1. INTRODUCTION

This is third Bi-Annual Environmental Monitoring Report prepared for Pakpattan Canal &

Sulemanki Barrage Improvement Project (PCSBIP). Details of activities performed under

environmental aspects of the project during July 2015 to December 2015 are described in

this report. Construction activities carried out on both contracts of PCSBIP i.e. Rehabilitation

of Sulemanki Barrage and Rehabilitation of Pakpattan Canal Main Canal, Khadir Branch &

PI Link Canal are included.

Sulemanki Barrage is the first barrage on Satluj River after the river enters into Pakistan

tertiary. The barrage is designed to for 325,000 cusecs discharge and located about 20km

(12 miles) from Haveli Lakha and about 150km (94miles) from Lahore (capital of Punjab

Province). Three Irrigation Canals viz Pakpattan, Fordwah and Eastern Sadiqia Canals are

fed from this barrage. The total canal command area of three canals is 2.5 million acres,

which is 9.25% of the total irrigated area of Punjab (27 million acres) and has considerable

contribution in the agricultural production of Punjab. Three canal command area spread over

the six districts of Punjab i.e. Bahawalnagar, Bahawalpur, Okara, Pakpattan, Vehari and

Lodhran.

Pakpattan Canal off takes from River Sutlej at right side of Sulemanki Barrage. The design

discharge of canal is 6,594 cusecs at head. The total canal command area is about one

million acres distributed in districts Okara, Pakpattan, Vehari and Lodhra on the right side of

the River Sutlej. The main Pakpattan canal is perennial and only close for annual

maintenance requirement during the months of December and January. Khadir Branch and

PI Link Canal are non-perennial and closed during summer.

2. BACKGROUND

Pakistan Irrigation system originally developed during mid 19th and early 20th century and

therefore the major chunk of the system is more than 80 years old. Upgrading and/or proper

maintenance of the irrigation system has not been carried out since the system is

constructed. Pakpattan Canal and distribution network and Sulemanki Barrage were

commissioned in 1926. Feasibility and detail design study of rehabilitation & upgrading of

Pakpattan Canal Main line, Khadir Branch, Pakpattan-Islam Link Canal and Sulemanki

Barrage were completed in 2013. The project named as “Pakpattan Canal & Sulemanki Barrage Improvement Project (PCBIP)” was awarded for construction in mid 2014. The project is divided into two construction contract:

2.1 Pakpattan Main Canal (Upper & Lower), Khadir Branch and PI-Link Canal

Pakpattan Canal and distribution network cultivating about 1.25 million acres was

commissioned in June 1926. The design discharge of Pakpattan Canal was 6,594 cusecs at

head regulator built on the right flank of Suleimanki Barrage. Pakpattan Canal irrigates land

in the districts of Okara, Pakpattan, Vehari, and Lohdran. Pakpattan canal has perennial as

well as non perennial irrigation system and shut down for annual maintaining requirements

during December/January. Khadir Branch and PI Link Canal is a non perennial part of the

system.

Pakpattan Main Canal

In pursuance of Indus Water Treaty (1960), India got the usage rights of the eastern

tributaries of River Indus (Ravi, Sutlej and Beas). Consequently upon the construction of

Bhakra/Nangal Dam on river Sutlej and Pandoh & Pong Dam on Beas, discharges in Sutlej

were reduced significantly. The reduction in average annual flow of Sutlej River after the

treaty is provided in Water Resources Management Directorate WAPDA and given below

River Average Annual Flow from 1922 to 1961

Average Annual Flow from 1985 to 1995

Average Annual Flow 2000 to 2009

Sutlej 7 MAF 5 MAF 1.1 MAF

Significant works for conveying water from western rivers through link canals to overcome

the shortfall in the eastern rivers were devised and constructed. Balloki-Suleimanki Link

canal (B.S Link) brings about 25,000 cusecs from Balloki barrage to feed the off taking

canals of the Suleimanki Barrage. With construction of Sidhni Mailsi Bahawal Link (SMB

Link) Canal Pakpattan main canal was split into two parts i.e. Pakpattan Canal Upper (PC

(U)) from RD 0 to 567 and Pakpattan Canal Lower (PC (L)) from RD 568 to 667. Due to this

intervention, PC (L) now draws its supplies from SMB Link.


PSS Consultants 3

Khadir Branch

Khadir branch off-taking from PC (upper) at RD 112+104/L draws a discharge of 2250

cusecs and irrigates an area of about 329,000 acres and is one of the large non-perennial

canal systems. Khadir branch system has, over the years of use, sustained substantial

damages to the hydraulic structures and the canal prism. The fall structures on this channel

were first remodeled in late thirties by Mr. Prothero & Mr. Burkitt, who changed the fall

sections to stepped and in some cases to expanding glacis type. These falls and some

bridge decks were repaired in the early ninetees but are still facing serious problems and

demand rehabilitation and remodeling, some to the extent of reconstruction which has been

provided in this project.

PI Link Canal

The Pakpattan Islam Link (PI Link) off-takes from RD 406+828/L of Pakpattan Canal (upper)

and transfers about 1000 cs from Pakpattan canal back to Sutlej river U/S of Islam

headworks to feed the Upper Bahawal and Qaim Canals. The water so abstracted from

Pakpattan canal is recouped at RD 267+000 through another link canal named Montgomery

Pakpattan link (MP Link) from LBD canal whose discharge, in consequence, has been

increased by about 1100 cs at its head at Balloki Barrage.

2.2 Sulemanki Barrage

Sulemanki Barrage is one of the four barrages/ headworks constructed under Sutlej Valley

Project (SVP), the other 3 being Ferozepur on its upstream; and Islam and Panjnad on the

downstream side. Sulemanki Barrage was built during 1921-1926 with a designed discharge

capacity of 325,000 cs to irrigate vast tracts of fertile agricultural land lying on both sides of

the Sutlej River. The barrage was formally inaugurated on April 12, 1926. Sadiqia and

Fordwah Canals commenced irrigation on May 1 and Pakpattan canal on June 1, 1926.

Since signing of the Indus Water Treaty 1960, India has construction two storage dams on

Sutlej River and almost all of the flows of the river, except the floods that cannot be stored in

the dams, are being used in India. Historical discharge data indicates that the flood

discharge in the river exceeded the designed capacity of the barrage four times; in 1947

(325,000 cfs), 1950 (332,000 cfs), 1955 (597,000 cfs) and 1988 (499,000 cfs).

3. PROJECT PROFILE

The project profile is summarized in following table:


PSS Consultants 5

Table 1: Project Profile

4. PROJECT PURPOSE

Ever since the construction, the structure of Sulemanki Barrage has suffered heavily from

floods during the monsoon seasons. The barrage is about 86 years old now and aging

process with inadequate / deferred maintenance has also contributed towards general

deterioration of the different components of the barrage.

Similarly, Pakpattan Canal was heavily damaged during floods of 1988 when the discharge

escaping through the breaches in RMB of Sulemanki Barrage destroyed the canal prism in

the first ten miles or so and damaged the allied structures. The uncontrolled flow discharge

entered the canal and also obliterated the canal prism with scours and erosion in many

places. The hydraulic structures have also sustained substantial ageing defects. No major

rehabilitation works have been carried out during the 80 years of life time of the Pakpattan

Canal system consequently the main canal and its distribution system have become less

efficient.

The project is designed to rehabilitate and upgrading of Pakpattan Main Canal (upper &

lower), Khadir Branch, Pakpattan-Islam Link canal and Sulemanki Barrage. The scope of

work includes the following:

Pakpattan Canal

Channel prisms to be rehabilitated and restored to designed sections. This will be

achieved through construction of studs or berm cutting. Where brushwood is

available, killa bushing will be done for berm formation;


PSS Consultants 6

Pakpattan canal Lower will be remodeled to carry the increased discharge of 1160

cs;

Regulators and falls without stilling basin will be reconstructed; downstream of many

fall structures especially on Khadir Branch deep scour pits and embayments have

been formed due to improper energy dissipation. These will be rehabilitated with

proper design of stilling basins.

Structures in deteriorated condition will be rehabilitated and where rehabilitation cost

is not much different from reconstruction, the structures will be re-constructed;

New VR bridges will be constructed to cater for the changed requirements;

Foot bridges will be constructed/rehabilitated;

Raising and strengthening banks of the channels to provide required free board and

cater for hydraulic safety;

Additional cattle ghats will be constructed and the damaged ghats will be

rehabilitated;

Protection works will be provided to minimize embayment near the structures;

Defective & worn out gates and hoisting arrangements will be replaced/rehabilitated;

In Khadir branch, gates are proposed to be installed on the distributary head

regulators as well as cross regulators;

Distribution complex will be constructed at the tail of Pakpattan Canal Upper; and

Residences, offices of staff and regulation quarters at the regulators/falls and

selected Rest Houses to be renovated/constructed.

7.3 Implementation of Environmental Monitoring Plan

External Monitoring

The Contractor hired the services of Apex Laboratory (approved laboratory from EPA

Punjab) for bi-annual environmental monitoring as per the requirement of the contract i.e.

EMP. Apex Laboratory carried out ambient air and water quality testing / monitoring during

August 2015, original test report submitted by the contractor is attached as an Annexure 2.

Monitoring parameters and water quality test results meet the NEQS limits and it can be

concluded that project activities including wastewater disposal at contractor’s camps do not adversely impacting on environmental resources of the area.

Internal Monitoring

Physical Environment

Internal instrumental monitoring of water quality and noise carried out on monthly basis

according to EMP. Five parameters of water quality including pH, Ec, DO, TDS and

temperature were monitored along Pakpattan Canal, Sulemanki Barrage and Camps area.


PSS Consultants 16

Monitoring results are attached under Annexure 2. Water quality monitoring indicates the

project activities do not adversely affect water resources of the area.

Dust monitoring carried out on regular basis as specified in the EMP. All the dust prone

tracks/roads sprinkle with water twice a day during dray and hot weather or at when required

basis.

Noise monitoring conducted at the camp site and at construction site the record is attached

under Annexure 2. Elevated noise levels were found occasionally particularly next to the

generators and plant operation. As an remedial measure the out of order machinery was

immediately repaired or silencer installed to bring the level within the NEQS i.e. 75dB. In

addition it was ensured that ear plugs are used by the machine operators and other workers

near the noise producing activities.

Consultant and Contractor are conducting Noise and surface water quality monitoring at site.

Biological Environment

Uprooting of trees was required for provision of temporary diversions and canal lining work

along Pakpattan Main Canal and Khadir Branch. There was no uprooting of trees required at

Sulemanki Barrage for project activities. Compensation as refurbishment cost was given to

Punjab Forest Department as the plantation along the canals is managed by Forest

Department. Following payments are made to DFO Sahiwal as refurbishment cost.

Forest Department utilized these funds in their annual plantation plan in the vicinity of the

project area.

Fish trapped in the cofferdam, constructed at Sulemanki Barrage, was released to the

downstream of the river by the contractor’s environmental team. All forest, wildlife and

fisheries laws were respected and abided by the site workers and monitored by the

contractor and consultant environmental team. All vehicles, machinery, equipment and

generators used during construction activities were kept in good working condition and be

properly tuned to minimize the adverse impact on waterfowl habitat by reducing noise,

exhaust and land disturbance. Necessary sign boards were displayed to remind the

obligation of labour, visitors and members of public towards Biota.

Social Environment

Public consultations were conducted at villages or daras located near the construction site.

Social Framework Agreements were completed during the consultations in case the

contractor’s utilize any local privately owned resources e.g. tube well, land for borrow

material, public path etc. Redresal Mechanism is followed by keeping the complaint register

on site. So far no complain registered by any community member against the project related

activity. Details of few consultations are given below:

Public consultation was held at RD 384 of PC Upper canal regarding the construction of

temporary diversion channel for construction of new x-Regulator in the canal. Community

was worried about the rehabilitation of their private land at the completion of work. It was

ensured to the land owners that their land will be returned by properly rehabilitated i.e.

level the area, remove all the demolition waste, replace contaminated soil if any with

fertile soil etc.

Public Consultation was held at RD 216 of PC Upper. People were made aware about

the new construction activity of temporary diversion channel. Land acquisition schedule

was properly conveyed to people & they were made sure that they will get full crop

compensation. SFA was also completed with the land owner in the consultation.

A Public Consultation was held at RD 53 PC Upper. People were told about the

construction of new temporary diversion channel from their fields. People were worried

that how will they get crop compensation. They were made assure that a proper crop


PSS Consultants 18

compensation & lease of land will be paid against land acquisition. Also they were told

that they will get job opportunity during company’s scope of work.

Public Consultation was held at settlement near the barrage. The purpose of the

consultations was awareness campaign of the project activities, traffic movement from

borrow area to barrage & status of the employment opportunities provided to the local

community. Overall community was satisfied from the contractor’s working style and happy with the progress in the work at the barrage and handling public traffic issued due

the closure of the road bridge and provision of temporary river crossing at downstream of

the barrage. However, few guys were complained about late payments to local labour by

the contractor. The late payment issue was raised in the EPRM and contractor showed

will to rectify this issue.

Consultant and contractor are conducting Public Consultation with communities at

Pakpattan Canal.

7.4 Site Visit of ADB’s Mission and Site Inspections

ADB mission visited at Suleamnki Barrage and Pakpattan Canal on 8th & 9th of October

2015. The mission started their joint visit from Sulemanki Barrage and inspects deck

replacement and main weir gate rehabilitation work at the barrage. After inspecting the
