Working plan prescription for the forest land proposed for diversion :
In Billawar Forest Division, all the Compartments falling within the Submergence Zone or the Reservoir Area of the proposed Ujh Multipurpose Project, belong to the Chir Working Circle and the Forest Type generally encountered in these forest compartments is the Shiwalik Chir Pine Forests – 9/C1a. The working plan prescribes the following treatments for these forests: 1. Protection from fire by way of construction of fire-lines and controlled burning operations 2. Tending of young regeneration patches by cleaning of the congested patches 3. Inducing regeneration by effective closures and strict fire protection, till the regeneration is established. The area which is unlikely to respond to the closure should be taken up for direct sowing of seeds in patches and planting of seedlings raised in the polythene bags 4. The area highly subjected to grazing are prescribed to be effectively closed to grazing and also for grass cutting and taken up artificial regeneration by planting and patch sowing
6.

The Catchment Area of the Ujh Multipurpose Project is about 1414700 hectares., of which 44% is under High Erosion Category and rest in Low to Medium Erosion Category.

Working plan prescription for the forest land proposed for diversion :
1. Rehabilitation-cum-Protection Working Circle: No regular felling is prescribed (except dry and fallen) and complete rest and strict protection of these forests from various biotic interferences like grazing, fire, encroachments etc. prescribed along with suitable SMC works. 2. Chir Rehabilitation Working Circle: Complete protection of area till establishment of fresh regeneration through ANR/patch sowing and control of grazing prescribed. 3. Bamboo Rehabilitation Working Circle: CUlm selection-culm improvement system is proposed for managing bamboo crop. However, all BL spp. of dia > 10 cm are to be retained and protection of the entire area from various biotic pressures is prescribed. 4. Broad-leaf Improvement Working Circle: No felling is prescribed; further improvement of GS of BL spp. and khair trees through AR/ANR and complete protection of area is prescribed.

DFO
Recommended
Since the proposed project is of national and strategic importance and the benefits envisaged are essential for the region.
Samba forest Division
East Circle Jammu
DFO
Recommended
The project has national strategic importance, the undersigned recommends that the project must be granted the Stage I or In principle approval subject to certain terms and conditions based on the deficiencies which have been noticed in the project proposal in its present form. The grant of Stage II or Final Approval may be granted only after the User Agency diligently removes the deficiencies associated with the present Indent.
Billawar Forest Division
East Circle Jammu
DFO
Recommended
Besides providing the geo political strategic advantage in the form of much more effective utilization of the water of Ujh River, the project will ameliorate the agricultural and power sectors in the otherwise barren Kandi area. It will also be a boon in the dry Kandi belt which is reeling under the peril of the impending water crisis. Therefore, in view of the underlying urgency and the fact that the project has national strategic importance, the undersigned recommends that the Project must be granted the Satge I or In principle approval.
East Circle Jammu
CF
Recommended
The proposed multipurpose project will generate clean power and provide irrigation to the dry Kandi belt of Jammu region in the two districts of Kathua and Samba. Kandi belt faces major water problem due to excessive runoff, soil erosion, land degradation and erratic rainwater distribution in space and time, thereby hampering agricultural production. The proposed project has a huge potential to elevate the living condition of the people in the region and thereby contributing to overall economic growth of the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir by providing the twin driving forces of water and clean energy. The case is recommended for acceptance.
Yes
Nodal Officer
Recommended
The Project will generate clean/green power, has huge irrigation potential for dy/Kandi Belt of Jammu Region, prevent soil erosion, provide drinking water and improve general economic condition of the people living adjoining to the Project Area
