(ii)(iii)(iv)(v)(vi)Necessary forestry clearance under the Forest (Conservation) Act, 1980 for anarea of 17.183ha forestland shall be obtained before starting mining operation inthat area. Till such time mining activities shall be restricted to an area of 2.367haforestland for which in principle forestry clearance has been obtained from theMinistry on 25.03.2008. The environmental clearance is subject to grant offorestry clearance...3/-The mining operations shall be restricted to above ground water table and itshould not intersect groundwater table. In case of working below ground watertable, prior approval of the Ministry of Environment & Forests and CentralGround Water Authority shall be obtained for which a detailed hydro-geologicalstudy shall be carried out.The project proponent shall ensure that no natural water course and/or waterresources shall be obstructed due to any mining operations.The over burden (OB) generated during the mining operation shall temporarily bestacked at earmarked dump site(s) only for backfilling. The existing OB dumpsshall be liquidated within five years. Concurrent backfilling shall start from the 6 thyear onwards and there shall be no external over burden dump at the end of themine life. The backfilled area shall be reclaimed and rehabilitated by plantation.Monitoring and management of rehabilitated areas shall continue until thevegetation becomes self-sustaining. Compliance status shall be submitted to theMinistry of Environment & Forests and its Regional Office located atBhubaneswar on six monthly basis.Catch drains and siltation ponds of appropriate size shall be constructed aroundthe working pit(s), soil, mineral and OB dumps to prevent run off of water andflow of sediments directly into the the Kusumdihi Nallah, Samij Nallah, KaroRiver and other water bodies. The water so collected should be utilized forwatering the mine area, roads, green belt development etc. The drains should beregularly desilted particularly after monsoon and maintained properly.Garland drains, settling tanks and check dams of appropriate size, gradientand length shall be constructed both around the mine pit and temporary overburden dumps to prevent run off of water and flow of sediments directly into theKusumdihi Nallah, Samij Nallah, Karo River and other water bodies and sumpcapacity should be designed keeping 50% safety margin over and above peaksudden rainfall (based on 50 years data) and maximum discharge in the areaadjoining the mine site. Sump capacity should also provide adequate retentionperiod to allow proper settling of silt material. Sedimentation pits should beconstructed at the corners of the garland drains and desilted at regular intervals.(vii)Dimension of the retaining wall at the toe of temporary dumps and OB bencheswithin the mine to check run-off and siltation should be based on the rain fall38
data.(viii) Plantation shall be raised in an area of 31.528ha including a 7.5m wide green beltin the safety zone around the mining lease, backfilled and reclaimed area, roadsetc. by planting the native species in consultation..4/-with the local DFO/Agriculture Department. The density of the trees should bearound 2500 plants per ha.(ix)(x)(xi)(xii)Effective safeguard measures such as regular water sprinkling shall be carried outin critical areas prone to air pollution and having high levels of SPM and RPMsuch as haul road, loading and unloading point and transfer points. It should beensured that the Ambient Air Quality parameters conform to the norms prescribedby the Central Pollution Control Board in this regard.Regular monitoring of water quality upstream and downstream of KusumdihiNallah, Samij Nallah and other steams, if any shall be carried out and record ofmonitoring data should be maintained and submitted to Ministry of Environmentand Forests, its Regional Office, Bhubneswar, Central Groundwater Authority,Regional Director, Central Ground Water Board, State Pollution Control Boardand Central Pollution Control Board.The project authority shall implement suitable conservation measures to augmentground water resources in the area in consultation with the Regional Director,Central Ground Water Board.Regular monitoring of ground water level and quality shall be carried out in andaround the mine lease by establishing a network of existing wells and constructingnew piezometers during the mining operation. The monitoring should be carriedout four times in a year- pre-monsoon (April-May), monsoon (August), postmonsoon(November) and winter (January) and the data thus collected may besent regularly to Ministry of Environment and Forests and its Regional Office,Bhubaneswar, Central Ground Water Authority and Regional Director, CentralGround Water Board.(xiii) The project proponent shall obtain necessary prior permission of the competentauthorities for drawl of requisite quantity of water (surface water and groundwater) for the project.(xiv)(xv)Appropriate mitigative measures shall be taken to prevent pollution of the KaroRiver in consultation with the State Pollution Control Board.Suitable rainwater harvesting measures on long term basis shall be planned andimplemented in consultation with Regional Director, Central Ground WaterBoard.39
