Mylavaram Reservoir Canal System (MRC) Preamble Mylavaram Reservoir is constructed across Pennar River with a gross storage capacity of 9.960 TMC near Mylavaram Village in YSR Kadapa District for providing irrigation potential to an extent of 75,000 acres. The construction of the project and formation of canals were completed by the end of 1981-82 and the distributary system was completed by 1985-86. The reservoir consists of two main canals viz. MR South Canal & MR North Canal having an extent of 25,000 acres & 50,000 acres of ayacut respectively.The actual ayacut created is 70,590 Acres.

Pulivendula Branch Canal System Preamble http://irrigationap.cgg.gov.in/wrd/getDistricts 4/61 10/31/2018 District Irrigation Profiles An Anicut was constructed during year 1973 to divert water into Pulivendula Brach Canal system and PBC system is an integral part of TBP HLC system and prorate entitlement of water is 4.40 TMC at TB Dam and 2.00TMC from self catchment. The PBC system receives water from Km 72.00 of Mid Pennar south Canal and runs Km from Tumpera Deep Cut, then after it runs 10.00 Km length in Hosuramma Vanka to reach Chitravathi River and then 11.00Km in Chitravathi River to reach Anicut near Goddumarri Village of Yellanur Mandal of Ananthapur District. Due to scarcity rain fall and depending up of release of water from TBP HLC system is not fully satisfactory. Hence the Chitravathi Balancing Reservoir is constructed across Chitravathi River near Parnapalli village of LIngala Mandal of YSR Kadapa District with a storage capacity of 10.00TMC and completed the Reservoir during the 2009. Salient features :The Pulivendula Brach Canal system starts from Goddumarri Village of Yellanur Mandal of Ananthapur Location District to a length of 68.00Kms with various Branch Canals and Distributories to feed an ayacut of 55,580 acres. 55,580 Acres (50,780 Acres in YSR Kadapa District and Total Ayacut : 4800 Acres in Ananthapur District.) 8 Mandals (7 Mandals in YSR Kadapa District i.e., Kondapuram, Simhadripuram, Thondur, Lingala, Mandals Benefitted : Pulivendula, Vemula and Vempalli. 1 Mandal in Anantapuram District i..e, Yellanur) The allocation of water to P.B.C.System from TBP HLC Water allocation : system in 4.40 TMC & 2.00 TMC from self Catchment.

Kurnool - Kadapa Canal Preamble The Kurnool - Cuddapah Canal Project, a part of Tungabhadra Sub Basin of Krishna Basin is a 143 years old irrigation system in Andhra Pradesh. A private Dutch Company called Madras Irrigation Canal Co.Ltd.,had constructed this canal system during 1863-1870 for providing navigation facility as well as irrigation. The irrigation supplies required for K.C Canal System are diverted from Tungabhadra River by means of anicut constructed across this river at Sunkesula. The Tungabhadra Sub Basin is a part of Krishna Basin. As per KWDT award the allocation of assessed flows of Tungabhadra Basin and Vedavathi ( Hagari ) Sub Basin for existing and future projects in A.P. is 3929 cubic meters. Out of this the K.C Canal share is 1130 cubic meter (39.90 TMC). The project comprised of an anicut across river Tungabhadra, a tributary of river Krishna, at Sunkesula Village in Kurnool District and a 305.60 KM long navigation-cum-irrigation canal.
