Answer:

Ecology is the study of the relation and interactions between organisms and their

environment. It comprises the floral and faunal communities of an area. With changes in

environmental conditions, structure, density and composition of plants, animals also undergo

changes. For the proposed study, the study area has been identified as 10km around the

project site.

Himachal Pradesh is a predominantly mountainous state. Consequently, its climate is more

congenial to forests. It comprises four forest zones-subtropical, sub-temperate, wet temprate

and dry-temprate. The proposed mine area is situated in Kangra district, Himachal Pradesh.

The forests of the tract are well scattered on both the banks of river Beas. Scrub forests,

Bamboo forests, Chil forests, Scrub mixed with chil, sal and other Broad Leaved forests are

present which occur due to altitude, edaphic and biotic factors. Kangra forest consist various

type of vegetation and faunal biodiversity.

Objectives of the Study

For sustainable and eco-friendly mining project development, biological environment is

studied. As per EIA 2006 norms study are classified in 2 parts. One is core zone where

mining proposed and another part is buffer zone that’s 10 km radius of mine lease area.

The present study was undertaken with the following objectives:

 To assess the nature and distribution of vegetation in and around the project site;

 To assess the distribution of animal life spectra;

 To understand the productivity of the water bodies;

 To assess the biodiversity and to understand the resource potential; and

 To ascertain migratory routes of fauna and possibility of breeding grounds.

Methodology for Baseline Data Generation

To achieve the above objectives a detailed study of the area was undertaken in 10km radius

around proposed mine area. The different methods adopted were as follows:

 Generation of primary data by undertaking systematic ecological studies in the area;

 Discussion with local people so as to elicit information about local plants, animals and

birds.

The primary data was generated through:-

 Preparing a general checklist of all plants encountered in the study area. This would

indicate the diversity for plants.

 Determining the bird population of migratory and local birds by taking 10 random

readings at every Location;

 Observing mammals, amphibians and reptiles, noting their calls, droppings, burrows,

pugmarks and other signs.

Core zone: The study area of core zone consist river bed with rocks. There is no vegetation

present except some grasses.

Buffer zone: Buffer zone defined from mine lease area. It is 10km radius of ML area. There

are 6 forest namely Panjal Reseve Forest (3.67 Km, SE), Dadhoa protected forest (4.25 km,

NE), Sansarpur Reserve Forest (6.48 km, N), Chalan Protected Forest (7.33 Km, E),

Karanpur Reserve Forest (8.54 km, NW) and Pong Dam Bird Sanctuary (~9.0 km) shown in figure 1
