MANAGEMENT PLAN OF PRIVATE FOREST AREAS CLOSED UNDER SECTION 4 & 5 OF PUNJAB LAND PRESERVATION ACT-1900

(2017-2018 TO 2026-2027) S. A. S. NAGAR FOREST DIVISION

Prepared By:

Guramanpreet Singh, PFS Divisional Forest Officer, S.A.S. Nagar Forest Division, S.A.S.Nagar.

Preface

This management plan is written for the area closed under section 4 and 5 of PLPA 1900 covered under S.A.S.Nagar Forest Division.

In the extreme north- eastern part of the state running from North West to south east along the Himachal Pradesh border, is the hill tract of Punjab. It is called the Shivalik Hills. It extends between Ravi in the north and river Ghagghar in the south and lies between Latitude 30º 34’ to 32º 33’ N and longitude 74º 50’ to 76º 52’ E. In between Ravi and Ghagghar rivers the continuity of the Shivalik is broken by river Beas and river Satluj. The Shivaliks have a geographical spread of 9448.97 Km2 covering 2.6% of the total area of the state. It is 280 km long with width ranging from 5 km to 12 km in various parts. The tract spreads over the eastern parts of the districts of Pathankot, Hoshiarpur, Nawanshahr, Ropar and SAS Nagar.

The term Shivalik was first coined by Cautley (1832). It has been spelled in literature in five different ways. These are: Sivalik (Falconer and Cautley, 1835, Medlicott, 1864); Sewalik (Caughtey, 1832, Murchison 1868); Siwalik (Lydekker 1876a, Pilgrim, 1910); Shivalik (Sahni and Khan, 1961) and Shiwalik (Chopra, 1974). According to Hindu mythology, the Shivaliks derive their name from the tresses of Lord Shiva. The term was originally used for the sedimentary sequences exposed between rivers Ganga and Yamuna near Haridwar (Uttrakhand). It was further applied to the middle Miocene to early Pleistocene foredeep sediments extending all along the south western foot of the Himalayas from Indus river (Pakistan) on the North west to the Brahmaputra on the North east. The historical record of the sedimentation preserved in the Shivalik is intimately connected with the uplits, foldings, faulting and erosion associated with collision of Indian Sub-continent plate and the Asian plate.

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 2

The Shivaliks of North West state (Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, Jammu and Kashmir, Punjab and Uttar Pardesh) present a highly dissected topography created by ephemeral streams of various genetic types. Weathering and denudation have produced a variety of erosional land from features such as rills, gullies, scraps and variously shaped ridges and amphitheatrical basins. The drainage channels carry huge amount of detritus and bed load creating problems of siltation of reservoirs, deposition of sand on agricultural field and disrupting transport and communication. The Shivalik hills are characterized by tropical dry deciduous forests with abundance of thorny species. Agriculture still continues to be primarily of subsistence nature in the entire range due to lack of irrigation facilities.

The shivalik have been identified as one of the eight most degraded rain-fed agro ecosystems of the country. There are acute shortages of drinking water, fodder and fuel wood, caused by deforestation, decreased vegetative cover and soil erosion. Rain fed agriculture is the prevalent production system in Shivaliks. The Punjab Shivaliks, because of their peculiar geological formations and exposure to greater biometrical treatment due to their proximity to plains represent the most fragile ecosystem of Himalayan mountainous range (Sub et al, 2000).

Unlike the present working plan which is written as per National Working Plan Code there is no specific format/code available for Management Plan. It is deemed that in absence of any such code this management plan has been written on the lines of existing National Working Plan code of 2014.

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 14

The Tract Dealt With

1. Management Plan has been the main instrument of forest planning (more exactly forest working in PLPA areas of S.A.S. Nagar Forest Division for scientific management of forests. It is a very useful document for evaluating the status of forests an biodiversity resources of a Forest Division, assessing the impact of past management practices and deciding about suitable management interventions for future. Periodical up-dating and revision of management plan is essential to keep place with the trends emerging out of forest-people interface and to address national and international obligations.

2. Preparation of management plan is a highly technical exercise under taken at regular interval in each Forest Division. The preparation of the management plan is based on stock and vegetation maps which is prepared through ground surveys. Recently, the use of modern tools like remote sensing, GIS and GPS is being utilized for preparing the forest cover maps of forest divisions. Every management plan includes the area specific scientific prescriptions for proper management of forests of a particular forest division, while working schemes are prepared for smaller areas for a specific purpose or for forest areas under the control/ ownership of such bodies as private, village, municipal, cantonment etc. These prescriptions enable necessary co-existence of development with nature for simultaneous implementation of Indian Forest Act, 1927, Wildlife (Protection) Act, 1972, Forest Conservation Act, 1980, Panchayats (Extension to the Scheduled Areas) Act, 1996 (PESA), Biological Diversity Act, 2002 and meeting the requirements of the objectives of the National Forest Policy and other international conventions/agreements.

3. All forests are to be sustainably managed under the prescription of a management plan/scheme. The National Forest Policy clearly states

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 15

“No forest should be permitted to be worked without an approved management plan by the competent authority”. It is the duty of the Divisional Forest Officer of the forest area to ensure the preparation of the management plan/scheme. The authority as designated by the MoEF, will approve the management and ensure its implementation. Even working schemes have all major elements of a management plan and these schemes also need the sanction of the competent authority.

4. There has been a paradigm shift in the objectives of management of forests and forest management has become more people centric and oriented to provide the goods and services from forests on sustained basis, with an emphasis on ecological services and harvest of usufructs as well. The working plan should be in consonance with general planning, which is village based. Therefore the working plan should encompass the village as a unit and realign the compartments accordingly. Proper guidelines for sustainable use of community forests, extraction, processing, market and trade of minor forest produce, etc. may be provided under separate working circle. Forest community rights related to community forest resources, minor forest produce, grazing grounds, water bodies, etc. recognized under the provision of the Forest Right Act, 2006,can be exercised within the framework of sustainable use. On the other hand, management of forests adversely affected by mining, industries, urbanization and other non-forest activities is also of great challenge for which special planning initiatives are needed.

5. For involvement and benefit of local stakeholders, micro plans are to be prepared within the ambit of management plan prescriptions for joint Forest Management (JFM) areas and eco development plans are to be prepared for eco-sensitive forest areas adjoining the notified protected areas. The micro plan of jointly managed forests is prepared by the members of the Joint Forest Management

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 16

Committee (JFMC), through Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA), with the technical assistance of forest staff of the territorial division as per MoU, for sharing the responsibilities of implementation and equitable sharing of usufructs among the stakeholders within the broad prescriptions of working plan. Micro plan is approved by concerned working Plan Officer (WPO)/Divisional Forest Officer (DFO)/Forest Development Agency (FDA) as per prevailing conditions in the state/UT. Proper implementation of the micro plan by each JFMC should be reviewed at least once in two years by the Forest Development Agency (FDA).

1.1 Name and situation

The forest dealt with in this management plan fall under Forest Division, S.A.S. Nagar. The S.A.S. Nagar District lies on the South Eastern part of the Punjab State. The territorial jurisdiction of S.A.S. Nagar Forest Division coincides with that of the S.A.S. Nagar District. It lies between 76º-18' and 76º-52' E longitudes and 30º- 35' and 31º-26' N. latitudes. It is bounded by Himachal Pradesh in the North-East, Union Territory of Chandigarh, Haryana and Patiala, & Ludhiana Forest Divisions in the South.

S.A.S. Nagar district has three Sub-Divisions viz. , Kharar and Derabassi which fall in this Division. One sub Division of Fathegarh Sahib District, namely, Khamano fall in S.A.S Nagar Forest Division. S.A.S. Nagar Forest Division is comprised of four Forest Ranges viz. S.A.S. Nagar, Derabassi, Siswan, and Khamanon.

1.2 Configuration of the ground

The Shivaliks have a geographical spread of 9448.97 Km2 covering 2.6% of the total area of the state. It is 280 km long with width ranging from 5 km to 12 km in various parts. The tract spreads over the eastern

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 20 parts of the districts of Pathankot, Hoshiarpur, Nawanshahr, Ropar and SAS Nagar of Punjab.

The Shivaliks of north- west states (Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, Jammu and Kashmir, Punjab and Uttar Pradesh) present a highly dissected topography created by ephemeral streams of various generic types. The Shivalik hills are characterized by tropical dry deciduous forests with abundance of thorny species. Agriculture still continues to be primarily of subsistence nature in the entire range due to lack of irrigation facilities.

The area is sloping and undulating, the precipitation in the North hills is drained by ‘Choes’ or hill-torrents, which spring up during the rainy season. In case of plantations in the hills and foothills of Norths, irrigation is not possible because of acute shortage of water even for drinking purposes. Conventionally hand watering or irrigation is not undertaken in these rain-fed plantations. Therefore, the success of plantations mainly depends on timely planting during the monsoon period and soil and water conservation measures taken up in their vicinity. Many earthen dams, artificial barrages, multipurpose dams with small and big reservoirs and Kandi canal have also been constructed for augmenting irrigation facilities in Kandi area.

1.3 Geology Rocks and Soil: -

1.3.1 Geology

The Shivalik hills rise abruptly along the western flanks from the 400 m contour line to about 600 m heights in the central ridge of the range. The Shiwaliks of Punjab are in the form of two ranges separated from one another by river Beas in district Ropar.

The First Range runs from river Ravi to river Satluj in the district of Gurdaspur, Hoshiarpur, Nawanshehar and Nurpur Bedi Block of Ropar district. It is about 180 km long and the average breadth is from 6 to 8 km in east west direction. This Shivalik range widens in the middle to the east of district Hoshiarpur to a

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 21 plateau like upland called Bir Manaswal. Here the average width of the upland is 12 to 15 km. The range narrows southwards to terminate abruptly near the town of Ropar along the right bank of river Satluj. There is a wide gap in this range which is formed by river Beas along the border of Gurdaspur and . Thus this range has Two Parts.

The Hoshiarpur or the main Shivalik range runs between rivers Beas and river Satluj in district Hoshiarpur and Nawanshehar (SBS Nagar) and the Nurpur Bedi block of district Ropar. It runs for about 130 km with average width of 5 to 8 km. It extends along Punjab-Himachal border and Hoshiarpur, Nawashehar- Ropar district border. The backbone of the hills runs from northwest to southeast direction and the ridges trend east and west towards the flanks of the hills tract. The Shiwaliks of Beas-Satluj regions are wider and higher, especially towards the north and become narrower and lower southwards. The Shivaliks here are formed largely of barely coherent sandrock with occasional clays, gravels and conglomerates.

The second Shiwalik Range runs to the south east of the First Range and river Satluj along the Himachal border in Northwest to southeast direction for about 90 km in the district of Ropar. The range extend between rivers Satluj near Township in the north to river Ghagghar in the south to break in the north centre by river Sirsa a tributary of river Satluj from the left bank. The northern section of this range, remains more or less in Himachal Pradesh and party in Punjab territory with some hills here and there. The general altitude of the hills is about 500 m. The western flank of this Shiwalik range in Punjab is irregular and greatly dissected by numerous seasonal streams which have formed raised terraces (Khols) in the deep interior of this hill tract. The hills are composed of unconsolidated gravel and sand and sandstone with unstable slopes, innumerable rills, gullies, choes and loop cut terraces. A numbers of seasonal and ephemeral streams (Choes and Raos) flow westward into the flattish alluvial plains.

1.3.2 Rock

As per as geology is concerned the rocks are classified into two broad belts-outer belt and inner belt formed respectively during the upper tertiary and lower tertiary periods.

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 22

Upper Shiwalik: Soft earths, Clays and Boulders, Conglobe

Middle Shiwalik: Massure sand rocks, Clay beds.

Lower Shiwalik: Grey micaceous sand stones and unfossiliferous slabs.

1.3.3 Soil:

Profile analysis reveals that soil is clayey with large preponderance of silt fraction and the soils are siliceous in nature. The amount of silica sesquioxide increases with depth while calcium carbonate is absent. These soils have been designated as transitional soils of alluvial origin. The hilly areas have a slope varying from 10 to 50 percent or even more at a few places. In the hills and foothills, the soil is mixture of sand and clay with coarse ingredients of pebbles and gravels. The soils are generally shallow in hills and foothills and are well drained. Soil is mostly poor in nitrogen and organic matter.

The area can also be classified into three major physiographic units i.e. Shiwalik hills, piedmont plain and 'Choes'. In the Shiwalik , the general slope of the area varies between 10 to 50 % even more at a few places. The plains area in general are nearly level to gently slopping with slopes of 0.5 to 5.0 % On the basis of morphological, physico-chemical studies of the soil profile from the different meteorological divisions, Sharma (1953) classified the soils into the world group Zone No. 2 . These soils represent those developed under humid conditions and hot climate of sub mountainous areas. Profile of virgin wasteland of these areas consists of the following description:-

Depth Description (inches)

0-6 Dark brown, silty, clayloam, no effervescence with Hcl, Ph approx. 7.0.

6-42 Brown clay compact, no effervescence with Hcl, pH same as above.

1.5 Water Supply

The area is sloping and undulating, the precipitation in the Shiwalik hills is drained by ‘Choes’ or hill-torrents, which spring up during the rainy season. In case of plantations in the hills and foothills of Shiwaliks, irrigation is not possible because of acute shortage of water even for drinking purposes. Conventionally hand watering or irrigation is not undertaken in these rain-fed plantations. Therefore, the success of plantations mainly depends on timely planting during the monsoon period and soil and water conservation measures taken up in their vicinity.

1.6 AREA DIVERTED FOR NON-FORESTRY USES

Approximately 322.056 ha of forest area has been diverted till the year 2016 for different non-forestry purposes in the area covered under Sahibzada Ajit Singh Nagar forest division since enactment of FCA- 1980, but the legal status of the diverted forest land has not changed. The details are given in Annexure -1A.

CHAPTER • Maintenance/increase in the extent of forest II and Tree cover

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 29

2 Maintenance/increase in the extent of forest and tree cover 2.1 Area of forests under different legal classes (RF,PF,UF and others)

The Punjab Land Preservation Act, 1900 (PLPA) was initially enacted to provide for the better preservation and protection of certain portions of the territories of Punjab situate within are adjacent to the Shiwalik mountain range. This allowed areas to be closed to grazing, controlled the type of livestock permitted within grazing areas and could prohibit tree felling, cultivation and quarrying. The regulation of the area under PLPA, 1900 has significantly helped to improve vegetative cover, moisture regime and in arresting soil erosion.

The total geographical area of SAS NAGAR District is 1093.00 km2 and the forest area of S.A.S. Nagar FOREST DIVISION is 31.7148 km2 .Thus forest area (Government Forests) is about 2.90% of Area of SAS NAGAR district.

The forest areas can be divided into five major categories as under:

S. No Category Area (ha) 1 Block Forest 1457.40 2 Roadside Forest 476.16 3 Rail side Forest 184.83 4 Canalside Forest 847.91 5 Drains & bundhs side 205.18 Forest Total 3171.48

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 30

Area closed under sec. 4 & 5 of Punjab Land Preservation Act 1900 (PLPA, 1900) is owned by private individuals/community/Panchayat owned and it measures as 10052.14 hectare. Detail of area, under this Management Plan which falls in 30 villages is as given at Annexure 1A.

2.2 Forest area under the management plan

Ministry of Environment and Forests, Government of India vide F.No. 8-19/2006-FC dated 24th July 2009 conveyed approval for de-listing of 55339.95 ha cultivated and habitation areas closed under Punjab Land Preservation Act, 1900 from the list of forests area subject to certain conditions in the state. Out of total cultivated and habitation area 14210.55 ha of S.A.S.Nagar Forest Division, 4157.83 ha area has been de-listed in this division. Thus total area remained notified under Sec 4-5 of Punjab Land Preservation Act, 1900 is 10052.14 ha in the S.A.S.Nagar Forest Division, which is the area covered under this management plan.

2.3 Land use, land-use change and forestry (LULUCF)

It is a historical fact that a significant chunk of land closed under section 4 & 5 of PLPA has been under use as arable agricultural land and other similar uses to support livelihood of communities inhabiting the Kandi Tract. The non-forest land use in this area has been prevalent, many decades before the Hon'ble Supreme Court's order on 12.12.1996 in Writ Petition No. 202 of 1995 i.e. T. N. Godaverman versus Union of India & others. As per Govt. of India’s Letter No. F.No. 8-18/2006-FC dated 16.03.06 in principle approval has been granted for agricultural land use and other bonafide livelihood activities as scope of such activities was inherently there under provisions of PLPA 1900 under which the

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 31 areas are primarily regulated. Infact arable lands constitute about 40% of the area notified under PLPA, 1900. Due to a technicality resulting in rigid application of forest laws like FCA which has caused such alienation as the significant area has been under cultivation before the promulgation of FCA and therefore the State Government had filed an affidavit and in principle approval was received from Government of India. Being mostly rain-fed areas, arable areas yield mostly depend upon rains. Now there is a thrust of planting of improved varieties of fruit plants on these and adjoining hilly areas, so that income of the local inhabitants can be increased. It is important to obtain people’s participation by addressing their genuine needs for betterment of these arable areas.

2.4 Threats to the forest

Common disasters and injuries to which forest is liable are:-

2.4.1 FOREST FIRE

Forest fires are caused by Natural causes as well as Man-made causes

 Natural causes- Many forest fires start from natural causes such as lightning which set trees on fire. However, rain extinguishes such fires without causing much damage. High atmospheric temperatures and dryness (low humidity) offer favorable circumstance for a fire to start.

 Man made causes- Fire is caused when a source of fire like naked flame, cigarette or bidi, electric spark or any source of ignition comes into contact with inflammable material.

Human related causes result from human activity as well as methods of forest management. These can be intentional or unintentional, for example:

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 32

 graziers and gatherers of various forest products starting small fires to obtain good grazing grass as well as to facilitate gathering of minor forest produce like flowers of Madhuca indica and leaves of Diospyros melanoxylon

 the use of fires by villagers to ward off wild animals

 fires lit intentionally by people living around forests for recreation

 fires started accidentally by careless visitors to forests who discard cigarette butts.

The government of Punjab has constituted a forest fire crisis management cell in the department of forest and wildlife preservation (2011). This cell is to monitor and communicate the incidence of forest fires in the state received from various sources.

STRATEGIES ADOPTED TO MANAGE FIRE:

1. Pre Fire Season Preparation

2. Approval of District Fire Management plan

3. Awareness generation Campaigns

4. Rotational burning / controlled burning of forest floor litter

5. Clearing of fire lines in the forest

6. Master Control Room (MCR)

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 33

7. Watch towers

8. Crew Stations

9. Wireless communication Networks

10. Satellite based information system

11. Efficient fire fighting tools

12. Adoption of suitable techniques to reduce fuel loads on forest floor.

STRATEGY TO COMBAT FOREST FIRE

1. Deployment of fire watchers during fire season

2. Satellite based information through SMS/Email from FSI

3. Taking the help of nearby VFC, Panchayat, SHGs and village members in dousing the fire.

4. Forest fire control room (MCR & CR)

5. Water holes are filled with water using water tanks in the Protected areas so that it might also be used for dousing fire in such areas.

Coordination of forest department is also carried out with the district level officials like District magistrate and Superintendent of Police to make available Police personnel, Home guards, fire service personnel, Home guards, PWD department.

2.4.2 DROUGHT

Cutting of forest trees, illegal felling, shrinking of greenery, extension of concrete jungle has created spells of drought seasons and

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 34 failure of monsoons in the state. Groundwater depletion is a serious problem faced by the state.

The shivaliks have been identified as one of the eight most degraded rain-fed agro ecosystems of the country. There are acute shortages of drinking water, fodder and fuel wood, caused by deforestation, decreased vegetative cover and soil erosion. Rain fed agriculture is the prevalent production system in Shivaliks.

Soil and water conservation is the only way to manage drought and prevent the occurance of serious disaster. To drought proof the area and facilitating ground water recharge and enhance productivity from lands as well as augment farmers income and availability of fodder to reduce pressure on forest land, various small conservation and local irrigation works such as Small Dams, Cement Masonry Structures, Silt Detention Structures, Makkowal Type Structures, Microlift irrigation and renovation/construction of new ponds are carried out with active public participation which will be beneficial for soil/water conservation as well as improving productivity and reducing pressure on the forests. These measures will significantly improve the water regime of the area.

2.4.3 SOIL EROSION

Erosion is a serious menace in the Shivalik region along the river courses, streams and choes and in the south-western arid and hot region. It is more prevalent in hilly areas where water erosion by various choes and streams is more and is aggravated by the loose structure and softness of rocks, steep slopes, ruggedness, deforestation, overgrazing and various cultural and economic activities of man. The district of S.A.S. Nagar is the worse affected area of choe erosion and dissection due to rain splash, sheet erosion, hilly, gully and stream erosion.

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 35

2.4.4 FLOODS

Unpredictable rains, flash floods, volatile river action where the course of river keeps shifting, Soil erosion, uprootal of trees, and siltation in the flood plains are some of the serious problems faced in the state. The soil conservation structures like Small check-dams, Gabions and Cement Masonry Structures, Silt Detention Structures are constructed to prevent serious damage during flood. The release of water through spillways from Bhakra Dam reservoir to maintain the water level results in the flooding of many villages. Efficient management of the watershed is the only way to tackle floods and problems associated with it.

2.4.5 GRAZING AND BROWSING

The grazing and browsing has been rampant because of change in the land use pattern where grazing areas in village common lands are drastically decreasing. Soil Erosion is a serious menace in the Shivalik region along the river courses, streams and choes and in the south- western arid region. The cause of soil erosion and injury to forest crops and its regeneration is due to illicit grazing, over grazing and browsing of the forest areas. This results in the conversion of soil which is well binded by the vegetative cover into a loose structure prone to high soil erosion. Illicit grazing and browsing of the forest by the domesticated animals (cows, buffaloes, sheep and goats) have resulted in the conversion of forest to bare rock, desert like surface. The trampling of the animals on the slopes further loosens the already fragile soil structure. Ravines and torrents are formed gradually which cut the hill into series of ridges and hollows and the material this removed forms fan shaped accumulations of sands extending into agricultural lands in plains covering huge areas of fertile land. Ferrel cattle also place a huge role in causing damage to the crops. Measures that are to be implemented for controlling injuries to forest plantations are fencing the area with barbed wire in advance. Strict

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 36 enforcement of the acts is to be done and spreading of awareness regarding forest laws to the village community.

2.4.6 ILLEGAL FELLING AND LOPPING OF TREES

The pressure on the forest is mainly for fuel and large requirement of small timber for domestic purpose. Illegal felling and lopping of trees particularly Khair is one of the most serious problems faced by the department. Regular patrolling by the Forest Force, utilizing the assistance of local people/VFCs and strict enforcement of forest laws are ensured to check and curb the forest offences in these areas.

2.5 Distribution of different forest types

As per revised classification of forests by Champion & Seth (Champion & Seth 1968, the area covered under this Management plan has 5B/C2 (Northern dry mixed deciduous forests) which deteriorates at certain places into the category 5B/DS2 (Dry Deciduous Scrub) Khair, Sissoo Forests in foot hills, and Bela and Mand area (type 5/IS2) forest types. On the basis of climate, relief and location & density of growth and appearance, mostly following forests types are found in this tract:

2.5.1 NORTHERN DRY MIXED DECIDUOUS FOREST (5B/C2)

This has the most widespread distribution with about 775 km2 area, accounting for nearly half the forest cover of Shiwaliks. These types of forests are dominated by Acacia catechu, Anogeissus latifolia with the association of Lannea coromandalica, Aegle marmelos, Ehretia laevis, Mallotus philippensis, Nyctanthus arbortristis, Dendrocalamus strictus etc.

2.5.2 DRY DECIDUOUS SCRUB FOREST (5B/DS2)

This is the second dominant forest type of the area mainly constituted by Lantana scrub. Dominant species constituting such vegetation are Acacia catechu, A. modesta, Carissa opaca, Dodonaea

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 37 angustifolia, Nyctanthes arbortristis, Woodfordia fruticosa, Ziziphus mauritiana, Z. nummulariaandEuphorbia royleana. In these scrub forests there is undergrowth of scrub in the choe valley and sheltered slopes. On hills top and higher, Baggar or Bhabbar grass grows widely. Shisham is more wide spread and dense along choe beds.

2.5.3 KHAIR SISSOO FORESTS (5/1S2)

In many areas there are Khair-Sissoo forests in the foot hills. Dalbergia sissoo predominates, associated with Acacia catechu. The canopy is open and older woods have more or less definite under storey, which is mainly composed of few species of Tamarix dioca, Acacia fornesiana, Cannabis sativa and grass like Saccharum spontaneum, Erianthus munja etc.

2.5.4 CHIR PINE FORESTS (9/C1)

This type of forests is found in limited areas of S.A.S.Nagar district at altitudes between 500-800mt. These areas have moist climate, rainfall of 100 cm or above, favourable aspect. These are less disturbed area having difficult access. The chir-pine forest area supports some units of Resin & Turpentine oil manufacturing at Hoshiarpur city. Pinus roxburghii is associated with Mallotus philippensis and Acacia catechu, etc 2.5.5 DRY BAMBOO BRAKES (5E/9) Only one species Dendrocalamus strictus occurs in such forests and forms relatively low brakes with a sprinkling of the trees and shrubs of dry deciduous forests such as Anogeissus latifolia, Lannea coromandelica etc.

2.5.6 SUB TROPICAL EUPHORBIA SCRUB (C1/DS2/9)

Euphorbia royleana forms co-associations sometimes of considerable extent. Their distribution is related to edaphic factors, notably in dry rocky patches, where biotic pressure has been high.

3 Maintenance, Conservation and Enhancement of Biodiversity

3.1 Forest composition and distribution

Assessment of Growing Stock of Private Forest Areas closed under section-4 of PLPA 1900, in 30 villages falling under S.A.S.Nagar Forest Division has been done by laying sampling plots of size 10 mtr x 10 mtr in most of the villages of forest area having variable canopy densities and spp. The growing stock has improved significantly on account of plantations carried out in last few decades under various externally aided projects and State/Centrally sponsored schemes. In addition large scale agroforestry plantations have also been undertaken by the land owners.

3.2 Plant species diversity

Vegetation cover over the tract has been described by various authors like Tailor (1934-36) Hoon (1939) etc. The main tree species found are Khair (Acacia catechu), Shisham (Dalbergia sissoo), Kikar (Acacia nilotica) and Mango (Mangifera indica) etc. Other important tree species are Semal (Bombax ceiba), Amla (Emblica officinalis), Rajain (Holopteleaintegrifolia), Kembal (Lannea grandis), Tun (Toona ciliata), Palahi (Acacia modesta), Neem (Azadirachta indica), Kinu (Diospyros tomentosa), Amaltas (Cassia fistula) Kangu (Flacuortia ramontchii), Dhak (Butea monosperma), Sannan (Ougenia oojensis), Wan (Salvadora oleoides), Beri (Zizyphus mauritiana), Dhaman (Grewia oppositifolia), Kachnar (Bauhinia variegata), and Chhall ( Anogeissus latifolia) etc. Two bamboo species namely Dendrocalamus strictus and D. Hamiltonii are also found in some areas in S.A.S.Nagar Forest Division.

Main shrubs are Beri (Zizyphus numularia), Kuri (Nyctanthes arbortristis), Dhavi (Woodfordia fruticosa), Panch-phooli (Lantana camara), Garna (Carrissa opaca), Mehndar (Dodonaea viscosa), Kaner (Nerium indicum), Gandla (Murraya koenighii), Basuti (Adhatoda vasica), Satyanashi (Xanthium spp.), Aak (Ipomoea cornea),Bhang (Cannabis sativa) etc.

The main climbers found are Taur (Bauhinia vahlii), Giloe (Tinospora malabarica), Gauj (Millena auriculata) and Daghiari (Mimosa himalayana).

The main grasses and weeds are Bhabbar (Eulaliopsis binata), Sarkanda (Saccharum arundinaceum), (which is fed to paper mills at Saila Khurd,Mukerian etc) Kahi (Saccharum spontaneum), Salara (Heteropogon contortus), Dib (Typha elephantina), Khabbal (Cynodon dactylon), Bhakra (Tribulus teristris), Bathu (Chenopodium album), Kahdari (Solanum xanthocarpum)etc.

The detailed list of common trees, Shrubs, herbs, climbers and grasses found in this division is given as Annexure-3 A.

3.3 Status of biodiversity conservation in forests

Biodiversity means the variety of life on earth and the natural pattern it forms. The biodiversity is the fruit of billions of years of evolution shaped by natural processes. Biodiversity includes variety of ecosystem such as those occur in deserts, forests, wetlands, mountains, lakes, rivers and agricultural landscapes. In each ecosystem living creatures including humans form a community, interacting with one another and with the air, water and soil around them. The main objective of this Management Plan is to conserve the existing bio diversity in this forest division

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 41

Different successful trials for introduction of new exotic trees species have also been carried out in different sub-watersheds in this division for species like Dalbergia latifolia, Santalum album, Melia compostia, Lucenia luecocephala and many suitable species of Bamboo etc.

3.4 Fauna and their habitats

The faunal diversity of the area includes Protozoan (84 species), Platyhelminthes (47 species), Nematodes (140 species), Annelids (36 species), Arthropods (1206 species), Pisces (143 species), Amphibians (14species), Reptiles (30species), Aves (461species) and Mammals (30 species) groups.

The area is having good population of Sambar, Nilgai, Wild pig, Barking deer, Jackal, Rhesus monkey and other small mammals, reptiles, and many birds.Big carnivores are not found in the area but sometimes leopard migrates from Himachal Pradesh to areas of S.A.S.Nagar district. Rare animals like Pangolins and Pythons, which are included in the international red data list of I.C.U.N, are also found in this part of the Shivaliks.

The endangered species of fauna in Punjab according to Prasad (1984) of ZSI are Desert cat, Caracal and those belonging to Vulnerable category are wolf clawless otter, Leopard cat, Panther, Black-buck and Chinkara. 29 species are under schedules of Indian Wildlife Protection Act 1972 and 8 species are under CITES.

A great diversity of birds is also found in the biodiverse region of the shivaliks in General and S.A.S.Nagar in particular. Blue tailed bee eater, green bee eater, Blue throated barbet, red rumped swallow and golden oriole are seen in the area.

The detailed list of common animals and birds is given in Annexure-3 B.

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 42

3.5 Threats and challenges to wildlife

Since the beginning of the 19th century ruthless destruction of wild life habitat has resulted in pronounced impoverishment and regression of wild animals. During the past the wild animals particularly the carnivores have been indiscriminately hunted and killed from this area to the point of extinction. Also the habitat of wild animals has been greatly affected by intensive agriculture, urbanization and construction of dams and canals. Most of the land of the State had been cleared for cultivation leaving only about 5.76 % of area under forest. Intensive agriculture on one hand depleted the habitat of herbivores whereas on the other hand it favored rodent pests. The herbivores, due to the depletion of their natural habitat and the destruction of the natural predator, sometimes raid the standing crops of the forest neighboring communities.

Some birds such as yellow watted lapwing, Painted stork, Crested honey buzzard. Golden eagles, King Vulture, Horned owl have become rare.

3.6 Protection and management of fauna

The Wild Life Protection Act, 1972 was enforced in Punjab State w.e.f. 1/4/1975 to save the wild life. Efforts to reduce man-animal conflict using various types of measures to reduce hostility of local population towards wild animals have been in place. Provision for water holes, availability of food and fodder in forests for wild animals, appropriate fencing in non arable area etc. are important preventive measures, which ensure that animal don’t move to habitation and farm areas. Presence of stray cattle in these forests has strong adverse impact on biodiversity and forest ecosystem. Also due to depletion of their natural habitat and destruction of natural predator, herbivores sometimes raid the standing crops. Many a times the agriculture crops are being

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 43 damaged by the wild boar, blue bull, monkeys, other deer speciesand feral cattles.

There is a Wild life division headquarter at Rupnagar which caters to the wildlife in the S.A.S.Nagar district and to meet the challenges posed to the wild animals.

4.1 Status of regeneration

(A) NATURAL REGENERATION

Natural regeneration is better in the foot hills along the water bodies when compared to the hilly areas. There is good root stock existing in some areas. Such areas having good potential for natural regeneration will be fenced tended and protected against the cattle damage.

(B) ARTIFICIAL REGENRATION

Artificial Regeneration may be taken up in all the villages and areas closed under section 4 & 5 of PLPA. After the completion of JBIC Project, afforestation works in section 4 & 5 areas in these closed villages is being done under other projects/ schemes such as Green India Mission etc. Condition for some bare minimum planting by farmers in private forest land after harvest as described in the felling policy described later in Chapter 8.

In accordance of the above provisions, the details of the artificial regeneration works which have been undertaken during the previous plan period in the PLPA areas of S.A.S.Nagar Division is given in the following table:

4.2 Details of Area affected by pests/ diseases / fire / grazing/ weeds etc.

Fire, weed infestation and grazing etc. pose major threat to productivity and quality of forest habitats in this tract. In absence of good vegetative cover due to illicit grazing, over grazing and browsing in the forest areas, soil which is well-bonded by vegetative cover becomes loose and highly prone to erosion. Weeds and exotics like Lantana, Parthenium and Mesquite have taken over at many places and their removal and uprooting becomes major task.

4.3 Forest degradation and its drivers

Prior to the middle of 18th century, the Shiwalik hills in Punjab were strictly preserved for hunting and no cultivation, grazing or exploitation of timber was permitted. At that time the hills were covered with thick lush Acacia, Shisham and Pine forests with a profuse undercover of shrubs and grasses replete with wild life. However, after the Sikh Wars (1845-49) the Sardars and Rajas who owned the hunting lands were evicted and the forests were handed over to the villagers in addition to their village common lands. In less than two generations unrestricted tree felling and overgrazing have played havoc with the vegetation. Besides increasing

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 49 human population, the livestock density far exceeding the current carrying capacity of the land, frequent forest fires and improper land use and management have resulted in steady but obvious natural resource degradation especially that of land and water resources and exhaustion of floral and faunal wealth. The area once dotted with perennial springs and gentle streams got converted into ever widening and deepening ferocious torrents (Choes). The situation further deteriorated after independence (Mittal et al., 2000). Consequently, the Shiwaliks are facing ecological environmental socio-economic, fertility and productivity problems emanating from anthropogenic pressure on the natural resources.

Presence of stray cattle in these forests area is having strong adverse impact on biodiversity and forest ecosystem. Therefore part of private community land/forest may be demarcated and well marked where stray cattle can be confined for protection of regeneration and biodiversity. Such area can be appropriately fenced for the purpose.

• Conservation and CHAPTER Maintenance of V Soil and Water Resources

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 51

5 Conservation and Maintenance of Soil and Water Resources

5.1 Area treated under soil and water conservation measures

The Shiwalik hills are formed of easily erodible and weakly cemented sand stones and inter bedded clay and silt strata. Even with good vegetative cover, the heavy storms of the monsoon season cause significant erosion and peakly flash flows. About 30 percent of the precipitation in the catchment flows immediately as runoff, a part of which infiltrates into the ground through the choe beds in the plains and the rest outflows to the main rivers, viz. Sutlej and Beas either through the two Beins, drainage channels or directly.

5.2 Duration of water flow in the selected seasonal streams

The drainage channels in the Shiwalik range originate in the sloping land in the upper reaches of the watersheds and develop into gullies. A series of such gullies or channels may combine further down to take the form of gorges or ravines. Such ravines merge into seasonal streams towards the lowers reaches of watershed which ultimately merge as meandering torrents (Choes) on entering the plains. The main water resources in the area are springs, nallahs, wells tube-wells and rivers. An appreciable part of the flow from choes seeps into the ground and augments the ground water resources in the Bist Doab Tract and the land south east to the Sutlej River. The water resources in the Kandi Tract mainly consist of the surface flow in the choes.

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 52

The region has large number of choes and khads (torrents) which form a special feature of the drainage in this part of Punjab. The choes have water only when it rains. They are otherwise dry. Each choe is a broad river of sand with a shallow ever shifting bed and undefined low banks. During the heavy rains are in spate and come down armed with masses of sand thus causing rapid erosion on the plains below forming an immense “pan-fan”. On the steeper slopes they have cut deep incisions forming badly land topography. On the gentler slopes they split into undefined channels. Hence, vast lands are rendered infertile.

5.3 Water level in the vicinity of forest area

The water table gradient in Kandi area is maintained largely by the direct infiltration of rainfall. Heavy abstraction in parts of Kandiarea reduce the net inflow, as a result the water table gradient gradually flattens thereby further increasing the Depth of water in the upper reaches of the Kandi area i.e. foot hill zone in particular. The water table in the Kandi area varies from 30 mt. to 90mt. below ground level in the upper reaches of the area along foothill zone and 5mt. to 10mt. below ground level in the lower reaches of the area.

The part of Shiwalik hills is formed by poorly cemented sand stones and siltstones and the permeability of the sand is very low. The depth of water table in the hills is very deep except where it is intercepted by deeply incised valleys. Water table within the Shiwaliks is held up by the low horizontal permeability zone formed by steeply dipping beds at the foot of the hills.

The Kandi area, due to its sandy and gravelly nature serves as a potential ground water recharge zone.

6 Optimization of Forest Resources Utilization

6.1 Demand and supply of timber and important non-timber forest produce

Population is predominantly dependent on rain fed agriculture. Horticulture is also being practiced side by side. Agro forestry primarily of Poplar has also been undertaken on a large scale. There are lots of saw mills, furniture makers both small and big, which employ a large chunk of work-force. Grazing is not a very predominant feature for the employment purpose but graziers from hills come with their herds in winter. The pressure on the forest is mostly from the inhabitants for the supply of small & large timber, fodder and fuel wood. Baggar grass is basically used for Ban making, paper and pulp industries. Munj etc. are also used for paper pulp and rope. Leaves of Bauhinia vahlli are used to make leaf plates and dishes.

6.2.II NTFP Removal & Use

Baggar is one the most important Non Timber Forest Produce (NTFP) in this area and is used in the paper industry as well as for rope making by local people. Most of the Villagers are dependent on the forests for their livelihood and are involved in ‘Baan Making’ or Rope Making from Baggar grass which is brought by the local community from the forests. The JFMC generally auctions the Non Timber Forest Produce comprising of fruits and grasses from the Protected Forests. The amount generated through auction is used for the development of village as well as for the development and betterment of forest.

6.2.II.1 Katha Extraction

Katha bhatties are permitted in the area during the felling season. The number of bhatties and their location is decided keeping in view the availability of khair timber.

6.2.II.2 Charcoal Making

The permits to make charcoal from dead dry trees or cut material of the trees are given on certain conditions laid down in rules. These provisions include-

 Charcoal bhatties not to be permitted in summer/fire season to prevent forest fires.

 Charcoal bhatties to be located near choe beds where water is available to put-off fire in case of any mishap etc.

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 58

6.3 Import and export of wood and wood products

Local market of wood is very well established. Main mandis of this region are in Mohali and chandigarh. Timber species, which are generally traded for furniture and construction works, are Shisham and Eucalyptus. Road network is extensive. Normal means of transportation are Train, Tractor, Truck, Car, Bus, and Bullock Cart etc.

6.4 Valuation of the products

Permits are issued for felling of trees to the landowners and cost of exploitation is born by them. Permits are issued according to the Management Plan approved by the Ministry of Environment and Forests, Government of India. Land owners sell the trees at their own in market.

Generally the round timber of all sizes and lengths, brought to the market by local people, is sold by weight in quintals. The people are more interested in bringing the timber to market as soon as they fell the trees without losing moisture and thus to get more weight age. The rates of timber have increased manifold in the past decades. Two factors viz. increasing demand and inadequate availability of timber have played evidently a big role for such rise.

6.4.I Wood-Based Industries Regulations Rules

In compliance of the order dated 30/12/2007 passed by the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India, the State has formulated rules called Punjab Regulation of Saw mills, Veneer & Plywood Industries Rules, 2006 to regulate wood based industries in the state vide Punjab Govt.

JFMC utilized funds to provide training to youth self help groups, weaker sections for various Income Generation Activities like cutting & tailoring, vermin composting, bag making, nursery raising, surf making, phenyl making, soap making, pickle making, dairying and carpet making etc. ensuring sustainability of income to strengthen the JFMC’s The fund is also utilized to purchase tent house and to organise awareness camps which result into decrease pressure on forests through theft and illicit cutting of trees. The JFMCs provide employment to villagers and fully cooperate to forest officials for the betterment and protection of forests.

7.2 Status of Empowerment of JFMCs

To reduce the pressure on the forests and to make the process of regeneration in the forest areas sustainable the participation of people is obligatory. Therefore, the Joint Forest Management Committee, Village Forest Committees which represent all the stake holders of the village, have been constituted, the details of which have been attached as Annexure 7A. Furthermore, it is of paramount importance that alternative sources of income generation for the people living in the vicinity of the forests are created. Hence, Village Level Committees have been granted corpus fund for financing Self Help Groups in these villages to generate income to the individuals and committees. The Self Help Groups motivate landless and poor people for undertaking Income Generation Activities like, ban (rope) making, basket making, pickle, jam, jelly making etc. based on locally available materials. Other activities like computer training, beauty parlour and soft toy making etc. are also conducted for capacity building and for the benefit of the stakeholders.

In addition to this the entry point activities like construction of community centres, school rooms, micro-lift irrigations and other

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 66 developmental works under various schemes including Greening India Mission, Greening Punjab Mission in these villages have proved as a tool to bring local people closer to the forest staff which shall have a positive impact on biodiversity conservation.

Meetings with village panchayat, VFCs and other local institutions are regularly being held by the concerned field officers of the division through facilitators for consultation on important issues. Issues are discussed and their demands are taken in to consideration regularly. The main felling program, felling policy, marking and felling rules, fire management, weed management were explained to the stakeholders/VFCs. Apart from this, the proposed plantation programs, developmental works, ecotourism activities, capacity building programs mentioned in Management Plan have been discussed with the stakeholders and their suggestions have been incorporated.

Responsibility of protection of retained trees as per felling policy for Mustrka Malkan Land will be of Forest Department and JFMC of that village. Out of the total security amount collected from JFMC against the permits, 50% share will be used for protection and maintenance of forests and rest 50% amount will be used for numbering and marking with white band on the retained trees six monthly keeping these mark fresh.

7.3 Ecotourism Areas and Activities

Eco-tourism-ecologically balanced tourism in wilderness areas with a motive of enjoying natural beauty is latest useful tool in nature conservation. It is helpful in bringing proximity between citizens and nature. There is huge potential of eco-tourism in this hilly tract for which people may be encouraged to explore so that they also contribute towards conservation of forests. Therefore facilities for eco-tourism which blend with the environment can be constructed. Walking trails, temporary

8 Adequacy of Policy, Legal Institutional Framework

8.1 Existing Policy and Legal Framework

The whole of the tract which is mostly undulating is closed under section 4 of PLPA 1900. The areas comprising upper reaches which is more vulnerable to soil erosion is closed under section 5. The list of 30 villages which are having their areas closed under section 4 & 5 has already been mentioned in chapter 1.1 in part I.

The ownership of the area dealt with is private, common or Panchayat land. The closed area has been classified as “Private Forest” meaning thereby that these areas are not owned by the State Government but are managed by the Punjab forest department and are closed under section 4 & 5 of Punjab Land Preservation Act 1900 as per the provisions of the Act and approved Management Plan by Govt. of India. To give effect to the provisions of section 4&5 of the said Act, Punjab Govt. has issued notifications for specific periods in conformity with the broad outline of the Act. The purpose of this closure is to protect this area from soil erosion and degradation. The closed area is classified as “Private Forest” as on account of being included in annexure ‘G’ of the State affidavit submitted on the subject to the Hon’ble Supreme Court. According to Apex Court’s judgment dated 12- 12-1996 in respect of Writ Petition NO. 202 of 1995 i.e. T.N. Godaverman Thirumulkpad v/s Union of India others, the 'closed area' classified as “Private Forest” in the annual administrative report is ‘Forest’. Therefore the provisions of Forest Conservation Act, 1980 are also applicable with regard to diversion of forest area for non-forest purpose unless permitted under ancillary activities for broader objective

In compliance of the above-mentioned Court’s order, the present management plan for private area is prepared on the basis of relevant provisions and Punjab Government notifications in this regard. The land covered under this Management Plan is private forest owned by private individuals, communities and panchayats and they are responsible for protection of the forest areas under their holding.

8.2 Prohibitions applicable in areas closed under sections 4 of PLPA

To give effect to the provisions of section 4 of the said Act, Punjab Government issued notifications for specific period under specific section prohibiting certain activities in the notified areas in conformity with the broad outline of scientific management. All or any of the following activities are prohibited in various areas closed under section 4 vide different notifications:

The Punjab Forest Department manages these private forests closed under section 4 of Punjab Land Preservation Act, 1900 as per the provisions of the same there is a felling policy approved by state govt from time to time. The following important policies and procedures are adopted during for the management of these areas

The felling policy for marking / harvesting of trees in areas notified under sec 4 of PLPA, was issued vide Punjab Government’s Memo No. 39/2/2000-ft-3/spl dated 25.9.2007.

Of late, a strong need has been felt to examine and review the existing provisions regulating tree felling from the private forest areas e.g. felling policy, procedure for issue of permits, marking rules, felling rules & felling cycle etc so as to attain a delicate balance between the emerging needs of the local communities and long term ecological security needs of the State. The review is in the direction of simplifying and rationalizing the procedures for sustainable use of forest produce from such forests whilst simultaneously maintaining and enhancing the interests of local communities in forest resource conservation by providing item the direct benefits of forests on a sustainable basis.

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 73

Subsequently felling Policy was amended via Punjab Government memo no. 39/2/2000-ft-3/8083 dated 20.10.2011 and memo no. 39/2/2000-ft- 3/400931/1 dated 27.01.2015.

8.4.1. A(a) Main Felling Policy for Private Forests

1. The Principal Chief Conservator of Forests will approve the Felling Programme of forest areas notified under PLPA, 1900 in a given time frame. The programme will be based on 5 year cycle and will be termed as main felling programme. The approved main felling programme will be given wide publicity and Gram Panchayats /Joint Forest Management Committees/FPCs will also be informed

2. The marking /felling year for a particular village will generally be as prescribed above by the PCCF. However, the concerned DFO will be competent to grant permits in the year, subsequent to the main felling where owner of the forest could not avail permit or /could not fell the trees from his area in the prescribed year. The concerned Conservator of Forests will be competent to allow the DFO to grant permit for felling in such cases for another one year and CCF (Zonal) will be the authority to decide other remaining cases of deviations beyond two years. In each case, the competent authority will record the reasons for granting such deviation after satisfying himself about the reasons for such deviations and shall also ensure that the deviation period is not being sought to be extended unduly. Any such change or deviation however will not disturb the next stipulated felling programme of a village. Cases involving felling of trees from private forests on account of diversion of forest land for non-forestry purposes sanctioned under the Forest (Conservation) Act, 1980 by MoEF&CC will not require further permission for deviation.

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 74

3. For the following types of felling, the marking will be done and permit will be issued by the concerned DFO without consideration of the felling cycle of the main felling programme. Such felling can be termed as annual or subsidiary felling-

a) Dead, dry, dying (trees with more than 2/3rd crown area dried/died back) and fallen trees. Such trees will be removed from the forest before the onset of fire season i.e. 15th of April. b) Felling of trees (other than eucalyptus, poplar, drek, subabul and mulberry) in cultivated lands. c) Felling of Bamboo culms. d) Fast growing trees species like Eucalyptus, poplar subabul, drek, Mulberry in non-cultivated area having over bark girth of 45 cm and above at Breast height. In above cases, applications for issue of permits can be given throughout the year and permission will be granted by DFO within 45 days of receipt of complete application. Any delay beyond 45 days has to be explained to CF by the concerned DFO and owner has to be informed with reasons. No felling order, however, will be given for above cases during fire season i.e. 15th April to 30th June. e) Felling and sale of Poplar, Eucalyptus Drek, Bamboo clums, Subabul and Mulberry trees from cultivated fields will not require any prior permission. However the owner will intimate the concerned Forest Range Officer and DFO at least 15 days prior to the felling and obtain receipt of this communication from the concerned Range/Divisional office.

4. After fulfilling the requirements of felling policy procedure for issuing permits and marking rules, the felling permits shall be issued by the concerned DFO in the name of land owner.

No permit will be given for main felling (i.e. 5 year cycles) during the fire and plantation time i.e. from 15th April to 31st

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 75

August and for subsidiary felling between fire season i.e. 15th April to 30th June.

5. (i) The applications under the main felling programme, should reach the Divisional Forest Officer by 31st August during the year in which the area is due for felling.

(ii) Permission permit for felling of all eligible cases will be given by 31st December.

(iii) Felling will be completed by 28/29th Feb and felled material will be removed by 15th March.

6. (i) In exceptional cases, where circumstances are beyond the control of applicants, like prolonged illness of the applicant, long stay away from home, non deposition of security due to financial hardship of the applicant etc., the concerned DFO can issue permits up to 31st January and in such cases applications can be accepted up to 30th November.

(ii) In such cases also, Felling will normally be completed by 28th February and felled material will be removed from the forest area by 15th March.

7. In specific cases, however where the felled material could not be removed from the forest areas by the due date i.e. 15th March, concerned DFO can allow removal of such felled materials by 31th March after satisfying himself about the reasons given by the applicants and recording the justification for the same.

8. The operation of the permit can be cancelled by the competent authority at any time if the permit holder or his agent/representative is found guilty of illicit felling. The felled material can also be seized by the Forest officials in such cases and felling permits can also be denied to such applicants in future.

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 76

9. (i) For both cultivated and uncultivated areas felling permits will only be issued after depositing of security etc. by the applicant as assessed by the DFO and in accordance with provisions of Para (6) of the procedure for issuing felling permits for sale of trees under the main felling programme. Where Forest Protection Committees (FPC) exists, non refundable amount equivalent to 5% of the security money for the permits will be deposited by the permit holder for FPC/Village Forest Committee (VFC) of the village. The amount will be deposited in a separate account open for such purpose by the DFO from where it will be released to the concerned FPC/VFC as per the stipulated conditions. The FPC/VFC would be expected to maintain vigil against any illicit felling as also to perform other appropriate responsibilities, assigned to them, were the Committee fails to discharge these functions properly, the amount may be forfeited.

9. (ii) In the case of permits issued under the main felling programme, the permit holder will be responsible for planting five plants per tree felled. This number would include any green stump of a coppicing species like khair, Eucalyptus etc and such cased the no. of fresh plants required to be planted will be reduced correspondingly. For calculating the number of fresh saplings to be planted, landowners will be given the benefit of any earlier plantation they may have done up to 2 year prior to the issue of the permit. In case of subsidiary felling the permit holders will be required to plant sapling equivalent to the no. of trees being harvested under sub clause 3 (b) & 3 (d) of the felling policy. Such trees could be planted one planting season prior to or after the period of grant of permit for felling. The permit holder will get it certified from FPC/JFMC/Range officer that plantation has been done successfully to enable him to become eligible for the release security.

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 77

(b) Procedure for Issuing Felling Permits for sale of Trees under Main Felling Programme from non- cultivated Private Forest Areas Notified under Section 4 & 5 of PLPA.

Following is the procedure for issuing Felling Permits for sale of trees under Main Felling programme from un-cultivated private forest Areas notified under sec 4&5 of PLPA-

1. The applications for felling of trees will be received from the land owner on prescribed Performa (Annexure-8A). Each application should be accompanied with an affidavit (Annexure-8B) about the ownership of the land duly signed by the owner/owners and also jamabandi giving the khasra no. of the area from which trees are to be felled. The status of the land such as cultivated or uncultivated should also be given. 2. Normally, the application should reach the Divisional Forest Officer by 31st August during the year in which the area is due for felling. The receipt and processing of applications would however be in accordance with the provisions of the Felling Policy 3. All applications received in the office of the DFO will be entered date-wise in a separate register, which will be closed on 31st August. Report about the number of applications received will be sent to the Conservator of Forests by 10th September. 4. (i)The marking will be done in the same order in which the applications were received. Any deviation in this regard will be recorded and reported by the DFO to CF. (ii) The Forest Guard/ Range Assistant will carry out the marking as per the marking rules. (iii)Members of JFM/FPC will assist the field staff in the marking operations. For rendering such assistance, members of FPC will be duly trained by the field staff of the Forest Department.

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 78

(iv)Range Officer will physically check 50% of actual marking of every permit and the Dy. DFO/ DFO will check 10% of the actual marking. (v)The Dy. DFO and Range Officer will check 100%marking from the point of view of technical correctness as per marking rules and record a certificate to this extent on marking list. 5. Before issuing a permit the DFO will record a certificate that the

requirement of the marking rules, the policy of the Govt. and other

related instructions have been met. The DFO permit (Annexure-

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 82

(d) Felling Rules

1. The felling of trees from any forest area notified under section 4 of PLPA, 1900 will be done as per the management plan approved by the competent authority in accordance with the prescribed regulations and as per stipulated terms and conditions.

2. As far as possible the main felling under 5 year felling cycle should be carried outbetween post-monsoon and spring season so that coppice shoots sprouts to replace the harvested trees.

3. The Range Officer will intimate to the DFO the date of commencement of the main felling. The DFO will send a report in this regard to the CF. the felling will be checked / supervised regularly by the field staff with assistance of FPC/JFMC. The Forest Guard should invariably check the felling daily and maintain the felling register correctly. The Forester should check the felling at least twice a week and the Range Officer once a week. The Dy. DFO and DFO should check the felling at least once fortnightly and monthly respectively. All the officials/officers should record their observations on the felling register.

4. All felled material should be hammer marked. The stumps of all the felled trees shall also be hammer marked and khudan number should be carved on them. Stumps should be properly marked showing marking number and the year of felling. In order to reduce soil erosion, facilitate subsequent checking and encourage coppicing, stumps of trees will not be uprooted except in the case of cultivated fields.

5. The felled material will be first stacked in designated temporary depots and will be checked as per the felling register. After

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 83

8.4.1. B Revised Felling Policy for Private Forests

Keeping in view the numerous reprersentations of the gram Panchyat Punjab Govt vide Letter No-8083 dated 20-10-2011 included para 9(i) (a) & 9(i) (b) after para 9 of the felling policy issued vide Punjab Govt Letter No-39/2/2000-FT-3/SPL dated 25- 09-2007 which are given as under:-

9(i) (a) Provided that in case of Panchayat Forest lands the permit for felling will be issued by the concerned Divisional Forest Officer in two stages. In the first stage an “in principle permit” will be issued after fulfilment of all the requirements by the concerned Panchayat

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 84

as stipulated for issue of the permit in the felling policy clause 5(i) or 6(i) (as the case may be). The depositing of amount of security etc stipulated in Para 9(i) above will not require to be complied with at this stage of issuance of in-principal permit. After the issue of in- principal permit, the concerned Panchayat can immediately proceed with the auction of the marked trees. For felling of trees “final felling permit” however, will be issued by the DFO only after the receipt of the security and other amount stipulated in Para 9(i) above, has been deposited with the DFO along with marking fee of Rs. 3 per tree prescribed in State Government letter No. 39/80/99/FT-III/6977 dated 2.6.99 and processing fee prescribed in letter No. 39/90/08-Forest-3/1451 dated 12.2.2009 or in case of any amendment to the fees prescribed by above letters as per subsequent amendments to these two instructions issued by the Government from time to time in no case the mentioned security etc., marking fee or processing fee will be deposited by the Panchayat later than 31st January of the concerned year with the DFO as the last date for issue of “Final felling permit” will be the 31st January, of the concerned year.

9(i) (b) Provided further that where the marking of trees has been done in a village Panchayat land, the concerned Panchayat will receive the amount of 5% of security payable as per the provisions in Para 9(i) above and accordingly the concerned Panchayat will be responsible for performing the functions and obligations of the Forest Committee in that area as per the provisions laid down in the Felling Policy.

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 85

8.4.1.C Revised Felling Policy for MUSTARKA MALKAN LAND

The Government futherrevised the felling Policy in the interest of public at largevide letter No. 39/2/200/-forest-3/400931/1 Chandigarh dated 27.01.2015.

a) If minimum 50 percent of the share holders of the area give their consent and authorize toany one share holder to obtain the permit for felling of trees of that area of MustarkaMalkanonly then permit can be issued to any authorized share holder. b) In case of Mustarka Malkan area on receiving the application as mentioned above, the marking of the whole area will be done by the department and the trees will be numberedand the volume of the trees will be 'divided into three categories i.e. Khair, Shisham, Miscellaneous species. c) The proportion of the volume as per marking list prepared (Khair, Shisham, miscellaneous species wise) will only be permitted as per the percentage of shares of applicant for the purpose of cutting of trees, and to allow felling starting from serial no. 1 of trees marked up to the number & volume of share to be felled. d) Keeping in view the interest of the share holders who could not apply, the trees which were marked earlier but not felled those will be retained in the forest and during next felling cycle also if only old share holders apply for the permit in that case it will not be permitted to cut down the trees which are the share of those who had not applied earlier. For thepurpose of marking and issue of permit the process will be followed as per serial no. 2 and3. e) If from the remaining owners who could not apply earlier apply for permit for next felling cycle, will be issued permit serial wise from retained trees of earlier felling (the serial no. up to which the trees

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 86

have been felled following that) the felling will be allowed to only as per the proportional share of volume of wood of the share holders. f) Because there is a huge chunk of land and number of trees under the joint ownership (MustarkaMalkan). Keeping in view the availability of staff and for proper control onfelling in a planned manner, the permit will be issued in the units of one thousand treeseach instead of single permit of all available trees, meaning that after the cutting anddisposal of one thousand trees the permit for next one thousand trees will be issued. g) If any illegal felling of trees found in the permit area or if there is any fraud of originalityof ownership or of their signatures, then the responsibility required legal action and financial loss will be of that particular share holder who has applied for the permit onbehalf of other share holders. h) As per the existing procedure, the marking fees of all trees of whole area will be collectedfrom the applicant share holders and security will be collected only against number/volumeof trees for permit is being issued. i) Responsibility of protection of retained trees as per Para 'd' above, will be of ForestDepartment and JFMC of that village. 50% share of security amountcollected forJFMC against the permits as per Para no. 'h', will be used for protection and maintenance offorest and rest 50% amount will be used for numbering and marking with white band on the retained trees six monthly keeping these mark fresh. j) It is clarified that permit can be issued to the society which is formed by owners/shareholders to maintain and protect the forest as per felling policy of 25.09.2007 and registeredunder societies Act with all the office bearers elected as per societies Act. k) Besides this at many places there are unauthorized possessions in the permit area, in suchcases the permit should not be issued to

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 87

individual possession holder but issue the permit tojoint share holders of that forest area. l) In the case of joint owners of the forest area the authorization to issue the permit is withDivisional Forest Officer, but before issuing the permit Divisional Forest Officer will haveto obtain the consent of their controlling officer. m) Because in such case sometimes it takes a lot of time to issue the permit that is why the last date to issue the permit is extended for one month i.e. from 31, December to 31 January of next year.

8.5 Felling Programme

Based on above felling policy, the felling programme specific to each division is prepared which is approved by Principal Chief Conservator of Forests, Punjab.

This Felling programme may include 2-3 felling cycles each of 5 years and it specifies villages covered under PLPA areas which are open for felling during a particular year.

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 89

9 Past Systems of Management

9.1 General History of the Forests

The forests in the North hills were once boasted of being one of the densest forests prior to the coming of British. The forests were under the ownership of Chieftains, which were mainly used for the purpose of game hunting. With the coming of British the local Chieftains surrendered most of the lands to the local Zamindars. The lands were, thus, cleared of jungles to make way for agriculture. Most of carnivores lost their habitat, fell prey to the bullets and thus dwindled in number. Herbivores soon outnumbered the carnivores. All this caused massive soil erosion and hill-torrents rendered cultivable fields into non arable barren lands. In 1900 the Government Promulgated Punjab Land Preservation Act, in which Deputy Commissioner was made main in charge for over- seeing the felling of trees etc. from these lands. Lands were basically demarcated into section 4 & 5. A management system was also designed for these lands as per the Act. From 1934 onwards these lands were gradually given to forest department and by 1939 complete control of Hoshiarpur Shiwaliks were transferredto Forest Department. In 1947, when the country was partitioned, lots of Muslim land owners left for Pakistan. Post 1950, the treatment of the hills through afforestation and other conservation measures has helped to bring a lot of stability. But there is a need for constant vigil and continued regulatory control failing which efforts of last many decades could be undone within no time.

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 90

9.2 Past System of Management and their results

9.2.1 Forest Management from 1900-1939

During this period PLPA was implemented and lands were classified as closed areas under of PLPA Section 4 & 5. Section 4 areas constituted the lands with gentle slope or slightly undulating. In these lands the trees could be felled for bonafide domestic and agricultural use and grazing normally allowed except by camels, goats and sheep. The trees could only be sold with the permission of civil authority. Restrictions under Section 5 were more rigorous. In these areasno grazing and no felling of trees is allowed even for bonafide use. Trees were only made available to local population by permit from civil authorities. No improvement works could be carried out.

PLPA was promulgated in 1900, then rules under this act were framed and accordingly these areas were managed. This was the time of British and they were too much conscious for preserving this fragile tract. British Officers controlling these areas took keen interest in various soil conservation measures in the area. R. Maclkgan Gorrie D.Sc. was prominent and pioneer in this context. His book on the subject “Soil and Water Conservationin Punjab” is considered a pioneer work in the subject. He practiced all these formulations in the field of Soil Conservation in North Hills. As early as 1930, works on soil conservation were started by Forest Department which included afforestation, choe training, contour trenching, gully plugging, check dams, baggar planting etc.

9.2.2 Forest Management 1939 onwards

After 1939 control of these areas was transferred to Forest Department from the Civil Authorities. In year 1947 there was partition and lot of Muslim land owners of the area left for Pakistan. In

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 91 independent India planning was started in all spheres. Fifties to seventies was the period when State Government Policies controlled and preserved these areas. After that KWADP (Kandi Watershed Area Development Project) was started and various works were done.

Afforestation & Soil Conservation Works have been taken up extensively in these areas from 1980 onwards under various centrally sponsored schemes, State schemes and under externally aided schemes such as IWDP (Phase-I), IWDP (Phase-II) and JBIC Project.

Keeping in view the last management plan of this division the felling programme has been redesigned. There was extreme workload in some years, but some years were totally free of workload for ten years felling. In this management plan the complete rationalization has been done to divide the workload equally in the whole ten years on five years cycle basis.

9.3 Special works of improvement undertaken

Two important projects which were implemented in these areas to improve its ecological health were the World Bank funded IWDP project 1991-92 to 2003-04 and the Japan Bank for International Co-operation funded Punjab Afforestation Project (1997-98 to 2005-06).

Under the J.B.I.C aided Project plantations under enrichment /silvi- pasture treatment have been carried out since 1998-99 to 2005-2006. Besides plantation works , Soil Conservation works such as Brushwood , Dry stone masonry check dam, Crate wire structures , Live hedge, Slip Control Measures / Land slide control measures have been under taken on a large scale in all the villages. FPC’s/ JFMC’s have been constituted in all the villages closed under section 4 of PLPA, 1900 and self help groups have been formed almost in all the villages. The

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 92

plantation works , soil conservation works and the involvement of the local communities in forest conservation and forest protection have resulted in improved health of the forests. The impact of these works is visible in fields in the shape of arresting soil erosion and moisture conservation and improvement of soil regimes.

9.4 Review of Previous Management plan (2007-08 to 2016-17)

During the period of last management plan approximately  3.30 Lac plants have been planted in 330 hectares.  79728 trees having volume 10272.96 M3 have been felled from these forests of 30 villages covered under this management plan.  Vegetative live hedge, Dry Stone Check Dam, Cement Masonry Structures and Vegetative Shrub Barriers have been constructed to prevent Soil Erosion and Moisture Conservation. All these works undertaken have been resulted in productivity enhancement of these forests as well as socio-economic welfare of the area. In absence of National Working Plan Code 2014, previous management plan was not written in present format, but it documented the facts about the area and provided prescriptions on the lines of policy available for management of these forests. This management plan has 10052.14 hectare private/panchyat area covering 30 villages closed under sec 4 & 5 of PLPA. There is no any major deviation from prescriptions of previous and present management plan.

CHAPTER •Basis of X Proposals

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 104

10 Basis of Proposals

10.1 Objectives of management

The most important objective of Management Plan is to maintain ecological balance with the main aim to check degradation of forests and increase productivity of the forests. Besides the aforesaid primary aim, the secondary objectives are:

(a) To reverse degradation of ecologically fragile ecosystem of the Shiwaliks.

(b) To conserve soil and sub soil moisture and ground water recharge.

(c) To enhance productivity of the closed forest areas through qualitative and quantitative improvements in the growing stock by undertaking afforestation and other conservation works.

(d) To ensure active community participation in scientific management of these forests by regulating the felling and other silvicultural operations.

(e) To create awareness and eco-education through Ecotourism and other measures.

(f) To improve biodiversity and the wildlife habitat and management of invasive weeds.

(g) To encourage production forestry by means of scientific harvesting and sale of timber.

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 105

10.2 Consultation and Expectation at Local level

The common demands raised by the stakeholders/VFCs/ Panchayat of the villages in the discussions held in the several range level meetings are as follows:

1. Plantation on large scale must be taken up by Department to enhance forest and tree cover. 2. Bamboo and other Non Timber Forest produce i.e. bhabhar and other grasses be allowed to be harvested without any hindrance. 3. There should be no permits required for harvesting bamboo and other agroforestry species such as Eucalyptus, Poplar, Drek, Toot, and Siris. 4. Alternative fuel facilities such as gas connection, solar devices and improved chulahs etc. to be provided in the PLPA notified areas. 5. Restrictions must be eased for harvesting dead/dry trees throughout the year for social religious functions and domestic purposes. 6. The benefits accrued from notified areas under PLPA through felling of trees, collection of NTFPs and other by-products should be given to the landowners or stakeholders. The same must continue to be 100% appropriated to the land owners at present. 7. Seasonal employment should be provided to the villagers through various schemes implemented by the forest department. Employment has been created in various departmental projects/scheme for the benefit of local communities to be continued in future. 8. Preference should be given to the local people for all capacity building and training programs.

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 106

9. Women and educated children/youth in local villages should be given training as per the local needs for generating gainful employment. 10. The consent of the local people should be taken before developing any private forest area as an Eco- Tourism site.

Most of these demands are already being taken care under various schemes and policies. The approach of department has been to maximize people's participation and involvement and to facilitate them in scientific management of these forests.

Based on the outcome of the meetings held, some separate resolutions have been passed by the village Panchayat/VFCs. By involving the local people and stakeholders, the forest department has prepared micro plans for specified villages in each range covered under the Green India Mission scheme in 2016-17.

10.3 Method of treatment to be adopted 10.3.1 Plantation works The different models for plantation works will be adopted as per site of the plantation areas. The following models of plantation which are approved under PUNCAMPA are being adopted in plain areas, will be selected.

10.3.1.1 Enrichment Model

The enrichment planting model has been implemented in Shiwalik hills in those areas where the vegetation cover is sparse. The objective is to improve the stocking/density of the existing forests. To fill up the blanks, mostly species which are native to the area are being planted. These include Acaciacatechu, Acacianilotica, Holopteliaintegrifolia, Dalbergiasisoo, Embilicaofficinalis, Mangiferaindica etc. This species mix is also ideal for meeting the needs of the local people for timber and other

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 107

Non TimberForest Produce. Planting is done using continuous or staggered trenches to trap the runoff water. On the berms of the trenches, planting of the native Baggar grass in tuffs is done. The planting of Baggar grass on the berms also adds to the green cover which is essential for in-situ moisture conservation.

For earth work purposes in enrichment model, trench method is adopted in these areas. Advance earth work is done in the month of February-March and plantation is done in the month of July-August (monsoon season). Khair, Bamboo, Shisham, Subabul etc. species are used for plantation in these hilly areas. Under this model 500 plants are planted in one hectare area. The details of cost estimate and items of works are given as ANNEXURE -10 A

10.3.1.2 Degraded Model with Staggered Trench & Pit

Most of the areas of Govt./Panchayat/Community lands fall under various stages of degradation category which are devoid of dense cover. These areas have become degraded due to anthropogenic causes or biotic interferences or as a consequence of natural and climate factors. Rehabilitation of these areas through plantation of suitable species is essential to put them to productive use while increasing the green cover of the State. Species like Acacia nilotica, Dalbergiasissoo, Meliaazederach, Ailanthusexcela, Cedrella tuna, Morus alba, Tectona grandis, Azaderachta indica, etc. are planted under this component.

In this method Advance earth work is done in the month of February-March at spacing of 3 meter x 3 meter and plantation is done in the month of July-August (monsoon season). Under this model 1000 plants are planted in one hectare. The details of cost estimate and items of works are given as ANNEXURE -10 B

10.3.1.3 Assisted Natural Regeneration (ANR)

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 108

Under this model areas of Natural Regeneration and old plantations are taken for plantation. To supplement these areas 250 plants per hectare are planted in blank patches under this model. Existing natural plants are also adopted. The details of cost estimate and items of works are given as ANNEXURE -10 C

10.3.1.4 Bamboo Planting and Working

The forest area of this tract also has unique stock of bamboo brakes in the otherwise dry deciduous scrubs forest of shiwalik hills. Bamboo is a valuable species both from the soil conservation point of view as well as for its role in improving the local economy. Cleaning, tending and protection operations need to be taken up in these forests to rejuvenate the natural growth in clumps.

10.3.2 Soil Conservation Works

As mentioned earlier, the major part of degraded lands in the State is located in the shiwalik belt, which is an ecologically fragile area. Extensive soil and moisture conservation works like brush wood and dry stone check dams, continuous live hedges, vegetative spurs and other masonry structures have been undertaken in this tract during the previous management plan period to check the process of erosion, for stabilization of gullies and stream banks and for improvement of percolation to augment the water regime. These structures especially in newly raised plantation areas, supplement the in-situ moisture conservation, which is essential for better plant growth.

10.3.2.1 Vegetative methods

The vegetative soil conservation works includes brushwood check dams, live hedges and double line vegetative spurs etc.

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 109

 Brushwood check dams have been established across the gullies to prevent their further extension. These structures are raised by fixing poles of 1.5 metre height in two lines, 1 metre apart. The intervening space is filled up with brushwood and bound by ropes. The poles used for the construction of the check dams are of species which can sprout easily so that, once established, the structure can sustain itself.  Similarly, continuous live hedges are raised along the stream banks to prevent them from being eroded during torrential flows of water. In this case also species such as Ipomoea, Vitexnegundo, Arundo donax etc. which are capable of vegetative propagation are used.  Double line vegetative spurs, identical in composition to the brushwood check dams are established at acute angles to the stream banks to deflect the fast flow of water and to reduce its erosive power. 10.3.2.2 Engineering measures

The main engineering measures for soil conservation include dry stone check dams, crate wire spurs and silt observation points.

 Dry Stone check dams are required to supplement the brushwood check dams in the initial stages to ease to velocity of the water in the gullies along the slopes. These structures are raised in series to act as steps in the way of the fast flowing water to minimize its eroding impact. The establishment of such structure is found to be very effective in reducing soil erosion in treated areas of all the five forest division of the shiwalik belt. Priority in the soil conservation works to be implemented in the identified watershed is to be given to the critical areas near habitations so that maximum benefit of this works goes to the local people.

10.4 Period of Management Plan and necessity for Intermediate Revision

Period of Management Plan will be 10 years starting from 2017-18 to 2026-27 and shall be deemed to have come in force w. e. f. date of approval. Need based Mid-Term Review can be under taken after the expiry of 5 years from the commencement of this management plan.

CHAPTER •Management XI Prescriptions

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 112

11. Management Prescriptions

11.1 General characteristics of Vegetation

Due to deterioration and depletion of forests, crisis of timber, fire wood and other forest produces exists in the markets and particularly the good quality timber is out of reach of the common people. Increased biotic interference especially in strip forest is a major cause of deterioration.

Presently, the village lands closed under section 4 of PLPA, 1900 is being taken upfor plantation under the on-going schemes of the department. In these areas soil conservation works are also being taken up to control soil erosion and to conserve moisture for better growth of vegetation. From the funding obtained under JBIC aided Punjab Afforestation Project, private/panchayat/common lands of the villages havebeenplanted under enrichment planting and silvi-pasture treatments. Soil Conservation works like brushwood check dams, dry stone masonry dams, live hedges, land slide and slip control measures etc. have also been undertaken on massive scale the effect of which has resulted in the decrease of soil erosion and improvement in the soil regime due to moisture conservation .

Further more it is of paramount importance that alternative sources of income generation (livelihoods) for the people living in the vicinity of the forests be created, hence Forest Protection Committees are granted with some corpus fund for financing Self Help Groups forincome generationactivities. These Self Help Groups motivate the poor people for income generating activities like poultry, ban (rope) making, basket

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 113 making, soap making and many other activities like computer training, beauty parlor training and soft toy making etc.

11.2 Activity Specific Proposals

During this Management Plan period (2017-18 to 2026-27) Plantation works and soil conservation works shall be undertaken over areas closed under sec 4 of Punjab Land Preservation Act, 1900 in S.A.S. Nagar Forest Division. This is aimed to improve the forest cover and to prevent the soil erosion.

Besides this, Entry Point Activities, Income Generation Activities and other developmental works in these villages have proved as a tool to bring local people closer to the forest staff which shall have a positive impact on biodiversity conservation.

To achieve these objectives envisagedin the plan, the following proposals are being made:

11.2.1 Silvicultural Interventions A. Regeneration & Plantation

i. Natural Regeneration:

There is good root stock existing in some areas. Such areas with good natural regeneration will be fenced, tended and protected against the cattle damage. Special attention will be given to create and maintain fire-lines in the area to prevent and control forest-fires. FPCs/VFCs will be properly educated and involved in this regard.

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 114

ii. Artificial Regeneration :

While natural regeneration will be encouraged, artificial planting in blanks with species like Khair, Shisham, Neem, Paper Mulberry, Rajain, Siris, Drek, Amla, Su-babul, Bamboos, fruit trees etc. will be promoted by the Forest Department.

1. Eucalyptus planting will be deliberately reduced in stages in the upper reaches and resorted to only in such areas in the foot hills which are ecologically appropriate for such plantation. 2. The advanced growth of Eucalyptus and other useful species will be retained. 3. Under shade-planting of Mulberry and enrichment under partial canopy will be done through other appropriate species to improve stocking. 4. In the Chil areas fire protection measure shall be strengthened and special care be taken against forest fire in the dry season.

Plantation Programme

Plantation will be taken up in all the villages and areas are closed under section 4 of PLPA. After completion of JBIC Project, afforestation works in section 4 & 5 areas in these closed villages is being done under other project/schemes such as Green India mission etc. Conditions for some bare minimum planting by farmers in private forest land after have also been included in the felling policy.

1. Areas felled in a year shall be taken up for plantation in the following year. 2. As soon as the felling is over, brushwood will be collected at suitable places far away from the standards and disposed off. The shrubs and tall grasses shall be cleared.

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 115

3. Areas in which sufficient density of coppice is obtainable shall not be taken up for plantation. In these areas, protection measures including fencing shall be taken. Eucalyptus coppice shall be supplemented by planting polythene bag/root trainer raised plants of eucalyptus. 4. The planting distance shall ordinarily be 3 meter from plant to plant in a row and each row 3 meter apart (3m x 3m). However this may be modified as per the requirements of the species and the locality factors and also to facilitate harrowing by tractors in between the rows. 5. The planting shall start after the first shower of monsoon and completed as early as possible. Late planting or winter planting should be avoided as far as possible. 6. Good healthy plants raised in polythene bags or root trainers should be used for plantation. Arrangements for irrigation must be done beforehand. At least two irrigations during the months of summer dry season and once during the dry winter months are essential. 7. In case of Shisham, the best method is to prepare one year old entire plants by raising root-shoot cuttings. Efforts should be made to increase the stocking of Shisham by planting, tending, the natural root-suckers 8. The failures should be beaten up during the same planting season. The planting stock used for beating up should consist of healthy and vigorous plants. 9. Frost tender species like neem, kikar, teak etc. if not planted under shade, shall be covered during the winter months to protect from the damages of frost. 10. In low lying areas, planting can be done after the flood waters have receded or by planting on mounds and ridges constructed for the purpose.

Detailed plantation programme to be taken up year-wise is given as ANNEXURE 11A. To meet the target of the plantation in the division, nurseries are sources of plants. There are a large number of nurseries in this division, centrally located to meet the demand of plants for planting in Govt. areas & private lands. Efforts should be made to raise new species according to the demand of public. Seeds for such plants should be collected from genetically superior, healthy and vigorously growing trees for raising good quality planting stock. For this purpose plus trees of various species should be marked and its record should be maintained. Latest techniques like mist chamber and green houses should be adopted. List of Nurseries of S.A.S.Nagar Forest Division is given at ANNEXURE 11B.

The above felling programme specifies the villages which are open for felling during a particular year under this management plan period. These fellings would be permitted as per the request of the land owners in accordance with the approved felling programme. As the permission for felling is subject to request of eligble land owners and silviculturally available trees as per marking and felling rules, there is no fixed volume or yield which could be estimated beforehand.

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 120

C. Monitoring of Plantation done in lieu of felling

To sustain the requirements of fuel, fodder and timber of the growing population and to reduce the pressure on Govt. forest areas, it is prescribed i) To plant at least 5 times the number of saplings of the felled trees in the same land from which the trees have been felled by the owner. ii) To ensure that the saplings are planted while issuing the export permit of felled material, the farmer should either deposit the amount of the price of the saplings or get issued the permit for sale of saplings from the concerned Range Officer. iii) In the year following the felling, the Range Officer should visit the area to ascertain that the seedlings are actually planted and will also provide the technical assistance to the farmers. iv) Security deposits of land owners should be released only after the Range Officer issues a certificate that seedlings have been purchased and actually been planted in the area from where felling was carried out. v) The Forest staff should provide assistance to the land owners in planning plantation activities if requested.

Keeping in view the decreasing trend of tree cover in the area, efforts should be made to bring these areas, under some Government assisted planting programme so that the planted areas are maintained for a couple of years after planting.

11.2.2 Subsidiary Silvi-culture Operations A. Petty felling and emergent cleanings

Petty felling and clearings for research and nurseries will be allowed in the area by the concerned Conservator of Forests.

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 121

These felling can be done regardless of 5 year felling programme for the benefit of the forests.

B. Ground storey management

In view of increasing density of invasive weeds like Lantana and Parthenium (congress grass), it is important to manage crop composition of ground story with objectives to decrease the domain of invasive weeds and to change the crop composition of ground story by replacing invasive weeds with traditionally occurring/cultivated ground story valuable spp.

1. Supplementary artificial regeneration with suitable valuable spp will also be useful for soil and moisture regime.For better silvicultural substitution of Lantana by other appropriate species site specific planning and treatment should be done. 2. Soil beds will be prepared along contours and planted with tufts or seed broadcasting. 3. Sowing of grasses will be done in areas near habitations. Suitable fodder spp.which can compete with Lantana include Napier grass, Guinea grass, Desmanthus, Cenchrusspp. etc. 4. Other appropriate spp. including lemon grass, citronella, palmarosa, vetiver and medicinal herbs like chasku, kalmegh, ashwagandha, tulsi, agave, aloe-vera, kaunch etc. could also be planted as a part of forest floor/understory management. 5. Bamboo, Subabul and other tree species may also be planted in close spacing for suppression of Lantana.

C. Lantana management/Lantana Harvest Rules

Lantana management is a critical issue which needs attention in areas closed under PLPA. Being an invasive alien weed which has covered very large tracts of Shiwalik in last few decades the problem needs to be

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 122 addressed urgently. Therefore for Lantana removal/harvest from any site following rules are made:

1. Lantana eradication/removal has to be done carefully. Therefore Lantana will not be burnt for clearing of site for plantation or others purposes. 2. People can harvest Lantana for bonafide use, such as fuel wood and other household needs. 3. Furniture making from lantana may also be encouraged by providing training and establishing marketing linkages though JFM Committees. The cut material of lantana may be converted in to briquettes for use as fuel in industries/furnaces. 4. Normally, Lantana would be cut back close to the ground and not uprooted or stubbed in large areasin order to prevent soil erosion. Uprooting or stubbing in smaller areas may be allowed in strips for undertaking earthwork for planting. 5. Lantana can be stubbed in agricultural fields where the land is level and there is no danger of erosion. Lantana can also be cut /stubbed in a careful manner from such areas which are required for earthwork for plantation and improving the quality of ground cover. In such areas, Lantana stubbing will be confined only to trench areas for plantation or soil bed areas in case of ssowing/planting of grasses or herbaceous or other sspeccies. 6. Heavy machinery will not be allowed to be used to harvest Lantana. 7. No large scale Lantana cutting/stubbing will be done during fire season (16 April-15July) except as a part of advance earthwork for planting or bona fide local use from private forests. 8. Total cutting/clearance of Lantana from a site will be confined to level areas or stable and gentle slopes only. But large stretches would not be cleared in one go. 9. For slopes which are moderate to steep or otherwise refractory in nature, only line cutting of Lantana will be done during site

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 123

preparation. For Soil stability on such slopes Lantana will be removed in alternate lines/patches to ensure that soil is not fully exposed to the danger of any significant accelerated soil loss/erosion. Line cutting of Lantana/weeds will be carried with strip width up to 4 m and strip interval being 4-5 m. 10. For any commercial use/ transportations of Lantana compressors etc. can be temporarily installed for making Lantana bio mass transportable.

D. Cutting of Timber/ Fuel-wood for domestic use

The application for cutting of timber/fuel wood for domestic use (marriage, cremation etc.) from private areas under section 4 of PLPA 1900 will be entertained by the Forest Guard of that area.

1. The application will be duly recommended by the Sarpanch/JFM Committee of the village.

2. After proper verification, if the case is found genuine, the Forest Guard will recommend the application for permission along with species and girth at breast height.

3. Forester will submit the application in Range office after his recommendation.

4. Range Officer will enter the application in his office domestic use register and maintained village wise along with species, girth and volume and will allow the applicant to cut the Timber/Fuel wood for domestic use.

5. Such decision can also be taken in JFM Committee meeting by the concerned Range Officer.

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 124

11.2.3 Soil & Moisture Conservation

The basic thrust will be to improve the vegetative cover on the Shiwalik hills. The endeavour will be to do the extensive soil conservation works on micro-watershed basis. The soil conservation works will include following measures

a) Vegetative barriers in the upper reaches.

b) Loose stone check dams in the middle stage.

c) Crate wire/Gabion check dams.

d) Stone masonry structures in the lower reaches to check torrents.

Dry stone check dams are required to supplement the brushwood check dams in the initial stages to decrease the velocity of the water in the gullies along the slopes. These structures have been raised in series to act as steps in the way of the fast flowing water to minimize its eroding impact. The establishment of such structures has been found to be very effective in reducing soil erosion in treated areas of all Shiwalik belt of the state. Other measures include choe training, contour trenching, contour bunding etc.

Precautions will be taken to minimize the destabilization of soil and vegetation. Blank patches and areas prone to sheet, slip and gully erosion will be taken up for soil conservation works on priority basis.

1. Baggar grass and other soil binding grasses shrubs and herbs will be planted along the choe beds, gullies and on the berms of trenches.

2. The areas of natural regeneration will be fenced and protected against the cattle damage.

3. The natural regeneration will be encouraged; however, artificial planting should be done in blanks with species like Khair, Shisham,

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 125

Neem, Rajain, Siris, Drek, Amla, Su-babool, Bamboos, tamarind etc.

4. Eucalyptus planting will be reduced in stages in the upper reaches and resorted to in the foot hills which are ecologically suitable for such plantation. The advanced growth of suitable species will be retained.

The above works will be taken up as per availability of funds under various schemes. Detail of Soil-moisture conservation works to be taken up year-wise is given as ANNEXURE 11D.

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 126

11.2.4 Associated Miscellaneous Regulations A. NTFP

There is wide scope of planting, augmentation, harvest and marketing of NTFP. Apart from this various income generating activities (IGA’s) can be promoted in this area, especially forest biomass based IGAs depending upon the availability of NTPF. Following are the important produces having ample potential for value addition or marketing:- i) Amla (Emblica officianlis) ii) Desi Mango (Mangifera indica) iii) Neem (Azadirachta indica) iv) Bhabbar (Eulaliopsis binata) v) Amaltas (Cassia fistula) vi) Giloe (Tinospora cordiforlia) vii) Gandla (Murraya koenigii) viii) Basuti (Adhatoda vasica) Similarly other useful species like bamboo, shrubs, herbs and grasses especially the ones that can silviculturally compete well with invasive weeds like lantana and have scope for value addition and potential market linkages, will also be encouraged.

B. Bamboo

The bamboo clumps whether occurring naturally or planted artificially will be worked under improvement cum felling system on triennial cycle. Marking of Bamboos will be done clump wise. Cutting of Bamboos will be subject to the following restrictions.

1. The old culms left must be evenly distributed over the clump. 2. Out of the culms which are selected for removal, the older ones should be removed first. 3. The young shoots (Manus and Chals) must be provided with adequate sufficient support by retention of sufficient number of

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 127

older bamboos uniformly distributed particularly on the downhill side. 4. All dead, dry and malformed Bamboos will be removed. 5. Bamboos on the periphery of the clump will not be cut. Cutting will be done with sharp edged tools and six inches above the ground. 6. Cutting will be done by following horse shoe method.The cut should be in slanting manner so that the rain water may not accumulate in the Bamboo stump.

C. Katha extraction

Katha bhatties can be permitted in the area during the felling season. The number of bhatties and their location will be decided as per direction and due permission of DFO S.A.S.Nagar, keeping in view the availability of khair timber.

During previous plan period 2011-12 to 2016-17, 14562 Khair trees having Vol 2438.30 m³ were felled; keeping this in view proportionately 151800 khair trees having vol 24582 m³ (Aprox) can be felled for extraction of katha during this plan.

D. Charcoal making

Permission for making charcoal in bhatties from from dead dry chilor chil trees cut material vide permit whose transportation is difficult shall be given by DFO S.A.S.Nagar.

The following safe-guards shall be taken while granting permit to make charcoal -

1. Charcoal bhatties not to be permitted in summer/fire season to prevent forest fires.

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 128

2. Charcoal bhatties to be located near choe beds where water is available to put-off fire in case of any mishap.

3. Any other condition as the Divisional Forest Officer, S.A.S.Nagar forest division may deem fit.

E. Medicinal Plants cultivation

Many medicinal plants are found naturally in the S.A.S.Nagar part of the Shiwaliks.

A comprehensive list of 120 medicinal plants has been prepared by the Punjab State Council of Science and technology under a study conducted on the biodiversity in the Shivaliks ecosystem of Punjab. This potential is to be suitably enhanced and explored and utilised.

Potential also exists in the field of ex-situ cultivation of appropriate medicinal plants in the agricultural fields of the farmers especially when the National Medicinal Plants Board is providing financial assistance to the tune of 30% for ex-situ cultivation of medicinal plants.

For in-situ conservation of medicinal plants some management interventions like weed control and lantana removal/harvest are to be undertaken. Besides that some fragile area needs to be closed to prevent grazing and illegal removal of medicinal plants.

11.2.5 JFM and Eco-tourism promotion

To give adequate protection to the existing forest resources in the division through effective people’s participation and to maintain and improve the quality of the environment, it is imperative to involve people not only in protection but management of these area, so that the existing vegetation/tree cover could be maintained and expanded for the conservation and improvement of the environment and for the better living conditions for human beings. This will be done with an aim to-

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 129

1. To reduce the pressure on the forests by diverting the pressure with the alternative sources of energy. 2. To manage the forests in such a way that there is effective sharing of usufructs to the people in a sustainable manner. 3. To create awareness among the people about the importance of the forest resources/tree covers for a better future of humanity. 4. Overall socioeconomic development of the forest fringe areas.

Following are the prescriptions in this section for promotion of JFM related activities-

A. Proposals for Cultivated / Habitation / Institutional Lands

Arable lands constitute about 40% of the area notified under PLPA, 1900. Being mostly rain-fed areas, arable areas yield mostly depend upon rains. Now there is a thrust of planting of improved varieties of fruit plants on these and adjoining hilly areas, so that income of the local inhabitants can be increased. It is important to obtain people’s participation by addressing their genuine needs for betterment of these arable areas. As already envisaged in chapter 7.1, involvement of people representing all stake holders is importance for longterm conservation of the area through community participation and to generate alternative source of income, works such as following will be allowed in these arable areas.

1. Installation of tube well including electricity lines and small schemes for irrigation and drinking water for the local community stakeholders. 2. Laying of underground water pipes for irrigation/other uses. 3. Improvement of such lands enhancing efficiency of life saving irrigation for optimizing yields of the crops and curtail wastage of water.

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 130

4. Construction of dwelling units for livelihood needs of local community and for carrying out the bona fide agricultural activities by the local population and for meeting other livelihood needs. 5. Construction of common public services or institutions like schools, dispensary and Community Centre etc, provided they are being made under a government scheme/Programme. Private institutions or commercial activities will not be permitted in these areas without prior approval of Govt. of India, under Forest Conservation Act, 1980. 6. Felling in habitation/institutional lands will be as per rules applicable to cultivated lands.

B. Proposals for Private Lands

The following activities being beneficial for overall conservation of private forest vegetation will be permitted:-

1. Presence of feral cattle in these forest areas is having strong adverse impact therefore parts of non arable private community forest areas may be demarcated for cattle pounds and enterprise based to make organic herbicides/Pesticides & other products. Communities will be involved in this work through JFMC/FPC's. 2. Planting of improved varieties of plants. Efforts will also be made for value addition and market linkage for herbs, shrubs and tree products. 3. To drought proof the area and facilitating ground water recharge and enhance productivity from lands as well as augment farmers income and availability of fodder to reduce pressure on forest land, various small conservation and local irrigation works such as Small Dams, Cement Masonry Structures, Silt Detention Structures, Makkowal Type Structures, Microlift irrigation and renovation/construction of new ponds will be allowed with active public participation which will be beneficial for soil/water conservation as well as improving productivity and

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 131

reducing pressure on the forests. This is going to significantly improve the water regime of the area. 4. Strategically such provisions are also essential to enlist effective voluntary community participation in overall conservation activities and reduce community’s alienation which is otherwise causing tremendous drain on time and resources of the staff of Forest Department.

C. Ecotourism potential and prospects

As per the report titled Biodiversity in the Shivalik Ecosystem of Punjab prepared by the Punjab State Council of Science and Technology, S.A.S.Nagar is endowed with rich biodiversity of flora and fauna. The strategies adopted by the State Forest Department have rejuvenated the natural forests in the district. It has thus resulted in excellent scenic sites which provide a feast to the eyes of a visitor. There are good numbers of excellent nature trails which are great bird watching sites also. The communities living in these areas are generally poor and there thus exists a great potential to enhance the economic status of these people by involving them in the Community Based Ecotourism.

Local people’s interest and responsiveness prior to starting the programme at any given location will be considered. Initial emphasis should be on places where good and constructive local leadership is forth coming and forest dependency is higher. The process should provide for local people’s requirements and needs in planning, including some non- forestry developmental initiatives and programmes to be implemented by the Punjab Forest Department. There shall be regular annual review of the programme by the Forest Department, involving other stakeholders for the lessons learnt, and also to identify strengths and weaknesses so as to amend the rules and regulations to steer the course of events

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 132 towards a positive direction in the overall interest of forest conservancy and local development.

1. To serve the dual purpose enhancement of ecotourism as well socio- economic status of locals' new initiatives like Home stays, nature guides, development of nature trails, camping sites, sight seeing at riverine areas, boating etc. may be taken up. For this initial capacity building may be done by the department under various schemes.

2. There are many potential sites in the Forest Division, for example in villages Siswan, Jainty Majri and Mirzapur etc. which could be developed as camping sites for nature loving tourists. Sites which have great potential in terms of natural attraction would be taken up.

3. It is being planned to implement, community based Eco-tourism plan, on a pilot basis for one site each in two forest ranges namely; Siswan and S.A.S. Nagar.

4. Forest Department in collaboration with Forest Corporation, other government departments, corporation and local community/will facilitate creation of appropriate infrastructure for eco-tourism which blends with natural surroundings.

5. It is better to take only those sites, which have great potential in terms of natural attraction and have some pre-existing infrastructure facilities like forest rest houses, connectivity, camping site etc in and around these villages.

6. After the successful implementation, the model of these activities would be expanded/ replicated to other sites in S.A.S.Nagar Forest Division. All these activities shall be shall be aimed at raising interest and awareness level of local community and shall be aimed at biodiversity conservation.

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 133

11.2.6 Wildlife Conservation A. Scope of wildlife conservation

The main wildlife present in this area has already been listed in ANNEXURE 3 B. Althoughmanagement plan prescriptions are mainly confined to the Selection cum Improvement felling safeguarding the faunal diversity in the management plan area, by ensuring optimum wildlife habitats, special emphasis and efforts to protect faunal biodiversity will also be ensured through following interventions-

i. Provision for water holes, salt licks, appropriate fencing etc. may be allowed for wild animals in non arable areas, so that animal don’t move to habitation and farm areas. ii. Presence of stray cattle in these froest areas is having strong adverse impact on biodiversity and forest ecosystem. Therefore, part of private, community land/forest may demarcated and well marked where stray cattle can be confined for protection of regeneration and biodiversityand such areas can be appropriately fenced for the purpose. iii. Communities will be involved in these works through JMFCs. iv. Support of public especially school children becomes very significant for achieving long term conservation goals. For this schools will be involved through large scale plantation drive and wildlife awareness drive.

B. Reduction in Man-Animal Conflict:

As already mentioned that the agriculture crops are being damaged by the Wild Boar, Blue Bull, monkeys, other deer species and feral cattle To control this damage, Government has issued notification vide no. 34/4/2017-Ft-5/1050701-1 dated 24.08.2017 to issue limited hunting

S.A.S.Nagar Management plan-2017-2027 134 permits for killing of Blue bull and Wild boar where ever they are posing threats of the agricultural crop damage.For compensating the damage and loss of property/life, Govt has already issued a notification providing relief in such cases. Efforts will be made to reduce man and animal conflict and various types of measures will be tried for hostility of local population towards willd animals.
