27 Pre Feasibility Report of Newarikala Sand Quarry, Area Hect. Tehsil &District - Balod 5) PLANNING BRIEF (i) Planning Concept (type of industries, facilities, transportation etc) town and country Planning / Development authority classification: Sand has become a very important mineral for the expansion of the society, it is always in great demand but it is also true that an unsystematic and unlawful mining of sand leads to the destruction of the entire river system and finally effecting the environment severally. Hence removal of sand from the river/ nala bed must be with a systematic planning. Keeping this very important view in mind the removal of sand will be carried out with a planned way as mentioned in the documents. The transportation of the removed sand will be done through trucks, tractors only ensuring the compliances of all the environmental parameters. (ii) Population Projection: Since there will be hardly any influx of people from outside in the region, hence there will not by any impact on the population projection of the region accept the normal increase in population. (iii) Land Use Planning The notified area for sand removal is 5.50 ha. It is non forest, non agriculture area situated in Tandula river bed. Scanty small shrubs and bushes are on the bank of the river. (iv) Assessment of Infrastructure Demand (Physical & Social): Since there will not be any major influx of people from outside, in this region because of the project, no adverse effect on physical and social infrastructure like roads, electricity, water supplies etc are anticipated. 27

CHAPTER-4 Newarikala Sand Area: RESERVES Collector Balod notified the Newarikala sand area for the removal of sand and its marketing through the Gram panchayat Newarikala. Newarikala sand area is situated about 1.0 km from village Newarikala in Tandula River' Tandula River is a perennial source. It flows from south to north direction near village Newarikala. The river has a gentle slope towards north. The gentle slope of the area is the main reason for having sufficient quantity of sand available for removal. The average thickness of sand dvailable in the area is more than two meters. The sand available in the area is fine to medium-grained, good for use in construction purposes. Reserve of sand and its viable extraction: In general, the thickness of sand above water level is more than two meters. Only 1'S-meter column of the sand will be removed above the water level. The%easured reserve of sand above the flow course of water comes to about 1, 10,000 cubic meters. The calculation details are as under:- Total sand available is m2 x2m: l, 10,000 cubic meter Total extractable sand is 55000m2 x 1.5m: g cubic meter Mining Inspector Disn. Batsd tc.g$ 6l

37 MINING PLAN OF NEWARIKATA SAND QUARRY Area Ha. (On Tandula River), Gram Panchayat Newarikala, Village Newarikala, Tehsil & District - Balod (c.g.) Thus from measured sand reserve of about 1,10, cubic meter only about cubic meter sand per year will be viably extracted without disturbing and effecting the flow course of water level. Method of removal of Sand:, The removal of sand will be done by manually through local labors and its transportation will be through trucks/ tippers/tractors. The approach road up to the working site and ramp will be mode for the smooth shipment of sand from the site. During a year about cubic meter'of sand may only be removed for smooth transportation. +g&g&&& 's,n@rn"n"' Mining Inspector Disu. 6alsd (O.eq 6<
