Aago:
22 April 2021

Obtaining an Environmental Clearance Certificate (ECC) for mining and crushing units in Gujarat involves following specific regulatory procedures mandated by the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEF&CC), Government of India, and the Gujarat State Pollution Control Board (GPCB). The process typically adheres to the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Notification, 2006 (as amended), which provides a framework for granting environmental clearances.
Here is the step-by-step process for obtaining an ECC for mining and crushing units in Gujarat:

- Identify the project type and category under the EIA Notification, 2006:
- Mining and stone crushing activities typically fall under Category A or B, depending on the size and scale of operations.
- Category A projects require clearance from the central MoEF&CC, while Category B projects are handled by the State Environment Impact Assessment Authority (SEIAA) of Gujarat.
2.Preparation of Documents
Prepare the following essential documents:
- Application Form: Submit Form 1 and/or Form 1M (for minor minerals) as required by the EIA notification.
- Pre-Feasibility Report (PFR): Include project details, location, operational plan, and anticipated impacts.
- Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Report: For larger projects (Category A or B1), an EIA study must include a detailed analysis of environmental impacts and proposed mitigation measures.
- Consent from Local Authorities: Obtain local-level clearances, if applicable.
- Topographical Map: Share detailed maps showing the project area, surrounding terrain, and any environmentally sensitive zones.
3.Public Consultation
- Category A and B1 projects require a public consultation process under the EIA notification. The District Collector facilitates public hearings to gather feedback from affected communities and other stakeholders.
- Ensure public concerns raised during hearings are addressed in the final EIA report and mitigation plans.
4.Submission to SEIAA or MoEF&CC
- Submit your proposal via the Parivesh Portal, an online platform designed to manage environmental clearance applications.
- Upload all forms, reports, and documents to the portal.
- Pay the requisite application fees as prescribed under environmental regulations.
5.Technical Scrutiny
The SEIAA for Gujarat will evaluate the proposal:
- Expert Appraisal Committee (EAC)tabiState Expert Appraisal Committee (SEAC) reviews the technical details, environmental impacts, and mitigation strategies described in the application.
- Additional queries or suggestions might be requested by the committee.
6.Approval or Rejection
- After thorough examination, the ECC is either granted or rejected based on compliance and impact analysis.
- If approved, you receive the clearance certificate with stipulated terms and conditions that must be adhered to during operations.
7.Compliance Post-Clearance
Once clearance is obtained:
- Obtain consent under the Air Act, 1981, and Water Act, 1974 from the Gujarat Pollution Control Board (GPCB).
- Install pollution monitoring systems and ensure regular compliance with the conditions outlined in the ECC.
- Submit periodic compliance reports to the regulatory authorities.
Key Points to Note:
- Minor mineral mining projects typically require a less rigorous process (Category B2), with simplified forms (Form 1M) and no comprehensive EIA.
- Mining and stone crushing units near reserved forests, eco-sensitive zones, or protected areas may face additional scrutiny, and approvals from the Forest Department may be necessary.
- Engaging an accredited environmental consultant registered with the MoEF&CC can simplify the process and ensure regulatory compliance.
For up-to-date details and changes to the process, consult the Gujarat SEIAA website or the MoEF&CC guidelines.
