Details will be worked out during EIA studies with special focus on areas close to habitation so that appropriate mitigation measures can be designed. | | 6.5 | From construction or operational traffic | Yes | During construction phase, there will be increase in vehicular movement for transportation of construction material. During construction phase, the increase in vehicular movement is expected to increase substantially.
Based on past experience, impacts on ambient noise levels due to operation of construction equipment, and increased vehicular movement is not expected to be significant. However, this aspect shall be covered in detail as a part of the Comprehensive EIA study. | | 6.6 | From lighting or cooling systems | No | | | 6.7 | From any other sources | No | | |
