EIA report of Navi Mumbai airport

[Sonal Gadhave]

While Studying EIA as it is my our syllabus , I was bit curious to know how EIA of Airport are made. I searched few EIA reports on net and also EIA of Navi Mumbai Airport.(attached pdfs of EIA of Navi Mumbai Airport from net)  Few things about which I am confused are :

According to the report:

1) Ulwe river comes in Airport area (will will be diverted foe project purpose later)

2) The Elephanta Caves are at 13.5km from the project

3) Panvel Railway station is 1.5km from the project.

My doubts:

1) The distance between Ulwe and Elephanta Cave is with in 10 km (if i am not wrong).

2) Karnala Bird Sanctuary is in Panvel panvel 2 karnala map shows the fact how it is Gate of Sanctury is 13.5km from panvel railway station and not the sanctuary itself. 

One from above is Eco-sensitive zone and other is Historical monument.

So I wonder ,how the project has been passed?

These are the major things I observed. I am unaware of many things, so please if any one who can help me know how this 2 points are write or wrong. It would be helpful if you answer as soon as possible. 

Thank You.
