TACR: India: Preparing the Bihar Urban Development Project Technical Assistance Consultant’s Report Project Number: 7106 June 2011 India: Preparing the Bihar Urban Development Project—Environmental Impact Assessment for Bhagalpur Water Supply (Tranche 1) Prepared by: GHK Consulting Limited, UKG, in association with STUP Consultants P. Ltd., IND, and Castalia Strategic Advisors, USA For Urban Development and Housing Department, Government of Bihar This consultant’s report does not necessarily reflect the views of ADB or the Government concerned, and ADB and the Government cannot be held liable for its contents. (For project preparatory technical assistance: All the views expressed herein may not be incorporated into the proposed project’s design. Bihar Urban Development Investment Program (BUDIP) Appendix 2 to Subproject Appraisal Report ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT Bhagalpur Water Supply (Tranche 1) FINAL July 2011 Urban Development & Housing Department GHK, UK Government of Bihar in association with Castalia STUP Consultants Asian Development Bank (ADB) Bihar Urban Development Investment Program DISCLAIMER The contents of the reports are the recommendation of the consultants engaged under the project preparatory technical assistance (PPTA) by the Asian Development Bank (ADB). ADB missions subsequent to the PPTA will conduct due diligence and may modify the scope, implementation arrangements, safeguard measures and analysis. Therefore, the subsequent ADB‟s official documents (such as the legal documents, the framework financing agreement, the report and recommendations of the president, the facility administration manual, the aide memoirs) will supersede the contents of the reports, in case there are conflicts. EIA: Bhagalpur Water Supply (Tranche 1) Page i Bihar Urban Development Investment Program Acknowledgements “Any city however small, is in fact divided into two, one the city of the poor, the other of the rich. These are at war with one another.” Plato (BC 427-BC 347) During the tenure of this assignment, help co-operation and assistance have been obtained from a large number of individuals, government departments, local bodies, para-statal agencies, social workers, representatives of NGOs and CBOs. They have provided their valuable time and suggestions to members of the PPTA team to assist in this study. It is rather difficult to thank them individually. We express our sincere thanks to all those people collectively. Their support, encouragement and insights into the social, economic, environmental and infrastructure problems of the study area and the sector as a whole have provided an essential input into the proposals in the report. More often than not, these suggestions triggered useful discussions in shaping various projects in project towns of Bhagalpur, Darbhanga, Gaya and Muzzaffarpur for infrastructure improvement. In addition to the obviously critical technical support by the Asian Development Bank, preparation of this Report was made possible through the enthusiastic support and guidance of Shri Girish Shankar, Principal Secretary (up to Febrary 2011) and Shri D K Shukla, Special Secretary of the Urban Development and Housing Department, Government of Bihar and the Mayors, Municipal Commissioners and their enthusiastic staff in the preparation of this PPTA report. At the very pragmatic level, Mr. Hiroyuki Ikemoto, the ADB Urban Development Economist, continues the challenge of supporting the consulting team and their enormous requests. Our thanks are also due to Shri Shashi Shekhar Sharma who guided the completion of this final report upon taking over as Principal Secretary from February 2011. Unknown to them, but the daily observation of all residents, their situations and their needs contributes the most to the exercise, and will be thanked by successfully contributing this project's results to their future.

Flood Management Improvement Support Centre (FMISC) has been set up under the aegis of Water Resources Department with the objective of improving the flood management practices in the State by introducing the use of latest modern techniques like Remote Sensing, Geographic Information System (GIS) and modeling. The report gives an account of 2012 floods in detail and deliberates the usefulness of modern technological tools like GIS and Remote Sensing in Flood Management. Like every year, FMISC, functioned in an emergency mode from 15 June to 15 October 2012 to monitor the rainfall and consequential flood events in the catchment of all the rivers coming in the purview of its focus area comprising of 24 districts. As usual, information and data regarding observed rain-fall, 3 day rain-fall forecast, river gauge levels, trend forecast of CWC and WRD gauge sites within highly flood prone districts were collected and posted in FMIS website and also sent to National Remote Sensing Centre, Hyderabad which in turn, delivered near real time satellite imageries and inundation layers.
