The power supply to this vast geographical area (294411 Sq. Km.), is being maintained through various load centers and approx. 2,37,3(10 C.Km. (1997) of transmission lines. The system comprises 11 Nos.of 400 KV. 33 Nos. 220 KV and 196 Nos. 132 KV Sub- stations. For further industrial growth and overall development of the State, UPSEBhas envisaged several power transmission and distribution schemes some of which shall be funded by financial lending agencies.UPSEB realizes that power transmission projects may have some unavoidable environmental and social implications. Social issues are addressed through social policy and procedures separately and environmental issues are covered in this document. UPSEB has great concern for clean environment and conservation of natural resources.This document intends to deal with the environmcntal issues associated with transmission projects so as to provide system reliability & effliciencyon one hand and cleaner, safer and healthicr environment on thc other hand. Thc Environmental Safeguards of UPSEB provides environmental framework and safeguards for transmission project of UPSI,B taking into account the policies. rules, acts and legal requirements of Government of India and Govemmcnt of U.l'.. This document identifies and provides a framework and methodology to address environmental issues of Sub-stations and lines and formulats guidelines for preparing the Environmcnt Management Pl'ans (LMlPs)for the proposed projects. This document has been prepared in-house by the 'Social and Environmental Cell" of UPSEIBand the process of preparing it included desk research on legal and institutional framework,analysis of priority issues in power transmission sector.consistency check with environmental policies of other SlBs and with operational policies of World Bank. Discussions within and outside UlSl'B were also held for giving due importance to the views / suggestions of all concerned .The provisions of this document will he implemented in all future transmission projects of the Ul'SI,II by field units responsible for construction, operation and maintenance of these projecus. 1 The l nvironmental I-rarnework and Safeguards comprises (f ten chapters. Chaptwr-I deals with introduction, Chapter -2 outlines regulatory requirements of State. Central and multilateral agencies for transmission projects. Chapter - 3 outlines UPSIll's environment policy.1rn)ject description and implementation approach is covered in Chapter-4. Chapter-5 outlines base-line soio-economic conditions of the State. Chapter - 6 deals with status of PC13'suse and disposal approach for the same. Chapter - 7 outlines analysis of alternatives. Chapter - 8 outlines Elnvironmental Impacts of transmission projects. Chapter - 9 and I(0 deal with Environment Management Plans and public awareness respectively. -z-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 2.0 P.oliCy. al and.Addo ton UPSEBundertakes itS trnsmission activities within the purviewof IndianLaws keeping in mind appropriateobligations and guidelinesof statutory and fundingagencies. UPSEB views its responsibilityunder the present legal frameworkas twofoldwith regard to their transmission/distributionprojects, fir-stly, the mandatoryrequirements under the law and, secondly, requirementswhich influence management procedures addressing envirounmental issues. Mandatoryenvironmental requirements for UPSEBtransmission/distribution works include Techno-economicclearance by CEA under Electricity(Supply)Act- 1948;Forest clearance underForest (Conservation)Act, 1980 and Forest (Conservation)Rules, 1981, clearance from Telecomdepartment and perview of Power & TelecommunicationCo-ordination Committee; provisionsand guidelinesfor safety regulationsas per IndianElectricity Rules - 1956. Mandatoryrequirements vis-A-vis Funding Agencies is an Environment Review/Assessmentas per World Bank'sOperational Policy (O.P.)4.01 and as per O.P. 4.04 and 4.36 regardingNatural Habitats and Forestry respectively.£nvironmental Impact Notification-1994 laysdown specificproject categories that requireclearance from MOI&F. Power transmissionprojects are not includedin Schedule-I of EinvironmentalImpact Assessment- 1994 , henceenvironmental clearance is not requiredfor powertransmission projects. Even as per WorldBank's Operation Policy (OP 4.()1) the transmissionprojects are classified as type B projectswhich would require limitedenvironmental analysis and EnvironmcntalManagement Plan (EMP) only. 3.0 Environmental Policy: Ul'SEB is committedto provide a clean environment/ecologyand sustainable developmentin all its developmentalactivities. All its transmission/distributionprojects are to be, therefore,carefully plannedto ensure least possible,if any, adverseenvironmental impacts. Guidelines for construction activities are framed such that these works do not damagc/disturb the environmentalhealth of the area. EnvironmentalPolicy of UPSI,Balso stipulatesthe guiding principlesto be followedduring operationand maintenancestages of projects whichensure safcty against occupationalhaymrds, electrocution, fire hazards.accidents. sound pollution, elecrincalinterferences and also ensure that cnvironmentalhealth of the arca is well maintained and, if possible,improves. The key principlesof Ul'S1,13'senvironmental policy are: - AvoidingRight of Way (ROW) through Environmentallyand Sociallysensitivc areas so as to avoid / minimize Environmental& Social Impacts. The principle of avoidanceis practiced so as to circumventenvironmentally sensitive areas during project planning stage. - Bestconstruction practices/norms are adopted to ensure minimizationof impacts in environmentallysensitive areas. Adoption of advancedTechnologies, expertise and managementtechniqucs for mitigation of any unavoidablenegative impactsarising out of its project during operationand maintenance. -3- 4.0 PMiect DaiRtion: UPSEBhas a widespread network of transmissionlines (19403ckm length). For strengtheningthe presenttnmission system so as to ensurereliable, efficient and sufricient power supply to consumers,UPSEB will undertake constructionsof new Sub-stations; installationof additionaltransformers, installation of shunt capacitors,laying of new transmissionlines, interlinking of lines of existing Sub-stations,second circuit stringing of existing transmissionlines etc.. UPSEB has also idendfiedmany schemesfor augmentingpower supply to differentzones/districts. For examining the technicalsuitability , feasibilityand

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.

SALMAN M.A. SALMAN & KISHOR UPRETY Hydro-Politics in South Asia: A Comparative Analysis of the Mahakali and the Ganges Treaties ABSTRACT The numerous problems raised by the management of water resources are currently receiving ever-greater attention from governments around the globe. These problems stem from the fact that water resourcesare qualitativelyand quantitatively limited, and that opportunities for the exploitation of these resources abound. These factors have led to an increasingneed to adopt an integratedapproach to the development of water resources. In this context, the triangularrelations between Bangladesh, India, and Nepal in South Asia posit an intriguingand unique set of circum- stances that illustrates the effect that the practices of one country can have on other surroundingcountries. India has significantly shaped theforeign economic relationsbetween India andBangladesh and India and Nepal, especially insofar as water resources develop- ment and cooperation are concerned.
  • The State, Democracy and Social Movements

    The State, Democracy and Social Movements

    The Dynamics of Conflict and Peace in Contemporary South Asia This book engages with the concept, true value, and function of democracy in South Asia against the background of real social conditions for the promotion of peaceful development in the region. In the book, the issue of peaceful social development is defined as the con- ditions under which the maintenance of social order and social development is achieved – not by violent compulsion but through the negotiation of intentions or interests among members of society. The book assesses the issue of peaceful social development and demonstrates that the maintenance of such conditions for long periods is a necessary requirement for the political, economic, and cultural development of a society and state. Chapters argue that, through the post-colo- nial historical trajectory of South Asia, it has become commonly understood that democracy is the better, if not the best, political system and value for that purpose. Additionally, the book claims that, while democratization and the deepening of democracy have been broadly discussed in the region, the peace that democracy is supposed to promote has been in serious danger, especially in the 21st century. A timely survey and re-evaluation of democracy and peaceful development in South Asia, this book will be of interest to academics in the field of South Asian Studies, Peace and Conflict Studies and Asian Politics and Security. Minoru Mio is a professor and the director of the Department of Globalization and Humanities at the National Museum of Ethnology, Japan.
