Monitoring and Evaluation

Monitoring & Evaluation of the Works:

Under the Compensatory Afforestation Fund Act, 2016, independent and concurrent third-party monitoring and evaluation of the works undertaken by the State CAMPA is an important requirement. In accordance with the roles and responsibilities of the technical officers defined in the Forest Manual, the officers from Range Forest Officer and above upto PCCF carry out regular pre and post plantation inspections to ensure technical quality of the works.

Corrective measures suggested during such inspections are communicated to the frontline staff through inspection notes and regular compliance of the measures suggested is ensured.

Such inspections are also carried out by the officers from the Integrated Regional Office (IRO) of MOEF and CC located at Chandigarh. The officers from the IRO ensure that the plantation and other works undertaken by the State Authority are executed following technical and financial parameters as defined in the relevant rules.
