E-mail: [email protected] visit us at http://mpcb.mah.nic.in Published by Dr. D. B. Boralkar, Member Secretary, on behalf of the Maharashtra Pollution Control Board at 'Kalpataru Point', Sion (East), Mumbai. Website: http://mpcb.mah.nic.in FROM THE MEMBER SECRETARY'S DESK YEAR 2005-2006 AT A GLANCE Maharashtra Pollution Control Board (MPCB or “Board”) achieved many milestones during the year 2005-2006, despite being faced with many challenges. We accomplished these milestones by focusing not just on our mandated tasks such as monitoring and enforcement, raising public awareness and consent management, but often times going beyond the call of duty. We partnered and collaborated with national and international institutions to improve functional efficiency and build both internal and external capacity. We set up demonstration projects, funded new ventures, provided consultation to local bodies, proposed expansions of existing monitoring networks and common infrastructure, and recognizing the Information Technology (IT) age, placed vast amounts of data and resources on our website. In all these endeavors, we were guided by our vision to move towards overall betterment and sustainability - better efficiency, better transparency, better responses and better protection of the State's environment. Some specific examples of how we achieved our targets for the year are summarized in a table of highlights in the first chapter of this Environment Monitor. The year 2005-2006 also saw a paradigm shift in the our thought process as a Board, in our quest to change in unprecedented ways.

This would also help them to get employment to bring their families out of poverty cycle. The Program has been successfully replicated in five other districts of Maharashtra and one district in Madhya Pradesh. Currently, 2339 beneficiaries from class 8 to 10 (SSC) are benefiting from these areas. So far, LOLT has helped around 9872 needy children directly and over 58,000 villagers indirectly.
