3.2.1 TOPOGRAPHY
The elevation of the region varies between 13 meter and 284 meters above M.S.L. The slope gradient
towards south.
3.2.2 HYDROLOGY
Hydrology is the science that deals with the depletion and replenishment of water resources. It deals
with surface as well as ground water. The water below the water table is known as ground water and
water above the water table is known as soil moisture. The region above water table is divided in to
three zones, capillary zone, intermediate zone & soil zone. The distance about 0.3 to 3m depending
upon the texture of a zone is called a capillary zone. Extending down from the ground surface is the
soil zone, which is defined as being the depth of overburden that is penetrated by the roots of
vegetation through out this zone; the moisture content varies tremendously , ranging from a partly
saturated state during and immediately periods of heavy rains to a minimum content after a long
continued drought.
The region between the capillary zone and the soil zone is called the intermediate zone. Ground water
is located beneath the ground surface in soil pore spaced and in the geological formation. A formation
of rock/soil is called an aquifer, where it can yield a usable quantum of water. The depth at which soil
pore spaced becomes saturated with water is called the water table. Ground recharged from and
eventually flows to the strata naturally. Ground water is also often with drawn for agricultural and
industrial use by construction and operation extraction wells, results depletion of water table. Surface
precipitation, streams and river naturally replenish ground water, when this recharge reached the
water table. Ground water is a highly useful and abundant resources, but in arid or semi arid region
like Kutch region, the most evident problem that may result from this is a lowering of the water table
beyond the reach of existing wells.
Infiltration: Infiltration is the process by which water on the ground surface enters the soil. Infiltration
rate in soil science is a measure of the rate at which soil is able to absorb the rainfall or irrigation. It is
measured in mm/hr. the rate decreases as the soil becomes saturated. If the precipitation rate exceeds
the infiltration rate, runoff will usually unless there is some physical barrier.
The rate of infiltration is affected by soil characteristics including ease of entry, storage capacity and
transmission rate through the soil. The soil texture and structure, vegetation type and cover, water
content of the soil, soil temperature and rainfall intensity all play role in controlling infiltration rate
and capacity. For example coarse grained sandy soil have larger spaces between each grain and allow
water to infiltrate quickly, while in sandy clay soils like in Padana pore spaces are relatively smaller
than sandy soils but retention of water will be little more than sandy soils. Vegetation creates more
porous soils by protection the soil from pounding rainfall, which can close natural gaps between soil
REIA of Kutch Chemical Industries Ltd. Chapter 3 Baseline Environmental Status
April - 2010 119
particles and loosening soil through root action. This is why forested areas have the highest
infiltrations rate of any vegetative types.
The process of infiltration can continue only if there is room available for additional water at the soil
surface. The available volume for additional water in the soil depends on the porosity of the soil and
the rate at which previously infiltrated water can move away from the surface through the soil. The
maximum the rate at water can enter a soil in a given condition is the infiltration capacity. If the
arrival of the water at the soil surface is less than the infiltration capacity , all of the water will
infiltrate. If rainfall intensity at the soil surface occurs at a rate exceeds the infiltration capacity,
pounding begins and is followed by runoff over the ground surface.
It was found out that infiltration capacity rapidly declines the early part of a storm and then tends
towards an approximately constant value after a couple of hours for the remainder of the event.
Previously infiltrated water fill the available storage spaces and reduced the capillary forces drawing
water in to the pores. Clay particles in the soil may swell as they become wet and thereby reduced the
size of the pores. The hydrology details of the area have been mentioned below:

* Due to the variable rainfall, there is often not enough water for release in the canal networks and
therefore the irrigation scheme of Kutch utilize only 28% of their potential.

3.3 WATER QUALITY
Water is a vital essential commodity necessary for the survival of vegetation, animals, humans, and
for the proper balance of eco system itself. Hence it is necessary to study the quality of water in the
study area to find out if industrial activities in and around the area have caused any deterioration in
the environmental quality with respect to surface and ground water sources, so that the health and
growth of humans, flora, fauna and soil conditions are not affected adversely. This assessment may
also serve as a baseline to compare with the post establishment data for taking necessary corrective
measures if any of the parameter tends to exceed the prescribed limit.
Details of the water-sampling locations & their characteristics bas been represented below in Table
3.13 and Table 3.14 respectively.

The purpose of this study was to:
o Assess the water quality characteristics for critical parameters.
o Evaluate the impacts on agricultural productivity with respect to water quality, habitat conditions, recreational resources and aesthetics in the vicinity.
o Predict impact on water quality due to this project and its related activities.
Reconnaissance survey was undertaken and the monitoring locations were finalized based on
o Location of watercourses.
o Location of residential areas / likely impact areas.
o Areas likely to represent baseline conditions.
The samples were collected and analyzed as per the procedures specified in ‘Standard Methods for the
Examination of Water and Wastewater’ published by American Public Health Association (APHA).
Samples for chemical analysis were collected in polyethylene carboys. Samples collected for metal
content were acidified with 1 ml HNO3. Samples for bacteriological analysis were collected in
sterilized glass bottles. Selected physio-chemical and bacteriological parameters have been analyzed
for projecting the existing water quality status in the study area. Parameters like and pH, Color, Odour
& Taste were analyzed at the time of sample collection. The results obtained are shown in Table 3.4
below.
Most of the rivers in the kutch district non-perennial; water is available in monsoon season only.
Hence the water sample collected are of ground water only.

3.5.1 GENERAL OBSERVATIONS
Soil Electrical Conductivity (EC) assessment measures the soluble salts in the soil. EC of soil depends
on the porosity, water content, salinity level, cation exchange rate and temperature. The EC of the soil
was found 0.12 – 0.15 m.mhos/cm. This can be classified as neutral.
The cation exchange capacity of a soil refers to the amount of positively charged ions a soil can hold.
When dissolved in water, the nutrients are either positively charged or negatively charged. (e.g.
Calcium (Ca++), magnesium(Mg++), Potassium(K+), Sodium(Na+), Hydrogen(H+) and
ammonium(NH4+). Soils have a slight excess of negative charge sites due to the presence of organic
matter. Thus higher the organic matter content, higher is the CEC of the soil. The soil with high cation
exchange capacity will tend to hold onto the positively charged nutrients better than soil with a low
Cation exchange capacity. The low level of CEC value shows that the soil is devoid of organic matter.
Specific gravity of the soil comes to 1.98-2.512 with field moisture content is 10.61-13.21%.
Porosity refers to the propensity of a material to allow fluid to move through its pores or interstices.
Porosity is an important soil parameter for any project where flow of water through soil or rock is a
matter of concern. The porosity was found 35.62-46.81%.
3.6 NOISE MONITORING
Industrialization, urbanization, construction activities etc., have a direct bearing on the noise level of
the surrounding environment pertaining to such activities. Noise intensity beyond certain tolerable
limits may interfere with communication in work, apart from causing annoyance and health hazards.
Impact of noise on environment depends on various factors such as intensity distance from source,
time of exposure and nature of activities, machineries, traffic etc. Hence, it is necessary to measure the
ambient noise levels in order to determine the environmental impact so that appropriate measures
could be adopted if needed to abate noise pollution.
The main objective of noise monitoring in the study area is to establish the baseline noise levels, and
assess the impact of the total noise that is expected to be generated during the construction, and
operation of the proposed project activities. Noise monitoring has been undertaken for 24 hr at each
location.
Noise monitoring was carried out to establish ambient noise levels in the study area. The details of the
sampling stations are given below in the Table 3.22 and their locations area is shown in Map 3.1.

3.7 METEOROLOGY
For the interpretation of baseline conditions and also for predicting the incremental levels of air
pollutants the micro-meteorological data forms an indispensable part. The meteorological data
recorded during the monitoring period is a useful tool for the interpretation of the baseline condition
as well as for the input, to predictive models for air quality dispersion. Historical data on
meteorological parameters also plays an important role in identifying the general meteorological
status of the region. Site-specific data can be compared with the historical data in order to identify
changes, which may have taken place due to the various developments in the area. The data of
summer season has been collected and presented in the form of Windrose.
3.7.1 SITE SPECIFIC METEOROLOGICAL DATA

5.0 ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN
5.1 INTRODUCTION
The Environment Management Plan (EMP) is required to ensure sustainable development in
the area of the proposed project. Hence it needs to be an all encompassive plan for which the
industry, Government, Regulating agencies like Pollution Control Board working in the
region and more importantly the population of the area need to extend their co-operation and
contribution.
It has been evaluated that the project area will not be affected significantly with proposed
project. Mitigation measures at the source level and an overall Management Plan at the site
level are elicited so as to improve the surrounding environment.
The following mitigation measures are recommended in order to synchronize the economic
development of the project area with the environmental protection of the region. The
construction phase impacts are mostly short term, restricted to the plot area and not envisaged
on the larger scale. In the operational phase the environmental impacts are due to continuous
operation of the project, hence, the emphasis in the Environment Management Plan (EMP) is
to minimize such impacts. The emphasis on the EMP development is on the following:
o Mitigation measures for each of the activities causing the environmental impact
o Monitoring plans for checking activities and environmental parameters and monitoring responsibilities
o Role responsibilities and resource allocation for monitoring
Following sections describes the environment management plan proposed for construction
and operation phases.
5.2. MITIGATION MEASURES
Each of the activities during production phase is critically reviewed for suggestion of
mitigation measures. Based on this the Table 5.1 to 5.4 gives the mitigation measures for the
activities considered to be causing significant environmental impacts during production
phase.
In general the best housekeeping practices are incorporated in the design as well as in
production phase to reduce the short terms impacts due to the proposed activities.
