(II) CLEARANCE OF SITE FROM POLLUTION ANGLE

The board has considerably simplified the procedures for obtaining clearance of site from pollution angle and has decided to lay down the following procedures for Consent Management for obtaining Consent to establish (NOC) & consent to operate under the provisions of Water (Prevention & Control of Pollution) Act, 1974, the Air(Prevention & Control of Pollution) Act,1981, the HW management rules,1989 and Bio-medical Rules 2000 for effective enforcement of Environment Laws:-

(I) PROCEDURES FOR GRANT OF CONSENT TO ESTABLISH (NOC) :-

The industrial units are falling under 17 categories of highly polluting, 19 Category of polluting, additional polluting categories( as per categorization list ) & other large & medium industries shall apply to consent to establish (NOC) directly in the Head Office on the prescribed form along with necessary documents & requisite fee in duplicate & each has to be signed by authorized signatory avoid delay.
The necessary documents, which are required to be submitted along with NOC application, are as under:

i) Scheme for pollution control including E.T.P APCM & HW management if application
ii) Site plan/layout plan (not applicable in case of industry located in approved industrial area)
iii) Project report
iv) Memorandum of Articles/ Partnership deed
v) NOC fee
vi) Flow Chart & Manufacturing Process
vii) Affidavit in respect of column 12.5,12.6, & 12.7 of NOC From applicable.

The permission from the irrigation department for discharge of effluent into water bodies such as Rivers/Canals/Drains is required to those cases, which can adversely affect the quality of such water bodies. The NOC so granted shall be valid for period of two years to be extended for another one year at the discretion of the Board or till the time the unit starts its trial production whichever is earlier except for the stone crushers where it will be valid for 9 months as per notification no.S.O.126/C.A29/86/S.5 & 7197 dated 18th Dec, 1997 issued by Govt. of Haryana, Environment Deptt. However in case of specific projects like power plants, fertilizer Refineries etc. NOC shall be valid up to 4 years to extend for another one year at the discretion of the Board or till the time the unit is starts its trial production whichever is earlier. No extra NOC fee will be charged for extension of NOC.
Under the time bound grant of NOC the HSPCB has started issuing No objection Certificates from pollution angle to new industrial units except those where Public Hearing or Environment Management Plan is required within seven working days. The speedy NOC clearances would give a big boost to faster growth of industry in the State of Haryana. The objections, if any, will be conveyed to the applicants by obtaining a self-addressed envelop to eliminate the scope of misplacing their letters. In case the applicant fails to respond Board's queries then he will be given personal opportunity in the shape of hearing.

(ii) PROCEDURE REGARDING GRANT OF CONSENT TO OPERATE:

The first consent to operate shall be issued in two parts:
(a) Consent to operate for trial production
(b) Consent to Operate for regular production
The industrial units are apply for consent to operate for trial production to the concerned Regional Office of the Board on the prescribed form - B & I under the Water (Prevention & Control of Pollution) Act, 1974, the Air(Prevention & Control of Pollution) Act,1981 & the HW management rules,1989 respectively along with documents as per check list given at Annexure "D" in case the unit is covered under HW management rules,1989 it shall be simultaneously apply for the same.

(a) CONSENT OPERATE FOR TRIAL PRODUCTION:
The Regional Officer after verification shall issue consent to Operate for a period up to 1 to 3 months for trial production depending upon the stabilization time required for ETP/APCM installed for each category of industries. There is no requirement of analysis report for consent to operate for trial production as pollution Control Measures need some time for Stabilization .

(b)CONSENT TO OPERATE FOR REGULAR PRODUCTION:
After first consent, the new units are required to obtain consent to operate within the expiry period of first consent which shall be granted by the head office after thorough technical scrutiny. All the units are required to submit the consent the consent application complete in the all respect along with test report, balance sheet duly certified by the C.A (without depreciation value) affidavit of no charge of process & consent fee etc along with checklist of documents & cess return to the Regional officer:

The Ambient air quality report is required only in case of large & medium units of 17 categories of industries or where the specific complaints. in case water is used for cooling purposes & being recirculated completely there would be no need of test report. In case there is 25% or more increase in trade effluent discharge quantity then the corresponding figures of previous year, till the unit is required to deposit the fresh consent fee.
In case the industry is found to create conditions that generate any type of pollution in excess of the standards or if there is any objection from the surrounding community & if on verification. it is found that such objection has some substance even after grant of NOC/Consent by the Board; the Board shall be at liberty to revoke/withdraw the NOC/consent to operate already i9ssued & to take legal action under the provisions of the Water (Prevention & Control of Pollution) Act 1974 Air (Prevention & Control of Pollution) Act 1981 or Environment Protection act 1986 as considered appropriate.
