1 - 5 of 5 (0.46 seconds)Shree Nath Sharma vs Union Of India on 8 February, 2022
18. District Environment Plan of each District in terms of order of
this Tribunal dated 05.07.2021 in OA 360/2018, Shree Nath Sharma
vs. Union of India & Ors. should also cover the wetlands in the
District. If necessary, the said plans be revised accordingly by the
District Magistrates concerned by providing that the core activity
for conservation and protection of wetlands may primarily
focus on not discharging of sewage, disposal of solid waste
and other wastes, preventing siltation, demarcation of
wetlands/flood protection zone and removal of encroachments.
There should be regular monitoring of water quality under
water quality management programme at strategic locations
(around 10 locations) to ensure that it is compliant with TC/FC
norms. Water quality of the wetlands with respect to BOD
needs to be less than 3 mg/l, feacal coliform should meet norms
and contamination due to toxic constituents either directly or
through runoff from the catchment should be prevented.
Biodiversity of the wetlands needs to be maintained.
Monitoring of steps for compliance of Rules in relation to such
Wetlands ought to be at District level by the District
Magistrate, at State level by State Wetland Authority and at
National level by National Wetland Authority. We are confident
that such initiatives in monitoring will go a long way in
protecting the Wetlands which have significant environmental
functions."
