PRESTIGE SMART CITY BIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENT


PRESTIGE SMART CITY BANGALORE

This section mainly includes the detail study of the existing Flora and Fauna of the study
area. This part mainly comprises of the study of existing types of species, densities of species &
their distributions, rare and endangered species, commercially valued species etc. With the help
of this detail study, the impact of the proposed project on the biological environment will be
predicted and the proper mitigation measures will be adopted.

ANTICIPATED IMPACTS

The proposed project site consists of eucalyptus plantations with few coconut trees,
tamarind trees and jackfruit trees which will be cleared during site formation. However a
beautiful landscape will be developed where native species of trees will be planted.

SOCIO-ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT

Data on the demographic pattern, population density, educational facilities, medical
facilities, agriculture income, fuel, health status, transport and recreational facilities will be
collected and it will be analyzed for all the villages of the study area which will be depicted in
detail in the EIA report.

ANTICIPATED IMPACTS

There will be anticipated impacts on the surrounding Socio-Economic Environment
during both the construction and operation stage of the proposed project. Following are the
some of the predicted impacts on the Socio-Economic Environment, which will be discussed in
detail in the EIA report.
  • Impact on local employment.
  • Impact on population.
  • Impact on Archaeological heritage if any.
  • Impact on health, educational and recreational facilities

MITIGATION MEASURES

Proper mitigation measures and compensation will be given if there would be any
implication on the Socio-Economic environment due to the proposed project activities.

SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT

Solid wastes from construction sector can be categorized into two phase i.e., during
construction & during operation, which includes construction & demolition wastes, municipal
wastes, Hazardous and E - wastes generated from the proposed project. The quantity of solid
wastes generated and their management is projected in detail in the Form 1 & 1A report.

ANTICIPATED IMPACTS

There would be anticipated impacts on the surrounding environment due to the solid
wastes generated from the proposed project. Following are the some of the expected impacts
due to the proposed project.
  • Emissions from the wastes.
  • Insufficient collection and segregation.
  • Lack of onsite treatment.
  • Difficult quantification.
  • Top soil erosion.
  • Impacts on human health.

MITIGATION MEASURES

  • Good practices in construction & demolition waste management.
  • Proper municipal waste management will be followed. Organic waste converter willbe proposed within the project site in order to process the generated organic waste.
  • Proper Hazardous and E- waste management
The latest amended standards specified by CPCB for air, noise and water quality will be
considered for the study of environmental data within the study area, which are applicable for
this category of development. The proponents will consider these standards in order to ensure
Location: Bengaluru, Karnataka, India

RISK ASSESSMENT AND DISASTER MANAGEMENT PLAN (DMP) The Risk Assessment and DMP planned for the proposed project is as given below. Prestige Smart City - Risk and Disaster Management Plan Disaster is an unexpected event due sudden failure of the system, external threats, internal disturbances, earth quakes, fire and accidents. Thus an appropriate management plan shall be incorporated. Precautions Once the likelihood of the disaster is suspected, preventive actions should be undertaken by the project in-charge.  Conditional maintenance of equipments, materials and expertise for use during emergency.  The electrical systems shall be provided with automatic circuit breakers activated by over current.  Fire extinguishers are provided at pre-notified locations inside the buildings. Proper escape routes are planned and displayed in the public domain. Selected representatives are given proper training to guide others during fire accidents.  Period...

Prestige Smart City - The detailed EMP will be formulated to mitigate the residual impacts arises due to the development of the proposed project. Budgeting of the EMP will be included in the EIA report. In the EIA report, the planned EMP of the proposed project will include the following aspects of discussion in detail. Sewage treatment Plant (STP) of appropriate capacity will be designed for the wastewater generated from the proposed project and the wastewater will be treated to the tertiary level and after the treatment it will be reused for flushing of toilets, gardening etc. The treated sewage from the STP would be conforming to the stipulated standards. The spent oil from the DG sets will be stored in High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) drums in isolated covered facility and disposed off as per the Hazardous Waste  (Management & Handling) Rules 1989 (latest amendment 2008 and 2016). Spent oil from DG sets will be disposed off through registered recyclers only. Pro...
