Social and environmental screening
Environmental and social screening enables the envisaged risks to be addressed at the very beginning
of designing and conceptualizing the implementation of the expansion or the green-field
development. The two main objectives of environmental and social screening are to:
► Enhance the environmental and social sustainability of a proposed project. This aspect of
screening focuses on the environmental and social benefits of a project.
► Identify and manage environmental and social risks that could be associated with a proposed
project. This aspect of screening focuses on the possible environmental and social costs of an
intervention and may point to the need for environmental and social review and management.
Social screening
As per World Bank guidelines TCSP has a two-tier approach 33 to Social Screening Process (SSP) as
defined by World Bank which is as follows;
► No Social Screening Process (NSSP) is applicable if,
Expansion/modernization of an existing TC takes place within its existing complex/campus
and/or within an established and operational sites such industrial estates, industrial parks,
export promotion zones etc.
New TC is to be established within established and operational sites such as industrial estates,
industrial parks, export promotion zones etc.
► Full Social Screening Process (FSSP) is applicable if a new TC is to be established on land
acquired from private title holders and/or on Government land under different tenure systems
provided by the Government to establish a new Centre
► Indigenous People’s Social Screening Process (IPSSP) will be undertaken
If a new TC is to be established in an area with high indigenous population comprising tribal
populace and
If the area is covered by Govt. Policies and Plans such as Tribal Sub Plans and Panchayati Raj
Extension to Scheduled Areas
Further, Resettlement Policy Framework (RPF) applies to all components of Technology Centre
Systems Program that requires acquisition of private land and transfer of Government/public land
and that are likely to have adverse social impact including involuntary resettlement.
