WII submitted its report on impacts of ERD technology on the above ground biodiversity of forest areas. The report also includes measures to mitigate the impact from oil and gas extraction close to wildlife habitats.<\/p>\n

Keeping in view the above study reports the Ministry vide letter dated 12.09.2023 has issued the detailed guidelines wherein Extended Reach Drilling Technology has been exempted from the purview of the Forest (Conservation) Act, 1980 in forest areas, located outside the Protected Areas and Eco-Sensitive Zones subject to certain conditions stipulated therein.<\/p>\n

The Government has not allocated any additional funds to State Governments, specifically State Pollution Control Boards to deal with the monitoring of the Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) prescribed in the guidelines dated 12.09.2023. However, it is pertinent to mention here that the ‘land’ is a subject matter of the State Government. The forest areas and the legal boundaries thereof are determined and maintained by the concerned State Government. It is the responsibility of the concerned State Government\/UT administration to ensure the compliance of all statutory provisions and the conditions stipulated in the guidelines dated 12.09.2023 issued by the Ministry.<\/p>\n
