Shri S.M.Khopkar, Asst. Geologist, Dist: Navsari mentioned lease areas are situated beyond 500 m distance from the nearest villages. Method of basalt removal involves drilling, blasting, sizing of mineral, etc. Top soil will be stacked separately for green belt development whereas overburden will be removed, stacked and refilled in mined out pits. None of the proposal involves intersection of ground water table. No wastewater generation is envisaged from mining activities. Domestic wastewater will be disposed off through septic tank – soak pit. Arrangement will be done to prevent contamination of surface runoff. Proposed air pollution control measures include use of only controlled blasting, water sprinkling on haul roads, tree plantation in periphery and road sides, etc. It is proposed to convert mined out pits into water reservoirs. After deliberations on various aspects, considering the proposed mitigation measures, the committee unanimously decided to recommend the above cases for grant of environmental clearance with stipulation of standard conditions as approved in 232nd SEAC meeting held on 15th April 2015.
Shri Jatin K Gor, Geological Asst. represented that sand excavation will be done only from dry river bed. It was also represented that none of the above lease areas is situated in coastal regulation zone. No any bridge piers / water intake wells / irrigation structures exist within 500 m distance from boundary of any of above lease areas. Sand is proposed to be excavated up to 3 m depth or water level, whichever is less. The committee observed that the lease holders have proposed to leave adequate setback distance from the river bank so as to avoid chances of river bank erosion. After discussion and detailed scrutiny of each of the cases, considering the proposed mitigation measures proposed by the lease holders, the committee unanimously decided to recommend above projects for grant of environmental clearance with stipulation of standard conditions as approved in 232nd SEAC meeting held on 15th April 2015.
