This has reference to your letter under reference and other letters
requesting for disposal of hazardous wastes generated by industries in Goa at
CHW TSDF, Taloja in Maharashtra. The matter was discussed in a meeting
between Principal Secretary and Chairperson, Maharashtra Pollution Control
Board, Member Secretary, MPCB and Secretary (Environment), Government
of Goa and a decision has been taken to permit disposal of only incinerable
hazardous wastes at CHW TSDF, Taloja.
It has also been decided that Goa state shall identify a suitable land for
developing its own secured landfill (SLF) site for the treatment and disposal of
the other hazardous wastes.
MPCB has examined the disposal cost issues related to the tariff, in
consultation with M/s. CRISIL Advisory Services. Accordingly the cost
sharing and compensation mechanism to be adopted for permitting the
disposal of incinerable hazardous wastes in Maharashtra has been decided.
In view of the above, permission is hereby granted to Goa State
Pollution Control Board to authorize industries in Goa to dispose incinerable
hazardous wastes at CHW TSDF, Taloja as per the terms and conditions
given below:

--2--
1) This permission is granted only for the disposal of incinerable hazardous
wastes at CHW TSDF at Taloja.
2) The CHW TSDF in Maharashtra operated by M/s. MWML at Taloja, Dist.
Raigad, shall not accept any other hazardous wastes from industries in the
state of Goa.
3) The total incinerable waste permissible to be brought in Maharashtra shall
not exceed 20,000 MT in the year 2006-07, in subsequent years it shall
not exceed 10,000 MT/year.
4) User industry shall pay Rs.1000/- (Rupees one thousand only) per tonne
of incinerable waste to MPCB as the commercial compensation for using
the incineration facilities at CHW TSDF, Taloja. This commercial
compensation shall be recovered by MPCB, since it has to authorize the
cross boundary movement of the incinerable waste under the Hazardous
Wastes (Management & Handling) Rules, 1989, as amended.
5) The treatment and disposal costs shall be paid, in advance, to CHW TSDF
and to MPCB. CHW TSDF shall not accept the wastes unless advance
payment is received by MPCB from the user industry. In case of default,
the Goa State Board shall forthwith withdraw/revoke the Authorization
granted under the HW(M&H) Rules and initiate further legal action.
6) The cost mentioned in 4 above is exclusive of the cost of treatment of the
incinerable waste that shall be separately charged and recovered by the
CHW TSDF facility operator as per tariff approved by MIDC (copy
attached).
7) The collection, transport, handling, treatment and disposal of the
incineration ash shall be strictly in accordance with the Hazardous Wastes
(Management and Handling) Rules, 1989, as amended from time to time
and the directions of Supreme Court of India in the matter of WP(Civil)
No.657 of 1995 and also orders of the Supreme Court Monitoring
Committee appointed by Ministry of Environment & Forests, Government
of India.
8) In addition, the agency responsible for the transportation of the incinerable
wastes shall be required to take authorization from Goa SPCB and MPCB,
separately and also provide insurance cover to for any accidental leakage
or spillage of the hazardous wastes during the transportation. MPCB shall
be made beneficiary of such insurance cover so that it can undertake the
relief work, as the case may be.
9) This permission is subject to satisfactory compliance of the above terms
and conditions. Any default on compliance of the above conditions may
result into cancellation of this permission.
Yours sincerely,
