The Report gives an insight into the organisation structure, functions and activities of CWC highlighting the contribution made in the development and management of Water Resources in the country. CWC continued to forge ahead in providing the necessary leadership and guidance for the development of the water sector and provided necessary support to the Ministry of Water Resources, River Development and Ganga Rejuvenation on all technical and policy matters during the year 2015-16. Officers of CWC represented several committees and contributed substantially on various issues. CWC provided technical assistance to the Ministry on various issues related to inter- state matters, sharing of waters with neighbouring countries, bilateral treaties and MoUs etc. Regular activities of appraisal of major and medium irrigation projects and other water resources development schemes, monitoring of major, medium and extension/ renovation/ modernization (ERM) projects, environmental issues related to projects, design of hydraulic structures, hydrological observations and studies and flood forecasting services were successfully carried out during the year. During 2015-16, CWC has provided design consultancy for DPR preparation and project construction in respect of 59 water resources development projects in India and neighbouring countries namely Afghanistan, Bhutan and Nepal. We have undertaken techno-economic appraisal of water resources development projects leading to acceptance of 25 projects comprising of 12 major & medium irrigation projects and 13 flood control projects by the Advisory Committee. CWC has undertaken monitoring of projects as well as examination of release proposals which resulted in release of funds to 33 Major and Medium Irrigation Projects to the tune of `2327.80 Crore under AIBP programme. CWC has been monitoring storage position of 91 reservoirs in the country which has helped the states in planning of water utilisation during non-monsoon period. The timely issue of 4055 flood forecasts (with 98.1 % accuracy) during the monsoon period of 2015 has helped concerned authorities / society in effective flood fighting and relief. CWC has always worked for providing quality service to the nation in the field of water resources development and management. As a first step, the Dam Safety Organisation, CWC has acquired ISO 9001: 2008 certification for its Quality Management Systems from the Bureau of Indian Standards.
