2 Intas Pharmaceuticals Pvt. Ltd., Valia-Bharuch 3.0 DESCRIPTION OF THE BASELINE ENVIRONMENTAL STATUS Study area & study Period Looking to the project activity and probable impact, baseline data collection for 3 month (except monsoon) within 5/10 km of the study area Maps of the study area clearly delineating the locations of various monitoring stations (air/water/noise/soil) Procedure and methodology of base line data collection Details Of Baseline Data Collection: Parameters Air Environment A) Micro Meteorological Wind speed, wind direction, ambient temperature and relative humidity. Sampling Location & Frequency 1 near project site OR from IMD for the nearest observatory center One hourly Continuous for three months Comments B) Ambient Air Quality PM2.5, PM10, SO2, NOx, NH3, HCl and VOC 24 hourly twice a week at 5 locations including project site (1 station in upwind direction & 2 stations in downwind direction & 1 in cross wind direction) during the study period. Based on the trial run of ISCST-3 model it is estimated the maximum GLC would take place within 500 meter. Water Environment Total Water Requirement: 182 KLD Industrial Wastewater Discharge: Zero Liquid Discharge Soil & Land Environment One grab sample from 5 locations (for both ground and surface sources) within the study area including project site. One grab sample from 5 locations during the study period within the study area including project site. The fresh water requirement will be met by borewell. Treated effluent from ETP will be completely reused to achieve zero effluent discharge. The hazardous waste will be handled properly, stored into adequate storage area and finally disposed off as per the GPCB Norms. Page 2

3 Intas Pharmaceuticals Ltd., Valia-Bharuch Parameters Noise Environment Sampling Location & Frequency Once during the study period for 24 hrs. at 5 locations within study area including project site Comments There is no major source of noise pollution from the project activity except D.G. set.
