Spread over two plots, within the above mentioned industrial estate, the steel unit's plan for development includes 9,000 square metres area next door to the current location. The Goa-SEAC's endorsement reportedly stipulates that this expansion area doesn’t go beyond the boundaries of the industrial estate.
The expert committee has reportedly asked the concerned authority, i.e., Goa State Environment Impact Assessment Authority (GSEIAA), to provide the terms & conditions of reference (ToR) to Shirdi Steel and Rollers. The move begins the procedure to get environmental clearance (EC) for the approaching expansion effort.
It’s mandatory that the re-rolling unit (secondary metallurgical processing industry) gets go-ahead in advance inside a year from the date of notification.
