India: Water Act and territorial consent
Partial documentary review; human legal review pending. Water Act 1974 and its territorial 2024 amendment require review of adoption, exemptions and the competent consent. G.S.R. 63(E), under section 27A, amends central consent guidelines: it is a procedural update, not a table of effluent limits. Its procedure is not automatically extended to every state or facility; neither a complete consolidated base Act nor a current adoption map is established here.
- Identify state or territory, Pollution Control Board/Committee and current consent.
- Check adoption of amendments, exemptions and facility-specific standards; do not assign a single nationwide limit.
- Check territorial scope of section 27A/G.S.R. 63(E) and the specific consent; do not extend the procedure to every state.
