Tackling the challenge of River Pollution Problem analysis
Multi – stakeholder approach
Action plans & performance
Impact & Performance Monitoring
The current situation is above the danger mark
The River pollution problem has far reaching effects on many aspects of life. A few examples • India’s 14 major and 55 minor rivers receive over a million tonnes of sewage/ day • Most rivers running over D levels (excessive levels – unfit ) of pollution levels • Ganga polluted over 5000 times permissible levels • Stretches of Yamuna devoid of all aquatic life for over a decade • High percentages of Fluoride, Arsenic, Nitrate etc. which cause severe environmental and physical damage
River pollution in India has enormous environmental, economic, social, health related implications. It is an issue which demands immediate action. Problem analysis
Multi – stakeholder model
Action plans & performance
Impact & Performance Monitoring
Involvement of all the stakeholders is crucial to handle the enormous task Numerous Unilateral Government efforts have failed to produce any tangible results. Rivers in India are increasingly getting polluted every second
•Any one solution or plan might have short term, or limited results for e.g. in Project Ganga • The enormous task can be handled better with an involvement of all stakeholders • A multi pronged, multi – contributor approach is required to handle this project Problem analysis
Industries NGOs Society
Multi – stakeholder model
Action plans & performance
Government bodies & Public Private partnerships
Impact & Performance Monitoring
Various stakeholders are the ones who are directly or indirectly involved with the issue The rationale for involvement of following stakeholders
Government Agencies • Legislative, Executionary & Judicial bodies provide a basic framework for the pollution control • Have already initiated a number of pollution control projects • Sole authority to implement laws and enforce standards
Public Private partnerships • Initiation of public private partnerships for this specific sector can lead to more effective utilization of resources, as proved by successful ventures abroad • Rapid deployment of state of art technology, owing to profit motives
Industries • Major sources of river pollution, hence responsible for pollution control & largely responsible for success of the pollution control ventures
Society • Biggest contributor and victim of river pollution Problem analysis
Multi – stakeholder model
Action plans & performance
Impact & Performance Monitoring
Specific action plans for each of the stakeholders is essential to clarify roles and bring ownership
Government • Increasing efficiency in enforcing pollution control regulations • Bringing about stringent regulations for the pollution control • Consideration of environmental factors while framing policies • Empowerment of pollution control boards - Thousands of cases, handful of convictions • Economic incentives, tax subsidies for pollution control Problem analysis
Multi – stakeholder model
Public Private Partners • Deployment of state of technology for pollution control for example – Reverse osmosis filters etc. • Efficient utilization of funds for pollution control projects • Accountability for tangible performance standards • Speedy and efficient execution of projects
Action plans & performance

Society
• Stringent following of the pollution control regulations • Steps to become Carbon and water positive at least neutral • Consideration of environmental impact as a business policy • Treatment of waste water at source • Compulsory Recycling and treatment of water
• Active participation in river pollution control mechanisms • Awareness and following waste water management, solid waste management etc. • Use or organic fertilizers, pesticides • Responsible use of water bodies
Initiatives which are important for river pollution control are – economic initiatives, institutional interventions, eco – entrepreneurship etc. Problem analysis

Performance monitoring and impact analysis are crucial for the success of various initiatives To ensure effectiveness of various initiatives and implement them successfully, performance & impact measurement is critical. Various cost effective measures of monitoring are present which can be deployed
