INTRODUCTION 1.1 The Nile Basin May 2007 Having a length of 6.825 km., the Nile River takes the rank of number one with respect to length, in tne world It drains a total drainage area of 2.96 M.Krrf, with its annual total flow of about 84 Bm As one could appreciate, the discharge per Km 3 2 is small when compared J to other large rivers of the world. From the Lake Victoria, to the Mediterranean Sea, the river crosses very many different areas associated with different climate relief ano geology The main sources of the river are the equatorial lake plateau and the Ethiopian Highlands. The three major tributaries which emanate from the Ethiopian Highlands are. from south to the north, the Baro Akobo, the Blue Nile, familiarly known as AODay and the Tekeze -Atbara System. 1.2 Abbay Basin The ADbay Basin is one of the most important basims, in Ethiopia It accounts for about 17.5% of Ethiopian land area, 25% of its population and 50% of its annual average surface water resources. In the Lake Tana, it has the country’s largest fresh water lake, covering an extent of 3000 kmz The Aobay nas an average annual run off of about 50 B m The rivers of Abbay contribute on an average 62% of Nile over flows in Aswan dam. The climate of the Abbay Basin is dominated by two features, namely, it's near equatorial location and in altitude range between 590 m.amsl. to 4000 m. amsl. These influences result in rich variety of local climates, ranging from not/desert like along the Sudan border to the temperate type on the high plateau with depiction of cold in the high mountains The Basin can g enerally be d escribed a s t emperate a t h igher e levation a nd tropical a t lower elevations However due to the distinctive aspects of the mghiand climate, it is perhaps better to describe it using the local climatic zones, that have bean established witn elevation (and resultant temperature) as controlling factors. The Qolla zone lies below 1800 meters and has annual temperature range from 20°C to 28°C The Woma Dega zone lies between 1800 meters and 2400 maters and has annual average temperature ranging from 16°C to 20°C The Dega zone, above 2400 meters has average annual temperature ranging from 1O°C to 16°C The major portion of the population inhabit in the more climatically pleasant ano nealthier upper two zones, whicn leaves the lower Qolla zone sparsely populated. Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise I In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.ArjoDedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects May 2007 There are mainly 3 rainy seasons The main one (kiremt) lasts generally from June to September, during which, the south west winas bring rains from the Atlantic Ocean. About 70% to even up to 90% of the rainfall occurs during this season. This season obviously is associated with minimum levels of sunshine, low variations in daily temperature and high relative humidity A dry season (Bega) lasts from October to January, during wnich clear skies are associated with maximum sunshine hours, high daily temperature vanation and low relative humidity F inally the minor rainy season (Belg) lasts from February to May, during which south east winds bring the small rains from the Indian Ocean. The temperature range is very high in this season The precise timing and duration of these seasons vary considerably depending upon location within Abbay Basin, and to some lesser extent, year to year as well Generally speaking, the low altitude depicts the pattern of 11 5 to even 12.5 nours of sunshine and temperature varying only for a small range from 3°C to 7°C through out the year The mean annual rainfall over the entire basin could be reckoned at 1400 millimeters, where as the mean evapotranspiration is aDout 1 300 millimeter. Broadly, based on the rainfall pattern, 4 different areas have been identified by the earlier Master Plan study (Abbay River Basin Integrated Master Plan Project - BCEOM in association with BRGM. ad ISL consulting Engineers - 1998). These are i) Southern area covering East ano West Wellega, Jimma and lllubabor Zones with relatively hign rainfall (1400-2200 millimeters) and a iong wet season. ii) A central area covering most of Western Gojam ano Darts of neignooring zones as well, charactenzed by relatively high rainfall (1400 - 2200 millimeters). But there is a more pronounced seasonal pattern associated with short wet and longer dry seasons iii) An area covering most of the eastern part of the basin including North ano South Wello, Eastern part of East Gojam and South Gondar and much of North and North West Snewa region, excluding small proportion of mountain areas. This area is characterized by relatively low rainfall (less than 1200 millimeter) distributed in both the rainy seasons, depicting bimodality. Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd. 2Arjo Deaessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects May 2007 iv) The West and North West area covenng North Gondar region. The rainfall is about 1200 millimeters, falling predominantly, in the mam rainy season associated with high average rates of evapotranspiration. With respect to the hydrographic scenario, the Basin is dominated by Abbay River which rises in the center of the catchment and develops its course in a clock wise spinal. It collects tributaries all along its 992 km journey up to Sudan border. As said earlier, the Abbay Basin catchment area of 199,812 km2 is encompassing the break up as below: As Gilgel AbDay the main river flows north from its source near Sekela into the wide and shallow Lane Tana The take also receives other tributaries from a catchment of 15,054 km2 including tributaries Megech, Ribb and Gumara. Shortly after leaving the lake, the river reaches the celebrated Tis Abbay falls, thereafter flowing in a deep and rugged gorge on its way to Sudan Border The break-up of Abay oasin catchment area is available in Table 1 1 1.3 The Dedessa Catchments The Dedessa River is the largest tributary of the Abbay in terms of the volume of water contribution to the total flow of Abbay at the Sudan border Draining nearly an area of 34,000 square kilo meters, the Dedessa over o nginates in the Mt.Vennio and Mt.Wache ranges, flowing in an easteny direction for about 75 kilo meters, then turning rather sharply to the north until it reaches the AbDay River The major tributaries of the Dedessa river are the Wama, entering from the east, the Dabana from the west, and the Angar from the east. Dedessa Catchment is situated in tne south-west part of Abbay Basin. The catchment area at a gauging station near Arjo town is 9,981 Km The climate of the Dedessa Catchment results from its location and elevation (1220 to 3012 meters; The catchment is characterized by mountainous, highly rugged and dissected topography with deep slopes The iowest part of the catchment is characterized by valley floor with flat to gentle slopes Most of the rainfall in the Dedessa Catchment is concentrated in the June to SeptemDer period with virtual drought from November througn February Annual totals, average from less than 150 centimeters to more than 200 centimeters. The Dedessa catchment, besides reflecting a marked rainfall increase with higher elevation, also receives heavier annual quantities than most or the catchments in the Abbay basin Examination of the rainfall records from this area shows that this is due to a longer (May through OctoDer) rainy season rather than heavier maximum monthly quantities 2 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd. 3R R R ■I Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects The mean annual flow of Dedessa nver at Arjo station is about 3,800 million m naving its maximum flow in August and September (52 percent of the annual) and minimum flow in February and March (less than 1.5 percent of the annual). Further vivid descnption of the climatic factors, rainfall and hydrological parameters are made in the ensuing respective sections of this report Table 1.1: Break up of Abbay Basin Area May 2007 3 System Tributary Joining Catchment From Area (Km ) 2 Lake Tana — 15,054 North Gojam Right side Beshilo Weieka Jemma Left side tf M South Gojam Rignt side Muger Guder Fincha Deaessa Angar Wonoera Dabus Beles Dinder Rahad Left side M * M M Right side Left side Right side — — Total 14,389 13,242 6,415 15,782 16,762 8,188 7,011 4,089 19,630 7,901 12,957 21.032 14,200 14,891 8.269 199,812 >1 il d d d Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd. 4Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects May 2007 2. REVIEW OF PREVIOUS STUDIES Because of the importance of the Abbay, very many studies had been carried out in the past, concerning the basin. Though, there was not any specific study for the development of Dedessa suo basin exclusively, all the studies under taken, pertaining to Abbay or the country as a whole, spoke of Dedessa development. Hence thougn such a review has to be more exhaustive, it is necessary to undertake such a review before attempting Dedessa sub basin development especially the aspects connected with hydrology in this sectoral study. Such a review is presented in the following sub paragraphs 2.1 Lahmayer 1962 Study This was mainly concerned with Gilgel Abbay Scneme Although, it was not having adequate data base, the study provided interesting information about Gilgel Abbay and its tributaries, which could be considered as a data base for review ano up dating in the light of the raw data 2.2 Land and Water Resources of the Blue Nile Basin Ethiopia The study was under taxen by the United States Department of the Interior Bureau of Reclamation during 1958 - 1964 This detailed study on land and water resources development of the Abbay Dasin is wortn mentioning important study Even at a time, when there was a little or no data, very exhaustive analysis of the available data had been carried out to establish nyoroiogicai studies In fact, the pioneering works undertaken during that time, has made ADbay basin in Ethiopia, to be proud of a possessing a good net work of hydrometric stations for making reliaDle estimates. The hydrological aspects nave been covered in Appendix III of the report. In 4 different sections of this Appendix, the various facets of hydroiogical analysis nave been put forth as below: • Section I: A general cescnption on climate, availability of water, sedimentation rates and possible irrigation requirements. • Section II’ A presentation of the status of historical stream flow and their elaborations. • Section III. A presentation on flood flows and the analysis attempted • Section IV: A presentation on water use 5 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects May 2007 In the Section I. on giving an account of the synoptic and climatic situations, the 22 stations with long data have been analyzed for precipitation and temperature The basin isotherm and precipitation maps have been prepared based on above analysis. The water availability aspects have been also addressed in this Section I The samples analyzed at 5 stations indicated a low sodium hazard; most of them showed low to medium salinity hazard, some samples contained from none to a maximum of 0.2 ppm of Boron, which was found to be tolerable by most sensitive crops. The samples showing highest salinity were from Mugger and Dinder. With respect to sedimentation, ratings were established at 4 stations and based on extrapolation; the sediment rate was computed at all the identified potential dam sites. The pattern of sediment distribution in reservoirs, expected after 50 years of useful life was adopted uniformly in a water balance type of simulation, for establishing the success of each of the identified projects. In tne section, 3 regions have been identified for development with respective crop projections, cropping calendar and crop water requirement. The water requirements varied from 782 millimeters in Gilgel Abbay to 1375 millimeters in Dinder area The section II has addressed the stream flow development for locations of the identified dam sites by possible best set ot analysis available at tne time In the study period 59 gauging stations were established, including 14 stations with automatic stage records By the various analysis including grapnicai rainfall runoff correlations, the flow series were built up at all dam locations and at salient locations The annual mean flows at Sudan border was estimated at 50 Bm3. For the Deoessa at Arjo, the correlated flows were established for 8 years (1911 to 1917 and 1932j. The mean annual flow estimate was 4332.82 Mm3 (catchment area 9486 Square kilo meters) For the Dabana at Abasina, the mean annual flow was established at 1757.26 Mm3 (catcnment area 3080 Square Kilometers) For the Angar near Nekemte, the flow estimate at annual mean level was 2523.33 Mm3 (Catcnment area 4350 square Kilometersj 6 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.Ar Jo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects May 2007 3 For the proposed Deaessa dam, with a catchment area of 3360 square kilo meters, the flow was estimated to be 1533 75 Mm Similarly, for the dam site at Dabana. with a catchment area of 2654 kilo meters, the annual flow at mean level was estimated at 1515 63 Mm3 For the Angar, 2 dam sites had been identified one at a location with a catchment area of 1780 square kilo m eters (AG-2 D am) a nd a nother a 11 ocation with a c atchment a rea o f 4 523 s quare k iIo meters (AG-6 Dam). The mean annual flows estimated respectively at these two locations were, 983 125 and 2251 26 Mm3 The section ill, addresses the causative factors of floods in Abbay The design rainfall for the basin was estimated Daseo on 6 representative station s data. These are presented below, which are forming a qata base, worth for review and up dating for adoption. 1 day design rainfall = 87 Midi meters 2 day design rainfall = 126 " 5 day design rainfall = 185 “ 10 day design rainfall = 251 “ 15 day desigr rainfall = 321 “ 3 The design flood was estimated by physical approach using unit hyorograpn, storm analysis and design flood nydrograpn convolution for 21 dam sites F or the others, flood frequency analysis based statistical return period floods were estimated For the Deoessa DD-2 reservoir, the PMF was computed as 5390 m3/sec with a base period of 99 hours. For the Dabana storage reservoir, the PMF estimate was at 4860 m /sec with a Dase penod of 91 hours. For the Angar-2 reservoir with a catchment area of 1780 square Kilometers the PMF ano the duration of the nydrograph were 3970 m /sec and 80 hours respectively For the Angar-6 reservoir, the above respective figures were 6180 m /sec and 111 hours. For the Dedessa storage dam, the 5 10 25, 50,100, year floods were estimated to be 1700, 1900. 2100, 2300 and 2400 m /sec respectively These formed a good data base for review in the present study 3 3 3 7 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.Arjt> Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects May_2Qo^__ The section IV, as indicated in the beginning deals with the water use studies. The 1960 water use status was reviewed along with such water uses in villages. Then, the run off estimates have been adopted considering the envisaged irngation and power developments in respective simulation study. Due to Dedessa dam USBR study, estimated a reduction of about 139 M mJ in Dedessa flows to the Abbay . On the whole, this USBR study is a useful one for the basin as a whole, though with paucity of data, because of its systematic treatment of hydrological and simulation aspects. 2.3 Country wide Master Plan studies - EVDSA/WAPCOS (1988-90) These studies were carried out during 1988-90 for country wide water and land resources development, covering all nver basins. These were primarily desK studies for identifying potential irrigation and hydropower sites based on country wide data collection and analysis, coupled with detailed map studies. The study was addressing the Abbay basin also, along with other basins. The USBR studies were reviewed in detail for the Abbay basin, and subsequently this study came out with modifications in the USBR sites in some cases and proposed many other sites as well. Though desk study, the data base available to this study, on nydrological and hydro meteorological aspects were fairly adequate because of the earlier pioneering works by USBR in establishing a good net work of such data observation stations. In this study, the rainfall as well as run off data for the vicinity of the identified projects were collected ano analyzed even though elaborate consistency checks were not under taken. The data gaps filling and extrapolation of data have been done using statistical regression analysis, using mostly oi-variate linear as well non linear correlations. In certain major dams, synthetic data generation by single site multi season stochastic models as well has been under taken With respect to floods, the flood frequency analysis of the annual maximum flood series has been earned out for the observation stations, in the vicinity of all identified potential dam sites The EV1 distribution with the method of maximum likelihood fitting has been followed in the above flood frequency analysis. On deciding the appropriate design criteria for the inflow design flood for each identified dam site, the flood peaks of the nearest gauging station have been transferred to the dam site by empirical formula. For deriving the shape of the complete design inflow hydrograph at the dam site the procedure as indicated below has been followed. 8 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects May 2007 For the nearest gauging station, the observed maximum flood hydrograph were isolated For these a relationship between time and Q/QP ratio were established (t against Q/QP) where t represents time Q represents the discharge aft’ and QP is the peak discharge Using this pattern of relationship the cam site hydrograph has been developed using the peak as estimated by flood frequency analysis. Simulation studies have been systematically carried out to judge the success of a scheme at cntena based reliability levels. Climatic data otner than rainfall have also been documented, though without detailed processing or elaborations. The sediment rates as quoted by various previous studies of different Dasins have been adopted and used in simulation studies, considering life expectancy of projects as 50 years. The data base on the geometry of identified studies could be considered to be only approximate, as were based on purely topographic maps. The hydroiogicai and hydro meteorological data were also not put into rigorous analysis, which is called for design of identified projects. However, this study aiong with USBR study back up gave a very good data base/ inventory of all possible exploitable cam sites in Abbay Dasin. This EVDSA/WAPCOS study has cameo out such exercise in all the other river basins of the country as well The dams identified in the Dedessa sub basin by this study is the Arjo Dedessa irrigation project. This proposal envisaged a dam, a chute spillway, an irrigation outlet with in take structure and a canal taking off on the nght side. The project envisaged irrigation over 139.00C nectares with 160% irrigation intensity The inflow in a 75% reliaDle year was estimated to oe 776.80 Mm3 The 10,000 year flood with a peak of 890 cubic meters per second was getting moderated to an out flow hydrograph of peak of 642 cubic meters per second The dead storage was fixed as 93 Mm , on the basis of annual rate of around 1.9 Mm 3 3 2.4 Study by BCEOM - in association with ISL and BRG 1999 The study entitled "Abbay River Basin integrated development Master Plan Project” has Deen carried out with the following water resources onented objectives. 9 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt. Ltd.Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrol ogical Aspects May 2007 • Preparation of the nver basin development m aster pla n that will guid e the development of the resources of the basin potentially wit h respect to occurrence, distribution, quality and quantity of water resources for the coming 30 to 50 years • To prepare water allocation and utilization plans under alternative development scenarios and to generate data, information and knowledge that will contribute to the future water allocation negotiations with downstream countries The hydrological and hydro meteorological studies are more relevant for review in this section These aspects have been covered in Section II, volume ill of the Master Plan Study report. The Dasic climatic features and the climatological data of the Abbay river basin are discussed first. The rainfall data procured by the study was for 173 stations; the data length varied from 3 to 40 years, with associated monthly gaps. The data for other climatic factors were availaDle for 108 stations. The field verification of these stations and equipments has also been under taken The data is said to nave been subjected to analysis and some errors connected with observations or processing were laentified. The study has perhaps not attemDted to improve the quality of sucn data on the plea that it was outside the consultant's capacity or responsibility As such, tne data base after screening and omitting such erroneous data is stated to be good. With respect to Hydrology in the part 2 of the aoove volume III, the following aspects nave been covered systematically. • Basic Hydrograpmc Features • The Hydrometric net work • Review of orevious studies • Data collection ana Analysis • Sectoral methodology In the basic hydrographic aspects, a good work of preparing a map of the basin has been presented dividing the basin in to reasonably homogeneous areas, named Basin Units', representing each of the catchment of one tributary or of several minor ones., with similar behaviors. With respect to the hydrometric net work, it has been considered to be adequate as 10 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects May 2007 per WMO norms, taking in to consideration 116 effective stations. The list of station, tneir locations, and drainage areas controlled have been well documented in T ables, appendices and maps The master plan has found that the spatial distribution of the stations is not even or equitable The parts of Besnilo, Weleka and Jemma were not adequately represented Based on visit to all accessible observation stations the master plan could identify. • In many cases those stations which have been abandoned are not worth reconstruction either they had not been installed at optimal locations or the catchment area controlled by them was too small • The numbers of automatic water level recorders still operational at the study time were low though most of the stations had been equipped with such recorders at the time of tneir installations • In many gauges stations the cables of bank operated cable way were missing • On tne other hand most staff gauges were in good condition and water level data was considered to De quite reasonable. There upon recommendations have been spelt out to be executed as and when budget, equipment and man power are made available. In the first observation, it is felt that what is meant as optimum could have been indicated As far as hydroiogicai net works are concerned, optimality vanes depending upon the purpose of the net work. It could De a general purpose net work or could be a specific purpose net work. It is not clear that what is the master plan ascribed optimality. Further, since because a gauging station controls a small catcnment, it seems they have been ignored by the master plan study. Measurement of discnarges have a multipurpose oriented utilities like, ascertaining the sensitive or non sensitive areas, flood rate estimation or for a specific purpose including community based water harvesting schemes etc. Hence, the approach of ignoring stations with small catcnments does not seem to be Dased on analysis of vivid concepts. Subsequently, the Master Plan has made a very brief review of hydroiogicai aspects of previous studies. Again it is felt that a Master Plan of the magnitude could have reviewed in a __________________________________________________ ______________________________________________ 11 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects May 2007 more elaoorate manner. The review could have brought out each aspect of hydrological and hydro meteorological and simulation studies attemptea by the earlier studies Only, such detailed review would hare formed the datum to appreciate the further studies taken up by the Master Plan. Next, the data collection and analysis part is discussed in the report. The data sets processed were mean daily levels, discharge measurements and suspended sediment concentration data. With respect to data processing, the major study carried out seems to oe review and reestablishing rating curves. The details on very many hydrological analysis, which should have been carried out before final use of he data in basin simulation are not finding a place in the hydrology volume (not explicitly described). With respect to rating curve analysis, detailed exploration of the discharge data of 121 stations have been made and equation of the form. Q = a (H-H )° o have been fitted, wmch is common practice in Hydrology It is a good thing that Master Plan has used both analytical ana graphical methods in parallel in establishing such rating curves For all the stations analyzed, a total of 253 equations have been arrived with good correlation coefficients of 0.90 and above in 90% of the pairs of data. The discnarges have been estimated using these equations. Then Master Plan study states that on checking homogeneity, the monthly values wee extracted it would have been better to appreciate if the nomenclature of Homogeneity with justifications had been indicated in the report. It is also stated further in the Master Plan that the discharges were compared witn earlier studies ana the results did not nave major variations. Again it is felt that better appreciation could have been made, if the concept of major variation had been spelt out. 12 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological AspectsMay_2007^_^ Subsequently, water Balance model of the basin has been formulated taking only representative s tations so a s t o m ake t he m odel c omprehensive without o ver loading T he selection criteria used for identification and inclusion of hydrometric stations in the model seem to be appropriate. The input hydrological discharges were established on daily time resolution level for the period of 33 years (1960-1992). The gap filling techniques seem to have in built subjective inferences. With respect to assessment of water availability, a map has been prepareo on a scale of 1 1000. 000 to estimate the global water availability to be applied to all potential water resources development sites in Abbay basin. This map couid De of use just for a preliminary estimate of annual flows at pre-feasibility level The water availability has Deen further estimated by aetailed water balance model. In this in the first run, tne present scenario has been in built and for 18 net work stations, and water availability has Deen estimated. The salient findings of this run are as Deiow which are in order. • The annual average volume flowing across the border from Abbay River is 50.30 Bm3 • Adoui 83% of tne average annual volume at border is flowing in 4 months (July - October), while tne 4 montns from FeDruary to May account for less than 4% of the mean annual flow • The average annual flow at the out let from Tana represents aDoui 7% of the above annual flows at border. Floods: The highest flood nydrographs recorded at each of the water balance net work stations have Deen put to analyses to establish the relation Detween time and Q/Qm ratios. Then flood frequency analysis of the annual maximum discharges has been carried out by Gumbei's EV1 distribution to estimate the return period flood peaks (It is not clear wnetner the annual maximum oDservec peaks were converted in to instantaneous peaks). Further another relationship connecting catchment size to flood peak has been derived for 2 groups of catcnment sizes; one for catchment groups having catchment area less than 10,000 km2 and another one for catchment sizes more than 10.000 km2. It has been concluded that the formulae derived so can be used for pre-feasibility level studies only Master Plan has _____________________________________ _____________ _________ Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise 13 In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects May 2007 attempted to link slope of different catchments with flood discharge rates, which a*so did not exhibit any correlation It has been opined in the Master Plan that rainfall runoff correlations were not applicable No data or study results on flood side will be of any use to the present project specific study The flood studies adopted by the Master Plan might be useful for preliminary estimates teve' only Sediment transportation: For 96 stations, sediment rating curves have been analyzed with available data, on the basis of following type of relationships QL = a (H-Ha)° linking water level with flow QS = aQLp linking sediment discharge QS with liquid discharge QL with a and 0 as parameters The total sedimentation transported is accounted as the sum of suspended sediment load and bed load For bed load estimation. 3 different options are indicated, with a sort of recommendation on Meyer Peter equation However, at the end of sediment deliberations Master Plan study has felt that a global estimate of bed load transport for the whole Abbay basin or for any of the large sub basins has no meaning: Hence the study nas further stated that at Master Plan level, considering the amount of bed load transport definitely being small compared to suspended load and considering the size of the Abbay basin it was not necessary to proceed with data collection for evaluation of bed load estimation The above statement of Master Plan is not able to be appreciated without elucidation Subsequently, the Master Plan has prepared maps related to erosion The other studies connected with water balance ano water resources modeling seem to be in order Software WATBAL has been used in the modeling for vanous scenanos of development after initial calibration for the present scenario These have been done for 14 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects May 2007 • present situation • Future situation encompassing o Scenario N° 1 (identified projects 1) g Scenario N° 2 (identified projects 2 including Tana Beles) o Scenario N° 3 (identified projects in main stream) o Scenario N° 4 (F ull d evelopment ) The results could De utilized for comparing the results of specific sub basin oriented modeling studies, like the one under taken in the present study 2.5 Study by Ministry of Water resources for Lower Dedessa (2001) This is a reconnaissance level study for the Lower Dedessa Medium hydro power project. This gives a vivid analysis of the data and the Hydrological features of the Dedessa sub basin The aam site controlling a catchment area of 18,200 square Kilo meters, has the following water resources potential according to this study Mean annual flow =7290 Mm3 Annual Flow in 75% exceedance year=6300 Mm3 Annual Flow in 80% exceedance year=6100 Mm3 Annual Flow in 90% exceedance year=5230 Mm3 Annual Flow in 95% exceedance year=4600 Mm3 The following are the frequency floods estimates 10 Year return period flood 20 Year return period flood 100 Year return period flood 1000 Year return period flood 10000 Year return period flood =1977 cubic meter per second =2210 cubic meter per second =2735 cubic meter per second =3480 cubic meter per second =4224 cubic meter per second A sediment rate of 500tons per square kilo meter per year has been adopted. This gives annual sediment load of 9 1 million tons per year. The 50 year sediment volume of 329 Mm3 had been accounted for reservoir sizing. 15 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.ArjoDedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydr ological Aspects May 2007 The study had analyzed the energy generation with a net head of 133 meters and with tne assumption of regulation of 70% of the mean annual flow T he energ y that could be generated so, was estimated to be 1580 GWh per year, with an installed capacity of 299 MW, on adopting a plant factor of 0.6. This is very relevant to Dedessa sub basin and the present study The useful data were taken in to account. 2.6 Utility of Earlier Studies All the earlier studies reviewed have some useful data base All the useful information (data of all the above studies have been reviewed and utilized as per need and appropriateness). However, the present study is specific sub basin (Dedessa) development study, and as such, systematic hydrological ano modeling studies are warranted with modern tools of analysis. This sectoral report narrates these specific studies. 16 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.ArjoDedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects May 2007 3. DATA BASE For the study towards the development of the Dedessa sub basin, the data on climate river flows and sedimentation become relevant with respect to Hydrological Modeling ano 'A ater Resources Planning. 3.1 Climatological Data The climatological data like sunshine duration, relative humidity, wind speeds temperature in the resolution levels of monthly means of daily means, monthly mean of daily maximum and monthly mean of daily minimum, become very important parameters with respect to the proposed command area development. These, in association with command area rainfall form the basic inputs for the estimation of the crop water requirement exercise. A vivid analysis follows on these important parameters in the section 4 of this report 3.2. Rain fall The rainfall requires critical analysis for the dam site and the upstream for appreciating and developing floods; either as a full hydrograph or in the form of flood peak rate, expected at different Exceedance probability levels (return penods) The rainfall data needs to be analyzed in its various forms, like maximum of observed 1 day/2 day or 3 to 15 days values, or as a time senes of observed annual maximum 1 day rainfall or as monthly / fortnightly totals as per analysis at different stages The analysis has to under take tne gambit of short duration rainfall intensities as well, in connection with design of drainages and return period rainfall peaks for the design of flood control works, in tne downstream of the dam, in and in the vicinity of the proposed command area. 3.3. River Discharge Likewise the river flows data time series, preferably on monthly or fortnightly time resolution levels, forms the fore runner for establishing water resources availability for performing simulation whether as basic historical time series or indirectly througn synthetically generated time senes (mostly generated Dy a stochastic generation scheme); where as, the same flow data nas to be analyzed in a different form as discharge (flow rates instead of flow volumes) with respect to flood analysis Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt.

ESTIMATION OF REFERENCE EVAPOTRANSPIRATION 4.1 Intro duction The climate of the Aqo Didessa catchme nt results from its lo cation and e levation (1 300 to 3012 mete rs). The Iist of stations for observations of m eteorological dat a along with iength of records and availability of data types is given in Table 4.1 All relevant types of data have been recorded at Jimma (located very close to the head of the Didessa catchment) stations since 1953 Rainfall and temperature have been observed at Didessa and Bedele. Rainfall and temperature have been also recorded at Dembi and Agara stations. Climatic data for the project area such as temperature, relative humidity, sunshine hours, wind speed and rainfall have been collected and reviewed Consistency tests, data rectification and other adjustments have Deen performed as necessary, data gaps have been filled using interpolation and correlations methods as appropriate. The FAO Penman-Monteith method is maintained as the sole standard method for the computation of crop reference evapotranspiration (ET ) from meteorological data. This section 0 describes how the monthly ETO is determined from temperature, numidity, wind-speed and sunshine hours data collected at Banir Dar station. The ET calculation nas been carried out by 0 means of a computer The FAO Penman-Monteith equation determines tne evapotranspiration from the hypothetical grass reference surface and provides a standard to which evapotranspiration for various crops growing in the Arjo-Dedessa project command area can be related The methods for calculating evapotranspiration from meteorological data require various climatological and pnysical parameters. Some of the data are measured directly in Banir Dar meteorological station. Other parameters are related to commonly measured data and can be derived with tne nelp of a direct or empirical relationship. This section discusses the source and computation of all aata required for the calculation of the reference evapotranspiration by means of the FAO Penman-Monteith method 19 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.Arjo-Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects May 2007 The meteorological factors determining evapotranspiration are weather parameters which provide energy for vaporization and remove water vapour from the evaporating surface The principal weather parameters to consider are presented below. The data obtained from the Beoele, Dedessa and Jimma stations are assumed directly applicable to the Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project with application of appropriate information transfer mechanisms. 4.2 Meteorological Data 4.2.1 Meteorological Observation Stations Five meteorological observation stations are located in and around the Arjo-Dedessa Irrigation Project area. These meteorological data are obtained from the National Meteorological Services Agency (NMSA). Out of these Jimma is Class 1 station that include observations of rainfall, temperature relative humidity, sunshine duration, wind speed, and evaporation Bedeie and Dedessa are also Class 1 stations but do not include sunshine duration. In addition. Agaro and Dembi are Class 3 stations that include observations of rainfall and temperature. The longest record that covers 50 years of meteorological data is available at Jimma station that includes rainfall and temperature data since 1952 Agaro and Dembi stations are located within the cachment area of the proposed dam site Jimma station is located at approximately at 10 km from the divide of Dedessa catchment Bedelle station is located close to the proposed imgation command area of the project Dedessa station is located further downstream of the command area. The details like location, altitude, year of establishment along with their ciass are available in Table 4.1 Meteorological data available at the five observation stations located in and around the project area have been collected. The types of meteorological data available at these stations along with the length of data are given in Table 4.2. Jimma Airport meteorological station is taken to be the most reliable Class I station from which meteorological information relevant to the project area has been derived. The data from Jimma station has been used for both the catchment study and estimation of meteorological variables at the irrigation command area. The necessary adjustment for the differences in elevation has been made in transferring the data. Meteorological information from Agaro and Dembi stations 20 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects May 2007 whicn are located within the dam site catchment have been used for catchment study, in addition to Jimma station. Similarly, meteorological data of Bedelle and Dedessa nave Deen used in addition to the aata obtained from Jimma station for estimating rainfall and evapotranspiration at the proposed irrigation command. in summary, climatologicall data obtained from Bedele, Deoessa and Jimma stations were found to be the most reliable and relevant for use in the analysis of rainfall for the Arjo Dedessa irrigation project. Bedele is geographically the closest station to the command area. Dedessa station and the command area are located at the same elevation (i.e, both 1330 m asl). Jimma station (which is Class I) has the longest record of all the stations within the neighbourhood of the command area so as to De index station in extrapolating and interpolating missing and snort term of climatic data relevant to the Arjo Dedessa catchment and command area 4.2.2 Air temperature In the project farm area, the mean monthly temperature variations tnroughout the year are minor, oeing 20.0°C in December to 25 4°C in March. The mean monthly temperatures of the command area is given in Table 4.3 and graphically illustrated by Figure 4.1. Temperature data have Deen jsed in estimating evapotranspiration rates from reference crops. Agrometeorology is concerned with the air temperature near the level of the crop canopy In traditional and modem automatic weather stations the air temperature is measured inside shelters (Stevenson screens or ventilated radiation shields) placed in line with World Meteorological Organization (WMO) standards at 2 m above the ground. Minimum and maximum thermometers record the minimum a nd maximum air temperature over a 24-hour penod. Due to the non-linearity of humidity data required in the FAO Penman-Monteith equation, the vapour pressure for a certain period should be computed as the mean between the vapour pressure at the daily maximum and minimum air temperatures of that penod The daily maximum air temperature (Tmax) and daily minimum air temperature (Tmjn) are, respectively, the maximum and minimum air temperature observed during the 24-hour period The mean daily air temperature (Tmean) is only employed in the FAO Penman-Monteith equation to calculate the 21 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects May 2007 slope of the saturation vapour pressure curves (A), estimating saturation vapour pressure (e°(T) and aTK4 (Stefan-Boltzmann law). The soiar radiation absorbed by the atmosphere and the heat emitted by the earth increase the air temperature. The sensible heat of the surrounding air transfers energy to the crop and exerts as such a controlling influence on the rate of evapotranspiration. In sunny, warm weather the loss of water by evapotranspiration is greater than in cloudy and cool weather 4.2.3 Air humidity Mean humidity values vary between 56.63 percent in Marcn to 88 63 percent in September The mean monthly humidity of the command area is given in Table 4.3 and graphically illustrated by Figure 4.2 Data of humidity have been used in estimating evapotranspiration rates from reference crops The relative humidity (RH) expresses the degree of saturation of the air as a ratio of the actual (e ) to the saturation (e°(T)) vapour pressure at the same temperature (T). Relative humidity is a the ratio Detween the amount of water the ambient air actually holds ana the amount it could nold at the same temperature. It is dimensionless and is commonly given as a percentage. Although tne actual vapour pressure might be relatively constant throughout the day, the relative humidity fluctuates between a maximum near sunrise and a minimum around early afternoon The variation of the relative humidity is the result of the fact that the saturation vapour pressure is determined by the air temperature. As the temperature cnanges during the day, the relative humidity also cnanges substantially. While the energy supply from the sun and surrounding air is the main driving force for the vaporization of water, the difference between the water vapour pressure at the evapotranspiring surface ana the surrounding air is the determining factor for the vapour removal. Well-waterea fields in hot dry arid areas consume large amounts of water due to the aDundance of energy and the desiccating power of the atmosphere. In numid tropical regions, notwithstanding tne high energy input, the high humidity of the air will reduce the evapotranspiration demand. In such an environment, the air is already close to saturation, so that less additional water can be stored and hence the evapotranspiration rate is lower than in and regions. 22 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.Arjo-Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects May 2007 4.2.4 Wind speed Mean wind speed values vary between 0.48 meter per second in November to 1 08 meter per second in April. The mean monthly wind speeds of the command area are given in Table 4 3 and graphically illustrated by Figure 4.3 Average wind speed recorded at Jimma station in meters per second (m/s) is taken as wind speed information relevant for the Arjo-Dedessa command area as there is no reliable data at other climatic stations nearby. Time series aspect of the wind aata is not considered as it exhibits unacceptable erratic variation within the record period. Using the mean values against the time series data has been tested for Bahir Dar station and resulted in equal result for monthly and annual evapotranspriation estimates However, the mean wind values produced an estimated coefficient of variation (CV) of 2.2% instead of 2.4% estimated from the time series Wind is characterized by its direction and velocity. Wind direction refers to the direction from wnich the wind is blowing. For the computation of evapotranspiration, wino speed is the relevant vanable. Wind speed is measurea with anemometers. The anemometers commonly usea in weather stations are composed of cups or propellers which are turned by the force of the wino By counting the number of revolutions over a given time period, the average wind speed over the measunng period is computed. The process of vapour removal depends to a large extent on wind and air turbulence which transfers large quantities of air over the evaporating surface. When vaporizing water, the air above the evaporating surface becomes gradually saturated with water vapour If this air is not continuously replaced with drier air the driving force for water vapour removal and the evapotranspiration rate decreases. 4.2.5 Solar radiation Mean sunsmne duration is 8.3 hours in December and is reduced to 3.7 hours during July The mean monthly sunsmne durations of the command area are given in Table 4.3 and graphically illustrated by Figure 4.4. Data of sunshine hours have been used in estimating evapotranspiration rates from reference crops The relative sunshine duration (n/N) is another ratio that expresses the cloudiness of the atmosphere. It is the ratio of the actual duration of sunshine, n, to the maximum possible _________________________________ ___________________________________________ ____ 23 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt. Ltd.Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects May 2007 duration of sunshine or daylight hours N. In the absence of any clouds, the actual duration of sunshine is equal to the daylight hours (n = N) and the ratio is one, while on cloudy days n and consequently the ratio may De zero. In the absence of a direct measurement of R , 5 the relative sunsnme duration, n/N, is often used to derive solar radiation from extraterrestnal radiation. As with extraterrestrial radiation, the day length N depends on the position of the sun and is hence a function of latitude and date. The evapotranspiration process is determined by the amount of energy available to vaporize water Soiar radiation is the largest energy source and is able to change large quantities of liquid water into water vapour The potential amount of radiation that can reach the evaporating surface is determined by its location and time of the year Due to differences in the position of the sun, the potential radiation differs at various latitudes and in different seasons. The actual solar radiation reacnmg the evaporating surface depends on the turbidity of the atmosphere and the presence of clouds whicn reflect and absorb major parts of the radiation When assessing the effect of solar radiation on evapotranspiration, one should also bear in mind that not all available energy is used to vaporize water Part of the solar energy is used to heat up the atmosphere ano the soil profile. 4.3 Penman-Monteith Equation From the original Penman-Monteith equation and the equations of the aerodynamic and canopy resistance the FAO Penman-Monteith equation can be expressed as follows. ETo = 0 408 A (P nOry [900/(T -r 273)1 v - £=) (2.1) A + y (1+ 0.34 bj) where ET0 = reference evapotranspiration [mm day ], 1 R = net radiation at the crop surface [MJ nrf n 2 day ], 1 G = soil heat flux density [MJ m z day' ], 1 1 s a T = air temperature at 2 m height [°C], u 2 = wind speed at 2 m height [m s' ], e = saturation vapour pressure [kPa], e = actual vapour pressure [kPa] = e RH s mean.

Derivation of some climatic parameters from the daily maximum (Tmax) and minimum (Tmin ) air temperature, altitude (z) and mean wind speed (u ). 2 2. Calculation of the vapour pressure deficit (es - e ). The saturation vapour pressure (e ) a s is denved from Tmai< and Tmtn , while the actuai vapour pressure (e ) can be denved from a the dewpoint temperature (Taew), from maximum (RHma,) and minimum (RHmin) relative humidity, from the maximum (RHmax), or from mean relative humidity (RHmean). 3. Determination of the net radiation (Rn) as the difference between the net shortwave radiation (Rns) and the net longwave radiation (Rm). In the calculation sheet, the effect of soil heat flux (G) is ignored for daily calculations as the magnitude of the flux in this case is relatively small. The net radiation, expressed in MJ m'2 day ’, is converted to mm/day (equivalent evaporation) in the FAO Penman-Monteith equation by using 0 408 as the conversion factor within the equation. 4 ET0 is obtained by combining the results of the previous steps The following values were selected from FAO 1998 (Crop Evapotranspiration - Guidelines for computing crop water requirements - FAO Irngation and drainage paper 56). o Psychomemc constant (y) for different altitudes (z), ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 25 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Mete orological and Hydrological Aspects May 2007 o Slope of vapour pressure curve (A) for different temperatures (T), o Saturation vapour pressure [(e°(T)] for different temperatures (T), o Daily extraterrestrial radiation (R ) for different latitudes, a o Mean maximum possible daylight hours (N) for different latitudes, o oTk (Stefan-Boltzmann law) at different temperatures (T) 4 The estimated mean daily and monthly reference crop evapotranspiration magnitudes (in mm) from 1991 to 2004, based on Penman-Monteith Equation, are presented by Tables 4.3 ano 4 4. respectively ano graphically illustrated by Figure 4 5 The results of the meteorological analysis including the rainfall are provided in the annexture A Table 4.1: Table Details of Meteorological Observation Stations located in and around the project area S.No Station Name Latitude North Longitude East • Deg.

RAINFALL ANAL YSIS 5.1 I ntroduction The rainfall data obtained from B edel e, Dedessa and Jimma sta tions were found t o be the most reliable and relevant for use in the analysis of rainfall for the Arjo Dedess a ir riga tion project. Bedele is geographically the closest station to the command area. Dedessa station ana the command a rea a re I ocated at the s ame e levation (i.e. b oth 1 330 m a si). J imma station (whicn is Class I) has the longest record of all the stations within the neighbourhood of the command area so as to be index station in extrapolating and interpolating missing and shortage of rainfall data relevant to the Arjo Dedessa catchment and command area. The rainfall in the Arjo Didessa Catchment as well as in its surrounding is uni-modal type Most of the rainfall is concentrated in the May to September covering with virtual drought from November tnrougn March. The five wettest months cover 63 percent of the total annual rainfall The dry season, being from November to February (four months) has a total rainfall of about 7% of the mean annual rainfall The mean monthly rainfall for stations in the project area is given in Table 5.1 and their pattern is graphically illustrated in Figure 5.3. The length of rainfall data collected from Jimma is relatively more reliable compared to the data set collected from other stations because of its long record length and shorter time interval of observation. Didessa and Bedele stations also provide more relevant rainfall data that can be adopted for the command area since Bedele is close to the project area and Didessa station is located within the same climatic zone as that of the project area. 5.2 Rainfall Internal and External Consistency Though a good data base has Deen established for rainfall, considering the data of the three stations namely Dedessa. Jimma and Bedeie, it is customary in Hydro-meteoroiogical studies to firm up tne consistency with statistical analysis. The trend in the annual rainfall pattern is a relevant aspect with respect to the behavior of the rainfall and to compare such behavior with those of other relevant stations involved in the study with a view to firm up external consistency. Accordingly, a 3 year moving average analysis 32 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects May 200? was taken up for each of the 3 stations. The results are shown in the figures 5 1 (a), (b) and (c) These show similar trends Similarly an analysis with respect to the cross correlation structure among the 3 stations was carried out. The cross correlation matnx depicts the following status (Table 5.2) at annual time resolution level, which is not abnormal. Then the single mass curve analysis was taken up for each of these 3 stations (Figures 5 2 (a), (b) and (c). These also do not indicate any abnormality to reject this data set As such, these rainfall data were used in its different forms for various spectrums of the analysis 5.3 Estimation of Rainfall Reliability Level Using the rainfall and irrigation water available for the command area requires the magnitude ana reliability level of rainfall corresponding to various rainfall time intervals. Annual, monthly and half monthly intervals are chosen durations for the Arjo-Dedessa irrigation project Rainfall reliability level and magnitude can be analyzed by making use of theoretical distributions. In this study the Extreme Value Type III (minimum) distribution was utilized The distribution is also known as the Weibull distribution or as Gumbel's Limited distnbution of the Smallest Value. Naturally rainfalls are bound by zero or other higher values on the left The Weibull (or EV3) distribution can be expressed as: (5.1) where Xp = E + (U-E) [-ln(1-p)]1/A Xp = magnitude of rainfall corresponding to probaoility level of p. The moment estimates of the parameters E (the lower limit), U and a fie., E, U and A) can be obtained from the following equation U = Xm + Cv.Xm Y(a) E = U - Cv.Xm.Z(a) Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt. Ltd. (52) (5 3) 33Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorologic al and Hydrological Aspects May 2007 where Xm = mean value, Cv = coefficient of variation = standard deviation dividea by the mean, Y(a) Z(a) = (2-Cs)/6 = [8+(3-Cs) ]/9 3 and A = 3/(1+Cs) Cs = skew coefficient calculated from data The estimated monthly and half-monthly parameters of Weibull Distribution are given in Table 5.3 ana 5.5, respectively. The following algorithm were used in the denvation of annual, monthly, and half-month 55 to 95 percent reliability levels. 1. Averages, standard deviations, standard deviation, skew coefficient of annual, monthly and half-monthly averages were calculated. 2. Weibull Distribution parameters (namely U. E and A) corresponding to annual, monthly and naif-monthly rainfalls were calculated from the statistics. 3. Magnitudes of rainfalls corresponding to 55 to 95 percent reliability levels were estimated The results so obtained are given in Tables 5.4 and 5.6 for monthly and half-monthly time intervals, respectively The half monthly rainfall magnitudes as a percentage of mean, corresponding to various reliability levels are shown in Table 5.7. 5.4 Estimation of Maximum Rainfall Frequencies For internal drains and smaller control works, the need for various return penod rainfall and with different durations were found to be necessary In general, maximum rainfall magnitudes 34 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.Arjo-Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects May 2007 of intensity corresponding to various return periods (or probability levels) can be estimated by applying the following form l T = Im [1+CV.K(T)] <5 4) where l T = rainfall intensity corresponding to return period of T years (mm), Im = mean of annual maximum intensity of rainfall (mm/hrj, CV = coefficient of variation of annual intensity of rainfall. K(T) = frequency factor For Extreme Value Type I (or Gumbel) Distribution, K(T) = -0 779 {0.577 + ln.ln[T/{(T -1}]} The maximum annual 24hr rainfall service is given in Table 5.8. (5.5) The results of the maximum 24-hr and 1-hr rainfall frequencies are presented in Table 5.9. The 1 -hr rainfall intensities were estimated by the formula derived for Ethiopia expressed as. I h = I24 (0.523 + 0.15 In D) (3.6) where l h = maximum rainfall intensity corresponding to duration D (mm/hr), In = natural logarithm D = duration of lh (hr). I24 = maximum rainfall intensity corresponding to duration 24 hours (mm/hr) i he rainfall magnitudes for higher durations, 2 days & 3 days have also been analysed using the EVI frequency distribution.

MONTHLY STREAMFLOW ANALYSIS 6.1 Hydrological Observation Stations Hydrometric stations on the Dedessa river and the neighbouring rivers withi n the Abbay b asin the Omo-Ghibe basin have also been identified The hydrological data are o btained from the Hydrology Department of the Ministry of Water Resources (MoWR) There are two hydrological observation stations located on the Dedessa River These are Dedessa near Arjo town (Station No 114001) and Dedessa near Dembi town (Station No 114014). Station 114001 with catchment area of 9981 km2 is located about 44 km downstream of the proposed dam site and has become operational since 1960 where as Station 114014 with a catchment area of 1806 km2 is located about 137 km upstream of the proposed dam site and has become operational since 1985. Besides the two hydrological observation stations located on the main Dedessa river several hydrological observation stations are located on its tributaries. In addition, hydroiogicai observation stations on the neighboring Dabana near Abasina ( Station No. 1 14005), (Gilgei Ghibe near Assendabo (Station No. 091008), and Gojeb near Shebe (Statior No 091012) have been found to be relevant to the study. The list of hydrological observation stations for which data have been collected along with other details like their location and catchment area is available in Table 6.1. 6.2 Extension of records Streamflow gauging stations have been installed on the Dedessa River near Ago town iStation 14001) since 1960 and near Dembi town (Station 14014) since 1985 Before the streamflow analysis, data obtained from Station 114001 (Didessa near Arjo) ano Station 114014 (Didessa near DemDi) were checked for temporal and spatial homogeneity The investigation of nomogeneity was concentrated mainly on the outliers of the monthly data senes of the record Extremely hign or low values of each series, that has occurred at time T(i) in each month M(i). was checked against the records of the month M(i-1) and M(i+1) that has occurred at the same year T() so as to judge, whether the relation is still more or less the same as that of the other years. Whenever the outliers were rejected by this test, again another test was performed with ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - ------------------- 4b Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt. Ltd.Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects other data series of Station 114005 (Dabana near Abasina), Station 91008 (Gilgei Gnibe near Assendabo) and Station 91012 (Gojeb near Shebe) for the same period T(i). The data were checked for its consistency before use for different analysis. The investigation will concentrated mainly on the outliers of the monthly and daily data series. Extremely high or low values that occurred at a given time were checked against records of other near by rivers (such as Dabana). If the outliers are found to be inconsistent with others, then they were replaced by new values that were generated regionally from data set obtained from other stations. 6.3 Synthetic flows In this section, analysis of monthly flows is made with the intension of improving information required fro reservoir storage design. Reservoir storage design on the basis of generated (synthetic) flows is preassumed. It was realized that the specific sequence of historic events was a random occurrence that would certainly never occur again in the same way To get some idea about other possible sequence within the population, in order to improve reservoir design, generating a long streamflow series is a mghly accepted procedure by hydrologists. However, it has been pointed out synthetic (generated) flows do not improve poor records out merely improve the quality of designs made with whatever records are available. Mean monthly discharges, coefficient of variation of monthly flows, summary of regional monthly flow characteristics, statistics of monthly flows at Arjo Deaessa Dam Site are shown by Tables 6.2, 6.3, 6 4, 6.5 respectively. The monthly stream flows at different reliability level are available in Table 6.6. In order to maintain the historical skewness in the generated flows, the Weibull distribution has been fitted to tne standardized residuals of the monthly series Accordingly, the estimated parameters of the random generator that were used in the Thomas-Fiernng model are presented in Table 6.7. 47 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt.

Ltd.Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects 7 ESTIMATION OF FLOODS FOR UNGAUGED CATCHMENTS May — In the hydrologic analysis for dams, weirs, bridges and drainage structures, it must oe recognized that there are many variable factors that affect floods. Some of the factors that need be recognized and considered on an individual site by site basis are: o rainfall amount and storm distribution; o catchment area size, shape and orientation o ground cover; o type of soil; o slopes of terrain and stream(S); o antecedent moisture condition, o storage potential (overbank, ponds wetlands, reservoirs, channel, etc.), and o catchment area. in general, three t ypes of estimation f loods magnitudes (namely: t he Rational Method, SCS methoa and Transferring Gauged Data method) can be applied for the project area. 7.1 Rational Method The Rational Method can be applied to small catchments if they do not exceeo 12.8 kmz (or 5 square mile) at the most (Gray 1971). The consequences of applying the Rational Method to larger catchments is to produce an over estimate of discharge and a conservative design. The metnod is nevertheless frequently used in standard or modified form for much larger catcnments. This is because of its relatively simplicity. The vast majority of catchments producing flooas imposed on the commana drainage system lie within the validity of the Rational Method and it has been used as the principal method of estimating design discharges of dykes, culverts, drainage channels, etc. The Rational Methoa is Dasea on the following formula: Qm = 0.2778 C.I.A.Fr where Qm - peak flow corresponding to return period of T years in m /sec. = a 'runoff coefficient expressing the ratio of rate of runoff to rate of rainfall (see Annex C1 and C2), 3 51 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.ArjoDedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects May 2007 2 I = average maximum intensity of rainfall in mm/hr, for a duration equal to the time of concentration. A = drainage area in km ; Fr = is the areal reduction factor (this factors improves the catchment limitations imposed on the use of rational method). Coefficient of runoff C for the formula are given by many soil and water conservation texts (see Annex C.1). Information on rainfall intensity I in a time of concentration (time period required for flow to reach the outlet from the most remote point in the catchment) is required and can be estimated by the following formula. The selection of the correct value of C presents some difficulty. It represents a parameter that can influence runoff including; soils type, antecedent soil conditions, land use, vegetation and seasonal growth. Therefore, the value of C ’ can vary from one moment to another according to changes, especially soil moisture conditions (72) where Tc = (1/3080)xL’ 155 h ° 385 (Kirpich equation) Tc = time of concentration (in hours), L = maximum length of main stream (in meters), H = elevation difference of upper and outlet of catchment, (in meters). The area reduction factor (Fr) is introduced to account for the spatial variability of point rainfall over the catchment. This is not significant for small catchments but becomes so as catchment size increases. The relationship adopted for ‘Fr’ is based on that developed for the East African condition (Fiddes, 1997). The relationship can be expressed as; where Fr = 1 - 0 02 D'033 A 050 D = duration in hours, A = drainage area in km ; (73) 2 This equation applies for storms of up to 8 hours duration. For longer durations on large catchments the value of D can be taken as 8 for use in the above formula. 52 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hyd rological Aspects . 7.2 SCS Method A relationship Detween accumulated rainf all and ac cu mulated ru noff was derived Dy SCS (Soil Conservation Service). The SCS runoff equation is therefore a method of es timating direct runoff from 24-hour or 1-day storm rainfall The equation is: Q = (P - la) /(P-la) + S 2 (7.4) wnere Q = accumulated direct runoff mm P = accumulated rainfall (potential maximum runoff), mm la = initial abstraction including surface storage, inception, and infiltration prior to runoff, mm S = potential maximum retention, mm The relationship Detween la and S was developed from experimental catchment area data. It removes the necessity for estimating la for common usage. The empirical relationship used in the SCS runoff equation is: la = 0.2xS (7.5) Substituting 0.2xS for la in equation 7.4, the SCS rainfall-runoff equation becomes. Q = (P - 0.2S) /(P-»-0.8S) 2 (7.6) S is related to soil and cover conditions of the catchment area through CN CN has a range of 0 to 100 (can De obtainea from Annex C3 and ERA 2002), and S is related to CN by: S = 254x[(100/CN)-1] (7 7) Conversion from average antecedent moisture conditions to wet conditions can be done by multiplying the average CN values by Cf [where Cf = (CN/1OO) 04] 53 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt. Ltd.Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects May_20Q7_^_ 7.3 Transferring Gauged Data Gauged data may be transferred to an ungauged site of interest provided such data are nearby (i.e., within the same hydrologic region, and there are no major tnbutaries or diversions between the gage and the site of interest). These procedures make use of the constants obtained in developing the regression equations These procedures are adopted from the work of Aomasu (1989) as follows. Qu = Qg.(Au/Ag)°70 (7.8) where: Qu = mean annual daily maximum flow at ungaugeo site (m /s), 3 2 Qg = mean annual oaily maximum flow at nearDy gauged site (rrr/s), Au = ungauged site catchment area (km ), Ag = gauged site catchment area (km ), The estimate daily (or the 24-hr) annual maximum flood could be converted into a momentary peak as; 2 Qp = Cf. Qu (7.9) Here, Cf is factor estimated as Cf = 1 + 0.5/Tc (where, Tc is time of concentration). 7.4 Estimation of Weighted Average In general, the Rational method, SCS method and Transferring Gauged Data are recommended for relatively small, medium and large catchments respectively However, it is very important to establish a smooth pattern of transition from small to medium and from medium to large catchments. Accordingly the recommended weighted average estimate of peak flood can De given as. Qw = WiQ, + W .Q + W .Q 22 33 (710) 54 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.ArjoDedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects where. May 2007 Qi, Q2, and Q are mean annual momentary peaks estimated by Rational SCS ano 3 Transferring Gauged Data methods, respectively W,.W and W3 are weighing factors of mean momentary peak estimates by Rational. 2 SCS and Transferring Gauged Data methods respectively and W, = 12.5/(12.5+Au) (711) W3 =(Au/Ag)°70 (7 12) W = 1 - (Wi + W ) 23 (7 13) Where Ag and Au are gauged and ungauged site catchment areas, respectively. 7.5 Synder Method of Constructing Synthetic Hydrograph The Synder method has been used extensively to provide a means of generating a synthetic unit hydrograph. The following steps are used: Step 7 Determine the lag time, T , of L the unit hydrograph. The lag time is the time from the centroid of the excess rainfall to the to the hydrograph peak Synder derived the following empirical equation for lag time: TL =Ct(L.Lca)03 (7 14) where, TL = lag time (in hrs), L = length along the main channel from outlet to divide (in km), Lea = length along the main channel from the outlet to the point opposite the catchment area centroid in km, and Ct = an empirical coefficent ranging from 1.36 to 1 66. For Ethiopian condition. Ct can be estimated as Ct = 1 + 0.33x S °1 S = slope of the main stream. 55 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects M «y 2007 Step 2: Determination of hydrograph duration The relationship developed by Synder for the duration of the excess rainfall. Tr in hours, is a function of the lag time computed above T = T /5.5 rl (5.15) This results in an initial value for Tr of TL/5.5. However a relationship has been developed to adjust the computed lag time for other durations This is necessary because the equation above results in inconvenient values of unit hydrograph duration The adjustment relationship IS. Tjadj) = T *0.25(T l rn-Tr) (7.16) wnere T (adj) is the adjusted lag time for the new duration. T L RN. (7 17) 32 The unit peak discharge can be determined from the following equation; Up = (1/2940)x(0.94 - la/P)x(6.08 - In Tc)35 where, Up = unit peak discharge (in m /s/km /mm), Tc = time of concentration (in hrs), The peak discharge Qp is computed from; Qp = Up.A. (P - 0.2S)2 /(P+0 8S) and the time from rise of the hydrograph to the peak, Tp, is compured from Tp = 0.5 Trn + T (adj) L (7.18) (5.19) Finally, the hydrograph can be constructed using T/Tp and Q/Qp values presented in Table C5 56 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt LtdArjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological apd Hydrological Aspects May 2007 Tables 5.1 to 5.3 show estimated mean floods at seven relatively large catchments crossing the command area from the left and right bank directions.

Th e resulting relationship between magnitude and return period is referred as the Q-T relationship. Return period. T, may be defined as the time-interval (on the average) for whicn a particular flooa having magnitude Q- (also known as qunatile) is expected to be exceeded. A reliable estimate of the entire Q-T relationship cannot be obtained from small samples ot at- site data The benefits of regionalization in flood frequency analysis have been recognized at least since the work of Delrymple (1960). Nowadays, the regionalization approach to flood trequency analysis (particularly the inaex-flooa metnod) is becoming more popular An essential prerequisite for the index-flood method is the standardization of the flood data from sites with different flood magnitudes. The most common practice, used also in this study is to standardize data by division by an estimate of the at-site mean, thus Xi = Qi/Qm (8 1) Where Xi is the ith standardized flow. Qi is the i,h annual maximum flow. Qm is the average value of at-site annual maximum flow senes. Then the quantile QT is estimated as Qt = Qm.Xj (8.2) Thus, the mean annual flood is the moex-flood The parameters of the distribution of X are obtained from the combined set of regional data. in this study two distributions have been used for flood frequency analysis. These distributions are. (a) Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) distribution (Jenkinson. 1969) (b) Log-Logistic (LlG) distribution (Ahmed et al., 1988) 59 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.Arjo-Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects 8.2 Estimation of Probability Weighted Moments May 2007 Probaoility weighted moments (PWM) are useful for estimating the parameters of distributions whose inverse forms can explicitly be defined such as GEV and LLG (Greenwood, et Al 1979; and HosKing, 1986). Accordingly, probability weighted moments (PWMs) for unbiased sample estimates can be calculated as: N m 10k = . l/N)ZX,.(1-F,)k i=1 (8.3) where Xi = flood having ranked order of i Fi = (i - 0.35)/N = plotting position of the rth ranked flood N = record length The regionally averaged proDability weighted moments were computed as follows: 1. The standardized PWMs were computed for each site as: Xi = Qi/Qm where Xi is the i“' standardized flow, Qi is the ith ranked flow and Qm is the average of the data set 2. For eacn annual maximum flood record the first two probability weignted moments, PWMs, i.e. m10k. k = 1 ana 2) were computed using Equation (1). 3. For each k, weighted average values of PWMs over M sites included in the region were calculated as follows. M E X,.Nj.(m10k)) MWk = _Ei__________________ _ M Z X,.Nj J=1 (8 4) These M,Ok values were then treated exactly as sample estimates of PWMs for the regional standardized annual maximum flood population. LLG and GEV were fitted to the standardized regional PWMs. ________________________________ ____________________________________________________________ 60 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hy drological Aspects May 2007 PWMs M1OO= 1OOOO M1O1 = 0.411964 M102 = 0.250375 8.3 Generalized Extreme Value Distribution Jenkison (1969) introauced the Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) distribution for modeling floods. It has become more important in hydrology since it was recommenced by NERC (1975) for modeling annual maximum streamflows of Bntisn rivers. The GEV distribution is defined as: X = u + (a/k) {1 - (-In F) } k The snape parameter k, can be estimated as: k= 7 859 C + 2.9554 C2 where C = (Miqq — .Midj________ L - In 2 (2.M1oo-6.Mioi-t-3 M102) In 3 the scale parameter a = k.(M,oo - 2.M_wi) (1-2*).r(1-rk) and the location parameter u = Mi00-(a/k).{1-r(1+k)} GEV Parameters C = -0.00061 Gama = 1 0023 u = 0.879428 a= 0.253011 k = -0.00483 8.4 Log-Logistic Distribution (8.6) (87) (88) (8.9) (8.10) 61 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects May 2007 Log-Logistic (LLG) distribution was introduced for flood frequency analysis by Anmed et ai (1988) The LLG distribution is defined as X= a + b.{F/(1-F)}c The parameters c, b, and a can be estimated as follows The snape parameter c = Mioo-6.M_ioit6.Mio2 Mioo"2.M 101 the scale parameter D = Miqq-2.Miqi c.G and the location parameter a = Mioo — b G where G= ncj/sinn cj LLG Paameters G= 1.051033 a= -0.01767 b= 0.968257 c= 0.173014 8.5 Regionally averaged quantiles < 811> (8.12) (813) (8.14) (8 15) Generally the differences between estimates of standardized quantiles by GEV and LLG distributions increases with increase in return periods. In all cases clear differences are observed for the large return penods where LLG distribution gives larger quantiles compared to GEV distribution Estimated flood quantiles oased on GEV and LLG distributions are presented in Tables 8.1 and 8.2, respectively 62 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects May 2007 8.6 Choice of Distribution Robustness as a criteria has received widespread attention for choice of distribution for an annual maximum flood (AMF). Robustness is assumed to test whether a distribution and method of parameter estimation, considered jointly, are insensitive to departures from assumptions made in their use. In this regard, LLG/PWM has been found to be more robust than GEV/PWM (Admasu 1989). Often, a compromise has to be reached between flexibility and sensitivity to outliers. One may need to compromise on some kind of mid-way solution The compromise could be to use a three-parameter distribution such as GEV and LLG However, for this purpose. LLG has been found to be more attractive than GEV. In addition, LLG is less sensitive (compared to GEV) to changes in the small values of the annual maximum floods Therefore, LLG/PWM is better than GEV/PWM for modeling AM samples that display a dog-ieg shape when plotted on probability paper In general, LLG/PWM nas been found to be more appropriate for modeling annual maximum floods (AMF) compared to otner distributions. Therefore, LLG/PWM has been applied for estimating design floods required for the project. Thus, Dased on probability weighted moments method and using LLW distribution on a regional flood frequency approach, the return period floods have been arrived at for the proposed dam site.

PROBABLE MAXIMUM FLOOD May 2007 The probable maximum flood is defined as the most severe flood considered reasonably possible to occur It is customarily obtained by using unit hydrographs and rainfall information Annex C4 gives the recommended reservoir flood standards for three main categories of reservoirs. Category A has the most stringent standards, since for such a reservoir a breach in the aam would endanger the lives of people congregated in a town or village downstream. The worst conditions are envisaged, the spillway already taking the average daily inflow when the proDable maximum flood (PMF) arrives ana the wave surcharge allowance must be tor heights greater than 0.6 m. Categories B ana C have decreasing standard requirements In Ethiopia, the study of design floods on the basis of PMF requires further investigation The challenging problem is particularly that of storm rainfall and the varying temporal pattern of intensities throughout a storm’s duration; the occurrence of the peak intensity is a variable to De considered for further study at national level. The initial state of the catchment is also of great significance in the generation of an extreme flood. A thorough knowledge of a catchment and of its varying responses during adverse conditions is essential for an engineering hydrologist to evaluate design floods and such situation need to be investigated at an institute level. However in such a situation where there is maximum rainfall data, Hersfieid (1961) suggests the use of following equation to estimate 24-nr PMP in region so as to superimpose it on design unit hydrograph to give the PMF PMP24 = Pm +K.Sn = Pm (1+K.CV) Where PMP24 - 24-hr probable maximum precipitation Pm - mean of the 24-hr annual maximum over the period of record Sn = standard deviation of the 24-nr annual maximum CV = Pm/Sn = coefficient of variation K = a constant equal to 15 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise (9.1) 65 In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects May 2007 The mean annual maximum 24-hr rainfall for Bedele and Jimma are 55.5 mm and 51.3 mm. respectively: and also the coefficient of variation for Bedele and Jimma are 0.198 and 0 20 respectively For the Arjo Dedessa dam catchment Pm = (55 5+51 3)/2 = 53.4 mm CV = (0 198*0 201 )/2 = 0 20 Sn = 0.20x 53.4 = 10 68 K =15 Then PMP24 = Pm +K.Sn = Pm(1*K.CV) -4 0l*Pm = 4 01x53.4 = 214 mm/day Total volume of daily rainfall Vp= A PMP24 = 5310*214 = 1129 5 Mm3 Assuming runoff coefficient C that corresponds to the occurrence of continuous rainfall to be 0.68. the estimated rainfall depth that produces probable maximum flood becomes Vpe= C.Vp = 0 68-1129.5 = 768 5 Mm3 Using the catchment charactenstics given in Table 12 1 and applying the dimensionless hydrograph given by Table C4. the flood peak component due to the probable maximum rainfall becomes 3502 m /s Assuming the a Dase flow of 188 m /s the total peak flood becomes: Qp = base flow * peak due to storm = 188* 3502 = 3690 m /s Cumulative volumes of Probable Maximum Floods (PMF) derived from probable maximum 24- hr rainfall is given by Table 9.1 while design flood hydrograph derived from estimated PMF is given by 9.2 3 3 3 66 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.Ar]o Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects TaDle9 1 Table Cumulative Volume of Probaole Maximum Flood May 2007 Time Cum.

Suspended concentration rales varying between 45 mg/lt to 1670 mg/lt were observed from Didessa river Relationships between water discharge and sediment loads at various sites in the region are presented in Table 10 1. At-site and regional approach has been used to to estimate sediment rates from the estimated streamflows at the dam site Accordingly, the following relationship nas been derived Gs = 0 078 Q15 C0 1) ? Where Gs = sediment load (in gm) Q = monthly mean discharge (in lt/s/km ). Careful assessment regarding reservoir sedimentation will be required in the site as the life of the storage created by a dam is dependant of the sedimentation situation. Accordingly reservoir piannmg will include assessment of the probable rate of sedimentation in order to predict the useful life of the proposed reservoir in estimating reservoir sedimentation matenals onginating as oed load will be assumed to have a density of 1 4gm/cc and matenal cameo in suspension will be assumed to have a density of 1.2 gm/cc. The oed loaa at the dam sites shall be assumea to be 15 percent of the suspended load Monthly total sediment load (suspenaed and bea load) and accumulated total sediment load at the reservoir site are given py Table 10.2 and 10.3 respectively 09 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects May 2007 10. 2 Distribution of sediment in the reservoir So far the sediment load likely to deposit in the reservoir nas been estimated But estimating the sediment inflow to the reservoir is not enough as how h igh the sediment will accumulate in the reservoir is also important According ly Area-Incremen t method has been used for this purpose. The method is expressed as: Vs = Ao(H - Ho) * Vo Where (102) Vs = sediment volume to be distributed Vo = sediment beiow the new zero elevation H = original reservoir depth from the stream bed level Ho neight to wnicn the reservoir is completely filled with sediment, i.e , = neight of the new zero elevation Ao surface areas of the reservoir at the new zero elevation ano is the = area correction factor.

WATER QUALITY May 2007 The water quality status of the Dedessa river is evaluated using the data collected from MoVVR database Abbay River Basin Master Plan Stuoy Report (1998). The samples were taken as part of the supporting measurement for tne aquatic study and appear to represent the only available data on water quality within the catchment. Table 11.1 shows water quality measurements taken for Dedessa at two sites. The samples were taken as part of the supporting measurement for the aquatic study and appear to represent the only available data on water quality within the catchment. The samples snown in Table 111 were taken after the start of the rainy season and presumably all tributaries of the river exhibited adequate water quality at the time of sampling Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) and Electrical Conductivity (EC) Total dissolved solids characterized mainly by major anions ana cations are directly related to tne electncal conductivity of the water The low Electrical Conductivity (EC) and TDS value in general shows that the water is soft in nature and has low salinity Moreover, the low conductivity is sign of low fertility of the water with regard to aquatic life. Electrical conductivity (EC) measurements were very low at all the sampled sites. EC is the ability of the water to conduct electric current and directly related to the amount of cations and anions in the water PH The pH value is the measure or the concentration of hydrogen (H+) and hydroxyl (OH-) ions in the water It is to determine the acidity or alkalinity of the substance. Sodium and Potassium The Na’ and K’ reading expressed in terms of Sodium Adsorption Ratio (SAR) is the useful parameter for the evaluation of the water body for irrigation purpose.

DESIGN FLOOD 12.1 Syntheti c Hydrograph Among several known methoas of unit hydrograp hs, the one de velop ed by Synder (1938) is most commonly used. The method is derived fro m drainage bas ins in the Ap palachian Mountain region s in the United States ranging in are as from 25 km to 25,000 km The relations of unit hydrograph characteristics and catchment characteristics are expressed as follows (12.1) Where Tp = lag time from the mid point of the rainfall-excess duration Tr to the peak of a unit hydrograph (hr), Ct = coefficient depending on basin characteristics Lc = nver distance from the station to tne point of interest nearest the centroid of the drainage area (km) L = nver distance from the station to the upstream limits of the drainage area (km) The catchment characteristics (sucn as L, Lc Area. Slope) of Desessa at the Arjo-Dedessa Dam Site is given by Table 12 1 The U.S Soil Conservation Service (SCS) developed a dimensionless hydrograph that has its ordinate values expressed as the dimensionless ratio, Ti/Tp Qi is the discnarge at any time Ti The shape of the unit hydrograph dimensionless hydrograph, and Tp is the period corresponding to peak as shown in Annex Table C5. For a given catchment, once the value of Tp is defined using Equations 12.1, the unit hydrograph can be constructed 12.2 Flood Routing Through the Reservoir The dam is located where failure may probably be confined to the irrigation command and the dam itself No excessive loss or human life would be expected For sucn condition, a design flood corresponding to al0,000-year return period has been proposed The volume of flow in 1000-year return perioa flood hydrograph is about 400Mm3 75 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects May 2007 The data used to complete surcharge storage due to the design flood and routing calculations were inflow hyorograph for all selected design storms, elevation-storage relations for proposed storage facility and stage-discharge relations for all outlet control structures The step-by-step method of reservoir routing method has been used. The data required for the method to construct the outflow hydrograpn is: (a) the inflow hydrograph, (b) the elevation capacity relation curve of the reservoir and (c) the outflow-elevation curve or the outflow equation. Using these data a design procedure is used to route the inflow hydrograph through the storage facility with different surcnarge storage and spillway crest (outlet) geometry until the desired outflow hydrograph nas been achieved A spillway with ogee shaped crested weir has been assumed The equation generally used for such broad-crested weir is where: Q= Q = CLH15 discharge, in m /sec (12.2) 3 C = broad-crested weir coefficient L = broad-crested weir length, m H = head over weir crest, m If the upstream edge of a weir is so rounded as to prevent concentration ana if the slope of the crest is as great as the loss of head due to fnction, flow will pass through critical depth at the weir crest: thus gives an average C value of 2.2 The following procedures were used to perform routing through the reservoir SteP 7 Developing an inflow hydrograph, stage-discharge curve for the proposed storage facility Step 2: Selecting a routing time period, Dt, to provide at least five points on the rising limb of the inflow hydrograpn 76 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects May 2007 Step 3. Using the storage-discharge data from Step 1 to develop storage characteristics cu that provide value S (♦/-) (Q/2).Dt versus stage Step 4 For a given time interval. 11 and I2 are known Give the depth of storage or stage, H1, at the beginning of that time interval. S1 - (Q1/2).Dt can be determined from the appropriate storage characteristics curve Step 6 Determining the value of S2 + (Q2/2) Dt from the following equation 3 S2 + (Q2/2).Dt = [S1 - (Q1/2).Dt] * [11 + l2)/2.Dt] where S2 = storage volume at time 2. m /sec Q2 = outflow rate at time 2, m3/sec Dt = routing time period, sec S1 = storage volume at time 2. m3 Qi = outflow rate at time 1 m3/sec 11 = inflow rate at time 1, m3/sec 12 = inflow rate at time 2. m3/sec (123) Step 6. Enter the storage characteristics curve at the calculated value of S2 f (Q2/2).Dt determined in Step 5 and read off a new depth of water, H2 Step 7 Determine the value of Q2, which corresponds to a stage of H2 determined in Step 6 using the stage-discharge curve. Step 8. Repeat Step 1 througn 7 by setting values of 11 Q1. S1, and H1 equal to the previous l2, Q2, S2 and H2, and using a new I2 value This process is continued until the entire inflow hydrograph has been routed througn the storage basin. Since Equation (12.3) contains two unknowns, stepwise trial and error procedure is used Results of routed aesign floods based on LLG distribution, half-PMF and full-PMF are presented by Table 12.2, 12.3 and 12.4, respectively Tne elevation - area capacity curves of the reservoir are snown in Figure 12.1 The 10000yr return period design inflow and outflow hydrographs are shown in Figure 12.2 Such inflow and outflow hydrographs for smaller return -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 77 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associate with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt Ltd.Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects May 2007 periods like 10. 20. 50 and 100 year return periods are shown in Figure 12.3.

Modeling for Arjo Dedessa dam fo ri rrigat ion The simmlations discussed in previous sectio ns is fo ra com prehens ive ana lysis of Dedessa dam. which is the main focus of the TOR A de tailed Ms-E xcel based mod el, using 1000 years of monthly data of inflows, generated synthetically, were incorporated in the various runs to obtain the results, as indicated in the Table 13.3. As can be seen from the water requirement available at Table 13.1, for the ultimate development phase II, of the Dedessa dam, the optimal water abstraction is for RoT 2. scenario cropping pattern Based on various combinations of the simulation runs, which are very exhaustive, it could be stated that there could be two net phases of development. The designs however need to be made for the phase II development. The firmed up geometry of the reservoir at Dedessa dam for these two phases could as below. This is for the success of irrigation at 80% reliability. The following abstracts are based on the results of simulation considering only contemplated irrigation. □ For pnase I development of Deaessa dam ■ Irrigation command ■ Full reservoir level ■ Storage at full reservoir ■ Deaa storage level ■ Volume at Dead stage level ■ Live storage 13,700 na 1351 14 m 961.8 Mm3 1350.00 m 874.67 Mm3 87 10Mm3 ■ River bed levei 1320.00m ■ Area at Dead storage level 67 88 km2 ■ Area at full reservoirs level 71 14km2 ■ Irrigation Demand 148 43Mm3 □ For phase II development of Dedessa dam ■ Irrigation command 13 700 ha ■ Full reservoir levei 1351 39 m ■ Storage at full reservoir level 981 7 Mm3 • Dead storage level 1350.00m • Volumes at dead storage level 874 67 Mm 91 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Association with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt. Ltd.Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects May 2007 Live storage 107.00 Mm3 ■ River bed level 1320.00 m Area at dead storage level 67 88 Km2 Area at full reservoir level 72.07 km2 Irrigation Demand 194 49Mm3 Thus both the above pnases satisfy contemplated irrigation with 80% reliability, in the phase I and phase II, the cropping patterns envisagea are different However, for the final design of Deadesa dam, it has to be based on phase II development with tne above aam features if the development is for irrigation only. 14.2 The sub basin modeling When the aspect of the development of Dedessa sub basin as a wnole, including the present proposal of Dedessa dam. is taken for considerations, the need for the simulation of the sub basin becomes relevant. The details and components of such sub basin simulation modeling could be for the following objectives • To explore the possibility of power generation at Dedessa dam Since only a small fraction of the total inflow is to be used for irrigation, looking at power development options at the site by raising the oam height is an important consideration • In such a scenario as above, that is, full scale upper optimal development of Dedessa dam, it becomes a necessity to check that this optimal water abstraction does not jeopardize future developments tn the whole of the Dedessa sub-basin This requires basin modelling at a larger scale considering contemplated developments upstream and downstream In this report, simulation exercise has Deen carried out to address the first objective. A tailor made sub basin modeling was carried out by developing a Fortran source code named Arjosim to quickly undertaxe simulation exercise of various components with alternatives. 92 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Association with Intercontinental Consultants ana Technocrats Pvt Ltd.Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects 14.2.1 Power Generation in Dedessa Dam May 2007 The Deaessa aam with its phase II configuration, could irrigate 13,700ha at 80% reliability Since, left and right bank main canals take off from the dam, no incidental power can be generated as such. Hence, power development options are sought by raising the dam height to have additional storage for separate power releases. The FRL for optimal phase II irngation development is 1351 39 m. Two scenarios for Higher FRL values are considered with FRL of 1353 m, and 1356 m. For each FRL considered four different power release options are taken up for the simulation as depicted in Table 14 1 It should be noted that the given releases are total monthly releases for irrigation and hydropower That is, the given total releases less the monthly i rrigation r equirement shall b e u sed f or power g eneration. T here will b e a s eparate outlet for power at the same level as that of irrigation outlet, that is, at 1350.00m. The reservoir characteristics at the two FRls considered for the simulation are. Full Reservoir Level = 1353 m ■ Storage at full reservoir level • Live storage • Dead storage level • Volume at oead storage level • Area at full reservoir level Full Reservoir Level = 1356 m ■ Storage at full reservoir level ■ Live storage ■ Deaa storage level ■ Volume at dead storage level ■ Area at full reservoir level 1092.51 Mm3 217.33 Mm3 1350 00m 874.67 Mm3 77.88 km2 1341.16 Mm3 466 49 Mm3 1350.00m 874.67 Mm3 87.85 km2 93 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Association with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt. Ltd.Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorologic al and Hydrol ogical Aspe cts May 2007 The effective turbine cente r was fixed at 1322.00 m eleva tion. This of cours e, needs to be finalized as per ground condition and dam head/or otherwise, other location based powerhouse Also, tne plant factor adopted in the basin simulation runs is unity, and with unrestncted i nstalled c apacity. B ased o n a ctual b udget a nd p ower requirement a nalysis d y Hydropower and Dam design engineer these installed capacities could be changed or power generation could be restricted The results presented in the Hydrological simulation are with these assumptions on turbine center level and plant factor However, at detailed design stage with these firmed up figures, the sub basin models could be re-run in short time The power duration curves for the vanous runs are shown in Figures 14 1 (a1) to 14 1 (b4). These figures are useful to reckon the monthly power generation at various exceeoance probability levels at proposed FRLs of 1353 and 1356. With respect to annual energy production the results are presented in the Table 14.2 for Dedessa dam. This piture of energy generation is after satisfying irrigation needs fully at 80% reliability However the quantum of energy and power are of not very attractive type. 14.2.2 Optimal Power Generation With FRL upto 1956, as seen above, though irrigation is successful, the power generation scenario is not attractive, hence the simulation model Anjosim' was, slightly recoded for maxing simulations for increased FRL considerations and exploring the possibility of power generation at a higher levei. though the exercises are beyond the scope of the present TOR. A large number of runs ot Arjosim were undertaken under 3 different domains of preposition These are. Domain 1. k eeping t he p ower o utlet a t a i ower I evel o f 1 346 m a nd i ncreasing t he F RL i n stages, with various monthly power release patterns. Domain 2: keeping the power outlet at 1346 m and increasing the FRl in stages as above, but with model in built decision support basea power releases 94 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Associauon with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt. Ltd.Arjo-Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects May 2007 Domain 3: keeping the power outlet at the same level as that of irrigation outlet (of course a separate power outlet) and increasing the FRL in stages, with decision support based power releases by the model Domain 1 Simulations A set of 12 different runs were attempted within the FRL ranges from 1370 to 1376 m. and with different monthly power release pattern. Some of the optical ones are. i. With FRL 1370, the 97% power is 11.22 MW ii. With FRL 1372, the 97% power is 13.30MW ni. With FRL 1374 the 97% power is 13 62MW Beyond FRL 1374. there were no encouraging improvements in power generation Domain 2 Simulations These runs totaling to 10 were made with decision support based power releases in built in the model This obviously increases the power generation for the set of FRLs. The optimal runs indicated the following situation. i With FRL at 1372, the 97% power is 16.49MW n With FRL at 1374, the firm power is 17.20MW in. With FRL at 1376, the firm power is 17.90MW iv With FRL at 1378, the firm power is 19.50 MW Domain 3 Simulations Here in addition to decision support power releases, the outlet was best at 1350W instead of 1346M adopted in the previous domains. This improved the situation. Some of the salient model runs yielded the following scenarios. i. At FRL 1370 the firm power at 97% is 17MW n At FRL 1372m, the 97% power is 18.1 MW ni. Al FRL 1374m, the 97% power is 18 95MW lv. At FRL 1376m, the 97% power is 20MW 95 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Association with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt. Ltd.Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Meteorological and Hydrological Aspects 14.2.3 Reduction In flows at Dedessa Sub-basin May 2007 In either of the cases, covering 8 runs of simulation, there is no detrimental effect on the downstream flows of Dedessa sub basin. The maximum consumptive utilization is only for irrigation, which is only 194.49Mm annually, as the additional 3 releases made for power are not for consumptive uses The power releases flows downstream. Thus, a net reduction in the sub basin flows will be up to a datum of 195mm , even without accounting for any regeneration from irrigation. The sub basin of Dedessa contributes at its end annually to Abbay a auuatum 3 of 14,033mm3 (BCEOM Master Plan study). This will get reduced to 13,838mm because of 3 the proposed arjo Dedessa project, which is only a negligible reduction of 1.39%. As such, the Arjo Dedessa Dam proposal is not going to jeopardise the overall developments of the sub basin considering various identified projects of the sub basin. 14.2.4 Conclusions The simulation runs could be made for furtner different scenario. At this stage, it could be saia that the optimal power generation would be with FRl at 1376 m and with power outlet at 1350 m. The tail race is assumed to De at 1322 m in all the runs. With a plant factor of 0.6, the installed capacity could be arouno 33MW. Hydroiogically, the simulations can be perrormea funner without any constraints, provided that there are no geological, geothechmcal, design, environmental, social and other constraints The power generation at different reliability percentages are shown in the Figure 14.2 for the last run. However to form up power generation, even at higher FRLs, a prefeasibility study is required for exploring the possibilities of increasing the height of dam and establishing the technical feasibility and economic viability for generation of hydro-power 96 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Association with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt.

INTRODUCTION 1.1 General May 2007 Hydrogeoiogy refers to the occurrence, movement, chemistry (quality), etc of g o in general. It nas a diversified application in developing, utilizing and m g g groundwater Furthermore, different aspects of groundwater such as recharge d s g condition, aquifer type and set up, its interaction with surface water, etc are trea e this discipline. The nature of groundwater and how it behaves, when subjected to nature man-made activities is studied for different purposes sucn as for water supply (domestic, agriculture and industry) and construction of surface and sub surface engineenng structures (e g., dam, tunnels, drainages, etc). In order to develop and manage groundwater, one has to know its potential, quality and movement. Ethiopia nas diversified hydrogeological features tnat are attributed to its geology, structure, hydrometeorology, topography, etc The hydrogeology of the country has not been studied thorougnly so far With the exception of few areas such as Rift valley that has Deen mapped at scale of 1.250.000, the country has only small scale (1.2,000,000) hydrogeological map Hydrogeoiogy is usually applied for locating borehole sites in light of water supply Groundwater has Deen used without detail understanding of the resource In spite of ample groundwater resources of the country very little been studied and used so far Currently, however not only groundwater development and/or utilization but also its management is getting an attention. Since any development relies generally on proper utilization of natural resources, the government nas also given focus on water resource development both for domestic water supply and irrigation. As part of this water resource development, Integrated Master Plan Study of various River basins nas been undertaken in the country since some years The Abay River basin is one of them. Arjo-Dedessa irrigation project has been identified as one of the projects during the Aoay River Basin Master Plan study Hydrogeological investigation and study that mainly focuses on g roundwater occurrence, movement, chemistry, etc nas been included as one of the components of the feasibility study and des.gn of the project. Accordingly, this study at Feasibility Study level has been undertaken. Association with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt. LinArjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Hydrogeological investigations 1.2 Location May 2007 The project area is located within Dedessa River sub-basin which is in turn located River basin. It is within the Western Oromia National Regional State, particua y junction of East Wollega, llubabor and Jima zones. The sub basin of the imgat o p j bordered by O mo-Gibe River basin on eastern side and Baro Akobo River basin on SW side. The total area of the catchment at the proposed dam is about 5,63 project location is shown in Fig. 1.1. The project area can be reached from Addis Ababa through two alternative high ways take either to Bedele or Nekemt. The all- weather gravel road that takes from Nekemt to Bedele passes through the project area. Hence, in general the project area is about 480km from Aadis Aoaba through Jima and Bedele 2Fig. 1-1 Location map of Arjo-Dadessa Irrigation project ¥ P’cpmad w R*arStf»«m 1 2 o f o^vni-d ■>»« WVo-Ma BcunOar,Arjo-Dedessa Irrigation Project Hydrogeological investigations 1.3 Physiography May 2007 The basin drams a part of Jim. high lands Including Goma (Agaro).

Sibu Sire and Wama Bonaya woredas are also within the catchment. The command area is drained by river Dedessa and othe such as Wama River. The general slope of the basm/or catchment is toward NE, E and directions The area has generally a rugged topography with the highest elevation is about 2890 a nd 1 030 m amsl respectively located at S igimo-Gera area and Dedessa river valley The river basin has mainly a dendritic drainage pattern 3 Dedessa river catchment is shown in Fig 1 2. 1.4 Methodology and approaches In order to undertake the hydrogeolgoicai investigation of Arjo-Dedessa irrigation project area, the following methodology and approaches have been used: • Reviewing of the previous works and data available with different institutions such as MoWR, institute of Geological Survey. Regional Water Resources Bureau and Offices, Regional Water Works Construction Enterprises. • Field survey to collect primary information on geology, hydrogeology, geomorphology, ana other physical features of the area. • Preparations of inventory for water supply schemes and fixing their location with GPS measurement of water level for wells; estimation of discharge for springs, water sampling from springs, wells and streams/rivers for physicochemical analysis. • Interpretation of aerial photos, satellite images and Topo maps (1:50.000 & 1: 250,000); applications of various GlS and remote sensing software to identify and delineate lithology and geological structures, and finally to analyze, ano compile the spatial data, and to incorporate them as maps for various themes. • in-situ measurement of pnysical parameters of water quality indicators by using field water quality test kits (Ph, EC. TDS and Temperature meterj. . Finally, preparations of hydrogeolog al IC maps with different thematic layers such as hyarogeoiogic units, depth to groundwater table, water quality, groundwater yeld based on all the collected and analyzed data. 4Fig. 1-2 A map showing 3-D view of Dedessa river catchmentArjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Hydrogeological investigations 2. PHYSICAL HYDROGEOLOGY 2.1 Hydrogeological setup May 2007 The t»s,n comprises rofcan.c lava flows ma.niy Basalts and igmmBrte as well as pyroclastic Ians on j,ma side, where as nn llobabor and Wollega sides, me outcrop is manly basalfc lava flows except within the Dedessa River Valley, where the outcrop is crysta basement of venous granHes. gneisses and pegmafte The voidable rocks on Jim. Side are referred fo as Lower pan of Jim. volcnlc. composing flood Basalt with minor salics on the western, southwestern, eastern and southeastern part of the river catchment, e p y on the nigh land. However, at the lowtand pad of the catchment along the Dedessa River, the outcrop is referred to as Alghe group comprising biotite and horn blende gneisses. granulite and migmatite with minor Meta-sedimentary gneisses The voicamcs are of Late Eocene- Late Oligocene age. where as the gneisses are of Arcnean age. The volcanic rocks (basaltic lava flow) in Bedele area is referred to as Makonnen oasalt comprising flood basalts It directly overlies the crystalline casement that shows the unconformable relation for the two outcrops. It is Oligocene-Miocene age Similarly, Arjo area is comprised by such flood oasalts of the so-called Makonnen basalt. Based on tne investigations made in the area, various aquifer set up exist. The main aquifers are weatnered and /or fractured basaltic lava flows and other acidic volcanic rocks such as rhyolite and ignimbrite The aquifers of volcanic origin have both confined and jnconfinea cnaracter; for example the volcanic rocks in Agaro area show both characters. The confining layer in this particular area is highly weathered volcanic ash of clay size as revealed from existing well drilling data. There are aquifers that are attributed to sediments especially alluvial sediments along river valley and streams, and colluvial sediments near mountains and escarpment. In addition to these, there are also minor aquifers attributed to weathered Dasement rocks (granites and granitic pegmatatites).

GROUNDWATER POTENTIAL 3.1 Groundwater recharge estimation May 2007 in order de.eiop groundwater of an area, ds potenua! Induding its annual replenishment, which is usually referred to as groundwater recharge, has to be known. Grpu recharge of an area can be estimated based on different approaches. One of the best approaches ,s through water balance method In order to employ this method ol groundwater potential estimation, the necessary data have been acquired for a y suppementary io th.s method, base flow analysis tor Rwenslream flow (Dedessa River) nave been jndertaKen to derive some coefficients for water balance. Hence, in the groundwater potential estimation of Dedessa River catchment both methods have been employed in order to come up with concrete result as much as possible 3.1.1 Base flow analysis In order to employ Dase flow analysis approach for groundwater recharge estimation, the monthly discharge of Dedessa River from 1961 — 2002 for a total of 15 years have been used. The river flow aata is not consecutive due to some missing data for some years. Accordingly the mean monthly minimum flow of Arjo-Dedessa on annual base is shown in Table 3.1. The difference between the total flow and the Minimum monthly flow is supposed to be the surface runoff. Accordingly, the surface runoff for Deoessa river catchment at the gauged station is 2,105,796,874 m3 Where as the total minimum monthly flow of the river is 1,962,092,938 m as shown in the Table 3.1 The basic assumption in deriving groundwater recharge from Dase flow analysis is that the monthly minimum stream discharge is equal to the case flow This approacn has been mentioned by Wundt (1978) that the monthly minimum stream discharge best approximates the base flow, especially for humid climate Therefore t ne b ase f low t hat i s supposed t o c orrespond t o t ne groundwater recnarge i s round to De 196.6mm. This value is obtained by dividing 1,962,092,938m3 by the area of the gaugea catchments, which is 9,981 km . This amount of ground water recharge is very 2 Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise in Association with Intercontinental Consultants and TecLcrats Pvt Ltd.

Oeser, on the same method, the surface rundff of the Rrver catchment has been estimated as the difference Deiween the total river flow of Dedessa and I flow on annua, base and works out to 2.105.796.874 m’ that is attributed to surface runo This value IS used to denve the run off coefficient of (he river catchment to asses the surfacerun offfor the e ntire D edessa c atchmenl t hat will be used in the waterbalance approach of the groundwater recharge estimation in the next section.

Besides this, the change in storage, can be considered to oe zero if the water balance is made Dy taking water year /or nydrologic year Hence, the value of AS will be negligible/or zero since the calculation is to be made or annual basis Since rainfall record can be obtained from meteorological stations in the area, the main task left is to estimate /or calculate the potential evapo-transpiration from which the Actual Evapotranspiration (AET) can be derived for the catcnment. In addition to this, the surface runoff has also to De estimated/or calculated since there is no actual measurement of this component in the study area. The surface runoff for Ago- Dedessa river catcnment has Deen derived (estimated) as follows The monthly minimum stream flow has been considered as a base flow as mentioned previously and this value has been subtracted from the monthly total runoff to get the component that forms over iand flow from which the runoff coefficient.

Hence groundwater recnarge in the Dedessa river catchment oecomes as follows GWr = P (Sr * AET) = 1452.9mm - (944 57* 210 83) mm = 297.5mm This value is about 20.48% of the total annual precipitation in the area. This high recnarge rate may be attributed possibly to the relatively better vegetation cover and to the highly fractured rock prevailing in the area Finally an average value from the two methods, the base flow analysis method (196.6mm) and the water balance metnod (297.5mm), which is 247.05 mm, has to be used as annual groundwater recharge of the area. This value is about 17% of the total annual precipitation in the area 15Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Hydrogeological investigations 4. WATER QUALITY 4.1 Water samples May 2007 Natural water interacts with environment, and also it is affected by anthropogenic p o changing its chemical, physical and biological constituents. The utilization of this water requires an understanding of such constituents. Hence, the water should meet certain quality standard that is set mainly based on its purpose in order to use it. Some important physical ano chemical parameters have been determined for the water of the study area to compare its quality with certain standards set by different Organization such as WHO for specific water uses Water samples from different sources nave been taken for physicochemical and microbiological analysis cased on the actual/existmg geology hydrogeology and geomoronology of the area. Accordingly, a total of thirteen samples have been taken from springs and Wells. Fig 4 1 snows the location of the water sample points. All the samples have been submitted to the laboratory of WWDSE for analysis. In addition to these water samples collected during the field work, previously analyzed water quality oy different institutions nave been jsed for hydrogeological interpretation of the area.

(Davis 1966) The mam parameters to be analyzed to evaluate irrigation water quality are Boron. Sodium h azard. and Salinity These paramete plants either directly (e.g by causing an adverse physiological effects) or indirectly (eg y May 2007 limiting plant root nutrient or moisture uptake). Salinity is best estimated based on Elect ica Conductivity (EC) value Other direct indicator of salinity is Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) Tne two parameters. TDS & EC are related by the following equation TDS (mg/L) = 640 x EC (dS/m). wnere mg/L = milligram per litre. dS/m = deci Siemens per meter According to U.S Department of Agriculture, water with an EC greater than 4dS/m is considered as saline Sodium nazard is assessed by the so-called Sodium Adsorption Ratio (SAR). It is caused by sodic water Sodic water is water that has high sodium concentration relative to the concentration of calcium ana magnesium Water is said to De sodic if its SAR is greater than 12 SAR is calculated as follows SAR= [Na*]N0.5[Ca * * Mg *] Where the concentration of each cation is expressed in meq/L. If the concentration is expressed in mmol/litre. SAR = [Na*]/ [Ca2* ▼ Mg2*] According to Todd (1980 ana references there in), the water quality evaluation for irrigation basea on SAR ana EC are as shown in Table 4 1.

WATER LOGGING AND DRAINAGE 6.1 Topographic features and soil characteristics The undulating and rolling topography in upper part of the project area grad y gentle slope of flat land in the bottom valley of Dedessa. especially the lower part command area becomes almost flat. This flat land is covered with sediments colluvial/delluvial and alluvial origin. This sediment is underlain mainly by base May 2007 y The topography and land characteristics of the command area can be said to a level (0- 1%). nearly level (1- 2% slope), very gentle (2- 4% slope), and gentle (4- 6 x slope), categories as about 35% of the command area falls under first two categories and about 23% of the command area falls under the last two categories Though the command area is plain, it nas a rolling topograpny and there are several small hills dispersed in the command There are rising hills also on the outer boundanes of the command area on ootn banks of river Dedessa The major part of the area is comprised of vertisol (47% of the command area) that has very low permeability Next to vertisols are cambisols and luvisols covering 15% ana 8.68% of the area respectively Hence this soil type hinders the infiltration of the most incoming rainfall during rainy season On one hand this nelps to restrain the rise of the groundwater table through reducing infiltration, on the other hand the plain nature of the land wouldn’t allow the surface run off tc flow out easily. 6.2 Existing groundwater table Groundwater level in the project area vanes from 2 to 20m b g I In the command area the groundwater table is 2 meters below surface during rainy season except in few exceptional cases of surface water logging. During dry season the groundwater table was found deeper than 5 meters below natural ground surface The nse of the groundwater table can happen due to different natural conditions and man made activities. The application of irrigation practice is the major human interferences for rise of groundwater table The method of irrigatton (drip furrow, etc) that is practiced and the crops proposed to be grown will determine the extent to which it may affect the rise in groundwater level of the area Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise U o. ..u, ,„„.011Ull BUI . ------- '<> uaArjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Hydrogeological investigations May 2 007 6.3 Future groundwater table and recharge from irrigation Whenever there is a major irrigation project with continued and intensive irng there . always an app.ehens.on of rise of groundwater table If (be nse of the grounowa er lapie is significant, and it continues unabated, it may cause serious adverse p fertility of the land. Some of the factors that affect the nse of groundwater a • Topographic features • Land characteristics • Natural drainage system • intensity and amount of rainfall • Existing grounowater taole • Soil cnaracteristics • Crops and its water requirement • Seepage ana other losses from canal system • Sunace drainage system implemented and its effectiveness The estimated annual crop water requirement at primary canai nead, for various crops to be cultivated in the command area of the proposea Arjo- Deaessa project comprises four set of values categorized under two pnases each phase having two rotations.

This crude estimation since various factors among which the irrigation method ca the groundwater recharge 2 Along with other crops, cultivation of paddy has been proposed i n the co mma nd area Paddy is the only crop that requires constant standing water in the fi eld for its growth and development. Thus paddy cultivation results into percolation loss, and only that quantity of water which is lost through percolation has the cnance and tendency of reaching groundwater It may be noted that about 330 mm of water is estimated to be lost through percolation, and only this quantity of water has the scope of reacning groundwater wnich may add to the rise of the groundwater The intensity of paddy is only 30% in phase- I, which will increase finally to 45% in pnase- II. Considenng the entire command on average, the annual contributions of irrigation water tc the groundwater would be 99mm in tne Phase- I, which will increase to 148.5 mm under phase- II. Regarding other crops, they are all dry imgated i.e., no standing water is required The irngation water applied tc the field in case of all other crops except paddy will be contained as soil moisture within the root zone. Very small amount of water which will be lost below the root zone, will reach the groundwater Other losses will be in form of surface runoff wmcn will be taken care Dy sunace drainage system. As such the addition to groundwater □ue to irrigation of all other crops except paddy may be cons.dered very negligible and therefore, may be neglected. Seepage loss

The command area on which the seepage loss has Deen averaged out is tne gross command area, i.e., 17,825 hectares (178 250. 000 m 2) i.e.. the total seepage loss of 40,330,960.80 m3 is spread in the gross command area which gave an average seepage loss of 226.26mm from the irrigation canal Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Association with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvt. Ltd. 33Arjo Dedessa Irrigation Project Hydrogeological investigations Hence, if we reduce this amount from the recharge due to the applies mentioned above (241 95mm). the net recharge that contributes to the grou nse becomes only 49 4mm Therefore, under this scenario the groundwater le the application of irrigation will be May 2007 _ z * Groundwater I evel r ise due to application of i rrigation. 0.141m. r = G R/ru = 49 4 mm/0 35 - Scenano III According to the paddy cultivation and seepage loss from canals, the annua groundwater recnarge from the application of irrigation is 3 4 76 mm as mentioned 7 if this is the case, the groundwater level nse due to the application of irrigation under stagnant groundwater condition becomes Groundwater level rise due to application of irngation. GWLr = GR/n =374 74 mm/0.35 - e 1070 74mm= 1.07m. Scenario IV: (Scenario III under dynamic condition): This Scenario assumes that groundwater is continuously flowing out of the catcnment. Hence, only 20 42% (76 53 mm) of the groundwater recnarge from irngation water will contribute to tne groundwater level nse Therefore, the groundwater level rise under this Scenario becomes, GWLr = GR/n = t 76 53 mm/0 35 = 218.66mm = 0.219m. In conclusion, the assumption of stagnant groundwater condition Scenarios (scenario I ana III), over estimates the groundwater level rise due to the application of irngation Because it assumes static)or stagnant groundwater condition that is not the case in reality since groundwater is usually in a dynamic condition The second Scenario (Scenano II) relies on groundwater recharge estimation from irngation water application equals that from precipitation However groundwater recharge from irngation water application, particularly from paddy irngation and canal loss should be higher than from precipitation Hence, this scenano underestimates the groundwater recharge. Therefore, according to this mvest.gat.on, the Scenano that works best is Scenario IV. Hence, the annual groundwater level nse due to the application of irngation water will be 0.219 m However, it has to be noted that the existing soil in the 10am soils as reveaiea from soil survey (sampling and command area is mainly clay and analysis) under the same project Water Works Design & Supervision Enterprise In Association with Intercontinental Consultants and Technocrats Pvx Ltd. 35Arjo-Dedessa Irrigation Project The soil has an average hydraulic conductivity of 0 0000056 m/s, i.e. 0.482 m/day value is very small inhibiting the infiltration of any water (precipitation or irrigation) to Groundwater Hence, the contribution of groundwater recharge from the application imgation should be less than the amount stated here. Therefore, the groundwater level rise Que to the application of imgation cannot exceed 0.219m/year Another factor that can reduce the contribution of irrigation application to groundwater recnarge is the presence ot number of creexs that are transversal to the trend of the command area and Dedessa River. Some infiltrated water from the imgation application will come out as regeneration through the creeks before reaching the groundwater table. Profile across some creeks and Dedessa nver in the command area is available in Fig 6.1 (a, b c, d and e). The lines along which the profiles nave been taken are also shown in the map Fig. 6.2. Although there is no well documented well completion aata in the command area, the depth to groundwater in the area is beiow 5 meters during dry seasons except in some creeks such as Chuli area (eastern pan of command area) wnere the water table is about 2 meters beiow ground surface. Only few boreholes and their data exist in the Dedessa River valley of project area since it is inhabited mainly through resettlements only 2- 4 years ago hence, construction ot contour map depicting depth to groundwater is hardly possible under such data limitation since tney are entirely constructed for emergency purposes. 36!i h H ■I ■i * * * * 0 0 0 II’From Pot: 232335.077, 944187 179 lo Pot; 213587.927. 956965.006 fig 6! t)Wkfa

SALINITY AND SODICITY May 2007 Salinity of soils/water can be defined in terms of electncal conductivity. Particularly it is the electrical conductivity of the saturation extract. However, sodicity is defined of e xchangeaDle sodium percentage. Salinity may be categorized into two based o sources, primary (innerent) salinity and secondary salinity Primary (inherent) salinity derived from the weathering/degradation of pnmary rocks/minerals It usually occurs when evaporation exceeds precipitation. Where as secondary salinity is derived from the upward movement of salts from saline groundwater through capillary size under the situation of in adequate leaching This situation happens mainly under shallow groundwater Mass flow to the soil surface through capillary rise is known to cease when the water table is below 2 meters in a clay and silty clay; where as the same value is 1 6 meters in coarse textured soil Water ana soil salinity occur aue to different reasons. Among them are over irrigation that causes groundwater level rise due to in appropnate provision of drainage and/or crop water requirement calculation, poor method of irrigation, capillary rise of ground water due to naturally high grounawater level below surface, etc When such raised grounowater level is suojectea to evaporation loss, the chemical constituents of the water will be left over and becomes concentrated on the sunace leading to soil and/or water salinity. The leaching of some existing nutnents in soil is also the potential source of salinity of water and soil in irrigation. In oraer to assess the possibility of salinity for the project area in the future, data have oeen collected and have been evaluated. Among them are the existing ground water quality (physicochemical characteristics of groundwater), ana soil chemistry Other Parameters that have been given emphasis here is the meteorological parameters that cause high evapotranspiration. However, the high rate of precipitation (rainfall) in the area can counteract the problem by leaching the highly soluble salts such as chionaes, sulphates and carbonate salts The distribution of relatively saline water is SDoradic in thP ar =.

EXSITING AND FUTURE PROSPECT OF GROUNDWATER 8.1 Existing groundwater development May 2007 Presently, the majority of the Woredas' capital town and the rural community in the rive catchment are supplied potable water from groundwater, either through borehole construction or from spring development with the exception of Bedele town that get water from Dabana River througn the treatment of raw water The yieid of groundwater from some volcanic lava flow shows very promising result both for current and future water supply from groundwater for different purposes. Can be mentioned as examples are boreholes for Agaro town wnere the yield is about 30lit/sec from a single borehole. Furthermore, the aquifer in this particular area has multilayer system attributing to a confined aquifer Here, it is vital to discuss Agaro town as an example The town is entirely supplied water from grounawater through boreholes. There are three new boreholes and two old boreholes. Among these boreholes, four boreholes are currently functional, one from the old and three of the new borenoies. in addition to this, the Quaternary sediments in the nver valley are the potential aquifers for groundwater development, particularly shallow groundwater Other Woreda towns that are supplied potable water from groundwater are Arjo, Atnago. Gatira and Atnago 8.2 Future groundwater prospect The existing geological, meteorological, hydrogeological and geomorphoiogical conditions in the river catchment indicate there are areas that can be developed in light of groundwater for various water supply purposes. Accordingly, potential well field sites have been identified in order to develop groundwater These identified well field sites nave to be verified based on geophysical investigations and test well drilling before being entirely developed. The likely limitation in the future groundwater development in the area is not the quantity but the quality (relatively high iron concentration).
