - Classifiedunder 8(a) Category B2.

    Brief details of the project (as per the proposal):

    Area of the plot (including buildings constructed from 2001 onwards): 1,10,338 sq.m. RGarea:15,490 sq.m. Total proposed area of construction: 1,26,080 sq.m. Transit camps:22 wings of G+4 type. MIG and HIG tenements: 46 wings of S+7 type. LIG tenements:20 wings G+7 type (Total 88 wings and 3313 tenements).

    Decision: .The project proponent has generally complied with the various points raisedin the first meeting as well as after the site inspection on 2ndDecember 2009. It was,therefore, decided to recommend the proposal for grant of environmental clearance.However, as observed during the site inspection, all except five (out of the 88) buildingswere practically completed and many were occupied; even out of the five buildings, fourbuildings were under construction. The Department of Environment may, therefore,consider initiating appropriate action for taking up construction of the buildings withoutprior environmental clearance. The Department may also take up with MCGM the issueof grant of occupancy certificates for many completed buildings in the absence of EC.

    Item No.12 (Originally considered and recommended for rejection in the 25thmeetingheld in March 2010; subsequently referred back to the Committee by SEIAA as decidedin their 28thmeeting).

    Project proponent:M/s Dream Constructions Pvt. Ltd.

    Name of the project and location: Dreams Nivara Affordable Housing Scheme atKoregaon Mul, Taluka Haveli, District Pune - Classified under 8(a) Category B2.

    Brief details of the project (as per the proposal):

    Plot area: 1,05,450 sq.m. (64,350 sq.m in phase I and 41,100 sq.m. in phase II). Totalbuilt up area: 79,941 sq.m. (of which under FSI is 64,654 sq.m, consisting of 38,708sq.m in phase I and 25,946 sq.m in phase II). No. of buildings: 40. No. of flats: 1,808(1232 in phase I and 576 in phase II). No. of parking spaces proposed: 718 four-

    wheelers, 449 two-wheelers and 449 cycles (of which 413, 258 and 258 respectively arein phase I). Green area: 28,352 sq.m. No. of trees to be planted:1,116.

    Decision: In the 25thmeeting the case was recommended for rejection, as there was nosatisfactory proposal for utilization of the surplus treated water, since the project waslocated outside the municipal limits without any sewer line. The matter was consideredby SEIAA in its 28thmeeting. The Authority decided to refer back the proposal to thisCommittee based on the assurance of the project proponent to (i) provide STP; (ii)maintain zero discharge from the project and make necessary plantation to recycle thetreated water to full extent; and (iii) be ready to meet the expenses incurred forextending existing drainage line.

    The proposals made by the project proponent in todays meeting were quite vague. Theproposal to put up STP was already there. The earlier decision to recommend decisionwas not based on the issue of putting up STP, but on the question of satisfactory meansof utilizing the excess effluent coming out of the STP after treatment. Despite theassurance made by the project proponent before the SEIAA for taking up necessaryplantation to ensure zero discharge, no concrete proposal has been made in this regard.The other assurance to meet the expenses to be incurred for extending existingdrainage line is not clear. The project site is quite a distance away from the municipallimits. If what the project proponents means is meeting the expenses connected withextending the drainage line of the Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) to the project site,the relevant questions are: (i) Is PMC willing to accept the treated effluent from theproject in their sewer lines, even if the project proponent is willing to meet the cost of

    extending the drainage line? (ii) What is the distance from the project site to the nearestsewer line of PMC and has the cost of extending the drainage line to this extent beenworked out and can the project proponent really afford it? (iii) If the drainage line is to beso extended, what about the concurrence of the landholders through whose land suchextended drainage line will pass? This option can, therefore, be considered by theCommittee, only if the project proponent can furnish satisfactory answers to thesequestions.

    Alternatively, if the project proponent can scale down the first phase of the project toabout 400-500 tenements and if he is able to leave 5-6 hectares of land completelyvacant for taking up horticulture and other plantation and also to construct two or moreinterconnected and suitably aerated ponds with a capacity equal to the surplus treatedeffluent for about 30 days, the same can be considered. If the project proponent iswilling to examine this alternative, the proposal may be suitably recast and the

    Committee may be approached.

    Name of the project and location: Residential township at S.No. 942, Village Mahim,Taluka Palghar, District Thane classified under 8(b) category B1.

    Brief details of the project (as per the proposal):

    Total land: 6,83,910 sq.m. Total construction area: 6,66,703 sq.m. Total no.oftenements: 15,478. Land for phase I: 3,92,050 sq.m. Total construction area for phase I:3,98,047 sq.m. (of which FSI area is 3,33,193 sq.m.). No. of buildings for phase I: 158(G+4). No. of tenements for phase I: 9610. No. of shops in phase I: 1140. Parkingspaces proposed for phase I: 1,889.

    Decision: It was noted that there are major problems with this ambitious proposal (evenrestricting to the so-called phase I, consisting of 17 sectors) mainly relating to theavailability of water and means of disposal of treated effluent.

    The project proponent has presented a copy of the letter from the Village Panchayatstating that water would be made available from the MJP Scheme as and when it would

    be implemented. The requirement of fresh water for phase I is 2.96 MLD. The projectproponent should contact MJP and get firm commitment on the following: (i) whetherthey would be in a position to meet the requirement of such a huge quantity of water,though it may be through the intermediary of Village Panchayat? (ii) What is the cost ofthe water supply scheme which will provide water to the area along with the adjoiningareas? (iii) When is the work on the water supply project likely to be started and when isit expected to be completed? (iv) Whether adequate budget provisions will be made tocomplete the project as per this time limit? (v) Will the water to be supplied by MJP berequired to be treated? A related question is how will the water requirement during theconstruction period be met.

    The total sewage expected to be generated during phase I is 3.60 MLD. On the question

    of utilization of the excess treated effluent (so as to ensure zero discharge), there is nosewer line in the area, as it is outside the municipal limits. The project proponent hasproposed to utilize the excess treated effluent on 29 hectares of land in the whole plot.In this connection, the following questions need to be considered seriously and answersprovided: (i) Is there any likelihood of the Palghar municipal limits getting extended to theproject area and a municipal sewer line being constructed in the area? If so, what is areasonable time limit? (ii) What are the types of horticulture and other crops that will betaken up in the 29 hectare area and what are their water requirements? (iii) Duringdiscussion, it was found that the proposal to store the treated effluent in ponds involvedsubstantial pumping of the effluent. Can this be minimized, particularly if only a part ofphase I (say one third) is taken up initially?

    There is no possibility of considering the proposal unless satisfactory answers to theabove two crucial issues are available. Further, it will be necessary to break up phase Iof the project as indicated above. After these issues are sorted out, the projectproponent will have to pay attention to the following issues also;

    (i) Elevated water tanks will have to be provided for each sector.

    (ii) Proper management of medical waste.

    Consultant:M/s Mahabal Enviro Engineers Pvt Ltd.

    Name of the project and location: Proposed residential project at Parel Tank Road,Kalachowki, Village Parel, Mumbai classified under 8(b) category B1.

    Brief details of the project (as per the proposal):

    Gross plot area: 28,924 sq.m. Net plot area: 28,363 sq.m. Total construction area:2,96,458 sq.m. (of which FSI area is 84,213 sq.m. and including 1,04,370 sq.m. forMCGM parking). Residential building: 3 wings (G+9P+S+55 floors) with 948 tenements.Landscape area: 12,054 sq.m. No. of captive parking spaces as per norms: 1830. No.of captive parking spaces proposed: 1935. No. of MCGM parking spaces proposed:1248.

    Decision: The proposal involves construction of MCGM parking. Government approvalfor the same is yet to be obtained. Till it is obtained and a copy produced, the proposalcannot be considered. Meanwhile the following preliminary remarks are offered:

    (i) The proposal to construct 9 podia is not at all acceptable. There is considerablescope for reducing the same substantially, since the parking areas proposed (both forMCGM parking and captive parking) are on a prohibitively high scale. The area of1,04,370 sq.m. for 1243 municipal parking spaces gives an average of 83.6 sq.m, whichis about 240 to 250% of the norms. It has been stated that as per norms 1830 parkingspaces have to be provided for captive use. The basis of arriving at this figure must befurnished. Against a claimed norm of 1830, the project proponent has proposed toprovide 1935 parking spaces on a total area of 74,529 sq.m., giving an average of 38.5

    sq.m. per car, which is again higher than the norm by about 30%.

    (ii) The ground coverage of 52% shown does not appear to be correct. It should beworked out taking into account the area of the podia also.

    (iii) A clearance of at least 10 m should be left all around the building between thepodium line and the boundary.

    (iv) The proposal to have 100% RG on the podium is not at all acceptable. At least50% of the RG should be on the ground.

    (v) The cantilever for parking refuge area on the 7thfloor is to be avoided.

    (vi) The BMC share of the vacant land as per the Mill Policy is a very narrow strip

    and is also shown as part of the amenity area. This needs to be clarified with referenceto the provisions of the DC rules.

    (vii) Consent of MCGM for supply of fresh water required by the project should beobtained and a copy furnished.

    (viii) The underground tank for rainwater harvesting needs to be made bigger and alsorelocated.

    (ix)` With regard to the vehicles coming in from and out to the Dinshaw Petit Marg, thecomments of the traffic police may be obtained.

    (x) The proposed tree plantation on the terrace has no ecological significance. Thenumber of trees to be planted on the ground needs to be increased.
