Who Needs a HWRA NOC?

Any residential, commercial, or industrial project in Haryana that utilizes a borewell for groundwater extraction needs an HWRA NOC [1, 2]. Here are some resources that mention HWRA NOC:

• Groundwater NOC from Haryana Water Resource Authority: https://www.northernridge.earth/category/ground-water/

Documents Required for HWRA NOC:

The specific documents required for an HWRA NOC application may vary, but some commonly mentioned documents include:

• Pollution NOC (No Objection Certificate) from the State Pollution Control Board (may not be required in all cases) [1].
• Non-availability of water supply/water denial certificate from relevant authorities [1, 4].
• Impact Assessment Report of groundwater extraction on the surrounding area [1].
• Groundwater testing report from a NABL accredited laboratory [1].
• Completion certificate for the well/bore [1].
• NOC and permission from Wetland Authority (if the project area falls within 500 meters of a wetland zone) [1].
• Impact Assessment Report with Groundwater modeling for Over Exploited, Critical, and semi-critical zones (if applicable) [1].
• Water audit reports as per HWRA rules [1].

Process for Obtaining a HWRA NOC:

The HWRA website (https://hwra.org.in/) doesn't explicitly outline the application process. However, based on the information available online, here's a possible approach:

• Contact the HWRA: Reach out to the Haryana Water Resources Authority for the most up-to-date information on the application process and required documents. You can find their contact details on the website.
• Gather Documents: Compile all the necessary documents as per HWRA's guidelines.
• Submit Application: You might need to submit the application form and documents online or in person, depending on the HWRA's instructions.
• Processing and Fees: There may be processing fees associated with the application. The HWRA website should provide details on this.
• Site Inspection: HWRA might conduct a site inspection to verify the details mentioned in your application.
• NOC Issuance: Upon successful application review and site verification (if applicable), the HWRA will issue the NOC.

Important Points:

The validity period of an HWRA NOC is not readily available online. It's best to confirm this with the HWRA during your initial contact.
There might be specific conditions attached to the HWRA NOC, outlining limitations on water extraction and monitoring requirements.
