In 1992,UN Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED) had discussed these in detail in its Agenda No. 21 and laid a lot of importance on environmental protection and conservation of its natural resources. The impacts caused by water resource developments include changes in micro climate, impact on land use, forests, agriculture, fisheries, tourism and recreation, soil erosion, variation in water table etc. The need to mitigate the adverse impacts and to ensure long terms benefits led to the concept of sustainability and environmental impact assessment analysis. In the present study, environmental impact assessment of Sone Canal Modernization Project in Bihar, India, has been done in detail and all pros and cons have been discussed for the sustainable development of command. KEY WORDS: Development, Environmental Impact Assessment, Mitigation, Sustainable etc. I. INTRODUCTION Every development activity has an impact on environment. On one hand development is necessary to enhance the quality of life; on the other hand it is equally essential to ensure that the development is sustainable. -

Uttarakhand Flash Flood
Uttarakhand Flash Flood drishtiias.com/printpdf/uttarakhand-flash-flood Why in News Recently, a glacial break in the Tapovan-Reni area of Chamoli District of Uttarakhand led to massive Flash Flood in Dhauli Ganga and Alaknanda Rivers, damaging houses and the nearby Rishiganga power project. In June 2013, flash floods in Uttarakhand wiped out settlements and took lives. Key Points Cause of Flash Flood in Uttarakhand: It occurred in river Rishi Ganga due to the falling of a portion of Nanda Devi glacier in the river which exponentially increased the volume of water. Rishiganga meets Dhauli Ganga near Raini. So Dhauli Ganga also got flooded. Major Power Projects Affected: Rishi Ganga Power Project: It is a privately owned 130MW project. Tapovan Vishnugad Hydropower Project on the Dhauliganga: It was a 520 MW run-of-river hydroelectric project being constructed on Dhauliganga River. Several other projects on the Alaknanda and Bhagirathi river basins in northwestern Uttarakhand have also been impacted by the flood. 1/4 Flash Floods: About: These are sudden surges in water levels generally during or following an intense spell of rain. These are highly localised events of short duration with a very high peak and usually have less than six hours between the occurrence of the rainfall and peak flood. The flood situation worsens in the presence of choked drainage lines or encroachments obstructing the natural flow of water. Causes: It may be caused by heavy rain associated with a severe thunderstorm, hurricane, tropical storm, or meltwater from ice or snow flowing over ice sheets or snowfields. Flash Floods can also occur due to Dam or Levee Breaks, and/or Mudslides (Debris Flow). -
