Pertaining to iron ore mines in Goa, the Expert Appraisal Committee (EAC) will not clear the environment clearances (ECs) of mining leases lying within 10 km of protected areas until the Union Ministry of Environment and Forest (MoEF) decides on buffer zones or the mining leases have permission from the national wildlife board. The EAC will examine the ECs of just four mining leases of the 54 leases that had been inspected by MoEF’s Bangalore regional office to verify whether they fulfilled the EC conditions.
