Essential Detail Sought:
Sno.	EDS Letter	Remarks	Date of EDS
1.	NA	- Please inform about EC for the present molasses based distillery of 18 KLPD, and the compliance status thereof. - Whether the projected fresh water requirement of 250 cum/day would cater to the proposed expansion also.	15 Dec 2018
2.	NA	The correction have been made as per the instruction received	20 Dec 2018
3.	NA	In view of the clarification to our earlier observations, please confirm whether the proposed expansion would be achieved with up-gradation of the plant and there would be no increase in pollution load. Also please confirm the requirement of EC for the proposed 2 KLPD malt spirit plant vis-a-vis the schedule to the EIA Notification, 2006.	29 Dec 2018
4.	NA	The correction have been made as per the instruction received	03 Jan 2019
5.	NA	The proposal actually involves modernization cum expansion of distillery and needs to be examined vis-a-vis this Ministry's Notification dated 23/11/2016 for the requirement of EC. Proposed malt spirit plant of 2 KLPD requires appraisal/approval at the State level. In addition, requirement of 250 cum/day of ground water to meet present production of 18 KLPD is not justified and needs to be reworked out.	13 Jan 2019
