Environmental Impact Assessment in Sustainable Water Resources Development: Major Issues of Consideration

摘要: The sustainable development of water resources is a multi-dimensional way thinking about the connections or interdependencies among natural, social, and economic systems in use water. purpose environmental impact assessment to guarantee that harmony with human welfare conservation ecosystems hence it should be clearly understood by all concerned. main this paper review current level understanding development; assess major challenges from perspectives, identify issues need considered planning development. During project study design, impacts identified made available for decision makers public. In arena Integrated Water Resources Management, environment as one legitimate users water, allotted reasonable amount its sustainability. Hence, flows mandatory condition granting permission construction. Besides, catastrophic flood events resulting dam breaches are enormous, performing breach wave propagation inundation mapping during design phase would support timely on fate identifying mitigating measures taken. instances shortage geographic data, remotely sensed data can analysed GIS generate map information. Simulation models, coupled GIS, add layers provide clarity impacts. To bring integrity development, like population pressure, climate change, lack proper integration, policies institutional arrangements properly addressed.
