BACKGROUND 1.01 Pakistan's irrigation, drainage, and flood protection systems are deteriorating because of an accumulation of deferred maintenance. This has been evidenced by: breaching of flood protection bunds during the 1973 and 1976 floods, frequent breaching of canal banks; and, clogging of canals and surface drains with sediment and debris. This situation has been documented in many reports such as: (a) "Pakistan: Flood Rehabilitation Program Credit", Report No. 304a-PAK, World Bank (February 20, 1974); (b) "Operation and Maintenance of Flood Protection Works in Pakistan", Inter-Departmental Group (June 1978); (c) "Revised Action Progranm (RAP) for Irrigated Agricul- ture", Water and Power Development Authority (May 1979); and (d) "An Economic Analysis of Level and Structure of Irrigation Water Charges", a recent publication by Pakistan's Institute of Development Economics. 1.02 The possibility of strengthening the operation and maintenance
