sector projects in and around the district.
There is no top soil. The waste material is not anticipated during the quarry operation, the
entire Earth is excavated and utilized. There is no top soil. It is proposed to exploit Earth of about
29505m3
for a period of Three years only.
(iii) Need for the project and its importance to the country and or region
The Earth quarrying project falls in the area of Tirunelveli District, Tamilnadu where scanty
agricultural activities are been carried out and the new industries are springing up in the district.
Earth is an important commercial product, with a number of applications. The applicant intends to
use for leveling and filling of low lying areas for public and private sector projects.
This project will give employment opportunities to 7 members directly. Mineral Industries of
the state of Tamilnadu provides employment opportunities for the people of the state as well as in the

particularly the environmental considerations gone into should be highlighted
The quarrying operation is proposed in the Patta Land and there is no any alternative site for
this project is not considered, the project is site specific.
(iv) Size or magnitude of operation
The total area of the project is about 1.47.25Ha. It is proposed to exploit Earth about
29505m3 by open cast method of shallow mining is proposed for quarry by deploying excavate
directly for a period of Three years only.
(v) Project description with process details (a schematic diagram/flow chart showing the
project layout, components of the project etc. should be given)
General Geology
The area is plain topography, Earth is composed of consolidated of silica and fine feldspar, the
Earth is formed by weathering and transportation of rock particles.
The applicant intends to use this Earth especially for leveling and filling of low lying areas for
public and private sector projects in and around the district.
OPEN CAST WORKING
Open cast method of shallow mining is proposed, Machineries like excavators are proposed
for quarrying Earth 3m depth. No drilling or blasting is proposed for this type of Earth quarrying, it is
a conventional eco friendly quarrying operation.
The Earth will be loaded directly to the trucks / Lorries for transportation to the needy
customers.
Details of Exploration
No exploration is carried out. The Earth is found clearly right from the surface in the lease
applied area.
Proposed Study to be carried out
As the quarrying operation is proposed to be carried out for a period of Three years only to a
depth of 3m further exploration or proposed study is redundant.

Method of Estimation of Reserves
The Geological plans demarcating the commercially viable Earth body has been prepared in
1: 1000 scales (Plate No: III). Totally three sections have been drawn, one section along the Length
wise as (X-Y) another two section drawn the width wise as (A-B), (C-D), to chosen the maximum
area cover under the lease in the Horizontal 1:1000 & vertical 1: 100 (Plate No: III).
The cross sectional area for the proved depth persistence of 3m has been worked out for the
section. The cross sectional area multiplied by its length of influence of the longer axis gives the
volume (insitu) in the cross sectional area. The sum total of the insitu reserves available within the
individual cross sectional area gives the geological reserves of the lease applied are.
As the mineable of Earth in the terms of cubic meter. The Geological resource, Mineable reserves are
given only in terms of cubic meter. The Details of estimation of Geological resource and mineable
reserves with reference to topography, Geological plan and section shown in (Plate No: III).

9.0ANALYSIS OF PROPOSAL (FINAL RECOMMENDATIONS)
(i) Financial and social benefits with special emphasis on the benefit to the local people
including tribal population, if any, in the area
The Excavated Earth is utilized for public and private sector projects for filling and leveling
the low lying areas, Besides the Earth also used for domestic housing and infrastructure projects of
the district. Due to this project many of the infrastructure development will be carried out in and
around the district on time, nearly 7 employees directly and 5 employees indirectly get employment
opportunity through this project. The detail furnished in this mining plan is based on information
provided by the state Government and lessee. By considering the merit of the project the permission

BASE LINE STUDIES OF PAZHAVOOR PART -1 EARTH QUARRY J.RAJKUMAR
BASE LINE STUDIES
The base line study is prepared for Pazhavoor Part -1 Earth Quarry project. Base line
studies provide a base data for regular Environmental Monitoring and Environmental Impact
Assessment (EIA).
The baseline study is provides bench mark for carrying out environmental Impact
assessment due to the course of quarrying and mining activities. The purpose of these studies is
to evaluate the benefited and adverse effect of developing activities on the neighborhood
environment and the area where the quarrying is proposed to carry out.
Mr. J.Rajkumar applied for Earth Quarry project lease for over an extent of 1.47.25Ha
in S.F.No:1004/2 (P) at Pazhavoor Part-1 Village of Radhapuram Taluk, Tirunelveli
District, Tamilnadu.
General approach to Environment
The Environmental besides data comprise of the features present of the site area its
includes environmental features such as forest area, conservation area, water bodies, industries,
wild life and fauna place of historic and importance etc.,
The data collected to cover the following.
1. Air environment
2. Noise Environment
3. Water environment
Air Environment
Ambient Air quality has been assessed through a net – Work of 3 ambient air quality
stations. Standard monitoring and analysis procedures were adopted for adopted for determining
the Air quality parameters. The PM10, PM2.5, SO2, NO2 are monitored as per prescribed
guidelines/methods. The AAQ monitored data for all locations for above parameters are shown
in Table No: 1

Noise Environment:
Sound can be defined as atmospheric or air vibration perceptible to ear. Noise is usually
unwanted or undesired sound. Consequently, particular sound can be noise to one person and not
to others or noise at one time and not at other time. Hence sound loud enough to be harmful is
called noise without regard to its characteristics. Noise is a form of pollution because it can cause
hearing impairment and psychological stresses.
The noise level measurement in the core zone and nearby buffer zone area was carried
out to evaluate the future impact on noise environment due to the proposed mining operation.
Noise measurements were carried out using Lutron SL 4001 sound level meter. The result of
hourly background noise levels for all locations are given in Table No: 2

Conclusion
The base line studies relents no hazardous levels of dust and noise and prevailing at the
project area. A well implemented environmental Management plan as discussed in the mining
plan will help in mitigation the adverse effects due to quarrying activities.
The movement of vehicles is very minimal. The entire vehicle used will be periodically
maintained by well experienced mechanic and kept under TNPCB standards, emission testing
will be carried out periodically and water will be sprinkled periodically to prevent dust into air.
The small quantity of non-humus rich surface soil will be removed and preserved in the
boundary barrier to facilitate the Afforestation.
Environmental care and attitude of preventing environment is inducted to the proponent
and advice to carry out and mitigate the minor impacts due to quarrying. Appropriate persons are
advice to get employed to protect the Environment and Ecology of the area.
