TISCO hopeful about environmental nod for Gopalpur Industrial Park

Hopeful about securing environmental clearance for its proposed Industrial park at Gopalpur by October, a top Tata Steel official said. “We have already obtained CRZ (coastal regulation zone) nod for Gopalpur project and hopeful of getting environmental clearance by October,” Tata Steel Managing Director H M Nerurkar told reporters after meeting Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik. Tata Steel, in possession of the land for nearly 20 years, is planning to set up the industrial park at Gopalpur. While the domestic steelmajor would be the anchor tenant at the proposed industrialpark by setting up its own Ferrochrome Plant and a steel Rebar mill, it was hoping of getting good tenants. “With Tata Steel as anchor tenant, there is no problem in getting other investors at the proposed industrial park. I will not reveal their names now. But a good number of investors have expressed their interest to set up their units at Gopalpur,” Nerurkar said.
