Chief sources of noise pollution in the mine will be vehicle. Based on LOI practice, in Directorate General of Mines Safety circular no.-158 (Tech.) of 1975, noise standards have been recommended. According to this, there is a warning limit value of 85 db (A) by which the danger of hearing impairment and deafness may result from unprotected ear. Personnel protective equipment have to be used if there are single isolated out bursts of noise which can go above 130tb (A) impulse or 120 db (A). Noise from trucks can be reduced by using mufflers of adequate size and strength and better maintenance of the equipments. Noise will not be the problem as the mining has been proposed by semi-mechanized open cast method. 18.0(D) (vi) MANAGEMENT OF GROUND VIBRATIONS:- The only source of ground vibrations is due to blasting operations. Based on the ground vibration studies made earlier proper care will be taken during blasting operations. 18.0(D) (vii) MAT.IAGEMENT OF LAND SLIDE PROBLEM:The final pit slope is kept at not steeper than 45" which is not likely to cause any problem in respect of slope stability. Thus there is no likelihood of any land slide at any stage in future. 18.0(D) (viii) MANAGEMENT oF HUMAN SETTLEMENT PROBLEM:The mining activity will be confined to remote area away from villages. No population will be affected by such mining activities. As such the question of rehabilitation of the people displaced by mining operations does not arise. 18.0(D) (ix) MANAGEMENT OF WILD LIFE HABITATE:No specific management is proposed because there is no wildlife, sanctuary etc. within the study area. 18.0(D) (x) MANAGEMENT oF FLORA:Existing flora will be improved by plantation of trees. 18.0(D) (xi) MANAGEMENT OF TOP OVERBURDEN:Top overburden will be stored in the non used zone and sold out as per market demand. 37 I t tll] lr //:\ .r 18.0(D) (xii) MANAGEMENT OF CROPPING PATTERN:No management is specifically being proposed because of no apparent adverse impact on cropping pattern due to mining. 18.0(D) (xiii) MANAGEMENT OF PLACES OF TOURIST-INTEREST ETG.:Since there is no place of tourist interest in the area, therefore no management has been proposed. 18.0(D) (xiv) WATER GOURSES, SPRINGS ETC. MANAGEMENT THEREOF:N.A. 18.0(D) (xv) MANAGEMENT OF SOCIO-ECONOMIC PROBLEMS:Therq will be positive impact on socio-economic conditions of the area due to mining.

Ground water table is not going to be touched, hence there will also be no impact on ground water. Ground water quality: -The proposed mining activity for next five year will reached up to 70 mRL. It is expected that mining will not intersect the water table in the area. Therefore, its quality will remain unchanged. No ground water management is required. 4.3 Air Quality management Mining operation are of small scale so air pollution due to dust will be negligible' Wet drilling have been proposed to minimize the dust. Water sprinklers were proposed on haul road once in a day especially during dry seasons. 4.4 Waste management Sr. no.-11 c. 4.5 Top Soil Management Sr. no.-11 c. 4.6 Tailing Dam Management: There is no proposal of beneficiation for processing of mineral as it is used directly in crude form, so no affluent will generated. Therefore no tailing dam is required. 4.7 Infrastructure Sr. no.- 2. 4.8 Disposal of Mining Machinery Sr. no.- 10 b 42 4.9 SafetY & SecuritY to surface opening excavations will be taken as safety measures implemented to prevent access method adopted' so only some part of the area per mines Act 1952, This is a small-scale open cast will be taken for that proposed area only' The will be the working zone.

APPLICANT KMP INDUSTRIES Vill-Ambalapara , Taluk-Ottapalam, Dist-Palakkad Kerala-679512 PREPARED BY: MANTEC CONSULTANTS PVT. LTD. NEW DELHI ENVIRONMENT DIVISION: D-36, SECTOR-6, NOIDA, U.P.-201301 EMP FOR GRANITE BUILDING STONE MINING PROJECT (2.0792 HA) AT VILLAGEAMBALAPARA-1, TEHSIL-OTTAPALAM, DISTRICT-PALAKKAD, STATE-KERALA ENVIRONMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN 1.0 INTRODUCTION The environmental management has been integrated into the process of mine planning so that ecological balance of the area is maintained and adverse effects are minimized. The Environmental Management Plan (EMP) consists of a set of mitigation measures and management control strategies to minimize adverse environmental impacts, as well as monitoring programme to ensure effectiveness of these measures. In order to minimize impacts of mining on different environmental parameters and to keep air and water quality within prescribed limits, an EMP has been prepared which is to be implemented in the project and covers the following phases of the project: Land Environment Water Environment Air Environment Noise Environment Biological Environment Socio-economic environment The environment management plan has been developed with a view to bring down the levels of impacts during proposed mining activities. In each of the areas of impact, measures have been taken to reduce potentially significant adverse impacts and where these are beneficial in nature, such impacts are to be enhanced/augmented so that the overall adverse impacts are reduced to as low level as possible. Measures to be taken for each of the impact areas are detailed below. 1.1 Land Environment Deviation from planned mining procedure can lead to pits, degradation of land, causing loss of properties and degradation surrounding of landscape. Present land use pattern of the lease area is waste land and at the conceptual stage the land use pattern will be changed as it will be utilized for plantation. Table 1: Land Use Pattern Mantec Consultants Pvt. Ltd.

The ultimate pit will be utilized as water reservoir. Garland drain will be provided around the lease area to maintain natural drainage pattern of the area. Retaining walls od adequate height and width will be constructed around temporary storage yards for top soil and overburden. 1.2 Water Environment During the operational phase of mine no mine waste water or industrial effluent will be generated. Management The environmental management for water pollution control includes: Water requirements for drinking, plantation and dust suppression will be met by tanker supply. Mantec Consultants Pvt. Ltd. Page 3 EMP FOR GRANITE BUILDING STONE MINING PROJECT (2.0792 HA) AT VILLAGEAMBALAPARA-1, TEHSIL-OTTAPALAM, DISTRICT-PALAKKAD, STATE-KERALA Local people will be employed and no permanent housing is proposed. Sewage from toilets shall be treated in septic tank followed by disposal in soak pits. Garland drain will be constructed all around the lease area to ensure that that the existing pre-mining drainage conditions will be maintained to the extent possible so that run off distribution is not affected. Garland drains shall be constructed on all sides of the external dumps for top soil and overburden. The garland drains shall be routed through adequately sized settling pits to remove suspended solids from flowing into storm water. The size of the settling pits shall be based on silt loading, slope, and detention time required. Retaining walls with weep holes shall be built all around the external dumps for top soil and overburden. The surface run-off from the dumps shall pass through weep holes to the garland drains The rain water falling within the lease area will be pumped out and utilized for plantation and spraying on haul roads. The settling pits and the drains shall be desilted before commencement of the monsoon season. Monitoring of surface and ground water quality will be conducted at least once in a year to evaluate the performance of the mitigation measures. 1.3 AIR POLLUTION CONTROL MEASURES The sources of air pollution during the course of mine operation are as follows. Dust generated during drilling, Dust and fumes from blasting Dust generating during loading and handling of mineral Dust from top soil and overburden stacks Dust from haul roads during material transportation Fumes from mining machines and transport vehicles Management The environmental management for air pollution control includes: Mantec Consultants Pvt. Ltd. Page 4 EMP FOR GRANITE BUILDING STONE MINING PROJECT (2.0792 HA) AT VILLAGEAMBALAPARA-1, TEHSIL-OTTAPALAM, DISTRICT-PALAKKAD, STATE-KERALA Dust generation from drilling operation shall be minimized by adopting wet drilling technology. While drilling, the drill operator shall be equipped with closed cabin personal protection gear to minimize the risk of occupational hazard. Dust and vapour generation from blasting operation shall be minimzed by adopting improved blasting technology, controlled blasting, and water sprinkling before blasting. Water should be sprinkled on paved and unpaved roads shall be done periodically, at least once a day, to minimize dust generation during transportation.. Over loading of transport vehicles shall be avoided to prevent spillage. Transportation of minerals should be done in covered vehicles to prevent fugitive dust emission. Regular checking and maintenance of mining machines and transport vehicles should be conducted. The transport vehicles must be “pollution Under control” certified. Plantation will be taken up along the approach roads and vicinity of mine lease to arrests generated dust. 1.4 Noise Environment The sources of noise & vibration in the proposed project are as follows: Drilling & blasting operations Rock breaking Scrapping and loading of mineral Transportation of minerals. Management The environmental management for noise pollution control includes: Planned preventive maintenance of mining machines will be carried out every month, which will help in reducing generation of noise and vibration during operations. Mantec Consultants Pvt. Ltd. Page 5 EMP FOR GRANITE BUILDING STONE MINING PROJECT (2.0792 HA) AT VILLAGEAMBALAPARA-1, TEHSIL-OTTAPALAM, DISTRICT-PALAKKAD, STATE-KERALA Planned preventive maintenance of transport vehicles shall be conducted once in every two month to reduce noise and vibration. Wet drilling technique shall be used to reduce noise and vibration. Noise and vibration from blasting shall be reduced by adopting proper blast hole drilling pattern (blast geometry) with appropriate burden distance, spacing as holes, hole size, hole depth, and stemming height, and powder factor. Significant reduction in fly rock, noise and vibration generation shall be achieved by adopting short delay blasting technique through use of short delay detonators allowing in-hole as well as surface delay and bottom initiation of blasted rock, A blasting siren and warning notice boards should be used for public warning as safety measures. Periodical monitoring of noise will be done to adopt corrective actions wherever needed. Plantation will be taken up along the approach roads and vicinity of mine lease. The plantation minimizes propagation of noise and also arrests dust. 1.5 Biological Environment The mining activity will have insignificant affect on the existing flora and fauna, as the flora present there is present all around. Data have been collected from various Government Departments such as forests, agriculture, fisheries, animal husbandry and various offices to establish the pre-project biological environmental conditions. It was found that the Granite (Building Stone) mining activity will not have any significant impact on the biological environment of the region. Mine lease is a revenue land with common herbs and shrubs. These herbs may get cleared due to the proposed project. Management There is a requirement to establish a stable ecosystem with both ecological and economic returns. Minimization of soil erosion and dust pollution enhances the beauty of the core and the buffer zone. To achieve this it is planned to increase plantation activities. The basic objectives of plantations are as follows: Improvement of Soil quality Mantec Consultants Pvt. Ltd. Page 6 EMP FOR GRANITE BUILDING STONE MINING PROJECT (2.0792 HA) AT VILLAGEAMBALAPARA-1, TEHSIL-OTTAPALAM, DISTRICT-PALAKKAD, STATE-KERALA Quick vegetative cover to check soil erosion Improvement in river bank stability Conservation of biological diversity Provide forage and browse for wild life 1190 saplings will be planted in 1.1893 ha area, along lease boundary and dump yard. Post plantation care will be taken for the survival of plants. 1.6 Socio-Economic Environment This project operation will provide livelihood to the poorest section of the society. The overall impact of Granite (Building Stone) mining on the social economics of the area shall be a very positive one, as not only it will generate employment opportunities for local population at mine site but also in associated activities for transportation of mined material etc. It will also give a good boost to the general economy of the area. Management During mining, employment will be given to locals and after mining; land will be utilized for plantation purpose which will provide aesthetic beauty surrounding lease area and nearby area. About 16 persons shall be employed for direct employment, whereas more than some other people as indirect considering and local villagers are to be benefited directly or indirectly by the project. Sanitation, drinking & medical facilities will be provided to the mine workers and nearby needy people through CSR activities of the project proponent. 2.0 ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM The proponent shall follow the standard methods for six monthly monitoring various environmental parameters i.e. Air, Water, Noise and Soil through accredited laboratory and submit the compliance report as per EC conditions.
