Basaveshwara Lift Irrigation Scheme by Karnataka Neeravari Nigam Ltd, Govt. of Karnataka - Compliance to the observations of Expert Appraisal Committee

proceedings held on 12.04.2017

Sl. No. Observations Compliance 1 Economic viability of the project should

be worked out based on the guidelines issued by CBIP, New Delhi, in April 2002 or so in regard to the planning and design of large lift irrigation schemes. The true cost (not subsidized) of electricity is to be considered for economic analysis.

The seminar proceedings of CBIP held in April, 2002 has been referred. Universally, CWC guidelines were adopted for design of LIS schemes in India. As per Karnataka Electricity Regulatory Commission (KERC) order dated 30.03.2016 in respect of supplying power for Lift irrigation schemes is Rs. 200 paise / unit Subject to an annual minimum of Rs. 1120 per HP / annum has been adopted for calculation of BC ratio.

2 Concept of conjunctive irrigation should also be investigated to reap its benefits for optimal water use.

Farmers will be advised / trained by CADA for conjunctive use of surface and ground water. Presently, the ground water in the command area is over exploited. Once the ground water table improves over a period of time, use of ground water will be encouraged.

3 Clearance of CWC with respect to Hydrology, Inter State Aspects as per CWC Guidelines “Submission, Appraisal and Acceptance of Irrigation and Multipurpose Projects 2017” is to be obtained.

The project is taken up with the 100% assistance of State Government within the state allocation. Hence, the project do not require clearance from CWC.

4 Data on surface water quality of all the stations should be verified once again with regards to all the seasons.

Surface water of Krishna River at Lift Point has been collected once again and subjected to analysis. The analysis results is enclosed as Annexure-1.

5 Inventorisation of flora and fauna be updated based on IUCN classification.

The IUCN classification for fishes is enclosed as Annexure-2.

6 Total requirement of power to be provided and its firm linkage to be supported with document.

Total power required for the scheme is 32440 HP (24.20 MW) and the clearance for supply of power shall be obtained from KPTCL.

7 Cost on green belt development plan to be revised and local indigenous 8 plant species to be included for development of green belt.

Cost of green belt development plan has been revised and enclosed as Annexure-3.
