Projects & Development India Limited, Sindri 8 of 44
Pre-Feasibility report for TOR of Development of Refrigerated LPG/Propane/ Butane
import, Storage, bottling and BULK Distribution Facilities of M/S BPCL at HDC, Haldia
Presently, BPCL has no LPG import and storage facilities of their own at Haldia
port. BPCL is using the facilities owned by IPPL for catering the need of LPG for
growing markets in the Eastern states of the country. In order to meet growing demand
& to achieve self reliance ,BPCL intends to put up a LPG import facility at Haldia.
It is a complementary requirement of the Haldia Dock complex for the economy,
better serviceability to end customer and to improve the primary / secondary logistic
cost.
The development of this project will help the industrial growth especially in Eastern and
North-Eastern part of India in eco-friendly way.
The project creates an infrastructure to import the Eco-friendly Fuel LPG, which in turn
makes the fuel available for use in Domestic/Commercial/Automotive and Industrial
sectors, replacing the highly polluting Solid and Liquid Fuels.
The project will also create an environment for development in the region and create
ample employment opportunities directly or thru ancillary requirement for construction,
operations and maintenance.
There will be temporary employment generation during construction period.
It will ease the availability of LPG to end customer and upgrade the quality of life.
Currently, the Haldia port handles similar cargoes hence, development of this project will
complement the optimum utilization of the Port Infrastructure and contribute to the
national and state exchequer.
The use of LPG as domestic fuel will reduce the deforestation and will help to gain useful
life years.
There is a demand supply gap for LPG consumption in eastern India which can be made
through LPG import & will edge the customer & upgrade the quality of life.
1.5 CONCLUSION :
The proposed project for LPG receipt, storage, bottling & dispatch facilities will be beneficial
for the region in terms of financial, environmental and social benefits. There will be revenue
generation for the Port by way of Lease rentals, Wharfages and other Port charges for marine
operations etc. The revenue generation for government will be thru Imports duties, VAT, etc.
The revenue by way of operation of the terminal is estimated to be Rs.155.4 Crores PA with a
throughput of 0.6 MMTPA (first year estimated throughput ) & same will be increase year by
Projects & Development India Limited, Sindri 9 of 44

import, Storage, bottling and BULK Distribution Facilities of M/S BPCL at HDC, Haldia
year after increase in throughput . The project will generate employment for local people in
skilled, Semi-skilled and unskilled categories. The Tank farm operations will encourage the
ancillary/supporting units in the nearby areas which will further generate indirect employment.
The proposed site for LPG terminal does not fall in CRZ .however a part of the activity is
related to water front i.e. transfer pipeline from bulk cargo unloading point. As per CRZ
notification, 1991 and Cause 43 (a) & Clause 44 (B) of State Coastal Zone Management
Authorities, WB, “any activity within CRZ that requires water front & foreshore with Govt.
Clearance” are permissible in CRZ.
Further, it would not be out of place to mention that the Haldia Dock Complex was identified as
“CRITICALLY POLLUTED AREA/ ZONE” by CPCB. The moratorium has now been lifted vide
MoE Office Memorandum N. J-11013/5/2010-IA.II(i) dated 17.09.2013. The proposed project is a
complementary requirement of the Haldia Dock complex for the economy, better
serviceability to end customer and to improve the primary / secondary logistic cost.
The HDC has already got environmental clearance for the activities performed within the
land under its possession. Recently, HDC has got Environmental clearance for
establishment of fourth Jetty in the month of June, 2014.
Considering the above facts, the TOR may be granted for the proposed project for preparation
of EIA report as per the guidelines with a critical review w,r,t, CRZ clearance.

2.0 INTRODUCTION
2.1 IDENTIFICATION OF THE PROJECT & PROJECT PROPONENT
Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited (BPCL) is a leading PSU with global presence
through sustained aggressive growth and high profitability. In the year 1976, the Burmah
Shell Group of Companies was taken over by the Government of India to form Bharat
Refineries Limited which was subsequently renamed Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited.
It was the first refinery to process indigenous crude (Bombay High), in the country. Bharat
Petroleum produces a diverse range of products, from petrochemicals and solvents to
aircraft fuel and specialty lubricants and markets them through its wide network of Petrol
Stations, Kerosene Dealers, LPG Distributors, Lube Shoppes, besides supplying fuel
directly to hundreds of industries, and several international and domestic airlines.
In order to meet the gap in demand and supply of LPG for domestic and industrial
customers of Eastern India covering the states of West Bengal, Bihar and Odisha, BPCL is
presently using IPPL (Indian Oil Petronas Private Limited) import facilities at Haldia for
unloading, storage and distribution of bulk LPG. Besides BPCL, IOCL and HPCL are also
using IPPL facilities at Haldia.
BPCL proposes to set up facilities at Haldia to import 1.0 MMT per Annam of Propane and
Butane through bulk cargo, transfer it through twin pipelines (Propane & Butane) to two nos.
of Double Containment(double integrity) atmospheric storage tanks to produce LPG , store
and dispatch by filling LPG in cylinders and by bulk loading through Tank lorries.
2.2 BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF NATURE OF THE PROJECT :
The Govt. of India had ventured into promotion of LPG as a cooking fuel in the Country
more than 4 decades before. Starting from a very negligible coverage in the beginning,
today all India coverage for use of domestic LPG is close to 60% of the population. With a
view to cut down on pollution and arrest deforestation, the Govt. of India ventured on a
program to increase the use of domestic LPG in the rural sector by launching Rajiv Gandhi
Gramin LPG Vitarak from 2009-10 with a target to increase the all India coverage on use of
LPG as a cooking gas to 75% of the population.
To meet the demand of LPG, there is need to add new import terminals as soon as possible
otherwise the country will face a crisis in meeting the LPG demand both in domestic and
industrial sector.

2.4 DEMAND-SUPPLY GAP
2. 4.1 Past Consumption Pattern
LPG is largely used as a domestic fuel in India for cooking and to a lesser extent, as an
industrial and commercial energy source. It is also a relatively cleaner alternative for
automobiles compared to petrol and diesel. LPG consumption in India has more than
doubled over the last decade, with a compound annual growth rate of 7.2 per cent in the
five-year period (fiscal year [FY] 2007/08 to FY 2011/12) prior to the most recent reforms.
2. 4.2 Future Demand – Supply Projections
LPG will continue to remain a dominant fuel for cooking and heating for Indian households;
with Government of India’s ambitious Plans to increase use of LPG and reduction in quota
of kerosene. It is expected that there will be a shift in fuel usage pattern in rural sector and
dependence on conventional cooking fuels like biogas, wood and kerosene will go on
reducing consistently.
The projected demand of LPG in the country is presented in Table 2.1.

From Table 2.5 above, it is evident that there is a deficit of LPG supply in all the zones of the
country except for the western zone. The shortfall in supply of LPG to the Eastern Zone of
the country can be resolved through transporting bulk LPG from inland sources like Vizag.,
Bina, Auraya and via imports from Haldia.
Presently, BPCL has no LPG import and storage facilities of their own at Haldia port. BPCL
is using the facilities owned by IPPL for catering the need for LPG for growing markets in the
Eastern states of the country.

3.4.2 Process Details
(i) Receipt of Parcels at Jetty
Propane and Butane will be received in parcels of 22,000 MT in atmospheric refrigerated ship
tankers at proposed Jetty Port at Haldia West Bengal. The refrigerated liquid cargo will be
pumped by ship's pumps at a rate of max. 1.0 MMTPA through two marine unloading arms of
12" diameter and transferred to the storage tank via two 18" diameter pipelines each having a
total length of about 8.0 km. After completion of inspection and testing, all piping connections
to the tank for normal run with Propane and Butane shall be made. Purging the storage tanks
with nitrogen will be followed by purging with Propane and Butane. For this purpose liquid
nitrogen will be brought in refrigerated tanker and evaporated by N2 evaporators after being
pressurized as required. Propane and Butane has to be brought in ship tanker. Most of the
nitrogen in the system will be replaced by Propane and Butane vapours from the ship. During
this process, some cooling of the system is also achieved. Cooling down of the tank is done
by injecting Propane and Butane after displacing nitrogen substantially by purging with
Propane and Butane vapours. Cooling down rate has to be restricted to 1-50 C per hour.
The refrigeration system of the plant shall be run for the cooling down operation. Purging of
Propane and Butane unloading lines shall also be done during this period. Building up of
Propane and Butane level has to be started after completion of cooling down up to around -
300C. Pressure of the tank will be maintained by Refrigeration compressors.
(ii) Unloading of Bulk Cargo
It is assumed that Propane / Butane will be received in parcels of 22,000MT at the proposed
Jetty of Haldia Port and will be pumped by ship tanker's pumps through 2 nos. marine
unloading arms of 12" diameter and will be transferred through 2 nos. 18" cross country
pipelines each having total length of approx. 8.0 km Propane and Butane will be stored in the
refrigerated storage tanks of which will have a net filling capacity of 15,000 MT each of
Propane and Butane.
The tanks operating pressures will be slightly above atmospheric pressure (2000mm WG).
Temperatures of -5.60C & -43.10C will be maintained in the tanks for Butane and Propane
respectively. The normal boil off from the Storage tanks enters into a re-liquefaction unit
comprising of the Boil Off Compressors, Condenser, Receiver and propane and butane
mounded storage bullets etc. Re-liquefied Propane and Butane is stored in the mounded
buffer bullets.
Projects & Development India Limited, Sindri 27 of 44
Pre-Feasibility report for TOR of Development of Refrigerated LPG/Propane/ Butane
import, Storage, bottling and BULK Distribution Facilities of M/S BPCL at HDC, Haldia
During unloading operation of the ship into the Storage tanks, the vapours displaced from the
Storage tanks, as well as the vapours generated from the heat coming from the unloading
pumps and unloading pipelines due to atmospheric heat will also be re-liquefied in the Re-
liquefaction unit and recycled back to the Buffer tanks.
Both the unloading lines run parallel throughout the entire length from jetty to Storage
terminal.
Each time before a bulk cargo unloading is done, it is necessary to pre- cool the unloading
pipelines as the unloading lines may get heated to higher temperature from atmospheric heat
ingress between two successive unloading operations for which one of the two lines will be
used for vapour return. For this purpose initially vapour is passed and liquid propane from the
Storage tanks is pumped into one of the unloading line by one of the propane transfer pump at
low rate enough to effect a slow cooling down of the pipeline (approx. 1- 60C per hour). The
route will be from storage tank via transfer pump discharge to one of the unloading line and
back to the tank through the other line. During the pre-cooling process one of compressors will
have to run continuously at full load.
(iii) Propane & Butane Heating
Liquid propane at -420C from LPG Storage tank shall be pumped through air pre heater &
Trim heater to heat liquid propane from -420C to a temperature of 15 0C.
The propane shall be heated using draft of air with required number of fans to blow air on the
pre heater fins side the temperature at pre heater outlet shall be controlled by speed controller
(VFD) on the fan motor through Temperature Indicator Controller.
(iv) Blending
Propane from Propane Storage Tank and Butane from Butane Storage are mixed after
heating to meet IS specification. Ethyl mercaptan is added for odorisation. Normally, the
blending ratio is automatically determined by DCS according to tank temperatures. The
Vapour Pressure Analysis installed in the system gives the vapour pressure of the blended
LPG downstream of blender, which is 9.6 kg/cm2g at 37.80C. If the vapour pressure exceeds
9.6 kg/cm2g, the product is off-specification and is returned to the storage tank.
Pure Propane/butane may be blended with Ethyl mercaptan in dynamic Blender for occasional
filling to Road tanker.

import, Storage, bottling and BULK Distribution Facilities of M/S BPCL at HDC, Haldia
(v) Dispatch
The LPG will be dispatched as filled in cylinders of 14.2 Kg & 19 Kg as well as through road
tankers (for bulk dispatch).
Bottling
The LPG is pumped to LPG filling plant from LPG storage vessels at LPG recovery plant. The
incoming LPG pressure in the pipeline is about 14 kg/cm2. The cylinder consists of a head
ring, 3 fins, valve, high pressure seamed cylinder rand a foot ring. The inside of the valve is
installed with a o-ring and a valve pin. The valve needs to be checked for any leak possible.
The bottling capacity of the plant is about 21000-25200 cylinders per day. The empty cylinders
are first marked by tare weight marking and their marked weights are stored by a HMI device
called pre-check scale. The marked cylinders go to carousel machine by chain conveyor. In
carousel machine the empty cylinders are first sensed by photo-electric sensors.
In each filling gun, two sensors are linked, which are placed at the top and at the bottom side
of the cylinders. The top side sensor is called wheel arm sensor. The bottom photo-cell
senses the position of the cylinder on the machine. The top photocell senses the cylinder rand
gives instruction to the gun. The respective gun shoots the as respective cylinder. The cylinder
moves in a revolution for a minute. The gun fills the empty cylinder within one minute. The
LPG filled in the cylinder should be of weight 14.2 kg. If the gun is unable to fill the cylinder
within one minute for delay error, the cylinder will again revolve for one minute. In the outlet of
the machine has a puller with sensor which allows only those cylinders filled up to the
standard weight to go out of the machine, otherwise it will return back the cylinder to the
machine again. The cylinders are introduced through a check scale, which checks the over
weighted cylinders and bypass the to another section called correction unit by pusher with
photo-electric sensor. The over weighted cylinders are manipulated up to the stander by
manual filling. This over weighted range is considered s +200gm. Now the corrected cylinders
are lined up with the other cylinders. Now the cylinders are fed to gas detector and o’ring
detector unit to check the leakages and damages. In this unit the damaged cylinders are
rejected. The tested cylinders are then fed to counting unit to count by a sensor and stored. In
hot air sealing unit the cylinders are sealed and feedstock transportation section.
Road Tankers
The LPG is pumped to LPG road tankers as per the dispatch schedule by BPCL. The entire
plant comprising of storage tanks and handling & distribution system will be provided with
Projects & Development India Limited, Sindri 29 of 44
Pre-Feasibility report for TOR of Development of Refrigerated LPG/Propane/ Butane
import, Storage, bottling and BULK Distribution Facilities of M/S BPCL at HDC, Haldia
adequate fire fighting and protection facilities as well as hydro carbon gas detection system
with sensing points for detection of Butane/ Propane/ LPG vapour in the plant area and give
alarm signal.
3.5 Availability of Water, its source, energy/power requirement and Source
The proposed project shall require water for service water requirement & cooling water
requirement. Cooling water is required for heatiing of the Refrigerated products) & fire water.
About 55 KL per day water shall be made available by Haldia Development Authority (HAD) at
the battery limit.
Incoming power supply will be taken from State Electricity Board through an independent
feeder to ensure uninterrupted power supply from grid. The total power requirement for the
operation of the proposed project shall be 9834 KVA.
3.6 Waste Generation, Management & Disposal
There is no continuous source of waste generation. The waste water in the form of sanitary
waste shall be treated anaerobically and disposed off through septic tanks. Wastewater from
cooling towers , bottling activities (cylinder bath) and mock fire drill shall be drained through
OWS ( Oil water separator) /Reused in the maintenance of green belt in the premises.
No solid raw material shall be handled in the proposed LPG terminal and as such there shall
be no deterioration of soil characteristics due to fugitive solids.
A little hazardous / non-hazardous waste has been envisaged which is limited to the
utilities/paints/lubricating oils etc. during the construction and operation of proposed
facilities. Operation is limited to the filling of LPG tankers and bottling hence; no solid waste
shall be generated from the operation of the proposed facilities.
3.7 Resource Recycle & Reuse
The proposed project does not envisage resource recycling and reuse. However, there will be
reduction in pollution on a broader scale by increased use of LPG as domestic fuel.

4.0 SITE ANALYSIS
4.1 Connectivity
Haldia is a strategically located port and well connected with National Highways, Rail Network
and is a gateway to Eastern and North-Eastern Indian Market. The proposed plant is at a
distance of about 1.3 km from Durga chak town railway station and 01 km from Durgachak
town. The nearest highway, NH-41 is located about 1.0 km from the proposed LPG terminal.
The proposed LPG terminal of M/s BPCL is located at Jagat Chak village, under Haldia
Dock complex of Purba Mednipore district in the State of West Bengal. The LPG terminal is
spread over in an area of 45 acres of land provided by the Haldia Dock complex.
Geographically, it is situated at Latitude from 22003'39" to 22003'51" N and Longitude from
88005'40" to 88005'40" E at an altitude in the range of 4-7 m from MSL.
The NH- 41 (Port Connectivity) connects the port city with NH-6 (part of Golden Quadrilateral)
at Kolaghat. From Kolaghat, NH-6 connects Orissa, Jharkhand, Kharagpur, Bankura and
Purulia and also Durgapur, through NH-34 to North Bengal, Bangladesh via Petrapole and
Bhojadanga Land Custom Stations. A State Highway also connects Haldia with Kolaghat via
Tamluk town which is the district headquarters as an alternate connectivity. Besides the major
Highways, the Haldia township has an extensive network of roads that serve the different
parts of the city and the industrial area.
A 4-Lane Expressway linking Haldia to Kolkata upto Airport (via Raichak-Kukrahati ) has also
become visible on the horizon. The Land possession from KOPT is completion. There is a
proposal to build up a 4 lane bridge connecting Raichak with Kukrahati which will improve
connectivity with Kolkata and reduce the travel time.
Currently the Port has dedicated Berths for Oil and Gas Vessels and can handle the large
vessels at Haldia upto 277 m long and with 10.5 m draft.
4.2 Land Form, Land Use & Land Ownership
The proposed terminal shall be set up in the land allotted in Industrial area owned by HDC,
Haldia. An area of 45 acres of land has been allotted to BPCL on lease. The letter of allotment
is attached as annexure-I. The Port land, in possession of HDC, is not being used for any
agricultural activity or farming. The existing plot is within Port Limits and is having land use of
Non-Agricultural type. The land is earmarked for development of tanks and allied infrastructure
for petroleum products.

import, Storage, bottling and BULK Distribution Facilities of M/S BPCL at HDC, Haldia
4.3 Topography
Topographically, the district can be divided into two parts:
(a) flat plains on the east, west and north,
(b) Contai coastal plain on the south.
The land of Purba Medinipore district is a Quaternary alluvial deposition. As the district area is
bounded by water bodies on two sides, it is a formation of fluvio-tidal deposition. Geologically,
the area is of recent origin. The relief of the study area is nearly flat surface with very slow run-
off. The average elevation is nearly 4-7 metres above mean sea level. Average slope ranges
from 0-5 degree.
4.4 Existing Land use pattern
The major part of the area equivalent to more than 40% (13017 Hectare out of 31400 hectare)
is covered by water bodies. About 17% (5420) Hectare of the area is non-agricultural land
while about 19% (6170 Hectare) of the land belongs to agricultural type. The proposed land
for LPG terminal does not fall in CRZ however a part of the transfer pipeline from bulk cargo
unloading point falls in CRZ. As per CRZ notification, 1991 and Cause 43 (a) & Clause 44 (B)
of State Coastal Zone Management Authorities, WB, “any activity within CRZ that requires
water front & foreshore with Govt. Clearance” are permissible in CRZ.
4.5 Existing Infrastructure
The proposed project is a green field project of BPCL in the land of HDC to meet the
complementary requirement of Haldia Dock. The existing infrastructures available at Haldia oil
jetty shall be utilized for berthing of bulk cargo, installation of marine unloading arm for
unloading of propane/butane. The product shall be transferred through proposed A/G
pipelines for storage and further dispatch at the proposed LPG terminal.
4.6 Soil Classification
The soils of the district are alluvial types. The soils are deep to very deep. As the district is
under coastal alluvium and has been formed by the recent alluvial deposition, the soils of this
district are developed mostly on Tertiary sediments comprising of sand, silt and clay. The
district is situated on flood plains of the Rupnarayan, Haldi and Hooghli rivers. As a result of
which, huge amount of clay (60 %) particles dominate in soil texture. The soil are medium to
fine textured. Owing to high clay content in the soil profile, permeability is moderate to poor
resulting into water logging conditions during rainy seasons, even during normal rainfall. Due
Projects & Development India Limited, Sindri 32 of 44
Pre-Feasibility report for TOR of Development of Refrigerated LPG/Propane/ Butane
import, Storage, bottling and BULK Distribution Facilities of M/S BPCL at HDC, Haldia
to poor permeability, the soils are imperfect to poorly drained. These physical qualities of soil
influence the land use pattern of the area to a considerable extent.
4.7 Climatological data
The climate of Haldia is a typical moderate one with winter temperatures ranging from 80C to
120C. Winters are cool and pleasant and it is also the festival time for inhabitants here with the
Haldia Utsav taking place during the same time. Summers can be hot and humid with
temperatures going up to 400C. Rainfall is moderate, and the rainy months are between May

6.0 PROPOSED INFRASTRUCTURE
6.1 Assessment of Infrastructure Demand & Facilities
An industrial area admeasuring 45 Acres of Government land under the control of Haldia Port
trust has been leased to BPCL and is well connected with Road and infrastructure facilities. It
is proposed to provide property demarcation through a 3.0 meter High Compound wall of Brick
Masonry with 0.6 M concertina fence and perimeter security surveillance system. To
segregate the licensed area, 0.6 M height kerb wall with 1.2 meter high chain link fence shall
be provided at appropriate places.

developed in the BPCL premises as per the guidelines of Ground Water Board. The area is
well equipped with most of the social infrastructure viz. Hospitals, Schools & College, Banks,
Post offices, etc.
6.2 Connectivity
The NH- 41 (Port Connectivity) connects the port city with NH-6 (part of Golden Quadrilateral)
at Kolaghat. From Kolaghat, NH-6 connects Orissa, Jharkhand, Kharagpur, Bankura and
Purulia and also Durgapur, through NH-34 to North Bengal, Bangladesh via Petrapole and
Bhojadanga Land Custom Stations. A State Highway also connects Haldia with Kolaghat via
Tamluk town which is the district headquarters as an alternate connectivity. Besides the major
Highways, the Haldia township has an extensive network of roads that serve the different
parts of the city and the industrial area.
A 4-Lane Expressway linking Haldia to Kolkata upto Airport (via Raichak-Kukrahati ) has also
become visible on the horizon. The Land acquisition for the road is nearing completion. There
is a proposal to build up a 4 lane bridge connecting Raichak with Kukrahati which will improve
connectivity with Kolkata and reduce the travel time.
6.3 Drinking Water Management and sewerage system
Supply of drinking water in Haldia and HDC is administered by Haldia Development Authority
(HAD). About 55 KL per day of water shall be required during operation of the LPG terminal
and the same shall be supplied by HAD. A well planned sewerage system is available in

import, Storage, bottling and BULK Distribution Facilities of M/S BPCL at HDC, Haldia
Haldia Township and is maintained by HAD. The sewerage system for the BPCl facilities shall
be developed in consultation with the local authorities.
6.4 Industrial & solid waste Management
The proposed project falls under non-polluting activities. There will be no industrial wastewater
generation, no sludge/solid waste generation and no air pollutant generation except by
intermittent operation of the DG sets & Fire water pumps. Hence, management of industrial
waste is not applicable at this point.
Insignificant solid waste generation during operation of the facilities cannot be ruled out. Thus,
any significant impact, practically immeasurable, on the nature of soil and physical features
due to spillage or disposal of solid wastes is not foreseen.
6.5 Power requirement & Supply / Source
Incoming power supply will be taken from WB State Electricity Board through an independent
feeder to ensure uninterrupted power supply from grid. The power requirement for operation of
the proposed twin transfer pipeline and LPG terminal of BPCL has been estimated to be 9834
KVA.
7.0 REHABILITATION AND RESETTLEMENT (R&R) PLAN
The proposed development is planned within the port premises of Haldia Dock Complex on
the existing industrial land allotted by HDC which does not fall under residential area hence,
the rehabilitation and resettlement is not applicable for this project.

9.0 ANALYSIS OF PROPOSAL (FINAL RECOMMENDATIONS)
The proposed project for LPG receipt, storage, bottling & dispatch facilities will be beneficial
for the region in terms of financial and social benefits. There will be revenue generation for the
for the Port by way of Lease rentals, Wharfages and other Port charges for marine operations
etc. The revenue generation for government will be thru Imports duties, VAT, etc. The
revenue by way of operation of the terminal is estimated to be Rs.155.4 Crores PA with a
throughput of 0.6 MMTPA (first year estimated throughput) & same will be increased year by
year due to increase in throughput. The project will generate employment for local people in
skilled, Semi-skilled and unskilled categories. The Tank farm operations will encourage the
ancillary/supporting units in the nearby areas which will further generate indirect employment.
The proposed site for LPG terminal & Majority of Pipeline Route does not fall in CRZ.
However, part of transfer pipelines passing through foreshore & jetty & Facilities being
installed at water front i.e. Jetty(HOJ-3) are falling under permissible limits of CRZ. As per
CRZ notification, 1991 and Cause 43 (a) & Clause 44 (B) of State Coastal Zone Management
Authorities, WB, “any activity within CRZ that requires water front & foreshore with Govt.
Clearance” are permissible in CRZ.
Further, it would not be out of place to mention that the Haldia Dock Complex was
identified as “CRITICALLY POLLUTED AREA/ ZONE” by CPCB. The moratorium
has now been lifted vide MoE Office Memorandum N. J-11013/5/2010-IA.II(i) dated
17.09.2013. The proposed project is a complementary requirement of the Haldia
Dock complex for the economy, better serviceability to end customer and to
improve the primary / secondary logistic cost.
The HDC has already got environmental clearance for the activities performed within the
land under its possession. Recently, HDC has got Environmental clearance for
establishment of fourth Jetty in the month of June, 2014.
Considering the above facts, the TOR may be granted for the proposed project for preparation
of EIA report as per the guidelines with a critical review w,r,t, CRZ clearance.
