White ware Cluster Khurza √NoAccess√A more detailed presentation of technology related impediments and constraints facedby individual cluster units in each of the sampled clusters belonging to both the PGBCsand SGBCs groups is presented in Tables 2.19(a) and 2.19(b) which form Annexure 2.1to this Chapter. These tables provide a more comprehensive perception of theconstraints faced by individual units in the cluster unlike the more general tablediscussed above which is primarily based on the perceptions of Cluster DevelopmentFunctionaries such as the CDE and others.2.11 Environmental Concerns in the ClustersEnvironmental concerns are fairly high on the agenda of policy makers these days, andregulatory measures draw a great deal of attention. Regulators have specificallytargeted industries, as they are known to be responsible for polluting the air and water.These problems arise largely on account of the improper treatment of effluents and safedisposal of toxic wastes. Our sampled clusters are involved in a fairly wide range ofindustrial activity and it is important to identify whether they generate environmentalconcerns.Table No-2.14: ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS IN THE SAMPLED CLUSTERSPrimary Goods Based ClustersSl Cluster GeneratesEnvironmentalConcernDoes notGenerate1.

White ware Cluster Khurza √It is seen in Table 2.14 that there are 12 sampled clusters which generate environmentalconcerns. Among these, there are 4 clusters which belong to the PGBC group and asmany as 8 clusters from the SGBC group. It is also reported that the remaining 10sampled clusters do not generate environmental concerns though there are doubtsregarding this issue especially in the case of the plywood cluster in Perimbavoor, the RiceFlakes cluster in Ahmedabad and the Rice Milling cluster in Karnal. If one takes this intoconsideration then the number of polluting clusters increases to 15 out of the 22 sampledclusters. With strict environmental regulation these clusters are likely to face problemsin their day to day functioning, some of them are already facing problems with theconcerned authorities who even go to the extent of closing down units which are not in aposition to address pollution issues.There are three major types of pollution that clusters generate these are air pollution,water pollution, and pollution caused by non-degradable toxic solid wastes. There maybe other forms of pollution also such as noise pollution, which affects not only theworkers but also neighbouring habitations.As seen in Table 2.15 air pollution seems to be the most widespread among our sampledclusters with as many as 12 clusters in our sample causing air pollution. There are 5sampled clusters that are reported to be causing water pollution and is drawing theincreasing attention of regulators. Moreover there are 2 clusters that generate pollutionthrough non-degradable toxic solid wastes.51
