(v)(vi)(vii)The top soil, if any, shall temporarily be stored at earmarked site(s) only and itshould not be kept unutilized for a period more than 3years. The topsoil shall beused for land reclamation and plantation.The over burden (OB) generated during the mining operation shall be stacked atearmarked dump site(s) only and it should not be kept active..3/-for long period of time. There shall be three external over burden dumps at theend of the mine life. Proper terracing of OB dumps shall be carried out so that theoverall slope shall not exceed 28 0 . The over burden dumps shall be scientificallyvegetated with suitable native species to prevent erosion and surface run off. Incritical areas, use of geo textiles shall be undertaken for stabilization of thedumps. Monitoring and management of rehabilitated areas shall continue until thevegetation becomes self-sustaining. Compliance status should 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), mineral and OB dumps to prevent run off of water and flow ofsediments directly into the Baitarni river and other water bodies. The water socollected should be utilized for watering the mine area, roads, green beltdevelopment etc. The drains should be regularly desilted particularly aftermonsoon and maintained properly.Garland drains, settling tanks and check dams of appropriate size, gradientand length shall be constructed both around the mine pit(s) and over burdendump(s) to prevent run off of water and flow of sediments directly into theBaitarni river and other water bodies and sump capacity should be designedkeeping 50% safety margin over and above peak sudden rainfall (based on 50years data) and maximum discharge in the area adjoining the mine site. Sumpcapacity should also provide adequate retention period to allow proper settling ofsilt material. Sedimentation pits should be constructed at the corners of thegarland drains and desilted at regular intervals.(viii) Dimension of the retaining wall at the toe of over burden dumps and over burdenbenches within the mine to check run-off and siltation shall be based on the rainfall data.(ix)(x)Plantation shall be raised in an area of 44.295ha including a 7.5m wide green beltin the safety zone around the mining lease, quarry benches, over burden dumps,roads etc. by planting the native species in consultation with the localDFO/Agriculture Department. The density of the trees should be around 2500plants per ha.Regular water sprinkling shall be carried out in critical areas prone to air pollutionand having high levels of SPM and RPM such as around crushing and screening46
(xi)(xii)plant, loading and unloading point and transfer points. Extensive water sprinklingshould be carried out on haul roads. It shall be ensured that the Ambient AirQuality parameters conform to the norms prescribed by the Central PollutionControl Board in this regard...4/-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 OfficeBhubaneswar, 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)(xvi)Suitable rainwater harvesting measures on long term basis shall be planned andimplemented in consultation with Regional Director, Central Ground WaterBoard.Appropriate mitigative measures shall be taken to prevent pollution of theBaitarni River in consultation with the State Pollution Control Board.Minerals handling plant shall be provided with adequate number of highefficiency dust extraction system. Loading and unloading areas including all thetransfer points should also have efficient dust control arrangements. These shallbe properly maintained and operated.(xvii) Vehicular emissions shall be kept under control and regularly monitored.Measures shall be taken for maintenance of vehicles used in mining operationsand in transportation of mineral. The mineral transportation shall be carried outthrough covered trucks only and the vehicles carrying the mineral shall not beoverloaded.(xviii) Blasting operation shall be carried out only during the daytime. Controlledblasting shall be practiced. The mitigative measures for control of groundvibrations and to arrest fly rocks and boulders should be implemented.(xix)Drills shall either be operated with dust extractors or equipped with waterinjection system.47
