2.2 Brief description of the nature of the project It has been proposed to collect approximately 1,00,430 cum/year or 1,80,774 TPA. No mining activity will be undertaken during the monsoon season. So, the material will be replenished during the monsoon season every year.
Need for the project and its importance to the country and region The project lies on the bed of Yamuna River. The sediment in the form of river bed material (RBM) deposited in the last many years had changed the shape of the Yamuna bed from a valley to a raised land. Hence, it is necessary to remove the materials so that the stream gets channelized. Due to rapid infrastructure development in India, the demand of construction material has increased. To supply this demand, mining of sand is done. This project operation will provide employment directly and indirectly to the people residing in vicinity, thus improving the Socio-economic status of the area.
