Satpara Dam Project Initial Environmental Examination CHAPTER - 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 BACKGROUND The Satpara dam multipurpose project with an installed capacity of 13.2 MW is proposed, in Northern Areas, 6 km south of Skardu city. It is located 16 km north of Deosai planes and about 3 km downstream of Satpara village. It is a natural lake formed by the glaciers having a surface area of 689 Acres. The dam has a dead storage of 38,500 acre-ft and live storage of 54,122 acre-ft. The project will generate 4.86 MW electricity from with one powerhouse and 13.2 MW with two powerhouses. The project will irrigate about 4,600 acres of land on right side of Satpara nullah and 10,400 acres of land on left side of Skardu city. The land on left side of the nullah is spread up to Hoto village just upstream of Ayub Bridge. To deliver power from the proposed powerhouse new transmission lines and improvement of existing transmission system will be required. Northern Areas of Pakistan is a land locked area with a population of 1.20 million(Census report 1998). At present more than 50% of the population (This figure is less for rural areas.) has access to electricity in their homes and many of those experience frequent load shedding, blackouts on daily basis through out the year. Economic growth in the country has severely been affected inadequate supply of power. Present domestic demand is increasing by a rate of 6 % per annum. The power demand of WAPDA system is forecast to increase at an annual average compound growth rate of 5.2 percent and 6.7 percent in case of low growth scenario and normal growth scenario respectively. -

The distribution of Bufotes latastii, a diploid green toad species, is analyzed based on field observations and literature data. 74 localities are known, although 7 ones should be confirmed. The range of B. latastii is confined to northern Pakistan, Kashmir Valley and western Ladakh in India. All records of “green toads” (“Bufo viridis”) beyond this region belong to other species, both to green toads of the genus Bufotes or to toads of the genus Duttaphrynus. B. latastii is endemic to the Western Himalaya. Its allopatric range lies between those of bisexual triploid green toads in the west and in the east. B. latastii was found at altitudes from 780 to 3200 m above sea level. Environmental niche modelling was applied to predict the potential distribution range of the species. Altitude was the variable with the highest percent contribution for the explanation of the species distribution (36 %). urn:lSid:zOobank.Org:pub:0C76EE11-5D11-4FAB-9FA9-918959833BA5 INTRODUCTION Bufotes latastii (fig. 1) iS a relatively cOmmOn green toad species which spreads in KaShmir Valley, Ladakh and adjacent regiOnS Of nOrthern India and PakiStan. -

Preliminary Results of Lithofacies, Biostratigraphy and Depositional Setting Analysis of the Chorgali Formation, Salt Range, Potwar Basin, Northern Pakistan
Preliminary results of lithofacies, biostratigraphy and depositional setting analysis of the Chorgali Formation, Salt Range, Potwar Basin, northern Pakistan Muhammad, T. Khan and Osman, Salad Hersi University of Regina, Department of Geology Summary The Chorgali Formation occurs in Kalla-Chitta area, Hazara basin, Kohat basin and Potwar basin in northern Pakistan and it is part of a very thick carbonate succession deposited in the Neo-Tethys Sea shelf. The formation conformably overlies early Eocene Margalla Hills Limestone and correlative Sakesar Limestone in the Hazara Basin and Potwar basins. The Chorgali Formation has an upper conformable boundary with late Eocene Kuldana Formation in the Hazara Basin and unconformably overlain by late Miocene Kamlial Formation in Potwar Basin. The Chorgali Formation is well exposed in the study area; five outcrop sections were studied. The formation has an average thickness of 30 m in the study area. Field and petrographic analyses of the formation led to the recognition of four lithofacies units (Lf1-Lf4). These lithofacies units are: i) Milliolid-bearing mudstone (Lf1), ii) Bioclastic wackestone (Lf2), iii) Bioclastic packstone (Lf3), iv) Bioclastic wackestone to packstone (Lf4) and Plantonic-bearing mudstone (Lf5). The sedimentary features, sedimentary textures and fossil associations of these lithofacies suggested that deposition took place in homoclinal carbonate ramp environment. In the study area, the formation deposited in a low to moderate energy, normal marine environment. The Lf1 and Lf2 represent inner ramp, Lf3 and Lf4 mid ramp and Lf5 represents outer ramp. Absence of intertidal and supratidal facies suggest a subtidal depositional environment. The formation contains several larger benthic foraminifera that are deemed to be good for age determination. -

The Sikh Religion by Macauliffe, Volume IV, Pages 293 to 295 : " Phul Was Contemporary of Guru Har Rai, the Seventh Sikh Guru
^ f • cv* cQ ** > <? LO CO PUNJ VB THE HOMELAND OF THE SIKHS together with THE SIKH MEMORANDUM to THE SAPRU CONCILIATION COMMITTEE by HARNAM SINGH 1945 Price Rs. 2/ \ > I \ / I I 1 FOREWORD The reader will find in the pages of this book a compre hensive account of the case of the Sikh community in refer ence to the political problems that confront India to-day. The besetting complexities of the situation are recognised on all hands. What strikes the Sikhs as most unfortunate is that in almost every attempt at a solution—official or non- official—so far made, their case has not been given the weight it undoubtedly deserves. This book is an attempt to put the Sikh case as clearly as possible in a helpful spirit. The book is divided into two parts. The first part of the book gives a documented narrative of the position, rights and claims of the Sikh community in the Punjab—the province of their birth and history. An account of the adjoining States, relevant to such interests, is also included. The author has examined the population figures in the light of the Census Reports and has arrived at intriguing conclusions. His views should provoke a more scientific study of the reality of Muslim claims on the Punjab on the basis of their population strength. The second part is the text of the Sikh Memorandum submitted to the Sapru Conciliation Committee. It is signed by Sikhs belonging to every school of thought in public, (social and religious life. Never before, it can be freely stated, has there been such unanimity of opinion amongst Sikhs.
