(i)
Those which can significantly alter the landscape, land use pattern and
lead to concentration of working and service population; The Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) should be prepared on the basis of the existing background pollution levels vis-à-vis contributions of pollutants from the proposed plant. The EIA should address some of the basic factors listed below: (a)
Meteorology and air quality Ambient levels of pollutants such as sulphur
dioxide, oxides of nitrogen, carbonmonoxide, suspended particulate
matters, should be determined at the centre and at 3 other locations on a
radius of 10 km with 120 degrees angle between stations. Additional
contribution of pollutants at the locations are required to be predicted
after taking into account the emission rates of the pollutants from the
stacks of the proposed plant, under different meteorological conditions
prevailing in the area. Preparation of environmental management plan is required for formulation, implementation and monitoring and of environmental protection measures during and after commissioning of projects. The plans should indicate the details as to how various measures have been or proposed to be taken including cost components as may be required. Cost of measures for environmental safeguards should be treated as an integral component of the project costs and environmental aspects should be taken into account at various stages of the projects: (a)
Conceptualization: preliminary environmental assessment. |
