Executive Summary & Key Takeaways

Executive Summary: This notification from the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change amends a previous notification (S.O. 1533 E, dated September 14, 2006) regarding environmental clearances. It concerns the construction/expansion of projects and activities. The amendment substitutes item 7h in the Schedule, pertaining to Common Effluent Treatment Plants (CETPs). The notification takes effect on the date of its publication in the Official Gazette, December 21, 2018. Key Points / Main Content: * **Amendment Focus**: Concerns environmental clearance requirements for projects and activities as outlined in the Schedule of notification S.O. 1533 E. * **Common Effluent Treatment Plants (CETPs)**: Item 7h in the Schedule is substituted with revised entries. * **CETP Environmental Clearance Exemption**: Environmental clearance is not required for CETPs set up for projects or activities that themselves do not require environmental clearance. * **CETP Environmental Clearance Requirement**: If any member unit of an existing or proposed CETP produces a product requiring environmental clearance, then the CETP will need environmental clearance. Impact Analysis: Central Government: * Impact: The Central Government is responsible for enforcing the amended environmental clearance regulations for projects and activities, especially concerning CETPs. They must also consider the objections and suggestions received during the draft notification phase. * Action Required: Ensure the amended notification is implemented and followed by relevant authorities and project proponents. State Level Environment Impact Assessment Authority: * Impact: The State Level Environment Impact Assessment Authority will need to ensure the new guidelines concerning CETPs are followed when giving environmental clearance at the state level. * Action Required: Implement the changes to the environmental clearance process as directed by the central government. Project Proponents (Undertaking Construction of New Projects or Activities): * Impact: Project proponents planning to construct new projects or activities must adhere to the revised environmental clearance requirements for CETPs. * Action Required: Determine if the project will require a CETP, and if so, determine if it needs environmental clearance based on whether any of the member units produce products requiring environmental clearance. Existing Project Operators (Expansion or Modernisation of Existing Projects or Activities): * Impact: Existing project operators who are expanding or modernizing their projects must adhere to the revised environmental clearance requirements for CETPs. * Action Required: Review current CETP arrangements and determine if any changes are required based on the new environmental clearance requirements. Member Units of CETPs: * Impact: If they produce products requiring environmental clearance, the CETP to which they belong now requires environmental clearance. * Action Required: Disclose to the CETP if their activities trigger the environmental clearance requirement for the CETP.
