9.4.1. Disposal Method Total quantity of wastewater generation will be 98 KLD (95 KLD from domestic, flushing and cooling and 3 KLD of ETP treated water). The generated sewage will be treated in in-house STP of capacity 120 KLD based on MBBR technology. The treated water will be reused for flushing, gardening and cooling Purposes.

10. Rain Water Harvesting The main source of ground water recharging in the study area is rainwater, which infiltrates into the ground through various lithological units present in the study area. Total 2 nos. of RWH harvesting structures will be there at site to recharge the groundwater( 1 already existing and 1 will be constructed). The runoff from the rooftop and storm water shall go to the recharge structures.

♦ Scheme for Ground Water Recharging The rainwater is diverted from the rooftop using rainwater pipes to the surface / underground drainage network. The entire complex is subdivided for recharging structures. The rainwater is diverted into the desilting tank to remove inorganic impurities and the outflow of the desilting tank is taken into the recharge well.

♦ Desilting Tank The desilting tanks are used to remove silt and other floating impurities from rainwater. Desilting tank is like an ordinary container having provision for the inflow, outflow and overflow. Apart from removing silt it holds the excess amount of water till it is soaked up by the recharge structure. The bottom of the tank will have unpaved surface (layers of coarse sand) to allow standing water to percolate into the soil. The rainwater collected in these desilting chambers will be utilized for horticulture.

♦ Recharge well The recharge well consists of percolation pits with boreholes in the middle of the pit. UPVC pipe perforated is lowered in the middle of the boreholes and the pit will be filled with gravel and pebbles in three layers consisting of boulders, gravel and coarse sand. The mouth of UPVC pipe will be protected to avoid silt getting into it. The depth of the bore will depend on the soil condition/water strata. The schematic diagram is enclosed. It should be therefore concluded that there is no significant impact on surface water quality & hydrology of the area. The proposed rainwater-harvesting scheme will stabilize the groundwater table in the area.

Hazardous Waste Management: -

Hazardous waste is a waste with properties that make it dangerous or potentially harmful to human health or the environment. The universe of hazardous wastes is large and diverse. Hazardous wastes can be liquids, solids, contained gases, or sludge. They can be the by-products of manufacturing processes or simply discarded commercial products, like cleaning fluids or pesticides. All hazardous wastes are required to be treated and disposed off in the prescribed manner.

The main objective is to promote safe management and use of hazardous substances including hazardous chemicals and hazardous wastes, in order to avoid damage to health and environment.

4.1 RISK ASSESSMENT

Risk is a potential that a chosen action or activity will lead to a loss of human or property.

Risk assessment is a step for Risk Management. Risk assessment is the determination of qualitative and quantitative value of risk related to a situation or hazard.

Hazard is a situation that poses a level of threat to life health or environment.

Risk assessment involves the following:

● Hazard Identification ● Vulnerability Analysis ● Risk Analysis ● Emergency Preparedness Plan

4.1.1 HAZARD IDENTIFICATION The project is an Office Complex and there may be following types of hazards:

4.1.1.1 Natural hazard:

Earthquake

Flooding

4.1.1.2 Man-made hazard:

Health Injuries

Fire & explosion

Electrical

Mechanical

Radiation

Thermal

Chemical

4.1.2 VULNERABILITY ANALYSES

This is an Office Complex hence staff & visitors are vulnerable to risks.

4.1.3 RISK ANALYSES

The risk is the likelihood of harmful effects big or small due to hazard, together with severity of harm suffered. Risk also depends on the number of people exposed to hazard.

Risk analysis provides severity of harm from a particular type of hazard.

4.1.3.1 Earthquake:

Expansion of “C3 Habitat Centre (Research Centre)” at Plot No. C-3, Qutub Institutional Area, New Delhi By M/s Habitat India

The project is located at seismic zone IV where earthquakes can occur from 4.0-7.0 Richter scale.

4.1.3.2 Flooding:

The project site is located in an area where no natural river or drainage exists. However, flooding can occur due to excess rain.

4.1.3.3 Health Injuries

1. Safety nets will be provided at appropriate levels and various shafts/ openings will be kept covered to prevent falls, slips, trips etc.

2. Necessary safety belts, helmets and eye-masks as required will be enforced at site. 3. Adequate guardrails will be provided to the staircases and common areas. 4. Adequate guardrails/ fences will be provided around the water storage spaces to prevent

drowning accidents. 5. Adequate protection/ fence will be provided around the excavated areas. 6. The machinery and the equipment will be regularly tested and maintained with the

specific emphasis against accidents failures. 7. The deployed Safety officers will ensure that the personnel/ labor will be kept at a safe

distance from working machinery to avoid accidents/ injuries due to toxic gases/ chemical/ noise.

8. Moving parts of various parts of machinery/ equipment will be properly guarded. 9. Rest rooms and first aid facilities will be made available for the workers.

4.1.3.4 Fire & Explosion:

Since it is an Office Complex, fire can occur due to electrical spark or gas leakage from kitchens.

Fire is mainly caused due to carelessness, short circuits, and malfunctioning of gas regulator, tube, and such related products.

4.1.3.5 Electrical:

The electrical current can pass to the floor & metals due to inadequate insulation or accidently.

4.1.3.6 Mechanical:

The mechanical fault that can cause the risk & hazard include the elevators.

4.1.3.7 Radiation:

Due to the use of wireless equipment there may be electromagnetic radiation.

4.1.3.8 Thermal:

Thermal heat can be generated from the D.G sets and the vehicles in the colony.

4.1.3.9 Chemical:

Chemical use in the Office Complex is limited to cleaning agents & medicines.

4.2 Disaster Management Plan Disaster Management provides the opportunity to plan, prepare and when needed enables a rational response in case of disasters/ mass casualty incidents (MCI). Disasters and mass casualties can cause great confusion and inefficiency in the hospitals. They can overwhelm the complex resources, staff, space and or supplies. Lack of any tangible plan to fall back upon in times of disaster leads to a situation where there are many sources of command, many leaders, and no concerted effort to solve the problem.

An internal risk management authority is formed which may undertake periodic evaluation of safety precautions to be followed by each department for hazard recognition with the following steps:

Building will be undertaken on a periodical basis to identify the measures taken to prevent/reduce the impact of the potential hazards.

All people will be encouraged to routinely assess all activities to identify potential hazards.

To make the proceedings easier, all the persons will embark upon disaster planning using a phase plan. The building emergency planning is divided into three phases:

4.2.1 Pre-disaster phase

Planning: Risk assessment and planning for preparedness will be done, the building plans will be formulated and then discussed in a suitable forum for approval.

The disaster manual: The building disaster plan shall be written down in a document form and copies of the same should be available in all the areas of the building.

Education and training: Regular training by suitable drills shall be undertaken in this phase.

4.2.2 Disaster Phase

Phase of activation: Alter and notification of emergency.

Activation of the chain of command in the building.

Operational phase: This is the phase in which the actual tackling of mass casualties will be performed according to the disaster/emergency plan.

Phase of deactivation: When the administration/ command of the building will be satisfied that the influx of mass casualty victims is not continuing to overwhelm the building facilities.

4.2.3 Post Disaster Phase

This is an important phase of disaster planning where the activities of the disaster/ emergency phase will be discussed and the inadequacies will be noted for future improvements.
