Programmes and Activities:

The water resources of the State have been assessed at 8,570 MCM by the Central

Water Commission (CWC). However, due to topographical, geological and other constraints

the level of utilization of water resources is expected to be about 1,465 MCM (1,125 MCM

surface + 340 MCM ground water). An estimated 89,660 ha of agricultural area can be brought

under irrigation as indicated in the Master Plan of the State Water Resources, out of which

82,260 ha will be by surface water and 7,400 ha by ground water.

It is estimated that the State’s total water requirement by 2051 A.D. could be about

8,030 MCM. As against this requirement, the total surface water resources that can be

conserved is projected as 1,585 MCM. The Central Ground Water Board (CGWB), in their

report on ‘Dynamic Ground Water Resources of Goa State – March 2011, has estimated the

available ground water sources in the State as 145.43 mcm and the gross annual draft is 41.14

mcm. The stage of ground water development is 28%. Hence Goa is safe from ground water

development point of view.

Two Panels of Experts have prepared Master Plans for use of water resources of 4 river

basins in the State viz. Mandovi, Zuari, Talpona and Galgibag covering about 77% of the

geographical area of the State. Feasibility studies of the water development projects identified

in the Master Plans have been initiated in a phased manner. These projects have been accorded

priority in view of the flourishing tourism industry and the increasing domestic and industrial

water supply needs of the State up-to 2051. However, some of the projects are facing delays in

implementation for reasons such as the reservoir area, dams/canal area required for construction

purpose falling in wild life sanctuaries, reserved forest areas, areas resembling forests in nature

etc. Efforts are being made to obtain the required clearances from the competent authorities.

The break-up of the total budget for water resources during the years 2016-17 and 2017-

18 is as under:

The total irrigation potential created under major and medium irrigation is 35,548 ha

(ultimate) including 486 ha created during 2016-17. A target of 197.00 ha of potential creation

is fixed for the year 2017-18.

1. Salaulim Irrigation Project

The Salaulim Irrigation Project is located on river Guleli, a tributary of river Zuari in

Sanguem Taluka, South Goa District. The project was completed in May 2007 and a total

irrigation potential of 9,538 Ha (CCA) i.e. 14,106 Ha (Ultimate) has been created. The project

caters to the irrigation needs of Sanguem, Quepem and Salcete Talukas. In addition, the scheme

also provides water for domestic and industrial use to Mormugao, Sanguem, Quepem and

Salcete Talukas to the extent of 160 MLD. Permission has also been granted to the PWD for

use of 220 MLD of water over and above the present utilization of 160 MLD for expansion of

the Salaulim water supply scheme. Beginning about February, when the overflow over the Opa

weir of the Opa Water Works on the Khandepar river ceases, 50 MLD water is transferred by

pumping from the Salaulim main canal to Kalay river, a tributary of the Khandepar to make up

the shortage of water at Opa. The pumping continues till the arrival of the monsoons. The

Salaulim project is being operated successfully with 28 Water Users’ Associations having been

formed in the command to take over the charge of water distribution networks. Funds are

proposed towards maintenance, modernization and strengthening of the entire canal system (in

phases) to restore efficiency and ensure better irrigation coverage.

Improvement and Re-lining to SIP main canal from Ch.3.100 kms to 4.100 kms,

Ch.4.100 kms to 5.170 kms and Ch.10.10 kms to 11.10 kms in Sanguem Taluka is in process.

The works proposed are foundation exploration for proposed construction of jackwell

for Naikaband at Vaddem Rehabilitation site in Sanguem Taluka at Rs.711.00 lakhs, providing

and laying parallel 500 mm dia ductile iron pipeline for gravity main from Tank No.II at Lift

Irrigation Scheme Naikaband, Vaddem Rehabilitation Site at Rs.131.00 lakh.



The SIP rehabilitation programme for the Project Affected People (PAP) is almost

complete with provision of all basic amenities. Based on initial surveys the number of project

affected families had been determined as 643 nos. Out of these identified PAP families, 552

nos. of families opted for the rehabilitation facilities offered by the Government. They were

rehabilitated at two rehabilitation sites at Vaddem and Valkinim in Sanguem taluka - 412 nos.

of families at Vaddem and 140 nos. at Valkinim. Out of the remaining 91 nos. of families that

did not opt for rehabilitation, 19 nos. were weeded out as being families whose names had got

repeated or who had already availed rehabilitation facilities. The claims for rehabilitation

facilities of the remaining 72 nos. of PAP families were being considered by a Sub-Committee

set up by the Government on the recommendation of the Rehabilitation Committee and have

been allotted a plot of 400 sq.mtr for housing purpose.

When the reservoir was filled to capacity, agricultural plots allotted to PAPs at Vaddem

were found to fall under partial or full submergence. Several measures have been instituted to

compensate these PAPs for their loss. One of these is the payment of a one-time cash

compensation of Rs.4.00 lakh in lieu of the one Ha agricultural plot as a full and final

settlement. Orders have been issued for payment of the compensation to 90 PAPs, among

whom 81 have already been paid the compensation. Claims of the remaining 9 PAPs were

pending for want of proper documents.

1. Flood Control

In order to minimize the adverse impact of floods in highly susceptible areas of the

State during the monsoons, flood protection and preventive measures are being implemented

for protection of property, life and crops. These include strengthening, heightening and 23

improvement of existing flood protection bunds, de-silting and improvement of water ways of

the nallahs, construction of flood embankments, concrete retaining walls, installation of pump

sets at critical locations to evacuate the flood waters so as to control and regulate the water

levels, widening of the rivers at bottlenecks, regulation of discharge through reservoirs etc.

The warning levels and high flood levels/ danger levels on all the main rivers and its

tributaries during the monsoons have been marked to monitor the flood situation in highly

prone areas like Sanquelim, Bicholim, Ponda and Cuncolim to ensure that flooding does not

pose danger to life and property. Besides, flood forecasting and warning services like sirens

and lighting masts are installed at crucial locations such as Sanquelim and Bicholim to warn the

residents of impending floods. During 2017-18, it is also proposed to implement flood

protection measures for a length of 3.000 km.



ii) Anti Landslide Measures

An amount of Rs.50.00 lakh is earmarked for implementing anti-landslide measures.



iii) Anti-Sea-Erosion Works

Goa has a long coastline admeasuring 105 kms from Terakol in Pernem, North Goa, to

Polem in Canacona, South Goa. About 25.02 kms of Goa’s coastline is severely affected by sea

erosion especially the beaches in Pernem, Bardez, Tiswadi, Quepem, Canacona and Salcete

talukas. Out of the affected length, a length of 7.180 Kms is critically damaged.

In order to tackle this problem, the State is implementing a number of anti-sea erosion

measures like stepped sea walls, concrete blocks, revetments, dykes, earthen embankments/

sand bag embankments, rubble wall protected by geo-grid nets, rubble mounds, tetrapods,

rubble sausages, concrete/ granite blocks, sloping apron walls, gabions and use of geo-tubes etc 24

to reduce damages along the seashore in the affected areas. Based on the recommendations of

the Central Water Power and Research Station (CWPRS) Pune, and considering the site

specific conditions of waves, bathometry, currents, beach profile etc., the Government is

implementing remedial anti-sea erosion measures in a phased manner.

During the year 2016-17, anti-erosion works have been taken up and a length of 1.091

km has been covered during the year. It is proposed to protect a length of 0.800 km. during

2017-18.

Under Goa’s Golden Jubilee package for anti-sea erosion and beach nourishment,

proposals have been prepared for protecting about 7.18 Kms of affected coastline involving a

financial outlay of about Rs.85.67 crore with recommendations from Central Water and Power

Research Station, Kadakwasla. During the period from 2012 to 2017, an amount of Rs.

2,912.17 lakh has been utilized to take up works of urgent nature to protect a stretch of 2.50

km. of coastline in Keri (Pernem), Anjuna (Bardez) and Candolim (Bardez).



iv) Drainage

Various measures are adopted to improve the drainage system in the State by removing

congestion from the rivers and nallahs by desilting, river training, etc. not only in the coastal

belts but also in urban areas which get flooded due to congestion of the drains particularly

during the monsoons. Outlay is proposed to take up construction, extension, covering of

nallahs, land acquisition for improvement of nallahs, development and desilting of nallahs,

maintenance, repairs and renovations of retaining walls of nallahs, removal of drainage

congestion etc. in a phased manner and on a mission mode. During the year 2016-17,

25

improvement works have been implemented for a length of 3.831 km. and a target of 4.200 km.

is fixed for the year 2017-18.

V. INTEGRATED HILL AREA DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME (WESTERN GHATS

DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME)

Sattari, Sanguem, Dharbondora and Canacona are the 4 talukas covered under WGDP

in Goa comprising 46% of the total area of the State. The total area of these 4 talukas is

1,678.32 sq. kms of which the cultivable area is 398.11 sq. kms. All minor irrigation works

implemented under this sector are executed under the budget heads 2551 - Revenue & 4551 –

Capital Outlays.

Appropriate planning of irrigation infrastructure is essential to improve the economic

status of the farming community of these hill areas. Hence, minor irrigation schemes with

smaller gestation period are adopted to ensure regular irrigation for the farming community to

optimize their agricultural production.

Schemes such as open wells, bore wells and tube wells are taken up under Ground Water

by tapping water from the ground aquifers and lifting the same to the surface by providing

pumps. Schemes such as tanks, bandharas, canals and lift irrigation are implemented under

Surface Water. Bandharas are constructed across flowing nallahs and rivulets to create

additional irrigation potential. They also help improve the perennial springs by creating storage

on the up-streams. Distribution of water to the fields is also improved by providing half round

pipe canals. Under lift irrigation schemes (LIS), water is lifted from the existing surface sources

such as rivulets/nallahs and distributed through canal networks. Total irrigation potential created

is 4,224 ha of which 5 ha have been created during 2016-17. Irrigation potential of 16 ha is

expected to be created during 2017-18.26
