Ambient Air Quality
Ambient air monitoring was carried out at six stations during the Post Monsoon season (October-November) of 2009. The parameters monitored were Particulate Matter (PM10), Sulphur Dioxide (SO2), Nitrogen Oxides (NOx), Hydro Carbons (HC) and Methanated and Non-methanated Volatile Organic Carbons (VOCs). Results indicated that the levels of these pollutants are well within limits specified by the GPCB.
Groundwater Quality
Groundwater samples were collected from six different locations such as Umaraya, Luna, Ekalbara, Dabhasa, Mahuvad and Mujpur. Analysis of the samples that collected was compared for all parameters with the specified limit for drinking water as per IS: 10500. The non-conforming parameters are as follows:
• TDS for Dabhasa Village is higher than the permissible limit.
• Total hardness at all locations is below desirable limit except at village Dabhasa, where it is higher than the permissible limit
• Magnesium content is lower than permissible limit at all location except at Dabhasa Village
• Iron content is higher than Permissible limit at all locations except Dabhasa and Ekalbara village where the iron content is below permissible limit.
Surface Water Quality
Surface water samples were collected from five different locations, namely Luna pond, Dabhasa pond, Narmada Canal near Luna village, Mahi River near Ekalbara village and Mahi River near Jaspur village. Analysis of the samples of pond that collected was compared for all parameters with the specified limit for drinking water as per IS: 10500. The non-conforming parameters are as follows:
• Faecal coliform and total coliform counts are above permissible limit at all location. Hence the water is not drinking and treatment is necessary for making it potable.
The Mahi River Estuary near Ekalbara and near Jaspur can be classified under Class D, i.e. suitable for propagation of wildlife, fisheries.
Demography
Analysis of the demographical statistics, based on latest census data of the study area reveals the following points:
• The total population is about 1,60,264 persons.
• There are 84,457 males and 75,807 females in the study area.
• There are 31,388 dwelling units in the study area.
• Overall literacy rate is about 60.5%. Out of total literate persons male literacy is 62.0% and female literacy is 38.0%.
• Scheduled castes constitute about 6.1% of the population in the study area
• Scheduled tribes constitute about 1.4% of the population in the study area.
Soil
• Surface soil samples were taken from site along with four different locations of the vicinity of site, namely Umaraya village, Luna village, Ekalbara village and Dabhasa village. These were analyzed for a range of parameters.

Environmental Impact Identification, Prediction and Mitigation
Ambient Air
Ambient air monitoring carried out in post monsoon season reveals that the ambient air quality for Particulate Matter (PM10), Sulphur Dioxide (SO2), Nitrogen Oxides (NOx), Hydro Carbons (HC) and Methanated and Non-methanated Volatile Organic Carbons (VOCs) are within the limits specified by CPCB.
The dispersion modeling was done as per the general guidelines of CPCB vide their publication “Assessment of Impact to Air Environment: Guidelines for conducting Air Quality Modeling”, 1998 and using ISCST-3 model of USEPA. From the dispersion model, it is observed that the predicted ambient air quality due to plant operations is well within limits specified by the CPCB.
• The maximum 24 hourly average GLC’s for SO2 is observed to be 25.70 µg/m3. These GLC’s are expected to occur at a distance of 150 m from the source towards the SW direction.
• The maximum 24 hourly average GLC’s for NOx is observed to be 2.33 µg/m3. These GLC’s are expected to occur at a distance of 150 m from the source towards the SW direction.
• The maximum 24 hourly average GLC’s for PM is observed to be 0.55 µg/m3. These GLC’s are expected to occur at a distance of 150 m from the source towards the SW direction.
Water
Impact on water resources
For proposed production, water requirement is approximately 250 KLD out of which 9 KLD will be used for domestic purposes and the rest for industrial purposes. The unit will draw ground water. The unit is not located in critical zone specified by CGWA so no special permission will be required to withdraw groundwater.
Impact on water quality
Impact on receiving water body:
Approx 187 KLD Effluent generated from processing, boiler, cooling and washing will be treated in effluent treatment plant and then sent to ECPL for the final disposal into the Estuary of river Mahi. Hence there will be no adverse impact on receiving water bodies.

INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND
KADAM ENVIRONMENTAL CONSULTANTS 7 MARCH 2011
Impact on ground water quality:
There will be no disposal of untreated water on land so impact on groundwater quality due to the proposed activity.
Land/Soil
There will be no disposal of untreated effluent on land. So there will be no adverse effect on land/soil due to proposed production.
Organic Coatings Ltd will also take all necessary precautions to make its solid waste and effluent storage / treatment areas impervious to water and prevent leachate migration. This will prevent soil contamination.
Noise Levels
As per the monitoring done, the noise level is well below the specified limits. With the implementation of the proposed mitigation measures, the noise levels at plant boundaries will remain well below the limits specified for industrial areas.
Flora and fauna
The floristic component of the study area does not include any rare or endangered species. Thus, impact on rare and endangered species of flora is also ruled out.
The proposed activities do not envisage destruction of habitat and feeding or breading area of faunal species. No rare or endangered species of fauna are reported to exist in the area. Thus, no impacts on rare / endangered species are envisaged due to normal operations.
Socio-Economic
There will be 60 job opportunities in operational phase.
Mitigation Measures
Mitigation measures are prescribed to reduce adverse impacts. Some of the important mitigation measures proposed is as follows:
Environmental Management Plan • Environment management cell will be organized and responsibilities will be assigned to
concerned members.
• Environment monitoring plan will be prepared for air pollution, water pollution and solid waste generation.
• It is expected that OCL shall incur a capital expenditure of about Rs. 125.91 Lac and an annual recurring expenditure of about Rs.64.82 Lac at current prices on environmental matters.
Disaster Management Plan • Consequence analysis of all possible containment scenarios was carried out using DNV
Technica Software (PHAST) for process industry projects.
• Major credible scenarios have onsite or close to onsite impacts.
• Recommendations based on the above consequence analysis have been provided in the report.
Results of Consequence Assessment
The results of consequence assessment for the credible scenarios indicate that the risk contours are confined within the site boundary only.

The proposed project is not located within a notified industrial area / estate, and consequently lies in ’Category A’ of the Environmental Impact Assessment Notification, requiring Environmental Clearance from MoEF, New Delhi.
1.3.5 Importance and Justification of the Project
The main use of printing inks is for printing of newspapers, books, magazines, packaging, currency and security note printing. It is estimated that the total world market for printing inks is currently pegged at ~US$ 14 billion, out of which the Indian market is expected to be worth ~US$ 450 Million. The Indian market is reportedly growing at around 11-13% annually, providing ample scope for setting up of additional capacity in the sector.
OCL is perhaps the most significant Indian supplier of printing inks for the printing industry. Security and currency note printing in particular, is a very specialized activity and OCL is the only Indian organization that is an approved supplier to the RBI and Bank Note Press (under the Ministry of Finance) as a quality of supplier of printing inks for printing security and currency notes, an activity of strategic importance.
By undertaking this project OCL also aims to undertake backward integration of its printing inks production (by undertaking manufacturing of pigments and ink concentrates using next generation technology incorporating significantly reduced energy consumption processes) and strengthen its pioneering position in the market as an Indian printing inks supplier of repute.
1.4 Scope of the Study – Details of Regulatory Scoping Carried Out (As Per Terms of Reference)
