2. Revised CER based on the issues raised during the public hearing and emerged in the
social impact assessment covering the activities, timelines and budgetary requirement
should be submitted.
Action Plan for CER Activity
In order to carry out the CER activity it was decided that the proponent would provide basic
facilities in the area of safe drinking water, educational aid for the nearby Panchayat Schools
of Kurkumbh and Pandharewadi village, also the proponent had planned to install solar street
lights in consultation with the panchayat of Kurkumbh and Pandharewadi Villages.
During the survey it was observed that the schools lacked in basic facilities such as safe
drinking water, sanitation and other essential facilities such as computer, projector, etc and
also the villages lacked street lights which are essential for the villagers at the time of night.
Keeping in view the issues and problems raised in the public hearing by the villagers of
Kurkumbh and Pandharewadi, proponent plans to carry out analysis of ground water & soil
and to carry out health checkup in consultation with the panchayat of the above mentioned
villages. Thus, keeping the above factors in mind the CER for the proponent is presented in

Although Maharashtra is one of the affluent states in India with the highest per capita income, and
contributes over 15% of the country's national income and 40% of the tax revenues, having one of the
largest industrial economies, still the benefits of development have not reached in every corner of the
society. The availability well being of any individual can be ensured by providing timely supply of food,
primary health care and adequate education. Out of these food and education is receiving attention to
some extent from the government but that in the area of healthcare and medical supplies is yet a
challenge to for the state.
In order to bridge the gap of medical and health care facilities the proponent plans to carry out health
checkups for the villager of the above mentioned villages.
For the purpose of this as per the commitment around 2.2 % of the total project cost is planned to be
engaged in the social welfare. A road map for the same is provided in the above segment.

against the proposed green belt of 11,825 sqm area. The density of the plant to be increased as per
the guidelines of the Ministry. Selection of the Trees/Plant as per the CPCB guidelines.
Action Plan for Green Belt Development
Generally a thick green belt developed along the factory boundary helps to arrest/capture dust emissions
from escaping beyond the factory boundary and also to minimize the noise intensity propagating out of
the factory premises along with improving the aesthetics of project site.
Design and development of green belt
Design: Thick green belt will be developed along the boundary of the project plot as per the Standard
TOR prescribed by MoEF & CC for Synthetic Organic Chemical industries and the project specific
TOR granted by Expert Appraisal Committee (EAC) - Violation Committee during 1st EAC meeting dt.
22nd
June 2017 and additional compliances given by the Expert Appraisal Committee (EAC) - Violation
Committee in its 15th
meeting dtd 27th
November, 2018.
Area allocation for green belt: Total area under green belt will be 35124.3 sq. m., out of which there is
an existing developed green belt of area 7164.5 sq. m. and additionally 27959.8 sq . m of green belt will
be developed.
Area consideration for growth of individual tree: The area assumption for individual large/medium
size growth achieving tree is 2.6 m x 2.6 m = 6.76 sq. m. as per the Standard TOR prescribed by MoEF
& CC for Pesticides and Pesticide Specific Intermediates manufacturing industry.
Selection of plant species: The plants to be planted are selected considering the floral scenario as
observed in the study area during the baseline assessment study (preferably native fast growing, non
fruiting plants having large leaf area).

Damage Assessment –
A. Construction Phase -
The project proponent had obtained consent to establish from the MPCB dated 3rd
February, 1995
vide no – BO/U-BHIMA/C-168 dated 03.02.1995 for the manufacturing of chrysanthemic acid and
allethrolone to the quantity of 6 MT/M each. The investment of the project was less than 1 crore
during the establishment, which do not attract violation of EIA Notification, 1994. The
construction work of plant was started in March 2007 after obtaining water connection from
MIDC, Kurkumbh. but production was not started due to working capital problem. The first
consent to operate was obtained vide no – ROP/E-25/CC/PUNE/5/ dated 13.06.2008. The
construction materials were procured from local vendors from Patas and Varvand villages.
The major activities, ecological damage and mitigation measures are tabulated below –

Activities Site Specific
Impacts
Damage assessed Mitigation
1 Site
Construction
Air Pollution Based on the emission factor as per AP
42, Fifth Edition, Volume I, Chapter 13:
Miscellaneous Sources, the emission
factor was found to be 1.41 g/s.
Incremental studies were carried out for
understanding the dispersion of dust
during the construction phase. Figure
showing incremental concentration of
SPM (Construction Phase) is given in fig
no: 2 below. Based on the isopletes it
can be seen that the villages of
Kurkumbh and Pandharewdi may be
affected due to the dust emissions as
these villages are located in the
downwind direction. The predicted
incremental concentration of TPM at
Kurkumbh village would be 10 µg/m3
and Pandhare wadi would be 6 µg/m3.
Plantations to be done in the downward
direction of the MIDC in Pandharewadi and
Kurkumbh village.
Site was isolated by barricading the site
along the periphery for breaking the wind.
Health check up to be conducted for locals
of Firangaidevi Nagar.

Damage Assessment in operational phase –
Data Collection – For assessing the damage it was essential to identify the effects of various
pollutants namely stack emissions, process emissions, effluent, hazardous waste, noise on
various components of environment (air, water, soil, ecology & biodiversity, socio
economy.)
Analysis of ambient air, noise ground water, surface water, soil in the 10 km study area was
already done while collecting the baseline data. The findings showed that all the values are
within MPCB limits.
However being an insecticide manufacturing unit it was important to find whether there has
been any releases of effluents/chemicals in the nearby areas.
Thus. the soil samples were collected in the plot area and all 8 soil monitoring locations from
the study area for comprehensive analysis with respect to correlate the parameters with
product and raw materials used by M/s Shogun Organics Ltd was done to ascertain any
effluent releases or hazardous waste disposals in the area. After interacting with the technical
persons of project, site visits and detailed discussions with the FAE’s the EC is of the opinion
that damage assessment can be identified and quantified based on the analysis reports of soil
samples and ground water samples. The results for plot specific soil analysis and soil analysis
in study area are shown below.
Additionally, ground water at 2 locations have been analyzed for presence for raw materials
used and products manufactured by M/s Shogun Organics Ltd. The ground water monitoring
station are shown in the Table-3 below.

Comparison of LULC from google imagery pre construction and post construction
phase
As per the oldest available google imagery shown in Fig – 5 and 6, it can be seen that the
land cover is of open scrub type and there is no thick vegetation as such in the area
surrounding the project.
It is evident from the older google imagery dated 20.11.2017 that there was very less
vegetation on the plot which had to be cleared, some shrubs and grass were cleared off the
plot. The latest google imagery is shown in Fig no – 7
The latest google imagery suggests that the project proponent has carried out plantations in
the south direction and there is not much alteration in the tree cover as compared to the
earlier image.

Remediation Planning/EMP & Implementation
The study of baseline values (air, water, noise, soil, Ecology and biodiversity, socio economy) has
been done and identified and quantified the area of damage from the baseline study report and
interacting with the stakeholders, proponent and inputs received from FAE’s during the site visit.
The impact of operation is more on the industrial land within the factory premises compared to the
surrounding study area. The baseline values of air, water, noise, are well within the norms
prescribed by CPCB. Therefore, impact has been not quantified.
The industry is engaged in the manufacturing in technical grade insecticides and intermediates
which is highly polluting activity, the raw materials used for the manufacturing and the process
involved is hazardous in nature. The insecticides manufactured by the industry are highly toxic to
acquatic organisms. (fish and invertebrates), also if these chemicals come in contact with humans
by means of ingestion or inhalation or contact they can cause harm to humans. The impact of
violation is physically observed on the land of the company near ETP area and production area
where the contact of pollutants are frequently observed during the manufacturing process. The soil
sample analysis near the ETP and within the plant premises has been done to identify the
contamination due to handling of raw material and exposure to production activity. The analysis
reports are summarized in table no – 3
From the analysis reports it is observed that the soil is not contaminated, however during site visit
by FAE’s physically, the area of impact has been identified and quantified to assess the damage
control.
The ETP is located approx.20 meters from the Intermediate Plant – III and IV. The effluent which
is being generated from the manufacturing activity is diverted through closed pipeline up to ETP for
treatment. It is decided that 20 metres (l) x 1 metres (w) x 0.9 metres (d) soil area to be removed
and replaced with fresh soil and concreting the area as a part of damage control remediation plan.
The area quantified and cost of remediation is summarized as below –
