| Summary, etc. | Urbanization and industrialization has accelerated worldwide and various envirorunental problems have emerged. The Brown Agenda lists the most critical envirorunental problems as lack of water supply, inadequate waste management, inadequate pollution control, landuse problems and the interrelationships between them. The old forms of urban management and industrial regulation were inadequate to mitigate local envirorunental problems. There is growing realization that sustainable development should focus attention at the local level. Agenda 21 reveals that the majority of actions needed to achieve sustainable development must be taken at the local level and one of its major recommendations is that each local authority should develop a program and an action plan along the lines of Local Agenda 21. In response to these initiatives an Urban Envirorunental Management Plan at the municipal level will meet the requirements of attaining sustainable development. Tiruppur, a special grade Municipality in Tamilnadu State, India is a booming and rapidly growing town with strong economic base due to the concentration of textile and knit wear industries. The study revealed Tiruppur, like any other town facing rapid urbanization and industrialization is host to a number of envirorunental problems from both domestic as well as industrial sectors. No cohesive integrated approach to solve the envirorunental problems has been attempted by the municipal authority and other related institutions. However, initiatives have started to facilitate formulation of urban envirorunental management plans at local level with recent amendments to the constitution. The 74th Amendment to the constitution assigns environmental protection at the local level to the local authorities with active citizen participation. In addition, the Envirorunental Action Program of India focuses on envirorunental policies pertaining to envirorunental management by the local bodies. It is against this background that the feasibility of an UEMP for Tiruppur has been explored as the theme for this study. As a part of the study, the existing envirorunental situation due to infrastructure deficiencies were analyzed based on the norms adopted by the state goverrunent. New projects have been proposed to meet the gaps. The study also discusses in detail the existing initiatives with regards to private sector participation for the Water Supply and Sewerage Project. In addition, the study explores and identifies key potential components, which contribute to the framing of an UEMP and an action plan. Two critical components of the Urban Envirorunental Management Plan that have been analyzed are the envirorunental policy that envisages protection of envirorunent and the legal framework, which facilitates the same. It describes the systematic steps to be followed in the formulation of an UEMP and attempts to detail out the responsibilities of the various institutions and agencies involved. |
