Preamble

Swarnamukhi originates from Nallamalai ghats in Chandragiri (M) and runs through Chandragiri,tirupathi, Renigunta, Yerpedu and Srikalahasthi in Chittoor District. Swarnamukhi anicut system wasconstructed in the year 1956 at a cost of Rs 1932.00 lakhs.

The anicut has a main canal (Chembedu canal from head regulator) for a length of 15.4 km,covering 8.40km in Srikalahasthi and Thottambedu mandals and 7.00km in Nellore District. There is no leftcanal to this anicut. The project was constructed for providing irrigation facilities to an extent of 10,200 Acresduly feeding 46 tanks in 25villages of Buchinaidu kandriga, Thottambedu of Chittoor District and Pellakurmandal of Nellore district.

2. Araniar Project

Preamble

The Araniar Project was constructed across Araniar river in the year 1958.The Project is feeding toan ayacut of 5500 acres in Kharif and 3600 acres in Rabi season .The ayacut is classified as (a) Direct ayacut of3400 acres (b) supplementation of 2100 acres under 10 system tanks.Thisayacut is spreading in Pichatur andNagalapuram mandals of Sathyavedu constituency. The capacity of the reservoir is 1853 Mcft.

Salient Features

The capacity of the reservoir is 1853 Mcft at F.R.L of 281 feet.The total length of tank bund is 3.60KM .The reservoir has three head sluices with different sill levels for delivering the discharge to the ayacut. TheM.F.D of 30500 cusecs will be discharged through the newly constructed spill way with four vents of size 10.0



m X 5.50 m and through a natural bye wash located on extreme left flank of the reservoir.This spill way isintended to discharge the flood water.All the Radial gates are operable both with power and generator.A dieselgenerator with 50 kva capacity is also installed. Sufficient lighting arrangements are made at the site of new spillway for operation during night time.

3. Krishnapuram Project



Preamble

The Krishnapuram Project was Constructed across LAVA River near Krishnapuram Village inKarvetinagaram Mandal of Chittoor District in 1981 to provide Irrigation facilities to the ayacut to an extent of6125 Acres.

Two Irrigation Canals i.e., left main canal of 7.00 KM in length and right side canal of length 3.23KM were excavated and lined for providing irrigation facilities to the ayacut through the system tanks and alsothrough the channels in direct pertaining to the villages both in Karvetinagar & S.R. Puram mandals of ChittoorDistrict.

The total length of distributaries under left side and right side is 9.50 Kms and 6.90 Kmsrespectively, all the distributaries were lined except Chillamakulapalle distributary. Total length of field channelsunder Krishnapuram Reservoir Project: 65.50 KMs.Length executed to the end of 03/1990: 65.50 KMs. TotalAyacut Contemplated under Krishnapuram Project: 6125 Acres. There are 16 Nos of system tanks underKrishnapuram Project. Out of which 10 tanks were situated on right side and 6 tanks are situated on left side.The total ayacut served under tanks is 498 Acres Wet.

Modernisation Proposals

It is very much essential to Modernize entire canal system duly providing cc side walls with bedlining to the canals and carrying restoration works to the CM & CD Works under this project. Proposals(Estimates) costing about Rs. 275.00 Lakhs for modernization of project and canal system were submitted andworks of Worth Rs. 70 Lakhs are executed with estimate rates of 2006-07 SSR. As funds are not releasedregularly, the works have been stopped midway in incomplete state.

At Present an ayacut of 1500 Acres is only irrigated by the waters of Krishnapuram Reservoir asagainst the 6125 Acres because the Canal distribution is in dilapidated state. By reinstating the canal anddistributory system including system tanks.

The intended ayacut under the Krishnapuram Reservoir will be improved.The weakersection,SC&ST Ayacutdars/ Farmers of the villages K.P.Agraharam, Thungamitta Eguva and Diguva
