Unscientific exploitation by the erstwhile private entrepreneurs of coal resources in the past resulted in large scale degradation of the coalfield which has manifested in haphazard infrastructure development, depletion of green belt and overall ecological and environmental imbalances. Land, air, water and soil had been severely affected &amp; resulted in outbreak of coal mine fire as early as 1916. When BCCL took over the region was highly degraded and affected with fire and unstable areas, prone to subsidence. After nationalization of the coal mines in 1972-73, BCCL has been making all efforts to mine the coal resource under all possible means compatible to a clean and safe environment in the region. On account of multi-seam regime of the coalfield the reclamation process has become a challenge.<\/span><br \/><span style=\"color: #000000;\">BCCL recognizes importance of environment management and has taken corrective steps since nationalization and developing superior environment management system. In mining sector, BCCL contribution in introduction of Ecological restoration and Cluster concept for obtaining Environmental clearance is well recognized. For the first time ,<a style=\"color: #000000;\" title=\"cluster concept\" href=\"\/environment\/ClusterConcept.pdf\">cluster concept<\/a>\u00a0was formulated by BCCL for preparation of EIA-EMPs for grant of Environmental Clearances of its mines. Mines of BCCL were grouped into clusters based on Geo-Environmental rationale for environmental benefits. BCCL is pioneer in introduction of ecological restoration in mined out areas.<\/span><br \/><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Ecological restoration replicates natural forest for which BCCL prepared a Road map for ecological restoration through Forest Research Institute (FRI), Dehradun and constituted a dedicated team for successful implementation. BCCL is operating its mines &amp; washeries as per Environment Clearances granted by MOEFCC and submitting compliances regularly to regulatory authorities.
