In the wake of Bhopal tragedy, the Government of India enacted the Environment (Protection) Act, 1986 (EPA) under article 253 of the constitution. The purpose of the Act is to act as an “umbrella” legislation designed to provide a frame work for Central government co-ordination of the activities of various central and state authorities established under previous laws, such as Water Act & Air Act. The potential scope of the Act is broad, with “environment” defined to include water, air and land and the inter-relationships which exist among water, air and land, and human beings and other living creatures, plants, micro-organisms and property. Environment protection rules were also enacted as a corollary to this Act.

Ideology/Purpose
Sentencing Structure
Effects
Example: Retribution
Example: Mandatory minimum
Example: Mandatory minimums are aimed at imposing fixed penalties for offenders committing similar crimes and typically result in tougher penalties for more serious offenders. Retribution refers to “just deserts” and “an eye for an eye.” According to the textbook, Corrections Today (2014), the goal of retribution is to impose punishment that holds the offender accountable and that is proportionate to the crime. Retribution is not concerned with future outcome, only that the offender is held accountable and that the appropriate punishment is granted (Siegel & Bartollas, 2014). A first-time nonviolent offender, then, should be treated less severely than a repeat offender. Mandatory minimum sentencing laws seem to be perfectly aligned with the goal of retribution. Laws such as three-strikes and truth in sentencing result in harsher penalties for repeat and/or violent offenders. It must be mentioned that mandatory minimums may interfere with other long term goals, such as struggles with reentry.

Unit Lesson
BOS 3125, Hazardous Materials Management
5
(NARA, 2011a)
Here we are, ready to start a course titled “Hazardous Materials Management,” but the first course unit and first chapter in the book are titled “Hazardous Waste.” What’s that about? Isn’t hazardous waste at the end of the lifecycle and more appropriate for the end of the course? Besides, safety practitioners aren’t responsible for hazardous waste; that’s an environmental thing, right?
In order to manage hazardous materials in the workplace effectively, we need to start with the end in mind; that is, what happens to the material when we are done with it. The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) of 1976 introduced us to the cradle to grave” concept of hazardous materials management by focusing efforts on the final disposal of hazardous substances (Haight, 2012). The improper disposal of industrial waste over many decades had created enormous health and environmental issues, as well as a nearly insurmountable cleanup problem.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has created regulations for the cleanup of contaminated waste sites, but more importantly, has forced industries to think about the materials they use, how they are stored and handled, and how they are to be discarded when no longer needed. The escalating cost of the disposal of hazardous wastes in accordance with EPA rules has caused many industries to change to materials that are less hazardous or change processes so that hazardous materials are no longer needed. Recycling and reuse of hazardous materials has become more cost-effective than disposal. One of the goals of RCRA is to prevent
future problems caused by irresponsible waste management (Haight, 2012). This goal is being achieved by managing the full lifecycle of hazardous materials.

HISTORICAL CONCEPT OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL LAW IN INDIA AND THE WORLD, ROLES OF MoEF, CPCB AND SPCB and 5 IMPORTANT POINTS ON AIR, WATER AND LAND POLLUTION FROM INDIAN ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS
The document outlines the structure and content of a presentation on environmental law and its influence on engineering design. It discusses the major sources and components of environmental law, including key federal statutes like the Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act, and Resource Conservation and Recovery Act. It also addresses how environmental laws can shape engineering design approaches through various regulatory mechanisms and performance standards. The presentation aims to help engineers understand and navigate relevant environmental legal obligations across a product's lifecycle.
This document summarizes several key pieces of environmental legislation in India:
- The Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) process was introduced in 1978 and later expanded under the Environment Protection Act of 1986. The EIA Notification of 2006 and draft 2020 amendment aim to streamline the assessment and approval process.
- Other major acts discussed include the Water Act of 1974, Air Act of 1981, Wildlife Protection Act of 1972, Biological Diversity Act of 2002, and National Green Tribunal Act of 2010. These acts established regulatory bodies like the Pollution Control Boards and addressed conservation, pollution control, and environmental justice.
- The overview discusses the objectives and roles of these key laws in protecting the environment and biodiversity in India.
The Environment (Protection) Act authorizes the Central Government to take measures to protect and improve environmental quality in India. This includes coordinating actions between state governments, establishing environmental standards, regulating industrial and construction activities that may cause pollution, enforcing procedures to prevent and respond to environmental accidents, and more. The Central Government may also establish authorities to exercise powers and functions on its behalf as outlined in the Act.
Environmental law means the laws that regulate the impact of human activities on the environment. Environmental law covers a broad range of activities that affect air, water, land, flora or fauna. It includes laws that relate to: Protection of animals and plants, planning for the use and development of land, Mining, exploration and extractive industries, Forestry, Pollution, Fisheries, Land and fire management, Agriculture and farming, Waste management, Climate change and emissions, Water resource management (lakes, wetlands, rivers and oceans), Chemicals and pesticides, Weeds and invasive species, Marine life, Conservation of natural and cultural heritage.
This document provides an overview of environmental policy and regulation. It describes key regulatory agencies at international, national, state, and local levels. Major environmental laws introduced in the past 10 years are discussed, including the Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act, and Endangered Species Act. The principles of environmental policy development and sustainability are also covered. Risk assessment and management processes are explained in the context of the overall policy-making process.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
