Haryana State Policy for the Scientific Handling and Reuse of Liquid Waste, Solid Waste and Ground Water extraction by Bulk Waste Generators 1. Introduction
The food and beverage industry in India are growing at a faster rate with varied culinary habits and changing life style. In India there are vast variety of hotels and restaurants, Majority of hotels and restaurants are small traditional hotels which are found along the highways, these outlets provide inexpensive accommodation for travellers and source all of their food locally, according to the estimated 300,000 hotels in India, only 2,050 are considered the modern or "organized" hotel sector. (Mishra, 2011) Nevertheless, as foreign and domestic travel has increased manifold in recent years.
As this sector is experiencing very high demand and highly unorganised it is very difficult to assess the number of Restaurants/ Dhabas/ Motels/ Hotels/ Marriage Gardens/ Banquet Halls.
2. Preamble

4. Environmental Issues
The disposal of waste is major issue in Restaurants/ Dhabas/ Motels/ Hotels/ Marriage Gardens/ Banquet Halls etc. These commercial establishment generate varied kind of waste mostly kitchen waste, sewerage and dry waste. Some 18,000 tonnes of carbon emissions are generated by food-related road traffic each year, much of it linked to restaurants; 75 per cent of the 600,000 tonnes of glass bottles junked every year by restaurants, cafés, bars, hotels and clubs never gets even close to a recycling plant; and a third of the food ordered by the trade is thrown away. So, right now, that distracting dinner for two is very much part of the problem. (McIvor, 2010).
Most of the Restaurants/ Dhabas/ Motels/ Hotels/ Marriage Gardens/ Banquet Halls are located on highways and thus are far from settlement of urban areas. Due to this very reason, these areas lack sewer network and at times lack solid waste management facility.
Analysing the waste from a food and beverage outlet will give a better understanding of the waste profile in order to devise ways of reducing and utilizing the waste. Environmental impacts of food waste in landfills are far greater than of packaging in landfills. Infact, food waste is 5 times more impactful in a landfill than packaging waste.
Food waste in landfills creates methane gas, which is a greenhouse gas 20 times more potent than CO2. All the resources that go into growing, producing, and shipping food is wasted if it is not consumed and thrown away. Wastewater is generated from washing of raw food materials, washing of utensils, washing of floors, etc. which is also a major environmental concern.
5. Waste Water Management
- Typical values for the ratio of BOD/COD for untreated municipal wastewater are in the range from 0.3 to 0.8. If the BOD/COD ratio for untreated wastewater is 0.5 or greater, the waste is considered to be easily treatable by biological means. If the ratio is below about 0.3, either the waste may have some toxic components or acclimated micro-organisms may be required in its stabilization. ↩
Waste water comes out of Restaurants/ Dhabas/ Motels/ Hotels/ Marriage Gardens/ Banquet Halls can be divided into two grey water and sewer water. Restaurants/ Dhabas/ Motels/ Hotels/ Marriage Gardens/ Banquet Halls wastewaterHARYANA GOVT. GAZ., AUG. 4, 2020 (SRVN. 13, 1942 SAKA) [PART I-A 98 is the raw sewage which contain high density organic, suspended solids, oil and grease. It has high BOD, COD, suspended solids, oil and grease which pose serious harm to the environment and human health. This type of wastewater not only increases the load of wastewater treatment plants, but also affects the discharge capacity of urban drainage pipe, add to the pipe clearing cost, deteriorate the water quality, and threaten the environment and human health. Oils, fats and grease coat the inside of wastewater pipe. Solid food particles in wastewater stick to the oil and grease on the inside of the pipe which clogs the pipes in the facility.
The primary source of wastewater in a restaurant is washing of utensils, washing of hands by customers and occasionally washing of floors.
Washing and cleaning of a variety of items including cooking pots, serving pots, different varieties of utensils etc are done in Restaurants/ Dhabas/ Motels/ Hotels/ Marriage Gardens/ Banquet Halls. Therefore, the Restaurants/ Dhabas/ Motels/ Hotels/ Marriage Gardens/ Banquet Halls wastewater composition is greatly dependent on the variety of items washed. The wastewater generated is of interest from the standpoint of environmental impact in terms of both wastewater volume and contaminant loading. The major contaminants in the wastewater are suspended solids, oil and grease, leftovers, Biochemical Oxygen Demand and Chemical Oxygen Demand.
6. Effects of untreated waste water
The common wastes out of waste water that can affect the system are;
A. Fats, Oils and Grease (FOG):
The Fats, Oils and Grease are the substance which can cause serious issues to the efficiency of the sewer system and also is major cause of blockage after plastics, these blockage causes serious issues such as causing sewage spills, manhole overflows or sewage backup (backflow).
B. Solids:
Untreated waste makes water turbid and reduces light penetration and hence reduces the photosynthetic process of micro plants in the water body. They can also constrict sewer flows and contribute to bad odour.
C. BOD/COD:
The BOD/COD ratio is the conventional index. As a first approximation it could be said that higher this ratio, better the biodegradability. Lower this ratio, lower the biodegradability. However, this general expected behaviour has to be checked by pilot scale experimentation for industrial effluents characterized by a small BOD/COD ratio. The principal deleterious effect of this effluent on streams and water courses is their deoxygenating which poses as a threat to the aquatic life and our limited water resources. Typical values for the ratio of BOD/COD for untreated municipal wastewater are in the range from 0.3 to 0.8. If the BOD/COD ratio for untreated wastewater is 0.5 or greater, the waste is considered to be easily treatable by biological means. If the ratio is below about 0.3, either the waste may have some toxic components or acclimated micro-organisms may be required in its stabilization.
| Type of wastewater | BOD/COD | BOD/TOC |
| Untreated | 0.3 – 0.8 | 1.2 – 2.0 |
| After primary settling | 0.4 – 0.6 | 0.8 – 1.2 |
| Final effluent | 0.1 – 0.3 | 0.2 – 0.5 |
7. Treatment of Waste Water
The treatment unit should comply with all the rules, regulation and standards prescribed by the CPCB/SPCB, the Local Authority should monitor the treatment by these Restaurants/ Dhabas/ Motels/ Hotels/ Marriage Gardens/ Banquet Halls. These above-mentioned establishments will have to install the waste water treatment facility mandatorily irrespective of any quantity of generation of waste water.
I. All these Restaurants/ Dhabas/ Motels/ Hotels/ Marriage Gardens/ Banquet Halls should mandatorily be connected to either the sewer system leading to the ETP & STP or will have to install respective own modular ETP & STP and the treated waste water to be holded in storage tank and has to be transported and discharged in nearest ETP & STP. These activities will be done using a monitoring mechanism in place.
II. As per the existing/prevailing policy and rules all the Bulk Waste Generator for the Liquid Waste have to install individual ETP/STP to treat the waste water,
III. As per this policy all the Bulk Waste Generator (Restaurants/ Dhabas/ Motels/ Hotels/ Marriage Gardens/ Banquet Halls) in-spite of any quantum of waste, has to install ETP/STP. This ETP/STP canPART I-A] HARYANA GOVT. GAZ., AUG. 4, 2020 (SRVN. 13, 1942 SAKA) 99 be individual or shared facility (the treatment capacity of common ETP/STP should be combined capacity needed among the shared users/ Bulk Waste Generator).
IV. These modular ETP & STP can be installed as a common facility by a group of establishments or by an individual establishment. The waste water from kitchen should be pre-treated for removal of oil & grease. This can be done using a trap system, the outgoing streams of the O&G trap, Guest Room, Common Toilet, Floor washing including all other sources should connect to the ETP & STP.
V. Within 60 days of Notification of this Policy all the Bulk Waste Generators defined in this Policy shall treat the liquid waste by installing the modular STP/ETP.
• This ETP/STP can be a common facility, Two or more can share the same facility with mutual consent with their terms and conditions.
• Capacity of the above-mentioned ETP/STP will be total capacity needed for the sharing members (users/ Bulk Waste Generators).
VI. The Out flow of the waste water should be monitored by the Local Authority in collaboration with CPCB/SPCB and treatment should be enforced to level that 100% ( as per the "Policy on Reuse of Treated Waste Water) of treated waste water is under the prescribed limit of use as non-potable water. This non-potable water should be used in road medians, parks garden etc.
VII. The Registering Authority will have to provide dining and board Registration. The Registration will be done in consideration with the rules and regulation as amended time to time.
VIII. For the Withdrawal of Ground Water, all the Restaurants/ Dhaba/ Motel/ Hotels/ Marriage Gardens/ Banquet Halls have to provide the following details:
a. Availability of Tapped Water
b. Availability of any other resource
Ground Water Extraction will only be allowed if there is no availability of any other source of water (Tapped water). Penalties and Violation in this regard will be as per the Water Act, 1974, Groundwater regulation policy, guidelines being framed by Agriculture & Framers Welfare Department, Restaurants, Eating Houses ,Sweet Shops, Dhabas and Hotels [RESDH Sector]& Banquet Halls /Party Lawns are required to comply with the Effluent Standards , provide Effluent Treatment System and also comply with other requirements as mentioned in the Table given below:

8. Solid Waste Management
Solid waste can be further classified into:
1. Biodegradable (Wet) waste comprising of food, vegetable and non-vegetarian waste, this waste arises out of kitchen and prepared and left-over food.
2. Non-biodegradable (Dry) waste comprising of plastic bottles, papers, plastic wrappers, HDPE, LLDPE bags etc, this waste arises of packing materials, beverage containers etc.
According to SWM Rules 2016 and Swachh Bharat Mission guidelines the establishments/ generator has to segregate the waste, these guidelines also further state that Bulk Waste Generator have to treat their own waste.
Restaurants generate a tremendous amount of solid wastes including paper, cardboard, plastics, wood, food wastes, glass, metals, special wastes and hazardous wastes. Simple procedures such as assessing and monitoring the types and amounts of garbage thrown away each day can lead to significant savings for the restaurant, as well as the local bodies. The first step in reducing the amount of waste a restaurant produces is to conduct a waste audit, Every Restaurants/ Dhabas/ Motels/ Hotels/ Marriage Gardens/ Banquet Halls should submit their waste audit to the Local Authority, these waste audit should consist daily details of the following;
HARYANA GOVT. GAZ., AUG. 4, 2020 (SRVN. 13, 1942 SAKA) [PART I-A 102Table 1: Solid Waste Audit Table
| S.No. | Date | Wet Waste Produced | Dry Waste Produced | Total Waste Generated | Total wet waste feeded in to Composting unit | Total dry waste supplied to authorised recycler/ SWM Concessionaire/ ULB |
| 1 | ||||||
| 2 |
*All the generator have to install weigh scale at their premised for the waste audit, these weigh scale should be authorised by the legal and metrological department.
These waste audit will provide the physical attributes to waste production at these Restaurants/ Dhabas/ Motels/ Hotels/ Marriage Gardens/ Banquet Halls, these above-mentioned establishments involved food and beverage services operation throw a whopping amount of recyclable garbage which could be part of the circular economy of waste. Various by products can be derived out of these wastes such as Bio-gas, compost, recyclable plastics in present day scenario most of this garbage is either dumped hazardously at Un-authorised location or find their place at the local designated dumpsite/landfill.
In present day scenario 75% of material in today's landfill is recyclable or compostable, while 50-70% of the weight of a foodservice operation's garbage consists of compostable food items. Food packaging makes up most of the remaining weight of the garbage's bins, but account for around 70% of the volume of foodservice trash. (Consulting, 2013), A foodservice operation without recycling, composting or any waste reduction program can reduce their disposal cost by at least half by implementing simple, structured recycling practices and thus reduce the load on the local designated dumpsite/landfill.
9. Treatment of Solid Waste
The solid waste treatment should be taken up effectively,
I. A compact biogass plant for Restaurants/ Dhabas/ Motels/ Hotels/ Marriage Gardens/ Banquet Halls where ever the land is available along with the guidance from CPCB/SPCB based on the waste generation, the generation of waste can be assessed using the waste audit.
II. On Site-Composting unit for Restaurants/ Dhabas/ Motels/ Hotels/ Marriage Gardens/ Banquet Halls is mandatory in case of shortage of space mechanical composting unit should be in place (for more then 12 Seats) or similar affordable scientific system in case of Restaurants/ Dhabas/ Motels/ Hotels/ Marriage Gardens/ Banquet Halls having seating capacity 12 Seats or less.
III. Source reduction, reduction of wastage of food and reduction in packaging items. Plastic based packaging systems should not be used at any cost.
IV. Donation to food banks (in association of ULB and NGOs the extra food which has shelf life and for human consumption and is edible should be given as assistance to the people in need).
V. Collection for delivery to farms (feed animals), this should be allowed in case of smaller establishment only with 12 seats of less.
VI. Collection for solid waste Dry Waste for RDF and wet waste for Compost in case of active ISWM project in the vicinity, the collection will be done by the concessionaire along with the assistance from ULB, the user fee will be collected on the mutual agreement with Concessionaire and ULB.
10. Ground Water Management
The surface water shortage and shortage in supply of potable water in terms of Treated Tap Water or absence of such system has resulted in the exploitation of ground water. The Restaurants/ Dhabas/ Motels/ Hotels/ Marriage Gardens/ Banquet Halls Industry is one of the industries which is always in lime light for extensively using the ground waste resources. These industries are water intensive industry, washing of plates regular washing and cleaning of floor using water is also degrading the ground water level. Most of the Restaurants/ Dhabas/ Motels/ Hotels/ Marriage Gardens/ Banquet Halls also use ground water for maintaining the lawns and gardens, for this recycled water can be best option.
Haryana is on the verge of severe water crisis with ground waste depleting at a rapid rate and completely drying up in some areas leading to the alarming emergence of few dark zones according to the CGWB. Use of ground water is one of the major reason for depletion of ground water.
PART I-A] HARYANA GOVT. GAZ., AUG. 4, 2020 (SRVN. 13, 1942 SAKA) 103The Restaurants/ Dhabas/ Motels/ Hotels/ Marriage Gardens/ Banquet Halls will have to maintain the daily details of the water usage and submit the monthly report to the Local Authority/ Urban Local Body in below mentioned table.
| S.No. | Water Source: Treated Tap Water, Usage in KL (Kilo liter) | Water Source: Ground Water, Usage in KL (Kilo liter) | Water Source: Tanker Supply, Usage in KL (Kilo liter) | Ground water recharge facility available |
| 1 | ||||
| 2 |
The Restaurants/ Dhabas/ Motels/ Hotels/ Marriage Gardens/ Banquet Halls will have to provide the water demand to the Local Authority, also Restaurants/ Dhabas/ Motels/ Hotels/ Marriage Gardens/ Banquet Halls will have to declare the water source to the local authority. Demand and water usage should be monitored by the Restaurants/ Dhabas/ Motels/ Hotels/ Marriage Gardens/ Banquet Halls using authorised meters by the concerned Authority.
I. Restaurants/ Dhabas/ Motels/ Hotels/ Marriage Gardens/ Banquet Halls will have to take the necessary approvals and permission from Ground Water Authority before sinking of well no activity can be started before necessary approvals and permission from Ground Water Authority.
II. The restaurants/ Dhabas/ Motels/ Hotels/ Marriage Gardens/ Banquet Halls will have to install authorised water meter at the connection to monitor the extraction and have to report the same in above mentioned table.
III. In case if Treated Tap Water pipe line is available the Restaurants/ Dhabas/ Motels/ Hotels/ Marriage Gardens/ Banquet Halls cannot apply for sinking of well.
IV. In case if the Treated Tap Water pipe line is commissioned at later stage the Restaurants/ Dhabas/ Motels/ Hotels/ Marriage Gardens/ Banquet Halls will have to ensure the closure and filling of well.
11. Environmental Violation Charges:-
In case of following violations/defaults, the owners of Restaurants, Dhabas, Motels, Hotel, Marriage Gardens & Banquet Halls shall be proceeded against as per the provisions of Act & Rules:-
(a) Non registration of the Restaurants, Dhabas, Motels, Hotel, Marriage Gardens & Banquet Halls with concerned Municipality/regulating Authority.
