 About

The present report is based on the project “Development of Guidelines

for Greening of Industrial Areas in Uttarakhand under SEIP Project”.
Allotted to Engineering Services by German Development Cooperation
(GIZ).

RBased Sevices Pvt. Ltd. is the partner agency of Engineering Services

which provides the Geospatial Consultancy in the present collaboration
for the above mentioned project.

The project have the objective to develop guidelines for developing green
belt in the selected five industrial parks of Uttrakhand, namely IIR
Pantnagar, IIE Sitarganj, IIE Haridwar, IIE Kotdwar and IT Park
Dehradun. The complete study is divided into three sections first benign
the report on the existing green area in the industrial park, secondly the
report on the potential green space were plantation can be done in order
to satisfy the greenery norms or increase the green cover in the industrial
parks, thirdly the report on the guidelines to be followed in the green
areas of the industrial parks.

The present report is on the guidelines for developing green space in the
industrial parks. The guidelines are provided for section of trees,
selection of location and amount of trees that may be procured by the
individual industrial parks in order to fulfil the greenery norms.

1. Introduction
Trees are one of the most prominent constituents of our ecosystem because of their conspicuous
size and shape. Trees are important to the humanity not only economically, environmentally,
industrially but also spiritually, historically and aesthetically as they sustain human life by
providing a large number of goods such as food, fodder, fuel and services like soil and water
conservation, pollution control, climate regulation, recreation aesthetic functions etc. Trees
improve the quality of the air we breathe and play a vital role in maintaining the oxygen cycle,
which is essential for the survival of all living being. When properly grown, they act as barriers
against sun, wind, dust, noise and other pollutants. Even individual tree, if strategically planted
adjacent to a house, can provide relief from dust, noise and annoying lights at night. Trees thus
reduce stress on human beings. They also help to reduce the temperature by providing shade
and by intercepting, absorbing and reflecting solar radiation, especially in warmer places,
where there are year-round warmth and sunshine. Trees also function as natural air conditioners
by evaporating water from their leaves through the process of evapotranspiration.

Large scale urbanization and industrialization in the Himalayan region have led to the
development of severely eroded, barren and denuded areas in many parts of the state. That have
many severe impacts on our environment and ecosystem. Large urban areas with low green
cover such as dense cities and industrial areas act as heat islands. According to the United
States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA, 2020) such areas FDQ DIIHFW D FRPP
environment and quality of life in multiple ways such as:

x Increased Energy Consumption

x Elevated Emissions of Air Pollutants and Greenhouse Gases
x Compromised Human Health and Comfort
x Impaired Water Quality

It becomes a responsibility of industrial areas to take remedial action to reduce and recover
from the impact as mentioned above. One such action can be afforestation. There is an immense
scope of undertaking plantation works on community and panchayat lands, van panchayat
areas, civil and industrial areas, a roadside plantation along national and state highways and
other village roads. Afforestation has immense potential to maintain greenery to the industrial
area and thereby reducing there environmental ill-effects. Afforestation also helps to restore
the ecological balance.

In history, there are very few records of green belts. One of the important examples is of Queen
Elizabeth I of England. She had banned new buildings in a three-mile wide belt around the City
of London in 1580 [Reference: Halliday, Stephen (2004). Underground to Everywhere. Sutton
Publishing Limited. p. 118]. In very recent time, the green belt policy was pioneered in the

1|Page
United Kingdom in the 1930s. Campaign to Protect Rural England (CPRE) and various other
organizations have helped to spread awareness about Green belts in the United Kingdom.

The objective of Green belt varies from country to country and region to region. The common
objectives are to protect natural environments such as biodiversity, etc, to improve air quality
of the region, pollution control, to maintain micro climate of the region, etc. Green Belt
Development is an important tool that aims at overall improvement in the environmental
conditions of the region.

2. Uttarakhand: A Brief Profile

The Uttarakhand is comparatively a new state, which came into existence on 9th Nov, 2000 as
the 27th state of the Republic of India. It was carved out from the larger state Uttar Pradesh by
taking hill districts of Almora, Bageshwar, Chamoli, Champawat, Dehradun, Nainital, Pauri
Garhwal, Pithoragarh, Rudraprayag, Tehri Garhwal, and Uttarkashi with the districts of Udham
Singh Nagar in the Terai and Hardwar in the foothills. It lies between 28053'24" and
31027'50"N latitudes and between 77034'27" and 81002'22" longitudes. The state is
strategically located and forms part of the northern boundary of the country sharing its border
with China and Nepal. Himachal Pradesh and Haryana lie to its West and Uttar Pradesh to its
South. Blessed with the enchanting beauty of nature and for historical and mythological
regions, the state has its own uniqueness. About 64.7 % of the area is covered by forests and is
rich with numerous species of plants, animals and birds. About 93 % area is hilly and the
remaining 7 % is covered by plains. The elevation extends approximately from 300 m to over
7,000 m amsl.

3. Checklist for pre- planting, during planting and

post planting phases
3.1 Pre-planting:
x Survey of site and Identification of locations for planting.
x Location- wise selection of suitable plants, also considering other criteria such as soil,
height and crown, etc. refer Table No 2
x Identification of water source, in the surrounding area and planning for post planting
irrigation system for the plants.
x Clearing of site of unwanted material, and wild / jungle growth.
x 'HPDUFDWLRQRISODQWLQJDUHDDQGGLJJLQJ .X1 m.X1 m.) to
ensure aeration of the soil and space for healthy growth of roots to allow sufficient
aerated and porous soil area for the plant to settle down in the new place easily without
much shock. . However, in rocky areas pits have to be bigger. Trees are planted 5 to 15

2|Page
 m apart depending upon the space they are expected to occupy when mature. The pits
have to be dug 2 to 3 weeks earlier to planting, preferable before the rainy season.
x Transport and stacking of red soil, manure and pesticides.
x The excavated soil should be kept near the pit in two heaps, one containing the top soil
up to 50 cm depth and another from the lower part of the pit. Both pit and the excavated
soil should remain exposed to weathering effects for 2 to 3 weeks. All unwanted growth
of algae, fungi gets eliminated, and heat generated from the maure gets settled.)
x Peg mark the pit and leave the pit for 15 days (Fallow period).

3.2 During planting:

x Circular weeding up to two feet radius from the stem of the plant. (Refer to Fig.1)
x Internal distribution of plants on site and planting. Soil working up to 2 feet radius -6
inches deep using crow bars around the plant.
x Application of pest control items.
x Refill mix:
¾ 2:1:1:1 Ratio of dug out soil, red soil, farm yard manure, sand.
¾ Application of vermi compost or fertilisers-2kg/pit
¾ 20 grams/pit. FOLIDOL chemical for controlling white ants.
x Identification of areas requiring tree guards, getting them made and fixing tree guard.
x 6WDNLQJRUIL[LQJWKHVXSSRUWVWLFNVZLWK

Figure 1: Circular weeding Figure 2: “8” knot

x After a few showers the soil of the pit settles down making a cavity. This cavity should
be filled up with more soil and planting be done in the center of the pit. Only that much
part of the sapling will go down which was under the soil in the nursery.
x All side shoots should be removed from the seedling at the time of planting.
x Watering the plant

3|Page
3.3 Post Planting:
x Watering the plant as required.
x Protection of sapling from stray cattle is important in tree plantations so maintenance
of the tree guards is important.
x Removal and re-fixing of tree guards to facilitate soil working whenever required
depending upon the soil type where the planting is done.
x Circular weeding regularly for many times - to a radius of 2 feet around the plant. (Refer
to Fig.3)
x Application of chemicals, fertilizers/neem cake etc. regularly.
x Cutting back of coppice growth and removal of weeds in the plantation area. (Refer to
Fig.4)
x Given proper attention, the sapling will reach a height of nearly 2-3 m in the first year
itself depending on tree species and thus its crown will rise beyond the reach of the
cattle. The fence, however, should not be dismantled. It should be allowed to remain
for three years or more till the stem is thick enough to stand any damage.
x To make a plant tall and stately, proper pruning of branches should be done from early
stage of growth. Pruning of branches lower than 6 feet 6 inches. (Refer to Fig.5)
x Other such shoots that would develop afterwards from the elongated stem should be cut
away for several years till the contemplated height of the stem is reached. Pruning of
unwanted growth will help in utilization of nutrients (micro and macro) and water for
better growth of remaining parts, thereby making them strong and healthy.
x Sometime the main stem bifurcates before reaching the required height. In such case
the weaker branch should be removed; if both are of equal vigour, the one towards the
sun should be retained.
x While cutting a branch no stump should be left. The cut surface must be painted with
coal tar or a fungicide to avoid attack of diseases.

Figure 4: Weeding around stem Figure 3: Cutting coppice growth

4|Page
 Figure 5: Pruining
x Nitrogen at the rate of 20 g per plant in the form of ammonium sulphate urea or other
nitrogenous fertilizer should be applied during the first irrigation inside the basin.
x The tree should be kept free from weeds for at least two years to avoid competition and
promote growth.
x When the plant attains a height of 4 to 5 m, not much care except pruning is needed.

4. Identification of areas for plantation

Major areas for plantation in industrial areas are as follows:

4.1 Street plantation

™ 36 m. and more wide roads.
™ 24 m. wide roads
™ 18 m. wide roads
™ 12 m. wide and less roads
™ Central median

4.2 Common open spaces and amenity areas

™ Block plantation
™ Boundary plantation

4.3 Unit (individual industry) level plantation

™ Plantation at entry and exit
™ Boundary plantation
™ Incidental open spaces

4.4 Plantation in and around water bodies

5|Page
5. Guidelines for plantation in the identified areas.
5.1 Street plantation

5.1.1 Guidelines: Avenue plantation-general concerns

™ Clash between avenue trees and an overhead electric line is an omnipresent problem.
To allow proper growth of trees, and to avoid periodic pruning, either the electric supply
lines should go underground or overhead electric lines should be insulated. (eg:
Bauhinia species, lagerstroemia species)
™ Street lighting:
x Effectiveness of street lighting is reduced because of the position and height of
the street light in relation to that of the trees.
x Trees and street light positions should be staggered. On the other hand, street
lighting affects the night life of trees and ultimately effects its life cycle. In order
to restore night life to trees, preferably in residential areas, lighting can be at
low level.
™ Underground services cable, drainage and storm water systems: care should be taken in
plant species selection and planting distances from underground lines so that the root
system of plant do not clog drains and do not damage the underground infrastructure
and service lines.
™ Most of the avenue planting happens between the property line and road edge. There is
hardly any soil area left over for aeration resulting in poor development of root zone.
Trees fall down for the whirl winds effect and sudden outburst of rain and disrupt urban
life pattern
™ Possibility of providing appropriate soil area around tree shall be considered.
™ Using trees for commercial purposes like nailing of name plates, advertisement boards
etc. shall be avoided.
™ Where road side development is still to come, plan for multiple rows of trees on either
side to protect it from uprooting by sudden gush of winds and outburst of rains.
™ Except in situations where specific function is expected, trees should be planted at a
distance where only 10% of the crown is generally overlapped. (crown width should be
considered at the trees mature stage)

5.1.2 Criteria for selection of plant material for roads/avenue planting

™ Type (ever green or deciduous)
™ Growth rate and age of vegetation.
™ Physical character of the tree like form, (fastegiate form, broad canopy, spreading
canopy, etc.)

6|Page
 Figure 6: Physical form of the tree

™ Ultimate height and spread of tree,

™ Crown clearance from ground, etc
™ Flowering season, color, flower density.
™ Leaf size, leaf texture, leaf, and foliage color, foliage density and distribution.

5.1.3 Note on clearance for planting trees

For tree planting, the clearances required may be noted as::

Figure 8:Planting near electrical poles (Source: SaskPower) Figure 7: Planting near boundary walls

5.2 Open spaces plantation

5.2.1 Guidelines: Open spaces plantation -general concerns

Open space planting can happen in two categories.

™ Open space boundary planting

™ Open space block planting.

General concerns.

™ Plantation in unprotected open spaces requires fencing or tree guards.

7|Page
 ™ Boundary can have a minimum of 3 rows where possible, with height hierarchy, to
withstand strong winds.
™ Species variation can be maintained to avoid monoculture and improve resilience and
diversity.

5.2.2 Criteria for selection of plant material for open space planting
™ Preference for local and adopted species,
™ Species that have thorns like Prosopis species
™ Species that attract birds and insects, like Acacia nilotica
™ Species that have fruiting like Mangifera indica
™ Species with better sustainability can have preference.
™ Species with low visual appeal, insignificant flowering lanky form and lactation can
also be preferred for open space block planting.

8|Page
 Notes:

x Boundary Planting in the open plots is shown on side of the boundary only
anticipating the set backs of the future buildings. Selection of the boundary sides
to be planted shall be done as per site existing conditions.
x All open spaces and boundaries shall be preferably 3 rows of planting with height
hierarchy, following highest tree towards the boundary.
x The one row planting shown here can change to three row planting subject to
clarifictions about the development activities.
x 3.25% of all open spaces roofed for block planting and rest of the areas is the left
open for intended open space activities.

Figure 9: Example of block and boundary planting in open space

9|Page
5.3 Unit (individual industry) level plantation

5.3.1 Guidelines: Unit plantation -general concerns

™ Unit boundary plantation should have similar character to that of the front boundary
and inside plantations to establish homogeneity in the total unit area.
™ Plantations should be at a distance of minimum of 3m. From boundary wall and
buildings so that the roots do not damage the structures.
™ Trees that display a stark contrast to the avenue and opposite side unit planting can be
avoided.
™ On the front side of the unit boundary, trees with similar Form, growth rate, habit and
foliage density can be preferred.

5.3.2 Selection criteria unit/industry boundary

For three sides of the industrial plot excepting the front side:

™ Plants that are sturdy and having defined form to delineate the edge as a green edge.
™ That easily associate with other species of plants. like Peltophorum pterocarpum and
Cassia siamia.
™ That can survive in the pollution caused by the industry.
™ Plants that can sustain medium drought conditions and medium soil nutrient availability
(usually local species and adapted ±naturalized species.)
™ That adds to the homogeneity of green cover continuity of the industry and the total
area in totality.

5.3.3 At entry and exits-guidelines

Plants that:

™ Have very less leaf fall, Alstonia scholaris.

™ Have very strong visual effect with vibrant flowering in terms of color and flower
density,
™ Provide shade throughout the year,
™ Reduce visuals glare.
™ Provide aesthetic quality to space and intellectual stimulation that elevates human
spirits.
™ Complements the architectural forms
™ Establishes visual comfort areas.
™ Forms overhead and ground space definition.
™ Induce scale.
™ Forms a framing element, gives foreground and backdrop effect.
™ Reduce visual pollution.
™ Introduces ornamental effect.

10 | P a g e
5.4 Water body plantation

5.4.1 Guidelines: Water body -general concerns

™ Trees having character to frame views and enhance visual quality.
™ Entire shore area need not be planted considering the scenic value of the place.
™ Plant height hierarchy can be maintained keeping the smallest height plant nearer to the
shore.
™ Planting in feeder nalas and monsoon time intermittent nalas can be avoided.

5.4.2 Criteria for selection of plant material for water body planting
Following types of species can be considered for water body shore planting

™ 6SHFLHVWKDWVXUYLYHSDUWLDOVXEPHUJHQFH
™ Trees that can provide habitat for avi fauna population.
™ Trees with drooping character like weeping willow, that visually associate with water.
™ Trees with less leaf fall
™ Trees that sustain high moisture levels.
™ Trees that have characteristics of mangrove species.

9. Planting and climate change adaptation: Reducing
urban heat island effects
Areas in and around cities are generally warmer than comparable rural areas. Urban
development reduces vegetative cover and adds heat absorbing surfaces such as rooftops,
buildings, and paving. Heat is also added from other sources in cities such as fuel combustion
and air conditioning units. This result is an urban heat island.

Figure 10 Formation of heat island

One of the most fundamental methods of reducing urban heat islands effects is to increase the
tree cover. This shades the ground, pavements, roads and building surfaces, which otherwise
usually absorb the solar radiation and result in increased surface temperatures and re-radiation
of long wave heat at the pedestrian level.

The other benefit of increasing the tree cover is increased evaporative cooling. Vegetation
intercepts radiation and produces shade that also contributes to reduce urban heat trapping.
Trees and vegetation provide shade which helps lower surface temperatures. They also release
water to the air (evapotranspiration), which helps cool the area.

Figure 11 Heat island mitigation

20 | P a g e
Figure 12 Urban heat island Figure 13 Trees plantation for mitigation of heat island

10. Integration of storm water management with

plantation
a. Stormwater runoff is rainfall that flows over the ground surface. It is created when rain
falls on roads, driveways, parking lots, rooftops and other paved surfaces that do not
allow water to soak into the ground Stormwater runoff also picks up and carries with it
many different pollutants. Managing the quantity and quality of stormwater is termed,
"Stormwater Management."
b. Preserving undisturbed vegetative cover during land development is a much more cost-
effective approach than destroying these features and having to construct new
stormwater management practices to replace the functions they originally provided.
Trees and forests reduce stormwater runoff by capturing and storing rainfall in the
canopy and releasing water into the atmosphere through evapotranspiration.
c.

Figure 14 Importance of green cover in storm water management

d. In addition to this the other methods of storm water management includes:

21 | P a g e
 ™ Maximize permeability introduction of permeable hard surfaces wherever
possible
™ Minimize offsite discharge by introducing routing to local depressions, rain
water harvesting pits and areas.
™ Use storm water channels as design elements and increase infiltration by
making bio swales.

11. Indoor Plantation

11.1 What are indoor plants?
An indoor plant is one that is adapted to living in low light, usually with less water and lower
maintenance needs, and that can thrive indoors. In general, most plants that work well in an
office environment are native to tropical or subtropical parts of the world. These are places
where the climate is warm, hot or mild, the kind of climate that most of us prefer in our offices.

11.2 What makes a good office plant?

Generally speaking, plants that are low maintenance make good office plants and that includes
plants that require relatively low amounts of water.Finally, take appearance into account.
Although one want plants that are easy to take care of, one also want office plants that look
nice and enhance the office space rather than distract or detract from it. Blooming plants,
although they look great, usually require more sunlight and more watering and typically only
bloom for a short period of time when indoors.

Here are many different types of plants that make good indoor and office plants. However,
there are some that work better than others.

Some of the best and most common are in the Araceae family, such as spathiphyllum (e.g.,
Peace Lily, Snake Lily). They are also sometimes referred to as aroids.

22 | P a g e
Philodendrons ±these make great indoor/office plants because there are so many different
kinds. There are some who suggest there are more than 900 species. Philodendrons have large
and even imposing oval or spear-shaped leaves. There are two major groups of Philodendrons
±climbing (vining) and non-climbing (solitary, non-vining).

Pothos ±plants that have large green leaves. They are flowering plants and cover a wide variety
that are used indoors. Pothos are extremely successful indoors ±LW¶VDOPRVWOLNHW
to grow within the confines of the built environment.

Aglaonema (Aglos) ±large green leaves with lighter marks on them differentiate Aglaonema
from some of the other plants in this list. There are many different varieties of Aglos, including
newer varieties with pink and red colors in the stems and leaves. In some cultures, they are
known for bringing good luck.

Nephthytis ±a plant with white and green leaves that are usually arrow-shaped. These need to
be kept away from any pets or other animals, because they can be toxic.

Anthuriums ±a popular indoor and office plant because of the colorful blooms that come with
them.

Dracaena ±there are about 40 species within this genus and are closely related to another plant
on this list, the Sansevieria. Some species are large and tree-like, but some are shrub-sized and
make great office plants. Cane Dracaenas are great if you are looking for a plant with
substantial height.

Palms ±various types of palms such as the Rhapis palm and the Kentia palm are very good for
office plants if you are looking for something a little taller. They do well in medium to low
light, but they are not really low maintenance, so be aware of that.

Ficus trees ±if you are really looking to add something taller to your indoor space then
consider one of several types of Ficus. Most Ficus trees require medium to high light.

Sansevieria ±a genus of flowering plants that are native to Africa. They tend to have long,
tall, green leaves around a central growing point. They usually produce flowers of varying
colors from greenish-white, lilac-red or brown. Sansevieria tolerates some of the lowest light
conditions.

Succulents ±plants with thick, fleshy, leaves that allow them to retain a lot of water. They tend
to need plenty of light, so be wary of that, but these plants are famous for being drought-
resistant. Avoid over-watering succulents.

Ferns ±a type of plant that you are probably very familiar with. They do well indoors in low
light, but they do require consistent moisture and humidity levels in order to thrive.

ZZ Plants ±a green flowering plant originally from Africa that has now been cultivated for
indoor and decorative use. It gets its common name from the scientific name: Zamioculcas

23 | P a g e
zamiifolia. ZZ Plant is a relatively newer ornamental plant and will likely increase in popularity
over time.

For plants that are relatively low maintenance, you would do well to consider plants in the aroid
family such as:

x Sansevieria
x Aglaonema
x Pothos
x Dracaena
x Philodendrons
x Zamioculcas zamiifolia (or more commonly, ZZ Plants)

Plants good for windows in office are:

x Spathiphyllum (such as Peace Lilies)

x Pothos
x Philodendrons
x Sansevieria
x Aglaonema
x ZZ Plant

There are many plants that can be used outdoors and repel pests like mosquitoes such as:

x Lemongrass
x Eucalyptus
x Catnip
x Citronella grass

11.3 Benefits of office plants:

11.3.1 Improve office air quality

Studies have shown that indoor plants can clean the air, which is especially advantageous in an
office environment where people spend a great deal of time. Carpets and paint and other things
that we use indoors do carry chemicals and plants can absorb them and produce fresh, clean,
oxygen. The issue is that the more you have, the better the air. If you put one plant in the middle
RI\RXURIILFHGRQ¶WH[SHFWWKHDLUTXDOLW\ Dracaenas,
palms, ficus, ferns, etc., all help raise humidity levels and help with air quality standards

11.3.2. Plants improve people’s moods

There is a growing field of interior design, biophilia that involves bringing nature into indoor
VSDFHVVRWKDWSHRSOH¶VPRRGVFUHDWLYLW\DQ
about biophilia here. The amount of plants in an office or enclosed space matters. One plant

24 | P a g e
alone is likely not enough to improve moods, but a lot of them can have an effect. Plants make
buildings look less drab or dreary and more sophisticated plant displays can look a lot like
artwork, which has a definite elevating impact on mood.

11.3.3 Plants improve productivity and creativity

Yes, office plants have been known to improve productivity. Studies have been done that show
that employees with access to indoor plants perform better and are more productive. One way
to look at how moods and productivity are improved with a scenic view is to consider how
hotels charge for rooms. If you book a room in Manhattan, you are likely to pay a lot more for
a room with a view of Central Park than one with a view of an alley. People feel better, work
better and perform better when they can see greenery, nature, get natural light and have access
to plants.

11.3.4 Plants improve office spaces?

Although there are studies that show access to outdoor views and views of nature improve
moods, productivity, creativity and overall health, the fact is that offices cannot provide a
window view for every employee. Fortunately, these same studies show that access to plants
in an office has much of the same effect.

There are other benefits, too. These days very few people have individual offices. Instead, they
have cubicles, which reduces the amount of privacy that employees have and increases the
noise level. Plants can reduce noise and help provide a bit more privacy, all while improving
the overall appearance and look of cubicles and offices. They add color and pizzazz to
otherwise dry, plain spaces.

11.3.5 Do plants reduce absenteeism?

It appears that they do. Although studies are still ongoing, there is evidence of phenomenon
VXFKDV³VLFN -buildLQJV\QGURPH´ZKHUHSHRSOHUHSRUWEH
building. Fortunately, this can be improved with the addition of indoor plants and other interior
landscaping techniques. Recent studies look into a new concept in the workplace known as
³SUHVHQWHHLVP´ZKHUHHPSOR\HHVVKRZXSIRUW
DQGOHDYH7KH\VKRZXSHYHQZKHQVLFNEHFD
for being there, but do nothing to contribute to the company. Providing access to natural light
and adding plants to offices takes steps to reduce this.

11.3.6 Which plants offer the best health benefits?

Having any kind of plants in the office can improve moods and provide some health benefits.
Flowering and blooming plants can offer an even greater mood lift than those that do not.
Anything that can break up lots of brown or plain white or gray that often adorn walls, floors
and rooms in modern office buildings can help encourage wellness.

12. Tree Procurement
12.1 Overview
The geospatial study was done for the mapping of the existing and potential sites for the green
area for the selected industrial parks. The total potential green area identified for each of the
park is the area which requires the tree plantation in coming days. The total number of trees
required by each park as per the type of the industrial park is also estimated considering the
greenery guidelines. The geospatial techniques used in the estimation of the total count of trees
required for plantation in which following criteria is considered -

12.1.1 Road Side and Road-Divide/Road-Median

For Road Side and road-median/divide, the trees are planted linearly and the distance
considered between two trees is 3m. The total length of the road side and road-divide/median
is calculated and based upon the length and the buffer distance between trees the count is
estimated.

Figure 16 Road side plantation Figure 17 Road divide plantation

12.1.2 Industrial premises between 1 to 6 Ha

For Road Side and road-median/divide, the trees are planted linearly and the distance
considered between two trees is 3m. The total length of the road side and road-divide/median
is calculated and based upon the length and the buffer distance between trees the count is
estimated.

26 | P a g e
 Figure 18 Proposed tree plantation in industrial premises between 1 to 6 Ha

12.1.3 Open Spaces

For open spaces, the trees are planted 5m apart. The distance between any two trees is 5m. The
square grids are formed considering the tree is planted at its center. The total grids lying in the
potential space is counted and is considered as the total number of the trees required.

Figure 19 Proposed tree plantation in open space

12.1.4 Industrial premises greater than 6 Ha

For open spaces, the trees are planted 5m apart. The distance between any two trees is 5m. The
square grids are formed considering the tree is planted at its center. The total grids lying in the
potential space is counted and is considered as the total number of the trees required.

27 | P a g e
 Figure 20 Proposed tree plantation in industrial premises greater than 6 Ha

Note:
It should be noted that in the present study as the plantation inside the industrial premise is
completely considered as potential green space, while in reality this area may be having
plantation done already.

12.2 Industries wise tree procurement recommendation:

12.2.1 IIE Pantnagar:

IIE Pantnagar requires a total of 48,027 trees to be procured. If industrial premises potential
green space is not considered then at least 14,339 trees are required to completely develop the
potential green space as per the greenery norms. The analysis showed that to just fulfill the
greenery norms of IIE Pantnagar that is 15% area of the industrial park must come under the
greenery norms. The authority has to procure at least 10% of the total trees required to be
required as per this report. Considering the safety factor of 1.5 times, as all the saplings may
not grow. The authority must procure 15% of the total trees which is 7200 trees. The table
below shows the exact statistics of the number of trees required in the IIE Pantnagar according
to different types of potential green space available in it.

Total 48,027

12.2.2 IIE Sitarganj:

IIE Sitarganj requires a total of 67,416 trees to be procured. If industrial premises potential
green space is not considered then at least 21,281 trees are required to completely develop the
potential green space as per the greenery norms. The analysis showed that to just fulfill the
greenery norms of IIE Sitarganj that 15% area of the industrial park must come under the
greenery norms. The authority has to procure at least 40% of the total trees required to be
required as per this report. Considering the safety factor of 1.5 times, as all the saplings may
not grow. The authority must procure 60% of the total trees which is 40,500 trees. Hence the
authority can first acquire the 21,281 trees required to develop potential green space other than
which lie in the industrial premises. Further the need to rest 19219 trees depends upon the
availability of trees inside the industrial premises. If already this requirement can be reduced.
The table below shows the exact statistics of the number of trees required in the IIE Sitarganj
according to different types of potential green space available in it.

12.2.3 IIE Kotdwar:

IIE Kotdwar which requires 10% of the industrial park area to be developed as a green belt is
having around 22% of the area as green cover. That satisfies the greenery norms for the
industrial park. But as explained in the existing greenery report the area is still under
development phase it requires to be properly developed and maintained as per the greenery
standards. The recommendations in the reports of the existing and potential green area must be
followed. As per the current analysis all the open area is having dense vegetation but is mostly
naturally grown. Hence for this analysis we consider such space as existing green space. But
to enhance the vegetation according to the norms the IIE Kotdwar needs 1,385 trees to be
procured. Whose details are given as under.
