Orissa State Water Plan iii PREFACE This document develops a plan for the effective management of Orissa’s water resources with a view to enhancing the economic and social welfare of the State’s population. It presents a concise description of state-wide relevant conditions by consolidating the knowledge gained by OWPO in elaborating the basin plans for the State’s major rivers. Responding to the expected provisions of the Orissa State Water Policy being developed, the document identifies the water-related issues that need to be addressed and proposes a coherent framework for the Government of Orissa to develop and undertake the interventions necessary to meet the needs of the water users while avoiding conflicts and maintaining the integrity of the environment. The preparation of the document benefited from the input of the government departments and agencies concerned with water matters, with whom OWPO interacted in the course of developing the river basin plans and drafting this document. The document has five parts. Part A presents the salient features of Orissa by providing the basic information about the State’s location, extent and population (Chapter 1), describing its administrative and governance setup (Chapter 2), and characterising its economy (Chapter 3) and socio-economic conditions (Chapter 4). Part B defines the context for water management in Orissa by stating the objective to be pursued and principles to be followed in managing the State’s water (Chapter 5), reviewing the relevant national and state policies (Chapter 6), identifying the applicable legal provisions (Chapter 7), taking stock of the institutions responsible for water management or having the capacity to provide relevant support (Chapter 8), and reporting on the status of water-management planning for the State (Chapter 9). Part C describes in Chapters 10 through 16 the constituents of the State’s resource base: human, land, mineral, water, forest, livestock, and fisheries resources. Part D discusses the use and management of the State’s water resources. It describes the water’s use in the different sectors of social and economic activity – domestic, agriculture, energy, navigation, and recreation and tourism (Chapters 17 through 22) –, assesses the water quality of the State’s rivers (Chapter 23), reviews the methods of estimating environmental flow (Chapter 24), establishes the state water balance for the present and the 2051 planning horizon (Chapter 25), brings out the critical aspects of managing the States water resources (Chapter 26), and characterises the challenge of dealing with natural hazards (Chapter 27). Part E summarizes the principal issues and problems facing the management of Orissa’s water resources (Chapter 28) and proposes a framework integrating the interventions of the State’s concerned departments and agencies into a coherent plan to reach the goal of sustainable exploitation of Orissa’s water and related resources (Chapter 29). Data for this document has been collected from various sources, some of which have been mentioned in this report and reproduced as it appears in the respective documents. The correctness of data have not been independently verified.

Accepted 12 November, 2010 The olive ridley turtle (Lepidochelys olivacea ) is known for its spectacular mass nesting behavior. The Rushikulya river mouth has emerged as one of the major mass nesting site in the world. To study the status of hydrological characteristics viz. depth, air and water temperature, salinity, conductivity, pH, total suspended solid, turbidity, dissolve oxygen, biochemical oxygen demand, nutrients (NO 2-N, NO 3- N, (NH 3+NH 4)-N, SiO 3 and PO 4-P), petroleum hydrocarbon and dissolved trace metals such as Pb, Cd and Hg are evaluated in mass nesting period of olive ridley turtles at Rushikulya mass nesting site. In order to evaluate the status level of the pollutants and ultimately to protect the precious marine environment, an intensive monitoring has been carried out near Rushikulya, Gopalpur, Chatrapur and Haripur Creek of mass nesting site. The basic scientific objective of the present study is to determine the concentration, migration pattern and dynamics of the pollutants in the estuary and coastal environment.

  • Vamsadhara River Water Dispute
    Vamsadhara River Water Dispute drishtiias.com/printpdf/vamsadhara-river-water-dispute Why in News The Chief Ministers of Andhra Pradesh and Odisha will hold talks to clear out all differences with regard to the sharing of Vamsadhara river waters. Andhra Pradesh wants to build the Neradi bridge across the river which will be possible only after Odisha’s consent. Key Points Andhra Pradesh also wants to complete the inter-linking of its Nagavali river with the Vamsadhara and expand the Madduvalasa Reservoir project soon. Madduvalasa Project is a Medium Irrigation Project with a reservoir across Suvarnamukhi river, a tributary of Nagavali river. Agriculture is the only assured economic activity for the people living in the backward region and in the absence of rapid industrialisation, there is a need to concentrate on irrigation projects to make agriculture a viable activity. Background: In February 2006, Odisha sent a complaint to the Central Government under Section 3 of the Inter-State River Water Disputes (ISRWD) Act, 1956 regarding its water disputes with Andhra Pradesh pertaining to Inter-State River Vamsadhara. It demanded for the constitution of an Inter-State Water Disputes Tribunal for adjudication. Grievances of Orissa: Adverse effect of undertaking the construction of a canal (called a flood flow canal at Katragada, Andhra Pradesh) taking off from the river Vamsadhara. The flood flow canal would result in drying up the existing river bed and consequent shifting of the river affecting the groundwater table. Failure of Andhra Pradesh to implement the terms of the inter-state agreement relating to use, distribution and control of waters of vamsadhara and its valley.

In this study, decadal LULC maps of 1985, 1995, 2005 and predicted-2025 of the Subarnarekha, Brahmani, Baitarani, Mahanadi and Nagavali River basins of eastern India were analyzed in the framework of the variable infiltration capacity (VIC) macro scale hydrologic model to estimate their relative consequences. The model simulation showed a decrease in ET with 0.0276% during 1985–1995, but a slight increase with 0.0097% during 1995–2005. Conversely, runoff and base flow showed an overall increasing trend with 0.0319 and 0.0041% respectively during 1985–1995.

  • Sea Turtle Nesting Habitats on the Coast of Orissa1
    88 Marine Turtles of India 7 Sea Turtle Nesting Habitats on the Coast of Orissa1 Bivash Pandav, B C Choudhury and C S Kar In Orissa, four species of sea turtles—olive ridley turtles, green turtles, hawksbill turtles and leatherback turtles—have been reported, though the nesting of only one species, the olive ridley (which is the most common species along the east coast of India), has been confirmed (Dash and Kar 1990). Gahirmatha, one of the major mass-nesting beaches of olive ridleys in the world, has been known to the scientific world since 1973 (Daniel and Hussain 1973, Bustard 1974, 1976, Kar 1980, Bustard and Kar 1981, Kar and Bhaskar 1982, Biswas 1982, Silas et al 1984). However, except for the Gahirmatha nesting population, very little is known of the conservation status of the olive ridley or of their nesting populations and habitats in India. Scientific research on sea turtles started in Orissa only in the 1970s. But even this was largely confined to the rookery at Gahirmatha (Bustard 1976, Kar 1980, Kar and Bhaskar 1982, Silas et al 1983, Silas et al 1984, Kar and Dash 1984, James et al 1989, Dash and Kar 1990). In 1974–75, eggs collected from the Gahirmatha and Konarak coasts were artificially hatched for the first time (Biswas et al 1977), but little attention has been paid to other sea turtle nesting beaches along the Orissa coast. In fact, a second mass- nesting ground of the olive ridley in Orissa—Devi river mouth in Cuttack district— was discovered only in 1981 (Kar 1982), and there has been no information from this site since 1982.
