River Gange Rejuvenation needs CPCB and SPCBs to work on compliance and enforcement. Increase minimum frequency of inspections to less than three months. Increase personnel and ask for more money to fund Engineers, Scientists, and Environmental Protection Specialists. Be careful not to hire too many attorneys. At one time USEPA had one Engineer to one Attorney on payroll. Legal Enforcement Authority takes time and slows process. 1,072 seriously polluting industries which are releasing heavy metals and pesticides. CPCB should consider another testing lab with AA and GS units for river Ganga. Pre-treatment of chromium is not easy. By- products NaCy used in chromium process. Problem if ph gets too low. CPCB and SPCBs need many years and funding. Environmental Challenge will take time. Under present India Rapid Assessment it can be done.
