4.0 IMPACT ASSESSMENT
We have attempted to visualise the project induced changes in the existing status of wildlife habitats in order to predict the likely impacts of the project on wildlife values. This chapter identifies such impacts on the different components of the biological environment of the affected area. The significance of such impacts has largely been based rated in accordance with the uniqueness and/or fragility of a given habitat type, or the status of faunal/floral species likely to be impacted upon, as well as the duration and reversibility of the changes associated with project activities.

4.1 Impact Assessment of Mathura-Delhi-Ambala-Jalandhar Hookup Section:
As stated earlier this proposed hookup will connect the Panipat terminal with the existing Mathura-Jalandhar pipeline. The entire alignment passes through agricultural land. There is no impact on wildlife and their habitats due to the implementation of this project.
