Industry worried about ramifications from Supreme Court's Odisha mining order -Meera Mohanty

BHUBANESWAR: The Supreme Court’s landmark order imposing an estimated Rs 25,000 crore penalty on iron ore and manganese miners in Odisha continues to rattle the sector, with serious implications for mining operations across the country and clearances obtained in the past.

The 144-page order has given ammunition to green activists to seek court orders against mines in Goa and other states, and strengthened their case in ongoing matters in various courts and tribunals, experts said.

Industry is worried. “The Supreme Court order in the case of Odisha will not only have repercussions for mining across the country, but coal mines operating without environment clearances and industries operating with clearances obtained under the 1994 Environment Impact Assessment notification,” said RK Sharma, Secretary General of the Federation of Indian Mineral Industries.

The Centre is evaluating the impact. “We are studying the order," Secretary Mines Arun Kumar said.

Environmentalists and policymakers say the order will have a wider fallout because of some clarifications the court has given on clearances, which would place thousands of entities across sectors on the wrong side of the law from at least 2010 onwards. These clarifications relate to conditions under which environment clearances (EC) are required and the environmental impact assessments notifications (EIA) of the environment ministry.
