Environmental Report 49 Mw Luat Hydro Power Project
ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT 49 MW LUAT HYDRO POWER PROJECT Submitted To: Environmental Protection Agency Azad Jammu & Kashmir Submitted By: Neelum Green Energy (Pvt.) Ltd. Office # 7, MB City Mall, I‐8 Markaz, Islamabad +92 51 4861790 Consultant: Nasir Absar Consulting (Pvt.) Ltd. Office # 1, Second Floor, VIP Square I‐8 Markaz, Islamabad +92 51 4861323 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1 INTRODUCTION The proposed 49 MW Luat Hydropower Project “the Project” is identified in the lower 6-7 km stretch of Chutiari nullah, near Luat village, District Neelum, in the Azad State of Jammu and Kashmir. Chutiari nullah is a right bank tributary of Neelum River in the tehsils Athmuqam, Neelum district with its confluence about 95 km north-west of Muzaffarabad city. The Project layout has been planned on the right bank of Chutiari nullah with diversion weir intake, connecting channel, sandtrap, low pressure headrace tunnel, surge shaft, pressure shaft, pressure tunnel, underground powerhouse and a free flow tailrace tunnel to discharge the outflows back into the Nullah. An access tunnel is provided for handling of plant and equipment transportation to the powerhouse, the access tunnel is just over the tailrace tunnel. This site was first identified by a French Firm (CFG) in 1986. During the preliminary site identification studies the estimated installed capacity of the Project was estimated to be 25 MW. In November 2008, Hydro Electric Board (HEB) of the Azad State of Jammu and Kashmir (AJ&K) signed a Consultancy Agreement with M/s Fida Hussain Chaudhary - FHC Consulting Engineers, Lahore, in association with M/s Scott Wilson Limited of United Kingdom and M/s Electra Consultants, Peshawar for preparation of feasibility study reports. -
In Neelum Valley, Azad Jammu and Kashmir
Pakistan J. Zool., vol. 44(1), pp. 233-239, 2012. Distribution, Population Status and Habitat Utilization of Common Otter (Lutra lutra) in Neelum Valley, Azad Jammu and Kashmir Muhammad Bashir Khan, Khawaja Basharat Ahmed, Muhammad Siddique Awan, Usman Ali, Riaz Aziz Minhas* and Shahid Ashraf Choudary Department of Zoology, University of Azad Jammu and Kashmir, Muzaffarabad Abstract.- Neelum Valley comprises of fascinating wildlife, yet it is not explored due to multiple factors including inaccessibility, no appropriate means of transportation and communication and cross border firing between Pakistan and Indian armed forces. Common otter (Lutra lutra) listed as near threatened by IUCN in the Red List of 2008, has been extinct in much of its range with many populations still thinning and is firmly protected by the Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) Wild Life Act. The present study aimed to find out the distribution, habitat utilization and population status of common otter in Neelum Valley. Study area was divided into zones and localities and eight months surveys of each locality were conducted from December, 2004 to July, 2005. The important vegetation of the area was Rumex histatus, Adhatoda zeyloanica, Cynoglossum lanceolatum, Salix sp, Pinus sp, Cedrus deodara and Celtis eriocarpa. Common otter was found to adapt to rocky area with cave type places, sands and pebbles. Average population was measured by the indirect method of sampling. The animal was distributed in all three zones and 22 localities apart from Nosada locality. A total population of 35 animals was estimated with the average population density of 2.29 animals/km2 in the study area. -

INTRODUCTION Pakistan is presently facing acute shortages of electricity while the Government of Pakistan (GoP) is targeting for substantial economic growth in the medium to long term. To combat the electricity shortage and to achieve high targets of growth all possible resources for power generation are to be used to sustain the economy. It is estimated that Pakistan would require around 2000-3000 MW annual addition for the next few years. The international geopolitical situation and unstable fuel oil and gas prices in the world have compelled Pakistan to look for additional resources for diversity and energy security of the country. Pakistan is a water-rich country and is endowed with hydropower potential of more than 60000 MW. -
