Revised guidelines for the centrally sponsored scheme of common effluent treatment plants (CETPs)
The Ministry of Environment & Forests (MoEF) has been implementing a centrally sponsored scheme for CETPs since 1991. In the light of the operational deficiencies in the earlier scheme, the development of pollution control technologies over the year and also the financial constraints on the part of SSI proponents and the recommendations of SPCBs related thereto, a need was felt to revise the earlier guidelines for central assistance to CETPs.
