Purpose of the Project:
To decongest the existing public transport systems and increase
mobility across the Region, MMRC through MMRC commissioned the
services of RITES to prepare a DPR and Environmental/Social Impact
Assessment study for the corridor of Colaba – Bandra – SEEPZ covering
total length of 33.508 km.
Funding Agency:
MMRC has planned to get fund from Japan International Cooperation
Agency (JICA) for the construction of Mumbai Metro Line III.
The scope of the study is framed as per JICA guidelines for
Environmental and Social considerations, 2011.

Salient Features of Project
7
Objectives and Scope of the Study
• Objective: facilitate the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development

Authority (MMRC) in the preparation EIA report as per requirement of
regulatory and funding agency.
• Scope: of EIA includes the impacts resulting from pre-construction,

construction and operation phases of Line I Metro corridor, Depot and
sub-stations.
• MMRC has planned to get fund from Japan International Cooperation

Agency (JICA) for the construction of Mumbai Metro Line III.

• The MoEF, Government of India, Notification of 14thSeptember 2006 and
its amendment dated 1st December 2009 enlist projects in Schedule that
require environmental clearance.
• However as per the said notification a metro project does not require
environmental clearance from MoEF.
• The scope of the study is framed as per JICA guidelines for
Environmental and Social considerations.
• The objectives of the JICA guidelines are to encourage Project proponents
to have appropriate consideration for environmental and social impacts, as
well as to ensure that JICA’s support for examination of environmental and
social considerations are conducted accordingly.

Scope of the Study
10
Environmental and Social Management and Monitoring
Plan (ESMMP)
• Construction Labour Management Plan

• Occupationnel Health and Safety Plan
• Emergency Response Plan
• Traffic Management Plan
11
Limitations
• The impact assessment study for the proposed project is largely

based on the available project.
• Information, discussion with local community and other
stakeholders and observations from various surveys and
investigations undertaken in the study area.
• Professional judgment and subjective interpretation of facts has
been applied for this study.
12
EIA Categorization System in JICA
• Category A - Projects are likely to have significant adverse impacts on

the environment and society. It includes projects in sensitive sectors or
with sensitive characteristics and projects located in or near sensitive
areas.
• Category B - Projects are ones with potential adverse impacts on the
environment and society less adverse than those of Category A projects.
• Category C - Projects have minimal or little adverse impacts on the
environment and society.

Approach and Methodology
The proposed alignment has been fixed based on Technical Feasibility, Socio-economic
acceptability, and Environmental sustainability for Metro Corridors. The
environmental study is carried out for the final alignment proposed by MMRC.
The basic concept is to ascertain the existing baseline conditions and assess
the impacts as a result of construction and operation of the project.
The impacts are assessed for various phases of project cycle namely
• Impacts due to project location
• Impacts due to project design
• Impacts due to project construction https://www.jica.go.jp/engli
• Impacts due to project operation. sh/our_work/social_enviro

Analysis of Alternatives
Alignment Planning
• Selection of an optional alignment is a multi-disciplinary decision, with
objectives which may conflict with one another.
• The selection of approach for resolving the problem is the multicriteria
analysis for the alternative to be analyzed.
40
Following parameters are taken into consideration:
• Catchment area
• Integration with other mass transit corridors
• Construction feasibility
• Environment and social aspects.
