Evaluation of Environmental Impacts Assessment of Liro's Power Reservoir Dam Project

The Assessment of environmental Impacts of Liro’s reservoir dam was carried out following the collection, analyzing and resolution of data, and the anticipation of various impacts of the project. Following the description of project. Environmental inventory of the region including physico-chemical, biological, economical, social and cultural were proceeded. The quality and quantity parameters were compared with national standards. In the lack of a standard, assessment was held as the rate of variations (diversion) compared to the present situation, and as the effect on the environmental sensitive parameters; in other incidents specialists and experties’ judgements are compared and assessed, and based upon the percentage of effects on environmental factors, various impacts on the three environments were investigated. In this approach two choices (options) implement and avoidance were compared, where upon following various considerations, it was concluded that the option of ‘implement’ contained more positive impacts in comparison to the option of ‘ avoidance’.
