Pertinently, NEEPCO singed the requisite MoA with the state government in March 2010. As per the MoA, NEEPCO will, first, undertake necessary survey and investigation (S&I) activities to prepare the detailed project reports (DPR) for the three projects. Subsequently, the utility will be entitled to develop these hydel ventures, subject to ascertaining the techno-economic viability for the projects, to be set-up in the eastern and south-eastern parts of the state. The power firm is due to bear the expenses for carrying out the S&I work for the preparation of DPR for the three HEPs. To note, NEEPCO has already been entrusted with the responsibility of implementing the 60 MW Turial HEP in this north-eastern state, the development of which has been stalled for more than six years now, on account of the problems relating to law and order situation in the locality and acquisition of required land areas.
