&lt;em&gt;The decision by the National Green Tribunal is likely to lead to more comprehensive impact assessment studies for other hydropower projects proposed in the Brahmaputra basin&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Hopes have resurfaced on saving the nesting grounds of endangered black-necked cranes in the northeastern Indian state of Arunachal Pradesh after the National Green Tribunal in April suspended the environmental clearance given to the proposed 780 MW hydropower project in Tawang district. The decision also indicates that other hydropower projects proposed in the sensitive region&amp;ndash; part of the transboundary Brahmaputra river basin which straddles China, India and Bangladesh &amp;ndash;might have to carry out cumulative impact assessment studies.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As many as 13 large hydropower projects with a total installed capacity of 2,900 MW have been proposed in Tawang district in western Arunachal Pradesh. The district has two main rivers, the Tawang Chhu and the Naymjang Chhu that together have 10 main tributaries. These two rivers meet each other before exiting the district in a southwesterly direction.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The barrage for the 780 MW Naymjang Chhu hydropower project is proposed to be located near Zemithang village in Pangchen valley, about 90 kilometres northwest of Tawang district headquarters. It is near the international border, with Bhutan to the west and the Tibet Autonomous Region of China to the north. The location of the barrage coincides with the nesting site of the endangered black-necked cranes. The tribunal was critical of the fact that the environmental clearance made no mention that the project will have an adverse impact on the habitat of the black-necked crane.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These birds migrate from Tibet during the winter and lay eggs on the riverbed. They are classified as vulnerable in the list of endangered species of the International Union for Conservation of Nature and figure in India&amp;rsquo;s schedule I list under the Wildlife (Protection) Act of India of 1972.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
According to the World Wide Fund for Nature, which runs a conservation project in the area, the Pangchen valley is one of the few places in India that is a wintering habitat for the black-necked crane. These birds, a flagship species in the Himalayan high-altitude wetlands, are found only in Bhutan, India and China. Already affected by climate change &amp;ndash; their nesting habitats require river levels to be stable and low during the winter &amp;ndash; such disturbance to their habitat would have heavy consequences.&lt;br /&gt;

The decision also indicates that other hydropower projects proposed in the sensitive region&amp;ndash; part of the transboundary Brahmaputra river basin which straddles China, India and Bangladesh &amp;ndash;might have to carry out cumulative impact assessment studies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As many as 13 large hydropower projects with a total installed capacity of 2,900 MW have been proposed in Tawang district in western Arunachal Pradesh. The district has two main rivers, the Tawang Chhu and the Naymjang Chhu that together have 10 main tributaries. These two rivers meet each other before exiting the district in a southwesterly direction.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The barrage for the 780 MW Naymjang Chhu hydropower project is proposed to be located near Zemithang village in Pangchen valley, about 90 kilometres northwest of Tawang district headquarters. It is near the international border, with Bhutan to the west and the Tibet Autonomous Region of China to the north. The location of the barrage coincides with the nesting site of the endangered black-necked cranes. The tribunal was critical of the fact that the environmental clearance made no mention that the project will have an adverse impact on the habitat of the black-necked crane.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These birds migrate from Tibet during the winter and lay eggs on the riverbed. They are classified as vulnerable in the list of endangered species of the International Union for Conservation of Nature and figure in India&amp;rsquo;s schedule I list under the Wildlife (Protection) Act of India of 1972.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to the World Wide Fund for Nature, which runs a conservation project in the area, the Pangchen valley is one of the few places in India that is a wintering habitat for the black-necked crane. These birds, a flagship species in the Himalayan high-altitude wetlands, are found only in Bhutan, India and China. Already affected by climate change &amp;ndash; their nesting habitats require river levels to be stable and low during the winter &amp;ndash; such disturbance to their habitat would have heavy consequences.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.thethirdpole.net/2016/05/09/arunachal-hydropower-project-halted-to-save-black-necked-cranes/&quot; title=&quot;https://www.thethirdpole.net/2016/05/09/arunachal-hydropower-project-halted-to-save-black-necked-cranes/&quot;&gt;click here&lt;/a&gt; to read more.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&#039;

&lt;em&gt;The decision by the National Green Tribunal is likely to lead to more comprehensive impact assessment studies for other hydropower projects proposed in the Brahmaputra basin&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Hopes have resurfaced on saving the nesting grounds of endangered black-necked cranes in the northeastern Indian state of Arunachal Pradesh after the National Green Tribunal in April suspended the environmental clearance given to the proposed 780 MW hydropower project in Tawang district. The decision also indicates that other hydropower projects proposed in the sensitive region&amp;ndash; part of the transboundary Brahmaputra river basin which straddles China, India and Bangladesh &amp;ndash;might have to carry out cumulative impact assessment studies.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As many as 13 large hydropower projects with a total installed capacity of 2,900 MW have been proposed in Tawang district in western Arunachal Pradesh. The district has two main rivers, the Tawang Chhu and the Naymjang Chhu that together have 10 main tributaries. These two rivers meet each other before exiting the district in a southwesterly direction.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The barrage for the 780 MW Naymjang Chhu hydropower project is proposed to be located near Zemithang village in Pangchen valley, about 90 kilometres northwest of Tawang district headquarters. It is near the international border, with Bhutan to the west and the Tibet Autonomous Region of China to the north. The location of the barrage coincides with the nesting site of the endangered black-necked cranes. The tribunal was critical of the fact that the environmental clearance made no mention that the project will have an adverse impact on the habitat of the black-necked crane.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These birds migrate from Tibet during the winter and lay eggs on the riverbed. They are classified as vulnerable in the list of endangered species of the International Union for Conservation of Nature and figure in India&amp;rsquo;s schedule I list under the Wildlife (Protection) Act of India of 1972.&lt;br /&gt;

<em>The decision by the National Green Tribunal is likely to lead to more comprehensive impact assessment studies for other hydropower projects proposed in the Brahmaputra basin<br />

Hopes have resurfaced on saving the nesting grounds of endangered black-necked cranes in the northeastern Indian state of Arunachal Pradesh after the National Green Tribunal in April suspended the environmental clearance given to the proposed 780 MW hydropower project in Tawang district.

Arunachal hydropower project halted to save black-necked cranes -Nivedita Khandekar
