INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW
N E W S
As per the latest IMF study, the total weigh of emerging markets in the
GDP of the world on a purchasing power parity basis has seen a sizeable shift.
It highlights how as against 51 % in 2005, the emerging economies now account
for close to 56 % of the global purchasing power GDP as per the latest survey.
And with the emerging economies growing at a faster rate than their developed
counterparts, there are every possibility that the their share goes up further
in the coming years. China may surpass the US over the next few years.
Politics and economics are very intricately connected. They tend to
influence each other in ways that could be very complex and far-reaching. The
prospects of the India’s economy have been seriously compromised due to
political corruption. High inflation, poor standard of living are to a great
extent a result of rampant corruption in the country. China on the other hand,
seems to be facing diametrically opposite challenge. American hedge fund
manager Jim Chanos has been keenly following the political and economic
development in the dragon economy and has figured out something that is quite
worrying. He is of the view that the Chinese economy could be heading toward
trouble on account of new Chinese President Xi Jingping’s very aggressive
anti-corruption drive. Chanos believes tat many things such as apartment sales,
luxury products, etc. were largely bought with dirty money. And it is now
beginning to impact consumption. This may indeed be bad news for an economy
that is struggling to transition from an investment-driven export-oriented
economy to a domestic consumption-driven economy.
A study published by Firstpost has revealed that asset classes like real
estate and equities were the biggest beneficiaries of the liberalization
policies. A firm called Ciane Analytics studied returns from assets
including equities, gold, fixed deposits, G-Secs and real estate since 1991.
Real estate outperformed every other asset classes during the 23-year period
with an annualized return of 20 % ! Equities came in second with annualized
return of 15.5 % ! However, while these returns may seem mouthwatering, the
fact is that the return from equities adjusted for inflation came down to just
7.1 %.
Some brief news are as under
. R-Power to buy Jaypee’s hydro assets
. Investors await justice in NSEL case
. India seeks MFN status from Pakistan ahead of meeting
. Ukrain’s clashes with rebels hinder MH17 crash investigation
. India exploring merger of state-owned hydro PSUs
..Higher costs weigh down profit growth to slowest in 9 quarters
..Wal-Mart to expand wholesale business in India
. GMR group moves to strengthen balance sheet
. Central Bank to sell 4 % stake to Life Insurance Corporation
. Tata Chemicals plans to raise up to Rs 10000 mn.

of 5,844 Equity Shares of Rs 10 each of the Company upon exercise of stock
options under the Company's Employee Stock Option Scheme, 2006.
These shares shall rank pari passu with the

provisions of Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Company.
Consequent to the above allotment, the equity
share capital of the Company stands increased to 9,18,34,338 equity shares of
Rs 10 each aggregating to Rs 91.83 crore.
GRASIM NET PROFIT
DOWN 20% ON LOWER REALISATION
MUMBAI, AUG 2:
Grasim Industries, part of the Aditya
Birla Group, reported a 20 per cent fall in net profit at Rs 487 crore in the
first quarter of this fiscal against Rs 610 crore registered in the same period
last year
Net sales were up 16 per cent at Rs
7,976 crore (Rs 6,893 crore).
Consolidated profit margins were hit
due to pricing pressure in both the viscose staple fibre and cement business
given the current over-capacity in these sectors, said the company.
Finance cost has gone up 33 per cent to
Rs 126 crore, while depreciation increased four per cent to Rs 358 crore. The
interest and depreciation cost went up with the commissioning of the various
projects, said the company. Tax charges were also higher due to lower exempt
income and recent changes in tax laws.
On a standalone basis the company’s net
profit was down 53 per cent at Rs 106 crore, while net sales were up 24 per
cent at Rs 1,424 crore.
VSF sales were up 11 per cent at 86,389
tonnes, while production grew two per cent to 89,827 tonnes. Revenue from the
VSF business was up 12 per cent at Rs 1,094 crore as realisations globally
remained subdued owing to overcapacity in China. Profit before interest and tax
was down 64 per cent at Rs 54 crore as margins dipped to seven per cent from 19
per cent in the same period last year.
The company has commissioned 77,000
tonnes of capacity at the greenfield VSF project at Vilayat in Gujarat. Work on
the remaining two lines of 44,000 tonnes per annum to manufacture specialty
fibre is in full swing. The remaining lines may go on trial in two months. Post
this expansion, Grasim's total VSF capacity will be 498,000 tonnes per annum.
The chemical business volume grew 33
per cent, led by the production ramp-up at the Vilayat plant. The epoxy plant
commissioned last year achieved break-even during this quarter. It will be
fully ramped up in the next two quarters, it said.
The contribution of UltraTech Cement to
the consolidated profit was down six per cent at Rs 378 crore (Rs 402 crore),
while that of Idea Cellular increased 55 per cent to Rs 37 crore.
The company’s consolidated debt was at
Rs 12,093 crore and net debt stood at Rs 6,167 crore.

company, announced its results for the quarter and year ended 31 March 2014.
During the 4th quarter, revenue grew by 10 per cent at Rs.8,419
crore (Rs.7,674 crore). Net profit after minority interest (before exceptional
item) is up by 11 per cent to Rs.679 crore (Rs.613 crore) and sequentially up
by 105 per cent from Rs.332 crore. There was an exceptional gain of Rs.204
crore on the sale of Grasim's stake in Alexandria Carbon Black and Thai Carbon
Black in quarter 4 last year.
Despite the prevailing economic slowdown during the year, volumes
have been augmented in all the businesses viz. VSF, Chemical and Cement, driven
by the commissioning of new capacities. While revenue increased by 5 per cent
at Rs.29,324 crore (Rs.27,909 crore), net profit for the year was Rs.2,072
crore as against Rs.2,500 crore (before exceptional item) in the last year. An
overcapacity in the VSF business globally and Cement Business in India has
impacted the realisations and profitability.
Dividend
The Board of Directors of Grasim has recommended the dividend of Rs.21 per
share. The total outflow on account of the dividend would be Rs.200 crore
(including corporate tax on dividend).
Viscose Staple Fibre
VSF volume continued its upward trend. For the
quarter, volumes crossed 99k tonnes, recording a growth of 4 per cent Y-o-Y.
Market development activities in the domestic markets led to an improvement in
the demand, supported by higher production at Harihar.
Demand supply imbalance and liquidity crunch in China impacted VSF
prices in global markets. The company was able to maintain its realisations,
supported by the rupee depreciation. However, the rupee depreciation has led to
pulp costs moving up. This has created pressure on margins.
Chemical Business
The Chemical Business reported a growth of 30 per cent in sales
volumes during the quarter led by an additional volume from the Vilayat plant.
PBIDT was up by 9 per cent at Rs.55 crore as against Rs.51 crore during the
corresponding quarter led by higher volumes and ECU realisation. The full
benefit of the Caustic and Epoxy plants at Chlor-Alkali complex, Vilayat
commissioned earlier will accrue in FY2014-15.
Greenfield project at Vilayat, Gujarat
Trial runs for the greenfield VSF project at
Vilayat commenced for line I in April 2014 and will be followed by line 2 very
shortly. These two lines have a capacity of 77K TPA out of total capacity of
120K TPA to be commissioned. Remaining 2 lines focusing on specialty fibre are
expected to be commissioned in the 2nd quarter of current year.
Cement subsidiary (UltraTech Cement)
The cement and clinker sales for the quarter at
13 mn. tonnes increased by 9 per cent, outperforming the sector. The quarter
witnessed pressure on input and logistic costs, given the hike in railway
freight and diesel prices. Net revenue for the quarter stood at Rs.6,316 crore
(Rs.5,821 crore). Net profit was up by 15 per cent at Rs.865 crore compared to
Rs.753 crore last year. On sequential basis, net profit has increased by 119
per cent from Rs.395 crore in previous quarter.
Cement capex
With the commissioning of the grinding capacity
(1.45 Mn. TPA) at Malkhed, Karnataka during the quarter, cement capacity rose
to 57 Mn. TPA.
Requisite approvals including sanction of respective High Courts and
Competition Commission of India have been obtained for the acquisition of the
Gujarat Cement unit of Jaypee Cement Corp. (4.8 Mn. MT). The scheme is now
subject to the approval of SEBI. The transaction is expected to be completed by
1st quarter of FY2014-15.
On commissioning of the brownfield projects currently under
implementation and the acquisition, total cement capacity of the company will
increase from 57 Mn. TPA to 70 Mn. TPA and clinker from 46.1 Mn. TPA to 51.8
Mn. TPA
Outlook
In the VSF sector, margins are likely to remain under pressure in the near term
due to overcapacity in China. The slowdown of new capacity additions in China
should lead to improvement in industry utilisation. With additional capacity
coming on stream, the company is well equipped to further consolidate its
leadership position in the industry.
In cement, the demand growth for the industry should gradually
recover to 8 per cent on improvement in the economic environment.

VISCOSE STAPLE FIBRE
The production of VSF improved by 2% over the preceding quarter with
completion of the expansion at Harihar plant. The Kharach unit operated at
lower capacity for 45 days as Govt. canal supplying water was under repair.
However, the new reservoir at Nagda, and better planning at Harihar, ensured
that there is no production loss.
Sales volume was 77,518 MT and Net Revenue stood at Rs.980 crore.
The VSF prices remained under pressure due to overcapacity in China. The
impact of the decline in prices was partly neutralized by depreciation of the
Indian rupee. On the cost front, the price of caustic and sulphur has
eased. However, lower realisations resulted in a decline in profits.
The pulp JVs have reported higher sales volumes. Pulp prices have
improved sequentially.
CEMENT SUBSIDIARY
(ULTRA TECH CEMENT)
The combined cement and clinker sales volume was 10.88 Mn. Tons. Net
Revenue stood at Rs.5,294 crore. The quarter witnessed an increasing trend in
logisitics and raw material cost, linked to increase in railway freight and
diesel prices. The benefit of softening in prices of imported coal was partly
offset by the depreciation of the rupee.
CHEMICAL BUSINESS
The Chemical business put in a satisfactory performance. With the
commissioning of the Caustic Soda plant at Vilayat (Gujarat) in May 2013, sales
volume increased by 9% to 72,028 MT. Volumes will further improve with the
gradual ramp up of capacity. ECU realizations saw a correction from the peak
level witnessed during FY 2013.
VSF AND CHEMICAL
CAPEX
The green field projects of VSF (120,000 TPA) and Epoxy (51,000 TPA) at
Vilayat are expected to go on stream in the 3rd quarter in a phased manner.
CEMENT CAPEX
The clinkerisation plant at Malkhed (Karnataka) of 3.30 Mn. TPA was
commissioned during July 2013 in addition to that of Rawan (Chattisgarh) of
3.30 Mn. TPA in March 2013. With this, the total clinker capacity stands
increased to 45.10 Mn. TPA. This will contribute to the volumes in a phased
manner.
Work on the 2.90 Mn. TPA brown field expansion at Shambhupura
(Rajasthan), has commenced.
After the commissioning of all the projects (including cement grinding units) currently
under implementation, Ultra Tech’s cement capacity will stand augmented to
64.45 Mn. TPA.
OUTLOOK
Given the prevailing global economic conditions, coupled with the surplus
capacity in China, the VSF industry continues to face a challenging environment
in the immediate term. In Cement, the demand is expected to grow by 6% in FY
2014 due to the slowdown in GDP growth rate. It has the potential to recover to
over 8% with the improvement in the economic environment.
Capacity expansions in VSF and Cement will provide additional volumes,
driving growth and further consolidate the Company’s leadership. This will
enable the Company to move forward rapidly, with the recovery in the market.
The Company will continue to focus on cost reduction measures, improving
asset productivity to maintain its position as the lowest cost producer and
expanding specialty products portfolio for sustained shareholder value
creation.

VISCOSE STAPLE FIBRE
(VSF)
Sluggishness in the global economy continued to impact the textile industry.
Fibre prices remained volatile due to the surplus VSF capacity in China and
high cotton inventory. Despite the difficult market conditions, sales volumes
for the quarter at 95,161 tonens were maintained. Volumes during the year,
however, grew by 9 per cent. Global VSF prices declined by 10 per cent on YoY
basis. Though pulp cost eased with decline in imported pulp prices, higher caustic
prices led to pressure on margins. The Chemical business, however, benefited
from the increase in caustic prices.
The performance of the company’s pulp JVs was adversely affected due to fall in realizations.
CEMENT SUBSIDIARY
(ULTRATECH CEMENT)
The combined cement and clinker sales for the quarter was 12.05 Mn. tonnes. Net
revenue stood at Rs. 58190.000 millions (Rs.56500.000 millions), up by 3 per
cent. Profit after Tax was Rs. 7530.000 millions (after providing for the
additional deferred tax liability of Rs.870.000 millions) as compared to Rs.
8720.000 millions in Q4 FY 2011-12.
The quarter witnessed continuing pressure on input and logistics costs, given the increase in railway freight and hike in diesel prices though there was some relief on account of the softening in prices of imported coal.
CHEMICAL BUSINESS
The Chemical business continued to perform well. ECU realizations remained
firm. Some improvement in chlorine prices was visible during the quarter. Both operating
profit and margins, improved.
VSF AND CHEMICAL
CAPEX
The brown field VSF expansion at Harihar (Karnataka), has been completed with
the commissioning of Phase II (18,250 TPA) in May 2013.
The green field project of VSF (120,000 TPA) at Vilayat (Gujarat) is nearing completion and is expected to go on stream in the 2nd quarter. Chemical plant (182,500 TPA) started commercial production in May 2013. There will be a gradual ramp up in capacity in the first half of FY 2013-14.
Work on epoxy project (Vilayat) is progressing, and is likely to be commissioned in September 2013.
A major revamp of the VSF plant at Nagda has started. This will be undertaken in phases, spread over the next two years.
CEMENT CAPEX
UltraTech is implementing projects across many of its locations. Of these, the
following projects have been commissioned during the quarter:
|
Clinkerisation plant at Rawan, Chhattisgarh |
3.30 Mn. TPA |
|
Grinding unit at Hotgi, Maharashtra |
1.55 Mn. TPA |
|
Increase in cement grinding capacity at Gujarat plant |
0.60 Mn. TPA |
|
Bulk terminal at Cochin, Kerala |
|
|
Wall care putty plant at Katni, Madhya Pradesh |
|
With the commissioning of these projects, the clinker capacity has increased to 41.80 Mn. TPA and that of cement to 53.90 Mn. TPA. The clinkerisation plant of 3.30 Mn. TPA in Karnataka is expected to go on stream in Q1 FY 2013-14.
UltraTech plans to expand its capacity at Aditya Cement Works in Rajasthan by 2.90 Mn. TPA including the setting up of two grinding units. The expansion envisages a capital outlay of Rs.20000.000 millions. The additional capacity is expected to be commissioned by March 2015.
With the commissioning of the existing projects under implementation and Aditya
expansion, UltraTech’s cement capacity will stand augmented to 64.45 Mn. TPA.
OUTLOOK
Given the prevailing global economic conditions, coupled with the surplus capacity
in China, the VSF industry is expected to remain under pressure in the short
term. In Cement, the demand is expected to grow by an average 8 per cent in the
long term with housing, infrastructure and allied spending being the key value
drivers. Industry capacity utilisation is likely to improve to 80 per cent in
FY 2016 as the pace of capacity addition will slow down. Cost pressures are
easing off with the decline in global commodity prices, particularly
energy.
Capacity expansions in VSF and capacities under implementation / unutilised in cement will provide additional volumes, driving growth and further consolidation of the company’s leadership. The company will utilise these capacities at the earliest in the present difficult situation. The company will continue to focus on cost reduction measures, improving asset productivity to maintain its position as the lowest costs producer and expanding specialty products portfolio for sustained shareholder value creation.
Cement stocks rally on price hike, Citi prefers Grasim
Jun 05, 2014,
Moneycontrol Bureau Shares of cement stocks
are rallying on price hikes ranging from 3-30 percent across most regions.
According to Citi, monsoon, loss burden in South-based companies and production
discipline may have been the reasons for the price hike. Stocks like Andhra
Cement , India Cements , Heidelberg Cements and
Dalmia Bharat are gaining most in the sector. Here is how pricing looks
like in different regions. After a correction in May, there was a price hike of
Rs10/bag to Rs 300 in north India while Andhra Pradesh and Chennai saw an
increase of Rs60/bag (to Rs 265) and around 14 percent (to Rs 330/bag)
respectively. In the eastern part of India, prices are stable at Rs 340-350/bag
over the last few months. Prices in Mumbai are largely unchanged (Rs 300/bag)
since February but fall is expected during the monsoon. However, Citi adds that
at the moment these are announcements and dealers are adopting a wait and watch
stance to see if the hikes go through while discounts continue to prevail.
“General indications point to a likely correction during the monsoon,” it said.
According to the brokerage, cement stocks have rallied on hope but the market
is now pricing in a very optimistic scenario even if demand recovers in line
with the average. Citi maintains sell rating on UltraTech Cement but
prefers Grasim on relative valuations.

GRASIM INDUSTRIES RESTARTS OPERATIONS AT CHEMICAL PLANT AT VILAYAT,
GUJARAT
Dec 26, 2013
With reference to the earlier announcement
dated October 07, 2013 regarding operations of the Company's Chemical Plant
were suspended due to unexpected floods affecting the plant/ power supply,
Grasim Industries Ltd has now informed BSE that the operations of the Chemical
Plant at Vilayat in Gujarat have resumed now. The Company have also commenced
operations of the downstream Epoxy Plant at Vilayat.The full capacity at both
the Plants will be achieved in a phased manner
GRASIM INDUSTRIES
ALLOTS EQUITY SHARES
Capital Market April 30, 2014
Under ESOS
Grasim Industries announced that the
Stakeholders' Relationship Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company
has approved allotment of 623 equity shares of Rs 10/- each of the Company upon
exercise of stock options under the Company's Employee Stock Option Scheme,
2006.
GRASIM INDUSTRIES
SOARS 10% AMID RALLY IN CEMENT STOCKS
Cement
stocks rallied on Monday on hopes that the new government's focus on
infrastructure will translate into higher demand and lead to an absorption of
the current overcapacity in the industry.
Four
of top five Nifty gainers were cement stocks on Monday. As of 10.50 a.m. Grasim
Industries led the index with 9.1 per cent gains followed by Ambuja Cements,
ACC and Ultra Tech Cement, all of which traded over 5 per cent higher.
Neeraj
Dewan, director at Quantum Securities told NDTV that cement is a play on
economic and infrastructure recovery. Companies with capacity will gain
advantage and there might be some more price hike going ahead. "There
might be short term corrections, but investors should get decent gains over
next 2-3 years," he added.
South
India-based cement companies hiked cement prices by 3-30 per cent last week.
Cement
demand, which grew at a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6 per cent over
the last four years until fiscal 2014, has likely bottomed out, analysts say.
Asia
Pacific focused brokerage CLSA maintained a buy on Grasim Industries with
target price at Rs. 4,900 per share. The
brokerage expects pick-up in cement business and says the stock is trading at excessive
discount despite an improvement in outlook. Grasim is a conviction buy for
CLSA.
Meanwhile,
the Sensex and Nifty hit another record high today. The Sensex scaled the
25,600 mark, while the Nifty traded near the 7,650 levels.
GRASIM'S VALUATION GAP
WITH ULTRATECH GIVES IT ROOM FOR APPRECIATION
The attractive gap in
valuations of holding company Grasim Industries and its subsidiary,
Ultra-Tech Cement, has caught the eye of investors. This resulted in a gain of
more than 11 per cent in Grasim's share price on Monday, the highest single-day
percentage gain over the past five years.
While UltraTech is valued at $195 per
tonne, the implied valuation of Grasim stands at $110 per
tonne, a discount of about 43 per cent for the value it has derived from
UltraTech's cement assets.
Analysts believe that
the expectation of improvement in cement utilisation from the current 70 per
cent in the next 2-3 years will trigger another leg of rerating of cement stocks. This could
possibly narrow down the valuation gap between Grasim and its 60 per cent-owned
subsidiary UltraTech.
Goldman Sachs,
in a report on cement industry on May 25, said, "We believe the current structure
of Grasimwas created in June 2010 and was not there in the previous upcycle
(FY04-08). Hence, the holding co history of the last four years is not
reflective of the holding company discount that would prevail in an
upcycle."

SPACE
CLSA UPGRADES GRASIM
INDUSTRIES' TARGET PRICE TO RS 4,900; HOPES OF RISE IN SECTOR DEMAND, PRICES
Cement Stocks gained up to 12 per cent on
Monday, led by hopes of a revival in demand amid firm prices. Aiding sentiment
was a report by international brokerage CLSA that had raised the target of Grasim Industries to Rs 4,900 and termed it a conviction buy.
“Grasim’s cement (69 per cent of FY14
earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation, or Ebitda) should
benefit from a pick–up in the sector utilisation rates driven by receding
capacity surpluses, with an expected demand pick-up. This should drive strong
earnings growth for its subsidiary UltraTech Cement,”
CLSA’s Vivek Maheshwari and Bhavesh Pravin Shah said.
“Margin pressure, with higher capex across
key businesses pulled down Grasim’s return on equity to 10 per cent in FY14.
The improvement in margins, with higher asset turns, should expand return
ratios to 14 per cent over three years. With peak capex behind, we expect
Grasim to generate rising free cash flow over FY16-17.” The upmove in cement
stocks has been triggered by a price rise reported from south-based companies,
which analysts say, can be sustained in case demand improves. Sunil Jain,
vice-president – equity research at Nirmal Bang,
says: “Capacity addition in the south will be lower compared to the others in
two to three years. So if the demand picks up, excess capacity in the south
will get absorbed, which will give some pricing power to players. Prices can
sustain at these levels and move up.”
Demand dynamics
Analysts expect the weakness in sector growth
to continue for six months. Kamlesh Bagmar at Prabhudas Lilladher says the
growth bottomed out in FY14, with the demand growth being the lowest since
FY02, below the gross domestic product growth.
“In demand, the worst is behind us, with
the easing of the sand-mining ban, clarity over the political uncertainty in
Andhra Pradesh, the second-largest consumer state, and pent-up demand likely to
drive growth. We expect gradual recovery in demand in FY15, with 7.2 per cent
compound annual growth over FY15E-17E,” says Ritesh Shah at Espirito Santo
Secutities.
Investing strategy
Analysts say one needs to be selective
while making a fresh commitment since most stocks have seen a healthy upside. A
look at Bloomberg data show many stocks are near or above their one-year target
prices. Shah of Espirito Santo Securities retains ‘buy’ on UltraTech and
‘neutral’ on Ambuja Cements.
“We have downgraded ACC to ‘neutral’ and Shree Cement to ‘sell’ on expensive
valuations. We revise downward our fair value (FV) for ACC due to continued
weakness in south. We expect UltraTech to grow on a par with the sector and it
remains our preferred pick in the large-cap space.” For Ambuja Cements, Piyush
Jain at Morningstar India pegs its FV at
Rs 262 a share. Sunil Jain prefers UltraTech, India Cements and Dalmia Bharat
in this space.
GRASIM INDUSTRIES: CEMENT SECTOR
Grasim ventured into cement production in the mid-1980s, setting
up its first cement plant at Jawad in Madhya Pradesh and since then has grown to
become a leading cement company in India. In July 2004, Grasim acquired a
majority stake and management control in UltraTech. One of the largest of its
kind in the cement sector, this acquisition catapulted the Aditya Birla Group
as one of the top cement manufacturers in India.
As a part of the restructuring process, the cement business has
been consolidated with its subsidiary UltraTech Cement Limited. In the first
phase, Grasim's cement business was demerged into Samruddhi Cement Limited, a
subsidiary of Grasim. In the second phase, Samruddhi Cement Limited has been
amalgamated with UltraTech Cement Limited w.e.f. 1 July 2010. The merger has
created the largest cement company in India and has provided a platform for
pursuing aggressive growth going forward. With a total capacity of 52 million
tpa, UltraTech Cement is a leading player in the cement industry in India.
Grasim's subsidiary UltraTech Cement has 11 integrated plants, 15
grinding units, five bulk terminals and 101 ready mix concrete (RMC) plants –
spanning India, UAE, Bahrain, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka. All the plants are
located close to sizeable limestone mines and are fully automated to ensure
consistent quality. All units use state-of-the-art equipment and technology and
are certified with ISO 9001 for quality systems and ISO 14001 for environment
management systems.
UltraTech is a leading RMC manufacturer in India. UltraTech is
also the largest producer of white cement in India, with a capacity of 560,000
tpa. Branded as Birla White, the white cement division manufactures world-class
white cement in a variety of textures and finishes.
UltraTech is a voluntary member of the Cement Sustainability
Initiative (CSI), which is the apex for the cement industry globally to
establish common measures, share best practices and exchange data relating to
environmental impact.
