Abstract

The Dhamra port project in Orissa is on the verge of getting environmental clearance from the Union Government. The clearance will be granted by the Empowered Committee for Environmental Clearance of the Ministry of Surface Transport. In a recent amendment to the CRZ rules, the MoST can grant clearance for coastal development projects if (1) the port is within existing port limits (2) the coastal zone is not CRZ 1, and (3) it is the expansion of existing port. In this instance, the government have taken advantage of the fact that a port existed at Dhamra in the 19th century and early part of the 20th century. Currently, the ‘port’ at Dhamra is little more than a fishing jetty.
