Besidess, the existiing project of Darshan

e
manufa
acturing of bagasse based
b
partiicle board. This quan
ntity of ressin is prese
ently being
g
purchassed from market. So, the
t firm exp
periences an
n urgent ne
eed of in-ho
ouse facility to maintain
n
the dessired quality level and le
evel to redu
uce the dependence on
n market.
All the raw

materia
als are easily available indigenouss. Thus therre is no outg
go of foreign

e
Importss vs. Indigenous produ

electricity & easilyy availabilitty of raw materials
m
re

So

0.3% and of

is 0.2
2% suggestt that the arrea of Mand

S
the

of Su
urat district, while the a
area Mangrrol taluka iss 7.6% and the area off
the Kam
meraj taluka
a is 5% of th
he Surat disstrict. Thus, it also provves that the
e area of Ma

a
is greatter in Suratt city compa
ared to Man

uka. Among
g all three talukas,
t
the

conclussion the deccadal growtth of all thrree talukas is greater than

e of the pop

The pop

The

talukas, the total ssex ratio off Mandvi ta

and

e
same iss also true for the rurral areas of

of urban po

s
greater in Surat disstrict compa
ared to Gujjarat while among

taluka only Mangrol taluka

4.1 PRELUDE
P

The Environmenta

t
starts w
with identificcation & pre
ediction of im
mpacts and
d
then evvaluation an
nd communiication of th
he impacts o
on the envirronment due to the pro
oject. These
e
involve objective and subje
ective asse
essment of
o the project compo
onents, env
vironmental
attribute
es and their interrelatio
onship. Main aim of co
onducting im
mpact asse
essment is to
t establish
h
sustaina
ability of project
p
by ensuring
e
effficient mitig
gation mea
asures for identified & predicted
d
impacts
s. In doing so, environ
nmental con
nsequencess must be characterize
c
ed early in the projectt
cycle and accountted for in th
he project design with
h necessaryy mitigation
n actions & measures.
Thus, th
he objective
e of EIA is to foresee the potenttial environm
mental prob
blems that would
w
arise
e
out of a proposed developme
ent and address them
m in the pro
oject's plann
ning and de
esign stage
e
with neccessary mittigation to eliminate
e
or minimize th
he impacts.
The ma
ain procedural steps ca
an be summ
marized as fo
ollows:
¾ Iden

Thiss involves identification
n of the ma
ajor activitie
es, the enviironmental attributes, the
t impactss
of th
he activitiess on the env
vironmental attributes and
a formula
ation of ‘cau

¾ Prediction
Thiss involves prediction
p
o the nature, magnitu
of
ude and sig
gnificance o
of the impa
acts. It also
o
inclu
udes analyssis of the po
ossibilities and/or
a
probabilities of occurrences
o
s of the imp

¾ Eva
aluation
Thiss involves assessment
a
t and designation of th

the assessment matrix and
a
helps deriving

4.4 ID
DENTIFIC
CATION OF IMPA
ACTS
The ide
entification of the pote
entially significant impa
acts of the project is tthe logical first
f
step to
o
conduct an Environmental Im
mpact Assesssment stud
dy. Identifica
ation of imp
pacts involv
ves possible
e
anticipa
ation of imp
pact in term
ms of pollu
ution or stre
ess on envvironmental attributes due to the
e
identifie
ed activities. There are
e many methods for ide
entification of the impa
acts of a pro
oject, which
h
includess check listt method, network
n
me
ethod, matrix method etc.
e For the
e present sttudy impactt
identificcation has b
been done by establisshing a corrrelation bettween the id
dentified ac
ctivities and
d
environmental parrameters th
hrough an ‘Activity-Im
mpact’ mattrix. Such matrix beccomes veryy
complex & compliicated if acctivities are
e not segre
egated phasse wise an
nd considerring this, to
o
simplifyy the Activitty-Impact Matrix,
M
the identified
i
im
mpacting acctivities of tthe project have been
n
classifie
ed in two phases, ass discusse
ed earlier. W
With refere
ence to the
e identified
d impacting
g
activitie
es of the co
onstruction &commissio
oning and o
operational phases off the propossed project,
probablle impacts negative or positive on
o environm

butes have
e been repo
orted in the
e
“Activityy – Impact Matrix”. Atttempt has been mad
de to includ
de all proba
able impactts including
g
minor & major as well as positive & negative. The
e outcome of
o the studies for iden
ntification off

ent engage

activitie
es will have impacts on

Also the con

Thus, these impacts on

The En

d as the environmen
e
ntal require
ements and
d
objectivves of the project as well as th
he processe
es and pro
ocedures & it will govvern projectt
operatio
onal actionss. The envvironmental manageme
ent plan is mostly kno
own in its abbreviated
a
d
form as
s EMP. It constitutes
c
t
the
importa
ant part of a
an EIA stud
dy as the p
prime goal of
o EIA is to
o
delineate the proper mitigattion for pro
obable impacts from the projectt. Basicallyy, the EMP
P
provide
es broad guidelines to minimize th
he potential environme
ental impactts from the project and
d
to mitigate the consequences.
Adequa
ately designed EMP serves ass an essential tool & guideline
es to strengthen the
e
Environ
nmental Ma
anagement System to minimize or
o eliminate the predictted/ identified adverse
e
impacts
s during the
e impact ass
sessment study.
s
EMP also repressents the co
ommitment & efforts off
the proponent to p
protect the environmen
e
nt as well ass the neighboring population to step forward
d
with sustainable in
ndustrial de
evelopmentt concept. E
EMP must ensure effe
ective imple
ementation,
method
dology & alternatives for mitigation measures planne
ed / recomm
mended to reduce orr
eliminatte the adverse impactss likely or predicted to occur from various acttivities of th
he proposed
d
project. Hence, th
he EMP hass got high im
mportance in formulatiion of EIA sstudy report as well ass
in formu
