INDUSTRIAL ESTATE PHASE-III (INDUSTRIAL MODEL TOWNSHIP), TEHSIL SAMPLA, ROHTAK, HARYANA BY HSIIDC Reply to the EDS dated 14.06.2019 EDS: Any proposal is considered submitted only after the application is accepted by the Member Secretary. In fact, this application is not yet submitted. In the instant case, EDS was raised on 13.08.2018 but reply was given on 07.02.2019 i.e. after expiry of ToR. Therefore, Ministry directed that first apply for extension of ToR validity and then for EC before the expiry of outer limit of ToR, which is 4 years from the date of issue of ToR. Reply: As per the acknowledgement (copy enclosed as Annexure – I) issued by MoEFCC after submission of FEIA/EMP report of the project, EC application of this case was submitted on 03rd Aug., 18 i.e. within the validity period of ToR. The acknowledgement of FEIA/EMP report of the project dated 03rd Aug., 18 reads as follows: The proposal has been successfully uploaded on the portal of Ministry An email will be sent seeking additional information, if any. Once verified, an acceptance letter shall be issued to the project proponent. From the above, we may infer that Submission and Acceptance of an EC application are two different terms. As regards the validity of ToR, the General guideline no. 8 of ToR letter no. 21-138/2015-IA.III dated 12th Jan., 16 (copy enclosed as Annexure – II) issued for the project by MoEFCC states that ‘The prescribed ToR would be valid for a period of three years (i.e. upto 11th Jan., 19) for submission of the EIA/EMP report’. Therefore, validity of ToR is a question only till submission of FEIA/EMP report, not its acceptance. Hence, we have complied with MoEFCC’s OM dated 29th Aug., 17 and submitted the FEIA/EMP report of project on 03rd Aug., 18, within the validity period of ToR issued by Ministry. In view of the above, we request your good self to kindly consider our project in the agenda of upcoming EAC meeting and oblige us. With regards.
