Although Negombo lagoon has functioning Fisheries Committees and a Fisheries Management Authority, in the absence of a systematic and legally recognized plan, a host of fisheries, environmental and social problems have cropped up in the lagoon which supports many fishery and non-fishery related activities. The increased intensity and diversity of activities taking place in and around the Negombo estuary, which have the effect of depleting fish and other aquatic resources and affecting water quality in the estuary include disposal of sewage, industrial effluents and domestic solid waste in the estuary, dredging and the construction of inlets into the estuary and other development activities in the area. These and the illegal land filling that have been going on for some time have reduced the estuary area, adversely impacting livelihoods of the communities. The Fisheries Development and Management Plan for Negombo lagoon has been developed to resolve the fisheries, environmental and social problems associated with the lagoon, conserve the lagoon environment and support sustainable development of fisheries in the lagoon. It adopts an ecosystem-based management of fisheries with a strong element of environment conservation. The Fisheries Development and Management Plan for Negombo lagoon presented here has been developed by a multi-agency Task Force appointed by the Interim Fisheries Management Coordinating Committee of Negombo Lagoon, under the guidance of the Department of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources, with technical and financial support from the Regional Fisheries Livelihoods Programme of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. The members of the Task Force are given in Annex 1. Nimal Hettiarachchi Director General Department of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources 4 1. Negombo lagoon and Fisheries 1.1 Negombo lagoon Fishery Management Area Negombo lagoon has been declared as a Fishery Management Area, under Section 31 of the Fisheries and Aquatic Resources Act, No. 2 of 1996, by the Minister of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources and published in the Gazette Extraordinary, No. 1415/12 of the Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka dated 18th October 2005. Negombo lagoon is a shallow basin estuary of approximately 3,164 ha in extent, situated about 20 km north of Colombo (704’-7012’ N / 79047’ – 79051’ E). It extends 12.5 km in length, 0.6 – 3.6 km in width, has a shoreline of 24 km and a mean depth of 0.65 m. It has a surface area of 35 km2 and holds 22.5 million m3 of water. The lagoon is connected to the sea by a single narrow opening, the Negombo channel segment at its northern end, which is open year round (Fig. 1). A total of thirteen islands of different sizes, mostly covered with mangrove vegetation are situated towards the outlet to the sea. The size of these islands and the several sand shoals vary from about 2 ha to slightly more than 30 ha. Negombo lagoon is part of a much larger Muthurajawela marsh - Negombo lagoon coastal wetland with a total area of 6,232 ha. The Muthurajawela marsh is 3,068 ha in extent and extends southwards from the 3,164 ha lagoon. The lagoon itself is bordered by four Divisional

  • CHAPTER 4 Perspective of the Colombo Metropolitan Area 4.1 Identification of the Colombo Metropolitan Area
    Urban Transport System Development Project for Colombo Metropolitan Region and Suburbs CoMTrans UrbanTransport Master Plan Final Report CHAPTER 4 Perspective of the Colombo Metropolitan Area 4.1 Identification of the Colombo Metropolitan Area 4.1.1 Definition The Western Province is the most developed province in Sri Lanka and is where the administrative functions and economic activities are concentrated. At the same time, forestry and agricultural lands still remain, mainly in the eastern and south-eastern parts of the province. And also, there are some local urban centres which are less dependent on Colombo. These areas have less relation with the centre of Colombo. The Colombo Metropolitan Area is defined in order to analyse and assess future transport demands and formulate a master plan. For this purpose, Colombo Metropolitan Area is defined by: A) areas that are already urbanised and those to be urbanised by 2035, and B) areas that are dependent on Colombo. In an urbanised area, urban activities, which are mainly commercial and business activities, are active and it is assumed that demand for transport is high. People living in areas dependent on Colombo area assumed to travel to Colombo by some transport measures. 4.1.2 Factors to Consider for Future Urban Structures In order to identify the CMA, the following factors are considered. These factors will also define the urban structure, which is described in Section 4.3. An effective transport network will be proposed based on the urban structure as well as the traffic demand. At the same time, the new transport network proposed will affect the urban structure and lead to urban development.
