Executive Summary Saryu/Ghaghra, also called Karnali is a perennial trans-boundary river originating on the Tibetan Plateau near Lake Manasarovar. It is the largest tributary of the Ganges by volume and the second longest tributary of the Ganges by length after Yamuna. Lower Ghaghra is also known as Saryu River. District Ayodhya is situated on its right bank. The Saryu river of India forms at the confluence of the Karnali (or Ghaghara) and Mahakali (or Sharda) in Bahraich District at 27°40′27″N 81°16′39″E. It initially flows into south western direction till it reaches Ramnagar, where it takes a turn towards the west and flows towards the towns of Faizabad and Ayodhya. It continues flowing westwards and passes through the towns of Tanda and Barhalganj before receiving the Rapti from its left at 26°16′34.05″N 83°37′49.51″E. It meets River Ganga near the town of Chhapra at 25°44′36″N, 84°40′01″E. Ghaghara River traverses through districts Bahraich, Sitapur, Gonda, Ayodhya, Ambedkar nagar and Balia in Uttar Pradesh. Hon'ble National Green Tribunal vide its order dated 20th September 2018 instructed UPPCB to prepare River Saryu Action Plans to restore the quality of priority -V polluted stretch of River Saryu to be fit for at least bathing purposes within 06 months from the date of action plan gets approved. The river water quality analysis reveals that the average Dissolved Oxygen (D.O.) was found 7.5 and Biochemical Oxygen Demand (B.O.D.) in the range of 2.3 mg/l to 4.0 mg/l in the year 2016-18 (B.O.D. is minimum at- upstream Guptar Ghat, Ayodhya & maximum at- downstream Shamshan Ghat Ayodhya), which comes under category D as per water quality standards IS 2296-1982, based on last 3 years monitoring data of river water quality in the identified polluted stretch of River Saryu, from Ayodhya to Iltifatganj (District Ambedkar Nagar). The river receives considerable amounts of wastewater every day from the sewage system flow from different Nagar Nigam/Municipal Area of Ayodhya which leads to deterioration of its water quality. 1 Pollution Inventory: In the polluted stretch of River Saryu, total discharge of 24.64 MLD is estimated in the form of sewage through 21 sewage drains. As per desk inventory, about 24.64 MLD of sewage and 7.9 MLD of industrial effluent are currently being discharged into the river Saryu through various drains in Ayodhya. 02 industries directly discharge their treated Industrial effluent in River Saryu polluted stretch. The treatment of sewage is a major concern as out of total 24.64 MLD sewage discharge, only 6.0 MLD of sewage is treated. Similarly approximately 1.5 MLD sewage generated from Nagar Panchayat Iltifatganj in district Ambedkar Nagar is also discharge untreated in polluted stretch of river Saryu. Sewage Treatment: There are 03 towns situated in the catchment area of Polluted Stretch of River Saryu. Estimated Sewage Generation on the projected population in year 2030 is 34.09 MLD. The installed capacity of existing STPs is 12 MLD and 35 MLD capacity STPs are proposed to be installed in Ayodhya but there is a 1.91 MLD gap in the treatment of Sewage Generated at Iltifatganj, and a STPs should be installed at Ambedkar Nagar. Municipal Solid Waste: In 02 Towns located in the catchment area of River Saryu from Ayodhya to Iltifatganj, Ambedkar Nagar, Total 115 TPD Solid Waste in Ayodhya and 6 TPD in Iltifatganj is generated. Although the ULBs has been practicing door to door collection of MSW, however, there has been lack of processing facility and it is required that ULBs establish Municipal Solid Waste Treatment & Disposal Facility as early as possible for maintaining the water quality of the river stretch under consideration. Bio-Medical Waste: 185 Health Care Facilities generate 689 Kg/Day of Bio-Medical Waste in Ayodhya. All the Health Care Facilities have valid agreements with Common Bio-Medical Waste Treatment Facilitiy situated in Lucknow for collection, transportation and disposal of Bio-Medical Waste. The 2 segregation of Bio-Medical Waste and disposal in the CBWTFs as per the provisions of Bio-Medical Waste Management Rules, 2016 is a major area of concern. The mixing of Bio-Medical Waste with Municipal Solid Waste is also observed which also needs to be addressed. Hazardous Waste: The total hazardous waste generation in the catchment area of the stretch from 05 industrial units is 730.77 Ton/Annum which is collected, treated and disposed by 02 Common Facilities located near Kanpur Dehat. E-Waste: In the State, a total 43 Common E- Waste Disposal Facility is operational. The cumulative capacity of these plants is 2,64,552 TPA and 10,000 Pieces/Annum. The quantum of E-Waste generated in the State is approximately 86,000 TPA. Hence there is no gap in the generation and treatment infrastructure for safe E-Waste handling as per the provisions of E-Waste Rules, 2016. Monitoring of Pollution Sources Drains: Monitoring of drains discharging into the polluted stretch of river Saryu done regularly. The sampling points are selected near the confluence of the drains with the Saryu River. Care has been taken that there is no backwater effect of the river at the sampling point and no source of pollution joins the drain after the sampling point. River: The priority-V polluted stretch of River Saryu will be monitored at 03 places so as to ascertain adverse effect of pollution by various sources in the river. Industries All the water polluting industries will be monitored regularly by 03 agencies namely UPPCB, District Ganga Committee/Zila Paryavaran Samiti and Third Party Institutions of repute. Drive for identification and closure of illegal industries operating in non-conforming areas shall also be 3 carried out by District Ganga Committees/Zila Paryavaran Samitis with appropriate Magisterial and Police support Establishment of Saryu Pollution Control Room: A Control Room for monitoring and centralized reporting of various pollution sources shall be established in Lucknow with appropriate infrastructure and human resource. This control room will be under overall supervision of Commissioner, Lucknow and will be run by UP Pollution Control Board with the help of District Ganga Committees/Zila Paryavaran Samitis. Polluted River Stretch Rejuvenation Action Plan: Some short and long term Action points were identified based on their urgency and time period required for their completion. Some important Action points are given below: Sewage Management Short Term: Estimation of total sewage generation from City/Towns where sewage treatment facility does not exist and preparation of DPR for treatment of sewage. Measurement of flow & load of all the drains contributing pollution load in River Saryu. Installation of Bar-meshes in the drains & regular cleaning & disposal of Solid Waste from them. Untapped drains to be provided with modular treatment facilities/ In-Situ bio-remediation or Phytorid-SWAB (CSIR-NEERI) based treatment. Completion and commissioning of under construction STPs Long Term: Lying of Sewerage Network & Connection of households to the sewer line in order to utilize the installed capacity of existing STPs. Establishment of Sewage Treatment Plants of adequate capacity. Tapping & diversion of the drains having high sewage load to STPs to be constructed on I&D model. 4 Infrastructure Development in Irrigation/Horticulture/ Sprinkling/Industries. Ensuring use of treated water. Industrial waste Management Short Term Action Point: Re-inventorisation of Water Polluting Industries in the catchment area of the drains and their status with respect to consent, installation of ETP, adequacy of ETP and final discharge point. Monitoring of water polluting industries and ensuring closure of industries which are operating without consent or non-compliant. Closure and legal action against the illegal water polluting industries operating in non-confirming /residential areas.

    The Conservation Action Plan the Ganges River Dolphin

    THE CONSERVATION ACTION PLAN FOR THE GANGES RIVER DOLPHIN 2010-2020 National Ganga River Basin Authority Ministry of Environment & Forests Government of India Prepared by R. K. Sinha, S. Behera and B. C. Choudhary 2 MINISTER’S FOREWORD I am pleased to introduce the Conservation Action Plan for the Ganges river dolphin (Platanista gangetica gangetica) in the Ganga river basin. The Gangetic Dolphin is one of the last three surviving river dolphin species and we have declared it India's National Aquatic Animal. Its conservation is crucial to the welfare of the Ganga river ecosystem. Just as the Tiger represents the health of the forest and the Snow Leopard represents the health of the mountainous regions, the presence of the Dolphin in a river system signals its good health and biodiversity. This Plan has several important features that will ensure the existence of healthy populations of the Gangetic dolphin in the Ganga river system. First, this action plan proposes a set of detailed surveys to assess the population of the dolphin and the threats it faces. Second, immediate actions for dolphin conservation, such as the creation of protected areas and the restoration of degraded ecosystems, are detailed. Third, community involvement and the mitigation of human-dolphin conflict are proposed as methods that will ensure the long-term survival of the dolphin in the rivers of India. This Action Plan will aid in their conservation and reduce the threats that the Ganges river dolphin faces today. Finally, I would like to thank Dr. R. K. Sinha , Dr. S. K. Behera and Dr.

    Editors’ Note Teachers in charge: Mrs. Jyotsna Khanna Mrs. Jhimli Mitra Mrs. Aruna Madhusudan Front cover credits: Sakshi Dey Back cover credits: Sanjana Unni Divya Rangarajan Aakarsh Kankaria Our city went from the Chennai floods to the Chennai drought in two years. The contradiction is appalling and there is no one to blame but ourselves. We have been taking this resource for granted for far too long and its implications are now upon us. Being residents of Chennai, we felt the need to spread awareness on this issue. That was the primary reason for choosing this theme-Where’s My Water? People seem to remember this problem for one week but forget it in the next. We realized that we needed to communicate the message in a different manner. Thereby, we decided to talk about the benefits of water, reminding everyone of the abundant resources that water provides us with and why we need to conserve it. In this edition of Newsish, we have addressed the various facets of water including movies, wars, sunken ships and cities, lost treasures, wonders, machines, sports, and religious aspects. We would like to thank Omana Ma’am and all the teachers involved for giving us the opportunity to make this an E-Magazine. The idea behind opting for an online magazine was to put an end to the large amount of paper wastage we were incurring by publishing a printed edition.
