5. PLANNING BRIEF:
i. Planning concept (type of industries, facilities, transportation etc) Town and Country
planning/ Development authority Classification:
This is a granite Building stone mining project.
It is proposed to produce maximum 150,265 tonnes building stones per annum. The mined
material will be transported by trucks to the crushing & screening plant located outside the
quarry lease area by tippers of 10 tonnes capacity. Effective Environment Management will be
carried out to control the pollution of Air, Water, Noise and Ground vibration.
The Mining Plan for the operations in the quarry lease area is approved by the District
Geologist, Department of Mining and Geology, Government of Kerala, Wayanad District,
Kerala, vide Letter No. DOW/M-1265/2017 Dated 05.12.2017.
ii. Population Projection:
There will not be any increase in population due to the project. The man power required shall
be employed from the local areas. The drivers / truck operators also shall be engaged from
local areas. Hence not much influx of population from outside is anticipated.

Total Mining Lease Area 1.948 1.948 1.948
iv. Assessment of Infrastructure demand (physical & social):
All the manpower for the project shall be employed from the local area. Thus, there shall not be
influx of people into the region; therefore, no increase in the population is envisaged during the
period of the operations.
The operations are also small scale. Hence, infrastructure demand both in the form of physical and
social infrastructure, in terms of physical infrastructure will not be very demanding.
However, the project would raise the economic status of the people in the region thus the social
infrastructure like education, health and hygiene, sports, etc. would be quite demanding. The
company thus commits to support the local community in the field of Health & Hygiene, Basic
education, Education of girl child, Sports, renewable energy etc. thereby strengthening the social
infrastructure of the region.
6. PROPOSED INFRASTRUCTURE
(i) Industrial Area (Processing Area):
No Crushing or screening or processing is planned within the quarry lease area. The entire product
from the mine will be transported to the Crushing & Screening plant located outside the lease area.
Existing road shall be strengthened & made use for the transportation. As the mining equipment
are all diesel powered there is no need for external power. The infrastructure facilities like Quarry
office, site services, First Aid room, Rest shelter, and other statutory facilities, etc., shall be located
in the close proximity of the quarry lease area.
The man power requirement shall be employed from local area, no additional infrastructure is
required.

(ii) Residential Area (Non Processing Area):
No additional residential area is required as the manpower for this project shall be employed from
the nearby villages.
(iii)Green Belt:
0.420Ha area earmarked for safety barrier shall be developed as green belt by planting minimum
but not limiting 650 local species. Till conceptual stage totally 0.420Ha area shall be covered
under green belt. Apart from this Afforestation shall be done on the haulage road by planting 150
saplings.
(iv)Social Infrastructure:
The project shall generate 34 direct and Equal indirect employment to the local people. Hence, the
activity will contribute to the improvement of income status of the local people. The quarry project
will also improve infrastructure facilities, eventually leading to the overall development of the area,
resulting in the improvement of standard of life of local population.
The Project proponent undertakes to spend Rs 4.00 Lakhs per Annum, to take up CSR works in the
surrounding villages in the sector of Healthcare, Sanitation, Education of Girl child, Sports,
Environment, renewable energy, etc.
(v) Connectivity (Traffic and Transportation Road/ Rail/ Metro/ Water ways etc)
This granite building stone quarry is located at 1.0 Kms from Rattakolly Village in Vaythiri
Taluk, which is located at about 11 Kms SW of Kalpetta town. The quarry can be reached via
Meppadi Road. The Infrastructure Plan is enclose vide Plate No.11.
(vi) Drinking water Management (Source & Supply of Water):
Drinking water shall be made available at all the times to the mine workers. This will be
sourced by water tankers from the bore well outside the quarry lease area, A water purifier
shall be installed to provide safe drinking water.
(vii) Sewerage system:
Not applicable, as no human settlement is proposed in the lease area.
(viii) Industrial Waste Management:
No industrial waste is going to generate at this quarry.

(ix) Solid waste Management:
It is expected to recover 22,749 tonnes top soil during quarrying this area. This top soil shall
be used in afforestation / Green belt / Safety barrier all along the periphery of the quarry
lease area.
No other waste is envisaged from the operations.
Power Requirement & Supply / Source:
As all the machinery are self primed by diesel engines, no external power is required.
7. REHABILITATION AND RESETTLEMENT (R*R) PLAN
(i) Policy to be adopted (Central/ State) in respect of the project affected persons including
home ousters, land ousters and land less laborers (a brief outline to be given):
Not applicable since there is no rehabilitation and resettlement involved in this project.
8. PROJECT SCHEDULE & COST ESTIMATES
i. Likely date of start of construction and likely date of completion (Time schedule for the
project to be given):
The Quarry will be commenced immediately after getting the statutory approvals from
Government authorities. Total cost of the project is about Rs 140.0 lakhs.
ii. Estimated project cost along with analysis in terms of Economic viability of the project.
Considering the present domestic market conditions of the products, the appx. Cost of the project
estimated is around Rs. 140 lakhs. The summary of the assets are given below. Mining machinery
will be hired through contractors.

in domestic market is further expected.
9. ANALYSIS OF PROPOSAL (FINAL RECOMMENDATIONS)
This project will be one of the major economic activities resulting in provide livelihood and have
positive impact on socio-economic life of people living in nearby villages thereby contributing to
the overall up gradation of living standards. The project also generates revenues to the state and
central governments, by way of royalties, taxes, Cess, DMF, etc,
