Resumen
The present appeals are about the decision on the disposal of waste after the Bhopal gas leak disaster. The State of Gujarat has challenged the order(s) passed by the High Court of Madhya Pradesh in these appeals. About 315 M.T.s of waste lying at Union Carbide India Ltd. factory at Bhopal was sought to be incinerated at BEIL, Ankleshwar in Gujarat. The Madhya Pradesh State Pollution Control Board sought a direction from the High Court of M.P. to incinerate the waste at Ankleshwar in Gujarat. This was objected to by the State of Gujarat This Court requested the Union of India (Ministry of Chemicals & Fertilizers) to constitute/have a High Level meeting/committee to discuss with the representatives of the States of Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh and to find out some reasonable solution for the disputes. The task force which was constituted pursuant to the directions of this Court had held a meeting on 05.01.2010 and took certain decisions and a copy of the Minutes of the Meeting so held by the task force has been produced before this Court. It was agreed that a conditional clearance would be given by Central pollution Control board CPCB for the trial run and stabilization of incinerator at TSDF, Pithampur and a joint inspection by CPCB and the State Pollution Control Board would be conducted. After the completion of the above task, the trial run permission will be given after the stabilization work is over and the trial run will first be conducted with other industrial waste.
