Part of the deforestation is blamed one
the provide-spread use of wood for fuel.
In many area alternative energy sources
are either not available or relative more
costly. Electrical power availability is
very limited. In many area where it is
available from the national grid,
rationing supply schedules are applied.
Another problem is thata number of
relatively new power generation plants
government’s interest in developing
cascade hydropower schemes, such as
the Baluchaung River, The Baluchaung
No.3 HPP is the third and downstream
stage of a cascade development of
three hydropower projects on
Baluchaung River.

Project Profile
➢ The purpose of Environment Impact ➢ According to hydrological condition the

Assessent (EIA) is to provide discharge in the Baluchaung river at the
information contributes to decision- intake of the Baluchaung Hydropower
making process of Baluchaung No(3) Project may exceed the capacity of
Power station. 39.4m3/s.
➢ Since1971, Mobye Reservoir has been

regulaing the Baluchaung River to be
as constant as possible for a stable
power generation throughout year.The
regulated flow by Mobye Reservoir.
Natural Environment
GEOLOGY
➢ The project area is characterized by S0 345m long,limestone
two different lithologies; limestone and plateau for calibration
phyilites.
S1 Cancelled close to PHBLC-
➢ In geotechnical terms, the limestones 2
are haed massive rocks prone to S2 590m, Gully 1
karstification. Impure argillaceous
limestone is less affected than the pure S3 350m penstock slope
cavernous variety. Phyllitic shales tend
to develop deep topical weathering. S3-1,S3-2,S3-3 Transversal profiles
penstock slope, along
➢ It is concluded that overall geology of contour line
the project area is only poorly known.
Whereas the foundation conditions of S4 150m, slope below T6
surface civil structures can be easily
determined by subsoil investigations, S4-1,4-2 Cancelled, quarry
large uncertains will remain along the
S-5 300m, adit 2, slope of T9
headrace tunnel regarding rock
conditions.
Vegetation Distribution Characteristics
The vegetation distribution at the upstream

drainage area and downstream drainage
area are affected by the distribution of
mountains.
According to the relavant the field

exploratory survey, the vegetation type in
project area not only have the
characteristics of tropical monsoon broad
leaved evergreen forest and vegetation
presents more evergreen forest and
vegetation presents more characteristics of
tropical monsoon forest near the site.
The Baluchaung waterfall
Species of Orchids
Conclusion
❖ People in the drainage of the Baluchaung CHAPTER 4
river and Nam Pawn river have the fishing
technique and the fishing tradition here is
very long.
❖ The fishing needs hooks or the iron beds,
the absorbing barrels and the like are to be CHAPTER 3
used for fishing if there are no fishing
tackles.
❖ With the development of society, the current
fishing tackles are the single layer gill net,
CHAPTER 2
the double layer gill net, the trial net, the
casting net the layer square net, the
dragging net or sinking hook, ect.
❖ The fishing is performed on the bamboo
rafts and the wooden boats. CHAPTER 1
❖ The fishing season is the food season in
which water rises, the debris flow is serious,
the water flow is rushing.
