Tel: 2852410, E-mail: [email protected] ii FOREWORD In May 2010, pre-monsoon rains that were intensified by Cyclone Laila saw thunder storms and high winds, accompanied by floods and landslides, sweep through 14 of Sri Lanka’s 25 districts. The extreme weather caused severe distress to over half a million people and billions of rupees in damages to public and private assets. This report is a record of this unanticipated natural disaster and is also a guide to future post disaster assessments and highlights the importance of investment in disaster risk reduction. With the receding of flood waters the Government of Sri Lanka initiated a process of evaluating the impact of the disaster to strengthen the recovery process and disaster preparedness systems. As part of this process, the Disaster Management Centre of Sri Lanka (DMC) requested the World Bank’s assistance to conduct a Damage and Loss Assessment (DaLA) for the first time in Sri Lanka. In response, the World Bank, in collaboration with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), mobilized a team of experts from the Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery (GFDRR), to support Government agencies conduct the post flood assessment. This report is the culmination of these efforts. While the focus of this report is limited to the five worst affected districts of Colombo, Gampaha, Kalutara, Matara and Galle, the disaster impact evaluation encapsulated within this report will have the much broader national relevance of assisting Sri Lanka conduct similar post disaster assessments in the future. The report captures the broad impact of the disaster on the country’s economy and also examines the impact on different sectors of the economy, such as the country’s infrastructure, productive sectors and livelihoods. The assessment, for the first time, gives policy makers a detailed and quantified picture of damages, and direct and indirect losses, suffered by populations affected by a natural disaster. Although direct physical damages are easily noted and replaced, indirect losses are in many cases less noticeable. However, indirect losses may account for an equal, or larger share, of the overall impact. This report illustrates how such visible and invisible losses can be quantified for a better understanding of effects of natural disasters. The report also identifies recovery and risk mitigation needs. The assessment of the May 2010 floods highlighted the urgent need to develop sustainable mechanisms for the maintenance of drainage, irrigation and flood control systems in the country. The unexpected speed and virulence of the May 2010 floods also highlighted the need for strengthening disaster preparedness, iii particularly as the country faces a greater likelihood of extreme weather conditions in future, due to climate change. I hope this report, the first of its kind, will become a guide to future post disaster assessments and to develop sustainable disaster recovery strategies for Sri Lanka. I would like to thank the UNDP, the World Bank and the GFDRR for providing technical and financial assistance to undertake this first post flood assessment in Sri Lanka. I would also like to thank the sector agencies and resource persons involved in the assessment, including the DMC, for their contribution in completing this assessment successfully. S. M. Mohamed Secretary Ministry of Disaster Management iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This report was compiled by the Ministry of Disaster Management of Sri Lanka with assistance from the World Bank, the GFDRR and the UNDP. The World Bank and the GFDRR provided technical expertise in adopting the methodology of assessing damages and losses, and in training Sri Lankan teams on data capturing and analysis for Sri Lanka’s first post disaster damage and loss assessment. The UNDP collaborated by providing coordination support, technical expertise in data compilation and analysis, and by funding the logistical arrangements. Sri Lanka’s first Damage and Loss Assessment (DaLA) was successfully completed by the Disaster Management Centre of Sri Lanka (DMC), under the aegis of the Ministry of Disaster Management. In concluding the DaLA of the May 2010 floods, the assessment team would like to acknowledge the support of the former Minister of Disaster Management, Hon. A. H. M.

    fit.* The Historic Jaya Ganga — built by King Dbatustna in tbi <>tb century AD to carry the waters of the Kala Wewa to the ancient city tanks of Anuradbapura, 57 miles away, while feeding a number of village tanks in its course. This channel is also famous for the gentle gradient of 6 ins. per mile for the first I7 miles and an average of 1 //. per mile throughout its length. Both tbeKalawewa andtbefiya Garga were restored in 1885 — 18 8 8 by the British, but not to their fullest capacities. New under the Mabaweli Diversion project, the Kill Wewa his been augmented and the Jaya Gingi improved to carry 1000 cusecs of water. The history of our country dates back to the 6th century B.C. When the legendary Vijaya landed in L->nka, he is believed to have found an island occupied by certain tribes who had already developed a rudimentary sys­ tem of irrigation. Tradition has it that Kuveni was spinning cotton on the bund of a small lake which was presumably part of this ancient system. The development of an ancient civilization which was entirely depen­ dent on an irrigation system that grew in size and complexity through the years is described in our written history. Many examples are available which demonstrate this systematic development of water and land re­ sources throughout the so-called dry zone of our country over very long periods of time. The development of a water supply and irrigation system around the city of Anuradhapuia may be taken as an example.

  • Precipitation Trends in the Kalu Ganga Basin in Sri Lanka
    January 2009 PRECIPITATION TRENDS IN THE KALU GANGA BASIN IN SRI LANKA A.D.Ampitiyawatta1, Shenglian Guo2 ABSTRACT Kalu Ganga basin is one of the most important river basins in Sri Lanka which receives very high rainfalls and has higher discharges. Due to its hydrological and topographical characteristics, the lower flood plain suffers from frequent floods and it affects socio- economic profile greatly. During the past several years, many researchers have investigated climatic changes of main river basins of the country, but no studies have been done on climatic changes in Kalu Ganga basin. Therefore, the objective of this study was to investigate precipitation trends in Kalu Ganga basin. Annual and monthly precipitation trends were detected with Mann-Kendall statistical test. Negative trends of annual precipitation were found in all the analyzed rainfall gauging stations. As an average, -0.98 trend with the annual rainfall reduction of 12.03 mm/year was found. April and August were observed to have strong decreasing trends. July and November displayed strong increasing trends. In conclusion, whole the Kalu Ganga basin has a decreasing trend of annual precipitation and it is clear that slight climatic changes may have affected the magnitude and timing of the precipitation within the study area Key words: Kalu Ganga basin, precipitation, trend, Mann-Kendall statistical test. INTRODUCTION since the lower flood plain of Kalu Ganga is densely populated and it is a potential Kalu Ganga basin is the second largest area for rice production. During the past river basin in Sri Lanka covering 2766 km2 several years, attention has been paid to and much of the catchment is located in study on precipitation changes of main the highest rainfall area of the country, river basins of Sri Lanka.

INTRODUCTION Upgrading the railway network for faster travel, modern rolling stock and passenger facilities is a long-felt need. The Government made a policy decision in 2015 to upgrade and electrify the network serving the suburbs of Colombo, and a project by the name “Colombo Suburban Railway Project (CSRP)” was established in 2016 under the Ministry of Transport. By way of the existing network, the logical nodes of CSRP may be identified as Colombo-Polgahawela (main line), Colombo-Kalutara South (coastal line), Colombo-Avissawella (Kelani valley line) and Ragama-Airport- Negombo (Puttalam line). The distant nodes approximately reflect the boundaries of the Western Province. CSRP published feasibility study reports in 2019 (for Kelani Valley line [1]) and in 2020, for main, coastal and Puttalam lines [2]. The reports are available in the public domain, and CSRP from time to time, invited public comments on their contents. However, there are no reports of any public comments being accommodated or revisions being made to CSRP designs. Figure 1 shows the layout of the Colombo Suburban Railway Project as it is conceptualised at present (2021) by the Ministry of Transport. CSRP defines Rambukkana (on the Main Line), Kalutara south (on the Coastal Line), Negombo (on the Puttalam Line) and Avissawella (on the KV Line) as the end nodes of the suburban railway network of Colombo.
