2. INTRODUCTION OF THE PROJECT/ BACKGROUND INFORMATION
2.1 Identification of project
M/ s. Vidarbha Ir r igation Development Corporation, Nagpur under Water Resource
Depar tment, Government of Maharashtra has proposed the Kotgal Barrage Project for Lift
Ir r igation Scheme to ir r igate an area of 7780 Ha of Culturable Command Area (CCA) by util izing
the water from the Wainganga River near village Kotgal, Taluka & Distr ict Gadchiroli, MS. The
project involve construction of Barrage project for providing assured water availability to three
lift ing point i.e. Kotgal LIS (3294 ha CCA), Por lawasa LIS (3078 ha CCA), Gogaon LIS (408 ha
CCA) and Virgin Command (1000 ha CCA). MWRRA approval is enclosed as Annexure-1.
2.2 Brief history of the project
The Kotgal bar rage site falls in the rest of Pranhita sub basin of Godavar i Basin in Gadchiroli
distr ict. This distr ict is largely covered by forest; the percentage of forest cover to its
geographical area is 81%. As such, any storage reservoir involves forest land submergence
attracting the str ingent provision of Forest (Conservation) Act, 1980. This can be gauged from
the fact that out of the 17 sites mentioned in the tr ibunal, 14 sites are in Gadchiroli or

neighbor ing Chandrapur distr ict, but barr ing 3 projects which were constructed in pre-
independence era, all other sites except Dina project could not completed and held for forest
land clearance. To get through this problem, taking up of Lift Ir r igation Schemes is promoted.
To increase the viability of LIS proposed on the bank of r iver , it is felt necessary to construct
the barrages which will help in stabilization of these lift ir r igation schemes. The Kotgal barrage
is one amongst them.
2.3 Need for the project and its importance to the country and region.
India take up 3.29 mill ion sq. km geographical area, which forms 2.4% of the wor ld’s land area,
it supports over 15% of the wor ld’s population. India suppor ts about 1/ 6th of wor ld population,
1/ 50th of wor ld’s land and 1/ 25th of wor ld’s water resources. India also has a livestock
population of 500 mill ion, which is about 20% of the wor ld’s total livestock population. More
than half of these are cattle, forming the backbone of Indian agr iculture. The total ut ilizable
water resources of the country are assessed as 1086 km3. The gross ir r igated area is 80 mill ion
ha which gets India the pr ize for the largest amount of ir r igated agr iculture in the wor ld.
The minor irr igation is now the major source as groundwater provides 50 per cent of the gross
area under ir r igation (in fact recent data shows that in terms of net sown area, groundwater
provides 60 per cent of the net ir r igated area. Details of Ir r igated area in India are given below:

There are many regions of India with hard rock geology which have lower groundwater
potential than the alluvial plains. Since groundwater extraction is pr imar ily dr iven by the needs
of the population and the density of farmer population and not the quality of resource,
groundwater ir r igation is scaling up even in such hard rock areas causing ir reversible
depletion of the resource base.
Til l the 1990s, Finance Ministers used to say that ‘Every budget is a gamble on the monsoon’.
For more than 70 per cent of the Indian population, l iving in rural India and dependent on

SMS Envocare Limited, Pune 6
agr iculture directly or indirectly, the monsoon controlled their purchasing power year after
year . Even now, when agr iculture contr ibutes less than 20 per cent to the national economy,
more than 600 mill ion people are dependent on agr iculture for their l ivelihood. Therefore,
ir r igation infrastructure, which has the potential to insure the farmer against the vagar ies of
the monsoon and increase his income from a small (and diminishing) land holding, is the most
cr itical infrastructure for rural India.
There have been several studies which have established immense benefits of ir r igation. The
increased food secur ity of the country, increased agr iculture incomes in ir r igated areas, the
success of the green revolution, are all l inked to timely availability of water for crops not
dependent on rainfall alone. In addit ion to the direct benefits there are indirect benefits
emanating from forward and backward integration. Studies both at the village level and
regional level have shown these indirect impacts.
For every Rs. 100 of direct benefits the Bhakra dam generated 90 rupees of indirect benefits for
the regional economy and had an impact in areas even beyond the region (World Bank, 2005).
Similar ly, the impact of the green revolution in the North Arcot region of Tamil Nadu proved
that each rupee spent on ir r igation led to an additional value generation in the non-farm
economy (IFPRI, 1985). About 50 per cent of the growth in the non-farm economy was due to
agr icultural demand for inputs and marketing services and the remaining 50 per cent was
because farmers as consumers had higher purchasing power to buy more consumer and other
goods (Chambers, 1988). In fact, the provision of ir r igation improved the returns on social
sector investment as well. Returns to five years of education were 32 per cent in ir r igated
distr icts and nil in un-ir r igated distr icts (Pr itchett, 2002). Major positive impacts impact of
ir r igation on the livelihoods of the rural poor comes about through employment incomes,
secur ity against impover ishment, non-compulsive migration, and improvement in the quality
of life.
In terms of food secur ity in India, the 35 per cent ir r igated area provides more than 60 per cent
of the food production. Studies show that at the vil lage level ir r igation provides higher and
more stable employment and the poor are the major beneficiar ies. In fact, the contr ibution of
ir r igation to employment is greater than even high yielding var iet ies. The increase in value and
incomes which ir r igation provides can also be judged by two other indicators: (a) increase in
PRE-FEASIBILITY
REPORT

Maharashtra by Executive Engineer, Minor Irrigation Division, Chandrapur
SMS Envocare Limited, Pune 7
land pr ices after a rain fed area got access to ir rigation and (b) the large pr ivate investments
made by individual farmers in ground water ir r igation.
A major concern regarding the ir r igation systems, especially, that provided by large dams is
that it benefits only large farmers. In addit ion the increased income of laborers who are not
direct beneficiar ies of the ir r igation system is substantial. Besides, with the increased number
of working days, the wage rate is also likely to increase when there is provision of ir r igation.
These are great benefits, especially, for the landless that have to migrate every year to urban
areas to get employment dur ing the non-monsoon per iod leading to fragmentation of families.
Continuation on the above, proposed project located in near village Kotgal, Taluka & Distr ict
Gadchiroli, MS w ill definitely add the ir r igation capacity of the region, State and country as
whole.
2.4 Benefit of Project
This proposed project is to provide a comprehensive ir r igation solution and enable increase in
agr icultural productivity through equitable distr ibution of ir r igation water with lesser
electr ical power consumption. After visit ing the proposed project site, we have come up with a
comprehensive ir r igation solut ion suited to the local needs of the region. The objective of this
proposal is to increase the water use efficiency and thereby increases the area under
cult ivation to improve the standard of l iving of farmers. Total 7780 Ha (CCA) area is planned to
be ir r igated by the scheme.

3.6 Project description with process details
Proposed project involve construction of Concreate Bar rage across Wainganga River , at Village
Kotgal, Taluka & Distr ict Gadchiroli, MS and lift ing of water from three location i.e. Kotgal LIS
(3294 ha CCA), Por lawasa LIS (3078 ha CCA), Gogaon LIS (408 ha CCA) and Virgin Command
(1000 ha CCA).
3.7 Water Availability
In l ine with the tr ibunal provision of water allocation, it is though appropr iate to check the
water availability from the catchment of rest of Pranhita sub basin. Thus the catchment area
below Gosikhurd, Lower Chulband, It iadoh, Satti, Tultuli and Kathani on left bank flank and
Buti, Daradi and Nimbughat on r ight flank is considered for yield calculat ion. The catchment
area is 4979.18 sq. km. For calculation the weighted rainfall of above catchment, 7 rain gauge
stat ions (Armoli, Bhimkund, Bonde, Chawale, Gosikhurd, Kurkheda & Lakhandur ) well
distr ibuted in and around the catchment area are considered. The rainfall-Runoff equations
developed at Pauni G&D site for Gosikhurd Project are used for yield estimation. The post
monsoon percentages are drawn from actual observed flow pattern of Wainganga r iver at Asthi
G&D site of Central Water Commission.

The tr ibunal st ipulates the consumptive use of dr inking water use @ 20% and for industr ial
use it is 2.5 % only. It is seen that the condition for water util ization st ipulated by tr ibunal in
rest of Pranhita sub basin is satisfied and at no one place the water use is more than 1.5 TMC.
3.12 Alignment
The alignment is proposed at this location having high bank (10 m) and nar row gorge. The
width of River at this location is 750 m (RD 690 to RD 1440) with exposed sound rock in some
part of River bed.
As per planning the barrage shall have storage capacity of 59.524 Mm3 well within banks.
Hence there is almost no submergence of pr ivate land. Under this Barrage water shall be

command, dealt below in details.
3.13 Catchment Area
The gross catchment area up to the project site is 44200 sq. km. (17065.65 sq. miles) of which
14903 sq. km. lies in MP & remaining 29297 sq. km. lies in Maharashtra State. The free
catchment area considered for yield calculat ions are 4979.18 sq. km.
3.14 Flood study
The r iver has flatter gradient of 1: 2795. The designed flood is worked out by Inglis formula,
which is 25891 cumecs. However magnitude of flood is considered 1.5 t imes i.e. 38837 cumecs
value for fixing var ious controll ing levels of barrage.
The 100 years return flood calculated by Gumbel’s method is 38373 cumecs which also closely
tallies with 1.5 of Inglis flood. Thus the flood HFL for this flood is kept at RL 201.830 m.
consider ing the construction caused by 41 number of piers of said barrage the magnitude of
afflux is worked out to be 0.5 m. This way the afflux HFL is kept at RL 202.330 m. The var ious
controll ing levels fixed are as under .
3.15 Sill Level of Barrage
The Sill level of barrage is proposed at RL 188.900 m which coincides with average bed level of
the r iver . This way there shall be no silt deposit dur ing the flood as the gates shall be kept open
dur ing the flood. Also there shall be full uti l izat ion of storage.
3.16 FRL
To store maximum yield and fulfi l l the requirements, the FRL is fixed at RL 197.900 m, which is
well within the banks of River . Thus the live storage up to F.R.L. shall be 59.524 Mm3.
3.17 HFL
The HFL at bar rage site, consider ing the Designed discharged or r iver , worked out as 201.830
m.
3.18 AHFL
The AHFL calculat ions are done. Thus the afflux of 0.5 m is worked out. This way AHFL is fixed
at RL 202.330 m.
3.19 Top of Pier
Keeping from board of 1.50 m above AHFL the Top of Pier is kept at RH 203.830 m.

4.1 Godavari River Basin
The Godavar i r iver basin is formed by the r ivers and their tr ibutar ies such as Darna, Pravara,
(or iginates from Western Ghats); Sindphana, Manjara, Manar (from Balaghat Range); Purna,
Bhagwati, Dudhana (from Ajanta Range) of the Uttar Maharashtra and the Marathwada regions
as well as the r ivers like Painganga, Wardha, Pench, Wainganga, Indravati, Pranhita from the
Amravati and Nagpur regions in turns meets Godavar i r iver part ly in the State of Maharashtra,
part ly in the State of Andhra Pradesh and par tly on these State boundar ies. The basin Code
number is 3 and having an area of 302063.93 Km2.
The r iver Godavar i, the largest of the peninsular r ivers, and third largest in India, drains about
10% of India's total geographical area. The catchment area of the r iver is 3, 12,812 sq.km. and
is spread in the states of Maharashtra (48.6%), Andhra Pradesh (23.4%), Madhya Pradesh
(10.0%), Chhatt isgarh (10.9%), Or issa (5.7%) and Karnataka (1.4%). The basin lies in the
Deccan plateau and is situated between latitude 160 16' 00" North and 220 36' 00" Nor th and
longitude 730 26' 00" East and 830 07' 00" East.
The r iver Godavar i r ises at an elevation of 1,067 m in the Western Ghats near Thr iambak Hills
in the Nasik distr ict of Maharashtra. After flowing for about 1,465 km., in a generally south-east
direction, it falls into the Bay of Bengal. About 64 km. from its source, the Godavar i receives the
waters from Dharna, on its r ight bank and a shor t distance downstream the Kadana joins it
from the left. The combined waters of the Pravara and Mula which r ise in the hil ls of Akola join
the r iver from left about 217 km. from its source. About 338 km. from its source, the r iver
receives the combined waters from the Purna and Dudhna r ivers and after a fur ther 138 km. at
the border of Maharashtra and Andhra Pradesh, the waters of the Manjira r iver joins it from the
South. At this point, Godavar i flows at an elevation of about 329 m.
The r iver Pranhita, conveying the combined waters of Penganga, the Wardha and Wainganga,
which drain Nagpur and southern slopes of the Satpura ranges, falls into Godavar i about 306
km. below its confluence with the Manjira. The waters of the Indravathi join the r iver Godavar i
48 Km downstream. The last major tr ibutary is the Sabar i from Orissa, which joins the
Godavar i, 100 km. up-stream of Rajahmundry.

Wardha Sub-basin: It or iginates in Satpura Range near Multai in Madhya Pradesh. It is a
tr ibutary of the Pranhita r iver, which ult imately flows into the Godavar i River . The important
tr ibutar ies of Wardha r iver are Vena r iver, Bembala and Painganga r iver .
Wainganga Sub-basin: The Wainganga r iver , which or iginates about 12 km. from Mundara
vil lage of Seoni distr ict in the southern slopes of the Satpura Range of Madhya Pradesh, and
flows south through Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra in a very meander ing course of roughly
360 miles. After joining the Wardha, the united stream was called the Pranhita, finally empties
into the River Godavar i. The pr incipal tr ibutar ies of the Wainganga are the Garhavi, Kathani,
Khobragadi and Potphondi on the western bank and Andhar i on the eastern bank.
Painganga Sub-basin: The Painganga r iver is the major r iver of Yeotmal distr ict of
Maharashtra State. It or iginates in the Ajantha ranges in Aurangabad distr ict in Maharashtra. It
flows through Buldhana and Washim distr icts and acts as a boundary between Yavatmal and
Nanded distr icts of Maharashtra. It finally empties into Wardha r iver near a small vil lage called
Wadha in Wani Tehsil of Yavatmal distr ict.
4.2 Warda Sub-River Basin
The Wardha River is one of the biggest r ivers in Vidarbha region in India. The Wardha River
joins the Wainganga River south of Chamorshi and forms the Pranahita River at Adilabad
Distr ict, Telangana. Wardha or iginates at an altitude of 777 meters Satpura Range in village
khairwani near Multai, Betul Distr ict of Madhya Pradesh. From the or igin it flows 32 km
in Madhya Pradesh and then enters into Maharashtra. After traversing 528 km, it joins
the Wainganga forming the Pranahita, which ultimately flows into the Godavar i River. Kar,
Wena, Jam, Erai are the left tr ibutar ies and Madu, Bembla, Penganga are the r ight tr ibutar ies.
4.3 Kanhan River-Hydrology
The Kanhan River is an impor tant r ight bank tr ibutary of the Wainganga River draining a large
area lying south of Satpura range in central India. Along its 275 km run through the Indian
States of Maharashtra & Madhya Pradesh, it receives its largest tr ibutary - Pench River , a major
water source for the metropolis of Nagpur.
The Kanhan r ises on the slopes of the hil ls at the southern edge of the Satpura range to the
north of Damua, a town in Madhya Pradesh, India. The Kanhan is Wainganga's longest
tr ibutary, at 275 km. It r ises in the southern spurs of the Satpura Range in the north-western
region of Chindwara Distr ict. Flowing south from its or igin, Damua is the first town it
encounters. Here it intersects the town and allows for its flow to be controlled by means of a

dam. It then runs along a south & southeastern direction, meander ing through the countryside
of Chindwara Distr ict where it has been productively harnessed for growing Tur dal and cotton.
The r iver comes to lie about 5 km to the south of Deogarh for t where it humbly receives an
insignificant tr ibutary. Upon reaching the town of Ramakona it is crossed by a rail br idge as
well as another road br idge which supports NH-26 B. Near ly at the end of its course in Madhya
Pradesh, it is joined by Jam River, and for a short distance provides a natural boundary with
adjoining state Maharashtra.
Within Maharashtra the r iver is at its widest at Kamptee where it receives the Pench River- a
left bank tr ibutary and its largest one. Another tributary connecting it at its r ight bank is Kolar
River - the spill off from Kolar Dam. The r iver now comes to be at the northeast of Nagpur from
which it receives the metropolitan city's effluent waste by way of the Nag River. A lit tle fur ther
from Kamptee, it flows along the town Kanhan - its etymology der ived from the r iver. Situated
alongside the town is a large coal mine, one of the many coal mines situated along its r iver
basin. From here the r iver flows south-east and ends its course by joining the Wainganga at the
vil lage of Ambora in Nagpur Distr ict.
4.4 Nag River-Hydrology
The Nag River is a r iver flowing through the city of Nagpur in Maharashtra, India. It is known
for providing the etymology for the name Nagpur. Forming a par t of the Kanhan-Pench r iver
system, the Nag River or iginates in Ambazar i Lake and joins the Pili River before pour ing into
the Kanhan River .
5 GEOMORPHOLOGY
Gadchiroli distr ict is an administrative distr ict in Maharashtra, India. The town of Gadchiroli is
the administrative headquar ters of the distr ict. Gadchiroli Distr ict is situated in the south-
eastern corner of Maharashtra, and is bounded by Chandrapur Distr ict to the west, Gondia
Distr ict to the north, Chhattisgarh state to the east, and Telangana state to the south and
southwest. Gadchiroli Distr ict was created on 26 August 1982 by the separation of Gadchiroli
and Sironcha tehsils from Chandrapur Distr ict.

The major lineaments trends are NW-SE, NE-SW and NS. The NW-SE linaments are more
common and can be correlated to the trend of the Godavar i. The longer lineaments are
considered to be deep seated fractures in the crust.
A shear zone encompassing two parallel sets of lineaments has been marked trending NW-SE
near Chamorshi town. Copper Mineralisation is associated with this shear zone. Iron ore, base
metals, bar rettes, limestone, corundum, talc are some of the important economic minerals
occur r ing in the distr ict. The distr ict can be divided into six geomorphic units of structural,
denudational and fluvial or igin.
5.2 Structural Origin: Structural Hill/ Ridges
Lithologically these consist of metamorphic rocks of Archaean and Proterozoic age.
5.3 Denudational Origin: Denudational Hills, Pediments / Pediplains
Denudational hil ls are low relief hil ls mostly covered with vegetation. While Pediments are
concave surfaces developed at Junction of hills with the plains and exhibit undulating
topography and are dissected.
5.4 Fluvial Origin: Older and Younger Alluvial Plains
The Wainganga and Godawar i have developed extensive alluvial deposits along their courses.
The older alluvial plain is a flat sur face of large aer ial extent gently sloping towards these r ivers
and representing an ear lier cycle of deposition. The unconsolidated mater ial in this unit
consists of sand silt and kankar with thickness as high as 30 m. The younger alluvial unit
represents a later cycle of deposit ion.
Geologically the distr ict contains almost all geological formations except Deccan Trap. The
distr ibution of geological formation can be descr ibed in the following table.

The main r iver basin of the distr ict is the Godavar i, which flows west to east and forms the
southern boundary of the distr ict. The major tr ibutar ies of the Godavar i are the Indravati and
the Pranhita, which is in turn formed by the confluence of the Wainganga and the Wardha near
Chaprala village of Chamorshi Taluka.
Dhanora, Etapalli, Aher i and Sironcha talukas in the eastern par t of the distr ict are covered by
forest. Hills are found in Bhamragad, Tipagad, Palasgad and Sur jagad area. The eastern par t of
Gadchiroli is mainly hilly area.

12 ANALYSIS OF PROPOSAL (FINAL RECOMMENDATIONS)
Benefit Cost Ratio of the scheme worked up to be 2:27. It is satisfies the cr iter ia laid down
for feasibility of medium and minor projects.
The scheme is considered to improve Socio-economic condit ion of the people by providing
ir r igation.
People under command area mainly backward due to lack of ir r igation assurance. To br ing
them in flow of national development, the scheme is recommended for approval.
It is expected that the construction of the project would take about four years. However, the
ir r igation will star t immediately after the completion of the project. On completion of the
project, the un-ir r igated land will have assured water supply and thus the project will br ing
the prosper ity to the population under the command. The food productions with the new
high yields var ieties of crops will r ise and the cult ivators will have good financial return in
the course of time.
Project shall create direct & indirect employment opportunit ies to the people residing at
surrounding region. Different types of people will be recruited for proposed unit based on
the basic qualification as skilled, unskilled or semiskilled. As the project needs good amount
of workforce of non-technical and technical nature, they are being made available from the
nearby villages. Migration of highly education and skil led exper ience people will result in
increase of literacy in the sur rounding vil lages. Project will also enhance the prospects of
employment to the nearby people.
