PRESTIGE SMART CITY NOISE ENVIRONMENT


Prestige Smart City Blog

Noise levels will be monitored for the study area in order to establish base line status.
The anticipated noise sources from the proposed project are mainly due to generators,
construction equipments, pumps and due to vehicular movement. Sound pressure levels of
these identified sources will be collected and their cumulative impact on the noise environment
will be determined and proper mitigation measures will be adopted.

ANTICIPATED IMPACTS

There will be anticipated impacts on the surrounding Noise environment during both
the construction and operation stage of the proposed project. Following are the some of the
predicted impacts on the Noise environment, which will be discussed in detail in the EIA report.
  • Impacts due to construction equipments.
  • Impacts due to vehicular movements.
  • Impacts due to the usage of DG sets.

MITIGATION MEASURES

  • Use of noise absorbing materials in the design of building.
  • Use of noise barriers for point sources.
  • Proper maintenance of construction equipments and machinery.
  • Proper maintenance of automobiles.
  • Control over vibrations.
  • Landscape development

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. Provisi
