S. No.Type of Project Benefits Details of Project Benefits
(1.)Environmental• No any land from GIB Sanctuary will be utilized for industrial purpose. All project activities will be limited to MIDC land only. • Protection of GIB habitat i.e. Grassland habitat. • No any untreated effluent shall be let out into nearby water body or land. • Nature conservation and environmental protection activities involving local youth and local schools shall be planned on priority under industry’s CSR activity. • Activities like slide shows or expert’s lectures on GIB shall be arranged f
(2.)SocialThe skilled labours and unskilled labours would be required under the proposed project. Thereunder, total 700 workers shall be required.Preference would be given, for the job opportunities, to those labors who are residing nearby. Thus, there would be marginal increase in the employment at local level. Secondary employment in the form of contract jobs would also be a positive impact of the proposed project activities.
(3.)FinancialThere is a good demand of products manufactured from proposed industrial unit in national and international markets. Organic Chemicals with wide range of application in various industries such as Pesticides, Fungicides, Rubber Chemicals, Dyestuffs, Drugs, Acrylic Fibers, Ion Exchange Resins, Corrosion Inhibitors, Catalysts etc. Based on growth of these user industries the demand for Ethyl & Methyl Amines is also steadily increasing
