3 DESCRIPTION OF THE ENVIRONMENT This chapter illustrates the description of the existing environmental status of the study area with reference to the prominent environmental attributes. The study area covers the area falling within 2 -km radius from the edge of the proposed project area.Environment facets to be considered in relation to building construction are: (a) Land (b) Air (c) Noise (d) Water (e) Biological (f) Socio-economic This report incorporates the baseline data generated through primary surveys during post monsoon season October to November 2015.

3.1 METHODOLOGY

The methodology for conducting the baseline environmental survey considered is as per the guidelines given in the Environmental Impact Assessment Guidance Manual for Building, Construction Projects. Baseline information with respect to air quality , noise level, water quality, soil quality in the study area (2.0 km radius from project boundary) were collected by conducting primary sampling / field studies during post monsoon season of year 2015. Baseline status of Land, Biological and Socio-economic environment are also studied. The characteristics of baseline status of study area with respect to the following environmental parameters were studied:

3.1.1 Primary Data Collection:

• Ambient air quality • Noise Level • Groundwater and Surface water quality • Soil quality • Land use pattern

3.1.2 Secondary Data Collection:

• Meteorological data from IMD, Mumbai • Flora and Fauna • Socio-economic conditions • Sensitive areas such as forests, sanctuaries, places of historical, archeological and tourist

importance. The methodology adopted for the EIA study is outlined below: Conducting reconnaissance surveys for knowing the study area; and Selecting sampling locations for conducting various environment baseline studies. The sampling locations have been selected on the basis of the following: a. Predominant wind directions recorded by the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD); b. Existing topography; c. Drainage pattern and location of existing surface water bodies like lakes/ponds, rivers,

sea and streams; d. Location of villages/towns/sensitive areas; and

e. Areas, which represent baseline conditions.

3.2 LAND ENVIRONMENT

3.2.1 Land Use Pattern The land use pattern will mainly deal with the land use, and land cover within project site and study area. Land use refers to “man’s activity and various uses which are carried on land. Land cover refers to physical characteristics of earth surface as natural vegetation, water bodies, rock/soil, artificial cover and others result to land transformation.

3.2.2 Data Input Satellite imageryhas been used for development of Land use pattern and Google map as a reference map for preparation of detailed GIS based Land use map for 2 km radius study area.

3.5.5 Interpretations: 98%ile of all parameters were observed to be within permissible limit at project site. Apart from project site the monitoring results exceeds the permissible limit for PM10 at all location and PM2.5 at Kalundre and Palaspe. NOX and SO2 were observed to be within permissible limit at all monitoring location.

3.6 NOISE ENVIRONMENT

The objective of the noise pollution survey around the project site was to identify existing noise

sources and to measure background noise levels. The study was carried out in the following

steps:

Reconnaissance

Identification of noise sources and measurement of noise levels

Measurement of noise levels due to transportation

Community noise levels

3.6.1 Identification of Sampling Locations Noise standards have been designated for different types of area, i.e. residential, commercial,

industrial and silence zones, as per The Noise Pollution (Regulation and Control) Rules, 2000,

Notified by Ministry of Environment and Forests, New Delhi, February 14, 2000. Different

standards have been stipulated for day time (6 am to 10 pm) and night time (10 pm to 6 am).

Ambient noise level monitoring was done at same locations where ambient air monitoring was

carried out within a study area. The locations are away from the major roads and major noise

sources so as to measure ambient noise levels. The frequency of monitoring was set at an interval

of 15 seconds over a period of 10 minutes per hour for 24-hours. The observed Equivalent sound

levels (Leq) values in dBA are given in

Table 3-10for each monitoring location in distinguished form of day time (6 am to 10 pm) and

night time (10 pm to 6 am).

All measurements were carried out when the ambient conditions were unlikely to adversely

affect the results.

3.6.2 Interpretation: The above mentioned table and graph shows the daytime values at project site, ONGC hospital, Shri Chhatrapati Shivaji Vidayala were observed to be above permissible limits. The project site is abutting the JNPT road resulting into higher noise levels due to traffic movements. Moreover ONGC hospital and Shri Chhatrapati Shivaji Vidayala noise levels were above silent zone limits while below residential limits. The surrounding residential area and the traffic is the major cause of the exceeding noise limit.

3.7 BIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENT

The proposed project is a green field development project. The proposed site is a fallow land with non-agriculture use. The site is usually covered by monsoon vegetation and there are 257 trees on site. The site is partly low lying and waterlogged during the monsoon. Due to water logging, there is substantially high number of Ipoemoea carnea. Ipoemoea is a typical plant that has been introduced from South America and is usually found near water logged areas. The plant is considered as weed in India. Being an open area, the site is being used by many types of birds and insects as roosting and feeding places respectively. The core area is not a biologically diverse area. This site is flanked by Kalundri River in the west. In the buffer zone, about 2kms in Southwest direction, there are 2 hills that are vegetated. The vegetation patch further joins the boundary of Karnala Bird Sanctuary.

3.10 SOCIO-ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT

3.8.1 Reconnaissance

The study of socio-economic component incorporating various facets related to socio-economic conditions of the project area is an integral part of the EIA. The socio-economic component of the environment with reference to human interests, aesthetic and cultural attributes needs to be studied while delineating Environmental Management Plan (EMP) for achieving desired targets without impairing the quality of life. In order to carry out such studies information on issues such as land acquisition, compensation and assistance, effect on employment and income generating facilities etc. along with parameters of health and risk was collected. The project does not involve land acquisition therefore issues such as compensation, rehabilitation and settlement have not been involved in the present report.

Baseline data on socio-economic parameters such as demography, infrastructure, economic resource base, health status, cultural aspects and aesthetic attribute were generated using information available with Govt. agencies, census data, and statistical abstracts and health agencies.

3.8.5 Socio-Economic Survey

The social structure of the study area was assessed by selecting respondent (Stratified random sampling method) from the villages through set of interview schedule. The observations of the respondents during survey work are as under:

• Literacy level among the respondent is satisfactory. • Educational facilities are adequate to improve level of literacy which is indicated by

literacy rate of 75%. • Social changes have been observed in urban communities which reflect the positive

impact of development of project area. • Private vehicles, Auto, Bus, and Railway are the main mode of transportation. • The employment rate is very low (32.67%). Density of population plays an important role

in urban area; the work force availability for the developmental activities is low. People are engaged in the secondary source of employment like industries, construction activities, small business etc.

• Most of the people have been migrated to the urban area for employment. Due to insufficient facility at rural area peoples earning is restricted which is not enough to meet their needs & therefore the workforce prefers to work in the industries and construction related activities. Their earning is not enough to meet their requirement and therefore people are engaged in multi task activities to earn more money.

• All the villages are connected with each other by Pucca Roads. The road conditions are very poor in some area which leads to poor transportation.

• All the respondents are aware of activities of project and have favourable opinion for the project.

4 ANTICIPATED ENVIRONMENT IMPACTS AND MITIGATION MEASURES

4.1 INTRODUCTION

• Predict environmental impacts of project • Find ways and means to reduce adverse impacts • Shape project to suit local environment • Present the predictions and options to the decision-makers This section outlines the environmental aspects and potential adverse environmental impacts relevant to the construction and operation phase of the project.

4.2 IDENTIFICATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECTS

Environmental aspects within this project are specific construction actions or items that could cause an impact. The proposed works have been reviewed, and aspects have been identified.

4.2.1 Land Environment The proposed project land is Non Agricultural Land with conformity of local authority. The land use of the surrounding area is mainly agricultural and vacant land. As per the land use pattern study of 2.0 Km from project boundary agricultural land is 32.60 % and vacant land is 18.90 %.

4.2.1.1 Anticipated Impacts & Mitigation Measures during Construction phase

• A small agriculture plot is abutting to the project boundary at north side impacts due to dust generation on crops is expecting. Dust control mitigation measures is being suggested as separate material storage area, unloading of material from trucks nearby storage area, water sprinkling minimum twice a day to control dust emissions during truck movement.

• Removal of existing vegetation results loss of native species. Vegetation is mainly contained grasses. 21 trees have been proposed for cutting out of 257 trees and 146 trees has been retained accordingly. However final decision shall be taken after the approval of competent authority.

• Top soil removal during construction mainly during excavation. The proposed construction has been done in phase wise manner. Excavation is done as per phases. Top soil has been managed as per phase wise development of landscaping in respective portions.

• Contamination of soil due to accidental oil spillage and fuel is expected. Construction of roads with adequate loading and unloading capacity has been suggested prior to any construction activity to avoid any accidental spillage on soil.

Amendment & Expansion of “SAI WORLD CITY” MMRDA Rental Housing Scheme

• Contamination of soil due to waste generated due to labor camps and construction work. Waste generated through the labors shall be collected and handed over to local recyclers. Construction waste shall be minimum as their construction is proposed on aluminum shuttering form work plastering waste shall be generated and same shall be used in paving of roads.

• During construction phase there will be runoff generated through various construction activities. To mitigate the potential impact from this temporary storm water drain channel are proposed.

• Alteration of natural drainage by filling and increase in level for flood prevention. However final drainage system for operation phase shall be according to natural topography of the area that is towards north.

4.2.1.2 Anticipated Impacts & Mitigation measures during operation phase • Change in land surface causes increase in runoff during monsoon. There shall be

reduction in natural recharging of the land. Though area shall be paved after construction yet 13.45% of ground RG is proposed. There shall be no provision for ground water recharge as the water table is high.

• Contamination of soil due to waste generation .Solid waste generated shall be treated in OWC for both sale and Rental Housing. The manure generated shall be used for landscaping and the rest over shall be given to the neighbor paddy and agricultural lands for their good productivity.

4.2.2 Water Environment

4.2.2.1 Anticipated Impacts and Mitigation during construction phase • The project shall not be dependent upon ground water and river water. Only tanker water

shall be used for construction activity. • Wastewater generated during construction will be from labor camps on the site. The

mobile STP shall be used in construction phase. The treated water shall be used for construction purpose. There shall not be any kind of waste water that will lead to the Kalundri River.

• There can be possibilities of seepage of waste water during construction activity into the ground water. During the construction phase entire construction shall be on paved area, waste water generated through this area shall be easily diverted to the temporary storm water drain. Temporary storm water drains shall be provided with sedimentation tank.

4.2.2.2 Anticipated Impacts and Mitigation measures during operation phase • Extraction of ground water There shall be no extraction of ground water. The source of fresh water requirement is MJP. Project is having dual plumbing system with the provision of recycling of treated sewage. RWH tanks have been proposed for partial fulfillment of fresh water requirement during monsoons. • Discharge of waste water into nearby river. Underground drainage system has been proposed which will be connected to municipal covered sewer lines. • Wastewater Disposal

There will be around 3555 KLD waste water generated from Rental and sale units during

operation by various processes like cooking, bathing, washing, flushing etc.

The wastewater will be treated in sewage treatment plant provided both for sale component and Rental component. The treated sewage will be used at the project for flushing, gardening and construction activity purposes which will reduce the load on the domestic water supply. Excess Treated water from STP shall be used for construction activity and rest disposed into the sewer lines. Possibilities of providing the treated water to the nearby municipal gardens or other construction site shall be explored later.

The commercial shops in the project will provide employment opportunities to skilled and unskilled population of neighboring area. Wider economic growth:This project will increase the economic activities around the area, creating avenues for direct/ indirect employment in the post project period. There would be a wider economic impact in terms of generating opportunities for other business like workshops, marketing, repair and maintenance tasks etc. Infrastructural development:The project would enhance the infrastructure in the vicinity, which also involves road upgrading drainage facility sewerage drainage facility. Aesthetics Environment:The architectural character of the new building, the vistas and landscaped areas created would improve the aesthetics of the area after construction.

4.2.6.2 Negative Impacts Additional traffic in the area is a matter of concern to the local people. This effect would be prominent during construction as well as operation phase. The probability of inconvenience faced due to the frequency of truck movement during construction phase would be minimized by better control of traffic movement in the area. Noise levels expected from the planned operating conditions have been assessed and are likely to be within acceptable levels. The impacts have been mitigated by the suggested measures in the “air control and management section”. Transient Labor population:Laborers from the surrounding areas might come and work at the site. Though majority of population would be recruited locally, limited labor with specific skills will be recruited from outside the region. Therefore, no significant pressure on local infrastructure is envisaged. Labor camps are provided with temporary basis.

4.2.6.3 Negligible Impacts Demography:During construction phase as well as operation phase, certain number of work force from outside cannot be avoided. Otherwise the project will not alter the existing demographic profile and the existing population density. Impact on accessing utilities:Utilities include the supply of water, electricity and sewage facilities. It is anticipated that project will have own infrastructure facilities and would also provide access to local population at least during crisis. Impact on Historical, Archeological and Architectural Sites:There are no historical or archeological monuments of significance within the immediate impact radius of the site. Hence, no negative impact in this regard is anticipated.

5 ADDITIONAL STUDIES This chapter illustrates power requirement and energy saving measures, non-conventional energy resources, construction material and construction technology, storm water management, rain water harvesting, traffic and transportation study.

5.1 CONSTRUCTION TECHNOLOGY

The proposed construction is based on Aluminum formwork system developed by one of the construction company known as MIVAN. This system is also known as MIVAN. MIVAN is a new technology which has empowered and motivated the mass construction projects throughout the world.The system of aluminum forms (MIVAN) has been used widely in the construction of residential units and mass housing projects. It is fast, simple, adaptable and cost – effective. It produces total quality work which requires minimum maintenance and when durability is the prime consideration. This system is most suitable for Indian condition as a tailor–made aluminum formwork for cast–in–situ fully concrete structure. The system usually follows a four day cycle:- Day 1:-The first activity consists of erection of vertical reinforcement bars and one side of the vertical formwork for the entire floor or a part of one floor. Day 2:-The second activity involves erection of the second side of the vertical formwork and formwork for the floor. Day 3:-Fixing reinforcement bars for floor slabs and casting of walls and slabs. Day 4:-Removal of vertical form work panels after 24hours, leaving the props in place for 7 days and floor slab formwork in place for 2.5 days.

8 CONCLUSIONS The surrounding of the site is mostly agricultural. There are two other MMRDA Rental Housing

Schemes around the project site which are likely to be developed in few years. Other

development like infrastructure facilities is also proposed in the area like expansion of Goa

Highway, JNPT road. The area is in close proximity to the Panvel City which is a fast growing

city as per the current development. The need of EWS Housing is continuously growing for last

few years .These kind of Rental Housing Scheme provide better living standards and social

infrastructure for low income group. The project is also enhancing the direct indirect manpower

requirement for the proposed International Airport. This type of the infrastructure also reduces

the infrastructure load of the nearby cities.
