Springs occur where sloping ground and impermeable strata intersect with the ground water table. The water sources of such springs, in most cases are unconfined aquifers where the water flows under gravity. Spring water discharge fluctuations owe primarily due to rainfall pattern in the recharge area or more precisely stated, to variation in the amount of rainwater that is able to infiltrate the ground and recharge the ground water. Marked variation in the discharge following rainfall indicates rapid infiltration of rainwater and recharge of the groundwater in colluvial-related springs, and discharge curves show strongly periodic seasonal rhythm. Superimposed on these variations is a periodic (monthly) fluctuation resulting from occasional heavy rainfalls, generally in the rainy season.

    Summery record of the minutes of 35th Meeting of the Standing Committee on Power System Planning in Northern Region held on 3/11/2014 at Dehradun. List of participants is Annexed 1. Member (Power System), CEA welcomed the participants of 35 th Standing Committee Meeting (SCM) on Power System Planning of Northern Region (NR). He thanked PTCUL for arranging the meeting in such a short notice and for the excellent arrangement nice environment in. He stated that the agenda items for the meeting are small and so members should take this opportunity for a detailed fruitful discussion. 2. CMD PTCUL expressed his happiness and stated that PTCUL is privileged to host the 35 th SCM in Dehradun. He stated that the he would like to welcome the committee to hold more meeting in the picturesque state of Uttarakhand, which would enable the committee members to know the state and the problem it is facing. CMD PTCUL stated that Uttarakhand being a landlocked state deserve better dispensation from the member state and center. He stated that Uttarakhand with little help in terms of availability of gas for its generation project, stronger interconnection with the grid and commissioning of the Hydro projects in the state would not only be in a position to ensure 24x7 power supply to the consumers but would also be an engine towards reducing the power deficit in the region and nation as a whole. 3. Director (operation) PTCUL thanked CEA for considering the agenda of PTCUL in the meeting. He stated that the agenda was discussed in the 34 th SCM and was deferred for the want of further study and investigation.

Abstract In June 2013 multiple disaster involving flash flood and landslides struck many parts of Uttarakhand state. This caused massive devastation in the state on 16 and 17 June, 2013. In the present paper, attempt was made to analysis the landslide incidences and damages in Chamoli district. A total of 220 landslides were observed in the area. About 92% of slide occurred on northerly (48 percent) and southerly (43 percent) facing slopes. These may be subject to freeze-thaw and drier cycles. Heavy rainfall and low shear strength of the rocks have played a major role in facilitating these slides.

Cost-Benefit Analysis of Vishnugad-Pipalkoti Hydro-Electricity Project. International Journal of Economy, Energy and Environment. Vol. 6, No. 2, 2021, pp. 35-45. doi: 10.11648/j.ijeee.20210602.13 Received : March 24, 2021; Accepted : April 22, 2021; Published : April 30, 2021 Abstract: Hydroelectricity is often considered to be “clean” in view of less carbon emissions especially in comparison to thermal power. However, hydropower is intrusive in the natural environment and has many environmental costs that may outweigh the benefits from reduced carbon emissions. Hydroelectricity projects (HEPs) in India are required to submit a Cost- Benefit Analysis (CBA) statement in the approval processes. However, the monetary value of the environmental costs is not required to be calculated and not considered in the approval process. Thus, the projects are approved even if the costs are greater than the benefits. The projects are required to submit an “Environment Management Plan” (EMP) to mitigate the adverse environmental impacts. However, the proposals made in the EMP are inadequate to mitigate the impacts and are more cosmetic than real. The calculation of monetary value of environmental impacts is resource intensive. This paper suggests that proxy values can be used to arrive at an estimate.
