It is requested to kindly consider the proposal in the ensuing EAC meeting for grant of EC. | 10 Jul 2021 | | 2. | NA | The EAC after detailed deliberations observed that the proposed project is of amalgamation of EC with additional area of 26.39 ha. The coal reserve of JVR-I will get exhausted by the end of this year and accordingly mine void of JVR-I will be used for dumping OB material. Accordingly, earlier, Mine Closure Plan of JVR-I has been changed. It was observed that surface quality of nearby water tank is poor and exceeding the norms. Also, it was noted that disposal of washery rejects from proposed new coal washery, in OB dump may have safety issue and leads to wastage of extracted resources. Certified Compliance report of JVR-OC II submitted by Ministry’s Regional Office have various non-compliance based on site visit conducted in September, 2019. No certified compliance report of EC of JVR-OC I has been submitted by Project Proponent. Amendment of EC conditions of JVR-OC II regarding transportation by road till December 2021 is under consideration in the Ministry. Further, there are various issues which required further deliberations and suitable response. Therefore, after deliberation, the Committee recommend to defer the proposal for want of following information.
(i) PP shall submit Past Production details of both the said mines since inception of mine duly authenticated by departments of Mine and Geology Government of Telangana or from Coal Controller vis-à-vis CTO.
(ii) Fresh certified compliance report from Ministry’s Regional Office shall be obtained and accordingly also submit action taken report of both the ECs (JVR- OC I and JVR OC II).
(iii) PP should submit details of control blasting with adequate safeguard for nearby people.
(iv) PP should conduct Noise and vibration monitoring in nearby habitation/villages during day and night for 1 month.
(v) PP should submit the point wise reply of Public Hearing with timeline and fund alloted. Proper response of public consultation with regard to pollution mitigation measures and demands of local people
(vi) Expenditure incurred for wildlife conservation, submitted during earlier ECs.
(vii) PP should submit Effectiveness report of road and vegetation checked by authority.
(viii) PP shall bring out the action plan for upgrading the skills of the local people already employed in the mines.
(ix) PP should submit the fund allocated for green belt development with proper timeline. PP should submit the detailed plan in tabular format (year-wise for life of mine) for afforestation and green belt development in and around the mining lease. PP should show on a surface plan (5-year interval for life of mine) of suitable scale the area to be covered under afforestation & green belt clearly mentioning the latitude and longitude of the area to be covered during each 5 years
(x) PP should submit the plan for installation of CAAQMS and its display system in the nearby habitations or at mine office.
(xi) Plan and allotted fund for maintenance and widening (if any) for road transportation (32 km) of coal till the commissioning of railway siding.
(xii) PP shall study the impact Assessment and its mitigation measures w.r.t. proposed road route on receptors for environment parameters as per Ambient Air Quality standards.
(xiii) Ministry shall form the EAC Subcommittee to conduct site visit to analyze the prevailing condition of the current scenario and implementation of measures approved by Ministry while granting EC dated 1st February, 2021 regarding Remediation plan and Natural and Community Resource Augmentation Plan
(xiv) PP shall propose air pollution mitigation measures for nearby villages of Kistaram and Siddaram.
(xv) Plan for utilization of washery rejects in FBC Power Plant/ Thermal Power Plant.
