https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=191396 Environmental clearance for a thermal power project was upheld because the Central Government was not bound by the expert appraisal committee's opinion and had considered the relevant technical and ecological material before deciding. The clearance also was not invalidated for breaching coastal or ecologically sensitive area guidelines, as those safeguards were treated as context-dependent and the project had been re-sited with stringent pollution-control conditions, including stack, monitoring, and flue-gas measures. Concerns that the conditions might not be enforced were held premature, but any later relaxation of material environmental conditions required notice, hearing, and consideration of environmental consequences. en-us Tue, 19 Mar 1991 00:00:00 +0530 Tue, 25 Apr 2017 10:21:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=191396 Environmental clearance for a thermal power project was upheld because the Central Government was not bound by the expert appraisal committee's opinion and had considered the relevant technical and ecological material before deciding.
