EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The Nandi Forest Multipurpose Dam Project is a promising milestone undertaking which if

implemented could lead to sustained rural development and alleviation of poverty in the project

area. The project is strategic in light of the National development goal of transforming Kenya

into an industrialised economy by the year 2020, and a key project in the region towards

achievement of the Vision 2030.

The project will have five major components: the storage dam and environmental conservation,

the domestic and industrial water treatment & supply system, the power generation station to

produce 60 MW and the irrigation of nearly 10.000 ha of agricultural land on the Kano plains.

The implementation of the project will however be preceded by a detailed feasibility study.

The project implementation will be undertaken in phases to avoid overlaps and implementation

bottlenecks. In this regard the first phase will comprise the detailed feasibility study and design.

The study will in turn be conducted in phases (stages), namely, the Exploratory & Planning

Stage followed by the Feasibility Study Stage and finally the Project Preparation, Design and

Tender Documentation Stage and implementation.

The Key objectives of the project include:

An integrated development

Increasing the supply of energy in the region.

Creating employment opportunities in the rural areas.

Stimulating industrial development in the region.

Providing adequate and reliable water for domestic, agricultural & industrial use.

Encouraging the development of small enterprises and agricultural processing plants.

Catchment conservation

Other Related Benefits

Water supply to the surrounding institutions; for dairy and horticultural production in the

upper areas

The damming will lead to reduced flooding incidences in the areas around Yala Swamp,

which usually occur during the peak periods of the rainy season and has major influence

on the Nzoia flooding problem.

In order to avoid implementation pitfalls both the study and the project will be implemented in

phases so that lessons learned help to improve efficiency in the subsequent operations thereby

preventing resources wastage and environmental catastrophes. Finally the key stakeholders and

beneficiaries will be involved from the onset to obtain active participation and support of the

locals.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

The Lake Basin Development Authority (LBDA) was established in 1979 by an Act of

Parliament Cap 442 of 1979. The prime objective of the LBDA is to plan, coordinate and

implement development projects and programmes on the Kenyan side of the Lake Victoria

Basin. This includes promotion of regional economic activities and mobilization of domestic

resources for equitable development towards achievement of the countries development goals

and objectives.

The Lake Basin region is situated between latitudes 1˚16'N and 1˚54’s and longitudes 33˚55'E

and 35˚51'E. It covers an area of approximately 39,240sq km, which is about 6.9% of the total

land area of Kenya. Its climate is mild with small variations in monthly average temperature

between 19˚C and 25˚C throughout the year. Daily temperatures fluctuate more widely, ranging

from 15˚C to 30˚C. Rainfall in this region has an annual average of about 1300mm varying from

2000mm in the highlands to 1000mm in the north, southwest and lowlands along the lakeshore.

Rainfalls exhibit a bimodal pattern with long and short rainy seasons in the period of March to

June and September to November respectively.

About 11.2 million people occupy the Lake Basin region, which is about 40% of the country’s

total population (1999 population census). The region consists of Nyanza and Western

Provinces and some parts of the Rift Valley Province. Certain areas in the region are among the

most densely populated in the country. This has led to an economic pressure being exerted on

the high and medium potential lands in the region.

Six major rivers and many small ones, most of which are seasonal drain the basin into Lake

Victoria. The Major Rivers are Sio, Nzoia, Yala, Nyando, Sondu and Kuja. The Proposed Nandi

Forest Multipurpose Dam is the Yala River.

2.0 PROBLEM STATEMENT

Although the LBDA region is endowed with abundant water resources, land and readily

available labour, the region however suffers from poor and unreliable rainfall distribution and

flood hazards, which alternate unpredictably so that stable food production cannot be realized

without developing irrigation and drainage farming methods.

The Lake Basin region also suffers from inadequate power supply, which would otherwise

promote accelerated industrial development especially in the rural areas. Overall Kenya’s current

energy production and consumption are well below the levels needed to support not only a

satisfactory standard of living but also the country’s vision of an industrialised economy by the

year 2020. Recent droughts have worsened the situation and energy supply from hydropower

has reduced significantly.

3.0 BACKGROUND INFORMATION

3.1 Agricultural Sector

The Agricultural sector is the single largest sector of Kenyan Economy, it accounts for about

27% of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Dependence on this sector is infact much heavier.

The agricultural sector has though witnessed a declining contribution towards GDP, falling from

36.6% between 1964 and 1973 to a low of 2.2% in the late 1990’s. The sector contributes over

5

50% of total export earnings and 60% of national income and accounts for 80% of national

employment. It is thus expected to carry the burden of ensuring sustainable economic growth in

the country. In this respect, the Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper for the period 2001-2004

therefore ranks the agricultural and Rural Development sectors in the country’s economy as a

priority. Factors contributing to this poor performance include bad weather, poor world

commodity prices and poor infrastructure. This especially; is in the areas which solely depend

on rain fed agriculture for meeting most of their food and agricultural raw material requirements.

Against this background, it is obvious that well planned integrated development with appropriate

facilities will play a major role in the development of a viable, productive and sustainable rural

Kenya.

In Kenya, the ninth Development Plan (2002 - 2008) is now under execution, setting main

themes for mobilization of resources for development. In line with these themes, the Government

stresses the importance of promoting rural development so as to improve and stabilize food

supply through optimum utilization of available land and water resources. Over-reliance on rain-

fed agriculture is identified as a contributor to food shortage and insecurity in the country. The

Government is undertaking to improve infrastructure and the economy in general for the purpose

of promotion of agriculture and manufacturing sectors. The Government at the moment is

divesting from public enterprises and moving towards the provision of adequate socio-economic

activities leading to creation of employment opportunities, stimulating private agro-based

industrial growth and poverty alleviation.

Of the total estimated Kenya’s land area of 567,249 km2 about 10.8 million hectares is

considered arable. The estimated total cropped area per annum is about 2.4 million hectares. Of

this, the total irrigated area is estimated at 65,000 ha which amounts to only 17% of the

approximately 540,000Ha potentially irrigable area in the country.

3.2 Energy Sector

Kenya’s energy sector is largely dominated by imported petroleum for the modern sector and

wood fuel for rural communities, the urban poor and informal sector. The current domestic

demand for petroleum fuels accounts for 25% of the total import bill. In terms of energy supply,

wood fuel provides about 68% of the total energy requirements, petroleum energy 20%,

electricity 10% and other alternative sources account for 2%.

Kenya’s current electricity generation capacity is inadequate, with demand regularly exceeding

supply during the peak periods. This normally leads to rationing. From September 1998 to early

2001, the country went through severe power rationing due to a prolonged drought, which

negatively affected performance of the economy. This reflects the requirements for developing

other power services to deliver adequate supplies to the large urban centres, fast growing towns

and small urban centres in rural areas. The rural electrification programme is an important

element of the regional development policy as it stimulates industrial and agricultural

development as well as promotion of general welfare in the rural areas.

4.0 PREVIOUS STUDIES

In 1985 C Lotti & Associati completed and submitted their report on the “Lake Basin River

Catchment Development – River Profile Studies”. In their report, they identified five major

potential development options. Four of these form the Yala Cascade which utilises the waters of

the Yala River entirely within the basin. The fifth, dubbed the “Nandi Forest-Kano Plain

Transfer Scheme”, exploits the height difference between the Yala River basin and the Kano

Plain to the south of the Nyando escarpment and would divert flows out of the Yala River Basin.

After analysing all the five options, the report recommended the “Nandi Forest-Kano Plain

Transfer Scheme”, which offered the highest benefit/cost ratio for power generation and most

importantly, offers the additional benefit of also providing an irrigation water supply to the

potentially water deficient Kano Plain.

In 1986, a draft proposal for the detailed investigations and feasibility designs of the Nandi

Forest Multipurpose Dam for the generation of 50MW of hydroelectric power and irrigation of

16500 hectares was prepared under the United Nations DTCD Project Ken/82/001. The proposal

gave preliminary details on sugarcane production showing the increased yields that would be

realised under irrigated conditions. The current thinking in the regions development is to also

irrigate other crops such as cotton, rice and horticultural crops.

C. Lotti & Asccociati indicated that the benefit/cost ratio for power is 1.45 while the United

Nations report indicated the benefit/cost ratio for agriculture to be 1.40.

The Lake Basin Development Authority there proposes that feasibility study of the project be

conducted including detailed designs and the project be implemented.

A summary of the details and estimated cost of implementing the Hydropower component of the

project are given in Tables 1&2 respectively. (Exchange Rate: 1US$ = Kshs 70.00)

5.0 PROJECT DESCRIPTION

The project comprises of a 58m high earth/rock embankment dam located in the Nandi Forest

immediately downstream of the confluence of the Remonde (Kimondi) and Sirua (Mokong)

tributaries at an elevation of 1800masl. It would impound water with a live storage capacity of

275 Million m³ and surface area extending to some 12.5 square kilometres. Diversion of about

6.6m³/sec through a 17.2 km tunnel and dropping it through 550m to an underground

powerhouse at the foot of the Nyando escarpment will generate 50MW of electric power. The

tail waters will be discharged through a free flowing tailrace tunnel into the Great Oroba River at

elevation 1280masl. These waters can be used to irrigate about 16,000-17,000 hectares in the

Miwani and Chemelil areas of the Nyanza region.

The United Nations report, proposed changing the type of dam from earth/rock embankment to a

straight gravity concrete one incorporating a spillway, which is simpler and cheaper to construct.

It also proposed an increase of the height of the dam by another 4.5m to obtain 50x106 m³ of

additional storage thereby giving an enhanced yield of 7.0m³/sec with a corresponding increase

in power generation.

5.1 Project Area

The hydropower project is located in the Yala River basin while the irrigation project is located

in the Kano Plains. The Yala River traverses the three provinces of the Lake Basin region

namely: Rift Valley Province, Western Province and Nyanza Province. The Remonde tributary

originates from the swamp north of Kapsabet while the Sirua tributary is from the Nandi Hills.

The river flows for a distance of 212 km before draining into Lake Victoria through Yala

Swamp. It has a gross catchment of 3262 km2 with an average annual flow of 30 m³/sec. The

Nandi Forest Dam is located at the confluence of Remonde and Sirua tributaries.

The Yala River boasts a well-watered catchment particularly in the middle reaches, which are

characterised by extensive indigenous forests in the Kakamega area. Sharp changes in relief

associated with the North-South trending Nandi escarpment, the Yala Falls and the Nyando

escarpment to the South give rise to substantial hydropower potential.

The project dam site is located in Tinderet Division of Nandi District. The district can be

divided into five main features: the Rolling Hills to the west; the Kapsabet Plateau (an extension

of the Uasin Gishu); the weeded highlands and foothills of Tinderet volcanic mass in the South-

East; the Krugwal Swamp in Baraton – Chepteret area and the dissected Nyando Escarpment to

the South. In general the district lies between altitudes ranging between 1300 m and 2500 m

above sea level.

5.2 Climate

The district enjoys a cool and moderately wet climate with rainfall ranging between 1,200 mm

and 2000 mm per annum in the upper areas where the dam would be situated. In the lower areas

where irrigation is proposed the rainfall is below 10000 mm annually and is poorly distributed.

The mean temperatures of between 18ºC and 22ºC which occur during the rainy season whereas

the higher temperatures averaging 23ºC are recorded during the drier months of December and

January

9

5.3 Topography

The topography of most of the district where the dam will be constructed is favourable for the

growth of natural forests, which form the watershed of the major rivers namely, Kipkaren, Clare,

Onyonkie, Kimandi, Kurgwal, Kabuitie, Mokong, Yala, Kapchorwa and Amapngetuny. Some of

the rivers, especially in Tinderet Division have several falls, which can be harnessed for HEP

generation. The rugged topography coupled with steep slopes hinders the full exploitation of the

land.

5.4 Hydrology

The upper reach of the Yala River above Nandi forest which drains about 1350 km² has a mean

annual yield of approximately 10 m³/sec flows at an elevation of approximately 1800m.a.s.l

compared with the average lowland elevation of 1200m.a.s.l

Flow records at 1FE2, which is downstream of the dam site, are shown on Table 3.

6.0 OBJECTIVES

6.1 Energy

Under the Rural Electrification Programme, the main objective of the Government is to provide

electricity to as many parts of the country as possible and reduce the demand on wood fuel and

Kerosene for industry. The objectives of this project are to: -

Increase the supply of energy in the region and for the Nation.

Lessen the country’s dependency on imported energy

Harness the energy resources in the region

Stimulate industrial development in the region

reduce demand on wood fuel and conserve forests

Alleviate poverty in the region and raise the standards of living.

10

Encourage the development of agro-businesses and agricultural processing plants.

6.2 Irrigation

And since the tailrace water will be emptied into the Oroba river, the first component of the

irrigation potential will for rice and cotton for large parts of the Kano plain. This irrigation will

also be used for horticulture within the region. Already patches of rice irrigation are on going in

patches of the area that are able to use the inadequate water of rhe Oroba River.

This potential irrigation area also covers parts of the Nyanza Sugar Belt, which constitute part of

the 10,000 ha envisaged for irrigation in the zones around Miwaniand Chemelil In this area,

sugarcane yields average 35 ton/hectare under rain fed conditions. However, these yields can be

improved up to an average of 80 ton/hectare under irrigated conditions.

The Government objectives in the sugar sector are:

Attain self-sufficiency in sugar and sugar products

Create employment

Improve socio-economic well-being of the rural population thereby curbing rural-urban

migration.

Save on foreign exchange.

Towards attainment of these objectives, the Kenya Sugar Board is working on strategies aimed

towards; -

Sugarcane irrigation development and expansion

Increasing sugarcane production and productivity.

Capacity expansion and improved production technologies

Reduction of overall production cost.

7.0 SCOPE OF WORK

The Nandi Forest Dam has the potential of generating 50MW of hydroelectric power and

irrigating a gross area of 16,500 hectares in the Kano Plains are as well as supplying water to the

towns after the dam including Kisumu and other towns in the area.

The scope of work comprises:

The collection and analysis of all relevant data and carrying out detailed studies to

determine the technical and economic feasibility as well as social and environmental

acceptability of the Nandi Forest-Kano Plain transfer project. The accepted alternative

will be advanced to implementation level with emphasis on the optimum development of

the power potential, irrigation, while other benefits will include water supply to the

surrounding dam area as a priority and possibly to Kisumu.

The study will make use of the earlier studies and where appropriate, will recommend

new alternatives, which would lead to an optimal development of the river potential.

The development will envisage the conservation of the upper catchment of the river and

practices that will improve its management.

11

This scope will broadly comprise:

Preparation of the project (Exploratory and Planning)

Provide review of the alternatives that exist for river regulation and hydro-power

development at Nandi Forest Dam or elsewhere on the Yala River, thereby demonstrating

that the selection of Nandi Forest as a site for river regulation is optimal for hydro-power,

down stream irrigation development, water supply, catchment conservation and flood

alleviation in the lower reaches of the Yala River.

Field investigations shall be carried out in sufficient detail not only to allow for

international project appraisal but also to allow for the subsequent preparation of tender

designs and tender documentation for the implementation stage.
