Introduction
1.1 PREFACE
An Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is an assessment of the
possible impacts that a proposed project may have on the environment -
consisting of the environmental, social and economic aspects. It is an
assessment and management tool that evaluates the possible impacts,
positive or negative, that a proposed project may have on the
environment. EIA systematically examines both beneficial and adverse
consequences of the project and ensures that these effects are taken into
account during project design. The purpose of the assessment is to
ensure that decision makers consider the ensuing environmental impacts
when deciding to proceed with a project. In India, Ministry of
Environment and Forests has defined elaborated “Environmental
Clearance (EC)” framework along with requirements for preparing
Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) under the Environmental
(Protection) Act, 1986 (Environmental Impact Assessment Notification,
2006) for establishing/expanding and industry/development projects.
1.2 PURPOSE OF THE REPORT
Industrialization and infrastructure development have increased economic
growth and improved living standards of people in India. However,
development has led to rapid consumption of natural resources and
increased emissions of waste. To control the pollutions from industrial
activity, government has framed regulations which are governed by
Ministry of Environment, Forest & Climate Change in India. Environment
Impact analysis is mandatory as per the Environment Impact Assessment
(EIA) Notification issued by Ministry of Environment, Forest & Climate
Change (MoEF&CC), New Delhi dated 14th September, 2006 and its
subsequent amendment; for setting up a new projects or activities, or

b) Water requirement:
Total water requirement (Industrial + Domestic + Greenbelt) will be 178
KLD; out of which 103 KLD will be fresh water requirement and 75 KLD
will be recycle/treated water. Unit will satisfy its fresh water demand from
Bore well. Major water demand will be industrial – mainly process (45
KLD), Scrubber (14 KLD), Washing (25 KLD), Cooling (45 KLD) and Boiler
(30 KLD). Detailed break-up of each water consumption and water

3.8 AMBIENT AIR QUALITY
3.8.1 Introduction
To quantify the impact of the proposed project on the ambient air quality,
it is necessary to evaluate the existing ambient air quality of the area.
The ambient air quality monitoring with respect to the study area of 10
km radius around the project site was done for the baseline information.
3.8.2 Design Network for Ambient Air Quality Monitoring Stations
The baseline status of the ambient air quality has been assessed through
a scientifically designed ambient air quality monitoring network. The
design of monitoring network is based on the following considerations:
Topography/Terrain of the study area
Populated areas within the region
Prediction of maximum concentrations and distances of their likely
occurrence under prevailing meteorological conditions
Representation of regional background
Representatives of likely impact areas
Ambient Air Quality Monitoring (AAQM) stations were placed at eight
locations with due consideration to the above mentioned points.
3.8.3 Reconnaissance
Reconnaissance was undertaken to establish the baseline status of air
environment in the study region. The prime objective of the NAAQ
survey, within 10 km radial study area around the proposed project, was

3.9 WATER ENVIRONMENT
3.9.1 Hydrogeology of study area
Precambrian hard rocks, semi-consolidated Mesozoic and tertiary
formations and unconsolidated quaternary alluvial deposits form multi-
layer aquifer system in the district. Groundwater occurs both under
phreatic and confined conditions, however its development is restricted
depending upon the aquifer geometry and yield characteristic of
individual aquifer and/or ground water quality of the formation water.
Occurrence of groundwater can be divided in two groups. Hydrogeological
Map of the district is presented in figure below.
a) Ground water in fissured formation (Hard rock): The north-
eastern part of the district mainly in Satlasna taluka is occupied by meta
sediments. The occurrence and movement of ground water is governed
by secondary porosity i.e. thickness and extent of weathering and size &
interconnections of fractures/joints. These formations generally don‟t
form good aquifer system. The depth of dug wells range from 15-30 mbgl
and of bore wells from 100-120 mbgl. Depth to water level in the dug
wells varies from 5 -14 mbgl and in bore wells from 15 to 60 mbgl. The
yield of wells range from 30-120 m3/day with an average of 75 m3/day.
b) Groundwater in porous formations (Sedimentaries): Major part
of the district is underlain by post Miocene alluvium and older
sedimentary formations. These sediments are mainly consisted by Coarse
sand, gravel, kankar, silt, clay and clay stones. Groundwater occurs both
under phreatic and confined conditions in erinaceous horizons within
San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad
Draft EIA Report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 3-11
sedimentaries. The occurrence and movement of groundwater is mainly
controlled by inter granular pore spaces.
Two major aquifer units have been identified the upper unit is mostly
phreatic but becomes semi confined to confined in some parts. It is
designated as aquifer A and consists of relatively coarse grained
sediments. The lower unit comprising a few hundred meters of alternating
sand and clay beds form confines aquifer system. It is subdivided into B,
C D and E in post Miocene sediments and aquifer F and G in the Miocene
sediments. Himmatnagar sandstone (Cretaceous) forms local aquifer in
the north eastern part and has been designated as aquifer H. The post
Miocene aquifers are generally coarse to fine grained sand with occasional
gravel beds. The Miocene aquifers are mainly fine to medium grained
sand, sandstone inter bedded with clay, clay stone and siltstone.
Himmatnagar sandstone is generally coarse grained and friable.
Aquifer parameters:
(i) Unconfined Aquifers:
Aquifer A: Specific capacity of phreatic aquifer in the district ranges from
31 m3/hr/m to less than 1 m3/hr/m and transmissivity from 30 m2/day to
1000m2/day.
(ii) Confined Aquifers:
Aquifer B: Specific capacity ranges from 1.8 m3/hr/m to 49 m3/hr hr/m.
Transmissivity ranges between 47 and 3400 m2/day, however it is mostly
between 200-600 m2/day. Storativity ranges from 0.6 - 12.3 x 10-4.
Aquifer C: Specific capacity calculated for wells at Saola and Charasan
ranges from 21.3 and 2.8 m2/day/m respectively. Transmissivity was
94m2/day at Charasan EW.
Aquifer D: Specific capacity calculated for EW at Dhinoj was found to be
1.3 m3/hr/day, the transmissivity being 69 m2/day.
Aquifer E: No pumping test carried in this aquifer.
Aquifer F & G: Specific capacity calculated for wells at Charasan and
Pilwai was 1.1 m3/hr/m and 1.7m3/hr/m respectively. Transmissivity was
59 m2/day and 70 m2/day.

Hydrogeological Map of Mehsana District
3.9.2 Ground Water Resources
Ground water from the confined aquifer system is under exploitation in a
major way for various uses in the district. Tube wells range in depth from
120 to 300 m and have copious yield. The piezometric surface of confined
aquifer ranges from less than 60 mbgl to more than 150 m bgl. However,
in major part, it is more than 90 m bgl. Because of excessive ground
water development, consistent decline of piezometric surface is observed
in the district.
Eight talukas in the district are categorized as over exploited and one as
critical. Project site is located in Kadi Taluka, categorized as Over
exploited. Various rainwater harvesting schemes depending on the
suitable hydrogeological conditions have been constructed in the district
viz. Check dams, Recharge tube wells, deepening the of the village ponds
etc. and have shown good impact on the groundwater scenario.

3.10 WATER QUALITY
3.10.1 Introduction
Water quality assessment is one of the essential components of EIA
study. Such assessment helps in evaluating the existing health of water
body and suggesting appropriate mitigation measures to minimize the
potential impact from development projects. The water quality at the site
and other locations within the 10-km impact zone was monitored during
the study period. The purpose of the study is to:
Assess the water quality characteristics for critical parameters;
Evaluate the impact on agricultural productivity, habitat conditions
recreational resources and aesthetics in the vicinity; and
Predict the likely impacts on water quality due to the project and
related activities.
Reconnaissance survey was undertaken and monitoring locations were
finalized based on:
Location of residential areas representing different activities/likely
impact areas; and
Likely areas, which can represent baseline conditions.
3.10.2 Sampling Frequency, Techniques & Methodology
Eight surface water and Eight groundwater samples were collected during
the study period. Ground water samples were collected from the existing
bore wells, while surface water was collected from ponds by surface
water sampler. These samples were taken as grab samples. Necessary
precautions were taken for preservation of samples. Sampling locations
with source & date of sampling is given in Table 3.7.
The samples collection procedure was adopted from „Standard Methods‟
for the examination of Water and Wastewater published by American
Public Health Association (APHA) and IS 10500-2012. The samples were
analyzed for Physico-chemical parameters to assess the existing water
quality of the area (based on IS: 10500-2012 & APHA/AWWA, 23rd
edition). The water sampling locations marked within the study area and
the result of the analysis (ground water and surface water) is presented

3.11 NOISE ENVIRONMENT
Noise can be defined as an unwanted sound. The definition of noise as
unwanted sound implies that it has an adverse effect on human beings
and their environment. The noise level variation can be temporal, spatial.
It interferes with speech and hearing and is intense enough to damage
hearing or is otherwise annoying. Noise can also disturb natural wildlife
and ecological system. It is therefore, necessary to measure both the
quality as well as the quantity of noise in and around the proposed site.
3.11.1 Instrument used for Sampling and Monitoring
The intensity of sound energy in the environment is measured in a
logarithmic scale and is expressed in a decibel, dB(A) scale. Sound Level
Meter (SLM) is used for the collection of data related to noise at an
interval of one hour. The day noise levels have been monitored during
6:00 am to 10:00 pm and night noise levels during 10:00 pm to 6:00 am
at all the nine locations. Noise levels recorded at each station are
computed for equivalent noise levels. Noise monitoring methodology is
given in below Table 3.8.

zones viz. industrial, commercial, and residential and silence zones under
the Environment Protection Act (1986). These standards are given in
Table 3.23.
3.11.4 Results
The noise levels of various locations are given in Table 3.22. The
monitored noise level in the day time Leq (Ld) varies from 51.4 to 54.5
dB(A) and the night time Leq (Ln) varies from 40.0 to 43.3 dB(A) within
the study area. Higher noise value of 54.5 dB(A) was recorded during day
time at Primary School of Rajpur & lower noise value of 40.0 dB(A) was
recorded during night time at village Irana.
3.11.5 Conclusion
Based on the observations made during the studies, it is concluded that;
the noise levels recorded at various locations in the study area show
considerable fluctuations because of changes in traffic movement,
commercial and other domestic activities in the study area. Overall the
ambient noise level in the monitored locations was found to be within the
permissible limits stipulated for residential, industrial areas, silence and
commercial zone.
3.12 SOIL ENVIRONMENT
Soils may be defined as a thin layer of earth‟s crust that serves as a
natural medium for the growth of plants. It is the unconsolidated mineral
matter that has been subjected to and influenced by genetic and
environmental factors. Soils serve as a reservoir of nutrients for plants
and crops and also provide mechanical anchorage and favorable tilth.
The objective of the soil sampling is:
To determine the baseline soil characteristics;
To monitor the impact on soil in long run.
3.12.1 Soil sampling locations
Soil quality of the study area is one of the important components for
environment impact assessment. The composite soil samples were
collected from the study area from eight locations (Nr. Project site,
Laxmipura, Chandarda, Mathasur, Rajpur, Irana, Untva and
Bileshvarpura) and were analyzed for different parameters. The location

Quadrate Sampling Method:
A quadrat (or plot-based) survey is a quantitative examination of species
distribution & abundance. Quadrats are more likely to detect
San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad
Draft EIA Report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 3-21
inconspicuous species because a smaller area is sampled in a
concentrated search. The survey was carried out for the vegetation
ground cover found in the road edges by 1 m2 quadrat and study on the
edge effect due to rapid industrialization and urbanization.
3.13.3 Floral species in the study area
Flora is basically the plant life that is present in a particular region or
habitat at a particular time. List of flora found in the study area is
tabulated in Table 3.25.
3.13.4 Fauna in the study area
Fauna is the animal life that is present in a particular region or habitat at
a particular time. Irrespective of its unfriendly terrain, Gujarat gives
shelter to a variety of animals and birds. They live in smaller herds and
thrive mainly on wild grasses and various types of shrubs. Faunal
biodiversity with their scientific names and common names is presented
in Table 3.26.
3.14 SOCIO-ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT
An essential part of environmental study is socio-economic environment
incorporating various facts related to socio-economic conditions in the
area, which deals with the total environment. Socio economic study
includes demographic structure of the area, provision of basic amenities
viz., housing, education, health and medical services, occupation, water
supply, sanitation, communication, transportation as well as feature of
aesthetic significance such as temples, historical monuments etc. at the
baseline level. This would help in visualizing and predicting the possible
impact depending upon the nature and magnitude of the project. Socio-
economic study of an area provides a good opportunity to assess the
socioeconomic conditions of an area. This study will possibly make a
change in living and social standards of the particular area benefitted due
to the project. The gross economic production of the area will be
increased substantially due to the existence of this project. It can
undoubtedly be said that this plant will provide direct and indirect
employment and improve the infrastructural facilities and standards of
living of the area.

3.14.1 Objective of the study
The objectives of this socio-economic report consist of:
To conduct socio-economic assessment study in lease Area
To help in providing better living standards.
To know the current socio-economic situation in the region to cover
the sub sectors of education, health, sanitation, water and food
security.
To provide employment opportunities.
3.14.2 Land use pattern and infrastructure
The land use pattern indicates the manner in which different parts of land
in an area is being utilized or non-utilized. It is an important indicator of
environmental health; human activity and a degree of inter play between
these two. Even though the soil quality, water availability and climate
have strong influence on agriculture and vegetation, the human activity
may alter the natural environment to a large extent to suit human needs.
Unnatural land use often triggers rapid environmental deterioration and
disturbs ecological balance. In census records, major land use
classifications are; Forests, Culturable land, Culturable wasteland and
area not available for cultivation. Culturable land is further classified as:
irrigated and un-irrigated. Area not available for cultivation includes lands
put to non-agriculture uses as well as barren and uncultivable lands.
The main land use in area is for dwellings, infrastructure and related
activities. However, the land use pattern for rural areas is discussed
below. The information is preliminary based on 2011 Census as depicting
in Table 3.28. Total land area is 26340.25 ha, out of that Irrigated area
is 13163.1 ha and it constitutes 49.97%. 7848.3 ha are un-irrigated by
source and it constitutes 29.79% of total land area. The study area
consist of Cultivable wasteland is 1086.8 ha (4.12%). Area not available
for cultivation is 690.1 ha & it constitute 2.62%.
3.14.3 Demographic and Socio-Economic Environment
The demographic and Socio-economic details of the study area are
discussed below. These are primarily based on census data of 2011. Data
on number of households, population as well as literacy and employment
pattern in the study area have been presented in Table 3.29. The

Anticipated Environmental Impacts &
Mitigation Measures
4.1 GENERAL
Environmental Impact can be defined as any change in environmental
conditions which may be adverse or beneficial; occurred due to action or
set of actions under consideration. It can be assessed by identifying the
sources of the impact and predicting the same. The identification of
environmental impacts has been made by co-relating the relationship
between project activity and environmental parameters. As a part of
present EIA study, anticipated environmental impacts associated with the
project activity of the unit have been identified. The project activities are
usually divided into two phases: Construction Phase and Operation Phase.
For evaluation of impacts due to proposed activities, baseline data has
been utilized. Changes in the environmental parameters & their impact in
terms of short term or long term, positive or negative, reversible &
irreversible are identified & predicted.
The next step is prediction of impacts, which is an important component
in environmental impact assessment process. Several techniques and
methodologies are in vogue for predicting the impacts due to proposed
industrial development on physical, chemical, biological and socio-
economic components of environment. Such predictions delineate
contribution in existing baseline condition for the proposed project. The
additional impacts due to proposed activities are analyzed by keeping in
mind the baseline status. This helps to assess the assimilative capacity of
the environment and in turn the gravity of the impacts. Based on the
identification & prediction of the nature of impact, it can be evaluated
qualitatively and quantitatively.
In this chapter, the effect due to construction & operational activity of the
proposed project is explained.
San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad
Draft EIA report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 4-2
4.2 IDENTIFICATION OF IMPACT
This chapter deals with the assessment of project impacts on
environment. Mitigation measures are suggested to minimize the likely
negative impacts. The network method (Cause - effect) was adopted to
identify potential impact of the proposed activity. It includes stepwise
study of relationship between an activity and its environmental
parameters. This method involves in the “Road Map” type of approach to
the identification of second & third order effect. The basic idea is to
account for the project activity & identify the type of impact that could
initially occur followed by the identification of secondary and tertiary
impact.
The project will have impacts of varying magnitude on different
environmental components. These impacts could be categorized as -
Primary impacts, i.e. impacts which occur as a direct result of the
project activities.
Secondary and tertiary impacts, i.e. impacts that occur as a result
of primary impacts.
4.2.1 Identification of Impacting Activities
Various activities involved in the project are divided viz.:
A. Construction phase activities: impacts are immediate, in the vicinity
and sporadic
B. Operation phase activities: impacts are long term, in wide area and
continuous
The activities identified for the project under each phase are:
Construction phase
Excavation
Foundation & Civil work
Transportation of construction materials, equipments & machineries
Installation of equipments & machineries
Operation phase
Plant operation
Material storage & handling
Utilities and services
Green belt development
San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad
Draft EIA report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 4-3
4.2.2 Identification of Environment Attributes
There are various types of impacts arise due to the proposed activities
which will be evaluated considering the following environment parameters
in construction and operational phase,
Impact on Topography
Impact on Air Environment
Impact on Water Environment
Impact on Noise Environment
Impact on Land Environment (Hazardous/solid waste generation)
Impact on Biological Environment
Impact on Socio-Economic Environment
Impact on Occupational Health & Safety
4.3 IMPACT ON TOPOGRAPHY
Unit will be situated at Survey No. 1384, Village: Rajpur, Tal: Kadi, Dist:
Mehsana, Gujarat. Proposed land is already converted from agriculture to
non-agriculture for industrial purpose. During the construction, excavated
soil will be restored to its original shape. Thus, the impact during the
construction is reversible, for short terms and insignificant. Construction
of plant & building will be carried out for proposed unit. During the
operational phase of the project, no major impact is envisaged on the
topography.
4.4 IMPACT ON AIR ENVIRONMENT
a. Construction Phase impact & mitigation measures
During construction phase, there will be chances of dust generation due
to the construction activities to be carried out as per the plant design. It
will be limited up to working area only and not likely to spread in wider
area. To mitigate the impact, regular sprinkling of the water will be done.
Vehicular traffic may lead to increased concentration pollutants through
exhaust gases, affecting the ambient air quality of surrounding areas;
vehicles only with PUC certificates will be allowed. However, this effect
remains localized near to the plant site and during the time of vehicular
movement only. Thus, overall impact is envisaged as short-term negative
& reversible in nature. Hence, looking to the overall facts described
San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad
Draft EIA report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 4-4
above, it can be concluded that, the impacts on air due to the
construction & erection activities will be minimum or negligible.
b. Operational phase impact & mitigation measures
Long term impacts on the air quality are anticipated due to operational
activities. It depends on various factors like process technology,
operation & maintenance, raw material, fuel, air pollution control
measures. For the study of impact assessment for air environment, all
probable emissions are studied including fugitive emission. The sources
and expected emission level are described in below section.
Emission from the project
Flue gas emission will be from stack attached with boilers, Hot Air
Generator & Thermic Fluid Heater, where low sulfur coal will be used as
fuel; and standby D.G. Set in which Diesel will be used as fuel. Process
emission will be from the vents attached to Reaction Vessels of
Multipurpose Plant – 2 sets and Reaction Vessel of Chloranil. Additionally,
spray dryer is also considered as source of process emission. Main
pollutants from flue gas stack will be SPM, SO2 and NOx and PM, SO2 and
HCl are pollutants emit from process.
Mitigation measures
All the flue gas stacks except stack of D.G. Set will be equipped with
Cyclone & bag filter as APCM. Spray dryer will be equipped with Cyclone
+ Scrubber + Sub merged type gas bubbling tank. Alkali scrubbers will
be provided on process gas stack attached to reaction/ process vessels (2
sets) and water scrubber will be provided on process gas stack attached
to Reaction/ Process vessels (Chloranil) as APCM. The details of process
gas stacks with their APC measures & height are given in Table 2.8.
4.4.1 Air Pollution Dispersion Modeling of stack
Following sub-section give air dispersion modeling details for prediction of
changes in GLC of pollutants emitted from the above stacks.
Objective: The objective of dispersion modeling is to predict the ground
level concentration during the operation of the project and its impact on
ambient air quality of the area concentrations and compare with
applicable NAAQS.
San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad
Draft EIA report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 4-5
Model used: The impact on air quality due to emissions from single
source or group of sources is evaluated by use of mathematical models.
The impacts of air pollutants were predicted using Gaussian air dispersion
model, which is selected on the basis of existence of multiple point
sources within the industrial complex and the plain terrain at the project
site. In order to predict the impact of air pollutants on ambient air
quality, ISCST3 model (Industrial Source Complex – Short Term
(ISCST3) dispersion model) of United State Environmental Protection
Agency (USEPA) was used by considering guidelines stipulated by CPCB
for air pollution dispersion modeling. The Gaussian model provides
estimates of pollutant concentrations at various receptor locations.
It is an hour-by-hour steady state Gaussian model which takes into
account the following:
Terrain adjustments
Stack-tip downwash
Gradual plume rise
Buoyancy-induced dispersion, and
Complex terrain treatment and consideration of partial reflection
Plume reflection off elevated terrain
Building down wash
Partial penetration of elevated inversions is accounted for Hourly
source emission rates, exit velocity and stack gas temperature
Only two stability conditions based on the meteorology aspects were used
to calculate the theoretical maximum ground level concentration is
comparing the actual data and data generated from mathematical
modeling, it highlights that the stability condition E & A-B were
predominant in the region.
Following are the assumptions made while using the model:
- No dry and wet depletion of pollutants
- Receptors are on flat terrain
The key emitted pollutants will be SPM, SO2, & NOx & HCl.
4.4.2 Micrometeorology
Hourly micrometeorological data collected during the study period
(January 2019 to March 2019) have been used for modeling. The
San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad
Draft EIA report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 4-6
hourly wind speed, solar insolation & total cloudiness during day time and
wind speed & total cloudiness during night time were used to determine
the hourly atmospheric stability classes (defined by Pasquill and Gifford
as A to F, A being most unstable and F being most stable). The hourly
stability classes were determined based on the technique suggested by
Turner.
Turner’s system used for determining the stability classes is as follows:
- For day or night: If total cloud cover (TC) = 10/10 and ceiling
<7000 ft (2134 m), NR=0
- For night-time (defined as period from one hour before sunset to
one hour after sunrise):
a) If TC<4/10, use NR = -2
b) If TC>4/10, use NR = -1
- For daytime: determine isolation class number (IN)
a) If TC<5/10, use NR=IN
b) If TC>5/10, modify IN by the sum of the following applicable
criteria
If ceiling<7000 ft (2134 m), modification = -2
If ceiling>7000 ft but <16000 ft (4877 m), modification = -1
- If TC=10/10 and ceiling>7000 ft, modification = -1 and let modified
value of IN=NR, except for day-time NR cannot be <+1.
During the study period, stability calculated based on above-mentioned
Turner method gives average stability as A-B class during Day time and E
class during Night time.
4.4.3 Input data
Stack emissions data have been used for prediction of incremental GLC
values of SPM, SO2, NOx and HCl using one season meteorological data
during (January, 2019 to March, 2019). Input data includes
quantitative expected emission levels, temperature, and mixing height
from the stack. Input data is given in Table 4.1.
4.4.4 Receptor Network
Uniform polar grid and ambient air monitoring locations are considered as
discrete Cartesian receptor network for entire study area of 10 km radius.
San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad
Draft EIA report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 4-7
4.4.5 Output of model (24-hourly GLCs)
The 24-hourly average Ground Level Concentration (GLC) values from
project have been computed for SPM, SO2, NOx & HCl considering
topographical features around the plant & applicable stability classes. The
maximum 50 (24-hr) average concentration values for SPM, SO2, NOx &
HCl are given in Table 4.3 to 4.6. Corresponding Isopleths for 24-hourly
predicted value is generated which is shown in Figure 4.1 to 4.4.
It may be noted from the computed result for the proposed scenario that,
the highest 24-hourly average GLCs value of SPM, SO2, NOx & HCl from
the proposed activity are 4.161 g/m3, 3.154 g/m3, 1.702 g/m3 and
0.099 g/m3, respectively. These GLCs are expected to occur at a
distance of 1.0 km from the source in E direction. With this marginal
contribution due to the proposal of the project, the levels of PM10, SO2,
NOx & HCl will remain well below the 24-hourly ambient air quality
standards for SO2 & NOx (80 g/m3), PM10 (100 g/m3), PM2.5 (60 g/m3)
prescribed by CPCB.
4.4.6 Incremental & cumulative concentration of pollutants
The maximum incremental GLCs due to project for SPM, SO2, NOx, HCl is
superimposed on the baseline concentrations recorded during the study
period to arrive at the likely resultant concentrations after
implementation of the proposed plant. The cumulative concentrations
(baseline + incremental) of the project is tabulated below at Table 4.2.
4.4.7 Conclusion
The modeling study proved that, the air emissions from the proposed
activities would not likely to cause any significant impact on the ambient
air quality of the study area. The ambient air quality around project site
will remain within the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS)
prescribed for residential area.
4.5 IMPACT ON WATER ENVIRONMENT
The main sources of impact on water environment will be due to
withdrawal of fresh water from the ground during construction and
operation phase. These are discussed below.
San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad
Draft EIA report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 4-8
a. Construction Phase impacts & mitigation measures
The water requirement for various purposes will be met from ground
water. During construction work, water requirement is estimated to be
about 10-15 KLD depending upon nature of construction work. In addition
to this, about 1-2 KLD fresh water will be required for domestic activities
of the construction staff which will also be met through the same source.
There will be no wastewater generation from the construction work.
Hence, it can be concluded that there will be no adverse impact during
construction phase.
b. Operational Phase impacts & mitigation measures
Total water requirement (Industrial + Domestic + Greenbelt) at Urmit
Chemicals will be 178 KLD; out of which 103 KLD will be fresh water
requirement & 75 KLD will be recycle/treated water. Unit will satisfy its
fresh water demand from groundwater source. Major water demand will
be industrial – mainly Process (45 KLD), Scrubber (14 KLD), Washing (25
KLD), Cooling (45 KLD) and Boiler (30 KLD).
Total wastewater generation will be 132.5 KLD, of which 7.5 KLD will be
domestic wastewater and the rest will be industrial wastewater. The main
source of the industrial wastewater generation will be from process (80
KLD), Scrubber (2 KLD), Washing (25 KLD) and utilities (Boiler & cooling
- 18 KLD). Comprehensive details are mentioned in Table 2.6; Water
balance diagram in Figure 2.5 in Chapter 2.
The wastewater generated will be segregated into two streams for
treatment. Process wastewater will be treated in “ETP-1”. Wastewater
from utilities (cooling & boiler), washing and scrubber will be treated in
“ETP-2”. Effluent from “ETP-1” will be sent to Common Spray Drying
facility at Chhatral Environment Management System Pvt. Ltd. for
evaporation. Effluent from “ETP-2” will be sent to RO and permeate will
be reused; RO reject will be sent to common Spray Drying facility.
Domestic wastewater will be discharged into soak pit.
c. Impact Assessment
As fresh water will be met from Bore well water supply, unit will balance
it by recharging ground water during the monsoon. Hence, insignificant
impact envisage on ground water. Industry will develop rain water
San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad
Draft EIA report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 4-9
harvesting structures nearby project area. So, there will not be any major
impact on the water environment due to proposed activities.
Mitigation Measures:
Minimum use of water will be done for construction phase.
Maximum reuse of water from RO during operational phase.
Regular maintenance of rain water harvesting structures shall be
undertaken to have effective recharge.
4.6 IMPACT ON NOISE ENVIRONMENT
Any unwanted sound that creates disturbance in hearing is termed as
Noise. Hence, it is important to assess the present noise quality of the
area in order to predict the potential impact of future noise levels due to
the project.
a. Construction Phase Impact & mitigation measures
During the construction phase at Urmit Chemicals impacts on noise level
will occur due to the noise generation from new equipments/machineries
as well as some impact due to transportation. Mainly the impacts of
increased noise levels during construction are likely to occur due to
increase movement of trucks & other diesel-powered material handling
equipment. The impacts of noise during the construction would be
restricted to the site only and will be temporary. PPEs like ear muff/ear
plug will be provided to the workers. Regular maintenance & lubrication
of construction equipment & machineries will be undertaken to reduce the
noise generation. Thus, it is envisaged that the impacts on noise during
the construction phase would be insignificant after mitigation measure.
b. Operational Phase Impact & mitigation measures
During operation of Urmit Chemicals, noise levels will increase due to
manufacturing process activities. The noise anticipated from the project
will be confined only within plant boundary. Adequate greenbelt will be
developed for prevention of noise propagation outside plant premises.
Oiling/lubrication & preventive maintenance will be done to reduce noise
generation at source to the permissible limit. However, at places where
noise levels may exceed the limit, PPEs will be provided to workers.
Adequate noise control measures such as silencers, anti-vibration pad
etc. will be provided. All the equipment will be designed/ operated in such
San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad
Draft EIA report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 4-10
a way that the noise level in work place shall not exceed 85 dB(A) as per
the OSHA Standard. During operation, the protective measures like PPEs
(ear muff, ear plug) will be provided & the exposure duration of
workers/other personnel to noise will be managed as per OSHA standard.
The results of baseline monitoring carried out in the region are presented
in Chapter-3. The results are below the standards prescribed for
Industrial environment. It can be concluded that, the impact on noise
environment will be long term but insignificant.
4.7 IMPACT ON LAND ENVIRONMENT
The main source of impact on land and soil environment results due to
construction activities and hazardous waste disposal.
a. Construction Phase Impact & mitigation measures
The construction activities like excavation, clearing, leveling & vehicular
movements will entail change in the landscape, which are expected to be
of short duration and insignificant. Unit will provide sanitation facilities for
the staff engaged in construction work which will prevent the impacts on
land. Thus, there will not be any issue of impacts on land during the
construction phase.
b. Operational Phase impact (Solid/Hazardous Waste)
During the operation phase, it is identified that the impacts on land would
occur due to the contamination by Solid/Hazardous wastes. The
hazardous wastes are the major source of impacts on land. Hazardous
waste generation from project must be considered to identify the
potential impacts. At Urmit Chemicals, entire quantity of the hazardous
wastes will be stored in the isolated hazardous waste storage area within
premises having impervious platform having RCC floor, leachate
collection system & roof cover and disposed as per the scientific method.
Main source of hazardous waste will be wastewater treatment, generating
ETP sludge (150 MTPM). Hazardous waste from process will be HCl (20-
22%) (52 MTPM), Spent Sulphuric acid (780 MTPM), Calcium Thio
Sulphite (78 MTPM), Acetic Acid (104 MTPM), Sodium Bisulphite (260
MTPM), Iron sludge (52 MTPM) and Spent catalyst (0.5 MTPM).
Discarded containers (10000 Nos./month) /liners (1.0 MTPM) and used
lubricating oil (0.5 KL/yr).
San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad
Draft EIA report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 4-11
Mitigation Measures:
Entire quantity of hazardous waste will be handled & disposed as per
Hazardous & Other waste (Management & Transboundary Movement)
Rules, 2016. ETP sludge will be disposed of at approved TSDF site. Iron
sludge will be sold to cement manufacturer or disposed at TSDF site. HCl,
Calcium Thio Sulphite will be sold to actual users under Haz. Waste rule,
Spent Sulphuric acid (H2SO4), Acetic Acid, Sodium Bisulphite will be
reused within the process or sold to actual users. Spent catalyst will be
sent for regeneration to the suppliers. Discarded containers/liners will be
disposed of by selling to registered recyclers; used lubricating oil will be
disposed by selling to registered recyclers. The unit will provided isolated
area with impervious flooring & roof cover for the storage of hazardous
waste. No adverse impact on the land environment is likely to occur.
Hence, no significant negative impact is envisaged on the surrounding soil
quality.
4.8 IMPACT ON BIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENT
a. Construction phase impact & mitigation measures
This is a Greenfield project; hence minor cutting of trees/shrubs will be
done to clean the area. However, it will be balanced by developing
greenbelt within premises and along the roads. Various trees, shrubs and
herbs are found in and around it, a list of which is given in baseline. None
of the plants are in the list of endangered plant species. Also, the trees
are identified for their sensitivity & pollution tolerance capacity. This
concept helps to plan the greenbelt of the area making it less polluted
and a pollution absorber. Thus, it is envisaged that there will not be any
adverse impacts on the ecology/biological environment in construction
phase.
b. Operational phase impact & mitigation measures
There are no protected areas like national park/wildlife sanctuary within
the 10 km radial of the project site, so there will not be any significant
impact on ecology. No endangered floral or faunal species has been
recorded within the study area. Further, unit will develop greenbelt to
enhance the biological feature of the site. Also, the trees are identified for
their sensitivity & pollution tolerance capacity.

There will not be any discharge of effluent on land or any receiving body
from Urmit Chemicals, and entire quantity of hazardous waste will be
handled & disposed as per Hazardous & Other Waste (Management &
Transboundary Movement) Rules, 2016. Hence there will not be any
impact on aquatic ecology of the surrounding area. GLCs of air pollutants
will remain low and hence no significant impact on terrestrial ecology is
expected. Thus, there will not be any significant impact on ecological
environment.
4.9 IMPACT ON SOCIO-ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT
a. Construction Phase Impacts & mitigation measures
During the peak construction phase, construction manpower including
construction workers will be employed. However, to the maximum extent
possible, construction workers will be employed from within the study
area. Since the construction phase of this project will be for short time
period, the socio-economic impact due to construction of this project is
going to be temporary. Around 25-30 workers will be employed in the
construction work. This will increase construction employment in the
study area. As the construction phase for the proposed project will be few
months, the impact would be temporary.
b. Operation Phase Impacts & mitigation measures
The proposed unit will be located in private land, so no displacement of
person is envisaged. Unit will provide employment opportunity to locally
San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad
Draft EIA report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 4-13
available skilled and un-skilled labors at different level as per the
requirement, which in turn result into a positive impact on prevailing
socio-economic environment. For the proposed activities, 100 nos. of
workers will be employed. In addition, employment will be generated by
the secondary supporting activities e.g. transportation, communication,
daily utility services. Surrounding area has got good educational facilities
and most of employees will come from the surrounding area. Thus,
overall impacts on socio-economic environment are long term and
positive in nature.
4.10 IMPACT ON OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH & SAFETY
a. Construction Phase Impacts & mitigation measures
In the Construction phase, some effects on occupational health & safety
of the employees working in the site are envisaged. Major health issues
encountered will be physical hazards & accidental hazards. All plans and
construction schedule will be followed as per relevant laws approved by
competent authority, so as to minimize the occupational health hazards.
Mitigation Measures
Necessary PPEs like helmets, ear plug/ear muff, safety shoes,
goggles etc. will be provided to workers.
Incident/accident reporting system will be developed and all the
employees will be made aware for the same.
Periodic inspection & testing of equipments & machineries will be
done.
b. Operational Phase Impacts & mitigation measures
In operational phase, various effects on occupational health and safety of
the employees working in the plant are envisaged. Major health and
safety issues encountered will be physical hazards, respiratory hazards,
electrical hazards, noise, fire hazards associated while working within the
plant. Preventive safety measures shall be taken to minimize the risk of
accident with respect to chemical handling.
Mitigation Measures
Emergency preparedness plan should be implemented.

appropriate hazard warnings.
Good house-keeping will be ensured within the factory premises.
4.11 IMPACT ON EXITING TRAFFIC SYSTEM
The traffic load is to be increased due to proposed project for the
transportation of finished goods and raw materials. Calculation of
transport load is summarized below.
Production: 400 MT/month and 1450 MT/month of different type of
hazardous waste which need to transport outside of factory premises.
Considering 26 days = 1850/26 = 71 Ton/day
Considering 20 T truck load = 71/10 = 7.1 say 7 nos. of vehicles/d
Generally, trucks use for raw materials are used for movement of finished
products. However, we are considering same numbers of truck for raw
material transportation i.e. 7.0 x 2 = 14
Considering to and fro movement, number of trucks passing per day will
be 14 x 2 = 14 nos.
Equivalent PCUs = 3.5 x 28 = 98/day
As per Indian Road Congress, a 4 lane divided road has a carrying
capacity of 2000 PCUs per hr.
Additional traffic from our project will be estimated 98 PCU/day
[28 trucks (in & out) x 3.5] and 25 PCU/day from car and
motorcycle, which have insignificant impact on existing traffic
load.
Existing Traffic Scenario and Level of Services
There will not be any major increase in transportation activity due to
proposed project as compared to present carrying capacity, which is
covered in Table 3.27 of Chapter-3 of EIA report.

also covers the environmental aspect of pollution prevention and
improvement in quality of life nearby the project vicinity. The project
alternative is the course of action in pace of another, that would meet the
same purpose and need, but which would avoid or minimize negative
impacts and enhance project benefits. Such projects may result in
specific impacts which can be avoided or mitigated by adherence to
certain predetermined performance standards, guidelines or design
criteria. Alternative approaches may therefore be more effective in
integrating environmental and social concerns into the project planning
process.

Environmental Monitoring Programme
6.1 PRELUDE
Environment monitoring is the sampling and analysis tool to know the
environment conditions at particular time. The record of environmental
monitoring is most important as the environmental changes are slow in
nature and impact appears after many years. Environmental Monitoring is
the technical heart of assessment of environmental and social impacts
arising due to implementation of the proposed project. An equally
essential element of this process is to develop measures to eliminate,
offset or reduce impacts to acceptable levels during implementation and
operation of projects. The integration of such measures into project
implementation and operation is supported by clearly defining the
environmental requirements within an Environmental Management Plan.
Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. proposed to manufacture dyes and dye
intermediates with production capacity of 400 MT/month. The
environmental monitoring programme is developed as below.
6.2 ENVIRONMENT MONITORING PROGRAM
The periodically monitoring of Environmental parameters like air, water,
noise, soil and performance of pollution control facilities and safety
measures in the plant are vital for proper Environmental management of
any industrial project. Therefore, the company shall create environmental
monitoring facilities by the environmental and safety department to
monitor air and water pollutants as per the guideline of GPCB & CPCB.
Moreover, air and water quality shall be monitored by outside agencies
authorized by GPCB at regular frequencies. This department shall also
carry out periodical checkup of fire and safety equipments.
6.3 OBJECTIVE OF MONITORING PLAN
The basic objective of implementing a monitoring plan on a regular basis
is as follows:
To know the pollution status within the plant and its vicinity.

recommended for monitoring the ground level concentrations and fugitive
emissions around the plant. Unit should install three monitoring stations
around its battery limit (at 1200 as per guideline) for monitoring PM, SO2
and NOx. The combined data will provide overall characteristic and
emission from the industry. Besides this, stack emissions monitoring as
per SPCB guidelines shall be carried out. Proposed monitoring schemes
are mentioned in Table 6.1.
6.6 WATER ENVIRONMENT MONITORING
Total wastewater generation will be 132.5 KLD, of which 7.5 KLD will be
domestic wastewater and the rest will be industrial wastewater. The main
source of the industrial wastewater generation will be from process (80
KLD), Scrubber (2 KLD), Washing (25 KLD) and utilities (Boiler & cooling
- 18 KLD).
The wastewater generated will be separated into two streams for
treatment. Process wastewater from intermediates plant will be treated in
“ETP-1”. Then it will be sent Common Spray Dryer for evaporation at
Chhatral Environment Management system Pvt. Ltd. Effluent from dyes
plant, Scrubber, Washing and utilities (cooling & boiler) will be treated in
“ETP-2”. Treated effluent will be sent to RO and the RO permeate will be
reused; RO reject will be Spray Dried along with effluent of ETP-1.
Domestic wastewater will be discharged into soak pit. ETP sludge will be
disposed to approve TSDF site. Domestic effluent will be disposed to soak
pit. The detail of water usage and wastewater generation is provided
comprehensively in Chapter 2. Proposed monitoring schemes are
mentioned in Table 6.1.
6.7 NOISE ENVIRONMENT MONITORING
Main source of noise generation at Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. will be
boilers, HAG, THF, D.G. set, process plant, vehicular transportation &
other machineries. Monitoring of noise levels is essential to assess the
efficacy of maintenance schedules undertaken to reduce noise levels and

Additional Studies A. Hazard Analysis & Risk Assessment
7.1 INTRODUCTION
Industrial plants deal with materials, which are generally hazardous in
nature by virtue of their intrinsic chemical properties or their operating
temperatures or pressures or a combination of these. Fire, explosion,
toxic release or combinations of these are the hazards associated with
industrial plants using hazardous chemicals. More comprehensive,
systematic and sophisticated methods of Safety Engineering, such as,
Hazard Analysis and Quantitative Risk Assessment have now been
developed to improve upon the integrity, reliability and safety of
industrial plants. The primary emphasis in safety engineering is to reduce
risk to human life, property and environment. Some of the more
important methods used to achieve this are:
Quantitative Risk Analysis: Provides a relative measure of the
likelihood and severity of various possible hazardous events by
critically examining the plant process and design.
Work Safety Analysis: The technique discerns whether the plant
layout and operating procedures in practice have any inherent
infirmities.
Safety Audit: Takes a careful look at plant operating conditions, work
practices and work environments to detect unsafe conditions.
7.2 RISK ASSESSMENT-Identification of Hazards
M/s. Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. Is proposed unit proposed to produce
Dyes and Dye Intermediates at Survey No. 1384, Village: Rajpur, Tal:
Kadi, Dist: Mehsana, Gujarat Total production capacity of the proposed
products will be 400 MT/month. A three ‗levels‘ risk assessment approach
has been adopted. The risk assessment levels are generally consistent
with the practices encountered through various assignments for medium
and large chemical complexes. The brief outline of the three tier approach
is given below:
San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad
Draft EIA Report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 7-2
Level 1 – Risk Screening
This is top-down review of worst-case potential hazards/risks, aimed
primarily at identifying plant sites or areas within plant, which pose the
highest risk. Various screening factors considered include:
Inventory of hazardous materials;
Hazardous Materials properties;
Storage conditions (e.g. temperature and pressure);
Location sensitivity (distance to residential areas/populace).
The data/information is obtained from plant. The results provide a
relative indication of the extent of hazards and potential for risk
exposure.
Level 2 – Major Risk Survey (Semi - Quantitative)
The survey approach combines the site inspection with established risk
assessment techniques applied both qualitative as well quantitative
mode. The primary objective is to identify and select major risks at a
specific location in the plant considering possible soft spots/weak links
during operation/maintenance. Aspects covered in the risk usually
include:
Process Hazards;
Process Safety Management Systems;
Fire Protection and Emergency response equipment and programs.
Security Vulnerability;
Impact of hazards consequences (equipment damage, business
interruption, injury, fatalities);
Qualitative risk identification of scenarios involving hazardous
materials;
Risk reduction measures.
Selection of critical scenarios and their potential of damage provide
means of prioritising mitigative measures and allocate the resources to
the areas with highest risks.
Level 3 – Quantitative Risk Assessment (Deterministic)
This is the stage of assessment of risks associated with all credible
hazards (scenarios) with potential to cause an undesirable outcome such
San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad
Draft EIA Report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 7-3
as human injury, fatality or destruction of property. The four basic
elements include:
Hazards identification utilizing formal approach (Level 2, HAZOP etc.);
Frequency Analysis. Based on past safety data (incidents/accidents);
Identifying likely pathway of failures and quantifying the toxic material
release;
Hazards analysis to quantify the consequences of various hazards
scenarios (fire, explosion, BLEVE, toxic vapour release etc.). Establish
minimum value for damage (e.g. IDLH, over pressure, radiation flux)
to assess the impact on environment.
Risk Quantification: Quantitative techniques are used considering
effect/impact due to weather data, population data, and frequency of
occurrences and likely hood of ignition/toxic release. Data are
analyzed considering likely damage (in terms of injury/fatality,
property damage) each scenarios is likely to cause.
QRA provides a means to determine the relative significance of a number
of undesired events, allowing analyst and the team to focus their risk
reduction efforts where they will be beneficial most. The QRA for this
plant is based on Level 1 and Level 2. Table 2.2 in Chapter 2 gives the
list of products (and their monthly production capacity) to be
manufactured. Table below gives the bulk storages of hazardous
chemicals and their consumption.
7.3 HAZARDOUS MATERIALS STORAGE
The solid raw materials will be received in bags or drums and will be
stored in chemicals godowns. The products will be packed in bags or
drums and stored in product godowns as per market demand. The bulk
storages of liquid hazardous materials are given in the Table 7.1 below.
In addition unit will store fuels mainly Coal for boiler, HAG, TFH and
Diesel (in limited quantity) for D.G. Set (during power failure only). The
solid material powder or granules spillage can results in polluting small
area only. The damage to personnel can be through ingress- dermal (if
individual come in contact), oral (if individual food gets infected through
fugitive dust) or inhalation (fugitive dust). The main route is fugitive dust
which in covered area will move to short distance only. The risk is
San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad
Draft EIA Report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 7-4
through liquid products which are volatile material. The toxic vapours due
to spillage of such material can travel to some distance (as they are
stored in covered godowns) and cause damage.

7.4 RISK SCREENING APPROACH
Risk screening of Urmit Chemicals was undertaken through process study
and study of data/information provided by the unit. Data of major/bulk
storages of raw materials, intermediates and other chemicals were
collected. MSDS of hazardous chemicals were studied vis a vis their
inventories and mode of storage. The chemicals stored in bulk and
defined under MSIHC Rule will be considered for detailed analysis. None
of the products are covered under MSIHC Rules. Raw materials under
hazardous category as specified by MSIHC Rules, 1989 (including
subsequent amendments) are as below,

7.4.1 Acute Exposure Guideline Levels (AEGLs)
AEGLs estimate the concentrations at which most people - including
sensitive individuals such as old, sick, or very young people - will begin to
experience health effects if they are exposed to a hazardous chemical for
a specific length of time (duration). For a given exposure duration, a
chemical may have up to three AEGL values, each of which corresponds
to a specific tier of health effects. AEGLs of the materials are as below.
The 3 tiers are defined as follows:
AEGL-3 is ―the airborne concentration of a substance above which it is
predicted that the general population, including susceptible individuals,
could experience life-threatening adverse health effects or death.‖
AEGL-2 is ―the airborne concentration of a substance above which it is
predicted that the general population, including susceptible individuals,
could experience irreversible or other serious, long-lasting adverse
health effects or an impaired ability to escape.‖
AEGL-1 is ―the airborne concentration of a substance above which it is
predicted that the general population, including susceptible individuals,
could experience notable discomfort, irritation, or certain asymptomatic
no sensory effects.‖

7.5 QRA APPROACH
Identification of hazards and likely scenarios (based on Level-1 and
Level-2 activities) calls for detailed analysis of each scenario for potential
of damage, impact area (may vary with weather conditions/wind
direction) and safety system in place. Subsequently each incident is
classified according to relative risk classifications provided in Table 7.4.
Table 7.4: Risk Classification
Stage Description
High
(> 10-2/yr.)
A failure which could reasonably be expected to occur within the
expected life time of the plant.
Examples of high failure likelihood are process leaks or single
instrument or valve failures or a human error which could result in
releases of hazardous materials.
Moderate
(10-2 --10-4/yr.)
A failure or sequence of failures which has a low probability of
occurrence within the expected lifetime of the plant.
Examples of moderate likelihood are dual instrument or valve
failures, combination of instrument failures and human errors, or
single failures of small process lines or fittings.
Low
(<10-4)
A failure or series of failures which have a very low probability of
occurrence within the expected lifetime of plant.
Examples of ‗low‘ likelihood are multiple instruments or valve
failures or multiple human errors, or single spontaneous failures of
tanks or process vessels.
Minor Incidents Impact limited to the local area of the event with potent for ‗knock
– on- events‘
Serious Incident One that could cause:
Any serious injury or fatality on/off site;
Property damage of more than 50 Lakhs INR
Extensive Incident One that is five or more times worse than a serious incident.
Assigning a relative risk to each scenario provides a means of prioritising
associated risk mitigation measures and planned actions.

In order to understand the damages produced by various scenarios, it is
appropriate to understand the physiological/physical effects of thermal
radiation intensities. The thermal radiation due to tank fire usually results
in burn on the human body. Furthermore, inanimate objects like
equipment, piping, cables, etc. may also be affected and also need to be
evaluated for damages. Table 7.5, Table 7.6 and Table 7.7 (below),
respectively give tolerable intensities of various objects and desirable
escape time for thermal radiation.
San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad
Draft EIA Report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 7-11
Thermal hazards could be from fires or explosion. Fire releases energy
slowly while explosion release energy very rapidly (typically in micro
seconds). Explosion is rapid expansion of gases resulting in rapidly
moving shock wave. BLEVE (boiling liquid expanding vapour explosion)
occurs if a vessel containing a liquid at a temperature above its
atmospheric boiling point ruptures. The subsequent BLEVE is the
explosive vaporization of large fraction of its vapour contents; possibly
followed by combustion or explosion of the vaporized cloud if it is
combustible. Thermal hazards have been considered for various scenarios
including: Fire in inflammable chemicals storage tanks.

7.7 DAMAGE DUE TO EXPLOSION
The explosion of a dust or gas (either as a deflagration or detonation)
results in a reaction front moving outwards from the ignition source
preceded by a shock wave or pressure front. After the combustible
material is consumed the reaction front terminates but the pressure wave
continues its outward movement. Blast damage is based on the
determination of the peak overpressure resulting from the pressure wave
impacting on the object or structure. Damage estimates based on
overpressure are given in Table 7.8 below:
Table 7.8: Damage due to Overpressure
Sr. No.
Overpressure (psig/bar)
Damage
1. 0.04 Loud Noise/sonic boom glass failure
2. 0.15 Typical pressure for glass failure
3. 0.5 - 1 Large and small windows usually shattered
4. 0.7 Minor damage to house structure
5. 1 Partial demolition of houses, made uninhabitable
6. 2.3 Lower limit of serious structure damage
7. 5 - 7 Nearly complete destruction of houses
8. 9 Loaded train box wagons completely demolished
9. 10 Probable total destruction of houses
10. 200 Limits of crater lip
In case of Urmit Chemicals, explosion probability is remote.
7.8 TOXIC RELEASE
For toxic release the damage criteria considered is IDLH concentration (if
data are available). The immediately dangerous to life or health air
concentration values (IDLH values) developed by the National Institute
for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) characterize these high-risk
exposure concentrations and conditions and are used as a component of
respirator selection criteria. IDLH values are established (1) to ensure
that the worker can escape from a given contaminated environment in
the event of failure of the respiratory protection equipment and (2) to
indicate a maximum level above which only a highly reliable breathing
apparatus, providing maximum worker protection, is permitted.
San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

IDLH of all the materials stored in bulk are as below.
IDLH Value Unit
Sulfuric Acid/ Oleum 15 mg/m3
Sodium Hydroxide 10 mg/m3
Aniline 100 ppm
Hydrochloric acid 50 ppm
Nitric acid 25 ppm
Chlorine Gas 30 ppm
Acetic Acid 50 ppm

7.10 LIKELY FAILURE SCENARIOS
Few likely failure scenarios have been selected after critical appraisal of
raw materials and storage inventories. Failure scenarios selected are as
given in Table 7.9 below:
Table 7.9: Different Failure Scenarios

7.11 QUANTITATIVE RISK ASSESSMENT & CONSEQUENCE ANALYSIS
7.11.1 PREAMBLE
In the previous section we have carried out the hazards analysis of Urmit
Chemicals considering various aspects including bulk storages of
hazardous chemicals, plant process system, plant incidents/accidents
records, critical appraisal and discussion at site for soft spots in the plant
etc. Based on the hazards analysis few critical scenarios have been
selected for QRA and consequence analysis. QRA quantifies vulnerable
zones for a conceived incident with various levels of severity.
In consequence calculation, use is made of a number of calculation
models to estimate the physical effects of an accident (spill of hazardous
material) and to predict the damage (lethality, injury, material
destruction and other property damage). The risk assessment modelling
can be roughly divided into three groups:
Determination of source strength parameters;
Determination of consequential effects;
Determination of damage or damage distances (with specific severity
rates)
7.11.2 Weather Effect
The effect of ambient conditions on the impact of fire/heat radiation and
GLC of hazardous/toxic material can be beneficial as well as harmful. A
San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad
Draft EIA Report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 7-15
high wind (turbulence) can dilute the toxic material while stable
environment can extend the reach of IDLH or IT (inhalation LC50 rats for
products) concentration to long distance. Any inflammable gas/vapour
release in turbulent weather will soon dilute the hazardous gases below
LEL and thus prevent the disaster.
7.12 INCIDENTS IMPACTS
The identified failure scenarios (Table 7.9) have been analyzed (Using
ALOHA and EFFECT Modules) for the impact zones considering damage
due to thermal and toxic impacts. Each incident will have Impact on the
surrounding environment which in extreme case may cross plant
boundary. The impact zones for various scenarios are given in Table
7.10 and shown in Figure 7.1 to 7.7.

7.13 CONSEQUENTIAL IMPACTS
The consequential impacts from each incident scenarios can be though
mainly toxic route. The damage can be on plant personnel (and
neighboring premises in case incident crosses boundary). The impact
zones for some of the hazards are shown in Figure 7.1 to 7.7.
San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad
Draft EIA Report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 7-19
7.13.1 Thermal and Explosion Hazards
Incidents involving thermal and explosion hazards are mainly due to fire
in tank farm. In case of Urmit, no explosive chemicals stored in premises
because no use of solvent or highly explosive chemicals.
7.13.2 Toxic Hazards
Toxic hazards are mainly due to chemicals/gas leakage/spillage and their
impact is limited to plant boundary and adjacent premises based on the
wind direction (Sulphuric acid ~410 meters; Oleum Tank leakage ~ 3100
m; Hydrochloric Acid Tank leakage ~ 13 m, Chlorine Gas leakage (SC-D
~ 500 m & (SC-E) ~ 700 m) However the consequences may go outside
the plant boundary if the incidents lead to domino effect, which is highly
unforeseeable.
7.13.3 Other Hazards
The other hazards in the plant include (but not limited to):
Other toxic hazards due to acids/other toxic spillages (mainly limited
to spillage area only).
Mechanical hazards due to machines/equipment.
Hazards due to individual soft spots like walking casually and noticing
a pit and falling or colliding/stumbling or slipping (not noticing a wet
place etc.).
7.13.4 Other Toxic Hazards
Acid spillage-its impact will be limited to spillage area. The spillage if
comes in contact with metal parts will produce hydrogen which is highly
flammable gas. Any person moving in area and getting splash will get the
injury. In addition the spillage will cause pollution problem. The spillage is
to be collected and neutralized for toxic contents before disposal.
7.14 OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH
In any eventuality, injured personnel will be immediately rushed to
hospital after giving first aid. All employees will be having regular medical
checkup as per norms. One dedicated on-site vehicle and local ambulance
service will be always (round the clock) accessible for meeting any
eventuality.

Treatment of workers affected by accidental spillage of chemicals
There is wide range of chemicals present in the Chemical plants. The safe
cleanup of a chemical spill requires some knowledge of the properties and
hazards posed by the chemical & any added dangers posed by the
location of the spill. Employees must notify their immediate supervisor of
injury by spillage of chemicals or exposure to hazardous materials. All
injuries must be reported. Supervisor is responsible for reporting any
injuries or occupational illnesses to the management.
Following steps will be immediate taken by the Supervisor.
Identify spillage/leakages of hazardous chemicals
Chemical Exposure to Skin:
Immediately flush with cool water for at least 15 minutes. If there are no
visible burns, remove the cloth from burning part of body. Seek medical
attention if exposure/spillages occur major possible problems.
Chemical Exposure to Skin – Serious:
Remove all contaminated clothing. Locate the nearest emergency shower
and soak for at least 15 minutes. Have someone contact the Hospital for
immediate medical attention.
Chemicals in Eyes:
Irrigate eyes for at least 15 minutes with tempered water from
emergency eyewash station. Remove contact lenses if there is. Notify the
management and immediate medical attention.
Acid Fumes:
Anyone overcome by fumes should be removed to fresh air. Never
attempt to enter a location where potentially dangerous fumes might
place you at risk. If someone is down, contact emergency personnel and
let them enter. Self-breathing apparatus is required for persons entering
the affected area. Seek medical attention for exposure as soon as
possible.
Chemical Spills:
The safe clean-up of an acid spill requires some knowledge of the
properties and hazards posed by the acid and any added dangers posed
by the location of the spill. If you believe a spill is beyond your capacity
to clean up, do not attempt to do so by your own, immediately contact to
San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad
Draft EIA Report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 7-21
nearest fire/emergency station. Spill kits with instructions, absorbents,
neutralizing agents if applicable, protective equipment, and sealable
waste buckets should be present in plant area.
Following Steps to be taken for ensuring health and safety of
workers engaged in handling of Hazardous materials
Identify chemicals to be used, amounts required, condition followed as
per the MSDS guideline.
Evaluate the hazards posed by the chemicals and the process
conditions. The evaluation should cover toxic, physical, reactive, as
well as any other potential hazards posed by the respective chemicals.
Select appropriate controls to minimize risk, including use of
engineering controls, administrative controls, and Personal Protective
Equipment (PPE) to protect workers from hazards. The controls must
ensure that OSHA‘s Permissible Exposure Limits (PELs) are not
exceeded.
Avoid Underestimation of Risk of handling and its reaction.
Before working with chemicals, know the facility‘s policies and
procedures for how to handle an accidental spill or fire. Emergency
telephone numbers should be posted in a prominent area. Know the
location of all safety equipment and the nearest fire alarm and
telephone.
Provide popper Ventilation in the plant/process area.
Corrosive chemicals that require vented storage should be stored in
vented cabinets instead of in a chemical hood.
Local exhaust ventilation devices should be appropriate to the
operations in the plant.
Chemicals should be separated and stored according to hazard
category and compatibility.
7.15 CONCLUSION & RECOMMENDATIONS
The hazard analysis and risk assessment of few possible selected incident
scenarios indicates that most incidents will be limited to plant battery
limits, and have impact on adjoining area in very unlikely scenarios only.
Toxic hazards are mainly due to chemicals leakage/spillage and their
impact is limited to plant boundary and adjacent premises based on the
San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad
Draft EIA Report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 7-22
wind direction. The direction of impact will be in down wind direction
(wind direction and speed varies with season).
Some of the recommendations for Tank farm storage system are as given
below:
Dyke wall will be provided to storage tanks.
SOP will be prepared for Hydrochloric acid, Nitric acid, and Sulfuric
acid handling.
Fixed foam system with adequate capacity.
Regular ‗Hazard Survey‘ ensures the detection of leakage in the plant.
In house ‗capability building‘ to attend hazardous scenarios is to be
taken up through mock drills.
Train staff in attending such scenarios.
Human Factors: Human factors role in safety cannot be ignored. Odd
hours working and over/long hours work can drain out individual. It
shows in lack of efficiency and also the lack of apt attention the modern
chemical complex demand. They are to be closely looked into and
avoided, as
a. If no accident has happened so far probability of incident/accident
occurring increases.
b. ‗No accident‘/good safety record develops complacency inertia/over
confidence in the team. This attitude gives rise to gaps/soft spots in
the system giving chances to incidents/accidents.
c. Safety requires novelty. Routine training practices get stale with no
positive results. Look for novel scheme of training/ safety practices to
build up fresh impetus in safety.

be continued after plantation if any dry spells follows. Planted area shall
be inspected and mortality rate ensured for each species. The dead and
drying plant shall be replaced by fresh seedlings.
Selection of species for greenbelt
For the development of greenbelt, plants having simple big leaves and
native species are preferred to the plants. The plants are suitable for
greenbelt development based on gaseous exchange capacity of foliage
which is ascertained by the following characteristics:
The plant should be fast growing.
It should have thick canopy cover.
It should be perennial and evergreen.
It should have large leaf area index.
It should be indigenous.
It should be efficient in absorbing pollutants without significant effects
on plant growth.
The objectives of the industrial greenbelt are to improve the micro-
environment. The success depends on the type of land available and
selection of suitable tree species for pollution control. Selection of tree
species for industrial areas is influenced by the nature of industry. The
objective should be to ensure a green cover tolerating pollutant gases
and solid particulates present in the atmosphere. It is also advisable to
select suitable tree species and adopt simple techniques which require
minimum investment and care.

movements will change the landscape, which are expected to be of short
duration & insignificant. Preliminary activities like proper storage of
construction materials & proper management will be done within the
project area. Therefore, impact will be negligible. Unit will provide
sanitation facilities for the staff engaged in construction work which will
prevent the impacts on land.
(b) Impacts during operation phase & Mitigation measures:
Hazardous wastes will have significant negative impacts if disposed
unsystematically. Unit has provided all required structural facilities like
separate hazardous waste storage room with RCC floor, leachate
collection system, and concrete floors within premises. Hence, no
significant negative impact is envisaged on the land environment.
11.3.5 Summary of impact on Socio Economy

Source and disposal of waste water
Effluent from Dyes plant will be treated in ETP-1 followed by RO, RO
permeate will be reused again. Effluent from dye intermediate will be
treated in ETP -2 along with RO reject and after that the entire effluent will
be spray dried in spray dryer. Domestic sewage will be disposed of through
a septic tank and soak pit system. Hence, Unit will maintain “Zero Liquid
Discharge”
Source and disposal of Hazardous wastes
There will be Ten sources of Solid/hazardous waste generation. ETP Sludge
& salt from Spray Dryer will be disposed off to approve TSDF site. Iron
sludge will be sold to the cement plant or disposed off to approve TSDF site. HCl
will be reused within premises. Spent sulfuric Acid will be reused within process
and partly sold to actual users. Calcium Thio Sulphite, Acetic Acid, Sodium
Bisulphite will be sold to actual user. Used/ Spent oil will be sold to actual
users and Containers/Barrels&liners will be sold to registered recyclers. The
