Uniqueness of Bhavanisagar Dam UNIQUENESS OF BHAVANISAGAR DAM :- The dam is considered to be among the biggest earthen dam in the country. It is also the second biggest earthen dam in the World ( First one in Russia ). The length of the earthen bund itself runs in to 8 Kms. from Zero Point. The Dam was constructed during post independent period from 1948 to 1955. The construction cost of the dam was 21.00 Crore. It is a Multi-Purpose Dam. It is used to store water for irrigation, generate electricity, supply drinking water, control flood and control the silt formation in the downstream river. Bhavanisagar Dam and Reservoir, also called Lower Bhavani Dam, is located on the Bhavani River between Mettupalayam and Sathyamangalam in Erode District, Tamil Nadu, South India. The Height of the Dam is 40 Mtrs. ( 120 Ft ) and the carrying capacity of the Dam is 32.8 TMC. The FRL ( Full Reservoir Level ) is 120 Ft. it forms the tail end of the long river chain on the eastern side of the Western Ghats in Nilgiris. Average discharge from the dam is 1000 Cu Secs. The Dam receives water through Southwest Monsoon from two main streams/ catchment areas from the Western Ghats. One stream is from Upper Bhavani, Avalanche, Emerald, Kundha, Gedhai, Pillur, Nellithurai and Lower Bhavani ( Bhavanisagar ). The other stream called as Western Catchment starts from Portimund, Parson’s Valley, Pykara, Glenmorgan, Chinkara, Maravakandy, Moyar, Thengumarahatta and Lower Bhavani ( Bhavanisagar ). Bhavani Sagar dam is constructed on Bhavani River, which is merely under the union of Moyar River. The dam is used to divert water to the Lower Bhavani Project Canal. The ayacut was thrown open to irrigation from 1952 onwards. The project commands an area of 80,000.00 Hectares @ 1,97,600.00 Acres i.e., around 2.00 Lakh Acres. The Dam houses two Hydel Power Stations one on the East Bank Canal and the other on the main Bhavani River. Each of the Units has 16 MW installed capacity. Thus, 32 MW of power is generated almost throughout the year. There is a garden in front of this dam, which makes it a good picnic spot in this area. .

The eco­ nomic prosperity of the southern states of Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu Kerala and Karnataka is closely intertwined with the water-supply and potentialities of these three rivers. Since historical times their. waters have been extensively utilised for agriculture, fisheries, irrigation and tllYigation purposes.

College, K Swamy, M Karthikeyan and D Boominathan Mannampandal, Mayiladuthurai, Tamil Nadu, India Abstract Habitat preference of Four-horned Antelope Tetracerus quadricornis was studied at Sathyamangalam M Karthikeyan Postgraduate and Research Wildlife sanctuary. A grid based approach was followed to find out the habitat preference. Due to shy Department of Zoology and nature and small size of the animal make sightings difficult, so indirect signs also taken into Wildlife Biology, A.V.C. College, consideration when assessing their preference of habitat. Both direct sightings and indirect signs Mannampandal, Mayiladuthurai, locations were plotted and prepared a distribution map. The majority of the records (~72%) were on Tamil Nadu, India hill/nulla slopes; however this may be due to the terrain being largely composed of such areas. Flat and open areas had only 28% of the records. The encounter rate for signs/sightings was 1.71/km in the open D Boominathan habitat and it was much lower (0.25/km) in the fairly dense forests. Four-horned Antelopes largely prefer WWF-India Bhavanisagar, open habitat and appear to avoid dense areas. Tamil Nadu, India Keywords: Four horned antelope, Sathyamangalam, distribution, southern India Introduction Four horned Antelope (Tetracerus quadricornis) is only member of this group with two pairs of horns of which front pair is always shorter than the back (Prater, 1971) [9].
