 Environmental Management System (EMS)
Framework for managing an organization’s environmental responsibilities so they
become more efficient
Environmental considerations or requirements integrated into day-to-day
practices and overall operations
The EMS helps to ensure compliance and to continuously improve overall
environmental performance
All post organizations are integrated into the EMS
The EMS includes measurable environmental goals, objectives, and targets that
are reviewed and updated annually

Prepared By: DASCO Reviewed By: (Agency Manager) Approved by (Date & Sign): CSCEC Director
 Guidance
ISO 14001 is a specific EMS framework
International Organization for Standardization (ISO) developed several
voluntary international standards for management of different types of
systems
ISO 14001 is a systematic approach to environmental management or a
“systems approach” for achievement of continual improvement

 Aspects and Impacts
ASPECT:
An element of an organization’s activities, products, or services that can interact
with the environment
IMPACT:
Any change to the environment, whether adverse or beneficial, wholly or partly
resulting from an organization’s activities, products, or services
In summary:
 ASPECT = the cause
 IMPACT = the effect

 Significant Aspects
Seven significant aspects has been identified as part of the EMS implementation
process based on:
 Frequency
 Environmental Impact
 Mission Impact
 Regulatory Impact
 Community Concerns
The following have been identified as significant aspects:
 Depletion of Natural Resources  Soil Degradation  Air Emissions 
 Hazardous Waste  Solid Waste
 Noise  Spills/Releases

Prepared By: DASCO Reviewed By: (Agency Manager) Approved by (Date & Sign): CSCEC Director
 Examples of Aspects and Impacts
All personnel should be familiar with both the significant aspects and related actual or
potential impacts associated with their work

 Operational Controls
Operational controls are used to ensure proper management and
control of activities associated with the significant aspects
Operational controls are developed and maintained both by DPW-
ENRD and by organizational personnel
The following slide has a matrix that shows some of the operational
controls that have been developed and the associated significant
aspects

 EMS Documents
EMS documents should include information for managing the overall EMS as well as
operational controls relating to the significant aspects
The Master Document List should include all the controlled documents associated with the
EMS and the date of the most recent revision

Prepared By: DASCO Reviewed By: (Agency Manager) Approved by (Date & Sign): CSCEC Director
 Master Document List Excerpt

A document number is assigned to each procedure, form, and work instruction for
document control purposes
The document title briefly describes the content or purpose of the document
The initial issue date is when the document was developed and incorporated into the EMS
The revision date indicates the date of the most recent update to the document
The revision number indicates the number of revisions to the original document; all
personnel are responsible for having and utilizing the correct version of all documents

Prepared By: DASCO Reviewed By: (Agency Manager) Approved by (Date & Sign): CSCEC Director
 Roles and Responsibilities
Roles and responsibilities are defined in the EMS procedures as well as in the operational
controls
Installation personnel are responsible for determining if their activities affect any of the
significant aspects and whether any operational controls associated with these aspects are
applicable to their operations
Environmental Officers and Environmental Points of Contact (EPOCs)
Receive training that covers environmental requirements
Should assist with applicability determination for operational controls and other EMS
procedures
Ensure environmental requirements are met within their organization
Organizations on post for a short duration should contact DPW-ENRD for guidance with
meeting environmental requirements

 EMS Conformance
EMS as a framework is used to:
Ensure more efficient management of the installation’s environmental
programs;
Help stay in compliance with regulatory requirements; and
Help continuously improve overall environmental performance.
EMS is mission-focused and integrated into all installation activities
EMS conformance is essential to continued success of the environmental
programs
The EMS status is checked annually through the internal EMS audit as well as
through quarterly compliance audit systems

 E-waste- discarded electronic devices like computer, TV, music systems etc.
 Liquid waste- water used for different industries eg tanneries, distilleries, thermal power
plants
 Plastic waste- plastic bags, bottles, buckets etc.
 Metal waste- unused metal sheet, metal scraps etc.
 Nuclear waste- unused materials from nuclear power plants

 Solid Waste
7.2 million tonnes of hazardous waste
One Sq km of additional landfill area every-year
Rs 1600 crore for treatment & disposal of these wastes
In addition to this industries discharge about 150 million tonnes of high volume low
hazard waste every year, which is mostly dumped on open low lying land areas.

 Growth of Solid Waste
Waste is growing by leaps & bounds
In 1981-91, population of Mumbai increased from 8.2 million to 12.3 million
During the same period, municipal solid waste has grown from 3200 tonnes to 5355 tonne,
an increase of 67%
Waste collection is very low for all Indian cities
City like Bangalore produces 2000 tonnes of waste per annum, the ever increasing waste has
put pressure on hygienic condition of the city

Prepared By: DASCO Reviewed By: (Agency Manager) Approved by (Date & Sign): CSCEC Director
 Waste Collection
Primarily by the city municipality
No gradation of waste product eg bio-degradable, glasses, polybags, paper shreds etc
Dumps these wastes to the city outskirts

Local raddiwala / kabadiwala (Rag pickers)

Collecting small iron pieces by magnets
Collecting glass bottles
Collecting paper for recycling

MCD- Sophisticated DWM (Delhi Waste Management) vehicle

 How solid waste affected us in recent years?
Cloudburst in Mumbai (2005) clogged the sewage line due to large no. of plastic bags
Blast in the Bhusan Steel factory at Noida, caused due to imported scrap from Iran
Reduction in the number of migratory birds due to consumption of contaminated foods
Stray animals dying on streets and farmland due to consumption of plastic bags, which
blocks the food movement in their stomach

 Hazardous / Toxic Waste & Dumping Site

Industrialized countries have waste management problems

Developed countries have strict environment regulation norms
Most attractive option for them- to dump into developing countries

 Philadelphia’s Municipal Waste

16 years journey for the cargo ship to eleven countries and four continents
25,000 tonnes of flyash came back to Philadelphia’s garbage dump
Several government refused cargo ships
In 2002, Cargo ship returned back to US

 Major Polluting Industries
Around 2500 tanneries discharge 24 million cu m of waste water containing high level of
dissolved solids and 4,00,000 tonnes of hazardous solid waste
300 distilleries discharge 26 million kilo-liters of spend wash per year containing several
pollutants
Thermal power plants discharge huge waste materials

 Managing Waste
Recycling: Processing of a waste item into usable forms.
Benefits of recycling:
Reduce environmental degradation
Making money out of waste
Save energy that would have gone into waste handling & product manufacture

Saving through recycling:

When Al is resmelted- considerable saving in cost
Making paper from waste saves 50% energy
Every tonne of recycled glass saves energy equivalent to 100 litres of oil

 Recycling not a solution to all problems!

Recycling is not a solution to managing every kind of waste material

For many items recycling technologies are unavailable or unsafe

In some cases, cost of recycling is too high.

 Solution: More Profit With Zero Waste
Exchanging output that are considered waste
Waste of one could be input or raw material for others
Evolving a closed system- matter & energy circulate within
System was not designed to be so
The system of exchange evolved in 10 years

 Problems in Dealing With Solid Waste
Education & voluntary compliance
Collection of waste
Technological interventions
Institutions & regulatory framework
Absence of mandatory standards for waste reduction
Market action for waste reduction
