  • 1 Issues Pertaining to Peninsular Rivers Wing Interstate Matters: (A) Mullaperiyar Dam Issue 1. on 29-10-1886, a Lease In
    Issues pertaining to Peninsular Rivers wing i. Interstate matters: (a) Mullaperiyar Dam Issue 1. On 29‐10‐1886, a lease indenture for 999 years was made between Maharaja of Travancore and Secretary of State for India for Periyar irrigation works. By another agreement in 1970, Tamil Nadu was permitted to generate power also. The Mullaperiyar Dam was constructed during 1887‐1895. Its full reservoir level is 152 ft and it provides water through a tunnel to Vaigai basin in Tamil Nadu for irrigation benefits in 68558 ha area. 2. In 1979, reports appeared in Kerala Press about damage to Periyar Dam. On 25th November, 1979 Chairman, CWC held meeting with the officers of Irrigation and Electricity, Deptt. of Kerala and PWD of Tamil Nadu and some emergency medium term measures and long‐term measures for strengthening of Periyar Dam were decided. A second meeting under the Chairmanship of Chairman, CWC was held on 29th April 1980 and it was opined that after the completion of emergency and medium term measures, the water level in the reservoir can be raised up to 145 ft. 3. The matter became sub‐judice with several petitions. On the directions of the Supreme Court in its order dated 28.4.2000, Minister (WR) convened the Inter‐State meeting on 19.5.2000 and as decided in the meeting, an Expert Committee under Member (D&R), CWC with representatives from both States was constituted in June 2000 to study the safety of the dam. The Committee in its report of March, 2001 opined that with the strengthening measures implemented, the water level can be raised from 136 ft.

  • Water Resources Department Performance Budget
    GOVERNMENT OF KARNATAKA WATER RESOURCES DEPARTMENT (MAJOR, MEDIUM IRRIGATION AND CADA) PERFORMANCE BUDGET 2017-18 JUNE 2017 1 PREFACE The Administrative Reforms Commission set up by the Government of India, inter alia, recommended that Department/Organizations of both the Centre and the States, which are in charge of development programmes, should introduce performance budgeting. In accordance with this suggestion, the Water Resources Department has been publishing performance budget from the year 1977-78. The performance budget seeks to present the purpose and the objective for which funds are requested, the cost of the various programmes and activities and quantitative data, measuring the work performed or services rendered under each programme and activity. In other words, performance budget represents a work plan conceived in terms of functions, programmes, activities and projects with the financial and physical aspects closely interwoven in one document. It may be mentioned here that, in the performance budget compiled now, an attempt has been made to relate the traditional budget to the programmes and activities. Suggestions for improvements are welcome and these would be gratefully received and considered while publishing the performance budget in the coming years. Bangalore Principal Secretary to Government June 2017 Water Resources Department 2 INTRODUCTION Performance budgeting helps in focusing attention on programmes, activities and their costs as also the performance in both physical and financial terms. Having regard to the merits of the technique, the Government of Karnataka has decided to adopt the system. As is inherent in the technique of performance budgeting, programme has been presented giving brief particulars of the programme, irrigation potential activity, classification and source of finance.

  • Need to Ensure Adequate Availability of Water in Palar River in Tamil Nadu and Also Expedite Pennayar - Palar Link Canal Project
    an> Title: Need to ensure adequate availability of water in Palar River in Tamil Nadu and also expedite Pennayar - Palar Link Canal Project. SHRI B. SENGUTTUVAN (VELLORE): River Palar, an inter-State river, originating in Karnataka, runs to a distance of 53 kms in Karnataka, 30 kms in Andhra Pradesh and 222 kms in Tamil Nadu. The river is covered under Schedule-A of the Madras-Mysore Agreement. As per Clause II of Agreement upstream State cannot construct any dam or reservoir without consent of the downstream State. During the monsoons, where adequate rainfall is received, the waters of the river replenish more than one thousand tanks, ponds and lakes on either side of its banks, which are the sources of water of drinking and irrigation in Vellore and Kancheepuram Districts. The Palar ayacut supports cultivation of roughly 4.2 lakh acres of lands. However, due to the construction of Check-dams across the river by neighbouring States of Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh, the water flow in the river has completely ceased leaving the land patched, dry and drought-stricken. To compound the problems, the Andhra Pradesh Government is raising the height of check dam in Perumpallam village on the very border of Tamil Nadu State to a height of 12 feet and more with a view to converting it into a reservoir. This would seriously impede water flow in the Palar and deprive Tamil Nadu of the much needed Palar water. In order to protect the ayacutdars, the inter-state Palar River has to be nationalised removing all dams and barriers constructed across it and the 52 km long Pennayar-Palar Link Canal Project has to be implemented expeditiously.

  • Assessment of Fluoride Concentration in Palar River in Kanchipuram District, Tamil Nadu, India R
    Research Article Assessment of fluoride concentration in Palar River in Kanchipuram district, Tamil Nadu, India R. Pradeep Kumar1*, R. Priya1, Lakshmi Thangavelu2 ABSTRACT Back ground: River Palar is one of the most contaminated rivers of India due to various industries. Aim:To study the fluoride concentration in the Pallar river. Four river water samples were collected during the pre-monsoon season spanning over June 2015. Methodology: Fluoride levels were analyzed by standardized analytical method by the Chief Water Analyst, State Level Water Testing Laboratory, Tamil Nadu Water Supply and Drainage Board, Government of Tamil Nadu, Chennai (ISO 9001–2000 - Certified). Result: In the present study, fluoride contents in all samples ranged between 0.18 and 0.22 mg/l, which are less than the optimum range of 1.5 mg/l, as recommended by the WHO. KEY WORDS: Fluoride, Palar River, Water quality INTRODUCTION of the global tanning factories are located in this state. Out of this, 449 units are located in the Vellore River water resources are highly essential for various district, particularly in the Palar basin (Upper Palar). domestic, agricultural, and industrial purposes. Hence, The impact of tannery wastewater disposal leads to the consumption rate is increasing day by day in the environmental as well as social disharmony of the areas where surface water sources are not enough to society and also acts as a major industrial pollution meet the demands. In recent decades, water pollution source that the country faces today. Even though has been considered as an important agenda for this problem persists for a long time, it has attracted various research activities due to its significant role in serious attention only in recent time.
