Subject: Kirthai Stage-ll HEP (930 MW) Project in Kishtwar District of Jammu &

Kashmir U/ttls. J&K Power Development Corporation - for Scoping/TOR -

regarding.Sir,

This is with reference to your letter no. Cl&D/571-1117165'79 dated 6.2.2012 and

9.1.2013 on the above mentioned subject.

Z. The proposal was eartier submitted for scoping ctearance for 990 MW. The ftow

series have been approved by CWC on 1.9.2011. The flow series corresponding tomonsoon flow in 90/. dependab[e year ranged from 673.7 to 1038.8 m3/sec, and a design

discharge of 512 m3/sec'with bifuication of 413.47 m3/sec for 840 MW (6x140 MW) main

undergiound powerhouse and 99.17 m3/sec for 90 MW dam'toe powerhouse has been

adopt6d. 20% retease in lean season ftow ranging from 50 to 70 cumec was reported

adequate to meet the downstream retease. As a resutt of downward revision of capacity

from 990 MW to 930 MW, there witt be no submergence of Paddar Vattey. The projectproposal was considered by Environment Appraisat Committee (EAC) for,River Vattey and

hydroetectric Projects in iis meetings hetd on 30-31't March, 2012 &.1-2nd February, 2013-

The comments ani observations of EAC on the proposal may be seen in the minutes of the

meetings, which are avaitabte on the web-site of this Ministry.

3. tt is noted that the project envisages construction of a 121 m high concrete gravity

dam across river (165 m from the deepest foundation levet) Chenab to generate 930 MW

of hydropower. The catchment area of the project is 9987 Sq. Km. Totat tand requirementis about'416.25 ha, out of which 227.25 ha is forest [and, 40 ha is government land and

149 ha is private tand. Totat submergence area is about 331 ha. (Of which 155 ha isforesttand). An unflerground powerhouse is proposed with 6 units of 140 MW each + 90 MW

(2$b MW ; 1x10 MW) auxitiary dam-toe powerhouse facititate to release ofenvironmental ftows is atso proposed. About 15 famities witl be futty affected due to thisproject. Tota[ cost of the project is about Rs. 6087.48 Crores.

4. Based on recommendations of the EAC, the Ministry of Environment & Forestshereby accords ctearance for pre-construction activities at the proposed site as per theprovisions of 'the Environmental lmpact Assessment Notification, 2006 and subsequentamendment, 2009 atong with the fottowing Terms of Reference {TOR) for preparation ofEIA/EMP report. The EIA/EMP report shoutd contain the information in accordance withprovisions & stiputations as given in the Annexure-1. White preparing the EIA/EMP reportprevaiting norms shoutd be foltowed with respect to environmentat ftows, muck disposalsites and other parameters.

The Committee expressed its satisfaction over reduction in capacity from 990 MWto 930 MW as with this; land requirements and submergence area have come down,thereby saving Peddar vatley. The committee thus, agreed to the downward revision ofthe capacity of project to 930 MW subject to the fottowing conditions/additionat TORs:

. Keeping in view the proximity of protected forest [and, the Environmental Sensitivityis to be properly assessed and reftected in the EIA

o The EIA/EMP shoutd atso inctude the foltowing:

(i) Enumeration of atl ptant species betonging to atl groups, especiatty trees - number oftrees of eacli species and their volume in the submergence area; (ii) Studies onEconomic vatuation and Ecosystem Services will be carried out on the forest tost (iii)EMP: For Compensatory afforestation tree species affected in the forest witt be utitizedfor ptanting.

. Land cover and land-use pattern shoutd be given with Fatse Cotour Composition (FCC)o Flora of the Project Area: "29 taxa of flowering plants" appears to very [ow. Detaits

about Gymnosperms, Pteridophytes, shrubs and herbs are-to be presented in the EIAreport.

o The sampting locations are to be given.. Sampting tocations for ftorat/faunal studies appeared to be inadequate. Champion &

Seth (1968) shoutd be fottowed for forest typeso Environmental Evaluation: detaits of the environmentat evatuation should be given

and detaits of forest land/flora and fauna have to be presented in the EIA reporto Proposed Engineering and Biotogical measures: Use Coir mats - geotextiles on stopes

to prevent soil erosion and for raising plantations.. A study on environmentat ftow retease needs to be inctuded. Draw a separate cotumn

giving environmental ftow, spitt ftow, turbine ftow and ftow through the dam-toepowerhouse. Check the total retease d/s dam as per the prescribed norms. ln anycase retease of minimum environmental ftow must mimic the pre-dam flow patternof the river for sustaining the aquatic bio-diversity together with downstream userneed and accordingty, water withdrawal for power generation is to be regutated.Minimum environmental ftow retease would be 20Yo of average of four tean months oflean period and 20-30% of flows during non-tean and non-monsoon periodcorresponding to 90% dependabte year. The cumulative environmental ftow reteasesinctuding spittage during the monsoon period shoutd be about 30% of the cumulativeinflow during the monsoon periods corresponding to90/o dependabte year.

. The estimated PMF shown as 8140 cumec, whereas, the peak ftood hydrograph shows7440 cumce. This needs to be exptained/ reconciled in the EIA report.

5. The Consuttant engaged for preparation of EIA/EMP report has to be registeredwith Quatity Councit of lndia (QCI)/NABET under the scheme of Accreditation &Registration of MoEF. This is a pre'requisite.

6. Consultants shatt inctude a "Certificate" in EIA/EMP report regarding portion ofEIA/EMP prepared by them and data provided by other organization(s)/ laboratoriesinctuding status of approval of such laboratories.

7. The draft EIA/EMP report prepared as per the above Terms of References shoutdbe submitted to the State Potlution Control Board / Committee concerned forconducting Pubtic Hearing /Consuttation as per the provisions stiputated in EIA

Notification of 2006.

8. Att issues discussed in the Pubtic Hearing/Consuttations shoutd be addressed and

incorporated in the EIA/EMP Report. Final EIA/EMP report shoutd be submitted to theMinistry for Environmental Ctearance onty after incorporating these issues.

9. The TOR wi[[ remain vatid for a period of 2 years from the date of issue of thistetter for submission of EIA/EMP report atong with pubtic consuttation.

10. ln casq of any change in the Scope of the Project such as capacity enhancement,shifting of dam site/powerhouse and change in submergence etc., fresh scoping

ctearance has to be obtained by the project proponent.

11. lnformation pertaining to Corporate Environmental Responsibitity and

Environmentat Poticy shatt be provided in the EIA/EMP Report as per this Ministry'scircutar dated 19.5.2012.

12. This has approval of the Competent Authority.
