DVC supplies 649 million cubic metres (mcm) of water to 172 industrial, Water Supply municipal and domestic entities in W.B & Jharkhand The irrigation potential developed in West Bengal covers an area of about 3.35 Irrigation lakh hectares for Kharif, 0.21 lakh ha for Rabi and about 0.60 lakh ha for Boro crops. Durgapur Barrage 8 DVC’s contribution to Industrial Growth 9 Background • The Damodar region, was predominantly covered with forests interspaced with scattered rural settlements. • The forests were gradually cleared to facilitate mining of coal which began since the middle of the 13th century. • Availability of coal, opening of railways and location near Calcutta Port created conditions for setting up heavy metallurgical industry in this region in subsequent years. • Industrial urbanization began with the completion of Damodar Valley Multipurpose River Valley Project in the 1950s and Government policy adopted during the Five Year Plans. • This was followed by engineering, paper, chemical, aluminum, pharmaceuticals etc. being clustered in between National Highway (NH2) and the railway line. • The predominantly rural economy of the region has been replaced by a industrial unban economic system creating both direct and indirect employment. 10 Originates from the Chota Nagpur Plateau in Jharkhand Tilaiya Dam DVC plants & Other Industry Rainfall Konar Dam Maithon Dam Domestic & Municipal Panchet Dam Use Mine Drainage Agriculture River Damodar is 592 kms long Flows into the River Hooghly in West Bengal Waters of the River Damodar 11 States/Industries that consume DVC POWER Supply to 8 Indian States Steel 1.
