  • B. Pre-Feasibility Report (Extracts of DPR) 1
    Water Re-circulation and Environmental Sustainability Pre-feasibility Report Project for Jog Falls, Shivamogga District Karnataka B. Pre-feasibility report (extracts of DPR) 1. Executive Summary x The proposed project is a water recirculation project by pumping 400 cusecs of water in the summer months (8 months, November - June) from the storage pond near MGHE to the weir proposed to be constructed in the upstream of Sita Katte bridge and use the reversible flow in the same pipeline for generating power for 4 months (July-October). x The water from the weir will be released to the falls in the summer months (for about 8 months from November to June). This pumped water, drops over the falls for a maximum of about 8 hours each day for 8 months. The discharged water at the upstream will have a natural distribution through cascades before the drop in the falls. x In rainy season (June to October), the same pipeline would be used to generate power. The pump house/power house will be located in the area opposite side of Mahatma Gandhi Hydro Electric (MGHE) power house adjacent to Ambuthirtha reservoir/MGHE powerhouse tail water pond. The reservoir has sufficient storage capacity. x The water is pumped directly from the downstream storage pond through two pipes of 1600 mm diameter, which passes through a tunnel near Bombay guest house. The total distance to be covered from the pump house to the foot of the anicut near the Sita Katte bridge shall be approximately 3210 m. x The power house with two generators will be with an installed capacity for generation of power of 16.61 MW each in monsoon months (totalling to 47.84 million units) and the power consumed in non-monsoon months (pump mode) would be 24.74 MW each amounting to 47.80 Million units.

Land Cover. Western Ghats. Tropical Ecosystems. Stream Flow ABSTRACT Western Ghats is the primary catchment for most of the rivers in peninsular India. Pristine forests in this region are rich in biodiversity and are being cleared due to unsound developmental activities. Rapid land-use changes have undermined the hydrological conditions, there by affecting all the components in the hydrological regime. The development programs based on ad-hoc decisions, is posing serious challenges in conserving fragile ecosystems. These changes have adversely affected the hydrological regime of river basins resulting in diminished river / stream flows. This necessitates conservation of ecosystems in order to sustain the biodiversity, hydrology and ecology. In this situation, in order to resolve present problems and to avoid a future crisis, a comprehensive assessment of land use changes, its spatial distribution and its impact on hydrological regime was carried out to explore appropriate remedial methods for the sustainable utilization management of natural resources.

  • 'Plantations Will Turn Western Ghats Into Uttarakhand'
    'Plantations will turn Western Ghats into Uttarakhand’ http://newindianexpress.com/states/karnataka/Plantations-will-turn-Western-Ghats-into-Uttarakh... 'Plantations will turn Western Ghats into Uttarakhand’ Author: Jagadeesh Sampalli Published Date: Jul 4, 2013 8:01 AM Last Updated: Jul 4, 2013 8:01 AM Uttarakhand will repeat in Karnataka, unless preventive measures are taken: this is the warning sounded by a team of scientists from the Indian Institute of Science. The team, along with the Forest Department, studied the ground realities in the Sharavathi valley, a major part of the river basin in the Western Ghats, and recorded factors contributing to such disasters for a decade from 2003. Their final report has been submitted to the state government. Scientist T V Ramachandra of the Centre for Ecological Sciences (CES) at IISc who led the study told Express: “We conducted the study in Varada and Sharavathi river valleys. Removing of trees atop hills and creation of mono-culture plantations is the reason for landslides in the Sharavathi valley, just like in Uttarakhand. Nothing has happened where there is thick forest and grasslands.’’ Ramachandra said that incidents of landslides in the entire Western Ghats range has been increasing. “We found landslides reported in 32 places in the interior part of the Western Ghats, including Honnavar and Karwar. In 2009, 19 people lost their lives in landslides that occurred in 21 places in Karwar,” he outlined. The Uttarkhand disaster, he said, was caused because the district administration replaced the oaks with mono-species trees, causing the soil to loosen. Also, more than 74 hydro-power projects were implemented in the ecologically sensitive areas.
