Blue Flag Certifi cation

Ministry of Environment and Forests launched a pilot project for beach cleanup and development, also striving for the “Blue Flag” Certification for such identified beaches

Objective - Enhancing standards of cleanliness, upkeep and basic amenities at beaches
Each of the coastal State/UT was requested to identify/nominate a beach, to be funded through the ongoing Integrated Coastal Management Programme.
Blue Flag
The Blue Flag is a certification by the Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE) that a beach, marina or sustainable boating tourism operator meets its stringent standards.
FEE's Blue Flag criteria include standards for water quality, safety, environmental education and information, the provision of services and general environmental management criteria.
The Blue Flag is sought for beaches, marinas and sustainable boating tourism operators as an indication of their high environmental and quality standards.
