THE MINISTER OF STATE FOR MINES & MINERALS
(SMT. RITA VERMA)
(a): The Cross Country Conveyor Transportation Machine
was installed at Kargali Washery in September, 1986 with a
capital investment of Rs. 4 crores.
(b) : As CCCT was a part of Kargali Washery , no
separate accounting was made. However as per study
conducted by a team for the year 1998-99, the cost/tonne of
transportation of coal availability at that point of time
to CCCT was Rs. 44.76 per tonne, against the present cost of
transportation of Rs. 28.28 per tonne after closure of CCCT,
for Non-Coking Coal.
(c) to (e) : The conveyor structure and the other parts of the
CCCT are being dismantled and shall be used at suitable
places in the company as and when required. A Committee by
CCL on the use of CCCT conveyor system has suggested as
under:
(i) For development of the area as per the plan, the CCCT
is required to be removed to facilitate extension of Bokaro
OCP as the structure is falling under the mineable area.
(ii) After completion of Damodar River Diversion project and
sufficient coking coal availability for Kargali Washery,
CCCT may be used for transportation of coking coal to
Kargali Washery in its different alignment as per new
requirement.
