Well just for the sake of appreciation of the problem; let us have a look at the few visible impacts bypassed purposely in the Environmental Impact Assessment: At the construction phase and beyond ================================ – The transportation of coal and other raw materials – Impact of the CO2 and NO2 emissions of the tools, machineries and transportations – Sound pollution – Solid wastes, ecologically dangerous, admitted in the EIA report without a proper plan – Water pollution caused by tools, machineries and transportations – The known effect of dredging – The lost mangrove forest of Passur river Plant operation ============= – Daily Emission of 142 tons of SO2 and 85 tons NO2 – 79 Lakh tons of CO2 emission in a year – Drying up of Passur river – Water discharge : Passur River at a rate of 100 m3/hr – Rise in air temperature – the temperature of the discharged gas is calculated 125degree Celcius – 7 Lakh 50 thousand tons of fly ash and 2 Lakh ton bottom ash – Sound pollution: not quantified but admitted that it will be much higher than the permissible limit – Health hazards: The heavy metallic discharge will create Coal Transport during plant operation through rivers and canals ===================================================== – Coal carrier ships causing all sorts of damages to the ecosystem – Search light: destroying the night of the Bans and its natural inhabitants
