Annexure 1(d): Waste Management
CONSTRUCTION PHASE:
1. SOLID WASTE GENERATION
Construction waste is generated during construction works. It mainly consists of
earth, stones, bricks, inert and non-biodegradable material such as concrete, plaster, metal,
wood, plastics etc& small quantity of domestic solid waste. The retrievable items such as
bricks, wood, metals are recycled; the domestic waste will be segregated and will not be
allowed to mix with construction waste. The construction earth and other wastes will be
used for landscaping within the site premises.
2. DOMESTIC SEWAGE
The domestic sewage generated is about 2.4 KLD during construction; which will be
collected in collection tank & will be lifted to BWSSB sewage treatment plant for further
treatment.
OPERATION PHASE:
1. SOLID WASTE GENERATION
The solid wastes generated during the operation phase can be categorized under
three groups:
Wet Garbage like Food waste, Lawn mowing wastes etc.
Dry Garbage such as Paper, Plastic, Bottles, E-waste, etc.
Sludge from Sewage Treatment Plant (STP)
Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) has sponsored a survey to ascertain the
status of municipal solid waste disposal in metro cities, Class-I cities and Class-II towns of
India. As per the survey, the per capita generation of solid waste was found to vary from
0.019 kg/day to 0.747 kg/person/day. A nominal value estimated for Bengaluru is 0.25
kg/person/day and the same has been considered to estimate the quantity of domestic
solid waste generated due to this proposed project.

WATER DEMAND DURING CONSTRUCTION
Water for construction will be sourced from external tanker water suppliers. Table-
2a.1 shows details of the water requirement during construction period.
The water used for construction gets consumed into chemical reactions with cement
and also partly gets evaporated. Hence, there will be no wastewater generation from curing
or mixing processes. However, there will be discharge of domestic wastewater to the tune
of 2.4KLD. The domestic wastewater is proposed to be collected in collection tank &will be
lifted to BWSSB Sewage Treatment Plant for further treatment.

Annexure – A2: Rainwater Harvesting Facilities
As the growth of Bengaluru city is far ahead of the rate at which the water supply
system is being upgraded, it becomes necessary to think of alternative sources of water for
the daily needs for secondary purposes such as washing, gardening etc. In these lines, rain
water harvesting is gaining importance and has been a part of building by-laws.
As the project location is blessed with fairly good rainfall, it is planned to collect the
storm water at different gradients of the location. There will be rainfall runoff from
building roof-tops, roads and pavements and greenbelt area. Necessary provision will be
made to collect the quantity of rainfall runoff during the most rainy day of the season.
Necessary Deep Recharge Wells have been envisaged. The facilities to be established for
rainwater harvesting include carriage (piping) system, pre-treatment unit (filtration) and a
storage tank.

Design details:
Rational formula for calculating runoff = Q= (CIA) / 360
3
Q = Runoff in m /sec
I = Intensity of rainfall in mm/hr.
A= Drainage area in hectares.
C = Co – efficient of run off as below
Intensity of rain fall = 90 mm/ hr
Runoff Coefficients:
Roof top : 0.95
Landscape/Garden : 0.25
Drive Way : 0.75
Terrace Area Run-off:
I = Intensity of rainfall : 90 mm/hr
A = Drainage area in hectares : 0.2705
C = Co – efficient of runoff : 0.95
3
Q = Runoff = (CIA)/360= (0.95X90X0.2705)/360= 0. 064m / sec
Data assumed:
Considering 15 min of rainfall
= 0.064X 15 X 60 = 58 cum
Roof rain water collection sump of capacity 60 cum will be provided and same will be used.

45
Total Run-off: Driveway:
I = Intensity of rainfall : 90 mm /hr
A = Drainage area in hectares : 0.1823
C = Co – efficient of runoff : 0.75
3
Q = Runoff = (CIA)/360 = (0.75X 90 X 0.1823)/360= 0.034m /sec
Total Run-off: Garden Area:
I = Intensity of rainfall : 90 mm /hr
A = Drainage area in hectares : 0.3008
C = Co – efficient of runoff : 0.25
3
Q = Runoff = (CIA)/360 = (0.25 X 90 X 0.3008/360= 0.018m /sec
3
Therefore the total runoff from the site is: 0.034+0.018= 0.052 m /sec
Data assumed:
Considering 15 min of rainfall
= 0.052X 15 X 60 = 46.8 cum
Therefore the total runoff from the site is: 47 cum
Recharge Pits:
The no. of recharge pits for the given project is calculated as below
No. of recharge pits = 10nos.

Annexure10: ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN
10.1 INTRODUCTION
The Environmental Management Plan (EMP) is aimed at mitigating the possible
adverse impact of a project and ensuring the existing environmental quality. The EMP
converse all aspects of planning, construction and operation of the project relevant to
environment. It is essential to implement the EMP right from the planning stage continuing
throughout the construction and operation stage. Therefore the main purpose of the
Environmental Management Plan (EMP) is to identify the project specific activities that
would have to be considered for significant adverse impacts and the mitigation measures
required.
The construction phase impacts are mostly short term, restricted to the plot area
and not envisaged on a larger scale. In the operational phase, the environmental impacts
are due to continuous operation of the project; hence, the emphasis in the Environment
Management Plan (EMP) is to minimize such impacts. The following mitigation measures
are recommended in order to synchronize the economic development of the project area
with the environmental protection of the region.
The emphasis on the EMP development is on the following:
 Incorporating Green Building concept from Design to Implementation stage.
 Mitigation measures for each of the activities causing environmental impact.
 Monitoring plans for checking activities and environmental parameters and
monitoring responsibilities.
 Roles, responsibilities and resource allocation for monitoring; and
 Implementation of the Scheduled plan.

Environmental Management Plan has been discussed in the following sections


separately for Construction phase and Operational phase:

10.2 EMP DURING CONSTRUCTION PHASE


During Construction phase, the activities which need to be monitored and managed
from the point of pollution are explained in detail in the subsequent sections.

10.3.1 AIR QUALITY MANAGEMENT


The air pollutants likely to be emanated from the proposed project are SPM, SO2,
NO2, HC and CO mainly due to burning of liquid fuel (HSD) in DG.
Exhaust from the DG set will be emitted through stacks of adequate height for
dispersion of gaseous pollutants. The green belt development is also proposed covering
about 15.15% of the plot area. Following table presents the EMP for air quality
management during operation phase.

DG set  Equipment selected will ensure the exhaust emission
standards as prescribed as per the latest amendments
from the CPCB.
 DG will be used as a stand-by unit.
 Periodic check-up and maintenance will be ensured.
Ambient air quality  Ambient air quality monitoring will be done as per the
prescribed norms at regular intervals.

10.3.2 WATER QUALITY MANAGEMENT


Water requirement of the project will be met through BWSSB, as mentioned earlier.
Water balance is presented earlier section.

53
The sewage generated from the proposed project is about 180 KLD which will be
treated in the proposed STP of capacity 180 KLD. The treatment scheme for domestic
effluents generated from project has also been discussed in earlier section. Treated water
will be reused for HVAC, for flushing and for gardening. Following table presents the EMP
for water quality.

Table 10.5: Water Quality Management during Operation Phase

Environmental impacts Mitigation


Effluent from domestic water  Treated with proposed state-of-the-art sewage
consumption treatment plant to produce tertiary treated water this
is ultimately reused for secondary purposes such as
for flushing and for gardening.
 Water conservation measures will be encouraged.

10.3.3 NOISE MANAGEMENT


High noise generating units such as DG sets will be provided with acoustic
enclosures. Landscape on the project boundary will further act as noise barrier and helps
in attenuation of noise. Following table presents the EMP for noise levels.
Table 10.6: Noise Management during Operation Phase

Noise from DG  Acoustic enclosures will be provided to DG sets.
area  DG set will be installed in an area (utility section) where
the access will be restricted.
 Use of PPEs (ear plugs) will be made mandatory in this
area.
 Selection of equipment to ensure residual noise level of
<65 dB (A).
 Noise levels will be checked periodically using a noise
dosimeter.

10.3.4 SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT


The solid wastes generated during the operation phase can be categorized under
three types:

54
Wet Garbage: Food waste, Lawn mowing wastes etc
Dry Garbage : Paper, Plastic, Bottles, etc. &
Sludge from Sewage Treatment Plant (STP)
The solid waste generated in the premises is estimated to be about 1,050 kg/day.
Out of 1,050 kg, 630 kg is biodegradable waste & 420 kg is inorganic wastes. Further the
biodegradable wastes will be segregated and will be processed in an Organic Waste
Converter and the inorganic wastes such as plastic materials, glass & metal wastes will be
handed over to the BBMP authorized waste recyclers.
The sludge from the STP is estimated to be about 18 kg/day and will be used as
manure for gardening purpose after taking it through filter press.
The various mitigation measures to be adopted during collection and disposal of
wastes are as follows:
 It is preferable that the container and bins used for collection of waste should be of
closed type so that the waste is not exposed and thus the possibility of spreading of
disease through flies and mosquitoes will be minimized.
 Collection system should be properly supervised so that quick and regular removal
of waste from the dustbin is practiced.
 The biodegradable wastes will be processed in an Organic Waste Converter and
non-biodegradable wastes such as plastic materials, glass & metal wastes are
handed over to the BBMP authorized waste recyclers; E-Wastes & Hazardous waste
will be collected separately & it will be handed over to KSPCB authorized waste
recyclers for further processing.

10.3.5LANDSCAPE DEVELOPMENT
Vegetation is the natural extension of the soil ecosystem on a site. It can provide
summer shade, wind protection, and a low-maintenance landscape that is adapted to the
local environment. Unfortunately, the common practice is to remove the existing landscape
cover and replacing it with a generic, water and maintenance-intensive lawn.

Following approach will be adopted for vegetation and ground management.


It is planned to include an ecologically knowledgeable landscape architect as an
integral member of the design team.

55
Preservation of existing vegetation, especially native plants, will possibly be
incorporated. Fencing of property will be avoided wherever possible to make landscape
available to community thereby increasing the project integration.
 Decrease paving and monoculture lawns.
 Avoid replacing mature trees with young seedlings.
 Protect existing plants during construction. Delineate the “drip line” around trees
and demark or fence off areas to avoid damage.
 Contain heavy equipment and stockpiling areas to pre-defined areas.
 Design new plantings as diverse communities of species adapt well to the site. Plant
native species of varying ages. Select vegetation that attracts wildlife.
 Avoid invasive species and monocultures (same species, same age).

10.3.6 STORM WATER MANAGEMENT


As the project location is blessed with fairly good rainfall, it is planned to collect the
storm water at different gradients of the location. There will be rainfall runoff from
building roof-tops, roads and pavements and landscape area. Necessary provision will be
made to collect the quantity of rainfall runoff during the most rainy day of the season.
Necessary recharge pits within the site have been envisaged. A garland drains with RCC
precast perforated cover will be provided around the periphery of property. The details of
the rain water harvesting facilities are interpreted in the earlier section.

10.3.7HEALTH, RISK AND DISASTER MANAGEMENT


Public health and safety
Since all the construction related activities shall be confined to the project site,
minimal health related impacts are envisaged within the project influenced area during the
construction stage.
At the project site on an average of 100 persons will be engaged, who face direct
exposure to dust and noise generated from the construction activity. This is likely to cause
health related effects such as asthma, bronchitis etc. and hearing impairments respectively.
To minimize these anticipated impacts, the following suitable actions are taken:
 Use of water sprinklers to prevent dust from being air borne.
 Providing suitable Personal Protective Equipments (PPEs) like mouth mask with
filters, nose mask, helmets, goggles etc.
56
 Arranging periodic health check-up camps for the labourers.
 Provision of safety belts.
 Facility of an onsite medical treatment and transport in case of injury.
 Employing a safety engineer.
Due to operation of the proposed project, there will be enhancement in public health
and safety due to:
 Regular visit of the resident medical officer to take care of the first aid and
primary medication in case of emergency for employees and labourers.
 Availability of First aid kit with primary medicines in the medical center.
 Display of action plan and preparedness measures during emergency situations.

Risk and Disaster Management Plan


Disaster is an unexpected event due sudden failure of the system, external threats,
internal disturbances, earth quakes, fire and accidents. Thus an appropriate
management plan shall be incorporated.
Precautions
 Once the likelihood of a disaster is suspected, preventive actions should be
undertaken by the project in-charge.
 Conditional maintenance of equipments, materials, and expertise for use during
emergency.
 The electrical systems shall be provided with automatic circuit breakers
activated by over current.
 Fire extinguishers are provided at pre-notified locations inside the buildings.
 Proper escape routes are planned and displayed in the public domain.
 Selected representatives are given proper training to guide other inhabitants
during fire accidents.
 Periodic awareness programme and mock drills are conducted for the
employees on their roles during emergency situations.

Important telephone numbers such as of police authorities; fire department and


hospitals etc. are made available for use during emergency situations.

3.4 SBR TECHNOLOGY

The Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR) process is a sequential


suspended growth (activated sludge) process in which all major steps
occur in the same tank in sequential order. There are two major
classifications of SBRs: the intermittent flow (IF) or “true batch
reactor”, which employees all the steps and the continuous flow (CF)
system, which does not follow these steps. Both have been used
successfully worldwide installations. SBRs can be designed and
operated to enhance removal of nitrogen, phosphorus, and ammonia,
in addition to removing TSS and BOD5 .The intermittent flow SBR
accepts influent only at specified intervals and, in general, follows the
five-step sequence. There are usually two IF units in parallel. Because
this system is closed to influent flow during the treatment cycle, two
units may be operated in parallel, with one unit open for intake while
the other runs through the remainder of the cycles. In the continuous
inflow SBR, influent flows continuously during all phases of the
treatment cycle. To reduce short circuiting, a partition is normally
added to the tank to separate the turbulent aeration zone from the
quiescent area.

CONCLUSIONS:
The Sewage treatment plant is designed based on the Sequential Batch
Reactor (SBR) process a sequential suspended growth (activated sludge)
process in which all major steps occur in the same tank in sequential
order. The STP would be able to treat the sewage to the standards
prescribed by the KSPCB with treated BOD5 levels less than 10 Mg/l.
The treated water can be used for the tertiary uses like Gardening, Floor
washing, Toilet flushing, HVAC purposes etc. The treated water is safe
for drinking purpose as it is passed through UV sterilizer.

The water and wastewater management adopted by the developers would


be one of the best in the interest of protecting the environment and in
saving the natural resources.
