Policy on Controlling Smog MCQs 2017

Immediate Actions (فوری اقدامات) –

Environment Protection Department (ماحولیاتی تحفظ محکمہ) پنجاب اور خطے میں Rice Stubble Burning (چاول کے بھوسے کو جلانے) کی سرگرمیوں کی قریبی نگرانی کرے گا۔
اس مقصد کے لیے مختلف ذرائع سے حاصل شدہ Satellite Data (سیٹلائٹ ڈیٹا) بشمول Space and Upper Atmosphere Research Commission (SUPARCO) (سپارکو) کا استعمال کیا جائے گا۔
تمام متعلقہ اداروں کو بروقت اطلاع دی جائے گی تاکہ وہ مناسب Mitigation Measures (کمی لانے کے اقدامات) اختیار کر سکیں۔
یہ معلومات Environmental Protection Agency (ماحولیاتی تحفظ ایجنسی) کے مانیٹرنگ اسٹیشنز سے حاصل کردہ Air Quality Parameters (ہوا کے معیار کے پیمانے) سے بھی مکمل کی جائیں گی۔

چونکہ Open Burning (کھلے عام جلانا) اسموگ (Smog) کا ایک بڑا ذریعہ ہے،
اس لیے ہر سال اکتوبر کے آغاز میں Home Department (داخلہ محکمہ) چاول کے بھوسے، ٹھوس فضلہ اور دیگر Hazardous Materials (خطرناک مواد) کو جلانے پر مکمل Ban (پابندی) عائد کرے گا۔
یہ پابندی متعلقہ Deputy Commissioners (ڈپٹی کمشنرز) اور District Police Officers (ضلعی پولیس افسران) کے ذریعے نافذ کی جائے گی۔
اسی طرح Agriculture (زراعت) اور Local Government Departments (مقامی حکومت کے محکمے) اپنی فیلڈ دفاتر کو اس سلسلے میں ہدایات جاری کریں گے۔

اگر کسی Forecast (پیش گوئی) یا Actual Smog Event (حقیقی اسموگ واقعہ) کا امکان یا وقوع ہو،
تو فوری Advisories (ہدایات) درج ذیل انداز میں جاری کی جائیں گی:

(A) Environment Protection Department (ماحولیاتی تحفظ محکمہ) —

یہ محکمہ تمام متعلقہ محکموں کو Air Quality Index (AQI) (ہوا کے معیار کے اشاریے)،
خصوصاً PM2.5 اور دیگر پیمانوں کی بنیاد پر Advisory (ہدایت) جاری کرے گا۔

(B) Primary and Secondary Health Care Departments (ابتدائی و ثانوی صحت کے محکمے) —

یہ محکمے Health Advisory (صحت سے متعلق ہدایت) جاری کریں گے اور اسے زیادہ سے زیادہ عام کریں گے،
جس کے لیے Paper (کاغذی)، Electronic (الیکٹرانک) اور Social Media (سوشل میڈیا) کے ذرائع استعمال کیے جائیں گے۔

(C) Additional Inspector General of Traffic (اضافی انسپکٹر جنرل ٹریفک) —

یہ ادارہ سڑکوں کے استعمال سے متعلق ہدایات جاری کرے گا،
جن میں متوقع یا موجودہ Visibility Levels (نظر آنے کی سطح) اور ان کے Safe Road Use (سڑک کے محفوظ استعمال) پر اثرات واضح کیے جائیں گے۔

اگر صورتحال اس حد تک سنگین ہو جائے،
تو متاثرہ اضلاع میں اسکولوں اور عوامی مقامات پر Masks (ماسک) تقسیم کیے جائیں گے،
جو متعلقہ Deputy Commissioners (ڈپٹی کمشنرز) کے ذریعے انجام پائے گا۔

اسی طرح، ایسی Steel Furnaces (سٹیل بھٹیاں) اور دیگر Industrial Units (صنعتی یونٹس)
جو Emission Control Equipment (اخراج قابو کے آلات) کے بغیر یا Substandard Fuels (غیر معیاری ایندھن) استعمال کر رہی ہوں،
انہیں Environmental Protection Agency (ماحولیاتی تحفظ ایجنسی)، متعلقہ Deputy Commissioner اور District Police Officer کے تعاون سے بند کرے گی۔

Air Pollution Indices (ہوا کی آلودگی کے اشاریے) جو “Annex A” میں دیے گئے ہیں،
کسی بھی وقت ممکنہ Hazard Levels (خطرے کی سطحوں) کو مقداری طور پر طے کرتے ہیں تاکہ مخصوص Actions (اقدامات) اختیار کیے جا سکیں
اور اسموگ کے مضر اثرات کو اس سطح پر کم کیا جا سکے۔
یہ مختلف نوعیت کے اقدامات پر مشتمل ہوں گے جنہیں Environmental Protection Agency متعلقہ محکموں کو عملدرآمد کے لیے تجویز کرے گی۔

Short to Long Term Action Plan (مختصر تا طویل المدتی عملی منصوبہ) –
ایک جامع Action Plan (عملی منصوبہ) “Annex B” میں دیا گیا ہے،
جس میں اسموگ کے واقعات پر قابو پانے اور انہیں کم کرنے کے لیے کیے جانے والے اقدامات
اور ہر محکمے کی Responsibilities (ذمہ داریاں) واضح طور پر بیان کی گئی ہیں۔
ان اقدامات کی مختصر وضاحت درج ذی
