Introduction:

M/s. Krishna E Campus Pvt. Ltd., #344, Nirmal RMV II Stage, II Block, 1st

Cross, RMV Extension, Bangalore – 560 094 are constructing Residential

Apartment with 91 units and Commercial (Hotel with 165 rooms). The

project has been designed in accordance with the regulatory/bylaw of BDA

and BBMP.

Statutory Approvals:

The project has been accorded with Environmental Clearance from State

Level Environment Impact Assessment Authority (SEIAA), Karnataka vide

letter No. vide letter No. SEIAA 92 CON 2011 dated 23rd December 2011

and also Consent For Establishment from Karnataka State Pollution Control

Board vide letter No. PCB/376/CNP/09/H952 dated 15th December 2011.

Objective of the report:

The objective of preparation of the report is elucidating the status of

compliance to the conditions of the Environmental Clearance letter and also

to assess the quality of environment during construction and

implementations of the project.

Basic infrastructure such as Hygienic sanitary facilities in the project site,

day to day basic requirements such as potable water supply to the

construction workers, housing with electrification, security during

construction period are provided. Apart from this Monitoring studies were

conducted to assess the quality of various environmental parameters during

the implementation of the project.

The monitoring studies included:



1. Air Environment.

2. Noise Environment.

3. Water Environment.

4. Soil Environment.

1. Air Environment:

Ambient air quality monitoring studies are conducted to know the quality of

air in the project site. The ambient air quality monitoring stations were

identified based on various environmental and other factors influencing the

air quality parameters i.e., meteorological factors.

The air pollution sources from the project are Diesel Generator sets and are

provided with suitable stack heights stipulated by KSPCB. Other air pollution

component during the construction period is mainly Suspended Particulate

Matter (SPM) which is controlled by covered construction and frequent

sprinkling of water on site and at generation. The ambient air quality

monitoring is conducted on monthly basis, and the test reports are enclosed.

The air quality at the project site is within the standards stipulated as per

the CPCB ambient air quality guidelines.

2. Noise Environment:

The noise generated from the project during construction is mainly due to

transportation, lead and lift of the construction materials and operations of

construction equipments such as tower cranes, vibrators, DG sets etc., the

noise generated during construction is temporary. However the noise is

being minimized by resorting to covered construction and providing the

Personnel Protective Equipments such as Protection gadgets to persons

working in such areas.



The Noise levels around the project site are assessed by noise monitoring

carried out using the portable noise measuring instrument. The continuous

Noise generating source of the project is mainly from Diesel Generator sets

and they are acoustically enclosed to reduce the noise. The results of the

studies carried out to know the noise levels of the ambient are well with in

the limits, a copy of the report is enclosed as annexure.

3. Water Environment:

The hygienic sanitary systems (Toilets and Bathrooms) are provided for the

personal working in the construction site.

After the construction of the project and during the operation the

wastewater will be treated to the standards stipulated by KSPCB norms for

on land disposal for gardening and toilet flushing. Ground water sample

drawn form the project site was analyzed to know the water quality. The

ground water quality analysis report is enclosed.

4. Soil Environment:

Soil sample is collected from the project site to know the contamination if

any on soil quality and the test report enclosed show that there is no change

in the quality of soil during the construction period.

The studies conducted to know the environmental quality in the project site

during construction period showed that the construction of the project has

not changed the quality of Environment in any form.
