7 Flood Control Plan for the Ara river System The flood control plan for the Ara River system aims to reduce the rate of discharge from 14,800 m 3 /sec., which is the figure at the Iwabuchi reference point where a flood will occur once every 200 years, 7,000 m 3 /sec. using the upstream dams, the Ara River control reservoirs and improving the course of the river. Takizawa Dam and Urayama Dam are playing an important part of the plan.

22 Cost Reduction Efforts The operators of the Takizawa Dam actively carry out the following measures to reduce the construction cost as follows: Reduce the excavation muck for construction of the dam body and make effective use of the muck as fill materials. Slope protection work Recycling as fill materials Muck generated from excavation of the dam body is put to effective use as the protective fill material. Cost reduction is achieved by using low-quality materials as Fill aggregate for dam concrete. Muck generated from excavation of the tunnel is put to effective use as aggregate for dam concrete. CSG fill Excavation slope is made softer to reduce the amount of slope River bed Unitized revetment work protection. Conduit work: pressure-resistant polyethylene ribbed pipe Felled trees and roots are incinerated at charcoal burners to turn them into charcoal Standard products. section view of the protection embankment Effective value engineering disposals are adopted for erection in bridge construction.

23 Cost Reduction Efforts Active Use of Low-quality Aggregate Helps Reduce Construction Cost Waste rock Reduction in the amount of earth to be discarded Waste rock Rock recycled as dam concrete aggregate Excavation base Excavation base Rock recycled as dam concrete aggregate Rise in the excavation base (reduction in the amount of quarry to be excavated) Quality High quality Low quality Rock class CH class CM class CL class Conventional approach Excavate Excavate Dispose Dispose Dispose This project Excavate Excavate Excavate Excavate Dispose Excavation and selection of rock at the quarry

24 Ongoing Investigation of Raptor Habitat The basic idea about environmental preservation with respect to construction of the Takizawa Dam is minimization of the impact on the environment. Coexistence with the natural environment is another important factor for the dam. Investigation is ongoing for the habitat of fauna and flora in the area to be ponded and its neighboring area. Ecological Survey of Raptors The habitat investigation of raptors, including the Hodgson's hawk eagle, has been conducted since Investigation, including analysis, is based on the state-of-the-art knowledge with the assistance of specialists, and appropriate preservation measures are being taken based on the investigation results under the directions of the specialists. When any falcon is confirmed to be breeding, appropriate preservation measures are taken, including suspension of construction of an alternative road as required. Hodgson's hawk eagle: March to June 1997 Goshawk: April to July 2000 May to July 2001 Hodgson's hawk eagle: February 2002 to Mainichi Shimbun, dated Feb. 23, 2002 Young goshawk about to leave the nest

25 Environmental Preservation Efforts The Takizawa Dam operators transplant ferns and trees that grow in the construction area to preserve the ecological harmony of the neighborhood of the dam site as part of their efforts to preserve the environment. They also pick up seeds of plants growing in the reservoir area and grow and plant them around the dam reservoir. On April 26, 2003, the Development of the Green Hometown event was held, in which some 300 elementary school students from around Chichibu city collected seeds of trees that grew in the reservoir area (Japanese mallotus, zelkova tree, aralia elata, carpinus tschonoskii, and meliosma myriantha) and planted them in the neighborhood in a cooperative manner with the help of two NPOs, Arakawa Gakusha Chichibu and Morino-Kyoryoku.

28 Problems of the Urayama Dam 1. Lengthening of Water Turbidity Period The water of the reservoir tends to stay turbid for a long time after the occurrence of a large flood. As the water turbidity period lengthens, various problems occur, such as the difficulty of downstream water users to take water and the worsening quality of the river environment. After floo od e flood Before

29 Problems of the Urayama Dam 2.Use of the Former Quarry Site and Protection ti of Birds of Prey Use of the former quarry site (Natureland Urayama) and protection of the Hodgson's Use of the former quarry site (Natureland Urayama) and protection of the Hodgson s hawk eagle, which lives in the neighborhood
