FOREWORD

It gives me great pleasure to note that the guidelines for taking up

detailed surveys, design and method of preparation of detailed estimate of
minor irrigation tank has been prepared by Mr. Mohd. Mahboob Hussain,
Executive Engineer, Inter State & Water Resources, Irrigation & CAD
Department, Hyderabad for guidance to in-service engineers and newly
recruited engineers of Irrigation department. In this book there are sample
proposals, designs, drawings and detailed estimates of several components of
Minor Irrigation scheme, which will be useful for guidance.

Mr. Mohd. Mahboob Hussain, Executive Engineer has described how to

take up detailed surveys, proposal finalization, design, drawing and detailed
estimation based on the "Guide-lines for preparation of project reports for
surface water minor irrigation works" and compiled the details required for
formulation of Detailed Project Report of Minor Irrigation scheme. I appreciate
this activity in the field of minor irrigation. I hope that this effort will result in
benefiting Irrigation department engineers. I am sure that these guidelines on
taking up detailed survey and method of preparation of detailed estimate of
Minor Irrigation scheme would not only be beneficial to Telangana State, but
also to other States in the country. This is more relevant in the present context
of utmost importance given by Telangana State Government to the Minor
Irrigation sector through "Mission Kakatiya".

 PREFACE

Water is necessary for life on earth. In India minor irrigation tanks/ponds

and lakes play an important role in conserving water for various needs of the
commodities. Proper investigation, design and DPR preparation of new minor
irrigation tanks is required for optimal management of water resources. Further
many existing minor irrigation tanks have become defunct due to inadequate
maintenance. Proper investigation is to be taken up and estimates are to be
prepared for improvement and restoration of minor irrigation tanks for
production of agriculture.

Based on my experience as an irrigation engineer in minor irrigation sector,

I felt the need for a guidelines booklet written in simple and lucid language that
can be easily followed by both newly recruited irrigation engineers and in-service
irrigation engineers. This guideline booklet has three parts namely (i) field
investigation & method of preparation of Preliminary Investigation Report (PIR)
of M.I. schemes (ii) taking up detailed survey, design and method of preparation
of detailed estimate/DPR of M.I. schemes and (iii) taking up detailed survey and
preparation of detailed estimate of RRR of water bodies as per Govt. of India
norms and rehabilitation of M.I. tanks under ―Mission Kakatiya‖.

This book contains procedure of preparation of PIR and detailed survey,

sample hydrology, sample proposals, design, sample estimates and sample
drawings for new M.I. tanks and for rehabilitation of existing M.I. tanks.

I hope that the guidelines will be useful to Irrigation Engineers of Irrigation &
CAD Department, Telangana State in Minor Irrigation Sector.

I) FIELD INVESTIGATION AND PREPARATION OF PRELIMINARY
INVESTIGATION REPORT

1) INTRODUCTION, RECONNAISSANCE SURVEY & SITE SELECTION

The term ― Tank ― as used throughout India refers to a small storage

reservoir commonly serving an irrigation area ranging from few acres to 5000
acres of ayacut. Historically, tanks were the principal source of irrigation in India
prior to advent of large dams and major canals systems. They still account for a
significant proportion of the total irrigated area in the central and southern
states. For large semi-arid areas not served by major canal systems, tanks are
in fact the only possible source of irrigation.

In view of its small size, a tank and its irrigated area are commonly
associated with a single village or more, and form an integral part of its socio-
economic structure.

Irrigation projects in Telangana state are dealt under three categories:

(a) Major Irrigation Projects (above 10,000 ha ayacut)

(b) Medium Irrigation Projects (between 2000 ha to 10,000 ha ayacut)
(c) Minor Irrigation Tanks ( up to 2,000 ha ayacut)

Types of Minor Irrigation schemes in Telangana state are as follows:

(a) Minor Irrigation Tanks

(b) Anicut ( Diversion Structure)
(c) Feeder Channel
(d) Percolation Tank
(e) Check Dam
(f) Restoration of Long Breached Tanks

For formation of any minor irrigation scheme, it is essential to prepare and

submit Preliminary Investigation Report (P.I.R) in the prescribed proforma for
obtaining the Hydrological clearance from the Engineer-in-Chief (AW), Irrigation
& CAD Department, Government of Telangana, Jalasoudha Building, Irrum
Manzil, Hyderabad. The proforma contains details like location of scheme,
catchment area, influencing Rain Gauge Station, 75% dependable rainfall, yield
available at 75% dependable RF etc. Besides the above information the
feasibility of scheme is also reported in the P.I.R. Hence, it was felt necessary to
have guidelines for field investigation and steps/ method of preparation of P.I.R
of minor irrigation schemes for the in-service irrigation engineers and newly
joined engineers who are not conversant with procedure of preparation of P.I.R.
Various steps to be taken and procedure for preparation of P.I.R is described in
detail in this book and a sample P.I.R along with copy of Strange‘s table is also
enclosed for ready reference.

 It has been observed from the last few years in the irrigation department
that the higher officers are facing a setback on account of heavy retirements of
engineers resulting in lack of engineers with investigation knowledge in minor
irrigation sector. It is because of this that the department is moving toward
privatization to get the work done from private agencies.

In view of the above circumstances, it was felt necessary to compile this

book to guide, promote and to build self-confidence among the in-service
engineers and newly recruited engineers in irrigation department about
investigation work procedure for formulation of sound proposals of minor
irrigation scheme in Telangana state.

RECONNAISSANCE SURVEY AND SITE SELECTION CRITERIA

A reconnaissance survey is rapid survey or critical inspection of an area,

which is made for the purpose of selection and initial examination of an
engineering project. The object is to obtain sufficient data so as to enable the
elimination of poor features and location and also to determine whether the site
of project is suitable for a further and more detailed study.

Even before the element of a project can be visualized, the area must be
thoroughly reconnoitered. However, before the reconnaissance, it is necessary to
thoroughly understand the need, extent and limitation of the project. The
beginning should thus be made from the basic factors.

For example, if it be desired to provide irrigation for a known area, the

basis would be the total area involved and the water needed. Investigation
should then be directed towards finding the most economical and suitable
source. Conversely, a stream may contain enough water, which may be going
waste, where irrigation would be beneficial.

Maps published by the Survey of India will be the chief source of

information prior to going to the field for reconnaissance of the area.

Information/data: On receipt of representation for formation/ restoration of

breached Minor Irrigation scheme, the S.I. Sheet (Topo sheet) is selected which
covers the village and stream on which the M.I. Tank is proposed. The S.I.
sheets are available in Division office. The influencing Rain gauge station should
be identified from ―Thiesen Polygon‖ maps available in Division office. Now a
day‘s Mandal head quarters are also Rain Gauge stations (RGS). Rainfall data
registers are also available in Division office showing the data of last 40 years.
Copy of updated Master Plan records of Minor Irrigation is also available in
Division office.

Site selection criteria should be followed by proceeding to the site with

local authorities for reconnaissance.

4
Site Selection criteria:

1) The stream / river in the Topo sheet should be identified.

2) The site is to be selected by locating the tank preferably in the gorge
portion to create more capacity with minimum length of bund. The site
should have good flanks on either side of stream which helps to abut bund
to higher level of the ground.
3) If the farmers do not permit, then go along the stream either upstream or
downstream and find out suitable site with good flanks available for
storage of water in respect of length of bund. Those Minor Irrigation
schemes are economical whose length of bund is as short as possible and
at the same time it should have suitable surplus course arrangement.
4) One should avoid the site where there is weathered zone and porous soils
in bed of the MI tank because any storage in this zone will lead to loss of
stored water before the crop period by means of heavy percolation and
seepage.
5) It should be ensured that there is no existing source 2 to 3 Km on
upstream and downstream side of proposed MI tank.
6) Site should be selected keeping in view that, the Reserved Forest area is
not encroached either for bund or foreshore submergence.
7) After site selection, the catchment boundary in Topo sheet with pencil
should be marked.
8) Based on the topography of the catchment, the catchment area (CA)
should be classified at site on the following lines:
(a) C.A is to be classified as ―Good‖ if there is hilly terrain in the entire
catchment.
(b) C.A. is to be classified as ―Average‖ if there are only gentle sloping and
plain lands without hillocks.
(c) C.A is to be classified as ―½ Good + ½ Average‖ if there is partly hilly
and partly sloping area in the catchment.
(d) C.A is to be classified as ―bad‖ if there are plain lands in catchment.
9) The Monsoon & Annual rainfall data of influencing R.G.S should be
collected from the Director of Economics & Statistics, Telangana state, if it
is not available in Division office.

2) FIELD DATA TO BE COLLECTED

a) A copy of village map from revenue authorities should be obtained.

b) The position of proposed Minor irrigation tank should be marked in the
village map.
c) Beneficiary details in Statement showing the name of beneficiaries, survey
number, ayacut and cast of beneficiary etc., should be collected (Copy of
beneficiary statement is enclosed)
d) Tentative ayacut likely to be benefited on either side of the stream should
be marked in village map.
e) Enquiry should be made about the existing irrigation tanks on upstream
side of the proposed M.I. tank. Utilization or settled ayacut / irrigated
ayacut of such tanks from Revenue records should be obtained. After that,

5
 these tanks have to be inspected and located in the Topo sheet, if they
are not found in Topo sheet.
f) Similarly, enquiry should be made about the existing irrigation tanks on
the downstream side of the proposed M.I. tank site. After that, inspection
of these tanks should be carried out and locate in the Topo sheet, if they
are not found in Topo Sheet.
g) Utilization / settled ayacut and irrigated ayacut of such tanks from
Revenue records should be procured.

4) Procedure for preparation of P.I.R: -

After field inspection and collection of field data, one has to work out the
following calculations for preparation of P.I.R:-

(1) Work out the Global co-ordinates of the proposed site of MI tank from
Topo sheet.
(2) Find out sub-basin and sub-group in which the proposed schemes fall from
sub- group map and M.P. record available.
(3) Mark the catchment area with pencil, both free and intercepted, of the
proposed M.I. tank and find out free C.A., and intercepted C.A., with the
help of Plane-meter / graph sheet.
(4) With the help of Thiesen‘s Polygon map available, find out, which rain
gauge station (R.G.S) is influencing the catchment area of proposed M.I.
Tank.
(5) Sometimes the catchment area is also influenced by two or more rain
gauge stations, for which the yield is to be worked out using weighted
rainfall value.
(6) Note down the yearly rainfall data of the influencing rain gauge station for
the last 40 years and find out the average annual rainfall.
(7) Note down the monthly rainfall data of the influencing R.G.S., for the last
40 years Monsoon period (June to October). Find out average monsoon
rainfall by dividing total monsoon rainfall by 40. Now arrange the
monsoon rainfall data in descending order. The 30th year value gives you
75% Dep. rainfall. 26th year value gives you 65% Dep. rainfall.
(8) Using the Strange‘s table, work out yield / Sq. Mile for 50%,65% and
75% Dependable rainfall for ―Good‖ and ―Average‖ catchment. To obtain
yield of ―½ Good + ½ Average‖ catchment just average the values for
Good and Average catchment areas and tabulate as follows:

7
 [Link]. Nature of Catchment 50% Dep. 65%Dep 75% Dep.
1. Good
2. ½ Good + ½ Average
3. Average

(9) Calculate total yield available at 65% Dep. at the proposed site by just
multiplying the catchment area to yield per Sq. Mile at 65% Dep. for
influencing only one rain gauge station.
(10) Calculate total yield available at 75% Dep. at the proposed site by just
multiplying the catchment area to yield per Sq. Mile at 75% Dep. for
influencing only one rain gauge station.
(11) Calculate the net yield available at site by deducting the yield utilization of
upper sources if any. Then propose the yield utilization for the proposed
M.I. tank only up to 60% of the net yield available.
(12) For computation of 75% Dep. Yield for any catchment under the influence
of two or more RGS, the following procedure should be adopted:
i) Latest and continuous rainfall data of 40 years for all the rain gauge
stations having influence on catchment may be gathered.
ii) Year wise yield for each RGS influencing area (as per Strange‘s table and
Thiessen Polygon method) may be calculated.
iii) The above year wise yield of two or more RGS may be summed up to
obtain the total yield of the entire catchment in each year.
iv) Yields obtained above may be arranged in descending order and then
75% dependable yield may be considered as the yield from the
catchment.
(13) Calculate the net yield available at site by deducting the yield utilization of
upper sources if any. Then propose the yield utilization for MI scheme in
question such that some yield is let down stream side, depending upon
demand under L.R.R tank if any.
(14) Discuss fully the effect of U.R.R. and U.R.R. tanks.
(15) Report should cover following points:
(i) Distance and direction of proposed site from village.
(ii) Mention who has represented for this scheme.
(iii) If there is any balance yield in the sub group for proposed minor
irrigation tank.
(iv) Suitability of site for construction of M.I. tank for irrigation purpose.
(v) Whether the scheme is feasible or not.
(vi) Any other special information regarding the proposed M.I. tank based
on local site conditions.
(vii) Request for according Hydrological Clearance for the minor irrigation
tank.

5) PROCEDURE FOR DISCUSSING L.R.R. AND U.R.R.
Based on the Minor Irrigation guidelines, U.R.R and L.R.R tank yield utilization
may be calculated as indicated below using duty given in Table-1.1:
(A) For irrigated wet crops (khariff)
Table – 1.1 – Giving Details of Duty for calculation of Yield utilization

(B) For irrigated dry crops (Khariff) up to 25‖ monsoon R.F……15 Acre/Mcft
(C) For irrigated dry crops (Khariff) above 25‖ monsoon R.F…..20Acre/Mcft
(Note:- Monsoon rainfall relates to rainfall occurring between June to
December both months inclusive).
Lower riparian right (L.R.R) are to be worked out up to tail end if there are
direct drawls. If there are series of lower down tanks, the L.R.R is to be checked
up to lowest tank, till its surplus meet with the main river on which the medium
and major projects are constructed.
The following four cases of L.R.R and U.R.R are discussed as detailed
below:
Case(a): Where there are no URR tanks and also no LRR tanks.
Case(b): Where there is URR tank and no LRR tank.
Case(c): Where there is URR tank and LRR tank in d/s of proposed site.
Case(d): Where there are no URR tanks but there are LRR tanks.

9
Case a: Where there are no URR tanks and no LRR tanks

Fig. 1.1 – Case – a:- Where there are no U.R.R. tanks no L.R.R. tanks

U.R.R.: - There are no schemes / tanks on the upstream side of the proposed
new tank. Since it is proposed in free catchment area, U.R.R. will not
be affected.

L.R.R.: - There are no tanks on this stream up to a distance of nearly 10 km.

Moreover this stream joins another big stream on which also there are
no tanks. Hence L.R.R. will not be affected.

10
Case b: Where there is URR tank and no LRR tanks

Fig. 1.2 – Case – b:- Where there is U.R.R. tank and no L.R.R. tanks

U.R.R.: - There is a tank on the upstream side of the proposed site by name
Chinna Cheruv with settled ayacut of 41 acres Paddy. The C.A. of
U.R.R. tank is 0.69 [Link]. The yield per square mile at 75%
dependability is 12.389 Mcft. Hence the total yield available at URR
tank is 0.69 * 12.389 = 8.548 Mcft. Yield required for 41 acres ayacut
of URR tank = 41/6 = 6.833 Mcft. Hence the balance yield available at
U.R.R. tank is 8.548-6.833=1.715 Mcft. Hence U.R.R. will not be
affected.

L.R.R.: - There are no tanks on this stream in the downstream of proposed site
up to a distance of nearly 10 km. Moreover this stream joins another
big stream on which also there are no tanks. Hence L.R.R. will not be
affected.

11
Case C: Where there is URR tanks in U/S and LRR tanks in D/S of the
proposed site.

Fig. 1.3 – Case – c:- Where there is U.R.R. tanks in U/s and L.R.R.
tanks in D/s of the proposed site

U.R.R.: - There is a U.R.R. tank by name Mallamma Cheruvu with settled ayacut
of 55 acres wet. The C.A of the U.R.R. tank is 1.139 [Link]. The
yield at 75% dependability is 11.45 Mcft per [Link]. The total yield
available at URR tank is 1.139 * 11.45 =13.04 Mcft. Yield required for
the U.R.R. tank =55/6=9.16 Mcft. Hence surplus yield available at
URR tank is 13.04-9.16=3.88 Mcft. Hence U.R.R. will not be affected.

L.R.R.: - There is a tank in L.R.R. by name Pedda Cheruvu with settled ayacut of
140 acres wet. The total C.A of LRR tank is 4.615 [Link]. The total
yield available at L.R.R. tank = 4.615 * 11.45 = 52.84 Mcft. The
proposed utilization for new tank is 10 Mcft. The total utilization of
LRR tanks = 140/6 = 23.33 Mcft. The surplus yield available at L.R.R.
tanks = 52.84 - 9.16 - 23.33 = 10.35 Mcft. Hence L.R.R. will not be
affected.

12
Case d: Where there are no URR tanks but L.R.R. tanks

Fig. 1.4 – Case – d:- Where there are no U.R.R. tanks but L.R.R. tanks

U.R.R. :- There are no schemes / tanks on the upstream side of the proposed
site since it is proposed in free catchment. Hence U.R.R. will not be
affected.

L.R.R. : - There is an LRR tank by name Pedda Cheru, Rudraram (V) with settled
ayacut of 110 Ac on this stream before it joins main stream. The
catchment area of L.R.R. tank is 6.18 [Link]. The yield per [Link]
@75% dependability of influencing R.G.S is 10.58 Mcft. The yield
available at L.R.R. tank is 10.58 * 6.18 = 65.384 Mcft. Further, there
are two tanks in this catchment area above L.R.R. tank and below the
proposed site by name Chinna Cheruvu, Gollapalli village and Oora
cheruvu, Pilaram village with settled ayacut of 30 acres and 55 acres
respectively. Proposed utilization of new scheme is 10 Mcft.

Yield required for LRR and other two tanks = (110+30+55)/6 = 32.50 Mcft.

The balance yield available at L.R.R. tank after deducting U.R.R utilization and
proposed utilization = 65.384 – 32.5 -10.0 = 22.884 Mcft.

Hence LRR will not be affected.

26. U.R.R.:-There are three tanks in the upstream side of proposed site. The
immediate U.R.R tank is Appaiah Kunta of Banda Elka Charla(V). The catchment

17
area of Appaiah Kunta is 0.936 [Link]. The total yield available at Appaiah
Kunta is 0.936*14.149= 13.24 MCft.
The three tanks are
(1) Puslod Kunta of Banda Elka Cherla –-- 2 acre- 27 Guntas.
(2) Marri Kunta of Banda Elka cherla ---- 7 acre- 05 Guntas
(3) Appaiah Kunta of Banda Elkacherla ---- 12 acre- 20 Guntas

Total ayacut of U.R.R. tanks= 22 acre- 12 Guntas.

The yield required for above three tanks considering wet cultivation is
22.33/6= 3.72 Mcft. The balance yield available at U.R.R tank= 13.24 – 3.72 =
9.52 MCft.

Hence, U.R.R will not be effected.

27. L.R.R:- The immediate L.R.R. tank is Mothkul Kunta of Gundal(V), Doma
(M), Ranga Reddy Disrict and its C.A is 6.523 Sq. Miles. The yield available at
L.R.R. tank = 6.523* 14.149 = 92.29 MCft.

The tanks in catchment area of L.R.R tank and below Oora Cheru, Chellapur (V),
Kulkacherla (M), R R Dist. Are as follows:

i) Wadla Kunta, Banda Elka cherla (V), Kulkacherla : 4 acre 34 Gunta

(M)
ii) Pedda Cheru, Dadapur (V), Doma (M) : 74 acre 03 Gunta
iii) Papan Kunta, Dadapur (V), Doma(M) : 23 acre 24 Gunta
iv) Elgula Kunta, Gundal (V), Doma (M) : 35 acre 27 Gunta
v) Mothkul Kunta, Gundal (V), Doma (M) : 38 acre 32 Gunta
Total ayacut : 177 acres–00 Gunta

Yield required for the above 5 tanks= 177/ 6= 29.50 MCft.

Existing utilization under Oora Cheru, Chellapur(V) as per 10 years Revenue

Statement is (85 acres- 28 Guntas) = 85.70/6 = 14.28 MCft.

The balance yield available at L.R.R. tank after deducting U.R.R. utilizations, 5
no. L.R.R. tanks utilization, Oora Cheru utilization and proposed new utilization
of Oora Cheru= 92.29 – 3.72 – 29.50 – 14.28 – 11.00 = 33.79 MCft.

Since the proposed new utilization of 11.00 MCft. is less than the balance yield
available at L.R.R tank, L.R.R. will not be affected.

28. Report:- This tank is situated adjacent to and North side of Chellapur
village, Kulkacherla mandal of Ranga Reddy district. This tank belongs to
Panchayat Raj department with registered ayacut of 85 acres- 28 Guntas as per
10 years Revenue Statement of M.R.O, Kulkacherla mandal, Ranga Reddy
district. The Sarpanch and Ryots of Chellapur village have requested for raising

 F.T.L of Oora cheru. This scheme falls in IV-4 sub- group of K-7 Lower Krishna
sub- basin.

The scheme is irrigating its full ayacut as per local enquiry and 10
Revenue Statement. As land is available to irrigate about another 100 acres, the
villagers have requested for raising F.T.L of Oora Cheru, Chellapur (V). The
U.R.R and L.R.R. is discussed above in detail. Patta privte lands will come under
submergence due to raising F.T.L.

There is a chance of raising F.T.L of about 0.80 meter, since the flanks on
either side are not so high. Only after detailed surveys the possibility of raising
F.T.L can be fully examined. Moreover this tank has to be handed over to
Irrigation Department from Panchayath Raj Department.

 II) Detailed Survey & Method of Preparation of estimate/ DPR

Minor Irrigation (M.I) Tank: - It is defined as a small tank which is

constructed by means of an earth bund across a stream/river with a surplus weir
& sluices. Ayacut for M.I. tanks is less than or equal to 5000 acres.

14) Purpose of M.I. Tank: - The main purpose of minor irrigation tank is to
provide irrigation facilities to local irrigable lands in upland areas where either
major or medium irrigation projects canals are not available.

A. SELECTION OF SITES:

The following criteria is to be considered while selecting a site for

formation of minor irrigation tank.
 In areas where sufficient command in the vicinity of the site is available
and also where the construction of the ideal reach of the canal is
economical for irrigation tanks.
 The site should be in the reach of a stream, preferably passing through as
much large cultivated land as possible.
 Site should be selected based on the good high flanks on either side with
good storage capacity in its fore shore area.
 The area proposed to be benefited should have at least 9‖ Soil Cover.
Deep soil areas should be selected, so that there is minimum percolation.
 Sites are to be selected where there is no other irrigation scheme.

DESIGN-CRITERIA:

 The utilization of yield for all the minor irrigation tanks in a basin should
be restricted to 60% to 70% of the total available yield in the basin area.

The ayacut proposed to be benefited by minor irrigation tanks should be below

or equal to 5000 acres or 2000 hectares.

Preliminary Investigation:-

For formation of any M.I tank, it is essential to submit Preliminary

Investigation Report (PIR) in the prescribed format for getting the Hydrological
clearance to utilize certain quantity of water from the Engineer-in-Chief (AW),
Irrigation & CAD Department, Jalasoudha, Irrum Manzil, Hyderabad-82 through
the Chief Engineer, Minor Irrigation, Jalasoudha, Hyderabad-82 in terms of
[Link]. No.87, I & CAD (project wing-COD) Department, dated 12-06-2002.

27
15) Detailed survey, Capacity and Surplus Course Survey:

A) Head works survey:

First fixing of alignment of bund is to be done by taking up reconnaissance

survey of site. Site should be selected based on the good high flanks on either
side with good storage capacity in its fore shore area, so that length of bund is
less / optimum and submergence area is less/optimum. By eye judgment,
ranging rods along the alignment of bund selected can be fixed.

(i) Chain & compass survey: -

Chain & compass survey has to be conducted. This is required to prepare survey
plan of tank and to know the total length of M.I. tank. Chain survey for the
entire length of proposed earthen bund of M.I. tank should be conducted duly
fixing chainage for every 20 to 25 m. Whole circle bearing for the entire length
of earthen bund should be taken. The survey plan of minor irrigation tank should
now be drawn with reference to North direction.

(ii) Steps involved in Conducting Longitudinal Section (L.S) & Cross

Section (C.S) survey:-

1) First conduct the Double Check Bench Mark(DCBM) survey to bring the
G.T.S benchmark to site, or fix a Temporary Bench Mark (TBM) on a
nearby rock or permanent structure as value +100.00.
2) Take levels at each and every chainage of 20 to 25mt interval along the
length of bund. This is used for drawing L. S. of bund, which shows the
existing ground profile along bund line.
3) Take cross-section levels at every chainage at 3 to 5 m interval for about
5 m to 30 m tentatively on either side of centre line of bund depending up
on bottom width of earthen bund.
4) Work out average ground levels at each chainage from cross section
levels, so that height of bund can be calculated. From this height of bund
the areas of each item of bund can be picked up from ready reckoner
table given in M.I. guidelines booklet.

B) Capacity Survey:-

There are various methods for conducting capacity survey of tank. Generally we
conduct following types of survey:
i) Contour survey (Stadia or Tachometry survey)
ii) Block level survey

Before taking up capacity survey, fix Lowest Bed Level (L.B.L) at a lowest
point on upstream side of bund line such that it is about 10m to 15m distance
from upstream toe of the bund, where capacity of tank is supposed to be zero.
28
Generally 1m interval contours are surveyed for minor irrigation tanks. Number
of contours to be surveyed are decided based on the gross capacity required,
which is again based on the hydrological clearance accorded and number of
fillings adopted as per M.I. guidelines.

(i) Contour Survey:-Contour survey is taken up from a point along bund line
on left flank and picking up points of that level upstream side (i.e., bed side)
and closing contour point on the bund line on right flank, as shown in figure
below. Again for next higher level contour the above procedure should be
followed. One extra contour is surveyed to be on safer side to get the
required gross capacity.

(ii) Block Leveling:-If the bed side of the proposed tank is uniformly sloping
then 10mx10m block leveling can also be taken up for the entire foreshore
area of tank. After block levels, 1 meter interval contours can be drawn by
interpolation method.
Draw the survey plan of earthen bund and contours on upstream side of
bund line to scale. Work out the area of each contour enclosing to bund line. By
knowing the contour level and its area, capacity table can be prepared. The
proforma of capacity table is given below for ready reference.

L.S of the M.I. tank can now be drawn. A sample L.S of bund is shown
below for ready reference. Cross-sections of the bund at each chainage as per
M.I guidelines should be drawn. The earthen bund sections for different height of
bunds are given in M.I. Guidelines booklet.
C) Survey for surplus course:

Chain & Compass survey is to be conducted for surplus course. LS & CS levels
are also to be taken for surplus course till it joins stream. This is required for
design of drops along surplus course for smooth disposal of flood water.
Scale for L.S drawing be 1 cm = 20 m (horizontal) & 1cm= 1 m (vertical)

 18) Survey of Block levels/ Net levels on u/s & d/s of bund on either
flanks for O. R. removal:

Block levels / Net levels are to be taken on both the flanks on upstream and
downstream side of bund line for distance of the length of weir designed, because
weir can be proposed on any one of flank. Block levels are used for working out
Obstruction Removal (O.R) quantity on upstream and downstream side of the
proposed weir portion. These block levels are taken for 10mx 10m when ground
levels are uniform without undulations and 5mx5m when ground undulations are
more. The obstruction removal is required up to apron level on downstream side of
weir and 0.22 m below the crest of High coefficient weir on upstream side, so that
the maximum flood discharge is disposed off safely into the stream. L.S & C.S
levels are to be taken up along the surplus course from the weir till it joins stream
on the downstream side of the weir.

Sample net levels vide fig-2.3 and O.R. calculations are shown below:

19) DETAILED SURVEY FOR CANALS:

 The detailed survey for canals can be taken up once Sill Level of sluice is
fixed.

 The sluice position should be fixed in such a way that entire RCC Hume pipe
is buried below natural ground level across the earthen bund both on left
flank and right flank. Moreover, canal survey should be taken up in such a
manner that canal bed levels are minimum 1 meter below ground level. This
is because canals are safe in cutting.

 Canal alignment has to be fixed first by tracing the points of ground levels
with one meter cutting below Ground Level (G L) duly taking fly levels.
Chain & Compass survey should then be taken up. The chain survey is done
by taking 1 chain=20m to 25 m starting from sluice point along the bund till
the proposed ayacut is covered by canal. Once the alignment is fixed, we
have to take whole circle bearing with the help of Prismatic Compass for
entire length of canal from all Apex points along the alignment.

 Center levels at all chainages should be taken up along the canal alignment.
This is called longitudinal section levels which depicts the ground profile
along canal alignment.

 Cross section levels at all chainages of canal alignment should also be taken
up which is used for drawing cross sections of canal at each and every chain,
so that earthwork excavation and banking quantities of canal can be worked
out.

 Apart from above block levels/ net levels should be taken up at canal
crossing cart track, road or stream or for proposed Drops etc., for design and
estimate preparation of CD & CM structures across canal.

20) A sample L.S. of canal is shown below in fig-2.4 and canal alignment
(i.e., survey plan) vide fig-2.5:

21) Leads of material to be used for proposed Minor Irrigation Tank :

While taking up detailed survey enquiries should be made about quarries of

different materials like homogeneous soil, B.C. soil for hearting zone, metal,
revetment stones, sand etc. The lead (i.e., distance) of each and every material to
be used for construction of tank should be verified.

Enquiries should be made about the availability of RCC Hume pipes for sluice
of the scheme.

Quarry map can now be prepared not to scale and appended to the detailed
estimate.

A sample quarry map is shown below fig-2.6 for ready reference.

22) Trial Pits:- Trial pits should be got excavated to know the soil strata for
formation of bund.

a) The trial pit along bund line:

i) Trial pits along bund line is to be taken at minimum 100m intervals and at
close intervals where the terrain steeply changes or where soil strata are
suddenly varying.
ii) The purpose of trial pits is to ascertain the strata up to ½ F.T.L depth.

b) The trial pits along weir, sluice and apron etc:

i) Trial pits along weir line are to be taken at minimum 15m intervals. Trial
pits should also be taken at abutments.
ii) Similarly one trial pit at the proposed sluice is to be taken.
iii) Trial pits are to be taken in apron portion and fore shore area.
c) The trial pit along left and right canals:

Trial pits along canal is to be taken at minimum 100m intervals and at close
intervals where the terrain steeply changes or where soil strata are suddenly
varying.

d) The trial pit size normally should be 1.25mx 1.25m for a depth of 2 to 2.5
meters. This position of trial pits and trial pits classification details are to be
marked both on L. S. of bund and foreshore area Maps, the weir plans and L.S
of canal. Sample L.S. of bund vide fig-2.7 is shown below:

Fixing of Capacity of M.I. tank:

If the hydrological clearance is given for say 12.00 M cft & if the average
monsoon RF is more than 30‖ , then 2 filling is to be adopted as per M.I. guidelines
(from above table).
Generally 10% to 15% dead storage is provided which is meant for
sedimentation of M.I. tank, if life of the Minor Irrigation tank is taken as 25 years.

If life of the Minor Irrigation tank is taken as 50 years (i.e., for M.I. tanks
taken up with JICA assistance), 20% dead storage is to be provided.

Then Net Capacity=12.00/2= 6.00 Mcft.

Assuming 12% dead storage, the dead storage will be 6.00*12/100= 0.72 Mcft.
The level corresponding to 0.72 Mcft. storage capacity in capacity table is called Sill
level of sluice.
The Gross capacity= 6.00+0.72= 6.72 Mcft. The level corresponding to gross
storage capacity is called Full Tank Level (F.T.L).

If the sill capacity and F.T.L capacity are not directly available in Capacity
table, then it should be worked out by interpolation method to get the Sill level and
F.T.L. from capacity table.

Note:- The higher capacity as worked out by (a) regime/working table

method and (b) by the above filling table method may be adopted for fixing
capacity of M.I. Tank.

L.R.R:- This stream joins Kagna River after traversing about 13 km and more over
there are no tanks in between proposed site and Kagna River, hence L.R.R. will not
be effected.

42
Fixing of F.T.L & SILL:-

The F.T.L. is fixed @ RL + 102.800 at which the capacity is 6.0384267 Mcft.

The Sill level is fixed at RL +99.00 at which the capacity is 0.64997062 Mcft. The
dead storage up to sill level is 10.80% of gross capacity. Hence the net capacity of
tank will be 6.0384261-0.64997062 = 5.38845 Mcft. Since the average monsoon
rainfall is more than 30‘‘ (i.e., 31.04‘‘), hence 2 filling is considered for fixing the
capacity of tank. Hence the total utilization will be 2x5.38845=10.7769 Mcft as
against the 10.80 Mcft hydrological clearance accorded by the Chief Engineer, Minor
Irrigation, Hyderabad vide proceedings No. DCE (MI)/OT2-T3/63/2001, dt; 22-07-
2002. Accordingly the demand tables as per modified Penman method for 246 acres
I.D. Khariff ground nut & 67 acres (27 Ha) I.D. Rabi Jawar are prepared. For 246 Ac
I.D. Khariff & 67 Ac I.D. Rabi, the regime table is prepared and is tallied for the end
capacity just above the Sill level of sluice.

25) Fixing of location of Weir:

Location of weir is proposed along bund line at such a point on either left or
right flank that the foundation of weir is buried below natural ground level. Top of
foundation level is taken as Apron level. Full tank level minus Apron level is the
height of weir body wall.

Fixing of location of Sluices:

Location of Sluices is proposed along bund line on either side of stream such
that the 800mmØ RCC Hume pipe barrel portion of sluice is completely buried
below natural ground level.

A sample latest 40 years Annual Rainfall data, Monsoon Rainfall data &
Monthly Monsoon Rainfall data are given below which is used for working out yield,
Rainfall distribution, yield distribution & Rainfall distribution @ 50% dependability.
These are used for preparation of Demand Tables (both Khariff & Rabi crops) and

27) Maximum flood discharge calculations by Rational method and
Dicken‟s formula.
A- Rational Method:-
27) Sample calculations of one of the M.I. tank are shown below:
Catchment area = 1.06 Sq. miles –or- 2.745 Sq km.
L = Length of stream= 2.15 Km
W= Width of catchment= 1.15 km
L / W= 2.15/1.15 =1.869: 1 < 4:1
Choosing of run-off curve. Table of run-off curve given at page 52 of M.I.
guidelines.
Table – 2.12 of Run-off curve number for hydrological soil group of Black soil
for this M.I. Tank.
Percentage Run-off curve Number line
[Link]. Land use area of number percentage
catchment
1 Cultivated crop 15 85 1275
2 Cultivated paddy Nil 95 0
3 Forest / Gardens 85 70 5950
4 Waste lands nil 90 0
Total 100 7225
Weighted curve number=7225/ 100= 72.25 or say 72
Hence adopt curve number 72.
The maximum one day rainfall is read from Isohyets map vide the CE, MI,
Hyderabad circular memo no. DCE(MI)/ OT1-T4/ 28556/ 65, dated 29-1-86 duly
locating the proposed M.I. Tank position in map with help of latitude and longitude.
The value of one day maximum rainfall read as 170 mm.

Note: Latest 25 years 24- hours Isopluvial map published by IMD, New
Delhi published in September, 2007 is given below. The maximum one day
rainfall can be interpolated and used for MFD calculation from this map. 50
years 24-hours Isopluvial map is also enclosed.

To find the value of Q (i.e., discharge), read Graph-II of Black soil (given in MI
guideline booklet) for curve number 72 at 170 mm maximum one day rainfall, the
value of Q read for this scheme is 99.

Time to reach peak=Tp= 0.48*(A)0.28

= 0.48*(2.745)0.28
Tp= 0.6368 hr,
MFD= q = (0.146*A*Q)/ Tp
q = (0.146*2.745*99)/ 0.6368
q = 62.30 Cumecs –or- 2200 Cusecs.
53
B- Dicken‟s fomula:
Q = C* M3/4 where Q= discharge in Cusecs.
C= Constant= 1000
M= C.A= 1.06 Sq miles
Q= 1000*(1.06)3/4 = 1000* 1.04467 = 1044.67 Cusecs –or- say 1045
Cusecs.
Hence adopt 2200 Cusecs MFD for design of weir.

31) The formula for calculating length of F.O.F weir is as follows:

Q= (10*L*H3/2)/3,
Where Q= MFD in cusecs.
L=Length of weir in ft.
H=head of discharge in ft. (We have to assume it)
Width of apron= 2*√F*H +H+3, where F=ht. of bund, H=head of discharge.
Thickness of apron= √F+H
Base width of body wall= (F+H)/√2.5
Top width of body wall= 2 ft. –or- 0.60 m. For small MFD‘s from small
catchment areas and head of discharge between 0.50 m to 0.90 m, we provide
F.O.F weir (Broad Crested weir).
Cross section of F.O.F weir vide fig-2.10 is shown below.

Fig. 2.10 – Cross Section of F.O.F. Weir

The formula for calculating length of High Coefficient (H.C.) weir is as follows:
Q=3.90*L*H3/2 for C.R.S masonry body wall;
Q=4.10*L*H3/2 for C.C body wall.
Where Q= MFD in cusecs.
L=Length of weir in ft.
H=head of discharge in ft. (We have to assume it)

58
32) Typical cross section of H.C. weir is as shown below fig. 2.11:

Fig. 2.11 – Typical Cross Section of H.C. Weir

The following is the figure 2.12 showing H.C. weir when B.C. soils are met with in
foundation as per M.I. guidelines.

59
 Fig. 2.12 – H.C. Weir when B.C. soils are met within the foundation

33) Sample Design of High Coefficient (H. C) weir:

Formula for design of H.C. weir is,

Assuming 0.90 m head of discharge, we calculate length of HC weir.

Q= 3.90*L*H3/2 where, Q= MFD=2200 Cusecs

L=?
H= 0.90 m –or- 2.952 ft.
Q= 3.90*L* (2.952)3/2
2200=3.90*L*5.071

L=2200 / (3.90*5.071) =

L= 111.24 feet –or- 33.91 m -or- say 34 m

Hence provide H.C. weir from ch. (-) 0.20 to ch. 1.50 (such that the foundation of
H.C. weir is below ground level) with ahead of discharge of 0.90 m

After design of weir, we can finalize the standards of the bund.

The standards for sample tank are as follows:

F.T.L ----------------------------------------- +102.800

M.W.L (FTL + 0.90=102.80+0.90) -----------+103.700
T.B.L (M.W.L +Free board) ------------------ +105.200
Top width for MI tank is 3.00 m as per guidelines.
Free board is fixed 1.50 m as per MI guidelines.

Side Slopes --------------------------------- 2:1

We have to provide/place H.C. weir along the bund line on either left flank or right
flank such that the foundation of weir is buried below natural ground level as shown
in the L.S. of Bund figure at page (60).

Top of the foundation level of H.C. weir is taken as apron level, such that the apron
C.C. is below ground level as shown in cross section of weir.

34) L. S., Plan & Cross Section of H.C. Weir are shown below:

Fig. 2.13- L.S. of H.C. Weir; Fig. 2.14- Plan & C.S of H.C. Weir

Fig. 2.17 – Abutment & Returns Section along 'AA'

Now we know the F.T.L and apron level. Height of weir body wall is the difference
between F.T.L and apron level.
For this height of body wall and head of discharge designed above, we have to
choose the corresponding standards of different components of H.C. weir from table
at page 109 in MI guideline booklet.
For sample design of above H.C. weir body wall height 2.80 m and head of
discharge of 0.90 m,
the standards of H.C. weir as per M.I. guideline table at page 109 are as follows:
H= Height of weir body wall =2.80 m
W=Base width of body wall = 3.05 m
T1=Thickness of solid apron = 1.10 m
T2=Thickness of solid apron = 0.85 m
L1=Length of solid apron = 5.50 m
L2=Length of solid apron = 5.00 m
D1=Depth of upstream cut-off wall = 1.80 m
D=Depth of downstream cut-off wall = 2.20 m
L3=Length of Talus = 3.30 m

39) (i) Normal scour depth calculation:

R = 1.35 *(q2 / f)1/3 where, q=62.30/ 34 = 1.832 Cumecs/m

f= Lacey‘s silt factor = 2
R = 1.35 *[(1.832)2 / 2]1/3
= 1.35* (1.678)1/3

65
 = 1.35* 1.188 = 1.603 m < 2.20 m proposed.

(ii) Tail Water Depth (T.W.D) calculations:

Q = 2.63* L* H3/2 where, Q = 2200 Cusecs

L = Length of weir = 34 m –or- 111.52 ft.
H = T.W.D=?
2200= 2.63 * 111.52 * H3/2
H3/2 = [2200/ (2.63*111.52)]
H = (7.50)2/3
H = 3.834 ft. or 1.168 m or say 1.17 m
Tail Water Level (T.W.L) = Apron level + T.W.D
= 100.00+1.17
= 101.170 m

(iii) Design of Abutment, Wings & Return.

The formulas used for design of Abutment, Wings & Returns are as follows:

Design of Abutment:

Height of abutment = H = TBL – apron level

Top width of abutment = 0.60 m
Bottom width of abutment = 0.4 x H +0.60
Length of abutment = same as top width of bund = 3.00 m

Upstream Return:-

Height of U/s return = equal to height of abutment

Top width of return = 0.60 m
Bottom width of return = 0.4 x H
Length of U/s return = 2xH+0.60

Downstream Return:-

Height of downstream return = TWD+0.30

Length of return = 2(TWL-Apron level) +0.30
Top width of return = 0.60 m
Bottom width of return = 0.4xH +0.60
But provide minimum 0.9mt bottom width.
Length of wing wall is equal to width of solid apron.

66
 (iii) Sample design of Abutment, Wings & Returns for one of the M.I. tank:

Design of Abutment:
Height of abutment = H = TBL – apron level
H = 105.20- 100.00
H = 5.20 m
Top width of abutment = 0.60 m
Bottom width of abutment = 0.4 x H = 0.40 * 5.20 +0.60
= 2.68 m -or- say 2.70 m
Length of abutment = same as top width of bund = 3.00 m
Upstream Return:-
Height of U/s return = equal to height of abutment = 5.20 m
Top width of return = 0.60 m
Bottom width of return = 0.4 x H = 0.40 * 5.20 +0.60
= 2.68 m -or- say 2.70 m
Length of U/s return = 2xH+0.60 = 2* 5.20 + 0.60
= 11.00 m
Downstream Return:-
Height of downstream return = TWD+0.30 = 1.17 + 0.30 = 1.47 m.
Top width of return = 0.60 m
Bottom width of return = 0.4xH +0.60 =0.40* 1.50 +0.60 = 1.20 m

Preparation of Sluice Estimate:

The detailed estimate of sluices of M.I. tank can be prepared as follows:

Suppose the sill of the sluice is +97.45, G.L. is +98.50 & TBL is +104.45,

71
Height of bund at sluice point=104.45-98.50=5.95 m. For this height of bund, the
quantities of different items of sluice can be taken from ready reckoner table given
by the Engineer-in- Chief, Minor Irrigation, Hyderabad vide circular memo no. DCE

Ref :[Link] Memo No. DCE (MI)/OT4-T1/84023/86, dt.12.12.1986.

In continuation of this office circular memo cited, the Ready Reckoner Tables
for dimension of structures and quantities of work are enclosed for quick computing
the items of work involved and estimating. These standards are issued for the
purpose of estimation only. The Executive Engineers are requested to ensure the
safety of head wall based on the soils met with in the foundations and other field
conditions.

The following alterations are made to the type design already circulated.
1. Top width of earthen approach embankment (from bund to head wall) is
increased from 1 M to 2M to bring it in line with abutment of head wall and
also for consolidation with power roller up to top level.
2. Grouting and pointing of revetment for approach embankment is deleted as it
is considered not necessary.
3. The length of the barrel (pipe line) is fixed so as, to get the number of pipes
to the nearest half pipe length, as indicated in the enclosed statement.
The revised type design of head sluice is also enclosed for ready reference.

50) LAND ACQUISITION CALCULATIONS

(I) Submergence of land in bed side upto F.T.L. + 102.800

Area of Submergence @FTL as per capacity table = 0.069317261 M.

[Link].
= 0.069317261*247.10
= 17.128 Acres

(II) Land required under seat of bund formation:

Bund formation from Ch (-) 7.50 to Ch (-) 0.20

& from Ch 1.50 to Ch 15.50 = (7.50-0.20)*20 + (15.50-1.50)*20
= 7.30*20 + 14*20
= 146+280
= 426 Mt.

Considering the section @ Ch (-) 0.20, Ch 1.50, Ch 6.25 & Ch 10.00

a) At (-) 0.20, the height = (105.20-101.265) + 0.30 = 4.235 Mt.

Base width = 2*4.235*2+3 = 19.94 Mt.

b) At Ch 1.50, the height = (105.20-99.935) + 0.30 = 5.565 Mt.

82
 Base width = 2*5.565*2+3 = 25.26 Mt.

Fig. 2.24 – Cross section at Ch. 1.50

c) At Ch 6.25, the height = (105.20 - 92.780) + 0.30 = 12.72 Mt.

Base width = 2*12.72*2 + 3 = 53.88 Mt.

Fig. 2.25 – Cross section at Ch. 6.25

d) At Ch 10.00, the height = (105.20 - 99.115) + 0.30 = 6.385 Mt.

83
 Base width = 2* 6.385X2+3 = 28.54 Mt.

Fig. 2.26 – Cross section at Ch. 10.00

Average base width of bund = (0+19.94+25.26+53.88+28.54+0)/6

= 127.62/6
= 21.27 Mt.

Total average area under the seat of bund= 21.27*426

= 9061.02 Sq. [Link] 2.238 Acres

III) (a) L.F. Canal:

Fig. 2.27 – Section of L.F. Canal

Width of canal (Land) = 11.70 Mt.

Length of L.F. Canal = 55*20 = 110 Mt.

Area of Land required for L.F. Canal= 11.70X110 = 128.70 Sq. Mt or 3.18 Acres

84
(b) R.F. Canal:

Width of canal (Land) = 11.40 Mt.

Length of R.F. Canal = 30*20 = 600 Mt.
Area of Land required for L.F. Canal = 11.40*600= 6840 Sq. Mt or 1.69
Acres
Total Land required for Canal = 3.18+1.69 = 4.87 Acres

IV) Land for Surplus course:

Length of H.C. weir is 34 meter. Hence width of surplus course is 34+4=38 mt.
(4 m is for retaining wall on either side of drop.)

Length of surplus course is 72 meter till it joins the stream on d/s side of bund,
as shown in figure below:

Fig. 2.28 – Plan of surplus course at weir

Land required for surplus course= 38*72 = 2736 [Link]. –or- 0.676
Acre.
Total Land Acquisition required:
(i) Submergence = 17.12 Acres
(ii) Under seat of Bund = 2.238 Acres
(iii) Canals = 4.87 Acres
(iv) Surplus course = 0.676 Acres
Total = 24.904 Acres

85
51) DESIGN OF CANAL: Sample design of canal is given below.
Left side canal ayacut=104 acres
Discharge required for 2‖ depth of water in khariff season for 4days in a
week
= 104x4840x2‖x9___ = 2.1847 C/s
4x24x60x60x12
Add 10% losses = 0.2184
Total = 2.4031 C/s
Proposed canal section……2‘-0‖x1‘-0

Fig. 2.29 – Cross Section of Canal

Bottom width = 2‘-0‖

F.S.D = 1‘-0‖
Free Board = 1‘-6‖
Side slopes 1:1
Area = A = ((2+4)/2) x 1.0 = 3.00 Sq. ft
Wetted Perimeter =P= 2+2*1*1.414=4.828
R=A/p = 3.00/4.828 = 0.62137
R2/3 = (0.62137) 2/3 = 0.7282
S1/2 = (1/2500) 1/2 = 0.02
V= Velocity = 1.486*0.7282 * 0.02 = 0.8656 feet/sec
0.025
Discharge = A * V = 3.00*0.8656=2.597 cusecs
Required discharge = 2.403 C/s
Hence canal section assumed is O.K.

52) Sample calculations of earth work excavation and earth work
embankment of canal (canal in full cutting, canal in partial cutting &
partial banking and canal in full banking above ground level) are given
below for guidance:

Fig. 2.30 – Cross section at Ch. 0.00

Avg. GL + 99.800
CBL = +98.976
EWE in all soil = [(2.248+1.248)/ 2]* 0.500 = 0.874 [Link].
EWE in HDR = [(1.248+0.60)/2]* 0.324 = 0.300 [Link].

 Fig. 2.34 – Cross section at Ch. 4.00

Avg. GL =+99.605

Stripping under bank = 2* 1.689*0.15 = 0.507 [Link].
EWE in all soil = [(1.874+0.60)/ 2]* 0.637 = 0.788 [Link].
EW embankment=2*[(0.90+1.689)/2]*0.269= 0.696 [Link].

EW embankment= 2*[(0.90+3.15)/2]* 0.75+ [(6.90+7.668)/2]*0.192=
4.435 [Link].

Now we can prepare the earth work statement of Left and Right canal. This
will give earth work excavation for stripping, EW for canal excavation in
ordinary soils, excavation in HDR if any and earth work formation of canal
embankment.

53) DESIGN OF CD & CM STRUCTURES OF CANAL

Design of Rectangular Notch at Drop of canal:

Q = Discharge of canal = 3.6047 Cusecs or 0.10207 Cumecs

H = FSD of canal = 1 feet or 0.30 m.
Q = ⅔ * Cd √2g *(L1 – 0.10*n*H)* H2/3 Where, Cd= Coefficient of
discharge= 0.63
g= Acceleration due to
gravity=9.81m/sec
L1= Length of Notch of canal in m.
n= no. of ends of Notch for end
contraction=2
= FSD / head of discharge of canal=1‘ or
0.30 m.
0.10207=⅔* 0.63*√2*9.81*(L1 – 0.10*2*0.30)*(0.30)3/2
(L1 – 0.060)= (0.10207*3) / (2*0.63*√2*9.81*(0.30)3/2
L1 – 0.060= 0.30621/ (1.26*4.429*0.1643)
L1 – 0.060= 0.3339
L1 = 0.3339+0.060= 0.3939 m. or say 0.40 m.

Design of Drop / Fall in a canal

The formulas used for design of different components of a drop are as

follows:

(1) Top width of drop wall = √d1 + H , where d1 = height of drop in feet
H = FSD of canal in feet
(2) Bottom width of drop wall = (H+ d1)/ √ℓ ,
where d1 = height of drop in m.
H = FSD of canal in m.
ℓ = unit wt. of masonry=2.25

(3) Length of solid apron = 2* d1 + 2* √ d1*H

(4) Thickness of apron = ½ (√d1 + H )
(5) Length of d/s revetment = 4* (d1 + H)
(6) Length of u/s revetment = 3* d1
(7) Length of drop wall = Top width of canal section +1m + 1m

91
54) Sample design of 1.00 meter drop/fall is given below

Drop= d1 = 1.00 meter –or- 3.28 ft. ; FSD= H =0.30 m. –or- 1 ft.
1) Top width of drop = √d1 + H,
where d1 = 3.28 ft.
H = 1 ft.
= √3.28+ 1 = 2.06 ft. –or- 0.628 m. say 0.65 m.
2) Bottom width of drop wall = (H+ d1)/ √ℓ,
where, d1 = 3.28 ft.
H = 1 ft.
ℓ = unit wt. of masonry=2.25
= (0.30+1) / √2.25 =0.866 m. say 0.90 m.
3) Length of solid apron = 2* d1 + 2* √ d1*H
= 2* 1.00 + 2* √1*0.30
= 2+1.09
= 3.09 m. say 3.10 m.
4) Thickness of apron = ½ *(√d1 + H)
= ½ * (√1 +0.30) =0.57 m –or- say 0.60 m.
5) Length of d/s revetment = 4* (d1 + H) = 4* (1.00+0.30) = 5.20 m.
6) Length of u/s revetment = 3* d1 = 3* 1.00 = 3.00 m.
7) Length of drop wall = Top width of canal section +1m + 1m
= 1+3.90+1
= 5.90 m.

92
Sample drawing of the 0.90 m. drop of canal vide fig. 2.37 is shown below:

Fig. 2.37 – Drop of Canal (0.90 m)

93
55) Sample deign of RCC Hume pipe culvert for canal crossing the
Cart Track at ch. Of canal
Discharge of canal = Q= 2.31 Cusecs
Velocity of water in canal = V = 0.854 ft/ sec.

Velocity of water in RCC pipe= 1.50* 0.854 =1.281 ft/ sec

Check for the diameter of RCC pipe (to be provided)

Q= A* V

9.588 =[ (╥/4)*(d)2] * 1.281

9.589

d2 = [2.31*4] / [3.141* 1.281

d2 = 2.2964

d = √2.2964 = 1.515 ft. –or- 0.461 m.

Hence provide minimum 600 mm Ø RCC Hume pipe for culvert, so that
it is not silted up. More over we have to provide higher diameter pipe
than the diameter obtained above to make flow as open channel flow.

Length of H.P. culvert proposed for Cart Track is 7.50 m. Length of each
pipe=2.50mt

No. of pipes required= 7.50/2.50 = 3 no‘s

Hence provide 3 no‘s RCC Hume pipes of 600 mm diameter from ch.
To ch. for canal crossing Cart Track.

94
56) A sample drawing of the RCC Hume pipe culvert is shown
below vide fig. 2.38:

Fig. 2.38 – RCC Hume Pipe Culvert

95
57) Sample design of RCC Hume pipe Super-Passage for canal
crossing the surplus course:

Discharge of the canal = Q= 3.60478 Cusecs

Velocity of water in canal = 0.92497 ft/sec.

Velocity of water in RCC pipe= 1.50* 0.92497 =1.3874 ft/ sec

Q= A* V

3.60478 = [(╥/4)*(d)2] * 1.3874

d2 = [3.60478*4] / [3.141* 1.3874

d2 = 3.309

d = √3.309 = 1.819 ft. –or- 0.555 m

Hence provide 800 mm Ø [Link] Hume pipe for super-passage, so that it is not
silted up. Moreover we have to provide higher diameter pipe than the diameter
obtained above to make flow as open channel flow.

96
58) Sample drawing of a RCC Hume pipe super-passage proposed
is given below vide fig. 2.39:

Fig. 2.39 – Plan, L.S. & C.S of RCC Hume pipe Super-passage

97
59) Design of Rectangular R.C.C Trough aqueduct for canal crossing
motorable track at ch.
Design discharge of canal = Q = 2.403 Cusecs
Velocity of water in canal = V = 0.8656 ft / sec
Design of rectangular section;
Q=A*V
A = Q / V = 2.403 / 0.8656 = 2.776 Sq ft.
We know FSD of canal = 1 ft., length of rectangular section will be,
A = L * Depth
2.776 = L * 1
L = 2.776/1 = 2.776 ft.
Hence provide 3 ft width of rectangular section.
Design of R.C.C. Trough slab:-
Clear span = 4.00 m.
Maximum depth of water = 0.30 m.
Unit weight of water = 1000 Kg/cum
Thickness of wearing coat = 2.50 cm.
Unit Weight of RCC slab = 2403 Kg/cum
Considering 1 meter length of slab,
Weight of water = 1000*0.30 = 300 Kg/[Link].
Assuming 12.50 cm slab thickness plus 2.50 wearing coat = 12.50+2.50
=15.00cm.
Weight of RCC slab = (15 * 2403)/100 = 360.45 Kg/[Link].
Weight of wearing coat = (2.50*2403)/100 = 60.07 Kg/[Link].
Total weight = 300+360.45+60.07 = 720.47 Kg/sq m
Hence adopt 750 Kg/ [Link] load for design for safer side.
Effective span = clear span + ½ of effective depth of slab
= 4.00 + ½ *(12.50/100)
= 4.062 m.
i) Maximum +ve B.M at mid span=W l2 / 12 = 750*(4.062)2 / 12
=1031.24 Kg-m.
2
ii) Maximum -ve B.M at support =W l / 16 = 750*(4.062)2 / 16
= 773.43 Kg-m.
iii) Effective depth = d= √(1031.24*100)/(11.50*100)
d= 9.469 cm.
Assuming 12mm Ø bars are used,
Overall depth = D= d + 0.60 + 2.50
= 9.469 + 0.60 + 2.50
= 12.569 cm < 15 cm
Hence O.K.

98
Main reinforcement:
Area of steel required at mid span;
Ast = (1031.24*100)/ 843.70*0.823*9.469)
Ast = 15.680 sq Cm
Providing 12 mm Ø Tor rods,
No. of rods = 15.68/ (╥/4*(1.20)2) = 13.87 rods say 14 number rods.
Spacing of 12 mm Ø rods= (8‘/3.28)/14 = 17 cm c/c
Area of steel required at support;
Asc = (773.43*100) / (843.70*0.82*9.469) = 11.76 [Link].
Providing 12mm Ø Tor rods;
No. of rods =11.76 / (╥/4*(1.20)2) = 10.39 say 11 numbers
Spacing = (8‘/3.28)/11 = 0.221 m c/c say 22 cm c/c
Distribution steel required = 20% of main reinforcement
= 15.68*20/100 = 3.136 [Link].
Providing 8 mm Ø tor steel rods.
No. of bars per meter= 3.136 / (╥/4*(0.80)2) = 6.238 say 7 rods/meter.

Spacing = 1000/ 7 = 142.85 mm or say 14 cm c/c.

Total no. of rods required= 475/14 = 71.42-or- say 72
Design of CRS masonry abutment for RCC Trough aqueduct:
Existing G.L. in local stream at aqueduct = +87.275
Canal bed level = +89.430
Height of net Vent way available for local traffic= 89.430 – 87.275
= 2.155 m
But minimum required of passage for loaded bullock carts and Tractors is assumed
as 3.00 m.
Proposed G.L. in local stream & passage = 89.430 – 3.00 =86.43 m
Height of CC abutment at bank side of the local stream= H =3.00+0.30=3.30
Assuming top width of abutment as 0.75 m
Bottom width of abutment = 0.40 * H = 0.40*3.30 = 1.32 m or say 1.40 m
Proposed G.L. at stream = +86.43 m
Top of canal bank = 89.43 + 0.75 = 90.18 m
Length of Returns = (Canal bank TBL – 86.43)* 1.50 +0.60
= (90.180 – 86.43) * 1.50 + 0.60
= 5.631 +0.60
= 6.225 m or say 6.25 m
Length of Abutment = 0.90/2 +2*0.75*1.50+0.60+0.90/2
= 3.75 m
Top width of Return= top width of abutment = 0.75 m
Bottom width of Returns = 1.40 m

63) Sample design of an Inlet-weir for canal crossing local
Nala/small stream:
An Inlet weir of CC ([Link]) proportion is proposed from ch. to ch. as the
G.L is just 0.30m below the proposed Canal Bed Level (CBL). Height of Inlet weir
will be d1=FSD+0.10m=0.35+0.10= 0.45m. Inlet weir is proposed on left side of
canal bank so that the water flowing from right side will join the canal water up to
0.45m depth, then after that level, excess water will on left side of inlet weir, for
which solid apron and loose apron are designed as follows:

C.B.L = +90.590; assuming head of discharge = H = 0.30m,

1. Top width of inlet weir= 0.60m

2. Top level of inlet weir= C.B.L + d1 = 90.590+0.45 = 91.04
3. Level of solid apron= Top level of inlet weir – 0.45
= 91.04 – 0.45 = 90.29
4. Height of inlet weir= Top level of inlet weir – lowest G.L - 0.30
d2= 91.04 – 90.29 -0.30 = 0.45 m
5. Bottom width of inlet weir= 0.40* 0.45 + 0.60 = 0.78m
but provide minimum 0.90m
6. Length of solid apron= 2* 0.45 +2*√0.45*0.30 = 1.635 or say 1.70m
7. Thickness of solid apron = ½ * √(d2 + H) =½ * √(0.45 + 0.30) =0.433
but provide 0.50m
8. Length of loose apron = 4* d2 = 4* 0.45 = 1.80m but provide minimum 2 m.

After design and drawing of the Cross Masonry (CM) & Cross Drainage (CD)
structures like Drop, RCC Hume Pipe Culvert, R.C.C Deck Slab Culvert, super

103
passage, R.C.C Trough aqueduct, measuring devises etc., along left and right canal,
we can prepare the detailed estimates accordingly.
64) Preparation of Data: Readymade revised standard data published by the
State I&CAD Department (i.e., Superintending Engineer, Irrigation Circle, Ranga
Reddy district, Red Hills, Hyderabad) every year is available which can be used for
preparation of abstract estimates.

 This data is prepared with basic rates of material without any lead & lift etc.,
 Lead statement should be prepared, through which the final rate of material with
lead, lift, seigniorage charges etc., can be arrived.
 This final rate can be replaced in the standard data to get the finished item rate
per cum or sq m or R m depending upon the type of item.

The lead statement is given below:

After arriving at total cost of material, the standard data of each item can be
use and final finished item rate can be calculated. This finished item rate is to be
used to prepare the abstract cost of earthen bund, weir, surplus course, canals, C.D
& C.M structures etc.,

77) Different types of surplus arrangements that can be provided
for Minor Irrigation tanks are as follows:
1) Free over fall weir:- This is located where the length of discharge is
restricted, foundations are good and fall of water is adequate.
2) Submerged weir:- This is suitable where sufficient length of discharge is
available, the country is gently sloping and soils are not hard.
3) Broad crested weir:- This is provided where head of discharge is
between 0.50 m to 0.90m.
4) High Coefficient weir:- This is provided where head of discharge is more
than 0.90 m.
5) Flush escape or Masonry Sill (MS) bye wash:- This is provided where
the length available is great and where hard soils (Strata) is available at
or above F.T.L.
I) The formula for calculating length of M.S. bye wash weir is as follows:
Q= 2.67* L* H3/2 where, Q= MFD in Cusecs
L= length in feet
H= head of discharge in feet
II) The formula for calculating length of F.O.F weir is as follows:
Q= 3.33*L*H3/2, Where Q= MFD in Cusecs.
L=Length of weir in ft.
H=head of discharge in ft. (We have to
assume it)
Width of apron= 2*√F*H +H+3, where F=ht. of bund, H=head of
discharge.
Thickness of apron= √F+H
Base width of body wall= (F+H)/√2.5
Top width of body wall= 2 ft. –or- 0.60 mt. For small MFD‘s from
small catchment areas and head of discharge between 0.50 m to 0.90
m we provide F.O.F weir (Broad Crested weir).
III) The formula for calculating length of High Coefficient (H.C.) weir is as
follows:
Q=3.90*L*H3/2 for CRS masonry body wall;
Q=4.10*L*H3/2 for CC body wall.
Where Q= MFD in Cusecs.
L=Length of weir in ft.
H=head of discharge in ft. (We have to
assume it)
IV) Submerged weir ( suitable in B.C soils):
Q= 3.11 * L* H3/2 Where Q= MFD in Cusecs.
L=Length of weir in ft.
H=head of discharge in ft. (We have to assume it)

124
78) Emperical formula for calculating Maximum Flood Discharge
from a catchment basin there are several formulas. The
formulas generally used are as follows:

1) Rational Method as given in MI guidelines booklet.

2) Dicken‟s formula:

Q= C M3/4 where, Q= Maximum flood discharge in Cusecs

M= Catchment Area in Sq. miles
C= Constant varying from 850 to 1200
i.e., C=1200 for M≤ 5 sq. miles
C= 1000 for M= 5 to 80 sq. miles
C= 850 for M= 80 sq. miles and above

3) Ryve‟s formula:

Q= C M2/3 where, Q= Maximum flood discharge in Cusecs

M=Combined catchment area in sq. miles
C= 600 to 800

4) Ali Nawaz Jung Bahadur formula:

Q=C*M*(0.993 – 1/14 log(M)) where M= Catchment area in sq. miles

C= varies from 48 to 60

5) Fanning‟s formula:

Q= CM5/6 where, M= Catchment area in Sq. miles

C= Constant= 2.54

125
79) Design of an Anicut and Feeder Channel

For design of an anicut, the first essential thing is to construct a stage-

discharge curve, covering the full range of discharge including the M.F.D. For
arriving at mean slope, at least three cross sections in a well defined stream and
more in a non-uniform stream should be taken, covering both u/s and d/s
sufficiently. The value of co-efficient of rugosity (n) may adopted are as follows:

a) Rivers and canals in earth below the average in fair order= 0.030
b) Rivers and canals in earth obstructed by detritus and in bad order and
regime=0.035
c) Rivers and canals in earth obstructed by detritus and in rock cutting =
0.035
d) Torrets encumbered with detritus =0.05

Design of Feeder Channel:

Discharge in Cusecs= Capacity of anicut in Mcft* 106

No. of flood days*24*60*60

Number of flood days are calculated using Table-2.25 based on daily rainfall:
Table – 2.25 – No. of Flood days
Daily Rainfall in inches Number of flood days
½‖ to ¾‖ 1‖ flood day
¾‖ to 1‖ ½‖ flood day

81) BRIEF GUIDELINES FOR THE CONTINUATION OF SCHEME ON
REPAIR, RENOVATION & RESTORATION (RRR) OF WATER
BODIES IN XIIth PLAN EFFECTIVE FROM OCTOBER,2013
(These will change from time to time)

I. INTRODUCTION:

1. In India minor tanks/ponds and lakes have traditionally played an

important role in conserving water for various needs of the communities.
As per Minor Irrigation Census 200-2001, there are 5.56 Lakh tanks and
storages in the country as minor irrigation sources creating 6.27 million
ha. of irrigation potential. Out of which 4.71 lakh tanks are in use, and the
remaining 0.85 lakh tanks are not in use for one or the other reasons, as
a result of which one million ha of irrigation potential has been lost.
2. However, many of these water bodies have gone into disuse because of
the development of ground water irrigation systems, inadequate
maintenance, encroachments, illegal diversion of land for construction
purpose, etc. A pilot scheme for ―Repair, Renovation and Restoration
(RRR) of Water Bodies directly linked to Agriculture‖ was launched in
January 2005 for implementation during the remaining period of Xth Plan
with an outlay of Rs. 300 crores. The scheme was sanctioned in respect of
1098 water bodies in 26 districts of 15 States with a target to create 0.78
lakh ha of additional irrigation potential.
3. Keeping in view the success of the pilot scheme for RRR of water bodies
and need for a comprehensive program to upscale the gains from water
bodies, the Ministry of Water Resources had launched a State Sector
Scheme for Repair, Renovation & Restoration (RRR) of water bodies with
two components (i) one with external assistance and (ii) another with
domestic support for implementation during XIth Plan.
4. Under the scheme of RRR of water bodies with external assistance, 10887
water bodies in four States namely Odisha, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh
and Tamil Nadu, at an estimated cost of Rs. 3700 crore with CCA of 8.25
lakh ha was proposed to be covered.
5. To increase the participation of all the States it was felt to frame a new
scheme for Repair, Renovation and Restoration (RRR) of Water Bodies
during the XII Plan as a State Sector Scheme with domestic budgetary
support.
II. BASIC FEATURES OF THE SCHEME:

1. Under the scheme, about 10,000 water bodies having a Culturable

Command Area (CCA) of 6.235 lakh hectare at a cost of Rs. 10,000 crore
would be covered. Out of 10,000 water bodies, 9,000 water bodies will be
in rural areas and balance 1,000 water bodies will be in urban areas. Out
of Rs. 10,000 crore, central share is Rs. 6235 crore which includes Rs. 250
crore for spill over works in respect of water bodies taken up during XI

130
 Plan. The remaining amount of Rs. 3765 crore is to be arranged by State
Governments themselves. The States would also be encouraged to seek
external assistance for funding of RRR of Water Bodies.
2. Main objectives of the scheme:
(i) Comprehensive improvement and restoration water bodies thereby
increasing tank storage capacity.
(ii) Ground Water Recharge.
(iii) Increased availability of drinking water.
(iv) Improvement in agriculture/horticulture productivity.
(v) Improvement of catchment areas of tank commands.
(vi) Environmental benefits through improved water use efficiency; by
promotion of conjunctive use of surface and ground water.
(vii) Community participation and self-supporting system for sustainable
management for each water body.
(viii) Capacity Building of communities, in better water management.
(ix) Development of tourism, cultural activities, etc.

III. FUNDING PATTERN AND THE ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA FOR

FUNDING:

(i) The central assistance will be in the form of grant which will be 90%
of project cost in case of Special Category States (North-Eastern
States including Sikkim, Himachal Pradesh, Jammu & Kashmir,
Uttarakhand and undivided Koraput, Bolangir and Kalahandi (KBK
districts of Orissa) as well as projects lying in desert development
programme(DDP),drought prone area/tribal area/Naxal affected
area and Central assistance of 25% of project cost in case of Non-
Special Category States/areas. The balance cost of the project as
State share (10% in case of Special Category States/areas and 75%
in case of Non-Special Category States/ areas) is to be arranged by
the State Governments themselves.
(ii) The works of RRR of water bodies spilling over from XIth Plan would
be funded as per XIth Plan guidelines.
(iii) The proposals which satisfy the following criteria should be eligible
for funding:

a) The water bodies are approved by the State Advisory Technical

Committee (TAC) constituted by the State which includes representative
from Central Water Commission (CWC) and Central Ground Water Board
as Member.
b) The water bodies lying in Desert Development Programme (DDP),
drought prone area/tribal area/Naxal affected area to be taken up will be
decided in consultation with Planning Commission.
c) The proposals not receiving any other form of financial assistance.
d) The works shall be completed within 2 financial years excluding the year
of inclusion of water bodies under RRR.
131
 e) Proposals with B.C. Ratio of 1:1 for special category states/areas and
more than 1 for non-special category states.
f) Rural water bodies having minimum water spread area of 5 hectare.
g) Urban water bodies having water spread area from 2.0 hectare to 10
hectare.
h) The scheme will emphasize development of catchment area, de-siltation
and command area development in respect of water bodies. The RRR
scheme in rural areas is proposed to be implemented in convergence
with the Integrated Watershed Management Programme so that the
catchment areas of the water body selected are located either in treated
micro/mini watershed or those selected for treatment during the next
year or two. The proposals of only those water bodies in which
catchment area treatment works have started under Integrated
Watershed Management Programme (IWMP) would be included in the
scheme of RRR of water bodies. In case, the scheme of IWMP is being
considered for implementation in the state based on IWMP programme,
the water bodies of such area will also be included in the scheme
received up to March, 2013. A certificate from State Government will be
required for speedy implementation of IWMP in those areas.
i) State Government is to take necessary steps for declaring the water
body boundary through a Government order and to ensure removal of
encroachments in the water body spread area/water body boundary
before submitting the proposal for release of 2nd installment of grant for
completion of work on the water body under RRR.

IV. PLANNING OF THE PROJECTS

The States may take up planning and implementation of projects under
the scheme generally in the manner outlined below:

IV.1 Criteria for identification and Selection of water bodies:

(i) A project may be prepared with an individual water body with sub-basin
approach. All public and community owned water bodies may be covered
under the project but Private owned water bodies are not covered. All
water bodies included in the project will be given a Unique Code Number.
States will accordingly undertake census of these water bodies and get
complete list of water bodies along with Unique Code in the first stage.
(ii) The States may take up the Repair, Renovation and Restoration of water
bodies having minimum water spread area of 5 hectare in rural areas
and having water spread area from 2 hectare to 10 hectare in urban
areas.
(iii) The number of rural and urban water bodies could be 9000 and 1000 in
the Overall scheme.
IV.2 Preparation of Detailed Project Reports (DPR):
The DPR of a project has to include information on the following aspects:
i. Details of present status of the water bodies (in use or partially used or
not in use) with reasons for deterioration in condition and also its
132
 categorization in terms of location in (i) special category states, hilly
states i.e. Jammu & Kashmir, Uttarakhand and Himachal Pradesh and
undivided Koraput, Bolangir and Kalahandi (KBK) districts of Odisha (ii)
desert, drought prone, tribal and Naxal affected areas in non- special
category states (iii) other areas not covered under category (i) and (ii).
ii. Rainfall during the last ten years, ground water level, land use pattern,
soil characteristics, climate conditions, availability of water in the
catchment area for channelization into water body, water quality
situation in the water body and adjoining areas. No polluted effluent
without treatment should fall in the water body.
iii. Details of original CCA, present CCA and CCA planned in the DPR,
original storage capacity/present storage capacity and storage capacity
planned in the DPR, water quality situation in the water body and of
ground water in adjoining areas with likely impact of the project on water
quality of the water body and of the ground water.
iv. Scope of work viz De-silting in terms of quantum of silt to be removed,
repair of conveyance system, strengthening of bund(s), repair of weirs
and sluices, catchment treatment, command area development, soil
erosion prevention works, quality control measures. Maps of catchment
and command areas are to be enclosed in the DPR.
v. The scheme envisages capacity building of implementing agencies such
as Ministry of Water Resources (MoWR) and its attached and subordinate
offices, State Governments, District Implementing agencies, Water
Users‘ Associations (WUAs) and Panchayats. Accordingly, a capacity
building programme aimed at sensitization of stakeholders, identification
and selection of water bodies, preparation of Detailed Project Reports
(DPRs), monitoring and evaluation is to be prepared and included in the
DPRs.
vi. The proposals of only those water bodies in which catchment area
treatment works have started under Integrated Watershed Management
Programme (IWMP) would be included in the scheme of RRR of water
bodies. In case, the scheme of IWMP is being considered for
implementation in the state based on IWMP programme, the water
bodies of such area will also be included in the scheme received upto
March, 2013. A certificate from State Government will be required for
speedily implementation of IWMP in those areas.
vii. Targeted benefits under the project will include creation of additional
irrigation potential, Increase in agriculture / horticulture / pisciculture
production and productivity, increase in recharge of ground water,
improvement in water use efficiency, increase in availability of drinking
water, impact on water quality, removal of weed growth, promotion of
tourism and culture.
viii. Detailed calculation for working out the Benefit Cost ratio (BC ratio) for
each water body.

133
 ix. Implementation schedule & corresponding requirement of funds; details
of arrangement for monitoring & evaluation and arrangement for use and
maintenance of the restored water bodies.
x. The checklist at Annexure I should be the part of DPR.

V. Implementation of the Scheme

The Institutional structure proposed is:

(i) Water Users‟ Association (WUA) at the Gram Panchayat Level:

At the water body level, the Detailed Project Reports (DPRs) would be
prepared and works would be implemented by Water Users‘ Association (WUA) /
Local Panchayat / A government agency identified by the District Level
Implementing Agency (DLIA). The dispute related to implementation of water
body could be referred to DLIA for resolution. The implementation plan of the
project will be placed before the Gram Sabha and its Cooperation will be solicited
by timely completion of the project. The Activity Mapping in relation to the role
of Panchayat in the implementation of the scheme is at Annexure II. The WUA
would also earn revenues by charging for its services from its members and
build up a corpus for maintaining and managing the water bodies over time. The
Non-Government Organizations (NGOs) may also play a role in implementation,
planning and execution of the scheme subject to State Government‘s decision.

(ii) Arrangements at District Level

The proposals identified / received by DLIA would be scrutinized / included

in the District Plan and forwarded to State Level Nodal Agency (SLNA) for putting
up to State Technical Advisory Committee (TAC).
(iii) Arrangements at State Level
A State Level Nodal Agency (SLNA) will be identified by the State
Government which will be responsible to plan various activities envisaged under
the scheme and monitor their implementation. A Technical Advisory Committee
(TAC) will be constituted by the State to techno-economically appraise and
approve the DPR. TAC shall also include representative from Central Water
Commission (CWC) and Central Ground Water Board (CGWB). After approval of
the DPR by the State TAC, the State will submit the DPR to the concerned
Regional / Field Office of CWC. The concurrent evaluation at the time of
implementation would be got done by State Governments themselves.
(iv) Arrangements at Central Level

The MoWR will coordinate the programme at the central level through
Central Water Commission. The inclusion of the Water Bodies for assistance
under the Scheme would be approved by the Empowered Committee of MoWR
under the Chairmanship of Secretary/Special Secretary/Additional Secretary
(WR). Constitution of the Committee is at Annex.-III. A flow chart indicating

134
the implementation arrangement is at Annex.-IV. The role of the CWC / MoWR
will be to:

i. Facilitate awareness creation about the scheme among stakeholders.

ii. Monitor the progress under the scheme through periodic reports from
the states and field visits.
iii. Provide general guidance to states on all matters relating to the
implementation of the scheme.
iv. Consider approval of projects received from the states for assistance
under the scheme.
v. get the post implementation evaluation and impact assessment of
the projects done.
vi. Provide technical assistance to states through field offices of CGWB
and CWC.
vii. Provide check lists for preparation of DPR and submission of
proposals for release of central assistance.

VI. PROCEDURE FOR SUBMISSION OF PROPOSALS

(i) At the water body level, the DPRs of the water bodies are to be prepared
by WUA / Local Panchayat / a Government agency identified by DLIA.
The Detailed Project Reports (DPRs) will then be forwarded to District
Level Implementation Agency (DLIA) for onward transmission to the
State Level Nodal Agency (SLNA).
(ii) The proposals received by DLIA would be scrutinized, included in
the District Plan and forwarded to State Level Nodal Agency (SLNA) for
putting up to State TAC.
(iii) After approval of the DPR by state TAC, the States will submit DPRs to
the field office of Central Water Commission, which in turn will take
further necessary action for release of funds under the scheme.

Yield Calculation
1. Location of the scheme: ………………………………………..
2. Catchment Area Details:
Free catchment Area : 2.84 Sq Miles
Combined Catchment Area : 0 Sq Miles
Total Catchment Area : 2.84 Sq Miles
3. Rain Gauge Station data:
Influencing R.G.S : PINAPAKA
As per 40 years record from 1975 to 2014
Average Monsoon Rainfall : 1079.62 mm or 42.505‖
Rainfall @ 75 % Dependability: 934.40 mm or 36.787‖
4. Yield Particulars:
The yield per Sq miles for the C.A classified as ½Good + ½Average
for the rainfall @ 75% dependability as per Strange‘s Table :
Considered for yield calculation (Free C.A +½ of Combined C.A) = 2.84 Sq
miles
@ 75% dependable rainfall = 36.79‖

Yield per Sq miles for Good C.A = 28.948 M cft

Yield per Sq miles for Average C.A = 21.711 M cft
Yield per Sq miles (Considering ½Good + ½Average) = 25.33 M cft.
Total yield @ 75% dependable Rainfall= 25.33* 2.84= 71.90 M cft.
Yield utilizable at 90% of total yield=71.90*90/100 = 64.743 M cft.

147
85. b)Sample M.F.D calculations are shown below:
Calculation of Maximum Flood Discharge (M.F.D)
Catchment area of the scheme= 2.84 Sq miles or 7.356 Sq km.
1. Maximum Flood Discharge as per Dicken‟s formula:
Discharge = Q = CM3/4 where, C= Constant ranging from 900 to 1200
Generally we adopt 1100 value for small catchments
¾
Q= 1000*(2.84) = 1100*2.1877 = 2406.47 Cusecs or 68.145 Cumecs.
Hydrological soil group is red soil.
2. M.F.D calculation as Rational Method:
Step-I
Length of stream (L) = 4300
Width of catchment area (W) = 2000
L / W = 4300/2000 = 2.150 2.15:1 < 4:1
Step-II
Time to reach peak (Tp) = 0.48* (A)0.28 = 0.48* (7.356) 0.28 = 0.839 hr.
Step-III
Table – 3.5 – Table of run-off curve number for hydrological soil group.
Land use pattern % C.A. Curve % C.A* Curve number
number
Cultivated crop 60 75 4500
Cultivated Paddy 10 95 950
Forest/ Garden 10 50 500
Waste Land 20 80 1600
Total 100 7550
Weighted Curve Number= 7550/ 100 = 75.50, Adopt 75 curve number.
Step-IV
Value of ―P‖ i.e., maximum rainfall in a day = 180 mm
The value of Q read from Graph for Red soil for P=180 mm & Curve
number 75 is 100.
Step-V
M.F.D is calculated using equation, q= 0.146*A*Q / Tp
= (0.146*7.356* 100)/0.839
= 128.00 Cumecs
Adopt higher M.F.D of 128.00 Cumecs for design of weir.
Now check the adequacy of the existing weir using M.F.D calculated
above.

148
86) Checking the adequacy of existing surplus weir

1. Taking existing head of flow

Head of flow over weir = 0.90 m
Length of weir = 38.00 m
We know Q= 128.00 Cumecs
Discharge = Q = Cd* L* H3/2 where, Cd= 2.1
L = Q / (Cd* H3/2)
L = 128.00/ (2.10* 0.903/2)
L = 71.37 m.

2. Taking the existing length of weir

Head of flow =?
Length of weir = 38 m
Cd= 2.1
Q = 128.00 Cumecs
H3/2 = 128.00/ (2.10*38)
H = 1.60 m
Existing length of weir = 38.00 m
Length of weir required = 71.37 m.

149
87) Fixing of dead storage level of M.I. tank:
Sample calculations:
Catchment Area : 1.10 Sq miles.
Lowest reservoir contour : 138.00 M.
Contour interval : 0.50 M.
Design life of the project in year : 50 years
(I) As per Inglis Formulae:
For silt accommodation: S = C* N * A3/4
23
Where, S = Total silt accumulation in acre-ft.
C = 1.70 a constant
N = Life of the project in years.
A = Catchment area in sq. miles.
Total silt accumulation S = 1.70*50*(1.10)3/4/23= 3.96 acre-ft. in
design life
= 0.172 M Cft.

(II) As per Khosla Formulae:

For silt accommodation: S= C*N*A
23
Where, S = Total silt accumulation in acre-ft.
C = 0.75 a constant.
N = Life of the project in years.
A = Catchment area in sq. miles.
Total silt accumulation S = 0.75*50*1.10/23= 1.78 acre-ft. in
design life
= 0.078 M Cft.

(III) As per Dicken‟s Formulae:

Quantity of silt : 0.075 acre-ft. / year

Total silt accumulation S = 0.075* 50 = 3.75 acres-ft. in design life.
= 0.179 M cft.

89) The works proposed under RRR of water bodies under XII th
plan and “Mission Kakatiya” are as follows:
a) De-silting of fore shore area (tank bed side) of Minor Irrigation tank.
b) Improvement to earthen bund to bring it to the M.I. standards.
c) Repairs to damaged Weir, Apron, Abutments, Wing wall and Returns as
per requirement.
d) Repairs to sluices of tank as per requirement.
e) Restoration of Feeder Channel to the tank
f) Improvements / repairs to canals and providing C.C. lining / Guide walls in
vulnerable reaches as per requirement. Repairs to CD & CM structures.

a) De-siltation
De-siltation is an important work to restore/increase the original capacity
of irrigation tank. This work is for removing accumulated silt in tank bed,
clearing foreshore area encroachments. To decide upon the quantum of
silt that can be removed from tank bed, the following procedure can be
adopted:
a. Preliminary investigation including collection of statistics regarding
tank bed level and other aspects are done.
b. Net levels at every 15m interval are to be taken in tank bed/foreshore
area to decide the quantum of silt that can be removed.
c. Trial pits up to impermeable layer of the tank bed may be taken at
required intervals to measure quantity of de-siltation.
d. The silt removed is to be got tested for its suitability to use in
agriculture farms to improve fertility.

Table – 3.7 - Sample calculation of silt quantity in bed of tank is shown below:

b) Improvement/Rehabilitation of Earth bund/Dam
Detailed survey for existing earthen bund:

(1) Chain & compass survey: -

Chain & compass survey should be conducted. This is required to prepare survey
plan of M.I. tank. Chain survey must be conducted for the entire length of
existing earthen bund from left to right of M.I. tank duly fixing chainage for
every 20 to 25 m. Whole circle bearing for the entire length of earthen bund
should be taken. The survey plan of minor irrigation tank with reference to North
direction can now be drawn.

(2) Conducting Longitudinal Section (L.S) & Cross Section (C.S)

survey:-

Double Check Bench Mark(DCBM) survey should be conducted to bring the

G.T.S benchmark to site. If G.T.S benchmark is not available then a Temporary
Bench Mark (TBM) must be fixed on a nearby rock or permanent structure as
value +100.00. With this bench mark value take levels at each and every
chainage of 20 to 25mt interval on top of bund along the length of bund. This is
used for drawing L. S. of bund, which shows the existing bund profile along bund
line. Cross-section levels also should be taken at every chainage of bund to draw
the existing cross section profile of bund. If the bund profile is not to M.I.
standards and not upto T.B.L., then required profile of bund section is drawn
over the existing bund section profile so that, earth work excavation and
embankment quantities can be worked-out. Figure. 3.1 show designed bund
profile over the existing section as shown below:

Fig. 3.1 – Profile of bund section over the existing bund section

154
(3) Capacity Survey:-

There are various methods for conducting capacity survey of tank. Generally the
following types of survey are conducted:
(a) Contour survey (Stadia or Tachometry survey)
(b) Block level survey

Before taking up capacity survey, Lowest Bed Level (L.B.L) has to be fixed
at a lowest point on upstream side of bund line such that it is about 10m to 15m
distance from upstream toe of the bund, where capacity of tank is supposed to
be zero. Generally 1m interval contours are surveyed for minor irrigation tanks.
Number of contours to be surveyed are till the F.T.L contour of M.I. tank is
arrived.

(a) )Contour Survey:-Contour survey is taken up from a point along bund

line on left flank and picking up points of that level upstream side (i.e.,
bed side) and closing contour point on the bund line on right flank, as
shown in figure below. Again for next higher level contour the above
procedure has to be followed.

(b) Block Leveling:-If the bed side of the proposed tank is uniformly sloping
then 10mx10m block leveling can also be taken up for the entire
foreshore area of tank. After block levels, 1 meter interval contours can be
drawn by interpolation method.

Draw the survey plan of earthen bund and contours on upstream side of
bund line to scale. Work out the area of each contour enclosing to bund line.
After knowing the contour level and its area, capacity table can be prepared. The
proforma of capacity table is given below for ready reference.

a. Preparation work:
 For raising earthwork on the old embankment, care should be taken to
ensure proper bonding of the freshly laid soil with the old embankment.
Accordingly, all bushes, vegetation, root, trees etc., from the existing
portion of embankment proposed to be raised are to be removed.
 The base should be stripped to a depth of 30 Cm.
 The requisite slopes of existing embankment should be benched in steps
of 30 Cm or 45 Cm as shown in figure given below.

155
b. Placement of Earthwork and Compaction:
 Being homogeneous section, proper types of soils (GC, GM, SC, SM, CL
soils) should be used. Accordingly, representative samples of soils
proposed to be used shall be got tested. Grain size analysis for
classification should be done to know the classification of soils proposed to
be placed in the embankment. This is very important.
 Earth-fill should be laid in suitable layers not exceeding 30 cm for power
roller compaction. Clods should be broken to 7.50 cm. Any roots, grass
and rubbish material should be removed from the fill.
Cobbles/gravels/boulders of size more than 7.50 cm should also be
removed.
 In case initial water content in the soil is less than the optimum moisture
content, water should be uniformly sprinkled over the freshly laid layer
before taking up compaction.
 Compaction of earth-fill should be done by 8 – 10 Ton Power Roller. A
general acceptance criteria of minimum 95% of Proctor density at
Optimum Moisture Content (OMC) be adopted.
 Where space is not sufficient for deployment of Power Roller for
compaction, earth-fill be laid in layers of 15 cm and compacted either by
the ―fuel-operated bed compactor‖ (as illustrated in photo shown below)
or by ―pneumatic tamper‖.
 In-situ field density test of each layer should be taken.
Figure 3.2 shows sub-grade compaction using fuel-operated compactor.

before filling these with the wet mortar.
 Ensure that the wet mortar is used to fill up the joints within 30 minutes
of its mixing. Proper pointing of joints be done.
 Curing of the joints be done for 7 days.

a. Leaking through Weir:

In case the weir suffers from appreciable leakages from the body wall, it
may be appropriate to provide either external plastering or skin wall of concrete
to the upstream body wall of weir.

i) External plastering:
 Roughening of surface of body wall should be done to improve the
bond of plaster.
 The surface should be moistened sufficiently.
 Plaster of 20 cm thickness and of specified grade shall then be
applied to the surface from top and worked down. The mortar shall
be stiff enough to cling to the surface and hold when laid.
 When recommencing the work on next day, the edge of old plaster
shall be scrapped clean and wetted and treated with cement slurry.
 Water curing of plastering should be done uninterruptedly for 14
days.
ii) Concrete Skin Wall:
Provision of concrete skin wall shall provide a watertight barrier and
stop all leakages through the weir. Typical construction of thin skin wall is
illustrated in the figure. 3.3 as shown below.

OT1/ TO2/Mission Kakatiya /2015, Dt: 05-03-2015.
****
1. In the reference read above, the Chief Engineer, Minor Irrigation, TS,
Hyderabad has informed that Tanks were the main source of irrigation in
Telangana for centuries. Over a period of time, due to lack of proper
maintenance and siltation, most of these tanks have either shrunk or become
defunct. Reduced availability of surface water has resulted in over stress on the
available groundwater resources. To bring back the past glory to tank irrigation,
the Government of Telangana State have launched the ―Mission Kakatiya‖ (Mana
Ooru – Mana Cheruvu) with community participation. The State is committed to
ensure restoration of all the irrigation tanks in the next five years in a phased
manner.

2. The Chief Engineer, Minor Irrigation, TS, Hyderabad has requested the
Government to accord permission to use the rate structure, Tender procedure to
be followed and guidelines for the de-siltation of Irrigation Sources.

3. Government after careful examination of the proposal of Chief Engineer,

Minor Irrigation, TS, Hyderabad hereby accord permission for following
guidelines formulated for the benefit of all those who are involved in execution of

166
 xi. Retention Money:

The department shall retain from each payment due to the contractor @
7.5% of the bill amount until completion of the whole of the works.

II. Procedure for De-siltation:

The total quantity of silt to be excavated from the tank is to be

assessed in the first instance.
Preliminary investigation including collection of statistics regarding
tank bed level and other hydraulic particulars shall be done.
To arrive at the quantum of silt, net levels at every 15 meters interval
shall be taken in the tank bed area.
The depth of silt shall be assessed judiciously, ensuring that there will
be no depletion of tank after de-siltation, particularly in sandy / highly
permeable bed soil areas.
Trail pits up to silt depth of the tank bed upto original ground strata
may be taken at every (50 or 100) meters interval, depending upon
the size of the Tank bed.
The silt shall be got tested for acidic impurities and its suitability for
agriculture field application.
If the tank is full of water, tentative quantity shall not be proposed.
The tank shall be taken up later after depletion of water duly
assessing the actual quantities.
Pre levels must be verified by Quality Control staff before execution as
per Normal Departmental procedure.
The excavation of de-siltation bed may be in uniform gradient between
FTL contour and sluice sill level contour.
The basic rate of excavation of silt from the tank bed is Rs. 40.10 /
Cum without any lead.
Out of the total quantity of silt to be excavated, based on the site
conditions, the quantity of silt which is not useful to the farmers shall
be assessed and deposited within a distance of not more than 1 Km.
The rate for excavation and dumping within 1 Km is to be adopted as
Rs. 71.50/ Cum (40.10 + 31.40 for 1 Km lead). The above quantity is
to be included in the agreement and executed with the above rate.
Out of the balance, if the soils are suitable to be used for
strengthening of the bund the same may be proposed with a rate
structure as per IRR DAW 5-5, i.e., Rs. 141.00 / Cum including
excavation. The bed of the tank is to be used as a quarry for bund
improvement. Applicable seignorage charges are to be added.

167
 The balance silt is proposed with excavation rate only i.e. Rs. 40.10 /
Cum, assuming, farmers transport the silt to their fields at their own
cost.
The above rates shall be revised from time to time as per the
prevailing SSR.
Provision of transporting the silt to a dumping yard not more than 1
Km is to be provided in the estimate in case, the farmers do not come
forward for transportation of silt to their fields while execution of work.
This lead should not be included in the agreement. Depending on the
farmers willingness to transport silt, the situation shall be assessed for
taking further action.
If more lead is required, decision shall be taken by the competent
authority.
Suitable lands may be identified for dumping of spoil with the
involvement of local villagers.
The particulars of the Shikam submergence map to be developed by
Revenue & Irrigation Authorities and FTL contour maps are to be
prepared duly conducting net leveling and shall be made as
permanent record.
The cadastral maps along with Geo – referencing shall be prepared
for the ayacut coming under each tank.

III. Repairs to Bund, Weir & Sluices and raising of FTL:

i. Formation of Embankment:

 All the tanks shall be restored to its original FTL by raising the weir where
they are disturbed or lowered.
 The aspect of raising FTL wherever feasible economically shall be
examined in detail and proposed.
 Jungle Clearance for Bund and bed shall be provided as per necessity.
 The following procedure shall be adopted while considering raising the
FTL and foreshore patta lands, to avoid submergence and LA issues.
