35 Pre 1954 Democratic Republic of Congo Lake Albert U G A N D A Murchison Falls National Park Nile Vic to ria Lake Kyoga M No development on Nile. Jinja is fishing harbour and regional administrative centre. No extensive heavy industry. Little tourism. Local environment impacted only by low level subsistance agriculture and fishing. Ripon Falls provides hydrological control between Lake Victoria and the Nile. Railway bridge constructed over the Nile at Jinja. Murchison Falls National Park established in V icto ria N ile UGANDA Kampala Jinja Ripon Falls Tororo Kenya A lbert Nile Arua A lbert Lake Albert Nile 1954 Owen Falls (Nalubaale) Democratic Republic of Congo Nile Vic to ria Entebbe Kitgum Lake Kyoga Lake Victoria U G A N D A Gulu Murchison Falls National Park Kotido Moroto Nalubaale (formerly Owen Falls Dam) constructed just downstream of Ripon Falls with flooding between Owen Falls and Ripon Falls. With the blasting of Ripon Falls and reliable source of power, Jinja becomes the industrial hub of Uganda, Dam provides a roadway across the river. Barrier to fish movement between Lake Victoria and Victoria Nile created by Nalubaale. A period of above average rainfall results in historically high lake levels. Water released from Nalubaale in accordance with the "Agreed Curve" which mimics natural flows. At high lake levels water in excess of that needed for power generation spilled. UGANDA V icto ria N ile Jinja Owen Falls (Nalubaale) Tororo Kampala Kenya A lbert Nile Entebbe Arua Masaka Lake Victoria U G A N D A Bushenyi Gulu 2001 Mbarara Owen Falls Extension (Kiira) Murchison Falls National Park Democratic Republic of Congo A lbert Lake Albert Nile UGANDA Nile Vic to ria Kitgum Lake Kyoga V icto ria N ile Lake Victoria Jinja Kotido Owen Falls (Nalubaale) Owen Falls Extension (Kiira) Tororo Moroto Kiira (formerly Owen Falls Extension) constructed in parallel to Nalubaale to increase peak generating capacity. No increased impoundment. No impacts on growing tourism industry based around Bujagali and other rapids downstream. From 2001 to 2006 water released from combined operation of Nalubaale and Kiira exceeds the Agreed Curve, contributing to lower water levels in Lake Victoria to 2006 low lake levels force reduced operation or Nalubaale and Kiira, resulting in severe load shedding emergency thermal generators constructed to alleviate load shedding. Subsequently water releases expected to be to the Agreed Curve. Some limited resettlement required to accommodate canal.

(8 km) Some islands submerged and some people displaced. (In 2001) Increased power to Ugandan grid resulting in improved power stability and developmental benefits, the emergency thermal generators are shut down. Considerable benefits to local communities through jobs and implementation of various social action plans Changes to tourism especially white water rafting due to submergence of rapids between Dumbbell Island and Nalubaale/Kiira operations shift further downstream. Operation of Bujagali Dam reuses the same water released from Nalubaale and Kiira, allowing twice the amount of power to be generated from the same amount of water released. Downstream flows continue to be controlled by Nalubaale and Kiira, with no or minimal influence from Bujagali. Focus of rafting shifts to Kalagala, tourism expands, Kalagala area protected by government of Uganda.

No Impoundment or river blockage due to project design. Downstream flows continue to be controlled by Nalubaale and Kiira.
