  • Management of Lakes in India M.S.Reddy1 and N.V.V.Char2

    Management of Lakes in India M.S.Reddy1 and N.V.V.Char2

    10 March 2004 Management of Lakes in India M.S.Reddy1 and N.V.V.Char2 1. Introduction There is no specific definition for Lakes in India. The word “Lake” is used loosely to describe many types of water bodies – natural, manmade and ephemeral including wetlands. Many of them are euphemistically called Lakes more by convention and a desire to be grandiose rather than by application of an accepted definition. Vice versa, many lakes are categorized as wetlands while reporting under Ramsar Convention. India abounds in water bodies, a preponderance of them manmade, typical of the tropics. The manmade (artificial) water bodies are generally called Reservoirs, Ponds and Tanks though it is not unusual for some of them to be referred to as lakes. Ponds and tanks are small in size compared to lakes and reservoirs. While it is difficult to date the natural lakes, most of the manmade water bodies like Ponds and Tanks are historical. The large reservoirs are all of recent origin. All of them, without exception, have suffered environmental degradation. Only the degree of degradation differs. The degradation itself is a result of lack of public awareness and governmental indifference. The situation is changing but slowly. Environmental activism and legal interventions have put sustainability of lakes in the vanguard of environmental issues. This paper is an attempt at presenting a comprehensive view of the typical problems experienced in the better known lakes, their present environmental status and efforts being made to make them environmentally sustainable. 1.1 Data India is well known for the huge variance in its lakes, but the data is nebulous.

They are settled mainly on the continental shelf as benthic and sedentary animals due to their heavy protective shell. They can stand a wide range of environmental conditions. They are found in the whole trophic chain and are particle feeders, herbivorous, carnivorous, and predators. Exploited mollusc species are numerous. The main groups of gastropods are the whelks, conchs, abalones, tops, and turbans; and those of bivalve species are oysters, mussels, scallops, and clams. They are mainly used for food, but also for ornamental purposes, in shellcraft industries and jewelery. Consumed species are produced by fisheries and aquaculture, the latter representing 75% of the total 11.4 millions metric tons landed worldwide in 1996. Aquaculture, which mainly concerns bivalves (oysters, scallops, and mussels) relies on the simple techniques of producing juveniles, natural spat collection, and hatchery, and the fact that many species are planktivores.

A b s t r a c t K e y w o r d s Lakes are the fresh water resources in Garhwal and Kumaun region of Uttarakhand. Various lakes like Nainital, Bhimtal, Sataal, Naukuchiatal, Khurpatal etc. has a large human population depended upon them as a source of tourism and for potable water supply. Due to the topography and high slopes in and around Nainital, the water supply departments (Jal Sansthan and Jal Nigam) are mainly dependent upon lakes ecosystem to meet the demand of stakeholders. Therefore for regulating the tourism based economy, agricultural and social activities within the lake surrounding areas of Nainital district of Uttarakhand State, requires an urgent need to maintain the healthy status of lakes water ecosystem as a sustainable tourism resource. The main identified problems are of domestic and sewage contamination and heavy growth of weeds due to enrichment of nutrients which has even resultant into problem of Eutrophication eutrophication in past. Phyto-remediation by floating rafts technology was Lakes implemented for conservation of these fresh water resources along beautification of lakes and tourist sites.
