  • Angat Water Transmission Improvement Project Metro Manila, the Philippines
    Angat Water Transmission Improvement Project Metro Manila, The Philippines i Summary Metro Manila also called the National Capital Region (NCR) is situated in the south eastern part of the Philippines. Serving as the main economic culture and educational center, the region is a densely populated metropolitan area. The Angat Water Transmission Improvement Project (AWTIP) was designed to ensure secured and sufficient raw water supply to meet the current and future demands of the rapidly growing population of Metro Manila. The project focuses on the construction of a new 6.3 km tunnel (no. 4), intake structures at the Ipo dam and connecting structures of the transition basins, new aqueduct (no. 6)., rehabilitating and retrofitting of existing tunnels and aqueducts. The project is expected to restore the water transmission capacity of the Angat transmission system which currently operates about the 30% below its design capacity. Given the rapidly growing population of a highly populated Metro Manila, the project would ensure that a maximum capacity of 4.65 million m3/d of raw water is transmitted from the Angat dam at maximum efficiency. In addition, the execution of the project is expected to build the technical capacity of the staffs of the Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System (MWSS), who are the primary administrators of the project. The project features social and economic aspects that are targeted towards improving the livelihood and health conditions of source community’s programs and indigenous people. The project also has in place environmental safeguards that aim at reducing and mitigating direct and indirect impacts on the biotic and abiotic parts of the environment.

Physico-chemical parameters of the reservoir were sampled monthly from three stations (Feginma, Sakarma, and Turawa) for the period of six months (March to August, 2017) using standard methods. Potential fish yield estimates of the three sites were determined using the values of the Physico-chemical characteristics of the reservoir with the relationship Y=23.281 MEI 0.447 , where Y is the potential fish yield in Kg/ha, MEI is Morphoedaphic index (given in µS/cm) which was obtained by dividing mean conductivity of the reservoir by mean depth. The potential fish yield estimates of the three sites are 88.05, 98.56 and 111.12 Kg/ha.

B. L. Gadiga and I. D. Garandi Department of Geography, Adamawa State University, Mubi, Adamawa State, Nigeria [email protected]/[email protected] +2348064306660 [email protected] +2348030790726 DOI: 10.29322/IJSRP.8.8.2018.p8058 http://dx.doi.org/10.29322/IJSRP.8.8.2018.p8058 ABSTRACT This study focuses on the assessment of the spatial and temporal changes of Kiri lake between 1984 and 2016. The study used both geo-information techniques and field survey to carry out analysis on the spatial as well as the changes in the depth of the lake. Landsat TM and OLI of 1984 and 2016 respectively were digitized in order to determine the extent of surface area changes that has occurred. Field method was used in determining changes in the depth of the lake. The results revealed that the lake has reduced in both surface area and depth. The surface area of the lake in 1984 was 100.3 m2 which reduced to 57.0 m2 in 2016. This means that the surface area of the lake has reduced by 43% within the period of 32 years whereas the depth has reduced by more than half of its original depth. The original depth of which was 20 m has reduced to an average depth of 8.48 m. This revealed that an average siltation of 11.52 m has occurred within the period under study.

  • Abrasion Risk Assessment on the Coasts of Seas and Water Reservoirs
    Burova, V. N.: Abrasion Risk Assessment on the Coasts of Seas…, Geod. list 2020, 2, 185–198 185 UDK 551.435.31:628.132:510.589 Original scientific paper / Izvorni znanstveni članak Abrasion Risk Assessment on the Coasts of Seas and Water Reservoirs Valentina N. BUROVA – Moscow1 ABSTRACT. Destructive processes on seas and water reservoirs of Russia lead to significant losses of valuable coastal territories and damage to numerous economic objects located there. The article discusses the spatial and temporal patterns of the development of certain types of coasts and water bodies as a whole. An algorithm (methodology) for the quantitative assessment of abrasion risk is proposed, which is the main tool for determining the need for and priority of preventive measures. The general mathematical models for abrasion risk calculation are substantiated. The possibilities of assessing the abrasion risk with a minimum amount of data for choos- ing the optimal location of new reservoirs are considered. Specific examples of abra- sion risk assessment are given for seas and large water reservoirs in Russia, with priority investments from the federal budget being indicated. Timely implementation of measures aimed at reducing losses from coast destruction will benefit for the ra- tional and safe use of coastal areas. Keywords: coast destruction processes, spatial and temporal patterns, abrasion risk, mathematical models of risk assessment, the use of risk assessments. 1. Introduction Coasts of seas and artificial water reservoirs are usually the most developed and at the same time dynamically active areas of the Earth, within which a synergis- tically linked set of abrasion, landslide, karst-suffosion, surge and many other hazardous natural and techno-natural processes develop.

Findings of the study provide ample evidence of rural neglect and low level of satisfaction with the irrigation experience. The harsh eco climatic conditions and degradation of the environment account largely for the weight attached to environmental problems. The results of the study also show that water development projects need to consider issues broader in scope than as conceived at the moment. Finally, water resources projects should be subjected to environmental and socio-economic impact assessment. This and other suggestions made should eliminate observed community problems and non-satisfaction with irrigation projects. INTRODUCTION Since the 1966-73 Sudano-sahelian drought in Nigeria, measures have been taken to mitigate and, if possible, neutralize the adverse consequences of this recurrent climatic 74 Annals of The Social Science Council of Nigeria, No. 7.

Prominent among such measures have been the development of irrigation and water resources on a large scale (see Table l).Three major River Basin Development Authorities (RBDAs) have been operating in the region since 1973, namely: Chad, Sokoto-Rima and Hadejia-Jama'are RBDAs. The RBDAs were conceived as agents of rural development: they were set up to plan, formulate and implement comprehensive and integrated rural development programmes, with water resources development serving as the pivot or catalyst.

  • Environmental Challenges and the Quest for Social Justice in Dam Communities of Nigeria
    Bangladesh e-Journal of Sociology. Volume 10, Number 2. July 2013 80 Environmental Challenges and the Quest for Social Justice in Dam Communities of Nigeria Ali Arazeem Abdullahi1, Usman A. Raheem2, Saliman Tunde Saliman3. Abstract: While the Nigerian government is focusing its attention on building new dams, the problems and challenges posed by the existing dams to the people and environment across dam communities of Nigeria seem to have been neglected or glossed over. This paper examines the environmental challenges posed by existing dams and how these problems have aggravated grassroots activism and the quest for social justice in dam communities of Nigeria. The paper also examines the institutional arrangement that has been put in place by the government of Nigeria to address these agitations and how effective this might be. On the whole, the paper draws on the concept of community participation to interrogate the socio-cultural and ecologic chasm that certain large dam projects appear to have created between the state and local communities. Keywords: environment, environmental degradation, Dams; HYPADEC; Community participation, Nigeria. Background Dams, especially large ones, function to provide water and energy; they are therefore indispensable mechanisms for economic growth. Large dams4 are also centres of attraction for travelers and tourists. They provide employment for the unemployed and are rich sources of fresh fishes. Following the importance attached to large dams, reports have shown that between 30% and 40% of irrigated land worldwide depend on dams while 19% of world electricity is generated from them (World Commission on Dams [WCD], 2000). By the end of the 20th century, as many as 45,000 large dams have been built across the world (WCD, 2000) with a staggering $2 trillion spent on them (International Rivers Network, [IRN], 2003).
