Conceptual Facets of EIABench marking against the performance of other processes or against the competitorsA comparison of cost assessments is given below:Conventional cost accounting (CCA): Direct and indirect financial costs andRecognized contingent costsTotal Cost Assessment (TCA): A broader range of direct, indirect, contingent andless quantifiable costsFull Cost assessment (FCA): TCA and External social costs borne by society2.3.1.4 Environmental audit/statementKey objectives of an environmental audit include compliance verification, problemidentification, environmental impact measurement, environmental performancemeasurement, conforming effectiveness of EMS, providing a database for correctiveactions and future actions, developing companies environmental strategy, communicationand formulating environmental policy.The MoEF, Government of India (GOI) issued Notification on ‘EnvironmentalStatements’ (ES) in April, 1992 and further amended in April 1993. As per theNotification, the industries are required to submit environmental statements to therespective State Pollution Control Boards (SPCBs). ES is a pro-active tool for selfexaminationof the industry to reduce/minimize pollution by adopting processmodifications, recycling and reusing of the resources. The regular submission of ES willindicate the systematic improvement in environmental pollution control being achievedby the industry. In other way, specific points in ES may be used as environmentalperformance indicators for relative comparison, implementation and to promote betterpractices.2.3.1.5 Environmental benchmarkingEnvironmental performance and operational indicators could be used to navigate, manageand communicate significant aspects and give enough evidence of good environmentalhouse keeping. Besides the existing prescribed standards, an insight to identify theperformance indicators and prescribing schedule for systematic improvement inperformance of these indicators will yield better results.Relative indicators may be identified for different industrial sectors and be integrated incompanies and organizations to monitor and manage the different environmental aspectsof the company, to benchmark and compare two or more companies from the same sector.These could cover water consumption, wastewater generation, energy consumption,solid/hazardous waste generation, chemical consumption etc., per tonne of final product.Once these bench marks are developed, the industries which are below the benchmarkmay be guided and enforced to reach the level and those which are better than thebenchmark may be encouraged further by giving incentives, etc.2.3.1.6 Environmental indicatorsIndicators can be classified in to environmental performance indicators (EPI) andenvironmental condition indicators (ECI). The EPIs can be further divided into twocategories i.e., operational performance indicators and management performanceindicators.TGM for Tanneries August 20102-4
Conceptual Facets of EIAThe operational performance indicators are related to the process and other operationalactivities of the organization. These would typically address the issue of raw materialconsumption, energy consumption, water consumption in the organization, the quantitiesof waste water generated, other solid wastes & emissions generated from theorganization, etc.Management performance indicators are related to management efforts to influenceenvironmental performance of organizational operations.The environmental condition indicators provide information about the environment.These indicators provide information about the local, regional, national or globalcondition of the environment. This information helps an organization to understand theenvironmental impacts of its activities and thus help in making decision to improve theenvironmental performance.Indicators basically used to evaluate environmental performance against the set standardsand thus indicate the direction in which to proceed. Selection of type of indicators for afirm or project depends upon its relevance, clarity and realistic cost of collection and itsdevelopment.2.3.2 Tools for action2.3.2.1 Environmental policyAn environmental policy is a statement of an organization’s overall aim and principles ofaction w.r.t the environmental, including compliance with all relevant regulatoryrequirements. It is a key tool in communicating environmental priorities of theorganization to all its employees. To ensure an organization's commitment towards aformulated environmental policy, it is essential that top management be involved in theprocess of formulating the policy and setting priorities. Therefore, the first step is to getthe commitment from the high level of management. The organization should thenconduct an initial environmental review and draft an environmental policy. This draftshould be discussed and approved by the board of directors. The approved environmentalpolicy statement should then be communicated internally among all its employees andshould also be made available to the public.2.3.2.2 Market-based economic instrumentsMarket based instruments are regulations that encourage behavior through market signalsrather than through explicit directives regarding pollution control levels. These policyinstruments such as tradable permits, pollution charge, etc., are often described asharnessing market forces. Market-based instruments can be categorized into thefollowing four major categories, which are discussed below:Pollution Charge: Charge system will assess a fee or tax on the amount of pollutiona firm or source generates. It is worthwhile for the firm to reduce emissions to thepoint, where its marginal abatement cost are equal to the tax rate. Thus firms controlpollution to different degrees i.e., High cost controllers – less; low-cost controllers –more. The charge system encourages the industries to reduce the pollutants further.The collected charges can form a fund for restoration of the environment. Anotherform of pollution charge is a deposit refund system, where consumers pay a surchargewhen purchasing a potentially polluting product, and receive a refund on return of theTGM for Tanneries August 20102-5
