It has its own Research & Development Centre situated at Faridabad, Haryana, near New Delhi.
Indian Oil and its subsidiaries account for a 49% share in the petroleum products market, 31%
share in refining capacity and 67% downstream sector pipelines capacity in India. The Indian Oil
Group of companies owns and operates 10 of India's 22 refineries with a combined refining
capacity of 65.7 million metric tonnes per year. In FY 2012 IOCL sold 75.66 million tonnes of
petroleum products and reported a PBT of Rs. 37.54 billion, and the Government of India earned
an excise duty of Rs.232.53 billion and tax of INR10.68 billion.
1.3. Project and Its Importance to the Country
IOCL is has set up (in first phase) new LPG Marketing Terminal at Paradip, Odisha in order to
store and distribute LPG production of IOCL Refinery at Paradip.
In Phase-II, IOCL is planning to expand storage and handling of LPG by setting up LPG Import
Facility in the existing LPG Marketing Terminal premises based on the international supply /
Indian demand scenario of LPG & its constituents (Propane & Butane). Mounded bullets for bulk
Butane & Propane storage (20 Nos. x 2,000 MT) will be set up for storage purpose.
India is presently deficit in LPG and industry is dependent on imports to meet domestic demand.
Total LPG imports for 2011-12 and 2012-13 stood at about 5.8 MMT and 6.3 MMT respectively.
As per projections made by Petroleum Planning & Analysis Cell (PPAC), LPG demand is
projected to grow at a CAGR of 2.6% during XIII Five Year Plan.

Demand in
TMT

It can be seen that deficit of LPG in the country will be increasing year after year and therefore, sufficient LPG import infrastructure is essentially required to meet the demand. In Eastern Region, we have only one LPG import facility at Haldia which is being stretched to almost double the rated capacity. There is also problem of severe draft as well as jetty availability at Haldia affecting smooth supply of LPG. It is, therefore, proposed to construct LPG Import Facility at Paradip within the existing LPG marketing Terminal premises.
LPG will be imported in VLGCs at South Oil Jetty constructed by Paradip Refinery where space for putting up Butane / Propane unloading facility is available. Imported Butane / Propane would be transferred to LPG Import Facility through 2 nos. underground pipelines. Imported Butane and Propane will be stored in aboveground mounded storage vessels and sent to market as LPG after blending of Butane & Propane.
With increased availability of LPG at Paradip through imports, LPG can be moved through upcoming Paradip-Haldia-Durgapur-Barauni-Patna-Muzaffarpur pipeline to LPG bottling plants in West Bengal and Bihar.
1.4. Purpose and Need of EIA
The EIA is anticipated to make available for the protection, conservation and wise management
of environment through planning and informed decision making. Environmental Impact
Assessment (EIA) is requisite to be carried out only for those categories of projects that are
covered under EIA notification, 2006 (amended time to time) and the criteria for screening have
been provided in the Act. Thus, EIA is fundamentally made applicable to industrial and
developmental projects, which are more likely to have significant environmental impacts.
M/s. Indian Oil Corporation Limited falls in Activity 6(b), category B - Isolation Storage & handling
of Hazardous Chemicals. As per the notification, proposed project will have to obtain
Environmental Clearance from SEIAA or SEAC, govt. of Odisha.
1.5. EIA Consultant:
In view of the above, legal aspect and monitoring work has been carried out for all the
environmental attributes by Green circle Inc. Vadodara.
The draft environmental impact assessment (EIA) and Environmental Management Plan (EMP)
has been prepared based on approved Terms of References (ToRs) by SEIAA/SEAC, Odisha.

3.3. Geology
Jagatsinghpur district is one of the thickly populated coastal districts of Orissa in the eastern part underlain by alluvial deposits that resulted fertile agricultural land. Agriculture is the mainstay of the people and economy of the district is mainly based on agricultural production. It is bounded in north by Kendrapara district, in the north and northwest by Cuttack district and Puri district in the south west and in the east by the Bay of Bengal.
The river Mahanadi flowing from west to east and forming the northern boundary of the district forms the main drainage system in the district. Besides the river Devi, a tributary to Kathajori and flowing north-northwest to south-southeast with a meandering course also forms a drainage system in the district.
The district enjoys irrigation facilities through major, medium, and lift irrigation projects. The major irrigation projects in the district are Taladanda and Machgaon canal irrigation system fed from the Mahanadi River at Jobra point near Cuttack. During kharif total irrigated area from all sources is only 66529 hectares against average net sown area of 94445 hectares in 2004-05. During Ravi season total area irrigated is around 31017 hectares.
The district comprises two distinct tracts, the first being marshy and swampy strips along with the coast covered with wild growth of reeds and tropical jungle. The second tract covers fertile plain land. The soil is of alluvial type. Mahanadi,Kathajodi, Devi, Biluakhai are the main rivers of the district. These rivers and two main canals Taladanda and Machhagaon are irrigating the district.
In Jagatsinghpur district, the ground water occurs in the inter-granular pore spaces. Sand and gravel layers act as repository of ground water. Ground water occurs under unconfined condition in the shallow aquifer zone and perched water table condition within sand dunes underlain by clay beds. The ground water is also found under semi-confined condition in the deeper aquifer zones. The coastal tract held promise for large-scale development for ground water. But the coastal tract is beset quite often with salinity problems both in shallow as well as in deeper aquifers.
3.6. Geomorphology and Soil Types
Physiographically the district can broadly divide into two distinct units, viz.
i. The saline marshy tract along the coast
ii. The very gently sloping plain
The saline marshy tract forms a long and narrow strip along the coast. The width of this tract varies from 3 to 15 km and is intersected by tidal streams and shrubby vegetation. Sand dunes of varied relief extend continuously for kilometers parallel to the coast. These sand dunes usually forming 5 to 6 chains are gently sloping on the bay side and steeply sloping on the inland side, due to their Aeolian origin. The gently sloping alluvial plain occurs to the west of the saline marshy tract and forms the most fertile part of the district. The general slope of this tract is towards east and southeast and varies from 0.50 to 1.60 m/km.
The distribution of different soil types in the district depends much on its physiographic and lithologic variations. Based on the physical and chemical characteristics, mode of origin and occurrence, soils of the district may be classified into three groups namely Alfisols, Aridisols and Entisols.
i. Alfisols: This includes deltaic alluvial soils and this type of soils occupies nearly 90% of the entire district area. The deltaic alluvial soils are generally deficient in phosphate (P2O5) and nitrogen (N). Both the total and available potassium are fairly adequate and PH varies between 7.38 and 8.16.
ii. Aridisols: These are saline and saline alkali soils and occur in small pockets in the north eastern and south eastern corner of the district near coast. These are rich in calcium, magnesium and also consist of half decomposed organic matter.
iii. Entisols: This includes coastal sandy soils and occurs as narrow elongated ridge along the coast line. The soils are deficient in nitrogen, phosphoric acid and humus, but not in potash and lime.
3.7. Forest:
The district has a meagre forest area. The total forest area of the district is estimated to be 132.92 Sq. Kms. Out of the total forest area, the reserve forest area is only 1.23 sq. Km and demarcated protected forest area is 4.77 sq. kms. Un-demarcated forest area is 83.06 sq. km. unclassified forest area is 0.02 sq. km. and other forest area is 43.84 sq. kms. The major forest products of the district are mango, sopeta, kendu leaves, sal leaves and t amarind. Important minor forest produces are sunari barks, arjuna barks, karanja seeds, neem seeds, mushroom, sal leaves etc.

3.8. Seismicity
Study area falls in Zone III in seismic zoning map of India, which is classified as “moderate damage risk zone”.
3.9. Land use
The basic purpose of land use pattern and classification in an EIA study is to identify the
manner in which different parts of land in an area are being utilized or not utilized. Remote
sensing data provides reliable accurate baseline information for land use mapping, as it is a
rapid method of acquiring up-to-date information of over a large geological area.
A systematic digital image interpretation approach was used to delineate the land use classes.
The present study was focused on demarcating boundaries of different land use/land cover
units from an analysis of different types of colour registrations of land use/land cover units from

Reconnaissance:
The quality of ambient air depends upon the background concentrations of specific
contaminants, the emission sources and meteorological conditions. The study on baseline
ambient air quality status in the project area is an essential and primary requirement for
assessing the impacts on air environment due to any proposed developmental activity.
The baseline studies on air environment include identification of specific air pollution
parameters expected to have significant impacts and assessing their existing levels in ambient
air within the impact zone. To assess the baseline status of ambient air quality in the study
area monitoring is undertaken to ascertain the baseline pollutant concentrations in ambient air.

Methodology for air Monitoring:
AAQM was carried out and AAQM locations were monitored on 24 hourly average bases twice
in a week as per guidelines of CPCB and NAAQS. The conventional and project specific
parameters such as particulate matter PM10 (size less than 10 µm), particulate matter PM2.5
(size less than 2.5µm), Sulphur Dioxide (SO2) & Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx) were monitored.
Selection of Stations for Sampling:
Depending upon the purpose of the study IS: 5184 (part XIV) lays down various criteria for
selection of sampling stations. For EIA/ EMP, the purpose is to ascertain the baseline pollutant
concentrations in ambient air. Accordingly, the criterion can be selected to ascertain quality of
air on human settlements or environmentally sensitive areas if any located in the 10 km radius
study area.
The locations for AAQM study were selected within the 10 km radius of the proposed plant
installation. Ambient air quality was monitored on 7 locations to generate representative
ambient air quality data. The sampling locations are shown in Table 3.4.

3.12. Water Environment
3.12.1. Reconnaissance Survey
Reconnaissance survey has been done for water quality monitoring in the Study Area. The
baseline water quality of ground water / surface water in the region is obtained by collecting
sample from villages in the area considering the 10 km radius for the baseline study.
3.12.2. Methodology of Monitoring
In order to establish the baseline water quality, ground water and surface water sampling
locations were selected based on availability, following standard norms and requirement.
Ground water samples were collected from the identified hand pumps and bore wells for the
characterization of water quality. Selection of surface water sampling locations has been
considered as per the utilization pattern of the villagers for domestic purposes.
The samples collected were preserved, stored and analyzed as per standards methods of
Analysis of Water and Waste water (APHA, 1995). The methodology for water analysis is listed
below in Table: 3.7 & 3.8.

No- 1&3, Bhitargarh area of Jagatsinghpur district in Odisha State. The construction and
operational phase of the proposed project comprises various activities each of which may have
an impact on environmental parameters. Various impacts during the construction and operation
phase on the environment have been studied to estimate the impact on the environmental
attributes and are discussed in the subsequent section. The probable impacts of each of these
activities on various sectors of environment have been mentioned below in two headings:
Construction Phase
Operation Phase
4.2. Impact during Construction Phase
The impact during construction will be localized and short term with permanent changes in
profile of the project site as compared to the current conditions. Impact will be primarily related
to the civil works and less intensive impact is expected during erection of the equipment and
trial operation. Except for change in land use all other environment impacts will be temporary in
nature.
4.2.1. Impact on Topography and Land-use
The installation activities include excavation of soil from the proposed site.
The excavated loose soil will be utilized for leveling of low lying areas inside the plant. Thus,
the impact on topography during construction phase is insignificant. About 52.7 Acres of land is
already available for LPG Marketing Terminal. Land required for LPG Import Facility project
has already been earmarked. The land has been taken from Paradip Port Trust on long term
lease. Project area is low lying non-agricultural barren land, which was filled up approx. 3.0 m
during construction of LPG Marketing Terminal. The present project site is level land. The
earthwork and storage of constructions material may temporarily affect the topsoil in terms of

erosion as well as amendment of soil. Transport of construction material would lead to an
increase in traffic flux. However, these temporary impacts will gradually disappear on
completion of the project.
Mitigation Measures: Water sprinkling will be regularly carried in order to arrest the fugitive
dust to the maximum extent possible. All construction equipment will be maintained properly.
Only “PUC” certified vehicles of contractor will be deployed at site. The green belt will reduce
fugitive emissions in the environment.
4.2.2. Impact on Noise Environment
The project site is likely to have increase noise level up to 80-90 dB(A) due to the
constructional activity, the movement of heavy motor vehicles, loading and unloading, handling
of equipments and materials, construction equipments like dozer, scrapers, concrete mixer,
crane, generators pumps and compressor, etc. The nature of impact is short term and
reversible.
During Construction Phase, potential noise emissions will be mainly from:
Diesel Generators: 65 - 70 dB(A)
Heavy Duty Construction equipment: 75 to 90 dB(A)
Vehicular Noise: 70 dB(A) (at the edge from the centerline of the road)
Mitigation Measures:
To minimize the impact, construction schedules would be optimized to day time working and
the night activities will be scaled down. Extensive earthmoving and movement of heavy
equipments would be conducted only during the regular working hours in day time. Noise and
vibration impacts at construction sites will be minimized by:
Fitting mufflers to vehicles and construction equipments. Adequate personal protective equipment like ear plugs and ear muffs will be provided to the plant workers to reduce the effect of noise.
Diesel Generator sets will be provided with acoustic enclosures.
Project site periphery will be shielded.
Noise generating machinery exceeding noise standards will not be used. Green belt will be developed around the periphery of project site.
Overall, the impact of generated noise on the environment during construction period is likely to
be insignificant, reversible and localized in nature and mainly confined to the day hours.
4.2.3. Impact on Drainage
The natural drainage channel passing through our project site is clear of any obstruction. The
same will be futher strengthened with side pitching to prevent soil erosion and its natural
course shall Only surface runoffs are likely in monsoon which will be channelized to natural
streams. Natural drainage pattern will not be affected as construction activity will be done
inside the proposed project periphery. Thus there will be no impact on drainage pattern.

4.2.4. Impact on Water Environment
Water requirement will be met by bore wells as water consumption is very low. It is expected
that most of the construction workers may be hired from the nearby areas in the vicinity of the
project site. No migration of workers is envisaged for this project. Since, only local workers
would be engaged for the project, sanitation facility will be provided for the workers working
during the construction phase. Also the water requirement during the construction phase will be
very minimal so the overall impact on water environment due to construction of proposed
project is likely to be temporary, short term and insignificant.
4.2.5. Impact on Soil Environment
To keep the damage to top soil minimum excavators shall be used for construction. The
excavated material such as top soil and stone shall be stacked at safe places for reuse at a
later stage of construction. To prevent soil erosion during construction phase temporary
seeding sedimentation basins contour trenching mulching etc. can be done based on the net
imperviousness by the site and it should not exceed the imperviousness factory as prescribed
by the national Building Code, 2005. Preserving existing vegetation or re-vegetation disturbed
soils is one of the most effective ways to control soil erosion. During dry weather, control of the
dust nuisance created by excavation and transportation activities shall be carried out by water
sprinkling.
4.2.6. Impact on Biological Environment
Development of Green belt all around the project will be started along with the construction
activities to control the dust and noise due to construction activities within plant boundary.
Therefore, no impact on the biological environment is envisaged.
4.2.7. Impact on Socio-Economic Environment
The manpower will be required during the construction phase. The required manpower would
be engaged locally to the extent possible. In addition to the opportunity of getting employment
as construction laborers, the local population would also have employment opportunities in
related service activities like commercial establishments, small contracts/subcontracts and
supply of construction materials for buildings and ancillary infrastructures etc. There will be
positive impact for the local workforce during construction phase of the project.
4.2.8. Traffic Volume
There will be slight increase in road traffic. The site has good road connectivity. Traffic volume
on nearby roads will increase due to movement of medium and heavy vehicles considering the
overall size and nature of the Project, the increase in traffic will not have any significant effect.
A traffic management plan for the area will be developed to ease the situation. The following
arrangement would be made to ease the situation.
Mitigation Measures:
The roads will be strengthened, if required, for transportation of material, goods etc.
Drivers of trucks / dumpers engaged in construction work will be instructed to give way to passenger buses, cars etc.

Transport of construction materials and machineries will be carried out during lean traffic period of the day or during night.
4.2.9. Impact due to Solid/Hazardous Waste Solid Waste
Generation of solid waste in the form of excavated earth is envisaged during the construction
period. There will be temporary piling of excavated earth and shall be utilized for leveling of the
low lying area in the plant. During construction of Mounded Bullets for bulk Butane & Propane
storage (20 Nos. x 2,000 MT), some solid materials are expected to be generated. The gas
cylinders used for welding shall be returned back to the supplier. Cement bags, plastic buckets,
coal tar drums, damaged tools and other containers are used during construction and
discarded as solid wastes.
Hazardous Waste
The hazardous materials used during the construction may include diesel, welding gas and
paints, etc. These have to be disposed carefully.
4.3. Impact during Operation Phase
The impact during the operation phase will be continuous in nature. However whatever impact
on environment is present will be minimized through effective mitigation measures.
4.3.1. Impact on Topography and Land-use
As the bullets will be mounded with earth/sand and the operation will be confined in closed,
leak proof system, no impact is envisaged on the topography during operation phase.
4.3.2. Impact on Air Quality & Fugitive Emission
No emission is envisaged during the storage & handling of LPG in the Mounded Bullets. LPG
will be imported in VLGCs at South Oil Jetty constructed by Paradip Refinery where space for
putting up Butane / Propane unloading facility is available. Imported Butane / Propane would
be transferred to LPG Import Facility through 2 nos. underground pipelines. Imported Butane
and Propane will be stored in aboveground mounded storage vessels and sent to market as
LPG after blending of Butane & Propane. The proposed LPG plant will be operated in a well
proven leak proof system, thus there will no source of emissions from the storage and blending
LPG marketing terminal. LPG vessel is not designed for full vacuum, some alternatives, in
order of preference, are as follows:
a. Design for partial vacuum condition. This alternative is applicable when the vacuum
conditions caused by ambient temperature conditions. The design pressure shall be equal to
the vapor pressure of the product at the ambient temperature. In this situation, no additional
protection against vacuum is needed.
b. Design for partial vacuum with a vacuum relief valve and a connection to a reliable supply of
hydrocarbon gas. This alternative may compromise product quality.
c. Design for partial vacuum with a vacuum relief valve that admits air to the vessel. This
alternative, under some conditions, may present a hazard from the presence of air in the LPG

storage vessel, and this hazard shall be considered in the design. LPG Vessels shall meet the
requirements of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section VIII, Division I or 2.
The air environment may have a little negative impact due to increase of vehicles and DG set.
The proposed DG sets are standby in nature and will be operated only when power failure from
Central electricity supply utility of Orissa (CESU).
There are 2 Stacks existing and one proposed, designed as per CPCB guidelines for the
exhaust gases to dissipate in the air. Hence adverse impact is not envisaged from DG sets.
The trucks that come into the terminal are also provided with spark arrestors. In total about 89
tank trucks a day is expected to move in and out of the unit. The Vehicles will be regularly
checked for emission levels and hence emission from the exhausts of the vehicles will have
least effect on the atmosphere.
4.3.3. Impact on Water Environment
The source of water for the proposed project shall meet through Bore wells. Total water
requirement for the proposed expansion project will be 39.74 KLD (Existing-27.74 KLD &
Proposed-12 KLD). 9.45 KLD sewage will be treated in existing STP (Capacity-10.5 KLD).
Wash water from Floor washing (0.55 m3/d) will be diverted to sedimentation traps and reused.
The sources of waste water from the proposed terminal are from canteen facilities and office
building. The waste water is treated in sewage treatment plant and is reused for gardening and
other activities like toilet flushing and cleaning purposes. Zero discharge is proposed for the
terminal project. The proposed activity does not envisage generation/ disposal of any
hazardous or toxic materials, which could leach down to water table. Hence, impact on the
water quality and water body is not envisaged in the proposed project.
4.3.4. Impact due to Solid Waste
Municipal solid waste will be disposed through local bodies. Spent lube oil from D.G. set will be
sold to OSPCB Authorized recyclers.
4.3.5. Impact on Noise Levels
As the proposed Mounded Bullets shall be operated in closed circuit, it is envisaged that noise
environment would remain unaffected during operation of the proposed facilities.
4.3.6. Impact on Biological Environment
Terrestrial Ecology
The probability and consequences of significant ecological impacts occurring as a result of the
operation of the Mounded Bullets/facility are considered to be almost negligible. The risk of any
leakage is almost negligible owing to stringent leak prevention technologies.
Aquatic Ecology
There will be no effluent discharge in the water body. Thus there is no impact on the aquatic
biota present in vicinity of proposed project.

CHAPTER 5. ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAMME
5.1. Prelude
Environmental Monitoring describe the processes and activities that need to take place to
characterize and monitor the quality of the environment. Environmental Monitoring is used in
the preparation of the environmental impact assessment, as well as in many circumstances in
which human activities carry a risk of harmful effects on the natural environment. All monitoring
strategies and programs have reasons and justifications which are often designed to establish
the current status of an environment and prediction of the impact of future development and/ or
alteration in the operation and design of existing installation. Environmental Monitoring Network
is operation phase of the project for monitoring of various Environmental parameters like air,
water, Noise, soil, etc.
Environmental Monitoring Program will be as per requirement after the proposed new plant.
5.2. Implementation Schedule of Monitoring Measures
Monitoring should be done as periodically to understand the environmental condition of the
site. In order to facilitate easy implementation, mitigation measures are phased as per the
priority implementation. The priority of the implementation schedule is given in Table-5.1.

5.3. Environmental Monitoring
Environmental Monitoring should be carried out during construction and operation phase of the
project.
5.3.1. Monitoring and Reporting Procedure
Regular monitoring of important and crucial environmental parameters is of immense
importance to assess the status of the environment during construction & operational phase.
With the knowledge of baseline condition, the monitoring program can serve as an indicator for
any deterioration in environmental conditions due to operational phase and suitable mitigation
steps could be taken in time to safeguard the environment. Monitoring is as important as that of
control of pollution since the efficiency of control measures can only be determined by
monitoring. The proposed monitoring program gives below:
5.3.2. Air Pollution and Meteorological Aspects
Ambient air quality will be monitored. The ambient air quality with respect to NOx, SO2,
suspended particulate matter (PM10 and PM2.5) will be monitored in at least 5-6 location in
and around the project site through a reputed environmental laboratory recognized by
MoEF/NABL. Monitoring will be carried out for a period of 24 hours, every month during
construction phase and quarterly in operation phase. Emission from the DG sets maintained &
monitored according to standard & used only in power failure condition.
5.3.3. Water and Waste Water Quality
Ground water monitoring locations will be identified and periodically check the Physical,
chemical as well as biological parameter as per drinking water standard IS: 10500.
5.3.4. Noise Levels
Monitoring of the noise level is essential to assess the effectiveness of Environmental
Management Plan implemented to reduce noise levels. A good quality sound level meter and
noise exposure meter may be procured for the same.
Audiometric tests shall be conducted periodically for the employees working close to the high
noise sources.
5.4. Cost Provision for Environmental Measures
For environment protection and management and pollution control and treatment and
monitoring systems, appropriate budgetary provision would be made and provision for
recurring expenditure for environment management of the project would be made. The details
of budget allocation during construction phase and operation phase are given in Table-5.3.

CHAPTER 6. ENVIRONMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN
6.1. Introduction
Environmental Management is basically resource management and environmental planning is
similar to development planning. The conventional resource management and development
planning look at the issues from narrow micro-economical point of view while environmental
management views the issues from the broader prospective of long term sustainable
development option, which ensures that the environment is not desecrated. An Environmental
Management Plan is prepared for construction phase, post construction phase (commissioning
and operation) and for post project phase. The environmental management plan is prepared to
minimize the impact of atmospheric emissions, liquid effluents, solid wastes & noise generation
on the surrounding environment.
The baseline settings of different relevant environmental components in the study area are
analyzed and potential impacts on those components due to the proposed project are
documented. The impacts on environment are found to be minimal during the study; however
additional measures are documented for both construction and operation stages for further
improvement of Environmental Quality in the form of an Environmental Management Plan
(EMP).
6.2. Environment, Health and Safety (EHS)
It is of utmost concern for a company to conduct its business in a manner that will promote the
protection of the occupational Health & Safety; Welfare of its employees and others involved in
or affected by its business operations and address the environmental concerns regarding
sustainable development.
To be a responsive and responsible corporate citizen, we shall strive to achieve an
organizational culture of Safety, Health and Environmental excellence.
As an integral part of the company‟s business performance, the company shall declare full
commitment to achieve high levels of performance in Health, Safety and Environment.
Continual improvements in Safety, Health and Environment shall be recognized as essential for
the future success of the company.
6.3. Environmental Objectives
While developing an EMP within the framework of an EMS, it is imperative to have clear
environmental objectives and delineate them. The key environmental management objectives
for this project are to avoid significant adverse environmental impacts and to ensure that where
impacts do occur they are mitigated. In addition, the project proponent aims to meet the
following specific objectives.
To adopt construction and operational methods that will limit environmental degradation.
To protect physical environmental components such as air, water and soil.
To conserve terrestrial and aquatic flora and fauna.
M/S. INDIAN OIL CORPORATION LTD.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT REPORT

111
To protect historic and cultural sites.
To incorporate the views and perceptions of the local inhabitants in the project.
To generate employment opportunities wherever possible and feasible.
To provide environmental guidelines and stipulations to the construction contractors to minimize the impact of those activities around the proposed site.
To provide advanced sophisticated safety system to ensure safety of the public at large.
To establish a long term program to monitor effects of the project on the environment.
6.4. Implementation
The various players responsible for execution of the EMP and associated monitoring and
inspection and their designated levels of responsibilities are delineated below:
The Project Proponent will be responsible for providing all the necessary funding and
administrative support to the EMP and be ultimately responsible for carrying out this project
with total commitment to environmental matters.
The Management Representative (MR), working on behalf of the project proponent, will be
responsible for coordinating the activities of a technical staff, responsible for monitoring and
managing compliance of the EMP. The responsibilities include technical, community and
administrative matters related to the EMP, including liaison with the general public in the
project area, other parties and regulatory bodies on environmental issues related to the project.
This person will also keep the local communities informed of the environmental compliance of
the project and properly address any issues of their concern.
The EHS Representative with the help of the technical staff, will be responsible for monitoring
the compliance of the EMP (for which they will be given adequate training) and must report to
Management Representative (MR).
The Construction Contractor will be responsible for ensuring full compliance with environmental
matters related to construction activities, as laid down in the EMP. The construction contractor
will ensure that all his workers are properly briefed in environmental matters in terms of Do‟s
and Don‟ts while they work on the project. The cost towards implementation of EMP is the part
of the bidding document so that the related costs are included in the contract.
6.5. EMP for Construction Phase
Environmental impacts during the construction phase can be attributed to the site preparation,
excavation of trenches, erection & mechanical fabrication, construction activities, transportation
etc. and provision of civic amenities to the construction workforce. The potential for
environmental impact during construction phase on most of the environmental components are
temporary, and the environment returns back to its previous status on completion of the
construction. State of the art technology will be adopted for control of pollution during project
execution phase, whenever and wherever applicable.
All construction activities generally cause disruptions to the pre project environmental quality.
The following environmental protection measures should be incorporated as part of terms and
conditions of contract for implementation by the contractor or the authority as appropriate.
Recommendations made to minimize impacts during construction phase are delineated below:

Basic Engineering Control Measures
The primary aim of the environment management plan is to eliminate environmental impacts
during designing wherever possible or minimize the risks through best engineering controls.
The measures that can be integrated into design, construction and operation for proposed
expansion project can be broadly defined as:
Reducing possibility of leakage that could result in losses.
Surveillance to ensure that, in the highly unlikely event that a loss should occur, it would be quickly detected.
Developing effective response plans to contain any losses and to prevent damage resulting from any damage.
Incorporate drainage and minimize disturbance to natural drainage pattern, engineer slopes and drainages to minimize erosion.
Tank leakage, rupture
Proper design, fabrication and installation of tanks.
Optimum thickness of tank material with high grade steel.
PUF Insulation system to arrest heat radiation.
Operational philosophy for regular maintenance and monitoring line to check for any internal or external faults.
Loss Detection
Electronic alarms to detect breakages.
Additional monitoring through special patrols will take place.
A year-round monitoring program to check for presence of any contamination in soil, groundwater and nearby surface water bodies.
Conducting increased community awareness programs to assist in reporting of any issues.
Loss Containment
In the event of a leak being detected the operational control to immediately shut down or cut-off the tank from operation where it occurs.
Development of a comprehensive emergency response plan or handling leaks, fire etc. as well as natural calamities like landslides, earthquakes etc.
The emergency response personnel with appropriately trained and emergency control equipment for fire will be strategically located along the pipeline.
The environmental pollution during construction phase is purely temporary and localized except permanent change in local land-use and landscape at the proposed storage tanks. Environmental pollution in construction phase will be mainly due to site preparation, civil works, transportation, storage and handling of different kinds of materials including flammable / hazardous materials, construction worker‟s sanitation etc. The environmental impacts during construction period are considerably less and of shorter duration. However, they require due consideration and importance during project execution, and also wherever applicable detailed protocol / procedures shall be implemented to prevent / mitigate adverse impacts / occupational hazards.

Management of Air Environment
The Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) has set standards with regard to the ambient air
quality levels and emission levels. The particulate matter, PM10 (size ≤10 µm) levels in
Industrial, residential and rural area not to exceed 100 µg/m3. The standard for industrial areas
is 100 µg/m3. The vehicular emission standards for Heavy diesel driven vehicles as per Bharat
stage-III for
Hydrocarbons: 1.6 g/km hr; Carbon Monoxide: 2.1 g/km hr and Oxides of Nitrogen: 5 g/km hr
and PM: 0.1 g/Km/hr. These standards will have been met. (http://www.cpcb.nic.in/Vehicular
Exhaust.php).
Environmental pollution during construction phase will be mainly due to the activities involving
site preparation and construction. Preparation of site will involve movement of substantial
quantity of soil to fill the land. During dry weather conditions, it is necessary to control the dust
pollution created by leveling, grading and transportation activity.
Materials required for earth filling should be collected from the site. The transportation routes
should be selected such that movement of trucks through inhabited villages is reduced. It
should be ensured that construction vehicles are properly maintained to minimize smoke in
exhaust emissions. The vehicle maintenance area should be located in such a way that
contamination of surface soil/water by accidental spillage of oil/diesel will not take place and
dumping of waste oil should be strictly prohibited.
One or more of the following measures may be implemented to minimize impacts on air quality
during construction and operation of the project.
Face masks should be provided to prevent inhalations of dust particle.
It will be ensured that all the vehicles deployed for the project possess Pollution under Control (PUC) Certificate.
All vehicles will be properly maintained to minimize emissions of contaminants, for this necessary measure will be taken.
A schedule for the operation of vehicles will be established to minimize to the extent practicable, the time of operation of emission sources.
Water should be sprayed by high pressure water hoses during dust generating construction activities e.g. excavation, crushing/demolishing, concrete mixing, material handling etc. to suppress dust.
Wetting (sweeping or sprinkling) will be used, wherever practicable, to minimize dust dispersion.
As far as possible unleaded and Sulphur free petrol will be used for petrol driven vehicles.
Construction work should not be carried out during storm conditions.
Management of Water Environment
Construction equipment requiring minimum water for cooling and operation for optimum effectiveness will be chosen.
Steam curing of concrete will be done wherever possible.
High pressure hose will be used for cleaning and dust suppression purpose.
Drip and sprinkler system will be provided for spraying water in green belt.
Surface water quality
Rainy season will be avoided for cutting and filling of earth work.
Soil binding and fast growing plants should be grown around the construction site before commencement of construction activity to reduce soil erosion.
Temporary drainage channels should be provided for collection of water
Water used in washing and flushing pipelines should be discharged into storm water drains or natural drains after settling.
Adopting prudent soil erosion control measures to prevent water pollution.
Ground water quality
No discharge of construction wastes to ground water bodies will be allowed during construction.
Wells and bores (if made) should be covered properly to avoid contamination.
Water logging should be avoided by providing drainage system.
Management of Noise Environment
The Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) has set standards for ambient noise levels in
various activity zones. For industrial areas the daytime noise levels are not to exceed 75 dB (A)
and the night time levels 70 dB (A). In case of residential areas, the day and night standards
are 55 db and 45 dB (A) respectively. Suitable conditions will be incorporated in the
construction contract agreement, to ensure compliance of these standards.
The following measures may be adopted to minimize the impact of noise during construction
phase of the project:
Construction equipment generating minimum noise and vibration will be chosen.
Ear plugs and/muffs will be provided to construction workers working near the noise generating activities / machines / equipment.
Vehicles and construction equipment with internal combustion engines without proper silencer will not be allowed to operate.
Construction equipment meeting the norms specified by EP Act, 1986 will only be used.
Noise control equipment and baffling will be employed on generators especially when they are operated near the residential and sensitive areas.
Noise levels will be reduced by the use of adequate mufflers on all motorized equipment.

Efforts shall be made to ensure the maximum utilization of wastes generated.
During the operational phase, there will not be any significant impacts on various
environmental components. Hence, the following Management Plan is recommended to
mitigate adverse impacts during operation phase:
Management of Air Environment
No emission is envisaged during the storage & handling of LPG in the Mounded Bullets. LPG
will be imported in VLGCs at South Oil Jetty constructed by Paradip Refinery where space for
putting up Butane / Propane unloading facility is available. Imported Butane / Propane would
be transferred to LPG Import Facility through 2 nos. underground pipelines. Imported Butane
and Propane will be stored in aboveground mounded storage vessels and sent to market as
LPG after blending of Butane & Propane. The proposed LPG plant will be operated in a well
proven leak proof system, thus there will no source of emissions from the storage and blending
LPG marketing terminal.
To control fugitive emissions following measures are recommended:
Controlled emissions and provision of PPE for the workers.
Provision of mechanical seal in pumps.
Preventive maintenance of valves and other equipment.
Adequate measures for the minimization/prevention of the fugitive emission.
Regular maintenance of valves, pumps and other equipment to prevent leakage.
Regular periodic monitoring of work area to check the fugitive emission.
The unit will also provide adequate stack monitoring facilities for the periodic monitoring of the stack to verify the compliance of the stipulated norms.
Greenbelt development shall be implemented to mitigate impacts from fugitive emissions. About 33 % of the total area of site area will be developed for greenbelt. The air quality surveillance program will be undertaken for proposed and the program may be strengthened properly keeping in view the combined maximum impacts from post-project activities particularly in critical downwind directions.
Management of Noise Environment
To minimize the noise pollution the unit proposes the following noise control measures:
Manufacturers / suppliers of major noise generating machines / equipments like air compressors, feeder pumps, etc. shall be instructed to make required design modifications wherever possible before supply and installation to mitigate the noise generation and to comply with the national/ international regulatory norms with respect to noise generation.
Periodic maintenance of machinery and vehicles should be undertaken to reduce the noise impact.
Noise suppression measures such as enclosures, buffers and / or protective measures should be provided (wherever noise level is more than 75 dB (A).
Employees should be provided with Personal Protective Equipments like earplugs or earmuffs, wherever required.

119
The selection of any new plant equipment will be made with specification of low noise levels.
The green belt area will be developed within industrial premises and around the periphery to prevent the noise pollution in surrounding area.
Noise monitoring shall be carried out to check the efficacy of maintenance schedules undertaken to reduce noise levels and noise protection measures.
Good quality digital sound level meter will be in place to monitor noise level.
The sources of intermittent noise generating equipment (water pumping equipment, DG set, compressor etc.) will be provided with appropriate acoustic barriers so that the noise level within 1 m of these facilities when in operation will be less than 75 dB(A).
Implementation of greenbelt development / landscaping etc. will reduce noise impacts within the project premises to a great extent.
Management of Water Environment
Surface water quality
Waste water generated during processing of the plant will be passed through sedimentation
trap and the treated water will be used again in washing purpose. Zero liquid discharge will be
maintained and hence no contamination of surface water is envisaged.
Ground water quality
Since Zero liquid discharge will be maintained hence, no contamination of ground water is
envisaged. The mitigation measures for minimizing the impacts on water environment in
general includes following:
Optimum utilization of water resource.
Minimize waste generation and facilitate treatment.
Reuse/recycle and disposal.
Use of high-pressure hoses for cleaning the floor to reduce the amount of wastewater generated.
Advance controls and instrumentation for operations and control and leak detection techniques shall be implemented for this project.
The domestic sewage will be treated in existing STP.
Management of Land Environment
The management plan for this component of environment lays emphasis on development of
greenbelt comprising of appropriately selected species of shrubs and trees. It is recommended
that plantation be made on sites, road sides, around waste treatment units. Such a
development of greenbelt and plantation of shrubs and trees will not only significantly reduce or
mitigate adverse impacts due to aerosols and gaseous pollutants, noise, odor and nuisance
etc, but also, serve as shelter belts for avifauna, stabilize and improve soil permeability and
aesthetic environment.
Management of Solid Waste
Waste is an unavoidable byproduct of human activity. Economic development, rapid
urbanization & improved living standards have led to the increase in quantity & complexity of
the waste generated. Proper disposal of waste is essential for preservation and improvement of

6.10. Green Belt Development
An ideal green belt always imparts scenic beauty besides providing roosting/perching place for
birds and ground surface for naturally available reptiles, other flora and fauna species, to make
the area more natural and hazard free.
Total green belt area designated accounts to 33 % of the plot area. It is proposed to plant local
fast growing species for landscaping. Development of green belt with carefully selected native
plant species is of prime importance due to their capacity to reduce noise and air pollution
impacts by attenuation / assimilation and for providing food and habitat for local macro and
micro fauna. This not only overcomes the problem but also enhances the beauty of area that
will attract bird and insect species and by this way ecology of the area will maintain to a great
extent. For developing the greenbelt in and around proposed project sites care need to be
taken to plant the evergreen species. The planting of evergreen species may have certain
advantages that may reduce the environmental pollution.
Preparation of Greenbelt Plan
The proposed greenbelt development should be of a suitable width along the periphery of
project site area including unit complex, space between the units located within the project,
along the roads, storage areas, loading / unloading areas of products etc.
Greenbelt Area Details
Within project site
Green belt will be developed in 73212.26 Sq.m area of the total plot area. Saplings will be
planted on the periphery of the boundary of the plot.
Criteria for Selection of Species for Greenbelt
The plant species suitable for green belt development should be selected based on the
following characteristics.
It should have thick canopy cover
They should be perennial and evergreen
They should have high sink potential for pollutants
They should be efficient in absorbing pollutants if any without significantly affecting their growth.
Guidelines for Plantation
The plant species identified for greenbelt development should be planted using pitting
technique. The pit size should be either 45 cm × 45 cm × 45 cm or 60 cm × 60 cm × 60 cm.
bigger pit size is prepared on marginal and poor quality soil. Soil used for filling the pit should
be mixed with well decomposed farm yard manure for 45cm × 45 cm × 45 cm and 60 cm × 60
cm× 60 cm size pits respectively. The filling of soil should be completed at least 5-10 days
before actual plantation. Healthy sapling of identified species should be planted in each pit.
