FOCUS AREAS
PRESERVING BIODIVERSITY
Markhor is a large capra species native to Himalayas and it is listed on the IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature) red list as endangered species.
NER-II, the mega project spanning Assam, Tripura and Arunachal Pradesh, had a line passing around the “Borail Wild-life Sanctuary. We avoided “Borail Wildlife Sanctuary”, mapped active elephant-corridors, and ensured the transmission lines co-exist with wildlife by implementing bird deflectors, culverts, etc.
CARING FOR ENVIRONMENT
Construction of a linear project involve clearing the area for asset construction. This might impact trees as well. To ensure sustainable development, we are amongst the first in the transmission sector to implement tree translocation.
Construction of transmission projects on hilly terrain traditionally required head loading and use of animals like mules for material movement. These tasks are arduous, time taking, quite risky and impact the flora on ground.
