The Integrated Investment Program (iROAD) is proposed by the Road Development Authority (RDA) under Ministry of Highways, Ports and Shipping (MOHPS) to improve transport connectivity between rural communities and socioeconomic centers. iROAD intends to connect 1,000 Grama Niladari Divisions1 (GNDs) throughout the country as rural hubs and link them to trunk road network to all weather standards, and operating a sustainable trunk road network of at least fair condition. The iROAD will be financed by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) under a Multi tranche Financing Facility (MFF) to have four tranches implemented over ten years. Tranche 2 covers: Sabaragamuwa, Kaluthara District of Western Province, North Western, Central, and North Central Provinces. 2. Roads under Tranche II are located in Puthlam and Kurunegala districts of North Western Province, Kandy, Matale and NuwaraEliya districts of Central Province, Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa districts of North Central Province, Rathnepura and Kagella districts of North SabaragamuwaProvince and Kaluthara district of Western Province. In North Western Province, iRoad program will develop a total of 52 provincial and 62 rural roads with a total length of 760.48km. Out of this, 524.88km and 726.79 km rural roads are located within Kurunegala and Puthlam district. These roads have been selected for financing based on consultations with MOHPS, local authorities, and parliamentarians and a screening criteria on existing road conditions and development needs. 3. The proposed road upgrading will include: improvement and maintenance to all weather standards

  • 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.

    GEOGRAPHY Grade 11 (for Grade 11, commencing from 2008) Teachers' Instructional Manual Department of Social Sciences Faculty of Languages, Humanities and Social Sciences National Institute of Education Maharagama. 2008 i Geography Grade 11 Teachers’ Instructional Manual © National Institute of Education First Print in 2007 Faculty of Languages, Humanities and Social Sciences Department of Social Science National Institute of Education Printing: The Press, National Institute of Education, Maharagama. ii Forward Being the first revision of the Curriculum for the new millenium, this could be regarded as an approach to overcome a few problems in the school system existing at present. This curriculum is planned with the aim of avoiding individual and social weaknesses as well as in the way of thinking that the present day youth are confronted. When considering the system of education in Asia, Sri Lanka was in the forefront in the field of education a few years back. But at present the countries in Asia have advanced over Sri Lanka. Taking decisions based on the existing system and presenting the same repeatedly without a new vision is one reason for this backwardness. The officers of the National Institute of Education have taken courage to revise the curriculum with a new vision to overcome this situation. The objectives of the New Curriculum have been designed to enable the pupil population to develop their competencies by way of new knowledge through exploration based on their existing knowledge. A perfectly new vision in the teachers’ role is essential for this task. In place of the existing teacher-centred method, a pupil-centred method based on activities and competencies is expected from this new educa- tional process in which teachers should be prepared to face challenges.

  • Chatting Sri Lanka: Powerful Communications in Colonial Times
    Chatting Sri Lanka: Powerful Communications in Colonial Times Justin Siefert PhD 2016 Chatting Sri Lanka: Powerful Communications in Colonial Times Justin Siefert A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the Manchester Metropolitan University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History, Politics and Philosophy Manchester Metropolitan University 2016 Abstract: The thesis argues that the telephone had a significant impact upon colonial society in Sri Lanka. In the emergence and expansion of a telephone network two phases can be distinguished: in the first phase (1880-1914), the government began to construct telephone networks in Colombo and other major towns, and built trunk lines between them. Simultaneously, planters began to establish and run local telephone networks in the planting districts. In this initial period, Sri Lanka’s emerging telephone network owed its construction, financing and running mostly to the planting community. The telephone was a ‘tool of the Empire’ only in the sense that the government eventually joined forces with the influential planting and commercial communities, including many members of the indigenous elite, who had demanded telephone services for their own purposes. However, during the second phase (1919-1939), as more and more telephone networks emerged in the planting districts, government became more proactive in the construction of an island-wide telephone network, which then reflected colonial hierarchies and power structures. Finally in 1935, Sri Lanka was connected to the Empire’s international telephone network. One of the core challenges for this pioneer work is of methodological nature: a telephone call leaves no written or oral source behind.

  • Ground Water in the Coconut Triangle
    31 COCOS, (1983) 1, 31-34 Printed in Sri Lanka Ground water in the coconut triangle A. DENIS N. FERNANDO Ministry of Mahaweli Development, Colombo INTRODUCTION The major part of Sri Lanka's coconut production comes from the Coconut Triangle, which is the area between Puttalam, Kurunegala and Colombo. More than half the coconut lands in the Coconut Triangle are in the dry and inter­ mediate climatic rones, where the productivity is relatively low due to insufficient rainfall. It was therefore conceivable that the provision of irrigation facilities, sufficient to over come the rainfall deficit and meet the water requirement of the coconut palms, would lead to a substantial increase in coconut production. In addition the intercropping of the coconut lands would be feasible if there is suffi­ cient ground water for these crops as well. It was against this background that this study of the ground water potential was initiated. In 1973 the author prepared a reconnaisance level map of ground water potential in Sri Lanka. (Anonymous, 1973) This was a first approximation, as it was based on hydrogeological boundaries at a lower scale of mapping. In 1981 a semi-detailed Hydrogeology map was prepared by the author with more sub - divisions of the hydrogeological categories. Based on this map which was of greater accuracy and on a larger scale, a second approximation of the ground water potential was determined. HYDROGEOLOGY The accompanying Hydrogeology map of the Coconut Triangle (Fig. 1), which includes parts of the districts of Puttalam, Kuruneg3la and Gampaha, has been divided into the following major categories, viz.; 1.
