GENERAL INFORMATION
2.1.1 Introduction
Sikkim has elected to join the Indian Union to become 22nd state in 1975; It is one of the
most picturesque regions of Asia. The bowl like, mountain –girdled state in the eastern
Himalayas bordered on the west by Nepal, on the north by Tibet, on the east by Bhutan
and the south by Darjeeling district of the West Bengal, lies between 27 0 to 280 north
latitude and 880 to 890 east longitudes. The Sikkim is the youngest and small hill state of
India having an area of 7096 Sqkm. Sikkim is surrounded by important mountain ranges.
The chola range of mountains on its east forms the watershed between it and Bhutan on
one side and chumbi valley of Tibet on the other. The well-known singalila ridge is of the
great Himalayas peaks.
Sikkim is divided into four districts. The most populated area is the Eastern district,
which contains the capital town Gangtok followed by Southern and Western districts.
The northern district is sparsely populated because of its inhospitable climate and steep
ridges. Lying along the slopes of Himalayas between Tibet and plain of India, cut off
from the rest of the world by mighty mountains, Sikkim’s scenic beauty has no parallel in
the East Sikkim’s historic past, mystic religion, sublime monasteries and age old rituals
have an attraction hardly to be found anywhere else in the world.
Sikkim is mountainous terrain with cliffs and valleys. Dominating both legend and
landscape is the mighty massif of Kanchendzonga known to the outside world as
Kanchenjunga, it is the third highest peak in the world, towering at 8550 meters.
Sikkim is drained by number of Perennial Rivers. However, the two main river systems
are Teesta and Rangit. The other entire stream eventually joins one or the other. Rangit
10
Preliminary Feasibility Report
Lingza HE Project (3 x 40 MW)
also joins the Teesta just near the broader between Sikkim and West Bengal at Melli.
Besides the river, there are number of lakes and hot springs which add to the beauty of
the region. The important hot springs are Phut sachu, Raeong sachu, Yumthang and
Momay.
2.1.2 Topography
Geographical area of Sikkim State is about 7300 sq. km. The maximum horizontal length
from north to south is about 112 Km. whereas the maximum width from east to west is 90
Km. The Tibetan Plateau on the north, Nathula and other passes on the north east, Bhutan
on the south east, Darjeeling district of West Bengal on the south and Singalila range of
Nepal from the boundaries of this picturesque Himalayan State. It is a hill state having no
plain area. The altitude above mean sea level varies from 213m in the south to over
8500m in the northwest. The Khangchedzonga, the third highest peak in the world at an
elevation of about 8550m adorns the state with its beautiful range covered with shining
snow. Gangtok, the capital is about 1677m above mean sea level. The northern part of the
state is cut into deep escarpments. The northern part is not populated except in Lachung
and Lachen valleys. Southern Sikkim is, however, more open and fairly well cultivated.
2.1.3 Rivers
The river Teesta is one of the main Himalayan Rivers, which originates in the glaciers of
Sikkim at an elevation of over 8500m above mean sea level. River rises in mountainous
terrain and is formed mainly by the union of two hill streams Lachen Chu and Lachung
Chu at Chungthang in North Sikkim. After the confluence of Lachen Chu and Lachung
chu at Chungthang, the river gradually increases in width and takes a wide flowing down
to Singhik, dropping in elevation from 1550m to 750m. At Singhik, the river receives one
of the its major tributaries, the Talung chu on its right. Tolung Chu originates from the
Talung glaciers, which are the part of the Khangchendzonga range. From Singhik, the
rivers flow towards Dikchu in a very deep valley and drops from 750mto 550m. From
Dikchu the river flows in a big curve again down to the Singtam with a drop of about
11
Preliminary Feasibility Report
Lingza HE Project (3 x 40 MW)
200m. The Rongnichu, which drains the Changu lake area joins Teesta from left at
Singtam and the river receives Rangpo Chu at Rangpo. After Rangpo, Teesta start
widening rapidly and is joined by the great Rangit at Melli bazar on Sikkim – West
Bengal border.
2.1.4 Communication
By Air
Bagdogra is the nearest airport of Sikkim. There are regular scheduled flights operated by
the Indian airlines and other private airlines between Calcutta, the capital of West Bengal
and Bagdogra and also between New Delhi and Bagdogra. Jeep taxis are available
outsides Bagdogra airport for Gangtok. Gangtok is 124 kms from Bagdogra and the
journey takes about 4 hours by jeep and 5 hours by bus.
By Rail /Road
The two closest railway stations to Gangtok are Siliguri junction, (Meter Gauge) which is
114km away and New Jailpaiguri (Broad Gauge), which is 125km away. A number of
trains are available for Calcutta, Delhi, Guwhati and other important cities of India.
Besides jeep taxis, Sikkim National Transport and other private buses ply regularly
between Sikkim and Siliguri.
2.1.5 The Project
2.1.5.1 Background
In order to exploit vast hydro potential in the country and to achieve the ideal hydro
thermal mix of 40:60, the Honourable Prime Minister of India had launched a hydroelectric initiative on 24th May 2003 to develop 50,000MW hydro power potential in the
country. Accordingly, based on the results of the preliminary ranking studies of Central
Electricity Authority, 162 hydroelectric power schemes with estimated installed capacity
of 50,560MW were selected in 16 states for preparation of Pre Feasibility Reports. The
work of preparation of PFR’s was entrusted by Ministry of Power under overall
12
Preliminary Feasibility Report
Lingza HE Project (3 x 40 MW)
coordination of CEA to NHPC Ltd, SJVN Ltd, NEEPCO, WAPCOS, KPCL, HPSEB and
UJVN Ltd as consultancy work. NHPC was entrusted a total number of 43 schemes of
21345 MW comprising of 7 schemes in Indus -Jhelam Basin J&K, 25 schemes in DihangDibang-Subansiri Basins Arunachal Pradesh, 1 scheme in Narmada Basin Madhya
Pradesh and 10 schemes in Teesta Basin Sikkim. The Lingza is one of the such scheme
for PFR.
2.1.5.2 About The Project
The project is located on the river Ringpi chu in Dzongu area of North district of
Sikkim. The headquarter of the district North Sikkim is at Mangan. The project involves
construction of a 75m high concrete dam, a 4.0 Km long headrace tunnel and an
underground powerhouse with an installed capacity of 120 MW. The project shall
generate 477 MU of energy in a 90% dependable year. The dam site is located about 5.0
Km u/s of the confluence of river Ringpi Chu and Rangyong Chu.and 6.0Km u/s of
village Lingza. The underground powerhouse is located about 750 m u/s of the
confluence of Ranyong Chu and Ringpi Chu near the place called Chhana. The village
Lingza, nearest to Power house site, is well connected from Mangan by 17 km long state
PWD road.
2.2
POWER SCENARIO AND EXISTING INSTALLATION
2.2.1 Power System In India
The Power System in India has grown from small, isolated stations, serving limited
consumers in and around large cities, into large regional Power Grids. The generating
capacity installed in the country has already grown to 107903.53 MW by March 2003.
For the purpose of system planning and operation the country has been divided into
following five geopolitical regions: Northern, Western, Southern, Eastern and NorthEastern regional power grids and the transmission system are being progressively interconnected for efficient operation of these five regional grids.
13
Preliminary Feasibility Report
Lingza HE Project (3 x 40 MW)
The objective of the system development is to evolve self-sufficient regional grid catering
to the individual regional power demands. It is also aimed at achieving the maximum
benefits from integrated operation, through a proper mix of thermal and hydro generation
and ultimately to tie the five regional grids together to form a strong National Power
Gird, providing even greater reliability.
The proposed Lingza Hydro electric project located in north Sikkim is envisaged to feed
power at a pooling point near Teesta III H.E. Project (Approx 2 Km from Teesta-III) via
one double circuit line.
2.2.2 Power Position in North Sikkim Region.
The total installed capacity in Eastern Region is 16696.68 MW.Out of this only 2459.51
MW is hydel installation. Thus the Hydro-thermal mix is 15:85, which is well below the
national average of 25:75 and desirable ratio of 40:60.
The power supply position for Eastern region during 10th and 11th Five Year Plans is
summarised in Table2.1. The power and energy availability and requirements during and
after 10th Plan period in the Eastern Region is shown in Tables as projected in the 16th
Electric Power Survey, published by CEA.
Even considering the coordinated operation of existing hydro and thermal stations, as
well as benefits from ongoing projects and also from the schemes cleared by CEA, the
Eastern region is expected to face peak power and energy deficits during most of the 10th
five Year Plan. The power situation in the region is dynamic and it is expected that the
power generated from this project shall be cheap and helpful to the region as compared to
thermal and other expensive power in the region.

Existing Power Installations In Sikkim
First time, a micro hydel station was established in Sikkim on the bank of Ranikhola at
Lower Sichey Busty with an installed capacity of 10 KW on 27th May 1927 for the needs
of the members of the Royal family and Gangtok. Later, Lower Lagyap Hydel Project with
an installed capacity of 12MW was constructed by Govt. of Sikkim and this was a big
boom. Presently following hydel schemes totaling 95.70MW are under operation in the
state.

SOCIO-ECONOMIC AND OTHER ASPECTS
3.2.1 Demographic Features
As per the 2001census of India, the total population of the State is 540,493. The overall
density of population in the State is 76 per sq. Km. East district is the most populated
where as North's density only 7 and is the least populated. Sex ratio (females per
thousand male) in 1981 was 835, where as it had improved in 1991 to 878 and in 2001
has shown a declining trend with a value of 875. There are only eight urban towns and
urban population is 9.10% of total population. Literacy rate was 56.94% (19th position)
in 1991 and has increased to 70.65% in 2001. The rural literacy rate in 2001 is 68.59%
whereas the urban literacy rate is 85.80%.
The economy of Sikkim is mainly based on agricultural and animal husbandry.
Approximately 11% of the total geographical area is under agriculture. The work force
participation rate as per 2001 census is 48.52%. The female participation rate in Sikkim is
also much higher than the national average. This is an important aspect of the hill
economy, as productivity is low and hence all the able-bodied people are employed in
agriculture and other activities. Cultivators account for the greater majority of the people
in the State. Animal husbandry is an integral part of the house hold economy of the
region. There are certain household industries also which substantially adds to house hold
incomes. The past one and half decade has witnessed a tremendous upward swing in
various development programme giving a new thrust to the Sikkim economy. This
process has increased wage employment opportunities. The area in the vicinity of the
project is populated. The human settlements are scattered and the human population as
per the 1991 census up to different aerial distances from the project are given in below.

TOPOGRAPHIC AND GEOTECHNICAL ASPECTS
4.1
INTRODUCTION
Central Electricity Authority proposed construction of Lingza hydroelectric scheme on
Ringpi Chu near Ishana in order to generate hydroelectricity from its water potential. The
scheme envisaged construction of a diversion structure upstream of Ishana, a water
conductor system in the left bank of Ringpi Chhu and a powerhouse downstream of
confluence of Ringpi Chu and Rangyong Chu. The scheme was expected to generate
approximately 160 MW of power. The task of preparation of pre- feasibility report was
assigned to NHPC. As per the MOU, GSI reports and site visits of experts would form
major in puts for topographic and geotechnical aspects. The present appraisal is based on
study of topographic sheet 78 A/6 and reconnaissance traverse that was undertaken by
mid October.
A study of the area was undertaken and a few modifications were made in layout of the
project, because of Panan scheme, which has been proposed in the downstream. Now, a
diversion structure shall be constructed approximately 700m upstream of Ishana, a 4 km
long water conductor system in the right hill and an underground powerhouse upstream
of confluence of Ringpi and Rangyong Chhu. The tail water shall be discharged above
the FRL of Panan Scheme. The geological report from GSI has been received and placed
as annexure 4.1.

REGIONAL TOPOGRAPHIC AND GEOTECHNICAL FEATURES
River Teesta in Sikkim is a major river originating from Zemeu glaciers and generally
flows in north-south direction, at a steeper gradient. The river is joined by several
tributaries major amongst them being Yumthang Chu, Zemu Chu, Talung Chu, Dik Chu
and Rangpo Chu, apart from others join the river. The river valleys in this region are ushaped while, as the tributaries had developed deep gorges, which are bound by steep

slopes. A thick vegetal cover occupies the hill slopes. These hill slopes are generally used
for cultivation of cardamom.
A brief of regional geological aspect of this area has been provided. The Eastern
Himalaya covers the Sikkim- Darjeeling-Bhutan and Arunachal Pradesh sectors,
extending from the eastern Nepal to western Burma. The higher Himalaya is a zone of
crystalline rocks dividing two distinct lithofacies association in the south and the north. It
is designated as the Axial belt. The northern zone comprising the Tethyan PalaeoMesozoic sedimentary sequence forms the Trans -Axial belt. To the south of the Axial
belt occurs the Inner belt, comprising thrust sheets of Proterozoic-Upper Palaeozoic
formations, while the foothill belt is represented by para-autochthonous Siwaliks. This
scheme is valid for the entire Eastern Himalaya, upto the Lohit District of Arunachal
Pradesh, where the geological picture does not conform to this general scheme. The
stratigraphic sequence provided by GSI report on Ringpi Hydroelectric Scheme has been
brought out hereunder for the purpose of regional geological setup of the area. According
to this report the region from south to north is occupied
by Gondwana, Daling,
Chungthang and Central Crystalline Gneissic group of rocks.

TOPOGRAPHIC AND GEOTECHNICAL ASPECTS OF COMPONENT
STRUCTURES
The region is thickly vegetated and falls within Tolung Reserve Forest. From the peruse
of topographic sheet 78 A/6 Jumthul Chhu an E-W flowing nala originating from Jumthul
glacier meets Dwathang Chhu near Tolung and thus give rise to Ringpi Chhu. Beyond
this confluence Ringpi Chhu flows almost N-S with occasional easterly and westerly
swings. Upstream of Ishana the nala takes a southwesterly direction till it meets
Rangyong Chu. Beyond the confluence of jhumthul Chhu and Dwathang Chhu near
Tolung the nala is joined by few tributaries namely Ludul Chhu, Pegor Chhu, Kangcha
Chhu and Zong Chhu all left bank tributaries. The area is bound by ridges, which
generally trend NE-SW and follow the general strike of formations. The river flows in a
steep gradient. The project area is occupied by Central Crystallines of Higher Himalaya.
Ringpi Chhu almost flows along the strike of the formations. Entire area has a highly
rugged terrain with elevation in vicinity varying from 1600 M to 6000 M. Near Shobrung
and Ishana the topography is approximate as indicated in the topographic map.
The area is approachable by a fair weather road upto Lingza beyond which a foot track
reaches Tolung. In general the valley slopes are occupied by slope wash material, while
rock fromations are exposed as steep ridges.
4.3.1 Diversion Structure
The proposed diversion structure is located approximately 700m upstream of Ishana.
Here, Ringpi takes a westerly swing and flows southwesterly to southerly. The area was
28
Preliminary Feasibility Report
Lingza HE Project (3 x 40 MW)
studied in detail to assess the proposed alignment and any possible alternative alignment.
During the study it was observed that in vicinity of Ishana the river has carved a wide
valley with gentle to moderate side slopes. From upstream of Ishana and upto Shobrung
the river flows in a gentler gradient and has deposited a wider terrace, however,
downstream of Shobrung the nala flows in a steeper gradient. Also, upstream of the
proposed location the nala flows in cascades within a steep gradient. Further upstream the
nala section is inaccessible, however it is observed that a thick pile of debris material
(approximately 15m) comprising boulders, cobbles and pebbles in a silty/sandy matrix
occupies the riverbed section (Photo-1). The river valley is approximately 300m wide. A
thick pile of slope wash material occupies both the right and left bank slopes and the
same is under a thick vegetal cover. The slopes are comparatively steeper while the right
bank slopes are moderate and become steep towards higher elevation, which show rock
exposure. The area is under a thick vegetal cover. The right bank slopes are being used
for cardamom cultivation. The area is occupied by rock exposures of gneisses, which are
strong to very strong. The rock formations trend NE-SW dipping northwesterly (Plate4.1). Occasional warping in rock types is noticed. Downstream of place Be a massive
band of yellowish quartzite is noticed. The area is required to be investigated in detail to
assess the bedrock depth and abutment conditions.
4.3.2 Water Conductor System
A 4 Km long head race tunnel has been proposed in the left hill. A recci traverse from
lingza along the foot track in left bank of Ringpi was undertaken upto place Be. After
crossing the nala at place Be a traverse was undertaken from place Be to Ishana. The area
is bound by steep rid ges, which trend NE-SW. The slopes along the foot track are
occupied by a pile of slope wash material. Nevertheless, a few intermittent reaches show
rock exposures. Also rock exposures are observed towards higher elevations. From a
study of the topographic map it is seen that the water conductor system is crossed by
several small drainages. Mostly these drainages are dry. During the field visit a nala
downstream of Be was seen to carry a little discharge.
29
Preliminary Feasibility Report
Lingza HE Project (3 x 40 MW)
This water conductor system shall be housed within the rock types of gneisses with
occasional bands of augen gneisses. A thick band of quartzite was observed in vicinity of
place Be. This band appears to be 150-200m thick. Since the contact between the two is
under a debris its nature could not be ascertained. The gneisses and quartzites are strong
to very strong and are expected to offer a good tunneling media. The rock types trend
NE-SW dipping 40-65º towards NW (Plate-4.1). Sufficient superincumbent cover is
available above the tunnel. Prima-facie no major drainage appears to have deeply incised
the proposed tunnel alignment.
4.3.3 Powerhouse
The powerhouse location was fixed keeping in view the FRL of Panan Scheme.
Accordingly, it was proposed to keep the tail water above the FRL of Panan Scheme. A
foot track runs above the proposed powerhouse location and the present appraisal is
based on the observations made along this foot track. At the proposed powerhouse
location the formation are exposed as steep rocky escarpments. A thick pile of slope wash
material occupies the area along the foot track. An underground powerhouse has been
contemplated since steep ridges bind the area. The underground powerhouse area shall be
housed within gneisses, which occupy the area. These trend NE-SW dipping towards NW
(P late-1). Fair to good rock media is expected during powerhouse excavation. Sufficient
superincumbent cover is available above the proposed powerhouse cavern. The
orientation of powerhouse shall be suitably aligned with respect to principal
discontinuity.
4.4
SEISMICITY
The site lies within Zone-IV of seismic zoning map of India IS 1893 (Part-I) 2002.
Technical report on seismic history and seismicity of the teesta basin of sikkim covering
proposed sites for hydroelectric schemes has been collected from IMD and enclosed as
annexure 4.2. The report contains a list of earthquake events that have occurred within
30
Preliminary Feasibility Report
Lingza HE Project (3 x 40 MW)
the region. The Seismic data for the region covering longitude 86-90º and 25-29º has
been analyzed. The probable intensity of earthquake within seismic zone-IV corresponds
to intensity VIII on Modified Mercali Scale. Notable earthquakes that have occurred
close to this area are Cachar 1869 (M 7.5), Great Assam Earthquake 1897 (M 8.7),
Dhubri 1930 (M 7.1), Bihar-Nepal Earthquake 1934 (M 8.3), Assam Earthquake 1950 (M
8.5) and Nepal-India border earthquake 1988 (M 6.4). The maximum intensity
experienced in Sikkim region during Great Assam Earthquake, 1897 was VIII (MMI) and
during Bihar-Nepal border earthquake, 1934 was VII (MMI).
Two major tectonic features occur in the area namely MBT (Main Boundary Thrust) and
MCT (Main Central Thrust) besides other minor features. Many past occurrences of
earthquakes have been associated with these major lineaments.
4.5 GEO-PHYSICAL SURVEY
The area at dam site is covered by heavy boulders and the opposite bank was not
accessable and is connected by 5 km long hilly footpath. Hence the geophysical survey
was not feasible at dam location. The rock is fully exposed in the power house area,
therefore geo-physical survey was not required.
4.6 CONSTRUCTION MATERIAL SURVEY
The availability of river shoals may not suffice the requirement of construction material.
Hence, the alternative arrangements for construction material have to be explored. The
area is bound by steep rocky ridges, therefore the quarries for construction material can
be developed.
4.7 RECOMMENDATIONS
•
At the dam axis and powerhouse area, few drill holes are required to assess
overburden thickness and its amenability for construction of various structures.
•
Detailed geological mapping of the project components need to be carried out.

RIVER SYSTEM AND BASIN CHARACTERISTICS
Ringpi Chu is one of the major tributary of Talung chu river which in turn is one of the
major tributary of river Teesta and meets Teesta at Singhik on its right bank. Ringpi Chu
intercepts a substantial catchment area and is formed by two streams originating at high
elevations having snow catchment in their upper reaches. The river has substantial flows
and a steep gradient. Talung Chu originates from the Talung glacier, which is a part of
the Kanchanjunga range. The river is known by different names in different reaches. In
the upper reach it is known as Rukel Chu, further downstream it is called Rangyong Chu
and in the lower reaches it is known as Tolung Chu. Tolung Chu is fed by a number of
tributaries having large drainage areas at their confluence.

The river Teesta is one of the main Himalayan Rivers, which originates in the glaciers of
Sikkim at an elevation of over 8500m above mean sea level. It is being snow fed by the
glaciers Zemu, Changame Khanpu, Talung etc. It is an international river, which flows
through the states of Sikkim and West Bengal in Indian Territory and then to Bangladesh.
The river rises in mountainous terrain and is formed mainly by the union of two hill
streams Lachen Chu and Lachung Chu at Chunthang in North Sikkim. The river upto this
reach generally flows in a very steep gradient and the slope of the Teesta river upto the
confluence of Lachen chu and Lachung chu is about 1 in 20. After the confluence of
Lachen chu and Lachung chu at Chungthang the river gradually increases in width and
takes a wide loop flowing down to Singhik dropping in elevation from EL 1550 m to EL
750 m. It is here after traversing about 20 Km that the river confluences with Tolung
Chu.
The area has a rugged terrain with the surrounding peaks reaching a maximum elevation
of approximately 4000m. The nallah joins Teesta river almost perpendicularly. The
terrain hosts a rich growth of vegetation. In general the river flows in southeasterly
direction. Numerous valleys are seen in the area, which are occupied by cultivated
terraces. Few high level terraces have been observed in this area especially in vicinity of
Lingza and Kayem village.
5.2.1 Cascade Development In Teesta Basin
The river Teesta has tremendous potential for development of hydro power, as the river
descends from an elevation of about 3600m to about 300m over a distance of about 175
Km. According to the preliminary reconnaissance survey by Central water and power
Commission in 1974, the river could be harnessed under a cascade development for
hydro power generation. The cascade development proposed at that stage consisted of
power generation in six stages on river Teesta. Out of these schemes, NHPC had
submitted a DPR for Teesta H.E project, Stage -III in 1990. The diversion structure for
Teesta-III was proposed to be constructed at Chungthang, which lies downstream of the
35
Preliminary Feasibility Report
Lingza HE Project (3 x 40 MW)
confluence of Lachen Chu and Lachung Chu. Another project under Teesta Basin
development, which is under execution by NHPC, is Teesta Stage-V having an installed
capacity of 510 MW, where a diversion structure is being built at Dikchu, about 2 Km
downstream of confluence of Dikchu with Teesta. About 70km downstream of Teesta-V,
NHPC has been entrusted two projects namely, Teesta Low Dam H.E projects, Stage-III
& IV, having an installed capacity of 132 MW and 160 MW respectively.
5.2.2 Catchment Area
The catchment area of the proposed scheme lies between Longitude 88o16′00” E to
88o 32′00” E and Latitude 27o 35′00” N to 27o 45’00” N. The catchment area upto the
proposed dam site is about 198 Sq.km. The catchment is both snowfed as well as rainfed.
The proposed diversion structure lies at Longitude 88 o 28′00” E and latitude 27 o 36′00” N.
The catchment Plan is shown in Plate-5.1.
The catchment plan has been prepared from 1:50000, Survey of India toposheets. The
entire catchment is covered in toposheets no. 78A/6, and 78A/2. The area above
EL4600m is about 74 Sq.km and has been assumed to be the snowfed area in the
catchment. Thus the rainfed and snowfed area in the catchment are 124 Sq.km and 74
Sq.km respectively.
5.2.3.1
Temperature And Humidity
The climate in the region is fairly humid and moist. The abrupt variation in altitude is
chiefly responsible for abrupt changes in the climatic conditions and aided by the
complex orography, the area experiences frequent rainfall of varying intensity and
duration. The maximum and minimum temperature varies from 390 C in summer to 60 C
in winter and the relative humidity varies from 80% to 100%. Temperature and relative
humidity observations are being made in the basin at Dikchu site where Teesta-V H.E
project is being constructed by NHPC and at TLDP-III and TLDP-IV sites, as a part of
cascade development on Teesta river. The monthly maximum, minimum temperatutre

5.2.4 Precipitation Characterstics
In the Teesta basin the southwest monsoon normally sets in the third week of May and
withdraws in the second week of October. The major portion of the catchment being hilly
and the river flowing in steep gradient, heavy rains in the upper and middle catchments
has an immediate effect of rendering the plains to flash floods.
Sh. B.Biswas and C.V.V Bhadram in their paper titled “A study of major rainstorms of
Teesta Basin” and published in Mausam (1984), have studied the rainfall distribution,
major rainstorms and their associated synoptic situations over the catchment based on 22
years data (1960-81). The entire Teesta catchment extending from its origin in north upto
the Indo Bangladesh border has been considered. On the basis of the rainfall distrib ution,
the Teesta catchment has been divided into three parts viz. upper, middle & lower. The
average annual rainfall is 1328 mm, 2619 mm & 3289 mm for the upper, middle and
37
Preliminary Feasibility Report
Lingza HE Project (3 x 40 MW)
lower parts respectively. The monthly breakup of the annual rainfall of the basin is given
in Table 5.2 .

From the table it is clear that July is the wettest month followed by August and June. The
upper, middle and lower catchments receive 71.6%, 78.1% and 83.4% of the annual
rainfall respectively due to southwest monsoon. The catchment area upto the present
proposed scheme comprises the upper and middle portions only.
The authors have considered 53 rainstorms of duration ranging from one to three days in
the study. The selection of storms is based on isohyetal analysis of daily rainfall values.
Out of the 53 rain storms 40 were of 1 day, 11 were of 2 day and only 2 were of 3-day
duration. It was concluded that 1-day duration storm are more frequent, a fact which is
38
Preliminary Feasibility Report
Lingza HE Project (3 x 40 MW)
also supported by the narrow width of the catchment for which the effect of any system
lasts for a shorter duration. No storm of longer duration than 3 day is reported. Majority
of the storms have been reported in July & August. It has also been concluded that rain
storms over this catchment occur in association with any of the following synoptic
situations:
(i) Break monsoon conditions i.e. shifting of the axis of trough close to the
foothills of the Himalayas.
(ii) Eastern end of monsoon trough lying north of Latitude 240 N.
(iii)Movement of trough in west lies across the eastern Himalayas ; and
(iv) Low pressure system lying over or to the west of the catchment.
Many of the rainstorms studied by the authors were seen to occur due to either of the first
two synoptic situations in July & August. A combination of first three synoptic situations
is also a common feature over the area, giving rise to heavy precipitation.
5.2.4.1 Rain Gauge Network
As per the paper of Sh. B.Biswas and C.V.V Bhadram, the network density of rain
gauges in the basin works out to be one raingauge per 300 Sq.km of the basin area. The
data used by them is of 42 raingauge stations working under Indian Meteorology
Department (IMD) and Central Water Commision (CWC), 24 of which are equipped with
self recording raingauges. The rainfall data availability status of the raingauge stations in
the catchment upto Teesta-V H.E project, with NHPC, is shown in Table 5.3.

At all the above raingauge sites, data for few months is missing in between. Raingauge
sites have also been established near Teesta Low dam projects, Stage-III & IV and are
operational since August 2000. Lot of efforts has been made to collect all available
rainfall data in the basin but only rainfall data of 11 stations mentioned above is available
at present. None of the above rainfall stations lie in the catchment of the proposed project
so this data has not been used in the hydrological analysis.

WATER AVAILABILITY STUDY
5.3.1 Stream flow and River gauges
Since Teesta River offers ideal conditions for cascade development of hydroelectric
schemes, the discharge passing through the river is measured at various sites by CWC.
Recently NHPC has also established its various G&D sites on Teesta river since a
number of projects have been entrusted to NHPC as a part of cascade development on the
river. These include Teesta-V, and Teesta Low Dam projects, Stage -III & IV. However,
no G&D data is available on Ringpi Chu, at or near the proposed dam site of Lingza H.E

5.3.2 Present Study
No daily G&D data was available on Ringpi Chu, on which the present project is
proposed. For the pre feasibility study, water availability for the proposed project has
been computed based on the following methodologies:
(i) Based on observed discharges at Tolung Chu (Jan 75 to Aug 85, Apr 90 to Apr
98)
The proposed diversion structure for Lingza project is located on Ringpi Chu, which is a
tributary of Tolung Chu. Daily G&D data is available on Tolung Chu from Jan 75 to Aug
85 and Apr 90 to Apr 98. The site lies downstream of the proposed project on Tolung
Chu, having a catchment area of 731 Sq.km. Average 10-daily series has been prepared
based on this observed data and reduced to dam site using catchment area proportion,
using a reduction factor of 0.21.
(ii) Based on discharge series of Teesta-III H.E project (1976-1984)
Average10-daily series recommended for Teesta-III H.E project by CWC at Chungthang
has been converted at proposed site using catchment area reduction (catchment reduction
factor – 0.15). Thus a series for the period 1976 to 1984 has been obtained.
42
Preliminary Feasibility Report
Lingza HE Project (3 x 40 MW)
(iii) Based on observed G&D data at Lachen (1976-1997)
G&D data observed at Lachen has been converted at proposed site using catchment area
reduction (catchment reduction factor – 0.22). Thus a series for the period 1976 to 1997
has been obtained. Data at Lachen is missing for the years 1986-1988, i.e for 3 years.
This missing data has been filled from the observed data at Dikchu G&D site (Teesta-V)
using catchment area reduction.
(iv) Based on discharge series of Teesta-V H.E project (1976-Feb 2003)
The 10-daily series at Teesta-V H.E project for the period 1976- Feb 2003 has been
converted at proposed damsite using catchment area reduction (catchment reduction
factor – 0.03). The series from 1976-1996 is the approved series by CWC for Teesa-V
and from 1997 to Feb 2003 is the observed data at Dikchu where observations are being
taken by NHPC.
Average 10-daily discharge for all the above four series developed is worked out and
compared. The plot showing this comparison of average 10-daily discharge at Lingza is
enclosed at Figure -5.1. From the plot it is obvious that the average 10-daily of the series
obtained on the basis of G&D data observed on Tolung Chu is on a much higher side as
compared to other three series. Rainfall-runoff relationship could not be established for
the observed data on Tolung Chu as no rainfall data in the catchment of the proposed
project was available. Hence, for pre- feasibility study, the series so obtained on the basis
of Tolung Chu data cannot be adopted as such, it comparatively being on a higher side.
Average 10-daily obtained from other three approaches are almost comparable so need
for further statistical checks is not fe lt necessary. For pre- feasibility stage, the average
10-daily obtained from G&D data at Lachen is recommended for Lingza H.E project.
Though the catchment area reduction factor is very low for all three series, this series has
been adopted as Lachen G&D site has a smaller catchment area as compared to
Chungthang and Teesta-V. After estabilishing G&D site near proposed dam axis and
obtaining more rainfall data in the catchment, detailed water availability study need be
43

done during feasibility/DPR stage. The final 10-daily series at Lingza is enclosed as
Annexure -5.2.
5.4
RESERVOIR ELEVATION AREA CAPACITY CURVE
The reservoir elevation-area-capacity curve for Lingza H.E project has been prepared
from 1:50000 Survey of India toposheets. The contours are available at an interval of
40m the minimum contour being of 1800m. The area enclosed within the contours has
been found using Autocad. Area has been found from elevation 1800m to 1960m at an
interval of 40m. The volume between any two elevations is calculated using the conical
formula :
V = H/3 * (A1 +A2 +√A1 A2 )
Where
V = Volume between two contours
H = Contour interval
A1 = Area at level of first contour
A2 = Area at level of second contour
The incremental volumes thus computed are added up to obtain cumulative volume. The
resultant area capacity curve is enclosed as Figure -5.2. The curve may be improved after
receiving toposheets in scale of 1:25000. The gross capacity at FRL 1850 m is 2.64
Mcum and submergence area is 10.75 Ha.
5.5
DESIGN FLOOD
Design Flood for a project can be estimated by following approaches:
(i)
Deterministic approach using Unit Hydrograph technique.
(ii)
Statistical approach using Flood frequency analysis
(iii)
Empirical methods
44
Preliminary Feasibility Report
Lingza HE Project (3 x 40 MW)
•
Unit Hydrograph technique
Due to non-availability of G&D data and hourly gauges, design storm values in the
proposed catchment, rating curves and observed flood hydrographs could not be
developed for computing the Unit Hydrograph and Design Flood hydrograph.
•
Flood Frequency analysis
Due to non-availability of long term, consistent G&D data near the proposed scheme,
frequency analysis could not be done to estimate the design flood.
•
Empirical Methods
The following empirical relationships have been used to estimate the design flood peak:
(i) Dicken’s formula
Q = CA 3/4
Where C = Dickens constant with value between 11-14 for North- Indian Hilly
catchment. A value of 14 has been adopted in present study.
A = Catchment area in sq.km
Therefore, Q = 14 x 198 3/4
= 739 cumec
(ii) Ali Nawab Jung formula
Q = C(0.386A)(0.925-1/14logA)
Where C = 49 to 60 (55 used)
Q = 55* (0.386*198)(0.925-1/14log(198))
= 1694 cumec
(iii) Computation of Design Flood from Design Flood at Teetsa-III using Dicken’s
formula
The design flood recommended for Teesta H.E project, Stage-III was 4572 cumec. The
total catchment area upto Stage-III dam site is 2786 Sq.km. Lingza H.E project is located
45
Preliminary Feasibility Report
Lingza HE Project (3 x 40 MW)
on Ringpi Chu river which is a tributary of Tolung Chu, which in turn is a major tributary
of Teesta river and both the catchments can be assumed to be hydrologically and hydrometeorologically similar. Therefore, it seems logical to transpose the design flood value
of Teesta-III to proposed dam at Lingza. This transposition has been done by Dicken’s
formula using a conversion factor of 0.138.
Q 1 = CA 1 n
Q 2 = CA 2 n
Where,A 1 = Catchment area of Lingza project
A 2 = Catchment area of Teesta-III project
Q 1 = Design Flood for Lingza project
Q 2 = Design Flood for Teesta-III project
C = Dicken’s constant
n= 0.75
Q Lingza = Q Teesta-III * (A Lingza /A T eesta-III ) 0.75
= 629 cumec
(iv) Computation of Design Flood from Design Flood at Teetsa-V using Dicken’s
formula
The design flood for Lingza project has also been estimated by transposing the design
flood at Teesta-V H.E project using Dicken’s formula. The design flood recommended
for Teesta-V H.E project, having a catchment area of 4307 Sq.km is 9500 cumec. The
conversion factor for converting it at Lingza project, having a catchment area of 198
Sq.km comes out to be 0.099.
Q Lingza = Q Teesta-V * (A Lingza/A Teesta-V) 0.75
= 943 cumec
A comparativ study of flood peak
computed from various methods is placed as Table

For pre-feasibility stage study, a design flood of 940 cumec has been recommended at
proposed dam site.
On availability of more data/information, design flood will have to be estimated by
deterministic approach using unit hydrograph technique and probabilistic approach using
flood frequency analysis in feasibility stage. Also, design flood has been worked out on
the basis of design flood at Teesta-III and Teesta-V, which has been computed using both
unit hydrograph technique and flood frequency analysis.
5.6
SEDIMENTATION
A rate of sedimentation of 0.1385 Ham/Sq.km/Year has been worked out for Teesta-V
H.E project based on suspended sediment observations at Dikchu. In the absence of
sediment data at or near the proposed dam site, the same silt rate of Dikchu may be
adopted for Lingza H.E project too.
The necessity of Detailed sedimentation study is not felt during PFR stage and the same
need be done during feasibility/DPR stage with more observed data at the proposed site
using a suitable method.

CONCEPTUAL PLANNING AND LAYOUT
6.1
INTRODUCTION
The Lingza H.E. project is located in the North district of Sikkim state near village
Ishana. It is a run of the river scheme proposed to harness hydel potential of the Ringpi
Chu, a tributary of river Teesta.
The available maximum gross head of 746 m is
proposed to be utilised for generating 120 MW of Power. A small reservoir of adequate
capacity has been provided as an operating pool to meet diurnal peaking load demands.
6.2
PROJECT COMPONENTS
•
6 m diameter, 400 m long Diversion Tunnel with u/s & d/s coffer dam
•
75 m high & 320m long concrete Dam with a central spillway
•
Intake Structure leading to 2 Nos. 3 m dia D-shaped intake tunnels.
•
Two Nos. Underground Desilting Chambers of size 95m (L) X 5m (W) X 7.5 m (H).
•
One 3.3m diameter horseshoe shaped concrete lined and 4 kms long Head Race
Tunnel with three adits.
•
One 10 m diameter & approx. 40 m high semi-Underground Surge Shaft.
•
One circular inclined Pressure Shaft of 2m diameters, 900 m long each further
bifurcating into 3 numbers steel lined circular penstocks of 1.1 m diameter and length
50 m each up to Power House.
•
Underground Power House of size 100m x 17m x 40m consisting of 3 Pelton units of
40 MW each.
•
One no.3.3m diameter Horseshoe shaped tailrace tunnel of about 250 m length.
The conceptual planning and lay-out of project components have been worked out based
on S.O.I toposheets of 1:50000 scale (toposheet no. 78A/6) with contour intervals 40 m.

Preliminary Feasibility Report
Lingza HE Project (3 x 40 MW)
6.2.1 Conceptual Layout
The choice of location and type of the dam has been made keeping in view the
topography, geology and water availability at various locations of the diversion structure
near the one suggested earlier by CEA. The location of the powerhouse has been fixed
keeping the tailrace outlet at EL 1095 m. This level has been kept same as FRL of the
proposed Panan H E Project.
The location of major component of the project, riverbed levels at dam site, TRT outlet
site and generation capacity of the project as identified in the ranking study undertaken
by CEA in 1990 have been considered during the preparation of this report. The
upcoming hydroelectric projects on Ringpi Chu have been considered in the conceptual
planning of the project.
The layout plan of the project and brief write up as envisaged by CEA have been
enclosed as plate-1 and annexure 6.1 respectively. The cascade development schemes on
the Teesta River as prepared by CEA is enclosed as plate-2 and of Tolung River basin as
plate 3 and 4.
Based on the hydrological and topographical study, reconnaissance survey of the site and
input data of ranking study, a conceptual layout plan of the project was prepared and
discussed in CEA for vetting during sept’03.
6.2.2 Dam and River diversion works
Construction of a 75m high concrete Dam has been proposed across river Ringpi Chu.
The reservoir formed by construction of Dam has a gross storage pre-sedimentation
capacity of 2.64 M.cum and live storage capacity of 1.71 M cum. After sedimentation,
the reservoir is likely to have a live storage of adequate capacity for running the power
station at full capacity for 3-4 hours in a day during the period of lean flows.
55
Preliminary Feasibility Report
Lingza HE Project (3 x 40 MW)
Width of the valley at Dam site varies from 50 m at riverbed level to 320 m at EL 1855
m, which is suitable for a concrete dam. Average bed level at Dam site is EL 1795 m.
FRL is proposed to be fixed at EL 1850 and MDDL at El.1830 m keeping in view the
inflow of water in Ringpi Chu during lean period. The top of the dam has been proposed
to be kept at EL 1855 m and seat of the dam at EL 1780 m after removal of approx. 15.0
m thick overburden. Near the dam axis, right bank is steep, however left bank rises
moderately and becomes steeper at higher elevation. The area is thickly forested and the
slopes are covered by slope wash material. No rock exposure is seen in the dam area.
However on the basis of exposure in the vicinity. It appears that the rock type expected to
be encountered shall be gneiss, which is suitable for founding the dam and housing the
underground structures. The availability of construction material for the dam, cofferdam
and its suitability has been discussed elsewhere in the report.
The overflow section is 30 m long and Non –overflow section is 290 m comprising 165
m on right abutment and 125 m on left abutment. The spillway has three bays each of size
4 m X 6 m with 3.0 m wide piers. The spillway is designed to pass a probable maximum
flood of 940 cumecs with one gate inoperative. The crest of spillway has been kept at
EL1810 m. The low-level orifice type spillway has been provided to flush out the
sediment accumulated in the reservoir to maintain the live storage capacity of the
reservoir. The top width of non-overflow has been fixed as 8 m. The d/s slope of the
Non-overflow section has been proposed as 0.8H: 1V and u/s slope as 0.1H: 1V. The
project area falls within Zone -IV of seismic zoning map.
One no. Concrete lined 6 m dia 400 m long diversion tunnel has been proposed on the left
bank of the river to divert a flood of approx. 300 cumecs of Ringpi chu The design
diversion discharge has been decided based on the experience of various ongoing NHPC
projects in Teesta valley and fast track completion of the project. This data shall however

of more hydrological data & experience gained in the basin e.g.: during the construction
56

of Teesta-V project. In order to divert the river during construction of the dam, an u/s
cofferdam of approx. height 20m and d/s cofferdam of 10 m height is proposed.
6.2.3 Power Intake & Desilting Chambers
The proposed power intake system is on the Left side of the river and consists of two no.
intake and two no. D-shaped intake tunnels of dia 3 m each. Two no intakes are proposed
to keep the desilting chambers dimension within the manageable limits and to put either
of the desilting chambers to inspection and maintenance while the other is in operation.
The intake structures are designed to pass 22.16 cumecs, which is about 20% excess of
turbine discharge of 18.47 cumecs. The invert level of the intake structure has been kept
at El. 1820m taking into consideration the water seal requirement to prevent the vortex
formation and air entrainment. Also, this level being 10m higher than the spillway crest,
the sediment entry in the water conductor system shall be checked. The intake structure
shall be provided with the trash racks to prevent the entry of trash in the water conductor
system. The gross area of the trash racks shall be determined to give a velocity of not
more than 1.5m/s. A mechanical raking machine operated from El.1855m shall clean the
racks.
For the efficient, trouble free and continuous operation of turbines with least possible
wearing and erosion damages due to silt, it is necessary to remove 90% of the sediments
larger than 0.2mm-particle size. Two nos. 5 m wide Dufour type Desilting chambers with
height 7.5 m shall be provided to remove 90% of particles having size greater than or
equal to 0.2m. Two separate intakes lead the water to two independent desilting chambers
95 m long spaced at 30 m c/c, through 25 m long upstream transition which will
gradually reduce the velocity of water in the chamber to 0.25m /sec. The chambers have
been provided with central gutter with holes to facilitate the flushing of settled silt
particles through the flushing tunnel.
A silt flushing conduit at the bottom of each
chamber runs along the length and two flushing tunnels join to form a single silt flushing
tunnel of size 1 m x 1.8 m D -shaped and 500 m length which will discharge the sediment
57

Lingza HE Project (3 x 40 MW)
back into the river d/s of the dam. Thus practically silt free water will be led into the
headrace tunnel. The requirement of desilting chambers is being foreseen, as the TeestaV project, which is d/s of this project, has been provided with the desilting chambers. The
size, alignment, orientation of the chambers can be optimized after more geo-logical,
topo-graphical and sedimentation data becomes available.
.

facilitate excavation of headrace tunnel within the scheduled completion time. The length
of tunnel between 300 m long adit-1 & 300 m long adit-2 is 2.5 Km. The tunnel is
proposed to be lined with 225 mm thick plain M-20 concrete. The rock support treatment
shall consist of grouted rock bolts/anchors and shotcrete with or without wire mesh as per
geological conditions encountered. In rock class of IV & V steel ribs supports is
envisaged.
A vertical, restricted orifice type semi- underground surge shaft of 10 m finished dia and
about 40 m height has been proposed with its top opening into a platform at elevation EL
+1860 m. Surge shaft is proposed to be concrete lined with 0.75 m thick R.C.C. Its
bottom is kept at EL 1815 m at the HRT and surge shaft junction. The transient studies
shall be required to be done to work out the maximum and minimum levels for the worst
conditions and optimize the surge sha ft dimensions. During excavation, rock shall be
supported with grouted rock bolts/anchors with wire mesh as per geological conditions.

The discharge data for the 90% dependable hydrological year is given in table 7.3 and
power potential in 90% dependable year with 95% machine availability has also been
shown in this table. For carrying out the power potential and optimisation studies, the
following statistics have been computed.
65
Preliminary Feasibility Report
Lingza HE Project (3 x 40 MW)
Year:
Each 10-daily period of the year represents the average of the flow recorded for the
corresponding period of each year.
90% Dependable Year:
This is the lower decile of the series of the corresponding 10-daily period of the record
i.e. (N+1) x 0.9th year where N is the years for which continuous hydrological data are
available. The 90% dependable year comes out to be 1976-77 whose calculations are
shown in table 7.2.
7.3
Definition Of Terms
Annual Energy
This is the yearly energy provided during the 90% dependable hydrological year with
95% machine availability.
Firm Power
This is the power capacity, which can be guaranteed continuously during the lean period
in 90% dependable year. Here no reservoir capacity has been selected in order to have
minimum environmental impact. During lean inflow period (winter season) the firm
power comes out to be 15.50 MW calculations for this has been shown in table 7.3.
7.4
FULL RESERVOIR LEVEL (FRL) AND MINIMUM DRAW DOWN
LEVEL (MDDL)
FRL and MDDL have been fixed at EL 1850m & EL 1830 m respectively based on civil
consideration. Justification for FRL, MDDL and TWL has been presented in chapter VI
“Conceptual Planning and layout”. This project is envisaged as a run of the river scheme.
7.5
OPERATING HEAD AND HEAD LOSSES
The net operating head for turbines has been derived from the following formula where
head losses are taken as 10 m.
66
Preliminary Feasibility Report
Lingza HE Project (3 x 40 MW)
Net operating head =MDDL+2/3 (FRL-MDDL)-TCL-Head losses
The net operating head comes out to 736 m.
7.6
INSTALLED CAPACITY
Installed capacity of 120 MW has been selected based on power potential studies, water
availability and results arrived as per table 7.4(a).The studies for power output and annual
energy gener ation for the 90% dependable year restricted to various MW has been given
in table 7.4.
7.7
SIZE OF GENERATING UNITS
The power load demand in India is increasing at a very rapid rate and both hydroelectric
and thermal (including nuclear) Power potential in the country are being developed not
only to meet the overall requirements, but stimulatingly also to provide a proper mix of
hydro and thermal power for optimum operation of the system. Keeping this in view
current practice is to opt for largest size hydro units permissible within the parameters of
economy, operating efficiency, maintenance, optimum utilization of available water,
transport limitation etc. It is therefore proposed to install 3 units with capacity each of 40
MW with Pelton turbine as prime mover has been envisaged. However detailed
optimization studies for fixation of installed capacity would have to be done at FR/DPR
stage.
7.8
ENERGY GENERATION
The energy generation in the 90% dependable year (1976-77) indicating lean inflow
period and high inflow period is shown in table 7.5 (A). It may be seen from table 7.3
that the total unrestricted energy generation is 543.04 MU. Total energy restricted to 120
MW comes out to be 489.35MU. Annual energy generation at 120 MW (in 90%
dependable year and 95% machine availability) comes out to be 477.51 MU. Incremental
benefits have been shown in table 7.4a which comes out to be 1.79 for this year. Also
annual energy generation unrestricted has been indicated in table 7.7(A) to 7.7(U) for 21

POWER EVACUATION
8.1
GENERAL
This chapter contains data regarding existing Power network of the Eastern region and
the power evacuation arrangement required, consequent upon power generation at the
proposed Lingza Hydro Electric Project.
8.2
Appraisal of Existing Power Evacuation facilities
The nearest pooling point being proposed is a new 400/220 KV substation at Siliguri
(New Jalpaiguri) where power from Tala H.E.P and Teesta stages is expected to be
pooled. Adjoining to this is also a new substation of 220/132 KV level being created by
WBSEB. Hence power evacuation with respect to development of national grid and
consumption by the state can be considered as assured for the present project. Underlying
220/132 KV 200 MVA PGCIL and 132 KV network in the entire area is available to
cater for local loads.
8.3
Proposed evacuation arrangement to the nearest facility
After study of existing power evacuation facilities, it emerges that evacuation of power
generated at Lingza Hydro Electric Project can be done through one no. 220 kV double
circuit line to be connected at the pooling point which can be assumed to come up near (2
km from Teesta –III H E Project) Teesta III H.E.P. Teesta – III H.E.P. is situated in the
close vicinity of Lingza Hydro Electric Project. The length of this 220 kV double circuit
line would be approximately 15 km.

INTRODUCTION
9.1.1 General
The State of Sikkim has abundant snow and monsoon fed rivers with immense hydro
potential. The proposed run-of-the-river Lingza Hydroelectric Power Scheme involves
construction of diversion structures immediately downstream of Ringpi Power Station at
a riverbed elevation of about 1795 m on river Ringpi chu (fig. 9.1). Ringpi chu is a
tributary of Toulong chu which is a major right bank tributary of river Teesta. The water
from the diversion structure shall be conveyed to the powerhouse through a 4 km long
headrace tunnel situated on the bank of main Tolung chu. The riverbed elevation at the
tailrace shall be about 1095 m and would utilise a net head of 736 m. The proposed
project is envisaged to have generation capacity of about 120 MW.
9.1.2 Location
The proposed project is located on Ringpi Chhu in the North district of Sikkim between
longitude 88°27’20’’E & 88° 26’ 39’’ and latitude 27°36’00’’N & 27° 33’ 46’’, just u/s of
Panan reservoir. New Jalpaiguri is the nearest railhead and Bagdogra is the nearest
airport. The dam site is to be located near the Myong village under Lingza-Tolung
Revenue Block about 4.9 km upstream of the confluence of Rangyong Chhu and Ringpi
Chhu (Fig. 9.2).
9.2
PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT
9.2.1 Climate/Meteorology
For most of the period in the year, the climate is cold and humid. The region experiences
a cold winter from November to February and monsoons from May to mid- October. The
rainfall in the project area varies from 300-360 cm in most parts of valley. Snowfall is
seen at higher altitudes of the catchment area from November to April. The area enjoys
99
Preliminary Feasibility Report
Lingza HE Project (3 x 40 MW)
sub tropical to alpine conditions. Temperature varies with altitude and slope. Fog is a
common feature in the area especially from September to February.
9.2.2 Topography
Sikkim encompasses the Lesser Himalaya, Central Himalaya, and the Tethys Himalaya.
It is essentially a mountainous State without flat piece of land of any extent anywhere.
The mountains rise in elevation northward. The northern portion of the State is deeply cut
into steep escarpments. South Sikkim is lower, more open, and fairly well cultivated.
This configuration of the State is partly due to the direction of the main drainage, which
is towards the south. The trend of the mountain system is generally in east-west direction.
The Rangit and the Teesta, which form the main channels of drainage, run nearly north
south. The valleys cut by these rivers and their feeders are very deep and are rather open
towards the top, but usually attain a steep gorge like structure as they approach the bed of
the rivers.
9.2.3 Soils
The soil depth varies from 100- 150 cm deep in most areas. There are also certain rock
outcrops in the soil. The soil is mainly coarse to fine loam in texture. Some soils have a
gray tint of color and rich in humus in most places. The State of Sikkim enjoys a wide
range of climate, physiography, geology and vegetation which have further influenced
formation of different kinds of soils that are classified under 5 broad physiographic units.
Table 9.1 gives area wise details of these soils. The light textured soil and rocky areas are
prone to sliding. Topso il in most area is rich in humus and organic matter. The water
holding capacity in most area is low and has low cohesiveness. The soil in general is
loamy sand to silty clay loam with a depth of 30 cm to 100 cm and in some cases even
more than 120 cm.
Based on the soil survey conducted by the National Bureau of Soil Survey of India &
Landuse Planning, the State has been classified into 3 main soil groups:
100

9.2.4 Geology
The upper reaches of this region comprise of glaciers, snow clad peaks, alpine lakes,
moraine and meadows. There is a network of streams feeding the Ringpi Chu River with
many waterfalls. These streams are fast flowing glacier fed rivers originating from the
Great Himalayan Range and its offshoots. Ringpi chu river joins with Tolung chu to
make main stream of Tolung chu. The northern portion of the state is deeply cut into
steep escarpments.

Preliminary Feasibility Report
Lingza HE Project (3 x 40 MW)
The physical configuration of Sikkim is partly due to its geological structure. Major
portion of the State is covered by Precambrian rocks and is of much younger age. The
northern, eastern and western portions of the State are constituted of hard massive gneiss
rocks capable of resisting denudation. The rock type in this region belongs to Lesser and
Higher Himalayas, the former being represented by low grade meta-sedimentaries and
granite gneiss whereas the central crystalline in the axial zone of the north Sikkim are
represented by high grade meta-sedimentary and granite intrusive.
The main lithounits exposed in the area include Daling meta- volcano sedimentaries,
Lingtse sheared granite gneisses and high grade Central Crystallines. The Daling Group
of rocks comprises (schistose) metawacke, chlorite-muscovite phyllite intercalated with
chlorite, quartz and their metamorphic equivalents upto garnet-staurolite kyanite grade.
The metawacke units are highly sheared and are found to be associated with Lingtse
gneiss and meta porphyroid bands with bluish pa lescent quartz clasts.
The Central Crystalline Gneiss comprise of mica bearing quartz, feldspar gneiss, banded
gneiss. Migmatite gneiss, garnet bearing psammitic gneiss and higher grade kyanite
sillimannite garnet gneiss are found to crop out in the eastern part of the area. Apart from
these major litho units in the area there are metabasite bodies and some leucogranites
which show pegmatitic character at places. The metabasic rocks occur as concordant
bodies within the country rock. These bands are found to be of varying thickness and are
present both within the gneisses and the Daling meta-sedimentaries.
9.2.5 Seismicity
Sikkim is a part of active Himalayan belt, which is tectonically young. The area has
experienced mild tremors in the recent past. One earthquake of magnitude 6.0 on Richter
scale was recorded on November 20th, 1980. The project area falls in Zone IV of Seismic
Zoning Map of India as per IS 1893 - 1984.

Preliminary Feasibility Report
Lingza HE Project (3 x 40 MW)
9.2.6 Catchment Area
The direct draining catchment of the project is 198 sq. km. The catchment is mountainous
with rugged terrain. The tributaries are angular and have dendritic drainage patterns.
Streams have moderate to steep slopes in upper reaches. The natural vegetation consists
of shrubby to alpine in many places at upper reaches and mixed forest at lower
elevations.
9.2.7 River System
Ringpi Chhu rises as Jumthul Chhu from Jumthul Phuk glacier at the base of Siniolchu
peak (6,888 m). Along its eastward course, Jumthul Chhu is joined by Kishong Chhu on its
left bank to form Ringpi C hhu (Fig 9.3). Kishong Chhu rises in the northeastern part of the
catchment and drains Kishong Chho, a glacial lake and contributes significantly to Jumthul
Chhu. Thereafter, up to the proposed dam site Ringpi Chhu receives drainage mainly on its
left bank from a number of streams like Ludui Chhu, Pegor Chhu, Kongcha Chhu and
Zong Chhu. There are a number of small and big glacial lakes in the eastern part of the
catchments, which contribute to the main river through these streams. Ringpi Chhu
descends from an altitude of 4,000 m to 1,800 m within a distance of about 17.5 km with a
gradient of 128 m/km.
9.2.8 Submergence
The proposed project is likely to inundate a 10.75 ha of land, which is confined to the
river valley. The predominant landuse in the submergence area is degraded and open
forest and does not involve inundation of any village or human habitation. Thus no
displacement is anticipated.
9.2.9 Landuse pattern (including land requirement of the project)
The landuse/landcover pattern within the 7 km radius of the proposed Lingza H.E. project
was interpreted and generated from LISS-III scene of Path/Row 107/051 of 19th January,
2000 and PAN D scene of Path/Row 107/051 of 13th January, 2002. LISS and PAN
scenes of area covering 7 km radius of the project site are given in Figures 9.4 & 9.5. The
first level classified landuse/landcover map generated from these two scenes coupled
with ground truthing is given in Figure 9.6. Area covered by various landuse/lancover
103
Preliminary Feasibility Report
Lingza HE Project (3 x 40 MW)
categories is given in Table 9.2 and the percent representation of each of the
landuse/landcover type is shown in Figure 9.7. Based on the data generated from remote
sensing compiled with ground checks, it is clear that Dense Mixed Broadleaf forests
constitute about half (50%) of the total land area, therefore form the predominant landuse
around the proposed project site. The degraded types of forests, which are mostly scrub,
constitute 29% of the area covering about 56.62 ha of land. It is evident from the results
that the area is not significantly disturbed, as the area under human intervention around
the project vicinity (within 7 km radius) comprises only 2% of the cultivation/settlement
area. A sizeable portion of the area is under rocky land and cliffs comprising about 14%
of land area. In addition, some fragile moraines also comprise about 4% land area. Area
under snow is small constituting less than 1% land area. The analysis of the
landuse/landcover indicates that the area is mostly under natural ecosystems with only
limited human intervention. Natural landscape features also include areas under snow and
water bodies. The dense forests in the catchment are present towards north, northeast and
west. These forests are represented by Tolung Reserve Forest in the north and northeast,
Sakyong Reserve Forest in the west and southwest and Lingdem Reserve Forest in the
south and southeast. These forests are mostly broad- leaf forests with occasional
representation of local bamboo species in them, particularly in the warmer areas.

BIOTIC ENVIRONMENT
Sikkim stretches from the low lands in the south with tropical climate to the mountainous
regions in the north. The altitude varies right from sea level to mountain peaks covering a
wide spectrum of flora and fauna. Nowhere in the world in such a small area can one find
flora and fauna of all varieties - Tropical to the Alpines. Sikkim's botanical and
106
Preliminary Feasibility Report
Lingza HE Project (3 x 40 MW)
zoological richness is awe- inspiring, boasting of more than 4500 species of flowering
plants. 30% of all the birds in the country are found in Sikkim
.
9.3.1 Vegetation (details of forest types, etc.)
Its extreme altitudinal variation brings in tremendous change in climatic conditions that
in turn supports the biodiversity of different heights. With only 0.22% geographical area
of the country, Sikkim harbors 1/3 rd of the country’s flowering plants. There are 4500
species of flowering plants, 362 species of ferns and its allies, 11 species of oaks, 8
species of tree ferns, 448 species of orchids, 30 species of Primula and 20 species of
bamboos. Many medicinal plants/herbs/and important shrubs are found in low and high
altitude areas.
9.3.2 Flora
The dam site is located in warm temperate hilly terrain and the area of in the vicinity of
the project is mainly comprised of dense mixed fo rests. This area experiences warm and
humid summers and relatively cold winters. There is warm to cool humid climate
throughout the year with a short dry spell during winter months starting from October to
February. Owing to extended spell of humidity and cool to moderate temperatures at
these altitudes the vegetation is constituted mostly by the warm temperate deciduous and
evergreen plant species. In those areas where forests are present these are densely
vegetated by all the physiognomic forms – trees, shrubs and herbaceous flora. The woody
elements in these mixed forests comprises of Albizia lebbek, Alnus nepalensis, Annona
squamosa, Callicarpa arborea, Canarium bengalense, Erythrina arborescens, Ficus spp.,
Lithocarpus sp., Litsea sp., Macaranga denticulata, Rhus wallichii and Toona ciliata.
Shrubby bamboo and some other associates like Abroma anguistifolia, Artemisia
nilagirica, Boehmeria platyphyla , Girardiana diversifolia , Rhamnus virgatus and Rubus

9.3.3 Fauna and Wildlife
As the project site falls in the vicinity of dense forests a good presence of wildlife is
expected in and around the project site. The upper part of catchments of Ringpi Chhu and
Rangyong Chhu harbour several faunal species like Hoary-bellied squirrel (Callossciurus
pygerithrus), Orange-bellied squirrel (Dremomys lokhriah), Assamese macaque (Macaca
assamensis), Himalayan palm civet (Paguma larvata), Stone marten (Martes foina ) and
jackals (Canis aureus). These animals are generally found in the vicinity of agricultural
fields. In addition there are also species like Civets (Viverra zibetha), porcupines (Hystrix
brachyura), Grey musk shrew (Suncus murinus), the house mouse (Mus musculus) and
Bandicoot rat (Bandicota bengalensis). The upper reaches, i.e. the alpine areas of the
catchment harbour other mammalian species, which include Nayan, Bha ral, Snow
leopard, Himalaya brown bear, Himalayan tahr, Barking Deer, Himalayan marmot and
pikas. These animals however are rarely seen descending down to lower altitudes like
2,000 m. The avifaunal elements are comprised of bird groups like bulbuls, thrus hes,
eagles, partridges, pigeons, doves, koels, owls, kingfishers, nightjars, woodpeckers,
orioles, drongos, mynas, flycatchers, babblers, robins, etc. Among the reptiles Python
molurus, Naja naja and Dendrelaphis sp. are important species found in the vicinity of
project area.
Among the various faunal species present in the catchment Panthera pardus, Neofelis
nebulosa, Felis bengalensis, Macaca assemensis and Cervus duvaucelli are the
Scheduled as threatened animals of India while Panthera tigris, Selenarctos thibetanus
and Cervus duvaucelli are considered to be globally threatened species.
108
Preliminary Feasibility Report
Lingza HE Project (3 x 40 MW)
9.3.3 Aquatic life
The rivers in Sikkim harbour a variety of fish species. Ichthyofauna in the river
comprised mainly of Balm, Asala, Chepti, Gadela, etc. Snow trouts and other minor
trouts are found at higher elevations. Some of the identified fish species found in the area
are Schizothorax richardsonii, Salmo trutta fario, Labeo pangusia, Noemacheilus
kanjupkhulens, Bagarius bagarius, etc.
9.4.
Existence of any Protected Area/Archaeological Sites
The dam structure and the powerhouse lies within 7km boundary of the of
Kanchendozenga Biosphere reserve. However, there are no sites or monuments of
archaeological or national importance, which would be affected by the project activities
directly or indirectly.
9.5
PREDICTION OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS
9.5.1. Impacts on Land Environment
Sufficient amount of land will be required for construction of the proposed dam,
powerhouse, colonies & approach roads etc. About 10.75 ha of land would also
come under submergence. All these activities would mean some disturbance in
the soil and change in the landscape. There will be changes in the Landuse of
the area and in its physical composition.
9.5.2 Impacts on Water Environment
The construction of a reservoir replaces the river eco-system by a lacustrine ecosystem.
The vector of various diseases breeds in shallow areas not very far from reservoir
margins. The breeding site for mosquitoes and other vectors in impounded water is in
direct proportion to the length of the shoreline. The construction of the reservoir would
increase the shoreline many times as compared to the pre-project shoreline of various
rivers and tributaries under submergence.
Thus the construction of the proposed
reservoir may enhance the potential breeding sites for various disease vectors.
109
Preliminary Feasibility Report
Lingza HE Project (3 x 40 MW)
9.5.3 Impacts on Air Environment
The construction of the proposed dam would increase dust generation in the area and
some vehicular pollution. However, these would only be limited to the construction
period.
9.5.4 Impacts on Flora/Fauna
9.5.4.1 Impacts on terrestrial flora
About 10.75 ha of land will be inundated due to construction of the proposed dam. The
direct impact of construction activity of a water resources project in a hilly terrain is
generally limited to the vicinity of the construction sites. A large number of labourers
and technical staff and other groups of people are likely to aggregate in the area during
construction phase. In this area majority of forest dwelling rural community depends on
forest for food, fodder and timber. Submergence of forest area in primary impact zone
may reduce the availability of resources for the local people. This would also result in
significant changes at the structural resource level in forest. The acquisition of land for
various project activities would also lead to cutting of vegetation on these lands.
9.5.4.2
Impacts on terrestrial fauna
During the construction phase, a large number of machinery and construction labour will
have to be mobilized.
population.
This activity may cause some disturbance to the wildlife
The operation of various construction equipments is likely to generate
significant noise. Likewise blasting too is likely to generate noise level and vibration
intermittently. The noise may scare the fauna in the region and force them to migrate to
other areas. There might be some impacts due to increased human interference.
9.5.4.3
Impacts on avi-fauna
The construction of the proposed dam will lead to formation of a reservoir, which will
have a fluctuation in the water level, which precisely means the reservoir bank will
110
Preliminary Feasibility Report
Lingza HE Project (3 x 40 MW)
remain wet throughout the year. Due to such reasons grasses may grow along the
reservoir banks. Such conditions are generally ideal for various kinds of birds, especially
water birds. However, because of the presence of a good habitat, it is quite likely that
water birds will flock in this area in a large number. The birds from cold climatic areas
could also use this area during the winter season.
9.5.4.4
Impacts on aquatic ecology:
The major physical change upstream of the proposed dam will be formation of a
lacustrine habitat from a riverine habitat. Whereas below the damsite, there will be
regulated water or very little water in river course. As such there will be some changes in
the aquatic environment in this stretch. For this the water quality analysis shall be
conducted regularly. Moreover, some migratory fish species may get affected due to
construction of the dam.
Also some fish species, which are riverine and are not
accustomed to deep lake environment, may also get replaced.
9.5.5 Impacts on Socio-Economic Environment
Since the submergence area is small and is confined to the river valley, no village will be
submerged. Thus displacement is not anticipated. At present, there are small business
and little employment facilities in the project area. However, with the construction of the
project new business and employment opportunities will open up for the local people
which are likely to improve the economic conditions of the local people. Further, there
will be development of infrastructure facilities as housing, water supply, medical
facilities, schools, transportation and communications. These factors are expected to
bring about positive impact on the socio-economic status of the people living in the
project area. There is possibility of changes in lifestyle and cultural values of local
people due to migrant worker population. However, the impact is expected to be low as
the number of immigrant people will be small for the small project and most of the
labourers employed in the project will be local people.
111
Preliminary Feasibility Report
Lingza HE Project (3 x 40 MW)
As a part of the Environmental Impact Assessment Study, a detailed socio-economic
survey would be carried out to determine the following:
ü Information on various aspects of the affected population viz; demographic
details, socio -economic and cultural characteristics, enumeration of personal
properties of the affected population, education level and occupational profile etc.
ü Enumeration of social infrastructure and community property resources in the
submergence area.
ü Ethnographic assessment of PAFs.
9.6
ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLANS
The objective of the Environmental Management Plan (EMP) is to ameliorate the
negative impacts of a developmental project. The most reliable way to ensure proper
implementation of these management plans is to integrate the same with various

near the village Chhana . The state highway ha ving a length of 17km from Sanklan to
Lingza connects the power house by a foot path of 10 Km and dam site by a foot path of
5.0 Km. Since the Lingza H.E. Project is on u/s of the Panan H.E. Project, therefore it has
been presumed that all the roads and bridges shall be ready upto damsite of Panan H.E.
Project.
10.2.2 Construction Of Roads & Bridges
The power house shall be approached from Mangan - Lingza road from left bank for
which a new project road of 3.0 Km is to be constructed from the dam site of Panan H.E.

colony would have accommodation for all categories of officials deployed for the
construction. The strength of the officials and staff of various categories required for the
project has been worked out. Each personal would be provided with the accommodation
as per the entitlement. Keeping in view the construction period and subsequent operation
and maintenance of the project, it is proposed to construct about 50% of the buildings as
the permanent and the remaining as temporary. This conclusion has been drawn on the
basis that 50% of the staff strength would be required for maintenance and operation after
the co mpletion of the project.
Requirement of built up accommodation has been worked out to 3960Sq.m of permanent
built up area and 3970 Sq.m of temporary builtup area would be required. Total plinth
area for residential accommodation worked out to be 7930Sq.m,
10.2.4 Accommodation For Non-Residential Purposes
The office complexes are proposed at Lingza and Ishana. Workshops, laboratories, stores,
water supply, fire stations, electrical substations etc would be accommodated in the
project area.. One stockyard is proposed at railhead near new Jalpaiguri Railway station
where construction materials like cement, steel and machinery and equipments would be
store for further transportation to the project site, Batching and mixing plants are to be
commissioned, one near dam site and the other near power house site.
Accommodation required for non residential purposes have been worked out to be 7590
Sq.m of which about 40% would be permanent and rest will be temporary.
10.3
TELECOMMUNICATION FACILITIES
The differ ent work sites of the project, offices, stores, laboratories, workshop and

GEOLOGY OF THE AREA AROUND THE PROPOSED LINGZA
HEDROELECTIRIC PROJECT, TEESTA, BASIN, SIKKIM
INTRODUCTION
The Central Electricity Authority (CEA), as a part of an exercise estimate balance
hydroelectric potential in the county have identified 399 schemes with installed capacity
of about 1,50,000 MW in various river basins. The schemes thus identified were
subjected to ranking studies by applying different parameters. With result of ranking
studies, 162 schemes with probable installed capacity of 50,600 MW have been selected
to be taken up for preparation of Pre-Feasibility Reports (PFR’s) in first phase. The
schemes thus found feasible are proposed to be taken up for further development during
X and XI Five Year Plans. Out of 162 schemes selected to be taken up for preparation of
PFR’s in first phase, 10 are located in Teesta Basin in Sikkim.
The proposed Lingza Hydroelectric Project is one of the ten schemes that are
being taken up in first phase.
This run of river scheme envisages construction of
diversion dam/weir across Ringpi Chhu just down stream of powerhouse of Ringpi
Hydroelectric Project (27O 37’ 20” N: 88O 27’ 09” E; 78 0/6), a water conductor system
comprising 4 km long HRT and an underground powerhouse with probable installed
capacity of 160 MW located on left bank of Rangyong Chhu downstream of its
confluence with Ringpi Chhu and just north of proposed powerhouse of the Rangyong
Hydroelectric Project (27O 33’ 30” N: 88O 26’ 30” E, 78 0/6) upstream of Lingza.
REGIONAL GEOLOGY
The area around the proposed project is located in North Sikkim in Central
Crystalline axial region and is characterised by sharp crested snow bound mountains.
The ridges trend both in E-W and N-S directions. Teesta River, main draining agency of
Sikkim flows almost N-S in the area. The important tributaries of Teesta are Lach Chhu,
Toloung Chhu Chakung Chu, Ringpi Chu and their numerous tributaries. The valleys of
rivers are U-shaped and small streams have formed deep gorges. Vegetation is observed
up to EI . 3.900 m and many lakes are present at high altitudes.
The area around the proposed project has been mapped by Raina (1966)
Chakraborti and Banerjee (1982), Kumar et al (1984), Neogi et al (1984) and Neogi et al
(1986). The stratigraphic sequence established by the officers of GSI on the basis of
geological mapping is given below:

Augen gneiss
The area falls within axial belt of Central Crystalline Zone of the North Sikkim
Himalayas where the rock types are mainly high grade gneisses (CCGC) having
interbands of metasedimentaries represented by calc – silicate / quartzite, high grade
schists and their fine inter laminations. The metasedimentaries occur as enclaves in the
high-grade gneisses in the area around the proposed project. All these rock types are
often intruded by discordant tourmaline bearing quartz veins and pegmatite.
2
The higher grade gneisses belonging to the Central Crystalline Gneissic Complex
(CCGC) Group vary in composition from a gneiss in which feldspar is predominant with
respect to quartz to quartz biotite gneiss in which feldspar is almost absent (Chakraborti
& Banerjee, 1982 and Neogi et al, 1986) with frequent association of garnet, tourmaline
and sillimanite / kyanite depending up on bulk chemical composition. While the former
type is well foliated with streaks of biotite, the latter is compact and poorly foliated. The
different types of these gneisses occurring at different structural levels are banded gneiss,
augen gneiss and streaky gneiss. A gradual passage from one type to other type, both
vertically and laterally, is rather common. The banded type is characterized by alternate
bands of quartz feldspar and biotite. These bands are at places stretched giving rise to
augens which are composed predominantly of single grains of feldspar or occassionally
quartz or their aggregate. The latter may be the result of metamorphic differentiation.
The augens are both deformed or undeformed and are invariably warped around by
biotite flakes defining the gneissic – foliation. The augens are stretched in the direction of
regional schistosity. The high grade gneisses are often intruded by tourmaline granite at
places and are associated with interbands of calc silicate – quartzite and garnetiferous
biotite schist and various other schists belonging to Chungthang Group. These have
locally been mapped as Kanchendzonga Gneiss, Chungthang Gneiss and Darjeeling
Gneiss by various workers earlier. According to Neogi et al (1986), there exists a
complete gradation both laterally and in down dip direction amongst above mentioned
gneisses. Their repetition is due to normal morphological variation and unlinked with
folding and thrusting. Various structura/textural types of these gneisses stated above
have also been observed in all the so called gneissic groups of Central Crystalline axial
region and have been referred as “High Grade Gneisses” of Central Crystalline Belt
which are also comparable to Darjeeling Gneisses of Lesser Himalayas.
The metasedimentaries of the area belonging to the Chungthang Group are
represented by a sequence of lithounits varying from calcareous to arrnaceous and
argillaceous lithofacies. These comprise calc silicate rocks, quartzite, high grade
micaceous schists occasional amphibolites and their fine grained interlaminations.
3
Neogi et al (1986) have clubbed together calc silicate rocks and quartzites as these
invariably occur together. Prominent bands of these rocks have been observed near Be
and Myong, north of Talung gompa and near Phygn and south of Kishong. These have
NE-SW trend are locally folded. Calcareous bands are easily identified by their greenish
colour within banded calc silicate / quartzite assemblage.
Apart from carbonates and
quartz, stumpy diopside and needle shaped tremolite have also been observed in these.
Garnet is generally leached giving rise to ferruginous staining. The quartzite is sericite
quartzite. Thin laminations of biotite are observed in quartzite at places. The rocks are
occasionally boudinaged. Carbonaceous biotite schist is found associated with southern
west calc silicate / quartzite band. Tourmaline bearing silica veins and pegmatites have
been observed occasionally intruding these rock types.
Daling Series of Raina (1966) having two zones viz phyllite zone and schistose
zone has been mapped as low grade metamorphites of Daling Group by Kumar et al
(1984). Daling Group comprises quartz – chlorite – sericite schist phyllite, quartz –
sericite schist, quartz chlorite phyllite often associated with thin interbands of quartzite.
The low grade sedimentaries belonging to Daling Series from southern part of the area
structurally underlie the Lingtze Granite Gneiss. Near Gyathang and at some other
places, the frequency of presence of garnet is slightly higher and its grain size is
controlled by the original bulk composition of the rock. According to Kumar et al (1984)
these metasedimentaries typically resemble the Gorubathan Formation of Daling Group
and hence been named “low Grade Daling” .
The granite gneiss which crops out near north of Senkhalang with an E-W trend
and northerly dips is also observed NW of Kendong and north of Karsang to form the
western limb of major antiformal closure. It occupies a unique position between lowgrade and high-grade metasedimentaries and is conformable to both. This granite is a
well foliated, coarse grained, sheared streaky biotite gneiss and occasionally contains
garnets. At places, augens of quartz and felspar stretched parallel to the foliation plane
are recorded within this unit.
Tourmaline and biotite bearing granites are the younger granites having
discordant relationship with high-grade
gneisses and high-grade metasedimentaries.
4
Compositionally, these are mainly quartz-feldspar rich leucogranite varying from coarse
grained to fine grained aplitic variety and shows disseminated flakes of biotite.
Tourmaline grains are observed generally in structural highs.
Gondwanas, according to Raina (1966) include grits, pebble cum boulder beds
and carbonaceous shales with ocassional coal seams. Pebble cum boulder bed forms the
marker horizon for Gondwana. Arkosic sandstone (felspathic grit) forms the other main
rock type. It is light yellow to dark grey coloured and is infolded within pebble beds.
STRUCTURE AND TECTONICS
The area exposes a sequence of gneissic rocks and associated metasedimentary
rocks of Central Crystalline Belt of North Sikkim and the structural fabric elements
observed pertain to features in the area predominated by high grade litho-facies which
have undergone polyphase deformation and metamorphism.
The primary structures
include compositional banding. The gneisses show lithological banding which can be
attributed to metamorphic differentiation. Bedded characters are observed only in calc
silicate – quartzite multilayers. The high-grade schists also show compositional banding
of alternate quartz rich and calc silicate rich bands. There is no evidence however to
indicate that these bandings are relict of primary sedimentary banding. However, broad
parallelism of the bandings and later imposed pervasive planes, S2, indicates that these
could be transposed.
The secondary structures include planar surfaces like gneisses foliation,
schistosity which include bedding schistosity (S1), regional schistosity (S2) and fracture
cleavage (S3). Bed Gneissic foliation forms the most prominent fabric element of high
grade metamorphic tectonics. These ‘S’ surfaces are marked by parallel lithological
layering and preferred dimensional orientation of minerals. The gneissic foliation in the
area generally trends NE-SW with moderate NW dips.
The metasedimentaries associated with the gneisses show a pervasive schistosity
where lithological layering is absent. The fabric is defined by preferred orientation of
tabular mica crystals.
Bedding schistosity (S1) is incipient and is parallel to the
5
compositional banding in metasedimentaries. This ‘S’ surface could not be related to any
tectonic structure in the area and could be described as another inherited fabric element
along with bedding. The regional schistosity (S2) is most pervasive structural element in
metasedimentaries. The axial plane schistosity is symmetrically oriented with respect to
axial planes of folds (F1). The trend of regional schistosity is parallel to the gneissic
foliation. The fracture cleavage (S3) is defined by discrete parallel fractures and are also
axial plane cleavages related to F2 crenulation. Due to varying styles of the F2 folds the
orientation of the S3 surfaces varies with respect to regional schistosity ‘S2’. The linear
structurs include striping lineation, pucker axis lineation and mineral lineation.
The area comprises a sequence of high-grade metasedimentaries and gneisses that
show evidence of having undergone polyphase deformation with complex pattern of folds
due to repeated super-imposition of successive fold forms.
Grouping of different
generations of folds on the basis of styles and spatial attitudes has not been possible due
to their complex forms.
Broadly three generations of fold movement could be
deciphered. F1 folds, the earliest recognizable folds have compositional banding and
bedding schistosity as their form surface and are of tight isoclinal reclined to inclined
folds. Their style and spatial orientation as observed in the area is comparable to these
observed in Daling Group of rocks exposed south of present area. The F2 folds have
involved all the above mentioned surfaces. These show a variety of styles ranging from
appressed isoclinal folds to open warps, small-scale chevron folds or multi-hinged
disharmonic folds. The calc silicate / marble quartzite bands show regional warps along
NW-SE axis due to this phase of folding. The effects of F3 folds have been observed
mainly on regional scale. On macro scale they are of the nature of minor broad warps
that have folded the weakly developed S3 planes. No planar surface related to this phase
of folding are apparent. F3 warps are only locally developed in high-grade
metasedimentaries and have N-S oriented axis.
Zones of intense mylonitisation have been observed in the gneisses but there is no
basis to conclude that these could represent planes of thrusting on the basis of evidence
like distinct truncation of lithounits reorientation of major folds (F2), development of
small scale faults etc.. Chakraborty and Banerjee (1982) have marked NNW-SSE
trending thrust near Manual and NW-SE trending thrust near Naga. Neogi et al (1984)
6
observed minor slips and faults occurring commonly within gneisses and
metasedimentaries along S3 planes near hinge zone of F2 folds. The slips are more
common where folds are tight. A meso scale normal vertical fault trending N-S has been
found with in low grade metasedimentaries about 2 km north of Brang village.
Silicification, chloritization and mylonitization are found along this fault plane.
SEISMOTECTONICS AND SEISMICITY
Seismotectonically the area under reference is located in Axial Belt of Central
Crystalline Zones of North Sikkim. According to Narula at al (2000) the northern part of
the area is occupied by poorly metamorphosed sequence (Tethyan) folded during
Himalayan Orogeny. Similar tectonic pockets representing Gondwana sequence crop out
within Rangit Window as well as lenticular tectonic wedge along the Main Boundary
Thrust (MBT). The northern Tethyan Belt is followed successively to the south by highgrade complex of Central Crystallines and low-grade complex of Lesser Himalayan rock
worked during Himalayan Orogeny.
The latter packet is exposed within tectonic
windows as well as linear belt between Main Central Thrust (MCT) and MBT. South of
MBT the foot hill region is occupied by sequence of frontal belt affected by the terminal
phase of the Himalayan Orogeny. Adjacent Peninsular tract is covered by Quaternary
alluvial fill along the foredeep.
In the southwestern part, Peninsular element is
represented by small inliers of gneissic complex and Rajmahal Trap. The basement
gneissic complex, representing a part of Shillong massif along with marine transgressive
cover are present in south eastern part. Like other parts of Himalayas, this area is the high
grade Central Crystallines from comparatively lower grade Lesser Himalayan packages
which are separated from the Siwalik Belt by MBT. At places, particularly towards east,
several subsidiary thrust are presented between MCT and MBT. Besides these, several
approximately N-S trending gravity faults are present particularly within northern
Tethyan Belt and the southern foot hill belt. Within northern Tethyan Belt these N-S
faults define some well knows graben structures, viz. Pum Qu Graben and Yadong Gulu
Graben. In the former, the faults affecting the Quaternary glacial deposits are clearly
7
evident. The latter graben is considered to be longest one in Tibetan Plateau and is
segmented into several N-S smaller grabens. The foredeep tract east of Munger –
Saharsha Ridge is known as Purnia Basin where Gondwana sequence has developed over
the rifted basement. The structural configuration of this foredeep region is architectured
by a set of almost N-S trending faults resulting in development of alternate horst and
graben structures. The westernmost is the Munger – Saharsha Ridge which alternates
towards east by Purnia Basin. The western and eastern boundaries of Purnia Basin are
defined by the Munger - Saharsha Ridge Morginal Fault (MSRF) and Malda Kishanganj
Fault (MKF). The former fault known as Sainthia – Brahmani Fault further south, along
which cluster of earthquakes have been recorded by the Geological Survey of India, has
been found seismically active. Further east the prominent tectonic feature is the Rangpur
Ridge bound by MKF and Jangipur – Goribandha Fault, Teesta Fault and Katihar –
Nailphamari Fault. Several subsidiary faults, parallel to Teesta Fault forming grabens are
reported from ridge.
Gondwana sequence is found to have developed within these
grabens. Along with transverse faults, several lineaments cutting across the Himalayan
belt are also present.
These exhibit NE and NW trends. The NE trending Azun
Lineament considered to be trace of northern extension of East Patna Fault,
Kanchanjunga Lineament and NW-SE trending Teesta and Purnia lineaments are other
prominent transverse lineaments. The basement contours corroborate the presence of
Purnia Saddle and Rangpur Ridge.
Most of the earthquakes in this area are shallow focus (<40 km) earthquakes and
have magnitude range of 4.5 to 5 .5 in general. Considering the spatial distribution of
seismic activity the region can be broadly divided into three blocks. The Central Main
Himalayan block with considerable seismicity separates the northern Tethyan Block and
southern Foredeep Block with subdued seismicity. Of the 51 seismic events recorded in
the region over a period of 58 years between 1935 and 1993, five had magnitude more
than 5.5 i.e. ranging between 5.5 and 6.0 and rest 46 had magnitude between 4.5 and 5.5
and 8 events with depth of focus >40 km. The depth of focus for one event, that of
21.05.1935, has been interpreted to be 140 km. As such observed seismic events are
mostly concentrated in Main Himalayan Belt. Keeping in view the seismotectonic set up
and seismicity, the area has been kept in Zone – IV as per Map of India Showing Seismic
Zones (IS - 1893 (part –I) : 2002).

GEOTECHNICAL APPRAISAL
The proposed Lingza Hydroelectric Project is located downstream of Ringpi
Hydroelectric Project. As per geological map, the area around the proposed diversion
structure exposes Banded Gneisses with augen gneisses and quartzite and biotite gneisses
belonging of Central Crystalline Gneissic Complex. The rocks are well foliated and
jointed. Keeping in view the general topography of the area It is suggested that type of
structure and its final site be selected after assessing the thickness of overburden the
riverbed and on the abutment and availability of bed rock for locating intake structure for
the water conductor system. The water conductor system comprising 4 km long HRT is
aligned on the left bank of Rinpgi Chhu. The rocks expected to be encountered in the
proposed HRT include banded gneisses with augen gneiss belonging to CCGC in initial
and final reaches and calc silicate / marble and quartzite / biotite quartzite schist
belonging to Chungthan Group of metasediments along with augen gneisses of CCGC in
middle reaches. The rocks of CCGC and Chungthang Group are interbanded. These are
well foliated and jointed.
One suspected thrust fault between rocks of CCGC and
Chungthang Group may be encountered in downstream reaches.
The tunneling
conditions are likely to be good to fair in general excepted in the influence zone of the
thrust or where local faults and shear / mylonitised zones are encountered where poor
conditions can be expected. Similarly water ingress along with poor conditions can be
expected in calc silicate / marble rock is these are cavernous and water charged. The
powerhouse with probable installed capacity is proposed as an underground structure on
the left bank of Rangoyong Chhu upstream of Lingza. The rocks exposed around the site
of proposed structure are banded and augen gneisses and quartz – biotite gneisses of
CCGC. These are expected to provide fair tunneling media and supports be designed
accordingly. However, presence of local poor rock zones can not be ruled out. The
proposed project is located in Zone IV as per Map of India Showing Seismic Zones (IS –
1893 (part-I) : 2002).
Therefore, required seismic coefficient will have to be
incorporated in the designs of appurtenant structures of the project. This preliminary
geotechnical appraisal is without field visit to site.

TECHNICAL REPORT ON SEISMIC HISTORY AND SEISMICITY OF THE
TEESTA BASIN OF SIKXKIM COVERING PROPOSED SITES FOR
HYDROELECTRIC SCHEMES
Historical and instrumentally recorded data on earthquakes show that the whole area of
the proposed sites for hydroelectric schemes at Dikchu, Rongni Storage, Panan,
Namlum, Zedang, Teesta St-I, Ringpi, Lingza, Rukel and Rangyong in Sikkim lies in a
region liable to damage due to moderate to great earthquakes. Noteworthy earthquakes
which affected the region in the past are (i) the Cachar earthquake of 10.01.1869
(Magnitude= 7.5 on Richter scale), (ii) the Shillong plateau earthquake of 12.06.1897
(Magnitude= 8.7), (iii) the Dhubri earthquake of 02.07.1930 (Magnitude= 7.1), (iv) the
Bihar-Nepal Border earthquake of 15.01.1934 (Magnitude= 8.3), (v) the Assam
earthquake of 15.08.1950 (Magnitude= 8.5) and (vi) the Nepal-India Border earthquake
of 21.08.1988 (Magnitude= 6.4). The 1897 earthquake had its epicentral tract in and
around Shillong where there was considerable damage to lives and property, in addition
to other effects of very strong ground shaking. One of the significant observations made
on this earthquake was that boulders were thrown out vertically upwards from their
original places showing that the force of earthquake motion exceeded the force due to
gravity, at least momentarily. The earthquake was followed by a large number of
aftershocks.
In addition to the above significant earthquakes, the region has experienced
several earthquakes of lesser intensity originating within a radius of 450 km around
Shillong and neighbouring regions. A list of important earthquakes from I.M.D.
catalogue occurred in the region bounded by Lat. 25.00 to 30.00°N and Long. 86.00 to
91.00°E for the period 1505 to 2001 is enclosed.
The occurrence of earthquakes in Sikkim region is broadly associated with the
tectonic activity along the well-known faults in the Himalayas such as the Main
Boundary Thrust (MBT) and the Main Central Thrust (MCT). Besides, earthquakes
occurring along some other faults namely Malda-Kishanganj Fault, Tista Fault, PurniaEverest Lineament, Katihar-Nailphamani Fault, Dhubri Fault etc. have also affected the
region.
In the seismic zoning map of India prepared by a committee of experts under the
auspices of Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS: 1893: Part I 2002), the entire area of
Sikkim has been placed in the zone IV. The seismic zone IV is broadly associated with
a seismic intensity VIII on Modified Mercalli (MM) scale. It may be mentioned that the
seismic intensity VIII corresponds to a horizontal ground acceleration range of 51350cm/sec2 or an average acceleration of 172cm/sec2 in any direction. The ground
acceleration and hence the intensity of an earthquake at a place depends on magnitude
of earthquake, distance from the focus, duration of earthquake, type of underlying soil
and its damping characteristics and liquefaction potential. The damage to the buildings
1
founded on sandy soil is higher than that in the similar type of buildings having their
foundation on hard bedrock. Also, the damage will be higher for higher magnitude and
long duration earthquakes, less epicentral distance soft soil conditions and area with
high liquefaction potential.
Presently, there is no scientific technique available anywhere in the world to predict
occurrence of earthquakes with reasonable degree of accuracy with regard to space,
time and magnitude. It is, therefore suggested that appropriate steps may be taken to
ensure that the dwellings and other structures in the region are designed and constructed
as per guidelines laid down by Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) to minimize the losses
caused by earthquakes. Suitable seismic design parameters may be adopted as per
recommendations of National Committee on Seismic Design Parameters (NCSDP)
for designing and engineering Hydroelectric Projects.

PRELIMINARY RANKING STUDY REPORT- BY CEA
Lingza Hydro Electric Scheme (Org. No. HEPR-PS-BHM-784):
The Ringpi appear to permit another run-of-the-river type hydro electric
scheme utilizing the river waters available downstream of Ringpi power
house for power generation. The scheme would involve construction of a
diversion structure immediately downstream of the power house under
Ringpi hydro electric scheme at a site where the river bed level is +1795 m.,
a tunnel about 4 Km. long for carrying the waters to a power house to be
located on the main Talung Chhu river at a site where the river bed level is
1055 m. The power house would operate under a gross head of 740 MW.
and have an optimum generating capacity of about 160 MW enabling firm
power generation of about 20 MW. The scheme would enable annual energy
of 715 GWH and 780 GWH respectively in 90% and 50% dependable years.
