Since its creation in 1958 through an Act of


Parliament, Pakistan Water and Power
Development Authority (WAPDA) has been the
spear head for coordinated and unified
development of water and power sector. It is
an autonomous and statutory body under the
administrative control of the Federal Ministry
of Water & Power, Government of Pakistan.
The Authority derives its powers from the
Pakistan Water and Power Development
Authority Act, 1958 and consists of one
Chairman and three Members (Water, Power
and Finance). From its start, with the
implementation of the Indus Basin Settlement
Plan, signed between India and Pakistan in
1960, under the auspices of World Bank, to
develop replacement works for management
of river water and irrigation system, to date,
WAPDA has been the major contributor to the
progress of the country in the field of
engineering. These huge projects were
completed within stipulated time and cost.
Since then it has been engaged in building

water and hydropower development projects.


At its peak, WAPDA employed more than
150,000 work force and has been the biggest
employer of engineers in the country.
In 2007, the power transmission and distribution
network was unbundled and transferred to
Pakistan Electric Power Company (PEPCO)
under Ministry of Water & Power and the
distribution was tasked to different corporatized
companies. This has allowed WAPDA to
concentrate on developing of water resources
and reservoirs and hydel power generation as
well as operation & maintenance (O&M) of
hydel power stations. A Special Purpose Vehicle
Neelum Jhelum Company, was created to
undertake the Neelum Jhelum hydroelectric
project in AJ&K which is an engineering marvel
in itself. Presently WAPDA employs approx.
17,000 work force and is in final stage of start
of construction of two mega projects, namely
Diamer Basha and Dasu hydropower project
on the Indus river, upstream of Tarbela, as
well as numerous other projects given in this
report in detail.
WAPDA has an elaborate setup of housing
facilities, rest houses, hospitals, schools and
colleges, including staff training colleges as
well as sports complexes for its work force all
over Pakistan. It also maintains a security force
for the protection of its physical and human
assets. As part of its special initiatives and
social responsibilities, WAPDA employees more
than 1800 sports persons and its men and
women teams in 37 sports are top performers
in national and international sports. Most
important is the governments decision to
entrust WAPDA the task of creating awareness
of water conservation among the masses and
WAPDA is the torch bearer in this vital endeavor.
In line with its mandate, WAPDA has planned
to construct five multi-purpose water storage
dams during the next 3-12 years. The building

Increasing Operational Efficiency


WAPDA hydel power stations produced 31,554
Million Kilowatt Hour (KWh) net energy during
the Financial Year (FY) 2014-15, which is 32.4%
of the total hydel-thermal generation mix of
the power system. The preventive maintenance
of generating units was properly carried out
to ensure high availability and reliability of
cheap hydropower.
WAPDA rehabilitated the 22 Megawatt (MW)
Jabban Hydroelectric Power Station and
detailed design for up-gradation and
refurbishment of Mangla Power Station, has
also been completed. This envisages an
increase of 310 MW in the total current installed
capacity of 1000 MW, through optimum
utilization of additional water and higher head
available after completion of Mangla Dam
Raising Project. USAID provided a grant of
US$150 million for up-gradation of Units 5 &
6 and other miscellaneous works in the first
stage. PC-I has been approved and project is
under implementation.
For the rehabilitation, up-gradation and
modernization of Warsak Power Station, built
in 1960 in KP province, feasibility study and
detailed design has been completed which will
ensure the running of the plant at its full
capacity of 243 MW for another life cycle of 35
to 40 years.

For up-gradation of Renala and Chitral Hydel


Power Stations, from current 1 MW each to
4MW & 5 MW respectively, feasibility studies
are under progress.
Special repair and maintenance of Tarbela
Power Station is also being carried out under
FARA / USAID. PC-I for the project has been
submitted to Ministry of Water and Power which
is under scrutiny.
The unsung hero of WAPDAs initiatives is the
Watershed Management programme which
has yielded results and increased the life of
Mangla reservoir by another 30 years by
effectively controlling soil erosion and
sedimentation.

WAPDAs Developmental Role


It is indeed gratifying that WAPDA has chalked
out a long term programme called Water
Resources and Hydropower Development
Vision-2025. The basic objective of this
programme is to strengthen the economy by
storing and regulating available water and
enhancing the agriculture production apart
from generation of hydroelectricity. The
programme also intends to optimize the
development of water resources to meet the
future water requirements of the Indus Basin
Irrigation System and to meet the power needs
of the country. This multi directional
programme identifies 65 Million Acre Feet
(MAF) of water storage/reservoir potential and
35000 MW power potential for the country. It
covers all four provinces, as well as Gilgit
Baltistan and AJ&K. It envisages a
comprehensive programme for undertaking
feasibility studies, detailed engineering designs,
preparation of tender documents and execution
of numerous water and hydropower projects.
Vision 2025 is a national effort aimed at the
revival of economy, improve the hydel-thermal
mix of power generation and most importantly,
meet the urgent water requirements of the

05
WAPDA Annual Report 2014 - 15

of these dams will help address acute water


challenge and also produce cheap and clean
hydroelectricity. The phased induction of hydel
electricity in the national grid will even out the
energy mix and bring down the power tariff
and thus provide relief to the consumers. The
building of water storages will meet the water
requirements besides playing their role for
mitigation of flood hazards as well as control
sedimentation for downstream dams. The
following is a brief account of activities
undertaken by WAPDA:

Country. This has also revived WAPDAs


primary developmental role as laid down in its
charter of duties.
Detailed engineering design and tender
documents of Bunji (7,100 MW) and Phandar
(80 MW) hydropower projects have been
completed. Lower Palas Valley (665 MW), Lower
Spat Gah (496 MW) are being implemented on
Public-Private Partnership (PPP) mode.
Feasibility studies for Harpo (34.5 MW) and
Basho (40 MW) have been completed while
feasibility study of Patan (2200 MW), Thahkot
(4000 MW), Dudhnial multi-purpose dam project
(960 MW), Renala (4 MW) and Trappi multipurpose dam project (30 MW) are underway.
The design of Tangir Hydropower Project (15
MW) has been completed. WAPDA completed
the study on Lawi HPP (69 MW) but on the
request of Government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa
(KP), WAPDA handed over the feasibility study
and PC-I of the project to KP Government free
of cost for further action.

existing drainage system is underway which


will increase agricultural production in an area
of about 114,1209 acres. The works include
RBOD Indus Link, RBOD Extension up to Miro
Khan Zero Point, Rehabilitation of Rato Dero,
Miro Khan and Shahdadkot and Remodeling
of Main Nara Valley Drain (MNVD). RBOD-III
covering the areas of Nasirabad and Jaffarabad
Districts of Balochistan and Jacobabad,
Kambar-Shahdadkot at Kambar District of
Sindh will provide direly needed effluent
disposal facilities for existing and proposed
drainage projects. These works would increase
crop production of agricultural lands (wasted
due to ponds of water) and intensify cropping
as well as improve environmental conditions
of a gross command area of 709,536 acres.

WAPDA in Sports
WAPDA Sports Board (WSB), established in
1960, with ultimate goal to uplift the national
sports. Affiliated with Pakistan Olympic
Association in 1984, it has 15 Units namely
PESCO, IESCO, GEPCO, LESCO, FESCO,
MEPCO, HESCO, QESCO, NTDC, GENCOs,
HYDEL FORMATIONS, HEAD OFFICE, TESCO,
SEPCO and WATER WING, who are represented
on its Board.

These unit teams participate in Annual Inter


Unit Sports Competitions of 22 Men, 4 Women
& 4 Officers events. Presently WSB is managing
58 men and women sports disciplines
consisting of more than 1800 sports persons.
WAPDA is National Champion in 30 sports (17
Men, 13 Women) and Runners up in 16 sports
(10 Men, 6 Women) at National level. Conscious
of WAPDAs corporate social responsibility,
part of which was to enable the WAPDA Sports
Board (WSB) to provide jobs to sportspersons,
it was deemed that more was needed to
promote sports among the very young athletes,
at school level, to provide the nursery for
selected sports. Introduced in 2010 as WAPDA
Endowment Fund for Sports the main objective
of WEFS is to encourage the sports persons,
both boys and girls at the initial schooling stage
for their future development to become world
class athletes by giving them a stipend and
provide coaching, training, physical fitness and
dietary instruction as well as WAPDA sports
facilities. This scheme has been very successful
and youngsters from previous three inductions
have already shown their mettle by winning
top positions in national and international
competitions. In 2014-15 the effectiveness of
the WEFS program was analyzed and as guided
by Mr. Zafar Mahmood, Chairman WAPDA /
Patron in Chief WSB the WEFS scheme was
revamped introducing Athletic Colts, to have
more focus on athletics, being mother of all
sports and having transparent, measurable
key performance indicators (KPI) for selection,

training and monitoring and to provide equal


opportunity to boys and girls alike. WAPDA
Women Teams are National Champion in 13
sports disciplines i.e. Athletics, Badminton,
Basketball, Golf, Hockey, Judo, Ju-Jitsu, Karate,
Power lifting, Taekowando, Tennis, Volleyball
and Wushu and Runners up in 8 sports
disciplines i.e. Cycling, Football, Handball,
Judo, Water Polo, Table Tennis, Taekwondo
and Wushu. Similarly it was felt that an extra
mile has to be traversed in improving the fitness
of athletes as well as the fielding in cricket to
raise the standard by creating awareness of
the importance of these skills. For this purpose
WSB introduced new initiatives in the form of
Focus on Fitness & Fielding (FFF) and the T12 School Cricket format which rewards good
fielding and penalizes bad fielding
WAPDA acknowledges the dedication and
commitment of its personnel, the consultants
and contractors who are engaged in achieving
the required goals by working day and night
on various water projects as well as several
other hydel power projects, which are located
in hard and remote areas. WAPDA is further
grateful to its development partners World
Bank (WB), Asian Development Bank (ADB),
French Development Agency (AFD),
Kreditanstalt fr Wiederaufbau (KfW), Canadian
International Development Agency (CIDA),
Kuwait Fund, Saudi Fund, China Exim Bank,
Korean Investment Bank, Organization of the
Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), United
States Agency for International Development
(USAID), Japan International Cooperation
Agency (JICA) and Islamic Development Bank
(IDB) etc., as well as provincial and federal
departments, and appreciates the support
provided by various local and global
organizations.
In conclusion, I would like to emphasize that
conservation of water will have to go hand in
hand with development of reservoirs to thwart

planning and investment decisions at all levels.

private sector. Similarly, as a result of
restructuring of the Power Wing, the utility part
was corporatised into independent companies.
This shift from convergence to divergence gave
birth to 14 entities to operate in different zones.
These are National Transmission and Dispatch
Company (NTDC), four Thermal Power
Generation Companies (GENCOs) and nine
Distribution Companies (DISCOs). The present
status of these companies is of corporate public
limited entities under the residual Power Wing
is therefore now responsible for major hydroelectric power projects and schemes in
operation.

Pakistan is graciously bestowed with a bounty
of water resource. The snow-clad peaks of the
mountain ranges, in the North, generate the
fortune. The descending snow-melt and moon
soon water flow into the countrys largest Indus
River and its tributaries.
Passing through the plateau and the plain,
across the Indus Valley, the rivers embrace
the Arabian Sea, in the south.

WAPDAs role in the field of controlling water


logging and salinity aims at the life-saving

WATER WING

Irrigated agriculture being backbone of the


countrys economy, the sector is the major use
of water, consumption to continue to dominate
water requirements. About 104 Million Acre
Feet (MAF) out of 144* MAF (Post Tarbela
Average) of surface water is being, annually,
diverted to the Indus Basin Irrigation System.
This is around a century old worlds largest
man-made canal system. This provides
irrigation facilities to 46** Million Acres (MA).
The country has a large cultivable land base
of 85.81*** Million Acres (MA). Hence, the
irrigated land base at present corresponds to
53.60 percent of the total cultivable area 85.81
MA. Around 48 MAF is pumped from ground
water. Direct rainfall contributes less than 15
percent of the water supplied to crops.

With increasing population, Pakistan is fast


heading towards a situation of water shortage
and threat of famine. Per Capita surface water
availability was 5,260 Cubic Meters per year in
1951, which has reduced to 1032 Cubic Meters
per capita in 2015. The position is worsening
and with rapidly increasing population, this
may further drop to about 860 Cubic Meters
by 2025 representing acute water short
conditions. The minimum water requirement
to avoid food and health constraints due to
being a water short country is 1,000 Cubic
Meters per capita per year. Pakistan has thus
reached the stage of acute water shortage,
where people fight for every drop of water. This
calls for rapid development of additional water
resources to bring the potential over 20.30
Million Acres (MA) of virgin land under plough.
In the face of existing three storages (Tarbela,
Mangla and Chashma) rapidly losing their
capacities due to excessive sediment, 4.60 MAF
or 28 percent to loss of live storage year 2015,
more water storages for timely and adequate
irrigation releases to maximize crop production
has become all the more important.

INDUS BASIN SETTLEMENT PLAN


Conceived to resolve the water dispute between
the two neighbouring countries, Pakistan and
India agreed upon the historic Indus Basin
Settlement Plan (IBSP) in consonance with the
Indus Basin Treaty signed between the two parties
in 1960 under the auspices of the World Bank.
The IBSP acknowledges the proprietary rights
of Pakistan over water of the three Western
rivers, namely, Chenab, Jhelum and Indus and
provides water of the three Eastern Rivers
Sutlej, Beas and Ravi to India. In order to feed
the irrigation network of Pakistan, which is the
largest man-made canal system in the world,
in absence of the eastern rivers gone to India,
an elaborate civil works programme was
devised. The so designed Indus Basin Project
(IBP) gave birth to two large dams (Tarbela
and Mangla), five barrages, one gated syphon
and eight inter river link canals. Remodeling
of three existing link canals formed part of this
project to convey water of the western rivers
for diversion to irrigation canals off-taking from
the eastern rivers. The IBP involved largest
civil works ever undertaken in this part of the
world at that point of time.

of the biggest Earth & Rock filled dams of the


world. Main components of the project include
four embankments, two spillways, five powercum-irrigation tunnels and a 1000 MW Power
Station. Provision of 40 ft. raising of the dam
was made in its design at the time of
construction. Keeping in view the economical
and environmental viability, the dam has been
raised by 30 ft. whereas the maximum
conservation level of reservoir has been raised
by 40 ft.
The length of Main Dam after raising has
increased from 10,300 ft. to 11,150 ft. and
maximum height above core trench has
increased from 454 ft. to 484 ft. The gross and
live capacities of the Mangla reservoir after
raising are 7.475 Million Acre Feet (MAF) and
7.406 MAF respectively as per hydrographic
Survey-2012. Since first impounding in 1967,
sedimentation has reduced the gross storage
capacity of reservoir to the extent of 1.303
MAF. Main Spillway is capable of discharging
945,306 Cs at Raised Conservation Level of
1242 ft. SPD.

Reservoir Operation And Hydrology

WATER WING

WAPDA, in its infancy, executed all the sixteen


IBP components within the stipulated period
of time, of a decade except Tarbela Dam
completed in 1974 on behalf of the Government
of Pakistan. The replacement system came to
flourish the agriculture in Pakistan in the
following years, sustaining the countrys
agriculture-oriented economy and generation
of low-cost hydro-electric power from
multipurpose Tarbela and Mangla Dam projects.

All the projects when completed were handed


over to the respective provincial irrigation
departments except for Tarbela and Chashma
Dams, Chashma Barrage and ChashmaJhelum Link Canal which remain with WAPDA
for operation and maintenance (O&M)
purposes.

MANGLA DAM
Mangla Dam was constructed across river
Jhelum about 60 Miles South-East of the
Federal capital, Islamabad. The project is one

The reservoir was operated according to the


irrigation requirements as per indents of Indus
River System Authority (IRSA). The Reservoir
was filled up to 1242.00 ft. SPD level on
September 11, 2014 with a corresponding gross
capacity of 7.490 MAF. During draw down period
in 2014-15, the reservoir did not reach at dead
storage level i.e. 1040 ft. SPD. The minimum
draw down level was achieved on March 14,
2015 which was 1085.00 ft. SPD. Peak inflow
of 634,000 cusecs was recorded on September
05, 2014 at 1300 hours. Total rainfall at Mangla
was recorded as 47.66 inches during the year
2014-15. The main spillway was operated for
149 days during the year.

Monitoring And Surveillance


Instrumentation
Total 1120 instruments were originally installed
at the time of construction of Mangla Dam
Project within the vicinity of project structures
to check the pore water pressure and

settlement of the fill / foundation and lateral


displacement. Now 177 more instruments (90
Electrical Piezometers and 87 CG Pots) have
been installed during Mangla Dam Raising
Project and handed over to MDO Mangla. The
response of functional instruments remained
within the permissible limit during the year.

Seepage & Geology


The boils appeared through foundation sand
stone beds of Main Dam, Intake and Sukian
Dam were closely monitored and the seepage
intensities recorded and found no significant
change. The Boil No. BL-7 MD at Main Dam,
Artesian Well, New Seepage Point (CH: 237+50)
and discharge through drain trenches
downstream of Sukhian Dyke, are being closely
monitoring.

Hydrographic Survey
The hydrographic survey of Mangla Dam
Reservoir was carried out from September
2014 to January 2015, according to the report,
the gross and live storage capacities of Mangla
Reservoir at maximum conservation level 1242
ft. SPD is 7.475 MAF & 7.406 MAF respectively.

Seismicity

A total of 852 seismic events were recorded


within 500 Km around Mangla during the period
under report (July 2014 to June 2015). Among
these, 25 seismic events were located 50 Km
in the vicinity of Mangla reservoir. The
magnitude of these events ranges between 1.8
to 4.1 on Richter Scale. However, no earthquake
was felt at the Mangla reservoir. Therefore, no
Earthquake Drill has been initiated during the
period.
In the year 2014, the Mangla reservoir level
has been raised up to 1242 ft. SPD for the first
time. However, no significant change in
seismicity upto to micro level has been
observed in this reservoir raised scenario.

WATER WING

The telemetry micro-seismic network

comprising eleven remote seismic field stations


installed in and around Mangla remained in
operation satisfactorily for Seismic Monitoring/
Surveillance of the project. The seismic data
collected through eleven seismic stations of
this system indicates that this region is located
in active seismic environment. Moreover, six
numbers state of the art digital Accelerographs
installed in 2006 remained operational during

Modification of Spillway by Converting


Siphon to Radial Gated Structure

WAPDA Annual Report 2014 - 15

The contract for modification of Siphon spillway


to radial gated structure on EPC basis was
awarded to M/S DESCON ENGINEERING
LIMITED in January, 2014. The work completed
by the Contractor as per contract and Taking
Over Certificate (TOC) has been issued
accordingly on August 22, 2014.
The modified Rasul Spillway will operate the
gates automatically alongwith tripping of units
or rising of the head level beyond 788.5 ft.
irrespective of the discharge so that under no
conditions, the regulation and safety or

irrigation works could be endangered. In this


way, the reliability of spillway operation has
been increased by enabling the irrigation
authorities to release maximum water in RPC
for optimum generation.
Wet testing of Spillway gates through SCADA
system was carried out by the Contractor
(Descon Engg. Ltd, Lahore) on October 25, 2014
and jointly witnessed by the representatives of
WAPDA (ISRIP) and PMIU PID by passing 2000
cusecs through spillway.
Testing of spillway gates at 200 cusecs to 3000
cusecs is still required to be carried out. The
said testing could not be carried out due to
difference in discharge reading taken by Rasul
Hydel Power Station and concerned Irrigation
Department.
To address the issue, joint measurement of
discharge was carried out by PMIU PID and
ISRIP (WAPDA) but the outstanding issue could
not be settled so far.
After a series of correspondence a meeting
was held on June 19, 2015 at PID, chaired by
Secretary Irrigation Punjab. It was decided that
re-measurement of the discharge in PRC will
be carried out in July, 2015.

Shadiwal Hydel Power Station


Unit No. 2 remained under P.T.W from April
06, 2015 (0950 hrs) to June 04, .2015 (1100 hrs)
due to damage of its Oil Runner Blade Seals.
Damaged Seals have been replaced
successfully with spare healthy ones. After
removal of Stop Logs & necessary checking,
Unit was synchronized with the system at 1110
hours on June 04, 2015 with the load of 2.5 MW.
The Unit is running satisfactorily since then.

MANGLA WATERSHED MANAGEMENT


PROJECT
Mangla Watershed Management Project,
WAPDA is an on-going Scheme which was
launched in 1960 during the construction of
Mangla Dam, it was realized that the erosion
hazard in the catchment area was of alarming
nature and the high sediment inflow to Mangla
reservoir would rapidly deplete its water
storage capacity. It was therefore considered
that comprehensive watershed management
measures be taken in the catchment area of
Mangla Dam to control the rate of soil erosion,
and inflow of sediment into reservoir to prolong
its useful life.

Location
Project area falls in the district of Rawalpindi,
Jhelum of Pakistan and Muzaffarabad, Mirpur,
Kotli, Bagh & Rawalakot of Azad Jammu &
Kashmir.

Objectives/Importance/Benefits of the
Project
l

To prolong the useful life of Mangla


reservoir by applying Watershed
Management techniques

Watershed Management Measures

ii) Afforestation
Afforerstation of bare and denuded lands is
carried out to control sheet erosion caused by
surface run-off produce by rains. These
measures provide long term durability and
effectiveness against erosion
iii) Soil Conservation Structures
Check-dams - Reduce velocity of flow and
control erosion slopes
Diversion Walls - Check erosion on step slopes
by intercepting and diverting run-off safely to
adjacent channels
Diversion Channels - Constructed behind the
diversion walls for safe disposal of intercepted
water
iv) Engineering Structures
Silt Trap Storage - Gravity type stone masonry
Dams (3 to 6 m high) to reduce flood intensity,
contribute to ground water reservoir and water
storage for local use to stop deepening and
widening of nullahs, reclaim land and support
vegetation.

to 1764 cusecs supply to Pakistan Atomic


energy for its two plants C1 & C2. This water
is supplied continuously throughout the year
by impounding of water at Thal Regulator at
RD: 34+387. At RD:180+222 of C-J Link Canal,
Greater Thal Canal is off-taking to meet the
water requirement of Thal desert.
CJ-Link is an earthen channel, a large portion
of which is passing through sandy area. The
portion of the Canal from RD: 160 to RD: 215
is in filling causing a huge seepage which has
turned low lying area i.e. Adhikot, Chan and
Rangpur villages into water logging.

WATER WING

WAPDA installed 25 tube wells of 3 cusecs


each during 1971 in Adhikot area and 15
Nos.Tube Wells of 1.5 cusecs each in Chann
area during 1975 for anti water-logging
measures which are being operated and
maintained by Punjab Irrigation department.
In addition 21 Nos. Centrifugal pumps, having
total discharge capacity of 51.5 cusecs were
installed in 1985 at five different pumping
stations to minimize the pounding of seepage
water. These are being operated and
maintained by WAPDA along with its allied
structures and drains.

Indented irrigation water requirement of water


were met by diverting 2.314 MAF of Indus flow
to Jhelum River through Chashma Jhelum Link
Canal. The Canal was run and regulated for
214 days during the year 2014-15.
Beneficiaries of C-J Link Canal are Pakistan
Atomic Energy Commission (PAEC) and Punjab
Irrigation department. Two new nuclear plants
of PAEC C3 & C4 are near to completion. To
study the adequacy of Canal for the additional
discharge, it was recommended by CDO that
downstream restoration of Canal section be
done upto1000 ft. For this purpose stone
pitching is being carried out. The structure at
RD: 34+387 is being motorized for smooth
supply to PAEC and PAEC is funding to
complete the job. Routine maintenance of
structures, regulators and banks was continued
during this period. Old rain cuts were filled and
these were protected by stone filled gabion
spurs. Further protection was made by
Plantation of Gul-e-Abbasi, Narki and
Sarkanda. Drainage system was made more
efficient by de-silting of drains and for the
efficient disposal of seepage water new
submersible pumps were installed.

TARBELA DAM
Tarbela Dam, built under the historic Indus
Basin Settlement Plan, has greatly enhanced
the agricultural and industrial potential of the
country. It has now become a major support
to the countrys economy.

water from Tarbela storage. During the entire


operation period up to June, 2015 total of 337.190
MAF (416.228 BCM) water has been released
which in monitory terms would mean an input
to the National Economy worth Rs.182.07 billion.

The total cost including power units 1 to 14


was US $ 2.63 billion with local and foreign
currency components in almost equal
proportions. The rupee cost was met entirely
by Pakistan Government while Tarbela
Development Fund (TDF) was established in
1968 to take care of foreign currency
requirements. The balance amount available
from Indus Basin Development Fund (IDBF)
was diverted to RDF and bilateral loan
agreement was signed with European
countries, Canada and USA. Later in 1980,
agreement with Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Abu
Dhabi had to be entered to augment the fund.

Adding to it about 443.613 billion KWH electricity


has been generated, giving the benefits of
Rs.133.083 billion. The total benefits amount
to Rs.315.149 billion. These benefits have
already exceeded the cost of the project after
the first ten years of its operation. The existing
generating capacity will be enhanced by 3840
GWH (3.8 Billion KWH) after the completions
of Tarbela 4th Extension Project having
generation capacity of 1410 MW.

initiative was taken on Tarbela 4th Ext. HP with
World Bank funding. A Joint Venture of M/s Mott
MacDonald UK and Coyne-et-Billier France
with MMP-Pakistan & ACE-Pakistan known as
T4 CJV was appointed as the Engineer. The
Engineer came up with a scheme incorporating
two main features for the project, firstly raised
intakes for Tunnel 3 and Tunnel 4 that would
reduce the risks of silt inundation accumulating
in reservoir. Secondly, a downstream powerhouse
hosting three 470 MW generating units with
overall capacity of 1410 MW and Low Level Outlet
for emergency drawdown. Two main Civil and
E&M Contracts were signed with M/s Sino Hydro
Group Ltd. China and Consortium of Voith Hydro
Germany & Shanghai China on September 09,
2013 and February 14, 2014 respectively.
The project is considered a low hanging fruit
and it is a "low-risk-high-award" operation
aimed at providing over 3.84 billion units annually
of least cost low-carbon renewable energy. The
expected saving of Foreign Exchange of US $
900 million on import of one million tons of
furnace oil equivalent generation of electricity
from thermal resources. Tarbela capacity after
development of T4 will be 4888 MW. WAPDA is
keen to commission the project during 2017 to
utilize the available water during high flow period.

operated for peaking purpose during low flow
season. The proposed powerhouse will be
located between the service spillway and
existing Low Level Outlets (LLOs) upstream of
the Dhal Dara weir. A tailrace (culvert and
canal arrangement) is proposed that
hydraulically connects the 5EP draft tubes to
the Ghazi-Barotha headpond downstream of
Dhal Dara weir and utilizing the additional head
to provide additional generation. Due to the
increasing sedimentation of the Tarbela
Reservoir, the raising of the existing intake is
proposed to ensure the scheme operation well

Water Supply from Khanpur Reservoir


Water from Khanpur Reservoir is released
through two canals known as the Left Bank
Canal (LBC) and the Right Bank Canal (RBC).
The RBC which as a design discharge of 110
ft3/s is meant only for irrigation whereas the
LBC having a design discharge of 440 ft3/S,
supplies water both for irrigation as well as
municipal and industrial purposes. The Left Bank
Canal (LBC) at its tail delivers water to the
Sangjani Raw Water Reservoir which is operated
and maintained by the Capital Development
Authority (CDA) Islamabad. From the Sangjani
Raw Water Reservoir, CDA supplies water to
Islamabad and Rawalpindi after treatment.
The lengths of LBC and RBC are 18 Km and 11
Km respectively and the total area irrigated by
both canal systems in District Haripur of Khyber
Pakhtunkhwa and Districts Attock and
Rawalpindi of Punjab, is over 36,470 Acres. Both
the Left & Right Bank Canal Systems of Khanpur
Dam Project were handed over to the Provincial
Irrigation Departments of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa
and Punjab in 1985 and 1987 respectively. The
said Provincial Irrigation Departments are
responsible for O&M of these canals within their
respective jurisdiction. WAPDA is now only
responsible for the O&M of Khanpur Dam.
The beneficiaries of Khanpur Dam Project

GHAZI BAROTHA HYDROPOWER PROJECT


Introduction
The shortage of electrical power at affordable
cost has long been identified as one of the main
hurdle to the industrial and economic growth
of Pakistan. The demand for electricity is growing
rapidly and requires a considerable increase in
the rate at which new generating capacity is
introduced. Presently, demand is met through
a mix of thermal and hydroelectric plants. The
percentage of thermal power generation has
continued to increase in recent years, with a
noticeable impact on unit cost of generation.
WAPDA has continually sought to maximize the
countrys capacity for hydropower generation
and reduce the dependence upon thermal power
generation. Ghazi Barotha Hydropower Project
with a generation capacity of 1,450 MW and an
average energy output of 6,600 GWh is a large,
renewable and emission-free source of energy
towards WAPDAs Vision 2025 goals.

The Project

Ghazi Barotha Hydropower Project consists of


three main components, the Barrage, the
Power Channel and the Power Complex. The
Project utilizes the normal Tarbela Dam
releases to provide year round maximum power
generation during the daily hours of peak
demand, including the months of May and June
when reservoirs of Mangla and Tarbela Dams
are historically at their lowest. This enhances
the capacity of the whole power system by
providing much needed relief in the form of
cheap hydel energy.

The Barrage
The Barrage located 7 Km downstream of
Tarbela Dam, provides a pond which reregulates the daily discharge from Tarbela by
diverting the flow into the Power Channel. The
principal features include 20 Nos. Standard
Bays, 8 No. Undersluices and 8 No. Head
Regulator Bays in addition to rim
embankments, fuse plug and dividing island.
The Barrage can pass the design flood of 18,700
cumecs, equivalent to the flood of record,
through the standard bays and undersluices

WATER WING

Ghazi Barotha Hydropower Project is located


on the Indus River downstream of Tarbela Dam.
The Project utilizes the hydraulic head available
between the tailrace at Tarbela Dam and the
confluence of the Indus and Haro Rivers for
power generation. In this reach Indus River
drops by 76 m in a distance of 63 Km. This

Project possesses the minimum of


environmental and social impacts.

WAPDA Annual Report 2014 - 15

Ghazi Barotha Hydel Power Station

at the normal pond level of El. 340 m. The fuse


plug has been provided to pass the extreme
flood up to the capacity of Tarbelas spillway
and tunnels equaling 46,200 cumecs.

The Power Channel


Ghazi Barotha Hydropower Project holds the
record for the biggest lined channel in the
world. The channel is 51.90 Km long with a
concrete lining and design flow of up to 1,600
cumecs at a water depth of 9 m and a bottom
width of 58.4 m.
The power channel has a nearly contour
alignment with hills on the left side and the
land naturally draining towards the Indus River
on the right side. The power channel intercepts
53 nullahs (natural drains) of which 27 major
nullahs have been passed over the power
channel by providing super-passages. The
remaining 24 minor nullahs are being
discharged into the power channel through
individual inlets while one nullah is passing
underneath the channel through a culvert.
In addition to the 34 road bridges, including
bridges for both Islamabad-Peshawar
Motorway and the G.T. Road, there are 12
pedestrian crossings over the power channel.
The main railway line joining Rawalpindi to
Peshawar also crosses the power channel and
requires the construction of the second largest
single span railway bridge in Pakistan. This
may be the last riveted bridge of its type,
constructed in Pakistan.

WATER WING

The Power Complex

WAPDA Annual Report 2014 - 15

52

The power complex having two headponds with


a combined live storage capacity of
approximately 25.5 million cubic meter, is
sufficient for the daily requirement of 4 hours
peak generation. This means that in May and
June when there is reduced generation from
Tarbela and Mangla power houses, due to low
reservoir levels, Ghazi Barotha provides peak
production of 1,450 MW.
The five generating units in the Power house
are each fed by a 10.6 m diameter steel lined

penstock. Each of the five 290 MW Turbo


Generators can take a peak flow of 460 cumecs.
Power complex has been provided with a self
priming siphon spillway of 1600 cumecs
capacity, having energy dissipation in a stilling
basin and a baffle chute.
The power transmission is through 500 kV
double circuit lines to WAPDAs national grid
system.

Mechanical and Electrical Equipment


The installed generating capacity is 1,450 MW,
consisting of five units each of 290 MW. The
units have a design flow of 400 cumecs at
optimum gate opening and 460 cumecs at full
gate opening for a design head of 69 m.
The principal items of power equipment are
as follows:
Five Francis turbines each with a 290 MW
generator which together have a combined
power generating efficiency of 94%.
l Five three-phase banks of transformers,
each single-phase unit being 107.5 MVA.
l 500 kV conventional outdoor switchgear
configured in one-and-a-half breaker
arrangement.
l 12 cranes with lifting capacities from 6 to
450 tones.

Environmental, Resettlement and Social


Aspects
The guiding principle for Ghazi Barotha
Hydropower Project has been to maintain close
contact between the engineering and
environmental planners, social scientists, the
local community groups and NGOs right from
the feasibility stage to Project construction.
This process allowed the planning teams to
identify and avoid or mitigate all potentially
serious adverse environmental, social and
archaeological affects. The locations for
Barrage and Power Complex as well as the
alignment of the Power Channel has been
selected in such a way that it avoids where
possible, the disruption of villages, cultural

The power channel alignment is mostly in cut,


having a total of 76 million cubic meter of
excess spoil material extracted out of the
channel excavation. To avoid hauling the
material over long distances, the spoil material
has been used for construction of spoil banks
along the power channel, terracing of waste
land, reclamation of land along the left bank
of Indus River and filling of deep gullies, while
providing an environmentally satisfactory
permanent solution. The spoil banks and gullies
have been leveled, covered with top soil and to
be provided with tube well irrigation. It has
been planned to sell back these developed
banks to the interested affectees for cultivation
purposes.
Against this disruption to the local community
the construction works employed about 13,500
local people and many local companies. Over
the course of the construction this influx of
capital into the local economy has had a
significant effect on improving the business
opportunities and economic growth particularly
in the project area.
To avoid the environmental concerns of the
people residing along the banks of Indus River
downstream of Ghazi Barrage, compensation

Project Implementation
In the Feasibility Report, the time for Project
implementation of Civil and M&E contracts
was estimated as 63 months starting from April
01, 1993. With the approval of PC-1 of
Preparatory Works including land acquisition,
relocation, resettlement, construction of
colonies and other infrastructure for the Project
were commenced in 1995. The implementation
of the Project ultimately came to fruition with
the inauguration ceremony of the
Commissioning of Unit No. 1 and Unit No. 2 on
August 19, 2003 by the President of Pakistan.
The work on the commissioning of other units
continued and Unit No. 5 was commissioned
in April, 2004. The construction of the North
Headpond was completed in December, 2004,
thus completing the implementation of the
Project works.

Project Financing
The PC-1 of the Project was approved by

At the time of original construction of Mangla


Dam, land on the periphery of Mangla Reservoir
was acquired up to El 1210.00 ft. (368.9 m). For
the raised Mangla Reservoir, additional land
up to El 1250.00 ft. (381.1 m) measuring 16,384
acres (6,630 ha), has mostly been acquired.
Out of this about 79 % of the land is in Azad
Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) and the remaining
21 % is in Punjab. By raising of the Mangla
Dam, about 50,000 persons are being displaced
and about 13,640 houses and other buildings
are affected.

For resettlement of displaced population, a


New City adjacent to the existing Mirpur City
is being developed with modern infrastructure
and public amenities. In addition, four Small
Towns adjacent to the existing Towns of
Islamgarh, Chaksawari, Dudial and Siakh are
also being developed on periphery of the
Mangla Reservoir for the Project affectees near
their original habitat. Development of
infrastructure of the New City and four Small

DIAMER BASHA DAM PROJECT


The Project
The project is located on Indus River, about
315 Km upstream of Tarbela Dam, 180 Km
downstream of the Gilgit-Baltistan capital Gilgit
city and 40 Km downstream of Chilas city (refer
location map). The proposed RCC dam would
have a maximum height of 272 m, and impound
a reservoir of about 8.1million acre feet (MAF),
with live storage of 6.4 MAF. Mean annual
discharge of Indus River at the site is 1977
cumecs. The dam will impound 15% of the
annual river flow. The project would cover an
area of 110 Km2 and the reservoir would extend
100 Km upstream of the dam site upto Raikot
Bridge on Karakoram Highway (KKH).

Need of the Project


Agriculture is the backbone of Pakistans
economy. Pakistan today is among one of the
Worlds fastest growing population, now
estimated as over 180 million. Due to lack of
large river regulation capability through sizeable
storages, the country is already facing serious
shortages in food grains. Given the present
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.
It is estimated that by year 2016 Tarbela, Mangla
and Chashma reservoirs will loss more than
6.6 MAF due to sedimentation, almost equal
to the original combined capacity of Mangla
and Chashma reservoirs. Due to state of
stalemate in the development of additional
sizable multi-purpose storage projects in the
system after commissioning of Tarbela Dam
in 1976, sustainability of existing irrigated
agriculture of Pakistan is in serious jeopardy.
In addition the present peak demand of
electricity in country is above 20,000 MW, which
is estimated to cross 30,000 MW by the year
2017. A large-scale injection of dependable,
cheap and renewable energy thus becomes
inevitable. The Hydropower projects will provide
the dependable power/energy at affordable
price. Contribution of 4500 MW power from
Diamer Basha Dam will go a long way in
alleviating this situation.

Need of the Project


Pakistan is blessed with hydel potential of above
60,000 MW, mostly located in Khyber
Pakhtunkhwa, Gilgit-Baltistan and Azad Jammu
and Kashmir. Out of this only 12% has been

exploited so far. In the years 1960-70 the share


of hydel & thermal power generation was 65%
to 35% which has almost gone reverse in the
power system due to non-construction of any
mega hydel project. The imbalance between
hydel and thermal has increased the demand
of imported fuels and severely affected balance
of payment. The high tariff rates of IPPs are
consuming major share of revenue and have
also caused immense increase in overall
electricity tariff rates. Despite major share in
power mix system, the thermal plants are unable
to cope with electricity demand due to de-rated
capacity as a result of shortage of fuels (gas
and furnace oil) and spare parts for old plants.
In the prevailing situation of severe load shedding
even in winter season warrants construction of
mega hydel projects like Dasu, Diamer Bhasha
and Bunji Hydropower Project in the near future.
Dasu Hydropower Project will have an installed
capacity of 4,320 MW and provide annual energy
of 21,485 GWh. The implementation of the
project will increase the generation capacity
and the hydel share in the generation mix
system which is presently dominated by
thermal power. Induction of Dasu in the power
system contributes to achieve an affordable
electricity tariff objective. This will also help to
ease the energy crisis in the country and
improve the closed working units of industry
and balance of payment.

Project Implementation Strategy


The Project will be constructed into two Stages
(Stage-I & II):
Stage-I: It includes construction of complete
RCC Dam with Appurtenant Structures,
Underground Powerhouse with Appurtenant
Structures, Six (06) Turbo-generators with total

implementation regarding recommendation
was reviewed and inspection report has been
issued. Monitoring of the project remained in
progress. The instrumentation, movement and
sedimentation data was analyzed in detail.
The project is playing vital role in supplying
144, 000 AF water for municipal and industrial
use to Islamabad / Rawalpindi, total allocation

As per last hydrographic survey-2014 the gross,


live and dead storage have reduced from
107,076 AF to 88,092 AF, 91,562 AF to 799,980
AF and 15,514 AF to 8,112.67 AF respectively
since impounding. These results indicated that
17.73%, 12.65% and 47.70% loss has taken
place in gross, live and dead storage in 31
operational years of the project.

Mangla Dam
Due to late heavy monsoon rains in first week of
September, 2014, hydrologic conditions favoured
and a milestone of attaining a reservoir level of
1242 ft. was achieved for the first time on
September 09, 2014. Reservoir level stayed for
19 days at maximum conservation level enabling
to utilize 2.88 MAF of additional water alongwith
power benefits to improve national economy.
During this period, peak inflow recorded was
6,34,000 cfs on September 05, 2014 while
maximum outflow was recorded as 4,99,264 cfs.
Dam Safety Organization (DSO) team remained
fully engaged in monitoring and physical
inspection of the project areas during
impounding. Further, Dams monitoring team
has acquired all piezometric and seepage data
for the impounding period and reviewed
critically for any deviation from normal
behaviour. It is inferred from the physical
inspection, monitoring and analysis of relevant
data that the condition of Mangla Dam and all
other allied structures remained satisfactory
during filling upto maximum conservation level
of 1242 ft. and during drawdown.

Chashma Barrage
Annual Inspection of the project was carried
out in January, 2015. Detail report of the

operating level (MOL) was fixed as 1380 ft.
Previously it was 1378 ft. Whereas, pivot point
of delta is at 1382 ft.

including irrigation is 250,000 AF. The original


gross storage capacity of reservoir was 107076
AF. The rate of loss is 612.5 AF per annum as
per 2013 hydrographic survey.

WAPDA Annual Report 2014 - 15

Monitoring of the project remained in progress.


According to the hydrographic survey conducted
during SeptOct, 2014, total sediments
deposition in the reservoir was 4.232 MAF. The
gross storage capacity of the reservoir has
reduced by 36.42% i.e from 11.62 MAF to 7.388
MAF whereas live storage capacity has reduced
by 33.52% i.e from 9.679 MAF to 6.434 MAF.
During the year 2013-14, sediment deposition
in reservoir was 96.427 MST (0.053 MAF) as
compared to average annual deposition of
193.804 MST (0.106 MAF). Maximum inflow was
293,000 cfs on July 28, 2014. The hydrographic
survey-2014 shows that delta remained at its
position i.e. at a distance of 5.45 Miles from
main embankment dam whereas its elevation
remained at 1382 ft. because the reservoir did
not deplete to minimum operating level of 1380
ft., it reached to 1387 on May 31, 2014.

According to last hydrographic survey of reservoir


carried out in year 2012, the original gross storage
capacity of reservoir at maximum conservation
level 649 ft. has reduced from 0.870 MAF to 0.348
MAF, previously it was 0.321 MAF. The increase
in storage capacity between previous and latest
survey is due to super flood in 2010.

Introduction
Master Planning & Review Division (MP&RD)
was created in WAPDA in 1976 to provide a
sound basis for long term planning and
implementation of the Government investment
programme in the fields of irrigation & drainage,
saline soil reclamation and flood protection.
The study undertaken by MP&RD resulted in
preparation of Revised Action Programme (RAP)
for irrigated agriculted (1979) interalia creation
of a multi disciplinary organization for
independent continuation of master planning
activities. The organization would continuously
adjust and review the revised action programme
which will also provide information for annual
and mid-term plans. The Perspective Planning
Organization now called Water Resources
Planning Organizations (WRPO) already
established was allowed to continue working

TELEMETRY PROJECT FOR INDUS


BASIN IRRIGATION SYSTEM
Indus Basin Irrigation System

WATER WING

Pakistan has agrarian based economy. It has


one of the largest contiguous irrigation systems
in the world which is fed by Indus River and its
tributes. The Indus Basin Irrigation System
comprises of two large reservoirs, 19 barrages
for diverting river water into canals, 12 inter
river link canals and 46 independent canals
commands delivering water to farm lands.
WAPDA controls the operations of reservoirs
where as the operation of barrage is controlled
by the Provincial Irrigation Department.

WAPDA Annual Report 2014 - 15

100

A Water Apportionment Accord (WAA-1991) exits


for distribution of Indus Basin waters among
the provinces. The Indus River System Authority
(IRSA) was established for ensuring distribution
of Indus water to be in accordance with WAA1991. IRSA finalizing the apportionment of water
to the provinces as per WAA-1991 and passes
decision to the regulating authorities for water
releases at dams and barrages. Water into
irrigation system is regulated as per decision
of IRSA at dams and barrages being
operated/controlled by WAPDA and provincial
I&P Departments. However, there is no mean
of verification of compliance to IRSA decision.

Need for Telemetry System and Approval


by ECNEC
There have been growing and a repeated
complaint by the provinces of misreporting of
actual flows/discharges by the local barrage
authorities to IRSA. There was no system of
verification that instructions of IRSA regarding
water distribution have been compiled correctly
by the local barrage operating authorities.
Accordingly a project proposal for installation
of a telemetry system on IBIS was submitted
by IRSA to Government of Pakistan. In May
2002, the PC-1 for the Telemetry Project for
Indus Basin Irrigation System (TPIBIS) was
approved by ECNEC at a cost of Rs. 450 million
and also decided that the project be executed
by WAPDA and handed over to IRSA for
operation and maintenance (O&M) and that
IRSA should build its capacity for O&M.

The Project Features


The Telemetry system has been installed at 24
locations of the Indus Basin Irrigation System
for providing real time (on line) information of
flow at the dams and barrages minimizing the
human interface in data acquisition, its
processing and transmission for monitoring
at 9 locations by the stakeholders i.e. Ministry
of Water & Power, IRSA, PIDs and WAPDA.
The amount of flows/discharges through a
dam/barrage is calculated at the respected dam
or barrage site by reading the essential
parameters of flow equation through electronic
sensor. The telemetry system / network
comprises about 2600 electronic sensor for
measuring water level and gate positions at the
remote sites that provide the information instantly
through programmable transmission to the main
and other monitoring sites (stakeholders) in real
time around the clock. The discharge data of
IBIS from the Telemetry system is also available
on the internet at the website .

Project Execution / Operation and


Maintenance
The TPIBIS was executed by WAPDA through
a contract with M/s Siemens Pak Engineering
Ltd. at a cost of Rs.285 million. The project on
completion and testing was handed over to

IRSA for O&M in September, 2004. However,


IRSA could not build required capacity for the
O&M for the system. Therefore due to improper
O&M, the telemetry system did not perform to
executions and various problems cropped up.
After the inspection of the system the
Chairman, Prime Minister Inspection
Commission (PMIC) in consultation with IRSA,
entrusted the O&M of the telemetry system to
WAPDA. Accordingly, a new organizational
setup has been established by WAPDA under
the Superintending Engineer by WAPDA. The
main monitoring of the telemetry system is
located at the premises of CMTL, WAPDA,
Raiwind road, Lahore.

Appraisal by International Consultant

Present Status
Presently, 15 Nos. Telemetry data acquisition
sites are being kept operational by using spares
from other non-priority sites because of budget
constraints.

SURFACE WATER HYDROLOGY PROJECT


The Planning & Monitoring of water resources
is vital for its efficient use. It becomes more
important when reviewed in the context of
scarce water resources. For quantification of
such resources, systematic collection and
valuation of surface water data is to be ensured.
These data, set direction for the planners to
ensure its optimum utilization.
Surface Water Hydrology Project, WAPDA is
responsible for the collection, analysis,
processing and publication of the
hydrometeorological, sediment and chemical
data of major rivers and Nullahs of Pakistan

WATER WING

For checking the authenticity of the telemetry


data, IRSA started comparing it with data of the
existing manual system. As per PC-1, the manual
data was declared unreliable in the first instant
on numerous counts. To resolve the issue, the
Ministry of Water & Power appointed as
international consultant of World Bank for
appraisal of the system and suggesting measures
for making the data acceptable by stakeholders.
The international consultant inspected system
in June, 2007 and observed that the equipment,
technology and system are adequate to the task

and suggested certain improvements in telemetry


system to make the data usable to IRSA, part of
which related to WAPDA has been implemented.
The international consultant also declared that
the telemetry system is delivering as requested
in IRSAs PC-1 and is responding to the issues
that initiated it.

ARMY, PMD, P&D, NHA, GOP and WAPDA for
flood forecasting and designing of new
hydraulic structures in addition to projects
included in Vision 2025.
During the year 2014-15, 3 No. annual
publications as per detail attached were
completed and hydrometeorological data from
192 Nos. hydromet stations (regular & deposit
work both) located in far flung areas across the
country was collected for Mangla, Tarbela, Gazi

102 GLACIER MONITORING RESEARCH


CENTRE (GMRC)
Background
The Cryosphere (glacier and snow regime) of
Upper Indus Basin (UIB) is a major source of
the Indus River and its tributaries. WAPDA

initiated hydrologic investigations into this


region in early sixties by installing river gauging
network and valley bottom weather stations.
Snow surveys were also carried out in the
Kaghan valley from 1961 to 1969. From 1971
to 1974, WAPDA estimated run off from UIB
Cryoshpere using Remote Sensing. Later, from
1985 to 1989, WAPDA in collaboration with
Canadian Universities carried out UIB snow
and glacier field studies to develop flow
forecasting system for UIB Rivers.
High-Altitude Weather & Hydrologic Modeling
During 1991-1997, WAPDA established highaltitude (2200-4800 m.a.s.l.) network
comprising 20 weather stations for collection
& transmission of hourly data on temperature,
precipitation, relative humidity, wind, solar
radiation and snow water equivalent. This is
one of worlds highest (elevation) automated
weather data collection and quasi-real-time
transmission network installed in glacier
melting zone.
The high-altitude data and UBC Watershed Model
are being used for forecasting flows on seasonal
(Rabi and Kharif) and short-term (10-Daily) basis
since 2003 for better water management of Indus
River System. The seasonal and 10-daily flow
forecasts for Indus River at Tarbela, Kbaul River
at Nowshehra and Jhelum River at Mangla are
provided to the Indus River System Authority
(IRSA), WAPDA authorities at Tarbela Dam,
Chashma Barrage and Mangla Dam and the
Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) on
regular basis.
In 1991, WAPDA in collaboration with University
of Colorado, Boulder (USA) carried out a study
on impacts of climate change on the Indus
River System using the UBC Watershed Model
and Global Circulation Models. Furthermore
in 2012, the Snowmelt Run off Model (SRM)
was applied to the Mangla Dam catchment
(Jhelum River) for flow forecasting with very
encouraging results. SRM would now be used
for Kabul and Chenab rivers.

Glacier Monitoring Program


Climate change poses new challenges as it

1. Data Processing and Flow Forecasting.


Data from GMRCs high-altitude weather
network was processed and used in the
UBC Watershed Model for forecasting
seasonal flows as well as 10-daily flows
for Indus River, Kabul River and Jhelum
River during 2014-15. The flow forecasts
were sent to IRSA and PMD.
2. Field Activities
GMRC started its field investigations on
medium sized glaciers Passu, Miar,
Sumiyarbar and Barpu located in Hopper
Valley, Hunza. GMRC has procured 6
automatic field weather stations and 2 river
level stations and used them on Passu,
Sumiyarbar and Miar Glaciers- Central
Hunza, for studies in 2012, 2013 and 2014
summer seasons.
a. GMRC Field Investigation Team
conducted the following activities for 3
weeks in April-May 2015: installing
automatic river level station at Hoppar
River Nagar Hunza; downloaded AWS
data installed near Barpu Glacier
carried out snow survey and glacier

b. From 1st to 18th June, the GMRC Field


Investigation team carried out the
following activities in Hunza Valley in
collaboration with Glaciologist from
ITP-CAS China: glacier stake melt
recording discharge measurements
determining glacier depth profile using
GPR (Ground Penetrating Radar).
c. The GMRC Field Office at Skardu became
operational w.e.f June 15, 2015 after
recruitment of WAPDA Incremental Staff.
d. A major expedition to one of the largest
Upper Indus glaciers i.e., Biafo Glacier,
has been initiated in June to carry out the
following activities spread over a period
of 75 days: discharge measurements at
Biafo snout and installation of Automatic
River Level Station and staff gauges;
determining the ablation and surface
velocity under ambient climatic and
environmental conditions through
installation of three cross profiles at
Baintha Camp (El.4100 meters), Mango
Camp (El.3500 meters) and near
equilibrium line (El.4500 meters);
installation of Automatic Weather Stations
at the center of cross profiles and one
manual weather station near the
moraines and installation of (initially) 7
stakes 100 m elevation apart along center
line of glacier to determine the ablation
gradient of the glacier.

CENTRAL DESIGN OFFICE (WATER) WAPDA


Background
The Water and Power Development Authority
(WAPDA) was established by the Government
of Pakistan in 1958 to undertake the coordinated development of water and power
resources of Pakistan. Being a new and
developing organization, the WAPDA did not
possess, then, its own expertise to carry out
various responsibilities entrusted to it. WAPDA
initially engaged foreign consultants for
planning and detailed designs of development
projects, but later on realized the need to
develop its own engineering services in order
to minimize its dependence on foreign
consultants and for development of indigenous
technical skills. In this process of self reliance,
Central Design Office (Water) was established
in August, 1961.
Central Design Office (Water) started its long
journey with a small organizational setup and
grew up into a full fledged Civil Engineering
Design Office with passage of time. The office
with multi-layered expertise in different
disciplines of Civil Engineering and
Architecture is currently headed by a General
Manager. The targeted objectives of the
CDO(W) are as under:

based on 2006 price level. Even the amount of


awarded Contract was Rs. 90.90 billion which
implied the need for revision.

Design & Technical Variations


After the award of the Construction Contract, in
January, 2008, WAPDA through ICB selected a
consortium of 2 International and 3 Local firms
to work as M/s Neelum Jhelum Consultants (NJC)
for the Project. As an aftermath of devastating
Earthquake of October 08, 2005 the Consultants
as a part of their assignment reviewed the tender
design and undertook additional studies and
investigations. The design review identified many
areas of concerns requiring design changes which
resulted in increased quantities and additional
work items with additional financial implication.
The design changes were mainly due to:
i . Higher seismic factor dictated by the
Earthquake of October 08, 2005, which is
now 1.16g for Maximum Credible
Earthquake (MCE) against 0.60g adopted
in the tender design.
ii. T e c h n i c a l r e a s o n s , t o b r i n g t h e
improvement in design parameters which
were initially assumed and to take into
account other aspects.

Contractor
The construction contract was awarded to M/s
CGGC-CMEC consortium of China at contract
cost of Rs.90.90 billion.

The original PC-I was approved by ECNEC on


February 28, 2002 for Rs.84.502 billion including
FEC of Rs.46.6677 billion. As a result of various
design as well as other changes, 2nd Revised
PC-1 amounting to Rs.274.882 billion was
framed for which ECNEC approval is awaited.

Design and other Variations which


Resulted Increase in Cost
Variations which have resulted in increase in
cost are as under:

Difference in price level


The 1st Revised PC-I was based on 2001 price
level. The Contract for the execution of the
work was awarded in 2007 and its prices were

The major Design changes which form the


major part of this additional cost include:
l Change in the height and design of dam to
increase reservoir capacity, pass Probable
Maximum Flood (PMF) without overtopping
and eliminate peaking storage in Tunnel.
l Composite concrete- embankment dam to
cope with fault movement.
l Cross sectional area of Headrace Tunnel
has been increased as a result of fresh
studies carried out by the present
consultants to avoid any risk of head loss/
loss of power generation.
l Originally, water was to pass through
Shotcrete Tunnels which could result in
maintenance problems and head loss.
Therefore, instead of Shotcrete Tunnel, the
Concrete Lining has been introduced in the
Headrace Tunnel (except TBM excavated
tunnels) to reduce head loss and eliminate
other concerns.

Procurement of Two Tunnel Boring


Machines (TBMs)

than the additional cost being incurred. The


cost being incurred on two TBMs will be
reimbursed within three months of the
commencement of the project. Besides, there
would be colossal direct and indirect benefits
of the Project. The TBMs could be deployed on
future projects (Kohala, Dasu etc).

HSFO Generators
WAPDA was required to provide uninterrupted
power supply to the Contractor at three
locations. Total power requirement at Project
sites is 22.8 MW, whereas only 13.4 MW is
available. The available electricity (13.4 MW) is
also of poor quality and mars with unscheduled
load shedding. Power load shedding and
shortage would have greatly extended the
construction period. Besides that voltage
fluctuations experienced at site most of the
time are risk to the Contractors equipment.
In view of the prevailing conditions WAPDA /
BoD NJHPC approved the procurement of
three (3) No. 4 MW capacity WARTSILA Diesel
generators at the cost of US$ 20.49 million
(Rs.1.23 Billion) as well as O&M cost for five
years, which is estimated as Rs.6.22 billion.
After the Project completion, the generators
can be used for other Projects.

In view of the design changes, explained earlier,


the scope of work enhanced (increased
diameter of Tunnels, new design of Dam,
Shifting of Power House location etc.,
Consultants revealed that with this increased
scope of work, the Project was likely to be
completed beyond 2018. Excavation of the
Headrace Tunnel is a critical activity and its
excavation, due to enhanced scope of
excavation, was delaying the Project completion
from 2016 to 2018. On the basis of
recommendations of the Project Consultants,
WAPDA Advisors, Panel of Experts deliberation
and post visit report to Gothard Tunnel
Switzerland by high level delegation, two Tunnel
Boring Machines (TBMs) have been deployed.
The Drill and Blast method and TBM demining
have been synchronized to complete the
Headrace Tunnel in 30 months. The cost of two
TBMs is US $ 92.2 million.

Interest During Construction

It is estimated that the benefits from early


operation of the Project will be much more

Increased as compared to 1st Revised approved


PC-I from Rs.29.1 billion to Rs.33. 44 billion
due to increase in total cost.

Escalation
There was no provision for this essential item
in 1st Revised PC-I. Provision of Rs.17.85 billion
has been made as per Planning Commission
guidelines.

Enhanced Cost for Foreign Exchange


Components
The provision of Rs.37.2 billion has been made
for the Enhanced Cost (Actual) for FEC year
2007-2008 to 2010-2011 due to variation in
Dollar Exchange Rate to the actual additional
cost up to year 2010-2011 and beyond on the
rate of 1 US $ = Rs. 86. No such provision was
there in 1st Revised PC-I.

WATER WING

To avoid long shutdowns during


maintenance period, Shallow Jhelum River
Crossing instead of deep crossing, for
natural draining of Tunnel and providing
steel lining in the Tunnel under Jhelum
River to guard against hydro jacking failures.
Keeping in view the seismic concerns and
for providing additional storage, design of
steel gates of various components was
changed.
Design of electric equipment carried out
in 1996 / 97 included in the approved PC-I
was based on technology, which is outdated
now. In the revised design the Consultants
have proposed equipment in line with the
state of the art technology.
Provision for two spare runners for the
Turbines of the Power house to avoid
extended shutdown of turbines in case of
maintenance of original runners.

The International Waterlogging and Salinity


Research Institute (IWASRI), was established
under Ministry of Water and Power (MOWP)
Government of Pakistan in 1986, to conduct
and coordinate research pertaining to
waterlogging, salinity, irrigation and drainage.
The Administrative control of IWASRI was given
under WAPDA.

(a) Environmental improvement through


eradication of waterlogging and salinity
(b) Increasing agricultural productivity of
marginal lands and poor quality water
environment
(c) Poverty alleviation
(d) Capacity building and human resource
development

Research work under the approved PC-II


initiated in the year 2009 up to 2013 which was
extended up to June 30, 2015 included three
research studies. The PC-II is being jointly
executed by IWASRI and its two allied
organizations i.e. Mona Reclamation
Experimental Project (MREP) and Lower Indus
Water Management & Reclamation Research

Huge investment is being made in the water


sector to meet the requirements of everincreasing population of Pakistan. Full benefits
of these investments can only be achieved
when these are linked with knowledge-based
research. Therefore, research is an integral
part of water sector investment being planned

(i) Drainage Section


Study: Ground Water Management (Recharge
Potential and Governance)
In depth analysis of available surface and
ground water resources and the population
increase (2.03% per annum) indicates that the
country is continuously approaching the low
level limits of per capita water availability
(presently 1000 m3 per/person/year). Due to
almost cessation position regarding
development of large dams, the additional
water consumption is being met from the
aquifers; as a consequence unprecedented
depletion of the resource is an emerging issue.
Similarly, increasing water stress has already
rang the alarm to look into the reasons for
persistent waterlogged conditions (Figure 1)
and emerging situation of excessive
groundwater depletion in certain other areas
e.g. lower and central parts of Bari Doab and
urban area of Lahore in Punjab, with depletion
rates of 16-55 cm/year and 40-150 cm/year,
respectively. Similarly, the people in Thar area
constantly facing food and water shortage
situation since many years. However, the

drought period of 1999-2002 was the best


demonstration for the Indus system in the form
of reduced waterlogging, without any reduction
in crop yields.

Post-monsoon waterlogged
(DTW: 0-150cm) areas in Punjab and
Lower Indus
At present, the water management/supply is
still based on per/post-independence historic
allocations, without any logic to justify
over/under allocation amongst different areas,
as is evidenced in Figure 2 for Sindh Province.
It has been projected that urban water
requirement for 25 major cities of Pakistan
would be 6.34 and 8.67 BCM, respectively for
year 2030 and 2050, against the current supply
of about 4.0 BCM. Therefore, the current
situation of increasing water demands, calls
for integration of water demand and supply
across and within all the water use sectors, in
addition to construction of large dams by the
Federal Government. Also, the provinces would
have to take awesome steps in this regard,
otherwise extra ordinary waterlogging,
groundwater depletion and quality deterioration
is expected to continue and even increase in
many areas.

The Study and data analysis was conducted on the data collected for the period 1981 - 2012

Groundwater in some of the areas of Pakistan


is under increasing threat from waterlogging,
and in others with over-exploitation, pollution
and lack of any management to match water
demands and supplies with the natural
resource base. The irrigation system design
and its management, which is more than a
century old, is totally oriented towards canal
water management only, leaving groundwater
development at the sole discretion of
individuals, resulting in inequitable
groundwater availability. Of special concern is
the groundwater resource mining in some of
the areas (e.g. 2.33 BCM per year in Bari Doab),
causing an irreversible loss due to increasing
pumping costs and saline intrusion, especially
salt water up-coning in areas with underlying
saline groundwater.
In this study, analysis of irrigation system issues,
irrigation water demand and supply for various
irrigation units, corresponding rainfall and other
recharge patterns in Punjab province, and
irrigation supplies, waterlogging and salinity
issues in Lower Indus were studied. It is
concluded that water re-allocation regional
(provincial) and canal command scale will be
pre-requisite before initiating any groundwater

management activity. After re-allocation of canal


water, in relative proportion to the demand
amongst various irrigation units, and further
equitable distribution at farm level will pave the
way for any best fit of restrictions (if needed) on
groundwater pumping in groundwater stressed
areas. This will not only eliminate groundwater
mining in overstressed areas, but will also help
minimize waterlogging, especially in areas with
higher rainfall and/or canal supplies.
In addition, the capacity of groundwater
institutions need to be developed to perform
key functions of planning, research and
providing information/technical support at
regional and local level. For the future times,
when there would be even less water availability
per capita than is now, the country needs to
frame a national water law for regulation of
surface and groundwater at various levels.
Following are the specific conclusions for
Punjab and Lower Indus Plain:

Canal water depth (mm) over the CCA

Figure 2: Comparison of Canal Water Supplies amongst the Irrigation Systems in Sindh.

Fresh assessment of crop water


requirement, cropping patterns and
intensities, and existing allocations is
strongly recommended.
Re-allocating canal water for equity in
relative irrigation demand rather than
supply at IBIS, provincial and canal
command levels is crucial.
Before moving to groundwater
management, time allocation needs to be
successively increased towards tail reach
of the watercourses.
Controlling cropping pattern and intensities
is the best option for groundwater
governance in depleted areas.
There is not much vulnerability to lateral
saline intrusion, in contrary, consumption
of upper thin freshwater layer by pumping
is causing gradual deterioration of
groundwater quality.
Sukh-Beas channel be rehabilitated for
groundwater recharge in central and lower
parts of Bari Doab during flood season.
Loss in on-line storage has major
contribution to groundwater depletion
therefore, construction of mega reservoirs
should be the first priority.

Sindh: average slope of 12.5 cm / Km (eight


inches/mile); Punjab: about 27 cm/ Km.
With this natural slope, surface drainage
system can only cater for removal of any
standing water on adjoining fields only.
This means LBOD and RBOD can only
partially cater for any storm drainage, not
designed for lowering groundwater level
Maintaining groundwater levels 8 - 10 ft.
below NSL would be required to
accommodate rainfall seepage and thereby
avoid Long duration rainfall flooding in
Sindh
Assessment of optimum groundwater
development potential for different areas
in Lower Indus is required
In fresh groundwater areas, reduce canal
supplies to such a level that the canal water
and groundwater pumping are able to meet
crop demands together, and DTW is
maintained at about 8-10 ft.

Saline areas need higher canal supplies,


with GW level below 10 ft. Thus a properly
designed and maintained drainage system
either tubewell drainage or tile drainage
system.
l Skimming wells for saline areas with thin
fresh layer would be the most optimal
solution

(ii) Water Management / GIS


Study: ENGINEERING ECONOMICS AND
HYDROLOGY OF CANAL LINING
Pakistan possesses the worlds largest
contiguous irrigation system commonly called
as Indus Basin Irrigation system (IBIS). It
commands an area of about 14.3 million
hectares (35 million acres) and encompasses
Indus River and its major tributaries. The Indus
River has a total length of 2900 kilometer (Km)
and the drainage-area is about 966,000 Sq.
km. The IBIS brings about 142 MAF (Million
Acre Feet) of water annually. Out of that104
MAF is diverted for irrigation (73% of the inflow),
35 MAF flows to the sea and 3 MAF are the
transmission losses in rivers.
The Indus Basin Irrigation System (IBIS)
comprises 12676 Km of main (primary) canals,
38884 Km of secondary (distributary / minors)
canals and 122268 watercourses. Out of 51845
Km of canals & secondary canals only 10
percent are lined and 90 percent are still
unlined. Colossal water losses take place from
unlined irrigation channels in IBIS. It has been
estimated that out of total 104 MAF, transit
losses in the alluvial canals and distributaries
are 21 MAF whereas 16 MAF water is lost
through watercourses and farm ditches.
Seepage from canals is one of the sources of
accretion groundwater table. These seepage
losses constitute a substantial percentage of
total water utilization and lead to waterlogging
and salinity of adjacent areas causing gross
environmental degradation. Lining has been
considered an effective measure for mitigating
waterlogging and salinity problem besides
conservation of surface water. Most commonly
adopted linings in Pakistan during the past 60
years are of four types; (i) pre-cast concrete

The seepage investigations of selected


distributaries/minors for this study were carried
out through inflow-outflow methods. Average
seepage losses were within the range of 0.26
to 0.35 m/d for unlined channels and from 0.09
to 0.24 m/d for lined channels. The result shows
that there is a low seepage rate in concrete
lining and a higher reducing loss rate (52-58%)
as compared to unlined channels. On the other
hand, brick canal lining showed comparatively
less degree of seepage reduction.
The pre-lining and post-lining investigations
gave relatively higher seepage rate as
compared to the research findings in other
areas of Pakistan. The variation in estimation
of seepage rates by the same inflow-outflow
method was verified through a number of other
investigations carried out by various agencies.
These variations in estimation could be
attributed to some systematic or random errors
in discharge measurements. This leads for
considering reasonable transaction between
huge investments on canal lining and the
expected water savings. Thus, this invites
attention to selective lining of those canals
which have high seepage rates.
Field observations suggest that water deliveries
at the head of distributaries are hardly ever in
accordance with the original design criteria.

A spread sheet model was developed to


overview the inter-related variables and used
for data cleaning, consistency check and
sensitivity analysis in accordance with the
economic viability. The model can be applied
for estimating the economic analysis for similar
types of lining projects.
The IWASRI, MREP, LIM and IWASRI-MREP
canal lining selected sites have shown an
estimated water savings of 1305, 2309, 611 and
1539 AF respectively by taking into account 300
canal operational days / year. The savings of
irrigation water by lining means that an
additional amount of irrigation water has been
made available at root-zone in the tertiary
irrigation level.
The economic analysis shows that the
justification for canal lining program is not
crystal clear even when applying multiple options
of discounted rate and expected life. The
indicators of economic viability, i.e. NPV and
IRR of lined channels have been found to be
quite low. The NPV result shows that the
economic profitability is not very attractive and
justified even if benefits are increased by 10
percent. In the sensitivity analysis the economic
profitability of selected sites could be fairly
advantageous if benefits increased by 20 percent.
Comparison of canal lining to that of tubewell
shows a pay back period between four to six
years. However, the results illustrate that the
storage reservoir as an alternate of canal lining
is the most economical option. Thus, huge
investment could be saved in capital cost, in
addition to operations and management cost.
The study highlights that canal lining of selected
sites are cost-effective only when the useful
life of the improved canal lining exceeds eight
years or more. The type of lining selected
should not only be economical in initial costs,
but also in operational and maintenance in the

WATER WING

Annual canal water supplies are 40 percent


short of crop water requirements. Therefore,
canal water is insufficient to meet water
requirements for crops; hence it is
supplemented by groundwater. The alluvial
plains of Pakistan are blessed with extensive
unconfined aquifer, with a potential of over 55
MAF, which is being exploited to an extent of
49 MAF by over one million private and public
tubewells. More than 2.5 million farmers are
using groundwater but unfortunately they have
a meager understand about any adverse affect.
The adverse affect likely to be appeared
because of unsystematic and erratic nature of
groundwater exploitation.

Study: Reuse of Saline Water for Agriculture


in LBOD and RBOD Area

Introduction
Use of Saline drainage water effluent for
agriculture and forestry was studied in Left
Bank Outfall Drain (LBOD) and Right Bank
Outfall Drain Project (RBOD) areas of Sindh
Province during the year 2009-13 (Four Years)
and further extended for the period of two years
i.e. 2013-14 to 2014-15. The Research
Component comprises eight sub studies, which
were carried out in the vicinity of RBOD and
LBOD in collaboration with LIM Project,
WAPDA, Hyderabad. Growing of fruit trees, low
and high delta crops and application of
amendments in combination with canal and
saline drain water were evaluated in LBOD
area to sustain the use of saline water for
Agriculture. Growing of salt tolerant grasses,
trees and crops were also evaluated with canal
and saline effluent application in RBOD area.
Conjunction of canal and saline effluent,
application of amendments as well as alternate
use of both the water sources are utilized to
improve crop production. The findings of eight
sub research studies will help a lot in depicting
salt tolerance behaviour of crops, trees and
grasses under varying soil and water conditions.
Inspite of the extensive irrigation system in the
country, the existing canal supplies are
insufficient to cope with the present crop water
requirements. These conditions compel the
farmers to use groundwater as an alternative
to meet the irrigation requirement of the crops.
The exploitation of groundwater also involves
funds to exploit ground water reserves.
Moreover, constant running expenditure is
involved to withdraw the ground water reserves.
As regards water quality, in Pakistan about
50% of the groundwater reserves are fit for
irrigation whereas the remaining 50% need
careful application. In Sindh Province, about
28% area has usable groundwater. The third
alternative lies in the utilization of drainage
effluent for growing salt tolerant crops, grasses
and trees. It will not involve much cost
compared to other irrigation water sources

The selected fields were properly leveled,


divided according to treatments and replicated
three times. For crops, the soil samples were
taken before sowing and at harvesting of each
crop up to the depth of 120 cm to monitor
changes in soil salinity/sodicity. Since Kharif
and Rabi crop were rotated in the same field,
therefore, soil samples collected at harvesting
of cotton/rice were considered as samples at
sowing of wheat. Similarly, samples taken
wheat harvesting were envisaged as salinity
status before cotton/rice crop. The studies
were so organized that it had a research cum
demonstration value. The effect of saline water
irrigation, salt tolerant crop cultivars and
planning time and spacing of tree species was
studied on soil properties, water table
underground water quality and crops yield in
various experiments.
Crops were grown during their normal planting
season and were irrigated with canal/drainage
water as per treatments to evaluate the effect
of saline water on soil and crop yield. The study
had eight sub-components with relevance to
areas of research, i.e. crops and forestry. The
treatments tested in one of the crop
experiments were: Control, Irrigation with
drainage water and Alternate irrigation with
canal and drainage water combined within no
amendment, Gypsum @ 25% on crop water
requirement and Farm Yard Manure @ 5 tones
per hectare. In the other crop experiment the

soil salinity. The soil salinity increased upto


2.8% in case of Rice-Wheat crop rotation 15.4%
in case of Sunflower-Rice crop rotation.
However, the use of amendments especially
the press mud, followed by Farm Yard Manure
showed a prominent effect in reducing the
deleterious effect of brackish drainage effluent.
As the saline drainage effluent was having no
problem of Na+ ionic contents, therefore no
effect of increasing sodicity in soil was
observed. However, the use of different
amendments like press mud and Farm Yard
Manure decreased the already existing sodicity
up to the lower limits. The maximum decreased
in soil SAR was observed as 69.8% under the
treatment I1A3 (Canal Water + Press mud @ 10
ton ha1) under Rice-Wheat crop rotation.
Application of drainage water exclusively
without opting for amendments reduced wheat
yield by 4.2%. However, application of FYM and
press mud significantly reduced the ill effects
of brackish drainage water and increased wheat
yield, especially in case of blended water
irrigation.
Sub-study: Use of Saline Water for Growing
of Low and High Delta Crops at Sarani Drain
The water quality of Sarani drain was marginal
having no problem of sodicity and RSC. The
drainage water applied was having an average
ECw, SAR and RSC of 1498 (ppm), 5.0 (mmol
L1)1/2 and 0 (meq L1) respectively.

Due to application of drainage water there was


a minor increase of about 9.6% and 9.5 in soil
sodicity in both the cases i.e. low as well as
high delta crops.

Use of drainage water decreased the penetration


of water in the soil profile under all the crop
rotations of low delta as well as high delta crops.
The decrease in infiltration rate due to the
application of drainage water was 6.7% in case
of low delta crops and 11.31% - in case of high
delta crops.
In case of high delta crops maximum yield of
Paddy crop i.e. 3474 Kg ha1 was obtained with

canal water irrigations while with the


application of drainage water yield of about
2398 Kg ha1 was obtained which is 30.9% less
than the normal canal water irrigations. In
case Rabi fodder (Berseem), maximum average
fodder yield of 12929 Kg ha1 (Three cuttings)
was obtained, where all irrigations were applied
with canal water where as 13.2% less yield was
obtained with the exclusive use of drainage
water application as compared to canal water
irrigation.
Sub-study: Use of Saline Water for Growing
of Fruit Trees at Sanghar Main Drain
Average water quality data of Sanghar drainage
effluent indicate that drainage effluent have
no problem of sodicity and RSC and is saline
of marginal quality. The drainage water applied
was having an average TDS (ppm), SAR and
RSC of 1628 (ppm), 6.74 (mmol L1)1/2 and 0
(meq L1) respectively.
Soil Salinity and sodicity increase with exclusive
use of drainage water alone are in conjunction

The Electrical Conductivity (ECe) of the soil
decreased with the use of canal water in all
depths like (0-30), (30-60) and (60-90) cm with
the growing of fruit trees i.e. Guava, Chikoo,
Date palm and Ber which ranged from 4.1 to
7.9% in (0-30 cm ), 1.7 to 3.5%, (30-60 cm ) and
2.0 to 6.1% at (60-90 cm) depth of the soil.
Electrical Conductivity of the soil also decreased
with the use of saline water which ranged 1.4
to 4.2% at (0-30 cm) depth by growing of fruit
trees, but increased in (30-60 cm) and (60-90
cm) depth of the soil which ranged from 1.7
to 4.8% and 3.9 to 8.2% by growing of Guava,
Chiku, Date palm and Ber. Overall performance
of Chiku with application of Saline Water
remained better as compare to other trees.
Sub Study: Role of Salt Tolerant Grasses
by using of Drainage Water at Naghan Dhoro
Drain
The Electrical Conductivity (ECe) of the soil by
using canal water decreased in all the soil
depths (0-90 cm) with the growing of Kallar
grass (Diplachne fusca), Napier grass (Chloria
gayana) and Elephant grass (Pennusetum
purpureum).The percent decreased in ranged
from 6.3 to 10.0%, 1.5 to 5.9%, and 5.0 to 11.9%

The ECe of Soil decreased in upper layer of


soil (0.30 cm) in Kallar grass and Napier grass.
It decreased in (0-30) and (30-60 cm) soil depth
with Elephant grass, which were irrigated with
saline water. The soil increased at (60-90 cm)
depth of Kallar grass, Napier grass and
Elephant grass. The maximum increased which
was ranged from 3.5 to 9.3% in Kallar grass,
1.7 to 4.8% in Napier Grass and 3.8 to 7.7% in

MONA RECLAMATION EXPERIMENTAL


PROJECT (MREP), BHALWAL
Background
Irrigation system of Pakistan constructed over
the last more than one hundred years now
serves a culturable command area of about
13.8 million hectares. Since timely provision
for adequate drainage was not made, severe
waterlogging and salinity problems occurred
over vast irrigated tracts of land. To deal with
this problem an active programme of Salinity
Control and Reclamation Projects (SCARPs)
was launched by Water and Power
Development Authority (WAPDA) in 1959. The
program also involved installation of tubewells
to control watertable and to augment irrigation
water supplies in areas where pumped water
quality was fit for irrigation.
Soon after launching of the SCARP programme,
it was realized that mere provision of vertical
drainage through tubewells did not bring the
desired improvements because of many new
problems like tubewell incrustation and
corrosion, rapid decrease in tubewell discharge,
change in quality of pumped water and increase
in watercourse conveyance losses. In order
to identify SCARP associated problems and to
develop their solutions through research, Mona
Reclamation Experimental Project (MREP) was
established in 1965 over a part of SCARP-II. In
order to extend the scope of research, Shahpur

completion of construction work in 1979.

Study: ENGINEERING ECONOMICS AND


HYDROLOGY OF CANAL LINING

The project is bounded on the North by the


river Jhelum and on the East by the Lower
Jhelum Canal. The southern boundary is
formed by the Northern Branch of the Lower
Jhelum Canal and the Sargodha-Gujrat Road.
The Pakistan Motorway passes through the
center of the Project area. The Project office
building is about 15 Km from the Salam
Interchange and about 4 Km from Bhalwal on
Bhalwal-Bhera Road. The MREP activities are
not restricted to the above mentioned
boundaries. It also conducts its research
activities as and where required in the country.

BACKGROUND
Pakistans economy relies upon its irrigated
agriculture to feed the rapidly growing
population; supply raw material to the agrobased industry and earn foreign exchange for
its imports. The irrigated agriculture give 90%
of the total agriculture production, e.g. 20.9%
of GDP, 43.4 % of employment and 70% of export
revenues. The livelihood of more than 70%
population of Pakistan is directly or indirectly
supported through this sector. The Indus Basin
Irrigation System comprises of three major
reservoirs, 16 barrages, 2 headworks, 2 siphons
across major rivers, 14 inter river link canals,
55 major canal systems (27 in Punjab, 15 in
Sindh, 11 in KPK and 2 in Balochistan). The
canal system delivers irrigation supplies through
138517 watercourses (OFWM, 2003). The
aggregate length of the canals is about 56,073
Km. In addition, the watercourses farm channels
and field ditches cover another 1.6 million Km.
The irrigated area in Pakistan is about 16 million
hectare (Mha), which mostly falls in the Indus
Basin. The irrigation system of the country draws
an average of 104 MAF of surface water each
year for irrigation.

SCARP tubewells have been closed as a policy


decision under the SCARP Transition
Programme since April 2001. Major research
efforts are now directed towards efficient use
of scarce water resources, enhancing the
agricultural productivity through the better
management of soil and water and
dissemination of improved technologies to the
end users. Research programme of MREP is
sponsored through the PC-II (2009-2015) of
Govt. of Pakistan.

Broad areas of research include the following


in general:
l Development of methods and procedures
to achieve effective use of land and water,
the reclamation of salt-affected land and
agricultural development
l Hydrological studies to determine the effect
of water management and drainage
l Monitoring and management of water

l Determining optimum cropping inputoutput relationship
l Salt and water balance, and
l Dissemination of knowledge to concerned
quarters including farmers
Research studies and related activities
performed during the year 2014-15 under new
PC-II are summarized below:

Arid and semi-arid climatic conditions


necessitate provision of artificial irrigation to
abridge the vast gap between high rate of
evaportranspiration and extremely low rate of
precipitation. Conservation of available water
resources is very crucial for sustainable
agriculture. Before the introduction of the weir
controlled irrigation system, the watertable
was very deep. Weir controlled irrigation started
in this region in 1859, with the completion of
the Upper Bari Doab Canal (UBDC) from
Madhopur Headworks on the river Ravi (now
in India). In the beginning drainage was not
provided. Due to lack of drainage facilities and
improper irrigation practices watertable started
rising resulting in waterlogging and salinity
problem in many areas of the Indus Plain. The
main cause of the problem is attributed towards
seepage from main canal and their distribution
system as well as deep percolation from fields

due to inefficient irrigation methods in


practices. Lining is considered as an
engineering solution for control of seepage
losses from earthen irrigation channels.

Objectives
To investigate solutions through research
and demonstration for usage of saline
groundwater for soil reclamation
l To determine optimum crop input-output
relationship
l To disseminate research findings to the
end users for application
l To evaluate economic feasibility of tested

Background
The twin menace of waterlogging and salinity
was addressed by induction of Salinity Control
and Reclamation Projects (SCARPs) during early
1960s. The need for monitoring was realized
and WASID was entrusted this job which was
mainly confined to watertable behavior and
tubewell performance with post project
monitoring purposes in 1966. Central Monitoring
Organization (CMO) and replaced WASID and
was renamed as SMO. The monitoring activities
have the purview of bi-annual depth to
watertable (Pre & Post monsoon) observation,
shallow ground water quality and soil salinity
monitoring. SMO lays out standards/procedures
for data collection, test checks special field
tests, data processing and release of technical

Water Quality Monitoring


The monitoring/evaluation of water quality status
in the Indus Basin is a regular activity but due
to non-availability of funds/manpower, the
regular monitoring activities pertaining to private
tubewells, drains, rivers, lakes and ponds and
tile drains could not be carried out. In addition,
8700 water quality samples were collected /
tested at site to evaluation the (pre and post
monsoon 2014-15) and water quality status.

Brief History
Muzaffargarh and T.P. Link Canals are offtaking from Taunsa Barrage. After two year
construction of Taunsa Barrage (1958) intensive
seepage from the sandy banks of Muzaffargarh
& T.P.Link Canal took place and 35% area
presented a picture of total devastation. Lands
turned unproductive and farms income reduced
to large extent.

Soil Salinity Monitoring


No regular soil salinity monitoring was carried
out during F.Y. 2014-15 due to non-release of
funds.

Intensive seepage from Muzaffargarh &


T.P.Link Canals resulted negative impact on
human life and inhabitants started to migrate
to other area in search of lively hood. Lush
green field badly damaged and agriculture
production reduced to a significant level.

Achievements
SMO on regular basis provides Laboratory
facilities to other WAPDA formations and
consultants on payment basis. A total 500 water
samples were received/analysed and the data

of buildings, roads etc. The ill effects are visible
on road network where the pavements have
settled. Ample national resources are being
wasted on the maintenance of infrastructure,
built in the affected area.

Other Activities
(i) Presentation regarding Revenue Budget
Projects was submitted to JS(W), MOWP.
A meeting in this regard was attended in
MOWP to evaluate the progress achieved.

Inhabitants of the area started agitation against


this core issue and approached public
representative of the area for redressal of the
same. Accordingly the concept of this project
emerged.

(ii) Presentation regarding SMO activities 201419 was prepared and submitted to worthy
Chairman WAPDA and General Manager
(Central) Water,WADPA.

The project area is inter connected with network


of road & railways. There are numbers of Sugar
& Textile Mills existed besides Cotton & Ginning
Factories. Most of the people of the area
however prefer farming being small land
owners. But due to seepage, their land became
water logged & yield has reduced. Implication
of proposed remedial measures will ultimately
be beneficial to the inhabitants of the area,
when Muzaffargarh & T.P. Link Canals are
lined, small land owners / farmers will be able
to cultivate their land & subsequently increase
their per-capita income.

(iii) The PC-II of SMO activities to be carried


out during financial year 2014-15 has been
prepared and submitted to Member (Water).

Description

INSTALLATION OF PILOT TREATMENT


PLANT ALONG RIGHT BANK OUTFALL
DRAIN (RBOD) SYSTEM
INSTALLATION OF PILOT TREATMENT
PLANT ALONG RBOD SYSTEM
Project Background
Pakistan is an agrarian economy and irrigated
agriculture supports more then 90% of the
total agriculture production of the country.
However, Pakistan is facing number of
challenges today despite of having the largest
contiguous irrigation system in the world.

WATER WING

Development of additional water storages in


Pakistan faces immense challenges and the
ever expanding water needs for the growing
economy and the population for meeting its
food requirements, adds complexity to it.

WAPDA Annual Report 2014 - 15

146

As never before, there is now a strong and


growing need to manage this precious resource
more carefully and efficiently to ensure water
for all on a sustainable basis. The Drainage
Effluent being generated from the Right Bank
commands (1.3 million hectares) of Guddu and
Sukkur barrages in Balochistan and Sindh
Provinces having average annual flows of about
750,000 AF was planned to be disposed off
into the sea through Right Bank Outfall Drain
(RBOD) system being constructed under RBODI, II and III Projects. Manchar and Hamal Lakes
are the two ecologically sensitive and
economically important lakes in the RBMP
area. Currently the RBOD Effluent falling into
Manchar Lake is the main source of water
supply of the Lake. Previously before the
construction of RBOD system, MNVD (Now
RBOD) carried fresh water to the lake. After
the construction of RBOD system, the drainage
effluent became more and more saline by time,
and thus impacting the lake negatively, both
by habitat and biological life (plants, animals,
fish) living in it. This required integration of
environmental concerns into the processes
used to determine how RBOD sources of water
should be conserved and used in a new
challenge to Sindh water sector.

In recognition of this need, WAPDA carried out


feasibilities studies through Consultants in
Year 2009 & 2010 for Treatment and re-use of
RBOD effluent for various uses. Subsequently,
the PC-I for installation of Pilot Treatment
Plant along Right Bank Outfall Drain (RBOD)
System prepared by WAPDA was approved by
ECNEC on May 26, 2011 at the cost of
Rs.3353.373 million with construction period
of 02 years.

The Project
The Pilot Treatment Plant has been designed
for capacity of 40 cusecs (1.13 m3/sec) and will
be installed on left side of MNVD (RBOD) at RD
93. The Plant will treat the effluent of Right
Bank Outfall Drain (RBOD) for agricultural use
of about 10,984 acres (4557 hacters.) of lands
located around villages in Johi Tehsil of district
Dadu. The plant will be installed on left side of
RBOD at RD 93 of MNVD. The plant will provide
28,958 A.F treated effluent per year in addition
to two million gallon per day drinking water
for supply to nearby villages. The estimated
annual benefits of the Project on account of
agriculture production, sale of salts & sale of
potable water is Rs.643.680 million and the
estimated annual O&M Cost of the Project on
account of chemical usage, power
consumption, maintenance & manpower is
Rs.237.000 million.

Government of Balochistan requested
Ministry of Water & Power to allocate funds
for Winder Dam Project.

Background
The need for storing the flood water of Gomal
River had been observed as early as 1880 at
the time of first settlement of D.I. Khan by the
British Administration. After independence
these studies continued and in 1957 a scheme
known as Gulbagh Dam Project was
approved by the Government and preliminary
works were undertaken by the Provincial
Irrigation Department which continued up to
October, 1959.
On taking over the charge by WAPDA in 1959,
the project was re-examined and a new
proposal was prepared by changing the site to
Khajuri Kach, 30 Mile downstream, thereby
tapping the biggest tributaries Zhob River and
Wana Toi. Further studies were conducted by
WAPDA during the period 1960-90 through
firstly by M/s Energoprojekt (Yugoslavia) in
1963, then by M/s Coyne et Bellier, (France)
during 1983-90. PC-I prepared by WAPDA in
1993 included irrigation works and a tunnel
intake in view of Stage II Hydropower.
However by another updated feasibility study
conducted within the framework of a contract
signed between the Government of Khyber
Pakhtunkhwa and M/s Coyne et Bellier for the
additional studies. Consultants submitted
feasibility report in 1995. PC-I, prepared on the
basis of this report, was approved by ECNEC
on August 31, 2001.

Gomal Zam Dam Project


Gomal Zam Dam is located at Khajuri Kach
on Gomal River in South Waziristan Agency,
which is situated West of the districts of Tank
and D.I.Khan of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
Project site is accessible from Indus Highway
via D.I. Khan Tank Road. From Tank, the dam
site is about 60 Km to the West and connected
through a metalled road.

Benefits likely to accrue from construction of


the dam at Gomal River are both tangible and
intangible. Tangible benefits include increased
agricultural production under perennial
irrigation and hydropower generation while
intangible benefits include increase in
employment opportunities, increased economic
activity in agriculture as well as trade &
commerce, rise in income levels resulting in
better standard of living etc.

Irrigation Benefits
At present Rod Kohi Irrigation is being practiced
in the Irrigation command area of the Project.

The Project would provide a dependable source


of water for irrigation. Overall annual cropping
intensity will increase from the present 15.8%
to 86.5%.

Hydropower Benefits

Non-Agricultural Benefits

Socio-Environmental Implications

Other benefits include: employment


opportunities during construction and in the
industry and commerce: improved standards
of living, security to farmers as a result of
reliable water supply both for irrigation and
domestic use, balanced diet through production
of fruits, vegetables and other proteins foods,
installation of agro-industries due to extension
of electricity, improvement in regional
environment due to increased income of people,
and initiation of commercial fishing.

Cheaper power as compared to thermal power


would be provided. A hydropower station at
dam site would generate 17.4 MW.

Resettlement
No resettlement problem is involved in
reservoir area. A nominal effect to the builtup property/houses in ROW of main canal and
distributaries is involved.

Socio-Economic Impact
The most important effect will be saving of
flood losses in form of land, houses, livestock,
infrastructure, roads, communication and
human lives as well.

Project Status
Contract No.GZD-01
This Contract was awarded to M/s CWHECHPE JV of P.R. China in June, 2002. After
commencement on July 15, 2002 the work
continued till October 09, 2004, the day on
which two Chinese engineers and a local police

guard were kidnapped by terrorists, after which


they abandoned the work at site forthwith.
Efforts were made through meetings and
correspondence to persuade them to resume
the work. However, on their failure to resume
the work, their Contract was terminated by
WAPDA effective April 14, 2006. There was no
progress of work during the year 2005-06 and
2006-07. M/s CWHEC-HPE JV had executed
following works before termination of their
Contract.
l

The Contractor had substantially completed


mobilization and had established main
camp at dam site and other camps at
Hathala and Barrage sites for works in the
irrigation command area.
Design documents relating to major
components of works had been submitted
by the contractor and reviewed by the
management consultants. These documents
were being finalized by the contractor.
Concrete lined diversion tunnel had been
completed. Work on both abutments
excavation was underway. Total
achievement on dam and spillway
component was about 8.2%.
In the command area work on concrete
lined main canal was in progress. Total
achievedment on this compnent was about
4.6%.
Foundations for transmission line were
under construction and fabrication &
erection of towers was in progress. Total
achievement on hydropower component
was about 9.5%.

Contract No.GZD-02
For re-start of works, in the meeting of ECC
of the Cabinet held on April 14, 2006 it was
decided to award the contract to FWO on
negotiated rates for completion of the Project
on EPC/turnkey basis. WAPDA accordingly
asked FWO to submit their proposal. After
reviewing proposal submitted by the FWO in
August, 2006, WAPDA awarded the Contract
to FWO on March 09, 2007 to complete the
works within 3 years & 4 months with effect
from the commencement date notified as June
11, 2007.

Unfortunately the project suffered delay mainly


due to paucity of funds and also on account of
other cogent reasons such as precarious Law
& Order situation in the project area and the
extraordinary wet season of monsoon July /
August 2010 also affected the progress
adversely. However, hectic efforts were made
for funds and after negotiation of about 06
months, finally USAID agreed to grant of US$
45 million for Dam & Hydropower Component.
In this context agreement was signed in January
2011 and till July 2014, 45.0 US$ million have
been released by USAID in installments as per
payment schedule. Dam and Hydropower
Component have since been completed while
the TOC is under process.
Similar efforts had been made for USAID
funding for completion of Irrigation and Flood
Protection Component. After lengthy
negotiations, USAID agreed to grant US $ 40
million for completion of this component as
well. In this context, the previous agreement
which was signed in January, 2011 had been
revised for amount of US $ 85 and till June
2015, US $39.0 million have been released by
USAID for Irrigation and Flood Protection
Component in instalments as per payment
schedule. Physical progress of Irrigation
Component upto June, 2015 is 90.32 %. New
date of completion of Irrigation & Flood
Protection Component as well as the Project
is December, 2015 (expected).
Moreover, USAID has also been agreed to
Finance the construction of Waran Canal
System and Minors. In this regard an Activity
Agreement for US $ 12 million has been
approved by USAID Pakistan on 30 July, 2012

and further WAPDA has requested for


enhancement of this grant up to US $ 28.5
million because of high bid price. During the
visit from June 09, 2015 to June 12, 2015 of
USAID Team to check the physical progress of
construction work at site, they agreed
principally to Finance US $ 20.16 million for
construction of Waran Canal System and
Minors. WAPDA has submitted disbursement
payment schedule amounting US $ 20.16
million as per PIL requirement.

Updated Physical Status of the Project

Pc-1 Cost
PC-I cost for the project was Rs.7035.128
million, and it was approved in September 02,
2002 by ECNEC. At first the project was
scheduled to be started earlier, but due to
many factors including arrangement of
Funds/Security reasons, the project couldnt
be started in time.Later on finally the work on
main project component was started in
February 2011, which is continued. As a result
due to Escalation in rates/prices of materials,
inclusion of work which were not finally
envisaged in PC-1(such as construction of O&M
staff colony) Revised PC-1 cost has been
worked out as Rs.28, 202.402 million, which
has been submitted to Ministry for Water &
Power on May 15, 2015 for approval.

In PC-1, provision for construction of O&M staff


colony for the project was not included, however
later on a permanent O&M staff colony was
constructed at Koghuzi (22 Km from Chitral
on main Chitral Booni Road, 08 Km from
project site) in year 2009-11, and it cost have
been included in revised PC-I which is under
process for approval. The construction work
was divided into 07 Lots, and it was awarded
to following five contractors:

Work started on these lots in March, 2009,
and it was substantially completed in
September, 2011.The colony couldnt be taken
over due to defects in construction and
involvement of FIA in this matter. At present
the persons involved in construction of the
colony are in FIA custody.

Lot- 2 - Construction Work of Main Weir,


Headrace Tunnel, Pressure Shaft, Surge
Chamber, Access Road Etc.
The construction work for Lot-2 was awarded
to M/s SAMBU-SARCO (JV) in December 2010
for Rs.7.521 billion and work was started at
site in February, 2011.Commencement date
was February 01, 2011 and contract Period for
this work was 48 months. Later on, an extension
of 204 days was granted to the Contractors due
to late mobilization of consultants/issuance of
construction drawings.
At present Main Weir with lateral Intake, Sand
Trap, and a part of Headrace Channel is almost
complete as far as concrete works are
concerned. Also excavation of all tunnels (with
a total length of 4.7 Km) is completed and work
on Access Road is in progress. At the moment,
important activities in progress are concrete
lining of Headrace Tunnel, installation of Steel
Liner in Pressure Tunnel /Pressure Shaft,
Mechanical Works, work on Access Road.
Overall Progress for lot-2 achieved so far is
71.74% with revised scheduled completion date
as August 23, 2015.However work is expected
to be completed in last quarter of 2016.

Lot-3.1 - (Construction of Power House,


Tailrace Channel, Civil Work of
Switchyard)
Contract for lot-3.1 was also awarded to M/s
SAMBU SARCO (JV) in December 2010 at a cost
of Rs.1.912 billion, with commencement date as
February 01, 2011 and construction period of 48
months.Work was scheduled to be completed

by February 14, 2015 but up till now only 38.91%


physical progress has been achieved, which
includes excavation up to foundation level of
power house building. Excavation for Tailrace
Channel is completed and its concrete works is
in progress. Stabilization of slope (Benching)
above power house is in progress. Also
Acquisition of Land for switchyard is nearly
complete by District Collector. Main reason for
slow progress of Lot-3.1 is the late award of
contract Lot-3.2. Beacuse the design of power
house is intimately related with detail
design/location of E&M components to be
installed inside the building (Lot-3.2), as a result
due to unavailability of input from Lot-3.2
contractor the consultant could not proceed and
thus construction drawings to Lot-3.1 contractor
could not be issued. Now finally as contract Lot3.2 has been awarded and consultant issues
resolved, it is hoped that very soon construction
drawings to M/S SAMBU SARCO (JV) will be
provided. Meanwhile the contractor has applied
for Extension of Time period 765 days on above
grounds and the evaluation of contractors EOT
request is in process.

Lot-3.2 - E&M Works of Power House


and Switchyard

Contract for the said work was awarded to M/s


Andritz HYDRO on February, 19 2014 with
contract duration of 28 months to be completed
by June 28, 2016. Due to the delay in advance
payment from the Donors for the 15% of F.O.B
value in US $ and Euro the contractor notified
stoppage of work w.e.f. May 17, 2014.
Meanwhile the Donor KfD was approached via
higher offices and EAD for early payment of 1st
15% Advance of F.O.B value as the contractor
notified stoppage of work.
The Contractor resumed the work after
receiving the 1st part of Advance payment 15%
F.O.B value on March,1st 2015. At present the
contractor has submitted the design submittals
for approval which are under process with the
Engineer.

Warsak Dam / Hydroelectric Power Station on


River Kabul is located in Khyber / Mohmand
Agencies, 30 Km from the city of Peshawar,
Khyber Pakhtunkwa. The project was financed
by the Canadian Government under Colombo
Plan. The First Phase completed in 1960-61
consisted of Dam, Irrigation tunnels, four
generating units, each of 40 MW (total 160 MW)
and 132 KV transmission lines. In the Second
Phase (1980-81), two more units of 41.48 MW
each were added, the total capacity thus raised
to 242.96 MW (say 243 MW). The Dam has
almost silted up and the Power Station is now
practically operating as run-of-river.
Phase-I Rehabilitation was carried out due to
two major reasons, firstly Structural
deformation due to Alkali Aggregate Reaction

(AAR) and secondly, severe erosion of the


hydraulic equipment due to abrasive nature of
silt carried in the Kabul River. Governments of
Pakistan and Canada jointly carried out the
Rehabilitation Project under CIDA Grant of CD
27 million during 1996~2006. As a result of the
rehabilitation works completed in this phase,
the Civil Structures became stable, besides,
the reduced capacity of Power Station increased
from 150 MW to about 220 MW.
The aging problems of E&M equipment
aggravated further with the passage of time,
resulting in consequently the generating
capacity reduced to 193 MW and reliability of
the station also reduced. Second (2nd)
Rehabilitation of Warsak Hydroelectric Power
was planned with the objective to overcome
the aging problems, regain the capacity loss
of 50 MW with reliable annual energy

generation of 1,144 GWh, upgrade and


modernize the old system and achieve another
life cycle of 30 to 40 years.

Present Status
Feasibility Study, Tender Documents and Detail
Design were completed by the consultants
RSWI (Canada)-DCE (Pakistan) JV.
PC-I of the Project is cleared by CDWP and
will be placed before ECNEC for approval in
the forthcoming meeting.
AFD/KfW/EIB (EDPs) are providing a loan of
Euro 130 million for the Project.
AFD has also proposed additional EU Grant of
Euro 4.5 million for Community Development.
Short listing for hiring of consultancy services
for engineering support and Construction
Supervision for implementation of the project
has been finalized and sent to AFD for NOL.

Capacity Enhancement of Chitral Hydel


Power Station from 1 to 5 MW

The power demand in Chitral area has now


being increased and there is a dire need to
upgrade the capacity of existing Hydel Power
Station at Chitral. In the initial construction
phase of Project, limited flows of Lutkho River
were diverted to Power Channel for generation
of 1 MW only. However, the river has abundant
flows which can be utilized for power generation
by constructing a small diversion weir,
remodeling of power channel & fore bay and
installation of new penstocks and additional
units. It is estimated that the power can be
enhanced up to 5 MW.
WAPDA had carried out preliminary studies.
Topographic Survey, Geological Mapping for
weir Intake / Power Channel / Power House
areas and drilling at weir / Power House area.
Tender Design Report has been completed by
Hydro Planning WAPDA in May, 2012.

POWER WING

The existing 1.0 MW Chitral Hydel Power Station


is located on the right bank of Lutkho River, 5

Km upstream of Chitral City. The Project was


commissioned in 1975 by diverting the flows
of Lutkho River through 3.72 Km long channel
and installing 2 units of 200 KW and 2 units of
300 KW each. The power generated from Chitral
Hydel Power Station is supplied to Chitral City
through 11 kV Transmission Line.

REFURBISHMENT AND UP-GRADATION


OF GENERATING UNITS OF MANGLA
POWER STATION
Mangla Dam / Power Station, located on River
Jhelum at about 120 Km from Islamabad, is a
multipurpose Project, constructed in 1967
primarily for Irrigation. The other by products
are Power Generation, Fish Culture, Tourism
and Navigation.

POWER WING

Mangla Power House was completed in four


stages. The initial phase comprising four units
of 100 MW each was completed in 1967-69.
The first extension of Unit No. 5&6 (2X100 MW)
was completed in 1974 while second extension
comprising Unit No. 7 & 8 (2X100 MW) was
completed in 1981. The project attained its
maximum capacity of 1000 MW with the final
extension of Unit No 9&10 (2X100 MW) in
1993-94.

WAPDA Annual Report 2014 - 15

178

Mangla reservoir had initial gross capacity of


5.88 MAF, which reduced to 4.674 MAF (Year
2005) and was likely to reduce further with the
passage of time due to sediment deposition.
Keeping in view the capacity loss due to
sedimentation and provision for raising in the
original design and construction, Raising of
Mangla Dam was started in 2004 and the
Project was completed in 2009. The Dam height
has been raised by 30 feet while maximum
conservation level increased from 1202 feet to
1242 feet corresponding to additional water
storage capacity of 2.88 MAF. There will be
Average Annual Incremental Energy of 1632
GWh due to availability of more water and rise
in net head of machines.
There are four age groups of Mangla machines
Units 1~4 (43 years), Units 5~6 (38 years), Units

7~8 (32 years) & Units 9~10 (18 years). Units1~6


with age of 30~40 years have outlived their
useful lives due to which more cost and time
are required for maintenance of old equipment
besides less operational reliability. Efficiency
of Turbines has reduced from their designed
values and the Hydraulic/Mechanical
Equipment have become unreliable due to
aging. Though, Dam life has enhanced after
completion of the Dam Raising Project but the
old generating units do not have life
compatibility with the Dam
Accordingly, WAPDA has planned to carry out
up-gradation & refurbishment of the old
generating units and allied equipment to ensure
their optimized operation in the post Raised
Mangla Dam scenario. As a first step, feasibility
study was carried out by WAPDA through the
Consultants MWH-NESPAK JV (MRP JV) and
Final Feasibility Report was submitted in
December, 2011. Based on the results of
extensive studies, MRP JV recommended upgradation from 1000 to 1310 MW at 0.8 Power
Factor as it satisfies all the objectives of Scope
of Work. Refurbishment Works have been divided
into three (03) Phases and eleven (11) Packages.

Present Status
PC-I amounting to Rs.52,224.31 million
(US$.483.56 million) approved by ECNEC on
December 31, 2013.
Project Implementation Letter (PIL) with USAID
for the grant of US$.72 million (out of total
US$.150 million) was signed on March 06, 2014.
The whole project of Mangla Refurbishment
has been divided into 11 Packages.

REHABILITATION, UP GRADATION &


EXTENSION OF RENALA HYDROPOWER
PROJECT
Renala Hydropower Station, located at RD
(160+686) near Renala Town on Lower Bari
Doab Canal (LBDC), was built in 1925 with
installed capacity of 1.1 MW. The main objective
of this power station was to lift water for
irrigating land. The power station is
continuously in operation since then due to
which the efficiency of the electrical and
mechanical equipment has decreased
significantly.

Renala Hydropower Project is environmental


friendly and has minimal environmental
impacts. The Project has been proposed to be
completed over an approximate three (03) years
of schedule.

Present Status
Feasibility study completed by WAPDA Hydroplanning Department in 2013.
Concept Clearance Paper for the Project
approved by Planning Commission / CDWP on
March 04, 2015.
PC-I for the Project has been submitted to the
Ministry of Water & Power and is under
scrutiny.

POWER WING

WAPDA has planned to rehabilitate Renala


Hydel Power Station for which feasibility study,
carried out by GM Hydro Planning office, was
completed in September, 2013, wherein different
options for up-gradation of Renala were
considered, and finally it was recommended to

retain the existing power house of 1.1 MW as a


historical monument and construct another
4.4 MW (2x2.2 MW) power house on the right
side of existing power house as an extension
Project. Estimated cost for the Project is
US$18.02 million (Equivalent Rs.1910.78 million).

MANAGEMENT REPORT FY 2014 - 15


WAPDA Power Wing (Hydroelectric) is operating
under generation license granted by the Power
Regulator NEPRA, for operation, maintenance
and development of hydel power resources in
Pakistan.

Operational Performance
WAPDA-Hydroelectric owns and operates 19
hydel power stations with aggregated installed
generation capacity of 6,902 MW. Major hydel
power stations include Tarbela (3478 MW),
Ghazi Barotha (1,450 MW), Mangla (1,000 MW)
Warsak (243 MW).
The utilization of capacity for Hydel Generation
is largely dependent on net head of respective
power station and quantum of water indents
allowed by IRSA. The Net Electrical Output
(NEO) for the year stood at 31,780 GWh as
compared to last year NEO of 31,306 GWh with
increase in Generation 474 GWh, during FY
2014-15. This excess generation was mainly
contributed by Mangla and Duber Khwar.

Profitability Position
Power sales revenue during FY 2014-15 stood
at Rs. 68,111 million (2014: Rs. 52,091 million),
due to upward revision of power sales tariff
while cost of electricity stood at Rs. 22,352
million (2014: 20,628 million) bringing the net
revenue surplus of Rs. 33,736 million (2014:
21,451 million). The value of property, plant
and equipments increased to the level of Rs.
1,067,673 million (2014: Rs. 291,948 million).
This increase is mainly due to revaluation of
Land, Building, Civil Works and Dam &
Reservoirs.
The average return on investment at net
carrying cost of property, plant and equipment
worked out as 16% for the year as compared
to 10.8% of last year.

SECURITY DIRECTORATE
General
Security in an ongoing process and its
requirements are directly proportional to its
magnitude. WAPDA Security is an ever
increasing out fit and its multidirectional duties
compels it to guard avenues which occur as
per new developments. In order to with stand
such compulsions not only flexible and sharp
approach is needed but implementation
becomes round the year responsibility by
carrying out rehearsals and exercises.
To act upon such a mandate security
Directorate WAPDA focused its attention on
the following more pronounced avenues, which
are summarized as:

Training
To find time and muster manpower in a shift
system of duties and over stretched security
requirements leaves no time for training. An
untrained or forgetful Security Staff is of no
use to security. In order to overcome this
aspect a very well coordinate effort was made
at all project sites/installations to train men
in Fire Power Training, Boat Patrolling and
communication skills. A special emphasis
was made to cover up gaps by observations,

patrolling, erecting of barriers creating


obstacles and employing security measures
at approaches. The repeated training exercise
is a valuable tool for ensuring the safety of
WAPDA Employees, Visitors, Foreigners and
Assets. Special courses were conducted to
train manpower at different Schools of
Instruction, mock exercise were conducted
in Tarbela primarily to check the reaction of
the Security Staff against any eventuality.
Similar exercises were planned in all the
projects to draw useful lessons and
conclusions.

Escort Duties

Ceremonial Duties
The performance of Security Staff generally
remains unnoticed in peace time until they
perform high profile tasks or ceremonial tasks.
The performance of Security Staff in the year
2014-2015 under review added numerous
colors in the performance of ceremonial duties.
The special effects created on the
Independence Day August 14, 2014 by
introducing special Flag hosting ceremony.

Fire Fighting
Structural security encompasses effects. Fire
Fighting is an integral component of security
and its performance under the review period
was increasingly effective. The unfortunate
incidents were contained by reacting so swiftly
that none of the incident was allowed to convert
from minor to major. In the history of Fire
Fighting special Award was given to the fire
fighters by the Authority for their outstanding
performance. The will to fight under extreme
conditions by the Fire Fighting staff by risking

FINANCE & ADMINISTRATION

Interference in foreigner activities working for


the WAPDA is one of the major activities of
miscreants in prevailing security environments
in the country. WAPDA Security Force (WSF)
as ever alert and responsive has been able to
avert such attempts in totality so far. The shared
concept of intelligence and close study of
happenings around us are the main guidelines
of security policy. To re-read security hazards
and to readjust accordingly each time WAPDA
Security Force was found prepared thus hailed
WAPDA Security Force in accomplishing Escort
and Protection duties at the ceremonies of

Warsak Dam, HPS Dasu, Keyal Khawar, Diamir


Basha and other installations. So far Escort

safety and security.

their life even after being engulfed in fire


hazards was a reflection of tremendous
motivational factor. All fire incidents were
fought to their best. The fire incidents in
WAPDA House, Lahore were well addressed
by Fire Fighting Staff along with Security Staff
which was much appreciated by Chairman
WAPDA.

To chalk out action plan for the Security of
WAPDA Hydro Power Project along with KKH
necessary coordination has been made with
the respective Incharge of the Projects. No. of
meeting for confidence building measures for
the local population and with LEAs has been
conducted. The impeding threat although
dictates optimum utilization of resources but
well chalked out Security plan helps in averting
nefarious designs of the miscreants if all stake
holders remain conscious against National
obligations. This action plan has been prepared
as a start line for the easy commencement of
the projects security aspects thereby initiating
a thought process for the stake holders to
achieve best possible results in their respective
project.
