History

In the year of 1942, during the course of horrible Globe War II, an overflow happened in the area of Damodar that almost cut Calcutta city off from all other parts of the nation for an interval of 10 several weeks. However, soon the state government clipped into activity, named W.Voord, a municipal professional of renowned the state of Tennessee Valley Power (or TVA). He greatly developed the strategy of the public works by the end of 1945. Moreover, the first dam of separate Indian came up on September 7, 1953 at the area of Tilaiya. Soon area Konar, area of Maithon as well as Panchet Dam area followed in its actions in the year of 1955, 1957 as well as 1959 respectively.

Operation

Renowned Damodar stream is a periodic stream, generally around 82%. The renowned local stream is loaded up by rainfall in the months of July to September.  It started from 1 July month  to the month of 31 Oct is the stuffing interval during which rain water is saved and the saved rain water is used for watering by the downstream places of  area of Burdwan, wave energy creation and ratings of other actions.

Maithon Hydel

The renowned Maithon great  Energy Place ( or also known as MHPS) is situated on the stream Barakar area only  12.9 km distance above its flowing together with the area of Damodar close to the edge of district Dhanbad  as well as Burdwan zones of the declares of state Jharkhand as well as  Western Bengal state respectively. The exclusive function of this is that it is situated subterranean in the remaining financial institution of the stream and is the first of its type in the country of India. The great ability station has a complete producing potential of around 60 MW with total three models of about 20 MW each parts. The local MHPS is situated at about 1000 legs just below the stage, and is the first of its type, in the Southern Eastern part of Asia.

Reservoir Operation

An enormous hydro useful meteorological place with modern VHF or wireless features prevails over the area of Damodar catchments area. On a real-time basis (or hourly, only three on per hour basis, or six hourly) information of stream evaluate, rainfall stream release are calculated and passed on through current interaction network to the central overflow place at the area of Maithon. The Native Indian Meteorological Department (or IMD), city of Kolkata, transfer the rainfall prediction for the coming 24 hours for the entire local Damodar Area region to the area of Maithon.

A modern computer model at the Flood Predicting Unit (or FFU) at the area of Maithon reports the influx into the tanks based on the true time information as well as rainfall prediction of important IMD. According to some specific guidelines in the renowned Damodar Area Tank Control Manual, important Member Assistant of local DVRRC (or also called Damodar Area Tank Control Committee). After an important conversation with local SE, the area of Damodar Watering Group state Government.of state Western Bengal,  local Tank Operation of important DVC as well as  SE,  the local area of Tenughat of state Government.Of state Jharkhand chooses day to day, launch of water from the renowned Maithon Dam as well as renowned Panchet Dam area, and issues important advice for launch of water through the public works.

Problems

Some Individuals engaged in energy creation declare that water need to be loaded extra ordinary so that it would be excellent for energy creation. Some other Individuals engaged in overflow management division declare ,  water storage space need to be reduced, in order to  control  situation of extreme rainfall a overflow such as  scenario occurs then it may be a overflow support.

This is very important inconsistent characteristics, so water need to be kept at and the best possible stage to fulfill both parties. Dead Storage Potential of the dam during the preliminarydecades was much extra than the storage space capacity now. The important part of a water storage’s capacity that is similar to the number of water below the stage of the smallest store (the important lowest provide water level), is also known as the Deceased Storage Potential. This, improve is mainly due to the sedimentation storage space. Just because of some individual as well as commercial actions, the storage space capacity has reduced over the decades. As per the style of dam given by famous Voord capacity level, need to be about 500 feet (or total 150 m). However, due to non-acquisition of area the level is around 495 feet (or total 151 m).

The important holding capacity of this local dam as developed by famous Voodro was about 1,000,000 cu. However, at the time of development, it was around 250,000 cu feet and now it has a holding capacity of less than about 100,000 cubic feets. The total cost of eliminating placed silt in the dam is similar to the development of a new dam, therefore financially not practical. If the silt is eliminated and saved in the financial institutions of the dam, then during monsoon the silt would be cleaned off into the dam. Maithon Dam has finished 60 decades in service, and this normally has an impact on the components, despite frequent servicing by DVC.

Flood Warning

Before great  launching the water from local  dam's spillway gateways, some necessary caution is conveyed to region government bodies, impacted downstream sectors, cities and others such as mature management government bodies of the area of  Burdwan, area of Bankura, Purulia area ; I important OW work  Department.  State Government of work are including WB and EE or DHW, area of Durgapur Member (or RM) important CWC, capital city Delhi. Whenever there is a release from the area of Maithon and area of Panchet public works going more than about  1,132 cu feets , special preparations are transmitted through  government Tv channel DOORDARSHAN as well as important  AIR local information programs.  The popular DOORDARSHAN, city of Kolkata   telecasts everyday climate predictions with potential rainfall fall in the local Damodar Area. Maithon Dam has finished its 60 effective decades in the service to the country but the servicing of the tank is an issue of issue. In these total 60 decades, the stage of the tank has reduced, so it is bombarded very soon.

So to sustain the safe stage the water has to be launched through public works. It has a double effect; first, it strikes poorly to the watering in the local Burdwan District the energy creation potential renowned MHPS such as the potential of the tank has reduced in last total 60 decades. The total rainfall water takes a lot of ground with it and the same forms down in the tank resulting in loss of the stage. There need to be some remedial activity taken to make the life of area of Maithon Dam. There is an important contamination risk to the city as many sectors are being set up in the area. There is an important heat energy (or also called MPS) being greatly designed in the local area. These are many water-consuming sectors and would eat water from the stream Barakara area itself. This is highly going to make contamination and some water problems in the local area. The important subterranean stage has already reduced over the decades, which further variations the water sources.
