2. Impact and Mitigation Measures

2.1 Air Environment

The main source of flue gas emission is TFH (6 lac kCal/h), D. G. Set (150 kVA) as a stand-

by source to the main power supply. Fuel used in TFH & D.G. is Diesel. There is no process

gas emission. Due to raw material handling and transportation and manufacturing activity,

there will be chances of fugitive emissions.

The base line Ambient Air Quality (AAQ) status within 10 km study area has been assessed

through a monitoring network of 5 AAQ sampling stations during October-2016 to December

-2016 Ambient Air Quality monitoring locations were decided on meteorology & available

infrastructure facilities. The base-line Ambient Air Quality of the study area was monitored for

Particulate Matter (PM10 & PM2.5), Sulphur Dioxide (SO2), Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2), VOC, & CO.

The result for the same is given as below:

ROMAN PETROCHEMICAL



T. R. ASSOCIATES,


Analysis of ambient air samples revealed that the Air quality is found well within the

prescribed limits of National Ambient Air Quality standards.

There is no requirement Air Pollution Control Measure for TFH as Diesel will be used as fuel.

D.G. set is standby hence adequate stack height will be provided for proper dispersion of

pollutants.

Unit will take all the necessary precautions and control measures to take care of the fugitive

emissions, such as all the raw materials will be stored in isolated storage area; entire

manufacturing activity will be carried out in closed reactors / vessels and regular checking

and maintenance of the same will be carried out to avoid any leakages.

2.2 Water Environment

In proposed unit 16.9 KL/d fresh water is required for domestic activities, greenbelt

development, and utility operations. Source of fresh water is tanker.

Total 0.15 KL/d sewage (domestic wastewater) will be generated. Total industrial wastewater

generation will be 1.9 KL/d.

ROMAN PETROCHEMICAL



T. R. ASSOCIATES,


Total 1.9 KLD of waste water generated from floor washing water, process effluent and

cooling tower blow down will be collected in Collection cum neutralization Tank. Effluent will

be then neutralized using Lime & Alum and then taken to Nutch Filter for sludge separation.

Separated dried sludge will be collected, stored and disposed of at approved TSDF site.

Filtrate water from Nutch Filter will be taken to holding tank then it will be evaporated in

steam based Evaporator, thus unit will maintain zero liquid discharge.

Analysis of Ground Water & Surface Water samples revealed that the both ground water

quality & surface water quality is satisfactory to serve for domestic purposes as per drinking

water quality standards IS: 10500.

2.3 Solid and Hazardous Waste Management

The main hazardous waste generation will be ETP waste & evaporation residue. The other

hazardous wastes shall be used oil & Discarded Plastic Bags.

ETP sludge + evaporation residue will be disposed off at approved TSDF site. Used oil will be

reused within premises as a lubricant or sold to registered recycler. Discarded plastic

bags/drums will be sold to authorized vendor.

Unit will provide storage area for hazardous wastes having roof, pucca flooring with leachate

collection system to avoid land/soil contamination. Leachate, if any will be collected and

treated in effluent treatment plant.

2.4 Land Environment

During operation activity the impact of air, water and solid & hazardous waste pollution on

soil causes direct / indirect effect on soil.

As all necessary air pollution control steps are proposed to avoid adverse impact of air

pollution on soil. Proposed greenbelt inside the unit consists of tree cover which is tolerant to

major air pollutants.

Rain water harvesting system is proposed for recharging ground water. The effluent

treatment plant is ZLD hence there will be no disposal of untreated effluent on land. Soak-pit

will be cleaned periodically. So there will be no adverse effect on land / soil due to water.

All necessary control steps will be provided for handling, storage and disposal of

solid/hazardous waste generated from the plant. Thus, there will not be any significant

impact of solid/hazardous waste on the soil environment.

2.5 Noise Environment

In proposed project main source of noise will be D.G. set, pump, TFH & evaporator.

Noise level was recorded at 5 locations within the study area to provide the baseline data to

describe the existing situations.

other casual employment for many people.

Local people will be given preference wherever found suitable for all the jobs in the plant.

Economic status of the local people will improve due to the increased business opportunities,

thereby, making a positive impact. Unit will spend annually minimum 2.5% of its net profit for

carrying out various CSR activities every year.

6. Conclusion

Negligible impacts will occur on air quality. However, all the necessary air pollution

control measures will be provided.

No ecological damage will occur.

No adverse impacts will occur on water environment.

Local employment opportunities will increase.

Various other environment parameters like Forest/ National Park/ Sanctuary and

Religious / Historical Places will not be affected.

Environment Management Plan has been formulated to control all the pollutant

parameters and Environment Management Cell has been set-up to ensure that these parameters do not exceed the norms set out by the concerned authorities.

After commissioning of the proposed project the Environmental Management Cell will

take care of all the pollution control measures.

It can be concluded that positive implementation of mitigation measures and environmental

management plan during the construction & operational phase, there will be negligible impact

on the environment.

meet the current and future market demand, the project proponent intends to start a new

unit. Looking to the market demand, the proposed project is feasible at stated location.

Indian market is open and big that is why every kind of import is booming. Indian industrialist

must understand the fact that it’s no more a regional shift, it is a global shift. Indian

technology should be upgraded an updated at par with international standards.

The working environment in India has changed tremendously. Earlier the trade fairs were

hardly participated by foreign chemical manufacturing companies where as now it is flooded

with global suppliers.

There is good possibility for export. But currently we are focused on local sell market for

distribution.

The proposed project will contribute revenue to the Central & State exchequer. Indirect

contribution to the Central & State exchequer. Thus, the proposed project will help the

Government by paying different taxes from time to time, which is a part of revenue and thus,

will help in developing the area. Demand of the products in foreign market is also significant,

which will boost the export potential of the company as well as country. Export oriented units

Manufacturing process including chemical reaction, mass balance and process flow diagram is

described here below;

2.8.1 Unsaturated Polyester Resin

A. Using Poly Ethylene Terephthalate as main raw material

1. Process

A mixture of 1 mole Poly Ethylene Terephthalate (PET), 1.5 moles Glycol (Di/ Mono

Ethylene Glycol or Propylene Glycol) is fed to a reactor equipped with stirrer,

thermometer, Nitrogen gas introducing tube and with condenser.

The mixture is mechanically stirred and heated to 150 oC to 170 oC under nitrogen

gas stream. When reaction mass become a clear, it is allowed to cool at room temperature and then add 0.6 mole Maleic Anhydride (MA) and continuous heated up

to 200 oC – 210 oC until an acid number reaches below 10.

During esterification reaction water formed as a part of reaction, which is

continuously removed from the reaction mass as it inhibit the reaction rate.

Then the produced unsaturated polyester resin is cooled to 160 oC. Then add 50 mg

of Hydroquinone as inhibitor. When resin temperature dropped below the boiling point of reactive diluent (i.e. Styrene), the polyester resins were mixed with Styrene

by 35 weight plastic resin. This mixture is ready for packing.

AHMEDABAD, GUJARAT CHAP-3: DESCRIPTION OF ENVIRONMENT 73

3 DESCRIPTION OF THE ENVIRONMENT

3.1 Introduction

As per EIA Notification 2006, baseline monitoring is required to evaluate prevailing

environment to workout direct and indirect impacts on various components of environment

(viz. water, air, noise, soil, socio) due to proposed project and their interrelationships. Based

on the identified impacts required and adequate mitigation measures will be proposed.

3.1.1 EIA Methodology for Data Collection

An effective methodology is important for baseline data collection and impact prediction to

develop an efficient environment management plan. In this regards it is important to

understand the ground realities of the site and surrounding by the experts involved in

preparation of EIA. Accordingly a team of expert visited the proposed site to understand the

site surroundings and possible impacts from the activities of the proposed project. The

environment co-ordinates in consultation with the respective functional area experts selected

the sampling locations as per the ToRs prescribed by the SEAC & SEIAA. Subsequently the

field monitoring was undertaken for ambient air monitoring during October 2016 to December

2016 while for water, noise, socio economics, soil in May-2017 by laboratory staff of T. R.

Associates along with functional areas of respective fields. The collected data were analyzed

and interpreted.

3.1.2 Objectives of Baseline Monitoring

The term ‘baseline’ refers to conditions exiting before development against which subsequent

changes can be referenced. Baseline monitoring studies are carried out to:

Measure environmental parameters during a pre-project period for the purpose of

determining the range of variation of the system and establishing reference points

against which changes can be measured.

Identify environmental conditions which might influence project design decisions

(e.g., site layout, structural or operational characteristics);

Identify sensitive issues or areas requiring mitigation or compensation;

Collect input data for analytical models and predict effects due to proposed project;

Provide proposed environmental monitoring programs.

At this stage of EIA process, baseline monitoring is primarily discussed in the context of first

purpose wherein feedback from baseline monitoring programs may be used to:

Determine available assimilative capacity of different environmental components

within the designated impact zone and whether more or less stringent mitigation

measures are needed.

Improve predictive capability of EIAs.

3.1.3 Study Area

To carry out Environment Baseline Monitoring and to generate baseline environmental data

study area of 10 km radial distance from proposed project site has been selected. Base line



ROMAN PETROCHEMICAL



T. R. ASSOCIATES,


data of Ambient air quality, water sampling, land use, land cover, topography, ecology study

as well as socio economic study was collected for study area of 10 km.

3.1.4 Methodology of Baseline Study

For the generation of baseline data guideline proposed by MoEF&CC as well as generic ToRs

issued by SEAC & SEIAA has been taken into consideration. Relevant secondary data

available for different environmental components were collected and analyzed.

The land-use & land cover map of the 10 km radius study area from the project site

was prepared using IRS P6 LISS-III satellite image procured from NRSC (National

Remote sensing Centre), Hyderabad (Figure 3-9).

Survey of India Toposheet (Figure 2-2)

Secondary macro-metrological data from Indian Meteorological Department

(Section-3.2.1).

The details of the study period, frequency of sampling & method of environmental sampling

& analysis are given below in succeeding sections under respective titles.

3.2 Air Environment

Dispersion of different air pollutants released into the atmosphere has significant impacts on

the neighborhood air environment of project and forms an important part of impact

assessment studies. Meteorological conditions of the site regulates the transport and diffusion

of air-pollutants released into the atmosphere.

Ambient temperature, wind speed, wind direction and atmospheric stability are called primary

or basic Meteorological Parameters because the dispersion and diffusion of pollutants depend

mainly on these Parameters. Humidity, precipitation, pressure and visibility are secondary

Meteorological Parameters as this control the dispersion of the pollutants indirectly by

affecting primary Parameters. This data is useful for proper interpretation of the baseline

information as well as serves as an input, to predictive models for air quality impacts.

The ambient air quality status with respect to the study zone of 10 km radial distance from

the plant site will form the base line information over which the predicted impacts due to the

proposed plant can be super imposed to find out the net (Final) impacts on air environment.

From the final impacts a viable Environmental Management Plan (EMP) can be prepared

based on the impact statement for the air environment. .

3.2.1 Climate of the Study Area

The general agro-climatic zone of the study area is Arid to Semi-Arid. Information presented

in subsequent paragraphs is from the most recently published Long Term Climatologically

Tables for the nearest observatory, Rajkot by the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD)1.

3.4 Water Environment

Water of high quality is essential to human life, and water of acceptable quality is essential

for Agricultural, industrial, domestic and commercial uses; in addition, most recreation is

water based. Therefore, water quality studies have been carried out in the study area to

understand the availability of water resources, possibility of water contamination and existing

water quality.


The water resources in the study area may be classified into two major categories like

Surface and Ground water sources.

Water samples were collected at 7 locations, out of which 2 samples from surface Sources

and 5 samples from ground water sources for Physico-chemical and biological parameters.

Parameters were selected based on Guidelines for Water Quality Monitoring by Central

Pollution Control Board, Parivesh Bhawan, East Arjun Nagar, Delhi-32 published in December

2007.

B. Discussions – Ground Water

Source of water at project site is tanker water, the source of water for tanker supplier is bore

well. People are not using water of Bodki well for drinking purpose. The water of open well in

Vavniya village is used for cloth washing. At all the locations Narmada water is available for

drinking purpose except for Virparda village, in this village water from hand pump is used for

drinking as well as household purpose.

Quality of water of Vavaniya village is not meeting drinking water standards, but it can be

used for domestic purpose. The levels of TDS, chlorides, hardness, magnesium, calcium,

sodium at this location is high than other locations as it is located near small rann of Kutch.

At all other locations water can be used for drinking purpose after treatment in RO.

3.4.3 Surface Water Quality

B. Discussions – Surface Water

Levels of TDS, chlorides, hardness, calcium, magnesium, alkalinity, COD, BOD, coliforms are

high at both the locations hence the water can be used for domestic purpose only. The

reason behind high levels of TDS, chlorides and harness are salt pans located near the

sampling points.

3.5 Soil


Disturbed soil samples were collected from the rotary cuttings and bailers and also from split

spoon samplers. Un-disturbed tube samples were collected using thin walled tubes. Soil

samples were collected such that structure and moisture content of the soil do not get

altered. In accordance with IS: 2720, split samples were carefully extracted from the

samplers.

Meticulous was paid to collect adequate amount of composite soil samples for analysis. The

samples were packed in dependable, waterproof containers and marking specified accurately

and distinctly. All the soil samples and core boxes were carefully transported to the testing

laboratory.

All ‘Soil sampling and analysis’ will be followed and done by Indian Standard IS – 2720.

Parameters analyzed for soil samples were pH, organic matter, Electrical Conductivity,

sodium, potassium, cation exchange capacity, water holding capacity, SAR etc.

3.5.2 Sampling Locations and Results

For soil quality analysis 5 sampling sites were chosen to understand Physic-chemical and

biological status of the soil. Sites are marked in this will establish the baseline characteristics

and will facilitate identifying the contamination if any due to the proposed project. The

sampling sites are depicted in the Figure 3-6 & Table 3-15 analysis results are given in

3.6 Hydrology, Ground Water & Water conservation

3.6.1 Geological Features

Repaid urban, industrial and Agricultural growth and its continuous expansion around Maliya

Town, Dist. Morvi has created problems related to water supply, Sewerage/ effluent disposal

leading to ground water depletion and pollution. The present report in corporate

hydrogeology and ground water scenario based on the scientific information with special

reference to Recharge Activity around Maliya town to envisage appropriate remedial

measures keeping environmental impact of Maliya development in view.

Total number of villages 7

Total area of Taluka 770 Sq. Kms.

Saline area - 770 Sq.Kms.

Fresh water area – NIL

Hard rock area – 770 Sq.Kms

Aluminum area – 770 Sq.Kms.

Feasibility –NIL

Quality of Ground Water- Saline

Geologically the area around Mota Dahisara village of Maliya Taluka is occupied by alluvium

formation and Basalt rock formation. The thickness of alluvium in the area is about 06 to 10

mts (APS-2 Alluvium Plain Shallow). Alluvium occurring in out fall areas of Machchhu Rivers

forms a prolific aquifer where ground water occurs under phreatic to semi confined

conditions.

Alluvium underground basalt from the aquifer more suitable for Borewell. The quality of

Ground water is Brackish at all depth in the Alluvium and under line Basalt, hence further

ground water development is not suggested. In around village is Hari par, Gala, Mansar,

Ground water is Saline or Brackish

A lineament is an interesting structure in basalt rock formation for ground water movement,

stoppage and storage. Basalts are generally formed by cooling of lave flows and the rock

itself can be identified by its dark tone. During cooling of lave and formation of a rock, joints

develop. Joints have strike, dip and spacing, some joints structurally, disturbed and they

develop fractures. Such fractures and closely spaced joints has a linear extension. So they

can be seen on imagery as a line. Adyke is an intrusion in the country rock giving a distinct

linear effect on the surface they obstruct the normal ground water flow and surface water

movement. Weathered and fractures dykes are more productive as well as recharging

purpose. Fracture zones forming the course of existing drainage are more productive as well

as recharging purpose. Deccan traps basalts is exposed of upper cretaceous to lower Eocene

age

A. Land / Soil Characteristic

The soils are generally developed from Alluvium and basalt formation and are coarse in

texture with satisfactory internal drainage. The sub soil condition below the existing ground

level are almost uniform in nature. Sub soil is composed of Clay mixed with little fine grained

silty sand, moram and Kankar with low resistivity due to clay and soil moisture. The area is

covered with recent to sub recent alluvial deposits comprising of brownish clay mixed with

little fine grained sand, silty sand. The Soil below ground level consist of top silty low plastic

soil layer having no swelling nature. Blackish brown to yellowish brown clayey silt or sand silt

layer extends to the depth of 2 to 3 mts.

B. Rain fall

30 years average annual rainfall is 449 mm.

C. Climate

The climate of the area is semi arid and is characterized by a hot summers. May is the

hottest month with mean daily maximum temperature of 43.40 C. The area has semi arid

climate with drought frequency of 34%.

3.6.2 Geo-Hydrological Status

The litho logical logs of exploratory bore holes, electrical logging results by govt. agencies in

and around Maliya Taluka have been studied to understand the subsurface geology and the

aquifer system. These bore holes have penetrated the thick sequence of Jura- Cretaceous

age down to 200 + m depth.

B. Ground Water Condition

In the area under investigation, around water occurs both under phreatic and semi confined

condition in alluvium formation. The occurrence and movement of ground water is mainly

controlled by primary porosity of inter granular pore spaces. Ground water is being developed

extensively by means of combination tubewell for water supply both in domestic and

agricultural sector

C. Depth of Ground Water Table

Shallow aquifer (Phreatic) development (up to 30 m depth) in the area is limited due to rapid

urbanization inferior quality and low yields. In general the ground water occurs under water

table condition & confined condition where water level ranges from 30 to 60 m depth

depending upon the rock type. Pumping water level of the area is 70 to 80 m. tube wells and

DCB yield portable water up to 80 m. depth and Quality deteriorates with depth.

3.6.3 Drainage Pattern of the surrounding Region

The area has a drainage pattern which is of the parallel and trellis type and which is

controlled by the topography and structure and tectonics of the region. All the small streams

flow from the higher grounds and meet ultimately flow from south to north direction to south

west direction near project area. The area Drainage ultimately meet with Gulf of Kutch.

Area has diverse landscape made up of small hills, valley, drainage flow, Platue and alluvium

plain. The terrain slope is southly in the north and westernly in the south number of major

river drains the area. Due to terrain constraint it is necessary to adopt proper soil

conservation and sand water development and management practice for w/s in sustained

basis. Because of short span of monsoon season and limited storage capacity and rapid cut

flow for hard rock aquifers, that is need to provide ground water recharge facilities to

supplement its which drawl at a time of summer.

As various components of the hydrologic system-Catchment runoff , base flow and ground

water an integrated at the level of river basins, river basin should be the unit of governance

and management of water resource such a system of governance will ensure integration of

physical sustainability consideration and the social economical and environmental

consideration in water resources management planning which ultimately result in good

governance.

3.7 Land Use

3.7.1 Introduction

The land-use & lad cover map of the 10 km radius study area from the project site has been

prepared using IRS P6 LIS III satellite image procured from NRSC (National Remote sensing

Centre), Hyderabad. Land use pattern of the study area as well as the catchment area was

carried out by standard methods of analysis of remotely sensed data and followed by ground

truth collection (Bench mark) and interpretation of satellite data. The outcome of land use

study has been presented below in subsequent table and figures. The data was processed

through ArcGIS Software tools available with ESRI Package. The Land use map of the 5 km

study area is presented in Figure 3-9.

3.7.2 Land Use & Land Cover Classification

Land Cover is the physical material at the surface of the earth (it include grass, asphalt, trees,

bare ground, water, etc.) whereas Land use is the human use of land.

Land Use involves the management and modification of natural environment or wilderness

into built environment such as fields, pastures, and settlements. It has also been defined as

"the arrangements, activities and inputs people undertake in a certain land cover type to

produce, change or maintain it".

There is no one ideal classification of land use and land cover, and it is unlikely that one could

ever be developed. There are different perspectives in the classification process, and the

process itself tends to be subjective, even when an objective numerical approach is used.

Concepts concerning land cover and land use activity are closely related and in many cases

have been used interchangeably. The purposes for which lands are being used commonly

have associated types of cover, whether they are forest, agricultural, residential, or industrial.

Remote sensing image-forming devices do not record activity directly. The remote sensor

acquires a response which is based on many characteristics of the land surface, including

natural or artificial cover. The interpreter uses color, tones, textures, shapes, size, patterns,

and site associations to derive information about land use activities from what is basically

information about land cover.

To begin with, there is considerable diversity of opinion about what constitutes land use,

although present use of land is one of the characteristics that are widely recognized as

significant for planning and management purposes.

The classification must be scientifically defensible presenting a logical progression of its

applicability over large areas, amenable for use with remote sensor data. The classification

scheme is adopted for extracting information for on most possible land use/land cover classes

in general and all the agricultural seasons in particular and hence enable to repeat the

process at regular time intervals.

The present Land use / Land cover map for the proposed project activity is prepared by

current vintage of satellite image. This report thus will enable assessing the impact on land

use pattern in the study area due to the proposed project activity.

A. Data Used

Current vintage data of Indian Remote Sensing satellite IRS P6 LISS III digital FCC (False

Color Composite) has been used for preparation of Land use/ Land cover thematic map of

study area. Survey of India Topo sheet (Figure 2-2) as a reference map on 1:50,000 scales

have been used for preparation of base layer data like road, rail network, village and mine

site and for geo-referencing of satellite image.

B. Technical Details

Satellite Image - IRS P6 LISS III

Satellite Data Source - NRSC, Hyderabad

Software Used - Earth Resources Data Analysis System (ERDAS) Imagine 9.2 and

ArcGis10.

C. Methodology

Land use / Land cover map preparation, Base map creation; Geometric and Radiometric

correction of satellite image has been processed using ERDAS Imagine 9.2 Software.

Salient features of the adopted methodology are given below:

Acquisition of satellite data.

Preparation of base map from Survey of India Topo sheet.

Data analysis using visual interpretation techniques.

Ground truth studies or field checks.

Finalization of the map.

Digitization using heads up vectorisation method.

Area calculation for statistics generation.

D. Interpretation of Remote Sensing Data

Satellite images are composed of array of grid, each grid has a numeric value that is known

as digital number. Smallest unit of this grid is known as a pixel that captures reflectance of

ground features represented in terms of Digital number, each representing specific land

features. Using image classification technique, the satellite data is converted into thematic

information, map based on the user’s knowledge about the ground area. Hybrid technique

has been used i.e. visual interpretation and digital image processing for identification of

different land use and vegetation cover classes based on spectral signature of geographic

feature.

Spectral signature represents various land use classes. Image interpretation keys are

developed based on image characteristics like color, tone, size, shape, texture, pattern,

shadow, association etc, which enables interpretation of satellite images for ground feature.

Training sites are then assigned based on their spectral signature and interpretation

elements. Using image classification algorithm land use map is generated.

A total of seven land use/land cover classes have been demarcated in the study area

following Level I, II and III classification Table 3-18. A thematic map suitable for 1:25,000

scale map generation incorporating these classified categories has been prepared and

considering that the area of the project is considerably small a large scale map is prepared

Figure 3-9. The area as a whole represents plain area with very gentle sloping to nearly

level area & to the north of area flowing from south to north and it is also observed that the

major stream (Phulki & Jhjhoda) are linked with these two main drainage that debouche into

the Littel Run of Kachchh.Medium level industrial zone covered for 0.72 km2, the total land

area of scrub land covered 24.86 km2 and 175.69 km2 area covered under agriculture land as

well as plantation / Transportation 0.76 km2 has developed mainly in the area adjacent to

the rivers.

The adjoining area of project site is totally agricultural land including Kharif, Rabi and

Summer crop, constitute the dominant category of land use covering as much as 175.69 km2

of the total area. Active river canal forming the perennial water body together with the

numerous open & wastelands form a major and minor land cover category. Active river and

its tributaries flowing into it cover about 7.86 km2 of the total project area. Due to large

seasonal variation in discharge of these rivers, the area coverage of this category various in

space and time. The consistently shifting nature of the (canal name) and consequent bank

migration has resulted in large uncultivated & rural settlement along the active plain area

towards the site location. The land use for settlement is mostly confined to the ‘rural and

urban settlement’ (built up-rural) 3.71 km2 and land without scrub feature 4.43 km2 of the

total area & as such there is no current fallow land because the satellite used is of March

month when most of the crop is towards senence or maturity.

E. Land-Use Based on Census Data

The land use of the study area has been studied by analysing the available secondary data

such as the District Primary Census Handbook of Rajkot for the year 2011.

For computation of the land use pattern in the study area based on the village-wise land use

data given in the census records, the geographical area of all settlements covered within the

study area, though many villages in the peripheries of the circular study area are partially

covered. Perfect delineation and quantification of land uses for the partially covered parts of

villages in the study area is not possible, hence the entire village area is considered for the

study, irrespective of its coverage within the study area circle.

The land use details from census-2011 (Village wise) are presented in Table 3-19. This

includes forests, cultivated area, cultivable waste and the area not available for cultivation.
