11 ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY (CLEAN AIR) REGULATIONS 2014 Replacement to the Environmental Quality (Clean Air) Regulations 1978 Gazetted on 4 th June 2014 and started enforced on the 5 th June Existing Industrial Facilities are given 5 years grace period (untill 5 th June 2019) to ensure compliance to the air emission limits mentioned in the law. Applicable for: Premise that conducts burning or incineration (of waste, materials etc) activity Premise that discharges air pollutants into the open air Any industrial plant Any fuel burning equipment

12 DOE S JURISDICTION UNDER CAR 2014 PRODUCT SAND BLASTING PROCESS DUST COLLECTOR CHIMNEY DOE S

13 3 prerequisites for success in air pollution control: Stage III (Operation stage) - Proper operation, preventive maintenance (plus performance monitoring) Stage II (construction stage) - Adequate quality of construction Stage I (design stage) - Adequate design

14 REGULATION Citation Interpretation Application Obligation to comply Obligation to notify Measures to reduce emission Air pollution control system Failure in operation of air pollution control system Performance monitoring of air pollution control system Maintenance of records Change of occupancy Opacity Limit values and technical standards Prohibition on emission dilution Hazardous substances Periodic measurements Continuous measurements Emission declaration Owner or occupier of premises to render assistance Failure of control equipment and emergency requirement Accidental emission Installation and operations as required by the Director General Standard method of sampling and analysis of emissions Prohibition order Licence required to contravene acceptable conditions for emitting emissions into atmosphere Schedule of required actions Fees False or misleading information Penalty Revocation
