slide2. Background Dugar HEP is proposed on Chenab River to harness the hydropower potential of river Chenab.
The project proponent is NHPC Ltd. (formerly known as National Hydroelectric Power Corporation) was incorporated on 7th November 1975 as Central Govt. Enterprise for development of Hydro Power in Central Sector.
The construction of the dam and underground powerhouse for the Dugar HEP (500 MW) is proposed near Luj village in Pangi Tehsil of Chamba district of Himachal Pradesh.
This project was previously allotted to M/s Dugar Hydro Power Ltd. (A Joint Venture of Tata Power & Statkraft). However, the project allotment to M/s DHPL was cancelled by the Government of Himachal Pradesh on 23.09.2017 and the same was allotted to NHPC Ltd.
Government of Himachal Pradesh (GoHP) has signed Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with NHPC Limited on 25th September 2019 for the implementation of Dugar HEP on Build Own Operate & Transfer Basis (BOOT) for a period of 70 years including DPR and pre construction periods.<br>
slide3. Location Dugar HEP is located in Chenab River in district Chamba, Himachal Pradesh. The construction of the dam and underground powerhouse for the Dugar HEP (500 MW) is proposed near Luj village in Pangi Tehsil of Chamba district of Himachal Pradesh.<br>
slide4. Project Description Dugar HEP envisages the construction of a 128m high dam from the deepest foundation level.
The reservoir storage is 61.58 MCM at Full Reservoir Level EL. 2114m and the live storage capacity is 16.57 MCM.
The powerhouse will accommodate four units of 103 MW each for the main plant and two units of 44 MW each for the auxiliary plant (4 x 103 MW + 2 x 44 MW).
To tap the environmental flow during lean season and non-lean non-monsoon season recommended by Expert Appraisal Committee (EAC) for River Valley and Hydroelectric Projects during appraisal of “Cumulative Environmental Impact Assessment study of Chenab basin in Himachal Pradesh”, two units of 44 MW each are also housed in the powerhouse main cavern.<br>

slide9. Land Requirement The total land requirement for Dugar HEP is estimated as 220.62 ha out of which, 8.78 ha is private land, and the remaining 211.84 ha is forest land.<br>
slide10. Land Requirement The total land requirement for Dugar HEP is estimated as 220.62 ha out of which, 8.78 ha is private land, and the remaining 211.84 ha is forest land.<br>
slide11. As the proposed project envisages hydroelectric power generation, therefore, it gets covered in the Schedule of EIA Notification, 2006 at item 1(c), Category ‘A’ i.e. >100 MW installed capacity.
The project was discussed by the Expert Appraisal Committee (EAC) in its 33rd meeting held on 24/06/2020 where scoping clearance was recommended. Scoping clearance letter was issued by MoEF&CC vide letter no. J-12011/08/2020-IA-I dated 5th August 2020 for 449 MW installed capacity.
Subsequently, due to enhancement of installed capacity after updating Water availability series, scoping clearance was revised for Installed capacity of 500 MW for which letter was issued by MoEF&CC vide letter no. J-12011/08/2020-IA-I dated February 08, 2021. SCOPING CLEARANCE<br>
