The process of completion of lease agreement was completed between Divisional Forest Officer Satara & Sr. Divisional Engineer, Central Railway, Bombay. On 22/01/1985 for the period of 1978 to 1988. The Central Raiway has completed construction of 4 Suits for officers and 16 Suits for Group āCā and Group āDā staffs. The Central Railway authority has paid the lease amount to forest dept as per agreement. The Central railway has submitted the new proposal for diversion of forest land for regularisation of lease land in Sept. 2007, to the Dy. C.F. Satara. Dy. C. F. Satara & C.C.F. T Kolhapur has also recommended this proposal for approval, but this proposal has not obtain further approval under FCA 1980. Due to non compliance of shorfalls.Now the project Authority has decided land under building & other amenities should be applied for regularisation of lease under Forest Conservation Act, 1980. Project Authority has completed construction of holiday homes, but not completed procedure provisions under F.C.A 1980, for regularisation of lease before completion of lease period. The area is already diverted and there is least chance of further adverse effect on the ecology of area. The proposal is recommended for regularisation of lease on Forest land at Molcompeth, Tal.
