there are 4 nos. of monitoring stations in
the buffer zone such as Kandaber village,
Garikalan Village, Dhenga village and
Kusumbha Village.

Further to ensure the work zone air quality

fugitive dust is being monitored in
different locations of the working zone.
The locations are Excavation area, Haul
road, Overburden Dump, Top-soil Dump,
Workshop, Drilling and Crusher area.
Monitoring data of the month of Oct, 23 to
March 2024 is attached as Annexure-46.

Apart from the above One no. CAAQMS

has been installed to monitor Ambient Air

Apart from the above approx. 2 Km fixed

It would very much relevant to mentioned

here that the 80 KL water tanker is being
used in the Pakri Barwadih coal mining
project which is unique in India.

Further arrangement has been made to

bring water from Eastern Quarry by
pipeline to Western Quarry for adequate
availability of water for dust suppression.

Also, water accumulated in, Eastern

Quarry is being used for dust suppression
in coal transport road through water
tankers and in the coal stock yard of CHP
area.

For controlling of the fugitive dust

emissions wet drilling with water injection
system is being in practice during drilling
operations.

Further to minimize the dust generation,

part of the coal transportation is being
done by trucks which is covered with the
tarpaulin. Also, to prevent the dust
generation due to plying of the trucks
regular water sprinkling is being done
along the transportation road.

Also, the coal has been transported in wet

condition from mine end to Banadag
Railway Siding. For wetting the coal there
are fog canon installed in the crusher

installed at the TP-10 to wet the coal or
minimize the dust generation. Also, green
wind screen/net shed has been erected
around the coal stock yard of TP-10.

Further at Banadag Railway Siding, Fixed

type 10 nos of water sprinkler with rain
gun has been installed on both side of the
Railway Siding. Also, regular water
sprinkling is being done through the water
tanker. Apart from the above to minimize
the dust propagation 2 Km long wind

used in the Pakri Barwadih coal mining
project which is unique in India.

Further arrangement has been made to

bring water from Eastern Quarry by
pipeline to Western Quarry for adequate
availability of water for dust suppression.

Also, water from Eastern Quarry is being

used for dust suppression in coal transport
road through water tankers and also in the
coal stock yard of CHP area.

For controlling of the fugitive dust

emissions wet drilling with water injection
system is being in practice during drilling
operations.

Further to minimize the dust generation,

part of the coal transportation is being
done by trucks which is covered with the
tarpaulin. Also, to prevent the dust
generation due to plying of the trucks
regular water sprinkling is being done
along the transportation road.

Also, the coal has been transported in wet

condition from mine end to Banadag
Railway Siding. For wetting the coal there
are fog canon installed in the crusher area
as well as coal stock yard of CHP.

Apart from the above the coal which is

transported through conveyor is done in
closed belt passes through 10 nos. of TPs
(Transfer Points) all the TP have water
injection system which regularly inject the
water in the coal. There are two nos. of
mist fog canon have been installed at the

generation. Also, green wind screen/net
shed has been erected around the coal
stock yard.

Further at the loading point i.e, at Banadag

Railway Siding, Fixed type of water
sprinkler with rain gun has been installed
on both side of the Railway Siding. Also,
regular water sprinkling is being done
through the water taker. Apart from the
above to minimize the dust propagation
