demolition
No There is no construction (1.5) or demolition (1.6) is not needed to attract this point.
6.4 From blasting or piling Yes Blasting is required to break the hard rock. This will generate noise and vibrations but measures will be taken to keep the noise/ vibration within the
12 | P a g e
permissible norms of limit by using nitrates for limited controlled blastingwhich will reduce the noise and vibration to considerable extend.
6.5 From construction or operational traffic
No Vide reasons mentioned earlier (1.5, 1.17) no construction or operational traffic is expected to cause any noise,vibration, emissions of light or heat.

Information/Checklist confirmation
Yes/No Details thereof (with approximate quantities/ rates wherever possible)
with source of information data7.1 From handling storage , use or
spillage of hazardous materials
No The handled material (3.1) does not contain any hazardous material therefore its spillage is not possible.

other effluent to water or the
land (expected mode and place
of discharge)
No Since no sewage (4.6, 5.5) or other effluents are envisaged for discharge, it will not contaminate water or the land.
7.3 By deposition of pollutants
emitted to air into the land or
into water
No Dust will be generated during crushing,blasting excavation and loading of mined out stone. These effects are localized, transitory and intermittent in nature. Even thendue care will be taken for dust emanation by deployment of movable type of water sprinkling system.
13 | P a g e
7.4 From any other sources No There will not be any other sources that may be expected to release any pollutants.
7.5 Is there a risk of long term
buildup of pollutants in the
environment from these
sources?
No There is no risk to build up pollutants in the environment as impact on air quality is localized; transitory and intermittent have no insignificant effect on the environment.
8. Risk of accidents during construction or operation of the project, which could affect human health or environment
S. No.
Information/Checklist confirmation
Yes/No Details thereof (with approximate quantities/ rates wherever possible) with source of information data
8.1 From explosions, spillages ,
fires etc. from storage,
handling, use or production of
hazardous substances
No As there is no storage, spillage, fire, etc. therefore no production of any hazardous substance is expected from any activity at any stage of the project.

8.3 Could the project be affected
by natural disasters causing
environmental damage (e.g.
floods, earthquakes,
landslides, cloudburst etc.)?
No This mining project is not located in earthquakes or landslide prone zone. It is located on hard and stable rock- safe zone. Although it is non-operational during rainy days also,therefore no risk of accident is envisaged during any natural disasters.
9. Factors which should be considered (such as consequential development) which could lead to environmental effects or the potential for cumulative impacts with other existing or planned activities in the locality.
14 | P a g e
S. No.
Information/Checklist confirmation
Yes/No Details thereof (with approximate quantities/ rates wherever possible)
with source of information data9.1 Lead to development of
supporting, lilies, ancillary development or development stimulated by the project which could have impact on environment e.g.:
Supporting infrastructure (roads, power supply, waste or waste water treatment, etc.)
Housing development Extractive industries Supply industries Others
No The project has no conventional structures of developmental work, solid or fluidal wastes or harmful emissions therefore it would not have any impact on the environment of any type of existing, developmental or other planned activities.
9.2 Lead to after-use of the site,
which could have an impact on
the environment
No The project would not have any adverse impact on the environment after-use of the site as at the close of the mine under reclamation it is proposed that this mine area to be water filled and used for pisciculture as well as will help in recharging the ground water and can also be used as localizes irrigation purpose.
9.3 Set a precedent for later
developments
Yes A better after use scenario which is likely to increase aesthetic beauty of the area in addition to benefit of better greenery would set a precedent for subsequent entrepreneurs who venture such projects.
9.4 Have cumulative effects due to
proximity to other existing or
planned projects with similar
effects
No There is no adversecumulativeenvironmental effect envisaged due to proximity on other existing or planned activities in the locality but a better planned and executed project will yield a better result individually, which in turn will give better
15 | P a g e
cumulative effect also.
