Whereas minimum value for the both day and nightcondition was recorded as 48.2 dB (A) & 43.1 dB (A). The noise levels at almost alllocation were found below the stipulated standards of CPCB for residential areas i.e. 55to 45 dBA at day and night time respectively.

Anticipated Environmental Impacts:

The proposed project shall create impacts on the environment in two distinctphases. First during the construction phase which may be regarded as temporary orShort term and these includes the activities related to site clearance, constructionand erection of main plant structures and equipment. The terrain of proposedproject site is flat. So land is suitable in all topography and geological aspects.Hence, there is no requirement of cutting and filling within the area proposed for thepower plant except leveling. Land for the proposed project is plain. Only surfacerunoffs are likely in Monsoon and thus the anticipated impacts are negligible.Secondly, during the operation stage impacts may be long term in terms of airenvironment. The REIA study and air dispersion modeling showed following results.

Executive Summary

Environmental Monitoring and Management Plan:

Well established environmental monitoring plan has been designed by the EPL forthe mitigation and monitoring of environmental impacts due to proposed projectactivity. The EMP shall have the following important components.

Since there is a possibility of fugitive dust from the construction activity, materialhandling and from the truck movement in the premises of the proposed plant, theindustry shall undertake extensive tree plantation program along the boundaries ofthe proposed plant site. Water will be sprayed on haul roads.The proposed plant is aimed to have a zero discharged and thus the generatedwastewater shall be recycled and used for in-house purposes as mentioned above.For noise impact mitigation provision for insulating caps and aids at the exit of noisesource on the machinery; shock absorbing techniques will be adopted to reduceimpact; ear muffs will be provided to the workers and it will be enforced to be usedby the workers; and green belt corridor shall be developed along the periphery ofthe plant.

High efficiency Electrostatic Precipitators (ESP) shall be installed to control theemission of ash particles.

Low NOx burners which generate NOx below 600 mg/Nm3 will be used in theBoiler. Limestone will be added to reduce SO2

Adequate green belt shall be provided around the plant area and along theinternal roads in the plant premises. About 660 acre of land shall be broughtunder green cover;

All internal roads shall be bituminized/ asphalted to reduce the fugitive dustdue to vehicular movement; and

Water spraying shall be practiced frequently at all dust generating areas viz.roads, raw material yard etc

The concentrations of PM, SO2, NOx, O3 and Hg in the ambient air within plant,outside the project boundaries and in the adjoining villages shall bemonitored as per the guidelines of PCB and MoEF. Meteorologicalparameters like dry bulb temperature, wet bulb temperature, wind speed,wind direction, rainfall and atmospheric pressure shall be recorded.

The main solid waste from the proposed plant shall be the ash. Fly ash andbottom ash. Dry utilization of ash is proposed. Ash will be utilized 100 %; whileduring emergency it will be conditioned and disposed off safely in ash pond.Fly ash notification 2009 would be complied. Appropriate handlingarrangement would be envisaged for disposal of fly ash from silos to nearbyindustries/agencies such as Jaypee Cement, Jaypee Bela Plant, PrisamCement, Satna Cement, Maihar Cement etc. by road tankers as well as someof the proposed cement plant such as Reliance and K.

Additional Studies:

Based on the TOR prescribed by the Ministry of Environment and Forest (MoEF)additional studies has been carried out for Hydrogeology and Source sustainabilityof water. The EPL power plant site occupies gently sloping area with feebleundulations. Hence, it does not involve significant cutting and filling of earth materialto alter the topography significantly. There is no perennial, surface water stream inclose proximity of the proposed power plant. Thus the EPL power plant shall notaffect the surface water regime in this region. The power plant is not going to extractany groundwater for power generation. Moreover, the effluents from the powerplant shall be treated and reused within the plant for activities like dust suppressionand greenbelt development to comply with the Zero Discharge Norm. Hence, itwill not affect the groundwater regime either. On the contrary, the power plantmanagement has planned to implement rainwater harvesting measures within thepower plant premises. Hence, in general, EPL power plant will not have adverseimpact on the ground hydrogeology regime in the study area.

Project Benefits:

The EPL firmly believes that Corporate have a special and continuing responsibilitytowards the society and they need to commit themselves in making a positivedifference to the society and sharing their gains with the stockholders. The CSRStrategy of the Group came into existence with the objective of fulfilling its long termvision, social responsibility of the company by supporting, encouraging andempowering the underprivileged sections of the society. Suitable budget forundertaking the CSR initiatives shall be provided by the Group throughout theimplementation of the project. Addition to this the following benefits are visualizeddue to proposed project in the vicinity.

Assess and address the basic rights and needs of the community. Allow all members of community to participate effectively in decision making

processes. Contribute to a net benefit for social and economic capacity. Contribute to long-term sustainable development. There is a very fine line between CSR that creates dependency and CSR that

develops a community or region in a sustainable way. CSR programmes that maintain good will for the company and address the

long-term developmental needs of communities in a sustainable way, withoutcreating a culture of dependency.

Shared values (business-institution and communities)
