Preamble Hon’ble National Green Tribunal (NGT) in its order in O.A. No. 360 of 2018 dated 15.12.2019, directed as follows: “We find it necessary to add that in view of Constitutional provisions under Articles 243 G, 243 W, 243 ZD read with Schedules 11 and 12 and Rule 15 of the Solid Waste Management Rules, 2016, it is necessary to have a District Environment Plan to be operated by a District Committee (as a part of District Planning Committee under Article 243 ZD) with representatives from Panchayats, Local Bodies, Regional Officers, State PCB and a suitable officer representing the administration, which may in turn be chaired and monitored by the District Magistrate. Such District Environment Plans and Constitution of District Committee may be placed on the website of Districts concerned.” This order was re-stressed by Hon’ble NGT in O.A. No. 360/2018, order dated 26.09.2019, where Hon’ble Tribunal said, “Compliance of this direction may also be seen by the Chief Secretaries of the States/UTs. This may not only comply with mandate of law but provide an institutional mechanism for effective monitoring of environment norms” Accordingly, Forest, Environment and Climate Change Department, Government of Jharkhand, through notification no. 4869 dated 26.12.2019, reconstituted District Environment Committee and also gave it responsibility of drafting District Environment Plan (DEP). Government of India has enacted acts such as The Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1974 (No.6 of 1974), The Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1981 (No.14 of 1981) and The Environment Protection Act, 1986 (No.29 of 1986) besides other acts which have implications on environment related governance. Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEFCC) have notified various waste management rules under The Environment Protection Act, 1986 from time to time to manage the burgeoning issue of waste and thus prevent and control environmental damage In this regard, newly constituted District Environment Committee of Latehar District held various meetings and tried to gain 360-degree view of situation of environment management related practices in Latehar district. The committee also segregated data according to model data collection format prescribed by Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) and tried to explore opportunities of better implementation of various acts and rules inside the district. This comprehensive document is outcome of efforts of the committee to evaluate the present scenario of environment related governance in the district at all levels be it urban or panchayat, and clearly define the present and future responsibilities of different functionaries and task forces, related to implementation of acts and rules in the district. This is also a futuristic document which lays the road map of future of environment related governance in the district.

• Introduction Environment is sum total of interactions between biotic components – animals, plants, and other living organisms, and abiotic components – water, air, soil, sunlight etc. Due to increase of population, urbanisation, industrialisation & over exploitation of natural resources as well as economic activities have fallout of disturbing the environment around us. As, these activities are unavoidable, the need of the time is to manage the waste and pollutants in such a way that it affects our environment minimally. One famous quote is there:- “Environment is sufficient to full-fill everyone’s need but not sufficient to full-fill one’s greed.” Environment management plan is not only associated with management of waste and pollutants rather, it is also associated with management of our natural resources like drinking water in a sustainable manner and conserving our natural heritage like forest, ground water table which provides innumerable number of eco-system services. Thus, it becomes far more essential to have a holistic picture of scenario of environment, current status of implementation of applicable acts and rules made under them, future planning for their compliance and need of resources for the same. It is also essential that all the departments have a clear objective in their mind and are also clear about their role towards betterment of environment. This exercise would best be done at district level, and thus District Environment Plan will be effective to sustainable development of district and it’s citizen’s health. The scope of District Environment Plan is clearly laid out in Hon’ble NGT order in O.A. No. 360/2018, dated 26.09.2018, which said: “while fixing a schedule for further appearance of the Chief Secretaries of all the States/UTs, direction has been issued to compile information with reference to the following specific thematic areas viz.: Compliance to Solid Waste Rules including Legacy Waste. Compliance to Bio-medical Waste Rules. Compliance to Construction & Demolition Waste. Compliance to Hazardous Waste Rules. Compliance to E-waste Rules. 351 Polluter Stretches in the country. 122 Non-attainment cities. 100 industrial clusters. Status of STPs and re-use of treated water. Status of CETPs/ETPs including performance. Ground water extraction/contamination and re-charge. Air pollution including noise pollution. Illegal sand mining. Rejuvenation of water bodies” Forest, Environment and Climate Change Department, Government of Jharkhand, through notification no. 4869 dated 26.12.2019 also included implementation of • Air Act • Water Act in the purview of the District Environment Plan. Hon’ble NGT in O.A. No. 360/2018, order dated 26.09.2019, in para 8, also said: “Such information is to be furnished to the CPCB by the Chief Secretaries of all the States/UTs indicating: Current status Desirable level of compliance in terms of statutes Gap between current status and desired levels. Proposal of attending the gap with time lines. Name and designation of designated officer for ensuring compliance to provisions under statute.”

The above order provides the broad contours for developing a District Environment Plan. Thus, this District Environment Plan would follow above broad guidelines in context of Latehar district.

• Approach towards District Environment Plan This environment plan is drafted keeping following in mind: • It is a dynamic document. It has to be updated with changing scenario in the district. At present, the revision frequency of 2 years is advised. • It is not limited to environment management in urban areas only but also focusses on rural areas. • The prescriptions will mostly need attention by responsible parties to ensure cleaner Latehar in future but will also need budgetary support at many occasions. This can either be done by enhancing revenue sources, using present sources of tied and untied fund, or by support from state or centre government. • This document not only discusses all the applicable rules at one place but also targets that there is convergence while implementing rules. • This plan also puts responsibilities on various government functionaries as well as on heads of local bodies and expects that they try earnestly to achieve the targets. • All responsible parties are expected to report to the District Environment Committee at regular intervals the progress regarding the duties impressed upon them, or report as and when the committee asks them to report so.

• Indian Scenario India faces unique challenges just because of its sheer size of population. Amount of waste generated is proportional to population. Also, sustenance of the large population demands various economic activities which are bound to produce pollutants in large amount like operation of coal-based power plants. If we only look at municipal waste generation in urban India, annual generation is close to 65 million tonnes/year. Only 43 million tonnes (MT) of the waste is collected, 11.9 MT is treated and 31 MT is dumped in landfill sites. Urban India is the world’s 3rd largest garbage generator and by 2050 waste is expected to rise to 436 million tons. This is projected figure for only municipal waste generated in urban area and does not include many other kind of waste such as Construction and Demolition waste, e-waste etc.

Though the per capita daily generation of waste is lower in non-urban setup, still it can be as high as 30-35 million tonnes per annum. This figure doesn’t really come in discussion because of they are not usually concentrated like in urban areas but are mostly dumped and burnt in backyard. Various subordinate legislations for regulating the manner of disposal and dealing with generated waste are made under the umbrella law of Environment Protection Act, 1986 (EPA). Specific forms of waste are the subject matter of separate rules and require separate compliances, mostly in the nature of authorisations, maintenance of records and adequate disposal mechanisms. Need of the hour is proper implementation of all the rules made under various act at district level. Due to multiplicity of the rules and technicalities involved, it is necessary that the implementation is steered by ensuring convergence between various stakeholders, be it regulator or the polluter. District Environment Plan goes beyond only Pollution Management Plan. Management and regulation of polluting activities in India has been mainly devolved to local bodies and State Pollution Control Boards (SPCB). But, it is much more than that. There has to be co-ordination between district authorities and local bodies so that the district as a unit is able to comply with all the rules. Officials representing State Pollution Control Boards should not only check whether rules are being complied or not but go beyond that to facilitate one and all to manage polluting activities and reduce impact on environment.

At this juncture, it would also be wise to have a relook at the administrative setup at district level (More or less consistent across India). Below given diagram represents it qualitatively:

Figure 2. Typical Administrative setup at District Level • • Brief Profile of Latehar District Latehar district is the part of Palamau Division and is located in the north western part of the Jharkhand state. It is one of the most spectacular district of Jharkhand state that has heritage of one of the richest biodiversity of the state. Our district has the only National Park, () and the only Tiger Reserve of the state (), whose boundary touches as well as it has heritage of very beautiful hill station which is situated in the lap of nature.

• Waste Management Plan Waste generation is a natural process due to urbanization, human activities, economic development, and population growth. Waste management is a universal issue affecting every single person in the world. Individuals and governments make decisions about consumption and waste management that affect the daily health, productivity, and cleanliness of communities. Growth in prosperity and movement to urban areas are linked to increases in per capita generation of waste. Furthermore, rapid urbanization and population growth create larger population centres, making the collection of all waste and the procuring of land for treatment and disposal more and more difficult. It will be interesting to look at quantity of wet waste (which can be composted) generated in the whole composition of municipal waste (in lower middle-income category): The fact that around 55% of our waste is wet waste, should direct our policy of managing it. Source point segregation can reduce the burden on our dump yards. It will be interesting to note that India lags far behind in segregation at source point. Costly and complex waste operations must compete for funding with other priorities such as clean water and other utilities, education, and health care. Waste management is often administered by local authorities with limited resources and limited capacity for planning, contract. management, and operational monitoring. These factors make sustainable waste management a complicated proposition on the path of sustainable development. Segregation at source can be biggest challenge for any local body. This is much more amplified because of lack of expert managers, lack of budget, poor financial health and low sources of income of local bodies.

Figure 7. Example data of segregation at source from few cities of India

• Solid Waste Management Plan According to Solid Waste Management Rules, 2016, "solid waste" means and includes solid or semi-solid domestic waste, sanitary waste, commercial waste, institutional waste, catering and market waste and other non-residential wastes, street sweepings, silt removed or collected from the surface drains, horticulture waste, agriculture and dairy waste, treated bio-medical waste excluding industrial waste, bio-medical waste and e-waste, battery waste, radio-active waste generated in the area under the local authorities and other entities. There are separate rules for e-waste which would be discussed separately in this document. Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEFCC) has notified the Solid Waste Management Rules 2016. As per the rules, the role of local body has been specified as section 15.

Solid Waste Management in Latehar City Review of data collected in format suggested by CPCB (for details see Section 9.1.1 of this document), suggests the following: 1. Total waste generation is around 11.06 MT/day inside jurisdiction are of Latehar Nagar Panchayat. 2. Door to Door collection according to survey is only partial 3. Waste segregation is only partial 4. There is no separate disposal of segregated waste 5. Present dumpsite is located outside the town and many new constructions have come up around it, due to expansion of the town. This leads to foul smell as well as possible leaching of pollutants in ground water. 6. There is no successful identification of sanitary landfill till date. Attempts are being done to find it.

Further observations across the Latehar urban centre suggest the following: 1. Citizen in general do not segregate waste. 2. People of our town are not very much aware of hazardous effect of throwing degradable waste (domestic) with poly bag. 3. Collecting vehicle mainly consists of tractor driven trolley as well as small vehicle. Facility to collect the waste in a segregated manner is only available in small three tier vehicle. No such facility is available in big vehicle like Tractor.

Considering above, following will be the approach of Solid Waste Management in Latehar Nagar Panchayat Area: 1. 100% segregation at source 2. 100% segregation while collection or at disposal points (No mixing of dry and wet waste) 3. Developing a culture of segregation of waste in households 4. To encourage the citizen of the district to separate the biodegradable and non- degradable waste no fee is charged so that they may develop a culture of separating the waste. 5. 100% composting of wet waste. This will be done centralized in urban areas and distributed micro composting, at Village and Block level. 6. Involving SHGs for segregation of recyclable waste and thus providing employment 7. Switching to modified Ambikapur Zero Waste Model. 8. Awareness programme will be initiated among children by organising different type of competition like painting competition, debate competition, elocution competition, slogan writing competition etc. so that this awareness may enter in household through children. 9. To encourage the participation of the students a good award will be given to the winners. 10. Selected painting and slogans at district level will be displayed on banner to aware the people of the district. 11. Emphasis on importance of 3-Rs - (a) Reduce- To reduce the use of plastic and non-degradable product. (b) Recycle- People would be aware of separating recyclable waste. (c) Reuse- Reuse of plastic jar, plastic bottle etc. in domestic purposes will reduce a little the production of such plastic material.

• Solid Waste Management at Block and Village Level With maximum population residing in rural areas, there is also a need to manage solid waste generated in villages. The plan is designed with following philosophy in mind: • There should be one designated disposal place in every village with clear demarcated place for wet and dry waste with impervious lining. • There should be one waste management committee per Panchayat Samiti with a collection cart, which is involved in management of the disposal sites. • The collection carts should be used for collecting dry waste from each village. • Each village should have attached on-site micro composting unit for composting the wet waste. The compost can also be used as fertilizer. • Incineration of waste should be strictly avoided. • There should be a collection unit at block level where each Gram Panchayat can deposit their dry waste. Panchayat Samiti should be separate recyclable material from this dry waste and pay each GP according to quantity at fixed rate. • Panchayat Samiti should transport the non-recyclable waste to micro sanitary land fill site. • Each Panchayat Samiti should send the recyclable waste to Latehar District collection point from where Latehar Nagar Panchayat will send it to recyclers. Latehar Nagar Panchayat should pay Panchayat Samitis at fixed rates.

Considering above, responsibility matrix with timeline is as below:

Responsible Activity Objectives Functionaries 1.9 1.9.1 Each Gram panchayat to constitute a waste Panchayat Sec. and Administration management committee Mukhiya 1.10 1.10.1 Every village to identify a place for disposal of CO, DDC and Ward Segregation waste in two categories like wet and dry waste with Members nearby micro composting provision 1.11.1 Each Gram Panchayat to collect dry waste and 1.11 Collection BDO and Mukhiya send it to collection point at Block Level 1.12.1 Pachayat Samiti to establish a block level dry 1.12 Separation waste collection and separation centre 1.13.1 Pachayat Samiti to identify micro sanitary DDC, BDO, CO and 1.13 Landfill landfill site for non-recyclable waste Pramukh 1.14.1 Hoardings and paintings in local language which 1.14 Awareness promotes segregation of waste BDO and Executive 1.15 Budgeting 1.15.1 Preparation of budget for activities related to Officer, Panchayat for Block level waste management and year wise budget requirement Samiti

• Plastic Waste Management Plan Invention of plastic was said to be boon for the human society but now a days due to much more dependency on plastic has been proved as curse for human society as well as environment. In order to give thrust to plastic waste minimization, source segregation, separation into recyclable plastic and non-recyclable plastic at material recovery facility and sending it to recyclers is must. MoEFCC has notified Plastic Waste Management Rules, 2016 in this regard. Government of Jharkhand has imposed Complete ban on manufacture, import, collection, transportation, use & sale of plastic carry bags vide notification no. 3900, dated 15.09.2017. Even if Latehar District has natural heritage of greenery and population density of this district is also less than other districts. Therefore generation of plastic waste is even less. Although Latehar is less plastic waste producing district but in town area generation of plastic waste is more than the rural areas. Still, plastic waste need to be collected from all Panchayat Samitis and useful material should be recovered through processing from the sanitary land fill. Problem of plastic waste is well known to all of us. It can be recovered by using a polyblend technique in construction of road. Polylblend is the technique in which plastic waste is crushed into small pieces and with the help of digester it is mixed with coal tar. Plastic mixed coal tar is used in construction of road. Due to this plastic water repellent capacity of the road is increased. It enhances the durability of road up to 1.5 to 2 times. This technique has been already implemented in Karnataka, Tamilnadu & Telangana State. With the help of this technique 600-800 KG of plastic waste can be used in construction of 1 KM long and 4 meter wide road. (See ref.-6)

Considering above, responsibility matrix with timeline is as below (integrating relevant portion from previous section): Responsible Activity Objective Functionaries 1.2.3 Setup material recovery facilities or secondary storage facilities with sufficient space for sorting waste 2.1 into recyclable and non-recylable components Segregation DC and Executive 2.1.1 Ensuring processing and disposal on non-recyclable and Disposal Officer, Latehar fraction of plastic waste in accordance with the guidelines Nagar Panchayat issued by the CPCB 2.2.1 Sending recyclable plastic to nearest identified 2.2 plastic recycler Channelization 2.2.2 Construction agencies shall encourage the use of of collected plastic waste (the plastic waste which cannot be further Superintendent waste recycled) for road construction as per Indian Road Engineer, PWD Congress guidelines Executive Officer, 1.2.4 Notification of bylaws for fine for using single use 2.3 By-Laws Latehar Nagar plastic and Panchayat Inspections 2.3.1 Surprise inspections to implement by-laws and Gov.

Biomedical Waste Management Plan

"Bio-Medical Waste" means any waste, which is generated during the diagnosis, treatment or immunisation of human beings or animals or research activities pertaining thereto or in the production or testing of biological or in health camps. MoEFCC has notified Biomedical Waste Management Rules 2016 to regulate this kind of waste. According to the rule following comes under purview of Biomedical Waste Management Rules: • Hospitals including Ayush Hospitals • Nursing Homes, Clinics • Dispensaries • Veterinary Institutions, Animal Houses • Pathological Laboratories • Blood Banks / Blood Donation Camps • Clinical Establishments • Research or Educational Institutions, Research Labs • Health Camps • Medical or Surgical Camps • Vaccination Camps • First Aid Rooms of Schools • Forensic Laboratories Following is the colour code for segregating Biomedical Waste and the arrangement of colour coded dustbins, should be with each occupier:

In Latehar district, there are 10 government hospitals with 70 bedded facility at Sadar Hospital Latehar. Many 6-7 bed hospitals are there at block level. There are some private hospitals beyond government setup. There are also Animal Houses or Veterinary Hospitals which also generate biomedical waste.

Considerations in case of Latehar district are: • There are no Common Biomedical Waste Treatment Facility (CBWTF) in Latehar District. Biomedical waste generated in township is managed through an agreement between Sadar Hospital and Medicare Environment Management, Pvt. Ltd, Industrial Area Lohardaga Jharkhand. • One common biomedical waste treatment plan will be proposed to open in Latehar District area. • Deep burial is not encouraged and even if it is done, it should be done after pre- treatment and location finalized in consultation with JSPCB. • There should be a system to collect biomedical waste from bedded CHCs and dispose them centrally at Latehar when CBWTF is sanctioned. • There should be attention on private hospitals and medical shops to monitor how they are managing there biomedical waste.

Responsibility and timeline matrix is as follows:

Responsible Activity Objective Functionaries 3.1.1 Segregation of waste according to Annexure-8.1, of both government and private facilities 3.1.2 Make provision within the premises for a safe, ventilated and secured location for storage of segregated biomedical waste in coloured bags or containers in the manner as specified in Annexure 8.1, to ensure that there shall be no secondary handling, pilferage of recyclables or inadvertent scattering or spillage by animals and the bio-medical waste from such place or premises shall be directly transported in the manner as prescribed Civil Surgeon, 3.1 3.1.3 Not to mix untreated bio-medical waste with municipal solid District Segregation waste Veterinary and Record 3.1.4 Provide training to all its health care workers and others, Hospital Incharge, Keeping involved in handling of bio medical waste at the time of induction and Owners of Private thereafter at least once every year Health Facility 3.1.5 Maintain and update on day to day basis the bio-medical waste management register and display the monthly record on its website according to the bio-medical waste generated in terms of category and colour coding 3.1.6 Establish a process of collection of bio-medical waste from other CHCs every 48 hours, so that they can come to Latehar for deep burial, if no Common Biomedical Waste Treatment Facility is finalized. To be sent to CBWTF when finalized. 3.2.1 Each BMW producer to identify nearest Common Bio-Medical Civil Surgeon, Treatment Facility and send their waste properly segregated and bar District coded to them for final disposal. Veterinary 3.2.2 Establish a Bar- Code System for bags or containers containing Hospital Incharge, bio-medical waste to be sent out of the premises or place for any Owners of Private purpose Health Facility 3.2.3 If CBWTF is not within radius of 75kms, on site disposal may be 3.2 Disposal Civil Surgeon and allowed after the facility has taken permission from JSPCB and is RO, JSPCB following guidelines 3.2.4 Avoidance of deep burial and switching over to process like autoclave, pyrolysis etc. Government run facilities to present Civil Surgeon, estimates to health department regarding the same. Owners of Private 3.2.5 Maintain all record for operation of incineration, hydro or Health Facility autoclaving etc., for a period of five years

• Construction and Demolition (C&D) Waste Management Plan The C&D Waste Rules 2016 laid out detailed duties and responsibilities of different stakeholders ranging from waste generators to Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) to ministries. However, implementation of these rules has not been to full extent. Best practice in India shows that 80-90% of C&D waste can be reused after processing in a variety of applications such as landscaping, earth work, soil erosion prevention and other applications such as road tiles etc. ULBs capacities to develop the management and recycling model are limited. Also, the C&D waste is issue in major cities and still not a burgeoning issue for small cities like Latehar. Still marking of a place for disposing C&D waste is very important. Responsibility matrix is as follows:

Responsible Activity Objective Functionaries DC and 4.1.1 Identification of deposit site for C&D waste, its wide Executive popularity in newspaper and installation of signage leading to Officer, 4.1 Disposal the site Latehar Nagar Panchayat 4.1.2 Avoidance of mixing of solid waste with C&D waste, Executive while collection Officer, 4.2.1 Passing of by-law, imposing fine for irresponsible Latehar Nagar 4.2 By-law disposal of C&D waste Panchayat

• Hazardous Waste Management Plan Hazardous waste is defined as “any substance, excluding domestic and radioactive wastes, which because of its quantity and/or corrosive, reactive, ignitable, toxic and infectious characteristics causes significant hazards to human health or environment when improperly treated, stored, transported and disposed. In Latehar District glass waste in more or less amount is being produced by each and every house and constructing big buildings. No Kabadiwala is either purchasing or picking it up. Now a days it is a big problem but in coming future it may be a serious issue as it is hazardous for human being and animals wandering in search of food. The list of activities which commonly generates hazardous waste are given Hazardous Waste Management Rules 2016. Also, many metals in excess of certain concentration and many compounds are classified as hazardous.

Responsible Activity Objective Functionaries 5.1.1 Industrial HW generators to register themselves with JSPCB, and store HW in appropriate and safe manner 5.1 5.1.2 Keeping a list of activities/industrial processes which Segregation can create hazardous waste, and ensure that they follow District Industry and Disposal Hazardous Waste Rules 2016 Officer and RO, of Industrial 5.1.3 The hazardous and other wastes generated in the JSPCB HW establishment of an occupier shall be sent or sold to an authorised actual user or shall be disposed of in an authorised disposal facility 5.2 1.3.1 Arrangement for disposal points of domestic Executive Officer, Collection hazardous waste (at least 3 inside jurisdiction of Nagar Latehar Nagar and Panchayat) Panchayat recycling of 1.3.2 Arrangement for door to door collection of domestic domestic hazardous waste like glass waste once in month HW

• E-Waste Waste Management Plan Electrical and electronic equipment including their components, parts and spares, CPU, Laptops, electrical-typewriters, telex, telephone, cellular phones, printers including cartridges, T.V, LED, Refrigerator, Washing Machine, A.C, fluorescent and mercury containing lamps etc constitute E-Waste. As whole Latehar District account more than 90% rural area. Urban area is restricted only in Latehar District town. Therefore amount of e-waste generated in our district is minimal. Even if it is needed to aware the people about bad impact of e-waste on our health and environment.

Responsible Activity Objectives Functionaries 6.1.1 Desginated place for deposition of E-Waste in Latehar town, Executive 6.1 which is also secured and safe. Publishing it in newspapers. Officer, Collection 6.1.2 Generating a list of e-waste collectors in the district and Latehar Nagar publicizing it. Panchayat Executive 6.2 6.2.1 Sending of collected E-waste, periodically, to nearest Officer, Recycling authorised E-Waste recycler Latehar Nagar Panchayat 6.3.1 Awareness generation among waste aggregators in Latehar DC and 6.3 that e-waste should be treated separately and should be sent to e- Executive Awareness waste recycler only Officer, Generation 6.3.2 Awareness generation so that E-Waste is not thrown along Latehar Nagar with solid-waste Panchayat

Water Resources Management Plan

We generate huge amounts of waste water annually. Mismanagement of waste water, which also contaminates groundwater and is breeding ground for pathogens, contributes to significant part of population dealing with water borne diseases. In spite of possessing surface water resources, India is highly dependent on groundwater resources for day to day survival. Right now, India is facing challenges to fulfil its demand through the existing but depleting resources. Latehar is not different. Here also, in many villages there are issues of safe drinking water while many parts of Latehar, especially urban parts, are directly dumping the waste water into the regional drainage system consisting of Nalas and Rivers. We will have to manage not only waste water by recycling but rainwater harvesting will also be needed to raise ground water table. A small effort to encourage people to make soak-pit in their home for rainwater harvesting. Plastic drum made soak-pit near common hand pump (in a very low cost) may be fruitful in solving two problems-  To maintain ground water table.  To resolve problem of overflowing of nala over Road.

Overview of Jharkhand performance in CWMI Performance • Domestic Sewage Management Plan Sewage consists of liquid wastes produced in residences, commercial establishments and institutions; Liquid Wastes discharged from industries; and any subsurface, surface or storm-water which enters the sewer. Hence basically sewage contains three components: • Sanitary or domestic sewage • Industrial wastes • Infiltration, Inflow and storm-water.

Considerations in case of Latehar are: • No specific sewerage network is there in Latehar District. All liquid waste are mostly discharged into local depression, nalas leading to rivers or waterbodies such as ponds. • A high percentage of household have backyard sump as way of disposal of domestic waste water (grey water). • No part of liquid waste is treated Considering above, the proposals for management of waste water are: • In Latehar, decentralized sewerage system is advisable. • Decentralized sewerage system for each ward, should be attempted for managing the grey water. • In decentralized sewerage system, treatment of waste water is done at local level which is easily manageable. Decentralized sewerage system is the collection, treatment, disposal/reuse of sewage from individual homes, clusters of homes, isolated communities or institutional facilities, as well as from portions of existing communities at or near the point of waste generation.

Figure . Centralized system vs Decentralized system The decentralization concepts and technologies in sewage management of grey water need to be systematically investigated, with focus on its development and practical implementation in Latehar. It may be borne in mind that the approach adopted for decentralized sewage management system (DSMS) is area specific and governed by number of issues and conditions prevailing, and also the methodology adopted and is influenced by (i) technical aspects (ii) financial aspects, (iii) social aspects, (iv) environmental aspects, and (v) legal aspects. Thus, a proper planning will be required. One can take up one habitation of 60-100 households respectively and plan implementation of DSMS of 0.5-1 MLD capacity. One example of Decentralized Wastewater Treatment System with treatment sequence is given below:

Figure 12. Schematic process flow diagram of DSMS Responsibility matrix is as follows:

Responsible Activity Objectives Functionaries 7.1.1 (a) DPR preparation for development of sewerage and treatment system of domestic sewage and estimation of capacity Executive 7.1 of STP needed (centralized or distributed) for Latehar NP Officer, Latehar Planning 7.1.1 (b) Development of DPR for Decentralized Waste Water Nagar Collection and Treatment System (DWWCTS) - WARD WISE for Panchayat Latehar Nagar Panchayat 7.2 7.2.1 Installation of at least one unit of DWWCTS in one of ward Installation of Latehar of Civil Surgeon sewerage 7.2.2 Installation of STP at Latehar NP network and STP 7.3.1 Passing of by law for complete ban on flow of grey water Executive from households to water bodies like lakes and ponds Officer, Latehar 7.3 By- Nagar Laws 7.3.2 Passing of bylaw to make backyard sump compulsory for Panchayat and household not connected to sewerage system Public Representatives

• Industrial Wastewater Management Plan

• Polluted River stretches In light of Hon’ble NGT order dated 20.09.2018 in O.A No. 673/2018, CPCB have classified the polluted river stretches in five priority categories i.e., I, II, III, IV, V depending upon the level of BOD. • Criteria for Priority I - BOD greater than or equal to 30mg/L • Criteria for Priority II - BOD between 20-30 mg/L. • Criteria for Priority III - BOD between 10-20 mg/L. • Criteria for Priority IV - BOD between 6-10 mg/L. • Criteria for Priority V - BOD between 3- 6mg/L. Seven river stretches have been identified in Priority IV & V as polluted stretches in Jharkhand.

Though, there are no recorded polluted river stretches flowing through Latehar, but there is an eminent need to ensure that none of the river stretches converts to a polluted stretch. There is a need to monitor the health of river stretches prone to pollution.

Thus, the responsibility matrix is as follows: Responsible Activity Objectives Functionaries 7.4.1 Half yearly monitoring of river health at strategic points 7.4 Monitoring (to be decided by DE committee) RO, JSPCB of Rivers 7.4.2 Strict vigil on mixing of effluents from polluting industry, in nalas and rivers

• Ground Water Extraction, Contamination and Recharge Plan Residents of many villages in Latehar face problems getting drinking water, especially during summer. Thus, there is a need of mapping the difficult areas and preparation of plan for the stressed villages. Responsible Activity Objectives Functionaries 7.5.1 Mapping of stressed villages DC, Executive 7.5 Mapping of Engineer, water stressed 7.5.2 Planning and Convergence of different schemes Drinking Water villages and ensuring provision of drinking water for stressed villages and Sanitation Convergence Dept 7.6.1 Installation of rain-water harvesting structures in all Departmental department buildings Heads 7.6 Rain Water Executive Harvesting 7.6.2 Passing of by-law making construction of rain-water Officer, Latehar harvesting structure compulsory for new constructions Nagar Pacnchayat DC, DDC, BDO 7.6.3 Campaign to aware citizen about installation of and Head of rainwater harvesting structures like backyard sump Local Bodies Executive 7.6.4 To develop Plastic Drum made soak-pit near common Officer, Latehar hand pump resolve problem of overflowing Nala on road as Nagar well as to maintain ground water table Pacnchayat

Rejuvenation of Water Bodies

Water bodies like Ponds, Rivers and Lakes face problems of siltation and weed growth. Both, reduces their water retention capacity. Urban lakes are even more critical, as they are not only essential for re-charge of ground water but also recreation. Further they are polluted due to human activities such as bathing, washing of clothes and discharge of domestic and industrial untreated effluent. Responsible Activity Objectives Functionaries 7.7 Inventory 7.7.1 Preparation of village wise list of lakes, including the of Water new ones constructed under schemes like MGNREGA, PMKSY, CO Bodies IWMP & CAMPA 7.8 Cleaning Executive and De- 7.8.1 Preparation of cleaning and de-siltation programme for Officer, Latehar siltation of the lakes Nagar Water Bodies Panchayat, 7.9.1 Ban of use of soap and detergent for bathing and BDOs and 7.9 Ban cleaning clothes in certain lakes and ponds. As well as Mukhiyas discharge of untreated effluent must be banned. Executive Officer, Latehar 7.10.1 Catchment area treatment of the lakes Nagar 7.10 Panchayat Improvement 7.10.2 Over exploitation of River sand will be banned so that sufficient amount of sand should remain present in river to DMO maintain it’s existence and to overcome the problem of growth of weed.

• Air Management Plan In Latehar major source of air pollution are: • Stone Mining and Crushing (will be dealt with in Section 6) • Vehicular Emissions • Uncovered vehicles transporting coal, sand etc. • Burning of solid municipal waste

Considering above the responsibility matrix is as follows: Responsible Activity Objectives Functionaries 8.1 Air Quality 8.1.1 Install Continuous Ambient Air Quality Monitoring Station RO, JSPCB Monitoring (CAAQMS) and maintain a record of its readings 8.2.1 Carry surprise checking operations to check vehicles which are 8.2 Vehicular non-compliant according to prevalent vehicular emission rules or are Emissions and overloaded (Overload vehicle emits more smoke) DTO Dust 8.2.2 Carry surprise checks to see if sand and coal laden vehicles are covered 8.3 Ban on burning of 8.3.1 Passing of by-law to ban burning of municipal waste in entire Head of all municipal district Local Bodies waste Also, the abandoned mines pose a huge opportunity for land reclamation. • Non-Attainment Cities Latehar is not in the list of Non-attainment cities. • Industrial Clusters Latehar is not a polluting industrial cluster. • Mining Activity Management Plan In Latehar, mining activities are mostly related with stone mining and related crusher activities. Stone crushers are huge source of Particulate Matter which not only leads to occupation illness of employees in the crusher units but also affects passers-by.

Figure 13. Map showing major stone mining area To control the same, the responsibility matrix is as follows:

Responsible Activity Objectives Functionaries 9.1.1 Submission of quarterly report on compliance of CTO by crusher units, no. of raids conducted and action taken on non- 9.1 Arrest of complying units Dust near 9.1.2 Compulsory installation of dust arrestors/sprinklers in crusher Crushers units RO, JSPCB 9.1.3 Installation of dust-cum-visual barrier around crushers 9.2 9.2.1 Distribution of dust preventive masks to each employee to Occupational achieve occupational safety Safety

Sustainable Sand Mining

MoEFCC as well as Jharkhand state has released guidelines related to sustainable sand mining. Jharkhand notified State Sand Mining Policy in 2017. The salient features of Jharkhand State Sand Mining Policy 2017 are as follows:-

• Preparation of District Survey Report • Categorization of Streams/River • Identification of the sand available in different order of streams such as 1st, 2nd, 3rd , 4th, 5th order or more shall be carried out by the District Survey Committee based on its size and capacity • Management of Sand Deposits of Category-1 Streams/Rivers • Management of Sand Deposits of Category-2 Streams/Rivers • The sand deposits of Category-1 stream/rivers will be kept fully free from domain of grant of mining lease. • The Sand deposits of Category-2 shall be managed by State Government According to above, each district was supposed to prepare District Survey Report (DSR), stating the available potential of mines in a district and also to arrive at sustainable mining rates for different sand mining Ghats. By the review of above suggestions DSR of Latehar should be updated. Responsibility matrix is as below: Responsible Activity Objectives Functionaries Geologist, 9.3 DSR 9.3.1 Updation of DSR to arrive at categorization of river streams, District Update and rate of annual sustainable sand mining (ghaat wise) Geology Office 9.4 9.4.1 Register maintenance by lease holder of Balu Ghats about the SP, DMO, Extraction amount of sand extracted from their lease area and its random Mining Task Volume checking Force, Register 9.5 Check 9.4.1 Complete ban on sand mining during monsoon on Illegal 9.4.2 Random Checking that no illegal extraction of sand is taking Sand from unleased balu ghats Mining
