BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY

Data Collection Survey on Water Resources Potential for Thilawa Special Economic Zone and Adjoining Areas

CHAPTER 1 BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY

1-1 Background of the Study

In the Republic of the Union of Myanmar (Myanmar), the political system led by military forces has continued for a long period. After General Thein Sein from the military assumed the post of Prime Minister in October, 2007, political reform began. Then, after H.E. U Thein Sein assumed the position of President in March, 2011, the approach forward toward a democratic system and market-oriented economic reform remarkably improved.

The corresponding change of the international community over the democratic political system and market-oriented economic reform in Myanmar has changed rapidly, with a typical example being the US government’s cancellation of the economic sanction in May, 2012 to forge ahead in the new market under consideration of the “Last frontiers in the Asian Region”.

Myanmar President Honorable H.E. U Thein Sein, who officially visited Japan and its Prime Minister, Mr. Yoshihiko Noda, signed the “Memorandum of Intent on the Cooperation for the Development of the Master Plan for the THILAWA” on 21 April, 2012 to make a master plan together for the THILAWA Special Economic Zone (Thilawa SEZ) which is located near Yangon City. The memorandum, promoting the direct investment of Japan in Myanmar, can contribute to high economic growth and provide job opportunities by developing industries in Myanmar and can contribute toward shared benefits between the two countries.

Thilawa SEZ is located 23 (twenty three) km southeast of Yangon City. The Master Plan consists of an industrial complex, commercial facilities, housing etc. in an area of 2,400 ha and can be called a “Smart Community Development”. The Japanese Government intends to make this a joint project with a large number of Japanese business groups having private capital and has pledged in the memorandum to support the project financially. Consequently, the development of Thilawa SEZ is expected to progress steadily as a future cornerstone for the two counties’ economic development.

Basic conditions required to effectively utilize the capital of the Japanese private sector include full preparation for electrical energy, roads, port facilities, storage facilities, and especially, a safe water supply system, including an intake facility, conveyance networks, and water supply networks, which are essential to providing a sustainable water supply system for Thilawa SEZ. It is essential to deal with the water resources development in a well-planned, under consideration for the harmony with environment and evaluation for the water quality and cost-performance. For the sustainable water supply to the Thilawa SEZ, in case of the utilization of the surface water, since existing reservoirs have already set the water right, amount of the available water resources are not secured. In the progress of the development of the Yangon urban area, the survey area also will be developed. The future water requirement can be assumed to increase.

Here are the means of the data collection survey on the water resources potential for the Thilawa Special Economic Zone and Adjoining Areas.

Data Collection Survey on Water Resources Potential f or Thilawa Special Economic Zone and Adjoining Areas

1-2 Objectives of the Study

The Data Collection Survey on the Water Resources Potential for the Thilawa Special Economic Zone and Adjoining Area intends to collect basic information on water resources necessary for making a future development plan of Thilawa SEZ and the surrounding areas.

Intended data are available surface water and groundwater. The water resources potential of those resources should be assumed by scientific approach and should be examined for the cost of developing the water resources to meet the required purpose individually.

The following are outcomes anticipated as a result of the Survey:

- Present and future potential of groundwater resources are assessed from a viewpoint of utilization through 3D groundwater numerical modeling;

- Present and future potential of surface water resources are assessed from a viewpoint of utilization after understanding abundance, quality and demand of surface waters;

- Based on the above two potentials of ground and surface water resources, concrete plans are made for costs, amount of exploitable water resources, water quality, etc.; and

- A database for water resources development, which shows exploitable amount, quality and developing costs, is created.

CHAPTER 2 BASIC DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS

2-1 Basic Data of Nature, Society, Economy and Environmental & Social Considerations

2-1-1 Target Area of the Study

Myanmar is composed of seven (7) regions and seven (7) states as an administrative classification. The Thilawa Special Economic Zone (Thilawa SEZ) is located in Yangon.

Yangon Region is composed of 45 townships. The study area is located in Thilawa SEZ and adjoining areas and is defined specifically as Thanlyin Township, , Thongwa Township and as the target area of the study for the existing shallow wells.

From the aspect of the study for the surface water resources, the target area of the study includes Bago Region (next to ) because the main candidate for surface water resources was assumed to be the Bago River.

2-1-2 Nature

Myanmar is located from the northern latitude of 10 degrees to the northern latitude of 28 degrees, stretching 900km east to west and 2,000km north to south and is situated in the climate zone of tropical monsoons.

The nation’s land has features from a coastal line to the highest mountain, Hkakabo Razi Mt (5,581m). It is changing from flat ground to undulating ground.The climate of the county has three (3) seasons, as follows:

Late October – May Dry Season April and May Summer Season June – Mid-October Monsoon Season

The characteristic feature of the monthly mean temperature is comparatively high in Yangon City; on the other hand, rainfall morphology shows the feature of the concentrated rainfall wave. Ninety-six percent (96%) of the annual rainfall in Yangon City falls in the rainy monsoon season. Figure 2-1-2 Target Area of the Study for the Surface Water

2-1-3 Society

The society of Myanmar consists of eight (8) numbers of the major tribes (Burma, Kachin, Kayah, Kayin, Chin, Mon, Rakhine), each name being used to name each of the states. The total number of states is 135. The population of the Burma tribe comprises about 70% of the total population of the 62.42 million in Myanmar. Myanmar is multiracial country.

90% of the population is Buddhist, and the strongest religious conflict is between Buddhists and Muslims. Furors resulting in deaths have occurred in the local areas sporadically.

To know the degree of social development from an international standpoint, the human development index published by the UNDP in 2011 shows a value of 0.483, which situates Myanmar as 149th out of 187 countries. At the same time, the value of the index for Japan was 0.901. The index was estimated according to the average life expectancy, literacy rate, school enrollment ratio and GDP and is also used to classify the countries into: advanced country; developing country; and least developed country. Myanmar is classified under the least developed country category.

On the other hand, from the aspect of the standard of education, the adult literacy rate of the citizens show more than 90% and the youth literacy rate shows more than 95%, which is the same level as Vietnam. As far as literacy rate then, Myanmar can be understood as a rich country. The traditional system of education in Myanmar which is done in and through temples, like TERAKOYA in Japan, is expanding widely.

Figure 2-1-5 Industrial Structure in GDP

Agriculture shares 27.8% among all industries in the GDP of Myanmar, which means that Agriculture is the main industry in the country. Here, the strong intention of the Government of Myanmar is shown with its request to the Government of Japan to introduce the competitive industrialized processing and manufacturing industries with a Private-Public Initiative for the Thilawa Special Economic Zone.

(3) International Competitiveness

According to the above-mentioned Statistical Year Book of 2011, the balance of trade in 2010-2011 was 8,861 million USD (Export), 6,413 million USD (Import) and 2,448 million USD (Balance in black figure).

By item of the export, Natural Gas and Precious Metals exceed Agriculture in amount of export. The garment industry, which is a light industry, shares only 4.3% of the total amount of export. Here, the Government of Myanmar promotes its strong intention to establish the Industrial Nation by the processing industry and the manufacturing industry mainly through the invitation of foreign investment to the Special Economic Zone.

2-1-5 Environmental and Social Consideration

(1) Historic steps and changes in Myanmar with Environmental and Social Considerations

The Environment Conservation Law was enacted in March 2012 in Myanmar. Before establishing the Law, there was no related law regarding the environmental protection. The laws, which were established by the ministries individually on the each fields, perform the roles of the environmental protection on the each fields. The National Commission for Environmental Affairs (NCEA) is defined as a lead ministry in the Government. The NCEA was established in 1990 as a Government

2-6 Data Collection Survey on Water Resources Potential for Thilawa Special Economic Zone and Adjoining Areas

office to manage the environmental education and environmental policy under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The National Environmental Policy was established by the NCEA in 1994 to make clear the direction for the environmental conservation. At later time, the Myanmar Agenda 21 was established in 1997. The NCEA was placed under the Ministry of Forestry, nowadays, was placed under the Ministry of Environmental Conservation and Forestry (MOECF). Now, MOECF is lead ministry for the environmental conservation.

2-2 Organization of the Administration and Legal Frame on the Water Utilization

2-2-1 Organization of the Administration on the Water Utilization

In Japan, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MOLTT) take charge of management of the Class A River, and the Regional Government take charge of management of the Class B River. The Water Utilization Administration is defined as below.

- The MOLTT has right to give a permission of the water right to the water users which is the public property.

- The MOLTT has responsibility to insure the effective utilization of the river water, and to smooth management of the water utilization by various users in the river basins.

- In terms of above-mentioned issues, for the integrated management of the rivers in low water level, the MOLTT shall set the required water discharge volume to keep the normal function of the river flow. The MOLTT shall carry our following activities.

・Forecasting the future water requirement ・Estimation of the available water resources volume for developing ・Permission of the Water Right

In Myanmar, the Ministry of Transport take charge of management the shipping traffic under the Department of Transport. It is a part of the function of the transportation system. In terms of the Water Resources, Department of Water Resources and Improvement of River System has responsibility for improvement of the river water way and improvement of the dike regarding the Ayeyarwady River, the Salween River, Sittang River and Chindwin River.

The National Plan of the water resources development for the irrigation water, industrial water and domestic water is approved by the National Water Resources Committee. The Department of the Water Resources and Improvement of the River System, Ministry of the Transport, is in charge of the management of the committee. It is not functioning actually in this situation by the result of the interview with the officials concerned in October 2013. The vice president is the chairman of the committee and the vice chairman is the minister of the Ministry of Transport. The Director General of the Department of the Water Resources and the Improvement of the River System is the secretary of the committee. The Water Policy is under discussing by the Committee and it will be established by 2015. Discussion schedule on the Water Right is not defined yet by the interview with high ranking officer of the Irrigation Department.

Accordingly, for making the real river development plan and irrigation development plan, the main ministry has responsibility to handle the project implementation by getting the budget of the Union Government through the making the consensus among the regional government related the project. Based on the above-mentioned definition by the Government of Japan, the leading ministry for the administration of the water utilization can be assumed to be the Irrigation Department, Ministry of Agriculture and Irrigation.

2-8 Data Collection Survey on Water Resources Potential for Thilawa Special Economic Zone and Adjoining Areas

2-2-2 Policy

The making activities for the draft of the Water Utilization Policy consist of the River Administration Policy by the Department of the Water Resources and Improvement of the River System and the Water Development and Water Utilization regarding the groundwater and surface water by the Irrigation Department. But present situation, there is no permanent committee among the both ministry. There was no friction among both ministries, because the ministry of the transport has concentrated on the main river as already mentioned. There is no five-year plan for the water utilization as a fundamental principle by both ministries at this moment. The data collection survey team has already requested to the ministries regarding the annual budgetary plan. Unfortunately, the information has not reached yet.

2-2-3 Legal Frame

It is clear that the Law of the Water Right in Myanmar has not established yet, by the interview with high ranking officer of the Irrigation Department.

The data collection survey team has an intension to collect information by the interview with the planning Sector in the Irrigation Department, Ministry of Agriculture and Irrigation.

An acceptance of the water resources development by the ministry level, the National Water Resources Committee has a right to conduct the acceptance. The Directorate of Water Resources and Improvement of River System was appointed as the main agency, but it is not functional. The National Water Resources committee is discussing the Water Policy for making the law by end of 2015. According to the interview from the high-ranked officer, the schedule for the discussion still was not determined.

The respective water right regarding the reservoirs, small reservoirs and groundwater development are not managed based on the real law. For the transitional periods, the ministry of the electric power or ministry of the agriculture and irrigation are managing under the cabinet meeting of the union government. After development of the water resources, the operation and maintenance will be transfered to the ministry level or regional government level. According to the interview with the Irrigation Department, from making the project master plan to the implementation the project of the surface water resource, the Irrigation department has responsibility. For the groundwater development, the Water Resource Utilization Department has responsibility on this matter.

2-3 Outline of Topography and Geology

2-3-1 Topography

(1) Topographic Units and Survey Area

Mountains cover Myanmar in the east and west as well as in the northern edge. Lowlands spread

2-9 Data Collection Survey on Water Resources Potential f or Thilawa Special Economic Zone and Adjoining Areas

in the central part. The Irrawaddy and the Sittang Rivers flow southward in the lowland into the Andaman Sea as shown in Figure 2-3-1. Between the two rivers, Pegu Yoma (Pegu Hill) runs from north to south to divide the lowland. The southern end of Pegu Yoma is the Yangon Ridge on which Yangon City is located, and also the Thanlyin-Kyauktan Ridge which stretches southeastwards over the Bago River as shown in Figure 2-3-2.

The Bago River originates in the south of Pegu Yoma. It flows first southeastwards to near Bago City, and turns to south keeping its flow in lowland to Yangon city.

The Bago River originates in the south of Pegu Yoma. It flows first southeastward to near Bago City, and then turns to the south, keeping its flow in the lowland to Yangon City.

The groundwater investigation of the present survey targets the area of the Thanlyin-Kyauktan Ridge and the lowland plain next to it to the east (called respectively as the “hill” and “plain” hereafter), which is surrounded by the Bago, Yangon and Hmawwun Rivers as shown in Figure 2-3-2 and Figure 2-3-3.

The surface water investigation targets the Bago river Basin in addition to this area.

(2) Ground Elevation and Gradient

The southern part of Bago Yoma is a low relief hill with a fine valley system whose elevation ranges mostly from 10 to 200 m and partly along the ridge from 400 to 600 m.

The Thanlyin-Kyauktan Ridge is also a low relief hill with 5 to 25 m in elevation stretching in NNW - NNE direction, where shallow valleys develop in the western part. The plain out of the ridge is very low and flat. The elevation is 0.7 to 3.5 m in the eastern plain and around 10 m in Bago City. Therefore the riverbed gradient is very small and the Bago River is still tidal even at Bago City which is located about 60 km upstream of Yangon. All creeks and canals in the investigation area are basically tidal. However the tidal effect is considerably reduced by the sluice gates which were constructed mainly at the exit of the creek by the Irrigation Department, MoAI.

Figure 2-3-4 shows the regional geology and Table 2-3-1 shows a stratigraphic table around the survey area.

Pegu Yoma consists mainly of the Pegu Group. The Irrawaddy Formation distributes along its periphery. The Pegu Group comprises weakly- to moderately-consolidated sedimentary rocks of Tertiary Oligocene to Miocene age. They are considered to be marine deposits. The upper part mainly consists of an alternation of sandstone and mudstone; the middle part, of sandstone; and the lower part, of shale. The Irrawaddy Formation is made up of continental deposits comprising weakly-consolidated medium- to coarse-grained sandstone and conglomerate intercalated with weakly- to moderately-consolidated muddy rocks. The lowland out of the ridge is covered with unconsolidated silt, clay and sand of Quaternary age. These sediments were conveyed by river flow, so that their formation is named ‘Alluvium’ here.

In Pegu Yoma, some anticlines are identified. In the Yangon Ridge and the Thanlyin-Kyauktan Ridge, an anticline is inferred. A famous active lateral fault called the Sagain Fault runs along the linear boundary between Pegu Yoma and the Sittang plain. The Bago Earthquake occurred in 1930 on the fault with an epicenter located to the north of Thongwa in the eastern edge of the investigation area. The linear fault scarp created by the earthquake is traceable even at present.

(2) Geology of Thanlyin-Kyauktan Ridge

Figure 2-3-5 shows the geological map and Table 2-3-2 shows stratigraphic table of Thanlyin-Kyauktan Ridge. Figure 2-3-5 was compiled based on geological maps by Win Naing et a l. (1991) and Aye Thanda Bo (2001), topographical analysis of a satellite image, and outcrop reconnaissance.

According to existing geological maps including regional ones, geologic units distributed in the area are the Irrawaddy Formation in the north and the Pegu Group in the south. They contact each other on an inferred fault running near Kyaik Kauk Pagoda in Thanlyin. Another fault is inferred along the eastern edge of the hill, because it shows a clear lineament. Considering the Bouguer abnomly map shown in Figure 2-3-6, it is probable for a fault to run along the western edge of the hill.

The Irrawaddy Formation consists of semi-consolidated medium- to coarse-grained sandstone with mudstone layers. The Pegu Group comprises an alternation of shale (or mudstone) and fine- to medium-grained sandstone with ferruginous bands. According to the core boring and test well drilling results by the present survey (later described in detail), sandstone of the Irrawaddy Formation distributes down to approximately 100m from the ground and mudstone prevails below this depth. In the southern area where the Pegu Group distributes, the ground is covered mainly with mudstone. However sandstone prevails in the core sample obtained at an eastern edge of the central part of the hill. The ferruginous bands were found in the core above 100m from the ground.

It is generally difficult to grasp the bedding condition in the hill, because outcrops are rarely distributed. However, dip and strike can be measured at some outcrops in a small valley, developed land and wall of dug well. An anticline axis is inferred along the ridge in the Irrawaddy Formation. In the central part of the Pegu-Group-covering area, it is inferred from the drilling result by the present survey that as a whole, layers dip gently to the east and, and near the eastern edge of the hill, they dip more. Along the riverside of the Hmawwun River, there is a continuous outcrop of the Pegu Group. The layers there dip with as much as 30 to 60 degrees to the east..

In the surface of the hill, the lateritic soil develops. Generally a few meters of the surface are reddish brown or brownish in color and contain spherical or sphere-connected ferruginous concretions in the middle and lower portions. In the test well site in Thanlyin where the Irrawaddy formation distributes, lateritic weathering is as remarkable as that the layer is brownish down to 25 m below ground and a thick tabular iron vein 5cm thick was found. In the Pegu-Group-covering area, lateritic weathering reaches about five meters. Such a surface layer of the hill was used as fill material for the embankment in SEZ and the nearby development area. This material is generally not permeable, because its mother rock is mainly mudstone and it contains much silt and clay as well as the concretions.

2-4 Socioeconomic Situation in the Project Area

2-4-1 Area and Population

(1) Area

The survey area is composed of 4 townships: Thanlyin, Kyautan, Thongwa and Kayan. The largest township is Kyautan (84,371.0 Ha), followed by Thongwa (83,547.0 Ha) (Table 2-4-1). The survey area belongs to the Yangon Southern district; the survey area covers 53.0% of the district (266,526.4 Ha of 503,091.5 Ha in total).

The largest land use category in the survey area is agricultural land. According to the SLRD data, the largest percentage of it is in Kyautan with 74.5% (62,882.9 Ha), followed by Kayan with 71.9% (44,063.0 Ha). Even in the lowest percentage township, Thanlyin, 66.4% (24,762.3ha) of all its area is agricultural land. 71.0% (357,336.9 Ha) of the total area is categorized as agricultural land in the Yangon Southern district. After agricultural areas, the second largest is water. 13.6% to 22.7% of the areas among the survey townships were covered by water and 18.1% (91,253.5 Ha) of the Yangon

2-16 Data Collection Survey on Water Resources Potential for Thilawa Special Economic Zone and Adjoining Areas

southern district is a water area.

Industrial area is larger around the Yangon city area townships. The townships where Thilawa SEZ planned site, Thanlyin and Kyautan are larger than other townships, the areas are 2,108.0 Ha (5.7%), 794.4 Ha (0.9%), respectively. Percentage of Building land of Thanlyin is the largest with 10.6% (3,936.0 Ha) of all survey townships. There are two bridges which connected to Yangon city area in Thanlyin, so workers can commute conveniently. It might be thought that there is a function of commute town for workers in Yangon City.

(2) Population

The age-distribution population for each survey townships are shown in Figure 2-4-1. Thanlin shows a large population among the younger generation (less than 15 years old), but the tendency was not shown in other townships. Based on the viewpoint of demographic transition, Thanlyin could be categorized as stage two (meaning high birth rate and low death rate), whereas others could be categorized as stage three (meaning low birth rate and low death rate). Demographic transition will change with modernization, and developing countries are categorized as first stage (meaning high birth rate and high death rate), usually. However, the survey townships were categorized by a higher stage, the same as a developed country. On the other hand, due to the low sanitation standard and lack of medical technology, the population segment over 70 years old was lower than others, relatively. According to that, it might be said that the area is a low birth rate and high death rate area. Primitive agricultural area societies usually have high birth rates for work power, but that tendency was not seen in the area.

Figure 2-4-1 Population Age Distribution in 2012 by Township

Table 2-4-2 summarized the number of households, the population (under 18 years old, over 18 years old), the number of members per household, and the population density. The largest population is in Thanlyin: 208,435 (under 18 years old: 53,903; over 18 years old: 154,532), followed by Thongwa: 162,884 (under 18 years old: 53,493; over 18 years old: 109,391). The number of members per household and the population density are also the largest in Thanlyin; the numbers are 4.6 and 558.9, respectively. Population density especially is more than double that of the other townships. As mentioned above, Thanlyin is located near Yangon City, and the township is a commuter town; therefore, its population density is significantly higher than that of the others. The other townships’ population density is lower than that of the Yangon southern district.

Population dynamics which are divided between those less than 18 years old and those over 18 years old from 2008 to 2012 are shown in Figure 2-4-2. Except for Kyautan, all of the townships’ under 18-year old populations declined during this period. Thanlyin’s briefly increased in 2007 but then decreased. On the other hand, the populations over 18-years old increased in all townships. The increase rate is especially higher in Thanlyin than in the others. The increase is not related to the under 18-year old population; it might be single person or non-child families migrating from outside. This township could be the commuter town for Yangon City, beginning from 2007.

2-4-2 Industry, Economy, Employment

(1) GDP

The economy in the four townships which cover the survey area is mainly composed of trading, industry, agriculture, and livestock & fishery. The following Figure 2-4-3 shows the GDP in the 2012/13 fiscal year for the four townships. The trading sector shares 26.9% of the total GDP for the four townships, showing the biggest share. The industry sector comes second with 26.1% of the GDP. The agriculture sector comes third with 23.4 %, followed by the livestock & fishery sector with 14.5%. The primary industry sector, agriculture and livestock & fishery, shares 37.9% of the GDP. Considering the results of the field survey and land use condition, the percentage of priority industry might be higher than the figure.

(2) Employed Workforce

The following table shows the employment situation in four townships of the survey area. The unemployment rate is the highest with 31.5% in Kyautan, followed by Thanlyin with 17.2%. The percentage of Thongwa (2.4%) and Kayan (5.0%) are lower than the percentage of the Yangon southern district (14.5%). As is well-known, temporary wage work is common in the Southeast Asian countries; the number of employed persons will change seasonally, such as in the farming season; however, the data did not mention the data collecting period. Therefore, it might be considered that the data reflecting the low unemployment rate areas were taken during the busy farming period while others were probably taken during the farming off-season.

2-20 Data Collection Survey on Water Resources Potential for Thilawa Special Economic Zone and Adjoining Areas

The table above shows the number of workers in the different industry sectors. Although the data source is the Yangon southern district general administration office, which provides official data, Thanlyin’s number is quite small and Khayan’s number is large, considering the over 18 years old population. The percentage of agricultural workers shares 0.8% to 34.9% of the total. According to the area of agricultural land use and the results of the field survey, the percentage is considered small. Landless farmers are involved in farmland activities as temporary workers, so temporary workers should usually be considered as agriculture workers.

In addition, the share of the primary industry sector is 59.8% (Agriculture: 34.9%; Livestock: 0.7%; Temporary workers: 24.2%), in Thanlyin, 73.9% (Agriculture: 20.4%; Livestock: 20.8%; Temporary workers: 32.7%), and in Kyautan, 50.4% (Agriculture: 21.8%; Livestock: 10.0%; Temporary workers: 18.6%) in the Yangon southern district. The percentage of the primary industry sector is relatively large compared to other sectors. However with the percentages of the primary industry sector in Kyautan being 37.0% (Agriculture: 12.0%; Livestock: 12.0%; Temporary workers: 13.0%) and Thongwa being 10.2% (Agriculture: 0.8%; Livestock: 0.7%; Temporary workers: 8.7%), as well as a large number of others (Kyautan: 34.3%; Thongwa: 39.5%), these figures might include a significant number of agricultural workers.

(3) Factories and the employees

Table 2-4-5 summarizes the number of factories and workers in the project area. The largest number of factories and workers is in Thanlyin with 47 factories and 6,327 workers (male: 2,536; female: 3,791), followed by Kyautan with 15 factories and 2,503 workers (male: 1,882; female: 621).

2-21 Data Collection Survey on Water Resources Potential f or Thilawa Special Economic Zone and Adjoining Areas

There are no factories in Thongwa and Kayan. Thanlyin is located on the left banks of the Bago and Yangon Rivers where there are ports. Therefore, several factories are located around those ports.

2-5 Present Situation of the Water Utilization of the Survey Areas

The subjects to be considered of the present situation of the water utilization of the survey areas are classified into following three items.

- Water for Agriculture - Water for Industry - Water for Domestic use

The developing level of the survey areas are still low, the irrigation system and water supplying system are almost not yet implemented. The other side, the survey areas are expected as the one of the future Greater Yangon City Area.

2-5-1 Present Situation of the Agriculture in the Target Area

Agriculture shares the first priority in the structure of the GDP of 27.8% in Myanmar, and even as it is going toward a manufacturing industry nation in the future, agriculture is the main industry at this moment. Since the natural resources of the Earth and the Water are essential components for agriculture, agricultural field is the biggest user for the water resource.

Fundamental information for the grasp of the agricultural field is summarized below. The data for the agricultural fields of the Thanlyin Township, the Kyauktan Township, the Thongwa Township and the Kayan Township which are target areas of the survey have not yet been collected by the formal administrative organ. The survey team collected the related data from the respective townships by conducting interviews. The data are summarized below.

(2) Present Water Demand for Irrigation

To grasp the water demand for irrigation, the water supply for the monsoon paddy isn’t needed because of the rainwater falling throughout the season; however, the water supply for the summer paddy needs irrigation water throughout the season. The real water demand volume on the survey area has not been grasped by the Irrigation Department, which has the responsibility for this issue country-wide. Therefore, the following estimation formula will be applied, which is used for the making a preliminary plan for the water resource development study in the Irrigation Department.

1) Pre-condition for the sown area of the summer paddy

The summer paddy can be cultivated by sustainable irrigation water throughout the season. The sown area of summer paddy is appropriated as 744 (ha) in the four townships.

2) Estimation formula for the irrigation water demand volume

The Irrigation Department is applying the following formula to grasp the irrigation water demand.

2-23 Data Collection Survey on Water Resources Potential f or Thilawa Special Economic Zone and Adjoining Areas

Water Demand Volume (acre-feet/year) = 6 (acre-feet/acre)×Irrigated area (acre)

For making the water resource development plan for the irrigation project, in the Irrigation Department, the required annual irrigation water volume shall be estimated based on the unit consumptive use water depth of six (6) feet.

The converted formula from acre-feet to ha-m3 is shown below.

Water Demand Volume (m3/year) =18,295 (m3/ha)×Irrigated area (ha)

3) Irrigation Water demand volume

The irrigation water demand volume can be estimated below.

Thanlyin Kyauktan Thongwa Kayan Total

Cultivated area (ha) 24,762 62,883 58,805 44,063 190,513 Summer Paddy (ha) 641 21 0 81 744

Water demand volume 11.7 0.4 0 1.5 13.6 (106 m3)

The water demand volume is considerably small because of a sowing area for the summer paddy of 744 (ha). This means that future water demand, because of an increasing of the sowing area of the summer paddy, will be increased by an incentive for farmers through the implementation of the irrigation project.

2-5-2 Present Situation of the Industry in the Target Area

Industry consists of the manufacturing and processing and shares 19.8% of the structure of the GDP in Myanmar. It is the third priority following Agriculture and Trade.

Fundamental information is provided for the Industry sector of the Thanlyin Township, the Kyauktan Township, the Thongwa Township and the Kayan Township, the target areas of the survey. The data are summarized below.

2-5-3 Present Situation and Future image of the Domestic Use in the Target Area

There are 12,400 shallow wells which are used for living purposes. At first, people store the rainwater during the monsoon season, and then the groundwater will be used to cover any volume shortage of the domestic use water. Even the public water supply system can be used, which peoples will use for limited purposes and in limited volume amounts.

There are some number of the small ponds for the domestic use water and agricultural water in the part of the agricultural activities. There are some families to use the rain water by using the roof and gutters with the roof. These water resources are used for the subsidized water in the rainy season.

The public water supply system is used in the Thanlyin Township and Kyauktan Township under management of the regional development committee, the penetration rate is still few percent. There is a plan to provide the water from the Yangon City Development Committee (YCDC) in these areas in future, but it should prepare the bridge or crossing facilities to cross the Bago River. To realize this plan, it takes much cost. It should pass the barriers to reach the implementation. The salt intrusion in to the river discharge around these area are confirmed, it is difficult to obtain the safety and sustainable water though the Bago River. The population density is still low except a part of the areas, due to the low effect of the cost/benefit ration, regional development is still low.

2-6 Agriculture in the Project Area

2-6-1 Agricultural Land Use

Table 2-6-1 shows agricultural land use in the project area and in the Yangon southern district. More than 96% of all agricultural land is lowland in the project area. Thanlyin has a slightly larger percentage of gardens compared with the others; it is located near Yangon city in a relatively hilly portion. Compared to the Yangon southern district, the project area could be characterized as a dominant are of paddy cultivation.

2-6-2 Planted Area, Production and These Trend in Recent Years

(1) Planted Area and Production

The monsoon paddy takes the largest harvested area with the second being green gram in the project area in 2012/13, and the order is the same as in the Yangon southern district. Though the harvested area of the Yangon southern district is 25,107.9 Ha, the total harvested area of the project area is only 743.3 Ha (Thanlyin: 642.2 Ha; Kyautan: 20.6 Ha; Kayan: 80.5 Ha).Due to the lack of irrigation facilities, the summer paddy area is smaller than that of other townships in the Yangon southern district.

The trends of crop production by each crop from 2008 to 2013 are shown in Figure 2-6-1. During this time, the production of the monsoon paddy and green gram were approximately constant in all townships, but the summer paddy production decreased in Thanlyin. The sunflower production also decreased, becoming quite small in 2011/12. Production of groundnut, which was widely produced in Thongwa and Kayan, decreased in 2010/11 to approximately a quarter of what was produced in 2009/10 and 2012/13.

2-26 Data Collection Survey on Water Resources Potential for Thilawa Special Economic Zone and Adjoining Areas

According to the result of an interview with DOA officers, farmers could not select planting crops freely even if the farmer had a right of land to use before 2010. It is considered that low profit crops such as summer paddy, sunflower and groundnut were not very attractive for farmers; a profitable crop, green gram, was produced stably though. However, the production of green gram did not increase from 2010; in other words, low profit crop production was not changed to profitable crops. It is considered that the place where sunflower and groundnut were planted has lower water potential; therefore, the place was not suitable for green gram cultivation. It also might be considered that even if the farmer has land, temporary work is more attractive than unstable and low profit crop production. Therefore, the number of temporary workers is high in the project area.

(2) Planted Area and Production under Irrigation

Irrigated areas in the four survey townships and the Yangon southern district in 2011/12 are shown in Table 2-6-3. The percentages of irrigated areas in Thanlyin, Kyautan, Thongwa and Khayan were 15.6% (3,851.0Ha in 24,762.3Ha); 3.2% (2,023.4Ha in 62,882.9Ha); 23.8% (14,016.3Ha in 58,804.5Ha); and 34.1% (48,912.0Ha in 357,336.9Ha), respectively. The percentages were higher than the percentage in the Yangon southern district (13.7%), except Kyautan.

The summer paddy area in the four townships was 857.5Ha; it takes up no more than 6% of the Yangon southern district (14,310.9Ha). The variation of the summer paddy harvested area from 2008/09 to 2012/13 is shown in Figure 2-6-2. It was changed about 300Ha in Thanlyin from 2008 to 2012, but it did not clearly show large changes among other townships. Therefore, the small number of summer paddy planted areas was not related with the policy change after 2010, which allowed the farmers to decide on the crops they wanted to grow in their own fields. The summer paddy which required much irrigation water was not a major crop grown in the project area.

The total irrigated area in the four townships is relatively larger in the Yangon southern district; however the amount of distributable water is small. Hence, most of the irrigable area planted pulses which required small amount of water rather than summer paddy. Actually, triple crop farming is possible in a year in the area. It is considered that if abundant irrigation water is provided by an irrigation facility in the project area, it makes it possible to increase and stabilize crop production.

The irrigated area was increasing in Thanlyin, Thongwa and Kayan from 2008 to 2012 (Figure 2-6-3). The increase might have been caused by the 30-mile greening project which the irrigation department (ID) pushes forward continuously. That project is not completed yet due to the increase of the canal length or its connection to the existing canal; the water in the canal can be used for the winter crop supplementary.

2-6-3 Agricultural Tools and Machineries

The number of owned agricultural materials and machines by townships are shown in Table 2-6-4. It is an error that the number of hand tractor in Thanlyin is 0, obviously. In whole, the numbers of traditional tools, harrows (40,471), ploughs (53,331) and bull carts (24,240) are larger than those of tractors (1,316) and hand tractors (4,722). This suggests that the way of agricultural operation is still traditional in the area; therefore, agricultural mechanization is expected which might contribute to agricultural labor-saving and labor provision for the industrial sector in Yangon City.

2-7 Water Right and Organization of the Water Utilization

2-7-1 Water Right

There is no Law of the Water Right in Myanmar therefore, there is no definition of the Water Right not only for the surface water resource but also the groundwater. Since there is no Law of the water resource development, the decision making and responsibility of the project plan and implementation of the project belong to the ministry individually. The procedure for giving the permission regarding the water utilization facilities, which are the bridge, dredging, river improvement, embankment of the dike and construction of the weir, are not defined by the Law. The construction of those facilities are implemented by the regional government with the budget given by the Union Government, the implementation agencies asking the cabinet for the budget allocation of the each implementation plan individually. Substantially, the Implementation Ministry has responsibility for the projects, the water right also belonging to the Ministry individually.

The groundwater development consist of the shallow wells for personal use, public water supply system and irrigation water resource development in the Central Dry Zone. Even these development

2-31 Data Collection Survey on Water Resources Potential f or Thilawa Special Economic Zone and Adjoining Areas plan is not controlled by the any kinds of the law. The developer has to entry the basic data on the ledger at the township office without regard to the capacity of the developed groundwater resource. It has no water right administratively.

2-7-2 Water Users Association

There is no institution for the collection of the water utilization fee due to the fact that the Water Users Association has not been organized under the management by the ministry of agriculture and irrigation which is largest organization for the water resource in Myanmar. There is the rationale on the present situation of the maintenance systems for the main canals and the secondary canals by the Irrigation Department.

But the maintenance fee for the tertiary canals and the terminal level canals are not collected from the beneficiaries anymore; therefore, the maintenance fee is lacking from the annual budget and all facilities have become superannuated.

In a similar way, the City Development Committee (CDC) has a responsibility to manage the domestic water supply system instead of the Water Users Association. It mean that the domestic water supply system is not managed by the self-support accounting.

CHAPTER 3

SURVEY AND ANALYSIS OF GROUNDWATER

Data Collection Survey on Water Resources Potential for Thilawa Special Economic Zone and Adjoining Areas

CHAPTER 3 Survey and Analysis of Groundwater

3-1. Outline

3-1-1 Purpose

A survey and analysis of groundwater was carried out to estimate the groundwater development potential in the area shown in Figure 3-1-1-1 for the Thilawa SEZ and the adjoining area.

Source: JICA Survey Team Figure 3-1-1-1 Groundwater Survey Area and Topography

3-1-2 Definition of Groundwater Development Potential

Here the “groundwater development potential” means a groundwater amount which can be sustainably supplied for the Thilawa SEZ and the adjacent area without socially unallowable environmental impact. Generally, to estimate the groundwater development potential, first the following four items are assessed, and then, comprehensively considering the results, the amount is fixed:

(1) Water Budget

A development amount must be lower than the groundwater recharge in a target area. If there is existing groundwater use, the amount of the present usage must be withheld from the amount. In addition, it must be considered that it is impossible to take all excess water in a water budget, because

3-1 Data Collection Survey on Water Resources Potential f or Thilawa Special Economic Zone and Adjoining Areas

some parts of groundwater would flow out of the area. Therefore, a part of the groundwater recharge could be developed.

(2) Water Quality

The water quality of the developed water must fit the purpose of usage, or the treatment cost of the water to be used must be economical enough to be acceptable.

(3) Hydraulic Ability

The hydraulic ability of the aquifer must be high so as to allow collecting water into intake facilities effectively and economically.

(4) Environmental Impact

The environmental impact of the water development must be as small as the negative impact to make it negligible, or the negative impact must be reduced with a mitigation measure so as to be acceptable. Ordinarily, small groundwater development is planned only with well capacity and water quality. But the well capacity shows only the hydraulic ability of the aquifer. For a larger scale development, the water budget and environmental impact must be considered as well. For the development in an area where groundwater is already being used, its environmental impact on the existing usage often limits the potential.

3-1-3 Topography

As shown in Figure 3-1-3-1, the target area consists of a low-relief hill and a flat plain surrounded by the Bago, Yangon and Hmaw Wun Rivers, and Tan Bin Creek. The total area is about 930 km2. The hill occupies the western side of the area with the towns of Thanlyin and Khauktan on it. The ground elevation ranges from about 5 m to 25 m. The Thilawa SEZ is located on the western flank. The hill is sometimes called the “Thanlyin-Kyauktan Ridge” The plain covers most of the area extending to the east. The ground elevation ranges mainly from 1m to 4m. There are many creeks and canals connected to each other. Because sluice gates are installed at the exit of the main creeks along the Bago River, and a main water divide of the plain runs along the road which connects Thanlyin and Thongwa, the northern part of the plain is protected against saline water intrusion into creeks in the dry season, though it is not perfect. In the southern part, the creeks remain tidal and salty water is moving through them. In the northern part of the survey area, the old river channels of the Bago River are easily traceable on the satellite image as shown in Figure 3-1-1-1. Along the eastern side of the survey area, the Sagain Fault, a famous active fault, runs.

3-1-4 Geology

Figure 3-1-4-2 shows the geological map and Table 3-1-4-1 shows the stratigraphic table of the Thanlyin-Kyauktan Ridge. The map was compiled based on geological maps by Win Naing et al. (1991) and Aye Thanda Bo (2001), topographical analysis of a satellite image, and outcrop reconnaissance. According to existing geological maps including regional ones, geologic units distributed in the area are the Irrawaddy Formation in the north and the Pegu Group in the south. They contact each other on an inferred fault running near Kyaik Kauk Pagoda in Thanlyin. Another fault is inferred along the eastern edge of the hill, because it shows a clear lineament. Considering the Bouguer anomaly map shown in Figure 3-1-4-1, it is probable for a fault to run along the western edge of the hill. The Irrawaddy Formation consists of semi-consolidated medium- to coarse-grained sandstone with mudstone layers. The Pegu Group comprises an alternation of shale (or mudstone) and fine- to medium-grained sandstone with ferruginous bands. According to the core boring and test well drilling results by the present survey (later described in detail), sandstone of the Irrawaddy Formation distributes down to approximately 100 m from the ground and mudstone prevails below this depth. In the southern area where the Pegu Group distributes, the ground is covered mainly with mudstone. However sandstone prevails in the core sample obtained at an eastern edge of the central part of the hill. The ferruginous bands were found in the core above 100 m from the ground. It is generally difficult to grasp the bedding condition in the hill, because outcrops are rarely distributed. However, dip and strike can be measured at some outcrops in a small valley, developed land and wall of

3-3 Data Collection Survey on Water Resources Potential f or Thilawa Special Economic Zone and Adjoining Areas dug well. An anticline axis is inferred along the ridge in the Irrawaddy Formation. In the central part of the Pegu-Group-covering area, it is inferred from the drilling result by the present survey that as a whole, layers dip gently to the east and, and near the eastern edge of the hill, they dip more. Along the riverside of the Hmaw Wun River, there is a continuous outcrop of the Pegu Group. The layers there dip with as much as 30 to 60 degrees to the east. In the surface of the hill, the lateritic soil develops. Generally a few meters of the surface are reddish brown or brownish in color and contain spherical or sphere-connected ferruginous concretions in the middle and lower portions. In the test well site in Thanlyin where the Irrawaddy formation distributes, lateritic weathering is as remarkable as that the layer is brownish down to 25 m below ground and a thick tabular iron vein 5 cm thick was found. In the Pegu-Group-covering area, lateritic weathering reaches about five meters. Such a surface layer of the hill was used as fill material for the embankment in SEZ and the nearby development area. This material is generally not permeable, because its mother rock is mainly mudstone and it contains much silt and clay as well as the concretions. The plain is underlain by unconsolidated Quaternary alluvial deposits. The thickness is 50m ~ 70m. It consists mainly of fine alternation of very fine sand, silt and clay (clayey deposits), and a basal sand layer with granules lies on the bottom. Less consolidated Tertiary deposits underlie the layer unconformably.

Each township administration has a well inventory, which provides an outline of groundwater use in the township, including the number of wells and the condition of the public water supply. This inventory became a base for a detailed exhaustive well survey carried out by the present survey. Only these are the obtainable comprehensive reports and data. Since there are many wells in the area, well-construction contractors might have information on well log and aquifer location. But it is difficult to collect such information in fact, because they are private and rarely leave documents.

3-2-2-2 Geologic and Well Logs

Table 3-2-2-2 shows a list of all geologic and well logs collected from the above-mentioned reports and obtained through the JICA survey including the present one. Figure 3-2-2-2 to Figure 3-2-2-4 show their locations. All the logs are attached in the ”Supporting Data”. Figure 3-2-2-1 shows an example.

3-2-2-3 Aquifer Depth and Hydraulic Ability

(1) Aquifer Depth

Aye Thanda Bo (2001) summarizes the aquifer features in the Thanlyin area as Table 3-2-2-4. According to this, there are two aquifers, upper and lower. The upper aquifer is located around 30 to 40 m underground and the lower one is 60 to 70 m and 80 to 100 m underground. Win Naing et al. (1991) presented deep well data as shown in Table 3-2-2-5. Figure 3-2-2-5 and Figure 3-2-2-6 show value distribution of the data. In the table, the wells in Thanlyin are presumed to be located in the Irrawaddy Formation and those in Kyauktan are in the Pegu Group. The screen depth of the wells in Thanlyin mostly corresponds to the aquifer depth of the lower one. The wells in Kyauktan have similar screen depth to those in Thanlyin, though the formation is different. According to the result of the well inventory survey explained later, the frequency of well depth shows a large peak at an interval between 30 and 40 m, as well as a small peak between 90 and 100 m. These peaks fit with the above-mentioned two aquifers’ depths. However, the aquifer depth may vary, as there are a considerable number of wells whose depths are between and beyond the two peaks.

(2) Hydraulic Ability

Based on Table 3-2-2-4 and Table 3-2-2-5, the capacity and specific capacity of the wells is summarized in Table 3-2-2-3. The yield of a well is presumed to be a few hundred m3/day maximum.

3-2-2-4 Water Quality

Win Naing et al. (1991) carried out water quality analysis of wells located in the Thanlyin-Kyauktan ridge and nearby area. Table 3-2-2-6 and Figure 3-2-2-7to Figure 3-2-2-9 show its results. In groundwater in the area, chloride and sodium ions occupy a large proportion among the main anions (Figure 3-2-2-7). Therefore, chloride ion concentration and electric conductivity (EC) have a good relationship, and it is presumed that approx. 750 μS/cm of EC correspond to 200 mg/l of chloride concentration beyond which people possibly feel water is salty (Figure 3-2-2-9). A large content of the two ions may be derived from sea salts. Saline water intrusion is reported in Alluvium near the river at the northeastern and western edges of Thanlyin hill. It is generally said that if iron concentration exceeds 0.3 mg/l, water gets color, and beyond 0.5 ㎎/l~ 1.0 mg/l, people feel a metallic taste. Groundwater in the area often has an iron concentration exceeding such guideline values (Figure 3-2-2-8). The pH ranges widely from 5.2 to 8.7 (Table 3-2-2-6). Data in the eastern plain is rare. According to what has been heard, the aquifer is salinized down to 100 m below the ground near Thongwa town.

3-2-3 Well Inventory Survey

3-2-3-1 Outline

The well inventory survey, that is, a well survey (including ponds) based on existing inventories, was carried out over a period of four months from Oct. 2012 to Jan. 2013. The work was entrusted to the National Engineering and Planning Services Co., Limited (NEPS). The survey purposed to infer the ability of an aquifer around Thilawa's Special Economic Zone (SEZ) and the adjacent area through grasping the present groundwater use in the areas, as well as to obtain basic information for estimating groundwater development potential around SEZ in future. The outline of the survey is as follows.

3-20 Data Collection Survey on Water Resources Potential for Thilawa Special Economic Zone and Adjoining Areas

(1) Target Area

The target area consists of 92 village groups in 4 townships: Thanlyin, Kyauktan, Kayan and Thongwa. Figure 3-2-3-1 shows the location of the village groups.

Thanlywin Township (29 village groups) Kyauktan Township (25 village groups) Kayan Township (17 village groups) Thongwa Township (21 village groups9

(2) Procedure and Time of Survey

The survey first picked up fundamental information of wells from existing inventories and input it onto a questionnaire shown in Table 3-2-3-1. Then the field survey was carried out on all the wells to obtain data lacking on the questionnaire. It was completed at the end of December 2012, so the information collected represents that as of the end of 2012. Finally, the information was input into a database.

(3) Field Survey and Number of Facilities

The field survey was carried out by teams from the first week of October, after the rainy season had just ended, and continued until the end of December. The registration information of facilities was collected from existing inventories in each township, and then the surveyors visited all the facilities and conducted hearings with the owners, making necessary measurements. Among the registered 15,252 facilities, approx. 4% could not be found due to maybe having been abandoned or collapsed, but 14, 691 facilities were identified and confirmed as still being used. Table 3-2-3-2 shows the number of facilities by township, and Figure 3-2-3-2 shows their location. Many wells, as many as 90%, distribute in Thanlyin and Kyauktan where many houses are constructed whereas approx. only 6% distribute in Kayan and Thongwa where paddy fields dominate. Such distribution of wells meets almost all the needs of the population of the villages.

(4) Type and Use of Facilities

Dug wells, tube wells and ponds are found as water source facilities. Dug and tube wells are used for domestic and water supply, whereas ponds are multi-purpose, such as for fishery, domestic and water supply as well as being used partly for agriculture. Figure 3-2-3-3 shows examples of the facilities. At the public facilities, a submergible or air lift pump is used. Pumped water is often delivered through a pipe system. At domestic wells, a bucket, hand pump, or airlift pump is used. At ponds, water is used often by gravity flow in the wet season but mainly by

3-24 Data Collection Survey on Water Resources Potential for Thilawa Special Economic Zone and Adjoining Areas

pumping in the late dry season because of the much-decreased water level.

(5) Well Selection for Areal Observation Well and Pumping Test Well

1) Areal Observation (Monitoring) Well Among about 12,000 wells in the investigation area, each 100 of the shallow and deep wells were selected for areal monitoring on groundwater quality. Here it is defined that a “shallow well” is one shallower than approx. 30 m, and a “deep well” is one deeper than approx. 30 m. The condition of selection is: Selected wells should distribute uniformly in the whole investigation area Water can be sampled and, if possible, the water level can be measured as well.

All wells were classified as either shallow or deep wells, and the candidates were selected in each village group. The results are shown in Figure 3-2-3-4 (right).

2) Pumping Test Well Pumping tests at existing wells were planned in order to widely grasp hydraulic parameters of aquifers in the investigation area. Twenty (20) candidate wells for the test were selected as shown in Figure 3-2-3-4 (left) from among the above-mentioned monitoring wells, considering a selection condition that pumping for the test would be allowed by the owner. The selected wells are concentrated in the urbanized area of the Thanlyin and Kyauktan townships. This spatial imbalance is not avoidable because a tube well is generally closed, making it difficult to measure the water level, and a dug well distributes in a limited area. After confirmation of the sites and facility conditions by visiting them, three wells were finally selected, and the tests were carried out (see “2-13 Pumping Test at Existing Wells”).

3-2-3-2 Detailed Survey Results

(1) Distribution of Water Source Facilities and Water Use Amount by Township

1) Well Wells in the investigation area are classified into two kinds: “Tube Well” and “Dug Well”. The tube well is drilled by a boring machine, and screen and casing with small diameter are installed. The dug well is excavated manually with digging tools and cased with nothing or lithic material like brick and stone. Figure 3-2-3-5 and Table 3-2-3-3 show number and estimated discharge of these wells by

3-26 Data Collection Survey on Water Resources Potential for Thilawa Special Economic Zone and Adjoining Areas

township. Figure 3-2-3-7 and Figure 3-2-3-8 show spatial distribution of the wells. There are 8,028 tube wells, among which, 90% are in Thanlyin, 8 % in Kyauktan and 1% in Thongwa and Kayan. There are 4,381 dug wells, among which, 75% are in Thanlyin and 25% in Kyauktan. No working dug well is present in Thongwa or Kayan. As understood with the distribution maps, most wells are located at the Thanlyin-Kyauktan Ridge and its nearby area, and in the eastern plain, only tube wells are scattered. The discharge was estimated as follows: the first, daily discharge of a well was calculated as the well capacity multiplied by the daily pumping hours. The daily discharge was summed up for all data-known wells. In the end, the sum was corrected with the ratio of data-known wells to all wells. The estimated total discharge in the area is approx. 17,000 m3/day, in which, Thanlyin gives 81% (approx. 13,500 m3/day) and Kyauktan, 15% (approx. 2,500 m3/day). Thongwa and Kayan discharge only 1% (215 m3/day) and 3% (586 m3/day) respectively. Most discharge of groundwater is made at the Thanlyin-Kyauktan Ridge and its nearby area. In the eastern plain, the discharge is estimated to be approx. 1,800 m3/day (11%).

2) Pond As shown in Figure 3-2-3-6 and Table 3-2-3-4, there are 2,280 ponds in the investigation area, and most of them are located in the plain as shown in Figure 3-2-3-9. The total capacity is 13.5 MCM. Kayan has a larger capacity of ponds. Kyauktan has a large number of ponds, but this is due to including small ponds which were not targeted in the other Townships.

(2) Attributes of Tube Well

1) Installation Year As shown in Figure 3-2-3-10, the tube wells increased their number after 1995. 1,501 wells were installed during 2011 and 2012 mostly in the Thanlyin Township. They must be increasing even now.

2) Depth Figure 3-2-3-11 and Figure 3-2-3-16 to Figure 3-2-3-19 show the value and spatial distribution of depth of the tube wells. The depth differs much between Thanlyin and Kyauktan which have hills and in Thongwa and Kayan which are located in the plain. In the former townships, the depth value has a peak frequency at 30~40 m intervals and distributes continuously to a hundred and a few tens of meters decreasing in number. On the contrary, in the latter townships, the depth value distributes less than 20m and greater than 100~110 m, but does not distribute between these ranges. This implies that there is no available aquifer between 20 m and 110 m underground in the plain. It is notable that one smaller frequency peak is found at around 100 m in Thanlyin and Kyauktan.

3) Diameter As shown in Figure 3-2-3-12, the diameter of the tube well is mostly 2” (0.05 m). A well with over 4” (0.10 m) diameter distributes only in Thanlyin.

4) Daily Pumping Hours As shown in Figure 3-2-3-13, the daily pumping hours of the tube well are mostly less than one hour and rarely exceed three hours. In Kayan, a well is used longer. This may be because it is used mainly for public water supply, and its capacity is relatively small compared with the requirement.

5) Capacity As shown in Figure 3-2-3-14, the capacity of the tube well has peaks of frequency around intervals of 20~40 l/min, 60~70 l/min and 200~300 l/min. In Kayan, it ranges completely in and below 20~30 l/min. In other townships, there are also found larger capacity values such as 200~400 l/min.

6) Daily Discharge As shown in Figure 3-2-3-15, the daily discharge of the tube well has a large frequency less than one (1) m3 and is mostly less than a few m3/day. The average is 1.5 m3/day in Thanlyin, 2.1 m3/day in Kyauktan, 3.7 m3/day in Thongwa and 8.4 m3/day in Kayan. A reason why the value is larger in Thongwa and Kayan may be because the water is mainly used for public supply.

(3) Attributes of Dug Well

1) Construction Year As shown in Figure 3-2-3-20, the dug wells also much increased their number after 1995 and they must be increasing even now.

2) Depth Figure 3-2-3-21, Figure 3-2-3-27 and Figure 3-2-3-28 show value and spatial distribution of depth of dug wells. They distribute only in the Thanlyin-Kyauktan Ridge and its nearby area. Their depth is mostly less than 10 m. Some wells with depths greater than 15m are found in the hill.

3) Diameter As shown in Figure 3-2-3-22, the diameter of the dug well is mostly 0.75 to 2 m.

4) Daily Pumping Hours As shown in Figure 3-2-3-23, the daily pumping hours are mostly less one (1) hour. 50% of the wells have no data. They may use a bucket to take water.

5) Capacity As shown in Figure 3-2-3-24, the pump capacity of the dug well is mainly 10 to 30 l/min.

6) Daily Discharge As shown in Figure 3-2-3-25, the daily discharge of the dug well mainly distributes in less than one (1) m3/day and mostly falls in less than a few m3/day. A well without the data provably discharges less than one (1) m3/day, because water is taken with a bucket.

7) Groundwater Table Depth A well could be dug down to a few meters below the groundwater table. As shown in Figure 3-2-3-26, the water table depth in the dug well falls mostly within 8 m.

(4) Pond

1) Construction Year As shown in Figure 3-2-3-29, the pond was constructed years ago, and it is understood that the pond was a main water source facility in the region. In Kayan, many ponds were added in the 1980’s and 1990’s.

2) Length and Width A pond has a rectangular or square configuration in the plan. As shown in Figure 3-2-3-30 and Figure 3-2-3-31, the length and width of the pond ranges mostly from 20 to 80 m. In Kyauktan, ponds smaller than 20 m long/wide dominate. However, in the other three townships, such small-scaled ones are probably not included in the inventory as shown in Figure 3-2-3-35. In Kayan and Thongwa, large-scaled ponds greater than 100 m are found. Such large ones are rarely found in Kyauktan.

3) Depth As shown in Figure 3-2-3-32, the depth of the pond is about 1 to 5 m. The average is 2.3 m as shown above in Table 3-2-3-4. In Thongwa, it is 3.4 m and deeper than in the other townships.

4) Capacity As shown in Figure 3-2-3-33, the capacity of the pond mainly varies from a few to 15 thousand m3. In Kyauktan, the dominant capacity is less than 1,000 m3. As shown in Figure 3-2-3-34, a large capacity pond is found more in Kayan and Thongwa.

3-2-4 Geophysical Survey

A geophysical survey was made with two types of surveys aiming at 1) the confirmation of seawater intrusion and 2) clarifying the spatial geological structure. The details of the survey result are described below.

3-2-4-1 Confirmation Survey for Seawater Intrusion

Seawater intrusion was confirmed by a (quasi-) 2D survey with the TDEM (Time Domain Electro-Magnetic) method. The survey line is located in SEZ, settling the SEZ western border to 1.7 km inland (eastside) of the middle of SEZ. On the survey line, 85 measuring points are placed at 20 meter intervals with 100 meters of detective depth. In addition, the 1D survey was also made at the proposed drilling point planned by another JICA survey (Preparatory Study of Thilawa SEZ Infrastructure Development). As a result of the survey (refer to Figure 3-2-4-1)1, the conductive layer (low resistivity) was found on the western side (Yangon River) and traced inland (Thilawa Reservoir) with the form of wedging into the deeper horizon. Since the conductive layer shows as very low, less than 10 ohm-m, it is correlative with the saline

3-2-4-2 Structural Survey

Aquifer structure was detected by two methods of Electrical Survey (Vertical Electrical Sounding: VES) and TDEM. On the field, VES points are placed on a vacant space able to maintain the necessary distance of a measurement line to avoid obstacles of roads and houses. As for TDEM, the points are settled on the (electro-magnetic) noise-free spaces far from power line, transformers and conductive circuit (iron fences, bars, pipes, etc.). Finally, 43 points of VES and 60 points of TDEM are measured as shown in Figure 3-2-1-1 (presented above).

(1) Measurement and Analysis

As mentioned above, the VES and TDEM survey are applied for the structural survey. By checking the Electro-magnetic noise on the field, VES was carried out on the B-B’ Line crossing the populated area which has a high intensity of noise while TDEM was made on the A-A’ Line running in the rural area under a low noise condition. The process of analysis is as follows:

1) VES Survey A VES Survey was carried out with a Schlumberger array, using 500m and 1000m of survey line, which is capable to detect 150 m and 300 m deep. The survey result was arranged into ρ-a curve (apparent resistivity-depth curve) for conforming the data reliability and providing smooth inversion analysis. Taking specific resistivity of 15 to 20 layers by the smooth inversion, the layered analysis was followed to fix the resistivity layered models. The analytical result of drilling points (D-2, D-5) are shown in Figure 3-2-4-2.

2) TEDM Survey Since the SEZ is covered by conductive soils so the induced eddy current is rapidly consumed within the shallow horizon, it is hard to penetrate the deeper necessary horizons. To meet the planned

depth, the loop size is change to the larger and coil is used in the more sensitive configuration2. For the analysis, the same as the VES procedure, a series of ρ-a curve, smooth inversion and layered analysis were carried out to recognize the aquifer positions and their structure. The analytical result of the drilling point (D-4) and well pints (D-3, 4) are shown below. 1e3 D-1 Drilling: Resistivity contrast is D-1(TDEM A-6) Smooth スムース・ インバージョンInversuin not so clear, but relatively high and low Analysis 1e2 解析

(2) Resistivity Profile

The resistivity survey, either VES or TEDM, aims to estimate the geological structure by the measurement of the earth’s “resistivity”. Along with this purpose, the 1-D (vertical) survey was conducted for obtaining the specific resistivity at 103 points made up of 60 TDEM points and 43 VES points. These results were then arranged in the A-A’ line (East-West line, 40 TDEM points) and B-B’ line (South-North Line, 41 points), and used for delineating the resistivity profiles. In the interpretation for them, the resistivity continuities (or discontinuities) are traced in the profiles and are correlated with the geological boundaries and faulting systems (refer to Figure 3-2-4-4 and Figure 3-2-4-5). The interpretation for resistivity profiles are described below.

A-A' Profile (Section): The line was arranged in the east-west direction and was 33 km long. Its western margin (A) was set at the center of SEZ and the eastern end (A’) was placed at the center of Thongwa T/S. The resistivity values measured show the wide range from 1 ohm-m (> 1,000 μS/cm) to several 100 ohm-m (< 10 μS/cm) and their resistivity structure is traced in the horizontal (east-west) direction especially in the upper horizon. The conductive layer, indicating the less than 5 ohm-m, lies on the Thanlyin-Kyauktan Hill and extends over 25 km to the east with the increment of its depth. So, the layer thickness is thinner at the western side and became thicker towards the east by which the maximum thickness of 100 meters is at the eastern end of line. In addition, the very low resistivity layer indicated as a saline layer is also in place inter-bedded at the superficial zone. With the comparative interpretation between the resistivity pattern and geologic structure, this conductive layer is correlative with the alluvial layer mainly composed of the clayey deposits with the saline sands. The lower layer below the Alluvial layer is relatively resistive and is divided into four (4) layers of: (1) Slightly Low (5-10 ohm-m); (2) Medium (10-50 ohm-m); (3) Slightly High (50-100 ohm-m); and (4) High (over 100 ohm-m). In comparison with the theoretical standard, if an unknown effect from pore-water is eliminating, they are respectively correlative with: (1)Mudstone; (2) Muddy Alternation; (3) Alternation; (4) Sandy Alternation; and (5)Sandstone. The Sandstone is observed at Thanlyin-Kyauktan Hill (4km-6km section) and the western border of Thongwa T/S (14 km-22 km section). On the other hand, Mudstone is detected at the eastern border of Thongwa T/S (30 km-33 km section). At the eastern end of the A-A’ line, there is a dissentious zone which is close to the assumable position of the (concealed) Sagaing Faults.

B-B' Profile (Section): The line lies in the east-west direction and is 26 km long. Its southern end (B) is at the Hmaw Wun River of SEZ while the northern end (B’) reaches the Bago River. The resistivity has a range from the several ohm-m (several 1,000 μS/cm) to the several 100 ohm-m (around 10 μS/cm) and generally shows higher resistivity than that of the A-A’ section. The horizontal (north-south) continuity is clear as the high resistivity zone (>100 ohm-m) at the cross-point with the A-A’ section. It extends toward the north with the increases of its depth up to 200 meters max. With the comparison to

3-53 Data Collection Survey on Water Resources Potential f or Thilawa Special Economic Zone and Adjoining Areas

the surface geologic structure, the zone can be corresponded to the Irrawaddy Group. The lower horizon overlain by the Irrawaddy Group is characterized by medium resistivity (10-50 ohm-m) and can correlate to the Pegu Group. The boundary between Irrawaddy and the Pegu Group has in general the gentle undulation dipping as low as 1 to 2 degree of the apparent dipping, even though it partly involves a structural disturbance being a steep or even reverse angle. At the Thanlyin T/S, located at the northern end of the line, the high resistivity (assuming as the Irrawaddy Group) is traced with a thick zone, while the low resistivity exits at the other end of the line near the Hmaw Wun River. At this riverside, very low resistivity is observed and traced vertically to the deeper horizon. Its resistivity contrast may be derived from the existence of faulting systems (at 2 km and 9 km of section).

As a result of the analysis for the resistivity classification of the A-A’ and B-B’ sections, both the Medium resistivity (10-50 ohm-m showing as ‘Yellowish Green’ in Figure 3-2-4-4 and Figure 3-2-4-5) and Slightly High resistivity (50-100 ohm-m showing as ‘Yellow’ in Figure 3-2-4-4 and Figure 3-2-4-5) are correlative with a productive aquifers.
