project area of 729.48 Ha (Mining Lease area -526.06 Ha).(Annexure-III)

As per directive of Ministry of Coal vide letter number 55011-01-2009-CPAM

dated 08.09.2009, 11.01.2012, 25.04.2012 and 07.01.2013, owners of all coal

mines are required to submit Mine Closure Plan as per guidelines and get it

approved, both for operating and yet-to-start mines where Mining Plan is

approved. There is no approved Mine Closure Plan for Utkal-D block. NALCO

submitted Mining Plan (Revision-1) and Mine Closure Plan for Utkal-E coal block

in July 2014. The report was being updated as per observations of Standing

CMPDI


Committee when all 204 coal blocks allocated were cancelled under order of

Honorable Supreme Court dated 24.09.2014.

After that Utkal-D&E Coal Block was allotted to National Aluminum Company

Limited for captive use by Ministry of Coal, Govt. of India.

3. NEED / JUSTIFICATION FOR THE PROJECT

Aluminium smelter plant of Nalco is situated at Angul in Odisha. The captive

power plant with an installed capacity of 1200MW (10x120 MW) is also located

near the smelter plant at Angul, around 35 Km from Utkal-D&E coal block.

Further 2 units of 250MW captive power plants are under consideration, for

which a feasibility report has been prepared by Tata Consulting Engineers

Limited, Kolkata in March, 2009.

Out of the 10 existing units of the CPP, Nalco has long term coal linkage for 8

units (Units 1 to 8) and tapering coal linkage for units 9 and 10 from MCL mines.

For calculation of coal requirement, reference has been taken from

“Annexure VII-Consumption Norm” of the “Scheme Document for Captive Power

Plant Sub-sector” issued by Coal India Limited.

GCV of ROM coal from Utkal-D&E coal mine is expected to be 3559 kcal/kg, i.e.,

average grade of coal shall be of G-13 grade, falling in grade range of 3400-

3700 kcal/kg.

As per document under reference above, coal consumption for power plant of

capacity between 100 MW to less than 200 MW for G-13 coal is 5727 metric

tonne/MW/Year.

For power plant units of 250 MW and above for G-13 coal, consumption norm is

5201 metric tonne/MW/Year.

Coal requirement for units 9 & 10 (120 MW each): 240 MW x 5727= 13,74,480

metric tonne per year.

Coal requirement for units 11 & 12 (250 MW each): 500 MW x 5201= 26,00,500

metric tonne per year.

Total requirement = 39,74,980 metric tonne/year or 3.975 million metric tonne

per year, rounded off to 4.00 Mt/yr.

In the light of above, opening of the proposed project is justified for early supply

of coal to CPP units 9 & 10 as these are starved of coal.

Highway-63, 2.1 km north-east at Raijharan village. State Highway-63 is all

weather widened and strengthened road connecting Tahsil town Chhendipada to

District HQ Angul. National Highway 55 (Bhubaneswar-Sambalpur) at Angul is

20 km from Raijharan village. Chhendipada Tahsil HQ is around 21 km north-

west of the block on State Highway-63. Nearest rail head is Angul at a distance

of about 26 km on Sambalpur-Talcher-Bhubaneswar rail line of East Coast

Railway. Angul is well connected with State capital Bhubaneswar by rail and

road which is at a distance of about 170 km. Bhubaneswar has international

airport.

5. TOPOGRAPHY, DRAINAGE AND CLIMATE (PLATE-IV & V)

The Utkal-D&E coal block exhibits a gentle undulating topography with general

slope down towards north. The minimum & maximum elevations above mean

sea level of the block are 135m (near borehole CMTU-294) towards north near

Singhada Jhor stream and 185m (near borehole CMTU-94) towards south

respectively. Surface soil is generally sandy containing quartz pebbles and

boulders. Southern part of the blocks are represented mainly by rough, rigid and

hilly terrain and is under forest cover whereas central and northern parts are

CMPDI


being utilized for agricultural purposes. Patches of forest and open shrubs also

occur along seasonal streams & Singhada jhor.

Drainage of the blocks is mainly controlled by easterly flowing Singhada jhor

which forms the northern boundary of the block and maintains the base flow

even during the dry summer. Gundijeri nala and Katau nala traversing the area

drain into Singhada jhor which ultimately meets the Brahmani River towards

north-east of the area. There are a few ponds in the block area and mainly used

for domestic & irrigation purposes.

The minimum HFL is 131.866m and maximum HFL is 147.71m. Wherever the

surface level is less than 1.5m below HFL, embankment will be constructed.

Climate: This area experiences warm & humid tropical to sub-tropical climate

and temperature ranges from 6.7oC (during winter) to 46.7oC (during summer

season). Annual rainfall varies from 932mm to 1588mm (average being

1270mm). Humidity varies from 25% to 88%. Annual mean wind speed is

3.24km/hour. Wind direction is mainly east during pre-monsoon season and

during post-monsoon period it changes towards north-west and north-east.

6. GEOLOGY

“Geological Report on coal exploration Utkal-D block, Talcher coalfield, District-

Angul, Orissa”-December, 2002 was prepared by CMPDI, RI-VII [At Sachivalaya

Marg, Unit-3, Bhubaneswar (Odisha)] and “Geological Report on coal

exploration Utkal-E block, Talcher coalfield, district Angul, Orissa” – April, 2005

was prepared by CMPDI, RI-VI [At & P.O: Jayant, Dist.: Sidhi (M.P)].

Area of the Block: Combined Utkal-D&E block cover an area of 8.68 sq.km.

The block is nearly rectangular in shape having about 4.5 km length in north-

south direction and approximately 2.4 km width in east-west direction.

Status of Exploration: The exploration in the combined block was carried out

in different phases by MECL and CMPDIL. 122 boreholes spreading over 8.68

sq. km. area and involving 19676.10 meter of drilling have been drilled in the

block under reference. The borehole density of the block comes to 14

boreholes/sq. km. Data of nearby boreholes of adjacent blocks have also

been considered for geological interpretation & modeling.

CMPDI


Block Boundary: Block Boundary is given below.

Structure

General strike of the beds is mainly E-W to ESE-WNW with slight variations in

the central part of the block. The direction of the dip of the strata is towards N to

NNE and the amount varies from 3o to 8o.

Existence of 3 no faults has been interpreted on the basis of borehole data with

varying throw from 0 to 15m, heading both North & Southward. Faults occur

mostly in the central part of the block, thus major part of the combined block

remains almost free from structural disturbance. Dip of the fault plane is

assumed to be 70o-75 o.

Coal Seams

A sum total of 20 correlatable coal seams - IIA to XI (seams of Barakar

Formation) in ascending order from bottom to top are preserved in the block.

CMPDI


Among the 20 seam, three seam viz. VIB & IIC are not considered for detail studies

and reserve estimation for their inconsistent and unworkable nature. Seam I

generally occurs below seam II with a parting ranging from about 80m to 130 m in

Talcher coalfield. However, this seam intersected 122 m below seam II, in borehole

UT-23 drilled in nearby block shows very poor development and found to occur in

three thin splits viz-Upper Split, Middle Split & Lower Split with a thickness of 0.34

m,0.25 m& 0.12 m respectively. None of the boreholes have been deepened to

intersect the seam I of Karharbari formation in the block.

Sequence of Coal Seam

The sequence of coal seams, their thicknesses, stratigraphic & effective and

intervening partings as intersected in the boreholes drilled within the two blocks is

given in descending order in the following table. Sequence of coal seams intersected

Lower seams are thinner when they are nearer to surface, still at a depth

between 100m and 65m. It is perceived that by open cast mining method,

production from upper seams and lower seams can be mixed in a manner to

sustain the mine economically.

By underground mining, annual production of 4.0 Mty is difficult to achieve.

Total extraction may not exceed 40% of available coal.

8. MINE BOUNDARY

The details of adopted mine boundaries are given below:

• MINE FLOOR

Floor of seam IIE (eastern part) and IIID (western part) has generally been

considered as the mine floor. However, in the north-western part, seam III A Bottom has been taken as mine floor.

• SURFACE BOUNDARIES

NORTH: Quarry surface boundary is drawn after provision of embankment, 5

m away from southern bank of Singhada Jhor and 5 m safety width

from toe of the embankment. General width of barrier on surface

from Singhada Jhor is 30m.

EAST: Quarry surface boundary is 35m away from block boundary where

nala diversion is proposed and 7.5 m away from the block boundary

where nala diversion is not required. This barrier will accommodate

service road, power line and fencing.

SOUTH: Quarry surface boundary is surface projection of quarry slope to

fully excavate seam VII-B and extending down to seam II-E or III-D.

WEST : About 30m barrier is kept to accommodate nala diversion, statutory

barrier & safety distance.

Quarry slope is about 37 degrees on an average. Horizontal roads of same

level of 21m width have been provided all along the quarry slope. Level of the

top most road is 140m and are provided at 30m vertical intervals down to

quarry bottom. Slope of 30m height between subsequent level roads is 60

degrees. This angle is achieved with 10m high benches at 70 degree angle

and 3m berm in between.

9. MINEABLE RESERVE & MINE LIFE

• Net Geological Reserve is estimated as 167.92 Mt within mine

boundary

• The mineable coal is estimated as 159.52 Mt with corresponding

overburden of 396.59 Mcum. The overall stripping ratio works

out to 2.49 cum/t.

• The mine life works out to 43 years at the target capacity of 4.0 Mty with

4 years of build-up and 2 years of tapering of production in initial and

closing years of mining activity.

11. MINING TECHNOLOGY Selection of Technology: For opencast mining any of the following or a

combination are generally adopted.

i) Bucket-wheel excavation system

ii) Dragline system

iii) Shovel-dumper system

CMPDI


iv) Surface Miner-pay loader-truck system

For coal deposit in Utkal-D&E coal block, Bucket-wheel system is not suitable

due to multi-seam deposit, abrasive sandstone strata and narrow width.

Further, Dragline cannot be applied to any parting strata which can be directly

side cast (backfilled).

Shovel-dumper system is very flexible and also offers convenient mining

operations to deal with sudden occurrence of unworkable and poor quality

zones and offers flexibility for easy up-gradation. The technology is well-known

and advantageous to get skilled manpower.

Surface Miner excavation has been proved to be a successful technology in

coal sector from 1999 for winning coal. There are many advantages in this

technology, of avoiding drilling, blasting, crushing in coal and related

environmental hazards, improvement in grade of ROM coal by removing thin

bands etc.

So, a mix type of excavator combination is proposed for this mine. Surface

miner will be worked for extraction of coal. It will work in windrowing method,

depositing cut coal behind. Loaders will heap and load into the tipping trucks,

to be carried to the surface. Shovel-dumper system is proposed for excavation

of overburden.

12. COAL WINNING AND OB REMOVAL

Coal is proposed to be cut primarily by surface miner of 3.8m wide drum in

windrowing method. Loose coal will be loaded by 4.0cum bucket front-end-

loaders on to 16T tippers. At certain conditions where surface miner cannot be

deployed, ripper will be deployed to loosen coal. After dozing, such coal will be

loaded by hydraulic shovel on to dumper.

Top soil (about 0.3 m) will be dozed, loaded and temporarily stored in the

northern part where mining is to take place after 15 years. It will be spread over

dumps for reclamation progressively. Towards the end of mine life, top soil can

be concurrently spread over levelled dump top. Weathered mantle below top soil

will be excavated by 12 cum hydraulic backhoe without blasting. Shovel-dumper

system is proposed for excavation of overburden.

23.3 NOISE QUALITY

Noise is considered as a source for annoyance and health hazard. The high

noise level disturbs the ambient environmental quality. The Noise quality of

Routine Environmental Monitoring data of the existing Hingula OCP (15.0 Mty)

of M/s MCL for January to March 2016 is given in following table:

24. SAFETY MANAGEMENT AND CONSERVATION

Adequate provisions have been made for safe working of the mine in form of

design of operational systems, provision of safety measures for safe use of

explosives, electricity and HEMM etc. Sufficient financial provisions have been

made under different heads for procurement of necessary safety equipment.

Adequate skilled & trained manpower will be provided for compliance of safety

provisions. Regular training/refresher courses, "on job" training shall be

conducted & mock rehearsals shall be made to make the manpower conversant

with various rules, regulations, methods of prevention & combat with hazards.

CMPDI


All the regulations & schedules of Coal Mines Regulations, 1957 relating to

opencast mining have to be adhered to and implemented in order to maintain

day to day safety precautions as per statute. Special precaution should be

taken while deploying contractor’s worker in the mine. Before employing any

contractor’s labour in the mine proper vocational training should be imparted

and recommendations of the latest Safety Conference should be strictly

followed. Suitable measures should be taken to minimize coal loss during

mining operations.

25. REHABILITATION AND RESETTLEMENT

The proposed project area consist of Nandichhod (Gopivallavpur) (Fully

affected), Gopinathpur Jungle (Fully affected), Kosla (Partially affected),

Kundajhari Jungle (No habitat), Korda (Partially affected), Raijharan (Partially

affected), and Similishahi (No habitats affected). The details of Project Affected

Family (PAF)/ Project Affected Persons are as follows:

Sl. No. Villages Total PAF Total PAP 1. Nandichhod (Fully) 101 405 2. Gopinathpur (Fully) 03 12 3. Kosala (Partially) 38 150 4. Raijharan (Partially) 57 228

Total 199 795 Source: As per the R&R study.

26. RAIN WATER HARVESTING

Rain water is naturally pure water except where it becomes acidic due to

industrial pollution. The rapid exploitation of ground water as well as surface

water due to the industrial developmental projects, increase in population

resulted in acute scarcity of fresh water availability. It has become necessary to

conserve this valuable natural resource for sustainable development.

Conservation of this valuable natural resource can be done by collecting this

rain water scientifically and utilizing it either for drinking purposes or ground

water recharging purposes.

CMPDI


Scientifically & technically designed system which helps us to collect and utilize

the rain water effectively through various steps and collectively termed as “Rain

Water Harvesting”.

The various steps/methods are roof top catchments, check dams, percolation

pond, storage tanks, etc.
