During meeting of SEAC held on 30-09-2014,The committee observed that all the above proposals were for in-stream mining of sand. The committee was of the view that these projects cannot be appraised properly unless and until a study has been conducted by recognized institution to examine sand replenishment rate as well as impact of mining on plankton, benthic flora and fauna, turbidity downstream and other related environmental parameters. It was informed to the committee that Commissionerate of Geology and Mining (CGM) is going to undertake siltation study of rivers in Gujarat through a credible institute. After deliberations, considering that these projects could not be appraised in absence of a study to examine sand replenishment rate as well as impact of mining on plankton, benthic flora and fauna, turbidity downstream and other related environmental parameters; it was decided to close files of above projects. It was also decided to reopen

of 31

file of these projects upon submission of a detailed study reports of Tapi and Purna rivers by the CGM to the committee.

Vide letter NO: NGT/CGM/EC/2015/1838 dated 03-07-2015 addressed to Geologist( Lease), Head Office, Geology and Mining by Asst Geologist, DIst: Tapi stating " CGM is going to undertake siltation study of rivers in Gujarat through a credible institute and detailed study reports of Tapi and Purna rivers will be submitted to Committee".
