PREFACE

Energy and water are the prime movers of human life. Though deficient in oil and gas,Pakistan has abundant water and other energy sources like hydel power, coal, wind and solarpower.

The country situated between the Arabian Sea and the Himalayas, Hindukush and

Karakoram Ranges has great political, economic and strategic importance. The total primaryenergy use in Pakistan amounted to 60 million tons of oil equivalent (mtoe) in 2006-07. Theannual growth of primary energy supplies and their per capita availability during the last 10years has increased by nearly 50%. The per capita availability now stands at 0.372 toe which isvery low compared to 8 toe for USA for example.

The World Bank estimates that worldwide electricity production in percentage for coal is40, gas 19, nuclear 16, hydro 16 and oil 7. Pakistan meets its energy requirement around 41%by indigenous gas, 19% by oil, and 37% by hydro electricity. Coal and nuclear contribution toenergy supply is limited to 0.16% and 2.84% respectively with a vast potential for growth.

The Water and Power Development Authority (WAPDA) is vigorously carrying outfeasibility studies and engineering designs for various hydropower projects with accumulativegeneration capacity of more than 25000 MW. Most of these studies are at an advance stage ofcompletion. After the completion of these projects the installed capacity would rise to around42000 MW by the end of the year 2020. Pakistan has been blessed with ample water resourcesbut could store only 13% of the annual flow of its rivers. The storage is fast depleting due tosedimentation. In contrast US has developed 497% storage capacity of annual flow of RiverColorado; Egypt possesses 281% of River Nile and India 35% on Sutlej-Bias Basin. All thesestatistics warrant construction of number of reservoirs to enhance availability of water whichstands at 1011 cubic meter per capita. Anything below 1000 cubic meter tantamount to a crisissituation. The hydropower potential in Pakistan is over 100,000 MW with identified sites of

59000 MW. Currently, studies under way include Diamer Basha (4500 MW), Bunji (7100 MW)and Kohala (1100 MW) amongst many others.

Pakistan with 185 billion tons of coal reserves, the fourth largest in the world, is underutilizing this resource. In the overall energy mix, the share of coal power is only 7% ascompared to world average of 40%. Coal is the main source for producing cheaper electricityand the Government has decided to enhance the share of coal in the overall energy mix of upto18% in 2030. The Government is striving hard to minimize the gap between consumption andgeneration of electricity at affordable rate.

The Government Power Policies of 1995 and 2002 have encouraged many private sector

foreign and local investment through the Independent Power Producers (IPPs).

WATER AND POWER SECTOR DEVELOPMENT

Irrigated agriculture is the backbone of Pakistan's economy. The agriculture sector is themajor user of water and its consumption will continue to dominate the water requirements.Direct rainfall contributes less than 15 percent of the water supplied to the crops. Themajor user of water for irrigation is the Indus Basin Irrigation System. About 105 Million Acres Feet (MAF) out of 155 MAF of surface water is being diverted annually for irrigationwhile around 48 MAF is pumped from groundwater.

Pakistan has a total 196.72 MA area out of that 72.7 MA is cultivable. The cultivated area(Irrigated & Barani) has come to 52.31 MA, whereas 47.62 MA is area under all sort ofirrigation sources. (27 MA is the area under canal irrigation).

With large cultivable land base of 72.7 Million Acres (MA) of which only 27 MA are canalcommanded, Pakistan still has the additional potential of bringing about 20.3 MA of virginland under irrigation.

With increased population, Pakistan is fast heading towards a situation of water shortagePer capita surface water availability was 5260 cubic meters in 1951 when population was34 million, which reduced to 1032 cubic meter in 2013 when the estimated population is

184 million. In the year 2014, Pakistan will have reached the stage of" acute watershortage" According to the 1960 Indus Water Treaty, signed between India and Pakistan with the

good offices of World / Bank, India was allowed exclusive rights to use waters of Ravi,Sutlej and Beas rivers, whereas the waters of Western Rivers, Indus, Jhelum and Chenabwere assigned to Pakistan. Under the 1960 Treaty, the Indus Basin Replacement Workscomprising two major dams, 5 barrages and 8 link canals were constructed to alleviate theproblems. However, due to excessive sediment inflows in the river water, all the threestorages (Tarbela, Mangla, Chashma) are rapidly loosing their capacities. By the year2025, these storages would loose 37% (5.96 MAF) of their capacity, which virtually meansloss of one mega storage project.

An annual average of over 35.2 MAF escapes below Kotri varying from 9 MAF to 92 MAF.However this surplus water in the river system is available in about 70-100 days ofsummer only. To save and utilize available water, construction of additional storagefacilities is essential for sustainable irrigated agriculture, which supports about 70% of thepopulation of Pakistan.

National demand of electricity has been and would keep on growing rapidly. Based on thepresent generation capacity, the hydel:thermal mix in the country is 37:63, which is almostthe reverse of an ideal hydel - thermal mix, which should be 70:30 for overall economicdevelopment of the Pakistan. Though induction of thermal generation initially helped inovercoming load shedding, it resulted in substantial increase in power tariff. Therefore, asizeable injection of cheap hydropower through multipurpose storages is a viable option to

keep the cost of electricity within affordable limits. To facilitate the process of economic development and to ensure greater social

stabilization in Pakistan, it is imperative that employment creation and poverty reductionissues are addressed on priority. Additional water storages and power generation wouldform the basis of this strategy during the next decade.

At present the rated electric power generating capacity in Pakistan is only 20822 MW withthe demand growing at 10% annually. The average per capita consumption is only 482units. Power shortage in the industrial, agricultural and domestic sectors has been evidentfor the past few years with the shortage assuming critical proportions last year.

The water shortage is even more acute. To feed a population of nearly 184 million people,existing water storage capacity of 15 Million Acre Feet (MAF) needs to be tripled in the

years ahead so that the remaining 20.3 Million Acres of cultivable land can be broughtunder plough. Water conservation and increased water productivity must also beencouraged.

It is an economically unsustainable fact that the total water storages capacity in thecountry is only 15 MAF representing 9.67% of the total annual flows of 155 MAF.

Countries in Asia, Africa and the Americas have a storage capacity many times greater.To address this problem the Government of Pakistan (GoP) is developing feasibility anddetailed engineering studies for nearly 20 MAF of water storage and 25,000 MW of hydelpower. This is apart from thermal power being developed by the private sector,Independent Power Producers (IPPs) and the Government.

Pakistan has a total area of 196.72 million acres (MA) out of that 72.7 Million Acres is cultivableout of that 47.62 MA is irrigated. Pakistan still has the potential to bring about 17 MA of rain fed

land under irrigation. Pakistan had a storage capacity of 15 MAF in 1976 which has been reducedto 12.10 MAF in 2010 due to excessive sediment inflows in the river water. The three storages(Tarbela, Mangla, Chashma) are rapidly losing their capacities and by 2025, it is expected that wemay lose 37% (5.96 MAF) of their capacity which virtually means loss of one mega storageproject. To save and utilize available water and to ensure the water availability, construction ofadditional storage facilities is essential for sustainable irrigated Agriculture. Accordingly, seriousefforts were made for the construction of large reservoirs during 2008-2013 when Diamer BashaDam (to store 8.1 MAF & to generate 4500 MW) was approved in 2009 whereas construction workhas commenced in 2010. On completion of Diamer Basha Dam, the water availability will berestored to the level of 1976. Besides, Mangla Dam Raising project has been completed in 2010which will store 2.88 MAF of water in addition to existing capacity of 5.37 MAF. In addition,multipurpose Gomal Zam Dam in South Waziristan Agency to store 1 MAF of water and to

generate 17.4 MW of power has been completed in 2010. Satpara Dam in Skardu (GilgitBaltistan) to store 93000 Acre Feet & to generate 17.4 MW of power has been completed. MiraniDam in Turbat (Balochistan) (storage capacity of 3 lac Acre Feet) & Sabakzai Dam Zhob(Balochistan) (storage capacity of 33000 Acre Feet) have been completed in 2009 respectively.Mohmand (Munda) Dam (1.3 MAF) & Kurram Tangi Dam (1.2 MAF) will be constructed in nearfuture to mitigate flood & to generate cheap hydropower to irrigate the barren & undevelopedareas, Mega canals were built during these years i.e. Greater Thal Canal (Punjab) completed andhanded over to Govt of Punjab in 2009 whereas work on Kachhi Canal (Balochistan) andRainee Canal (Sindh) is in progress.

The installed power generation capacity was 18000 MW in year 2007 which has been increased to20822 MW in year 2013. However, the dependable capacity is 18,800 MW out of which 6,928 isbeing produced through Hydropower, 3,580 by Government (GENCOs), 7571 by Independent

Private Power Producers (IPPs) and 665 MW through Nuclear and Wind 106 MW. Gap in demandand supply which rose to 6,000 MW in summer depicts acute power crises. WAPDA is producingthis Hydropower @ Rs.1.35 per unit as compared to Rs.16.99 per unit of Thermal Powerbeing produced by IPPs through Furnace Oil. The demand of power is currently about 20,000MW which will rise to 36,000 MW in the year 2015. WAPDA has added 554 MW i.e. Khan Khwar72 MW, Rehabilitation of Tarbela (100 MW), Allai Khwar, (121 MW) and Jinnah HPP (96 MW) Duber Khwar HPP (130 MW), Gomal Zam Dam (17.4 MW), Satpara Dam (17.36 MW) to thesystem in 2010-13 whereas it will add 1136 MW , whereas Golen Gol (106 MW) and NeelumJhelum HPP (969 MW) will produce power in year 2015-16. In addition, WAPDA has initiatedactivities to produce 19194 MW in next 5 years through Diamer Basha Dam (4500 MW), KurranTangi Dam (84 MW), Tarbela 4th Extension (1410 MW), Munda Dam (740 MW), Dasu Dam(4320 MW), Bunji Dam (7100 MW) and Kohala Dam (1100 MW) respectively.

To achieve the above objectives the GoP through WAPDA and the private sector plans toconcentrate on the following water and power projects in the next few years: (i)Construction of large dams including Diamer-Basha Dam for Public/Private Partnership (ii)Construction of Hydropower Projects (iii) Construction of Medium/Small Water StorageDams (iv) Construction of Canals (v) Construction of Transmission Lines for dispersal ofPower from Hydropower Project to Load Centres of National Grid. These projects wouldcreate additional water storages, generate cheap indigenously developed electricity andprevent flood damages. All these measures would also ensure food security, employmentgeneration and above all poverty alleviation.

NEELUM JHELUM HYDROELECTRIC PROJECT

Energy is the basic ingredient of development of a country. The fast-growing energyrequirements in Pakistan need to be met in order to achieve full economic and socialdevelopment. Currently, most of the energy demands are being met through thermal PowerProjects. Although thermal projects offer benefit of comparatively less time for completion,

however their dependence on fossil fuel which is mostly imported through foreign exchange andtheir higher power generation cost is causing difficulty for general public and the industrialproducts to compete in the world.

The Government of Pakistan is focusing on the development of indigenous domestic hydropowerresources. Pakistan has huge hydropower generation potential, which can be exploited on along-term basis for provision of power at much lower costs. The hydropower project, althoughtheir initial cost high and is relatively difficult to develop, may be given preference because oftheir low recurring expenses for provision of inexpensive energy. Neelum Jhelum HydropowerProject is presently, the only mega hydropower project with 969 MW generation capacity, beingconstructed on River Neelum in Azad Jammu & Kashmir. Govt. of Pakistan (GoP) approved the

financing arrangement of this project as 50:50 loans to equity basis i.e. 50% financed by Govt. ofPakistan by levy Rs.0.10 per unit surcharge on electricity bills and 50% by Donors funding. Themajor Donors are IDB, Kuwait Fund, Abu Dhabi Fund, Saudi Fund and OPEC. In addition ChinaExim Bank will provide Buyer‟s Credit of US$ 448 Million. Due to earthquake of 2005, massivechanges are made in design and structure of the project whereas the cost of project has nowbeen increased from Rs.84.50 billion (as per first PC-I) to Rs. 274.88 billion (as per revisedproposed PC-I). The expected date of completion of project is in November 2016.

THE PROJECT

Neelum Jhelum Hydroelectric Project is located in the vicinity of Muzaffarabad (AJ&K). Itenvisages the diversion of Neelum river water through a tunnel out -falling into Jhelum river. The

tunnel intake is at Nauseri 41 Km North East of Muzaffarabad. The Powerhouse will beconstructed at Chatter Kalas, 22 Km South of Muzaffarabad. After passing through the turbines,the water will be released into JhelumRiver about, 4 Km South of Chatter Kalas. Neelum JhelumHydroelectric Project has installed capacity of 969 MW. The Project will produce 5.15 Billion unitsof electricity annually.

The total length of head race tunnel is 28.5 Km. A 19.5 Km stretch of the tunnel from the Nauseribe constructed as a twin tunnel system each with x-section ranging from 52 to 58 m 2. Theremaining headrace tunnel down to the surge chamber will be a single tunnel having x-section104 m2. The tunnel portion to be excavated with TBM will be shotcrete lined with a concreteinvert while the drill and blast portion of the tunnel will have full face concrete lining. The tunnel

crosses Jhelum River approximately 200 m below its bed. The tunnel is accessed by 8 Adits forremoval of excavated spoil.

The Surge Chamber consists of 341 m high riser shaft and 820 m long surge tunnel, Four steellined Penstock tunnels 154 m long and having 3.8 m internal diameter will also be constructed.The underground power Station will have 4 units with a total capacity of 969 MW. The PowerStation will be connected with Gakhar Grid station through 500KV double circuit transmissionline.

Board of Directors NJHPC had approved the deployment of Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM)for the project on 23.11.2010. WAPDA has arranged procurement of TBM from M/SHerrenknecht Germany at a cost of US$ 92 Million. The deployment of TBM will certainly

help to put the project on scheduled track and recover most part of delayed periodenvisaged for the commencement.

DIAMER BASHA DAM PROJECTGENERALGovernment of Pakistan decided to construct 5 multi-purpose storages in the country during next 10 -12years. Diamer Basha Dam Project will be undertaken in the first phase. President of Pakistan performedthe groundbreaking ceremony of the project. Detailed engineering design of the dam and allied structuresis completed and tender documents are ready. Project work is divided into five lots, which would beimplemented by contractors through international competitive bidding.

THE PROJECTThe project is located on Indus River, about 315 km upstream of Tarbela Dam, 180 km downstream of theGilgit-Baltistan capital Gilgit and 40 km downstream of Chilas (refer location map). The proposed damwould have a maximum height of 272 m, and impound a reservoir of about 8.1million acre feet (MAF),with live storage of more than 6.4 MAF. Mean annual discharge of Indus River at the site is 50 MAF. Thusthe dam will impound 15% of the annual river flow. The dam project would cover an area of 110 km2 andextend 100 km upstream of the dam site upto Raikot Bridge on Karakoram Highway (KKH).

The dam is located at the boundary of Gilgit-Baltistan (GB) and Khyber Pakhtoonkhwa (KPK) in such away that the right abutment and the right Power House is in GB while the left bank of the dam and the leftPower House is in Khyber Pakhtoonkhwa. WAPDA offices and Colony including that of the Consultantsshall be in the Thor Nallah Valley in GB while the Contractor‟s Camp and fabrication yard and workshopshall be in Khyber Pakhtoonkhwa

NEED OF THE PROJECT Agriculture is the backbone of Pakistan‟s economy. Pakistan today is among one of the World‟s fastestgrowing population, now estimated as over 150 million. Due to lack of large river regulation capability

through sizeable storages, the country is already facing serious shortages in food grains. Given thepresent trend, Pakistan could soon become one of the food deficit countries in the near future. Therefore,there is a dire need to build storages for augmenting agriculture production.


22/91

Tarbela, Mangla and Chashma reservoirs have already lost about 5.3 MAF due to sedimentation. It isestimated that by year 2016, this loss would increase to 6.6 MAF, almost equal to the original combinedcapacity of Mangla and Chashma reservoirs. Due to complete stoppage of any sizable multi-purposestorage development after commissioning of Tarbela Dam in 1976, sustainability of existing irrigatedagriculture of Pakistan is in serious jeopardy.

The present demand of electricity in country is above 17,000 MW, which is estimated to cross 30,000 MW

by the year 2017. A large-scale injection of power thus becomes inevitable. Hydropower will provide therequired electricity at affordable price. Contribution of 4500 MW power from Diamer Basha Dam will go along way in alleviating this situation.

RELOCATION OF AFFECTEESWAPDA have planned 03 Composite Model Villages for Resettlement of Affectees of DBDP at Thak Das,Harpan Das and Kino Das.To improve communication between communities on either side of River Indus, a bridge at Thakot hadbeen constructed at cost of Rs 647 Million ($7.6 Million).SOCIAL IMPACT ASSESSMENTThere is always a need to identify and measure such impacts in such a way so as to help and manage insuch a way that the positive externalities are maximized and the negative

externalities are minimized.Before initiating any mega development project it is necessary to find outthe potential social impacts of the project and determine its effects on thelives of the direct and indirect project affetees and to devise a plan tomitigation these effects.During the house hold survey for data verification by the LA&R team, needwas felt to find out that what the project affectees are thinking about thechange that will occur in their social institutions after the completion of thismega project and to record their opinions accordingly. For this purpose,the LA&R wing initiated a process of workshops in the project area.Some specific objectives of the SIA workshop are as follow:

To determine the social Impacts of Diamer Basha Dam Project. To find out social institutional impact during and after the completion of

Dam To involve the affectees in future speculation of post project situation To devise a mitigation plan based on comprehensive social impact assessment.

LIVELIHOOD RESTORATION & DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM After collecting a land acquisition and social statistical data a comprehensive Livelihood Restoration andDevelopment Plan has been prepared. The Plan developed after carrying out Stakeholder Analysis,existing Socio-economic Analysis and Need Analysis of the affected communities at the villages. Duringthe Preparation of Plan the Project Affected People were thoroughly consulted and series of meetingswere conducted at village level.The Livelihood Restoration and Development Plan will cover the Direct and Indirect Affectees of the

Diamer District (Gilgit Baltistan) and upper part of Kohistan District (Khyber Pakhtunkhwa).To ensure the participation of the local population at a grass root level in everysphere of livelihood development process, a proper social organizationmechanism has been developed. The process of social organization will becarried out by the NGO to ensure the grass rooted community involvement fromplanning to implementation level. The affected communities would be organizedby the formation of community based organizations at village level. TheCommunity Based Organizations (CBOs) will be liable to share 20% of the totalcost of scheme, so as to ensure the owner ship of the project by the community. This share may be inshape of labor, land and material. The CBO will be guided to make consensus on the single infrastructurescheme, according to the top priorities of the relevant CBO. The whole process will be facilitated by theNGO and will be supervised by the LA&R (WAPDA).

A project Non-Government Organization (NGO) is being engaged for effective implementation of theseplans by mobilizing local communities. It will also be utilized for monitoring on various stages ofresettlement activities. The Various Schemes had been devised keeping in view the social sensitivity ofthe tribal society. The objective is to engage communities restore the livelihood loses and developed toextent that they feel better of the existing situation that to play active role in the national building in futureThe activities are listed below:
