    rought anage ent In Indian rid Zone Dignataries at th e dms. Drought Management ill ~ Indian Arid Zone ~ Editors Pratap Narain D. C. Joshi s. Kathju A. Kar Central Arid Zone Research Institute Jodhpur .. 342 003 October, 2002. Published by: Arid Agro-Ecosystem Director National Agriculture Technology Project, Central Arid Zone Research Institute Jodhpur-342003 Support: Bhupesh Vaid and Rishi Kala Printed at: Indian Tourism Publications, 743, Nehru Park, Jodhpur 342003 Foreword Drought is a recurring feature in aridregiol1 ofIndia. The drought of the year 2002 is unique and severest drought of the country in the sense that all the scientific and traditional predictions failed miserably. The region received only < 30 % of the mean annual rainfall in one or two spells of 10-20 rom each. This was insufficient for sowing of the kharif crops. Regeneration of grasses and has resulted in acute shortage of drinking water for human and livestock. Migration of livestock has started to the adjoining states, but the problem is compounded by insufficient or inordinate delayed rains in neighboring states. A contingency planning for kharifas well as for rabi crops was immediately rerquired particularly for arid regIOn. Since its inception, CAZRI has been engaged in developing technologies for drought proofing in the arid region. Techniques for wind erosion control, in situ moisture conservation, integrated nutrient and pest management, fanning systems involving agro~ forestry, agro-horticulture and silvi-pastoral have been evolved. Drought~tolerant genotypes of crops and perennial species have also been identified. The NATP programmes under Arid Agro-ecosystem is a forward step to strengthen the drought proofing of the arid region In order to consider suitable Sh011, medium and long-term strategies to combat droughts in the region, a brainstorming session on "Drought management: Contingency plaJll1ing" was organised by CAZRI on August, 20 and 21,2002.

  • Chapter-1 Introduction
    CHAPTER-1 INTRODUCTION 1.0 Background Lakhwar Project is a part of multipurpose scheme primarily a peaking power station on river Yamuna in the district of Dehradun in Uttarakhand. The scheme envisages construction of 204m high concrete dam on river Yamuna near Lohari village. The Multipurpose scheme also envisages construction of Vyasi HEP (Hathiari power station) downstream of Lakhwar HEP. The scheme also includes construction of a barrage at Katapathar about 3 Km downstream of Hathiari powerhouse station (Vyasi HEP) on river Yamuna. The inflow and stored water in Lakhwar and Vyasi reservoir after generation of power at Lakhwar underground power house and Hathiari power house will be balanced at Katapathar barrage for downstream use. As a result of regulated flow from the Katapathar barrage, it is also assessed that about 75 MU of additional energy would be generated from the existing downstream projects of Uttarakhand state such as Dhakrani, Dhalipur, Kulhal and Khara. The live storage of Lakhwar reservoir is estimated to be 330.66 MCum. The project was originally approved by planning commission with estimated cost of Rs. 140.97 crores in Jan, 1976 as multipurpose scheme. Environmental clearance was accorded to the project by MOE&F in Feb, 1987. The initial work of Lakhwar Vyasi Project was started in 1979 and three major contracts for construction of main civil works of the project were signed in July, 1987. Some construction works such as abutment stripping for Lakhwar dam, construction of 2 nos. diversion tunnels, part excavation of underground powerhouse, part excavation of tail race tunnel etc at Lakhwar site and abutment stripping for Vyasi dam, excavation of head race tunnel, diversion channel, part excavation of 1-1 surge shaft, pressure shaft, surface powerhouse, etc at Vyasi/ Hathiari site have been completed.
