5. Regular monitoring of influent and effluent surface, sub-surface and ground water shall beensured and treated wastewater shall meet the norms prescribed by the State Pollution ControlBoard or described under the E(P) Act whichever are more stringent. Leachate study for theeffluent generated and analysis should also be regularly carried out and report submitted to theMinistry’s Regional Office at Bangalore, SPCB and CPCB.6. The total water requirement shall not exceed 38.4 m 3 /day. ‘Zero’ effluent discharge shall bestrictly followed and no wastewater should be discharged outside the premises.7. Efforts shall be made to make use of rain water harvested. If needed, capacity of the reservoirshould be enhanced to meet the maximum water requirement. Only balance water requirementshould be met from other sources.8. Slag produced in Ferro Manganese (Fe-Mn) production shall be used in manufacture of SilicoManganese (Si-Mn). All the other ferro alloy slag shall be used in the preparation of buildingmaterials.9. No Ferro Chrome shall be manufactured without prior approval from the Ministry of Environment& Forests.10. Risk and Disaster Management Plan along with the mitigation measures should be prepared anda copy submitted to the Ministry’s Regional Office at Bangalore, SPCB and CPCB within 3months of issue of environment clearance letter.11. As proposed, green belt should be developed in at least 33 % of the project area. Selection ofplant species shall be as per the CPCB guidelines in consultation with the DFO.12. At least 5 % of the total cost of the project should be earmarked towards the Enterprise SocialCommitment based on locals need and item-wise details along with time bound action planshould be prepared and submitted to the Ministry’s Regional Office at Bangalore. Implementationof such program shall be ensured accordingly in a time bound manner.36.2.3 Establishment of low carbon ferro alloy manufacturing unit at Plot No.9, Peddapuram Industrialarea, Phase III, Kakinada Mandal, East Godavari District, Andhra Pradesh by M/s VeekaySmelters Pvt. Limited- regarding Environmental ClearanceThe project authorities and their consultant, M/s Pioneer Enviro Laboratories & Consultants Pvt.Ltd., Hyderabad gave a detailed presentation on the salient features of the project and proposedenvironmental protection measures to be undertaken as per the Draft Terms of Reference (TORs)awarded during the 32 nd EAC meeting held on 27 th - 28 th January, 2012 for preparation of EIA/EMP. Allthe Ferro alloy plants are listed at S.No. 3(a) in Primary Metallurgy Industry under Category A of theSchedule of EIA Notification 2006 and appraised by the Expert Appraisal Committee (Industry-1) ofMoEF.M/s Veekay Smelters Pvt. Ltd. have proposed to set up a low carbon ferro alloy manufacturingunit at Plot No.9, Peddapuram Industrial area, Phase III, Kakinada Mandal, East Godavari District,Andhra Pradesh. The land acquired for the project is 1.01 acres and green belt will be developed in 33%area. No R & R is involved. No National Park / Sanctuary is located within 10 km radius of the proposedproject site. Rameswaram Reserve Forest is at a distance of 6.5 Kms. from the project site. Total cost ofthe proposed project is Rs. 4.28 Crores. Rs. 0.25 Crores and Rs. 5.0 lakhs will be earmarked towardstotal capital cost and recurring cost/annum for environmental pollution control measures.Following are the proposed products and their production capacities:S. No. Item Capacity (MTPA)1. Low Carbon Ferro Manganese 48006
2. Low Carbon Ferro Chrome 12003. Chrome Metal 12004. Ferro Titanium 12005. Ferro Molybdenum 1200Total 9600Reaction Chamber will be used for manufacture of low carbon ferro alloys. The processproposed is Alumino Thermic Reduction. The Thermit Process for the production of Low Carbon FerroAlloys involves exothermic reaction, where heat is generated. Most of the raw material such asConcentrate of Molybdenum, Chromium, Titanium, Manganese, Lime Powder, AluminiumGranules/Powder, Silico Manganese & Ferro Silicon are received duly packed in HDPE bags and storedunder covered roof. The power requirement will be supplied by APIIC. The bagged material received inthe trucks is unloaded manually into the storage area. The persons engaged for this purpose will beprovided with personal protective equipment such as clear goggles, nose mask etc. The daily requiredmaterial will be transferred to the production bay from storage bay with the help of pay loaders and liftedto overhead silos by EOT Crane. Here also the persons (max 2 nos/day) engaged to open the bags willbe provided with clear goggles, nose mask etc.Ambient air quality monitoring was carried out at 8 locations during December 2011 to February2012 and the data indicated the average values as PM 2.5 (11.2 to 21.5 g/m 3 ), PM 10 (20.6 to 38.5 g/m 3 ),SO 2 (6.0 to 10.8 g/m 3 ) and NOx (6.2 to 11.7 g/m 3 ). The incremental values of PM 10 and NOx are 0.1µg/m 3 and 0.8 µg/m 3 respectively. The resultant concentrations are within the permissible limit.Fume extraction system with hoods followed by Ventury scrubber will be provided. Total waterrequired for the proposed plant is 13 KLD and will be supplied by APIIC. No wastewater will begenerated from the proposed low carbon ferro alloys plant as closed circuit cooling system will beadopted, only wastewater will be sanitary wastewater, which will be treated in septic tank followed bysoak pit. Most of the slag generated will be recycled in the process by using it for lining the reactionvessels to withstand the high reaction temperature. Balance slag will be sold to refractorymanufacturers, cement manufacturers and cast iron foundries. The slag will be crushed and given tobrick manufacturers.Public hearing is not required as per Para 7 (i) III (b) of EIA Notification, 2006 as the project islocated in notified industrial area.After detailed deliberation, the Committee recommended the project for environmental clearancesubject to stipulation of following specific conditions along with other environmental conditions:1. No charcoal shall be used as fuel. Pet coke shall be used as fuel instead of charcoal fromunknown sources.2. Continuous monitoring facilities for all the stacks and sufficient air pollution control equipmentsviz. fume extraction system with bag filters, ID fan and stack of adequate height to submergedarc furnace shall be provided to control emissions below 50 mg/Nm 3 .3. The National Ambient Air Quality Standards issued by the Ministry vide G.S.R. No. 826(E) dated16 th November, 2009 shall be followed.4. Secondary fugitive emissions from all the sources shall be controlled within the latest permissiblelimits issued by the Ministry and regularly monitored. Guidelines / Code of Practice issued by theCPCB shall be followed.7
