1 Summary
Gujarat Maritime Board (GMB) had developed Pindara port in around 1950. GMB had developed
small wharf, road, stacking ground etc. as per the basic requirements. Accordingly to the statistics
available, 3166 tons of Bauxite was exported in the year 1956-57 and 9940 tons were exported to Kerala
and UK in the year 1968-79. Since then due to the development of Okha port on this coast line, the
development of Pindara port got neglected. However, the port was handling a limited quantity of Bauxite
with the help of country boats or small barges, mother ship waiting at the anchorage and was fetching a
small amount of revenue to GMB. The Pindara port is de-functioning for over the last 30 years, leaving
the original wharf & approached road to wharf road.
Gujarat Maritime Board vide letter no. GMB/pvt-ii/4(1)/15/61/3613 dated 18th June 2015, based on the
GMB resolution no. 3047 passed in its 241st meeting held on 28th may,2015, hereby grants M/s. Bombay
Mineral Limited, the licensee the right and authority for utilisation by restoration/construct of mechanised
conveying system for shipment of Bauxite & other cargo to convey/handle/transport of Bauxite mineral
cargo or any other cargo belongs to M/s BML or its associates into ship/barges nominated by the licensee
or its associates as per the terms and conditions prevailing under rules and regulations of Gujarat
Maritime Board at Pindhara Jetty-GMB.
M/s. Bombay Minerals Limited (BML) is one of the leading Bauxite mining companies from Devbhoomi
Dwarka (Jamnagar), District Gujarat. It is engaged in the mining of Bauxite and Value Added products of
Bauxite i.e. manufacturing of Calcined Bauxite. This project is for Restoration and Expansion of GMB
Pindara Jetty and Allied Facilities for Handling of Mineral Cargo of M/s. Bombay Minerals Limited,
Khambhalia (Gujarat). Project requires total area of 4.49 ha of which includes Marine Sanctuary area of
0.81 ha – Pindara Jetty area & its Eco-Sensitive Zone area of 3.68 ha. This project site is surrounded by
revenue lands of Virpur village of Kalyanpur Taluka of Devbhoomi Dwarka District. This project will be
equipped with all environmental protection measures.

2.5 Socio - Economic Impacts
2.5.1 Employment opportunities The manpower requirement for the proposed project is being expected to generate permanent jobs and
ancillary jobs for the operation and maintenance of plant. This will increase direct/indirect employment
opportunities and ancillary business development to greater extent for the local population. This phase is
expected to create a beneficial impact on the local socio-economic environment.
