1 INTRODUCTION

1.1 Project Background

The Government of India has envisaged the development of Delhi Mumbai Industrial

Corridor (DMIC) along the alignment of proposed Multi-modal High Axle Load

Dedicated Freight Corridor (DFC) between Delhi and Mumbai, covering an overall

length of 1,483 km. It is envisaged that the area Influence Zone of 150 Sq-km on

both sides of the DFC alignment covering six states, should be planned as an

integrated region called DMIC. The DMIC spans across Six States and includes;

Gujarat, Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Haryana, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh

covering 91 Districts.

For this purpose, a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) named the Delhi-Mumbai

Industrial Corridor Development Corporation (DMICDC) has been incorporated for

achieving the goals of enhancing employment, industrial output and exports from the

region, with sectoral objectives of providing quality industrial investments and world-

class infrastructure facilities including supporting industrial, physical and social

infrastructure. The Integrated Industrial Township Greater Noida (IIT GN) is identified

as an early bird project under DMIC. For the project implementation of the proposed

DMIC Integrated Industrial Township Greater Noida Ltd (DMIC IITGNL) at

Greater Noida, a separate SPV (formally known as Integrated Industrial Township

Greater Noida Ltd. IITGNL) has been formed between DMIC Project Implementation

Trust and GNIDA. (Hereinafter referred as DMIC IITGNL). The SPV has been

constituted for development and management of the proposed DMIC Integrated

Industrial Township.

The location of the “DMIC Integrated Industrial Township” with respect to DMIC influence zone is shown in Figure 1-1 below:

2 PROJECT DESCRIPTION

The proposed site for “Integrated Industrial Township” is situated within the notified Greater NOIDA Master Plan – 2021 planning area and is located at its south-eastern

edge abutting the proposed Eastern Peripheral Expressway (EPE). The proposed

EPE runs parallel to the site on the southern boundary and adjoins the site on Delhi-

Howrah railway line in the east.

The proposed site for “Integrated Industrial Township” has an area of approximately 302.63 hectares. The “Integrated Industrial Township” project has been conceptualized to harness the potential of an already existing manufacturing cluster

(Greater Noida), which is in very close proximity to its proposed location. Some of the

key objectives associated with setting up of “Integrated Industrial Township” at Greater Noida are:

To act as catalyst for the industrial development of the investment region by

attracting skilled human resources at the Township,

To create benchmark for comprehensive built environment for future smart

cities, in DMIC investment region.

To strengthen the status of Greater NOIDA and NOIDA as a manufacturing

destination in the National Capital Region (NCR).

To encourage creation and growth of new business and economy as whole

by fostering collaboration and innovation, also enhancing the development,

transfer and commercially viable application of latest technology.

To foster collaboration between industries and existing/ proposed

educational institutes.

To promote new industries with value addition to existing industries.

2.1 Regional Context

The project site is surrounded by various land uses when analyzed with respect to

Draft GNIDA Master Plan 2021. The, eastern part abuts the proposed investment

region by DMIC - Dadri-Noida-Ghaziabad Investment Region. The south western and

the southern part abuts the tech zone and eco-tech zone, same have been illustrated

in Figure 3-2. Both zones are well planned industrial clusters. The southern and

eastern part of the site is surrounded by investment and intense activity oriented

zones related to industries and commercial activities and the eastern part adjoins the

residential use of Greater Noida.

The delineated site is also approximately 5km from the prime commercial centre/

central business district and Knowledge Parks proposed within Greater Noida Master

Plan. Other major land uses adjoining the Integrated Industrial Township include a

large residential zone towards the north-west, and industrial and institutional uses on

the south-eastern side.

Chapter III: Project Description 8 | P a g e

These existing and proposed neighbouring residential/industrial catchment areas are

highly compatible land uses surrounding the proposed Integrated Industrial

Township.

The proposed IIT, GN is connected to Greater NOIDA, NOIDA and Delhi through the

Yamuna Expressway via three existing 60m sector roads. Two of these sector roads

will cross the proposed IIT, GN to connect Greater NOIDA with the proposed DNGIR,

NH 91/GT Road and the proposed Eastern Peripheral Expressway (as proposed in

draft NCR Regional Plan 2021, currently under implementation). The nearest access

points to the Yamuna Expressway and NH 91/GT Road from the site are located at a

distance of approximately 11km and 6km, respectively. Based on field visits, a 60m

North-South road is being constructed along the western boundary of the site. Once

built, this road will connect the proposed DMIC IITGNL to the proposed Eastern

Peripheral Expressway’s (EPE) service roads, railway line and the proposed Metro Station at Boraki. These things have been depicted in the figure 3-4.

A major logistic hub/ MMTH also proposed to be developed as per draft NCR

Regional Plan, in the region which will give boost to the subject project site.

2.2 Site Description

The Lease Plan for Integrated Industrial Township is demarcated for 302.63 ha. Most

importantly the new land parcel of the project site includes a group of existing

structures towards the western side of the site. These existing structures appear to

be extension of the abutting settlement Ghodi Bachheda at the north western corner

of the site. A kutcha road connects the settlement to Ajaibpur Railway station and

diagonally crosses the site. The settlement in the current scenario appears to have

expanded along the kutcha road. (Refer figure 3-3)

The 60m GNIDA road continues to run all along the western edge of the site. The

revised land parcel of project area has a thin strip of land at the western edge of the

60m GNIDA road, the width of which varies from 35m to 45m. The subject lands are

currently under agricultural use.

The 220kv high tension lines are situated at the north-western corner of the site and

run parallel along the north-western periphery of the site. Apart from these, a pond is

located at the north-western corners of the sites, which is currently dried up and

appears to be much smaller when observed on satellite image.

The site is earmarked for the proposed GNIDA Master Plan roads at specific

stretches and is also featured with existing built roads. These roads are in different

stages of construction. The road south of Kot escape canal is a 45m wide fully

constructed road with a median. There is also an overhead electric cable line running

along the north edge of the road.

Towards the southern half of the site, partially built roads have been noted. Though

these roads are not represented in the GNIDA Master plan, they were built as 45m

wide roads. These roads are currently built as 24m wide road. Apart from these,

there are other kutcha roads (5m wide), built between the agricultural plots and the

hedges. These are mainly used by the nearby residents for daily commuting purpose.

The partially built 45m road running north-south towards the eastern side of the site

is the edge of the project site as per the revised Lease Plan. The road connects to

the 45m road running along the south of Kot-Escape.

Chapter III: Project Description 9 | P a g e

The site is also currently manifested with numerous mature trees spread across the

site. Dense tree plantation is observed particularly in some areas near the 60m elbow

road and towards the southern part of the site, near the existing settlement and

structures.

Ajayabpur settlement exists within the project site boundary as marked in GNIDA

Lease Plan. The settlement comprises of concrete structures and mostly residential.

A group of residential structures is also observed at the southern end of the site,

much smaller than Ajayabpur, and not a settlement in itself.

Rithori is another major settlement that previously was adjoining the site area at the

south-eastern part of the site. The revised Lease Plan shows the settlement to be

approximately 500m away from the site. The settlement continues to be primarily

accessed through the site on its western periphery as it is bordered by the existing

railway line on its eastern edge.

The 132 kv High tension Lines that were previous running the parallel along the

length of the site at the eastern end, have now been consciously excluded from the

project site area as per the revised Lease Plan. Although a smaller stretch of 132 Kv

HT lines still is a part of the project area on the north-eastern parcel – running along

the railway line.

The Delhi-Aligarh railway line running parallel to the eastern edge of the site has two

crossings across it along the eastern boundary of the site. One to the north of

Ajayabpur railway station and another towards the south-eastern tip of the site.

The site is currently partly under agriculture use. Even sized agriculture plots mainly

of wheat and mustard fields are observed all through the site. The site is primarily flat

in nature with a gentle slope towards Yamuna river side. However minor saucer

depressions are sighted towards the southern end of the site. Some pictures of

project site is given in Figure 3-5

Figure 2-5: Project Site Photographs

2.3 Land Use Zoning

The proposed zoning for the lIT, GN is based on various parameters such as field

observations, site challenges and opportunities, existing built infrastructure, case

studies etc. The road network is based on the already proposed GNIDA Master Plan

East: Railway Crossing Eastern

Boundary

South: Built Drainage along the Edge

Chapter II: Project Description 13 | P a g e

Roads. The site being linear in nature, a central spine road is proposed all along the

length of the site, which is to be projected as the main development corridor for the

site. The commercial land uses are zoned along the central corridor, such that their

access is towards the central spine road. This ensures that maximum density is

proposed along the central spine.

The industrial use is proposed to cover primary four types of industries spanning fifty

percent of the site area as per the landuse distribution requirement. The industries

are zoned based on visibility, accessibility and with respective surrounding landuse

zoning of the site.

Figure 2-6: Proposed Land Use Zoning

List of non-polluting, non-obnoxious industries proposed in the project is given in the

Table 2-1. Each industries details study will be carried out in the due course of time.

The residential use is proposed to be spread across the site in two- three locations -

closer to employment opportunities, so as to encourage walk-to-work concept in the

township.

There are central parks planned particularly around residential and commercial area.

The residential area is consciously not planned near the sensitive and non-conducive

area in the north side. (There is a crematorium and Railway line in North side

(outside the boundary) and SWM Facility) of the project area.

2.4 Layout Plan- DMIC IITGNL

The conceptual theme is based on 'geometric forms'. The layout plan is designed

whilst taking cognizance from the existing built infrastructure and site features .The

sectors formed through the proposed road network are detailed further with modular

plots.

The following are some special features of the Site Master Plan:

Grand Main Entrance on both sides from 8 m Sector Road.

Central Spine designed as Boulevard Road with varied landscape features

-parting unique identity to each sector and creating dramatic impact on the

users.

Canal Promenade to enhance the Urban Fabric of the place pleasing

aesthetics before entering the township.

Multiple Access Points -with only 50% of built roads retained

Continuous Linear Park along the Central Spine and Vibrant Central Park

Pedestrian/ Cyclist friendly development through Greenways.

Residential Clusters are planned distantly (at three locations, viz at the

junction of main entrance and 60m sector road; whilst the other along

2.5.1 Implementation horizon

The planning horizon for the DMIC IITGNL is about 10 years, this will ensure that

urban growth can be implemented in an efficient and cost effective manner over time

and that land uses and infrastructure are planned and provided in a coordinated

manner. The forecast of demand for industrial land derived from the market

assessment studies suggests that demand will build up slowly at first, and then grow

at a fast rate through the middle period and then level off as the township matures.

The demand for residential, commercial and other land uses will follow a similar

pattern.

2.6 Infrastructure Plan

2.6.1 Water Supply

Piped water supplies for DMIC Integrated Industrial Township (IIT) Greater Noida Ltd

will be provided for various needs such as drinking, cooking, bathing, washing,

flushing of toilets and gardening including commercial and industrial usages. To

reduce the load on the fresh water requirements and to achieve Zero discharge,

Recycled water usages for non potable uses are suggested.

For sustainable water use and to reduce the load on fresh water demand, recycled

water usage for various non potable purposes is planned. Calculation of wastewater

generation has been carried out considering sewerage generation @ 80% of potable

water use and 100% of non potable water use. Envisaged demand of potable, non

potable water is provided in Table 2-3 below. Principal water allocation letter

attached as Annexure IV

Table 2-3: Water Demand-Potable, Non-Potable

2.6.1.1 Source of Water

After discussions with GNIDA it was decided that a 210 MLD WTP at Palla Village

proposed under 85cusec Ganga Water Scheme shall be used as the main source of

water and also decided that GNIDA will provide water up to the project boundary.

Total potable water requirement: 8.6 MLD which will be met by GNIDA. Further

GNIDA has also sought approval from Irrigation Department for additional quantity of

7 MLD water from Upper Ganga Canal which will be supplied to DMIC IIT Greater

Noida project.

However as Ganga water scheme will be closed for annual maintenance and repair,

water from main branch and 85 cusec Ganga water project may not be made

available for one month. During this maintenance period, option of using rain water

by providing storage in pond was discussed. As the duration of rainfall is very less

and cost of underground reservoir for storing the rain water is very huge, option of

using underground water by drilling suitable number of bore well in the project area

was agreed. The necessary permission would be sought from the Ground Water

Authority for withdrawal of water

Initially, the construction in the DMIC IITGNL would involve infrastructure

development like roads, sewerage, water supply etc. The construction water for this

phase would be made available by tanker water supply.

2.6.1.2 Water Treatment Options

As treated water will be made available under 85 cusec Ganga Water project

scheme, no additional treatment for water is suggested. Only arrangement for

disinfection will be provided.

As bore well water will be supplied for one month duration only, no treatment for this

water has been suggested. The quality of treated water shall meet the standard set

as per “Water Supply and Treatment” manual, Central Public Health and Environmental Engineering Organisation.

Various best practices adopted in this project are:

Un-interrupted water supply system on 24 x 7 basis

Recycling of reclaimed water

Dual piping system (Potable and Non potable)

Complete automation using SCADA system(Supervisory Control & Data

Acquisition)

Efficient water distribution network management

Pipe network of quality pipes and fittings

Pressure & Flow monitoring

Active leakage control and detection

100% meter connection

Energy efficient pumps and motors (VFD Controlled)(Variable Frequency

Drive)

Optimized design of pumping main

2.6.2 Waste Water Management

The main objective of wastewater system is to ensure that the waste water generated

from various land parcels within project area is collected, conveyed, treated and

disposed off in safe Environmental friendly manner. The wastewater system would

be designed for the expected wastewater flow based on the water demands for

various land parcels. The design flow would be based on the saturated population of

the project town.

2.6.2.1 Waste Water Generation

Wastewater flow has been computed based on potable water supply to consumer (@

80%) and non-potable for flushing purpose (@ 100%). Infiltration will be considered

as per CPHEEO manual Summary of Waste Water generated in the township is

provided as Table 2-4.

While planning for providing a comprehensive sewerage system to the project

township, entire Township has been divided into three wastewater collection &

treatment zones in previously submitted master plan. However during discussion with

GNIDA, it was advised to integrate the sewerage system with existing sewerage

system and discharging the sewage to the STP-1 of 72 MLD capacity proposed

under peripheral sewerage system of 14 sectors of Greater Noida and thus

eliminating the construction of additional STP inside the project premises.

Though the proposed site is partially covered with sewerage network only the

sewerage network laid along the 60m North South Road can be used. The entire

sewage will be collected by providing sewer network and system will be

interconnected with already laid sewer line along the 60m wide North-South road,

which is already connected to the STP-1 proposed under peripheral sewerage

scheme.

Construction Period contractor will be contractually obliged to construct Pit latrines

and community toilets with septic tanks followed by soak pits will be constructed for

construction workers.

2.6.2.2 Wastewater/Sewage Treatment Plant

Proposed township is to be developed mainly as industrial hub (non-polluting)

followed by commercial and residential land use and hence the sewage generation

will be of domestic municipal nature.

Municipal sewage generally contains high BOD, suspended solids, COD, faecal coli-

forms and pathogens with respect to disposal norms of receiving water body or to

ground. The following alternative processes have been considered which appear to

be suitable for this magnitude of STP:

Moving Bed Bio-reactor (MBBR)

Sequential Batch reactor (SBR)

Membrane Bio Reactor (MBR)

Activated Sludge plant (ASP)

Factors influencing the selection of a process of STP are generally:

Performance efficiency in removal of BOD, COD, Suspended solid and

coliform

Land requirement vis-à-vis availability

Page 27: (SPV of DMIC Project Implementation Trust and GNIDA)environmentclearance.nic.in/writereaddata/Online/...Conceptual Plan of DMIC Integrated Industrial Townsh ip Greater Noida [DMIC

Conceptual Plan of DMIC Integrated Industrial Township Greater Noida [DMIC IITGNL]

Chapter II: Project Description 22 | P a g e

Capital cost

Odour nuisance

Quality of effluent with respect to its disposal and utilization

Operation & Maintenance (O & M) cost

Considering the factors as discussed above, SBR appears to be most suitable

technology and hence recommended for the treatment of wastewater at DMIC IIT

Greater Noida. However as the proposed STP under Peripheral sewerage scheme in

Greater NOIDA is based on SBR technology, hence no additional treatment is

required inside the project area. For using recycled water, a pumping main will be

provided from the STP to the proposed Ground level reservoir inside the project area.

2.6.2.3 Zero Discharge Concept

The concept of Zero Discharge is:

By reusing treated waste water for non-potable water demand, justified

utilization of natural water resources is ensured;

Reuse of treated waste water enhances the capacity of the industry to

efficiently utilize available water as well as control its quality to the required

level.

With an increase in demand of natural resources it is essential to target

Zero Discharge system for any upcoming infrastructure development.

In view of above, the proposed township has been suggested to meet its non-potable

water demand (e.g. Landscaping, Horticulture, Flushing and makeup water for HVAC

etc.) by recycling the treated waste water, hence reducing the raw water demand

from source and making the water supply scheme more sustainable. For this

purposed Tertiary Treatment will be provided to the secondary treated wastewater to

achieve required quality of reclaimed water to be recycled. Detail Water mass

balance diagram shown in the figure 2-10.

2.6.2.4 Recycling of Wastewater

Distribution of recycled water is planned through direct pumping from Ground Level

reservoir. The reclaimed water will be collected in the ground level reservoir by

providing pumping main from the STP. From there the reclaimed water will be

pumped to each land parcel level. Recycled water will be delivered at the boundary

of each land parcel.

2.6.3 Storm Water Drainage

The Delhi-Howrah railway line passes parallel to north east boundary of the project

area, where as the Kalda distributory canal abuts south western side of the project

area. Kot escape canal passes through the north western boundary of project site.

The topography of the project site is more or less flat in nature. The northern half of

the project area generally gravitates towards the Kot Escape canal, while the rest of

the project area gravitates towards the Kalda Distributory canal. The ground

elevation varies from 207 m to 202 m.

2.6.3.1 Proposed Storm Water Drainage System

Management of storm water within the site is planned as far as possible along the

natural topography pattern. Only essential changes to the existing drainage are

proposed.

Figure 2-12: Proposed Storm Water Drainage network – DMIC IITGNL

The trunk mains are planned along the central spine road which is designed to cater

to the storm runoff from the catchment area up to the railway track. This also includes

the adjacent villages, i.e., Ajayabpur and Rithori. The trunk main will be integrated

with the existing (newly constructed) storm water drains along the North South road.

Only essential changes to the existing drainage are proposed such that number of

culverts across the arterial road is minimized and depths of outfalls are feasible for

gravity flow. The major trunk drains are routed to discharge into the two zones,

having their outfall in Kot Escape canal at various locations. The project area is

divided in to 2 catchments. The details are provided in Table 2-5 below.

The road side drains are proposed as rectangular covered drains constructed in RCC

which would be designed to outfall the storm water runoff into the proposed trunk

drain network on the main roads dividing the sectors eventually leading to natural

drains. A minimum section of 0.3 m X 0.3 m drain is proposed for internal drains

2.6.3.2 Disposal Scheme

The high flood level (HFL) of the trunk drain in which proposed drainage system

(drains along the internal roads) is discharging should be lower than the IL of the

incoming drain. The proposed layout of the storm water drainage scheme is planned

along the sides of the main arterial roads and peripheral boundary. Individual plot

developer is expected to connect their internal drains to these main drains planned

for the project area

2.6.3.3 Rain Water Harvesting

There is small pond at North West corner of the project site of about 0.72ha. This

pond will be developed as rainwater harvesting structure. Rainwater harvesting is a

technology used to collect, convey and store rain for later use from relatively clean

surfaces such as a roof, land surface or rock catchment. Rainwater harvesting

creates artificial detention storage and also enhances natural recharge of rainwater

into the ground. This reduces as well as delays the peak load on the storm water

drainage system. The secondary goal is to alleviate stress on the natural water

balance by rainwater conservation either in the form of artificial storage or natural

ground water resources. Rain water harvesting is essential for the project area

because:-

Ground water will be explored as a source for water supply presently and in future.

Due to rapid urbanization, infiltration of rain water into the sub-soil is likely

to decrease drastically and recharging of ground water would be

diminished.

To enhance availability of groundwater at specific place and time.

To raise the water levels in wells & bore wells.

The engineering design of rain water harvesting system would be based on total run-

off volume available within the area, nature of formation & depth of existing ground

water level.

2.6.4 Solid Waste Management

The objective of solid waste management system for the township is to manage

waste generation, storage, collection, transportation, treatment and disposal of solid

waste in a manner that is in accordance with the applicable statutory norms and the

best principles of public health, economics, engineering, aesthetics, and other

environmental considerations.

Solid waste is generated from a number of sources which include households

(kitchen and yards), commercial areas (shops, hotels, and restaurants), non polluting

industries (raw material, packaging and e-waste), institutions (schools, hospitals, and

Page 32: (SPV of DMIC Project Implementation Trust and GNIDA)environmentclearance.nic.in/writereaddata/Online/...Conceptual Plan of DMIC Integrated Industrial Townsh ip Greater Noida [DMIC

offices), parks (fallen branches, leaves from trees) and streets (sand, silt, clay,

concrete, bricks, asphalt, residues from air deposition and dust)

2.6.4.1 Tentative Quantity & Area Required:

IIT-Greater Noida would be an integrated township, which would have non polluting

industries, commercial activities, institutional and residential product mix. The

assessment of waste from these proposed product mix for DMIC IITGNL would be

based on metro cities, integration plan approach and current practices of Class -I

towns of U.P. State. The facilities would be independent to the extent possible and

adopt the philosophy of minimum discharge.

The approach for selection of unit rate of solid waste assessment from various

sources at DMIC IITGNL has been referred from similar nature of development in

U.P. State, in absence of appropriate information, CPHEEO/ NEERI & GNIDA

reports have been referred. Thus, the solid waste generation from DMIC IITGNL has

been considered in the range of 62.86 MT/ Day to 145.98 MT/ day as per prevailing

and applicable norms. Either CPHEEO or RCUE standards/ norms may be approved

so as to work out and finalize the waste generation from integrated township.

2.6.4.2 Proposal for Solid Waste Management within Project Boundary

Waste generated in the form of biodegradable and recyclable shall be in the preview

of IITGNL. However, E-waste (Management & Handling) Rules 2016, The Hazardous

waste (Management, Handling and Trans-boundary Movement) Rules - 2016,

Page 33: (SPV of DMIC Project Implementation Trust and GNIDA)environmentclearance.nic.in/writereaddata/Online/...Conceptual Plan of DMIC Integrated Industrial Townsh ip Greater Noida [DMIC

Conceptual Plan of DMIC Integrated Industrial Township Greater Noida [DMIC IITGNL]

Chapter III: Project Description 28 | P a g e

Biomedical Waste (Management & Handling) Rules, 2016 shall be abided

accordingly.

As per the MoEFCC guidelines, all the biomedical waste and E-Waste shall be

collected separately by the polluters/ generators within their premises and shall be

separately handled by authorized vendors. Thus there is no proposal of processing/

segregation of E-Waste and Bio-Medical Waste from Industries and Hospital.

2.6.4.3 Tentative Proposal for Transfer Station & Site Selection:

A Waste Transfer Station is an important component of a waste management system

and functions as a link between a community’s solid waste collection program and a final waste management system. There may be significant differences in the facility

size, ownership and services offered but the basic purpose is to consolidate waste

from multiple collection vehicles into larger long-haul vehicles for more economical

shipment to a final waste management system. The basic type of transfer station has

a designated receiving area where waste is unloaded, often compacted and reloaded

into larger high volume vehicles, usually in a matter of hours.

The environmental impact of a Waste Transfer Station are expected to be minimal

due to the fact that waste is not disposed off at the site, there is no long term storage

of waste and all waste shall be contained while on site. Transfer stations may also

function as centres to separate or sort waste into portions that may be reused or

recycled further reducing the final volume of waste that is transported for disposal.

The planning for segregation, transportation and processing has been considered

only for Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) of 58.91 MT/ day to 136.43.17 MT/ Day. In the

layout plan, the area considered for Transfer Station is 1.0 Ha for MSW waste, kept

on higher side so as to have maximum buffer and green area.

2.6.4.4 Site Selection for Transfer Station (TS)

The site is connected with Solid Waste Landfill-cum-Processing unit proposed by

GNIDA for Greater Noida. The Upcoming Landfill site (as in GNIDA 2031 MP) is

about 15 km (near Astoli village) from proposed TS and thus the TS would be a link

between DMIC IITGNL and Landfill site.

2.6.4.5 Waste Collection and Transportation

The underground pneumatic system Automated Waste Collection System (AWCS) is

proposed for DMIC IITGNL. The segregated waste would be conveyed from source

through underground pipes to the Waste Management Facility (WMF) located at

North side of the development.

The waste generated from garden and road sweeping, and from bulk generators

would be transported by compactor trucks to the WMF. The waste would be further

screened at WMF and the bio-degradable part of the waste would be treated in Bio-

methanation (BM) plant. Modular BM plant of 25TPD is proposed for DMIC IITGNL.

The rejects from BM plant and other inert waste would be sent to the proposed

upcoming Landfill site (by GNIDA) at Astoli village for further treatment and disposal.

2.6.4.6 Planning for different types of waste generated from Project area:

Biodegradable/ Compostable Waste: In general about 43.9% of total MSW is

biodegradable in nature. Thus total biodegradable/ compostable waste from DMIC

Page 34: (SPV of DMIC Project Implementation Trust and GNIDA)environmentclearance.nic.in/writereaddata/Online/...Conceptual Plan of DMIC Integrated Industrial Townsh ip Greater Noida [DMIC

Conceptual Plan of DMIC Integrated Industrial Township Greater Noida [DMIC IITGNL]

Chapter III: Project Description 29 | P a g e

IITGNL would be approx. 25.86 TPD out of total 58.91 TPD (excluding E-Waste &

Biomedical Waste (BMW)). It is proposed to compost this waste by Bio-Methanation

so as to plan for sustainable process plant in terms of electricity requirement.

Compost generated from the BM plant would be used for gardening purpose in DMIC

IITGNL.

Recyclable Waste: Approx. 21.2% of total waste would be recyclable in nature

which comes out to be about 12.49 TPD. A policy would be formulated to deal with

recyclable waste and can be sold out to the authorized vendors through either PPP

or any other mode.

Non-Biodegradable Waste: Generally, about 34.9% of total MSW waste is non-

biodegradable in nature which comes out to be approx. 20.56 TPD. To cater non

biodegradable/ inert waste, it is proposed to transport these waste to the upcoming

landfill site (as per GNIDA master plan 2031). At landfill site, these waste can be

further segregated and inert/ residual can be disposed off into the landfill.

Bio-Medical Waste (BMW): As per the prevailing norms for handling & managing

BMW waste, it is the utmost responsibility of polluter to deal with these wastes

separately. The hospitals are required to get engaged with local NGOs or firms

working in the same field so as to manage their biomedical wastes. Approximately

about 25% of total wastes generated from hospitals are biomedical wastes in nature.

E-Waste: From Indian scenario, approximately 7% of total MSW is E-Waste which

comprises of old TV, printers, computers and its accessories, CFL or other lightings,

Mobiles etc. As per prevailing norms for E-Waste in India, it is mandatory to

segregate the E-Waste separately and deal with the same at premises level. A policy

may be framed to support the producers of E-Waste so as to manage the same

through external agencies. The planning for engaging external agency would be

done at PDR stage of this project.

Construction Waste: During construction stage, the contractor will provide garbage

bins in the camp and construction sites and it will be ensured that these are regularly

emptied and disposed off in a hygienic manner as per the Solid Waste Management

Plan as per Solid Waste (Handling and Management) Rule 2016. Burning of wastes

will not be allowed. Solid wastes generated at the construction site, plant & camp

sites, will be collected in covered waste bins and segregated as biodegradable (food

waste, paper, etc) and non-biodegradable (plastic, polyethylene bag, etc) wastes.

Polyethylene/plastic wastes will be stored in empty cement bags and to be sent for

recycling through scrap dealer. Biodegradable (food waste, paper, etc) solid waste

will be disposed in compost pit. The scraps like Iron materials, broken pieces of

stones, bricks, unused sand materials etc. will be generated. Since there is no

demolition work involved there is very little amount of waste will be generated.

Management of C&D wastes would be as per the provisions of construction and

demolition waste management rules, 2016. These wastes will not be mixed with the

municipal solid waste.

The construction waste generated during construction/ development of township

would be planned to get utilized within the township for filling of roads/ embankments

or for construction of pavements. Excess of same would be disposed off in a much

secured manner to the nearby low lying area along roadside. The quantity of

construction waste cannot be determined at this stage and would be quantified at

later stage.

During operational stage, all industries located within the DMIC IITGNL will meet

National and State environmental pollution regulations. The DMIC IITGNL is intended

for non polluting industries which can treat their own waste on site before safe

discharge into the various waste disposal modes.

2.6.5 Power Requirement

The site for the proposed Integrated Industrial Township is part of the delineated site

for Delhi-Noida-Ghaziabad Investment Region (DNGIR). It has a total site area of

302.63 Ha (747.5 acres). The proposed township is planned adjacent to the already

developed sectors of Greater Noida.

2.6.5.1 Power Demand Calculation

For planning of external electrical infrastructure estimation of total power demand has

been made for each product mix of the project area based on proposed land use,

power demand norms & considering FSI’s. Based on the power demand norms &

FSI’s adopted for DMIC IITGNL total ultimate power demand is about 182 MVA.

Total power demand for this area is estimated at 182 MVA.

Authorization Letter for granting 182MVA power drawn by UPPTCL vide letter No

CEO/DMICDC/2015/8 dated 20th April 2015. Two possible sources for IIT Greater

Noida proposed by UPPTCL are 400/220 kV UPPTCL Existing Pali Substation

(Present capacity of 1415 MVA) (7-8kM away from IIT Site) 400/220 kV Chholas (

Sikandrabad) Substation which is under construction (13-14kM away from DMIC

IITGNL Site) It is planned to take two feeders from each source substation to feed

power supply to IIT, GN 220kV GIS Substation (Main receiving substation )through

double circuit line.

No DG back up power is considered as power is coming from two separate sources.

By studying power quality of existing Pali substations in case of failure of one source,

power will be fed from other available source. Therefore DG power back up is not

required.

2.6.5.2 Renewable Energy Potential:

Solar based generation requires huge area of land. However, with an increased

emphasis on renewable energy, such generation can be pursued in un-usable area

of the designated plot, roof top of common infrastructural buildings or on the roof tops

of consumer installation. However, such a composition of solar plants may not be

able to supply to the requirement of the entire IIT, GN but shall be able to cater to a

limited extent which can be used to feed the street lighting and utilities load.

Presently, with reference to IIT, GN plot plan, the 800m long and 25m wide canal

through the plot can be utilised to install a Canal-top solar plant with Photovoltaic

(PV) technology. Considering an area of 20,000 sq m; and geographical position of

Dadri with respect to the longitude, latitude and elevation, a 1.0MWp solar PV

installation is possible. About 1752MWh/ year generation is possible with an

expected capacity utilization factor (CUF) of 18% which shall be fed to the base

power supply to feed the street lighting and utilities load.

The main advantages of canal top solar panel installation are:

Minimum use of Usable Land,

Conserve water by reducing the evaporation losses of canal water,

Generates Green energy.

Similarly, DMIC IITGNL can encourage the consumers to install solar power on roof

tops that can be connected with the network by offering motivating incentives for

those who undertake such measures. Such plants can be installed in the un-usable

area of the designated plot like Canal top, roof top of common infrastructural

buildings like Substation, commercial complex, schools and hospitals etc. The

estimated available area for roof top solar panels is around 247 acre areas

(considering average 45% ground coverage of total plot area 223 Ha including

residential, commercial and industrial plots and utilities). Land requirement is approx.

Conceptual Plan of DMIC Integrated Industrial Township Greater Noida [DMIC IITGNL]

Chapter III: Project Description 32 | P a g e

5 acre/MW. Approximately 8MW solar power can be generated by considering 18%

capacity utilization factor.

Solar power can be generated minimum @5% of total power demand by installing

roof top solar panels at each consumer plots and canal top solar panel.

As regard to wind based generation, Greater Noida is not under recommended wind

zone for the Wind Power Plants, hence this option cannot be considered for power

generation. The thermal characteristics of the building envelope will be developed by

individual developer in line with ECBC guidelines

2.6.5.3 Solar powered LED street lighting:

Approx. 40% solar powered street lighting load shall be considered. 100%

standalone solar PV panels on each street lighting pole cannot be

recommended due to following reasons;

For 60-80M ROW: Solar powered street lighting are not recommended in

main carriage way as required lux level shall not achieved due to high road

width in 60-80M.Solar powered lights are considered only in secondary

carriage way, Cycle track , Pedestrian Pathway.

For 30-45M ROW: Solar powered lights are recommended only in main

carriage way, Cycle track & Pedestrian Pathway.

Standalone solar street lighting near high rise buildings cannot be proposed

due to constraint of sunlight availability.

2.6.6 Master Plan Provision for Green Area Development

Green belts are planned strips of vegetation where other infrastructural

developmental activities are prohibited. Green belts have many advantages. They

protect natural or semi-natural environments, serving as contiguous habitat networks

for wild plants, animals and wildlife. They improve air quality within urban areas

(Prajapati and Tripathi 2008) and provide noise pollution control (Fang and Ling

2005). They act as carbon sinks, help retain soil moisture, recharge groundwater and

moderate the micro-climate (CPCB Guidelines for Green Belt, 2000). In addition to

providing aesthetic pleasure, they provide walking, camping, and biking areas close

to the cities and towns

About 40.8 ha land is earmarked for dedicated green belt development. The green

belt area of the project area is provided in Figure 3-14. The number of trees would

be about 6000. Over and above the dedicated green belt each plot will also have

green and open spaces as per the requirement of GNIDA byelaws. It is proposed to

have native species. The IIT, GN shall be marked by its green landscapes, and

characterised by flowers and fountains mirroring the township’s relaxed life-style.

Visual impact of greenery and landscape.

Development of township recreational greens.

Plantation of predominantly flowering trees and shrubs

Distinct flowering green belts along the major roads and within the sub-

roads.

Chapter III: Project Description 34 | P a g e

Plantation on major roads including Medians/ Central verge on Entry road

and the Promenade.

Development of Entry to the township and major roundabouts as focal

points with fountains and landscaping.

Ajayabpur and Rithori village have a 60m wide green belt planned around it

as well as equipped with proposed plotted development by GNIDA.

As per GNIDA’s proposal for Rithori, there are several residential plots having access through 12-18m roads. There are plots reserved for

community purpose use and few green pockets.

Green Area as per Master Plan 20211

Green Areas of 40.8 ha dedicated for green areas.

A minimum of 15% of Institutional/ Incidental Green (as a mandate by state

byelaws) in each individual unit coming up in IIT, GN.

Road side Avenue plantation along the total stretch of roads in 3 or 2 tier,

depending on the road width. Also, evergreen plantation on median of 12m

will be taken up to enhance ground water recharge and biodiversity in the

area.

Kot Escape Canal & Main Kadala distributaries canal front to be developed

to enhance the biological diversity of the area.

The concept of inter-linked green spaces is a predominant feature in the

township structure.

Environmental protection and enhancement will be achieved with planning

for both initial and long‐term management and conservation measures.

2.6.6.1 Species selection: As per CPCB Guidelines.

Selection of tree species to be planted in Green Belt depends on various factors, first

and foremost being the suitability of that species as per the climate and soil type of a

given area. In addition, some species are better suited for tolerating air pollution

(Prajapati and Tripathi 2008, Shannigrahi et al. 2003). Some species are more

preferred by birds for nesting (Dutta and Raut 2015; Ranjan and Kushwaha 2013) or

butterfly larva for feeding (KFRI report 2010) and hence, have a more important

ecological role.

The Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) prepared an exhaustive list of species

capable of air pollution remediation, and classified them as per various bio-climatic

conditions.

Also, it has been found that shrubs species richness positively affects bird species

diversity (Paker et al. 2014; Peters 2014). Hence, a two-tier green belt has been

considered superior. In the following table 2-7 and 2-8 tree and shrub species

suitable for landscape elements; and broader list of suitable plants/trees/shrubs

According to the spacing requirements provided in below plant list, approximate

numbers of trees/plants need to be installed along the roads and green areas within

the project site are as follows:

2.7 Transportation

The roads account for 26.34% of the site area with Sector roads accommodating

14.20% and Internal roads taking up 15.89% of the site area. Vehicular (motorised

and non-motorised) traffic for this site comprises mostly of cars, buses, trucks

and cyclists.

The generic road classification is based on its width and function and is classified as

Arterial (80m), Collector (60m), Distributor (30-45m), Local Road (18-30m), Access

Road (<15m) and Greenway (6-10m).

The traffic is fed in to the site from 80m sector road to the North and 60m sector road

to the West respectively, and channelled through the 60m Central Spine further

feeding to 30 and 45m

2.7.1 Roadway Cross-Sections

All the 60m ROW roads proposed as part of Layout Plan will consist of six-lane

divided sections in addition to service lanes and BRT lanes. Similarly, all 45m ROW

roads will also consist of six-lane divided sections. According to recent studies

published by the Institute of Urban Transport (India), the capacity of six-lane roads is

approximately 2,230 PCU per lane per hour, or approximately 6,700 PCUs per

direction per hour. Capacity indicates the maximum traffic volumes that can be

served by a road and represents congested conditions. Therefore, roads are

designed for desirable service volumes (design hour volume). IRC 106:1990

recommends that six-lane divided arterials can comfortably accommodate

approximately 5,400 PCUs per hour. However, IRC 106:1990 also recommends that

the design hour volumes should be approximately 70% of the road's capacity.

Therefore, a range of 5,400 PCUs/hour to 9,400 PCUs/ hour was used to determine

roadway cross-sections for the proposed roads. Graphical illustrations of roadway

cross-sections are shown in Figure 3-15 through Figure 3-20. Based on preliminary

analysis, the proposed roads will be able to accommodate the expected traffic

demand.

2.7.2 Parking Guidelines

The Regulations states for various means of Parking Provision such as:

2.7.2.1 Multi-Level Mechanised Parking

Multi-level parking should be developed in the designated parking spaces/plots.

Multi-level facilities shall be allowed in all type of plots along with mechanised

parking.

2.7.2.2 Basement Parking

In plots larger than 12,000 sq m, the basement shall be allowed upto minimum

setback of 6m. There will be no restriction on the number of levels of basements

subject to mechanical ventilation as per provision in National building Code – 2005,

water proofing and structural safety. Evergreen trees shall have to be planted in

setback as per landscaping norms of the regulation.

Height of first basement above ground will be 1.5mts below the roof slab. Where stilt

or podium parking is permitted, the first basement roof will be levelled with the

ground and the roof slab of the extended basement up to envelop line shall be

designed for the fire tender load.

The height of the basements from floor to ceiling shall be maximum up to 4.5 metres.

The ramp within setbacks shall be permissible subject to free and convenient

movement of fire tenders.

Adequate fire safety, light, ventilation and air change through mechanical means

shall be provided as per provisions in NBC 2005.

The basements may be used only for parking, services like fire rooms and storage of

non hazardous materials.
