Even after execution of this Project, about 2.55 Lakh Acres will still remain to be covered by any future irrigation Project. After bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh, 7 Mandals of Khammam District was amalgamated in West Godavari District of Andhra Pradesh, in this process the intake structure of proposed Indira Sagar Lift Irrigation Project went into administrative boundary of Andhra Pradesh. As such there is a need for revision of the Indira Sagar Project in order to avoid administrative difficulties in O&M between two adjoining states. In view of above, Govt. of Telangana decided not only to integrate earlier proposed Indira Sagar and Rajiv Sagar Lift Irrigation Project into one lift irrigation Project but also to cover the Gap Ayacut which is not coming under any present or future irrigation Project. Accordingly, the project is now renamed as Sita Rama Lift Irrigation Project is being formulated to cover about 2.72 Lakh Ha of Khammam, BhadradriKothagudem&Mahabubabad Districts of Telangana in the first phase, in which it covers new ayacut of about 1,33,085 Ha and Stabilization of about 1,39,836 Ha. The Project envisages construction of Head Regulator at Dummugudem Anicut and to draw water from Godavari through an approach channel with CBL at EL. 45 m. The Approach Channel with a length of about 0.75 Km has been designed with a design discharge of 255 Cumecs (9000 Cusecs) from the River soon after the regulator and thereafter designed a gravity canal for a length of about 10.50 km and then water will be lifted from proposed 1st pump house at Village B.G.Kothuru, Aswapuram (M) with a discharge of 255 Cumecs (9000 cusecs) from El. 43.510 m to El. 67.18 m and then water will be flowing through a gravity canal for a length of about 33.10 Km crossing two major rivers Kinnerasani and Murredu at Chainage 36.25 Kms and 38.00 Km respectively and from proposed 2nd pump house at Ch. 43.900 Km near Village V.K.Ramavaram, H/O Pusugudem, Mulakalapally(M), Bhadradri- Kothagudem District with a discharge of about 250 cumec is lifted from El. 62.464 to El 110 m to Delivery Cistern at Ch. 44.650 km and then water will be flowing through a lined canal of about 12.575 km length up to proposed 3rd Pump House at km. 57.225, Kamalapuram and then water is lifted through the pumping main of about 1525 m from El. 108.238 m to El. WAPCOS Limited 1-1 Irrigation and CAD Department, SIA Study for Sita Rama Lift Irrigation Project, Govt. of Telangana Phase-I, Telangana 160 m to delivery cistern at Ch. 58.750 Km with a discharge of about 210 cumec. From this point, the Water conductor system consisting of Gravity canal and Tunnel has been proposed to irrigate the earlier proposed Rajiv SagarAyacut, including stabilisation of NSP, Wyra and Paleru projects with a ayacut of about 5,39,387 Ac (New ayacut of about 1,93,853 Acres and rest under stabilization). From the same pump house at Kamalapuram, the water is lifted to El.200 to feed ayacut (Indira SagarAyacut of about 1,35,000 Acres) covering Sathupally and enroutemandals through water conductor system. Fourth pump house has been proposed at Dibbagudem H/o Gandugulapally(V), Dammapeta(M) of Bhadradri-Kothagudem District village in which water will be lifted from El. 197 m to El. 245 m which covers command area of about 60,000 acres. Second Pressure main from the same pump house will take off and water from this point (El. 197 m) will be lifted to El. 245 m to cover an ayacut of 25000Ac. Total Stabilization of Major and Medium projects like NSP, Wyra, Lankasagar and Paleru is of about 2,76,660 Acres. Other minor irrigation Projects and PR Tanks where there is no assured irrigation source for an area of about 97,158 Ac. will also be stabilised through this Project. Also, provision for Industrial and Drinking Water Supply has also been taken into account. The proposed Sita Rama Lift Irrigation Project envisages the construction of following. Construction of Head Regulator at DummugudemAnicut on River Godavari Construction of Lined Canal of about 372 Km. Construction of Four Pump Houses Delivery Cisterns Laying of Pumping Main of about 9 Km. Cross Drainage works across Main Canal. Road Bridges wherever required. Cross Regulators and Offtakes etc. Construction of Tunnels The salient features are given in Table-1.1. Table-1.1: Salient Features of Sita Rama Lift Irrigation Project S.
