Vellore - Package -II Covering Zone 6 and 7
1. BACKGROUND
Vellore is located in the north part of Tamil Nadu and it is a prominent educational and
healthcare hub in the Country. City is also an industrial hub, and is a top exporter of
leather goods. Existing underground sewerage system cover the core (old) city area of
Vellore. At present sewerage system is provided only in the core area of the city, which is
covers 5.95 km2 area, about 6.5% of the total municipal area and about 11% of total
population. It is proposed provide sewerage system in the remaining areas of the city in
two phases (phase II and phase III). Phase II covers the area immediately surrounding
the core city, on the southern side of Palar River. Rest of the areas in the southern and
northern outskirts will be taken up for sewerage in phase III. Under the ADB funded
TNUFIP, it is proposed develop UGSS in phase II area, covering 26% area and 41%
population.
Project area comprises Alamelumangapuram, Sathuvachari, Shenpakkam, Konavattam,

Vasanthapuram, Velapadi covering 32 municipal wards (17 fully and 15 partly, out of
total 60 wards) in the southern part of Palar River in Vellore City, in Vellore District in the
northern part of Tamil Nadu State (Figure 1). Total population of subproject area is
261,881 (design base population of 2020) and has a geographical area of 23.04
square kilometer (km2).
At present, underground sewerage system is provided in core town area of Vellore Town
covering 24 wards out of the 48 wards of the erstwhile Vellore Municipality. This system
covers only about 6-7% of area and about 10-11% of population of the present
municipal corporation area consisting of total 60 wards. Sewage is collected via
underground sewers, conveyed to sewage treatment plant (STP) near Muthumandapam
at Old Parar Bridge. The STP process is based on activated sludge process (ASP), and
the capacity is 10.28 MLD. After treatment the treated wastewater is disposed into
Velavadi Eri (lake/pond) in Alamelumangapuram, which is used for agricultural purpose.
Page 1
Rest of the households depend on septic tanks and soak pits, and few households also
let the sewage directly into open drains. Existing open drains carry both sullage and
storm water. The sullage from the northern part of the town is collected from the main
drains along Arni road and Katpadi road which is then taken to sewage pumping station
site near the existing Palar water supply Head works by gravity and then taken across
Palar River to its northern bank by means of pumping and finally let into the sewage
farm of about 20 acres located at Virugampattu Village.
The sullage from the southern portion of the town is collected through drains/streams
channeling through Salavanpet, Velapadi, Suriyakulam which then runs parallel to the
railway line along the western corporation limit and bye-pass road and crosses the
Katpadi road and let into Palar river. Wastewater accumulates at many places, resulting
in breeding of mosquitoes and flies resulting in insanitary conditions. Indiscriminate
disposal of wastewater from the city directly into the River Palar lead to pollution of river.
In the present subproject, package-2 covers sewerage zones of 6 and 7 with sewerage
collection system up to 93.143 kilometre (km) length of sewers and 2979 brick
manholes and 1131 RCC manholes. This project was awarded to M/s. Subaya
Construction Company Limited, Chennai and work commenced on 1st of July 2019.
2. COMPLIANCE STATUS OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN

The Environmental Management Plan is required to manage environmental impacts
from the project. It is a site-specific plan developed to ensure that all necessary
measures are identified and implemented in order to protect the environment. Site-
specific Environmental Management Plan is formulated to mitigate significant adverse
environmental impacts that are identified and quantified in the process of baseline and
impact assessment. An Environmental Management Plan also ensures that the
resources are utilized to maximum extent, waste generation is minimized, residuals
treated adequately and by-products are recycled to the extent possible.

2.1. OBJECTIVES OF THE PROJECT
The aim of the proposed subproject is construction of sewage collection system up to

93.143-kilometre length of sewers and 2979 brick manholes and 1131 RCC manholes
to the extended areas of Vellore City Corporation – Phase-II – Package-2.
The Compliance Status of Environmental Management (EMP) observed as on 30th of
September 2020 during construction phase of sewage collection system up to 93.143-
kilometre length of sewers and 2979 brick manholes and 1131 RCC manholes to the
extended areas of Vellore City Corporation – Phase-II- Package-I, is summarized below in

3.1. Meteorology
The methodology adopted for monitoring surface observations was as per the
standard norms laid down by Bureau of Indian Standards (IS-8829) and Indian
Meteorological Department (IMD). The temperature of the project site was recorded in
the range of 340 to 380C on the sampling day in 30th of July 2020. The Relative humidity
ranged from 74% to 79%. The observations for Wind speed (9 km/h) and Wind direction
(SW) were collected during the monitoring period.
3.2. Ambient Air Quality

To assess the ambient air quality, Two air quality monitoring locations were
selected on the basis of wind direction and other meteorological conditions in project site
and one air quality monitoring location was selected at buffer zone area. Ambient air
quality (AAQ) samples were collected on basis of 24-hour sampling at each site 31st
August 2020. The samples were preserved and 33nalysed as per the standard methods
recommended by Central Pollution Control Board.
3.2.1 Methodology
As per revised norms for Ambient air quality standards prescribed by Ministry of
Environment & Forest vide Notification No. “Schedule VII” of Rule 3(3B) of Environment
(Protection) Seventh Amendment Rules, 2009 from MoEF notification dated 16
November 2009. Sampling of PM 10 and PM 2.5 particulate matter have been
performed using High volume respirable dust sampler (RSD) attached with additional
gaseous sampler. The instrument manufactured by M/s Ecotech Instruments Pvt. Ltd.
Gurgaon., which is designed and standardized as per USEPA norms. PM 10 and PM 2.5
particulate matter were collected by two different instruments. PM 10 particulate matter
was collected on filter paper by high volume respirable dust sampler equipped with
cyclone with size selective inlet for PM 10 and automatic volumetric flow control,
whereas, PM 2.5 particulate matter was collected on filter paper by filtration of
aerodynamic sizes with a size cut by impaction followed by cyclone separation in
monitoring instrument. PM 10 and PM 2.5 have been estimated by Gravimetric Method
(CPCB guidelines 2011).

OXIDES OF NITROGEN (Nox)

The average Nox concentrations at all eight sampling stations AAQ -1 and AAQ -2
at Vellore City Corporation range between 5.02 to 6.1 µg/m3.
CARBON MONOXIDE (CO)

Incomplete combustion of fuels produces carbon monoxide (CO). The short-term
health effects of CO exposure are dizziness, headache, nausea, and feeling of weakness,
mild incoherence, blurred vision, and brain fog etc. Samples of air were collected and
analysed for CO content and CO concentration were found to be below detectable limit at
all sampling stations.
3.3. Noise Environment

Noise levels were monitored hourly basis at two locations. N-1 and N-2 at Vellore
City Corporation were ambient noise monitoring locations. The details of sampling
location are presented in Table 5.

3.4.1. Methodology
For noise levels measured over a given period of time interval, it is possible to
describe features of noise using statistical quantities. This is calculated using the
percent of the time certain levels exceeds the time interval. The notation for the
statistical quantities of noise levels is described below:
Page 36
1. Hourly Leq values have been computed by integrating sound level meter.
2. Lday: As per the CPCB guidelines the day time limit is between 0800 to 2200
hours as outlined in the Ministry of Environment and Forest Notification S.O.
123€ dated 14/02/2000.
3. Lnight: As per the CPCB guidelines the night time limit is between 2300 to 0700
hours as outlined in the Ministry of Environment and Forest Notification S.O. 123
€ dated 14/02/2000.
Noise level monitoring was performed in 30th of July 2020. Noise level monitoring
was carried out continuously for 24-hours with one-hour interval starting at 0600 hrs to
0500 hrs next day. The noise levels were monitored on working days only. During each
hour Leq were directly computed by the instrument based on the sound pressure levels.
The observations for Ambient noise level measurement are given in Table 6.

Guidelines on preventive measures to contain spread of COVID-19 in

workplace settings
Basic preventive measures

The basic preventive measures include simple public health measures that
are to be followed to reduce the risk of infection with COVID-19. These
measures need to be observed by all (employees and visitors) at all times.
These include:
i. Physical distancing of at least one meter to be followed at all times.
ii. Use of face covers/masks to be mandatory.
iii. Practice frequent hand washing (for at least 40-60 seconds) even when
hands are not visibly dirty and use of alcohol-based hand sanitizers (for at
least 20 seconds). (REFERENCE- I)
Preventive measures for offices:
• Any staff and Labor reportedly suffering from flu-like illness should not
attend work and seek medical advice from local health authorities.
Such persons, if diagnosed as a suspect/confirmed case of COVID-19
should immediately inform the office authorities.
• Any staff requesting home quarantine based on the containment zone
activities in their residential areas should be permitted to work from
home.
DoPT guidelines with respect to organizing meetings, coordinating visitors

should strictly follow.
Measures to be taken on occurrence of case(s):
Despite taking the above measures, the occurrence of cases among the
employees working in the office cannot be ruled out. The following
measures will be taken in such circumstances:
Page 39
When one or few person(s) who share a room/close office space is/are
found to be suffering from symptoms suggestive of COVID-19:
Place the ill person in a room or area where they are isolated from others at
the workplace. Provide a mask/face cover till such time he/she is examined
by a doctor.
Report to concerned central/state health authorities. Helpline 1075 will be
immediately informed.
A risk assessment will be undertaken by the designated public health
authority (district RRT/treating physician) and accordingly further advice
shall be made regarding management of case, his/her contacts and need
for disinfection.
The suspect case if reporting very mild / mild symptoms on assessment by
the health authorities would be placed under home isolation,
Suspect case, if assessed by health authorities as moderate to severe,
The rapid response team of the concerned district shall be requisitioned and
will undertake the listing of contacts.
The necessary actions for contact tracing and disinfection of work place will
start once the report of the patient is received as positive. The report will be
expedited for this purpose.
If there are large numbers of contacts from a pre-
symptomatic/asymptomatic case, there could be a possibility of a cluster
emerging in workplace setting. Due to the close environment in workplace
settings this could even be a large cluster (>15 cases). The essential
principles of risk assessment, isolation, and quarantine of contacts, case
referral and management will remain the same. However, the scale of
arrangements will be higher.
Page 40
Management of contacts:
The contacts will be categorized into high and low risk contacts by the
District RRT as detailed in the REFERENCE II. The high-risk exposure
contacts shall be quarantined for 14 days.
The low risk exposure contacts shall continue to work and closely monitor
their health for next 14 days.
Closure of workplace
If there are one or two cases reported, the disinfection procedure will be
limited to places/areas visited by the patient in past 48 hrs. There is no
need to close the entire office building/halt work in other areas of the office
and work can be resumed after disinfection.
However, if there is a larger outbreak, the entire office will have to be closed
for 48 hours after thorough disinfection. All the staff will work from home, till
the building is adequately disinfected and is declared fit for re-occupation.
Disinfection Procedures in workplace Areas:
Detailed guidelines on the disinfection procedures in offices have already
been issued by the MOHFW are strictly followed.
Indoor areas including office spaces
Office spaces, including conference rooms should be cleaned every evening
after office hours or early in the morning before the rooms are occupied. If
contact surface is visibly dirty, it should be cleaned with soap and water
prior to disinfection. Prior to cleaning, the worker should wear disposable
rubber boots, gloves (heavy duty), and a triple layer mask.
Start cleaning from cleaner areas and proceed towards dirtier areas.
Page 41
All indoor areas such as entrance lobbies, corridors and staircases,

escalators, elevators, security guard booths, office rooms, meeting rooms,
cafeteria should be mopped with a disinfectant with 1% sodium
hypochlorite or phenolic disinfectants. The guidelines for preparing fresh
1% sodium hypochlorite solution is at REFERENCE I
High contact surfaces such elevator buttons, handrails / handles and
call buttons, escalator handrails, public counters, intercom systems,
equipment like telephone, printers/scanners, and other office machines
should be cleaned twice daily by mopping with a linen/absorbable cloth
soaked in 1% sodium hypochlorite. Frequently touched areas like table
tops, chair handles, pens, diary files, keyboards, mouse, mouse pad,
tea/coffee dispensing machines etc. should specially be cleaned.
For metallic surfaces like door handles, security locks, keys etc. 70%
alcohol can be used to wipe down surfaces where the use of bleach is not
suitable.
Hand sanitizing stations should be installed in office premises (especially
at the entry) and near high contact surfaces.
In a meeting/conference/office room, if someone is coughing,
without following respiratory etiquettes or mask, the areas around his/her
seat should be vacated and cleaned with 1% sodium hypochlorite.
Carefully clean the equipment used in cleaning at the end of the cleaning
process.
Remove PPE, discard in a disposable PPE in yellow disposable bag and
wash hands with soap and water.
In addition, all employees should consider cleaning the work area in front
of them with a disinfecting wipe prior to use and sit one seat further away
from others, if possible
Page 42
Outdoor areas
Outdoor areas have less risk then indoor areas due to air currents and
exposure to sunlight.
Disinfections of toilets
Sanitary workers must use separate set of cleaning equipment for
toilets (mops, nylon scrubber) and separate set for sink and commode).
They should always wear disposable protective gloves while cleaning a
toilet.

Risk profiling of contacts
Contacts are persons who have been exposed to a confirmed case anytime
between 2 days prior to onset of symptoms (in the positive case) and the
date of isolation (or maximum 14 days after the symptom onset in the case).
High-risk contact
• Touched body fluids of the patient (respiratory tract secretions, blood,
vomit, saliva, urine, faeces; e.g. being coughed on, touching used paper
tissues with a bare hand)
• Had direct physical contact with the body of the patient including physical
examination without PPE
• Touched or cleaned the linens, clothes, or dishes of the patient.
• Lives in the same household as the patient.
• Anyone in close proximity (within 1 meter) of the confirmed case without
precautions.
• Passengers in close proximity (within 1 meter) in a conveyance with a
symptomatic person who later tested positive for COVID-19 for more than 6
hours.
Low-risk contact
• Shared the same space (worked in same room/similar) but not having a
high-risk exposure to confirmed case of COVID-19.
• Travelled in same environment (bus/train/flight/any mode of transit) but
not having a high-risk exposure.
