Navigation, drinking water supply, sand quarrying, irrigation
Unique natural breeding habitat for Carp spawning in Southeast Asia. -83 finfish species under 13 orders and 35 families and 10 shellfish (9 prawns and one crab) under 1 order and 3
families (Azadi and Arshad-Ul-Alam, 2013)
Water uses and Rubber Dam Project
08/05/2020 3
Rubber Dam:
The cross-rubber dam built at Bhujpur in Chittagong 2012 to facilitate irrigation . The Local Government and
Engineering Department (LGED) constructed the 4.5meter high dam in 2012
With the dam retaining water up to 4.5m deep in the reservoir,
Cost-$1.25 million, EIA –None,.
Irrigation for Boro and IRRI cultivation on 10,000 acres of land at upstream area, three tea estates –
Four Tea Estate-Achhiya, Halda valley, and Khoiyachhari -- draw water.
Water Supply issue for 20MLD+90MLD station:
Has caused seawater to get into the river, sharply
increasing salinity at downstream location
The increase of salinity in the river now threatens the
livelihood of several thousand fishermen and egg
collectors. Moreover, around a five-kilometer stretch of
the river next to the dam remains dry for around three
months from January.

The overall length of the river is
approximately 107 km (Siddique,
2018) and the total catchment area is
about 645 square miles (Badiuzzaman,
1978). The average depth of the Halda River
is 21 feet (6.4 meters) and the utmost
depth is 30 feet (9.1 meters). The discharge of water during 1983-
2012 varies from 0.06–548.67 m3s-1

Ruber Dam Impact: Flow of water from upstream of Halda decreased, allowing seawater to enter the river.
Water Level 5 km downstream location, Panchpukuria
08/05/2020 14
Turbulent water was found in summer and monsoon months due to the high current velocity, turbidity and water temperature in the river.
Chemical measurements of the water were high in winter months (Patra et al., 1985).
Some strong positive linear relation had found between the water quality parameters indicating common origin entirely from industrial effluents, municipal wastes, and agricultural activities (Bhuyan et al., 2017).
Halda River pollution caused by industrial waste (53%), sewage contamination (20%), tobacco farming (13%), the rubber dam (8%) and sand extraction (6%) (M. Islam et al., 2017).
Regular alkalinity with 5.9-8.4 mgL-1 DO, 0.3-2.8 mgL-1 BOD and 24-96 mgL-1 COD were found in river water. (Karim et al., 2019)

• Water Quality is under a satisfactory level since peoples intervention on it. Soil conservation measure to implement
• The upstream-downstream linkage is heavily regulated by irrigation dam and rubber barrage on it major tributaries at upstream.
• The higher sediment load and siltation in its downstream and at different hydraulic structure points would be attribute to land use change and flow regulation.
• The mean flow in the river decreases during pre-monsoon season in last 6-10 years.
• Floods are more likely to occur in downstream region compared to upstream region in same hydro-meteorological regime.
• Akter and Ali (2012) the minimum water level as 1.5 m to ensure fish spawning
• Alternative income generation activity to reduce direct dependence
• Urban Waste and wastewater treatment and management.

Final Remarks • There were four parameters considered for water quality monitoring where all the parameters
showed within the standard level.
• The upstream-downstream linkage is heavily regulated followed by construction of irrigation
dam and rubber barrage on it major tributaries at upstream which had great influence on the
ecology of the river.
• The higher sediment load and siltation in its downstream and at different hydraulic structure
points would be attribute to land use change and flow regulation.
• The average flow in the river decreases during pre-monsoon season in last 6-10 years.
• Floods are more likely to occur in downstream region compared to upstream region in same
hydro-meteorological regime in this basin.
• QSWAT was applied in the study area for the first time, that is significant improvement in
SWAT catchment modelling effort.
