Alleviation of major impediments such as inadequate aquaculture inputs, infrastructure facilities and better scientific interventions alongwith existing natural resource management will definitely lead to the growth and development of fisheries and aquaculture in the made by ICAR-DCFR to formulate and prioritize research activities which need to be strategically implemented for sustainable management and enhancing coldwater fishery productivity and profitability. On the special occasion of the National Seminar being organized at ICAR-DCFR, Bhimtal during 22-24 September, 2017, the ICAR-DCFR has taken up the effort to bring out an 'Abstract Book' in colaboration with Coldwater Fisheries Society of India, Bhimtal and Zoological Survey of India, Bodh Gaya covering the aspects of resource assessment and management; taxonomy and ichthyology; aquaculture and nutrition; aquatic biodiversity, water management and conservation; fish physiology and biochemistry; fish health management; fish genetics and biotechnology; post harvest technology and value addition; inter disciplinary approaches and policy framework. It is hoped that the outcome of the National Seminar will be highly useful to the scientists, teachers, students, policy makers and other stakeholders in bringing up qualitative and quantitative improvement in coldwater fisheries sector. I take the opportunity to thank all benevolent contributors, participants and knowledge experts to provide a multidimensional perspective of the various developments taking place in the coldwater fisheries sector through the National Seminar. The enthusiastic support received from all of my colleagues is truly magnificent to bring out this publication in time with zeal. I wish the National Seminar a great success. 15 September, 2017 Dr. A.K.

    Report Code: 001_GBP_IIT_GEN_DAT_01_Ver 1_Dec 2010 River Ganga at a Glance: Identification of Issues and Priority Actions for Restoration Report Code: 001_GBP_IIT_GEN_DAT_01_Ver 1_Dec 2010 Preface In exercise of the powers conferred by sub‐sections (1) and (3) of Section 3 of the Environment (Protection) Act, 1986 (29 of 1986), the Central Government has constituted National Ganga River Basin Authority (NGRBA) as a planning, financing, monitoring and coordinating authority for strengthening the collective efforts of the Central and State Government for effective abatement of pollution and conservation of the river Ganga. One of the important functions of the NGRBA is to prepare and implement a Ganga River Basin: Environment Management Plan (GRB EMP). A Consortium of 7 Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) has been given the responsibility of preparing Ganga River Basin: Environment Management Plan (GRB EMP) by the Ministry of Environment and Forests (MoEF), GOI, New Delhi. Memorandum of Agreement (MoA) has been signed between 7 IITs (Bombay, Delhi, Guwahati, Kanpur, Kharagpur, Madras and Roorkee) and MoEF for this purpose on July 6, 2010. This report is one of the many reports prepared by IITs to describe the strategy, information, methodology, analysis and suggestions and recommendations in developing Ganga River Basin: Environment Management Plan (GRB EMP). The overall Frame Work for documentation of GRB EMP and Indexing of Reports is presented on the inside cover page. There are two aspects to the development of GRB EMP. Dedicated people spent hours discussing concerns, issues and potential solutions to problems. This dedication leads to the preparation of reports that hope to articulate the outcome of the dialog in a way that is useful.

  • Situation Report ‐ 2
    SITUATION REPORT ‐ 2 North India Floods – 2010 (Uttarakhand, Haryana, Delhi, UP, Bihar) 21st Sept 2010, 1300h A. KEY HIGHLIGHTS: The flood situation on monday continued to remain grim in many parts of North India: Uttarakhand, Haryana, Delhi, Uttar Pradesh and Bihar. Uttrakhand: • Over 76 people dead and thousands homeless. • Major rivers continue to swell. • The Ganga in Haridwar flowing above the danger level and breached its embankment at Bishanpur Kundi village inundating areas like Luxor, Rayasi and Gangadaspur. • Almora, Chamauli, Uttarkashi and Nainital are worst hit districts • In Tehri, the reservoir level reached 831.05 meter and heavy discharge is being made from the hydel project. A high alert has been issued in low‐lying areas in Tehri. • The construction work of 400 MW Koteshwar dam has been stopped due to rise in the water level of Bhagirathi river. • Chief Minister Ramesh Pokhariyal Nishank made an aerial survey of flood and disaster‐affected areas in the state. Prime Minister, Dr. Manmohan Singh, sanctioned an ex‐gratia amount of Rs. one lakh to the next of kin of each of the deceased and Rs. fifty thousand to those seriously injured in the floods from the Prime Minister’s National Relief Fund. • In the wake of the worsening flood situation, the Railways have cancelled some trains bound for Dehradun and Haridwar while a few others were diverted or short terminated at various stations.The steps were taken after landslides were reported between Haridwar‐Motichur sections and breaches between Raisi‐Balawali on Moradabad Division, said a Northern Railway spokesperson. • NDRF have been deployed for recue operations.

We would not have reached this stage without the inputs and support of several individuals and institutions that have helped us in our endeavour. Dr. Tom Le Quesne at WWF-UK provided us the initial conceptual framework, taught us about E-Flows and got us started on the journey. We also express our gratitude to Mr. Ravindra Kumar from SWaRA, Government of Uttar Pradesh, for being a constant source of encouragement and for his valuable contribution to this work. We would like to thank Mr. Paritosh Tyagi, Former Chairman of Central Pollution Control Board, who has been associated with the Living Ganga Programme since its inception and shared his rich knowledge on the subject, and Dr. Savita Patwardhan from Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology, Pune for providing us with much needed climate data. Key partners who have been part of this study, and without whom it would not have been possible to complete this work are Dr. Ravi Chopra and Ms. Chicu Lokgariwar, People’s Science Institute, Dehradun; Prof Vinod Tare, Prof. Rajiv Sinha and Dr. Murali Prasad, IIT Kanpur; Dr. Vikrant Jain, Delhi University; Prof. Prakash Nautiyal, Garhwal University; Prof. AK Gosain, IIT Delhi; and Dr. Sandhya Rao, INRM.

  • Fp-15-Harish Bahuguna
    Stability of cut slopes on either abutment of Koteshwar dam, Uttarakhand Bahuguna, Harish Head, Environment and Geology Cell UJVNL, Dehradun, India Abstract The Koteshwar dam site located in Tehri Garhwal district of Uttarakhand and it is approximately 22 Km downstream of the famous Tehri dam. The project was commissioned in 2011 and presently it is generating 400MW of hydropower. Components of the project consists of a 97.50m high concrete gravity dam consisting of 14 blocks, a 575m long and 8m diameter diversion tunnel on the left bank having a design discharge of 670 Cumecs, four vertical penstock shafts, four lower horizontal penstocks, a surface powerhouse, a main access tunnel and a stilling basin at the toe of the dam. The project area lies within the Main Himalayan Belt (MHB), in the midlands of Lesser Himalaya which is bounded in the north by a regional tectonic discontinuity i.e. main Central Thrust (MCT) and in the south by another tectonic discontinuity i.e. Main Boundary Thrust (MBT). The project site is located in Zone IV of the Seismic Zoning Map of India wherein seismic shaking may result in damage reaching intensity rating of VIII on MM scale. The project area exposes an uninterrupted sequence of folded meta-sedimentary rocks of Chandpur phyllites (Pt 3 Proterozoic-III) which have variable proportions of argillaceous and arenaceous constituents.
