to be 13.50 KL per day and for constru ction purposes w ould be about 20 KL
per da y. Further, by using of ready mi x concrete (RM C) & curing agent s, the
w ater w ill be reduced substantiall y. The major part of the construction w ater
requirement w ill be full y consumed. The sew age generati on from labourers
during construction period w ould be about 10.80 KL / day and this quantity
of domestic w aste w ould be disposed through a mobile STP to be provided
at the labour colony. The treat ed sew age w ill be used for meeting the
landscape requirement. The non bio -degradable w aste, the empt y cement
bags, other packaging materials etc. w ould be disposed to the vendors. The
bio-degradable solid w aste from the labour colony w ill be disposed through
bio-bin facilit y.
1.8. W ill the low lying areas & wetlands get altered? ( Provide details of how low lying

Ans. Not applicable.
1.9. W hether construction debr is & waste during construction cause health hazar d?
(Give quantities of var ious t ypes of wastes generated during construction
including the construction labour and the means of disposal)
Ans. The constructi on w aste consists of earth, debris concrete, lumber, masonry
and cardboards w hich are about 35%, 15%, 12% and 10% respecti vel y.
Construction w aste w ould be disposed for backfilling purposes. The bio degradable food w aste from the construction labourers w ill be disposed in a
bio-bin s ystem for microbial compost ing from the labour colon y. The non biodegradable w aste w ill be stored and sold to the vendors. The packaging
material like cement bags etc. w ould also be sold to the vendors.

State the sources & quantities and f urnish a water balance st atement.
Ans. The det ails are provided below : The w ater requirement duri ng construction phase is for construction
purposes and for the domestic w ater requirements of the construction
w orkers. The const ruction w ater requirement is expect ed to be 20 KL/ day
and for domestic purposes is estimated to be 13.50 KL/da y. The w ater

The project has made provision for rain w ater storage tanks w ill be for the
concurrent use as source of w ater during rainy days & non -rainy da ys. The
source of w ater for the project w ill be Kerala Water Authorit y, w ell w ater &
stored rain w ater through tanks / ponds during non-rai ny days and hence the

The Water Bal ance Chart (rai ny days & non -rain y days) is attached. The acti vit y
w ise population & dail y w ater consumption details of the project are attached at
Annexure 1 & 2 respecti vel y.
2.2. W hat is the capacit y (dependable f low or yield) of the proposed source of water?
Ans. Duri ng const ruction phase, the source is from the KW A, w ell w ater &
recycled w ater from STP & rain w ater storage t anks. With the estimated
construction phase w ater r equirement of about 33. 50 KL/ day ( 20 KLD + 13.50
KLD) extending for a period of about 36 months, this source is dependable.
The source of w ater for the proposed project during operation phase w ill be
w ater from the proposed Rain w ater collection tanks w ithin the site of for
meeting the w ater requirement for non -flushing ( during rainy da ys). Also, it
proposed to const ruct STP for t he t reatment of domestic sew age. During
non-rain y da ys, the source of w ater is from stored rain w ater & for w ell w ater
for meeting the non -flushing w ater requirement. The treat ed w ater from STP
w ould meet the w ater requirement for flushing, boiler requirement &
horticulture requirements. Therefore by these sources and by an int egrated
w ater management approach, a dependable source of w ater is ensured.
2.3. W hat is the qualit y of water required, in case, the supply is not f rom a municipal
source? (Provide physical, chemical, biological char acteristics wit h class of water
qualit y)
Ans. The source of w ater for the proposed project w ill be from stored rain w at er
during rainy days & non -rainy da ys for non -flushing purposes & treat ed
sew age for meeting the flushing w ater requirement. It is proposed t o have
Sew age Treatment Plant ( STP) for treatment of domestic sew age. Al so, it is
proposed to have WTP for filtrati on, disinfection & pH adjustment of rain
w ater before its use. The w ater qualit y of t he w ell w ater existing at the
project site is collected and anal yzed t hrough an accredit ed laboratory . It is
observed that t he anal yzed values ph ysical, chemical parameter s of the w ell

proposed activit y? ( Give details of the quantities and composit ion of wastewater
generated f rom the proposed activit y)
Ans. There w ould be no incremental pollution load from w astew ater generated

outside the project site. Therefore, minimal impact envisage outside the site.
2.7. Give details of the water requirements m et f rom water har vesting? Fur nish details
of the f acilities creat ed.
Ans. The ground w ater tabl e is high in the area and hence recharging of

problems of f looding or water logging in any way?
Ans. As per t he soil investigation report, soil quality is sandy cla y w ith
vegetation, dense w hite medium sand & dense fine sand in nature. Due to
these factors, the percolation to the ground before the site development i s
very poor. Further, it is proposed to have rain w ater storage tanks/ponds.
The excess runoff from the site w ill be properl y cha nneli zed to the ext ernal
drain and w ill be discharged onl y af ter de -siltation & oil removal to the
drain. Due t o these measures, there w ould not be any incremental l oad and

2.9. W hat are the impact s of the proposal on the ground water? ( W ill there be tapping
of ground water; give the details of ground water table, recharging capacit y, and
approvals obtained from competent authorit y, if any)
Ans. The ground w ater table is high in the area and hence recharging of
rainw ater through infiltration pit is not possible. Rainw ater harvesting is
done through storage of roof rain w ater for w hich tanks w ill be constructed.
The source of w ater for the proposed project w ill be w ater from Rain w ater
storage tanks / ponds fo r meeting the w ater requirement during rainy da ys concurrent use and stored for non -rainy days and open w ell at site for
meeting the w ater requirement for non -flushing acti viti es and hence the
availabilit y of w ater is ensured and due to the reasons mention ed above, the
dependency on ground w ater w ill be minimal. Further, t here is provi sion of
use of ground w ater during non -rainy days and failure of public suppl y for
the domestic (non -f lushing) requirement. The project proposes to use w ater
from large diamet er open w ell to be constructed w ithin the premises as an
alternate source of w ater .

w ill be discharged onl y after de -siltation & oil removal to the dra in. The
contour map show ing the natural drai nage pattern w ithin the site is provided
w ith the application. The surface runoff w ill be properl y channelized to the
external drain after de -silting and oil removal.
Sand, gravel & other loose constructi on mate rials during rainy days w ill be
kept in a covered or secured place so as to prevent the carrying of these
through surface run -off. Proper & regular housekeeping of the construction
site speciall y duri ng rain y da ys & these area t o be free of all litters like

ENVI RONMENTAL MONITORI NG PL AN
The envir onmental monitor ing programmed is a vital process in the management Plan
f or any construct ion project. This helps in signaling the pot ential problems that would
result f rom the proposed project and will allow f or prompt im plementation of eff ective
corrective measures. The environmental monitoring will be required during
construct ion and operational phases.
Water Qualit y and Public Health
Since water cont aminat ion leads to var ious water r elated diseases, the project
author ities shall est ablish a procedure f or water qualit y sur veillance and ensure saf e
water f or the consumers. A detailed epidem iological study related to wa ter borne
diseases shall be carried out and the data shall be complied f or ever y year in the
project area. This data would help the authorit y in f inding out the trends f or incidence
of water related diseases prevalent in the area, which would help them to take
suitable remedial measures f or reducing or er adicat ing the occurrence of these
diseases in f uture.
W ater qualit y param eters shall be monit ored bef ore and af ter the completion of the
project. Monitoring shall be carr ied out on quarterly basis to cover seasonal
var iat ions. W ater qualit y shall be analyzed by applying the standard techniques. The
parameters recommended f or monitor ing are as f ollows :
pH
Total Dissolved Solids
Total Suspended Solids
Total Alkalinit y
Temperature
Total Hardness
Calcium
