Environment Clearance Process

The Environment Clearance (EC) process is a government requirement to assess and approve new projects or industrial activities, ensuring they do not harm the environment or public health. Developers must submit detailed plans and environmental impact assessments, outlining potential effects on air, water, soil, wildlife, and local communities. Authorities review this information, sometimes involving public consultations, to determine if the project can proceed with safeguards in place. This process aims to balance economic development with environmental protection, promoting sustainable growth while minimizing ecological damage.
