Kolab Dam is a gravity dam situated near Jeypore town in Koraput of Odisha,India on Kolab river which is tributary of Godavari river.[2]
Characteristics
Kolab Dam is 630.50 m (2,068.6 ft) in length and 54.50 m (179 ft) in height.The volume content is 1,084 km3 (260 cu mi) and gross storage capacity is 35,380.00 km3 (8,488.11 cu mi). The majestic Kolab Reservoir generating Hydro Electric Power sitting at an altitude of about 914.4 m (3,000 ft) above sea level on river Kolab,a tributary of Godvari river.
History
A possible idea of " A project of Kolab dam" were first come during the British Rule when Koraput district was a part of Madras presidency.After Indepence,An investigation was taken place by Govt. of Odisha in 1961.Finally the project was approved by the planning commision after several proposals of Govt. of Odisha in 1976 and the project was completed in 1993.
Upper Kolab Hydro Electric Project
This Project is utilising the water potential of river 'KOLAB'a tributary of river Godavari. The Project has got a Potential of producing 95 MW of firm power with a generation of 832.2 million units and power is fed to the general grid at the jeypore sub-station.It is a multipurpose project aimed at Generation of 95MW(firm) Hydro Electric Power, providing irrigation facilities to 47,985 H.A. by lift canal irrigation and suppling drinking water to Damonjodi, Koraput,sunabeda and Jeypore town.
Tourism
The place is highly admired for its scenic beauty, attracting people for weekend picnic and boating. It is 20 Kms away from Koraput.
