Respected sir,
Nanded district is the district in Maharashtra state which is naturally separated from the Telangana state by the Manjra river. The district administration has identified 9 sand deposits, 7 within the river bed Manjara and 2 within bed of Lendi river which according to the sr. geologist are fit to be excavated from the bed' The survey has been conducted by the district administration and previously the proposal of 66 sand spots along with these inter state 9 sandspots was recommended to sEAC for EIA clearance. The aforementioned spots were not considered by the committee as they lie within the 5 km periphery of interstate border.
The sand auction is the major source of revenue of Nanded district. In absence of environment clearance it won't be possible to carry on the auction and in turn it will affect the receipt of revenue recovery,
From the proceedings of meeting of state Expert Appraisal Committee- SEAC 1 Maharashtra held on 10th sept 2015, the sand deposits of Sangavi Umar, Madenkular in Degloor taluka and Ganjgaon, Hungunda, Karla, Bolegaon, Machnur, Sagroli in Biloli taluka and sangam of Dharmabad comes within the 5 Km of the interstate border and therefore for considering the proposal under category A, directions have been called from the Central Environment and Forest Ministry. Also, the proposal required for taking the permission of EIA (Environment Impact Assessment) for the sand auction of the above 9 sand deposits is subinitted herewith. lt is requested to accord the required EIA permission for the auction of the said 9 sand deposits. Thanking you
