## ANSWER

MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF ENVIRONMENT, FOREST AND CLIMATE CHANGE (SHRI KIRTI VARDHAN SINGH)

## (a) to (e):

Government  has  enacted  the  Water  (Prevention  and  Control  of  Pollution)  Act,  1974,  the  Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1981, and various provisions under The Environment (Protection) Act, 1986 for protection of environment and to prevent and control pollution arising from various sources.

The National Clean Air Programme (NCAP) has been launched in 2019 as a national level strategy to  reduce air pollution levels across  the country. Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) has identified  130  million  plus  and  Non-Attainment  cities  (cities  exceeding  National  Ambient  Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) consecutively for five years). These 130 cities included 48 cities with population  above  10  Lakhs,  42  cities  with  population  between  3-10  lakhs  and  40  cities  with population below 3 lakhs. City Specific Clean Air Action Plans have been prepared and rolled out for  implementation  in  these  130  non-attainment/million  plus  cities  to  improve  the  air  quality. 'PRANA' - Portal for Regulation of Air-pollution in Non-Attainment cities, has been developed as  a  portal  for  monitoring  implementation of National Clean Air Programme (NCAP) to track physical as well as financial progress of cities under NCAP. 95 cities out of 130 cities have shown improvement in air quality in terms of annual Particulate Matter (PM10) concentrations in FY 2023-24 in comparison to levels of FY 2017-18.

CPCB along  with  State  Pollution  Control  Boards  (SPCB)  and  Pollution  Control  Committees (PCC) are monitoring ambient air quality at 966 manual stations in 419 cities covering 28 States and  7  UTs  across  the  country  under  National  Ambient  Air  Quality  Monitoring  Programme (NAMP). There are 84 NAMP stations in Uttar Pradesh.

For prevention and control of water pollution, SPCBs/PCCs have been directed under Section 18(1)  (b)  of  the  Water  Act,  1974  to  direct  concerned  agencies  in  the  State/UT  to  develop infrastructure for sewage treatment.  In addition, CPCB in collaboration with SPCBs and PCCs has established a National Water Quality Monitoring Network (NWMP) in order to assess status of water quality of water resources and to facilitate for prevention and control of pollution in water bodies. Presently under NWMP water quality of aquatic resources is monitored at 4736 locations in the country in association with the SPCBs/ PCCs. Water Quality is being monitored at 163 locations in various water bodies in Uttar Pradesh. State-wise details of water quality monitoring network are provided in Annexure-I.

For the prevention of industrial pollution in the country, including smaller cities, the Government has taken following initiatives:

- i. Industry  specific  standards  for  emission  or  discharge  of  environmental  pollutants  for  79 industrial sectors under Schedule-I and general standards under Schedule-VI of E (P) Rules, 1986 have been notified.
- ii. The SPCBs/ PCCs issue consent to establish / consent to operate and authorization to the industries in the States. SPCBs / PCCs monitor the compliance of industrial effluent according to the prescribed norms. In case of non-compliance, action against industry is taken under provisions of the Water Act, 1974, the Air Act, and the E(P) Act, 1986.
- iii. CPCB has directed SPCBs / PCCs to inspect Red, Orange, and Green categories of industries at  a  minimum  inspection  frequency  of  6  months,  1  year  and  2  years  respectively  for verification  of  compliance  of  environmental  norms.  In  addition,  17  categories  of  high pollution  potential  industries,  common  waste  management  /treatment  facilities  such  as Sewage Treatment Plants (STPs), Common Effluent Treatment Plants (CETPs) and Common Bio-Medical  Waste  Treatment  Facility  (CBMWTFs)  are  inspected  on  quarterly  basis  by SPCBs / PCCs.
- iv. In addition to the regular monitoring through SPCBs/PCCs, CPCB also randomly inspect 17 categories  of  high  pollution  potential  industries  and  common  facilities  based  on  the exceedance  alerts  generated  through  Online  Continuous  Effluent  /  Emission  Monitoring Systems  (OCEMS)  installed  in  these  units.  In  case  of  non-compliance  with  respect  to environmental  norms,  action  is  taken  against  the  violators  as  per  the  provisions  of  the Environmental Acts. During January 2020 to January 2025, in the state of Uttar Pradesh 39 number of industries were inspected by CPCB, and no industry in Etah and Kasganj district was  among  these.  Out  of  these  industries,  16  units  were  found  non-complying  with environmental norms and suitable action has been taken against the non-complying industries. State wise number of the inspected units and action taken on non-complying industries during the last five years are given at Annexure -II.

During  2009,  CPCB  formulated  Comprehensive  Environmental  Pollution  Index  (CEPI),  to characterize  environmental  quality  at  industrial  area  following  algorithm  of  pollution  source, pathway and receptor. The CEPI framework was amended in April, 2016 and CPCB conducted environmental quality monitoring for evaluation of CEPI scores in 100 polluted industrial areas across  the  country  during  2018  with  co-ordination  of  SPCBs.  Concerned  SPCBs/PCCs  has prepared  Action  Plan  for  Critically  Polluted  Areas  (CEPI  Score  70  and  above)  and  Severely Polluted Areas (CEPI score between 60 to 70). CPCB has also developed CEPI portal to review the progress and implementation of action plan by SPCBs/PCCs.
