emission is expected. The same can be mitigated through proper dust control measures such as

sprinkling water along the areas where vehicular traffic and earth moving equipment will be

active. Impacts to air quality from emission of exhaust gases from vehicles and equipment

could be minimized by turning of the engines instead of keeping them in idle mode. The impact

20

of emissions from on site vehicles and equipment is expected to low compared to that

caused by the emissions from vehicular traffic.

Water quality impacts are not expected as it is proposed to meet the domestic water supply

demand from the existing NTADCL / TWAD line shall be examined, to ensure continuous water

supply. Best practice for storm water management will be followed and the storm water drain

systems will be developed which will drain excess storm water into the nearby drainage system.

Wastewater generated by the project will be treated in sewage treatment plant and treated water

reused for gardening.

The contractor will take all necessary actions to ensure health and safety of construction workers.

Storm Water Drainage System & Estimated Cost

(a) Design Considerations

Designing of the storm water disposal system would be a key design aspect of the proposed

Park. Considering the topographic features and the levels at the site with the corresponding

off-site drainage network, a network of storm water drains parallel to the proposed road

network has been planned to drain the storm water

(b) Design Parameters

The following factors are taken into consideration for planning of the storm water drainage

system:

(i) The pattern of natural slope of the site, its extent and direction

(ii) Strom water drained towards the ponds, thus natural drainage system in the

downstream area

(iii) The road network system envisaged and level of the roads

37

(iv) The rain fall run off from plots/units, and other covered areas into catch basin

connected to branch drain laid along the road adjacent property line. The branch drain

carries the water into lateral, which in turn carries it to the trunk drain

(v) The rainwater from open spaces and from isolated places, flow over the ground

following the natural slope and get into the nearest drain through the vertical grating

(vi) As a camber of 2.5% on the pavement is provided, the runoff from the ROW shall

flow towards the drains provided at either side of road

(vii) For design of storm water drainage system for the park, following design parameters

are considered:

(AA) Rainfall Intensity: 35mm / hr for a return period of 2 years

(BB) Runoff factor: 60% runoff factor from the total area

(CC) Minimum gradient: 1 in 300

(DD) Minimum velocity: 0.6 m /sec

(c) Proposed Drainage System

(i) The network shall be designed to drain away the runoff from the plots and the roads

would comprise of open rectangular RCC drains with PCC floor

(ii) The storm water flow will finally drain into a lead off storm water drainage system

connected to the road system

Annexure VII

Calculation of Stack Height Diesel Generator Capacity 82.5 KVA -1 No

The minimum height of stack to be provided with each generator set can be worked

out by using the following formula:

H = h+0.2 x KVA

Where, H = Total height of stack in meter

h = Height of the building in meters where the generator set is installed

KVA = Total generator capacity of the DG set in KVA.

= 9.114 + 0.2 x 82.5

= 10.9304

Required Height of Stack =10.93 m, Hence Unit will provide 11 m height stack.

FIRE PROTECTION MEASURES

This is a brief description of a number of fire protection measures, which will be used in building.

1) Fire Alarm Systems

The purpose of a fire alarm system is to alert all the occupants of the building that an emergency of fire

exists so that such occupants may put into practice the measures required by the Fire Safety Plan. All fire

alarm systems shall be maintained in full operation condition at all times. There are two main types of fire

alarm systems namely, single-stage systems and two-stage systems.

A) A single-stage system sounds a general alarm throughout the facility that may require total evacuation of

the building. Operation of the fire alarm is activated by a manual pull station, heat detector, smoke detector

or a sprinkler head.

B) A two-stage fire alarm system is designed to allow staff to investigate and take appropriate action and

may require evacuation of the fire affected area. The general alarm or second signal is reserved as a clear

indication for complete evacuation of the building where this proves necessary.

2) Exits

An exit is that part of a means of egress that leads from the floor area it serves to a public thoroughfare or to

an approved open space. Walls, floors, doors or other means provide a protected path necessary for

occupants to proceed with reasonable safety to a place of refuge. Vertical shafts accessed from above or

below grade are protected from the remainder of the building provided the doors leading to the shaft are kept

closed.

3) Fire Department Access

Fire Department access allows fire fighters and their equipment to gain access to the building. Vehicles

parked in the fire route, excessive vegetation, snow and other forms of obstructions to access routes, fire

hydrants and fire department connections are not

permitted by the Fire Code. Maintaining fire department access is an ongoing matter, in addition, access into

a building requires consideration (ie. with a key box, through preplanning, etc.).

4) Portable Extinguishers

Portable extinguishers are intended as a first-aid measure to cope with fires of limited size. The basic types

of fires are Class A, B and C. Portable extinguishers are rated for the corresponding classes of fire.

5) Standpipe and Hose Systems

A standpipe system is an arrangement of piping, valves and hose outlets installed in a building or structure

in such a manner that water can be discharged through a hose and nozzle for extinguishment of fire. The

system is connected to a water supply, which permits an adequate supply of water to the hose outlets.

6) Automatic Sprinkler Systems

An automatic sprinkler system is a series of underground and overhead piping designed in accordance with

the fire protection engineering standards. The system is connected to a water supply such as a storage tank

or municipal water supply. The system includes a controlling valve, a series of sprinkler heads and a device

for actuating an alarm when the system is in operation. The system is usually activated by heat from a fire

and discharges water over the fire area.

43

7) Water Supply

The total water supplies required for firefighting purposes may be supplied from various sources such as a

municipal water supply, storage tanks (elevated or underground), lakes, rivers, wells, swimming pools or a

combination of sources, and should be obtained within practical distances. Water supplies must be

accessible to firefighting equipment.

8) Fire Pumps

Fire pumps are used to ensure that the water required for fire fighting and automatic sprinkler and standpipe

and hose systems is available.

9) Emergency Power

Emergency power is required to ensure the continued operation of fire and life safety equipment and systems

in case of loss of normal power.

10) Emergency Lighting

Emergency lighting ensures that exits, corridors and principal routes providing access to exits are

illuminated in the event of loss of power.

Evacuation System

Successful and efficient evacuation depends on complete preplanning, organization, and supervision.

Planning includes these basic principles:

1. Building evacuation organization;

2. Evacuation policy and plans;

3. Detection and reporting (of fire or hazard);

4. Evacuation program coordination (of movement and evacuation);

5. Communication to direct movement and evacuation;

6. Inspection and evaluation.

Building evacuation and fire safety program

Written plan _ As soon as building occupancy begins, a written plan of fire and other emergency procedures

should be agreed upon by building management and responsible representatives of each building tenant.

The emergency evacuation plan should include:

1. An outline of the emergency evacuation organization plan and agreed-upon priorities, including

responsibilities and authorities. Building and tenant representatives should agree upon these.

2. Detection, emergency warning systems, and reporting procedures for fire and other hazards should be

provided.

3. Coordination of central building emergency evacuation control with assigned floor emergency evacuation

teams should provide for the orderly movement of persons. Pre-planning and “fire in progress” chain-of-

command instructions should be detailed, and each tenant should be required to acknowledge and comply.

4. In addition to a suitable and effective fire-detection system (automatic)

5. Building management and tenants should cooperate in an education and training program for all

emergency floor-evacuation teams, employees, and building visitors. This should include a system of

personal instruction for all building inhabitants and proper posting of instructions, placards, and evacuation

diagrams at strategic locations on every floor. Emergency fire procedure information should be prominently

posted in corridors.

44

6. One individual will be designated to establish a program, including proper documentation for regular

inspections and follow-up to maintain the detection and communication system in the best operating

condition.

7. An evacuation drill program will be established that will include periodic practice of movement of

occupants to refuge areas.

Annexure XIII

FIRST AID FACILITY PROVIDED

THE EMERGENCY CONTACT NUMBERS HAVE BEEN DISPLAYED AS “Notice” in all prominent

Risk Assessment

Risk analysis involves the identification and assessment of risks the persons involved in the

proposed project and the neighboring populations are exposed to as a result of hazard

occurrence. This requires a thorough knowledge of failure probability, credible accident

scenario, vulnerability of population etc. Much of this information is difficult to get or

generate. Consequently, the risk analysis is often confined to maximum credible accident

studies.

In the sections below, the identification of various hazards, probable risks in the proposed

project, maximum credible accident analysis and consequences analysis, which give a broad

identification of risks involved, are addressed. Based on the risk estimation for fuel storage,

a Disaster Management Plan (DMP) has been presented.

Approach to the study

Risk involves the occurrence or potential occurrence of some accidents consisting of an

event or sequence of events. The risk assessment study covers the following:

Identification of potential hazard areas;

Identification of representative failure cases;

Visualization of the resulting scenarios in terms of fire (thermal radiation) and

explosion;

Assessment of the overall damage potential of the identified hazardous events and

the impact zones from the accidental scenarios;

Assessment of the overall suitability of the site from hazard minimization and

disaster mitigation points of view;

Furnishing specific recommendations on the minimization of the worst accident

possibilities; and

Preparation of broad Disaster Management Plan (DMP), On-site and Off-site

Emergency Plan, which includes Occupational and Health Safety Plan.

Hazard Identification

Identification of hazards in the proposed project is of primary significance in the analysis,

quantification and cost effective control of accidents involving HSD. A classical definition of

hazard states that hazard is in fact the characteristic that presents potential for an accident.

Hence, the components of the proposed project need to be thoroughly examined to assess

their potential for initiating or propagating an unplanned event/sequence of events, which

can be termed as an accident. The following two methods for hazard identification have

been employed in the study:

Identification of major hazardous units based on Manufacture, Storage and Import

of Hazardous Chemical Rules, 1989 of Government of India (GOI rules, 1989); and

Identification of hazardous units and storage units in IT/ITES SEZ based on relative

ranking technique, Fire Explosion and Toxicity Index (FE&TI)

Identification of major hazardous units

Hazardous substances may be classified into three main classes such as flammable

substances and unstable substances and toxic substances. The ratings for a large number of

Visualization of MCA scenarios

Maximum Credible Accident

A Maximum Credible Accident (MCA) can be characterized, as an accident with a maximum

damage potential, which is still believed to be only a probable one.

MCA analysis does not include qualification of the probability of occurrence of an accident.

Moreover, since it is not possible to indicate exactly a level of probability that is still believed

to be credible, the selection of MCA is somewhat arbitrary. In practice, the selection of

accident scenarios representative for a MCA- Analysis is done on the basis of engineering

judgment and expertise in the field of risk analysis studies, especially accident analysis.

In this study, HSD storage which is believed to cause highest level of risk for the

surroundings in terms of damage and the affected distances has been studied. For this

selection, the following factors have been taken into consideration:

Type of compound like flammable;

Quantity of HSD present in the proposed project site; and

Storage conditions such as temperature, pressure and flow.

In addition to the above factors, the location of HSD storage tanks with reference to the

adjacent activities is taken into consideration for identifying the potential escalation of an

accident. This phenomenon is known as the domino effect. Accident scenarios are

established and effect and damage calculations are carried out for Maximum Credible

Accident Analysis Studies.

Methodology

Following aspects have been studied for visualization of MCA scenarios:

Flammable characteristics of HSD;

Identification of accident scenarios;

Analysis of past accidents taken place in similar conditions to establish credibility to

identified scenarios; and

Short-listing of MCA scenarios.

Common causes of accidents

Based on the analysis of past accident information, common causes of accidents are

identified as:

Proper housekeeping;

Improper use of tools, equipments, facilities;

Unsafe or defective equipment facilities;

Lack of proper procedure;

Failure to follow prescribed procedures;

Jobs not understood

Lack of awareness of involved hazards;

Lack of guides and safety devices; and

Lack of protective equipment and clothing.

Failures of human systems

Major causes of human failures reported are due to:

Stress induced by poor equipment design, unfavorable environmental conditions,

fatigue, etc;

Lack of training in safety and loss prevention;

Indecision in critical situations; and

Inexperienced staff being employed in hazardous situations.

Often, human errors are not analyzed while accidents reporting and accident reports only

provide information about equipment and/or component failures. Hence, a great deal of

uncertainty surrounds analysis of failure of human systems and consequent damages.

Short listing of MCA scenarios

Based on the storage quantities and properties of the HSD, the hazard Identification has

been done and given as follows for carrying out MCA analysis studies.

Pool fire due to rupture, leakage and accumulation;

Toxic dispersion due to gas/ vapour leaks pool evaporation; and

General fire hazards.

Conclusion

Results of FE&TI analysis show that the storage of HSD falls into light category of fire and

explosion index with zero toxicity index.

Hazard assessment and evaluation

Introduction

An assessment of the conceptual design is conducted for the purpose of identifying and

examining hazards related to feed stock materials, major process components, utility and

support systems, environmental factors, proposed operations, facilities and safeguards.

Methodology

An assessment of the conceptual design is conducted for the purpose of identifying and

examining hazards related to feed stock materials, major process components, utility and

support systems, environmental factors, proposed operations, facilities and safeguards.

Preliminary Hazard Analysis (PHA)

A preliminary hazard analysis is carried out initially to identify the major hazards associated

with storages in the proposed project. This is followed by consequence analysis to quantify

these hazards. No major hazards with potential for any emergency situation exist in the

project site.

The other hazards related to the storage areas are given in table 3 and preliminary hazard

analysis for the proposed project is given in table 4

Maximum Credible Accident Analysis (MCAA)

Hazardous substances may be released as a result of failures or catastrophes causing

possible damage to the surrounding area.

It is intended to give an insight into how the physical effects resulting from the release of

hazardous substances can be calculated by means of models and how vulnerability models

can be used to translate the physical effects in terms of injuries and damage to exposed

population and environment. A disastrous situation may arise due to outcome of fire,

explosion or toxic hazards in addition to other natural causes, which eventually lead to loss

of life, property and ecological imbalance.

Major hazards posed by flammable storage can be identified taking recourse to MCA

analysis. Depending upon the effective hazardous attributed and their impact on the event,

the maximum effect on the surrounding environment and the respective damage caused

can be assessed. The MCA analysis involves ordering and ranking if various sections in

terms of potential vulnerability. Inventory analysis and fire, explosion and toxicity index

(FE&TI) are the two techniques employed for hazard identification process in this study.

The results of consequence analysis are useful for getting information about all known and

unknown effects that are of importance when some failure scenario occurs in the proposed

project and also to get information as how to deal with the possible catastrophic events. It

also gives the residents in the project and people living in the vicinity of the area, an

understanding of their personal situation.

Damage criteria

The storage of HSD and unloading at the storage facility may lead to fire and explosion

hazards. The damage criteria due to accidental release of any hydrocarbon arise from fire

and explosion. The vapors of these fuels are not toxic and hence no effects of toxicity are

expected.

Tank fire will occur if the radiation intensity is high on the peripheral surface of the tank

leading to increase in internal tank pressure. Pool fire will occur when fuel collected in the

dyke due to leakage gets ignited.

Fire Damage

A flammable liquid in a pool will burn with a large turbulent diffusion flame. This

releases heat based on the heat of combustion and the burning rate of the liquid. A

part of the heat is radiated while the rest is convicted away by rising hot air and

combustion products. The radiations can heat the contents of a nearby storage or

process unit to above its ignition temperature and thus result in a spread of fire. The

radiations can also cause severe burns or fatalities of workers or fire fighters located

within a certain distance. Hence, It will be important to know beforehand the

damage potential of a flammable liquid pool likely to be created due to leakage or

catastrophic failure of a storage vessels and decide the type of protective clothing

the workers/ firefighters need, the duration of time for which they can be in the

zone, the fir extinguishing measures needed and the protection methods needed for

the nearby storage/ process vessels. The damage effects on people and equipment

due to thermal radiation intensity are presented in table 5 and table 6 respectively.

Scenarios considered for MCA analysis

Fuel storage

HSD is the only fuel used in the proposed project. It is used for DG set operation only

during power failure from the grid. A maximum quantity of 2 X 20 KL will be stored in

drums. In case the fuel is released while area catching fire, a steady state fire will be

occurred.

Modeling scenarios

Based on the consumption of HSD the Pool Fire failure scenario will be resulted in the mall

multiplex and accordingly the MCA analysis has been done.

Methodology adopted for modeling

It is anticipated that in the proposed project, the peak level of radiation intensity will not

occur suddenly. Based on the past experience in similar, it is found that 20-30 minutes time

will be required before a tank fire grows to full size. The assumptions for calculations are:

It is not continuous exposure;

It is assumed that no fire detection and mitigation measures are initiated;

There is not enough time available for warning the public and initiating emergency

action;

Secondary fire at public road and building is not likely to happen;

The effect of smoke on reduction of source radiation intensity has not been

considered; therefore hazard distances calculated tend to be conservative; and

Shielding effect of intervening trees or other structures has not been considered. No

lethality is expected from this level of intensity although burn injury takes place

depending on time of exposure.

Based on the above assumptions, the HSD storage with full tank storage

capacity has been considered for pool fires and the MCA analysis has been done.

Model computations- Pool Fire

The MCA analysis has been based on the distances and probable damages depending on the

damage criteria. Computations have been done for radiation intensity levels of 37.5, 25, 19,

12.5 and 4.5 kW/m2 as presented in table 7

Table 7- Occurrence of various radiation intensities- pool fire

37.5 25.9 19.0 12.5 4.5

HSD 2 x 20 KL 15.7 19.7 23.1 29.3 52.5

The maximum quantity of storage of HSD will be 2 X 20-KL. The most credible failure is the

rupture of the pipe connecting the storage tank. For assessing the worst-case scenario, it is

assumed that the entire content of HSD leaks out into the area forming a pool and may

catch fire due to ignition from any source.

As the HSD tanks will be located only nearer to utility block of the project, even in case of

pool fire scenario, the fire will be confined to the utility block area only and will not spread

to other blocks, where the maximum number of personnel will be stationed.

Recommended approach to combat with possible accidents

Considering all possible accident scenarios as analyzed in the risk analysis, it is established

that there will not be any major potential hazards in the projects causing major damages

inside and outside the boundary. In spite of this, the project authorities should be well

prepared to handle any such eventuality as described below:

In case of explosion:

The following measures and actions are to be taken:

Evacuate the area in vicinity;

Take all necessary actions to avoid escalation of the accident;

If problem appears to be out of control, call fire brigade and police. Report to district

collector, etc.; and

Provide first aid to the victims as suggested in the Material Safety Data sheets.

Spillage due to storage tank rupture or tanker failure

This accident scenario has considerable damage potential. In such scenario the following

steps should be taken:

Contain fuel supply to the tankers;

Determine the extent of damage; and

Undertake all the emergency actions mentioned above.

Major spillage due to storage tank rupture or tanker failure

This accident scenario has considerable damage potential. In such case the following steps

have to be taken up:

Determine the extent of damage;

Contain fuel supply to HSD tanks; and

Undertake all the emergency actions mentioned above.

Accidents involving HSD

In case of leakage of oil from flanges, valves, tail ends or during transfer from

truck tanker (TTS):

Detect the source of leakage;

If possible, try to collect the leaking oil in a suitable container;

Bring portable fire extinguishers near to the area of leakage; and

Stop flow of spilled oil and prevent it from coming into contact with any

ignition source.

If HSD is ignited at the source of leak:

In addition to the above, following actions are to be taken:

Use fire extinguishers to diminish the fire;

See that the flame does not impinge on tanks or any other adjacent installation;

If impingement of flame is unavoidable, put water curtain in between and cool the

adjacent installations;

Give priority to closure of valve and stop the flow;

Best trained personnel to prevent further spread of fire;

Take all necessary actions to avoid escalation of the accidents; and

In case of fire, ensure suffocation and toxicity due to flame does not take place.

In case of fire near HSD storage tanks:

If the fire is near the storage tank areas, use water hydrant and DCP type fire

extinguishers;

Never allow fire to spread to the area below the tank, start cooling the tank by the

emergency water spray; and

Call fire brigade & police for assistance.

Disaster Management Plan

A disaster is a catastrophic situation in which suddenly, people are plunged into

helplessness and suffering, as a result, need protection, clothing, shelter, medical and social

care and other necessities of life.

Disaster can be divided into two main groups. In the first, disasters resulting from

natural phenomena like earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, storm surges, cyclones, tropical

storms, floods, avalanches, landslides, forest fires, etc. The second group includes

disastrous events occasioned by man, or man‟s impact upon the environment. Examples are

armed conflict, radiation accidents, campus fires and river pollution, air, sea, rail and road

transport accidents and can reach catastrophic dimensions in terms of human loss.

There can be no set criteria for assessing the gravity of a disaster in the abstract since

this depends to a large extent on the physical, economic and social environment in which it

occurs. What would be considered a major disaster in a developing country, ill equipped to

cope with the problems involved may not mean more than a temporary emergency

elsewhere. However, all disaster brings in their wake similar consequences that call for

immediate action, whether at the local, national or international level, for the rescue and

relief of the victims. This includes the search for the dead and injured and removal of debris

and social care, the provision of temporary shelter to the homeless food, clothing and

medical supplies and rapid re-establishment of essential services.

Objectives of Disaster Management Plan (DMP)

The disaster Management Plan is aimed to ensure safety of life, protection of

environment, protection of installation, restoration of production and salvage operations in

this same order of priorities. For effective implementation of the Disaster Management Plan,

it will be widely circulated and personnel training given through rehearsals/drills.

The disaster Management Plan would reflect the probable, consequential severalties of

the undesired event due to deteriorating conditions or through „knock on‟ effects. Further

the management should be able to demonstrate that their assessment of the consequences

uses good supporting evidence and is based on currently available and reliable information,

incident data from internal and external sources and if necessary the reports of outside

agencies.

To tackle the consequences of a major emergency inside the factory or immediate

vicinity if the factory, a Disaster Management Plan has to be formulated and this planned

emergency document is called “Disaster Management Plan”.

The objective of Disaster Management Plan is to make use of the combine resources of

the plant and the outside services to achieve the following:

Effect the rescue and medical treatment of causalities;

Safeguard other people;

Minimize damage to property and the environment;

Initially contain and ultimately bring the incident under control;

Identify any dead;

Provide for needs of relatives;

Provide authoritative information to the news media;

Secure the safe rehabilitation of affected area; and

Preserve relevant records and equipment for subsequent inquiry into the cause and

circumstances of the Emergency.

In effect, it is to optimize operational efficiency to rescue rehabilitation and render

medical help and to restore normalcy.

Social Impact Assessment

The impact of the proposed project will begin with the starting up of the construction

activities at the site. The proposed construction will provide employment to considerable

number of skilled and semi-skilled and un-skilled construction laborers. In normal

circumstances, the local people will be given preference for the unskilled activities, as there

are many construction laborers in the vicinity of the project and are expected to be available

with normal wages. Presently, a large number of skilled and semi-skilled technicians and

laborers who in-migrated from various parts of India have been engaged in many

companies on wages/contract basis. Similar technicians and skilled workers will either be

brought or sourced from the local area for construction of the proposed project.

The peak labor force required during the construction period will be about 1000

per day and it is anticipated that about two third of the labor force will be sourced from the

local area. Provision of wage employment to the local populace during construction period of

the project will benefit the local area to some extent. This will enhance the income levels of

the construction phase of the proposed project, which will be positive impact due to the

project.

In addition, the real estate in the region will get a boon and the land prices likely

to shoot-up as part of speculation.

Normally, the construction activity will benefit the local populace in a number of

ways, which include the requirement of skilled, semi-skilled and un-skilled construction

laborers, tertiary sector employment and provision of goods and services for daily needs

including transport. In line with the above, some more recommendations are given below:

Local people will be given preference;

All the guidelines under the Labour Act and Safety Rules as specified under Factories

Act, 1948 will be implemented during the construction work to avoid any accidents;

The contractor will be instructed to provide cooking fuel to the workers to prevent

damage to trees. This will be part of the contractual agreement between the project

proponent and the contractor engaged for construction; and

The construction site will be secured with fencing and will have guarded entry points.

Rehabilitation & resettlement action phase

The proposed project does not involve any Rehabilitation & Resettlement Issues, as the

entire land required for the proposed project is available under project proponent.
