The state government has issued guidelines for setting up of hot mix plants in the state and has directed their operators to follow the prescribed criteria for establishing such plants. A spokesperson of the Environment Department said a decision to this effect has been taken to maintain ecological balance in view of the industrial development and to maintain environment and avoid health hazard for the area residents.He said as per the prescribed norms, the minimum distance of the hot mix plant from the municipal limit should be five km and minimum distance from revenue phirni (lal dora, wherever there is no village phirni) would be one km. He said the minimum distance from the nearest National Highway would be one-and-half km. Similarly, the minimum distance from the nearest state highway would be one km and minimum distance from the nearest major district road and other roads would be 200 m. He said minimum distance from sensitive places like hospital, tourist spots, lakes, national monuments and national parks or wildlife sanctuaries or conservation reserves would be two km. He said the land required for each unit would be two acres. In future hot mix plant with the latest technology of pollution control measures having fabric filter with reverse air cleaner based on the principle of reverse air cleaning or dry dust collector (multi-cyclone) with multiple wet scrubbers would only be allowed. The elevators at loading section should be fully covered. There should be buffer green belt facing road and ‘abadi’ having width of 10 m with a minimum of three rows of plants. The emission standards required to be achieved included suspended particular matter (mg or normal cubic m). He said any other emission standards prescribed by the Union Ministry of Environment and Forest or Central Pollution Control Board or Haryana State Pollution Control Board in future would also be applicable.
