    Report Code: 001_GBP_IIT_GEN_DAT_01_Ver 1_Dec 2010 River Ganga at a Glance: Identification of Issues and Priority Actions for Restoration Report Code: 001_GBP_IIT_GEN_DAT_01_Ver 1_Dec 2010 Preface In exercise of the powers conferred by sub‐sections (1) and (3) of Section 3 of the Environment (Protection) Act, 1986 (29 of 1986), the Central Government has constituted National Ganga River Basin Authority (NGRBA) as a planning, financing, monitoring and coordinating authority for strengthening the collective efforts of the Central and State Government for effective abatement of pollution and conservation of the river Ganga. One of the important functions of the NGRBA is to prepare and implement a Ganga River Basin: Environment Management Plan (GRB EMP). A Consortium of 7 Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) has been given the responsibility of preparing Ganga River Basin: Environment Management Plan (GRB EMP) by the Ministry of Environment and Forests (MoEF), GOI, New Delhi. Memorandum of Agreement (MoA) has been signed between 7 IITs (Bombay, Delhi, Guwahati, Kanpur, Kharagpur, Madras and Roorkee) and MoEF for this purpose on July 6, 2010. This report is one of the many reports prepared by IITs to describe the strategy, information, methodology, analysis and suggestions and recommendations in developing Ganga River Basin: Environment Management Plan (GRB EMP). The overall Frame Work for documentation of GRB EMP and Indexing of Reports is presented on the inside cover page. There are two aspects to the development of GRB EMP. Dedicated people spent hours discussing concerns, issues and potential solutions to problems. This dedication leads to the preparation of reports that hope to articulate the outcome of the dialog in a way that is useful.

  • How Do They Add to the Disaster Potential in Uttarakhand?
    South Asia Network on Dams, Rivers and People Uttarakhand: Existing, under construction and proposed Hydropower Projects: How do they add to the disaster potential in Uttarakhand? As Uttarakhand faced unprecedented flood disaster and as the issue of contribution of hydropower projects in this disaster was debated, one question for which there was no clear answer is, how many hydropower projects are there in various river basins of Uttarakhand? How many of them are operating hydropower projects, how many are under construction and how many more are planned? How projects are large (over 25 MW installed capacity), small (1-25 MW) and mini-mirco (less than 1 MW installed capacity) in various basins at various stages. This document tries to give a picture of the status of various hydropower projects in various sub basins in Uttarakhand, giving a break up of projects at various stages. River Basins in Uttarakhand Entire Uttarakhand is Uttarakhand has 98 operating hydropower part of larger Ganga basin. The Ganga River is a projects (all sizes) with combined capacity trans-boundary river of India and Bangladesh. The close to 3600 MW. However, out of this 2,525 km long river rises in the western Himalayas capacity, about 1800 MW is in central sector in the Indian state of Uttarakhand, and flows south and 503 MW in private sector, making it and east through the Gangetic Plain of North India into Bangladesh, where it empties into the Bay of uncertain how much power from these Bengal. The Ganga begins at the confluence of the projects the state will get.

The Ganges, one of the largest river system of Indian subcontinent is being severely polluted by mass bathing, sewage treatment plants, factory effluents and various other human activities. In Haridwar River Ganga System comprising of River Ganga and Ganga Canal emerging out from Ganga River, both with great ritual importance among pilgrims and tourists at Haridwar, Uttarakhand, India. Here also Ganga River and Canal are day by day getting polluted due to mass bathing, washing, disposal of sewage, industrial waste and these human activities deteriorating its water quality severely. River water samples collected in all the seasons of the years 2013 and 2014 were analyzed for various water quality characteristics. Data has statistically been analysed indicating positive and negative relation among parameters. The present study revealed that major factors contributing to deterioration of water quality might be continues discharge of industrial discharge, tourism, anthropogenic and spiritual practices. Therefore, to restore the vitality and water quality of river, proper water resource planning programme should be developed. Key words: River Ganga System River Ganga Haridwar Ganga Canal Water Quality Himalayas INTRODUCTION in 1947, India had 22 million ha under irrigation.

  • Chapter-1 Introduction
    CHAPTER-1 INTRODUCTION 1.0 Background Lakhwar Project is a part of multipurpose scheme primarily a peaking power station on river Yamuna in the district of Dehradun in Uttarakhand. The scheme envisages construction of 204m high concrete dam on river Yamuna near Lohari village. The Multipurpose scheme also envisages construction of Vyasi HEP (Hathiari power station) downstream of Lakhwar HEP. The scheme also includes construction of a barrage at Katapathar about 3 Km downstream of Hathiari powerhouse station (Vyasi HEP) on river Yamuna. The inflow and stored water in Lakhwar and Vyasi reservoir after generation of power at Lakhwar underground power house and Hathiari power house will be balanced at Katapathar barrage for downstream use. As a result of regulated flow from the Katapathar barrage, it is also assessed that about 75 MU of additional energy would be generated from the existing downstream projects of Uttarakhand state such as Dhakrani, Dhalipur, Kulhal and Khara. The live storage of Lakhwar reservoir is estimated to be 330.66 MCum. The project was originally approved by planning commission with estimated cost of Rs. 140.97 crores in Jan, 1976 as multipurpose scheme. Environmental clearance was accorded to the project by MOE&F in Feb, 1987. The initial work of Lakhwar Vyasi Project was started in 1979 and three major contracts for construction of main civil works of the project were signed in July, 1987. Some construction works such as abutment stripping for Lakhwar dam, construction of 2 nos. diversion tunnels, part excavation of underground powerhouse, part excavation of tail race tunnel etc at Lakhwar site and abutment stripping for Vyasi dam, excavation of head race tunnel, diversion channel, part excavation of 1-1 surge shaft, pressure shaft, surface powerhouse, etc at Vyasi/ Hathiari site have been completed.

This is the Interim “Ganga River Basin Management Plan”. The thrust of this Plan is to relate the diverse environmental degradations occurring in the basin with their causal factors, and thereby frame a roadmap for redeeming National River Ganga Basin’s Environment. The task involved different thematic groups of experts from 7 IITs and other premier organizations identifying different causal factors and assessing their impacts on the basin to synthesize the findings and recommendations in fulfillment of the important missions identified in the Plan.
