“WATER FOR WELFARE – AN UTTARAKHAND INITIATIVE” VIRTUAL CENTRE OF EXCELLENCE IN THE FORM OF FEDERATION OF EXISTING INSTITUTION FOR LEVERAGING HYDRO/ POWER/ WATER RESOURCES IN UTTARAKHAND

A BACKGROUND NOTE

The immense potential of water in Uttarakhand can be looked at in two ways based on end use for proper harnessing, management and utilization.

• Consumptive uses, drinking water, irrigation, rain water water-harvesting for potable/non-potable uses, inland fisheries and industries. • Non-consumptive uses, hydro-power, power for cottage industries through water-mills, water sports/tourism etc. Need for a centre was felt and for this efforts were initiated by Chief Secretary, Dr.R.S. Tolia in Dec. 2003.

• Thereafter a group piloted by Shri M. Ramachandran, Additional Chief Secretary suggested the concept of the Federation and worked out details of its structure. • Government of Uttarakhand issued an order on August 5, 2004 (Annexure-I) for establishing. Virtual Centre of Excellence in the form of “Federation of Existing Institutions in Uttarakhand for Leveraging Water/ Hydropower Resources” in Uttarakhand. IIT Roorkee agreed to provide the Secretariat for this in the beginning.

The mandate for the Federation is to:

• Address basic manpower issues relevant in a hydro potential rich State such as: - How to produce engineers, designers, environmentalists, social scientists of quality related to hydropower. - How to create and strengthen expertise in EIA. • Establish a constant process of dialogue among power entities, project organizations, academic institutions like Universities, Engineering Colleges, Polytechnics, ITIs etc. and provide for improved functioning. • Concentrate on design area so that the State develops in-house strength. • Facilitate revision of syllabus in the State’s technical institutions, keeping in view the requirements for obtaining accreditation. • Facilitate training for State Government’s engineers so that there is an immediate upgradation of their capabilities. • Organize training programmes for students and staff of technical institutions. • Set up networking facilities among all institutions. • Take up any other aspect relevant to better utilization of the water resources of the state.

The Federation has two levels of participation for existing institutions having strengths and activities in development of water resources & its usage. • Core Group – Institutions with substantial involvement. • Associated Group – Institutions with limited involvement at present. The list is expendable and institutions are expected to move from one group to other. Accordingly 3 more users organizations viz. Forest Department, Jal Nigam and Jalagam Prabandhan have been added later.

Prof. A.K. Pant, Coordinator, Uttaranchal Development Cell, IIT Roorkee welcomed the participants and gave a brief background of the Federation. He specially welcomed the Vice Chancellors of the Universities of the state who grace the meeting at the request of Shri M. Ramchandran.

After the introduction of the participants Prof. Prem Vrat highlighted the importance of water resources in the economy and development of the state. Besides power generation, Irrigation, and household uses, water sports and related tourism could be a great asset in his remarks.

Shri Ramchandran, emphasized the benefits of networking of expert and user organizations, which is being sought through this unique forum. He said that development of water resources would result in significant employment generation as about 3 persons per MW are directly employed in power projects besides indirect employment generation. For this there is need for building technical capacities within the state. For this a concerted effort is required at all levels from Engineering Colleges to ITIs and from universities to schools.

Dr. Natrajan outlined the efforts being made by Garhwal University in creating jobs oriented courses. Dr. R.C. Pant assured the support of Kumaon University in capacity building. He also emphasized the need for courses on ecotourism. Dr. Parag Diwan of Petroleum University mentioned that the university is evolving the jobs oriented courses related to energy sector. Prof. Shukla representing Pantnagar University offered the facilities of infrastructure and faculty in capacity building and preparation of syllabi. Shri K.S. Tyagi from Sanskrit Vishva Vidyala Hardwar informed that village level management programmes are organized by them.

90 Shri Awadh B. Giri of UJVNL mentioned the need for skill development of existing staff in power stations. He suggested an arrangement with neighbouring ITIs and Polytechnics for this purpose. The Academy of Administration, Nainital and State Engineering Academy, Kalagarh placed their excellent infrastructure for organising HRD programmes of all kinds.

Many related points concerning data related to water were raised by the participants. The state government was requested to help in release of restricted maps, discharge data of gauge rivers/streams and data for work related to utilization of water resources. It was also felt that different agencies should coordinate and avoid duplication in acquiring expensive data. Such data could be acquired in the name of Chief Secretary of the State Government. Since discharge is the basic data for any water related development work the state government was requested to invest in gauging the maximum number of streams as a future investment for effective and integrated and optimum development of water resources. The density of meteorological stations in the state is too meager.

It was also agreed that a common comprehensive GIS platform should be evolved. The efforts already made by AHEC, IIT Roorkee was appreciated and it was agreed this could be base for such an effort. The action items and targets as agreed in the meeting of Jan. 18, 2005 were presented and discussed as the agenda and has been taken up as follows:

1. Release of Compendium of Expertise and Facilities: Prof Prem Vrat released the expertise and facilities compendium and presented the first copy to Shri Ramchandran. Shri Arun Kumar briefly highlighted the contents and requested all members to update the contents and fill up the gaps so that a revised edition could be released in the next two months. It was appreciated that the AHEC, IIT Roorkee could bring out such compendium within the target date inspite of resource constraints.

2. Setting up of the Corpus: Shri Ramchandran informed that an amount of Rupees one crore is being provided by the GoU for setting up the corpus fund. The return on the investments of the corpus fund will be available for meeting establishment needs of the federation and will also enable it to take up some activities on its own. The corpus shall be built up further by charging some agreed amount from the user agencies for the services provided through the federation.

3.

Dr. G.L. Asawa, Chairman, welcomed the members and apprised them about the scope of the EIA- Committee [i.e., Committee for assessing the Manpower requirements for carrying out Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA)] which is as follows:

· To assess the manpower requirement at different levels for carrying out EIA of various Water Resources / Hydropower / Urban development and other Engineering projects. · Steps required for meeting the manpower requirement including strengthening required in existing facilities/ institution.

The responses received from Shri Rajeev K. Tiwari (Registrar, FRI, Dehradun), Dr. Ramakar Jha (Scientist ‘E1’, NIH, Roorkee) and Shri A.K. Jain (Senior Geologist, GSI, Dehradun) in response of the letter no. CED/GLA/W.F.W./07 dated Nov.06, 2007 were read out.

The recommendations of the committee in the matter are as follows:

The committee is of the opinion that there should be an organization (may be called Core group or Nodal group or any other suitable name) that should have the following technical personnel for the purpose:

1. A Water Resources Engineer to Head the organization.

115 2. Three persons with specializations in Civil Engineering, Environmental Engineering and Social Sciences. 3. Six-to-eight persons having specialization in geological sciences, geotechnical, GIS, forestry (botany), irrigation and hydropower, wildlife, hydrology, structural engineering and related subjects.

50% of the technical personnel would be required for Ministerial purposes/Secretarial assistance.

It is expected that the Client agency (Govt./Private) conceiving the project would submit the project for its EIA studies to the proposed organization. The technical personnel of the organization would identify the studies required to be done for the purpose. Thereafter, these studies would be assigned, in a consultancy mode, to different experts who would be drawn from Premier Institutions like IIT Roorkee, National Institute of Hydrology, Forest Research Institute, ICFRI, Wildlife Institute of India, Botanical Survey of India (BSI), Survey of India, Wadia Institute of Himalayan Geology, Geological Survey of India, Indian Institute of Remote Sensing, People’s Science Institute, etc. The concerned experts, depending upon the nature of the studies, may also demand an additional amount (in addition to the honorarium and Institutes overheads) required for strengthening the facilities available to them, if already not available with them and required for the study.

The committee would also like to suggest that the clearance by MoEF be given only after the above- stated organization has given the required clearance.

The meeting ended with a vote of thanks to the chair.

116 Annexure - 10 Minutes of the meeting of EIA – Sub-committee

Minutes of the meeting of EIA – Sub-committee held on January 23, 2008 at 3.00 P.M. in the Office of Prof. G.L. Asawa, Head, Deptt. of Civil Engg. The following were present :

Dr. G.L. Asawa, Professor & Head, Department of Civil Engineering, I.I.T.Roorkee Shri Arun Kumar, Head, AHEC Dr. Ramakar Jha, NIH, Roorkee

Apology was received from Prof. N.S.Panwar, Head, University of Science & Instrumentation Centre, HNB Garhwal University and Shri Debashish Sen, Director, Centre for Participatory Water-shed Development, PSI, Dehradun for not being able to attend the meeting.

Chairman welcomed Shri Arun Kumar and Dr. Ramakar Jha to the meeting. Minutes of the meeting held on 5th January 2008 were confirmed. Thereafter, Shri Arun Kumar explained the problems related to setting up of altogether a new Organisation for the purpose of EIA Studies as was proposed by the EIA sub- committee. He also informed that besides Hydro-power Projects, Urban Projects and Transportation Projects would also be requiring EIA studies for obtaining administrative clearance. The following recommendations were made:

(1) The Committee, after deliberations, decided to have a Virtual Cell consisting of 07 senior personnel - one each from IIT, Roorkee, IRI Roorkee, NIH Roorkee, University of Petroleum & Energy Studies at Dehradun, Wadia Institute of Himalayan Geology at Dehradun, Forest Research Institute at Dehradun and H.N.B. University at Garhwal. This Virtual Cell would replace the Organization that was suggested to be created in the previous meeting of January 05, 2008. The processing of the EIA related tasks is suggested so as to be similar to the suggestion of the EIA Sub-committee in its meeting of January 5th, 2008. For the sake of completeness, the same is described below:

The Client agency (Govt. / Private) conceiving the project would send the request for carrying out EIA studies to the proposed Virtual Cell. The Virtual Cell would identify the studies required to be done for the purpose and thereafter, these studies would be assigned, in a consultancy mode, to different organizations and/or experts who would be drawn from Premier Institutions like IIT Roorkee, National Institute of Hydrology, Forest Research Institute, ICFRI, Wildlife Institute of India, Botanical Survey of India (BSI), Survey of India, Wadia Institute of Himalayan Geology, Geological Survey of India, Indian Institute of Remote Sensing, People's Science Institute, etc.

(2) The Committee appreciated the need of having a data base about availability of the expertise and infrastructure (for the EIA related matters of Uttarakhand projects) in different organizations/Institutes of Uttarakhand. Dr. Ramakar Jha of NIH, Roorkee agreed to prepare a questionnaire for this purpose. The questionnaire would also include questions so as to know if an organization would require additional strengthening of their infrastructure for conducting EIA studies. On its compilation (targeted to be completed in two months), the said information in the form of booklet and web site shall be circulated among user agencies (government as well as private) for sending their requests.

(3) For the purpose of monitoring environmental impact during the construction and after commissioning of a project, the Committee suggests that the Polytechnics and degree colleges of the State located in different place depending upon proximity and available facilities are identified for these tasks.

The meeting ended with a vote of thanks to the Chair.
