Programmes /Schemes being implemented under Chief Engineer, Irrigation and Administration

Minor Irrigation Schemes Minor Irrigation schemes are divided into Class-I and Class-II depending on the ayacut served. Schemes serving above 50 Ha up to 2000 Ha are classified as MI Class-I. Works which can serve below 50 Ha come under MI Class II Scheme. Lift irrigation schemes are also Minor irrigation schemes serving at least 40Ha.This year Harithakeralam Schemes were also included under MI class I ,MI class II and Renovation of Tanks and ponds.

MI Class-I Schemes Minor works like improvements to tanks and rivulet, construction of check , sluices, regulators, bunds, vented crossbars, salt water barriers, layout of channels and drainage structures etc are usually undertaken under MI Class-I schemes. Construction of new water retaining / conservation Structures included under Harithakeralam

MI Class II Schemes Minor irrigation works including construction of vented cross bars, canals, improvements to natural drains etc are taken up under this scheme. Construction of Check /small storage structure, renovation of ponds in rain shadow area in , especially in Kollamkode in Chittur block, water shed intervention including construction of VCB, check dams etc. under Harithakeralam

Lift Irrigation Schemes Lifting of water is required for irrigating fertile land at a higher elevation where gravity flow of stored water is not possible. Although mechanical lifting is required, these schemes are very useful and serve the marginal farmers of the State.

Renovation of Ponds and Tanks One of the strategies identified for self sufficiency in food security is to provide special focus for revival, conservation and up-gradation of local

Performance Budget 2017-18 10 Water Resources Department

water resources and traditional system of water management for augmenting food crop production. Tanks have been the main source of irrigation in many parts of Kerala for centuries. At present ponds and tanks in Kerala do not qualify for central assistance as per Government norms. Due to shortage of rainfall and possibility of drought expected in future. Government also given special attention for the renovation of ponds in the state. Works such as renovation of ponds and linking of large ponds with Irrigation canal is included under Harithakeralam project. Flood Management Flood control is a major activity under irrigation Department due to the peculiar terrain of the State. The main works for flood control include flood bunds on the banks of the major rivers to bring the flood waters within the river regime thereby reducing to destruction to life and property. Strengthening of river sides by retaining walls is highly essential in KeralaÊs topographical condition. All the rivers flow through narrow gorges and the average heights of the sides of rivers is about 6 to 12m in the midlands and coastal regions. The top soil in these regions are lateritic and the bottom layer is a mixture of laterite sand and clay. During the monsoon months due to the high velocity and under currents, the sides of rivers in the bottom depths to a height of about 1.5m gets washed off due to the sandy nature and in the subsequent monsoon, the top soil collapses. Therefore, protection by different methods is essential in the bottom layer. River training works, construction of flood banks et are works taken up under flood management programme. Rehabilitation of LI Scheme The Lift Irrigation Schemes involves lifting water by mechanical means to irrigate land at high elevation. Schemes with total ayacut of 42850 Ha is under the control of Irrigation Department. 209 Schemes were taken up for the renovation under Malabar Irrigation package. If this scheme is implemented in full stature will be more beneficial to the local farmers than other major projects.

MI Class I NABARD NABARD has been providing loan assistance for Irrigation Works under Rural Infrastructure Development Fund for implementing ongoing

MI Projects in Cauvery basins Water allocation by the Cauvery Tribunal to the state is 30 TMC in 2007. The award covers 21 TMC in Kabani, 6 TMC in Bhavani and 3 TMC in Pambar basin in the state. Revival of rivers through construction of check dams and other measures is a priority area. A number of small streams are mapped in the hilly areas for development. Comprehensive development of small streams, construction of check dams, Rehabilitation of ponds etc. in Kabani & Pambar Basin Construction of water structure, construction and rehabilitation of ponds, development of rain shadow regions in Idukki are the project aimed under the scheme.

Bhavani Basin Under Bhavani basin, construction of check dams is in Attappady valley, an under Developed tribal area in Palakkad District is envisaged. The topography of Bhavani sub basin is suitable for implementation of MI projects such as check dams and LI Schemes which can sustain ground water recharge, drinking water supply and irrigation facilities in Attapady. An outlay of 500.00 lakh is set apart for implementing the minor irrigation projects in Bhavani basin. The amount provided is for construction of ponds, small water storage structures covering check dams and lift irrigation schemes benefitting the tribal areas. PMKSY (Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchayi Yojana) Government of India has introduced PMKSY to achieve convergence of investment in Irrigation at field level to expand area under assured Irrigation. The funding of this core scheme will be shared in the ratio 60 : 40 between centre and the state. The Scheme envisions to increase the grass Irrigated area by bridging the gap between Irrigation potential and utilization by means of strengthening the water distribution network and enhancing water use efficiency and management. In Kerala, Agriculture Department is the nodal agency for implementation of PMKSY. Irrigation Department plays a pivotal role in preparing the District Irrigation plan for each District. Proper implementation of DIPs

Performance Budget 2017-18 12 Water Resources Department

will increase the net irrigated area in the state. This will also enhances the irrigation efficiency resulting in increase in water security, food security thereby meeting the environmental needs for the sustainable development of the state.

Coastal Zone Management Out of the total 585.60 km of coastal line of Kerala, the length which has been identified, by the directorate of Central Water Commission and coastal erosion studies, as vulnerable to erosion and requires protection in 478 km. The State of Kerala with its very high density of population, has the maximum concentration of population in coastal zone. The coastline of Kerala is subjected to severe erosion in a major portion of its length during the monsoon seasons, when the sea becomes rough due to consistent attack of waves. Erosion is very severe in the coastal areas during the southwest monsoon period. During the monsoon seasons, the high waves cause overflow and flooding of the low lying backshore lands all along the coast, resulting in considerable loss of life and property. Kerala has taken up coastal protection works from the early sixties using the design developed by U.S Corps of Engineers. Later, a new design proposed by CWPRS, Pune was adopted. Latest design of seawall is from IIT, Madras. As such, works such as construction of new sea-wall, reformation of sea-wall and construction of gryones are being carried out to protect the coastal area from erosion and to protect the life and property of people. Coastal protection using modern technologies like geo- textiles polyethylene fabrics/sheets and nourishment of for share with biometrical reformation of existing structures are included in this Scheme

Inland Water Ways The state of Kerala, with numerous backwaters, is one of the States in India, where waterways can be successfully used for commercial Inland water transport. Inland Navigation was the principal mode of transportation in the region till the middle of twentieth century. With the modern fast moving road and rail transportation system the navigation route and Canal system remained ignored for the past fifty years.

Performance Budget 2017-18 13 Water Resources Department

Government of Kerala has undertaken the improvements of West - Coast Canal to make it fully navigable as per State Waterway standards. West Cost canal connect Neeleswaram in the north to in the south, and is about 590 km, which included 328 KM of national water way III. Director, INDT, Kollam. functioning under CE I &A in charge of the inland water transport works, it mainly aims to renovate the existing canals and construct new canals wherever no waterway exists, renovation / re construct structures to make water way navigable. Once the entire length becomes navigable, it has to be converted in to National waterway standards, by providing all infrastructural facilities, such as terminals, boat jetties, navigational aid, warehouses etc.

Salt Exclusion works One of the important problems faced by the State is salinity intrusion. Lowering of the river beds due to unchecked sand mining has accelerated this problem. Now, salinity is being experienced up to 30Km into the upstream length of rivers from the sea mouth. Department has started addressing this problem by the construction of regulators to check salinity intrusion. This problem is a threat to many drinking water schemes and irrigation schemes in the State.

Interstate water sharing

Kerala has 3 East flowing rivers that originate from the State and flow through the neighbouring States. We also share water from Irrigation projects with neighbouring states. An Interstate wing functions in the Irrigation Design & Research Board, Thiruvananthapuram. The Chief Engineer, ISW is in charge of this Interstate wing of IDRB. Under the Chief Engineer, Joint Director ( Dam Safety and ISW ) with two Deputy Directors and six Asst. Directors deals with all works related to Interstate waters. There are disputes which are under the consideration of the courts. These are continuously monitored and acted upon by the Department to protect the interests of the State. The Inter State Water Wing deals with the Interstate water sharing aspects / cases in various courts and all other allied matters of Parambikulam Aliyar Project System (a group of 9 dams and 2 weirs);

Mullaperiyar Dam; Pamba Achenkovil Vaippar link project; Siruvani Drinking Water Supply project; Walayar Irrigation Project; Kanyamadagu Dam; Chittar Pattanamkal project ; Irrigation Project ; Cauvery Water Dispute and Unauthorized diversion of the state water resources by other states.

Specialised Training Programme for officers The Department is imparting training for the technical personnel in planning and monitoring, preparation of designs and execution, in institutions like IITs, Management Institutions. In addition to technical personnel, training to other officers under Administrative, Finance wing etc. are also being imparted. Induction Training to newly recruited AEÂs, OverseersÂs and Clerk are being imparted regularly.

Modernization of e-Governance of offices under Irrigation Department The main focus is primarily on exploiting all the facets of information and communication technology to enhance the transparency, efficiency, effectiveness and promptness in service delivery to citizens thereby simplifying and improving all aspects of governance in the Department. Also as part of capacity /buildings/training was given to the Department officials on Quantum GIS using in house trainers.

Specialised Training Programme Almost 596 officers has been trained under this scheme in 2015- 16. Out of the total outlay of Rs.25 Lakh, an amount of Rs.5.79 Lakh has been expended and an amount of 10.31 Lakh was expended for the same outlay in 2016-17. Short-fall occurred as most of the trainings were conducted at Government-aided institutions like IMG, CWRDM. As such, costs of the trainings were minimum. Sometimes, there occurs delay in obtaining sanctions from Government for trainings conducted outside the State. This also reflects in overall financial performance. However, considering the demand in improving technical competence, future trainings will have to be imparted through State Govt/Central Govt Institutes for which expenses will be higher. A graphical representation of the same is detailed below:

In addition to the increasing irrigation facilities, these projects have helped the overall development of the region to a great extend by way of improving infrastructure, employment opportunities and availability of drinking water. The ongoing projects under the control of this office are Karapuzha Project, Banasura Sagar Project and Chammravattom Project.

KARAPUZHA IRRIGATION PROJECT

Karapuzha Irrigation Project is located in the Karapuzha stream of Wayanad District. The Karapuzha stream is east flowing which joins the river, which is a tributary of the river Kabini. joins the inter - state river Cauvery which flows through 3 states - Kerala, and and the Union territory of Pondicherry. Catchment area of Karapuzha river up to dam site is 62 Sq.Km. and lies entirely in the state of Kerala.

Karapuzha Irrigation Project envisages construction of an earthen dam with concrete spillway across Karapuzha river at Vazhavatta in Taluk of Wayanad District for providing irrigation to an area of 5600 Ha with an ultimate irrigation potential of 8721 Ha in Vythiri, S.Bathery and Taluk of Wayanad District through a net work of canal system. The reservoir has a gross storage capacity of 76.50 Mm3 (2.70 TMC) and live storage capacity of 72 Mm3 water. As per Cauvery Water

REVIEW OF PAST PERFORMANCE

Although healthy targets for physical and financial achievements were set by the Division offices for implementation of Banasurasagar and Karapuzha irrigation projects, two major bottlenecks have prevented the Department from achieving them. First is the delay in taking possession of the land. The land acquisition process is time-consuming and this coupled with the manpower issues in the LA TahsildarÊs office, delays the acquisition of land and hence execution of works.

In the view to speed up the land acquisition process, a proposal was submitted to Government vide letter no. WP3/2700/06 dated 19.04.2017 to grant permission to acquire the land by direct purchase through negotiation.

Karapuzha Irrigation Project has been included in PMKSY 99 Prioritised projects (Priority- 2) and detailed project report has been submitted to Government for approval.

A Technical Committee has been constituted for evaluating four ongoing project which includes Karapuzha Irrigation Project and Banasura Sagar Project. Committee members visited both the projects on 19.08.2017 and 20.08.2017. It is expected that the report will be submitted to Government soon.

Objectives and Functions:- The main activity of the Project II Wing of the Irrigation Department includes planning, designing execution and monitoring of the major and medium irrigation projects and maintenance of commissioned projects. The main projects under execution are as follows.

1) Muvattuppuzha Valley Irrigation Project :- The Muvattupuzha Valley Irrigation Project, one of the major projects in Kerala envisages the utilization of the tailrace discharge from the Moolamattom Power House of the Idukki Hydro-Electric Project and the dependable runoff from the catchments of Thodupuzha River. It comprises of an earth cum masonry dam at Malankara in river Thodupuzha, a tributary of Muvattupuzha River and right bank and left bank canal systems to irrigate a cultivable command area of 18173 ha (35619 ha. gross), in Idukki, Ernakulam and Kottayam Districts. In addition to these, the project envisages to supplement canal water for drinking water supply schemes, industrial benefit to the Hindustan News Print Factory, generation of hydel power at the toe of the dam with an installed capacity of 10.5 M.W and other indirect benefits to Ernakulam, Idukki and Kottayam Districts. The power production commenced from 9/2005 onwards. The project was partially commissioned in 1994 and as the completed canal net work will be charged during the summer season, the ground water level in the entire area will be much benefited, solving drinking water problem without incurring any additional expenditure. The tail end of Kurumulloor MD and Kuravilangadu MD discharge in to Pennar thodu and River respectively. Through this, the vast low level paddy fields in can also be made cultivable through its desalination and the drinking water problems in summer can be avoided.

Dam and connected works are completed. Left bank main canal and right banks main canal are completed to its full length. 37-100km and 28.337km respectively. Branch canal works for 54.645km are completed out of 57.154km. Distributories are completed up to 90%. Irrigation potential upto 31-3-2017 is 32608 Ha and expenditure up to 31-3-2018

is Rs.957.15 Cr. Cost as per DSR 2014 is Rs.945 Cr. Budget for 2017- 18 is Rs. 40.61 Cr. The project is proposed to be completed by March 2018.

2) Idamalyar Irrigation Project:-

The Idamalayar Irrigation Project is mainly aiming for irrigating vast cultivable land lying in Periyar Basin on right side of Periyar River in Aluva and Paravur Taluks of and Mukundapuram Taluk of Thrissur District. It also envisages extension of irrigation on left and right bank of . Now water distribution through Chalakudy left bank and right bank canals under CRDS are being done through Thumburmuzhy weir across Chalakudy river. After completing Idamalayar Irrigation Project, water from barrage will be benefitted to Main canal, Low Level Canal and Chalakudy left Bank canal (under CRDS) through connecting Link Canal and hence water from Thumburmuzhi weir will be benefitting exclusively for Chalakudy Right Bank Canal. The total additional ayacut for irrigation aimed at by the implementation of the Project using the water of Periyar and Chalakudy Rivers is 14394 hectares. The main source of water is the of Kerala State Electricity Board which is already completed and the run off from the free catchment upstream of Bhoothathankettu barrage. The Project started in 1981 with approved cost of Rs. 17 crores. The project was approved by State Government for Rs. 107 crores as per 1992 Schedule of Rates. The expenditure up to 31/03/2018 is Rs.459 Crores.

Private Ltd. The site was handed over to the contractor on 22.07.2014 and the work has been started.

Earth work excavation and rock blasting were carried out for the concrete portion of the dam as per the agreement. Meanwhile the geologists from G.S.I inspected the site and recommended to conduct permeability test also. On their visit, they suggested for further excavation as the rock surface was not suitable for foundation of the dam. While examining the rock strata certain foliation, fault, joint etc were met with, which resulted in deepening the strata for sound foundation. During the course of execution, quantities of a number of items varied considerably from the sanctioned estimate and also led to the formation of revised estimate.

At present, blasting is completed up to the recommended level of the geologist. TOC expired on 21.07.2016. As the depth of excavation increased, revised design was necessitated and hence the estimate. The Revised Estimate amounting to 45.90 crores was submitted based on revised design for Government approval.

For resuming the work, the Revised estimate is to be sanctioned and Time of completion has to be extended. An amount of Rs. 7 Crores is set apart in 2018-19 budget. Discussions are going at Government level regarding rate enhancement, sanction of revised estimate etc.

The work can be resumed soon after getting sanction for Revised estimate. It is expected that 50% of work can be completed during the financial year 2018-19.

There is an out lay of Rs. 2 Crores for Pambar basin Projects other than Pattissery Dam under R.I.D.F. The various schemes proposed for this include Thalayar scheme and Vattavada scheme.

Thalayar Scheme

The state share for this scheme is 0.78 TMC and proposals under this schemes are

1. Upper Chattamunnar Dam

Performance Budget 2017-18 57 Water Resources Department

2. Lower Chattamunnar Dam

3. Thalayar Dam

4. Marayoor Tribal colony

5. Eravikulam

As the submergible area of Marayoor Tribal colony and Eravikulam Dam comes under forest land, hence preliminary investigation could not be carried out.

Preliminary investigation for remaining three dams namely Upper Chattamunnar, Lower Chattamunnar and Thalayar Dam were done. Since there is an existing Minor Irrigation scheme at Coffee store near Thalayar the following two dams only are under considerations.

PRESENT PROPOSALS

1.Upper Chattamunar Dam

The scheme is located in Devikulam Taluk in Idukki District. The site is very near to the – Udumalpetta road and about 160 M downstream of the Vaguvarai Chattamunnar estate.

2. Lower Chattamunnar Dam

The proposed Lower Chattamunnar dam site is located in the Chattamunnar Tea estate below the road bridge to Pombumalai Estate. The Munnar – Udumalpetta road passes near the site on left bank.

The land required for proposed scheme is under the lease of Thalayar Tea Company. Hence release of the land from lease agreement is necessitated.

The Detailed contour survey for both the dams have been completed. Soon after the completion of Investigation works and obtaining design and drawings from IDRB, detailed estimate and Detailed Project Report can be prepared. Construction of Dams can be done only after getting Administrative Sanction for the DPR.

Performance Budget 2017-18 58 Water Resources Department

3 .Vattavada Scheme.

The State share for this scheme is 0.52 TMC and proposals under the schemes are

1. Ottamaram Dam

2. Kottakombur Dam

3. Padagiri Dam

4. Vattavada Dam

5. Kadavary Dam

6. Kalladan Kannavai mettu Dam

Out of this, preliminary investigation of Ottamaram dam and Kottakombur dam were done. But the reservoir area for the Kottakombur dam has been declared as ÂNeelakurinji sanctuary Â. As reservoir area of remaining dams come under forest land, preliminary investigation could not be carried out. Hence the only feasible project is construction of Ottamaram dam.

Ottamaram Dam

The proposed dam can store 2.81 Mm3 of water. Once the scheme is implemented 0.0995 TMC of water can be effectively utilized to irrigate an area of 415 Ha in Vattavada village in Devikulam Taluk. The reservoir submerges 19.93 Ha which is under the possession of Revenue Department. The dam site is 4.5 Km away from Vattavada. The present site can be reached through the deviation road which passes through Chundavary Tea estate and which deviates from Munnar.- Vattavada road at 18th Mile.

The DPR can be prepared only after getting design from IDRB based on soil investigation report. The work can be executed only after obtaining Administrative sanction and Technical sanction.

Performance Budget 2017-18 59 Water Resources Department

4. Champakkad Scheme in Tribal Colony

The state share for this scheme is 0.03 TMC.

As submergible area comes under forest land, preliminary investigation could not be carried out.

4) Valley Project:- Meenachil River having a length of 78 km originates from Kurishumala and mala and flows through ,Kidangoor,,Kottayam and finally joins Vembanadu lake.Meenachil basin is located in the south of Muvattupuzha basin and north of Manimala basin. At present there are no major projects in Meenachil Basin.

Meenachil basin experiences severe water shortage during summer season. Every year a large amount of money is being spent for drinking water supply, control of salinity intrusion and for prevention of epidemics spreading with the contaminated water, apart from shortage of water for agricultural development.

The first proposal for Meenachil River Valley Project was the construction of a dam at Adukkam and it was dropped due to public protest against acquisition of land.

The second proposal was to divert surplus water from Moovattupuzha Basin to Meenachil Basin through a Tunnel. It was also temporarily dropped due to the protest of people in Muvattupuzha Basin.

Based on the decision of the expert committee vide G.O (Rt) No 712/2011/WRD dated 23/7/2011 a DPR was prepared consisting of construction of a series of Mini Dam cum Regulators, a Dam at Pazhukkakanam and construction of a modified tunnel in three different phases.

At present investigations have been done in Meenachil river and its tributaries to find out suitable locations for mini dams . Thus site at

Performance Budget 2017-18 60 Water Resources Department

Pazhukkakanam for a dam and 7 Nos of Mini Dam cum Regulators have been located as follows.

PAZHUKKAKANAM DAM

The height and length of the proposed dam is 34m & 190m respectively. It is designed as a concrete gravity type dam. The reservoir formed by the dam can store 7.96 Mm3 of water. Using this water 995 Ha of land can be irrigated in Meenachil taluk in Kottayam District. 19 Km length of canal is proposed to feed the ayacut area. 119 Ha of private land to be acquired for this project. Administrative sanction was accorded as per GO(Rt)No.832/2014/WRD dated 22/08/2014 for an amount of Rs.131crore . By the implementation of this project deficiency of drinking water in Meenachil taluk can be solved to a great extent. Also flood in Meenachil river can be controlled to a certain extent. There is a scope for generating power about 2 MW for 9 months. Since the reservoir is only about 26 Km from and is near to , there is a scope for tourism development also.

Detailed contour survey of Pazhukkakanam dam for collecting details of dam, acquisition required etc. were tendered and work started. Due to the heavy protest from the public, the work was stopped on 25.11.2014. Hence only 25 % of work was carried out and could not complete the work. Block level and District level meetings were convened for the settling the issue with the co-operation of political leaders and government officials. But not succeeded yet. These matters were reported to higher officials.

Efforts are being carried out to solve the public issue by the District Collector.

MINI DAM CUM REGULATORS

There are a few check dams in Meenachil river and its tributaries. But , the storage capacity of these check dams are very low to cater the needs of the people in this area for domestic and irrigation purposes. Hence as part of implementing the Meenachil River Valley Project, investigation have been carried out for constructing mini dam cum

Performance Budget 2017-18 61 Water Resources Department

regulators with high storage capacity. Based on this 7 nos. of mini dam cum regulators with bridge are proposed across Meenachil river and its tributaries. These mini dams can store water up to 4m height without acquiring any land.

KUTTANAD PACKAGE

Chapter- I

INTRODUCTION

The Kuttanad Wet Land System Comprising of 32 Panchayaths of , 27 panchayaths of Kottayam District and 5 Panchayaths of is predominantly agriculture belt of Kerala, where people are dependent on farming and allied activities like fishing, animal husbandry etc for livelihood. Cultivation is taken up along continuous blocks or padasekharam or polders bounded by rivers and canals. Before sowing, the flooded water is pumped out using engine pumps after the bunds are repaired. But during the monsoon and other heavy rains the flow in the canals and rivers increases, which may lead to breach of weak bund causing floods in the paddy field and result in heavy crop loss. Also the standing crops are subject to extensive damage due to salinity intrusion through the estuaries during the dry seasons. Kuttanad region and its community were facing severe agrarian distress for the last many decades owing to the above problems and due to variety of other factors. Based on the request of the Government of Kerala to address the perennial problem faced in Kuttanad, the Union Government entrusted Dr. M.S. Swaminathan Foundation, Chennai to conduct a scientific study of the region and suggest suitable measurers to mitigate agrarian distress in Kuttanad. To mitigate the agrarian distress the MSSRF recommended a variety of interventions to be implemented as a Package with a total cost of Rs. 1840 Cr. (2007 Price Level ) which was accepted by the Union Government of funding under ongoing central sector schemes out of which those related to Flood Control, Salinity Management and drainage with a total cost of 1517.90 Cr are undertaken by the Irrigation Department under the Chief Engineer Kuttanad Package, Alappuzha.

Performance Budget 2017-18 86 Water Resources Department

Functions and objectives of Department

The strategy of Management of Flood is by erection of strong bunds along the periphery of the padasekharms of Kuttanad wet land with clay obtained from deepening the channels all around and protecting the clay bund thus formed by constructing retaining wall using rubble masonery or Pile & Slab along the channel side where the existing bund is very weak. Also modernization of Barrage (TMB) which regulates saline water intrusion during dry season is also taken up for execution which includes construction of RCB at the 3rd stage replacing existing earthen bund and replacing old shutters with stainless steel shutters in the 1st& 2nd stage etc. This will contribute immensely to manage flood efficiently. A scheme for improving the efficiency to Thottappally Spillway (TSW) which diverts the excess flood water directly to the sea is also taken up for alleviating problem caused by flood in Kuttanad Region.

The Central Government while accepting the report of M.S Swaminathan foundation has reiterated that proposals made in the report shall be proposed for funding under the appropriate schemes of the concerned ministries. Accordingly all the schemes under Kuttanad package were proposed for funding under „Flood Management Programme‰

After extensive study and surveys detailed project reports were prepared & submitted to Government of India for funding under FMP. So far 4 schemes namely (1) KEL -1 –FMP – Mitigation of Floods in Group - 1, 14 Padasekharams in Kuttanad Region of Kerala (2). KEL-2 – FMP- Regulation of flood water in Kayal area -4 padashekharams and Mitigation of Flood in Group 9-5 padasekharams in Kuttanad region of Kerala, (3) KEL-III –FMP- Mitigation of flood in Kuttanad Region phase –I (Group 2- 5,7-8,8-10), 231 padasekharams (4) KEL-IV – Mitigation of flood in Onattukara region comprising of 12 water sheds have been sanctioned in 2010 and 2011 Besides 3 Projects namely „ Mitigation of flood in 397 padasekharams of Kuttanad Taluk and Mitigation of flood in 14

REFORM MEASURES AND PERFORMANCES

The completion of the schemes have been delayed due to various reasons which adversely affected physical and financial progress of these schemes. The site specific problem related to delivery of inputs or manpower management experienced in previous year was analyzed and correct measures were taken consequently significant physical progress could be achieved during 2017-18 in respect of arranged works. It is targeted to complete all arranged works during 2018-19

REVIEW OF PAST PERFORMANCE

During 2016-17, an amount Rs.1,56,48,05,042/- was expended for the whole programmes under kuttand Package against the budget provision of Rs. 156.48 Crores. The progress achieved for the schemes during the year is better in comparison with the performance in previous year. Unfavorable site conditions, Scarcity of raw materials, delay in getting sanction for tender excess etc were the prime reasons for the slow progress in financial years

Non release of central share in time is another reason for the slow progress

JANLANIDHI-II PROJECT

Inspired by the successful implementation of Phase-I project, Government have decided to launch the World Bank Aided Second Kerala Rural Water Supply and Sanitation Project with the objectives to increase the access of rural communities to improve and sustain water supply and sanitation services in Kerala, using a decentralized, demand driven approach. It has been proposed to implement the project in about 200 Grama Panchayaths in the 8 Districts of Kerala –Kasaragod, Kannur, Wayanad, Kozhikode, Malappuram, Palakkad, Idukki and Kottayam during the period of 5 ½ years from 1st January 2012 to 30th June 2017 . The overall project size is estimated to Rs 1022 Crore (original) out of which an amount of Rs 119 crores will be provided by Grama Panchayaths and Rs 49 crore by Beneficiaries of the Project. Balance Rs 854 crore has to be provided by GoK through budget for 5 ½ years under plan schemes. An amount of equivalent to USD 155 million will get towards re-imbursement from World Bank. Later restructuring proposal by revising the estimate to Rs 1358 Crs and extending the period of project by 1 1/2 years up to 31-12-2018 was approved by the Government. The details of the physical targets are as follows: No.Panchayaths proposed to be covered -200 No of Households proposed to be covered – 2.87 million Population to be covered - 1.15 million (Water Supply), 0.69 million (Sanitation) Total 1.84 million No of small water supply schemes proposed – 3938 (including 396 for Tribes) No of Multi Grama Panchayath Large water supply schemes proposed-5 no (covering 23 GPs) Number of Tribal Grama Panchayaths to be covered -22 Population to be covered (Tribal) - 64944.

Chapter-II FINANCIAL OUTLAYS AND QUANTIFIABLE DELIVERABLES

1. Jalanidhi-II Project During the year under report the implementation of Jalanidhi-Phase-II Project was going on in 115 Grama Panchayaths all over Kerala. A total amount of Rs 361.49 crores was the state budget outlay for the year 2017-18 out of which Rs 278.84 crores was expected as Central Assistance by way of external aid. Complementary Extra Budgetary Resource to the tune of Rs. 74.04 crores was also anticipated by means of Grama Panchayath and Beneficiary Contribution.

Jalanidhi Phase-II is a continuous project for the period of 7 years (revised project period). Hence the net outcome can only be assessed after the completion of the project. As per the project implementation plan 3938 nos of Water Supply Schemes are to be completed and commissioned within the project period. As such the main physical target for the year 2017-18 was set at completion of 313 nos of Water Supply Schemes. But during the year under report 434 nos of water supply schemes have been completed and commissioned and therefore the target achieved can be worked out as 139 %. Besides this 1242 nos of community level sanitation schemes and 123 nos of GWR schemes have also been completed during the year 2017-18. Another 410 nos of water supply schemes were under the various stages of construction though out of the year.

2. Popularization of Rain Water Harvesting and GWR measures through KRWSA

For the Scheme of the Scaling up of Rain Water Harvesting and GWR Programme through KRWSA the budget out lay for the year 2017-18 was Rs 18.20 crores. But Due to the administrative constrains the Administrative Sanction, for a scheme proposed for 2017-18, was delayed. Out of the Budget provision for Rs 20.20 crores, a total amount Rs 5.00 crores (Out of this Rs 4.50 crores was resumed by Government during March-18) was released to KRWSA for implementing the schemes sanctioned for 2015-16 and 2016-17. Construction of 1368 nos of RWH structures in individual households were completed during the year 2017- 18. The details in this chapter is summarized in tabular form and shown as Annexure-I

REFORM MEASURES AND PERFORMANCES

An important and major feature of Jalanidhi–II is in deepening decentralisation in the state by envisaging Grama Panchayaths (GPs) to play a critical role in Project implementation. The Project proposes greater participation of GPs by:

• making GPs joint owners (with BGs) of scheme assets; • increasing GPÊs share of capital costs in a scheme from 10 per cent to 15 percent (and correspondingly reducing that of Beneficiary Groups from 15 per cent to 10 per cent); • assigning GPs to arrange O&M support to Beneficiary Groups (BGs); • granting GPs greater fiduciary control over BGs and other stakeholders at grass root level; • encouraging GPs to avail services of technical support providers (such as individual experts, LSGD Engineering wing, the Kerala Water Authority, the KRWSA) as needed, for a fee; and • conferring more powers in monitoring and evaluating activities of BGs and other stakeholders at grass root level. Since GPs will be responsible for successful implementation of the Project at the local level (including BG activities), GPs are to be extended extra capacity support under Jalanidhi–II. Thus, the ProjectÊs institutional arrangements too will be decentralised by:

• setting up a GP-level Support Team (GPST) in the GP to provide speedy, onsite support to GPs and BGs, and work closely with the GP; • downsizing the District project management unit, in favour of employing engineering and accounting personnel in the GP for local strengthening; and delegating more administrative and financial powers from the PMU to field units (RPMUs and GPSTs).

Performance Budget 2017-18 198 Water Resources Department

Jalanidhi–II, there will be greater integration in rural water supply at village levels. The up-front setting up of an operating institutional mechanism at the GP level will provide sustainable O&M backup support to all rural water supply schemes (not only Jalanidhi schemes) in the GP.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

The Budget Estimates/Revised Estimates and the expenditure in respect of Jalanidhi-Phase-II Project were in an increasing trend during the period from 2012-13 to 2017-18. The actual Plan for expenditure for the project for the year was Rs 202.28 crores by utilising the unspent balance of the previous years and also using the extra budgetary resources.

But the Budget Estimates/Revised Estimates and expenditure there from in respect of the scheme of Scaling up of Rain Water Harvesting and GWR Programme through KRWSA is in a varying trend for the period from 2012-13 to 2017-18. This was mainly due to the administrative constrains in selection of Grama Panchayaths on the basis of the necessity of RWH structures due to scarcity of water.

The details are shown as Annexure-III.

Water Resources Department, Environment and Climate Change Department, Agriculture Department, Tourism Department, Tribal Welfare Department, Kerala Water Authority, KSIDC etc. In addition Water Resources Department of Government of Kerala have nominated Kerala Irrigation Infrastructure Development Corporation Ltd. as the Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) of Irrigation Department for undertaking all works proposed for funding under KIIFB subject to the condition that specific in principal sanction for individual items of work shall be issued for each individual work or a group of works upon submission of Detailed Project Report by Kerala Irrigation

Performance Budget 2017-18 206 Water Resources Department

Infrastructure Development Corporation Ltd./Irrigation Department for those works. Some of the projects successfully completed and ongoing under KIIDC are: • Construction of ezhuthonipadam aqueduct between Ch. 18220 and Ch. 18275.50. The left bank canal of MoovattupuzhaValley Irrigation Project under Irrigation Department has a length of 37.10 km. It is designed to irrigate an area of 13,592 ha. The right bank canal is 28.34 km long to irrigate 5024 ha. The Ettumanoor Branch Canal starts from the tail end of the LBMC and runs for a length of 18525m. The Kurumaloor Distributory off takes from the tail end of Ettumanoor Branch Canal at Ch. 18525m. The Ettumanoor Minor Distributory off takes from the Ettumanoor Branch Canal at Ch. 17860m and from Ch. 17860m to Ch. 18525m of the canal is designed to carry water for 500 ha ayacut under Kurumaloor ayacut. The Ettumanoor Branch Canal is complete up to Ch. 18220m and from Ch. 18275.50m to Ch. 18525 and Kurumaloor Disributory for a length of 10748m is complete. The main bottle neck for the distribution of the water to the 500 ha ayacut is the non – completion of the ezhuthonipadam aqueduct between Ch. 18220 and Ch. 18275.50. Three spans of the aqueduct are not complete and of the three, the central span crosses the railway line. Now 21 trains cross this point during day time. The rail way line is electrified. The staging and bottom shuttering for the central span has to be executed by the railways as a deposit work. The amount for the same has already been remitted with the railways. The design of the central aqueduct has been approved by railway as a pre-stressed aqueduct. The upstream and downstream of canals and aqueducts are complete. By the completion of this portion an additional 500 ha of ayacut can be brought under irrigation immediately.

• The Karapuzha Tourism Project.

Karapuzha Dam located in the Wayanad District of Kerala, is one of the biggest earth dams in India. Karapuzha Dam is located in the greenish and natural regions of Wayanad, Kerala on the Karapuzha River, a tributary of the Kabini River. Construction on the dam began in 1977 and it was complete in 2004. The purpose of the dam is irrigation. Karapuzha dam is a large irrigation dam set in a backdrop of picturesque panorama of Wayanad Hills. The Dam's reservoir with

Performance Budget 2017-18 213 Water Resources Department

partially submerged hills & lush green islands is an ideal breeding ground for aquatic birds.The view of sunset from the dam site is splendid and serene view for the eyes. The major advantage of the dam is the easy accessibility from all points in Wayanad which raises the need for converting the dam as a tourist hub for the entire Wayanad District. It has the potential to become a tourist hub due to its inherent profile and attributes.

As per the order No. 5-PSW(41)/2011 dated 08/12/2011, Government of India had accorded sanction for the implementation of the project „Development of Karappuzha Dam site and Surroundings into a major destination in Kerala‰ amounting to Rs. 492.03 lakhs. Based on this Government of Kerala had issued the Administrative Sanction amounting to Rs. 492.03 lakhs on 09.03.2012 vide its order GO (Rt) No. 1953 / 12 / TSM. Subsequently on 08.03.2013 Government vide GO (Rt) No. 254 / 13 / WRD had issued the order entrusting KIIDC to execute the work in respect of „Development of Karapuzha Dam site and Surroundings into a major destination in Kerala‰.Accordingly the work is complete with the following components. • Tourist arrival cum Facilitation Centre • Open air Theatre and Video Presentation Hall • Souvenir and Spice Stalls • Walkway and Parking area Paving • Landscaping at Karapuzha • Electrification and Area lighting at Karapuzha This being tourism as well as an environmental friendly scheme, the construction activities has been minimised and landscaping works like Rose Garden, bamboo park etc were implemented. The first phase of the tourism project was inaugurated by the HonÊble Minister for Tourism on 21st May 2017 and the Rose Garden was inaugurated by the HonÊble Minister for Water Resources on the same day. Every weekend the dam is visited by more than 2000 tourists and on working days also there is a tourist flow of more than 200 people. This being the situation, the Government had formed a Tourism Management Committee with the local MLA as Chairman and District Collector,

MANUFACTURING The main focus of this PSU is to involve itself in the social service sector as well as in the infrastructure development sector of the state which is quite evident from the past and present projects undertaken by KIIDC. ‹ The KIIDC has established a water bottling plant at Malankara, Idukki District. The plant was formally inaugurated in 24th August 2015. The packaged water bottles are brought to the market under the brand name „Hilly Aqua‰. The Hilly Aqua project makes affordable bottled drinking water available to the common man at reasonable rates - one litre bottle at Rs. 15.00 and two litre bottle at Rs. 20.00. This has been done to arrest the

uncontrolled price hike by the hundred and above private manufactures in Kerala who are selling their products at Rs. 20.00and Rs. 35.00 for one litre and two litre bottles respectively. We have to a great extent achieved our goal as there has been no hike in prices for the last two years by the private manufacturers and there are instances where the manufactures have even reduced their prices.

PROJECT MONITORING UNIT Presently in addition to the projects that are being handled by KIIDC, the company has been designated as the agency to undertake many works that are being funded by Kerala Infrastructure Investment Fund Board (KIIFB). For these projects and for the projects to be taken up it is very important that strict cost control as well as conformity to the time schedule is adhered to. Hence proper Project Management from the day one of the implementation of the projects is necessary. KIIDC has already procured the requisite software ie. Primavera P6 for proper monitoring of the existing projects. At present it is being done with the available staff at the Headquarters of the Company. Now that KIIDC is venturing into more and more mega projects, it is imperative that a proper Project Management Unit is formed and made operative at the headquarters of the Company with proper interlinking with site personnel for regular monitoring of the progress of works.

Hence the Board of Directors of KIIDC have already accorded sanction for the formation of a Project Monitoring Unit with expert staff in that field.

Audited Accounts of the Company.

COMMENTS OF THE FINANCE DEPARTMENT

Kerala has an undulating topography with plain lands, valleys and hills. The coastal line extends upto 580 Km in length. Kerala has 44 rivers, 27 backwaters, 7 lagoons, 16681 ponds and over 30 lakh wells as per the data in the website of Kerala Irrigation Department. Rivers in Kerala also functions as a drainage system during Monsoon season, the rain water flow fastly through the rivers and tributaries due to the steep slope between the western ghat and the Arabian Sea.

Kerala is sufficient with many river basins, out of which 13 basins have an area more than 1000 Km2.There are many other basins which have area less than 1000 Km2.Out of the 44 rivers, 10 rivers have a length between 244 Km and 105 Km. All these 44 rivers drain to a total of 3210 Km length along the state. The length of tributaries are not available.

Kerala receives an average rainfall of 3107 mm which is about thrice of all India average of 1197 mm. All the above factors making Kerala sufficient in water resources.

Water Resources Department comprises Irrigation Department, Ground Water Department, and three autonomous bodies- Kerala Water Authority, Jalanidhi and Kerala Irrigation Infrastructure Development Corporation (KIIDC). These agencies perform various functions to preserve the Water resources, to give irrigation facilities and to supply pure drinking water at every nook and corner of the state.

Chief Engineer, Irrigation and Administration is the Head of the Irrigation Department. Administration of the Department, Inter State water sharing, Minor Irrigation works, Salt water exclusion, Inland water transport, Flood control and Coastal zone management etc are under his control. Besides, Project I (cauvery cell), Project II, Kuttanad Package and Irrigation Design and Research Board (IDRB) are functions under other four Chief Engineers of Irrigation Department.

Performance Budget 2017-18 235 Water Resources Department

The Ground Water Department is also under the control of Water Resources Department of the state, which started as an independent Department in 1978. Now it is the nodal Department in the state for the monitoring and management of the ground water. The Director is the head of the Department and 14 District offices functions under him.

Kerala Water Authority was established on 1st April 1984 under the Kerala Water and Waste Water Ordinance, 1984 by converting the erstwhile Public Health Engineering Department to provide for the development and regulation of water supply and waste water collection and disposal in the state of Kerala. The ordinance was replaced by the Kerala Water Supply and Sewage Act 1986. Managing Director is its head. The Head Quarters situate in Thiruvananthapuram. Chief Engineers are the head of regional offices at Thiruvananthapuram, Kochi and Kozhikode. Another three Chief Engineers control three wings in Water Authority. KWA has about 465 filed offices and around 9000 employees

Jalanithi or Kerala Rural Water supply and sanitation Agency (KRWSA) is another autonomous body functioning under Water Resources Department. It has been promoting mainly small water supply schemes and a few large surface water based, drinking water supply schemes in the rural villages.

The Kerala Irrigation Infrastructure Development Corporation Ltd (KIIDC) is a wholly owned company of Govt of Kerala formed for the promotion and development of medium and large scale irrigation and water supply projects units in the state. At present KIIDC Ltd has been entrusted with works related to civil works, irrigation works, environmental support works etc by different Departments of Government.

The plan outlay provided for Irrigation and flood control during 2017-18 was Rs.676.21crores. Out of which Rs.413.23 crore was earmarked for „Major and Medium Irrigation‰ and 208.56 crore was provided for „Minor Irrigation‰ works. Total plan outlay during 2017-18 for KRWSA (Jalanidhi) was Rs.379.69 crore and for Kerala Water Authority was Rs.678.55 crore. The team visited and evaluated some

Performance Budget 2017-18 236 Water Resources Department

selected offices and selected new schemes from about 60 schemes under Water Resources Department. In previous financial year, the team evaluated 9 schemes and some non-plan works under Minor Irrigation and Water Authority. Unexpected devastating flood and rain witnessed during the year affected the visits of the team. Also almost offices of Irrigation Department are in the pressure of flood management works. Hence the evaluation of plan schemes of Water Resources Department confined to five schemes during this Financial Year. Evaluation notes of the selected team may be seen below:

3. Component Examined:

ASE Work – Renovation of Sea wall for a length of 40m from Chavara 29.350 km to 29.390 km near IRE Mining Area at Karithura in Chavara Constituency.

4. Name of Office : Irrigation Sub Division, Chavara.

5. Date of Visit : 10/07/2018

6. Plan Objectives :

The budgetary support made available under the head „Anti-Sea Erosion‰ is being utilized for construction of new sea wall and reformation of old Sea Wall. The total coastal line identified as vulnerable for erosion/accretion in Kerala is 478 Km. Out of this, 316 km of Sea Wall has been newly constructed using State funds and Central funds in Kerala. The balance length of the sea coast need to be protected on a priority basis. Moreover, the stabilization of the structure requires proper and timely maintenance and repair. And it is proposed to utilize modern technologies like geo-textiles, polyethylene fabrics/sheets and nourishment

Performance Budget 2017-18 237 Water Resources Department

of foreshore with bio materials for coastal protection. Already constructed seawall under 12th and 13th Finance Commission requires constant reformation and this comes to 164 km. As per the plan objective during 2017-18, these works have to be arranged on a priority basis.

7. Social & Economical Significance :

The sea wall constructed near Indian Rare Earth Limited for protection was very vulnerable due to heavy sea attack during monsoon periods in the last many years. A good portion of the coastal land has been washed off and many coconut trees were uprooted due to the heavy sea attacks in past years. During high tide times, sea water was over topping the damaged sea walls and entered into the main land, causing threat to the life and properties of the poor local inhabitants. By reforming the damaged sea walls to its original design levels overtopping of sea water during high wave attack could be restricted. The reformation of the sea wall is done with the clear objective of protecting the life and properties of the poor fisherman community in this coastal belt.

The stretch of sea coast along Karithura is one with national importance for the availability of rare sand rich in minerals for industrial and nuclear related purposes. The famous public Limited Company „Rare Earth Limited‰ is situated very near to the Karithura sea coast. Apart from the importance of richness of precious sand availability, the fisherman community contributes their livelihood, fishing in Arabian Sea. The protection of sea coast in Karithura will provide a feel of security in the minds of fishermen.

8. Constraint/Risk Factors

(a) Major item in this type of work is 200 dm3 stones (weighing 574 Kg). The handling of the high weighted stone is a risk factor because there is a chance of accident. For avoiding such causality workers are deployed at the site for the job. Qualified site supervisors on behalf of the contractors are also ensured to perform the work in safe manner. This is one of the obligations of the contractor as per agreement. Experienced and trained Department officials are needed to be deployed at sites to supervise the works.

Performance Budget 2017-18 238 Water Resources Department

(b) Since the work is being carried out in front of the sea, chances for casualty due to slippage of workers and supervisors from the top of stones, falling of stones from existing sea wall etc are high. These types of casualty are to be avoided by implementing proper brakes during execution. Off season period during the peak of monsoon is also enforced as per the present rules for AISE workers. Close supervision from the side of the contractor and the Department are also ensured for the safety during high wave attack.

(c) This work is done to reform the sea wall for a length of 40 m only. Actually the length of damaged sea wall in Karithura stretch is more than 1.5 km. Out of the total 1.5 km, only 40 metre length is constructed. The reason for the short length is due to non availability of funds for this type of scheme. Assistant Executive Engineer of Irrigation Sub Division opined that if enough funds are available, the entire damaged stretch could be reformed, thereby safety of the entire Karithura coastal area may be ensured.

9. Observation of Finance Department:

The total plan allocation for the scheme „Coastal Zone Management‰ during 2017-18 was Rs. 42 lakh. But Rs 2449.02 was allotted as Additional Authorization out of which Rs 1860.5 lakh was expended. Physical target achievement during the financial year was 54- 84 km of the coastline.

The team visited the Irrigation Division Chavara on 10th July 2018. „Reformation of seawall‰ for a length of 40 km

„Reformation of Seawall‰ for a length of 40m from Chavara 29.350 Km to 29.390 Km near IRE Mining area at Karithura in Chavara Constituency is a non plan-work constructed under the head „2711-02- 103-99‰. The estimate cost of this work was Rs 15 lakh only. Sea attack is very severe in this area. The inhabitants in the area are poor fishermen and their houses situates very close to the sea. Since the existing structure of the sea wall is damaged, sea water is overtopping the sea wall and water enters into the nearby houses and the topsoil in this stretch of coastal land started washed away. The officials of the Irrigation Sub

Performance Budget 2017-18 239 Water Resources Department

Division informed that this condition caused real threats to the life and properties of the local people.

This work consists of 3 component

(a) Core 20 to 40 dm3 stones- Rs.104535/-

(b) Core 45 dm3 stones -Rs.155643/-

1. Armour 200 dm3 stones - Rs.10,83,097/- Total expanded amount for its construction was Rs.13,42,312/-

The team has sought feedback from the fishermen who were the inhabitants of the area. They constructed home very close to the sea coast, are fearless and informed that natural fence formed beside the coast is efficient to defend the sea wave attack. But the construction of sea wall is inevitable, because it protect the natural fence from the direct attacking of the sea waves.

The officials shared their concerns that the construction of only 40m is not a remedy for the existing issue. The length of actual sea wall in Karithura is more than 1500m. The reason for the short length is due to non availability of funds for this types of schemes. If enough fund is available, the entire damaged stretch could be reformed, thereby safety of the entire Karithura coastal area could have been ensured. Total vulnerable sea coast under the Sub Division is about 4.65Km. Sea coast in areas like Parimanam, Shakthikulangara, Neendakara etc are need maintenance works to ensure the protection of the sea coast. As per the views of officials, the reformation of all the sea wall at a time only will give the proper result. The team visited the site, and saw the sea wall beyond the reformation which is in a demolished stage and powerful waves move to the coast and spread towards the constructed structure with great pressure, which will affect its strength.

10. Suggestions of Finance Department

Kerala is just 1.2% of the total area of India which lies as a narrow stretch of low land between the Arabian Sea and the Western Ghat with a 570 km long Coast line. The protection of coastline of Kerala is very

Performance Budget 2017-18 240 Water Resources Department

important which revealed at the time of Tsunami that crashed against India's South Eastern Coast line and killed thousands on December 26,2004. The Green House Effect has been creating climate changes is a cause of the chaos due to irregular winds, intensified rainfall, increased sea attack and extreme sea erosions. The importance of Coastal Management is a reality. Provision for this purpose is only Rs. 42 lakh is not justifiable. Expenditure towards this was more than 18 crore which is obtained through additional authorization. In the meeting held on 26/06/2018, the officials of Chief Engineer Office, I &A remarked on the essentiality of increasing the allocation for this purpose. Considering the emergency nature of this work, the proposal for enhancing the budget provision may be considered.

(2) The officials of Irrigation Sub Division, Chavara has reported about the shortage of stones in . The number of quarries are reduced. 200 dm3 stones are not available in existing quarries which need more labour cost and money for shaping it. Considering the environmental impacts, the possibility of starting new quarries should not be encouraged. The possibilities of modern technologies like Geo Textiles, Polyethylene Fabrics/Sheets and nourishment of foreshore with bio materials for coastal protection should be sought as per reference in the plan write up. The possibilities of concrete sea wall or natural barrier such as mangroves, coral reefs or coastal vegetation should also be considered.

5. Plan Objective :

Lift Irrigation Scheme are using to lifting of water by mechanical means for irrigating mostly for paddy fields having a command area of

Performance Budget 2017-18 241 Water Resources Department

not less than 40 Ha. Rivers or canals are using for sources of the scheme. Under the Water Resources Department, there are about 442 lift irrigation schemes, which are used for agriculture. Also an ayacut area of around 42000 Hectres (42,848.07) has been achieved by the various lift irrigation scheme in the state.

The State Food Security Project has been launched during 2008-09 for augmenting rice production in the State. But a large number of lift irrigation schemes are not functioning. A comprehensive project has been initiated during 2005-10, under State Food Security Project and Malabar package to rehabilitate Lift Irrigation Schemes.

The outlay provided is to meet the expenditure for new works and for meeting the spill over commitments. Out of the total outlay, an amount of Rs.700 lakh is set apart to complete the balance rehabilitation works of Lift Irrigating Schemes taken under Malabar Irrigation Package and also for renovating and repairing the defunct Lift Irrigating schemes. The carried out works are repairs or replacement of pumps, electrical installations, repairs to pump houses, pipe systems etc.

6. The Social and Economical Significance:

In Palakkad District, there are many projects like Chitturpuzha, Malampuzha and Mangalam which are the main sources of irrigation and Lift Irrigation Schemes are just a supplement. Under Minor Irrigation, there are 41 numbers of lift Irrigation schemes which cater to 4815.82 Ha of ayacut areas in which 4000 Ha plus are Paddy Cultivation. The Lift Irrigation scheme of Vazhapuzha Lifts water from Seetharkundu Thode and Irrigates 69 Ha of Paddy fields. These areas are fully irrigated for both first and second crops by the Lift Irrigation scheme. Many of the Lift Irrigation Schemes in Palakkad Districts are fed from the Bharathapuzha and Thoothapuzha in the western part of the District which does not come under the ayacut of any major projects. These Lift Irrigation Schemes are keeping Palakkad as „the granary of Kerala‰. Lift Irrigation Schemes also supply water to the water storage structures like wells and ponds for drinking water purposes in summer.

Performance Budget 2017-18 242 Water Resources Department

Performance Budget Team visited at Minor Irrigation Sub Division, Thiruvalla on 13/07/2018. The works were on final stage of completion. Under Minor Irrigation Sub Division Thiruvalla, there are 21 Lift Irrigation Schemes are functioning. It is informed that the total ayacut area of the total schemes are 1767 Ha. The officials assured that the Lift Irrigation Schemes have great potential to increasing water availability for the agriculture and thereby improving the agricultural productivity. It can improve the ground water recharge to the nearby wells through which an additional irrigation potential is also created. It will attract farmers to cultivate different crops of vegetable, paddy etc which will increase the productivity and income of farmer and cause the development of the region.

7. Components Examined:

Finance team examined three rehabilitation works of Lift Irrigation Schemes under Minor Irrigation Sub Division, Thiruvalla and Chittoor.

1.Rehabilitation of Lift Irrigation Schemes:Keezhvaipur No.1 Lift Irrigation Station in Mallappally Panchayat:

The estimate cost of the Lift Irrigation Scheme is Rs. 25 Lakh. This Lift Irrigation scheme is situated in Mallappally Gramapanchayat in Pathanamthitta District and the scheme is aimed to irrigate water for an ayacut area of 20 Ha by lifting water from using pump and motor and distributing through network of canals. Length of canal system is 1470m and it was damaged at various points. The aim of this work is to revamp the entire system by constructing new pump house with provision of maintenance to the damaged canal system. There was an existing pump house which was situated at the river bank in a height of more than 5 metres from the normal water level of Manimala river. A three storied pump house has constructed for the purpose of lifting the motor to the second floor to avoid periodical conveyance after pumping season. Agreed PAC of this work is Rs.25,53,146/- and date of commencement of this work was on 20/10/2017. Only 10% of this work is completed as on 31/08/2018.

(2)Rehabilitation of lift Irrigation Scheme- Keezhvaipur No.2 Lift Irrigation Station of Mallappally:- This scheme is also situated in Mallappally. This scheme is aimed to irrigate water to an ayacut of 15 Ha by lifting water from Manimala river. Length of the canal is 1967m. Agreed PAC of this work is Rs.24,98,372/- . Date of commencement of this work was on 19/10/2017. 85% of the work has completed as on 31/08/2018.

3.Rehabilitation of Lift Irrigation scheme at Vazhapuzha in Kollengode Grama Panchayat:

The lift irrigation scheme at Vazhapuzha is one of the major schemes in Venkalakayam section. It situates in Kollengode Grama Panchayat. It irrigates an ayacut of 60 Ha Paddy field for first and second crops. The scheme was constructed about 27 years back and the canal of many portions are damaged and water entering into fields and hence sufficient water is not reacting to the tail end portions. The side bunds are also eroded.

8. Observation of Finance Department

The team visited Minor Irrigation Sub Division, Thiruvalla on 13th July and Chittoor on 4th August 2018. Keezhaipur No.1 Lift Irrigation Station provides irrigation facility to about 20 Ha ayacut area of the west part of Thekke Bhagum, Padasekharam. About 21 farmers are benefitted by the scheme. The ayacut area of the Keezhvaipur No.2 Lift Irrigation station in Mallappally Panchayat is 15 Ha, which is beneficial to 19 farmers of east part of Thekke Bhagum Padasekharam and Paduthodu Padasekharam. Irrigated water is used for the cultivation of paddy and vegetables. Both paddy fields were not cultivated during the last three years due to the deficiency of irrigation facilities.

In Chittoor, the team visited the field of Vazhappuzha Lift Irrigation scheme. About 69 Hectre area of paddy fields are under cultivation. Out of total estimated cost of the Rs.8 lakh, major portion is expended for protection works of side wall of canal.

9. Suggestions/Recommendation of Finance Department:

1. In Thiruvalla, there are 26 Seasonal Labour Roll employees are used for pumping duties of 21 Lift Irrigation Schemes. Mr.Srilal, former Secretary of Thekkebhagum Padasekhara Samithi, opined that they are not able to receive irrigated water till the month December. Pumping usually starts only from the month of December. The office head should earnestly use the workers force (Seasonal Labour Roll employees) for providing water for irrigation at any time they are needed.

(2) At the same time, in Minor Irrigation Sub Division, Chittoor, there are Nine lift irrigation schemes are controlled by five daily wage workers and two Seasonal Labour Roll workers. Out of 9, only seven Lift Irrigation Schemes are in working condition. Ayacut area of 3 schemes are above 100 Ha and 3 schemes have ayacut area between 50-100 Ha. In Thiruvalla, almost schemes have very low ayacut area which comes below 30 Ha. The shuffling of daily wages/SLR workers from excess to deficient area is essential.

3. Lift Irrigation schemes are intended for an ayacut area not less than 40 Ha as per the plan write up. Team examined a scheme in Thiruvalla which have an ayacut area of only 15 Ha. The expenditure per Hectares for each scheme should be examined. If the expenditure is very high, a suitable new scheme should be introduced there after a feasibility study.

4. In Thiruvalla, half of the amount of the total estimate of two Lift Irrigation Schemes are used for the construction of a three storey pump house for keeping the motor. Till the construction of the building, the motors of lift irrigation were kept in Kottadu store during non season period. Construction of Pump House should be restricted to the Lift Irrigation Schemes below an ayacut area of 40 Ha.

6. Plan Objective :

Irrigation Department, Kerala is the agency that investigates, designs, constructs, operates and maintains Minor, Medium and Major Irrigation Schemes/Projects. As per the classification followed by the Department, schemes having a cultivable command area upto 2000 Ha are treated as Minor Irrigation works. Medium irrigation works are those with an ayacut area of more than 2000 Ha, but less than 10,000 Ha. Those schemes above 10,000 Ha are classified as Major Irrigation Schemes.

Minor Irrigation schemes are divided into Class I and Class II depending on the ayacut served. Schemes serving above 50 Ha upto 2000 Ha are classified as Minor Irrigation Class I. Minor works like improvements to tanks and rivulets, construction of check dams, sluices regulators, bunds, vented cross bars, salt water barriers, layout of channels and drainage structures etc are usually undertaken under Minor Irrigation Class I schemes.

Under Minor Irrigation Class I Schemes, total outlay of Rs.12400 lakh is provided. An amount of Rs.2400 lakh is provided to meet the expenditure towards completing the ongoing works and for taking up new works. Out of the Rs. 2400 lakh, Rs.500 lakh is provided for the construction of new water retaining or conservation structures under Haritha Keralam. NABARD has been providing loan assistance for works under RIDF for implementing the ongoing NABARD assisted Lift Irrigation Schemes, Minor Irrigation Class I and Class II and for taking new schemes. Rs.10,000 lakh was the provision for Minor Irrigation Class I schemes during 2017-18.

7.Component Examined and the social and economical significance:-

Construction of check dam and improvements to Valiyathode upstream of Kaduthuruthy Main Bridge is the selected project for evaluation.

As per G.O(Rt) No.53/2015/WRD dated 20/01/2015 administrative sanction was accorded for an amount of Rs.800 lakh. The site for this work was handed over on 01/03/2016 and completed by 24/05/2017 within the agreement period. This work have four Appendixes

(a) Construction of Check Dam cum bridge of Vakad :

Its total expenditure was Rs.48,23,804/-. This check dam is constructed across in the Valiyathode at Vakad. The width of the Thode in this location is 10m. The upstream bed slope is constructed for the storage of water to facilitate irrigation and drinking water usage during summer season. For the drinking water the people are mainly using the wells and underground water level is expected to increase during summer period with the execution of work. The bridge is also helpful for local transportation.

The left branch canal of Muvattupuzha Valley Irrigation project is passing through this area and it supply water to this canal, in regular intervals, through a regulator at these areas. The storage of this water can increase irrigation facility to 50 Ha of land directly and also water is available through the thode in the entire summer season.

(b) Construction of Check Dam at Manippally : The width of the thodu at proposed site is 13m and exposed irregular shaped rock bed is visible in this location. The upstream bed slope is adequate to store enough water to facilitate irrigation and drinking water during summer season. This area too is heavily affected by the shortage of water in the summer season. Most of the people depends wells for their drinking water. By the construction of this check dam, during rainy season, the sudden flow of water is reduced and automatically the water can be percolated to the ground and the ground water table will be raised. About 40 Ha of land can

Performance Budget 2017-18 247 Water Resources Department

be now irrigating after its construction and the water in the stream is available throughout the season. Expenditure of this appendix is Rs.34,40,893/-

(c) Construction of protection works:

The total protection works proposed are with a height of 3.5m for a length of 975m and with 3m height for a length of 3110m and with 2.5m height, 1105m is also proposed. Total expenditure for this appendix of the work is Rs.7,15,39,516/-

Valiyathode is the main water stream of the Panchayats of Kaduthuruthy, Neezhoor, Kuruvilangadu, Uzhavoor and Marangattupally. It is started from Uzhavoor and ends at Kaduthuruthy. The total length of the stream is around 35Km. All of these areas are agricultural fields mainly rubber, coconut, vegetables, banana, tapioca, ginger, nutmeg etc. So irrigation is highly demanded. The stream banks were severely damaged in different location. Officials informed that protection work has been provided in 64 different locations having a total length of 6.25 km. The protection is made up in Dry Rubble masonry wall. The officials claimed that about 120 Ha of agricultural field is protected by this work. And the protection work has helped to smooth the flow of water through the stream and erosion of the bank has been terminated.

(d)Silt Removal and deepening of the thodu bed:

Total expenditure of this Appendix is Rs.1,75,320/-. The accumulation of silt in the river bed should obstruct the gravitational flow of water. In monsoon, it will lead to the breaches of the river banks, and flow path will be deviated. Periodical dredging is very important to streams. In this work, desilting and deepening was executed for a length of 1.25 Km.

8. Observations of Finance Department:

The team visited project fields of Valiyathodu on 13/08/2018. The work is distributed in various places. It includes the construction of a check dam cum bridge, a check dam, side protection works and silt removal of the Thode. About 90% of the total expenditure is for the protection works

Performance Budget 2017-18 248 Water Resources Department

of side walls while just Rs.1,75,320/- is expended for the silt removal and deepening of the Thode. Streams like Valiyathode are rich by ecological resource of living beings.. They have a prominent role in the existence of life. But numerous streams have already dried up or have became seasonal due to rapid development, urbanization, poor management, due to lack of sufficient funds and poor enforcement of laws and regulations.

9. Suggestions/Recommendations:

Instead of existing method of canal and river bank protection work using stones, a natural eco-friendly river bank protection method should be evolved out. In the improvement work of Valiyathode under Kaduthuruthy Sub Division, a good portion of the estimate amount Rs.7,15,39,516/- is expended for side wall protection works of the Thode. It is a sample of almost water resources protection works in Kerala. Excessive stone using should adversely affect the environment, hence a parallel method which is convenient to the state, affable to the nature and cost-effective to the state economy should be find out, after studying such methods in other nations with similar physiographical condition.

Performance Budget 2017-18 249 Water Resources Department

5. Plan Objectives :

Minor Irrigation Works which can serve below 50 Ha come under the scheme. The outlay provided is to meet the expenses connected with completion of the ongoing Minor Irrigation Class II schemes and for taking up new works after meeting the spill over commitments for developing Minor Irrigation Structures, including renovation of ponds, lining and side protection in order to strengthen the food production. An outlay of Rs.2200 Lakh have provided during 2017-18 for the execution of new Minor Irrigation Schemes and for the completion of ongoing Class II works. Amount has also provided for construction of check dams/small storage structures, renovation of ponds in rain shadow areas in Palakkad District especially in Kollangode, Chittoor blocks. Watershed interventions (including construction of VCBs, check dams etc) under Haritha Keralam has also been taken up under the scheme for which Rs.500 lakh is provided out of the total outlay.

6. Social and Economical Significance:

The area of Chittoor is one of the most drought prone area of the state. The ground water level has gone down and the taluk is marked as over-exploited in the case of ground water extraction, taking out more water than what the soil offers and it is imperative that the measure is taken to improve the ground water storage. The deepening of ponds will improve the ground water storage of the area. Chittoor Taluk has about 1500 ponds including public, Private and Temple Ponds. Many of ponds are networked and many can be fed from the network of canals of Chitturpuzha project. Many ponds in Chittoor Taluk act as storage reservoirs of the irrigation water supplied by the above irrigation canals. Storing of the flood water during rainy season can using for irrigation during second crop of paddy.

7. Components Examined :

(1)Improvements to Ezhuthanikulam in Perumatty Grama Panchayat.

This renovation work was for an estimated amount of Rs.8.75 lakh. This pond is situated just 250m away from Chittur, Vandithavalam

Performance Budget 2017-18 250 Water Resources Department

road at Ezhuthani in Perumatty Panchayat. This pond collects water supplied by left bank canal of Chitturpuzha and distributes water for irrigation to more than 20 Ha of Paddy fields. The bank of the pond is to be protected on North Side and the height of it is to be increased on the East and South sides apart from removal of the silt deposited in the pond to increase the storage capacity of pond. The protection of the sides of ponds on North side for a length of 30m and a height of 2.4m; heightening the side wall on Eastern side for a height of 0.70m and South side for a height of 0.90m were the components of this renovation work. Two bathing Ghats are also part of this work.

The area of Chittur in which the pond is located is experiencing severe draught during every summer. The protection of ponds like it will improve the ground water storage of the locality. The estimate has included 11 items in which clearing, deepening, protection of banks with rubble masonry, cement concrete 1:3:6 and 1:2:4 are included.

2.Improvements to Mancherikulam, Uppukaranchalla in Perumatti Grama Panchayath:

The estimate amount of this work is Rs.26.5 lakh. This pond collects water supplied by left bank canal of Chitturpuzha and distributes water to 50 Ha of Paddy fields. The renovation works are protection of banks and the removal of silt deposited in the pond. The protection of side wall for a length of 174 m and a height of 2.8m, two bathing ghats and an outlet channel for releasing water to the fields from pond are the components of the work.

8. Observation of Finance Department :

The team visited Chittoor Minor Irrigation Sub Division on 04/08/2018 and conducted field visit of two ponds. As per information from officials under Chittoor Sub Division, there are hundreds of ponds are recharging by the canals of Chitturpuzha during draught season. The exploitation of ground water using borewell is very higher in this locality. Over exploitation of ground water in this area has led to water scarcity in

Performance Budget 2017-18 251 Water Resources Department

this area. Rainfall in this taluk is about half of the state average. It affirms the importance of the conservation of existing water resources like ponds and streams. Rainwater harvesting and artificial recharging should be promoted in this area under the Sub Division. As per a discussion with the Agriculture Officer, Kanjirampuzha, the over dependence of bore well water is very high in this area. The bore well water is collecting in farm ponds and distributing it to land for agricultural purposes. In Palakkad District, an amount of Rs.5 crore is expending for electricity subsidy by Agriculture Department. They also observed that the canals for irrigation purpose is very narrow in width, which causing slowing and insufficiency in water supply for agricultural purposes. In Chittur Taluk, about 65% of canals are dry during the second crop period.

In Mancherikulam, there is a canal of Chitturpuzha to recharge the pond. But the canal work of about 20m is incomplete. At the time of visit, a lot of soil remains between the canal and pond, and has a possibility to refill the soil to pond due to water flow from the canal. The Assistant Engineer, Thathamangalam has informed that a silt trap in the inlet channel has constructed after the team visit, which will prevent the refilling of soil to the pond. The piled silt which accumulated around the pond during the visit has also been removed now.

9.Suggestions/Recommendations by Finance Department:

1. There are plenty of ponds and Minor Irrigation Water Sub Division, which requires maintenance for their conservation. Priority should be given to such small irrigation projects by Irrigation Department. 2. The team has also been observed that many ponds and tanks are being encroached for settlement purposes. Every existing ponds and tanks should be cleaned and preserved as water resources for natural water recharge under various schemes like „Pradhan Manthri Krishi Sinchai Yojana(40% SS) and „ Renovation of Tanks and Ponds‰ of Irrigation Department.

6. Components Examined :

Comprehensive Rural Water Supply scheme to Mallappalli, Anicadu and Kottangal Panchayats -Phase I

Water Supply Scheme to Seethathode Panchayath and Nilakkal-Plappally area in Perunadu Panchayats - Phase I

Performance Budget 2017-18 253 Water Resources Department

7. Social and Economical Significance of the Scheme :

Seethathode and Perunadu are two Panchayaths situated in Ranni Taluk in Pathanamthitta District. The world renowned Sabarimala Temple is located in Perunadu Panchayat. This project is aimed to providing drinking water to the entire population of Seethathode panchayat and to the base camps enroute to the holy shrine 'Sabarimala' namely Plappally and Nilakkal in Perunadu Panchayat. Seethathode is the only one panchayat in the District in which no water supply schemes are in operation. At present, Pampa area is fed with water from Pampa river through the pumping station situated near the Pamba - Triveni bridge after pressure infiltration and disinfection by chlorination. There is no full fledged water supply facility available here. This project is designed to meet the water demand for next 30 years.

Mallappally, Anicadu and Kottangal panchayaths are situated in the north-western region of Pathanamthitta District and belongs to Mallappally Taluk. This project is aimed at providing portable drinking water to the entire population of Mallappally and Anicadu panchayaths and to 6 wards of Kottangal Panchayats. The scheme area is characterised by steep hills, narrow gorges and precipitated escarpments. The topography of scheme area is not suitable to retain rain water. The existing water supply scheme such as Rural Water Supply Schemes to Mallappally, Rural Water Supply Scheme to Anicadu and Rural Water Supply Scheme to Kottangal were commissioned 30 to 40 years back and are very inadequate to meet water demand of entire population of the Panchayaths. In the present water supply system, the only treatment given to the supplied water is disinfection by adding the bleaching powder.

A full fledged piped water supply project with proper treatment plant is the only solution to solve the increasing water scarcity problem in the scheme area. (The scheme area lies close to the NRI city Thiruvalla which is one of richest place. Major income of the villagers is from rubber tree plantation and foreign money by NRIs. People are most concern about health aspects and are aware of using good quality drinking water. But people residing in the peripheral areas, especially in the hilly regions

Performance Budget 2017-18 254 Water Resources Department

lack the basic amenities like safe drinking water and better sanitation facilities).

8.Observation of Finance Department :

Finance Team visited Project Division, Adoor from 08/08/2018 to 09/08/2018, verified concerned files and visited the selected fields. Rural Infrastructure Development Fund XIX Water Supply and Sanitation to Seethathode Nilakkal and Plappally area in Perunadu Panchayat is sanctioned as per AS No. WS16/2014-15 dated 21/06/2014 for an amount of Rs.909 Lakh. It is a spill over work. About 60% of this work is completed. It is expected to complete the work within 01/2019. Total expenditure as on 30/06/2018 was 560.93 Lakh. Total population benefitted by this work is 1,46,396. This project work have 3 components- (1) Construction of new well-cum-pump house in Rocky strata (2) Construction of 13 MLD Treatment Plant, providing chlorination units, development of site and (3) Construction of Clear Water Sump at Treatment Plant .

Rural Infrastructure Development Fund- XIX Water Supply Scheme to Mallappally, Anicadu and Kottangal panchayat is sanctioned as per AS No.WS17/2014-15 dated 21/06/14 for an amount of Rs.798 Lakh. It is also a spill over work. Overall 80% of this work is completed. It is expected that the work will be completed within 12 /2018. About 42,537 people will get the benefit of this work. There are 3 component in this work. They are (1) Construction of new well-cum-pump house (2) Construction of 10 MLD Treatment Plant, providing Chlorination units and development of site (3) Construction of Clear Water sump at Treatment Plant.

9. Constraints and Risk factors:

Aftermath of the discussions with official, the report may be concluded with the constraints and risk factors, they are facing while the execution of work. Pathanamthitta District is hilly, hence for implementing various water supply schemes, some components are need to be constructed by the blasting of hard rocks. The officials always arranging the blasting process of hard rocks very safely, but some local people are

Performance Budget 2017-18 255 Water Resources Department

protesting against it. This cause in delay for the specific implementations of project works.

Another constraint is the delay of road cutting as part of the work. During Sabarimala festival season (from September to January), road cutting is not allowed for laying pipe. With the increases of road cutting charges, project cost also increases. Availability of suitable land for the construction work is another constraint, they are facing.

10. Suggestions/Recommendations by Finance Department:

(1)Around 40% of water is lost during transmission through the Pre- Stressed Concrete (PSC) in almost existing old schemes. It will augment the production cost of drinking water immensely. Tariff acquired from customers are also very meagre which is not enough to compensate even the salary of a permanent staff as Meter Readers. In this context, the only possible method to avoid the transmission loss is by the usage of advanced quality pipes like Mild Steel (MS) Pipes or Ductile Iron pipes by changing old existing Pre Stressed Concrete pipes in huge transmission water loss areas. Its feasibility in rural areas should also be sought out.

(2)As per information from officials, land acquisition for the construction process is facing a great complexity. Local Self Government Department and Revenue Department should join with Water Authority for acquiring the required land for Water Supply Projects. The implementation of a new scheme should commence only after acquiring enough land, which should minimize the unnecessary lagging of ongoing projects.
