SEDIMENTATION HAZARD
AND RESERVOIR PLANNING IN THE
AMHARA REGION:
A CASE STUDY ON ANGEREB
WATERSHED
1. INTRODUCTION
4. LIMITATIONS

Absence of Topo map of Gondar area
at scale of 1:50,000 (1237A1-A4)

Absence of previous study documents
(Angereb watershed)
6. OBJECTIVES OF THE PROJECT

To assess sedimentation hazard of the
region

To compare the empirical formulas with
respect to the actual values so as to aware
designers, planners and policy makers
3. METHODOLOGY
METHODS
The watershed was divided in to 8 main and 5
smaller sub watersheds
Results in 260 mapping units
Data (such as land use, soil depth, color, infiltration,
stoniness etc) were collected from each sub
watersheds
Catchment morphology,drainage parameters such
as
Soil loss and sediment yields were analyzed based on
the worst condition of the factors
… CONTINUED
Field observation
 Questionnaire
 Focus group discussion
 Review of secondary data sources
 Problem tree analysis
 Microsoft excel, Arc View & Arc Info
 Bathymetric measurement
MATERIALS
Aerial Photo of scale 1:50,000
 Table Stereoscope, Digital Planimeter,
Clinometers,
 Computer and its accessories
 Topo-map of scale 1:50,000 (Code 1237B3)
 Others ( like digitizing board)
2. BACKGROUND OF STUDY AREA
LOCATION
 Found in North Gondar Zone of Amhara
Regional State.
 Located at about 748 and 180 km from Addis
Ababa and Bahir Dar, respectively.

SEDIMENT YIELD
Sr = Sediment yield (ton) at the watershed out let
E = total erosion (ton)
A = Watershed area (ha)
(1/A0.2) = delivery ratio (0.167)
Thus, Sr = 546,454.24*(1/7623.92 0.2)
= 91,436.19 ton/yr
 With trap efficiency 95% (90 to 98%. )
Sr= 91436.19*0.95
Sr= 86,864.383ton/yr (86,864,383.01kg/yr)
 Finally it will be 83,389.81 m3/yr with 20% bed load
 But
the actual (bathymetric survey) result shows the
sediment load is 128400 m3/yr


Under sluice gate of the dam should be kept open
from June 15 to August 20 each year.
Total of 7,869,312m3 of water is expected to be
released
The sediment volume is reasonably assumed to be
1% of the water volume, Amounting to 78,690m3
16. CONCLUSION & RECOMMENDATIONS
CONCLUSION
From the analysis results
 It is indicated that

a great deal of runoff at the outlet point

the sediment yield is much more than the
calculated value using empirical formula i.e. our
estimation of sediment yield is much more less
than the actual value
…CONTINUED

watershed treatment can reduce sediment
loads of the reservoir
 Flushing is much more advantageous than
catchment treatment
 But using both of them is effective in
reducing reservoir sedimentation so as to
sustain life of the dam .
… CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
RECOMMENDATION

Mechanism like sluice gate, bypass structures
should be provided for earth dams for minimum
sediment deposit in each season.
 Under sluice gate of the dam should be kept open
for some time each year.
 There should be some method appropriate for the
region in designing and planning reservoirs.

Open for discussion!
