A. Bipartite Agreement. A Bipartite agreement was drawn on 17 th January, 1976 between the Chief Ministers of Bihar and Orissa. The salient points of the Agreement is as below. The joint works consists of (a) Kharkai Dam over river Kharkai at Ichha (Jharkhand), (b) Galudih Barrage over Subarnarekha at Galudih and (c) Galudih right bank canal to feed Odisha’s share of water. Some features of Bipartite Agreement are: - Sl.

(a) all excess over 0.16 MAF in the non-monsoon flow at Galudih Barrage will be shared between Bihar and Odisha in the ratio of 3:5. (b) Till the completion of Khrkai Dam, if the share of Odisha in non-monsoon flow is less than 0.23MAF at Galudih, the shortfall will be made available from judicious operation of the Chandil reservoir. (c) There will be a Technical Committee and a Joint Control Board for regulation of the works. 4 B. Tripartite Agreement:- A tripartite Agreement was reached on 07.08.1978 between the Chief Ministers of Bihar, Odisha and West Bengal on utilization of the water resources of Subarnarekha Basin on the frame work of Bipartite Agreement. The salient additional features of the TPA are given below. Bihar Odisha West Bengal 1 Share of co-basin status on 75% 2.7 2.9 5.9 dependable yield below Kokpara Lakh Acft. LakhsAcft. Lakhs Acft.

Three co-basin states requested Govt. of India (GOI) to meet the cost of the flood moderation portion cost of the dam, which was turned down by the GOI. The share cost is to be borne by Odisha State from its F.C. budget. The %age of sharing the cost agreed between Odisha and West Bengal. Bihar does not share flood storage cost which is around 26.40 % of the cost of the entire Dam. Though clause 2.3.4 of TPA stipulates simultaneous execution of Kharkhai and Chandil Dam and Galudih Barrage along with Right Bank Canal, Kharkai Dam is lagging behind. A joint control board and Technical Committee will be formed for execution of the joint works. A joint regulation committee will be formed under the Chairmanship of CWC for effective regulation of the joint works. 5 C. Agreements between Technical Officer of Govt. of Odisha and Govt. of Bihar Further, agreement was reached on 20.2.1991, between Engineers of Bihar and Odisha on withdrawal pattern from Ichha reservoir based on the guidelines of TPA. The salient points are summarized below. Particulars. Monsoon drawal Non-monsoon drawal. 1. Drawal from 28% Drawal. In excess 72% Ichha reservoir of 28% can be made during draught years. 2.

  • Study of Water Quality of Swarnrekha River, Ranchi, Jharkhand, India
    AEGAEUM JOURNAL ISSN NO: 0776-3808 Study of water quality of Swarnrekha River, Ranchi, Jharkhand, India Suresh Kumar 1, Sujata kumari 2 1. Dr. Shyama Prasad Mukherjee University, Ranchi, Jharkhand, India 2. Ranchi University, Ranchi, Jharkhand, India Corresponding Author: [email protected] Abstract The name of river “Swarnrekha” is given after in the ancient period due to the occurrence of “gold streaks” in the river water or river sediments. The river originated from a “seepage cum underground well”, locally called “Ranichuan” at the Nagari village of the Ranchi district. It is the first river which originates from seepage well locally called “Chuan” basically a great seepage well having a catchment area. According to Hindu Mythology, it is said that this Ranichuan was carved by the lord Rama by his arrow while Sita, his wife, was feeling thirsty during the period of Ramayana. In this way, we say that the river is basically originated from the seepage water or ground water. It travels towards the south east of Ranchi to East Singhbhum to Sarikhela and finally confluence with Damodar River at cretina mouth of the river. Previously, it was very pure form of drinkable water and day by day its quality deteriorated due to the anthropogenic activities and ultimately whole stretches of the river turned into garbage field and most polluted water streams. So, now we can say the river turned from gold streak to garbage streak and not suitable for the human beings without treatment. Physical, Chemical and microbial properties of the river water from point of origin to the lower chutia is deterioted such as water is very clean at the site of origin and became gradually hazy and dirt as it crosses through the habitants or settlements.

G. GOSWAMI1 PG Deptt., Kolhan University, Chaibasa, Jharkhand, India-833202 1CSIR-National Metallurgical Laboratory, Jamshedpur, Jharkhand, India-831007 Abstract : The present investigation is aimed at assessing the amount of heavy metals and current water quality standard along the Subarnarekha river in Jharkhand. Three samples were collected along the stretches of Subarnarekha basin during the period : Jan-Dec, 2015, on the first week of every month. The concentrations Cu, Pb, Ni, Zn, Cr, Co, Sr, Cd and Fe were determined using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry for seasonal fluctuation, source apportionment and heavy metal pollution indexing. The results demonstrated that concentrations of the metals showed significant seasonality. To assess the composite influence of all the considered metals on the overall quality of the water, heavy metal pollution indices were calculated. The deterioration of water quality and enhanced concentrations of certain metals in the Subarnarekha River near industrial and mining establishments may be attributed to anthropogenic contribution from the industrial and mining activities of the area. Various physicochemical parameters like pH, TDS, EC, DO, BOD, Total Hardness, Total alkalinity sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium etc. were also analysed. Eight parameters namely pH, Dissolved Oxygen, Biochemical Oxygen Demand, Nitrate, Phosphate, Total Dissolved Solids and Faecal Colliform were considered to compute Water Quality Index (WQI) based on National Sanitation Foundation studies and discussed.
