CRONIN & WEATHERBY Time for a New Narrative on Mekong Hydropower INTRODUCTION This issue brief – the second in Stimson’s “Letters from the Mekong” series – examines the current status of mitigation efforts at Laos’ Xayaburi and Don Sahong dam projects and the relevance of the existing narrative surrounding hydropower development on the river’s mainstream. Based on extensive research on the status and expected impacts of these projects, the authors of this brief have concluded that the current narrative of inev- itability surrounding the future of the Mekong is increasingly at odds with what is in fact a very fluid situation.

  • The Xayaburi Dam the Xayaburi Dam a LOOMING THREAT to the MEKONG RIVER
    The Mekong River, downstream of the proposed site for the Xayaburi Dam The Xayaburi Dam A LOOMING THREAT TO THE MEKONG RIVER ocated in a mountainous valley in Northern Laos, the proposed Xayaburi hydropower dam is the L most advanced of eleven large dams planned for the Lower Mekong River’s mainstream. If built, the dam will cause irreversible and permanent ecological change to a mighty river that feeds millions of people, forcibly resettle over 2,100 people and directly affect over 202,000 people, and could push iconic and endangered fi sh species, such as the Mekong Giant Catfi sh, to extinction. The Lower Mekong River’s distinctive annual fl ood cycle supports through a regional decision-making process called the “Procedures a vast and intricate web of life that is shared between the countries for Notifi cation, Prior Consultation and Agreement” (PNPCA), of Thailand, Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam. The Mekong is one facilitated by the Mekong River Commission. of the most biodiverse river systems in the world and is host to the world’s most productive freshwater fi shery. Yet, this remarkable If approved, the dam would create serious environmental damage resource, which provides income and food for tens of millions of to the river’s aquatic resources and fi sheries both locally and basin- people, is under threat due to proposals to build the Xayaburi wide. Around 2,100 people would be resettled by the project, and Dam on the river’s mainstream that has the potential to more than 202,000 people living near the dam would suffer impacts irrevocably change the river forever.

  • Don Sahong Brief
    DON SAHONG DAM BRIEF VERY HIGH RISK FOR CAMBODIA January 2014 Key Messages: - The Don Sahong Dam would block the only channel suitable for year-round fish migration between Cambodia, Lao People’s Democratic Republic (PDR) and Thailand. - Would cause a very high risk for national and local fisheries with impacts likely to be experienced throughout the Lower Mekong Basin and repercussions for food security and nutrition for at least 75% of Cambodia’s population, and the nation’s economy. - There currently exist no proven methods to mitigate the dam’s impact on Mekong fisheries. - The EIA and supporting documents submitted by Mega First incorporates inappropriate methodologies with recommendations not supported by scientific evidence. - Financial returns of the US$300 million dam are limited and disproportionate with the expected high risks. - Construction and operation of the dam would likely hasten the extinction of the remaining 85 Critically Endangered Mekong River population Irrawaddy dolphins. - The Don Sahong Dam The proposed 260 MW Don Sahong Dam is one of twelve hydropower projects currently being studied and proposed for construction on the lower stretches of the Mekong River. Located 1.5 kilometres from the Lao-Cambodian border in Champasak Province, Lao PDR, the dam will block the Hou Sahong channel, one of the main dry season channels that comprise the Khone Falls section of the Mekong. The Don Sahong would be the second dam, after Xayaburi, which is also located in Lao PDR, to be approved for construction on the mainstream of the Lower Mekong River. Lao PDR has prioritized hydropower development with the electricity generated from the Don Sahong and Xayaburi Dams being planned for export to Thailand.

Hydropower dams, especially large dams on major tributaries and mainstreams, have long been highly controversial because of their negative impact on other components of the water-food-energy-livelihoods “nexus.” In the lower, Southeast Asian half of the 5,080-kilometer Mekong River, with an ecology that has evolved over millions of years to annual extremes of flood and drought, the primary problem of large dams is that they interfere with the river’s life-giving hydrology, block the spawning migration of highly important catch fisheries.
