Explaining the Concept of OBJECT ORIENTATION by defining Object for a given area at CENTRE LEVEL through nationwide debate, dialogue and all such participatory processes followed for a period of 2 years to 3 years.

2.  Importance and need for Management
 Trasitional Eco-System between land and Water
 what is “Management”?
 The Term involves “Optimization” and not “ Hard
Coded Rules” imposing “BAN”
 Present Rules are exactly opposite and leave no
scope for optimization, but prescribe HARD CODED
RULES
 No Scope for “ Area Specific Management” and
considering the specific “Object” for a given
geographical unit
 Eventhough amendments are made in 2011
notification, giving relaxations to Mumbai, Goa and
Kerala, they cant be equated with “Freedom” and
so “Optimization” can never be achieved.

3. Fallacies in present CRZ Notification
No Technical Justification as to why CRZ shall
apply to building construction Activity?
The CRZ Notification Controls for “Industry,
Operation and Processes” is so WIDE
that it can even cover the “ activity of driving a
car” or “even walking along coastal roads”, as it
emits “ CO and Nox” or “CO2” in later case
500m or 100m Line is a MERE CATOGRAPHIC
CONTROL Line, with no concept of
“RELEIF/Elevation” aspects

4. No Reason to apply CRZ on HillTop, within 500m
range
History of last 20 years show that “ SLUMS”
and “Unauthorised Constructions” have increased
Many-folds in CRZ areas and “Authorised Buildings”
are Denied
No data to prove that “Coastal and marine
Biology” has shown improvement after CRZ was
inplemented and that itself is an EYE OPENER
Example of DEBIKA BEACH IN DAMAN

5. HTL line and its relevance:
The HTL which is the limit of CRZ is based on
the vulnerability analysis and if vulnerable.
a)Vulnerability can be ameliorated by using
proper protection majors like retaining wall.
b) When retaining walls or the protection
measures are not available, set back lines should
be followed. Hence, this needs to be included in
CRZ Notification.

6. Town Planning is a State subject and town
planning interventions planned by Planners in Govt.
of Maharashtra, if not allowed to be implemented
due to regulatory provisions of restrictive
environmental laws, the redevelopment in City of
Mumbai would be in danger facing survival in
another decade or so. The Planners in Mumbai
are faced with unplanned and unchecked
population growth due to migration from non
urban areas and assurance of better living
conditions and thriving economy in Mumbai.

7. It is pertinent to note that Housing
policy of Central Govt. acknowledges that
there is a migration from rural areas to
urban areas and in another two decades
or more the face of India would be about
50% Urban India instead of Rural. The
people are going to continue to migrate
and the challenge can be managed if we
can cope up with the change. It is
therefore, felt that the environmental
laws should lay down the
parameter/standard of living in terms of
emission standards to be achieved by
controlling pollution, instead of regulating
the development

8. Concept of OBJECT ORIENTATION
Define Object for a Given area at CENTRE
LEVEL through nationwide debate, dialogue and all
such participatory processes followed for a period
of even 2 years to 3 years
Let us define and divide such 8 to 10 Objects in
Coastal areas like Tourism, Ports, Ship Breaking
Industry, Housing Industry, Buffer areas around
such Objects defined, Mufessille areas which can
be attended after a span of say 15 years,
ecologically sensitive areas situated beyond above
objects

9. Once such areas/ Objects are
predefined, the CRZ regimes and rules
will vary, in those areas by giving
predominance to main Object.
Centre can give guiding principles for
such zones and State to make laws
For example, in Mumbai, “ Housing and
allied Construction” being an Object, the
CRZ rules will cover only “Pollution
related aspects” and not “FSI/FAR and
users………” as in any case industries will
not be there in Mumbai
Example of TANNARIES in DHARAVI
not shifted because of MPCB, but due to
land pricing in MUMBAI

10. In case of GOA, once TOURISM is defined
as “Principle Object”, CRZ rules will cot cover
any buffers, BAN on
HOTELS/MOTELS/Tourism related activity
near beaches.
Rather, facilities for the tourist to enjoy
beaches, waterfronts, water sports, marinas
will be encouraged
Cleaning of BEACHES and water quality at
beaches will be HARD CODED and strictly
monitored
Construction ON THE BEACH shall be
prohibited by suitable statute at State Level
