Peru Amazon, February 04, 2011 - The foreseeable impacts of the hydroelectric generating alarm Inambari their potential social, environmental and biodiversity, as released this week in various media.
The weekly "Hildebrandt to his guns" played in its Friday edition February 4, an article published on February 2 in the daily El Pais, Spain, in which he states that the project's environmental impact will be devastating.
Dam "will block the passage of fish, insects and animals, altering the water regime Inambari River, which will cause disruption of biological cycles of aquatic flora and fauna, with involvement of the Amazonian fish reproduction, blocking roads migration "indicates weekly. Among the ecology
affected are 139 plant species (trees, shrubs, herbs), 36 species of amphibians, 14 species of reptiles, 193 species of birds, 57 species of mammals and 73 species of fish, including 10 types of migratory catfish.
The project aims to produce 2,200 megawatts of power, twice the English-largest dam that 75 percent would be to supply Brazil, which, unlike Peru, is growing energy deficiency.
The process of dam construction will also compound the effects of climate change by casting more than 69 million dioxide Toned carbon.
also undertakes to move people from 60 centers in the departments of Cusco, Puno and Madre de Dios, dam more than 100 km of new waterway south, and cause damage to adjacent Bahuaja Sonene, one of the areas of greatest biodiversity in the world.
Inambari unknown resources
Unlike those who say the river is Inambari poor fishing resources yesterday, Thursday 3 February, presented the book: "The Inambari River basin. Aquatic environments, biodiversity and dams. "
A 2000 meters observe small drops Tucuri water in the creek, basin of the San Gaban. P. 17 of the book cited
The publication issued by Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) shows generous green areas, aquatic habitats, fish diversity and human impacts on aquatic ecosystems Inambari River.
presents the aquatic environments, including wetlands and aquatic fauna, and intends to address adequately the potential impacts of the hydroelectric project Inambari.
is a publication of 70 pages with numerous illustrations of Inambari very little known, and which argues the need for critical studies of environmental impact before issuing a license to hydropower.
The authors recommend defining a period of two years for an environmental impact study to assess the ecological processes and watershed environmental services.
also define critical data to prevent potential extinction process of migrating fish in the headers and conduct surveys on a sufficient scale to identify real migration and diversity of fish in the basin.
The book was written by Michael Goulding, Ronaldo Barthem, Carlos Cañas, Max Hidalgo and Hernán Ortega. The main photographs correspond to André Bärtschi.
Actions against the project
In a telephone conversation with the Peruvian Center for Social Studies (CEPES), the indigenous community Tutacano Alfredo Quispe, secretary of the Front for the Defence of the Interests of the Province of Carabaya, Puno, confirmed the strong opposition of the settlers with hydroelectric power.
announced that next week will define an indefinite strike, after the celebrations for the anniversary of the province, with the participation of the authorities of the province Carabaya, peasant patrols provincial and district level.
other hand, denied the alleged withdrawal of the company Egasur Inambari basin to the Arequipa region what he called a government ploy to demobilize the population affected.
Alfredo Quispe, said the total rejection of the population Carabaya Emergency Decree No. 001-2011 which exempts companies from the obligation to deliver certificates of environmental impact studies and called for their speedy repeal.
stated that the decree issued by the executive branch has "name" and try to expedite the project Inambari bypassing environmental certifications. ---
