"Does the Company identify and assess potential environmental risks? Yes. The environmental footprints are mapped during the project planning phase and based on impact assessment remedial measures are put in place during the operational phase. After September, 2006 gazette notification on Environmental Clearance of Ministry of Environment & Forests, all new and expansion projects of the Company are mandated to obtain prior environmental Clearance from MoEFCC before commencing operational activities. Environment Risk Assessment is also carried out as a part of Environmental Impact Assessment studies before the implementation of the projects. The company has implemented globally recognized environmental management system like ISO 9001, OHSAS 18001 and ISO 14001 at all its operational work centres."
