Swarnamukhi originates from Nallamalai ghats in (M) and runs through Chandragiri, tirupathi, Renigunta, Yerpedu and Srikalahasthi in Chittoor District. Swarnamukhi anicut system was constructed in the year 1956 at a cost of Rs 1932.00 lakhs.

The anicut has a main canal (Chembedu canal from head regulator) for a length of 15.4 km, covering 8.40km in Srikalahasthi and Thottambedu mandals and 7.00km in Nellore District. There is no left canal to this anicut. The project was constructed for providing irrigation facilities to an extent of 10,200 Acres duly feeding 46 tanks in 25villages of Buchinaidu kandriga, Thottambedu of Chittoor District and Pellakur mandal of Nellore district.

3. Krishnapuram Project

http://irrigationap.cgg.gov.in/wrd/getDistricts 18/31 10/31/2018 District Irrigation Profiles

Preamble

The Krishnapuram Project was Constructed across LAVA River near Krishnapuram Village in Karvetinagaram Mandal of Chittoor District in 1981 to provide Irrigation facilities to the ayacut to an extent of 6125 Acres.

Two Irrigation Canals i.e., left main canal of 7.00 KM in length and right side canal of length 3.23 KM were excavated and lined for providing irrigation facilities to the ayacut through the system tanks and also through the channels in direct pertaining to the villages both in & S.R. Puram mandals of Chittoor District.

The total length of distributaries under left side and right side is 9.50 Kms and 6.90 Kms respectively, all the distributaries were lined except Chillamakulapalle distributary. Total length of field channels under Krishnapuram Reservoir Project: 65.50 KMs.Length executed to the end of 03/1990: 65.50 KMs. Total Ayacut Contemplated under Krishnapuram Project: 6125 Acres. There are 16 Nos of system tanks under Krishnapuram Project. Out of which 10 tanks were situated on right side and 6 tanks are situated on left side. The total ayacut served under tanks is 498 Acres Wet.

Modernisation Proposals

It is very much essential to Modernize entire canal system duly providing cc side walls with bed lining to the canals and carrying restoration works to the CM & CD Works under this project. Proposals (Estimates) costing about Rs. 275.00 Lakhs for modernization of project and canal system were submitted and works of Worth Rs. 70 Lakhs are executed with estimate rates of 2006-07 SSR. As funds are not released regularly, the works have been stopped midway in incomplete state.

At Present an ayacut of 1500 Acres is only irrigated by the waters of Krishnapuram Reservoir as against the 6125 Acres because the Canal distribution is in dilapidated state. By reinstating the canal and distributory system including system tanks.

The intended ayacut under the Krishnapuram Reservoir will be improved.The weaker section,SC&ST Ayacutdars/ Farmers of the villages K.P.Agraharam, Thungamitta Eguva and Diguva http://irrigationap.cgg.gov.in/wrd/getDistricts 19/31 10/31/2018 District Irrigation Profiles Kunchevari palli, Lakshmipuram, Sekuvaripalli, Eguva and DiguvaMudikuppam, Chokkamadugu ,Battuvaripalli and Katherapalli have irrigated land and Irrigation potential can be improved if the grants released with external funding bodies like JICA or ABIP.
