| What type of port is New Mangalore Port, and what is its significance in Karnataka? | a deep-water port and the only major port of Karnataka | Since then, NMPA has been functioning as the 9th Major Port and has fallen in line with other Major Port Trusts functioning in the country under the administrative control of Ministry of Ports, Shipping and Waterways (MoPSW). New Mangalore Port is a deep-water port and the only major port of Karnataka. The port is approached through a 7.5 km long channel with water depths -15.4 m CD in the outer channel and -15.1 m CD in the inner channel. | 248 | definition | 1.000 | New Mangalore Port is a deep-water port and the only major port of Karnataka. | 18 | page=18,block=7 | 0.850 | valid |
| What is the purpose of the water after being processed by the STP? | used for watering the green belt and also for water sprinkling in operational areas | This STP is enabled to receive domestic sewage of township and inside the Port as well. The treated water is used for watering the green belt and also for water sprinkling in operational areas. The Port has installed Slop Reception | 109 | definition | 1.000 | The treated water is used for watering the green belt and also for water sprinkling in operational areas. | 33 | page=33,block=7 | 0.850 | valid |
| What is the structure of a geotextile mattress? | made of 2 layers - a flat bottom layer and top layer consisting of 200mm thickness with filling of sand | Fig.5.21 shows the typical image slope protection example of jetty structure by using geo textile mattress. The geotextile Mattress is made of 2 layers - a flat bottom layer and top layer consisting of 200mm thickness with filling of sand. The geotextile mattress filled with slurry pockets is blanketed over the arrangement of dredging slope as per cross sections. | 135 | definition | 1.000 | The geotextile Mattress is made of 2 layers - a flat bottom layer and top layer consisting of 200mm thickness with filling of sand. | 66 | page=66,block=7 | 0.850 | valid |
| What activities are included in the process of data generation? | carried out covering Ambient Air Quality, Noise Levels, Water Quality, Land Use, Soil Quality, Ecology, Hydrology and Socio-economic features | The establishment of baseline data for different environmental components in the designated study area and at the project site has been conducted by field monitoring / investigation for baseline data generation. The data generation was carried out covering Ambient Air Quality, Noise Levels, Water Quality, Land Use, Soil Quality, Ecology, Hydrology and Socio-economic features. Besides, additional data/information regarding water availability, meteorology, ecology, demographic pattern, and socio-economic conditions were also collected from secondary sources. | 236 | definition | 1.000 | The data generation was carried out covering Ambient Air Quality, Noise Levels, Water Quality, Land Use, Soil Quality, Ecology, Hydrology and Socio-economic features. | 73 | page=73,block=7 | 0.850 | valid |
| What is the primary type of rock found in the Dakshina Kannada coast? | the granite gneiss which is popularly known as peninsular gneiss | Geologically Dakshina Kannada coast is of recent origin. The major rock type is the granite gneiss which is popularly known as peninsular gneiss. Laterities are abundant in the coastal regions. | 80 | definition | 1.000 | The major rock type is the granite gneiss which is popularly known as peninsular gneiss. | 77 | page=77,block=7 | 0.850 | valid |
| What were the two separate layers created for in the drainage study? | made separately for line drainage | Here the Drainage layer, which was generated after scanning the thematic manuscripts, was edited for line the errors. Two different layers were made separately for line drainage. Drainage order was given to all the drain lines in the layers. | 144 | definition | 1.000 | Two different layers were made separately for line drainage. | 79 | page=79,block=7 | 0.850 | valid |
| What is described as a highly effective and precise method for gathering data? | a powerful and accurate means of collecting data | Remote Sensing data is a classic source of information on natural resources for a region and provides a record of the continuum of resource status because of its repetitive coverage. Remote Sensing is a powerful and accurate means of collecting data. The study of satellite imagery gives an excellent opportunity to monitor the quantitative extent of vegetation cover as well as qualitative changes due to changes in environment. | 201 | definition | 1.000 | Remote Sensing is a powerful and accurate means of collecting data. | 82 | page=82,block=9 | 0.850 | valid |
| What was the purpose of the quantitative study near the project site? | carried out to understand the diversity of vegetation present near project site | Quantitative study was carried out to understand the diversity of vegetation present near project site. | 23 | definition | 1.000 | Quantitative study was carried out to understand the diversity of vegetation present near project site. | 176 | page=176,block=7 | 0.850 | valid |
| What is suggested when other mitigation approaches are not feasible or fully effective? | not possible or fully effective, then compensation, in some measure, for loss, damage and general intrusion might be appropriate | Abate at Receptor If an impact cannot be abated on-site then measures can be implemented off site - an example of this would be install double-glazed windows to minimize noise impact at a nearby residence Prevention Preventing negative environmental impacts Preservation Achieved by extending legal protection from any future actions Minimization Limiting reducing the degree, extent, magnitude or duration of adverse impacts Rehabilitation Repairing or enhancing affected resources such as natural habitats, water resources or human habitats Restoration Restoring the affected resources to an earlier State, typically back ground or pristine condition Compensation Creation, enhancement or protection of the same type of resource at another location to compensate for resources lost to development. Where other mitigation approaches are not possible or fully effective, then compensation, in some measure, for loss, damage and general intrusion might be appropriate. This could be ‗in kind‘, such as planting new woodland elsewhere to replace what has been lost. | 838 | definition | 1.000 | Where other mitigation approaches are not possible or fully effective, then compensation, in some measure, for loss, damage and general intrusion might be appropriate. | ||||
| What is the purpose of using traffic volume data? | used to understand the existing conditions of the road calculating the volume to the capacity ratios | Also, a driver perception survey was conducted to understand the driver behaviour using a questionnaire surveys. The traffic volume data was used to understand the existing conditions of the road calculating the volume to the capacity ratios. The present-day v/c ratio suggests that the traffic flows are occurring near to capacity at various junctions. | 141 | definition | 1.000 | The traffic volume data was used to understand the existing conditions of the road calculating the volume to the capacity ratios. | 266 | page=266,block=7 | 0.850 | valid |
