CAG submitted comments on the Draft Amendment to the EIA Notification, 2006, which proposes exempting Common Municipal Solid Waste Management Facilities, including landfills and Waste-to-Energy plants, from prior environmental clearance. CAG’s experience in urban waste, environmental health, and climate governance highlights the need to ensure the framework remains robust, inclusive, and evidence-based to help strengthen the environmental safeguard architecture while enabling effective waste management systems nationwide.
