Introduction and Background The AECOM team, including partner firms IBM and KPMG, is carrying out the assignment “Smart City Master Planning + Sector Specific Smart City Infrastructure Plans for Visakhapatnam” on behalf of the Government of Andhra Pradesh (USTDA financing). With a view to promoting the development of Visakhapatnam (“Vizag”) into a smarter city, the assignment includes baseline analysis, formulation of a development strategy and guidelines, preparation of a smart city master plan, and feasibility analysis of smart city projects. It is anticipated that the work will be completed over three 5-month phases, as follows: • Phase 1: Baseline, Smart City Development Strategy and Action Planning for Two Smart City Projects (March 2016 – August 2016) • Phase 2: Preparation of the Smart City Master Plan • Phase 3: Implementation Plan and Feasibility Studies for Four Smart City Projects Phase 1 was contracted on February 12, 2016 and is currently underway. Phase 1 includes six tasks: • Task 1. Defining Visakhapatnam Smart City Vision • Task 2. Review and Analysis of Existing Conditions and Corresponding Best Practices • Task 3. Strategic Planning for Regulatory and Infrastructure Framework • Task 4. Sector-Specific Strategies • Task 5. Action Planning for Two Smart City Projects • Task 6. Interim Report This report is submitted in satisfaction of the requirements of Task 6, Interim Report. 3 Smart City Master Planning + Sector Specific Smart City Infrastructure Plans for Visakhapatnam Interim Report 2. Activities Undertaken in Phase I The starting point for the exercise was the smart city vision prepared under the Government of India’s national Smart City Challenge competition. AECOM and IBM were awarded a separate contract by the Government of Andhra Pradesh to prepare Vizag’s Smart City Challenge Proposal. The top 20 municipalities in the country were to qualify, based on their proposals, for inclusion in the first tranche of Indian smart cities. Winning municipalities qualify for national government funding to undertake selected smart city investments. The Greater Visakhapatnam Municipal Corporation (GVMC) developed its Challenge Proposal from July - December 2015 and submitted the Challenge Proposal to the Ministry of Urban Development (New Delhi) in December 2015. The proposal was successful: Visakhapatnam was selected for inclusion in the first tranche of 20 cities. The smart city vision for Vizag as set out in the Challenge Proposal is to develop the city as “A resilient and healthy metropolis for PEOPLE: The City of Destiny is envisioned to become a leader in sustainability, healthy living, equality and innovation.” The vision was summarized in more detail in Section 3: The Smart City Challenge Proposal Vision of Task 1 and described in detail in the Challenge Proposal itself.1 Validation of this proposal was carried out through a series of focus groups and interviews with key stakeholders. Section 2: Activities Undertaken in Validating the Vision in Task 1 describes the work undertaken by the AECOM team. The refinement of the vision took into account the requirement for Vizag to function as the main economic engine of the new, smaller Andhra Pradesh state, following the division of the former state into Andhra Pradesh and Telangana states. The evolution of the vision for Vizag is described in Section 3: The Smart City Challenge Proposal Vision of Task 1. The refined Vision Statement is set out in a separate Task 1 deliverable, “Smart City Vision Statement.” The AECOM team participated in Mission #2 in Delhi and Visakhapatnam from 12 – 24 May 2016. During this period the team conducted focus group sessions with key municipal, private sector, NGO, and citizen stakeholders around shared interests in urban development, transportation, health care, energy infrastructure, water infrastructure, education, information and communications technology, resilience and disaster management, economic development, and ecology. Team members also performed site visits throughout the VUDA region to the proposed airport site, south to the industrial estates, through the port and surrounding the naval base grounds, as well as to Bheemunipatnam, natural open spaces, settlements, and regional tourism attractions. Based on these interactions, team members revised the Smart City Visakhapatnam Vision statement and presented regular updates to Municipal Commissioner Pravin Kumar for his review and comment. Task 3, Strategic Planning for Regulatory and Infrastructure Framework, involved the AECOM team taking the prior knowledge gained from site visits throughout the VUDA region to create assessments based on the urban growth requirements of the population (housing, densification, greenfield development) as well future infrastructure needs (transport, water/wastewater, power supply). The AECOM team also conducted a resilience assessment based on meetings, workshops and field observations in May 2016 and a review and analysis of existing secondary 1 “Proposal for Assisting Visakhapatnam City to Participate in the Smart City Challenge,” GVMC/AECOM, 2015. 4 Smart City Master Planning + Sector Specific Smart City Infrastructure Plans for Visakhapatnam Interim Report data and recommendations related to the vulnerability of Visakhapatnam to natural hazards. The resilience assessment focused on a review of natural hazards, a vulnerability assessment of key assets, existing mitigation of hazard vulnerabilities, and recommendations for additional resilience. After the AECOM team reviewed existing infrastructure plans that the Central Government is in the process of developing, they presented an initial strategy that would lead to a final Smart City plan for Vizag and shape future development. The guidelines for the Smart City plan were laid out in Task 4, Sector-Specific Strategies, which included three sets of sector-specific guidelines: Guidelines for Developing “Smart” Infrastructure: Energy Sector, Guidelines for Developing “Smart” Infrastructure: Transport Sector, and “Guidelines for Developing “Smart” Infrastructure: Water Supply, Sewerage, and Drainage Sector. The three reports were intended to provide guidance for the identification, development, and implementation of energy, water, and transport services. The reports outlined the typical processes involved in the project development lifecycle for both solicited and unsolicited projects across the various sectors in Greater Vizag. The guidelines presented recognized that each project is unique, and certain elements set forth in the reports may not apply in all circumstances and may be subject to change as deemed appropriate. Furthermore, the guidelines are intended to serve as a general template for implementing smart projects and are not meant to be limiting. The Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) or the public entity responsible for the Smart City projects has the flexibility to amend provisions in these guidelines on a case-by- case basis, so long as the resulting provisions comply with guideline objectives, which are to: • Guide and inform analyses and other work to be performed for the planning and implementation of Smart City projects; and • Guide and inform the planning, deliberation, and decision-making process of GVMC, the Grantee, and other key stakeholders in identifying, assessing, implementing, and executing Smart City initiatives and projects to the extent applicable to the energy sector. The AECOM team coordinated and refined the deliverables under Task 5, Action Planning for Two Smart City Projects, through an iterative process involving GVMC, VUDA and infrastructure providers. The team built upon the Visakhapatnam Smart City vision to develop candidate projects within the energy, water, mobility sectors and cross-cutting platforms. Implementation project criteria were used to evaluate and refine each project consistent with the vision, government policies, and needs of the GVMC and VUDA areas. The action plans take into account anticipated economic and social benefits and costs, environmental benefits and costs, resiliency, as well as project feasibility, financing, and operations and management considerations. During the July mission to Visakhapatnam, the AECOM team met with the GVMC municipal commissioner and staff to present work completed to-date and the Phase I vision documents. The smart city projects kick-off workshop included review of a long list of potential projects based upon infrastructure sectors, governance, and smart characteristics. The AECOM team also met with VUDA consultants to coordinate project efforts going forward into Phase II. The AECOM team presented the Phase I vision documents and a summary of work 5 Smart City Master Planning + Sector Specific Smart City Infrastructure Plans for Visakhapatnam Interim Report completed work to-date and participated in discussions of the other ongoing projects.

  • Sedimentological Characterization of Nagavali-Vamsadhra Estuarine System, East Coast of India, Andhra Pradesh
    Studia Rosenthaliana (Journal for the Study of Research) ISSN NO: 1781-7838 Sedimentological Characterization of Nagavali-Vamsadhra Estuarine System, East Coast of India, Andhra Pradesh Gara Raja Rao1, Yamala Vinay Kumar2, Vaggela Asha3, Sanapala Harikrishna3, Mokka Jagannadha Rao4 1 Assistant Professor, Department of Geology, Andhra University, Visakhapatnam. 2,3 Research Scholar, Department of Geology, Andhra University, Visakhapatnam. 4 Professor, Department of Geology, Andhra University, Visakhapatnam. Abstract: The importance of textural characteristics of estuarine sediments in the present study is useful in understanding the intensity of sediment transportation in the fluvial systems. The importance of grain size parameters of the sediments is well recognized in sedimentology and has been well established. The present study illustrates the detailed textural characterization of Nagavali and Vamsadhara estuarine sediments of East Coast of India, Srikakulam, Tamil Nadu. The textural studies reflect that the sediments have significant fractions of fine to medium sand, silt and clay, where fine sand is predominant in both the estuaries. The statistical sedimentary analysis for the samples say mean size, standard deviation, skewness and kurtosis is carried out. The sediment is dominantly fine sand with moderately sorted, nearly skewed in Nagavali estuary whereas the sand is very well sorted and nearly symmetrical in Vamsadhara estuarine sediments. The sediments of both are similar in size and show low variance. The present study suggests that the sediments were deposited in low energy conditions. The Nagavali estuary samples shows nearly symmetrical skewness and the Vamsadhara estuary samples shows nearly symmetrical to positive skewness. Negative Skewness was being correlated with high energy and winnowing action and positive Skewness with lower energy levels.
