Mahi, Sabarmati & other West Flowing 385 Glossary of Terms 387 ix x Chapter 1 Introduction 1.0 The Annual precipitation including snowfall is the main source of water in India and is estimated to be of the order of 4000 cu km. The total water resource potential of the country, which occurs as natural run off in the rivers is estimated at 1869 cu km considering both surface and groundwater into account. Due to various constraints of topography, uneven distribution of resource over space and time, it has been estimated that only about 1123 cu km be put to beneficial use – out of which only 690 cu km is surface water. However, 370 cu km of estimated utilizable surface water comes from the non-classified river basins. 1.1 As per the distribution of water resources potential in the country, the national per capita annual availability of water is 1731 cu m (estimated as on 1st March 2004). The average availability in Brahmaputra and Barak basin is as high as 14057 cu m while it is as low as 308 cu m in Sabarmati basin in 2000. Brahmaputra and Barak basin with 7.6 % of geographical area and 5.2 % of population of all the basins in the country has 31 % of the annual water resources. Per capita annual availability for rest of the country excluding Brahmaputra and Barak basin works out to about 1345 cu m. An availability of less than 1000 cu m per capita is considered by international agencies as scarcity condition.

N. Bramha *, U. C. Panda , P. Rath , P. K. Mohanty and K. K. Satpathy 1Environmental and Industrial Safety Section, IGCAR, Government of India, Kalpakkam-603102, India. 2Department of Marine Sciences, Berhampur University, Berhampur-760 007, India. 3Department of Chemistry, Kalinga Institute of Industrial Technology (KIIT University), Bhubaneswar-751 024, India. 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.
