Question
Consider the following statements regarding Eco
Sensitive Zones: 1.   They are declared under the Environmental (Protection) Act, 1986. 2.   They are a 10 km area around an Ecologically sensitive area Like National Park and canât be extended beyond 10 kms. Which of the statements given above is /are correct?Solution
The National Wildlife Action Plan (2002-2016) of the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEFCC) stipulated that state governments should declare land falling within 10 km of the boundaries of national parks and wildlife sanctuaries as eco-fragile zones or Eco-Sensitive Zones (ESZs) under the Environmental (Protection) Act, 1986. While the 10-km rule is implemented as a general principle, the extent of its application can vary. Areas beyond 10 km can also be notified by the Union government as ESZs, if they hold larger ecologically important âsensitive corridorsâ. The basic aim is to regulate certain activities around National Parks and Wildlife Sanctuaries so as to minimise the negative impacts of such activities on the fragile ecosystem encompassing the protected areas.
