Project Detail:
The renovation and modernization of the Grand Anicut Canal System (GACS) will be carried out through various interventions including lining the bed and side walls of the canal, repair / replacement of the water regulating structures, de-silting the tanks, and introduction of canal automation system. These interventions are expected to result in increased conveyance efficiency thereby increasing land under irrigation in the region and ensure equitable distribution of water to farmers based on the need (through the automation system) resulting in sustainable agricultural practices. The renovated canal is expected to be much more resilient to the impacts of climate change thereby reducing the instances of canal breaches and flooding of the towns and villages in the Cauvery Delta region.
Total Project Cost: 329 Million
