A senior OSPCB officer on Friday said, the penalty was imposed after it was established that the company was dumping fly ash in violation of norms.

"After the board's show cause notice in August, Vedanta had presented its case in the first hearing. The proceedings of the case will be submitted to the chief secretary, who is the chairman of OSPCB. Once it is approved by the chairman, the company will be asked to deposit the money."
