1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

1.1 BACKGROUND Patna Airport is one of the oldest airports in Bihar. Later on, this airport was

renamed as Jay Prakash Narayan International (JPNI) Airport. JPNI airport is

located at a distance of about 4.5 km South-West of Patna railway station. This

airport is maintained and operated by Airports Authority of India (AAI). It is one of

the busiest airports in India and the annual traffic of this airport increased by 32% in

the year 2015-16. Presently, the airport is handling 40 nos. (20 + 20) of scheduled

flights daily.

Operators like Air India, Indigo, Jet Airways and Go Air are presently operating with

40 scheduled flight movements per day. The Airport is suitable for operation of 'C'

type of aircrafts. It has one runway designated as 07/25 with an asphalt surface

measuring 2072m x 45m.

The airport is spread over an area of 247.16 acres. The land of airport comprise

lands of five villages namely Saghanpura, Dhira chak, Paharpur, Samanpura and

Aam kudha. Geographically, the JPNI Airport is located at latitude 25035'37" North

and longitude 85005'31" East at an elevation of 52m from mean seal level. Danapur

is located in North-Western direction at a distance of about 6kms and Patna railway

station is about 4.5 kms away in North-Eastern direction of JPNI Airport.

The existing domestic terminal building is more than 20 years old and it was

constructed on the basis of data for movement of passengers available during that

period. The existing facilities available at the airport does not conform to the latest

GRIHA 4 – Star rating.

Presently, the ATC Tower, Technical Block and Administrative Offices are also

housed in the Domestic Terminal Building. Initially, the building was designed for 0.5

million passengers per annum. However, due to increase in no. of flights and

passengers, approx. 1.8 million passengers are travelling per year from JPNI airport.

Due to this, the existing building is not sufficient to cater the present requirement of

the passenger load. Hence, there is a need to construct new terminal building.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Runway

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asphalt

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area



In view of the above, AAI proposes to modernize and construct a new domestic

terminal building along with other facilities so that it could conform to latest GRIHA 4

Star rating and ease the congestions being faced during peak passengers’ hours.

AAI has engaged Projects & Development India Limited (PDIL), a Government of

India Undertaking, which is a QCI-NABET accredited (Sl. No.117 as on 16.12.2016

in List-A) EIA Consultancy Organization for Airports.

1.2 PROJECT AT A GLANCE Some of the important features of the proposed project are briefed as under:

a) Construction of centrally new domestic terminal building with all modern

facilities and amenities conforming to GRIHA 4 Star Rating

b) Construction of ATC Tower-cum-Technical Block, Administrative Block

c) Construction of Multi Level Car Park

d) Construction of fire station, cargo terminal, MT Pool

e) Residential colony for about 120 nos. of AAI staff

1.3 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION

In the year 2009 the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) has developed a

Comprehensive Environmental Pollution Index (CEPI). CPCB has done a nation-

wide environmental assessment of Industrial Clusters based on CEPI and 43 such

industrial clusters in 16 States having CEPI greater than 70, on a scale of 0 to 100,

has been identified as Critically Polluted Area (CPA).

Fortunately, the entire State of Bihar including Patna does not fall in the list of 43

Critically Polluted Area (CPA) identified by Central Pollution Control Board. Hence,

carrying out developmental work at Patna Airport shall not constitute any statutory

binding related to existing environment in and around Patna Airport.



1.4 NEED & JUSTIFICATION

The need and justification of the proposed project is summarized as under:


constructed on the basis of data for movement of passengers available during

that period and it does not conform to the latest GRIHA 4 Star rating.

Presently, the movement of air passengers has increased with a rapid growth

and the facilities available in old domestic terminal is unable to serve the

incoming and outgoing passengers in smart way as per requirement and recent

norms.

The increased passenger load due to increase in no. of flights has posed a

congestion in the old terminal building leading to necessity for a new higher

capacity Terminal building.

1.5 CONCLUSION

Thus, the proposal for construction of new domestic terminal building at Patna

Airport can be seen as a corrective step towards providing modern facilities with

amenities to meet the requirement of GRIHA 4 Star rating. It will not only modernize

the 20 years old airport but also ease the congestion of the passengers during peak

hours.



2.0 INTRODUCTION 2.1 BACKGROUND

Jay Prakash Narayan International Airport (JPNI Airport) is a major airport in the

state of Bihar, and runs various flights to major cities of India. On the basis of

statistics related to passenger load, it is one of the busiest airports in India. It is

operated and maintained by the Airports Authority of India (AAI). As the domestic air

traffic is growing rapidly with time, this airport serves well in terms of passenger load

and domestic flight plans.

The airport is located at a distance of about 4.5 km South-West of Patna railway

station. This airport is maintained and operated by AAI. It is one of the busiest

airports in India and the annual traffic increased by 32% in the year 2015-16.

Presently, the airport is handling 40 nos. (20 + 20) of scheduled flights daily. The

present growth rate of passengers has been computed equivalent to 31.60% as

compared to the year 2014-15.

Operators like Air India, Indigo, Jet Airways and Go Air are presently operating with

40 scheduled flight movements per day. The Airport is suitable for operation of 'C'

type of aircrafts. It has one runway designated 07/25 with an asphalt surface

measuring 2072m x 45m.

The airport covers an area of 247.16 acres and located at an elevation of about

52 m above mean sea level. The airport comprise lands of five villages namely

Saghanpura, Dhira chak, Paharpur, Samanpura and Aam kudha. Geographically,

the JPNI Airport is located at latitude 25035'37" North and longitude 85005'31" East.

Danapur Cantonment is located in North-Western direction at a distance of about

6kms and Patna railway station is about 4.5 kms away in North-Eastern direction of

JPNI Airport.

Patna Airport was constructed 20 years back and the existing domestic terminal

building was constructed on the basis of data for movement of passengers available

during that period. The existing facilities available at the airport does not conform to

GRIHA 4 Star rating.

Presently the ATC Tower, Technical Block and Administrative Offices are also

housed in the Domestic Terminal Building. This is also creating problems during

peak passengers’ hours and this is one of the most important factors for congestion

and movement of passengers.

In view of the above, Airport Authority of India proposes to modernize and construct

a new domestic terminal building along with other facilities so that it could conform

to latest GRIHA 4 Star rating.

AAI has engaged Projects & Development India Limited (PDIL), a Government of

India Undertaking, which is a QCI-NABET accredited (Sl. No.117 as on 05.12.2016

that period and it does not conform to the latest GRIHA 4 Star rating.

Presently, the movement of air passengers has increased with a rapid growth

and the facilities available in old domestic terminal is unable to serve the

incoming and outgoing passengers in smart way as per requirement and norms.

The increased passenger load due to increase in no. of flights has posed a

congestion in the old terminal building leading to necessity for a new higher

capacity Terminal building.

6.0 ENVIRONMENTAL STATUS Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) has developed a Comprehensive

Environmental Pollution Index (CEPI). CPCB has done a nation-wide environmental

assessment of Industrial Clusters based on CEPI and 43 such industrial clusters in

16 States having CEPI greater than 70, on a scale of 0 to 100, has been identified

as Critically Polluted Area (CPA).

Fortunately, the entire State of Bihar including Patna does not fall in the list of 43

Critically Polluted Area (CPA) identified by Central Pollution Control Board. Hence,

carrying out developmental work at Patna Airport shall not constitute any statutory

binding related to existing environment in and around Patna Airport.

6.1 WASTE MANAGEMENT & DISPOSAL SYSTEM 6.1.1 Proposed Scheme for Wastewater Treatment

Recently developed art & options shall be utilized for treatment of raw water and

wastewater. Following units have been envisaged for raw water treatment facility:

b) Grit removal

c) Biological Treatment (Activated Sludge Process)

d) Clarifier

e) Sludge Thickening/Removal

f) Disinfection

6.1.2 Solid Waste

6.1.2.1 Solid Waste Generation

JPNI Airport Patna generates approx. 400 kg/d solid waste in the form of paper,

plastics, polyethylene bags and food waste, etc. Solid waste from the airport is

collected in waste bins.

The solid waste of JPNI airport has been classified as municipal waste as per

Municipal Wastes (Management and Handling) Rules, 2000. Solid waste is collected

in designated waste bins based on their types, placed at the strategic locations.

The solid waste handling and disposal services is outsourced to authorized agency

to ensure disposal of solid waste generated from the existing airport. Solid waste

generated in the aircrafts is also disposed-off at the designated waste collection

points from where it is picked up the garbage bags.

The collected garbage is transported in covered container and is arranged to

dispose-off after segregation of recyclable wastes as per provisions of Municipal

Wastes (Handling & Management) Rule 2000. After collection of garbage, garbage

bins are disinfected every day by sprinkling disinfectant powder by the agency.

Weekly washing of garbage bins is also carried out.

After collection of waste, solid waste management plan is followed as given below:



o Segregation of recyclable and non-recyclable wastes.

o Disposal of recyclable wastes for recycling.

o Composting of biodegradable organic of wastes for captive use

o Disposal of segregated wastes to common municipal waste landfill Site

The above practice with respect to solid waste management shall be extended after

establishment of proposed project.

7.0 EMPLOYMENT GENERATION It is envisaged that the proposed project would generate sufficient employment

opportunity during construction phase. For carrying out construction related

activities, it is envisaged to engage skilled, semi-skilled and unskilled workers from

local area to the maximum extent.

8.0 REHABILITATION & RESETTLEMENT PLAN

The JPNI Airport is spread over an area of about 247.16 acres of land. The total

area of land is under the administrative possession of AAI. The proposed new

constructions shall be carried out at existing premises of JPNI Airport. Hence, any

planning with respect to Rehabilitation & Resettlement is not applicable.

9.0 PROJECT SCHEDULE & COST ESTIMATES

9.1 PROJECT SCHEDULE

The date of start of construction shall be after grant of Environmental Clearance

(EC) from MoEF&CC. The project is scheduled to be completed within 48 months

after issuance of EC.

9.2 PROJECT COST
