These criteria include:
· The industry must use the best practicable means to prevent or limit the emission of the plant
· Any emission from the plant must comply with the emission limit value defined for the industry
· Any emission released from the plant must not result in disturbing the air quality and should be under the permissible air quality standards.
· Any emission from the plant from the plant must not cause significant amount of air pollution
All these above-discussed provisions are attached by the local authority as the condition related to the matter to provide the licence. On the contrary, this act also included the section to take the necessary action in dealing with the unauthorised emissions. According to the provision, when there is an emission from any of the premises, other than the specified situations such as emission under and in compliance with the licence granted in the act or an emission in compliance with the value within specified limit under the section 51 of the act or emission in accordance with direction for the specific best practicable means issues by the minister under the subsection 3 of the section 5 of this act, the individual can make the application to proper court, which may make an order needed by the occupier of the premises concerned to do the following:

These projects earn saleable certified emission reduction credits. These credits are equal to the one tonne of CO2. These credits are counted at...
