After detailed discussions with the State govt., TPA (IIT-Roorkee), Executive

Committee (EC) resolved to approve the proposal for according administrative

approval and expenditure sanction (AA&ES) for Interception, Diversion (I&D) and

Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) works for Abatement of Pollution of River Damodar at

Phusro town (Jharkhand) under Namami Gange Program at an estimated amount of

Rs 61.05 Crores (including cost of O & M– Rs 28.41 Crores for 15 years) to be

implemented on DBOT mode. GST as applicable is to be paid extra. It was also resolved

that the observations of NMCG, TPA should be complied by the State Government/


Page 2 of 12

Executing Agency at the time of finalization of bid document/ at the time of execution

and during O & M period. O & M of the project assets, post-commissioning for 15 years

has been included in the project scope. O & M beyond project scope i.e. after 15 years

shall be the responsibility of State Government/ ULB at its own cost. SPMG confirmed

that after implementing this project, no untreated drains will fall in the river

Damodar from the town.

It was also decided that state government will pari-pasu implement the project for

utilization of treated wastewater from the project for irrigation, industrial purpose as

per its policy.

EC decided that installation of trash arresting rack and its regular O&M at the mouth

of all drains and adequate provision for co-treatment of septage in the STP facility

may also be made part of project proposal for implementation.

In addition, it was also directed by EC that the latest effluent standard as per the NGT

order shall be followed.

The project has been considered to be funded under Component B – New Initiatives of

Namami Gange Program. The State Government should ensure the availability of land,

wherever needed, in their possession before awarding the works. State need to submit

a revised DPR, before bidding, based on Third Party Agency’s recommendations

complete with detailed designs and hydraulic analysis.

The project involves implementation of I&D and STP works of significantly small

capacity (15 MLD) and clubbing of this work may be difficult with other towns due to

fact that some big towns with new sewerage infrastructure works to be undertaken

are not located nearby. Accordingly, EC decided that the project will be executed

following DBOT mode instead of Hybrid annuity based PPP mode.EC also directed to

SPMG that the tender works may be awarded within three months from the date of

issue of AA&ES.

Agenda Item No. 30.2- Expansion of Project “Involvement of Youth in

Namami Gange Programme” to 26 new Districts and extension in existing 29 Districts

A presentation was given by Ms. Manisha Saini, Assistant Director, NYKS before the

Executive Committee on the achievements of the ongoing project in 29 districts and on

the proposal for expansion of similar work in 26 more districts across Uttarakhand,

Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Jharkhand and West Bengal.

The Executive Committee pointed out that out of the total NMCG sanction of Rs. 9.90 Crore

for the first phase of 29 districts; Rs. 4 Cr has been released by NMCG. Furthermore, the EC

highlighted that NYKS has submitted a utilization certificate of only Rs. 65 Lakh and the

remaining funds remain unutilized. The EC asked NYKS to share the execution plan for the

remaining sanctioned amount to facilitate further release of funds. NYKS informed the EC that it

will submit the UC for Rs. 1.1 cr. shortly. Moreover, the delay in the implementation of the

project is due to pandemic outbreak, hence, the funds could not be utilized in sync with

the timelines at regional level for training programs.

DECISION

The EC took note that senior officials are not present during the meeting. It also

observed that the extension to another 26 districts is on lines similar to that of

existing 29 districts and hence agreed to accord administrative approval and

expenditure sanction. However, it was directed that NYKS should submit action

plan for expeditious utilisation of funds already released. A detailed review would

be scheduled after one week.

Agenda Item No. 30.3- Revised Administrative Approval & Expenditure

Bhagalpur, Bihar

The revised project for Interception & Diversion and STP Scheme for Bhagalpur was

approved in 29th Executive Committee Meeting held on 28.08.2020 vide Agenda

No.29.13 at a cost of Rs.340.25 Crore (Capital Cost Rs.192.62 Crore and 15 yrs. O&M cost

Rs.134.58 Crore). The project is 100% funded under EAP scheme from World Bank. It

was also decided to send the TPA report to World Bank for their consideration. In the

event of the bid project cost for Bhagalpur STP project becoming higher than the revised

sanction separate approval will be sought as per guidelines.

In response to the tender invited for the subject project, two bidders namely (i) Triveni

Engineering & Industries Ltd. and (ii) Consortium of Adani Enterprises Ltd. and Organica

Technológiák Zrt. have participated. The Consortium of Adani Enterprises Ltd. and

Page 9 of 12

Completion Time: 24 Months

Financial Effect: Central Share as 100% of project cost i.e. Rs. 78.42 crore

Project Status: Bidding Process- Design Build Operate Transfer (DBOT) basis

The proposal of I&D and STP works of Kairana Town, Dist., Shamli, Uttar Pradesh was

placed before Executive Committee (EC) for according the approval for an estimated cost

of Rs. 78.42 crore. Drain from Kairana town outfalls into Mamour Lake and due to

continuous discharge of sewage from this drain, the lake overflows and submerges the

nearby agriculture fields. Beside submergence of agriculture fields by sewage, the water

quality of lake is also severely deteriorated. The lake is an ox-bow lake of river Yamuna

and one of the largest ox-bow lake in Yamuna river bed and requires pollution abatement

works on priority.

DECISION

After detailed discussion Executive Committee (EC) resolved to approve the proposal

for according Administrative Approval and Expenditure Sanction (AA&ES) for

Interception & Diversion (I&D) and STP works of Kairana Town, Dist., Shamli, Uttar

Pradesh with O&M for 15 years under Namami Gange Program for an estimated

amount of Rs78.42 Crores (including cost of O & M for 15 years –Rs 38.51 Crores).

It was also resolved that the observations of NMCG, TPA should be complied by the

State Government/ Executing Agency at the time of finalization of bid document/ at

the time of execution and during O&M. The cost towards O&M of the project assets,

post commissioning for 15 years has been included in the project scope. O&M beyond

project scope i.e. after 15 years shall be the responsibility of State Government/ ULB

at its own cost. It is also proposed that as the Central Government is giving funding

for O&M of the sewerage assets for 15 years, the tax should be collected regularly as

usual by ULB and kept in a corpus fund, which should be used by ULB for O&M of all

these assets after 15 years exclusively. The project has been considered to be funded

under NGP Component – New Initiatives of Namami Gange Program. The State

Government should ensure the availability of land in their possession before

awarding the works. State has to initiate the land procurement procedure for MPS &

STP and same has to be completed at the earliest. State need to submit a revised DPR,

before bidding, incorporating Third Party Agency’s recommendations. EC also

instructed to SPMG, UP that the tender works may be awarded within six months

from the date of issue of AA&ES. EC also recommended the project duration of 24

months excluding the bidding period.

In addition, EC decided that installation of trash arresting rack and its regular O&M

at the mouth of all drains and adequate provision for handling septage in the SPS /

STP facility may also be made part of project proposal for implementation. EC desired


Page 10 of 12

that State Government should explore the possibility of reuse of treated wastewater.

Additional pumps if required may be included in TEPS to avoid the spread of water

beyond the lakes boundary.

Further, EC decided that works for Rejuvenation of Mamour Lake by carrying works

for proper demarcation of lake, Strengthening / raising of bunds,dredging / desilting

of Lake and plantation on boundary of Mamour Lakemay also be executed pari-passu

as a part of project proposal through District / Local Administration using State’s

own resources / MGNREGA funding etc as discussed with district authorities during

site visit.

Agenda Item No. 30.9 (Table Agenda)- In-Situ Treatment of untapped drains

identified in the 09 stretches of Uttarakhand by Bio- remediation technologies at

an estimated cost of Rs. 3.89 Cr. under Namami Gange Programme.

Kumbh 2021 will be held at Haridwar Uttarakhand and it is proposed that none of

the drain carrying sewage should discharge the sewage in Uttarakhand state in rivers

before treatment. NMCG has made pollution abatement interventions for all the drains on

main river Ganga by creating I&D structures and STPs but tributaries drains are yet to be

tapped. In Uttarakhand, 24 small drains on 09 tributaries rivers (River Kichha, Dhela,

Bhela, Kosi, Pilakhar, Nandhor,Rispana, Bindal and Suswa) are yet to be tapped

permanently for pollution abatement works and thus bioremediation of the same was

proposed. Out 24 drains, 19 drains are in 06 tributaries of Kumaon region (Udham Singh

Nagar) which are discharging about 30 MLD sewage in Ramganga basin and 5 drains are

in 03 tributaries of Garhwal region (Dehradun) in Rispana, Bindal and Suswa river. The

pollution abatement project for creation of I&D in Rispana and Bindal rivers has just

started and will take about a year to complete. Till then, considering upcoming Kumbh

Mela 2021, bioremediation of all these drains have been proposed for a limited period of

06 months. The objective of the project is to reduce the pollution level in these tributaries

rivers by bioremediation. This will ensure that all the drains having sewage pollution in

Uttarakhand state will have pollution abatement interventions. The targets are to reduce

BOD by 70%-80%, bring TSS and BOD to regulatory norms in these identified drains in 09

polluted stretches during Kumbh period. The payment will be linked to performance of

the bioremediation process and to achieve pre-defined removal targets.

DECISION

After detailed discussions, EC suggested that though bioremediation is an interim

mechanism for controlling pollution in the drains and rivers, such works are

required to be taken for the drains/ rivers in Uttarakhand considering upcoming

Kumbh Mela. EC recommended that this project may be made a part of

comprehensive Kumbh project wherein a proposal for providing financial assistance


Page 11 of 12

under Namami Gange Programme to state for Kumbh 2021 is under consideration of

NMCG.

Agenda Item No. 30.10 (Table Agenda)- Treatment of Kosi Drain, Vrindavan using

in-Situ Bioremediation Technology

Drain Name- Kosi Drain, Vrindavan

Project Cost: - Rs. 1.39 Cr (One crore, thirty Nine Lakhs)

Project Duration: - 1 Year (First month will be trial period which can be extended up to

three months if necessary. After successful demonstration, project will continue for

additional 11 months (excluding trial period) and payment will be reimbursement on

monthly basis towards quantity of flow measured and treated in drain against per

MLD cost of Rs.1925 adjusted on pro-rata basis.

Financial Effect: 100% Central Sector

Scope of work-

The project would be monitored as per the monitoring protocols,

BOD reduction

Mitigated foul smell reduced H2S and CH4 emission level.

E Coli reduction.

Net Result: Cleaner drain and lower pollution into Yamuna

Decrease in Fecal Coli-form level

Foul Odour Reduction.

Scavenging and cleaning of drain area by ensuring the garbage, floating matter, debris

and vegetation shall be cleaned manually from the river and transport for dumping at

designated solid waste disposal site. The cleaning of accumulated solid waste shall be

carried out periodically by the project proponent.

Monitoring of flows in the drain at designated monitoring location by installation of

suitable flow measuring device viz. V-notch or scientific flow measurement methods

(excluding float method) etc. in consultation with the designated authorities.

Public awareness programme will also be planned to carry out to educate the local

residents to avoid throwing the garbage in to the drain.

After detailed discussions, EC approved the proposal for according AA & ES for

“Treatment of Kosi Drain, Vrindavan” using bioremediation under the head of

“Research Studies, Pilot and Training, Workshop, Seminar, Publication etc. as a

part of overall Research & Development Component” for an estimated amount

of 1.39 Cr (One crore, thirty Nine Lakhs) at a treatment cost of Rs.1925/MLD.

The project has been considered to be funded under National Ganga Plan (NGP).

Above approval is subjected to following conditions-

1. A Technical Monitoring Committee may be constituted for monitoring of the project.


Page 12 of 12

2. Monitoring of the project shall be carried out as per the monitoring protocols, which

shall be devised on the basis of field measurements after establishing the base line

profile in respect of flows in drain, drain water quality and other issues.

3. The agency will also monitor flow in the drain by installing a flow measuring device

like V notch/ flumes or scientific flow measurement methods (excluding float method)

etc.

Agenda Item No. 30.11(Table Agenda)-: Treatment of Palam Drain, Delhi using in-

Situ Bioremediation Technology.

It was learnt in the meeting that Palam Drain has been partially tapped and the flow is

diverted for treatment at pappankalan STP. Sanctioning the proposal would be a case of

double treatment. Hence, after detailed discussions, EC decided that any other drain

may be selected by the agency in consultation with NMCG for putting up the pilot

proposal.

Agenda Item No. 30.12(Table Agenda)-: Project: Proposal for pilot demonstration by

start-up "NEER Treatment Solutions Pvt. Ltd." for removal of solid waste from ITO

drain, Delhi

The proposal was taken up for discussion in EC meeting as table agenda with consent of DG. It

was discussed that the pilot project proposal is submitted by NEER Treatment Solutions Pvt.

Ltd. for removal of solid waste from ITO drain, Delhi (near WHO headquarters). The start-up

company proposed putting up a solid waste collection mechanical set-up in the drain. It would

have minimum human intervention. The Capital Costs of the project is Rs.17,12,290

(Seventeen Lakh Twelve thousand two hundred and ninety only) and Operation Cost is

Monthly Rs. 82,180/- (Annual Rs. 9,86,160).

ED (F) observed that the solid waste management is mandate of Ministry of Housing and

Urban Affairs. The proponent unit however replied to the observations that the project is

important for NMCG as well since the solid waste from drains ultimately reaches the rivers and

solid waste in rivers out falling into Ganga and its tributaries had been cause of concern for

NMCG also.

After detailed discussion, the EC decided that proper disposal of solid waste collected

from the drain should also be ensured. It is necessary to bring the concerned

Municipality on board for better coordination and efficient solid waste disposal. The EC

in principle approved the proposal subject to the condition that concerned MCD has to

agree to own-up the project during implementation. EC directed that proposal may be

resubmitted before EC after taking actions, as above.

The meeting ended with thanks to the chair.
