Introduction Geological Investigations for Moragahakanda dam were commenced by USOM in 1959, and core drilling surveys were subsequently done by UNDP/FAO and Irrigation Department of Sri Lanka in 1967/1968 and 1977/1978 respectively. A full-scale geological investigation including core drilling, seismic prospecting, work adit, in-situ rock shear test, construction material survey and test grouting was carried out for the feasibility study by JICA in 1979 (hereinafter referred to FS (1979)). Almost twenty years had past after FS (1979), additional feasibility study including 34 drill holes was carried out by Lahmeyer International Associates in 2000/2001 (hereinafter referred to FS (2001)). Subsequently, supplemental geological investigations including core drilling, electric resistivity survey and laboratory tests for rock materials were done by MASL in 2007.

  • Fit.* IRRIGATION and MULTI-PURPOSE DEVELOPMENT
    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.

The year under review was eventful and we were able to take many progressive steps that will steer this sector to be more productive to serve the nation in the coming years. The capital investment programme of the Ministry had a workload of approximately Rs 20,000 million. This was a heavy development programme. We were on the path to achieve good progress, in spite of floods occurred in the beginning of the year and other constraints that had to be overcome during implementation. Steps were taken to remedy constraints such as staff shortages that existed, by new recruitments to the certain skilled technical grades but the shortage still prevails by large especially in the grades of Engineers, Engineering Assistants and other technical categories, which is being addressed by way of restructuring institutions, reviewing schemes of recruitments etc.

  • A Case Study of the Kotmale Dam in Sri Lanka Jagath Manatungea* and Naruhiko Takesadab
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Digital Repository, University of Moratuwa International Journal of Water Resources Development Vol. 29, No. 1, March 2013, 87–100 Long-term perceptions of project-affected persons: a case study of the Kotmale Dam in Sri Lanka Jagath Manatungea* and Naruhiko Takesadab aDepartment of Civil Engineering, University of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka; bFaculty of Humanity and Environment, Hosei University, Tokyo, Japan (Received 3 June 2012; final version received 11 June 2012) Many of the negative consequences of dam-related involuntary displacement of affected communities can be overcome by careful planning and by providing resettlers with adequate compensation. In this paper the resettlement scheme of the Kotmale Dam in Sri Lanka is revisited, focusing on resettlers’ positive perceptions. Displaced communities expressed satisfaction when income levels and stability were higher in addition to their having access to land ownership titles, good irrigation infrastructure, water, and more opportunities for their children. However, harsh climate conditions, increased incidence of diseases and human–wildlife conflicts caused much discomfort among resettlers. Diversification away from paddy farming to other agricultural activities and providing legal land titles would have allowed them to gain more from resettlement compensation. Keywords: dam construction; involuntary displacement; livelihood rebuilding; resettlement compensation Introduction Over the decades, there has been growing concern about the negative consequences of the involuntary displacement of rural communities for large-scale infrastructure development (De Wet, 2006; Robinson, 2003). The construction of dams is the most often cited example of development projects that cause forced displacement of communities (McCully, 2001).

  • Water Balance Variability Across Sri Lanka for Assessing Agricultural and Environmental Water Use W.G.M
    Agricultural Water Management 58 (2003) 171±192 Water balance variability across Sri Lanka for assessing agricultural and environmental water use W.G.M. Bastiaanssena,*, L. Chandrapalab aInternational Water Management Institute (IWMI), P.O. Box 2075, Colombo, Sri Lanka bDepartment of Meteorology, 383 Bauddaloka Mawatha, Colombo 7, Sri Lanka Abstract This paper describes a new procedure for hydrological data collection and assessment of agricultural and environmental water use using public domain satellite data. The variability of the annual water balance for Sri Lanka is estimated using observed rainfall and remotely sensed actual evaporation rates at a 1 km grid resolution. The Surface Energy Balance Algorithm for Land (SEBAL) has been used to assess the actual evaporation and storage changes in the root zone on a 10- day basis. The water balance was closed with a runoff component and a remainder term. Evaporation and runoff estimates were veri®ed against ground measurements using scintillometry and gauge readings respectively. The annual water balance for each of the 103 river basins of Sri Lanka is presented. The remainder term appeared to be less than 10% of the rainfall, which implies that the water balance is suf®ciently understood for policy and decision making. Access to water balance data is necessary as input into water accounting procedures, which simply describe the water status in hydrological systems (e.g. nation wide, river basin, irrigation scheme). The results show that the irrigation sector uses not more than 7% of the net water in¯ow. The total agricultural water use and the environmental systems usage is 15 and 51%, respectively of the net water in¯ow.
