  • Earthquakes, Dam Design and Tehri Project* by C.D
    Earthquakes, Dam Design And Tehri Project* by C.D. Thatte** DAMS AND THEIR DESIGN PHILOSOPHY ROLE PLAYED BY DAMS AND RESERVOIRS Dams have been built across rivers by mankind right from the dawn of civilisation for storing the river flow during rainy season and r~leasing it during the remaining part of year for either domestic use or for irrigation. Flood control has been another important function of these dams. While releasing water from the storages, hydroelectric energy is also generated. With the growth of population all these functions of dams and storages have assumed great significance and hence every civilisation has tried to keep pace with the needs ofthe society for food, energy, fibre and well being through this activity of water resources development. INPUTS FOR SAFE DESIGN Dams constitute perhaps the largest and the most complex of structures being built by civil engineers. Basic input of water is dependent on nature, so also the river course, its history, its underlying strata and its stability. Assessment of the variability of these natural phenomena and providing for it in the design of a dam, has been an important challenge for the dam builders. The dams are built to last from 100 to 300 years depending upon merits of each case. During their service life, they are designed to withstand all the possible destabilising forces with a certain factor of safety which has been an indicator of a factor of ignorance or lack of knowledge of various response processes of materials used in construction, the stresses caused, the strains experienced and finally the failure mechanism.

  • Hydrological Impact of Deforestation in the Central Himalaya
    Hydrology ofMountainous^4reoi (Proceedings of the Strbské Pleso Workshop, Czechoslovakia, June 1988). IAHS Publ. no. 190, 1990. Hydrological impact of deforestation in the central Himalaya M. J. HAIGH Geography Unit, Oxford Polytechnic Headington, Oxford, England J. S. RAWAT, H. S. BISHT Department of Geography, Kumaun University Almora, U.P., India ABSTRACT Deforestation is the most serious environmental problem in Uttarakhand, home of the Chipko Movement, the Third World's leading nongovernmental organization (NGO) dedicated to forest con­ servation. This group exists because of the rural people's concern for the loss of forests and their personal experience of the envi­ ronmental consequences. Despite this, it has become fashionable for scientists from some international organizations to argue there is little evidence for recent deforestation, desertification, acce­ lerated erosion and increased flooding in the region. This paper tries to set the record straight. It summarizes results collected by field scientists in Uttarakhand. These data reinforce the popu­ lar view that deforestation and environmental decline are very ser­ ious problems. Preliminary results from the Kumaun University/Ox­ ford Polytechnic instrumented catchment study are appended. This catchment is set in dense Chir (Pinus roxburghii) forest on a steep slope over mica schist in a protected wildlife sanctuary on the ur­ ban fringe at Almora, U.P. The results demonstrate a pattern of sediment flushing associated with the rising flows of the Monsoon. INTRODUCTION Deforestation is the most serious environmental problem in Uttar­ akhand, the Himalaya of Uttar Pradesh, India (Fig. 1). This tract, which covers nearly 52 thousand km2 on the western borders of Nepal, is home of the "Chipko" Movement, the Third World's leading NGO devoted to forest conservation (Haigh, 1988a).

  • Resettlement and Rehabilitation of Developmental Project Affected Persons and Communities; Relevant Case Studies
    RESETTLEMENT AND REHABILITATION OF DEVELOPMENTAL PROJECT AFFECTED PERSONS AND COMMUNITIES; RELEVANT CASE STUDIES By The Department of Environmental Science Sri Aurobindo College Introduction ■ The pursuit of development led to environmental devastation and exploitation of nature. ■ The construction of large dams is specially affected small farmers, landless laborers and tribals and rendering them homeless. ■ A large dam alters the course of nature and the construction of dams has connected ecological hazards and a deep impact on livelihood of people. The Tehri Dam Case Study ■ The Tehri Dam is the highest dam in India, 2nd highest in Asia and 8th highest in World.It is a multi-purpose rock and earth-fill embankment dam on the Bhagirathi River near Tehri in Uttarakhand, India. It is the primary dam of the THDC India Ltd. and the Tehri hydroelectric complex. Phase 1 was completed in 2006. ■ Reasons behind protest – Religious beliefs – Tehri dam has been conceptualized as one of the highest dams of the world on two Himalayan Rivers, the Bhagirathi and Bilangana. One reason was that Bhagirathi was considered as a scared river and constructing a dam would irreparably harm the holy places on the banks of the river downstream. – Seismic prone area – In addition to the human rights concerns, the project has spurred concerns about the environmental consequences of locating such a large dam in the fragile ecosystem of the Himalayan foothills. There are further concerns regarding the dam's geological stability. The Tehri dam is in the Central Himalayan Seismic Gap, a major geologic fault zone – Displacement Apprehensive about the rehabilitation and resettlement policy of the government.

  • Post-Tehri Dam Irrigation Service and Modernization of Upper Ganga Canal System
    POST-TEHRI DAM IRRIGATION SERVICE AND MODERNIZATION OF UPPER GANGA CANAL SYSTEM Ravindra Kumar1 ABSTRACT Multiple uses of Upper Ganga Canal (UGC) water- serving thirsty towns, major water feeder to Agra irrigation canals (of Yamuna basin), producing power at many UGC drops, presently irrigating an average 0.6 million ha against cultivable command area of 0.9 mha, generating water benefits @ US$ 1500/ha cropped area at the annual working cost of US $ 20/ha (2007-08) and revenue realized @ US $ 6/ha (based on irrigation rate of 1995) having cost of water @ US$ 0.10/m3 justifies its capacity modernization from existing 297 m3/s to 400 m3/s as a result of additional water 113 m3/s available post Tehri dam for water distribution in Kharif (wet season): 3 weeks on, one week off and in Rabi(dry season): 2 weeks on and two weeks off. Based on the ecological flow requirement for a specific reach of the river Ganga, the bare optimal flow need has been estimated as 72% for upper and 45 to 47% of mean annual run off natural for middle reaches respectively. SUMMARY & CONCLUSIONS The Ganges River, like most Indian rivers is highly degraded and regulated with over- abstraction of water posing a threat to its many river sub-basins. The combined effect of low flow and discharge of polluting effluent into River Ganga has caused severe deterioration in the quality of water. Vulnerability of 5 million people livelihoods and biota to climate change calls for prioritization of adaptation strategies. Three key questions are to be addressed: what impact does flow have on water quality? What impact does water quality changes have on biota; and what impact does water quality changes have on cultural and social aspects? To establish a framework for sustainable energy and water resources management in Upper Ganga river basin, it is concluded that dilution of pollution by releasing additional water from Tehri dam is not advisable at the cost of irrigation and hydropower generation which is another scarcer resource.

  • Multipurpose Water Uses of Hydropower Reservoirs
    MULTIPURPOSE WATER USES OF HYDROPOWER RESERVOIRS 7 APRIL 2015 “SHARING THE WATER USES OF MULTIPURPOSE HYDROPOWER RESERVOIRS: THE SHARE CONCEPT” FINAL VERSION This paper presents the main deliverables of the EDF – WWC framework “multipurpose water uses of hydropower reservoirs”. Multipurpose hydropower reservoirs are designed and/or operated to provide services beyond electricity generation, such as water supply, flood and drought management, irrigation, navigation, fisheries, environmental services and recreational activities, etc. These reservoir purposes can conflict at times but are also often complementary: a major challenge with multi‑purpose reservoirs is sharing water amongst competing users. This framework provides: tools to avoid/minimize tensions among users, governance issues for all stages and financial/economical models to develop and operate such multipurpose reservoirs. The SHARE concept was developed as a solution of these challenges. It is based on international case studies to find guidance on particular issues of multipurpose water reservoirs. By Emmanuel BRANCHE Version: Final ‑ April, 7th 2015 The author wish to thank in particular the people and organisations that participated in the discussions of the Steering Committee and those who provided comments on the draft main report: • EDF ‑ Electricité de France (Jean Comby) • ICOLD ‑ International Commission on Large Dams (Alessandro Palmieri) • IEA Hydro ‑ International Energy Agency Hydro (Niels Nielsen) • IHA ‑ International Hydropower Association (Richard Taylor

    18.57 Tehri Dam Project, India RECOGNIZING that the Himalayas are one of the world's zones of intense seismic activity owing to stresses which are constantly building up by the movement of the Indian Plate against the Asian Plate; CONSIDERING that such build-up of energy has been released with earthquakes of magnitude 8 or more on the Richter Scale, in three zones covering the North Western, Central and Eastern Himalayas, in the years 1905,1934 and 1950 respectively; CONSIDERING also that the proposed Tehri Dam is located near a major fault in the seismic gap where stresses have not been released for the past 200 years, thus greatly increasing the likelihood of an earth- quake of greater than magnitude 8 in the foreseeable future, near the area where the Tehri dam site is located; CONSIDERING that the Tehri Dam has been desig- ned to withstand an earthquake of only magnitude 7.2 on the Richter Scale; AWARE that the Environmental Appraisal Com- mittee of the Ministry of Environment, Government of India, had declined environmental clearance for the Tehri Dam on grounds of safety, environmental destruction of the ecologically rich Bhagirathi Valley, and dislocation of 80,000 villagers; GRAVELY CONCERNED that the top seismic experts of India, USA and other countries have expressed the opinion that the present design is unsafe as it does not provide for an earthquake of magnitude 8 or more; APPREHENDING that the Government of India is proceeding, despite the above risk, with the construc- tion of the Tehri dam; GRAVELY CONCERNED that a resultant

    National Workshop on UTTARAKHAND DISASTER 2013: LESSONS LEARNT Monday, August 19, 2013 PROCEEDINGS Organized by National Institute of Disaster Management (Ministry of Home Affairs, Government of India) 5B, I.P. Estate, Mahatma Gandhi Marg , New Delhi‐110002 www.nidm.gov.in Proceedings of the National Workshop on Uttarakhand Disaster 2013: Lessons Learnt BACKGROUND Uttarakhand, one of the hill states of Northern India, was severely hit by heavy rain induced flash floods and landslides in the 3rd week of June, 2013. This abnormally high amount of rainfall has been attributed to the fusion of Westerlies with the Indian monsoonal cloud system (Fig. 3). This has resulted into huge loss to lives and properties and specially disrupting the peak seasonal activities to Char Dham Pilgrimmage. The melting of Chorabari Glacier and eruption of the Mandakini River has led to floods near Kedarnath Shrine area, Rambara, Agostyamuni, Tilwara, Guptkashi in Rudraprayag district. There were torrential rainfall in Himachal Pradesh and Western Nepal, and in other nearby regions of Delhi, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh and some parts of Tibet. Pilgrimage centres in the region, including Gangotri, Yamunotri, Kedarnath and Badrinath, are visited by thousands of devotees, especially during May to September. Over a lakh people were stuck in various regions because of damaged roads, landslides and flash flood induced debris. People in other important locations such as the Valley of Flowers, Roopkund and the Sikh Pilgrimage Centre Hemkund were stranded for days together.
