27 Annual Report : Third Party Monitoring Concept of Third party monitoring was first implemented in the State of Gujarat at industrial estate of Vapi which was later on extended to Ankleshwar and Sarigam regions. Judicial activism coupled with proactive support from the Government played very important and positive role for instituting third party monitoring.. What is Third Party Monitoring? It is a scheme in which the inspection and sampling of the industrial units, pumping sumps (wells) and manholes of the underground drainage system of the industrial cluster, CETP and streams passing in a designated area is carried out by the external agency (University/Engineering College/ Institute of high credibility & technical strength herein referred as Third Party Monitoring Agency) ascertained by the State Pollution Control Board for that area, in addition to regular monitoring carried out by the State Pollution Control Board as per the mandates under different Acts & Rules. 2. Reasons for implementation of third party monitoring in the state of Gujarat : (a) Third Party monitoring was thought for detailed monitoring of individual unit with following intentions: Sources of various pollutants contributing COD, BOD and Ammonical Nitrogen. Study of individual's present Effluent Treatment Scheme. Rigorous sampling to create the sound database of outlet quality contributed by the unit. Statistical Analysis such as mean, deviation from norms etc. To promote the concept of the segregation of the concentrated stream at source by individual industrial unit. (b) The scope of work consists of monitoring and sampling of individual unit, manholes of underground drainage system, pumping sumps (wells) of the underground drainage, CETP, streams passing through estate etc. The agency shall prepare a detailed comprehensive report along with statistical analysis, deviation analysis, performance analysis etc. (c) The methodology of sample collection is defined. 3. Advantage of Third Party Monitoring : (a) Increased frequency of Monitoring of both source and sink. (b) Independent and rigorous monitoring of individual units. 7

28 Gujarat Pollution Control Board (c) Can be implemented in the selective area/s as per requirements. (d) Different Agencies can be deployed in different areas - Independent modalities of monitoring can be derived as per need analysis. (e) Both Monitoring (By the Board and Third Party) can be planned in such a manner that they are in consonance and mutually strengthen overall monitoring resulting in to less stress on the regulatory authority Man power, vehicles etc. (f) Through Third Party Agency, Monitoring can be carried out at the level of manholes and pumping sumps (wells) of underground drainage system, which helps to investigate to reach up to the source of the pollutant through back trackling Real Time Vigilant Monitoring. (g) Generation of good database due to increased frequency of monitoring. (h) Third Party monitoring can play better role as facilitator than regulator. (I) Inputs from the Third Party Agency (Expert Credible Institute) are available in the form of observations along with the Report. (j) Statistical Analysis like trend analysis, deviation analysis etc, are available in ready form of which can be used as planning tool for the strategy framing and also helps in taking sound decision making. (k) Can help Board in implementation of the Action Plan Progress Monitoring and other on site monitoring aspects at individual level. (l) Targets of the Monitoring are manoeuvrable as per the requirement of the Board. (Not bound by the rigid rules) (m) Value addition in the performance of the Board. Based on the experiences at industrial cluster of Vapi and Ankleshwar, Gujarat, it can be concluded that well framed Third Party Monitoring Scheme with back up from legal frame work can aid to the State Pollution Control Boards in its functions. Sampling and analysis by third Party/Association/Educational Institute During the period under repot, numbers of water samples collected & analysed by the third party/association/educational Institute in Ankleshwar region are

29 Annual Report : Pollution Control Measures Installation of Effluent Treatment Plants During the period under report, 473 industrial units have installed effluent treatment plants. These include installation and commissioning of effluent treatment plants by various industries viz. thermal power plants, fertilisers, bulk drug, oil refineries, petrochemicals, pulp and paper, dye and dyes intermediates, etc. In addition to these industries, many units have also upgraded and modified their existing effluent treatment plants.

30 Gujarat Pollution Control Board 6.6. CETP (Common Effluent Treatment Plant) in Gujarat Operations and maintenance of effluent treatment plant for individual industries is challenging task. To overcome the issue of inadequate treatment of waste water, the concept of CETPs were introduced in early 990s. This was implemented in some of the GIDC estates and clusters of industries located in close proximity. This concept prompted industries individually to treat the wastewater to achieve inlets norms of the CETPs, and thus helped to reduce financial and manpower burden on individual industries.

33 Annual Report : Hazardous Wastes Facilities (A) Common Treatment Stabilization and Disposal Facility (Common TSDF) Gujarat was the first State to address hazardous wastes issue and brought about a novel concept of common Treatment Stabilization and Disposal Facility for cluster of industries. Development of TSDF by individual industries is commonly unviable due to small quantity of hazardous waste generated. GPCB has allowed TSDF imposing compliance of the guidelines issued by Central and State Level from time to time. As of now, State is having eight common Treatment Stabilization and Disposal facilities. Details are as under : Sr. No. Operator of TSDF Number of Member Industries Capacity of TSDF in MT.

41 Annual Report : Multiple Effect Evaporators (MEE) Multiple Effect Evaporator (MEE) widely used in process plant of the industry has now find its place as an important effluent treatment unit in last few years. Gujarat has widely accepted this concept and industry has now started segregating its concentrated stream of effluent for its treatment in MEE. This has significantly reduced the load on conventional effluent treatment plant and more importantly the Biological treatment process is made amenable resulting into reduction in parameters like BOD, COD and Ammonical Nitrogen etc. Pre treatment of concentrated effluent through stripper for removal of volatile organics followed by concentration in MEE and reduction of moisture through treatment like ATFD (Agitated Thin Film Dryer) has given excellent result in Dyes Intermediate, Bulk Drug Intermediate & Pesticides Intermediate Units. Gujarat now known for its strong cooperative base in the country has made leap frog by adopting this concept through cooperative model as Common Environment Infrastructure at industrial cluster level. Perhaps first of its kind in the country, a Common Multiple Effect Evaporator of 3 lac lit/day capacity will be commissioned soon at GIDC Naroda, Ahmedabad.

56 Gujarat Pollution Control Board 6.9 Bio-medical waste facilities in Gujarat : Medical care is vital for our life, health and well being. But the waste generated from medical activities can be hazardous, toxic and even lethal because of their high potential for diseases transmission. Its propensity to encourage growth of various pathogen and vectors, and its ability to contaminate other non-hazardous/non-toxic municipal waste, jeopardizes the efforts undertaken for overall municipal waste management. For prevention of these improper practices, the Government of India had formulated 'Bio-medical Waste (Management and Handling)Rules 998'. It was published by Govt. of India, under Sections 6, 8 & 25 of Environmental Protection Act, 986 on and appeared in official gazette of India on Section 4 specifies duty of occupier (generator) to take all steps to ensure that such waste is handled without any adverse effect to human health and the environment and Section 5 specifies the segregation in category and treatment methods to be adopted. As per the section 8 of the Bio-Medical waste (Management and Handling) Rules, 998, every occupier of an institution generating, collecting, receiving, storing, transporting, treating, disposing and/or handling bio-medical waste in any other manner, except such occupier of clinics, dispensaries, pathological laboratories, blood banks providing treatment/service to less than 000 patients/month, shall make an application in Form to the prescribed authority for grant of authorization. Authorization is granted for a period of 3 years, or the case may be, including an initial trial period of one year from the date of issue by the State Pollution Control boards. (GPCB).

82 Gujarat Pollution Control Board 6.5 Water Quality Monitoring Programmes. GEMS Project The Board assists the CPCB (Central Pollution Control Board) in implementing the GEMS (Global Environmental Monitoring System) project since 980. The scope of this project includes an assessment of the quality of water of the major rivers of the State, viz. Narmada, Tapi, Mahi and Sabarmati. As per the guidelines of the CPCB, 9 stations have been fixed, out of which 6 are for monitoring the quality of surface water and the rest for monitoring of ground water quality. The monitoring results under this project are submitted to the CPCB, New Delhi through the EDB system. 2. MINARS project On account of various discharge of wastewater in river, the quality is likely to be adversely affected. It is therefore, necessary to monitor the quality of the various river waters. This is a continuous project of previous years as approved by the CPCB and known as MINARS (Monitoring of Indian National Aquatic Resources System) Project. The Board is monitoring the water quality from 02 sampling station located on various rivers in the State. These rivers include Sabarmati, Meshwo, Anas, Mahi, Panam, Narmada, Damanganga, Kolak, Par, Tapi, Ambica etc. Under this project ground water quality and lake water quality are also monitored periodically. The ground water quality monitoring stations are located at Ahmedabad, Vadodara, Bhavnagar, Amreli, Junagadh, Rajkot, Surendranagar, Jamnagar, Bhuj, Palanpur, Mehsana, Siddhpur, Himmatnagar, Nadiad, Dahod, Godhra, Ankleshwar, Surat, Hazira, Valsad, and Vapi. The sampling stations included under the lake water quality project are located at Kankaria lake and Chandola lake in Ahmedabad; and Ajwa lake and Sursagar lake in Vadodara, Nalsarovar, Bindusarovar, Sahashtralingsarovar, Lakhota lake, Narshinhmehtasarovar, Nadiad lake, Ranjitsagar talav Halol, Thol tank. 72

230 Gujarat Pollution Control Board. Any other important matter dealt with by the State Board () Gujarat Pollution Control Board : An organisational difference (A) First ISO 400:2004 and ISO 900:2008 certified state Board ISO 900: 2008 is an international standard related to quality management system, applicable to any organization from all types of business sectors and activities, while ISO 400 is an internationally accepted standard for effective implementation of Environmental Management System (EMS). Gujarat Pollution Control Board is perhaps the first Pollution Control Board in the country which obtained the ISO-900 and ISO-400 certification for head office at Gandhinagar. Also out of 22 Regional Offices in the state 7 Regional Offices have obtained these certification. While for the remaining 5 regional offices the application process to obtain the ISO certification is on the edge of completion. The Board has obtained these certifications for second consecutive year. As a technical refreshment tool and continual improvement program board has organized foundation training as well as internal auditors training in consultation with National Institute of Training and Standardization for the boards' officials. The Gujarat Pollution Control Board is also committed towards continual improvement of boards' environmental performance in the way of implementation of ISO Certifications. Gujarat Pollution Control Board has also frame Environment policy and quality policy and also assesses effectiveness of all its activities and set annual improvement objective and targets and reviews these to ensure that these are being met at the individual unit of organization Implementing ISO 900 and ISO 400 gives the following advantages Better Credibility Enhanced status-image up-gradation Uniform procedure Proper documentation Improved work condition Better Awareness, increased motivation, higher efficiency, Prompt response to the stakeholders (B)Central Laboratory of GPCB - NABL Accreditated Laboratory National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories (NABL) is an autonomous body under the aegis of Department of Science & Technology, Government of India. NABL has been established with the objective to provide Government, Industry Associations and Industry in general with a scheme for thirdparty assessment of the quality and technical competence of testing and calibration 220

231 Annual Report : laboratories. Government of India has authorised NABL as the sole accreditation body for Testing and Calibration laboratories The Central laboratory of Gujarat Pollution Control Board is located at Gandhinagar. This laboratory provides facilities for analysis of samples collected by Regional Offices located at Ahmadabad, Gandhinagar, Mehsana, Palanpur, Himmatnagar, Vigilance Cell at Gandhinagar and other agencies. Besides this laboratory also involved in development of methods for analysis of water, wastewater, gases and hazardous waste samples etc. This Central Laboratory is accredited with National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratory (NABL) on for 45 chemical parameters and 6 biological parameters (Total-5). Perhaps GPCB is the only State Pollution Control Board in India which is accredited with NABL for 5 parameters at a time. The Board has another seven regional laboratories located at Vadodara, Surat, Vapi, Bharuch, Bhavanagar, Rajkot & Jamnagar and they are in the process of obtaining NABL accreditation. Recognition of a laboratory by an Accreditation body in accordance with international criteria has following advantages: Add more value to the quality of testing and accuracy. Increase of confidence in Testing/ Calibration data and personnel work performance. Better control of laboratory operations and feedback to laboratories as to whether they have sound Quality Assurance System and are technically competent. Potential increase in business due to enhanced customer confidence and satisfaction. Savings in terms of time and money due to reduction or elimination of the need for retesting of products. (C) Gujarat Pollution Control Board Now, a Recognized Research Centre of Gujarat Forensic Science University, Gandhinagar Gujarat Pollution Control Board is a knowledge based organization in which various Research and Development activities are carried out and promoted in the field of pollution control and environment protection.

Short-term and long-term courses in the field of Environment Forensic which are 22

232 Gujarat Pollution Control Board prevalent in developed western world will also be developed jointly to build core competency of the students of the state in this specialized subject. This will also lead to development of new era of employment in the field of environment. (2). Paryavaran Bhavan- Solar Building- The GPCB new building Govt. of Gujarat promotes the concept of green building. Gujarat Pollution Control Board has also adopted the concept of green building its new Head Office building situated at Gandhinagar. Construction of this office building is carried out by R&B Department, Gandhinagar. Some of the important features of this green building are 80 KW Solar systems through Solar Photo Volatic Cells are provided for generating electric power. The excess electric power generated, from this solar system is supplied into grid of Torrent Power Ltd. From water conservation point of view, two separate recharge wells have been provided by means of which rain water harvesting will be carried out. Approx Cu. Mt. of rain water is expected to be recharged into the underground aquifers per season/year. Building is so designed and constructed that natural light and cross ventilation at every floor of the premises can be obtained to the maximum extent. Thereby daily electric consumption will also be reduced to certain extent. Proper plantation all along the periphery of compound as well as with gardening and landscaping in the designated area of the building is carried out through the Forests Department. Electric appliances like Tube fittings (T-5), CFL Tubes, Fans, five star rating AC machines (40 nos.) etc. are provided having more power saving characteristics. The Board is also in the process of obtaining Green Building Certifications for this new Head Office (Paryavaran Bhavan). Registration ( no. NC2460) is made for the same with Indian Green Building Council (IGBC) in LEED-INDIA NC category. (3 )Flagship Project on e Governance : GPCB is a pioneer state in the country for making effective use of Information Technology through its dedicated portal for e-governance that not only to help GPCB for function as regulator but also as a facilitator and service providers to the industries and community for protection of environment with sustainable development. In India GPCB has carved a new path with optimization of available human resource that other SPCBs are following for () the transformation for good governance calls 222

233 Annual Report : for change of leadership role aimed at involving and empowering all those who are working in the Board.. (2) The environment related better pollution control and improved management using information technology. Web enabled software for smooth conduction of day-to-day operations at any State Pollution Control Board in India. Our main e Governance service that offered to the industries and community is implemented through replication in the state of Himachal pradesh, Andhra Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Madhy Pradesh, Goa. Some other states are also in the process of adopting the e-governance service. About the Project : It is developed by NIC (National Informatics Center) for the Gujarat Pollution Board, facilitates day to day operations at field office and industries in the state. It helps the board in implementation of Pollution & Environment Acts (air, water and hazardous waste). This project is branded as XGN. GPCB has developed module for acceptance, processing, finalization and issuance of CCA, CTE, BMW Authorization, Monitoring & Inspection Report, Water Cess, Complain etc. Recently board has started developing modules for online live tracking of transportation & disposal of hazardous waste, co processing of wastes in cement plant. Board is also developing module for Status through Mobile (SMS to 56070), application status, address & consent validity, defaulter status of industry. The core of XGN lies in the e-movement and online processing of e-files leading to stoppage of physical files. 85 percent of the online application for NOC/consent is cleared in principle before it actually physically lands at the field office. All Transactions, location of e-file details or even status of various returns are preserved in e-box. e-communication Module i.e. SMS, e-talk, e-message Box and timely alerts is the core of XGN. Also, there is effective usage of e-talk between various stake holders. Queries are in form of SMS and immediate reflection of replies results into speedier disposals The success program is amply vindicated in the accolades won by the GPCB (4 ) Green Movement through R&D: Knowing that Copper Phthalocyanine blue is a kind of high-level organic pigments, it produces ammonia gas as well as carbon dioxide gas during decomposition of urea, generating ammonium carbonate. On the other end Magnesium Carbonate manufacturing industries in Bhavnagar district are in search of cheaper raw material as an alternative of Soda Ash Sodium Carbonate. As a matter of concern for disposal problem from these generator - CPC industry and recycler - Magnesium Carbonate 223

234 Gujarat Pollution Control Board industry, a study has been conducted on the utilization of effluent of both industries by Regional Office as a initiative in R & D with re-use, reprocess and recycle options. This has carbonate rich effluent has attracted manufactures of Magnesium Carbonate due lower cost at the same time it is solving the problem of disposal of effluent of Phthalo cyanine blue industry of Ankleshwar and other part of Gujarat. Study of generation of Ammonium Chloride effluent from Magnesium chloride evolved that. It is not harmful to the soil as well to farmer as it is a good source of NITROGEN in Agriculture so inorganic salt of Ammonia is good ammonical fertilizer. 2. It can be directly used by the salt farm owners to further naturally evaporate the solution to get salt. This mixed salt finds wide use in soda ash, caustic soda and other salt-based industries. 3. Alternate method is to evaporate the dilute salt solution by means of jacketed evaporator. This installation has to be done along with ETP. This will be a costlier method then to directly sell the liquid to the salt farm. 4. One more alternate method is to recover ammonia from dilute ammonium chloride liquor by subjecting it to steam distillation after lime treatment. This technology is already in use by all Soda ash manufacturers. The above liquor containing ammonium chloride will become a make-up for soda ash industry. Further study has evolved that out of all option no. 4 - utilizing discharge liquor is much more attractive for subsequent recovery of ammonia in industries like soda ash where distillation units are already operational is a good alternative which is cost effective. Moreover effluent after recovery can be directly disposed into salt-pan, which enhances salt productivity and additional recovery of Gypsum in salt form. Thus, use of ammonium carbonate as a raw material for magnesium carbonate will be one step towards green environment. Hon. Minister Shri Mangubhai Patel, Forest and Environment has released trial permission letters for 6 CPC blue manufacturing industries and 6 Magnesium Carbonate manufacturing industries and one Soda ash industry on World Environment, 5thjune 20. (5) Co-processing of Hazardous / Non Hazardous Waste in Cement Kiln To sustain the Energy supply and conserve natural resources the concept of Utilization of Waste as supplementary resources or for energy recovery, or for reprocessing should be adopted & known as CO-PROCESSING. Co-processing provides an environmentally sound resources recovery option and does not hamper 224

235 Annual Report : waste reduction efforts. Co-processing is also in line with relevant international agreements namely the Basel and Stockholm conventions. Gujarat Pollution Control Board has taken various initiatives by providing the platform to the Hazardous waste generator / Facility operator and Cement/Steel Industry for the adoption of co-processing concept in a big way. GPCB has already conducted the series of meeting, workshop and awareness programme to boost up the Co-processing of Hazardous waste in the State with all stake Holders. GPCB has provided necessary information on Waste availability and guidance to the concern stake holders for the betterment of Environment within State. In furtherance, GPCB has also drawn attention especially towards Municipal Corporations / Local bodies and State level meetings are organized to boost up the coprocessing of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW / RDF) in Cement Kilns. Considering State is having leading Cement Manufacturers who are capable enough to co-process waste as alternate fuel / raw material to reinforce its competitiveness and at the same time contribute to solutions to some of society's waste problem in a way which valorises the waste and is beneficial to the Environment. In order to fulfil social commitment towards sustainability by reducing waste as resource thereby reducing the Green House Gas Emission in respect of co2 considering open burning of MSW. Benefit at a Glance : Co-processing is a potential pathway for cement /power/steel sectors to use of waste as alternative fuel / raw material which provide numerous environmental benefits such as:- Reduction in use of mined natural materials such as limestone, bauxite, Iron ore etc and non-renewable fossil such as coal. This also reduces the environmental impacts associated with mining of these natural materials. Contributes towards a lowering of emissions such as greenhouse gases by replacing the use of fossil fuels with materials that would otherwise have to be incinerated with corresponding emissions and final residues. Reduction in requirement of land required for land fill option thereby reducing the emissions and also liability associated with the landfills. Maximizes the recovery of resources present in the waste. All the energy is used directly in the kiln for clinker and the non-combustible part of the waste becomes part of clinker. Reduce the economical burden on the industry along with savings of natural resources as waste gets consumed for energy recovery and as supplementary 225

236 Gujarat Pollution Control Board resource. Reduce the Health hazard associated with disposal of Hazardous waste by other pathways. Helps Society for sustainable Eco-Environmental development by using waste as supplementary resource & alternative fuel. Initiatives and Action taken by GPCB to Boost up 4R concept in the state by means of Co-processing : Gujarat pollution control Board has granted Authorization / permission to M/s Ambuja Cement, M/s Ultratech Cement, M/s Sanghi Cement Ltd. and M/s. Lafarge India (P) limited Chhattisgarh for co-processing of different type of Hazardous Wastes in line with regular permission accorded by CPCB, Delhi. Approximately up to March MT of Hazardous and Non Hazardous waste have been co-processed in the cement Industries. ( 6 ) E-waste management : E-waste is one of the fastest growing waste streams today and is growing almost three times the rate of municipal waste, globally. E-waste is highly complex waste to handle due to its varying constituents, it also contains precious metals and many rare materials, which are highly valuable. As per current estimate in India generates about 4,00,000 tonnes of e-waste annually almost 90% of the available E-waste continues to be recycled in the informal sector. E-waste (Management & Handling) Rules-20 shall came into force from st May 202 and applicable to every Producer, Consumer or Bulk Consumer involved in the manufacture, sale, purchase and processing of electrical and electronic equipment as specified in Schedule I. Collection Centre, Dismantler and Recycler of e-waste, Bulk 226

237 Annual Report : The break-up of Hazardous / Non Hazardous Waste Co-Processed in different Cement Plants in the State are us under. Name of Cement Plant Waste Co-processed in Various Cement Plants in Metric Tons Ambuja Cement Limited Kodinar Junagadh Ultratech Cement Limited - Kovaya Ultratech Cement limited Narmada - Jafrabad Gujarat Sidhee Cement Limited TOTAL * The variance of waste is due to feeding problem of low bulk density material like plastic waste/ MSW etc. and less availability of agricultural waste. Beside this Gujarat Pollution Control Board has also accorded Interstate NOC for Co-processing of Hazardous Waste at Lafarge Cement Limited Chhatishgarh from M/s. Gujarat Narmada valley Fertilizers Corporation Limited, Bharuch and M/s. Gujarat Enviro Projects Infrastructures Limited, Surat for which regular permission is accorded by CPCB and around MT of Waste is Co- Processed in the Cement Plant. 227

238 Gujarat Pollution Control Board consumers etc. has to play important role for providing Environmental solutions From Inception to Completion for sustainable development. Beside this, GPCB has already taken initiative and granted total four registration for recycling of E-waste in Gujarat as follows under Hazardous waste (M,H&TM) Rules The details of E-waste recycling facilities located in Gujarat as under. ECS Environment Ltd.,2 Garden Road, Opp. Auda Garden, Sindhubhawan,Off. C.G.Road, Pakwan Circle, 5000 MTA Pruthvi Recyclers Pvt.Ltd., Golden Ind. Area, Plot no. 3, Kothariya Ind.

Bhiloda Dist. 602 MTA ( 7 ) Odor Control Odour A quality of something that stimulates the olfactory organ usually obnoxious in nature and creates nuisance is perceived as Air Pollution. In industrial air pollution, it is an important issue and requires due attention. The odour is either continuous or in the form of puffs lasting for few minutes. It may be from the point sources or area sources. In chemical industrial sectors pesticides and bulk drug manufacturing units have high potential of the odour generation. In these sectors, the sources of generation are from raw material/product / intermediates characteristics, Process reaction etc. H2S, Volatile Organic Carbons (VOC) are the major contributors which generates the odour in such sectors. Technical interventions are required to control the odour at source. Ankleshwar and Vapi in Gujarat are the industrial estates in which the problem is seen. The Board has asked many industrial units in Ankleshwar to implement the Odour Control Action Plan to each of such unit which includes the measures like: (i) Storage of odourous chemicals under negative pressure (ii) Nitrogen blanketing / purging during the transfer of such materials (iii) Provision of Fume Incinerator in specific unit (iv)bio-filtration /Ozone treatment / filters and other techniques of absorption and adsorption etc. Many steps of cleaner production has helped in reduction in VOC release in the atmosphere has ultimately also resulted in relief from the odour in industrial units such as (i) use of chilled brine in condensers improves not only the recovery of solvent but also reduce odour nuisance. (ii) Provision of the breather valve in the storage tanks of such material and storage of such material in the tanks to reduce the drum handling etc. 228

239 Annual Report : Such initiative by the Board has resulted in to the less number of complaints from these areas in last two years. ( 8 ) CLEANER PRODUCTION Cleaner Production, with great vitality and buoyancy, being a new era Pollution Prevention in the history of Environmental Promotion and will become the best approach for pollution control in this new century. GPCB is actively engaged in promotional activities of Cleaner Production. To motivate the industries, Gujarat Pollution Control Board authorities have also initiated concepts of pollution prevention. GPCB is also now working on Proactive Concepts and supporting in creation of Cleaner Production. As a part of this activity GPCB assigned a project of Awareness Programme on Promotional Activities of Cleaner Production at different sectors & different group in Gujarat to Gujarat Cleaner Production Centre. The Chairman, GPCB and Member Secretary, GPCB provided a platform to GCPC with their Technical Support & Encouraged Promotional activities in Different Industrial Estate and Academics Institution.

Majority of these units are using solid fuel like Lignite/steam Coal or wood in the boiler/thermic Fluid Heater. Due to this, there are frequent problems of air pollution from stack of Boiler/Thermic Fluid Heater. GPCB regional office, Ahmedabad is regularly carrying out monitoring of these units even though, this also requires Surveillance monitoring to control emission of Particulate matter. In the face of manpower shortage, logistics problems and increasing pressure to make a heavily industrialised state less toxic, the GPCB has installed a Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) camera system which facilitates monitoring of chimneys of industries from RO-Office. GPCB Regional Office, Ahmedabad has commissioned a unique project to control this air pollution by visual live monitoring of emission from stack of Boiler/ Thermic Fluid Heater. The image of plume with boiler stack captured by CCTV Camera, transferred through DVR (Digital Video Recorder) and thus live images are receiving through internet on LCD-TV which is installed at Regional office, Ahmedabad. Total 29 nos of DVR have been installed which is connected to 57 cameras that covers 89 nos of stacks of Boiler/Thermic Fluid Heater in 75 industries. The recording of snapshots can be kept for 30 days. 23

242 Gujarat Pollution Control Board In Vatva, another industrial cluster on the city's outskirts, 4 CCTVs have been installed although they are yet to start functioning due to insufficient Internet connectivity. The Surveillance officer immediately contact the person in charge of the unit through mobile, in case of thick smoke emission is observed from stack and direct them to take necessary action to control the same. This has resulted in to optimum fuel consumption and live physical monitoring of emission which in turn reduced the air pollution. Thus, with the limited staff of the office, the system became helpful for better surveillance monitoring for air pollution.subsequently this system is being extended in area of GIDC vatva and city area where 4 and 4 industrial units respectively has installed CCTV Camera in their premises. Considering the upbeat results GPCB extended the CCTV camera system to another highly industrialized textile hub at Surat. In Surat installation of CCTV Cameras was started in February 202. This system is operational in about 70 industries and for remaining units work is under process. 232
