The application submitted by the project proponent has been scrutinized and it was observed that:
1. The industry has applied under red category (1081-Sewage Treatment Plants) and the same is not proper. The industry needs to apply under new category as per CPCB letter no. CP-18/1/2023-IPC-VI-HO-CPCB-HO dated 12.02.2025 regarding harmonization of classification of industrial sectors under Red, Orange, Green, White and Blue categories.
2. The detail filled in the application form is not proper i.e. PART-C: TECHNICAL INFORMATION REQUIRED FOR CONSENT UNDER WATER ACT, 1974.
3. The MC Chandigarh has not linked the fees with the online application form.
4. The MC Chandigarh has earlier obtained consent to operate for sludge = 18.73 MTD. However, the MC Chandigarh is now applying for sludge = 60 MTD, which requires clarification.
It is requested to submit the reply to the clarification within 02 days. Until then, the application will be treated as incomplete.
