CAG’s Comments on the Executive Summary, Form-1, TOR, Amended TOR, Draft EIA Report and Pre-Feasibility report for proposed Singareni collieries company Ltd, for establishment of 1 x 600 MW (Additional unit) of coal Based
CAG’s Comments on the Executive Summary, Form-1 and Pre-Feasibility report for proposed Thermal power station –II (2nd Expansion) project in Mudanai village in Virudhachalam Taluk, Cuddalore Districts, Tamil Nadu by M/s. Neyveli Lignite Corporation Limited.
IL&FS Tamil Nadu Power Company Limited (ITPCL), which runs a 1200 MW coal-based power plant in Cuddalore, is seeking to amend its Environmental Clearance (issued in May 2010), to change the nature of its coal- from fully imported Indonesian coal to a blend of 25 % lignite(from Neyveli Lignite Corporation's mines) and 75 % imported Indonesian coal. This proposal, which now involves transporting lignite by road passing through 29 villages, is being labelled 'modernisation'. Here are CAG's comments on why the proposed change- without a thorough EIA- is problematic.
This curriculum, a part of a series of educational materials developed by CAG, covers best practices a thermal power plant should follow for protecting the local environment. The curriculum seeks to demystify regulatory standards and apply simple techniques to the thermal power plant production cycle, to prevent and mitigate environmental damage.
Two years after commissioning a captive power plant with a multilayer-coated board project in Manapparai Taluk in Trichy, the TamilNadu Newsprint and Papers Limited has proposed an expansion. Here are the comments from CAG on the proposed expansion, submitted to the TNPCB as part of the Public Consultation process. In this, we highlight issues in the proposed wastewater discharge mechanism, its impact on groundwater and soil, and the provision of drinking water to nearby villages, which has been a contentious issue since the start of the plant.
Water Consumption pattern for the year 2016 - 17 is compared with the data from CTO (for the period 2016 -2021) and the actual quantity of water to be permitted under MoEF & CC, 2015 Notification.
