Tata Power’s Hydro Job Faces Delay Over Environmental Worries
MUMBAI– The Woodland Advisory Committee (FAC) has deferred Tata Power’s proposal to draw away 160 78 hectares of woodland land in Pune for an 1800 -MW Pumped Hydro Storage Space Job.
- The suggested site is within the eco-sensitive area of the Western Ghats.
- The task calls for dropping 64, 729 trees in a largely forested location.
- The FAC seeks environmental ministry talk about tasks in eco-sensitive areas.
- Worries exist concerning the job’s impact on local wildlife, consisting of leopards.
The state government claims the task will certainly not displace any human habitation, yet the FAC is scrutinizing its ecological impact. A Tata Power speaker decreased to comment.
