In accordance with Section 5 of the Air (P &CP) Act of 1981, the Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act of 1981, and the Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act of 1974, the Board's rules were also developed. The Project Proponent and Start-ups that desire to operate their business project must first obtain permission before establishing the Project anywhere in the State of Sikkim. Each Project, Industry, and Non-Industries unit has been classified into one of four groups based on the range that it falls under in the Pollution Index and Pollution Potential for Consent management: Red, Orange, Green, and White. Since the project must get authorization to operate by the specified date, approval to establish the project is not required because the project may already be established and in operation.
