PLAN
Construction camp is the location in which the contractor will have camp office,
residential colony, workshop, Laboratory, casting yard, steel yard, Plants and
Machineries for the proposed Road work of NH- 9.
There are two constructions camp one near the Dalaj 2 Plot No. 530 at Ch. 110 and
another near the Indapur.
The site will be free from cultivation and in non-agricultural land.
The construction camp will have:
Offices and Residences
Plants and Machineries
Workshop
Laboratory Vehicle Parking.
The layout of the construction camp is designed in such a way that there will be a
reasonable distance between the offices, residences and Plant area.
The land for the construction camp will be on leased basis and the mutually agreed
amount will be paid to the landowners as per the terms and condition applied and will
be properly documented.
The layout plan prepared for the construction camp will be submitted for approval to
the local approving authority. On receiving the approval from the local body the
construction site will be mobilized.
The site clearance will be the first step and the trees if any existing in the site will be
taken care and will be left as it is and in case any removal is to be done will be
compensated by planting the additional trees at the boundary or at the selected
location in the camp site. Gardening will be done at residential and at site office.

Topsoil if any will be removed only in the construction area and will be utilized in the
lawn development in the campsite.
Fencing all around the campsite will be done with check post provision in the
entrance there by restricting the camp area as restricted area for the local public.
The barbed fencing
Domestic Use:
For the domestic usage of water in the office and residential colony the bore well will be
driven and the water will be tested for its quality. Upon receiving the good quality of bore
water the same will be utilized for the above proposed purpose by providing over head
tanks for water storage and necessary pipe lines for delivery.
Drinking water will be tested seasonally by assuring that there are no physical, chemical
and biological contaminants.
If required suitable treatment will be done for bore water if the raw water is not potable
upon receiving the water test report.
Plant Area:
Water is required for the dust suppression system in Crushers, processing Wet Mix Plant
and Batching Plant.

PLAN
Water in the existing open well if any will be utilized for this that too upon conducting
water quality test.
Septic tank of adequate capacity will be provided separately for office and residential
colony. Raw sewage will be treated in these tanks. The treated sewage from this septic
tank will flow into soak pits there by underground strata disposal practice. The soak pits
and septic tanks will be away from the bore well so that no contamination will cause to
sources of water.
Wastewater from canteen will be collected and treated separately. Treated wastewater
and the bathroom waste will be collected in a sump and will be use for green belt
development and gardening.
Since Laboratory proposed in camp site is for material testing the waste water will be of
only container washings which will have only little bit of non hazardous solids. This will
be settled in the grit chamber provided and the clear water will be absorbed to the waste
water sump. There will no Chemical effluent generation from Laboratory.

PLAN
A layout showing the borrow area with respect to the project area will be prepared.
The borrow area will be identified and will be taken on lease. It may be any government
land or of landowner. The following points will be taken in to consideration while
selecting the borrow area.
Whether the land is high or flat
Distance from the main road
Existing stream or water source.
High lands are highly suitable for the borrow area. On cutting the land will be brought to
the adjacent ground level. If the land is flat the soil can be excavated up to a maximum
depth of 1.5m below ground level. The slopes will be trimmed and no vertical cuts will
be left in the borrow area in order to avoid landslides and soil erosion. In all cases the
limits of borrow areas will be clearly demarcated. The dry lands alone will be used as
borrow area. The material from the trial pit of the borrow area will be tested and its
suitability with necessary approvals will be obtained.
The Excavators, JCB, Wheel loaders and tippers are the main machineries used in the
borrow areas. All this machineries will be maintained adequately fitted with silencers to
reduce noise levels. The machineries will checked for emission and will be kept within
the limits. Periodical checkups and maintenance will be done. The topsoil will be

removed and stocked for reuse before the material excavation. Borrow areas are located
far away to the residential areas.
Location of Borrow Area:
A layout showing borrow areas with respect to the project area will be prepared. Also a
detailed borrow areas management and rehabilitation (if required) plan will be prepared.

Ambient Air Monitorini'
We shall undertake environmental monitoring in term of Ambient Air Monitoring for the
determination of suspended particulate matter. The air quality monitoring procedure shall
be establish to monitor the impact on air quality and measures to control air pollution
including dust suppression of activities that will cause degradation in air quality,
environmental procedures to manage pollutants, monitoring programme, record keeping
and reporting.
The main pollutants, which will come out from different road construction activities,
would be Suspended Particulate Matter (SPM), Noise pollution from different earth
moving equipments and generator sets.
The ambient air quality will be monitored once in a month and the level of pollutants in
the air will be checked. The emission from the genset and the Hot Mix Plant will also be
monitored once in a month and level will be checked and improvements if any required
will be done. All the vehicles used in the project will be tested for emission and the HR
and CPE departments will maintain the certificate of fitness.
Third party will do all the emission testing and the copies of the results will be
maintained in the HR Dept. The schedule of maintenance of plants, equipments and
machineries will be drafted in consultation with the technical person in charge and the
schedule will be adhered. The CPE Dept. will do periodical review of the maintenance
works completed, once in three month. If any deviation observed, root cause will be
identified and the required remedial measures will be taken.

Mitigation Measures
Transport of material from one place to another creates air pollution, which degrades the
atmosphere of the area. To minimize pollution precaution are taken to minimize visible
particulate matter from being deposited upon roadways. It includes removal of particulate
matter from equipment and cleaning of dust / mud and deposit of material on public place
by routine sweeping work everyday.
Control requirement at road construction site:
The dumping material shall be place in a manner that will minimize dust production.
Material shall be stabilized by watering or other accepted dust suppression techniques.
The height from which material dropped shall be the minimum practical height to limit
the fugitive dust emission. Stock piled, sand and aggregates use in concrete
manufacturing and construction work should be piled with suitable slopes and if required
it will be enclosed on three sides with suitable barricading. Cement will be stored
separately in cement godown. Provide water sprinklers that are required to control and
suppress dust during handling of excavation, debris and or during demolition. During dry
weather, dust control methods must be use daily especially on windy, dry days to prevent
any dust from blowing.
Monitoring of SPM:
The impacts of fugitive dust as ambient air pollution depends on quantity generated as
well as drift potential of dust particles injected into atmosphere. Larger particles will
settle down but smaller particles will drift away. SPM levels will be monitored to check
dust impact during construction phase.
Methodology:
The samples will be collected with the help of High Volume Dust Sampler using standard
methods on pre weighted GFA filter paper at a rate of 1:1 m3/minute for 24 hours and
SPM will be monitored by suitable placement of High Volume Sampler at various
required locations at the site. Air monitoring shall be carried out monthly at each
location.

The noise monitoring and control plan shall contain the sources of noise pollution at the
construction site. It also contains the mitigation measures to be taken.
Noise Control
Mitikation Measures
To the extent required meeting the noise limits adequate efforts will be taken to reduce
the construction noise emissions level.
Scheduling the Tipper, Truck and Earth Moving Equipments for loading,
unloading and hauling operations so as to minimize noise impact on surrounding.
Locating stationery equipments as to minimize noise impact on the community.
Put off Plants and Equipments when not in use or idle.
Use only well maintained plants and Equipments, which should be serviced
regularly. Maintain equipments such that parts of vehicles and load are secure
against vibration and rattling.
Silencers and mufflers on construction equipment shall be properly fitted and
maintained.
Maximize physical isolation between noise generators and noise receptors.
Grading of surfaced irregularities on construction sites to prevent the generation
of impact noise and ground vibration by passing vehicles.
Schedule work to avoid simultaneous activities that both generate high noise
level.
Construction of temporary physical barriers.
Monitoring
Noise level will be measured at various locations with calibrated Noise meter at different
times during the operation of equipments used for construction of the project. Noise
monitoring and control plan, results submitted will include duration of measurement
distance of monitoring from activity and construction equipment working during
monitoring period.
