Before starting a manufacturing concern, which will discharge air or water pollutants, you are required to take "consent" from the pollution control authorities. Refer to Air Act, and water act for relevant provisions of law.

You have to study Enivronmental Laws and the rules prescribed by the State governments in the respective states.
If you let me know which state, I will provide the links.
