Continuous efforts are being made to enhance the coal production from underground mines. 113 nos of SDLs and 24 nos of LHDs has been procured in order to mechanize our underground mines. 4 EASTERN COALFIELDS LIMITED 6. The impact on the environment due to extraction of coal is being monitored constantly by our Company and adequate measures are undertaken for control of Air, Water & Noise Pollution, Land degradation, Deforestation etc. These measures are being undertaken in accordance with the provisions of all statutory norms, Acts and Rules on a regular basis.

We have always given the highest priority towards safety, which in ECL is considered as a part of core production process. To improve the safety standards, ECL has vigorously pursued several measures during the year. 9. Our Company has complied with the conditions of corporate governance as stipulated in the Guidelines on Corporate Governance for Central Public Sector Enterprises (CPSEs) issued by the Department of Public Enterprises, Government of India.
