Economic as well as recreational activities of the city Bhopal are dependent on the water availability in the upper Bhopal Lake. This receives water as surface runoff only during monsoon period of each and every year. The upper lake has a catchment area of 375.55km2. The Land use Pattern of about 80% of the catchment is an agricultural area. Whereas 5% is of the forest and rest comes in urban area. Since the inset of monsoon in the catchment area is by 15th June in every year. The agricultural area starts contributing by the end of august. Whereas the lake start receiving surface runoff right from the beginning of monsoon season. Bhojtal Basin has a good surface hydro environment potential to reduce the water scarcity problem of the district.

This article deals with planktonic distribution of Bhoj Wetland, Bhopal, India . Bhoj Wetland comprises of two lakes i.e. Upper and Lower lakes of Bhopal. The Upper lake is shallow, highly stratified and oligotrophic lake while Lower lake is eutrophic lake. Samples were collected from Upper lake at two sampling stations and in Lower lakes from three sampling stations with their reference stations. The work was carried out for a period of two year (i.e. 2005-2006) in these contrasting lakes @ JASEM Biological evolution (Darwinian) produced the world sanitary sewer systems can lead to the eutrophication in which humankind began; a combination of of the receiving water bodies (Stevens, 2003).

Environment Clearance Ref: 1. Letter No J-13012/16/2017-IA.II (T) Respected Sir, We thank you for your support and cooperation so far for Environment Clearance for Bhopal project. Please find our response as follows: Point 5i – Quantity of unsegregated MSW and waste for feeding to the boiler and characteristics of MSW: We wish to confirm that the proposed Waste to Energy power plant is designed to fire processed waste and not unsegregated waste. The plant is designed with an installed capacity to fire 1050TPD of processed waste of 1650 kcal/kg Net Calorific Value (NCV) to produce 21MW of gross electric power by firing processed waste. Since, it’s difficult to provide a single boiler capable of firing 1050TPD of processed waste, we shall be providing two lines/numbers of boilers with an installed capacity of 750TPD (15MW) and 300TPD (6MW). The steam from both the boilers shall be combined together and same shall be fed to a common 21MW steam turbine. Generator also shall be of 21MW capacity. Please see details of waste projection from Bhopal city and adjoining cluster areas as given by Bhopal Corporation in the Project Information document (PIM), in the table attached below.

The freshwater bodies around the world are becoming polluted due to sewage, agricultural effluent, domestic and industrial waste. The water body selected for this study is Upper Lake of Bhopal, the state capital of Madhya Pradesh, India. The upper lake is one of the important sources of potable water supply for the Bhopal city. The lake receives a large amount of domestic wastes, sewage, agricultural and industrial effluents, hence it is grossly polluted. It has a floating fountain type of aeration unit, which is very useful in improving the lake’s water quality by aerating the water at varying depths. The authors examined physicochemical parameters like pH, dissolved oxygen, biochemical oxygen demand, and chemical oxygen demand to ascertain the effectiveness of the aeration unit. Introduction Water resources in India have reached a point of crisis due to unplanned urbanization and industrialization (Singh, Pathak, & Singh , 2002). Urban water bodies receiving external pressure from human settlements adversely affect nearby aquatic ecosystems.

  • Habitat Characterization of Littoral Zone of Upper Lake, Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh
    GSJ: Volume 7, Issue 5, May 2019 ISSN 2320-9186 194 Habitat Characterization of Littoral zone of Upper Lake, Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh Sweta Priyam Department of Environmental Science, Barkatullah University, Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh. Abstract Water management is a critical issue for the survival of all organisms residing on earth. In this study, Bhopal, also famous as city of lakes, has been taken as it has number of lakes fulfilling daily needs of the city. Upper lake and lower lake, together forms Bhoj wetland and is a Ramser site and shahpura lake are three important lakes of the city serving multipurpose need of the city of drinking, agriculture etc. Biotic and abiotic interaction in aquatic and terrestrial area determines its abundance and health of the area. If any one factors gets disturbed then the whole cycle of system gets disturbed and risk the rate of survival. Therefore, it is important for each factor to be in control for sustainable development. Likewise, aquatic organisms serves important role in deciding the health of the lakes. Presence and absence of certain organisms can be indictor of pollution or pollution free environment. In the littoral zone of the lakes, habitat of the samples was surveyed by observing the flora of the area and categorizing in submerged, floating and emerged. Water parameters like temperature, dissolved oxygen, biological oxygen demand, alkalinity, total dissolved solids, total hardness and electrical conductivity were determined and macro benthic invertebrates were identified in the area. To determine the relation, correlation coefficient was determined between the two factors, macro benthic invertebrates and 11 parameters of water.

  • Analysis of Lower Lake Water in Bhopal Region of Madhya Pradesh, India
    International Journal of Lakes and Rivers. ISSN 0973-4570 Volume 13, Number 1 (2020), pp. 17-25 © Research India Publications http://www.ripublication.com/ijlr.htm Analysis of Lower Lake Water in Bhopal Region of Madhya Pradesh, India 1Salahuddin and 2Intazar Husain 1,2PDM University, Bahadurgarh, Haryana, India. Emails: [email protected], [email protected] Abstract Lower Lake Water samples were collected from fifteen (03) locations during premonsoon, monsoon and post monsoon season. The physico-chemical parameters such as Total Alkalinity, Total Hardness, Chloride, Sulphate, Nitrate, total suspended solid, Total dissolved substance, Fluoride, Dissolved oxygen, Biological Oxigen Demand and Chemical Oxigen Demand were analyzed to know the present status of the lakewater quality. After statistical analysis it was cleared that the positive as well as negative co-relationship occurred between the attributes. Keywords: lower lake, correlation, upper lake. 2010 MSC NO: 62J10, 62H86, 62P12. INTRODUCTION: Water is one of the most common and necessary resource on earth. Without water there would be no life on earth. Water is the source of all biological lives and their sustenance too. Water quality has become a major global concern due to increasing human developmental activities. Correlation Matrix: A correlation matrix is a table showing correlation coefficients between variables. Each cell in the table shows the correlation between two variables. A correlation matrix is used to summarize data, as an input into a more advanced analysis, and as a diagnostic for advanced analyses. Study Area The Lower Lake is located to the east of the Upper Lake. An earthen dam separates the two lakes.

  • Executive Summary Project Chronology: the Application For
    Executive Summary Project Chronology: The application for grant of environment clearance was submitted to MPSEAC on 29/12/2014. Project was appraised in 172th, & 182nd SEAC meeting dtd. 22 Feb 2015, 28.03.2015 &, respectively. During appraisal it was admitted by project proponent that construction work at the site has already been initiated without securing the prior Environment Clearance from MPSEIAA. After deliberations, committee decided to visit the project site for physical verification of construction status. Two members subcommittee visited the site on 15 & 16 April 2015 and submitted the report to SEAC along with a response for the queries raised during site visit in the form of affidavit. Case was appraised again in 255th& 277th meeting dtd 02.01.2016 & 31/05/2016 respectively. During deliberations over inspection report, committee observed that PP has shown positive intent for compliance of environmental norms. The committee found compliances satisfactory and recommended the project to SEIAA for grant of EC subject to the special conditions. At MPSEIAA the case was kept in abeyance in absence of clear cut directions from MoEF & CC for violation cases. Further the case was delisted in the light of recent notification issued by MoEF & CC dtd 14.03.2017, which provides the guidelines to deal with violation cases at EAC, MoEF & CC, New Delhi. Taking reference from the above said notification dtd 14.03.2017; we have submitted the application under violation category for the grant of Environment Clearance at EAC, MoEF & CC.
